#just like bill does XDD

[purplemang0z]

Ok, I have an AU idea for Ride the Cyclone that I've been thinking about for a bit. So in honor of Rtc day, I'm gonna explain it so I have the motivation to actually draw it.

The Digital Cyclone AU

After the choir's fall fair show, they find out that there's a new virtual rollercoaster for the fair and they all decide to try it out.

But while they're in the machine a fire starts and it begins to burn down as they fall down the rollercoaster in the headset.

Their consciousnesses transfer into the internet and they meet Karnak (He's kinda like Akinator).

Just imagine the rest of the musical happens the same (with altered lyrics and cooler outfits), but Karnak is lying about being able to bring one of them back to life so he can have a little fun with them before his site shuts down.

So their consciousness transfers into the internet and they become internet games based on their lives and personalities.

Ocean's game is called: Ocean's Perfect Town, where she tries to fix the people of the town with some slightly mean criticisms. (She is a bit nicer than in the actual musical because of her character development, but she's still a little bitchy). You win by fixing everyone in the game.

Noel's game is called: Dress with Monique Gibeau, it's a dress up game. It'd probably be similar to dress to impress, but the themes always revolve around Monique's aesthetic. But with catty comments on your outfit. (I've never played dress to impress so I don't know if they already do this)

Mischa has two games: Bad Eggs's Music and Talia's Painting. Bad Eggs's music is a game where you choose different types of dollar bills and the bills create different combos of music. And Talia's Painting is an art game where Mischa asks you to help him paint a picture for his fiance and then mail it to her.

Ricky's game is called: Battle For Zolar. It's a rhythm game/online dancing game. It's basically a bunch of dance battles with slightly sexual innuendos but enough so that they go over kids heads. xDD

Constance's game is called: Constance's Candy Shop. It's basically a cooking game. You make a bunch of candy for people and if you don't do it at the exact correct time you lose. And it also makes you choose the correct comments to say to people. And if you choose the wrong message your customer gives you a bad rating. The more bad ratings the more your health goes down.

Jane Doe's game is called: Find My Head. It's basically an online Where's Waldo game but for Jane Doe's doll head. But the farther you get in the game, the more the doll starts looking like Penny.

The twist is that at the end of all these games the characters get more deformed/try to ask you to let you out of the games. Kinda like a horror ARG/ like Lacey Games.

I feel like they would say their catch phrases and bits and they would mention the cyclone incident vaguely in their speaking lines.

I'll update in another post once I get more ideas.

[leftdestiny-posts]

My apologies for spamming your notifs lately but I randomly thought of this after messing up an egg recipe :’3

-

Whenever the Segments get mad at Cupcakettore, they try to sabotage his desserts. Once, a Segment snuck into his kitchen after the egg whites and yolks were separated. He then proceeded to pour all of the yolks into the bowl of egg whites, thereby wasting Cupcakettore’s earlier efforts. He even went as far as to poke the yolks to thoroughly mix them.

The next day, all of the Segments were served (poisoned) scrambled eggs for breakfast.

-

Also, ten-page ramblings, you say?? I shall make more room in my brain for Cupcakettore xD

Please, never apologize for giving me notifications!! It's a joy to see asks/messages from you :DD jkafnjkfn can you imagine my joy when I got this scenario for cupcakettore from you? While it's not quite ten pages, I definitely rambled for a while,,, so beware when you read this XD (note: I went really off topic but I added a doodle to compensate ^^;; forgive me XDD)

Before I'll drop the HCs, let me adore this scenario because <3 YES!!! (I have this lemon merengue cake recipe and I ALWAYS!! :(( mess up the eggs. I feel your (and cupcakettore's) frustration...)

Cupcakettore (quite literally) doesn't fit in the way he was designed to do, and while he is part of the hivemind, the others tend to make his life miserable whenever they can (granted, that is only possible by ruining his recipes lmao, hence situations like these).

Never before did the other segments (nor Zandik himself) understand his passion for baking (likely they never will). And while cupcakettore compares the kitchen to the other's lab and baking to experiments,,, the others just don't get it.

[Okay, I'll drop some HC's before I (hopefully) cycle back again to the scenario because cupcakettore (dubbed "DOTT" for simplicity,) has lots of lore in my head jsnldg]

• He was the first segment to be considered 'successful'. However, Dott remains far from resembling Zandik, as he is closer to becoming an 'individual' instead of a segment from the past. (let me explain;)

• While Kunikuzushi was created from wood, I imagine the current segments to be made from a combination of techniques from Ei's prototype puppet + Kharnri'ahn technology/Ruin guard parts. DOTT, instead, is a result of biotechnology --- a combination of innovative technology on human evolution + Ei's techniques for creating Scaramouche.

• ALSO!!! "Water holds memories", every segment carries a vial with blue fluid which connects them to the hivemind, and in extension, Zandik. These vials hold the memories that shape them, giving them personalities, and setting their traits fixed to a segment of "Dottore's"/"Zandik's" life (a.e. one of the 'younger' segments holds Zandik's memories of the Akademiya,, another of his first years in the Fatui,,, etc!! They all know what happened in the entire timeline [from Zandik's oldest memories to his recent ones], but if they're not in the vial, they haven't 'experienced' those memories; thus it doesn't shape their personality)

• But... Dott was only a prototype,, and thus hadn't been created with the 'vial' in mind. He was shaped to be a clone of Zandik; he got the same beliefs and ideas implanted in his mind ever since he first woke up; but without being a fixed part of the hivemind, he was able to drift into an individual (and while he's still very much a version of Dottore, he did gain some personal quirks that don't belong before he got added to the hivemind. Zandik suspects his unchained love for experiments (main_trait_1) and curiosity (main_trait_2) ended up being DOTT's downfall into a baker.)

• No one knows why this segment hasn't been deactivated (Pantalone sure questions it every time he gets a bill that consists of baker ingredients). --- Perhaps the first working prototype is a reminder of how far Zandik has come in his research, and perhaps he is there as cannon fodder, but at the end of the day, Dott does introduce a new perspective (even if most can't see that perspective).

• Everyone underestimates this segment until they remember that this segment is created in the image of the 2nd Harbinger.

• My guy created one of the most potent poisons on 'accident' (which he is currently banned from making again because of its effects). Dott also 'accidentally' created a truth serum that's now used for information gathering (although this ended up attracting a lot of rip-off serums on the market that didn't originate from DOTT. Pierro ended up having to ban this invention as well, since no one could differ a working truth serum from the cheap less-effective version of it (information intel became unreliable))

• He loves LOVES robots!!! Loves dissecting them, putting them back together, repeating, replacing parts, changing parts, and creating something new. He doesn't make many useful inventions in the field of machinery, but he remains incredibly intelligent and has a knack for remembering everything step by step, making ruin guard dissection and repairs his to go to job. (Though, if forced to choose between baking and robots... you know what he'll choose LMAO)

• One time he killed Zandik's favorite assistant on accident, but it's the assistent's fault, really!! After all, Dott did put a warning sign next to his fresh batch of cupcakes... Although, in hindsight he should've written the 'beware: poison' on a bigger piece of paper and not on a sticky note.

• He puts the most questionable things into his cupcakes. If it's not a new poison or serum, it'll likely be something worse (don't ask him)

• Once, a Fatuus was overheard laughing about the segment who baked in his free time. --- He ended up in the oven that same day, only for Dott to laugh in revenge.

• He shares his cupcakes, and while it's rude to decline them (he will turn you into his new red velvet batch), you can't be cautious enough with eating them.

• He ended up going into retirement once Zandik created enough segments. He was allowed to remain activated for as long as he delivered test subjects. So, he opened a bakery. The unsavory patrons that enter his shop end up getting delivered to his fellow kinship in the capital labs.

• His bakery is successful (to everyone's surprise)

• If you're polite (bonus points if you're a regular), you'll be safe. Contrary to normal belief, he does have a heart in the shape of curiosity and validation, so if you're a sweetheart breaking into his routine, you'll end up getting his special made cupcakes (he baked them just for you!) and the news of your annoying co-worker suddenly missing! (Tell Dott about it, he'll laugh. Just don't ask why he does)

OKAY SO!! I can 100% see (pre-bakery times) a new segment stealing one of his cupcakes (god forbid mess with his recipe and he's like;

Imagining a new(-ish) segment messing with his eggs after Dott spent HOURS on separating them (curse that Fontainian macaroon recipe,,,) --- DOTT will get revenge.

Fortunately, the segments are durable, else they would've died from that new poison he added.

[slashingdisneypasta]

Oh god... Oh God Slashing, my man, I just got this thought and I NEED to put this here while it's still fresh in my mind.

Ok so you and I both write Wheezy being handsome, yeah? Especially when he cleans himself up and looks like a cologne commercial without trying?

What if Wheezy was like the groups Harper and Smartass would be Buckman pimping him out? Yeah, Greasy is already throwing himself at women, though it's safe to assume that that doesn't make women swoon XD so if for whatever reason, the group needed to seduce somebody, Smarty knows he's gotta send in Wheezy. Oh I imagine Greasy would be miffed XDD

Your thoughts?

Omg! I'm imagining that scene in Atlantis where the team is trynna 'decide' who should go schmooze Kida and Mole (Greasy) keeps popping up like 'I will do it!', 'I am your man!', 'For the good of the team, I will do it!', until Rourke (Smartass) smacks Milo (Wheezy), who could not care less, on the shoulder and goes 'Thanks for volunteering', causing Mole Greasy to start sobbing XDDD

Anyway- I love this. Here's a

Wheezy Weasel x Fem! Reader x Greasy Weasel || Drabble

Plot: Wheezy is instructed to charm Y/N, the recently ex girlfriend of a powerful Mafia toon in town that they have had some trouble with for years, and get information out of her (Like where has he run off to?)- except Greasy has a huge Thing for Y/N and he's very insulted that he wasn't given this job, and now Wheezy has to deal with Manipulative Pervert antics.

Warnings: Greasy bring Oppertunistic (Seeing Y/N's heartbroken drunkenness as an In), and just like... being himself. Also I'm not sure if this is coherent 😅

Greasy Weasel's POV

"Alright, Wheez- "As soon as Smartass glances at the smoker he does a double take, scowling. And I dont blame him, el fumador looks like a disgraceful mess- but what else is knew really?? I roll my eyes, crossing my arms. "Fucken hell, Wheezy. Brush your hair. You're up." Here I set my jaw and repress the angry words I want to spit at them both- why does he get to have all if the fun??? I am right here-

Wheezy heaves the heaviest sigh known to man kind, like an absolute drama queen, smoke slipping out of his mouth, nostrils, and his eyeballs. Honestly you'd think that if smoke started to leak out of your eyeballs you may cut back, but no... and this is the man that the Boss thinks can charm the women. Tch. Imbéciles estúpidos. "Boss, really?... "

"Yeah, really. I'm not talking for my own amusement, am I??? Heck no. Wash your face." It is going to take more then that to make el fumador a member of society, but okay-

"I was really hopin' to like... take a back seat, on this one... "

I cant help the annoyed huff, I make at this. The boss gives me a dangerous side eye and Wheezy looks unsurely at me, as if he is some kind of victim in all this, but I refuse to look at either of them; Just merely whistle and look off to our other two comrads picking at something squishy in the gutter.

