#ok lads percy out!

[dream-with-a-fever]

Asks/prompts about hinny:

I’m forever a sucker for the Weasleys finding out about them dating and what their reactions might be - when do you think each family member found out and how did it go?

Have a lovely day xx

oh i loooooove this question!!!

okay so i think ron 100% tells the twins straight away, just like ginny had with him and lavender, and they’re ofc thrilled. they definitely would’ve given harry shit and teased ginny about her life long crush returning her affections lmao - but given that they were broken up by the time they saw the twins again, i think fred and george were more sensitive about it. they hated how down ginny was after the breakup, and treaded lightly with their teasing during that time. i think george would’ve resumed the teasing a few years after the war, when he was in a slightly better place mentally. but he loved harry like a brother, and knew how happy he made ginny and vice versa. and he knew fred felt the exact same way :’)

i feel like percy wouldn’t have known anything about harry and ginny dating, but he would’ve been very business like in his approval of their coupling. saying ‘so pleased to have you as part of the family, harry’ in his pompous but still warm manner. he definitely felt mostly guilty about the way he had treated harry (and his family, but in terms of politics, he really did throw harry to the dogs) and is overly polite in his company, to try and make up for his past behaviour. he thinks they’re well matched if a little chaotic.

i LOVE the headcanon that bill literally assumed harry and ginny were already together during the christmas break in harry’s sixth year. he noticed the way harry’s eyes lit up whenever she spoke, caught him staring at her several times, ginny’s playful (but totally platonic…) teasing and touching of harry. she bullied the boy into helping her make all the paper chains, like bill definitely thought this boy is WHIPPED. and when he asks ron and ron’s all WHAT no they are NOT dating are you CRAZY bill’s like wtf ok. so he’s not at all surprised when he finds out that they did in fact get together. obviously bill approves, knowing how deeply and unabashedly they love each other, he thinks it will last.

charlie found out around the same time bill did, and he was happy for them. but didn’t really have an opinion either way, because he was often still in romania or other parts of europe working. he thinks harry‘a a good lad tho, and knows he’s basically part of the family anyway so it works out pretty nicely

now with ron, we see a lot of his reaction in the books anyway, but i 100% think ron was supportive of the relationship, i mean he literally tells ginny she should choose someone better next time and nods at harry??? like he may have been protective but he ultimately knew harry was a good guy, and that if he could trust anyone to take care of his sister and be a good partner for her, it would be him. i also think contrary to other peoples’ opinions, he isn’t like jealous nor does he feel like he’s been replaced by ginny in harry’s life. they’re BESTFRIENDS. nothing is ever going to change that - he knows this. and you can bet he was not at all unhappy about the newfound alone time he was getting with hermione :)) he was their biggest supporter (maybe second biggest - behind hermione ofc). and despite the initial shock of the common room kiss, i think he’s very much, yeah i called it years ago, it was bound to happen. and now i have another brother!!! it’s so so wholesome. and you just know ginny, ron and harry get on as a trio anyway. two of his favourite ppl together, ofc he’s happy.

now arthur and molly!!!!!! i wish we got to see more of their reactions tbh. i think arthur, like bill, probably thought they were already together during that christmas break, but never mentioned it to anyone except molly. who dismissed it at first, saying ginny got over her little crush ages ago, but she keeps a close eye on them after that, and definitely starts to see what arthur’s seeing. when ginny writes home telling them that her and harry are in fact seeing each other, molly weeps tears of pure delight. he’s basically a son to her anyway, and she couldn’t be more pleased that they’ve found happiness together. but she definitely is a bit nervous about how close now TWO of her children are to harry bc he’s a target, and bc he always lands himself in sticky situations (she doesn’t blame him ofc) but she worries non stop because he is so brave, selfless and stubborn and so are her children, and she’s well aware that they all seem to encourage each other’s somewhat reckless impulses (see, ron and harry flying a car to hogwarts, all three rushing to the ministry as a bunch of teens to fight death eaters etc). after the war, she is just happy for them tho. and despite being initially strict about hermione and ginny staying in their room, and ron and harry staying in theirs, she definitely starts to look the other way, when she spots harry creeping down the hallway in the early hours of the morning to sneak into her daughter’s room. he freezes when he sees her, clamming up, incredibly embarrassed, but she merely smiles and nods in the direction of the ginny’s room as if to say, well, go on then, because she too knows what it is to struggle through many a sleepless night worrying about loved ones, suffering trauma and loss, and needing to be close to the one you love the most. and arthur feels the same way. and he’s thrilled that now he’ll have even more opportunities to badger harry about how washing machines work, and why muggles dress up as witches and monsters on halloween.

what can i say, harry and ginny are a very, very loved couple. by the weasley family, and a lot of others too. they’re just too precious.

i hope you have a wonderful day too, and thank you for this ask! 🤍

My Mummy and My Simon

Fandom: Ted Lasso

W/C: 1.5k

A/N: Ok, I'm back with a fic, but fair warning it isn't a tickle fic. This has been rotting in my drafts for months and I just happened to be struck by the inspiration stick today. I hope you enjoy anyway!

“This is my Mummy and my Simon.”

It was how Jamie had introduced them for as long as he could remember. When he was a lad, he felt special when he said it - everybody and their Mummy had a Da, but Jamie was the only one with a Simon.

Jamie didn’t see them as often nowadays, with the distance between Richmond and Manchester, but he suspects that if he had anyone to introduce them to, that was still how he would do it.

He wasn’t sure why he was thinking about it, to be honest, while he stared at today’s post on his kitchen island. His housekeeper usually brings it in when she arrives and leaves it for Jamie to sort through. It’s rarely anything special - who uses the post anymore? - just the usual notices from the town and sometimes one of those circulars with coupons from the Tesco. Jamie wasn’t really sure why he felt so sick when he looked at it that day, until his brain processes what his eyes have already seen - the neatly typed James Tartt, Jr. across the front of one of the bills.

Jamie hated his full name with a passion - forever a reminder of the man who haunts his nightmares, the man who Jamie himself could become if he’s not careful. Jamie grimaced and turned away, forcing back the memories of what had happened when James overheard him telling someone that he lived with his Mummy and his Simon.

Simon was an odd duck, to be sure, but then again so was Jamie. He was a large man, still taller than grown-up Jamie, but he never made Jamie feel small or unsafe. Jamie was pretty sure it was impossible for Simon to make anyone feel that way, with his soft pastel jumpers and his obsession with that baking show and his job at the library. When it took Jamie so much longer than the other kids to learn to read, Simon never said a word about it, just gifted Jamie CD’s that Simon had recorded of himself reading Jamie’s favorite books for Jamie’s eighth birthday. He was pretty sure Simon didn’t know that after Jamie got his first Premiere League cheque, he had paid someone to put the recordings on his new phone. Jamie still listened to Simon’s voice read Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief when he came down with a cold.

