[killemwithkawaii]

I had to draw the horribly under-rated best SF couple for the last Strange Nightmares Kickstarter challenge (bc you can't tell me David and Sara got hitched and then DIDN'T go on a kick-ass tropical honeymoon together🍹🥥🌊🌴💘)

Salloween 24: Dismembered

I was broken before he found me. Scattered and lost. Then he looked upon my face and saw all of me at once. After being discarded by everyone else, after years of not being seen or heard... he saw me. And we were in love. And everything was perfect. Until it all fell apart again. Now there is only pain.

Version without the glitch effect under the cut.

Okay I know I said I was done but then I messed it up and now I’m fixing it and now I love it 🥰 🔪

[wrightingwithalex]

Hello everyone!

My name is Alex, but people also call me Lex, Lexi, Lexus... Whatever at this point LMAO. I'm not new to tumblr, but I am new to posting on it. I don't really know how all of this works yet so bear with me!

Just to give you a heads-up, I'm really good at English, but it still isn't my first language, so if you see any spelling or grammar mistakes, don't mind it😭

So, I'm a writer, and my content is going to be character x reader 99% of the time. What I was thinking is that you guys send me requests for characters and scenarios you want me to write about (of course, as long as they are a character I know of) because my inspiration has been very lacking lately 💀. I will now give a list of all the characters I write for, as well as some rules for when you send asks.

By the way, if you want to remain anonymous, you can claim emoji's so that I know who you are!

I WILL WRITE:

Ace Attorney -> any character within the Phoenix Wright trilogy (Ace Attorney, Justice For All, Trials and Tribulations) 'cause those are the only games I've played so far

Sally Face -> Sal, Larry, Ash

Resident Evil -> Leon, Ada, Carlos, Ethan, Claire

Brooklyn 99 -> Jake, Amy, Rosa, Charles

Hunter x Hunter -> Kurapika

Minecraft Story Mode -> Jesse (male and female), Lukas, Petra

The Last of Us -> Ellie, Joel, Dina, Abby

Five Nights at Freddy's (movie) -> Mike, Vanessa, Steve Raglan/William Afton

Inside job -> Reagan, Brett

Arcane -> Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn, Mel, Victor, Sevika

Assassination Classroom –> Karma

Genshin Impact –> Albedo, Alhaitham, Arlecchino, Ayaka, Ayato, Childe, Clorinde, Cyno, Eula, Furina, Ganyu, Hu Tao, Itto, Jean, Kazuha, Keqing, Kokomi, Lyney, Mona, Navia, Neuvillette, Nilou, Raiden, Shenhe, Tighnari, Venti, Wanderer, Wriothesley, Xianyun, Yae Miko, Yelan, Yoimiya, Zhongli, Beidou, Bennett (nothing more than a kiss 'cause he's a minor), Candace, Charlotte, Fischl (nothing more than a kiss 'cause she's a minor), Gaming, Gorou, Heizou, Kaeya, Kuki Shinobu, Lisa, Lynette, Ningguang, Noelle, Rosaria, Kujou Sara, Sucrose, Thoma

mostly fem!reader and gn!reader –> female characters will be with fem!reader by default (gn!reader only if you request it), male characters are with gn!reader by default (fem!reader only if you request it)

I WILL NOT WRITE:

smut -> kissing yes, anything more than that no; I still feel awkward writing it, let alone uploading it LOL

male!reader (sorry :C)

non-con and dub-con -> I believe in consent

pregnancy trope

extreme age gap -> anything more than a 15 year age difference is a no

pedophilia

P.S. I'm a music major and it can get extremely busy sometimes so it's gonna take some time for me to write, but I don't think it should take any more than a week.

Minors can interact, since I'm not writing any smut!

That's gonna be all from me for today. I'll update this list if I get a new show/game I'm interested in, or if there's a change in the rules. I look forward to your requests, and I can't wait to start writing them! xx

[grittyreadsfic]

happy hockey big bang to those who celebrate! i have once again had the chance to create secondary works for a couple of incredible fics, like in love, or whatever.

i really wanted to build a playlist with songs that feel like summer and the shore, and capture those feelings the same way this fic did. you can find the playlist here and you can see the track listing below the cut with some key lyrics pulled out

I'm a sucker for an aching heart / Gotta suffer for the sake of art / And I want you cause you make it hard

foolish one - taylor swift

Oh, you haven't written me or called / But goodbye screamin' in the silence / And the voices in my head are tellin' me why

enough for you - maisie peters

And that hole in my chest gets a bit bigger / And it dawns on me / All the things that I couldn't see / It was perfect as long as it wasn't real

that was then - emily james

We were a summer kissed red but oh that was then / And this is now

(un)lost - the maine

I'm not looking for anything in particular / But I'm far more desperate than you think

maybe dont - maisie peters (ft jp saxe)

