I just came here to say that I liked your reblog of That One Kiddo's post about Anti pro shipper being useless terms. sorry I can't reblog it due to the OP blocking me (to be clear, I don't blame 'em at all for doing that. I am more mad at my own idiocy then them.)
Thank you!
But if I can elaborate on that further, even though I wasn’t really on the internet for a lot of this time, it seems like being an “antishipper” evolved from:
20??-2018 — You ship the things I don’t like so I’m going to be rude to you
2019-2022 — Hey, maybe we shouldn’t write literal CP. I take issue with that
2023-2025 — You ship the things I don’t like so I’m going to be rude to you (but I’m going to prove that your ship is totes problematic so that I have a warrant to be rude)
Yes, if you recreate the plot of Lolita with two anime characters of similar ages to Humbert/Dolores but frame the anime Humbert as a good guy, I think that deserves to be called out and critiqued.
No, I don’t think some rando deserves to get cancelled and labelled a proshipper because they ship Squnkis and Sqwimbo but in a non-canon comic from 15 years ago it’s revealed that Squnkis went back in time and lived from that time which would make him 30 years older than Sqwimbo.
This isn’t me defending people who label THEMSELVES proshippers either, because I think they’re fucking stupid and most of them DO just want to write CSEM under the guise of “muh freeze peach”, but I also find that people who label themselves antishippers will often only ship the most milquetoast things imaginable, usually just what’s been declared canon by the creator of whatever fandom they’re in. And even as a sex repulsed aroace that has no interest in that shit… that sounds like such a boring way to experience fandom? Like obviously one’s a far bigger issue than the other but constantly having to deal with the antiship fandom police if you wanna crackship sounds annoying as fuck
Literally any writer who writes an abusive relationship, by these guidelines, would be a proshipper because they are technically putting the characters in a relationship. Colleen Hoover isn’t a proshipper for writing Ryle and Lily. Vivienne Medrano isn’t a proshipper for writing Valentino and Angel (YES I see you Hazbin criticals, this post isn’t for you). Robert Eggers isn’t a proshipper for writing his interpretation of Count Orlok and Ellen.
I critique Lily Orchard for writing Stockholm because it’s CSEM, not because it’s “proship” content. That would be idiotic.
TL;DR: proshipper is now just a scarlet letter attached to shippers an individual doesn’t like rather than being an accurate label of their beliefs, and moreover, the terms pro/antishipper have such a loose definition that they might as well be useless.

Meet Cute with Logan Would Include... || Wolverine Headcanons
Tumblr media
pairing: logan howlett (wolverine) x mutant!f!reader summary: you're a new teacher at the school and logan is interested in you from your first meeting a/n: i'm admittedly projecting with the fact that reader teaches history but just a little blurb because logan's been on my mind and i need to get work done <33 lmk if you want me to make this into an actual fic!! warnings: none, all fluff
masterlist | inbox | tip jar (ko-fi)
when you first arrive at the school as a teacher (and late blooming mutant) charles introduces you to logan
logan has a typical scowl on his face and glances at you up and down
so you begin to worry that you've worn the wrong outfit or presented yourself poorly and now an infamous wolverine dig is about to be thrown your way
but instead, he takes a puff of his cigar, and looks back at charles
"you have a rule about only recruiting good-looking teachers or something?"
and what an array of relief (and butterflies) do you get from that
"yes, very funny, logan. however, y/n here has a phd. I've brought her on to teach the students"
"yeah? and what's your "gift"?" (mutation)
he has a coy look on his face
"oh logan, that's a bit personal..." you said with faux seriousness. "buy me a drink first."
for the first time, you saw him smile. a chuckle reverberated in his chest.
"fair enough."
after that interaction charles escorted you out of the room but as you went, logan's eyes were trained on you.
intrigued, he took another puff of his cigar and smiled to himself.
on your first night there, once all the children have gone to sleep and all the adults have gone to their own rooms for the night you hear a knock on your door.
and guess who it is?
you hate to admit it but god, does he look so hot and suave standing in your doorway.
logan's hair is in a typical mess and his flannel has a few more buttons undone than it did this morning,
and although he's rough around the edges and not as necessarily openly friendly as the others, he exudes confidence- especially as he leans against your doorframe.
"you said i owed you a drink."
although he takes you to the diviest dive bar in town, you have such a good time.
after a little bit of awkwardness, the two of you found your footing and you end up talking (flirting) for hours
well, in actuality, you do most of the talking but boy does he like listening to you talk and watching your eyes light up while you laugh at some of your own stories
on the way back to the mansion, he opens the car door for you
"thank you."
"don't mention it" (he's blushing a little)
on the ride back he tries to be as smooth as possible, one arm draped over the passenger seat while the other rests on the steering wheel
he keeps taking quick glances at you as you hum along to the song on the radio and even though you just met he's already thinking about how he could get used to this
he walks you back to your room and as much as he wants to make another move (and you do too) he doesn't want to mess up your relationship before its even started
i mean, you're living in the same place?? what happens if you don't like it?? and you end up hating him?? now his suave demeanor has crumbled under the weight of realising this is actually real and not a game
"I'll.. uh... be down the hall if you need me."
"thanks, logan" you smile softly and he thinks its the first time anyone's done that in over a decade and meant it
when he starts walking down the hall, you call out in a whisper
"oh and logan!" you pause. "sweet dreams."
before he can say anything the door of your bedroom shuts
a stupid, silly grin coats his face so big that he rubs his hand across his cheeks in fear anyone would catch the big bad wolverine becoming a softie for the teacher he's got the hots for
although you've just met, you've got him wrapped around your finger and he can barely believe it
shoving his hands in his pocket, logan shakes his head and laughs on the way to his own bedroom
"fuck."

A Final Death
Tumblr media
Pairing: Gale x gn!Tav Summary: Gale has ascended and has returned to his chronically ill lover in order to ascend them, only to realize that they have died while he was exploring godhood. He departs for the Fugue Plane to find their soul and offer them divinity once more. ao3 link A/N: This is inspired by an angst ask I got in my inbox (hi anon!!) but it got so long that I decided to make it its own post. CW: death
Wait for me. Give me time. Soon, I will return with the means to ascend you, and you will never have to fear dying again.
Those were the last words he had said to Tav before leaving them. The sight of them on the docks watching him bow and back away was burned into his mind, even long after ascension. They were stunning in the light of the rising sun. As beautiful as they had ever been, and more.
And oh so fragile. Brittle. Broken. The condition they had maintained so carefully before being taken by the nautiloid had proven taxing, dangerous, even deadly on the road to Baldur’s Gate. True resurrection should have cured it, but it never did, no matter how many times they sought Withers’ help, resurrecting their broken, dead body with true resurrection spells.
A curse, Tav later told him. The nasty result of a hag deal gone bad. Since then, every injury healed wrong. 
The evidence of the curse was staggering. Broken bones that never fused together just right. Bruises that never seemed to fade. Cuts that always seemed only half-healed. A persistent cough that would go away only to be replaced by other pains, other illnesses. A perpetual state of pain, never ending, ever changing, managed only by a careful schedule of potions and healing spells and rest. Some days were worse than others. Some days they felt only the dim pains of a single bruise. But never, not even once, had they admitted to a single pain-free day.
But there was no promise of rest and healing on the road and no end to the fighting. Yet still, they pressed on. Still they fought. Still they endured. Until finally the Netherbrain crashed, defeated, into the Chionthar, and Gale had the means to end their suffering at last within reach. For the first time in months, they could rest.
He hoped the last few months had done them good. That they had found ways to heal and secured the rare, nearly-pain-free day as they waited for him. He had dedicated all of his time in the pursuit of ascension, and then after that, in testing the limits of his godhood. He had to know what he could do, what he was capable of, before he returned. He only had one chance to ascend them. He wanted it to be perfect.
As he materialized outside the Elfsong Tavern room, the one they sometimes shared when he and they longed for a night with just the two of them away from the others, the one his beloved had promised to be in while they waited for him, he wondered what kind of god they would become. Perhaps a god of healing, focusing their efforts on healing spells and potion crafting. Or perhaps they would hate that idea and surprise him. The god of knitting, they might suggest, the most mundane thing possible, or the god of puns, making use of that humor they used nearly every day to cope with the pain. He smiled to himself, remembering their many jokes, as he waved a hand for the door to open on its own.
He stepped inside, dimming his celestial light, only to find the room was quite dark without it. His smile faded as he gazed about the room.
Empty.
No, not empty, he realized, as a figure unfolded themselves from a chair in the far corner. The figure approached, slow and silent, the whisper of their ragged robes the only sound in the room.
“Jergal,” Gale said.
“Well met, young god,” Jergal said. His expression was that same old blank expression, his mouth just shy of a faint smile, and his eyes glimmered in the dark just as they had months ago, back when Gale had been mortal. “Thou come seeking that which is no longer here.”
“I can see that.” He could sense it, too. Though other souls slept, ate, and drank in other rooms beyond this, the only two entities present in that room were himself and the Final Scribe. “Where are they?”
“Gone.”
Gale tried to ignore the flicker of irritation kindling within him. “Yes. I’ve noticed. Gone where?”
“They are where they must be…until they goest where they must go.”
The irritation only grew. Jergal had always been vague, but that was when Gale had been mortal. Now, they ought to speak as gods do, one deity to another. The Final Scribe need not hide divine secrets from the God of Ambition, now that they were equals.
“Fine, if you won’t tell me,” Gale said, “then I shall simply have to find them myself.”
“Thou wilt search these planes for some time, I fear. They are not here. They are…beyond.”
“What do you…”
All at once the meaning came to him. Gone. Beyond. 
Dead.
“That…cannot be,” Gale said, refusing to believe it. But Jergal merely stared, silent. Waiting. Waiting for him to accept it.
