random throwback to fabio's response to casey saying he should've been black flagged for the whole open leathers situation
Tumblr media
#'he is at home and he likes to fish' is truly superb#//#brr brr#heretic tag#current tag#i was reminded of this in a very roundabout way... seeing a social media graphic celebrating fabio making q2#which is like. yes that's nice. but that's also inherently extremely depressing lbr#and i was kinda thinking how... look obviously people don't ignore it and yes the novelty has worn off after last year#but it feels like what's happened to fabio should STILL be getting more attention than it is. like it is a major injustice#that also no past stars of the sport are regularly having hot takes about! they mostly just ignore him!#i do sometimes link casey and fabio in my head. roughly the same age gap to the all-time-great hazing them during their rookie seasons#the only riders within their manufacturers able to wring performance out of their bikes over the course of several seasons#who suffered a competitive decline as their manufacturers went the wrong way#now obviously casey's 2010 is nowhere close to as abysmal as fabio's 2024 but. y'know. and at least casey got to leave for pastures greener#anyway given all that. it is funny that like their one significant interaction is fabio dismissing casey as a fisher#which ironically is of course a deeply casey line. casey had a whole thing about how retired riders should maybe know to stfu#“i have seen the real face of some with whom i had a good relationship” EXTREMELY casey line#and thus the cycle of life continues#(though casey was obviously right here lol)#ofc the main difference between the pair of them is that fabio at heart is a lover and casey is. not that

creation of adam but it's this photo of me handing scott the martini before his buddy cole set in the KITH toronto show
Tumblr media
#just now i was feeling shitty and scrolling through youtube until i saw someone had posted a clip of the buddy monologue from that show#and the clip just happened to include my cameo!! so i may be just sitting in my childhood bedroom still unpacking from college at 2am#but on my phone is the image of me sharing the stage with my favorite comedian in front of over a thousand people#so y'know life isn't always one thing. i'm capable of being bored and stressed but also capable of THIS#i wanted to comment on the video to say hi but the original uploader's comments were off#but this did make me feel a lot better bc oh my god that was such a fun weekend#i should text scott soon to let him know i'm done with college. and see if i can make new year's a tradition again#i met scott on new years (and even tho i'd talked to bellini before it was also the day we met irl for the first time)#and last year i managed to convince paul to invite me and scott and some other friends over for new years bc i wanted it to be a tradition#not sure if paul's up for it this year but i did ask scott about it last time i was in toronto#when i asked his plans for new years he said he might be out of town (which is okay)#but then when i explained it was the anniversary of when we first met he was like ''no actually i'll be here'' which was funny#my friendships with bruce and paul are generally in a similar place to where we were at the beginning of the year#(like obviously knowing each other longer makes us closer but our dynamic hasn't changed which is still positive bc we were already friends#but holy shit december 2023 jessamine and scott are like unrecognizable compared to december 2024 jessamine and scott#and the fact that we technically haven't even known each other for two years is WILD like it won't be two years until the 31st#anyway i'm getting rambly i'm tired i should sleep. my circadian rhythm is messed up and the lighting problems in my room are not helping#goodnight everyone see you tomorrow for more nonsense

Tumblr media
there's toxic!chris.. but what about toxic!matt ?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this was so stupid. matt was such a fucking bitch! sure, yeah, you know you aren't the only girl he's fucking. but would it kill him to clean up after himself sometimes? you're sitting on the edge of matt's tidied bed—actively ignoring the red lace bra and tropical smelling perfume bottle you found laying around his floor.
he's stalking out of the shower with damp hair, a pair of low hanging sweatpants and a black tank, with his eyes already roaming over you. immediately he can tell something is wrong and he isn't sure if he wants to even pester you about it, knowing he probably won't even get an answer.
"so, like.. you okay?" are the first words you hear from matt as he shifts around to get comfortable on his bed. he rests his head back against his headboard, a pillow supporting his lower back as he crosses his arms across his chest. your back is to him, and you don't answer.
right. he should've seen this coming. just because you're silent at first doesn't make him stop though, because oddly enough the idea of you being upset (you, his favorite hoe) has his mind reeling and stomach churning uncomfortably so he tried to get you to open up.
he's putting both his hands up when you turn around and snap at him, all annoyed. "god, matt, do you ever know when to leave something alone? obviously i'm fine so why can't you just shut the fuck up?!" he hates to admit how beautiful you look and sound right now, brows furrowed in exasperation and lips parted, screwed into a scowl.
"no, y'know what, i'm leaving." he was too busy staring at your lips and your chest that he didn't hear the words leave your mouth for a second before you're suddenly getting up and gathering some of your belongings. matt is up in a second to wrestle you to face him, hands on your shoulders and shaking furiously.
"seriously, what the fuck is wrong? you haven't ever acted like this, like, ever." you're ignoring him, because he was such a douche. yeah, you get that you aren't special to him but sometimes he really was a fucking bitch. call it jealousy.. you weren't dealing with it tonight. "matt— leave me alone." white hot tears are already springing into your eyes out of anger as well, and having matt see you cry seemed embarrassing enough that it encouraged you to twist and squirm yourself from his grasp.
he doesn't get it until he sees your eyes water, and he's confused nonetheless. does he act though? yeah, because he wasn't thinking. his arms are around you in a second, effectively spinning the smaller girl in his arms to his chest. a ringed hand is cradling the back of your head, tangling into strands of hair.
"what's wrong, huh?" he's mumbling into your head and holding you a little too tight for comfort. but matt didn't want you to leave. so when he felt your body go lax in his arms he loosens up a little, enough so to tug you towards his bed where he lets you lay your head on his chest.
he doesn't exactly expect an answer, and he's not surprised when he doesn't get one. his grip is always firm, as if making you sure you don't somehow get up. because oddly enough, he wants you here. not even to fuck, he just wants you like this—cheek pressed against the material of his black tank and your body on top of his.
you're pissed off still. it's mainly the reason you're giving matt the whole silent treatment shit, even if you know it's a little unfair. he's told you multiple times you aren't the only girl he fucks, that you aren't special in any way. (you are though, he thinks you're special but won't ever tell you) you don't get why this is upsetting you, it's not like you seriously have feelings for him, right?
Tumblr media
sighh toxic!matt is such a bitch n he makes me wanna punch something but he's one of my favs

All Too Well
Joel Miller x Fem!Reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Summary: Spring means new beginnings for both you and Joel, and a trip to a nearby lake has you feeling things for Joel you haven't felt in years. But, the sudden appearance of a stranger in the night has your bliss interrupted and Joel full of worry.
Warnings: Langauge. The Quadratic Equation (Run!) Joel Miller's Dad Bod (Yum) A little bit of a Gladiator tease since I just saw the second movie hehe.
Word Count: 4.1k
Previous Part / Series Masterlist / Main Masterlist
I wrote a little Christmas imagine for Joel. It's not connected to this series but if you're interested, you can check it out right here.
February 2024
Joel can't sleep. He tosses and turns and listens to the way Ellie's snores leak through the thin walls of their new home. Anger seeps out of his body and permeates the peaceful atmosphere of his room..
Anger at himself, at the men who hurt you, at the universe in general. He clenches the hem of his blankets and tries to get a few hours of rest. Tomorrow he's due for an early morning shift at the wall with that guy Luke who never stops talking.
