i don't think i'll ever get over how people treat kids that aren't good in school as worthless no matter what. "oh it can't be that bad" my guy idk how to tell you this but the last time i went to a normal high school the principal called me into his office to brag about how he failed me in all of my classes before the semester was even finished & i should quit while i'm ahead cuz i'm too stupid ("officially" diagnosed as such by a school counselor & a psychiatrist!!) to succeed. & this is considered normal
#''poor teachers!!'' yeah well at least they can fucking quit & go work somewhere else#''okay but times are different than when you went to school in the 1970's'' this was 2016 my guy. shut the fuck up#''well maybe you were a violent & severely misbehaving kid!'' i wasn't. i have ADHD & severe anxiety disorder & depression#my biggest crime was being too exhausted & dopamine deprived to do my homework#my dad talks about how he was treated in school & i'm like damn dude i went through the same exact shit#how is it that a majority of teachers & principals are still abusive power-tripping pieces of shit 60 years later#why haven't things changed#well actually the answer is simple & it's because they want disabled people to disappear#& if abled students that simply disagree with the way things are done get caught in the crossfire then that is acceptable#because anyone not fit to make billionaires a billion more dollars should just die!#anyways here are my original tags from that gravity falls post i just reblogged:#I know this is supposed to be an appreciation post but like. ''for being the ''dumb one'' he's surprisingly rational.'' seriously??#as ''the dumb'' but ''surprisingly rational'' one of my family this is THEE biggest misunderstanding & it drives me up the fucking wall#just because a person struggles in one area doesn't mean they're stupid & should be an irrational dumb dumb idiot baby holy fuckkk#sorry to OP but even when people try to ''appreciate'' stuff like this they can't help but throw in insults#simply because they genuinely believe that ''even though you're stupid you SURPRISINGLY act competent sometimes'' is a compliment#I'm less mad about this & more sad that this kind of shit is still so prevalent in 2024#both Stanley & Stanford are smart & competent & rational#they just show it in different ways & exceed in different (sometimes overlapping) subjects#this is normal for human beings but the big societal scam is that if you don't do it in the way Ford does then you're stupid & a failure#& being surprised that Stan is also smart & competent in his own ways is the biggest sing that you fucking fell for it dude#btw before i get @ ed for this. i WAS that kid#i was so much that kid the school actually diagnosed me with stupid & spiteful & i was told to quit while i was ahead (they failed me befor#obviously this is very personal for me but also i don't think people realize the language they use is on purpose & it's used specifically t#& it's still happening right now & that just. makes me wanna cry honestly#like why are people still surprised that people can specialize in something despite bad grades in school#you know. the thing we all know is literally rigged to either put you in jail or in a factory to make billionaires more money.#man sorry for the rant the original spirit of the post is super correct but like fuck HS grade-centric judging of people's entire character#Stan being able to defeat Bill is just not at all surprising if you were him or knew/know someone like him#or really paid any attention at all to the show while watching it

the baker's daughter - 400 cupcakes
WORK SYNOPSIS Y/n L/n works at a small bakery owned by her parents. One day, a pro hero in training shows up asking for 400 cupcakes.
︵‿︵‿୨♡୧‿︵‿︵
Chapter 1 - 400 Cupcakes
masterlist / next chapter
The bell above the door rang, alerting me someone was entering the bakery. "Hello! Good afternoon, how may I help you?" I ask. The man who entered had split hair, one side was white and the other was red. His eyes were different too. On his right he had a dark grey eye, and on his left was an ice blue. The left side of his face was scarred around his eye and down his cheek. Another thing I notice is his U.A. uniform. I quirk an eyebrow at this, knowing the uniform was always a sure sign of a quirk-user.
"Good afternoon. I have a question, it's very sudden," the boy said.
"Shoot!" I said with a smile. The boy tilts his head, not getting my words. "Oh uh, ask away..?" The boy nods.
"How fast can you make 400 cupcakes?"
I choke on my spit, "S-sorry?"
"400 cupcakes, how much and how long?"
"I uh, would have to ask my parents," I answer. "They should be in the back, I'll go get them."
The boy nods and I leave the cash register to the kitchen where my mom is baking and my dad decorating pastries. I knock on the wooden doorframe before entering. "There's a boy up front asking for 400 cupcakes," I explain.
"Sweetie, what did we say about believing scams?" Mom sighed.
"Hey! That was one time!" I pout. "But I think this one is serious, he's wearing a U.A. uniform. You know how the people from that school are."
"Quirk havers? Probably thought he was being kind going to a quirkless business," Dad grumbled. Mom looked at him with empathy. The three of us were judged harshly for our lack of quirks, we weren't 'ideal' in the current society. That angered my father.
"I'll go see what he wants, you stay here, F/N," Mom sweetly said. She rubbed his shoulder soothingly and walked out of the kitchen with me.
"Hi, my daughter tells me you're interested in 400 cupcakes?" My mom greeted him.
"Yes, that's correct. How much would that be and how long would that take?" The boy replied.
"Well, it'll run you almost 82 thousand yen..." Mom hesitantly said, knowing the price would scare most people off.
"Doesn't matter. I just need them in time for the U.A. School Festival," The boy said.
"Oh so you're rich-rich," I mumble to myself. The boy must've heard as he looked at me confused. My mom lightly hit my arm. I roll my eyes playfully.
"Well... that's two weeks away. We should have enough time!" Mom answered. "We do a half payment upfront and you pay us the rest once you collect the cupcakes."
"I can pay it all at once, it's no trouble," the boy said. He pulled out a black credit card. I looked at my mom and she shared my same thought "money, money, money".
"Right, that'll be... 81,700 yen," my mom said. She entered the price in the register and turned the card reader to face the customer.
Silently, he put the card in and used the PIN number. The satisfying ding of the payment going through made the workers at the shop elated. "Right! Thank you. If you could leave your name and number, my daughter will contact you for information regarding what you want." Mom explained. She offered over a pen and a notepad.
"Sure," the boy said. He grabbed the pen and paper and wrote his information on it.
"Thank you again... Todoroki," Mom said, her eyes widened when she read his last name. He nodded and walked out. Mom turned to face me, she had a mischievous smile on her face. I knew what she was up to.
"My daughter will contact you," I mocked. "REALLY MOM?!" My face flushed with color as I covered my face in embarrassment.
"Just trying to set my baby up!" Mom teased. "But you really should message him, we kind of need to know what to make."
"I can't believe he paid up front like that..." I said amazed.
"Right?! Didn't ask for proof or previous works... paid just like that."
"Why'd you look surprised at his name?"
"Todoroki is the last name of the number 1 pro hero."
"All.. Might..?" I was never really caught up on heroes. The prospect never interested me. Being a hero was a dream I could never chase. All because of the extra joint in my pinky toe.
"No. All Might retired. Endeavor!"
"Oh cool," I reply. Mom rolls her eyes. I stick out my tongue and pull out my phone. I put Todoroki's number from the paper into my contacts.
I showed Mom the messages. "Music-related, huh?" "I think it's kinda cool," I defended. She hummmed. "I'll work something up with your dad. Why don't you head upstairs?" She offered. "I can help you know!" I groan. "I know you can. But you also have a bunch of homework," Mom countered. "What's the point? I mean, I'm probably just going to end up working here for the rest of my life." "I don't want that for you, hun. This was mine and your father's dream, it doesn't have to be yours too." I sigh, "Fine. Goodnight, Mom. I love you." "I love you too."
I walk upstairs to the living area my parents and I reside. I open my bedroom door and flop onto my bed. I didn't bother doing my homework, instead I just stared at the ceiling. I thought back to the customer. He wasn't bad-looking at all. I hope I get to see him again. Well I mean I will, but maybe (and hopefully) not in the context of buying cupcakes at my parents' bakery.

Fuck it, here's an Agent Mega dissertation
Alright since I have such elaborate headcanon for my beloved precious Owen Carvour, I guess I should do it for Agent Curt Mega too. Sigh.
So, going off of the last big one, if Owen is born in 1928, then I'm gonna say Curt was born in 1930. I'm forever won to the Texan agent mega headcanon, but I think it's safe to say that Mrs. Mega is not from Texas, probably more like New York or I've seen people say New Jersey.
We know nothing about Agent Mega's dad, but I imagine he was kind of a loser and low level con artist and moved his pregnant wife down to Texas to do scams around the bustling oil industry, and then soon after Curt was born a scam collapsed and he ran off. It's either that or an Aladdin 3 situation where he was secretly a spy the whole time and had to go into hiding.
So we've got mama Mega, raising a VERY hyperactive (read: ADHD) little boy on her own, in a place where she doesn't have any support, and he just becomes her entire world. But she has to work a lot, so Curt becomes used to taking care of himself, and most importantly- keeping himself busy so he doesn't lose it.
In this headcanon Curt would only be 15 when WWII ends- not old enough to fight, but definitely old enough to have personally known a lot of kids from his hometown who come home in caskets. I just truly think of WWII as a formative experience for both these guys. For Curt it just feeds into that inferiority complex.
Now anybody who has ADHD knows that you already spend a lot of your life feeling inadequate, feeling self-conscious about not being able to be the person other people want you to be (*especially* if you're queer). You get defensive, especially when criticized. You also get restless.
I headcanon Curt as growing up in Abilene, Texas, mostly because I have a friend who grew up there and I've visited and the vibe is right.
I don't know if anybody has ever seen The Last Picture Show, but its a film set in small town Texas in 1951-1952 (so a little late for our timeline but still) and it's (more or less) about two high school seniors essentially trying to escape this suffocatingly small, dying town before they become doomed to spend their lives trapped there.
That's definitely what I think about Agent Mega too- this gay, ADHD teenage boy climbing the walls of this little town, never being able to fully be himself. But he's got a lot of energy (and more than a little anger) to burn off, so he does sports. It's Texas, so football for sure. Maybe wrestling too. Perhaps wrestling is even where he has his gay come to jesus moment.
And when he isn't doing sports, he's home, alone (mama Mega is working so hard), out back drinking a beer (or two, or three) and teaching himself how to shoot. I think he becomes hyperfixated on becoming an expert marksman, because with all of this shit he cannot control, all the stuff he is supposed to be but isn't, this is one area where it feels like he has the power here.
What starts off as "kid drinking beer to feel cool and rebellious" starts to morph into a lifetime dependence on alcohol. Substance use is a big issue for a lot of ADHDers for the same reason I think it would be for Curt- it calms him down. It eases that constant restlessness in his bones. It softens the edges of other people's criticisms of him. It makes him care a bit less what others think about him.
In a vicious cycle, he drinks to avoid feeling those big feelings (especially as a man, especially as a gay man, especially as a gay man in Texas), but the drinking leads to more criticism, which leads to more drinking to numb the emotional response to that criticism.
But his hyperfixation on learning to shoot pays off. Let's say he becomes a junior state champion trapshooter (did I look up trapshooting competitions from the 1940s? yes I did). He's good, especially when he hits the sweet spot of drinking just enough to calm his ass down but not so much that he's useless. Maybe this is how he comes to the attention of the A.S.S.
And he fully believes that these skills he cultivated, the ability to hit hard and run fast and shoot accurately, his ability to escape when it doesn't feel remotely possible, is why many years later he just kinda rolls his eyes at Owen for insisting that they do things carefully and methodically. Careful didn't get him out of small town Texas. Careful didn't get him the exciting non-stop life he has now, a life where he *almost* gets to be himself a lot of the time.
When Owen "dies," and its Curt's fault, he naturally turns to drinking to numb that pain. But its a lot of pain, so it takes a lot of alcohol to kill it.
I'm sure I could go on, but as always I have rambled a lot here so I'm just gonna leave it.

