#kibble yapping

[kibble-2]

anotha one !!

bakugo hates public affection. this man will not hold your hand when you guys are around your friends. behind closed doors, bakugo wants to be held, kissed, cuddled, LOVED. all of it. he craves your affection and attention. he even craves it when your in class or training. he wants to sit in the corner with you and have your head rested on his chest while you play with his hands.

i love the idea of big, strong guy needing a soft and affectionate significant other. it’s adorable.

i’m imagining after long day of school and training, he will let himself into your dorm when your showering and make himself comfortable in your bed and will wait for you to come out and cuddle with him. youll open your door and see him sitting in his phone, cuddled in your blankets and you know that it’s gonna be a cuddly night with him

i love that no animal in my house has enough brains to hunt bugs for me

NOTE: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS. (Also, I’m a sappy, silly, dork at times. Sorry not sorry.) I took some liberties when it came to JJK as I’ve only seen the two seasons on crunchy roll and kinda ran with it. Sorry if that’s upsetting.

The boys reactions to learning their s/o has been kidnapped

WARNINGS: use of ‘naughty words’, mentions of blood, rape, mutilation, death, violence, and possible spoilers.

RYOMEN SUKUNA

The King of Curses was phased by nothing. Your presence (or lack of) wasn’t that important. He could go a day without you, without thinking of you.

Ryomen snarled. And yet here he was again for the fifth time this hour wondering how much longer you planned to take. Just how long did humans need to visit family for anyway? What was so damned special about it? 

“Great One!” Uraume immediately knelt beside him. 

“Uraume?” His four eyes blinked once before, “Where is y/n? Waiting my room?” It was a pleasant thought but his battle instinct said otherwise. 

“Forgive me, Great One. Lady y/n,” Uraume stiffened.

“Don’t keep me in suspense,” he snarled.

“Forgive my error. Lady y/n was taken, my Lord.”

“Taken?”

Maybe it was fear, maybe a blush that lit Uraume’s face. “Yes. Lady- lady y/n sent me away briefly so she could speak with her family. Apparently, I make them uncomfortable.” It was only a moment but it felt like an eternity passed before she spoke again. “I should have sensed it. I apologize for my error, Great One.” “What are you yapping about? And where is she?” Ryomen roared. 

It was impossible to still the tremble that shot through her body. “I don’t know where she is, Lord Sukuna. Only that she sent me away. I stepped to the door, heard something, turned and she was gone. Every member of her family were slaughtered in that moment.” Uraume trembled again. “I don’t know, my Lord.”

“Her body was not among the dead?” It didn’t hurt. He wouldn’t say that. His chest just moved weird when he asked. It wasn’t like his heart could actually hurt over this.

“She was not, my Lord.”

“Hm. I should have figured. You would have brought me a corpse at least, if that were the case.” 

“Your trust is flattering, my Lord.”

“Hmph. Find out who took her and what they want. You have one day.”

“My lord.” Uraume disappeared from his sight quickly then.

Yes. It didn’t matter if you were gone a whole day. He wouldn’t allow it to affect him but hell was coming for the creature that disrupted his plans for the evening. 

*******************************************

“Wow. I’ve seen stupid before, but you’re something else.”

“Ssshhh ut up, human.” The creature’s hissing speech was irritating enough but if this thing thought it stood a chance. “Or I’ll shh, cut out that ssstupid tongue.”

You giggle. “As if. Lord Sukuna will turn you into kibble.” Briefly you scrunch your brows before wondering out loud, “I wonder if Uraume has fed his pets yet today.”

A blade appeared, pressed to your lips. “Sssssh ut it!”

You can’t help but smile and lick the flat of it. “You don’t stand a chance.”

MEGUMI FUSHIGURO

“Why are we being called in?” Megumi asked in his usual uninterested tone.

“The higher ups have a stick up their ass and they want us to pull it out…probably,” Gojo sniped before finishing with a grin. 

Megumi rolled his eyes. One day, his teacher was going to step too far and those same higher ups were likely to come down on him but today wasn’t the day…probably.

The doors came open as Megumi, Yuji, Nobara, and Saturo stepped close. “There is no time for greetings. Seat yourselves and let’s begin.”

“Well, nice to see you too,” Saturo Gojo sniped with a smile. “Whaddya got for us?”

Heavy sighs echo through the small room before a woman’s voice said, “Watch.” On a screen on the side of the room, a newscast was being played.

As soon as the reporter switched to the scene behind them, three sets of eyes turned to Megumi. He didn’t notice. His eyes were glued to yours looking up him through the screen. 

To say Megumi was used to loss was fairly accurate. He accepted loss was a part of every mission and pretty much expected it… but that was no excuse for you to go and get yourself captured by curse user. 

The demands were that one person alone was to deliver their required ransom for you (another cursed object that should never leave the school) or they would turn you into their newest curse. Worse, they made the demand publicly, ensuring the higher ups couldn’t just sweep their request (and you) under the rug. 

What none of them expected was that Megumi would volunteer to be the one to deliver their ransom. Or that he would have a plan to get you back without having to give up the cursed item.

********************************************************

These fuckers were in for a hell of a surprise. You weren’t worth anything and you knew it. Just some orphan left in the care of the state to manage a life that had thus far amounted to little. For fuck sake, you only graduated high school last year and who in their right mind tries to take a cafe barista as a hostage. These guys were nuts. 

