i just read your taesan and myungjae sub fics and OMGGGGGGâŠ.. iâm about to rip my hair out those were so goodđđ CAN I PLEASEEE request a LEEHAN SUB FIC đđ whereâs heâs just absolutely down bad for the reader PLSSS
heck yes!!! i haven't been really in the mood to write full fics lately, so im just gonna put down some ideas?? and maybe i'll turn it into something later!! if you want somethin abt leehan edging himself, lmk and i'll write it for you!!
* I'm ofc thinking roommate!leehan who acts indifferent to you but is actually obsessed with you, like his crush on you runs sooo deep
* sometimes you walk past him and he gets a whiff of whatever fragrance you have on, something so sweet it almost makes his head hurt, and he's immediately addicted to the smell. when you're not home, he sneaks in your room and steals something from your hamper -- a tshirt, a hoodie, anything with your scent baked into it
* he does unholy things to himself with his face buried in whatever fabric he could get his hands on, and later, when you ask him if he's seen these things, his poker face is so good you don't even second guess him
* but that isn't enough, and soon, he needs more. you guys begin building a closer friendship, and he's always been flirty, but he also becomes more handsy, giving you backhugs and shoving his face in your neck, he can't help himself, the scent is so much stronger straight from the source
* one day when you're out, he's so desperate for release that he finds himself in your bed, head buried in your pillow as he fucks the mattress pathetically. his pants are pulled down just low enough so that he can rub his dick against the soft fabric of your duvet, and the feeling has his eyes rolling back into his head. your scent is so strong in your room, hitting him from all corners, and he's so lost in the pleasure that he doesn't hear you enter
* you call out his name but he doesn't hear you, so you walk over to him and tap his shoulder. you're standing with your arms crossed and your hip out. you haven't even said anything, but your unamused facial expression has him feeling so needy, and the embarrassment of being caught makes his skin hot all over, and he's soaking your blankets with his cum before he can stop himself
* post-nut clarity has him apologizing profusely, immediately, but he's stunned with you press a finger to his lips to shush him.
* your own fantasies about leehan have often drifted from family-friendly, so you push him back against the bed and straddle him. after all, he's been so naughty, doesn't he deserve a punishment?
â§ïœ„ïŸ: *
a/n : bbbg leehan overstim fic when???

More from Game Informer: ''A Deep Dive Into Dragon Age: The Veilguardâs Combat, Abilities, Skill Tree, And More''.
The article contained new screenshots of skill trees - one for Level 30 Warrior Rook, one for Level 30 Mage Rook, one for Level 30 Rogue Rook, and one showing the 'pop up info' for the skill Wall of Fire. Going by these screenshots, the 3 specs for mage Rook are Death Caller, Evoker, and Spellblade. I think this is the first time the three specs for mages are confirmed. I wonder, is "Thorne" this Rook's custom first name, or one of the faction-defined surnames?
Text in last image reads:
"- Large circle: Class - Diamonds: Abilities - Medium circle: Major Passives and Ability Upgrades - Small hexagon: Traits - Small circle: Minor Passives and Stat Boosts"
Other excerpts from the article:
"Every single entry reimagines what combat is like and I would say our goal was to make sure we had a system that allowed players to feel like they actually were able to step into the world of Thedas. They're not a player observing from afar â they are inside of this world. Being this authentic world that's brought to life, the combat system needs to support that, so you are in control of every single action, every block, every dodge, every swing of your sword." [...] "During my demo at one point, we use a sword-and-shield Warrior Qunari that hip-fires and aims their shield to throw it like Captain America while hammering down big damage with a sword" [...] "a Mage's firewall that deals continuous damage" [...] "This extends to companions, who, at your choosing, bring three abilities (of their five total) into combat, executed either with quick select buttons or the pause-and-play combat wheel. Every time you rank up a companion's Relationship Level, you unlock a skill point to spend specifically on that companion â this is how you unlock new combat abilities. This extends to companions, who, at your choosing, bring three abilities (of their five total) into combat, executed either with quick select buttons or the pause-and-play combat wheel. Every time you rank up a companion's Relationship Level, you unlock a skill point to spend specifically on that companion â this is how you unlock new combat abilities. " [...] "Passive abilities unlock jump attacks and guarantee critical hit opportunities, while abilities add moves like firewall and spartan kicks to your arsenal" [...] "Busche says BioWare's philosophy with the skill tree is "about changing the way you play, not the statistical minutiae."Â
-
"If you completely ignore companions in combat, they will attack targets, use abilities, and defeat enemies all on their own. "[Companions] are their own people, "Busche says. "They have their own behaviors, they have their own autonomy on the battlefield, they'll pick their own targets. As their plots progress, they'll learn how to use their abilities more competently, and it really feels like you're fighting alongside these realized characters in battle."" [...] "Busche says there are more explicit synergies, with intentional combos where specific companions can play off each other, and you can queue up their abilities to do just that."
-
"Busche utilizes Veilguard's dual-loadout mechanic. As Rook, you can create two weapon loadouts for quick switch-ups mid-combat. As a mage Rook, she uses magical attacks to add three stacks of arcane build-up to make an Arcane Bomb on a Sentinel, a mechanical set of armor possessed by a demon. If you hit the Sentinel's Arcane Bomb with a heavy attack, the enemy will take devastating damage. Once the Sentinel has an Arcane Bomb on it, Busche begins charging a heavy attack on her magical staff, then switches to magical daggers in Rook's second loadout, accessed with a quick tap of down on the d-pad to unleash some quick light attacks, then back to the staff to finish charging its attack. She then unleashes the heavy attack, and the Arcane Bomb explodes in a liquidy whirl of green magic."
