Serious question.

Do you think we’ll see the parents/family of each of the guys???

Like, We’ve been TEASED with Ace’s brother, that I’m starting to think it’s just a reference to that Alice in Wonderland park character in Japan and nothing else….

Jack’s family, Ruggie’s grandma, Falena, Maleficia, Ms.Rosehearts, Just now Vil’s dad is in the picture which I am really happy but now I’m wondering about his mom, and so Deuce’s mom.

I mean, some HAVE a silhouette!! It could mean they do have a design in the making/ready to show. They could’ve shown us Falena in the Tamashina (hope I said that correctly) event, but didn’t (prolly to make Leona not so σ(▼□▼メ) and it’s understandable)

Anyhow, any idea/headcannon about this? Who do you want to see first?

I'm wondering if everyone might eventually get a travel event? like they've now introduced with Vil's that it doesn't have to be specifically hometowns, so that opens things up a lot! (especially if they have to figure out how to do three separate Coral Sea visits) (how would that even work otherwise)

but yeah, I hope everyone gets a chance! there's a lot of backstory characters I would LOVE to meet. :D :D :D though I do think some of them don't really suit the more light-hearted tone of the events (pretty sure you're right about that being why Falena wasn't in Tamashina-Mina, that would've just been. too much for Leona.) so like...we're probably not ever going to meet the Rosehearts. or Maleficia (although I maintain that this would be THE funniest possible way to introduce her outside of the main story, and actually I would love this a lot, can we please Twst) (I need to see her to put Malleus in a froofy little outfit and tell him what a handsome boy he is). but they've sprung surprises like Kifaji on us, and honestly anyone who shows up and tells embarrassing stories about characters' childhoods is good in my book!

characters off the top of my head who I most want to meet: literally any of the Zigvolts, Azul's mom, Ace's brother, Che'nya's grandfather (<- I think he would be a good one for Riddle) (please just any non-terrible adult in his life), any member of Rook's family because I need to see how they managed to produce him, and...really just whoever they can come up with for Silver.

If you're still in the mood for culinary abominations, I have a very simple suggestion

Couscous seasoned with parsley, salt, lemon juice, and ranch :)

I personally think it tastes very ok

My Brother in Christ that’s a regular meal

daydreaming könig being a dick when he feels slighted and i know you have something to say on the matter 🎤

i absolutely do

Will be absolutely incensed if you take up the role of KorTac’s designated sniper. You’re a decent shot, sure, but you can’t possibly be better than him. He’s sure your position was awarded based on size alone (or lack thereof) and not actual merit, and if he knows otherwise deep down, he admits it to neither you nor himself.

All bets are off on the sparring mat. König doesn’t go soft while sparring, per say, but he’s cognizant of his size and normally affords his sparring partners some gentleness as a courtesy. Not you. His wounded pride gets the better of him, and he wipes the floor with you like you’re nothing. When he picks you up and drops you hard on the mat, the air rushing out of your lungs, your fellow operators, spectating on the side, let out a collective wince. He doesn’t help you up. It’s poor form all around, and his ears burn when he hears the disapproving mutterings of his coworkers. “I thought this was a sparring match, not a pillow fight,” he tries to jest, voice thin with nervous tension, but he doesn’t get a laugh in response, just sidelong glances and a dressing-down from Hutch after the fact. You give him a wide berth afterwards, and he tells himself that that’s just fine.

None of it is your fault, but that doesn’t matter. He shoulder checks you in the halls, makes snide remarks on comms when you flub a shot. He could’ve done it better, he thinks. If they’d afforded him the opportunity. Never mind that you didn’t ask for the position, didn’t make the rules on size restrictions — he’s childlike in his anger and frustration and it redirects onto you, and the worst part is something in him knows it’s unwarranted, that he’s being cruel, and the shame makes him squirm, makes his chest feel tight.

And when you finally snap at him? He has nothing to say in his defense. He feels ashamed when you confront him, like you’d shone a light on something ugly inside him. He’s trying to get something out in reply, grasping to make a snarky comment, but his mouth gapes open ineffectually, because he has nothing. Because you’re right, and he knows you’re right, and the fact he’s forced to acknowledge his own poor behavior makes his hands twist into fists at his sides, nails digging into his palms.

He feels like a schoolboy being scolded, like a child caught defacing a bathroom wall or picking on a peer. He hates it, he hates that you’re right, hates the hurt look on your face, hates the way your words choke in your throat, he swears up and down he hates you, because that’s easier than apologizing.

got a reply to my important email and they only responded to the least important part of it

[lupins-hehim-pussy]

There was a joke in the Wriothesley Not-Birthday arc that didn't make the cut but it basically was someone being like "YOU WERE SKINNY??" when looking at Sigewinne's toddler pictures with her dad (Neuvillette is the one taking them, obviously). And Wriothesley is like "I was in the hospital for like a month. No shit."

