New Addition

Johnny Lawrence x fem!reader.

Summary: Reader's mom just got married to Bobby Brown's father. Just as reader was hoping to get away from him even more. She finds out that they are moving into Bobby's house. Reader doesn't really like Bobby and his friends to much, but Johnny seems to change her mind over time.

First Person POV

Note: I made up a name for Bobby's dad as one was not mentioned in the Karate Kid movie.

Me and my mother have been on our own for a while now. But she recently met a man that she fell madly in love with, who also had a son that went to West Valley High. I wondered who it was, but my mom said she forgot his name. Before I knew it, all four of us went to dinner. Mr. Brown said he was running late due to his Karate practice. 'Who could that be?' I asked myself in my head. Thinking nothing of it. Someobody walked into the diner and sat with us. Bobby Brown. One of the top people on my 'Do not like list.' After that night, we started doing more things as a 'family. And now my mom was marrying Bobby. Brown's father. The Bobby Brown. Just as I wanted to get away from him more. Don't get me wrong, I love my mother dearly and I'm happy for her, but Bobby couldn't be more annoying to me know that were "siblings."

"Y/n, guess what." my mother asked in the car. Interrupting me from my thoughts. All four of us coming back from Golf n Stuff.

"Yeah?" I said looking at her from the back seat."

"We are going to be moving into to moving in with Tom and Bobby." She said sounding excited.

No. Way.

"That's just wonderful." I said, fake smiling.

"They are going to help us pack our things when we get home." She said. We make our way home and we start packing our things to take to Tom's house. While I'm in my room packing, I hear a knock on my door.

"Come in." i say. Not taking my eyes off of the things I'm packing.

"Do you need help?" A voice behind me asks. turning around I see Bobby.

"I'm fine." I say coldly.

"Listen I don't want this either, but we have to get along some time."

"Yeah, when your friends and you start treating me with a little more respect, then I will start being nice to you." I said.

"Can I at least help you pack?" He asks me.

"Sure, posters and pictures go in that box. Random stuff you find on my desk and on surfaces like drawing supplies, or random things go in that box, and fragile stuff like crystals go in that box." I say pointing to the different boxes.

"Okay." He says, helping me pack. Eventually we got all of our stuff packed within two days and started our move into Bobby's house. When we got our boxes into the house, I set up my room the way I wanted it, already making it feel like my personal space. As I was putting the last of my things away, there was a knock on my door.

"Hey y/n. How are you doing?" Tom asked me politley.

"I'm fine. Just getting the last of my things up." I said, slightly smiling at him.

"Listen, I know moving can be hard, but I'm here if you ever need anything." He said smiling at me.

"Thank you, I appreciate it." I said. He started walking out of my room.

"Oh, and if Bobby starts giving you any trouble. You let me know. Now that you're in this family, I won't allow him to treat you wrong." He said smiling at me.

"Thank you, I definitely will." I said giggling.

"Anytime."

Throughout the day, I finished unpacking my things, and then we all sat down and had dinner together.

"So, how are you doing with everything y/n?" Tom asked me again.

"I'm doing okay."

"Did you get everything unpacked?"

"Um, yeah, I just got everything done before I came down here."

"That's good. Less you have to do during school time." He said.

"Yeah." I said quietly.

"How is school going? Getting good grades this year?" He asked.

"Yeah, I like to think so." I said.

"That's good to hear. No one giving you any trouble now, are they?"

"Not lately no."

"Well, that's good. Now you remember our talk earlier, if Bobby and his little friends starts to bother you in this household, we'll certainly have a talk about that." He said smiling at me.

"Dad! I don't do anything to her!" Bobby said trying to defend himself. my mother slightly smiling at the conversation.

"Y/n does he do anything to you?" Tom asked.

"They do anything per say, their just really annoying, more to me than anybody." I said, smirking at bobby.

"Well, I will make sure to handle that myself if it ever happens again." He said smiling at me.

"You're really taking her side dad?" Bobby said.

"Son, she is new here, we want her to feel welcome. And you know that I don't tolerate any of that. If I would have known sooner, I would've done something about." Tom said, waving his work in Bobby's direction.

"Now, his friends will be coming over tonight, so I'll keep a close eye on them for you y/n." Tom said smiling at me.

"Thanks, I appreciate it." I said slightly smiling back.

After dinner, I helped clear the table and went to go watch TV in the living room, Tom eventually coming in a watching Tv to until I hear a bunch of chaos come through the front door. 'Great' I say to myself, getting up from my spot, going to find somewhere else to go.

"You can stay here; Ill keep my eye on them." Tom said.

"Thanks." I said.

Of course, at the same I said that they walk in.

"Hey y/n, how's Bobby treating you over here." Tommy said walking in, sitting next to me.

"Fine."

"Must be tiring seeing him all day." Dutch asked.

"Very tiring." I said, rolling my eyes.

I continued watching TV as the guys started goofing around with each other again.

"You boys need to calm down right now, it's getting way to loud up in here." Tom said.

"Yes sir." Tommy said.

"Sorry Mr. Brown." Jimmy said.

"Sorry dad." bobby said. The remaining apoligizing.

The group ended up sitting down, talking quietly along with watching the TV.

"Hey y/n, I bet your so happy to be living here with Bobby. Isn't he just the best stepbrother you could ask for?" Johnny said to me.

"Yeah, you too must really connect now that you're living together." Tommy said. I just rolled my eyes and continued watching TV. Later, I decided to go out to the garden, and sit there, taking in the nature. Then the boys came outside and sat around me. Surrounding me.

"Hey y/n." Bobby said.

"What."

"Why are you being rude? We just wanted to hang out with you?" Dutch asked.

"Yeah right." I said annoyed.

"How's school going for you y/n?" Tommy asked.

"Just fine, thanks." I said fake smiling.

"You must be really excited to see Bobby all day every day." Johnny said.

"Oh yeah, I'm very thrilled." I said.

"What are you doing out here all alone anyway?" Jimmy asked.

"Trying to enjoy some peace and quiet but clearly I'm not going to get any." I said annoyed.

"Come on, let's go watch TV." Bobby said, having his friends follow him. Johnny staying behind.

"What are you still doing here?" I asked Johnny, genuinely concerned.

"Just thought I'd sit with you." He said.

"Uh- okay." I said.

"How's your day been so far?" He asked, trying to make conversation.

"Fine, I guess."

"How's the move been?"

"Didnt you already ask me?" I asked.

"No"

"It's fine."

"Your life seems fine." He said.

"What?"

"You keep saying your fine, and everything is fine. Nothing else."

"Cause I don't know why you're talking to me. You like hate me. You push me around every day at school, so why are you talking to me now?"

"I don't know. I feel bad I guess. For treating you badly."

"Okay...."

"So, is living here good?"

"It's alright. I mean I just got here." I said.

"Oh yeah, right," he said.

"Do you do anything outside of school?" He asked.

"No, I just go home."

"Why?"

"Cause I don't really have anyone to hang out with."

"Yeah, I've noticed you don't talk much." He said

"It's called social anxiety."

"What's that?" He said with a questioning look.

"I have a hard time talking to people, and when I do, I don't talk much."

"Oh, makes sense."

"How's school going for you?" I ask.

"Good, Glad it's almost over."

"Same."

"How's karate going?" I ask.

"Good, were training a lot for the tournament."

"When's that?"

"In December." He said.

"Are you excited?" I ask him.

"Excited to win." He said. I rolled my eyes, laughing a bit.

After a few moments in silence, Johnny speaks up again.

"I'm sorry. For treating you the way we do at school."

"It's fine."

"No, it's not.

"Well, it's not like you push me down the stairs or anything." I said smiling.

"Yeah, but still. It's not right."

