Mini hc of a s/o loves to scrap book/journal gifting them (the m6) a scrap book of their relationship (with little blurbs and anecdotes)?
The Arcana Mini-HCs: MC giving M6 a scrapbook of their love story
Julian: so touched that you have to tell him to actually open and read it five times, because he's too busy marveling that it exists. does the best voice for reading it out loud, keeps choking on the loving parts
Asra: initially wants to savor the experience and suggests reading one page spread a night. gets butterflies thinking about it at 3 am and binges the whole thing while you sleep. buys apology pumpkin bread
Nadia: receives it gratefully and insists on waiting to read it until she can have a private dinner with you and linger over every page as long as she wants to. gets a bejeweled lock box to keep it safely in
Muriel: won't take it at first because his hands are sweating from the emotions and he doesn't want to ruin the beautiful cover. has to ask you to read it to him as you snuggle, hides his blush in your hair
Portia: ecstatic. pauses everything she's doing and brews some tea to sip while you read it together on her kitchen table. quotes it for weeks and starts work on her own scrapbook to give to you in return
Lucio: loudly proclaims it's his greatest treasure, unthinkingly grabs it five minutes later to swat out a stray spark from the campfire. sews a new cover for it all by himself (it's wrinkled and crooked and perfect)

Hi! Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening! How are you? Hope you're having a pleasant time and don't forget to hydrate with water!😊✹
Oh and could you write a blurb about the Yan.Rise!Turtles' reactions if they saw MC who is video-chatting them, went into an animal expo and found their designated species and MC just excitedly compares or mocks or teases or bullies them lovingly like
 👉👈
MC: Hey check it out! It's you guys! HAHAHA!! Oh mi Gosh! Is that the big buff red Raph? He's so bulky! pats the shell Awww look at the Mikeys, they're so cute! scoops out one of them Hi Donnie! whispers shouts Leo! What are you doing there??/jk
And are their reactions gonna be jealous? Enjoys MC's excited blabbering? Laughs along with them? Give fun facts? I imagine one of them saying like "Why love that when you can love this very handsome turtle instead?" hehehe maybe Leo would say that stuff! đŸ€”
Sorry if this blurb is kinda confusing/awkward to you! Hehehe it's my first time so I'm nervous since I love your posts for a long time now! Have a good day/noon/night! 💖😄
~ ☁ Anon
At first I was confused af but after reading it 3 times I just realized how simple it is-
I'm slowly but surely getting my inbox cleared- just randomly working on it.
Tw: Leo gets so pissy over a mini-version of himself
Reaching New Homosexual Autism Heights:
He finds it cute that you're teasing him. Although, he is a bit worried you might get your finger bitten off considering his species tends to be violent sometimes. If you like to nerd about his species, he's quite surprised. He ends up learning more than he knew about himself.
Last RuPaul Runway:
HOMIE IS NOT HAVING IT. Like man's getting beefy with a turtle of his own species. He’s like trying to maintain his smile but at the same time he’s like “Listen- I know they’re cute and all, but aren’t I cuter? I mean
I can at least do some cool tricks.” He will glare at the turtles.
Daily Banana Swallowing:
He’s deadpan the entire time. He occasionally might give a warning to be cautious of being bit. But other than that he’s just listening while occasionally sharing another fact. He’s much more interested in you rather than himself.
Marinated Fungus:
He’s calling the turtles cute, and listening the entire time. He laughs along to all the teasing
Internally, he actually doesn’t really care much for the turtles. But if you like them, then he’ll happily join. He’ll find the facts about him interesting though.
(AHA- Did you guys miss the funky names? I sure did. It's been a good while)

My spread for To The Moon! A friend recommended me this game and although there were a lot of things I really liked about this game, I really really don't like sad stories so this particular game just wasn't for me. The storytelling and art and music was all super well done!! I just hate reading or watching something that will leave me depressed afterwards.
So I do recommend this game if you like sad stories and my score is very subjective to my personal tastes, so don't let that deter you if you are interested in this game. I also gave Celeste a low score even though if I had watched a playthrough instead of playing it, it would've been way higher (I hated the mechanics but loved the art and storytelling). It's just not for me and that's totally okay!
Writing typed below! + extra blurb
rating: 7 played: su 2023 port: pc (steam) fave? N replayable? N recommend? Y
Comments:
"he likes cats" "why does the world have to be so complicated"
i'm worried this will turn into a horror game lol. the art reminds me of the witch
so many rabbits
"you neurotypicals" i... don't think this convo has anything to do with neurodivergency
the environments are so gorgeous
repetitive gameplay- slows down storytelling
i like river's expressive eyes
cute lighthouse scene
if i had known the gameplay was this simple i prob wouldve watched keith or a similar lets player
aww pretty horse
oo it's getting creepy
why is neil missing
^ LMFAO NVM
OH SHIT
fucked they made him forget his own brother
NOT JOEY THIRD WHEELING
damn i do not like the mom
the fair is really cute
the river name scene is pissing me off (as someone who has such a rare name ive never met another person with my name irl or online, river is not that uncommon of a name T_T_T_T_TT_T)
awww his brother's back
the memory tech stuff is very confusing
idk why eva was so sketch i think neil wouldve agreed to it
why was the pill addiction relevant?? did i miss something??
Game notes:
beautiful music and pixel art
point and click walking
collect orbs to unlock memories
puzzle grid for memories
whac-a-mole with pretty janky controls
apparently you can move with arrow keys T_T
"combat" scene with dodging and shooting
Summary:
Although I liked the story and thought the thing was very wellmade, this game just wasn't my particular cup of tea. Similar to Celeste, I prob would've liked it if I had watched it instead. It's a depressing tale esp after realizing all the work you do is just some simulation and joey still died and river still died heartbroken. It's absolutely a game I'd recommend for people who like sad/sappy stories but it's not something I'd personally replay. Idk if I'll watch or play through the extra content, again this story just made me kinda depressed and i don't enjoy this feeling. I'm also confused why they acted like river's diagnosis was taboo or smth, she had smth like autism right? Why did they say so... The art style is very cute and the animations were done incredibly well. The environments were especially superbly made. The controls were a little odd esp for the mini games. A little disappointed I didn't learn to use the arrow keys until the last ten minutes of the game. Eva and Neil were fun characters, i liked their dynamic. I understand the structure of the story and finding key pieces of their life, but the gameplay got pretty repetitive and tedious until the switch in act 2/3. Overall, a good game with beautiful designs and simple mechanics. If you like sad/tragic stories then I def recommend. This game reminds me a lot of UP (the movie) so I think MC would really like this game (an old teacher of mine).
Also a little note on my comments for autism, I also have autism so it just felt a little weird playing this game. I'm sure the attitudes around autism were much different in the time they were depicting (probably around the mid to late 20th century) but it still rubbed me the wrong way that it seemed everyone treated river poorly, especially her husband. And I also just hate miscommunication tropes so bad so part of that really played into some of the diagnosis and storytelling. Again, not a game for me personally and these were just my critiques but I'm not actually or seriously offended by this game, I just hate sad shit!!!!!!

IT Fic ideas/ mini plots? blurbs? i’m posting this for @def-livv ! i also will give anyone like use of anything from this, feel free to take the ideas and make some good stories or rewrite some of the things i’ve written. they’re not bad but not great either but i hope you enjoy these things i’ve written ! also note that these were for me to remember stuff i’ve imagined in my head so sorry if there’s notes that don’t make sense to you or if the stories have little to no good detail and yeah whatever! enjoy it or don’t :P
Having nightmares about IT before he came back in 1989, and stopping him from killing everyone (hero mc and no bad stuff happens other than bowers gang thinking mc is crazy:/ /sad
being friends with the bowers gang and throughout a few months they all realize they like mc and all hide it from each other but also they all go after mc. they do have fights but it’ll end up poly probably
mc likes patrick, patrick “likes” mc and thinks she may be real but is very wishy washy with her, one day he’s all over her, next day he couldn’t give a shit (to mess with her) but is still very possessive. stuck in the middle vibes
henry likes mc, says they’re dating and mc is pretty sweet and kinda goes along with it thinking he’ll get bored. henry and mc fall in love and he starts changing (getting nicer, understanding he shouldn’t be abused and that it’s not right) she gets him to slowly move into her house with her and her parents and they sorta adopt him and show him what a real family is like. saving his life/raising him right au
boys hardcore bully mc but she’s a little bit yandere and is inlove with patrick/henry/all of them (whatever i’m feeling ig) they catch some jocks messing with her one day and all kinda think “that’s our victim!” and protect her, making her fall more in love and they slowly slowly slowly start to get softer towards her. bullies/victim to friends to lovers vibe
this is a blurb blurb/imagine vibe
mc is henry’s neighbour and in the winter sees him shoveling his big driveway all by himself so her and her dad go over with a snow blower and shovel to help. melts his heart a little bit ;) gentle mother!figure/ guardianangel!reader type vibes
also little headcanons for some plots:
- avery was never killed. so patrick isn’t at psychotic or deranged but still a jerk to his bro (who’s about 9-10) so about a 10 year age gap (depending on how old you want pat, i obviously picture him aged up and LEGAL!!!!!!!)
- vic has 2 older sisters
- henry has a soft spot for mc
- most of the time bowers gang can’t say no to mc
- when they go into town (like the movies or arcade) mc always runs ahead of the boys to give the losers club (if they happen to be there, they usually are) a heads up so they can scatter before the bowers gang rains terror
- reggie let’s mc practice driving stick shift in amy
- vic is the one mc trusts the most and they get along the most, they like similar things and he’ll keep secrets for mc (most of the time)
- in order of who mc trusts from most to least it’s: vic, reggie, henry, patrick
- mc loves to cuddle and innocently will pick one of the boys to cuddle with and tends to fall asleep on them. (they did draw on her face once or twice. jerks) but after knowing mc for a while, the boys started fighting over who mc sat with and would make plans to get mc to choose them
- mc is extremely loyal and gives entire heart into whoever mc cares about (the boys, mostly patrick, will exploit that) but mc does have limits and pushes back sometimes when they inevitably take things too far
- an “oc” who is matteo riddle đŸ€Ș is the neighbour across from mc and they’re good buddies. he’s mainly for plot so mc has one friend outside of bowers gang
- sometimes, on days where the boys don’t force mc to hang out, she finds herself with the losers club. they’re funny and sweet and it gives mc a break, they’re refreshing. she spends most of the time talking to beverly, it’s nice to have a girl to talk to
 and complain about the boys to.