When he finally nods off it's well past two in the morning. His dreams are filled with you and Sarah. Of his failure to protect both of you. At some point he must've called out in his sleep because soon Ellie was shaking him awake, asking if he was okay.
He brushes her off and sends her back to bed. Sitting on the step of his front porch, he watches the sun slowly peak over the snow-covered roofs of Jackson. His eyes roam the front of your home, still dark except for your front porch light. Joel looks at the warped floorboards of your porch, his mind works out how he could fix those for you. Rip the old ones up, place new ones, sand em' down, and then paint a nice finish on them.
He's so lost in his own world of floorboards and wood stains that he misses your front door opening. You shuffle over to him, a bathrobe on over you pajamas and then a winter coat over that.
"Morning, neighbor." You say
Joel looks at your outstretched hands. A steaming mug of coffee is being held out to him.
"Morning." He says, scooting over for you to sit beside him
"Aren't you cold?" You ask as he sips at the coffee, looking at his sweat pants and a simple deep blue long-sleeve shirt.
"M' fine," Joel says
"I'd be freezing my ass off." You shrug, wrapping your fingers around your own mug
Joel sits beside you, sipping his coffee as two rabbits run by and under your front porch.
"Could make a good stew out of those." He notes
"Joel!" You gasp in disgust
"They're pretty fat, bet their pelts would be warm." He shrugs honestly
"Joel, I feed those rabbits." You groan, "You can't kill them for stew or for their fur."
"You're feeding rabbits? What are you, Snow White?" Joel asks
"Excuse me for wanting to have a pet or two." You scoff
Joel shakes his head in disbelief. You never fail to surprise him.
Silence settles around you and him, you shiver a bit and he makes a mental note to find you a warmer coat. Surely someone here had one he could trade for.
"You're really upsetting, y'know that." You say suddenly
"Excuse me?" He asks, confused
Where could this be coming from? He watches as you take a long sip of your coffee and tap your feet against the ground.
"You dumped me, said I was too young for you, and then shipped my stuff back in the damn mail." You huff, "On top of that, the world ended like a month later."
Joel sighs, so you're choosing to confront this now. He should be glad that you're finally mentioning it. Perhaps last night's conversation has made you more comfortable with him.
"I know. I'm sorry about that, I was being a real asshole." Joel says sincerely
"Then why'd you lie?" You ask
"Lie?" Joel asks, confused as to what you're talking about
"When you first got here, you lied to Ellie. Said you didn't know me." You remind him, "Why didn't you just tell her? Why haven't you told her?"
The same guilt and fear he felt when he first saw you months ago in the stables, wells up in his chest.
"I...I don't know." He says softly
Liar.
He knew what it was. Fear had kept him trapped for so many years. For so long, he'd let it strangle him. Even before losing Sarah, he'd felt that fear. That's why he let you go in the first place, Joel was scared of it all but most of all he was afraid, terrified even of falling in love with you.
And yet, here he sat twenty years later, sipping coffee next to you. He knew what he wanted, at least the thought he did.
Joel wanted to press a rewind button, to go back in time and do it all over again. To keep you and Sarah by his side, if he could just go back to August 2003 he swore he'd be able to make it all right again.
But, rewind buttons didn't exist and Sarah was gone, she wasn't coming back, but he still could right things with you, even if you didn't want him anymore. Besides, he knew he didn't deserve you in the first place.
Your soft voice fills his ears again, "You want to know what I think?"
"What?" Joel responds
"I think you're full of shit."
May 2024
You like the spring. Spring means you can stop wearing three different shirts out so you don't freeze. Spring means fresh vegetables in the community garden. Spring means sleeping with the window open at night.
Spring means... allergies? The loud sneeze of one of your patrol partners has you jumping in your saddle.
Apparently, in his old age, Joel Miller now has seasonal allergies.
"You're scaring off every single deer in a two-mile radius." You huff
"Sorry," Joel mumbles, wiping his nose on the back of his sleeve
"Y'should just head back, Joel. No good to us if you're sneezing every three minutes." Tommy says
"No, I'm fine. Besides aren't we teaching her how to hunt?" Joel asks, looking at you
"You can't teach me if you scare everything off." You point out
Tommy lets out a hum of laughter, "She's right."
"Let's keep moving," Joel grumbles
The past two months have been dull. After your conversation that night and then the next morning. Joel swore to himself that he'd make it up to you. Hell, he'd worship the ground you walked on if it meant you'd forgive him.
He didn't even want a second chance with you. He'd sworn it was all platonic when Tommy asked him one day.
Now, he was spending time with both you and his brother, trying to teach you to hunt. Key word trying. He'd probably never tell you but you weren't very good at hunting. This was the third trip he'd made with you and Tommy and Joel swore you were getting worse.
"It's hot today," Tommy notes as the horses plod along
"Summer's less than a month away." You point out
"What I wouldn't give to walk into an air-conditioned home. " Tommy grumbles
"Tell me about it." You sigh
Joel stays quiet as he listens to you and his brother recount the things you both missed. You'd been holding him at arm's length, after that morning on his porch. He'd screwed up, he knew that.
Why the hell did he say he didn't know? He did know! Why couldn't he just admit it to you?
He'd tried to show you through actions, how much he cared for you. Hunted down a better coat for you, fixed your kitchen cabinets, and ate whatever food you dropped off at the house for him and Ellie.
Evidently, you didn't want action, you wanted him to man up and admit it out loud. And, Joel wanted to. He wanted to tell you his fears, why he did what he did back in 2003 and then again in the stables back in December. Yet, every time he'd tried to he'd clammed up and backed down.
"Let's take a break. There's a nice lake up there, Needa sit in the shade, n' cool off." Tommy says suddenly
Joel glanced over to look at his younger brother, who had sweat pouring off him, wetting the back of his shirt. The younger Miller hops off his horse and ties it off before slumping down in the shade of a big oak tree.
"Feels like I'm back in Texas or somethin'" Tommy grumbles
"Oh please, back in Texas it was hot enough to cook an egg on the driveway. This is hardly like that." You laugh
"Speak for yourself, I think I'm sunburned." He says
"You poor little thing." You mockingly coo as you sit beside his brother under the tree
Joel jumps off his own horse, listening to the way the two of you blend together so effortlessly.
"Shut up." Tommy scoffs, shoving your shoulder, "Wasn't askin' you."
Joel feels jealousy swirl in his chest. He wants to be the one laughing with you, not Tommy.
"I'm going for a swim. We can hunt once I'm not sweating buckets." Tommy suddenly decides
Joel finds his way under the tree as Tommy straightens up to pull at his clothes.
"Ugh, put it away!" You mock, covering your eyes as Tommy strips down to his boxers, "The horror!"
"I'll have you know, back in the day girls used to line up to get a view of this." Tommy throws over his shoulder as he walks towards the lake
"Does that mean I get to tell Maria she married the town bike of Austin?"
Tommy doesn't respond but instead walks off and wades quickly into the water.
"You don't want to swim?" Joel asks, taking note of how your skin glistens with sweat.
You shake your head, "I'm fine. You're welcome to, though."
You and Joel sit in silent as he thinks of what to say next. Without Ellie, there's a gap in conversation, the kid was always ready to blab about something.
