📌 what helps (no context necessary) 📌
Everyone asks “how do you stay on track” — here’s how. Take what fits. Ignore the rest.
1. Delay the decision.
Set a 30-minute timer. If it still matters after, fine. But most things don’t survive the wait.
2. Log everything.
You forget less when it’s in writing. Numbers > feelings.
3. Use small utensils.
Takes longer. Feels like more. Slows everything down.
4. Ice water. Always.
Cold = alert. Also makes the other thoughts quieter.
5. Mint > sugar.
If you want something sweet, go sharp instead. Gum, tea, oil, whatever.
6. Clean first.
Before anything else, tidy. It helps recalibrate.
7. Stand when you can.
Passive movement still counts. Don’t sit unless you’re earning it.
8. Plan out loud.
Even if no one’s there, narrate the plan. Hearing it makes it real.
9. Brush your teeth.
Twice minimum. It resets the mouth. You’ll want less.
10. Delay “first intake” as long as possible.
Once it starts, it gets harder to stop.
11. Track progress obsessively.
Whatever method works. Spreadsheets, apps, photos, stickers, scratches on the wall. Doesn’t matter.
12. Black coffee is a tool.
Bitter, hot, zero. Enough said.
13. Cut things small.
Visually it tricks the brain. Looks like more. Feels like less commitment.
14. Repetition = safety.
Same meals. Same outfits. Same schedule. Predictability keeps you in control.
15. Stay cold.
Blankets are earned. Heat is a reward.
16. Pick a uniform.
Avoid mirrors, avoid choices. Choose once, then stop choosing.
17. Never eat directly from packaging.
It’s chaos. Use a plate. Use a scale. Use a rule.
18. Save pictures.
Visual reminders of why. Make it a folder. Scroll through it when your brain gets loud.
19. Say no out loud.
Even if it’s just to the fridge. Out-loud “no” works better than silent guilt.
20. Delay. Again. Always delay.
Craving = momentary. Control = permanent.
21. Use liquids to kill time.
Tea. Water. Sparkling stuff. Sip constantly.
22. Keep your hands busy.
Paint nails. Fold clothes. Shred receipts. Idle hands spiral fast.
23. Don’t trust your mood.
Mood lies. Mood passes. Stick to the system.
24. Sleep earlier to avoid noise.
Late night = weak decisions. Just go to sleep. You don’t need that hour.
25. Check the stats.
Weigh in. Take notes. Keep score. It keeps you aware.
26. Routines over feelings.
How you feel doesn’t change what needs to be done.
27. Reward with non-food.
Playlist, candle, bath, nap, photo. But never what you actually want.
28. Watch people you want to be like.
Consume their content. Learn their habits. Copy until it sticks.
29. Replace "I'm hungry" with "I'm bored."
One’s real. One isn’t. You know which one wins.
30. Don’t keep “options.”
If it’s not in your space, it can’t tempt you.
31. No “just a bite.”
You know how that ends. Don’t start it.
32. Pause. Then pause again.
The second pause is where your power is.
📁 Reblog to keep this where you can find it.
💌 DM open if you want to swap more tips quietly.

WAIT. Reverse Robin AU, but let's fuck everything up.
Damian is the oldest. He was conceived during Bruce's training arc. Talia found out she was pregnant and ghosted the hell out of Bruce near the start of the arc. Thus, Bruce was dealing with his bad breakup for eight or so years, comes home, takes a year to become Batman, and then a ten year old kid shows up on his doorstep a year later. A highly trained child that has some whacky notions about training/combat that also knows how to escape :) So, yeah. Kid becomes a little vigilante. He has some super friends but isn't really on a team (Jon, Colin, Flatline, Maps, etc). Through Bruce's dedicated reparenting, he grows up to want to be a vet instead.
Duke still met Bruce during Year Zero at the age of six. When Damian is seventeen, Duke's parents go missing (fuck the Joker, let's blame any other rogue for this). There's civil disorder as well, partly caused by Damian quitting and Bruce being sad about it (which good for Damian. Go chase your dreams). Bruce stumbles upon 13 year old Duke, realizes the kid is kind of an orphan who also has meta powers that he won't stop using to be a dangerously untrained vigilante, and thus yanks him into fostering. When he's 15, his mom is found, saved, and healed enough for Duke to move back in with her. Duke eventually moves to the day shift when he's 16.
Steph gets recruited by Duke! She's still Spoiler and even forms the first teen superhero group (with Anita, Cissie, Cassie, Greta, and Kon). She lives with her mom and is the one to encourage Bruce to make connections to other heroes. She's civilian friends with Tim. At age sixteen, she "dies." It's a fake death, but nobody else knows this except Tim. This causes massive ripples in the superhero community, Gotham, and the Bats.
Tim... Doesn't actually join the batfam at first :D There's no flying grayson, but he did figure out their identities. He thinks they're cool, but not to the hero level worship of canon. He knows Steph is Spoiler. His parents still die and whatnot, but Tim pulls an Uncle Eddie. He used his rich boy money to train a bit, even ran into Lady Shiva when he was abroad trying to save his parents, but he isn't a practicing vigilante (and thus currently not physically great). Instead, he uses his computer skills to subtly aid Steph/the Bats. Bart ends up seeking him out (future knowledge), so they start working together as a team (with Bart in-field but not in Gotham). When he's 17, Steph dies/goes missing. Thus, Bart and Tim end up on a StephQuest (because nobody believes stranger!Tim who has no actual proof) [which ends up training Tim to be a great vigilante].
Jason gets yoinked from the streets post-Steph's "death" at 13. Bruce is feeling massive guilty/depressed that one of his charges/unofficial children died. Jason, who found a really neat home with a library and also has experience with struggling parents, unfortunately helps coax Bruce out of his spiral while also signing himself up for becoming a vigilante. Jason has his own team of superheros and stuff. Steph comes back about a year into his vigilantism (so when he's fourteen or so).
Cass shows up in Gotham after Steph gets back. She gets adopted and becomes/starts Batgirl.
Dick's parents die when he's nine, thus when Jason is fifteen.

Underrated JayVik moments/lines (11/∞)
Tumblr media
[The crystal being set on the inside of Jayce's wrist.]
...as opposed to the outside, where you'd normally expect to see the jewel of a wristband like this. It's a simple fact that still carries so much weight:
Of course, one thing it signifies is simply how it's not for show, not an adornment, but instead something deeply personal to Jayce.
Beyond that, however, there is just something so symbolic about keeping a memento directly on top of your veins like this. Where you might feel for a pulse, or - you know - cut in order to end your life (Jayce's suicide attempt just so happens to be the only time he takes it off, too - he doesn't even take it off during sex).
And while it's not something I noticed consciously for the longest time, everytime Jayce rubs his thumb over the crystal, as he so often does... he is inadvertently also baring his wrist and tracing his lifeblood; his heart, his "whole life".
Jayce is quite literally carrying the stone, the beauty and the dreams it represents cased in gold and close to his heart.
And I don't know about you, but I can just never get over how - even though he won't know it for many years - what this gem really is at the end of the day, is the bond Jayce shares with Viktor across time and space made manifest. Given to him by Viktor in order to set them on their path to each other.
At which point, when Jayce does find out, it is then fully embedded into his body and his very essence; to be - at long last - dug out of his veins, gifted to and shared with his own Viktor during their final moments.
Tumblr media
I don't know, man... the layers of symbolism with these two sometimes actually makes it more difficult to write these posts because there is just so much to consider. For instance, in this topic alone we have:
The crystal representing the mage who saved him,
who is also Viktor,
but also representing Jayce's dreams of bringing the magic that the mage i.e. Viktor brought to his life to the world,
those dreams being Jayce's "whole life"
and something of which he is immediately eager to share ownership with Viktor
after Viktor validated those dreams by returning the wristband to Jayce,
being the only other person to have held said wristband,
which in itself is again a symbol of their bond,
and -
You see the issue here? I feel like I can never truly get to the bottom of every facet I want to talk about in any of these posts (while still remaining coherent, that is).
Then again, I guess all that really means is that you are cordially invited to dig deeper if you wish to.

