The urge to write an outsiders oneshot where all three Curtis bros get sick and all three of them compiled onto Darry’s bed and using Darry as a body pillow and the rest of the gang freaking out and acting like it’s the end of the world aka learning to take care of the brothers who’d always taken care of them 🥹

“requiem for methuselah” crazy ass episode for many reasons. Kirk is being fully insane, like I don’t actually think, even controlling for how quickly and easily and readily he seems to fall in love with anybody at the slightest encouragement, that he’d go that bonkers for that android woman he just met while everyone on the ship was this close to dying, but that’s neither here nor there, because in the background you’ve got an equally but much more subtly insane episode for Spock, who extremely uncharacteristically admits to experiencing an emotion (or nearly experiencing, whatever) and that emotion is ENVY of all things. And then spends the rest of the episode warning Kirk away from this new love interest (something that doesn’t usually happen, even when Kirk has very inadvisable love interests) and is, in the end, the person who accurately identifies that Rayna’s competing love for Kirk and Flint is ultimately what overwhelms and destroys her with the most killer line in maybe history???

And then to wrap it up we get an equally uncharacteristic sort of denouement scene (TOS loooves to cut an episode off right after the actual climax, leaving little time for falling action or character reflection, or to stick a sitcom-y button on the end where the gang all smiles and laughs at their misadventures and everything resets to zero, which is not a criticism, it’s just the style of that era of tv, honestly) where Kirk is literally miserable over Rayna’s death (again, kind of unusual for a lot of his love interests, he tends to be able to move on pretty quickly) and Spock goes to see him and he falls asleep right in front of Spock (also odd) and then when Bones comes in to give the final word on Flint, Spock waves him off from waking the Captain (tender) and Bones gives him that awful speech about how it’s sadder that Spock can’t even imagine the love Kirk felt for this random android woman than it is that Kirk lost her in the first place (debatable but also rude) and how his great tragedy is that he can’t love at all like they can and how all he wishes is that Kirk could forget about all of this and move on. AND THEN, to have Bones leave and Spock go over to Kirk and very gently, tenderly, reluctantly touch him and put his hand to his forehead and tell him to forget and HAVE THAT BE THE END OF THE EPISODE??? What am I supposed to do with that??

may i have some roadtrip au headcanons/rambles 🤲?

omg yes!! :D

- okay so i’ve been thinking about what the locations would be, like what state the characters would live in (bc this au is in the us) but i want them to either live in maine or new york state, but now i’m thinking massachusetts LMAO

- but midnight for sure lives in oregon!!

- speaking of midnight, she would not be a human!! just a supernatural entity who is living as an old lady since canonically she’s ancient and i want to keep that in the au (and since i think i mentioned before that there is supernatural stuff in this au)

- while on the topic of supernatural stuff, i thought it would be funny if they passed by some supernatural places in the trip and get the whole “something’s off” vibes

- i want this group to pass thru the desert (nevada and arizona esp) and this would probably be where purdy had given the directions they didn’t want to hear (bc remember how in canon they were heading the wrong way for a bit, that’s my reasoning for this)

- okay, so squirrelflight and crowfeather would get into a huge fight (something with crowfeather’s attitude or smth along the lines and it then got really personal) and they both ran off in different directions in a city they never been to before so it was an emotionally draining day for the group

- i also think the group would do something special for crowfeather during the trip for his birthday since it’s summertime and crowfeather was canonically born in the summer [this would be when the group grew more comfortable with each other. when he mentioned his birthday nonchalantly (when squirrelflight was talking abt plans for her own birthday and realized that they didn’t know his birthday)], the group pretty much went “holy shit.” bc it was like in a couple of days after he mentioned it)

- this is random but purdy would be like “ik this fantastic diner that has the most amazing pancakes in the world” at some point in the trip

- stormfur snores A LOT. and he’s also someone who would fall asleep on someone’s shoulder

- of course there’s a good amount of moments where one of them (mostly squirrelflight) would say “I NEED TO PEE” “we JUST passed a gas station” “well I didn’t need to go then so shut up”

- the trip would be like 3 months i think

- at some point the group had to stop at a pharmacy when both brambleclaw and squirrelflight had motion sickness

