[nostalgiclittlespace]

hi marty!!! if your requests are open, can you do william afton caregiver headcanons with tons of fluff please 🥺💗 he's my fictional caregiver and i love him so much... he means the world to me....

thank you so much!!! :D

Of course!!! I headcanon Springtrap as one of my fictional CGs so I got you ;). Here’s some for Peepaw Willy! ⬇️

(Tried to leave this open for Movie! or Game! Afton)

Of course he is called Peepaw Willy when you’re Little. XD. Other CG names for him would probably include dada, papa, and bunny

He on the other hand calls you sweetheart, love, darling, and dear (he’s very British 😄)

He loves reading to you while sitting in a rocking chair.

Speaks so softly and gently 🥰

If he has to work, then he’ll bring you along! He give you lots of tokens to play the arcade games, coupons for snacks, etc.

But if you’re feeling clingy, then he’ll let you sit in his office with him.

Speaking of the office, he keeps tons of your gear in there. Pacis, toys, coloring books, snacks—the works

Lets you sit on his lap while he works

(He’ll even pet your hair or rub your hands with his thumb if he’s deep in thought)

If he needs inspiration or opinions for designs, then he’ll ask you! You now what’s appealing to kids and will make sure nothing is too scary looking.

Lots of your artwork ends up in his study or around the restaurant.

Would probably show his affection through gifts. Any gear/toy you want, he’s going to get it for you!

You of course have plushies of every animatronic. They’re your friends!

He definitely does different voices for the characters during playtime or stories. He has lot of practice from working kid’s birthday parties in the Spring Bonnie suit

William says he “isn’t as young as you used to be” but if you ask him sweetly (or whine enough) he’ll play tag with you, piggyback you around, etc

One of William’s favorite games is hide and seek.

You guys have lots of tea parties too

For your sake, he would let you dress him up, put glitter and stickers on him, etc

He tucks you in every night you’re regressed. Makes sure you’re all snuggly, checks your closet and under the bed for monsters, and kisses your forehead.

He’s a very calm caregiver. He’s experienced with working around kids of all ages and personalities from Freddy’s and his own kids, so he knows what he’s doing.

Doesnt panic during meltdowns or tantrums. He lets you cry it out if you need, and waits until you’re ready to be touched before giving you a very big hug

If you’re just having a bad day in general, he’ll make sure to do something special for you. Baking a treat, playing a game, etc

If you struggle with crowds or overstimulation, then he’ll bring you to Freddy’s after hours to play. (Pre missing childrens incident)

He doesn’t do that too often though, because he wants to be sure that you get a good nights sleep too!

Movie! William would have Vanessa as your babysitter. And she’s such a sweet big sister!

Game! William on the other hand…he wouldn’t let Michael watch you in a million years. Even pre-bite of 83 he was fairly irresponsible. Henry is a far-better suited babysitter

That being said, you’d get along with the Afton children well. You’d see them around the household, at Freddy’s, etc

(Being a Caregiver has definitely been good for Will; he’s starting to remember how to be a better father too)

Thanks so much for the ask! I hope these are good! 💜💜💜

Becoming an angel of the Father (Daddy!Simeon)

Tw: forced infantilism, religious themes

Words:1.500

When Simmy came to wake you up this morning, you had seen the strange twinkle in his eye and how he looked more affectionate than usual, giving even more kisses to your tummy and cheeks as he changed you out of your dirty diaper and removed your footies. It was only after you drank your bottle of milk on his lap, skin-to-skin as usual, that you noticed the first strange thing: instead of taking you back to your nursery to dress up in one of your onesies for the day, the angel decided to take you a bath. And what's more, a quick one, with not bubbles nor toys. "I know little lamb, I know." he cooed at your confused look as he lowered you into the warm water "But we all need to be clean for today, it's your special day." Special day? You tried to keep track of your time here, the water gently flowing through your hair. Maybe your birthday? You weren't sure how long it had been since you were brought here, but somehow it didn't feel right. Opening your eyes - hey, when did you close them? The angel was too good at rubbing your head - you glanced at the bathroom window. There were no seasons in the Celestial Realm, just the sun that was always shining, so you couldn't even tell what month it was. Maybe it was Simmy's birthday? Michael's? Was there some kind of feast? No no, just a second. He didn't say today was a special day, but your special day. "Are you trying to watch the birds, little one?" You winced as the angel's voice distracted you from your thoughts. The sponge was now passing over your back, and even without the massage you received with every bath, you found yourself relaxing again. Simmy continued to wash you gently but quickly, occasionally planting loving kisses on your cheek. You wasn’t really happy when he picked you up to get you out of the tub but he just shushing you. And after he laid you on the changing table and put you on a new diaper, he did another unusual thing. He dressed you with a strangr tunic that reached just above your knees. It was light blue, with a white lace collar. No buttons, no decorations. It was relatively simple, you knew that in your closet you had more elegant or at least cuter clothes that you could wear for a "special day". But this? "It looks like you don't like it that much, hmm? Don't worry sweetheart, we'll get you a prettier one later. This one is just more pratical" The angel had noticed your confusion, after all you weren't used to wearing those kind of things! He secured your paci with a clip and, with a last kiss on the forehead, he carried you back to the living room, laying you on the pram. Even if the mat was comfortable, you couldn't feel at your ease anymore. For some reason, you had a bad feeling.

