Oh wow, this is a fun one that I just got in one eye. It's still going on, but I think it may be starting to fade some.
Guessing this probably is a great new migraine aura thing, but jfc. At least I am not noticing any other signs of anything like a stroke. There are also no other signs of something wrong with vision, "just" that sudden strange floating pattern over top in that eye. It looks nothing like descriptions of what happens with a detached retina or anything else I ever heard of.
Yes, I got extra concerned at sudden weird vision shit after the previous fun with retinopathy leading up to those several months of being blind out of the other eye and then the surgery. My retinas are apparently looking stable enough at this point that I am back on the "regular" diabetic eye screening schedule, and actually just had another exam last month where they said everything was looking great.
Update: That has indeed mostly cleared up while I've been typing this. Guess i'll be on the lookout for impending migraines. 😒
One of the weirdest fucking things to happen in a long while, I gotta say.

Lineart to lineless art progress thingie (for funsies! and also bc im running out of things atm to put in queue lol). My fashion sense is very basic but i really like the left & right designs for Helene!
It's interesting to see how many details get lost/added in the process between lining things out/turning the lines to full color. Helene's face on the left loses the angle I was going for (OTL) and i fiddled with the anatomy a bit to make it better on the right
Wanted to make this as a glimpse at what a modern AU!version of Helene would look like (and im really hoping to see her on Earth and her reactions to being on Earth! but atm it's hinted only dragons are capable of tracking down people across 'verses so im just saying...hey Paris...regarding Helene and your Dragon Pact powers...).
#TME art#for how much i obsess about Helene I don't draw her often lol#partly bc it's really hard to draw her right in my eyes#on things i really hope happen in the manhwa: it's PARIS who gets to visit Lyla on Earth first and learn her real name because in the LN-#he WAS the first one to find out her name so it'd be kind of a fitting homage to his LN self if he learned her Korean name first#and teleported to her first the way he did in the LN before Fian did#PLUS PLUS PLUS#I've been thinking about it a lot but irl!Lyla and Paris look like they could be siblings#and it'd be REALLY FUNNY if Paris appeared on Earth and was mistaken as a long lost brother or something#plus im ngl i kind of want to see him build a bond with Lyla and big brother her the way he did in the LN#either by protecting her from her shitty family or scaring them off#but also it'd be really funny to see Twilight's reaction to Paris in particular appearing on Earth#(also god i forgot Twilight was a plot point in the manhwa bc she never shows up in the LN lmao)#but at least i get to have hope we might get a IRL arc with Paris or Fian or Helene (or hopefully all 3!!!)#plus i don't think it's Twilight who found Lyla when she last passed out bc the person who saved Lyla didn't look like Twilight#so im wondering if either that was Fian from the future his reincarnation in this world or someone else?#now that im thinking of Twilight im wondering who she is even more now beyond being the author#is she really Sienna reincarnated like speculations assume?#perhaps even the old Lyla herself?#and will Twilight get to meet Helene aka the heroine she royally screwed over in more ways than one?#and what would Twilight think of Paris getting close to Helene considering what she knows about their OG relationship?#gosh im looking forward to the manhwa and how it handles Twilight/the dragons hopping dimensions (hopefully w/ their gals)#also just saying but Helene probably is the only one who has the capacity to reach Lyla atm bc she knew about Sienna's teleportation magic#and hypothetically she can reverse-engineer it to reach Lyla once she learns what the hell is going on#but considering Helene doesn't know Lyla's an imposter much less that she comes from another world would she be willing to do so?#and then there's the archery festival too that's either being skipped or going to see Lyla attend it like in the LN#waaaaaah i love all the changes the manhwa introduces it makes me so excited to see how Yuria will shake things up#especially since this round Lyla IS an imposter separate from the OG!Lyla and not someone who will end up turning into Lyla#i have SO MANY THOUGHTS on this manhwa and its direction esp compared to the LN jfc#im DEFINITELY waiting for the promise of Paris going to Helene to finally ask for her help

Tumblr media
General L Lawliet relationship headcanons
Tumblr media
Ok, first off it will take a very very long time before L even considers acknowledging any feelings he may have for you
I'm talking 3+ years
He is very distrusting of people, and wants to know that you won't put him or Watari in any danger
Once he does finally decide he trusts you enough, that's when his emotions begin to shine through
His biggest thing is staring, he will stare for hours on end, processing your behaviors, learning about you, etc
Something about his gaze is different too
His brows furrow in an almost worried way, as if it scares him that he can't logic his way out of his feelings for you
Confession is blunt with him (I hc him to be autistic, so tone isn't really a thing with him)
You'll notice that he hasn't done any work, which is very worrying considering who he is
So you turn your chair to look at him "Hey, are you ok? You seem kind of out of it"
"Yes, I'm just a bit frustrated is all" He says, staring up at the ceiling with his thumb between his lips
"About what?"
He takes a deep breath "Well, whilst getting to know you, I've come to realize that I have romantic feelings for you. This is troubling for me, as I do not have the time for anything as arbitrary as relationships. However, dwelling on these emotions aren't helping either, as it seems to take over my whole head space, making working almost impossible....The best course of action would be to confess my feelings, but problems will arise no matter what your answer to my confession is"
He finishes his rant and looks over at you blankly "Don't look so shocked. I still haven't decided whether I'm going to ask you or not"
You feel your face heat up and you quickly avert your gaze from his "right.."
A few minutes go by before you hear him speak again "Y/n?"
"Yes, Ryuzaki?"
"Will you be my partner?"
Once you are actually in a relationship with him, it takes him a while to get adjusted
He often forgets that he can be lovey dovey with you, or even that he should be
This being said, you'll have to initiate your first kiss
Communication is key with L, and while he is good at picking up on subtle hints, he prefers you to be direct with him
He's also rather shy when it comes to romantic things, so you being direct helps him feel more comfortable consenting
"May I kiss you?" You ask him one night, sitting comfortably on a hotel bed
He looks up from his laptop, placing his thumb on his lip, thinking long and hard about his decision
"Yes" He finally says, getting up and sitting on the bed, awaiting your kiss
The moment your lips touch his, he freaks out a little
It's all so new and overwhelming, but in a good way
He pulls away very fast, making you worry you did something to upset him
That same lovesick gaze creeps back onto his face, before asking for you to do it again
Once he gets used to it, he finds that he actually really likes kisses!
