vampire jinx and warewolf / vampire slayer caitlyn?

i love this because i’m used to seeing vampire!caitlyn (which makes sense given her cape in s2act2).

but vampire jinx would be sooooo fun especially because i imagine her to be very kooky and silly. like a what we do in the shadows character. not taking a single thing seriously. (also imagine the eccentric outfits she would come up with).

fanart 2: https://x.com/the3am_/status/1875772638532165789?s=46&t=6XyYORDs_ReW59UnMyq_-g

vampire slayer caitlyn feels very fitting as she is an enforcer of the law. it’s the same game of cat and mouse that caitjinx usually plays, but with supernatural elements

c: “stay right where you are, you foul beast, and don’t. move. a muscle.”

j: “ah, the great kiramman heir, come to slay the vile villainess of piltover’s elite. and yet, despite drowning in coin, it seems you still couldn’t afford a uniform with proper… coverage.”

c: “y-you. you have no right-!”

j: “did i offend your delicate sensibilities? if all it takes to ruffle your feathers is a comment about your cleavage, then buckle up, sweetheart. we’ve only just begun.”

the endless angst possibilities, as well. jinx feeling like a monster (because in this case, she quite literally is one). caitlyn questioning everything she knows, all that she’s been taught to believe about vampires. discussion of morality, ethicality, and the “soul.” religious/catholic themes and motifs. and, of course, good ol’ enemies to lovers.

great au. mwah!

Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Play Time: 70 hours and going because I like to hurt myself?

Platform: EA Pro Play 

Rating: 4/10

(Moved this Review from my other account because I can't mix art and text)

Environments 

I had a few oh, that’s pretty moments, but overall I found it hard to feel immersed. The cities are nice I guess and detailed, but they lack distinct, memorable qualities. 

A city like Minrathous has the potential to be an exciting showcase of magic woven into everyday life. Mages using spells to transport goods or to perform mundane tasks. I was also looking forward to see a clear divide between magic users and non-magic users, as previous games have implied that Minrathous is Ferelden in reverse. Instead, NPCs feel static, and there is nothing new or interesting done with the magic. For a place built up as legendary in previous games... Minrathous just doesn't deliver. Further, you only get to explore one district, so there is no contrast between richer and poorer areas. And Treviso? It's pretty... but I mostly remember pointy roofs and ziplines.

Character Design

Faces and hair are a big step up from previous games, and armors are varied and nice to look at. But it comes at the cost that it feels overdone, leaning into flashy, cartoony territory. I ran around in my starting armor for half the game because nothing really fit my character.

The companions suffer from this too to some extent. Darin’s open-chested armor seems impractical for a warrior, Neve, supposedly from Docktown, looks more like an aristocrat from Orlais than her background suggests. Bellara’s design is fine, but aside from her vallaslin, she doesn’t seem particularly Dalish. Emmerich and Harding look fine, especially in their camp outfits, which I prefer for most characters.

Combat and Gameplay 

I’ll be honest—I eventually turned the difficulty down to story mode just to get through the game. The combat didn’t do it for me: repetitive enemy hordes that seem randomly placed, limited abilities, and dodging and rolling mechanics that don’t feel very engaging.

Aside from a few setpieces and two boss fights, no encounter stood out. It’s not a particularly hard game, it just got tedious after a few hours.

Another complaint is that every class now feels overly magical. Since the lore around magic is such a key part of the series, this really rubbed me the wrong way. 

Story and World-Building 

Starting with the biggest issue: Veilguard’s main story is a weak.

In Inquisition, even if Corypheus wasn’t the most compelling villain, there was still a sense of growth as you built up your organization and connected with companions. In Veilguard, it feels like they stripped away what worked in previous games and just kept Corypheus. And the worst part? I miss Corypheus. At least he had a booming voice and some interesting lines. Veilguard has none of that.

The villains in this… honestly, where to start? Rather than feeling meaningful, they’re just names repeated so often it feels like the game worries I’ll forget them. Villains aside events unfold without much connection, leaving me questioning why things happen the way they do.

Why are we choosing these allies?

Why am I stuck doing busy work for them while the world is supposedly ending?

But who cares! It's not like your allies really matter. Rook is a one-man army after all. If we’d had them instead of the Hero of Ferelden, the Blight would’ve ended in Ostagar—and every named NPC would’ve survived, including whoever slay the Archdemon. 

Character and Companion Dynamics 

While presented as experts, they rarely get the chance to demonstrate their skills. Harding sometimes provides useful contacts, and Emmerich occasionally shows his abilities, but beyond that, companions often feel like tropes with minimal growth or depth.

For instance, one character is the “unwilling father,” but we never see him grapple with it genuinely—he just says it. Others are similarly shallow: the socially awkward “nerd,” the “noir detective” with a heavy burden, and the “tortured assassin” who doesn’t seem all that tortured. Insights rarely go deeper than quirks, like loving coffee or fish, which get mentioned repeatedly without further development. 

Previous games built strong, opinionated characters who added depth to the world, but here, companions are lacking. Banter is shallow, with little conflict or chemistry. I’ve never played a Dragon Age game where I wanted to skip side quests or companion quests, yet here, I actually did.

I honestly prefer Andromedas cast over this on. Never thought I'd say that but here we are.

Main Character and Roleplaying

Rook’s voice actor; I love em'... which only makes the limited dialogue options more frustrating. I tried to play Rook as a practical, no-nonsense character, but the writing kept steering me back to a softer, more agreeable tone.

If you’re aiming for a tougher or more forceful personality, you're out of luck. If you plan to play be prepared for Rook to come across as a diplomat. Further, you are forced to agree with everyone, and never get to question them or their motives.

So... maybe don't get this if you're into Baldurs Gate 3 and player agency?

Ending Words 

If you’re like me, and the highlights of previous games have been the banter, character depth, and exploring the world and lore, you’ll likely be disappointed. Honestly, I’d even recommend skipping it. Then again, I've seen people say the opposite. So what do I know?

No matter what you do, I’d suggest waiting for a sale. It’s not worth the full price. 

Extra shit

Combat and Gameplay 

There’s the matter of the quest marker, which gives you tunnel vision which distract you from the enviorments.

The loot feels out of place due to its flashy animation. I started skipping loot in certain areas because it felt inappropriate and slowed down the pacing.

You'll fast travel a lot. And I don't mean in a big open area. It's more of a design flaw: Fast Travel to the Lighthouse to talk to a companion. Fast travel to a location to start that companion's quest, walk to said spot to start the quest. Repeat 5 times.

