Midnight Rascals (Sanji x child!reader)

A/N- Another one inspired by @me-writes-prompts, specifically from this post here, same as last time, I loosely based it on it as most of the prompt was change but it was still totally inspired by it. Who better to take this on than our Casanova chef?

Prompt: OTP comes home to their children playing with flour all over the floor and they can't help but coo at them, even though they'll have to clean the whole house twice.

Dividers by @/saradika

Sanji had woken up, his keen senses alerted by the familiar sound of someone having sneaked into the kitchen; knowing the avaricious appetite of his captain and how dangerous it would be to let the man be the cook stormed into the kitchen,

“Luffy, I swear,” he growls, only to stop at the shear mess that now lay in his kitchen, the whole place covered in white, his head snapping to one of the counters where he heard movement from

“Luffy, you better pray to every deity out there because when im done with the crew will be having a full-course meal on your body!”

“What the hell did you do to my kitchen?!” Sanji’s fury grew as he noticed every piece of equipment was covered with the same dusty white substance. Storming towards the counter only to stop short as in front of him lay not his captain but his young sibling thrown on the floor, writing and drawing messily on what he now identified as flour

Sanji stared blankly for a second, trying to register what his eyes were seeing

“W-what are you doing?!” He finally found the capacity to talk, staring at his sibling with disbelief as they lay there with their tongue sticking out in a state of concentrated effort, writing indecipherable words.

Their sibling shrieked, taking one look at their brother and the shocked look plastered on their face and shooting up and trying to make a run for it

Sanji immediately ran forward to grab the child who was attempting to escape, trying to hold back his laughter, his hands surrounding the small frame

“Ah ah ah, where do you think you’re going? I think you have lots to explain,” he said, holding the small child up with a curly browed arched as he waited for an explanation

“Why is there flour all over my kitchen?”

“It just fell…”

“Oh? It just fell, did it?”His eyes quickly once again surveyed the scale of the disaster caused by a bag of flour ‘falling,’ and with his youngest sibling covered in flour, it was apparent who was the cause of this catastrophe

“Yeah!”

“Oh, you mean those random piles of flour all around the floor, and the fact that every single piece of equipment in the kitchen is covered in flour, and even you’re covered head to toe in flour, and that you were literally writing with flour on the kitchen floor…It just fell, is that right?”

“Yeah?” They replied, giggling nervously, a little bit more hesitant than their previous answer

“Oh, you think being cute and giggling will get you out of trouble?”

Sanji smirked at his little sibling

“I promise you that’s not going to work this time.”

“ I love you, brother Sanji!”

“Convenient you wanting to share that when you’re caught red-handed. Do you think saying that is going to get you out of trouble?”

“Yep”

“Have a little bit of shame to at least deny it,” he mutters as he rolls his eyes, putting the child on the ground

“Good try, go get a rag; you have lots to clean up.”

“Awww!”

“Don’t you ‘Aww’ me, Start brooming and dusting the place,” he said, amused at his sibling's antics.

“But I was practicing writing!”

“You were practicing writing on the kitchen floor? With flour? Are you a baker now? Get cleaning”

They pout, grabbing a small child-size broom and starting to sweep the mess they had created

“Put that lip back, you rascal. I raised you, and I know your tricks; they won’t work on me like they do the rest of the crew,” he said, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it, inhaling and exhaling a thin wisp of smoke

What we thinking? I was working on another part for crocodile pigeon!reader among some other ideas but I had to get hall something wholesome and we haven’t heard of our resident cook in a while

This was a fun little project I found on @suugrbunz posts and I thought it would be fun to practice with this prompt. Hope you like it!

Prompt idea to practice your writing otp (ocs or fandom) — it'd be so cool since a lot of us write BoB fandom related content. So it can be interrupted as a modern au or !! Write your couples when they have grown old together

~💚~💚~💚~💚~💚~💚~

Upon returning from Europe after the war came to an end, you and Joe Liebgott had enough points for Honorable Discharge then came back to America after having served together in Easy Company ready to begin your lives as an exclusive couple. You both agreed that California would be the proper place to settle together. With the finances you each earned overseas, you bought a modest home with all the trimmings and furniture to fill it with. 

June 1946 

A representative from a popular local radio station visited your home to invite you and Joe for a live broadcast interview about your experiences together as a couple while deployed. The man explained it would be a real human-interest story and the American public would love to hear it. After a little bit of coaxing, you convince Joe to do it with you. 

You and Joe seated next to eachother across from the record jockey who would be interviewing you. The interview simply went as follows: 

Record Jockey (RJ): So, are you two a couple? 

Y/N: We are a couple. *Proudly smiling*  

Joe: *Nods with a grin* 

RJ: Would you mind telling us the story of how you two met? 

*You’re hesitant at first because women serving in the military was quite frowned upon, but nonetheless would still be overjoyed to tell the story. Joe would only be looking to you to do all the talking. He loves hearing your voice, and just stares at you admirably* 

Y/N: We both enlisted in the Army at the same time and met at Camp Toccoa, GA. I trained with the Paratroopers and the medic training unit while we were there and was assigned to Easy Company where Joe also was. 

RJ: When was that? 

*Joe is better with numbers than you, so you hum in thought then look at Joe to help you out* 

Y/N: June....? July... 

Joe: July 1942 

RJ: What was your first impression of each other? 