Kisses are one of the few physical things that he is fine doing whenever, wherever
His favorite spots to be kissed are on his forehead and cheeks, and he likes to kiss you on your nose and hands
Other than that, physical touch isn't much of a thing
If you wanted to cuddle, or if you wanted to hold his hand, he'd be up for it
He just won't seek those things out himself
He prefers small physical gestures, because they're easier and less overwhelming for him
He does things such as tug at the bottom of your shirt if he wants you to pay attention to him, lay on your shoulder, and smelling your clothes
Not in a weird perv way (although he very much is one of those
SPEAKING OF HIM BEING A PERV
Jfc someone come get this man
He seldom does anything touchy feely, but good god can this man stare
Stares at your butt as you walk to go get another cup of water, a barely visible grin coming to grace his face
Looking at your chest (doesnt matter if you're amab or afab) if you have a low hanging shirt that day
And when he does get touchy feely, it's in a more studious way if that makes sense
Like rubbing and squeezing your thighs just to see them jiggle, or running his fingers across your skin and smiling when he sees goosebumps show
As mentioned before, he doesn't like cuddling, but he loooves being in your general space
For example, he'll come sit next to you while you work, reading over all of your previously done tasks
Or if you go to brush your teeth, he'll go stand with you and put his face into your neck
When you can't be with him for whatever reason, he isn't above wearing your hoodies
He likes to wear them for the smell for the most part, but he also likes to wrap up in them like a little caterpillar and pretend he's metamorphosizing
His love language vibe is "sleepy"
Do with that what you will

HOTD S2 episode 2 "Rhaenyra the Cruel" reaction
• This OST! Djamin Rawadi is a god
• Can we appreciate Aegon's friends? Staying with him despite the state of madness he's in and closing the door to make sure he has some privacy
• oh so that shot of Aemond was him realising that he was the target!!!!
• I'm sorry I'm not that sympathetic to Alicent's tears? I just wish we could see more of Helaena grieving. I love the dress though
• ALICENT B&C IS NOT ABOUT YOU
• Otto shut up.
• Get Tom an Emmy, an Oscar and every single award in the world. His "what?" of disbelief to Otto stuck with me, dunno why
• In love with Larys' entrance. No one notices him until he speaks, he's in the background. Perfectly suits him
• "Bitch Queen of bastards" lmfao
• Love that the Council is shutting up and just letting Aegon rant. They're all scared of him in a way
• Who knew I'd ever be happy to see Larys?
• "I'll kill him myself" feed him to Sunfyre pls. Or Shrykos
• Aegon losing it every time Otto speaks is such a mood
• Jasper Wylde has a lign! Who knew.
• "We know our enemy!" with the little hand thingy was funny, I'm sorry
• Tyland!!
• "you're already seen as weak" oh fuck you Otto
• Why would anyone think that Rhaenys committing mass murder means Rhaenyra should be Queen???
• Aegon "my little son's body" broke me.
• Alicent calling Aegon "my darling" was sweeter than I thought.
• oh so Helaena can be a spectacle but not you??
• HELAENA MY LOVE
• LET ME HUG YOU
• DAEMON WHEN I CATCH YOU
• BALERION HIMSELF COULDN'T PROTECT YOU
• Oh my lord she's holding Jaehaerys' clothes 😭😭😭
• She's grief personified I can't breathe
• Phia is an angel
• THE TEAR ON HER CHEEK
• AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH the "I don't want them closer I don't know them" breaks me. She's my angel, I will fight the world for you
• ALICENT WHO CARES YOU'RE BANGING COLE. IT HASN'T BEEN 24 HOURS SINCE JAEHAERYS DIED
• "This is for my boy" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH.
• The toy horse 😭😭😭😭
• The music is so good
• (when did they have the time to make all the uniforms and banners??? Sewing ladies have been doing overtime)
• Blood IMMEDIATELY giving up all the information was low-key funny but it really showcases who he is. A big bully who uses his strength to hurt people weaker than hip (women and children) but the second he's caught? He folds like a coward.
• Lmfao Larys' face. Even he was like "damn dude I didn't even start"
• Who the fuck is the herald? I thought Otto would be the one doing this
• OH MY GOD THEY SEWED THE HEAD BACK?????
• ANGEL, BABY, I LOVE YOU
• DAEMON I WILL KILL YOU MYSELF
• The little circlet on his bead 😭😭😭😭
• why barn owls on the shroud? I mean it's Helaena and she's flawless so I like it anyway
• So the death of Jaehaerys has FINALLY been acknowledged as kinslaying as well
• Blood's face when he understands that Aegon is coming and that it's going to be painful
• Noooooo, I wanted more pain for Blood
• Oh no my girl being so overwhelmed. She's in pain 😭😭😭
• Oh Rhaenyra's reaction to B&C
• I mean why wouldn't they accuse you? Like? Bestie? Who would it profit to kill Aegon's heir?
• Is Daemon actually smirking???? This man istg
• Rhaenys immediately knew, this woman is too good for these people
• Rhaenyra's realisation
• "Killing it"??? IT???? WOMAN.
• DON'T YOU FUCKING LAUGH. If you felt any ounce of remorse, you would be screaming in rage about it
• "you have wounded me" BESTIE A CHILD DIED WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR STANDING
• JFC the way she reacted when he broke that glass!!! She's obviously scared, it's definitely not the first time.
• Emma the actor that you are. Rhaenyra looks ready to rip Daemon's head with her bare teeth (which she should do, it would be iconic)
• You are a monster dude
• Oooh that silence
• "because of your virtue" hshshsjsj
• Bestie Viserys named Rhaenyra heir out of grief and guilt
• "You're pathetic" is so iconic, love it
• Baela exists! That coat is atrocious though
• So no risking Jace but Baela is fair game huh? Bitch (and I don't even like Baela). Good scene though
• Behold, Daemon runs away from his family
• HELAENA STILL DOESN'T HAVE A GUARD???? WHAT???? AEGON HAS TWO HE COULD SPARE ONE
• Oh god her and Aegon. Grieving, broken, but unable to connect. I feel like she wanted to reach out in the stairs, but he runs away because he's on the verge of breaking down and be can't have that in public.
• The nodding???
• NOOO THE BED
• I mean, I know it's better but
• Oh god the mattress covered in blood
• The juxtaposition with Rhaenyra being with her son is heartbreaking. The way she realises that this is what Helaena lost, that Jaehaerys was that age
• ALICENT STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU BANGING COLE NO ONE CARES
• Also Cole should be guarding Helaena and Jaehaera
• The religious trauma of consensual sex
• I wished the Alicole storyline would take less screen though, I mean good for them but that mess of a relationship shouldn't overshadow Helaegon's doomism and greek tragedy right now
• Cole needs to stop beefing with the rest of the world, Arryk isn't responsible for it
• Love Arryk for calling out Cole
• LMFAO THE OTHER KINGSUARDS NOPPING OUT. Valid ngl
• YOU'RE MAD SER. Love him
• Cole's hypocrisy is a delight. He's a terrible person, but he's so interesting
• Why don't they use poison though
• Laenor being mentioned? Neat. Him teaching the boys about fishing and Sea Shanty is pretty fun
• Damn that scene is actually good!! A shame I couldn't care less about Baela and Rhaena
• Oh so that's the famous brothel scene?