Yeah, I run from the things that I want the most / You said, "I get that's what you do, but maybe don't."

i left a party for you - pilar victoria

I know how you feel, if this is real, what do I do?

closer - tegan and sara

Here comes the breath before we get, a little bit closer / Here comes the rush before we touch, come a little closer

in the movie version of this fic i directed in my head while reading it, this song would be playing softly in the background of the arcade while luke shows trevor how to play pinball

i wanna be your girlfriend - girl in red

I wanna kiss you until I lose my breath / I don't wanna be your friend

generally, i try to do songs from the perspective of the pov character, but this song just felt so trevor in the fic that it had to make the cut

hurt - sasha alex sloan

I freak out every time we get closer / Cause I'm scared that it's just gonna hurt

treacherous - taylor swift

And I just think you should, think you should know / That nothing safe is worth the drive / And I would follow you, follow you home

harry and sally - taylor bickett and charlie pittman

Cause it isn't killing me we're not in love yet / We're just in the part, we're just in the part / Right before we figure it out

i saw your face - emily james

We could sit in silence / While this feeling finds its space / Keep the moment gentle / As it settles into place

the reasons - the weakerthans

I know you might roll your eyes at this / But I'm so glad that you exist

technicolor - sainte

Fell into you like the sea / You broke my fall / And you pulled me deep / I think that you should know this uncertainty has got me restless / Counting myself to sleep

millhouse - maisie peters

But in you, darling, I trust / Oh, everything's coming up Milhouse

love in real time - the maine

I've never felt so / Comfortable / In the middle of the summertime / Working on our / Love in real time / Making all this / Love in real time

[theitalianscribe]

So I had a crossover dream.

Wiatt and Sara from Welcome to Dreamworld were sent to the world of Nightmare Before Christmas.

Sara didn't have a body, so she appeared as a floating crystal ball with her face inside.

Jack Skeleton, Sally, and Oogie Boogie were in a thruple.

When Wiatt complained that he kept getting dice bombed by bats, Jack lent him and Sara hats that Sally had knitted for Jack and Oogie.

I don't know why I made this post. I think the idea of Oogie Sally and Jack adopting two kids, one of which is just a floating head and the other a Blaire Witch protagonist kinnie is surprisingly wholesome and I need to infect the rest of the fandom with this image.

Inferno: Mike Duarte x Reader

Tagging: @nessamc    @xmoonknightlyx    @jayblackpanther  @crazy4chickennuggets    @annetje    @mysoulisasunflower @littleone65    @thesandbeneathmytoes    @storiesofsvu​ 

The Jeep was a still a raging inferno when Mike Duarte made it to the scene, even from this distance he could feel the heat of the flames across his skin as fire fighters tackled the unruly blaze.

The Fire Marshall Sally Buchanan was already onsite, her curly black hair tucked underneath her dirty yellow hat as she bayed orders at her fire fighters. It had been her that had recognised his detective’s car and called him down here. Uniforms were on the scene, and he watched from the side-lines as the Sergeant on call snapped at his own policemen to maintain a perimeter with their yellow tape. Word had spread that this was a fellow cop and the air crackled with the tension and dread.

Through the driver's side window Mike could see the blackened skeletal form hunched in the front seat, the skin was still clinging to ruined bones, crinkled and patchy as the stench of burnt flesh hung in the air. He could taste it at the back of his throat, he swallowed hard past the bile that was climbing from the pit of his stomach. He didn't want to believe it was Guetta. But it was his car, there were still flecks of that garish yellow visible through the fire.

Behind him someone was calling him by his rank and Mike turned to see you shoving your way through the crowd, thrusting your police badge in the face of every single person who dared cross your path. The expression on your features was agonising and he felt it tearing him up inside. You looked as dishevelled as he did, hair was pulled back into a messy bun, jeans creased as if they had spent the early hours of the morning on the floor. You were wearing a baggy grey hoodie that had seen far better days and worn Converse.

You didn't need to see this; Mike didn't want you to have this memory of your partner in your head. He knew that there were things that could scar the very fibre of someone's being and this one of them. He wanted to protect you from this. Mike found himself moving automatically, his broad body shifting so that the burning wreckage was obscured. His large, warm hands came to rest upon your shoulders halting your progression and obscuring your view.

"Don't look." he advised; his tone thick with emotion as he stared into those anguished eyes of yours.