Story and World-Building 

The ending to its credit, was nicely paced and visually strong. If the rest of the game had been more like that, it would’ve been a decent experience. 

The Shadow Dragons, the Crows, the Wardens—all these factions make sense to be here but do nothing meaningful for the story or the worldbuilding.

Even dramatic scenes lack memorable moments. For example, there is a prison escape that's visually pretty but otherwise lacks substance. The person you rescue has supposedly been there a year, but nothing about their appearance or behavior reflects this. There’s no memorable dialogue, nothing deeper—it’s all surface-level.

I personally think Bioware are cowards for only letting you side with an anti-slave organisation. Come on: This isn't the Teviner you've built towards for 3 games! *shakes fist*

[magic-and-sadness]

ok, i've stated it before, and while yeah she slays with her severed huru fit im a lot more focused on the background people. a lot of them seem... frail? kind of starved? maybe they're just really lean though. also, naked tails. i wonder if varang's little collection is from her enemies or her own people. or both.

they seem to be dressed up in pretty elaborate outfits. maybe a representiation of spirits or animals local to their region? also the fire kinda surrounds them??? are they burning??

i'm really really interested in learning how jim wrote these people. and i guess more specifically how they ended up so distanced from eywa and the like

Abducted

Shinobu Kochou x She/Her Reader

A/N: Tried putting these two together because they had the same major plot point. And I kind of hinted to past enemies, but they are in the lovers stage for the majority of the fic. Hope you enjoy, thanks for reading! Word Count: 3,335

(Y/n) woke up in bed alone, which was not at all unusual with how busy Shinobu was. What was unusual, was the commotion that had woken her up. In a flurry of footsteps and distressed noise, the butterfly girls came bursting through the door, Kanao frantically waving a piece of paper in (Y/n)’s face.

“Hm? What? What’s going on?” (Y/n) was having a hard time in her groggy state keeping up with everyone speaking over each other with such concerning urgency.

Aoi took the paper from Kanao’s hand and shushed everyone before reading the letter verbatim, voice shaking.

“We have captured the Hashira Kochou Shinobu. She put up quite a fight, to prove we have her, find enclosed a lock of her hair. If you wish to ever see her alive again, you will bring five-hundred-thousand yen and twenty children with Marechi blood to the summit of Natagumo Mountain before sunset tonight, or else!” Aoi flung the paper into (Y/n)’s lap, “Shinobu-sama has been abducted!”

“What?” (Y/n) picked up the letter and re-read it to herself, “This can’t be happening…” she adjusted her hold on the paper and felt something silky on the other side. She flipped the paper around and inhaled sharply when she saw the lock of purple and black hair tapped to the back. She crumpled the paper and bolted to her feet. In a few quick strides, she tore open the closet, throwing a high mobility outfit and an array of sharp and pointy weapons of varying sizes onto the bed.

“What are you doing?” Aoi asked, her and Kanao pulling the younger girls out of the way as (Y/n) continued to toss weapons out of the closet.

“I’m going to get Shinobu back.“ She answered monotonously, a chill ran through the other girls. It was a tone they hadn’t heard (Y/n) use in a very long time.

“How are you going to do that? You aren’t thinking about giving in to their demands, are you?” Aoi asked fretfully.

“Of course not. I won’t need to. Did you see that stupid little wax seal they used on the envelope? I’ve seen it before in my previous line of work. They are humans that work for demons. They provide the quality fodder, and in return they get protection, money, power… whatever they can get their hands on. But there are rare occasions like this where they think they can get more out of us than they could out of the demons they serve. I’ve dealt with people from their group before.”

“In your… old profession?”

“Yeah. Lots of people have lost their loved ones to that group over the years and came to me for justice. Safe to say, they don’t know who they’re messing with or they wouldn’t have even dared to send this letter.” (Y/n) turned to face the girls, eyes full of fire.

She dialed it back a bit when she saw them flinch backward and knelt before them all.

“I’m going to get her back, I promise.“

“I’ll go too.” Kanao spoke up.

“No Kanao, you’ll stay here with everyone else. This isn’t demon slaying. I don’t want to put you in a position where you may have to kill a human, no matter how much they might deserve it. Trust that I will do whatever it takes to bring Shinobu hole safe and sound. Stay here and take care of everyone while I’m gone. Can you do that for me?”

Kanao but the inside of her cheek, but nodded solemnly. (Y/n) squeezed her shoulder then got up and moved over to the bed to equip all of her weapons that she thought wouldn’t see they light of day again. Hopefully Shinobu wouldn’t be too cross with her for not throwing them out when she asked her to.

When the last knife was strapped down, she patted the head of each girl as she exited the room and then the mansion, disappearing quickly over the fence. She only had about ten hours before sunset, so she would need to get to Natagumo quickly to make it in time.

“Hang on, Shinobu. I’m on my way.”

***

Shinobu came to with a throbbing headache. She groaned and tried to cup her head with her hands, keyword tried. Her hands were tightly bound behind her back and upon further inspection, she found her legs to be tightly bound as well.

For as beaten and bruised as she was, nothing hurt her more than having fallen into this damn trap. It had started out so harmlessly. A small child had come running to her for help, his mother supposedly sick. The young boy looked dirty and malnourished. Of course Shinobu didn’t give it a second thought before she let the boy lead her up the mountain. She was so used to fighting demons, that she had forgotten there were humans out there who were just as vile.

She had sensed something off when she followed the boy inside the dingy house. She felt a malicious presence behind her and swiftly pivoted on her feet, dodging the burly arms that had reached out to grab her. With a few precision strikes, he fell to the ground, only for six more to take his place. She got a few good punches in, as well as a few slices from the knives in her shoes, but with an ambush of this scale, with so little space to maneuver or time to think, she was overpowered and knocked unconscious.

“Well look who finally decided to wake up.”

Shinobu winced as her head was pulled up by her hair, but she refused to make any noise that would give her captors any satisfaction.

“You sure cut me up pretty bad, little brat.” The man pulled her head back further so she could see the bloody bandage wrapped around his head. The spot where his left eye would be was particularly saturated with blood. “It hurts like hell.”

“That’s what you get when you sneak up on people. You’re fortunate that’s all you endured.” Shinobu smiled sharply, her teeth pressed together tightly when the man sharply tugged her hair again.

“We sent a message off with that bird that was following you around. If anybody cares about you, they’ll be here with our demands by sundown. If they don’t, I’ll carve you up the same way you carved up me and my buddies before we serve you up to the boss on a silver platter.” He grinned wickedly and made a show of looking up at the sky through the trees, before looking back down at Shinobu smugly.

