[thisrots]

♡⋆.࿐࿔ omegaverse for our fav girls!

sevika:

- obviously a dominant alpha. no question or doubt about it

- would not hesitate to mark you the second she had the opportunity to, even if you bitched about it, that only made her want to do it again!

- she’d always take care of you and make sure to keep you safe. that was her goal in life, to be your protector. would go with you everywhere, cook for you, bathe you, etc. you’re definitely her soft spot (would def growl at whoever looked at you for too long). also! would NOT allow you to take heat suppressants, saying that she was your alpha and could take care of that little issue for you (and takes care of it VERY WELL)

- would purposely leave her pheromones on you, especially when you were heading out somewhere, letting everyone know that you belonged to her. not that they didn’t already know that to begin with, i mean, she made sure to make that known (everyone knew you as ‘Sevika’s girl’ owo)

- went into ruts religiously. like, every other week. would drill into you and come inside every time, fucking you anywhere and everywhere she wanted to. wherever it hit her, she’d find a place to rip your panties off and mate right there and then. her member would be… large, to say the least, her favorite part being the bulge poking out of your lower tummy when she’d fuck you. when you two would rut fuck at home, it’d be so rough the bed’s legs would snap, having you two out buying for a new one the next day (you two have definitely traumatized the furniture store employees). when she first knotted in you, you cried and whined, complaining of how badly she hurt inside. was more than apologetic, fucking hated herself in that moment, soothing you and kissing your tears away the best she could. again, you were always her soft spot.

jinx:

- dominant omega for sure, the omega part would make it hard for people to believe she actually has the power to destroy everything and anything (but trust… we know she can)

- would VERY MUCH be into marking, biting you everywhere and in the most visible places. also would ask to be bit back, as hard as you could (because it would turn her on).

- bossy and jealous! would tell you what to do/where to go but always join you, you know, to make sure no other omega catches your eye. and if she notices one looking, there will be hell to pay (do not underestimate her because she’s an omega). would play the ‘villain’ part outside the best she could, making others forget she was really an omega, but would melt at home the second your fingers grazed her skin.

- CONSTANT. HEAT. CYCLES. this girl is like a bunny on batteries, hole wet and ready for you always. would ask you to leave your pheromones on her so she could not only smell like you, but masturbate to the scent later if you weren’t home, making sure to continue until you walked through the door and fucked her stupid (and yes… she’d beg for you to come inside her). would also PLEAD for you to knot in her. she didn’t care how badly it hurt, she just needed to be as close to you as possible, needed to feel like she was owned. would always remind you mid fuck that you were hers, moaning and groaning it out as you were deep inside her. forcing you to say it, damn near making her finish when you did. would occasionally try to dominate you, and it would work at first, only for her to somehow end up underneath you again. at least she’d try her best!

cait:

- my girl gives beta vibes (wait hol up—hear me out!) BUT DEFINITELY DOES NOT comply to the title. was meant to be a dominant alpha, ordering everyone around, having power over everything, and her strength… yeah, no, she struggled a bit with identity crisis at first. but has learned to use it to her advantage!

- gives no fucks that she can’t really mark you, leaving purple and red bruises all over your body (where only people who could undress you would see, she respects you too much to have you walking around all bitten up).

- can’t smell pheromones, but CAN tell when they’ve been left on her. she’s a people reader, so she knows the exact face someone makes when she smells different. it frustrates her to the MAX, unless it’s you—then she smirks at the change of expression on their face, continuing the conversation like nothing (taking a mental note though, of course).

- would not give a fuck that she’s not labeled as dominant or submissive, actually, she’d take that for advantage. would fuck you senseless for hours, using her long fingers, toys, whatever she had available, no matter if you’re an alpha or omega, you’d crumble underneath her every time. even when she was taking it, cowgirl, doggy, didn’t matter what position, she somehow still had power over you. punishing you every time you took too long to make her come or for coming too soon (or without permission ;3). she had memorized everything that made you feel good. every spot, curl of her fingers, swirl of her tongue on your clit, and definitely used it against you. they were all the same to her, alphas and omegas, because at the end of the day, they’d all want to spread their legs for her.

vi:

- pretty puppy recessive alpha! strong to others yet nothing but a good girl for you.

- she’d definitely accidentally mark you during her ruts. would feel bad after, apologizing endlessly, despite you reassuring her that it was okay because you already belonged to her!

- think of having a human puppy around. would want attention, praise, pets, and would worship the ground you walk on. in public though, she’d definitely shape up and put on her big dog face (you know, to go along with the whole alpha thing).

- again, would ‘accidentally’ leave her pheromones on you half the time. though, when she would notice you talking to another alpha, would purposely push them out and swirl them around you the best she could, causing the other to choke up and wrap up the conversation. but just on accident, of course!

- her ruts happened once a month, seemingly pretty easy to deal with, right? wrong. pent up sexual frustration would eat her alive, letting it all out the second she felt the heat of the rut starting. pounding you into the mattress, no protection, cum leaking out of you from her constant orgasms. poor girl would just be so whiny though, whimpering and moaning like she was the one taking it. you’d take advantage of that, riding her until she cried from how good it felt, calling her your good girl for fucking you so well. they’d last days a time occasionally, nonstop fucking, making sure to let out every drop of cum she had inside of you. she’d be so worried about you after she snapped out of the rut haze, eyes tearing up from how sore you’d be. she’d bathe you, make your favorite meal (the best she could, not too good at cooking), and massage the soreness out of your body. you’d kiss and reassure her that you were okay, which didn’t mean shit to Vi, she’d spend the rest of the month making it up to you until the next rut.

Transformers Earthspark: Another Place, Another Prison

Holy shite there were so, SO many things I wanted to draw pertaining to this chapter, but drawing was being so fragging hard omg ;-; sooo this got the vibes decently enough at least hopefully llol

aaaaannnd it's a Hashtag POV chapter again! :D

She's really trying to pinpoint how the heck she feels about this junk (def difficult tryna navigate the psych issues round here), and you just might be able to guess what she lands on. Star is still not having the greatest of time, but Hashtag is here to read his aft like a book yet again. For the most part at least.

Previous Chapter: Distractions

First Chapter: The Need For Read

Next Chapter: Helm In The Cloud

Chapter 16: A Game Of Charades

Hashtag had hoped that the game night with Starscream could go better this time around. They’d had fun training together at least. They were all kinda starting to get along. Sharing music, cat videos, comics, their favorite wrestling channel–even Thrash was starting to warm up to this whole thing! Though he DID constantly try and do some silly schemes to test the sketchy seeker, the vibes weren’t malicious or anything. It was starting to feel just a bit normal again. As normal as it could be anyway. So what was the deal?

Why did Bee and Screamer have to get into some stupid fight? Now? Why was he acting all extra weird, this time?

Hashtag squinted her optics at her teacher and…potential second teacher if he stopped being dumb; while leaning her face against a servo.

“C’mon Starscream!” Bee tossed his servos in the air in exasperation at the ordeal. “You can’t hide in there just because you don’t want to lose in Uno again! It’s not THAT bad!”

Starscream was gripping the edge of the entrance to his room, and glaring like he was imagining blasting Bee’s face off. The thought made Hashtag tense. “No! That is NOT what I am afraid of you fool!” He jabbed a digit at Bee. Now…he did actually look oddly on edge come to think of it. “Enjoy your ridiculous games, and leave me out of it! Don’t try to act like my absence will be some tragedy. I’m sure all will go far smoother without–” His optics flickered with some weird mix of red and purple in them–kind of energon-ish color? That was new–and he held his head as his wings went all spazzy. 

Bee tried to reach out but was smacked away. “Dude. Look. I don’t know if you fell in love with isolating yourself after your months of alone time in the Titan, but as your redemption officer, you GOTTA get out of there.”

Starscream ignored him and disappeared deeper into his hole in the wall. Bumblebee tried to follow, and Hashtag couldn’t hear the rest of their conversation, but it only seemed to be going in circles anyway. Bee was wrong though…Starscream has hated being alone since he’d come here. The only time she’d seen him going to hide away like this was when it seemed his social battery had been depleted like Nightshade. 

Something was really off about this. Was that corruption junk just getting to him more today? What even WAS that anyway? She still hadn’t found the right chance to ask him about it! Most of her siblings have assumed he went a bit crazy from chaos magic, being by himself with corpses he convinced himself weren’t actually dead, and that was all it was. That made sense enough, but something about it still didn’t feel right.

Eventually, Bee came back looking a mix of annoyed and concerned as he took his seat next to Dad. “He won’t listen to me.”

“What a shame.” Robby said with poorly masked sarcasm, which earned him a punch in the shoulder from Mo. “What??”

“You know what.” She crossed her arms with a tip of her head back. Mo’s signature sass at their brother would be more funny if Hashtag wasn’t so anxious right now. 

Mom leaned forward and raised a hand in a signal for them to knock it off when they’d started a staring contest. “I’m sure he’s fine. We gotta allow him the freedom to choose what he wants to do. You can’t force it, Bee.”

Bee sighed with a servo over his optics. “Yeah. You’re right. It’s just kinda my job, and all.”

Dad patted his arm reassuringly. “And you’re doing great! How ‘bout we kick the night off with some charades huh? You can be on our team!”

Bee smiled. “Alright alright.”

“The party ain’t stoppin’ for any grumpy ol’ bot!” Twitch cheered in an effort to heighten the mood as she brought forth the bowl of prompts.

Yet as they started the game with Dad rapidly throwing out guesses to Bee’s word, Hashtag’s focus just kept drifting back to Starscream. Sure, they could just leave him alone, but she had a sneaking suspicion that wasn’t actually what he wanted either. He always tried to play up the tough guy scrap, and she wasn’t buying it. Maybe she could try and talk to him. It was worth a shot, right?

Hashtag pulled Twitch aside and signaled for her to keep her voice down.

