I know for a fact that the 141 men CANNOT handle a hot shower, the kind that you like to take. The one that is borderline painful because of how hot it is.... but it feels so nice and soothing, especially if you have aches and pains all over.

These grown men are military; too used to brisk, cool (heck, maybe even cold) showers that last 5 minutes at most. No shower thoughts to dwell on except to get it done quickly to get started on their day.

So I can totally see that when they try to join you enjoying your shower for the first time, they are in for a surprise.

Johnny definitely yelps. He tries to slide in behind you and hold you, but the minute his arms are under the sprayer, he's jumping, almost making the both of you slip. He probably mutters some garbled whines of "how the fuck you are under that spray, bonnie, it's too fucking hot the skin off me arms is burnt tae crisp, christ there might be a demon doon here, this is hell" and then he quickly backtracks and apologizes, "you are not a demon, just a lovely angel who enjoys water hotter than the sun's ass". He'll probably beg to have the water down a little cooler before rejoining you under the spray.

Kyle asks first to join you while you are already showering, and you can see his hesitance as he steps behind you, his eyes warily looking at the too steamed up mirror and wincing as the water splashes off you and onto him. "Jesus, this feels like a bloody geyser, worse than the goddamn desert heat", he grumbles, but after a while, maybe with your encouragement, he starts to not dislike it. "This why you always are hot, yeah?", he probably teases you with his grin, and while he takes a while longer before he fully joins you under the spray, he's enjoying how the surrounding heat is soothing him and how it's making you so soft and pliable.

"Bears cannot handle hot environment", is what you say when Price joins you. "I'm no bloody bear", he will say, but you definitely see him wincing while getting close to you from behind. This stubborn man is covered head to toe in hair, and while the situation for him is definitely uncomfortable, he will tough it out so long as he gets to be in control of how you clean your body. This hairy man has a fine body underneath all the curls drenched in hot water, and I'd be damned if you don't end up having a delightful time as he cleans the both of you.

Poor Simon will join, and I firmly believe you will have to either kick him out or really lower the temperature of the shower. He won't say much when he slides in, but when you finally glance back, this hulking wall of man is definitely lobster red and grumpy. For a stoic person, his body sure does a lot of the talking for him, especially when it is laid bare in front of you, and all you can read off him is that he will stay with you for your entire shower.

Lemme rephrase my point, they cannot handle a hot shower unless YOU are in it.

the boys crush is putting on chapstick, accidentally maybe a little too much, while deciding where to wipe it off...they choose violence! they decided to wipe the extra on his face MWAH they smack a kiss onto the boys cheek and run! they evade capture somehow and the guys end up having to go home. they get caught out in the sun for a little too long. when they get home they realize their whole face is burnt/ tanned- except for one kiss-shaped spot on their cheek. that chapstick had SPF in it. whatre they gonna do

Lmao this is a funny idea! Here's how I think they would each react

Takemichi- He honestly doesn't care at all, he's too busy cherishing the mark and the memory to get annoyed or upset. He's also very exited to show his friend's tomorrow and boast about it.

Mikey- Hmm? He's a bit confused at first and tries to rub the mark off but then it dawns on him. Smiling, he decides to do the same to you tomorrow, you don't get to defeat the former leader of toman that easily.

Draken- Groaning he looks at his face again, isn't sure how he can go to work with his face looking like this. The kiss was a nice surprise but he wishes it didn't happen that way!

Baji- This just so happened to take place on the day he was supposed to visit his mum. So he had to sit through her laughing, asking lots of questions and her wanting to meet his "secret lover". He vows to get you back for this.

Chifuyu- Takes a picture of himself to remember this, then softly touches the mark. He knows he should be worried or annoyed about this but you finally kissed him so how can he be annoyed???

Mitsuya- Chuckles at your antics and tries to figure out how to cover the mark. It actually probably inspires him in some way and gives him a new outfit or accessory idea.

Hakkai- Eyes widen the second he sees the mark, he's questioning why you kissed him more then the mark though. Does this mean you actually like him!?

Pah- Has no idea what to think about this, calls Peh and tells him all about though.

Peh- Mutters a lot about you after seeing it and how annoying you are, it's obvious to anyone who can hear him though that he's lying.

Smiley- He's blushing and saying he's gonna kill you and is just generally a mess. Badly wishes he had caught you so he could've kissed you back. He's definitely going to try the next time he sees you.

Angry- He's still shocked even after he get's home, the mark kinda doesn't make a difference since he's already so surprised. Spends a long time staring at the mark thoughtfully.

Mucho- Is honestly impressed that you not only managed to catch him off guard with a kiss but that you also then managed to get away from him. Maybe he's underestimated you, he won't make that mistake again.

Sanzu- Takes this as definitive proof that you must like him, that was your way of confessing right??? And you even marked him to show everyone.

Kisaki- Frowns while looking at the mark, he definitely appreciates the kiss but he has a big meeting tomorrow and he can't go in with this on his face.

Hanma- Walks around shamelessly showing the mark on his face off, thinks it's cool and wonders how you'll react to seeing it. Blows kisses at you when he sees you and points to the mark.

Kazutora- Goes to talk about what just happened and the mark to the only people he knows he can trust and who won't laugh, the cats at the petshop. Spends the rest of the day talking to them about you and what happened, trying to make sense of it himself.

Inui- Doesn't really care what others think of him with the mark but he knows he'll have to deal with Shinichiro making a big deal over it. Curses you slightly but can't find it in himself to actually be bothered, not when you finally kissed him.

Koko- Immediately cancels all meetings the second he sees it, Kisaki may be mad but oh well. He really wishes you didn't run away, he has so much he wants to say you and that he's hoping to hear fron you. His no1 priority is finding you.

Taiju- He's laughing. You really think you can get away with that? That he'll let you only give him a quick kiss like that? Oh he's definitely getting revenge for this and for you to give him a proper kiss.

Izana- You marked him? Izana hums thoughtfully as he looks at himself in the mirror before grinning. He's thinking about marking you back, leaving bite marks over your neck and seeing how you like it. You are the one who started it after all.

Kakucho- He's blushing so much, he just keeps replaying the memory of the kiss in his head. He's not really sure what it means though, why did you run? Wants to ask Izana for advice but knows he'll laugh at him.

Ran- Decides the kiss mark is actually kinda a look and decides to keep it instead of trying to cover it. Will tell everyone you did this and boast as much as he can, all while smiling smugly at you.

Rindou- Immediately works on trying to cover the mark, Ran is definitely not allowed to see this.

Shion- He's definitely boasting a bunch about this, though he's not mentioning the whole part about you running away and him not being able to catch you. He excitedly points to the mark a lot.

Mochi- He isn't sure if he's more embarrassed about the kiss, you getting away from him or the mark. But he's very embarrassed.

South- Is very excited about this, he views it as a game between the two of you now. And it's his turn to give you a sneak kiss now. Doesn't even care about the mark, actually he thinks it's nice that for once it's not an injury marking him.

Wakasa- Frowns before smiling slightly at the mark on his cheek. Thinks it's cute how you'd do something like that but then get so embarrassed that you run. He wants more though.

Benkei- Makes a loud "huh!???" when he notices it. Definitely wants to talk to you even more now, why did you just do that!???

Shinichiro- He's practically jumping for joy, even after noticing the mark. Wears it proudly to show everyone that someone does like him!!!!

I have more unhinged thoughts about Buck and costume design choices, so stay with me for a bit. I will be using Buck's previous relationships to make the point tho, so tw Taylor Kelly.

This started going around my head in a very innocent "it's so cool that they chose to put Buck in green during the coma dream" because Buck wears red a lot. Like, a LOT.