And the bad feeling was justified.

Simeon held you in his arms, rubbing your back as he tried to make you relax. He could imagine why you seemed so shy: his little lamb was not used to being around so many people, with all the other angels looking adoringly at you, pleased with how this pure souled little human officially became a member of Celestial Realm. No more big bad demons, no more corrupted humans, just happiness and lots, lots of love from everyone!

He adjusted his grip on you, as the other angels stepped back to allow Michael to get closer to you two.

You had no doubts why he was considered the strongest archangel, the aura he emanated was so powerful that you could feel it even if you turned your back on him. A small whine of fear left your lips as you sucked on your paci harder, snuggling even deeper into your caregiver's arms. It was all too overwhelming. The change in your routine, too many people around you, focused on you, you didn't understand what was going on. You didn't really pay attention as the two angels spoke, too scared to listen, until Simmy passed you into Michael's arms.

“Ooh, I expected them to fight more, but they seems to be quite comfortable with you,” the archangel said with an amused look, noticing how your arms tensed trying to reach your caregiver.

"I wouldn't have proposed baptizing them if they still tried to escape." Simeon's face was relaxed, you were seeking his comfort, confirming that the days of pushing him away were almost over. The archangel settled you better in his muscular arms, commenting how you were small compared to him, before moving towards a free bank of the spring. No longer able to hide your face, you could see for the first time exactly where you were. The lake wasn't very large and it didn't even seem deep, maybe more towards the center, but on the shore you could see the bottom of colored pebbles, the water so clear. The small waterfalls on the opposite bank produced a light, almost calming downpour. Only the cheerful chatter of the other angels ruined the otherwise silent atmosphere of that place. After passing through the neatly trimmed grass, Michael reached a  gravel patch and addressed the crowd. Silence immediately fell as he began, in a solemn voice, to speak.

"In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti, introibo ad altare Dei. Ad Deum, qui laetificat iuventutem meam. Adiutorium nostrum in nomine Domini, qui fecit caelum et terram. Amen." 

You didn't have the slightest idea what he had just said, however you didn't have time to think about it because, with the help of another angel, he pulled the tunic off your head, leaving you with only the diaper. You didn't really agree with that, especially when he removed your paci, your only comfort. You whimpered as the air blew over your bare skin, it wasn't cold but it wasn't completely pleasant either. Someone cooed, someone giggled, the sight of the little human wriggling and whimper was too adorable. But the archangel remained unmoved as he handled you to take in bridal carry, approaching and walking into the spring. He headed towards the center, stopping once the water reached his sides, starting again to speak:

2. "Pater, in manus tuas commendo spiritum suum, et nunc, baptizare et ablue peccata suum"

In the meantime you looked at him with a little fear. You were too exposed and vulnerable to him, you didn't know how he was going to baptize you. But come to think of it, he probably would have poured the water on your head. Simmy has always been concerned that you might drown in the tub during bathtime, so consequently you wouldn't be thrown in the middle of the pond without arm floaties or other precautions.

You were wrong

As soon as he finished his praise, he knelt and lowered you until your body was floating in the water, one hand above your lower ribs, the other under your back but not touching it.

3. "Per Baptismum remittuntur omnia peccata originalia"

There was only a brief exchange of glances between you two.

And then, he pushed you completely under the water.