There was a moment of comprehension. Mike watched it cross your features, his heart aching inside of his chest as the reality dawned on you. The questions that he had been asking about Guetta on the phone were finally making sense and your whole body sagged under the weight of the knowledge that your partner’s car lay beyond the Captain, still burning away. Your eyes searched Mike’s ravaged face, the tightness in his features and the way his lips pursed into that grim line...

He knew what this would do to you and he was trying to spare you from it. You appreciated that, you really did but at the same time it was a hindrance. The cop in you needed to see the scene, to assess it. If that was Guetta in that car, you would move heaven and earth to see him get justice. Mike knew that, you could see it in his pinched features and you thought perhaps that was the real reason he was shielding you away from the scene.

"Have you spoken to Sara?" you said quietly, struggled to breathe past the crushing sensation in your chest.

Already you could feel the darkness homing in on you and it was only a matter of time before it took over completely. You welcomed the numbness, because it was better than feeling this violent rage that was brimming up inside of you.

"She says he didn't come home. We've tried his cell, but it goes straight to voicemail." Mike reiterated, bowing his head slightly to read your expression. “I think it’s him.”

Fathomless was the only way he could describe it. You were processing, he could see that but there was so much more going on behind those eyes of your and he could tell that you were regressing in such a manner that it frightened him. Your essence was slipping away and a coldness was filling you up inside. He had been there; he had experienced it himself.

He had allowed the darker side of his being to take over and some of the things he had done were unforgivable. It made it hard to live with himself all these years later. He could see the same madness in you, it was in the way your jaw clenched and your fists began to ball. He knew what it was like to be out of control. It was like a drug rushing through your veins with only violence and vengeance. He knew how hard it was to come back from that, he kept such a tight control of himself these days because he was terrified that the blood thirty monster inside would wreak havoc on the ones that had torn his life apart be damned the consequences or the casualties.

He squeezed your shoulders lightly, his thumbs skating the fabric of your hoodie until they came into contact with your cool skin. There was heat in his hands and you felt his warmth flooding through your connection, seeping through the cracks in your walls. Mike was stripping away the barriers and leaving you open to him all over again. With anyone else you wouldn't have allowed it but with him there was no choice. He could see through any façade you put up and you both loved and hated that fact.

"Mi vida.” The endearment rolled off his tongue like liquid honey, allowing you a second to gather yourself before you took full control once more. He was right, of course. You couldn't allow yourself to fall apart, you needed answers and the only way you could get them was if you pulled yourself together. You had to take control of the situation and deal with it accordingly. Your partner deserved that.

"We've got a job to do." Mike reminded you, his voice becoming authoritative as the Captain took over once more.

Your gaze strayed to the bellowing smoke that plumed in the air behind him, the flames still licking up high into the early morning sky.

You owed it to Guetta to see the job done.

Like My Work? - Why Not Buy Me A Coffee

[detectiveichijouji]

Case 17 - Real? Fake? The thread of lies

[AO3 version]

“... I sensed a digimon nearby that time Akitomo Rika was a target…”

Arsenemon mused all alone, watching Tokyo’s landscape at night. So he was right… Someone was using the digimon and humans to cause havoc. He then counted the cases of rampaging wicked evolutions with his magic:

 “Bakumon’s case, Sloth. Koubara Takuya’s case, Pride. Witchmon Sally’s case, Greed. Akitomo Rika’s case, Gluttony.”

“Those seem to be reacting to the deepest human and digimon’s emotions and deadly sins…” He watched closely his notes in thin air, “Which ones are left…? Lust, Envy and Wrath?”

“YOO! BOSS!!” Miss Espimon popped out, flying next to him, “Huh? What’s wrong?”

“Ah, mademoiselle Espimon” he looked at her, “I don’t think… Those cases are random…”

“Hmmm…” She looked at the magical notes in front of him, “Do you think some of those cases…?”

“They’re targeting the kids and moi, but for what purpose…?”

“Well, you both are after the Digimental of Desire’s pieces… So maybe… Wait, is Shinkai Sara’s Bakumon linked to either of us?”

“Hmm, true, maybe this one was a test for something… But I do remember mademoiselle Lune be friends with both Shinkai Sara and Shinjo Michi… And she is linked to…”

“MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN, I’m tired!” Daisuke sighed. He had finished cleaning his room and sat on the floor, “But I have to keep things organized now, I’m no kid anymore!”

“Hmm… Is it me or are you getting a little more responsible?” Chibimon chuckled.

“Oi, I’m responsible! I always WAS responsible!” he snapped.

“Dai-chan, your friends are here~” He heard his mother knocking on his door.

“A-ah right! I forgot Ken and the others would pass by today!!”

“For what occasion this time?”

