Hazbin hotel college AU head cannons

Note: decided to write these out after reading @sprainedwriting’s fanfic about Adam being a frat boy and I took that concept and ran with it.

Obviously this is based off of my own university experience where I attend a really big public university in the southern US. so that’s where my takes are coming from.

This is also my first time writing anything on here so there’s that aswell.

Charlie

Majors in musical theatre, but not performance education. She wants to be the unhinged theatre teacher that everyone loves. Lives in one of those really fancy student apartment lofts with keke. And is part of the cat club where she feeds the cats on campus

Vaggie

She probably does something super hard like biomedical engineering (let’s go women in stem!) which takes up allot of her time already. Is also an RA for one of the dorms on campus which is good for her bc free housing and gets paid to do her homework at the front desk. Met Charlie in an English class and have been together ever since. When she’s not on call she’s spending the night at Charlie’s and Charlie’s almost always sitting at the front desk with vaggie even tho she doesn’t work or live at the dorm and no one says anything bc it’s just not that deep.

Alastor

Majors in audio engineering and runs the campus radio station that people definitely still listen too. He went to community college first then transferred to a four year (to save money ofc) and is a commuter where he still lives with his mom. Does work study where he works the front desk of the library where he does his homework and works on his scripts for his radio show. Has no interest in working with Vox since he runs the tv channel simply bc he doesn’t want all that extra work. Still takes his notes on pen and paper and still has a nightmare of a time figuring out to electronically submit all his assignments and take his tests.

Angel dust

Okay so hear me out he majors in math ikik it sounds crazy but every gay math major I’ve ever met acts just like Angel dust. Goes to raves and frat parties even tho the guys don’t want him there but he always brings girls with him so the kinda have to let him in. Does nude modeling for extra cash at the art school so he’s kinda a celeb over there even tho he’s not in anyway related to that major.

Husk

Majors in Restaurant and hotel management and is one of those college students that are in their late twenties so already has more life experience than most other ppl here so he doesn’t do allot of the stupid college that allot of other ppl do. Lives in some off campus apartment that’s just a large house rented out to students made to look like a apartment (yk the ones in talking abt) works at the dive bar located just off campus that everyone goes to atleast once in their four years.

Sir pentious

Majors in mechanical engineering or industrial design I can’t really decided. Definitely uses the 3D printer all the time and is on the robotics team, which wins every competition they go to.

Nifty

She’s changed her major so many times nobody knows anymore. Is part of the kpop club and has biases complete with intricately decorated covers, like she has so many photo cards. Also runs the campus hotties account where it’s just a bunch of candids of cute guys taken from far away. Will also get really pissed if you don’t wash your dishes bc it will attract bugs so if ur her roommate you better do the dam dishes.

Cherry bomb

Art major and is the one who got Angel the nude modeling gig. Is always pulling all nighters bc she kept postponing the assimgment till the last minute. Has probably vandalized a couple buildings surrounding the university but hasn’t been caught. Goes to raves and the aforementioned frat parties with Angel. Also has a traffic cone in her dorm room for no other reason than just bc.

Vox

Majors in multi media marketing, runs the campus tv and YouTube channel. Definitely the president of a frat that inflates his ego more than it already is. Always at sporting events at the front row with all the frat guys giving everyone the inside scoop and game commentary. Is very pissed that alastor won’t work with him. Treats himself like a campus celebrity even tho ppl could care less and are just trying to get their degree.

Valentino

majors in film and media productions yeah he’s one of those. Always asking if you’ve seen pulp fiction and telling you that you need to watch some random black and white movie that’s only in French. Will definitely invite you over to watch something with you but we all know that’s not the case. Also all his film projects has allot of unnecessary nudity and sex under the guise of artistic expression, even when it’s so not relevant to the plot. Unless it’s a film that he’s making for the university in which case Vox is controlling every aspect of it which in this case is a good thing. Smokes in his dorm room without a care in the world and has really loud inconsiderate sex at any random point in the 24 hour day cycle.

Velvette

Majors in public relations and runs the university’s Instagram account. She’s always walking up to ppl with a lil microphone to ask you to tell us what you’re wearing. Speaking off she always comes to class dressed up (like the international students) no leggings and tennis shoes for her. Also is definitely in a divine nine sorority, and runs their insta too.

Carmilla

She’s a professor for the aerospace engineering dept and shes here bc she got sick of making rockets for Lockheed Martin and reatheon. Hella smart and ppl are baffled that she chose to give up a seven figure job to teach a bunch of college kids but she’s so chill abt it tho.

Zestial

Definitely English lit professor, makes you read the books no one’s heard of and not the classics. Always brings his own open regular coffee mug from his house to sip his tea from instead of a thermos, everyone asks how he doesn’t spill it on his ride to work. Also just straight up has an electric kettle in his office so he can have tea whenever he wants. Takes turns with carmilla eating lunch in each other’s offices.

Rosie

Studies agriculture sciences and food processing. Will probably run a slaughter house when she’s done with her degree. Hangs out with Alastor in his radio booth from time to time just to gossip about whatever drama is going around lately. Wears long skirts and a tote bag all the time. Is always sweet to Charlie and Emily, also loathes Vox just as much as Alastor she just finds him annoying.

Lucifer

Is probably a religion professor that’s not religious at all and is super laid back in his class like one easy discussion board post a week. The kinda guy to be like “it’s so nice out let’s have class outside today guys” or “if I make this shot ur all getting extra credit on the quiz this week”.

Adam

Definitely majors in finance and is a frat boy. And his band plays at all the said frat parties. Is very insufferable to talk to at parties will try tell you how crypto is the currency of the future and how wolf of Wall Street is his favorite movie. Has a Saturdays are for the boys flag in his room and navy blue sheets. Oh did I mention he vapes he definitely vapes those Mike Tyson ones that taste awful and look like bricks yeah those. Always gets drunk at the tailgate way before the game is even started.

Lute

Yeah she’s in premed and wants everyone to know she’s better than you bc of it. Everyone else’s major is easy compared to hers so don’t you dare complain about all your assignments in her vicinity. She’s basically made it her whole identity like she’s in the premed honors society, future doctors of America. Types her notes on her laptop and then rewrites them with all her gel pens and fancy highlighters, like thee be so colorfull and pretty then the title would be something like blood clots. Still friends with Adam bc they went to the same highschool together and always helping him with his homework in turn he gets her into the tailgate tents and frat parties so she always gets free alcohol.

Emily

Majors in Elementary education and looks like it too, with the Stanley cup, James Avery charm bracelet, and all. She also takes super pretty notes but she does them in class which is super power all in itself, like her desk is scattered with gel pens and highlighters of every color and swears by her bullet journal. She also feeds the cats on campus with Charlie and runs the arts and crafts club on campus where they always host events like tote bag painting in the grass area of the university. Also doesn’t drink bc she’s not twenty one yet even tho she’s in college and definitely won’t smoke even tho most of the ppl that show up to her events are total potheads

Sera

She’s like the university president who doesn’t actually GAF abt the students and just fund’s athletics and raises tuition every year under miscellaneous fees. She tries to come off as supportive when she’s out in public but no one’s buying it.

Crystal Fairies (good god)

Soooo in the battle between plans (a doodle for Treasure Seekers and the review for Legend of the Maze) and pure impulse (a deranged rant explaining why Crystal Fairies is bad)

Plans won wait a minute wth--

Well uh this is awkward :D

So Crystal Fairies. I've mentioned it once or twice on this blog. Specifically my crippling disappointment/hatred (? hate's a bit strong but dislike is too mild) towards it. You wanna watch me rant about why it's so painfully mid for thirty-ish minutes? You've come to the right place :D if you wanna peep the insanity yourself (despite my recommendation against it), here's an Archive copy for the mid-ness. Now without further ado, feel free to proceed below the cut to peep my insanity :D

When the book first came out on shelves and I picked it up out of curiosity, this is the first thing I saw on the back of the book:

-

Where have all the crystals gone?

The Thea Sisters are about to head off on their separate family vacations when they receive a call from Will Mystery. Once again, there is trouble in one of the imaginary kingdoms! A crack has been discovered in a map in the Hall of Roses.

The mouselets head to the Crystal Kingdom, where a dragon has been wreaking havoc all over the land. He has been turning all of the precious gems into stone and leaving a path of destruction wherever he goes. Can the sisters figure out why the dragon is destroying the Crystal Kingdom and stop him before it's too late?

-

Cool, right? I'm not gonna lie, that summary hits very hard. It slaps, even. Therefore I bought it and read it for myself.

That was truly the choice ever :D I don't regret it (my collector's ass would've regretted not buying it), but it was truly the choice ever :D

I crunched the entire thing in one sitting, and when I finished, I remember 2018!me said/thought, "that's it?"

It's... very underwhelming as a book. Like, underwhelming enough that it's the closest equivalent I have to my Malaysian friends' vitriol towards Rainforest Rescue (or rather, MIDforest MIDscue)(no it wasn't racist or stereotypical, it was just so painfully culturally mid/plain/generic/basic it pissed them off lmao). It's painfully underwhelming, and when you think about the potential and what we could've gotten from it, it would probably piss you off even more :D

An old 2018 post has described the illustrations as "like the DM has had it with the entire thing", but I'd like to argue that the entire book campaign feels like the writer (or DM in this Dungeons and Dragons analogy) ran outa ideas and slapped random stuff together with a rough approximation of assistance from a geology book to make some semblance of a coherent story.

As for the story, that's what the next section is gonna attempt to summarize without dissolving into spite :D

So finals just wrapped up and the girls are ready to go on vacay, when Will calls them through Thea's Seven Roses Unit cell (which she has in the student lounge the girls are in for some reason) to ask for help. Something something, I guess the girls weren't far enough into their vacay plans for this to be an issue because they canceled their flights and stuff almost immediately to get themselves airdropped to Antarctica for a new mission. (Wondering how that works for Violet tho, she was about to go to Europe to ride the Orient Express with her fam--)

What's the situation, you may ask? Well, the Crystal Kingdom's map in the Hall of Seven Roses looks like someone chucked a rock into it, which means shnit's going down :D and the Crystal Kingdom has sent their own SOS to the Unit in the form of a glowy opal that uses colors ✨ to portray its message.

The opal's red and faded so obviously it means things are doing really bad over there. This makes my color theory newbie ass die inside :D

Turns out the Crystal Kingdom (take a shot every time I force myself to type it out /j) is the fantasy world the SRU's database has the least intel about. As clearly evidenced by this sprawling data screen.

Okay fine there are no photos but like, this is still a lot. A lot of info that you don't really need to remember :D

The girls hop on the Magic Schoolbus TARDIS Crystal Elevator and head into the Crystal Kingdom. Their first stop? This island in the middle of bumf%$k nowhere :D

After a bit of trying and failing to roll a Perception and Investigation skill check (and a buncha smol fish T-posing to serve as an invisible barrier at the corners of the world), the squad mopes around a bit until they meet this blue fish that tells them that Joystone Castle is expecting them :0! Soon, he starts leading them down this invisible Wavy Path hidden just under the waves of the Sapphire Sea and leads to the mainland, along the way noting the strong current leading to the Stone of the Deep, a beeg magic gemstone that creates this maelstrom that wrecks things that get close to it but is also feared respectfully as some sort of creator-destroyer force of nature-- oh Violet just popped her nat1

Yeah Vi straight-up falls into the water and ends up being dragged into the current and the girls can't go and get her because duh, that's like swimming into a riptide, they ain't doing that. So the blue fish hurries off to get some help, Will gets impatient after a few minutes and dives in, instantly regrets it but is saved by the Current Carnelians (the only fish in the kingdom that can swim in that current), and soon they ratgrab Violet out of the maelstrom. Great start to the campaign :D

Anyway so first stop is the Emerald Forest, filled with some generic fae ranger McGees-- Iiiii mean Emerald Forest fairies who lead the squad in the direction of Joystone Castle while discussing the current situation. Apparently there's been a dragon flying around causing shenanigans and turning precious gems into stone with his fire, and Queen Tourmaline's been Sleeping Beauty-ed, and so far nothing has been able to wake her up. Speaking of the dragon :D

The dragon's in the east side of the forest wreckin' shnit up and turning trees into stone with fire, and the girls suggest capturing it. Capturing a fire-breathing behemoth with a trap made of flammable tree branches, with the bait being this effervescent emerald from one of the fairies that moisturizes your skin and gives it that glow to reveal your inner beauty-- (/j)

Anyway so that goes about as well as a Grass-type Pokemon trainer challenging a Fire-type gym, and one of the fairies gets KOed from it. Don't worry, she got better. After.... whatever the hell this is.

Moving on, the girls get some directions to the next stop, hear some cues and clues that the dragon "may not be as evil as he seems ✨" before being warned about the Narcissus crystals, or the Rocky Crystal Path. Oh and something about a Blue Topaz and a Lapis Falls or wutever

Anyway so the girls go to the Narcissus crystals, carefully eye Colette-- Vi why did you pop your nat1 again you already did that the first time and you're not even the ones the girls are concerned about for this bit-- make the dumb decision of putting Colette at the back of their line without anyone keeping an eye on her, and thus Colette gets Narcissus-ed and ends up straying from the path. While doing that, Colette bumps into this crazy crystal castle and this knight named Petrus. They strike up a bit of a conversation, Petrus mentions how his knight club (the Knights of the Crystal Rock) are holding down the fort in their area but weren't able to beat the dragon's ass, and then he offers to bring Colette back to the others. Also something about the dragon looking for something--

Meanwhile back with the other girls, everything is in shambles. The girls are frantic, Nicky is distraught because she was right in front of Colette (instead of behind her so I say it's sTILL kinda her fault--), but Colette strolls back over with Petrus's help and everything is fine yippee onto the Blue Topaz

The Blue Topaz has this golden needle up top that works on "no u" rules: you go one way, the needle points the opposite way. That puzzle is dealt with real quick with the help of some seabords flying overhead and onto the Lapis Falls.