Jason and Roy being friends and using class of 09 characters (less insane):
*It sucks the creator of this game sucks, but these lines are still funny to me since I treat the game as a comedy*
Jason and Roy sat together having lunch at Burger King and discussing a charity event.
Roy: I'm pretty sure Ollie is running a charity scam.
Jason: No, I looked into the organization he's working with are the scammers. His name wasn't on the board of trustees. He's being scammed and the people running it are probably somewhere in Florida.
Roy (confused): How do you know this much about charities?
Jason (serious): My fucking piece of shit dad—who I want to kill—worked for a charity like that.
Roy (exasperated): Is there—okay, we won't explore that one. Do you really think he's not apart of it?
Jason: I doubt your father is smart enough to run a fake charity. He definitely fell for one though, the company is advertising NFTs on Tiktok. If that's not a scam I don't know what is.
Roy: They're advertising what on where?
Jason: It didn't makes any sense to me. Ollie seems like the type of fall for that though.
Roy: I... Yeah he is. Thanks.
Jason: I just find it funny he's that gullible.
---------------------------------------
Roy (agreeing to breaking into a bank): I'm cool with it.
Jason (shouting): Shut the fuck up!
Roy: I said I’m cool with it!
Jason: Nah, not you. I was hearing the voice again, telling me I'm wrong about something.
Roy: That isn’t even odd to me anymore, but have you tried listening to him?
Jason (chuckling): That’s a funny joke.
---------------------------------------
Jason: Do you know what a whip-it is?
Roy: I never did whip-its.
Jason: You look like the type who would use them.
Roy (happy): Oh, thank you!
Jason: That's strange that you took that as a compliment.
---------------------------------------
Jason: Where’s the coward arrow?
Roy: He hasn’t been around since you made him cry… and stuck to your promise about slashing his tires.
Jason: He better be afraid of me, because I’m not the one.
Roy: Oh yeah?
Jason nodded, a serious look crossing his face.
Jason: I don’t like how he talks to you. You’re really cool and smart. Handsome, I’ll admit—and you should be treated as such.
Roy raised an eyebrow, surprised.
Roy: Wow… that… um… have I really been deprived of a compliment for this long?
Jason: We’re friends. I’m going to be nice to you. Don’t worry about it.
Roy: And you're not trying to sell drugs to me?
Jason: You’re a recovering addict and my friend. No, I’m not going to sell you drugs.
Roy: Then I definitely went through it in life.
Jason: Has your dad ever complimented you?
Roy (laughing dryly): Not for a long… long time.
Jason: ‘Cause he doesn’t appreciate what he has. And seriously, Roy, if I ever see him talk to you like that again, I will rip his beating heart out and hand it to you on a silver platter!
Roy: And you’re not trying to have me relapse and then kill me?
Jason: N-no. I like you. You’re neat.
Roy: Oh… hm… the heart platter part is fucked up, but that’s so kind of you. This not being a ploy and you actually wanting to be my friend is still an adjustment.
Jason: Oh my God… you poor thing, you’re welcome. You make me dying seem like a coma. This is why I will be your friend forever! I will not let anyone hurt you, and if they do… they're gonna meet God!
Jason hugged the man, tightly. Roy patted the man’s back and then shrugged accepting this insane friendship.
Roy: Hm… All right.
---------------------------------------
Jason (paranoid): Spontaneous? Are you talking down to me?
Roy: No, it’s just a word that I read about in… um… Wuthering Heights?
Jason: Oh yeah, that’s a good book. I love you.
Roy: All right… Why did that make me feel happy?
Jason: Because you haven’t heard it in a while, and neither have I. That’s why I said it to you. I love you.
Roy: I… heart… you too.
Jason chuckled and pulled Roy into another hug. Roy smiled, confused, but not terrified. He patted Jason on the back, both appreciating the moment.
"You slashed his tires?"

You don’t get how bad I need your fem!gallavich headcanons 😭😭 (that being said pls - with no pressure - share some 🙏🙏🙏)
OKAY DON'T WORRY I'VE GOT A LOT OF THEM TO SHARE WITH YOU I HOPE YOU'RE READY FOR SOME GOOD WLW FEM!GALLAVICH FEELS (these may be a little all over the place but just roll with me here okay? okay here we go)
to start with, Ian is a nickname for Lillian, Mickey is a nickname for Mykhaila (Ukrainian feminine form of Mikhailo)—they'd still go by Ian and Mickey, because if Lip can be a nickname for Phillip then all bets are fucking off :p
technically all of this started with my brain going "lesbian gallavich with hella self image issues" because they don't feel like they can measure up to their "prettier" sister (Mandy and Fiona) but both of them thinking the other is gorgeous as hell. Mickey being kind of a femme/butch (which is why she's the one who calls the shots with her brothers, she's the tomboy compared to Mandy), and Ian wanting to be all pretty and femme but doesn't think there's a point to it because money and also she doesn't think highly of herself
things would be way different for them both as lesbians—Ian would definitely still be the forgotten middle child, although she and Lip would still be Fiona's backup ("you two are my rocks") because I refuse to believe that girl Ian wouldn't be just as committed to ROTC and fitness as canon Ian. She'd be able to kick anyone's ass any day of the week. I think she'd really look up to Lip and ofc he'd love Ian as his little sister but like, with the same kind of condescending vibe he gives Fiona and Debbie? Although maybe since they're practically twins his misogyny toward Ian wouldn't be as blatant.
she'd still be taller than him (tallest Gallagher no matter what!) and have long red hair that she just throws back in a bun or ponytail all military style. I can't see her having short hair just because short cuts can be a lot to maintain, better just to let it grow and keep it pulled back. (I know, I've thought way too much about the little stuff lol)
Mickey would be very punk. With an undercut and all kinds of piercings. Mandy gets more attention from boys but Mickey does get her share, although of course she's like blegh. She'd rather be kicking ass and taking names and proving to her dad that she's just as good at being a fuckin Milkovich as Iggy and Colin—she's got more brains than both of them combined and she's smart as a whip when it comes to doing math, as well as where scamming people is concerned. Terry would begrudgingly acknowledge this but never misses a chance to put her down because she's just another dumb bitch. Only serves to make Mickey more determined to show what she can do, though, and her brothers and cousins are no match for her when it comes to scrappy back alley fighting. She climbed to the top of the heap early on and punches out anyone who tries to take her on.
Ian absolutely falls in the lesbian stereotype of wearing flannel constantly. I feel like she would want to do girly sorts of things but like, doesn't feel she'd measure up to Fiona or other girls so she just sticks with "comfortable" as her main fashion staple. Her and Debbie probably share a room too, although as I said above, she's still super close with Lip. Debbie would ADORE her big sister, would look up to and admire Ian because they've got so much in common—it might even be that she finds Ian's lesbian porn and that's how she knows about it ("penetration isn't required for sex to occur").
I'm not sure how they'd meet in this au but it would still probably involve Mickey chasing Ian around trying to beat her up lmao. my original thought was maybe like, either Mickey chased after Ian because of something Lip did in a reverse of canon, or Mandy thought Ian was talking shit about her. Regardless, the idea of 5'1" Mickey chasing after 5'9" Ian is hilarious especially because I feel like Ian would end up being almost six foot tall by the time she's done with puberty.
even once Ian and Mandy end up being bffs (there'd definitely be some miscommunication, but Ian doesn't wanna get murdered by the Milkovich siblings, so she manages to clear the air with Mandy when she can get away from Mickey and their brothers), Ian probably wouldn't tell Mandy she's gay, gotta keep that shit on lock. So once they're besties she's gotta endure all the boy talk and be like oh haha yeah totally…but at some point Mandy would figure it out, probably because she's not dumb and also Ian "play what cool" Gallagher is not as subtle as she thinks she is. But Mandy, other than asking if Ian has the hots for her ("you're beautiful, but I like you better as my friend"), is actually pretty chill and realizes she doesn't actually mind hanging out with a lesbo. Yes, Ian and Mandy and Mickey would use all the derogatory slurs that get used towards lesbians, although Ian is used to the casual homophobia and Mickey is the most homophobic gay ever (I feel like she'd definitely call herself a fag and a dyke once she gets more comfortable in her identity).
idk how the whole grooming thing with Kash and Ned would transfer over—maybe Ned would be some rich lesbian cougar who wants a kept girl or something. But that's unfortunately a big part of Ian's character, the middle kid who's the only one to be physically abused (and yeah, Frank would still hit Ian, boy or girl), and is desperate for any kind of affection so attaches to anyone who gives it. Kash might be a (seemingly) meek wife to some bruiser of a husband who's short and has small dog syndrome, and that makes her sympathetic in Ian's eyes, thus making it easier for her to take advantage of Ian. I try not to think about Kash too much but it is an important part of Ian's self-image
I'm gonna talk about s3 in its own post because I have some Thoughts and Ideas for some changes to make things interesting :p
season 4 would be really even more depressing because I think that when Ian is manic (there'd be no running away to the army because she couldn't use Lip's identity; instead she'd go straight her sugar mama and from there calls Monica when things get too wild) she'd end up getting pimped out by Monica to really gross straight dudes—not that there aren't creeper lesbians who like younger women, but in general it'd be easier for her to find a job stripping at a regular club (lesbian bars don't seem to have the same opportunities as a straight bar or a men's gay bar do wrt making money). Poor Lip and Debbie finding her in the skimpiest outfit, worse than anything Fiona ever had to wear for a job, with way too much makeup on and dollar bills tucked in her underwear, coked out as hell, skinny enough you can see her hipbones, brain and mouth going about 300 miles a minute...ugh.
But Mickey coming and bringing her home safe and sound <3 beating up the skeevy guys trying to roofie her <33 watching over Ian while she sleeps <333
In a happier train of thought, I love the idea that Mickey really likes Ian's long hair and plays with it when she's not really thinking and Ian gets all 😍😍😍 because it means Mickey might like her omg. Mickey has a partial undercut and Ian loves the texture of the shaved part of her hair. Tells her not to let it grow back out and everything.
Mickey having to stand on her tiptoes to kiss her stupidly tall gf ("You're too tall, Red" "Complain all you want, Mick, you know you like it”). Mickey likes getting manhandled but only by Ian—anyone else tries it and they're losing a hand. But Ian shoves her against a wall and does her whole cocky, smug, looming thing and Mickey can't help but melt in her arms (not that she'd let Ian know about it, not at first; gotta make Gallagher work for that shit. Just cause she's a fag doesn't mean that she's anyone's bitch!).
I also like to think that Ian would try the super femme thing in s4 era and Mickey, once out, would be a little more comfortable being more butch, but they both come off as a mix? I just love the idea of fem!gallavich playing with gender stuff in that very specific lesbian relationship with gender—on one of Mickey's more butch days Ian jokes and calling Mickey her boyfriend and Mickey being like oh
personally I feel like Mickey in her dyke era (s5) is an absolute pint-sized powerhouse, and still an absolute fashion icon because those cut-off vests? the tank tops? perfection🤌🏻
most of my thoughts are of early gallavich because I think things would go much differently since Sammi can't call the MPs on Ian in this au, but lemme just say that there's some fun stuff I'll be adding in another ask to add to the DRAMA