“... We’re just worried about Takeru,” Daisuke replied with a frown, “Something smells like a problem in the future. And more things…”

He opened the door and greeted the other four people and four digimon who came in -- For some reason, Takeru and Patamon weren’t present. After an awkward silence between all five, Ken broke it by starting with an important subject:

“I think we should go back to the place I found that Digimental 6 years ago and look for clues.”

“You mean…” Miyako said, and everyone looked at Ken, “When you were the Kaiser?”

“Yes.”

“Ichijouji-san, did you build any more facilities as the Kaiser before?” Iori asked, curious.

“My memories were foggy for a while, but now I do remember about that dark past more clearly.”

“Hey, is it OK to ask you stuff like this though?” Daisuke seemed concerned.

“Don’t worry about it,” and Ken smiled softly, “I don’t intend to go back to that mindset. I think… Having you guys, my family and the digimon helped me to improve myself and recover my heart. So I won’t be the Kaiser again.”

“You kinda dodged the question, dagya” Upamon said.

“He didn’t,” Minomon replied instead, “Ken-chan was assuring Daisuke that it’s fine to ask him that question.”

“Oh…”

“Which means I…” Ken cleared his throat, “I did make small facilities through the Digital World. And one of them was where I found that Digimental.”

“Oh…” The others reacted, but Iori and Tailmon were silent.

“If we’re going to find a way to track down the perpetrator spreading those pieces… We have to check down there.”

“So we’re going to the place it all began?” Poromon asked.

“Hold on,” Tailmon interrupted them, “Someone has to stay here and keep everything under control.”

“Tailmon’s right,” Daisuke nodded sagely, “And I don’t think Takeru and Patamon are in the right mood for a Digital World trip… And there’s Arsenemon too.”

“That’s why I want you to stay here, Daisuke,” Ken replied with a serious tone of voice, “You and Hikari-san should stay here and help Takeru-kun.”

“That’s a bad idea” Chibimon babbled, “We shouldn’t break the Jogress pairs like that! What if one of us faces a tougher enemy??”

“In that case…” Iori looked at Ken, “I will stay. Takeru-san is my Jogress partner after all.”

“But Daisuke has some affinity with Arsenemon,” Miyako mused, “And we know he’s the most determined to go after that thief.”

“I can’t turn my back on y’all…” Daisuke frowned again, “But I’m worried about something happening to either of you. I should go with Ken, but I can’t let Arsenemon catch more pieces… Can I split in two and do both things together!?”

“Split in two??” Everyone just repeated, but then they decided to not question Daisuke’s logic.

“Like, a digimon copy me and--”

“Take this seriously, please?!” Miyako and Ken snapped at him.

“Alright, alright…” he pouted, “Take Hikari-chan and Miyako with you. Iori and I will stay here and keep things in peace.”

“And Daisuke,” Ken looked right into Daisuke’s eyes, “Don’t trust Noel.”

“H-huh!?”

“He’s too suspicious, he might be approaching you for another reason.”

“... I don’t understand what ya mean but I’ll be careful…”

What do ya mean… Noel’s not a bad guy, man… -- Daisuke thought, pouting like a kid hours after their gathering and when everyone went home.

Ken did not explain anything though… So Daisuke’s reaction was that Ken was either jealous of Noel or he spotted something odd already. But his ‘Shade People radar’ never caught anything strange towards Noel…

Meanwhile, Takeru was still upset. He was looking at Patamon playing with those toy blocks… He was… Feeling a mix of anger and fear of having to see Patamon taking the form of the same-or-similar digimon who brought him misfortune as a kid 9 years ago.

“Takeru…?” Patamon looked back at his partner, “What’s wrong?”

“N-Nothing…” Takeru smiled, but it was one of those fake smiles he put on his face to not let anyone else worry about him, “I’m just glad you’re fine now.”

“Huh…?” Patamon blinked and tilted his head, “Okay then…?”

I didn’t know that… That Patamon can turn into that kind of digimon… -- Takeru was thoughtful. That image was still playing in his head:

“TAKERUUUU, HELP!!”“PATAMON!!”

That fusion between Rika, her Kuramon partner and Patamon turning into IceDevimon was causing him so much pain. He tried to forget it! But every time he looked at Patamon… He was afraid of Patamon taking that form again.

Takeru then sighed, and he heard the doorbell ringing. Maybe it was his mother, right? He expected her to come late tonight… But once he opened the door he met a hooded creature of the same size as a V-mon, or a little taller than one.

“Huh, who are you?” Takeru blinked.

“Heheh…” the hooded digimon chuckled, “I’m the answer to your despair, human. You want to catch the one causing you awful nightmares, right? Sooooo… What if we make a deal?”