"Why are you apologizing. The amazing Johnny Lawrence never apologizes." I said with a slight laugh.

"Because I'm sorry, and maybe I like you more then I should." He said looking at me deeply.

"What do you mean?"

"Do you want to go out on a date with me?" Johnny asked. I took a few seconds to process his question.

"I'd love to." I said smiling at him.

"Great." He said smiling back, hugging me before going back inside.

every time i post a new guy appears that you never see again

Mo, Loo and Nyu (AU version of Tucker. yeah. it's the nick harston curse all over again i have an oc that i love to death and i create AUs of 'em. it's inasneri. insarne insane) So uh, Loo is basically the one who created Tucker's mask (in my partner's and mine fancanon masked can do that with their blood-like substance, and it's possible to be done separately without an employee's body), and then kind of died by a nutcracker. So the bastard had to chill in caves for I forgot how many years

Mo is the creator of Loo's mask. Yeah, somewhat of a family tree: Mo - Loo - Tucker.

Nyu is the alternate version of Tucker IF Loo had survived the nutcracker. Basically a happy AU yk yk. He's a lot more chill since. all the stuff hasn't happened to him and he had someone to rely on

They're dressed like this since these particular "family" (dating back to all the original masked's who started their generation) doesn't interact with humans much. Trying to get as far from them as possible, don't have many connections to the whole Company stuff. The only thing that keeps them somewhat close to humans is their hunger. Still gotta eat, yk?

and their coal-drawings on the masks is just something that someone started some time back and they continue doing it as a tradition. just a form of self-expression

-tries to look intimidating, has scared only one man

-............wants to be friends

Mo: What did you even raise?

Loo: A comedy <: )

laughter in the background

hey he's just vibin'. he's nice trust me heey.

two lazy lazy sketches

maybe it's a nice thing to meantion from our fancanon: either comedy or tradegy is born depends on the "parent" masked state of mind. Feeling mostly happy - comedy is created, feeling mostly sad - tragedy. easy as that.

and in Tucker's "family" he was the first comedy in a looong long time so my boy's special (and the FUN part is that the mask he himself created was a tragedy. Loo broke out of cycle so just Tucker could get back in it)

Okay BUT BRUCE AND DICK CRYING? OVER THE BATSIS STUFF!?

Like Bruce curled up into the bed that is supposed to be for her (BATSIS) Wich is clearly to small for Bruce, and he's burying his head into the plushie (make it a Sheep? Or worse make it a Superman or wonder woman plushie) and Bruce is just crying his hear and eyes out,

My god the feeling that Dick is just in the same place as Bruce but Dick is on the floor grieving, holding those paintings as if they were a life line because.... He failed them, he failed another kid, he wasn't there in time and now there is probably no more time, he probably lost another kid again...... He failed, he's a failure of an older brother, imagine that feeling sinking in and he starts feeling just as that time when Jason dies and he wasn't there and he lost his baby brother but this time is that he was ignorant and neglectful and even fully forgot that he had a baby sister and now he will never have time with her..... He'll never get back those 6 six years..... She has another older sibling to look up to, one that actually notices her and they are attached to the hip, a sibling that she really cares and loves, a brother that will do anything to keep her safe,.... How can he compete with that? but he needs to right? Just to have a small chance.

Ok bUt hear me out

Bruce Wayne vs Nolan Grayson.

I'll leave that there, do with that what you want, let's use our imagination.

Sorry I got inspired I just LOVED CHAPTER 16 ITS LOVELY

( I need a 2 chapters titled "Bruce Wayne vs Debbie Grayson or Nolan" (graysons wins) and another titled "whose the better Grayson?" And it's a Dick vs Mark type of thing (It's Mark, Mark's better) Lmao)

I may be on a very good mood, so I'm so sorry if I send more asks 😔😭🖐️

-Nameless 💜

(sorry for so many asks I just LOVE your series)

NEVER BE SORRY FOR SENDING ASKS I LOVE THEM!! 💚💚💚💚

I put my money on the Wonder Woman because 1. What if batsis had a plushie of every hero but not the bats? Damage. 2. She initially got the Wonder Woman plushie as a gift for Jason, and when he died, she took it back. Double damage.

See? I wouldn't be able to come up with this stuff completely on my own, the asks are important:)))

I fully wrote the Dick crying on the floor, clutching drawings with the idea that batsis drew two versions of the same idea, him and his parents, and him, his parents, and the bat fam btw. I wanted to add that, but he'd be holding them with the drawn site to his chest so it wouldn't show, so I had to erase that.

By the time the Dick saga fully begins I fear he'll be delusional enough to see you sticking around a family named Grayson as a sign that everything is fine and you'll forgive everything since you clearly missed him them so much. He'll be deep in the hells of denial. 5 stages of grief? Nah. It's just denial.

This isn't exactly Nolan vs Bruce- but I have had a scene since like- chapter 13, for a little jab Nolan will throw at Damian, and I think you'll enjoy it when and how it happens. But to go back to the dad vs ...dna donor. That'll be another breakdown for Bruce, full crashout. Are people watching? The league? He doesn't care. He just needs to punch something so he can calm down, maybe cry a bit more- his baby had been with a murderer for years- and then the planning starts.

Now- If it's Brucie who meets the man. Nolan "I don't know who you are, son. But I know you're a whore. Stay away from my kids and wife." Grayson just lies and moves past, because he's a changed man- and he may have been bribed to play nice.

Brucie is flabbergasted- how dare- he's right- but still. He could ignore it, but he also could be petty, finding every way possible to be as close to his daughter and the other two kids(they're not his and he's pissy about them being closer to batsis than his own kids) pushing and pushing until, probably Oliver since the lil manipulative blueberry doesn't like this fool being so friendly with his big sis and completely ignoring him and Mark, just starts screaming and crying that the bad man(Bruce) did something bad. (The Bruce Wayne pr team wants to quit.) Be it either calling him or her sister something mean, or going the extra evil mile and saying to stop touching me like that pervert- the papers will have a field trip. Bruce shan't know peace, his kids were raised for higher society, to network with even the worst of the worst, Mark and Oliver? They'll point and scream stranger danger just to fuck with someone.

Now does this give Nolan the great excuse to punch him? Yes. Debbie is faster to play along, though, and she ends up beating Bruce with her purse, Nolan is resigned to a bodyguard post, simply dragging Bruce away under his arm like he's holding a cardboard cut out.

If it's batman, it's very much against either man's will and will probably end up in a brawl. Now the kids are split into the "Stop that" and "fuck his shit up" camps, until Nolan punches something and everyone is reminded that Bruce will break his fist if he does land a punch. Batsis and Jason intervene, sadly, but Bruce is being stupid, and Nolan is on thin ice with the government. He can't be seen fighting with another hero... again.

A lot of restrictions are about to be put on Nolan, so sadly, his hands are tied. Good thing his wife and kids are just as feral as he is.

SEND AS MANY AS YOU WANT BBY DON'T WORRY I LOVE IT( I may respond a few hours later tho, it's almost 3 am and sleep finally hit me 😅)

I hope this is comprehensive and not just incoherent rambling 😭

1, 13, 15 for the mi ask game!! <3

@airlocksandaviaries @sevenseasofyeet @guidonian-hand

1. What is your favorite M:I movie? I change my mind every time I watch one, but overall, I think 4. It's the one I rewatched most when I was younger!