Again he refused. He cast his senses wide, stretching out his mental presence far beyond the reaches of the Elfsong Tavern, over the whole of the city, and even further beyond, briefly touching hundreds of souls at a time, seeking, searching, hoping to brush against the soul that had once called to his own. The soul that had been his match. He would know it as soon as he found it, so familiar was it to him, though this was the first time he sought it out as a god.
But there was nothing. Though he felt the first embers of pride, the fanned flames of hungry ambition among dozens of souls, he couldn’t feel the one singular soul that he desired.
They were gone. And he knew, even if he searched the entire surface of Toril, that he wouldn’t find them. Not on this plane.
Tav was dead.
He struggled to find his voice “When?”
Jergal’s gaze softened briefly. “Nigh on forty days past.”
“That long?” he asked. “It can’t be, I was only gone for…” But even as he said it, he knew his estimation would be wrong. Jergal looked sympathetic.
“Time runneth differently when one is immortal,” he said. “As thou well know.”
Again Gale struggled to comprehend the news. Not because he misunderstood—he could see the truth as clear as crystal. Tav was dead, their soul having departed from the mortal plane days ago, and he had missed it. 
That was the part he couldn’t fully grasp. How had he missed the day, the very moment his own beloved had faded out of this life? Their brilliant life, bright as a star in the sky, snuffed so quickly—again. 
He should have felt it. It should have been, to him, the same sort of feeling as losing the light of a single candle’s flame in a vast darkness. Or perhaps a feeling like a chill, a dread, a pit in his stomach. He was divine. He could sense souls in a way he never could as a mortal. He should have felt Tav’s passing.
But he hadn’t. He couldn’t even recall what had been the focus of his attention forty days ago. A single day was like a breath to him. There and gone in a flash. One didn’t count every breath they took in an hour, much less in a day or a week. Had so much—so little time passed without him noticing?
He set aside those concerns for now. “I see,” he said quietly. “That is unfortunate. But it is time to bring them back now, if you would. That is why you’re here, is it not? To resurrect them?”
“No.”
Gale frowned. “No? I don’t understand.”
Jergal was quiet a moment. By the time Gale was certain he would simply refuse to elaborate, he closed his eyes briefly and then reopened them.
“I came to them in their final hour,” he said. “To offer them my services. They greeted me as a friend.”
He paused. Then he lifted a hand to his head and touched his temple. As he drew his hand away, a small orb of light followed after his fingers. A memory, Gale realized, as Jergal sent it floating toward him. Gale cradled it in his hands, letting it sink into his silvered skin, and immediately his vision was flooded with the memory.
He saw Jergal approach the bed in the room, sitting down in a chair at the bedside. For a moment, Gale almost didn’t recognize the figure on the mattress, lying beneath the folded sheets, but as he drew closer there was no denying who it was.
Tav.
He had never seen them look so frail. The months since their victory had wasted them away until they were left looking more dead than alive. Their skin was as thin as paper, their usual tones now cast over with a gray pallor. Dozens of bruises bloomed on their skin, all in varying stages of healing or freshness, and their lips were colorless, their hair thin. He could see their bones sticking out, their skin stretched over them, as though half their muscle and fat had dissolved away. They had the look of a corpse about them, even as they opened their sunken eyes and turned their head toward Jergal. 
He wanted to think them beautiful—this was his beloved—but he could only stand, vaguely horrified at the sight of mortality at its worst. There was very little beauty here, only wretchedness. He hated the sight. Not Tav—never Tav—but all the evidence of what the illness had done, the pain, the injuries.
Why had Tav not sought healing?
The sight didn’t seem to alarm Jergal as he sat at their bedside. “I heard thy call,” he said quietly. “What dost thou require?”
Tav turned their eyes toward Jergal and reached one weakened hand toward them, a faint smile on their lips. “Maybe I just wanted to see an old friend one last time.”
“Thou art dying.” It wasn’t a question.
“I know.”
“Then dost thou require my resurrection services?”
“No.”
Gale jolted. No? No?
“He isn’t coming, is he?” Tav whispered, their hand still outstretched toward Jergal, lying inert on the sheets. 
“Thou speakest of thy wizard. Thy newborn god.”
Tav’s lips twisted. “He’s not my god.”
Gale stared, his fists clenched at his sides. Shock and pain and anger swirled within him, tangling together in a complicated knot that was all too familiar, all so dreadfully mortal, that he couldn’t help but hate it.
“He’s forgotten me, I think,” Tav whispered.
The knot in his chest stopped swirling all of a sudden, frozen and cold. Forgotten…forgotten? 
He wanted to rage. To tear this memory to shreds. To claw his way back in time and make Tav see the truth. Forgotten? Never.
But even he couldn’t alter the fabric of time.
You’re wrong, he wanted to scream. You’re wrong. I’m here. I’m here!
But it was just a memory.
Jergal said nothing at first to their remark, but at last he spoke. “Thou knowest I can give thee more time. Is that why thou hadst called?”
“No.” They breathed in shakily and Gale could hear the rattle of their breath as their lungs struggled to take in the air. “No. I just…didn’t want to be alone. When I died. For the last time.”
The last time.
The words echoed in his head, but he couldn’t stop the memory from playing out.
Jergal nodded slowly. “I see. And so thou didst call me.”
“Yeah. I decided…who better to watch me go than the Final Scribe?”
Jergal chuckled softly. “Ah. Thou hadst found it out.”
Tav’s smile was crooked, a ghost of their old humor. “I followed the clues. You made it kind of obvious.” They moved their hand closer again to Jergal’s. “Will you stay with me?”
“Is this truly what thou wishest? To die, and not return? If I recall, thy wizard hath promised thee eternity.”
Tav swallowed once, twice, silent. When they blinked, the glimmer of tears appeared in their eyes and then was blinked away. “I…don’t think I can wait for that chance, old friend. He’s been gone for months. Silent for months. What if he has forgotten me? And even if he hasn’t, this body…all the pain that just keeps building, I…” 
They swallowed again, and this time the tears leaked from their eyes, dripping down the sides of their face. They took another shaky breath, and then couldn’t speak the words. Another rattling breath, and then a faint whisper, choked with tears.
“I don’t think I could start over and endure all this again. I don’t think I’m strong enough to wait for him.”
The words nearly drove Gale to his knees. He had been so close. Only days, mere days separated this memory from his reality. Tav couldn’t endure for a few more days, after yet another resurrection brought them back to life? They couldn't have endured one more cycle of death and rebirth, for him?
Why couldn’t they have waited?
For the first time, he began to understand the pain they kept hidden from him. Even as he understood, at the time, comparing the pain of the orb to Tav’s experience, even as they had bonded over a mutual knowledge of what it meant to be in pain every single day…he’d never realized the depth of their pain.
That it would be so bad that they would wish for death, even when promised eternity.
I don’t think I’m strong enough…
“Oh, my love,” he whispered. “If only you could have endured it, I…”
But the memory didn’t wait.
“It’s stupid,” Tav said, swallowing and finding a bit of strength to speak above a whisper. “I’ve died so many times since the nautiloid. I used to hate it. But I realized a while ago that…waiting there in the Fugue Plane…it was the only place I was free of this pain.”
“Thou were free of thy physical body in death,” Jergal said. “And where the soul doth go, physical pain doth not follow.”
“Exactly. You understand.” Tav took a deep breath, this one less difficult. “I think that’s why I’ve decided…the next time I die…I want to stay there.”
Jergal offered no opinion, he merely tilted his head and watched Tav, his glimmering eyes unblinking.
“So?” they asked. Again they inched their hand closer to Jergal. “Will you stay with me until I go? I know my soul is in safe hands with you.”
“Yes,” Jergal said, and at last he reached out to take Tav’s hand, his withered fingers curling around theirs. “I shall guide thy passing, as in days of old.”
Tav smiled again, their relief relaxing their entire body. “Thank you,” they whispered.
The memory faded as they closed their eyes, the moment of Tav’s passing obscured from Gale’s vision. He tried to cling to the memory, to see the moment of their final breath, but it was gone. Jergal had kept it from him.
He felt…empty. Hollow. For one, terrifying moment he wondered what all this divinity was for. If not to share with his lover, then…what?
But a spark kindled within him again. Was he not the god of ambition? Was he not the god of taking risks for the highest rewards? What was death to a god like him?
“You know where they are,” he said, turning once more to Jergal. “Take me to them. To wherever their soul resides.”
“Thou knowest as well as I that it would be of no use,” Jergal said. “Thy beloved’s soul is beyond thy reach, now. They hath made their decision.”
Gale could feel his anger rising, as it always did these days when someone dared to suggest what he could or couldn’t do. Anything was possible, given enough time and enough power—that was his creed as the god of ambition. 
“Fine,” he said, keeping his voice carefully controlled. “Then I will seek them out myself.”
“Go, if thou pleaseth,” Jergal said, watching him turn away. “Perhaps it is best thou see them for thyself. But I will not aid thy search.”
“No matter. I will find them. Even if it takes me aeons.”
So saying, he left the material world, casting his essence through the planes, heading for that ever-shifting realm of the dead.
———
He materialized at last in the Fugue Plane, obscuring his presence and divinity in a fog that matched all the rest as he moved through the vastness of the gray plains, seeking, searching, looking for Tav. He scarcely knew what he would say to them, other than all the questions he wanted answers to. But he had to see them.
Why couldn’t you endure? Why did you think I had forgotten? Why did you stop believing in me? Why didn’t you wait?
Anger and despair fought for dominance in his mind, anger at Tav, anger at himself, despair at losing Tav, despair at his own follies. But something in his divinity kept him from ever really taking the blame. He was a god, after all. He knew better than mortals. It was Tav’s mortal reckoning that was the problem. Their mortal frailty. Their mortal inability to see the scope of eternity beyond their brief lifetime of pain. Perhaps if he had given them more glimpses of divinity, to show them what they had to look forward to…
His train of thought halted as he finally found them standing among the gray. Tav. His love.