And green is on the other side of the color wheel. So him in green during the coma dream deeply bothered me for no reason.

Because like, when Buck is wearing bright colors he's usually around here on a color wheel because there's the burnt orange he wears sometimes too. So they put him in his complementary color, and the whole thing with complementary colors is to create contrast and I was mindblown by that a little bit once it registered.

But then I was making an edit and I noticed that Buck is wearing green when he breaks up with Taylor. Which is fine, we all know the whole Blue and Green thing with couples in 911, right?

So I just moved on with the idea that they put him in green because the relationship is wrong and moved on, until I noticed he wasn't always the green character. Because then shit gets interesting.

Because, when does he become the green character? When he tells her that he kissed someone else. So he's the one wearing green when the relationship starts to fall apart and when they break up.

And that alone for me is fascinating because oh my god the costume department is out there working overtime. But I am a dog with a bone and what's another time where Buck is wearing green? The fight with Ali. Who's also wearing blue, very light blue but still blue.

But also just accepted this as just a blue and green thing with couples because Ali is not around enough for me to use her to establish a pattern.

But I was also on high alert about other situations he might be wearing green, not that all of them fully registered until this morning when it finally clicked that he's wearing green on the cemetery scene.

Because another time he's wearing green on his own is when he takes Red to see Cindy and when he talks to Maddie about Abby and being left behind right after. Also when he's hiding in Eddie's place so he won't have to talk to Taylor.

I don't know about yall but I feel like this does establish a pattern of him wearing green while doing misguided stuff in his chase of his idea of romantic love.

But I have more points if you're not convinced yet.

We established that he wears a lot of red and that the thing with complementary colors is contrast, right? I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that there's a set pattern on when he wears red because he wears red in multiple circumstances, but I will tell you a few scenes that back me up.

Because baby boy is wearing red when he finally lets go of Abby, on both occasions, and when he's literally talking to Maddie about what love really means leading to him finally making the right choice to stop hanging on to Taylor.

He wears red when he finally does the right thing when it comes to love and he wears green when he's trying to convince himself he's doing the right thing. Contrast.

This show is crazy. Insane. Absolute madness.

Edit:

Okay, extra point here. I went against adding this particular scene because I legit can't tell if his shirt is green or blue here. But I got a reply here and decided to check.

so it went to color-hex to try and determine it, well, this is definitely a shade of green. I actually made a whole pallete of his shirt. This is definitely green.

So another point to team he does misguided shit on his quest for love in green clothing because this is the scene where he's telling Maddie about Abby and Maddie is telling him that she's bagging other guys but he chooses to ignore it.

Am i crazy? probably. But what's that thing once is a chance twice is a coincidence and three is a pattern? Thats 4 scenes with the green and him doing stupid shit in the name of love.

𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙏𝙬𝙤: 𝙎𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝙞𝙙𝙞𝙤𝙩?

The doors slam shut behind me with a resounding thud, sealing off the chaotic world outside. Suddenly, the school feels like a different universe—eerily quiet and strangely deserted. The only sound piercing this unnatural silence is the blaring alarm, its shrill cries echoing off the empty lockers and tiled floors. It's like standing inside a ringing bell, the noise so loud yet oddly muffled by the closed doors, as if the world outside is pressing its hands against the glass, trying to get in.

I take a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. My palms are sweaty, and I can feel the rapid thump of my pulse in my ears, competing with the alarm. I need to focus, to think clearly, but it's hard when every cell in your body is screaming at you to run. Instead, I force myself to stop, to listen. I tilt my head, trying to sniff the air. There's a hint of something acrid, like burnt plastic, but it's faint. I hope it means the fire is far, maybe on the other side of the building. That's where I won't go.

Walking down the hallway, I peek into each classroom I pass. The chairs are upturned, books strewn across the floor—a frozen scene of a hurried evacuation. No flames lick the edges of these rooms, no smoke curls under the doors. Just empty spaces, holding their breath.

As I move, the building suddenly shudders—a violent tremor that throws me off balance. It's not just a small shake; it's as if the earth itself is roaring beneath my feet. I stumble, my hands flailing for something solid. Nothing but air greets my fingers, and then, harshly, the cold, hard floor.

I crash down, knees first. Pain shoots up my legs, sharp and quick, like lightning. My hair, which I left loose, cascades over my face, tickling my nose and clinging to my lips. I sigh, more in irritation than pain, as I brush it away with a clumsy swipe of my hand. Sitting there on the cold tile, surrounded by the continuous wail of the alarm and the heavy silence of an empty school, I realize this silence is just as loud as the chaos outside.

Pushing myself off the floor isn't easy; every joint protests, and the tiles are colder against my palms than they should be. But I get up, dust off my jeans, and start down the hallway again, my sneakers squeaking softly against the slick floor. The auditorium is at the end of this corridor, a hulking shadow against the flickering overhead lights.

As I get closer, the noise starts to swell. It's a mixture of shouts and crashes, like someone's throwing chairs or banging doors. I slow down, my steps hesitant. The sounds are muffled but distinct. Voices, definitely voices—one high and mocking, another deep and growling. They're too distorted to make out words until a clear shout cuts through the chaos, "Spiderman!" followed by a harsh laugh and a name that sends a shiver down my spine—Shadowlash. What on earth are they doing?

My heart beats a frantic tattoo against my ribs as I edge closer to the auditorium doors, which are slightly ajar. The voices grow louder, the sounds of scuffling more intense. I tell myself I'm just going to look, just going to make sure he's there. Mark, I mean. I need to see if he's okay. That's all.

I reach the door, my hand trembling as I touch the cool metal. Taking a deep breath, I press my face to the narrow opening, peering into the dimly lit space. Inside, the auditorium is chaos personified—chairs overturned, papers fluttering down like lost birds. And there, in the midst of it all, figures move and dodge in a dance too dangerous to be anything but real.

I can't see Mark, not yet, but the tension hooks me, pulling me closer to the action, to the danger. My eyes widen as I scan the room, searching for that one familiar face in the pandemonium. My breath catches in my throat, heart pounding in my ears almost as loud as the alarm had been. I'm here, at the door, not planning to go in. Just looking, just making sure. But as the shouting continues and the name "Shadowlash" echoes again, a part of me wonders if just looking will be enough.

Through the crack in the door, the scene inside sharpens into focus. Two figures dart across the stage, their movements quick and dangerous, like shadows flickering under a stormy sky. One is agile, dressed in a suit that clings to him like a second skin, red and blue blending into the dim lighting. The other, larger and more menacing, moves with deliberate, terrifying grace.

"You still have energy? Or are you  just here to dance with me?" The taunt flies through the air, edged with malice.

Spiderman dodges a swipe that could have taken his head off. "Just wondering if Spirax has been keeping you busy, or if you're still sulking over our last run-in!" His voice is light, but there's an edge to it, like a knife hidden beneath silk.

Shadowlash growls, a sound that vibrates through the auditorium, "Busy tearing you apart." His next attack is a whirlwind, so fast it's barely a blur.

I watch, unable to tear my eyes away, as Spiderman leaps just in time, soaring through the air—a red and blue comet shooting across the dark canvas of the auditorium. But his trajectory is all wrong. He's heading straight for the door. Straight for me.

The impact is inevitable. The doors burst open with a crash that sends me stumbling backward. I barely register the figure slamming into me, both of us hitting the ground hard. The weight of him is a sudden, crushing surprise. Spiderman is on top of me, his mask inches from my face, and for a second, we're both just staring at each other, stunned.

"Sp-Spiderman?" I stutter, my voice squeaking with shock and fear.