“What’s up sis? You doin’ alright?”

“Yeah! Totally…Um.” Hashtag fiddled with her digits as she parsed together how to go about this. “I’m just thinking about going over to check on Starscream. I don’t wanna bug Bee or Mom about it though. I think he might come out if I'm the one to talk to him. Or at least–I just don’t like not knowing what’s going on, y’know? So…can you fill the fam in after I bounce?” She gave her sister a pleading grin. She didn’t want to just announce her plan to everyone and potentially make Bee feel bad, or Mom to just deny her from doing it. 

Twitch looked back at the others before landing her rather serious gaze back into Hashtag’s optics, and flew closer to put a servo to her shoulder. “Tag, you know I trust you.” 

Hashtag cringed, “Please don’t let there be a “but” at the end of that sentence…”

Twitch snickered a bit. “Nah…I just want you to be careful. Send me a signal as soon as something wack starts going down. We don’t need that con tryna randomly use you as a hostage or something. Soooo I guess the only but would be–are you sure you don’t want me to come with you for backup?”

She thought about the offer for a moment. It would be nice to know Twitch was there to have her back. Screamer could still be pretty creepy sometimes, even if he seemed to be getting better. But if he’s already in anti-people mode right now, less people would probably be better. Plus, He always seemed to be extra…careful (?) when it came to Hashtag. Like…he felt bad about what happened. She didn’t know why he directed it more at her than her siblings, but she could still use that to her advantage. Twitch might just make things more complicated when she’d inevitably get protective, unfortunately.

“Yeah, I’m sure. I’ll be careful, I promise. I’ll text ya updates if he doesn’t immediately kick me out.” She chuckled. Hopefully that won’t happen, but even if he tried, she was determined to not be deterred so easily.

“You better! Your big sis worries you know!”

“A little bit too much sometimes,” Tag teased. 

Twitch flipped down a servo with a roll of her helm. “Pff, I worry the perfect amount. Now get on over there before I think about this too hard, and I’ll fill the fam in after Mo and Thrash finish their turn.” 

“Thanks sis.” They exchanged a thumbs up and split off to fill their prospective rolls.

Hashtag made her way over to Starscream’s room, suddenly feeling more hesitant the closer she got. The ceiling stars inside were set to night mode from the cycle Nightshade had set for them, but it gave more of a spooky sort of lighting that didn’t help. Especially when his optics and those weird sparks stuck out in the dark.

It’d be fine though, it was just Starscream. Not like he’d killed people, kidnapped dads, or anything. Besides, she knew how to get to him. She knew he wouldn’t do anything crazy. Oh Quintus, did she?! She hadn’t thought he’d do that other insane junk before either! Maybe this was a bad idea after all–no. No. It’d be fine. He’s been chill. He’s actually been kinda nice. There’s nothing to worry about!

Hashtag took a deep breath to steady herself, and knocked on the doorframe to announce herself. “Hey–”

Starscream jerked in a similar way he’d done when she first went to see him in the brig (he was even sitting on the floor for some reason), and snapped. “WHAT? Oh…Hashtag.” His wings relaxed a bit when he realized who it was, but then immediately tensed when he seemed to notice something else as well. “NOT helpful you slagging–ugh…” He muttered and pinched the bridge of his nose as he clenched his optics shut. “You shouldn’t be here. Go back to your siblings.” That part actually seemed to be directed at her, even if he seemed to be avoiding looking in her direction now. 

Why did she keep having that feeling that he was talking to someone else?

Hashtag drifted deeper into the room towards the edge of his berth as she crossed her arms. “I think I’m good here, actually. Oooorrr, you could always come out of here with me, and do something way more fun than sitting there being weird.”

He went silent for a while. He kept being all twitchy, and when he finally opened his optics again he just stared blankly at something in the corner. When she sat down on the berth near him, Starscream skooched a bit away from her. He seemed to be having a heck of a time figuring out how to respond to that, with how hard he apparently needed to think about it. She couldn’t exactly tell if the fact that he wasn’t telling her off meant that he did in fact want her company or not. 

Hashtag had gotten better at waiting though. Even if the suspense was killing her. She wanted to ask so many questions, get to the bottom of why he was acting so funky, but she also didn’t want to overwhelm him. When she was in anxiety mode, questions were definitely the last thing she’d want, after all.

“You don’t want me there. Admit it.” Starscream finally said quietly, only barely glancing in her direction. He sounded…sad. 

“Don’t try and feed me lines Screamy, I’m the director around here,” She put a hand to her chest with dramatic flare, “and I in fact do want you there with us! Megs had his redemption arc, and I’m here for yours! We’ve been having a decent time hanging out these past couple weeks haven’t we? I will admit no such falsehoods! Even if you are still a bit of a jerk.”

Starscream dawned a somber smile. “Hah. Right…You know, you and Thundercracker would have been quite the pair to behold. He’d always adored script writing and those absurd novelas.” His wings spazzed again with a bit of lightning as he started tapping one of his digits. Something about that train of thought had his focus start to go into the abyss again. 

Hashtag leaned a bit forward as she fiddled with her own servos. “Really? Who’s that? He sounds pretty cool!” 

“Yes…” Starscream blinked after taking another long moment to elaborate. “He was Skywarp and I’s trinemate before Novastorm joined us from the Rainmakers. He was a strong, albeit sensitive, seeker. We did not always see optic to optic, but I suppose I could relent to the fact that he was certainly better at orchestrating dialogue. Even so, it was often idealistic or fantastical nonsense. Something I am sure you would’ve been enthralled by had you two been allowed such a partnership. He’d always dreamed of making something of his work after the war…” His expression had gone from detached to angry when another flit of those sparks went through him. He growled as his volume rose and his optics flashed red. “Of course, such frivolous slag could NEVER be allowed to come to fruition! Why would it?!” 

Hashtag leaned back a bit, “Did something bad happen to him? Is he stuck on Cybertron or…?”

“He’s dead.”

“Oh.”

Silence.

Man. Hashtag really did NOT have the credentials for this. Should she just focus on being all positive about it? Change the topic? Or, giving condolences was usually the right response in these scenes. 

“I-I’m sorry you lost your…” Was a trinemate kinda like family? “Brother? I would’ve loved to meet ‘im. Thundercracker sounds like he was a pretty awesome dude. Maybe I could dedicate a character to him someday! Is…that why you’re avoiding family time? It sounds like you miss him.”

“...No.”

Well that was a lie. Starscream was avoiding eye-contact again, and according to the internet, that was the biggest indicator someone’s lying. Plus, he still was all droopy like a wet cat. Maybe seeing Hashtag and her siblings hanging out together just made him feel bad about missing his own siblings. Skywarp had left him behind on that ship too after all–oh man he had fam issues. Is that what got him so upset?

But he kept tensing up like there was something else too. Now his eyes were…purple? The purple thing was DEFINITELY new. 

Oh, now they’re back to blue–scrap they went red glitchy again! Now he’s covering his audials and muttering something. What the heck!

Geez, he’s shaking really bad now. Was it something she’d said? Was this some type of anxiety episode she was supposed to snap him out of? What was the best way to do that?? When she did a quick search, it just said to be a persistent, calm force. Don’t be pushy. Ask for permission to touch them. Oh! Remind them of their surroundings! Maybe she could reference the Seekerz poster that he ripped up? Or maybe he did it for trigger reasons…so that probably wouldn’t be a good idea.

Hashtag slowly disconnected from the berth to kneel down next to him, but not too close. “Hey…Just focus on my voice right now, okay? I don’t know what you’re hearing right now–if it’s a flashback or something–but we’re just in the bunker. We’re chillin’ on the floor in your room, and nothing crazy is going on. We can talk about something else if you want.”

Starscream abruptly threw his arm out to aim across the room as a surge of the lightning went through it. His servo retracted to channel the sketchy power into a blaster and shot an intense laser at the wall that, once he stopped blasting it, left a huge, smoldering hole. Wheeljack’s parole thing on his ped let out an EMP burst that made him recoil in on himself again with a startled yelp. A final shot from his servo flew past Hashtag’s helm before he managed to fix it back to normal. 

“WOAH!” She dodged back in surprise at the sudden outburst.

He finally locked eyes with her again, and he looked horrified. Starscream fumbled away from her with the EMP blasted leg seeming to be offline now when he full-on fell backwards after trying to stand. “Get out.”

“What?” But she was trying to help! Why did this have to be so hard!? He obviously shouldn’t be alone right now, right?

“GET OUT!” Starscream actually aimed his gun arm at her as it was shaking and sparking wildly.

Hashtag shot up to her peds and put her servo’s up placatingly. “Hey! C’mon–” 

Twitch sent her a message that popped across her visor: [Is everything alright over there?? What was that?! Are you okay?!]

She frantically sent back a response: [I’m fine! I think- Just give me a sec!] 

“I know you don’t actually want me to leave–you’re in freakout mode, and that’s okay!” Hashtag tried to stay as still as possible and watched the blaster carefully in case he actually did shoot at her. “How about I just step out for a sec to grab a game we can play one on one or something? Y’know, get your mind off of whatever this is–do you like chess?? You seem like the kinda guy that likes chess.”

Starscream didn’t say anything else, and was just staring right through her. Creepy…He seemed to have a lot of space-out moments. Did he even hear what she said…?

Hashtag slowly began backing up towards the door. “I’ll be riiiight back. Just be cool. Okay? Yeah.” She flipped out her wheels and quickly rolled over back to her fam. 

Twitch immediately flew up to check her over, “What happened?”

Bee was up and looking in Starscream’s direction as a shot of red lighting flew out and hit their skate ramp. “What’s with THAT?? Hashtag, you shouldn’t have gone over there without someone watching your back, what if–”

“GUYS. It’s okay! I got it.” Hashtag rolled past them to look for their bigger chess set. “He’s having a bit of a moment, but he wasn’t actually trying to hurt me or anything. It’s just that corruption junk or something.”