- mc parents i usually picture are joy summers and rupert giles from buffy the vampire slayer. they are comfort parents and giles is a step-dad and mc has a jackass biological dad mc does not talk to. (for plot, mc has daddy issues too. helps to connect with henry)
- mc gets henry into drumming (safer way to get the anger out) he gets pretty good pretty quickly
- plot/blurb
the boys have a bet to see who can get mc to like them first
bowers gang along with their newer addition, are driving along and of course, the boys are bickering.
“we should go here!”
“no this place is way better! drive us there belch”
“fuck off! we’re going to this spot!”
reggie looks in the rear view mirror at mc, “where would you like to go mc?”
mc looks up at him, smiles shyly and thinks.
“maybe the big arcade? that’s in the next town? that could be fun! we don’t have to though” mc recoils in their seat, making themselves small.
reggie smiles, then it turns into a smirk as he looks at the boys, he’s so gonna win this, “ arcade it is darlin’”
—
at the arcade, they all spread out finding stuff to play. reggie and vic find the muscle man hammer game, patrick finds kids to scare and steal their tokens from, and mc follows henry, who has found the astro starfighter game (where you shoot meteors).
henry keeps losing and losing the game, then losing his temper, “fuck! fuck! fuck! this game is so fucking stupid and it’s a piece of shit” he starts kicking it. mc is laughing their guts out, they think henry is so funny, (they don’t really know him yet). “what the fuck are you laughing at?!” henry yells, mc wipes the tears from their eyes, giggles still bubbling out, “you’re just funny!
 and so bad at this game! hahaha! it’s cute” mc laughs again. henry doesn’t know how to react, he’s being made fun of, but mc is so sweet about it and he knows they’re not being mean. before he can say anything, mc places a hand on his arm, “let me try!” and steps in drop of the game. “hmmm. henry? what should i get if i win?” mc asks coyly (or cheekily, but i think coyly). henry thinks for a seconds, then smirks, “i’ll give you a kiss” he says with a wink. he knows he’s going to win this bet. “oh gee! a kiss from henry bowers? i better be good!” mc grins and turns back to the game. they play for a while, getting higher and higher in the levels, mc finally gets to the boss level, “oh my god! oh my god! fuck you! i got you you’re so done you stupid ship!” (i think it also has aliens in it?) mc is blasting and blasting and! an asteroid hit them
 they died. “no! aw are you kidding i was so close!” mc said disappointed, “damn it! that’s fuckin rigged” henry said, made he won’t get to kiss mc, but it comes off as him being on their side, they should’ve won!
mc turns to henry and kisses his cheek. henry is shocked, but tries to hide it. not well. “thanks for motivating me” mc says with a smile, already over losing that amazing play through. henry feels proud, he did motivate mc didn’t he. they wanted to kiss him and that’s why they tried so hard. it made him feel good, feel important and needed. that was the first moment he started really falling for mc.
they then wandered over to patrick, to drag him away from the poor children, got reg and vic, and went over to the skee ball, where they cheated and got a bunch of tickets and tried to pick a prize for mc all again, bickering.
“mc would like that bunny! get the bunny”
“no get the tiger! it’ll make em think of me!”
“get the skull head. it’s sick.”
“what about that cow! mc always points them out”
this time vic is the one to turn to mc, “which one would you like? pick one!” he says excitedly albeit aggressively.
“well, the bunny is pretty cute” mc says, the guy at the counter turns and grabs the bunny off the shelf and hands it to mc. vic grins, he knew they’d like the bunny. he walks up to mc and puts his arm around their shoulder, “that thing is pretty dang cute huh, like you” he says, mc looks up at him and laughs a little, shaking their head. “you’re a dork” mc says, but there’s a slight blush on their face. “alright let’s go. i’m fuckin’ hungry” henry says, breaking up the sweet moment between friends. they walk out the arcade and head home. on the car ride home, mc falls asleep on patrick’s shoulder, cuddling the bunny. they all glance at mc, so innocent. they all glance at each other and though it isn’t said out loud, the bet is off, and the games are on. may the best man win. (mc’s heart that is (; )
-henry had never had tacos before (half because of neglect, half because the bitch is racist) but one time mc invites him over for dinner, after hearing that he has never had tacos, which is atrocious. mc was horrified and jokingly tried to hold henry bowers, wrapping her arms around his neck, and petting his ratty mullet, calling him a dear poor thing. he pushed her away and told her to fuck off. mc laughed it off as she usually does, staying light-hearted and unoffended. and says that she’ll see him at 6.
6 o’clock arrives, and so does henry. as he walks through the door of mc’s house, he is hit with a (waff?) of spices and meat, it smelled delicious. he walks into the kitchen with mc and there stands her mom finishing up the lettuce and tomatoes. “mom, henry’s here!” mc said to her mother. mc’s mom turns around and greets him warmly, “oh hello henry! nice to finally meet you! grab a plate, we’re ready to get started” she smiles and goes to wash off her hands in the kitchen sink. mc and henry grab a plate and walk over to the kitchen counter where all the food is laid out for them. sour cream, salsa, hot sauce, rice, grated cheese, lettuce, tomato and guac! the beef steaming in the pan still on the stove, fresh off the burner. mc starts making her taco and henry just watches. mc noticed and smiles, “henry are you gonna make a taco? or just stand there looking devilishly handsome?” mc says with a wink. she loved to flirt with him jokingly, that way it wasn’t real and her feelings couldn’t be hurt. it was easier that way. he rolls his eyes at mc while scoffing, but then frowns slightly, “i don’t know what to put on it” mc blinks, “oh! i’ll make it for you!” mc starts making him two tacos, one with everything on it (the delicious one) and a plain one, with just meat and cheese (picky eaters choice) “try this one first. it’s just meat and cheese, it’ll ease ya right in” mc says and turns to make hers. they go and sit down at the table, henry looks at his plate and mc is staring at him, waiting. he looks up at her and barks out instinctively, “what?” mc laughs a little, “eat your taco! i want to see your reaction!” she scoots forward a little on her seat. henry again rolls his eyes at her, but he thinks she’s adorable, eyes gleaming with excitement. he picks up the smaller less stuffed taco of the two on his plate, gives mc one last glance and then takes a bite of the taco. and then another. and another. and then it’s gone. mc giggles and claps her hands together, he liked it! he LOVED it! henry looks at mc and says, “that was alright” it’s mc’s turn to roll her eyes, “try the good one now!” mc presses, “the good one? i liked the one i just ate. that one ain’t good?”
“yeah it was good but this one will be even better”
henry looked like his head exploded, it didn’t but what did explode were the flavours in his mouth.
henry likes tacos a lot now. and whenever mc’s family does a taco night, you can bet your butt henry will be sitting at that table chowing down like it’s his last meal.
- bowers gang are all hanging with mc in her room, chilling on her floor, her and henry are sitting on the bed. mc stretches, then slips under the covers and turns and faces the wall.
“what are you doing?” the boys ask, confused. “i’m gonna take a nap. you can come cuddle if you want” mc says sleepily, henry is the closest and first to jump into action, slipping under the covers between mc and the wall. she cuddles into him , “you’re so warm” mc said, she paused for a moment and then said, “that’s what he said” and giggles a little.
“i don’t get it” said vic
“you wouldn’t. virgin” mc says bluntly, voice slightly muffled as she snuggled into henry some more.
the boys all laugh and mc drifts off to sleep.
- henry’s birthday is april 17th and he’s an aries (i think i saw this in a fic or just a post one time that he gives off aries vibes and idk if they said april 17th or if i am crazy and made it up)
- POV: you’re at a video store, it’s pouring rain out so you and the bowers gang are looking for a movie or two to watch.
“oh pat! let’s get the goonies! i love that movie!” you say excitedly, grabbing it off the shelf and holding it in your arms.
“no fucking way. that movies for babies” patrick says annoyed, “we’re going to get a horror movie. i’m thinking poltergeist”
“are you kidding? if this movies for babies then goo goo ga ga motherfucker. i want to watch the goonies” you say, irritated.
POV: you’re helping reggie’s mom with her garden. you didn’t tell the boys and they were out looking for you. they drive past reggie’s house and see you’re BEHIND as you’re bent over pulling weeds out of the garden. they pull into the driveway, get out of the car and make their way over to you, henry is first to speak, “hey sweet thang. do you look as good in the front as you do in the back?” he said, the boys chuckle behind him, you roll your eyes and turn around, “hey hot stuff! whatcha packin?” you laugh, the boys are surprised to see you there, “mc? what are you doing at my house?” reggie says confused,
“i’m helping your mom out with gardening!” you say with a smile, reggie’s mom, who was in the kitchen getting drinks walks out and says,”mc has been such a good help! and she’s tough, carrying all those dirt and mulch bags for me!” mc blushes under the boys’ stares, looking impressed and maybe even a little proud. their girl is tough. “would you boys want to help? it’ll get the garden done quicker and we haven’t started on the back yet” reggie’s mom asked, really hoping to put the boys to work and take a break. pat and vic start to say no but henry answers for everyone, “sure mrs. huggins, we ain’t got nothin better to do”
the rest of the afternoon you and the boys did weeding, put new plants into the garden,fresh dirt and mulch. reggie’s mom brought out drink as you all finished up, you were the first to go over for a drink, thanking her. “i should be the one thanking you! those boys would’ve been gone before i even finished asking for help! they stayed to be with you” mrs huggins said with a wink. you blush and smile shyly, the thought of them just wanting to hang out with you was nice, making you feel wanted. “i don’t know about that” you say bashfully, mrs. huggins waves a hand at you, “oh please darlin’, you are so sweet and absolutely gorgeous! of course they want to be around you!” you shrug it off and hide your grin behind your drink, fresh lemonade. you look over at the boys, oblivious still that they all like you and think you’re worth spending a day in the dirt for.
ok i saw a jealously scale thing and while i love a jelly boy i think it was a little inaccurate so here’s my kinda idea about it:
- henry: 10/10
this one stays the same as the og post i saw. he has abandonment issues and was raised to think he’s a piece of garbage. so he is very insecure and scared that you’ll leave him, making him very jealous and possessive of you.