If Simeon was ecstatic about this ceremony, you on the other hand were frightened by it. You could feel the water enveloping your body, in your mouth, opened in surprise, in your eyes that were burning. You couldn't move, the hand now supporting your back making sure you didn't go too deep, the other on your chest, not letting you surfacing.

Just when you really thought you were going to die, Michael pulled you back out, leaving you no chance to cough or do anything else. Because, with an "et omnia peccata personalia", he sent you back down again.

It wasn't until the third dive, which was followed by an "et omnes poenae sins" that the archangel took you in his arms, patting your back as you coughed and spat out all the water you'd swallowed. You were shivering, from cold, from fear, from a persistent cough, for whatever reason. You were crying, being afraid of anything else they could do to you. You didn't even realize when Michael got out of the water, what he said afterwards, you didn't even realize when he brought you back into Simmy's arms or when they dressed you in another long, white and lace tunic, which all new angels wore after they were baptized. The paci they returned didn't help either, but nobody was worried. They would let you vent as much as you wanted. Your crying was a small price they would accept to make you an angel of the Father.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope you liked it! This are the translation of the latin phrases

1: “In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti, introibo ad altare Dei. Ad Deum, qui laetificat iuventutem meam. Adiutorium nostrum in nomine Domini, qui fecit caelum et terram. Amen” = In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. I will enter the altar of God. To God who makes my youth happy. Our Holy Helper is in the name of the Lord. Who made heaven and earth. Amen.

This was one of the used initial formula to begin a latin mass

2: “ Pater, in manus tuas commendo spiritum suum“ Lc, 23:46 “et nunc, baptizare et ablue peccata suum “ Acts of Apostles 22:16. = Father, I commend their spirit into your hands, and now I baptize them and wash away their sins.

3. “per Baptismum remittuntur omnia peccata originalia et omnia peccata personalia et omnes poenae peccati” = by Baptism all original sins and all personal sins and all penal sins are forgiven.

I found this on the online vatican archivie and it’s an explanation about the remission of sins through baptism.

Nye review — Michael Sheen burns with passion in NHS origin story

He carries the play in the end. Three years ago, when the Olivier was in socially distanced mode, Michael Sheen delivered an unforgettably intense performance in a version of Under Milk Wood that cut a bold new path through Dylan Thomas’s verse.

His portrayal of another visionary Welshman, Aneurin Bevan, doesn’t quite reach the same heights, but it’s still more than enough to draw us into a docu-drama by Tim Price that has a habit of skating over historical detail.

More than 60 years have passed since Bevan died from cancer, so it’s possible that younger members of the audience may know next to nothing about the honourable member for Ebbw Vale, the left-wing orator who oversaw the creation of the National Health Service.

This co-production with the Wales Millennium Centre has some of the primary-colour paciness of Dear England, that hit show about football manager Gareth Southgate. Sometimes it’s less a play and more a pageant, albeit one that’s vividly directed by the National’s outgoing boss, Rufus Norris. But where we might be content not to learn much about Southgate’s inner life, Price’s script rattles through so many episodes that, after the end of more than two and a half hours, you are left wondering how much you really learn about Bevan’s personality and beliefs.

It’s startling, too, to see his soulmate and fellow MP, Jennie Lee, given so little attention. Sharon Small is terrific in the role; it’s a shame we don’t see more of her.

Price, author of Protest Song and The Radicalisation of Bradley Manning, presents us with Bevan at the end of his life, dressed in pyjamas as he lies in a hospital bed. A series of hallucinatory flashbacks revisits his childhood struggle with a stammer as well as the premature death of his coalminer father.

There’s even a Singing Detective-style musical sequence where, still in his pyjamas, Sheen leads the cast through the swing-era standard Get Happy. (The composer Will Stuart’s score strikes a cheesy, multiplex note elsewhere.) The green curtains of Vicki Mortimer’s hospital ward set cleverly evoke the green benches of the Commons, as Bevan savages Tory politicians who are so villainous they probably lunch on babies.

Tony Jayawardena gives us a memorably silky Churchill (“You are a petulant child,” he observes as Bevan launches another attack on his wartime leadership) while Stephanie Jacob has fun portraying an owlish Clement Attlee whose desk motors around the stage like Dr Strangelove’s wheelchair.

The masked faces of physicians, who try to block the creation of the NHS, loom overhead on Jon Driscoll’s projections. Throughout it all, Sheen burns with genuine passion. His charisma fills the gaps in the script.