• Aemond's mummy issues on fill display 🙏🏻
• I love the relationship between him and the madame ngl. Like I know he pays her for it but her gentleness with him seems to be at least partially genuine. Her facial expression when he doesn't look at her are pretty telling
• Hugh Hammer the return! Fuck if I care but hey, I'm not against them developing the Dragonseeds. I wish Nettles was around too. I guess Hugh will join TB after his family's death? Or he'll be a spy for TG? Dunno
• So we know Baela ends up with Alyn, and he looks so much bigger and older than her 😭 Like it makes sense but DAMN
• I genuinely cannot begin to care about Corlys to save my life
• WAIT RHAENYRA DIDN'T KNOW WHO MYSARIA WAS???? THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY
• Mysaria being a good character wasn't on my bingo card but I don't dislike it
• Seasmoke following Addam around like a lost puppy is so funny to me. Also his sounds are so cute. I guess Laenor died off screen?
• The focus on the smallfolk is great. It reminds me of Varys' quote about the smallfolk always being the one to suffers.
• Cheese didn't suffer enough and I wish that dog a very nice "find a better owner"
• "Oh, I had them hanged" is so fucking funny.
• Otto is right, though. Like, this was a terrible idea.
• Ooooh mentioning Jaehaerys was a dumb move. You should Aegon isn't going to be rational about it
• Aegon, you can show strength by, you know, USING YOUR DRAGON. Honestly a public execution of Blood would have been better
• Otto's "wtf" face is so funny. I love him. Tom and Rhys are carrying this entire episode. Phia too, but she's less present
• Otto, do you REALLY think Aegon gives a single fuck about Viserys???
• Otto being fired for upteenth time is so funny. This man files for unemployment every three weeks
• Otto's last act of defiance was great
• Yeah, Mysaria isn't exiting the show
• Oh, that's how she'll stay
• Elinda Massey exists!
• I'm glad they didn't make Rhaenyra fight Arryk like some believed. It makes much more sense for her to be genuinely scared for her life. Like, Arryk is a grown ass man in armour and literally one of the best knights of his time
• They deserved better
• Otto unknowingly dissing his daughter's bf right in front of her was peak irony.
• "Petty revenge"? A FOUR YEAR OLD CHILD WAS DECAPITATED
• FUCK YOU ALICENT. Your son isn't "valuable", he's YOUR SON
• DAERON MENTION!!!!!!!! VICTORY!!!!!!!!
• The generational trauma of zero communication 🙏🏻
• Aegon sobbing and breaking down
• Nooooooooooo
• My love
• Let me hug you
• He's so beautiful
• A fallen angel
• CRISTON LEGIT SITTING ON HER BED WAS SO FUNNY LIKE WHAT
• HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WAITING
• ALSO WHO IS GUARDING HELAENA
Conclusion :
Tom is a god, Phia is an angel, I will start a cult for Ramin Djawadi. The acting in general was top notch, but Tom and Phia have ascended to god-like.
Helaegon's doomism and Greek tragedy will be my death, I love them your honour.
The focus on the smallfolk was very good, and I hope they do it for both sides.

Just broke my own heart thinking about Rick being absent for Lori’s pregnancy with Judith since he was, understandably, emotionally checked out AND being completely absent with Michonne’s for RJ and how he missed welcoming them both into the world, plus not seeing them grow up as he said, for a man that only cares about his family he must carry so much guilt over that or feel cursed… also thought about Michonne probably being extremely anxious when RJ turned the age Andre was when he died and she had no one to talk to about it. Thinking about her having to deal with it all while being a grieving single mother of 2 leading a community also made me sad. lol I know they’re both resilient fighters but damn all of that is so heavy! I’m so happy they’re all back together now and can start some healing
ANON BESTIE WHAT THE FUCK?
Tumblr media
well okay sure. let's be depressing for a bit but then we should go back to grimes family headcanons okay?
it's honestly so tragic that rick was not able to see the birth of the child he wanted so badly, that he didn't even know RJ existed for almost a decade. the length of that time jump is honestly so evil - like yes, on one level it heightens the intensity of their bond, the way that they never even considered anyone else over all those years and stayed completely in love throughout that absence and distance. but god, it's just a really fucking long time. it's devastating!
it's also why I love that scene in the towl finale where rick expresses how angry he is about it, how just for a minute he lets himself say out loud that he just wants to be selfish for once and say fuck it let's go home, because he doesn't want to miss any more time than he already has. i also love the way andy played the reunion with judith and rj: the quiet grief in his face because he's mourning the time lost even while they're right in front of him, maybe even more so. like, of course he was distraught over how much he missed. this man held a shard of glass to his neck when he truly thought he could never see his family again (which i think we moved on from a bit too quickly tbh). his love for his family is his motivation for everything. keeping him away from them is the worst thing you could do to him, which is btw is why i'm not mad okafor is dead.
as for michonne. well my god anon did you have to go there with that andre/rj thing? i mean, yes you're absolutely right and you're completely brilliant but jfc that hurt. i honestly can't even think about those six years michonne spent grieving rick and raising their kids and protecting that community and getting that scar and everything else without getting upset. i genuinely hate it so much. i'm also constantly thinking about the scene where she finds evidence that rick is alive, the specific way her face contorts as she holds that phone like she's scared to even dare to hope, even though she never fully believed he was gone in the first place. we already saw how much she was struggling but that scene makes me want to set myself on fire. it's all just so fucking sad.
so yes. they better be left alone to heal in peace forever no more Situations no more near death experiences no more wars or fascist megalomaniacs with armies to overthrow. they've done enough!

