#maybe it’s the fact I’m an older sibling tho

[kaorusan241]

Finishing Life Is Strange 2, loving it, and then realising that the fandom is non-existent because people preferred the other games that I’ve never played and don’t care about yet lol

[manicpixietransguy]

You know that feeling when you think that you agree with someone on most things but actually it’s only a few things and every other thing you just fold when they resist your opinion for a second because you’re afraid of offending them by liking something they don’t or disliking something they do… and you realize that you’ve been pushing down the discomfort that causes you in favor of their comfort because once again you’re convinced that their feelings should matter more to you (because you were raised by an emotionally immature mother and they remind you a little bit too much of her, and the religious trauma doesn’t help either). And you told yourself that you were going to start holding firm on these things because you’re tired of the resentment that you feel whenever this happens, but you also don’t know what would happen if you did hold firm because you haven’t really done it before and they could potentially overreact and you’re really tired of dealing with any of this at all anymore.

Anyway moral of the story I guess: if you’re close with somebody who’s basically a film bro, don’t mention the Barbie movie around them unless you’re ready to defend your excitement for it.

[sherbertquake56]

okay I’m dropping some of my fable arcane au thoughts before the new episodes drop tomorrow even tho most of it is based on season 1 anyway—

so some basic taggings for you that I based the AU around:

1. Icarus as Jinx.

powder vs jinx is just the sherbert vs icarus name thing. toxic father. unhealthy relationship with sibling. a lil crazy and maybe evil. thinks that they are at fault for the things around them. lil bombs? nah- little SPLASH potions. hearing and seeing mylo and claggor? it’s Haley- it’s literally Haley—

2. Fable as Silco.

okay fable’s design WAS partially inspired by silco— they literally look the same— they’re both a man with two priorities: take over and make his own nation & care for child.

you know the ending scene of season 1? where they’re sitting at the table? THAT. With Jinx assuming that he’s gonna give her up to topside and him getting the first chance to talk and saying “her name is JINX!” i could write an essay on that for icarus. they’re so toxic and it’s so perfect. also that scene at the start of s2 ep2? YEAH THAT—

3. Centross as Ekko

This one is controversial and up to debate but i will die on this hill— SO THE S1 BRIDGE FIGHT. I am so willing to put aside any possible prison duo gay-ness in this AU for that rivalry/fight. they were friends!!! they were so good!! and now they wanna KILL EACH OTHER!! it’s great.

It’s also specifically thinking of Ekko’s tree home as solstice— older Ekko very much has the vibe of Violet specifically-

4. Arisanna as Sevika

I DONT KNOW WHY BUT IT MAKES SENSE TO ME. It’s specifically vexed Ari during the coworkers era but idk it just feels right— I look at her relationship with Silco and Jinx and go ‘hmmm this could be something’

[I will also say there is an argument here for swapping Centross and Ari tho— big tree city as Ari rebuilding the records goes hard, and angsty fighty toxic with jinx centross is also good— it’s like 50/50 for me]

5. Isla as Vander

LET ISLA BE A BADASS IN THIS AU. SHE DESERVES IT— something something raising vi and powder alone, something something the backstory with silco— there’s something there and it hits really hard in scenes where vi sees vander and helps her get back up— also I look at jinx and vander and I go “mmmm this is in fact how icarus sees Isla”

6. Rae as Vi

This was obvious given the above but LISTEN— in this ALTERNATE UNIVERSE OF EVENTS I think it would be fun- do I think that vi perfectly fits canon rae? no. But in this world it would KICK ASS. rae deserves to beat some people up— got kicked out of the overworld (zaun) by fable (silco) and had to go to the end (piltover) to get away from him?? rae end prince aus are already here so why not end rae also punching people huh??? also. gay people.

———

Okay— here’s where I need some help, thoughts, and opinions from you all…

1. Caitlyn.

POLYAMORY IS HARD TO TAG AND I DONT KNOW WHO FITS BEST?? For me, season 1 Caitlyn fits best as Caspian, but season 2 Caitlyn is more for Fenris— so I’m very stuck. yes absolutely give thoughts on this please—

2. Viktor as Aax (but how does that work)

Viktor absolutely should be Aax— mr. Scientist / lab experiment / turned religious figure vessel for god is CORRECT. But honestly the rest of Piltover gang is really hard with Rae as Vi— Jayce/Viktor/Mel is yelling at me to be the polycule but aGH— ya know??? very stuck on this so I instead look at the coworkers and go “mm good yes—”

Random other tags I think also make sense:

- Ulysses as that Telchin looking mf Stev— mans took out one lil medical device as his fish self and I said YUP

- The hexcore big orb thing underground as Quixis— big white glitch orb room make things go wack. couldn’t be easier than that.

———

Anyways that’s all— I’ve been rotating this in my mind for like a week and have had way too many thoughts about it thank you for your time—

[reinbouxsworld]

Vil being Tamayo kind of implies that Neige is some sort of Muzan figure, hilarious as that is. Demon RSA. They get to be the baddies for once. (Does this make Chenya Douma then? 🤔)

BUT ALSO…

UPPER MOON LEONA!!!! I’m thinking of him and Falena having a sort of Kokushibo and Yoriichi situation. Strongest Demon Slayer Falena, who loved his little brother so much he could not bear to kill him.

LeoYuu. Leona taking a nap in some random secluded village during the day, and Yuu, unknowing peasant girl, accidentally steps on his clothes. The start of a beautiful relationship 🥹

Riddle feels like he would be Rui in the AU of an AU. It’s kind of fitting as well considering Riddle was the first overblot faced while Rui was the first Demon Moon faced. Heartslabyul Spider(?) Family?

Vil and Rook being Daki and Gyutaro. Vil who only eats beautiful people. Rook, who says he prefers to eat beautiful people but will eat just about anyone with no discrimination because “BEAUTE! 100 points!” Alternatively, Gyokko Rook.

Hantengu Idia… maybe?

Muzan Crowley going “Aren’t I so kind~” every time he turns someone into a demon.

Sorry for the long ask!

DON'T BE SORRY I LOVED IT FORL START TO FINISH OMG

OK OK, NEIGE IS NOT MUZAN. Buuuut... he IS a demon! AND YEP RSA BOYS ARE THE BADDIES FOR ONCE!!!! (I got so happy when I read this one I swear I felt like I wasn't insane by trying to imply this)

Tho Neige does look like rui (I wanted to get some of the spider design of him). But he's actually more on a Daki like role. He's inspired by jorogumo (spider demon on Japanese culture), which often takes the appearance of a beautiful woman. I'm still thinking how exactly his arc will work, so I can't say much besides Vil still hates him. 💅

Chenya is a demon whose resembles a cat (resembles cause he does not have ears that just his hair in here) AND he's very important to riddle's backstory — I can say that this is my favorite one till now tho.

Dramatic pause cause I'm about to gush over EVERYTHING NOW.