The Lapis Falls has the guardian fairies guarding the secret entrance to Joystone Castle, but their gimmick is that they bathe in the falls everyday to stop themselves from "tarnishing", at the cost of losing their memories. The girls deal with that real quick with the glowy opal, and they are soon boated off to the castle's underground entrance at the... Semiprecious Stones Spring.

(You're gonna notice a pattern here, and that pattern is the names being specifically designed to give any dungeon master and fantasy writer a brain aneurysm.)

They pop into the castle, the castle staff welcome them in and explain the whole situation: apparently the dragon's been destroying enough shnit that he's made a whole-ass new biome in the kingdom, the Stone Desert, which has stretched all the way up against the castle's Quartz Wall. As for Tourmaline, none of the wise men from all over the kingdom could figure out a way to wake her up, and the castle staff just found her Peter-Griffined on the throne room floor with her fancy ruby bracelet turned to stone and the center stone of her royal scepter smashed to pieces. Said center stone is an amber "made of pure sunlight", by the way.

The girls peep them clues and think that the dragon must've been there, but uh he too beeg, how the hell did he get into the throne room and out without causing any damage? Anyway so everyone's very lost on what to do-- there's a dragon flying around destroying things and gaining power in its destruction, and the monarch of the kingdom is Peter-Griffined in bed. What do?

Look into a possible solution to wa consult Google.

There is this wise fairy named Amethyst who lives in Light Mountain (it's a big-ass hill of glowing gems) and has this giant Himalayan salt lamp-lookin' ass gem called the Query Crystal, which is basically magical Google, if you could only look up one thing once and you can't use it again. The group is sent out to go to Light Mountain and ask to consult Amethyst's Google Search crystal for advice on the situation.

Oh and if you're wondering why the castle staff couldn't go themselves, every single creature in the Crystal Kingdom has this weird gimmick where they can't leave the place they "guard" or reside in. Like I dunno, I guess they're magically condemned to the life of a couch potato. How did this kingdom survive and drive off an invasion war again--

Also this is the map of the Crystal Kingdom. Beautiful, isn't it? Cartographers in the chat, are your eyes bleeding?

The squad moves out, plays some hopscotch on a Citrine River that seems to be the only line of defense between the girls and Light Mountain, climb Light Mountain without much of a struggle, and consult Google with six questions, one for each person.

Google Search gives its answers, which are:

The dragon's name is Goldfire named after his golden scales (Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way soundin' ass) and he's under a spell from an evil wizard

Goldfire's looking for a specific gemstone and will not stop hyperfixating until he gets it

Tourmaline's under a spell from the same wizard, and the only thing that can remedy this is the Sweet Awakening Gem

DEAL WITH THE DRAGON FIRST YOU NIMRODS--

You wanna protecc but not attacc? Go to Microsoft Bing the Ancient Amber Tree, it's where the amber made of sunlight is from

You really wanna go to the Ancient Amber Tree in the Eternal Woods to get this goss my guy it's the only place you can get goss this juicy

So the girls head on over down the Night Gems Path to go down this secret tunnel, and they find the Eternal Woods. Which is obviously an enchanted woods with some wack enchanted trees that immediately ratgrab the entire squad, with this GIF to illustrate somewhat accurately what that looked like.

A Golden Elf shows up tho to amend the situation and tells the trees to put the rats down, bad tree

After that little misadventure, the girls are taken to the Golden Elves' ruler Lord Arbor, who turns out to be a (respectful) Tourmaline simp and drops his whole "the Ancient Amber Tree is very sacred I can't let you near it" shtick the moment he hears about Tourmaline's coma, to help the girls deal with the situation and stop the dragon and wake up the queen.

Bing does get some answers that Google didn't: turns out the Sunlight Amber (the royal scepter's centerpiece, remember?) was part of a pair: the Sunlight Amber and the Star Amber (no not Starlight Amber, just Star Amber. Are you crying yet?). These two are very unique... becaaaauuussseee an evil wizard trapped a whole-ass fairy in one of them :D her name is Esmeralda and she's stuck in the Star Amber.

Esmeralda is no ordinary fairy, tho. See, her fiance is Diamond, the Lancelot of the Knights of the Crystal Rock and the right hand of the previous monarch Eliodoro. This evil wizard guy managed to get to him, and Diamond was transformed into the dragon Goldfire and was trapped in the Sunlight Amber. The wizard then set it so the dragon would bust out of his gemstone prison in 200 full moons (approximately 16.1697 years/16 years and 2 days) to wreak havoc on the Crystal Kingdom, slapped it onto a pretty scepter, and gave it to the king while disguised; and the king liked it so much that he basically turned it into part of the royal regalia. And there may or may not be something along the lines of a corruptive influence that made Goldfire do the stuff he did. Maybe. (You're gonna see why I'm unsure later)

Either way, sixteen years after being trapped, Goldfire is now out and searching for the Star Amber so he can reunite with his fiance. He was last seen flying over the Desert of Rocks and Dust, a horribly dangerous place one does not simply go to without a good reason for doing so; so the girls are given a ride to go there. Oh and Will gets loaned this gold dagger that kinda works on... Caliburn/Excalibur? Mjolnir? rules?? It's totally OP and can cut through anything, but you can only use its power by being a big brave boi doing big brave boi things that would airdrop you into the Lawful Good alignment in an instant.

Literally the moment they land in the desert and their rides leave, a sandstorm scoops them up and plops them back down in another spot of the desert: an obsidian Orbeez pool pebble pit that acts like a denser ball pit. Will uses his backpack for the first time in the entire series and pulls out a rope, lassoes a nearby boulder, and gets the group out of the pebble pit.

Except the boulder he used to anchor himself and the girls to get them out was actually a Stone Troll.

The place they drop at is the Stone Trolls' pad actually, and they don't like intruders, sooooooooooooo the squad got captured and taken to their prison in the Stone Circles. (What is this, Stonehenge?)

In the prison, they meet this lil' leprechaun man named Piro, who's been there for uh, I have no idea, and he's given up trying to escape at that point because of how unbreakable these trolls made their damn prison for just in case an intruder strolls up to their pad.

Anyway Piro gives them the goss about the Dark Fairies, these morally ambiguous (cOUGH COUGH THEY'RETOTALLYNOTEVIL) girlypops who wrote too much in their diaries about just how annoying and perfect and beautiful and so damn nice and perfect the good girl fairies are that it turned them evil-ish. Apparently they just captured a dragon with gold scales, and one thing to note about the Dark Fairies is that they and the Stone Trolls feud like they're from Mean Girls.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

So the squad plus Piro come up with a plan: they're gonna pull a prank on the Dark Fairies by casually releasing their most recent catch. Piro casually chats with the troll wardens about the Dark Fairies' recent victory and suggests the idea of the prank to them, and the Stone Trolls respond by being like "okay we're gonna escort you to the Dark Caves to pull off this prank", and take them to the Dark Caves, the Dark Fairies' pad. Then they convince the trolls to hide and let them take care of the prank so they can escape their operation isn't busted right away. The trolls surprisingly comply knowing that they can trust the Dark Fairies to absolutely lose their shnit at this prank, and Piro takes that moment to escape and go back home because y'know, he's bound to his hometown for some reason.

The squad stealth missions their way into the heart of the winding caves and find Goldfire bound in thick iron cables that he can't melt or bite or claw through so he's just left to ">:[" about it. He's initially very "I DON'T NEED NO HELP DAMMIT >:[", but the girls manage to talk him into letting them help after revealing that they know about Esmeralda and the Star Amber. Turns out Goldfire is lucid and sentient, and he retains his memories as Diamond? Why does he have the name Goldfire in the first place? He's even surprised that they know his name Goldfire?? Why does he have the name in the first place??? Why was he destroying the Crystal Kingdom in the first place when he was awake and aware of what's going on and had control over what he was doing????

clears throat ANYWAY the squad needs to get Goldfire out without the Dark Fairies stepping in and potentially capturing the squad too, so the plan is Nicky, Pam and Colette aggro the three Dark Fairies to kite them around their own caves; while Paulina, Violet and Will stick around to put a dent into Goldfire's restraints. Will takes a minute or two to figure out how to use the gold dagger, which he does figure out eventually. Colette, Pam and Nicky do end up getting captured (fr being able to fly as a fairy in general is busted in field coverage </3 /j), but Will manages to get the job done in time for Goldfire to fully bust out. The Dark Fairies lose their shnit, try and fail to re-restrain him, and realize that there're three more rats in their caves that they gotta deal with.

Violet I swear to god these fairies literally have obsidian spears and flails this is a nat1 you can't afford to roll-- Will do something please Vi's about to dieded boi-- Will accidentally trips and drops the gold dagger by accident.

Which turns out to be a good thing, because the moment the Dark Fairies peep the gold dagger, they immediately back down and pledge neutrality (or allegiance, whichever you prefer). Turns out that in Crystal Kingdom politics, Arbor is the gigachad-est of gigachads, and the gold dagger is like, a call card of his almost, so the Dark Fairies are not gonna be messing around with an ally of Arbor that managed to get his gold dagger. The fairies allow them to leave with Goldfire, and the squad flies out on Goldfire's back, yippee!

Goldfire flies the squad over to this white desert where this Circle of Intense Light can supposedly break any and every curse that anyone happens to be unfortunately saddled with. Why didn't he go there right away? Well, he was looking for the Star Amber, where Esmeralda is.

Speaking of which, he has the amber with him. He found it in the Swamp of Forgotten Dreams, the most dangerous and evil place in all of the Crystal Kingdom, and was actually on his way to the Circle when he got dragon-ratgrabbed by the Dark Fairies. Soooooooo he goes into the circle of light with a bit of emotional pep talk from Paulina, and out of the circle emerge Diamond and Esmeralda, uncursed and put back into their normal forms, YIPPEEEEE

So that's the dragon dealt with. Seems like we're all done here, right?

NOPE WE STILL GOTTA GET THAT SWEET AWAKENING GEM FOR THE QUEEN

Now here's the part of the book called "power of friendship incarnate exposed", where Esmeralda proves that she is literally the most overpowered character in the entire series. Need to go to the Jade Jungle and consult the gem's guardian Fang the massive wolf? No worries, Esmeralda actually met him as a smol child and they became close friends! Need to do a trial to prove themselves where they have to go into the Ruby Caves' labyrinth to borrow the fabled Blood Ruby from the Ruby Fairies living in the caves? Don't sweat it, the shy Ruby Fairy they meet and Esmeralda actually have some history together, and the fairy (her name is Rubix btw) decides to help the squad through the labyrinth and get the Blood Ruby to go! Complete with a free ride back to the Jade Jungle! How nice!!

Yeah Esmeralda let them breeze through this last bit of plot.

As for Diamond, man was lowkey angsting about the destruction he caused as Goldfire, and Nicky, Pam and Violet reassure him that it wasn't entirely his fault and he can make things right now.

By climbing a beeg shiny tree to collect an Alabaster Fruit for their trial. Cool redemption arc Diamond, you've got this 👍

The squad plus the lovebirds go back to Fang, and Fang allows them to enter the Jade Village, where the Jade Fairies and their queen Selenite is vibing with the Sweet Awakening Gem. They trade their 1x Alabaster Fruit and 1x Blood Ruby for the 1x Sweet Awakening Gem, and they head on back to Joystone to wake the queen up. The Joystone fairies have a happi reunion with Esmeralda, Diamond is still a little bit ":(" about the whole destruction thing

SO WHY DID HE DESTROY THAT STUFF IN THE FIRST PLA--

Tourmaline wakes up like "what year is it", she gets spedrun through the like, week she was eeping, and after she personally thanks the SRU squad for coming in clutch.

And then cool castle party the squad is invited to yay-- wait how the hell are so many people here from so many different corners of the kingdom didn't you just say that you can't leave your hometowns? Is Joystone the exception here is there something that keeps them perfectly fine at Joystone despite being so far from their homes what the hell is this why aren't you explaining anything book I NEED ANSWERS--

Tourmaline and Arbor get to give the shippers something to raise an eyebrow at, the girls have a good time, and the next day they gotta go home. They get a ride back to the crystal elevator, elevator back to the SRU HQ, get surprised by the little photo album the fairies snuck into Will's bag, and then the girls get a ride home, the end.

Wait what about their vacations is Vi still gonna go to Europe to see her parents--

And that's the book. Oh my god where do I begin :D

Now for the rest of this review I'm gonna be addressing the Crystal Kingdom as Cristallia/Crystallia, the world's original Italian name because if you've seen my Geronimo Stilton 101 guide, you would notice that even in that slideshow where I tried to be as objective as possible, I refused to label the world as "Crystal Kingdom" because of how mid it is in comparison -m-

Anyway so this book has so many plot holes that an old road full of potholes looks pristine in comparison.