Crimson Rivers thoughts pt. 44
chapter 67:
1. jfc remus (how is he that strong)
2. god, can’t our side have one fucking win? all these people captured. including my remus
3. “"She started the war for me, and she'll end it for me, too."” GOD i love lesbians
4. NO NO NOOOO NO NO NOOOOOO NOOOOO NOOOO MARLENE STOP NOOOOO!!! SHE WANTS TO PROPOSE TO DORCAS AFTER THE WAR!!!! SHES GONNA DIE I CANT HANDLE THIS
5. 😦
6. marlene?? i-
7. i’m still in shock
8. okay i have my bearings. this is why the post is two days after the last one lol. anyways, i’m actually pissed that she didn’t get to die a big dramatic or memorable death. she didn’t do anything. it was just a landmine. and she’s dead. and i get it, i really do. war isn’t always big heroic deaths. it’s also this. where one moment, you’re planning to propose to your partner and laughing with your freind, and half a second later, you’re blown to bits. but genuinely, her death fucked me up. i knew it was coming, but not like this. holy shit, not like this
anyways, the first thing i did after i read that bit was text my freind. and first thing they did was call me. i sent in bold “IM CRYING” and i get back “why” “MARLENE” bro immediate call. not well. not well at all
9. i continued and read the rest of her death. and her last words being dorcas will forever fuck me up
10. PANDORA????? PANDORA????
12. anyways all i did was call back the freind and say “PANDORA” and that bitch laughed at me. (love them to death) told them to go suck a lemon (they’d never heard that phrase before) and then they made me hang up to finish reading
my poor roommate has heard me call this freind twice (it’s ten o’clock at night)
13. “Horace would need more than just two hands, many more, to count the amount of people who would have gladly put their guns down for Pandora alone.” yeah, me for one
14. FLEAMONT NOOOOO
15. james will be devestated beyond belief
16. remus? huh??? he was shot in the head. but. he had a pov. i’m not sure now
17. …dorcas? i was so sure she had a pov
no wait she has a pocket. just checked
18. regulus???
19. um actually albus can fucking keel over. wont save all those other people in the lineup, then hears his brothers name and is willing to sacrifice the war for him. i get it, but alberforth knew this would happen to him
20. huh, damn. and alberforth still gets shot
21. 🚨🚨🚨pandora is safe. holy shit pandora is safe. i repeat pandora is safe 🚨🚨🚨
22. and fleamont and suddenly that all made sense
23. “”You forgot to count your bullets."” do i hate snape? yeah. but that’s fucking iconic
24. “Riddle lost the moment those doors burst open and two of Euphemia's someday son-in-laws moved into the room with Dorcas Meadowes one step ahead of them.” lmao freaking iconic. more historically important than trump getting shot
25. effie stopping to mourn barty gave me chills
26. NO FLEAMONT!!!! i’m getting fucking whiplash from this
27. effie having such a short pov but still so much emotion and character is shown in her love for fleamont
28. yall remus, regulus, and dorcas are fucking insane.
and i’m so here for it
29. “For all those years Sirius was taken away from him, Regulus breaks Riddle's fingers. Ten years, ten fingers.
For what Riddle took from James, Regulus takes his eyes. This is a difficult task. Regulus has never removed someone's eyes before. It's messy, and it takes the combined efforts of Remus and Dorcas to keep Riddle from flopping right out of his chair.”
mom pick me up i’m scared
30. “There are no good people in war, and now Dorcas thinks there are no good people out of it—certainly not her, because she would gladly go back into it just to have Marlene again.”
going feral over this actually. i’m unwell. i’m so freaking feral over this omg
31. reading authors notes and finding out that monty was author’s prim is actually making me go fucking insane
32. 😀 hi i’m unwell
(anyways side note, uhhh chapter was fucking insane but also like if y’all are reading this fic or this post, just know that there is no anger or resentment towards the author. he wrote this for himself and shared it with us. it’s a masterpiece and we RESPECT people. so yeah, this is the story he wanted to tell, so he wrote it for himself. just ya know, so yall remember)
[also don’t sell fics 😊 i will hunt you down]

(warnings: implied child death/murder, slight blood, eye contact, possible eyestrain)
Some More Updated Refs For The Rewrite! This Time: The Emily Family!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
@that-darn-clown @hello-there-world
more design details -
Henry:
anxious and awkward man. why did he decide to open a business where he'd mostly be around loud sounds and people? because he genuinely loves his work, that's why-
trans :] transmasc specifically (yes, he and Anna are t4t)
Henry pre-murders: goofy and socially awkward man who's just trying his best. just let him vibe with his kids, jfc.
Henry post-murders: angry, sad, and depressed man. only found solace in his work, and it's why he kept building animatronics for the company; it's one of the few coping strategies he had after Charlie was murdered.
his whimsy is gone entirely by 2012 (Fnaf 3) 😔
he has stability issues (always had, but they got worse with age. when he was still working at Freddy's and Fredbear's he'd almost appear to trip on nothing, or would balance himself on stuff like tables or the wall. this is me projecting a bit), hence the cane.
and, of course: Autism <3
Charlie:
gives off "tomboy, but probably actually transmasc but hasn't fully realized yet" vibes to me, hence the alt. outfit.
(fun fact: my headcanon for Charlie is that she's actually transmasc and bigender, but she died before she could really. realize that)
really likes the star aesthetic. if it wasn't obvious.
hair buns are actually meant to resemble bear ears :] she's a Daddy's Girl <3
really likes the bright green and black/white stripe combination. that long-sleeved shirt she wears in both outfits is her favorite.
both of the twins inherited certain things from their father (like the autism): for example, the freckles, the small tooth gap, the general nose shape, body shape, you get the idea.
kinda pissed and stressed all of the time as a ghost.
realized i forgot the Security Bracelet in her ghost design...shit. pretend it's there, because it's supposed to be.
take a wild guess how she died by looking at her ghost.
like Cassidy, and unlike the other MCI ghosts, Charlie is transparent and not desaturated as a spirit.
doesn't wear her animatronic mask often because she doesn't really. see a need to. the others use it as a way of scaring people, and she doesn't really wanna scare anyone. if she's showing up to you, she either needs help, or she thinks she looks scary enough. she Does wear it on occasion, though.
someone give my girl a BREAK.
Sammy:
has kinda always had Resting Bitch Face...and anger issues, but surely that's not important-
i dunno, i like contrasting The Emily Twins in some ways. Charlie is green, Sammy is orange. Charlie is seen as more loud and outgoing (which, again, gets her confused for an extrovert), Sammy is viewed as being quieter and less approachable. Charlie is more rugged but well-liked (kinda), Sammy is more "proper" but has a smaller circle of friends, comfortably slipping into the background (he's never liked the spotlight that having a somewhat popular/well-known parent brings, anyway).
Sammy kinda got. Really Angry after Charlie was murdered. they were two halves of a whole, she was one of his closest friends, someone who really Knew the Real Sammy Emily. and...she's Gone. just like that. why wouldn't he be angry? it certainly doesn't help how her body was found; thrown amongst the garbage like she was nothing. like she was trash. Sammy practically lost his world that day, and yet people were surprised that he was angry.
