#so it was just so insane like. holy shit we were wrong we CAN get better

[sillylilyposting]

People are to willing to legitimize

Oh boy let's see what she means by legitimize

The whole point of lolcow culture is to ruin people's lives for fun.

No the plan is to extract the funny from it.

So when you come out trying to Critique target is a terrible person but - you've already given it to much legitimacy by treating it as a trustworthy source of information

You don't become immune to criticism because people don't like you

People made careers out of turning Christine Chandler's life into a real world Truman show,

Just call her Chris-chan? Also no people interacted with her videos she herself was putting online, her own website and uploads. Also how does this theory track with Yandev, Nikocado, etc who just did weird things with little to no prompting?

With her every action scrutinized and documented to a degree that serial killers subjected too.

Again she made videos consistently of herself by herself

Without that stalking, without the way people sought to push her to do something to keep the entertainment going, without people actively conspiring to drive her insane, she would not have been noteworthy enough for any of the things she done to be worth remembering.

I'll agree some of the stuff she did was prompted by other people's bullying and prompting, she still did bizarre things in her day to day without it but she still filmed and explained her odd acts and lest we forget nobody made her SA her mother! Just like nobody made Yandev be a pedophile there is no excuse of: "The meaning internet people made me!"

_

Hell, without all that, it's unlikely she would have ever done most of the shit she's done.

Provably wrong

Its only the very fascist harassment that made her actions probable or noteworthy in the first place.

So to try and condem lolcow culture, while judging the target based on information only avaliable BECAUSE of lolcow culture is completely fucking backwards. Furthermore it's how they recruit.

I can't keep restating facts... uh chrischan made video herself! So, quite literally what your trying to do here condem the culture with info avaliable because of it, this argument eats itself, christ.

Every single mother fucker who rots on kiwi farms started from the premise that "kiwi farms is terrible, but they've got it right this time about [minor e-celeb you are way too obsessed with] and their hook are in you. Because your on the site reading a thread on the person you hate, and since your there you might as well read a few more

Never used Kiwi farms myself, don't plan to, you have a plenty of stupid harmful and wrong takes regularly avaliable. You keep shifting the argument as you finish each paragraph, a goldfish would be more focused than you

And now they have their hooks in you, You're a nazi

Nazis, Hooks, Kiwis, scary stuff girl. I wasn't aware Kiwi farms acting like Frostmourne or is it more like the One Ring?

Multiple times in the past someone has come to be about someone supposedly being predatory and linked to Kiwi farms thread going "i know is awful but..."

Holy fuck this post is so long... does that mean the people who dm you are all Arthas?

_

No if it comes from Channer (channel?) trash, it is automatically a lie. They do not care about the things they pretend to care about.

Joon the king, sai, Ant, etc vague post, Journalists cover stories girlie, they can be as invested as they want personally and can push a narrative if they are inclined but the mark of a good journalist is presenting a story as unbiased as possible, I am not saying Kiwi farms writers are unbiased or journalists.

They care only about ruining the lives of trans, mentally ill and neruodivergent people for their own entertainment. Truth, Lies, it doesn't matter to them. Both are equally valid for their goals.

Lily seems to want to push the narrative that there are absolute sources of information... dangerous and vaguely authoritarian. There is such a thing as GETTING A SECOND OPINION!

If you were abused by someone and you went to Kiwi farms to give testimony: no you weren't. you're a liar, and you know you're a liar. You wouldn't be there if you weren't.

Not letting "These people who claim victim hood are 100% lying, and don't you doubt me when I tell you that" slide here

Lolcow culture should be inadmissible the court of public opinion.

Glad you added the court of public opinion, thought you were posting this as you got shoved into a cop car

So long as that continues to not be the case the harassment the stalking would only get worse.

Do stupid things win stupid prizes

And you can't buffer your criticism of it by agreeing with them.

The dumbest take she's made, its not weird that when someone accuses you of in decending order Rape, Grooming, and Incest Fetishism that agreeing to it would and SHOULD make the situation worse for the RAPIST

That POST WAS TO FUCKING LONG OH MY FUCKING GOD!

TIMELOOP GAMES REAL!??!??!!

hi i made a timeloop game called In Stars and Time and this is a whole post about other timeloop games you can also play.

some i liked. some i loved. some i didnt like. all are worth playing and like also listen the second friends and family heard i was making a timeloop game, i got bombarded with timeloop media recs. so here is a sampler in no particular order! NOTE: knowing some of those games are timeloop games is a spoiler. but. you are here. for timeloop games. so timeloop games you shall have

Outer Wilds

If you need to play one timeloop game, it's this one. Please play it blind. I swear to god you won't regret it. it's timeloops in space!!! it makes you think!!! there are so many "HOLY SHIT WAIT I GET IT NOW" moments!!! please just go play it please please please. some of the best environmental storytelling in a game. so many hints in plain sight. JUST PLAY IT

[way more timeloop games under the cut]

Oxenfree

I didn't actually like Oxenfree very much. But also it stayed in my mind for weeks after I finished playing it. that's how you know it's a good game. I really enjoyed the dialogue system in this, and how much the loop affected the characters. and it got so spooky!!!