“Sweetie,” Mom started softly but her undertone was stern, “We don’t know enough about what the stone did to him, or how unstable that power is. You CAN’T put yourself in the line of fire like that. Leave him be and join us over here.”

Bee nodded, “You should listen to your mom, Hashtag. He already told me off, it’d be best to leave it alone for now.”

 Hashtag moved aside their tic-tac-toe pieces and found the chess box. She hesitated there for a moment with her servos held firmly around its edges. Were they right? Should she just let it go? He did seem pretty upset…but that could be even more reason for her to go back in! She wasn’t afraid of him, she could handle it. He’d seemed way too freaked out about almost hitting her for him to actually want to hurt her directly. 

Twitch hovered behind her, “Tag, you gave it a shot, and I know you really want to fix it, but it isn’t your responsibility to do that alone.”

Hashtag lifted the box and turned to pass her sister on her way back towards the seeker. “I know. And I’m not alone. You guys are still right here if anything actually happens, right? I’m sorry, but I really can’t just leave it and be fine with that. I’d just be thinking about it the whole time I’d be tryna play the games with you guys, and that wouldn’t be fun…So I was thinking I could try and bring game night to him! Just us so maybe it won’t be too overwhelming, but still have something to focus on. I might not be the best at chess, but it seemed like something he’d like more than the luck based things.”

“...That makes sense.” Mo nodded with a casual show of support. “Right mom? Maybe Starscream’s just a wacky introvert.”

Mom sighed. “Fine. I’m proud of you baby, but…just be careful.” Man, everyone keeps acting like Starscream was gonna rip out her spark or something. Hashtag was supposed to be the drama queen around here.

Bee also didn’t seem too thrilled, yet still seemed to understand as he hesitantly sat back down. “Call for backup as soon as there’s more of that lighting stuff. Alright?”

Hashtag flipped out her wheels again to roll backwards and give him a short salute, “Loud and clear!”

“Text me updates!” Twitch called with an extended servo as it was definitely taking a lot for her to let Hashtag go a second time without her.

“I will!” She sang back as she slid in front of Starscream’s doorway. It was sweet how much they were concerned for her, but also a bit silly. Second chances were all about giving that person the benefit of the doubt, but she still knew how to be careful. They had nothing to worry about.

Hashtag slowly entered the room again, popping back out her peds to ready herself just in case he reactively shot her way. Starscream had his servos to his helm again, and his non-booted ped was rapidly bouncing up and down like he was itching to get up and pace. He seemed to be trying to regulate his breathing and muttering different things about the room like those grounding techniques she had shown him. Huh…he actually did keep it in mind. 

“Heyyy, it’s me again.”

His attention immediately whipped her way, but he hesitated like he was calculating what exactly he wanted to say. The fact that she could practically see the equations floating around his head, almost made her laugh. But this was definitely not the appropriate time for that, no matter how hilarious the image was.

Hashtag took the opportunity to creep up closer and sit down across from him as she set down the box. She opened it, and began setting it up with the black pieces on his side while she took white. It was not only kinda funny with the good-guy bad-guy coding, but also a sneaky way of stealing the first move. She’d need to teach him how to play anyway, so it also just made more sense that way.

Starscream was watching her every move closely. That was better than staring into the void. Then even though it really seemed like he wanted to say something–maybe apologize–he kept getting stuck somehow. 

“Okay, so, the gist of this game is that you’re trying to take out your opponent's king before they get yours. First pawn can go two spaces forward, then they can only move one, and they attack diagonally. Rooks go in any straight line until they hit something. Knights do this weird L move. Bishops go diagonally until they hit something. The Queen can basically do literally anything the other pieces can. And the king can move any direction one space.” Hashtag picked up each piece to give a short display of their moves. “He’s more of the damsel in distress with his absolute unit of a kick butt queen! Then, if you completely lock someone in a death grip where there’s no way they can save their king, you call out Checkmate. There’s a bunch of gambits and stuff, but this is more of Nightshade and Twitch’s sort of game honestly. I like to play more casually than worrying about doing a research project for it. I already had to help Twitch with that once when she got WAY too into it. Then Nightshade just always wins. So I’m good at taking the loss if it’ll make you feel better.”

“You shouldn’t be concerned about “making me feel better”, Hashtag.” He finally said something. Starscream was looking down at the board as he took in the rules she’d just thrown at him. No more weird lightning. That was good.

“Well, deal with it.” She retorted casually as she shoved the empty box out of their way. “I know you wanna push everyone away and stuff ‘cause you think everyone’s gonna leave you first, but there will be none of that on my watch! Not everyone sucks, and you can figure out how to not suck too.”

“Hm. Fair enough.”

Hashtag moved her first pawn, “Your turn.”

He actually moved his knight first. Nightshade did that sometimes. She always thought that moving one of the middle pawns was better though. But maybe she was just biased.

They continued though the game silently for a while, then Hashtag got a ping from Twitch. 

[You doing alright? How’s the game going?]

[Yeah we’re chill. I have no idea who’s winning rn lol. Wbu guys?]

[Bee, Dad and Mom are about to destroy us in Pictionary. Apparently they got adult sync mode on or something.]

[Looolll I don’t think that’s a thing. It’s probs mainly cuz Dad is so Bee obsessed that he has like, a plus five mod to his perception on anything Bee related.]

[That’s so unfair.]

“Fullstasis.” Starscream’s monotonous delivery snapped her from her visor conversation. 

“What?”

“Checkmate. Whatever it is. Your…king, is cornered. On one side by this bishop, and the other by the rook behind your knight.”

She stared blankly at the board, “Aw dang it! How’d I not see that?!”

“You were distracted. Plus, I baited you to take my queen, which left you exposed.”

“What the heck man. Aaalllright fine, I’ll reset the board.”

[I’ll ttyl, he already checkmated me somehow, you tellin me about unfair]

[lol, maybe he cheated when you weren’t looking.]

Hashtag rolled her eyes and minimized her chat bubble. She would have noticed him cheating. Maybe…No, she definitely would have. She hadn’t been THAT distracted.

Once the pieces were back in their original places, she moved the same pawn she did the first time. It might seem silly, but unleashing the queen from her pawn-y prison always took priority in Hashtag’s book. Besides, that pawn was obviously the main character, destined to reach the other side on their mission to be the queen's successor should she fall in battle for her king. A thrilling narrative could easily take the bored out of any board game.

Alas, as soon as the brave pawn reached their goal and was set to avenge the queen’s untimely demise, they were struck down by the dark king’s cursed knight. She made their death scene as dramatic as possible, of course. Lifting them up and down from their final square as they reached for the heavens.

“This will not be the last you see of ME! I will rise again as many times as it takes to defeat you, not even death will keep me from taking my revenge!”

Starscream chuckled, “Oh, I am counting on it.”

“Pff, you’ve had better monologues than that.” Hashtag placed the briefly royal pawn to the side, and moved her rook to take his bishop.

“Please. I wasn’t even attempting to supply one. Couldn’t such a rivalry between your odd characters be far more interesting if neither truly wanted it to end?” He took her rook with a pawn. Worth it. That bishop was being far too shady.

She shrugged as she moved another one of her own pawns in an effort to defend. “I guess so. But it’d have to end at some point, no story can go on forever. Ooo, maybe it’d be an enemies to lovers arc!”

“Eugh. No.” He moved his knight to some really weird spot that didn’t seem like it was going to do anything.

“It’d be glorious! It’s like the soulmate trope, where they’re destined to meet and stuff, but instead they’re locked in a reincarnation loop! They’re bound to get over whatever got them mad at each other eventually.” She swooped down her bishop in a position ready to take down his king. 

He immediately canceled her plot with some stupid rook from the other side of the board. “That’s absurd.”

“Okay, fun police. Fantasy doesn’t have to be realistic, Screamy.” Hashtag kicked over his rook with her knight. 

Starscream stared at the board for a long time, before finally moving his queen in range of her king and announcing, “Checkmate.” Again.

“You are way too good at this game for being a noob.”

“Its base principals are actually quite similar to Fullstasis. Skyfire and I used to play any chance we could.” He actually began resetting the pieces himself this time. “So I suppose I am not as inexperienced as you first thought. Surely you have merely been holding back on me.”

“Yeeaaah, tooootally! I’m DEFINITELY going to get you this round, just you watch me!” She was so going to lose. Hashtag had thought that she’d at least be on a more even playing field since it was his first time, but of course he just had to have Cybertronian chess stuff with whoever Skyfire was. They were probably a Decepticon and they played it for war strategies, or something stupidly serious like that with how much of a stiff he was.

The next game went on ridiculously similar to the last two, and it looked like it was going to end the same way. Until Starscream suddenly said she won. That his king was doomed and he was no match for her full power. That didn’t make any sense. How did he notice she won before she did? That wasn’t how it was supposed to work! Did he…LET her win? Usually he hated losing. 

Hashtag confidently accepted his proclamation of her awesomeness. She wasn’t going to call him out on it. Yet it was adorable to think how much of a softy the Decepticon actually was.

A bunch more games passed by with a few close-ish ones, him destroying her, then letting her win others. When suddenly, all the squares aligned as she called out checkmate, and he looked surprised. He actually stared at the board with what looked to be unadulterated disbelief this time, and she started to get worried that he was about to get mad and flip the board or something. But then he laughed, and congratulated her in a far more genuine way than his theatrical applause from before. Like he was proud of her. Wow.

He really was just a big ball of mush under all that ridiculous, evil mastermind scrap after all.

Hi!! Don't mind me, I just live for Gawain and Lancelot. 🥹 For the ship questions, can you do: 6. How do their personalities complement each other? How do they clash?