-
""I've seen [Veilguard's combat] refined over time [and] I love it," BioWare general manager Gary McKay tells me. "I love that balance of real-time fluid action, but also the ability to have the depth in the RPG, not just in terms of pause-and-play, but the depth in terms of how you bring your companions into the battlefield. What are you going to do with their skill points? What's the loadout you're going to use? Everything is about bringing Rook to the center of the battlefield, and I love it."Â Former Dragon Age executive producer and Veilguard consultant Mark Darrah feels Veilguard is the first game where the combat is legitimately fun. "What I see in Veilguard is a game that finally bridges the gap," he says. "Uncharitably, previous Dragon Age games got to the realm of 'combat wasn't too bad.' In this game, the combat's actually fun, but it does keep that thread that's always been there. You have the focus on Rook, on your character, but still have that control and character coming into the combat experience from the other people in your party."Â I get the sense from watching Busche play several hours of Veilguard that BioWare has designed a combat system that relies heavily on players extracting what they want out of it. If you want to button mash and use abilities freely when their cooldowns expire, you can probably progress fine (although on the game's easier difficulties). But if you want to strategize your combos, take advantage of elemental vulnerabilities, and min-max companions and Rook loadouts, you can do that, too, and I think you'll find Veilguard rewards that with a more enriching experience."

SVSSS AU where Shen Yuan's younger sister does a villainess transmigration.
The world she ends up in was originally a dating game and visual novel with some light RPG and crafting elements. Playing as purehearted main girl Qiu Haitang, one could choose any number of routes to pursue, from dashing Liu Qingge, to scholarly Mu Qingfang, sexy ice demon Linguang Jun, cute-but-domineering younger half-demon Luo Binghe, and so on. It was an interesting game, though it notoriously inspired some frustration when some of the more interesting side characters (like Yue Qingyuan) were completely unavailable as romantic options, and inspired at lot of rumors about hidden content and demands on future DLC expansions.-
Shen Meimei hadn't particularly liked the game. Sure, she played every route to 100% completion, bought all the extras, the official soundtrack, and the merch (fanmade as well as what slim-pickings existed officially), but that shouldn't be mistaken for approval. Much of that was in fact a desperate quest to figure out what the hell was even going on! Ignore the play time listed for this scathing Steam review, everyone! It shouldn't be factored into any assessments!
The game had several problems, in Shen Meimei's opinion.
The main issue was the lack of follow-through on the buildup of the backstory. Qiu Haitang's whole family was killed one night, maybe-probably by her sketchy as fuck ex-fiancee, who was also a hostage being kept by the Qiu family as leverage against a rival family. Which begged so many questions! Shen Meimei had suspected all along that there was more to it than met the eye (not just because the evil family shared her surname) but it was never deeply delved into. The whole thing only even got resolution in some of the routes, and the most thorough was Luo Binghe's. Luo Binghe had a huge vendetta against Shen Qingqiu, Haitang's sketchy former fiance, which left a lot of room for doubt about his investigating the issue. Was Shen Qingqiu really to blame? Or was Luo Binghe just taking advantage of an opportunity to pin SOME crime on him, since he couldn't really get him for the shit he actually did to Luo Binghe himself? What about the hints regarding that Wu Yanzi guy? Why did those never seem to amount to much? Were the Qiu family really stupid enough to betroth their only daughter to a hostage, or was something else going on? And what about Xiao Qi, the slave boy servant of the Qiu who was mentioned a few times as another possible survivor or witness, but who never comes up again?
Shen Meimei played through everything, certain that there had to be some way to actually solve or gain clarity on the Mystery of the Qiu Family Murders, but even after completing the main routes and unlocking and completing the hidden ones -- nothing! It was all just swept aside in favor of tepid romance arcs, made all the more insufferable because of the compelling subtext between the male love interests. Like, why were any of these guys even interested in Haitang when they so clearly had more going on with each other?
Annoyance over a game Shen Meimei lost too many hours of her life to was one thing, of course.
Transmigrating into the younger sister of notoriously sketchy ex-fiance Shen Qingqiu was another!
Bad news: in the routes where Shen Qingqiu is prosecuted for his crimes, his whole family goes down with him. So if this goes poorly, not only will he be punished, but so will Shen Meimei!
Worse news: this fictional version of her family is almost identical to her actual real family. To the point where she would be checking everyone else for transmigration, except that no one but her seems aware that anything is odd. Shen Qingqiu acts exactly like her older brother, right down to his particular flavor of prickly social behavior and cynicism. And their middle brother is a chronically ill nerd who hate-reads trash novels and is completely fascinated by weird monsters (a much more worrisome trait in a world that actually has a lot of those...)
In short, her life is on the line, and so is her family's!
Damn you, Veiled Heroine Games! If you hadn't abandoned so many plot threats, Shen Meimei might actually know what was going on and be able to neatly circumvent everything! But now she has to figure out how to win the protagonist back over, rescue her brothers, and solve (and possibly further cover up...) the mysterious Qiu family murders, all while keeping Luo Binghe away from Shen Jiu, and preventing Qiu Haitang from completing any of the romance plotlines that will cause troubles for them! Which is most of them!