First of all, the question I asked at the end of the summary. In the book's second chapter, Vi tells her parents something like "hey uh something came up you might end up having to start without me". Then when she gets back to Whale Island, it's like... they just forgor about the summer vacay thing. They were only in Crystallia for like three days and that's in Crystallia time-- we dunno if time in Crystallia runs at the same pace as the real world's time, so like we can just play by Narnia rules and it'd be perfectly fine! They kinda left out how fantasy-to-reality times work anyway, so they're free to just.... do whatever the hell they want with it! It would've been fine! I bet Crystallia has even less restrictions for its timekeeping since it's not magically attached to a real-world country like Erin and Minwa.

Second, for a world about crystals or gemstones, gemstone and crystal lore are very... underutilized in this one. They mentioned this world dabbles in gemstones, stones, and metallurgy, and those names you saw in the summary are the best they could do?? Yeah there is lore stuff for the Stone of the Deep and the Effervescent Emeralds and the Semiprecious Stones Spring and the Amber Twins and Arbor's dagger, but it's all just a buncha nothing. Just stuff about the gem being [insert thing]'s purest essence, which is... eh.

What does that mean? We never find out :D

Then there's....... everything about the plot. Oh my god.

For one, I dunno if this falls under nitpick or not, but the glowy opal or the "light-emitting opal" as it's officially called is.... I don't like how it's used or portrayed here :D For one, why the hell does red immediately mean "WEEWOOWEEWOOWEEWOOWEEWOO" and having it so its faded immediately makes it "WEEWOOWEEWOOWEEWOO"? It's like saying that blue symbolizes errrrhhhhh the ocean and nothing else. Color versatility, people. Colors can mean different things and even have multiple meanings in the same place. Also it's just used as an excuse for the group to have an actual Crystallia infodump at the start, and boy is it the infodump ever.

The origin of the opal is weird, too-- we know that the opal is from Joystone, but how did it end up in the SRU? The SRU barely knows jackshnit about Crystallia, so it couldn't have been a Land of Flowers situation where both parties know each other and are on good terms. The implication is Crystallia's citizens found the crystal elevator and plopped the gemstone in there to send to the SRU, but how did the citizens find it in the first place? How did they know that the elevator was more than just a weird pavilion in the middle of nowhere? What exactly made them trust the SRU despite not knowing anything about them (presumably, the SRU doesn't know much about Crystallia so it's reasonable to assume vice versa)? Were they expecting someone to answer their call for help? How did they get the opal to the damn elevator in the first place with the whole citizens-being-bound-to-their-guard-posts situation? Did they just pass it along all the way to the elevator? If they did, how did that damn blue fish along the Wavy Path finish the chain and put the gem in the elevator??? Why is this world being so trusting of strangers? Aren't they just recovering from a war?

Then there's the meat of the whole thing: the perpetual fetch quest. The girls are literally just... being Crystallia's errand girls. Joystone's fairies couldn't leave Joystone because of the (INCREDIBLY STUPID) bound-to-their-posts thing, so the girls walk on over to consult magical Google Search for them. Then Google search sends them on more fetch quest stuff-- from going to the Eternal Woods for the extra goss, to looking for Goldfire, to the entire last act of the book, which was literally a fetch quest arc. In the wise words of Alice Liddell from American McGee's Alice: Madness Returns,

"Everyone here has an excuse for doing nothing."

(RIP to Alice Asylum btw, my condolences to those in the fanbase)

I don't like the Query Crystal and the Ancient Amber Tree's gimmick in this story-- this is a mystery-solving plot and you're telling me that your solution to the entire plot is consulting magical Google??? For shame, they didn't even make things vague enough to have a bit of unresolved mystery shenanigans like with the Blue Pearl from Treasure of the Sea -m-

It feels like an excuse to send the girls on their way to where the mystery is-- kinda like the massive plot hooks dungeon masters give to their players-- but bro, this ain't a DND campaign, and we readers like to think that we're not stupid :/

Then there's the obligatory puking screaming and crying at friendship prophet moment when... this

Something something the fairies explained to the girls that that's what their effervescent emeralds are capable of, insert Colette making a remark about the Power of Friendship eugh

Well, at least it's not Violet.

Thinking about it more and come to think of it, this entire plot hinges on plot contrivances. A bajillion plot contrivances.

There just so happens to be a maelstrom Vi falls into that just so happens to have one species of fish that can swim in that super-dangerous maelstrom. There just so happens to be 3(637125) gemstones that have a thing for purity or have some pointless lore to them. There just so happens to be a magical gimmick in the world that conveniently prevents the fairies from solving their problems themselves by consulting magic Google. There just so happens to be a magical Google that exists for some reason-- two of them, actually! There just so happens to be a race of evil-coded fairies that captured the dragon so the girls could find him, and a character that just so happens to be friends with everyone.

You prolly get the picture at this point, the entire plot hinges on plot contrivances that are just way too convenient.

There're probably a lotta other things about the plot that my running-on-6-hours-of-sleep ass forgor to mention, but I think I covered most of the bases I wanted to cover sooooooo there you go gwuh

Might make addendums if I wanna add more, but all in all, Crystal Fairies is wasted potential at its finest, and that pisses me off :D

Like c'mon, this is a fantasy world who dealt with a war in their backstory! You'd think they could've leaned into that more or at least hearkened back to it a little more if they were going to reveal it in the briefing before the girls actually get into the adventure itself!! Maybe a little more lore into the evil wizard who attempted to conquer Crystallia or something!!

But nah, they're just throwaway details that never become relevant in the actual story :/

My spite senses are going off so hard with this one istg--

[gunnrblze]

Hello, hope you’re doing alright! I’m back with Ghosts related song recs part 4 lol.

You said you were up for some loud songs last time, so loud it is! Plus one calm song to salvage your ears lmfao. Watch you’re volume tho because I’ve killed my hearing one too many times with some of these. (Also excuse the mass amount of Cane Hill. I think they do loud music very well 😔)

(The New) Jesus - Cane Hill: If there ever was a song that is the epitome of Fed Rorke, this is easily one of the top contenders for me. You can’t tell me that man doesn’t love to play God. His ass was smug the entire game.

Kill Me - Cane Hill: this one is very Hesh coded to me. He was already pissed after Elias’s death. The dude must’ve been FERAL after the beach. Idk this song very much feels like blind rage to me, I think it’s fitting.

Screwtape - Cane Hill: Kick our beloved freak. What can I say, this song is a little screwy. (Idk how else to put it help.) I think it matches him well. I don’t think he’s this insane 100% of the time but he has his moments. A little savior complex, mayhaps?

Eyeless - SlipKnot: FED LOGAN, NO?? The feds fucked this poor man up for sure, he’s definitely a little crazy after the pit. Also the resentment towards a father figure is *chef’s kiss*. I definitely think Logan would hold some resentment towards his family/the Ghosts once he’s free. The classic “why didn’t you save me?” complex.

Gods - Sleep Token: I kinda got some Keegan vibes from this? Not too sure so lmk what you think if you’d like. He’s pretty calm and collected but he has his beserker moments—Ajax’s death, to name one. I imagine he must feel very strung out sometimes, and that frustration turns to anger: “my fucking form is but a wreck beneath them.”

There’s a Girl in the Corner - The Twilight Sad: here’s the calmer song lol. You said you liked synth and these guys use it a lot in their music. This song also gives me Keegan vibes, specifically after SV. The “she’s not coming back from that”, specifically. That op definitely killed a part of who he was.

Well, that’s all from me! I hope you like them. As always, I’m very curious to hear your opinions or suggestions of your own! Sorry for all the recs lately, I have so many 😟, but feel free to tell me to shut up lmao. I get it. Either way, have a good one. :)

— Cold blooded anon

Also!!! I apologize if this got sent twice. My WiFi absolutely offed itself in the middle of writing the first one, so I had to retype EVERYTHING. I don’t actually know if it sent?

Hello my dear, I hope you’re well too! Thank you for more recs, I’m being fed so well by you lol. I loved these and have many thoughts once again;

(The New) Jesus- godddd im obsessed with this+Fed Rorke, ur a genius. “Welcome to Genesis, go see the miracles now. I’ll be your exodus so you can tell all the others God was found” HELLO? The ex Christian in me is having many thoughts lmao. He definitely loves the power trip of being the Feds commander

Kill Me- I fw this bad. Hesh was definitely feral post beach and I think this perfectly captures how earth shatteringly enraged he’d be, and directed mostly at Rorke? Yeowch

Screwtape- KICK my freaky boy, I love this for him. I feel like when he gets upset it’d be very volatile/emotional like this. This band almost reminds me of Slipknot a bit, I really like them :))

Eyeless- well speaking of Slipknot I love this song hehe, smiled when I saw it cus it reminds me of my own brother lol. This definitely fits the genuine insanity Logan would feel from the pit. “I am my father’s son cause he’s a phantom, a mystery, and that leaves me nothing” this is KILLING me actually. He (and Hesh) were essentially thrusted into their father’s world (literally a phantom/ghost, hello), and all the mystery surrounding his legacy, all the unanswered questions they must have EEK. Rorkes “why won’t Elias save me” in the pit would be Logan’s “why won’t Hesh save me” in the pit, it’s perfectttt

Gods- oh I loveee this for Keegan, my poor traumatized man. His calm cool collected shit definitely gets challenged, even just looking for Ajax during that mission he was loosing it and I think this fits him

There’s a girl in the corner- WEEPING this feels like a Keegan song too. Love the synth and the vibe. If he was actually as young as his canon age suggests (which feels impossible to be 16/17 during SV but I digress lol) there’s no way he left with all the parts of himself he came with.

Def don’t shut up or apologize for all the recs!! I love and appreciate these so much, send as many as you want hehe. Also I did get the first one but i got interrupted with something right in the middle of listening to all of these earlier and then forgot ���

[fauxspirited]

honestly i’m just venting so feel free to ~ignore and keep scrolling~

i feel like everything i’ve texted to my brother lately has him on defensive mode, or he’s more irritable and on attack mode all the time.

like a month or so ago, he called me during work hours to say my sister in law is at costco and i need to go on the account and switch over my membership to her so she can pay. first off, i don’t know if this is even a thing and second, i was working. and he immediately jumped to the conclusion that i was unwilling to help and started saying he’s going to take his credit card off the costco membership and im on my own so that this never happens again.

and that obviously pissed me off.

then a few weeks later, i got an email saying someone from 3 towns over logged into my disney+. my brother is only in the next town over so i texted him and asked if he signed into disney+ bc i got this notification. instead of just saying yes, he says he did but that it’s his son’s bedtime anyway so i can have it back (??!?). i’m like, i am not even using it, im literally just asking you so i know i didn’t get fucking hacked.

today was a smol one but it pissed me off too cus this has just been accumulating. but he texted me asking when we (bf&i) were free to hang (this is a whole other story tho cus he’s been saying some SHIT about my man without any reason). his wifey had just posted in a group chat stating that they have a busy weekend or two; so maybe it was my fault for not being clearer but i said “seems like August is busy for the both of us! but let’s see. you and SIL are free during the week generally?”

to which he responds “okie dokie. holler when ur free i guess”

like …. i can guess that he thought i only referred to my man and i when i said “both of us” but then he just ignored my question lol. like why do i bother.

😥 and 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 for Ashara

😥 SAD BUT RELIEVED FACE — is your oc prone to getting stressed out, or is it easy for them to keep their cool?

ashara's funny in that she gets pissed off quite easily over small inconsequential things, but when the going gets tough and she's facing real problems she has pretty remarkable emotional regulation and can keep composed through pretty much anything. she believes in leading by example mostly, and tries to project an aura of strength and unflinching control in order to inspire morale in her people and make them feel.... idk. safer! more secure. like they can depend on her. which they can.

but ofc if some marquis decides to cancel a meeting on her last minute or a shipment of flour has been stolen by scavengers on the road, all that goes out the window and shes in a bad mood for the next 3 hours lol

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 FAMILY WITH MOTHER, FATHER, SON AND DAUGHTER — how many people are in your oc's immediate family? how many people are in your oc's extended family? do they have aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, etc? who in their family are they closest with? are they close with their birth family, or do they have a found family?

ashara has a pretty wild family tree + history which i talked about a bit in a seperate answer, but long story short she has a LOT of family lore, tho currently the only surviving dhavise descendants are her, her sister mithra, and her nephew samahl

quick namedrops:

mithra is her twin sister, another mage, tho she rejected her abilities because she believes its ultimately more trouble than its worth. she prefers archery and has trained with the clan's hunters since early teens.

she also has a 5 year old son, ie ashara's nephew samahl (hard launch of that name i just decided on the spot lol). he's a very sweet inquisitive boy who ashara absolutely dotes on. mithra struggles with motherhood to the point where it's a frequent source of fights between them, because ashara sees mithra's relationship with her son as a mirror for THEIR relationship with their late mother. aka, bad and neglectful lol. anyways just realized he'll be 17 in datv :( cries and dies

numina dhavise was ashara's aforementioned mother. ashara's father arlan was a free marcher circle apprentice who'd been taken in by the clan after escaping the templars. the two quickly fell in love, conceiving ashara and mithra. arlan disappeared shortly after with no clue as to what happened and numina was never quite herself afterwards. she remained an adept healer for the clan, but ended up alienating herself quite a bit due to frequently resorting to blood magic in the hopes it might help her locate arlan. it never did, though her relationship with her children suffered in the attempt. it culminated in her death after the clan encountered nearby templars who were escorting an enchanter, and numina panicked. her blood magic went wrong for the first time in 13 years and she became a despair abomination, icing out half the camp and inflicting frostbite on several other members of the clan.

lastly, arlan is ashara's absent father lol. she and mithra found out years after numina's death that he had turned himself back into the circle of magi for a few reasons, mainly because he learnt what happens when dalish clans have too many mages and wanted to do right by his family. he'd been forced to complete his harrowing shortly afterwards and failed, becoming tranquil. i like to think when ashara became inquisitor she was able to keep better tabs on him and insure he was safe during the mage/templar conflict and all that followed afterwards.

so yeah. lots to unpack within ashara's family. everything in ashara's character really does come back to her family and the people in it, and although its mostly a sad story she is very much a family oriented person and wants to provide/protect them (she wants to protect everybody, really). if datv doesnt end in tragedy id love to end her story with her having her own little family and ending the cycle of pain which has kind of followed them around for generations.