I always love more perspectives on them for ~research~

hi hi!! thank u for the ask i live for them as well :3 How do their personalities complement each other? in terms of on the battlefield, they balance each other out nicely what with lancelot having no self preservation skills and gawain exercising a healthy amount of caution, so he frequently is not too far behind lancelot, watching his back. in their personal life they conduct themselves. very differently. but this more often than not leads to positive outcomes! lancelot has a very small social battery and often times due to overwhelm, will be non or semi verbal. Times like this is when gawain does what he does best which is Talk. That man is a Certified Yapper, and it helps take the attention off lancelot which he appreciates immensely. Another way they complement each other is with cuddling! i hc that lancelot runs pretty cold, and gawain hot due to him being Solar Powered, so cold nights in their chambers are easily fixed when your dynamic is furnace bf/freezer bf. Gawain is also fairly tense and high strung. frequently. (he's got some slight control issues so when something doesn't go 100% it can make him a bit anxious) lancelot is more laid back and chill and most the time this helps gawain Relax but it can def cause problems too.

How do their personalities clash? Like i said above! gawain is very high strung and struggles to see the bigger picture sometimes which can lead to him acting like the world is ending at, what is in reality, a small inconvenience lmao. During the start of their relationship this would def cause problems, as lancelot ultimately seeks to solve problems and Did Not Realize gawain didn't want solutions, he just wanted to bitch abt the problem for a bit. But as their relationship progressed they got a lot better at communicating clearly what they wanted/needed <33. Their room is also FULL of them clashing! lancelot is not a big fan of bright/light rooms where gawain isn't a fan of the darkness so there's a few disagreements on the curtain situation. lancelot also (when he has the energy) keeps his stuff tidy and. doesnt own very much. where gawain is a bit of a mess and a trinket guy!! lancelot has no problem with keeping sentimental things but he does have a bit of an issue with gawain bringing in rock number 14569 because its "very pretty and shiny look at it lancelot!" literal crow behavior but like. adhd crow. god i did not mean to write this much i am so sorry skdjfhusdijokl but thank you for the ask!!!!!

So my neurologist actually did something right for once and gave me some ambien to help me sleep while I'm on the steroid pack since I already have insomnia and steroids make it WAY worse, and I was really excited because this is legit what I've been wanting a doctor to do for like over a year now...but it didn't really help me sleep, at least not as well as the weed does.

I could possibly just need a higher dose(I am known to be very resistant to these sorts of meds, it takes like twice the normal dose of propofol to put me under) or maybe the steroid is just so powerful the meds can't make a dent in it(which I'd believe since I'm really sensitive to steroids and the weed ALSO doesn't help me sleep as well when I'm on them), and also it's really hot and humid right now which makes it hard to sleep in general AND I just got my bc implant put in which is making it hard to sleep since I have to be careful with my left arm and I like NEED to be able to switch what side I sleep on cuz my shitty arthritic joints don't like staying in one position for too long...but this is a bit of a let down ngl. I was really excited to be able to sleep and then maybe use this as proof that I can be trusted with sleep medication and I could finally stop having to spend damn near $100 on weed gummies every month and a half just to Sleep At All but like...hnnnn.....

Idk, when I see my primary I'm going to beg her to send me to a sleep specialist again bcs the weed is NOT sustainable it's already expensive and on top of that I am absolutely building up a tolerance which means I have to take more to sleep and thus spend more money and it's so fucking annoying. I've already made a lot of progress in the trauma department too and that hasn't really helped me sleep better which leads me to believe this is def a result of one of my other medical issues, I def think a sleep specialist is the best bet rn.

The plus side tho is she gave me 15 ambien and I only have three days of the steroids left, and my arm should be healed better in the next couple of days, so I should have a chance to test the ambien without the dual whammy of the arm pain and steroids wrecking my system, and if even that fails well that's a 15 day T break for the weed which honestly I really do need so like there's that.

Also since I have a bunch of new followers quick FAQ/rundown before anyone gives advice:

I have bipolar disorder type II and adhd and severe chronic pain from fibromyalgia, arthritis, and hEDS. The adderall for my adhd isn't the problem, I actually sleep WAY worse without it. I don't drink that many caffeinated beverages and I especially don't drink them basically at all when I'm on steroids so that's not it either. At least a little of my insomnia is due to trauma and not having a dog currently, but I can't adopt another one right now for numerous reasons, and EMDR has helped the trauma nightmares/anxiety let up quite a lot but that hasn't helped me sleep. I can't take CBD it makes my brain feel like I'm hooked up to a car battery. I also can't smoke bcs asthma so unfortunately I am stuck buying edibles which are very expensive. Insomnia isn't on the medical marijuana criteria in my state so I can't even make it cheaper that way. Melatonin does nothing. Benadryl also does nothing. Exercising before bed also does nothing. I can't do yoga(hEDS) or meditate(adhd). Cutting down on screen time before bed doesn't help and I already spend as little time in my bedroom as possible during the day so my brain keeps associating being in there with sleeping. Listening to music/a podcast doesn't help. Sleepy teas and nice baths and all that before bed doesn't help. I have a weighted blanket which does help a little, but sucks bcs it traps heat like a motherfucker, but I'd sleep worse without it so yeah. Also I can't make my house any cooler/less humid because I'm renting and it's old and shitty and doesn't have real air conditioning and the little portable ac unit + dehumidifier is trying but like...it's not enough I'm still hot and sweaty all night.

I am on hydroxyzine and nortryptraline and they don't make me even a little tired. I cannot take SSRIs or SNRIs on account of the bipolar and the fact that I'm just really sensitive to stuff that messes with my serotonin, even when I'm on a mood stabilizer, and the only med that I can stand that does serotonin stuff is the nortryptraline and it's also the only thing that helps my pain so switching it to something else isn't an option. I build up a resistance to seroquel really fast which makes my insomnia infinitely worse in the long run so I don't see the point in taking it. I have tried basically everything my psychiatrist can think to give me outside of narcotics, which led to her straight up telling me to my face she just can't help me before clarifying that apparently narcotics are somehow worse for me than not sleeping so she won't prescribe them even if they might help. I don't snore or wake up gasping for air so I know I don't have COPD or sleep apnea.

Literally the only thing that has ever made sleeping easy is weed(and opioids but those don't help my pain and have so many hoops to jump through so I don't wanna take them anymore), specifically indica with CBN, but it has to have THC in it I've tried pure CBN + CBD gummies and they don't make me tired they just make me feel weird 'cuz of the CBD.

So yeah. I am up shit creek without a paddle and I really quite desperately need to see a sleep specialist. I appreciate advice but like believe me, I've tried just about everything I can think of and none of it helps. I just naturally have really bad insomnia. And it sucks.

Booster Gold 1986 issue 19 b/c I'm procrastinating trying on my fancy clothes to see if anything still fits for this event thing Booster keeps track of the stock market b/c that's where his money is and yeah that reserch lab he bought was not a good investment

or at least its costing him more money that its making

also Booster does really say woowzer a lot Booster using his future knowledge to try and make more money by buying from an artist b4 they become famous

but again I have to say that Booster's future knowledge is only useful so long as his and other time travelers' actions dont change the past too much and there's too much fucking shit that goes on for me to belive in teh stable time-loop thing the series wants me to belive in

wild that folks still get mad at Booster for not being able to get to events on time when they fucking know he's a superhero

like? yall know what he's fucking doing and why he might be running late

yeah see that's the thing, Booster using his future knowledge just on a petty whim to fuck someone over but you want me to believe that these incautious ass fuckers arent drastically changing the timeline from their interference?

but also financially fucking over a guy for standing up for yer shitty ex who has beef with you is uh…. an extreamly petty move like? yer probably not gonna see that guy often could have just told him off and walked off

but also financially fucking over a guy for standing up for yer shitty ex who has beef with you is uh…. an extreamly petty move like? yer probably not gonna see that guy often could have just told him off and walked off

Like its reasonable for Booster to want some wealth and luxury after growing up poor and then loosing everything. But when ya start getting the reputation of being called the Capitalist Crusader…. it means yer putting off a certain vibe

the Rainbow Raider, a Flash (and other) villain. Ya know I think I know exactly what supervillain this dude was based on cause there's a Captain Atom villain that's also rainbows and color emotions

Why did Booster stop wearing his supersuit under his clothes? If its about the battery, just turn the shit off when not in use. But like you are publicly out superhero and rich aaaah its a good idea to stay armed my guy huh, Booster Gold doesnt think its fair to beat the shit out of someone he knows is being mindcontrolled. Holy shit, that's better than the fucking Teen Titans when they had that crossover with Ted

local citizens blatently saw that the villain shoots beams that alter people's minds and that Booster got zapped but start fucking hounding and verbally tearing him a new one b/c he's feeling the effects of having his mind altered and the villain got away bc of it

including fucking Lois Lane who intends to fuck Booster over for a Pulitzer b/c this writer seriously has something against Superman and friends like hot damn

so Rainbow dude is color blind and hates teh artist b/c he taught the artist how to paint and stuff and teh artist got all teh recognition and awards that Rainbow dude felt he should have got b/c teh artist's art is extreamly simmilar to his but since teh artist can properly distinguish colors it looks better

which like… disabled villains being jealous of a nondiasbled person. but also… i feel like labeling his colors could have helped with his color choice issues? superhero comics be like we gotta make the villains disabled and be bullied as kids

also the artist did collaboritive projects with Rainbow dude knowing that Rainbow dude was the better artist but took all the credit

Rainbow dude's tech comes from his dad who died working on shades to help him see colors properly but the goggles have superpowers

local dead father was a bit late but def was an overacheiver damn Lois giving Booster so much bad press for no legitimate reason. She fucking saw that the villain zapped people and it fucked with their mental and that Booster got zapped. What a fucking asshole

Booster does have a point if he starts taking money specificlly for heroism … that kinda makes him something closer to a mercenary and also is morally iffy.

of Justice League mention. But also I notice how we havent actually seen Booster with the Justice League in his on og run yet unlike with Ted where his crossover shit very prominent due to having some amount of popularity being the Charlton groups most important bitch meanwhile Booster had Skeets recalibate his optic sensors to track down Rainbow dude cause he was goinhg after the fucker anyway for ya know assaulting people and theft

overcrowded and underfed future? So teh folks in Booster's time are both vegetarians and not eating enough in general? I didnt get that impression from other issues

liek i can get if the Carters were underfed given they were poor but not that society in general ok so in Booster's time there's places in the USA that are off-limits due to radioactive contamination and lots of wildlife is extinct

why… are we not actively trying to prevent the future that Booster comes from? Even if he, Skeets, and Michelle get retgoned… it'd be for the greater good

Skeets asks Booster why he's still a superhero after having accumulated quite a lot of money and fame. Which is a great question cause superheroics tends to lead to …unfortunate happenings. Booster says he's staying in the game b/c its fun.