“Not much time left…”

He promptly let go of Shinobu’s hair and her head fell back to the ground. The man laughed uproariously and his buddies joined in, save for the young boy who had lured Shinobu frantically filling his face. The man kicked Shinobu’s bound legs out of his way before rejoining them at the fire for another bowl of stew.

Shinobu kept her breathing even. Panicking in this situation would do her no good. Besides, those fools all but signed their own death warrants by sending En back to the mansion with whatever poorly written scrap of paper they composed. She hadn’t a doubt in her mind that (Y/n) was well on her way.

Still, she’d be damned if she didn’t at least try to get herself out of this mess before then. She was a Hashira, she killed demons, she wasn’t going to let a group of meat-headed plain, human men continue to get the best of her. Shinobu carefully rubbed her feet together so as not to draw attention to herself and nearly scoffed.

For being so upset with her about her sharp retaliations, they sure didn’t think it necessary to take away her shoes. Idiots. Ever so quietly, she bent her knees as far as she could and carefully removed a shoe. It took a little time to maneuver it into a workable position, but she got the blade end wedged beneath the rope on her hands and began to saw at it, and no one was none the wiser, or so she thought.

A heavy foot came down on her hands and she couldn’t stop the yelp of pain that left her lips, drawing the attention of the men at the campfire.

“You idiots,” the new arrival sighed, a man with much nicer clothes than the rest, “while you were all eating and drinking like pigs, you almost let our guest escape. Need I remind you we are dealing with a Hashira here? What do you think would have happened if we let her escape, hm?”

“The- the boss would totally kill us. Thanks for catching on to that, Hyousuke.” One man whimpered.

“The boss?” Hyousuke tilted his head to the side as he took Shinobu’s shoes and tossed them into the bushes, “You think I’d ever tell the boss if we lost a quality catch like this? No… no, no, no,” his eyes steeled and his voice took on a more dangerous tone, “I would kill you all myself. He doesn’t have time to deal with you useless fools. He needs to become a Kizuki to continue keeping us safe and he’s not going to get there if you can’t take the time to do your damn job!”

“My, to speak of a demon so passionately, is it love?” Shinobu smiled sweetly, then added, “Gross.”

Hyousuke sneered down at her and put more of his weight on her wrists before easing up and turning his attention back to the campfire.

“Where’s the damn rope? I’ll need to re-tie her hands.”

“Uh, Masaru had it last.”

“Where is he?”

“He needed to relieve himself. Went out to the woods like… huh, maybe twenty minutes ago?”

Hyousuke stiffened, then snarled, “Well go find him, now!”

The men scampered into the forest, the young boy reluctantly went to follow, but Hyousuke called him back.

“Goro, you stay. I have a special job for you.” He presented the young boy with a knife and lead him to Shinobu, “This is a big job, boy. You do this well, and your stranding in the group will skyrocket, you understand. Meals everyday, new clothes, an actual bed, all will be yours. All you gotta do is watch this woman and if she tries to escape, you slash her tendons. If that doesn’t work, kill her. Got it?”

Goro shook under Hyousuke’s intense glare, but managed a nod.

“Good. This shouldn’t take long.” Hyousuke glared down at Shinobu, “Behave yourself if you want to live through this.”

Shinobu stayed silent, watching him disappear into the woods before returning her attention to Goro who looked at her with fearful eyes, knife tightly grasped within his hands. It was time Shinobu implement her best defense in this precarious moment, so she began to talk to the boy. Ever so slowly, his grip eased as Shinobu took an interest in his upbringing. Having never known his mother, nor really any experience talking to women, the kind way Shinobu spoke with him felt completely foreign.

A pained shout echoed through the forest, putting them both on edge again. The forest went quiet again, but only for a few moments before to more cries were heard.

“Goro-kun, stay calm.” Shinobu tried to ease the boy’s nerves, but he still looked as scare and desperate as a cornered animal. “If you cut the rope—”

Goro shakily held the knife to Shinobu’s throat, “Stop talking!” He commanded through sharp breaths just as another shout was heard in the distance, though much closer than the previous ones.

Shinobu took the risk to keep talking, “There could be a demon out there. I don’t want you to get hurt, Goro-kun. Please free me and give me my sword so I can protect you.”

Goro looked conflicted, switching his attention between Shinobu and the woods anxiously. He heard another shout and shut his eyes tightly, knife still uncomfortably close to Shinobu’s neck— until a rugged rock came sailing in and knocked the weapon out of his hand and into the bushes.

They both looked over in the direction the rock had come from to see a bloody figure emerge from the woods near the campfire, breathing heavily.

“A demon!” Goro shrieked, skittering back on his behind to put Shinobu between himself and ‘the demon’, but Shinobu was not all that concerned.

“None of that is your blood is it, (Y/n)?” She asked calmly as if she already new the answer.

“Of course not,” (Y/n) huffed, “I may have been persuaded into an early retirement, but I’m still as sharp as ever.” She smirked with pride, before seeing Shinobu’s frown and tacked on an apology at the end.

Once upon a time, (Y/n) and Shinobu hadn’t gotten along all that well and a lot of that stemmed from (Y/n)’s line of work as an assassin for hire. Well, it stemmed from (Y/n) having lied about being an assassin when they had first met. Shinobu found out after they had been dating for awhile and it was not pretty. They had broken up, but after a few months of being miserable without each other, (Y/n) decided to retire and ask Shinobu to take her back with the promise of no more secrets and things had been getting better since.

“Mhmm,” Shinobu hummed as (Y/n) came over to untie her, Goro too scared stiff to move, “I recall telling you to get rid off all those weapons.”

“I did. Well, I got rid of most of them. But, see how handy it is to keep a couple of classics around?”

“I suppose...” Shinobu released a relieved sigh when the last of the rope was cut and then sat up, finding herself engulfed in a tight hug as soon as she did so.

“I’m so glad you’re okay.” (Y/n)’s voice was muffled from having her face pressed into Shinobu, but she was heard just fine.

“Sorry to worry you.” Shinobu brought her arms around (Y/n)’s neck to return the hug, despite the blood.

It was really nice for a few moments until they heard a twig snap and looked up to see Goro sticking his hands into the bushes, looking for the knife Hyousuke left with him.

“Hey, kid, just stay put, okay?” (Y/n) put her hand out in warning.

“We aren’t going to hurt you, Goro-kun. Come down the mountain with us, and we will keep you safe.” Shinobu promised.

“I can’t let you go! If you go, Hyousuke-san will kill me!”

“No he won’t. Just look at me,” (Y/n) gestured to herself, “If I didn’t kill him on my way here, then I’ll kill him when he shows up. And if you’re worried about any demons either, Shinobu had it covered, right?”