Take Your Take: Chapter 3

Francisco Morales x Fem!oc (Jana Fernandez)

Chapter 2: Chapter 4

Take Your Time Masterlist

Chapter Summary: Frankie tries to distance himself from everyone he loves, thinking they ae better off without him. Luckily, his friends won't back down that easily.

Warnings: Mentions of self harm LOTS OF TALK OF DRINKING, ADDICTION. not suicidal ideation but like. Mentioning drinking oneself to death, mentions of suicide, giving up, etc. Food and eating, insomnia, childhood neglect. Benny does not handle things the best, says some shitty things, addict shaming etc. Jana may not be handling things great either. The things Benny says and things Frankie thinks about himself are not my thoughts on addiction at all, but they were things I was thinking when my drinking was really bad. Let me know if I missed something.

*********

Group chat started with Benny Miller, Will Miller, and Santito Jana Fernandez: Hey, has anyone heard from Frankie lately? Hasn’t answered calls or texts. Benny Miller: Nothing from me, he’s left my messages on seen tho, still alive. Will Miller: Nothing here. He supposed to be watching chiquita? Jana Fernandez: Yeah, Jacob’s not answering my calls either, I’m already late for work. Will Miller: Head over, I’ll meet you there and take her. Jana Fernandez: Thank you Will, I really appreciate it.

Will Miller: Be there in 10. Benny Miller: I’ll go to Frank’s and check on him. Will Miller: Pope, you gonna keep lurking? Santito: Yes. Jana Fernandez: You can’t still be mad. Benny Miller: When it’s about Laci, he absolutely can. Santito: Jan Jan aren’t you supposed to be driving? Jana Fernandez: Hands free technology, fucko Benny Miller: 👁️👄👁️ Benny Miller: You would know that if you weren’t a fucking boomer, Pope. Will Miller: Don’t get involved in their pissing match. Benny Miller: You’re no better, you still have wired earbuds. Jana Fernandez: Will no offense but wtf is wrong with you?

Jana Fernandez: And aren’t you supposed to be driving? Will Miller: Hands free technology, fucker

Will Miller: Wait that was rude

Will Miller: Don’t hold that against me

Benny Miller: It’s fucko, but you tried, boomer Santito laughed at ‘Hands free technology, fucker’ Jana Fernandez: I’m gonna drop kick all of you. Benny Miller: 😢

Jana Fernandez: Not you sweetie

Benny Miller: 😃

Frankie woke up in the afternoon to the smell of booze and pounding on his front door as well as his head, and attempted to simply ignore it until whoever it was went away. He glances at home phone to see the several texts and phone calls from Jana that he painfully ignored. It hurt him to do this to her, knowing she needed him, knowing he was supposed to watch Rosie this weekend, knowing he is letting her down. But this is what he needed to do. Look at him, he’s drinking himself into a coma at 1 pm on a Sunday, he had been drinking since approximately 5:24 PM on Friday when he had walked in the door of his home, and popped open the bottle of whiskey before he even took off his coat. This had been the routine every day this week, as it had become increasingly what he had done over the last 6 months. It was one of the Millers, he presumed. Jana would be shouting at him right, Santi would’ve let himself in. Whoever it is will let themselves in soon enough. All four of them shared security codes and keys to each other’s houses. If it was Pope, he’d have walked in without knocking. Frankie wasn’t sure if Benny figured it out or not, but Frankie knew it was because of them, because of the fact they thought Frankie would overdose or that Ben would asphyxiate on his own vomit in a drunken stupor. They were only given the other two’s info to not make them feel singled out. That was the thing about their group. They were always close, but after Tom died and Frankie and Benny’s problems became much worse, Will and Santi were damn near co-parenting sometimes. Everyone had their rolls. 

Santi was their leader, a fierce protector who was hard to crack but when you got through to him, or when he let you in, you were under strong and watchful eyes. Jana was under that protection, so was Rosie, so was Laci to a fault.. From the minute that boy set eyes on her, his entire focus became protecting her. He was loyal, too. You didn’t just walk away from that, Jana certainly didn’t just because she left Frankie. Even Will’s ex-fiance, Emily, she never quite fit in with them the way Jana or Laci did, she was an extension of Will, and thus when Santi heard her new man hit her, found him and sent him to the ER before Will even had a chance. Of course, that anger would be directed at any man who had hurt women. Santi’s dad had left him very young, leaving him to be raised by a single mom and his older sister, both of whom died while he was in his 30’s. Frankie often thought Santi was trying to pay them back for all they did. Santi was a force to be reckoned with, however, and you did not want to get on his bad side, which Frankie absolutely had done. He crossed multiple lines there. You don’t talk about the girl, you don’t talk about her and sex, and you absolutely do not tarnish her honor by insinuating she was cheating with her best friend. She’d never do that, and Benny could never disrespect Santiago, or her, like that.

Benny was a soldier, but he was never the best at following orders until he came under Santiago. At his core, Benny was a rebel. Growing up, him and Will’s dad beat them, and Ben was the primary target due to his nature, but this never managed to break Benny in. Likewise, as much as the military tried to strip him down, he always remained uniquely Benny. His time between high school and joining the army saw Ben’s wilderness years, not unlike where he was now. After a devastating break up in high school with a boy who Ben never really admitted he was seeing, Benny fell into a bad crowd. Drinking, hard drugs, eating problems and risky relationships, Ben’s addictive personality was in full swing and Will came home on leave, essentially dragging Benny kicking and screaming into the army. Surprisingly, Benny thrived. He cleaned up, got his shit together, and made a good soldier. However, the things Benny saw and did in special ops weighed on him, and it all came to a head when Tom died. That’s what saw Benny at the place he was now; enough money to never work again but still fighting MMA, and fighting in bars every other weekend or so. Benny practically worshiped Santi. In their early years, Benny had a pretty intense crush on him that no one really ever really acknowledged, and although that dissipated, Benny would still follow Santi anywhere. Benny was loyal, and it would take a hell of a lot to get him to abandon Frankie, Benny didn’t abandon friends. Thing was, like Santi, Benny was protective of Laci. He was already likely irritated with Frankie or his comments about Benny and the girl, and Frankie wondered how much more it would take to push him away. You get Ben, you get Santi riled up pretty easily. Laci was very protective of Ben, emotionally as well as physically despite her being more than a foot shorter than him, so you get her too. Thing is, you get Benny, you get Will. And you do not want to get Will. William Miller was their pillar. Santi led them, Santi planned and schemed and created, but Will was the one who kept them corralled. Will was logical, literal and an absolute force of a man who did not put up with bullshit, thus he is the one who kept them focused.. He had spent his entire life trying to keep his younger brother alive, and that wears on a person; it was one hell of a task. Starting as combat medic, Will quickly worked his way through the ranks, his physical strength, bright intelligence, ability to compartmentalize and stay calm making him a natural stand out in the field, and the respect he earned from his team kept him out of trouble. Above all else, Will protected and supported Benny. Since their childhood, deflecting their fathers anger, to their teens, when the only reason Benny didn’t get the shit beat out of him was because he fell under Will’s social umbrella before Benny really hit puberty and his height and good looks came in. When Benny’s eating was bad, when his drinking and drug use got out of hand, down to the field, Will was there. As hesitant as Will was for Benny to join Delta Force, a part of Will knew Benny would get into something, and he was thankful that he could be there to keep an eye on him. Will didn’t take shit. He was the one who got Santi to stop his self sabotage with Laci, and Will would likewise be the hardest one to break loyalty, but it could be done.

Frankie knew he was the mediator. Frankie was protective of his friends to be sure, but not to the point of loss of rationale that would come with the others. Benny and Santi were hot headed, and although Will was generally calm, his anger outbursts could be devastating. No one would hurt Frankie, however, he knew that. So Frankie often found himself between them when arguments bubbled up. Francisco briefly wondered how the dynamic would shift without him, but he knew it would settle, the way things had resettled when Tom died. Just like Tom, Frankie was replaceable.

Benny let himself in.

“Fish, what the fuck.” He said, exasperated. “You left Jana with Rose when she had to work? I know you’re going through something, but that's shitty, you should've called so she could plan for it, or one of us would’ve taken her” He looked genuinely disappointed in Frankie, who was groaning and pulling his blanket over his face. “Will has Rosie right now, if you were wondering”

He was wondering, actually. Ben continued. “What’s all this about? I’m sure you know Santi told us what you said. You know us, we all love to gossip.” Frankie didn’t reply, simply staring off at whatever trashy MTV show was playing in the background. Reaching for the remote and shutting off the TV, Benny hoped to gain Frankie’s attention, but Frankie just watched a black screen.

“C’mon man, you think you can push us away? It’s not going to work.”

Finally, a low mutter from Frankie’s lips, still refusing to look at Benny. “Worked on Pope” Ben rolled his eyes at that. “No, it didn’t. He’s mad at you, but that’s not enough for him to give up on you, you know that damn well. You’ve been friends since, what, elementary school? You’re stuck with him, and stuck with us too.”

No response.

“Come on, try something” Benny motioned Frankie towards him. “I dare you. Nothing you can say that I haven't heard before”

Frankie shrugged, tiredly and drunkenly slurring. “I dunno. You’re gay or something”

Despite his annoyance, Benny did laugh at that. “Yeah, that might’ve worked in 2009, not anymore. Try again.”

Frankie wanted to. He wanted to push Benny far, far away, but the fight… simply wasn’t in him. He was drunk, he was exhausted, he was borderline catatonic at this point, there was nothing else in him except to drink himself to death, or maybe go back to the coke to speed up the process.

But Benny wasn’t one to back down from a challenge. “I don’t understand you, Fish. You’ve been a great dad and now all of a sudden you get sober, and now you’re acting like this? Now all of a sudden you feel like shit?”

What Benny didn’t know is he’s always felt like shit. Before she was born, he felt like shit, but at least him and Jana were on their bullshit together. Then Jana got clean and Frankie toned things down enough for them to decide to keep Rosie when Jana accidentally got pregnant, but he never sobered up, and it fucking killed him. He couldn’t do it when she was born, he couldn’t do it when Fatima, the woman that raised him, Santi’s sister, overdosed heroin, he couldn’t do it when his license was in danger, he couldn’t do it when the choice was between Jana and having a happy family together, or her walking out with their daughter, and he couldn’t do it until a cocaine rager ended him on Jana’s door step in the middle of the night. That night was a catalyst for this. Jana had taken Rosie on a trip to see Jana’s parents, and just as Santi predicted, without Rosie around to watch, Frankie went off the deep end. Jana and Rose weren’t home, as Frank screamed and banged on the door, missing his daughter, but it set of the home security. Jana called Santiago, who, in his never wavering loyalty, came to his rescue, keeping him out of jail and alive.

And here he was, several months later, still battling cravings like all hell. Shouldn’t Rose be enough? Shouldn’t his perfect little baby and her mother be enough to fight for? It shouldn’t be a struggle, it shouldn’t be a choice he was actively making every fucking minuet. 

You are so weak, you are so fucking pathetic.

“Maybe this is what you want, huh?” Ben was unrelenting. “You want to push away the last family you have left, you want to make it so no one comes to your fucking funeral when you drink yourself to death?”

Benny knew he didn’t really have room to talk there, but he was trying to push his buttons, trying to get a reaction. He just needed to get him to fucking talk, and they could figure this out. He wouldn’t leave his friend like this. 

“You had a beautiful girlfriend, and beautiful daughter and none of that was enough for you huh? You just had to throw it all away, and now you’re throwing it away again. You’re lucky enough to be exes with someone you never had to fight over custody with, someone who communicated and never fought with you, you got to see Rosie plenty and still you want to throw it away! And for what? God, you’re not even using, so what’s the point? Are you just done with them? Do they mean nothing to you?” 

Benn could tell this was getting under his skin. Just a little bit more... “Oh that's it, huh, you just don’t care anymore. Fine, Frank, fine, drink yourself to death, overdose, whatever it is you’re planning on doing but know that 15 or 20 years from now, that little baby is going to be grown up, and what she’s not going to care about the fact her dad had some problems, that her dad had an addiction, she’s going to care about the fact that she wasn’t good enough for you to want to be around her”

“SHUT UP BEN!” Frankie was on his feet in a second, shoving Benny harshly before stopping himself from carrying it further.

Benny raised his hands defensively, taking a step back, smiling. “There you are.”

