Part One

Golden Pt. 2

It's been a few days since you last saw the pair, and maybe you're okay with that. Nights have been quiet yet cold, and you're getting excited about the temperature change that comes with spring.

Night patrols have been close to uneventful; save a kid or two there, maul a criminal of two here- the usual, in other words.

You're expecting the usual again tonight, just quiet patrolling and nothing extreme-

Look, you haven't been here for long, okay? Optimism, got it?

You're on the prowl for a missing girl, one that the bats no doubt have on their radar too, but you never know- you might get to her first. You went to the apartment where she lives and are confident that you could pinpoint her on her scent alone.

It's been an hour or two since you started looking and finally, you catch a whiff of the little girl's scent. You draw closer to an abandoned building, sneaking through structures to hide from the unforgiving street lights that flicker, forgotten by the city.

You jump onto a dumpster and into a broken window above it, landing quietly on the dusty floorboards. You can hear crying and the little girl's scent gets stronger.

Someone snaps at her as you draw closer, creeping up the stairs to the second floor. Thankful that the floor doesn't creak, you continue through the corridor of apartments, the number of each room fading from their painted places upon doors.

The screaming gets louder until you stop at a door, slightly ajar. You nudge it open with your nose and- you've luck- it's silent too.

"Shut the fuck up, dammit, you'll-"

The man doesn't get much more out of his mouth before you pounce, toppling both of you to the floor. Your fangs lock around his wrist, making him cry out in pain as you reach for the gun in his hand and throw it to the farthest corner of the room.

"Get-"

You snarl, pushing a set of sharp claws into the top of his spine. He yells curses that one should not around a child.

The window shatters beside you and two figures gracefully land in the room, one larger and one smaller by the sound of the thuds. You turn your head to glare, teeth bared and gleaming before you realise it's Robin and Batman- the duo one only fears if they're a criminal in the light of justice.

The man continues screaming, but not after giving one threatening snarl, deeper than any other you ever have.

"Leave the rest of this to us," Robin says calmly, and you're certain you like him more than the brooding knight in the corner near the gun.

He's allergic to those things anyway, so it's not like you're worried.

You step off the man's back and slowly approach the girl. She scrambles back and you remember you have blood still on your fangs. Still, you lower your head and attempt to look as harmless as a big cat can.

You can't grin when she reaches out to pet your head in case she sees your bloodied teeth. Once she realises you won't do her any harm, she scratches your neck and ears. Purring, you nudge her gently and lower yourself to the floor.

She's small enough to climb onto your back without it being too much of a struggle to stand and walk- she must be only five. She giggles, eyes red with tears, but she finds comfort in the warmth of your fur.

"GCPD has been called," the Bat says, glaring down at the criminal. You and Robin do the same. "Would you like us to take the girl to a hospital?"

You raise your head to look at him and flash your fangs, a solid 'no'.

"Whatever you think is best," Robin says, the Bat looking at him with a stare only a father could give to his son. "But wait, before you go-"

Robin smooths the short furs of your head and scratches underneath your ear. It takes you by surprise at first, but you don't snarl or bare your fangs at him, so he continues until he feels as though his father's glare has gone on long enough. "I told my siblings I'd pat you first. It's a bet, the only one I have participated in so far-" Batman snorts- "And I have won. As expected, I have succeeded."

You make a sound of amusement.

"Perhaps we shall work together again," the older of the two says. You huff, knowing you did all of this yourself, but nod anyway.

Perhaps it's time to make some friends -ones that aren't drowning in coffee and assignments, anyway.

Ko-Fi requeest for T! day 50!

(they gave me a couple ideas for the prompt too, one of them being a poetry read! i thought it might be cute if instead of snapping they did like. soft little howls)

The second part was extra as a v fun exercise! I think werewolves in general would have a lot of diversity in style and shifted/half-shifted forms so this gave me an excuse to play around with that :) thought I should include a werehyena bc that's the wolf substitute for the shape-shifters of African folklore (and *jaguars in south america, tigers in India, etc!)

Also in doing a little bit of research for Black werewolf characters I found this super cool werewolf comic I wanted to highlight by Michelin Hess, a Black author/artist! She has other work that you should check out too. In fact, feel free to shout out any of your favorite Black artists in the comments or tags! Or let me know the other ways y'all are celebrating this month :)

Continuation of this one

Sizes

Inspired by @bluegiragi hybrid au and @diejager Only Human Series

Over time you get to see the two newcomers at work and while everyone was busy being possessive and protective over Hunter, you were more curious. However because the team was equally protective over you -seeing you as their young when you’re human- it’s a bit like watching a kid as they play in a non child proof area.

Gaz is watching over both you and Hunter constantly, sticking close to see what you guys are up to while Horangi or König is in the room. Alejandro and Rudy feel like your uncles as they make sure to stop and ask how you are in the hallway, regardless if the KorTac members are nearby. Soap continues his older brother role and has yet to bring up his family getting legal custody over you. The time isn’t right, and he needs to talk to you about it more. His constant presence while sparring is him showing off, like, “this is my pup, proceed with caution”.

You on the other hand, from the teams perspective it’s like watching a kid play on an empty road, they keep an eye on you, but let you do your thing. And your “thing” is watching KorTac. Horangi’s haetae form is different from the two shifters you’re most familiar with, because while it’s mostly tiger there are features you don’t expect. When he finishes a round of sparring with Alejandro you ask him what exactly he is and then ask if you can spar with him next. Alejandro isn’t surprised by your request. He chuckles when Horangi gives you a look.

“You’re sure you want to do that?”

“She’s sure hombre, get back on the mat.” Alejandro says, crossing his arms. Horangi doesn’t like taking orders but gets up and indulges you. He’s actually thrown off by your agility as your strikes move pretty quickly even for him. At first all he does it guard but he soon catches your fist, spins you around and pulls you on to the mat. It knocks the wind out of you, it’s so fast. Alejandro is about to get confrontational when you start laughing.

“That was fun.” You say getting the air back in. Yes you have a tendency to giggle when you go down in training, and smile when you’re exhausted. Horangi can’t help but smile a little before helping you up.

“Can you show me how to do that?” You ask. He may not have signed up for this, but screw it teaching you some tricks couldn’t hurt.

“Colonel, you going to assist?” Horangi taunts to Alejandro.

König watches you from afar for the most part. It isn’t until a tracking session with Rudy and Gaz that he sees you’re not some innocent jackalope who could be snatched up in seconds. The terrain is one you’re used to at this point, with plenty of large trees, small cliffs, and loose ground. There were even some old ruins of previous cabins and shelters nearby which you knew would make for excellent cover.

König is nervous about shifting around you too, worried he might scare you and with two protective hybrids nearby, his mind goes to worst case scenario.

“Do you want me to shift first or do you want to find me as a human?” You ask. König’s thinking comes to a halt hearing you say that, while Gaz and Rudy both look at him waiting for an answer. He didn’t realize you were the one they were tracking. At first he thought he would be the target, larger, easier to find, less stealth. But you?Gaz or Rudy he could expect, but you? You were small sure but not that small. He scratches the back of his head.

“Sh-shifted.” He answers. At least it gives you more of a fighting chance. Then he sees you shift. As a human you’re half his size, looking like a kid next to him but shifted, you’re almost the same size as his Percht form, if only a little smaller. König looks up at you in awe and surprise. You tilt your head at him, while Gaz gets his attention with a pat on his back.

“Come on big guy. Eyes up.” Gaz says teasingly.

“Ve a esconderte, cabo.” Rudy orders and you run off. Despite your size you move quickly, climbs and jumping from tree to tree and ducking behind bushes and over growth, your form fading into the thick forestry. All while moving softly like you’re a part of breeze.

“Geist.” König said. Rudy and Gaz looked at him.

“Say again?” Gaz asked. König realized he had said it out loud.

“Ah…she makes me think of an earth geist.” König said.

The other two hybrids contemplated the idea. Not a bad call sign.

“You’ll have to tell her when you find her.” Rudolfo comments.

“If we find her.” Gaz adds.

They got to work after half an hour, with Gaz sending you a warning of your pursuers. You change the channel on your radio so they couldn’t use it to locate you not that they would. The radios work on one channel so they can find each other better and still be able to communicate over the distance. If they couldn’t find you or there was an emergency the channel would switch accordingly.

König joins alongside Rudy and the cadejos.

“Not changing? Your choice.” Rudy commented.

“I shift when I need to. And I don’t need it for training. I find it exhausting after some time.” König says.

“Gaz how copy.” Rudy radios.

“Still no visual. She’s going hard on this one.” Gaz responds.

“She’s getting better.” Rudy says.

“You usually track children?” König asks. Rudy gives him a look, and König notices how poorly he phrased his question. “Her I mean…o-or uh…apologies.”

Rudy pats him on the shoulder. “Since she became more comfortable around us, si. She became the one we tracked. A good tracker herself but we found she was better at hiding.”

“I see.” König says. There’s a slight jealousy wishing it was as easy for him to hide.

Rudy continues requesting visual updates from Gaz who has little luck.

“I don’t like it but you two may need to split up, cover more ground.” He suggests.

“Copy. The cadejos have different directions.”