*You smile coyly at Joe, narrowing your eyes at him. Joe would be slouching in his seat, not very thrilled to be there in the first place, but perks up a little at the question meeting your gaze affectionately* 

Y/N: He was smug, and overconfident. A real wise guy with a mouth that needed a good bar of soap. My initial impression of Joe was that he was nothing but trouble. And you know what? I was right about that, (Y/N giggles) but after spending all those years with him overseas, I discovered how charming he could be. And how honorable of a soldier he was in the field. 

*Joe grins adoringly at you. Grabs your hand and squeezes* 

Joe: At first, I thought she was a pain in the.... 

RJ: Mr. Liebgott! Please, we’re live! 

Joe: -right...uh, pain in the rear. Whenever me and the guys did somethin’ we weren’t supposta’, she’d always be naggin’ us. Ya know, like a parent? Thought she was going to fall behind a lot and complain about getting dirty or having to fire the M-1. She didn’t complain about the work, the filth, the sweat, the tears or the heat. None of it. She pushed through like any of the guys did. I read her all wrong in the beginning. 

*Your eyes meet and exchange smiles* 

RJ: How many years have you been an item?  

Y/N: Well, the rest of the guys considered us an ‘item’ long before we dropped into Normandy. But I’d say exclusively since late June 1944. After all the near-death experiences, we definitely had a stronger bond. 

*Joe just nods in agreement* 

RJ: Joe, we haven’t heard too much from you. What's your favorite thing about Y/N? 

*Y/N looks over at Joe expectantly, smirking because she knows he doesn’t really like to talk about feelings* 

Joe: *Long exhale, kind of stares out into space thinking* Well...she’s a knockout. Just look at her. *Gestures to Y/N sitting next to him blushing* I love that she can look the way she does and still be as strong as any of the guys in Easy.  

*He looks you over and winks at you making the butterflies in your stomach dance* 

RJ: So, was there a first date? 

*You and Joe both look at eachother inquisitively, each squinting at one another as if trying to search the other’s thoughts for an answer. You shrug* 

Joe: What about that night at Toccoa when we snuck out after lights out, and walked Curahee? Think that counts? 

Y/N: Ah, yes! It was so hot and humid, and neither of us could sleep on those kinds of nights- 

Joe: Mid-August 1943 

Y/N: -so we both snuck out of billeting to get some air after TAPS and bumped into eachother behind the mess hall. So, it was an impromptu first date. We ended up walking the Curahee trail up the mountain where we always did our awful company runs. But you could see the stars perfectly up there.  

*Joe nods* 

RJ: So, with the war having brought you together and the experiences having made you two inseparable, any plans to make Y/N ‘Mrs. Liebgott?’  

*You hiccup clutching your pearls. Joe chokes on saliva and chuckles nervously* 

Joe: *Scratching the back of his head* I think that goes without sayin’-- 

RJ: How about little Liebgotts? 

*Sweat forming on Joe’s forehead, you sense his panic* 

Y/N: Joe and I have the same ambitions planning for our future. That will include marriage and starting a family. Right now, we’re relishing eachother living peaceful lives after the chaos of the war. We’re in no hurry. 

*You look over at Joe, and he directs a grateful smile to you for rescuing him* 

RJ: You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen! From the treacherous depths of war love still prevails! Thank you for sharing your story with the public! It’s lovely to see this point of view about the war than from what we’ve only heard or seen in the news. What a story! 

The End

[magpie-come-east]

marie for the meme >:) i cherish that goat baby

favorite thing about them

I love using Marie as a mirror to Morgott's own nature. You know, typical parent-child story tropes. She's impulsive? Quick to anger? Headstrong? Obsessed with honor? Do you find it frustrating, Old Man? She's you!! I've really got no official references for her, but I love her design in my head. Everyone calls Morgott a goat so I made her have apparent goat features. She has the long goat ears, curling ram's horns, and a beard/whiskers like Morgott's. Just playing with Crucible traits with Omen/hornsent OCs are fun.

least favorite thing about them

Nothing, really! I love her a lot and I'm excited to write her more!

favorite line

“You needn’t pretend to worry for me, anymore. I’ve put God himself on his arse.”

I've only really written a teenaged Marie in Regal Omen Bairns. But I liked this line a lot. It's full of teenage audacity and anger and hurt. But I think it encapsulates her well: brash and coarse.

“Magpie,” Marie groaned sleepily. “You’re bleeding.”

Moiragh sat upon the bed’s edge, breathing hard through her nose. Dark ichor dripped onto Marie’s sheets.

“Come with me, please,” she whispered.

Marie, without hesitation, clasped her hand in that bloodied palm, fingers entwined. “Of course.”

I also like this exchange. Short and simple but it makes my heart light thinking about their bond.

brOTP

Marie and Moiragh!

Moiragh (Magpie) is Mohg's daughter, and she was born (hatched) months after Marie was born. They were raised as sisters and see themselves as twins.