And with that, Frankie knew he had been played. Covering his face in his hands, he sat back down and hung his head low. “What do you want, Ben.”

Benjamin Miller sat down next to his friend. “I want you back, Frankie. You were doing so good, you are doing so good. Six months sober is a big fucking deal. I know you want to see them, I know you want to hold your baby, so why are you doing this?”

Covering the tears that were wetting his hands, Frankie answers honestly. “Rose doesn’t deserve this, neither does Jana. It’s best they get used to me being gone”

“Jesus, Frank…” Ben breathes in sharply, carefully considering his next course of action. “Don’t you see how that scares the shit out of me? I know I’m a mess, but I worry about you too, a lot. I can’t lose another friend… I know you’ve seen more loss than me, your mom, Fatima, Tom… please don’t do that to us. I know it’s selfish to ask…” Benny choked up, flopping back on the couch. “But I need you alive. Remember when we split up with Santi when we found Laci, and we spent those 30 something hours thinking he was dead… God I was a fucking mess. My life would be over if something happened to you guys, I’d never see a sober day in my life and I know… I know it’s not about me but I need you to understand, we love you, we love you so fucking much. Me, Will, Pope, Laci, Jana, Rose. Christ, Frank, Rosie adores you, you’re a great dad, you just need help”

Frankie leaned back with Ben, allowing Benny to rest his wet face on Frankie’s shoulder. “I’m sorry Ben, I am. I don’t want to hurt you guys, that’s why I said that shit to Santi, that’s why I abandoned Jana and Rose, I just… I don’t know if I can keep doing this…”

Benny took his hand. “You can, you’ve gone so fucking far already, you just have to let us in, not push us away…”

“I know… I’m gonna try, I promise.”

“I’ll talk to Jana and the guys. We’ll help you, you can always come stay with me or Will, and Santi and Lace when they don’t have foster kids. We’re not going to abandon you.”

A deep, steadying breath. “I’m not… I’m not ready to see Jana and Rose yet…”

Benny nodded against Frankies arm. “Okay, I’ll talk to her, I’ll handle it. She’ll understand, she always has. Everythings gonna be okay.”

Benny stayed with him that day and all night, until Frankie left for work in the morning, talking over things here and there. Benny was easy to talk to like that. When Frankie came home from his job shortly before 5:30, Benny’s jeep was replaced by Will’s truck. Just like, Will stayed through the next morning. Will didn’t have a big dramatic talk; Will was not dramatic.

“Did you try to kill yourself?”

“No”

“What do you need from me? Need to talk?”

“No, I just need your company”

“Done”

Everyone had rolls to play, and Will’s was not one to talk. He would, of course, if that’s what Frankie needed, but even if he did, it would be more along the lines of guided listening. No, Will was the pillar, and his part was to stay there with Frankie as much as he needed. Frankie appreciated Will’s silent company. It was a comfortable silence, to be sure. Occasionally, if Frankie found himself drift off into his thoughts, Will, ever observant, would ask “You good?”

“Yeah, just think’n, that’s all”

“Anything you wanna bounce off me?”

“Not right now, thanks”

“Alright, you let me know if you need to. Ran into the nurse again.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Yeah, Ben did some asking around, turns out she’s got a boyfriend”

“Oh damn, sorry to hear that”

“Yeah, but I knew him in high school, he’s a loser.”

“Still got a chance, man.”

Will was the kind of person you came to if you needed answers, a solution, to brainstorm ideas and to be told the honest truth. Sometimes, in recovery, people tiptoe around you. Will wouldn’t do that, but he wouldn’t be cruel either.

Will left that morning, and Frankie was surprised to find, not long after getting home, a gentle but firm knock on the door. He opened it to find Laci on his door step holding a few bags of groceries. He looked down at her, confused at the fact Santi wasn’t trailing her like a puppy as he usually did. He looked up to see Santi in his car, frowning. It wasn’t a ‘’fuck you, Frankie’ Frown, but more of his ever present concern whenever he left the girl anywhere. 

“You gonna let me in, or are you gonna wait until I drop this milk on your toes”

“Oh-uh, sorry.”

Frankie moved aside, letting her walk to the kitchen she was familiar with after babysitting Rosie so much, and Frankie looked on. Ever stubborn, Santi stayed in the car. Frankie gave a little wave, which Santi returned, and after he closed the door, he heard Santi leave.

“I can’t believe Pope let you come here”

The blonde turned around as she set the groceries down, her face calm, but firm. He did something wrong. “Frankie, I love you, but I need all of you guys to stop acting like Santi makes the choices on where I go. He does not ‘let me’ do anything, okay?”

Frankie nodded, conceding to her. “You’re right, Manita, lo siento. I only meant that, considering what I said, I didn’t think Santi would drive you here.”

She relaxed at that, taking out the items from the reusable and placing them on the counter. “He knew if he didn’t take me, Ben or Will would.”

“Did he…” Frankie cleared his throat, a deep flush creeping on his face “Talk to you about that?”

She looked at him as she gathered the pans and utensils she needed. “About what you said? Yeah, after he tried to avoid it for hours” She shook her head with a smile. “Always trying to protect me, as if I haven't been called worse things than a cheater”

When Frankie had said those things, he knew it would get back to her, but in the clarity of sobriety from the booze Benny poured down the drain, the idea that she thought he thought those things of her… “No, Lace, I don’t think-”

Laci held out a hand, a soft smile on her face. “I know, Frankie. You were trying to get a rise out of Santi.”

Frankie nodded, dodging her eyes and looking ashamed. “I don’t think of you as that kind of person. I know you and Santi are in love, and I know Ben is your friend.”

Her smile grew at the mention of Santi’s love for her. “It’s okay, I swear. No hard feelings. Now, can you reach that pan on the top shelf?”

Frankie readily walked around the counter to reach for the desired item. “You don’t have to make anything, Laci”

“I know, but I want to. Look me in the eye and tell me you’ve eaten real food this week” She had him there. “That’s what I thought. Now, show me you onion chopping skills, because Ben’s gotten to the point he can out mince the best of us.”

Frankie smiled back at her sparkling blue eyes, gave her a kiss on the side of her head with a very quiet ‘thank you’ and went to work.

Laci didn’t make him talk either, opting to chatter away about the week. She told him how their first foster kid went, how despite having the baby for only a few hours, Laci already felt attached and wasn’t entirely sure she could do this long term. Laci had a difficult life, resulting in strong, fearful attachment to those she loved. This wasn’t always a good thing; before Santi, she had a myriad of abusive boyfriends and friendships that drained her of everything she had, everything she was after her brother’s death left her on her own.. Laci had attached to Rosie immediately the first day they met each other, and had quickly become an aunt to her, like Santi was her uncle. Frankie could imagine how having a kid for a few hours, nonetheless up to a week and then never seeing them again might be difficult on the girl, but she knew she was privileged with Santi’s money, and wanted to give back.

As she talked on about convincing Santi to get a cat, Frankie smiled, watching her cook. Frankie could absolutely see why Santi fell so deeply in love, and there was no doubt in his mind that had they met under different circumstances and Laci hadn’t been so dependent on him at the start, they would be no less in love now. 

When night fell, Laci asked if she could stay over. Last summer, when Frankie lived with Santi and Laci for the earliest months of sobriety, Frankie often found himself awake on the couch. Laci, troubled with nightmares, would join him if she couldn’t sleep and Santi was out cold. Together, they’d watch late night shitty TV and infomercials together. Tonight, they recreated that until Laci fell asleep on the couch and he covered her in a blanket. He woke up to Laci cooking him breakfast, handing him a plate before saying goodbye and heading out the door.

That evening, he wondered if Ben would be back and just have a rotation of people watching him, but was surprised when Santi let himself into the house.

Frankie blinked at him. “Hey man.”

Shuffling where he stood with his hands in his pockets, Santi looked like he was considering his words. “Hey”

“Are you uh… next on addict duty?” He joked lightly.

There was a pause as Santi’s face still, then the tell tale sign of him biting back a laugh before his face split into a wide grin. “Jesus” He chuckled.

Frankie laughed along with him for a moment before they settled into silence, some of the tension eased. 

“I’m sorry, you know I’m sorry. I don’t think those things about her”

“I know, she wouldn’t have been over if we thought you did”

“I don’t…” Frankie took a big breath, stepping a bit closer. “I don’t think those things about you, either. I don’t think you’re taking advantage of her.”

Santi closed him eyes, taking a deep breath. “Yeah, yeah I know. I shouldn’t have reacted like that.”

He shook his head. “No, you were right to, I-”

“Frank.” Santi interrupted. “You’re wrists were still bloody, I should’ve been more patient.”

“You stayed, though. You didn’t leave me.”

Santi visably softened, closing the gap and wrapping his brother in a hug that Frankie readily returned. “Never gonna leave, Francisco. You can’t get rid of me if you tried”

They watched Tv together, talking as if nothing had happened.

“So Laci convinced you to get a cat?”

“Yeah,” Santi chuckled. “Therapist thought it would be good for her, she really loves it.”

Frankie simply nodded.

Santi shuffled before his next words. “We wanna have a baby”

Francisco never turned so damn fast. “What? You haven't even been dating a year”

“Well, we’re not having a kid right now. She’s got an appointment with a doctor, we don’t even know if she can have kids after everything. Plus, he’s still pretty underweight, gotta make sure her body can handle that sort of thing”

Frankie calmed down a bit. He loved Laci, but a kid right now seemed fast.

“Besides” Santi continued with a smirk. “I gotta propose first.”

There was that fast turn again, he nearly cracked his neck. “Pope!” He said with a smile. Despite his reservations about jumping in, he couldn’t help but be happy for his friends..

Santi grinned. “I got a ring already, I just gotta figure out how to do it.”

Laci was having a sleepover with Benny so that Santi could stay the night. Although Laci staying over at Ben’s or vice versa wasn’t uncommon, Laci and Santiago spending more than one night apart was. This would be the most nights in a row they’d spent apart since Santi, Will and Frankie went to St. Louis that summer. Santi had often expressed how much better he slept with her rather than alone, prompting Frankie to joke.

“You need me to cuddle you tonight so you don’t miss her too much?”

“Oh ha, ha, ha” Santi grumbled, settling himself into the couch with a blanket, since Rosie's room only had her bed.

After a pause, Frankie continued. “Come on, you’re not sleeping on the couch. I’m not cuddling yuh, though.”

With a grin, Santi joined him. Although the pair shared plenty of beds and tents over the years, somehow, this reminded Frankie of their childhood. The two of them were often left alone in their younger years, sometimes all day if Santi’s mom was working multiple shifts and Fatima was working her job to keep the family alive. As a result, it wasn’t entirely out of the ordinary for Santiago and Frankie to stay together overnight alone when Frankie’s dad was too high or drunk to function. Frankie was forever grateful to the Garcia’s for taking him in, another mouth to feed and sometimes clothe when his dad was on a bender, he’d never have graduated and might not have survived without them. For years, him and Santi were constantly together, only separated by the military when they joined and were stationed separately. Still, fate had other plans, and when the special ops team Santi joined needed a pilot, Santi went to bat for him, scoring him a position on the team, and once again they were reunited. Santi was a brother in all senses but blood and he owed everything to him. His life, in multiple ways, but also Jana and Rosie; Santi introduced them, after all, when Frankie visited Santi in Fort Stewart. Through everything, no matter what, Santi stayed by his side.

When Santi left that morning, he asked if Frankie was ready to see the girls, and Frankie hesitantly agreed. He wasn’t entirely sure if he was ready, if he ever would be, but if he was going to be a dad, he couldn’t just choose it when it was convenient.

When the knock came at the end of Frankie’s day, Frankie rushed to the door to find an exceedingly rare sight. Jana, dressed in gray sweats and a flannel, crying, holding a fussy Rose in her arms. Jana almost never cried. And worst of all, she looked angry.

“Jan-”

“I have been standing out here for twenty minutes, waiting to stop crying before I knock, because I didn’t want you to see me like this, i didn’t want you to feel bad, but I don’t think it’s stopping”

Frankie looked on pathetically, wanting so badly to hold her, wipe away the tears.

Jana let out a frustrated growl. “I stitched up your wrists two weeks ago, and I have not had a damn minute to breathe or process it since then! You abandon me when I needed you to take your daughter, thank fucking god Will came for her, and thank god Laci and Jacob could watch her while I worked, but god dammit, for two weeks, two weeks! I didn’t eat, and I haven't slept because every time I lay down, all I can see is you covered in blood. And I know, I know I can’t be angry, I shouldn’t be angry because this isn’t about me-”

“Jana, no-”

She threw up the arm that wasn’t holding Rose. “But I am! And I know I shouldn’t, but I’m hurt, I’m frustrated, I’m tired and I’m scared, Francisco. I’m terrified!” Jana wiped tears from her dark skin, brown eyes flashing angrily, but so, so sad. “I’m so fucking scared and I’ve been scared for years as I watched you get worse, and worse, and worse and then that night happened and you say it wasn’t an attempt, but it very well could’ve ended with you DEAD!” Jana screamed, before Rosie started crying, already cranky, and Jana immediately nuzzled Rose to her chest, face contorting in pain as she held her daughter and Frankie watched on helplessly. “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry mija” She stroked her hair. 

“Here, let me” Frankie reached out for Rosie, who Jana gave up to him, and Rose clung desperately to her dad. 