Sometimes when I think back on Gravity Falls I just find it funny that, even if we've never seen Mr. and Mrs. Pines before except maybe their arms on the first episode, we just know that they're actually a bunch of weirdo but pretty good parents:
They named their kids Mabel and Mason which aren't really the most common twin names in 1999 because they weren't like those other parents who'd name their kids Jennifer or something as Alex said. He even confirms they're pretty counterculture.
Instead of sending the twins to his probably decent father for vacation to get fresh air, Mr. Pines sends them to his (obviously) criminal uncle in a weird tourist trap in the woods that obviously scams people.
Mabel gets to wear one of her dad's souvenir work shirts for her pajamas and I find that wholesome.
Dipper's mom used to put him in a lamb costume when he was still a toddler and he does a little dance which is embarrassing but also pretty cute honestly. He didn't seem to have issues with this until he reached "maturity" age.
The twins had matching Halloween costumes since they were basically toddlers and they seemingly put a lot of effort into them so that means that they're very open with the kids and their creativity and most likely helped them with their more complex outfits or that they're willing to spend extra cash on giving their kids cool matching outfits that they enjoy
The mail the kids send them say so much about how positive their relationship are with their kids.
Dipper blatantly explains in a postcard sent to them that there are cryptids in the town and even begs them for weapons. Mabel straight up excitedly wants to send their mom a video of her shoving gummy worms up her nose.
This probably means they're open-minded enough to let their kids do these weird things and for their kids to even share them with them with little hesitation.
Even with Mabel being initially upset that their parents wouldn't let Waddles stay (Honestly in another perspective is understandable because how are you going to care for a farm pig in suburban California? It might take a lot of work and it's probably not the best conditions to keep an unconventional pet when you're not used to it. Like we all know Waddles is great but practically speaking it's a lot to ask someone to let their kid keep a farm animal.), we know that they probably let Waddles stay anyway after Stan forces Waddles on the bus home.
They celebrate every holiday because Mabel wants to.
Some other observations on how the twins act that could clue us in on how their parents are. These are more headcanon-leaning but yeah.
Mabel's wonderchild personality filled with sparkles and rainbows definitely show that they didn't suppress her weirdness.
The scrapbooking also adds to the idea that Mabel was definitely allowed to be super creative.
Dipper's unhinged mystery solving behavior (honestly forgot how unhinged he really was until I rewatched the show this year) definitely shows that they probably didn't suppress his weird tendencies either.
Dipper, despite his child-aged pettiness (which is normal mind you), is able to handle intense social situations and could even find the appropriate words even when things are a little too complex. The standout example I could think of was learning of the true extent of Pacifica's abuse and how he's able to find a way to give her the courage to stand up against it. Definitely the most headcanon leaning but I do think that this could also be influenced to a more open household.
The twins truly don't have bad blood between them which means that it's possible that their parents had raised them in a relatively healthy (or at least healthier than others) environment. At the very least, if there was favoritism, it wasn't obvious to cause them any resentment for each other.
I could add more but that's all what's in my brain right now.

Shark in the UK 🦈
⊹˚₊‧───────────────‧₊˚⊹
Hi everyone,
As you might have noticed I was pretty silent since my arrival in the UK. I must admit that I have been through a lot of stress and changes in a very short amount of time and it's only now that I'm finally getting used to this new situation. Below you'll find a detailed post of my adventures so far, so if you are not interested you can simply ignore this and just keep in mind that I'll be returning to my posting schedule and fan-fictions very soon. For those who are curious, fasten your motherfucking seat-belts.
While I'm not an organized person I become one when I have something important planned so I was so well prepared for this journey that I was convinced I was safe from any misadventures... How wrong I was. I was barely done with the security controls at the airport when I realized they literally broke my phone's screen. I don't know if they bumped it or not but they broke it. The same phone in which I had my boarding pass. It obviously happened the only time I didn't print my plane tickets as I usually do. :) Fortunately, my best friend had lent me his old iPhone minutes before "just in case". I managed to airdrop my boarding pass on the second phone and took the plane without trouble despite the flight being delayed by one hour.
Upon my arrival in UK, I took a taxi to the hotel and had a nice time alone. I brought myself to the restaurant and peacefully slept, getting psychologically ready to meet my host family, and oh boy. This is... Something.
When I heard the word "host family" I imagined it to be an actual family, and a bit like when you're an au pair. Retrospectively, it's completely stupid because it was never written but idk my mind went full "ok I'll live with a local family". What a surprise it was when I knocked at the door and was welcomed by one lonely man and the very acrid smell of cigarettes that jumped at my face! While my host dad (@rysko @red-riding-wood @kittenonpluto pimp nickname they said) was extremely nice and welcoming, the more he showed me around the more my face dropped. I wasn't going to spend months in a local family but in an old house more or less laid out like a hostel. A hostel with a strong cigarette smell almost everywhere, five other girls, one dude, and dirt. The differences between my expectations and reality were huge and, as you can imagine, the pill was difficult to swallow. I swear when he opened the door I was this close to run away lmao.
Between my accommodations and the new rhythm of the international school I'm studying in, my mind went completely foggy for a few days. I didn't know what to think or what to feel anymore. Worse, I didn't know if my money was well-spent or if I just got scammed. Now, read what follows before you call me "ungrateful" or "princess-like".
It’s not what I got that made me feel bad, but rather the stupid and nonsensical expectations I had in mind. Then, I slowly realized that it wasn't because I hadn't expected it and that it couldn't be fun. Maybe it had a lot to do with how nice the five other girls and the people at my school are, but I started // I am starting to really enjoy it. The house might be old and not "that clean" (or at least not as clean as I'm used to), but the host dad is lovely, cooks for us every day, we have fast wifi, are close to the school, we have a key and are free to come and go as much as we want without a curfew, and the bedrooms, as well as the toilets, are clean. To be honest, some students have it really worse. I mean, I'm talking about students having to sleep in a room crowded with 7 people, or having to sleep on a mattress on the ground, the host family asking them to buy and cook their own food to the extent of some even locked the kitchen's door at night to avoid the student snacking/stealing food at night. Or students who are on 1 hour of bus-trip long from the school — those conditions I find absolutely disgusting for the extremely expensive price the students have to pay for this language exchange. With everything said, I consider myself lucky despite the cigarette smell and the "clean but not really clean" house.
As I'm writing this, it's Saturday 10 am and I can finally say it: I'm happy to be here, it's a one-life experience and I'm incredibly lucky my parents offered it to me. Unfortunately, I've caught a very bad cold and I've been sick since Wednesday: I think the combination of my emotional rollercoaster, the crazy British weather, my fatigue and half of my classroom being sick have finished me off. Now I can't wait to get better to start attending to a shitton of activities, planning trips around, and going to the pub. Also, I've got my nails done! Look at my freakin' sharp claws teehee.
Congratulations if you're still there by the way, lmao! Thank you for reading my nonsense. I'll be back very soon, both for writing and commenting, just wait for my cold to get better!
Love,
Shark.

have you watched all the episodes yet? what are your thoughts?
I just finished all three episodes and lemme first say. I got netflix again for this premiere and netflix has ads now???? this is bullshit
now some thoughts:
THERE ARE SO MANY STORYLINES I'm being cautiously optimistic but I have no idea how they will tie up everything. also I think the reason there are so many montages and music videos in there is partially because the show went into production too late and they had too much shit to wrap up so we had to figure out cool ways to skip some exposition which. I appreciate when they just say fuck it, deduct it. and if I'm anybody in arcane universe it's actually that thick big titty bitch in bdsm gear in the art at the start of episode 2
everybody is extremely hot, caitlyn obviously, jinx is slaying every shot, ambessa and mel.... I shan't. but also it has to be said, caitlyn has a really hot dad like tobias is a beekeeping age
I'm getting my dues as a caitlyn stan and supporter, I mean I haven't seen the takes yet so she might be already fighting for her life but let me already say I don't give a fuck, I'll be defending her all month. she looks so good, she's eating her lil lines, she's so bitchy - when vi was like I watched them kill my parents do you know how that feels and caitlyn goes yeah I do LIKE SHE GAGGED US BOTH A LIL. the kiss was a massive slay, like absolutely delivered, I have no notes. IM SO EXCITED FOR HER AND AMBESSA TOGETHER if you see me on ao3 in those tags be fucking quiet. like not caitlyn accidentally becoming a dictator because a muscle mommy milf manipulated her, you don't understand she is such a wish fulfilment character for me. also she's slowly giving more and more princess bubblegum the more her villain arc starts
idk why piltover has the worst security than any other place, anybody could blow up piltover. WHEN THAT GUY TACKLED MELS ASSASSIN AFTER HE ALREADY TOOK THE SHOT SJSJJSJSK
vis action scenes eat so hard I know many annoying men will main her because for some reason gamers kind of love butches. I wonder if caitvi is slowly becoming that choice for lesbian edaters like the other two that think are this in league are leona and diana amd also weirdly evelynn and ahri
ambessa is incheresting, like she hasn't revealed much of her motivations beyond trying to seize power and not die but I love the scheming and scamming that the women are committing right now. also she made my wimb tremble many times, just like mel, congratulations to the whole family. the design for black rose fucking eatssssss and overall this is such a game of thrones ass storyline without the excessive sexual assault. like ambessa is such tywin, caitlyn is her arya
that silco montage was giving a bit greys anatomy carousel montages but the animation was beautiful, the melodrama was high, the way you can feel her die inside also peak
I'm like still figuring out how i feel about jinx this season, like she's slaying every scene, she's a diva but idk how I feel about the kid yet. jinx and sevika go crazy together, they ate thaaaat. she's kind of calm as fuck but I think with how suicidal she is it makes sense because it's like she's already given up, she made her peace and is finishing her business before she dies so it's this very eery calm. I kind of fuck with it, I think that's an interesting base but I can't figure out what exactly her storyline will be yet.
and the vi and jinx fight was soooooo. I cant lie when vi was like I didn't think my sister would be orphaning kids and jinx fucking went done it to myself enough, like i cackled. and then I SCREACHED when she said I know you're sweet on her, shut uppp caitvi fandom is so annoying I forgot I love them sm, like lesbians we always win idc
AND THE END PART OH MY GOOOD WHEN JINX GETS HER FINGER SHOT OFF AND SPITS OUT BAD BITCH LINES I WAS LIVING AND SHAKING and then the fucking kid had to get in there. I'm sorry that pissed me off if I was caitlyn I would also take the shot. I'd rather vi ended the moment in someeee way or even if caitlyn took a shot anyway. idk it's just episode 3 I'll see how it goes
overall I think zaun storyline is such a mess but it's so weird fantasy steampunk vibe I kind of love it. viktor girls... I see your vision now I almost fell in love at least once when he started looking like a nuclear waste rat