But hearing what they demanded and their threats just riled you. No, you weren’t worth some great value but you’d be damned if they were doing a single thing to you without a fight. 

KENTO NANAMI

The steady clack of keys on keyboards was near deafening as the entire office echoed it. Blank faces stared at bright screens as the sun sank behind the horizon. Another day of boring repetitive garbage. 

Nanami stood from his desk, collecting his things in his usual slow and perfectly controlled manner. At least y/n should be ready by the time he got there. He had worked a little late, but then, you usually took an extra minute to close up shop. 

Nanami smiled to himself as he lifted his briefcase and slid his laptop in. You always made him a special set of bread as the last one of the day so it would be fresh and warm even after you both got back to his apartment. Maybe he should ask, no no. He shook his head and set his usual expressionless face back in place. No need to think of that right now.

Kento set his briefcase in the back seat before sliding into his car and starting it. Safer that way. You had a tendency to ‘chuck it’ into the back seat if it were in your way. The edges of his mouth curled into a smile. Anyone else and he would have been ticked about tossing an expensive laptop about like that but when you did it, it was cute. And even if it weren’t, the grin you give him after certainly was.

He barely managed to get the grin back under control by the time he was pulling up to your shop only to freeze as he parked. The glass door was shattered, the shop inside showing obvious signs of a struggle. 

Nanami felt like his blood was pumping through his body at several miles a minute then. On the outside, Kento was entirely calm as he slowly unbuckled and stepped out of his car. Only those that knew him would notice the difference. The way his fists tightened, the set of his jaw, or the measured gait he adopted as he stepped through the broken entrance. 

His eyes scanned the scene and picked up the single scrawled note with ease. 

“Want her, come get her.”

The paper crumpled in his fist before he shifted his attention to tracing the energy. They would pay for making him work overtime.

****************************************************

Much as you would love to (continue to) tell these guys off, one of them had already stuffed a sock in your mouth and duct taped it there. That didn’t really stop you though as you continued to hurl insults through your gag.

“Geez. If this guy doesn’t hurry up, I’m gonna kill the broad just to shut her up,” one of your captors grumbled. 

“Mmm mmnnnm mmm mm.” Your attempted snarl did little through your gag, and it wasn’t like you could fight back now. These jerks may be asses but they knew how to tie knots. Between the chafing on your upper arms and wrists, you had tested every way you could think of to get loose and were only too glad you had worn pants today instead of a skirt. 

YUJI ITADORI

Having adopted his mentor's distaste for meetings, Yuji trudged into the room with a heavy sigh. “Do we have to?” he whined.

You could just give up control and I could kill them all, Sukuna suggests amiably but Yuji ignores him.

Nobara slaps the back of his head. “You already know the answer to that. Sit down.”

Megumi barely managed not to smile before taking his seat. He blinked owlishly for a moment before the friendly wave confirmed his suspicion. “You’re here too?”

Yuta smiled. “Yeah. I’ll let them explain everything.”

“Must be pretty big if they called both of you here,” Yuji said with a grin as he looked between Yuta and Gojo. 

“You know it. Three first years are missing after being sent in and we’re going to go save them,” Gojo stated.

Sighs echo around the room. “Let’s begin the actual mission brief.” All eyes shifted to the screen. Typed out quickly was the message from Tengen. “Earlier this morning, three first year Jujutsu students, Eimo Makito, Rugi Kamisari, and y/n, were accompanied by two third years, Panda and Toge Inumaki, to subdue or suppress whatever was causing the disappearances over Lake Tazawa’s area. The reported incidents originally listed this as a Class 3 curse at best, but with our newest information, we believe there may be more than one special grade at work, making it appear lower to continue to deceive us. We can no longer rule it out.”

Yuji had stopped reading at your name and his eyes were glued to it until Megumi elbowed him lightly to draw his attention back to the meeting. 

You’re okay, right? This doesn’t mean you're dead. Just that….you’re missing.

“We currently do not know if any of the students are alive or not. The veil we placed has been encompassed by a stronger one and we have no way to get information in or out.”

“So we’re going in blind. My specialty,” Gojo stated with a grin.

Yuta chuckled beside him. “We can handle this-”

“I’m coming too,” Yuji shouted and everyone stilled before Gojo’s chuckle released some of the tension in the room. 

“Plan to be a knight and go save your princess?”

“It’s not just about y/n,” Yuji stated, though his blushing ears decried otherwise. “Panda and Toge are there too. We have to save them if we can.”

“You know they might already be dead.” Gojo just wanted to make sure it was clear, that Yuji wasn’t holding out hope on this one.

“I won’t believe it until I see it.”

“Gre-at,” Megumi sighed and face palmed. “It's the detention center all over again.”

“Sorry, Itadori,” Yuta began. “But you can’t-”

“I’m coming too,” Yuji repeated. 

“Nuh-uh, kid,” Gojo said standing up. “I’ll let you come with us, but you are staying out side the barrier, you understand. You want to make sure everyone is safe, that’s fine. But you will keep yourself and Sukuna out of that barrier, clear?”

Despite the blindfold being on, Yuji could feel the blue eyes of his teacher boring into him. 

Finally he sighed in defeat. “Fine. I’ll wait outside the barrier. But,”

“No buts, or you're not going and I’ll leave you chained up here.”

Yuji’s silence to follow was taken for acquiescence. 