Ranking every manhwa villainess and white lotus I could find.
Keep in mind these are all opinion based.
#22: At the very bottom of the list is Sumin Jeong from Marry my husband
Tumblr media
Now, like almost everyone else on this list, Sumin is kept a level that is below the FL Jiwon so she can never best the hero. However unlike the others here, Sumin has not once been shown to be anything other than a dumb and evil bimbo who talks like elmo even before Jiwon regressed, her reasons for wanting everything Jiwon has make no sense and she has no flavor to her, no backstory that makes sense, no real charm since it's lost as soon as possible, all she has going for her is a distinct design.
#21: Charlotte-the villainess maker
Tumblr media
Honestly, Charlotte is about as forgettable as the comic she's from. She doesn't do much, just basic bland white lotus tropes over and over. She is portrayed as a sweet heart but she's secretly a jealous vindictive mean girl, she loses everything to the FL because she's too basic for the not-like-other-girls readers, nothing really revolutionary about her, but this could be chalked up to the story shes from canonically being an abysmal mess written by the FL when she was 14, Sorry Charlotte.
#20: Iris Van Conrad-Today the villainess has fun again.
Tumblr media
A step up from Sumin when it comes to backstories, still not the greatest but it makes a little more sense. She's more passive aggressive since her actual plots are destoryed in nanoseconds by the plot, she gets dunked on so much I wonder if she's supposed to the Villainess or a discount Meg Griffin. Considering the fact to that Reilynn is pedo coded, Iris is less of the two evils.
#19: Aisha Selir-divorcing my tyrant husband.
Tumblr media
Shes okay, But like Charlotte, Aisha isn't very noteworthy, as usual, any attempts she makes to best or outsmart Robelia are met with utter failure, she could be something really great if she were just allowed to make a mark on the plot. Like actually have Alexandros take responsibility instead of blaming her for her existence. Her design before the art shift was pretty enough and I'm pretty sure she's being possessed by a vindictive soul so that might explain why Aisha suddenly became a villain when she's described as being dainty, sweet, and a general damsel and saintess in the story within DMTH.
18: Fonta Magnus:the tyrants only perfumer
Tumblr media
Fonta is the type of antagonist that would be adored as a isekaied protagonist. She doesn't really do much though since she gets defeated over and over with the same plan of copying Ariels ideas (how original, no pun intended) I like her though just because her design reminds me of cartoon goth girls, specially Gwen from total drama island.
#17: Benela Verdi- the princesses jewels
Tumblr media
I don't care if she seduced Ariannas father or killed her brother, Arianna was out there acting like she wouldn't do the same just to get with a sexy man. Benela may suffer from the same problems every other villainess does but if ranked them based on that then almost all of them would be on the bottom. This image of her drinking her stress away is accurate to how I felt reading this one.
#16: Claudine von Brandt-Cry or better yet beg
Tumblr media
I absolutely adore Claudine and she's not really a villain but unfortunately the narrative says she's a so she'll have to count. It's why she's this low since she's just a woman who gets in the way of the main ship
As you can probably guess, her only crimes are being condescending to Layla and valuing superficial values such as wealth and status, crimes that somehow make her worse than Matthias in the narratives eyes. Justice for my girl Claudine ✊️
now we are moving up to the middle tier
#15: Diana-for my derelict favorite
Tumblr media
This girl has more protagonist material then Hestia ever will. Sorry but Hestias entire thing is just being a rich girlboss, simping for Cael and damning any woman who broke his heart including Diana, who is the saintess that opposes murder, Wow! Who would have guessed that the saintess woman wouldn't endorse literal murder! Could she have communicated better? Yes, was she always in the right? Hell no. But she's got more character in her pinky toe then everyone else in their entire bodies to I salute to her.
#14: Irene/Aileen Hascator- I didn't mean to seduce the male lead
Tumblr media
I have a weird relationship with her. One minute I'm impressed because she actually does manipulation pretty well at first with making the lives of those who won't swear loyalty her unbearable in very smart ways, she'll buy all her friends expensive dresses so she can stand out in a simpler one, she'll defend the black sheep and make her into her friend to keep up her sweetheart facade, unfortunately it's all so she can get with a boy where she goes nuts on anyone who gets near him.
#13: Freya van Furiana- how to get my husband on my side
Tumblr media
I really loved this manhwa, almost all of the characters are complex and 3 dimensional with a great commentary on abuse, ED, and family dynamics, with that said I was a little disappointed seeing Freya as another basic white lotus who only wants Izek for herself, it won't take much even a little more character traits would help because Freya isn't just some random girl who became the ogfl, she was the childhood friend of Izek and Ellen, so we should've gotten to see a little more too her then what we got
#12: Mielle Roscente- the villainess turns the hourglass.
Tumblr media
Beautiful design, basic but rather solid goals, a charming personality, Mielle has all of that in the bag. She secretly wants Aria and her mother out of her life since they aren't of noble blood (before the terrible Arias a noble plot twist) and she's really entertaining. However I'll never understand how she managed to destroy Aria in the first timeline if she's such an idiot now. The first timeline also takes the blame off of Arias shitty actions with "Mielle tricked her into being evil!" It ruins the charm since Aria, as a villainess should be allowed to suffer the consequences while not wanting to quit.. since you know, she's not meant to be a good person.
#11: Isabella de Mare-sister I am the queen in this life
NOT YOU!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
THIS is the Isabella I'm talking about
Absolute genius, she knows that Ceasre is a bastard and not just in the literal sense, she doesn't even love him and just wants that sweet sweet power and wealth. Fooled Ariande for years that she was on her side and as a bonus she can easily say she wanted revenge for Alfonso to the public if they ever found out she was behind it all. But the best part about first timeline Isabella is her villain monolog that women mean nothing to men, putting your life in their hands is a fatal mistake and if you want to make it to the top, you gotta crush the opponents. But alas we never see this version of Isabella after Ariande goes back in time
Higher tier now, the best of the best who managed to make it this far
#10: Rhyse/Lise Sinclair- not your typical reincarnation story
Tumblr media
Yeah shes technically being controlled by the author or hell maybe she is the author I have yet to finish this one but for once we get a comic that doesn't immediately pit two women against eachother and actually gives a solid reason for her to be at odds with Edith. When something doesn't go her way, Rhyse doesn't throw a fit and turn on the water works no no no. She stands there, awkwardly, almost like the real Rhyse is wondering why she feels so jealous and angry with Edith for stealing the spotlight. She's incredibly ominous too when that purple mist surrounds her to force the other characters back into place. All while she's making friends with Edith in a possibly geninue friendship.
#9: Isis Frederick- the villainess reverses the hourglass
Tumblr media
I'm pretty sure most of us can agree she's the real villain of TVRTHG since she basically started and encouraged the whole operation to begin with from afar, the puppeteer if you will. Killer design, a great fear factor and an evil sister done better. Wish she had more time to shine.
#8: Diane Poitier- I abdicate my title as empress
Tumblr media
What already sets her apart from other evil concubines is that she was there before Adelaide so her reasons for being upset that another woman is showing up to marry the Emperor is reasonable, obviously her actions aren't but I still felt bad for her since no one in that palace gave a damn about her, Diane got ruthlessly belittled and ignored for not being useful to their liking or simply being too desperate and when Adelaide tries to not make an enemy out of her, Diane is looking for anyone to direct her anger on but the redemption arc as short as it is, makes up for it.
#7: Leila- villains are destined to die
Tumblr media
My favorite ogfl turned villain. Leila is pure evil no questions asked. She steals the body of Yvonne which played a part in taking the latters reputation to a degree in the fandom and starts brainwashing everyone around her. That's what makes her so terrifying, one minute you could be at your highest and you feel like you rule the world, and next minute it all comes crashing down when the face of your long lost sibling arrives with fake tears in her eyes, ready to destroy everything you hold dear.
#6: Soleia Elard- seducing the villains father
Tumblr media
I can't believe I'm saying this but a classic black magic witch is a unique villain in the manhwa world. During her introduction she's already causing mayhem by trying to kill Yerenica with black magic, and at first you'd think she's another "I want my hubbies affection!" Chick but no, she just wants to marry Erudian to have his child and use said child to avenge her family and destroy everything, characters are all frightened by her because she actually gets shit done instead of failing every minute of the day, and even after all that, she's allowed the privilege of life by getting a redemption arc.
#5: Cosette Weinberg- I was the real one.
Tumblr media
She deserved so much better!! 😭 Cosette, my baby, you were set up to be such an amazing villain with high intelligence and well thought out plans, why did they have to give you the good old plot induced lobotomy! Girly wasn't just smart but there were actually times I could get behind Cosette. When Keira gave a maid 100 lashes after she insulted and wished death on Keira, it was Cosette who took advantage of an actual truth with only a little bit of exaggeration, they were both evil but only one of them was rightfully called out for it. Honestly just read the novel, the manhwa did it dirty.
#4: Marianne Edenverre- into the light again.
Tumblr media
Nah someone get this baby to a church and give her the aggressive baptism 10 times over, I'll always be wondering how the hell did that 10 year old get her hands on a demon in the first place, the fact that the family never found her hiding behind a door or closet staring into their soul like a paralysis demon is surprising cause I imagine she would do that and be like "it's just me sillies, I would never mean to scare you 😛" she's a well written villainess who I wish would have a little bit more screentime but her powers and what she can do honestly confuses me (like that whole body-swap thing)
Final 3 everybody, you ready for this?
#🥉: the 3rd place medal goes to Dodolea Castor from My in laws are obsessed with me
Tumblr media
Another real villainess, putting everyone off guard with her initial gacha life brat persona only to be hit in the face with disturbing levels of cruelty that can only match a psychopath, she looks straight out of an uncanny mr incredible meme with that light skin stare shes got. Straight up laughs at Therdeos trauma while being well aware that she tried to SA him and how it affected the poor guy and later proceeds to attempt to kill and later kidnaps his wife. There's no remorse, no regrets, just the souls of innocents behind those huge eyes.
#🥈 : the second place medal goes to Verta Alberhart from depths of malice.
Tumblr media
She isn't even the antagonist, no that's the protagonist! And honestly, the only white lotus in the main lead spot I've ever read so far. And while she has a messed up backstory that explains why she's so bitter, she still full on embraces it. Vertas way of being granted a second chance isn't even because of some goddess or divine power, she just snatches the body of a suicidal noblewoman and wreaks havoc on all of the disgusting noblemen in her path. She cries on the court trial of her fiances murder while secretly laughing knowing she set the whole thing up and slowly ruins the life of anyone who fucked around and found out.
At long last, we reached #🏅, and the crown goes to none other than...
Rashta Ishka from the remarried empress!
Tumblr media
Hear me out now, this isn't just me being biased. Rashta earns first place because even though she is rendered an idiot who's only use is being worse so everyone else can look good, she still managed to do something unfathomable. She earned the respect of a fandom that initially hated her with all the fiber of their being and now she has a growing fanbase of real people, not fictional characters, actual fans. People are literally turning on one of the most popular manhwas that started it all for its treatment of Rashta (because who would guess that people are uncomfortable with the fact that a former slave is the ultimate evil and not the guy who tortures people just for shit talking the FL) and even though there is still a big part of the fandom who despises her, she still lives in everyone's head rent free. The trashta meme is more well known than Navier as a character and her character arc will always be superior and far more interesting than everything else in the story, after all remarried empress did start to decline after her death.
Jesus christ this took so long, I had to do so much rereading and fact checking but it was worth it.