anyone talking about the secondary musical reference in thisisnotawebsitedotcom?
i dare say i'm stretching it but
with a capital "T", and that rhymes with "P" and stands for "pool"? or, even, words like.. like "swell?" (trouble, trouble, trouble.)
or, if you want to go even further, he's got a girl in every county [...] and that's 102 counties!
the speech predates the musical by a whole 5 years but i think that's the least of our concerns
(more nerdass explanations down below)
if you're not familiar with what musical is being referenced here, i don't blame you. it was a broadway phenomenon in the late 50s-early 60s in america, later had a (rather stellar) hollywood adaptation, and an at-home movie adaptation in 2003.
it's called "the music man," and the only reason i even know of the musical is because it's one of my dad's favorites.
now, i could just stop here, leave you with the information, and go on my merry way. but as someone who is (for better or for worse) very well acquainted with the story of "the music man," you bet your bottom dollar that i noticed some parallels right quick.
the protagonist of "the music man," harold hill, is a traveling con man who's so well-versed at the art of sales that he can put up with the speedy advancements of society without an issue. he seems to have a particular scheme of promising to set up marching bands all around illinois, then running with the money before they get a chance to check him out for anything.
though, of course, professor hill proves himself not a con man for the sake of one person. a lovely librarian and pianist, marian paroo. she's a skeptic and sees professor hill for the scam artist that he is, and attempts to distance herself from him and prove he's a liar. sounds familiar, doesn't it?
(though, of course, ms. paroo doesn't set professor hill on fire, and emmaline doesn't start dating the pseudo-alive silas at the end of the story.)
now, there's already enough comparison to make here already, even if half-assed, but i'd like to take a deeper look at the specific song that silas was mentioning here. "ya got trouble."
professor hill, a little bit after settling into our story's setting of river city, illinois, is informed that the billiard room was just hooked up with a new pool table. this sets off his plan to rally river city to his side: convince them of the trouble that could arise from such "sinful" activities such as your teenaged kids sneaking off to... play pool!
"Just as I say; it takes judgement, brains, and maturity to score In a balkline game; I say that any boob Can take and shove a ball in 'a pocket And I call that sloth; The first big step on the road to the depths of deg-ra-day I say, first: medicinal wine from a teaspoon ... then beer from a bottle!"
the narrative of the song follows professor hill deluding the crowd into his point: don'tcha see what we've come to? the new pool tables here? heck, pool at all, for that matter! do you want your kids bein' enticed by sin like that, hm? influencin' their fickle, innocent minds with this sort of stuff when they can't fight against the devil, unlike us adults?!
(note, "mass-staria" is a portmanteau of "mass hysteria")
silas does almost the EXACT opposite, in terms of message. isn't conformity boring? society, law; it's all so mundane! conformity's made in order to hide what you're REALLY meant to be: a crazed, sinful animal! you were MEANT to act on your impulses, every desire you've had. stop following the flock, and follow those who renounce society, like me.
take a listen for yourself, too, i'm sure you could find even more to it if you looked deeper, dug further.
and i'm sure i have more thoughts, but i think i might've lost my own plot on this one.
#bill cipher#silas birchtree#gravity falls#shit that lukas says#again. is this anything you guys#i don't know#but i do believe#alex hirsch did this intentionally.#included this syntax and diction INTENTIONALLY.#and even if just coincidence i still think there is some Intent here#dont ask me what the intent is but i smell it

god i know i keep half-tongue-in-cheek saying that my dad is literally belos owlhouse but. i've apparently gotten a little desensitized to Just How Bad He Is (because i have ESCAPED, YAY) & so today has been a delightful adventure.
i wrote an AITA post from his POV about stuff that happened several years ago, bc i was curious about how bad he'd get dragged - i updated the timeline but the Only fact i changed was the reason for his Woes (i blamed COVID economic struggles, which actually makes him a Hero compared to the truth. the truth being so ugly i'm not gonna detail it here good god).
i kept it true to POV by only using things that he actually did say to me at the time about why he was doing the things that he was doing, & blocking out all the relevant info about why the wronged party (me) was so upset, & having him praise his daughter (me) and go "i love her so much :) she's so smart and independent and i would never hurt her :)", & having him half-assedly admit he might've sounded unreasonable/angry/malicious, in a way that was clearly supposed to earn Good Dad points for being so Willing To Admit Imperfections, despite a continued constant doubling-down refusal to answer questions about actual important shit or fix anything ever.
cannot emphasize enough that this was not a fictionalized/embellished/creative POV. the only points of fiction were 1) my dad did not write these things on reddit, he said them to me in real life word for word instead and 2) this happened many years ago, not like... yesterday.
anyway the thread blew up and the commenters were all so kind and genuinely worried for me (as in, the daughter) and offering so much help that i hopped on a diff account to be my past self so i could reassure people i'm okay & had a plan in motion for gettin' the hell outta dodge. because i felt REALLY BAD that they didn't know i..... did in fact get out. people were so nice it made me actually fucking cry jesus CHRIST. i had in fact perhaps forgotten that these things were all as bad and worrying as they were
now. this is all a very serious and harrowing-sounding prelude to the actual point of this post, which is. a bullet list of some of my FAVORITE FUCKING RESPONSES. revel in these with me i had so much fucking fun. i have taken DOZENS AND DOZENS of screenshots to peruse whenever i need a healthy dose of Perspective
here they r:
you are CARTOONISHLY EVIL?
HOLY ABUSE BATMAN
DO BETTER. RIGHT NOW.
did you even listen to yourself writing this. HOW
there's something seriously wrong with you. like on an intrinsic unfixable level
hey this happened to me too! my parent died and i had a party about it btw
your daughter is never going to speak to you again after this
(note from the future: yeah)
you're going to act confused and sad when she goes no-contact aren't you
(NOTE FROM THE FUTURE: HE SURE FUCKING IS)
i think you are creating your own problems and then getting mad at them. maybe instead you could not do that
is this ragebait. i can't imagine anyone this horrible actually existing
this isn't ragebait. i can tell this isn't ragebait because I Know This Kind Of Man So Intimately
you are the asshole on literally so many levels i'm going to write a 15 paragraph response line-by-line dissecting everything wrong with you
are you aware that you're lying or are you literally this incapable of 2 seconds of honest self-reflection
i need to donate to a gofundme for your daughter right now immediately
(note from the future: i am not going to scam people by pretending a long-done sitch is a current emergency on gofundme. have no fear.)
wow. okay i'm gonna go hug my mom and thank her for not being you
you are Actually Literally Empirically the Actual Literal Worst Parent who has Actually Literally Ever Existed
HOW FUCKING DARE YOU????
WHO DO YOU FUCKING THINK YOU ARE.
I AM A 57-YEAR-OLD MOM OF FOUR ADULT CHILDREN AND THE MERE THOUGHT OF DOING ANY OF THE THINGS YOU HAVE DONE HERE MAKES ME PHYSICALLY NAUSEOUS
these vibes are so skeevy. leave her the fuck alone????
along with ASTONISHINGLY accurate inferences about exactly what was happening with the daughter (me) in all the missing missing reasons & like..... exactly how the situation was So Much More Ugly And Horrifying than an innocently confused i'm-so-well-intentioned dad-POV post would have you believe.
so. anyway. that was literally the most validating experience i've ever had in my entire life. i know i've said he's a bad guy before but i also always forget just how far beyond the pale he is. like wow that was. that was not a normal average human experience to have growing up huh.
IN CONCLUSION.
if you guys are ever wondering why i am the way that i am about, like........ anything....... everything....... whatever......
just remember.
i was raised by belos owlhouse.
#long post#you are allowed to laugh. this is very funny and i'm having a wonderful time healing so far away from him#CARTOONISHLY EVIL they said. the post wasn't even about any of the actual active abuse or trauma. yall.#cartoonishly evil. yeah.#when youre in the middle of something you stop noticing how bad it is after a while (see also: the current physical diseases)#but nobody will shock your system with a truth bomb like an angry mob of worried redditors. cartoonishly evil. GOD.#abuse ig#i dunno what other tags this needs. just roll in this moment with me.

