the planned monthly update rate for ddvau is fucking insane and i wanna tell you why bc i feel like doody and maruu need more recognition for the shit they’re pulling off to bring ddvau to you guys
so first off. hi. if you do not know me. i am a webcomic fiend. i am not an artist nor have i ever drawn a comic, web or otherwise, but i have been an avid webcomic reader for a very long time. i’ve been reading and following, without exaggeration, hundreds of webcomics consistently for about a decade. at my last count i am currently actively following around 200 ongoing, still-updating, non-hiatus comics in a week across a few sites. i’ve also been following most of my favorite comic’s artists on other social media and reading about the process of webcomic making from them. these are my credentials for Knowing Things About Comics—no personal experience, but a decade of observation
that in mind. ddvau is a page format webcomic (as opposed to a scrolling format webcomic, like the sort of thing you generally see on webtoon). both comic formats have their own norms and rules, so we’re just gonna compare ddvau to other page format comics, bc comparing page and scrolling format is comparing different animals
most if not all page format webcomics update at a rate of one or two pages a week. i’d say loosely i’ve observed that hobbyists or people with busy full time jobs tend to update once weekly, while people making some income off the comic or with more time to dedicate to the comic might update twice, tho this isn’t a rule.
this means you generally see roughly 4-8 pages a month for most page format webcomics
the most recent two monthly chapters of ddvau were 18 and 16 pages. both of them were double the rate that’s standard for the medium and has been standard for the last decade i’ve been reading webcomics
genuinely i don’t know how else to get across how insane that rate is. like. if they were updating at a "one-page-per-update, x many updates a week" rate like most page format comics do, they’d be updating four days a week. they would be releasing a page on at least half of the days of month. do you have any idea how absolutely fucking crazy that is? double the pace of the average artist in their medium. i haven’t been able to get over it since i realized it
and this is double the normal workload/rate of a page format webcomic artist on top of weekly art on doody’s kofi! a bunch of extra sketches or even full color illustrations! i happen to know one of the next weekly kofi arts that is coming out will be a bunch of full color, which is, and i cannot stress this enough, a fucking insane choice and doody is crazy. and doody also draws the merch that they make! i know for a fact those two are planning to do several merch drops this year with unique new designs in every one
(and like, i didn’t even touch on the extra work maruu is also doing, like helping manage the fan discord or coordinating the merch drops and running the shop with their merch and shipping companies, as well as maruu’s work as a writer and her color work on the comic itself, simply bc i don’t understand much of anything maruu is doing there enough to talk about it in depth. what i DO know is that those two rlly are lucky to have each other, bc someone could not to all the shit they’re doing at the rate they’re doing it alone)
which… kind of points me to the whole point of making this post. doody and maruu are doing something absolutely fucking phenomenal and delivering wayyyy more shit to you guys than is standard or like. honestly more than what is reasonable i think you two are crazy. the amount of work that is going into ddvau behind the scenes is fucking unbelievable, like, “the longer i think about it the less i can wrap my head around it” level of unbelievable to me. especially with how consistently high quality ddvau is, especially these last few episodes
i guess my point is. the work these guys are doing is crazy and way above the standard pace, so much higher than anythign ive personally seen from any hobbyist webcomic makers. i'm sure that's lost on a lotta readers who aren't otherwise familiar w the medium, but i dont want it lost how crazy impressive and kind of unprecedented it is for a webcomic, esp one without any professional publishing backing. doody and maruu are something else for even attempting this tbqh.
so like. keep that in mind when you engage w the comics, esp in the next few months while doody and maruu try out this "full chapter every month" update pace, and def make sure to give em the support and grace they've earned w this sorta workload/pace they're setting just to bring you the story you love

In the Woods Somewhere
Ch. 2 Rainy Morning
trans male reader x Slimecicle, one bed trope, horror themes
Waking up to the smell of a fire already going, I turn to see that Charlie's already up and out of the tent. I'm feeling cold, and a little stiff. I check my phone and remove it from the portable charger we have set up, 8 am. It's early. With a big stretch and a yawn I find my shoes near the entrance of the tent and slip out to see a cloudy sky.
Charlie's tending the fire, and looks at me with a big genuine smile, "Hey, good morning!"
"Morning," I reply, stretching again. "Fuck it's early, how long have you been up?"
"Maybe like an hour,"
"Damn dude," there's a morning grumpiness in my voice that I try my best to shake off, "you eat yet?"
"Just some snacks," he admits, "thought it might be nice to wait for everyone."
"Snacks sound good," I yawn as I finish the words, walking over to the truck to fish out a bag of chips and a bottled ice coffee before settling in a chair next to Charlie.
Thankfully he allows me to sit in silence and finish waking up. Charlie's crashed at mine enough times to know I'm not a morning person. Time moves, but the clouds don't, painting everything in a light gray. The wind blows a cool breeze, and Charlie adds a couple more logs to the fire before I'm finally ready to be a whole person and interact.