YES YES UPPER MOON LEONA IS LIKE MY SIDE HUSBAND AT THIS POINT AND YES I rrly like that idea????? Plus Farena would fit yorichi like a glove too AND GOOD I LOVE THE DOOMED SIBLINGS TROUPE 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Honestly I'm very into the fact that if they meet as Leona as demon yuu would be turned into one too, just to make sure the slayers don't hurt his human to get him???! (But I also I'm rlly into the "turn me into a demon" "no" "turn me into a demon" "no" turn me in-" "FOR GODS SAKE NO")

OMG, YES. Not only that, but riddle ministering the rules over spider!heartslabyul family would be so interesting. I'm going for Trey as dad, Cater as mom as Ace and Deuce as older brothers (tho I feel like these two would be way more destructive than necessary). But demon riddle would also be a insane adversary if you don't have the mommy issues card to throw at him.

I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT VIL AND ROOK AS GYUTARO AND DAKI IS ALREDY PERFECT AS IT IS.

Tho gyokko rook WOULD be amazing cause only rook could pull of gyokko weird ass and still make sense??? But Mostly he would make people into art into a way of making them beautiful forever?? (Much like sasori from naruto with his "art is eternal" thing)

HATENGU IDIA IS THE ULTIMATE ONE THO. Not only that, but to have five/six versions of Idia, and his stronger and younger one would still be Ortho WOULD MAKE IT EVEN MORE WILD. Bonus point if real Ortho was killed by him after being turned into a demon.

You got me with muzan!Crowley I'm definitely making this real in the au (it actually makes him even more sinister? I can handle muzan choking but I draw the line at Crowley ACTUALLY think he is kind when he's destroying lives (he's prettier doing it tho)

[windybluebelles]

I love Duke Thomas

I luv him :3

He is silly

Sorry the demons anyway

Duke is a fun character that people (fanfic writers, official writers, etc) never really seem to take advantage of. I’m not here to complain about writing tho I’m here to rant.

Duke is the perfect age where you can make him friends with the characters directly older than him (Tim’s gen/Young Justice) and the ones directly younger than him (Damian’s generation, eg Jon Kent, Shazamily maybe) and I think more people should write about him just being the middle of the youngest kids

Like, Jason and Cass are middlest of the oldest, Duke is middlest of the youngest.

Duke showing up to titans tower, charming young justice, insulting Tim to his face, stealing something, bringing up the Robin gang, and leaving. Once Tim and Duke have known eachother for a while, Tim complains about Duke the same amount he does Damian! Possibly worse because Duke never does anything actually malicious! He’s just Tim’s little brother!

Duke going into Damian’s room when his friends are over and embarrassing him. He’s the designated chaperone when the kids want to go out somewhere. Walking with Dami to and from school. I imagine they play minecraft together

So I want Damian to have one sibling relationship where he isn’t a baby, sue me! No one really brings up the fact that them two are the only of the kids who really live at home, they are sort of forced to put up with eachother. Damian also doesn’t really have a reason to hate Duke, I imagine he’s mostly got over his ‘heir to the bat’ nonsense by the time he gets fostered and, even if he hasn’t, Duke doesn’t really want Bruce as his dad! Duke is in no way competition

I want to see Damian insulting Duke, biting him, hitting him, awful awful shit and everyone is like

‘Oh no! Why is Dami evil again 😣’

But then Duke just yells back at him! 20 minutes later their seen on the couch sharing a pack of skittles! I want one normal sibling relationship in this family!

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES 2012 ..BUT THEY GET TO BE ACTUAL TEENAGERS (let them be happy please..) PT 2 !!

LEO LORE !!!

-Leo was placed as the role model by master splinter since day one, tho his father never really meant any kind of harm to Leo, this costed him his stability WAY TOO MUCH, Leo is NOT a born leader..tho he was (unintentionally) tricked into believing that he is one. Any time he would fail to lead or help his brothers he’d be too hard on himself, asking why couldn’t he just be the perfect leader he was supposed to be! The one he always wanted to be..and ended up finding comfort in Tv shows and cartoons, which began his love for Space Heroes ^_^!

As time went on, Leo realized that trying to be something he wasn’t was really just taking a toll on him..to which he decided to split the leader title between his siblings, Leo would be the front man, and whenever he had no plans,one of his brothers would take on the leader title and get all of them out of a situation together..Nowadays Leo is still learning to be a good leader by himself , tho taking his time and actually enjoy what being a leader is.

LIKES !! : cartoons, old animes or indie films, traditional Japanese culture, SPACE HEROES, Space!, his brothers ^_^!

DISLIKES : having too many pressure on him, loud noises, spicy food..

FUN FACTS BOUT LEO !!!

Leo likes to use traditional Japanese clothing, mostly cuz he thinks it’s really cool, plus Splinter wears it too..so..yeah

Daddy’s boy, he can do no wrong in splinter’s eyes

Sweet tooth! He loves candy in general..

WOULD’VE been emo..If splinter allowed him to, tho splinter never let him and he grew out of it really quickly..

Drags Raph to see old animes with him

NERD ..like..”I’m gonna into dump you about my favorite show cuz you’re awesome!” Kind of nerd

Has begged Donnie to make him some space heroes related stuff..(Donnie has NOT done that)

Mostly listens to indie music, would like Alex G

“GUYS CAN WE PLEASE STOP STARING AT EACH OTHER AND DO SOMETHING WITH THE BROKEN VASE IN FRONT OF US…PLEASE? GUYS!!??”

Would totally write poems

They suck, but he tries..

Was pretty selfish for some time..due to his older brother status, but he turned out to be a really sweet lil guy

Undiagnosed neurodivergence probably

“What? No I don’t have any hyperfixations..I just really REALLY like space!”

Refuses to cut down his hair cuz it makes him look like a “Real Samurai” or something…?

Tried picking up an instrument cuz he wanted to have an excuse to talk to Raph more

In his mind “If my brother plays an instrument..and I try to play an instrument too..maybe we will have something in common and he will talk to me!”

That failed

The main reason He and Raph’s relationship is so rocky is because of stuff that happened between the ages of 6-13 yrs old..I will elaborate later on..probably 

Listens to vocaloid..his favorite is either MIKU or Gakupo (idk if that’s his name ..)

Really talented with his katanas! Tho he has tried using other weapons before

Likes pineapple on pizza ..

“ I love my brothers!..I might’ve been a bit of an idiot when we were younger…but I’m trying my best to be the best older brother ever now!..PLEASE BELIEVE ME PLEASE PLEASE PLEAS-“ (He has improved a LOT..he is getting that best big bro title!)

The Crown's Desires

helluva boss au || icyago w/ fem!Vassago au

ABOUT THE UNIVERSE

This AU takes place approx. ten years before the canon events (which, of course, are not canon in this universe, tho it was worth mentioning for a point of reference)

Consequently, all of the characters are younger here than they are canonically (even tho we don’t know all of their ages exactly)

This AU is IcyAgo-centric, but I will occasionally show off, reference and sketch other characters.

This AU is based around two tropes: a. arranged marriage and b. from enemies to sexual partners to lovers

ABOUT THE MCs (and a tid bit about other characters too)

fem!Vassago’s name is Vassara and other than being a girl… she is basically the same lol.