Jamie fixed himself a post-training smoothie and sighed. Roy was bringing Phoebe over for Jamie to babysit since Roy had a coaches meeting and Ruth was busy saving lives at the hospital. Jamie idly washed out his blender, thinking of Simon and Mummy and how he really should give them a call soon. He was so lost in thought he didn’t hear Roy and Phoebe let themselves in before they were in his kitchen and Roy said, “Why the fuck do you get that wanker’s post sent to your house?”

Jamie whirled around, hand on his racing heart, before he processed what Roy was saying. “What?”

“Hi Jamie!” Phoebe waved cheerfully before going right over to the coffee table where he had gotten out the coloring books he kept specifically for Phoebe Days.

“Why is your arse of a father getting his post here?” Roy restated, gesturing to the pile of mail on the counter. “Thought you said you didn’t talk to him anymore?”

“I don’t,” Jamie said, confused. “That’s my post.”

Roy did a double take. “You’re named after that piece of shit?”

“Yeah.”

“Why didn’t you change it?”

“I did change it.” Jamie said. “Don’t go by James, now, do I?”

“I meant legally,” Roy explained. “So you don’t have to be fucking James Tartt Jr. in the fucking public record.”

“You can do that?” Jamie asked, incredulous, just as Phoebe called, “That’s five pounds so far, Uncle Roy!”

“Put it on my tab,” Roy called back. “And yeah, you can do that, you muppet. Costs like fifty pounds and might take a couple of weeks for the paperwork to come back, but you can do it. I still badger Ruth sometimes to change her name back to Kent, but she doesn’t want the fucking publicity.”

“Huh,” Jamie said, a whole new world of possibilities opening up before him. Roy kissed Phoebe goodbye and left for his meeting, and Jamie and Phoebe spent the afternoon coloring and playing kickabout in the yard.

***

A few days later, Jamie found himself on some government website, since you can do everything on the internet these days. He carefully typed Jamie into the form where it asked for what he wanted his new first name to be, cause it would be super embarrassing to have a typo and then have to do the whole thing all over again. The next box asked if he wanted to change his middle name, and Jamie paused. He hadn’t thought about that.

Jamie thought of James. He thought of Mummy, and he thought of Simon, and found he didn’t really need to think about it at all.

***

Simon’s birthday rolled along, and Jamie made the usual arrangements to donate to the library in Simon’s name. He’d done it every year since he could scrounge up the money, mowing lawns of council estates after Under-10’s training and looking after neighborhood kids until he had enough for a ten or fifteen pound donation. It never failed to bring a tear or two to Simon’s eyes, even now that Jamie had more money than he knew what to do with and made monthly donations to Simon’s library anyway, not that Simon knew that.

Jamie packed a bag to go and visit Manchester for Simon’s birthday, and as he printed his receipt showing the library donation to give to Simon, his eyes lingered on the email he’d received from the Royal Courts of Justice, notifying him that his change of name had been processed successfully. Before he could talk himself out of it, Jamie printed that off too, carefully folded it up with the donation receipt, and placed it in a small gift bag patterned with cheerful yellow ducks. It was made for kids, but Jamie knew Simon would appreciate it.

The drive to Manchester wasn’t too long, especially once Jamie put on Simon’s narration of the second Percy Jackson book. He’d made it through a good fifteen chapters by the time he was pulling his flashy car into the old familiar row of council estates.

Georgie shrieked, as she always did, when she flung open the door to her ‘sexy little baby!’ and Jamie picked her up and swung her around. 

Simon’s familiar, “Oh, there they go!” sang in Jamie’s ears as he put Mummy down and turned to wish Simon a happy birthday. 

The three of them migrated to the kitchen, Simon having made an impressive array of Jamie-friendly desserts. Georgie and Jamie sang an off-key rendition of Happy Birthday, and Simon pretended to conduct them with his candy thermometer. Soon enough, Jamie was pushing his be-ducked gift bag onto the table in front of Simon.

“Now, what could this be?” Simon grinned as he snagged the donation receipt from among the tissue paper. He unfolded it and, to no one’s surprise, unsuccessfully blinked back tears. “Oh, Duckie, thank you so much!” he said, and launched into an explanation of the new kids learn-to-read program that the donation would fund for the next year.

Not expecting anything else, Simon placed the receipt back in the bag and reached for Georgie’s gift. “Actually, there’s one more thing in there,” Jamie said sheepishly.

“More!” Simon mouthed amazedly to himself as he went back to the yellow bag. Jamie watched with anticipation as Simon drew out the email and carefully unfolded it, squinting his eyes a bit as he began to read.

Jamie watched as a dumbfounded look came over his stepfather, and he opened his mouth to start to say he could always change it back, but before he could Simon looked up at Jamie and burst into tears. Georgie startled, and Jamie leapt up in alarm, not sure whether to run away or try and comfort him. Simon made the decision for him when he stood and threw his arms around Jamie, still sobbing noisily.

Jamie, bewildered, gingerly patted Simon on the back, before swallowing and asking, “It’s alright then?”

Simon just sobbed louder, clumsily running his fingers through Jamie’s hair as Georgie muttered, “What on earth?” and snatched the paper from her husband’s hand. Before long, she too was sobbing, though still quite a bit more composedly than Simon. There, clearly written on the page, were the words: Official Change of Name - Jamie Simon Tartt.

Eventually everyone calmed down enough for Simon to say that it was more than alright, that he loved Jamie so much, that he was so honored by Jamie’s choice, and that was enough to get Jamie and Georgie with the waterworks again, Simon himself following not long after. 

They sat on the sofa for the rest of the evening, watching old reruns of Simon’s baking show and eating too many of Simon’s desserts. Jamie sat between his Mummy and his Simon, who wouldn’t let go of his boy for anything, relishing in the evening spent with his family.

Temporary Partners

Vax’ildan x Fem!Reader

MDNI (it’s not smut but it strongly hints)

It started out as any other job, the main difference was this was probably the wealthiest individual you’ve had as a target, now it wasn’t anyone of high importance just another prick with much gold stroking his ego on the daily. You were more than willing to go to an event such as a ball or gala to intermingle yourself into the crowd and snatch the precious item you were sent to retrieve, to you that was childs play.

It wasn’t difficult for you to snake your way inside the home of this man with the crowd of high class people piling in with there multiple “plus-ones” you found it a little too easy if you’re being honest.

“Nothing a little ‘makeup’ can do” the so called makeup being a disguise spell, the dress was real be it with a few added glam elements, a gem accent here a sparkle there and they were hooked. Not standing out but also not out of place. Perfect.

As one does you scan the room for a few reasons; 1. To get a layout of the building, how it flows, escape routes and such, where precious items may be held. 2. The people, who was here, who to interact with and who to stir clear from.