Aw, guys. This chapter made me super happy. Chapters with all four of them together are my favorites, but actually it's always the ones with Qiu, too.
I love this man.
He's more of an agent of chaos in this story than She Li is (was 🫤) Not because Q is unpredictable or poses an immediate threat, but because him being near generally indicates that someone else has plans. I mean... It's not totally unbelievable that He Cheng forgot to feed Q and he really is just swinging by the market on the way home to his now emptier, dogless home.
But is he?
I doubt it.
Though I do not doubt that he's using his current goose-wrangling babysitting gig to get in on that certified home cooked MGS action. Again.
Qiu is cheeky and bold and unyeildingly bulldozes his way into where he needs to be. Which is why he's the perfect bridge for HC to have between himself and the idiots. Do you think HC would have gotten the same reaction, stumbling into them and bribing himself a seat at the dinner table to keep an eye on them?
Q is crass--even his boss--and that makes him approachable. He's just a dude with a job he thought would be better (like MGS) that he got because he has a level of loyalty to a powerful man that he can't fully explain or probably even justify (like HT) and is now responsible for the safety of a flighty idiot that can't seem to stop getting kidnapped (like ZZX). But he's strong and capable and protects the people he needs to protect (like JY wants to be, HT too). Q can reach them in ways that HC's position would never allow.
He's there when they need more hands in a fight, when the kids are being scammed, when they can't build a fire, when they can't get to school on time, when JY needs to be un-kidnapped, when HT gets to say goodbye to his dog. He gets them ice cream (and king crab!) and guitars and firewood. He gives them rides on his motorcycle and lets them roughhouse but punishes them when they take it too far. He teaches them how to be stronger and when to show restraint and oh my god Qiu is the only suitable father figure in this whole damn story.
It's just a bonus that I'm never going to be sad looking at any part of him.
But his presence is a harbinger.
Of impending mafia send-offs? Of looming threats of rivals? Of teenaged hijinks or mindless street thugs? Of malicious neighbors with cat lasers toys?
We won't know until they strike. (Although, I have my assumptions)
I was going to talk more about the chapter, but this kinda became a Q appreciation post. I couldn't help it. And neither could I help the onslaught of senseless head cannon from taking over.
Because I really really want to see Mom's reaction to Q. He's a gruff muscles-definitely-for-more-than-show dude, but she lives with a prickly "delinquent" that towers over most people, so she knows how to read between the lines.
But--and I WILL die on this hill--she knows how to read between the lines.
Do I think we'll ever get the Momma confrontation I've asked for so badly for years now? Probably not outside of my drafts. But I don't care. She knows, and I know she knows, and you know I know she knows👃
Because in the same breath that I wish for her to react to the mafia presence, I also just... I want this single dad (yes, single. You're going to make him do all the childrearing, send him off to clean up the messes, AND STILL NOT FEED HIM?!) to be treated kindly by the mother of all mothers. I want them to commiserate on keeping track of these animals. I want him to reassure her that her son isn't going to be held back any more. I want her to make him soup that tastes so good he asks for some to go and she gives it to him under the condition that he comes by any time he wants a home cooked meal.
And HT dies a little inside. And so does MGS the first time "A-Qiu" takes her up on her offer...
I'll stop now before I make any grievous mistakes, but I'm sure you can imagine that my draft list of questionable prompts is growing 😈
#19 days#brother qiu#I was going to write this yesterday but i had to do my real job so sorry it's late#But I'm not sorry for letting my head cannon get out of hand at the end there#momma mo

Does anyone else feel a little icky about oakworthy rn?
Especially after this episode it just doesn't feel right. Like at first it was fucking sweet to see a queer person in the main cast, like "oh an awkward quirky boy crushing on an overly confident drama dweeb, sick."
After the comedy standup episode and learning that no he didn't steal the mascot costume for school spirit and no he doesn't actually like Normal I was like ok cool, not ideal but certainly salvageable. Maybe an friends to enemies to lovers kind of thing, I still have hope for them.
Them after that is was just all downhill. It feels more like Hermie's just using the fact that Normal likes him for his own gain and that just doesn't sit right.
Like yeah Hermie has his own shit with his dad's going on as well as obvious mental health issues to deal with but that shouldn't be an excuse. And it certainly shouldn't be Normal's job to fix that.
And the fact that Normal is now developing actual feelings for Hermie and genuinely trying to help someone who (for lack of a better word because it feels too little to say crush) he loves just breaks me to see him get treated like this.
Hermie knows Normal likes him and he's actively using that to try and get Normal to first kill his dad then get with two of his friends.
Maybe if Hermie sees how much pain he's putting Normal through, or I don't know like Normal being doodlerised or something and he starts either trying or move on maybe then they can build a relationship or friendship.
I just want Normal to be happy, maybe it's just my own baggage filling into this or something but this isn't right. The amount of stress that Normal's under has got to stop.
I mean first your dad goes missing, then you realize your dad has been running some organization to fight monsters, turns out he isn't proud of you, one of you're friends alliance herself with a murderer, they kill your principal Infront of you, your dad fucked with the world up, you have to go into another dimension to save your dad, a weird monster thing from that world is the only person to see how hurt you are right now, you're finally able to go home, now your friends going through some shit that you have to help with. After that you learn that the boy you've been crushing on scammed you for your mascot costume, something you love very dearly, but that's fine you think its awesome that someone has that much school spirit- SIKE. Turns out he didn't do it for any reason you thought, actually he couldn't give less of a shit about you, now he's asking you to kill his dad for a date, then goes directly to you for advise to get with your friends after you learn that your very cruelty free very vegan and consent enforcing parents have been forcing your sister to fight and kill animals because she has to be the chosen one.
Like dude can't catch a break, so much is out of his control and none of the kids or adults seem to be doing anything about it or care. This is probably one of the only things he can control in his life and yet he's still getting hurt by it.
It would make sense if he got doodlerised and honestly that might have to be the thing that get his family and friends to care about it. I'm not saying all the other teens traumas and struggles aren't valid but you can't compare them.
Taylor has always had a good life, he's had a caring, rich, and financially stable mother.
Linc has two wonderful dads who care about his mental health and supports his interest, sure grant hasn't always been truthful about his really dangerous job but even when they were trying to keep the teens in the d.a.d.d.i.e.s building he cared about his sons wellbeing.
Scary is the only one out of them who stands a chance against the emotional pain scale against normal. Shehas a wonderful mother, but she struggles with not having her dad around and doesn't feel like she fits in her own family and now the fact that her step father has been shot in front of her which I'm not saying isn't as bad as what Normal's going through just hold on. All of the teens struggle don't even touch the generational pain that normal is going through with his entire life and the lives of his dad and uncle and his grandfather.
It's clear he's trying so hard to carry everyone else's pain and Hermie is deliberately using his kind and caring nature and it feels so wrong. He's not blind he can see how much normal is holding and using his emotions and Normal's knowledge on how he views him and using it against him.
I want so badly for it to work but I don't know how it can.
Anyways this was more stream of consciousness than I wanted but let me know your ideas on it, maybe I'm thinking about it wrong I don't know.
#i can't bare the pain of being#crying screaming gargling puking shitting streaming pissing fainting awaking crying#i know im thinking#too much about this#but i can't fucking stop#damn you autism and adhd#dungeons and daddies season 2#dungeons and daddies#dndads season 2#dndads#oakworthy#normally oak swallows garcia#hermie the unworthy