13. If you were a member of the IMF, who would you be? A field agent? Analyst? Director? Serious answer: I'd probably be a nurse hired to treat injuries when the field agents come back from their missions, since that's my job IRL. Fun answer: Analyst, because I want to be Brandt. Pay me to complain about how people do things and contribute nothing of value to the team otherwise <3 oh wait that's already what I do online-

14. Do you have any M:I headcanons? YES but they're all fluff and shitposts I'm so sorry guys I forgot all the serious ones so I'm just going to throw a bunch of bricks through your window one by one:

Ethan:

Secretly loves bubble baths but rarely indulges in them unless forced

Watches Benji and Luther play video games a lot despite understanding none of it, he has fun anyway

Back when Ethan and Julia were married he used to make themed lunches for her every day 🥺

Draws caricatures for fun

Benji:

Auteur cinephile and really annoying about it oh my god shut up we're watching a movie we don't care shut up <- Brandt

His secret side job that funds his phat pro gamer rig in Rogue Nation is drawing furry porn commissions for people on Twitter I'm sorry for this one I really had to post it I'm sorry I truly think I'm right though I'm so sorry please block me

Luther:

If he weren't an agent this man should have been a restaurant critic because boy howdy does he have opinions about everything he eats and everyone else will hear them

He and Brandt go fishing together in their downtime. They bicker the whole time and catch nothing because they both suck at it. It's enrichment for them

Ilsa:

She's the one who collects souvenirs from their trips around the world. And those souvenirs? Cool rocks. She has a cool rock collection and she is very proud of it. I cannot stress enough how important Weird Girl Ilsa is to me, you simply must see my vision on this one

She would love Furbies sorry I'm being cursed again but you know she would

Brandt:

He likes birdwatching, which sounds like a really boring milquetoast "if beige was a guy" hobby and it is which is why I gave it to him but he's actually really passionate about it and he accidentally gets everyone else into it too, so they'll be out on a mission and Ethan will randomly be like "whoa, a yellow-crested sparrow!" and Brandt will be like "what where. Show me the sparrow. Yoooo that's nice!" (The squad needs to slow down for five seconds and appreciate some wildlife ngl. I think it would be better for them than therapy <3)

He can rap like nobody's business. You wouldn't think this man has ever listened to a Kanye song in his life but he has the Monster rap tattooed behind his eyeballs

His movie taste is so bad though oh my god Brandt why is your most-watched movie on Netflix Gnomeo and Juliet. Brandt

This guy is so sucks but I love him so much god I love him why do I think about him so much. @parlaypeach this is your fault

Jane:

Animal lover but really weird about it in the way that she loves the cute ones and the weird freaky ones equally

She will belt out the entirety of Hamilton in the shower if you give her enough time (she's terrible at singing though. Narrative foil moment with Taylor Swift I mean Taylor Swift no wait I meant Taylor Swift I mean. Sabine Moreau)

Hunley:

This man is so obsessed with cat videos, someone stop him

Goofy boss of all time TO ME. Proud owner of no less than 30 #1 Boss mugs courtesy of the squad, and he loves every one of them

He did not die because I miss him :'(

Grace:

Grace is the name Ethan and Julia would have given to their daughter if they had children. It's not Grace's real name but it still feels important for some reason

🥲 I made myself emo guys

Oh also she never learns how to drive. She graduated from the Ethan Hunt School of Clown Car Tomfoolery and is never getting that second degree

The only person on the team she's never lifted anything from is Paris because she's afraid to get her fingers cut off

Halloween lover. She's not a big holiday person but she LOVES Halloween

Paris:

Not a headcanon but do you guys think she would like Hello Kitty. Do you think Paris Missionimpossible would fw Hello Kitty. Please say yes this is extremely important to me

(She likes Hello Kitty)

It takes her a while to find hobbies she likes because her brain isn't wired for it since she's only ever had to do things to survive, but I think she would be really good at origami. She gets completely absorbed in it and no one is allowed to talk to her while she's doing it because it helps her concentrate. Everybody has received little origami gifts from her at one point ;w;

Alt fashion queen but we all knew that

Degas:

If Ethan is Grace's spy dad and Benji is Paris's spy dad I have decided Donloe and Tapeesa are now his parents :') He calls them regularly on a burner phone and has to join them for dinner every few months :'))))

Knows lots of pop culture. Grace and Paris know nothing about pop culture so he takes it upon himself to teach them about it. He and Benji go head to head at bar trivia night and it's always a toss-up who wins on a given evening

15. What's your favorite M:I ship? Ethan x Julia <3 followed closely by Ethan x Ilsa. But really I don't know they're both everything to me ;-;

20. In which M:I movie do you think Tom Cruise's hair looked the best? Objectively Fallout, subjectively Rogue Nation because I like his anime boy fringe.

"Am I somehow so terrible that the woman who birthed me no longer deserved the affection of the man whos love created me?" A rdr fanfiction.

A short fanfiction about Jack Marston.

My uncle stood next to me, the brim of his hat shielded his eyes from the sun coming down from above. He held a fishing pole in his hand, his line ended somewhere out in the middle of the river where he had thrown it. My line is only half his length, my small arms could not handle more, he had caught three fish, I had yet to catch anything. I found fishing boring, the flowers in the grass further up the shore looked pretty, they made a nice necklace to mama.

Father, I can’t help but remember that day when you asked me to fish with you, when you grabbed the bucket and the two fishing rods. You looked awkward, but happy somehow, you didn’t quite know what to do with me, I didn’t quite know what to feel. I still found fishing boring but caught a fish before you did, you were impressed and I was unsuccessful in keeping spite from my voice when I told you it was uncle who taught me. You simply replied “oh did he now?”

Uncle was never a good fisherman, yet the day he taught me he told me I was the second little boy he had taught to fish, I used to wonder why I didn’t have a cousin if that was so, but with time it simply made me realise why he hated you.

He died eight years prior to that fishing trip with you father, meaning it had been eight years since my first fishing trip. I had been just four and when I stood with the rod in my hands again I had been just twelve, it had been just eight years since uncles death, you barely talk about him, your brother, I barely remember what he looks like, but I remember what I had seen him as; my father. He brought me a comic book, and I drew him a drawing of a family, it had been him who had taken the place of the father, not you, I carried not his blood but to me he was my father.

It has been eight years, eight years since your eyes last held disgust, eight years since you last yelled at me, eight years since you decided that you wanted to be my father.

While I forgave I never forgot and I never stopped wondering. Oh father, what did I do for you to reject me? What did I do to be unworthy of your love and why was it first when you decided I fit into your life that you allowed me to be your son? Whatever could a child still growing in the womb have done to make you hate it? I am a creation of love, I shared the blood of the woman you held dear, yet that affection not only did not extent to me it was also cut off from her when she came to carry me.

Am I somehow so terrible that the woman who birthed me no longer deserved the affection of the man whos love created me?

Father, did you forget? That day on the riverbed, had you forgetten the way you used to look at me? The way you never even tried to hide your disgust but would shout it so everyone would hear, you were so ashamed by me that you chose to humiliate your son of four years in front of everyone in the area. I cried to mama that day because my child brain did not understand that you hated her just as much as you did me, that she was just as hurt by the way you shouted at her as I was by the way you looked at me.

Father, did you know I used to hide in my aunt’s skirts yet I could still hear the sound when she slapped your cheek through the fabric? I remember it even now though she has not laid her hand on you for eight years, she wanted you to accept me. I was too young to know then, but I now know what she meant when she said “I don’t care how you feel about me, but at least make an effort with the boy.” Did you yell at her for telling you to love me?

Father, did you know I don’t react to my own name? The one we share? The one given to me by my mother before you decided to give me a nickname because the idea that the two of us would share four letters made you angry? I have never once been called by our name, though it has always been a dream of mine.

When you speak to me, you speak as if your voice has never carried anything but love, I wish it was the truth, and although I am happy it doesn’t give sour comments no more I can’t help but wonder when you decided I was worth your time? Was it first when you saw someone else take the role you had taken for granted?