As you were doing such your eyes fell upon a rather unique group and after a moment you pieces together that it was the infamous Vox Machina lads, mainly the loud and socially awkward Goliath and overly flirtatious Gnome being the main giveaways, but one character stood out from this ragtag team. A half elf man who looked like he wanted to be anywhere else but here, the dark locks of hair slicked back and his sharp features were enough to even make you gawk if even just for a moment, but unfortunately you do have a job to do and now wasn’t the time to get caught by anyone, let alone these guys.

While stirring clear from them as much as you could you intermingled with the guests, making stories about this and that and how you were invited among other small talk that you could frankly live without. You excuse yourself from one of the groups you were talking to, making your way to the stair case to search for this heirloom. As comes wealth comes locked doors and that was your first guess on where to look, picking locks was typically nothing that you’d sweat about but it was going to be a little difficult to do it smoothly with the amount of traffic these halls had. Maybe you’d have to stay a bit later when people had more alcohol in their system. You sighed annoyed by the fact you couldn’t just be in and out like you wanted to. Oh well, might as well eat while you’re here, who turns down free food?

You waltz back down the stairs and over to the buffet table, your hunger driving you on autopilot as you fill your plate. As you were loading a slice of meat onto your plate you bumped into someone “oh! Terribly sorry-“ you look over and see a while haired fellow with glasses. “Oh no no madam, that was my fault. I should’ve been more observant, please allow me.” This gentleman finished plating the meats and surrounded side dishes onto your plate with your instructions on portions. “Quite the gentleman, and you are?” You held out your hand for him to take, without missing a beat he took your hand in his and bowed slightly. “Percival. Or Percy,” he introduced himself. You gave him some alias you had in your back pocket as he went about his way. As you watched him leave you saw him regroup with that Vox Machina, well he seems to be the most sane one of the group so you figured it would be fine. (far from it but ok pop off)

As the party continued through the night the crowd wasn’t quite as full but it was extremely lively. This was your chance to sneak away, the host being occupied with ladies fawning over him for one reason or another. You slip back upstairs and start making your way into some of the locked away doors. It didn’t take long to find the room you were looking for. You lock the door behind you and began your search, this damn pocket watch better be worth the hassle. You found it in an extravagant jewelry box, in the middle on full display. It was as if he was asking to get robbed. You replace the spot with a much lesser ordinary pocket watch to fuck with him a bit. You were grinning to yourself, knowing your job was nearly done.

“Aren’t you a sneaky little thing.” An unknown voice chirped quietly, causing you to dart your gaze over. Hand prepped to grab your dagger strapped under your hip. It was that half elf man you saw earlier. What was his name? “I- I didn’t hear you.” You put on a smile as if you weren’t doing anything wrong. “You gave me quite the fright! I don’t believe we’ve met.” The man walked towards you with a saunter, flirtatious even. “The name is Vax, and who are you beautiful?” My Gods he was attractive, you didn’t mind this private meeting, well you kind of did considering he fucking saw you steal the pocket watch. You gave the same Alias as before and he chuckled “Okay, what’s your real name?” He asked, your eyebrow raised. He was good, considering you didn’t hear him enter the quiet room in the first place. He was extremely good. “Y/n. How did-“

“A thief knows a thief.” He winks. “Unfortunately for you, I also need that pocket watch.” He held out his hand, asking for you to give it to him. What did he take you for? “Excuse me??” You ask, brows furrowed. “Like I’m just gonna hand this over to you. Dream on, pretty boy.” Vax kissed his teeth with a smirk. “You think I’m pretty do you?” He leans closer, putting each hand on either side of you onto the dresser behind you. Trapping you between his arms. “The feelings mutual. So how are we gonna sort this out hm?” He asks.

You lick your lips and grin. “If you’re as good as you think you are how about this. I give this to the man who hired me, get paid. I help you steal it back you can give it to whoever hired you. We both get paid and nobody is the wiser. Deal?” You ask, his smirk only grew. “Keep talking to me like that and you might get in trouble.” He purred. His attraction towards you wasn’t even attempted to be hidden. “Well we should probably get out of-“ you were cut off by the sound of the door opening, shit. Before you could react you felt a pair of warm lips on yours, the faint taste of wine and fruit on your tongue. Hands onto your hips and one behind your neck.

The host gasped and angrily shouted “What do you think you’re doing in here!! Get out! This is my private courtiers!” Vax acted surprised and you followed in suit. “O-oh! Mr. Vanderse! My apologies!! The lady got a wee bit impatient and the door was open, we meant no disrespect. We’ll be on our way.” He took your hand and led you out while you acted bashful and dodged his gaze. The host merely hugged as you two left and shut the door.

You touched your lips softly as you two walked out, that was a hell of a cover and it made sense for the environment. “Smart thinking back there.” You complimented and Vax laughed slightly. “Oh please, who wouldn’t want to do that with such a pretty face.” He looked back at you and winked. “Although I hate to admit it, he’s probably gonna notice it being missing so you must make haste.” He smiled. “Come with me, wouldn’t it be easier so you know where to go?” He shook his head. “When he comes to the realization he’s going to come looking for us, he can search me and find nothing, just hurry back and when you return he can search you as well. Don’t worry I’ll occupy him.” You were taking a big risk trusting someone you just met. But you figured you could wiggle your way out of it if need be.

You do just that, sneak out and hurry back to your employer, delivering it and getting your payment and making your return. As you sneak your way in, you see Vax and Mr. Vanderse in a conversation, the hose seeming anxious and frustrated. You and Vax make eye contact and you make your way over to him confidently. “Sorry Love, I just needed some fresh air. Oh!” You fake a bashful avoidance to the host and shyly greet him. “A-ah Mr. Vanderse. Hello again, I must apologize for earlier, seeing me in such a state- it’s very embarrassing.” You ‘apologize’ for the scene he walked in on from earlier. He cleared his throat. “All is forgiven but I’ve seemed to have lost something and I must search you, it was ok that room you were in.” You agree and you were searched by one of the servants, obviously finding nothing on your person. Vax casually wrapping his arm around your waist. “Can’t wait til I can touch you like that later my love.” He ‘whispered’ loud enough for anyone in close earshot to hear, you actually blush and playfully hit him in the chest “Darling!” You couldn’t help but like this ‘partner in crime’ scenario. The night went about as normally as it could now, you being close to Vax for the rest of the evening until it was about time to leave, he had went to his group and basically said he was going to finish the job and they could have fun and he’d meet them later at the inn.

You and him exited the party and you immediately start taking off the dress, his eyebrow raising. “Isn’t it a little early for this? It’s such a public place too.” He teased as you rolled your eyes and showed that you had clothes underneath the gown. It was shorts and a simple top but it did the job. You dispose of the now plain dress into a bin, it wasn’t yours and you didn’t care. “Think I’m that easy huh?” You ask the tall half elven man. “Well you did let me makeout with you” he chuckled. “I dare say you liked it.” You laugh a bit and shake your head “Oh please, if that’s the best you could do then I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to keep up love.” You were confident in your love making skills and honestly you rarely found someone to be a good lay. You typically finished yourself off afterwards. But this man grabbed your hips and pulled you close. “You haven’t even seen the beginning of what I can do. Don’t get too cocky now.” He winked at you yet again and boy did it get you going. What was it about this individual having such a hold on you already.