“She’s getting smarter.” Gaz comments as he lands to try and look around for you. Rudolfo and König split off searching for you. König thinks for a moment after going for an hour by himself.

“Gaz, any visual?” He asks.

“Negative. At this rate we’ll have to trap her.” Gaz admitted.

“How far can she be ahead of us?” König asks.

“Say about 1 click.”

As if on cue he hears clicking, and his fight or flight reflexes kick in.

“König going dark.” Gaz hears. He can’t get König to respond to him and he starts getting nervous. Training exersices are taken seriously but this may have gone too far. Gaz flies lower to find Rudy, and thankfully he does easily enough. Before he can say anything they both hear loud screeches.

They take towards the noise with the cadejos running up ahead and find you wrestling with a Percht. You’re staying calm, but the Percht is raging at you. It’s only backing off to build up its next strike at you, scratching at your exposed muscles and gnawing at the bark of your limbs. The veil over the monsters face tells you who it is, and all you can do is hold your own. You can smell Gaz and Rudolfo close by and so can König. Your priority is to keep the other two safe. When König tries to turn around and go for them, they both move, taking cover just before König sees them. You move too, and brutally. You’re tired from the hard hits König has dealt, but Kyle and Rudolfo are your friends. Doesn’t matter who it was, you’re ready to defend and protect them the same as they’ve protected and helped you. As the Percht turns away you yank it back by the shoulder. You ram into him, getting your antlers under him and rear up, sending him tumbling behind you. You screech at it. A warning to back off and a challenge to try again. It goes for you and you lock him against you, trying to scratch at its neck, hoping it would get the hint. When König is shifted, he doesn’t have control, his only mindset is kill. As you toss him he tosses you. You claw him he claws you. But if it bites you bite back.

His attacks only continue to get violent even when you try to be defensive. The cadejos try to slow him down, acting as distractions or flanking it with their own bites but it’s proving fruitless. Rudy’s head is starting to ache from it, and Gaz takes to air throwing hardened feathers as projectiles. The thing just screams loud, making everyone’s ears hurt and ring, before you whack him hard, shutting him up. You grip him by the skull tearing off the veil and twisting his neck until the rest of his body follows, getting on top of him. You hold his jaw closed and force him to look at you before screeching yourself, trying to keep him still. If fighting wasn’t going to work, then exhausting him would have to do.

Gaz dives for Rudolfo who is holding his head behind a tree, and lifting him to higher ground. You struggle to keep the Percht still but its movements become fewer and weaker. It doesn’t matter though, you keep him still and don’t loosen until you see dark whisps coming off of him as he passes out beneath you, returning to his human form and you turn to yours. You’re still on top of him when you check his pulse, both of your clothes and gear basically shredded to shit. But you don’t care, panting on top of a passed out König. Gaz and Rudolfo come back down to help you up and help König back to base, with Gaz calling for Hunter to be prepped.

König of course is in a lot of shit because of this. Horangi is being questioned about his hybrid partner and why he would do that. You didn’t encounter König until after he had shifted and you repeated this multiple times that you don’t know what happened. Horangi could only try to side with you as he explained that König wouldn’t shift on a training run. Rudolfo being a the good man he is, mentions König had said the same while they were together.

Despite him giving you multiple injuries you’re still worried about him, and stay by him while he’s resting. Soap is worried about you and the injuries you sustained. Mending broken bones and self healing were a benefit but your healing factors were not instant. Hunter tends to him when she can and makes sure you keep eating.

When König wakes, Horangi tells you right away, and drop whatever you’re doing to go see him. When he sees you though he looks ashamed. He knows what happened and he can’t explain it. He barely remembers shifting. He does remember hurting you though. You insist you’re okay and give him a half a smile. Gaz and Rudolfo aren’t far behind, wanting to check in on König as well. The guy had proven to be a strong asset and your insistence on his character made it hard to argue.

He rests for a couple more days with you checking in on him and seeing how he’s doing. At one point you come over and sit with him and ask why he doesn’t shift. When he mentions losing control and becoming a mindless rampager you think about the night you lost control.

“I become nothing but a monster.” He says, starting to put a new veil on.

“I do too.” He stops and looks at you.

“But you did not.”

“But I have. I’ve lost control and gone on violent binges. I’ve been uncontrolled before…it’s normal.”

There is silence between you two, and he wonders.

“May I see the wendigo? P-please?” He asks. You smile. You enjoy showing people, and shift carefully in the room, not wanting to break something. You lower yourself to all fours, and look at him curiously. König is nervous but hesitantly reaches out to touch your head, with you meeting it halfway. You look back at him while he examines you with his eyes. You make soft clicking noises.

“You really are an earth spirit.” He comments and you make an odd sort of cooing sound mixed with happy clicks. For the first time you see König give a small smile. It’s one you don’t see often, friendly and soft.

König gives his own report saying something had attacked him during their training session, but he was unfortunate enough to not see who or what. Price gives him a warning to be more careful, but you offer to help König train and get more used to the Percht.

Let me know if you want to be tagged in future posts.

Hear me out

Animal shifter au but in a jurassic park setting with the beast pirates

Okay so I’m gonna admit that I have actually never seen the Jurassic Park movies like I think I tried once when I was a kid but I was way too scared of them to ever keep watching it and I’ve just never gone back

But I do know the basic premise like nature park tries to revive dinosaurs and things go horribly wrong, yeah?

Also fun fact! In some scenarios, animal shifters were supposed to be the dominant species of earth but they kind of went into hiding and became a lost myth after humans came around and started doing some crazy shit

Typically animal shifters are just waiting for the exact right moment to strike back against the humans and take the earth back as lord knows that they’ll treat it better…

Anywho let’s get into it! Also my sincerest of apologies if this isn’t as good as you hope it would be!

!-MINORS DO NOT INTERACT AT ALL-!

!-POTENTIAL TRIGGER WARNINGS-!

Stalking, Kidnapping, Forced (?) Pregnancy, Stockholm Syndrome, Unsafe Work Environments, Apocalyptic Scenario, Implied Murder, Violence

!-POTENTIAL TRIGGER WARNINGS-!

!-MINORS DO NOT INTERACT AT ALL-!

So imagine the visual that you’re some kind of person who has managed to land a job at one of the most dangerous but exciting sort of zoos in the world as they’ve managed to bring back the dinosaurs

The job listing states that they need someone to clean things and maybe occasionally play a role in the totally safe dinosaur shows that they put on for entertainment and also occasionally for educating people as well

You were probably reluctant but hey, you need the money and this job pays some good money so what’s the harm in just taking the job for the summer is what you tried to tell yourself at least

First few days go well as you’re mostly just cleaning up around some specific animal areas, you learn some pretty cool stuff about the dinosaurs and even find out that they have some things that were thought to be myths like a giant blue dragon

You even start to like the look of some of the dinosaurs too even if a lot of them just look generally pissed off a lot of the time like you didn’t know it was possible for a triceratops to look both somehow absolutely wasted and angry at his surroundings at the same time

Eventually though after your first week, you’re asked to do an animal show with some of the dinosaurs and this can only go so well is what you think to yourself especially as you’re dressed up in a cave woman’s costume for the show

Basically the dinosaur will be let into the area and it’s your job to get it to move about to do different things for the commentator to tell the audience about like you don’t even realize that you’re being stalked at one point and the commentator is like “Oh! And the great Sabertooth Cat is also an excellent hunter!”

You were told later that the commentator was trying to warn you without scaring any of the guests and causing a commotion…

The shows always got your heart pumping on max speed as these creatures were terrifying like the dinosaur known as Ulti once tried to crack your skull open when she thought that you were getting too close to her brother for her liking

It was just for the summer though and the park would pay you generous bonuses for anytime that you did one of these shows and got hurt, probably to prevent a lawsuit but regardless…

As time progressed though, you found that the animal shows were becoming easier like Who’s Who the Sabertooth Tiger wouldn’t even try to hunt you during shows with you anymore and King was even pretty chill with you as well like he wouldn’t even bat an eye when you stretched out one of his wings to show the audience just how big his wingspan was

You had even done a show with Kaido the Blue Dragon that they had and although you were writing down your will on some stationary in the dressing room before you were set to head out and you headed out into the area and let the commentator introduce you as the brave cavewoman who knew all about dinosaurs

Part of you was just waiting for Kaido to be released into the area so you could be ripped to shreds already as you had heard horror stories about how dangerous that thing was but when the commentator introduced your guest for the day and released the blue dragon

Oddly enough, he didn’t kill you right away like he stared at you for a good while but he didn’t try to burn you alive with his fire breath or even snap his jaws shut on you like the worst thing that he did was growl at you

The commentator instructed you on what to do like “For most people, dragons are simply a legend but they were oh so very real! They even had bigger teeth than any known dinosaur species! How about you show the audience those teeth, brave cavewoman?” and you would have to lift one of his lips in order to show the audience

Your fear was probably obvious to Kaido as you did your thing as he simply just rested his head on the ground to convey that he was bored, it was weirdly like he was trying to reassure you that he wouldn’t kill you almost

Eventually the show ended and you were able to head back into the dressing room and get changed, you took a long deep breath and just laid on the floor for a while to let the adrenaline wear off. Some of your co-workers probably thought that you were dead in all honesty

Luckily as the months pass by, the dinosaurs and even the dragon get closer with you causing the animal shows to go as smooth as they possibly can like the Mammoth known as Jack straight up lifts you up with his trunk at one point during a show and lets you slide down it onto his back. It was like something straight out of a movie but the audience loved it

As for your job where you clean things? That’s the least stressful part of your job and honestly what you far more prefer to be doing as it just entails going around the park and emptying trash cans along with picking up any litter that you might find

Occasionally acting as a guide as well for lost park goers, this part of your job takes you all around the park to almost all of the enclosures. Some of the dinosaurs don’t pay you any mind while the ones that you’ve done shows with typically come up the viewing windows and follow alongside you until you’re out of sight almost like they’re trying to greet you

The only downsides to this part of the job is that when the bathrooms are filthy then it’s your job to clean it up and the occasional rude customer whose complaining for no good reason but that isn’t too bad as you typically wind up never seeing those guests again if it happened outside one of the enclosures oddly enough

It’s towards the end of the summer that something incredibly weird happens though as you are being brought in to do another show as the brave cavewoman but they want you to work with a dinosaur that you’ve had no prior experience with. Can’t be too bad, right? Especially as they say they’ll even let you bring Sasaki in to feel safer as it’s another triceratops!