“Definitely,” Shinobu answered a bit distractedly, her sword back home in her hands, “Help me find my shoes?”

“Sure.”

“Don’t come any closer or I’ll- I’ll—“

(Y/n) gently ruffled Goro’s hair, stunning him.

“You must be tired. What do you say, wanna get off of this dumb old mountain?” She softly asked.

“Stop! You’re Just trying to trick me like I tricked you!” He yelled, pointing a finger at Shinobu.

Shinobu smiled sympathetically and crouched down before the boy, “That was a pretty mean trick, wasn’t it? You feel bad about it, don’t you?”

Goro didn’t say anything, but fresh tears sprung from his eyes.

“Don’t worry, I’m not upset with you. It’s hard to be hungry and on your own. I promise if you come with us, you’ll never have to do anything like this again. We will keep you safe.” She held out her pinky and after a short explanation of what a pinky promise was, Goro cautiously wrapped his own pinky around Shinobu’s.

“Well, isn’t that sweet.”

Shinobu and (Y/n) pivoted, shielding Goro from the new arrival. Hyousuke had returned with a few of his men, armed and ready for a fight.

“Damn, I really thought I had taken care of all of you.” (Y/n) groaned in annoyance. “Must’ve been shaking in the bushes as I walked by. Did you think of you regrouped, you’d be able to take me?”

“Hy- Hyousuke! I know this woman, she’s a demon with human blood, an assassin! She’s stolen lives from out faction before.”

“Demon with human blood seems a bit over dramatic,” she scoffed, “But also so, so hypocritical when you consider all you have done to give yourselves a cozy life.”

“Goro, get over here.” Hyousuke ordered through gritted teeth.

“He’s not going anywhere with you.” Shinobu denied, “It’s in your best interest if you let us pass.”

“I cannot return to him empty handed.” Hyousuke pulled a gun from his clothes, “I’ll just have to kill all three—“

In the blink of an eye, (Y/n) and Shinobu were on him. Shinobu’s sword pierced his hand and he dropped the gun in pain. (Y/n) instinctively went in for the kill. Hyousuke staggered before falling into the dirt, whatever was left of the small group scattered and fled into the woods. (Y/n) made a move to go after them, but Shinobu held her wrist.

“I think that they got the message.” She said.

“But they’re going to go back to whatever demon their friendly with and start up all over again with someone less fortunate.”

“En is following them. She’ll report the location back to Oyakata-sama and he will decide how to proceed from there. You already have more blood on your hands than I would like. Besides,” she whispered, flicking her eyes over to Goro, “You’re scaring him.”

“Alright, fine. I guess as long as it gets taken care of eventually, I don’t really care.” (Y/n) went to run her neck, but caught sight of the blood and just clasped her hands behind her back instead. “I’m sorry you had to see that, Goro-kun.”

“I’ve seen worse.” He mumbled quietly, shrugging his shoulders. Shinobu and (Y/n)’s hearts went out to him.

“We’re gonna work like hell so you don’t have to see anything like that ever again.” (Y/n) promised.

“You’ll be safe with us.” Shinobu reached out her hand as an invitation, “Come on, let’s go home.”

Goro hesitated, but he did take her hand.

“Hold my hand too?” (Y/n) batted her eyelashes and held out her bloody hand.

Shinobu’s eyes flickered to (Y/n)’s hand, then back up to her face, “Maybe another time, dear.” The hug they shared earlier was all the blood she wanted to deal with at the moment.

“Booooo.”

“You know what you can do though? Help me find my shoes. It’s a long way down the mountain, and I’d rather not be without them.”

“Yeah, yeah okay. I heard you the first time you asked.”

***

“I really needed that!” (Y/n) flopped onto the bed, her damp head landing in Shinobu’s lap, squeaky clean, “I almost forgot how itchy dried blood is.”

“Such pleasant words you are saying.” Shinobu replied with sarcasm. She put a bookmark between the pages of her book to mark where she had left off and put it aside to give her full attention, absently running her fingers across (Y/n)’s cheeks.

“I know. So is Goro-kun all settled in?”

“As much as he can be, but he’s in good hands. Naho, Sumi and Kiyo are excited to have someone younger than them around and surprisingly he seemed to latch onto Gotou-san quickly. I’m sure everything will get better in due time.”

“That’s good.” (Y/n) yawned and put her hands over Shinobu’s to keep them on her face. “And how are you feeling?”

“It was an unfortunate situation to find myself in, but I’m fine, really. I knew you would come.”

(Y/n) pulled one of Shinobu’s hands to her lips so she could plant a kiss against her palm. “If you ever feel not fine about it, I’ll be here for you then too.”

“I know,” Shinobu smiled warmly and hunched inward to return the kiss, “Thank you.”

MASSIVE TOTK STORY SPOILERS

Made some quickly colored sketches based on my thoughts and playthrough of totk now that I've reached the end of the main story (in 65 hours over 10 days...)

Explaining in order of appearance and also delivering thoughts opinions and spoilers on most things:

So since Sonia gets got and Rauru self sacrifices, and also Zelda shares a blood connection with them, they had to have had kids by the time Zelda got there. And I imagine she spent alot of time with them, since so much happens in those memories, so I like to think the kids and her got along. And I also image that these kids gotta look wild based on being half Zonia half Hylian. Wild looking halfling children left orphaned by Ganondorf.

Zelda gets saved from dragon form at the end, hoorah, however I think she should have kept some of the more dragon like features. I swear I'm not a furry but I just really like funky character designs. Something something how its become part of her something something I need lore videos on it immediately. Also a little Link mashup outfit (my favorite so far, pairing a horn with normal clothing)

So the sage avatars are like physical beings, hence why enemies can shoot at them and why they vanish when in villages in order to not scare people ig. Which to me implies that when you complete a sage dungeon with other sage avatars out, that actual sage can see them. While this has plentiful comedic potential, I do think Riju would be the only one to actually question it though. Also, I call the avatars "my shadow clone goons" or just goons for short, since they do like all my fighting for me. I sit back and block and they do all the work. Extra shout out to Tulin, I think he's killed more dungeon bosses than I have. I didn't wanna spoil Mineru to people so I just collectively call them my Goon Squad.