*****************************************************

You blink your eyes open to an unfamiliar sight. The barrier above you seems almost black and the shimmering in it makes you want to vomit after looking at it for a moment. Like staring at trees outside a moving car window. You roll and tuck your left arm up. You're able to move it but the bone in your forearm is definitely broken. 

Your eyes land on Panda as you sit up. “How’s he doing?” you whisper through the pain. 

Panda smiles sadly at you. “He’ll be fine. Just needs a bit to get his throat to stop bleeding.”

“I’m sorry, Toge.”

Toge shook his head and smiled sadly at you. “Bonito flakes.” It even sounded choked and you felt your eyes water. He must be in incredible pain. 

You three were lucky. Eimo and Rugi weren’t as fortunate. You had to come up with some kind of plan to get out of here, but if these two didn’t have anything how could you?

“Fuck!” you curse under your breath.

“Salmon.” 

That at least got you to smile and you can tell that was his intention. You would get out of this. Together.

Again a quick and sincere thank you to Miss Vry (@vrystalius) for helping me with tags :D

omegaverse. who do you think would be who?

okay this is one of the best asks of all time im serious. read more below because i like YAPPING

🎼. NOTES

* the parkour god is the ultimate alpha, passing his title down to evbo! the entirety of pkciv is, technically speaking, his territory / pack. though he's not very picky about it. thought he was actually an omega for awhile, he was just a late bloomer in presenting

* omegas, betas, and alpha's are all disproportionately balanced across the level's. omegas are often dehumanized as they're usually noobs. the fighter level mostly consisted of beta's or unhinged alpha's

Evbo – he don't rlly gaf cause to him parkour is more important but definitely an alpha because he's the main character. people don't often take him seriously when says that he's an alpha, though. he doesn't care much about those label's and treats everyone equally. is very protective of anyone he considers to be in his pack

—————————————————————————

Evbos Neighbor – one of the many omegas in evbos pack (his neighborhood) that he tries to protect. he's a really sweet alpha okay. all of the noobs, excluding the old man, we're either betas or omegas.

—————————————————————————

The Old Man – an old alpha who's pheromones don't work anymore but he still got it. teaches evbo how to be the best alpha he can be. him and the parkour villain were both mates in an alpha4alpha relationship before the parkour villain became evil

—————————————————————————

The Parkour Villain (ClownPierce) – evil ass alpha that misses his mate cause he died. wanted to take over the world with his fated mate and was DEVASTATED when he said no

—————————————————————————

EMF – definitely a beta that (very poorly) fakes being an alpha. it works on the pros really well but in the alpha dominated society of the master level, he's so out of place. humbled by evbos alphaness.

—————————————————————————

Seawatt – presents as a powerful beta (or alpha depending on who he's with) using fake pheromones / perfumes to mask his scent. he's actually an omega and really ashamed of it. chronic user of heat suppressants and really REALLY needs to listen to his body. afraid that no one will take him seriously if they find out he's an omega. let evbo take care of you please

—————————————————————————

Evil Champion – definitely an evil alpha that fights with evbo for his territory but loses everytime because plot armor.

—————————————————————————

🪐. BONUSES

* these are character's / youtubers that aren't in pkciv, in different civs / other's videos, or friend's with the creators. also some that i just felt like adding !

Mysti – an omega in Tabis pack! nests with Tabi and reassures her that there's nothing to be ashamed of.

—————————————————————————

Tabi – a strong alpha woman. enough said. hates the way female alpha's (and just females in general) are treated in society by male alpha's. owns a territory and pack #girlboss. nests sometimes with Mysti because she finds it comforting but is high-key ashamed about it. overworks herself.

—————————————————————————

Grox – nobody knows what he is exactly but he's really evil and his 200+ charges of slavery certainly don't help his case.

—————————————————————————

Joll – beta but can change his presentation to basically anything due to prolonged use of the infinity dungeon's.

—————————————————————————

Kibble – is an actual dog and does get personally offended by the omegaverse. really cute though so ig he's okay to be here.

—————————————————————————

Golem – he's a golem so he doesn't fit under the same classifications / requirements that, say, Joll does.

—————————————————————————

Conk – a fucking talking rock. he is so big and so dumb. looks into the sky

[sp1cyrobofucker]

whats your thoughts on a cybertronians first 100 years of life?

alright you did not specify a continuity so i'm choosing to yap about my fan continuity :3 [also sorry this took so long to answer, i was getting my notes together and i wanted to draw diagrams]

i do not subscribe to the concept that cybertronians have an infant stage. i think they're much more interesting as an alien species if they simply are "adults" from the very beginning of their life cycle! that's not to say that i don't like the idea of cybertronian children, lord knows i have plenty of ideas revolving around a few kid fics, but overall i'm not particularly interesting in worldbuilding an infant stage for my cybertronians.

sooooooo, let me give you a step by step walk through of their first 100 years of life!

before existence: a cybertronian emerges from one of the many wells of allsparks dotted across the planet. there is one in every majour population center and all cybertronian sparks are tiny fragments of primus himself.

at this stage they are little more than a bundle of energy and the vaguest hint of a personality. without a frame to inhabit, these sparks will burn out and eventually return to primus, sinking through unicron's surface and reuniting with the core.

first moments: so, assuming that our tiny spark has managed to emerge from the well without being absorbed back into primus, its next task is to find some kind of sentio metallico.

a spark, plus sentio metallico, creates a being known as a protoform!

protoforms are characterised by their lack of altmode, lack of kibble, and their malleability. this malleability is what allows them to take on their first altmodes! after they take on their first altmode, their bodies take on the attributes of whatever object they've scanned or thought of and their shells become fully solid.

