No but I'm still looking for the Denny's that is still in the middle of nowhere
having cis guy friends is so funny like youll ask if they wanna hang out and theyll send you to the dark woods
#no joke#my brother. fresh out of the house. 19#years old. rolls up to our house right after midnight with a car full of teenagers. tells me and my little sister to get in.#obviously we're asking questions. where are we going. how long are we going to be gone. what are we doing. why are all these people in here.#and a big ol barn that quite literally looks like it's from a Scooby Doo snapshot. it's falling apart#the whole shebang#he answers NONE of them.#so we get in the back seat. I'm being gay with my friend at the time. and we're chilling listening to tunes on the radio.#except now they're talking about a Denny's. i look to the front seat where my brother is driving and he pulls up pictures on his phone#of the inside of somebody's. house. What?#and if that wasn't weird enough. we had already driven 20 minutes off a sideroad into the middle of nowhere. nothing but grass#and a big ol barn/farmhouse that looks like it came straight out of a Scooby Doo snapshot. it's dark as hell out. the lone building appearin#blue in the dark. with a single orange lantern lit hanging from the top. i look to my brother who has never lead me astray before.#and I feel like i am part of Scooby Doo. five teenagers in a car. in the middle of the night. wondering where the hell Denny's went.#now finally my brother has some wits to him. and we take a tight u turn and turn ourselves around. good. shows over right? WRONG.#this bitch pulls up YET ANOTHER place on his phone and starts driving 15 MINUTES UP ONTO A DIRT ROAD AND KEEPS DRIVING.#we're going to a haunted bridge boys!#in the middle of the night! at like 3am! the witching hour! great plan broski. sounds awesome. good thinking there.#we get to this haunted bridge. and this mf is barely 5ft across. but the water below is dark and murky and my lil sis INSISTS she sees a#dude down below. so I'm silently freaking out because what the hell do i say to that. she's like. 13. i tell her it'll be okay. because#that's what big/middle bros do. we drive over the bridge. nothing happens. cue relaxation. my brother is audibly disappointed#“well that was useless” bro you almost took us to Denny's in some cannibalistic farmdudes basement. i think I'll take the barely haunted#bridge. my brother. who still wants to show us an adventure. and probably save face in front of his friends. flips us around yet again and#starts heading off into a whole NEW direction. towards the World's Largest Gas Station!#it is like 4am by now. we're hungry. we're cramping. losing our marbles with exhaustion. and still processing our latest episode with the#Mystery Machine. so fine. I'm taking a nap. just don't get us killed in the long run.#we survived. btw. if that wasn't obvious. and we did actually make it to The World's Biggest Gas Station. and it was pretty fun.#as far as gas stations go at least. i got some honey sticks and a lollipop in the shape of a bear. i don't really like honey. but it wascute#there were walls FILLED with stuffed animals.a whole clothing department. a candy shop. and even a full fledged restaurant on the other side#i think there were even two levels to it? i can't remember. but anyways. we eat. we leave. we survive. end of story.

underwater moments w/ Poseidon!reader x Luke
ᡣ𐭩 𝘀𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻
daughter of poseidon! reader x luke castellan 🪸
Tumblr media
IN WHICH.. you’re dating the famous hermes boy 💘
warnings! this fic contains- no betrayal luke 🥳 // percy is a lil bro // fem reader // not all of these are underwater moments
🎧- saturn by sza
[headcannons]
sneaking out for starlit swims !!
you and luke spend your nights secretly swimming under the dark waters of camp half-blood, while the moon grazes the surface and turns the black depths glittery. you and him try to remain quiet, but how could you resist laughter when he almost accidentally drowned, twice?!
the famous underwater kisses <3
with little privacy at the kid-filled camp, you and luke rarely found moments alone. all you had time for were sneaky, quick kisses in between planned activities. as a child of poseidon, you found a way to solve this intimate problem—underwater kisses. creating an air bubble under the lake allowed for a moment with no curious glances—at least from most. (the fishies and a certain pesky brother often interrupt)
going pearl diving!
luke likes to sunbathe in the gleaming sun, resting on the docks while you splash around in the blue lake. you dive down deep, searching for the prettiest pearls underwater and placing him on the wood surface next to him. this could go on for hours, you entertained by the adventure and luke just happy to be in your presence. the next day, luke graciously gifted you a gorgeous necklace made with the pearls you excavated.
surfing and paddle boarding 🏄‍♀️
while the calm waters don’t offer many waves, every once in a while you like to manipulate the liquid so you can surf. not to mention, you love to instruct luke, too. he’s not the best, but he’s willing to give anything a try. (if we’re being honest, he hates it. he hates constantly falling off the board and sharply coming into contact with the water, but he’d do anything if it meant you were happy.)
in contrast, he loves to paddle board with you. it’s more gentle, and he can actually talk to you while in the water.
the olive theory! (but with cherries)
definitelyyyy the type of guy to pretend he doesn’t like cherries just because he knows you love them more. every morning at breakfast, he slides you his small fruit cup with only the cherries remaining, and you eat it up every time. unbeknownst to you, he’s only doing this to see you smile. he loves the way your lips curl up into a smile when you eat them, the juices staining your lips with a shade of red. he would give up anything to see you smile like that. 
carrying a waterproof digital camera around 📸
he loves loves LOVES to take photos of you! whether your swimming in the lake or picking strawberries in the fields, he’s by your side with the camera directed towards you. he’s the number one candid picture taker! and when you ask why, he usually presents you with some dumb excuse or pickup line to conceal the fact that he’s totally whipped for you. 
“ew, stoppp! i look so bad right now! why do you like taking so many photos anyway?”
“dunno. you’re the subject of all my dreams, sweetheart.”
late night beach bonfires
singing, laughing, and cuddling by the warmth of a campfire with all your friends is a weekly occurrence for you and luke. it feels like you’re both just normal teens, living life with no fear of monsters attacking or angry greek gods. plus, he makes BOMB s’mores. 
CHAOTIC game nights with percy 
attempting to play charades with your little brother, but overall he just gets mad and rage quits because you couldn’t guess the word. oh, and we can’t forget the craziest uno nights. you and percy arguing over the rules while luke just stands awkwardly in the corner.
“you can’t place a draw two on a draw four! it doesn’t work that way!”
“yes you can!! suck it up and draw your six cards!”
“uh, guys…? 🧍‍♂️”
the annual cabin decoration contest ! (yes, i made this up)
when that time rolls around, you and percy are DETERMINED to have the best cabin. you hang up seashells, scatter around the prettiest dried coral on shelves, and buy fairy lights for a cozy atmosphere. luke watches from afar as you and percy playfully argue whether a lana del rey poster would “fit the theme.” to be fair, it was a tunnel under OCEAN blvd poster.

hii! can i request a neteyam x metkayina!reader where she’s really quiet/shy (being closer to kiri and tuk) and doesn’t think he notices her a lot, but neteyam is actually very attentive of her and one day he confesses about this in a maybe fluffy/personal moment? i’m sorry if this sounds confusing and thank you in advance. <3
Those Ocean Eyes
|| AS YOU WISH. sorry if it isn’t as good but again, NOT PROOF READ i’m a lil lazy and just woke up
characters: neteyam x metkayina!reader
ratings: SFW , fluffy soft shit , aonung being a butt , neteyam being protective , reader bein all timid 🤭
||
Kiri dipped into the water first, playing around with the sea creatures and Tuk was around collecting shells. Sitting down in the sand, Neteyam and Lo’ak sat on the beach rock next to you and their sisters. You made small drawings in the sand, glancing over to Neteyam occasionally who seemed to be engrossed in Lo’ak talking about his Tulkun.
Each time you looked away, Neteyam glanced at you. Still paying attention to his younger brother talking about his adventures today. You frowned in annoyance, seeing Rotxo and Aonung heading towards you and the Sully’s smugly. Before you knew it, Lo’ak dropped down first much to Neteyams dislike. You kept still, hoping it wouldn’t turn into a fight again, while Aonung was already picking on Lo’ak for his ‘demon blood’. They both tarted pushing each other around, Aonung being right in front of you and honestly he was losing. He kept getting pushed into you, while you struggled getting up in the sand that kept fighting against you. Guess like you were losing too.
Neteyam scowled, dropping down from the rock and hoisting you up carefully, pushing you behind him. “Ay, Skxawngs. Watch where the hell you’re fighting. You could’ve crushed her.” He said with a booming voice. Dusting you off and holding your shoulder protectively. Aonung huffed a small laugh, turning around to say some more bullshit, “If you like her just say that forest boy, she’ll never wanna be your mate anyway-“
Neteyam pushed him back with a strong force, and Aonung tumbled back. Holding his arm out to stop Rotxo. “I said leave, now bro.” Neteyam said before pushing them off into the opposite direction again. You were embarrassed at the mention of you in the conversation. Yet you failed to notice how upset Neteyam got, his breathing growing quick and heavy with annoyance. “You alright?” He asked you, patting the side of your head. You nodded quickly, “Yeah, yeah. It’s nothing i’m not used to around those morons.” You took the first step back, feeling like your heart would explode if you stayed. Tuk came back, along with Kiri. Both of them were ragging you away. reading to make their necklaces with all the shells they ended up finding. You wanted to speak to Neteyam more, but he was already turned around to scold Lo’ak gently.
..
You weaved through the shells intricately, do sucking on each pattern you tried to make. Big shell, medium shell, tiny shells. You hoped Neteyam would find the necklace flattering, and would appreciate it. The salty wind came through, nearly blowing away your vines and leaves. Before you could react s blue hand pressed them down before picking them up and plopping down next to you in the sand.
It was Neteyam. “Ay, that necklace for me?” He said teasingly, his thigh pressing against you. It was like he had no sense of personal space, not that you minded but you thought it was cute.
“Actually it is, it was supposed to be a surprise.” You laid the necklace into the sand, slowly lowering your hands. Neteyam did the same with all the materials, digging up a place to safely put your hard earned vines. Your bright teal eyes met his gold ones, and he smiled, it could show in his eyes too. Your thoughts kept getting louder, yearning for his affection more and more. Even though you were so timid and shy, you were sure his affection could only be platonic, you were always to yourself, or with his little sisters. Introverted like Kiri was, but as playful as Tuk when it came to the right people.
You dropped your hands into your lap. Holding your breath.
“I need to tell you something,”
“I need to tell you something.”
You both laughed, his teeth showing a lot from the coincidence. “Alright, me first.” He said eagerly, not even waiting for a retort. Neteyams body turned to face yours more, the ocean just barely touching the two of you.
Before he started he noticed the glisten in your eyes, how pretty they looked when the sun was setting. “You’re a gentle girl. There’s this soft light about you, always so caring. Helping us learn the ways of the water people, even though you’re so shy, you were the first to talk to me.” Neteyam placed his hand onto your thigh, reassuringly. His heart was beating as fast as yours.
“I see you. I really do. Everything about you. Even those pretty ocean eyes.” He said, leaning in a little.
Your heart almost dropped to your ass, mouth slightly agape from the compliments he showered you with. He noticed your sincerity, and even admitted to loving the shy and introverted bits. You took his hand, crawling into his arms and he welcomed you eagerly. “I’ve never had someone say that. I was drawn to you the moment I saw you Neteyam.” The moment was very heartfelt, both of you pouring your emotions out just from the tight embrace. “I…see you too, Neteyam. I always did.” He held you tighter, a warm feeling washing over him as the waves engulfed you to up to the waist. Neither of you minded, as you both laid in the sand, holding onto each other.