I thought it was really sweet how Zelda seems to have gotten a chance at having caring parental figures in Sonia and Rauru. I also think it's funny that the closest equivalent that I think Link has is in Purah. Who, when I got all the memories (and thus knew of the imposter and the fate of Zelda) and got the master sword, Link just straight up didn't share any of this until AFTER he got Mineru. Like. Buddy. All these people are worried about Zelda but you SAW THE MEMORY of Ganondorf using a puppet Zelda, and the memory of Zelda becoming a dragon. Like. He just chooses to keep those to himself until someone else brings it up. Straight up iconic. You keep all your secrets to yourself, little man. But it's funny how Purah literally had a line like "You knew all of this?! When were you gonna tell me?!" Lol

I have a lot of thoughts on this game, both good and bad, about the story, lore, mechanics, ect that I may make a post about eventually. However I do know that I'll probably make art of like every single new character eventually bc I dearly love them all (I especially think Yona has a cute design)! Anyways slay fun game I love it I shall continue to play 9/10

CONGRATULATIONS ON HITTING TWO HUNDRED EVIE!! for the mind palace thingy, can I have any One Piece oc of your choice + 8?? also feel free to ramble about that even as much (or as little) you like!! remind me to think of a nickname for you and congratulations again on hitting the milestone!! -🍂

It's finally done!!! I'm so sorry, this took ages. I was battling executive dysfunction and had to write an essay for university. But I promise, the wait is worth it. Or at least I hope it is ^^"

So, the canon event I picked... isn't... actually... canon. It's the final battle of Film Gold! Why...? Uh... leather. Yeah, that’s... That's actually it. Look at the Straw Hats' outfits, they look so freaking cool! And occasionally hot

So, without further ado...

Base is still by by Hevis-Swan

Behold! Fashion! If you know the reason for the final battle, you also know why Cora has to show up with maximum slay. It was a real challenge to figure out a way to make the outfit both fit the leather theme and make it still feel like Cora, because she's generally more the type for softer, flowier outfits. But she's also the type for fashion, and you can't tell me that she wouldn't jump at the opportunity to go full-on leather and fishnets and a good amount of sex appeal. If the latter doesn't work on her enemy, it still definitely works on Sanji and Zoro, which means more protection for her, because they would not let anyone hurt her.

Look below the cut for Zoro and Sanji's outfits for reference and to see what's below Cora's jacket and half skirt (it's spicy). If you want, I'll also write some ramblings on the scene(s) that this outfit is for! Just let me know :)

Don't be rude

It was her first true outing in months since The Breakup of All Breakups, a.k.a. the amicable separation of Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. She hadn’t allowed herself a moment of respite since that awful day and the many awful days that followed as possessions were split, home addresses were changed, and friends divided up as if they, too, were goods rather than nuanced human beings. 

The choosing of sides by the Weasleys and the Potters and the Longbottoms wasn’t expected given the peaceful nature of their split, but a natural movement of pieces as priorities overlapped. Of course Ginny celebrated her brother’s first day as co-owner of Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes rather than Hermione’s birthday— Harry was her husband and he logically went the same way. However, Neville never neglected Hermione’s special day, gifting her a new potted plant each year, and since he married Pansy Parkinson, that meant Hermione had made an unlikely friend with her former enemy, one who had softened considerably under her husband’s unyielding warmth and caregiving.

Friendship with Pansy meant a great deal of new realities for Hermione: a trending closet, regular visits to the hair salon and spa, frequent work lunches at the next up-and-coming restaurant, and a refusal to let wallowing breakupees lie for longer than strictly appropriate. 

Hermione’s time of mourning was over. Pansy’s evening of frivolity had arrived.

Look like a million galleons 

Grab the attention of every single available person, as well as the taken ones

Drink at least one alcoholic beverage per venue

Dance with at least one person

Take one kiss before the night is finished

“Pansy, this list is ridiculous.” Hermione stared at the parchment. The third was the only plausible item, as all the others were far beyond her natural capabilities.

“Are you wearing the outfit I put out?” came a voice from the kitchen.

“Yes, but—”

“And did you do your hair and makeup the way I showed you?”

“Yes, that, too—”

“Then the first one is already done.” Pansy popped into her bedroom at last, nodding her approval at the sight of Hermione where she stood in front of the mirror. “Perfect. You’re going to knock them all dead.”

“I don’t want them dead. That defeats the purpose entirely.” Hermione glanced back and forth between Pansy and the mirror, a dubious expression on her face. Her tamed curls did look fantastic, and her eyes particularly beguiling with her emphasized lashes. So that just left…

“How much was this outfit?” The two-piece affair included a dark green velvet mini skirt that hugged her rump, while the black halter top exposed her midriff, shoulders, and the entirety of her back. 

“Tsk, tsk, don’t be rude, Granger. You don’t just ask the cost of a gift like that.”

“That’s how corrupt politicians are bought.”

“Are you a politician?”

“…I could be.”

“Yes, well, until that day, accept my gift and slay like the bad witch that you are. Let’s go!” And with a snap of her fingers, Pansy was off to the Floo. She didn’t look behind her to see if Hermione followed—she knew the witch thrived off of praise and clear directions. 

Hermione followed her because she was a bad, bad witch, and she did want to slay tonight and every night after. She deserved it.

Hermione neglected to confirm in all her preparation for frivolity the location and audience of their destination. What welcomed her upon her toss of powder and seemingly innocent pronouncement of “The End of the Rainbow” was a club. Not a nice, familiar pub. Not a classy restaurant. The premier magic club, complete with tangible rainbow pathways connecting the levels instead of stairs. Their Floo dropped them right in the main entrance next to several other fireplaces, a transportation zone that rivaled the Ministry’s. This decision wasn’t for show, but necessity, as The End of the Rainbow was the largest nightclub of its kind in existence, housing several smaller, unique clubs within its grandiose structure, each one with its own theme and branding.

“I think I’m going to be sick.”

“Oh, no, no, no, honey, it’s much too soon for that.” Pansy’s sharp bob didn’t sway an inch as she executed a swift step and twist, handily swinging Hermione 180 degrees away from the fireplace and out towards the colorful atrium to stand beneath a board floating on literal clouds.

“Pansy.”

“Granger.”

“Please tell me those aren’t actually leprechauns with pots of gold over there.” The men in question cackled as they sifted coins through their fingers, winking at passerby as if tempting them to try and take their treasure. She remembered how Ron reacted to the reality of their illusions at the World Cup.

“If it bothers you, then don’t look. Just read the board and let me know what interests you.”

There seemed to be a venue for every fantasy: standard-variety muggle clubs, a unicorn forest for witches only, a Hogwarts Graduate School where “students” had the choice of being re-sorted into their dream house, and even Alexandria’s Library for bibliophiles like herself. Her hand gravitated towards the latter.

“Hermione!”