They looked as they had in life, when they were at their very best. Healthy, standing straight, their hair full and thick, their skin clean and without blemish. They were stunning. Beautiful.
But gray. All over gray, in the same shades as every other wandering spirit here. Colorless and without vibrancy.
Yet...more solid than the wandering souls around them. Gale paused, remaining in the fog, watching. They stood on the plains, looking around, but not with the dull, aimless look of a soul shambling directionless in this plane. No, they appeared alert and confident, as if they knew themself, as if they had purpose.
After a moment, they seemed to find what they were looking for. They walked over to another soul that was sitting on the ground. The soul’s gaze was lifeless, dim, just the same as every other soul around them. This soul was a shade of their former self, their memories and life already slipping from their grasp. Tav softly called their name and held out their hand.
Kelemvor has sent me, they said, offering the soul a kind smile as the soul looked up slowly at them. I can take you to the City.
…Kelemvor?
Suddenly Gale understood.
Thy beloved’s soul is beyond thy reach.
So that’s what he meant. 
Gale had come with two, perhaps three ambitious plans in mind. If he couldn’t convince Tav to be resurrected and then ascended, he had planned to ask them to be resurrected and then become his Chosen. If Tav didn’t agree to either, then Gale was prepared to ask them to join his domain in death. One way or another, he thought, they would be together. As gods, as a god and a Chosen, or as a god and a faithful soul. Together forever.
His divine mind hadn’t conceived of a fourth option. He hadn’t anticipated what was now clearly Tav's new reality, irrevocable and unchangeable. Yet it stood before him, the evidence as obvious as day.
Kelemvor had claimed Tav’s soul before he could. Tav was beyond his control.
Though his anger flared up briefly in response—how dare Kelemvor claim his beloved before Gale had even had a chance to speak with them?—his anger soon cooled as he watched Tav take the hopeless soul by the hand and help them to stand.
Come with me, they said to the soul. I can guide you safely to the city.
Tav had been chosen as one of Kelemvor’s spirit guides, to help guide souls to the City of Judgment, or perhaps even to other gods’ domains, if Kelemvor’s judgment were so inclined to send them there. As Gale watched the two of them disappear into the fog, Tav leading the other soul gently by the hand, all his questions, all his anger, all his despair melted away,
He was left feeling hollow.
His ambitious plan had been thwarted, long before he’d even had a chance to enact it. The defeat should have stung, but instead he felt numb to it.
All that time spent exploring his godhood in order to ascend Tav, wasted. Yes, he had to admit, despite the humility churning his gut with discomfort, he had been too enamored with learning the limits of his power. But he hadn’t been gone long.
They chose this over him…?
He hovered in those gray, shifting plains, a cloud of fog amidst more fog, as he contemplated the matter to himself. Ran a thousand useless scenarios in his mind for how this could have gone differently. Tried to tease out new paths forward, only to be blocked at every turn by the rules of divinity and souls. He didn’t notice how much time had passed, until movement drew his gaze back to his surroundings.
Tav had returned. Only this time, it was clear they weren’t looking for a particular soul. They looked around them slowly before saying, out loud, “I know you’re there. You can come out now.”
They wouldn’t say such things to a soul they had been sent to guide. Which meant only one thing.
They were looking for him.
He hesitated at first but then decided that no more harm could be done. Not to them, anyway. And how much worse could his divine heart break, really?
He dropped his cloak of fog, settling down to stand just a few feet away from them. As soon as he materialized, their eyes were on him. Not shocked or surprised. As if they had been expecting him.
There was, however, a faint hint of nervousness in their face.
They locked eyes in that gray space, the fog swirling around them. A silver-toned deity, glowing with electric blue divinity, and a grayscale spirit guide, their eyes burning with silver light. They watched him silently for a moment, waiting.
Gale opened his mouth to speak, to apologize, to beg, to argue, to weep, but not a sound issued forth. What was there to say? They were out of his reach now. Separated from him for an eternity.
In the end they spoke first.
“Kelemvor said you were looking for me,” they said, in his silence. “I suppose you have questions.”
He had so many questions. But has he watched them stand before him, looking more alert, more confident, more vibrant with energy and vitality than they had been in life, even on their best mortal days, his questions all died on his tongue. All save one.
“Are you…content?”
The question surprised them, he could see it in their face. They nodded. “I am. You’ve probably already guessed what I am, then?”
“One of Kelemvor’s spirit guides. To lead the lost souls wandering this plane to the City of Judgment to await Kelemvor’s judgment of them.”
“Yes.” They hesitated. He could sense the words on their tongue that they wanted to say but were uncertain about. He saw them swallow the words back.
“I have a purpose here,” they said, instead. “There are so many I can help. So many places to travel in this line of work. Sometimes, when Kelemvor decides someone fits a different god’s domain, I even get to visit it with them as I take them there. I’m still trying to figure my way about, but…”
They trailed off, again uncertain. Gale could only smile.
“It suits you,” he said softly.
And it did. In life, they had longed to travel, to see new sights and meet new people. And then when forced to travel, it had brought them nothing but pain. Yet even so they had pushed through, seeking to help everyone they could, even as they themself were hurting, broken by battle and their curse.
He still felt there were better alternatives—could he not have made them a god of new things, of rebirth, of travel, of care for the downtrodden, or more? But they had chosen this instead.
He should have expected nothing less and nothing more.
“Thank you,” they said. Again they hesitated, until finally, in a burst of words, “Gale, I’m sorry. I know you said—”
But Gale held up a hand, stopping them. “No. No need to apologize. You don’t have to explain yourself to me.”
They frowned. “And yet you must think me the ultimate fool for giving up your offer of godhood for an eternity of playing messenger and guide.”
“What I think doesn’t matter,” he said. “But…no. I could never think you a fool. You simply…chose the path you felt was best for you.”
And now there was no turning back. 
They both lapsed into thoughtful silence at that, each of them watching the other. He could feel them studying him, taking in the new glimpses of his divine presence, the silvered skin, the lightning crackling at his temples, the white-blue glowing eyes. Here in the Fugue Plane, the two of them didn’t look that dissimilar, with all the grays and silvers that coated Tav’s body now as well. 
He still loved them, he realized. And he would always, he felt, love them. But that love had shifted. He was the god of ambition now, and they were a spirit guide of Kelemvor. Separated in death, yet still part of the same godly realms.
“Gale,” Tav said uncertainly. “I know you’re a new god, and there’s no one, that I know of, who is worshipping you who has died just yet. But when they do…perhaps Kelemvor will be kind enough to let me guide those souls to your domain. Maybe then we could…see each other. Once in a while. From a distance.”
Gale smiled at that. He could just picture Tav arriving at the edge of his domain, leading an ambitious soul to him. “A visit every now and again? I’d like that.”
“It won’t be every time, mind you,” Tav said. “There are a lot of guides. And you’re responsible for picking up your own faithful.”
Gale chuckled. “I am aware.”
“But other souls…ambitious souls who didn’t know you but that might fit your domain…well.” They offered him a little smile. “I’m just saying maybe this isn’t goodbye. It’s just…until we see each other again.”
It wasn’t enough. It would never be enough. Gale would never forget the chance he missed with them, to have them reign as a god at his side. But the hope shining in Tav’s silver-toned eyes was impossible to ignore or destroy. If they were content with this lot, perhaps, in time, he could be too.
“Very well,” he said. “I look forward to your first visit to my domain, then.” He gave them a little bow, a return to some of his mortal mannerisms.
Tav nodded, their smile faint, but as full of love as they had been in life. “Until we see each other again, Gale.”
He returned their smile and gentled his voice, bringing with it all the tenderness and love he still felt for them, and may yet feel for them for an eternity.
“Until then, my love. I will be waiting.”

“Spencer! Baby! Oh my God come here now!“.
Your voice made Spencer jump on his chair. He was writing a work report he didn’t manage to finish that day and for which Hotch would’ve his head if he didn’t turn it back by the next day.
Spencer's heart lost a beat and fear swept over him as his mind began to project every worst-case scenario possible.
He got up from his study desk, dropping his pen carelessly to the floor, and literally ran to the living room where he knew you and your baby were.
“Baby! What happened?! Are you all right? Is Noah okay?” He asked with concern and you instantly felt guilty for worrying him like that.
You were sitting on the floor, legs crossed while Noah was standing next to you and you were holding him by his little hands. He was babbling something nonsensical and began to fidget when he turned and saw his father, a huge smile on his face.
“Sorry love, everything’s okay. I didn't mean to scare you,” you giggled as you saw Spencer visibly relax and heave a sigh of relief.
“You gave me a fucking heart attack I thought something had happened,” he breathed out with a hand on his chest as he could feel his heart still pounding.
How long had he become so jumpy? He didn't know, he just knew that since he had become a father every little change and every little thing made him jump on the spot, making him tremendously worried about his child. God, that little being was making him lose years of life with each passing day.
“Don't ever do that again please,” Spencer admonished you as he approached you sternly but his expression immediately softened as his eyes rested on Noah who kept fidgeting wanting nothing more than to go to his father. “What have you been up to little one? You like to scare your dada huh? You are so lucky you and your mom are adorable, I hope both of you know that”.
You let go of his little hands but still being close to him as you proudly watched Noah hold himself up. His little legs trembled slightly as he continued to babble something.
“Oh god...” Spencer murmured almost imperceptibly in shock. Was it really going to happen? In that instant he realized why you had called him and he almost had a heart attack again.
“Yes baby! Come to dada, come here, I know you can do it,” he continued to encourage him, approaching him and kneeling down so he could immediately catch him if he fell. He stretched his arms toward his baby, a huge smile on his lips as he invited Noah to take his first steps.
You went to get your phone at the speed of light, wanting to capture that precious moment in a video so you could keep it with you forever.
Noah brought one leg forward and the other with instability, taking his first step and making his parents jump for joy.