MY DEPRESSION HAS BEEN CURED MY SKIN IS CLEAR MY CROPS ARE FLOURISHING ALL BECAUSE OF THIS ONE IMAGE THIS IS THE YEAR OF ADVENTURE PANDERING LETS FUCKIN GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Tumblr media
Let's break this down one by one ~
This is such a good Sora fit I don't even know how to explain how very much OG Sora this is, the pink tones of the overall sporty outfit perfectly capture all levels of her personality. To top it off she's sharing flower themed cream sandwiches with Piyomon AAAHHH the subtle reference okay merch team you can take a w. Not to mention Sora is perfectly matching with Taichi and the fruit in her sandwich is orange stoooopppp itttt!!!!!
TAICHI OMG who is dressing this boy because that's the most he's ever jocked as a 11 year old. The sweatshirt, cargo pants, matching wristband and the sense to put his goggles down, he is winning the sporty casual fashion show for sure. And of course him and Agumon are enjoying some chicken popcorn, love how they weren't even subtle with the packaging art we all know Japan's favourite fried chicken brand anyway 🤣
Yamato. YAMATO. Y A M A T O. You're 11 can you tone down the cool guy heartthrob behaviour for a minute because I am losing my mind THE DOGTAG CHAIN IM GONNA SCREEAAAMMM ACTUALLY I AM SCREAAAMING AAAAHHHHHHH. He looks so good, there is absolutely no wrong element in his entire outfit, everything is perfectly paired up, a fashionista is among us. The little thumbs up over the onigiri that Gabumon is offering him?? Is he telling Gabumon that he's okay with having one and Gabumon can have the rest because that's the sweet, protective, kind, caring baby he is at heart???🥹🥹🥹The blue and green gradient in the background tho?? Mimato math is mathing bestiesss 🤣
Takeru is just a lil guy, but such a perfect lil guy!!! I like how his outfit has the similar green shade as his anime outfit but they still chose to gave him a new beanie instead which doesn't really match the colour tone of the rest of the fit but it's Takeru so we know that he can pull any hat off and that's what he does!!! Him and Patamon sharing burgers, okay mood, but why is he looking so surprised? I need to know what happened, did he spill some sauce on his overalls? Was the burger too hot to bite? WHAT HAPPENED TAKERU????? 😢
Jou, I see you paired up the plaid pants with a nice long, muted, warm toned jacket BUT I SEE THAT PURPLE SHIRT POKING IN FROM INSIDE and excuse me sir but why that purple with the plaid 😭 I need to see a version where Jou isn't wearing the jacket so I can make an informed rating on this outfit but may I add that in the full merch pic he has paired this look with green and white sneakers...I cannot defend you I am sorry Jou, please try brown loafers next time 😭 But outfit aside, Jou eating a taiyaki with Gomamon is lowkey funny I just know that Gomamon cracked a Marching Fishes joke at least once.
Koushiro...I will not go into detail but I will say it's cute that you have a sweater with a little K on it, it's also very cute that there is a splash of orange in your outfit, who's attention are you vying for it isn't subtle at all bby boy and I am grateful you matched your shoes to your sweater even if the socks are definitely a choice and that blue with orange is also definitely another choice. Good to see your are making choices. I like that him and Tentomon are sharing dango, it's always nice to see Koushiro's fondness towards Japanese traditional snacks hinted at in some way.
MIMI. QUEEN. SLAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!! YOU NEVER EVER MISS MY SWEET BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL. The pastel tones matched with the grey stockings for contrast, that beret and the fuzzy hem boots, you just know she shops at Takashimaya and Isetan and anything below it will just not do 👏🏻 Plus Sora and Mimi are wearing the same tones, which probably means that they pre-planned the outfits together, cuties!!! Also Crepe is such a Mimi™️ choice of dessert but I always get teary eyes when I see Palmon mimic Mimi's gestures, there is just so much love and admiration between them for each other, pure childish wonder 💚 And the crepe even has a cutesy character face on it, which kinda looks like Monzaemon, though I can't be sure but if it is then another win for a subtle reference. Not to mention both Yamato and Mimi look like they've dressed in a more cool and elegant style than the rest like they might be on their way to a date THE MIMAT MATH IS MATHING YALLL!!!
Hikari looks super cute, I think there isn't much official art of her in casual clothing for OG stuff so it's nice to see her in a more cutesy fit suited to her age. The hairband matching the cardigan is such a nice touch!! I can't recall any other casual outfit for OG design Hikari except the War Game and Memorial Party dress, so I think this would be the first time we see Hikari with a hairband and it just looks adorable. Of course she is sharing an ice cream with Tailmon, it's kinda their brand now but like Takeru she's making a surprised expression, perhaps she wasn't expecting Tailmon to offer her a bite of her ice cream?
To conclude, this is probably the best OG artwork we've gotten since Idk maybe the Rainy Day stationery series. This will be sold in advance at the Kamio Store booth at Anime Japan 2024. No other details were mentioned, but the event booth sale feels like a pre-sale before the goods become available more widely at other outlets, hopefully, at some stores that international fans have access too as well.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.
Ayushi out.