Jana watched on as Rosie quieted down. “She’s been cranky all week. She missed her daddy…” taking a deep breath, she calmed herself a bit, although the long-built up tears didn’t stop. “She needs a nap. Can you put her down? I need… I need to take a minute”

“Yeah” Frankie nodded frantically, holding Rosa tightly. “I’m sorry, for everything, I-”

Jana shut her eyes tightly. “Can we talk in a bit? You talk to her first, I need… I need to go run or something.”

“Yeah, yeah querida, do what you have to, I’ll get her too sleep.”

With a kiss on Rosie’s head, and a sad smile to Frankie, Jana pulled out her airpods and immediately went on a run. She wasn’t kidding about that.

Frankie walked inside, taking Rose to her room, but he didn’t want to let go of her yet. He sat in the rocking chair Will made and upholstered for her baby shower, holding her so fucking tight as he began crying. “I’m so sorry, baby girl”

[ephemeralsx]

they hate on feyre because they wish nesta and elain had the relevance in the series that feyre has as the heroine, it’s not even in the characters the fans are just immature and so because people self insert they do that with the sisters and have to be either to soft girl like elain or the bitchy one like nesta no grey area personality like feyre where she’s a mix of both, they need to be either the “cold girl boss” or “the princess type” character, because this series isn’t that complex and feyre hasn’t done much wrong at all to warrant the fanbases dramatics but this is just an immature petty fanbase that self inserts onto the sisters so they trash on feyre with whatever made up nonsense they come up with all while wishing their characters had what feyre has. her storyline, man, powers and title.

they lie and claim they don’t think she’s interesting of course just to seem superior all while elain and nesta are less impressive than feyre. they don’t have her powers of each court, they aren’t the first and only high lady like she is, they aren’t mated to the most powerful fae to ever exist, the lord of night, they aren’t lady of the night court, they aren’t as important to the inner circle as feyre is having met them all first giving them their first nephew, they don’t have cass or az as a high lord who calls all the shots with BDE, they don’t have the most popular love story of sjm’s, they don’t have the beautiful storyline that feyre has nor do they have a glow up story like hers (from neglected, bullied, manipulated, beaten, starved and killed to strong happy powerful wealthy first high lady, rhys’ only ever lover we know of (az and cass have histories which nesta and elain stan’s hate) she’s come a long way, is known as their country’s savior for freeing them all as cleverly as she did. what did nesta and elain ever do? i like elain! i don’t even hate nesta. but it’s easy to clear a nesta or elain stan when they’ve barely got anything going for them compared to their younger sister. don’t self insert too much guys to where you lose sight of how uninteresting your faves really are…feyre stan’s can at least say we aren’t deluded, jealous or miserable as hell 😂 at least we got three books dedicated to us and a novella. what do nesta and elain get? one book each? a less iconic love story than feysand? don’t piss a feysand off yall, bc it’s so easy to shit on her sisters and we’ll all happily do it. we win because the sisters stan’s will always have to deal with feysand being the more important and popular in the series regardless of them getting books sjm will always involve them and make them important as leaders of their family.

i mostly agree with you! its insane to me how someone can absolutely hate a main character eho has 3 books completely in her pov, like if you dislike it so much stop reading it and stop bitching about it.

i actually love nesta, but i can admit that the abuse towards feyre in their childhood is very much real, and honestly makes me sick when i think about it. feyre deserves all the apologies from them. and nesta did apologise, thats why i love her, she grew as a character and found her true self. i won’t share my opinion about elain for the sake of my sanity bc i don’t want elain stans attacking me, plus my opinion about her is pretty irrelevant for this topic.

anyways, i wouldn’t say nesta is less impressive than feyre. of course, over the course of 4 books, feyre had more history since nesta hasn’t really been a main character since lately. i love feysand, to be honest, even more than nessian, but i think the reason for that is just because we know them the best. if nesta was the main character from the start, things would look way different. even tho acosf was like a bible long book, i feel like nessian was rushed and a bit of a disappointment (too centered on lust instead of love in my opinion).

but anyways, you’re right, *some* nesta or elain stans lose themselves in the role of the icy bitch or the flowery princess and often overlook or even hate on feyre. which makes me incredibly sad because i relate with feyre the most. the kid who always got overlooked but was still faced with the burden if responsibility.

calling feyre boring or irrelevant just because she settled down and just wants to be happy is so incredibly wrong. think about her whatever you want, but some hate is out of pocket and just unnecessary

[farewell-in-veil]

Both, or whichever you prefer :}

okay well itd probably be better to explain the actual games before explaining the aus i have for them , sooo !

starting off w / pr bc i can probably give a bit more of a coherent plot for it bc most of it is my hcs and nothing else ! ( the og plot is all over the place so trust me this is better )

so , hundreds of years ago , a god named equinox ruled over valestrum . and there was solstice who i think was lesser but also very powerful . tess aract and dusekkar were two ppl living under these two , and they fucking hated them bc um . tyrannical gods yknow ?

and one day when theyre still rlly young ( 13 - 14 methinks ) tess summons a demon , aka scriptliss . back then , ribbon demons werent uncommon at all , but nowadays , scriptliss is thought to be the only one left .

anyways , the trio grow up a bit , so fast forward to their mid to late 20s . they decide theyve had enough of equinox and solstice , so they start plotting to put an end to their reign . they go on quests for equinoxs oracle , aka sphara , and in turn she grants them each a wish . dusekkar wishes for a device to help him create a new world , and is granted the plot book . tess wishes for a vessel to help him study the void ( as hes an alchemist and void mage ) , and he gets the void star . scriptliss wishes for immortality , , and gets his soul ripped into 7 pieces lmao

anyways , equinox finds out ab the plot book and summons the 3 , then demands the plot book . dusekkar calls him a bitch , and this triggers doomsday . the 3 then proceed to have to beat the crap out of equinox and solstice

now dusekkars cousin , lanter , was a supporter of solstice , i think ? mightve been equinox tho . idk its irrelvant anyways . so hes pissed , and resents dusekkar for getting rid of them . dusk however doesnt care ( yes he does ) and creates a new world , paper robloxia .

everything is peaceful for a while , but then out favorite void mage decides " hm , what would happen if i put this bitch ( the void star ) on ? "

see the void star held a dormant evil god named 1x1x1x1 . tess put that bitch on and instantly , 1x transferred into his body , and used him as a puppet to commit mass genocide !

dusk and script were devastated to see what had become of their boyfriend ( oh did i mention they started dating at some point . lol ) , but they had no way of saving him . they had no choice but to lock him away in baland , which is essentially a prison dimension .

fast forward like a century or two later , scriptliss decides that tess rlly was all of his impulse control , and he was now going to take the pieces of his soul ( which can be very dangerous if they fall into the wrong hands and also will cause him to die if they all get destroyed ) and scatter them around . a town i forgot the name of . some random ass robloxian follows him around and collects them all , then delivers them back to dusekkar .

dusk tells them they had no idea those were even missing , and tells them to return them to their shrine in his wastebasket . so random ass robloxian : tm : does that . in the wastebasket they meet the folded , which are essentially scrapped people from when dusk was writing the plot book .

random ass robloxian leaves , scriptliss goes to the wastebasket to visit the folded and tell them stories , as per usual , and they proceed to lock him in the shrine . yippee !

and dusk is still clueless .

and fast forward like a couple hundred years , we have protagonist , this random ass bitch , waking up in prologue forest , with no idea how they got there . they begin to make their way out of the forest , and run into scriptliss . wowzers !

script tells protag that he has no idea how he got free , but ehs grateful for a second chance , yada yada . oh and also he has a piece of his soul chained to his leg . anyways , the two make their way out of the forest , and run into a scissor witch named wiscara at scissor shrine

she tells them that theres an evil necromancer named antagon on the loose , and she needs their help collecting 7 scissors . they agree , and protag makes their way up to castle climax , where a box dragon is going on a rampage .

they get to the castle and find a mage named otempes tryign to calm the box dragon . turns out her name is boxdra , and she was being controlled to go crazy . the two manage to bring her back though , and she gives protag a pair of scissors

now , on their way up to castle climax , protag got a letter from wiscara saying to meet her at peculiar hills . when protag gets there , she tells them that her brother , a wind mage named aristris , stole one of her scissors . the two make their way to his mansion , and traverse through it to get the scissors back . aristris taunts wiscara at the end , and she pushes him onto the ground , gets her scissors back , and opens a portal back to cutout town ( which is the town everythign is happening in forgot to mention that )

protag got another letter at some point , saying that they were needed at oddity woods . when they get there , they finally meet dusekkar . him and script have a nice reunion , and then they all get to buisness . protag is informed to make their way to oddity tree , where the rift of darkness is . its believed that antagon will target it , so they want to be sure to keep it safe . unfortunately , when protag , accompanied by otempes , get to the tree , the void star is there , and finishes absorbing the rift , then proceeds to disappear . luckily , it left a scissor behind !

so protag got another letter , inviting them to the brand new casino centavo . wiscara feels something is fishy , so she tells protag to go , since theyre the only one who got an invite . here they meet tucker trillion , and a bunch of other irrelevant characters that i do not remember the names of . anyways , after a bit of parkour , all the people in the casino get trapped in a room . there , antagon shows up on the tv , obscured by shadow , and informs everyone that this whole thing was a trap for the protagonist .

then , slowly , people begin to disappear . when its just tucker and protag left , tucker accuses them of being the one behind all this . turns out , the void star was just teleporting people lol . so tucker apologizes , and then they have to traverse through a gravity changing maze . when they eventually get out they find . wow scissors !

so during that whole thing protag got another letter , telling them to meet the others at these big ass doors . turns out the heroes are going to the rift of light , and they need get the first sage to open the door . the only problem is , , the first sage is lanter .

lanter no longer supports equinox , hes seen how awful that guy was , but he still resents dussekar . he believes hes too immature to be the ruler of paper robloxia . scriptliss has a perfectly fine relationship with lanter though . so him and protagonist go and get lanter .

lanter is willing to help , until he hears dusekkar will be there . scriptliss , however , is very convincing ( aka just too cute and pathetic to say no to ) . so finally , he agrees , and opens the door .

he doesnt intend on sticking around , but again , scriptliss is convincing . dusekkar , upon seeing lanter is sticking around , stays behind . the rest of the heroes go to retrieve the second sage , to opent he second sage door . the second sage is sphara ! unfortunately shes been sleeping since like a few years after the creation of paper robloxia .

they go to wake her up , and encounter glyph ! which , he was around back in old world times , but he went by glyphard and was . well , a human . now hes literally just a glyph .

anyways , he helps wake up sphara , and she makes a comment ab the wish she granted scriptliss , which leads to his whole past with tess being revealed . then she goes and opens the second sage door for them .

they all go to open the third sage door , but like halfway there , lanter reveals that the third sage was tess , and therefore if the door is open that would be very bad . so guess what ? the door is open lol .

they go inside , and find , , 1x1x1x1 in the rift of light . he appears to be in large amounts of pain . and he is ! it turns out tess is currently in control . antagon freed him from banland , and had him wear the void star again . he hadnt thought anything bad would happen , as he had already had 1x transferred into his body , and hed already regained control of his body . but oops , antagon filled the void star with dark energy , as we know from chapter 3 . the dark energy corrupted his mind , made him weak and easily overpowered by 1x . he rushed to the rift of light to try and counteract it , but it was too late for him .

he apologized to scriptliss , and told him that he loves him , and to tell dusekkar that he said the same to him . then he disappears , along with the rift of light . script is crushed , and lashes out at lanter and otempes when they try to comfort him , then runs off . protag then grabs the scissors that just existed for reasons

then low and behold a buncha portals open over the cutout town harbor and a bunch of warships appear ! this pink i lady says that shes with the banland security force , and theyve sided w / antagon bc she got bribed or something . tucker then takes the protag to sneak onto the ships and see whats goign on .

the moment they actually make it into a ship , they get kidnapped , and taken to the leader of the fleet , rozanda , a pin magic user , and a pirate released from banland . she then has tucker whisked off to be kept as a prisoner , and lets protag go free with a pair of scissors . for some reason

then protag goes to the music district , aka the neighboring area to cutout town , w / otempes . the residents there ( harmonians ) worship otempes , as long ago , he aided them in a war against tretone and the crevons . otempes goes to see his old friend , base clef , whos apparently a pacifist . then finds out base clef is declaring war bc tretone is threatening them or something .

the protagonist goes to crescendo crevice , aka where a battles ab to take place , and finds pink i there . pink i and base clef threaten each other with literal nukes , then just before fighting breaks out , otempes swoops in on boxdra and whisks protag off to sforandzo ( ? i think thats how its spelled ) spire , aka tretones lair .

they traverse up to the top together , and confront tretone . otempes questions why tretones doing this , when they had previously had an era of peace . tretone says hes sided with antagon , as hes a psychic , and had a vision that told him it was useless to resist . he then gives them scissors . bc why not .

so now we have 7 scissors ! wiscara opens a dimensional cut , and were transported to paper boxia . its just filled with box animals , nothing important happens here . except scriptliss' true form is revealed , and his soul that was chained to his leg is transformed into a crystal named cogen .

the next dimensional cut brings the heroes to clockworks domain , where theyre confronted by rozanda . she gives wiscara and otempes an outfit change for practically no reason , then tells them all that their efforts are meaningless and disappears . the heroes then meet clockwork , who speaks an old tongue called birdyword ( i think ) . dusekkar also speaks it and acts as a translator . clockwork ends up leading them to the next dimensional cut .