Hikeback

i'm in the credits for this one because i was one of the inspirations heehee <3 i loved playing it… short little game about trust, self-sabotage, and never-ending cycles. highly recommend it

The Stanley Parable

Listen babes it absolutely counts. I replayed it a bunch while making ISAT, and I got immensely inspired by the dialogue, and how it catches you off guard sometimes? You get SO SO used to the narrator's "All of his coworkers were gone. What could it mean?" at the start of every game, and then for no reason instead it says "A soft wind blew outside and perhaps rain started, and if it did it stopped shortly after. Stanley hoped that he would one day see weather." like WHAT THE FUUUUCK IM GETTING CHILLS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT

12 minutes

ok i know we all made fun of this game when it came out because the story is batshit insane HOWEVER!!!!!!!! i REALLY REALLY LOVED how doing the same actions multiple times would have slightly different outcomes. If you battle someone, the first time you get knocked out in one hit and the loop restarts. the second time you try, you evade the first hit, but get knocked out. the third time, you last a little bit longer, and a little bit longer, until you can pretty much hold your own against your enemy. And it applies to so many things in this. Retrying different things to see how they would change was a delight.

this game is also so bad its almost good, and if you're interested you HAVE to play it with friends so you can yell about how bad it is together.

Zero Escape

it's just a good series ok. escape rooms, and also time loops! the 3rd game in particular goes deep into The Math of how timeloops would work, which i think is interesting. sometimes timeloop games just go "yeah you can timeloop dont worry about it" and others go "OK HERE'S THE HOW AND WHY IT WORKS" and both are interesting!

START AGAIN: a prologue

this game has almost everything i could wish for in a timeloop game. depression. lines repeating. dying brings you back. you get new levels and skills because you're aware of the loops but your party members don't. so you get overpowered next to them and they Notice. just. party members who dont know about the loops still noticing something is wrong. you are acting differently than yesterday. you look sad. you are acting weird. you know too much. how did you know where the keys were? how did you know this would happen? what's wrong? talk to us. and oh my god this game has a sequel? which will probably have Actually Everything i could wish for in a timeloop game? i can't wait. who made this? (its me i made this)

Ghost Trick

ok its not really time loops and more time travel and only for 4 minutes HOWEVER!!!! you should play it. you know you should play it because everyone says so. so go play it

Elsinore

im sure its a great game but ive never seen/read hamlet. so thats a failing on my part. because. you absolutely need to know hamlet to understand this game lol i did like the whole "make sure to find out which events are Important and which ones aren't so you can have The Perfect Loop"! very fun. or it would be. if i. knew. hamlet

The Forgotten City

a friend kept recommending it to me and i didn't like it. its good! just not for me. but if you like to think a lot you should play it. another "make sure to find out which events are Important and which ones aren't so you can have The Perfect Loop" game

Gnosia

Gonna be real. I didn't like the story very much, in part because the game lets you choose your gender but still acts like youre a straight dude. HOWEVER the gameplay was very inspiring to me. Every loop is pretty much just an among us meeting, and you have to find out who the imposters are or everyone dies and you loop again. and sometimes you ARE the imposter, so you need to make sure no one finds out. or you loop again. rules get added as time goes on too. i REALLY loved how quickly the loops stacked up. seeing "loop 100" was such a nice moment. ive been here so long! i tried to recreate that somewhat for my own game…

Loop Hero

Technically not a timeloop game, but a loop game. It still absolutely counts because it's about loops and memories, and what are loops and memories together if not a timeloop. You have your little guy going through a closed loop, battling enemies, getting cards, and making the world whole again by using those cards to make forests, towns, lakes come to life. I am famously a Story First Gameplay Second kinda player, but I did play this 45h for the gameplay alone. I learned a lot about battle balancing and randomness by playing this!

You and Me and Her: A Love Story

you know doki doki litterature club? this came before. and one might say. it's. better. in some parts (and i say that as someone who LOVED ddlc!) i won't say much except it's a dating sim but with timeloops. with a lot of what it implies. why are you dating this girl a second time? a third time? a fourth time? choose another one already! it was such a fascinating game to play, and is incredibly meta in the way it talks about dating sims and visual novels. had a lot of very impactful moments however, i played the hentai version. some of the worst, most cringy sex ive ever read and heard. however, one might say the sex is an integral part of the game and its deconstruction of hentai/dating sims…? no. just play the steam version which doesnt have the horrible sex scenes and you will have a great time i think (or play the hentai version. if you like. to watch. horrible sex scenes???)

Higurashi

knowing this is a timeloop game is a massive spoiler. however, this game is more than a decade old, so,,, honestly if you havent played higurashi what are you doing. i know i just spoiled you on it but i was also spoiled on it and i can GUARANTEE YOU that you will still have an amazing time. one more thing. you gotta play with the original sprites or you're a fake fan

I Was a Teenage Exocolonist

starts as a visual novel/management sim/dating sim kinda thing, until you realize that every replay is a new timeline. so the main character can save people, because they remembered about them dying in a previous one. i wish the timeloop would affect the game/story more (let me find a certain character quicker once ive found them in a previous playthrough!!!), but timeloop aside, it's a very fun game to play!!!

that's it! hope you will find a nice timeloop game you like

miguelxpregnant!reader drabble

————

im so sorry but i can just imagine miguel laying his head on his wife’s stomach as he often does to get her to play with his hair because he’s a big baby and after laying down for a second he shoots up looking like he can’t believe something just happened

“ay miguel wtf”

he just shushes you and puts his head back to your stomach and when he looks up at you he has the biggest smile you’ve ever seen on his face

“oh my god what is wrong with you”

“mi vida… you’re pregnant”

“..what? no baby im not”

he looks like it’s christmas morning “yes cariño you are”

“how do you know” you’re assuming he was gonna say that he had a feeling

“i can hear it” you look at him like he’s gone insane

“hear what?”