What's your ideal type?
Summary: What would be the best traits for their potential partner to have?
A/N: I didn't want to leave Ortho out of the series even though I only write platonic relationships with him, so I wrote about his ideal friend instead. Enjoy!
Characters: Ignihyde dorm: Idia x GN!Reader (romantic), Ortho and GN!Reader (platonic)
Other parts of the series: Heartslabyul, Savanaclaw, Octavinelle, Scarabia, Pomefiore, Diasomnia
Warnings: minor chapter 6 spoilers
By opening the document, you agree to Mx Tattly's terms of source confidentiality.
-ËËâââââââââââââââââââââââââââ
Idia's ideal type would be...
Someone who is a bit of a geek. Idia is a geek, there's no denying that. And while he'd be able to get along with someone who isn't, he'd feel seen by a fellow geek. Who else will be able to understand his passion for his games? Or for making Ortho the most elaborate gears?
Someone who takes things slow. Being a shut-in for so long, he hasn't had a lot of social interactions, so everything regarding relationships is very new to him. But don't be mistaken, Idia is not a genius for nothing: If you nudge him in the right direction and encourage him on the way, he'll unlock your secret ending for sure.
Someone who doesn't make fun of him for his anxiety. Idia's anxiety makes him jumpy, stuttery and, quite frankly, a mess. To put salt on the wound, enough people have mocked him for his need to use his tablet in order to communicate sometimes. He's used to it, really. But if you show him that he shouldn't be used to it and hold his hand, he'll be flabbergasted: but it will eventually turn into gratitude.
Someone who doesn't resent his responsibility. Idia has a lot on his shoulders: every day he has to carry his grief, his responsibility, the Island of Woe and STYX's expectations for the future. It's a great burden, but while he doesn't expect people to just accept his circumstances, he'll be surprised is you sneak yourself next to him to lift some of that weight.
ăâąâąââąâąă
Ortho's ideal friend would be...
Someone who would play games with him all night. Not unlike his brother, Ortho's had very limited experience with social life, but he's still hopeful that there's someone out there who is willing to play the Twisted Wonderland equivalent of Mario Kart for a whole night, while they playfully accuse him of cheating on the game.
Someone who doesn't deny his help. He has various add-ons that were originally added for Idia, but Ortho's search for being helpful is not limited to his brother. If you, for example, get a scratch and don't immediately ask for his help, you'll get hit with his puppy eyes (also installed by Idia).
Someone who is curious about him. Ortho is used to the curious eyes of other people when they see him in various gears, but no one really asks him about them outside of the Ignihyde members, and even thwy have their restraints. If you want to ask, just do it. He'll use it as an opportunity to brag about his brother's amazing work. He won't expect the questions you ask about him to get to know him better, however, but he'll still amswer happily.
Someone who is willing to befriend his brother. In all of his short life, he's always been seen as a package deal with his brother. While he's still figuring out who he is outside of his aid to his brother, he will draw the line at someone who won't try to get along with Idia too. He can't fault an incompatibility of personalities, but effort matters to him.

There are many things that frustrate me with the writing of Annabeth in the PJO TV Show, but I think one thing that I havenât seen people talk much about is the mini-arc of Percy needing to help Annabeth with her sense of fun/humanity.
Just so weâre clear, I absolutely hate this arc.
Prior to the showâs premiere, I believe there was a quote from Rick discussing new-ish things that weâd see in the show, and one of those things was Percy helping Annabeth âtap into her humanityâ. I canât find the exact quote, but it should be on the series update Twitter account if you search it.
When I first read this quote, I wasnât exactly sure what it meant, but I thought maybe weâd get an expansion of the theme of forgiveness that we got in the original books, or maybe weâd get an arc about Annabethâs pride and how that gets in the way of her relationships with others. Or maybe theyâd try and break down the ways in which Annabeth helps to uphold the godsâ ways of doing things, and align her more with the mortal point of view (which they essentially did, but not the overall point).
What I certainly wasnât expecting was for them to strip Annabeth of most, if not, all of her smaller/softer traits, and give her this unusually stoic and stiff personality, where she suddenly has no familiarity with casual aspects of the mortal world (movies, Disney world, common idioms), and needs Percy to introduce these concepts to her in an effort to âunlockâ her humanity.
What.
The.
Fuck.
Words cannot emphasize enough how much I despise this arc. Not only is it entirely nonsensical for Annabeth not to be familiar with these things (she was with her dad at least until the age of 7 and she goes to a camp full of other children who are regularly in contact with the mortal world; do you seriously expect me to believe that at no point in her 12 years of life, she never saw a single film, heard of Disneyworld, or heard common idioms and slang terms from her camp-mates? Seriously???)
But ALSO!
Book!Annabeth had PLENTY of humanity to go around! Even with her pride and initial coldness towards Percy, she plays hackeysack with him and Grover on the first day of their quest! She has a cute silly crush/admiration/infatuation on Luke. She nerds out big time over the St. Louis Arch! Sheâs the first to steal clothing from Waterland! She screams and cries when she encounters the mechanical spiders! She has an expression of sadness when she shares her backstory about Thalia and Luke! She gets lost in her little construction game at the Lotus, so much so that Percy has to use her phobia to pull her out of the trance! She grabs Percyâs hand when they first enter the Underworld because sheâs scared! She tears up when itâs time to leave Cerberus!