"You think you could come by my place tonight? Ellie's learning Algebra." He asks, "I try to help but I haven't done anything like it in forty-something years."
"I can try. Can't say I'll be much help though." You say
"You're the one with the fancy college education." Joel shrugs
"I'd like to remind you I never got my degree. Not to mention, It's been twenty years, I'm 44, not 24." You shake your head
"Right..."
Joel forgets that sometimes. You're older now. He knows you're different now, that school is no longer the top priority in your mind. Still, he likes to reminisce about the past when you were still a college kid, drowning in books and shitty professors.
A stale breeze blows through the air, and Joel feels like his clothes are suffocating him. How you're in jeans and a long sleeve is mind-boggling.
"I'm gonna go cool off. Feel like I'm about to pass out." Joel says, pulling his boots off
"M'kay." You nod, "Don't let Tommy drown you in there."
"What?"
"Once I came out here with him and Maria, and as a joke he tackled her, and nearly killed her since he caught her off guard." You shrug
"He tried to drown his wife?" Joel asked
"Well this was when he was still trying to win her over to even date him, but yeah."
"Bet she loved that," Joel smirks
"Yup, wouldn't talk to him for three days."
You feel hot, and no, it's not from the sun. Joel Miller is about 10 feet away, stripping down to his underwear to go for a swim. If there was a god, why was he torturing you like this?
Your eyes roam Joel's back which had been exposed to your greedy eyes. It was the first time you'd seen his body since 2003, of course, you were curious.
Muscle strains under the skin and your eyes greedily drink in the splatter of chest hair that litters his skin. Said trail of hair leads down down down to the band of his boxers. Much to your delight, Joel's stomach had seemingly softened even more with age.
God, you loved dad bods.
"Take a picture!" Tommy called from the shallow water at the edge of the lake
You flash your middle finger at the more annoying Miller. God, you hoped a fish would bite his ass while he was in there.
You flop back into the grass and stare up at the oak tree and the way the sun peaks through its branches. You weren't going to check Joel out anymore, nope, you were done with that.
"You sure you don't wanna come? Tommy and I'll cover our eyes, won't peak, I swear." Joel asks from your right
"M'fine. Go swim, Joel" You say softly dismissing him
Once he's gone, you rummage through your bag and pull out a bag of trail mix. You chew slowly, thinking of Joel's words as you do.
"Take some deep breaths as you chew. Think about what you're eatin'."
He'd slowly been coaching you through fixing your eating problems. For the most part, it worked well. It also helped that you ate dinner with him and Ellie most nights.
It'd been Ellie's decision, she kept inviting you over or just showing up at your front porch. So, now the three of you just ate together, apparently you're now Ellie's savior as well since Joel's cooking hasn't improved much over the years.
Guess some things don't change.
Tommy watches as Joel slowly approaches him in the water.
"No tackling. My back won't survive it." Joel sternly says
"I'm not 9 anymore, Joel. Why would I tackle you?" Tommy scoffs
"Heard what you did to Maria. Not takin' any chances here." Joel sternly says, giving Tommy the 'I'm older than you, you better listen' look that Tommy had seen at least a million times since he was a kid.
"That was a one-time thing!" Tommy jumps to defend himself
He couldn't believe you even remembered that let alone told Joel.
"She's burning up over there." Joel starts, "Refusing to get in here as well. I told her we wouldn't look but she's just laying up there sweatin' her ass off."
"She never swims." Tommy explains, "Been here probably twenty-thirty times with her and Maria over the years, not once has she decided to get in with us. Think the closest she got was to dip her feet in."
"Did you tackle her too?" Joel asks, his voice full of accusation.
"No." Tommy scoffs, how could Joel think such a thing.
"Just don't want her passing out from heat stroke." Joel frets, "Maybe I could wet some cloth, get her to put it over her neck."
A bit of water laps up into Tommy's face and he rubs at his eyes. Joel had a right to know, right?
"She's got scars, Joel." He cuts his brothers rambling off, "Haven't seen em' myself but Maria says she's covered in them, head to toe."
Joel's quiet beside Tommy now, the sound of sloshing water is the only noise between the two brothers.
"Oh..." Joel's voice softly comes from Tommy's left
The loud shout of their names has both brothers turning back to the shore. You're waving your arms about, holding the small radio Tommy had tucked into his boot before going for a swim.
"It's the baby!"
Joel has never seen his brother so frantic. Even when Sarah had died, Tommy had been composed, swallowing his feelings and trying to keep Joel together as they drifted around the country.
Now, his little brother is jumping off his horse and sprinting to the clinic, to his wife. It's endearing the way he cares for her, even if she hated Joel, he could tell she loved Tommy.
Joel grasps the reigns of Tommy's horse and follows you back to the stables.
"You think she'll be okay?" You ask breathily
Joel looks at you, he can tell you're nervous for Maria.
"I'm sure she'll be alright. Seems strong, not to mention the clinic doctor is skilled, she's in good hands." Joel says
You nod and lead Pepper into her stall.
"Sorry about the hunting. I don't know where the sneezing is coming from." Joel says, feeling guilty he ruined the day
"It's fine. I've never caught anything bigger than a rabbit." You wave him off
That night Joel watches as you hover over Ellie who's been sweating over a problem that apparently used the Quadratic Equation. What that was, Joel wasn't quite sure.
"This is fucking impossible..." Ellie grumbles
"Don't drop any negatives." You advise, sipping at your mug of coffee.
Joel normally hoarded the stuff but you were so damn easy to say yes to. So of course when you asked him if he could brew you a cup of his precious drink, he'd caved. Hell, you could ask him to steal half the food in Jackson and he'd do it if it meant you'd smile and bat your eyelashes at him.
"Motherfucking piece of shit..." Ellie whispers
You kick her chair, "Langauge. What's that baby going to think when you curse at it?"
"I'm pretty sure it's going to spend most of it's time shitting and sleeping so I think I'm in the clear." Ellie points out
"So just like you then?" Joel asks
Ellie lets out a scoff at his bad joke.
"Just do your math." You roll your eyes, standing up to cross the room where Joel stands over the sink, doing the dishes from dinner.
"How long does labor take?" You ask him.
Joel's brain is a bit fuzzy as he tries to remember how long it took Sarah to be born.
"I think it's different with everyone. Maria could have that kid tonight, or we might be waiting until tomorrow." Joel says
Sarah had taken what 11, 12 hours? All he remembers is that her mother had broken nearly every bone in his hand when she was pushing. At the end of it all though, his daughter had come out perfect.
"Jesus..." You sigh, "That's...insane."
"It'll all be okay," Joel assures you, he can tell you're worried. Not that he can blame you, from what he can tell Maria seems to be your only friend here in Jackson.
"I know." You sigh
Joel looks at the way your nerves and anxiety have settled into your pretty features. They line your face and make you look tired.
"Hey, Ellie,"
The teen looks up from her math, welcoming the distraction.
"Wanna watch a movie with us?" He asks
Joel has to cover his laugh with a cough when you screech out in shock. Only you'd react to a simple statement like this...
"You've never seen Gladiator?!"