Before he can respond, my eyes snap to the figure now fully visible through the doorway—Shadowlash. He's massive, covered in scales that shimmer with a sickly green hue, like oil on water. His eyes, burning red and soulless, fixate on us, and his mouth twists into a snarl, revealing rows of sharp, jagged teeth.

Shadowlash raises his hand, and the air around it starts to crackle and hiss, energy gathering into a swirling vortex of dark, electric power. His ability to manipulate dark energy, shaping it into physical attacks, is more terrifying up close.

"Watch out!" I yell, shoving at Spiderman with all the panic-driven strength I can muster. We tumble to the side just as a blast of dark energy slams into the spot we were just occupying, sending shards of tile and plaster into the air like a burst of black fireworks.

Breathing hard, pressed against the cool floor, I realize the danger isn't over. Spiderman scrambles to his feet, pulling me up with him. "You need to get out of here," he says, urgency lacing his voice as he glances back at the looming threat of Shadowlash. But even as he speaks, I know it's not going to be that easy. Not with Shadowlash blocking the only exit, his grin spreading wider as he prepares another strike.

My breaths come in quick bursts as Spiderman pulls me along, his grip firm around my wrist. "We need to get out of here," he insists, urgency clear in every syllable.

"But I can't leave," I gasp out, trying to keep pace with his longer strides. I need to tell him why, about Mark, about how he might still be in here somewhere, but before I can explain, he yanks me into a classroom—Science Lab 3B, I think.

With one fluid movement, he shoves us both into a small storage closet, the kind where they keep lab coats and goggles. It smells like chemicals and dust, a sharp contrast to the adrenaline and fear that course through me. Spiderman presses his index finger to his lips, signaling silence, his other hand lightly resting on my shoulder, steadying me.

We're so close in the cramped space that I can count the threads on his suit, see the slight rise and fall of his chest as he breathes. The proximity sends a thrill mixed with fear through me. Outside, Shadowlash's heavy footsteps thud past the classroom. Each step feels like a drumbeat against my skull, loud and ominous.

Here, in the dim light of the closet, Spiderman's eyes meet mine. They're intense, focused, a stark contrast to the playful banter he's known for in the videos I've watched a million times online—videos of daring rescues, of him swinging between skyscrapers, always just out of reach of the authorities who can't decide if he's a hero or a menace. But now, he's real, right here, so close that I can see the tiny scratches on his mask, probably from battles past.

I've heard about his power, of course, the ability to scale walls with ease and sense danger before it strikes—a tingling sensation he calls his "spider-sense." But knowing about it and seeing it in action, feeling the tension of it in this confined space, are two entirely different things. It's almost too much to believe, like stepping inside a comic book, except the danger is real and palpable, pressing in from just beyond the thin wooden door.

"What do you mean you can't leave?" Spiderman hisses, his voice a whisper sharp as shattered glass.

My nose scrunches up—I can't believe he's scolding me. Pointing a finger right at his masked face, I retort, "Don't be rude." Then I jab my finger toward the door, trying to gather my scattered thoughts. "My friend Mark... he's still in the building. I saw him sneak into the auditorium, and he could be in danger."

"Your friend?" Spiderman mumbles under his breath, and even though it's barely audible, I catch the skepticism lacing the two words.

I roll my eyes and look away, biting the inside of my cheek. His tone makes it painfully clear how pathetic it sounds. Am I that obvious? A loner, someone who might be inventing connections? The thought stings, bitter and cold.

"You risk coming in here for him? I could've found him eventually, you know?" he continues, his voice low but not unkind.

I swallow, my throat tight. "I realize that now, but I didn't want to risk waiting."

From the corner of my eye, I see him shake his head slightly. "Idiot," he mutters, not quite under his breath, and a hot flush of anger washes over me. I'm about to snap back, ready to unleash a string of words I might regret, when the air changes, growing colder, denser.

Spiderman leans in so close I can feel his breath through the mask, a whisper barely brushing against my ear. "Trust me," he murmurs, his voice a hushed echo in the cramped space of the closet. "When you get an opening, run back to the entrance of the school. Don't look back."

He pulls back slightly, his gaze piercing through the white mesh of his mask, searching my face for any sign of comprehension or dissent. I can almost feel the intensity of his stare, weighing the silence between us. Slowly, I nod, understanding the gravity of his instruction, the imperative hidden in his tone.

Spiderman shifts slightly, pressing his ear against the thin wood of the closet door. I can't see his face, hidden as it is behind the mask, but I imagine his eyes closed, concentrating hard, tuning into whatever sixth sense alerts him to danger.

The cramped closet feels even smaller now, the air thick with tension. The only light—a sliver that had been sneaking through the crack at the bottom of the door—vanishes. My heart skips a beat. Shadowlash must be standing just outside. The thought sends a chill through me, colder than the air that whispers under the door.

Suddenly, Spiderman springs into action, shoving the closet door open with such force it slams against something solid—Shadowlash, I assume. In an instant, he's launching a flurry of webbing that splatters across what must be Shadowlash's face. The thick, sticky strands glisten like dew in a spider's web under the harsh fluorescent lights of the classroom.

Spiderman's move creates the opening he'd mentioned. Without thinking, I duck to the left, my heart thundering in my ears as I skirt around the chaotic swirl of Spiderman and Shadowlash's confrontation. Spiderman is a blur of red and blue, his movements almost too fast to track as he engages our enemy with a dancer's grace but a fighter's intent.

I do as he says, not turning back, focusing only on the exit. But just as I near the doorway, three desks come hurtling through the classroom wall like missiles. The impact is sudden and violent, sending splinters and debris flying through the air. I'm clipped by the corner of a desk, the force knocking me off my feet and onto the cold, hard ground. Pain blooms hot and sharp on my cheek, a stark contrast to the cold linoleum against my skin.

Dazed, I look up, my vision swimming slightly as I try to make sense of the chaos. That's when I see it—the webs. They're stretched over the desks, thick and restraining, holding back what would have been a lethal barrage. Spiderman's intervention, his quick thinking and quicker actions, saved me from a direct hit.

Above the ringing of the fire alarm, which is still relentless in its shrill cry, I hear Spiderman's voice cut through the tumult. "Run!" he yells, urgency threaded through every syllable. His power isn't just in his strength or his web-slinging; it's in his reflexes, his incredible ability to act and react in moments where even a second's hesitation could mean disaster.

Pushing through the pain and the shock, I scramble to my feet, driven by his command and the adrenaline surging through my veins. I can't think about the ache in my cheek or the pounding in my head. All I can do is run, putting distance between myself and the chaos, trusting that Spiderman will handle Shadowlash. My only focus now is the echoing command to escape, to make it to safety, while behind me, the battle rages on.

As I burst through the front doors of the school, the outside world rushes towards me—a blur of colors and sounds. Behind me, the clash and clamor of the fight spill out from the corridors, echoing in the heavy thud of bodies and the sharp snaps of Spiderman's webs. My heart hammers in my chest, each beat a loud echo in my ears.

The moment I'm clear of the doorway, strong hands grip my arms, pulling me further away from the building. Two cops, their faces set in grim lines, rush me down the school steps, their grip firm but not unkind. Around us, a chaotic scene unfolds: students cluster in tight, whispering groups, pointing back towards the school, their faces a mix of fear and excitement. Teachers try to maintain order, their voices strained as they call for calm, attempting to herd students to safety.

Among the crowd, I catch glimpses of wide eyes fixed on me—students I recognize from classes, their expressions a mix of shock and curiosity. They whisper among themselves, throwing glances my way, as if I hold some secret knowledge of the chaos inside.

Once we're a safe distance from the building, the officers finally loosen their grip. One of them nods at me, a silent signal that I'm free to go but not to stray far. I'm left standing there, slightly swaying, the adrenaline beginning to ebb, leaving a cold, shaky feeling in its wake.