This dinosaur acts far more like how you would expect a typical dinosaur to act, it’s much more aggressive with you and you find yourself having to dive out of the way more than once to avoid being speared on its horns as the commentator tries to act natural

Sasaki is somewhat being helpful as he is jerking his head at it like he’s trying to command it to calm down but it’s after one of its horns catches you and injuries you, Sasaki is pissed and a fight breaks out between the two triceratops

Chaos ensues and you find yourself in the middle of a dinosaur fight as Sasaki tries to protect you and this other triceratops is just hellbent on hurting you. The guards can’t rush in as that would cause serious panic and that’s the last thing they need but the commentator is clearly worried about your safety

After what feels like hours, you’re saved from the terrifying show and both triceratops are contained to safely be put back in an enclosure. You get your injury all patched up and the park runners agree to take you off dinosaur shows completely but that wasn’t what was weird

What was weird is that the triceratops who hurt you proceeded to completely disappear from it’s enclosure in the middle of the night… It was there before everyone went home and now it was all gone…

The park of course tried looking for it but they could never find it and there were absolutely no signs of escape or footage of any escape on any of the security cameras… It simply vanished without a trace…

Your last bit of time spent at the park was as a cleaner but after the experience at your last dinosaur show, the dinosaurs and dragon that you typically worked with seemed more protective of you now like if you were cleaning around Who’s Who’s enclosure then he would simply chill out where he could see you and if anyone blocked his vision then he would get up to move then chill out again

Ulti even head butted the protective glass once when she saw someone run into you and nearly knock you over, she looked absolutely pissed too like if you could understand what she was saying then you were pretty sure that she would have been cussing out the park goer

However as nice as this job was, everything has to come to an end eventually as your last day working at the park soon arrived and you were given your last bit of pay before you started working for the day

You said goodbye to all of your co-workers as you passed them by but you also went around and said goodbye to all of the dinosaurs as you felt it was polite, a lot of them almost looked shocked and disappointed that you were leaving with King himself even looking incredibly disappointed and almost angry to hear that

Once your shift had ended, your boss had asked you if you could stay just a little bit longer as someone had made an absolute mess of one area of the park and he would gladly pay you extra if you stayed to clean it up

You said yes before seeing it and instantly regretted it as you were there for the rest of the day just sweeping up trash and cleaning all sorts of things that had been spilled

By the time that you were finally done, it was closing time and all of your co-workers went home so you started to head to tell your boss that it was safe to lock up for the night now as you were finished and heading home

He nodded his head saying that he had some things to take care of so he would still be here for a bit and you started leaving, you were honestly going to miss working here but it wasn’t so bad as now you wouldn’t have to worry about heading home

Just as the exit was coming into view though, you saw something out of the corner of your eye and looked over to find that there was a person in the park. Assuming it was an intruder, you tried to scare them off which proved to be a horrible decision

As soon as you had spoke, they looked at you and rushed you. The next thing that you knew, you were unconscious. You expected to wake up somewhere horrible and indeed you did as you woke up inside of what was clearly one of the dinosaurs enclosures

Your heart sank…

You tried to stand up and hoped to find a way out before whoever was in this enclosure found you and decided you were desert, your legs were wobbly with fear but you did your best to walk slowly and hopefully not draw any attention to yourself

You soon found the edge of the exhibit and followed it until you found a door that you could hopefully escape through but before you could even find out if it was locked or not, spider silk suddenly stuck onto you and you found yourself being dragged off into the darkness

It occurred to you that you were in Black Maria’s enclosure who was a prehistoric spider and you knew that death was likely coming soon as you felt yourself be dragged deeper and deeper into the enclosure by the spider silk until you started being lifted

Here it comes is what you though and you felt your body being wrapped up in spider silk except for your head, you were dangled from a tree branch and expected to feel teeth on your head only for nothing to happen other than a chuckle and a command for you to open your eyes

You briefly cracked them open and found yourself face to face with a giant blonde lady whose lower half was a spider… She smiled at you when she saw you and commented on finally being able to see those eyes that she loved so much at night too

Part of you tried to sputter out a question only for your mouth to get covered in webs, she told you to save your questions for when the others got here and they would surely be here soon now that all the humans were gone

Eventually one by one, they all appeared in the enclosure with some of them being normal human size while others were much bigger. They stared at you like you were a piece of meat hanging inside of the window of a butcher shop and you couldn’t stop the fear that came from it

When the woman removed the webbing from your mouth and the man with the horns told you to ask any questions that you have. The first thing out of your mouth was “Who are you?!”

You would have followed it up with an “And what do you want from me?!” but they spoke as soon as you were finished, some of them looked almost offended that you didn’t recognize them and asked if you truly didn’t

You confirmed that they didn’t so they introduced themselves, they told you that they were the dinosaurs that you had been working with for so long while at the park… And when you tried to point out that they couldn’t be that, they suddenly all transformed right before your eyes…

The shock was so immense that sticking a fork in an electrical socket couldn’t compare, you were told what animal shifters were and told that there were animal shifters wandering around even today. It wasn’t just them and a lot of animal shifters typically seek out a human to entertain themselves with

And what do you know? You were perfect and they weren’t going to let you go…

“…Please don’t hurt me…”

“Don’t worry about that… Hurt is the last thing that you’ll feel with us if you’re good…”

And that’s how a new life begins for you as you wind up wrapped completely in spider silk during the day and hung from one of the trees upsidown almost like you’re in a cocoon but come nighttime…

Black Maria takes you down as soon as all of the humans leave the park and the fun begins as the dinosaurs that you once did shows with made you into the main attraction as they would typically fuck you senseless while the others watched

You never quite became an animal shifter like them but after so many days and nights of the same thing, you oddly began to get used to it as the dinosaurs would use your body and entertain themselves with you just about every night after fulfilling your needs

It was starting to become weirdly enjoyable and you looked forward to seeing which dinosaur would be taking you next… It didn’t even occur to you that this could be Stockholm syndrome…

And when the day came that the dinosaurs told you that you wouldn’t have to be in your web cocoon soon anymore as the animal shifters were soon going to take back the world from the humans, you didn’t care

Not in the slightest bit

Not even when they left you hanging in the web cocoon for safe keeping with a promise to come back as you knew that they would…

The humans didn’t stand a single chance after all and soon the world would once again belong to the animal shifters just like they had told you it used to…

So you remained hanging in your web cocoon from one of Black Maria’s trees in her enclosure… Calm, relaxed, and with all of your needs met…

What could possibly make this better? Oh you knew cause what made this all the more better was your stomach

A stomach full of dinosaur eggs…

feel like people are already wondering if future teammates' pets(?) will get along (george and kimi for example - people wonder if the deer and tiger will ignore each other or what...)