Sammy stopped really taking care of himself health-wise as the years went on, as he tried to hunt down Charlie's killer (unknowing that her killer lived only a few blocks down, and was a man he and Charlie had considered family). mostly, Sammy lost an unhealthy amount of weight (shown by his clothes no longer fitting him) and hardly really slept unless Henry forced him (take one look at those eyebags and tell me that's a sign that this man has gotten any good sleep since like. 1982). don't worry, he'll gain the weight back. :]

watched Deadpool 3 today. Please excuse me while I lose any marbles I’ve managed to convince you I have.
Spoilers! duh
Number one. First and absolute foremost. I will absolutely cream my jeans if Deadpool makes any cameo in any other marvel show/movie. Seeing him talk with Happy Hogan was already so great, and seeing any other characters trying to tolerate deadpools bullshit would be INCREDIBLE.
Something specifically that would make me happy cry would be seeing DP with Spider-Man. plEASE. Idgaf if they recast Spider-Man for a fourth fucking time or something but oml I would watch the hell out of that. (It would prob make the OTP SpideyPool shippers cream their jeans too, now that Tom hollands Spider-Man is legal. Would be a hell of a cradle-robbery though jfc.)
Number two. Honestly, I’d be completely fine if there were no more Deadpool movies. I feel like it’s alright to stop a good thing before it become a bad thing. E.g: not over doing it. It’s happened in many movies franchises before, and if happens to Deadpool I’ll probably kms. Like, three whole good movies is already teetering on the ledge. It’s fear-edging me. I’m scared the greed is gonna come back (did it really ever leave?) and target DP. So if they stop the movies while the going is good, I’d understand, but if so— please dear god I hope DP still makes appearances.
As in: maybe a tv show? Like, wasn’t there going to be an animated show at one point? It got scrapped I think, but something like that would fuck hard.
Number three. Just. Hugh Jackman. MAN. I’m ecstatic to see him play wolverine again. Positively quivering with excitement. I have no earthly idea if this was a one time thing, a final-but-for-real-this-time hurrah. But if it was: worth it. I squeaked when I saw him back on screen. Was shitting screaming crying at the end of ‘Logan’ when I first watched it (amazing movie btdubs) and even though it’s hilarious that Marvel didn’t let his movie-story end there— they just went “how about no”— I’m kinda glad that they didn’t just ignore that Wolverine ever died. And the fact that this movie helped set up a more coherent timeline for a bunch of other movies!!! I appreciate that sooo much!!!
Also. happy to see the movie people making another excuse to get wolverine naked.
“There are 206 bones in the human body. 207 if [Hugh Jackman is there].”
yeah okay I’m done. For now.
if you need someone to geek out about with, I’m here. Hmu. But beware, I’m not versed much in marvel’s comics.

Request from anon!!
Warnings: Major character death, mention of Y/N panicking, Joel blaming himself, somewhat ooc Joel (he’s so insecure please get him a therapist jfc), not necessarily a warning but this can be seen as platonic or romantic!
Summary: It was 10 years after the outbreak, Y/N left his home town and found Joel, who was on a smuggling mission. After completing it, Joel decided that keeping Y/N around would be helpful in the long run to get to Tommy, who was in Wyoming as of the last time Joel had heard anything. On the way out west, Joel opens up more to Y/N bit by bit and they found love in a the wasteland that’s left of the planet. They get to Wyoming and Tommy isn’t there, no trace of him even. it sparks something in Joel and things take a complete turn and Joel ends up leaving and as soon as he goes, they get trapped by a group of fireflies and Joel really regrets what he says
On the day of the outbreak, Y/N had no choice but to stay where he was, but after ten years, he couldn’t stand to stay in this place anymore. The QZ was full of fascist FEDRA officers who would do anything to keep ‘order’. The streets would be patrolled all night long, there would be casual searches of apartments where they claimed they would look for criminals but all they would do was go in and take people away from their families and shoot at any sign of protest. There were many nights where Y/N was awoken by screaming from his neighbors but he couldn’t get up and fight for them.
He couldn’t fucking take it any longer.
So, he left. He snuck out of his building under the cover of night fall and made it out like he’d seen smugglers do so many times from the window.
It was nearing a year since Y/N left the QZ, he’d come and go from different groups of people and ended up alone and scared for what seemed like the millionth time.
That’s when he came.
Joel.
He was on a smuggling trip and was making his way to Michigan, and got caught in an ambush and found Y/N hiding.
“No don’t shoot!” Y/N exclaimed, throwing his hands up “I’m unarmed.” he said, keeping his hands where Joel could see.
“Please help me, I don’t know who those people are. Please.” He started to beg, “I escaped my QZ about a year ago.”
Joel looked around and put his finger up to his lips. Y/N stopped talking and Joel moved to hide in the same spot that Y/N was just minutes ago. Y/N crouched back down next to Joel and watched as a few trucks passed by.
“Name.” That wasn’t a question, it was a demand.
“Y/N.” Y/N whispered.
“Where did you come from.” Another stern demand.
“San Francisco QZ.”
Y/N didn’t know why he trusted Joel as much as he did in this moment, it was probably because he was in a life or death situation right now and he was his only chance of making it out alive.
“Listen, I’m goin’ to get us out but you have to listen to what I say, and then you’ll be on your way Y/N.”
Y/N nodded.
The two stood up and Joel pulled the gun off of his hip and held it out in front of him as he slowly treaded into the street, it was dark outside but he couldn’t pull out his light because it was an obvious death wish.
Joel heard shooting behind them. He turned around and shoved Y/N back behind him and cocked his gun. There was someone shooting at them from afar.
“Shit aim.” He said to himself before he himself started shooting.
“Stay behind me.”
Joel walked toward where the person was shooting from, luckily it was only one person and Joel one shotted them.
“God damn idiot.”
Joel turned back around and the two kept quiet as they walked out of danger.
“Thank you.” Is all that Y/N could say when they were far away from the town.
“Keep quiet, there might be some more of them out here.”
“I think you’re overthinking”
Joel turned around, “I’m thinking rationally, we have no idea what’s out here.”
Y/N sighed, “Yeah, sorry…” He thought for a second, “Hey I never got your name.”
“Why do you need to know, we’re splitting our ways, I’m goin’ to finish my job and you’re gonna keep surviving.”
The two did not split ways.
It was a week later and Joel had brought Y/N all the way to the city in Michigan where he was taking his cargo to, and in return he got another gun from the person he was selling to.
“Here, you must know how to use it if you’ve been out here for this long.” Joel handed the pistol to Y/N, who nodded in agreement.
“Where are we going from here?”