“a heartbeat”

“uh yeah.. mine?”

he rolls his eyes “no.” his hands come to the sides of your waist and he just stares in wonder at your belly

“there’s another one. it’s small but it’s there”

“migs..” you place a hand on his face, you feel bad

“i know you want it to be true but i think i would know if i was over a month pregnant” (heartbeats develop around 35 days)

he just brings your hand down gently still smiling like a madman but then he looks at you very seriously “baby when was your last period”

you think about it for a second. you’ve been literally so wrapped up in work you hadn’t even noticed. your hand comes up to your mouth

“oh my god.”

he’s practically beaming at you but you.. just feel nauseous. “holy shit”

you spring up and run to the bathroom and lock yourself in. you hadn’t told him but you’d stashed a couple tests under the sink. you pulled every single one out and used all three.

he’s outside the bathroom door knocking repeatedly begging you to come out or let him in but you just sit on the floor too scared to look.

“bebe please come out”

“no”

“mi amor i will break this door down”

“don’t you dare”

you heard him sigh and slide down the wall to sit on the floor outside the door.

you wanted this. eventually. you were sure of it but you had expected it to be planned, you weren’t even off the pill yet.

your hands were trembling as you finally picked the test up and flipped the first one over.

and then the second

and then the third.

you sat on the floor a while longer to process. a few minutes later you finally open the door and his head turns to you, face full of concern. you put your hand on his shoulder so he doesn’t get up. you take a shaky breath and hand him the test

he takes it from your hand gently. his eyes widen as he reads it. he looks back up at you. your eyes are puffy you’d clearly been crying but before he can say something like “we have other options” “we don’t have to do this yet if you’re not ready” (which is exactly what he was about to say)

you look at him dead serious and threaten “if you baby me or smother me or try to keep me from working i will make you wish you were never born” but he isn’t even listening he just throws the test aside and pulls you down into his arms. you feel his shoulders shudder slightly

“miggy are you crying?”

he sniffles and looks down as you tip his face up with your hands

“aww mi cielo why are you crying”

“i just never thought i’d get another chance”

you wipe the tears from his face with your thumbs gently.

“well i guess we’re gonna have six kids now”

“six?”

“yeah”

he rolls his eyes even as another tear sneaks it’s way down his cheek “the spider teens are not our children”

“really? because we’ve essentially adopted all five of em”

“speak for yourself”

“oh come on migs i know you love em, even hobie”

“no.”

“mmmhm. i think i’m gonna ask him to be the godfather oo or maybe peter b”

his voice is firm but his face is soft and his eyes are still staring at you like you’re a real life angel he shakes his head gently “you will do no such thing cariño”

“don’t tell me you were planning on asking lego spider man”

“i-“

“god the attachment you have to that piece of plastic is concerning”

“don’t disrespect him like that”

————

the ending was not planned but it made me giggle and i hope you enjoyed

Hi, I hope your day is going well! 🫶🏻Omg the zodiac ask is such a cute idea!! If it's still open can I do one? 🥹 tiny 5'2 libra, she/her, love Halloween, just waiting for a man to toss me around like a ragdoll and not be afraid I'll break in the process tbh lol

Omg hello!! I also love Halloween ;) it’s my favorite holiday 🕷️🎃 and these asks started out with just a zodiac sign and a pronoun, now everyone has been sending me their hobbies and kinks and I LOVE IT SO SO MUCH LMAO.

You want to be treated like a ragdoll?? Sounds like you already know who you’re getting, Libra 😅 holy shit you’re gonna eat this up, I already know 🔮

_______________________________________________

Toji Fushiguro takes you to Spirit Halloween (smut)

You got…🥁🥁🥁

Toji Fushiguro!

“I don’t even think that Spirit Halloween is open yet. It’s September,” Toji said flatly. He was busy eating some dumplings as you rambled on and on about preparing for Halloween.

“Oh, trust me. They’re open. We have to go now, Toji!! Come on!” You weren’t above begging. You knew that Toji was weak for you and would give you whatever you wanted if you begged for it. He seemed like such a rough man, and maybe he was, but he had a soft spot for you.

The two of you did end up taking your little shopping trip to Spirit Halloween. Toji followed you down the aisles aimlessly. He clearly didn’t know where to go so he just allowed you to take the lead. He totally wasn’t doing that just to stare at your cute ass 👀

He did pull a slutty nurse costume off the rack once, smirking as he handed it to you.

“Wanna take this one home?” He asked. You ended up swatting at his arm as you rolled your eyes.

Toji would definitely try a few of the animatronics, but he would just stand there with his hands shoved into his pockets. Completely unfazed by the jumpscares.

“What’s wrong, Toji? Aren’t you scared of those?” You questioned sweetly.

Your boyfriend scoffed.

“I’m scarier.”

…That was probably true. You had no idea what Toji did for work, but he did tell you that it was a dangerous job. That was kinda hot though. Jesus, you’re fucked up for liking that 😅

Eventually, the two of you would wander into the mask aisle. Toji jokingly put on a Michael Myers mask. He did it to be funny. But once he saw the insane blush on your cheeks, he started to catch on. His tiny girlfriend wasn’t just interested in Halloween for innocent reasons. She had a goddamn mask kink.

