what about luke castellan x ballerina!reader but she had to give up ballet when she went to camp and he like finds her dancing in the forest one night. maybe when heā€™s a little busy with like backstabbing everyone but ykšŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
(like meet me in the pale moonlight or tomorrow never came coded like ughhšŸ˜©šŸ˜©)
wait...i adore this. as a dancer this made my heart actually jump for joy.
Tumblr media
every night, luke was plagued with dreams. the not good kind, more specifically.
it started a few months ago. the deep ancient voice of a titan long imprisoned would echo through his mind, urging his darkest desires of revenge and shameful need for power to the forefront of his thoughts. he was angry, angry at the gods for ignoring him and all their other children. he wanted to stop this system, he was full of bitterness.
so the voice in his head was appealing. he knew that it probably wasn't morally good to listen to the evil titan kronos, but then again, if it all ended up with the system of the gods abolished, he could live with that.
but anyways, the point is, dreams invaded the peace luke found in his unconscious state, and sometimes, it was too much. sure, he agreed with the titan, but he wasn't ready to abandon home and betray his friends, not when they were the only ones who accepted him. he couldn't do that, no matter how much to words appealed to him.
so, when the hermes cabin felt suffocating, and his mind was reeling, late at night, luke would venture off into the woods.
luke felt at comfort with the odd eeriness that filled the late night air - he didn't jump or flinch at the sounds of leaves crunching or bushes rustling - he felt at peace with the scary.
that was, until he saw footsteps in the mud.
curious, luke followed the trail, until he reached an more open area of the forest, and he leaned up against a tree, taking in the sight in front of him with pure curiosity.
there you were, wearing grey sleep shorts, a black tank top, and a pink cardigan, dancing in the middle of this forest.
you seemed to be in your own world, sneakers planted in the ground as you did some simple plies, and luke watched, transfixed by the sight. your hair was tied up by a pink ribbon, and you had the most peaceful expression on your face, not one luke had ever seen before.
you were relatively new to camp, only having arrived in the past year. you were quickly claimed by your mother, aphrodite, and gained a fast group of friends and a positive reputation. luke and you hadn't talked much - sure, he gave you your tour, and the two of you had got on quite well, but once you got claimed, he didn't have much time to talk to you, given the rapid enthusiasm of your siblings.
he didn't know you were a dancer, a good one in fact. you elegantly pranced around, your feet moving quickly yet gracefully. luke was mesmerized - he had never really seen anything like it, like you. you seemed so free - so unburdened by the struggles of being a demi god. just you, alone (kind of?), dancing - luke guessed like every other demigod, you had found your own way to feel normal in this crazy world.
eventually, your eyes caught luke, and you stumbled back, imidiatley flushing. gods, you were mortified!
"l-luke? what are you doing here?" you exclaimed indignantly.
luke remained leaned up against the tree, the corners of his lips tilting upwards. "was on a walk, happend to come across you."
you huff. "how long have you been there?"
he shrugs, standing up straight. "not long." he walks forwards a bit, closer to where you stood. "you dance?"
wasnt it obvious? you thought, but awkwardly twiddled your thumbs. "well, used to, i guess. cant really anymore, cause....you know." you say, your voice somewhat shy.
luke humed in recognition. "yeah, the whole demigod thing doesnt help. wouldnt be fun if a cyclops showed up to a rectial, huh?" he said, the dry yet teasing humour in his voice elicited a giggle from your lips. "guess not," you agree softly, your eyes twinkling happily.
luke, feeling a little bashful, rubbed the back of his neck. "uh, your really good by the way. i feel a bit bad interrupting, you were in the zone."
you bite your lip, feeling a bit embarrassed. "yeah well, theres never really time to dance anymore, so i guess whenever i cant sleep i come out here to." you look him up and down. "is that why you're out here? you cant sleep?"
luke hums. "yeah. nightmares," he simplifies, his thoughts being brought back to the reason he left his cabin.
you blow out a breath of air. "hate those," you mumble.
luke observes you. "you enjoying camp?" he asks, changing subject.
you smile a little, nodding. "yeah, its different then what i thought it would be. it actually been really great, my sibling have been super welcoming," you say, your voice sounding so genuine and enthusiastic it was hard for luke not to smile.
his lips quirk up, eyes filled with a bit of mischief. "yeah, well, camp'll do that for you."
you bite your lip, almost as if you were contemplating your next words. "y'know, i haven't seen much of you since i got here. you must be busy."
luke chuckles a bit. "why, have you been looking for me?"
his flirty words heated your cheeks and you let out a nervous laugh. "no!" yes. "i was just wondering."
luke poked his tongue to the inside of his cheek. "right, right."
you talked for a little longer, before luke escorted you back to your cabin. you thanked him with a quick kiss to the cheek before running inside, and luke walked back to his own cabin, distracted from the overbearing titan in his dreams, even if only for a little while.

Your back! Hi! :D Ok, the guys adore and are protective of their female human best friend (fem reader). She shares a strong bond with them, and they with her. So, if she ever gets injured or sick, the guys are protective for a while. She is ready to help them again (as much as she can with being a human and all) but what she doesn't realize is that this time it's close to their spring season, making them very protective, territorial, and aggressive to outsiders. How would this play out as they are close to their primal time of the year, and she wants to go with them as they're about to leave on patrol, but they won't let her? Fluffy ending. šŸ„ŗ(maybe some turtle noises and behaviors too)
Protective TMNT headcanonsā€”reader wants to come on patrol
Bayverse, 2003, or 2012 if it suits ya. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø. SFW! Mentions of "spring season" for the boys but nothing s*xual. hope u like it @pokemew119 !
Leonardo:
ā€¢ Like Leonardo, we'll be straight to the point with this oneā€”he's not going to want you going out with them. Normally, he doesn't want you to. Now he really doesn't want you to
ā€¢ Due to their biology, springtime can be pretty dreadful for the bunch (for Splinter, too, he's the one having to manage them). Aggression, sensitivity, protectiveness, fussing over their rooms, etc. So you asking Leo to go out on their nightly patrol with them was a "this really isn't a good time" moment for him
ā€¢ "The Lair is warm and safe, why would you want to come out here, anyways? Leave the fighting to me. That's what I'm here for, that's my job."
ā€¢ Can be a little bit of an ass about it ngl, because he just wants to know you're home with someone he actually trusts to protect you, their father
ā€¢ You heard Leo bark your name as you started up the ladder out of the sewers. Blue eyes giving you a suspicious look. You were trying to sneak topside so you'd be out there before he was able to protest. "No, no, go ask Master Splinter to show you some stuff if you want something to do so badly."
ā€¢ Pats you along back to the Lair, watching to make sure you actually go back inside
ā€¢ If you DO end up out there with them, he's going to be stressing a little more than usual about the setup because it throws him off having someone he feels he needs to constantly look out for, unlike his brothers who are more or less self-sufficient. But you bet you're always going to be his first priority, no hesitation
Michelangelo:
ā€¢ For once, the heightened senses of springtime had Mikey thinking slightly more rationally than usual
ā€¢ "Babycakes, you sure you want to come? It's ugly out there, smells bad, full of dudes always asking for a beat-down, maybe you should stay." Ruffles your hair for reassurance. "We can play games when I get back!"
ā€¢ Secretly tries to dissuade you from even wanting to go out with them in the first place with promises of fun back at home
ā€¢ If you do go anyways, he's taking every chance to show off his nunchaku skills
ā€¢ Gets annoyed at his siblings for taking your attention away from him (oop there's the possessiveness)
ā€¢ Very touchy, constantly hanging off of you or trying to play-fight, sit close to you on the sofa, scoot his chair towards you at dinner, etc.
ā€¢ You ask if you can go with them on their way out and you catch Mikey
ā€¢ He smiles big and sheepishly shakes his head, "Sorry, y/n, not tonight! You're kickin' back in my beanbag tonight and hanging out, not running around New York." End of conversation. You try to say something, he interrupts you, thumping your shoulder. "I'll text you! See ya, angel!"
ā€¢ More passive about his protectiveness and isn't so outright about it like Leo, but on the inside, still doesn't fully understand why he feels that way (even though Donnie has explained over and over again)
Donatello:
ā€¢ "You want to come out with us? Not gonna work, y/n, this is real stuff," he said amicably, raising his brow ridges. "There's been a three-point-four percent increase in crime rate just around the next four blocks, and that's with us kicking tail every other night. Statistically, you're liable to become a target and..."
