there are a lot of evil people in the world and a lot of darkness in the world and so itโ€™s very important for me to stress that now more than ever is the time to spread kindness and compassion. combat the evil by not only not partaking in it, but actively refuting it. destroy the notion that being compassionate or generous or kind to someone is uncool or embarrassing or even scary. be the change you want to see. start a chain reaction. positivity only breeds more positivity. do an act of kindness for someone so that that person who is too afraid to do it themselves can see you, realize that theyโ€™re not alone, and perhaps sheepishly follow your example. and then the next person who is too afraid but sees that person can do the same. when bad news comes out about bad people or horrible atrocities in the world itโ€™s such an easy impulse to despair, and obviously itโ€™s important to feel what you need to feel. grieve. be angry. be sorrowful. be empathetic. but dust off your pants and get up and be a part of a chain reaction that, no matter how small the scale, and spread compassion and love and care. all the reasons why you might notโ€”โ€œitโ€™s hard! itโ€™s scary! people will make fun of me! itโ€™s useless because thereโ€™s too much evil!โ€ are all grade A arguments as to why you should. you have no idea how many people you could inspire to do the same. even if it doesnโ€™t get you anyway far, you can at least say you have the nobility of trying. please choose love and please choose life. you are worth loving and you are worth inspiring others to love

And some days, I just wish you wouldn't look at me at all.
#ffxiv#sketch#wol#meteor survivor#zenos yae galvus#adventurer zenos#oh no#its the consequences of his actions#everything is fine until the only man on the star you care about looks at you with the same contempt your father did#(Meteor's not doing it intentionally- its a reflex after he comes back for quite a bit)#and zenos is getting bodied because its been a while since... you know... him being able to really feel anything at all#and no- its not him regretting anything that had to do with varis- just him regretting the thought meteor could look at him like that#little does Meteor know he's emotionally bodying the man he's trying to be cordial with#its a little okay because in how I write adventurer zenos this serves as one of his main wake-up calls to make some changes#and realizing both the mistakes he's made with meteor and that meteor hating him in any way is actually -not at all- what he wants#but not okay on the end that every time meteor does this he has to watch zenos actively dissociate right in front of him#until zenos just kinda autopilots and walks away#the second time (or perhaps third) in the last 11 years that zenos has felt regret to any major capacity-#on meteor's end I just enjoy seeing the progression of the WoL through subtext#and why meteor is willing to even entertain the idea despite how much he hates zenos- his decisions and the path he's walked#is the realization that there is high chance that he could actually be a direct catalyst for zenos' growth#and the realization the wol has that they were the only one zenos has ever genuinely reached out to#besides- i just like the idea of having your equal other half fighting back to back with you- or being able to handle threats you cant#and i find their dynamic neat- of meteor not forgiving zenos but giving him his last chance- and growing to enjoy being around him#and zenos being able to work on moving past being the weapon or the monster- finding the connections he's longed for#and giving himself purpose to finally truly just live- for him to learn to experience and have the freedom to find what he enjoys#(and curiously him having estinien's brand of accidently helping people even in StB gives me ideas...)#but enough tag ranting- ill get to zenos' actual adventuring in another post lol

it doesnt need to be said but its genuinely so funny how at-the-hip charles and erik are in krakoa like they really had the green light- the OBLIGATION- to be as obnoxiously close to each other as possible and abused that right to the fullest extent
#xmen#xmen comic#krakoa#cherik#snap chats#until the divorce of course but until then its actually so funny#how you really couldnt go a page or two without one or the other and the other one was close behind#ice climber ass duo over here. the delightful children from down the lane kind of proximity what the fuck was their PROBLEM#i feel like if one of them was teleported the other would just materialize right next to them thats how close they were#fuuuck what was the issue where sabretooth and co are in like. Brain Prison or something#and victor imagines charles but everyones like 'wait its weird if its just him where's magneto'#ITS SO FUCKING FUNNY and i NEED to know what issue that was .... to add it to my collection ....#also killed me how in immoral x-men issue 1 charles was yappin bout erik bein gone#and- God Bless Who i forget i think it was hope- was just 'can you please shut up about your dead boyfriend im begging you'#moira stronger than me if i had to deal with thing 1 and thing 2 on a daily basis i woulda snapped sooner frankly#ig when you live ten times through The Most Bullshit ever youre numb to most things but still. my god theyre so obnoxious#sorry im cackling at the bit in HoX where charles is about to announce krakoa to the world and erik's putting his hand on his shoulder#and you justs see moira in the back like dawgggg right in front of her .... can you two get a room#GENUINELY no im GENUINELY surprised they dont share a bedroom#im not even talking sharing a bed im taking my shipper goggles off im actually baffled they dont sleep in the same building#obvi id be lyin if i said i didnt love it tho To Be Real .. genuinely love seein them work together as a team .. until they werent </3#in every timeline they WILL divorce each other that's just the rule. actual canon event it cannot be changed or stopped its integral#ok ramble over. but not really not in spirit cause ill never be over this ill die before i am#im gonna go eat now i think i think thats something i As A Human has to do at least once a day

Mikey couldnโ€™t do anything right now. Likeโ€ฆanything.
Wellโ€ฆperhaps he was being aย bitย tooย dramatic.ย He wasย breathing.ย And he wasย fidgeting with his squishy cube.ย So saying he wasnโ€™t doingย 'anything'ย wasnโ€™t entirely true.
Right now he justโ€ฆcouldnโ€™t do anythingโ€ฆproductive.ย 
For example, the box turtleย triedย making his favorite dishes and deserts! Butย thatย endeavor just ended up being aย hugeย messย in the kitchenโ€ฆandย leaving the youngest turtle with aย bunchย of unappetizing food.ย 
Which he fed all to Raph by the way.ย 
Some would call that choice of action cruel but Mikey would just call itย 'using his resources'.ย 
Besides, itโ€™s not like the eldest minded at all. He said, and I quote:ย 'It has a niceโ€ฆcrunchyย feeling to it. Did you put some of Donโ€™s inventions in this?'
Which honestly got a couple of chuckles out of the smallest turtle teen of the bunch.