One Small Freckle
Pairing: Gale/Tav
Words: no clue
Summary: Whoo boy I woke up this morning and this lil drabble basically wrote itself and I like it so much I thought I’d post it. Self indulgent to the max which is my favourite type of fic to write. Gale has some morning after thoughts. This is based on my Tav but idk I think it’s fairly vague.
Gale lay awake, surrounded by Shadow Weave which terrfied and tempted him in equal measure, thinking.
Gods.
Gods.
He’d meant it as a farewell. He’d meant it as- as a last night, a last wonderful night with the woman he had come to love. He’d meant to show her one more facet of his beloved Weave before the inevitable happened, perhaps to give her something to explore in future. In truth, it had been a selfish, shameful thing, and he’d known it would hurt her more than anything else.
I’m in love with you, too.
He’d made his peace with the fact that his life would pay for his follies. It had all made perfect sense to him. Too much sense. He’d endangered the Weave with his ambition, and Mystra had spurned him, and now, to protect that thing which he loved the most and earn his godess’ forgiveness he simply had to destroy himself.
It had made perfect sense, in his heart, in his mind. No doubt Mystra had known it would, clever, clever thing that she was.
And what would it hurt for the world to have one less grasping wizard in it to sully its wonders? Who would miss him?
His mother, perhaps. And Tara. But the two of them would be safe from the destruction he would cause, far away in Waterdeep. And even more safe, when the threat of the Absolute was gone. They would mourn, but heal. In time.
I’m in love with you, too.
Her hands had callouses on them that scraped against his skin when her fingers danced across it. Those callouses scraped against his own, from the years working with his staff, from writing. Such mundane tasks that he yearned for now. She had one small freckle on the palm of her right hand, just below her thumb, that he could have spent hours admiring. Had she always had it? Or was it from days spent in sunlight adventuring through Faerûn, seeing all those places in the flesh he had only ever seen on paper?
Had he ever loved anything so much as he loved her hands? He remembers the first time they’d touched, trapped in that rock. Warmth eminating from her fingers, even then. If he’d known how the touch would damn him, would he have taken that hand?
Yes. In a thousand different realities. In every lifetime he could concieve of, the answer was yes.
I’m in love with you, too.
He’d attempted to match the colours of his nighttime illusion to her eyes, though he thought he’d come up woefully short. In some light, they seemed grey, like thunderclouds, or green, or blue. Then she would grin, or laugh, and starlight would burst forth from them. Days upon days he could have sat finding the perfect words for that light, for the brown specks that floated in it like leaves on the surface of a pool of starlight. He’d tried to count them, but he hadn’t had the time.
Time. Once he’d thought he’d had enough. He’d thought he would have lifetimes, like Elminster. Thousands of years to unravel the universe, it’s secrets, it’s functions. Now… now when all he wanted was to watch as the corner of her mouth quirked upward, and a dimple appeared on her cheek, now he would run out of that which he had taken for granted for so long.
I’m in love with you, too.
And then. Then he’d made the largest error of them all, and forgotten that she was not a goddess, despite his feelings on the matter, and she would not know to guard her thoughts in the astral plane, when they connected.
Pleasure had ripped through him, as Mystra had shown him, in the way he loved, but knowledge also.
He’d seen her thoughts, the hurt he was causing her, but the love also. A love large enough to match his own, at the least. He’d seen her fears, and her dreams, and her loves. Forests she’d walked through and rivers she’d crossed. Her yearning for greatness and reknown and acceptance. Glimpses of firelight and laughter, of tears and loneliness. Such loneliness it had made him gasp with the pain of it.
They’d mingled and loved like the gods do, but the clumsy fumbling of their mortality had interfered, and Gale had lost himself in the essence of her and had had no desire to find his way back to himself. Not ever.
I’m in love with you, too.
He lay awake in the darkness of his tent. She had fallen asleep after, which he understood. The darkness, the fear of the past days, the battles at Moonrise to rescue their allies, and now this. Now he had added to those burdens.
He’d been walking toward a precipice. Toward the abyss of nothing. Away from the pain of his heartbreak. Away from the physical pain of the orb and his arcane hunger. He’d stared into that darkness that had been beckoning since the day the orb had stolen his powers, his goddess, his life. Mystra had given him a chance to find solace in that darkness. To redeem himself in it, and save the Weave as he did. It was right. It had to be right, or she would not have commanded it, no matter her anger toward him.
I’m in love with you, too.
Away from the darkness there was pain. Strife, death, and pain. But there was life. There was Karlach, with her easy smiles and childlike hope and vulgar humour. There was Astarion, with his snide remarks and his hunger for power that matched Gale’s in a way he did not quite like, but who was by his side when he needed it. There was Shadowheart, who was closed off and sullen but who healed his scrapes and bruises with a wink and always shared her wine. There was Wyll, with his bravery and goodness and who would help Gale think of a word to rhyme with “pool” if he asked. Lae’zel, who could barely hide her smile when he asked her about her home amongst the stars and who was stronger than the rest of them combined. Weave save him, it gave him strength too.
And there was Tav.
I’m in love with you, too.
Before Elminster’s appearance he hadn’t thought about Mystra in days. The realisation had terrified and elated him in equal measure. If she had asked this of him two months ago, before the tadpole, he would not have hesitated, not for a moment.
Tav’s lips had brushed over the mark of the orb on his chest, kissing that which he had been cast out and condemned for. Her lips were soft, despite their time exposed to the elements. He wanted to ask her how she managed it. He wanted to ask her so many things that he did not have time for now.
I’m in love with you, too.
And in the darkness of his tent, surrounded by the Shadow Weave which tempted and terrified him in equal measure he finally realised that something in his heart and mind had changed.
He did not want to die.
The thought terrified him worse than anything else he’d experienced in the past weeks, and there had been some truly bloodcurdling sights.
Somewhere along their journey, perhaps next to the fire when Wyll was telling stories, or fighting with Tav at his back, knowing what she would do even before she did it, or walking along sharing thoughts with Astarion and Lae’zel, somewhere along their journey he had started living again.
Despite the orb, despite the tadpole, despite their dire, almost inevitable odds of catastrophic failure, he had started living again.
And gods, was he enjoying it.
I’m in love with you, too.
The night before he had bonded with her in a way he had not bonded with anyone in his life, not even Mystra, for she had always kept herself apart from him. Tav had had no such boundaries, and he had kept none from her.
Perhaps they would all die before this was over even without him detonating the orb. Perhaps they would transform into illithids and lose their souls. Perhaps this Absolute would crush them without so much as a second thought.
Or perhaps they would triumph, slim as their chances might be.
I’m in love with you, too.
But he would face it at her side. If they found this Heart of the Absolute and they decided it was best he go forth with his plan, then gladly he would. But until then, if she asked him to live he would live. If she asked him to defy Mystra, he would. If there was even the smallest chance that he would one day have the time to write poetry about that small freckle beneath her thumb, he would defy Ao himself to have it. He didn’t want to die. He wanted to live. He wanted to live with her, with their friends beside them.
And in the darkness of his tent, surrounded by the Shadow Weave which tempted and terrified him in equal measure, he grinned, and decided he would attempt to get some sleep before what would surely be a grueling day. Perhaps his last. Perhaps.
But certainty was ever an elusive creature when it came to adventures such as theirs. Hadn’t he been telling Tav so ever since Elminster had appeared?
He closed his eyes.
I’m in love with you, too.

Tumblr media
➞︎ it isn't often that you guys get to go on adventures together.
➞︎ most of the time its a bunch of mini side quests with one another at different times.
➞︎ when you have afternoon classes, gojo and geto are usually finishing up their day as well.
➞︎ which turns into the three of you taking the train into tokyo, blowing gojo's money on sweets and food.
➞︎ sometimes you guys catch a car meet on the off chance y'all end up on that side of town when its happening (a/n: i hc the group to be into cars but geto, toji, and choso are the biggest gear heads)
➞︎ some days, you and nanami spend mornings together.
➞︎ mostly spent in the nooks and crannies of libraries or by the window in a bakery/cafe.
➞︎ sometimes, when you guys have book club, he'll put together a picnic for the two of you.
➞︎ there's a garden with a bunch of Japanese maple trees that the two of you found once.

➞︎ surprisingly, choso started tagging along with you to toji's practices/matches after a couple months of you doing it.
➞︎ while you were focused on the 'pr' side of things for the boxer, choso took on the role of sparring partner.
➞︎ so now, you had not one, but two gym bros on your hands as choso started hitting the gym srsly.
➞︎ don't worry, it's not always a fist fight with those guys.
➞︎ choso is always finding some new spot to try, mostly art or herbal shops, and toji drives while you tag along for the ride.
➞︎ meanwhile, toji's always finding some mountain to hike! gd its exhausting keeping up with him sometimes!
➞︎ but they're the only two to stick around for when you have your 'bring it on' marathon, so you endure :)
➞︎ geto is in the tattoo shop late at night some weekends and whenever you're available, you pop a squat on the comfy futon he has in his space and chill.
➞︎ he appreciates the company whenever he's working on a client after hours or working hard on designing a new piece.
➞︎ he uses you as a gauge for when he's been working too long. if you've been silent for more than an hour, he knows it's time to wrap it up.
➞︎ gojo is a slut for his monthly massages. he got you one as a birthday gift one year and y'all have been going together ever since.
➞︎ he's always the one you're trying bazaar shit with. cos why tf did he fire up the private jet just so the two of you could visit the blue lagoon.

➞︎ toji secretly likes to cook.
➞︎ like loves to cook actually.
➞︎ you only found out when it was just the two of you at home one weekend (nanami on a business retreat with geto, gojo visiting his family (begrudgingly he says), and choso went camping with his brother's) and toji threw down after the joint sesh y'all had.
➞︎ i mean the spread was spreadin'
➞︎ he swore you to secrecy, cooking was smth he didn't want the other's taking advantage of (he's just scared of rejection ((that wouldn't happen)) 🙄).
➞︎ one time y'all took a dessert class and learned to make matcha swiss rolls 🤤
➞︎ toji looked cute in his lil apron and hat ;)
➞︎ choso invites you to art exhibits with him and drags you along to the newest infrastructure being built in the city
➞︎ there's a local pottery/glass blowing shop in downtown Sendai, that the two of you frequent to make clay pottery.
➞︎ at some point, choso designs the most beautiful sculpture out of clay and all of you show up for he showcases it at his first art show!
➞︎ you were the sculpture
➞︎ every once in awhile you guys link up for a group activity.

Hey heyy, i read a small au idea somewhere (i think over on twitter? I realy dont remember) where the idea was that because of germas modifications, the vinsmoke siblings, sanji included, grew way faster than is normal
So this causes a 15 year old sanji to appear 19 and 2 years later appewr 21 when hes really 17... You get where im going with this?
So what if with this in mind the crew just thinks hes 19 and later 21 bc he looks abt the same age as zoro but then WCI happens and they basicly find out this this boy is only a lil bit older then Chopper
And i fee like they wouldn't treat him a whole lot differently, still trust him the same, still think hes insanely capable and one of the strongest of the crew. But i do feel like it would have SOME effect ya know?
Idk i thought it was an interesting idea and wanted to know if your thoughts on it :D
God that hurts when you think about it? Like Sanji was so much younger when he went through those things. What a good AU though. Like he was six when he was on the rock with Zeff which means he's just....so fucked up.
Like and he had to have told Zeff and them while working so they're looking at this kid, who appears to be thirteen but is actually nine. They don't treat him any different, still teach him about cooking and fighting and he still gets all the threats. He's not as girl crazy though just because he's so young.
Sanji doesn't realize how old the crew thinks he is, he's fifteen and on an adventure to find the All Blue! They're going to save Nami! He shows up to Kamabakka at fifteen which makes the Okama suddenly sit him down for so many talks what the fuck did the chef tell you jesus christ as he trains.
It all comes to a head when they get to Wano because Judge and everyone was talking about a year difference between Sanji and Pudding. Zoro says it's weird 'cause the Cook is only a few months older than him and they all know Zoro is twenty one but Sanji just has a moment and realizes 'right, modifications'.
"I'm seventeen." Sanji says.
"Haha, you're funny!" Luffy laughs.
"No, really. I'm seventeen. I look older because of the modifications my family did, those were really the only ones that took." Sanji explains.
"Wait, what? But physically you're twenty one?" Chopper asks.
"Yeah, I look twenty one but I'm not." Sanji says and then lists off his birthday and everyone is staring at him because he's barely older than Chopper and they just now realized that the flaming, sky walking, third man of the monster trio is a fucking child.