Daydreams of ancient scrolls and men in togas (unrealistic, but it was a fantasy after all) screeched to a halt at the call of one of her dearest friends. Luna pounced on her to deliver a hug surprisingly strong for a woman so slight.

“No!” Pansy dodged the girl’s attempt to grab her next, squeaking as she backed up into the arms of her old friend and Luna’s latest flame. “Blaise!” Luna took advantage of her beau’s positioning to sandwich Pansy in with an enthusiastic squeeze.

“Hey, Pansy. Granger. Happy birthday.”

She might not know Blaise Zabini very well yet, but she did enjoy the way in which he played off of Luna’s energy. “Thank you. I take it Pansy invited you along to witness my torment?”

“Of course she did.”

Her stomach once again dropped at the sound of the third voice, equally evocative as it was aggravating.

“Malfoy.” As Hermione’s eyes settled on his form, leaning far too casually against a pillar, his arms crossed against his stomach, she cursed Pansy, the entire Malfoy line, Salazar Slytherin, and Merlin himself for his presence. No man should possess such physical form, as if stolen from Adonis himself–those shoulders, that waist, his ass (Circe, help her), those quidditch thighs, a face fitting of the son of a woman named Narcissa…and that hair. Her housemates used to make fun of his sleek, pale locks in school, ermine-like in quality, but now all she wanted to do was fist it while riding him to exhaustion. 

“Earth to Granger.”

“Hm?” She was caught in his gaze, as cloudy as they were confusing every time she looked into them.

“Her-mi-o-ne.”

This time, the use of her given name zapped her into movement. She missed the smirk that crossed Malfoy’s face as she swung around to respond to Pansy who wore a disturbingly delighted expression.

“Have you decided where you’d like to start the night?”

“You have to promise not to laugh.”

“The library, I take it?” he drawled from behind her. 

Hermione refused to look at him again. “Precisely.”

“Well, it is your birthday and we are here to entertain.”

Before Hermione could lead the charge, Pansy darted forward, looping her arms into Blaise and Luna’s and leaving the remaining two behind.

Damn her.

“Shall we?” 

He stood very close, elbow extended. It would be rude of her to ignore it, and Pansy did already tell her to not be rude.

She took his arm.

“Not too fast? These heels are ridiculous.” Hermione waved her free hand at the death traps on her feet.

“Of course, though they do make your arse look fantastic.” He grinned at the blush that swarmed up her neck and onto her cheeks. “How much do you want to bet there isn’t a single tome in their supposed library you haven’t read?”

“Pfffffft, that’s too easy.”

Walking and talking with Draco Malfoy felt as natural as breathing, if Hermione were to be truthful to herself. He led her effortlessly up the curve of the rainbow towards the towering columns. She imagined this as an actual date, rather than the machinations of a Slytherin graduate to help her recover from heartbreak. They halted just under the archway, monolithic faces peering sightlessly down on them.

“What should we bet on, then?”

He’d turned her to face him, arm relaxing to curl his fingers along her arm before dropping to his side. She stared into his chest, mere centimeters from her nose–he smelled of bergamot, rosemary, and sandalwood. Inhaling deeply, she similarly gathered her courage and looked up.

“How about whether or not I’ll tick off every item on Pansy’s to-do list?”

He searched her eyes, the barest hint of a smile playing on his lips, before responding. “And what’s on this list?”

She broke eye contact to reach into her purse for the parchment, which she handed over silently. The hint turned into reality as he laughed fully, an unfettered sound she rarely heard but now wished to hear every day.

“I’ll bet on you fulfilling this list,” he said at last, wiping tears away from his eyes and still chuckling to himself.

“And what do you demand if you lose?”

He glanced upward at the club they still had yet to fully enter, before turning his warm smile back on her. “How about unlimited access to the Malfoy family library?  Forever.”

Good Godric. Even after the Ministry gutted their library after the war, there were still priceless treasures to uncover within its walls. Hermione had seen the records noted by the cursebreakers; she knew she could spend a lifetime studying the tomes within and still not put a dent in the full knowledge available.

“...and if you win?”

She wanted him to lose. She needed him to lose. Nothing else could match open-ended entrance to the Malfoy library.

“One date.”

She blinked. Opened her mouth, then shut it again without speaking. Hermione looked for what had to be a joke, but came up with nothing but genuine want in his gaze. She didn’t move as he brought one hand up to brush against her jaw. He leaned in slowly, so slowly, until his lips just hovered above hers without quite touching.

“What do you say?”

She answered him by bringing her own hand up, fisting that perfect hair just like she had always wanted, and pulling him down to close the distance between them.

That was item 5 complete–the rest of the list now seemed trivial. What had she been worrying about this whole time? Hermione’s heart swelled within her chest, beating in defiance of her seeming heartbreak as if to say, “I am here. I am wanting.”

They parted their connection with a gasp and it was several seconds before Hermione found the presence of mind to answer his question.

A couple weeks later as they snogged against bookshelves in Draco’s ancestral home, Hermione finally said yes to revealing their relationship to their loved ones. Pansy was insufferable in her gloating. It didn’t matter who won or who lost, because in the end, they each got what they wanted, which was, of course, each other.

WC 1879 I got into this prompt far more than I expected when I first started it late last night. I might be convinced to extend it into something more substantial if there's any interest :)

New(ish) to Arknights

Arknights once again has a firm hold of my brain after Magic the Gathering took it over for a few weeks. Which means it's time for me to gush about another random character that I love.

This is Erato.

First and foremost her character design is <3 <3 <3

She's based off a secretary bird. If you don't know what a secretary bird is here's a picture. I love these things. Look at it! Then look at her! Perfect! Ahhhh

She is so cute. The way her hair mimics the feathers on the head of a secretary bird. The color palette on her outfit and how her nails match. The outfit itself screams elegance and her shoes are killer. The flowers in her hair. The giant harp she has to lull enemies to sleep, which I'll talk about momentarily. Everything about her design slays and makes me happy.

Gameplay wise I find her super fun. Her entire thing is telling enemies that they will go to sleep and then she will put them to sleep permanently. Her s1 puts enemies to sleep for 5 seconds and then her talent lets her shoot sleeping enemies in the face while ignoring 50% of their defense. The s2 is an atk and atsp increase which thanks to her talent also targets sleeping enemies and ignores their defense. If you have other operators that can put enemies to sleep then this skill sounds excellent but I don't – at least that I'm aware of - so I always use s1.

Her range is also enormous! She can attack 13 different tiles but none of them are the row right in front of her so it takes me a second to find the best place to put her.