"No...Born after the world ended, remember?" Ellie scoffs
"But still! Joel's had this DVD just sitting here in this house and you've never watched it?" You ask
"No..."Ellie trails off as she kicks her feet up on the coffee table from her spot in the recliner
"You've done a terrible job, watching over her." You judge him
"Right, cuz getting her from Boston to Wyoming in one piece without dyin' is so terrible," Joel says
"It is if she hasn't seen Gladiator." You say, popping the disc into the player while Joel shakes his head.
Joel watches from his spot beside you on the couch as you absorb the movie, answering Ellie's questions when she asks. He smiles to himself as you happily explain what's happening on the screen. You always loved movie nights.
"Oh gross! He's totally into his sister!" Ellie points at the screen to Commodus and Lucilla.
"Sick fuck." You declare and nudge Joel who nods in agreement
There is only one couch cushion between you and him but it might as well be the size of the Grand Canyon. Joel's fingers itch to reach out and pull you into his side. He wants to watch this movie the way you used to watch movies with him.
He wants your head resting on his chest as the movie plays so he can play with your hair while you take in the flashing screen. Joel wants to smell the soft scent of your body wash as you lay so close to him that you're both practically mushing into one being.
As the credits begin to roll, You let out a yawn while Ellie rates the movie a 10/10.
"Too bad there won't ever be another." She sighs, "We could totally have a movie on Lucilla's kid."
"Right?" You agree looking at him, "Joel could totally play a part in it too."
"Excuse me?" Joel asks, baffled at the idea. He was no movie star.
"Yeah, you got that Roman nose. You could play some hot general or something." You shrug gesturing to his face.
Joel shakes his head in disagreement yet all he can focus on is that you indirectly just called him hot.
"You're loosin' it. I'm not fit enough to play a gladiator." He says, thinking of Russell Crowe's perfectly toned physique. Joel's body had gone soft with age, muscle hidden under soft flesh, he was no early 2000s heartthrob.
"That's why she said general." Ellie points out
"A hot one." You add for the second time
"Yeah yeah, Hot General Joel. I'll start my workout tomorrow." He sighs looking at You and Ellie you are both smiling at him. Warmth spreads across his chest, When was the last time he felt like this?
"Alright, time for bed. Ellie go brush your teeth." Joel says nodding to the steps
For once in her life, she goes off without objecting. Joel doesn't miss the way she mouths "Kiss her!" to him from behind your back. His face heats up in embarrassment, that damn kid was going to be the death of him one day.
"I should get going. I wanna go down to the clinic early tomorrow to check on Maria." You say, standing up and stretching, "Have a good night, General."
Joel nods, rising to his own feet. He thanks you for helping Ellie with whatever that math was. You give him a warm smile and then go to grab your shoes.
Joel might be half deaf but anyone could've heard the commotion outside. You jump when the loud slam of fists sounds when someone begins knocking on the door like the world is ending.
"Joel!" A loud voice calls
Joel whips the door open to reveal Brett. A young guy who was supposed to be ontop of the wall tonight until 3am.
"What? What happened?" Joel asks worry fills his system, what could be happening? Was there a breach in the wall? Infected? What was the best place he could hide you and Ellie?
"Got a situation. Tommy said a few days ago that you'd be in charge of shit like this if he and Maria were unavailable." Brett says
"What about the council? They're above me." Joel says he doesn't want any part of whatever is happening.
"There's people Joel. Night patrol picked them up and brought em' in." Brett explains, "Could you just come take a look? Tommy said you got a good head for stuff like this."
"A good head for what?" Joel asks, doubtingly
"A good head for people," Brett says
Joel follows Brett towards the gates of Jackson. You trail behind him, Ellie a few paces behind you. He had demanded you stay back but of course your stubborn self followed him and Ellie right after you.
"How many?" Joel asks as Brett leads
"Two. One man, one woman." Brett says
"And they're clean?" Joel asks, thinking of how horrible it might get if they were infected.
"The dog let them right through, even licked the woman a few times." Brett responds
Joel nods and his eyes land on a group of Jackson's people, surrounding the newcomers. Some of them have guns out at least.
"Who was on patrol? I thought we weren't letting people in at night?" Joel asks
Brett lists off a few names. Fuzzy faces come into Joel's mind. Every single person on patrol tonight had to be under 25. Young and dumb. Too trusting for this world.
Joel takes a gun from a man he recognizes as Louis and motions for you and Ellie to hang back behind him and Brett.
The people in front of him look helpless. The woman is alarmingly skinny, perhaps it's the old dress she's wearing but she looks horribly malnourished. Joel honestly can't tell if she's even alive. Unconscious and slumped in the dirt, she looks like a corpse. The man looked a bit better, although it could just be his clothes hiding how skinny he was. He stands up when Joel looks at him, desperation in his eyes.
"Names," Joel says, his voice gruffer than it'd been in months.
"Please, we need food and water. It's been days." The man begs
"Names." Joel says again, "Where are you coming from?"
"Please..." The man begs again, "We don't mean any harm. We're both clean, that dog proved it before we entered!"
Joel hears Brett whispering behind him and before he can stop you, you brush past him, partially blocking the view of this stranger.
"I know his name."
Your voice is shaky, a tone Joel's never heard before takes over your vocal chords. Joel looks at the man whose eyes are on you now. A glint of recognition flashes across his face and even in the dark, illuminated by Jackson's streetlights, Joel can see his skin pale. You speak again, your voice barely a whisper in the dark as you stare at this man.
"Adam."
Next Part
I wrote a little Christmas imagine for Joel. It's not connected to this series but if you're interested, you can check it out right here.
And so I return with another chapter. I meant to write this sooner, I just got lazy and have been spending more time sleeping since the Fall Semester sucked my soul out of my body.
Comment to be added to the tag list. This tag list is not chapter by chapter, I carry the tags over to each part.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
please clic for larger images, tumblr compression made these look all blurry. id below the cut
here i am still making mp100 comics in april of 2024. its just such comfort food. im highly normal about mob and tomes friendship
ID: three pages of black and white comics about Mob and Tome from the anime Mob Psycho 100.
panel 1: a leg and an arm extend from out of panel so that the hand on the arm can tie the shoe on the leg. lying on the ground is the other shoe, a cell phone, a keyring, and a polka dot carrying case. on the carrying case rests a sphere with a strange pattern on it. in the top right it says "January."
panel 2: a figure (its tome) pulls on a jacket. visible in front of her are a cabinet and a wall-mounted rack, all messy.
panel 3: with a door in the background, a closeup of tomes hand on her flipphone. the screen says "dialing."
panel 4: tome shrugs on her jacket and, holding her phone against her ear with her shoulder, smiles and says, "Oy, Mob! It's Saturday! Let's go telepath-hunting!"
panel 5: ritsu and mob sit on a blanket on the floor in front of a bookshelf. a little "pause" label extends from off-panel. both of them are holding controllers. ritsu leans against his hand, looking bored, as mob holds his cellphone to say "Hi Tome. Didn't we already find a telepath?" tome responds, "Oh, right."
panel 6: tome and mob dont really know what to say next. they both look cartoony and stupid. "..."
panel 7: tome, looking pained, curls a hand in the air in front of her and says, "Do you want to... walk around the city? Pointlessly?" mob says, "Sure, I guess that's what we normally do."