if a cybertronian wants to change their altmode to something outside of their current class, like a jet changing to a car, or a tank changing to a microscope, they must visit an altmode specialist to either get their armour and transformation seams switched around to accommodate the new altmode, or they must have their spark transferred to a new frame with a new altmode

additionally, similarly to idw1 and idw2, other cybertronians can capture sparks as they leave the wells. these sparks are often put on ice and left in stasis until there is either enough sentio metallico for them to bind to, or until there is a pre-fabricated frame for the spark to be placed within

biologically and intelligence wise, there is nothing that distinguishes a cold constructed frame from a frame created from pure sentio metallico. there is simply no protoform phase with the cold constructed frame. this, unfortunately, has lead to a number of stereotypes and discrimination against them.

after spark/frame merge: this takes place roughly 1 hour or so after a cybertronian finally picks an altmode and their frame fully solidifies. in older times, before most cities got up and running, newly formed cybertronians would be assigned a partner who would connect their systems together in order to share language packets, skill trees, and other important life skills. if there was no other cybertronian around, they would simply have to stumble around and figure shit out for themselves.

in modern times however, the governments who control the well of allsparks have a different way of doing things.

data modules are small items that contain language, skill, or common sense data! these are typically installed directly into the brain module when a protoform first solidifies. this method of giving new cybertronians information is much more efficient and since modern cybertron is focused on getting new cybertronians into jobs as soon as possible, this is the optimal strategy.

most cybertronians are onlined with a basic set of data modules installed. these include:

a common language module. it contains the universal cybertronian common tongue

a language module for the main dialect of whatever region the protoform is from

a skill module. this contains basic skills such as refueling, walking, talking, modulating the em field, and much more

common sense data. this typically encompasses most societal expectations [such as how to behave around older mecha, how to ask politely for things, how not to start fights, ect...]

and finally, most cybertronians will also receive a module dedicated to whatever caste they've been assigned to. this will typically contain information as to where they are allowed to go, which bots they're allowed to talk to, and which rights they have received

after data acquisition: alright, now that all that information is out of the way, we can finally get around to what cybertronians do with the rest of their lives. unfortunately, they typically end up doing the exact same thing until they die.

most cybetronians will be assigned some kind of mentor, whether that be a specific mentor who is part of the dedicated system for mentors/mentees. or they'll simply be taken under the metaphorical and sometimes physical wing of an older mecha.

and sometimes, mecha simply won't have anyone to guide them and they simply have to go about life on their own. my cybertron is a very individualist place. the government has structured the system so that most people just want to look after themselves and keep their helms down. revolutionaries are few and far between and even areas that rely more heavily on community, like the lower classes who only have each other, still typically are focused on just surviving to see the next day

if mecha are lucky, they might be paired with a mentor who genuinely cares about them in a familial way and wants to see them succeed.

but if we're talking generally, the first 100 years are probably gonna be filled with fuck ups and learning. even basic data packets cannot prepare one for every single situation and many new cybertronians have to learn how to operate in a world that is filled with so many rules.

they're adults for certain, but they're kinda like college students. they know, theoretically, how the world operates, but in actual practice they have to experience things in order to grow.

again, i'm sorry this took so long, but i really, really wanted to yap about my fan continuity :3 hope you like!!!

@gollldrush asked 📚 lira and leo!

Lira had been eyeing this girl at a party. The place was chaos incarnate: neon lights flickering like they were powered by the sheer audacity of the band, music that sounded like someone had put an angry washing machine in charge of the bassline, and a crowd of people so loud and colorful they made tropical birds look reserved. In other words, a perfect Saturday for Lira. Her pockets jingled with a night’s worth of scam money, half a bag of weed, and some extra kibble for Pontus, who was laying at her feet and periodically eyed the mosh pit. It was mid-sip that she first noticed the girl who was looking more than a little uncomfortable as some guy with the social awareness of a rock yapped at her with the persistence of a malfunctioning car alarm. Lira tried to look away—honestly, she did—but her eyes kept drifting back. Like gravity had decided to get personal.

The girl’s polite smile stretched thinner and thinner, while the guy yammered on, oblivious. Lira let out a long, dramatic sigh, the kind that said, Fine, universe, if you’re going to insist. Weaving through the crowd like a tipsy pinball, Pontus trailing her steps, she tapped the guy on the shoulder, flashing him a smile that was technically polite but carried the distinct aroma of bitch. "Hey man, you look like you could really use a cigarette. Or a walk. Or a long trip off a short pier. Why don't you take five?" The guy blinked, first at her, then at the girl, then Pontus, and lastly at the room as though calculating his odds of coming out of this with his dignity intact. And after muttering something vaguely insulted he wandered off toward the bar. Victory! The brunette grinned at the girl, holding up her empty bottle like a prize. “The trouble with having an open mind,” she said, tone rich with faux-wisdom, “is that people keep trying to put their shit in it.” She raised her bottle in a cheers. “So... Ya here for the music, the beer, or just to see how many bad decisions can fit in one night?”

Good Omentober Day 25 - The Hellhound

Prompt by @disaster-dog

Crowley discovers his soft side on an unconventional assignment from Hell and lives to tell the tale to Aziraphale years later.