Smartass rolls his eyes at me, then returns his attention to Wheezy, his eyes hard and mean. "Wheezy. There is a pathetic, heartbroken woman in there," He points at the bar we're parked next to, where Y/N is, "with information, gettin' drunk- Get your lazy flat ass in there."

Smartass' beautiful description of her almost gets me hard (she's so vulnerable right now- if I could just get close to her- speak to her- aghhhh!) but while I'm standing stiff trying to calm myself down- Wheezy actually groans (Where I can hear him!) and hunches his shoulders (Where I can clearly see him!), before slinking in.

Grrrrrrr, this ungrateful, undeserving, selfish- "And, now, we play the waitin' game. Greasy, go down the road and get us some snacks, will ya?" Smarty suddenly thrusts a few bills in my hands. Qué? Do I look like your server?? "I'm gonna take a nap in the van. And dont forget the red vines this time, will ya?"

With that, the boss slinks into the back of our dodge and slams the doors shut behind him. I make a face after him for a few moments, insulted by his usual brash manner, before... an idea, occurs to me.

As Stupid and Psycho continue to play with gutter garbage nearby, I compose a plan.

Heheh. I can be back before Smartass wakes up.

~

Ahhhh, there's the bastard.

As soon as I walk in, I spot them. Y/N's hunched on her elbows by the bar, her eyes wide with delicious, innocent, vulnerable intrigue as Wheezy (A.K.A the bastard) talks to her.

I taste something terrible watching them, because admittedly el fumador is rather charming when he tries to be (And sometimes when he isn't. I think it has something to do with how relaxed~ he seems to be, all the time. I could never be like that, not even if I, too, smoked 17 packs an hour- ) and he does have nice eyes,.. but goddamnit, that old man is going down. I can do this.

I would say I'm apologetic for what I must do- but I am not.

"Y/N!" Her body jumps when I appear on her other side, turning around to look at me with pretty rounded eyes; A definite haze of intoxication behind them. A smirk slithers across my face looking down at her. "Funny to see you here!- I had no idea. And- with el fumador!.. of all people... How nice. Mind if I join you?"

Wheezy gives me a raised-eyebrow look from Y/N's other side, but I ignore him! ^^ "Grease, what're you doin'?"

My attention is only for Y/N- pathetic, pregnable, easy Y/N. She glances at Wheezy, before settling her attention on me again. "Um- sure! What are- what are you doing here?"

"Ohh, nothing much~ Gracias for allowing me to crash your night, hermosa. Very sweet of you."

Nervously, she gives a faint smile; Shrugging. "Ohh, its n- nothing... I wasn't doing much... " Oh, the adorable, heartbroken thing she is. She doesn't know we are perfectly aware of her break up from that dumb asshole she's been with, today. Or that we kind of caused it. Afterall, he didnt leave town for no reason... Of course she doesn't- I should play this subtly.

"Mmm... and where is your boyfriend, Y/N? Surely he wouldn't leave you alone in a bar looking so beautiful~... Unsavoury types may approach." At this, I do finally look at Wheezy, and he gives me a very unamused look in return. Oh, he has no sense of humour-

"More unsavoury than you?" Y/N suddenly snaps, eyes flashing knowingly at mean- oh. She's more clever than I thought. Okay. I see.

"... can I buy you another drink, Hermosa?" She's not nearly drunk enough.

"Greasy." Wheezy warns, again. But Y/N takes a deep breath and nods, and then he's looking surprised at her. "Are you sure, about that?"

She shrugs back at him as I order her another of what she was drinking. "... yeah. I um- Brick broke up with me, today. I could use a few hundred... thousand, drinks."

Aww... pathetic little thing. Just perfect. Wheezy catches me smirking as I finger through the bills Smartass gave me for red vines, having heard that delicious admition, and gives a sigh; Rolling his eyes.

"Sorry to hear that... " He lies, because he knew very well what happened with Brick today, just like I did. Looking tired as ever, though especially by me right now (I'd know that tone in his broken voice anywhere. That tone is alllllll my fault. And I'm honoured), Wheezy gestures to the bartender fetching me Y/N's drink. "I could use a drink, too."

"Don't worry Y/N," I nudge her with my elbow, settling in close to her, and give a wink. "I will be the designated driver for us. Feel free to drink all the booze you like~ "

Wheezy taps the bar. "Make that two, will ya? 'Nd put it on his tab."

~

2 hours later, Y/N's completely drunk and Wheezy may have dragged her bar stool ever-so-subtly further from me and closer to him, but I am the one with all of her attention. I have her exactly~ where I want her.

I just need to get rid of el fumador, somehow, then-

"YOU," That voice is unmistakably familiar, and I immediately go stiff as a plank. "GODDAMN MORONS."

Oh, infierno. This is not good.

Y/N's eyebrow raises, turning in her seat and almost slipping off of it- if it weren't for Wheezy jumping forward and steadying her. I'm busy stringing a good excuse together in my head... but nothing is coming to me... "Is that Smartass?"

"Yep, looks like the jigs up," Wheezy tells her, turning to me meaningfully. He knows she won't remember anything he says, now. "Eh, Greasy?"

I dont say a word, avoiding his eye. I'm still desperately raking my brain for a good excuse-

"The- the jig?? What- "

They sell red vines in here?? I just stepped in to go to the bathroom?? I needed a glass of water?? No, no, no-

"Eh, don't worry about it doll. How about we get you a cab and send ya home? Where are yer shoes?"

By the time Smartass reaches us Wheezy has helped Y/N to get herself together (His arm around her waist to keep her from tripping and her shoes in his other hand), my chances with her tonight are successfully diminished, he's ready to take her to the door, and I've still got nothing. Smartass looks sharply at him, and he gives a solemn shake of his head. "I got nothin' after all that. Talk to lover boy."

As Wheezy takes Y/N away, Smartass slowly does turn to 'lover boy', me; A very violent look in his eyes, and I hold up a finger. As if to 'pause' him.

... Absolutely no excuse has come to mind. My head is completely blank. Smooth, in fact, like a leaf. And that look in the bosses eye is making my bladder feel weak. "... I plead the fifth- "

"YOU PLEA- You're gonna plead for the use of your legs back when I'm done with ya!! Get in the van. Get- Go- I'm not gonna tell ya twice!"

[callophelia-ailingamnemonic]

[ATWIAWL] Wisp name meaning - Part 1

Nye (Venti's secret identity)

The site I read said it meant "New Start"

This represents how this new identity is essentially a new start for Venti.

My bro and friend both chose Nye out of the long list of names I gave them because it reminded them of Bill Nye the Science Guy X))

Zhen (Zhongli's wisp)

The site I read said it meant "A Treasure" or "Precious"

This is a callback to how Zhen would leave Zhongli gifts before the two got close.

Sometimes, Zhen is affectionately nicknamed "Xiao Zhen", which means "Little Zhen" :))

Kaze no Seirei (Kabukimono's wisp)

Literally just translates to "Wind Spirit"

If the people of Tatarasuna named Kabukimono "Wandering Eccentric", the chances of them giving Kaze an actual name are severely slim.

When they still lived with Ei, Ei just called them Barbatos since she believed that Kaze was his ghost.

Ghostie (Nahida's wisp)

Nahida gave them that name because they looked like a little ghost in their wisp form :))

I might have mentioned this before, but Nahida originally gave me the vibes of someone who'd give proper names, until I remembered that she signed Wanderer up into the championship under the name "Hat Guy"

The name works especially well with the lore I have for Ghostie XDD

Duchesse Imène (Furina's wisp)

The site I read said it meant "She who has faith" or "Believer"

It's meant to reference how although they have no idea what's going on, they decided to support Furina no matter what.

I wanted Imène to have a full title that would match the Salon Solitaire but couldn't figure out what role they would have to Furina in the eyes of the Fontaine people. My pals and I were thinking of some kind of general, or a bodyguard, or an informant or something, and then we had the brilliant idea of making Imène some kind of advisor, like, a king's advisor, but because they don't have official titles, we just went with Duchess in French (Which is literally just Duchess with an 'e' at the end lol)

The Velikaia Knazhna of Snezhnaya, Karine (The Tsarista's wisp)

The site I read said it meant "Beloved Friend"

It is meant to represent how Karine is now the Tsaritsa's closest companion, and essentially her new younger sibling after Venti "died".

The title "Velikaia Knazhna" means "Grand Princess", but translates to "Grand Duchess" in English. It is a title given to the daughters and male-line granddaughters of the Emperor or Empress' of Russia... huh... I don't know why, but before I reread the site I got the info from, I originally thought it was the title given to the younger sibling of a Russian ruler... which... would probably just make them a Prince/Princess huh?

Should I change Karine's title to Knazhna' Krovi Imperatorskoy? It means "Princess of the Blood Imperial" and was a title that was implemented in Russia in the year 1885 to reduce the amount of Grand Princes and Grand Princess by giving the male-line descendants of the Emperor of Russia a title that would distinguish them from those of noble Russian families titled prince/princess.

Why does Karine present as more feminine and bear feminine titles? It's for the Tsaritsa's peace of mind, trust me.

[tinytinybumblebee]

hello!!! You know what I'm here foooorrrrr!! Baby Bill!! (featuring baby Joel!!) :D

So, I saw this video about this bunny and duck duo being together and eating strawberries, and it immediately reminded me of tiny Joel and Bill 😭😭

Like, it would be a nice, summers day, and Frank decided it was perfect to go outside for the day!! So, he let both Joel and Bill wonder around for a bit (probably pre-preparing with sunscreen and hats for each of the boys ;w;), letting them touch the grass and look at all the pretty flowers that Frank and big Bill have grown for the past few years.

Now, Frank had been lucky to find so many strawberry seeds out in the open!! (he checked to see if it had anything like with the infected on them first ofc) And he just had to use them all!! So, most of them had been just ripe and perfect to use for jams and such!! But there are two lil guys outside too... and I KNOW they both like strawberries so much (more Joel than Bill probably, but let's just say they both do equally :>) And you know what happens when you leave a favorite fruit/food out in the open with a little around...

So Joel just sees these big, red, beautiful looking strawberries and gasps, 'this is that yummy fruit i've had before!! :0 And there's so many!!' And just stares at them XD Bill just looks over to him, and just see what's happening and shakes his head 'we can' eat those, Frankie gonna get mad at us!!' Bill (probably) says, but Joel just shakes his head 'no, he's not!! an' look! there's so many of em!! :00'

And before you know it, Joel already has a few strawberries stuffed in his mouth, with some in his hands XDDD and his face n hands just get all covered in red!! And Bill's just panicking a bit, thinking that there gonna get in trouble!! Buuuuuut, Joel puts a strawberry in his mouth, and he forgets what he was thinking about XD

Frank is a bit suspicious on why it's so quiet... he had been attending to some sunflowers, while the boy's had been playing a bit (but ofc keeping a close eye on them both :>), and just knows there might be a little mistif going on... so he walks around, starting to hear little giggles and babbles as he does, and immediately sees two lil guys, giggling with red on their hands and face... and strawberries in their mouths...

At least it wasn't that many, but Frank was a lil disappointmented XDD But he just walks over to the two and kneels in front of them, putting on a whole act with gasping and everything XD 'oh my goodness! who has been eating my strawberries??? some little critters must've come along without me noticing!! have you both seen them??'