OTP

None. I only really imagine Marie's life up til about 19-20 Demigod years of age. I don't see her having an interest in pursuing a relationship that would distract her from Moiragh haha.

nOTP

Again, none. She's my OC with 5 fans I am not concerned about her being shipped in a way I hate.

random headcanon

She's been compared so much to her grandfather she feels a typical young-adult compulsion to emulate him. The problem being that she was raised in peace time and doesn't comprehend the true horrors of war and the ignoble realities of conquest. When she sees her first real conflict, she is woefully unprepared emotionally and physically to cope with it. Pure size and strength aren't enough to win every battle.

unpopular opinion

She's my baby girl and no one has ever said a untoward thing about her. : )

favorite picture of them

Hmmm who drew this adorable portrait ; ) (Art by @frostfall24)

[nyoomfruits]

lovin the landoscar content recently are there any other blogs or fics u recommend for landoscar content? thank u!!

there's currently 44 fics in the landoscar ao3 tag and i would recommend all of them actually BUT these are my personal favorites <3

Negative splits by leafmealone | T | 10k

So officially, Oscar Piastri, pretty good steepler and pretty bad pacer, was now a professional runner. They wanted him to steeple, mostly, though he’d be doing cross country in the fall, and Lando had pinky promised him, mid-distance guy to mid-distance guy, that if he wanted to get into the 3k flat indoor then he would get him in. Oscar didn’t really want to ask how he planned on doing that. Felt safer not to ask.

listen. LISTEN. this is so. oh my god this is so good i'm OBSESSED with this one. my landoscar otp tag is literally a quote from this fic i'm so. it has a very slow build and then the ending hits and you're like oh. OH. beautiful beautiful beautiful.

i'll kiss you first by venerat | E | 3k

“Uh,” Oscar says, when they’re in the car on their way to the airport. “I think you’re—um. Going into heat, mate.”

god this one is so. their DYNAMIC in this. lando being like a confident little shit being so ENDEARED by oscar makes me feel all goey soft every time. delightful premise, works SO WELL for them and everything about this is just so. AAAHHH

break my rules by venerat | E | 4k

Lando makes a considering noise. “A flirt?” He glances at the cameras, and Oscar can’t tell if it’s one of those we’ll need to edit that out later glances, or what. He looks back at Oscar. “You think I’m a flirt?” “You’re just, like…” Oscar flounders, flushing. “You’re very friendly.”

i promise this entire list isn't going to be just venerat fics but GOD they write the landoscar dynamic SO WELL it makes me feel a little feral every single time. the whole shag marry kill scene is so. GOD it's my favorite. a+++ i love this fic so much

askin' six days into june by peargasly (jamb) | G | 354

Lando almost flinches in surprise when there’s a hesitant touch to his waist.

i read this this morning and it fundamentally changed me as a person this might be one of the BEST lando/oscar characterizations i've ever read the DYNAMIC in this is top tier

sense and velocity by vertueusement | T | 11k | wip

“Well, alright, I don’t know if you lived under a rock or something, but Lando Norris goes here.” Uh, literally who? Oscar wanted to prod further but he could at least read the room and tell the one he spoke to didn’t want anything to do with him.

this is a wip so it is not finished yet but GOD i'm so fascinated by this whole thing. the premise is AMAZING and the author makes FANTASTIC use of the switching pov to show how we perceive situations differently all the time i'm so !!!!!!! DELIGHTED to see where this story will take us

GUYS!!!!!!! It’s the love of my life aka @halfblood-princes-crown’s birthday today! As my birthday gift to him, and because I know Snucius is his OTP, this is a “Snucius + Narcissa (with a side of Bellatrix and Regulus) being a chaotic duo/trio” post <3

Bellatrix: Hm? Oh yes, I’m fine. It wasn’t my relationship.
*Snape and Lucius fighting from across the room*

Snape: I MIGHT DIE AT LIKE 38

******

Lucius: You love me, right, Severus?
Snape: Normally, I’d answer yes without hesitation, but I feel like this is going somewhere and I don’t like it.

******

Snape: Lucius and I have the kind of easy chemistry where we finish each other’s-
Lucius: -sentences. 
Snape: Do not interrupt me.

******

Lucius: So that’s my plan.
Snape: Are you alright with constructive criticism? I don’t want to sound mean.
Lucius: No, go ahead, I want to hear it.
Snape: It fucking sucks.
Lucius: First of all, that’s not constructive criticism.

******

Lucius: Severus, I only ever see you awake, do you ever take a nap or stop running? 
Snape: Oh, I’m always running 
Snape: The question is… (*dramatic Movie!Snape pause*) from what.

******

Snape: I’m a reverse necromancer.
Lucius: Isn’t that just killing people?
Snape: Ah yes, technicality.

******

Lucius: Severus, love, it’s your turn to wash dishes. 
Snape: I’LL WASH THE WALLS RED WITH YOUR BLOOD. 
Lucius: Fine, but before that, wash the dishes, also use soap this time?

******

Lucius: You know, Narcissa and I are starting to regret showing you how that blender works. 
Snape, drinking toast: Why do you say that?

******

Lucius: Okay, help me please!
Snape: I have two words for you

Lucius: I bet they won’t be helpful.
Snape: Your problem.
Lucius: I was right

Snape: What does it say instead?

Narcissa: Lucius’s bi.

Snape:

Snape: Still works.

******

Lucius: *pretends to stretch*

Lucius: *puts arm around Snape’s shoulder*

Snape:

Snape: *pretends to stretch*

Snape: *smacks Lucius in the face*

******

Snape: Are you seeing someone?

Lucius, blushing: No, why?

Snape: I don’t know, I simply thought that perhaps you would benefit from seeing a therapist or something.

******

Snape: So, Lucius sent me an owl saying “your adorable” and I sent him one back saying “no, YOU’RE adorable.”

Narcissa: And?

Snape: And now we’re dating.

Narcissa:

Snape: We’ve been on six dates thus far and I have yet to tell him I was merely correcting a spelling mistake but I kind of like him so...

******

Narcissa to Lucius and Snape: This is such a bad idea.

Snape: Then why are you coming along?