_______

You stared up at the Michael Myers mask, panting desperately as Toji’s cock drilled into your tight pussy. Your legs were spread impossibly wide to make room for him.

Toji’s waist was huge compared to your own, his chiseled abs glistening with sweat. He was breathing heavily as he fucked you good. But the panting sounds only reminded you of Myers even more. You could see your boyfriend’s sharp gaze peering down at you through the mask.

“Fuck, you’re such a whore,” Toji growled. “Thought you were innocent. Guess I was wrong.”

He held your waist firmly with his large hands. You wouldn’t be able to push him away if you wanted to stop. The thought of that made your brain turn to mush.

“Y-yes! I’m a whore for you, Toji…P-please don’t stop!” You begged even more. Your voice sounded so shrill and weak. You gasped with every sharp thrust.

Toji moaned lowly from the feeling of your tight pussy wrapped around his shaft. He was slamming right into your G-spot with every movement. It made you arch your back from the sensations.

“Shit…Can’t even fit all of me inside, huh? Such a pathetic little girl. I could break you, y’know.”

Toji knew how much you liked the size difference. He always brought attention to it whenever you had sex. It was difficult for him to achieve an orgasm with you due to your small pussy. Therefore he could last a lot longer, which you never complained about. You loved feeling him inside. And…That Myers mask was insanely hot.

“Y’er so fuckin’ wet from this mask,” Toji hissed. He grabbed your breast roughly and squeezed it with his powerful hand. You keened, whimpering and yelping as he picked up the pace.

“Ya like gettin’ fucked by a murderer, huh?”

You nodded your head enthusiastically, unable to form words any longer.

Toji smirked behind the mask. Little did you know, you actually got fucked by a murderer every night. ;)

Do you…Do you guys think Scott Cawthon knows what a frontal lobe is? Do you guys know what the frontal lobe is? Because I feel like some people don’t know how much brain that is.

Like holy shit (Brain facts below the cut)

Okay hi welcome to brain facts. So the fascinating thing about human brains is that the basic stuff is in the brain stem and towards the back of the brain, so things like breathing, digestion, and other stuff you do without thinking about it are all back there. The more complex stuff is in the front. Your frontal lobe in particular controls your speech (in an area called Broca’s area I think), motor function and personality. Less severe damage can result in lack of social awareness or increased impulsivity. But we aren’t talking about “less severe” damage so let’s get to the good stuff.

In the 1840s sometime, a man named Phineas Gage had a giant ass metal pole blown (with some sort of explosive gunpowder) through his head (entering under his cheek and exiting the top of his head) and survived. I don’t really think I can do justice how insane this is, but google it if you want to see a photo of a guy holding a rod that went through his head and a couple recreations of it. Gage was alive after this, and was mostly fine except for he had severe personality changes and intense epileptic seizures. What I’m getting at with this is that because the rod shot through his frontal lobe (FNaF reference) he was fine and actually survived about 13 years (just with the personality of an asshole) before he died of a seizure.

A lobotomy was an extremely popular practice in the 1950s that was intended to cure mental illness. Of course nobody knew what was going on back then so really sometimes they were just “curing” like hysteria or melancholy or whatever. The procedure, in its most popular form, involved sticking an ice pick up through a patient’s eye socket and just scrambling their brains (The frontal lobe) with it (extremely simplified). This often resulted in severe damage to their motor and speech skills, their personality, their thinking, etc. But it did make most people easier to deal with, so that’s good I guess. Arguably the most famous lobotomy patient (victim) is Rosemary Kennedy, JFK’s sister.

Okay, this is a FNaF account actually. So I’d like to call attention to a couple things Phone Guy says in reference to the Bite of ‘87. He says that Jeremy survived “without a frontal lobe” which is completely wild but like…probably possible? However it would lead to like total paralysis and complete inability to form coherent thoughts. And while in The Week Before, Ralph does say something about him “not talking anymore. Or doing much else.” And everyone does act like it’s a completely wild thing that he survived (which it is) but I feel like we should probably chalk “without” up to hyperbole, though you don’t have to if you don’t want to.

But even with it still like…partially intact some symptoms of severe injury to that big chunk of your brain are: short-term memory loss, loss of motor (both gross and fine) and speech skills, completely disorganized behavior and thinking, intense personality changes, creating false memories (confabulation, which sounds like a word I made up but it’s not) and probably the wildest one called anosogonia, which is where you just don’t realize that something is wrong with you (or the extent of it)

All this to say: nothing, really. I just really wanted to talk about this.