And you stripped her of all these things, because youâre so desperate to overemphasize the Percabeth romance, and you felt that it was absolutely necessary to have Percy educate Annabeth on âunlocking humanityâ??? Why!!!!
Not only did Book!Percy help Annabeth discuss things about bad parents and approaching forgiveness, but Book!Percy already had something important to offer Annabeth: loyalty, trustworthiness, and reliability. You didnât need to take away her already-present traits and wits to convince us that Percy was the type of person she needed in her life, because we can already see what he offers her in the books. So why oh why did you feel the need to give us the silly âtap into your humanityâ arc? Why did you turn her personality into something that it wasnât? Why did you take away her depth just so her character could better serve Percabeth?
I donât even necessarily agree with the criticism that this version of Annabeth feels like it prioritizes Percabeth more, but I can see why people made that complaint. Yâall took away so much of what made this character endearing, because you felt like it was a much bigger priority to have Percy help her unlock humanity than to let her be human prior to meeting him and outside of him. Not only does her personality get shafted, but her relationships with other people get shafted too! Her interactions with Luke are affection-less, she sent Grover off on his own in the Lotus so she could go off with Percy, and I donât even think that she and Chiron interacted once this season; I donât even think she mentioned the part about her calling him to come pick her up after she attempted living at home again!
But donât worry; weâll get plenty of scenes doubling down and tripling down on how Percy is the center of her world now! Yay!

Who's that girl?
Chapter 3: Stuck With You
The trio hangs out for the first time outside the apartment.
logan howlett x reader
TW: language, D&W, mentions of dark backgrounds.
A/N: third chapter!!! this one is really short, sorryyyy...but I'll post another fic as well as a new chapter this week to compensate, I pinky promise!! this explores the trio's dynamic again but do not worry, things are coming đ«Ą alright I'll leave you to it!!
â this fic is inspired by the TV Show New Girl, Wade and Logan aren't Deadpool and Wolverine (no powers/mutant gene etc) but I did take most of their character traits and storyline!!
Masterlist / Previous Part
The sun hung low over the city, casting golden light over the streets. Y/N had spent the better part of the afternoon wandering around her new neighborhood. It had been a week now, and between settling down and work she hadnât had the time to walk around the streets. Wade had recommended a few places that he thought she would like. She strolled through narrow alleys and wide streets, passing cafes, small bookshops, and one bustling market. There was also this cute park a few blocks down where she stayed for lunch. It was all new, yet there was something comforting about this quiet exploration.
She hadn't quite figured out how to navigate the subtle rhythm of her new lifeâ but she would managed. Everythingâs going to be okay, she reminded herself.
When the evening chill began to creep in, she made her way back to the apartment. She was looking forward to spending time with Logan and Wade; the three of them had started to form an unexpected bond. As she climbed the steps to the apartment, she wondered if they were home yet. She could already imagine Wade cracking jokes, Logan rolling his eyes, and her somewhere in between, soaking up the dynamic. She already loved them so much.
The second she unlocked the door and stepped inside, Wade's voice boomed from the kitchen.
" And she returns!" He leaned against the counter, grinning. « So? How was your little solo adventure?".
Y/N smiled, closing the door behind her. "Amazing. I visited all the places you recommended and Iâm definitely going back as soon as possible". Wade pumped his fists in victory with a little "Yes!", which made Y/n smile even more.
Logan appeared in the living room, a faint smirk playing on his lips. "You got lost?"
"Only once or twice," she admitted, tossing her bag onto the couch. "But it's nice around here. I loved the parkâ I might check it out more later this week."
Wade clapped his hands together. "Perfect. Now that Dora the Explorer is back, we can finally head out to the bar. My set starts in an hour." His eyes sparkled mischievously. "And you're both coming, right? Because what's a gig without my loyal fan base?"
Y/N grinned. « I canât wait! »
Logan just shrugged but nodded, clearly used to Wadeâs antics. "Yeah, alright. Letâs go."
âââ
The bar had a laid-back atmosphere. Dim lights flickered over dark wooden tables, the low hum of conversation mixing with the occasional clink of glasses. They found a booth near the stage, a perfect spot to watch Wadeâs performance later.
Y/N slid into the booth, Logan following after her while Wade grabbed drinks from the bar. She glanced around, taking in the crowd. People were laughing, chatting, and enjoying the night.
"This place is cool," she commented.
Logan nodded, leaning back in his seat. "Wade performs here a lot. Thinks heâs the star attraction."
She laughed. "Well, I guess weâll find out tonight."
A moment later, Wade returned with drinks, setting them down on the table. He plopped down on the seat across from them, a wide grin on his face. "Alright, Y/N, prepare yourself for the best comedy set youâve ever seenâ or, well, at least the best one youâll see tonight."
Y/N grinned. "No pressure."
They sipped their drinks, the conversation starting off light. Wade was in his element, cracking jokes about the people around them, the bartender, the state of the world. It was easy to laugh with him, the energy infectious, and even Logan cracked a few smiles in between his usual deadpan responses.