Narcissa: One of us needs to be able to talk the aurors out of arresting us when this inevitably goes wrong.

[crescentpaws]

14 + 26 for the otp asks?

14. How do their personalities compliment each other? How do they clash?

they are the same but they are the opposite. they are the perfect couple but they are so bad for each other. you don’t understand!!!!!

anyway i think their main ‘clashing’ personality traits would be the ones they share…. like how they are both very stubborn, which can cause problems sometimes. they can both get angry easily. both of them tend to be pessimists (non-neverseen au fintan would be much more cheerful though i think). they can both be impatient at times. they both have egos. they’ve both had issues with vulnerability but at least that’s something they can work through together.

but fintan tends to be much more impulsive, whereas bronte likes to think things through more. fintan can be reckless and bronte can over-prepare for things. they sort of balance each other out in this way. bronte has spent years trying to tame his emotions and manage his ability while fintan is not trying to suppress his power at all and is instead over-indulging in the freedom he now has. they help each other manage their powers this way; bronte helping fintan calm down a bit more and control himself, fintan helping bronte learn how to express his emotions in ways that don’t require them to be bottled up. they can keep each other in check because of their similar yet totally different experiences.

and then there’s the fact that they know each other better than anyone else. if you’re that close to someone for thousands of years i can only assume it might start to feel a bit overwhelming, especially if you have a falling out later (like in canon). yes, they’d know the best ways to make each other happy, but they’d also know the best ways to make each other sad/angry/upset/etc. knowing someone better than anyone else means knowing how to hurt them better than anyone else. sometimes it’s too easy. ‘i know your hopes and dreams but i also know your fears and insecurities.’ ‘i know your deepest secrets but i also know how to use them against you.’ something something thin line between love and hate or whatever.

26. What are their vices?

well one of them is a murderer so we know this list isn’t going to be great. but.

fintan: stubbornness, dishonesty, impulsivity, feelings of superiority, narcissism, arrogance, selfishness, anger, aggression, jealousy, greed, excessive pride (though lots of self-hatred at the same time. he has a complicated relationship with himself), irritability, erratic behavior, obsessiveness (relating to his goals at least), manipulative behavior, mercilessness and ruthlessness

bronte: stubbornness, feelings of superiority (though obviously not to fintan’s extent), can be dismissive & rash, honesty to a fault (will not hesitate to tell you that you look like shit today), irritability, pride (he hardly ever apologizes), apathy

(not all of these are present at all times of course. depends on the circumstances)

Some of my Top Ships for Valentine’s Day!

This was supposed to be like 5 ships but shit got a little bit out of hand…

In no particular order:

Helia x Flora (Winx Club): they were my first OTP, it’s a classic, we know it, we love it, they invented the word adorkable. They are just… chef’s kiss

Callum x Rayla (the Dragon Prince): they are… my everything. From their very first interaction I was like… oh. They just balance each other out so well and it’s so much fun to watch them fall in love and grow together even if there have been a few… bumps in the road recently… they are my babies.

Runaan x Ethari (the Dragon Prince): WHERE IS MY SPIN OFF?! I NEED TO SEE HOW THESE TWO FELL IN LOVE! They just… the second Ethari was introduced these two had my heart and I just… I can’t even describe what it is about them that just gets me right there.

Lizzie x Daring (Ever After High): I said what I said. No regrets. Should’ve been endgame. You don’t get it, they get to be their real selfs when they’re with each other! The fucking potential! We only got 5 min in the webisodes and like a few dialogues in the books but they will forever live rent free in my brain.

Zuko x Katara (Avatar): …was this one predictable? I feel like this one was predictable, it just made so much sense with their respective characters, story lines and everything about them was just set up so perfectly but just never paid off. But yeah… these two were PERFECTION, up until they didn’t end up together somehow.

Percy x Annabeth (Percy Jackson): Come on, this is THE ship. I apologize in advance for the person I will become when the show comes out cause I’ll only be talking about them for a very long time.

Luka x Marinette (Miraculous Ladybug): You don’t understand how much I mean it when I say that I will go down with this ship. Luka is just… the cutest? And like… Marinette? Being supported? Being loved? Getting to have someone on her side that doesn’t feel like she owes them anything? Is this a potential OTP? Yes, yes it is.

Inej x Kaz (Six of Crows): I don’t think I have to say anything here. These two are just… wow. They would both kill for each other and… I love that it’s not an ‘I can fix them’ relationship, it’s a ‘I will change and be better for them’ relationship and I just…they are the pinnacle of romance.

Raven x Beast Boy (Teen Titans/Comics): Come on… do I have to say anything else? These two were made for each other! They understand each other in a way that almost no one else can, they both have dark sides that could take them over but they fight it, be it in different ways. And I just… they deserved so much more.

Mateo x Rufus (They Both Die at the End): If you haven’t read this book… it’s one of my faves but you shouldn’t read it unless you’re in a somewhat stable mental place ajajjajajja. But these two were just… ugh. I usually despise insta-love with every inch of my being but it worked so well for these two I just- AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH

Sophie x Gideon (Shadowhunters: Infernal Devices): These two I feel like are underrated in the fandom. Like, come on! In my personal opinion, they have the best love story in Shadowhunters. I’ve loved them since I was 9 and they are just so… they are just so good with each other? I love them. Every single moment of their relationship slaps.

Ron x Hermione (Harry Potter): They invented hesitant friends to friends to best friends to lovers. And they were done so wrong in the movies. Can anyone recommend me fics with them as the central focus? The Harry Potter part of AO3 is a fucking mess and I’ve found like two and I need more!