And Joel and Bill and just giggling, shaking their heads, and Frank just coos a bit, finding how cute they both are... even with the messy faces and hands- he'll clean them up soon though XD and then he just gasps again 'have you two been eating my strawberries??? how could you! oh my heart has been broken!! now come here!!' And he just starts to tickle the two's sides, making them both squeal and giggle loudly ;w;

Later on, all three of them all get back inside the house after a very long day of playing outside, and both boy's have been washed and cleaned, and now both sleeping together on the floor (with that big ol quilt :D), just arms wrapped around each other (with Bill making soft sleepy coos :>), and Frank may or may not be snaking on a few strawberries himself as he makes some homemade jam :]

The strawberry bandits!!!!! Oh my GOSH😭💖💖💖

Just the two little lads, sitting on a blanket (because Bill probably doesn't like the feeling of prickly grass and, Joel would probably be ripping the grass out so, it best to have them seated on a blanket for everyone's sake xD) out in the garden, enjoying the warmth of the sun and the distant humming of Frank as he's tending to the sunflowers.

Of course, strawberries are veryyyyy tantalizing, they're bright red, kinda shaped like hearts and, they're growing on the ground, the exact place tiny one's can easily get to!!!

Bill's fear of getting in trouble is instantly gone the moment he's got the sweet taste of strawberry in his mouth- then it's the duckling and bunny, happily eating their berries!!

Oooh Frank is so sad at this moment that he doesn't have a camera, to capture this moment of his two boys just, giggling, covered in the strawberry juices/bits xD♡♡♡ He joins in on their giggles when Bill explains they're just trying to help!! There were sooo many berries, too many for Frank to carry!!

All cleaned up and tuckered out from their afternoon playing, Joel and Bill are fast asleep, probably dreaming of strawberry fields while Frank occasionally peeks into the living room to check up on them-

And for dessert, that night is strawberry jam on toast💖🍓

[neonross]

Dhjejeene y'all are getting so ahead of bill already getting out of the bubble, XDD

Like I said before, It's just a possible routes, ford wouldn't be so careless that he wouldn't have a back up/or a plan if bill does ever get out

And he wouldn't be INSTANTLY powerless as soon as bill gets out-

I’m sure you’ve already answered this, but in the Dreamcaptors au, does Bill…still kinda have feelings for Ford? Because, I mean, he willingly sat and did nothing but watch a barber pole spin upwards for 2 billion years according to the Book of Bill. It’s not the *longest* amount of time he’s been stuck. And, in a way, Ford became a monster and companion like Bill wanted… And, aside from the power he gains from him, does Ford still have an attachment to Bill?

actually, no one has asked this yet,

I'd say in a way he does, he has *feelings of betrayal*- as if he wasn't the one messing with the guy for his own gain- first! ahaha

he could handle being stuck for a really long time, but the constant power zapping and mockery from ford is bound to get annoying for him, he got what he wanted in a way, yes- but unfortunately the circumstances were not up to his favor

mm I'd say, he kinda does? even though his perception of bill has changed instead of seeing him as this higher being his muse he can't reach,

now he sees bill as a more tangible creature, the power certainly has shifted in this dynamic-

[HPHM] Merula Snyde Playlist

suggested by @nikyiscreepy // featuring Camren Bicondova as Merula

   “Rotten to the Core” ~ Descendants

“Something For Nothing” ~ Rush

“What is This Feeling?” ~ Wicked the musical

“There Are Worst Things I Could Do” ~ Grease

“Someone Like You” ~ Jekyll and Hyde the musical

“I’m the Best (explicit)” ~ Nicki Minaj

Merula Snyde -- the self-proclaimed “most Powerful Witch at Hogwarts” in her day -- was Carewyn Cromwell’s main rival at school. From the moment they first collided, it was clear that the mean-spirited bully and the overly sensitive outcast were going to butt heads, regardless of them both being Sorted into Slytherin. Carewyn hated how cruel Merula could be and how she felt the need to put others down just to make herself feel strong. Merula hated Carewyn for how saintly she acted, and as they got older and Carewyn became more popular and put on more of a stoic, paragon affect, she only resented “Little Miss Perfect” all the more. To add insult to injury, Carewyn even ended up befriending Merula’s old friends, Tulip Karasu and Barnaby Lee, and they both looked happier in Carewyn’s company than they’d ever been in Merula’s previously. When Patricia Rakepick entered the picture, however, Merula thought she’d finally found someone she could look up to and who actually believed in her. Rakepick saw her potential and encouraged it, and for the first time in Merula’s life, she felt her bitterness and anger about how much life had always screwed her over starting to dissipate. She saw things more rationally and saw how letting her old rivalry with Carewyn was potentially preventing her from using her old rival’s knowledge to her advantage -- and so before going to the Portrait Vault, Merula approached Carewyn about what to expect. The two ended up finding some common ground half-way through -- wanting to break the Portrait Curse -- and even ended up coming to a truce. After Rakepick’s betrayal in the Portrait Vault, however, Merula was very badly hurt, and as was typical for the “Most Powerful Witch at Hogwarts,” when she was in pain, she shut down and lashed out. She didn’t need help and she didn’t need friendship -- all Merula wanted was to make Rakepick suffer for having actually made her think that someone might understand her and that they cared. But when Rakepick returned and ended up murdering Rowan Khanna, Merula once again was shaken to her core -- for at the deepest part of herself, however much she claimed she didn’t care about or need anyone else, she truly didn’t want anyone to die. She did care about them: even if what Rakepick said about her being “no one’s favorite” was true, it didn’t change the fact that Merula herself did have favorites...people she was terrified of losing. And one of those people -- amazingly -- was her old rival, Carewyn Cromwell, who after Rowan’s death had come very close to committing suicide by denying herself food and drink and eventually shutting herself up in a closet with no intention of ever leaving it again. Merula was one of those, alongside Ben Copper, Bill and Charlie Weasley, and Carewyn, who was most instrumental in the formation of the Circle of Khanna. Despite Merula and Carewyn’s baggage making it difficult for them to ever call each other their friend, the two Slytherin witches nonetheless learned how to work together toward a common goal, and they understand each other in some ways better than any friend could, as neither of them feels much of an urge to pull any punches around each other. Whenever Carewyn needs someone who can challenge or “check” her, Merula is the best person to do it, and of course Carewyn’s high standards and ideals push Merula in a similar way. They truly have become better people around each other, simply by having to interact at all. As adults, the two ex-rivals will even get together for a cup of coffee now and again, when Merula’s passing through London between Cursebreaking expeditions.

@firefletch reblogged my Wingfeather Falls time travel post and got me thinking about it again and I realized something hilarious:

Bill has absolutely no idea who Artham is.

Like, Bill knows everyone from Gravity Falls but Artham’s not from Gravity Falls, he’s not even from Earth, and the only time he even ever visits it is after Bill’s been defeated, so yeah, Bill has no clue who he is. He probably could figure out that Artham’s from another world but that’s about it.

Which means you end up with a scene like this:

*Artham walks in while Ford’s possessed* Bill, internally: ?!? Who the heck is that? Why don’t I know who that is?? Okay, okay, play it cool he probably can’t tell you’re here- Artham, suspiciously: Ford are you alright? Bill!Ford: What? Oh, yes, of course I am, haha Artham:.... You’re being possessed aren’t you. Bill: ?!?! Artham: Wait are you Bill? Bill: ?!?!?!?! Artham: Well this isn’t good. Bill: WHO THE HECK ARE YOU?! Artham, raising an eyebrow, wings spreading out behind him dramatically: Your worst nightmare. *punches Bill in the face*

I guess I'm gonna make you work by asks bby! 😏 Please explain me more about Alex Lore with that Villain, why?? Is because her dad?! I need answers tell me more about the stories in between.

Oh I actually have to thank you for reminding me that I have this idea that I want to create, because I always forgot things and in the end I never finish what I wanted to start XDD

Soooo yeah the main villain is Michael

Also sorry that I took time responding to your ask! But I had to organize all my ideas and make them presentable XDD

It all started when Isabella and Michael got "divorced" in 1981. They actually didn't do it because before they could've do it Michael vanished from Isabella and Alex's life and went away with Isabella's best friend named Stefania (the one that he cheated Isabella on).

Stefania and Michael moved to Europe where they started a new life. They were financially unstable at the beggining, so they started to struggle a lot in living and finding a job.

They arrived at a point where they had to go away from their little home because they couldn't afford to pay the bills, so they started living on the streets. Obviously their life went from bad to terrible, having days in which they didn't even saw a crumble of bread.

When one day, in the winter of 1984 an old man came up to their new little hidden spot under a bridge. He seemed like them: a poor man that just wanted something to eat. In fact, the old man asked them for just 1€, hoping that his old-self would've provoked some type of pity in the two adults.

But that didn't happened. They instead started cursing and throwing rocks at the poor man, shouting how they were too in a shitty situation and that they were barely able to buy a single candy and just because he's old doesn't mean shit to them.

The old man fell on the ground with his butt, looking at them in a horrified way. While they continued screaming at him saying to go away, the old man started smirking slowly.

Now Stefania and Michael are the one looking at him in a almost horrified way, because he just seemed so creepy. So Michael decided to finish this once and for all. He quickly grabbed a heavier rock from the ground and then he threw it on the old man's head.

But something strange appeard from the old man that protected him from the rock, something that just Michael and the old man were able to see. It was a stand, but Michael didn't know nothing about those.

So he started walking slowly backwards, Stefania confused as well. The old man saw the expression of Michael's face when he saw his stand: Bad To The Bone.

"That expression is telling me that you saw my stand" the old man said, slowly standing up from the ground.

"Your what!? What the hell was that- GO THE FUCK AWAY!!" Michael said, while Stefania hid behind his leg. The old man brushed off some dirt from his pants with his hands, then he started looking at them once again.

"My stand, that ghost-like thing that came from my body. It's name is Bad To The Bone, I would like to know how yours is named, sir" Michael stared at him with a confused expression and didn't respond. The old man was patient, but that doesn't mean that he wasn't aggressive. So with his stand, he took Michael from his shirt and made him approach him forcefully.

"So you are telling me that you are totally oblivious of the incredible capacity that you have? That's a shame, but I can help you with that" the old man said, starting to put him slowly on his feet to the ground. Michael was speechless, but what did this old man said? An "incredible capacity that you have"? Does that mean that he has that thing too? How does he know?

"I know that you are confused, sir- oh but where are the manners? My name is Bratumil Lewandowski, may I know your name sir? Even yours, miss" Bratumil said while putting his hands behind his back. Stefania and Michael were hesitant at first, but Michael wanted to know more about this capacity of his.

"Michael Williams, her name is Stefania Esposito"

Michael said with an unreadable expression on his face. Bratumil smiled a little "I know that you want to know more about this ability, but this is not why I came here. Honestly I didn't even expected that one of you had a stand" he said, still with his smile planted on his face.

"I came here looking for desperate people like you that could've helped me in my business in exchange of money... a lot of them" Bratumil said, while taking notes of the adults face that lighted up a little. "How much are we talking about?" Stefania said, now standing up too.

"Mmhhh, well in the beggining you won't get as much money as you'll get in the future, but we're talking from 5.000 euros to 30.000 euros, even more. It depends on the person. And you'll have that amount of money as soon as you finished with your mission" Bratumil said, looking from Stefania to Michael.