Canada’s First Trans Healthcare Ban
Alberta’s anti-trans bills have dropped. A few observations. 🧵
The first thing I notice, and which is cause for hope, is that the bills do not invoke the notwithstanding clause. They can thus be challenged in Court, and struck down as unconstitutional. 
The healthcare ban is worse than they announced, at least in its present form. They ban all gender-affirming surgeries until 18, as expected. They also ban puberty blockers and hormones for minors. So far, the same as we expected. 
However, the bill is set up so that the ban is total for all minors *unless* the Minister creates an exception for some. This means that even 16-17 year olds whose parents consent cannot receive puberty blockers or hormones. They may plan to allow it, but it’s not in the law. 
There is also no clause that allows youth who are alreadyon puberty blockers or hormones to continue. This is especially concerning because it means they’ll lose access if there’s any delay with planned Ministerial orders—if they even plan to make an order. 
Unsurprisingly, it seems that the law wasn’t drafted by someone who is knowledgeable about trans realities. As a result, transition-related surgeries are defined as those that “treat gender dysphoria or gender incongruence.” 
While the loophole is unlikely to work, a literal reading would allow transition-related surgeries that are motivated by gender euphoria, framed as cosmetic, or understood through a depathologizing lens. The fact slightly amuses me, but again it’s unlikely to actually help. 
The name and pronouns policy is as expected. Trans minors will be forcibly outed to their parents if they request a change of name or pronouns that is related in some way to their gender identity. Parental consent isn’t required for those aged 16-17, but they still get outed. 
There is no exception to the outing requirement, even if it poses a grave risk. All it says is that schoolboards must give counselling or other assistance before outing the kids, in such a case. 
This creates a small loophope—willing schools could delay outing for some time and argue that it still respects the law. However, they still can’t respect under-16 trans youth’s name or pronouns without parental consent, and they must still out them eventually. 
If the law is applied negligently or unreasonably, and a child ends up seriously hurt or dead? Too bad—the law strongly protects people from liability if they believe they’re applying the law and are doing so in good faith. 
For an overview of why these rules are dangerous and unconstitutional, here is my recent Alberta Law Review article on the topic:
How about sexual education? Well, it’s basically dead. The law makes it mandatory for schools to receive Ministerial approval for any material primarily and explicitly related to gender identity, sexual orientation, or human sexuality. 
In addition to the material needing approval, any third-party who delivers the material must be separately approved by the Minister. 
Even if the material is approved, teachers must (a) notify parents at least 30 (!) before teaching it, and (b) ensure alternative instruction for students whose parents didn’t consent. 
This isn’t really an opt-in system. While it’s superficially opt-in, the requirements are so absurdly onerous that nobody will teach materials related to gender identity, sexual orientation, or human sexuality.
It’s as simple as that—sexual education is dead in Alberta. 
The only small comfort is that only regulating materials “primarily and explicitly” about these topics could serve as a good loophole for rebellious teachers. Incidental and indirect discussions of gender identity, sexual orientation, and human sexuality are expressly allowed. 
Lastly, the sports ban. To my surprise, there’s actually no ban on trans women in sports. One less thing on my plate!
Now there is indeed a law about sports, it just doesn’t quite reach the level of a ban. Instead, the bill tells schools and sports bodies to create a policy on fairness and safety in sports, including eligibity requirements and procedures for verifying eligiblity. 
The law also creates a mandatory reporting mechanism for any complaints related to that policy or to (more or less) trans inclusion in sports. This is unsurprisingly hypocritical—conservatives love surveillance states as much as they love to complain about ‘big government.’ 
This bill doesn’t so much ban trans women from sports as provide a cover for any organization that wants to do so. That they should ban trans people is a thinly-veiled subtext, but it’s legally-speaking only a subtext. 
The law also includes broad protection from liability for mostly anyone—including sports participants—who is trying to implement the act ‘in good faith.’ If racists decide to harass a Black woman and claim that she’s not a woman, as we have seen all-too-often in elite sports? If an adult decides to do ‘genital verifications’ on a child? They’re effectively protected from civil liability, so long as they claim it’s in good faith. Scary stuff...
That’s a wrap, but I’m happy to answer any questions about the bills!

MagiKey (TWST AU)
Quartz (Qix Trix) and My Yuu (Fragaria) Information
Basic Information about Quartz and Yuu
Tumblr media
Quartz [MagiKey User “Qix Trix”]
“being a magical girl fucking sucks bro. i wish i could take it back ngl 😭😭"
Quartz is a 17 year old girl who has been a MagiKey user for 3 years. She seems to switch her personality when she is in her magical girl form. Instead of the blunt and irritable attitude in her normal form, she becomes an excitable but charming character in her magical girl form. She doesn't seen to rank top 10 in Magical Girl/People popularity rankings or any rankings to be exact. Although, she's able to make an impression with her unpredictable moves.
She's a normal girl overall. She doesn't have a job and only spends her time at home in the foundation she is put in.
Status:
Mental/Emotional Strength: ★★★★☆ (She's not easy to break but she could be weak for Yuu)
Physical Strength: ★★★☆☆ (Decent but she isn't the strongest)
Stamina: ★★★☆☆ (Holds well in a close range fight but long range takes too much running and thinking)
Strategy: ★★☆☆☆ (Ends up going in head first)
Strengths: She can easily trick and distract enemies. It is her specialty to make them confused and stall for allies to strike.
Weaknesses: If the enemy is extremely intimidating, she'll end up backing away from the fight so she doesn't get messy.
Yuu [MagiKey User "Fragaria"]
"Helping people and saving the world doesn't seem that bad! Besides, it's super fun to see everyone else's abilities!"
Yuu is a 17 year old kid just living their life. They've been a MagiKey user for a year and they are still learning. Yuu seems to keep the same positive attitude from their normal to their magical form. Their personality seems to boost everyone's mood and they try their hardest to support every MagiKey user on the battlefield. They aren't at the top 10 in popularity but people always want them to come assist in battles in which they do! But they have to invite their best friend Quartz too.
A very passionate and genuine kid who just wants to help people.
Status:
Mental/Emotional Strength: ★★★☆☆ (With certain context, Yuu is a very empathetic person which could lead them to become weak from that.)
Physical Strength: ★★★★★ (Quite strong since they are carrying a heavy basket. It's REALLY heavy.)
Stamina: ★★★★★ (Restores energy with strawberries so it's neverending)
Strategy: ★★★☆☆ (Sometimes tries to do strategies but ends up off track)
Strengths: Their support can easily boost allies motivation. They want their friends to defeat the villain with their full potential!
Weaknesses: They are naive and sympathize with people easily. This can lead them falling into traps and probably letting the enemy win.
Tumblr media
They were actually raised in some foundation orphanage thing idk. They have no knowledge of their birth parents (since they look out of place aka one is GREY with crazy hair and one is SOME ENTITY??)
Quartz was a very quiet kid while Yuu was more outgoing. They would always stay together and they saw eachother as close friends
When Quartz hit 14, a magikey appeared on her bed and went on to become a magical girl before Yuu (she kinda didn’t wanna do it)
Tumblr media
Quartz of course kept it a secret from Yuu
For a year, she managed to keep it a secret but she ended up struggling to fight a villain. She was beat and worn down but UNTIL BOOM!! Yuu is HERE!!
Tumblr media
it didn’t really work uhhh they almost got their ass beat 😭😭😭
Quartz managed to save themselves and beat the villain with the support of Yuu (OMG FRIENDSHIP POWER!!)
But this made the secret not a secret anymoreee so Yuu knew that Quartz was a magical girl
Tumblr media
When they were 16, Yuu finally recieved their magikey !!
But there was also an offer for Yuu to train at the newly built MagiKey school before actually getting out there as an official one
Tumblr media
Quartz didn’t have to take that school when she first started and managed to figure out things so she also told that Yuu didn’t have to go but Yuu insisted
The foundation they were in already had a school built in so they would have to train after school hours
Quartz eventually caved in and joined Yuu in the new MagiKey Training School
They still fight and are offical magical girls. They are mostly seen fighting together.

✶ FIRST PART: INTRODUCTION AND ALREADY DESIRE TO LEAVE
plot: the largest villa in japan is opening its doors to 16 guys, all with the same characteristics: hot, young and single. get ready for the life of 8 girls and 8 boys, all ready to win the main prize: to come out winners and, maybe, with their soulmate. the challenges are ready, but you are ready for the challenges? the journey begins now!
Tumblr media
"Are we sure it works? I mean, I don't even think it's on..." says the presenter, who happens to be me, Maya. The sound of the microphone explodes in the TV studio, causing a slight complaint from the audience who now have no eardrums "Oh yeah, it definitely works" I say satisfied, then turning to the audience that probably hates me at the moment "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first edition of the reality show "Race to Romance", where our contestants will find their soulmate among their enemies!" I say, but a voice interrupts me in the background "Say enemies to lovers didn't work better?" says the mysterious voice, but with a quick sign to the staff I ask to cancel the propagation of the sound from the mysterious microphone. I sigh a bit "It’s time for introductions, since time flies here. Let’s start with our ladies…"
You go up on stage, yes, you who are reading this right now. The audience explodes in a huge applause, maybe because of the beautiful dress you are wearing or maybe because they are paid to do this. Probably both. You arrive at the end of the television studio, the audience stops applauding. You turn slightly towards the wings, where the girls you will be participating with are looking at you curiously: you had the chance to talk to them previously, and you think it will be a nice opportunity to spend a few days with them on this program. You notice Helen looking at you smiling, while Nikki is giving you the thumbs up, maybe to encourage you. You look at them hopefully, as you take the microphone and clear your throat "It's a pleasure for me to be here, I'm also surprised above all that I passed the auditions. But evidently they chose the best ones" you say trying to sound charismatic, and not anxious as you are. The audience applauds again, and you sincerely hope that they are not doing it just because they are paid to do so. Maybe in reality you hope so, you just need to know that you don't seem ridiculous at the moment
"Only the best for the first season of the reality show" I say, clapping my hands lightly "Tell me girl, what do you think of the group of girls you've already met?" I ask. You clear your throat again, trying to relax your nerves "I've talked to some of them, but I'm really sure a good group will form once we enter the villa. We'll be strong when the men drive us crazy" you say, and I nod "Of course! You always have to have at least someone to confide in, here you'll def have more than one. Instead, what do you think of the men's introductions?" I ask
In your mind you replay the videos you've seen, the ones where the guys introduce themselves: you also shot the same commercial a week ago, and probably the others saw it the same way you saw theirs. You've seen a lot of cute guys, but there are others you'd stay away from. Three in particular come to mind "I've seen a few, but especially the one about the German, the extremely rich boy, and a certain younger brother. I have nothing bad to say about them! They seem fine... at least the last two. The first one, the German, seems extremely full of himself" you say honestly, and the audience laughs "You're talking about Micheal Kaiser, Reo Mikage and Rin Itoshi. Why do you think that about Kaiser Micheal?" I ask, and you sigh "In his video he did nothing but talk about being an emperor. I get it! No need to repeat it... 17 times?" you say sighing, and the audience actually seems interested
"I see. I ask the audience to give another round of applause, because another person is about to join us. From the men's team, Micheal Kaiser!" I say, and turning around I notice how slightly pale you have become. You gulp down a lump of saliva, a particularly heavy one, as the slender figure of the Bastard Munchen striker steps onto the stage. The usual smirk curls his lips, as he takes his microphone "Good evening everyone. Any problems with me and we haven't even entered the villa?" asks the boy. You turn to the girls, but magically they have disappeared. You put the microphone to your lips, but a series of stuttered words only make your situation worse for you. Kaiser laughs, running a hand through his hair "You don’t know how answer to me?" he asks, but I take his microphone "Save the beef for when you're locked in there. Race to Romance officially starts now!" I say, and two assistants come to get you
As you walk back to the girls, you wonder why you wanted to participate here. Cute boys? Definitely. Chance to make new friends and become famous? Sure. But the destruction of your ego was not planned for this soon, yet it has happened