I know the man you called father, the man I called grandfather, never carried your blood and you never his, yet it was also him you drew on drawings and it was him you taught you to fish. We are similar in that sense and because of that I can’t help but wonder when you took me to that riverbed, did you hope you could teach me to fish?

[where-does-the-heart-lie]

Can we have a deeper analysis in Sabo's shape language study please? It's amazing how you make him give different vibes with just his hair and I like to understand how does that work.

Oh. I'm SO glad you asked.

(The Post In Question)

Okay so this isnt the first post ive made about shape language,

Here are the others:

ASL Shapes Strawhats Shapes

i'm just gonna copy and paste the definition i have for shape language from those posts here so i dont have to write it all again.

Shape language is defined as “a concept used in art and animation to communicate meaning based on shapes we are familiar with” (source). This concept uses circles, triangles, and squares to convey an idea of the “personality” of the design without using any words.

In designs, using circles and rounded edges in your silhouette and detailing gives the design a soft and squishy look. They tend to be harmless, approachable, or changeable.

Designs using squares gives the design a solid, sturdy, and strong look. They are supportive, reliable, and inflexible

Lastly, triangle designs are sharp and directional. They are dynamic, dangerous, and unpredictable.

That's base level but here's more in depth description of each design for ya:

this one is up first!

You may notice how in this design, his hair isnt in large clumps like the others are. His hair falls delicately and waves gently with little to no hard angles.

In this design, i was trying to convey the idea of "he wasnt born to fight, but he's molded himself into someone who will." I tried to depict that by making his hair all light and feathery, his facial features soft and rounded, but also showing how he's modified his body in a pointy and aggressive way.

I didn't want to only go hard edges with the piercings though because much like he's strayed from his mold of being delicate, he's also strayed from his mold of being a cruel noble. so some of his piercings are rings, AKA: Circles.

You may also notice the different in how I've drawn the collars of these guys. the collar of this Babo's black coat falls softly, and its' arc is rounded. The shoulders don't have any padding and it rounds at the corner.

This Man Is Round.

Next up is this Freak

This is supposed to be Triangle Him.

His hair is in larger, hard angled clumps. Indicating that he probably cut his hair himself. He did... greattt. I already headcannon him as someone who cuts his own hair, but i dont think this one ever gets any better at it.

The hard angles on his teeth, his scar, his jaw, his collar, that line i forgot to erase on the left, and his coat all give indication that this guy is Dangerous and you probably shouldnt mess with him.

I didn't have any real deeper meaning to this version, I just wanted to make him look as opposing as I could. this guy is "what you see is pretty much what you get."

Even though he doesn't have a lot of deeper meaning, I think this one is my favorite of the designs. I really love these colors on him and his hair was really fun to draw. I think I wanna draw him again at some point. I think this version of him would be very funny paired with Koala. I'm chuckling thinking about it:

Koala and her Armed and On Fire kindergartener

And lastly this guy

Sabo's base design is very rectangle coded. From his Hat, to his face shape, to his coat. So this version was very easy to make as I didn't actually need to change that much!

I think maybe I could've made his design a little more complex? But also I think there is a beauty in simplicity for this one. He looks straightforward, reliable, and kind. He seems like the kind of guy who gets his hands dirty, not because he likes doing it, but because he does what he must for the greater good.

I really love his hazel eyes, too. I think it brings a nice warmth to his design that is really nice.

Additional comments:

I love talking about this stuff. I love designing. I love art. I love drawing so much it's so fun

Also, thoughts on Polymar? (Louie/olimar/olimar's wife)

I enjoy Polymar!!!! While I personally have head-cannons that makes the ship not really work out in my aus. I do appreciate and admire the hustle of others who are into the ship! I love a simple solution to solve ship discourse being “x- character has two hands!” And I think a lot of the portrayal I see in the tags is very sweet. Kind. Heartwarming and just. FULL of good energy. It’s very inclusive and there’s a lot of possibility’s and potential for everyone’s story’s.

It’s also nice to see more love and thought catered to Olimars wife. As a character and as given more thought than “just his wife.” It’s something I ,as someone who enjoys louimar needs to keep in mind when I’m writing her. Divorce is very complex, and having characters break up can often lead to one character being the “bad guy” of the story. Which, if you are breaking up characters just so one can get together with someone else, it’s best to be aware of the tropes and what kind of message you are sharing without simply having olimars wife just be the abusive one/the one in the wrong. Even if there’s only so much canon information to go off of, thinking about making a character like olimars wife feel understandable but flawed is very important. Never been fond of others just labeling her as a “bitch” or something like that

ANYWAY that’s something I find nice with seeing people write/draw with polymar. It’s them exploring this character without needing to worry about that big topic of divorce if they wanted Louie to get involved. It’s exploring interests, communication with olimar and the wife. Acceptance and open mindedness…. It’s a feel good ship in my eyes.

But speaking of my own characterization of Louie and olimars wife (still deciding on her name) there are some hurdles. Being as Louie is… strictly monogamous and very gay.

The divorced couple are both realizing they might not be straight. Balancing the kids and picking up their lives once again. They both felt much more open and started learning things about themselves.

Louie’s been crushing on Olimar for so damn long. But he just knew that a relationship with him was never going to happen, he was content with just being around him.

Until, he realized olimar in fact got a divorce. The weird man suddenly forgot how to walk. Louie’s doomed and the crush is HIGH in his mind.

And Louie is a selfish grabby clingy kind of guy, when he realizes there’s something he wants and it’s possible to get.

And if he gets it

NO way is Louie thinking about sharing his treasure

Mans a greedy guy. And Olis wife, while she’s open. She can be quite catty and very competitive

But instead they get along when Louie’s in a relationship with Olimar. She’s able to share many details about olimar to him while Louie occasionally gives her any hot gossip from their work. (Or dish recipes)

“Hey, Carrots!

No need to look so offended, I’m not here to cause any trouble, you know~. No favors to ask of either. It’s your special day, isn’t it? It is! So I came by to give you a present.

…Yeah, okay, it’s not really much, but it’s a gift nonetheless. Coupon for a special pop for the birthday girl~. You have a favorite flavor or something? I’ll try making it into a pop for you. A dozen for free! I’m real kind, I know.

Oh, and before I forgot. You know Ashi, don’t you? Poor girl couldn’t make it today, so she asked me to hand you a gift bag in her stead. Proves my trustworthiness, doesn’t it? Heh.

No need to worry, I didn’t peek at it… Hold some higher standards for me, would you?”

Niko hands over the bag. It’s a cute, pink, petite bag with cat decorations on it. It holds some resemblance to the feline holding it herself.

Grabbing what’s inside, there’s a little drawing with a note attached. It’s written with words and symbols that seem impossible to verbalize, but somehow it’s easy to imagine a certain brunette bringing life to them…

Clochey! HBD fam!~ Super bummed I couldn’t make it, but I hope this prezzie has enough of my energy baked into it that it feels like I’m there! LMK ASAP ☆

I wanted to send you a cute lil’ message ‘cuz I’m real thankful for us being friends, YK? Even tho we aren’t super buddy buddy, I still totally enjoy your company. Eppy tells me enough about you that it basically feels like I’m hanging with you myself!

Anyway~ I wanted to gift smth more personalized for you, so I drew up a little drawing! It’s kinda like a postcard, but I tried putting one of your fave things on it ♡ I hope you enjoy!~

We should SO get talkin’ again soonsies! Wishin you a happy birthday and many more with a certain huntsman <3

Sincerely, Ashi ♪

Cloche hears a chuckle after she’s done reading the note.

“Wow, Carrots, your face is a little red… Wonder what Ashi stirred up for you to get you, the cold clawed kitty to get lookin’ like that. Well, privacy is privacy. Guess that’s my cue to leave.