Before I can take a step, a paramedic approaches, her expression a mix of concern and professionalism. "Are you okay?" she asks, her eyes quickly taking in the bruise blossoming on my cheek.

Her fingers brush lightly against the tender skin, and I wince at the contact. "I'm fine," I mutter, more out of reflex than honesty. The pain is sharp, a vivid reminder of the desk's impact, but it feels trivial compared to the terror of what's still unfolding inside.

As the paramedic steps back, my gaze shifts to where the six boys—Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle, Jeno, Renjun, and Jisung—still stand. They haven’t moved, just exchanging hushed, urgent whispers. The air around us feels charged, thick with unspoken questions and the tang of fear that’s almost like the metallic taste of blood in the mouth.

Jaemin breaks from the group, striding towards where my backpack lies abandoned, a lonely island on the grass. He scoops it up, dusting it off with a care that seems at odds with the sharp angles of his jaw tensed in concern. His eyes, dark and intent, never leave mine as he approaches. He towers over me, his shadow merging with mine on the sun-warmed cut grass, handing me the backpack with a gesture that’s both brusque and oddly gentle.

I take it, my fingers brushing his briefly, the contact sparking a static of unease between us. I clutch the backpack to my chest, armor against the chaos and the questions I can see forming on his lips.

“What did you see in there?” Jaemin leans in, his voice low, tinged with a gravity that pulls at the very air around us.

I fail to maintain the annoyed pout I attempt, my features softening into worry. “If Mark is hurt, or worse, it’s on you,” I say, my voice a blend of anger and fear, a bitter cocktail that leaves a sour trace on my tongue.

A slight smile quirks the corner of his mouth—a grim acknowledgment of my accusation—but then his attention shifts, drawn away by a familiar voice cutting through the noise.

“Liya!” The call slices through the murmur of the crowd, urgent and frazzled.

I turn, just as my father, camera swinging wildly at his side like an afterthought of his profession, rushes towards me. His face is a map of worry, lines etched deep by the newsman’s instinct to be where the story is, yet now driven by a father’s fear. His camera, usually his shield and tool, hangs forgotten as he closes the distance between us, his eyes scanning me from head to toe, taking in the bruise, the dust on my clothes, the tightness of my grip on the backpack.

He reaches me, his hands hovering before he pulls me into a tight hug, the kind that tries to press the fear out of my bones and replace it with the safety of his presence.

As I cling to my dad, I can feel his heart pounding against my ear, fast and hard—a drumbeat of sheer terror. His arms are a fortress around me, but they tremble with the strain of emotions barely kept at bay. Losing Mom carved a gaping void in our lives, her absence a constant echo in our once joyful home. If something happened to me too, I couldn't bear to think about the emptiness that would swallow him whole.

Through the tight embrace, I press a reassuring hand against his back. "I'm here, Dad," I whisper, my voice a steady thread in the swirl of chaos around us. "I'm okay." The words are more for him than for me, a lifeline thrown across the turbulent sea of his fears.

He pulls back just enough to look at me, his hands cupping my face, his eyes scanning every inch as if to memorize that I'm really there, unharmed. He opens his mouth, likely to ask a thousand questions or maybe just to tell me never to scare him like that again, but I cut him off.

"Shadowlash and I didn’t exactly get along," I say, trying to inject a hint of levity into the tension between us, "but Spiderman was there. He helped."

From the corner of my eye, I catch Jaemin's reaction. He lets out a low chuckle, not unkind but knowing, as if the mention of Spiderman is a private joke only he understands. He shakes his head slightly, amusement flickering over his features before he turns and walks away, leaving us to our moment.

My dad's brow furrows, parsing my words. "Spiderman?" he repeats, the name rolling off his tongue with a mix of skepticism and relief. He's heard the stories, seen the footage, but like most, he's never been sure what to make of the masked vigilante swinging through our city’s skyscrapers.

As my dad and I stand, the sudden eruption of shouts from the police cuts through the crowd’s murmurs. Officers begin to sprint down the steps of the school, urgently waving their hands and shouting commands that slice through the air like knives through silk. The scene shifts into sharper focus as Spiderman and Shadowlash tumble out the front door, a tangled mass of color and shadow.

Shadowlash is relentless, his limbs moving with the precision of a machine, his powers manifesting as tendrils of dark energy that whip through the air. Spiderman dodges, a blur of red and blue, his movements almost balletic. He counters with swift, sharp jabs and an array of webs that shoot out to ensnare Shadowlash's limbs. The ground around them is scattered with debris, remnants of their brutal dance.

People are being herded back, the crowd’s initial shock transforming into a controlled panic as teachers and police coordinate an evacuation. "Move back! Keep moving!" the officers shout, pushing the crowd further from the unfolding spectacle.

Amidst the chaos, my dad grips my arm, pulling me back. His touch is insistent, yet protective, as he steers us away from the immediate danger. I stumble slightly, my gaze still locked on the battle. Spiderman leaps, twisting in the air to avoid a dark swipe from Shadowlash, then retaliates with a web aimed directly at his adversary's face. The crowd gasps collectively, a sound that ripples through the air like a wave.

"Why aren’t you taking pictures?" I ask my dad suddenly, glancing up at him as we move. "This is huge. I’m sure The Sentinel would want this on their front page."

He looks down at me, the camera hanging unused by his side, then back at the fight. His expression is torn, a man divided between his duty as a journalist and his role as a father. "You’re my top priority, Liya," he says firmly, his voice thick with emotion. "Right now, nothing else matters."

I nod, understanding the weight of his words, even as part of me still flickers back to the fight. Spiderman is pushing Shadowlash back, step by step, his agility and speed a stark contrast to Shadowlash’s brute force and dark powers. The fight seems to reach a crescendo, the tension snapping like a too-tight wire as Spiderman finally manages to wrap Shadowlash in a cocoon of webbing, pinning him to the ground. The police rush in, ready to take over, but the crowd, now at a safer distance, watches with bated breath, the outcome hanging in the air like the final note of a symphony.

As we reach the edge of the street, now choked with a standstill of cars and a thick swarm of spectators frozen mid-step, I notice Spiderman perching high above on the school's entrance, his posture reminiscent of a vigilant gargoyle surveying its domain. The sight of him, so poised and distant, reignites a spark of determination in me. My dad maneuvers us through the thickening crowd, but I can't shake the feeling of an unfinished chapter.

Compelled by a surge of gratitude, I break away from my dad's protective hold just long enough to plant my feet and shout, "Spiderman!" My voice slices through the hum of the crowd, sharp and clear, carried by an urgency that I didn't know I possessed. For a moment, I worry it wasn’t loud enough, lost in the sea of noise.

But then, miraculously, he turns. His head snaps in the direction of my voice, and as our eyes meet across the chaos, I wave as high as my arms will allow, yelling, "Thank you!" with all the breath my lungs can muster.

Around me, heads turn, whispers flutter through the air like leaves stirred by a sudden wind. "That's the girl he rescued from inside," someone murmurs just loud enough for others to pick up the thread. The whispers grow, a tapestry of speculation and awe weaving around me.

As the attention shifts momentarily towards me, I scan the crowd for any sign of Mark. The faces blur into a mosaic of colors and expressions, individual features melting into indistinct shapes the further they are. I strain my eyes, hoping to catch a glimpse of him, to confirm he's safe, to see the outcome of the promise Spiderman made.

I remind myself to trust him, to hold onto the belief that Spiderman would save Mark just as he had helped me. After all, his powers—those incredible reflexes that seem to anticipate danger before it strikes, his ability to move with such swiftness and precision—are not just for show. They've saved lives today, and I have to believe they'll continue to do so. My gaze lingers on the figure above, a silent sentinel against the chaos, before I let my dad pull me back into the safety of his side.