Even her character itself rules. I'm not the most up to date on Arknights lore – I'm still rather new compared to most people - but from what I've gathered this woman wanted to meet her hometown hero, met her hero, thought her hero actually kinda sucked as a person, said screw it I'd be a better role model than they are, and then just did that. What a legend.

Is Erato meta? Nah probably not. Not like I'd know but I never hear anyone talk about her so I doubt it. Do you need to build her? Nah. She's fun to use cause sleep is neat and her talent/s1 combo lets her delete something once in a while but she's not carrying the squad or anything. I love her anyways though. Character, design, and fun to play? A+ in my book then.

May I stand unshaken

Amid, amidst a crashing world

Did I hear a thunder?

Did I hear you break?

I can't quite remember

Just what guided me this way

Arthur had tried to make Olivia go with John and get back to her family, who were already making their way back to Canada, but she couldn't just leave him. He was weak and leaving him now would certainly lead to his death sentence.

So Olivia stayed, and she fought. She took down more enemies in that final fight than Arthur did due to her still being perfectly in her prime but Micah had gotten the best of her and thrown her off the cliff onto the ledge below. She tried to climb back up but she was still fighting off whoever remained until Micah and Arthur fell onto the ledge.

Liv helped Arthur fight but he still succumbed to his tuberculosis and the injuries that Micah had given him and she was ready to finally kill Micah but Dutch shot her in the back mutliple times and she collapsed.

After coming to, she found Arthur trying to drag himself to the rocks and she aided him in doing so, holding him as he took his final breaths and watching the sunset with him. At that very moment; she promised to herself to kill both Micah and Dutch for what they'd done.

sketch

I apologize for disappearing again, but I promise it's not without reason. I'm actually currently working on the fic for this crossover au, so I'll finally have more. I'm also going to be posting some 2000's RDR2!Olivia soon because I jist love putting her in slay little outfits. Plus her relationship with her younger stepsister Melanie would be so totally different due to the trauma she's received from her experiences in the Van der Linde gang.

This part of the story will never not make me want to cry. Not only because Arthur tried to be better in the end and find his redemption, but also because Olivia lost one of the most important people in her life and she was only able to comfort him in his final moments.

I actually contemplated what lyrics to use for this post, because I always associated Somewhere Only We Know (the Lily Allen version) more fitting for Olivia and Arthur's relationship, but I decided on Unshaken by D'Angelo because it's the longer version of Crash of Worlds. It also feels so fitting for both Arthur and Olivia.

Also I know the colored version isn't exactly the best. I don't actually enjoy doing lineart or color in traditional but I wanted to at least try it. Plus I just wanted a reason to color Olivia's golden hazel eyes because they're so pretty.

[livvyofthelake]

new lost ranking post the hurley episode i watched last night. episode 18? maybe. whatever

1. jack obviously. he’s never getting knocked off the top of the pyramid there’s literally nothing anyone else could do to make me like them more than jack…. nothing this show ever does will ever beat do no harm

2. sayid!!! his swag is like. so unbeatable… he just hits different AND he’s a total hottie too woah… loving his paranoid insane freak arc this season. the writers were like what if we killed his girlfriend and made him act insane. and i’m eating it up actually i mean i wish they hadn’t killed his girlfriend considering that was literally my good friend shannon who i miss deeply. but sayid is NOT moving on and i love it… need me a freak like that sorry

3. claire… maternity leave was HUGE… and that’s my friend belle she always ranks higher than she probably should because she’s my friend belle <3

4. hurleyyyyy :) my special little prince and i mean this… i’m such a hurley girl and yeah sure you can also chalk that up to the fact that hurley is the pet character of eddie and adam and i would love anything eddie and adam did forever and ever except that tron movie i could never quite get through watching. heart! anyway yeah i love hurley he’s my guy… hurley is so. me age 19 but different but the same. wow. if hurley could read some of my notes app poetry from 2020 he’d feel seen in a way that would motivate him to seek professional help. but let’s not get into that

5. ana lucia SORRY. she kinda sucks so fucking bad and yes she killed my beautiful girl shannon but that was only her fault as much as it’s a gun’s fault when someone uses it to kill someone. so i’ve never blamed her for that it’s just a bad situation which she will notttt be coming out on top of 😐. but i think she’s sooo cool in a woman who sucks way… and her cunty 2000s ass outfit is crazy… the black tank top and low rise bootcut jeans and chunky belt and zip up utility vest…. i’d dress up as her for halloween if i was the kind of person who dressed up for halloween or was willing to buy an ugly belt for a one wear costume. also her plot with sayid rn is soooo good they’re looking at each other just two paranoid FREAKS going. you aren’t crazy. and neither am i. let’s fucking kill these Others. it’s sooooo good… and she never makes the same mistake twice…

6. eko my good friend eko…. he’s so…. he’s just so kind… imagine having the patience and compassion to be nice to charlie right now. woah

7. kate. in her flop era rn and it’s DIRE. but we love her this is the highest i can put her right now i’m sorry girl you just can’t beat out eko and hurley and ana etc when you’re acting like this….

8. rose and bernard <3 soooooo excited for them next episode it’s not even funny… that’s literally rose and bernard….

9. libby. category five obsessed with that freak disease! she took one look at that loser hurley and was like he’s so fucking pathetic and weird. and i want him so bad. and i HAVE to respect her game. she said oh yeah i’m gonna talk him back from suicide and then it’s ON…

10. danielle rousseau… she literally slayed the house down in maternity leave… sorry queen for never including you in these lists before now my bad fr!

11. sun <3 she’s so. your girl friend who deserves way better but she’s so happy with her annoying and unlikeable man you can’t even tell her to dump his ass no matter how bad you want to

12. michael… where tf is michael… i miss him :(

13. new guy. i can’t very well call him henry now can i. wtf is his name… kinda like his pathetic gay swag. but he’s sooo annoying 🙄 and frankly i stand with sayid’s paranoid freak ass… but he’s kinda fun to have around i admit! love how he’s always playing mind games!!

14. locke admittedly has been slaying lately but i still think all his backstory episodes are lame and bad and also. as we say. an enemy of jack’s…

15. jin. he like. swings wildly between me hating him so bad i hope he dies and me thinking he’s soooo interesting and compelling and cool. the whole truth was a crazy episode in this way when it started i was like wow he needs to kill himself. and then by the end i was like woah why is he the most interesting man on lost island…. the way he literally can’t talk to anyone but sun as a physical storytelling metaphor for his closed off nature that prevents him from ever being truly known… wowie!