Then, Mikeyย triedย skateboarding! But for once in all his 14 years of livingโ€ฆit was just utterlyย boring.ย 
And after all of that nonsense, Mikey thenย finallyย triedย reading a comicโ€ฆbut he was too unfocused to even get to theย second pageโ€ฆ
But what wasย reallyย new? Mikey could never focus on jackshit even if said jackshit hit himย rightย in the shell.ย 
His brothers and sister would always have to remind him toย stay focusedย orย 'not do this'ย orย 'not do that'.
For example, a couple days ago Donnie had toย kindlyย remind the box turtle (wellโ€ฆas kindly asย Donnie could be anywayโ€ฆ) to brush his teeth.
To. Brush. His.ย Fucking. Teeth.ย 
And honestly? Having to be reminded to do that wasย reallyย embarrassing. And the orange banded teenย knewย his brother didnโ€™tย meanย to humiliate him internallyโ€ฆbutโ€ฆyeah.
And itโ€™s not like the softshell wasย wrongย either! The youngest turtle just couldnโ€™t freaking accept that he himself couldnโ€™t do such a simple task in the morning.ย 
But literallyย every taskย heย completely fails to doย is justย utterly simple ones!
Like cleaning his room or not forgetting things or even keeping track of time!ย 
โ€ฆAnd the sad part about all of it was Mikey justย honestlyย couldย notย understandย how his family havenโ€™t gotten sick of his annoying tendenciesโ€ฆ
And letโ€™s be for real hereโ€ฆthat was basicallyย allย of his tendencies.ย 
The box turtle groaned loudly in his room, slamming his whole body on his bed as heย screamedย into his pillow.ย 
There had to beย somethingย he could do instead of just wallowing in his own self pityโ€ฆ
And one of those options couldย notย consist of bothering his family with his random bad mood. They had to put up with him 24/7โ€ฆtheย leastย he could do was give them some space.
The youngest then glanced at his drawing notebook hopefullyโ€ฆ
โ€ฆOne little sketch of something random wouldnโ€™t hurt, right?
The amber eyed teen reached for his notebook, grabbing a pen from his drawer as he started to sketch his desk becauseย why the absoluteย fuckย not?ย Based on the objects heโ€™s drawn in the pastโ€ฆsketching a simple desk should and will beย easy,ย right? Right.ย 
Thatย wasย until the orange banded teenโ€™s pencil tip broke.ย But it wasย fine!ย He could just re-sharpen it,ย right?ย Right.
Thatย wasย until the youngest realized he had absolutely no clue where his sharpener was due to the fact his room looked like a pig stie. And there wasย no wayย he was looking for it inโ€ฆthat whole situation.ย 
โ€ฆThe situation he created in the first place.ย 
Michelangelo layed on his bed with his face staring at the ceiling in frustration, he ran his fingernails along his arms, not making really deep cuts with them but going deep enough for it to hurt a bit.
Like a reasonable turtle would, Mikey should probably get one of his stress toysโ€ฆor better yet,ย another pencil!
But letโ€™s be for real hereโ€ฆheโ€™d most likely find a way to fuck that up too.
Suddenly, there was a small, quiet knock on Mikeyโ€™s door butโ€ฆin all honesty? He just wanted to crawl into his shell and sob for the next hour and a half. Letting out a niiiiice and quick 'come in' would takeย wayย too much energy.ย 
The box turtle let out a soft grunt, letting whoever was on the other side know it was a-okay to come in.
Abruptly, Leo peeked in the room, a wide smile plastered on his face as he closed the door, โ€œDamn, Mikesterโ€ฆit looks like every single natural disaster went through your roomโ€ฆโ€
โ€œIโ€™m cleaning it.โ€ The youngest grumbled to his brother.
โ€œReally?ย Youย sureย about that, little bro? Because if my memory serves me correctย (which it in-fact does), you said thatย last week.ย And the week before thatโ€ฆand the week beforeโ€”โ€œ
โ€œI SAID Iโ€™M FUCKING CLEANING IT!!!โ€ The orange banded turtle snapped, sitting up on the bed to glare at his immediate older brother before slowly realizing what he just did.ย 
The youngestโ€™s heart dropped as he looked away from his brother. The orange banded mutantโ€™s eyed widened as silent and small tears ran down his face. He covered his mouth as his other hand turned to a fist, his nailsย unforgivinglyย digging into his palm.
โ€œI-Iโ€™m sorryโ€ฆIโ€™m s-sorryโ€ฆI-Iโ€™m so s-sorryโ€ฆ!โ€ He started, rocking himself back and forth before stopping as he was met with a warm embrace. Leonardo hugged him gently but firmly, rubbing the otherโ€™s shell in a comforting hold. โ€œWoah woahโ€ฆ! Bud, you have nothing to apologize forโ€ฆโ€ The slightly older teen said as he rested his chin on the top of his baby brotherโ€™s head.
โ€œL-Like h-hell I donโ€™t. I-I just screamed a-at y-you forย noย reasonโ€ฆโ€ Michelangelo wobbly said. โ€œYou were just trying to lighten the mood but I justย hadย to make everything harder like I-I always doโ€ฆ!โ€ย 
โ€œMikeyโ€”โ€
โ€œI-I alwaysย do this.ย I-Iโ€™m so f-fucking s-sorry Leoโ€ฆโ€
โ€œMikesterโ€ฆI-I appreciate the apology but it seriously isnโ€™t necessaryโ€”โ€
โ€œYouโ€™re probably soย sickย of me and soย angryย at me. I-Iโ€™m sorry I justโ€”โ€
โ€œMikey!โ€ Leo gently yelled to get the otherโ€™s attention, squeezing the smaller turtleโ€™s hands as he stared straight at him with pleading eyes. โ€œDo Iย lookย mad?โ€
โ€œโ€ฆN-No.โ€
โ€œDo Iย soundย mad?โ€
โ€œโ€ฆNo.โ€ย 
The second youngest sadly smiled, โ€œSo what are you apologizing for, hm?โ€
โ€œโ€ฆI-Iโ€ฆdunnoโ€ฆI-I justโ€ฆI just felt I needed to apologizeโ€ฆโ€ The box turtle mumbled as he looked at his hands. The blue banded turtle sighed, slowly getting out of the hug so him and his little brother faced each other. The slider rubbed the other turtleโ€™s palm with his thumb comfortingly, โ€œโ€ฆDo you wanna talk about it, baby bro?โ€
The leader in blue was just met with silenceโ€ฆwhich he could honestly work with.