Joel said nothing.
“Joel?”
“I’ve got a brother out west, I was thinking that I could get there easier if I had you navigating the way.” It took him ages to finally reply to Y/N’s question.
“What if he’s not there?”
“He will be.”
The two men walked out of the abandoned building that Joel met his buyer in and Y/N spoke up.
“The distance is a good fifteen hundred miles so if you have a truck hidden somewhere like all that ammo, it would be best to find it.”
“We’ll make do.”
The first few days went by cruelly slow, back and forth bickering between Joel and Y/N and sleeping in the middle of the woods feet apart, but as the days went past, the two started to open up more to each other. It was easier said than done for Joel, but Y/N had no issues with sharing his most of his story.
It was day twelve of walking and Y/N had found themselves in the middle of nowhere, it wasn’t like Y/N hadn’t been going this way before, but that was a year ago, so to say the least they were lost.
“Joel, I hate to say this to you but we might need to find a map.”
“Y/N tell me where we can find a map, look where the hell we are.”
“I sort of remember this area, there should be a truck stop somewhere.”
Joel said nothing and just kept walking.
Five miles later there was indeed an old truck stop, worn away by time and taken over by wildlife.
“You swear it’s empty?” Joel said, looking for an entrance.
“Well, I can’t promise anything, so pay attention to everything.”
“Save that advice for yourself Y/N” Joel found a loose board covering up a broken glass door and the two went inside.
They were met with the smell of mold and decay, the only sounds that could be heard were their footsteps crunching on the debris on the floor.
“Let’s find the map and get out, ‘kay, I think I remember the layout of this place” Y/N said quietly.
Joel nodded, it felt good to Y/N for Joel to agree with him for once, even if what he said was common knowledge between the two.
‘Oh you have to be fucking kidding me.’ Joel thought to himself, looking around seeing two dead bodies of what looked like smugglers based solely on what they were wearing. Y/N’s eyes went wide and his jaw dropped
“Fuck.” He mouthed
He pulled his gun out and Y/N did the same. They both held their weapons out and started walking, it got to a point in the building where the sunlight stopped leaking in and the both of them had to pull their flashlights out too.
That’s when Y/N heard the clicking.
He turned to Joel and put a finger over his mouth. Joel turned to look forward and took the smallest steps he possibly could to not make any noise and Y/N walked in the same manner.
They got to the back room where a clicker stood. Joel went to line up his shot, but before he even got his finger on the trigger, a gunshot from Y/N rang out. The clicker turned and screamed a guttural sound, Joel let out two quick shots from his gun and the clicker fell to the floor.
“We have to get out of here. Now.” He said bluntly, Y/N turned to run out of the truck stop and made it to the doorway they came in before realizing that Joel wasn’t behind him.
“Fuck, Fuck, Fuck.” Y/N started to panic.
“JOEL?” He yelled out.
“Y/N GO.” Joel yelled back, he sounded far away from where Y/N was standing, there were two gunshots and then the sound of heavy boots on tile floor, Y/N got out of the door and waited for Joel to make it and slammed the board against the door.
“Jesus fuckin’ Christ.” is all Joel said between heavy breaths.
“What happened back there?” Y/N grabbed onto Joel’s arm, “Scared the fuck out of me man.”
“Those smugglers turned, they almost got me.”
“Thank god they didn’t, I don’t want to be out here alone again.”
“Thank you for waiting, I’m not 100% sure if they’re dead so we have to get going.”
“What about the map?”
“Fuck that map, we need to go, Y/N.”
The two kept walking West. It would take at least 6 more days for the two to even make it to Wyoming, let alone find where Tommy was.
Just as it started to turn to night, Joel and Y/N decided to stop for that night and set up camp in the woods so if anything was coming, they would be able to hear if a branch snapped or leaves rustled.
“Hey, Joel, can I ask you something?” Y/N asked, setting down the lamp that Joel brought.
Joel looked up from where he was laying out their sleeping bags.
“Do you have any other family out here besides Tommy?”
“M-mm.” Joel shook his head.
He really didn’t, he would have Sarah if he could have saved her that day, but things didn’t go the way he had planned to that night.
“D’you?” Joel asked, getting into his sleeping bag.
“No. My sister died the night of the outbreak, we’d planned to get to LA but it was so damn crowded in the streets, the runners got to her before we could run out of the town.”
Joel turned to see Y/N starting to tear up.
“Sorry, talking about her makes me so emotional, she was only 17. It almost felt like I was her dad, or at least in that moment.”
Y/N sniffed and laid down in his sleeping bag.
“I know how you feel,” Joel turned off the lamp and laid down too.
“You said you didn’t have family out here?”
“I lost my little girl when the outbreak started.”
“How old?”
“12.”
Joel turned away to face away from Y/N
“Fuck I’m sorry, I wouldn’t have asked if I knew it would upset you.”
Y/N sat up and looked over to Joel, he’d never seen the older man so vulnerable.
“Joel,” Y/N moved closer to him “I’m sorry. I know how you feel, I know that you feel like you need to protect me, and I need you to know that I’m gonna survive this and we’ll get out asses to Wyoming and find your brother.” He said putting his hands on Joel’s shoulder. He felt the man tremble slightly under his touch.
“You don’t need to apologize, Y/N.” Joel shrugged Y/N’s hand off his shoulder and turned to look at him, Y/N got up and kneeled by Joel’s side to hug him.
Joel didn’t know what to do at first honestly, it was the first time he had felt any empathy in 11 years. Just as Y/N was going to pull away and apologize, Joel swung his arm around his side and hugged him tightly.
“Okay, shit Joel, too tight.” Y/N struggled to say, Joel took his arms out from around Y/N and mumbled a small ‘sorry’.
“Tell me about her in the morning.” Y/N said, scooting back to his sleeping bag.
Joel nodded and reached to turn off the lantern behind the two of their heads.
Joel didn’t get much sleep that night, he kept waking up and falling back asleep to only repeat the process until morning. That was a common occurrence for him lately. When the sun came up, Joel started getting all of his things together to be prepared when Y/N woke up. It was only about a half an hour before he did wake up though.
When he woken up, he saw that all of Joel’s things had gone and he started to think that Joel left him like he had done with so many different groups of people.
“Morning.” Joel said from a few feet away, he was sitting on a tree trunk that had fallen down a long time ago.
Y/N let out a sigh of relief and got up from his spot. He noticed that Joel had packed all of their stuff up into their backpacks except his sleeping bag. He rolled it up quickly and fastened it so it wouldn’t come undone while they were walking.
“What was she like?” Y/N asked after a while.