As the night wore on, Wade excused himself to get ready for his set, leaving Y/N and Logan alone at the booth.
"You think heâs nervous?" Y/N asked, watching Wade walk toward the stage.
Logan shrugged. "If he is, he hides it well."
They shifted their gazes to the stage as the lights dimmed, and Wade took the microphone.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Wadeâs voice boomed through the speakers. "Give it up for me!" He winked at the crowd, earning a round of laughter.
"But seriously, thanks for coming out tonight. I hope youâre all ready to laugh, because Iâm in desperate need of some validation!"
Y/N and Logan laughed along with the rest of the audience, Wade launched into his set, his energy filling the room. He was goodâbetter than Y/N had expected. His jokes were sharp, his timing perfect, and he knew how to work the crowd. Y/N found herself laughing harder than she had in a while, and even Logan seemed to be enjoying himself.
âââ
After Wadeâs set, the three of them were back at the booth, drinks in hand, a warm buzz from the alcohol and the laughter still lingering in the air.
Wade took a long drink from his glass and leaned back in his seat, satisfied. "Not bad, huh? Iâd say I killed it."
Y/N grinned. "I have to admit, you were pretty great."
"Pretty great?" Wade put a hand on his chest, feigning offense. "Come on, I was spectacular."
"Sure, bub" Logan deadpanned, taking a sip of his beer. "Spectacular."
Wade waved a hand. "Iâll take it."
"It was fantastic, Wade, really." Y/n declared and Wade grinned, before thanking her.
The conversation drifted into the easy banter that had become familiar between them. They teased each other, joked about the people in the bar, and laughed at some of Wadeâs stories from previous gigs. It felt goodâ natural.
At some point, after a pause in the conversation, Y/N found herself staring down at her drink, feeling the weight of the day. She hadnât meant to go there, but something about the nightâ the warmth, the comfort of being with themâ made her want to share more.
"You know, Iâm really glad I found you guys." she said quietly, her fingers tracing the rim of her glass. "I never thought I would ever get along so well with people. I mean, that fast. You really welcomed me into your family and Iâm grateful. So, thank you for that."
Logan and Wade both smiled at her, their expressions softening.
"God, what did I say about making people want to cry?" Wade said, wiping a fake tear from his eyes.Â
Y/n chuckled and joined his act, "Iâm sorry, I need to break some rules too!"
"Too?! What are you insinuating ? Youâre a teacher, you should be ashamed of yourself."
They all laughed before the tone became serious again, "I donât want to talk in Loganâs name, but, I'm going to anywayâ itâs a real pleasure to have you. Like, youâre a perfect roommate. And you survived a whole week with us? I know people who would die just thinking about itâ "
"Okay, thatâs enough," Logan intervened, "but heâs right. Weâre glad to have you too. And if you ever feel like youâre tired of us, please, donât keep it to yourself."
Y/n smiled softly, "Thank you."
They talked again for a while, about their day, their week, anything that would come to mind. Somehow, the conversation wouldnât stop.
Y/N took a slow sip from her drink, her smile lingering but her eyes distant, as if a thought had crossed her mind during the conversation. Logan noticed first, tilting his head slightly.
"Something on your mind?" he asked gently.
Y/N glanced up, offering a small, almost sheepish smile. "Itâs just... talking about being part of your âfamilyââ it got me thinking about mine."
Wade, who had been busy throwing peanuts in his mouth while telling yet another story, paused and looked over at her, eyebrow raised. "Oh, are we diving into family history now? Because Iâve got stories thatâll make your childhood look like Disneyland."
Y/N chuckled but shook her head softly. "No, itâs just... my familyâs complicated." She took another sip, as if to steady herself. "I had a great childhood, really it was perfect. I mean, I know nothingâs perfect and 'normal' doesnât exist, but it was great. Until it wasn't, of course."
Logan leaned in slightly, his expression soft but attentive. "What happened?"
Y/Nâs fingers absently traced the rim of her glass again. "My parents divorced when I was 12, I think? It was a mess. They were fighting over who would keep the children. My brother was already in college and his dream was to leave the country, so, it was only me and my parents. In the end, I would stay at my momâs during the week and my dadâs on the weekend. You know the drill. AnywayâŠ"
Y/N sighed softly. "Even after it was done, they would still fight. And I realized they werenât even fighting to keep me anymore. When I was at my momâs she would only talk bad things about my dad, and vice versa on the weekends, and I felt so lonely. So, itâs kind of like my deepest fear now, to be alone. I mean, I can be alone of course, but to feel like everybody abandoned you and youâre just by yourself? That feeling, well, you made me forget it."
There was a silence for a moment, a contemplative pause. Then Wade spoke, his tone unusually serious. "Yeah. I get that." He glanced at Y/N, then at Logan. "My childhood was... rough. Iâm not going into details but, yeah, I was alone for other reasons. And I still had to go to school and because of what was happening at home I guess I developed my own medicine for that. Humor became my way of dealing with it. I learned that if I could make people laugh, I could hide what was really going on."
Y/N felt a pang of empathy for him. She hadnât expected Wade to open up like that, but it made sense. The humor, the constant jokesâit was his armor, just like she had her own ways of coping.
Logan shifted in his seat, his gaze focused somewhere beyond the table. "Iâve got a brother," he said, his voice low. "Victor. We donât really talk anymore. Havenât in a long time."