"I was really hoping to spend some time at the beach today," I say, looking at the sky.
"I mean we can, but like, it might rain," Charlie frowns at the clouds. "Maybe we should set a tarp up over the picnic table,"
I groan out a complaint at the concept of getting up to do something.
"C'mon man, it'll take like 10 minutes," he says, standing.
"Fiine," comes out of my mouth in annoyance, and I join Charlie at the truck, collecting the tarp while he collects rope. He does most of the work, I just have to stand and hold things in place while he ties knots around trees and adjusts the tarp to cover the table. In my groggy state I can't help but imagine him tying me up instead. Just as we get seated back at the fire, Charlie adding another log, Ted joins us from his tent.
"Mmm-morning," he greets through a yawn, grabbing himself a coffee before sitting down. Somehow Ted is his usually chatty self right off the bat, and keeps Charlie entertained.
I sink down into the chair and pull my hood up to keep out the cold, tuning out the other two and closing my eyes for a quick rest.
When I open my eyes again after what feels like minutes, Ted's cooking pancakes on a frying pan over the fire, Schlatt's up, bottle in hand, and the three of them are laughing.
"Oh shit," I say, sitting up.
"Eyy! There he is!" Schlatt says, sounding condescending to my waking ears, "Good morning, sleepyhead,"
"Fuck how long was I out," I grumble.
"Like 30 minutes," Charlie responds, "you looked so cozy we didn't want to wake you,"
"Thanks man," I say, stretching out my now very stiff back, "Ah, sorry Ted I was gonna make breakfast,"
"No worries dude," he responds, eyes focused on the pancake he's attempting to flip. Glancing down into the fire, it looks like he's tipped a few in already.
By the time everyone's got their pancakes I feel a heavy drop of rain hit my head. We move quickly to get our chairs and the hammock under tarps, and eat while the rain comes down faster and puts out the fire.
"Good timing," says Ted, through a mouthful of pancake, "at least we got to have breakfast,"
Schlatt makes a noise that sounds like agreement as he chews. Then he asks, "Well, what's the plan today, boys?"
"I dunno man, it wasn't supposed to rain at all this week," there's a disappointment in Charlie's voice.
"We could always drive into town, it seemed nice," Ted suggested, refering to the small down with a grocery store, a bar, and absolutely nothing else. I silently thank myself that I'd recently changed my ID marker. A small town bar does not sound like a fun place to be noticeably trans.
"Yeah, I could go for a drink," Schlatt replies, deadpan, before taking a sip of his open beer.
Ted shoots him a disapproving look.
"I guess, I was hoping to spend sometime outside," Charlie says.
"Be my guest," Ted jests, motioning towards the water falling from the sky.
"I'm down to head into town, it's like 20 minutes out, we can always come back if it clears up quick," I say after finishing my pancakes.
"Yeah, let's check it out," Charlie shrugs. My lips curl in amusement at how easily he agrees with me.
From the backseat of the vehicle I peer our into the other campsites. Expecting to see the campgrounds empty and deserted, I'm shocked when I see two kids in rain boots running through the rain. A disgruntled looking mom with an umbrella is trailing behind them. There's a man in a portable gazebo reading a book. There's a couple walking a weiner dog that tries to get in every puddle. In the seat opposite of me Charlie's people watching too.
"How'd you find this place, anyways, Ted?" Charlie pipes up. From the slight furrow of his brows I assume he's got similar suspicions as me. Maybe we shouldn't have joked about it being haunted, maybe we both scared ourselves.
"I booked it online! It had great reviews and decent prices, the beach looked good. There weren't many spaces for RVs and I think most people camp that way now." Ted brags about his find.
Charlie and I exchange a look, uncertainty in both of our eyes.
"I still can't believe you guys convinced me to come out here," Schlatt grumbles. The high maintenance man had brought a lot of luxuries, and we'd all bought him a lot of booze.
"Yeah, you love it out here," Ted says.
"Yeah, whatever," Schlatt pouts. He does love it though. We all know he loves being away from city noise and people, the fresh air, and the ability to just relax. He'd been pretending to complain about it for weeks.
It's an old town. The bar is almost saloon style and the little grocery store has yellow cracking bricks.
Schlatt, of course wants to head right to the bar. I accompany him there while the other two check out the rest of the town. They give me a sympathetic look, but Charlie knows my snacks and Ted'll make sure we get anything we need and more. I shrug when they drop us off.
It's still early enough in the day that the only other patrons are a group of elderly men sipping coffee in a corner. Schlatt stops at the bar and I find us a seat in a booth by a window. The cold wooden bench and rain on glass makes me feel like I'm in a music video for a sad country song.
"So what's up with you and Charlie?" Schlatt questions, sliding me my bottle.
"Hmm?" I'm broken from my daydream with a start.