- the whole conversation squirrelflight had with the group when she was at the meeting stop unannounced before they left for the pacific northwest went pretty much like this:

squirrelflight: sooo why are you guys leaving?? and don’t lie to me

brambleclaw: …we have to find an old lady by driving into the sunset bc all four of us had a dream telling us to

squirrelflight: …you know how fucking crazy that sounds, right??

i keep adding stuff bc i got so excited (like i would be like “okay that’s a good place to stop- wait no i need to mention this”)

honestly part of the reason i've been really looking forward to finally playing light fingers (aside from the obvious horrors and whatnot) is because it, alongside bag a legend, contains a Choice™ i to this day am Extremely Torn About Making. like i've known for ages that the Choice™ exists in this ambition and STILL i am undecided about it. this Choice™ is of course. well. let's just say that by the time this ambition ends, caeru may not be the only catboy around town

What's your opinion on malewife/house husband Adrien posts? I asked this to another blog, and like I said to them, I find them a guilty pleasure: The concept is cute, but I know that would be the last thing Adrien would ever wanna be after all his dad put him through.

I don't think that it would be the last thing that Adrien would ever want. I actually think it suits his character in a lot of ways, you just have to handle the topic with care.

First let's talk about why it suits him.

Miraculous has totally failed to give Adrien any sort of career-based passion and - if we ignore the senti complication - I honestly love that for him! I want more characters with no major life ambitions to balance out the Marinettes of the world!

I think that society places way too much pressure and value on finding the perfect career that fulfills us in every way while also allowing us to put food on the table. Most people will never find that and that's okay. It doesn't mean that you've failed or that you're lesser. For most people, the goal is to find a career that pays the bills and that you enjoy enough that you don't hate doing it 40hrs/week. Along similar lines, for most people, your passion will be something that doesn't make money. It will be something like a hobby or spending time with those you love or analyzing badly written French TV shows.

This brings us back to Adrien.

Adrien seems to get a great deal of joy from being around his loved ones and making them happy, so I can absolutely picture him finding a lot of joy in running a home. This is extra true because Marinette is pretty clearly career driven and she's planning to go into a creative field, so she'll probably have a pretty crazy schedule and struggle to stay on top of it all. Having a loving husband to take things like cooking and cleaning off of her plate would be a blessing and a gift that she'd greatly appreciate, but that would feel unbalanced if Adrien was working, too. (Yes, they could hire staff, but that risks the secret identity thing, so I don't see them doing that.)

If they both have power careers, then they'd barely see each other and I hate that for them. I think that it would make Adrien incredibly sad and depressed. Plus, while Marinette thrives off of competition and staying busy, only needing occasional breaks before diving right back in, Adrien seems to hate busy schedules and heavy work loads.

Given all of that, I think that there's a lot to be said for Adrien stepping away from the working world. Especially since he's been in it for years and being a child celebrity is no joke! I think it would be nice for him to escape from strict schedules and expectations. Dinner fails? Order takeout!

While we're on the topic of food, I really like the idea of Adrien falling in love with cooking. Dude needs a creative outlet and that's honestly a great one (I hate it when people write characters as unable to figure out cooking like it's some cute quirk. While an initial struggle is believable, it's not a mystical art that takes years of practice. Between YouTube, the wider Internet, and maybe some classes if he wants to get fancy, I think that he'll be fine.) There's so much variety with what you can do in the kitchen and the end result gets to be shared and appreciated by those you love. It just seems like a perfect fit for him, but I would never make him a professional chef because the hours are insane and the pressure to be perfect is high. I only see him loving it as a hobby where he can go at his own pace, take days off, and make lazy meals when he's not feeling like being a show off.

The big concerns that come with making him a homemaker are a lack of financial independence and a lack of socialization. I don't see the first thing as an issue for Adrien since he comes from a wealthy family, so that one doesn't phase me.

The isolation could very easily be an issue, but it could just as easily be a problem if he started working, too. It's not as if a job is a sure way to have friends or even just consistent positive social interactions, which is another reason why I don't really see a need to give him a traditional job. You can get a vibrant social life in lots of other ways.