The hologram of his loved one sizzled softly in silence till the blue light disappeared, leaving the stars twinkling sadly before them. Casey can only feel his throat closed up with a choking sob yet no sound comes from it but the gentle sniffles of grief. Grief, he almost laughed, grief is supposed to be something that happens once in a while yet for him it’s everyday, for him it’s Master Raph, for him it’s Master Donnie, for him it’s his loving mom, for him it’s Commander O’neil, for him it’s Master Michelangelo, for him…it’s Master Leonardo, and now everyone until he is the only sole evidence his world exists. He doesn’t want to get attached to this world, to the people who are still living, and breathing and so alive because inevitably- they will disappear, just like everyone who he loved in his life. “You know…” the young Leonardo spoke uncharacteristically, without charisma, without energy, without anything that made Leo Leo. “I don’t know what it’s like to lose everyone in one day.” he whispered, the turtle’s hand still holding onto Casey in a reassuring manner with his gaze still stuck on where his holographic future-self used to be “But I know what it’s like to grieve.” he chuckled tiredly, Casey could only lean close yet he still refuse to look at Leo “There was this line dad said when he finally opened up his trauma to us.” a silent pause took place for a moment, until he continued “There is a type of love that is only experienced through sadness, and a type of joy that is only experienced through grief.” In the cold wind and the gentle lullaby of twinkling lights, his eyes slightly widen. “Pain is the price that we pay for love, and the only way to not feel pain is to never feel love.” Casey finally looked at Leo, his sole reason on wanting to get rid of these fond feelings when he sees this worlds’ family, the feeling of where Raph will teach him how to wrestle, where Donnie will rant about science, where his mom will call him into crazy adventures, where Mikey will make him eat different types of food, where April will teach him about the outside human world, where Splinter will let him watch TV with him, or where Leo will make so many bad and cringey jokes. Where everything made Casey so happy. “But love is what makes life meaningful, so don’t stop loving Casey.” “Because we sure hell will never stop loving you.” Casey felt safe arms around him, hugging him in such a familiar way it made him finally burst. To cry out how unfair the universe is to him, how unfair that he has to grow up in a time with no rest, with no moment of clarity, with no moment to tell everyone he loves that he misses them, he misses them so much. Leo didn’t say anything anymore, yet his soft hums will tell Casey- ‘I’m here, we are here, we will not leave you anymore.’ And for a moment, and maybe tomorrow, that would be enough for him to keep on smiling, to keep on being genuinely happy, to keep holding on. ‘Anatawa Hitorijanai.’ He could hear Master Leonardo whisper to him. ‘Anatawa Hitorijanai.’ ------------------------------------ (some lines here are from Cinema Therapy because those guys can make me cry like a lil bitch, so anyways, we need more angst fuel for my boy Casey cus my man needs to reach his angst potential like our turtle bois >:((( )
(I also apologize if there is typos, its been long since i ever type a long ass story!!)

The Chains Pokémon partner parings explained.
Hi this is that post where I try to explain my reasoning for pairing each Link with their Pokémon partner + a little fun fact about each Pokémon.
Sky with Dragonite
Sky and Dragonite have quite a few things in common. Their both big, loveable, caring beings who are always ready and willing to help those in need, their both also A LOT stronger than they initially seem. Sky being a literal demon god slayer, and Dragonite being a Pseudo Legendary Pokémon that can control the weather at will.
I imagine that Sky met his Dragonite before his adventure when it was still a little Dratini, they love to take naps together, and go on long flights around Skyloft.
Fun Fact: Pseudo Legendary Pokémon get their title from the fact they have a base stat total of 600, which is the same as most Legendary Pokémon, and are extremely difficult to evolve, Dratini taking 55 levels, or 207,968 experience points earned to evolve into its final form, Dragonite.
Four and his Eeveelutions
To be honest there really wasn’t any other Pokémon besides the Eevee line that had enough evolutions or unique forms/variants to give Four. But even then it’s still a good pick, Eevee can evolve into one of 8 different Pokémon. Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, and Espeon being the most obvious picks for Four/The Colours, Jolteon being the next best thing for Green since there’s no Flying type Eeveelution, and Espeon for Vio due to his book smarts and relation to Shadow, with Vaporeon and Flareon being perfectly fitting for Blue and Red respectively.
I picture Four meeting his Pokémon between his adventures in Minish Cap and Four Swords Adventures, as Eevee, and then taking them with him through the latter adventure. And while Green, Blue, and Red found the evolution stones to evolve their Eevee at some point or another throughout the adventure, Vio and Shadow’s Eevee evolved during their time together when Vio was pretending to be a traitor (Eevee evolves into Espeon and Umbreon through high Friendship during the Day and Night respectively). And that while the Colours were struggling to work together during FSA, their Pokémon were working with each other just fine. After Shadow sacrificed himself, Four cared for his Umbreon.
Fun Fact: Shadow’s Umbreon likely knows Shadow isn’t really gone, but has no solid way of communicating this to Four.
Time with Celebi
Pretty simple really. Time is a time travelling fairy boy from the forest who’s possessed by a deity, Celebi is a time travelling forest guardian fairy who IS a deity.
I believe that Time would meet his Celebi some time after Majora’s Mask, but before the War of Ages.
Fun Fact: Time’s Celebi is nicknamed Navi.
Double Fun Fact: Time’s Celebi Navi may or may not actually be several different Celebi (Cuz there’s actually like a bajilion of these lil onions babies all zipping throughout time and space) and Time has yet to figure this out.
Note: Still a’nt actually settled on whether Navi IS multiple different Celebi or just one single Celebi. Tell me which one you guys think it is in the comments. I genuinely love to hear your thoughts and feedback.
Or I might make a poll or something.
Legend and Lopunny
With the fact that Lopunny is a rabbit Pokémon with a pink shiny, the connection seems pretty surface level, and that I paired the two just cuz I genuinely like Lopunny (Which I admittedly do) but when you look a little deeper into Lopunny’s character, they actually do have more in common with Legend other then aesthetics.
For one, Lopunny evolves via Friendship (Like Espeon and Umbreon) HOWEVER Buneary, Lopunny’s pre evolution, is actually hard to befriend at first, as Wild Buneary always start out with a friendship level of 0, (something usually reserved for Legendary Pokémon) Legend too is a bit rough around the edges and a little hard to get to open up at first, but a loyal companion and friend once he lets people in. As well Lopunny, while not one to go out of it’s way to pick fights, IS a strong and capable fighter, who could hold its own alongside Legend in combat, and much like how Legend has a wide variety of tools in his arsenal, Lopunny is able to learn a wide variety of Moves. Plus both Legend and Lopunny could totally put on one heck of a show if they wanted to.
I would think Legend meets his Lopunny as a Buneary after all his adventures where set and done (But before LU of course) and while they didn’t get along all too well at first, they actually warmed up to each other rather quickly and have become the best of pals since.
Fun Fact: Due to how Pokémon breeding and Egg Groups work, Legend’s Lopunny is able to be siblings with Fable’s partner Pokémon, a Delcatty.
Twilight with Herdier
I wanted to pare Twilight with a Pokémon that would not only work well with his profession as a Rancher, but also not overshadow or replace Epona’s relationship with Twilight, nor the Chains relationship with Wolfie. So I went with Herdier, A loyal and sturdy hard working dog Pokémon that just like real dogs has been working with humans both on and off the farm since ancient times.
Just like Legend and his Pokémon, Twilight meet his Herdier back when it was still just a little Lillipup some time after Twilight Princess, and they do everything together! Work, play, fight, and just overall in joying the simple things in life, Herdier loves to play with the village children, and is happy with its life with Twilight overall.
Fun Fact: Twilight’s Herdier is actually already passed the level when it should have evolved, but hasn’t due to it holding an Everstone, a item that, when held, prevents a Pokémon from evolving even when the conditions for evolution have been met. Herdier has the Everstone because it’s happy as a it is right now, and is in no real rush to evolve, and Twilight respects his Pokémon’s wishes to say a Herdier.
Wind and Clauncher
Again a pretty simple reasoning behind this pairing. Wind loves the Great Sea, the colour blue, and lobsters. Clauncher is a Water type Pokémon that lives in the sea, that is blue, and is a lobster.
Again just like Legend and Twilight, Wind meets his Clauncher after his adventures in Phantom Hourglass, but before LU. Wind loves his Clauncher, and Clauncher does love Wind back, tho that doesn’t mean they don’t get in fights, as Wind and his Clauncher are both hotheads. (Wind taking weeks to get Clauncher to stop attacking Arill’s Wingull, or any Wingull in general for that matter, and being VARY upset with Clauncher during that time. And Clauncher being upset when Wind thinks that he isn’t good enough as a hero or a big brother, despite it being completely untrue, casting Clauncher to become moody with Wind) But they can still both be sincere when it really counts. And will comfort the other when the other is feeling down.
Fun Fact: Wind’s actually had his Clauncher for the same amount of time that Legend and Twilight have had their Pokémon for, but Clauncher has yet to evolve due to Wind lacking the Time to properly train it.
Hyrule with Ribombee
I paired Hyrule with Ribombee due to their similarities. Hyrule is half Fairy, and Ribombee is a duel Fairy type Pokémon. Hyrule is a capable Magic user, and Ribombee is a strong Special Attacker. Hyrule has the ability heal his allies, as so too does Ribombee. Not to mention their both small and cute.
I imagine that Hyrule actually meet his Ribombee as a Cutiefly during his first adventure in Zelda 1, and that while Hyrule was apprehensive about bringing a tiny little Bug Pokémon like Cutiefly on a dangerous quest, Cutiefly did a surprisingly good job holding it’s own against the monsters in the dungeons. And after that, the two have been best buddies ever since.
Fun Fact: Hyrule’s Ribombee has the Ability Honey Gather. Meaning after a battle, Ribombee has a chance of just finding some random honey. Ribombee happily shares this questionable sourced with Hyrule afterwards.
Warriors and Aegislash
Picking out a Pokémon partner for Warriors was the trickiest, I initially thought about giving him a Kingambit, but felt that it didn’t really suit him, as while Warriors does lead an army and is a tactician, I felt that Kingambit’s style of fighting didn’t really suit Warriors. Aegislash however are known to work with people and leaders such as kings, and are known to be good judges of character, which I feel was more fitting. Also I thought it’d be cool to have Warriors use his Aegislash like a sword. (The Pokédex says you shouldn’t do this, but it’s been established that the Pokédex is being written by edgy 12 year olds, and a character did it in one of the mangas, so it should be fine)
Warriors met his Aegislash during the War of Eras, not sure if was already an Aegislash or not tho. Despite the communication barrier between them, the two often do battle planning together, and fight really well together. Aegislash and Warriors a’nt afraid to tell the other off if they were bing stupid, or pushing themselves too far, but also are happy to compliment each other if the other for doing well.
Fun Fact: Warriors Aegislash has a Sassy Nature, meaning it loves bitter foods and hates sweets. Don’t ask me how a sentient ghost sword can eat, it just does.
Wild and his Hisuian Zoroark
And finally we come to Wild and his Zoroark. When I was looking through the Pokédex to see what Mons would fit well with Wild and saw Zoroark, I knew that it would make the perfect partner Pokémon for Wild. A loyal, wild fox Pokémon and master of trickery that will protect its pack no matter what.
Much like the others in the Chain, Wild did not meet his partner as a fully evolved Pokémon, but as a Zorua. But he didn’t meet it as a Hisuian Zorua. They meet each other when they were kids, before Wild had the weight of the world on his shoulders, and back when Zoroark was still a regular Zorua, they became close friends, and where together through thick and thin. Zorua was there when Wild became a knight, Zorua was there Wild when he became Flora’s appointed knight, Zorua was there during the memories, Zorua stood by Wild’s side when Calamity Ganon attacked, Zorua died by Wild’s side during the Battle of Fort Hateno.
And while Link was placed into the Shrine of Resurrection so that he may revive and defeat the Calamity 100 years later, Zorua was not. But Zorua did not need the Shrine of Resurrection. Through the power of they’re hatred for Calamity Ganon, and they’re love for their trainer Wild, Zorua rose from the dead, reborn into the world anew in the form of a Hisuian Zorua. They wanted on the Great Plateau for over a hundred years for Wild to revive, likely evolving during that time. And when Wild finally awoke, it was the happiest day of they’re life. But it was also they’re life, as Wild remembered nothing of his life before the calamity. But even then Zoroark stuck by Wild’s side throughout his adventures in BotW, through thick and thin, and they defeated Calamity Ganon together, along with the Champions, and Zelda. And while the spirits of the Champions and the King passed on afterwards, Zoroark did not, as always Zoroark continued to stand by Wild’s side, through TotK, and Beyond.
The Fun Fact about Wild’s Hisuian Zoroark, is that it uses its power of illusions to help Wild recall his lost memories.
OK! This was a long post but I did it, I hope you all find my progress interesting, and that I did a good enough job of explaining it. If you want to look into this sorta stuff yourself go for it. Sorry for the Wild bias, I hope you have a lovely day/night and goodbye.