Here’s hoping you catch a break from all the trouble around campus, hm? Enjoy your day~.”

HAPPY BDAY CHRIS!!!!!!! I HOPE YOUR DAY AND WEEK AND TBH MONTH IS SO BANGER. ITS SO DESERVED!!!!!!! 🫶 it’s been SO nice being your moot for like?? WHAT??? TWO YEARS OR SMTH??? TIME IS SO CRAZY. it’s been such a treat being able to interact n talk w you since the beginning!!! I GET SUPER HAPPY WHENEVER I SEE YOU IN MY NOTIFS <333 HBD again and I hope life treats you well!!!!! 🙏 blessing your pulls and turning them into pomepulls……….. tehepero

[Cloche’ Birthday Bash] *them referring to our dear freshmen

Okay first of all… ASHIIIIIII YOU’RE GONNA KILL ME I SWEAR !!! THE FACT THAT YOU SENT THIS SO EARLY??!?! THE INTERACTION IS EVERYTHING! I JUST LOVE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT SO NATURALLY- Fr, Niko just waltzing into Ramshackle then dipping- aND THE GORGEOUS GORGEOUS ROOKLOCHE ART- LITERALLY SCREAMING OVER THE POSE AND DETAILS- YOU SERIOUSLY OUT DID YOURSELF FOR THIS ONE! Rook carrying her and Cloche grabbing on to him to get closer- SAVANACLAW ROOK MY BELOVED- Muscle man frrrr- Ashi really caught on to the cat maid’s staring during Chapter 7 huh. AND THE DOODLES ON RHE SIDES ARE TOO CUTE- 😩

Epel yapping on about Cloche and totally not suspiciously asking Ashi about her roommate- Ashi internally sweating bullets when Epel doesn’t realize that everything he describes is the cat maid making up excuses to avoid him-

Also take this… Cloche walking up to Niko days later and asking for a bone marrow pop, and it takes Niko a few seconds to realize it was a joke 😭😭 Slow burn friendship trust-

Really, it’s so wild that it’s been 2 years- So glad to have you here and to celebrate with you again !! I think you really blessed my pome pulls with this one- seriously- man came on the 30th pull twice- Ilyyyyy If makes me super happy to see you in my notifs as well and may we continue to interact in the future!

It’s Monday again! Some recent asks. About twst, about blue lock, about fem!Deuce’s skirt length, about tops and bottoms, etc.

I'm subscribed to your Kofi. Yesterday I had a TERRIBLE day so I logged in to check your recent stuff. I found myself scrolling thru your entire feed and smiling at your Adeuce, TreyRiddle and RookVil (my favorite ships) arts. Even if they're unfinished, I loved them a lot, specially that comic where Che'nya steals Riddle's baby tooth for Trey. Don't answer this publicly if you don't want the contents of your Kofi to be revealed, I just wanted to let you know that I went to bed with a smile after a terrible day (and week, overall, I've been having it rough) because of your art. Keep creating ❤️

Anon, this is such an incredibly sweet message, and I am very grateful for your kind words. Just as you got cheered up by stuff we post on Ko-Fi, your message really cheered us up as well! I am honestly still shocked and happy that people are into my unedited sketches and don’t mind scrolling to tons and tons of them to see their favourite ships and characters hehe.

That comic!! We really want to finish and post it one day, but it’s been a bit difficult to keep up with all that lately. It will be finished and posted though at some point, so I don’t mind teasing~ I’m happy you liked that one!

Thank you for your ask and for supporting us on Ko-Fi of course!!! <3

Where are you from? If it's not a secret

It’s not really a secret, we talked about it before, even though it was years ago…

We're from Russia; I, in particular, moved here (from Turkmenistan, it's a long story...) when I was a young teen and lived the majority of my life here.

Anonymous asked:

Is there a top x bottom ship that you don't like?

Good question, actually! I don’t think there are any that we don’t like, to be honest. If the top/bottom positioning makes sense to us and doesn’t contradict the way we feel about the characters, the worst thing that could happen is that we just don’t really care much about the ship (like Kalim/Silver, for example). But I can’t think of any that we would really dislike…

JESUS, I'M SORRY, I SENT YOU AN ASK OFF A TOP X TOP PAIRING

FOR A HOT SEXOND I LIVED IN A WORLD WHERE YOU HAD FLOYD AS A BOTTOM (which is incredible considering how often you draw him) AND THEN I REMEMMBERED LIKE FIVE SECONDS AFTER

AHHH NO WORRIES ANON!!! It happens!! No hard feelings whatsoever <3 You don’t have to remember every single thing!

But also! Not as a ship, but I think Floyd and Kalim could be very fun together because they’re so different in terms of innocence and awareness, but both are drummers, like to dance and have fun, and both are insanely stubborn when it comes to something they do or do not want to do lol

Of course, Anon! He lacks the endurance and isn’t good at PE, but he has that octopus grip + apparently muscles.

Anonymous asked:

Since Deuce was a delinquent I like to imagine fem Deuce wore the long skirt associated with the Image or just pants for a really long time, but since trying to become a model student she wears the proper uniform as she gets it which involves a much shorter skirt

And she switches between being painfully aware of the length and flustered about it and forgetting how short it is and doing some risky things in it

Also like to think that she thinks it's kind of cold so she starts wearing lots of stockings

Anon!! I LOVE long skirt delinquent fem Deuce!! She would be such a good sukeban, and I honestly tend to envision her like that, so it would make sense for her to switch to the shorter skirts and of course of course forgetting about how easy it is for her to flash her panties now. Someone should introduce her to the idea of wearing shorts underneath a skirt (I think Rook wears those lol)

Ahh stockings too… so cute and delightful. I bet it was very annoying at first to put them on every day, but she got tired of being cold all the time…

So yeah I really feel you, Anon, I see the vision very vividly.

But at the same time, it’s also somewhat easy to imagine delinquent fem Deuce wearing a shorter skirt and becoming more “modest” afterwards. Both options have perks..!

okay so quick side note before I get into MY HEAD… THE DOGS DIED SOBB THORGI MY BELOVED

vij’s thoughts on mcd season 1

from the beginning I LOVED the whole aspect of the role playing. It felt like a visual novel and I LOVE visual novels. If mcd becomes a game or book YES PLEASEEE

it was super interesting to learn more about Irene. In mystreet, we don’t really learn about her backstory so it was nice to learn about things that fit in the mystreet universe

100 episodes is A LOT and I thought fillers were fine. It definitely felt like a RPG game with all the tasks Aphmau had to do

Dude when Zane finally spoke his first line, I KICKED MY FEET AND SCREAMED INTO MY PILLOW YALL

Garroth was a little baby bitch at the end istg i wanted to punch his face but i guess he sacrificed himself for the group

Aaron is very unremarkable. Little emo boy. I’m guessing he has more screen time next season? ALSO HE HAD A WIFE AND A KID TF

still not a laurmau fan. SORRY GUYS but I just hate flirty guys and I feel like he’s also the reason for pushing garroth away from aphmau by like taking initiative. I guess thats why people are like yass Laurence but personally nah

I like how slowly you could realize that this series got more serious. like more ideas and thought put in for bg characters, even though they weren't "important"

Dante. MAKING HIM WAIT FOR 15 YEARS SOB. And I like how it seeps into mystreet as well

MAN ZANE AS LIKE JUST A VILLAIN YESSS. I hope he does not get redeemed and is just a bad guy

favorite character would have to be Donna. I really liked her character!! Sassy women <333

also omg legit forgot half of the villagers. like... who tf is corey???? is it molly or emma thats married to him??? too many damn pretty blonde women

babe house. just babe house.

i liked unhinged aphmau. its more funny now thinking about this compared to her newer content

at the end, i think i just cried for a minute or two. not only because i finished 100 episodes, but more that i miss aphmau's old content. her roleplay series is legit what got me through my childhood. and its very unlikely she'll return to this kind of content or similar roleplays.

like s7 is probably only here to satisfy us old hungry aphmau fans, but like MID?? no news whatsoever about it.