“I don’t want to make a deal with a stranger digimon…”

“Why not? I have the power you want, I know you want to punish the one who caused that pain on you.”

“I’m sorry, but no. I have more important things to do.”

“Tsk, you’re missing a great opportunity to unleash your rage against that guy!” Then the hooded digimon showed Takeru a very peculiar shard .

“Y-you… Where did you…?!”

Next day, after school… The group gathered at the karaoke booth, and they discussed the next steps of their investigation.

“Make sure to keep the communicator online” Miyako reminded them, “If we take too long to return…”

“We tell your families that y’all are on a sleepover at my house, gotcha” Daisuke nodded.

“But why at Daisuke-san’s house?” Wormmon asked.

“I don’t think we could justify a flip of 180º in my personality to throw a sleepover out of the blue,” Iori replied nonchalantly.

“True, true,” V-mon agreed with a shrug.

“Iori ain’t a party animal like Daisuke, dagya” Armadimon added.

Suddenly, the door of the booth opened, and someone walked in. They all looked at the person standing in front of them.

“Yo, I’m back.”

“Takeru(-kun/san)??” the group exclaimed.

It was indeed Takeru. But… Patamon was not with him.

“How are you today, Takeru-san?” Iori asked, “And where’s Patamon?”

“Patamon’s fine. I can here to tell you I’m doing well now and there’s no need to worry,” he smiled, but… Something was off for Daisuke, Iori and Ken.

Patamon is fine but it’s not here? This doesn’t seem good… -- The boys thought.

“If Patamon’s fine why isn’t he with you…?” Hawkmon asked out of curiosity.

“He’s resting at home, being fused like that had drained his energies” he answered the question without hesitating, “But he’s doing well too.”

“Ok then…” Tailmon looked at everyone else, then they looked at her.

They whispered something to not let Takeru hear them out:

“This is suspicious…” Tailmon said, “Hikari, Daisuke, V-mon and I didn’t see him at school today…”“Patamon wouldn’t want to stay at home too,” V-mon added. “Something is off here… Maybe he’s Arsenemon in disguise” Armadimon whispered. “We don’t know but we shouldn’t turn our guard down,” Hawkmon muttered back. “Alright, leave it to Iori and me,” Daisuke replied, and the others nodded in return.

Daisuke looked at Takeru, “Sooooooo if you’re fine now we should hang out and grab a grub! Right, Iori??” 

“Exactly. Would you guys like to come too?”

“Oh we’re busy!” Miyako replied, “Can’t go with you three.”

“Busy with what?” Takeru asked.

“It doesn’t matter what it is!” Daisuke started pulling Takeru out of the booth, “Let’s go eat some pumpkin pie, for the season.”

“And then we could look for costumes for the Halloween festival!” V-mon added.

“I’d like to try a hat this year,” Armadimon commented; he and Iori pretended to be leaving the booth, only to allow the group to go to the Digital World.

Once Ken, Wormmon, Miyako, Hawkmon, Hikari and Tailmon were in the Digital World… Iori and Armadimon turned the laptop off and took it with him. In the Digital World, the expedition began, with the group arriving at one of the old Digimon Kaiser’s basements near the mountainous area.

“According to the archives stored in my computer six years ago, this is the area I found that Digimental.”

“What are we exactly looking for, Ichijouji-kun?” Hikari asked gently, following the boy through the area.

“Anything suspicious, if possible.”

“Ok…”

“One more question,” Tailmon pointed at Wormmon, who was wearing nerdy-like glasses and a medical mask, “Why is Wormmon with that getup?”

Ken glanced at Wormmon, who shivered in fear. Ken sighed, “He’s trying to not call everyone’s attention I suppose. To not get us in trouble.”

“E-exactly!” Wormmon’s voice was a little muffled by the mask, “Everyone knows I was the Digimon Kaiser’s pet digimon, they could recognize me and then Ken-chan would be discovered.”

“I thought you had publicly apologized to the digimon” Miyako frowned.

“At this point they forgot about the Kaiser,” Hawkmon said, “And you have done a lot of good actions to compensate for the issues you had caused in the past.”

“But do you know how bad it could be if we’re seen entering one of those abandoned buildings!?” Wormmon continued, “It’s better safe than sorry.”

“Ok…” Ken looked at the girls, “I think he got a point here.”

The girls and their partners shook their heads in silence. Then, they started seeking for clues.

It will be 35 minutes since they left the karaoke booth and Daisuke was acting suspiciously. He believed Takeru was actually Arsenemon, and Iori was also watching every movement Takeru made. V-mon and Armadimon were also watching Takeru silently, and this whole weird behavior from the four started to make things awkward.