Headcannon
No on calls Bruce ‘dad’. The closest we get is Damian calling him ‘father’ but it’s always ‘Bruce’ or ‘B’ (Or ‘Brucie’) but they’ve all let it slip once.
Dick Grayson:
Robin, 10 yrs old
Batman and Robin are currently fighting dozens of goons who seem slightly smarter than the last batch. 10 yro Robin is a little overwhelmed and lowers his guard for one second just to grab something from his belt but that’s when he gets hurt. A blow to the head, stabbed, whatever the injury is, it knocks him down. With a little consciousness left, he tries reaching out to Bruce, “…dad?”
The next thing he knows, he’s waking up, all the bad guys are gone. The mission is over and Bruce personally delivered the criminal to solitary. Dick doesn’t ever remember calling him that, so he’s a little confused by Bruce’s coddling for the next month.
Jason Todd:
Red Hood, 19 yrs old
He told Bruce not to show. That any extra help would just distract him but Bruce showed up anyways so now he has to actually try and stay alive instead of being reckless. But as faiths would have it, it’s the one mission that goes wrong. He gets shot. It didn’t hit any major arteries or puncture anything, so Jason tries to deal with it.
Bruce is not having that so he pulls his son aside and starts assessing the damage. Jason is fussy and frustrated and Bruce just is not getting the memo. “Would you stop? I’m fine, dad!” And then they stare at each other while there a shootout happening. Bruce just blindly reaches into his belt and tosses a sensor filled with knockout gas.
They never talk about it.
Tim Drake:
Robin, 16 yrs old
Sleep deprived, 17 cups of coffee, and is still no closer to solving the case. He angry and tired and he can’t remember the last time he had a meal and not snacks he stole from Bruce’s secret stash. He doesn’t even remember the last time he blinked he’s been staring at the Bat Computer so long.
Bruce drapes a blanket over his shoulders, slides the coffee from his reach. Tim just lets him. He doesn’t have the energy to think. Bruce turns on Tim’s favorite show, keeping the volume quiet and the brightness down and Tim’s heads down, half-asleep already. Bruce just smiles and cleans up Tim’s mess. Making sure the blanket is nice and secure, he goes to leave. Tim, barely conscious, mutters a small, “thanks dad.”
Bruce melts.
Damian Wayne:
Robin, 14 yrs old
He doesn’t need to call Bruce dad. Bruce is his father, not his dad. There a subtle but important difference in Damian’s mind. However he calls Clark ‘Superdad’ all the time (cannon, btw). It’s not something he’s hiding, but he’s only really ever said it around Jon before. Bruce overhears it once and sulks for days.
Damian doesn’t know why, Bruce is his father. That more important than ‘dad’. But he’s sulking and it’s making him worried frustrated so he sucks it up. After patrol, he’s heading to bed he just goes, “Good night, dad.” Causally. Bruce beams and Damian brushes it off and goes back to his room. When he’s alone, he smiles to himself. Maybe an occasional ‘dad’ slip-up wouldn’t be so bad.