ā€¢ Donnie gets real irritable in spring and tends to avoid his brothers, argues with Leo about about their rooming situation bc he wants to be alone (except for with you)
ā€¢ Sets up an entire cozy corner in his lab for you to chill in while he's gone and hopes you'll use it, even though he'd definitely rather be home and not topside at this time
ā€¢ When you ask him to tag along on their patrol, he starts spouting off all the reasons you shouldn't and ultimately wins that debate
ā€¢ Compromises by letting you man his tracking/observation station and communicating with them on their missions from the sewers
ā€¢ He actually loves knowing you're on tap while he's out in the city and he can just radio in whenever he feels like it
ā€¢ "See, isn't being our control center way better?"
Raphael:
ā€¢ Raph already has a huge attitude problem, make that tenfold in spring.
ā€¢ Gets waaaaay too overprotective at times, verges on bothersome levels of spazzing over what you do and where you go
ā€¢ "You wanna go on patrol? With us? Just, out in New York City? With the Foot? Ahah, ain't happening, y/n. 'You said 'maybe' last time?' Well, I'm sayin' no, this time. You'll be bored?" He shrugs. "Watch TV or something. But you're not comin'."
ā€¢ If you do somehow manage to go (highly unlikely), he's going to be grumpy and complain the whole time because he's secretly just worried and his hormones are out of whack
ā€¢ Gets overly aggressive defending you from anything and probably stirs up more conflict over it tbh
ā€¢ "It ended up fine that time, but don't do that again, ya hear?" He doesn't want to seem like he cares too much, so he flicks your head. (That man is head over heels for you)

ā€œFUCK THE OTHER KIDS I ONLY CARE ABOUT OURSā€
Danny better be included in that context. I want to see the two interact with one another. I feel like they would get along and just be little Clarisseā€™s around camp terrorizing everyone. And Clarisse is standing in the side being a proud mama šŸ˜‚šŸ˜Š
WEā€™RE SO BACK
danny and ivy are about the same age in my little version of a canon universe so they would call themselves twins. i never really defined either of the features i donā€™t think but for me personally i think of ivy as this feisty little blonde with a fuckass bob she pulls off SO well, constantly wearing pink and flowers just to turn around and destroy someone
and then danny i imagine him to be like a young josh hutcherson (bridge to terabithia era, maybe a bit younger) except w more prominent freckles and a bit darker hair
so anyways.
they donā€™t look alike at all so thatā€™s what is so fucking hilarious about it but theyā€™re like ā€œweā€™re twins!!! best friends!!! brother and sister!!!ā€
thatā€™s genuinely how they introduce themselves to everyone and then everyone is like???
also percy is so fucking terrified good god hes losing his shit THERES THREE OF THEM NOW????? heā€™s like ā€œwe need to BAN clarisse and y/n from adopting more childrenā€
(as if clarisse would listen to percy šŸ™„šŸ™„šŸ™„)
so basically danny and ivy would be attached at the hip. like they have twin telepathy fr and ut pisses everyone off
when theyā€™re separated (god forbid youā€™re split up onto different teams) (theyā€™re not afraid to kick and scream and cry) (chiron would PERSONALLY make sure they are not split up again bc genuinely just no one wants to deal w them SCREECHING)
ivy is a daddyā€™s girl (aka clarisse)
danny is a mamaā€™s boy (aka y/n)
danny and ivy are kinda like the polar opposites of each other i mean donā€™t get me wrong is danny absolutely lethal with a weapon? yes obviously and he tries so hard to be like his half-siblings and love battle and war and all that stuff but he just doesnā€™t get the same joy out of it
clarisse doesnā€™t really care, she comforts danny as best as she can and tells him he doesnā€™t have to love it as long as he can protect himself so she has some piece of mind, sheā€™s kinda confused as to why dannyā€™s is technically aresā€™ kid but also like thatā€™s her kidā€¦. so she really donā€™t care
besides clarisse has someone else to impass all her wisdom onto
the hurricane that is ivy.
she definitely wasnā€™t born with that natural effortlessness that danny and clarisse have, but she works 10x as hard and absolutely loves the feeling of a sword in her hand she has the PASSION and that is much more important than natural ability tbh
anyways. every once in a while yā€™all will have sleepovers and you barely fit itā€™s hilariousā€¦ pretending that camp counselors once again have a room at the back with a slightly bigger bed
clarisse is in the middle, youā€™re on one side, danny on the other, and ivy is fully spread out sideways on top of yā€™all
ivy and danny are just walking around camp like they own it bc they do, clarisse is scary and will get them whatever they want bc the twins will flash puppy eyes at you who will then flash puppy eyes at clarisse and then sheā€™s helpless šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
anyways. thatā€™s all i got for now love yā€™all love this little family šŸ˜˜šŸ«¶

Rescue bots Aus šŸ˜‹(except itā€™s based around Cody cause heā€™s more important)
OKAY #1
Percy Jackson AU šŸ˜Ž
I mentally created this au around the time reread the PJO books bc I love Percy Jackson and I thought it could be a cool way to explain why Cody is so ā€œdifferentā€ from his siblings. I personally think Codyā€™s godly parent would be his mom (lowkey kinda obvious bc he doesnā€™t have a mom in the show) BUT ANYWAY! I think his godly mother/parent whatever would be Athena cause itā€™s mentioned in the books that her kids are kinda all blonde with gray eyes and Cody is blonde, also Chief and Graham have the same hair color (chiefs hair is shown in a picture of Dani when she was little, I donā€™t remember what episode). Kade is ginger which is a recessive gene, and I think Dani got her hair from their mom or sheā€™s dyes her hair. Anyway it could also explain Codyā€™s age gap with his siblings since Athena just kinda picks someone and poofs a kid out of her head and is like ā€œHere! Have it! Raise this kid just so it can die before 25!ā€ (Real good parenting Athena šŸ™„šŸ˜’) but I think Codyā€™s mythical weapon thing would be like a dagger that can extend into a sword, that or heā€™d probably mesh a mythical weapon with some tech. Thatā€™s basically it, I donā€™t have like a plot or anything šŸ˜­ i just like rb and PJO
#2ā€¼ļøā€¼ļø
Magic powers AU
Heā€™s basically god šŸ˜­ basically itā€™s like this shimmery gold looking glitter mist and he can like, control it?? He can like destroy anything and it just crumbles into the mist/can create anything from it, and I mean ANYTHING. Bro can quite literally create fully functional human beings from nothing for fun. Thatā€™s basically it, I honestly have this power thing in most of the AUs if I get bored
#3/the last major one šŸ˜™
Deadly weapon Au
OKAY I ACTUALLY HAVE LIKE A PLOT AND A MAIN STORY FOR THIS ONE
Basically Codyā€™s mom (and his siblings mom but that irrelevant) was like raised as a assassin and she was super cool and stuff and people called her Medusa (not rlly relevant but I think itā€™s Skibidi šŸ˜Ž also Cody would be called Chrysaor, which is the son of Medusa and Poseidon if ykyk ) ANYWAY she gets in a fight or smth with her dad idk and leaves their like league of asssains (did I mention this is kinda inspired by Damien Wayne? No? Okay well it is) shes in her like 20s and already has 1 kid (half sibling) and heā€™s like 3yrs old and getting trained to be a assassin (also the moms name is Maria) so Maria doesnā€™t gaf and runaway to griffin rock and meets Chief burns and they have kids or whatever (she like froze some of her eggs so while she was gone the league made her more kids idk) anyway so a few years pass and she has Cody yadda yadda yadda, she almost dies while giving birth but the league has been stalking her so they kidnapped her and Cody from the hospital and save her and they raise Cody as a assassin, and Maria is the president of the league or whatever, also her other kids are chill with her just abandoning them?? But Cody is like super cool and a weapon of mass destruction, heā€™s like Batman mixed with Jinx so šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø heā€™s also emo teenager angry all the time. And obviously they canā€™t just disappear without a trace because OBVIOUSLY everyone needs to be soooo overdramatic šŸ™„ so maria and her 4 kids (including Cody) are famous and theyā€™re like models and movie actors and business ppl idk kinda like Bruce Wayne and his posse of children. I like to think griffin rock is isolated from everyone else (maybe not on purpose, but shits crazy there so idk) so Chief doesnā€™t realize that his wife and missing child are famous and constantly getting followed by paparazzi šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø. Thatā€™s mainly it for this one, I might have forgotten some stuff but feel free to ask questions šŸ˜‹šŸ˜‹

Divorced Mort Theory
Despite its name, this is less of a theory and more of a thoroughly-developed headcanon šŸ˜­ Another banger mostly from the mind of @cunningweiner, transcribed by me LOL
It begins with a question: where in the world is Mrs. Weinerman?