“She was a lot like her mom, same eyes and smile y’know, things like that.”
Joel kept what he said about Sarah short and sweet and they moved on from there.
It felt weird to Joel to be this open with someone he met less than a month ago, but it somehow felt right to him at the same time.
The two kept walking, and walking, and walking some more for a full day and a full night. They reached a sign that read
“Welcome to Nebraska!” In massive letters, it was covered in graffiti and rust from all the time it was out there with no one to keep it pretty.
As day turned to night once again, Joel and Y/N found a place far from any life that would be out there, and called it a night.
Joel watched Y/N lay out his sleeping bag and turned to do the same, he thought for a second and decided to speak on his thoughts.
“Y/N, bring your sleeping bag closer.”
“Uh, okay,” He moved his stuff closer and sat down on top of it. “Is everything alright Joel?”
Joel nodded, “Yeah just thinkin’” He said quietly.
“So you wanted me to move closer to you because you’re thinking?” Y/N laughed a little.
“Yeah about you idiot.”
Y/N looked and Joel confused
“Why are you so nice to me?”
Y/N went to speak but Joel cut him off
“I’m mean and I’m bossy, I have no redeeming traits.”
Joel finished and Y/N sat there for a minute thinking of what to say.
The hardened man he had grown to know just spilled out to him and he honestly didn’t know what to do.
“Joel, you saved my life, you’ve kept me out of danger that would have killed me by now, yes you’re mean but that’s who you are.” he finally said breaking the silence that seemed hours long.
Joel hugged Y/N, just like they hugged when Joel told him about Sarah.
“Can we uh, sleep like this?” Y/N suggested, still hugging Joel tight, he was enjoying the human touch just as much as Joel was.
“It’s kinda complicated with two separate sleeping bags Y/N. How big is yours?”
Y/N tensed at those words and Joel noticed.
“Your fuckin’ sleeping bag Y/N.” Joel said flatly.
“Oh it’s big enough for both of us I think, we’d have to squeeze together but it would work.”
Joel let go of Y/N and scooted out of his own sleeping bag and Y/N got in and opened up the zipper to let Joel squeeze in next to him. It was kind of uncomfortable at first for both of them and they knew they would wake up with aching backs but they repositioned themselves and got comfortable.
That was one of the first nights Joel had slept fully through.
‘I’m fuckin’ losin’ it.’ He thought when he woke up with the heat off of Y/N’s body radiating onto his back and an arm around his waist.
He was again, the first to wake up and the moment he moved to try and get up, Y/N woke up.
“You feeling better Joel?”
Joel hummed in response, as much as he hated feeling vulnerable, he really liked having someone not tell him that he should fix himself.
“Good, let’s get going.”
The two packed up their stuff and trekked through rain and sun until they reached a sign that brought a smile to Joel’s face.
It was the first time that Y/N had seen Joel smile a genuine smile.
“Kay enough ogling the sign let’s go find Tommy.” Y/N smiled.
“Welcome to Wyoming.”
As Joel and Y/N walked further into the state, they were awestruck about how beautiful the landscape managed to stay,
“Joel listen,” Y/N whispered
“It’s just deer Y/N.”
“No those steps are too heavy.”
“Well, whatever it is I’m sure they don’t need us to help, there’s no screaming.”
Y/N nodded and they kept walking.
They had finally reached Casper, the last place Joel had heard from Tommy, the city was desolate, not a single form of life as far as the eye could see. Joel’s joy suddenly disappeared.
“Where is he?” Y/N asked quietly.
“I- He-.”
Joel screamed out Tommy’s name, he didn’t want to think that he wasn’t here anymore, he needed him back. Ten years was a long time without your brother.
“Joel we’ll find him don’t worry,” Y/N went to put his hand on Joel’s shoulder, put Joel pushed it away before it even made contact.
“You don’t know dangerous this place is for him, Y/N. He could be dead.” Joel started getting angry and Y/N backed away from him.
“Joel, I do know.” Y/N assured
“You only survived because I helped you, you were unarmed and you would have died, and do you think Tommy is armed?”
“Yes Joel, he was a firefly of course he would be armed.”
Joel sighed and stopped talking and Y/N scanned his face for any emotion.
“I need to go, I dug myself too deep and I need to go and you need to go back to San Francisco.”
“Joel, I can’t go back, they’ll kill me, and I know you’ve been smuggling for a long time but you were just as lost as I was when we needed to find a map, I can help you Joel.” Y/N begged.
“No, I’m going to look all around here and find my fucking brother.”
Joel walked away and Y/N just watched him,
“Joel, don’t fucking leave me here.” He started to get choked up.
Joel said nothing and kept walking.
Y/N accepted defeat and turned away so he wouldn’t have to watch Joel leave.
Just as Joel reached the door of the building they were in, he noticed a group of people walking towards it, he turned around and ran back to the room Y/N was in.
“I thought you were leaving, Joel.” Y/N said, he was sitting on the floor with back against the wall.
“There are people coming towards here, we need to hide. Right now.”
“What?”
“Right now, Y/N.”
Joel helped Y/N stand up and they found a smaller room off the room that they were already in and crouched down behind boxes.
They were in the same position they were the night they met. Joel was crouched in front of Y/N and pulling out his gun, and Y\N was behind Joel, he was armed this time, but it still felt the same to him.
“Joel, let me go out there I can protect myself.”
“No. You stay he-“
Before Joel could even finish his sentence, Y/N was getting up from behind him.
“Fuck. Y/N, get the fuck back behind me!” Joel whisper-shouted.
Y/N didn’t listen and he made his way back into the room they were in moments prior.
It was almost cliche how Y/N was struck down as soon as he walked into the open area. Joel heard the gunshot and booked it into the room.
“Holy shit.” is all he said when three firefly members stood in front of the door to leave.
“Joel?” Y/N asked weakly.
“Hey, stay with me Y/N don’t fucking do this, I’m sorry for what I said earlier please don’t fucking do this to me.” Joel started tearing up.
Four shots rung out through the building, Joel shot all three of the members, he missed one but almost instantly got them down with the fourth shot.
“Joel, who were those people?”
“I don’t know Y/N,” Joel looked down to see blood spilling onto the floor. “Fuck, c’mon we have to get you up.” Y/N winced as Joel tried to slide his arm under his waist.
“Joel stop.” Y/N said, pushing Joel’s arms off of him.
“Please, Y/N I- I’m sorry for saying you would have died back in Chicago.”
Joel just broke down at this point, he gripped onto the front of Y/N’s shirt and held him in his arms, just like he did that night in Nebraska it hit him, he realized that no matter how much he tried, people around him would keep getting hurt or killed, it happened to Sarah, God knows what happened to Tommy, and now it’s Y/N.