"You know what I mean," he takes a swing, "out till after dark, the looks you give eachother, the way he dotes on you,"
I look at his smirking face and roll my eyes, "I don't think it's like that,"
"Yeah, yeah, I saw you fuckers holding hands,"
"No, I mean, I was just scared," I mumble the end of the sentence.
"What'd you say?"
"I said I was scared," I turn my face away from him, back to the window.
"Oh no, I'm so scared, I need big strong Charlie to hold my hand," he mocks.
"Dude, serious shut up, it was freaky out there," I weakly defend myself.
Just then, a bird lands in the window beside us, directly in front of my face. It's small and yellow with deep black eyes that stare straight through me.
"Awe look at the little guy," Schlatt touches his fingertips to the window pane. The bird hops over to the spot Schlatt's finger is touching, tapping from its side of the glass. "He likes me!"
Tap tap. Tap tap. We both watch the bird. Tap tap. Tap tap tap tap taptaptaptap. The feathery ball of sunshine ruffles itself up and stretching its wings before hopping farther down the sill. Another one lands where the first one did. It's the same bright yellow with black eyes. Thunk. It raps on the window hard, shaking it's head. Taptaptaptap thunk.
"Oh shit, maybe the windows not good for them," Schlatt stands to pull the curtain across the window just after a third joins the others.
"Weird little guys," I murmur, missing the grey light of the cloudy sky immediately.
"You should make a move," he returns to our prior conversation. "I bet Ted ten bucks you would first,"
"Oh my god. Drop it," I try to seem stern but the red in my cheeks is making it hard. "It's not happening,"
"Sure, sure," he says, pretending to back off. I know it's gonna come up again.
"He's only dated girls, were just friends," I mutter.
"Dude, seriously," Schlatt takes a sip, "I don't think he's straight,"
A flicker of hope wells up and dies quick. We're just friends. I repeat it in my head.
From behind me the sound of tapping grows in crescendo and I flick my head around to see the birds at the window next to us. There's maybe six now, all crowded up as close to me as they can get, pushing eachother to get closer. A chill passes over me as their eyes and beaks all point in my direction. Taptaptaptap, another lands, knocking one of its kin away from the sill. TAPTAPTAPTAP, then another, and another, and - SLAM! The sound of the bartender hitting a broom against the glass rings through my ears. I jump, making it most of the way out of my skin when she turns to me.
She's older, maybe mid-40s, with a look about her like she's been tending this place for years. She's comfortable, or maybe just oblivious; enough so to slam a broom against a glass behind someone's head. With a sour tone she says aloud, "Little fuckers!" When she catches the obvious fear on my face she sweetens herself, "Sorry love, gotta scare 'em off before they bring a whole flock 'round." With a sympathetic smile she returns to the bar.
As I turn back to Schlatt I catch the eyes of one of the men here for coffee. The whole group of them is looking my way. When they see I've noticed they all turn back to their table. Schlatt, on the other hand, is staring at me with a shit-eating grin.
"Scared of some birds?" he quips.
"Of a woman wielding a big stick near my head!" I defend myself.
"Thought you'd like a big stick near your head." he takes a sip, "or is it just Charlie's?"
"Oh my god!" groan in exasperation, kicking at his ankle under the table.
"Watch it!" He doesn't drop the smile.
"I know where you're sleeping," I threaten, pressing fingers into my temples.
By the time the other two meet us we're both three beers in and I'm about ready to strangle Schlatt.
"Hey!" Ted calls excitedly when he sees us. "You should have seen the store- it's got all these old timey display cases-" he slides in beside Schlatt to show him pictures.
Schlatt takes a glance at the screen, but not before giving me a side-eye as Charlie takes the spot next to me. "Yeah man, that's cool,"
While Ted goes through the pictures with Schlatt, Charlie raises an eyebrow at the empty bottles next to us. I silently convey my exasperation through a look that lets him know I'm maybe 10 minutes out from strangling our friend.
"They got anything to eat by here?" Ted's head turns towards the bar. The bartender is leaned on the back counter, going through her phone. "Should we stay for lunch?"
Shifting beside me, Charlie speaks up, "It look's like the sun was breaking, I don't wanna miss beach time." He tries to hide the slight whine in his voice but it's peaks through on the wanna.
An involuntary giggle leaves my lips and I cut it off with a hand slapped over my mouth. The look Ted and Schlatt exchange in response makes me physically cringe.
"Yeah, fine, let's go back," Schlatt agrees in his huffy half-annoyed tone.
While Schlatt pays for his drinks and I wait for my turn with what seems like an old and unreliable machine, I overhear the old men.
"Don't forget to lock your cows up this year, Bill," one of them says with a laugh.
"I fuckin' locked 'em up, the damn things knocked right through the old wall," another, presumably Bill, grumbles.
"Stupid things scared the shit out of us!" a third one joins the laughter.