“... Why are you four acting weirdly all of a sudden?”

“Ok. Why are you acting weirdly today!?” Daisuke snapped, “You ain’t Takeru, or are?”

“I’m not acting weird, I had a traumatic episode again. Sorry for worrying everyone...”

“That sounds more like the usual Takeru-san,” Iori commented, taking a sip of his ice tea next.

“Then, where’s Patamon?” V-mon asked, “Did something happen to him?”

“He’s fine, I already said it.”

“No offense, but you’re not the kind to leave Patamon at home” Daisuke squinted his eyes, “Like, none of us would do that unless something really risky could happen to them.”

“... Ok, I admit there is something wrong with him.”

“What is it, dagya?”

“I’m leaving him out because…” and then he showed a fragment of the forbidden Digimental.

“W-WHERE DID YOU GET THAT (dagya)?!” all four exclaimed.

“I found it lying on my doorstep. I’m trying to keep it away from Patamon… I don’t want him to evolve into that Devimon-like creature again…”

“I see…” Iori replied and he, Daisuke and their digimon sighed in relief.

“Now that you got it, you should send it to Koushiro-san, just in case” Daisuke suggested.

“I will do that, but first I need to check out something with Yamato. I heard he got into trouble with his new band…”

“That’s right! I heard that too” Daisuke exclaimed, then looked at Iori, “Right? Taichi-san and Koushiro-san were chatting about it on the group’s chat.”

“Then, I’ll be going. See you later,” and he left in a hurry.

“... Iori.” Daisuke stared at him, “There’s something off here.”

“It’s surprising how you noticed it too.”

“Huh?” V-mon blinked.

Hours later, Ken, Miyako, Hikari and their digimon kept inspecting the area Ken found the Digimental of Desire 6 years ago. But Ken sensed something was wrong. And when he realized…

A digimon attacked him from the shadows.

Wormmon removed his getup and evolved immediately to Stingmon and hit the beast, whose Tailmon identified as being a Manticoremon . It kept targeting Ken and Stingmon, forcing Hawkmon and Tailmon to evolve into Silphymon and join the battle.

They kept attacking Manticoremon, but not to kill it but rather make it weak and allow them to escape. Ken didn’t need to wonder why he was the enemy’s target though… But Miyako and Hikari wouldn’t allow him to be caught.

“Dual Sonic!!”“Moon Shooter!!”

The shock wave from Silphymon and the spikes fired by Stingmon seemed to have made Manticoremon weaker. It stepped back out of a sudden and restrained itself from attacking again. That action made both Stingmon and Silphymon confused, was it giving them a chance to escape?

Then they decided to take a chance to escape, only to catch up with Ken, Miyako and Hikari and get surprised by an angel-like digimon with a sacred fire staff. At first, they all thought it was their ally until said angel -- Said to be ArkhaiAngemon according to Tailmon once again, tried to burn them with its fire staff. The trio’s digimon protected them by grabbing the kids and dodging the fire.

“Why are you attacking us?!” Miyako growled, “UGH, is it because we invaded your territory??”

ArkhaiAngemon did not say anything, and when he was about to attack the group again…

“X-LASER!!”“GOLD RUSH!!”

It was interrupted by XV-mon and Digmon’s attacks, which it repelled with the Holy Rod. But why were Daisuke and Iori there after all?! Daisuke, XV-mon and Digmon stood in front of the angel-like digimon, while Iori went to check the other three and their partners.

“Why are you here?!” Silphymon (Aquilamon side) asked them. “How about Takeru-kun??” Hikari also added a second question.

“Heh, you thought we would be stupid enough to not notice what you had done?” Daisuke smirked, but something sounded like him wavering at the same time, “Ain’t we pals, Takeru?”

“W-what?!” Ken, Miyako and Hikari plus their partners exclaimed in surprise.

“How about you get rid of that thing before you get real hurt?!” Daisuke shouted, “You’re WAY STRONGER THAN THAT!!”

“Kh…!!”

“How…??” Ken blinked, “How did this happen?”

Iori took a breath and then explained, hesitantly, “Takeru-san said he found a fragment, and that we would give it to Koushiro-san, but first he had to cheer Yamato-san up because of issues with the new band.”

“Except we all know Yamato-san’s band is on an undetermined hiatus” Daisuke added, displeased, “Which made us follow you and see you opening the gate and then using the friggin fragment on you.”

“But… Why?” Hikari was speechless.

“Yeah, Takeru, why did you do that?” Daisuke stared at him, “Snap out of it, dude!!”

“It’s… it’s thanks to Ichijouji-kun that Patamon evolved into that monster…!!”

“When will my issues with Takeru-kun end?” Ken muttered.