“Let’s hurry up and finish this and maybe you can prove it to me?” You pulled away and swayed your hips as you walked ahead of him, knowing his eyes were undressing you. You didn’t mind one bit, you wanted him to fantasize about it. He made quick work about going in and out, you distracting the employer, asking about possible other jobs, making conversation. As you said your good nights to one another you exited the building and saw Vax hold the restolen pocket watch. “Easy.” He stated as you began to walk with him to his employers place, the whole ordeal didn’t take long and it went smoothly, even with the hiccups of the evening. Once all was said and done he looked at you and grabbed your chin, lifting your gaze up to him. “So, were you serious about me proving it or were you just telling me what I wanted to hear?” You smirked up at the man and closed the distance between you, kissing him deeply. “You talk too much.” You whispered and led him to your place to have a rather fun night. It was hot it was heavy and you finally felt satisfied with someone you fucked. This definitely wouldn’t be a one time thing.

Previous Chapter

Parent's Weekend, the days Évangéline hates the most. After seeing the loving families when she arrives after the summer, she hates this even more. Families act like they haven't seen their kids in hundreds of years. Every year, no one came to see Évangéline. She once asked her father why, his excuse was; 'I'm too busy with work.'.

As she leant against the balcony, watching her principal giving a speech. "Nevermore was created as a safe haven for our children to learn and grow no matter who or what they are." Weems was met with a round of applause for the oh so original speech. "I realise most of you have heard about the unfortunate incident involving one of our students." She was talking about Eugene. Évangéline had never really spoken to the younger boy, all she knew that he was a loner who enjoyed bees.

Rolling her eyes at the rest of what Weems was saying, she turned going to walk away. Only to be met with a figure she wasn't expecting. "Oh mon Dieu! [oh my gosh!] Xavier!" She held a hand to her chest, steadying her breathing. "What are you doing here?" She anxiously fixed her hair.

"Not sure how much of this family togetherness I can take." He leaning against the barrier of where she was. "Sorry for scaring you." He awkwardly smiled.

"Are you ok?" Évangéline tilted her head, "You look very, red?" Was he blushing? Over her? Was this progress? Going off of what Bianca had said last weekend?

"Oh, yeah." He scratched that back of his neck, brushing over the scabbed over wound. "Just peachy." Just peachy? What is he, stupid? "I just, you know, went on a run." He talked with his hands, pushing his point further.

Évangéline turned towards the quad, looking for anyone that resembles Xavier. "Is, um, anyone here today? For you." Évangéline asked, finding anyway to not makes eye contact.

"No, my dads a no show. Again." Xavier pushed his hands deep as possible into his pockets and scuffed his foot. "I got a text this morning." Then, he looked around. Seeing if anyone resembled his Angel. "Anyone here for you?" He noticed the disheartened look she had.

"My dad has never visited. Always says 'works busy', it gets annoying after a while." Évangéline shrugged, closing her arms around her body.

"That's no way to talk young lady." His voice made Évangéline and Xavier freeze, for two different reasons. Xavier was scared of being told off for being with the girl and being partly the reason she looked upset, and obviously never hearing that voice in his life. Évangéline had a mixture of excitement and resentment. Her dad was here, yay. But also she was having a one on one with Xavier. And he's never bothered to show his face before.

Évangéline didn't know whether she would cry with happiness or run away crying out of frustration. "Dad." She dragged on, awkwardly smiling.

"Whose this young man?" He smiled, an odd behaviour for him, "No wait. You're Vincent Thorpe's boy. Aren't you?" His behaviour was confusing Évangéline. Why was he here? Why is he being so nice? Especially after he's caught her with a boy. Alone! What happened to the "No boys" rule?

"Uh, yes. Yes sir." Xavier nodded, stuttering his words. He was also confused.

"I knew that man when it was our days here, not spoken in a while. Send him my greetings." The smile would not leave his face. "C'est un bon garçon Evie." [he's a good lad Evie.] Her father winked.

Évangéline was immediately was embarrassed by this. "Papa arrête!" [Dad stop!] she whisper shouted, even though she was 99% sure Xavier couldn't understand a word in French; seeing he has a very confused and awkward face.

"Well, me and Evie will be off." At her fathers statement directed at Xavier, she was confused. Off? Off to where? "Hope to see you soon Xavier." And with that Charles had walked off.

"Oh mon Dieu,"[Oh my gosh,] Évangéline cursed. "You heard him, bye Xavier. And, uh, sorry." She walked off, avoiding eye contact. Xavier wasn't mad, he was giddy. He had an irascible smile on his face.

He loved it when she spoke French.

Me @ Percy, Calvary, Thade, Heartfelt, Susan, and Janice: I'm bestowing upon you the greatest honor I can give. Being asexual (aro/ace in Heartfelt's case).

Lillian is trans, and Dr. Mort (who in my version is absolutely nothing like the one on the wiki because I hate wiki Mort with a passion) helped with her transition. She and Thade are a t4t couple.

I have absolutely no clue what's going on between Horace and Skin-taker but it is the fruitiest thing and for all intents and purposes I've decided to refer to them as "the terrible husbands."

Credit to @thedivisionbell1994 for this idea from a while back but Janice being trans? Janice coming to Candle Cove and since it's a world based on her inner self and imagination everyone just immediately used she/her and Janice to refer to her without her having said anything, and even when she didn't entirely know what being trans meant she thought "hey yeah that feels right!" and that was that? *Chefs kiss* baby girl!

Percy, Thade, and Lillian were in the most chaotic QPR polycule. They all got married one day cuz they were bored and for pirate tax benefits. Triple threat the lot of them.

Dr. Mort (who again is VERY different in my version) and Boar were also two gay pirate grandpas who were very married and very deeply in love. Mort would climb Boar like a cat. Dog and Cat couple if you will.

*points to the Rubber Fishes crew* FRUIT SALAD!!!!!!!!

Both Sunny and Bloody Kimothy use he/she pronouns.

I think this could be considered canon since on their wiki they're referred to with they/them and their gender is never confirmed, but Nicola is 100% a nonbinary icon and they and Henric are married for pirate tax benefits as well.

*points to Milo and Henric* FUCKING DIVORCED THE BOTH OF YOU!

Skin-taker and Sariah are undead wlw mlm solidarity. No I won't explain myself.

Milo isn't homophobic but he is obnoxious. He'll find a way to both make fun of you and support you at the same time, and his sexuality is whatever would be funny in the moment.