"Trampled themselves too," Bill rubs a tremble, "no fuckin' cows getting out this year,"
Their conversation drifted on to new topics, but my mind hovered over the words this year. Trepidation makes space for itself in my gut as I mull over what I heard.
I'm brought back to the present by Schlatt's hand patting my shoulder, "Your turn, man,"
"Oh uh, yeah," I step up to the debit machine and absentmindedly make the payment.
We join the guys at Ted's truck and take off back to the campgrounds. The drive back is filled with music and singing and the weirdness at the bar fades out behind us.
After a lazy few hours the sun eventually catches up with the day, and it's not long before it's warm enough to warrant a trip down to the beach. I've managed to put back a few more drinks with Schlatt and a game of cards when Charlie comes bursting out of our tent with board shorts on.
"Beach?" He announces the question.
When my eyes find him I can't seem to peel them away. Fuck, is all I can think to myself until I get kicked under the picnic table.
"Ouch, what the fuck?" I swing my legs out to rub the shin Schlatt just booted.
"Yeah man, gimme like ten minutes," Ted answers from the hammock.
"I need a nap," Schlatt stretches, getting up to take Ted's spot.
"I'll get ready," I shoot daggers at Schlatt. His eyes are closed as he settles but his big goofy grin lets me know he heard the spite in my voice.
In the tent I dig through my bag for swimwear. I hold the shirt I usually wear at the pool in my hands, kneeled on the mattress, deciding. No one knows me here, could I just go without? Scars showing. I absently trace a finger over one of the surgery scars on my chest, then touch the little bit of stubble on my face.
Just outside the tent, Charlie grabs the zipper, "Hope your dick's away, I'm coming in!"
"Yeah, man," I respond, hearing the anxiety in my own voice.
He clocks it immediately, climbing in beside me and zipping us in, "Hey, what's up?"
"I-" don't know how to respond. I clutch the shirt in my hands and just hold it up.
I see his eyes look at the piece of clothing, the one he'd seen me in when we swim laps. It takes him a moment to understand but I see it click in his eyes when he does.
"Oh, uh, okay," he settles himself down next to me. He places a hand on my back in a way that I know is supposed the be comforting, but his touch on my bare skin makes it prickle.
I fight the moan trying to escape my throat and it thankfully comes out as a cough. Fuck, am I hard? Charlie rubs my shoulder and for a second I think I'm going to fall over.
"You don't have to wear it," he says softly.
"I know," is the only reply I can give.
"Here, let me see," Charlie moves to sit across from me and gently tugs the shirt away. My hands drop and my face goes red as his eyes fall over my chest. We're so close, and when he looks back up at my face and sees the blush he turns away fast. "You, uh, you look good man. I mean like, like a dude, no one's gonna say anything."
"Thanks!" I blurt out, sitting there stunned.
Charlie digs turns away to dig through his own bag. Awkward tension hangs between us. "Sorry dude I didn't mean to, like I wasn't trying to-"
"It's fine," I cut him off, turning to pretend to be busy with my own bag.
When he finds whatever he came in her for he leans forward to unzip the tent before leaning back, "Are you alright though?" the softness in his voice has returned.
"Yeah, yeah I'm good." I nod, tucking my shirt away, "I'm gonna go without,"
"Good!" He responds excitedly before correcting himself, "I mean like, good for you!"
I laugh, and push my luck to poke fun, "Sure dude,"
"I mean if anyone's a dick, we're already at a beach, they could totally accidentally drown," he attempts to dodge the gentle teasing.
I push it a little farther, leaning in, "Oh so you're gonna protect me?"
"Ah- that's not- uh fuck," he fumbles for something to say.
Laughter escapes me and I let him off the hook, turning back to my bag, "thanks man,"
"Yeah, no problem,"
Charlie makes his escape from the tent and I sit there for another minute. The buzz of booze his my head makes itself known in the silence. I slide a hand down my shorts and sure enough, my dick is at attention and there's wetness building between my legs. Fuck, Charlie. With my eyes closed I can only see his face as he looked over my chest. I finally let a quiet whine leave my lips. Maybe he does want me. Maybe it's the beers I've been putting back all day. With every inch of self control I have left I remove my hand from my shorts and leave the tent to join the others.
Ted drives us down to the beach, and we enjoy the sunshine, water, and sand for the rest of the afternoon and into the evening. On the way back, we've got the windows down, singing some old country song along with the radio. In any other circumstance I'd groan at the twang, but something about being out in the woods makes it feel like it fits.
The rest of the evening and into the night we eat snacks, roast more hot dogs, play more cards, and drink around the cozy fire. Before it gets too dark each of us take turns heading down to the public showers. With the privacy and space of the stall I try my best to rub one out. The water is cold and I have to wear my flipflops on the slimey floors. I don't even get close before giving up.