โ€œAngeloโ€ฆyou know you can tell meโ€ฆanything,ย right? Likeโ€ฆanything.ย Although, it doesnโ€™tย haveย to beย meย you talk to about it. It could be Raph or Don or April or even Dad or Draxum! I justโ€ฆdonโ€™t want you sitting here and bottling up the way you feelโ€ฆโ€ย 
Silence. Leo continued.
โ€œYouโ€™re always there when we need you, Angel. Whether itโ€™s to vent or to just ramble about shit, youโ€™re justโ€ฆalways there.ย We donโ€™t tell you this enough but we appreciate you always being someone we can lean onโ€ฆโ€
Silence. Leo continued.
โ€œButโ€ฆyou do know you can lean on us too, right?ย Comfort goes both ways and I can see youโ€™re hurting, buddy. Soย pleaseโ€ฆif you need to talk to meโ€ฆIโ€™m right here.โ€
Mikey sniffled, squeezing Leoโ€™s hand, โ€œI-I d-dunno. Today is justโ€ฆweird.ย This wholeย weekย has just beenโ€ฆweird.โ€ Leo nodded, giving his brother his full undivided attention, โ€œHow so?โ€
โ€œI justโ€ฆhavenโ€™t been able to do anythingโ€ฆโ€ The smaller teen admitted.
โ€œWhat do you mean?โ€ The taller teen inquired.ย 
โ€œI havenโ€™t been able to doโ€ฆanything.ย Like, I canโ€™t draw, cook or even skateboard!ย Me!!!ย Not being able toย skateboardโ€”ย isnโ€™t that crazy?!โ€ The amber eyed turtle laughed bitterly.
โ€œAnd itโ€™s not like Iย canโ€™tย do it. Iโ€™m perfectly freaking capable of doing it in the right amount of time I want but my brainย just. wonโ€™t. let. me!โ€ย 
โ€œI keep procrastinating and not doing the stuff I want to do and I have no ideaย why!ย Iโ€™mย tiredย of just putting things off and being this way! I want to do thingsย withoutย having to ask you guys for help or to remind me or to relate it with a hyperfixation that I have!โ€ Mikey hiccuped, a new wave of tears rolling down his face as his hands shook.ย 
The amber eyed teen sniffled, refusing to look at his immediate older brother at all right now becauseโ€ฆholyย shitย he just overshared a whole lotโ€ฆ
Likeโ€ฆaย whooooooooooleย freaking lot.
โ€œโ€ฆThat sounds like you.โ€ Leonardo shrugged.ย 
In a state of just shock and confusion, the box turtle pulled his hands away from his brother, looking up at him as lime green eyes met amber ones. โ€œIโ€ฆwhatโ€ฆ?โ€ Michelangelo murmured.
โ€œIย saidย that sounds like you.โ€ Leo said again casually as Mikey glared at him, โ€œYeah. Iย heardย what you said but that isnโ€™t helpful.โ€
โ€œIโ€™m just being honest with you, Mikester.โ€ Leo said, โ€œJustโ€ฆlet me explain, okay?โ€
โ€œโ€ฆYou have five minutes before I kick you out of my room.โ€ย 
โ€œDeal.โ€ The lime green eyed mutant commented, โ€œYou canโ€™t draw, cook or skateboard right now. Youโ€™re procrastinating and not doing the stuff you want to do in the time you plannedโ€ฆis that correct?โ€ย 
Michelangelo sent deathly daggers to his brotherโ€” which the other wasnโ€™t phased by at all. This time was probably theย best timeย to crawl in his own shell and just sob his eyes out becauseย what kind ofย dumbassย question was hisย dumbassย brother asking him?!
โ€œโ€ฆYes.โ€ The orange banded teen mumbled.ย 
โ€œAndโ€ฆwhy are those bad things?โ€ย 
โ€œWHY?!โ€ The box turtle huffed out a laugh of annoyance, โ€œPfftโ€”ย youโ€™re asking meย why.ย Maybe itโ€™s because itโ€™sย annoying?!ย Maybe because itโ€™sย frustratingย to deal with and Iย donโ€™tย want to burden you guys withย myย problems?! Maybe because I donโ€™t want to fucking feel orย beย this way?!โ€ The youngest shouted, breathing heavily as he finished his rant.ย 
The box turtle looked away again, silently cursing at himself for getting annoyed so easily. โ€œMikey.โ€ Leo started again, โ€œYour being too hard on yourself, okay? No one is expecting you to be at your 100% all the time.โ€ย 
โ€œWhat you just described to me; you being able to not focus or you getting bored easily or procrastinating with stuff isโ€ฆliterally you.ย Youโ€™re just being you.โ€ The slider explained as he held his baby brotherโ€™s hand in his. โ€œAnd I get it.ย Itโ€™s hard to deal with it sometimes and itโ€™s going to be hella frustrating. Likeโ€ฆsuper borderline frustrating.ย But you canโ€™t shun them away and justโ€ฆtry to ignore them, bubsโ€ฆโ€
โ€œLetโ€™s takeย moiย for example. Iโ€™m impulsive, I talk loud and lose thingsย daily.ย Those three things donโ€™t make up my whole personality but it would be super weird and off-putting if I justโ€ฆdidnโ€™t do or have those three things, right?โ€ย 
The youngest giggled wetly, โ€œYeahโ€ฆit would. A-And by the way, Iโ€™m still waiting for you to find that glittery pen kit I gave youโ€ฆโ€
Leonardo groaned loudly and dramatically, causing the other teen to giggle louder, โ€œIโ€™mย lookingย for it, okay?! Itโ€™s in my roomโ€ฆsomewhere.โ€ The taller mutant mused, โ€œBut anywaysโ€ฆback toย you.ย You procrastinate, you relate things to your hyperfixations and you canโ€™t do some of your favorite tasks from time to timeโ€ฆthose are some traits that make up you, is it not?โ€ย 
Mikey sniffled, rolling his eyes playfully due to the fact he knewย damn wellย where this was going, โ€œYeahโ€ฆโ€ย 
Leo smiled softly, seeing his younger brother was starting to get his point, โ€œI wouldnโ€™t change a single thing about you, okay? I know sometimes itโ€™s hard to deal with the things you described but you haveย usย for that.โ€ He said as his smile turned to a grin.ย 
โ€œYou can come toย meโ€”ย toย usโ€”ย anytime.ย We love you for who you areโ€ฆyour flaws and all and we justโ€ฆI-I need you to know that we love you so so muchโ€”!โ€ The slider was cut off by a sudden abrupt embrace from the box turtle. The orange banded teen sobbed into the otherโ€™s shoulder, clutching the taller turtle like a lifeline.ย 
โ€œT-Thank youโ€ฆโ€ The box turtle wobbly said through tears.ย ย 
โ€œOf course, Angel.โ€ Leo said as he hugged his baby brother back, โ€œI love you.โ€ He said as he kissed the other teen on the head.