The living room filled with the sounds of little squeals of excitement and clapping hands as you both continued to encourage your son to continue taking baby steps.
Spencer never felt such joy before, maybe he had a similar feeling the day he married you but seeing his baby walk, taking his first steps towards him, damn it, that feeling was something indescribable, something he’d never forget.
“Yeah buddy! You're so good, you're doing great my love. Come to your dada! I’m right here… “ Spencer continued to say while taking small steps backwards while Noah instead took the same number towards him.
His eyes didn't leave his child even for a second, almost forgetting you were there next to them while filming the whole scene with your cell phone. He analyzed every movement that little ray of sunshine was making, the way he was so focused, the way his walk was unsteady and rickety, the way he looked at him with a smile on his little face as he let slip some little frustrated screams when he never seemed to be able to reach his father. He wanted to imprint all these little details in his memory and never before did he thank whoever was up there for his eidetic memory.
Noah eventually stopped in his tracks and Spencer caught him before he even hit the floor, standing up and holding him close.
“Yes! You did it buddy!” Spencer exclaimed in joy as he lifted little Noah into the air who continued to giggle and drool while he waved his little arms. He showered kisses on his plump little cheeks, not being able to contain his joy. “I'm so proud of you little one, I love you so much.”
You were a complete mess as you looked at Spencer and the way he held his baby with so much love and pride, you could see it in his face, the way he looked at him. That man loved his son more than any other person in the world and then more than ever you couldn't help but think you couldn't have chosen a better father for your child.
Spencer gently caressed Noah's head, cradling him in his arms as his emotions overwhelmed him.
He had never been good at controlling them and keeping them at bay was harder than ever. He couldn't believe how quickly time was passing, how was it possible his son was already walking?
It seemed like yesterday that he held him as soon as he was born.
“Spence…” you called him when you saw the way Spencer had sheltered his face on Noah's small shoulders, as if to hide himself. You placed a hand on your husband's shoulder, immediately noticing he was crying.
“Take him,” he whispered and you picked Noah up as Spencer went to sit on the couch, hands on his face and elbows resting on his knees as he sobbed uncontrollably.
“Oh baby you'll make me cry too.”
As if you weren’t already a fountain of tears.
You hugged your baby too, crying with joy all the tears you had in your body while he unaware played with your hair.
“I love you so much my little angel,” you whispered, giving him a kiss on the cheek, thanking God for giving you such a beautiful gift.
You turned your head towards Spencer, noticing how he was sobbing and when he raised his head and you looked at each other, you both burst into a loud laughter, aware of how disastrous each other looked.
You sat next to him and he wasted no time in wrapping a hug around your shoulders. He pulled you towards him and left a kiss on your head, while tears continued to run down his cheeks, his eyes on Noah who just didn't seem to stay still.
“I… Damn… I can’t do this…” he cried, bringing his hands to his face after leaning against the back of the sofa and drying his tears.
How could anyone be so fucking happy?
He had never felt anything like this, he didn't know how to react and he hated not knowing how he felt.
He was afraid. Afraid it’d be too good to be true.
What had he done to deserve all this? What had he done to have the family he had always dreamed of?
Images and memories kept playing in his mind. From the moment you told him you were pregnant, from the joy and fear of having to be a father, from when you found out you were expecting a boy to the moment he felt him kicking for the first time in your womb. He remembered watching your belly grow for nine months until he finally held his son in his arms for the first time and now seeing him take his first steps.
He felt so incredibly grateful, so damn lucky.
You caressed his arm, trying to comfort him even though you were crying even more than him.
He tried to compose himself but all he had to do was pick up his baby again to let down more tears of joy, meanwhile laughing with you. It was so surreal.
He wrapped his other arm around your shoulders and pulled you back to him, letting you rest your head on his chest as you looked at Noah standing on his father's thighs.
“I love you so much baby, thank you for giving me the best gift I could ever ask for,” he whispered after leaving a sweet kiss on your forehead making your heart do a somersault in your chest. Even though years had passed, you never got tired of hearing him say it.
You lifted your head and pressed your lips to his in a chaste kiss as butterflies roamed freely across your stomach. “I love you so much Spence.”
You burst out laughing when Noah grabbed a lock of Spencer's hair and started pulling it, making the grown man let out a whine.
“Jesus christ how can they be so small but so strong?” Spencer complained as he tried to loosen his baby’s grip on his hair. The scene was comical, you didn't know if the way Noah pulled Spencer’s hair made you laugh more or your husband's face still streaked with tears and his eyes still red.
But he didn't care, even though Noah was hurting him quite a bit, he couldn't stop smiling, thinking he wouldn't change this for anything else in the world.

₊˚.༄ gingerbread - seok matthew
Tumblr media
yes i'm aware we're in march but i finally finished writing this so i'm posting it anyways !! i'm so delusional for this man it's becoming an actual problem i fear.
my inbox is empty so feel free to request !
↬matthew x gn!reader (reader is kind of implied to have long hair) ↬1688words ↬(self indulgent) fluff, oneshot, gyuvin cameo ↬tw: none just not proofread lol
Tumblr media
christmas means the world to matthew. he's the force behind turning your shared apartment into a festive retreat, decorating every space and making sure you explore every christmas market around. for him, the holiday excitement is almost on par with his birthday. the fact that you both get to experience this special season together in your newly shared home adds an extra layer of significance to him. his excitement is infectious, and you find yourself enjoying the holiday season more than you did already.
as he stood in the store facing rows of gingerbread house kits, matthew couldn't make a decision without consulting you. he grabbed his phone and facetimed you, holding up different options for you to choose. as your boyfriend deliberated with you, gyuvin's voice joined the debate.
"oh my god please get the huge one!" he pleaded through the screen. you assumed he was referring to the sizable box at the bottom of the shelf, resembling more of a gingerbread mansion than a mere house. matthew's face lit up with his trademark open-bracket smile, both edges of his lips curving upward in response to gyuvin's suggestion.
"gyuvin, are you going to help out?" you teased, prompting laughter from both ends as matthew continued to examine the oversized gingerbread mansion kit - this was very serious to him.
"am i invited to your date?"
matthew playfully rolls his eyes at his antics, and so do you.
"nope, and we're sticking with the smaller kit, right, matt?" you playfully threatened your boyfriend, although there was a hint of truth into the teasing tone.
he reluctantly gave in, much to his best friend's disappointment. a few minutes later, your boyfriend is back home, arms filled with grocery bags and a huge shopping bag. you can easily figure out what happened after you hung up—matthew greeted you with a peck, his expression carrying a hint of guilt.
"did you go for the mansion?!" you exclaim, disbelief written all over your face as you gaze at your boyfriend. he responds with a sheepish smile, getting the box out of the bag, he starts unpacking the kit.
"yeah, i got a little carried away at the store, and gyuvin ended up talking me into picking this one," he confessed, his eyes locked onto the box, a touch of uncertainty on his face as he gauged your reaction to see if you were upset. of course, you weren't. your concern was more about whether it would live up to matthew's expectations.
"well, it does look cute!" you reassure, pointing at the small plastic christmas trees that accompany the kit. "i just hope we've got enough frosting to make it look as nice as it does on the box," you add, casting a thoughtful eye over the ingredients and decorations you neatly laid out on the table.
"i'll grab our aprons," matthew declares with determination, clapping his hands in excitement. he's referring to the matching sanrio aprons you purchased earlier that month – he opted for the cinamoroll one, and you for my melody.
as he heads towards the kitchen to fetch the aprons, you put on your shared christmas playlist and continue unpacking the kit. matthew returns, aprons in hand. without a word, he steps closer and lends a hand as you put yours on, and you do the same for him.
"can't get over how adorable these aprons are," matthew gushes as he admires you.
it's a shared quirk between you two – an irresistible impulse to snag anything cute, regardless of practicality, and especially if it means matching with each other. while your apartment is pretty organized and neat, it’s also full of little trinkets.
“we definitely need the pompompurin one too,"
matthew nods in agreement, all the while studying the instructions on the back of the box while you open the numbered bags with the different parts of the house.
with christmas songs softly playing in the background, you dive into the task at hand, the concentration evident on both your faces. as you work, matthew quietly sings along, his voice weaving a comforting melody that never fails to bring a smile to your face.
the ambient lighting from the elaborately adorned tree and flickering fireplace casts a warm glow, enveloping the room in a relaxing ambiance. when you get to the challenging stage of assembling the gingerbread structure with frosting, you start getting worried.
"i have no idea how to start building even after reading the instructions," he confesses, holding what's supposed to be the front of the building, uncertainty etched across his features.
you survey the gingerbread pieces and the frosting, treating it like a puzzle yet to be solved. with a reassuring smile, you join your boyfriend, taking a moment to strategize the best approach.
"well, let's start with the base. we can add on one corner and then assemble the sides step by step," you suggest, matthew is careful as he sets the base while you prep the frosting.
you're in the midst of carefully slathering frosting on the sides, taking your sweet time, but your hair keeps getting in the way. matthew catches on and, without missing a beat, grabs a hair tie from his wrist – he always has one handy for you. you feel a gentle touch as he gathers your hair and skillfully ties it back. a small, grateful smile creeps onto your face.
“thanks, angel," you express, grateful for the simplicity of his gesture. he grins at the pet name. he loves how pet names flow so easily out of your lips.
with your hair tied back, you dive back into the frosting mission. once you finish, matthew steps in, holding the panels in place while you apply frosting to bind them together.
"you're so good at this," matthew confesses, admiring your work as you skillfully spread the frosting without a smudge in sight.
"you sound surprised," you retort, shooting a glance at your boyfriend. it’s just too easy to tease him.
“maybe just a little impressed," he chuckles, nudging you as the gingerbread structure starts taking shape. “i was counting on you to make this look good, to be honest,” he adds, you roll your eyes, faking annoyance.