Tumblr media
5:52am
— AGE: 4 years old, 5 years old
you hid behind the legs of your mother, gripping onto her perfectly ironed, floral patterned kimono. the dazzling shade of sky blue that burned holes into you hadn't even tried to take its gaze away. you were currently meeting your fiancé, satoru gojo. he was born blessed. he had it all.. wealthy, cute facial features (in your humble opinion), and his most outstanding trait, he was born with incredible power, strength and hierarchy wise, that was probably why you were so incredibly intimated, especially since he hasn't taken his eyes off of you for 6 whole minutes.
"satoru, why don't you go play with [name], hm?" his mother gently pushed him towards you and your mother. you only buried your face further into your mother's leg, your eyebrows creasing to show off how upset you seemed, you were basically about to piss yourself with how nervous you were.
satoru blankly walked behind your mother to grab your wrist, causing a yelp and flinch from you while your mother simply giggled at the sight, moving away to let you and satoru have your space together.
you snapped your head towards your mother, silently asking for her help, to which she gave you a nonchalant shrug before continuing her conversation with satoru's mother. nervously, you sighed, glancing over at the albino that still couldn't stop staring at you.
"[name], your name is pretty." he quietly mumbles, causing you to give him a small smile "... thanks.. so is yours.."
5:53am
— AGE: 7 years old, 8 years old
it was another gathering between your clan and the gojo clan. it was an outdoor gathering, which was usually rare for such prestigious clans. most of the adults were eating and socialising with each other. meanwhile, you sat right at the trunk of a cherry blossom tree, reading a big book that smelled like old paper about some country's history. you had always been pretty advanced at your age. you were only 7, and you were already reading books that weigh half of you.
you heard some rustling beside you before you saw the flash of blue from satoru's yukata. "that looks boring." he pouted, resting his head on your shoulder.
"it's not boring.." you defended your book
"well, it looks boring, you should come play with me instead."
"... i don't wanna.. i'm too lazy to run..."
you managed to tune satoru out. he turned his head to watch your side profile. satoru focused on the unconscious pout of your lips, the way your eyes were slightly narrowed as to avoid the sunlight, since it was right in front of your face and how much he really wanted to bite your chubby cheeks right now.
"[name]." he called out to you, only to get ignored
".. [name]."
"[naaaaammmeeee].."
"[name]!"
you didn't react to the continuous call of your name, you didn't react to satoru inching closer... and closer... and closer... and—
"ouch!" you flinched as he sunk his teeth into the baby fat of your cheeks. "satoru!"
".. your fault?" he tilted his head innocently "you didn't play with me"
"uggghh fine.. i'll play with you.. but don't get my kimono dirty, or else my mom might get mad at me..."
5:54am
— AGE: 16 years old, 17 years old
the friend group you all had in high school was perfect. a perfect even number, a perfect dynamic, no one felt left out.
six people: satoru, suguru, shoko, kento, yu and you! satoru and suguru were best friends, you and shoko were best friends and kento, and yu were best friends. satoru, suguru, and shoko were all second years, while you, yu, and kento were first years.
all six of you were at your usual hangout spot, talking about where you would go once the school day ended.
"i say we go get burgers." satoru raised his hand excitedly. "fattie." suguru scoffed as you all laughed.
"guys.. satoru isn't fat.. he's big boned.." you stepped in to defend(?) him. satoru dreamily grinned as you protected(?) him, only for your words to sink in his brain... after that he side eyed you.
"he must have a huge bone in his ass then.. " kento mumbled, averting his gaze, causing satoru's mouth to go agape while the others burst out laughing.
all though, satoru appeared to be offended, he didn't care all that much.
he would be the butt of the joke any day if it means he gets to see you laughing and smiling.
5:55am
— AGE: 16 years old, 17 years old
shoko had sent photos of a flyer she saw for the summer festival in your group chat. you all agreed on going, and even utahime and maybe mei mei were going to tag along too.
you had spent your time with the three other girls, getting ready for the festival. the three were especially helping you out, since they wanted you to impress satoru.
"why do we need to do this again?" utahime spoke up as she helped you with curling your bottom lashes "your a literal angel, gojo doesn't deserve all this effort."
mei mei huffed in amusement "you can say what you want about him, but you can't deny he's conventionally attractive" she spoke in her usual sultry voice, earning a small 'gross' from utahime.
shoko was tying to tie your kimono obi for you "how the hell do you do this?!" she exclaimed in frustration. utahime had finished with your lashes so she helped shoko out. neither you or mei mei missed how the two other girls had brushed hands, glanced at eachother, blushed then look away right after..
"y-y'know... you guys should probably focus less on me.. i can do things by myself.." you nervously mumbled.
"no!" shoko frowned "the only reason i sent it to the group chat and invited the guys along was for the sole purpose of having you and gojo be going together." she grabbed your shoulders.
"their fiancé's.. i would hope they go together.." mei mei commented.
you and the other girls ended up showing up 10 minutes late, meeting up with the 4 guys who were impatiently waiting for you. satoru had a pout on his face, though it instantly dissolved when he laid eyes on you.
you nervously smiled at him and he quickly pushed past utahime, earning a glare from her, to get to you... blushing like some pathetic idiot..
".. you look.. like... "he stumbled over his words "you look like— good.. you look good." he spoke, before grinning.
you paused before gently laughing at him "thanks, toru... you look good, too."
neither of you really understood why you were so nervous around eachother right now, you had seen eachother naked, taken baths together, gone on almost 200 dates, and yet you were nervous NOW of all times?
your friends didn't seem all that amused, except for shoko and yu, who took like 10 photos each at the cute display.
you and satoru held hands all night that night, and when the fireworks were going off, satoru preferred to keep his gaze on his one true light, despite everyone else facing something physically bigger. he was always one to stare at you. and luckily, that time, you were too enamoured by the bursts of colour in the sky that you didn't feel his eyes.
5:56am
— AGE: 20 years old, 21 years old
satoru watched from the end of the aisle as the large doors opened up to reveal you.
sweet, kind, mindful, gorgeous, humble, you, who he had fallen so deep in love with. you looked just like a princess, the prettiest princess on earth, with your big white dress, your veil, your fancy heels, your expensive jewellery, and your bouquet of your favourite flowers.
this was the day satoru had been looking forward to the most, ever since he met you when you were kids, he would daydream atleast once a day of your wedding. it was small, very close family members and friends. usually, arranged marriages were always big and grand, with everyone on earth and venus attending your big day, but satoru had pulled some strings (tweaked the guest list) to make everything perfect for the both of you.
"toru, my love... when i first met you 15 years ago, I used to be.. uh— really nervous around you... y'know, cause.. I found you cute.. and I thought you were too cool for me.. and uh—" you had to take a second, sniffling as you read your vows, continuing on and on, mostly the standard stuff, about how you'd promise to love and cherish him, you also recalled old childhood memories and such. "they say you're lucky when you marry the man of your dreams, but that wouldn't really fit— you are the maker of my dreams, and i have never met anyone like you..." you managed to stammer out while satoru started straight crying.
you chuckled as tears streamed down his face. this was probably the third time in 15 years you'd seen him cry. you gently wiped it away from him as he started reading his own vows.
when you glanced into the group of people watching, on one side were close members of your family, and the other were your personal friends. shoko, utahime, kento, and mei mei were the only remaining ones. the flower girl and the ring bearer were two siblings that you and satoru had basically adopted, tsumiki and megumi.
"and.. you may now kiss the bride."
5:57am
— AGE: 24 years old, 25 years old
"u-uungh... hahh~" you relished in the aftershock of the pleasure that satoru had just put you through. he fell down right next to you, wrapping his arm around your waist.
"feel good, angel?" he murmured, boyishly smiling as he peppered kisses on your neck and face.
"y-yeah... sorry.. i don't think I can feel my legs.." you spoke in slight embarrassment as he laughed
"don't apologise..." he picked you up bridal style and took you to the bathroom, running up a warm bath and making sure to put in extra suds, cause he knew you liked it that way.
he placed you inside, before sitting behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist to pull you closer so your back hit his chest.
"[name], my angel? can i tell you something?" he whispered
"yeah? of course you can..."
"i didn't pull out." this bastard didn't even seem guilty about not asking you. though, it was no secret that he wanted a family, you had both talked about and agreed on 2 or 3 kids, even though satoru would have much preferred 200 septillion.
"toru.." you frowned "you should have asked me.."
"i know.. m' sorry, angel... i'll make sure next time.. but for now..." he slid his hand up to your stomach "let's hope my little minions did their job and got you pregnant just like i wanted them too" he has a cartoon smile on his face as you side eyed him.
—``☆
3 weeks after that night and you were getting regular morning sickness and nausea. you naturally assumed it was time to take the test.
you had gone out to buy the pregnancy test when satoru was at work. you went to the bathroom, did what you had to do, and waited for a bit to see. the two lines slowly started to become visible on the test window and you had to resist yourself from jumping up and down in happiness.
that night, when satoru came trudging home, ripping off the bandages that covered his eyes, obviously tired and just wanting sleep and cuddles, you immediately ran up to him, taking the small long rectangle shaped test and pointing to the result. positive.
satoru stared at the test with widened eyes "i-is this..." you nodded "and— and– are you..." he pointed his finger to you, earning a nod and a small hum.
satoru picked you up, the largest smile ever was planted on his face as you wrapped your arms around his neck, letting him spin you around.
"i can't believe i'm gonna be a mother.." neither of you could contain your excitement.
megumi and tsumiki watched from the hallway as you guys celebrated. "what's going on?" tsumiki spoke up as megumi munched on some chips.
"kids... i'm pregnant!" you exclaimed happily "isn't that so great, you guys get to have a little sibling!"
much to satoru's dismay, you broke your hug to hug the two kids. tsumiki was so excited, meanwhile megumi was neutral, blank faced as always. he didn't make it obvious that he was a bit upset he wouldn't be the youngest anymore...
5:58am
— AGE: 24 years old, 25 years old.
satoru had rushed you to the hospital as fast as he could, this couldn't be happening, right? it was 5 whole months before your due date to give birth, but you were giving birth right now. meaning the baby was going to be very premature if you did end up giving birth safely. satoru didn't mind having a premature baby. the only thing on his mind was for his baby and his wife to make it out alive.
you were in a lot of pain, enough pain that you were in tears, and doctors worked hard to properly deliver the baby. you held onto satoru's hand tightly, wincing in pain as satoru gently ran his fingers through your hair.
"a-almost there, miss—"
one of the doctors spoke up. satoru looked around, noticing how some of the doctors seemed a bit worried. he chalked it up to the baby's possible health complications, but when he was told to step out..
"what? why do i need to leave? my wife needs me." satoru narrowed his eyes, frowning as one of the nurses had politely asked him to wait outside.
"we need to deal with things while your not in the room, please step out sir, it won't take a while" the nurse professionally spoke, not fazed by satoru's almost glare.
satoru averted his eyes to you, noticing how you were already staring at him, a hint of worry on your face. he wiped away the sweat pooling up ong your forehead and kissed away the tears. your bloodshot, tearful eyes stared into his own before he forced a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
"i love you, my angel.. they told me i had to leave, so i'll be right outside, alright?"
you hurriedly nodded, whimpering again as you tried to push once more.
it took satoru 13 whole minutes to fully leave you.
satoru waited even longer outside for you.
40 minutes, satoru had his head in his hands, not wanting to assume the worst possible outcome. he manspreaded on the chair right next to the door of your hospital room, immediately perking up when he heard the door open, seeing some doctors and nurses walking it.
"i.. i'm sorry, mr gojo.." the doctor started.
hearing the news of your death had broke satoru completely. he felt like he was shattered in pieces, and a steamroller came by to shatter the pieces so now he was just dust.
he fell to the ground, covering his face with his hands. shoko had arrived with the kids, megumi, and tsumiki. when she heard the news, she was utterly distraught. tsumiki loudly cried as she hugged satoru and megumi sat on one of the chairs to process the news. he tried hiding his tears but failed miserably.
you, satoru's angel, had flew up high, all the way to the afterlife, and you took your son with you.
5:59am
— AGE: 24 years old, 28 years old
satoru had never moved on from you.
after your death, he didn't bother even hooking up with other women. he didn't want them if they weren't you. for the past 3 years, he had been single.
he sat at a bench outside with his student, yuuji itadori. satoru whipped his phone out, turning it on to light up the screen, revealing an image of a woman unknown to yuuji.
yuuji's mouth gaped, leaning in to look closely at satoru's lockscreen. "is that a model?!? she's beautiful, what's her name?" he exclaimed as satoru laughed loudly.
"hey, pack it up, that's a married woman."
"then why do you have her as your lockscreen?"
"take the wildest guess possible, yuuji."
"huh?... ... ... OHHHH"
satoru laughed once again "yep, that's my girl"
"wow... she's really pretty, when do we get to meet her?"
at that moment, megumi and nobara had appeared with the food that they all ordered, causing yuuji to forget his question and focus on his double cheeseburger instead.
"yuuuum!"
satoru sat and watched his students, enjoy their meals, hung up on yuuji's question. 'when do we get to meet her.' he had never told his students about your fate, megumi was the only one who knew.
setoru sighed, glancing back at his lockscreen, staring at the image of your smiling face, he felt a stinging sensation in his heart. he could cry right now, he always felt like crying when he saw you in photos or videos. he sighed,swallowing the lump in his throat before turning his phone off to talk to the others.
6:00am
— AGE: 24 years old, 29 years old
the afterlife was nothing like satoru had expected. he thought it would be open grass fields with baby angels giving you new afterlife clothes and a new afterlife house where you spend eternity in. but no.
instead, satoru got an airport? after his clash with the king of curses, satoru had but one wish that he would go to heaven and see you again.
when he arrived at the airport, he was in his high school body from 2006, a time he was most happy. he dug into his pocket, finding the polaroid you had taken of both him and you at the summer festival. a gentle smile lit his face up as he studied the image.
he found all his old friends, suguru, yu, kento, and they had a conversation, though he continuously asked where you're whereabouts were.
"how was the king of curses?" suguru inquired
"insanely friggin' strong!" satoru replied, stretching back to ruffle high school kento's sidepart "and he wasn't even going all out!" satoru tilted back his sunglasses "i miss my wife, where is she." his whole vibe changed and the other three sweatdropped.
"i was just talking with [name] earlier, your baby is so adorable!" yu commented
"kenji is one cute kid." suguru smiled as satoru's heart fluttered.
"he's here too.. and [name] named him the name i chose.." hearing yu confirm that you were definitely around here somewhere got him even more excited.
"oh, you chose kenji's name?" suguru turned his head towards satoru.
"yeaahh, it was either kenji, or angemon."
"..."
"... angemon?"
"you mean like.. the digi—"
"yeah, the digimon character." satoru cut kento off, nodding along to his two choices of names.
yu and kento glanced at eachother as suguru shook his head.
"whaaat? it's a pretty sick name if you ask me" satoru closes his eyes, smirking
"satoru?"
he heard your voice, he could tell by the soft tone, the same one he fell inlove with, the same one that cracked when you read your vows out to him.
his eyes immediately snapped open. he stood up, startling suguru as he faced you in front of him
"..." you hummed, a smile graced your lips as your eyes crinkled up. "you... your late."
he studied your appearance, it was the same you in high school, except you held a small baby wrapped in your arms. kenji had satoru's eyes, but he had small tufts of your hair colour.
satoru's throat tightened. he walked— no, ran towards you and didn't hesitate to wrap you both in an embrace, being extra gentle so he wouldn't hurt kenji. the three other guys all stood up, deciding it was best to let your small family have your moment.
satoru cried, and cried, and cried.. "God... i missed you so much.." his voice cracked as you gently soothed him, letting him bury his face in your neck, inhaling your addictive scent.
"satoru... meet kenji" you pulled away, not too far to show off the mix of genes in your arms.
"h-hi, little guy..." satoru grinned widely "wow.. he's perfect.." satoru's slender figure pinched his cheek. "it feels like we're teen parents.." he laughed a bit
"you know, in the afterlife, you're actually every age, so technically, we could also be 98 year old parents and kenji could be 102" you dropped a fun fact that you learned from yu.
satoru grins, hiding his smile in your shoulder and burning holes into your side profile. ".. you look beautiful.. love you so fuckin' much.."
you leaned into his touch
"i love you more, toru.."