"Mission? What kind of job is this?" Michael said crossing his arms, while Bratumil let out a little chuckle. "It's a very dear job to me, passed from generation to generation and nobody has yet discovered us. But let me tell you why you would be perfect for this job, Michael" Bratumil said and he put his hand on Michael's shoulder.

"You're desperate, that's all I have to know. The best thing of this is that you are capable of hurting, even killing people because of it. Surely you didn't want to kill me for taking my money, because you thought that I didn't have any of that, but out of pure frustration. There isn't such a best thing like that for this job" Bratumil said, looking deeply in Michael's eyes that once again didn't show any emotions.

"I'm not so sure that you have money though" Michael said, suspicious of it being all some sort of joke. Bratumil took a small briefcase that was under his big coat and then he showed it to them, opening it and revealing a lot of money in there. Stefania and Michael were speechless, but before they could've done anything, Bratumil immediately closed the briefcase and put it again under he's coat.

"B-but wait, sir, are you telling me that he has to k-kill people??" Stefania said a little bit panicked. "Stefania, my dear, why are you so scared? You know that shouting like that and throwing rocks could've killed an old man like me!" Bratumil said laughing a bit "If you want to you can join this job too, but I don't want a pretty lady like you get her hands dirty of blood when she can just stay home and enjoy herself and her new rich life" Bratumil said, smirking at Stefania that was now smiling imagining her new life in a big home full of new things.

"Are you hiring hitmans or something?" Michael said, making Bratumil look at him again, smile vanishing from his face "Yes, I am. But you know, I want my people to enjoy this job, not only for the money that they get. That's why I think that you are perfect for this: you can both get money and enjoy seeing people suffer"

"But I've never said that I enjoy killing people" Michael said, frowning more than he was doing before. Bratumil took his hand from Michale's shoulder and puts it again behind his back along his other hand. "Not yet" he simply said

"Are you assuming that my boyfriend is a crazy murdered that enjoys his job!?" Stefania said, snapping out of her little world. Bratumil looked at her, slightly annoyed "Dear, he didn't even hesitate when he threw that heavy rock on me. I'm sure that he hasn't a problem killing other people, especially for money. And I'm sure that the more people he'll kill, the more fun he'll find in doing that. Because he'll feel powerful" with the last sentence, Bratumil looked at Michael with a mischievous smile.

Michael's eyes widened a bit and he stood there, staring at Bratumil in the eyes when he continued repeating that last word in his mind. Oh how he wanted to be powerful once again. He missed that feeling since he left his family, where he was able to command as he like.

His family... Alexandra... she has a stand too, he saw it one time.

"Wait, about that ability... I think that my daughter has it too. I remember seeing it accidentally when she was in her room playing with her friend" Michael said, looking at the ground trying to remember more of that scene "I didn't know what it was, but I thought that she might be possessed or some other things. I let it slide though, because I was really tired that evening and I thought that I was seeing things. In fact that was the only time that I saw it" Michael said now looking at Bratumil that was frowing.

"Oh? Do you have a daughter? Were she is now? Maybe she can join this job too" Bratumil said with a slight sarcastic tone in his voice. "I had that brat with another woman, I then went away from them because that little shit fucked up my ex wife's brain too much" Michael said with so much contempt in his tone and words. Bratumil raised an eyebrow at his words and then chuckled "Wow you really hate her, huh?"

"Yeah... I absolutely didn't want a child, but that bitch got pregnant somehow and she didn't want to abort it. She lied to me telling that she did it, but one day I didn't find her at home and then later on I discovered that she was at the hospital, giving birth to that brat. At that point I hoped that at least it was a boy, but it turned out to be a girl. I was so mad about the whole situation that I start hating those two. They were ruining my life, no... she's the one that ruined my life" Michael said, muttering the last sentence to himself while looking again at the ground, but Bratumil heard what he said.

"I'm assuming that 'she' is your daughter, hm?" Bratumil said with a little compassion in his eyes. "Yes" Michael said. "Tell me, you zooned out a bit at the last thing that I said about power and then you started rambling about your child. Did you had this feeling of power over her? Over your old family?" Bratumil said slowly to Michael, that moved his eyes from the ground to him.

Michael didn't say nothing thought, having the feeling that Bratumil had something more to say. "Think of it: she has your same power too, different from yours because there are more stand users out there. That means that you are not that special in the end...and not being special means no power" Bratumil said making an expression that said "that's obvious duh".

"I know where you want to end up" Michael said calmy. "You somehow seem to agree?" Bratumil said with a smug expression. "But what you're saying is a little bit inconsistent, isn't it? You're saying that I'm not powerful because there are other people with my same ability, but that means that you are not that 'powerful' too. Does it mean that I have to kill all of them, so also you, to gain power?" Michael scoffed at the end.

Bratumil shook his head while chuckling "Son, you're going in the wrong way. Being powerful means also having a lot of money, but you don't have any and I have a lot. Even if you join me and then stab me in the back when I'm not looking, I assure you that you'll never find the money so throw that idea away. I'm not even sure of how many stand users are out there so killing all of them seems nearly impossible, but I'm just addressing to the ones that are searching for us" Bratumil said in a serious tone.

"I might as well just turn you in and take the money that the police will give me as a price, since you sound like a dangerous organization that has existed for a long time" Michael said frowning more. Bratumil laughed more "Oh Lord listen to this fool's words!" he said while trying catch his breath.

Michael raised his eyebrow and Stefania just looked at him more confused than she was before. Bratumil then wiped off a tear and immediately started Michael's with a threatening expression "Think again of that and you won't be able to live on this planet again"

"And what can a old man like you do to me? Using his ghost to protect his limp ass?" Michael said like he was trying to challenge him. "I will indeed use my stand, but after I'll use it on you you won't be joking anymore-" Bratumil said while a pigeon landed near them creating a sound with its wings.

Bratumil looked at it, making Michael and Stefania look too. Bratumil then raised his hand and with a snap of his finger, the poor pigeon's bones started to break making some of them get out of its feathered and now bloody body. "-because you won't even be able to think" said Bratumil lowering his hand and looking at the two adults in front of him.

Stefania was about to throw up and Michael just had a shocked expression. "Did you do that!?" Michael said snapping his head towards Bratumil and pointing at the pigeon. "Impressed?" He said with a smug look. Michael slowly lowered his hand and started sweating a bit, putting the dots together and realizing that what happened to that pigeon could easly happen to him at any second. He doesn't have a chance with him. He has his stand, yes, but he didn't even know the existence of that until this old man came to them.

But if he said to him that he wouldn't tell the police, he could've just not believe him and kill him anyway. "Look Michael, I didn't came here to hurt any of you. I came here because I actually wanted to help you, also because I need you to be in my organization." Bratumil said relaxing his expression and once again putting his hands behind his back. He then turned his back to them and started walking a bit and looking at the river that constantly flowed under the bridge. He then sighed.

"My son was supposed to have my place after I die, but he died not so long ago in a car crash. He was my only son, so beside him I don't have anyone to give my place and inheritance. And if I don't have a successor, then all of the organization will fall. But I don't want this to happen" Bratumil squeezed his hands behind his back after he said that last sentence in a frustrated tone.

"I have my allies that could take his place in the future, but my son was just oh so perfect for that role. The others are just too much or are just there for the money, not caring less of who they're killing. But you Michael," Bratumil said turning again to Michael "you are like him. You're perfect. You have demonstrate to me that you don't get fooled easly and I can sense in you a strong... will. And power. And there with all of us you'll be able to show us your abilities" Bratumil said with determination in his tone.

"Are the others stand user too?" Asked Michael while crossing his arms. "Not all of them, the others are just professional in killing people" Bratumil said. "I'm sure you'll get along with them very well" he then said with a slight smile.

Michael stayed silent for some seconds, then he made some steps towards Bratumil "So you have this organization that existed for a long time and it is an organization of hitmans. Why?" Michael said wanting to know more of the story.

"Well it's simple: my family generation from when it started until now grew up killing people and found other people out of the family tree that does that too. I must say that we have a big superiority complex, but not just that: it's not that we kill random people, we kill the lees of this planet. Most of them, if not all of them, are rich people so after we kill them, we take their belongings and money. We don't have anything against reach people since, y'know we are part of that piece of cake, it just happens that those lees are rich. Then we started taking requests from other people that hired hitmans, so we also started killing people that didn't have nothing to do with us. But this is our job afterall. Now about the superiority complex: we like to feel powerful, so this is also another reason of why we just kill other powerful people, because in killing the weakling there isn't any soddisfation. Some of our members are so murderous that don't care about that though" Bratumil said wispering a bit to himself the last part. He then cleared his throath and stared at Michael.

"Why did you pretend to be a poor man when you came to us?" Michael asked. "Well I had to see if you were kind enough to sacrifice your little money for an old man like me. If you were, then I wouldn't let you join my organization. But luck was on my side today and yours too. You two will became rich in no time" Bratumil said swinging his hand from Michael to Stefania pointing at them.

Michael thought for a bit, he then remembered the thing that they were talking before "You suggested to kill my daughter-" "Oh please don't tell me that you feel pity for someone that ruined your life" Bratumil interrupted Michael before he could've said anything more. Michael remained for a second with his mouth hanging out, before closing it and exhale through his nose.

"Obviously not, I was just wondering if that was still in the offer" Michael said with a smirk on his face. Bratumil laughed soundly and patted Michael's shoulder, happy that in the end he accepted the offer to join his organization "Well son welcome to Przerażenie!"

After that, two people appeard from nowhere making Michael and Stefania jump a bit. "Don't worry, these two are some of my allies: Adeline and Jan!" Bratumil presented the two young people to the other older couple.

"Awwww boss! We heard what you said about uss!!" Adeline said crossing her arms and pouting. "Yeah that wasn't pretty nice if you ask me! What do you mean we are too much?? I know that you are old and you probably forgot that we were here and invisible, but that doesn't explain why you think of that!" Jan said, putting his arm around his twin sister's shoulders. Bratumil looked at the two young adults, shaking his head a bit "You two especially would ruin my organization for your absurd killing instinct!" Bratumil said, putting then a hand on his head making a little slap-face.

"Heh, I guess you're right boss~~" Adeline said, opening a portal with her stand. "Wow what's that?? It looks like a portal!" Stefania said. "Wait is she supposed to see that?" Michael asked Bratumil that looked at him with a smile "Oh son you have still have to learn about stands. I'll just say that there are some type of these that people can see, to put it short" and after that, Jan pushed all of them into the portal that lead them to their meeting place and in the end the portal vanished in thin air.

After that, Michael and Stefania had what they initially wanted: money, food and a house. A big one too, hidden between some mountains where all the Przerażenie members lived together.

At the beginning of Michael's hitman career, he just killed normal people requested from outsiders, becoming more and more good at his new job. In the meantime he also practiced with his stand that managed to apper with Bratumil's help. Michael named his stand Back In Black.

After two years, in 1985, Bratumil died of old age and as said before, Michael took his place and became the boss of Przerażenie. In those years, there were still stand user that wanted to stop their organization, but always ended up killed. But they always had a backup, so other stand users and family members that tried to stop the organization. But like their old allies, they were always the one to lose. It was always difficult to them because all the bosses from the organization, had always an immense power. In this case, Michael was the most powerful one, having the ability to slow time.

Przerażenie continued to exist until 2004 and everything was going smooth for them. Michael kinda forgot about Alexandra, because she wasn't a threat and he had other things to do.