Avengers x Reader

(I think I've done one similar to this before?) 

The team had been called outside of the state, they knew shield was on sight already.

So far Tony decided he only needed him and Steve to help out.

While they were flying into the area they saw a large area that was completely burnt out, nearly in a perfect circle.

They landed the jet and stepped out to see Shield set up just outside of the burnt area.

"So, what's going on?" Tony asked as they walked up to Maria.

"Take a look for yourself." She said giving Tony some binoculars.

He looked through them to see a girl in the middle of everything, shivering and completely naked.

"She caused all of this... But, that's why we called you. Even our fire proof and radioactive proof suits won't work, we can't get near her. So, we need you to suit up and try." Maria informed them as they nodded.

"Can do." Tony said, grabbing a blanket and suiting up before slowly stepping into the radioactive area.

He kept moving forward, getting updates from Friday that it was fine to keep moving.

Eventually he made it to the strange figure, you looked up at him.

"I'm hungry." You whispered making him chuckle softly.

"I'm going to help you out of here, okay? Then we can get you some food." He said as you nodded a little, your body far too weak to even stand.

He reached down and covered you with the blanket before picking you up in his arms.

You slowly closed your eyes, your body completely limp against Tony.

"Hang in there, kid." He whispered as he trudged through the burnt wreckage.

He brought you back and people in giant suits rushed in to take you.

"It seems the area is radioactive... But, I don't think she is. At least not at the moment." Tony said, walking back to Maria and Steve.

"We'll take her back to the base, thank you for the help." Maria said as the two men nodded, it had been a pretty easy mission.

"Let us know what happens."

--

You sat in a cell, your knees hugged to your chest as you glanced out through the glass.

Maria walked in and stood in front of you.

"We need to ask you some questions, to see what we're dealing with. I need you to be truthful otherwise we will have to go to other measures for the truth. Is that understood?" She said as you nodded a little and looked at her.

She started off simple like, name, date of birth, place of birth but then she got more personal.

"Why did we find you in the middle of a radioactive field that was littered with dead bodies?" She said as you looked away from her.

"I didn't mean it." You grumbled as she sighed.

"That wasn't the question, was it?" She continued making you groan a little and looked away.

"I need the truth, Y/N." She demanded as you looked at her.

"These men came to my house... They were after my father, he used to be in the military. My brother tried to stop them and they shot him in the head, and then they killed my mother and then my father. They found me hiding and I lost control, everything went black and all I felt was rage. I wanted everyone to burn, I wanted to rip their fucking skulls from their heads." You growled as your body began to give off a small glow.

Suddenly air was let in and it cooled your body down completely.

You groaned and looked at her.

"Thanks... I think."

--

Tony and Steve had visited the Shield base to be updated on your condition.

They walked through the halls of the base with Maria.

"So, it seems she has the ability to go nuclear based on emotions. We've created a cuff on her wrist that helps keep her calm and practically sedated. We think you'll be able to study her a lot better than we can, come up with something to stabilise her without numbing her emotions." Maria said as the two men nodded.

"So, she was the one who killed the entire town?" Steve asked as Maria nodded in response.

"Yes, she killed everyone she ever knew and destroyed her home. But, she didn't mean it. If I know one thing, it's that she definitely didn't mean it." Maria replied before the made it to your cell.

"She's completely sedated right now so it's easier for you guys to take her back to the tower." She continued as Steve made his way into the cell and gently picked you up.

You were completely unconscious in his arms as he walked out with you.

"Does she have any belongings?" Tony asked as Maria handed him a plastic bag with a single open pendant inside.

"This was all the survived on her body. I'm guessing it was a necklace." She said as the nodded.

"Thanks, we'll get her back to the tower."

--

Tony slowly woke you up in a new room they had built for you.

One that could contain you if you had an outburst.

You groaned and slowly sat up and rubbed your face.

"Tony?" You muttered in confusion.

"Hey, kid." He said with a smile.

"You're at the tower now, I know Maria filled you in with what's happening. Do you want me to leave you to rest?" He asked as you nodded.

"Wait... Before you go. I want to ask you something." You whispered as he sat on the side of your bed.

"Ask away, kid." He replied, you looked away from him.

"I don't feel bad... I miss my family, but I don't feel bad about killing anyone. I'm a monster, aren't I?" You whispered as Tony looked at you sadly.

"I don't think you're a monster, Y/N. I think that your mind is trying to deal with all of this. Sometimes our minds can block things out of force us to feel certain things to protect us." He said in response as you nodded a little.

"So... I'm not a terrible person?" You asked, still not looking up at him.

"No, Y/N. You're not a terrible person, you're a survivor."

I see you've listened to Re-Slayer's Take, and I wondered if you had any thoughts you want to share, particularly regarding the editing choice to cut out non-character/ non-in-world talk and interactions, as well as the inclusion of DM PCs.

I'm enjoying it, but it definitely took a lot of getting used to.

If you don't feel like you have anything particular to say, that's totally cool too!

It did take some time to get used to! I think the editing choices make sense for what it is - they want it to be relatively short so that younger listeners won't get bored. As someone who's listened to a lot of actual play, including less-edited podcasts that cut episodes at about an hour, I think that's a good idea, because your options even for shows that are edited but include table talk (D20, NADDPod, TAZ, Rusty Quill Gaming, Worlds Beyond Number, Burnt Cookbook Party, etc) are limited to "2 hour episodes" or "it takes 5 months to finish a minor sidequest." I also think that quite young children might struggle with the in character vs out of character divide, especially since not everyone is doing that intense a voice.

I like the DM PCs here! Some of it is just that it's necessary given the classes the party chose, plus it means that Timpani can transport them quickly, and Poogs is just fun and helpful. I think the other consideration for all ages is that like, you really don't want a death spiral sort of combat, and having DM PCs is a good way to prevent that.

Basically I think it's very good for what it is intending to be. My preference is definitely for longer works with table talk and worldbuilding digressions, but I am also an adult who's been a big fan of this medium for 7 years, and making a show that is accessible and entertaining to a child while still being engaging enough for adults who are already down to listen to 4 hour episodes is really hard, and they succeeded!

Today is one of those bad brain days where I feel lonely and am definitely feeling the burn out.

I went two weeks without a proper break at work, I really could not be on my phone at work for like... At least a month, if not longer... Wife and I are on different sleep schedules and while I miss my family... with the looming election and their political views I am not really interested in expending what little energy I have to go and see them atm.

I felt very defeated coming home and once again having no parking... and on the walk from the car to the house had the dawning realization very randomly that I get it. I randomly realized when I was younger I had no idea how someone so funny and seemingly happy like Robin Williams could take his life.

No, i am not suicidal. But I am so incredibly sad and burnt out and yet spend most days anymore just literally trying to make people smile and laugh because otherwise I feel like I can't. Beyond my wife and small family, that is my joy right now. And I feel like I can't even really enjoy it.

I find myself reading every comment but can't bring myself to strike up conversation. Or, if I respond it is not usually to carry conversation. I don't feel like I really know how to do that right now, unless it's customer service me. The performative bullshit I can do. I say that but really it is because I care. I have considered lately, if the emotional tax of my current job is too high. I feel like it's contributing to these issues. To this bone deep fatigue that seems to follow me every day and that seems to be getting worse.

I've interacted with some funny and very talented people and feel like just social fumble after social fumble the last few years. And got more and more, this since moving to the city.

Maybe we'll get lucky and catch a break with an apartment back where I am from soon. Or maybe get lucky with my wife's attempts to get disability.

