Hii! Can you do ghoap x reader fluff? Like cuddles with mild flirting (from soap, obviously) and like soap is the little spoon, because in return he gets head scratches in return, reader in the middle, and Simon as the big spoon just pressing his face into the crook of readers neck?

Would rlly apreciate it <3

-🌑

i loved this idea when i read it and then proceeded to take far too long to actually answer it lmao BUT!! here it is,, ghoap x fem!reader fluff - ty for the request 💓

you picked up the cheap jar of pasta sauce and compared it to the branded version stacked next to it. as far as you could tell, the ingredients were the same and the little veg chunks included weren’t any smaller.

you nodded to yourself. it was decided, you weren’t paying two quid extra just for a name, fuck dolmio.

you looked higher to the top shelf and frowned when you saw the pasta had been pushed away from the edge and you’d be unable to reach it on your own.

“need a hand, dove?”

you turned to see a handsome man with a mohawk beelining towards you, his eyes tracing your frame with hot familiarity. without waiting for your response, he bullied his way into your space to reach over you for the pasta. barely stepping back, he handed you the pack and looked you up and down.

“thanks, stranger,” you said, holding back a laugh at his amused smile. you saw the moment he decided to play along.

“pretty skirt,” he said and nodded down to your bare legs peeking out beneath the denim.

“hm, my boyfriend got me it,” you said, a little teasingly.

“oh? and this boyfriend, he’s left ye all alone to do the shoppin’ has he?”

“no, he’ll be back soon. and he’s kinda protective, won’t be happy seeing me talking to other guys,” you said trying not to smile.

“ah’m no’ scared,” he scoffed, his own smile breaking out as he looked around the aisle eagerly for the aforementioned boyfriend.

“i don’t know, he’s pretty big and strong, wears a scary mask,” you said.

“aye? reminds me o’ my boyfriend,” he said and you finally giggled, leaning in to kiss him and giving up playing pretend.

“dove, they got their tiger bread in stock again,” simon said as he rounded the corner of the aisle and interrupting your kiss. “i ha’n’t ‘ad this in ages.” simon barely paused at the unexpected appearance of johnny, his eyes turning up in the corners as he smiled under his mask. “johnny, look, tiger bread.”

“yeah, i seen, si,” johnny said fondly, crowding you back against the trolley. “only getting the one loaf?”

simon paused. “hm. you’re right.”

you snorted as he dropped the bread into the trolley before heading back to the bakery section and leaving the pair of you alone again.

“work was a fookin’ drag, dove, cannae stand all this paperwork they’re keepin’ me busy with,” johnny groaned into your temple. you petted his arm consolingly before turning back to your list and shopping trolley.

“you were injured less than a month back, john, you can’t have been expecting to be back in the field so soon?” you hummed as you continued shopping with johnny leant over your back.

his silence spoke volumes.

you shook your head as you made your way through the store and waved simon over as you passed him by, hoping he hadn’t harassed the bakery staff into making more tiger loaves last minute for him. the absolute fiend.

“wha’s wrong with him?” simon asked as he got back, hands full as he nodded to johnny’s slumped frame. you refrained from asking simon if you really needed three tiger breads and instead nudged your other boyfriend up from your shoulder.

“he’s bored,” you said easily, grinning when johnny pulled back properly to send you a betrayed look.

“fuck’s sake. c’mere,” simon huffed before dipping down to kiss him, chuffing a laugh as johnny sputtered at the woollen texture of the mask in between them. “you’ll be back in no time. just behave or it’ll be longer.”

“ye sound like cap,” johnny grimaced. he wiped a hand down his tired face. “when are we goin’ home, hm? fuckin’ knackered, could do with a nap before dinner.”

“y’drive ‘ere?” ghost asked while you grabbed a box of eggs, checking for any cracked inside.

“aye.”

“then you can leave whenever,” ghost said flatly, though the glint of his eyes in the overhead lights betrayed his amusement at johnny’s plight.

johnny pouted.

“yer cruel, si. tell him, dove, he’s heartless,” johnny bemoaned dramatically.

“you’re cruel and heartless, simon, would you prefer strawberry jam or raspberry for a change?”

“could be a treat,” ghost conceded.

johnny groaned at the both of you, pinching your hip when you laughed.