Before you ask yes, she’s a girl solely because it’s necessary for the trope to happen, there had to be an heir and a reason for their marriage.

Andrealphus was married off first in his family since he’s older than his siblings.

Vassara is a bit older than Andre.

They were not at all pleased with the news and the fact that they were getting married, because, having known each other since childhood, they had always despised each other.

The day Vassara laid the egg, they made a deal that they’re, from now on, free to fuck, love or date whoever they want as long as they keep it in secret from other Goetias/royals and both take care of their son.

Both of them, however, absolutely sucked at parenting first. They were unintentionally neglectful (fortunately they are rich and have butlers, so that wasn’t that big of a deal), but still loving parents.

Tho pretending to love each other in front of Aurelion wasn’t and still is not enjoyable.

Both Andre and Vassara are bisexual.

I changed Andrealphus’ design to be… more regal? imo I’m pretty bad at character design but I wanted to change his looks a bit anyway

Aurelion (at the time of the events in the au) is approx. six years old!

Unlike her husband, Vassara is not serious about her status and prefers to be more... "closer to the people", so to speak.

Vassara and Stolas are straight up ✨besties✨, even tho other Goetias aren't at all accepting of their friendship due to... some events. (more on that later... in an other post definitely)

Aurelion calls Stolas his uncle and he's absolutely convinced that Stolas really is his uncle

Obviously, Andrealphus, as all the other Goetias, is absolutely shocked by that and feels personally attacked every single time he hears his son calling that pathetic travesty of a Goetia his uncle

And Vassara is absolutely thrilled with how miserable his reaction is.

And again, before you ask, yes, this is a reference to Stella's "in our bed?!" 'cause I find it to be VERY funny

Andre...probably has a humiliation kink...maybe...just a very slight one.

Phew that was a lot of text WHICH WAS NOT INTENTIONAL i really want this AU to be more about my drawings than my writing so i'll try to spill less tea and show more of the events in the future!!!! i have so many things to tell

[iheartgirlzn]

ANGIE IN THE RIORDANVERSE HEADCANNONS

🐡 notes: get to know me as a child of poseidon at camp half-blood! inspired by @sunnitheapollokid , @child-of-apollo & @pinkdiorluvr (ik i wasn’t tagged BUT THIS IDEA IS SOOO COOL!)

depending on when i arrive at camp, i don’t know when i’d be claimed. like if it’s before percy shows up maybe a month? but if it’s after him a week at most.

but i do know i’d be claimed before i become a teen, like 11 or 12 at oldest !!

i also don’t think i’d be a year rounder, but i’d 100% go during the holidays if i’m not busy

ANYWAYSS it’d probably happened when i was alone - maybe swimming or sunbathing and BOOM! there’s a trident above my head

i’m not sure if it would’ve been a surprise to some people, but i think some campers would be like ‘yeah makes sense.’

i the other options were ‘they’re a hermes kid’ or ‘that’s probably hypnos’ child.’ (ignore the fact those two gods couldn’t be more different)

until percy shows up it’d be just me.. so obvi i’m the head counsellor 🫡 the cabin would be SO clean with me running the place.

campfire sing alongs are defo my favourite part of the day (if i didn’t have anxiety i’d be a theatre kid just saying </3)

and i don’t play any instruments anymore, but if i could i’d totally play the guitar around the fire 🤸

either way i WILL sing any musical that comes to mind with no shame whatsoever (mamma mia.. hamilton.. epic.. encanto..)

i like to think that i’d be close with percy and tyson!

me and perce wld clash sometimes but we’re related so ig we’d HAVE to get along /j (coming from someone with 2 younger siblings 😣😣)

↑ SPEAKING OF MY OTHER FAMILY i’m also close with all my other cousins and nieces?? nephews??

i’m closest with the og trio (grover, annabeth, and percy), children of apollo, aphrodite and hephaestus!!

(↑ me and leo would be bffs.)

and maybe the hypnos cabin cuz i love sleeping and i will be visiting them often 👀

BUT I LOVE ALL THE DEMIGODS ANYWAYS AND WLD PROTECT THE YOUNGER ONES W MY LIFE!! i love kids (don’t take that weirdly.)

but also speaking of sleeping i cannot fall asleep without a bit of light. like EVEN NOW I CANNOT THE PITCH DARK SCARES ME SO BADD

my relationship with my mum would be fine, she’d just miss me a lot and be overprotective !

my powers are breathing underwater and controlling it and whatever else percy has.. and maybe a tail — JUST LET ME LIVE MY MERMAID DREAM

my weapon of choice would be two celestial bronze daggers or like a giant golden trident /hj

i’d defo train with piper or annabeth bc of this

i couldn’t care less if that meant getting beaten up by two gorgeous women — #bipanic 🤭

my favourite chb activities would be the sword fighting lessons/archery/or capture the flag!! (i love archery irl too sooo)

i LOVE HUGS!! so i’m always hanging off of someone if they don’t mind :P

I ALSO LOVE SWIMMING!!!! lowkey duh tho cuz my dad’s the god of the sea.. BUT I LOVE SWIMMING

wears glasses. i hate wearing glasses but i hate contact lenses even more.

closest friends with rachel dare, annabeth chase, leo valdez (ik i said this but we a chaotic duo frfr), the stolls, piper mclean, etc!

speaking of me and leo being a chaotic duo WE WOULD TOTALLY HANG OUT LOADSS

and if i’m not with him then i’m by the lake or in the strawberry field eating them all 🗣️

obsessed with the art ‘n crafts cabin — will be in there painting or doodling away OR with rachel in her cave and drawing while she does oracle stuff

anyways i like to think of myself as a cool older sibling to the younger campers bc i’d let them do whatever they want (within reason) but also wld protect them w my life !!

#oldersistercore

[quinn-pop]

yet another oc that only exists because i wanted to write something very specific

(middle is a little older, hence her scar healing. i like to think she gets a glass eye at some point)

anyway this is mira! (they/she) since that wip is almost 20k words and counting i won’t give away too much but long story short she’s the result of meta going “one last time, i promise” and adopting yet another kid

also galaxia kinda indirectly picked the name :)

i’ve mentioned before that i headcanon that pretty much all astrals are autistic and this is just kinda an extension of that. whereas meta tends to suppress his emotions and conform to others, mira…doesn’t. she gets uncomfortable and upset and lashes out at people easily, and working through their emotions is no small task.

the main reason i chose to write them that way was for the sake of narrative but i’ve grown attached to it because there’s a lot of ideas there i’d like to explore. stuff about navigating emotions and relationships when existing is so suffocatingly uncomfortable. it’s not something i could center around Kirby himself, but i think it makes sense with a post character development meta knight.

they are very loved (omg oldee cameo???)

kirby was definitely very excited to have younger siblings after being used to being the youngest in the room for so long!! (with the like. one and only exception being gooey.) he’s super affectionate with both of them and wants to have a close relationship one day, but for now mira is pretty unappreciative of that fact lol. they don’t like being pestered for hugs

everyone else is okay tho

(i know that’s hard to read. oops. “obvious bite marks”. siblings being siblings.)