She is mentioned a whopping ten (10) times over the course of the entire series, and one of those times is only an implied mention. You can argue Heidiā€™s nightmare in McFear Factor serves as her canon appearance, but Lize and I think thatā€™s just a punchline. We donā€™t acknowledge it as an official Mrs. Weinerman design lol.
Most of the Mrs. Weinerman mentions are inconsequential. Usually, they are passing comments stating Weinerman family rules: Howard isnā€™t allowed to do something, Heidi has to let Howard join her on air, the two of them need to share lunch money. But there are a few mentions on which this theory hinges.
Mort-al Combat writes Heidi out of the episode by mentioning that sheā€™s out with her mother on a trip. Yes, itā€™s perfectly normal for one sibling to take a trip with one parent, and for all family members to be on good terms with each other. But it is also very common for children with divorced parents, typically kids Howard and Heidiā€™s ages, to choose to spend more time with one parent than the other.
This interpretation is supported by Howardā€™s clinical-ass business-like relationship with Mrs. Weinerman. In MMMy Bologna, he mentions her singing lullabies to him when he was a baby. Other than that, of the six precious times Howard himself mentions her, THREE of them are about money. He uses her credit card, he receives lunch money from herā€¦and also thereā€™s that one bit about Howard buying expensive hand cream BUT THAT STILL PROVES MY POINT!! Anyway ā€” last but not least, he complains that both Mort and Mrs. Weinerman got him socks for Hanukkah. Sure, parents donā€™t always shop for gifts for their kids together. But Howardā€™s phrasing leads me to believe that these socks were given as separate gifts, rather than, like, many socks given jointly by his parents.
I also want to point out that, in Ballā€™s Well Part 2 when the doorbell rings, he calls for Mort, then Heidi, before just answering the door himself. Mrs. Weinerman either works odd hours, or doesnā€™t live with Mort, and you know what Iā€™m choosing to believe!
Now, because thatā€™s the most material I can work off, thatā€™s the only evidence I have. Find headcanons below :33
Mort and the former Mrs. Weinerman married young, had kids shortly after, and divorced not long before the seriesā€™ beginning
Mort did not take the divorce wellā€¦but he also wasnā€™t doing too hotĀ whileĀ he was married, so šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
Howard gets his temperament from his mother: impulsive, hot-headed, and self-serving. They also look very similar in the face, and Heidi points it out whenever he makes certain facial expressions, which bothers Howard a lot
Much like Howard and Mort in the series, Mort often played doormat to his then-wifeā€™s demands. I wouldnā€™t say she was a nagging woman, nor an abusive wife, she was justā€¦ not well suited to a guy like Mort. He needs someone bold, yes, but understanding ā€” and like Howard, I think Mrs. W struggles with empathy
During the divorce process, Howard asked for Mort to have full custody. He and his mother are so similar that they butted heads frequently and loudly, affecting the entire household. Mort ended up with full physical custody, sharing legal custody with the former Mrs. W.
Though Howard would rather die than properly express it, he was so relieved when he learned he wouldnā€™t have to live with his mom. He may not respect Mortā€¦at allā€¦but heā€™s 15, for crying out loud, heā€™ll learn. Thatā€™s his dad, yeah heā€™s a pushover, but I think on some level Howard knows his dad tries. Theirs is a tense love, but a love nonetheless
Howardā€™s relationship with his mother is hanging on by a thread. Neither of them have a desire to get to know the other ā€” because Howard is a petty kid whose empathy is still developing, and because Mrs. W is childish and quick to anger.
Heidi doesnā€™t necessarily get along with her mother, either, but theyā€™re different enough to have a decent relationship, and Heidi feels obligated to her. ā€œSheā€™s my mom, Iā€™ve gotta love herā€ type beat.
Mort has very complicated feelings about his ex-wife. Sheā€™s the mother of his children, but yes, he recognizes that she didnā€™t treat him very well. He appreciates his daughter trying to maintain a relationship with her. Heā€™s not sure how to feel about Howard. I think maybe he recognizes that she didnā€™t treat Howard very well, either. It makes him sad but he knows itā€™s for the better
Mort is honestly kind of terrified that Howard chose him. Thereā€™s a part of him that didnā€™t expect it. Thereā€™s a bigger part of him that doesnā€™t think he can handle it. He wants so, so badly to live up to Howardā€™s choice, and thatā€™s why he lets Howard walk all over him.
They both have a lot of learning to do before they can have a healthy, fulfilling relationship, but I like to believe yes, with time, they figure it out.

hello lol I'm back
I'm the same anon who requested saiki w younger sister
may I request saiki younger sister meeting his gf ?
(idk if you do stuff the is like continue form another post if u Dont u may delete this request)
HIII again anon!! <3
yes you may!~ from the last hcs Iā€™m assuming reader is the younger sister, btw!
Yes I in fact do! I donā€™t mind at all! šŸ©·
Tumblr media
The two least annoying people meeting! How cute šŸŒŗ
hereā€™s one from the same anon focusing on just Saiki and sister (reader) <3
Saiki definitely wouldnā€™t be the one to suggest you two meet
not because he doesnā€™t want you to, but just because he doesnā€™t feel the urge to introduce the two of you
so either his gf asked once she found out about you or you asked after you found out about her
or maybe youā€™ve known about each other for a while but never got a chance to properly meet each other!
actually I think itā€™s mostly likely that it went down as: Saikiā€™s gf came over to his house (after a lot of begging because he didnā€™t want her to meet his parents šŸ˜†). you two saw each other while your were in the kitchen, living room- etc. either you or she said ā€œwhoā€™s that?ā€ and Saiki said ā€œmy sister/gfā€ as he pulled gf away to his room :)
so you probably only have seen each other before
donā€™t get me wrong he loves the both of you dearly, but heā€™s just not the type of guy to bring up his loved ones in a conversation unless asked, and even then it has to be with good reason šŸ˜…
-now for the actual meeting!! šŸ¤—
Saiki would literally sit you two down in his room and go ā€œ(you), this is (gf), (gf), this is (you)ā€
youā€™d have to carry the convo from there unless you want it to be that shortā€¦.
Thatā€™d be beneficial if your super introverted like Saiki, but was just kinda curious as to who she was šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
I donā€™t feel his gf would be a super extrovertā€¦ but Iā€™ll put a little scenario for both personalities anyway :)
if sheā€™s extroverted/regularly friendly,
sheā€™d probably reintroduce herself with her full name, and ask some questions about you! Sheā€™ll find you cute and start to think of you as a sister in law almost..! Itā€™s kinda too soon since her and Saiki arenā€™t married yet but since theyā€™re definitely trying to keep this relationship a secret from you and your brotherā€™s parents..youā€™ll be the first wedding invite!! <3
She starts to basically ā€œadoptā€ you LOL!
takes you out to fun spas and has girl time with you!! Itā€™s so cute! šŸ¤—šŸ’—šŸ’—
if she has siblings she low key favors you over themā€¦..šŸ˜
As for a more introverted/calm gf,
sheā€™d probably just (maybe awkwardly) say hi and wave a bit
once again..! hope your extroverted or the conversation will die off thereā€¦you end up just returning to your room and wondering questions about her, instead of asking them out loud. šŸ˜…
eventually I do think you twoā€™ll warm up. maybe you wonā€™t go out as often since sheā€™s introverted, even if your not. Buuut..! the both of you still have plenty of fun together!! šŸ’—
she gifts you stuff whenever she comes over and will indulge in your likes/hobbies with you! <33
now letā€™s completely flip the switchā€”just for fun šŸ¤©
if your jealous/dislike her (one sided),
eek..tbh I donā€™t think Kusuo would be willing to break up with her just because you dislike her. Youā€™d have to give a really good and truthful reason for him to do that.
soooo youā€™d pretty much just scowl at her whenever she comes over.. :(
if your upset because you think sheā€™s stealing Kusuo away from you- honey just ask to hang out with your big brother šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø
youā€™d likely get along if youā€™d just communicate that
if itā€™s for some other reason Kusuo will just ignore you (unless itā€™s valid, as stated), and his gf gives you a confused look before moving onā€¦šŸ—æ
on the other handā€¦ā€¦ā—ļø
if sheā€™s jealous/dislikes you (one sided),
sheā€™s now the one giving you the cold shoulder, always sticking her nose up at you and telling Kusuo your being annoying šŸ˜’
ick..
anyway Kusuo would ask her what she doesnā€™t like about you and unless itā€™s valid heā€™ll just keep you separated
honestly I canā€™t see him sticking with someone stuck up anyway so karma šŸ˜‚
But if sheā€™s not snobby and acts normally, yk? Like pretending you like them until they leave to be polite type normal- šŸ˜ƒ then he really just tries to keep you apart
Say you actually did something to make her dislike you, heā€™ll use his powers to give a (harmless) revenge and teach you a lesson- (LOL)
either that or he snitches if itā€™s a situation thatā€™s easier for his mom to handle (especially since I feel yā€™all mom would love his gf)
if you dislike each other,
now thatā€™s a whole different story. He loves you both and really doesnā€™t know what to do about it. Would first try to talk it out with yā€™all cuz heā€™s not gonna betray one for the other, he gives unbiased opinions and if no oneā€™s right heā€™ll help you comprise some sort of peace treaty.