JUNO Ludovisi: "This head, known in the past as Hera or Juno, was once part of a colossal statue, three times normal size. The female portrait head, crowned with a diadem, a symbol of royalty and sanctity on the model of the Hera of Ephesus, was reproduced in 16th century paintings and in the following century was regarded as one of the most beautiful sculptures in the Ludovisi Collection.. ..Most critical studies have identified this head as the young and idealized portrait of Antonia Minor, the emperor Claudius's mother, deified after her death in 37 AD. The most relevant iconographic comparison is the portrayal of Antonia on the Ara Pacis. Other theorists identify the sculpture as Livia, wife of the emperor Augustus." [txt ©MNR Palazzo Altemps]

You should do an agereg where little luke has to be baby sat by the other guys and misses caregiver

Babysitting

<33 i loved writing this

word count : 826

warnings : none

enjoy!

Being a caregiver and spending time with your little one was arguably one of your favorite things in the world, and if you could spend your entire life doing it day and night, you would.

But sometimes, it wasn’t possible. You did have to work, and every now and then your schedule lined up horribly with Luke being regressed. So, when this happened, you had to call up one, or multiple, of the other guys in the band to babysit him for a few hours or a day while you work, so that he didn’t have to pull himself out of headspace, and you didn’t have to call out of work. 

Today was one of those unfortunate days where Luke woke up tiny, and you had an early shift. Luckily, you were able to quickly call Michael to see if he was available. He couldn’t come over to watch him, but he and Crystal immediately offered to have Luke come spend the day at their house. You agreed, quickly packing up most of Luke’s toys, his pacifiers, bottles, onesies, and more, while he ate his cereal, and making a mess of it all over his face. You couldn’t help but laugh, helping him clean up before asking him to grab his shoes. 

“You’re gonna go spend some time with Mike and Crys today while I’m at work, okay, angel?” 

The happy little giggle that left Luke’s mouth was a sound you wished you could’ve recorded and played on loop. You loved him so much, and him being happy with the situation of the day took a lot of stress off your shoulders. 

About thirty minutes later, you had dropped off Luke with Michael and Crystal, him running into the house and nearly knocking Crystal over. He had barely noticed you giving him a hug and kiss when you were leaving, too busy playing with toys the couple had kept for him. Normally, you would be offended, but now, you were so happy that he was okay and ready for the day.

—

You were four hours into a six hour shift, and were wishing you could go home. The day hadn’t been difficult, especially due to the help with babysitting Luke, but you were still tired, and missed your baby. And it turned out, he missed you just as much, because about four minutes later, your phone rang with a FaceTime call. You excused yourself for a short walk around the building, quickly answering the call, only to see a worried Michael with a sobbing Luke. 

“Oh, sweetheart. What’s wrong?” 

Luke only continued to cry, shaking his head. Michael shrugged. 

“We don’t know. He all of a sudden burst into tears, and this has been going on for about thirty minutes. He won’t eat a snack, he doesn’t wanna play, he’s just crying. We figured he might open up to you a bit more.” 

Your face was soft, giving Luke a sad look. 

“What is it, little angel? Did something happen?” 

He just shook his head again, pointing at you through the camera. 

Okay, so he’s non-verbal.

“Me, baby? Do you miss me, bubba?” 

He frantically nodded, bursting into a fresh wave of sobs, hugging tight to Michael. Michael wrapped his arms around him, gently rocking him while he rustled his hair. Luke slipped his thumb into his mouth, and gently began suckling on it. 

“Baby boy, can you go get your paci and your bottle?”

Luke nodded, running out of frame to get his items. You spoke to Michael while Luke was gone into the other room.

“Get him a bottle, and try to get him down for a nap. He’ll argue about sleeping, gently reassure him that I’ll be home when he wakes up. He should sleep for about an hour and a half, maybe more.” 

Continuing your instructions, Luke wanders back in, baby blue paci pressed into his mouth as he rubs his eyes sleepily. He pushes his bottle into Michael, “Bubba”’s hand, making grabby hands for the phone. After it was handed to him, he pressed his lips onto the camera, giving you a “kiss”.

“Awww, somebody’s tired, aren’t they, bub?” 

A soft nod from Luke, and Michael easily wrapped his arms around him and pressed a kiss to the top of his head. 