mira also has a very love/hate relationship with the egg kid, being so close in age they kinda Have to get along but in typical sibling nature they also fight a lot. sure it’s probably rough for a while but i think in the end they’d be good buddies. maybe not as close as Kirby and Bandee but still.

anyway i have a lot of thoughts and am very busy but. i’m really enjoying writing about all this lately it’s been fun ^^

[thegamingcatmom]

heyyy just finished your latest chapter!! I only joined this blog recently and was wondering if you could maybe explain mc’s relationship specifically with Carmen and Eleazar? As well as their relationship with the sisters themselves? I’ve seen a post regarding mc’s relationship with Carmen and how she’s very maternal with mc but I was thinking maybe you could clear some things up for me and go deeper into detail with how Carmen and el will be involved with mc during their time with the denali coven… I don’t expect any lengthy explanations to these questions since I know you’ll probably want to keep some of these things to yourself until you release the next chapter but I am just really engrossed into this story and I’m enjoying it so much I just want to know everything lol

To start off I was wondering whether or not Carmen and Eleazar are vegetarian or not, just because from what I’ve read it seems that the Denali sisters aren’t at this point in the story. In canon it’s said that Carmen and el join the sisters because of their shared diet and although we haven’t been introduced to these characters I’m going to assume that they are still vegetarians, right? Unless you have other plans for these characters and their dietary preferences which I’m totally down for and excited to see as the story progresses! But I was thinking that if they were vegetarian then how do they feel with the sisters abducting mc and essentially holding them against their will? Are they friendly to them? Do they try to convince Tanya to let mc go? Obviously, these questions may be questions you don’t want to answer right now, but I am curious as to how their first interaction with mc is going to be. With Eleazar having been with the Volturi for a couple centuries I assume he knows that it’s not safe to be in the company of a human while having already made it obvious that you aren’t human yourself since vampires aren’t allowed to draw attention to themselves, right? And I’m pretty positive the sisters know this as well, so would he bring this up as a point to try and get them to let mc go since they could draw the attention of the Volturi? Or would this be used as leverage against him and Carmen so that the sisters could keep mc with them?? Because if they don’t keep mc then they are basically putting the coven in danger. As I’m reading your story it is obvious to me that the sisters are intrigued by mc, or at least Kate and Tanya are idk about Irina tho she just seems pretty pissed that she didn’t get to eat her dinner lmao. But still it doesn’t seem that they are willing to let mc go and if they did let them go then they would risk their secret getting leaked so they clearly can’t do that. So I’m guessing Carmen and Eleazar wouldn’t really have any other choice but to keep mc with them?? But would they at least try to get the sisters to let them go especially if mc pleads for them to let them leave and promises that they won’t say anything about them?

Does Carmen and el have any influence over the decisions the sisters make while mc is in their care? They may be physically older than Tanya, Kate and Irina but are I’m guessing they aren’t parental figures to the three sisters and are more like adoptive siblings to them. Either way they are still the sisters’ coven mates and should be allowed to voice their own opinions on the matter. With this being said, I was wondering if Irina would share their views on the fact that a human doesn’t belong with a coven of vampires, especially when it could risk their safety. Like would she try and get Tanya and Kate to let mc go, or would she insist that they are better off killing them like they should’ve done the first time they met mc? Would Carmen and el stand for it? Would they allow the sisters or just Irina to suggest such a thing? Or would they feel like they just had no other options??

so far in this story it is made clear that mc is already going through heavy trauma during the first half of her time with the sisters. This leaves me to wonder how Carmen and Eleazar’s relationship with mc will pan out as we head into the next couple of chapters. Like are they going to help mc try to find stability in the current situation that they’re in? Are they going try and be friendly and welcoming and attempt to reassure mc that they are safe despite the circumstances mc finds themself in? Or would they be as overbearing as I know the sisters probably will be, especially Tanya and Kate.

Will Carmen and eleazar be just as hostile towards mc and treat them like a hostage at least in the beginning?

I apologize if I didn’t make sense with some of my questions 😂 I just wrote down whatever came to my head in the moment. Anyways, thank you for taking the time to read this, I’m looking forward to the next chapter!

Okay, okay, where to START??

Lemme just go with: I love you. 🫶🫶🫶

Like, honestly-

I think an ask such as yours is every writer´s wet dream, LMAO.

Btw: I have made the grave "mistake" of reading your ask JUST before going to bed. Needless to say, sleep didn´t come for quite a while. 💀

In my defense though: I did NOT expect to be met with such...enthusiasm. :3

Who tf cares about sleep anyway-

.

.

.

AIGHT so, there is something you gotta understand when it comes to me and writing: I don´t plan my chapters. I most cases, it goes like this:

have one specific scene in mind

picture it down to the very last detail

remember I still gotta write the other stuff that happens before and after

write the other stuff that happens before and after with that specific scene in mind

Remember the purse throwing in chapter 2? That was the scene that set off everything else. 🤭

With that in mind, I can´t really tell you where we´re gonna end up down the line. Ofc I got my HCs and general ideas of their dynamic with each other, but I´ll mostly just go with what feels right for the situation at hand. So, it´s as much an adventure for me as it is for you, lol. That's what I enjoy about writing – getting lost in your own world where the only limitation is your imagination. ^^

Now, let´s get to the good stuff:

Momma Carmen

I do view Carmen as very maternal and nurturing, as you correctly stated. Not just with MC. She´s like that with everyone she holds dear. She´s a very touchy-feely person in general. I mean, that´s basically canon, right? The way she welcomed Bella to the family was just precious. 😭🫶

Veggie vs Meat Lover

As stated in my story´s summary, the Denalis aren´t on their special "diet" because they simply never had a reason to change their lifestyle. In this universe, they lack the proper...motivation, you could say. *wink wink*

I looked up the canon storyline just now actually. So, our hispanic duo joined the sisters because they were in awe of their diet. They´ve longed for a more "compassionate" lifestyle for quite a while, and the sisters offered them exactly that.

So, what does that tell us about their non-veggie personas? They've always been compassionate. I mean, the fact they travelled the world to find a "cure" is pretty telling to me.

So, to (kinda) answer your question: Regardless of their diet, El & Carmen are pretty much the haven of peace I'd say. They're a lot more "tame" than the rowdy sisters, and you'll never have to fear for some hidden agenda with them. They're as honest as it gets.

(However, don´t be mistaken: There´s calm and then there´s eerily calm...)

With that said, I do view E & C as "The Parents", actually. As in: They´re the ones The Sisters go to in times of crisis or when they need advice for any kind of situation. Carmen is described as very maternal and nurturing in canon, and Eleazar is (imo) the passive Dad who lets his wife handle most things because he's just entirely complicated and awkward about pretty much everything that involves human interaction, lmao. But when it comes to giving advice or go into lengthy discussions about a topic? That's where he shines. He's, for a lack of a better word, a nerd. And I think that's absolutely precious. :3

So, to sum it up:

Carmen = The Heart

Eleazar = The Brain

It's the mix that makes it perfect. ❤️

But there's one thing that rings 100% true for both of them:

They´ll always love their "kids", no matter how deranged they get. 😏

Keep the Stray?