Here are the two big things that I keep in mind when writing an Adrien-as-a-homemaker or similar setup as it is where I tend to have Adrien land for all of the above reasons:

Adrien needs to be active in some organization or project. Volunteer work is a good fit as is being an active stay-at-home parent or some combination of the two. Voice acting is also on my radar, but my default is to have him act as the head of team miraculous' out-of-battle activities. Scheduling meet and greets. Going to see sick kids. Jetting around the world for humanitarian aid missions. Basically let Chat Noir be his "career" which gives him a lot of much needed flexibility for making his own schedule, especially if he's a stay-at-home parent to any eventual kids. I also like the poetic nature of Adrien finally being proud to be the face of a "brand" via his hero side while his civilian side becomes just some guy that people kind of remember from old ads.

Consider having a non-traditional living arrangement. I am a big fan of hero teams living together, so my default is to take the Agreste mansion and remodel it into a secret HQ for the team. Adrien and Marinette would have their own apartment/wing/whatever, but they'd still be surrounded by their found family on a near-daily basis, so that social isolation is the last thing on Adrien's mind. There's almost always someone to hang out with! You could also just have Alya and Nino or other friends live in the same apartment building so that they're over a lot/Adrien has a place to hang when Marinette is working late because you know that she'd do that.

Basically, Adrien's rich, so he doesn't need to make money and he doesn't seem to have any interest in a normal job, so I really like letting him having a unique life where he doesn't have a traditional job. He is a superhero, after all. Unique career paths are pretty par for the course. You just have to be careful to make sure that all of this feels like his fully informed and carefully considered choice and not like you forced it on him to make Marinette's life perfect (I only brought her up earlier because this is a story and it makes sense to design characters around each other). I usually do this by sending Adrien to therapy in his late teens or by giving him some other parth of self discovery.

Do note that all of the above is inspired by my read of Adrien which may be totally different from your read of him and that's fine! I just can't picture him as someone who thrives in a traditional career path based on knowing people who strike me as similar to him and from whom I draw my understanding of how to write that part of Adrien's character. I think that he'd be perfectly able to have a traditional career path, but I also think that he'd be pretty miserable for a lot of reasons.

I'll also note that I'm not sure what posts spawned this ask, so there may be elements of those that I'd have criticisms of. This post was about the general concept of Adrien being a homemaker. I tend to avoid the broader fandom for my own sanity and the use of the term "malewife" has me concerned that I'm implying support of something I wouldn't actually support because that's a new one for me and it sounds incredibly sexist.

I'm not a fan of implying that the default definition of "wife" is "submissive homemaker" so a man taking on a homemaking role is clearly submissive and acting like a woman does while his aggressive, domineering wife is acting like a man, which is the definition of this word that I'm finding online and yikes! Wife and husband are legal/social status in my book. They are not clearly defined jobs/roles/personality types, so I'm not a fan of using gendered terms to refer to stuff like this especially since I do actively try to use gender neutral words in my own writing whenever I can, though I'm certainly far from perfect on that front.

I also don't see homemaking as a submissive act. It certainly can be, but that's not how I picture Adrien at all! I picture him as relaxed and plesent, but 100% in charge of the home and all choices about how it's run. I also see him being in charge of their finances like homemakers often were in the "old days" since they were the ones in charge of things like scheduling cleaners, buying food, and other things that needed strong budgeting skills while the person who worked wasn't actually spending money or managing the home since they were at work. I like to think that Nathalie would prep Adrien to be a wealthy man and so he'd have strong skills in finance management.

rei as a father figure || detco headcanons

character: furuya rei fandom: detective conan prompt: what is rei like as a father figure? wc: 1172 headcanons !!content under the cut!! c/w - spoilers of ztt (haro mentions + surveillance cameras inside the house); maybe a little bit ooc a/n - alternatively here are some not at all self-indulgent headcanons i have of father figure!rei because i dont have one in my life he's cool and i started yumeing him as a joke and now he is. very much in my brain.,,,,, also this was meant to be in a somewhat chronological order but that died very quickly so um. anyway onto the headcanons!!

let me start by saying that i don't think rei would willingly look after a child, because other than conan he doesn't really see a point? not to mention, he knows he can't commit to fully looking after another person (i would imagine he barely manages with haro)

that doesn't mean he's not going to try, because furuya rei is a stubborn man who Will finish any task assigned to him.

he's horribly protective - some could argue overprotective, but could you really blame him? he's lost far too many people close to him, and he absolutely cannot lose you too. he's fussy and can helicopter you if he's not being careful, so you may have to tell him - he's not used to this, to looking after someone other than himself (not that he does a very good job of that either COUGH anyway).