“C’mon, buddy. Let’s say bye bye to Mommy, and we’ll see her after your nap!” 

Luke gave a half wave, yawning as Michael hung up with a promise that Luke would be just fine. And he was. When you got back to their house soon after work, Luke was curled up with Crystal, still fast asleep but woke up as soon as Mommy rubbed his back and kissed his forehead. He was immediately scrambling into your arms as soon as he realized who was holding him. Thanking Michael and Crystal for watching him, you two headed home and he spent the rest of his evening in your arms.

Year of Lists

May Books

Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell *4.7/5 - the craft is just awesome. I had favourite sections and I had favourite people (shoutout to Sonmi, Sixsmith and Robert Frobisher). The tingling anticipation when I realised the sections would run backwards back to the start - yum. The threads connecting the stories through time; the mix of genres - ugh, so good.

Normal People by Sally Rooney *5/5 - I stayed away from this one during its peak, opting to read Conversations with Friends instead, which I loved. I still carry a lot of it with me, and for subject matter, I would probably pick it over this one; except that this is a perfect book. It does what it sets out to do so, so well.

It is one of the secrets in that change of mental poise which has been fitly named conversion, that to many among us neither heaven nor earth has any revelation till some personality touches theirs with a peculiar influence, subduing them into receptiveness. - George Eliot, Daniel Deronda (opening inscription to the book)

This is about those relationships that change you, connect you to another person in an immovable way, and mark you for life. I love the unapologetic awkwardness, the leaning into the, often, devastating turn of events, that is so true to life.

Happiness Falls by Angie Kim *3/5 (ebook) - went into this for a taste of mystery. It's mostly okay, a quick read, was thinking about Eugene for days after. There are ups and downs, some enjoyable, pacy bits but it left me unchanged, and worse, nonplussed.

Day by Michael Cunningham *3.2/5 - I've read some of Cunningham's work - The Hours, Flesh and Blood - both of which were five star reads. I didn't think this was a masterpiece, it read more like a writing challenge, as if Cunningham is still experimenting with Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway, churning theme and structure to differing results. The characterisation is a great strength, giving life to an otherwise unremarkable book. What is undeniable is the writing talent. I wouldn't mind reading any of his work, ever. Bonus points for finishing this in a Day. sorrynotsorry

A priest with a gun sets the scene in TV’s newest ‘whydunit’

Jay Ryan, Luke Arnold and Bella Heathcote star in Scrublands. Credit: Stan

The story starts with a bang. A priest in his white and purple robes strides out of a country-town church with a rifle – yes, a priest with a rifle – and starts shooting parishioners, leaving five of them dead. Father Byron Swift is then himself shot dead in self-defence by the local copper. Thus begins the saga of Scrublands, a new mini-series set in regional Australia – and obviously there’s no mystery about whodunit.

In fact, at first there’s no mystery about anything at all. The priest had recently been accused of paedophilia, and the official explanation is that he got himself killed rather than face up to the crime. But then, a year later, burnt-out Sydney Morning Herald journalist Martin Scarsden arrives in town to write a perfunctory story about how the town is faring 12 months on, and starts to smell a rat.

Based on former journalist Chris Hammer’s best-selling novel of the same name, Scrublands is a thriller set in a remote country town, Riversend, which has been battered by years of drought, fire and flood, is reeling from a terrible act of violence, and harbours a profound distrust of outsiders generally, and anyone in the media specifically.

Producer David Redman, whose credits include Charlie & Boots and Strange Bedfellows, says distilling the novel, a whydunit rather than a whodunit, into a four-part series is no mean feat. “It’s amazing how much story you can tell in four episodes,” he says. “It’s pacy. No one’s going to fall asleep in this one, particularly not after the opening scene. It’s such an iconic and unusual way to start, as far as making sure you have an engaged, attentive audience.”

Writer Felicity Packard (Underbelly, Janet King) agrees. “The opening scene is pretty much what takes place in the novel. That’s a really powerful way to start. You’re not hiding your light under a bushel, it’s right up there in episode one, scene one.”

Director Greg McLean has form when it comes to filming Australian crime drama. His CV includes the legendary outback horror flick Wolf Creek. Packard enthuses about his vision. “He has such a strong idea of what he’s doing. He’s already got the edit in his head, so he know what he’s shooting for. He doesn’t just shoot the shit out of things, he knows what he wants.”