I think Tanya has made her intentions quite clear, lol.

Kate is a bit more unpredictable because screwing around is just in her nature, so you never quite know what her next move is gonna be. MC defo entertains her, no doubt about that. But will that be enough? (We might just see a bit more of that in chapter 3. 🤓)

Now, Irina? I mean...MC still owes her a dinner, so. 🤷‍♀️

As for El & Carmen? They'll mostly just accept whatever cards The Three Stooges have dealt them, lmao. But that's because that's how things have always been, yknow? Similar to Tanya bossing her sisters around, lol.

It's just that there's this kind of Hive Mentality, yknow? The Denalis have this system in place that has (for the most part) maintained peace and order for centuries now. None of them see any reason to change or question a running system.

...As long as it is running, that is. 😏

(Someone will for sure.)

So yknow, chances are high it´s probs gonna go down like-

Kate: *carries a kicking and screaming MC into their house*

Kate: "Guuuuys, look what we fouuuund! Can we keep her? Pleeeease!"

MC: *still kicking and screaming before she notices the two other ppl in the room*

MC: *throws them a look that clearly says "HELP ME" *

C & E: *share a look, but remain entirely unfazed otherwise*

MC: *goes completely rigid as she comes to the realization that there´s not a single soul (beside herself) in this house that´s even remotely sane*

Carmen: "Oh! Where are our manners?!"

Carmen: *steps forward and holds out a hand to MC who is still hanging in there (literally)*

Carmen: "Hello, dear. I´m Carmen."

Carmen: *waits patiently for a handshake*

MC, still hanging in there: 👁️👄👁️

Carmen: 🫲😊

Eleazar: *watches proceedings in that calm and collected way of his, entirely content with letting his wife do her things*

Carmen: 🫲😊

Kate: "So...can we?"

MC: *internal screaming*

The Volturi

Lemme answer your question with another question: Does MC know what creatures she's dealing with? 🤓

In regards to the Volturi: What the eye does not see, the heart does not grieve over. 🤷‍♀️

Oh and also: Even if MC was to tell someone about her "adventures"...does any of it sound believable to you? 🤔

Who is the top dog?

(I think we all know Kate's thoughts on that, lol.)

I've kinda answered this already, hehe. El & Carmen (or anyone else of the family) COULD oppose the decisions made by their leader, whether or not they'd be successful is another thing. But ofc they have the right to voice their opinions and doubts. It's just that there hasn't really been a need for it yet, yknow? Mob Hive Mentality, like I said. 🤭

So, basically, El & Carmen changed some of their views from when they first joined the sisters. They got more...nonchalant? Kinda?

Like, remember how Vladimir and Stefan (BD Part 2) were like "yo, we been squatting for so long, we almost turned to dust"? That's kinda what this is.

They've all been dusty for quite a while at this point. 💨

Side note:

I remember reading that it's easier for veggie vampires to form actual family units. I suppose that's because their insincts are dampered due to the animal blood. It makes them more...compliant.

Like, I HC that vampires are lone wolves for the most part actually. They all share one food source, so there's gotta be some sort of rivalry, right? At least in most cases.

Same with fights for territory btw, which is actually canon. (Jasper mentioned it in Eclipse once.)

Soooo with that said: There's a reason most of my posts are tagged with either "unhinged" or "feral", lol.

Irina

I find it very interesting that your focus is more on Irina when it comes to the family voicing concerns about keeping a human with them.

Now, offing MC? That´s more like it. It´s how things should have been to begin with. In fact, Irina might just try and get the job done herself, who knows? She´s defo still up for that dinner she´s been robbed off...

As it currently stands, Irina is the only one who thinks and acts in a rational manner. She was entirely right in stating her sisters have lost it, lol. MC should have been a goner, and you correctly stated it might just put the whole coven in danger down the line if the wrong people (well, vamps) were to get wind of it.

Well, that's probs gonna be her main concern, at least. So, letting MC go is defo out of the question for her.

So, expect a very frustrated and very fed-up Irina in the foreseeable future. She just cannot grasp, for the life of her, why everyone is so besotted with that...pest.

Future Outlook

Yknow, you´ve basically answered your own questions there, lmao.

So yes, trauma will defo be a big topic in this story. I´ve actually considered renaming the story because of it. We´ll see. 🤷‍♀️

It´s kinda bittersweet when you leave out all the messed up things that´ve happened and WILL happen down the line probs. Like, it all comes down to this Mob Hive Mentality. They´re basically gonna bulldoze over everything that´s happened so far, as they always do, focusing only on the task at hand:

Indoctrinating MC into their world.

There´s gonna be lots of setbacks and complications down the line, though *points to aforementioned trauma*. Like, they´re trying, yknow? But their ways tend to be...questionable, to put it mildly. 😅

The Denalis @ MC

Famous Last Words

Keep in mind that I.do.not.plan. This outlook is pretty much the direction I want to take this story. How and when we´ll get there is anyone´s guess. But we´ll get there, at some point.

...It IS a slow burn though, so this point could be 50 chapters in, who knows? 🙃

Thank you so much for your lengthy ask! I had a huge smile on my face the entire time I was reading it. Seeing someone so invested in your story is the biggest compliment a writer could get, really. 🙏❤️

Btw-

"I just wrote down whatever came to my head in the moment."

That´s basically my writing style, LMAO.

Again, tysm. Hope you´re having a great day! 🫶

Cya at Chapter 3! 💋💋💋

Talking to the Moon

Rating: 13+

Word count: Just under 3.5k

Characters: Judith Grimes, Negan Smith (NOT A SHIP!!!!!!); mentions of Carl, Rick, Michonne, Carol, Enid, and R.J.

Setting: Alexandria, post 6 year jump

Content Warnings: sibling grief, talks of death, a little bit of suicidal ideation in here too I think, vulgarity, light talk of typical TWD violence, just lots of sad. Sorry. Fluffy ending tho!

Summary: Judith is getting older, and it’s not fair that Carl isn’t.

Author’s Note: Okaaayy so I really did not want the first piece I published on here to be an angsty vent but life kinda decided to bodyslam me (as usual) so anyways have this lol. I spent all day yesterday writing this in between crying fits and I’m only finishing it now.. oopsie whoopsies. A little context I guess, my older brother was shot and killed 5 years ago, and in 5 years I will be older than he got to be. That’s heavily implemented in here, as well as just the majority of Judith’s dialogue being my own thoughts/feelings. Sometimes it just hits you again, man. My therapist likes me to write it out 🤷🏻 I’m workin on other stuff that isn’t like this so pls bear w me y’all 😭🙏🏽

Beta’d by @murdadixon as alwayysss

Midnight marked her 10th birthday. 

She liked to keep track of time in intervals of five. R.J. was currently an interval of 5. He died at an interval of five. She was reaching an interval of 5 herself, right now. In a demi-decade, she would encounter the age he’d never passed; and in a decade, she would be 5 years older than he’d ever be. Five felt significant, and she did not—she simply felt like her brother’s stand-in. 