โ€œI-I l-love you tooโ€ฆโ€
.
.
.
.
.
.
โ€œTell your thoughts to shut up.โ€ Leo said as he lightly poked Mikey in the forehead numerous times. The two were sitting on the box turtleโ€™s bed just simplyโ€ฆrelaxing and enjoying each otherโ€™s company.ย Michelangelo was sitting in between his older brotherโ€™s legs as he had his shell to his brotherโ€™s plastron.
Leonardo hugged his brother protectively, resting his chin on the top of the box turtleโ€™s head. โ€œWhat do you mean?โ€ The youngest giggled out. โ€œI canย hearย your thoughts, man. Youโ€™re not bothering me or disturbing me in any way, shape or form, alrightโ€ฆ?โ€ย 
The amber eyed turtle nodded, squeezing Leoโ€™s hand, โ€œY-Yeahโ€ฆI know...โ€ย 
โ€œIโ€™mย choosingย to be here becauseย I love you.ย I donโ€™t feel obligated to be here, okay? Youโ€™re not annoying and you, neither your problems are a burdenโ€ฆokay?โ€ The slider said reassuringly, โ€œItโ€™s okay to ask us for helpโ€ฆand we donโ€™t mind reminding you to do thingsโ€ฆokay?โ€ย 
โ€œYouโ€™ve said โ€˜okayโ€™ like,ย fifty timesโ€ฆโ€
โ€œMikey.โ€ย 
โ€œMhmโ€ฆyeah yeahโ€ฆI gotchaโ€ฆโ€
The elder looked at his brother skeptically, resting his chin on his little brotherโ€™s shoulder so they made solid eye contact, โ€œI want you to say it.โ€ย 
โ€œโ€ฆSayย whatย exactly?โ€
โ€œI want you to say that you are anย amazing personย and you donโ€™t need to change aย single thingย about yourself.โ€ย 
โ€œYouย are an amazing person andย youย donโ€™t need to change a single thing aboutย yourself.โ€ Michelangelo grinned smugly. Leonardo glared at the youngestโ€™s interpretation to his statement, โ€œMikey, you know exactly what I meant.โ€ย 
โ€œI said what you wanted me to sayโ€ฆsoโ€ฆโ€ The amber eyed teen trailed off.
โ€œMichelangelo.โ€ The slider said in a warning tone as he poked the otherโ€™s side. The box turtle squeaked at the unexpected touch, trying to stop his immediate older brother from doing it again but his brother had a strong but gentle grip on himโ€ฆ
Then the smallest turtle came to recognition that he was stuck in aย potentialย tickle hug with no way outโ€ฆ
โ€ฆHow wonderful.ย 
โ€œL-Leeheeoโ€ฆdoohooย nahat.โ€ The orange banded mutant warned through his giggles, said warning not seemingย tooย threatening due to the fact he was already laughing up a storm. The leader in blue raised a brow, poking the otherโ€™s side repeatedly, โ€œI just want you to repeat what I saidโ€ฆin theย first person.โ€ The taller teen specified.
The smaller turtle squirmed in the hug, small frantic giggles pouring out of his mouth.ย Thisโ€ฆreally wasnโ€™t how he was expecting his day to go.ย Just about an hour ago, he was wallowing in sadness about the stuff he hated about himself, toย talking about itย with his brother, to now gettingย tickledย by his brother.
โ€ฆSo could heย reallyย complain about how things turned out?
โ€ฆYes. Yes, heย absolutelyย could.ย ย 
โ€œLeeheeon!ย Plehease dohonโ€™t!โ€ The youngest squealed as one of his brotherโ€™s hands hovered over his stomach. Mikey held onto the otherโ€™s wrists, trying to stop his elder brother from tickling him but his small attempts ending up to be all for nothing as Leo effortlessly tickled his stomach with one hand.
โ€œLEEHEEHAHAHA!!โ€ Michelangelo laughed wholeheartedly, swatting at his brotherโ€™s arms. The lime green eyed turtle cooed at the gesture, now using both of his hands to attack the youngestโ€™s plastron, โ€œD'awwโ€ฆlook at you giggling your head off~! Youโ€™re my adorable little bundle of amazingness, arenโ€™t you~?โ€
The smaller teen shook his head, a faint blush appearing on his face, โ€œSTAHAโ€” squeal N-NAHAHA!โ€
โ€œWhat~? What was that?โ€ The blue banded mutant asked as he kneaded the box turtleโ€™s hips. โ€œGYAHAHโ€” squealย SHIHIHIT!ย COHOME OHAHAN!!!โ€ The amber eyed turtle cried frantically as he kicked his legs on the mattress slightly.ย 
The youngest squealed with laughter, curling in on himself as he slumped in his big brotherโ€™s hold. Leonardo just sighed fondly at the action, wrapping the other in another hug as he raspberried his neck. โ€œLEEHEEHEE!! PLAHAHโ€” squeak NAHAHAT THEHERE squeak PLEHEASE PLEHEASEโ€” squeak!!!โ€
โ€œNot there~?โ€ The elder lightly mocked, โ€œWhat aboutโ€ฆhere~?โ€ He mused as he used his hands to scribble all over the younger turtleโ€™s ribs. Mikey cackled, shaking his head to try and atย leastย subside the tickly feelings.