Sunny, Sariah, and Susan are in love and very happy. Scary pirate lady, pretty but bad ass princess, and siren capable of unspeakable crimes lesbian polycule I don't take criticism.

Janice came to Percy one day and went, "Hey Percy I don't think I like guys is that ok," and Percy went, "Yeah of course! I mean everyone on this ship is already queer so-"

Abyssians don't really think about gender the same way humans do so when Thade came to Candle Cove and learned what pronouns were he wanted all of them. Collects them like pokemon cards the lad.

Don't get me wrong, I'm 100% on the ftm Percy boat, but hear me out: genderfluid Percy.

Milo: Are ye wearing a dress??? Percy: Aye. Why? Jealous ye don't get one? Milo, 100% jealous: ....no-

Janice: Are you gay? The Earl: I'm homophobic! Poppy: He's avoiding the question.

Idk if anyone even cares but here's my thoughts on the Gen 9 starters!

First off: they’re all really lovely designs, yes even Quaxly. Kudos to the artists! I’m in love with these beans!

Fuecoco: I’m a huge fan of 'mons that are creatures disguised as objects. Applin definitely comes to mind with this guy, and that’s my only complaint- why is the Fire-type 'mon based off an apple?

...actually hold on. hear me out here- doesn’t he look kinda like a chili pepper? That makes a lot more sense, I’d have to look up kinds of peppers but that might be the basis! Ok going off of that, he’s a Very Good Lad and I can’t wait to see the fiery alligator he evolves into :D

Sprigatito: Words do not express how much I adore this cat. Yes yes yes I know we have like 2 dozen cat 'mons already and i do not care

I am mostly indifferent to the quadripedal/bipedal debate, vaguely hoping the final evo will be quadripedal but I’m 90% sure they're gonna be bipedal. Not getting my hopes up.

Anyways I mostly just want 'em to have a flower theme going on, hopefully the national flower of either Spain or Portugal since that's where people think the region is based! I just think that the nice green of Sprigatito would mesh amazingly with either red carnations or with lavender ok

Quaxly: Ohohohoho. I am aware a few people don’t like how this guy looks so much like Ducklett but I for one love this little dude. He is *vibing*. Also I have *thoughts* about the final evo possibilities so strap in folks

ok so he’s a sailor duck right? And I'm thinking and thinking about what he could evolve into, maybe a swan of some kind? what’s a sailor thing that meshes with that for a name? Wait hold on what about boatswains

So I'd absolutely adore this guy to become something along the lines of Boatswan. A swan-like 'mon, with a sailor hat and probably coat, complete with a boatswain's call. I just think that would be SO neat! ....i may draw that when I’m off work

ok enough rambling byeeee

Sunny meets Camp Halfblood

Chapter 3

Percy slowly lowered his pen and took a step forward. "We're not here to punish you or anything. Um, you just kinda.. startled us."

The pale boy opened up his eye again and slowly sat back up. "So I'm not dead?"

Annabeth shook her head and crouched next to the bed to get to his level. "Don't worry. You're safe."

The boy eyed Annabeth for a moment before turning away. "You don't need to crouch down. I'm not a child, so don't patronize me..." he murmured just loud enough to be heard.

The remark caught them off guard and Annabeth awkwardly stood back up, clenching her fists a little. Percy knew exactly what she was thinking by the look on her face. Rude little twerp.

The boy slung his legs over the side of the bed, Chiron wheeling over to him. "Now, lad, I think it's best if you just stay laying down for a bit. We still don't know what happened to you."

The boy hunched his shoulders a bit before tucking his legs back under the blankets, his eyes now catching on Percy and Annabeth's shirts. "Am I at some sort of.. summer camp? I don't remember one being around.. unless one opened up in my time away..." The last sentence was muttered so quietly that Chiron, the one closest to him, was the only one who heard it.

"Umm...." Percy looked over at Chiron for further instructions, who gave him a slow, still unsure nod.

"This isn't any other summer camp," Percy continued. "This is Camp Halfblood!"

Sunny tilted his head and raised a curious eyebrow. "Halfblood?"

Percy plopped himself on the end of the boy's infirmary bed, causing him to jump a bit. "Tell me, kid. Have you ever learned anything about Greek Mythology?"

The boy's eyes go misty for a moment, as if recounting a forgotten memory before slowly responding with a drawn out, "Yessss.."

"Well, in those stories, there are tales of demigods, half-human and half-god!"

"Like Heracles," the boy added.

Percy looked at him in respect. "Wow, you actually used the proper pronunciation. But, yes. Anyways, long story short, but the gods are real and this camp is full of demigods."

The words came out super fast. Percy was always bad at the introductions. How could he explain it? It sounds wild.

The boy's eyes slowly, slowly widened before he closed them. "Ah. I get it. This is all in my head."

Dionysus, who had still been playing his game in the corner, couldn't help but cut in with a snide remark. "Like everything else you see?"

Annabeth had to do everything in her power not to kick the chair of the god. What a jerk! She looked back at the boy and her heart dropped when she saw his face.

"Hey, don't listen to Mr. D. He's a jerk, like, all of the time. To everyone. Don't take it to heart."

"Mr. D?"

"Oh, uh, ya. He's the camp director. Um, you know the god of wine and madness and stuff?"

"Dionys-"

"Don't say the name! Names draw attention and give power. But, ya. That guy over there is him."

The boy couldn't help but choke out a gasp of surprise. "He's a lot older than what I imagined."

"Going to ignore that, you little brat," Mr. D hissed.

"I just realized!" Percy exclaimed. "We haven't gotten your name yet!"

"I'm.. I'm Sunny.. Sunny Suzuki.. So, um.. I'm at a place.. called Camp Halfblood.. A camp for demigods.. sure.. I'll go along with it.."

"Nice to see you have the spirit.." Chiron said with an awkward laugh. "Now, we don't know who you may belong to.. so, we may have to put you with the Hermes kids.."

"Oh.. ok.."

"Cmon," Percy said, helping Sunny up. "I'll show you the way."

Sunny's legs wobbled as he stood. "'Kay.."

As they stepped outside into the golden rays of light, Sunny flinched a little as the light hit his face, but once his eyes adjusted, they shone from the beautiful sight of the camp.

"Sunny," Percy said, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Welcome to Camp Halfblood."

[oxalisvulcanicola]

There are a few passages from ACD that have nothing at all to do with Mycroft that give me strong BBC Mycroft vibes:

During my school-days I had been intimately associated with a lad named Percy Phelps, who was of much the same age as myself, though he was two classes ahead of me. He was a very brilliant boy, and carried away every prize which the school had to offer, finished his exploits by winning a scholarship which sent him on to continue his triumphant career at Cambridge. He was, I remember, extremely well connected, and even when we were all little boys together we knew that his mother’s brother was Lord Holdhurst, the great conservative politician. This gaudy relationship did him little good at school. On the contrary, it seemed rather a piquant thing to us to chevy him about the playground and hit him over the shins with a wicket. But it was another thing when he came out into the world. I heard vaguely that his abilities and the influences which he commanded had won him a good position at the Foreign Office[.] - Doyle, "The Naval Treaty" in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes.