panel 8: tome looks mad. "No! We walk pointedly! In the direction of telepaths!" she points, pointedly. mobs eyebrows go a little down as he scratches at his face. "It's pretty funny that you were looking for so long when Takenaka was right next to you. For months. And then he left because you were too weird."
panel 9: tome, opening her front door, says, "Y'know what, Mob, maybe I'll invite him instead." Mob says "That's a good idea. Let's see if he can come with us."
panel 10: now exiting onto the walkway in front of her apartment, tome says, looking excited, "Actually I have been investigating something new. We should look for a haunted house!" mob thinks to himself, "Sounds like work..."
panel 11: mob looks skeptical and asks, "In the city?" tome responds, "Yep." behind mob, ritsu unpauses the game (ssb brawl) and starts thrashing mob (ritsu mains lucas, mob mains kirby)
panel 12: tome walks down the stairs of her apartment building to a concrete sidewalk with a row of trashcans nearby. she says, "My first guess is that new shaved ice place on 5th street." mob responds, "Oh." tome says "It's an old building! I think it's haunted!"
panel 13: mob, contented, says, "Okay. I'll meet you at the train station." pleased, tome responds, "Excellent!" ritsu looks back at mob with a mean smile on. the tv screen says "GAME!"
panel 14: mob yells, "Ritsu! What the heck!" tome, at a stoplight, replies, "Sure, he can come too." she presses the walk signal button. "BIP."
End ID.
making this comic i learned that you cant just put masking tape over your mistakes and re-ink on top of it bc the masking tape looks too dark when its scanned in. i guess ill just have to warm up more and be more deliberate when i ink like some kinda loser. or i could become truly insane and start gluing on little pieces of bristol

End of Year PSA and Thank You
As 2024 comes to a close, and I know it's NYE in some parts of the world already, I wanted to talk about a few things:
Privacy PSA
i just want to say that yesterday is everything I hate about this fandom. It was disgusting and unacceptable behavior. Period. No argument. It is not alright to go on private spaces and share information to the whole world WITHOUT PEOPLE'S CONSENT. And what did you prove?? NOTHING!! Except that you're a shitty person who likes to invade people's privacy... Karma comes back to bite people, remember that.
No wonder L hardly shares ANYTHING anymore. I'm honestly shocked L OR N even have public SM accounts anymore after the BS of this year tbh. WE COLLECTIVELY NEED TO DO BETTER AND GIVE THESE PEOPLE SPACE AND PRIVACY. Focus on what they publicly share, and eventually we will publicly have answers.... Do not go on a witch hunt to try and "prove" your point, THAT YOU CAN'T EVEN PROVE!
The events of yesterday is another big reason I haven't been posting as much. This fandom has just turned SOOOO toxic, and honestly, I could write a whole psychology dissertation on why that is... but y'know what, it has almost NOTHING to do with L or N. But people are dumping ALL this stuff on them, and still claiming to be their "fans". L/N is what brought all of us together. And with the state of the world, I think there is something truly positive about the energy L/N put out there when they are with each other that really resonates with a lot of people and makes them happy and more hopeful. But L/N are their own people, and we'll get confirmation at some point about the big things in their lives. We can't force it, even if we're feeling frustrated at times.
So as the year comes to a close, let's think about the following... If you call yourselves fans of L and N, think about the energy you want to put out in the fandom, and think about how you would want to be treated if you were in L or N's position (or their family members' positions). And if you're just around to create chaos or shit on people, it's time to do some internal processing of your past and go to therapy and heal.
Now, on to the more positive part of this post...
2. Thank You to All My Followers
I want to say I am truly grateful to all my followers on here! I have over 1,300 followers atp, and I barely post anything anymore 😅 I was going through my own stuff earlier this year when I stumbled upon the Lukola magic in May, and then I was just hooked. I decided to start the blog because I had a LOT of things I wanted to talk about regarding these two. And although there is a lot about this fandom I really don't care for, I have met some amazing people on here through our mutual interest in L/N, have had some amazing conversations, and this whole experience has had a significant impact on me. I will always remember this year as the year of Lukola lol
As we move into 2025, I likely will not be posting as much until we get more substantial information related to L/N. I'll still post when I'm able though, and my Asks are always open ❤️️
Wishing everyone a happy New Year!! 🥂

Leaving aside possible reversals, disasters, doom & gloom, can we take a moment to savor the Trump meltdown over Harris/Walz and the momentum that makes a possible blue tsunami seem an entirely plausible outcome? I'd love to give you the space to ramble about it if you'd like, as my current fandom at least for the moment has shifted back to US politics (but not, for the first time in a while, to doom scrolling politics!).
Aha, I feel as I have probably already said most of my current thoughts, but here are a few things that really make me desire a heaping helping of butt-whooping blue wave in November:
The state that has had the most volunteer sign-ups since Harris took over the ticket? Fucking Florida, with over 18,000. The Villages, formerly a hotbed of Trump support (and y'know, probably still is), also had a major pro-Kamala event, and she is allegedly up 15 points in Miami-Dade (after Biden won the county by 7% and lost the state only by 3%). Now, we all know that Obama won Florida twice, but it has become such a symbol of retrograde Trumpian/DeSantisian politics that winning there would be literally seismic. I'm not going so far as saying that it's in PLAY play, but let's just hold onto that happy, happy idea.
Likewise the poll I mentioned the other day, where Trump is struggling to break 50% in Ohio, once a swing state and now also reliably red. The fact that this is Vance's home state and he's dragging the ticket down every single time he opens his mouth, thus offering the smallest sliver of hope that Ohio (which DID legalize abortion and weed by major margins last year) could also go blue? Incredible. Amazing. Showstopping.
Harris is also tied with Trump (46%-46%) in North Carolina and there is a lot of chatter about how the terrible GOP governor candidate could give a boost to Democratic turnout statewide.
The Mormons have apparently announced their intention to abandon (or at least support much less than they usually do) the Republican presidential ticket in 2024. Remember when Obama won Indiana in 2008? In my wildest dreams, I imagine Utah going blue in 2024. It won't but shh.
Basically, where we were braced for another agonizing nail-biting grind-it-out three-day election determined by a few thousand votes in key states (because etc etc the Electoral College sucks) we are now looking at the very real possibility that Harris wins at least one state, and possibly more, that Biden didn't, and which have been seen as out of reach for Democrats since Trump came on the scene. I don't think I need to counsel anyone against complacency, because we're all too damn scared for that, but yeah. Polls, even the good-looking ones that we like, don't vote. They are still skewed and subjective and do not represent the actual reality, whatever that may end up being. The Republicans and the media will be trying their absolute goddamnfuckingest to ratfuck us again in the 80-something days that remain, but:
WE CAN DO THIS, WE WILL DO THIS, WE MUST DO THIS.
WHAT IS THIS.... JOY SCROLLING? FOR AMERICAN POLITICS? IN THE YEAR 2024 WITH DONALD TRUMP ON THE TICKET FOR THE FUCKING THIRD TIME?
UNPOSSIBLE.

Hi, how are you? If it's not too much trouble, could I ask for some jealous Tighnari headcanons? please and thank you <33
౨ৎ "is everything alright, dear?"
Tumblr media
send a request!┊masterlist┊taglist applications
FEAT... tighnari
SYNOPSIS... someone hits on you, how will he react?