Skeets is correct. It's fun for now but shit can change

also this is def foreshadowing given we know Michelle (fuck if I grok how to spell her name) is up to something and traveling on her own and she's Booster's only living family … I sense a fridging on the horizon again, damn, Rainbow dude's dad really said he was gonna make the most kickass vision correcting eyewear in the world

and if Booster's aquired blindness was something that actually lasted maybe i'd care

[vastunknownsea]

okay, so I got the (one sided) crack ship outta the way (SkaterDawg) (Olivia and Adam) so now it’s time to get (not) serious

there aren’t many character options, only six teens and a few adults. I don’t know anything about adults so ima just ignore them for now (although Park’s and Dolly’s interactions in the show are mighty sus if you ask me just saying) (but I don’t ship it really)

two of these six are taken already (Maya and Frank) so that just leaves Moppington, Olive Oil, Dawg Bro, and The Mechanic. Or engineer whatever.

Three of these options low key don’t seem like they’d even care for relationships, but who cares! Shipping there must be. So let’s see every option!

Olivia and Stanford;

(SkaterMop?)

Can’t really see them tbh. Their cringe fail may cancel each other out, but their dynamic seems more like a platonic, “here’s my friends, plus that one loser I know” or like … something. Just not romantic (in my eyes anyway)

Olivia and Adam;

(SkaterDawg)(I already did this stuff but eh)

💀 he calls her Karen dawg

Stanford and Adam Williams;

(Uhhh… )(WillFord?)(that sounds so goofy 😭)(MopDawg)

💀 a disaster waiting to happen, Stanford will lose brain cells around him

Stanford and Ava;

(IStanAvaPatel)(who doesn’t)(mopmech)(im tired of ship names already)

Eh, it could work, I guess. Most likely option to happen tbh. Tho I very much like the idea of them just staying friends, they would be cute I guess. Low key highkey all that shizzle. Classic bff becoming love interest stuff. They would commit crimes together (they already have) will break into abandoned places (or not abandoned) as date ideas and play video games (Ava always wins)

Olivia and Ava;

(SkaterMech?)(HeroMech?) (Ava is kind of a mechanic right?)(eh she’s an engineer but wordplay or whatever)

This one would be the most interesting in concept, I think. Classic “my ex-boss’s daughter be kinda…” thing. Or, “my dad controls your paycheck” “ha, not anymore,”

both their social battery’s will run out ten minutes into the first date. They both find Clark annoying and will bully him together. Ava would harass General Park relentlessly as Olivia just begs her to stop exposing every single general to exist (she knows all of them personally) Ava could fix those daddy issues like the amazing engineer queen she is 🤩 plus the undoubtedly goofy robo (or alternate version of HF1) Olivia will bring back with her from da shadow realm.

Their Veritas association with one another would cause some bumps in the road, though. Maybe, maybe not. (Olivia def scared the crap outta Ava in that episode 💀)

Ava and Adam;

(DoubleABatteries) (I don’t freaking know)(MechDawg)(I don’t like it)(possible) (impossible)

💀 I don’t dare to entertain the idea they don’t even know each others names. Possible if they get to know each other in season 2, since the other two will be presumably gone. Nerd jock dynamics? Same as Stanford but Ava would most likely retain her braincells

Frank and Maya being the goats per usual

What do y’all think? My own opinions are jokes obviously but now I’m interested to hear other people’s thoughts.

[aiyumiyeou]

yumi interacting with the other ninja? how would he?

also I love ur art ❤️

AHHH thank you for asking this anon so i can openly brainrot ahwkdhsk

adding a read more simply because i want to ramble and because i'm a little shyy and thank you so much i'm so happy people enjoy my art >//<

starting off with some info: yumi's 'elemental' power of yāojing (fairy) is influenced heavily by empathy & his OWN feelings towards things (which more or less can be helpful..? if he's empathetic enough to feel for more than himself if that makes sense)

his powers grow when he eats the livelihood (counted in years.. etc. if yumi hit a person with his elemental powers he just stole 2 years off their life hfkfjdk) and emotions of people as well.

older yumi just has different physical features (taller, around kai's height by the end? at least in my head) with gumiho features like fox ears and a pretty silky tail

kai: younger yumi was the shyest with kai.. he prob had one of those mini kid crushes on him but as yumi grew older he acknowledged kai as lloyd's older brother who he likes to tease way too much. in general they're really competitive but have a comfortable-silence kind of friendship

cole: best older brother in the world to yumi. [head in hands] first ninja to interact with yumi after wu takes in yumi first! cole p much redefined what a good older sibling is supposed to be like and yumi easily has separation anxiety from him c': in general they are super funny and unserious tgt in contrast to all the angst they probably experience..

jay: yumi loves to listen to jay's rambles but he gets the most confused/overstimulated from the lightning ninja's emotions & loudness combined. all in all despite jay using up yumi's social battery the faster, he really likes jay's versatility and love life issues (yuyu is def a romantic & resident gossip horder, which he will share with jay on the promise he doesn't spill any secrets)

zane: yumi always appreciated zane's patience and tolerability & sense in situations but similar to kai they have that sweet but silent kind of relationship! put yumi and zane together in a kitchen and some puppy eyes and suddenly dinner is all high quality meat dishes.. yumi always tries to help zane out with chores they are both avid cleaners.

nya: yumi loves nya's company. before he aged up he always went to her when yumi felt both of them being excluded from the team and she would play with yumi's hair. yumi vents to nya the easiest and he tends to go wild in his whining whenever helping the water nya fix up her mechanics. they have a really cute bond.. nya is 2nd place for best older sibling in yumi's heart

lloyd: Ahhh. where do i begin. yumi has the strongest bond with lloyd which ends up with a lot of teaming up, oblivious flirting, and craving spending time with the green ninja the most. when they were younger they were half friends half rivals (a lot of tension in general..) but yumi and lloyd are the type to like and trust each other so much that it also causes problems (ex. lloyd keeping his emotions from yumi to not burden him and yumi stubbornly pushing away lloyd to prevent becoming a weakness to him)

[image transcript; a screenshot of tumblr tags reading: #that first one is kinda like having to carry an oxygen tank #but also there was. in real life. a bodybuilder who had to carry a battery backpack for his mechanical heart #but also there was. in real life. a bodybuilder who had to carry a battery backpack for his mechanical heart]

@ghost-hours this is incredibly interesting and def belongs outside of the tags. When writing this I really didn't consider the fact that real people very closely mirror the fictional disabilities listed (outside of the telepath/autism analogy) but I think it really adds to the post.

One reason I think fictional versions of real world problems help is because people already have preconceived notions of the real world which can distort there interpretation of discussions. Real world problems are also incredibly complicated and full of nuance which can make it difficult to write about without risking people developing misguided assumptions.

Fictional counterparts can help get around these problems. Firstly, since these aren't real, people don't have preconceived notions and coming into the discussion with an opinionated mind; this is an oversimplification though, it is impossible to fully remove anyone's preconceived notions and results vary depending on how blunt the metaphor is. Secondly, it detaches itself from real world experiences so you can get away with simplifying the discussion without the risks brought up earlier.

The battery pack is a good example of this, when many people hear about the body builder, intentionally or not there views of his condition are going to be distorted by the fact he's a bodybuilder. We also have a terrible habit as a species as to only focusing on things we find interesting, namely we focus of the mechanical heart and not the battery pack.

Both of these issues don't emerge, we don't judge the robot for there faulty battery nor do we lose focus on any important details because the details unnecessary to the discussion have been removed. We focus entirely on the battery pack leading the discussions and thoughts being built around the inconveniences of having to carry such a heavy metal container around all day along with logistical issues like what if the battery gets unplugged and how is the battery swapped out/recharged? These problems also exist with the body builder but we ended up getting distracted from them due to our preconceived notions and the irrelevant details.

This doesn't mean fictional counterparts are always superior, they are riddled with issues. If the metaphors are too obvious, they won't function and if they're too obscure then any connection to the real world is lost. Simplification also limits the discussion, for instance the body builder has many more problems caused by the mechanical heart which the robot with a battery pack does not cover. And finally, fictional counterparts are simply worse disability representation than real disabilities that real people face; fictional counterparts can also be used to avoid representation like with shapeshifters and non-binary peeps.

shout out to disabilities which only exist in fantasy.

Robots who carry around heavy battery packs because there inbuilt ones can no longer hold enough charge.

Shark girls who have pumps over one of there gills because they can't continuously swim fast enough to receive enough water through there gills.

bird girls with prosthetic wings.

creature wearing climbing gear because they were born without the ability to telepathically fly around.

Peridot

non-telepaths (in a world of only telepaths) constantly having to explain to angry people berating them because they assumed that the person is a telepath.

They both add a depth of realism to a universe and another perspective for abled bodied audiences to understand what its like to be disabled and are also fun.

OMG I saw ur reblog omg don’t worry I enjoyed reading your thoughts!! >_< aaa thank you for the kind words!! I know some people yume in the form of ocs, or sometimes they just mimic exactly who they are and apply it to the page. I guess I would say I’m in the middle?