Now, whoever breaks it is the one in the wrong. Ik big brains right? šŸ˜¼
On another note,
if your chaotic like his friends heā€™ll try to keep you two from meeting for as long a possible. Whichā€¦considering his luck you meet fairly quickly regardless šŸ˜†šŸ¤œšŸ’„
his gf wonā€™t notice how chaotic you are (like how most ppl w/ out powers are oblivious) and will love you anyway! ā˜ŗļø I mean..unless your a weirdo chaotic like nendo šŸ˜‚
Imagine you start liking each other more than him heā€™s gonna be pretty darn tiggered-
he uses his powers to get your likeability meters for each other to go down juuust a bit! šŸ˜
something to get you to dislike in the other but not enough to wanna stop being friends šŸ—暟˜ƒ
helping him keep gf away from Kuusuke is a must after you learn of herā€¼ļø (yā€™all parents too) he knows itā€™ll inevitably happen at LEAST once but if he could minimize it to JUST once thatā€™ll be enough for him šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
you race her all over the city while trying to come up with an excuse as to why, while Kusuo plays a game with Kuusuke to distract him šŸ˜’
as painful as it is, itā€™s better than your eldest brother meeting his gf- he just knows it wonā€™t go well šŸ™„
or not- šŸ˜€ if your chaotic along with said Kuusukeā€¦.then itā€™ll be a war- refer to my previous hcs to know what Iā€™m talking about ā˜ŗļøšŸ’—
In this case you would be keeping tabs on Kusuo to update Kuusuke as to where they are, so he can pop up and be like ā€œheyyy brother heard you were in town- oh! Whoā€™s this? šŸ˜ā€
ORRR going with Kusuo and his gf so if he wants to teleport he canā€™t! Bc then if the gf goes ā€œhuh?ā€¦.Did we just teleport?!ā€ and Saiki says ā€œhm? noā€¦?ā€ You can be like ā€œhuh!? Yeah we did!! I swear we were just in that store over there! (šŸ¤Ŗ)ā€ and that way sheā€™ll have confirmation as to what just happened šŸ˜Š then!!
Kuusuke will use the confusion to sneak up on Kusuo and introduce himself šŸ˜œ
Btw this is in the case heā€™d want to keep his powers away from his gf as long as possible, since he already views it as a nuisance himself and doesnā€™t want her to ask to use them- šŸ˜‚ļæ½ļæ½ļæ½ā€ā™€ļø
I had way more to write abt this topic than I thought I would!! I must say, I rather enjoyed this myself! Hope you did too my love~

Window pt 1
Steve doesnā€™t realize quite how much heā€™s put on recently (or how enamored to a certain metalhead heā€™s become) and gets stuck in a window.Ā 
Inspired by this. Part 2 from Eddie's POV is here.
rated: T | words: 2765 | cw: none | tags: chubby steve, pre-relationship, weight gain, steveā€™s bisexual awakening in progress
And, uh. Donā€™t have a couple beers and drive. But, like, it was the 80s, so. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøĀ 
Maybe also donā€™t try to climb through a window when itā€™s the 80s and most people donā€™t lock their front doors anyway. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøĀ 
(Would Eddie and Wayne lock the trailer, when itā€™s just as easy to pry a window open? I mean yeah Eddie has drugs in there but he clearly hides them well enough that even he canā€™t find them sometimes, so idk.)
Eddie isnā€™t home, but thatā€™s okay; itā€™s an impulsive visit, as most of them are, so Steve knows what to do. He goes into it all confident and cocky because heā€™s pretty sure itā€™ll be easier than the other times heā€™s done it because the porch is right there, no drainpipe climbing required or nosey younger sibling to catch him at it with a look of annoyed disgust that will echo down through the years.Ā 
Mike still looks at him like that, no matter how many free rides or free movies he and his friends manage to wring out of Steve, which is, in Steveā€™s opinion, really dumb of the kid. He doesnā€™t even like Nancy like that anymore, for fuckā€™s sake, get over it Mike. (And itā€™s easier to go off on a tangent in his head about Mike than really examine the comparison between climbing into Nancyā€™s room and climbing into Eddieā€™s, so Steve is just rolling with it.)
Anyway, the point is, heā€™s got this. He pulls the BMW up a respectful distance away so that Eddie and Wayne will still have room to park later in case heā€™s here that long, and all but bounces out of the driverā€™s seat into the warm night air.Ā 
Maybe he should have thought about it a little more, because, as it turns outā€¦ he does not got this.Ā 
ā€œDo mine eyes deceive me? Is it the King Steve, what through yonder window breaks?ā€
ā€œHi Eddie,ā€ Steve says flatly, unsurprised. Heā€™d heard the van rumble up, and the distinctive squeak of the driver's side door. For the last hour or so heā€™s resigned himself to standing by on the old easy chair on the porch, chin in his hands where his elbows rest on the dresser just inside the window. At least itā€™s late enough (and Lucas managed to talk Max into summer camp this year) that no one else is likely to see him.
He can hear the grin in Eddieā€™s reply. ā€œHiya, Stevie. Mind explaining what Iā€™m coming home to here?ā€
Steve doesnā€™t want to dignify that with a response, because fuck, isnā€™t it obvious? But he also doesnā€™t want to antagonize his friend and risk being stuck in this window all nightā€”not that he thinks Eddie would leave him here, but Steve doesnā€™t want to deserve to be left. With a heavy breath out through his nose, he says, ā€œIā€™m a little stuck here, man. Help me out?ā€
Almost immediately he feels Eddie step in close, hand on his right hip where itā€™s caught in the window frame, and maybe just a hint of warm thumb brushing over where the skin is pink and pinched. Steve has to hold himself very still to avoid reacting to that, not completely sure he didnā€™t imagine it anyway.Ā 
ā€œOut?ā€ Eddie asks, sounding like heā€™s trying to calculate something in his head. ā€œOr in?ā€
ā€œUhā€¦ whichever gets me unstuck faster, I guess?ā€
Eddie chuckles. ā€œIn it is, then. You mustā€™ve been pretty determined to get in there and wait for me, you made some good progress here. Iā€™m guessing you got to a point where you couldnā€™t get the angle right, huh sweetheart?ā€
ā€œJesus, Eddieā€¦ā€ Why did he have to put it like that? And why is it giving Steve goosebumps? ā€œLook, I think if you just lift me by the legs a bit I can, likeā€¦ walk forward on my hands, kinda, andā€”ā€ He tries to demonstrate, but bumps the neck of the guitar with THIS MACHINE SLAYS DRAGONS scrawled across its front and makes a failed attempt at lunging to catch it, wincing when it thumps down against the floor.