I was, of course, familiar with the pictures of the famous statesman, but the man himself was very different from his representation. He was a tall and stately person, scrupulously dressed, with a drawn, thin face, and a nose which was grotesquely curved and long. His complexion was of a dead pallor, which was more startling by contrast with a long, dwindling beard of vivid red, which flowed down over his white waistcoat with his watch-chain gleaming through its fringe. Such was the stately presence who looked stonily at us from the centre of Dr. Huxtable’s hearthrug. - Doyle, "The Adventure of the Priory School" in The Return of Sherlock Holmes.

OK the last one is not spot on and a bit generic but like, if you read the entire story it's clear that this is quite the ice man.

Thomas and Friends: Tales from Sodor (Story 95): Coal Mine Ghost

Narrator: Coal Mine Ghost

Scene opens with Percy and Philip shunting coal cars in the Coal Mine

Narrator: One day, Percy and Philip were working at the coal mine, it was hard work

Percy: Phew, I can go for a wash

Just then, a ghostly sound was heard inside the mine

???: *echoed* Who’s there?

Percy: Hello? Is someone in there?

???: *echoed* Who are you?

Percy: My name is Percy

???: *echoed* Nice to meet you Percy, I am-

But before the voice can reveal the name

Percy: A ghost! *he blew his whistle and races off*

???: *echoed* I’m not a ghost

Scene cuts to evening at Tidmouth Sheds, where Percy is at, telling the others (Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Emily, Molly, Rosie, and Rebecca) about what happened

Percy: As soon as I shunted a line of cars, a voice was heard in the mine!

Rebecca: That’s very odd but creepy

Percy: I know! I think the Coal Mine is haunted!

James: Oh please Percy, there’s no such thing as ghosts

Percy: But I heard one in the mine!

Thomas: Percy, if you want me to believe it, I’ll be there

Percy: Ok Thomas

Scene transitions to the next day at the Coal Mine, Thomas arrived at the Coal Mine

Narrator: The next day, Thomas arrived at the coal mine

Thomas: Alright Percy, now where is this “ghost” your talking about?

Percy: He’s in the mine

Thomas: *puffed forward into the mine* Hello?

???: *echoed* Hello? Who’s there?

Thomas: *surprised* Your right Percy, there is something in the mine, I’m going in! *he blew his whistle and puffs in*

Percy: Thomas wait!

Thomas: *puffing down the mine* Hello? Mysterious voice, are you- *bumped into a small cabless engine, who was dirty in coal dust*

???: Oof!

Thomas: Oh, sorry about- Huh? Your not a ghost

???: Of course not lad!

Thomas: I’m Thomas, who are you?

Neil: It’s nice to meet you Thomas, my name is Neil

Thomas: Wait a minute, I heard all about you, I heard stories from Skarloey!

Neil: Skarloey? That’s the name I haven’t heard in many years

Thomas: Well, I’m getting you out of here Neil *couples up to Neil and puffs backwards as he pulled Neil*

Percy: Oh, I hope Thomas is all- *sees Thomas puffing backwards out of the mine* Thomas!

Thomas: Percy, I found your ghost! This is Neil!

Neil: Greetings Percy!

Percy: Hello Neil

Scene transitions to Sir Topham Hatt, who has arrived on Winston

Narrator: Later, Sir Topham Hatt arrived and he looked at Neil

Sir Topham Hatt: He’s the engine that Crovan’s Gate needed for shunting, I’ll request the Steamworks to have him fully restored

Scene transitions to Thomas and Percy puffing into Crovan’s Gate, Skarloey and Rheneas were there

Narrator: Later, Thomas and Percy arrived

Skarloey: Hello Thomas and Percy, what brings you two here?

Thomas: Skarloey, Rheneas, meet the new shunter for Crovan’s Gate

Rheneas: New shunter? What are you-

Neil arrived as he blew his whistle, he was restored to his original glory

Skarloey: *surprised* Neil? Is that you?!

Neil: Greetings Skarloey, it’s been a long time

Rheneas: I don’t believe it, I can’t believe your back, I thought you were scrapped

Neil: That’s what they thought, but no! I was left in a coal mine, and I like to thank Thomas and Percy for bringing me out of mine

Percy: It’s no problem Neil, at least you get to work with Skarloey and Rheneas again

Neil: Like old times

The 5 engines chuckle as the camera pans to the sunset

Steam Clouds rolled in

uhm warning, all caps, major Vox Machina spoilers for Percy's backstory many mentions of guns and me being gay-

JSSJHSSJSKXJDJS OK OK OK OK I'M PRETTY SURE, CORRECT ME I'M WRONG PLEASE, THAT NONE OF MUTUALS OR ANYBODY WHO FOLLOWS ME KNOWS ABOUT THE LEGEND OF VOX MACHINA BUT EITHER WAY I REFUSE TO SHUT UP ABOUT HIM-

SJSJKFKSKSKD BECAUSE FIRST OF ALL HE'S REALLY PRETTYYY AND AND LIKE HIS VOICE 😳😳😳

AND ALSO HE'S AN ARTIFICER- WHICH IS REALLY COOL BECAUSE IT'S A REALLY UNDERRATED DND CLASS AND AND LIKE HE'S A GUNSLINGER WHICH IS ALSO REALLY RARE TO SEE IN A DND CHARACTER AND LIKE AS AN ARTIFICER HE BUILDS HIS OWN GUNS-

LIKE HE STRAIGHT UP INVENTED HIS MAIN WEAPON THE PEPPERBOX-

KABDJAHnbahsNAHSJW BUT OTHER THAN HIM JUST GENERALLY BEING REALLY COOL AND SMART AND HELLA ATTRACTIVE I HAVE A LOT OF FLUFFY SCENARIOS IN MY HEAD THAT I HAVEN'T WRITTEN DOWN YET BUT I ALSO READ A FEW FICS AND HCS AND STUFF SADLY THERE ISNT VERY MANY OF THOSE BUT I STILL JUST LIKE CONSUME IT/POS

AND THERE'S ALSO A BUNCH OF SONGS I CAN ASSOCIATE WITH HIM AND KSKZJSJXHSJXSJSJSH OML- I JUST LOVE HIM VERY VERY MUCH

AND AND AND THE SONG HELL'S COMIN' WITH ME BY POOR MANS POISON JUST REMINDS ME OF HIM AND I AM GOING TO EXPLAIN WHY IN UNNECESSARILY LONG DETAIL BECAUSE I AM MENTALLY ILL ABOUT THIS POMPOUS-ARSE AND I MUST BE GAY