which of the multiple Sonics we've had over the years is your favourite? I mean like in terms of games and movies and series, which do you think is the best portrayal of him?
OOF that's a hard one, honestly it's difficult to decide. I really grown to appreciate and love each and every interpterion of Sonic, his character is just so flexible and malleable in a way that is just so special to me.
Like Sonic is such an upbeat guy, he can be loud, energetic, kind, extroverted, a dumbass but in a lovable way.
But he can also he quiet, shy, introverted, grumpy, sarcastic and a deep thinker. He's a book worm, he's a jock, he's SONIC!
How could I choose? But, for the sake of your question, and because this funky lil blue dude practically raised me growing up. I'd have to say Jason Griffith's Sonic, I grew up with him for a bit until Roger, AND I LOVE ROGER DONT GET ME WRONG!! But Jason's Sonic holds a special place in my heart.
Tumblr media
Sonic Unleashed, Sonic X, The Story Book games like SATBK, and more! I LOVED his portrayal of Sonic. The confidence, cockiness, but gentle nature, really left an impression on me on how Sonic ACTS, how he IS, he is really just a guy who loves adventure and has an ultimate understanding of his own power and how he uses it to defend his planet and family/friends.
My first Sonic game was Generations, that's where I began to continue to grow up with Roger. His portrayal of Sonic is also one of my favs, he brings the sarcastic teen out of him. And I find it so funny and endearing every time. Even as time goes on, and new voice actors or portrayals of our favorite blue boi continue to change and grow, I'll never stop loving this silly dude. Thats a promise xD
Tumblr media
I ALSO LOVE MOVIE SONIC TO DEATH AND SONIC PRIME AND I WILL STAND ON THIS HILL AND SHOUT IT FOR THE REST OF TIME LMAOO

Boy oh boy get ready for another Rant
This time about my bug insert in Obsidian lanterns gator boys series!!
Again, doing this so I won't mix up her backstory with my other listeners
Tumblr media
Korey Adiel is maybe 18-20 years old, I haven't decided yet
She/They pronouns :3
Half Korean!!
While energetic and optimistic with her friends, she can be a bit wary with new people
Fucking thrill seeker /hj
Became a hunter solely for the thrill (and because of a deal she made that I'll probably talk about in a later post)
Half of her scars are literally just from her being an adrenaline junkie, once (multiple times) when she was 13 years old, she climbed up a tree to see if it'll hurt when she jumps from it, proceeded to break her leg in the process
Her family is actually doing pretty decent in wealth, not really struggling with money, only with their children's chaos
Parents are pretty neglectful since they kinda just let her get in trouble and barely spare her a glance when she gets hurt
She has a homemade star necklace from her dad, and she treasures it dearly despite the negligence
Silly little gal just wants validation from others :(
Korey's grandparents are the complete opposite of their parents though
They watch her like a hawk when she's spending the night at their house. Bro is NOT getting in trouble while they're watching
They have 2 brothers, Ezra is the oldest at 24 years old, and Noah is the youngest at 14.
Basically, Korey is the forgotten middle child /hj
Korey was actually raised as a boy for most of their childhood as their parents didn't really want a daughter. Noah was basically treated as her "replacement"
Ezra fully indulges her chaotic behavior, and sometimes, they string along Noah into their shenanigans
Jesus christ, they rain hell fire when the 3 of them team up. The Adiel siblings all have a very strong bond with each other!
She has heterochromia! Blue and Hazel eyes :3
They have a scrapbook where they journal and doodle flowers and bugs 'n lil facts about them, her favorite is the rosy maple moth!
Wasn't even supposed to be at the swamp. the girl just has a terrible sense of direction
Even when they got their leg injured, they still had the urge to run around and cause as much chaos as possible
They get along with almost all of the hunters they work with! Almost. (cough, Anthony, cough)
She has a LOT of warmth in her. In consequence, she gets fevers a lot but barely ever gets a cold!
Will stab you AS a warning /hj
Thanks to her risky adventures, she's pretty agile and fast
Has hangouts with Raine and Esther from @willowve01 and @asmrbrainrot every weekend where they just talk about their day :3
And that's all! Might change a few things as the story goes on tho