ANYWAYS I LOVED IT SO MUCH!! it was nice to just boot up an episode and just draw while watching. i might release some mcd doodles if i feel like it :P

i never tried mcd because im not a fantasy reader, but i pushed myself out of my comfort zone and im glad i did!! 10/10 would probably not do again because 100 eps are too much for me sob

Shimmer and Stitches P2

Silco was a well known chem-baron of the undercity and she was a nurse outcasted by the topsiders. What will come of this dynamic

Silco x Reader

Wordcount: 1k

Singed looked at Silco questioningly 

Singed: you want her to work for you? What do you need with  someone like her?

Silco gave him a look the questioned why this man was even slightly concerned for you 

Silco: My men come back injured once in a while and having a nurse around would help a lot. Plus why do you care so much hmm?

Singed gave him an annoyed look 

SInged: She may not have been her long but I have grown quite fond of the girl, she reminds me of someone i once knew a long time ago. And she's way too good to be working in an environment you work in 

Silco: you care for her I see but I can assure you she will be safe in my care 

Knowing that singed may not let y/n go he needed to ensure he knew that she could be safe in his care 

Singed: and how will you do that then

Silco: ill make sure she doesn’t get involved with anything remotely to shimmer all shell do is treat people with injuries and ill even open a small little clinic for her near me so i can keep an eye on her and you can visit as often as you'd like to see if she okay 

Singed heard all of this and thought this would be good for you since he himself couldn't give you much so he nodded to the position

Singed: id say yes but you need to ask her next 

Silco nodded at that he knew this was a choice you needed to make not singed but he did feel the need to ask of course 

Y/N POV 

As you arrived into your office you asked the girl for her name she looked a bit confused 

Y/N: do you have a name sweetie?

Girl: yes but i'm not sure what name to give you 

Y/N: what about the name you were given whe you were born i dont think theres anything wrong with that 

She looked a bit worried but gave you her birthname powder

Y/N: Powder, thats a lovely name sweetie 

She looked relieved when you said her name as if you saying her name would hurt her 

As you got her settled you were  doing work on  your desk while powder was set up with some markers and some black pieces of paper just right next to you. The whole time you both waiting for Silco powder had been happily doodling away you knew she was a bit shy so you didn’t try to engage with conversation fearing you may scare her so you just let her doodle away

But eventually she stopped drawing and lifted up the piece of paper to inspect her work then suddenly turned to you. Seeing from the corner of your eye she was looking at you and you turned to face her waiting to see what she may need from you. She then flips the piece of paper around showing you her doodle and it was of two girls one you assumed was powder

Y/N: did you draw yourself?

She nodded in excitement since you had guessed correctly 

Y/N: whos the other girl in the the drawing 

Powder looked a bit shy but told you in the end 

Powder: I drew you 

You gave her a look that said aww. She had drawn you and you thought that was very sweet 

Y/N: you drew me thats very sweet of you. Why did you draw me and you?

Powder then got excited again since she really loved explaining her drawings 

Powder: well you were very nice to me and I wanted to say thank you for letting me draw in your office while i waited for my dad and you didn’t scare me either so this is a thank you for you 

You knew the story of the chem baron adopting a girl but youd never thought she would be such a sweet heart 

She then proceeds to hand you the drawing, you take it gladly accepting the gift 

Y/N: thank you so much powder i will hang this up in my office so i can look at it everyday 

This made powder very happy and she proceeded to doodle another drawing which made you smile. She was a very excitable child and giving her encouragement really helped her it seemed. But before you hung up the drawing you noticed something was missing and proceed to point it out to her 

Y/N: It seems like you forgot to put something to finish your doodle powder 

Powder looked a bit worried at you saying this which you then hurriedly reassured her it was nothing bad 

Y/N: it's nothing bad powder you just forgot to put you name on it, i wouldn’t want people thinking i made it and take the credit the artist must always put their name on their work to make sure everyone knows how well they did 

Powder then looked relived knowing she didnt do anything bad but then was sad 

Y/N: what's wrong powder did i do something wrong 

Powder shock her head 

Powder: no you didn’t its just…i don't know how to spell my name 

Finally realising why she was so sad you made her look at you since she was looking down at her hands 

Y/N: that's okay i can teach you 

Hearing your words that you were willing to teach her how to spell her own name really excited her so you grabbed two pieces of paper showing her how to write each letter of her name. And she followed you direction the best she could until she spelt her name on her own. Afterwards she showed you she did it, she then continued writing her name over and over again but then asked you if you could teache there to write the name Jinx as well without question you taught her that too. But as you watch her do that you realised why stop at her name why not teach her all the letters

So you did making a sort of template on how to write each letter 

Afterwards you look around your office to find a clear pieces of plastic that can go over the paper not finding any in the room you decided to leave for a moment to go find some in singed office. So you turn to powder tell her

Y/N: im going to go to the other room for a bit i need to find something stay here okay 

She looked a bit worried but she nodded and went back to writing her own name. You leave to go to singed office and find what you need as you walk back into your office you hear a glass break making you rush back to the rooms seeing powder crying on the floor next to the broken glass. Worried she might have hurt herself you check on her hands 

Y/N: Oh my goodness powder are you over are you hurt 

Grabbing her hands turning them over to check for cuts, As you doing so she cries harder then proceeds to throw herself at you in a bone crushing hug 

Powder: IM SORRY IM SORRY I DON'T MEAN TO BREAK THE GLASS I SWEAR I'M SORRY PLEASE DON'T BE MAD AT ME PLEASE!!!

Shocked at what she is saying, you try to calm her down, hugging her back and then caressing her head while shushing her telling her everything's okay as her cries die down. You proceed to pry her off you so you can see her properly. You then wipe her tears away and push her hair out of her face

Y/N: i'm not mad at you powder, i was just worried you hurt yourself plus why would i be mad at some broken glass, when it was clearly an accident 

Power then proceeded to cry again not as bad as before but their was clear grief in her tears

Powder: because im a jinx and i ruin everything 

Hearing her say that you pull her into a hug quickly, sense she had been through alot you knew she needed some comfort 

Y/N: powder don't ever call yourself a jinx and you dont ruin everything okay accidents happen and that doesn't make you a jinx never. At least not to me okay 

Powder pushes herself off you and looks at you giving you a nodded seeing as she cant speak right now. You again caress her hair making her lean on your chest you let her seeing that she may need this type of closeness so you pick her off the grow and caring her towards you bed in the office you proceed to grab and pillow and put in against the wall next to your bed so you can lean on it and just sit there as powder slowly falls asleep in you lap

WIP Whenever

This time I was tagged back by my good buddy @spinfins and because I don't wish to give my entire next chapter (Chapter 14 "Slow") away piecemeal by WIP tags (two pieces are already out in the wild!), I decided to edit and excise a piece from the chapter thereafter, Chapter 15 "Arrangements", for an extra fun extra future glimpse. I'll also add in the summary vibe song extract for that chapter because it sets an absolute MOOD. -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Summary:

Has the vibes of:

… When did it end? All the enjoyment I'm sad again, don't tell my boyfriend It's not what he's made for What was I made for? … 'Cause I, 'cause I I don't know how to feel But I wanna try I don't know how to feel But someday I might Someday I might Think I forgot how to be happy Something I'm not, but something I can be Something I wait for Something I'm made for Something I'm made for “What Was I Made For?”, Billie Eilish ---------------------------------------------

In memory of Rupert and Elannora Volkarin. They walk eternity hand in hand.

