There's a universe where Aziraphale was the one who fell because he thought the suggestions box was a great idea and Lucifer encouraged him doing so... Angel!Crowley, seeing the cherub's fall, decided to never question God (at least not in front of her)

Two Embers my beloved I am eagerly looking forward to you

[nextstopparis]

obsessed with the scene in 5.02 where they’re crawling up that sewer or whatever thing. merlin is fighting for his life gagging every 3 seconds and arthurs just laughing at him

LIKE??????

[allpiesforourown]

The thought of shizun Binghe and his hoard of scorned hookups the he’s neglecting in the face of his pretty oblivious disciple makes me laugh so hard.

I need an ao3 series documenting this man’s down bad insane behavior like yesterday 😭😭

Literally.. imagining shen yuan checking into an inn and he goes "yes, you can put the name under shen yuan.." and immediately every woman in the building turns to glare daggers at him and he's going um..?? Maybe I'll go somewhere else..

Something so funny ahout Shen Yuan being caught up in harem sabotage when there isn't even a harem. + bonus points if he genuinely tries to help these women and instead ends up making them cry and plays therapist

Woman: you might have his attention now but he'll grow tired of you and come back to me

Shen Yuan: this disciple would never dare think he holds importance in shizun’s heart... I can't compare to madam's beauty. It's clear you care deeply for him, and he will surely return to you

Her, holding back tears: then why *sniffle* why doesn't he visit me anymore... he doesn't even write....

Shen yuan, stuck in place while she rants: I was just trying to be polite and diffuse the situation why do I have to be some random persons emotional support!?

(Of course binghe sees her crying on shen yuans shoulder, gets jealous, and makes things even messier. Shen yuan wants to go home)

[plutoloulou]

I think it's Buck's turn to shut Tommy up with a kiss

Reblog if you agree

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

Lmao Frank would absolutely keep a list of everything they tried to do to fix this situation. He has his work cut out for him with poor wally as well. Does he know what happened to Sally?

Frank does know what happened to Sally! ofc he caught his first glimpse of her when he sorta woke up, then after he Actually woke up, Wally made sure to sit him down and be like "she will kill you if you go near her <3"

still, Frank didn't really believe Wally. so Wally showed him proof:

and Frank quickly changed his tune.

and honestly, it's more like Wally has his work cut out for him with Frank lmao. cause by the time Frank fully wakes, Wally's pretty much given up. and rightfully so, there's... not really anything he can do except protect his sleeping friends.

so Frank's initial attempts to make a plan kinda went like:

Wally is very earnest about saying "that's nice". it is nice. it's refreshing to have someone around that still believes something can be done, however futile that hope is. Frank will catch on eventually.

(green // blue means two main options, red means i need to think about it more)

The main details I'm figuring out right now are

does Celebrimbor still die at Eregion - I don't think he's getting captured/tortured, but he could still die in the battle. On the other hand, he could probably survive by using Narya & Lomion using Nenya, but that would definitely have repercussions further down the line

how does Idril's deal work - I'm currently thinking of Idril exchanging the location of Gondolin for her family's guaranteed safety, because it seems in character for Reverse Idril? But on the other hand, even if I limit it to immediate family at the time of the oath (tuor, turgon, earendil) then idk where turgon dies? Maybe Maglor can kill him but that seems kind of random

where and how does Turgon die

how does Prince Elrond's character even work

how does Numenor still fall when factoring in Prince Elrond - I'm thinking that the morgoth death cult gained enough traction during the time sauron was there that even after Elrond kicks him out, the cult still sticks around and reemerges later? The Fall still happens, but they never go to attack valinor and there's a good deal more Faithful (maybe 40-60%?)

[cherrypicked-pearls]

Feeling very torture the blonde man some more about Kou after this chapter

[nighttimeaboardthepearl]

characters who usually appear dominant and intimidating on the outside/in public but are super gentle with their partner or even enjoy being submissive for them in private 🤝 characters who appear calm and shy in public but enjoy showing their more dominant side to their partner only

[spw-art]

omega ruby or something

[seventeenlovesthree]

Soooooo, I've been trying to plan for Taikouvember, I have probably at least 10 drafts and ideas and maybe 40% of what I've planned is truly done? Taishirou really seems to be celebrating a "revival" on the Japanese side, if Twitter's community can be trusted to some capacity. Which... Makes me happy on one hand, but a bit melancholic on the other, because the English-speaking fandom is so incredibly quiet and I know it's mainly because we don't even have breadcrumbs to talk about at the moment... So yeah, I'm not even sure if I will finish all of what I've planned for Taikouvember, but I'm having fun depicting the boys in various states of mushiness, so... Have some semi-nsfw-mainly-intimate art under the cut for now. (Also, please feel free to send me a message if you wanna talk about the boys, theories, meta or any kinds of AUs, I am always up for that!)