"well yeah, i figured i was gonna do all the hard work by myself,"
matthew does that little head tilt he does whenever you tease him, his lips forming a mix between a pout and a smile, earning another laugh from you.
"hey, i'm helping!"
you give him an intentionally reticent nod to tease him further. he acts offended, and before you can even realize what's happening, he takes the icing bag you put aside and smears a little bit of icing on your nose. you blink in surprise as the cool touch of icing graces your nose. matthew looks immensely pleased with his impromptu move, little giggles bubbling in his throat - you don’t think you could ever get tired of that airy laugh of his.
“oh, i see how it is… since you’re so skilled with the icing, i’ll let you take care of the rest, sound good?” you pretend to get up to leave. you just love entertaining the banter, especially when your boyfriend’s response is that adorable pout of his and puffed-up cheeks. the temptation to kiss him is strong, but the joy of teasing him prevails.
“you’re so mean?!” he responds in the most dramatic tone ever, holding your arm to stop you.
“i’ll call a truce if i get to decorate your face too,” you suggest innocently, a mischievous glint in your eyes. the blonde raises an eyebrow in curiosity as you scoop a dollop of whipped cream with your index finger. leaning in, your faces just inches apart, you delicately smear the cream on his nose and cheeks, your touch slow and deliberate, as if crafting a delicate masterpiece. you draw two little hearts on his cheeks, you smile to yourself while matthew tries to supress his quiet giggles to keep up the sulking act. he can't believe that such a gentle and simple touch can still turn him into putty in your hands - literally giggling and kicking his feet internally.
"oops," you feign innocence as your fingers graze the corner of his lips, spreading a bit of cream there too. "i guess i'll have to clean this up," you whisper before closing the distance between you two.
without much time for matthew to process the boldness of your move, you swiftly taste the sweetness on his soft lips. his muscular arm instinctively wraps around your waist, pulling you closer in an instant while your lips lead a perfect dance. The room is filled with the delightful sounds of giggles and the subtle rustle of clothes as your arms find their place, encircling his neck.
his fingers find the hem of your top and play with it – one of his many endearing habits. whether cuddling or engaged in more intimate moments, he can’t resist fidgeting with your clothes, hair, or tracing patterns on your skin with his fingertips.
matthew knew too exactly how to turn you into putty in his hands.
the care and gentleness with which he holds you is intoxicating and mirrors his approach to everything – from making you pancakes adorned with a smiley face of cream and berries, to the way he makes sure to always leave a little note on your mirror each morning or how he indulges in all of your interests and gets heavily invested in them.
you can feel him smiling against your lips before he breaks the kiss, his eyes filled with fondness as he gazes at your face. a light blush graces his cheeks and the tips of his ears, yet he wears a smug smile on his lips. how does he manage to be so adorable and flirty at the same time? it's a question that lingers in your mind, even after all this time dating. even though you show your affection to him every single day through small gestures, you're somehow still convinced he has no clue about the profound effect he has on you, how he has you swooning over the simplest things he does.
suddenly, all the boldness from earlier evaporates, and your cheeks heat up and you could swear that the warmth from the crackling fire is engulfing you. without thinking, you bury your face in the blonde's neck, seeking refuge in the warmth of his embrace.
“if you wanted to kiss me so bad you could’ve just said that from the get-go,” he teased, his voice light and playful. he can’t resist squeezing you gently in his arms at the sight of your cheek pressed on his shoulder.
you peek out from your cozy hiding spot, shooting him a mock glare. “don’t play with me right now, i’ll really leave you alone to build the whole thing,” you try to sound indignant but fail miserably, your heart eyes and sheepish smile clearly betraying you.
he chuckles while his fingers trace lazy circles on your back before planting a kiss on your temple. “you wouldn’t, you love me too much,” you respond by slightly hitting his chest.
"okay, maybe just a tiny bit too much," you admit with a playful eye-roll, “now get to work before i change my mind”

Ignore me, just adding some more stuff into your inbox pile hehehehehe
🌈 Rainbow: What is your favorite character dynamic to write? Give us an example from your WIP!
💧 Raindrop: Describe your antagonist/villain in 5 words.
P. S: Take all the time you want bud, I know the battery is currently low 🫂🫡
*chews lix* hi friend- (ask game)
thank you I'm doing my best to keep up with everything, also redirecting here @upsilambic because she asked for the same prompt
Tumblr media
🌈 Rainbow: It's not a character dynamic per se I think, but I really like to tackle the tension between two characters that are obviously up against one another but can't openly fight it out/quarrel/express their disdain for one another. I guess you could call it forced collaboration?
Two scheming characters, each one with their own goals, who have to constantly outsmart and keep up with the other's moves. They KNOW the other one is out to get them but cannot ask for help or flee: they have to play the game or itìs their end.
Let's see if I can find something from the next chapters:
"For the past two months, Madam Nifate has instructed us to divide the sample pools into two subgroups. [...] The second group, on the other hand, is dedicated to collecting data on conscious subjects."
"Which we know to be very scarce compared to the resources we use to obtain them," he interrupted again, finally deigning her with his cold gaze, "How many subjects died this time?"
Anemone's heart was gripped by a mixture of shame and fear: it seemed that young Tristam had done his homework before that meeting. She guessed that, perhaps, he had planned to confront her about it personally, preparing to debate with the data held by Nifate. At least, she thought, a subtle difference between him and the Nera Signora was slowly becoming identifiable: he was much less patient than his mother.
"We... we lost two girls," she replied, struggling against the urge to clench her fists, "Thirteen and twenty-three years old. The other three subjects lost consciousness during the experimentation... and so managed to survive."
Tristam's reaction to that information was a silent raising of his eyebrows. "I understand. And why did it come to letting three subjects faint? Why didn't you proceed? Keeping them conscious by force shouldn’t be that hard."
Anemone's self-control failed: she bit her lower lip before answering with a trembling voice: "Signorino Tristam. Our approach as a research and development team prioritizes the safeguarding of our specimens when possible."
"Yes, mother mentioned things have been like this since you took command."
"And since then, branch productivity has increased by 30%. Collaboration with the study subjects allows them to re-present themselves as such multiple times. With all due respect, signorino... under these premises, it's not accurate to describe our work as 'lacking commitment', if that's what you're insinuating."
💧 Raindrop: oh god. who's KW's main villain? I feel like that's Tristam right now, at least.
Treacherous. Forlorn. Adored. Repaired. Vengeful.

Hello I'm back I'd like to elaborate on the aphrodisiac thing. I think reader would fight the feeling and be in a sort of pain trying to deny their body's wants. They'd be ashamed to admit what's going on to Sloane and terrified of breaking their friendship but Sloane is SO insistent on knowing what you're exactly feeling, what's got you this way?? Do you need them to take you to a hospital??
When you finally grimace out that you think the flower, was an aphrodisiac. And you're feeling crazy strange, they ask if there's anything they can do to help. You practically shake at the thought but deny them, again and again. They keep asking if you're sure, because they want to help. Only if you want it. And you sit there, biting back all these mounting emotions, swirling into a statement. You really have to concentrate to even get across what you want to say, thinking closely. "Sloane...I want you to help- please believe me. But. I don't want to fuck this up. Us up. I love you so much." A weak groan leaving your lips while your eyebrows furrow. Sweat is trickling down the slide of your head, your throat bobbing while you prepare to speak again. Reaching out to put a hand on theirs you say, "I just need you to know that..." another wave of pain hits you mid sentence, causing a small groan. "Know that I want us more than this. I... need you more than this. You can say no and we can pretend this never happened but things won't be the same if you do." You can barely make eye contact with them, fear strikes through you as your thoughts race.
"God, you pinky swear?" They say, looking at you in all seriousness. Pinky swears were- indeed serious business. Being their friend for so long, you once joked that you can never lie when pinky swearing, and it's now become type of Safeword. Just one where you have to be honest, instead of "Oh that sounds fun..." when they don't sound enthused, you make them pinky swear they're telling the truth and usually they crumble and tell you how they really feel. It was a great communication tool for you both, especially since sometimes it can be hard for u to read them, and vice versa.
"Pinky swear." You say wrapping your pinky around theirs while staring at them with earnest. It's what that needed to finally except the months of touches, flirting, winking, looks, texts, invites. The little stares, the movie nights, the cuddling...it meant more and they knew it did, they were just too scared to break it. To break the tension, to ruin what was happening.
Ok I thought of the pinky swear on the spot if you thought it was silly please ignore me but I thought something really meaningful to their friendship would help. Ok bye
Tumblr media
ANONNNNNNNN YOU POPPED OFF IN MY INBOX??????????? JESUS GIVING ME HEART PALPATIONS
I just want to say, that scene is so good, but I want to add something. A little... ✨ sparkle ✨.
Don't think about the touches, the casual ones, the ones that don't mean anything, yet, but still mean so much in the moment. Where you're shaking with unadulterated strain, arousal leaking down your thigh at the closeness of everything you want, but can't have, the wet feeling so cold, but you know it's not, your body is burning, blistering with fever, throbbing with need, but shivering with pain, Venture drops the phone, Lifeweaver's voice shouting through the receiver in concern. Venture had to contact him, didn't know what else to do, this wasn't their area of expertise, but he's forgotten, dropped, and lost among the many pillows and blankets Venture had shoved into your tent at the first sight of illness. Venture grips you, grips one of your hands in theirs, making you arch at the contact, but they can't bring themselves to let go. You had heard what Lifeweaver said. Some sort of flower that would cause pain if its symptoms weren't treated, and of course, of fucking course they'd have to be lust. Venture would have to fuck you. Even now, with every new course of ache, sharp, stinging pain through you, Venture's eyes were on nothing but you, filled with concern, almost as if they wished to share the pain, helplessly scanning your body for something they could do. It made the tears in your eyes overflow with love, with pure, utter affection at the sweetness. You have to shut them, overtaken by everything. Another hand moves to your thigh, you can't see it, but GOD, can you feel it. It's like another shock of pleasure to your brain, making you yelp, and they try to soothe you, with whispered hushes, and mumbled words of reassurance, but it's throttled and broken, Venture is just as worried as you are but is trying to be strong, trying for you...