Judith sat on the edge of the wooden boardwalk with her legs drawn up to her chest and both arms wrapped around her knees, chin rested atop them, and stared blankly at the water source before her. Tried to mimic its stillness. But she disrupted it, instead, because the tears swimming in her brown eyes splattered down and sent ripples coursing across the surface, growing larger the further they fanned out and expanded. 

That was, similarly, how missing Carl felt. At the start, it was a heavy impact, it obliterated the calmness, and as the years blazed past, it got further away and yet simultaneously… bigger. How could something shrink and grow? How could she grow, every day; and yet consistently feel as if she were being pushed back, made smaller? Small enough to be back in his arms again, like before, like that final night she knew him. 

She would appreciate his last words this time. She would wrangle her brain up into her juvenile hands and pin it down to carve them over the top of her damn hippocampus to keep them there; even if it did mean her blood got everywhere, even if it meant she lost all the rest of her cognitive function. Truthfully, she did not want to function this way. Being medically brain dead would be a graciousness. Or maybe just being bit.

Feeling the fever Carl did would unite them in a way. 

The panels beside her creaked recognizably, a familiar gait and stride, and Judith’s fingers twitched to move instinctively for a gun she knew she wouldn’t brandish. The scuffed tips of two large black boots entered her peripheral vision but she did not turn her gaze. 

“Hey there, Miss Grimes.” 

Negan sat in a loose mirror of Judith’s position—he struggled with holding his legs in exactly the same manner and had to improvise considerably. He got himself comfortable with his legs toward his chest but with a short gap between his thighs, toes pointing outward instead of inward as Judith’s were, and both forearms crossed above his knees to lie his head upon. 

“Don’t really like water, kid, but I’m diving in there after ya if you jump, so please don’t, alright? For me?” 

The preteen wiped her right cheek against her bicep and tilted her head to rest the left cheek against the adjacent knee and look at her guest. Her eyes weren’t really seeing him, but she was trying to acknowledge the fact that he’d joined her. “How’d you get out?” 

He ignored that she ignored his question and instead plastered on the usual grin, even if the edges were heavy and worn down, and lifted a finger to his smile. 

Shhhh, it’s a secret. It went without saying. 

“I should shoot you. I brought my gun,” she pestered, poking a bear with a stick. Only, this bear was a puppy. And the humor behind the words didn’t reach her tone. 

He decided not to address her monotony.

“Mmhmm. Right.” 

“I would.” 

“I know,” he grinned again, more genuinely, and his side administered a dull throb almost out of nostalgia. She had, in fact, shot him. He wouldn’t challenge that.

There were only a few moments that went without speech. Judith found herself gazing ahead again, tapping her right cowgirl boot without tempo because it was simply to alleviate the odd, incessant gnawing in her gut that screamed to bounce her leg, or else. 

“Why don’t I get to have a word?” she blurted out, albeit quietly, almost unaware that Negan could not read her mind and was clueless to what she really meant. The man hummed questioningly as if to say ‘continue,’ and Judith finished verbalizing the thought. “I mean… mom’s a widow, and you’re a widower. Enid is an orphan. Aunt Carol is a v- vi..lo..mah, she lost her daughter Sophia.” The young girl struggled on the pronunciation momentarily before returning to the point. “But what am I? Just… a kid who lost a brother? Don’t I deserve a word? Doesn’t Carl? I think he deserves more than one. I would give him them all.” 

In truth, Negan would not have heard the second half of her statement had they not been knee-to-knee. Even from only having a view of the profile of her face, he could tell that she was fighting back the need to cry. The intensity with which she swallowed, the twitch of the corners of her frown, her small nostrils flaring. She was probably also avoiding allowing her voice to crack. 

Kids don’t ever deserve to feel this way. Adults can hardly even cope with loss. He’d seen it sometimes before, the occasional teen with swollen eyes and dark circles wordlessly offering him a slip with a small, rectangular obituary card stapled to the top left corner to excuse a few days of absence after the passing of a parent, guardian, or otherwise crucial family member. And similar to now, he truly tried his best… when it came to situations like that. It was hard—shit, it still is hard, but after eventually grasping that what most of them wanted was to just be heard (and not to be told that a kick-ass exercise routine could distract a weak mind, or about how being a pussy didn’t get you pussy), he’d take his attendance and approach again with a juniors mitt and baseball to throw at the wall and catch while they cried, screamed, shook, even dissociated some of them. He’d never been a great man, or honestly even a kind teacher; Savior Negan essentially just carried on acting as he had before Lucille’s confrontation, diagnosis, and passing; but the kids who saw through him loved him. When the rest loathed to hear ‘Mr. Smith,’ though no one was to blame for that but himself. To the damaged kids, the whole façade of coolness he tried to upkeep around his classes was utter horseshit because they found him badass when he let them bitch about things without taking to the nearest phone as a mandatory reporter. 

Judith was, arguably, the most mature ten year old with significant trauma that he’d ever sat with. Children that young hadn’t been his area of work, really, but there were a handful of times one of his high school students had to drag along a little sibling because they’d emancipated after the death of the only responsible parent, were granted custody of the kid, and the younger had a day off. Other stories, heavily similar or drastically different, with the same outcome. Judith was more put together than half of the seniors that had dished their shit out on him. In a strictly militant world and with no empire turning to him for guidance, there was no excuse to be assertive around her age bracket. He would tell her she was strong, that she was an Amazon warrior who could brave anything and then have to explain Wonder Woman comics, but the probability was massive that she could only grasp some variation of control over herself in these heavy moments because life now held a sickening promise that anything could be marred with a streak of blood. That you have to always be ready to mourn. 

So fucked up. 

His prior internal assessment to remain silent and give her more time to process her feelings into words proved correct when Judith turned her head back in his direction again with more to express to him. 

“Dad isn’t here anymore to tell me what Carl was like at my age. Or tell me stories about before everything got bad. And mom wasn’t around for all that stuff. But even if she was, I- I hate always hearing about him from other people. About how they won’t ever get to see him grow up. Why does everyone else get to remember my brother? Why doesn’t anybody care that I gotta know he’s not watching me grow up anymore? I want to remember Carl on my own, but I was too little!” Her delicate voice shattered beneath the weight of her last sentence, and the way her eyebrows were flying into all different angles on her face betrayed that her developing mind didn’t know what to do with the guilt that ignited furiously behind her ribs for seemingly such a selfish notion. It was a vicious fact that Judith almost never understood what she was feeling, not acutely. 

But, she trusted Negan. He’d told her things that no one else had cared to let her know. About Abraham. About Glenn. About Sasha, Denise, uncle Daryl. Everyone she loved had been damaged by him in some way, but… they’d all together affected him, too. 

Maybe he changed. Or maybe he’d been keeping this Negan safe. Whatever the case, here he was, out of his cell, not even allowing his knee to bump her own. 

This man had killed people? He was the kindest one here to her. Especially when it came to stuff like this. Other Alexandrians always dismissed her; she didn’t have any “adult” problems worth sparing their time for. How could the big bad wolf be so tame? 

Judith wiped both of her eyes and straightened her left leg out halfway. “If… if Carl hadn’t got bit, what do you think things would be like now?”