“you both know i cannae sleep without someone’s arms around me,” he huffed, turning his big puppy eyes on you both.

you caved immediately.

“aw poor baby,” you cooed, biting your lip when you saw simon roll his eyes. “let’s get this done quick then, yeah? go grab the burgers we like from the frozen section and that ice cream we got a couple weeks back.”

“yes, ma’am.” johnny jogged off.

“si, can i trust you not to make your way back to the bakery if i give you a list of items to grab?”

“no,” he admitted without shame. “i saw the lad in the back prepping more for tomorrow, think i could convince ‘im to cook ‘em now for me if given the time.”

“right. hand holding it is as we find the toiletries then. ‘s like herding cats with you two.”

simon hummed, his eyes trained on the section you knew the bakery to be hidden in.

—

once home, johnny packed away the majority of your shopping in record time, snatching the jam from simon’s hands and almost throwing it onto the work top before plying his mask up one handed and dragging him down into a rough kiss with the other. you watched, amused, with raised eyebrows as johnny dragged him back towards the bedroom desperately, waving a hand at you and gasping out a needy, “dove, c’mon, stop fucking around,” in between wet kisses.

you didn’t need to be told twice before attaching your hands onto simon’s thick waist from behind, guiding them from bumping into any furniture or walls as they stumbled blind to the bedroom.

johnny pulled back with a dopey smile and pushed simon none too gently onto the bed. you took advantage of his lowered height and pulled off his mask completely, rubbing a gentle hand over his buzz cut hair and down to his jaw. you leant in for a soft peck before feeling johnny’s hands and arms wrap around your soft stomach.

he clung to you, nuzzling at your cheek over your shoulder until you turned in his arms to share your attention.

you heard the bed creak as simon settled further up the bed as johnny kissed you. you shuffled back, parting from johnny just long enough to get your bearings and climb onto the bed, simon’s hands moving to guide you back as johnny hummed against your lips.

you flopped back into simon’s arms, got comfortable as he wrapped you up and held you tight against him.

johnny sighed in relief at the sight and shuffled down so he could rest his head on your chest.

you gathered him close and laughed when he started whining when your hands stayed on his shoulders.

“so needy johnny, have you ever heard the phrase ‘patience is a virtue’?” you teased as you started to run your nails through his hair, lightly scratching until he sighed and dropped his body weight against you and simon.

“too t’red,” he mumbled.

simon lifted his warm hand from your hip and draped it heavily over the back of johnny’s neck, keeping him close. soon enough, the scot was snoring.

you tried not to laugh, your chest bouncing johnny with your muffled chuckles. “i think that might be a record.”

“tired lamb,” simon said condescendingly, but he rubbed his thumb lovingly over the soft skin behind johnny’s ear.

“don’t be mean.” you grinned back at him.

simon hummed and rested his head into the crook of your neck, tucking you in closer with the arm still wrapped underneath your waist. “not bein’ mean.”

he nipped at your neck, a soft nibble that had you gasping and clenching your thick thighs around the one johnny had slipped inbetween.

“prick,” you huffed without malice when he stopped and let out a long tired breath in your ear. he hummed with closed eyes, clearly not listening.

you chuffed a laugh into johnny’s hair. the low thrum of arousal simon had brought on was easy enough to ignore but you’d have rather he’d finished what he started. instead, you tucked your cold toes between his large calves behind you in penance and tugged johnny even closer, enough to smother him. with your arse perched perfectly in simon’s lap and johnny nestled close to his second favourite place on your body, you were sure they’d give you what you were after once their nap is over. you closed your eyes with a smile; you could wait for them to get their energy up, and you loved your puppy piles just as much as they did.

who could have seen it coming: the more faithful remake of my favourite csp brush feels infinitely better that the quick one that only mimicked the brush shape

[tass3l]

you mentioned a tadc x ffxiv au a bit ago, and i've been very curious about your ideas on that! sooo hassel and/or caine thoughts in ffxiv?

hiya!! thank u for the question! i'll admit i was. very high when i made that post LMAO and i havent really thought or developed the idea any further.

it came about because i was finishing up dawntrail on a roleplay alt. i really enjoy interphos even if my overall feelings towards dawntrail were mixed (not bad i just wish they didn't pull a stormblood 2.0 with it) but ANYWAYS i digress.