[✯Why Not Both?✯] neteyam + lo'ak x fem! Metkayina na'vi
Context: |You met Neteyam and Lo'ak about two years ago. Little did you know, they both were madly obsessed with you and maybe even in love..|
Recommended song: Low by SZA
Disclaimer: All the characters are aged up to 18 yrs old or older
Neteyam: 'She is one of the finest woman I've ever seen'
Lo'ak: 'She's so beautiful. I think I'm in love...'
wrd count: 877 (Kinda short sorry)
Tumblr media
♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
Neteyam and Lo'ak couldn't keep their eyes off of you as you swam through the water. Their eyes tracked every move you made. You came up from the water, "You know I can see you guys watching me right?" You stared at the boys smiling. "Pfft, yeah of course we did" Lo'ak quickly said while looking dead in the eyes. You smiled, walking out of the water. They both got up quickly to see where you were going. "I'm just going to eat. Wanna come with me?" "Yes" In sync the boys look at each other. They followed shortly behind you as you walked to your hut. Your parents were cooking. "Hey mama. Can Ne and Lo'ak come over for dinner, by the way they're already here" "Yes of course you didn't even have to ask" Neteyam nudged Lo'ak with his shoulder in response to using his nickname. Rolling his eyes, Lo'ak scrambled to sit next to you. You ate while talking to your parents about the adventures you and the boys went on. "And then Lo'ak tripped and fell in water" You laughed at the thought of his with mud all over his face. He giggled in embarrassment. It was now night as you three sat near the water, talking. "Do you ever think that-" You paused to stand up "Do you ever think that we're just teens sitting around doing absolutely nothing" "Why don't we go somewhere then?" Neteyam suggested. "Yea why not" Lo'ak got up to call his ilu. You called yours as well, lastly Neteyam. You swam around the water playing games and searching for something to do. You found a little island while riding around. "Let's go here" You lead your ilu over to the island. "It looks creepy Y/N" Lo'ak attached himself to you. "What? Are you scared" "No I just think that it's creepy" "Whatever" Neteyam went in front of you guys. "Hey wait up" You detached yourself from the blue boy walking slowly behind. "Come on slow poke" You ran to catch up with Neteyam.
♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
It was a little while later, you, Lo'ak and Neteyam found a cliff you guys sat and looked at the sky. You spoke to break the silence, "Hey wanna play a game?" "Like what" Neteyam was always ready for a game "Like.. 2 truths and 1 lie" "Sure why not" Lo'ak was invested now. "I'll go first" You turn so you can see both them. "I've never seen a forest before, I love my mom, and my dad is a asshole" They both laughed "It's gotta be the forest one" Lo'ak shook his head "Yeah we still can't believe you've never seen a forest" Neteyam said toughing your leg. Lo'ak gave Neteyam a dirty look. "You go next lil bro" Lo'ak rolled his eyes "I like someone, Neteyam still sleeps with mom, and I still wet the bed" You all stayed quiet. "They all sound true" You covered your mouth to laugh. He shoved your shoulder "Guess" You thought for a little "Well you could definitely like someone, there's so many pretty girls there. I bet Neteyam doesn't" You giggled while looking at him "And You most definitely wet the bed so that's the truth" "Stop messing around Y/N" Lo'ak had a dead face on "Fine you like someone. Who is it? Is it Tsireya?! Ooo you guys would be so cu-" "No not her" "Then you" You were generally confused. You saw them together often. Lo'ak looked at Neteyam "It's you Y/N. I like you" He said while still looking at Neteyam. "Bro what the fuck" Neteyam got up, Lo'ak following. "You like her?" "Yes dude ever since I laid my eyes on her , I knew I liked her" Neteyam looked at the ground, his braids covering his face. "I liker her too" You were shocked by their confessions. You stood up with them. Neteyam pushed Lo'ak for him to loose his balance. "Hey" You yelled, but both of them were to angry with each other. "I literally told you the other day I had my eye on her" "Well I go to her first. You thought that she was just a random girl who wanted to be friends with us in the first place" You turned your head as each one of them spoke. Suddenly, Lo'ak punched Neteyam in the face. You snapped "Hey!" You yelled louder. They both stopped and looked at you. "This is not how you guys act. You're supposed to be brothers, not rivals" They gave each other blank stares. Lo'ak spoke, "Well do you like one of us back?" You stood there silently. They looked at you confused. "I like both of you" "Well you have to choose" Neteyam came closer to you, taking your hand into his. You looked at him with love in your eyes. Lo'ak came up too, holding your other hand. "Why not the both of you?" "Y/N" You looked at Lo'ak. Taking your hands away from them, you kissed each one of them on the cheek. "It's your choice, I've already made my decision" You switched your eyes from one to the other. They looked at each other.
"Well, how would it work?"

1. * Who was your first ever OC? Do you still “use" them? How have they evolved over time?
27. What are your favourite movies?
😛
1: Ooooo, I have to really think hard about that. As of right now, what I can think of is that there are two OCs that come to mind. They were both made around the same time but for different things, the older of the two is an orange feline creature with a robotic arm named Penny and I was always drawing her throughout school. She originally was more snake like but i remember changing her design into more of an anthropomorphic feline instead. I would look for the old drawings of her, but they are stashed in a box underneath my bed. She's currently in the drafts lol
The second OC was made during my notorious Fnaf faze, her name was Lynx, and she was a quirky lil critter. This is the most recent picture I have of her I made back I think 2 or 3 years ago?
Tumblr media
She was the first of many. She too- is benched XD
And yes. I drew a lot of furrys throughout my entire childhood and teens because I couldn't draw humans for shit back then. I only started drawing people when I turned 17, I'm nearly 22- time really flies lol
2: Oh Boy! I've gotta lot of favourites. The Cornetto trilogy (Or anything Edgar Write makes), Zombieland, Megamind, Snatch, Grosse Point Blank, The Adventures of Tintin, Indiana Jones, The Goonies, Pulp Fiction (Any Quenton Tarantino movies) and lastly the Blues Brothers.
There are a shit ton more, but I'll be here typing all night lol. A lot of these movies influenced my tastes in music, humour and helped me think of ways to better write my stories, how to frame the scenes, and how characters interact with one another. Fun stuff :]

What are your top five xianxia cdramas? And, on the other end, what are your top five historical kdramas (any time period - I'm not well versed in this to know the various types names yet xD)? Oh, and lastly, your top five drama recs that are the most (generally) underrated? Thanks!
nice!
TOP FIVE XIANXIA (& I'M ALSO GONNA INCLUDE XUANHUAN)
love and redemption. girl meets boy. boy's part of a cursed theatre troupe and part of masochism tango of reincarnation with girl that lasts 10 life times. girl is actually kind of the god of war. crack, gender reversal, gender fuckery at large, feminist and queer friendly. incredible OST. just all-around one of my favorite dramas ever.
lost you forever (part 1). a xuanhuan vs. xianxia, but im not passionate enough about 5 xianxia for this list lol. another drama with gender fuckery. a fantastic FL and beautiful relationship building (and unbuilding) and character-driven story. dont even need the second part for this to be a favorite!!
love between fairy and devil. all those tropes you fucking loved when you were like 13 on ff.net given a lot of heart and near-perfect execution (aside from that ending). awesome characters, beautiful costumes and art direction. super addicting and bingeable
the legends. bai lu playing a powerhungry demoness and acquiring a dysfunctional harem in the process. xu kai looking like a sad blue-haired puppy. a monk that creates an entire demon because he has 1 boner. sismance. i had a lot of fun with this one and pointedly did not watch the last 5 or so eps lol
till the end of the moon. there's parts i genuinely hate and would not watch ever again. there's parts that are fucking incredible. sort of like the main couple, i have a love/hate relationship with this drama but when it hits it really hits
honorable mention: eternal love/10 miles of peach blossoms (xianxia fuckery at its finest weighed down somewhat by tedious side plots and one of the most infuriating 2nd FLs of all time)
TOP FIVE HISTORICAL KDRAMAS
gaksital/bridal mask. set in the 1930s. inverse character arcs between the hero and villain. dysfunctional romance amped up to the nth level. high stakes, high consequences, and a cast full of well-developed and written characters. bring tissues
empress ki. girl crushing and girl bossing her way through two kingdoms, one of the best FLs of all time. with her is a besotted baby enemy emperor and a Noble Good besotted powerless king as she goes from slave to smuggler to concubine to empress. chef's kiss
the princess' man. you want feral wrecks for your male leads? female leads ready to throw down in a parking lot? if you like lovers to enemy (?) lovers and star-crossed romances this one is a must
the king loves. this one's also on my underrated list. the first 4ish eps are a chore, but if you get past them you have the love triangle to end all love triangles, interesting palace politics with a fascinating "evil" empress, and im siwan getting to go a lil unhinged as a treat. it's the definition of an idol drama but gd did i love this and i binged the hell out of it no regrets
mr sunshine. le cinema!!! an interesting time in history (1870s-1880s) with a wide range of flawed but compelling characters centered around one of the most badass FLs of all time. winner of the #1 second lead syndrome contest for me with dong mae. only downfall to this one is i felt negative chemistry with the endgame ship but the show is good enough without it
honorable mention: chicago typewriter isnt on this list because it's only kind of half a historical drama BUT OMG WATCH IT. it's in my top 3 kdrama and while it has a slow build once it kicks off it fucking goes off
TOP FIVE UNDERRATED DRAMAS
the king loves as mentioned above. i think why it has a lower rating is the first handful of eps are kind of a snoozefest and there's a bit of an upset with the romance (which i was 900% for). but it's a fucking fun ride and full of awesome goryeo palace drama adventures
kairos. not underrated, since it has decent scores on reviewer sites, but underhyped? not enough people have seen this one and it's an incredible time-travel thriller that i found way more interesting than other popular dramas of its type like signal
cheese in the trap. the ending's a hot mess, but compared to how some 2020-onward dramas are ending it's poetry. a solid adaptation of a really great webtoon, awesome cinematography, and one of the few dramas ive seen that actually capture the campus/college life experience right
discovery of romance. the emotional cheating element causes a lot of folks to hate it/jump ship, but i love this one (and gd BOTH the fl and ml emotionally cheat ftr he's not innocent in this hot mess). jung yumi + eric mun are one of my favorite kdrama duos and they kill it, and kim seulgi plays an incredible second female lead
when a man falls in love. man people HATED this one but i think it's a blast when you're in the mood for mess + gangsters. if you're into watching fucked up romances with severe power imbalances and the dysfunction that follows, this one's for you. it's not perfect but definitely not deserving of its 6.8 MDL rating (gd!)