Also - geri is an honorary member of the shifter groupchat I don't make the rules

I feel like Danny Ric would've had a quokka gf in an alternate universe

Someone should definitely give Ollie's gf a hug because she's got a sore throat from screaming that her bf is the best bf ever after his Haas points... Also she's the biggest sweet tooth ever like you cannot stop her from eating sweets

Franco's gf (orange cat gf) hisses at people who critic her bf, but she is especially suspicious of James

Oh, and Max's ragdoll gf has adopted Liam (lawson) as her and Max's grid kid. If Charles gets Oscars and Ollie and Leo then Max gets Liam

people may talk, but ultimately, i believe the answer to the first one is definitely. george's gf will start off a little skeptical at first, but quickly becomes fast friends with kimi's gf. she takes over lewis' gf's usual job as the mother of the paddock, and makes sures kimi's gf gets acquainted with massive jump in fame that comes along with the f1 paddock life.

no arguments there! the shapeshifter!gfs all jump at the opportunity to talk to the iconic ginger spice.

haha, when you mention quokka, my mind can't stop replaying that clip when a reporter or something compares yuki to a picture of a quokka at the AUSgp! anyways, according to google, quokkas are known to be friendly, curious, social, and have a perpetual smile. when reading that you CANNOT tell me that that isn't perfectly describing daniel. ughh they'd be the most adorable couple on the grid!!!

while most new wags are more reserved and shy, opting to stand quietly in the garage, ollie’s gf is not afraid to yell herself hoarse during and after the race (nicole sherzinger style). like i can imagine f1tv panning from ocon’s super shy gf standing quietly in este’s paddock area, and then a zoom in shot to ollie’s gf literally leaping up and down and deafening engineers. anyways….the sweet tooth! it def comes with being a bear cub shapeshifter… she has been a victim of kimi’s occasional winnie the pooh jokes one too many times :( referring back to an anon’s thought about bear eyes, ollie’s gf would also use it to her advantage to somehow get herself a billion jars of straight honey??? like ayao will call ollie to the office one day to talk to him about a weird invoice billed to the haas company for a ridiculous amount of honey. ollie walks in with the bear cub clinging to the side of his leg, and it doesn’t take a whole five minutes before ayao has the invoice signed, approved, and sent out on express shipping 😭

franco’s gf is epitome of the screeching, upside-down parabola shaped halloween black cat !!!!! (but in orange) you’ll be lucky if she lets you off with a simple hiss if she hears something even inferencing a critic about franco. if you’re one of the unlucky ones, you better hope you packed a few band-aids!

that’s right! it’s only fit that as a reserve driver in rb’s sister team, liam would be adopted by one of the redbull drivers. you can commonly find max’s gf sitting by liam on the pit wall or in the rb garage when there’s not too much action on track. it’s funny when he makes a quip about max’s accidental wide turn, or raises an eyebrow at a failed overtake when he thinks no one is looking. (she always reports liam’s comments to a disgruntled-looking boyfriend after the race, and giggle as liam adamantly denies doing so. liam can never figure out how max could hear his whispered comments from the garage when max had been racing on the tracks??) it’s not until liam officially becomes a driver for rb when he is let in on the shapeshifting secret. (he got so pissed when he realized that the cat was actually max’s shapeshifting girlfriend) anyways, when race weekends for both drivers start, you can find her campering back and forth from each garage during race day! when she sees liam a looking a little too stressed, she likes to bring him her lighting mcqueen plush from her the redbull garage. during media days, when max is doing an interview, you can find her following liam around the paddock (for protection reasons only, she assures max when he gets a little jelly of all the attention on liam).

Little Shifter (Part 1)

This is incredibly late I’m sorry!! If you think of a better name for this let me know.

THE REQUEST:

(Could you write something like this please? 

Pairing: Little fem powered reader x Wanda maximoff X Natasha romanoff

Prompt: “I feel different, not quite human”

Plot: Little fem reader has been experimented on, granted shapeshifter powers, usually resulting in one of three forms, these being a wolf, a tiger, a lion. Hydra treated the reader like an experiment not knowing about their being a little..

LITTLE SHIFTER! PART 1:

Wanda’s POV

Wanda hummed to herself as she flipped a mickey mouse pancake. The smell of coffee permeated the air, drawing a certain Redhead into the room. The widow was clad in a sports bra and yoga pants, still sweaty from her workout.

“Hey Sweetheart, thanks for making breakfast” Nat said, leaned over to kiss the Witch’s cheek. She looked around while grabbing a glass of water. “Where’s Y/n?” 

“I’m not sure, I thought she was with you. She wasn’t in bed when I woke up”. Wanda 

furrowed her brows. 

Since y/n got rescued from Hydra, she had taken to training with Nat most mornings. It wasn’t that she was a bad fighter, Hydra had just ambushed her while she was Little and there were too many guards for her to handle. It had taken the team a month to find her. She was already a good fighter but all of them would feel more comfortable if she trained even harder. 

Wanda listened for y/n’s thoughts, but they sounded murky and muffled. She couldn’t tell where they were coming from, but she was relieved y/n was within range of her abilities. The two split up to find their girlfriend.

I found her! We’re in the lounge. The widow’s voice sounded in her mind.

Wanda rushed to the lounge as quietly as she could.

–Wanda POV–

I found Nat kneeling in front of a cowering y/n. The avenger had a blanket wrapped around her and over her head. Y/e/c eyes were trained on the redhead, as she rubbed gentle circles on the palm of the hand she wasn’t holding.

“Malysh, can you tell us what’s wrong?”

“Me…I don feel…” the agent huffed and pulled her hand out of the spy’s grasp. She pulled the blanket tighter around herself.

“Malysh if you need to drop it’s okay”

“I don’t feel entirely human” y/n forced out softly, trying to stay big.

“That’s alright delta, we’ll figure it out” I said gently.

“Can we take the blanket off?” Nat asked softly. 

Y/n’s eyes flickered back and forth between us, before nodding hesitantly. Nat gently took the blanket from our girlfriend. I gasped when two lion ears came into view. A mixture of a hum and a muffled squeal came from the widow. Y/n shyly looked up at us, fiddling with her hands. I turned to see Nat grinning behind her hand. 

“My little lion” Nat cooed, she made herself smaller and spoke even softer than she normally did to our little one. She opened her arms,

“It’s okay, mama’s got you.”

I did my best to keep from gaping as y/n seamlessly shifted into a lion cub and leaped into Nat’s arms. The widow squeaked in surprise, but adjusted her grip to hold the excited cub. I shuffled closer and gently ran my hand through her fur, giggling as our lion cub sprawled out across both our laps, purring softly.

Time skip-a few hours later

Nat’s POV

I tried to keep a straight face when I heard quiet steps behind me as I entered the kitchen. Y/n was slowly stalking me in cub form, she had yet to change back, and Wanda was currently talking to most of the team. The goofball clearly thought she was being sneaky when she wiggled out of the witch’s arms when we parted ways. 

I continued looking in the fridge pretending not to notice. Everything happened too quickly for me to react. Y/n went to pounce on my leg just as Clint walked in -letting out a loud scream at the sight of y/n. Y/n startled, abruptly shifting into an adult lion. I grunted as she knocked me to the ground. Clint pulled his arrows out and released one as I screamed and shut my eyes on instinct.

The room was still and silent. My heart hammered as I slowly opened my eyes to a red haze.

The arrow was frozen in a cloud of red and I sighed in relief. Wanda glared at Clint as she quickly moved in between us.

Bare skin replaced fur and I looked up to meet y/n’s guilty panicked gaze. She scrambled off me.

“I’m so sorry Natty” she whimpered, as I rubbed my head and sat up with a wince.

“Babe it’s ok-” Y/n stumbled onto her feet and sprinted out of the room before I could finish my sentence.

“WHAT THE FUCK CLINT?!” Wanda bellowed. 

“How was I supposed to know that was y/n?!” He spoke defensively.

I sighed as I took in his attire, he was still in mission clothes.

“Wands he didn’t know”, I said as Clint helped me up. 

“I’m sorry guys, I’ll walk Nat to the med bay-maybe you should find y/n?” He said hesitantly, slightly hiding behind me. Wanda was still glaring at him with red wisps around her hands. She flicked out her hand sending Clint smacking face first into the couch.

I held back a laugh “Baby! Go find y/n/n!” 

Wanda smirked before leaving the room.

“You could have scolded her” Clint mumbled and I smacked him on the back of the head.

“Shut up! You got off easy! You tried to shoot the love of our life with an arrow! Now let’s go to the med bay.”

“I might need it now too…”

“Clint when my head stops hurting I’m gonna kick your as-“

“Okay okay I’ll stop”

To be continued…

What did y’all think?!

D&D AU Headcanons

Ragatha has become very in-tune with being a werebear. She’s adapted and grown to accept it as a part of herself.

Pomni, on the other hand, has not adapted to being an Aberrant Horror. How could she? It’s a horrible existence.

She’s often in pain and is almost always uncomfortable. Because retaining her humanoid form is a constant struggle. Her body is always fighting against itself, both to transform into its true form and to stay in humanoid form.

It’s Not Very Fun.

Zooble is the group protector. They’re so protective, but they’ll never admit it.

Ragatha once got hit by a silvered weapon, which hurts her Real Bad, and Zooble maimed the guy who attacked her.

They often opt to keep watch at night when the party isn’t staying in a building.

On the other hand, Ragatha is the group mom ofc.

She’s a werebear. A literal mama bear.

She always makes sure everyone eats when they’re camping while traveling.

People can ride on her back in werebear form.

Sometimes she’ll pick Pomni up by the scruff (collar of her shirt) and carry her around like that, and Pomni is just like a limp cat. She accepts it.

Kinger loves to prune Ragatha’s wings. It’s very relaxing for both of them. He’s so gentle.

He also offers to prune Pomni’s wings (which she has from being an Aberrant Horror, but they’re absorbed into her skin and only come out when she chooses to grow them), but she usually declines because they don’t have much to prune, seeing as they’re made of flesh and sinew. He respects her boundaries and doesn’t push it.

Because she’s a lycanthrope, Ragatha constantly risks going on a rampage when in her bear form. But again, she’s learned to tame her rage, and it rarely ever happens.

(Fun Fact: game mechanically-wise, she has a +9 to her Wisdom Saving Throw, so she actually cannot go on a rampage ever because even on a Nat 1, she still beats the DC, which is a 10.)