The story revolves around two men, the charismatic and dedicated but mysterious priest Byron, played by Jay Ryan (The Creamerie, Jane Campion’s Top of the Lake) and the jaded, frustrated journalist Martin, played by Luke Arnold (Michael Hutchence in INXS biopic Never Tear Us Apart). Linking the two is Mandy Bond, played by Bella Heathcote (The Man in the High Castle, Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows), the beguiling owner of the local bookstore-cafe who has a few secrets of her own.

It was McLean who introduced Heathcote to the project. “I’d worked with him on Bloom [with Bryan Brown and Jacki Weaver] a couple of years ago and he and I were going to do another project together and that didn’t happen sadly, and he said, ‘I’ve got this other great project.’ He sent me the first two episodes, and I was hooked, I wanted to know what happened next.”

Heathcote’s character, who had studied at uni in Melbourne before returning to look after her dying mother, fascinated the actor. “Mandy just seems so tough and cool. No bullshit, the way she carries herself through life, the way she interacts with people in the town. I just really admired her. So often she has those quips I wish I had in any given situation!”

Instinctively playing her cards close to her chest, Mandy has to decide if she can trust the journalist who’s just shown up in town. Martin, meanwhile, is reassessing his commitment to unearthing the truth after an investigative story that spun horribly out of control.

“Martin is someone who was jet setting around the world righting wrongs, bringing justice to the world,” Arnold says. “This truth is so important that you know, if I’m going to hurt a few people along the way, it’s worth it if the story gets out.”

“There’s been the tragedy of a massacre happening here and the media stomping around, and is Martin going to contribute to that, or through setting the story straight can he help give this town a new future?”

The other main character in the story is the fictional town of Riversend. Film crews worked on location around Maldon, near Bendigo, and at the more remote Nyah West, up in the Mallee. “The advantage we have over the book is we can show things,” says Redman. “So visually, I don’t know if it’s literally a thousand words per image but we are definitely able to express the sense of isolation very quickly through what we show.”

The town author Chris Hammer created is inherently cinematic, Arnold says. “The idea of the kind of isolated town that was really wrecked by the event, picking up the pieces, so lent itself to screen”, Arnold says. “These key moments, these key locations, the bookstore-cafe being the centrepiece for a bit of romance.

“This was a beautiful country town, there was the chance for a flourishing community, but what happens when a town gets tarred with this, all people now think of when they hear Riversend is this awful massacre. If you’re a business owner, if you’re a local, if your family has grown up here what does this do to yourself, your future, your investment in your community and your family?”

There’s always the temptation, Redman says, to make films in studios, citing his movies Charlie and Boots and Strange Bedfellows, both starring Paul Hogan, as examples that benefited hugely from breaking out and working on location. On this production, recent floods gave them plenty of detail to work with. “In Baringhup [near Maldon] there was a caravan park we were using for some of the scenes. In October last year it was 2 metres under water so all the caravans were ruined, these were people’s houses. We could’ve created that visually on a backlot somewhere, but you wouldn’t have got the same feeling that these are people’s homes.”

Also, filming on location can produce moments of visual serendipity. Packard recalls a scene where Martin is talking to the sympathetic local cop Robbie (played by Adam Zwar). “At the end of the scene Robbie’s left sitting on a park bench. Greg McLean didn’t call ‘cut’ straight away, just waited to see what the actors might do. The actors didn’t do anything, but a flock of 200 corellas came swooping down and circled around him and then took off. The whole crew just gasped.”

With its dramatic scenery and the increasingly murky activities of the townsfolk, the series has all the hallmarks of an Australian thriller, but still, the heroes, villains and victims of this tale are not the usual suspects. “There’s an awful lot of stories about young women being killed,” says Packard. ”Not that it’s great to see five men being shot dead, but we’re doing something quite different there, it’s a different sort of crime.”

Scrublands premieres on Stan on November 16.

Disney's are Family Too(Sneak Peak Their Golden Years Chpter 1980)

A/N: Dorothy was actually watched by Mickey and Minnie whenever the other Looney Tunes couldn't. Bugs and Mickey are like pseudo brothers bonding over carrying the loads they do being the Lead stars of 2 of the Largest Company's in the Industry.

............