Crowley had found himself in quite an interesting situation. Things had been painfully dull on Earth since Jesus’ crucifixion and he was craving something new to do. That’s how he ended up getting assigned to work in the beasts' department for a six-month stint while another demon was predisposed to causing havoc on Earth. Right now, he was cradling what was one day going to be a large, vicious hellhound in his arms and watching as its tail wagged eagerly for a small taste of the puppy milk he had in a bottle in his other hand.

“Aren’t you a cutie, little Dondun?” Crowley cooed, gently scratching behind the dog’s ears.

Crowley would die inside if anyone saw him like this but he couldn’t help but melt in the presence of a litter of puppies, even if they were Hellhounds. This one in particular held a special place in his heart. He was the runt of a little of 3 and had been entirely abandoned by his mother. Crowley spent all his time with the little one, willing it to grow up lovely and strong.

Over the next month, Crowley would nurture and play with the puppy but he seemed stunted. The demon wouldn’t admit it but he was really worried about him. He was barely half the size of his brothers and Crowley knew if he didn’t improve soon, his life would be short-lived.

“Come on Donnie, you gotta eat,” Crowley sighed, nudging the bowl of demonic kibble towards the weak dog.

Today was particularly bad. Dondun hadn’t even moved all day, curled up in the far corner of the kennel, shaking in the cool. Crowley gently ran his hand along the back of the dog, slowly resigning himself to the fact that Dondun likely wouldn’t survive the night despite his best efforts.

He picked up the puppy and cradled him as he had many times before, gently petting his head and a few tears began to streak his cheeks, “I’ve got you, Donnie. You go when you’re good and ready.”

Crowley spent the entire night there with the puppy. Dondun took his final raspy breath in the demon’s arms and for the next week, Crowley was numb.

---

It had taken a very long time for Crowley to forget about Donnie. He swore off ever caring about dogs ever again, deciding it was too cruel to trust an animal with his heart.

Aziraphale however, was not aware of this fact when he brought home a bright eyed, fluffy-tailed Border Collie that he’d adopted on a whim. The dog sat obediently at the door to the bookshop, just behind Aziraphale and Crowley could see the dog's big brown eyes that felt so familiar

The dog let out a small yap before breaking past Aziraphale to run to Crowley. Surprised by this, Crowley jumped up, prepared to defend himself from the attacker.

Instead, the dog just licked Crowley’s hand and its tail was wagging excitedly.

The demon bent down to meet the dog at its level. It didn’t take any major miracle to see what was happening. Behind the dog's eyes were the remnants of the soul of a small hellhound that never got to see the world. Behind this Collie’s eyes were the remaining shards of Donnie.

The emotions returned as a flood and Crowley couldn’t hide the tears from Aziraphale as he held the dog in a haphazard hug, his hand gently mussing up the fur around the Collie’s neck.

“Well, it seems like you two will get on just swimmingly!” Aziraphale gushed.

“It’s like I’ve known him my whole life,” Crowley chuckled slightly between the tears, scratching the rough fur around his neck, “We’ve been together since the start, haven’t we Donnie?”

Aziraphale was confused at that, having not even named the dog himself but he was just so pleased to see Crowley being actually vulnerable for once, he didn’t want to interrupt. The Collie was all over Crowley, having now pinned him on the floor of the bookshop to scatter licks all over the demon’s face.

Aziraphale thought that Crowley would surely put a stop to this any moment now.

But he didn’t.

Crowley knew about reincarnation, everyone did, but he didn’t assume it extended to things like hellhounds. He would’ve thought they’d be labelled as too devious to deserve a second life yet here Dondun was, in front of him with those same big eyes and the same excitement, just a different body. He even yapped like the little hellhound he knew.

“Where did you find him?” Crowley asked slowly, suddenly fearing his companion would be cruelly ripped away from him once again.

“In the shelter!” Aziraphale declared proudly. He originally went looking for a cat after seeing one in a cafe that he was doting over but once he met the excitable dog he simply couldn’t resist, “I thought the bookshop could use a little more life.”

“I can’t believe you’d ever volunteer to get something that could hurt your precious books,” Crowley laughed weakly, wrapping his arms around the dog.

“Well I had planned to train him but it seems he’s taken quite a liking to you already. And you already gave him a name!” The angel fussed playfully.

“It’s always been his name. Dondun. Donnie is much nicer though,” Crowley corrected.

“Always?” The angel queried.

That’s how Crowley ended up sitting down with Aziraphale and Donnie and explaining his brief stint in the Beasts department. He told Aziraphale all about Donnie’s mother and how he was abandoned. He recounted the late nights he spent nursing the pup and he also recalled the heartbreak of Donnie’s death.

The angel and the demon housed many dogs in the bookshop after that point. Many breeds, all living entirely different lives but each one had the same big brown eyes. It always hurt when another pup would eventually leave their lives but Crowley held the small comfort in his heart that Donnie would always find his way back home, their souls irrevocably linked.

1998, somewhere in Southern Indiana.

No less than 2 hours ago Arthur paged Dutch when Louise had showed up at the front door and the converted school bus drove off. Dutch wasn’t very free with information about the newcomer by the time he finally called the house.

“Arthur, trust me. She’s another lost stray, trying to make her way in the world. Just like you, just like John.”

“The Kibble bag is getting real low, Dutch. You sure that’s the best idea?”

“Have a little faith, son.”

“Alright, sure.”

I could yap forever about the gang as deadheads. If you wanna check out what I’ve got to say, it’s pinned to my blog.