(slight dawntrail spoilers, obviously. also really recommend you check out the phase 1 music for queen eternal by itself. it slaps so hard)

in this au i would imagine caine to be similar to sphene. maybe not intentionally uh. killing a bunch of people for their aether but still ultimately powerless against his core programming. perhaps the circus could be the game's version of living memory and the crew get trapped there as pseudo-endless... maybe the circus is a shard's last ditch effort at preserving humanity through technology. idk. lots of possibilities

that's all i really got anyways :') as much as i love caine being capable of emotions he's still a program at the end of the day. some things you can't change. Unless? 👀

other than that i've debated on what class hassel would be and. honestly probably summoner LOL

also here are the other's classes if ur curious

pomni - bard bc Funny

ragatha - white mage.. or astrologian? def a healer

gangle - pictomancer. for obvious reasons

zooble - honestly its a tie between reaper and dark knight. or black mage. i cant decide 💔

jax - warrior though i can see viper or gunbreaker working too

kinger - scholar :] faeries are a type of bug if you squint hard enough

that clampett post really opened my eyes, to the point I'm a touch teary at the moment. i love earnestness and love and sincerity and and the pig and duck.

(this post in question!)

I'M SO GLAD TO HEAR THIS!!! WAHH THAT'S GREAT 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 extremely happy it could be informative and touching!! FOR REAL THOUGHHH... i love many different shades of the pig and duck, and My pig and duck (the ones that live in my head and pull the levers that make me do and say things) borrow so many different things from so many different directors--who my favorite director is irt them is honestly really fruitless, because my view of them has just. amalgamated into its own. but i really do love the Clampett dynamic for how formative it is. i love when Porky is threatening horrible violence and i love when Daffy is being a petty dumbass.. but i love it because i can default back to the standard Clampett set when really enacting their characters, i can point back to that warm and friendly (if not a little Odd) dynamic of the early years and be like "but it balances out"

i also love seeing all the old production art/publicity art from that era too, where they're the face of the studio... i got locked in a live bidding war over this and almost bid an obscene amount of money over this with one other person 3,000 miles away, but let them have it because it was getting into 4 digits and i love the pig and duck. but not yet enough to drop that much money on them. i set a threshold for myself and immediately surpassed it and i’m actually glad i lost because my wallet would be screaming at me. BUT IT’S SO CUTE LOOK AT THEM

there’s just something so charming about seeing their dumb smiling mugs together… in a world where these characters are known for hating and killing each other, or if they are paired together smiling, it’s the most fake and corporately sanitized Thing possible.. there’s just such an earnest here. it really gets to me.

this one does not really have the same heartwarming earnest, because every time i see it my brain immediately registers it as "Stephen King's Carrie touched Daffy deeply" and i imagine an elaborate scenario that led up to this and then Porky killing him (metaphorically, but who knows) after and it makes me laugh a lot. still, blood paint aside, i like that they're bundled together in advertising

i don't know where the original photo is, but there's a photo of the 1941 WB animator's strike (that lasted for, what, 6 days? but it was effective, yay!) and i like that you can see them in the background

BUT YEAH!! I'M SO HAPPY TO HEAR THIS, i love when they're mean and stupid together (in the right way), but i really do have such a fondness for when they're buds early on.. it's what their entire dynamic was built on! and there's something sweet about seeing these characters and cartoons sort of grow up together. and, again, it's made so much more special given that this dynamic is exclusive only to Porky and Daffy. out of the entire franchise! Daffy literally wouldn't exist without Porky, in multiple senses! so it makes me so happy that they were made a Thing so early on, and with such great success.

i mean it just doesn't get better than this, folks

I’ve put off posting this for months because I wanted to find my comics so I could talk about how she fits into this one story wise, but I’ve officially given up on that so AT LONG LAST here’s Lauren in The Midnight Giant!

Comic Lauren is younger and a little less mature than her show counterpart, she has less of a parental role towards Hilda and enjoys messing with her. She’s considered a lot less…reliable by her mother. But she genuinely tries, she does everything she can to help her family and prove to her Mum that she’s capable, but that’s a little hard when Johanna’s focus is on Hilda’s shenanigans so often…

Some individual drawings!

out of nowhere thought but i do really feel like i'm coming close to eschewing every label i've ever used entirely; my thesis on unstable sense of self is shifting too much to find any worth in holding onto them