You grab their hand back as you speak, trying to convey just how much they mean to you, hoping your words come out as clearly as they feel in your heart. You don't have to, you mean more to me than anything that would ruin this. You're so much more.
"God, you pinky swear?" And their voice... their voice sounds like its on the verge of hysteria. Good? Bad? It's confused, breathless, and- and happy?, and scared, all at once. A concoction of some poison, that goes straight between your thighs, hoping this figment doesn't kill as it travels down your throat.
As you manage to wrap your pinky around theirs, with a trembling hand...
The mirror shatters.

OH MY GOD???
"Fireheart followed after her mindlessly. He crouched at the deputy’s head, face-to-face. Wild, terrified amber eyes darted around as the dark mouth moved and creaked out the smallest attempts at words.
Fireheart, unsure of what to do but unable to bear the fear, touched his nose to the deputy’s own.
The eyes focused on him now, slowly settling. Fireheart kept eye contact, doing his best to send comforting thoughts through his gaze. He held it even as wet sounds bubbled from the deputy’s throat and he whimpered out a gurgling series of breaths before the amber eyes lost their focus and faded."
Tumblr media
DAMN IT ALL, WHY MUST YOU DO THIS TO US
Seriously, I did not expect this. I fully thought that Tigerclaw would successfully flee and end up becoming Scourge. But... he's dead now. This leaves everything up in the air. And the fallout? That won't be pleasant.
Something that also broke me- Fireheart called him Arpam. Father. And that stopped Tigerclaw. Despite everything, Fireheart still views him has his father, and Tigerclaw still viewed him as his son.
Tumblr media
It's really funny to me that I've still got people in my inbox right now refusing the fact that he's dead. I don't know if I didn't make it clear enough or they're just in denial. Either way, it's making me laugh.
This is a lesson for all of you: just because I answer a theory ask with a teasing gif or a plant fact, it doesn't mean the theory is correct. I love the idea that came around of Tigerclaw becoming Scourge, and I kind of wish I'd came up with it beforehand, but sadly that is not where this story is going. And honestly, Lynx and I have discussed what he'd do if he got away successfully, and rising up a gang to destroy the Clans is not it. Quite the opposite, in fact. We may talk more about that one day, but just know that it wouldn't be in character for this particular version of him.

okay i choose rose but i'm not interested in hearing about your romantic crush i want to hear you wax poetic about either ur biggest bts crush or general fandom crush you have thank u so much
matchy is choosing chaos in the inbox tonight as if i needed an opportunity to wax poetic about park jimin. jimin THEE stallion
IN HONOR OF FACE DROPPING TONIGHT I AM POSTING MY ANSWER
i was actually talking to @eoieopda recently about how i feel bad sometimes about having jimin as my bias because i think hyung line always needs more credit than they get, and i don't want the assumption to be made about me that i don't love and appreciate EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE MEN. i'm not gonna get too deep into that conversation, but it basically came down to "you could write essays on jimin." and i CAN. and SO I SHALL!!!!!!
jimin is the love of my life. in this essay, i will- tell you why.
i'll start easy. surface-level. have you seen him dance? idk. idk idk idk, he just puts me into a fucking trance every time. that black swan solo in mots on:e brings a tear to thine eye. he is the swan, that song is one of his biggest fears. he's got "youth" and "young forever" tattooed on him. you can age out of dancing very quickly if you're not careful. I'M ALREADY DIGRESSING OKAY ANYWAY. he has not let his background in contemporary dance hold him back in any way when becoming an idol. in fact, he's made a point of making his background his strength. hip-hop, but make it ~pretty~.
*ahem* jimin has been defying gender stereotypes since day one. 🗣️ yes, he felt pressured to express his gender identity in a hypermasculine way because that’s how bts was presenting at the time. and he was trying SO hard. but even outside of that, he was always going against stupid ideas of gender. i always think of that moment in bon voyage 1 (i think?) when the members were saying that men don’t check their selfies. and jimin was like, “there you go again. what on earth is masculinity?”  i feel like we can attribute A LOT of bts’s transformation from the school trilogy to every era afterward to jimin’s presence in the group. he’s been there the whole time telling the members to challenge their views of what it means to be a man. they support each other, so when jimin wanted to express himself in a more authentic way, they encouraged him. they also learn from each other, so when they saw jimin leaning into that blend of the masculine and the feminine, they saw that they could do the same because it’s all fucking arbitrary. jimin still identifies as male. wearing the color pink and jewelry and makeup and openly showing affection don’t take away from that.
AND THAT’S WHY JIMIN’S VOICE IS SO FUCKING INTEGRAL TO THIS GROUP. oh my god dude. the range that he fucking has? and the majority of the time he chooses to sing in his upper register and falsetto? who the FUCK ELSE is doing that? not your fave, i’ll tell you that much.
jimin provides a level of comfort that i aspire to (and we should all aspire to). the members are all close and have individual relationships with each other, of COURSE. but jimin just seems to make each member feel uniquely special to him in their presence. i don’t know how else to word that. i truly think he is the glue that keeps bts together (not that i think they would disband without him or anything). but he's a libra (with a cancer rising). libras are mediators. libra prioritizes harmony, and cancer prioritizes comfort. and then his gemini moon, which prioritizes connection and communication. so i would imagine that the members just naturally gravitate to him for that kind of comfort and connection. AND THEN HE ENDLESSLY GIVES THAT SAME AMOUNT OF COMFORT TO MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ALL THE TIME LIKE HOW??????
and then OH AND THEN he's just the funniest person alive easily like he's just so silly and light-hearted and how does one person just contain so many multitudes you know? there are so many sides to him (dare i say... faces). and i don't need to get into all the ways that i specifically relate to him because i think so many of us do. but i'm just so happy for him as he continues to understand himself and exhibit more sides to himself and HE IS THE LOVE OF MY FUCKING LIFE OKAY YOU CAN TELL THAT I RAN DRY HERE AT THE END BUT I JUST CAN'T PUT IT INTO WORDS ANYMORE PARK JIMIN I LOVE YOU

Pleg what are you fave hcs from The Lucky One that didn't make it into the fic please 😊
Juno this has been sat in my inbox for a WHILE 😭 my deepest apologies, I just wanted to take some time to think about this before I answered bc I am very blessed that you enjoy this fic enough to still want to learn about it
I really wanted to put in a whole thing about the relationship between Divina and Veronica in the current timeline because their relationship genuinely fascinates me.
For starters, Veronica is not Divina’s first protégé, no no no there’s a whole gaggle of west end stars who owe their career to Divina in this universe. So why did Veronica stick? It’s not because of her crush (although I low-key really wanted to have them be properly together) but rather it’s because Divina sees herself in Veronica.
This is built off of my Vee theory, in which there is a Veronica in every series of DRUK. In series 1 it’s Divina (series 2/3 are Vee, 4 is Copper, and I’m already claiming [REDACTED BUT YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHO] for series 5 hehe) but also it’s important in the fic based on lights. The picture where they’re standing together under Divina’s name, etc. In the song The Lucky One, there’s a line before the chorus that’s some variation of “a name goes up in lights, I wonder if I’ll make it out alive”, obviously with the theme of fame and the personal destruction that follows - but Divina does not have this destruction.
(Are you still with me? I’m going off on one and I fear this only makes sense in my own head but bear with.)
So Vee is a foil to Divina, if you will, of what would’ve been if Divina hadn’t been as cutthroat. If you remember, Divina not only rose to fame for her talent but also for being known to steal roles under people’s noses. She sounds horrible - but she takes these young women, young naive women, under her wing and helps them so they don’t *have* to gain this reputation
Unfortunately, this partially lends to Veronica gaining her Lucky One reputation.
So in the present timeline there was meant to be more of Divina and Veronica. Veronica pushed Divina away at first, resenting her somewhat, but in time came to forgive Divina. Divina is one of the few people (aside from Tia) who visits the house to see Veronica, becoming a mentor in more ways than one. There’s a sense of loss in both of them, in the way that Veronica took herself out of the industry and the way that Divina is aging out of the industry, as she also becomes more disillusioned with it as she sees how she’s being treated. I think that could have been fun to explore, the two foils (especially compared with Tia oh my god, Tia who has managed to do what neither of them could and became a star in their own right with no negative reputation attached)
I hope this made sense! Thank you for your question Juno, I’m always so so happy to talk about The Lucky One

I'm sticking my fingers through the bars, tell me about hannity please I beg
OH MY GODDD OH MY FUCJING GOD ITS HAPPENING OK. SO.
'hannity' is my nickname for my c!tntduo au inspired by this incredible fanart where c!wilbur and c!quackity are the protagonists of the crime thriller show Hannibal
Wilbur Soot is a disgraced former FBI agent who was, for a long time, FBI's golden boy: he started young and was very talented as a criminal profiler, being the definitive piece to solving many big, complex cases that got tons of media attention–which might have been a bad thing if he wasn't also an incredible public speaker–, quickly becoming both head of his own team and a well-known public figure, all the while having a lovely wife and kid.
That was, until about four years ago, before… The Incident. It's hard to say what exactly happened but what just about any person that keeps up with the news knows is that, seemingly overnight, Wilbur Soot: 1) lost his mind and tried to blow up a building 2) was found not guilty by reason of insanity, and was only sentenced to a year in a mental health facility (...to the disapproval of a lot of the public).
He now teaches criminology to FBI trainees and aside from his job lives completely removed from the rest of the world, meaning both the eye of the public and the attempts at connection from his family and friends.
Wilbur is not allowed to go back to the field, not does he particularly wants to (it's hard to say what exactly he wants) but that doesn't stop the head of the FBI, known as The Warden, from–amid an unsolvable and urgent case–pushing him back into it anyways, despite strong protests from Wilbur's colleague and former best friend Doctor Niki Nihachu, who fears both for others safety and for Wilbur's sanity.
