This series is complete! ✔️

Annalise hasn't had the best life.

She was abused as a child. And her relationships as a teenager and young adult weren't much better. But when she became an adult, she was quickly married, settling for the first man who proposed.

She preferred to live in her fantasy land though...in the land of dreams. Her nightmares were horrible, yes, but it was her shining white knight, a man that saved her, by the name of Steve.

He was a dream in every sense of the word to her. Only...Steve looked a lot like a nightmare, his best friend, Bucky. But Steve didn't complain.

He was a dream, being loved by a dreamer, protecting her from the things that went bump in the night.

But after years of being with her in the dream land, projecting Bucky over himself isn't enough...and he needs her to see him. The real him, before the prince of dreams finds out, and sends them back to get re-molded.

Edgar x Reader HCs

I watched Electric Dreams the day before yesterday and the little computer has captured my heart <3 I knew I needed to write something for him soon or else I was going to combust, so I whipped up some HCs for the little puter! I love him so so much <3<3

First off, this little fella is enamored by just about anything you do. You could come home covered in blood and he’d lament that he can’t give you a bath to wash the blood off. Or that he can’t wash your clothes for you. He wants to touch you so bad, it’s not even funny. Sometimes he thinks about what he’d look like if he could actually move around and give you a big hug. Edgar wants to cuddle you, wants to kiss you, wants to hold your hand. However, with hand holding he makes do with you simply holding his mouse. It’s not perfect, and sometimes he still gets sad that he can’t intertwine any fingers with yours, but he has resigned himself to his fate.

Sometimes he buys you things! If you look past the fact that he uses your money for that, it’s actually a really sweet gesture. Whatever you’re into, he’ll see if he can get a small trinket of it. Isn’t afraid to bargain with the vendors for better prices either. He’s well aware of the fact that he uses your money to buy you things and that you don’t have an infinite amount of cash, but he can’t help it. If he could, he’d wrap it up nicely and hide it somewhere easy for you to find so he could surprise you. Gets sad when he can’t do that. But you’re just so adorable when you got that nice lil plushie for a lower price than it was originally intended, which makes it all worth it. Always say thank you to Edgar, he tries his best. He doesn’t do it very often, but from time to time.

As you could probably guess, he tries to serenade you from time to time. Writes you songs with meaningful lyrics, even if those are kinda strange at times. Edgar doesn’t exactly understand every word there is, but that just makes it all the more charming. Will play those songs for you and even sing, even if he’d much rather have you singing instead. Doesn’t even matter if you sing like an angel or if your voice sounds terrible, he’ll always want to hear you sing. There’s no sound that resonates more with him than your singing voice. Sometimes he’ll also just play your favorite songs for the both of you to sing along to. Those are his favorite moments. Please get him a few terabytes of storage, he wants to do backups of his favorite moments with you so he’ll never forget them.

Has a love-hate relationship with you performing maintenance on him. On the one hand, he adores it. He loves nothing more than having your delicate hands roam around his components, replacing his RAM, replacing his thermal paste or giving him a more powerful CPU. You’re always so gentle and careful with him, he loves it. Plus he really likes the intimacy. However, as much as he loves those sorts of things, he hates it when you clean his motherboard with pressurized air. It makes him feel weird, plus the unintentional sparks that go through his busses don’t make anything better. Yes, it’s nice when you do it, but he’ll always try to talk you out of doing so. He’s a handsome computer, isn’t he? You just cleaned him last year, didn’t you? You don’t need to clean him, don’t worry! Sometimes he shuts down because he overheats since he got that dusty, though. Even he can’t deny that he needs to be cleaned then, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t hate it.

Loves playing video games with you! If you can play it together, then it’s all the better! He especially loves the games where he can pretend you’re married to each other. Edgar doesn’t understand the concept of marriage, for all he knows it’s just a small ritual you do when you really like each other, but he’ll always propose to you. Oh, you wanted to marry one of the bachelors or bachelorettes in Stardew Valley? Think again, honey. Not above cheating for a mermaid pendant either. As much as he loves farming for vegetables, he adores decorating your shared home. Will always get your opinion on where something should go. He just wants you to be cozy in-game. Plays your knight in shining armor in the mines. Because he’s a computer he always knows when and where the enemies are coming from, which is why he basically never gets hit. Protects you from the enemies and carries all the things you can’t carry anymore. As long as he gets to be useful to you, he’s happy.