- patrick: 3/10
now in the other post it said he was like 100000/10 but i don’t think that’s true. patrick is possessive of course, you’re his play thing and he doesn’t want others to touch you, but he thinks that you’re the lucky one, to be able to date this god of a man and if he thinks you’re real, then he has no fears of someone else taking you from him cuz they’re fake, how could they?
- vic: 7/10
i think vic’s was around 7/10 which to me makes sense. he’s a small guy and he can have an attitude which can sometimes make him difficult to be around. he really likes you and like henry is afraid of driving you away. so he keeps a close eye on you and is always nearby, never letting another man get a chance to take you from him.
- reggie: 10/10
now i’m this og post, reggie is a 1/10. he’s secure in his relationship with you. i don’t think that’s the case.
he’s a chubby boy, we all know this and that makes him insecure. all his friends are fit good looking guys and all flirts. he is handsome though as you tell him constantly but, he still gets this creeping feeling, that you’ll wake up one day and find him repulsive and leave him for one of his “better looking friends” that makes his a little hot headed and possessive. when you’re joking around with one of the other boys, he sees it as flirting, which usually leads to a fight. most of the time you can talk through it though as since he’s been seeing you, he’s gotten better as communicating his feelings to you.
- this connects back to my movie “blurb”
- having the movie night and it’s storming real bad. you’re in patrick’s basement and while watching his chosen movie “the omen” the power goes out.
- he shuffles around in the dark, finds some candles and lights them
-you all sit around the small coffee table and decide to tell scary stories to pass the time
-patrick of course had other “ideas” wink wink nudge nudge but he was quickly smacked upside the head
- after a while of telling scary stories and the boys scaring the bejesus out of you (jerks) the power comes back on, but the weather is still bad.
-mrs. hockstetter calls down to all of you in the basement to ask if you’d like to stay the night as it’s “not safe what so ever”
- you all agree and head into the kitchen to call your parents- minus henry
-you all start to get ready to go set up makeshift beds in the basement when mrs. hockstetter stops you, saying you can sleep in avery’s room and he’ll stay with her as mr. hockstetter was on a business trip
-you go to tell her it’s fine but she insists and says she doesn’t need more babies made in her house
-so you follow her to the younger hockstetter’s room, avery follows and grabs his favourite stuffy before saying goodnight to you and running out
-mrs. hockstetter makes a point of telling you to lock the door so the boys don’t come in and says goodnight
-you sigh and crawl into the little twin bed and turn on the lamp on his bedside table
-meanwhile, in the basement, henry and pat got the couches and vic and reg got the floor (poor babies)
-reg was out like a light, snoring so loudly it could shake the house
-the rest of the boys couldn’t sleep
-henry gets up to you see you and patrick asks where the fuck he’s going
-“i’m going to take a wizz! fuck off” henry said
-he creeps upstairs and goes towards the room you’re staying in and lightly knocks on the door
-he hears a soft whisper, “who is it?”
-“it’s henry” he reply’s back just as quiet
-the lock turns and the door whips open and henry is pulled into the room and the door was quietly shut again, the lock stays unturned
-you ask henry what he needs and he says he can’t sleep cuz belch is snoring like a pig so he came you see if he could sleep with you
-you giggle and say yes, glad he came up cuz you also couldn’t sleep, and knew you’d sleep better with someone in the room with you
-you both go over to the twin sized bed and squeeze in. you’re both squished next to each other but you don’t mind
-few minutes pass, you and henry are chattering a bit as you try to let sleep take over you, talking about the day and telling inside jokes
-suddenly the door opens. you think it’s mrs. hockstetter, she heard you let henry in and you’re in trouble but it’s much worse. it’s patrick
-he asks what the fuck you two are doing and if you’re sleeping together
-you shush him a little and say no, that you both couldn’t sleep and that was that
-patrick says it’s not fair henry gets to sleep with you and he wants to as well
-you say that the bed is way too small for all three of you so he says you’ll sleep in his room
-you all creep across the hall to patrick’s room and vic shows up asking what you’re doing
-“were going to bed” you whisper
-“i’m coming too” he whispers back, “belch is gonna burst my goddamn eardrum”
-giggles start to bubble out of you and you try to be quiet. you’re tired and you need to go to bed
-you all climb into patrick’s bed, it’s a queen but it’s not comfy
-the four of you are clambering around, vic is complaining and so is henry. you finally have enough, you get vic to cross the hall with you and you grab avery’s bed and quietly bring it into patrick’s room and set it on the floor
-you grab the pillows and blankets too and then close the door and you go to sit on the twin bed
- henry and pat start to stop you, “no hey! you’re up here with us” henry whisper-yells
-you roll your eyes and give vic the blanket and pillow before hopping into patrick’s bed and squeezing inbetween them, “there. happy?” you say, though you didn’t really care where you slept
-as you all really settle in for the night you can’t help but voice that you feel bad you all ditched reggie
-the boys all say he’ll live and he deserves to sleep along with how loud his pig nose is
-you smack them for saying that and then sigh amd say “fine. g’night” and you all fall into a slumber, rain pitter pattering on the window
-early in the morning reggie woke up and saw all the boys missing and made his way upstairs to find you all asleep in pats room. he frowns and steps in closing the door.
-he steps over vic, who rolled off the twin bed in the night and lays on it himself and falls back asleep. he snores again but it’s much lighter and less disturbing
-later in the morning, mrs. hockstetter and avery wake up and go to make some breakfast. she walks by avery’s room and sees the door ajar. she peaks her head in and sees his bed missing. she turns and goes to patrick’s room opening the door and what a sight.
-in the twin bed reggie is sprawled out, next to him on the floor with just his legs on the bed is vic. on the queen bed, henry is half off the bed and patrick is squished into the wall and you, a great big star fish in the middle of the bed, your limbs sprawled over both the boys.
-mrs.hockstetter tries not to laugh and goes and gets her camera and takes a photo of all of them. she chuckles and shakes her head. how silly of her to try and keep them apart
a plot i tend to put into my henry x reader more or my bowers gang x reader is henry seeking comfort with you. i don’t think i’ve written about this yet in here?
so one night, after a particularly bad beating, henry runs to your house. he remembers you saying one time that you never lock the outside basement door so he got into your house through there.
he walks up the basement stairs as quietly as he can and all the way up the main stairs to your room. he’s not sure if he should wake you up or not, but he decides he needs to, he needs you. he shakes your shoulder, whispering your name, his voice a little shaky and desperate. you blink awake and sit up in a split second and turn on your bedside lamp. you blink as your eyes adjust and then lay on henry. you ask him what he’s doing in your house, and if he’s okay.
he starts sniffling and then let’s put a quiet sob. you get him to sit down and notice some blood seeping through the back of his shirt, you don’t say anything, you know what it’s from and you know he doesn’t want to talk. you can help him in the morning. for now you take his shoes off for him and then get him to slide into bed. you turn off the lamp and slide in too.
you ask him to come here and he immediately turns and wraps his arms around you, crying softly into your shoulder. you pet his head softly as you hold him. he eventually falls asleep and so do you, peacefully holding each other. you are his safe haven.
of course, in the morning he’ll threaten to gut you if you tell anybody. you didn’t plan on it and tell him that. you then tell him if he ever wants to, he’s always welcome in your home. he scoffs and turns away from you, going to leave and then stops at the door and says thanks. you grin softly, you know that was hard for him to say. he leaves, but he’ll be back soon.
he starts staying over so much he has his own drawer in your dresser, he has a toothbrush on your bathroom counter and shampoo and body wash in your shower. he eats dinner with your family almost every night. your parents never asked or minded why he stayed, they had a pretty good guess to why, they’ve met butch bowers a handful of time.
henry learns to help around the house, he’s grateful to be welcomed in and you tell him that’s a good way to show it. and he really likes hanging out with your dad. your dad doesn’t drink except for the occasional bourbon, and is a nice quiet man and doesn’t lose his temper often and is very understanding. he takes henry under his wing a bit. (showing him what a real man is)
the biggest realization henry had when he realized he shouldn’t be treated the way he was by his father, was when he accidentally knocked over a glass of water at dinner one night. it shattered on the ground, henry immediately tensed up, muttering an apology and moving to get it, keeping his head down. your parents brushed it off saying it was okay, your dad jumped a little bit telling henry not to touch the glass. it scared henry and all he said was “sir?” your dad explained that he didn’t want henry to cut his hands and asked you to go grab the dust pan and vacuum. you did and started cleaning up the glass for your friend. he tried to let you do it but you said it was fine, you’ve broken your fair share of dish ware and we’re an “expert” at cleaning it up. your dad went into a story of how you tried to cook a frozen muffin in the microwave and put it in for so long you burned not only the muffin, but also the plate which shattered and left the house smelling like a burnt muffin for a week. looking back at that moment made him laugh as he also explained that it only happened when you were 14.
henry relaxed a bit after that, knowing they weren’t mad. but he was still waiting for the switch to flip, for your mom or dad to rage out, smack him and kick him out of the house, but it never came. after you tidied up the glass you got him a new one and sat down to finish your dinner.
after everyone was done, henry cleaned up the table, put away the leftovers and helped you grab dessert. your parents thanked him multiple times to which he kept replying, “it’s the least i can do”, that night when he went to bed (your parents moved him into the guest room but he would still sneak into your room every other night) he made the point to hug you tight as you went to say goodnight. you weren’t expecting it, but gladly accepted. you asked what it was for, not that you weren’t happy to hug your friend, and tells you he loves you and he’s glad he met you. you’re shocked at his words, tears well up in your eyes and you hug him tighter. he doesn’t say it out loud but, you saved him.
-okay little angst moment! idk if this has already been written? if it was it’s long since been deleted so

-POV: you’re patrick’s girlfriend
-so it’s the whole plot of IT. the only difference is that you’re in the story.