“If he hadn’t destroyed the Digimental of Desire, none of us would’ve been in pain now!”

“DUDE!” Daisuke growled, “It’s the Digimental fragment messing up with your brain! Ken might have been an idiot in the past, throwing a tantrum and messing things up… But he’s NOT the one offering pieces of some wicked Digimental to innocent people!!”

“...!!”

Daisuke approached ArkhaiAngemon and…

“OPEN YOUR DARN EYES, TAKAISHI TAKERU!!”

SLAP!!

Daisuke slapped him in the face.

Manticoremon came after him, only to have the other digimon stop it from reaching Daisuke.

“Meeeeeeh, this is boring! I wanted to watch a real betrayal happening, hmph!”

“?! Who’s there?!” Ken shouted, and everyone looked around… Until they found a V-mon sized hooded digimon.

“My my, hey kiddo!” the hooded digimon talked to Takeru, “End their lives already! They’re messing things up with you and your beloved Pata-- I mean, Manticoremon! I promised you this power would be peeeeeeeeeeerfect for your vengeance!!”

“How dare you mess with our friend's mind!” Miyako yelled angrily.

“Takeru-kun, please” Hikari said desperately, “Stop…!!”

“I… I DON’T… WANT… IT…!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!” And he threw the staff on the floor, with the holy flame extinguishing as the Holy Rod hit the ground. The evolution broke and Takeru fell on Daisuke’s arms, exhausted.

“TAKERU(-KUN/SAN)” the group exclaimed.

At the same time, Maricoremon devolved back to Patamon and fainted on the floor.

“Meh, I should’ve chosen someone stronger for that show!” the hooded digimon pouted.

“Who are you?!” Silphymon (Tailmon side) shouted, clenching their hand.

“I’m nobody and you don’t need to--”

“Gold Rush.” Digmon got tired of the pepsqueak-mon and threw a drill at its hood, uncovering the digimon’s face.

“G-GAH! NOT MY FACE!!” It was an Impmon with an eyepatch “RUDE! I’M TRYING TO BE A GOOD HOST!”

“A host?” Iori repeated.

“Come on!! You should entertain us… Isn’t it fun that way, Digimon Kaiser?”

“Huh?” they seemed to be confused.

“Oh, look…! I have to go now, see ya~” and then, Impmon vanished.

“H-hey come back here--” Daisuke shouted.

Someone else was watching them in silence -- Noel. He gritted his teeth, and clenched his fist. You would usually see Noel being a shy and awkward kid… But this time he was a total opposite of it. His bangs uncovered his right eye, and he was staring at the place that Impmon was.

Comme c'est impardonnable!! -- Noel thought -- Using friends like these…!! Maybe I should… Tell them the truth.

And then, Noel left without leaving any trace.

Macario climbed into the car. As the men set off into the pounding rainstorm, Pika waved to them. The speed Dom drove would normally not have worried Macario, but he could hardly see the road ahead.

“I’ve never heard of Snowman Railways before,” Macario said, trying to distract himself from the velocity of the vehicle.

“Only elves and snowbirds have,” Dom laughed. “So, an FBI agent. Fascinating! Did you always want to be a detective, or did you fall into the profession?”

About the Author:

C. L. Hart, the owner and sole employee of Naughty Netherworld Press, is spoken of in hushed tones. She is described as The Mad Scribe of the Northeastern Colorado Plains, The Terrible Old Woman, and The Author That Should Not Be.

When not penning sanity-destroying works of dystopian fiction, Lovecraftian fantasy, or old-school horror with the occasional sweet romance thrown in to upset the cosmic apple cart, Ms. Hart enjoys creating baked goods she hopes will be considered palatable.

Ms. Hart shares a home in a remote rural town of 134 souls with her adult son and three cats. Her sense of fashion is best described as Early Twenty-First Century Unmade Bed. This disabled former nurse can usually be found arguing with herself about subplots or rehabilitating eldritch horrors.

[killemwithkawaii]

do you have any new headcanons for the four horsemen after the lore drops we got in the last livestream?? (i cant believe sally face 2 is gonna be a dating sim)

>Ngl bro my memory is shit and all the spam in the chat was really distracting, so all the new lore I remember is that Sals ideal date is 'Having a date' (fucking brutal Steve lmao), Larrys ideal date is 'A metal show and getting pizza' (predictable but so him and I love it) and Sara and Davids backstory (WHICH WAS SO SWEET??? LIKE TRUE OTP I UNIRONICALLY ADORE THEM GUYS 🥺💘)