When it's well into the night and everyone's heading to bed, I'm wide awake, drunk and hornier than I need to be. When I'm getting ready for bed I fumble out of my clothes and right on top of the blankets. Charlie's inside moments after me with his flashlight on, catching an eyeful of me in my boxers.
"Fuck man, I kinda tipped over changing," I laugh.
"Dude!" Charlie complains, "Put some pants on at least,"
I try my best to sit up, but fall right back on my face, giggling.
"Here, let me fucking help," Charlie sighs, looking through my bag for pjs, "Roll over."
"You're gonna put my pants on?" I say, unable to control the flirty teasing in my own tipsy voice, "Nice,"
"Fuck you're really drunk," he chirps right back. I can hear his smile through the exasperation.
I do roll over and manage to sit up, "You caught up to me not bad though,"
"Not even close the what you had," he tosses the pants at me.
I stand to try to put them on a flop back onto the air mattress before I even make it all the way up.
"Hopeless," he mutters, taking my pjs and trying to get my foot in through a leg.
"Charliiieee," I whine, resisting the help.
"Dude, seriously," he gets one legs through and starts on the other foot.
In the process of trying to dress me, Charlie ends up hovered over me between my legs. The whole thing has my dick throbbing and I just watch his mild frustration with awe. When he directs me to lift myself and pulls my pants the rest of the way up his hands slide up over my hips, stopping to rest on them. The squeak that leaves me sounds pathetic and I slap my hand over my mouth. One of my feet rests flat on the mattress, my knee up in the air. His body slides against my thigh when he does eventually sit up. Thankfully my hand over my mouth hides me biting into my bottom lip hard, suppressing more sounds.
"Dude, chill out," he laughs as he attempts to stand. The wobbly surface of the mattress takes him out and he falls forward, catching himself with hands on either side of my head.
I'm wide eyed as the sudden pressure on the inflatable bed bounces me up towards him. Our faces on inches from eachother. So of course, my dumb ass cracks a joke, "Damn, man, you didn't have to get me drunk to get me under you,"
"Fuck you," he grumbles, but I can hear the smile in his face in the dark.
"I mean, if you want to," I joke right back.
There's a pause from him before he pulls away again, this time rolling to the side to avoid falling. "Man, you are really wasted,"
"Guilty," I wait till he's off the mattress before climbing to my pillow and finding my way under the cozy blankets.
I hear him changing with my face turned away and my thoughts flutter over our day. Schlatt's words, Charlie in his swim shorts, his eyes on my chest, and that pause just now when I told him he could fuck me. God, there's something really wrong with me. I chastise myself. Then, after another thought, no there's not, he fucking wants me.
When Charlie settled into his spot, I consider briefly trying to hold his hand again before drifting off to sleep.
In the early hours I'm ripped from my dreams by a shaking. My hazy consciousness notices it's a hand on my shoulder jostling me awake.
"Dude, what the-?" I start, but Charlie's hand quickly covers my mouth. He's sweating.
"Shh! Listen," he whispers, letting go of my face.
I rub my temples with a hand, still a little drunk and in the early stages of a developing hangover. Then, there it is, in the distance. A barking. It's just a dog? In the dark, I shoot him daggers with my eyes for waking me. Suddenly there's another dog yapping much closer. Likely the weiner dog from a few campsites down. Then another from a different direction. Coyotes join in, yipping in chorus. The sound grows as canines from all over the woods join in.
"It's dogs, Charlie," I grumble under my breath. It's quite erie, but nothing unexpected for the middle of the forest.
"Wait," he whispers. The terror in his breath alerts me, and I also start to feel on edge.
Before long, the surrounding barking is cut off by a long howl. A wolf, but definately nowhere close to us. The dogs pause, the wolf bellows again, and the rest of the yapping group joins it. The howling comes from every direction in synch. I feel the hairs on my arms raise.
"Wait," Charlie says again. His hand never left my shoulder and it starts to squeeze, warning me that this isn't the worst of it.
When the howl dies I hold my breath in anticipation. The lone wolf starts, and when the dogs join in the don't howl, they don't bark. The sound they make is choppy, sporadic.
"Oh my god, they're laughing," I whisper. It's not a sound that should come from a dog's throat. The noise is unnatural, unnerving, but unmistakable.
Beside me Charlie is shaking. "They just keep doing this," there are tears in his voice.
"Hey, hey, it's gonna be okay," I say in an attempt to sooth him.
The shaking gets worse, and I take his hand off my shoulder. Working hard to move my body, I turn to him, sliding one arm under his head and wrapping the other around him. It's not hard to get him closer, he practically rushes into my arms. He settles his head on my chest and I stroke his hair as I hold him tight. Tears run down my bare skin, and I can hear Charlie sniffling.
"Shh, shhhh, I've got you, we're safe," I whisper as he curls up as close as he can get.
"I'm sorry," he whispers back.