Ragatha constantly has Mending prepared for when Gangle’s mask gets broken.

As an Aberrant Horror, Pomni has the ability to mutate her arms into giant bone spikes (among other abilities), but she doesn’t do it very often because it’s freaky and gross, and she doesn’t want to scare off her buddies.

The first clip of this video but with Pomni.

Innkeeper: does your cat child need a booster seat?

Ragatha: my cat child??

Innkeeper: yes, the cat child with the tiger ears

Ragatha: no, no, no, no, this is actually a Shifter. it’s an adult woman.

Ragatha: this is an adult woman you’re looking at.

Ragatha: you’re looking at an adult woman Shifter.

Pomni doesn’t usually wear shoes because of her animal nature, but Ragatha makes her when she’s going inside, usually more fancy or important buildings.

Jax is constantly almost getting them arrested/kicked out of places because he won’t stop stealing shit.

Ragatha’s wings are rated E for everyone. If anyone is cold, they can curl up in them. If it’s raining, she’ll open them over the heads of the others. She’ll use them as shields for the others, too.

If it’s REALLY cold, she’ll go into her werebear form and just let everyone cuddle around her in her fur.

Pomni holds and squeezes her tail when she’s anxious.

Jax wears this metal point on the tip of his tail that he pokes the others with, well aware that it hurts.

Pomni chuffs like a tiger.

HEHEHEH ASK AND I SHALL DELIVERRR

It too a while for the crew to get used to Zoro just… head butting them. Not even just in his Tiger form, his human form as well. He would randomly walk up to someone, and aggressively shoulder or nudge someone with his head (as cats are prone to do). It was quite startling the first time it happened, and Nami was the first. Let’s just say, if everyone wasn’t already awake, they sure as hell would be with Nami’s scream.

Once Chopper got used to being arOUND A PREDATOR, the two quickly bonded over their shared experiences of social isolation due to their species. It got to the point where their bond was so close, it could be equated to a father/son relationship.

He does actually communicate a lot. Just in sounds. At a pitch humans can’t hear. It’s one of the few things he’s oblivious to; Zoro just assumes everyone hears and doesn’t care.

Zoro’s social perception? Outstanding. He can analyse a situation down to the tiniest detail, and reads the room by like a boss. His bedside manner, though, could do with some work. He is so blunt, it’s physically painful to experience.

They had to install a dust bath for him, and they realised it got the blood off of both his and Choppers fur far easier than a bath would.

For reasons that should be obvious, they then had to install an air shower.

Zoro loves eyeshadow, and is surprisingly good with makeup. Robin and Nami often let him do them up if they have to go anything important

He and Sanji have become the ships stylists. Maybe this is because no one wants to say no to the massive green tiger and his boyfriend, although they are admittedly good

Zoro (in Tiger form) can’t get through quite a lot of doorways, as he is BLOODY MASSIVE. 6ft at the shoulder, he isn’t exactly small

Perona’s shovel talk for the crew (“if any of you dare hurt my baby brother, I will [redacted]”) when Zoro joined was… quite the spectacle. Mihawk almost laughed, while Usopp almost wet himself.

Mihawk adopted both Zoro and Perona, as they are both Tiger shifters like him. He didn’t want them going through what he did (Zoro was adopted shortly after Kuina’s death).

Mihawk can shift into a melanistic tiger with an almost lion like mane, that is slightly smaller than Zoro. Perona can shift into a much smaller, hot pink tiger (with white stripes, for some reason). Although she is smaller than her brother and father, she is still much larger than a normal tiger. The three of them all have the same yellow eyes with the black rings (Mihawk just doesn’t bother hide it in his human form)

Zoro can and will tear things apart with his teeth, even in human form. It was… quite disconcerting when he ripped out someone’s throat in front of everyone for the first time

And even worse when he lost control of his instincts, and attempted to full on eat someone. It wasn’t technically cannibalism, but the crew was still quite uncomfortable being alone around him for a while after that

Desires affection. Do not give him affection. He will make you give it to him anyways.

Sanji can’t say no to this man. Not even for romantic reasons, Zoro just has very good puppy dog (kitty cat?) eyes

THAT IS SO CUTE. i know exactly what you mean, and nami probably thought he was picking a fight at first until he walked away and she was like ????$38;?;?//(353 and then he turns back like “…what 😐”  he’s not very tactile unless someone else initiates so this is def what he does to show affection 

I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS zoro’s his father at this point. they probably communicate without words and it creeps the rest of the crew out a little but it’s their thing

on that note. he definitely communicates but it’s all subsonic; he probably growls something at sanji while they’re at a stakeout and the cook still moves to go forward and zoro has to scruff him by the collar like “what did i JUST say. i told you there was danger—” and sanji’s like “you didn’t say anything???” 

his compartmentalisation is bonkers good. he rarely forgets things, if ever, and he’s very very tactical; but yeah, he does not pull his punches. no tact whatsoever. if you look ugly he’s gonna tell you straight to your face and then send you off to sanji for help. 

THIS IS SO FUNNY BCS THEY WOULD ESSENTIALLY HAVE TO BUILD HIM A SANDPIT. IMAGINE “oh yeah we just had a sandpit built for our tiger on board”. the strawhats baffle people on a regular basis and enjoy it immensely.

the first time they used the dust bath they were quarantined there until franky finessed a vacuum into a makeshift air shower. sanji was Not about to get bathing sand in his expensive shoes. 

OH THE INCREASED AGILITY DEFINITELY PLAYS INTO THIS he has really steady hands and coupled with sanji letting zoro practice on him? the girls trust him implicitly. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO BRAID TOO BECAUSE PERONA MADE HIM LEARN

oh please sanji is a fashion diva. look at him. he knows how to dress all of them to emphasise their best features. he commissions formal attire for the whole crew. the strawhats will never be caught slacking or not slaying. AND SANJI CUTS THEIR HAIR TOO

oh my goodness what if for whatever reason his muscle mass didn’t translate? like at the beginning, he hadn’t shifted for so long that in tiger form his physique deteriorated and they all think he wouldn’t be able to fit through the doorway but it’s all just fur. after that sanji made it his personal mission to make sure zoro was hanging around in his shifted form more and also made sure to kept him fed AND NOW HE’S BULKED UP AND GETS STUCK ALL THE TIME but they really can’t be mad about it because it’s better than when he was borderline malnourished

usopp PLEAse just don’t yank on his tail and you’ll be FINE. mihawk was secretly so proud of perona you can’t tell me he wasn’t

ADOPTIVE DAD MIHAWK MAKES A REAPPEARANCE!! YES!! also,,, how common are we making tiger shifters,,, bcs what if they’re actually pretty rare and he finds these two cubs on their own and he’s like ok. i dont care you’re My kids now

they’re such a terrifying family. they’re all menaces. zoro and perona take after mihawk in their own ways but they’re all horrible i love them

it probably happened because luffy or sanji was in danger. he didn’t think, just lunged, and he knows the crew’s startled but at least they’re all okay so he doesn’t regret it

…now THIS one he regrets. kinda want to write a drabble for this bcs the angst potential is DELICIOUS. i haven’t angsted zoro nearly enough yet hehehehehehe 

he’s so touch-starved my GOD. he wants attention? ear scratches? belly rubs? he headbutts you with a VENGEANCE and almost bowls you over. thats how he makes sure to get your attention. he’s so silly 

OOOH THIS ONE he gives sanji the big eyes and the gentle headbutt and a quiet “mrrp” and sanji is GONE.

i am eating this UP anon. he’s the literal definition of a danger kitty i love him

💜 How Eclipsa and Globgor Met Headcanons ❤️

💜 Original headcanons 🍫

♠️ Ao3 version 🌹

• So, they met in Eclipsa’s rose garden.🌹🥀

• The poofy, teal-haired girl was happily picking roses and placing them in her handmade wooden basket to make a beautiful bouquet later on. 💐

• She suddenly stops when she spots a monster with red skin covered in darker red tiger-like stripes, long white hair tied into a topknot, four eyes, pointy ears, short horns, and fanged teeth roaming around her garden with an angry expression on his face.

• Now, being the monster friendly princess she was, Eclipsa immediately rushed over to greet him.

• Globgor was initially cold (and sometimes even hostile at times), but became much warmer and friendlier over time due to Eclipsa.

• Their meeting was somewhat similar to Star’s and Marco’s in Episode 1 “Star Comes To Earth”.

• Eclipsa came off as a very friendly and energetic girl who was also a little childish. However, Globgor starts off with wanting nothing to do with her, finding her behavior annoying but also adorable without admitting it.

• When Globgor explains to Eclipsa that he’s eaten countless mewmens before in the past and won't hesitate to eat her if needed, Eclipsa simply gives a giggle at the monster's threat, not taking it seriously in the slightest. “Oh no, I’m soooo scared~." He was too adorable.

• Eclipsa really liked him! She liked him so much that she suggested that the two of them meet again, but this time in secret.

• Globgor was beyond flushed by Eclipsa’s offer to meet again. He tends to scare people off, so the fact that a mewman wanted to see him again really caught the size-shifter off guard.

• He decides to accept the offer not because he likes her (we all know he does), but because she asked so nicely. He meets up with Eclipsa more and more in the rose garden.