ā€œWhat was that?ā€
ā€œā€¦ What was what?ā€
ā€œSteveā€¦ā€
ā€œOkay okay, it was your acoustic, Iā€™m sorry dude, I justā€¦ Iā€™m pretty sure itā€™s fine.ā€
ā€œSheā€™d better be, Harrington. Lucky for you my sweetheart is still safe in the van, far from your clumsy fumblings, or I might have to call in the cavalry.ā€
Again Steve twists, trying to look at him, and something else falls off the dresserā€”he thinks itā€™s just some sort of magazine. ā€œLiar. I know you wouldnā€™t call the cops on me, Munson.ā€
ā€œYouā€™re right, I wouldnā€™t.ā€ Eddie shoots back. ā€œIā€™d call Robin.ā€
Steve grimaces again. ā€œYou wouldnā€™t dare.ā€
ā€œAnd Wheeler, too. Jonā€™s still in town, maybe he could be persuaded to bring his camera to document this posterior for posterity.ā€
Suddenly Eddieā€™s hands are on his ass, and Steve is torn between a vivid memory of trying to shove Dustin into a vent at Starcourt and a zing of nerves that should not be linked to his pseudo-little-brother in any way, and itā€™s all Eddieā€™s faultā€”
The first real shove catches Steve and his flatlining brain by surprise, jostling him enough that his elbows slip and he nearly cracks his chin on the cluttered dresser surface. ā€œHey,ā€ he calls sharply over one shoulder.Ā 
ā€œSorry sweetheart, did you need a ā€˜one two three goā€™?ā€ Eddie pats at his ass with both hands, tapping out a little rhythm, and Steve has to restrain the urge to donkey kick him.Ā 
ā€œThis isnā€™t funny, Munson,ā€ he insists. ā€œAnd some sort of warning wouldā€™ve been nice, yeah.ā€ His tone is sarcastic, but his face is burning red, and once the words are out he has to bite his lip to keep from saying anything else. Not that Steve even knows what, thereā€™s justā€¦ something, precarious, on the tip of his brain that might spill out his mouth if heā€™s not careful, and he doesnā€™t want to find out what it is like that.Ā 
Eddie snickers. ā€œItā€™s a little bit funny, but point taken. Iā€™m going to give you another push here. Ready?ā€
ā€œYeah, Iā€™m ready.ā€ What a fucking day. All Steve had wanted was to smoke up a little and hang out, like they usually do. And okay, maybe heā€™s a little grumpy that Eddie wasnā€™t even home when he got hereā€” ā€œWhere were you, anyway?ā€ he asks, grunting and trying to wriggle forward with every shove. Might as well talk, get his mind off the vice grip the window frame has on his hips. ā€œYouā€™re usuallyā€”oofā€”here when I finish a closing shift.ā€
ā€œPractice ran long,ā€ Eddie grunts back. After the first few rounds of ready steady go he started to get more serious and really put his weight into it. ā€œThat, and Garethā€™s been having someā€¦ shall we say, romantic troubles lately, and needed consolation and advice.ā€
Steve feels a vague prickle of jealousy, even as he manages to grip the dresser edge hard enough to hold onto a fraction of an inch of progress. ā€œWhat kinda consolation? Been smoking without me, Munson?ā€
ā€œNo,ā€ comes the amused reply. ā€œJust a couple beers. I do have other friends besides you and the monster hunters club, you know.ā€
Which really makes Steveā€™s face flame, because heā€¦ doesnā€™t. Not anymore. Not even a girlfriend; itā€™s like his heartā€™s not fully in it anymore and they can smell that on him. He tries to replace his embarrassment (Eddie didnā€™t mean it like that, Steve knows he didnā€™t) with determination, wrenching himself forward without regard for the way the window frameā€™s hard metal edges scrape against his skin. He doesnā€™t feel the full bite of it in some places, thanks to the knots of scar tissue the Upside Down had left him with on his sides, itā€™s fine.Ā 
But almost immediately thereā€™s a strong grip on the outsides of his thighs. ā€œWoah there Stevie,ā€ Eddie cautions, and he actually sounds concerned. ā€œDonā€™t hurt yourself, man. Weā€™ll get you out of here and get you caught up if you want, I have beer here too, alright? Justā€¦ā€
ā€œJust what?ā€ Steve grumbles. He doesnā€™t know why he feels so stung, feels like Eddie ditched himā€”they didnā€™t even have plans for fuckā€™s sake. At most, theyā€™ve had a string of casual hangouts roughly every other night at around the same time for a months now, but theyā€™ve never really talked about it, never solidified anything.Ā 
He tells himself that he wouldnā€™t even care if he hadnā€™t gotten stuck in the window like an idiot, but if thatā€™s the case then why does this show of concern feel like a cooling balm over his temper?
Eddie sighs, but not like heā€™s annoyed. More likeā€¦ heā€™s choosing his words carefully. ā€œJust, uhā€¦ try to suck in a bit?ā€
Blinking, Steve tries to look over his shoulder. He canā€™t quite see Eddie, just out of the corner of his eye, but it looks like heā€™s chewing on his lip. Then he pushes himself up on the dresser and looks down along the front of his body to where heā€™s stuck, trying to make sense ofā€¦
Oh. His face goes hot again.Ā 
The window doesnā€™t open very far, is the thing, and for the first time Steve fully registers that itā€™s not just his hips that are caught. Reddened skin peeks out from the bottom of his shirt, and some of that is because itā€™s ridden up during his struggles, but he alsoā€¦ makes contact with the top of the dresser, which comes up to about an inch or so below the frame. Now that heā€™s paying attention, he registers part of himself pressing against the metal of the trailer exterior, too.
He used to be pretty trim, but that had been back in high school and while running from monsters and dark wizards in an alternate dimension.Ā 
When did he get a belly?
ā€œFuck,ā€ he curses under his breath, and does as heā€™s told.Ā 
Eddie doesnā€™t belabor the point, just gets his hands on Steveā€™s ass again with a ā€œOne, two, three, push.ā€
And itā€™s still a hard drag against his front, but it works this time. Steve jolts forward, too caught by surprise and still flustered, catching himself hands-first on Eddieā€™s messy bedroom floor and gracelessly flopping the rest of the way in. The carpet (or really, the layer of dirty laundry on top of it) doesnā€™t smell great, but he stays slumped there for a moment, recovering.Ā 
At least he avoided landing on the acoustic guitar, though.Ā 
ā€œYou okay there, dude?ā€
Steve groans. ā€œIā€™m fine. That fucking window looked bigger from the outside, thatā€™s all.ā€
Eddie lets out a disbelieving snort, then follows him in, shimmying over the narrow sill with an ease and silence that comes from years of practice. When heā€™s done, he leans his scrawny ass back against the dresser and spreads his hand in a tada motion.Ā 
And Steveā€™s not dumb, he knows that heā€™s put on weight since the Upside Down. Since finally coming down from constant recurring nightmare panic mode. Yeah he didnā€™t realize it was so obvious, but he can admit (at least in the privacy of his own head) that thatā€™s why he got stuck.Ā 
He opens his mouth to say something along the lines of you donā€™t have to rub it in, but snaps it shut again when Eddie steps forward and offers him a hand up. The grip is calloused from guitar playing, strong and sure from slinging amps aroundā€”and he feels that zing again, phantom handprints on his ass.Ā 
ā€œYou okay?ā€ Eddie asks once theyā€™re on the same level again. ā€œYou were really wedged in there, looked kinda painful.ā€
ā€œI,ā€ Steve starts, but stops when Eddieā€™s other hand lands on his hip. Which is not completely unusualā€¦ Eddie is a touchy guy, very hands-on with all his friends. Heā€™s poked at Steveā€™s sides before, comparing their bite marks, and Steve hasnā€™t really thought about it much before now.Ā 
Because thatā€™s what trauma-bonded people do, right? The last party that had rounded up all the young adults, Nancy smoked with them and she and Jonathan had spent most of the rest of the evening cuddled up together, lining up the scars on their palms.Ā 
Eddieā€™s thumb brushes the skin above his waistband, ghosting warmly over where itā€™s red and a little raw.Ā 
ā€œIā€™m fine,ā€ Steve manages to say, but heā€™s not. His brain is going haywireā€”from the touch, from Eddieā€™s Bambi-eyed stare, from all the thoughts that have been pining around his head tonight and everything heā€™s pointedly not thought about too. (About climbing in a boyā€™s window. About being jealous. About hands on his ass and how it hadnā€™t been a bad surprise, and the thumb grazing deliberately over the swell of softness at his middle with concern bordering on reverence.)