ALL I WANT IS YOU

୨ৎ plot: suguru thinks he’s going insane and it’s all your fault

୨ৎ warnings: fem!reader, a little creepy suguru, he follows you around campus and takes photos of u, unprotected piv, oral (m!receiving) angst, hurt/comfort, suguru panics low-key, let me know if i missed anything

୨ৎ wc: 1.8k

୨ৎ notes: first fic on this account hope u guys enjoy !!

suguru thinks he’s going insane, he feels like you’re the only thing that he can think about, he doesn’t want to think about anything else . you’re his classmate, you don’t even know him and he doesn’t even know you, yet he only wants you . he follows you sometimes, just around campus . and on rare occasions he takes pictures of you, you don’t even know about his collection in his phone of you, it’s sick . that’s the only word to describe it . maybe he’s sick

it was another dreadful day for him, he had two classes with you and he made a promise to himself that he would talk to you . he was surprised to see that you sat down next to him . once he was faced with you he almost immediately got up and left, but no . he needed to talk to you . he only wanted to talk to you to see how you were doing, he pushed the thought of him talking to you just to feed his obsession to the back of his mind

fuck, just in his “luck” you chose to wore a shirt jean skirt, maybe you wore it for him? he chuckled at the thought, the sound earning a side glance from you

he was weird, you knew that . yet you were drawn to him, of course you noticed the way he would follow you and rarely take photos of you, who wouldn’t notice? with his frame it’s too obvious . you made it your mission to drive him to a point where he would have to ask you out, so you chose your shortest skirt and sat down right next to him, your plush thighs expanding in your seat catching suguru’s eye

so, he was right . you did wear it for him

once class was over suguru felt exhausted, like he couldn’t take anything more . yet to his luck he had three classes left, one with you . as he noticed you grabbing your bag and heading out the door he stopped you, his large hand planted on your shoulder . your body flinched before you turned around, “hey” he cleared his throat . “hello suguru” your cheery tone dissolved his worries of you not wanting to even be around him

“listen—i really didn’t understand anything the professor said…if you understood anything could we-study together” he sounded so fake, and you knew . you knew that he understood every word uttered from your professors mouth . “yeah of course, be at my dorm at 8 pm” his eyes widened, holy shit did he actually have a study date with you? he nodded as you told him your dorm number

the rest of day felt almost heavenly . he couldn’t wait to get to his dorm and get ready . once he did he quickly showered and changed into sweats and a t-shirt, he didn’t really think about what he was gonna wear, you probably didn’t think about it either right?

wrong . you stood in front of your mirror, multiple choices of clothes in hand . after a half hour of deciding you settled on a pair of flared pants and a baby tee, casual . very casual !

the clock quickly stuck to eight, suguru was hurrying down the halls to you, and as 20:00 turned into 20:10 he was there . fuck he was ten minutes late, “she probably didn’t care”, he thought . you did care, in fact for ten minutes you sat in your desk chair with your leg bouncing up and down . when you finally heard the knock on your door you sighed out of relief . you swung the door open to be met with a tired and out of breath suguru, you giggled at the sight and let him in

he sat down in the second desk chair and pulled his study books out . the whole session he was distracted by you, the way your hair fell in front of your face, of the way your ass looked in your jeans . he couldn’t help himself, you were too much . he wanted to fuck you, right there right now . he couldn’t though, not yet . before he knew it your time was up, an hour and a half of him just staring at you and occasionally nodding, not listening to a word you were saying

when he was back in his dorm he flopped down into his bed, sighing and running his hand through his hair . he already missed you . guess now he knew ways to see you

it became a weekly occurrence for him to go over to your place and “study” . he didn’t really need it but he truly believed that you thought he did . but you weren’t stupid, you knew he didn’t need any of the shit you telling him, all he needed was you . the third study session you decided to taunt him, putting on your lowest cut shirt and wearing your tightest pants . he was in deep now, he couldn’t stop staring at your cleavage, his eyes practically glued to your tits

“eyes up here sugu” you said with a giggle . and fuck that nickname you called him made him go feral . when was he not when around you?

now it was the sixth study session, at this point he knew that you knew, but that didn’t stop him from showing up to your door and letting you explain the lesson from that day to him . this time though, it was getting hotter, meaning he was was in jorts and you were in short shorts . he was utterly fucked

the way your thighs and ass expanded when you sat down he just couldn’t help but get hard . “fuck” he whispered mid through the session, “what’s wrong sugu?” you questioned, your tone naive . “you know what’s wrong” he stated, he knew that you could tell what was fucking him up, it was you . “i don’t know what you’re talking about sugu” you awkwardly giggled, shit shit maybe you really didn’t know what was wrong, maybe he’d been fooling himself this whole time, maybe you didn’t want him

the panic set in and he suddenly and quickly started to pack his books in his cross body bag . before you could say another word he was gone, the door slamming shut and the room silent, what just happened?

for the next week you didn’t see him, you asked around about him, nobody had seen him . you made your way over to his dorm, gently knocking at his door . you heard shuffling and the door opened, he looked terrible . he had bags under his eyes and his hair looked messy, he cursed under his breath when he saw you . “are you okay?” you said with worry in your tone, “do i look okay?” he spat back . your face dropped and he apologised

“can i come in?” he nodded, “it’s a bit of a mess but—“ before he could finish you were already inside and the door behind him was shut . you looked around, this place was a bit of a disaster . “go take a shower, sugu . i’ll clean up” he shook his head, “you don’t need to—“ he was quickly cut off, “i want to, now go” he nodded his head and made his way to his bedroom to pick up some clothes

as he showered you started to work on his kitchen and living room, it wasn’t too bad so by the time he got out you were done . trash bags were in front of his door . “thank you” he whispered, sounding on the verge of tears . “hey it’s okay, it’s the least i can do” you cupped his cheek and he swallowed hard

tears pool in his eyes, he wanted you so bad, in so many ways .