-after patrick “goes missing” you’re in spiralling depression. the love of your life is gone
-you still hang with the boys as they’re your best friends too, though you don’t bully kids
-you grew closer with henry, being each others rocks.
-one day you’re walking down the street and you see the losers club walking down the street, freaking out. you keep walking past until you hear eddie start to freak out, “the clown! i saw him at the creepy old house in neibolt” you freeze. you saw that clown. outside your window, flicking a lighter. patrick’s lighter
-you go up to them and ask them what they know about the clown. theyre reluctant at first, afraid the rest of the bowers gang are near. you tell them they’re not and you all walk to the park and they explain what they saw.
-you tell them if they ever need your help with IT. you would be there. but the first time they would need you, you weren’t there.
-bev calls you one summer afternoon and you rush to her house. she tells you all that happened at the house. richie, eddie and bill went in. ben, stan and her stayed out. eddie fell through the ceiling and broke his arm, she stabbed the clown in the face with a iron spike, it almost tore ben apart with said spike, but they hurt IT. because they were together.
-you don’t hear much about them after that and you stick with your gang.
-later in the summer you get a call from bill. beverly was taken. you’re pissed. it’s time to get your revenge and kill this fucking clown. you know he took patrick.
-you meet the losers club at neibolt and they tell you the plan. you make your way down to the well, the kids start climbing down. you’re helping mike when henry comes out and tries to kill him.
-“henry!” you scream, “stop! what are you doing” you’re petrified, why is he doing this?
-“i have to! i have to kill them all! kill. you. all.” he said, deranged.
-“what do you mean henry?” you ask shakily, hoping to distract him so like can get away.
-henry suddenly softens, the slightest. it’s you. his sweet y/n. “don’t worry y/n. you’ll be with them again. hockstetter. vic. belch. you can be with them. float. with them. you’ll float too! You’ll float too! hahaha!” like he flipped a switch he’s back to the lunatic version that came in and starts running for you.
-you tackle him, and knock the knife out of his hand. he growls and grabs you, flipping you over and he’s on top of you. you kick him off and start crawling backwards, your hand lands on a brick. henry jumps for you and when he does, you swing. you hit him with the brick and it knocks him out.
- you’re panting and close to tears and mike asks if you’re okay. you shake your head, but say it’s fine.
-you find some extra rope and tie henry to a post. you’ll come back for him. as you walk back to the well, you pick up henry’s knife, god knows you’ll need it.
-you get down into the sewers where stan (was a dumbass and wandered off by himself??!! how is that bills fault? really??) was attacked.
-as you keep walking you think about henry’s words. he mentioned reggie and vic? they can’t be dead. you just saw them that morning. you get to the place where bev is being held. IT’s nest.
-bev is floating. they get her down and ben kisses her and then sweet little georgie comes out and bill shoots him and he freaks out.
as the battle insues and they’re trying to fight the clown and he’s holding bill hostage, he morphs again. into patrick. you’re patrick.
“come on doll. look at the stupid kid, he’s not worth it. let me have my fun with him and then i’ll be all yours k? take the little losers for ice cream or something and i’ll meet up with you later” “patrick” chuckles with a sly smile, but there’s a sinister look in his eyes
-your eyes well up with tears as you see him. the last time you’ll see him and it’s not even really him. “stop it! you stupid clown!” you cry.
-he growls and turns back into pennywise frowning, then he says his big ol thing about growing old and dying to the weeds yadayada
-richie then says his thing, “welcome to the losers club asshole!” and fighting begins again
-the kids are all swinging and taking hits and he’s trying to scare them but it’s not working. he goes after you and you just stand there staring. “i’m not scared of you, you stupid, stupid clown. you made a big mistake killing patrick. i’m going to kill you” you say, malice and determination in your voice.
-pennywise giggles, “oh? let’s see it then” but you know, he’s scared.
-you pull out henry’s knife and stab the clown in the eye. over and over again. he starts wailing and he throws you away from him. you slam into his junk pile and the kids keep hitting and hitting until he’s gone. whispering one final, “fear” and dropping into nothingness.
-when you get out, henry is dazed, he sees you, alive and starts weeping, “i’m so sorry! i’m sorry! i k-killed them! he made me!” he’s sobbing, “they’re with amy! i’m sorry!”
-you hear beverly call you, and you tell henry you’ll be right back and run up and out of the house.
-all the losers look at you, and bev shakily points towards the blue trans am across the street.
-you run towards it and then stop right in front, drop to your knees, and scream.
-you’re best friends, reggie and vic. sitting in reggie’s blue trans am “amy”, throats slit, blood down their necks, eyes staring, vacant and glassy.
-you lean over and vomit. the sight is so sickening. they’re dead. they’re all dead.
-you turn away from the car and go back inside the house, ignoring the losers as they call for you, saying not to do anything rash, you tell them to go home, they need to be far from henry. he’s still dangerous, but you can handle him.
-you walk into the basement, back to henry.
-“why?” your voice croaks, “why them?!” you yell out
-henry’s sobbing, still tied to the post, “i had to! he made me! he made me! my dad! and them! i had to
” he shouts and then trails off, tears running down his face, staring at nothing.
-you’re shocked. he killed his dad. he killed his dad and then he killed your best friends.
-“you can’t be mad y/n please! you’re all i have left please!” he suddenly cries out, writhing against the ropes.
-you start to cry harder and again, fall to your knees, next to henry, and hug him. he’s all you have left, you can’t leave him.
-you untie him and help him up, he’s still shaking. and you take him out to the car, “we’re getting rid of these bodies and then we’re getting out of here okay? we’re going to get you out of here” you say to him. he just nods, broken.
-you instruct him to grab reggie and you two carry him into neibolt, down to the basement, and throw him down the well. then you do the same with victor.
-you go back to the car and get in and drive to your house. you have a stash of money you’ve been saving. you run in quick and grab it, and any other essentials you can think of and you’re back out to the car.
-you look at henry, and tell him everything’s gonna be okay. you have each other, thats all that you need. and you drive out of derry, leaving it all behind.
(k note: i don’t like sad stuff so as i wrote this obviously it had a bittersweet ending but still kinda happy whatever. really the plot is, if i don’t go into detail, y/n losing her entire friend group and then going ape shit crazy on the clown. she’s not scared, just vengeful. so that’s basically what i wanted but i wrote something else???? it’s different trying to add details i guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
-i’m reading the book rn and YALL WANNA KNOW WHAT HENRY SMELLS LIKE? also he was held back a grade L
-henry and i quote, “had an oder of sweat and juicy-fruit gum that always hung about him.”
-WHAT!!! and why is it literally perfect and make so much sense
-meeting plot:
you’re walking down the street and get stopped by some creep and he’s trying to chat you up and you try and quickly get out of the situation and walk away. the man follows you, and then after a while starts calling out to you and getting closer. you start running and he starts chasing you. you found a corner and go to cross the street. as you’re running across the street you almost get hit by a car. they go into a screeching halt and you slammed your hands on the hood of the car. you look at the driver, and then the car, and then back to the driver. it’s belch huggins
 and the bowers gang. you call out amd say a quick and meek “sorry”, you’re out of breath and panting. henry calls out and asks if you wanna come for a ride. you pause to think for second. creepy man or bowers gang? you glance to your right and see the man coming around the corner. “bowers gang it is” you think. you round to the passenger side where henry is quickly, pull open the door, jump into his lap, and quickly close the door. belch puts the car into gear to start driving just as the man gets to the cross walk. you make eye contact with him and shrink into henry a bit. all the boys notice him. belch takes a quick glance at you, seeing your discomfort, you’re shaking slightly. he looks back at the man and sees that he’s walking around to the passengers side of the car. belch peels out, almost hitting the man. patrick whoops and laughs, vic calls out a fuck you to the man, whose now laying and panting on the side of the road, clutching his chest. you sigh in relief, glad to be away from him. you thank the boys, mainly belch, for the ride and relax a bit. realizing you just jumped into henry bowers lap to get away from that creep, you turn and quickly apologize, and say you can hop into the back, so you’re not crushing him. he chuckles and says that you’re perfectly fine right where you are. you blush and turn away. you try to get belch to drop you off, you could walk home now, they all say no, you’re hanging out with them. you comply, not wanting to get on the bad side of the scariest guys in town. you didn’t realize then what you’d be getting into.
henry: (lazily, not really serious, but annoyed) i’m gonna beat the shit outta you if you don’t stop
y/n: (not caring, completely unserious) well i’m gonna kiss you so hard that it’ll leave you breathless and wanting more
henry:
the boys:
henry: y/n what the fuck
this plot the boys bully y/n, but they end up saving her from some creeps and then there’s this like weird friends one day and bullies the next thing going on and then henry and y/n start to like each other and date in secret. patrick here’s a rumour that you turned a guy down because you have a crush but you deny it saying you didn’t want to hurt the guys feelings. vic and you bond over comic books so one saturday, you and him hang out, going to a comic book store. he asks you if you do have a crush, you say yes but you won’t tell him who. he wants to make a bet, 50 bucks says he can guess your crush by friday. you agree and set turns, he can have five guesses today and only 2 a day til friday, and he can’t tell the other boys about it or the bets off. he agrees and says he wants a hint about the crush so you tell him a nickname that you think fits your crush perfectly, “chihuahua”.
vic looks confused and then starts laughing, “chihuahua? why?” he asks chuckling,
“if you guess my crush you’ll get why”
idk if i already wrote this but we all know henry doesn’t talk about his feelings. but whenever you guys are together, he has a habit of tapping you three times. either when his hand is on your thigh, or he’s holding your hand, he taps three times. his way of saying “i love you”
tap tap tap.