Something in Steve aches, and itā€™s a familiar pang. It reminds him of how he used to feel whenever he looked at Nancy, before he had let go of the last scraps of that dream. Eddie seems more real, more touchableā€¦ He always is, when they hang out, and especially when theyā€™re by themselves. Eddie is a touchy guy.Ā 
ā€œYeah,ā€ Eddie says slowly, distracted. He keeps running his thumb along Steveā€™s softness, drifting up a little further under his shirt until his pointer finger meets skin too like a dazed afterthought. His tongue darts out to lick his lipsā€”Steve canā€™t help the way his eyes are drawn to the motion. ā€œYeah, you areā€¦ pretty fineā€¦ā€
Not once, not for months, has Steve felt electricity like this in the air, under his skin, sparking at a simple touch. Itā€™s why he stopped flirting with the girls who came into Family Video, even the ones who eyed him in a way he knew meant they were a sure thing. The way Eddie is looking at him right now, even though heā€™sā€¦
Well. Heā€™s let himself go, hasnā€™t he? And he knows it, kind of knew it for a while and just not thought about it because he didnā€™t think he had too, but itā€™s getting obvious now. Steve has never felt more self-conscious about his body in his entire life and, right while heā€™s in the middle of reconciling wanting to pout because his best guy friend was off having fun without him, Eddie just had to go and compliment it.Ā 
Steve swallows hard. ā€œYou, uh. You think so?ā€ Heā€™s not fishing for complements, heā€™s not, he just wants to know what Eddie means.Ā 
Still slowly, Eddie looks up at him through his eyelashes. Itā€™s almost shy, which is so unlike the Eddie that Steve has come to expect, but his eyes are big and brown and a little wild in an achingly familiar way and Steve has to resist the urge to sway forwardā€”
ā€œOf course, Stevie,ā€ Eddie says quietly. Is he afraid that they might be overheard in the empty trailer? Afraid to break the moment by speaking too loud? His hand is still just under Steveā€™s shirt, light little touches that Steve canā€™t help but find soothing, almost hypnotic. ā€œAlways.ā€
Steve wants to lean in, because he knows heā€™s not reading the signs wrong.Ā 
But then, at the last second, he remembers what Eddie had said about having a few beers with Gareth. Probably just enough to be a little tipsy. But if Eddie is gayā€”and, like, Steve wouldnā€™t be surprised, heā€™s learned some of the clues from Robin and there have always been rumorsā€”heā€™s not out. Not to Steve, anyway, and Steveā€¦ is whatever he is, apparently, which definitely warrants a phone call and possibly a bathroom floor confession to his platonic other half as soon as he gets a chance, holy shitā€¦ Suddenly everything feels delicate, like there is something there but one wrong move and it could shatter, and Steve doesnā€™t know if he could take anymore shards to his heart. Not these days, not if itā€™s Eddie.Ā 
He just wants to be a little more sure first. Do this right, if itā€™s really happening. So, for now, he only says, ā€œSo, uh. Wanna smoke?ā€
Eddie smiles, dimples popping and eyes lighting up, and his hand gives Steveā€™s hip a little inadvertent squeeze as he bounces past him. ā€œYeah, we can do that. Iā€™ve got a few joints already rolled, Iā€™ve got snacksā€”ā€ Heā€™s already hauling his black metal lunchbox from under the bed and riffling through it, his bright enthusiasm making Steve feel warm all the way through. ā€œProp my baby back up, will you? Treat her right, Stevie, or Iā€™ll be forced to rescind my offer of pretzels and bagel bite pizzas.ā€
ā€œWouldnā€™t want that,ā€ Steve agrees with a chuckle, and does as heā€™s told. It doesnā€™t escape his notice that Eddie just mentioned some of his favorites for when the munchies set in.Ā 
Heā€™s going to figure this out, but for now they can just hang out like normal and have a good night.

I showed an abbreviated version of this mix for my "Halo" WIP last year but decided to rebuild it today (the original was on my old man aka previous computer and after all of the trouble Georgette had in her first few months, I never bothered to put that much of my music on her).
I just initially rebuilt it to its original specs but now I'm going to go through and cultivate it a bit more. The first 5 songs are still the mini playlist that I felt had direct meaning to the fic but the rest are songs I enjoy vibing to while I'm writing, that puts me in the John/Reader headspace. That still counts, right? šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļøšŸ˜‰
This is actually the first step of what I usually do for NaNo but since I'm passing on that now, I decided to do my own thing. No pressure, no "must write [this many] words a day," I'm just going to write what I can and then see what I have at the end of the month.
Hopefully, "15 Minutes" chapter 12 will emerge from this but I'm also open to my muse taking a run at any of my WIPs, from "Recreation" ("15 Minutes" sibling fic šŸ˜‰) to my couple of Flash fics I'd like to finish, "Guardian Angel" and "The Price," all of the way to working on my kinda ambitious "Choose Your Own Spartan Adventure" with Noble Team from Halo: Reach.
I'm not sure if I should admit that I have a second idea for that last one that is, shall we say, Noble Team After Dark themed... šŸ˜±šŸ˜‚
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Too much? I'll show myself out... šŸ˜‚
Anyway, absolutely no one who's read my naughtier fics will be surprised at any of that, I'm sure, lol. The original "CYOSAdventure" will remain PG13, this is a different idea with the same premise, that you can choose which member of Noble Team to continue your, um, adventure with. šŸ˜‡
Does anybody even want to read Noble Team smut? Other than, you know, me? šŸ¤”šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
Tumblr media
Yessir, Batman, sir. Returning to the bridge of the UNSC Write Your Existing WIPs First, Dang it, Ais, ready to venture out into slipspace on a grand adventure, finishing my existing works in progress first, dang it!
Anyway, we'll see how well this goes. Wish me luck, frens, and good luck to you in whatever you're choosing to do (or not to do) this month. šŸ¤—šŸ¤—šŸ¤—

Thereā€™s a question thatā€™s been keeping me up at nightā€¦ well, a few, actually. Is it alright if you answer them? I would be very grateful! <3
Are star witches born *before* they get baseballed into space, or is the shooting star likeā€¦ an egg, that gives ā€œbirthā€ to a fully grown, mature adult? Or do they have a baby-to-grownup stage, where they just stay that way for eternity? Is there a common space where recently-born stars are kept and taught a basic education until theyā€™re old enough for a ā€œceremonyā€ to get launched into the stratosphere?
If so, what was Stella and Coronaā€™s life like before they got thrown into space?
How are star witches MADE, anyways? Are they just likeā€¦ born inside of violent supernovas, or something? Where do they get their clothes? Is it likeā€¦ a two-for-one deal?
What kinds of ā€œcultureā€ and ā€œtraditions do they have? Is it for languages, foods, ceremonies, stories, clothingā€¦ or something more intricate?
Are there any star witches that are siblings or twins? Is each star witch unique and different, or are there some similar ones depending on how they were born? Also, are there any star witches with ā€˜imperfectionsā€™ and birth defects?
Are star witches lonely sometimes? I donā€™t mean lonely in a physical sense, but do star witches ever get lonely when thereā€™s no one to talk to and truly understand them?
If two star witches get together, is there a special ceremony? And do they ā€˜mergeā€™ or ā€˜joinā€™ their respective planets together?
Other than Lambchop, have there been cases of other ā€˜subjectsā€™ being disillusioned on other planets? What do the star witches normally do about it?
And finallyā€¦ why do none of the other star witches share Stellaā€™s belief that her ā€œsubjectsā€ are just as real as she is? Is Stella unique in that aspect? Why does only she think that when no one else does? And also, why doesnā€™t she have the urge or desire to spread her control across the entirety of the planet? I know that sheā€™s not controlling OR ambitious, but WHY? Is there some lore there, or is it just in her nature?
Thank you for taking the time to read this whole thing, I absolutely love your games and all that you do. :) Have a good day! (Orā€¦. Nightā€¦. Idk šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø)
I will do my best!!
I can't answer much about their origins, at least not at the moment, but maybe one day! ===
'Culture' is subjective. Star Witches are so independent that I don't think they even have much culture outside of what we've seen. They don't have foods, or special cultural dances, clothing always changes...I'd say the most culture they have is what's in their nature and this pseudo-competitive society they've built for each other. That and of course, t the Batting of Stars, as well as the ceremony they hold when two Star Witches officially get together. ===
I don't imagine Star Witches to have siblings at all. Some might be similar, but that's probably just coincidence. Imperfections are definitely possible, though! ===
I think this is also a way in which Stella differs from (most) Star Witches, because she does get lonely. I don't imagine a classic Star Witch like Corona even knows the feeling. ===
There is a ceremony for when two Star Witches get together!! It is seen as a big cosmic event and a ceremony takes place if the couple wants it. Many Star Witches show up to this "wedding" of sorts where they use as much magic power as they can muster to bring the planets of the Witch couple together so they can orbit around each other, so they never have to be far from one another (even if traveling isn't that much of a hassle) ===
I imagine that there's been cases like Lambchop on other planets. The difference is that they're dealt with at the first sign of trouble, unlike he was. ===
Stella was just born that way. Perhaps in some ways it could even be considered one of those "defects" you mentioned earlier. She has an extremely caring nature and enjoys the idea of creating and having friends. Perhaps the reason she feels so in tune with her "subjects" is because she feels like they are much more like her than other Star Witches are. Stella's nature is definitely why she didn't go after the whole planet, but I don't think she did it on purpose, if that makes sense? I feel like some part of her subconscious knew that if she were to go after the whole planet, she wouldn't be able to be a standard friend to others so much as just a helpful figure constantly passing through. I think she likes the idea of having a regular friendly community where the people in it regularly see her.