“don’t cry” you cooed, he dug his cheek into your palm . “sit down on the couch, sugu” he complied, the sight of you in front of him as his legs were spread turned him on, the tears in his eyes dried and his sadness was replaced with need . “i want you” he whispered, you chuckled, “you have me” you got on your knees

that’s when he realised that he had control, he could do whatever he wanted, so he did . his pants were soon unbuttoned, his shirt discarded somewhere in his living room . he groaned and hissed as he felt your tongue come in contact with his tip . you swirled it around before taking him inch by inch into your mouth, he moaned and his head fell back against his wall

“that’s it sweetheart, take me” his praise encouraged you to go harder, and he didn’t mind . you started to bop your head up and down, your tongue going from the bottom of his shaft to his tip, he felt like he was in heaven, it couldn’t get better . that was until you hallowed your cheeks, then it did get better

he came with a loud moan while thick ropes of cum filled your senses, the salty taste spreading across your tongue . his hips bucked and you slid your mouth off him, now he wanted to try feel you . he wanted all of you . you moved from the floor back up to the couch, straddling his lap, “i want you to sit on it” suguru said as he kissed your neck, his cock growing hard again

“okay” you let out a weak whine before aligning your cunt with his dick . “just put the tip in, you can take it” you slid down taking just the tip, the stretch already hurt, but like he said . you could take it . slowly you sat on it completely, his girth filling you to the brim . he felt like he could come right there with just the feeling of your warm gummy walls

you started to move your hips, rocking them back and forth . small whines escaped your throat, your head rested on suguru’s shoulder . your moans being swallowed by his shirt . his hands were placed in the small of your back, helping you go up and down on him, you felt his tip practically abuse your cervix as he sped up his pace

“i need you so bad” he muttered, “m’right there sugu” you whined . he was panting at this point, baby hairs sticking to his forehead, his chest was rising and falling as he felt his orgasm approach . “m’close, baby” the nickname made you moan, right into his ear, something he’d never thought he’d get to experience

he felt your cunt clench and twitch around him, “there we go baby, c’mon, cum for me” he spoke in a demanding manner . with his words you creamed all around him, your nectar coating his cock . as soon as he felt your grip onto his shoulders and cum he fucked himself into you until he came inside you . his warm cum spilling into your needy womb

you sat there for a couple seconds, regaining your breath . “i wanna be your girlfriend, sugu” your words shocked him, they shouldn’t but they did, “well—i wanna be your—boyfriend” he said nervously . you stared up at him, your doe eyes sucking him right in, that was it . he was in love

Can Anybody See Me? Part 3

Part 1 Part 2

*

Eddie was wrong. He wasn’t sure how he felt about that. On the one hand, he was wrong and that was uncomfortable. On the other it meant that whatever was going on with Steve he didn’t care about his reputation anymore and that was always a good thing.

He had walked out of the school doors to the parking lot after school to see a Steve Harrington leaning against his van, just like yesterday.

“Harrington,” Eddie said, “this is a surprise.”

Steve ducked his head. “If you don’t want me to be here, I can leave.”

Eddie held up his hands. “Whoa, whoa there. I didn’t say that. I’m just surprised you took me up on the offer is all. Last time I checked your lot doesn’t throw in with mine.”

Steve’s shoulders sagged. “It does now. Now that I don’t have anyone else.”

Eddie’s eyes widened and he cocked his head. “I thought you and Nancy Wheeler were hot and heavy.”

The very idea of the two of them made him gag. Hetros. Freaking insane, man.

“We broke up on Halloween,” Steve murmured.

Eddie blinked. He had been at that party. To sell, of course, he hadn’t been invited. Had even seen Wheeler storm off, but he really hadn’t thought much about it.

“What bridges haven’t you burned?” he asked in all seriousness.

“My kids,” Steve said. “I’d do anything for them.”

“Okay, that’s going to have to take some explanation,” Eddie said, shoving his hands in his back pockets.

Steve looked around the van and gulped. “Can we take this somewhere else?”

Eddie looked over and saw Nancy and some other guy being all cutesy. “Yeah. Come on, hop in. I’ll bring back later to pick up your car when the lot’s no longer crawling with people who want to do you in.”

Steve sighed in relief, his body fulling relaxing for the first time since Eddie started this journey. He moved around to the other side of the van and got in once Eddie unlocked the door.

“Where to, my liege?” Eddie asked with a grin.

“Is the quarry okay?” Steve asked shyly.

Eddie’s grin softened to a smile. “Sure thing, pretty boy.” He started the van and pulled out on to the open road, leaving behind the messy turmoil that was high school.

They made it out to quarry and Eddie climbed up on the top of his van. Steve looked up at him in amazement.

“Uh, how am I supposed to get up there?” Steve asked.

Eddie leaned over the side and held out his hand. “Grab hold.”

Steve looked at it a moment and then back up at Eddie. He looked into those doe brown eyes and sighed. He planted one foot against the side of the van and then took Eddie’s hand.

And was promptly vaulted to the top of the van.

“Holy shit!” Steve said once he was settled next to Eddie. “You’re strong.”

Eddie laughed. “It comes from all the lugging equipment around for my band. And helping out with stage crew.”

“Wow, you have a band?” Steve asked.

Eddie nodded. “Corroded Coffin. It’s a metal band, we play at the Hideout every week.”