I want to tell you how much I like your lcf posts they're super helpful and fun! I was wondering if you can tell some infos about choi han, his wiki is tragically short and there's no many information there which is kinda ironic considering he's the "og protagonist" and is a major character. Do you by any chance have any idea about what era of Korea he came from and maybe the kind of uniform used that time?
In order to answer the question, "when Choi Han was born?", we must start with his family. And to do that, we must begin with our actual main character; Kim Rok Soo. When exactly was he born? We get a very decent clue right away:
"It was a typical day off. It had been a while since he had read an actual book instead of on his phone, so he went to the library to check out some books." –EAP translation of TCF Chapter 1
"It started as a typical day off. He hadn't leafed through a physical book in a while, what with how often he read on his phone, so he went to a book rental shop to borrow some." –Official translation of LCF Chapter 1
Both versions state pretty much the sam thing. We can conclude three things:
Smartphones and e-books were popular in Korea by the time the present happened, since Kim Rok Soo was used to them.
Because we have to take into account the Monster Invasion of Earth 1, e-books had to gain popularity BEFORE it initially happened, since after that point humanity would be mainly focusing on rebuilding, both in the physical and social way. I doubt e-books would be a priority for humanity to develop afterwards, so they had to be invented AND popular before that point.
Since Kim Rok Soo was poor before "the cataclysm", him being a college student with multiple part-time jobs on top of being an orphan… It would be wise to consider whether there was a time in Korea where electronic devices became a part of college scholarships. Because he couldn't possibly afford them on his own, so he definitely got used to them through a funded scholarship program.
According to my online research, the use of electronic devices in colleges was already underway by 2010, when smartphones were already widespread and common technology. I think this is a good starting point for our timeline: by the time Kim Rok Soo was 20, the state of technology of Earth 1 was at least comparable to what we had in 2010. This is our "earliest" starting point.
Our "latest" point should probably be in 2018, when the author of the series first started posting in Korean on Munpia. Because while this story does technically take place 16 years in the future, it is a surprise twist which gets revealed much later on; at the beginning, the readers are under the assumption that Kim Rok Soo is "a regular guy from a regular South Korea".
So: Kim Rok Soo was born somewhere between 1990 and 1998. This means Choi Jung Soo was also born between 1990 and 1998, because they were the exact same age.
Choi Jung Soo is Choi Han's paternal cousin/nephew once removed. In other words, Choi Han had a brother, who had a son, who then had Choi Jung Soo. So generation-wise, Choi Han should be around the age of Choi Jun Soo's grandfather.
Grandfathers generally have to be at least 30 years older than their grandchildren. Once again, according to online research, the average age gap between grandparents and their grandkids in Korea should be 59 years. So between 30 and 60 years sounds about right.
That means that the earliest age of Choi Han we should be considering should place his birth around year 1930, and at latest 1968 – let's round it up to 1970 for simplification. Then Choi Han transmigrated at the age of 17 (I heard once that Koreans measure their years differently or something so he should actually be 16 but whatever; one year makes little difference here), so around 1947, to 1987 at latest possible date.
If we take earlier numbers into account – Choi Han being born in 1930 and transmigrating in 1947, what historical era was it? World War II era, obviously, and Korea was under Japanese colonial rule (1910–1945), so it probably wasn't such a great time. Luckily Choi Han was too young to get drafted into military, as the minimum age was exactly 17.
Then, what about the technology?
Most Koreans were involved in agriculture or low-level labor under the colonial regime, and Korean children were given substandard education, with no focus on technology use. Their society only had access to basic mechanical and electrical technologies, such as typewriters and factory machinery. Phone already existed, but were limited to landline, and more common in government offices than households – mostly exclusive to the upper Korean class citizens and elite Japanese residents. So the Choi family definitely did not have them. Between 1930 and 1970, cars were a luxury or rarity, with domestic car production only kicking off in the mid-1960s; so no cars for the Chois either. First public TV broadcast in South Korea happened in 1956, so they did not have TVs just yet either. Computers did not enter the stage until mid-to-late 1940s, and were only in use in military and research settings in countries like the USA and Great Britain. The internet came in only in the late 1960s in the USA, so Choi Han definitely never witnessed it, much less used it. South Korea's true technological development began in earnest during the late 1960s to 1970s, and accelerated through the 1980s and 1990s – so Choi Han could have witnessed some of it, but not all that much. Not with him and his family living in a peaceful countryside.
So, uh… we gotta face it guys… no matter of how much of a "modern" person Choi Han was as a transmigrator… he was actually kind of a peasant? Like, a legitimate one?? He could read of course, but his family DEFINITELY consisted of farmers, no matter if they could swing a sword or not.
I did not expect this when I began researching this topic hahaha!
No disrespect to farmers of course (that would be hypocritical of me), but like… no WONDER Choi Han had such a rough time in the Sealed God's Temple Test of Indignity! Imagine, this guy must have felt like on another planet!! (Well it literally was lmao) He made a jump from a war colonial era or post-war recovery era countryside, to the 21st century modern city and an office job! Man, I feel so bad for him. And his realization that he had no place on modern Earth make so much sense. I would have felt the exact same way in his shoes; Roan Kingdom medieval style must have felt more like Korea to him than the actual Korea.
As for the part of the question regarding school uniforms…
Not everyone was able to afford uniforms in Korea back then, due to obvious financial constraints, so many children did not have "real" uniforms and wore simple, handmade, second-hand stuff instead. But generally, what was considered Korean school uniforms for boys at the time was based on Western-style military: blazers, pants, high collars, neckties, buttons, caps et cetera. They were commonly navy or dark blue, with occasional gray maybe? Only after the war some USA influences came in, like turning the pants into shorts and overall making the uniform less soldier-like and strict.
So if you are looking for inspiration for fanart to draw Choi Han in accurate Korean-style school uniform from his time period, something that looks like a dark blue navy uniform is probably your best bet.
Wow, this was an expected dive into South Korea's history! I learned a lot. I hope you found this helpful at well!

2: Avoid AI! Support actual artists/writers etc
3: Support/volunteer at animal shelters
4: Put out feeders and bird baths for the local critters
5: Plant trees or flowers outside or in your house (but make sure the trees/flowers are native to your area)
6: Talk or sing to your plants (yes plants love it)
7: This tip depends on the circumstances, but I've helped many stray dogs and cats that I randomly take in and care for till I find them a home
8: Instead of buying from factory farms, buy stuff from local farms or grow your own food
9: Spay and neuter pets (there's enough unwanted babies in the world)