wait a fucking minute i don't remember being congratulated or acknowledge of cool and hard things i did as a child (like being so fucking good student)
my parents were just like šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø because that's what I should be doing anyway

So I thought the Titanesses would be a good side plot for the Romans (main continuity) OR the Wonder Fam in the DC crossover, and looked them up on the PJO wiki. Very brief rundown:
Rhea (Queen of the Titans, Mother of the Gods) stayed out of it, and for the sake of the Donna Troy panel in my cross over or just because of their domains in the main continuity, so did Themis (Titaness of Justice, amongst other things) and Mnemosyne (Titaness of Memory) did as well.
Leto, Apollo and Artemis 's mother and Titaness of Motherhood and... Demurity(?) probably did too. I can't see her going against the twins, given how Apollo talks about her in TOA, and Apollo has a vision of her trying to intervene with Zeus on her behalf. I can't imagine she could even do that if she had actively betrayed him.
We do know she's reforming in Tartarus in House of Hades, but she's back not long after that for TOA rather than trapped with the rest of Gaia's supporters. Whatever happened might have just been her getting caught in the crossfire or something unrelated.
Then we have Theia, Hyperion's wife and Titaness of Splendor. I haven't independently researched her, but maybe a potential candidate for Kronos's side.
The PJO wiki also credits her with the domain of "Clear Sight" and loving "clear views" and "sparkly things". So bribery+ humans destruction of nature as a motivation maybe?
I don't think Eos, Titaness of the Dawn is getting involved if her siblings, Selene and Helios, are faded. But maybe šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø Maybe she wants revenge for her siblings being supplanted. She also has a history with Aphrodite.
We have Asteria, Titaness of Starry Night and Prophetic Dreams. You would think "Prophetic Dreams" would tell her how things are going, but, hey, Apollo still does dumb things. The wiki goes with Hesiod's account of her being Hecate's mother, rather than Nyx, so maybe she joined for her daughter's sake. It sounds mildly more plausible as amotivation than "light pollution", which is the best alternative I could think of.
Tethys is the wife of Oceanus, Titaness of Seas and Freshwater. She's purportedly kind, but if her husband was tempted until he joined Kronos, maybe she followed out of loyalty.
Maybe she's slightly conflicted and is the one to defy both the Olympians and Kronos to reveal to Diana what's going on in the DC crossover. It would work best if it was during or just before the whole Typhoon thing, not long before the Battle of Manhattan.
Then the last we have is Aura, Titaness of the Breezes, who gets no info on the PJO wiki... but a quick google search shows that's likely because what little exists (from a Greek poet, but in the age of the Romans) it's very not middle grade material. TW for Rape if you google it. Anyway, she has actually pretty decent reasons to try and kill Dionysus and Artemis if any of that carries over to PJO's version. I don't love the story, but Rick kept Agrius and Oreius, so.
So I think plausibly, we end up with Asteria, Theia, Aura, Tethys, and maybe Eos as possible extra antagonists in the background of the PJO Titan war.
Maybe Mnemosyne if you aren't being influenced by crossover plans like I am, but I feel like the effects of her hostility would have been very, very notable.
We also don't have an accounting for what Koios (Farsight, Intellect, and Knowledge, the North) did during the war, but he was on Gaia's side later, so he can also be used as needed for plot reasons.

Super random, I know, but I'm having Turgon/Caranthir feels. Guess your request for the Silm gift giving stuck with me :D
Anyway um... can I just hear more about them? Any thoughts you'd like to share perhaps? Scream with me a little about the nerds?
Either way, love you and if you're not in the mood right now, feel free to save for later or ignorešŸ’•
hey there!!! Iā€™d love to talk about these two.
Canonically, I think they probably studied together in Tirion because of their similar interests. Theyā€™re both exceptionally good at mathematics compared to their siblings, and definitely the black sheep in their families. Turgon has the slightly better social skills of the two, but both are fairly single minded and get very immersed in their work. This can either be a strictly platonic relationship or more friendly. They understand each other and what itā€™s like to have absolutely bonkers siblings. This could easily turn into something romantic, but neither of them are the type to know how to express that.
In Beleriand, I donā€™t think they spoke much for obvious reasons. They might exchange a few letters while Turgon was still in Nevarast, mostly about the cost of building materials or how to avoid the High Kingā€™s taxation on fountains.
AU-I do have a modern AU WIP where Turgon and Elenwe are t4t and in the middle of a not very amicable divorce. Caranthir is his accountant and helps Turgon split their assets. They start seeing one another. Itā€™s gets very messy and dramatic because Turgon is pregnant with Idril just very conflicted about dating someone who is handling his divorce. šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

NAMI X POKER FACED MALE READER (whoā€™s Robinā€™s brother)šŸ˜Š
Tumblr media
GOT THIS IDEA FROM A GENIUS šŸ¤ŖšŸ¤ŖšŸ¤“
no but fr this is so creative!! Credits to @purplegemadventures for the idea :) <3
Nami originally thought you were just a quiet and kinda sour guy
like Zoro but probably less dense
she really didnā€™t talk to you much, only when needed really
because of your natural poker face she always thought you didnā€™t wanna be bothered
not that sheā€™s intimidated by it, sheā€™s just kinda like ā€œoh well, Iā€™ll leave him aloneā€ šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
But Robinā€¦
sheā€™s a whole different story
she knows youā€™ve been crushing on that cat burglar this entire time šŸ˜ˆ
yup
she knows every detail
to what you like about her physically (like her hair or smile) to her personality (headstrong and sensible)
You tell her every bit of it
and even if you didnā€™t sheā€™d still know trust
I said before in my Robin x younger brother! reader hcs that youā€™ve known the most observant person on the planet your whole life. YOU HAVE NO SECRETS.
her advice to help court her (cuz your gonna need it) is really to be casual yet genuine with a bit of playful sarcasm
Nami will get bored of a man who tries to desperately impress her sanji
so youā€™ve gotta be a magnetā€”make her want you as much as you want her
And how to do that? Playful sarcasm.
Just enough to tick her off a bit, then itā€™s time to be genuine
for example ; (flirty compliment here) ā€œSHUTTUP YOU DIMWITā€ *charming laugh* ā€œI mean seriously!, (genuine compliment here)ā€
repeat the cycle and youā€™ll start to notice a obvious blush after the genuine compliment ;)
Both you and nami go to Robin for advice and ranting tho
Nami mostly asks things like ā€˜what warnings do you have for me?ā€™ or ā€˜Does he do/have any annoying guy stuff/habitsā€™
Robin always answer honestly, even if itā€™s not ideal to making you sound like a good boyfriend for her šŸ˜ƒšŸ§ā€ā™€ļø
you canā€™t blame her if sheā€™s lies itā€™ll make you look stupid when Nami finds out! šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø
(cuz she will..)
when you get together Robin is all smiles when you announce it
she practically knew you would get together eventually
She low key feels smug honored to be the wing woman
especially since she gets the juicy gossip form both sides
LOL
yes sheā€™s like that but donā€™t worry she wonā€™t tell a soul šŸ’—
robin often has to translate for you bc nami is stubborn
what i mean is when Nami is angry at you and you donā€™t understand why (itā€™ll happen at least once) she tells you what you did ā€˜wrongā€™
sometimes itā€™s just the case of Nami always wanting to be right so sheā€™s really just angry at you for be right this time (..?šŸ¤Ø)
But anyway I feel like Nami would be prone to dating Robinā€™s sibling especially if your personalities at similar
she loves robin!! šŸ’–
so sheā€™s likely to love you too šŸ˜šŸ’‹šŸ’‹
it also assures her that your a good man šŸ„‚
itā€™s likely Robin raised you if your her younger sibling so this puts Nami at ease
(In this case) you and your sisterā€™s personalities are rational, calm and gentle towards those you love
The fact that your peace in the chaos of the strawhats really draws her in šŸ˜
if you have a morbid mind as well it kinda freaks her out tho-
robin is a woman and even tho itā€™s still creepy- Nami obviously seems to be more leanient towards women sooooā€¦.
she might scold you and bop you on the head when you say stuff like that šŸ˜†šŸ‘
you being a boy as well as the others..
not all your decisions may be the smartestā€¦.
especially with the one piece men-
all of them have done something stupid at some point-
so you definitely get scolded a lot less than the other straw hat men if your intelligent
(which you likely are- your Robinā€™s sibling! Sheā€™s shoved all kinds of knowledge into your noggin!)
but with the chaotic adventures the straw hats be getting intoā€¦.Iā€™d bet on you still getting punched at least once a month šŸ˜‹
okay maybe not punched-
she favors (loves) youā€”so you get the benefit of the doubt
but your certainly reprimanded šŸ˜—
so yeah!! You and Nami have a cutesy little fairy tail ending~ <3
With sanji being salty in the background šŸ˜Š
refer to my nami x male reader hcs
A cute and dandy couple indeed
wowza this was sitting in my drafts for a long timeā€¦ā€¦..hopefully you enjoyed!!