that leads them to banland . like paper boxia , not much happens here . none of the guards attack , and the next dimensional cut , , is in 1x1x1x1s cell . which kinda hits close to home for scriptliss . oops .

the final dimensional cut leads them to auxim , the dimension which holds antagons castle . theres guards in the way , but a strange creature named tsumin instructs the heroes to go tell a butcher ab antagons actions

the butcher is his mom , antagmom .

yeah .

she gets mad , hearing her son has been causing trouble , and goes and gets rid of the guards , allowing our heroes to pass through .

the first thing that happens ? 1x taunts script , and they start fighting midair .

the next thing we encounter is a battlefield . on one side is wiscara , otempes , boxdra , base clef , and an army of harmonians . on the other is pink i , tretone , an army of crevons , and , , , aristris ? yeah turns out hes a bad guy . also turns out tretone is fucking dead ! and robotified ! so cool . yeah protag gets out of there just before battle breaks out , but wiscara is practically heartbroken at seeing her brother side w / the enemy . even if he was annoying - she never expected this from him .

next up , we have 1x and scriptliss again ! this time , 1x and script are arguing in the air . 1x says something along the lines of " you dont even know who freed you , do you ? it was antagon . he freed us both . you owe him . " and this sends scriptliss into a panic attack which can best be sumemd up by " DONT LISTEN DONT LISTEN DONT DONT DONT DONT DONT DONT AAAAAAAAAAA - " and then 1x dips . cogen stays behind to try and help script .

next , we see tucker and a group of others who got kidnapped , tucker and rozanda r ab to fight , and the others r trying to stop him . not much else to say here .

and then 1x plunges protag into tess' subconscious . theres a lot of burnign shit , and 1x tries to get protag to derealize . a lot . and somewhat succeeds . however protag finds soemthing . a remnant of tess , in the form of a blurry , distoerted version of him . the moment they fidn him . they drag him around , detrmined to save him . for scriptliss . they confront 1x , and dsiract him long enough for scriptliss to swoop in , grab him and drag him back into the fight up in the air .

next , we see lanter confront lanter . lanter reprimands dusekkar for his actions , and asks him if hes going to throw antagon , a child , into banland , for essentially doing the same thing he had hundreds of years ago . try to overthrow gods . this makes dusekkar realize the error in his ways , and he promises to try and help antagon instead . lanter is satisfied with this and lets him continue on .

next . i think its important to tell u the canon version first , bc then ull know how objectively better my version is

canonically , scriptliss kills 1x , and bro is left as a fucking . stain on the ground . scriptliss is moruning , knowing this means he killed tess as well . he says he wants to die , yada yada .

my better version goes like this ; whilst fighting in the air , scriptliss uses his ribbon powers to throw 1x at teh ground . antagon , simply wanting to break scriptliss , lets tess have the body back midway through crashing to the ground . due to 1x still being present , tess isnt immediately killed . scriptliss sees tess , and immediately rushes to him . he tries his best to save him , but after a few quiet words and a gentle cheek hold , the void mage dies in his arms . protag and cogen watched this whole thing , and cogen encourages player to go on while she comforts scriptliss .

finally , were nearing the end . protagonist and dusekkar confront antagon , who then reveals that the plot book has been filled up , which wouldnt happen with dusekkar , but since antagon wasnt the owner , it didnt generate more pages for him . but antagon doesnt know this , so he thinks its useless and burns it . which proceeds to destroy reality as they know it .

luckily , dusk manages to grab a piece of the burning paper , and write on it , giving the three a platform , surroneded by paper nil . antagon starts crying like a bitch baby , dusekkar takes him in as his apprentice , idk i didnt pay much attention to this bit it was boring - anyways the dusk starts rewriting the plot book at 1000 words per second or something .

whilst rewriting it , he sees scriptliss , holding tess' body and floating through paper nil . and he decides to revive tess , like any good boyfriend would . yknow .

once hes done , they all exit through a door , and everythign is suddenly okay ! the questing trio has a sweet reunion , um tretone got revived bc i said so , and they hold a lil show with epic guitar solos ! stream summer of heroes or sumn .

yeah i think thats it . well i could go into more detail ab the aftermath i made up but this is already long enough , so small summary ; protag finds out they were one of the folded , gains more personality and becomes lil shit : tm : , and forces tess to give them half of 1xs being bc tess is always paranoid that 1x will take him over again bc hes still within him , and protag figures " hey he cant do shit if hes split between us ! "

also dusk and wiscara get married at some point

[swagging-back-to]

massive update on the ladies!!!!

not anything super major but just how long it will be lol

ok so i got them a grapewood vine! they're kinda whatever about it. they don't climb it at all which is disappointing but they nibble on it. also ordered a birch tunnel (not the super skinny ones you can find everywhere, this one is more wide and short with two holes) which will be one of the very last 'landscaping' items i buy for the girlies! i feel happy enough to stop here :)

the company i bought it from (happyhamstery, good store) also included some free goodies! they got a cork mat, a little basket from this weird plastic material (i haven't put that in the cage yet bc i know my girls will chew it), and a flower lollipop.

the lollipop smelled soooo good but my girls don't like flowers tbh and even if tey did it was mostly hay and mice don't eat hay. so they just pissed on it.

my housemate keeps shutting the heat off in 38*f weather so i bought the girlies a heat pad ima put under their tank. also got a convection heater for the room.

but i changed up their layout and added a deep bedding section. their tunnels are crazy ngl even tho its just a small little section. im actually super happy with their layout rn and tomorrow im going to start recording videos about them. Im coming for your brand emiology >:)

but no i also got them some new treats---dried banana chips! i haven't given them banana before but i heard its a smash hit for a lot of mice and i need to give them something less fatty then a pepita.

------

ok so onto the girlies!!!!! individual breakdowns <3

jasmine has glowed up so much, im so happy for her. she honestly isn't cuddling with the others most of the time but i can just see in her face that shes happier back in the colony. her weight is more stable too and she isn't just skin and bones from starving herself. Shes even warmed up to me a lot, will come into my hand willingly and when i give her antibiotics she doesn't bite at all anymore. I used to have to have five layers of gloves bc of how hard she bit. and it would take at least an hour to give her meds. now its like 2 mins.

pepper has also grown so much im so proud of her. she doesn't immediately run when she sees me anymore and she doesn't flee when i approach er with my hand. she outright expects me to give her a pepita now. Shes one of the few girls i know for a fact does not have the obesity gene, the only other ones being jasmine and poppy. THATS IT. all my girls at 50g<

peanut has finally stopped tilting her head! she had a bad head tilt for a while and i tried treating it with antibiotics but it only got slightly better. im glad it went away on its own. shes still really sweet and one of the my few mice who will bang at the glass to try to get to me.

poppy used to be my absolute heart mouse, she would wake up and just pace the tank for my attention and jump at the glass when i walked over. shes kinda backed off lately and its sad. shes still a lil girl tho.

dhal is doing a little better. her feet arent SO swollen (i think it might've been a wheat or aspen allergy?) and her coat looks a little better. even her ibs is a bit better. for a while she was looking real rough tho. im still giving her antibiotics for her raspiness i heard a while back.

split pea is another who was chattering a while back and is just generally acting sick.

ginger's eye seems to be doing a little better but im worried about this weird fatty lump o the back of her shoulders. it doesn't look like a tumor but im worried its an abscess from bites she got and I've been treating with antibiotics. shes soooo sweet tho shes such a babyyyyyy shes one of the only mice i actually dream about

clove is a bit worrying i wont lie. i thought i caught her having a relapse in seizures earlier but she was just dreaming. shes just really big. 90g. her fur is kinda patchy and her skins all red from how hot she is all the time. I've tried everything to get her to lose weight. the lowest i got her to was 84g two weeks ago but she shot back up again. it's hard to know if its heart related, and i cant know if she has a tumor bc shes just too big </3 i hope shes with me for a long time tho bc shes such a baby

mochi and sushi are both doing fine, they're my most skittish girls now and its because i never had a true bonding period when i first got them. sushi's tumor hasn't grown afaik.

peaches is also doing okay, she just vibes honestly.

[aaaaatillathenun]

What the fuck is wrong with today? Did I just wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Is it cosmic?

It started so good. I woke up 45 minutes before my alarm and I was excited to get some “extra sleep”.

There was a big asshole truck driving on the way to work. Like I understand you want some small dick compensation but like at least be able to handle it if you feel the need to get one. This guy kept driving on the line and making me feel unsafe when I tried to pass him.

Then I did my stupid little one hour of work and I discovered that the fucking travel office changed the layout of the travel system we use without telling anyone. A couple weeks after they changed they layout of their website without telling anyone. I fucking hate the travel office. Someone I support has a report pending from a trip he took in April. That’s a whole different fiscal year, shouldn’t there be some consequences for your poor time management? I fucking. Hate. The. Travel. Office.

Then for my fucking class the lab manager didn’t come to open the door to the computer lab the class was in until 25 minutes after it started. Absolute waste of everyone’s time. Everyone was there at 8 in the goddamn morning for a class and your website and door both say that you’ll be there at 8. Where’s the communication? Absolutely fuming. I had to very consciously restrain myself from yelling at him, because honestly fuck that dude. I hope the professor chews him out. I should tell the professor that tbh.

The class was stupid as it always was. CliftonStrengths is a scam.

Then I got lost in the building like a chump trying to get out and I got pissed. I think you’re supposed to exit on the second floor, but how the hell am I supposed to know that? The star on the elevator was next to the first floor.

And its difficult to ride my bike when I’m hauling all the shit around to refill my snack drawer in an extra bag and all the fucking freshmen dont know how to walk on the sidewalks so bikes can get by.

My advising session was actually p good not gonna lie. Someone with the same advisor told me that she didn’t like the advisor bc she was so direct, but idk what she was on bc that was a great advisor and a person I get along with and would like to get the point of view more

Then back at work the fucking fire alarm went off. It was so fucking loud where I was and then we all had to hang out outside for twenty minutes until the firefighters came. And no one knows still if it was a drill or not but idek if it matters bc the “floor safety officers” were so bad at their job and didn’t really know what to do.

Then I found out that one of the systems we use wasn’t set up properly for me and I talked to my supervisor about it to try and get her to fix it. THEN I found out that I had actually been looking in the wrong place for a fucking year and it WAS set up correctly.

Also I checked my bank account and the term tuition has not been taken out of my bank account even though I have the payment confirmation. So I’ll wait for another like week and then check again.

I also realized that I forgot to pay rent and utilities for October. I need to let my roommate know that I’ll be renewing for another 6 months. However part of this non payment is bc she didn’t put any of the utilities i to tricount so idk what I owe her. I’ll get the check when I get home today tho. Hopefully she’ll let me waive the three day late fee because she also didn’t do anything for the utilities.

I hate when my job makes me feel like a travel agent and reimbursement machine but when it’s anything else I’m so out of my depth because all I ever do is travel shit.

Lets see how the rest of this shit day will go. I still have an hour and a half left of work plus I said I would show my face at a social event for my volunteer club, but that’s ok bc the new officers will be picking up the tab so I get a free drink or 2. But then I have a bunch of readings to do tonight.

Why the fuck did i decide that working and going to grad school at the same time and also living so far from everything was a good idea.

[rosedesang]

Opposites, they are. The quintessential korean woman, in this modern yet old money tradition way, Seraphina is ; meanwhile the voice of the rebellion of a new generation, Allegra carries, with her revendications, vibrant colors and strong personality. There always has been something condescending in the way Seraphina would answer to them, these outsiders speaking on how Allegra is nothing like her. The apple does not fall so far from the tree Dears. My little sister will find her inner peace as time passes, I am sure of it. - Allegra? Hah. Oh. She is a wild card isn't she. It will not last forever now, will it. - That fashion obsession she has? It must be a phase. It isn't with the active wish of belittling her little sister - it is more of half hoping Allegra will indeed change one day, and be more like her. It was all wrong however, as years pass, the gap between keeps on widening, they are now furthur than ever. Isn't it Envy then? A vicious unadmitted internalized form of envy. Allegra allows herself to be free, not to care about what her family or people expect of her. Could Seraphina ever be this free? Sometimes she has wondered. Being the first born son is easy - yes there are responsabilities but men are always free, Bellamy has it all. Being the last born is easy too - less expectations are put on Allegra as in, despite the existential crisis she seems to be constantly in, she can do whatever the hell she wants. As for being the first born daughter... Well, this one is tricky, it doesn't come with the luxury of ultimate power like Bellamy has, it doesn't come with the carefreeness of being less watched like Allegra has, it comes with the expectation of being the perfect wife and a pretty face, period.