he's fairly strict as a parent, though he's not unreasonable. there's quite a lot of house rules regarding police files and especially organisation files, and under no circumstances does he want you to read them. sometimes, though, he'll ask for your input on a case, he likes picking at your brain (and grinning cockily because he's solved the case already but he wants to see if you can also solve it).

speaking of the organisation, rei doesn't tell you about bourbon for a Very long time, if at all. he doesn't want you to know the much darker side of him (not to say that his psb side isn't dark either), but he would much rather keep you out of organisation business and he never mentions you to anyone else, not even vermouth (especially vermouth).

you and rei don't get to spend too much time together; with you at school and rei working three jobs, it becomes almost impossible for the two of you to at least spend dinner together. he apologises, he really does, god he wishes he could at least have a day off - the psb and poirot allow it, but the organisation unfortunately does not.

rei worries. he worries a lot. he doesn't mean to be controlling or come off as creepy or stalkerish ("but furuya-san this is a little different to haro's cams..." "kazami." "don't you think this is at least a little bit creepy..." "kazami, i need to keep an eye on them."), but for the first few months of you two living together, he installs cameras to keep an eye on you. he's worried, he's scared, he's not entirely sure why (it's just for the mission and he wants it to go well but there's something else there that he can't quite name).

he really tries his best to not be the father who went out to get milk and never returned, he wants to be present in your life, and he knows he shouldn't be making excuses, but it's hard. he's distant (he knows he shouldn't be), he's cold (it's only a mission, other than that he has no other obligation to look after you). but he tries. and he'll ultimately fail, because he comes to the realisation that he does, in fact, care about you.

he teaches you self-defence. he knows that he won't always be around to help you or protect you (if he could run to you in a heartbeat and do so he would, he swears), and the last thing he wants is for you to get hurt. he doesn't want to hurt you too badly during training, but he is a very harsh and strict teacher, he's seen what happens to those who aren't careful and he doesn't want you to end up like them.

good luck trying to hide literally anything from him, because he Will find out. he studied in the academy, he's been undercover for many years now, he's a skilled detective, he knows when someone is lying, and he's incredibly observant: he knows your little habits and quirks and though he may not be quick to point them out initially, but he'll make mental notes and corner you. he's not too fond of asking indirectly or beating around the bush, he wants to know, and you trust him... right?

he takes you out on late night drives in his mazda when you're exhausted, it's a way for the two of you to connect and have some father-child bonding time. sure, maybe it'll be incredibly late when he comes back from work, and maybe it's not really the best idea to drive with your kid when you're maybe supposed to be in bed sleeping or reviewing footage and files, but hey, a few hours wouldn't hurt, right?

when you're of age, he'll teach you to drive. of course, he can be (a little) reckless when driving, teasing the speed limit occasionally flashbacks to m22, but he ensures that you do not break any laws because breaking laws is illegal and bad and he wants you to stay safe (he really doesn't want (or need, for that matter) a phone call from yumi about a lecture on road safety) and the last thing he needs is for you to be coming home with injuries or worse, for you to not come home at all).

sometimes, not always, but sometimes he'll (reluctantly) ask kazami to come over to babysit you (and haro). yes, he knows that you technically don't need a babysitter, that you're a little too old to have one, but he's not hearing it (he is, he just refuses to listen because he's stubborn like that).

rei rarely loses his temper with you, he tries to be as patient as possible - you're allowed to have your own secrets, to do your own thing, to be your own person - and he tries to give you as much freedom as possible, he tries to remember that you're your own person, and that he cannot be controlling in any way shape or form.

it takes him a Very long time, if at all, for him to mention anything regarding the other wps boys (especially hiro), and honestly he doesn't know if he wants to. he's hinted at them a few times, and he wonders sometimes how they would react now seeing him as a father figure in your life. and they've definitely influenced him in how he takes care of you. of course, maybe he'll be a little more willing to tell you about them and take you to their graves sometime when you're a little older.

he won't force you to come to poirot during your free time, it's only a recommendation (he swears up and down that it's only a recommendation and you don't have to come) but he's not going to complain if you come to poirot. he's memorised your usual orders and favourite drinks, and he ignores azusa's confused protests of it not being on the menu - he doesn't care if it isn't, he will ask the manager to make a special exception for you.