"No worries, I've got you," I whisper back.
We lay like that for awhile, and eventually he falls asleep. My eyes are open, staring up into the pitch black of the tent. As I think about the days events I think instead of the birds on the window, the men talking about cows breaking down a wall, and the strange laughter of the dogs in the woods somewhere. I fall asleep too, but not easily, and my dreams are filled with little yellow birds with black beady eyes.

#it's been a little over 2 years#and ive never replayed any of the games before so im very interested in what this is gonna be like#i just played them slowly and in order + lad ishin at the end#i kinda wanted to do the judgments first but uh. they're never on sale <3#someday though#ugh im nervous though#not about this but like. ok real ones will remember that a couple of months ago i mentioned i finally asked my mom for like. mental health#assistance that wasnt her telling me to stop spiralling. the two appointments we could do were like. next week or october#i technically have enough time to get my shit together but ive also like. never talked to an actual doctor about this stuff before#and she kept asking me if i could be more specific than 'general longterm mental health issues' (and anxiety which she added)#but like. i dont wanna tell her Shit about that yknow#especially not like. just woken up at 2pm no preparation#also she added anxiety on her own. so you KNEW it was an issue and you didn't fucking do anything about it? at all??#truthfully i don't think it's nearly as big of an issue as before. i get stressed about stuff sure but it's pretty circumstantial#like these days i dont have anxiety about much of anything because im not trying to decide my entire future between 8 hour days in the#bright lights and eye contact factory#girl you don't have any idea what we're getting into by doing this#anyway if i get an ocd diagnosis that'll be the most awkward because that's the only one they actively joke about and that i've butted head#with them on. (i mean theyre also shit to npd/aspd ppl i just haven't chewed them out for it yet bc every time i do that i end up useless#for the rest of the day at least and i gotta pick my battles)#and idek what i wanna do about the Probably Autism going on man. i've been thinking about doing foster care/adoption for years now#when im older/if im ever financially stable. a diagnosis could basically nuke my options for that#but they'd NEVER believe a self diagnosis#whatever FUCK JT ITS YAKUZING TIME!!!!!!!!!#OH AND IT'S THE FIRST TIME DOING ONE ON LEGEND#which im nervous about bc i never really play stuff on anything but normal#so uh. 😬😬

For some godforsaken reason my job made me…. Almost exclusively a closer with the occasional mid shift…. Come in at seven this morning….. I am literally so exhausted I slept like maybe three hours last night and ofc when I’m struggling to get enough sleep anyways is when the stupid ass cats decide to meow all night and run around the apartment and I could hear my roommate up and moving around like ten times I am 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 I feel like shit it is going to be a miserable day

I SHOULDNT BE IN FOR LONGER THAN 8 HOURS EVER#alsoooooo my boss put a thing in my calendar for monday that takes DAYS plus requires me to bring in shit from outside work#but she didnt specify the process or mention it to me so idek what i need to bring. well thats mondays problem#okay work rant over now i dont have to think abt it for 2 whole days.....tgif 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨#im just feeling shite bc ive started ovulating today too which i can specifically tell bc of the sharp fucking pain i get from it#bc my lymph nodes fucking hate it i dont know whats wrong with meeeeee lalallaalala#cant wait for my period to start in two weeks at least ill probably have to call in sick so i wont have to go into work 😍#this is the shite part of my cycle itll get worse and worse until my period and then once that ordeals over ill get a week of not being#in pain so just holding out for that i guess.#WHATEVERRRRR. im going to download severance and go buy chocolate. and then watch a romance movie with a miserable ending#maybe even 2 movies. and then go to bed at like 8pm probably this week has been a million years long 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭#.diaries

chastity week four!
wait it's been 4 weeks already? maybe the next 55 days will pass by in a flash after all, that's what, like 8 weeks? it can do that!
it has been a busy week for us, we've been visiting with @fairy-goth-mommy and have been made to feel its chastity a lot... it may also have some time it'll need to make up later, but @fairy-goth-mommy has had fun holding its keys for it...
so it's earned cumming right? it's been a very good toy and it gets to cum now... right?
y'all are gonna hurt it more, aren't you? please hurt it, these are the most rewarding rewards to be honest... though if you give it 4 hours of nipple clamps time, it's gonna space it out over the week (at least half an hour a day though, anything less than that and it doesn't feel like it'll be worth it...)
(y'all could also add more time too, it guesses it has been doing okay in chastity and it does belong in chastity and it's been having a lot of fun getting worked up in chastity but there's 55 days left that's a manageable amount that's a good amount after that it will be able to say it really was in chastity won't it? we don't need to add more time hahahahaha...)
last week's poll was a lot of fun, with a three way tie for lowest voted option. now we have the time out option being time out of its clothes, too, the stay in its belt option coming with an instruction to say thank you to everyone keeping it in chastity (and also the notes adding time option got upgraded too)
looking forward to seeing the results this week (and it will get to see the results too this week!)
as usual, the losingest option gets upgraded next week... try not to make it a tie again?