Luz x Amity / Hunter x Willow / Eda x Raine (The Owl House): How the fuck did a single show give me 3 new OTP’s? I’ve got no fucking idea but somehow they did it. I adore this show, I cannot wait for the finale. All the love stories are just… top tier just… wow. Lumity are the perfect enemies to lovers arc, Huntlow are just… so cute and perfect and of course we have Eda and Raine who are just iconic and IF I DON’T GET A KISS I AM GOING TO-

Wednesday x Tyler (Wednesday): COME AT ME BRO (please don’t), I love when people say they shouldn’t be together cause *SPOILERS* like… this is Wednesday Adams we’re talking about, if anything it makes it better! I love this ship. Their dynamic is just superior to me. Crazy x different kind of crazy? Perfection.

Charles Xavier x Erik (X-men): X-MEN WERE FUCKING COWARDS. That’s all I’ll say about that. I deserved so much better.

Rarity x Apple Jack (Equestria Girls): My fave sapphics, they were girlfriends. Farm girl x fashionista? Fucking genius. The aesthetics and dynamics are just perfect. The heavens open up and you can hear the choir when there’s a plot line revolving around their… ‘friendship’.

Nam-ra x Su-hyeok (All of us are dead): They are just… so fucking precious? He runs towards zombies to protect her and they are both crushing on each other from a distance, trying not to be obvious and it is so cute and so precious and just… I can’t wait for s2.

Stiles x Lydia (Teen Wolf): I’m not watching the movie. I refuse to. These two had 14 year old me in a choke hold.

Barry x Caitlin (The Flash): yes, I’m that person. Seasons 1-4 I still held on to hope. I love these two, just two nerds supporting each other and being THE team. This was truly so much potential.

Sarah x Leonard (Legends of Tomorrow): *sobs* they were just… so unexpected but they also made so much sense?

Hiccup x Astrid (How to Train Your Dragon): They were my obsession for a good while, Race to the Edge gave me way too much serotonin. I cried violently watching the last movie I just- they were so good. Their whole character development in Race to the Edge? Absolute fucking hold.

Winter x Jacin (The Lunar Chronicles): These two are just… childhood best friends to lovers, I’d kill and die for you, we know we love each other but we’ll never admit it and just be teaseful and then when they finally kiss it’s just so intense I was fucking fainting. I love them.

Dominick x Erika (Barbie, The Princess and the Pauper): They invented romance and they are the only insta-love love story that I will accept.

Robin x Regina (Once Upon a Time): I will die angry. Srly, they were just… perfect for each other? The definition of true love and they understood each other, Robin was so good for her and he believed so much in her and they loved each other in such a pure way and just… also they were just hot as fuck together I mean, they had me questioning my sexuality.

Starfire x Robin/Nightwing (Teen Titans/DC Comics/DC Movies): I don’t even know how to describe the amount of serotonin these two give me, they just make sense to me and I love them.

Kid Flash x Jinx (Teen Titans): They had 1 episode and they made history.

Artemis x Kid Flash (Young Justice): …I’m still waiting… fuck me… THEY WERE JUST SO FUCKING GOOD AAAAAAAHHHHHH- The way they annoyed each other but slowly grew to trust each other and then became friends and you can’t even pin point the exact moment they start falling in love because it just happens so naturally and so organically and it’s just- AAAAAHHHHHHHH

Impulse x Blue Beetle (Young Justice): Bart is in love with Jaimie and he is not subtle about it at all. Jaimie is a bit oblivious but you know that he is just as much in love if not even more

Jonathan x Nancy (Stranger Things): I swear yall’ if they really redo the triangle next season, I’m going to riot cause these two, their story is so well done in the first 3 seasons and it’s just like… what the fuck ya know?

Mike x Eleven (Stranger Things): I don’t care what anyone says, I still love them.

Lucas x Max (Stranger Things): …ow? I honestly don’t know what else to say.

Ben x Evie/Harry x Uma (Descendants): YOU KNOW I’M RIGHT, DID YOU WATCH CHILLIN LIKE A VILLAIN/WHAT’S MY NAME?! THE CHEMISTRY WAS LITERALLY DRIPPING OFF OF THEM. HE WAS SO HAPPY EVERYTIME HE SAW HER AND THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN GOLD TOGETHER.

Lucas x Maya (Girl Meets World): I am so tired… these two were just… so good together, the chemistry, the story line, Maya accepting the ‘bad��� side of Lucas in a way that Riley never did and him just being there for her no matter what ‘I could never hurt you’ I just… why?

Veronica x JD (Heathers the Musical): Listen… hear me out… I know that he was kinda crazy but… they were kind of an iconic duo okay? Freeze Your Brain? Dead Girl Walking? Our Love Is God? Seventeen? Meant to Be Yours? I Am Damaged? Sorry was I… not supposed to ship them after listening to those? I love them. I’m allowed to have at least one kinda-toxic-if-you-think-about-it-ship.

Juliette x Warner (Shatter Me): They created sexual tension. Every single scene slaps and their arc is just perfect and I love them and they are just… they are so intense but in the best way possible.

January OTP Prompts

The second to last one! Here we go! The home stretch! This was another one I almost forgot about / lacked all motivation to finish once I remembered it was a thing. I was too excited about the new You Know Where the City Is chapter.... BUT here it is!