A/N... hi anon, thanks so much for the request! i'm doing good tyyy, i hope you are too ^^ i sorta got carried away writing this, nd it ended up to be more of "someone hits on you" than jealousy hcs... i hope it's still enjoyable though and i apologise that it isn't reallyyy what you asked for ♡
Tumblr media
♪ your boyfriend, tighnari, watches from afar as you engage in idle chit-chat with your fellow scholars, resisting the burning desire to pull you away from them all and keep you in his little world, in which you are the earth and he is the moon.
♪ he often tells you how his life revolves around you, how he sees you wherever he goes whether you're actually there or not, and it never fails to fluster you. of course, you tell him how yours revolves around him also, calming his anxieties as he relishes in your words.
♪ that being said, the second someone tries hitting on you, he loses it. yes, tighnari is a big softie at heart, but being a forest ranger means he has some level of authority, and he will use this to his advantage when confronting your pursuer. you were his after all, and he was equally yours.
♪ this isn't the first time someone has approached you, looking you up and down with wide eyes and shooting a smile in your direction. of course, you send one back their way, but only to be polite, not to evoke further flirting. this is where tighnari steps in.
♪ the soft tickle of his tail brings a wave of relief as your step back into his touch, your pounding heart settling at the sound of his voice
"is everything alright, dear?"
♪ it's rare that he uses pet names with you, and so you blush slightly as the endearment slips from his lips.
"y'know this guy?"
"well, this language is rather improper. what, are you trying to scare them off?"
♪ he scoffs, taking the liberty to step in front of you and hover a hand above your torso, all while holding firm eye contact with his 'opponent'.
"excuse us, my partner and i have places to be"
♪ your not-at-all-secret admirer is left dumbfounded as tighnari takes your hand in his, hastily leading you away from the hustle and bustle. the two of you swerve to the right into a quiet corridor where he takes a moment to check you over.
"are you alright?"
♪ you assure him you're unhurt, both mentally and physically, before thanking him for intervening; planting a loving kiss on the corner of his mouth and another on the tip of his nose.
♪ only when he's fully convinced that you're unscathed do the two of you head for the exit, leaving the leftover errands for tomorrow after the unexpected turn of events.
♪ even after you arrive home, tighnari refuses to let you out of his sight, whining whenever you pull away from him or leave to grab a glass of water (stay hydrated!)
"i'll only be a minute"
"that's what you said earlier, then that idiot came and harassed you!"
"he wasn't harassing me, love. archons, 'this language is rather improper'-"
smack!
♪ the plush of a cushion collides with your cheek, interrupting your teasing as tighnari scurries away; whether it was out of fear or playfulness you will never know.
♪ either way, the two of you spend the rest of the evening chasing after each other, starting with 2 plump pillows and ending with empty cases, your hair tangled and covered in fluff and feathers.
♪ it's almost comical how something that was so serious in the moment becomes somewhat of a joke, but that's just the way your relationship works, and as long as he knows you're alright, tighnari thinks it's just fine...

AUTUMN DIRECTORY, 2024. (KINKTOBER)
Tumblr media
ORANGE BEGINS TO TRICKLE IN, meaning it's time for newfound romance and horrors written in blood. this index contains upcoming pieces—everything from oneshots, headcanons, blurbs—and instructions for autumntime requests! quite similar to kinktober, but this isn't limited to kinks, is open to requests, and is not restricted to a daily schedule (because that would be hell).
REQUESTING RULES:
I. see rules here for general, annual information that still applies. fluff, smut, angst and horror is allowed. only writing for tlou characters. II. to be within the autumn realm, requests must (obviously) be related to festivites, occurences, or genres entailed under fall. this encapsulates october and november; halloween and family gatherings—but is not limited to those. (e.g something like a date in a leaf-scattered park, intimacy in a carinval, or mundane settings such as a college campus, count.) III. halloween requests can be directly related to the celebration, or complete deviations into horror. i have a horror oneshot cooking up at the minute (quite a few, technically), so most requests will be written into blurbs or drabbles. mythological creatures, murderers, folk legends, and movie-inspired dynamics are some ideas. but some of you are very creative, so please, do bend and amalgamate tropes to your heart's desire! (e.g a posessed, ballerina murderess would be fucking insane—in the best way possible.) IV. you can still send requests for kinktober, but this is just here to announce that i'm taking anything autumn-related. multiple versions are allowed for different kinks (e.g sub!reader, dom!reader, would count as seperate versions). also, do be wary that i won't write every kink, especially if it violates my rules.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
LIST OF FICTION TO COME:
𝐧𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞 | vampire!reader x hunter!ellie [predator and prey dynamic, can you guess which is which?]
information: chances are, if you're an old reader of mine, you've seen this draft announced here and there a year ago—it has gone through metamorphosis. now, it has a predator and prey storyline to it. probably the only kink related oneshot, but it is not tied down to that. it explores a serious, horrific, non-sexual side of it, and gradiates into something more sexual. (using time skips)
𝐟𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐬 | jackson!reader x jackson!ellie [a request from one of my lovely anons. congratulations, it's a oneshot!]
information: this is where fluff, and romance, will nestle in a hearth setting. one of my anons requested a fic where ellie and reader cook dinner for joel and a special lady friend (yay for side charecter romance), ellie totally disgusted by the fact that joel has a supposed girlfriend now. (in a weirded-out, daughter type of way, y'know?) also ellie cannot cook for shit.
𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐬 | jackson halloween party, gone wrong! [title is a double entendre, you'll see why.]
information: so. funny little title. basically i just wanted to write something about a jackson halloween party, how it would go, what everyone would wear, who would be making out in the bathroom of whatever building it happens in—oh and some murder. it isn't a party in october if nobody dies, so.. yeah. (ellie and reader totally aren't the ones making out and getting freaky while someone gets killed. definitely not. heh.) this one will probably have comedic undertones to it. love us a good comedic fic, honestly.
(let me know if you want to be tagged for any of these)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
SHORT WORKS:
every request for this directory will go here. check later!

HGSN 32-2
Chapter (Japanese)
(Please hit the green thumbs up at the end of the Japanese chapter to show support)
Rough translation by me
P1
(sfx: step step step)
(sfx: thump)
(sfx: clatter)
Tanaka: Whew
P2
(sfx: clatter)
Asako: ...There's a "hole" inside there?
Tanaka: That's right. At least on this side, there is.
Asako: (This guy is really...way too suspicious...)
Asako: (And consider what he said just a while ago...)
--
Asako: Huh!? Who are you!?
Asako: A- a criminal!?
Tanaka: ....
P3
Asako: Aww, it's so cute!!
Asako: Wait, uh, um, Is there something in this house? Do you know something, mister?
Tanaka: There's a "hole". It's where a ton of impurities are coming out from.
Asako: A hole...
(Grandma: So from time to time, a little distortion causes people and things from the other side to cross over...)
Asako: That's... What are you going to do about it? It's definitely bad to leave it alone...
P4
Asako: If...If you're going to do something about it
Asako: I'll help
Tanaka: Well, sure
Tanaka: Then please die
Asako: Huh?....
Tanaka: The real form of the hole isn't here. It can only be reached from the world of the impurities.
Tanaka: So someone has to go to the other side. Will you go?
