This Hellhound AU is getting out of hand, now I’m bringing in other characters like Class 1A/B kids and other members of the LoV. Everyone is aged up/down to the 20-22 age-range (age for demons/angels debatable because TECHNICALLY they’re immortal but mentally they’re in the 20-22 range). The setting is a Warlock university (also warlocks can make pacts with either angels, or demons, and if they’re really powerful/well learned they can summoner more than one of each). The worst part is coming up with unique pacts for each kind of angel/demon (there’s 8 of each).

BUT SOME OF THE PAIRS I’VE THOUGHT OF SO FAR ARE JUST. HILARIOUS. LIKE WHY WOULD I DO THIS TO THESE CHARACTERS--

Like I really decided that All Might would have Stain as an ANGEL, and that Deku would get Tomura (also as an angel maybe, making Tomu an angel would be INTERESTING TO ME).

And Ochacco gets stuck with Himiko and wants to know why I’m doing this to her. Also I’m making Kiri the warlock and Bakugo the demon and you can’t stop me. The best part is gonna be all the classmate dynamics (I have to make sure some of these chars are Tempters oh no).

I found out your were on Tumblr because Neil Gaiman reblogged something of yours. I enjoy the fact that you both get the "are you really ____" asks. People's incredulity at you both being on this site makes me smile.

I can't speak for Neil, but speaking for myself, a weird elder who lives in the deepest part of the oldest woods, I love it when someone wanders by and notices this little cottage that's pretty much been here since before the woods were planted.

I present to you a very much needed compilation of Henry going:

"Mhh"

Here's a breakdown of every "mh" (cause I have no self control over how many times I've watched this movie), and the different feelings they give off :D

Alex iconic "Vicky... classic." To which Henry fakes a smile and does "mh", trying to sound convincing on their genuine friendship, while probably also questioning himself why must've been him the one he fell for.

The conversation about owning a key. The "mh" is bittersweet and reflects his need to cope with humor on what it's required from him as prince and all the things he can't do because of it.

"Have you ever got your heart broken?" "The day my dad died." It's a sad freaking "mh". It holds melancholy, longing and grief but again, it helps him cope with the situation.

Honest, spontaneous, interested "mh" for whatever Alex was about to say and thinking because Henry is always ready to hear all the intrigued thoughts that come out of Alex's mouth.

Lastly, an alerted, concerned "mh" for whoever made his boyfriend so uneasy and he's ready to comfort him and give him all the reassurance he needs.

Feel free to give your own interpretations and thoughts

I LOVE aged up Ladynoir dynamic because they are more mature and understand each other to a level that just AHHH!

One of my oldest and most loved Ladynoir head-canons basically goes like this:

Where as they grow older, they grow closer but especially during the time where the og friend group kinda separates because of college and Marinette being Marinette is like "you know what? not having close friends with me helps me focus on college AND ladybug" but she still NEEDS SOMEONE (whether she knows it at the moment or not) .

It gets tougher, the akumas evolve into causing more mental and emotional damage than physical, hawkmoth grows to understand that with their age and jobs it's easier to target their mind. During this time they've grown more independent than they should have. So one night they talk, they explain their situation, they vent to each other and decide that the comfort they feel with one another can't be compared to anything else. That maybe the other is more than just a work friend that they joke with, more than just someone they only see during the most stressful times of the day, maybe it's easier to find a best friend in someone who you've known for most your life, who you've been through thick and thin with, who understands you in ways most might never. So Chat Noir and Ladybug grow closer and closer.

They rant about college and work (Adrien works in his father's company now and did a business course so he doesn't have to model and Marinette has an Etsy shop on the side). They get close and have random night talks where they talk about things no one but them and the night sky will ever hear. Everything they go through as heroes, the ups and downs, and they also talk about fun stuff, learn more about each other, finding out that chat is a part of multiple fandoms, that Ladybug has a horrible bed head and hates that chat doesn't, that they more are more of a romantic at heart than they want to admit. But they also talk about just the struggles and anxiety that comes with their jobs, just how messed up what they went through as kids is now that they see it from an adults point of view, but they also just laugh it off, joke about the trauma some fights inflicted. Nightmares that keep them up, hopes they are too scared to say out loud, sometimes even the fear of losing purpose if hawkmoth is defeated.