โ€œNAHAHAโ€” squeal AHAHAHA!! NAHAHAT THEHEHERE EHEโ€” squeal EHEHEITHER!!! LEEHEEO!!โ€ The orange banded turtle squeaked as Leo stopped for a second, โ€œIโ€™ve triedย soooooย many spots, buddy! How many times are you gonna say not there, hm?โ€
Mikey genuinely squawked louder than a firefighter siren, squirming so much it looked like he was actually being electrocuted. โ€œPLEHEHAHA LEEHEEO NAHAHAT THEHEHE RIHIHIBS!!!โ€ He cackled.ย 
โ€œNot the riiiibs~? Why~? Is it because itโ€™s yourย tickleย spot~? Yourย tickletickletickleย spot~? Because youโ€™reย ticklish~?โ€ Leonardo asked as he lightly nibbled the crook of Mikeyโ€™s neck.ย 
Michelangelo screamed in laughter, scrunching up his shoulders as he dug his heels on the bed, a couple of his plushies sadly falling on the floor (R.I.P. manโ€ฆ) โ€œEEEHEEHEEP!!!ย S-STAHAP BEEHEEING MEEHEAN!โ€ Mikey said as he thrashed on the bed.ย 
The slider said nothing, his hands sneaking up to the box turtleโ€™s underarms. โ€œAAAAHAHAHA!ย OHO NOHOHOโ€” squeak SHIT! SHIHIHAHAT!โ€
Happy tears slowly begin to appear in the smallest teenโ€™s eyes, he weakly hit Leoโ€™s arms as a last attempt to be set free, โ€œLEHEHEMME squeal GOHOHOHO!โ€ย 
โ€œOhonly if you sahay it, bubs.โ€ย 
โ€œIHIHIโ€” SQUEAK!! LEEHEEHEEON!!!โ€ย 
โ€œYeeeees, baby brother~?โ€ The elder dragged out as he kneaded the otherโ€™s hips.
โ€œIHIโ€™LL SAHAY IHIHAT I-IHIHIโ€™LL SAHAHAY IHIT!!โ€ The amber eyed teen squealed.ย 
โ€œAnd you promise not to be a sassy little shit about it~?โ€ The older teen asked.
โ€œSQUEAK YEHAHAHAโ€” SQUEAK YEHES YEHES I-I PROHOHOMISE!โ€ย 
Leo stopped tickling his little brother, hugging him protectively as the youngest caught his breath slowly but surely. โ€œW-Wahaitโ€ฆwhahat squeak wahas ihihat yohou eeheeven wahanted me squeak to sahay again?โ€ย 
The taller turtle pondered for a bit, thinking to himself before loudly groaning, โ€œThatโ€™sโ€ฆa good damn question. I donโ€™t really remember exactly what I wanted you to say in the first placeโ€ฆโ€ The lime green eyed turtle sighed, โ€œForgetfulness at its finest...โ€ย 
The red eared slider adjusted himself, making sure the other was comfortable before starting to speak again, โ€œWellโ€ฆbased on what we talked aboutโ€ฆcould you maybe justโ€ฆy'knowโ€ฆโ€ Leo gestured with his hands before groaning, โ€œDo you get what Iโ€™m trying to say, man?โ€ย 
โ€œโ€ฆI thihink I have ahan ideaโ€ฆโ€ Mikey giggled as he fiddled with his hands, โ€œI shouldnโ€™t beat myself up so much because of some of my traits or quirks. And Iโ€™mย allowedย to feel frustrated and/or upset because things donโ€™t go my way because of them. Butโ€ฆI shouldnโ€™t allow those things to put me down...โ€
Michelangelo smiled softly, rubbing his palm with his thumb, โ€œThey donโ€™t define me as a person but theyย makeย me a person. I donโ€™t need to be at my best 100% and Iโ€™mย allowedย to have bad days. And if things get too overwhelming or difficult I can just go to you guys.โ€ย 
Mikey hugged himself, letting out a small laugh as his happy tears welled up in his eyes, โ€œIโ€™m justโ€ฆbeing me.ย And thereโ€™s nothing wrong with that.โ€ Leonardo teared up at his brotherโ€™s words, hugging him tighter than he ever had before and burying his face at the back of the youngestโ€™s head.
โ€œNever forget that, Miguelitoโ€ฆnever forget that.โ€ย

for the ask game
tim creates a clone of kon, but this is dicktim tim has to carry the fetus or breastfeed it, but dick suddenly gets a mommy kink and immediately falls in love
for the ask game!
DICKTIM MOMMY KINK. how did you know i have such a thing for just about any Batcest ship where the other person calls Tim mommy. i don't even know why i just think that shit is so fun.
it'd have to be Omegaverse for me, that's the only scenario i personally could write m-preg. i like the thought of no one knowing that Tim has gone on this crusade. and after 99 failures, Tim's so desperate and angry he tries in vitro fertilization. the first few times it doesn't work so he doesn't take it too seriously, at this point it's just a compulsion. he gets to a point he stops taking the pregnancy tests. so when about a month later, he's experiencing morning sickness and he's missed his heat, Tim has an 'oh, shit.' moment. and well. telling Dick first is his *natural* answer. (i think he'd also go to Steph, but in canon she'd be "dead" at this point) Tim doesn't know what to do, he didn't think he'd get this far. Dick is comforting and grounding, agreeing to help Tim hide this the best he can. Tim has to time it right, fake a bad injury so it makes sense he's benched and wearing baggy sweaters for a few months.