Steve bit his lip. “I don’t know much about metal. I tend to go for alt rock bands like Oingo Boingo, Depeche Mode, REM, Tears for Fears...I bet that was a load of gibberish for you.”

Eddie shook his head. “I’m familiar with a couple of them,” he admitted. “Not my thing. But I would have pegged you for a pop vibe.”

Steve scoffed. “I have some taste, man.”

Eddie laughed. “I’d beg to differ, but sure. You do you, dude.”

Steve bumped Eddie’s shoulder. “Go on, then. Impress me with your metal bands, since mine are such shit.”

“My favorite is Metalica,” Eddie said, bumping Steve back. “But I like Mercyful Fate, Dio, Poison.”

Steve wrinkled his nose. “And I thought my bands had weird names.”

“What the hell is a Depeche Mode anyway?” Eddie fired back.

“What is a Metalica?” Steve replied.

Eddie opened his mouth, but no sound came out. “All right, you got me there.”

“I was talking to Mrs Hall today about my schedule,” Steve said, drawing his knees up to his chest and resting his chin on them. “I have to drop basketball and baseball. It’s too late to drop swimming, but I talked to Coach Burton and he said I should be cleared for competition I just have to see the swimming board’s doctor for final confirmation.”

“So suddenly you have two classes opened up?” Eddie asked.

“Yeah, my last two,” Steve mumbled into his knees. He lifted his head with a sigh. “She won’t let me just drop them and not pick up new classes even though the semester half way through.”

“So you thought about what to fill those slots with?”

“She gave me a list of options,” Steve grumbled and dug the paper out of his pocket. He handed it to Eddie.

Eddie looked over the options. “Debate, would double as extra English credit...” he mumbled reading what Mrs Hall had wrote. “Can’t see you doing that one, if I’m honest.”

Steve shook his head. “Me either. I know it’s not just arguing. But I know they can get heated. I don’t need complete strangers yelling at me when I get that enough at home.”

Eddie nodded. “Choir. Can you sing?”

Steve blushed. “Yeah, actually. But I’ve never wanted to join the choir.”

Eddie frowned. “Why not?”

Steve cleared his throat and looked away. “My vocal coach said that I don’t blend well and am very loud.”

Eddie bumped into Steve’s shoulder. “Soloist only, then?”

Steve nodded.

“Sounds like you’d be great at metal singing,” he continued. “Very loud and very in your face.”

Steve laughed. “Whatever you say, man. But no, choir is out.”

Eddie looked back at the list. “Machine work?”

Steve shook his head. “My dad would kill me.”

“Too blue collar for your dad?” he asked. Steve nodded. “I gotcha.”

“Stage crew,” Eddie continued.

Steve sighed. “I thought about that one, but like with the machine work it’s too ‘blue collar’ for my dad. Plus with my concussion, I’m pretty sure either option would be out.”

Eddie cocked his head and clicked his tongue. “Fair enough.” He looked over the list. “Pottery?”

Steve laughed. “Sure, why not? That’s one.”

Eddie nodded. He mentally crossed out all the classes that were seventh period, focusing only on the class that were eighth.

“Hmm...” he murmured pursing his lips. “Looks like what you’ve got left is geology and drama.”

Steve reared his head back. “What the hell is geology?”

Eddie shook his head. “I have no idea, but it’s obviously a science-y thing.”

Steve let out a bitter laugh. “I guess it’s pottery and drama.” He buried his face in his knees again. “I know my reputation is already in tatters but fuck those kids in those classes are going to tear me to pieces.”

Eddie blinked. The mystery that was Steve Harrington was like following a rabbit down a hole, and coming up to Wonderland. “You’re more concerned that they’re going to make fun of you then you are of your old friends making fun of you?”

Steve lifted his head. “Well sure. I know Tommy and them are going to make fun of me even if I stayed on both teams. That’s a given. They’ve got King Billy to follow now and they’re gonna get vicious with it. But no, the real problem comes from the art geeks coming for me because I have invaded their space.”

Eddie almost brought up the drawing class Steve was already in, but wisely kept his mouth shut. He shrugged. “So tell them truth. Tell them you had course correct because of a concussion. Be honest and defer to them in all things.”

“I’m also going to be the only senior in those classes, man,” Steve groused.

Eddie cocked his head. “Yeah, probably. But what else have you got?”

Steve’s shoulders slumped. “Nothing.”

They lapsed into silence. Just sitting there for awhile looking out over the quarry.

After some time, Eddie bumped Steve’s shoulder again. “So you want to tell me about ‘your kids’?”

Steve frowned.

“Burned bridges, people who haven’t given up on Steve Harrington?” Eddie prompted.

Steve lit up. “Oh yeah. Sorry, man, it’s just the...” he pointed to his face. Eddie nodded. “I still don’t know how I got roped into dealing with these assholes, but yeah. There are six of them now. Started with Dustin Henderson. Smart kid, smarter than most adults I know. Then it expanded to his friends, which includes the little brothers of my ex and her new boyfriend, Jonathan Byers, and of course Lucas Sinclair. And then I picked up El or Jane. I’m not sure which one she prefers, most people call her El though. And then there’s Max.”

“Five boys and a girl?” Eddie asked, his face twisting awkwardly. “Congrats?”

Steve laughed. “Max is short for Maxine. But don’t you dare call her that.”

Eddie blinked. “Max Mayfield? As in Billy Hargrove’s step-sister?”