so you have this guy at school who won’t leave you alone. he’s always asking you out, you always find a nice way to say no, always having an excuse as to why you can’t. one day he’s practically chasing you down the hall, trying to ask you out again. you turn a corner and see the bowers gang. you were in a survival mode trying to figure out how you can escape this nerdy teen predator, and walk up to the bowers gang. “henry! there you are!” you say cheerfully, he looks at you confused, you guys have maybe said one word to each other in your entire time in high school. you hear your name being called out again by your “admirer” and you don’t give henry any time to respond as you grab his shirt and pull him towards you, smashing your lips against his. he makes a surprised sound but doesn’t pull away, he sets his hands on your hips and pulls you closer, deepening the kiss, swiping his tongue against your bottom lip, you open your mouth and let him in, his tongue gliding along yours, it feels good. you hear a sound that sounds like a mix between a cough and someone choking, then a quiet “i ask you later” followed by someone running off.
he left! you got that creep to leave you alone! you break the kiss with henry, both of you slightly panting, he looks dazed, still confused and cocky, cause of course any girl would want to kiss him, he’s henry bowers, but before he can say anything and before the boys can say anything cuz they’re just as confused and in awe that you just did that, you just smile at henry, “thanks bowers! see you in class” you say, giddy, half from surviving almost being backed into a corner, again and half from kissing henry. he’s not a bad kisser, if you do say so yourself, and you do. you take off back down the hall the way you came and disappear around the corner.
the boys all stand there not knowing what happened, and patrick is the first one to say something, patting henry on the back, “way to go bowers! that chick was hot as fuck! how long have you been banging her?” he says, laughing. henry rolls his eyes and then smirks as he turns to patrick, “i’ve never talked to that girl in my life” he chuckles as the boys all again, stare in awe. henry turns back and looks in the direction you left in, and he knew that wasn’t going to be the last time he kissed you.
another thing with the fake dating trope.
henry really starts to like being the protector, he likes the feeling of being needed by someone, not feared. he likes it cuz he needs you as much as you need him, so he knows you won’t ever leave him, as long as you need him.
incorrect quote:
henry: Can you eat like a lady? are you capable of that?
y/n: Do you want me to eat like a lady? Or show you how much I can fit in my mouth?;) *takes a huge bite of a burger*
henry:
other characters that are apart of the bowers gang:
-Peter Gordon: A rich kid who joins bowers’ gang to boost his reputation
-Steve “Moose” Sadler: A big strong kid
-Gard Jagermeyer: So stupid they didn’t even bother to send him to summer school
one night you’re walking home from the library and these men start harassing you, you get scared and run from them. it starts pouring rain and you can hear them calling after you, they’re following you. you turn a corner and run into someone. you slammed on to him causing you both to let out an “oof” sound, and he grabs you by the shoulders. you let out a scream and try to get out of his grip, you don’t see who it is, it’s dark and your eyes are blurry from the rain. the man holding you hostage speaks up, “hey hey woah, what’s the matter y/n? it’s just me” the man says in a worried tone,but to you it sounds more amused than worried. patrick hockstetter. you stop thrashing and let out a sigh of relief and wrap your arms around his waist hugging him. he pats your back before pulling back from the hug, holding your shoulders again as he leans down a bit to look you in the eyes, “what’s the matter? you seem really freaked?” he asks concerned. you burst into tears, “these guys started harassing me and asking me to hang out with them and i didn’t want to and i ran and i think they’re chasing me” you cry, you’re shaking now, from fear and from being cold, you’re soaking wet at this point, the rain is coming down harder. “hey, it’s okay. you’re with me now, i won’t let anything happen to ya. come on, my house is around the corner” patrick says wrapping his arm around your shoulder and guiding you towards his house. you don’t say anything, just sniffle and let him take you. when you get to his house you both quietly enter, his family is well asleep by now. he grabs your hand and leads you down to the basement, where his bedroom is. “let me grab you some dry clothes” he says, he’s being awfully nice you think, very unlike patrick. while he’s distracted you take the chance to look at him, his clothes are soaked and weighing down on him, showing off how lanky he really is, his dark wet locks are dripping water onto his face, rolling down down his cheekbones, he looks pretty. you’ve never really looked at him like that before. maybe because he’s not being patrick, he’s someone else, gentler. you don’t know how long it will last but you’ll enjoy it while it does. he digs through his dresser and finds a shirt and pj pants, and walks over to you and hands them to you, “thank you” you say quietly, he smirks slightly, staring at you. he had a look in his eye, a patrick look, but nothing bad comes of it, like he’s holding back, “you can change in there” he says, pointing to a door, you assume is a bathroom, he never takes his eyes off you as you walk in and close the door. you quickly change and immediately feel warmer. you take your wet clothes and exit the bathroom, “where should i put these?” you ask, softly, “i throw them in the dryer for you” he says and grabs the wet clothes from your hands, “thank you” you say again. he doesn’t say anything and goes to put them in the laundry room around the corner. while you wait you take a look around his room, his bed has black sheets and is tucked into the corner, he’s got animal skulls and teeth and an assortment of bones littered across his dresser, side table and desk. rock and heavy metal band posters on the wall, as well as a bay watch poster, you giggle at that one. boys. patrick comes back into his room, his clothes now changed and he stops in front of you, and you just stare at each other for a second. “you okay now?” he asks, you nod, then yawn, “yeah m’just tired” you say through the yawn. you miss it but patrick gets a grin on his face and a glint in his eye but it’s gone in a flash as he puts on a gentle, concerned face, “let’s head to bed then yeah? it’s been a long night” he says putting his hand on the small of your back and guiding you towards his bed. you’re too tired to think straight at this point, so you let him guide you to the bed, and you crawl in tucking yourself into the corner, he slides in after you. you both get comfortable and lay facing each other, space in between you, “thank you for saving me” you whisper softly, sleep starting to take over,
“no problem. i couldn’t just leave you there, you looked so cute and small like a little bunny, you poor thing” he chuckled a little, his tone mocking, but you don’t notice it, “you think i’m cute?” you say, your tone jesting, but eyes are closed, your breathing evening out, you fall asleep. patrick grins as he stares at you, saying one final thing, you don’t hear, “yeah. very cute, and all mine” he whispered the last part, then grabs your waist and pulls you against him, you snuggle in deeper and he slowly falls asleep, holding you in his arms. you don’t realize what you’ve gotten yourself into.
the next morning you wake up to a car horn honking. you jolt awake, your head was on patrick’s chest, you feel his arms around your waist and you look down to see him asleep, “he looks peaceful, like an angel.” you snort at the thought. a fallen angel maybe. you then hear patrick’s mother call down to him, “patrick darling, the boys are here, it’s time for school!” she shouts down, he groans, rolling over, pulling you with him, he lays on top of you nuzzling his nose into your neck. you yelped as he did so. you try and shuffle away but he just holds you tighter and you feel him smirk against your neck. you sigh and roll your eyes, “patrick we have to get up, get off me! we have school! what time is it anyway?” you ask while trying to shove him off of you, looking around for a clock. all of a sudden he lets you go and you fling out of the bed with a yelp, “ow! what the fuck dude!” you say rubbing your head that you hit on the floor. he lets out a muffled chuckle, his face in his pillow. you stand up and glance at his desk, there’s a clock! it reads 7:45am. you freeze, “shit! we’ve got like 15 minutes we gotta go come on!” you say in a panic, patrick rolls over on to his back and stretches out, “shut the fuck up. it’s way to early for this shit, comere” he says reaching for you. you dodge his grabby hands and go into the laundry room to grab your clothes, “no! get up! we’re going to be late! please?” you say, you open the dryer and lean in to grab your clothes.
they’re still wet.
you run back into patrick’s room and shake him, “patrick! my clothes are still wet! did you put the dryer on?” you’re whisper yelling, you don’t want his mom to know you’re there. he finally gets up, leaning on his elbow and he looks up at you, he’s got a look in his eye, but you don’t see it, he smirks a little, “the power must have gone out bunny. don’t worry, you can borrow some of my clothes” he yawns at the end of the sentence and sits of stretching. he stands and walks into the bathroom shutting the door. you let out a puff of air and go into his closet, you find a pair of baggy ripped jeans and then in his dresser you find a pale yellow and bright red ringed shirt with a screaming cat face on it. cool. you quickly put that stuff on before he comes out of the bathroom. he walks out and grabs some random clothes off the ground and starts to change, then stops and looks at you, “um, a little privacy bunny?” he says and makes a spinning motion with his hand, you blush, “oh! right sorry. um do you have a spare toothbrush i can borrow?” you ask as you turn around facing away from him, you can almost hear the smirk in his voice as he says “just use mine” you tense a little, “ew! no way that’s so gross! we can’t share a toothbrush” you say, your voice rising a little, “ suit yourself. guess you’ll just have gross morning breath at school.” he says, you can hear the buckle of his belt clinking. you think for a moment, then sigh and walk over to the bathroom, “you don’t have any diseases right?” you ask as you pick up the toothbrush, you glance over at him, he’s now dressed and leaning against the door frame, “a disease? like what sweetheart?” he smirks tilting his head, you stare at him, “rabies.” you say bluntly, his eyes light up a little, and he smiles, his little weirdo smile and he licks his lips, “i might. wanna find out?” you roll your eyes, put toothpaste on the brush and stare at it, “ugh. whatever” you say and jam the toothbrush into your mouth. you quickly brush your teeth, then turn to patrick and stick the toothbrush into his hand, “there you go. your turn. be quick” you say and then rush into his room to get your hopefully dry shoes. you grab them and sit at the foot of his bed, they’re damp but nothing you can’t deal with. you put them on and then scan the room for your backpack. you find it sitting at the bottom of the stairs. right as you grab it he walks out. “okay let’s go!” you say pointing towards the stairs, bouncing on your toes. he rolls his eyes at you, grabbing his lighter off his desk, and a pencil off the floor, he gestures towards the stairs, you run up and quickly out the front door before his mom sees you. you hear her call out to him, “have a good day honey!” he slams the door shut.
you both walk towards the blue trans am. in the blue trans am, vic is the first to see you.
“holy shit” vic says, “look” he starts laughing.
“what?” henry says sharply and looks out his window. it’s you, sweet y/n, wearing hockstetter’s clothes and walking towards amy. “what the fuck?” henry says, belch chuckles “that fucking dog”
pat nods at the boys and you smile at them, patrick helps you slide into the car before hopping in himself. you’re sat inbetween vic and pat, “morning” you say letting out a yawn, “morning y/n” belch says, looking at you through the rear view mirror with a smile.