P5
Asako: That's....
Asako: (For all that I keep sticking my nose into things, I'm never prepared to see things through...)
Asako: (I wonder...Does Yoshiki have that resolve?...)
Asako: (After Hikaru died, he was all alone...facing it without telling anyone)
Asako: (Now that I think about it, what's with him? ...Oh, it still makes me a bit mad...!)
Tanaka: Haha...I'm joking
Tanaka: Kids should go home and watch YTube or something...
Asako: I'll go!
P6
Asako: That's the kind of thing I came here prepared to do! ...Not doing anything despite being able to "hear" them is worse...!
Tanaka: ...
Tanaka: How much can you "hear"?
--
Asako: (...but what are we going to do?)
Asako: (This guy sucks at explaining things)
Asako: What's this stuff you plugged in my ears?
Asako: It's...
Tanaka: Ah, please don't take that out
P7
Tanaka: Y'know, for all that you might be able to hear them, you really don't know a damn thing about the impurities. At this rate, someday you're going to slip up and die.
Tanaka: It's all very well for you to help with closing the hole, but like that, you're a bit unreliable
Asako: ...I guess that's true...
Tanaka: So...well...
(sfx: scratches head)
Tanaka: They say, "first, start by knowing who you're dealing with"
P8
(sfx: running)
Rie: Maki-kun isn't answering the phone...
(sfx: door opens)
Rie: It's unlocked
Rie: Augh, I'm just going to go in!
(sfx: thump thump thump)
Rie: Maki-kun!
(sfx: door opens)
P9
Maki: (snores)
Rie: He's sleeping...
P10
Rie: So closing the hole is easy, so easy that it can be done with needle and thread
Rie: But, "the hole can only be closed from the other side"
Rie: For a human, going to the other side would mean death...
Rie: But if it was you, 'Hikaru'-kun, you could go to the other side...do I have all that right?
Hikaru: Yep. I don't have a soul after all, I think I'd be fine even on the other side
Yoshiki: ...But the problem is, how are you going to come back?
Hikaru: With...guts?
Yoshiki: ......
Maki: (groans)
==
Next chapter: 2024/12/17
Twitter Extra (link):
Asako buys clothes at Mion.
She has more interest in fashion than Yuuki does.
Asako: This will look good on you!
Yuuki: As long as it's easy to move in, anything's fine

2023 Art Purge
Original edition! Ended up having to split the doodles into two parts, I didn’t mean to end up with so many left over but oops - onto the commentary!
Tumblr media
Remember crayon Edgar? I drew this one at the same time! Loosely based off Circus Baby but really just more of a general cutesy look - layering with colours is fun :)
Tumblr media
Eyes, every year. Two general eyes, and two characters! Bottom left is Souichi, and bottom right is Vivian :) Vivian always gets a spare eye haha
Tumblr media
Some concept art for a false backpack I still kinda wanna make - it’d be a prop for a game I made earlier this year, as the prize container! It’s meant to be kind of like a pop-up shop that can fold away fairly small and hold a bunch of small items safely and inconspicuously, though it wouldn’t actually work as a real backpack lol
Tumblr media
Some Cherubsona concept art, thinking about their hair and the light rays - I considered having a single asymmetrical hair tuft, I think while I was still on the fence about having asymmetrical wings as well - I’m happy with the final design :)
Tumblr media
And some baby angels! Based on my DQIX/AGE headcanons/actual canon lol, took a few tries to get a design I was happy with before settling on the bottom-most one with the fuzzed ears, lolling about haha. Cute!
Tumblr media
Also thinking about “Fallen” designs, since my cherubsona is meant to be a fallen angel - or even just biblically accurate angels! Maybe they became more normal-looking after falling haha
Tumblr media
More Charm doodles based on the Hungry idea - neither Frankenstein nor Zombies were quite what I was looking for, but they were close! Poor Charm, even if it is a Look
Tumblr media
More eyes! Concept sketches of the Yanderapy boys :D Mitsu’s swirls and Ishida’s sleepy ♥ eye expression haha
Tumblr media
An alternate panel of Mitsu being shy to admit his love language haha, I wanted his expression to be a little more visible but him hiding in the book is also very cute haha
Tumblr media
Little doodle of Ishida singing Daisy Bell! He’s half-crazy all for the love of Mitsu after all
Tumblr media
Technically these are from later in the year but I was really hoping to have the set up for a silly concept rolling - Ishida wants to play a game! The game would allow each of them to take a turn, with the goal of the game to be to sneak a gift into the other’s bag or pocket when he’s not looking. A cute and silly and fun concept to reverse pick-pocket the other and give a little treat! Totally harmless and not at all strange or weird or with any kind of underlying sinister vibes!
Tumblr media
The punchline of course was that since they’re both yanderes that it basically turns into stalking each other, which as featured here, Mitsu is very into, who could have guess lol. The double punchline is that they’re both so aware of/obsessed with each other that they notice each other right away, but play along because it’s obvious that they’re both enjoying it haha It’s yandere enrichment! Ishida would also get a real rush from “hunting” Mitsu, as would Mitsu enjoy being “hunted” - yet more twisted love languages ♥
Tumblr media
Random deer :) Actually one of the animals I considered for Dahlia early on but decided to scrap, because I don’t know how to draw deer lol
Tumblr media
Also went through a couple scrapped designs for her artist friend, just to make sure I explored all my options thoroughly! I’m glad I did, but I’m happiest with the one I decided on, of course
Tumblr media
Brief Dahlia and Tala meeting. They’re unsure of each other! Squirrels and dogs don’t have the best track record admittedly
Tumblr media
Bit of vent :( Bar’s always good for it ♥
Tumblr media
Bucket! :D Been a bit since I drew anyone from that cast, though I somehow made him on-model by accident lol, and of course he’s still cute! That’s the important part really
Tumblr media
Eyesssssssss <3 <3 On the left were some quick comparisons between dot/filled-in eyes and eyes with a differentiated pupil and iris, since I’ve been defaulting to dark eyes a lot lately (it’s the Vargas influence lol); and on the right were a bunch of Cure eyes! I think at least partially studied off of some character creators? Lots of eye styles to choose from, which one suits her the best hmm. She has very sparkly eyes
Tumblr media
And another sort-of study off a character creator haha, it’s very cute! Not very Cure, though
Tumblr media
One of the early ideas that made me want to dig her out of storage was actually an animation idea that was maybe a liiiiiittle ambitious to go about making without her having a fixed design lol - I’ve always been a fan of magical girl transformations that completely glow-blot out the body and then they explode into frills and bows and fluff at the end haha. I would still like to come back to the idea at some point!
Tumblr media
Ended up with a good handful of muscle studies, even after the ones I already posted - a lot of the poses ended up silly haha
Tumblr media
And a lot of skull/face/neck studies as well, with mixed success :P
Tumblr media
I’ll get it figured out eventually!
Tumblr media
Sometimes it’s fun to just doodle around, shapes :) My own original human style feels so constantly in flux with the fanart I like to make and having so many non-human characters haha, probably doesn’t help that I prefer high stylism
Tumblr media
A trio! They look kinda familiar, hmmm....