"What are you even saying, Silly!" Her tone is way too high pitched for the line and her smile a little too enthusiastic. Fake. "Unfortunately for Both of us? Out of my hair? Do you hear yourself speak. Unlike you, Ally, I appreciate spending time together. The last girls day we had, only you and I, perhaps has been what.. three to five years ago... ? That is not what sisters do. Sisters share secrets and go to the Arabian spa together, don't you think?" Her plastic smile remains. "Mother has indeed been worried sick. Bellamy as well. Have you not accepted after all these years that maybe, they care about you? We could have been caught in the explosion that night. We could have died." In a twisted, conflictual way, they do Care. The Kangs are a pack, they work, walk and evolve together. Seraphina's head tilted to one side as Allegra keeps on with the passive aggressive bit. In the end Seraphina is the one who cares and worries the least. While Bellamy works his ass off to buy all the medias that blabbers about Allegra all day - Seraphina says Allegra deserves it, she says actions have consequences, she says little sister should face them all. Yes Bellamy does go out of his way which pisses Seraphina off very often - even tho he doesn't' own Dispatch, he tries - something Seraphina knows Allegra isn't even aware of nor thankful for. "I only want you well, dearest. I have seen your career flourish from afar, please know that I am happy for you. As for your collection, I do hope you will invite your favorite sister to the festivities, yes?" The next question brings a raised eyebrow to her eye in a positive way however, a question regarding her business, at least Allegra is trying to care - that's enough for Seraphina : effort. "Our business yes. I am flattered you do remember. You should know everything is going quite flawlessly, beautifully. I believe we started something grander than we hoped - which is, again, Beautiful. I do know you have little to no interest in what we do but if you are ever interested to join, you have a right by birth. It's never too late to be part of the family. As long as you don't cause any mmm... scenes, of course. " A very private business, behind doors none who arent authorized to is allow to open. There is a natural trust in the family however, even Allegra, they wouldn't whisper behind her back, they would speak freely when she is here, it is intended that what happens in the family stays in the family. Seraphina however keeps an eye on Allegra's fiancée, Devora Diana Song, the type of journalistic weasel who could easily stick her nose in La Rose's matters and well, it would be a hassle for Seraphina to be forced to explain to Allegra why they will have to break one of her fiancée's arms in order to keep her quiet - hopefully it never reaches that point.

HEY HEY HEY

I love your writing, can I please get jealous hcs for anyone? Please include suna thi he's my latest brainrot hAHA

hi, thanks for the request! and suna brainrot?? bitch me too the fuck. anyways, hope you enjoy~

(also sorry this is kinda late, i've rewritten iwaizumi and bokuto ones a million times)

Haikyuu boys when they're jealous

characters suna rintarou, kuroo tetsurou, iwaizumi hajime, bokuto koutarou, kenma kozume

warnings none but i'm probably gonna say fuck at some point

Suna Rintarou

he tries to be chill about it, he does

it hurts his ego to be this clingy but god

he can't help but to feel that sour sting of jealousy when he sees another guy approaching you

at first will only take a quick glance from afar, just to check if the guy is bothering you, and then promises himself to stay out of your business

well he doesn't

once he decides the guy has lost talking-to-y/n-alone privilege, he will nonchalantly make his way towards you, one hand in his pocket, other sneaking its way to your shoulder, resting his elbow and giving the poor boy a menacing look

he can be pretty intimidating too with that eyeliner and all

(but that look only works on people that don't know him well, he tried it on atsumu once and the latter just laughed in his face)

not the type to be openly jealous but when he sees someone blatantly flirting with you he will start to give you the Glance

blinks slowly (you know, like that one blonde haired guy gif) and looks at you through raised eyebrows as if to say hey babe, i love you and i trust you. what the fuck tho

and when the guy starts being borderline creepy he'll appear between you - and i mean literally will inject himself between you two and strike a conversation with you as if nothing weird happened

they usually get the hint, but this one guy tried to go around him, still rambling about whatever and suna literally turned on his heel and said "come again?" with such unrivaled coldness, his eyes exuding just sheer fucking spite

but like i said, unless the other guy is asking for it, he's not the type to start a direct confrontation

will take you by the hand and leave without much thought because he simply doesn't have the time for that shit

he might seem grumpy afterwards but a couple of soft kisses usually do the trick

soft kisses which are followed by a breathless make out session with you on his kitchen counter because he still wants you to know you're only his

Kuroo Tetsurou

this little bitch

never gets jealous

and i mean never

once pretended he was jealous just to make you feel better (??? his logic? unparalleled) but once you found out you beat his ass

loves it when you get jealous though (he thinks it's cute)

sometimes he does get insecure, but he shows it in an unusual way

like if you've been talking to someone, smiling at your phone for a while he'll just get up and randomly do a couple puhs-ups, start flexing his muscles and shit

all while you're looking at him like,,

"babe, what are you doing"

"oh i didn't think you'd notice me there. since you're on your damn phone all day"

"...are you my mom?"

nah he'll be fine (will steal your phone though)

also it's the funniest thing when he sees someone trying to flirt with you

he will literally walk over there, introduce himself (not mentioning he's your boyfriend) and act really interested in the conversation

he plays this game where he tries to see how long will it take the guy to realise you two are together (longest time: 24 minutes, record holder: yahaba shigeru)

whenever the guy asks you something he will interrupt you and answer for himself as if the guy were flirting with him

"so, like what do you do in your free time?"

"not mu-"

"oh i love taking long walks on the beach, especially during sunsets. i really think it is healthy for the mind and the soul, not to mention quite romantic too. don't you too love sunsets, kevin?"

at one point kevin will have had enough of it

"i was talking to y/n alone here"

"aw don't worry, you're not bothering me"

he is such a pain in the ass

why can't he just be normal

Iwaizumi Hajime

rational, mature, i love him

seriously, he is the bestest boy and he will treat you so well because he trusts you and respects your friendship with other guys as well

but on those rare occasions when he does get jealous,, oh boy

first of all, the PDA skyrockets, he has to have his arm around you at all times - around your shoulder? on your waist? in your backpocket? his hand's been there done that

not in any way possesive but will be really annoying unless you give him your full undivided attention that day

he lets himself be selfish a bit, after all he is your boyfriend he can have you all to himself for a day, right?

jealous sex with him? better prepare a wheelchair cause you want be able to walk straight tomorrow

sees a boy trying to flirt with you? tries not to make a scene but absolutely will throw the first punch if he needs to

one day he was having a particularly rough time at practice and all he wanted to do was lose himself in your arms and fall asleep to the feeling your fingertips tangled in his hair

and then he saw this?? guy? (the audacity!) laughing with you after telling some dumb joke and let me tell you - iwaizumi wasn't having any of it

he came up to you from behind, wrapped his arms around your waist and planted a small kiss on the crook of your neck

"when are we going home, love?"

and he gives him the calmest yet most fear inducing stare from behind you

and suddenly the pattern on poor boy's pants starts to look awful lot like piss stain

it is actually kinda hot how one single look from him can cause such a reaction

"he was just asking about english homework babe"

"yeah that's what they all say"

Bokuto Koutarou

gets jealous so so easily

it is actually fascinating

will get mad at otome games

"what does jumin han have that i don't???"

god forbid you pay attention to your pet more than him (btw you have a golden retriever and his name is bean)

you're sitting on the couch cuddling with your dog, scratching his ears, ruffling his fur and all that, and there he is, your clingy boyfriend, snuggling right next to you, demanding you play with his hair too

so dramatic

"you smiled at him... the way you used to smile at me..."

"bokuto, he's a dog"

the only guy he trusts 100% to be around you is akaashi, even kuroo is on thin ice

but him and akaashi are something else, one time you three had a sleepover and you felt like you were the third wheel

will act like a tough serious boyfriend in front of others, especially your other guy friends but in reality will look for affection immediately after

oh while we're at it - jealous bokuto kisses? are the best kisses

will also force you to wear one of his shirts for the rest of the day

my poor man is so touch starved so when he feels insecure or jealous he will look for comfort in things like holding your hand, nuzzling your neck or giving forehead kisses

but later that day, when you two are sitting on the couch cuddling he will quietly ask you something along the lines of "you still think i'm pretty, right?"

you can feel him all over you - his hands are creeping down your waist, he's pulling you in, deepening the kiss until all you can see, think and feel is him

he wants to show you exactly how much he wants you and what you were missing out on while you weren't paying attention to him

and it shocks you for a moment because you didn't realise just how much that one short moment of jealousy actually stayed with him

you have to reassure him he's the most beautiful boy you have ever met, and not only that, but also the funniest and the most caring person as well, and that you would never leave his side no matter what happened

and as much as he loves getting praised he always gets embarrassed, so he just smiles in return, but he is also happy to know you're there for him and you don't think he is too much

Kenma Kozume

it depends on his mood honestly

sometimes he doesn't mind it even if the other guy is flirting with you and sometimes will get pissy if you smile at the cashier

but when this boy gets really jealous oh my GOD

he is just like bokuto if not worse; he just hides it so well

one time you went grocery shopping with him and spent the entire time texting your friend who had just told you she was visiting your city

and he got so offended

you didn't even notice it until later that day when you came home and he suddenly refused to cuddle with you

silent treatment

lifts his nose and ignores you, only giving you dirty side glances from under the eye

such a massive sense of pride in those 170 cm even oikawa would be impressed

in my country there's a saying "it's in the smallest bottle that the poison lies" and honestly? yeah

at some point you realise why he's acting like that and you start teasing him

"i am not jealous i am just mildly irritated" is the only thing he deems necessary to say before going back to being unnecessarily pissed

he reminds you of an angry cat

it's kind of amusing seeing him like this but you were also getting real tired of his shit

don't even try bribing him (you tried buying him over with a ps5 but he just looked at you unimpressed, disgusted that you think so low of him)

the only thing he will accept is a sincere apology

if it's sincere or not is up to him to decide, obviously

which can lead to quite some bickering

will try to get you to beg but please have dignity, if you do it once he will make you do it every time

yeah generally a lttle shit but his kisses after making up are just as eager as yours so

[titsuya]

when she writes watersports 😩😩

also idek what this is? like is it a request, is it a thirst? no clue bc i get nervous asf sending in asks

i always have this on my mind HHH but omi who knows your schedule so well, so well in fact that he knows when you use the bathroom.

he’s been scheming for awhile now, getting you into the habit of drinking a ton of water before your shift at work. he’s been doing this because he knows since you’re so busy at work, you never have time for a bathroom break. you always come home and rush to the bathroom before even greeting him.

-

you complain to him about needing to use the bathroom before your date, but he just ushers you out quickly, “you can go at the restaurant. since your shift ended late i don’t wanna miss our reservation,” he said, placing a guiding hand on your back.

all he can focus on in the car while he’s driving is how you’re squirming, pressing your legs together and shuffling into different positions to alleviate the pressure in your bladder.

he snakes his hand across the center console over to the hem of your pants. he grips the steering wheel tighter as he toys with your cunt.

“omi, you can’t,” you whine, “gotta pee.”

you can decide whether omi lets y/n go or not alfjkfjsh

hhhhhh, draven ur killing meeee !!! dont be nervous ill indulge in anything u send (ɔ˘ ³(ˆ◡ˆc)

tw PISS KINK (lowkey humiliation kink too) YES BITCHES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT tbh i’d also say a pinch of dark content

i feel like omi’s a MEAN DOM. like absolutely, he’s a menace. i’m not arguing that.

so that being said, i feel like he’d definitely just play with you till you absolutely can’t hold it any longer. and only, and i mean ONLY, after you’ve begged and sobbed to piss, he’ll let you.

not without calling you a nasty little slut tho 😵‍💫

(even though he’s the nasty slut who wants u to piss on him >:( )

i imagine it’d go a little like this:

you clench your thighs together tightly to stop him for moving his hand, “o-omi, s-stop—“

“open your legs, now.” he orders. “or else i’m just gonna make you sit there and whine like a bitch about it,”

you whimper, opening up your legs.

he’s relentless, rubbing quick circles into your clit and you feel like you’re going to fucking burst. tears falling from your eyes because you need to piss so bad that it’s starting to hurt.

“o-omi,” you sob. “please stop! ‘m gunna make a mess!”

he’s a clean freak, yes, but omi could care less if you make a mess. sure he’ll call you nasty and dirty, but he’s the culprit. he wants you to make a mess. he wants to feel the warmth of your piss all over his hand. he wants to hear you cry about how humiliated you are after pissing all over him.

“you can hold it,” is all he says to your tears, nearly careless, but the twitch of his cock reveals that he’s actually so turned on right now.

the bump in the road omi hits has you gasping and you almost let go, but you’re holding on to the little strength you have left, not wanting to make him mad.

“please!!! please, fuck, omi. pull over, i needa go!”

“yeah? you wanna go that bad?” he asks, but he knows the answer. “if you wanna go, you gotta beg.” he smirks, taking quick glances at your facial expression.

your furrowed brows and mouth hung open as your head was thrown back against the leather seat of his car. he suppresses the growl in his throat opting on rubbing your clit faster.

“omiomi, fuck, i’m begging you! please, ‘ll do anything! please pull over n let me go,” you cry and cry and at this, omi smirks and pulls the car over into the closest gas station and parks the car.

you sigh in relief, but before you could leave the car, he locks the door.

“omi?” you question, meekly.

“you wanna go, right?” he questions lips pressed to your ear, putting his fingers back on your clothed clit, using his free hand to push on your stomach. “go ahead,”

“o-omi!” you sob, the pressure his hand is putting on your bladder becoming too much.

you try to hold on as long you can, but you just can’t, the warm fluid leaving your body, soaking through your panties and dripping all over his hand.

you let out an embarrassed whimper, cheeks heating up at the fact that you were literally pissing all over the leather seats of his car.

“that’s it, nasty little slut,” he coos, kissing your cheek. “yeah, how about we forget the reservation?”

when omi tells u to piss, u piss, no questions asked :$