Like, I don’t know if I would call it a direct insert cuz I like playing with backstory + appearance + past relationships, but my s/I has a lot of my characteristics, personality, hobbies, trauma, even name sometimes! So it’s still “me” — the essence of me. But I guess what I mean is like, once I start to bring it to life, it feels weird? like my s/I isn’t a complete oc cuz he’s still me! But maybe it’s a mix of self esteem / gender issues that make it hard to believe “it’s me.” Does that make sense?? Omg this makes no sense.

BUT THANK YOU I know it’s just a process of getting comfy, and regardless you’re meant to have fun, no matter what u do 🥺 it def reassures me a bit. And im doing okay!! Still recovering from my hectic week, but your writing and words made me happy 💓

— 🐰

WAHH, I'M happy I was some help + you enjoyed reading my thoughts. Yeah, I COMPLETELY understand being iffy finally imaging your s/i interacting with the canon cast, cause like....it does feel out of place, but at the same time, it's your own comfort space! I guess it takes some confidence to actually bring your s/i to life in the canon story. When I first got into yumeshipping, I actually had oc's, not s/i's. Totally different appearance, personality, backstory, than me irl, and I was like "Haha, would this is selfshipping cause this isn't me, it's just an oc?" and soon, i was like "Wait....this IS selfshipping!" LOL. I also think it's a matter of messing with the actual canon, but personally, once I separated the 'canon' as just an au where my s/i doesn't exist, I started to see a lot more sense. Yeahhh....ig it does take confidence, but like, yumeshipping also gives ME confidence, so it works out in the end >.<

I also get lots of inspiration from being other oc x canon ships (not including my f/o ofc, cause I'm a non sharer), cause, let's be real....I heckin' LOVE oc x canon! It really does feel like everyone, indeed, does have good oc's, but that's what gives me a lot of courage to bring my own oc's to life. The line between a s/i and an oc is kinda vague, some ppl would consider their s/i an oc, some feel off saying it, but like....it's up to you at the end of the day, so you do you!

And I'm happy you're doing well, I'm glad, once again, my words and writing gives you comfort :) My social battery is fried cause I came back from work, but I hope my nonsensical word vomit makes sense too >.<. Didn't mean to turn this into another ramble, but I really do like talking abt yumeshipping, and if you have anymore questions or whatnot, then I'm always open to discussing more!

Characters I love and whether or not they’d love me: a sliding scale

From Shinsou, to Kuroo, to Kakashi, to Jason Todd

At the top of the list we have Shinsou Hitoshi. I feel like he and I would bond over loving cats and being sleepy. He’d be mildly frustrated with my lack of motivation, but I feel like he’d be good for me and my neuroses wouldn’t be bad for him. Idk I just feel like we’d work pretty well together 💜 seems pretty calm and methodical. Probably just my headcanon, but I get the vibe he’d be much more interested in sitting down and working out issues with someone he cares about vs his (what I imagine is) his knee-jerk response, ie emotionally withdrawing and shutting down. Communication’s a big thing for me so I think we’d work shit out before it ever got bad, which is awesome.

Next we have Kuroo Tetsuro. He’s pretty goofy and fairly easy-going, and I feel like we’d bond over academic stuff. I get the vibe we’d both encourage each others’ passions well. However, the active thing comes in play here again because I am simply not 🤣 I’m also kind of a slovenly mess just because I don’t have the energy to human a lot of the time, and I feel like Shinsou and I would work better with that. Kuroo gives me “I only need one cup of coffee a day to function” energy and I love that for him but I’d kill him for it 😆 also I feel like he’d be genuinely earnest if there were ever rough patches in the relationship. He’d want to actively work through it. Everything about him screams ‘active’ to me JDHDGGS. A go-getter. I am NOT a go-getter, I am a go-sleeper, but he’d probably be good for me and I work really hard to not hurt the people I care about with my issues, so I’d probably at least not be bad for him. I’m an all-around pretty good emotional support and a good person to go to when you need to chill, so we’d work pretty well together that way.

Next: my BOY, my MAN Kakashi Hatake. Listen. I love him. So so much. But he is like. The KING of discipline. I have the drive of an overcooked spaghetti noodle: there’s NO stiffness to my spine. (To be fair, I’m constantly running on like 8% battery power.) I feel like we’d be good for each others’ mental health though. My guy needs some healthy coping techniques and I need someone who’s marginally less of a disaster than I am. Kakashi gives me ‘runner’ vibes if a conversation’s getting too deeply into his trauma, which isn’t GREAT, but it isn’t explosive anger — something I wouldn’t take at all. We’d def bond over dogs and I’m really good at reading people/picking up on what’s going on in their heads, so I’d probably be a soothing, comforting presence for someone so tormented. I’d also be a STAUNCH supporter of him having a life outside of ninja-ing! I’m a great cheerleader and raging attack dog whenever anyone hurts the people I care about, and Kakashi deserves someone sticking up for him. All of this is great, bbbbbbut my boy’s like a functioning alcoholic (without the alcohol): he’s outwardly okay, but there’s something VERY not-good going on inside (it’s probably gotten better in his later years though!). I’m just an alcoholic ODUIHFSIOUDFK there’s something very wrong and it SHOWS. Maybe we’d both go to ninja therapy. Get some talk-no-jutsu. Probably not, but we both need it. Anyway, we wouldn’t be the worst match, but it’d have the potential for messiness. I’m big on communicating, he gives me runner vibes. He’s been self-motivated and pushed his whole life, I’ve got all the motivation of a melted snowman. We’re both tired and don’t want to put the effort into something if it isn’t working, but I feel like if we cared enough we could make it work. I’d certainly try.

Finally, my bestest babiest boy Jason Todd. Between us? It’d probably be half a nightmare. 😅 he does NOT give me the vibes of someone who wants to discuss his trauma. I don’t like guns. It’s very sexy of him to use them against criminals, but I still don’t like guns. Canonically has rage issues so if we got into a fight and he got explosive I’d end up terrified, and idk if I could come back from that. My boy’s bitter, sarcastic, and caustic, and he has every right to be. His lack of care for his mental health would be detrimental to mine, though, because I hate to see the people I love hurting not being able to help. However, my boy’s got a big heart and he looks out for the little guy. He cares about issues that are near and dear to my heart, and I think he and I would be able to understand each other fairly well. I actually feel like, when things would be good between us, they’d be REALLY smooth. Mans is a feminist of the highest degree. He rails against the systemic injustices that our most vulnerable face. Jason has a TON of good, but he’s also extremely nuanced and very traumatized, and he doesn’t react well to emotional issues. He’d never intentionally scare or hurt me, but he has magic PTSD and a long history of guardians teaching him the EXACT wrong way to deal with emotions, so it’d happen and it’d probably destroy something in him. Make him even more bitter and withdrawn than before. And that would be bad. I could easily see that leading to him self-isolating even more and just...spiraling. I just don’t know if I’d have the emotional capacity to support him how he deserves :\\\\ another not-great thing is that Jason Todd doesn’t put on a persona for the Red Hood. The Red Hood is just Jason with a helmet. He can’t separate those two aspects of his life, so I don’t see any reality where I wouldn’t know his secret identity. However, there’s no way I’d go into vigilantism, which leaves me with really only him to rely on for help (and his family, but even more removed from him because I’d just be the s/o). But if I was familiar with the Red Hood and it leaked that I was seeing him (which could easily happen, since, again, the Red Hood is just Jason with a mask) that’d immediately make me his, and through him the Batfam’s, greatest weakness. For one, since I would have no real support network, I’d be easy pickings of anyone who has a bone to pick with any of the Bats (but esp Jason because of...well, you know. Me dating him and him being him). But mostly...it’d be because their secret identities could be easily made with me. “They’re dating the Red Hood? Well unless they have two boyfriends, that beefy guy with them is probably the Red Hood.” The one good thing here is if he was still legally dead no one could tie Jason Todd to Bruce Wayne and his flock, but it’d be a huge problem anyway. I’d be the biggest crack in their anonymity, because I’d have none. Jason deserves love and gentleness and support and I’m good at all those things. He wouldn’t give me shit about being a disaster because he’s also mentally ill and acknowledges mental illness as a Thing, even if he’s shit at taking his own advice. He’s a good dude with a good heart and a ton of passion, and I love him for who he is I headcanon him to be 😆 but not communicating about his issues or working with someone to get better would be really hard on me. Pushing him about it could lead to explosive defensiveness, which would be hard on us both. Biggest problem would be the secret identity. I’d be the Red Hood’s kryptonite, and he’d never forgive himself for taking a normal life away from me. HDHSHDGDH it’s MESSYYYYY

[voltrixz]

YEAHHHHHHHH its time to take over people's feed with our silly rambles

ALSO YOU. YOU GET IT TOO!!!!!!!! our brains our so in sync, this is the rumored insane tssm telepathy communication

(also I GOT SO CARRIED AWAY LIKE A LOTTTTTTT) (so putting a read more) (brace yourselves everybody)

BUT YEAH, do think there is always gonna be those little grudges (these two do not let shit go that easily AT ALL....) and AGRHH "why does doc trust you more then me" AGRHH AGRHH (sorry that line got to me (very emotional about him)

However the graph made me giggle and ITS SO REAL........ electro from the very start would think "yeah you're ok" (jealous and already exploding vulture in his mind) and yeah the team fuck up was the inital thing that made their hatred for each other not one sided anymore, and do think yeah sometimes they would try to trust each other and electro would fuck up either on accident (or purpose (< little shit (affectionate) and basically a repeat as your awesome graph says (btw saving this graph (the fact that the "hey maybe you're not so ba-" gets cut off by the line just dropping makes me giggle everytime) AND YEAH the rest of the sinister six just constantly deals with this, AND AHHAHAH YEAH they just get soda and popcorn and watch as a old grumpy petty man who can fly argues with a angsty living battery

AND YEHAHHHHH and yeah tbh they just kinda make sense in a funny way to be buddies and YEHAHH HEHE their silly beef over stealing each other's name puns and i think they would eventually just casually interchange puns because its funny to annoy people with em. AND the fact that their powers compliment each other very nicely, their silly and i think they would be awesome as buddies and i love them sm

and hehe. (actually sobbing) yeah arghhhh him seeing doc again after him basically leaving electro to die??? I think he would be informed a bout it before being placed in the cell and AGRHHH the fact he would probably try to convince himself that doc HAD to have a reason for it due to how much he trusts and admires the doc but he's basically only got his thoughts and maybe this time he'll start to put the pieces together and realize he was being used the whole time and i think he could have possibly found out that spiderman saved him and that whole dilema that the guy who you blame your rage on and direct your revenge on, bothered to save you but NOT the guy you out your trust in and AGRHHHHH, just him having to deal with that as he's just alone with his thoughts AND AGRHHHHH he would be so so conflicted and just have so many doubts and AGRHH the dilemas he would have would be insane........ and yeah there is SOOOO much angst possibility with this...