• They spend long hours talking about things they like and have joke contests to see who will laugh first.

• When wanting to hold hands with him, Eclipsa will say, "Will you be a dear and hold this for me?" and offers him her hand.

• Eclipsa’s light flirting made the red monster even redder.

• Eclipsa taught him how she made rose bouquets and was touched when Globgor made one for her! 🌹

• Globgor didn’t understand Eclipsa’s obsession over snooker bars, but boy did he find it adorable when the princess’s eyes lit up with excitement everytime she devoured the chocolate candy.🍫

•They have romantic rose garden dinner dates under the stars.🌹⭐

• Under the night sky, the two share a slow dance and kiss.

• They eventually fall in love and start secretly dating.

• Eclipsa fell in love with Globgor’s sweet side, and Globgor fell in love with Eclipsa’s kindness.

• Eclipsa decides to take her monster boo up to her room to show him her rockin’ new guitar that she made the other day out of nothing but skeletons!💀🎸

• One day, Eclipsa is playing a rock song on her guitar while Globgor watches in amazement and cheers her on. Solaria (with an extremely long neck) comes in and stares angrily at Eclipsa, who's quietly reading a book. Stretching her long neck, Solaria hovers over Eclipsa. Eclipsa, looking up from her book, happily waves at her mother. Solaria smiles and leaves. As soon as she’s gone, Eclipsa gives a signal to Globgor that the coast is clear and he comes out from hiding inside Eclipsa’s closet. The two then start laughing.

• In an emotional scene, when Globgor asks his girlfriend why she would date a dangerous mewman eating monster like him, Eclipsa is a bit taken aback by this question, but she relaxes with a smile. “You’re incredibly kind, Globgor, and you've changed. You're not dangerous. You wouldn't hurt a fly. You’ve just been hurt so many times by people who look like me.”

[titans-kanza]

Was surprised that you would want to here the story but here you go mind the warnings though Warning ‼️ ⚠️ cannablilism abuse and death and worse of all bad grammar ⚠️‼️

AU where animal shifters are legally seen as animals not humans they have no human rights animal shifters can’t stay human forever they have to regularly shift into there animal form or partly with ears and tail otherwise it causes physical harm

White tiger Levi Ackermans story

For those who don’t know Levi and Kuchel ackerman are characters from attack on titan not created by me

White tigers are bred in captivity so it’s no surprise that levi was born in a circus the greedy circus people wanted the animal shifters instead of animals because they are easier to train and keep alive they would use cruel punishments such as shock collars whips and jabbing with sharp sticks to get the animal shifters to do dangerous tricks like jumping into a hoop of fire or jumping off a plank too high into a small pool of water levi made a plan in secret with other shifters as more of them arrived the circus people wanted more animals to bring in more money but that would be there down fall one day they just needed an opportunity but before one came Levi’s mother kuchel was forced into the ring to preform a jump through a hoop of fire Levi begged to take her place the hoop was too small for her to go through but with the shock collar and the forceful jabs she was forced to jump and it was chaos kuchel in her panic to put out the flames set fire to the tent the tamer kept pressing that button to get her to stop running people were grabbing buckets of water one of them dropping the keys in the process no one noticed till it was too late that the shifters escaped the cages and the shifters mauled everyone while Levi tried to save his mother but it was too late with her weak old heart the flames and collar she suffered from a heart attack and died levi decided to never let this happen to anyone else ever again when all the circus people were dead levi decided that they would take the circus as there own and turn it into a sanctuary for shifters like them they fixed up the tent and renamed the circus kuchels circus they would still have play circus to keep the humans off there tail being able to shift regularly levi would be the human ring leader and everybody would have a human job when they can shift into there human form and when they needed to shift back they would preform safe tricks like balancing on a ball any humans that caught wind of there operations would be taken out and they would move the circus to another town what to do with the bodies well most of the shifters have not eaten in days or weeks and humans taste a lot like veal if the circus ever ran low on funds some shifters would go hunt after dark kill someone who had it coming and drag them down to the circus to have there flesh feasted on and their valuables taken the circus thrived for years moving around entertaining humans taking in shifters and taking out the curious humans who dared stick their noses where they don’t belong.

Hybrid/shapeshifter golden tiger reader as a vigilante with batfam? I really love your writing :0

They're so PRETTY how did I not know they existed before???? Also I love shifter fics bc who doesn't

Masterlist

Part Two

Golden

Being a shifter is bad in this day and age, at least until the shifter is mature enough to shift on command. Before then, young shifters can shift with any strong emotion, especially negative ones like anger and fear.

Most shifters mature when they turn into adults, which means they're either taught to become temporary psychopaths or are homeschooled until they're mature enough.

You, like many shifters, were the latter. Now that you're in university and studying biology, living in your own apartment states away from your parents, you're free. So incredibly free.

Free to be you, free to talk to people who interest you, and free to fight the lowly criminals of Goth- wait, what?

It was an accident, you swear. You couldn't bear to hear that poor little girl's blood-curdling screams (you hadn't understood what the phrase meant before, but you sure do now) any longer, so you shifted and almost, but not quite, mauled the man to death.

"Pretty kitty!" she had called you, and from then on you vowed to look after the young kids of Gotham, especially when going to and coming from school as well as at night (if you weren't studying). Sometimes you simply lay in the bushes of a park and watched over the kids as they played on the playground.

They remained your main focus (though you did save others, you mostly watched over the young children) even when the press got wind of the golden tiger shifter vigilante. "Golden" is what they called you, and it was certainly better than other names the press had given vigilantes before.

The local bat population had gotten word of your existence beforehand and had tried to even just get a glimpse of you, but you were too quick. After the press got wind, they amped up their efforts.

You've decidedly had enough of your studying and walked out of your apartment, climbing into the window of an ashy-smelling abandoned building, the charcoal staining your fingers as you moved into the dark to shift.

One could guess what happened to the building, but it didn't have anything to do with a golden tiger climbing out its window on a cool early spring night, the snow thawing slower than usual. There weren't many people on the streets at this hour which you were glad for.

You take your normal route today, going through the less fortunate neighbourhoods where kids are most commonly found. Slushy snow drenches your paws in cold water as you leap onto the next roof and climb down the stairs on the side of the building.

There's a bundle of blankets placed gently into a plastic bucket. You nudge the bundle with your nose gently and when the wailing begins you huff. Another abandoned baby; it's the third one this month. A mother you can't afford a child or is scared for the child's safety when it comes to the father.

Your teeth close around the bucket and you begin carrying the baby to the hospital in Crime Alley, a long trek from where you picked the baby up.

You hear something. Whispers. Your ears rotate to find the source of the sound which would be impossible for a human to hear.

"That's the tiger?"

"No shit," the second voice hisses, much older than the first. "What else could it be? A cow?"

"Whatever," the first one replies. "What do we do? Think that's a baby?"

"Probably. I say we take the baby and bring it to the hospital."

You turn your head to where the sound is coming from, impeccable vision allowing you to see Robin and Red Hood perched on a building above you.

"What about the- how good is a tiger's hearing?"

You do trust these vigilantes but not more than you trust yourself. You flick your tail and continue walking, a few corners from the hospital. The sound of their grappling hooks as the vigilantes follow you are only able to annoy you.

There's the hospital, just at the end of the street. You take no more than two steps before Red Hood steps out in front of you. You aren't surprised as you could hear him the entire time.

"Can I have the baby?" He asks, hand outstretched as he gestures for you to hand it over.

Your eyes narrow and you turn to see Robin behind you.

"It'll be easier for me to get it to the hospital," he explains. "They won't react calmly to a tiger carrying a baby."

He had an unfortunately valid point. The other times where you'd brought a baby into a facility, people freaked out.

Reluctantly, you gently place the bucket on the cold pavement and step back, letting the vigilante pick it up.

As Red Hood takes the baby to the hospital, you turn fully to face Robin. He's short and you reach up to the start of his ribcage.

"You're not an easy tiger to locate," he says. "It takes a few idiots."

You make a sound akin to a laugh, turn your head and vanish into the alleyway beside you.

Robin curses himself for not getting to pat the tiger. He'll be damned if his siblings get to first.

A/N: My first submission for @choicesprompts Smutember Prompt Event. Prompt: Teeth and Claws.

A/N: I hope no one gets confused between this one and the other dark AU I have going right now, The Dark Kingdom. This one, Dark Elf is the one where Riley is a demon here to sacrifice Hana so Liam can achieve immortality.

Shout out to @aussiegurl1234 for pre-reading and giving me suggestions to amp the physicality of this interaction.

My other stuff: Master List.

Drake pushed away from the wall when the dinner guests stood to leave. He was at Riley’s side before she had moved away from the table.

She tipped her head back and gave him that smile again. The one that sent unfamiliar but not unwelcomed sensations crashing through his body and clouding his mind. “Well, hello again.” She simpered.

“Are you ready to return to your room?”

She walked her fingers up his arm, “Actually I was thinking about a walk in the gardens.”

His body didn’t move but his pupils dilated, “I’ll take you.”

She opened her mouth to respond, but before she could, Liam was suddenly there, pushing his way between them, “That won’t be necessary.”

“But..” confusion pulled Drake’s brows together, “You told me to keep an eye on her!”