And that question certainly beckoned an answer. He had been allowing her to talk as much as she felt necessary tonight, content to simply sit quietly and be an ear for the little girl as she often was for him. His skull would have been split open on one of those prison walls years ago had it not been for his little window and Judith’s spark of rebellious humanity. 

Negan responded honestly, as was always the case with her. “I woulda killed every last one of these dickwipes, and brought you and Carl back to the Sanctuary with me. I don’t kill kids. But I don’t think your brother would have been too crazy about that. Nah, with those titanium balls of his, he would have taken me down, torn all of my people apart limb from fuckin’ limb. Yeah…,” he peered down at Judith, who was just watching him with her elbow on her extended knee and her cheek rested on her palm. No signs of distress. He continued on. “Yeah, Prick thought he was a badass, but Carl? Well, he was the real badass. Anybody could’a killed me, my bet was on him. Catch me off guard, I wouldn’t have fought back. I think he would have stocked one of my big ass trucks with everything he needed and taken off with you knowing he won. But he also would have lost everything.” 

Now, Judith’s energy had shifted back into that murky cloud it had resembled before. Not entirely, but to a noticeable degree. Negan cursed under his breath. 

“Did I scare you talking abou-” 

“You think Carl would have raised me all on his own? You really think he would have done that?”

“Oh, I know it,” Negan nodded adamantly, without aggressive urgency, and chipped a piece of plastic from the aglet of his shoelace to chuck into the water. “Carl loved you more than anyone else, I think.” 

A brittle, cracked sob drew his attention immediately to the little girl beside him, left hand reaching out to comfort on instinct and then hovering uselessly between them. Judith gave her permission with action instead of words; turning her legs off to the side to be able to roll onto her right hip and notch herself against Negan’s side. She rested her head against his knee and old tears from her cheek seeped through the thin material of his jumper. The previously awkward arm dropped around her own and he settled for hanging his hand at an outward angle away from her body. He’d comfort the kid but any one of the adults here would send Michonne into a goddamned stroke by reporting that he’d made an attempt against her daughter's life by, say, scratching the back of her head. Some asinine bullshit. He wouldn’t risk it, and not because of himself. No, he’s a big boy and can handle his own conflicts. But Judith would get in so much unnecessary trouble. 

After taking a minute to gather herself, Judith whispered, “I think I would have liked that better.” 

“…What, Carl taking care of ya?” He queried. “Y’know that means you wouldn’t have your mom, or dad, or-”

“Mommies and daddies die before their kids do, or they’re supposed to. Siblings are- they’re supposed to be there the whole time you grow up, and after. You’re supposed to live your life together. And they’re not supposed to die before you mom and dad do.” 

“Kid-”

“I want Carl. I’d give up anyone here to get him back.” 

It proved remarkably difficult given how much taller he was than her, but Negan managed to make do. He tilted his neck to a sideways angle and rested his head on top of hers whilst fishing through his right pocket. 

Judith peeked up at him. “What’re you doing? Are you gonna stab me for making you sad? I’ve still got my-”

“No. Don’t be nosey,” he goaded and even ventured so far as to stick his tongue out and wrinkle his nose. Her head dropped back down to his leg just as quickly as it rose, and Negan’s fingers closed around the surprise. 

“Sounds like a candy wrapper…,” she mumbled, still too lost in her own head and the darkness residing. 

Two bright blue pouches withdrew from his pocket, and his brown eyes traveled skyward. “Moon’s right above our heads now. Means it’s midnight. I got ya a gift.” 

A second, smaller pair of brown irises gazed upon the same sky, and her bottom lip began to give way into trembles again so Negan damn near shoved the quite literally sweet present directly in front of her face. 

Judith blinked, eyes focusing on the text in front of them that stood out violently against the package design. “What’s ‘Razzles?’” A small hand accepted the curious, but still exciting new treat, and read the yellow script surrounding the name at the top and bottom. “‘First it’s candy, then it’s gum’? What’s gum?” 

Negan had already ripped his open. “You’re about to give me one fat ass kiss, Miss Grimes,” he mused delicately, tossing three colorful disks into his mouth.

His much younger counterpart followed suit, unsure of how to react while the candy crunched before a scintillating smile broke out across her face and two more pieces joined the first. “Where’d you get these?”

“…Okay, don’t laugh,” he deadpanned, and couldn’t help but smirk when Judith narrowed her eyes at him and raised an accusatory eyebrow, still blissfully chewing away. “I’ve gotta secret admirer.” He drew his shoulders up into a loose shrug, threw his hands out in a ‘surprise!’ gesture and dropped his mouth open to an overly enthused smile as the preteen choked on gum. 

“WHAT?!? What do you mean?! Tell me, tell me!” 

He wouldn’t comment on how much tension finally dissipated from his body and mind at the eager enthusiasm on Judith’s face. This had all been so… glum. “Don’t know, but they slip me goodies through the bars on the window. I asked Father Freaky for some paper to draw, keep my mind busy y’know, and left a note up there requesting a special birthday gift for my best friend. They got dropped in this morning.” 

“So, someone here in Alexandria?” she asked, munching her way through her bag of sweets. There was a twinkle in her eyes, finally, so he’d entertain it. 

He shrugged idly. “I’d assume so. I’ve got my fingers crossed there’s some freaky deaky coming my way!!” 

“Oh, ew. There it is, you ruined this whole thing.” Judith pushed on the side of his knee with both hands to amass enough force to actually shove his leg over. 

“Damn. This whole thing, huh?” 

“Mmhmm,” she hummed, her mouth now so full of chewed up gray gum that speaking proved difficult. 

Negan chomped down on a considerable number of candies all at once and reached for Judith’s own pack of Razzles. “Alright, I’ll just take this then, since I fucked up your birthday and all.” A deep, rumbling laugh burst forth from up out of his chest when the ten year old shouted ‘NO!!!’ and a huge wad of gum rolled out of her mouth to plink into the water and bob along to float elsewhere. The pout her bottom lip garnished was impressive and Negan glanced around to the houses in the distance behind them, all of the windows being dark with the quiet insinuation of sleep, to ensure the absence of scrutinizing eyes before taking one of Judith’s hands into his own to unload half the contents of his own candy until her palm was overflowing and a few stray pieces thumped down against the wood. Negan administered the 5 second rule with a quickness and claimed them for himself. 

“Thanks,” she chimed faintly, and set about organizing the surplus of thin, cylindrical candies into separate groups of yellow, purple, orange, pink, and blue. 

Negan tucked his hand back to his side and pointedly did not give any attention to the prominent droop Judith’s shoulders adopted afterward. He wondered fleetingly if anyone in town ever just… gave the kid a hug. “Ah, don’t worry about it. Really. It’s not like I went out and found these myself.” He pointed one of his own bits of candy at her and added, “Well, you can always just find my paramour and thank them yourself.”                

She tilted her head back against his arm to smile up at him. “You just want me to get you deets. You have a crush on this person already, uncle Negan?” 

“I’ll love anybody who gives me attention at this point,” he shrugged again, tone steady despite the admission. “Aren’t I hopelessly in love with you, Miss Grimes?” 