Yall are cool and fun. I hope you're doing well if you read this far. Just needed to thought dump somewhere after smoking. I do miss fandom I'm just so bad at being a person right now.

I did just text someone, which feels like a monumental feat. Hopefully, I can put effort into reconnecting with friends and family... Maybe work through some of this.

I have felt accomplished the last two days, going to bed and waking up earlier. Getting things done before work... but I feel like this won't be sustainable. I honestly might fuck up tonight with how off I feel. :/

[findroleplay]

hello chat, im looking for some literate roleplays for a couple of fandoms! (but yes please be literate, because that's what i write and i get pretty bored otherwise. or at least just give me enough to work with because sometimes even i get burnt out writing a ton at once)

there isnt anything im uncomfortable with (if anything pops up i will let you know) and if anything makes you uncomfortable please let me know and i will avoid it. i love plots that have a mix of everything in them, and long-term plots are some of my favorites (multiple smaller threads make me a little bored, so having a consistent rp is great!)

i'm willing to do a double up with oc's. only with the danganronpa series though (which is mostly what im looking for), but im also fine with roleplaying strictly canon characters (thats usually what i do anyway since i find it easier) i will not do oc x oc though.

fandoms i will write for: - danganronpa series (mostly v3 im ngl but i can do any!) - chainsaw man (ive read up to vol 7 in the manga, books are expensive SORRY!!!) - scott pilgrim vs the world/scott pilgrim takes off - warrior cats (this is the only fandom i will write ONLY oc's for)

ive a couple of plots in mind for those things. Im cool with most ships but the ones im most interested in are (+ who i'd prefer to write for in italics- but i could write for either, pls dont be shy asking to play the other char!)

DANGANRONPA: - Kokichi x Himiko (PLEASE I wanna rp them so bad i love them) - Miu x Kirumi - Shuichi x Kaede - Toko x Komaru - Peko x Fuyuhiko - Kaito x Maki (BIG FAVS PLEASE) - Shuichi x Kaito - Nagito x Hajime (Rarely will I do this one, the fandom kinda killed this one for me) - Hajime x Chiaki - Sonia x Gundham

CHAINSAW MAN: - Himeno x Kobeni - Reze x Denji - Kobeni x Power (Or platonically, I can play either role) - Aki x Himeno

SCOTT PILGRIM: - Kim Pine x Roxie Richter (ive had a plot in mind for them for so long plspls) - Scott Pilgrim x Ramona Flowers - Scott Pilgrim x Wallace Wells (I MIIIGHHTTT be accepting of OC's for this fandom)

There's definitely some that I'm forgetting so if you have questions about any please ask. I won't judge you over your ships (Unless you ship any of the Warriors of Hope x an adult LOL) so please don't judge me over mine.

If you're interested please reach out i promise im silly and am happy to do lots of ooc chatter. pls have a good day/night :3

[javaghoul]

Hey~ 🤗

Uta + 7, please!

Thank you so much!

Hallo 👋

Hope you like reading, because I went overboard with this.

Excellent choice btw

Prompt 7: What Uta would be like as a parent

First things first: Uta isn't a guy that had a goal of becoming a parent. It never seemed to be in his cards. Saying that, he isn't actively against having children. If it happens great, if not he doesn't mind.

Does have a wobble over whether he's cut out for the job. May seem a bit out of it when he first hears the news that he's going to be a dad.

He's not a baby guy. Don't get me wrong, he adores his baby, but he finds them a little... boring. He isn't going to mourn the loss of their babyness when they become a toddler.

When kiddo starts walking, talking, and getting into all kinds of mischief, Uta is in his element. He has a little buddy! Trips to the park, the zoo, the aquarium, or playing at home, Uta has a lot of time (and patience) for his child. It is evident he enjoys his time with them, and it isn't out of obligation.

During the teenage years, the best way to describe Uta's parenting style is 'benevolent neglect'. He tends to let his son or daughter get on with it. If they want to rebel, fine (he's honestly proud of them if they do), he'll let them fuck up and make mistakes.

I can see him having a few inner debates over whether to intervene in his kid's issues or not. On the one hand he'll believe the best way to learn is through experience, but on the other that's his KID that is going through whatever hardship. He'll have empathy for any adults that were about during his teenage years.

Additionally-

Uta is an involved parent. He isn't going to vanish at the first hint of trouble, and does his fair share of the work involved in raising a kid. That being said, he does need his own space, and will start to feel burnt out and irritable if he isn't allowed to be "Uta" rather than "Dad" every once in a while.

VOLUNTEERS FOR NIGHT FEEDS! He actually wants to get up at night with his baby! Takes them down to his studio if it's going to be a long one.

If his offspring turns out to be serious, sensible, and reliable, he'll of course be proud... but he would be disappointed if his child didn't break the rules a few times.

Actively encourages messy play/activities. He isn't going to be pissed if his kid expresses their creativity over the living room wall (he'll likely stick a frame around it).

He isn't going to create lots of rules, but if he says no on something it is a solid 'NO.' He won't fall for any form of manipulation or crocodile tears.

Would want his child to attend school, if only for the experience, but would feel slightly anxious if they preferred to be friends with humans over ghouls. Speaking of, if his son or daughter was clear in preferring the human lifestyle to the ghoul 'world', I think Uta would be quite sensitive to it, if not a little insecure. He'd wonder if it's because of something he's done that has made his kid prefer human company.

I can't see him wanting a whole bunch of kids. I think being a parent of one would be enough for him.

Is definitely the "cool" dad amongst his kids' friends. 10/10 chance his child's friends wonder if they can get weed off him. Likely turns a blind eye to underage drinking and other forms of delinquency.

[rohansoutsidemydoor]

Hey. Hey. That thing with Jotaros scars and wounds. Elaborate. Immediately.(if you want to! Please)

OHOHOOH hello there, please sure be aware that since I am unfortunately insane about jotaro this will have !!many!! spelling errors (also I just woke up).

anyways,

IM SO SO SORRY THIS CAME LATE JUKE!!!

warning spoilers for up to part 6.

I'm no medical proffesional but I just see cool wounds and think about scars which leads me to think about the consequences of those wounds, which I simply cannot comprehend.

so this all came from watching this video (well technically this is an updated one)

like-

hey okay so tumblr just crashed and i was left with the begining after a whole rant on this, i hate you tumblr. and i will just try to improvise here.

I had a whole thing for the WoF arc but for here i'll just do pics. (tumblr i truly despise you for what you have deleted)

DO YOU SEE THIS

THIS BOY SHOULD HAVE NOT RECOVERED THAT EASILY. Not to mention his throat's insides b u r n t to a crisp. Just from a food burn a person takes a few days to recover and feel relief in their throat. Jotaro's throat got BURNED inside and out. He can't have talked and ate that easily after that incident and I will die on the hill that jotaro's wounds still severely affect during and after sdc. I just believe that an episode to show Jotaro healing like something as simple as jotaro not talking as much as his throat got burnt really itches me.

not mention Jotaro's love to excessively bleed and hack up blood from his mouth, see exhibit 2:

(ok ^^^ this one looks worse because of the blood already in his shoulder, which i noticed gets hurt a lot aswell. And a gash that deep would cause shoulder pains, a large patchy scar and skin tissue)

ouch! people do love hurting jotaro's shoulder

sorry for the weird shot, but here's another shoulder wound for good measure. Jotaro here will get a scar similar to ones like a laceration scar around his shoulder, this may be more visible and straight, looking at how deep Anubis Polnareff hit it

oh and mouth bleeding in the same episode wow! get some rest tall child!