it's platonic at first. Dick is an alpha but his bond with Tim is more of a pack bond and he's just trying to help Tim through this awkward situation he got himself into. (and not laugh at him too much in the process bc well. only Tim. only Tim could manage this.) the pregnancy hormones have Tim all over the place. he's seeking comfort and Dick is trying to keep it platonic and professional, even when he's cuddling Tim or bringing him weird cravings at 2 am. the trust in Dick and Tim's bond makes Dick Tim's only real support system. (also just bc the Titans were a goddamn mess in this era) maybe at some point they tell Bruce the truth but Bruce is dealing with Jason so. bigger fish. it forces them closer as Dick is the only one who can help Tim with the awkward sides of pregnancy. Dick is basically living with Tim and because Tim can't satiate the itch to be in the field (he's tried sneaking out, it earned him a lecture from Dick and a warning that Dick would handcuff him to the radiator if Tim tried that again) so Tim runs comms. for anyone who asks, but mostly for Dick, to the point he's in Dick's ear even when Dick doesn't need the backup, just to keep each other company.
i think, as the pregnancy went on and Tim's chest started to fill out and his hips are bigger, that's when Dick's feeling shift. one second Tim is just his pack, the next Tim is suddenly a very pretty, very vulnerable omega that's Dick is protecting and his wires get all kinds of crossed about it. he starts dousing himself in scent blockers so Tim doesn't notice the change, can't smell how much Dick wants him. which makes Tim annoyed because Dick's scent has been a consistent calming factor keeping the worst of his hormones in check. it'd lead to an awkward fight where Dick is dancing around the truth and Tim just wants to bite him out of anger. finally, Dick admits it and. Tim kind of bluescreens bc sure he's had a crush on Dick for years, but it's sort of like your celebrity crush calling you up and asking for a date. it makes no sense and he can't wrap his head around it. he almost thinks Dick is making fun of him, because Tim is super self-conscious about the pregnancy and mortified he put himself in this situation. it takes a lot of reassurance and a long conversation, but. well, they do end up having sex.
Dick doesn't *mean* to call Tim mommy the first time. he knows Tim hates being emasculated as an omega, and knows Tim is vulnerable about being pregnant. their sex is gentle, no matter how much Tim insists he can take it because Dick doesn't want to hurt the baby, or Tim. it's when Tim finally huffs with annoyance and flips them over -reminding Dick that Tim is still trained and deadly, even like this- to take control and actually get the rough sex he needs right now, when it slips out. there's something just very pretty about Tim taking control and taking what he needs from Dick, but still being whiny and squirmy on top of him. so the first time Dick calls him mommy is an accident and they're *both* startled by just how much they like it. their sex life goes from soft and caring to *very* interesting overnight, where Dick doesn't hide how much he likes Tim's chest. and well. breastfeeding kink. for completely scientific reasons, of course. just to help the milk flow and make sure Tim's body is adjusting well. definitely not bc of the noises Tim makes when Dick does it no sir.
when Tim finally has the clone baby, they're both smitten with this tiny clone. i think they'd end up mating and either say it's Dick's baby or they adopted it. (the lie only works short term bc well, sooner or later that baby's going to start lifting trucks. not to mention Kon does come back to life and is perturbed by how much Tim's kid looks like him.) it's a very cute, fluffy happily ever after sort of deal, with plenty of mommy kink. i think Tim would be huffy and annoyed at how long he'd have to wait for sex bc in my mind, Tim uses sex as a stress relief and is very annoyed when he's deprived of it so, they'd find creative ways around it.
#necrotic festerings#dicktim#tim drake x dick grayson#dick grayson x tim drake#timdick#batcest#mpreg#nsft#to be clear i'm so not here to yuck anyone's yum about mpreg in the confines of like. normal guy giving birth#it's just not my personal wheelhouse#and tbf you could do this with trans!tim and make it work#but as an afab trans person who's infertile i won't lie. i forget afab trans ppl can have babies.#fully goes over my head.#if you ever read one of my fics and go โ€œwhy didn't they use protection he could get pregnant??โ€#know the answer is i fucking *forgot* most afab ppl are fertile.#same with periods bc i don't get mine. straight up forget everyone else does a monthly blood sacrifice.#anywhore#this one is a tad out of my wheelhouse so it was fun to think about!#bc usually i wouldn't explore an idea like this so it was a fun challenge to see how i would do it#do love that mid typing it i checked comic dates to see if steph was 'dead' and she was then i continued on like nothing happened#2006 was a weird era for comics.#i think a soft idea is a fun lil palette cleanser after the dead dove so this one was cute!!#anyway more mpreg should have just the weirdness of pregnancy#messy hormones! cravings! body changes! being unable to tie your own damn shoes!#that's the FUN of it#like dick would regularly see tim naked even before feelings bloomed just because tim needed help getting in his damn pants.#so when feelings start dick is sweating for his life helping Tim dress like. don't be suspicious. don't be suspicious.#tim in dick's clothes bc his own don't fit anymore >>>#i do love mommy kink tho it's my fave how'd you know.#fussy bottom mommy tim. how i love you.

the cats of the park is just frostpaw finally getting some therapy
tbh tho I feel like them being separate from clan life would help her immensely. Theyโ€™re not so wrapped up in this culture of battle so they have a new and refreshing perspective (and also frost doesnโ€™t have to worry about ulterior motives because they are STAYING AWAY from THAT trainwreck that is the clans)
RE: Nothing in BB!ASC is set in stone until the arc is done BUT
One excellent thing ASC has done with the Park cats that is commendable, is that they're treated as legitimate. Not inferior or malicious. They're just another culture that Frostpaw is going to learn from. The bar is UNDERGROUND but we've finally hopped over it.
So I'd want to keep and acknowledge that.
I think I might have an interesting idea for Frostpaw's journey. Also, side note... I'm thinking BB!ASC will rename every book because these titles are actually awful, im sorry. So I'd call this one ASC: The Source of the River
Gonna jot these down;
So, to begin with, Frostpaw calls the human. While being heavily sedated, she has her first vision of Riverstar.
FROSTPAW DOES NOT HAVE A SPECIAL CONNECTION TO STARCLAN.
She NEVER would. Screw that. Instead-- learning to connect to this vision of Riverstar, to her ancestors and their wisdom, is a SKILL she would learn.
Frame the journey less as Riverstar's Side Quest and more as Frostpaw chasing the Revelation she had while anesthetized.
So when she wakes up, she's thinking about how incomprehensibly VAST Riverstar was. She can't even imagine how there's enough space in the world to contain such a being.