30. Catching snowflakes on tongue

“Anyway, that’s why I think it’s important that we—” George paused, breaking off sharply, slowing his step, mumbling an apology to a businesswoman who bumped into him, not expecting his sudden change of gait to disrupt the flow of sidewalk traffic. He looked to his left and frowned when he realized that Matty was no longer keeping pace at his side. His frown deepened and he turned back to see Matty stopped a few yards away, his head tilted back and his tongue sticking out. 

“Um, Matthew,” George said slowly, cautiously, wondering if Matty had suffered the psychotic break he always joked about. “Em, what are you doing?” The joke was never funny, and George was worried it was about to become even less funny. 

“Catching snowflakes on my tongue,” Matty said as if that explained absolutely everything. People glaring as they had to change their trajectory to move around him. George frowned. It explained nothing. He hadn’t even realized it had started snowing until Matty mentioned it. But it was, fluffy flurries falling from the sky, landing on Matty’s tongue, glittering like diamonds as they landed in his dark gray streaked curls. 

“Em, why?” George asked, retracing his steps to stand in front of Matty again, he could see the cloud of his breath as he panted, letting the snowflakes fall and instantly melt as they landed on his pink tongue. The center of his tongue was stained blue from the blue raspberry lollipop he had been sucking on earlier, trying to feed his oral fixation as he tried to cut down on smoking with varying results. 

“Because it’s fun,” Matty said, returning his tongue to his mouth to look at George with bright eyes. George was suddenly overcome with such a strong wave of fondness, such a strong feeling of love that he couldn’t help but step into Matty’s space, pulling him into his arms and pressing their lips together, Matty’s lips and tongue were cold from the snow against his own warm ones. 

“What was that for?” Matty asked when George pulled away, sounding slightly dazed as he looked upon George with the same love that George felt, deep in his chest and tingling in his frozen toes. 

“I love you,” George said as an explanation. “I love you so fucking much and I’m grateful everyday that we get to go through this life together.” 

“Aw,” said Matty, his eyes glittering, a smirk curling the corners of his lips. He patted George’s cheek. “I love you too babe,” he paused, “anything in particular that brought this on? Anything you need to tell me...” Matty trailed off, suddenly looking concerned. 

George snorted, “you’re just really fucking cute,” George elaborated, “and I really fucking love you.” 

“Well,” said Matty, letting his hand drop from George’s face so they could intertwine their fingers. “It’s a good thing I love you then isn’t it?” 

He paused, hesitating, his wicked grin coming back, “even though you forgot to empty the dishwasher this morning.”

A brief intro!

Hello :) 

I enjoy roleplaying immensely and if you’re interested, please don’t hesitate to contact me! I am 36, very much fine with smut, only 18+ players involved. See below for the off limits in that regard. I range from one to 5 paragraphs, usually whatever the situation requires. I can be contacted via my inbox - if you’d like my discord I’ll send it to you privately.

RULES

PLEASE give me at least a couple sentences to work with. I will -always- give you at least a paragraph between actions and speech, so give me something to go off as well! I hate sounding pretentious or elitist but it makes me way more invested in the thread if I’ve got lots to respond to from it.

I will not play with random family members of Halsin's without first talking about it. I’m totally open to the idea, but just gimme a heads up and some info first? 

OC’s - Yes / No - For me OC’s are hit or miss because I prefer to have a knowledge of the character so I can actually reply by mobile when I’m work. I don’t hate OC’s though! I just might be MUCH slower and more selective with the OC’s I play with. That said though, I don’t like playing with Mary or Gary sue’s. If I end up not replying to something, don’t take it personally, it might be that I just don’t see how they would properly interact. 

I will play with multiple ships / characters. Lines are all separate! - once we’ve established a few threads each relationship will get it’s own name and tag. Feel free to toss suggestions at me for names! AU's: I absolutely love alternate universes! Lets absolutely play with the world and adjust things as we please!

I keep an eye on ‘bearlydruid’ as much as I can in tags! I have noticed though that not everything that gets tagged shows up in my tags. If you think I’ve missed a reply, shoot me a link for it.

If something is marked open you don’t have to ask - just hop on in! 

If you’d like me to reply to something of yours pop it in my ask box!

I browse / reply via the mobile app a lot which sometimes swallows up replies (both yours and mine!) if I miss something, take more than like a week to reply, please send me a message about it! 

Pairings I adore:

Halsin x Astarion (my OTP!) Halsin x Other Tadfools Halsin x Chemistry 

Things I am particularly fond of:  - Reunion Tropes (I will happily establish an au for this!), found family, omegaverse (I cherry pick from the concept, we can discuss what to use / not! <3), primal play, soulmates

Things that are off limits:

Non-Con, Feet, Outright torture (without discussion first!), Watersports, Scat, Underage Characters

Advancing situations without prior discussion: For example, I had someone reply to an open and through the course of 4/5 replies they laid out that their muse and Halsin were divorced, had a child together, and Halsin had been neglecting them long before their divorce. Don’t be that person, okay? Lets discuss important details like that before hand!