Ed Edd n Eddy Fanfic Save Peach Creek
Chapter 1: Party Time Boys!
Waring for slight language.
“BRrrrrrrUuuuuuurrrrrrring!”
Went to the last bell on Friday at Peach Creek Middle School as all the students poured out happy to be finally out of class. It was a half day which meant no homework and stuff which meant it was going to be a fun weekend for there's a party tonight at Kevin’s who was hosting, three familiar figures walked out at the school entrance being the Eds! “it’s party time boys!” Called Eddy the claimed leader of the three, hands stuffed in his pockets leaning back a bit in his ‘cool walk’ stride his two best friends walked along beside him also excited about the party tonight “PARTY at Kevin’s woohoo! Dance like the undead!” Exclaimed Ed the tallest Ed in the group bouncing with joy.
“Indeed this will be quite the commemoration after our long year punishment by our parents and regaining their trust in earning our freedom from our 'Accident’ on the cul-de-sac,” Edd otherwise known as Double D the smartest Ed joined while mentioning said 'Accident’ of the biggest scam in history that went very wrong that almost caused the Eds to go in the run from the other kids.
“Pessshh don’t remind me sock-head that is all in the past now that we’re finally in the cool group nothing can go wrong come on let’s drop off our school crap at n’ headin' to town I told shovel chin we’d be bringing the root beer and good stuff for the party it’s going to rock the night away!” Eddy scoffed/cheered pumping his fist in the air Ed joined along as Double D shook his head smiling. Three friends changed and a good way this year after their adventure to Eddy’s Brother’s place at Mondo-a-GoGo Amusement Park hoping for secret refuge there and learning of Eddy’s Big Bro's true colors in a process that led to them standing up against Big Bro with Eddy 'Defeating’ him and the kids gaining a new respect for them.
As the Eds got farther and farther away from the school grounds three check and figures behind them their shadows eerily falling towards the Eds who are unaware of the three presences giggling mischievously after being gone for so long!
THE KANKERS!
“OMG our boyfriends look so more handsome than ever my Big Ed has gotten even more taller!” Cooed May awestruck in a puppy dog love as Marie the 2nd eldest snickered excited to see her adorable sock-head love muffin again “guess who’s back Double D your honey is back to give you love and attention,” she giggled as Lee their eldest sister/leader joined in their cackling boyfriends are going to be quite surprised by the return they miss their boyfriends so dearly this past year but now they are finally back at Peach Creek ready to cause some chaos and mischief while spending time with their Eds especially at a party where 'everyone’ is invited “Heh I can’t wait to see you my little man come on girls it’s time we go get gussied up got to make sure that our boyfriends will have an experience at this party that they will never forget!” They laughed loudly and mischievously as they walked off towards their home back in Park and Flush trailer park for this is a night that will change everything!
By the time the Eds made it to the Cul-De-Sac everyone was already there talking with Kevin about what to bring for the party!
Nazz was thinking of what to wear for the party "I gotta decide what to wear."
Knowing the perfect outfit for later "All right dudes and dudettes now that my old man is about to head out we'll have the house to ourselves for the whole night!" Kevin announced leaning on his bike in a 'cool' pose as he continued "The party will be ready in an hour so feel free to bring anything you want for the party as extra," his dad let him order two giant long party subs and chili dogs.
"Nice Kevin I'll make sure to bring a veggie plate and chips," Nas offered with Kevin giving her a thumbs up "Good thinking that you're awesome babe," Kevin called giving her a thumbs up "No problem dude and please don't call me babe," she replied with slight annoyance as Kevin slight embarrassed "sorry my bad," knowing things were pretty still a bit tense between them ever since the bike incident at the swamp while back as Kevin is trying to rekindle their 'relationship'? As you can call it.
"Rolf will bring Nano's Manley broth to this exciting party good friend Kevin!" Rolf happily declared and everyone has to admit the broth was pretty good unknown to everyone not even the son of a Shepherd himself might have traces of alcohol in it.
Meanwhile,(At Edd’s house,) Edd saw his mother was home and washing the dishes.
as the rest of the Eds came into Double D's home surprised to see Edd's Mom home too as his had rare days being home early "Greetings Mother it's nice to see you home early today," Double D smiled he knew he had a strained relationship with his parents with two of them constantly not being around.
It was a lot but his dear Mother Jenn tried her best to be home for her only son "Hello, Eddward dear and greetings boys it's nice to see you here too," greeting Ed and Eddy her son's best friends "Hi Mrs. V IT'S NICE TO SEE YA," Eddy said a bit loud trying to be smooth "Hi Mrs.V Double D's mom!" Ed said sweetly as Double D's mother reached into a bag "I went ahead and got you some of the hummus you requested at the store for you and your friend's party to bring I got you good kind Beet Tahini, Smoked Gouda Bacon, and Sweet Red Pepper along with some of your favorite crackers for dipping," she declared holding out fancy hummus containers and fancy crackers for her son to bring.
Double D thanked her happily "Oh thank you Mother this will surely have everybody thrilled at the party with these delectable appetizers I believe Father would be jealous with his taste for good hummus," speaking of where was Double D's old man? "Speaking of Father where he is Mother, isn't he coming home tonight?" Double asked curiously probably knowing what the answer would be as Jenn gave a sad smile "Sorry Eddward dear I'm afraid your father has to stay for another conference in the city in 2 days I hope you understand dear," giving Eds hug to comfort him as his friends gave a bit of a sad (Ed) mostly annoyed (Eddy) silently knowing it was one disappointment after another with Double D's father who seemed to find work more important than his family life, so Eddy decided to brighten the mood "hey Double D we better head out and go get that root beer for the party huh we got to make a good impression with that killer hummus too it was nice seeing you Mrs.V we'll see you later!" He yelled out as Jenn gave her son a kiss on the cheek cheering him up a bit "It'll be all right Eddward you go ahead with your friends and go have fun at that party all right I love you," making the smartest Ed smile "and who knows maybe you'll meet with that lovely girl Nazz later," she could giggling making Edd blush slightly pink as his friends giggled a bit Gathering up the supplies and kissing his mother kiss on the cheek goodbye the Eds made their way out quickly towards town to get the best root beer in the store that's the good stuff! When they got back they had half an hour to spare to finish getting ready "Come on boys we'll head to my place to get ready we got to look slick and sly to make an impression at the party!"
Eddy grinned giving his best smile as they made it to the house they saw Sarah and Jimmy on their way to Jimmy's house Ed happily at his baby sister "See you at the party later baby sister you too Jimmy!" Sarah smiled back at her brother ever since their adventure to Eddy's brother's place things have improved between the siblings there becoming more nicer and respectful to her brother after she realized how she treated Ed and realized she would have become like Eddy's horrible brother that she needed to be more appreciated to her big brother and how much he loved and care for her but Sarah promising herself that she had to improve her relationship with him and start being a good little sister to him "hi Ed we'll see you guys there me and Jimmy just need to pick up some supplies for s'mores and Jimmy's bringing some cookies," at the mention of Jimmy's cookies Jimmy himself excitedly joined in "I can't wait to show off my homemade strawberry cream cheese cookies Sarah! Oh, this is going to be fun see you Eds there!" They laughed getting to the house to get their desserts for the party!
On their way to the store Ed and Sarah’s mom gave them a ride there!
"Thank you for the ride, Mommy!" Ed cheerfully set from the back of their minivan with Edd Eddy and Jimmy well Sarah happily sat in the front as Tammy pulled up to the front of the store "Give mommy a kiss," Ed and Sarah gave their Mom a goodbye kiss as they got out of the car as she dropped off the store they'll have to walk home but they didn't mind for their mom had to go to their Aunt Tina's (their mother's big sister) for a bit of a girl's time! "See you later Mommy have fun at Auntie's!" Ed waved goodbye to their mom as did Sarah "Bye Mom have a good time," her mother waved "You kids behave Ed remember to look after Sarah and Jimmy okay remember you're the man of the house while daddy is away!" Before driving off to head to her sister's Ed gave a salute to his mom "Aye aye Mom Big brother Ed will keep baby sister and Jimmy safe!"
Later after getting 4 packs of root beer and s'more supplies the teens and tweens headed back to Eddy’s house with Sarah going with Jimmy to pick up his cookies, meantime the Eds were freshening up his mom was getting him ready (much to his embarrassment)
"Ma! You don't need to fix my hair I'm 15 practically a man!" He complained while Ed and Double D silently giggled as Eddy's mother Jessie cooed at her little man "Oh Eddy I just want to enjoy this moment making sure you are nice and handsome for your friend's party," she said as she finished up combing his hair back "and there oh my little man looks so handsome" she cooed more giving her son a big hug! (Again much to his embarrassment) as she smothers him with kisses "Ma me and the boys gotta go we're going to be late!" Eddy complained one last time before his mom gave him one last big kiss on the cheek "Come on boys let's head out see you later Ma!" Quickly pushing his best pals out the door with their things for the party! Heading towards the sidewalk Nazz's mother walks by Erin was here to play cards with Jessie and it was poker night! Out the door, Nazz greeted them "Hey guys ready to head to Kev's?" Holding a bag of chips and a veggie platter.
"uh huh." Ed gave a thumbs-up nodding same as Double D replying "Indeed Nazz we're prepped for Kevin's conviviality," Eddy showed off the cases of root beer "We got root beer for days come on y'all let's go and boogie out this party!"
Once they were at the party, Nazz's dad brought out a huge cake that Kevin's dad asked he could pick due to not being able to pick it up in time Mr. Van Fartanschmeer happily agreed to help his friend just in time brought it to them to drop off before he went to the gym, the cake being a chocolate hazelnut cake with cream cheese frosting! "Thanks for the cake Dad have a good workout!" Nazz way to her dad as he left after closing the door it was just the teens they had the whole house to themselves without a grown-up in sight! "Turn up the tunes and let's get this party started BABY!" Eddie yelled the teens cheered as Kevin turned up the music a song started playing blasting loudly on the stereo with some hot beats!
Unknown to the dancing teens three familiar shadows fell upon the house from the sunset "Get ready to party girls our boyfriends are in happy surprise!"
Meanwhile, at the party, everyone was having a good time Eddy was having a dance-off with Jimmy and Kevin "Make room, make room! Eddy is coming in hot!" He yelled dancing his body to the beat!
Ed was doing the funky chicken along with Johnny and Plank "Gee you sure know how to put the funk in the funky chicken huh Plank!" He laughed to his buddy Ed joining in "Haha yeah Plank the chicken dancer! Go, Plank! Go Chickens! Cockadoodledoo! I am Ed the funky rooster!" Everyone laughed at Ed's silly dance while making the clucking sounds of a rooster.
Everyone laughed as Ed crowed like a rooster again as Double D shyly talked with Nazz complimenting her on her new pixie cut "It suits your athletic and glamorous style Nazz,"
Nazz blushed a little flattered by the comment "Thanks Double D it has really grown on me ever since my hair grew fully back it's one of the latest styles," suddenly she felt her phone buzz " Just a minute Double D," she paused checking her phone. It was a call from her mom "Hey Mom what's up," Turned out her Mom's interview went great with a new modeling gig.
"That's great news, Mom," she replied excitedly as her mom explained she would tell her more later when she got back after she hung up Kevin walked up to Nazz "Hey Nazz mind if I share dance with ya?" She thought for a moment turning to Double D who gave her a happy nod of encouragement "Don't mind me guys you two have fun on the dance floor besides somebody's got to outdance Eddy," he laughed. Mention of Eddy who once again yelled out to the music that he was on fire! "Oh yeah, Eddy's coming to town I'm an unbeatable hot dancer baby!"
Soon The Rock song ended with a new song as Eddy and Ed took breaks to catch their breath heading over to the table to grab something to eat and drink Eddy grabbed himself an iced chilled root beer and Ed cut himself a slice of Italian sub munching happily as all that dancing made him hungry!
Taking a sip Eddy looked around "This is some party hey guys?" He commented looking at his two best pals but suddenly saw his MOM standing in the doorway!
"Ma what are you doing here?" Chocked Eddy almost spitting his drink Jessie instantly patted her son's back to help him "Dan called and wanted me to check up on you guys make sure that you are doing fine sweetie," she voiced, her motherly sweetness as everyone assured that they're all doing okay.
Before leaving Jessie handed Eddt something "By the way, you forgot your spare underwear,"
"Ma!" Eddy went beat red in embarrassment quickly taking the underwear and hiding it behind his pocket as his friends tried not to laugh for their poor friend even though Mrs.McGee meant well.
After the checkup and kissing her son on the cheek (again much to his embarrassment) the party continued without a hitch without the adults in sight just as they were finishing the 7th song and went silent for a minute suddenly the Eds and the kids heard three familiar giggles, giggles that brought back a memory they hadn't remembered in a long time as a chilling chant came into their ears!
"Ed, Edd 'n Eddy. Sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G."
Eddy broke out in a sweat "Double D are you hearing what I'm hearing!"
"Ed, Edd 'n Eddy. Sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G."
Edd couldn't believe it either he had to be hearing things! "K-I-S-S-I-N-G." But how? They haven't been seen in a year!
Ed was shaking in fear as Sarah tried to ask what was wrong only thing that could matter was "Ka!..Kkaaa!"
Suddenly the front door was kicked open by a strong force as three familiar figures walked in to join the party!
"Lee? May! Marie!?"
Double D gasped in shock as the three sisters who had a strange admiration towards the Eds made their way inside Lee leading the way "heard there was a party that everyone was invited so we thought we'd show up to see our darling boyfriends again after so long," as no one dare make a move as each Kanker went to their significant Ed.
"What are they doing here? What are you doing here?" Eddy cried pointing up at Lee who looked down at him amused "It's nice to see you too my little man," she cooed chuckling.
"Long time no see Double D," Marie giggled in a flirty voice placing both her hands between smarter Ed and caging him in as Double D nervously smiled trying to ease the situation "Uh greetings Marie ye-yes it has been a long time almost a year to be exact we-we haven't seen you guys since 7th grade we were wondering about your whereabouts for a while," hopefully they won't cause trouble May meantime sweetly walked up to Ed "hi Big Ed you really gotten taller haven't you?" She replied in a non-threatening voice surprisingly showing no signs of aggressive love-struck hoping to help ease everyone Nazz stepped up to ease the tension "It's quite a surprise to see you guys back in town," as she lightened the mood thankfully it seemed to Kankers seemed to come in peace knowing how strong they are and an aggressively protective of their Eds.
"Well we're here, plus we thought we'd bring a little piece offering in joining the party, I love to catch up on what you guys missed," she reached behind herself calling something from behind her pocket of what the Kankers brought to offer for the party. Revealing a bottle of sparkling champagne peach fizz the good stuff that every teen wanted to try!
This impressed everyone instantly!
"Well I guess you guys can stay but as long as you guys don't cause any trouble in my place okay otherwise my old man will have a cow," Kevin offered knowing deep down he still had a fear of the sisters after what he did to them and his beloved old bike Plus they did help out cul-de-sac and that was cool.
"All right then well what's you waiting for, let's bring some fire to this place and party like there's no tomorrow!" Lee called out as Marie still caging Double D used her fist to hit the stereo and rockin beats hit the room to again as everyone started partying again knowing that the Kankers came in peace though some still a little reluctant and unsure (being mostly Eddy)
During the party (now with the Kankers) Marie had joined Double D against the wall after uncaging him to grab herself an iced root beer popping it open with her hand without using the bottle opener surprising him and a bit impressed as she gave him a link taking a deep drink from her bottle curiosity got the better of him Double D after the question "ahem so Marie where were you and your sisters after we were grounded for a year?" Looked at him with a raised brow grinning like a Cheshire cat that her love muffin was curious about her whereabouts she gave him a simple answer "Went to stay had our old man's place for a while our mom had a big job opportunity but she had to go away for a while so she thought it would be best if we stayed with our dads," this caught Double D by surprise one of the few hints they ever got about the Kankers fathers was the names on their robes "oh so that's what three of you been this whole time?"
She took another swig of her root beer "Yeah but it was a hell of a time not being near Lee and May as we're inseparable due to our dads living in different places but we manage hell I'm surprised you're curious about this Double D," she commented watching as her sisters acted with their Ed and Eddy.
Indeed Double D was as he thought of what to say next but he was interrupted by his phone "Please excuse me, Marie," he apologized checking a text from his Mother.
The text from his Mother saying that something came up and she's going to have to leave again this evening she wants him to know that his friends are free to stay the night with him if he wants, and to remember to lock the door before going to bed and be good while she's gone and that she loves him with the sweet emojis 🤗😚💖 ending it.
As Double D replied to his mother, suddenly Girlfriend by Avril Lavigne started playing in the room "Oh hell yeah me and my sisters love this song come on love muffin let's dance!" Marie shouted grabbing Double D as quickly put his phone away in his pocket at the sudden pull of Marie's 'surprisingly' toned strong arm pulling him to the dance floor! As all the girls started to bounce to the beat!