Tumblr media
Yet more eyes lol, the first trying to figure shines. You can really see what a lack of editing does to the implied shapes pfft ♪
Tumblr media
Always trying to figure out how to dragons! Another one I’ll have to get to Someday. There’s gotta be a trick to them >:0
Tumblr media
Out of general studies and tests - hey I thought Just Desserts already had a sona??? And that she was like the most important and best and all that?? I got curious what my sona might be in the JD universe without being the villain haha, and I came up with a Chocolate-Chip Brioche Bun lad! :D I’ve always had something of an affinity for brioche, also somewhat inspired by Edgeworth’s cravat haha. But would Charm still exist and be wreaking havoc, or would this be the alternate universe Charm equivalent?? ‘Cause they’re definitely not “Charm”
Tumblr media
Speaking of Charm tho! She’s holding a tooth lol - something something, candy people mining teeth? Because cavities? I dunno lol, but she’s certainly not all that much bigger than a tooth so that’s some fun scale for you :)
Tumblr media
And finishing off with some cutesie little chibis :) I made the first as a reference for proportions, and the second to show how my holosona would look in that style haha, what a cute evil computer

Three years of madness inside the palace is over now.
Tumblr media
Howdy, happy new year everyone, I hope you're doing great today.
Welp, I just wanted to thank y'all for everything that you gave to me in 2024. It was a good times (and a bad times lol) so, I decided to do something for y'all for the love and happiness that you gave me, but first, let me tell you my story with this community.
Tumblr media
Ahem.
In 2021, I was doing, like nothing, just being here, in existence, feeling a little depressed because I had, suddenly and out of blue, my little brother came to me and said: :DUDE, DELTARUNE CHAPTER 2 GOT RELEASED" and I was "Really???!?!??!?!" I opened up YouTube, Typed DELTARUNE chapter 2 and... it really released, like Damn, I never expected that. Later on, I got it on my cousin's phone (his phone is Glitchy is hell) and managed to finish it with him, and it was AWSAOME, and I really enjoyed it and loved it.
In 2022, it was the year that "secret bosses" would be a thing, and the first one that I saw was Lumia. If I remember correctly, I liked them, but not that much, like, they look decent, but still, I still like them.
Then I saw the immortal hydrangea, i believe that immortal hydrangea was the thing that made me believe that the Ch3 secret boss is a flower thing (or a flowey-like fella), I personally loved the it so much.
I also saw Huecycles's deltarune chapter 3 and her secret boss, Halojack, I really loved it a lot. back in the day when I was believing that Mike would be the main antagonist of Chapter 3 (not in a toxic way, I kept that opinion to myself, not telling anyone about).
Zet's Deltarune take was also so cool, i was a big fan of Helal, Occazio, and Billy Chance.
Then I discovered one of the coolest aus that ever existed, DELTARUNE: CHAPTER REWRITTEN, by the amazing and talented Winterer, which we got bangers like BIG BANG and BATTLE AGAINST THE WORLD, and honestly I find it very amazing and well-made, till, Y'know, some terrible has happened, like, The Winterer leaving the au and some other sucky shit, I don't want to go on details, you got the picture.
2023 came, and with it, more and more cooler stuff, and I can't mention anything related to the community without talking about Local h00ligan's DELTARUNE Take that with it, and it bunch of cool guys, Brandal C, Screepto and Fakres, and boy did I loved them, yup, I did, they are so cool, I personally liked Brandal more.
We also got one of the coolest deltarune chapter 3-7 takes, Vision Crew's Deltarune, by the coolest R.V Pine (who has blocked me on Tumblr), we got goobers like Tenna, Anne, Camellia, Hycrisik, Mentle Keeper, and Gonner and they all are amazing.

This year also marked the birth of the monster that we all know as "Woody Theory" by Spookydood on YouTube, which also leads of the Birth of thousands of "Friend Inside Me" images.
Deltarune: The Chapter in Sans and Papyrus' House, Sockswald, and other things dropped this year
While scrolling in Twitter, I found L1zardart1stre, who helped with some ideas in Deltarune: TCISAPH like Commander Dash, Friendo, and others, I also liked her secret bosses, and she is one of my main inspirations.
Sonic Theory also came out this year, and I really loved it a lot.
One day, while scrolling in Twitter, I found something, a fanart by L1zardart1stre, for a cowgirl holding a gun, I didn't know who she was and who was the made her.
Now I know who...
Tapes, Flowery, Petaly, Rosey the Revenger, and others, they all look very awesome.
However, I wasn't that happy at all. In 2023, I was actually suffering with some sort of mental illness that made me feel miserable in late 2023, and my cope mechanism was to talk to someone, I got tumblr like from long but didn't use it at all, the first person I talked in tumblr was Creepa, then Bluetheartblog (he also blocked me lamo) then I tried to talk to Emihead and Axniety but they also blocked me (I don't blame them at all, tho) and Mercair, Petra, Glitch and Grimm, and others.
And was the end of my merciless DMing spree and my stroy with this community, now, let's move on to the thanking part (I didn't draw anything for some of you, sorry).

2024 Fanfiction Recommendations
I have read a lot of wonderful fics this year, and I wanted to personally highlight a few of my favorites that have been spinning in my head ever since I read them. Some are not written in this year, but I found this year that I fell in love with.
Writers - thank you for writing this wonderful pieces of art! I personally had a really rough year, so I turned to fics as a way to escape. For context, I am atwentyyeardarknight on AO3, so if you have seen a comment or kudos from that person, it is me!
All my love!
The series The Inbetweens by @appassaddle

Winds of Rebellion by an orphaned account
M / A:TLA/ The Gaang focused about Cranefish town.
The series Prasinos Hierax by @shiyahawk

M / 9-1-1 / A Tommy character study mixed with a romantic comedy mixed with a spoof of a horror movie...trust me. Read it.
The series Finding Our Way by @azaablue
G / A:TLA / The Gaang but focuses a lot on Aang. I cannot begin to explain my love of this series. The way she writes Aang is so delicious and sad I need more people to read these!!!
The Devil Doesn't Bargain & A Set of Empty Bones by @kinardsevan
E / 9-1-1 / Buck/Tommy focused. These stories are so incredibly depressing (I say that with total affection) and the way this writer tackles and handles these deeply sensitive topics is fantastic, kudos all around!
Prescribed Burn by @wakeupnew
T / 9-1-1 / Buck/Tommy. Set during the Madney wedding.. the way Tommy has to suffer through second hand information. It was all in all such a fun read.
Legacies by WildInkling
G / A:TLA / Zuko focused. A historian finds Zuko's journal and honestly this premise is a 10/10!!!
Delicate by @lantur
M / Fullmetal Alchemist / Riza focused that covers her life. SO SO SO SOOOOO Good. (slightly cheating here I read this last year but I did not do a fic roundup then but I wanted to give out flowers to you)
Memories in the Wind by @ ADCurtis
G / A:TLA / Aang POV. Y'know when you read something and then you finish and you just sit there and stare at a wall for a minute or so to process? That was me after reading this. Once again a story about Aang and grief..can't help myself LOL
A Little Slice by RadiantBeam
G / Justice League & Unlimited / Shayera/John. Set after the JL Infinity comic. An absolute joy to read full of pining and cake!!! (I also read this last year but wanted to include it here since I did not do a roundup last year)