There's so much more too. They have the kind of friendship where they make jokes and promises into the night about how if they are always going to be single because of their jobs they'll just get married in their superhero costumes. How ladybug is going to love making chat's kids little clothes and how chat is going to make sure that ladybug gets time with her future partner whenever there's an akuma by handling it for her. All the while not knowing that their feelings for each other keep on growing and growing. It's so huge that it feels like their hearts will combust but it's also constant to the point that they get used to it.

It hits them like a truck yet it's so slow, maybe just talking one night and it hits them that they can't imagine life without the other, that they want the other in a way that's more than what they ever thought, no they've thought of it before, they've jokes about it but never acknowledged the truth this jokes had in them, never acknowledged that over time they became to lean on each other more than just in battles, they became each others partners in more than just fights against akumas, more than in a platonic way. They've always loved each other but their love had grown into something much stronger

P.s. thx @rosekasa for reigniting my Ladynoir head canons and now I'm on a journey to go through all my head canons 🤍

okay my mind went down this hangster rabbit hole, but bear with me.

so we all know hangman's helmet is designed so it looks like a game of hangman (or hungman, if you ask glen powell lol). and rooster's helmet has a horizontal line going through the word "ROOSTER", as if someone's crossed the letters out. and what do you usually do when you're playing hangman and you guess a letter incorrectly? you cross it out. and the words R-O-O-S-T-E-R and H-A-N-G-M-A-N don't share any of the same letters, so of course all of rooster's letters would be crossed off if the word he's trying to guess is hangman.

so basically no one can tell me hangman didn't help roo design his helmet (because we all know rooster wouldn't know his way around designing a paper bag), and as a joke he crosses all the letters out, cause "you can't spell hangman with any of these letters, so you lose." it's meant to be a joke but rooster loves it because it ties their designs together in a cute and subtle way -- "but i can't lose when i'm with you, baby" -- like they're always playing their own cute game of hangman. and roo's always game for anything (adventures, missions, life, marriage), as long as he's doing it with jake.

'i want to understand the language you dream in'

okay so. imagine natalie's parents used to use exclusively italian w her for the first 5 or so years of her life, so she didn't start properly learning english until kinder/first grade and therefore didn't have the best english for a while (like she knew some but nothing concrete) so she goes through life having to constantly translate everything she thinks before she says it, else slipping into angry italian when annoyed/flustered, but always one step behind, not because she isn't as smart but because 1 step of theirs is 2 steps for her, but she never says anything and just keeps a journal in italian and if the sharpie label scribbled onto her team hoodie says 'natalia' then is that really anyone's business? - but. but one day lottie sits down with an italian dictionary and goes 'teach me?' ......nat breaks down sobbing.

dean's sexuality is an overwhelming recurring theme throughout the show: his fetishes are prominent, he flaunts his sexuality and sexual behavior freely, he's a relentless flirt, and he has the most sexual encounters in the show. what i want to briefly consider here is how his sexuality and, more importantly, his fetishes may symbolize a freudian eroticization of a fantasized domestic life, particularly in his fetishization of femininity.

so hear me out: dean subconsciously eroticizes his mundane desires because he can't externalize them in a safe or realistic way. the desires are, namely, a longing for a domestic, "apple pie" life, which is a desire that has been explored in the show multiple times. dean routinely covets domesticity, through his desire to raise a child (ben and lisa subplot), the djinn fantasy (2.20), his "nesting" in the bunker (8.14), and his displacement of that desire onto sam (who is the primary subject of his erotic fixation in general and a subconscious extension of himself—if sam acquires a happy domestic life, dean can live vicariously through it).