“Hello!” I greet the tombstones as I sit down in front of them, crossing my legs and pulling my ankles up towards my hips. “It’s me, Rook. Back again so soon, I guess.”

It’s nice to see Emmrich’s preservation spell holding up well for their flower arrangement. Not a hint of any wilting yet.

“I hope you don’t mind,” I continue, “but I guess you two probably don’t get many visitors aside from him, do you?”

Why I pause as if there’s any possibility of a spoken answer, I’m not sure. Maybe to try and make this somehow feel a bit less awkward? Gain a more natural conversational flow, if that’s even possible?

“I didn’t really get the whole parental experience when I was growing up,” I explain, “so I guess that’s partly why I came out here today. In a way, you’re the closest thing I have to that now since maybe there’ll eventually come a day where I could call you my in-laws.”

That makes me smile, and then I laugh out loud at the memory of Emmrich saying he was always considered ‘too much, too soon’ while I’m over here already adopting his dead parents mere days after agreeing to become a couple.

“He still loves you two very much, though I’m sure you already know that. I can see it in his eyes whenever he shares another memory of you with me. It’s heartbreaking, really. I wish I could’ve had the chance to meet you both while you were still alive…”

A needed pause to fight against getting too choked up here.

“I hope you would’ve liked me,” I sigh. “I know I’m not human, but I really care about your son. A lot. You raised such a good, pure-hearted man - you’d be so proud of him, I think. I promise I’ll always protect him and he will never be lonely again. Not so long as I draw breath.”

And therein lies the crux, doesn’t it? My years are already shortened by my blighted blood, but even if they weren’t, what’s a mortal lifetime to a Lich Lord? Would Emmrich even remember me after a few decades, a few centuries?

I ball my hands up into fists, trying to swallow the sorrow. That entire conversation about lichdom had completely blindsided me and I find myself still struggling with all the potential consequences.

“I’m scared,” I admit to the Volkarins, patiently enduring my monologue. “I know what I want, and that’s desperately for Emmrich not to go down this path. If the ritual fails? I lost Laramie to the Calling. Now I might lose Emmrich to a bid for lichdom. I won’t be opening my heart up again for a third time. But I think what scares me just as much is if it succeeds, and it’s all for entirely selfish reasons.”

I pause to catch my breath before continuing, feeling my heartbeat quicken. “I know the chances would be slim to none that I could have ever given you grandchildren. You don’t really hear about any half-Qunari and there’s probably some pretty depressing reasons for that. And becoming a Grey Warden practically makes you infertile - not entirely, but any of us having kids after the Joining is pretty rare, too. But we could have tried. And, dammit, I know I’ve lived most my life without touch but now? Now that I’ve discovered how fucking wonderful it is, he wants to throw all that away?”

Fuck, I’m so upset that I’m sitting here cursing in front of his parents. A flush of embarrassment adds to the angry heat of the moment and I close my eyes, trying not to raise my voice any louder or burst out into tears.

“And those are all terribly selfish reasons to hold him back from his lifelong dream,” I sigh. “An end to his fear of death. An eternity being the most important and senior of the Mourn Watch. Who am I to even think about trying to sway him away from that? What audacity I possess to think our short time together should trump something he’s wanted for longer than he’s even known me?”

I am… just so insignificant in comparison to all that. And that hurts, too. But these are all my own problems and issues, not his. Somehow, I need to find a way to come to grips with this because I do intend to make good on my promise to stay by his side, no matter what path Emmrich’s life takes.

But it’s fucking terrifying to think about. And nearly impossible not to mourn in advance the future loss of a lifetime of intimacy together, even simple and chaste actions like warm hugs and soft kisses.

I bury my face in my hands and weep inconsolably. How cruel and unfair this life is, to have finally found something so wonderful and only get to enjoy it for so short a time. After all this torment and suffering… but then again, I guess that’s what I was made for.

In a brief moment of what I can only describe as temporary insanity, I consider how I might attempt to corpse-whisper Emmrich’s parents and truly ask for their own opinions. I even try to put myself into what I assume is a similar mental space for such an attempt - the same exercise my necromancer taught me for trying to commune with wisps - even though I know damn well actual corpse-whispering is a rare talent that I am extremely unlikely to even have and if I do, engaging in it here and with them would likely be unforgivable.

But grief does strange things to a person and right now I am grieving everything that would be lost to lichdom.

As I stretch my senses deeper into the surrounding Fade, opening myself up fully to receive, I hear Manfred’s reedy voice instead. 

“Be okay!” he shouts, and then I feel a weight thump heavily against my chest.

When I open my eyes and look down, there the wisp is with his bony arms wrapped tightly around my torso. I return the hug, clinging to Manfred like a lifeline to try and bring myself back from the line I’d been willing to cross, the trust I’d considered trying to break for my own self-centered reasons.

“Be okay,” he intones again.

I squeeze his skeletal body even closer and place a kiss on the top of his skull, pretending I’m doing this to a lich Emmrich to try and begin preparing myself for that possibility. It… doesn’t help much at all and the tears come on stronger as I slam my eyes shut again and curl in on myself and, vicariously, my wisp son in the process.

“No cry, Rook! Be okay!” Manfred begs and that genuinely hurts my heart.

After this poor wisp practically hisses and shakes me in desperation, I finally pry my eyes open once more and gasp. From between the Volkarins’ tombstones, a shadowy apparition approaches. At first, they’re nothing more than a thin silhouette but as they near us, they pause, tilt what I presume is their head, and partially solidify looking uncomfortably too much like me… including the sawed-off horns.

“Um, hello?” I awkwardly greet them.

“Devotion endures all things,” they reply with a disembodied, echoing voice.

“Who are you?” I ask, and Manfred turns to look at them as well. He seems just as fascinated as I am in this new mystery presence.

“Devotion endures all things,” the incorporeal not-me repeats, “Devotion believes all things, and Devotion never fails.”

“Rook, darling?” Emmrich’s voice behind me immediately snatches my attention away and I spin around. “Is that a…?”

When I glance back over my shoulder, the Spirit of Devotion has disappeared. That in no way, shape, or form slows me down from running to my necromancer and lifting him up playfully into a spinning hug before I set him back down again, both of us laughing breathlessly. Then, I frame his face with my large hands and practically devour his lips, not wasting a single moment or taste of however long I may have left of his current mortality.

Once I finally allow us to break apart, I smile down at him. “So, looks like you somehow managed to survive Harding’s three-day camping trip?” Tagging only those who wanna hop in again LOL. But tagging @spinfins for this nice low-key remix of the song that drives this chapter and, as you know, a lot of my EmmRook in general LOL https://youtu.be/-dEV3QBfMFs?si=mioejbHWY8m572jQ

hi! li's anon here (again). i'm glad my little drabble did make you feel a bit better! and that you don't have cancer!! and that you aren't precancerous either!!! that's such good news!! also the cody and rex lego???? god i am envious of you right now alkjfhsakdf i am trying to save up for a few figures from star wars but my expenses said no this month :(

anyways. HOW COULD YOU FORGET LIFELINE!!! (this is funny because i saw your post of what you wanted to draw and i was like, "no lifeline?? :((" and spent the day away from home sad thinking about lifeline and how i would ask u "please please please draw him too" once i was home and could send an ask -it doesn't work on my phone i don't understand why either- and then i came and u were like: I FORGOT LIFELINE and i was like "THEY FORGOT LIFELINE!!! WE'LL GET LIFELINE DRAWINGS!!!! :DDDDD" and now i am happy again lmao) LIFELINE AND BURNT BREAD DRAWINGS!!!!! I'M HAPPY!!!! also,,,, that one bacara x toast,,,, pls be toast blowing bacara pls pls pls pls pls pls