Talking about mouth bleeding, since Anubis Chariot got to stab Jotaro but that stab was most definitely deeper than it looks. Probably scraped his intestine or smth. And a bandage definitely won't work this time Polpol. The scar here, from what I have seen and researched (little), the scar could become patchy and uneven around that area, it could be lighter in the middle and darker patchy scars surrounding it.

Ok!!! Now the final battle with DIO. a lot of stuff to work with here again (I hate you tumblr for crashing on me and making me lose my work)

even with the books, he got multiple stab wounds to the chest, and enough to make him bleed. Per the usual scars, but it might be fainter since the books took some damage aswell.

aswell as mouth blood again

he also got a knife to the head, yes he had protection but hard enough to bleed. Did I mention the stand barrages and multiple broken bones that may had to take weeks or more to heal?

This TEENAGER survived multiple crashes into buildings, roads, signs AND run over and you're telling me he won't have any problems regarding physical health as well? This will require lots of rest and casts during the stages of healing. Not to mention the sever bruises just from this fight. Those bruises will probably take a few days or more to fully go away but it will still be sore and sensitive after that stage of healing.

Oh yea, he s t o p s h i s h e a r t. Do you know how much damage that is?

We can see his eyes losing color, we can see how aggressively he stops his heart and pumps it again. Doing all of that in that small timeframe should cause many problems, and i'm not that smart to name all of it but brain damage is probably one of them ngl. His heart here could be, and is most likely, really damaged and sensitive. This could lead him to having some fatigue and some level of brain damage considering the immediate and drop and lack of blood flow to his brain. There's a chance that an occurrence of light headedness could happen because of brain shenanigans.

Yayayy, let's go to part 4 now! My favorite town that Araki may have lived in, Morioh!

SPOILERS NOW FOR PART 4 AND 6

For a while there are some minor injuries, just cuts on his face and other than that we got the muscle goop jotaro but Josuke healed him all up along with jotaro who had a thousand holes through him.

AND CRASHED INTO WOOD. I know josuke healed it and all but damn! That must've hurt.

THIS MAN COULDN'T EVEN STAND AFTER THAT AND KIRA SAID IT HIMSELF. HE CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH JOTARO'S WOUNDS.

That's it for the most part for 4taro though, so we are moving the Stone Ocean!

most wounds he sustained during that part were bruises and the gunshots he got in the prisoners of love eps. But!! The Whitesnake acid is interesting because I don't think it behaves like normal acid (in which case we would've seen some pretty disturbing wounds 😬) but i'm curious if it would leave wounds, and if so, what type? We know it kills people and IS acidic so...

We also got the "JOLYNE" wound! which would leave a lighter versions of the cuts most likely in the shape of cut :), nice way to remember your daughter and feel close to her. How do I know it will end up like that? I have a knife cut myself :]

yayyyy we throat wound. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT JOTARO COULD TALK THAT CLEARLY. Joot's throat and larynx would be ATLEAST dAMAGEDD and so would his voice. He's scar would also be lighter in color to his skin and wouldn't be as smooth, might stick out a bit in some cases.

oH, AND he's bleeding from the mouth now.

and now...the faithful attack that killed jotaro

..the eye split.. now since he's...yea kinda dead..we won't really have a scar for this one. But fret not! We have everyone survived aus so this includes stone ocean. Of course the right eye will go blind and there will be scarring on the face, it may actually not be a straighter line down Jotaro's face because as it heals, some parts are gonna heal better and will lead to unevenness maybe.

anyways im still so so sorry this came late. If you want I could provide drawing for you guys the scars for each of the wounds, I wouldn't mind :]

[feeling-uncomfy]

Random DabiTwice headcannon for you- well actually it turned into just me ranting about how smart Hawks was befriending Jin of all league members(that's a reluctantly given compliment) and then into some Dabi character analysis really-

Anyway- I've seen that it's mostly agreed on that out of the two of them- Jin is the more protective and prone to jealously of the two. And while I partially agree with that– I also really don't?

Looking at Dabi's track record- he was constantly demanding and expecting Endeavour's attention and burnt down an entire forest because he never got any of that "love" and approval he wanted- these habits had already been enabled and encouraged earlier on in his life when Endeavour trained him and put that mantra of "you're the best" into his head until Touya inevitably got replaced.

Those habits, repressed or not- stuck with him. When he fights, he almost commands attention from the person he's fighting with flashy, powerful attacks that have people floored and shocked– he hasn't stopped wanting to wow people with his amazing and powerful quirk- if him and Jin were to be together it'd definitely affect their relationship, Dabi getting comfortable means he won't bother hiding his bad habits because he wants to make sure he's still loveable despite them

So when- say, Hawks came into the picture- and he got all friendly with Jin and they bonded- that must have really bothered Dabi, because Jin's attention was on someone faster- maybe stronger than Dabi knew he was, and we know Dabi didn't trust him from day one on top of that- watching him talk up Jin and weasel his way into Jin's life was probably not easy for him. I'd say he got really really upset about it and took it out of potential recruits, a stray hero or two- anyone he could roast

Toga probably felt similar for a while- Jin and Toga are the definition of platonic soulmates- her and Dabi were probably equally unhappy with Jin and Hawks's blossoming friendship- fake or not, it definitely proved as great leverage as Hawks could now use Jin as a means of getting into the heads of two pretty serious threats to Japan and not have to lift a finger or feather. Its a lot of power to hold–

Stretching the idea of this even further- Shigiraki and Jim grew close during the fight with ReDestero. Shigiraki and Hawks know well Jin's potential threat and Shigiraki- despite being asleep om a mountain- wanted to make sure that Jin's a piece he could use. Hawks is a threat to that- so if he were awake, he'd be pretty upset with it all, too.

Honestly if Kurogiri hadn't been arrested, it wouldn't have worked in Hawks's favour. Kurogiri can smell a snitch a mile away and would've absolutely fucked the entire operation up, Spinner and Compress I do love but they had their own things going on- Spinner was determined to do right by Shigiraki to the point he was blind to all else, and Compress was probably the closest thing to a "peacemaker" a guy like him could be-

The point of this is that DABI is the jealous one in their relationship, not Jin. Dabi can, has, and probably will burn a man because he laid a finger on Jin. I think it'd be cool if more people explored the fact that Dabi is Endeavour- a jealous, egotistical, possessive man- and maybe explore more on how Dabi handles those emotions without becoming the thing he hates

And I just want Jin to be a silly little man too- let him be comforted, he deserves it too :(

Last Week

Delsin Rowe x Male reader

Request - Delsin rowe x conduit!male reader request. It’s Christmas time and also after the events of the game (good ending and reggie is fine!!) Delsin and reader fell in love over the course of the game. And Delsin is talking about how he wishes there was more snow. So the reader goes “i got it!”

Delsin went to your apartment for movie night and just hang out. You always smile more when he is around and he does the same thing.

“I got the movie. So you definitely say ‘I saw the movie top gun” Delsin smiled.

“You are so dramatic. You should have been an actor” You said.

You told him you never saw the movie Top Gun which came out in 1986. He got the movie and it was his idea to have a movie night and you said yes.

You are making spaghetti and chicken, while Delsin is telling facts about the movie.

“Y/n, check this out,” Delsin said.

He wanted to show you a video on his phone. You stepped away from the stove and you watch the video with him, it's a funny animal video. Then the smoke comes from the kitchen and the food is burnt. The spaghetti and chicken are badly burned and you used your ability water to stop the fire

“Good thing it didn't get worse,” Delsin said.

“Yeah, but the food is badly burnt,” You said.

“Sorry, I distracted you with the video” Delsin said.

“It’s okay. Wanna have dinner at the mall? They opened a new place to eat” You said.

Delsin smiled. “Yeah, we can have dinner at the mall”

You and Delsin head to the mall, then got on the line to order the food with Delsin. Christmas music starts to play and you see him getting annoyed.