Always in that year, when Alexandra was at home cleaning and Jotaro was at his last day of his job trip, it arrived an email from the SWF on Jotaro's computer. Alex saw the notification while cleaning Jotaro's office and decided to open it.

The email was about of how the foundation found this dangerous organization of hitmans named Przerażenie that had a man named Michael Williams as the leader and then a photo of him. The was no doubt, that was Alexandra's father. She was shocked, she didn't know that her biologic dad was-- a crazy motherfucker with a stand. Well, she for sure hated him since she was little but she didn't know that he was capable of doing something like that!

Alexandra read the rest of the email with her heart that skipped some beats here and there. She then arrived at the part where the email talked about a secret group of stand users that wanted to stop that organization and that it decided to join the SWF to get its help. Alexandra immediately called the one that sended that email to tell them that she would've joined that group too. The leader was her father afterall and she didn't want to let other people deal with him, but since they probably already organized everything with the foundation, she couldn't do much if not join them.

She didn't want Jotaro to know about this, because she knew that he would've gone with her if she did. She knew how work was tiring for the poor man and that he was almost rarely at home, so that was another reason for not telling him: he needed a break. So instead, she called his boss telling him to give him a week off, because she knew that he worked hard especially in this period. She also told his boss to tell him that it was a gift from him and not his wife.

Jotaro's boss surprisingly accepted, because he knew that Jotaro was a very hard-working man, so he guessed that a week off with his family didn't hurt him. Also because he did most of his job for that period and the rest of it could've waited.

When Jotaro turned home the day after, he told her that his boss gave him a week off and that they could've spend that week together. Alexandra sadly told him a lie about that in his week off, she had to go on a trip with her class and that she couldn't not go because she offered to accompany them and that there wasn't anyone that could've take her place and it was all already settled.

Jotaro was sad about the news, but Alexandra assured him that he would have fun nonetheless with their children. Jotaro smiled a little for that, but he was still sad that his wife couldn't spend her deserved time with him, because she always told him at the phone that she misses him and that she'll wait patiently for him. He also knew that her too was a hard-working teacher and mother, but he couldn't do nothing about it.

But he still did something. Since he returned home in the early morning that day, it meant that they still had the entire day and night ( (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ) together, since she told him that she had to go tomorrow afternoon. So, he told Luis to look after Jolyne and that they could've went to uncle Kak and auntie Yaya for the night. Luis and Jolyne gladly accepted because they loved those two. So it was all organized: Jotaro and Alexandra passed their time together without interruptions and the next day she went to the SWF to know more about that group and all the mission in general.

She met her group and then they all started traveling from America to Poland, where the Przerażenie Organization was settled.

Okay so this technically is all of it, idk if my future self will change something of it because I think that it is pretty acceptable as a plot?? Idk, I sure hope so XD but I'm kinda okay with how it turned out. As I said before, I'm no professional writer, but this time I tried making a bit of dialogues. It still sucks at how it is written tho HAHAHAH But as always I hope that it is understandable 😌😌

I dind't include yet the group's characters because I have no idea of how much there'll be and about their stands, I'll work on in in the future :)

Thank you for the ask Fran! 💖💖

I hope that you all will have a wonderful day/night💫

[carewyncromwell]

Interestingly Carewyn's brother Jacob Cromwell started at Hogwarts in the Marauders' and Snape's fifth year (even in the game's canon, if you do the math, Jacob would've had to have been at school at least briefly with the Marauders), so in my canon, Jacob did know the Marauders in passing and vice-versa. Severus Snape even ended up teaching Jacob Cromwell for a fraction of a year until Jacob got expelled and found him completely insufferable not as much as Jacob's roommate Gilderoy Lockhart, but even so XDD. I also headcanon Jacob Cromwell joining the Order of the Phoenix and getting to know both Sirius and Lupin better through that as well. ^.^

But yeah, refocusing on your question, though...I admit, it would've been a lot of fun setting our game's storyline in the 70's! I reckon the mystery would've also been a bit darker since if Voldemort was still around, it would be very logical for people to presume R has connections to Voldemort. It could've also given us all more opportunity to get to know James Potter, Lily Evans, Regulus Black, and pre-betrayal Peter Pettigrew the way the actual game gives us the chance to get to know Bill and Charlie Weasley...and yeah, that would be pretty awesome!

I think one of the biggest changes I would've had to make to my storyline if the game was set in the 1970's is Jacob and Carewyn's age gap. In my canon, they're born eight years apart and as a result Carewyn barely remembers her father Evan and ends up seeing Jacob more like a father figure than him. It also makes it so they never attend school together, though I do have Jacob take his NEWTs alongside Carewyn after he's freed from the Portrait Vault and R is defeated. Jacob and Carewyn attending school around the same time, though, THAT would be incredibly interesting. If Carewyn was in the same year as the Marauders, Jacob, Duncan, and Olivia could've been in the same year as Patricia Rakepick, who's canonically about four years older than the Marauders. (Oh geez, I'm imagining Jacob/Duncan/Olivia having to butt heads with Rakepick while dealing with the Vaults the way MC did with Merula and I'm laughing.) I could also see Carewyn bonding more with Jacob's boy best friend Duncan in this scenario and possibly helping counsel him with his feelings for Jacob, and on the flip side, I could see both Jacob and Duncan going in protective-big-brother-mode around Carewyn more than once. XDD Carewyn would also have to grapple more with being in Jacob's shadow a bit too with him actively being there and constantly running academic circles around her with little effort, rather than her just having to fight back against his bad reputation. Still, Carewyn would love having her brother around when she was so lonely a lot of the time back at home, and Jacob would be over the moon sharing all of this amazing magic with his sister. I could even see Jacob training Carewyn in Legilimency at Hogwarts himself if they were at school around the same time.

As for Carewyn's relationships with her classmates the Marauders, I definitely think she would've been the type to stand up for Peter Pettigrew more than once, the way she does for Ben Copper in her canon. I also could see Carey-Bear putting both James and Sirius into detention on more than one occasion and sassing their faces off if they tried to talk back. James and Carewyn would also be active rivals for at least one Quidditch match, since both of them are Chasers, one for Gryffindor and the other for Slytherin!! >D Of those in the Marauders' generation, I could see Carewyn getting on best with Remus Lupin, Lily Evans (fellow redhead!!), and Andromeda Black, and Horace Slughorn would also have actively recruited both Cromwell siblings into his Slug Club instead of just Jacob.

As for Snape...even if in Carewyn's canon where Snape's her Head of House, they eventually come to an understanding -- and even if Carewyn and Snape would be dormmates in such a scenario and I could definitely see Carewyn sticking up for Snape the way Lily did if a fight between him and James was as one-sided as the Snape's Worst Memory incident...yeah, I really don't see Carewyn liking a young Snape very much at all. Even if she did ever find out how rough his home life was, Carewyn would hate Snape's "Death Eater" friends, and she'd be super turned-off by his attitude toward Muggles and eventually Muggle-borns (*side-eyes Snape calling Lily a Mudblood in the heat of anger beadily*). Carewyn's mother Lane left her abusive family to find happiness in the Muggle World and raised both Carewyn and Jacob in it alongside their Muggle father. However much both Carewyn and Jacob were actively bullied by their Muggle peers, Lane still raised them to love and respect the Muggle World, not to ignorantly write it off as inferior, so Jacob and Carewyn love Muggle music, books, and technology, same as they do their counterparts in the Wizarding World. Carewyn would undoubtedly be an oddball in her house of Slytherin the way Andromeda Black was if she was in Slytherin house in the 70's, considering how many Slytherins in that generation ended up joining the Death Eaters. And yeah, Carewyn in all timelines would be a Prefect, so if she had any inkling that Snape was behind spells like Sectumsempra, she would've been pretty damn unforgiving, Slytherin or no.

Hphm fans, severus fans, and marauders era fans, i have a great question for all of you

How different would the story go if our Mc and the cursed vaults were actually present during the marauders era? Like, what if our character was in the same year as the marauders and discovering the cursed vaults at the time along with making the quidditch team, being popular and becoming a prefect?

What would you all do with that? What would be your story, your pairings, your friends, your direction for your mc?

I need to know.

10 and 24 for Douxilly? :D

NGHHHH THANK YOU BAABBB!!! I love these, please feel free to send more! Another long one oooff xDD Enjoy! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

10. - Who drives? Cooks? Does the handiwork? Cleans? Pays the bills? Handles the public?

Douxie drives them to where they need to go, whether car or his motorcycle. I just imagine him taking Illy on joyrides on his motorcycle as a date. Just driving them to a nearby clearing to watch the sunset maybe.

Illy is a pretty good cook, possibly due to having to be forced to do a lot by her mother at a young age but also from helping the maids and cooks in Camelot in her free time. I honestly, do believe Douxie is possibly a klutz in the kitchen, maybe he's the guy that sometimes burns his food so he's stuck with take out and like...instant ramen packs for a while. Illy is definitely the one who cooks but Douxie does like to help her when he can, cutting up vegetables or anything, really. Plus, oppurtunity for him to be sneaky and wrap his arms around her waist from behind while she cooks like, he wouldn't pass THAT up.

Handiwork? Well, Illy does know how to sew and she does that a bit more often after gaining her nymph wings, having to alter her green top and a few other shirts she already owned to have a low backs as to not squish them. I like to think she helped with the holes in Nari's beanie, maybe teaching Douxie some sewing while they altered it for the lil plant goddess.

Cleaning? It's a joint effort definitely, I see it, especially early on when they ran to the city with Nari, Douxie goes to get jobs so they can pay rent because.... Illy, having been in a floating castle for 900 years, would not have been a good choice to go get a job and earn money since she was still clueless about the evolved world of man. It upsets her that she can't help more in that regard so she does make an effort to do more around the apartment, cleaning, cooking and all that. But whenever Douxie gets home or has a free day, he definitely shares those responsibilities with her.

Douxie pays the bills. Maybe, Illy sits down with him while he does...so that she can learn from him but majority of the time, he handles paying the bills.

Handles the public.....I'm not too sure what that means XD I'm guessing who's more comfortable with like ordering or talking to people in public, I'd have to say Douxie.

24. - Any doubts about the relationship?

I think when it comes to doubts....

Illy's doubts is.....if she'll ever see Douxie again. Like, She loves him dearly, adores him but after dying once and brushing it off like it was nothing. She just wonders if it even matters... if her being there for him matters if he was going to go and sacrifice himself anyways.

If she was going to just end up losing him forever.

Of course, they do end up talking about it, Douxie does end up...understanding how much it hurt Illy to see that happen...how much it scares her and reassures her that, he's here.

He's here.

And not matter what happens next, no matter what sort of battles or torture he would have to endure, He would find a way back to her, no matter what.

He wasn't going to have her grieve him again and again, he was going to find a way back to her no matter how difficult it gets....because he loves her too much to ever let her go through that, grieving his death again.

Douxie's doubts, there is this thought in the back of his mind, if he was just dragging Illy down with him. If he was just putting her in danger by having her be with him,,, following him to protect Nari.

The fact that she was still fairly inexperienced in magic, that she still had a long way to go when it comes to defending herself, offensive magic, attacks.

That she had a long way to go before she could Master the magic she's learned from Morgana, from Nari,....from him.

He's scared.

Scared that he would end up losing her in the hands of the Arcane Order, that she would die and he wouldn't be able to protect her. That.... he would lose one of his oldest friends again....his love....that he would never be able to see her again if that happens.