Even the Lake itself... the lake is just a droplet, being suckled like a kit on the teat of the Southern Inlet river
For a second, her troubles seemed like a small flea on the nose of a great, cosmic being. But as she reconnects with the mortal plane after her dream, the flea becomes an infestation. She doesn't know where to begin, or how she can save her Clan.
She thinks back to Riverstar. The river that feeds the Lake. Was that what he was trying to tell her? That she has to follow it to the source?
STOP 1: RIVER WARD
The BB!Tribe is massively overhauled. The Tribe of Rushing Water defines themselves as three Wards (Cave, Mountain, River), connected by living on the same stretch of river.
From them, she learns about connections. They are simply able to call upon each other for all they need, there's no need to "appoint" someone to manage everything.
Families and friends hold each other accountable, networking and negotiating constantly. When the group must act as one, it casts stones.
Their Stoneteller is a religious leader, but all cats connect with their ancestors by personally interpreting omens, even without needing to go see him.
(Contrast to BB!Clans, whose Clerics are the KEEPERS of holy knowledge, and it is a sin to interpret StarClan's will on your own)
Yet, there are downsides. She can see ostracised cats who skirt at the edges of the Ward, especially the descendants of a particular group (called Flicks) that she learns once tried to invade the River Ward.
Though they welcome travellers and have a positive view of Clan cats as "family," she learns that they freeze out those who break taboo. Even for smaller offenses-- social faux pas and personal disputes have caused rifts within the Ward.
And the personal omen interpretation means that two cats can try and justify their feelings with religious commands, leveraging any "soothsayer" (particularly religious cats) connections they have like a social pissing match, unless they're both willing to get dragged to Stoneteller.
From all this, Frostpaw learns that she CAN connect to Riverstar and her ancestors, even if she can't speak to them... and that she must LISTEN. Not allow herself to twist her ancestor's words.
And all the Wards are connected, by the source of a river. Suddenly she answers her question.
"How could the world be big enough to contain a being like Riverstar?" Because water isn't all in one place. It's everywhere. It pools where it can and flows where it cannot.
And yet-- a single people is connected by its water. Three wards, one River. Five Clans, one Lake... three siblings, one belly.
Her heart aches thinking about Curlfeather.
She thinks of when quarreling Tribemates are brought to Stoneteller to arbitrate, and be taught the truth. Brought up the river, to its source at the waterfall.
That has to be it! The source, the BEGINNING.
Stop 2 would be WarriorClan as she heads south, but I'm not sure what they'd teach her yet lmao. Monkeystar says "Hi! Do you want to learn how to play a kazoo"
STOP 3... I'd want to rename the Park Cats. Maybe the New Park cats.
(evil brain: "Neopark. Make terrible petsite joke. Be reincarnated as a lotus flower)
There would also be a BIG recap of Ancient Park culture, and the River Kingdom. Frostpaw knows they had KINGS.
And a lot of aspects that modern Clan cats have-- ceremonial sparring, mentors and apprentices, the Law of the Deputy... those came out of the River Kingdom, before its collapse in the Code Era.
But these cats are NOTHING like the glorious tales of a Kingdom warrior. In fact... this is THE park!
THE park that was destroyed, which King Arc-of-Park lead his people away from. How could it have been ruined if it's still here?
(Reality: the Park was shrunk and landscaped. It was destroyed in that time to the perspective of cats. Maybe she'll have some visions of the past through meditation...)
But the survivors, and those who chose not to follow their King... they remained. And they continue to thrive.
Like canon, have them teach her the ability to meditate. Unlike Tribe cats, meditation is about SIGNS, not OMENS. Omens are physical. Signs are psychic.
(Also i like Bee so im probably gonna keep him as Frosty's yoga coach)
She sees Riverstar a few times, has details of Curlfeather's scheme revealed to her in enough chunks to piece together,
but is eventually bowled over when her best, most productive meditation yet... results in a black shadow.
He has a shining pearlstone adorning his head, and deep, wet pools for eyes. Very few other features can be made out, besides his paw, which is shockingly normal compared to his wraith-like body.
Somehow, Frostpaw understands she is looking at a Patron. But she doesn't know who he is until he tells her, he is King Arc-of-Park.
Though remembered, he is not invoked often. The details of his appearance are lost. All that remains of him is his paw-- carried on in a few expressions and the -paw suffix. The one which Frostpaw herself currently bears.
Since Riverstar, his beloved son, so rarely speaks in straightforward terms, he has come to give Frostpaw her answers.
But before she speaks, trembling with desire for finally FINALLY getting the truth, almost frozen by the sheer volume of things she needs to know, he stops and tells her,
"You have earned the truth, Frostpaw. Be not afraid to ask for what you are owed-- but we only have time for three questions, and I shall ask three in turn."
Question 1: "What did you need me to learn?"
"Many things. How to find your own answers. The perspective of the thousand eyes you've met. The wisdom that only a pilgrimage can bestow. I, too, was no leader before I brought my people up the river, and now you too must save RiverClan. Have you learned what we sought to teach?"
She feels unsure... "I don't think I can know if I have, until I go home."
Even though he has no mouth, she can hear his smile, "That is a yes, child."
Question 2: "What am I learning about RiverClan and its history, if these New Park cats are nothing like my Kingdom ancestors?"
He hums, "You have come to the source of the river, and are vexxed to not find the water that is already swirling downstream? No cat stands in the same river twice, for it is not the same river, and they are not the same cat. Are my people gone, Frostpaw, or do they live on?"
Stunned, her jaw hangs open ever so slightly. She thought she knew the answer right away, but his simple question becomes a riddle on her tongue.
He tells her not to worry. She does not need to answer his questions immediately, as they're running out of time. Ask your last.
Question 3: "...did my mom love me?"
IMMEDIATE, "she did. Child of my distant blood, she loved you like a king loves his prince. Ferociously, ambitiously... selfishly."
He cradles her face in his one, massive, silk-soft paw, like he's reaching out of the shadows, across time itself. His last question, "She put you in a terrible position, didn't she?"
A lifetime's worth of love and agony bubbles out of the kid, "SHE DID. She DID and I never did ANYTHING to deserve this, I did everything she told me, and I just wanted to make her happy, and... and i miss my mom."