*you're in sunset savannah, just got on Falena's bad side (hard to do actually) and are trying to convince Leona to save you from his wrath*

Yuu: Leona, please! You have to help me

Leona: Tch, no I don't.

Yuu: At least let me go with you on your way to the outskirts tonight so he can't do anything to me

Leona: Are ya deaf? I dont care about helpin' you. Now run off and just be glad that I'm letting you go, hervibore. Let's go, Ruggie

Yuu: But, Leona-

Ruggie: you heard him, better leave while you still can

Yuu *running up in front of them as they leave*: hey, hey, hey! You gotta let me go with you! You don't know what it's like to be considered a disappointment ... well, maybe you do

Leona: grr

Yuu: but that's why we gotta stick together!

Leona: Listen here, hervibore-

Yuu: No, no, no! Don't speak, don't speak, don't speak! Just hear me out, I might surprise you. I'll be a friend when others despise you.

Leona: *scowling as he rolls his eyes*

Yuu: don't roll your eyes. Stop with the mopin'. You need a pal, my calendar's open!

*Leona and Ruggie trying to walk away*

Yuu: I'll bring you soup, when you feel congested. I'll bail you out, when you get arrested. I got your back, when things get scary. And I'll shave it. When it gets harry

Leona: hah?

Ruggie: sorry but he already has me doing all of that. Well, not the last part

Yuu: don't let me go-o. Don't let me go. Don't let me go-oh-o-o-oh! You need me, you ne~ed me! I'll treat you right, and never act shody. If you kill a man? I'll hide the body. So what do you say?

Leona: *glaring*

Yuu: you're not responding.

Leona: ...

Yuu *smiling*: I think we're bonding!

Leona: you're getting on my nerves

Yuu: don't let me go-o. Don't let me go. Don't let me go-oh-o-o-oh! You need me

Ruggie: no we don't, c'mon Leona

Yuu *grabbing Leona's hands*: you and me, we belong together

Leona: what are you-

Yuu: like butter and grits, like kibble and bits, like yin and yang, Sturm and Drang, like Eng and Chang, attached at the hip. But not an old lady hip. That might break. I'm gonna be on you like a fat kid on cake

Leona *pulling away*: I don't need another Ruggie

Ruggie: yeah! Wait...

Yuu *chasing after Leona*: Like cupid and psyche, like pop rocks and mikey. We'll stick together like that velcro stuff. I'm the fuzzy side; you'll be the spikey. Oh! Like little kids and pajamas with those funny things at the bottom, you know, feeties! Like doughnuts and ... oh, what goes with doughnuts ...? Doughnuts and ... diabetes!

Ruggie: that's foul

Yuu: don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go, don't let me go~!

*Leona is rubbing his head and walking away with Ruggie in tow, you follow, desperately reaching out towards him*

Yuu: hold me, hug me, take me, please. Na-na-na-na-na-na, please don't let me go! I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you *gasp* don't let me go-o, go-o, go-o! Don't let me g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go~!

*you're on your knees, gripping onto the fabric of his pants, hoping he'd feel sympathy for you and relent*

Leona: God, you're annoying. Fine, Ill help you.

Yuu *shedding tears of relief*: you will? Oh, thank you, Leona, so much! You know I-

Leona: If you shut up!

*both beastmen rub their ears as you nod enthusiastically*

Ruggie: you sure this is a good idea?

Leona: can't be worse than just letting them keep yapping their mouth all day

Yuu: trust me, I'll be the most quiet companion ever and though I don't think I can ever come back to this place safely, I'll find you one day and pay you back for your help. I promise!

Leona: good greif

-kinda want to make this an animatic now. Sparked by Donkey's song from shrek (might make more sense if you listen to it)

[kibble-2]

one hug from kirishima, except it’s not a hug you get from a stranger but a hug you get from your best friend you haven’t seen in years whos love language is physical touch and squeezes you so tightly and doesn’t pull away until you pull away first, would cure over half of my problems rn.

Yay I got time to yap about Transformers figures

First things first, I'm a very selective and picky collector, aside from TFP Soundwave. I'm pretty sure I've collected most, if not all, available merch of him (including that stupid 30th anniversary blind bag one. If you need a figure from there that's in the v2, I will probably have it).

Anyways, so I'll be bringing up a lot of non-transforming figures since I care more about the looks rather than it's ability to transform. God I hate kibble so much, it's literally the biggest thing that makes or breaks a figure for me from buying it. The only reason why I've slowed down from collecting TF figures (also money because good god) is because so many figures have bad kibble or just prioritize transforming over looks.

ANYWAYS, I wanna talk about the figures I do like and wanna get. First and foremost, the Revoltech line. I initially didn't want to go buy any of the figures here because I don't really collect any of the characters in this line, but I did end up picking up Megatron and Starscream because good god, the packaging is so fucking good.

(Images from Plastic Crack)

Like I am so so so close to picking up Ultra Magnus too because he just looks so good + his toothpaste packaging that I love. I don't even want to collect Autobots (aside from maybe Jetfire) but look at this design!!!! It's just so yummy

As for figures I am thinking about going for next/like.

I really, really love the Flame Toys designs of their figures, although I do have one of their model kits (Thundercracker) and he is so loose. Like the moment I pick him up, he will fall apart in my hands 😭😭😭I've held back from buying their Soundwave model kit because I'm afraid of that happening again (also, I can't lie, I don't really... Care much about G1 Soundwave. He's cute and all but I'm tired of G1, but I don't really have a choice).