“What?” You asked.

“I'm tired of hearing this song. They have been playing it since November 1st” Delsin said.

He is talking about the song ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ by Mariah Carey.

“We can't escape the song,” You said and start to laugh.

He starts to laugh also. You and Delsin are liking the food and he starts to talk about why he likes Top Gun.

-----

Delsin went with you to buy a Christmas tree and other stuff. Back at your apartment, Delsin helped you set up the tree. Now you two start to put the decorations on it

“So... Are you going to bring a date to the party?” Delsin asked.

“I'm not sure. What about you?” You said.

“I want to ask this guy but I’m not sure if he would say yes,” Delsin said

“I think you should take a chance,” You said.

“Maybe...” Delsin said.

Earlier, you baked Christmas cookies and you take them out of the oven. But Delsin wanted the cookies now, and he didn't wait for them to cool down. He starts to eat them fast but he is burning his mouth and you're laughing.

“Slow down, I won't it take away from you” You laughed.

“I like my cookies hot” Delsin smiled.

You give him a glass of milk then you start to eat the cookie. Later, you and Delsin finish decorating the tree and the living room.

✬ ✯ ✯ ✫

Cole told Delsin why you're in the hospital and he went to see you. The window is open and you see Delsin come through the window.

“Nice entrance,” You said.

“Thanks. How are you feeling? Cole told me what happened. And I got this for you” Delsin said.

He bought you a get-well teddy bear and you think it's cute.

“Thanks. I'm a little sore but the medication is helping. I will be here for a few days,” You said.

“I did something for you. Come out here” Delsin smiled.

He helped you get out of the medical bed. He helped you get on the roof, across the hospital there is another building. He did a mural for you and he is smiling at you.

“Wow, it's amazing,” You said.

“Thanks. I thought it would cheer you up, Y/n” Delsin said.

“Saying thank you is not enough,” You said.

You and Delsin stare at each other, he leans in and you feel his lips on your lips. He starts to kiss you and he put his hand on your cheek.

“Y/n, I wanted to kiss you for so long,” Delsin said

“Me too. I always had a crush on you” You said.

“I feel the same way. Maybe... Maybe you want to be my boyfriend?” Delsin said.

You kiss him back and smiled.

“Yes, I will be your boyfriend,” You said.

“Cool,” Delsin smiled.

-----

You are feeling much better, you and Delsin went to see the others. You and Delsin surprised everyone when they saw you hold his hand. Delsin was proud to tell everyone that you are his boyfriend and he can't stop smiling.

Everyone goes outside to watch the snowfall.

“Finally, we get snow,” You said.

“Wish there was more snow,” Delsin said.

“I got an idea,” You said.

“What is it?” Delsin asked.

“Just watch,” You said.

He watches your eyes change colors and you made more snowfall. He starts to smile and everyone is happy with more snow.

“Y/n, this is great!” Delsin smiled.

He gave you a peck on the lips and you can't stop smiling. Now you and Delsin have a snowball fight with the others, everyone is having fun.

You watched him play with the kids, they start to chase him. Delsin fell and you start to laugh and the kids cover him in snow.

“Y/n, help they are trying to kill me!!” Delsin yelled.

The kids laugh and they keep covering him with snow. You couldn't stop laughing and you take a picture with your phone. But you did help him stand up. Later, you make a snowman with the kids and Delsin tries to make a bigger snowman than you, he is cocky about it.

Much later, Delsin goes to your apartment. He is making hot chocolate while you put extra blankets on the couch. You and Delsin want to watch a Christmas movie but haven't picked one yet. He starts to talk about he thinks Die Hard the movie is a Christmas movie. While the movie, you and Delsin started kissing each other and didn't pay attention to the movie.

[oleander-nin]

Sorry this ones really long (hohoho you are going to regret giving me permission to ask you things /lh)

Also YES PLEASE Comet's a cool name so I'll gladly take it :D

NOO I CAN'T FORMAT THINGS IN YELLOW </3 Also. What do you mean you hate green. You love some of the greenest mfs on the planet /t

(jk I actually also don't like green lmao)

ALSO "I'm not a fan of inaccuracies, especially when it's something I can fix by spending a couple hours reading articles and watching videos." A COUPLE HOURS? ON PURPOSE?? Wait maybe I can't judge you I feel like I've done that too. (And I'm going to try just listening to the audio like you said!) But may I ask what you could possibly be researching for that long? /genq

AGH I always forget that I don't have to stick to the plan. Sometimes I wanna do something new I thought of but my brain just. Doesn't think it can. And I have to remember that the outline is a vague guideline and not exact parameters lmao

THIRTY NINE WIPS- THIRTY NINE PLUS THE REQUESTS?? OLLIE NO WONDER YOU'RE STRESSED. I think you should definitely just. take it easy. You're not obligated to do anything, y'know? Of course you're burnt out and tired I think anyone would be.

Get in the car we're going to therapy, and then the spa. You are going to chill. This is a threat /j

OF COURSE WE WANNA KNOW ABOUT YOU <3 I might've said this in an older ask before I was Comet, or at least something along these lines I'm sure, but we care about YOU Ollie.

I might be calling you out again, sorry, and I won't do it again if you don't like me doing this but. I think you're under the impression that people only care about what you can give to us. It would explain why you always apologize for taking a while to write (even though you literally never have to /gen). It would explain why you don't talk about yourself a lot or even reblog a lot of things.

(This might sound rude but I PROMISE you I don't intend for it to, I just don't know how else to word it) It would explain why even now when I'm asking questions because I'm curious about you, you phrase your answers as if they're advice. I don't even write actually, I just draw and take daydreaming very seriously lol. So it's not that I won't use the advice actually, what you said was helpful for both of those! I just found it interesting that even when I said I was curious about you, you were under the impression I wanted something from you. Though looking at it now, I might've given the impression I wanted advice? So maybe it's my doing and then in that case ignore this whole paragraph

You're more than what you can do for others, okay? Didn't mean to get super emotional and serious here, but WOW you really are like me.

Wow that was messy, sorry. I have a horrible headache, my eyes burn, but I wanted to respond before I went to bed lmao

- ☄️

It's all good! Long asks just usually mean long answers lol. Sorry for taking so long to answer this, I've been showing it off to all my friends-

Things I spend a long time researching are usually medical things, fighting techniques, stress reactions, and when I was researching vampires for like three hours straight lmao. In my opinion, my time is the least I can give to have at least a small bit of accuracy in a fic.

yeah the guidelines can be hard to break from. Sometimes I find myself having grief over changing smth, then I just remind myself it's better this way until I believe it lol.

And yeah, I know it's a lot of wips/requests. It's kinda why I've taken so long to get back into my usual groove. big things intimidate me, and I did the math, and it'll take me like half a year to get them all done, which kinda sucks. And I did take a break! a like, five months kinda useless one that I regret because if I didn't take it, I could've been done by now.

cries, thank you. I appreciate knowing y'all care.

You're good, I don't mind being called out, and nothing came off as rude. It's actually kinda good because I don't usually get the opportunity to see how I come off as. also you were spot on lmao. down to every letter. tho part of the reason I don't talk much is I'm kinda scared too? and I hate cluttering up everything. I wanna make it easy for y'all to scroll through and actually find what you want.

idek what to say to this next paragraph/dra/pos. Uh. You're right. I kinda always figure everyone just wants help/advice, so I gave it. Looking back at your last ask, i can now see you weren't. I just, I don't know. My bad, I'm sorry/gen

I hope you had a good rest, and pls eat and drink. You're super cool and I appreciate you a lot. don't ever force yourself to respond if you feel bad, okay?