If it’s obvious you haven’t read my rules and push situations on me, I will disengage. You are welcome to discuss it with me before hand, but, I prefer not to waste either of our time.

my oddly specific marauders modern au headcanons

if james is white (and even if he’s desi but especially if he’s any degree of white) then he’s the kind of white person who knows all of the lyrics to the childish gambino song bonfire and gets a little too into it every time it comes on (not saying the slurs of course but he just likes the song like WAYY too much)

i firmly disagree with the headcanon that sirius listens to popular music from the current day i feel like his playlists are almost exclusively pre-1990 i also know he’s incredibly annoying about it too like bro was disappointed that remus and peter already knew who david bowie was because he wanted to *introduce* them to him - he likes sufjan though because everybody likes sufjan

james and remus are only children, peter is the youngest, sirius is the oldest but people who don’t know him think he’s the youngest (it drives him crazy but regulus thinks it’s funny), mary is also the oldest, lily is the youngest, dorcas is the oldest, and marlene is a middle child (i know a lot of ppl headcanon her as the youngest but hear me out it just make sense

don’t love the headcanons about the boys having crazy high body counts i feel like they’re far too dorky but i feel like marlene is absolutely ran through (respect tho) - adding onto that i feel like she’s one of those gay ppl who always knew she was gay like didn’t struggle w coming out at all

peter is a bit of a film bro and his letterboxd is IMMACULATE - if he has a flaw it’s that he quotes pulp fiction all the time and they’re all a little sick of it,,,he and mary watch movies together because everyone else finds their in-depth shot for shot analysis annoying

if lily is a lesbian, in her comphet era her taste in celebrity men was INCREDIBLY normal and that’s what got her clocked. like yes babe, i really believe that chris evans and george clooney are your number one celeb crushes! on the other hand, mary’s taste in celeb men would have her put on a watchlist (she spent about an hour arguing with sirius about jared leto)

regulus loves fiona apple that’s it that’s the tweet james is not a fan but he’ll pretend for regulus’ sake (his music taste is shockingly basic so none of the guys ever let him have the aux)

black bros are both terrible drivers,,,james taught reg and it almost killed their relationship and sirius is just accident-prone

casanova remus as a headcanon is kinda ooc (In My Opinion obviously if you like it go crazy) but i feel like remus is one of those people who’s genuinely oblivious about being attractive like,,,he’ll be completely unaware that people are flirting with him/are interested in him,,,obviously this sends sirius to Places

dorcas is BIG into arts and crafts like one thing about her she does not play about those little projects (and remus likes them too they do them together)

Rayman and Globox for the character breakdown?

Rayman

How I feel about this character

As the little dude that got me into this series in the first place, I quite like him. He’s got the usual protagonist traits but he’s just a silly guy. I cannot wait to do a character study on this man.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Other than like, DD? Prolly no one, I just love the canon thing of Rayman just ABOUT getting a girlfriend but she somehow gets retconned. Somehow.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Rayman 2 Globox and Rayman are the Brotp, I love how they bring the best out of each other!

My unpopular opinion about this character

I kinda love it when people lean into the “oh god I’m a forgotten mascot” angle, even in a non meta way. I just, even though I draw him cute I imagine he’s just a 30 something year old man.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I wish they kinda lean back to the seriousness of Rayman 2 juuust a little, with a bit of the comedy of Rayman 3. He’s a silly guy but it’s clear his friends are his support.

Also I wish he would call Matilda mom but that’s just because the fandom has destroyed me.

Globox

How I feel about this character

He’s a pretty fine sidekick, a father who loves his wife and kids just as much as he loves his best friend is just really sweet. Plus his cowardice being a flaw he’s able to overcome with help is nice.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

His wife, who I will cry over being named Uglette. Poor fuckin woman.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Ofc Rayman. Complete the duo.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I really don’t like how 3, Origins and Legends treat him? 3 made him too wisecracking and fucking weird (about to cheat on his wife for a sexy voice) and then they kinda turn him into the “friend who loves food” cliche. I’m not saying turn EVERY game into “Globox must learn to be braver” but keep some of the hesitation? Or at least bring back his wife and kids in some capacity.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I wish we can see him interacting with his kids more, he’s got a whole fucking army and you’re telling me not one of them would like to go on adventure with dad? Man.

I need to hear more about why Jackie/Eric is a NOTP for you! I’m always fascinated by why some ships are or aren’t compatible and why they do or don’t resonate with fans :) As I mentioned, I’m totally with you on the first seven of those eight UOs, so you’re never alone :)

Thanks for the ask! And I appreciate that 🧡

So, I think the first and most obvious reason I don't like Jackie/Eric is because obviously if Eric is with Jackie then he is not with Donna and that is just not gonna fly. Eric and Donna are my OTP, and I am not open to other pairings. That's... I mean, that could be the whole post. 😂

But I do have some further thoughts.

First of all, I actually think Eric and Jackie do have things in common (and I think it's a reason they could be friends). They're both into dolls/roller disco/they have similar hobbies (they would totally go antiquing together), I would describe both of them as kind of traditional, and I think they had similar desires for a long-term relationship. Not a similarity but a compatibility: Jackie likes to boss people around, and Eric likes to be bossed around.

But like - with that last example. I just prefer Jackie and Hyde's dynamic, where Jackie learns that she can't just be a bossy, steam-rolling bitch and she has to learn to ask her partner rather than telling him what to do. Jackie grew and changed there, it made her a dynamic, more likeable character, and that's a more compelling story than, well, the opposite. Likewise, I preferred how Eric goes to Donna at the end of "Do You Think It's Alright?" (the wedding registry episode) and was like 'Okay tell me what to do, I'm ready for some marching orders' and Donna was like 'No I don't know what to do either! We're gonna have to figure it out together.' Again, to me it's (1) a more compelling love story and (2) the characters actually grow and change and become better versions of themselves when together. I just don't think Jackie and Eric would provoke that kind of growth from one another.