Katsuki “asking” you to move in with him
You were almost back home when you got a call from your boyfriend. He didn’t even greet you when you answered.
“Where are you?”, he grunted into his phone.
“Well hello to you too handsome.”
“Yea, yea… where are you? I’m at your place to pick you up and ya ain’t here.”
“Heh… maybe if I knew you were coming over I would’ve been home. Why didn’t you text me and let me know. I don’t have any clothes packed or anything.”you informed him.
He does this all the time. Just comes over to your house and tells you that you’re coming back to his place with him. So very demanding.
“You have a dresser full of clothes in my room, your toothbrush and all your toiletries… what do ya need to pack?”
“Ya got me there. I’m almost there. I got stuff to drop off then we can leave.”
When you get through the door Katsuki is digging through your fridge.
“Why do you never have groceries in your house?” He questions you.
“Because I’m never here sir. They always go bad because I have a needy boyfriend that wants me at his house 25/8.”, the sarcasm drips out of your voice as you head to drop off the things you had bought.
“ Tch…. Needy. Please. You’re the one always complaining that we don’t spend enough time together.” He states.
“This is true.” You shrug your shoulders. “Anyways I’m ready. Let’s hit it.
“It’d be easier to spend time together if you just moved in with me” he mentions all causally as you guys head out to his car. You pause a little and look at him a little baffled.
You and Katsuki had been dating for about 8 months but you didn’t know he felt that seriously. Maybe he was just joking, so you shake it off and continue on like he didn’t say it.
The next thing you know you’re at his house getting ready for bed.
Kats comes to the bathroom and leans against the counter while you’re in the middle of doing your skincare.
“Do you wanna say something?” You ask because he’s just sitting there staring at you.
“Do you not wanna live with me cuz you could’ve just said that when I mentioned it earlier instead of fucking ignoring me.” He asked it harshly but you could hear the vulnerability in his voice. Like he didn’t want to bring it up but it was bugging him bad enough that he had to say something.
“I- uh…”
Apparently you were taking too long.
“Just forget it.” His eyes fell from yours and he started moving away towards his room. “Are we watching the next episode of that stupid show of yours? If not-“
“I didn’t think you were serious Kat.” And you reach your hand out to catch his arm before he can leave.
“I thought you were joking or something. Also it wasn’t a question so I didn’t know you were waiting on an answer babe.” There’s a small grin pulling at your lips when he looks at you again.
“Why the hell would I joke about that? And it was obviously a question…. So answer it dammit.”, his brows were furrowed and he was scowling a little.
Poor nervous boy.
You reach both of your arms up and wrap them around his neck. Then you lean in and press a kiss to his pouting lips.
“Katsuki Bakugo *kiss* I would absolutely *kiss* love *kiss* to move in with you *kiss*”
His arms have wrapped around you waist pulling you tighter to him.
“About damn time. I’ll have people come over to pack your shit tomorrow.” And this time he leans in to give his a deep kiss. His tongue reaching out to invade your mouth.
When he pulls back you’re all twinkle eyed and dopey in love. It takes a second for reality to catch up to you.
“Tomorrow?? Kats I have a lease and I don’t want movers breaking and throwing my things around. I’m gonna need at least a week or two. And I’m gonna have to pay-“
“I’ll pay for the lease break and you have til this weekend. If ya don’t want movers I’ll get our shitty friends to come over and help. Ain’t waiting no two weeks.”
“This weekend? It’s Wednesday. That only gives me 2 days!” You reason.
“Yea and I don’t wanna give you that so count your blessings princess. And I’m done arguing about this.” He sweeps you up bridal style and carries you to bed. Then He dumps you down onto it.
“Now how about we start christening your new place,” he says while hovering over you with a sexy smirk playing at his lips.
Hmmmm….. and just like that you forgot why it was you weren’t moving in tomorrow. He could be so very convincing when he wanted to be.

Batfam + JL (where the Justice League finds out about the Batfam by accident)
To long for a one-shot but not really a micro-fic, anyway ENJOY:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After a virtual meeting with the LJ Batman "disconnects" the camera... Except he does something wrong and now he thinks none can see or hear him but everyone on the JL it's watching him in the Batcave from a huge screen.
Wonder Woman: Maybe we should tell him... Or at least turn the tv off...
Flash: WAIT!!! Don't you wanna know what the bat does when he thinks nobody is watching????