AND YEAH AGRH, reaching the conclusion that everyone he trusted to help him had just ended up hurting him and just adding on to that anger leading him to become so suspecting of people who claim to help him

also about eddie, not sure if electro would really be willing to trust or really think he could even be allowed to trust (nor do i think eddie is even in the postion to well help electro as eddie himself has a WHOLLEEEEEE pile of issues to deal with too) eddie even before all this realization. Def think he did had some sort of trust for him since he was there for him during the accident but after that, pretty much nothing, eddie didnt listen to his warning at the lab and he hurt him. After that (from what i remeber) i dont think its mentioned that either of them tried to reach out to each other and I think if they saw each other at ravencroft and electro seeing eddie has gone through his own transformation with the whole venom thing, i dont think they could recognize each other anymore as they both become completely different versions the person they knew before. (< this part made me sad just writing it (quick throw in a joke about this uhhhhh (they ended the mutual........... tragic.............) (sobbing crying) ( i do think their friendship could be salvageable MAYBE at some point down the road (but they have a lot of work to do on their own ends)

ok onward we go

ABOUT HIM BECOMING A MERCENARY.... I THINK UR READING MY MIND LIKE ACUTALLY... (< has thought of this before)

the idea that his desperation and all these fears crashing together and start blurring the line and just making him follow commands as closely as possible to whoever can offer him the cure and these commands would just become more morally questionable and that it'd start to cloud his morality so so much, but he just doesnt know what to do anymore and all he can is just lean more and more into the villain persona and i think as he leans more into this, he comes stronger and stronger and actually gets taken seriously more (a atsv spot moment) .

AND YEAH he'd just fall into that slug of being offered a cure for the use of his powers and would end up betrayed, repeat repeat that at this point he starts forgetting his initial goal and is just doing what hes being told because he rlly doesnt have anything else and is way too far gone to do anything to turn back

Actually had a bit of an idea for this, sort of an au??? or whatever. i think at some point he would be offered a cure by norman (who would be back from his vacation and plans to return as the green goblin) and would need someone to do his dirty work while he preps in the shadows and electro, just needing something, anything to do and having no real personal grudge against norman, he'd take it, despite knowing that doc, vulture (and not sure if he knew flint's and alex's transformations because of norman but ya know) hated norman and tbh he'd pick up that norman was just using him but at this point he just went along with also added angst, do think norman would pit electro against the sinister six, especially doc and erm.... drama.................... finally a chance to get revenge but also extreme confliction (also would greatly harm him and shocker's relationship, electro try not to ruin your one sorta stable relationship ) and LIEK AGRHH he would be taken seriously and be powerful but at the cost of his morality

GOT SUPER CARRIED AWAY TOO AND A LOT OF THIS IS JUST RLLY ANGSTY SPECULATION

BUT YEAH, so so normal (LIE)

You seem extremely bored, what are your Head-cannons on one on one dynamic ms with Electro? Like, Electro and vulture or Electro and Curt?

so... pretend i remembered. I'M SORRY..... OK let's see what my brain throws up!!!!

electro + vulture

vulture still holds grudges towards electro for that christmas tree incident... my guy doesn't really think before he acts 😔

as (forced by doc) compensation, electro helped improve his wings. and maybe tampered with them for a negative effect... just a little. like the bitch he is

he acts like a brat towards him tbh. dick student and dick teacher dynamic LOL

electro + curt

they barely talk. electro still had some respect for curt when he joined the sinister six, but it all went away after... y'know

yeah... don't expect a positive interaction ever since. thinking about the possible post-s2 angst with these two....

i mean, think about it. max trusted connors a LOT. he didn't even turn fully evil when he became electro, he still was looking for his help, becaues he trusted him. now he's locked in a cell by the man he trusted.

(EXPLOSIONS!!!)

Hypothetical Rank Ups No. 62-65: Summer Kiyohime

[This is probably gonna be less in depth/more rapid fire explanations because I don't even like her this is just a way to cope -_- Making these was more fun than actually getting her that's for sure. The obligatory "not really needed but wouldnt be too much to give it" is the NP rank up; all three of her skills absolutely need rank ups if only for how unbelievably boring they are.]

Passionate Summer A -> Passionate Summer (Madness) A+

Decrease Critical Rate for all enemies (5^ turns). Increase your NP Gauge only when on a [Waterside] or [Sunlight] field. [Activates first] [10-40%] Change current field to [Waterside] (5 turns). Change current field to [Sunlight] (5 turns). Decrease Charm Resist of all enemies (5 turn) Decrease own Charm Resist against [Male] enemies by 60% (5 turns). [Demerit] [Reduce cooldown to 6/5/4, charm resist down scales from 20 to 60%]

The gimmick here is that you have a high battery on a low cooldown but it's entirely field reliant and only changes the field at the END of the skill activation. If the field isnt already Sunlight or Waterside then you wont get any battery out of it unless it's maxed out at level 10, and even then it requires you to use the skill a second time the moment it's available several turns later. The crit rate down is certainly decent but unquestionably a bonus compared to the potential uptime of 40% battery every 4 turns so there isn't much deliberation if you CAN pull off that slightly longer term strategy.

The reason FOR these battlefield changes is Kiyo's madness refusing to acknowledge the end of Summer. No more summer means going back to being a silver unit, and that'll mean she won't be as eye-catching for master! Her overwhelming desire for a neverending Summer of Love creates a sort of viral mental corruption that also reduces the charm resistance of all enemies for several turns....even though she has no charm skills herself. And it lowers her own charm resist against potential Anchins. Oh, Kiyo, what are we gonna do with you....

Bath Transformation A -> Showtime Transformation A

Increase own Buster Card effectiveness (3 turns). Remove one debuff from self when attacking with Buster Cards (3 turns). Increase own Critical Star Gather Rate (3 turns). Apply Guts to self (1 time, 3 turns; stacks with other Guts). [Guts HP scales from 3000-6000]

Honestly this one is just pure balancing. There's almost no lore about summer Kiyo beyond "hehe summer wife" so I latched onto this one being "Now's my chance to get master's attention" and gave her a somewhat short but powerful Guts as her sole survival tool (because obviously she can't let Anchin see her fall short) and a 3 turns of crit gather that's really not an upgrade, rather a sidegrade. It helps in the sense of making Crits easier (especially with her 2 quick cards and high Buster/Extra hit counts) but it also means she'll be hogging all the attention and other allies wont really get to crit (as well as have to provide her Crit support to get the most out of it).

Pursuer of Love A -> White Hot Pursuit!

Decrease DEF for a single enemy (4^ turns). Increase ATK for a single enemy by 20%. [Demerit] Increase Quick Card effectiveness for a single enemy by 20% (4 turns). [Demerit] Apply Target Focus to a single enemy (2 turns) (1 turn at level 10). [Demerit]. Greatly Increase own Quick Card effectiveness (2 turns). Greatly Increase own Critical Star Drop Rate (2 turns). Apply Immobilization Immune to self (2 turns). Inflict Burn (2 turns) when attacking with Quick Cards (4 turns). [Quick up scales from 30-50%, Star Drop up scales from 50-100%, Burn scales from 500-1500.]

The candle that burns brightest brightest also burns out the fastest, and Kiyo has to be fast if she wants to catch her Anchin. The enemy no longer gets a universal 3 turn attack up, but they do get an even longer 4 turns of Quick specifically up (the better to run away with). The defense is 4 turns to match, and there's an additional issue of Kiyo tunnel visioning her Anchin, applying 2 turns of target focus to them (though at max level this becomes 1 turn which drastically reduces any issue it would put forth)

The real buff though is the rest of it; firstly there's an Immobilization Immunity buff, ensuring Kiyo can't be stopped from pursuing her Anchin (and ensuring the short term buffs she gets won't be wasted). More importantly though, Lancer Kiyo only has 2 quick cards and by god we're going to make them count. With a MASSIVE buff to them both, specifically at max a 50% to Quick and 100% to Star Drop, which in combination with her incredibly high Buster hit counts can generate a TON of stars in one turn (30+). This quick buff also encourages using said Quick Cards, which will now inflict a very short Burn for a much higher uptime (4/5 turns at best as opposed to only 2) and the increased NP gain on them will help with her having only one Arts. That NP gain is important as well given the new interaction we're giving her NP with those brief windows of Burn...