Wedding Dress
Whoop whoop! Here's day 28! I hope you still like it even though it's a lil late! I had quite a fun time writing this one :)! Lemme know your thoughts!
AO3
“It’s bad luck to see a bride in her wedding dress, you know,” Marinette said, shooting a grin over her shoulder as she heard Adrien step inside the room she was working in. A sewing needle was in her mouth as she worked on the white, lacy gown.
“Ah, yes, but you’re not exactly in the wedding dress, now are you?” he asked, raising a brow as he smirked back. “You’re just creating it.”
Marinette simply laughed, standing up with a roll of her eyes. She stepped back, leaning her head against Adrien’s shoulder as she admired the dress she had begun creating for their wedding. “Looks good though, no?” she murmured softly. “I hated it in the beginning but I think it’s growing on me. I’m almost positive I’ll like it when it’s time for our wedding.”
Adrien chuckled back, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her closer. "It looks more than good, Marinette. It looks positively stunning, just like you." His words were sincere, filled with admiration for both the dress and the woman beside him.
She blushed, turning to meet his gaze. "You always know how to make me feel special," she said softly, placing a gentle kiss on his cheek. "I can't wait for you to see the finished piece on our wedding day."
"I can't wait either," Adrien replied, his eyes sparkling with excitement. “I’m sure it’ll look much better on its final model.”
As they stood together, Marinette felt a wave of gratitude wash over her. The journey that had led them to this point had been filled with challenges and adventures, but through it all, their love had only grown stronger. 
She couldn't help but marvel at how far they had come since the days of her not-so-secret crush on him. It still seemed almost baffling that she was set to marry him. The boy she had been dreaming of since she was a young teenager.
Adrien ran a hand through her hair, his touch gentle and reassuring. "Remember when we first met?" he mused, a nostalgic smile playing on his lips.
Marinette chuckled, a fond glimmer in her eyes. "How could I forget? You were the new student in school and I positively hated you for putting that chewing gum on my seat."
He groaned, tapping her nose playfully which she scrunched at him. “How many times do I need to tell you that I never put that chewing gum on your seat? That was all Chloé’s doing. I was just trying to help take it off.”
“So you say,” she teased, a smirk teasing at the edges of her lips.
“Alright, alright,” Adrien chuckled, putting his hands up. “The second time we met.”
Marinette hummed, leaving his arms to rock on her heels in front of him with an even larger grin. “Mmm, do you perhaps mean the time when we saved Paris together and you fell head over heels for me when I stood up to Hawkmoth?”
Adrien rolled his eyes, closing the distance as he grasped her waist. He leaned down, his nose grazing against hers lightly. “Alright then, the third time we met. The time you fell positively head over heels for me. When I handed you my umbrella that day in the rain and you blushed and stammered as it closed directly on top of this cute little head of yours.”
Marinette threw her head back in a loud laugh. She shook her head after a bit, shaking her head at him with a pair of amused, glimmering blue eyes. Their banter was easy, built up over years of knowing and loving each other. She leaned into Adrien's embrace, feeling a sense of contentment wash over her. She knew with absolute certainty that she had found her soulmate in him, someone who understood her dreams and supported her every step of the way.
"Speaking of designs," Adrien began, his eyes lighting up with excitement, "have you thought about what song we'll dance to at our wedding?"
Marinette's heart fluttered at the mention of their wedding. It was a day she had dreamed about since before they had even started dating, a day where they would pledge their love to each other in front of their friends and family.
"I have a few ideas," she admitted with a playful glint in her eyes. "But it has to be something special, something that captures the magic of this moment."
Adrien nodded in agreement, his expression thoughtful. "We'll know it when we hear it," he said confidently. "Just like we knew we were meant to be together."
“Mmm, don’t you think that might take a little longer?” She giggled. “God knows it took us quite a while to realize that we were both in love with each other.”
“You’re right,” he chuckled. “Hopefully it doesn’t take us as long as that. Why don’t we try listening to a few now.”
Adrien tapped a few buttons on his phone, letting a beautiful, soft piano melody play around them. Marinette hummed lightly, her eyes fluttering closed as she moved her head along to the slow rhythm of the song. It really was lovely.
When her eyes opened, she saw his arm extended out to her. Smiling, Marinette let him pull her into a gentle dance, swaying to the melody of their potential future wedding song. In that moment, surrounded by love and possibility, Marinette couldn't help but smile. She was exactly where she was meant to be, in Adrien's arms, discussing the plans that would draw them closer to their forever. 
As they swayed together, their conversation drifted to more wedding planning details, each of them bringing up their different ideas from the venue to the guest list. Each decision brought them closer together, solidifying their commitment to each other.
As the sun began to set outside, casting a warm glow into the room, Marinette felt a surge of anticipation for their future. She knew that no matter what challenges lay ahead, as long as they faced them together, they could overcome anything.