"🎶Hey, hey, you, you
I don't like your girlfriend
No way, no way

I want to be your girlfriend
You're so fine I want you mine you're so delicious
I think about you all the time you're so addictive
Don't you know what I can do to make you feel alright (Alright...)🎶"
Marie danced around Double D who shyly danced along with her as he observed here on the dance floor quite surprised how much Marie and her sisters had stayed the same yet seemed to have changed quite a lot over the past year as she swung her hips to the beat he noticed how she still had her while blue emo haircut now sporting a magenta high light over her bangs with only one green eye showing that would remind him of the color of fresh green apples or peridot gems decorated hidden behind long eyelashes with dark blue eye-shadow.
Looking up and down he could tell that she shared the same height as him only an inch taller she was wearing torn green pants with her signature pink belt some kind of army black biker boots with fingers black gloves with spiked cuffs and choker along with some piercings? Yes piercings one on her plump bottom lip and one pierced above the brow of her revealing eye who is looking right at him making Double D realize he was staring making him blush a deeper pink as Marie gave him a fox grin and took his hand and gave him a twirl taking the lead as they continued dancing "like what you see Double D," she giggled "well I uh I'm.. I'm.." stuttered trying to find the right words.
"🎶She's like so whatever
You can do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that's what everyone's talking about
Hey hey, you you, I don't like your girlfriend

And even when you look away I know you think of me
I know you talk about me all the time again and again
So come over here and tell me what I wanna hear
Better yet, make your girlfriend disappear
I don't wanna hear you say her name ever again!🎶"
She woke Edd from his thoughts "Huh?" he blushed embarrassed when he felt Marie press herself against him feeling muscle underneath her body he could tell she was carrying a faint six-pack as Double D realized much to his revelation he did kind of likes her new look.
"🎶 Hey, hey, you, you
I don't like your girlfriend
No way, no way

At the wall Eddy is trying to keep away from Lee while watching Ed and Double D nervously dance with May and Marie the smartest set on his own while Sarah and Jimmy try to keep Ed calm and keep her big brother safe from May who's giving the tallest Ed big puppy dog eyes as she bounced around him on the beat of the music.
"What’s the matter little man cat got your tongue heh," Lee chuckled taking a sip of root beer.
Eddy scoffed at the tall redhead Kanker "Pfft I have anything to say to you Lee, I don't know why you girls always mess with me with Ed and Double D even when you guys have been gone for a year your still after us," noticing her grin Eddy just realized got him talking without even trying "crap," he mumble as Lee continued to grin "heh," taking another swig of her root beer "what can I say you our boys' little man we got our reasons for liking you a lot and besides we weren't going to let those teens hurt our boyfriends otherwise they would have had it way worse if we hadn't captured them if they got to you first," that caught Eddy off he did remembering how when the Kankers arrived just as he was about to knock on his Bro's door with grabbing/kissing him announcing how their queens in shining armor have a ride and how they went out of their way to rescue them from the teen's wrath.
Lee seemed to read what he was thinking as he let out a "fair point."
She replied with a smirk as Eddy added "Well, I guess it was kind of badass you and your sisters were ready to rescue me in the boys so thanks Lee I guess,"
He mumbled that last part.
Suddenly another song started blasting Pink's classic So What and the girls went crazy in the dancing Lee asked Eddy a question he probably wanted to hear "No problem little man by the way would you want to know what happened to that pathetic Big Brother of yours?"
Now that got Eddy's attention! The last time he saw him Bro was knocked unconscious after he was slammed with/into the door. He completely forgot about him after the celebration of him and the guys finally being in the group and the teens accepting them.

Louie and Gosalyn, maybe?? I always wanted to see their dynamic :D
I love these two they're so devious, I had to write the start of their friendship
Send me asks pairing two of the Ducktales good guys and I will write a short fic with them interacting. Not for Ships. Based on this post.
Fic below:
"Dewey's not here today," Louie said, having opened the door to reveal a very serious, expectant looking Gosalyn.
"Shoot. What about Huey?"
"No, they're all off on a thing." Another adventure that Louie had just narrowly avoided.
"Even Webby?"
"Mm-hm."
"What about your ghost butler?"
"He does what he wants. What's up?"
"Nothing."
"Oh come on, I'm not even your last resort? That's offensive. I thought we were friends."
"Name one time we've hung out."
Louie opened his mouth.
"Webby's birthday party doesn't count."
Louie closed his mouth, sulking a little.
"I am just as good as Huey or Dewey," Louie insisted.
"What about Webby?"
"I'm not delusional, but she's not here so take it or leave it."
Gosalyn let out a frustrated sigh.
"Fine."
"No need to be grateful or anything. What's the problem?"
"I think my dad- er, Drake, is being scammed. I want to give the scammer a taste of their own medicine."
Louie's eyes lit up. He loved scamming scammers. This would be the perfect way to kill an afternoon.
Twenty minutes later they had set up a war room in the den, beginning to pull up everything they could on this con artist.
"Oh, I've dealt with this loser before. His schemes are so see-through, how is your dad falling for these?"
"Drake is an excellent hero and he's very smart in very specific areas. But he's not always the sharpest in the business sense."
"Well then he needs someone like us. Let's destroy this fool."
They made short work of it from there, another scheme becoming apparent to Louie as the pair celebrated their victory with popcorn and cans of Pep!
"You knew the others weren't here today, didn't you?"
"Maybe."
"You knew I'd only help you if I thought you didn't want my help. I can't believe I fell for that."
"To be fair, I think I was pretty convincing."
Louie drew a business card from his hoodie pocket.
"Louie Inc. is always looking to hire sharp minds like you."
"Maybe we could become friends before we become business partners?" Gosalyn suggested.
"Alright, alright. Do you like Ottoman Empire?"
"I've never seen it."
Louie's eyes widened in surprise and excitement.
"You're going to love it."