I'M GLAD YOU THINK THE CAPTAIN IS SWEET ON LI BECAUSE I ALSO THINK SO!!! tender interludes,,, yes please,,,,, captain x lifeline,,,, hmaksnfkasksdf

i adore lifeline so very much, and it was such a surprise for me, truth be told. i was scrolling through the clone trooper oc tag and saw ur burnt bread and was like "ooh, they're nice!" and then i got curious and snooped a little bit, and found lifeline, and now i can't be normal about him for even a second. lifeline my beloved, your sadness is infinite but so is your hope, so is your mercy. he deserves to be hold and loved and kissed in the forehead and and and ;;;;;;;;;

even if it's in snippets, i would love to see and read about them!! burnt bread have such a cute and spicy dynamic that makes me want to observe their courting habits and behaviour under a magnifying glass.... i like the idea of toast giving lifeline hugs. go toast fullfill my dream!! give that man a thousand hugs!!!! puppy-coded toast is best toast indeed. also, the image of ashe hovering over toast in the medbay and li holding the hypo with the sedative like "let me DO MY JOB OR GET OUT" but no threats, just Stare. i think ashe gets it. but also li showing ashe how to care for toast's injuries.... ;; ashe taking care of toast my beloved ;;

i'm also really curious about the missions and battles you want them to partake on, i'm looking forward to it! so very much!!

and as for the medics with the wing tattoos, i get u, i also go very weak for the trope! and for lifeline because oh my god. i think at this point we all know there's someone out there (me) obsessed with your oc lol. anyways. the captain tenderly kissing lifeline's wing tattoo, hands firm but gentle, softly calling out to li as he thrusts deeper, "come on, angel..." lifeline letting out moans, hands gripping the sheets..... ok i'm stopping but. just the thought of li being taken care of in every way is absurdly appealing. i need him wrapped in the softest blankets illegally acquired and cuddled against someone's chest and lovingly held. and also wrecked tenderly and for goddamn hours. and also for his patients to see a halo around him as he tries to save their lives. and also for him to experience not only death but the gift of life. like i need him at some point to assist with a birth in some backwater planer they're on a campaing on and just. hold a baby in his arms and be awed and torn apart at the thought of the medbay also leading to such miracle. ugh lifeline makes me so weak *sobs*.

EHEM stepping back from my lifeline-brain for a second to tell you that both the ask sketches (i asked for one! and i'm waiting impatiently for when you get more followers so i can ask for lifeline sketches. fear not i will refrain myself from bothering you too much but just know i shall be there when u open the oc asks) and the art of ashe in bed (hooo boy if i speak) are beautiful and i adore them very much. also ashe with loose hair... and u saying toast braids ashe's hair... UGH after sex braiding ritual is burnt bread aftercare core now i fear

alright i'm gonna stop yapping now (i feel like these are getting longer lol) but again, i'm glad that although you've got ten thousand things to be wary of, cancer isn't one of them! so happy for you! bye-bye!!

AAAAAAAAA THANK YOU I’M SO GLAD!!! I like to sit on these asks sometimes because it makes me smile to see them in the box, happy little eggs full of sunshine 🥰

god legos really are insane expensive but they’re so fun and satisfying, I wish your expenses a very pleasant cooperate

And YESSSS the Toast x Bacara piece will be Bacara getting sloppy toppy and rewiring Toast’s whole brain

Toast is SUCH a puppy, he’s always trying to brighten someone’s day or have fun, and that definitely extends to Lifeline to make sure he doesn’t isolate too much. Li bears it with grace because he knows Toast means well, and Toast gives the best hugs

I’ve gotta start brainstorming ideas for Li’s captain because now I’m attached to them fkdjgfggh, a loving captain and his pillow princess angel who deserves to be adored and doted on

Because the 212th is a battalion and battalions have four companies within them (and thus four captains), I’m thinking he’s a captain of a company parallel to Ghost. Li is a corporal medic in Ghost, so then this wouldn’t be fraternization with a CO (even though those lines get blurred ALL the time but it’s the principle of the matter for Li). Toast was part of that company until he got irreparably attached to Ashe (who’s a Lieutenant in Ghost), and thus got moved for cohesive and Ashe wrangling reasons LMAO

But ough speaking of burnt bread and missions, one of them is Umbara and y’all aren’t gonna like me for that one

And OUGH LIFELINE GETTING TO HOLD A BABY……. Cries loudly I need this for him sO badly

But aaaaa I’m so glad you’ve been liking the portraits! They’re so fun to do, and it’s great practice. Ashe looks so good with his hair down and I know it makes Toast lowkey insane with GOTTA TOUCH energy, so I love the braiding being an aspect of aftercare. Now I gotta draw Ashe riding the hell out of Toast 😌

Dead x men spoilers: Hank x Cecilia crumbs I feel so alive

"Cecilia . . . I should - I should call her. I haven't talked to her in, oh, years."

"Where does all the time go, my friend? It feels as though it was just last year we were . . . and I was . . . ah."

". . . Ah, that's right. How silly of me. I almost forgot. That's where all the time went. I broke it all."

" - But enough being maudlin. I really should call Cecilia, see how she's doing. Perhaps she'll want to go out for dinner, see a show. That'd be nice. Really, quite nice . . ."

So, Dead X-Men #3 - and you weren't kidding, these are crumbs.

But. I can't lie, I love seeing what seems to be cat Hank again - I feel like such a hipster sometimes, saying that's my favourite version of him, but it's how I feel - and it's nice to see Foxe remember that Hank is a protective and gentle soul at heart.

Granted, I forget the specifics of Moira's first life, so god knows what happened in that timeline and how it might've affected Hank here, but he looks like a soft boy.

Also, you've just sent me down a rabbit hole, because I knew Hank and Cecilia were a thing, and I was very much in favour because Cecilia is fucking awesome, but I only really knew about the 90s stuff and the occasional hint afterwards!

I was not prepared to find out that Marjorie Liu is a massive Hank/Cecilia shipper and kept finding reasons to call back to it and push them together.

NYX: No Way Home, issue #4, 2008. Bonus points for saying she fucking hates Trish Tilby, and I can only imagine why.

X-23, vol. 3, #13. I have to say, this is one of the fucking single cutest pictures of Hank I've ever seen - Noto draws him with such a wonderful softness and cuddliness to his face, and I adore how happy Cecilia looks in the picture. You really get a sense of warmth from the picture.

Also . . . no less than two pictures in the home, huh, Cece?

Astonishing X-Men #53. Honestly, Liu writes a lovely Hank, and I adore how she handles the softness and warmth that clearly exists between these two?

Hank's historically always been something of a ladies man, but I've never gotten the impression that he ever left his exes on bad terms unless they put him in that position (hello, Trish), and the fact that he and Cecilia have that certain intimacy that speaks to love that could or couldn't slide back into romance is.

It's nice and mature and I like it a lot. And maturity isn't often something I associate with comics, or the X-Men, tbh.

Astonishing X-Men #51.

Finishing each other's sentences? Fond little glances? Mhm-hmm. Uh-huh. Honestly, now I'm a little offended on Cecilia's behalf that she had those token appearances on X-Force and didn't have a stronger reaction to what she saw in that Beast, because the Cecilia I'm seeing here absolutely would not have stood for it, least of all from someone she clearly still holds a torch for.

And, of course, I'd be remiss not to talk about how Claremont saw the two.

Honestly, if we have heroic Hank back now and with the X-Men, who knows, maybe there's a chance. Just need to get Marjorie Liu or another shipper back on deck. :P