“are we fucking going or what?” henry says snippy, belch glances at him and nods, putting the gear in to drive and pulling out onto the road driving you to school. you lean your head on patrick’s shoulder and close your eyes. patrick looks down at you and smiles ever so slightly. his little bunny, he wonders if you might be real. probably not, but you’ll be a lot of fun to play with.
there’s this really old tumblr post about someone talking about solipsism with their friend and they said to their friend, “if everything around me is all my imagination, then you’re the best thing i’ve come up with” and in a version where patrick isn’t a psycho killer fafafa that would be a really cute thing for him to say

there's always a thousand ideas rattling around in my brain, and my notes app is getting filled with one line prompts for mostly art ideas but could also turn into mini fics
I'm still hung up on boxer mammon and I think. I will pick up my sketchbook today after going grocery shopping. Drawing faces is what's holding me back, and the idea that I wouldn't do the characters justice is what holds me back from writing (have not written since my wattpad days). The closet thing I have is dialogue blurbs in my notes app.
mammon is always on the brain SORRY. but like, thinking about merchant/jeweler mammon and a royal mc. And Mammon has ridiculous prices or excuses for why he can't sell (thinking about aziraphele from good omens and his book shop) but mc visits his stall every day (possibly in disguise?? or with a guard), and one day manages to trade a royal jewel for something in his collection (i am such a sucker for royalty in general and knights and AAA)
or thinking about Solomon and mc making potions together for the first time, and Solomon encouraging random things to be added just to see the end result (my mc is naturally curious and shares a single braincell when paired with solomon)
OR mc their first year in the devildom and possibly going to barbatos for advice on ingredients to use, what's human safe, and easy dishes to experiment on so they don't poison themselves. which makes me wonder how much human stuff is readily available and if mc can go grocery shopping in the human world with barbatos (domestic activities), or if they had to send him with a list (like when there was a retreat at the demon lords castle and everyone got to make dishes from their home)
sorry for getting carried away, this was the longest ask ever akdjdj, was just hoping to share some ideas and maybe some things that could bring back the creative spark AAA SORRY BYE LOVE YOU AND YOUR BLOG đŸ€ŁđŸ«¶
- ✹ anon
Please do not worry about ask length, ✹ anon! My responses tend to be lengthy too lol! So don't apologize because I love it!!
Augh, I totally get what you mean about the ideas... I am plagued by them all the time lol. It's finding the time to actually use them for anything that's usually the issue.
I hope you did do some drawing in your sketchbook! I can't speak to difficulties with art, but when it comes to writing, you can't let yourself worry about doing the characters justice.
I used to care a lot about how I characterized everybody. I was always so nervous about writing for Mammon in particular that I just didn't a lot of the time. But the truth is, every writer will characterize them differently. And your interpretation of them is just as valid as anyone else's! If it's less about that and more than you're concerned about your skill level, well, unfortunately there's no way around it. You gotta write to get better at writing! You can always start with characters you're not as concerned about if you want, but I find it's usually best to follow the inspiration! I believe in you!
Also don't worry, I love Mammon, so I don't mind hearing about him lol! And OKAY I looove Good Omens! I read the book a long time ago and then re-read it several times before the show came out. And then the fandom exploded!! But it's been amazing. Er anyway, getting off topic here, which is that I love the idea of jeweler/merchant Mammon who can't bear to part with his merchandise alksdfjf- I also love knights, I have a whole medieval AU brewing in my brain meats that I would write if I had any kind of time. Royal!MC showing up like I bet I have something you can't resist... I'll get you to trade me something from your wares!! I also like the idea of MC trading a kiss for something of his and he agrees because he's surprised to find that he's willing to give up his expensive object for a chance to kiss MC tee hee~
Solomon being a menace is something I'm always up for! I like the idea that he would encourage MC to do that, but also knows enough about the ingredients himself to know that the things he's suggesting aren't dangerous. Like he doesn't know what adding this herb will do, but he does know that it won't explode in MC's face lol. Though I also like the idea of Solomon and MC just being chaotic potion gremlins and adding anything and everything just to see what would happen. Like when MC is powerful enough and Solomon feels confident that MC won't get hurt, then they're both going all in.
I kinda think ingredients from other worlds are not readily available, since it seems like Simeon and Luke kinda go through this thing where they're trying to learn to cook with Devildom ingredients. Which means that Barbatos likely has a way of procuring those ingredients when he needs them. I absolutely love the idea of going human world shopping with Barb. I'm just gonna put that in my own personal headcanon. Whenever MC says in the game that they're gonna cook some human world food or at the retreat and everything, that also means a shopping trip with Barbatos. I wish I understood why I would want to do that so bad, but I really do. Imagine taking him to a human world grocery store. Like if he said to me that I should take him wherever I normally go, it's like okay lemme take you to Aldi and Walmart lol. But then I'd be like listen, if we can go anywhere though, we should really go to Costco and Trader Joe's. I never go to Costco because I don't have a membership. Because I am shopping only for myself and I don't need fifty pounds of anything lol. And there is no Trader Joe's in my town, the nearest one is over an hour away.
ANYWAY I love all your ideas!! I hope you find the motivation and confidence to pick up drawing and/or writing again! I have no doubt that whatever you create will be amazing!

This took longer than I thought it would. This is a list of all the Pokemon I've used throughout my entire Insurgence run. I tried to prioritize new forms over older Pokemon, but jesus this might just be the most I've rotated over a single game. Minus Mew- but he's our buddy so I feel like he has to be included.
Sort of a mini review under the cut- I enjoyed it, but I do feel like there's places where improvements could be made.
Insurgence feels like a classic "try-hard" edgy fan game, but in reality it hasn't been out for too long, at least since XY and ORAS though. Its a bit "3 Edgy 5 me" with all the cults and stuff, but I respect it for a very passion filled story, maps to explore (including mode7 for a soaring map, WOW, that's very cool), character customization, but probably my main draw was the Delta Pokemon- which were regional variants BEFORE regional variants came out, and are basically mutated or experimented Pokemon. Lots of creativity goes into each and every design, and the fakemon quality is immense. The designs are edgy, but I LOVE edgy designs.
The gameplay is very hard, even on easy mode, and you'll probably be doing a LOT of grinding- but its kind of rewarding when you either figure out a good strategy to beat an opponent or go through an anime training arc in a secret base with a guy with a bunch of masochistic Audino to gain some serious levels and steam roll the team that gave you trouble before.
The game has some neat options, including a difficulty level setting (mind you, again, easy is still hard but closer to a traditional Pokemon game for the most part. I played Normal until the Elite 4), and surprisingly an option to keep the story dark or to cut it back a tad. There's also character customization if you're into that- personally i liked most of the beginning options best, so I just kept my guy as is.
I have a few gripes- mainly that Delta Pokemon are so few and far between in comparison to the older Pokemon, or there's a bunch that are only available AFTER you've beaten the main game. Unlike variants, Deltas are usually one encounter captures- which don't get me wrong, most of the encounters all have some pretty great stories attached, but I would have enjoyed being able to build a team with more variety earlier on.
Still, what's here is great- In particularly I LOVE my Mega Delta Charizard and my Mega Delta Typhlosion- MDTy in particular feels like it gets a mega on top of its mega due to a form change it gets in darkness or rain. I also love all of the story rich post game content and new areas to explore, and being able to fight certain characters as well.
I know Azurite has kinda gone... Ghost? I guess? But apparently it's going to be a mostly fakemon focused followup made by a similar team. I wanna play it!
Overall a 7/10 experience.
Now... For the "Cool Club" Army- or the team.
No blurb about each team member because that'd take forever, but I'll go down in order of Hall of Fame, new species, then older ones
HOF- All Deltas
Mega Charizard/Ghoulzard, Ghost/Dragon
Mega Typhlosion/Sparky, Electric/Steel
Scizor/Sickle, Ice/Fighting
Crustle/Cake c:, Fairy/Normal
Haxorus/Anchor, Water/Steel
Metagross/Aureliag, Bug/Ground
Other important Members, all Deltas
Quagsire/Jacky, Grass/Fire
Muk/Crusty, Ground (Horsea minion form)
Hydreigon/N*Sync, Ground/Poison
Gallade/Electra, Electric/Ice
Ambipom/Tricky, Ghost/Normal
Non Deltas, in no particular order
Mew/MewMew
Lucario/Kyago
Feraligatr/Dundee
Typhlosion/Tindr
Butterfree/CantBelieve
Golem/Geoffany
Persian/Pen
Shiny Hydreigon/Da'Bee'Uls (pronounced "The Beetles" in a stereotypical Bri'ish accent)
Electivire/Thundervolt
Nidoking/Buddy
Anyways, I edited my sprite using official sprites to sort of match the MC (hence the purple hair).
The rest were pulled directly from the game files. Massive kudos to each and every artist involved in the fakemon production. I'd love to see these fakemon in a future project so I can use them some more.

Considering for upcoming year:
doing Valentine’s Day specials, just little blurbs like the ones for Christmas.
pride special. Most of my OCs and canon characters and MCs have LGBTQ+ coding
doing Halloween specials (I actually have ideas that I meant to use last year but college applications whipped my ass so that went out the window)
Coming this year (no idea in what order):
finishing Adolescent Antichrist Book 2. And then, admittedly, taking a long hiatus from it because I’ve fallen slightly out of the fandom, and I need to recharge since my writing is suffering due to it
logos and pathos book 2 (currently working on)
a study of the heart and brain book 2
a portal to my heart book 3
Mini special content I’d be willing to do if people are interested:
Creating playlists/aesthetics for my MCs and OCs
“interview with the MCs” where they’d all be together and getting interviewed like actors. I’ve always thought this would be cute, and if my readers had fun questions, as random as possible, for the MCs, they could answer them (I’d use the names I call the MCs in my head, the ones posted on my character spreadsheet)

Quarterly Debut Review: Q2 2024
Quarterly Debut Reviews are a supplementary series to my biannual Periodic Rookie Group Reports, which are published quarterly. Each installment covers three rookie groups that debuted over the past three months. For the sixth installment, I covered Triple iz (April), TOZ (May), and Crystal (Future Idol Asia) (June).