BUT, aside from their model kits, I do wanna pick up a Kuro Kara Kuri figure from them. That series line look so fucking good, especially Drift, Starscream and Megatron. But the one I have my eyes set on is TARNNNNN.

Back when this figure released (and even now), Tarn does not have a lot of figures, so him getting this well designed figure is such a treat to me. He can also glow!! I've unfortunately heard that his knock off of this figure is a little better, but I'll still have to look into that, but still! I've been obsessed with this figure for such a long time and I hope I can pick it up some day (bro is not cheap! And for good reason).

Oh and small side note, I wish more studios did more figures of IDW Megatron. I think it's one of the best designs of Megatron overall, I think it speaks really well to his character. He looks absolutely gorgeous here and happier than his Decepticon alt.

Also, me being a broken record about TFP but I really hope one day they actually do explore that series (they being Flame Toys). I bet their TFP Shockwave would look so so good, but I know their style is more gundam oriented. I'M JUST... I NEED TO LET IT GO 😭😭😭 BUT I NEED A THIRD PARTY TO JUST MAKE ONE MORE FIGURE OF THESE GUYS PLEASEEEE

Anyways I'll talk about one other figure series that I just learned today. Apparently Threezero has a DLX and MDLX series line (MDLX is just a smaller version of DLX but more articulated). I've actually been keeping an eye on them, as they also did a Dorohedoro series of figures and I REALLLYY WANT AN AIKAWA AND/OR KAI FIGURE SO BAD but anyways. Unfortunately, a lot of their Transformers figures are the ones from the Bayverse that I giga don't give a fuck about, but I can't lie, their Shockwave looks so fucking good.

Soundwave's looks a little too chunky for me, but this one looks absolutely perfect (his hand is kind of tiny though, LOL). He looks so well built and sturdy and balanced as hell here. I probably won't pick it up in a long while since he's also kind of expensive (also Tarn looks way more appealing, sorry SW) but still a note I'd like to keep.

I also mentioned earlier, but D-16 is also getting a figure from them! MDLX Specifically, and he looks really fucking good here. I will say, I hate how long the legs are, but thats a TFONE issue.

That's all I have for figures I want to get next, but I wish I had more to talk about or want. As I've mentioned, I'm super picky on the figures I want, like hell, all of these are non-transforming figures, but god I really wish more studios did them. I think a lot more of the Asian studios are taking that route luckily, and I really can't wait to see more. Unfortunately, a lot of them are sticking to the big 2-4 (OP, Megatron and maybe Starscream & Bumblebee, understandably but it's so dry here 😭), but Flame Toys seem to be exploring more characters so I can't wait to see more from them.

Transformers RED also seemed like a promising line when it first came out, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY ALSO DID TFP FIGURES... But it's so disappointing to hear how bad the quality was 😭😭😭 At least Knockout got some justice out of it...

Side tangent of the figures I do own:

I actually don't... Really have figures I really like as much as the ones I've shown above. I do have a Masterpiece of Soundwave (although, I don't know if it's genuine, but I also kind of don't care). Transforming is fun and all, but I am so afraid of chipping the paint of this thing that I don't transform it much. Other than that, most of my other figures are TFP figures of Soundwave (I have 2, I'll explain in a bit), Shockwave, and a figure of the Vehicon Armada (I do want to collect more to be honest, but I don't have enough space).

For the 2 Soundwaves I have, both of them are APC toys (because I am not fucking spending $100 on the official one that retailed for $20-$30 bucks, and the figure isn't even that good!). The variants I have are the Serpent Bell one and the Demonic Whisper. The Serpent Bell one is just one I picked up because the original sold out, only to find out a week or so later that they released Demonic Whisper. I think Demonic Whisper is a lot more show accurate. I just looked it up again and there's apparently a 2.0 that I might fucking get because I'm INSANE. Also side tangent again, I fucking hate the blue they go with for the figures of him. They went with the 3d model colors but for that entire show, he was not fucking blue, he was dark purple and I am so happy APC Toys did him justice.

For Shockwave, I picked up the Beast Hunters variant. It's the best version and most show accurate one I believe. I was tempted to pick up the limited edition lab one but the yellow pissed me off so much. I wish there were better versions of him because this iteration is so fucking good and his figures could do so much better...

The Vehicon one I have was just for fun, but I also kind of want to collect more to have a tiny army because they're so funny. I'm pretty sure it's the official version, but I don't mind buying the APC toys one too. I saw a seller selling their army of them once and it made me so sad... If I had the money, I would get all of them 😔

I really wish I had more figures, but also the figures I do have are filling up so much of one shelf in my collection LOL (my Gundams are also in there. Don't talk to me about Gundam story, IDGAF about Gundams, frankly I hate them aside from the bot designs).

Anyways, long rant OVER

Amara Day 4

The lil ladies have been struggling because Jaxxine so BADLY wants to be best friends with Amara, but Amara is still uncomfortable with being close to others. It's actually kinda funny to watch because Jaxxi will do her lil play stretch and squeak in front of Amara and Amara will get really happy for a second, all soft ears and wiggly tail, before she remembers to be scared. She's been hanging out on the bed with all of us pretty consistently, although she still tends to slide under the bed when she gets overstimulated.