He trusts her... trusts that she has what it takes to improve her magic skills, to be able to master her magic. To be able to wield her own staff one day.

But, sometimes, he feels deep down, that fear. He couldn't....lose her again... he already lost her once all those centuries ago, never knowing what happened to her or where she was.

He didn't want to lose her again.

She had so much to live for, to see and experience things that she never got to all those centuries ago..

In the end, he chooses to trust in her growing abilities ...even if he doubts sometimes if it was... a good idea to have her by his side. He loves her too much to lose her again.

10 Signs You’re Reading a Dyna Fic

Thanks to @homesteadchronicles for tagging me!

1. It’s long

As much as it irks me sometimes, I tend to write lengthy stuff. If it’s a one-shot, it’s long. If it’s a chaptered fic, you can bet I’ll pass the 100,000 word mark before the second act is even over.

Why does that happen? I have no idea >.< My story ideas always just tend to blow up, even if I start with the simplest concept, like “Wouldn’t it be cool if Character X had a job as Y?” My brain always likes adding more details, whether it’s for worldbuilding or for new situations the characters can get into.

2. It has an ensemble cast

As much as I admire stories with a single compelling protagonist, what I like even more is situating a protagonist into a web of other characters and defining their story by how those other characters’ on- or offscreen journeys interact with theirs.

In that sense I conceive some (but not all) of my stories as glimpses into a little community, where all main and side characters are affected by each other and have some sort of arc to complete, however small.

3. It hasn’t been updated in a while

I don’t like doing this either, I swear! But it’s a given fact that ever since I started college and entered a writing-heavy field, my energy for writing stories has thinned out. In 99% of cases it’s most definitely not because I’ve lost interest or given up. Rather it’s everything to do with my energy levels. Usually I have no idea when I’m going to be both free and in a mental capacity to write, so I don’t bother making a writing schedule I can’t keep. I just snatch those moments when they come by and start typing, first getting down the main ideas and leaving the editing and polishing for later.

Then of course I have to wait till that ‘later’ comes around... *shifty eyes*

4. Sentences are long and have semicolons

This is more the case for my old writing, but for a long time I had a tendency to write really complex sentences. Now when I look back on them, my head explodes and I manage to find dozens of ways of making things simpler and more pleasant to read.

I also use semicolons. I am sorry xDD Academic writing does that to you. Honestly I have no idea what else to do? Make the sentences shorter? Or just use a comma???

5. It’s biggest theme is either friendship or found family

Because those two are my absolute favorites :3 Even in my romance-focused stories, I like to describe how the characters’ interpersonal relationships change as a whole and how their experiences led them to a new sense of belonging. Stories about a character choosing to surround themselves with people who are better for them, or having to move on from people who aren’t, or deal with broken family/friendship bonds, are some of the most compelling to me because they reflect very real aspects of life.

6. Worldbuilding goes down to the mundane details

I love, love, love describing boring things. How the main character had to apply for their job, how they pay the bills, how a particular city is run. If it’s a story involving magic or spirituality, you can bet I’ll go into the nitty-gritty details of how that magic works, or at least how a particular user experiences it. Those details are like glitter to me - don’t go over the top, but sprinkle them here and there and your world’s logic and structure will shine.

7. It has a happy ending, or at least a bittersweet one

I don’t like ripping readers’ hearts in two ;; It’s been done to me enough! I might start out a draft with a character tragically dying, then eventually figure out a way for them to live and for the story to be five times better for it.

Same with endings. I might be cynical when I start a story and go ‘Yeah, this’ll end with them losing everything and having to realize how wrong they were, ha-ha’, then in the final draft I’ll inject a teensy bit more hope into it. Basically I always want to make sure that my main characters are in a better position at the end of the story than at the beginning. And however that ‘better’ might look, I’ll write it so that the reader can agree and believe that this is the case.

8. It has an outrageous premise

I write for fun, so... why not have fun? I’ll often get an idea that seems totally crazy to me, but it’s either so funny or entertaining that I have to write it. So I’ll take it absolutely seriously and find a way to make it work.

9. Characters feel their limits

A story’s no fun without conflict, and I love describing exactly what gets in my characters’ way and how. If I’m writing a character who’s a professional fighter, I’ll put them in a situation where they’re either partially incapacitated or up against someone who’s just as good as they are. I’ll have a stoic, self-reliant character who sails for a living suffer from debilitating seasickness, which makes for embarrassing situations and necessitates the help of his friend. I’ll have characters experience things that upset them and explore the ramifications of that event all throughout the story.

Which brings me to my last point...

10. Cause-and-effect stretch from the very first page to the last

If a character sprains their ankle when falling down in the first chapter, it will still be hurting in the second. Maybe even the third. Then in the second act, I’ll show them being extra observant of their surroundings and making sure they don’t fall again. Then in the final act they’ll defeat the villain by making them fall down in the exact same way. (Okay, this is oversimplifying, but you get my point).

Basically I’m a firm believer in Chekhov’s Gun. Only it’s not just one gun, it’s as many objects/events from the early point of the story as possible.

Tagging @bayalexison and anybody else who wants to do this! (No pressure, of course.) I'd love to see people’s answers!

[slashingdisneypasta]

Hopefully this isn't perceived as a request, but what do you think some Disney Villains favorite cuddling position would be?

Oooh, okay lemme see. Remember not all these characters are cuddlers XD So a lot may be left out. Also I myself do not like the idea of cuddling so its hard to imagine haha XD

Some key-cuddlers I can think of though...

Human!Bill Cipher: He likes your backs to be pressed against eachother late into the night because at that point he's still planning and thinking, so he's muttering to himself and lighting up and all that for ours after you've gone to sleep and he wants to be close to you but you don't want him bothering you. When he's done though he's definitely a big spoon, if only to tease you (; Get a good handful of your thigh, or tummy. You know, that good stuff.

Captain Hook: Of course he's a cuddler. He likes to have you buried in his chest at night, so he knows you're not going anywhere. He's a little possessive.

Clayton: Clayton likes to have you in someway against his chest. Like, he's laying on his back and you are using his chest as a pillow.

Don Karnage: Cuddles sustain him. Any kind of cuddles will do. he just gets sad- and comes straight to you. You're like his charger.

Evil Queen Grimhilde: SECRET CUDDLER. She just loves to be all tangled up with you, similar to Hook so she knows you cant get away in the night and also because she just cant get enough of your body. In a sexual and non-sexual way.

Gaston: He only hugs you when he's jealous, sorry. Or he wants to stake his claim. He'll have you perched on his lap in the middle of the tavern if he feels he must, and you don't slap him (But then again, depending on how jealous he is- that may not even stop him.)

Hades: He loves to have you sitting all comfy in his lap while e's doing Important Lord Of The Underworld Stuff like paperwork, and strategy. Its just an easy way to spend time with you when he's busy.

Hans: I think, like Hilde, he is a secret cuddler. The boy is touch starved to the max and turns to mush on the inside (because on the outside he's still heartless, of course) when you wrap your arms around him, or snuggle in his body in bed at night. He has a preference for you facing him when it happens.

Horned King: See Hades. Cant say his lap would be very comfy for you though XDD Maybe place a cushion down.

Jafar: Ehhhhhhh, any snuggles with him turn sexual...

Long John Silver: All. All of the cuddles.

Human!Lotso: Oh my god, he loves cuddles. You wouldn't expect him too after the 'abandonment', but its in his bones. So all sorts of huggles happen here. Happy hugs, sad hugs, angry hugs...

Maleficent: Power cuddles. She has to be in a position of 'power' (Like the big spoon or the bottom, on her back with your head on her chest or on her lap as she sits up) but she does find them quite lovely.

Mother Gothel: She used her cuddles as a manipulation tactic... sorry...

Oogie Boogie: He's more a hug man then a cuddle man.

Prince John: Like Don Karnage, you will need to give him lots of cuddles and affection when he gets all pouty and whiny in order to charge him up again; Console him. He requires these.

Prof Ratigan: He's open to being educated on this matter, but... its not really his thing. He prefers to waltz you, honestly!

Randall Boggs: Very similar to Hans, he doesn't want you two know he wants/likes snuggles, but he does want them. He just cant let you know, because he's really freaken touch starved, and he refuses to let anyone see he actually needs anything soft like that- which he doesnt.

Scar: OH MY GOD SUCH A CUDDLER. All together he's just very affectionate. Lots of kisses, lots of brushing up against you, lots of standing very close, and l o t s of PDA- and a good 90 percent of that is cuddling in front of the rest of the pride. It is part of his power claim, but also he just loves you. He just loves to be touching you.

Shan Yu: He's excuse is that its freezing outside and you two need to stay warm... now take off your clothes. Skin on skin contact is warmer. *Cough* In other words, like Jafar, many of Shan Yu's cuddles turn sexy. He at least wants to really tease you.

Shere Khan: Absolutely. He's down. Likes to sweet talk you while you cuddle so you go red.

Stabbington Brothers: Yes, they do... Patchy more so. He's not ashamed of wanting you in his sleeping bag with him. Sideburns on the other hand is a bit of a 'macho man' and doesn't want to admit he wants cuddles in a purely innocent way. But yeah... he does.

Steelbeak: Again, all.

Sykes: Loves to have his arm around you in the back of his limo, just talking quietly and enjoying the minutes you have alone together before the drive ends and he has to work again.

Syndrome: Again- like Hans and Randall.

Toon Patrol:

Greasy- Greasy is definitely a kisses over cuddles kinda guy but he can appreciate cuddles every now and then too.

Psycho- Hugs that feel more like restraints. You may bruise. He also can be super super gentle though- and there is no in between.

Smartass- AGAINNN, like Hans, Randall and Syndrome. Doesn't want to admit it but he does appreciate them.

Stupid- This boy will wrap his arms around you in the middle of the street and will not let go until he's filled.

Wheezy- If you're buried in his chest, you aren't inhaling the smoke that comes puffing outta his face like a steam train. He also likes it ^^ And he isn't afraid to admit it ^^

King Candy: Ohhh yep. Has his arm around your waist so much of the time.

Ursula: Her cuddles turn sexual too.

[tinytinybumblebee]

Hello! I'm back again with baby Bill!! (i'm sorry if it's annoying you with how many hcs I have 😭😭) And it's more stuff with regressor Bill and Joel! :D

So, one day tiny Joel and Bill are both playing happily together (with Frank and Tess supervision :>), babbling on about different cars and whatnot. But Bill's starting to get sleepy... (i swear tiny Bill would be such a sleepy baby boy, like he would only be awake for 1 - 2 hours before he's ready for a nap, when Joel can stay awake for like 4 or so hours) and he's just slowly rolling his cars, trying to understand what nonsense Joel is talking about, and his eyes fluttering a bit.