>The two hcs i distinctly remember forming during that particular stream were: 'Sal is a desperate and hopeless romantic that would literally jump at the chance to take you wandering around in the woods (more a previous hc confirmed as canon but still)' and 'Ash is a big ol' lesbian (lbr we been knew it was pretty obvious 🤷‍♂️🌈)'

>Just like I did with the pre-launch game demo livestream, I'm planning on doing a service for the SF fandom by rewatching all of the livestreams that took place during the kickstarter and rereading all of Steves twitter posts from that time period in order to compile every scrap of new lore that was dropped and organize it into one big handy-dandy reference post for everyones convenience 👌📝 It's going to take some time, but I'm sure that it'll spark some new HCs from me in the process!! c:

>lmao I can't believe it either, but goddamn am I looking forward to being fed directly from the source 🥺🙏🍴💘 (Take your time Steve, we know that that kind of quality content needs to be cooked low and slow~ uwu 👌)

[absolutelybatty]

Salloween Day 11: Weird There's a lot that I could have done for today's prompt since the game is insane but I felt like this was weird enough. I kinda like David and Sal's interactions. The fact Sal doesn't seem to treat him as any different, and just kinda accepts Sara is his mannequin wife. Sure, why not?

[dtaegis]

What are the dynamics of your JD ships?

anon omg you're encouraging me....... keep doing it pls :3333

i'm gonna be using the rarepair image (that i remade bc kyran and lexy were bugging me) as a guide but i'll be talking about some others too

warning long LONG post. i tried to keep it short but i can't shut my mouth

Lord William/Liege Rosal: they had a secret thing back when they were alive that really didn't end well. when they meet again as ghosts things are a bit rough at first, but they quickly warmed up to one another again. nowadays they don't exactly know how to define themselves (friends? boyfriends? situationships, as the youngsters call?)

Kyran/Lexy: situationship that quickly escalated to something more intimate. none of them know how and if they should approach this subject

Lilith/Nyxara: i believe they're in a lovingly relationship and like to make men miserable lmao (nyxara's a homewrecker but doesn't get to the kissing or even sleeping part with the men she ruins the relationship, she dumps them before it comes around. then lilith comes and corrupts them heheh)

Paige/Talia Sway: girlies getting over failed relationships and finding out they like girls in the process !

Night Swan/Sara: Night Swan sees a lot of her younger self in Sara and finds herself having a strange obsession with the girl. it's not quite love, but she feels like she needs to have her by her side. kinda like a prize. Sara is straight up not having a good time

Colt Wade/Sally Mystic: OUGHHHHH THEY'RE MY FAVORITES soulmates (and maybe red string of fate as well?) basically. they met back when sally was a sheriff and had a quick but intense thing before sally was. Wiped from Existence. they met again now that's she a magician and they automatically feel driven to one another, even if they're from such different worlds

Amalthea/Wanderlust: they also had a secret thing back in the day but wanderlust was shameful of it (maybe the equivalent of catholic guilt in the danceverses?) and just. ghosted amalthea one day. amalthea hates his ass. sorry for ruining wholesome wanderlust 😔 ik he's a good boy it's just that he lacks communication skills

BONUS!!!

Moxie/Jennifer: bitter exes with benefits. they tell the whole school and their moms that they hate one another but you'll catch them making out in the janitor's room

PandaFan/DeerStan: coworkers who have a Crush on each other but never do anything bc well. work romance sure leads to Drama. in the danceverse they start to get more intimate but only when they're alone or at night, when it's morning they treat each other as normal as before. deep down they're both scared of making anything official (although DeerStan feels sad for being treated like a side chick JJDHSHDHD)

PandaFan/UnicornLover/DeerStan: the boys felt a natural attraction to UnicornLover, like she belonged right there with them. ofc this just confused even more their already confused heads. she's having none of that and make they both confess to one another and then to her and although they never call "dating", they all start dating together hfjdjdjdjf

Iris/Eva: augh enemies to lovers. Iris never really saw in face the woman she's chasing after but grew fond of her little teases she leaves behind, much to her displeasure. she's also a big fan of actress Eva Chase 👁👁 when they meet it becomes something like cat and rat bc she knows she needs to catch Eva but she's too fascinated by the woman. lots of homoeroticism

Eva/Rasputin: OUT OF POCKET VERY RANDOM I KNOW BUT LISTEN it started initially as a meme (both rasputin and eva being plausible coaches who broke the gaga coaches out of prison + the romantic meaning of paparazzi + the "girl leave him" meaning of you love who you love) and it quickly evolved into Thoughts. there's some possibilities here: she's the side chick and the cause of his divorce, she's in love with him and he's like "girl i'm married", they both started to grow closer after his divorce, many things. but their dynamic to me is serious "leader" woman X funny "sidekick" man