When she returns from her trance, she's crying.
But her companions are here to help her unpack all of what she just learned.
Will probably end up letting her recruit a little DND party lmao... maybe one cat from each pit stop. Heartstar shouldn't be the only girlie who's allowed to get expansion packs.
Make a little found family here that Frostpaw returns home with.
RE: NOT. CONFIRMED YET. NONE of this is BB canon yet. Just thoughts I need to get down.

The Dobrynin family is a corpo family through and through, rooted in Arasaka and Orbital Air going back by several generations; though their powerful position within the corporate world ends with the children of Nadya and Matvey Dobrynin. With Vitali and Daniil fired from Arasaka and Kang Tao respectivelyโ€” the former indirectly getting his parents fired, tooโ€” and Roksana having refused to set foot within a megacorporation from the start, the family begins crumbling apart at the very seams when clashing interests lead to grudges, betrayal, and pointless acts of revenge. โ†ณ read the unrevised fic here if you're interested!

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
When I found out that @chessman-protocol boy Crit liked Astronomy, letโ€™s just say I was beyond estatic and immediately planned this little comic. Hereโ€™s to my boy Vincent doing his best to make friends with folks who share similar interests ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ’™
Funny enough, I didnโ€™t realize I put this in Vincent characterโ€™s until I looked at the whole thing, but Vincent very much shares the lack of stranger danger the way I did/ I do to this day. To quote one of my past managers Iโ€™m โ€œabnormally friendlyโ€ or whatever
I canโ€™t tell you how many times even as a small child (drove my parents nuts) that I saw a cool person with whatever connecting factor and I just straight up walked to them and was like โ€œOk cool. Weโ€™re friends now.โ€ And nobodyโ€™s really stopped me? So apparently I have friends now. ๐Ÿ˜†
Vincent however is just a wholesome baby boy who doesnโ€™t realize heโ€™s actually an intimidating hunk of a turtle and randomly walking up to strangers and not saying anything can be taken the wrong way.
Like I said, heโ€™s trying his best. He wasnโ€™t exactly the most socialized if you canโ€™t tell, but he does love dearly and is certainly a boone of a friend to have once you get past the inevitable social awkwardness. Heโ€™s loyal to put because he really doesnโ€™t know better, and I adore him for that. Anyway, dunno if Crit knows any ASL or not, but either way Vincent is just excited to meet somebody else who likes space โœจ๐ŸŒŒ ๐Ÿ’™

So I was asked to expand on the whole Jamil having a trauma response to Leona comment on my last post, aaand here's that.
(This pertains to chapter 6 btw, so spoiler warning)
(also it's very much sleep deprived rambling so sorry if it's, well, rambly)
First off, I'm operating under the assumption that he has cPTSD. Jamil has clearly been programmed since birth to always obey the Asims and act in their best interests, even at the expense of his own life. This is a boy who has been forced to eat poison to protect them and their assets, who's family was forced to let that happen, and who has been so desperate his entire life to escape that situation that he was willing to resort to murder and doom not just himself but his whole family which he is implied to care about. Which means if simply quitting was an option, he would have done so. So, you kinda have to infer that he and his family don't have a choice in this role, and there are severe enough consequences for disobedience that fucking up or refusing is a worse option than risking a slow painful death every time Kalim wants to eat something. And this is all stuff that's been depicted blatantly in canon, not even touching on the assumptions that could be made from there.
So that's the position Jamil is in. That is a traumatic situation. This is a guy who has been groomed for servitude and obedience since he was old enough to talk. These kinds of circumstances absolutely can lead someone to be triggered into subservience or other trained behaviors. That's just, a thing with trauma.
Now, with the Asims being one of if not THE most powerful merchant families in their country, one of the expectations of Jamil as their servant and especially as the attendant to their heir is to ensure good relationships with other rich and powerful families, especially royalty. This was shown in the fireworks event, where he states that as a prince, if Malleus came to any harm under his watch while a guest of the Asims, it could start an international conflict. These are incredibly high stakes, a misstep on Jamil's part could ruin the Asim family and potentially even endanger his country, and it's pretty strongly implied that he and his family would take the blame and suffer the consequences. Now, much like how wearing a company logo while at work makes your actions representative of your employer, Jamil serving the Asims 24/7 (and especially as the chaperone of their heir) means that he is representing their family At All Times. This is why he is forced to defer to Kalim in all aspects of life even outside of their country, part of his job is to make his employers look good, and there are consequences for not doing so. This means that anyone of high enough status to be significant to the Asims is someone who Jamil is required to be subordinate to.
Then, enter Leona. As a wealthy prince, he would be someone who Jamil is expected maintain good relations with at any cost to himself. With his position Leona could literally destroy Jamil's (and probably his family's) entire life with a single complaint to the Asims about his conduct. Like, he could do that with no actual cause just for fun, because the Asims are 100% going to take the side of a prince over an expendable servant. This means that one misstep or any backtalk from Jamil puts him at massive risk, it is entirely up to Leona whether or not he suffers for any of these actions, and while the audience knows Leona's personal morals would prevent him from actually doing that, Jamil does not.
THEREFORE (sorry this ended up so long), once Jamil was in a life threatening situation with Leona, it seems likely that all this programming and fear would manifest in desperately trying to protect him and follow orders the way he's always done for Kalim. To me, the way he snapped into bodyguard mode, and immediately complied with every one of Leona's bitchy commands (like giving him a hair ornament to throw away without question, and barely saying anything about it after), even while being humiliated and knowing he was less trained in magic, just comes off more like a trigger response than anything. Especially because I can't imagine that situation not being triggering, and I can't imagine him knowing any other way to respond.

Stuck behind the mirror from disobeying perhaps?#I was pretty hard on him last time that he'd just Immediately give up his soul for cheap tricks but like - would he?#Yes he's reckless and foolish but he's also stubborn and prideful and hates being told what to do so there's that lol#Which does he want more! The high or his freedom to refuse? I could see it going either way#And for Dex's sake I would hope he'd refuse!

Watch I'll make another one with the ideas mentioned here and then talk about more ideas in those tags pft#Since agreeing with him didn't work how about shaming?