Frank notices this and goes over to the two and to just lightly tell Bill that its naptime, and honestly, Bill loves naptime, it's just so peaceful for him and he gets to curl up next to Frankie so- :]

Joel on the other hand, just gives a big ol whine and shakes his head, wrapping his arms around tiny Bill and being like 'no no!! no naptime! billy don' need it! my billy!! >:(((' while Bill is just drifting off and has his head leaned on Joel's XDD

Frank reassures tiny Joel that his lil guy needs a nap, 'cuz his much smaller than Joel and lil guys like Bill are constantly tired from playing so much! Joel just shakes his head again and tightly holds onto his lil brother, annnnd Bill is just trying to keep himself awake, and starts to drool a bit from how tired he is XDD

Frank sighs a bit, just patting Joel's head and looking over to Tess for help XDDD And ofc Tess just comes over and just tells her lil Jo-Jo that Bill is gonna need all that rest, or he's gonna get all cranky and sad!! And Joel doesn't like that his lil bro might get sad if he's up for too long... so he agrees that Bill has a nap... as long as he gets to stay with Joel XDDD

Both carers agree, not wanting Joel to start a tantrum by him not being close to his lil brother XDD So, Frank just grabs a big quilt blanket (that him and big Bill made a while back :>), and places it over the two tiny boys, and puts a binky in Bill's mouth so he can actually rest. And he does!! And now he's all cuddled up to Joel, who's quietly playing with his cars, cuz he doesn't want to wake up Bill and get him all fussy.

'He's really latched on to Jo, huh?' Tess says, chuckling a bit at the little guys. Frank gives a sigh, nodding a bit, but he smiles, relieved that Bill wasn't too fussy with not being able to sleep in bed.

'I guess so, it's like they just connected somehow...' Frank (probably) says, kinda amazed that Bill would be so up to having Joel as his friend (when we all know Joel and Bill both being big, they would both just pretend to hate each other and stuff XDD) but then again, it is tiny Bill so...

'Well, little's find other somehow little's, so.' Tess shrugs, ruffling Joel's hair a bit. And Frank just nods along, watching his lil man just sleeping peacefully beside Joel :D

(And that's how Joel became Bill's big brother XDD also Bill's nickname for Joel would be like 'Jo-Jo' or 'Jo' and Joel's would be 'Billy' or 'Bubba' :>)

Oh my goodness never apologize!!!!!! Receiving your mail has been the highlight of my day aaaa🥺💖💖💖💖💖💖💖!!!!

Joel not wanting Bill to leave is ADORABLE- he wants his lil brother to staaaay!! He's the only one who understands toy cars like him All while Bill is basically nodding off the entire time xD

Thankfully Joel understands fairly well when it comes to not wanting his sib to be sad/fussy without sleep! He doesn't like seeing Billy upset, so as long as he gets to stay close to him while Bill sleeps, Joel's a happy camper!

Oh my gosh- a biiig quilt Frank and Bill had worked on one winter to keep themselves busy! It's probably a nice yellow with blue patches/trimming- perfectly cozy for naptime and play time ;w;

It's definitely a bit of a surprise to Frank how close the two tiny ones have gotten (he was ready for Bill to cling to him anytime tiny Joel was there!) But when Tess mentions how tiny ones always seem to sorta magnetize towards one another/find eachother, it sorta makes sense♡

And aaaaa💖💖💖💖🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Fluff Alphabet: Carewyn/???

Okay, so I was tagged by @cursebreakerfarrier, @montaguehphm, AND @lins-hogwarts-mystery for this...but I have two current possible end-game ships for my girl, Carewyn Cromwell -- Carewyn/Chiara and Carewyn/Diego.

So I’m going to split it up like this -- italics will be for Carewyn/Chiara, bold will be for Carewyn/Diego. Maybe you guys can reply to this post with your thoughts about which ship you favor, after reading these over? LOL XDD

Tagging @thehogwartscursebakers​, @dat-silvers-girl​, @angellazull​, @samshogwarts​, @ariparri​, @hphm-brooke​ @drinkyoursoupbitch​ and any other HPHM players who wants to do this for their MC ships and hasn’t gotten tagged yet! xoxo

A: Attractive (What do they find attractive about the other?)

Carewyn has always been enamored of Chiara’s modesty, passion for Healing, patience, and unwavering kindness. Carewyn constantly feels like she has to work at being kind and forgiving, and it’s something that comes so easily to Chiara, even despite her horrible lot in life, and Carewyn loves that about her. Chiara was first attracted to Carewyn’s strong compassion, but later also fell in love with her courage and determination. Plus she also thinks she’s really friggin’ pretty and she can’t stop looking at her mouth whenever she’s talking *blush*. XD

Carewyn loves how steadfast Diego is, once he’s set his mind to something. Even though he seems like a flaky flirt, he’s actually very loyal to the people he cares about. Carewyn also loves how much fun he is to be around, and surprisingly -- even though she finds his flirting hilarious rather than swoon-worthy -- she does like Diego’s more sincerely romantic, sentimental side, such as when he wears one of her earrings so he can feel like she’s closer to him while they’re apart, or when he calls in to request a song for her on the Wizarding Wireless Network while she’s at work. Diego was first interested in getting to know Carewyn because he’d heard she was an amazing duelist (which he’ll always find hot as all get-out), and of course he thought she was rather pretty -- but what he actually finds most attractive about Carewyn isn’t her talent or her courage, but her laugh. Carewyn’s prone to mask her emotions a lot and she usually covers her mouth to try to hold in her laughter -- but Diego loves nothing more than when usually super-serious Carewyn is so happy that her cheeks flush pink, her sparkling eyes flutter closed, and she just cannot stop giggling.

B: Baby (Do they want a family? Why/Why not?)

Chiara is intimidated by the thought of having a family because of her lycanthropy. Carewyn doesn’t want biological children, and is very happy simply caring for her adopted “son,” Erik Apollo.

Diego would like a family, but isn’t picky about what kind. He’s perfectly content with treating Carewyn’s ward Erik as his son, since Carewyn doesn’t want to bear children of her own. He’s also dotes on his friends’ kids just as much as Carewyn does.

C: Cuddle (How do they cuddle?)

Chiara really likes cuddling my poor touch-starved child, but is very shy about initiating any kind of intimacy, since she knows she gets more out of cuddling and sex than asexual!Carewyn. Fortunately Carewyn can usually sense when Chiara really desires closeness and so will often initiate cuddle time for her. When the two do cuddle, it usually consists of either Carewyn sleeping behind Chiara with her arm around her waist and her head on her shoulder, or with the two leaning against each other and holding hands in one of their respective laps.

Diego LOVES cuddling, but is aware of Carewyn’s lessened interest in it, so he tries to find creative ways for them to be close without cuddling frequently. Since Carewyn likes holding his arm when they’re in public, Diego adds onto that by resting his hand on top of hers holding his arm. If Carewyn’s holding his wrist, Diego will twist his arm around to hold hers in return, rubbing his thumb lightly along her skin.

D: Dates (What are dates with them?)

Concerts! Chiara and Carewyn love going to concerts together -- they always dress to impress and always go out of their way to get matching concert tees. The best concert they’ve been to so far was for Prince, but they also have gone to see artists like Queen and the Cure live. Besides that, they actually spend a lot of dates at home, sitting under the blankets reading books together. One of Chiara’s favorite memories is Carewyn reading Mr. Darcy’s romantic monologue from the end of Pride and Prejudice aloud for the first time -- when she’d finished, Chiara couldn’t stop herself from leaning forward, bringing a hand up to Carewyn’s face to make her look up, and ensnaring her lips in a deep, hungry kiss. Around Christmas time, Chiara and Carewyn like taking turns reading A Christmas Carol aloud to each other.

The obvious one is dancing. Diego LOVES finding an excuse to dance with Carewyn, whether by taking her to a small nightclub, by signing them up for a dance class, or just by turning on the radio while they’re home alone and twirling her around the kitchen. One of the most fun classes they took was for ballroom dance -- Carewyn wore one of her prettiest, flowiest dresses and when they danced together, Diego felt like he was in an old Hollywood movie musical. Besides dancing, though, Diego and Carewyn also go to the movie theater and watch movies at home a lot. Carewyn’s favorite type of movies are musicals, period dramas and detective stories, while Diego’s favorite genres are musicals, action movies, and chick flicks (yes, really -- he cries so hard watching The Notebook).

E: Everything (You are my ____ (e.g. my life, my world…))

Carewyn to Chiara: “You are my sanctuary.”

Chiara to Carewyn: “You are my courage.”

Carewyn to Diego: “You are my sunshine.”

Diego to Carewyn: “You are my inspiration.”

F: Feelings (When did they know they were in love?)

Chiara knew she was in love with Carewyn the moment she saw Carewyn first transform into a robin so she could stay with her and keep her company during the next full moon. The fact that Carewyn had put in so much effort and work, all for her, moved Chiara so much that, when she returned to her dorm after that full moon, her eyes flooded with tears just thinking about it.

Carewyn knew she was in love with Chiara the moment that Chiara took hold of Carewyn’s face in both hands, holding it as she leaned in close and whispered in a voice fiercer than Carewyn had ever heard her use before that she didn’t care how much Carewyn hated herself, that she -- Chiara -- would love her until Carewyn could love herself. That day had been one of the worst for Carewyn after Rowan’s death -- she’d disappeared for almost an entire day and had only just reemerged, ending up in a crying clump on the ground with Bill, Charlie, Ben, and Merula, and Chiara had arrived with Talbott and a few others behind her, racing straight to Carewyn’s side. Her unconditional support and passion with which she spoke touched Carewyn more than she could ever hope to express.

Diego knew he was in love with Carewyn when he stood side by side with her before the Circle of Khanna’s final battle with R. She’d been standing alone, dressed in robes worthy of a general, and Diego had approached her, asking if she was all right. They talked for a while, before Diego gave one of his usual “charming” quips -- and Carewyn just started laughing. She laughed harder than Diego had ever heard her laugh before. Diego smiled, dumbfounded, asking if he was really that funny; Carewyn finally managed to rein in her amusement and, through a fond smile, reached up, gave Diego a light platonic kiss to the cheek, and thanked him. “I was terrified, looking out at everything,” she’d said. “It was...overwhelming. But you reminded me why I’m doing this at all -- because you all are worth any risk. So I can love you more strongly than I could ever fear anything.” As she said it, the sunrise behind her made a crown-like halo of sunshine around her head -- and in that moment, Diego knew he was lost.

Carewyn knew she was in love with Diego when he finally, finally manged to beat her in a duel one day. Even though she’s much more mature than when she was a kid, Carewyn has always been a rather sore loser, berating herself whenever she falls short, and so as she rose to her feet, there was a noticeable drop of her head and weight on her shoulders. Rather than gloat, Diego immediately rushed over to Carewyn, gushing over her technique at the top of his lungs as he led her away from everyone else. Once the bystanders were out of earshot, Diego asked Carewyn if she’d sing something for him. Carewyn was startled by the request -- Diego explained that Carewyn always looked so happy and free whenever she sang, and in that moment, he couldn’t bear to see “his General” hang her head. Carewyn settled on “Angel,” a song by her favorite band, the Eurythmics. She sang it softly so only the two of them could hear it as they walked side by side...and after a while, she caught the sound of Diego lowly singing the chorus (“Angel, my angel...fly over me...Angel...”) along with her. She looked into his dark eyes, saw his full, delighted smile...and she knew.

G: Gentle (Are they gentle? If so, how?)

Chiara and Carewyn are both the EPITOME of gentle, the first because she’s a shy Healer, the second because she’s a total empath. Whenever they’re ever actually physically intimate, Chiara and Carewyn usually caress and hold each other’s faces a lot and trail their hands through each other’s hair.

Carewyn is gentle, yeah, but amusingly, Diego is also an absolute friggin’ gentleman. When Carewyn can’t reach something, Diego will sometimes offer to physically lift her so she can get it, and he always holds her waist with both the strength and gentleness of a male figure skater.