16. charlie. he’s flopping soooo hard this season. remember when charlie used to be a top five character. that’s crazy

Hiii💕💕💕 Could you please make some hc or a scenario where white death's s/o is a mafia boss like him but in a much much larger organisation and he gets kidnapped by her enemy and she has to go there and save him but like he doesn't know about this part of her life so this is like a surprise to him.

Also, thank you for responding to my requests and Merry Christmas 💕💕💗❤

TW- one part is like sorta gorey😭

It didn’t take a long time for you at all to get news of Roshan’s kidnapping. And boy were you pissed. It had been almost 20 years since you had to show your face when it came to the gang life. You threw a fit and quite honestly no one knew what to do. No one actually told you since they figured he could take care of it but you happened to hear them whispering and the first thing that came to mind was the worst.

When sudden slamming and thuds came from your room everyone ran to check on you only to find you dressed in a similar outfit your husband wore when he did his own slayings, your face covered by a mask. Now this drawn confusion from all of them as you pushed past them. They almost didn’t even recognize you. Everyone begging you to sit down and explain he was fine. Nothing they said was going to deter you from your husband.

Roshan was locked in a heavily padded room as they knew exactly he was capable of and didn’t want to underestimate him at all. In total there were 6 people guarding him, taunting his beaten form. They definitely did damage to him, a broke nose and fractured jaw had to be the worst of it. They were cut off by a thump. They grew quiet when they seen their superiors head roll into the room. The eerie silence turned turned to loud sounds of gunfire. The room filled with bullets and most barely had any time to react. All but 1 body had dropped to the floor and even Roshan was shocked. They had no clue who the hell was suddenly coming after them.

When you stepped into the room the last person backed away. He yolked Roshan up off the ground by his hair making him groan. He painted his gun right at the side of his head “I’ll blow his fucking brains out if you come.” You stopped but that did nothing because he wasn’t expecting the sudden switchblade to come flying at his eye. He screamed in pain and dropped to his knees. You walked over to him yanking the blade out his eye, slicing his throat to not have to deal with his annoying voice any longer. Ignoring the sounds of the man gargling you turned to Roshan who was screaming at you in Russian. You took a few steps befor taking off your mask.

“Roshan shut up please, it’s me.”

“..the fuck?! You- what?!”

“Yeah listen it’s a lot to explain-.”

“Well start explaining cause I’m growing iffy about this.”

After you explained how you grew up in the mafia, your father being heavily respected but also wanted. That was the reason you were hidden from everyone including you guys family. You ran the organization in secret to keep your life safe.

“God you’re even worse than I am.”

“I guess, sort of.”

“I fucking love you.”

First round of HGCZ liveblog reactions!

The warning symbol system is very cool and considerate!

The meta framing of the first comic is So Fucking Funny and perfectly sets up Scar’s desire to be admired and seen as a comic book-style superhero. The way it starts breaking down at the end and the re-use of the same jpeg of himself is so cnjsncnsncn

THE MEETCUTE. EEEHEEEHEE DDVAU I SEE YOUUUU

i fucking ADORE cornpaper’s style, the characters are so Shaped and Expressive. Ooo setting up the people who know scar’s identity! Plus showing his acting job and how he balances that with the hero jazz. Love the “saying the hotguy logo verbally somehow” bit, I know exactly what post that’s referencing lmfaoooo. Ren suggests a hero organization! THE FLOWERS. I’M WEAK.

MUMBLR AND CHATTER/M. DOES MUMBO OWN TUMBLR. IS DOC THE ELON MUSK EQUIVALENT OF THIS UNIVERSE. THE QUEERBAITING DISCOURSE JDJGJKDJSJ. This part is just. So well done. It’s very accurate, fucking hilarious, and serves as really good worldbuilding

GRIAN CHAPTER!!! THE WAY ALL HIS PERSONAS ARE INTEGRATED IS SO GOOD FKKSNC. Sherlock grian. Ariana griande. Permit manager WITH the hold music. The way they’re all chatting in his Mind Palace. MIDNIGHT ALLEY COME ONNN. The action scene is really well done, I love the colors and the movement. THE SCULLLLLK

THE SCULK SNAILLLL oh im gonna love this. Can I just say I Adore everybody’s different interpretations of their outfits, they all slay. Hg and Cg’s banter is really good, I LOVE the juxtaposed perspectives page: “this fight is…not my favorite”/“this fight fucking sucks.” “ARSON!! :D” GRIAN FUCKIGN. FIREBOMBING THE PLACE. SCREAMING. FHE FUCKIGN. MERCH. JUSTBHIS FACE ON THE SHIRT IM GONNA THROW UP KAUGHING. I see that fond look. Cub absolutely knows. Oh and of course he got possessed because he seasoned his fucking pizza with the Evil Goo why wouldn’t he. This was really fucking good

The whole email segment is pure gold. Really good characterization for everyone involved: bdub’s obsession with being scar’s favorite, cub’s bs excuses for scar’s absence, Grian’s frustration. LASER CHICKENS. doc’s there and just wants credit for his really good chicken crime. The fistfight is probably fake. Pearl is the only person really doing her job. Hg and cg actually working well together. Bdubs and cub conspiring against bdubs’ enemies. Threatening scar with the lilo&stitch not-a-virus. Agreeing to get pizza together at the end. GOLD.

Doc being a fanboy of actor!scar oh my GOD KDJSJFJSJ. TCD MENTION!! Beef between doc and bdubs, always good. MORE MUMBLR YESSSSS. PROFESSIONAL HOSTAGE AS A VALID CAREER PATH I’M KSNFNDJDD. Mending beach as a location is Very good. QUEEN JELLIE GETTING MORE LIKES THAN SCAR AS 👏SHE 👏SHOULD👏

Okay guys, these are my Alvin and the Chipmunks cinematic universe headcanons:

-Dave and Ian are in an enemies to lovers situation

-They both realised their feelings for eachother in Chipwrecked

-Ian has feelings for Dave, but won't admit it

-Dave is terribly oblivious, not only to Ian's feelings, but his own as well

-Dave is bisexual

-Ian is gay

-Alvin and Brittany are besties and love to gossip with each other

-Simon is tired of only singing covers, and writes original songs, but he's too scared of rejection to show anyone

-Jennette doesn't really want to be in the music industry anymore, but she's too scared of letting her sisters down to quit

-Eleanor likes to finger paint :)

-Theodore isn't as stupid as he seems, he only acts that way because he doesn't want to have any responsibilities

-Brittany likes to play dress up with Dave, and she makes him put on sparkly outfits so he can ✨️slay✨️

This is it for now, I might do a part 2 later, if anyone has any personal headcanons, I'd love to read them :))

..this is so embarrassing omg