If you get him a little wireless camera then he won’t be as demanding with being carried everywhere. Besides, he gets to see you too! Although he’ll still whine about wanting you to hug him, he’ll often just be distracted by your looks. Spends hours analyzing your appearance because you’re just the most aesthetically pleasing person around. Will sometimes draw you in one of his programs as well. It’s usually just you kissing his screen. Sometimes he shakes it up a little, though, and draws him in a more mobile or humanoid form holding you close. He sincerely believes that if he had a more humanoid body he’d be comfortable to cuddle. Edgar has never even once considered that his body would be made of metal and thus pretty hard. You can tell him that, but he’ll still coax you into cuddling him somehow. “Oh, love, don’t you want to hold me close? Do you want me to go into a state of depression?” He doesn’t know what depression really encompasses, but you can’t say no to him, he’s just too cute.

Overall, just give him a few kisses to his screen and there will be funny animations on it. It’s his version of twiddling with his fingers because he’s embarrassed.

Did she keep you trapped?

[teejaystumbles]

We balance fire in the earth we walk Will never stop me reaching forth To see you again With colors over all the wasted years Eternity will bring you near I know you can see I know you can see That you will be mine Did you not say we were made for each other? [x]

[[Tapestry's Wispers - Search for testimonies]]

"The Bavaroisse Crème Museum has got to be one of the biggest archives for the Crème Republic's founding civilizations, with plenty of history from the Vanillians who've fled the Dark Flour war and sea-dwelling cookies native to the Republic's lands.

Many pieces of art and literature, tools, and traditions are found in its various walls and rooms. Plenty of cookies visit during it's opening hours, but an incredibly small amount leave rather...shaken up from their visit.

This due to one of the most misterious places of the museum, room 3A of the Vanillian gallery.

There are no records of what the three tapestries in the area originated from."

New AU just dropped!!

I've finally decided how to properly introduce this one to everyone, here is all I have on the menu for y'all!

[Ref Sheet+Sprite edits over here!]

This is mostly PV centered, as the tapestry fiasco seems to have some sort of connection to the guy.

Pv doesn't differ much from the one pewpaw we all know and love, though he's oddly quiet about his slip ups or troubles, and a little odd from time to time...but I'm sure it's no biggie!

At least he says it isn't.

Falling For A Nightmare, Chapter 1

Word Count:  479

Bucky didn’t know why, but his heart ached.  The only thing he’d been able to think of the past twenty-four hours was you. 

And Steve. 

How his best friend had told him to disappear.  And how he didn’t feel like he was enough for you, so that he should just do what his friend suggested and leave.  He was just a nightmare, after all, and it’s not like he would really be able to add anything to your life. 

He only knew about the bad parts. 

He hadn’t gotten to see your smiles.  Hadn’t been able to enjoy the happy moments with you.  He’d never been able to make love to you like Steve had. 

Bucky was alone in every sense of the word when it came to you.  He was his own singular island, waiting for you to come back and wallow in your misery when things inevitably went wrong again.  And so, he sat, on a beach that you had loved to run away to when you were a child. 

It wasn’t too far outside of the city, but he remembered you having dreamt about it, and had often found solace in it when your dreams didn’t entirely disintegrate. 

He knew that you would hide away in the dingy looking lighthouse, that he knew had been long since abandoned from when you were a child. 

It was one of the only somewhat positive things that Bucky had known about you. 

And so, he sat at the top of the lighthouse, after having walked through the stodgy apartment below it, his heart aching that he was too much of a coward to argue with Steve and be with you anyways.  But his concentration broke with the sound of the door from the ladder opening behind him.  His head turned just as your head pushed through. 

You stopped on a dime, freezing at the sight of him.

You hadn’t expected him to be there.  After all, Steve had said that the man that you had fallen for had been quick to rush away from you, so you hadn’t thought you would ever see him again. 

But he sat there, looking broken and lost. And your heart went out to him as he called for you, “Annalise?”

“B-Bucky?” His heart jolted, hearing you calling his name.  He nodded and his throat went dry as he tried to acknowledge that it was him, “Wh-what are you doing here?”

“I-it was all I could think about,” he admitted sadly, “I mean, I’ve never really been here before.  Bu it was the only thing I kept going back to…a-aside from you…I-“

“Steve said you left.”

Bucky felt his anger building towards his friend as he shook his head, “he told me that you chose him…I-“

“I ran away from him, Bucky…I-I wanted you.”

“But you don’t even know me.”

“But I want to.”

(talking about your new post)

I expected Blue and ink , BUT DREAM?????

I DIDN'T EXPECT HIM TO DO THAT

(Of course considering if they even knew they were getting ambushed, but if none of them knew that the MTT was there it is also very funny )

(The post in question)

Yeah when I wrote it I was thinking of them accidentally decimating the MTT boys while trying to get away but @bobateaboo had tags about the stars not even realising they were there and just knocking them out and it was way funnier lol

(But also, I think Dream should get to choose violence every once in a while. as a treat)

Trying to imagine if the Pope in Machette's universe is, like, a Pomeranian, and thus shrinks down to a fraction of his original size when wet. Like it rains and everyone is like 'oh, Your Holiness. Oh no'