Dojo-ji Bell Form 108 - Karyu-nagi A -> EX

Deal significant damage to a single enemy.^ 150% Chance to inflict Skill Seal a single enemy (1 turn). Apply Special ATK [Enemies with Charm] to yourself (3 turns). [Activates first] Removes a single enemy's Evasion buffs. [Activates first] Apply [Burning] field effect to self (5 turns). <Overwatch> Deal supereffective damage to [enemies with Burn]. Apply Burn for a single enemy (5 turns).^ [Anti-Charm attack scales with level at 20/30/35/37.5/40%, Anti-Burn damage scales at 100/120/140/160/180%, Burn scaling increased to 2000/4000/6000/8000/10000]

Haha! Did you really think I gave her charm res down on a whim?! Just like how Lancer Kiyo specifically is based on the part where she killed Anchin, her NP specifically gets a bonus against any cheating Anchin's (or actually just lovebirds in general when you think about it...maybe she's jealous?) with 3 turns of extra attack against charmed enemies, which gets amped even further if you kept your opponent burned! Trapped in the bell, just like in the legend that metal bell superheats Kiyo's flames to immolate everything insider by conducting said heat, dealing massively more damage to burned enemies...though given her short burn duration and limited ability to apply it, she's mainly reliant on chaining NPs or or her allies to inflict said burn. Also while I may not care for her I don't wanna bully Yang out of her entire niche, so the scaling is actually lowering than her equivalent effect, being a base of 100% instead of 150% with barely higher OC scaling. Oh and because the bell is....a giant ass bell trap, no amount of evasion can save her enemies. Especially when she goes full Houdini with her blades

....so to restate.

Lancer Kiyo is now highly burst focused, but with significant drawbacks. She has a 40% max battery, but only through finicky field manipulation that requires heavy investment in her skill to reliably pull off without specific teammates. She has a massive burst on her third skill, but it also requires heavy investment to get the most out of its scaling and even then it has a shorter than average duration. Her second skill is a lot less investment heavy but means you're pretty much stuck with her being your dps as far as crits go, though between the multiple kinds of anti-unit damage types on her NP, that shouldn't be much of an issue for anyone who takes the time to set her up properly.

It's a bit much as per usual, but I can confidently say none of it takes her too far...if only because of how dreadfully boring a kit she has as is. That's pretty much it. Like I said, not even a fan of her. Don't ask why I did this.

[trashcanfills]

How about Hanzo headcanons on space?

Ok ngl when I first read this I thought you meant outer space, which made me go wtf what opinions does hanzo even have on space? Does he even LIKE space?? Is he even the kind of man to be interested in tha-oh oH.

I do hope it was personal space you were referring to, anon, instead of outer space. If not, well uh sorry.

Still, yay since it’s my first request uwu hope you like it

Personal space for Hanzo is like oxygen for humans. If he doesn’t have it, he feels suffocated.

I see Hanzo as an introvert, so to him having personal space for himself occasionally is practically a must in his life.

Can and Will tell someone who he doesn’t know/like or is annoyed with to kindly fuck off if they a bit too close to him to his liking. (Def has done this to Genji when they were younger)

Of course, if you are someone he likes and is familiar with, he won’t mind small intrusions to his personal space. It just takes him a while to get used to.

If you are someone he REALLY LIKES though and you aren’t in a relationship, you get the amazing addition of a Flustered Hanzo, which is the best fucking thing to ever witness.

Like whenever you initiate small innocent touches with him, e.g brushing your hands together when passing him something or bump shoulders when joking around, Hanzo just flushes and has a brief unsure/panicked expression. He feels a bit of a thrill and happiness when you are physically close to him, and will experience the ohdearkamiwhatdoido internal dilemma. He’s too much of a socially awkward dork someone save him.

Genji pokes fun at him whenever that happens for sure if he is around to witness that (cus when is Genji ever not being a lil shit?). Cue hushed conversations in Japanese where it’s Hanzo hissing and threatening Genji to NOT do ANYTHING while Genji is teasing him. Note this would be likely once Hanzo gets over Genji’s supposed death and how he mostly responsible for it.

WAY MORE forgiving and accepting of his romantic interests/partners if they intrude his personal space. Heck he would have probably welcomed it even if it weren’t for the numerous issues he has regarding around people in general (which would take a long ass time to unpack so let’s just leave it at that).

Even in a romantic relationship he would still need his own personal space. Hanzo can accept and even grow to love physical affection if his partner is the kind to initiate often. Just don’t expect him to be okay with it all the time cus he is still an introvert. Sometimes he’s gotta recharge his battery aka tolerance for social contact.

@captainadwen

@kyogre-blue  ty!!! 🤔 what's the best way to build jean and noelle??? also any way to make diluc and kaeya good enough to stand a chance in abyss??

OK, I’ll do my best. 

Noelle has exactly one way to build her for Abyss-level combat: Get her to C6 (yes), then build has a DPS. (If you’re talking in general, then you can use her as a cheap shielder/healer by just stacking DEF and ER.) 

Best weapon options are Whiteblind (craftable DEF claymore), Serpent Spine (BP claymore), and Redhorn (Itto’s weapon). 

Best artifact sets are Glad 4pc and Husk 4pc, with Husk being somewhat notably better but hellishly hard to get a good full set of. (I don’t have one lol)

Her team would generally be: 

1) Itto-style mono geo with Gorou and Albedo/Zhongli/Yun Jin in the third slot, and 4th slot as either elemental applier for shields (if necessary) or one of the previous and maaaaybe Ningguang as a sub DPS/battery. I use this team for Floor 11, though it doesn’t generally output enough for Floor 12 due to various issues with my builds and bad rotation skills.  

2) Double Geo with a second Geo (Gorou or Zhongli most likely, maybe Albedo) for the Geo resonance, and then a two character sub DPS core to provide additional damage. I’ve seen stuff like Fischl-Beidou, Fischl/Beidou-Xingqiu, double hydro, etc. I’ve never run this myself, but you can find videos of it. 

To run down the basics of how and why, Noelle converts DEF into ATK during her burst and infuses Geo. With C6, she gets additional DEF conversion on her burst, which raises her overall damage. On top of the damage and utility gains from her other cons, this makes C6 Noelle... not ideal as a DPS, but at least viable. You can then stack the general Geo buffs on her. Gorou is great for his DEF and Geo buffs, Albedo benefits from Gorou and provides extra damage, Zhongli shreds Geo with his shield and also helps keep 100% shield uptime in order to proc Geo resonance, which also shreds Geo (these are the only two sources of Geo shred in the game, so you really want them) and gives you DMG bonus... as long as you have a shield. Noelle does have shield herself, but it has only 50% uptime. 

Jean is very flexible, but it also means her specific build will depend on what you’re doing with her. In general, you’ll probably build her with 4pc Viridescent Veneer, the famous VV artifact that can shred any element the user swirls. It also increases Anemo damage and swirl damage. 

Between VV and healing, Jean is an okay choice for any non-Geo team, though she’s considered less beneficial than Kazuha, Venti and Sucrose for not having grouping and not sharing EM or whatever. 

You might ask whether to build her with full EM or ATK/DMG/Crit, and the answer is it depends. Just do whichever is easiest. (I actually, shamefully, have her on ER sands lol)

A few teams that can use her: 

Xiao battery and healing. If you don’t have Xiao, ignore this. 

Healing/shred combo for taser. You can guess how this works, since taser is very flexible in general.

You can also build Jean with Noblesse 4pc if the VV shred is not as relevant, for example in Eula teams. 

The famous Sunfire. This is when you use Bennett burst, and then put Jean burst on top of it right away. Bennett applies pyro to the onfield character, Jean applies anemo to the on field character, which causes you to swirl pyro off yourself. Since swirl is AOE, this means you can apply pyro onto enemies this way, as long as they are close to you. (You generally build Jean with EM here, but most important thing is having enough ER for your burst.) But note that it’s the most Circle Impact possible, so it doesn’t work too well against enemies that run around a whole bunch, since they’ll often end up out of range. Obviously, once you apply the pyro, you want a hydro or cryo unit to vape/melt off of it. 

Diluc is a pyro DPS, so he has the standard options: 

Vape with Xingqiu. The other two slots will be some general support options like Bennett, VV Anemo, maybe a shield. 

Melt with at least 2 cryos. I honestly can’t tell you which combinations of Cryo characters will work, since you have to consider the very specific details of their elemental application. I’ve seen Rosaria+Diona used in videos. You might be able to do Rosaria-Kaeya, if they don’t apply enough for him to melt, they’ll do the melting instead, which isn’t unworkable. Or just go Diluc’s worst nightmare of Rosaria-Kaeya-Diona lol. The last slot would generally be an Anemo VV. 

Mono pyro. This is very specifically Bennett, Xiangling, Kazuha. 

You would build him with 4pc Crimson Witch, or if you can’t get the full set, 2pc Crimson Witch/2pc 18% atk set (Gladiators, etc). The sands can be either EM or ATK. EM can be a good choice if he’s melting or vaping, for up to about 200 EM. His weapon should be something with Crit, EM or ATK substat. 

He absolutely can do Abyss even now, and I can link videos of it. The power of Pyro element can’t be underestimated. 

For fun, I’ve also seen him used as a burgeon trigger, so that’s very lol

Kaeya is a bit tough to pin down because he CAN be used in Abyss teams, but he’s generally a flex option. 

He can be a second Cryo in freeze teams, as a battery and elemental applicator. Note that Kaeya’s elemental application is fairly sparse tho. 

You can make him carry in a freeze team using Shenhe to boost his damage. Generally, you’d run him with another cryo DPS to share the damage output (Rosaria or Chongyun probably) and probably someone like Mona or Kazuha to boost the damage even more. 

He runs in reverse melt teams with Xiangling, Bennett, and Rosaria. This is the option generally mentioned if you need two 4 star teams and Xingqiu is on the other side. 

He can be Cryo in a Phys team. 

Obviously if you invest enough in his build, he can be main DPS himself, whether Cryo or Phys. I’ve seen this. But that’s kinda rough to get that level of investment, so if you want to DPS him, you probably need strong supports to buff him (ie, Shenhe, Kazuha). 

....whew, I hope that’s all correct lol