Her braid swung and the sheriff’s hat far too oversized for her head shifted slightly out of place when she nodded. She tucked the intertwined strands of hair behind her ear after they fell into her face and tickled her nose. “I never hear mom say that she loves me.” 

“Ah, she does.” He tapped a finger against his temple once he knew Judith was looking at him and would see it. “She’s got a lot going on up here. But I bet if you went up to Mich and told her first, she’d say it back.” 

The young girl nodded again, though this motion was a simple, stiff jerk and only once. Drastically unlike the one he’d earned for himself just moments prior. Judith didn’t believe that Michonne really loved her, but she could easily surmise that he did. “Love you, too,” she murmured and a hefty sigh followed closely behind. Judith tapped the toes of her boots against the boardwalk and followed Negan’s offered instruction to bravely attempt blowing her first bubble. It snapped into a sticky disaster on her lips. The pair fell into a comfortable, innocent, expectationless silence. Negan eventually polished off the last of his candy and crumpled the wrapper up to tuck away into the pocket he retrieved it from, along with Judith’s once she’d finished her own. She was, reasonably, exhausted, and it didn’t take long for him to realize that Judith had drifted off leaning against him. 

Next thing he knew, the clouds were graying and little hands were nudging his arm, accompanied by a sleep-slurred voice telling him to wake up. His legs were numb from having remained in the same seated position for what had to be at least a couple hours, but Negan still managed to get himself up into his feet and follow her along as she led the way to his cell. A sheepish smile and tired shrug was all he could muster when her eyes lingered on the lock and bobby-pin discarded haphazardly in the middle of the concrete. He took his place on his cot and watched the child close the bars behind him and slide the lock back into place. 

Judith turned from him to walk away, but threw a drowsy smile over her shoulder and waved. And pointless as it was, he spoke after she’d left and her shadow had already passed by his solitary window.

“Happy birthday, kid.” 

I think I get attached to characters like Negan who are dangerous and have soft hearts because that’s exactly what my brother was like.

I miss my Carl ❤️‍🩹

[thesaddestpotato2evaliv]

Why are parents like this?

I’ve noticed every time my dad comes back he only puts notice towards my little brother, the youngest sibling of all us five. They go out a lot with my mom, everywhere and anywhere, they would use the excuse “So he could explore more places while being young” am I not young? My other two older step brothers are favored by my auntie, I’m jealous of them too. It’s really not just me they’re leaving out, my brother too, maybe because he doesn’t really go out that much but hey we’re still your children too so what makes us any different to take out? The only time we went out as a family is only on a nearby and boring mall and they didn’t even bother to buy us stuff or supplies for school. Every year when my dad comes back he would usually let us buy anything on this shopping app as a reconciliation for not being home on Christmas and our birthdays, matter of fact I don’t remember him being on my birthdays anymore, if not the shopping app he’d just give us 500 (I get more from my grandma on my birthday)

Not to mention most of my clothes even my shoes are either hand me downs or thrifted, while my younger brother gets all the good stuff. I remember crying so hard alone when I was a kid because I told my mom if she could buy me a pair pajamas and she said she didn’t have the money but her parcel for my younger brothers clothes arrived. It’s been years since the gave me pants that aren’t thrifted or hand me downs. I also only use one shoe whenever I go out and it’s also thrifted, my other shoes are broken and sometimes I have to glue the soles just to use them for one day.

Sure I’m jealous but I’m not blaming my younger brother for it, I just don’t get why they can’t treat own kids fairly? It’s not that hard really, I’d be really if they took me to those cooler malls without even having to eat. I would be very happy if they actually bought me a piece of clothing that isn’t thrifted or a hand me down, but they just can’t even tho we have the money for it already, is it really hard?

[screampied]

hello >:) 🧛‍♀️ anon here! I got an idea that I want to throw up on here so I can sleep peacefully at night😭 it's a familyfriend!vampire!toji au like... this might not make sense but let me explain! imagine your dad introduces you (and your family: mom, siblings, closer family members...) to a man he has met not so long ago, maybe a new colleague, or someone he met at a horse race,,, and he quickly becomes a family friend: getting invited to family dinners, hangouts, etc... tho you can sense that something is so off about this man; i think vampire toji's physical appearance is not the main thing that gives away the fact that hes a vampire (yk how in most vampire aus, the vampire character has super obvious features like extremely pale, unrealistic colored eyes, sharp fangs, etc...) I think the thing that could give off hints that hes not a normal person is probably stuff he has accidentally said, or even did: how he panicked when he found out the dish your mom made had garlic in it and ran off mid dinner to the bathroom, how he was telling your dad about a memory and it mentioned that "phones did not exist at the time" (headcanon: vamp toji is at least 600 years old), how he avoids mirrors at all costs, how you overheard him saying to your younger sibling how a scar on his face is almost older than your dad (when he's APPARENTLY a little younger than your dad) and all that I hope I am not being annoying with this AU but I am a sucker for vampire aus😭 this is a little too long but I thought I would share it with u hehe anw have a good day or night, sorry again for how long and messy this ask it 😮‍💨

VAMPYYYYYYY omg you’re not annoying i’m all for it !!!! esp since i dunno two fat shits about vampire au's so i am taking notes from your expertise 🤚🏽

stop i love this the garlic BYEEEEE. that’d be so awkward, i can imagine him like :000 once he realizes he just digested garlic. oooo he’s a oldie, woah vampires can’t see their reflection ?? what stuff r vampires what’s the word … their weakness idk, all ik is that they don’t like sunlight or garlic right 🧍🏽

NO PLEASE KEEPGOING this is gonna be a good brain rot for a while 🥴

Oh the bois be fighting. You’re both terrible at this. It’s fun to see them bullying one another tho

—

Well I dunno what’s happening. Spill

—

Mmmmm is it really cheating if he’s using magic like we are? I mean, Ace and Deuce don’t have any and Jack’s is useless underwater, but I feel like it’s still fair game

—

Oh I feel the older brother disappointment radiating from Jade. Such a mood. Wishing for consistency in behaviour

As the oldest to adhd siblings, I feel this in my soul

—

Yeah. I kinda like being alive so we’ve gotta work something out I guess. Maybe they’ll leave once they’re bored. Or we wait for one of Floyd’s inevitable mood swings so he’s worse at magic

—

WAIT THEY’RE STAYING THERE??? THEY’RE GONNA GUARD THE MUSEUM??? DOES AZUL WANT THIS PHOTO OR NOT?! DAMN! GOD YOU TWO ARE JUST LIKE THE KIDS THAT GUARDED T.O DURING TAG AND FUCKING NO ONE LIKED THOSE KIDS! YOU BOTH SUCK

—

Well I’m glad the potion knew the exact moment to wear off

That did kinda suck tho. Surely they can’t guard that thing 24 hours a day for the whole 3 days we got right? They’re not that dedicated to the shit… right???

—

Oh we should definitely be hitting up Ruggie, our resident stealing man. In fact we should just bring him down with us instead of the dumbass trio. Save us on potions and we’d have someone with decent brain cells aside from Jack