"Daffy she dropped her pacy in the car-" Dolly whined in her father's arms as he walked up the porch as she started to cry,"Hey its okay little kit, Papa Dafs got your pacifier"

The duck ran up behind holding the item up,

"Right here duckling," He offered it to their daughter just as the door opened, Mickey smiling fondly,

"Heard someone's being fussy," he playfully teased as the little girl grabbed the item offered to her and settled sucking on it,

"Dolly dropped her favorite dummy in the car, so-"

"Little miss was throwing a fit" he opened his arms as Bugs nodded smiling as he passed the child to him along with slinging her Diaper bag around his shoulder, "Hi Dolly, how's my niece doing,"

She just blinked at him, before smiling, patting his cheek,

"Hi Unca Mike!" He laughed, as Bugs and Daffy shook their heads,

"She is the only one who gets away with that he playfully threatened as Dolly looked over his shoulder crowing

"Ant Mimi!" And Mickey turned so Minnie could scoop her up,

"Hello little rabbit! Oh Aunties so excited to see you," She hugged the little girl as she laughed, before side hugging Bugs so she didn't squish the kit,"We got her promise,"

"Oh I know, just a whole month. It's gonna be long" Bugs sighed, Daffy nodded in agreement as he set down the suitcase full of her clothing

"We will take so many photos for you two, and we have a special trip planned." Mickey grinned before playing peek a boo with Dolly, who squealed a big smile on the kits face,

The Duck and Rabbit smiled watching the interaction,

"Oh we know she'll have fun. I just wish it wasn't so long," The pair of mice gave him a knowing expression as the clock chimed

"Oh bugger we need to be going to the airport, " The rabbit leaned down and placed a kiss to his child's forhead Daffy doing the same, cupping his ducklings face as she leaned into the touch he said

"You be good for them, okay?" Their kit bobbed her head

"Kay Papa!" Another kiss was placed before they walked out ,

"Thank you again you guys"

"Of course" Mickey replied as Bugs slipped out and the door shut "Now who wants ice cream before supper,"

"Michael Mouse!" Came Minnies scolding yet amused voice, the 2 year old grinning as her uncle scooped her up and made a beeline for the kitchen,

"Oh we won't spoil our Supper, just have a little bit." She shook her head as he placed the child in the booster seat,

As Minnie moved around the kitchen to begin making supper as Mickey pulled out the ice cream, and a singular bowl they could share, he didn't mind, as he scooped out a tiny bit of the treat handing the spoon to the kit who smiled

"Unca Mike, tank you!" He grabbed a napkin and tied a bib around her neck, before he sat down as he helped her take a scoop from the bowl, watching Dolly try to lick it like an ice cream cone, making a mess of her face

Pulling a disposable camera out as she was focused on the special treat he got a picture, before he helped the child wipe her muzzle she grunted trying to pull away to his amusement before delving back into it, he snuck a spoonful not noticing Minnie with her more professional camera got a photo of the pair's exchange,

She was grateful for Bugs and Daffy, for Dolly. A hand subconsciously finding itself on her abdomen, before turning to the sink, they had been trying over the last nearly decade since they'd married in 73 however with 1981 around the corner they found themselves unable, Dolly and Max helped ease the pain of the reality they faced, a future without children the one thing they wished for seemingly wouldn't happen.

Maybe they could look into adoption perhaps? It might sound selfish however she really wished for a child of their own, she was jolted out of her thoughts by Mickeys hand gently resting on her arm as he leaned over to place the dish now empty in the sink,

"Hey you alright?" He asked with tenderness and a knowing expression,

"Yeah, just thinking," She answered, as the mouse leaned over and placed a kiss to her forehead,

"It's alright," he whispered, before wrapping his arms around her hugging her from behind, before they heard the chair scoot out and Mickey turned quickly to help the child down,

She washed the bowl but smiled over her shoulder as she could see her wonderful husband wiping off the child's muzzle, hearing him ask

"Seriously kiddo, how in the world do you get ice cream on the top of your head?" As Dolly giggled and in her small voice answered

"Don know...magic?" Making her Uncle laugh again as he took a rag and wiped it off, before tossing it into the laundry and scooping her up,

"Sounds about right kid, magics playful like that," he smiled as he let some flow and she gasped, as it flitted around her and made all sorts of shapes of animals, before fading, the kit looking a little bit sad,"How about we go play with Pluto while Aunt Minnie cooks?"

Instantly, she perked up, clapping her hands,

"Pluto pluto!" Making him smile as he walked out,