“Yes, when I’m not around. But I’m here now,” his voice held an edge as he pulled her away from her guard, “I’ll escort her to the gardens.”

“Oooooh!” Riley clapped her hands in excitement, “Are you two about to fight over me?”

“Of course not!” Liam snapped in annoyance as he made a show of straightening his tie, “There are simply things we need to discuss.”

“Too bad,” Riley said with a pout, “I love a good fight!”

“Yes, well…” Liam’s eyes flicked to Drake then back to Riley. Elves were strong, but he had no desire to engage in a physical altercation with a shifter. Especially a tiger.

“Maybe later?” She purred as she leaned into him.

“He wouldn’t fight me if I tried,” Liam smirked at her, “he’s loyal to a fault.”

Riley’s gaze slid to Drake in contemplation, “You okay with him treating you like a lap dog?”

They both spoke at once, “He doesn’t!”

“That is a completely unfair characterization!”

“Okay…” She looped her arm through Liam’s, “The gardens?”

Drake moved to follow them.

Liam looked back, “What are you doing?”

“My job is to keep you safe, and now her too.”

Liam considered that for a moment, “Fine. Come. But keep back a distance.”

As they exited the dining room, Riley looked back at Drake, “Woof, woof.”

He stiffened momentarily but betrayed no other emotion as he followed them out the door…at a respectful distance.

Riley found herself relaxing as they strolled through the garden paths. Leaning her head back to gaze at the stars, she sighed, “It’s beautiful here.”

Liam looked at her quizzically, “Cordonia?”

Her features were soft for once as she answered him, “The mortal realm.”

Butterflies exploded in his chest as he drank in her expression, unguarded, genuine, beautiful. If he wasn’t careful, he could forget everything he knew about demons, toss caution to the wind and lose himself in the pursuit of this woman.

Why didn’t she want him? By all accounts he was desirable. Handsome, charming, wealthy, humorous, good in bed…. Not that she would know that. He needed her to open up to him. Perhaps a personal question would do the trick, “Have you ever been here before? Or have you always lived in…” he trailed off as he searched for the right word.

“Hell? The underworld? The nether regions? The abyss? Hades? Tophet? The pit? The inferno? Perdition?”    

“Yes, Naraka.”

“Naraka? Impressive, halfling. Someone has taught you well.”

“Knowledge is its own kind of power. So?”

“I’ve been to the mortal realms before.” She offered no further explanation.

They were interrupted by a woman’s voice, “Riley, is that you?”

Hana and Rashad appeared as two paths intersected each other. Rashad bowed slightly in Liam’s direction, “Pa’ti.”

“A’carya,” Liam bowed back.

Rashad inclined his head toward Drake in greeting, “D’hala.”

“A’carya,” Drake answered back.  

Riley was trying to pay attention to the relationships revealed through the use of official Elven titles, Pa’ti was master or leader, A’carya was the official title for teacher and D’hala loosely translated to shield, guard, or protector.

She was distracted when Hana pulled her into a tight hug. The woman smelled like ambrosia and Riley felt the heat that always boiled inside her, cool, and the churning waters calm as little bits of heaven floated from the other woman’s very being and settled comfortingly around Riley.

This was dangerous.

She was here to sacrifice this woman. It was part of the terms of the blood oath she had sworn when she entered into the agreement with the elf. Why did her touch invoke feelings of bliss, happiness, comfort, and belonging? “What are you?” She whispered.

“What?” Hana drew away with a tinkling laugh, “Riley, you’re so funny!”

Riley inhaled again, as her eyes traveled along Hana’s form, trying to discern if she was something more than human.

Seemingly oblivious to the scrutiny, Hana touched her arm as she asked, “Have lunch with me tomorrow?”

“Certainly,” Riley agreed in bemusement.

They parted ways with the other couple and continued their walk. Riley toyed with the serpent-shaped cuff on her right arm thoughtfully. She wasn’t at full power; she had been robbed of most of her demonic senses. She was sure if the cuff were removed she would be able to figure out what Hana was.

As if reading her mind, Liam slipped an arm around her waist, tugging her closer to his side, as he whispered against her ear, “It’s almost over. The full moon is in three days' time. Once the ceremony is performed, you’ll be free again.”

She stopped walking and turned in his arms. Running a hand down the side of the face, she asked, “Whatever shall I do to stay occupied in the meantime?”

Warmth flowed off her fingertips and sent electricity dancing along his skin. His other arm slid around her as he pulled her tighter against him. What could it hurt? The cuff and the oath guaranteed she couldn’t hurt him even if she wanted to. It wasn’t wise to trust a demon, but this one was properly restrained. And she did things to his body that had never been done before. Strong magic flowed between them every time they touched as if their respective powers were living things, drawn to each other and it was getting harder to ignore. Surely, she felt it too. He leaned his forehead against hers, “I have ideas.”

“What ideas would those be, my darkling prince?” She pressed her body into his as her fingers glided through his hair.

“Come back to my room with me and I’ll show you…please…”

It was the please that did it. She had grown accustomed to his heavy-handedness, to his propensity to bark orders, to his infuriating belief that he was in charge. She acquiesced with a warning, “I do bite just so you know.”

A low moan escaped him, “I’m counting on it.”

He released her from his embrace and took her hand, turning to lead them back to the palace. Drake watched them approach, his eyes fixed on Riley.

As they drew alongside Drake, Liam stopped and told him, “You’re no longer needed tonight. Go back to your quarters, and get some sleep. Resume guard duty outside her room first thing in the morning.”

Drake pulled his eyes reluctantly from Riley. With a slight bow to Liam, he replied, “Yes, Pa’ti, tomorrow.” Then he spun on his heel and was gone.

There was no pretense as they entered his room. He slammed the door shut with one hand while grabbing her arm with the other. Before she could react, he spun them both and slammed her body into the wall, one hand tugging at her hair as his lips claimed hers.

Riley responded by sinking her teeth into his bottom lip and yanking his hair as hard as she could before bringing her knee up and wedging her leg between them. She gave a powerful kick that sent him stumbling away from her.

He grabbed at his lip and looked back at her in confusion, “I thought you wanted this.”

“I do,” she laughed as she swayed seductively toward him, “I thought you said you liked it rough.”

“Mmm,” he nodded as he licked the blood from his lip, “That’s how it’s going to be. All right then, let’s play.”

She reached for him, but he lowered his head and rushed her, knocking her off her feet and slinging her over his shoulder. He crossed the room and threw her onto the bed.

She bounded quickly to her feet, and delivered a stinging slap across his face before grabbing both cheeks in her fingers and pinching, hard, “You think you can tame a demon, halfling?”

“I think I already have,” he hissed as he ripped the dress from her body and let his eyes devour her nakedness, “And I think you like it.”

She leaned forward and ripped his shirt open, shoving it down his shoulders as her tongue drew a line from the hollow of his throat up his neck to lick around the shell of his ear before biting down on the lobe hard enough to nearly sever it, “Have you?”

“Fuck!” Instead of jerking away, he leaned into her as she sucked the blood from his ear and then moved to lap it from his lips. His cock sprang to life as her tongue slowly licked his mouth clean.

Magic clouded the room, thick and almost tangible as his energy and hers flowed in and out of the other, looping through both bloodstreams and amping both sets of hormones. 

He growled as he spun her around and forced face down onto the bed. Using his foot to spread her legs apart, he fumbled at his zipper.

With a laugh, Riley rolled easily away from him. Before he could react, she was behind him, her teeth digging into the back of his neck. He went still as she nipped small bite marks into his flesh, moving upward until her lips were against his ear, “If anyone’s going to be thrown down on the bed and taken, it’s you, my prince.”

She shoved him hard enough to send him sprawling face-first on the bed and then climbed on top of him, straddling the small of his back. Her nails ran down his back gently at first then hard enough to leave angry red welts in their wake.

He tried to flip over but she placed a hand on each side of his upper back and pressed him into the bed as she leaned forward and used her teeth, fangs still retracted, to nip and bite her way across the smooth hardness of the musculature of his back.

His struggles to regain dominance belied the soft whimpers of pleasure emanating from his throat. He gasped as her teeth tore his flesh, his cock throbbing into the mattress beneath him. Her mouth covered the back of his body in teeth-shaped bruises from his neck down to his thighs, each little bite sending shockwaves of ecstasy crashing through him until he was panting for breath and no longer struggling beneath her.

She pushed his legs apart and brought her mouth to the tender underside of his balls, her tongue stroking long, warm lines along it.

“Goddamn it!” He roared as he finally flipped himself over, frantic desire coursing through him. He needed to be inside her, and he needed it now.

He scrambled onto his knees and jerked her further onto the bed, spinning her as he did so. His hands tore at the waistband of his pants as his eyes swept down her body, naked and sprawled out before him like the offering it was.

She sat up with a smile of amusement and reached for his pants, “Having trouble? Let me return the favor.”

Ignoring the fastenings, she tore his clothes from his body and then pulled him down on top of her.

His hand shot out to grab her by the throat as he brought his lips to hers in a brutal kiss. Her legs wrapped around his waist, drawing him closer as his mouth moved from hers, his body sliding downward so he could lavish attention on her perfectly rounded breasts. He palmed one as he pulled the puckered nipple of the other between his teeth.