SPECIFICALLY THIS PART

WHEN IT SAYS "THERE WAS A DRIFTER PASSING THROUGH THAT LITTLE VALLEY, HE HAD PROMISED HE WAS COMING BACK TO TOWN" THE "LITTLE VALLEY" COULD BE PRECIVED AS PERCY'S HOMETOWN WHITESTONE WHICH WAS PRACTICALLY DESTROYED BY THE BRIARWOOD'S WHEN PERCY WAS A LAD AND AFTER MORE TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCES TOOK PLACE (I.E HIN BEING TORTURED AND HIS FAMILY BEING MURDERED ASIDE FROM HIS SISTER WHO HE SOON THOUGHT TO BE DEAD WHEN SHE FELL AND WAS BLEEDING IN THE SNOW WHEN THEY BOTH TRIED TO ESCAPE) AND SINCE HE RAN AWAY AND LIVED ON HIS OWN AFTER THAT HE SOUGHT OUT REVENGE ON THE BRIARWOOD'S FOR TAKING EVERYTHING FROM HIM SO LIKE "BUT HE COME BACK TO BURN THAT TOWN TO THE GROUND" COULD MEAN SORTA LIKE FIGURATIVELY TO REPRESENT PERCY'S VENGEANCE-

AND "THEY DIDN'T KNOW HIM BY HIS FACE OR BY THE GUN AROUND HIS WAIST" AS MOST OF THE SURVIVING PEOPLE OF WHITESTONE DIDN'T RECOGNIZE HIM WHEN HE DID RETURN TO WHITESTONE WITH THE REST OF VOX MACHINA AND SINCE HE'S A GUNSLINGER UHM... YEA-

ANY WAY MORE PRETTY MAN JUMPSCARE

[phoebehalliwell]

& vinceras enemies to lovers au where he wants to curse prue w his empathy but when she comes to help him he feels how genuine she is and it drowns out all other emotions, he starts to see the beauty in emotions, they fall in love. all children are born with empathy. p names. ideally none i've used before. paloma peggy (eyy it's a margaret name uwu) and paulette "lettie". paloma has. uh. empathy and enhanced strength levitation telekinesis. peggy has empathy deflection mimicry and immunity. lettie has empathy molecular immobilization, combustion, pyrokinesis.

& reece why? idk. bit of a wild card here. but like. if phoebe realized cole was evil and like was ready to take him down but had to beat reece to the punch idk maybe she saves him from the bitey drain your brain demons and she’s like fine clean slate demons are real and i’m a witch cole is a demon so let me finish this but no. reece is in. becomes a pi for magic cases. slowburn. not quite enemies to loves but like. ice slowly melting. realizing at some point you care for the other type thing. three kids once again, starting with patrik, who has um. premonition, astral projection, suggeston. then pollux, who has levitation, deflection, sensing. and finally, paxtun, empathy, molecular deceleration, and um. fuck it. hyperspeed.

paige

& finn he’s a golem! can he have kids? prolly not! but in this au he can!! (to jog your memory, he’s from the ep where they sister got shrunk down in early s4). um so kids. paige doesn’t seem like a boatload of kids gal so just one she’s a real artsy type fuck it terpsichore (kori for short). powers included um essentially invulnerability she’s not fully flesh and blood so if you cut her arm off she’s just be like hey >:( and either reattatch it later or make herself a new on and projection which is initially accessed through her art (i think like kaela in the reboot tho admittedly i did not watch s4)

& rowan he’s the sexy vampire who honesly was not That sexy but a girl can dream. we’ve got vamp witches!! three sisters, triplets, neither rowan nor paige were expecting that, both are like aaaaaa!! but are ready to commit to the bit. hey man um. laurel, willlow, and cherry. they all have essentially a “life link” to one another, they an all borrow one another’s strength and if one is mortally wounded the others can each take -50% hp to save her. beyond that, they each have telekinesis and shapeshifting. they also can drink blood to strengthen themselves. on top of that, if the drink the blood of a magical being, they can temporarily gain their powers. their blood heals others. they are unable to turn people into vampires

& seamus i’m hoping you wiped the terrible irish accent from your memory but it’s a leprechaun episode what did you expect! just one daughter. aoife i’m naming the baby after you. her name is aoife she’s a pisces. her powers def include rainbow colored orbing. she can grant luck. she has telekinetic rainbow-ing. <3

& jinny but how?? paige & jinny r gay? yeah but jinny’s a genie baby! she can do whatever the damn hell she pleases. so they have a daughter. pavaneh. conjuration. telekinesis. orbing. looking like a baddie 24/7.

WILD CARD:

evil enchantress & the prince what?? the evil enchantress had her evil spawn baby!! oh no!! surely the world will plunge into like 1,000 years of darkness. unless..... paige technically that’s ur body too. um. wanna be a mom? congrats! paige & co are raising the baby of the evil enchantress & the prince, and the baby gets some whitelightery elements from gestating in paige. it’s fuckin weird, but it 100% could have happened on charmed i promise. kid is named halli (pronounce like halle like halle berry) like the halli in halliwell. bc the kid will have the last name matthews. elemental conjuration for sure. we’ve got fire, air, water, ice, earth, plants, & lightning. the kid can also orb. bada bing bada boom!

Impression now

Ahh, Henry! In some ways, very much like Duck! Green, long nose, popular with the fans and I'm here like Yeah he's a good fixture of the series lol

Ok well, maybe I should disclaim that he's not one of my favourites, which is partly as I guess it's a bit hard to nail down his personality.

His, for lack of a better term, Illness Arc is fascinating and oddly Real for a series about machinery. Something's genuinely amiss with him, but the lack of a clear cause (at least, to the other engines, who presumably don't know he was built from stolen, incomplete plans and the logical issues that would arise from that) and his frequent complaints turn the other characters off wanting to hear about it, thinking he's exaggerating. Then the Welsh Coal stopgap is found! Then the very next story he has a horrible crash but it was a blessing in disguise because then he's rebuilt as a Black 5 and his health issues are gone forever! (ain't we envious of machines now?) Until Lazy Writer Disease sets in Meta-wise, but more on that later.

I think it's safe to say that it's Entry Level RWS Knowledge to know Awdry's frustrations with the character, and it is kind of hilarious how much he tried to write him out, and iirc Henry wound up with the most appearances and 'his' book has 5 stories instead of the uniform 4 for some reason. But it seems it takes further Lazy Corporate Mandates to actually write him out in BwBa which really sucks and is doing such an iconic lad horribly dirty.

Pictured: Henry as seen by Awdry/Mattel, who are about to just shove him out of the story with varying degrees of success.