Superman (trying not to sound to enthusiastic): Well maybe we could just take a quick look... :)
Here is a list of things the JL saw or found out because of this:
1) Batman taking off most of his armour and his mask and start working in some case in his desk in front of the computer (the angle of the cámara doesn't let see his face not OH GOD it lets se his huge pecs and arms in nothing but a gray underwear shirt
Flash: Well LOOK AT THAT, I always knew he was well build but that's a great look in so many ways
Green Lantern: No shit... This is making me realize some things about myself
Wonder Woman: ... I have better arms
Superman (2 seconds about to have a stroke): oh yea... Well... I'm just gonna... *Takes a picture with his phone*
2) A general panic gets on the JL when a dark skinned toddler enters the screen and tries to climb THE BATMAN
*Through the screen*
Toddler Duke pulling Batman's arm: *baby noises*
Batman looking away from his work to see the kid (his face still not visible on the camera): Oh hello chum, what are you doing here?
The JL incredibly confused and estranged because of that sweet voice they NEVER heard before:
Batman pulling Dukes up and carrying him on his chest while he keeps working: It's ok baby, your siblings we'll be back soon
The LJ:
Flash: HE'S A FATHER??!!!
Wonder Woman: this actually explains a lot of things
Superman (with his heart about to physically melt): ...oh... That's cute
3) A sassy teenager arriving home
Batman, still with the kid on top of him and still working, when a black haired boy enters the screen and throws a backpack on the ground
Batman: How was school?
Tim, annoyed: Boring, they keep teaching me thins I already know
Batman: Well what do you wanna learn about?
Tim (pulling a bunch of folders and papers out of his school bag): The Gotham strangulator...
Batman:...
Batman (surprisingly calm) : Did you steal a case from my desk?
Tim: I solved a case from your desk, you welcome
Batman (sighing): ok fine, put it with the others you solve that I have to present to the JL next week
Tim (putting in the desk a huge bunch of archives): oki doki
Flash: Wait so a kid do his paperwork????
Marcian: Wait so a kid SOLVES his cases???
Wonder Woman: Do you think that maybe is Robin? I mean I have never seen him from close but it could be...
Superman: I honestly need a brake
Batman *standing up with Duke on arms*: I'm gonna put your brother to sleep DONT DO ANYTHING
Tim (without even looking up from his phone): mhmh...
4) After a while of just watching Tim on his phone a little menace decides to show up
Tim (on his phone not paying attention):
Litle Damian arriving and standing with a straight face in front of the computer:
Flash (a little bit terrified): Can he see us??!!!
Wonder Woman: He shouldn't be able... But if that's Batman's kid, who knows
Damian (with the most serious voice a 8 year old can make): Computer, show me funny videos of cats
The computer *unresponding*
Tim: Dad told you not to play with the computer
Damian: Well father is not here right now, and if you tell him I'll tell him you just call him "dad"
Tim: no I didn't!
Damian: yes you did!
Tim: he's just my legal guardian!!!
Damian: But you call him dad just now!!!
Tim: you...
*Tim and Damian fighting and rolling in the floor*
Aquaman: oh so this is what having siblings is like?...
Superman: IS THAT A FREAKING COW??!!
*Batcow on the back of the image watching the kids fight without giving a fuck*
Wonder Woman: IS THAT A SWORD??!!!!
*Also Damian pulling a sword put of nothing to fight Tim and the JL freaking out*
*A teenage girl appears out of nowhere and grabs Damian as if it was nothing*
Cass: What are you even doing?!
5) A terrifying ballerina scolds her brothers (by this point the JL already has popcorns and bets on the table)
This ballerina girl who magically appears and stops the little psico stares at them in confusion
Cass: Why are you even fighting about???
Tim: None of your business
Damian: Timothy is a jerk
Cass: I already know that
*A notice from the computer catches everybody's attention*
(Batman calling them from the computer in a way the JL can only hear his voice but the kids and Batman can definitely see each other)
Batman *on the speaker phone*: Why is everyone at home so early?
Cass: My ballet class is over
Damian: I didn't go to school today, I didn't want to
Batman (exasperated): We will discuss this later, I had to go out there is an emergency in the city, DONT GO OUT! DONT KILL EACH OTHER! AND DAMIAN GET THAT COW OUT OF THE BATCAVE
Damian: But what if something happens to her???!!!!
Cass: Hate to interrupt but I have a good and a bad new
Batman: Just go ahead with the good news
Cass: I GOT A ROLE IN THE NUTCRACKER!!!
Batman (who has no idea what the Nutcracker is about but is trying to be a supportive father) : Honey that's great!! Are you gonna be some pretty candy princess or something?
Cass (who is actually gona be the rat king and is really excited about it): sure... Wana hear the bad news??
Batman: shot
Cass: Jayson is in jail
Batman:
Cass: Again
Tim and Damian trying not to laugh:
Batman: that's it *pointing to Tim* ho upstairs and babysit your brother, Cassandra and Damian I want you out of the Batcave until I'm back and someone call Richard so he can get your brother out of jail
*The JL losing their shit in confusion and laug*
+
Batman eventually finds out about this little incident but decides to ignore it and pretend it never happened. The LJ is amused