Her fingers pressed into him, nails scratching a bloody trail from his shoulders to the small of his back.

His pupils were completely lust-blown when he lifted his head to gaze into her eyes, his desire so thick he almost couldn’t breathe. His breathing was heavy, and his voice ragged as he panted, “Riley…”

She wrapped herself around him and then flipped them both, so she was straddling him. She ran a finger down the side of his jaw, “Don’t worry my darkling prince, I know what you want and I’m going to give it to you.”

She lowered herself onto him and slid herself slowly up and down his shaft, ignoring his attempts to force a faster pace, until he cried out in frustration.

“Please…” he breathed out.

She subtly gave in, matching the rhythm he wanted.  

Sweat covered him as he thrust upwards into her, his fingers digging into her hips as he quickened their pace. Their bodies moved together in a perfect rhythm, each delicious collision sending jolts of magically charged electricity through them both.

His body lifted upward as hers crashed down, his lips parted as his glazed eyes watched her move on top of him, her body a work of art, the sounds issuing from her throat musical.

Suddenly, she stilled on top of him.

His fingers dug in deeper as he stared up at her in confusion, his lust-clouded brain unable to process the interruption, “Why are you stopping?”

“I want your blood, Liam.”

“Take it,” he whispered hoarsely, “Just don’t stop what you were doing.”

“You have to say it.”

“Say what?” He blinked up at her.

She started moving on top of him again, with excruciating slowness, “That you give it willingly.”

His eyes fell closed as he turned his head to the side with a whisper, “I give it willingly.”

A triumphant grin twisted her lips as her fangs slid out. She leaned forward and sank them into his jugular, the sweet saltiness of his blood exploding into her mouth as she ground herself against him.

A psychic link exploded into being as his life force spilled into her mouth, blissful surrender sweeping through both of them as carnal pleasure was heightened by the vampire venom in the victim and by the blood lust in the vampire.

Both could feel their own pleasure as well as the pleasure of the other, the merging of his desire and hers combined with the euphoric rush of the bite itself.

He tasted amazing. His blood was sweeter than anything she’d ever experienced. She drank deeply as he propelled himself into her over and over again.

Blood, heat, desire, sweat, and adrenaline rushed together as their bodies resumed the fever pitch their mutual need had driven them to. They clung to one another desperately as they rode the crest of ecstasy until it crashed into the shore, wave after wave washing over and through them as the rest of existence bled into nothingness. There was only the two of them, only this moment, only her fangs buried in his body and his cock pulsing deep inside of hers. His blood filled her mouth as his cum filled her center and there was nothing else.

She stopped before she drained him. His death wasn’t the goal. She withdrew her fangs and licked the puncture wound, the anticoagulants in her saliva stopping the flow of blood and closing the wound.

Licking her lips as she moved to lay on the mattress next to him, she inhaled his scent deeply, “I never knew elves tasted so good.”

“Maybe it’s just me.” He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her close against his body with a contented sigh.

She snuggled into his side with the taste of his blood on her tongue and the thrill of victory in her soul.

His blood and his magic were now coursing through her veins. He had no idea the power he had just given her.

ferals and ethereals was one of the (many) sangyao threads that got kicked in the shins by annoying twitter changes happening right smack in the middle of updates.

long story short (yes this is the short version), most of the sects are fae-like ethereals with unicorn-shifters being the only animal-ish type among them, while the nie is the only sect of ferals (bear-shifters, tiger-shifters, assorted other critters) which the others see as brutish upstarts.

for decades, there's been a sort of stalemate because the nie sect has taken in enough other ferals that even though the other sects have stronger magic, the nies are just too numerous to kill off.

enter huaisang, the only known product of a mixed feral/ethereal pairing, who was raised in protective isolation by his mother and thus thinks something's terribly wrong with him when he sprouts fangs and a desire to hunt for meat. he runs away at thirteen, trying to find a cure (that he doesn't actually need because there's nothing wrong).

what he finds instead is ethereal jin ziyao, raised in a precarious harem situation where his father supposedly can control his mother's health and has threatened to make her waste away if he doesn't find a way to bring the nies under heel, even though he's all of fifteen.

with extreme misgivings, jin ziyao drags nie huaisang back to his father, only to be disturbed and disgusted at seeing huaisang treated like some kind of zoo animal. worse, his mother finds out about everything and is appalled by what happened.

but meng shi turns out to not be angry at him; she's pissed that his father held her health over his head like a coward to force him into doing something so cruel, and on top of that, she doesn't think jin guangshan actually has the power to do what he claimed, that it was all a bluff to scare her son.

so now mother and son are working together to save themselves and huaisang before all-out war with the nie sect can be provoked.

𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚃𝚄𝚂 … CLOSED *       ◟    : @irigy

     — ONE PAW THEN ANOTHER entered their office before she stopped in the doorway. green eyes watched the wicked for a second before the shifter crept closer and left behind a trail of blood that would usually be someone else's. jade would normally settle on top of kiyan's desk so they would have to do things around their body but the tiger passed them instead to hoist herself onto the nearby chaise that they barely used because it was too low.

I am hopped up with caffeine and i need to sleep so let's indulge my overactive imagination-

Franco has a bird gf, I think I've told you that before, right? And she's really vain and is the type to get jealous easily because yes!!! that is her man!!! leave him alone!!! the f2 press have made a whole joke about it but f1 media is very surprised when she flutters at them during media. Methinks that's why Williams media hates her too

Ollie's gf is a legacy kid (idk which but Schumi sounds good) and her dad was a shifter (a bear??) so her turning into a bear cub is honestly something to be expected but when she didn't become an actual bear (just stayed a cub) everyone was like 🧍‍♀️

Arvid (Lindblad)'s gf is a small animal that loves to nest in his curls. She is obsessed with them, like always pulling at them and nesting and all that

Kimi's gf loves rolling around in the grass so when she did it during the 2025 season George screamed so loudly that Bono smacked him because LEAVE THE TIGER ALONE, GEORGE. He nearly went to the GDPA to try and ban the tiger

OSCAR's gf is bffs with Mark Webber's gf. Enough said

And there is a groupchat for Prema shape-shifting gfs, and half of them are F1 gfs whose men were in prema and they all go: how do these idiots not know that so and so has a shape-shifting gf

Anyway enjoy my ramblings wifbjejdnwjw lots of love

- 🐺

i always love to see ur little rambles in my inbox, 🐺 anon!! it always helps give me ideas for my incoming fics :)

there is nothing i would like to add to the parts talking about each of the drivers’ girlfriends- it’s perfect, lmao! it would all fit perfectly into the canon shapeshifter!reader lore.

the group chat thought is so funny though. i feel like the most obvious one would be kimi- he has a whole ass tiger shapeshifting girlfriend, for goodness sake. a recurring topic would definitely be that even though george russell is such a good driver and the head of GDPA, he still has not connected the dots of why kimi’s girlfriend is never in the room when the tiger is present, and likewise. (george’s girlfriend gladly takes part in the george slander)

About the Book

title: Sweet Nightmare author: Tracy Wolff publisher: Entangled Teen release date: 7 May 2024

The scariest school on earth Is about to experience real fear… Most schools are about being the best. This school? It’s about being the worst. Calder Academy is where the rogue paranormals go. The ones who break the rules or lose control. And when that happens for vamps, werewolves, witches, and dark fae? It gets pretty freaking scary. I should know. Because I’m trapped here. Look, every seventeen-year-old girl thinks their mom is a tyrant. But mine just happens to run Calder Academy, which paints a giant target on my back. The way I make it through these dark halls is by steering clear of the things―and kids―who go bump in the night. Especially Jude Abernathy-Lee. But when a freak storm hits our isolated island, I’m stuck without a backup plan. The power is gone. The lights are out. And our worst nightmares are suddenly real―and out for blood. Now the only way to survive is to align myself with one evil to avoid the other. And the only thing worse than the idea of getting close to Jude? Secretly loving every minute of it.

Top 5 Reasons to Read

Sweet Nightmare evokes all the feelings of the old glory days of paranormal YA books! ANY fan of YA paranormal is going to want to read this one asap.

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! Okay, so I don't think there was actually a bear shifter...and not lions or tigers, but definitely other big cats with two leopard shifters! This book has alll the great paranormal creatures plus some I'd not seen before: vampires, fae, wolf shifters, mermaids, sirens, even manticores (no, I did not know what they were until this book, lol).

Clementine has a difficult relationship with her family, but there is so much found family here that it just warmed my heart. it's one of my favorite tropes, and the Calder Academy students came together for each other in the most difficult of circumstances.

Clementine and Jude have the most adorable friends-to-lovers relationship! My favorite thing about them is how Jude calls her by the name of every citrus fruit so she calls him by the name of Beatles songs, ahhhh it's just too sweet!

Although this is YA, Tracy is not at all afraid to put her characters in dangerous situations and make them, even as teens, work through it. These kids are put through the wringer! She does not shy away from the gore and even death such situations would bring either, which I personally would have loved as a teen reader myself.

Seriously, if you're at all a fan of YA paranormal books, including Tracy's Crave series and older standards like Twilight, pick this one up!