Y/N and Wade waited, sensing there was more.
"Things went south with him a while back. We were close when we were kids becauseâŠsome stuff happened, but... yeah." He trailed off, the unsaid heavy in the air.
Wade took a sip of his drink, his usual bravado softened by the seriousness of the moment. "Family, huh? Itâs a mess. But," he added, flashing a grin, « You two? Youâre both stuck with me now."
Y/N laughed, and even Loganâs lips quirked into a small smile. The heaviness of the conversation lifted slightly, but the bond between them felt a little stronger after that. They didnât need to dive deeper right nowâ they all knew the weight of their stories, and that was enough for the moment.
The night carried on, the trio falling back into their rhythm of jokes and teasing, but something had shifted. The laughter was still there, the lighthearted banter, but now it was layered with a deeper understanding.

â© WEEKLY FIC ROUND-UP â©
All the fics Iâve read and really enjoyed in the past week-ish. Reminder: This list features any and all ratings and themes. Please look at tags and warnings on ao3 before reading.
Miraculous Ladybug
Open My Eyes by buggachat
Adrien smiles as he eats breakfast with Nathalie, smiles as he walks through the halls of his new lycée, smiles as people stop him on the street and tell him time and time again what a "hero" his father was.
(Adrien wishes he could've been a hero, too. He should've been. Maybe then his father would still be alive.)
(But he's surviving. Everyone may be treating him as though he were made of glass, but he can still go through the motions, he can prove them wrong, he can still smile.)
âAnd youâre⊠happy,â Marinette spoke carefully, a nervous tilt to her voice, â... right?â
(Adrien has some things to find out.)
DC

or: lex luthor makes bad choices. and then, so does everyone else.
call me cute and feed me sugar by suzukiblu
Tim Drake had absolutely no intentions of ever becoming anyone's sugar daddy when he met Superboy.
This would have worked out better for him if Superboy had ever had an actual legal identity or an actual legal guardian or just . . . literally anything whatsoever in life. Ever. At all.
Just a bank account, even.
how big, how blue, how beautiful by merils
Kon-El is not good with medical settings. One could even say he's quite bad with them. How bad, exactly?
Well, let's put it this way: Very few things in the world can make him scream for Superman to save him.
(Superman will save him. That's what family's for, right?)
Clone Wars
The Kenobi Chronicles by WobblyCat
General Kenobi isn't actually dead. Someone should really tell that to his troopers, though.
Or: The clones under General Kenobi's command have a groupchat dedicated to him. Cody wishes his subordinates weren't so fucking stupid.
SVSSS
Shen Yuan's Forced Shen Qingqiu Redemption Arc by SpicyReyes
The System's OOC function won't unlock all at once - instead, character traits have to be added individually, through quests. This leads to Shen Qingqiu having to jump through endless hoops just to complete enough side quests to unlock the ability to be a decent person - all while avoiding the effects it has on those around him. If only the cheapskate System wouldn't keep changing the cost of point values - he needs to know what the hell Yue Qingyuan told the others about him that makes them all look so sad when he does manage to be nice! He's breaking his back here, can't we just appreciate his work?!
second-hand alibis by nex_et_nox
"All right. Iâm in Proud Immortal Demon Way," he says, once he's had a chance to compose himself again. He sits back up, tossing his stupidly long hair back over his shoulders where it belongs; he is totally calm and ready to grill the System for more information. "Who am I supposed to be?" Please please please don't let it be someone who Bingge violently murders. Though given the fact that he's a man in PIDW, his chances are already skewed, and not in his favor. Ugh. [Bound Role: Shen Yuan, Rogue Cultivator. Weapon: the sword Heng Li. Starting B-points: 100.]
or: Shen Yuan transmigrates as a rogue cultivator, one completely unconnected to any canon characters or events. Right, System? Right?

Tears of Themis and why you should play it
Tears of Themis is a mobile otome game from the company HoYoverse/MiHoYo who brought us the games many know and love: Genshin Impact, Honkai Star Rail, Honkai Impact 3rd and Zenless Zone Zero.
Tears of Themis was released in China in 2020. The game has 4 male leads. The game is a romance game with crime solving elements and is set in the fictional city Stellis in the year 2030. You play as a junior attorney MC who has the code name Rosa (her real name is customisable) and with the MLs you work together to solve crimes and mysteries.
Both the story and characters are extremely well written and itâs a breath of fresh air compared to other otome games. The story is fun, romantic and thrilling. There are times where you will kick your feet in excitement, gripping your phone in suspense and other times where you will shed tears. The game explores multiple romantic genres/tropes and its psychological elements are interesting. Itâs a game for both experienced otome players and those who are new to the genre. It is free to play and itâs rather easy to obtain the story cards you want.
The MC is kind, empathetic, stubborn and intelligent, in other words quite likeable. She is a true girlboss.
The first male lead/love interest you met is Artem Wing, a 29 year old senior lawyer and MCâs partner. He is a calm man who works hard towards his goals. The media calls him an emotional less robot, but that couldnât be further from the truth. With his sometimes awkward demeanour when it comes to his crush (MC) is rather charming.
The second male lead/love interest you met is Luke Pearce, a 24 year old private detective and the owner of an antique shop. He is what one could call a golden retriever with his playful personality and his overprotectiveness over the MC who is his childhood best friend. His enthusiasm is a very likeable trait and itâs easy to get attached to him.