We've officially put in an order for her ID tags, safety patches, and fieldtrip harness for the end of the month (bless Chewy's autoship for the convenience of just tossing in an extra thing here and there to your next shipment so you don't have to keep thinking about it)

She's got Do Not Pet patches, a leather utility harness, a leather collar, and ID tags with our info, her name, and the quote "Scared, not Scary". I found a tag that's shaped like a bee hive and engraved "sweet as honey" which is just so stinkin cute.

Today we've been doing a lot of careful socializing, and I know this series is about Amara, but I am just SO proud of Jaxxine and Tobi, and how they're interacting with Amara. Tobi can be kinda reactive himself, because he's always had chronic "tiny dog" anxiety, and has spent significantly more time socializing with cats than with dogs. And Jaxxi of course is an infinitely excitable lil baby gorl who has never met a friend she didn't love. In their own unique ways, their base temperaments were likely to be tough on Amara.

But much to my delight, both Tobi and Jaxxine have been so respectful of Amara's boundaries, and so firm-but-gentle about their own. Tobi has repeatedly tried to herd Amara in and out of the house for potty trips because he noticed she wasn't going on her own and he was worried. He kept running back to her, giving a lil yap, and then trotting back to the deck, only to turn back around and try again whenever she got anxious and stopped following him. Jaxxine has been so attentive to Amara's communication, and so snuggly with her whenever it's allowed. I'm so proud of my lil lovebugs and how well regulated and polite they've become. Amara has been visibly relaxing more and more each day, and despite her lingering trauma responses, she has mostly settled into a foundation of security with us.

I'm also really pleased with how resilient Amara's health seems to be. Four days into a healthy kibble, ground rabbit, and nutritional supplement milk has already started to restore a nice lustre to her fur, reduced the impact of her muscle fatigue/distressed movement, and reduced her dry nose. I'm still seeing a fair amount of scarring on the tips of her ears, but I'm hoping to start introducing her to more involved medical care and grooming this weekend. I'm thinking probably daily astringent cleansing and a carrier oil or whipped butter moisturizer massaged in via scar tissue scrungling. We have roses and crab apples, so maybe I can press some blossom oil for her. If not, I'll whip some shea.

We've got a lot left to work on, but I'm feeling very optimistic about Amara's responsiveness to care.

[starstruckpurpledragon]

Finally had my second wasp of the day because Estelle wanted to go out one last time before going to sleep.

Didn't see it when I let her out. Didn't see it while I got myself some water to drink. Didn't see it when I went to let her in and bribe her away from yapping at shadows with a promise of a treat (a couple of kibbles since it's late). But as Estelle and I headed back to my room to sleep...

there it was, a small-ish medium sized wasp scuttling around on the floor in front of where the two hallways intersect. It wanted to get off the tile entry hall onto the wooden bedroom hall - probably because of the light in the hallway over there - but could no longer fly. It looked like a massively oversized ant as it scuttled anxiously back and forth. Like... I can believe ants and wasps are related after all of this. I've seen enough wasps, the resemblance is there.

I'd have probably found it dead in the morning if I hadn't run into this wasp this evening, but I squashed it and tossed it away.

the first wasp of the day could still fly and so it saw the outdoors through my alluring office window this morning before it was squashed.

And still I wonder... how many did I not see today?

more levi and soybean adventures

Levi LOSES his mind if something happens to your pet while they are under his care. You had left your lil Soybean with Levi for the day while you were at work (at first Levi was veeeerrryy hesitate to do so because he had no prior experience to keeping things safe and alive and was so scared that he was going to fuck it up and lose you) but so far the morning had passed in a pleasant blur of pets, plays and naps on the couch, and they had just gotten into a little tug of war when all hell broke loose. Soybean, who was just shy of five months, had let the toy slip from their mouth and as the fabric popped free so did a tooth. Levi noticed the small tooth tip tap it’s way over to his sock covered foot. At first he was confused, looking for a sign that it had fallen off a toy or was a piece of wandering kibble but as Soybean yapped for attention, Levi noticed the gap in their little smile. His heart dropped, head starting to spin as he realised that your beloved pet, your child, is now missing a tooth. He can’t call you, you’d freak out. He can call Hange? maybe they would know. Did animals loose teeth? how old was Soybean? fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Levi is panicking as he races to the vet. Tiny Soybean curled up on the passengers seat, all buckled in all safe and sound (levi was not taking any chances) This was it. You were going to leave him. He couldn’t even take care of your pet let alone kids he wanted to have with you. His heart ached as he turned the final corner and pulled into the vet’s parking lot. He turns his attention to Soybean, who is still peacefully sleeping and sighs. Here he goes.

“baby, it’s just a tooth okay?” your tone attempts to soothe Levi’s racing mind as he sits in the car again, baby Soybean in his lap staring out the window. “puppies lose teeth just like humans do”

Levi’s cheeks blush again. He had already had this explained to him by the vet tech who could see he was beyond frazzled. “That’s what the vet said too but are you sure?”

“if the vet says they’re okay, then they are” your tone softens even more. “but it’s sweet that you worried so much. you’re such a good dad”

Levi’s heart jumps at you calling him a dad. He never thought of himself as Soybean’s dad but having you say it has him losing it.

“you still there?” you speak up after a few moments of silence. Levi clears his throat before answering.

“Yeah, i’m here” he runs a finger down Soybean’s nose. “You gonna be home soon?”

“I’m just finishing up. I’ll be home in an hour”

Levi hums and starts the car. “Soybean and I anxiously await”

Your giggle through the phone soothes any tension Levi carried. “I’ll see you soon…dad”