So, as a means of tracking Wilbur's mental health and making sure going back to work won't break him, The Warden orders him to start therapy with Doctor Alexis Quackity Schlatt, renowned psychiatrist, talented gastronomer and widow to infamous gay Republican Senator J. Schlatt. 
Quackity is intelligent, cultured, and seems to understand Wilbur better than anyone can, and throughout the session Wilbur and Quackity develop a deep and complex relationship, while Wilbur has to navigate being a criminal profiler again, but he will come to learn that Quackity might have a bigger connection to his work on the FBI than he innitially thought…
ok lmao i have no idea how good of an introduction to this topic this is but i really just wanted to get out there the basic premise and all that we initially know about Wilbur's character. the core of this story is really a character study of Wilbur as well as the development of this… very Interesting relationship. and you bet your ass their gonna get psychocompetitive up in here.
i'm trying not to spoil anything Big big but if anyone wants to ask follow up questions my inbox is always open lol. it's very ctnt focused but some other characters that will have a role in this (either on screen or by having a Meaningful background relationship to the mains) are: Schlatt, Niki, Sam, Tubbo, Tommy, Hannah, Sapnap and Karl, and Ranboo. 
thank you so much for asking!!! :3

🧙‍♀️Can I please request the dorm leaders with the female Solomon
✨Imagen them learning that her magic is more powerful than the whole school combined and Have a no chance of overbloting because they learn to control their powers and emotions
(her joking about what whoud happen if she overbolts)
🧙‍♀️Them loving their susy sorcerers and learning about her pacts wit demons
Them also learning that she became immortal thx to her food.
✨And imagine her summing asmodeus when she is dating Vil so they can do their beauty stuff
🦚(and she can do some shady stuff or eat her cooking because her cooking made him lose his dorm leaders spot until she said it was food (because who can make the stronger poison gets the pomefiore dorm head titel ) that's why she isn't allowed to cook.
🐙Her and azul making a business from their perfect positions the shady couple.
🐉Malleus finally being happy that they don't have a normal human life span and are also royalty and she doesn't fear him I can see her touching his horns and sebec flipping out and it.
🦁Leona hearing her call his nephew chiaua 2.0 and jokes that he and luke could be friends.
🎮Idia being confused how he got such a s/o who also likes anime.
🌹Her telling riddle that the only rule she broke is acedently becoming imortal.
☀️And Kalim and her cooking that almost caused jamil to overbolt again but they they both get saved by her because someone kidnapped both Kalim and jamil and her just getting summend by Kalim and saving the day
Oh my god 😂. Y’all flooded my inbox.
Tumblr media
Riddle Rosehearts
He’s seen your magic, and it’s completely different from the one they use in Twisted Wonderland. One such difference is that yours can actually be deadly in itself, while theirs can only lead to deadly repercussions.
Don’t even joke about any possible overblots. He can collar you sure, but your magic is different as stated before. You see, rather than being born with it, you had to learn it as well as harness it. You would be unstoppable because you’re immortal as well.
He remembers the one time where Trey asked you to help him in the kitchen. He had never heard him scream in such a high-pitched tone. He ran in and saw Trey passed out and you adding ingredients left and right. With food like this, it’s no wonder you’re immortal.
During his overblot, he sees you summoning literal demons to fight him as well as using your own spells. To be honest, he could’ve been killed by the demons if you hadn’t ordered them to keep him alive.
In the infirmary room, he breaks down and apologizes for everything. You try to lighten the mood by saying that the only rule you broke was making yourself immortal, but it makes him feel crappier because you didn’t do anything to deserve any of this.
Tumblr media
Leona Kingscholar
Isn’t surprised to see that you’re more powerful than anyone else. Kind of the rules of the Sunset Savanna. Remember when he says that he’s both kind of scared and greatly respects women? It really rings true.
He’s genuinely concerned when you take blot accumulation lightly, and often joking about it as well. Like, don’t you know it’s life-threatening?? Then he remembers that you don’t accumulate blot. He would be worried if you still overblotted despite the 0% possibility.
He really doesn’t trust anyone besides Ruggie to make his food, but he most definitely won’t be trusting you any time soon. He’s heard from everyone that you never follow any sort of recipe, so he tries to get you to lay down with him so he’s sure that you aren’t in the kitchen.
He saw when he overblotted that not only did you summon literal demons to try and take him down, but you also used your own spells and hexes. Like bro… TAKE A CHILL PILL! Even in this form, he can still die!
In the infirmary room, you see Leona’s nephew (he’s probably told you about Cheka when he was trying to prevent you from going into the kitchen). The older beastman woke up to you cooing about who was an adorable chihuahua. He definitely wasn’t jealous.’
Tumblr media
Azul Ashengrotto
Probably tries to get you tied up in a contract for your magic but you explain that your magic isn’t unique to you. In fact, as long as someone summoned a few demons and forced them into a pact, you could learn from them. His glasses flew off his face when you told him that.
If you ever joke about overblotting, he gets very worried. You failed to explain that you don’t accumulate blot. The cecaelia knows that your magic is more powerful than any contract he can make, so your overblot would be deadly to even the Diasomnia dorm.
Once, he heard Grim was sent to the infirmary after trying one of your home-cooked ‘meals’. He was absolutely shocked. Then you ask him to try it because ‘It CaN’t Be ThAt BaD’. He told you that he was allergic to something you put in the dish and you left it alone.
When he overblotted, he counted 72 people he didn’t know. Then he realized that he didn’t sense any magic in them, just power. They were demons. He felt a tad bit betrayed and also a bit scared because he could possibly die.
In the infirmary room, you make sure to stay by his side until he recovers. I mean, you kinda just packed him the f up, so you felt obligated. You both made an agreement that you would help with the granting of wishes if he ever gets to a place where so many people want something.
Tumblr media
Kalim Al-Asim
Is absolutely amazed and intrigued by your magic because it’s not like anything he’s ever seen in the Scalding Sands or at NRC. He doesn’t even care that you could bring an end to someone’s existence with the snap of a finger.
However, he may tear up or full-on cry if you brought up a possible overblot because he knows that it’s both dangerous and life-threatening. Please explain to him that with the magic you use, you don’t accumulate anything.
Unfortunately, Kalim tells you that the only food he’ll eat is the food made for him by Jamil. There are no if’s, and’s, or but’s about it. Jamil most definitely wouldn’t allow it either because of the monstrosity you end up making in his kitchen.
When Jamil overblots, he hears you shouting out random incantations. Then he notices that your pact marks are glowing. He pieces two-and-two together and comes to the realization that you are summoning demons to help you take down Jamil. He is absolutely worried about his dear friend, but it is kind of necessary.
In the infirmary, you try and make Jamil some food as an apology for packing him the f up, but both he and Kalim refuse. Not only does the food smell horrible, it just looks horrible. Kalim politely refuses it while Jamil gives you a death stare.
Tumblr media
Vil Schoenheit
Feels downright threatened by your power, but also amused by it. Because not only are you stronger and better than Vil, you’re also stronger and better than Neige. He has a love-hate view towards you.
Don’t joke around with him about overblotting. He knows that you can’t exactly do that, but 1) everyone else still can and 2) the possibility is never 0. You would do better without jinxing yourself anyways. 
When you presented some food you made, everyone was astonished. Then Vil broke down in rage, yelling about how dare you make a more lethal poison than I??? You were confused because you just made food… not poison. You refused the crown of Housewarden of Pomefiore out of pure offense.
When Vil overblots, he knows that your first move is going to be an incantation of some sort. What he didn’t know was the exact incantation you were going to do. So imagine his unfortunate surprise when he sees a bunch of demons just appearing and attacking him.
In the infirmary, Vil is awake. You have a box with you and he looks at you with suspicion. You open it and it’s full of skincare items. You then bring in your friend Asmodeus to help you. The three of you have a little fun relaxing and getting him back to optimal health.
Tumblr media
Idia Shroud
Do you know how terrified he is of you? Sure, he’s not the most powerful person at Night Raven College, but to be this powerful?? You would have to be a UR+ character!!! Not just that, but he’s just terrified of people in general.
If you even think about joking around about overblotting, he’s gonna freeze. Can you even accumulate blot? He thinks about it, and he then realizes that Twisted Wonderland as a whole might be destroyed if you can actually overblot.
Would tell you straight up that he does not wish to eat your food. The eyes are literally blinking and looking at him. He feels more disturbed than ever. Is this even edible to humans? It’s more like a potion than actual food.
When he overblots, he probably already guessed that you had demon pacts because he’s played the game most likely. Plus, you use that kind of magic. To be fair, you weren’t exactly hiding it in the first place. What he couldn’t guess was how many demons and what abilities they had.
In the infirmary room, you offer to wheel in a TV and snacks and watch some anime with him. He looks at you shocked but you smile and say that the next episode of Chlorine is coming out after 10 years (iykyk). He has a very dopey smile as he settles in the bed and grabs a bag of chips.
Tumblr media
Malleus Draconia
He respects you a lot. You don’t meet a lot of people who are more powerful than the five powerful mages of Twisted Wonderland. To be fair, you don’t meet a lot of people who partake in the dark arts at all, but here you are.
If you joke about overblotting, he’s confused. Didn’t you say that you couldn’t overblot since you didn’t accumulate blot at all? He’s also worried because he wouldn’t be powerful enough to stop you before the blot killed you.
Would pull out every excuse in the filing cabinet of excuses to not eat either yours or Lilia’s food. The two of you just don’t seem to understand that your food is inedible, even for most fae or sorcerers. You both are just built different.
When Leona overblotted, Malleus was standing at a distance “so as to not get hurt”. He did see you, though, coming in like a knight in shining armor. You activated all 72 of your pacts just to tire Leona out so he didn’t die.