he also routinely denies himself this domesticity because he's given up on getting out of the hunter life. he was raised in a survival environment and never was given a real opportunity to escape (even sam had to fight tooth and nail to get out, and we all know where that got him). the one time he had a chance to reject john and embrace normality he returned smiling because of sam (9.07). he's the one that vehemently secludes himself (and sam, like in 1.06) from society because connections are a liability. he leaves potential long-term relationships preemptively, always choosing hunting (and sam) over them before anything "real" can happen (1.13, 6.01, 6.21, also consider 8.19, perhaps more abstractly). he's so broken inside that he lacks any real desire at all (5.14). et cetera, et cetera. he denies himself his domestic desires to the point that he lacks desire at all—he's a broken shell of a man.

so the violent repression of the id causes the secret desire to leak out through erotic fantasy, a playground of fiction that is used by, well, most if not all people to explore desire in a safe and controlled medium (see: how many women have rape fantasies, for example—the sexual fantasy is a constructed world for safe exploration of certain desires, often abstracted through erotic symbols).

dean is so repressed as an individual, likely by external pressure to conform and control himself via john, that dean could subconsciously transform his secret desire for domesticity, into an erotic fantasy. he displaces those unacceptable desires from the unattainable mundane onto the safer erotic and they eventually distort into fetishes. the fetishes themselves are then abstractions of the things he covets but can't obtain.

and i want to focus specifically on his desire for domesticity and make an argument for feminization as a fetish (thank you rhonda hurley for your contributions to society) and how that relates back to that base desire.

there are several episodes in the show which suggest that dean fetishizes femininity itself, or rather feminization as it pertains to him (4.07, 5.04, also consider 10.05 in a more abstract sense). in 4.07, dean openly fantasizes about living in a "hot cheerleader's" body (youthfully feminine). in 5.04, dean recounts the time rhonda hurley forced him into her pink, satiny panties, saying that he liked it. 10.05 is a meta episode which additionally posits a plotline where dean becomes a woman through supernatural means, suggesting that fans are invited to draw a connection between dean and feminization. (these are the episodes i can pull off the top of my head; it's probably not comprehensive but i can't remember others atm)

so let's consider this feminization kink: we have dean fantasizing about femininity, womanhood, and especially girlhood, which he notoriously eroticizes (again in 4.07 and also in 4.13 and 10.13, to name specific references, but there are so many examples of this) in relation to himself, specifically. you can layer this in the way his deeper desires are of domesticity, and the home is traditionally (importantly) the domain of the woman. if dean would come to associate domesticity with femininity, then he would subconsciously connect his desire for domesticity with a desire for femininity. therefore, this feminization kink can represent an eroticization of his own (perceived) femininity. dean craves domesticity, but the domestic can only be achieved through womanhood, and therefore his desire for the domestic manifests through femininity, and thus feminization.

this "perceived femininity" of the domestic is important because of how dean conceptualizes the world largely through his consumption of media (see also: his "wild west fetish" via 6.18), which enforces gender roles and the relegating of the woman to the domestic sphere. this additionally aligns with dean's lived experiences: he had a domestic life while mary was alive, and when mary died the domesticity died with her. his only personal experiences with a settled home life are inexorably tied to the presence of femininity (his other excursion is when he lives with lisa, strengthening this association), and the absence of it and subsequent domination of john (the masculine) also took with it that domestic life.

and then you could even go so far as to make the argument that his eroticization of girlhood and his fetish for barely legal girls is a symbol of the domestic life he didn't get to live himself. it can represent a longing for youth in an environment that was inaccessible to him, a stability and domesticity walled off by womanhood. his youth was masculine, and his desire is for the feminine. it would stand to reason that when he yearns for an idealized youth, it would be through the lens of the symbolically feminine. and so this desire manifests through a fetishization of youth (girlhood) and his subsequent creep behavior. it all comes back to the life dean didn't get to live, eroticized and represented through a sexual fantasy born of rigidly enforced gender roles and the loss of femininity in his home life.