All Joel could think about was how he said that Y/N would have never survived and that’s why he got up when he had told him to stay behind him,
He wanted to prove to Joel that he could save himself.
And that’s what killed him. Words that came out of Joel’s mouth. Words that Joel said to him. Joel thinking that he was weak.
The man would never forgive himself, he would never let anyone close to him ever again in fear of the pattern repeating.

Yuuri Katsuki has Bullied Kid energy.
Yuuri : Don't you dare see me as weak or perceive my vulnerability. Please comfort me and reassure me. I'll be constantly afraid of your reaction if I inconvenience you. Nothing scares me more than the people I trust lying to me. I'm more competent and at home in the face of people's scorn than in the face of their genuine love for me. The idea that anyone could see me as desirable is baffling. The world sees me as little more than dirt and I don't disagree with them. I am going to make them eat their teeth with their words or so help me I will set myself on fire trying. Just watch, I am the most beautiful woman in town and you will rue the day you underestimated me. How you like me now?
Victor, thinking he'd been dumped by the first person who'd made him happy in a very long time : I see this, I respect this, I am going to use the hell out of this. Hey. Hey fatty. Watch me pry the thing you love and use to cope with your feelings right out of your fingers until you lose weight. kinda reminiscent of what you did to me :) kinda sorta you know just a lil bit. You don't know what eros is? Okay, now you're just making fun of me.
Victor, after Yuuri had his katsudon eros realization : ...JFC he actually literally doesn't know. I. Uh. ...Huh. Well. Uhm. Okay. Maybe that means he doesn't get OTHER things too. He. He genuinely doesn't know what he did to me. He probably didn't even do it deliberately. Okay. Okay? Okay. I can work with this. THINK OF THE JUICY SUCCULENT PORK, BABE. ...I can't fkn believe this.
Victor, several episodes later when Yuuri reveals he literally doesn't remember the banquet: ...Well shit. The past year of my life has been a lie and I might be an asshole. Hm.
I've read some fics where after Yuuri's ED gets triggered and he crashes hard Victor looks back at all those early comments and goes 'I didn't mean it that way babe you're hot when you're fat and you weren't even that fat it was just that it could be unsafe for your joints to skate in that condition' and sure okay I get wanting to minimize the blow and Yuuri is adorable AF when he's heavier and i still enjoy those fics for the most part but
I disagree with that fully and completely cus nah, Victor's a petty lil bitch who can be cold and ruthless and isn't afraid to hurt people. Is he also warm and kind and loving and doing his best? Yes. He contains multitudes. But he was absolutely aiming to hurt, because he was hurt.
Yuuri, meanwhile, who's been bullied for a great majority of his childhood but has complete faith in Victor and unwavering confidence in his honesty - especially when that honesty fits his world view - that he has an entire Victor shaped blind spot : Eh? Pfft. He wasn't bullying me, what are you talking about? He was literally telling the truth. :/ I mean really, he was taking care of me.
Victor, falling to the ground and clutching his stomach with a groan because ooouuugghhh guilt-nausea : Y-....Yuuri.....
Yuuri : I mean Yurio can be a bully but that's just how he shows he cares so :3 Nah haha, I've had waaaay worse, trust me, lol
Yurio : ....I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of?
Victor, convulsing :
I think Yuuri can absolutely pick up on when Victor is being dishonest with him and poking his sharp little fingers into the sore spots, but more on an intuitive level that he doesn't know how to make sense of logically, so he just accepts it and moves on largely without comment a;dlkf he'll probably figure it out like fifteen years down the road when he's older and wiser and one day he squints at his husband and goes "...huh, okay" and then never does anything about it anyway because he loves Victor and forgives him and also Victor's hot when he's being mean so

Au where Trost didn't happen and no one realised Eren is a titan, so Aruani happens while they're in different departments
The squad coming from a Scout mission and being scared shitless by Annie hanging on the windowsill like batman.
Armin " let me shower" and Annie just dragging him into the bathroom and locking the door
Hitch talking a big game, but SHE never brought a date into the room. She's mad at Annie, and would be more mad, but she actually likes Armin ( he usually brings breakfast/ desert and helped her write a very corporate approved fuck you letter to a suitor, so atp, HE can stay but Annie is on thin ice)
Eren being somwhow oblivious to it all, and it's not even that Armin is hiding, it's just that Eren never asked
Hahaha xD This would be your classic steamy office romance, except it's military departments!
Ordinarily there's strict protocol as far as entry into Scout and MP areas are concerned, one cannot simply waltz into the other without a a valid reason in writing. But guess which two people CAN? When Annie shows up on a random sunny day wearing the most fake disinterested face and asks for Armin, you have Armin bounding over from a mile away like a golden retriever doggo, going "Aaaaannie!" And because he's so trustworthy and diligent and proper and wouldn't-commit-a-single-mistake-in-his-life, the higher ups just- let Annie go with him because surely, he'll take care she doesn't escape with all their confidential info right? Right?
(well, right, sorta, because Annie did go there to find out the Scouts' very secret mission plans but she gets sidetracked into making out in the storage-room for 3 hours).
As for Armin, he's always very nervous and shy going to visit Annie in the MP headquarters. The people there are imbeciles, often poking fun at him for being a Scout, gloating about their own comfortable, danger-free lives and generally being assholes. It's hard at first, he barely can ask for Annie at the inquiry desk, and a few guys even snicker, saying "You? Want to see Annie? Man, you're going to be eaten alive if she even comes haha!" But GUESS WHO'S THE WINNER heh. Annie DOES come. With a withering glare for everyone in the vicinity exCEPT Armin. And as time passes, nobody makes fun of him anymore. They give his horse way, they allow him to walk in peacefully, they even offer him tea! Move over fake-ass royals in wall Sina, the Arlert boy is the real KING.
(and once inside the MP headquarters, you know, Aruani spend some really nice quality time on... very nice beds...)
Hitch is very annoyed with everything. Yes she cuts Armin some slack but the whole thing pisses her off. Lots of really nice guys and girls in the Scouts too but how come SHE doesn't get a free pass to walk in there huh? Just her bad luck that Aruani are cringe-ass lovebirds... she punishes Annie by giving her extremely bad and wrong NSFW ideas (but that backfires horribly cuz it turns out Armin just adores when Annie carries them out and fails at them... adorably), and she punishes Armin by overloading him with her own MP reports (but that too, backfires horribly because he ENJOYS writing! The nerve! What a loser! and he gives her a big bright "hehe" smile too cuz she's "Annie's friend <3).
JFC.