Lilia holds you in great respect, as well as Silver. However, Sebek wants to yell at you. He wants to be shouting in your ear that you’re a bad influence to Malleus because you partake in the dark arts. But he can’t

could u write some dating týr headcanons....
this request has been sitting in my inbox ever since týr was announced to be in the game earlier this year. i'm finally getting around to it because i promised myself i would write it as soon as i knew more about his character. well... he's here. it's time. enjoy! i set this before he got locked away by odin, but if you're interested in a version of this post ragnarök just let me know :)

dating týr headcanons
you've heard of týr!! everyone has, right? he's the god of war, yet a man who strives for peace. it's inspiring to hear his tales
he's a beloved god, treasured by everyone in all the realms. it isn't a surprise when he visits your home, surrounded by people who adore him. he makes trips to all of the realms, and he's been through a few times, but people never get tired of his company
for a god, he doesn't have an ego. you expected all gods to be the same, thinking themselves better than everyone else around them solely because of their godhood— but týr proved that to be untrue
you met him during one of those trips he made to your village. you ran right into him, your face being met with his chest. you apologized profusely, but all he did was assure you that it was okay
he asked for you to show him around, and a friendship quickly blossomed from that. he finds your culture and home captivating as he does everywhere else, and he finds himself wanting to return as soon as possible after he leaves
he likes you right from the beginning. you're kind to him, you don't treat him any differently than you would anyone else, and you become one of his favorite people in the blink of an eye
týr develops feelings first, and he'd be lying if he said it wasn't a bit scary
he hasn't felt this strongly about anyone else before you, and he doesn't want to tell you out of fear he'll ruin his friendship with you. he prioritizes that more than anything else
you end up reciprocating those feelings, but you don't tell him. after all.. he is a god. what kind of god would love a mortal like you?
though, you being a mortal is something that made him nervous about liking you as much as he did. he knows your time is limited, and it scares him. he wants as much time with you as possible so he spends it with you happily
he doesn't want to confess to you because he doesn't want to stress you out, either. he knows he's a god. he knows it would be scary to hear that a god has feelings for you. so he keeps quiet
until he can't anymore
he wasn't thinking when he said it. you were talking about.. something— he can't remember— but he blurts out, "i like you" and you fall silent
"oh, well. i like you too."
he swallows. "you misunderstand." he regrets it as he looks at your face, eyebrows furrowed with a confused gaze. "romantically. that's.. how i like you."
his tone is so soft... and your heart pounds against your ribcage. all you can do is laugh, take his huge hand in yours and smile. ".. i like you too. romantically."
týr thought his heart was going to explode and all he could do was stare at you, at your smile as you held onto his hand. he laughs, until he realizes you're being serious
he freezes up, eyebrows raised in a shocked expression. a dazed smile on his lips, and he asks if you'll go on a date with him sometime soon. his treat, of course
he has no idea where to take you or what to do. he wants it to be fancy, but not over the top. so.. he takes you out to his favorite restaurant. it isn't too classy, but he hopes you'll enjoy his company no matter the scenery
you have a great time, and he regrets not asking you out sooner if he knew this was going to be the outcome. no matter. he knows you like him now, and he wasn't going to let that go
he asks you to be his partner properly after a few days. he takes you somewhere beautiful in your favorite realm to pop the question. he knows not to worry too much about surroundings, but he wanted it to be special
of course.. you say yes! he's so giddy, happier than he'd been in a long time
onto actual relationship thoughts!
týr is a very giving person, so much so that his main love language is gift giving. he goes to plenty of places, other pantheons, everywhere you can think of, he's probably been
he returns with gifts for you, sometimes they were intended to him and others he bought thinking that they were something you would like. it's very sweet
you have a lot of space taken up in your room from things he's brought back to you. not like you're complaining, though. it does make you feel loved and appreciated, knowing that he thought about you in those moments
he regularly participates in ALL of the love languages, to be honest
quality time is a big thing for him. he's often busy, but when he gets to be with you he cherishes it. he clears his schedule to spend more time with you
acts of service! he'll take care of you if you're feeling sick, or upset, or if there's something you just don't feel like doing. týr is always going to be there for you and he shows it by helping you out with anything
as a diplomat, he has a special way of words. he tells you verbally how much he cares about you often, complimenting you even if you don't believe his words to be true
he loves holding you in his arms, too. týr's 8'5" (256cm) and he is MUCH bigger than you. it's very easy for him to dwarf you in size and it's something he thinks is really adorable
he picks you up pretty often, unless you express that you don't like it. he'll just lift you up to where your eyes meet his and seeing your feet dangling off of the ground never fails to make him laugh
he loves hugging you. you make him feel safe. he knows he's the god of war, he knows he's powerful, and he knows that he can protect himself and you if it comes around to it. but whenever your arms wrap around his waist to hug him.. it makes him feel so protected
he makes you feel safe, too. he'll tell you all the time about how he'd do anything for you, going the extra mile to prove it by actually doing anything and everything you ask him to do for you
týr's height is something you actually really love about him. seeing him duck down to fit into the doorway of your home always makes you laugh. he loves seeing you happy :")
he's the one who said i love you first
it just happened. the two of you were sitting together, casually talking about your days apart when he tells you he loves you through his soft laughter
you take a moment, and you smile, telling him you love him too
he doesn't even realize he said it until you fall silent, but his heart explodes when he hears you say it back. he's glad he told you, so now he can say it without worry whenever he so pleases <3
he would love to take you with him to other pantheons, but he knows he would worry for your safety so he doesn't bring you with him
and... he loves the reunions you have whenever he comes home. it's so cute to him to see your face light up whenever you see him on your doorstep <3
his kisses.. filled with so much love, respect and adoration
he would hold your face in his hands, trying really hard not to smile against your lips as he kisses you. his hands are nearly as big as your head, he can't help it
how he kisses can depend on his mood. usually, they're slow and passionate, but on days where he's frustrated or annoyed, they can be fast— rough
no matter what, he's gentle with you
he's gentle with your heart, your body, mind and soul. he cherishes you and wants nothing more than to keep you safe for as long as he can
he loves you. he'll love you for as long as he lives, and after he dies— he'll love you <3

Absolutely OBSESSED with the idea of Ted being a dad to a baby girl.
She’s a daddy’s girl from day one. She’s particularly fussy one night because her dad isn’t there. There’s a game happening which you have playing on the television screen. Henry is conflicted because he wants to watch the game and support his dad’s team but he’s also trying to be in big brother mode and keep an eye on his sister at the same time.
You’re holding your daughter against your chest. When the TV pans over to Ted on the screen, she makes grabby hands towards the screen and saying “dada!” You smile down at her, “yeah that’s your dad. I know you miss him, but he’ll be home soon, I promise.”
When he finally does make it home, Henry runs to the door first to greet him.
“Hey little man!” Picking his son up and giving him a quick spin around the room, to which he giggles delightfully.
Sitting his son back down and focusing on taking off his puffer jacket and he glances up to see Henry looking at him.
“What’s up kiddo? Everything alright?”
Henry shakes his head and leans in closer to his dad. “It’s sissy.”
Ted’s stomach drops to the tops of his shoes at the thought of his baby girl being hurt.
He tries not to panic. He doesn’t know the full story and he’s sure if something were truly and severely wrong, you would have called. But he’s a father - and that feeling of ‘oh my god, if anything happens to my child, I think I might die’ naturally kicks in.
“Wh-what’s wrong? Is she hurt?”
“No. I think she just really missed you.” Henry’s already dashing into the other room and ted’s fear dissipates. He’s following his son’s footsteps, peaking his head around the corner and sure enough, there’s his little girl making grabby hands towards him and squealing “dada!”
“Hey there sweet pea!” He’s grabbing her off her chest while leaning down to give you a kiss. You lean into his ear, “I’m gonna spend some time with Henry. I think the two of you need some daddy-daughter time.”
“What do you say angel, you wanna hang out with daddy? I can make you some chocolate milk, just how you like it, heavy on the chocolate and light on the milk.”
When you peak your head in later to check on them, there’s Ted and your daughter, chocolate milk in hand, giggling away like best of friends.
i don’t know which of you MOTHERFUCKERS keeps putting absolute gut punching fics in my inbox…
but please, for the love of god, keep them coming
i love the idea of jason with a baby, especially a baby girl (which we may or may not see in the coming JRU fic 👀)
but the idea of TED with a baby girl?? be still my fucking heart. i really want to have a mini me daughter. i’m a mini me of my mom and we’re super close, i really want that with a daughter of my own. but what i wouldn’t give to see ted lasso and a daddy’s girl. like, yes, please make me the chopped liver second choice if he’s the first choice.
and of course henry is just the best big brother ever because duh. he really is becoming his father and i just love it so much (shout out to @calzone-d’s most recent fic that perfectly captures this). henry, bless his little heart, had no clue the fear he put in his dad when saying something was wrong with his sister. ted would give up his entire annual salary to never feel that way again but let’s be honest, he feels that way at least two times a week because he’s so nervous about something happening to either of his kiddos.
the idea of watching ted coach with henry and our baby girl makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside (i think it may need to be added to my wip list). god, she just wants her daddy and he’s so close! she can see him right there on the screen! yet somehow he can’t hear her yelling for him and just like, rude.
he’s so happy to spend some time with his little girl when he gets home. he missed you all so much but he worries so much about missing any of her big milestones at work (even when he’s at nelson road, not even gone for an away game (but let’s be honest, ever since baby girl came, he tries to bring y’all with for every away game because he just can’t be away from his family)). he’s also always worried about her because she’s so young, she can’t understand why he’s away so often like henry can. keep in mind, he’s not actually away that often, it’s the same as really any job, she just has over a dozen extra protective big brothers, yet he’s still so worried that his absence will effect her. so when he comes back, he’s excited to see you all, but he loves that girl up so much.