1.4k words
A much calmer Zen has a lot to unload.
(I am feral over my own character, ask box is always open for talking about my writing or just monster fucking in general!)
--------
Zen’s fluffy, shaggy hair tickled your nose as he stirred a bit and woke you. In the nearly two months you had been together you could not recall a single time when he slept in, seeing him still in bed was quite a surprise.
You kissed the top of his head and immediately felt him nuzzle against you, though you were not really sure if he was actually awake or if it was a subconscious reaction. His breathing was deep and even, and he seemed much calmer at least.
“Are you awake?” you whispered.
He nodded, apparently still not feeling quite up to speaking.
“Are you alright?”
Again he just nodded.
“Everything is alright my dear, I promise” you scratched the side of his head where his hair was cropped short, the only spot where you really could get through his dense hair to scratch his scalp.
“I ruined everything” his voice was so quiet as he spoke.
“No, no. You didn’t ruin anything Zen.”
“I hurt you the first time yesterday, then I went and did that.”
“And it’s ok, things happen, but you didn’t ruin anything.”
He stayed quiet and did not acknowledge you.
“I’m not mad or upset or anything” you tried to assure him, “I’m just worried about you, I just want you to be alright,”
“I am upset at myself.”
“I know” you kissed the top of his head again, “and we’ll figure it out together, I promise.”
That seemed to at least somewhat satisfy him, he gave another little nuzzle against you and you swore for just a moment that you heard him purr.
“How about I make us some breakfast? You’ve got to be starving by now, you never sleep this late” you offered.
“You are not good at cooking.”
“Then come sit with me and tell me what to do and keep me company.”
He nodded and shimmed off of you so you could get up.
Zen stuck at your side as you sat at the hearth, a blanket still wrapped around himself and his chin resting on your shoulder while he watched you closely. With a little guidance you were able to make a serviceable enough breakfast for the two of you.
It was a bit smothering how Zen chose to sit behind and a bit to your side so he could lean his chin on your shoulder. He decided to eat breakfast like that too, his arms wrapped around you as he reached for things, restricting how much you could move but you did not have the heart to try to get him to just sit next to you instead.
“It should not be like this” you heard him say softly.
“I know, but this is where we are, and we can go back to taking things slowly” you leaned against him and nuzzled him a bit, “and if it makes you feel any better, you felt incredible last night. But I can wait while we figure things out.”
He buried his face against your neck as best he could with his tusks getting in the way. It was faint, but you could hear his soft purring for just a moment.
“I am just so tired of waiting. I waited for so long for this war to end so I could just go home. And now instead I am here, where I barely get to speak my own tongue, my festivals are not celebrated here. I fought so one day I could go home, and I still cannot. And now I do not want to wait more to have you.”
It never occurred to you that Zen might be homesick. You knew he was not from the city, but he usually seemed happy. He knew so many people, always stopping to smile and chat with when the two of you were out, he knew his way around the city well, everything always seemed fine anyways.
“Have you gone back to visit recently?” you asked.
“Not since the end of the war. I went home to see everyone, and then almost immediately got summoned here and offered the position.”
Six months then you figured at least since he had been home. Six months since Zen had started living somewhere where everything was new and different, where he did not have his family, where he could almost never speak his own language. The irony that neither of you were home here was not lost on you.
“Why not go visit?” you asked.
“I do not have the time. There is just to much to do here” he said.
“Even just for a week or so?”
“We are rebuilding after a war. It is a puzzle of constantly changing and moving pieces trying to figure out what is needed and where.”
“And no one on the council ever takes time away?”
“Some do.”
“So why don’t you?”
He stayed quiet, his face still buried against neck.
“We can go visit together, if you want” you said.
“Maybe.”
‘Maybe’ was better than ‘no’ at least you figured. Though it felt odd that for someone who seemed to be homesick to also be so resistant to visiting home.
“I haven’t met any of your family, well except Bira. I think it would be nice if we went and visited.”
“I did not tell my family I got married.”
You pulled away from him just enough to look him in the eye, “What?”
“It was decided pretty fast, and at the time it did not seem like a big deal, so I did not say anything.”
“Zen! We’ve been married for almost two months! What do you mean you never actually told your family? When you found out you were getting married you didn’t send them a letter or anything?!” you could not believe what he was saying.
“I was told I was getting married in a month’s time, but at the time I did not consider it real. It was just another thing I had to do. It did not seem worth making a big deal of and getting my family involved.”
You really were not surprised that it was not something he made a fuss over, he already had told you that arranged marriages were not a thing here, it was just another duty to him on par with anything else really. But it did surprise you that months after he still had not told his family.
“So they really don’t know?” you asked.
“No, just Ba and Bira, and I asked them not say anything.”
“And you’re sure they haven’t said anything?”
“If my mother knew I was married and she was not here for the wedding she would have made the trip here to yell at me in person by now. I would never hear the end of it.”
“So that’s it? You’re just going to somehow never tell your family that you’re married?” you snapped a bit at him.
“No! No” he tried to press his forehead to yours, frantically tugging at you so he could face you and reach you. “I just do not know what to do now.”
“Tell your family” you answered him flatly.
“I know, but now I do not know how to do that now. I do not want to just show up and surprise them, ‘Hi mother, I have not seen you in months. By the way this is my wife, we have been married for two months and I never told you’ because that will go well.”
“Why not send a letter? Just explain the same thing you told me” you suggested. His family would probably still be annoyed, but at least it would help smooth things over.
“It is not easy to send a letter that far” he protested.
“So you would rather just show up and surprise them?”
“No.”
“Then send a letter.”
He sighed and nuzzled his forehead against yours, “I will send a letter.”
“And perhaps we’ll visit for the next festival?”
“Maybe.”
“You can’t avoid your family forever.”
“Not forever, just long enough to not be yelled at too much.”
“Zen” you pushed back.
“We will go for the next festival” he finally conceded.

Would These Cosmere Characters Read Fanfic?
As requested by @genderselkiera :)
I don't know if fanfiction exists in the Cosmere (has anyone asked Sanderson yet?). But if it did, here is my take on whether various Cosmere characters would be interested. [Full disclosure: I do not myself read fanfiction, despite arguably writing it. I didn't know it existed until, well, graduate school, when I read some because the girl I had a crush on wanted me to. Since then, not so much.]
(Also, cosmereplay & I did one about them reading Cosmere fanfic specifically! Link here.)
1. Jasnah: No
"If I wanted to read fanfiction," Jasnah would say, "there are certain historians I could reread." (She thinks it's frivolous.)
2. Raoden: Yes
He especially likes the ones that bring back a character who died in canon, especially through fun or unlikely means.
3. Galladon: Not often
Galladon doesn't really see the point of fanfiction; it's not like it changes what happens in canon! He will, however, sometimes read one that Raoden begs him to.
4. Vivenna: No
At first, it did not occur to Vivenna that deviations from canon existed, and when she realized that they did, her general attitude was "Huh! Anyway."
5. Yumi: Yes
At first, it did not occur to Yumi that deviations from canon existed, and when she realized that they did, her general attitude was "I WILL READ THEM ALL."
6. Ellista: Yes
Ellista the Ardent is obviously BUILT for fanfiction: writing it, reading it. If it doesn't yet exist on Roshar, she will probably invent it.
7. Dalinar: No--he only writes it
The call of the explicit self-insert fanfiction about Nohadon is too strong: How could Dalinar not write it?
8. Painter: Yes
Fanfiction for Seasons of Regret is VERY popular.
9. Elend: No
I'm not sure Elend even reads fiction?
10. Lyn: Yes
Lyn especially likes the ones that take an underdeveloped female character and make her the star.
11. Tress: Yes
Tress is out there in canon essentially writing cup fanfics in her head. She would definitely read it if she could.
12. Shallan: Yes
Shallan is out there recrafting the pasts & futures of real people through her Ideal Self drawings. I don't see why she wouldn't also like fanfiction.
13. Radiant: No
Radiant understands that Shallan likes and needs fanfiction. But Radiant feels that her time could be better spent doing other, useful things. That's all.
14. Veil: Yes
Veil is there to read the stuff that's a little too racy for Shallan.
15. Hoid: Yes
Hoid has part of his breath memory bank devoted to his favorite ones, I'm sure.
16. Syl: Yes
Especially when Syl doesn't care for the canon couple, she likes to read endless fanfiction where the guy gets the girl SHE thinks he should have.
17. Shai: Not often
Mostly, Shai finds herself getting a little bit annoyed at how little worldbuilding and planning goes into some fanfics. You can't just SAY that they work at a coffee shop now: You need to have all the details of their life exhaustively planned out to get them there!
18. Allrianne: Yes
The great thing about fanfiction is that characters can simply have the emotions you want them to have--you don't even have to work to riot them!
19. Evi: Yes
In fact, Evi thinks that fanfiction and canon are equally important parts of the experience of a book/show, an attitude that confuses almost everyone she talks to.
20. Kadash: Yes
The good thing about becoming an Ardent is that you can read all the fanfiction you want, even the soppy stuff, and no one can say anything about it. (Yes, he read Dalinar's fanfic. He didn't like it.)
21. Mraize: No
Mraize likes to hunt down fanfics that have never before been read, and then he downloads them. But he never actually reads them. It's just about the hunt.
22. Wayne: Yes
Wayne doesn't see why you'd want to read about just one version of someone's life when you could read dozens instead.
23. Dilaf: No
Canon divergence is basically heresy!
24. Hrathen: Yes
Sometimes to get a convert, you need to drop the name of a popular ship to show that you're cool. It's fine.
25. Amaram: Well...
Amaram reads fanfic. Then he uses ChatGPT to "finish" them. He doesn't see why this makes everyone SO upset.

How are you feeling now, Bon?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yeah don't worry, they're fine now, when your tummy is full you can't be mad, that's just science fact
________________
Okay ! Lots of stuff to say here ! There were some details I wasn't sure of about the lore of this mixed UT/ISAT universe, but recently I made myself a little memo of everything and I'm more sure of my stuff. So I made it clear in this one : Chara is here ! And they are here to help....maybe.
Siffrin thoughts and Chara's narration are kinda here at the same time...which must be super confusing to live honestly, but you can still see the difference. I will not develop here why Chara is with Siffrin instead of Frisk, but if you want a small explanation, their wishes mixed together
I personally think that there's a lot of ISAT stuff in this AU and not enough UT, so the next one (the one I really wanted to make for a while) will be more about UT, and it will be out...tomorrow ! Yep, I already started it before I decided to make that one first, so you'll have another answer really soon, whoo oh !
I hope you like this one for now though ! See you soon !
(Also did you notice the new brush I used this time ? I love it honestly, it looks super cool, I think I'll keep it)