Well yeah, for me I can't really settle on an opinion because he never seems to have anything solid after the Rebuild. He's kind of the nicer one out of the Terrible Trio, but sometimes he's as bitchy and obnoxious as Gordon without prompting. He seems to be pretty unlucky and sometimes his misfortunes are self inflicted, but they don't commit to this bit. He gets his (in)famous forest, much to Awdry's chagrin, but it does offer a nice gentler side to him. He also seems to be the main Fast Freight engine, particularly more Fish shipments, but this doesn't really inform his character. He all too often feels like a Spare, Green Gordon who's less full of himself (but still gets boughts of Envy and inflated self importance, like Tenders for Henry), and that's a shame because this nebulous lack of anything concrete seems to be why Bad TatMR Writing diagnosed him with Need Welsh Coal again for quite a long time (dunno if that only changed when Mattel/Brenner came in or not). But then the US dub makes him sound like w--dy all-n and that's the worst treatment of all! I kind of understand the temptation to make him the resident worrier but HUUURGHGHH NOT LIKE THAT

So yeah, the better characterization of him needs to strike a good balance of him being ...I guess a Gentle Giant, who enjoys nature and maybe is a smidge prone to bouts of feeling jealous. Maybe catches the engine version of colds more than the others because the early morning runs in the freezing air? I dunno, I'm trying to combine several traits that have been in Henry but never seemed to stick. But done properly, I could really get behind a nice, faceted character like that~

Favourite moment

It feels a bit mean to say, but it's due to the strength of the episode itself with the fantastic visuals, godly music and shocking drama (with a nice bonus of Correct Head Codes!) that put Flying Kipper at the top of this list!

Another part of this ep, is the beginning where the Driver is saying "Don't tell Gordon, but if you pull this nicely, the Fat Controller may let you pull the Express!". Like, that really squeezes my heart, because his driver is rooting for him, the prospect of a better regarded job is floating there, and knowing what eventually happens, it's like... oof! But in a good way.

...Also I think that must have been something Awdry added after deciding not to kill him off because having that bit and for it to all go up in flames would have made children and me extremely upset and he would have been buried under letters of complaint from angry mothers of the time.

Idea for a story

Other than the overly simple and grimdark "he was in fact killed that day" type coma inducers, I suppose the Two Henries theory being explored could offer some interesting interactions.

Like, what if the Henry who rolls back into The Big Station is instantly accepted and in fact, liked more than og Henry? What if the other engines instead couldn't fully relax around him? Were his memories perfect? Too Perfect?

And what would happen if OG Henry were later discovered... (and in what condition?) Dun Dun Dun dododo Dun!

The thing is, it is hard to really explore this because it's innately such a dark, heavy concept. I don't enjoy the 'Authoritarian Hellscape" lameass interpretation by normies. I like my silly workcom on the rails with warm fuzzies and funny antics, thank you very much!

Unpopular opinion

Some of his faces (even before the worsening first inflicted by Magic Railroad) are pretty weird looking! Maybe cause his forehead is so huge and smooth, but maybe just the odd mouth shapes. I like the variety, but they aren’t what I’d call cute... I find myself thinking ‘Moon Face’ looking at him [even with the lack of craters lmao] and oops I think I missed the weirdest grin of all, but here’s a small sample anyway

Favourite relationship

Not a favourite, per say, but some of the more friction-ish interactions he has with Thomas or Percy are pretty funny. With Thomas’ immortal flippant disregard to viaduct safety, Percy retorting that engines with Proper Funnels do, in fact, need scarves, something Henry wouldn’t know about, and that Henry somehow manages to dismiss Bill and Ben, a feat Gordon needs to take notes from. Even the Something in the Air exchange with Thomas, which isn’t really stellar writing just has a funny lame argument vibe.

For some nice Wholesome interaction, Bear is hands down the winner! Easy pick maybe, and it makes me wonder if Bear’s complete absence in the TVS is part of the downward spiral because he’d offer a lot more Plotlines.... hmmm...!

Favourite headcanon

Other than the universal fandom acceptance that He Digs Nature, Baby is the notion I’ve seen a few times that his “fear” of the rain, or what it would do to his paint, isn’t actually why he stopped in the tunnel, and it had more to do with his mechanical failure and/or him having something of a nervous breakdown. He does come across as something of an ass if you take the episode at face value, but there having a secret deeper meaning is way more interesting 👀

Showing Fred Adventure Time

Warning: Fluffy Headcannon ahead 

a/n: so I have been rewatching this bc finals are gross but its also really easy watch and gives me that nostalgia so anywho I just thought about how cute this would be if I was watching it with Fred, also warnin probs a few typos 

he would get really divested in the story really fast

and get super confused when the next episode didn't pick up on the plot of the last one

so you just explain to him that sometimes they intertwine but its usually pretty loosely so you can pick up anywhere

it takes him a second to get why you would want to keep watching but he keeps it up

and he does it for the same reason as you, he falls in love with the characters

he really loves finn

will non stop do impressions

his favorite characters are marceline and finn

says he is finn and you are marceline

"fred im not evil"

"i didnt say you were evil, i said you were cool"

"ok whatever"

gets scared when princess bubblegum and marceline get together

like afraid your going to leave him

"are you going to leave me for a pink person?"

"what? no no, wait did you say pink person?"

"a person who wears pink, i can wear pink if you want."

"fred you're an idiot."

"what does that mean? no dont walk away what does that mean?"

likes to call george mrs treetrunks

on bad days you guys like to cuddle up and watch your favorite episodes

mrs weasley doesnt understand why you watch kids shows as you are both grown adults

she uses it as an excuse to push you to have kids

saying you will actually have an excuse to watch kids shows then

fred usually rolls his eyes, and begins to roll around on the floor

"i am just a wee lad, please mother turn on my shows and make me a sandwich with no crusts."

"y/n how do you put up with him?"

"i like the show too molly."

"you two, unbelievable."

for christmas you buy him finns hat and he loses his shit

his family is all like 🧍 'its a hat'

but fred puts it on and REFUSES to take it off for the rest of the holiday

you have to pry it off of him and force him to shower after a day or two

since then he loves to wear it, its his go to hat for winter, walking around diagon alley like a tall marshmallow man

he makes a replica sword and hangs it on your wall

for halloween you dress up as marceline because he likes her so much, and again he loses his shit

he was going to be finn but surprises you when he come out of your bedroom, decked in pink dress and a long pink wig

"you can't be serious."

"as. the. plauge."

george will not stop making fun of him

you and fred vow to get him just as hooked as you

and you are quite successful in that

and the next halloween you go as jake, fred goes as finn, and george goes as mrs treetrunks

eventually you infect the entire family except for mr and mrs weasley

you even get percy on it

and slowly move to other cartoon, regular show, steven universe, rick and morty, they eat it up

mr and mrs weasley love to make fun of you all

and they dont understand how their kids are all grown and still act like they did ten years ago

it makes them both happy and incredibly annoyed

but eventually they accept it, taking it a bigger chance to spend time with you

[kkulvoid]