Tumblr media
April / Triple iz Debut: April 8, 2024 Debut Song: “Halla”
Call me Lettuce90. That is what ifland, SK Telecom’s social metaverse application, dubbed my avatar, a guy sporting a gray overcoat and gray pants with a gray beard and gray undercut. Although I could have changed both, as avatar customization is billed as a “feature, I did neither. I had not downloaded the app to talk to other users’ avatars or decorate the customizable 3d virtual space which in the parlance of the app is called a “room” or participate in k-pop karaoke or any of the other activities, but in the name of research. I wanted to get to know the self-described multinational metaverse girl group Triple iz and considering that they had been formed to promote the app, this seemed like a good place to start.
That I had to download the app to get to know the group is by design. Triple Iz’s whole raison d’etre is to attract new users through incentives and promotions tied to ifland. As of now, this has meant a pre-debut reality show Road to Debut, which although promoted on their official YouTube and Instagram, was only available on the app.[1] The same goes for their debut XR showcase, Global Fan Live show, and weekly news show “Weekly Izland News”, which takes place every Thursday in their official room.
I dropped into one of these weekly shows on a Thursday in early May, my avatar materializing on a bench on a peachy pink island, floating in a purple and pink sky dotted with puffy clouds, the planet Saturn, and rainbow tracks. Navigating around oversized candy pieces, scaled-down windmills, and banners with the group’s images, I joined the dozen other attendees including two whose outfits identified themselves as staff from the English language news site kpopmap (their website describes them as Triple iz’s Official Media Partner).[2][3] We stood in front of a large screen where the two MCs, RaRa and Serri, who wore tops that said ‘Triple iz,’ used to host the show. As their voices were piped in, the screen changed in tandem with the segments, including a quiz. Attendees could answer questions through the chat function, their answers appearing over their avatars’ heads, who are otherwise stationary.
In Kpopmap’s words, the show was supposed to be a “hangout sesh” but felt more like an awkward school assembly, lasting around a half hour. After that, the crowd thinned out as people moved to other “rooms” or onto other activities, like using their avatar to cover the choreography of the group’s song, or like me, logged off. I never went to another of their Weekly Shows and not long ago I deleted the app off my phone. While Triple Iz may have convinced me to try out the app, no virtual fan cafe, contest, or giveaway (all offered through the app) offered a compelling reason to stay.
Tumblr media
May / TOZ Debut: September 27, 2023 / May 2, 2024 Debut Song: “Magic Hour”/ “Nu Shoes”
Whether or not my choosing the boy group TOZ for my May blurb violates the spirit of this series hinges on one date – that of their debut. I considered their official debut to be September 27, 2023, when they simultaneously released their mini album Flare in Japan and Korea. My belief in this date is not entirely unwarranted. A Korea JoongAng Daily article published on September 7, 2023, titled “Boys Planet's four contestants to debut as TOZ with 'Flare'” explicitly describes the release as their debut,
The four-member band will make its debut under YY Entertainment on Sept. 27 with the album "Flare," a title "symbolizing the flare to mark the beginning of TOZ," according to the agency.
YY Entertainment would beg to differ. When teasing TOZ’s new mini album TO MY NEW FRIENDS, they announced that as their first Korean mini album, it would mark their Korean debut. This implies that their previous debut referred solely to their debut in Japan and that their debut date, according to their label, is May 4, 2024.[4]
In my ten-plus years of tracking Rookies, this is not the first time I have encountered the problem of determining a debut, but it has become more common in the last few years. Previously, a debut date corresponded to a group’s first release or initial music show appearance, usually in Korea, that no longer holds. Now, between extended pre-debut rollouts that can last months, previously debuted and independent groups “re-debuting” under labels, individual units of larger groups promoting independently, and international promotions a debut date is a moving target, one untethered from a group’s history.
In other words, entertainment agencies stretched the concept of the debut until it broke. Today, freed from any pretense of convention, if an agency chooses, a group could have multiple debuts like TOZ.  unlike TOZ, whose double debut is a strategic move. With the group’s initial introduction, less than four months after Haruto and Anthonny had joined the label, YY Entertainment tried to capitalize on the member’s association with Mnet’s Boy’s Planet, in which all four members had participated and concluded five months before their debut. Then, marketing their first Korean mini album as a “debut,” not a comeback, lends it the sheen of a traditional debut when the audience’s lack of familiarity with a group is not yet a detriment but an opportunity, a chance for a group to make themselves known.
Tumblr media
June / Crystal Debut: June 14, 2024 Debut Song: “Dreams Come True”
Rainbow E&M fell one group short of their ambitious goal to debut one new group a month for the first six months of the year. While they debuted at least one new group in January (Flora), February (Bluebell), and April and two groups in March (Heimish and Pearlys) and June (Ivory and Crystal), they did not debut a new group in May.
This gap in an otherwise prodigious six months could result from their focus being elsewhere, like their third annual showcase. Held on June 10th at the World K-Pop Center in Seoul, the showcase, as I have written before, is the fulcrum of the project, the point around which the endeavor is organized. Rainbow E&M recruits participants, organizes them into groups, and gives them a “debut” song and video so that they can perform them at their showcase.
Alternatively, or perhaps simultaneously, this gap may also indicate a problem I began to suspect last year when they debuted multiple groups of members from other previously debuted Future Idol Asia groups. That is the project has been struggling to recruit new participants, a problem not unique to them. An August 2023 Korea JoongAng Daily article reported that entertainment agencies are struggling to find trainees. Data backs up this finding. According to Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA)’s 2023 Pop Culture & Arts Industry Survey, the number of trainees working for agencies decreased between 2020 and 2022, going from 1,895 to 1,170.
This presents a catch-22 for Rainbow E&M. While such a shortage would make their service all the more indispensable to agencies, they would have to be able to find potential trainees, which would be difficult due to the shortage. Without participants for their project, the primary means of promoting their project, like debuting new groups and their showcase, also become more difficult, further exacerbating their recruitment challenge.
It makes sense then that Future Idol Asia has resorted to some creative accounting to pad their numbers. For example, at their recent showcase, most of the groups were not those they had debuted between their third and fourth showcase but “trainee” groups. Unlike the typical Future Idol Asia group, these groups perform not original songs but covers. Their introductions are rougher, and their performances are less polished. They are far from showcase-ready, but at the same time, they are necessary components for its success. Without them, the showcase would be noticeably shorter and smaller, signaling to the audience and potential recruits that the project is struggling. By including these groups though in a bid to reverse their struggle, they can at least create the illusion that the opposite is true.
Footnotes
[1] Post-debut, full episodes from the group's pre-debut reality show were uploaded to their official YouTube page.
[2] Not long after I attended “Weekly Izland News”, Kpopmap instituted a subscription model, hiding most of their articles behind a paywall. As a result, I cannot link to many of their articles on the group and ifland I used for research while writing this blurb.
[3] According to an article on Kpopmap (again, accessed pre-subscription change), members of Kpopmap’s staff join the show every week to “hang out with fans, take ideas and suggestions for future contents, ask for fans’ opinions, swoon over Triple iz, and more.”
[4] For my own purposes, TOZ will be considered a 2023 Rookie Group Debut. This will be reflected in the numbers for Rookie Reports No. 22 through No. 24.

Can I have a blurb about yandere rise!turtles with a diabetic, picky eater mc?
(totally not me!)
Ok first of all, I don't know practically anything about diabetes, so this is only based off of light research- so obviously there's a chance I mess things up.
Second, I'm going to assume it's type 1, considering type 1 is the autoimmune type and also is the one that is diagnosed at a very young age. It's also not caused by unhealthy diet and lifestyle.
This is the research that I've collected in a matter of brisking through a few webs:
- constant checking of blood sugar levels (and depending on that level, the food consumption/diet will be changed)
- taking insulin shots. Which there's 2 types, basal and bolus. Basal is the type you take everyday, regardless of what you eat. Meanwhile, bolus is a rapid-acting insulin that will regulate the carbohydrates within the body (in the pancreas specifically)
- Medications (kinda obv)
- Calculating carbohydrate intake and overall diet.
- Needing more sleep to regulate blood sugar levels easier
(this is the basics I've accumulated so yeah- I'm going off of this)
I'm just casually doing a mini research project for this aha-
Tw: restricting behaviour, Mikey is being creepy, vague religious themes
Raph is literally panicking like a lot. You know- man's just constantly asking if you need anything because he doesn't know what to expect at any given moment. (plus, he's pure anxiety). He chronically keeps snacks if you ever go out to anywhere.
Leo ensures you take your insulin and medications, all while saying some smug shit like- "Oh aren't I just the best for keeping you healthy?" Like stop it. No. You aren't the best. He's literally a hypocrite when he does this, but he forces you to sleep. Even though he doesn't sleep.
Donnie? He's terrifying. He's calculating every gram of your diet, making sure he focuses on the carbohydrate intake especially. He's very strict about everything, whether you like it or not. He knows what it's like to be a picky eater, so he tries everything to find foods you like while still getting your balanced intake.
I'm not going to lie, Mikey is kinda creepy about it. Like bro knows your blood sugar levels before you even knew. He actually blames the foods you don't like as unholy and doesn't dare touch them (unless if it's an ingredient he needs to make something you like). He keeps multiple journals of your daily insulin intake, there's no reason as to why. He's just obsessed.
(I'm sorry it's been 2 whole ass weeks since I've last written anything- but hey- at least my marching season will be over in a week...but still got Matilda to go through aha...)

Alrighty folks, so for this post I shall post the blurb first and the review second. If you would not like to read the emotional blurb, feel free to shuffle down to the review of less than stellar quality below.
No, not here. This is the blurb. I'm going to be honest; I made this account because my friend wanted to send me memes and I lost the password to my old one. Life has been kind of hellish lately, and I'm not doing well with this particular round of grief. I haven't been able to make myself read lately, or even get out of bed. Today however, I saw a post by the author of this book on Instagram and suddenly I was allowed to read but only this book (which is kicking my ass given that almost 50% of the books I own are TBR). But I read the book and once again felt that feeling of finishing a good book and just thinking, gods fucking dammit I wish I could experience this book for the first time again. Then again, I love that feeling of security of knowing there is a happy ending waiting for me when I'm at my lowest.