Okay, okay, late with this ask, but I wanna unpack the sentiment that Daemon may have been preyed upon by an adult in his family as a child which led to his strange view of ā€˜sparingā€™ Rhaenyra from what would have been a consensual relationship with him.
So, who are our potential suspects?
In terms of family they had a lot at the time of Daemonā€™s childhood, but steadily lost more as time went on.
In no particular order:
Alyssa: the likelihood of Alyssa preying on her child in such a way, given what the book established about her love for her sons, seems very unlikely.
Baelon: if weā€™re framing daemonā€™s potential exploitation as a result of Alyssa dying Baelon potentially trying to ā€œcopeā€ šŸ¤¢ with her absence. Out of both of their children I picture Daemon physically resembling Alyssa the most (see: big ears). With this in mind, Iā€™m not sure how likely or unlikely this would be. Baelon didnā€™t seem like the most present father, though both of his sons seem to remember him fondly.
Aemon: this one is a bit strange in the sense that daemon could have also become a coping device for the loss of alyssa. It could also attribute to some of the unnamed tension between rhaenys and daemon. Maybe she saw her father and her cousin acting strangely?Additionally, if it was Aemon that makes daemonā€™s taming of Caraxes that much more interesting. Claiming a piece of the uncle that tarnished him. That being said, Aemon was consistently described as being a protector within the family, so šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø.
Dishonorable mention: not family, but Otto. Just sayingā€¦
Letā€™s just say this interpretation of daemon (perpetuating a cycle of abuse) is making my abl brain light up
thrilled to talk about it!! always happy to. cycle of abuse goes crazy
edit: read this through and supposed i should add trigger warnings šŸ˜¬ incest. childhood sexual abuse. grooming. dd:dne
i agree itā€™s not alyssa, who also died when daemon was about 3. she definitely haunts him for the rest of his life though - apparently being her favourite despite not being able to remember her, looking like her, both wilful + boldā€¦..
yeah, i think baelon was a fine guy, but not a particularly good father. preferred making children to actually having them yk. i do think he was weird wrt family dynamics, in a targaryen way. way too close/familiar/intimate with (also dependant on) his siblings. currently playing with the idea that baelon was the one to get gael pregnant, because he ā€˜neededā€™ a new sisterwifeā€¦
ooohhh, i hadnā€™t thought of aemon. i always attributed the rhaenys daemon tension to him claiming her dead dadā€™s dragon. i always pictured it a bit like a cycle of vengeance, like rhaenys claimed daemonā€™s dead motherā€™s dragon p much right after her death, so daemon did the same and stole caraxes as a memory of aemon from right under her nose. and then of course that daemon raised an army for/supported viserys during the inheritance council and not her. brothers before cousins i guess
speaking of viserysā€¦.. can you guess who my number one suspect isā€¦. šŸ¤—šŸ¤—
yeeees, i think it was viserys. my friend worked out the age difference in the show and i think itā€™s something like 11 years ??! all guesstimation of course. in f&b the difference is 4 years. i like to place them 7 years apart. anyway the point is viserys is much older and in a position of power over his younger brother, both by placement of birth and then he becomes the heirā€¦
some things that i think come into play here:
1. the targaryen obsession with having a daughter to match a son. see alysanneā€™s comment that alyssa ā€œis forā€ baelon. the second child ā€˜oughtā€™ to be a daughter, so technically daemon was supposed to be a girl anyway and thus viserysā€™ wife :/// also i think viserys would, perhaps subconsciously, blame daemon for not being a girl and causing him problems with finding a wife and eventually having to marry his not-sister aemma arryn, so that blame would manifest inā€¦ evil ways. ALSO what you said about daemon resembling alyssa - heā€™s basically a girl anyway, right? šŸ¤”
2. daemonā€™s sudden not-banishment from court aged 16, to marry rhea royce. coincidentally the year of rhaenyras birth. how he and rhea never consummated. daemonā€™s subsequent back and forth in viserysā€™ court - one minute he is favoured, the next cast out. his complication relationship with his brother, clearly resenting him and his weakness but still crawling back like a dog every time, no matter how furious viserys was when he sent him awayā€¦ā€¦ the complicated love/hate towards a once-beloved abuserā€¦
and so, daemons sad attempt at ending the cycle. my brother badtouched me ā†’ i will badtouch his daughter. i think thereā€™s smth to be said about daemon having two motives in the brothel scene at first, firstly he does love and desire rhaenyra but secondly he wants to ā€˜get backā€™ at his brother, but then of course realises that he doesnā€™t want to use rhaenyra as a pawn in that sense at all. crazy that years later he claims it was a sparing but at the time we know he asked viserys for rhaenyraā€™s handā€¦ in his mind to be spared is from a rough reputation-ruining fuck, not from publicly recognised and supported incestā€¦. canā€™t remember where i was going with this ^-^ something about secret/private vs public
okay last suspect. personally i think a combination of this one + viserys is [static sounds] x_x : corlys. daemon fought in the first stepstone war at about 16, corlys was velaryon commander and much, much older. perhaps the source of that tension between daemon and rhaenys you mentionedā€¦.. how to reconcile your husband with the solider who took advantage of your younger cousin on the battlefield. can see the excuse of ā€˜warā€™/ā€˜all men do this during fighting timesā€™ being used on daemon. older respected man in a position of power vs young second son desperate to prove himselfā€¦.. what a combo
SLSMAJHD OTTO. i am a believer in otto ā€˜groomerā€™ hightower, but i think daemon wouldnā€™t stand for it from a non-family memberā€¦. like with otto he can complain to the king, but what can he do when the king is the one molesting himā€¦
hope this made sense i wrote it in two sittings so it might be a bit garbled ;_; ty for asking ā¤ļøā€šŸ”„

I think one of the things that has puzzled me about Jegulus(insert obligatory ā€œship what you wantā€ disclaimer here XD) is honestly just wondering why James would want to hang out with his best friendā€™s brother anyway lol. This could just be a me thing, but I have two siblings and I barely interact with my siblingsā€™ friends(although tbf the age gap between me and my siblings is bigger than S and Rā€™s age gap, so that makes it easier for us to not interact with each otherā€™s friends lol) so I feel like James would probably be in that same boat where heā€™d rather hang out with his own friends rather than worrying about his friendā€™s brother. Not to mention Regulus was also a Slytherin so even we put aside the house rivalry, both boys would probably be more busy hanging out with people within their own house or at least within their own year. (Obviously Harry does together with Ginny who is Ronā€™s sister lol, but I feel like that was different, because they knew each other from Gryffindor House and Ron and they had already built up a good dynamic with each other before they started dating. Whereas there is no real evidence to suggest that it would have been like that for James and Regulus šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø)
(That being said I donā€™t mind stories where James and Regulus start to become friends-usually in stories where Regulus survives the cave, but I donā€™t see anything romantic between them unless one decides to drastically change the characters and then that gets more into AU character territory imo)
@puppyduckster you make a lot of the same points that I do. @toujours-prete summarized this in a comment on an earlier post: "I already know I'm basically getting fanfic for a fanfic of a fanfic. It's not the ship itself that bugs me, honestly! It's this really weird specific version of all the marauders era characters that I don't recognize whatsoever because it's not HP, it's an HP-inspired game of telephone."
HP-inspired is more like where Jegulus fits. It's not the canon characters at all, which is frustrating for people who do want to read about canon characters in a close to canon way, but Jegulus doesn't meet that (in my opinion).
I'm the same on the sibling thing. I'm one of three, wouldn't ever befriend any of my siblings' friends. They didn't befriend mine. My closest friends do not have overlap with their siblings' friends. it's not impossible, but as you pointed out, with Ginny and Ron, Harry was around both of them multiple times.
I see James and Regulus becoming as close as Ron and Draco after the war - it's technically possible that they became reluctant acquaintances, but no more than that unless we're going AU.
I suppose the ship and let ship thing works here, but like many others, my frustration is with the use of canon characters in a way that's so far from canon that they're mostly OCs. I like a good OC, but I'd rather know up front they're OCs rather than thinking I'll get a canon character acting in really un-canon ways.
And ofc I do like some un-canon stories, AUs, etc., but I tend to look for AUs that still feel like canon with a few exceptions.