I started and got caught up on Playboyy. I'm having such a good time with most of this show. Is it the best? Absolutely not. Am I still having a good ass time? Hell yeah. I value entertainment over ~quality~ and I am Very Very Entertained. I'm having a blast with all but two of the couples and really only don't care about 1 dude fully. So that's exciting to me.
These were my thoughts while watching episodes 1-6.
I'm only 20 minutes into the show but why do they want Zouey to get laid so badly? The boy does not seem to be into it and it's really not a good look for them so far. Just let him jerk off. That's not a bad thing y'all.
Dude is Zouey jerking off in class? What is going on here. There's like only three people in this class??? Is this why his friends want him to get laid cause this is like. Bro you can't be so horny you're jerking off in your art class.
NOT GETTING A FOOD DELIVERY NOTIFICATION WHILE TRYING TO GET A NUT. Been there girl, been there. Oh this "pizza man" is fine too. Listen. I've personally never blown my pizza delivery man but, you know, I support this blond one in his journeys.
NOT FIRST TALKING TO HIS DAD WHILE HE'S WATCHING HIS OWN SEX TAPE WITH HIS HOOKUP RIGHT THERE. MY DUDE. AT LEAST MUTE THE VIDEO???
Why is this slightly villainous music playing over this young man's entrance? OH MY SHIT. He really just said "you wouldn't get me being sad about my dead mom cause you don't have one." Is he actually any of their friends cause that is FOUL to say to your friend. Oh well he's the Evil Twin of Nant. Alright. That makes sense. I'm here for that. Explains that foul ass sentence. lol
Oh did he just take one of his rings? Or was that his ring? I'm looking at EVERYONE with suspicion in this show right now. Except First. I don't know why but he doesn't give me shady at all. And possibly Zouey. His reaction to "Nant" was very weird but I appreciate him not being into being touched even though he's horny. Because same.
These Japanese porn voiceovers. Serving hentai realness. I think I can vibe with this. Like it's very much a mood. I'm not sure what mood, but it's a mood.
OH MY GOD. SEE ALL MEN DO IS LIE. I knew Soong stole that ring! And now Zouey's hookup is like "I just wanna fuck a virgin." Oh I hope all these men get dick rot.
-
WIT. I don't know what his name is here but he was Wit on The Sign so it's good to see him! He's cute.
"They didn't build this body to fuck granddads and sluts." That was the greatest line I've ever heard. I want that on my tombstone.
Nont is bombing at this with Zouey and First. Babe you're gonna have to tell them who you are. Cause it's been two days and it's not working. You're not nailing Nant at all and I don't even know Nant.
Zouey it's RICH of you, wealthy even, to tell First he can't have a relationship if it started out with sex. Mr "if sex and love go hand in hand, I'm willing to try." When both of y'all are getting played. The call is coming from inside the house.
Not First fucking Soong on the railing on the stairwell in his daddy's house. My god. We do so love a baby slut.
So does Soong just wanna steal? Cause he's like I'm scamming a rich kid but baby he wants to be your sugar daddy. Don't fuck up that with stealing when he's freely offering it??? That's just dumb.
Is this man serious? After two weeks he's like "first I just wanted his virginity but now I'm starting to like him." ALL MEN DO IS PLAY GAMES.
Yes at the body painting! Giving me J'ai Tue Ma Mère realness except they're not fucking in this scene, but still giving me that same vibe.
Did Jump really get manhandled by Porsche one time and now he's just jerking off at work moaning his name? Baby.
Nont is such a bitch. "This guy looks poor, how could he transfer money to Nant?" I think I love him.
Not Mirror!Nant in Nont's head being like "just pretend to be me, you'll grow to like BDSM too." SIR. But then not two seconds later he's getting spanked and is like "oh okay, you do like this." I guess Mirror!Nant in Nont's head knew him after all.
Not this man just laying down on the bedroom floor, hardwood at that, for the aesthetics of it all. I already love Nont. So much.
Porsche is so so aggressive but you know what? It seems like Jump likes it so I mean? If he likes it, I love it.
First's dad is a doctor and he was roleplaying as a doctor? Oh. That's like several layers of shit that maybe he should go to therapy for. My beautiful little baby.
WHAT. DID MY BABY JUST GET KIDNAPPED BY SOONG.
-
I should have known these freaks (affectionate) would be into CNC. I love it for them.
Soong really is out here resisting being a sugar baby. First wants to give you things, but you're stealing, he wants to extort his dad for money, but you said no. Babe. Babes.
Oh is this dude smelling underwear too? Cause that's what Captain's into right? Well there's a lid for every pot!
Okay. So. I like Soong and First, and the actor playing Soong is really hot but he's either not a good actor or he's really not into First and I don't know which it is. Cause these expressions he has when they're banging aren't giving into it. Or well that's why. He's not into it. Baby is tired from working and then First wants to bone and just wants to apparently chill with First. Aww.
Why did Soong just see Nant??? What the fuck is going on.
Listen. I like Zouey and I guess Nont could be nicer, but if someone doesn't want to talk and you keep pushing and physically get in their space, you earned that hit. Read the room baby.
Okay Zouey you're just an asshole. "I won't say I told you so but I did." Meanwhile your man is also playing you and a sex worker, so most likely hooking up with other dudes too.
I knew Keen and Captain were fucking before that locker room scene! You can't drop a line about a dude liking to smell underwear than have another dude smell the first dude's underwear he took from his locker and not had them banging before. And that was after being like "fill this shot glass with cum" and being like DO YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND. And both those things were in front of people. Keen please.
Is Zouey gonna safe word out? Cause he said stop but didn't safe word. Teena just upset me there. "Just the tip" and "if we're gonna date we have to have sex." He has a point about Zouey not using the safe word, but dude it's his very first time ever. He's not gonna remember safe words. Zouey, I love you and he's right. Teena said they didn't need to have sex to be a couple but now he's like we can't be a couple if we're not having sex. And I get them both here cause Teena clearly likes sex and Zouey clearly doesn't want to have it yet, so that's a big issue in a relationship.
Oh damn. First, you're my baby, but it wasn’t nice to call Soong a leech because, quite frankly, with the exception of stealing your ring, he's not leeching off you. OMG DID HE JUST COME HOME AND THINK FIRST WAS STILL GONNA BE THERE DID HE REALLY THINK THEY JUST HAD A COUPLE FIGHT AND WOULD MAKE UP. Oh my GOD.
OH MY GOD. Captain showed the team the tape with Keen. What a complete asshole move. But also. Babe. Did you really think showing them a clip of Keen fucking a dude, you being the dude, would just make them think it was only him who was gay? You dumb bitch. lol
They DO NOT actually believe Zouey is a girl cause he has a wig on? I cannot. Also. Captain. You have the AUDACITY to text Keen after the stunt you pulled??? If men have nothing, they'll still have the audacity. And Puen I mean, thanks for riding in for Captain's imaginary girlfriend, we love a man who respects women, but you didn't give a shit when he recorded Keen and showed everyone.
Keen and Soong do not want to be jerking each other off. Neither of these men are touching the dicks they actually want to be touching.
"Don't fall in love with a client. But I don't know if I think of him as a client." And then there's Teena just looking devastated too. Both of you went and caught feelings for your marks.
Side note. I'm crying at them working out in their underwear.
Oh my gosh. Soong's face when First texted him. The man is down bad. OH MY GOD. Can this tattooed man shut the fuck up. He doesn't even know this situation. My god. How can you see, someone you call, a friend's face when he got a text from a boy and say all that shit. I don't care how nice your titties are. Just cause you're a bitter jaded hag doesn't mean everyone needs to be.
And now First is crying on Soong's chest and Soong is trying hard not to cry himself and everything is dicks. Hope you're proud of yourself TATTOOED MAN.
BEAT HIS ASS ZOUEY. BEAT. BOTH. OF. THEIR. ASSES. I wish we had seen the fight. Because I personally needed to see Nont get punched in the face. I mean, technically he's just trying to see what happened to his brother. But he still was macking on Zouey's kinda man and like nah. We don't do that. I needed to see that punch.
Captain. You don't need to be here. With your trifling ass selling people's sex tapes and shit. lol
Oh yay. I'm glad Porsche and Jump are still here being nasty. I missed them.

I mean, okay. Like. None of what Nant went through is the friends fault though? Asking your friends for 100k is A LOT. Like ethically Captain selling his videos was shitty, but Nant didn't have to make them. And I don't even register Porsche threatening to kick him out for banging his brother cause you don't bang your homie's brother. Like. That's bro code!
And I won't even touch the "they got him addicted to drugs" cause no. No one can do that. You can give people free drugs but they're the ones who initially decided to take them, for whatever reason. And I'm an addict so I'm not judging or anything. Just saying.
Captain is just a whole mess. "Have you never done anything illegal?" Baby most people are not out here committing crimes. lol
I'm sorry it takes me out how so many of these shows ask questions like "are you mixed" and shit. Like. Okay. Now we're getting into some complex ethnic situations I don't know about in countries I’m not from but it just always makes me pause.
LEAVE MY MAN ALONE. He is not responsible for Nant using drugs, Nont. Nant took them himself. You need to accept that. Also, the person in the dog mask was shirtless, right? Can't First tell that wasn't Soong in the video cause his tattoo wasn't there.
Soong wanting to kill Nant for taking all his drugs is the most addict ass behavior ever and I'm sad but here for it cause that rarely gets portrayed. Because yeah, it do be that serious when someone blows your stash.
Nont's trying to find his brother, with the others offering suggestions of various levels of helpful, and First is just crying over Soong. I get it though. I'd cry over that man too.
I appreciate Jump weighing the options of Porsche sending him to jail or continuing to only fuck Porsche and going "fuck it, I'll risk jail." You really bobbled that one Porsche cause he seemed into it at first.
Okay I didn't really care about Nuth and Phop, but with one sex scene and the scene after, they got me. Yes that necklace is Nant's and Nuth probably killed him, but he could have given it to Phop and possibly set him up to be framed and he was like NO instead. So I do think he has feelings for Phop. I just don't think that's gonna go well for Phop in the end.

NOT FIGGING GETTING MENTIONED.
What is the status of Captain and Keen's relationship? I don't understand it. It makes no sense. Compels me though.
Like I'm sorry I just don't care about Aob and his storyline. Maybe I will, but so far as he has going for him are his tattoos and dope ass titties and you know what? I have those too so those just aren't enough for me. 💁♀️💁♀️💁♀️
I also still don't care about Prom and Nont. Like. I love Nont and I love him trying to find his brother, but I just don't think everyone needs to be bae'd up in this show. There's too many cooks in the kitchen okay. There's too many carrots in this stew!
Not First brandishing a knife at all the couples and Soong just walking in like babe put that knife down, you're embarrassing yourself.
Speaking of embarrassing yourself, Keen just embarrassed his whole lineage with that question fully targeted at Captain. I love him.
Nont! You went right to asking about fucking in masks. NOT PROM JUST LOOKING RIGHT AT JUMP FOR THAT ANSWER. See I don't trust Prom and that is why I do not vibe with him and Nont. I don't think he had anything to do with Nant’s disappearance, but I still don't trust him.
Keen is down so bad for Captain and it's very embarrassing. Like. My dude. He doesn't seem to want to claim you. You might just need to let him go baby. It’ll either get you claimed like you want or at least make you free to start the healing process and moving on.
This crack ass idea of playing drinking games to do their investigatory journalism. I cannot.
Why do they keep having Soong and First speaking in English? I love them flexing those bilingual skills but is there a backstory to this? Or are they just like "fuck it, we have two bilingual actors, let's do it."
Aww they're just talking about First. Soong really is into him. It's been six episodes and I'm so messed up over them. 😭😭😭
I mean...it's not gaslighting? Soong has long since stopped thinking of First as a mark. It's not his fault Aob ran his fucking mouth about shit he didn't know anything about.
THANK YOU SOONG for telling Zouey Teena only wanted him cause he was a virgin. Zouey's out here throwing a lot of stones and talking shit like his man also wasn't being shady as hell. I don't think that's gonna go anywhere, but I'm glad it got brought up.
I just realized that they're playing 7 Minutes In Heaven with Porsche and Prom and like, they're brothers? And aren't they the last two to be picked? That’s gonna be awkward. Plus it's not like Porsche can fuck answers out of Prom. Cause that's his brother.
I appreciate that Captain was the one they picked to get the answers out of Keen cause it could have been Nont. But I like to believe that wasn't even considered cause that’s Captain’s man even if he won't fully claim him.
Oh so wait Porsche and Prom aren't actual brothers? They're just under the same sugar daddy? But Prom isn't even fucking their sugar daddy? And is only protected cause he's Porsche's brother? But they're not actual brothers? Then what kind of brothers are they? Just what the fuck is going on here. I am so confused by these two and their relationship. But I am intrigued.
...so Nuth just killed Phop? Oh, no, he didn't. Sis is just CRAZY CRAZY. Oh so he did kill Nant? But he doesn't want to actually kill Phop? He chose to jerk off with a camboy instead of killing Phop. That's gotta count for something? It's progress!
NUTH. Your account is literally your name. Babes. Even if you didn't kill his twin brother, your username is your name. I would say he's not the smartest but he's also just crazy so that probably factors into it. He'e struggling with his grasp on reality right now so that probably explains so much.
Oh Phop. Baby. You gotta get out of there. Phop. He's killed at least one person, most likely. Phop. He fantasized about killing you. Phop. He just jerked off with the twin of the brother he probably killed and put his apartment number in the frame. PHOP.
See. They actually have the best vibes to their sex scenes to me and I just don't see this ending well. At all. And I'm already sad.
#playboyy#playboyy the series#I don't care about Nont&Prom's relationship#and I don't care about Aob so I don't care about his relationship with Puen either#but everything else is fun for me#regular clyde