H: Hands (How do they like to hold hands?)

Chiara loves interlacing her fingers with Carewyn’s while they’re holding hands, whenever appropriate. She likes being able to feel Carewyn’s pulse when the inside of their wrists are touching.

Carewyn will frequently hold onto Diego’s arm, so Diego often holds Carewyn’s hand holding his arm. He likes to rub his thumb affectionately over the back of her hand.

I: Impression (What was their first impression?)

Carewyn of Chiara: ‘She seems so...lonely.’

Chiara of Carewyn: ‘Why is she looking at me like that? It’s like...she can see through me...’

Carewyn of Diego: ‘...Is he for real?’

Diego of Carewyn: ‘Such a lovely smile, and yet...such closed eyes. I wonder what’s behind those eyes.’

J: Jealousy (Do they get jealous?)

Chiara isn’t jealous, exactly, but she does frequently doubt herself and lament that Carewyn deserves someone better than her -- someone who isn’t a werewolf and wouldn’t have the potential of hurting her or damaging her reputation at the Ministry. It’s more that she becomes depressed and hopeless at the thought of Carewyn with other people, rather than territorial.

Diego does get jealous. He’s very aware of how much Carewyn attracts others around her, and although most of the time he’s a pretty chill dude, he hates it when other men flirt with Carewyn. He’s cool with Carewyn’s relationships with people like Bill, Charlie, and Talbott, since he knows that the love Carewyn feels for them is strictly platonic -- but when someone he doesn’t know tries to make a move on Carewyn, he can’t help himself from asserting himself a bit and making it clear that she’s taken. Fortunately Carewyn, being the incredibly monogamous sort she is, is usually able to soothe Diego’s concerns, either by introducing Diego to the person properly or by likewise making her relationship status clear by introducing Diego as her boyfriend and/or kissing his cheek.

(In both cases, Carewyn is remarkably unfazed by jealousy. Once she makes a commitment, she’s in it for the long haul, and she expects nothing less from her respective partner. As long as you love her and she loves you, that’s all that matters. But if you give her real cause to doubt you, such as you having a romantic affair with someone else, that’s it, you’re out of her life. No forgiveness.)

K: Kiss (How do they kiss? Who initiated the first kiss?)

Carewyn initiated the first kiss, which was very short and chaste. Chiara froze like a deer in the headlights, but after she finally recovered herself and the two hashed out their feelings a bit, she rather clumsily moved in and kissed Carewyn herself much more fully. Since she knows Carewyn prefers short kisses to long ones (since Carewyn likes to look at her partner’s face to see their reaction and keeping your eyes open during long kisses gets uncomfortable), Chiara tries to keep most of her kisses rather chaste, only dipping into deep kisses when she’s feeling particularly affectionate or turned on. When they do kiss, though, it’s usually always on the lips, except for when one of them has to wake up before the other to go to work and they kiss each other on the forehead before heading out.

Diego initiated the first kiss after asking through a charming smile if Carewyn would slap him if he did. (She laughed quietly before assuring him she wouldn’t.) Since Carewyn’s less physically affectionate than him, Diego tries to get creative with his kisses, just like he does his cuddling. Sometimes he’ll ask Carewyn for a kiss, and when she moves in to kiss him on the lips or cheek, he’ll kiss her nose instead. He also loves kissing her hands, whether a gentlemanly kiss on the back of her hand or a more sensual one to her palm while they’re more intimate.

L: Love (Who says ‘I love you’ first?)

Although the two women suspected each other’s feelings for a long while beforehand, Carewyn said the actual words aloud first. "...I realize that...neither of us is very good, when it comes to admitting these sorts of things...but...after everything we’ve been through, I couldn’t live with myself if you didn’t know. My heart is yours, Chiara. It has been for a long time. And it doesn’t matter to me if you want to take the next step with me, or make it official. Just...know that I love you, with everything I am.”

Diego confessed first, after inviting Carewyn to sing some karaoke with him at a local pub. He chose a love duet from a movie musical he and Carewyn had gone out to see with some friends and really enjoyed, and after the two had something of a silent conversation with their eyes the entire time they were singing, Diego offered Carewyn an oddly self-conscious smile as they headed back to their table. “...I wanted to make sure you knew I was serious.” “So you were?” “What? You think I wasn’t?” “It was a little melodramatic.” “Well yes, but -- wasn’t it romantic?” “Yes. It was. ...So you were being serious?” “Yes! Incredibly! ...I love you, Carewyn Cromwell. I have for...well, quite a while, now.”

M: Memory (What’s their favourite memory together?)

Chiara’s favorite memory is when Carewyn first turned into her robin Animagus form to keep her company during the full moon. Carewyn’s favorite is when she first brought Chiara home to her mother Lane at Christmas time, and the two connected instantly.

Diego’s favorite memory is when he first invited Carewyn to dance with him in the Three Broomsticks during OWL season -- he’ll never forget how much his heart grew, seeing her self-conscious smile and flushed face as she sang along to the song being played. Carewyn’s favorite is when they first dueled the troll together -- even years later, she looks back on that day very fondly, as it was when she realized what a truly loyal companion Diego was.

N: Nickel (Do they spoil one another? Do they buy the person they love everything?)

Neither Chiara nor Carewyn are the sort to spend a lot of money, but they do always go out of their way to save up and buy each other something really nice every Christmas. Carewyn likes to surprise Chiara with little packages of baked goods that she can take into work, while Chiara loves saving up over the span of several years to buy Carewyn a really nice pair of diamond earrings or something.

Diego loves surprising Carewyn with little tokens of his affection. They usually won’t cost much, but nothing gives him more joy than being able to give Carewyn a gift for no other reason than “I saw this and thought of you!” Carewyn teases Diego for his little “unbirthday” gifts in the beginning, but before long, she’s reciprocating in kind by baking him stuff and leaving sweet little handwritten notes on the fridge and in the pocket of his robes for him to find. Diego always melts into a pile of lovestruck goo whenever he finds one of her notes, even if he’s in the middle of tutoring some rich pureblood family’s kid in Wizard Dueling.

O: Orange (What colour reminds them of their other half?)

Carewyn always thinks of Chiara whenever she sees anything silver -- she actually gravitates more toward silver jewelry largely because of her other half. Chiara thinks of Carewyn whenever she sees anything bright blue, like her eyes: Chiara actually mentally dubs any cloudless blue sky as a ‘Care-Blue sky,’ and always feels a spring in her step whenever she sees one.

Carewyn associates Diego with navy blue, not just for the jean jacket he often wore at school, but for her favorite of his dress robes that he wears for work. She always thinks he looks very handsome in them, even if she always has to fix the collar whenever it comes undone. Diego associates the color orange with Carewyn, specifically orange roses, which was one of the first presents he ever gave her when they started dating. When he gave her the single orange rose, he explained that in the language of flowers, they stand for desire, and he associated them with Carewyn not just because of her ginger hair, but because she desires so much from the world and the people around her, and he desires being beside her as long as he can. Carewyn grows an incredible fondness for orange roses over the years, thanks to the many times he’d give her them and even just point them out to her whenever they were out and about.

P: Pet names (What pet names do they use?)

Carewyn calls Chiara “Chi.” Chiara calls Carewyn “Care.” Sometimes they’ll also call each other “dear” and “honey.”

Diego calls Carewyn “General” -- a nickname he developed when she first led the Circle of Khanna. Diego also uses many affectionate variations, such as “sweet General,” “fair General,” “dear General” and “my General.” Carewyn calls Diego “Cap,” though she’ll also call Diego “dear” and “love” when she’s feeling particularly affectionate.

Q: Quaint (What is their favorite non-modern thing?)

Chiara finds old-fashioned strap-on roller skates beyond cute. She also loves it when Carewyn wears vintage-style dresses -- they’re always so pretty on her!

Diego likes old-fashioned glass soda bottles. He and Carewyn actually collect them and reuse them as glasses when they’re eating at home.

(In both cases, Carewyn picks records. CD’s are fine, but records have WAY better sound quality, thank you.)

R: Rainy Day (What do they like to do on a rainy day?)

Carewyn and Chiara read Muggle fiction books aloud together, either in bed or on the couch under a blanket. Some of their favorites that they’ve read together are Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, The Secret Garden, and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.

Diego and Carewyn watch TV and/or a movie together. Carewyn is a sucker for crime shows, but she will let Diego change the channel so he can watch Days of Our Lives at the proper time.

S: Sad (How do they cheer each other up?)

Chiara reassures Carewyn that she’s there for her and tries to get Carewyn to talk about whatever’s upsetting her, with the thought that she’ll feel better once she vent her feelings properly. Carewyn tends to coddle Chiara, showering her with affection and trying to encourage her enough to tell her what’s wrong and how she can help.

Diego tries to be physically present for Carewyn, when she’s upset. He often won’t broach the subject directly, preferring her to open up on her own if she wants to talk, but wants to make it clear that he’s not going anywhere. Carewyn will likewise coddle Diego.

T: Talking (What do they like to talk about?)

Carewyn and Chiara love talking about their respective jobs and coworkers with each other, and they always feed off of each other’s passion for their work. They also talk about music a lot, ranking bands and songs and getting into friendly debates about musical artists they disagree on. When things are more serious, they’ll sometimes talk about the political landscape, too.

Diego's conversations with Carewyn are often aimless and laid-back. Even when Carewyn starts off talking about something serious, they’ll usually banter and drift off so much that the conversation always ends up somewhere completely different than where they started. They can start on a topic like one of Carewyn’s upcoming court cases and end up talking about a new flavor of ice cream at the parlor down the street.

U: Unencumbered (What helps them relax?)

Chiara and Carewyn both relax when they’re able to sit quietly and comfortably together after a long day.

Carewyn likes when Diego offers to brush her hair. Diego loves when Carewyn offers to give him a neck or back massage.

V: Vaunt (What do they like to show off? What are they proud of?)

Chiara isn’t a show-off at all -- but she does get some secret, giddy satisfaction whenever she can bring Carewyn to St. Mungo’s, not just to show Carewyn where she’s working and what she’s been up to, but also to show off her friggin’ gorgeous girlfriend to her co-workers. Yes, that girl is mine. 83

Diego is a total show-off while dueling, both when Carewyn’s around to watch or not. He also makes it a point to show off Carewyn when they’re in public, especially if she’s dressed to kill.

(In both cases, Carewyn loves showing off any new outfits she’s wearing...and of course, she loves telling everyone about her partner’s achievements.)

W: Wedding (When, how, where do they propose?)

In both cases, I’m not sure I would have Chiara or Diego propose. Carewyn is actually quite a romantic person, but she’s not huge into the idea of marriage. (Considering how her parents’ marriage turned out, I can’t say I blame her.) I’m more likely to see Carewyn’s happy ending with her respective partner being a domestic partnership or even queerplatonic relationship, over a marriage.

X: Xylophone (What’s their song?)

I actually have aesthetic playlists for both ships! Here’s Chiara/Carewyn, and Diego/Carewyn.

Y: Yes (Do they ever think of getting married/proposing?)

Touched on above on “W!”

Z: Zebra (If they wanted a pet, what would they get?)

Chiara and Carewyn would have a pair of black and white tuxedo cats named Annie and Johnny Rotten.

Diego and Carewyn would have a golden retriever named Prince and a snowy owl named Evita.