Here are the rest of the reasons I'm team NOTP for Jackie/Eric:

Jackie and Eric like... barely interacted throughout the course of the show, *lol*. I even hesitate to call them friends. So any sort of romantic interaction between them just feels unearned, implausible, and random to me. I can't imagine them in a relationship when they could barely stand to be in the same room.

Jackie was not physically attracted to Eric. Canonically. Consistently, throughout the entire series. And we know now thanks to That '90s Show that he looks the exact same for at least the next 20 years 🤣

Eric was not attracted to Jackie's personality. Canonically. Consistently, throughout the entire series.

Jackie was also not crazy about Eric's personality. She puts him down for who he is, over and over again, throughout the series.

Eric was the love of Donna's life, and Jackie is Donna's best friend. She wouldn't date him, hard stop. Off limits. Likewise Jackie was the love of Hyde's life (even if he'd never admit it, Eric knows), and Eric is Hyde's best friend. He wouldn't date her, hard stop. Off limits.

I do not think they have any chemistry.

So as you can see, Jackie/Eric are not for me 🤣

I do not like them in a house. I do not like them with a mouse. I do not like them here or there. I do not like them anywhere!

That said, the internet is a big enough place for everybody. There are plenty of folks out there who do enjoy the pairing, and I will leave them to it. My 'ship is not for everybody either. I get it.

makoto :3c

OOOOOH MY BELOVED MAKOTOS!!!!! this got long so. under the cut it goes

favorite thing about them - urgh i love so many things about him… i think my favorite quality of makoto is his kindness and general ability to make friendships. in my opinion, he’s kinda the glue that makes the thh cast my overall favorite cast if that makes sense!! that’s why i think he is the best protag overall, in terms of how well he fulfills the role :)

least favorite thing about them - ohhh idk if i have a least favorite… so i will say that i think the way he wears a blazer over a hoodie looks funny. i feel like i overheat just looking at his outfit

favorite line - i’m a big fan of his “You’re so full of… shit!” line and he just hesitates to swear. IT’S VERY SILLAY OF HIM

brOTP - MAKOTO AND TOKO SHOULD BE THE BEST FRIENDS EVER i love their ftes… it makes me happy that he is so patient with her despite the fact that she is. admittedly frustrating to deal with

OTP - i really like both naegiri and naegami!! if i had to choose, i would probs go with naegiri, if only bc it was one of my first danganronpa ships so it feels a bit special for that reason. HOWEVER lurking on makoto tumblr has sold me on naegami even tho i used to be indifferent

nOTP - this might be a bit controversial but i actually don’t really like naekusaba. i admittedly don’t have the context from danganronpa IF that makes this ship super popular, but i’ve seen the rhetoric that people think makoto can “fix” mukuro a lot, and that kind of thing rubs me the wrong way. while the point of a relationship is to support each other and bring out the best in each other, i dislike the idea that makoto is responsible for healing mukuro’s issues when she has deep issues and he already makes himself responsible for others’ issues in a way that is unfair to him enough

random headcanon - hmm… i love makoto and komaru’s sibling dynamic, and one of my favorite naegami hcs is that komaru just makes him WORK for her approval. like she is absolutely not too shy to use the man for his money and makoto tries to stop her but she is relentless

unpopular opinion - not sure if this counts as entirely unpopular, but MAKOTO IS NOT AT ALL BORING. literally his behavior in future arc is the furthest thing from boring - he is straight up making the most UNHINGED and risky decisions and he deserves the acknowledgment that he is the opposite of boring!!!

song i associate with them - oooo i don’t have a specific song association for makoto but high hopes comes to mind since i know that song gets associated with him all the time for obvious reasons lol

favorite picture of them - I SEARCHED SO FAR TO FIND THIS PICTURE FROM WHEN I WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE THH MANGA bc it’s so funny for some reason. he’s such a little guy

[kedsandtubesocks]

we are a doing a reversal on these fandom asks erika!! E R I K A hehe

I feel like a shonen main character wanting to gasp dramatically and scream out “YOU MIRRORED MY ATTACK?” LOL

But also thank you Niku my dear Niku 🥺🌷🤍✨

E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom? If so, what?

I still think one of my funniest thing ever is just imagining Gojo going to a family gathering and coming back with so much damn gossip lmaooo like him being so excited about it I still hate how giggly it makes me and I’m glad I’ve seen how many folks have laughed and agreed with it 🥹💕

R - Which friendship/platonic relationship is your favorite in fandom?

All Might and Midoriya, no hesitation, I even have All Might’s speech of “whenever you’re scared or nervous…just try and deal with it by smiling!” tattooed on me because that sincerity and fatherly love All Might has for Deku just means so much to me

I - Has Tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?

I think about your response to this question and how I’ve been feeling the exact same way with the pedro fandom unfortunately, I still truly do love it and think of how good it can be because that creativity and community drew me in for a reason - I just feel sad and a little disheartened at how unwelcoming (and sometimes cliquey) it feels from time to time especially with new small writers like me ya know? I don’t ever want to get to a point where I fully dislike it but to have these emotions come up and to see how much it’s has negatively made me question my writing, my ideas, does bum me out 😞

K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?

♥️Joel Miller♥️ maybe it doesn’t help that I’ve been replaying the game but knowing how closed off and hurt he is at the beginning and then watching his warm unfold, for him to slowly come to love Ellie and become a father to her just breaks me wide open every time

A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.)

I can’t think of any omfg LMAOO IM SORRY 😭