The final prompts for Klapollo Week 2025 are here!
Many thanks to those who submitted ideas for our prompts and all who helped to vote for the final seven! Now, the moment you've been waiting for... it’s time to reveal this year’s prompts for Klapollo Week!
Sunday, June 15, 2025: Perceive
Apollo's unique "Perceive" ability aids him in the courtroom, allowing him to get the whole truth out of witnesses and uncooperative councils. He can focus on small habits and movements of people, which, to any regular person, are practically impossible to see. How does this ability affect his and Klavier's trust in their relationship? What secrets of Klavier's would Apollo be able to uncover with such a unique skill?
Monday, June 16, 2025: Hurt/Comfort
A popular and beloved trope for a very good reason. Klavier and Apollo have been through plenty of hardship, both physical and mental, on their own and together. How do these hardships affect their day-to-day lives? How would they console each other if they ever needed comfort? How do they express their love when they're at their most vulnerable?
Tuesday, June 17, 2025: Getting together
The beginnings of a new relationship can be a confusing and tricky territory to navigate. At the start of a blossoming romance, how do Klavier and Apollo learn from each other? How do they connect and grow closer? How do they even start dating, anyways?
Wednesday, June 18, 2025: Soulmates
Bound by strings, connected by clocks, meeting in dreams... there are many ways that destiny and fate can find its way to someone. When the universe has decided their paths for them, how do Klavier and Apollo react? How do they find each other? How do separate roads come together and intertwine?
Thursday, June 19, 2025: Gender
In many people's interpretations, Apollo and Klavier have unique relationships with gender. One's gender identity is oftentimes a big part of how they see themself, and one's gender presentation or expression can sometimes be entirely different from their gender identity. How do Klavier and Apollo express their gender identities? How do they support each other when trying out new labels or presentations? How do they see things differently based on their different (or shared) experiences?
Friday, June 20, 2025: Different first meeting au
We all know the iconic first meeting between Apollo and Klavier, in which the famous line "This is the first time I've felt this way with a man" was first uttered. But what if that never actually happened? What if, instead, Apollo and Klavier had met under completely different circumstances? Would their opinions on each other change or stay the same? Maybe in another universe, Apollo would be the one doing the flirting...
Saturday, June 21, 2025: Guilt
We all make mistakes sometimes, and we all have our screw-ups. But sometimes, no matter how hard we want to forget, the things we've done in the past continue to hang around and haunt us. What would Klavier and Apollo feel guilty about? How do both of them reach reconciliation? How do they make peace with what is long behind them?
Don’t forget to use the tag #KlapolloWeek2025 so your works can be archived to our account! For everyone's convenience, please make sure that you familiarize yourself with our Archive Criteria and FAQ before you submit any work, and send us an ask if you have any questions! We’re very excited to see what you all will make for this event, and we’ll be waiting to see you all soon!
Thanks for sharing, @aafancalendar! ❤💜

“ ᯓ SCOTT BARRINGER X TEEN!SON ˖ ֹ੭
a/n: request from @blckberrie 🍒 ,, first part is more about Leo than Scott, but it gets to both of them after that!
Tumblr media
How does Leo act when he goes through puberty?
13 • Leo is very awkward and likes to keep to himself. He's often sitting in his room playing video games, painting/drawing, listening to music, or doing homework. He keeps himself busy—he doesn't like to stay still and be lazy unless there really is nothing better to do.
14 • He's not as awkward anymore. He knows how to “act normal” because he's more comfortable in his changing body. He's starting to look exactly like Scott, and he actually takes pride in it. Leo grew up hearing that his father was a good-looking man, so to be told he looks like Scott is an honor. Leo doesn't play football, and he doesn't take much interest in the idea as an extracurricular. Playing it with friends or relatives is fine.
15 • His freshman year of high school isn't as bad as he thought it would be. Scott told him how to get through high school smoothly. Leo seriously thinks his dad is a master mind at this kind of stuff. The 15 year old is actually very smart and gets great grades.
16 • The era of Leo's first girlfriend. He's so embarrassed to mention it to his parents, especially Scott, even though you'd think it would be his mother. No, Scott wants to know everything about this relationship. What the girls name is, why Leo likes her, what she looks like, has she had a boyfriend before, is she a skank?
“Dad!” Leo whines at the dinner table, sitting across from his parents as Scott is asking all these questions. “Whats so wrong with asking if she's a skank? There was a bunch of 'em back when I was your age.” Scott smirks, knowing he was bothering Leo, but he didn't care. He always bothered Leo. “Scott, you're being annoying.” Leo's mother holds onto his father's forearm. “Thats what dads are supposed to be.” Scott responds.
“To be fair, dad.. Mom says you were pretty annoying before you even became one.”
“You two love to pick on me, dont you? But once the tables turn and it's my turn to have some fun, you get butthurt.” The older blond rolls his eyes and eats the food off his fork. “Look, sport. You just gotta be careful with girls, alright? And dont be getting them preg-”
“OKAY, DAD. JEEZ.” Leo blushes harshly.
17 • He's a carbon copy of his father. Witty, sarcastic, and kind of mean. Lately, he's been spending more time with Scott. They've gotten closer. They really do have the same kind of humor. They go out sometimes and make fun of their appearances or just say really dumb stuff. Leo also loves to argue with Scott to annoy him and get himself out of things.
“Leo, go get me a rag from the garage so I can clean this mess up.” Scott asks as he works on his car. “Get it yourself, man.” Leo rolls his eyes and stays put next to Scott.
Scott looks over at his son with an annoyed look. “You're out here to help me. Not sit on your ass. Get inside and get me a rag, now.”
“I dont even wanna be here in the first place! It's hot, and you didn't give me enough time to put on sunscreen, so now I'm gonna burn. And mom's gonna get pissed about it! All cause of you!”
“Leo just go get me the fucking rag, God damn it! You're such a bum. Go back inside afterwards—I dont wanna see you for the rest of the day. You piss me off.”
Leo came back from the garage with a rag but didn't go back inside like Scott said to. Instead, he was hovering.
“Why are you still out here? Go!” Scott groans, not looking at the teenage son.
“I changed my mind, I wanna spend time with my dear old papa.” Leo curls his finger in Scott's hair. “Im about to give you five across the face, moron. Leave me alone. Go back inside and lather yourself up with sunscreen or something.” Leo, for some reason, starting spinning around with his eyes closed.
“But fatherrrr! I wanna hel—STOPSTOPSTOP IM SORRY!” Leo yelps as he's getting wet by the hose. The cold, cold water caught him off guard. Scott starts laughing and sprays it all over Leo's face and hair. “DAD STOP IT!!” Leo keeps yelling, but honestly, it's his fault for not even attempting to move out of the way.
18 • Prom and Graduation! Scott starts Prom Day off by following Leo around the house and taking pictures of him everywhere—Leo getting out of bed, eating cereal on the couch in his boxers, brushing his teeth, trying on his outfit, and styling his hair. Leo's so mad. Scott is being so annoying. Leo didn't end up going to prom with a girl since he and that girl didn't end up lasting too long. He instead went with a group of buddies. All the boys were in glasses, and they just looked so silly. Again, Scott was taking hundreds of photos. Graduation went the same, basically.

“ITS THE THIGGISH RUGGISH BONEEE” Leo yells around the house every few minutes. He's so obsessed with that part of the song. It gets on Scott's nerves how comfortable this kid is singing around the house like that. “I miss when he was too shy to ask how to shave.” Scott complains to his wife as they watch TV in the living room. “Hes always liked singing, Scott.”
“No, he's always liked being an annoying prick.”
“Sounds like someone familiar.” She laughs at Scott's unamused face.
Leo shuts his door when he goes back to his room, but then he turns his music on, using a speaker. Scott HATED when Leo would blast his music. Especially because he wasn't very fond of the type of music that Leo likes to listen to. Scott is hoping that this is a phase. LIVING DEAD GIRL is heard.
“This song again.” Scott throws his head back on the couch. “Is he not sick of this song? He listens to it every day, and you can hardly even understand what the guy is saying!”

“Bruh im so HUNGRY.” Leo bursts into his parents' room and flops onto Scott. “Theres food in the fridge, fatty.” Scott replies, changing the TV channel. “I want in-n-out.” Leo says. “Do you have in-n-out money?” Scott shoots back. “Yeah, you have money saved up, dont you?” His mother asks.
“Oh.. hah.. about that money..” Leo says nervously. “Mother fucker I swear if you wasted that shit on something stupid, im gonna beat the hell out of you.” Scott didn't mean it, but he wanted to let Leo know that he really didn't want him to spend money on snacks or anything of the sort when there's some at home.
“I went to the game shop and bought a game.” Leo confesses. “You had 20 dollars. Are you telling me that you spent twenty dollars on a damn game?” Leo didn't want to answer. Scott was intimidating, so he just ignored him. “Ma, do you have money..” He asks. Scott scoffs and pushes Leo off of him. “With your ugly ass..”

“I dont like her. She's too nice. She's hiding something.” Scott whispers to his wide with a raised eyebrow as Leo and his girlfriend walk away to go get something in the kitchen. “She gives floozy vibes.” She gasps and elbows Scott. “This is a 16 year old girl you're talking about!”
“What?! I was 16 once, too! And And! There were a bunch of 'em.” He whispers again. Scott takes another look at the girl. “You know what, she sort of looks more like a loser now that I think about it. We're safe, amiga.” Scott smiles. “Literally shut up. I hate you. I wish you left me when I was pregnant.”
“Girl you better check this attitude, I do not like it.” Scott rolls his eyes and shoves his hand to her face with a laugh.
The girl and Leo look back at his parents, and Leo's face is flushed. “Ignore them.. they're weirdos.”

“And so then we take this tool and??” Scott asks Leo as they work on teaching Leo how to do an oil change. “Er.. I dont know. I wasn't paying attention. I was watching Crash fight with the neighbors cat.” Crash is Leo's cat. The one he'd had since he was 7.
“Oh my God. Did you forget to take your normal pills?” Scott groans. Normal pills.. Leo introduced Scott to the dream meme, so now he calls Leo's medication for ADHD "normal pills."
“OH MY GOSH!!! I knew I had forgotten something. It was right at the bottom of my nose! I'll be right back, big dawg.” Leo pats Scott's back and goes inside. Scott was fighting demons right now. This kid needs a to-do list, definitely.

“GIRL WHY CANT YOU SEE YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE FOR ME? AND IT JUST TEARS MY ASS APART TO KNOW THAT YOU DONT KNOW MY NAAAAAAMMEEE” Leo sings to his mom as she makes dinner. “Who sings that song?” Scott walks in with a few groceries. “Dad, oh my God. How do you not know? Its by D12!”
“Keep it that way.”
She cackles, seeing how Leo's face literally goes: 🤨.. 😐
“HAW-HAW! Good one!” Leo says sarcastically and sits down at the table.