Yeah alright let's see how this lil villain!donald au shakes out, shall we? Prologue here if you're interested lol (it'll provide some, probably needed, context)
(i still need a name for this au urghhhh)
New one-shot/chapter whatever under the cut
Too good to be true. That was all Dewey thought as he sank into the backseat of the car, arms crossed, pout twisting his beak. His brothers similarly displayed their disappointment, though Huey seemed quite nervous for some reason.
Louie was leaning against the door, head placed on his hand as he stared through the car’s window.
“I’m glad I got to you before anything could happen.”, Donald was saying, adjusting the car’s mirror to look back at his nephews. “And you don’t have to worry! I’ll make sure nothing that dangerous happens to you again.”
Dewey muttered “Great…”, under his breath, tone sarcastic, while Louie let out a long, disappointed breath.
“Yup.”, was Huey’s contribution, hands tightly clasping his seatbelt. “Never again! That was way too dangerous! Why would we wanna do that again? Hahahaha!”
Even through his own emotional turmoil, Dewey noted that his brother was behaving oddly. He looked over, finding that Huey was sweating with anxiety, but when they made eyecontact, the red triplet only mouthed “Later.”.
The blue triplet glanced over to Louie, but he was still looking out the window. Most likely lamenting the loss of his future inheritance.
Donald, meanwhile, was frowning in the front seat. His hands clenched around the wheel as he took a turn. His eyes flickered over to glance at his boys once more.
Huey’s disposition screamed trauma and Donald couldn’t blame him. Adventures weren’t for the faint of heart, and while the red triplet had always excelled at being a Junior Woodchuck, anything more intense than a family cook-out would generally send him spiralling.
And now Scrooge had taken him on an adventure – to Atlantis! Where they’d probably faced deathtraps and monsters and… well, they’d definitely faced Glomgold.
Donald grimaced. Facing that guy tended to leave one with burns and tinnitus, all thanks to his fable for bombs. Or shark bites.
He’d have to take the day off tomorrow, to make sure his nephews were fine and wouldn’t face any long-term consequences from this excursion. Director Bradford would understand; he was the one who’d informed Donald of Scrooge’s little adventure, after all.
Even after Della disappeared, he risked her sons in exactly the same way---
The car came to an abrupt halt, surprising even Donald himself, even though he was the driver. He blinked a couple of times, finding that he'd driven back to the houseboat easily enough. Still, he shouldn’t make zoning out like that a habit; it was dangerous.
“Alright, boys, let’s go.”
-+-+-
“Guys!”
“What?!”
Huey was smiling. Dewey didn’t understand why. What was there to smile about?!
They’d just been banned from ever hanging out with their unquestionably coolest relative ever, and were expected to be grateful for it! As if exploring Atlantis wasn’t the most exciting, awesome thing they’d ever done in their lives!
But nooooo, uncle Donald was too concerned about their safety. Pfff.
Sure, he’d always distrusted Scrooge – had always talked about him caring more for money than family, being too reckless, untrustworthy – but uncle Scrooge had saved Dewey from several deathtraps! And he’d trusted Dewey to recognize the mechanism behind the trap in the main treasure chamber!
And---
Was Huey pulling a Walkie Talkie out of his hat?!
“I smuggled a Walkie Talkie out of the mansion so we can talk to Webby!”
“You did what?!”, exclaimed Louie, that sentence alone enough to pull him out of his stupor. His eyes widened as he stared at the Walkie Talkie.
Then his attention slid upwards, narrowing as he returned Huey’s anxiously happy gaze. “Who are you and what did you do to Huey?!”
The red triplet let out a nervous laugh, averting his eyes. “Well, Webby kinda shoved it into my hands while we were going through the ruins of Atlantis and I was supposed to give it back to her but then uncle Donald showed up and I totally forgot.”
“That makes more sense.”, Louie admitted as he leaned in to expect the device. “You think it has enough reach to get to the mansion?”
“Only one way to find out!”, Dewey exclaimed, grabbing the Walkie from Huey. “Webby? Can you hear me?”
There was a tense moment of silence, each triplet staring down at the Walkie Talkie in anticipation. But nothing happened.
Dewey groaned and threw the device aside. “Of course it doesn’t work, we’ll be stuck in this stupid boat with no friends until the end of our lives.”
“I’ll become a crazy old cat guy.”, Louie muttered, expression slipping back into despondence.
Huey rubbed his shoulder, feeling bad to have given his brothers hope only for it to immediately shatter into nothing. He went over to pick the Walkie Talkie up, where Dewey had thrown it. “Maybe there’s something in the Guidebook about extending it's range…?”, he said, though it came out more like a question.
A sudden crackle of static filled the room.
Everyone’s attention snapped to the Walkie in Huey’s hand.
“Dewey?! Is that you?!”
The blue triplet was at his brother’s side in an instant, shouting into the Walkie Talkie. “Webby! You can hear us!”
-+-+-
“Are you sure about this, boys? Maybe we should just have a quiet day in. I can still call in sick at work…”
“It’s fine, uncle Donald. This is exactly what we need, now, something nice and familiar! We’ll be fine, you’ll see.”, Louie smiled, the expression purposely comforting.
Dewey was giving double thumbs-up in the back, while Huey kept stealing glances at the building behind them.
“Besides, what’s a safer place for us than Funso’s? We’ve been here dozens of times!”
Donald sighed, finally relenting. “…Fine. I gave Huey some money for food and if there’s any trouble – any whatsoever! – You call me and I’ll come pick you up, okay?”
Louie nodded. “Of course! Thank you, uncle Donald.”
The adult nodded, pulling at his tie once more as he turned. Before he actually got back into the car, however, he leaned down to Louie, expression serious. “Keep an eye on Dewey for me?”
The green triplet gave a grave nod. “Always do, uncle Donald.”
That wasn’t entirely true; it was a responsibility shared between him and Huey, generally, but Donald knew that well enough. He nodded. “Alright. Bye, boys! See you later!”
The car drove off and Dewey shouted with excitement. “Let’s go!”
“Why are we sneaking behind uncle Donald’s back for this, again? He’s always so worried about us, making a friend should be a positive, shouldn’t it?”, Huey was evidently having second thoughts, wringing his hands, gaze darting around anxiously.
“You’re kidding, right?”, Louie responded, grabbing Huey’s arm and pulling him after Dewey toward Funzo’s. “Any other friend, sure, maybe, but this is Webby we’re talking about. He’ll spend one minute in her presence and decide she’s too adventurous for us.”
He stopped, glancing around to make sure Dewey was out of earshot as he leaned in and whispered, “You know he barely tolerates us hanging around Dewey. You think he’ll be okay with Webby?”
The red triplet sighed. “I know, I know, I’m just… Ugh, I hate lying to uncle Donald.”
“You get used to it.”, Louie assured, giving Huey a semi-comforting pat on the back.
“GUYS!”
Suddenly, there were arms thrown around their shoulders and an excitable duckling was pushing herself between them. “Oh my gosh I can’t believe you asked to meet me outside after everything! This is the best! I brought everything we could possibly need – I have a grappling hook and heat vision goggles and---”
“Woah, hey, Webby, calm down.”, Louie interrupted, extricating himself from the hug. “You won’t need all that!”
“Oh, I’m just so excited!”, she gasped, eyes catching on Dewey who’d come back outside to check on where his brothers were. “Dewey!”
And she ran off to tackle him, too, into a hug.
Louie gestured at the display, one eyebrow raised. “You see what I mean?”
Huey sighed. “Yeah, yeah, I get it. Now come on, we gotta show her the ropes before she and Dewey burn the place down.”
-+-+-
“Wh- you took them down by yerselves?”, Scrooge exclaimed, looking the scene over. Beakley had walked over to Webby, proudly giving her granddaughter some headpats.
“Yep!”, Dewey answered, wide grin on his beak. “You should have seen us! It was awesome!”
“Though, honestly, most of the credit should go to Webby. She was leading around Ma Beagle like a champion!”, Huey added.
“No, shhhh, it was all us!”, Louie interrupted, before leaning in close to his brother, “Maybe he’ll give us a reward! You wanna split that four ways?”
The glare Huey sent was quickly answered by an innocent raise of Louie’s hands. “What? She has a grandma! I’m sure she’ll get a reward from her!”
The talking was abruptly cut off as a single, incensed voice echoed through Funso’s. “What’s going on here?!”
“Ah, phooey.”, everyone sighed under their breath, as Donald stomped his way over.
His expression was furious, which meant he’d most likely already made up his mind about what had happened here, and there was little anyone could do to change it. The triplets knew the look well.
Dewey ducked behind Huey. He was definitely getting grounded.
“I told you to leave them alone!”, Donald yelled, to everyone’s surprise, at Scrooge.
“The lads were kidnapped by the Beagle Boys!”, the trillionaire responded, anger creeping into his voice as well, “What, you want me to leave the wee ones whenever they call for help?!”
“Well if you hadn’t taken them to Atlantis the Beagle Boys would never have known them!”
“The lads were practically begging me to go adventuring with them! I’d have had to be heartless to leave them behind!”
“Oh, so now you’re concerned about being heartless?!”
“What’s that supposed to mean?!”
“You know exactly what it means!”
“The spear of Selene was not---!”
“GUYS!”
Silence, everyone’s gazes settled on Huey who shrunk a bit into himself at the excess amount of attention. “Uh, I just, maybe we should stop fighting…?”
Donald sighed. “…fine. Whatever. He knows what I think of him.”, he glared at his uncle as he turned around.
“Now, come on boys. We’re going home.”
Two dejected ducklings moved to follow their uncle, but the third glanced up at the man who had given him the most amazing adventure ever, the man who’d run half-way across town to save them from being kidnapped, with nobody but his housekeeper as back-up. He looked over at Webby, who’s face had sunk into dejected sadness, who’d never gone out of the mansion until she’d met the triplets. The first true friend they’d made outside of each other.
And he said, “No.”
Donald stopped, flinched unnoticeably, but turned around. Faced Dewey with an expression that would have made the duckling wither in fear were he not flanked by somebody who’d saved his life no less than three times.
“What was that?”
“I said no. I’m not going back home with you.”
“Dewey—“, Huey began, but the blue triplet cut him off with a decisive shake of his head.
“You’ve only ever told us that uncle Scrooge is a terrible, selfish person, but the only terrible, selfish person I see is you.”, Louie sucked in a surprised gasp of air, “He saved my life! All our lives! And he didn’t even yell at us afterwards! These past two days were the most amazing of my entire life! I’m not letting you ruin that!”
Silence hung between them, even as Donald tried to string together a response.
He was beaten to it by Louie. “He… has a point, uncle Donald…”, a disbelieving glare, a hurt thing that wanted to return pain as much as it received, was turned on the green triplet. He shrunk back into himself, averted his eyes, but kept talking. “You’ve never trusted us to do anything more than spend an afternoon at Funso’s. You ground us anytime we do anything – or anytime anyone says we did anything, even though we didn’t! And that’s…”, he trailed off, shrinking further into himself. He didn’t know why he’d started talking. He didn’t know why he kept talking. But maybe, just maybe, he was sick of being treated like a fragile thing, yet also as though he were a delinquent. Maybe he was sick of the treatment, of the miniscule amount of time the triplets had ever spent away from the houseboat.
He met Donald’s eyes again, something that was almost resolve shining in his eyes. “That’s not okay.”
He stepped back, just enough to end up beside Scrooge. He was greeted by an unexpected touch to his shoulder.
When he glanced up, his uncle was giving him a soft smile. “It’s alright, lad.”
Louie didn’t quite feel like that, he felt like crying, but he gave a shallow nod.
There was only one triplet still stood between Scrooge and Donald, one triplet who had surprise scribbled over his expression, surprise and uncertainty.
“Huey?”, Donald asked, voice barely above a whisper. His expression had shut off, not at all displaying the emotions burning away inside.
“I…”, the red triplet began, but his voice died in his throat as he glanced between his brothers and his uncle.
He itched to pull out the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, as if it contained any sort of answer to this situation. As a shield against the amount of eyes that lay on him, awaiting his decision. His skin crawled under his feathers.
He’d never gone against uncle Donald’s rules – not really. He had rarely been punished, especially not as severely as his brothers. The most he ever got was a week-long grounding, while Dewey at points had received entire months.
Not that being grounded was particularly different from normal, but still. He’d never been locked into their room, or been disallowed to attend dinner – having to eat away from their family – for any of his transgressions. He’d seen it in his brothers, of course, had seen them heaped with punishments that only ended up pushing them further toward misbehavior, but—
He’d always reasoned that it was that way because of how they’d acted. That, if they could just listen, could just stop misbehaving – like Huey, if they could just act like Huey – then everything would be fine.
But they couldn’t do that. They never could. They weren’t him, and no punishment could ever make them be him.
Huey’s gaze flickered from Donald to Scrooge, to his brothers, to the floor at his feet.
Uncle Scrooge had understood that after spending two days with them.
How could uncle Donald not, after raising them for ten years?
Huey’s hands balled into fists. He reached up, pulled out the meagre allowance their uncle had given him for lunch. He made eye-contact with Donald as he threw the money at him.
“Sorry, uncle Donald.”
He stepped back, felt reassured when Louie and Dewey each wrapped a hand around his.
-+-+-
The next day found the newly formed family stomping through snow, hiking gear loaded on their backs, ready to make it all the way up to the top of Mount Neverrest.
Well, all except Louie. The green triplet had looked quite put out when Scrooge had mentioned there was no treasure to be found on this adventure. “Why did I even come along…”, he muttered, kicking a pebble on the ascent.
“You know, you don’t have to come if ye don’t want to.”, his uncle remarked, watching the disappointed duckling trotting behind their group.
Louie stopped, eyes widening. “Wait, really?”, then his expression fell, “Ugh, you want me to wait in the plane, don’t you? No, I’d rather climb a mountain, actually.”
“In the plane?”, Scrooge echoed, a genuinely puzzled expression decorating his face. “I mean, only if you want to. I thought more along the lines of drinking hot cocoa in the town, until we return.”
Louie’s eyes widened again.
Before he could say anything else, Huey spoke up. “Isn’t that incredibly unsafe?”, he questioned, “Being all alone? In a foreign town?”
“Ach,”, Scrooge responded, waving the concerns away with one hand, “It’s a tourist town, everyone here speaks english. The crime rate here is incredibly low and besides, Louie already stole my credit card. I’m sure he could pay off a couple of criminals until we return and hunt them down to get my money back.”
The green triplet tensed. “Oh, he, you know about that.”
“It’s alright, lad.”, Scrooge assured, before a somewhat serious expression overtook his face, “Though please don’t overdo it with the purchases, alright? We already have way too much junk with all the equipment Launchpad bought.”
“You’ll thank me when we’re not dying of ice fever!”, said pilot replied, giving a thumbs-up.
“Sooo… I can really stay in the town? Unsupervised?”, Louie asked, just to be safe, voice somewhere on the edge of uncertainty.
“’Course, lad! I trust ye, besides, we’ll be back before sundown.”
The green triplet ran forward and hugged his uncle, before throwing off his climbing equipment and taking off toward the town.
Scrooge shook his head fondly. “Never seen a lad that age so concerned with safety. What’s up with that?”
Huey shrugged.
Dewey responded: “Oh, it’s cause uncle Donald never let us do anything on our own and whenever we did do anything on our own we’d get grounded or something and now we have a crippling fear of--- hey, Webby, no, we’re not far enough up yet!”, the blue triplet ran over to where Webby had planted her sled in the snow. “Maximum opportune moment!”
“Ah.”, Scrooge said, blinking a couple of times, “I see.”
--+---+--+---+--
Yeah. :D
Louie, after their confrontation with Donald, to Huey: Okay, but did you have to give him back the money?