REVIEW TIME. Alright so to be honest I had no idea this was a Kylo/Rey fanfic the first time I read the book. In hindsight, yeah it makes sense and is so much funnier with that knowledge in mind without detracting from the characters. Common tropes seen in this book are fake-dating, teacher/student (but not in the usual way). age gap (without it being creepy), and along with all of the lovely mini tropes within. Unfortunately, whilst there was a sharing room bit there is (spoiler) no one bed bit. Cry about it. I genuinely enjoyed the pacing and lightheartedness of the novel, while still being able to incorporate important topics. It focuses on a grad student who is struggling to maintain her confidence in drive in a male dominated field (as STEM fields tend to be) while still absolutely taking ass and kicking names. Olive (the mc) is one of the most genuinely relatable and endearing character I've gotten to read a romcom through, and that's feeling I've had with all of what Ali Hazelwood has published so far. I honestly don't feel like finishing the rest of this review rn, but ik if I put it in drafts I will never post it, so feel free to ask questions I guess? Anyway. Read the book if you like romance without feeling like the mc is a total idiot outside of what it takes to get a plot rolling, and enjoy seeing a solid amount of representation in your books. Toodles for now~

The critique made will be most focused on the individual characters and their development as well as the book's importance to the story.
Arc One- Dragonet Prophecy
Book One- The Dragonet Prophecy
Overall well done, would’ve maybe had Clay actually end up killing someone either defending himself or defending his friends and having him have that guilt and better understanding of the true fact that even though he had killed, he wasn’t a killer. Clay needed a better plot arc as he’s exactly the same at the end of the whole series and that just won’t stand. He needs ANGST. Also remove the scrapped Glory x Clay foreshadowing at the start of the book. It bugs me.
6/10
Book Two- The Lost Heir
Perfect. But I would rather Whirlpool die more painfully. Eels are too merciful. Fuckin pedo. Though Tsunami loses all personality after this book so there’s an issue there.
10/10
Book Three- The Hidden Kingdom
Perfect, interesting society and well-developed culture. Glory x Deathbringer is problematic tho but maybe the Winglets just need to be edited. (There are errors in that book as well, in the blurb “Fierceteeth” was spelled as “Fiercetooth” as well as there being a name repeat.)
9/10 (cuz weird age gap is ickkkkkkk)
Book Four- The Dark Secret
No real issues here, I have less qualms with the first arc since it’s pretty well done. One thing is, I hate Fatespeaker. Kill her or at least make her leave Starflight alone, let mans be bi in peace.
7/10
Book Five- The Brightest Night
Loved the climax and the resolution. But godammit let Peril be the Wings of Fire, Tui, you bitch, let her have that. Thorn is lovely and Smolder is hella gay. Wish Sunny being a hybrid made more sense, why would a sandy yellow tribe and a black starry tribe make a golden mini dragon. Makes no sense, at least give her freckled silver hidden in her scales. Also Sunny and Fatespeaker would’ve made an awesome ship. Wasted opportunity.
8/10
Arc Two- Jade Mountain Prophecy
Book Six- Moon Rising
Excellent choice making Moon the MC since she gave us unique insight and it really helped with world building. Darkstalker is a groomer and pedo so there's that. Nothing much to say here but Moon does lose all personality after this book.
7/10
Book Seven- Winter Turning
Abusive toxic man. Racist is his whole personality and after this book everyone just forgets he’s a dickhead and pretends it never happened. Hailstorm angst was excellent though, well done and as an angst lover, a true delicacy. Hailstorm is a traumatized gay man and you cannot tell me otherwise. The only thing about Winter that changed is him being less misogynistic and less racist.
4/10 (purely cuz angst)
Book Eight- Escaping Peril
Perils' development was interesting and her overcoming her conditioning to be loyal was wonderful to watch as well as her just being overall my favorite character by far <3.
8/10
Book Nine- Talons of Power
Tbh I forget about this one a lot, it’s mostly Anemone being an ass and Turtle being a chicken. Family drama galore.
5/10
Book Ten- The Darkness of Dragons
OH BOY THE MIXED FEELINGS. Darkstalker pedo confirmed, he turned Fierceteeth into his dead ex and tried to commit genocide. Moon being so insistent that she could fix Darkstalker and how much she believed in him, and how he deserved a second chance definitely was weird and I know she was under a spell but like, WHAT. The ending felt weird cuz Tui seemed to be making it up as she went, she had written herself into a corner since Darkstalker was immortal, untouchable, and immune to all other magic. But the talk he had with Quibli was very very interesting and I really wish that had been explored more. The Quibli corruption arc would’ve saved this series for me but Tui AIN’T GOT THE BALLS FOR THAT. It was a very long book for the series and a lot happened but not a lot at the same time. Like I said, mixed feelings.
?/10
Arc Three- The Lost Continent Prophecy
Book Eleven- The Lost Continent
Loved it. The class system, the world building, the bug facts within it and the link to the first continent, so well done. Blue is a little boring though, bland and utterly harmless, reminiscent of Clay, but more boring. The world building was what saved it.
9/10 (would’ve been 10/10 but Blue done and effed it up)
Book Twelve- The Hive Queen
Loved it, the continued development kept me engaged and the fashion part was PEAK. Cricket was a lovable nerd and a sweet person who could actually get shit done. The reveal of how the hive mind worked was creepy and so well done, I cannot say anything bad about this book.
10/10
Book Thirteen- The Poison Jungle
The best one so far. AGAIN with the BALLER world building and PEAK development, Sundew and Willow’s love story was amazing and I loved the cultural dynamic between the Sapwings and the Poisonwings. The carnivorous plants were interesting as all hell and the Leafwings were badass. Hawthorn was a twist villain done RIGHT and this is the book I’ve re-read the most BY FAR. This was the point when I was in peak obsession with the series, it was everything I’d ever wanted in a series and I thought it would continue to improve. My heart was promptly broken.
100000000/10
Book Fourteen- The Dangerous Gift AKA, the beginning of the end
The entire book was pointless. I can tell you everything that happened in one sentence. Lost Continent bros show up and Snowfall is racist, she follows them around and becomes less racist, she learns crown thing is cursed, she break it, yayyyyyyy, they go to Lost Continent. WHY THE HELL DID IT TAKE THREE-HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SIX PAGES TO GET THAT?????
1/10. Wasted my time.
Book Fifteen- The Flames of Hope AKA the big disappointment and the thing that made me lose interest in the series.
The angst around their friends being under the control of the Othermind was good, but not good enough to save this book. What I don’t get is why FIRE BREATHING DRAGONS couldn’t take on a few Hivewings. Jambu and Pineapple could go invisible and SPIT ACID and Quibli had a stinger, Moon could read minds and Tsunami was a seasoned fighter. WHY DID THEY FUCKIN LOSE???? The pace was so mind-numbingly slow and the entire book was just a giant lore-dump in the worst way possible. Luna was just vibing underground all alone for the majority of the book “face a great evil with talons united” MY ASS. The entire thing was resolved by making a centuries old dragonet feel bad for you. Where is our epic ending? Tui’s aversion to violent resolutions makes no sense, this book series ain’t for little kids, dragons die in violent ways all the time, Fjord, Whirlpool, Arctic, literally any Skywing prisoner, Morrowseer, Blister, Burn, Dune, Kestrel, Osprey, Queen Battlewinner, the list goes on. I feel like maybe a better solution could’ve been to finally give us a violent resolution. In past books, peaceful ones kind of worked, but this wasn’t that book. Once again, Tui had backed herself into another corner, making up a poorly done bullshit ending that was unsatisfying and rushed. This book makes me sad and mad. This killed Wings of Fire.
-99999999999999/10 (Would’ve taken away another 1 but Jambu x Pineapple being canon was cute)
Here’s a hot take: Wings of Fire Flames of Hope was dogshit.

Bestie that blurb was so cute đŸ„ș I can’t help but think about how sweet Mc and Harry would be when pip is sick and just gushing over her and cuddling her đŸ„șđŸ„șđŸ„ș
I love this!! We will delve into Pippa being sick in a few chapters but let’s get a sneak peek!
April 12, 2022.
Los Angeles, California. 3:15 AM
I was starting to fall back asleep when there was a whimper from the baby lying beside me. Before it could get any louder, I pulled her into my arms and started patting her back and looking for her pacifier that she had refused to take a few hours prior.
“I know baby, I’m sorry you feel sick huh?”, I turned to look at the time on my phone while I kissed the side of her head, “Are you hungry? Yeah? Let’s feed and then I’ll give you your medicine”, as soon as we got settled Pippa latched and started eating, which was a good sign, while I was running a hand down her back there was a soft knock on the door.
“Come in”, Harry popped in her head, “You girls doing okay? I miss you in bed”, he started walking to the loveseat and sat down on the floor, I smiled, “Hi H, yeah, she has been able to sleep; her fever has broken and with the humidifier her nose has cleared up”, he nodded while kissing the back of Pippa’s head.
He then stood up and added more water to the humidifier, threw away the dirty diapers and brought me new ones and ran downstairs to replace my water bottle, as soon as he returned Pippa stopped feeding and he made grabby hands for her, so I handed him the baby and he started burping her, “Oh my poor sick baby, I’m sorry mini me”
Once she burped, I grabbed her medicine from the nightstand and made my way to where they were standing, while Harry held her I started giving it to her, with a lot of resistance, once we gave her the dose she started crying, so Harry started swaying and shushing her, “I’m sorry baby, I know it was awful but it will help you”
I took the opportunity to go to the restroom and once I came out, he had just settled Pippa on the bed, he shushed once again before pulling back and coming to hug me and kiss my forehead, “Wanna switch?”, I shook my head, “You have rehearsals tomorrow, which means you should go to bed”
He whined and nodded, “Well then, let me tuck you in”, he followed me to the bed and got me settled not before pulling kissing my lips multiple times, “I love you baby, i0ll see you tomorrow”, I smiled, “I love you too H, sleep well”