The third male lead/love interest you met is Vyn Richter, the 27 year old famed psychiatrist with two doctor grades and a mysterious past. His intelligence is remarkable and he is a master with his words. Vyn is man of many talents and he is always looking for a way to impress MC. He is rather cunning and has an enigmatic aura which draws you in.
The fourth and last male lead/love interest you met is Marius Von Hagen, the 21 year old heir of a multibillion company and an art student. He is what you may call a playboy with his teasing personality and his charming appearance. He is as all the other love interests extremely intelligent. He loves teasing the MC and itâs hard to say no to his puppy eyes.
The game play
The game consists of a main story with multiple chapters and side stories with the different characters. There are also events.
In order to unlock the different episodes you battle with cards which you can obtain by âpullingâ. The SR and SSR cards each have their own stories. The card battles are easy to get the hang of.
So do like our girl Pela and play Tears of Themis<3

youre dating me! not him! ft. lyneyàżàż âŠcws: est. relationship, otome game (i.e. love and deepspace), rafayel my beloved, jealousy, feminine terms are used but reader is gender neutral, crackpost, lyney is trying to be batman to save chaos from gotham (his brain) and ooc âŠmasterlist
lyney noticed something off with his girlfriend, giggling on their phone and of course, he thinks that youre either chatting away with your own friends or youve picked up a new hobby.
you have plenty of hobbies but you so happen to be invested in fandom culture.
hes well aware of how you read fanfiction on those websites, totally not because he snooped on your phone and accidentally found them. he will admit though that they are pretty well written, and he did steal some of the tropes and some of the pick up lines just to flirt and fluster you.
but you're not intensely reading fanfiction because you don't have the face, the "oh my god???" or "OH MY GODDD..... ?!?!?!?" so clearly, you're playing something else here. but you were being sneaky!
every time he tries to peek over, you hid your screen, turn off your phone. hell, you even invested into a privacy phone screen. although, these signs do sound like cheating. it most definitely is not because well⊠to put it lightly, youâre kind of a loser (affectionate) but its his favorite trait of yours!!!
âŠ
wow.
that sounded more backhanded than he intended.
but he has to solve this mystery before the world falls to chaosâŠ
heâs just going to âborrowâ your phone. he had a plan and everything. he knew exactly what he was going to do. wait until you sleep, unlock your phone and find out your biggest secret at the moment.
but instead, midway of his plan, you had light mode on??? why are you the devil? knowing he was going to sneak onto your phone, you put your themes to light mode. its a sneak attack on his very character!
a bright light burned his eyes as he lowered the brightness because he will power through!! but he was being too loud when he was putting in your phone password.
lyney noticed you were waking up, quickly hiding your phone under a pillow case. as you yawned, you turned on the lamp, peeling open your eyes, ââŠmhmm, hey, lyney why are you up?â
âwell, i couldnt sleep.â he replied back, snaking his arms around you. you laugh,
âis anything keeping you up?â funny you ASK, the joker of his heart !! you shifted in your side of the bed, facing his way. âow, what the hell?â you reached under your pillowcase, âhuh, why is my phone here?â
lyney, sweating, âum, maybe you forgot?â
âits even unlocked!â
âwoww⊠wonder how it got there.â
silence filled the air as the both of you just stare at each other. well, he looked at your eyes with unwavering confidence and a midge of fear and you were straining your half asleep eyes at your boyfriend.
âlyneyâŠâ
âum⊠dont know! okay, fine i did it.â
âif you wanted to know, you can.â you handed him your phone, clearly even more suspicious. not really. he really wanted to get into this dark knight hero guy character.
he swiped through and nothing hut a new game. âoh! dont click thatâŠâ
âwhy?â he clicked on it anyway. he was met with kind of realistic men, painting, winking and other actions. its not as bad as he thought. or even, kind of typical girlfriend behavior.