Hi! I am usually a lurker, but I have been following you for about a year or so (found from r/MM_Romance AO3 recs search) and my first read was Deeper into the Woods. -- Do you have any recommendations for "realistic" portrayals of sadists? (AO3 stories or MM romance but also open to non-fiction recs/other) -- I do not have any real-life experience with people who identify as sadists or the kink community in general, so I wonder how exaggerated the fiction is sometimes. Thank you for your time!

Hi anon!

I'm going to rec two of my own fics - Spoils of the Spoiled (especially tracing a young sadist who has to figure out where the lines are between reality and fiction in his own life), and Falling Falling Stars (which depicts an experienced genuine sadist who is quite frank/open about talking about it and is comfortable in himself about it).

You probably have a lot more experience with real life sadists than you know, since most of us are just regular people! (And quite a few of us are also masochists as well). Honestly it's possible to see people with sadistic tendencies in every walk of life. From massage therapists who enjoy working the knots out of their clients (including the 'good pain' it results in), to the professional manufacturers of boutique hot sauce, who like nothing more than watching someone suffer through what they created.

(And same with masochists - you need only look at the people who enjoy that hot sauce and the pain it causes them, lmao.)

You might also like the published m/m romance series by Lisa Henry and JA Rock known as the 'Boy series.' It starts with The Good Boy and the sequel is The Boy Who Belonged. It is, imho, a great and realistic depiction of an experienced sadist and a newbie masochist, as well as a trauma recovery story with an age gap, which realistically addresses the age gap, the sadism, lateral ways of being sadistic with someone who finds impact play triggery, and more. For me it's still one of the gold star versions of published m/m which shows the perspective of both characters, so we get to see what they're both thinking, and - imho - it's pretty realistic!

I'm also gonna rec one of my fanfics, The Beast that Chose Its Own Bridle, since a lot of the chapters are from the sadist's perspective, and while the setting is fantasy, the actual thought processes behind setting up scenes, the intention, riding the line between too much hurt and the right amount, what kind of pain is sexy and what isn't, etc. is - I feel - quite realistic. It's one of the things that fellow sadists have praised my work for (that the sadists feel like real sadists, and not just wish fulfillment sadists, who are otherwise apologetic for enjoying someone's pain), and while I still have a lot to learn re: writing in general, it's one of the reasons I write what I do!

A portal opens nearby, and an orange stick figure with fiery wings on his back, alongside a prosthetic arm and right leg, as well as a scarred left eye, tumbles through and falls face-first onto the ground, sliding to a stop in front of Imora.

"Owww..."

"Oh goodness-!"

[Imora was startled by the sudden appearance of the strange stick figure. She watches as it slides to a stop right in front of her, kneels down to its level, then holds her hand out with a soft smile on her face.]

"Are you okay? That looks like it hurt..."

Wait I have a question (I feel like I've been asking way too much lately I'm so sorry ;-;)

But uhh, since Cap and Edith are uh- canon in ur AU (if they still are), can I see some love between them perhaps?- if they r still canon in ur au of course

And you don't have to answer this anytime soon! I don't want to rush u, or u don't have to answer this at all if you'd like! :)

- - - { 🍮 } - - -

Y E S -

I was thinking of making a comic (OR animation to be exact) about them and maybe explaining Cap's heart-shaped necklace (?) LJSKSKSJSJSJ but ehh since this community wanna keep whining and is still mad at me for making this AU. Uhh not sure if I can make animations for it to avoid drama.

And sorry for not answering this sooner. I got harassed and didn't had a chance to reply <:p

On one hand, genderbent obianidala is very fun (even if obi-wan is still a guy). On the other hand, I don't think that Obi-Wan would let Anakin out of his sight; she looks at a guy and he starts having heart problems. When she goes out with Padme, Obi-Wan texts her every five minutes and is like "Are you dead. Are you okay. Do NOT have intercourse w/that man. Love, Obi"

how dare you be this funny

You told me yesterday I'm full of surprises. So here is another!

Good morning babe and have a great start into monday please. May you check your lunchbox at your lunch break? There is a little yummy something packed in today.

I love you and eat well!

You know baby, if I hadn't received any news from you on Monday, that would be a sad surprise. But by now, I kind of expect for you to cutely appear for me and prepare me a little something.

Thank you for the lunch box as always. It's delicious and lovely as always.