hearing the theme song, you sighed, rubbing your temples. your tone was embarassed, âi.. its an otome game. i thought it would be weirdââ
you met eye contact with lyney as you nervously laughed. âbecause its a dating simulator.â
âhuh.â
âyeahâŠâ
you could tell he was processing it in his mind. âwait, youre dating me,â
âyes.â
âand youre playing otome games, which is, dating sims.â
âyesâŠâ
âbut youre dating me! not him! ive been feeling neglect lately and you were gone in your prtend world of theseâŠâ he looks at the home screen. âvery attractive suitors while i waste away to our homelife, trying to be better.â
âgood narrative, babe.â
âthank you, i made it on the spot. wait, no, dont distract me!!â he made himself sound serious. âall jokes aside though, im glad it was a game. i thought it was more something serious.â
âsuch as?â
âlike cheating! and i know how that sounds and i know you wouldnât but the way you acted made it seem bad.â
he saw you load in the information he just gave you and you began to apologize. âdont worry, you just have to pay attention to me and i guess, whoever is on âamor and deepabyssâ.â
âsounds like a plan!â

New today on DA:TV from Game Informer, 'Breaking Down Dragon Age: The Veilguardâs Classes And Factions':
"Breaking Down Dragon Age: The Veilguardâs Classes And Factions by Wesley LeBlanc on Jun 25, 2024 at 02:00 PM "As part of the character creation process for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, players will have to select both a class for their player-controlled Rook and a faction. After customizing much of your Rook's body, including things like a Qunari's horn type and material, for example, with the hundreds of options available in Veilguard, it will be time to pick said class. [embedded link to DA:TV reveal trailer] There are three classes to choose from: Rogue, Mage, and Warrior. As the names suggest, each features a unique combat system and plays differently as a result. Though youâll be performing things like light and heavy attacks using the same buttons, what those attacks do varies based on your class. For example, a sword-and-shield Warrior can hip-fire or aim their shield to throw it like Captain America, whereas a Mage can use that same button to throw out magical ranged attacks â read more about the combat of Veilguard in Game Informer's exclusive feature here. Plus, as you spec out these classes and unlock their individual specializations, the differences will only grow even more stark. - The Rogue has access to three specializations. The Duelist is the fastest of the three, with two blades for rapid strikes; the Saboteur uses tricks and traps; and the Veil Ranger is purely range, sniping enemies from afar with a bow. - The Mage can utilize necromancy with the Death Caller specialization; Evokers wield fire, ice, and lightning; and the Spellblade uses magic-infused melee attacks. - The Warrior can become a Reaper, which uses night blades to steal life and risk death to gain unnatural abilities; a Slayer, a simple but strong two-handed weapons expert; or the Champion, a tactical defense fighter. While these specializations don't matter upfront â you class into them via the skill trees you progress through the game â it's nice to see the potential of each class before you choose it."
"For the penultimate step of the character creator, at least during the demo BioWare shows me, players select a faction. The Grey Wardens return, joined by other returning favorites and new additions like the Antivan Crows, the Mourn Watch, the Shadow Dragons, the pirate-themed Lords of Fortune, which is what I chose in my demo for the current Game Informer cover story, and the Veil Jumpers. Each faction has unique casual wear, which is worn in specific cutscenes when the character isn't donning armor, and three unique traits. The Lords of Fortune, for example, gain additional reputation with this particular faction, have increased damage versus mercenaries, and perform takedowns on enemies with slightly less effort. Veilguard game director Corinne Busche says this faction selection, which ties into your character's backstory, determines who your Rook was before, how they met Varric, why they travel with Varric instead of their faction, and more. "The message of The Veilguard is you're not saving the world on your own â you need your companions, but you also need these factions, these other groups in the world," creative director John Epler tells me. "You help them, they help you now.""
"He says BioWare wanted to avoid the trope of needing to gather 200 random resources or objects before helping you save the world. Instead, the team aimed to create factions that want to help you but have realistic challenges and problems in front of them so that narratively, it makes sense why you help them in return for their help when the time comes. "Gameplay-wise â each of our classes has a specialization, and each of them is tied to a faction," Epler continues. "But beyond that, each faction has a [companion] as well as [people we're calling agents, ancillarily] who exist as the faces of these factions. We didn't want to just say, 'Here's the Grey Wardens, go deal with them.' We wanted characters within that faction who are sympathetic, who you can see and become the face of the faction, so that even if there are moments where the faction as a whole may be on the outs with you, these characters are still with you; they've still got your back." [old version of this paragraph] If you find yourself unhappy with your lineage or your class, you can change them using the Mirror of Transformation, found in the main Veilguard hub, The Lighthouse. You can also change your Rook's visual appearance there, too." [new version of this paragraph] If you want to make changes to your character's physical appearance, you can do that with the Mirror of Transformation, found in the main Veilguard hub, The Lighthouse. However, class, lineage, and identity are locked in and cannot be changed after you select them in the game's character creator. [Editor's Note: This article previously stated players can change their physical appearance, class, lineage, and identity using the Mirror of Transformation. That is incorrect as class, lineage, and identity are locked after you first select those. The article has been updated to reflect that, and Game Informer apologizes for any confusion this mistake may have caused.] For more about the game, including exclusive details, interviews, video features, and more, click the Dragon Age: The Veilguard hub button below."

Thinking about a fic where Luo Binghe, post-Abyss but pre-Reconciliation, unlocks some kind of wishing artifact and wishes he wasn't half-demon.
Like there are so many ways that could go?
Option 1, reality warps all the way back to Airplane's first rough outlines. Airplane scraps the initial idea for a fantasy race of demons, and instead goes with the more genre-typical idea of demonic cultivation being a bunch of forbidden/evil styles of cultivation. All the demon characters become human. Luo Binghe finds himself in a version of reality where it's not just him who isn't a demon, no one is.
Option 2, the wish operates on strictly in-universe principles and rewrites only Luo Binghe's own history. Instead of being the child of Tianlang Jun and Su Xiyan, Binghe becomes the actual child of his adopted mother and some unknown sire. However, the plot still requires there be a protagonist born from TLJ and SXY, so now suddenly there is some new, other disciple on Qing Jing Peak who is suspiciously half-demon-like and keeps stealing Shizun's attention!
Option 3, the wish doesn't change anything about Luo Binghe's backstory/origins or the world, but does alter Luo Binghe's winning the genetic lottery so that instead of being a half-demon with evenly split potential, he's a half-demon who inherited zero demon abilities or traits. Shen Qingqiu has a heart attack because suddenly the protagonist is down several very vital advantages to his survival and the power-scaling of the setting is wildly unmanageable now.
Like, they're all good???