Steve tilted his head back. “Yeah...but I don’t think I could separate her from the group now if I tried. And besides, she’d kick my ass.”

“You are an enigma wrapped in a mystery, man,” Eddie said.

Steve looked over at him. “You don’t know the half of it.”

[1moreff-creator]

DRDT is back!!! Here’s my live reaction to everything that happened this week! Obviously take everything I say with massive piles of salt, these are in the moment reactions and aren’t supposed to be fully coherent thoughts.

DRDT CH2 EP12 SPOILERS (Oh that feels good to write)

We’re back!!! Teruko we fucked up!!!

The theory that Charles was going to bring up the possibility of a wrong time of death was true! There weren’t really any other theories about what he was going to say from what I saw, but it’s still cool we got that right. You have no idea how giddy I am to finally hear him talk about it, after waiting so long for him to finish the sentence lol.

Also Teruko’s face lmao.

Oh, poor Teruko, she looks so sad. She’s gonna bring up the marks on the wrist, right?

Or, yeah, the swinging.

(Does this screw up any theories? No, her body was still likely strung up at 7:30 AM, which is what most people thought I’m pretty sure)

Ah, Whit. I missed how shady he always is even when he has, like, an airtight alibi for the time the fish were taken (which is still around 7:30 PM to nightime btw, don’t forget Nico’s account).

They’re not gonna bring up the time the fish were taken, are they? That furthers my belief that the person who took the fish and the murderer are different. Nothing concrete obviously, just kinda narratively works better that way.

“Or did you do it on purpose?” Veronika how I’ve missed you :D

David’s face lmao xD

“I’ll fix that mistake” (Paraphrased) Hell yeah! Go Teruko! :D

I missed you too, Literature Boy Insane. That “pathetic” voice line was cool. Also, thank you Hu.

J: “The body would have been cold if it was drenched at some point.” (Paraphrased). Interesting point about the water, I wonder if it’s important or not. We know she wasn’t drowned because the relax room wasn’t open at 7:30 AM, right? So I don’t know how she could have gotten drenched.

Ace no genuinely how do you not know how water works what.

“The range of human stupidity is larger than I thought.” Charles, you’re great.

[Levi and Nico complain about Arturo’s medicine skills] Okay, but like, Arturo has repeatedly told you he’s not that kind of doctor. Like you can blame the guy for a lot of shit but this one ain’t it chief.

(Also don’t think I don’t see how Levi throws suspicion on Arturo. Small point towards Levi!Culprit and Levi!Accomplice)

“You shut your whore mouth!” Okay maybe I don’t need to defend Arturo actually, he seems like he has it handled. You good my guy?

Oh shit we actually brought up that Arturo is ridiculously young for someone in the medical field. I did not have that in my (hypothetical) bingo card.

Twelve?! Dude my guy wanted out of that house yesterday damn.

Dude he’s kinda going off! I was not expecting Arturo fans of all people to eat this good this episode, but this is interesting!

Oh right the crazy lady- “Adorable”? Verturo shippers eating!

“Feel free to add to the number of dents in the computer lab” (Paraphrased) PFFFT Charles!

Wait wasn’t there actually a dent there? Wasn’t that a thing I saw on people’s theories? Holy shit is that actually going to get addressed?

[Whit explains] AHAHAHAHAHA HOLY-!

“I let it slide because it was funny” I missed MonoTV too actually.

And no fish! Nico’s account of the fish still being there last time they checked goes unmentioned, meaning it’s likely going to be used for a twist later!

New alibis? Could be possible.

Whit: “I don’t have an alibi. Neither does Charles” (Paraphrased) Which you know because…?

Oh so that’s not addressed. I repeat the statement of Whit being unnecessarily shady all the time.

????? DAVID AND J ALIBI???? This could be kinda huge actually.

David: “Oh. Shit.” This is the reaction of a man being cleared of murder. That’s so funny.

Didn’t David usually wake up late? Inconsistent sleep schedule ig.

J: “Oh yeah, and Veronika.” Girl you gotta say this shit earlier.

Yeah, look, J, you went and made Veronika sad! >:( /j

David: “Whoops” Holy shit every line this man says is gold actually what?

David? Lying? Noooo, how could you say that? I forgot how funny post magical girl transformation this man was.

David I am going to need you to give an actual answer. I spent hours looking at That Video and I still don’t know what your deal is please-

“And she’s Teruko” J’s also really funny actually. Hold a knife to someone’s throat once and they hate you forever, smh.

“Oh and don’t say something like “I wanna kill myself” that’s boring” (paraphrased). Holy shit I missed Veronika- that’s my second fave right there! (Min you will always be N1 don’t worry).

David-Veronika duo is great actually.

By the way David said “the truth is…” I am not expecting a serious answer.

You know, for a moment I actually did think he genuinely thought he was the blackened. But my first instinct was right.

“I would have actually tried looking at the crime scene” Bro what the fuck is he actually cooking.

“A good person” drop!!!! If you know, you know!

Also, I wanted to point this out here, I might have accidentally misinformed a part of the fandom a bit? One point that I brought up was that several important people to this chapter have been called “a good person”, and one of the examples I gave was Hu calling David a good person. Which… I don’t think happened? I evidently misremembered a line where Hu called David a “good friend”, which is a different phrase with different connotations in DRDT, and I genuinely apologize for that. Especially because I have seen people repeating that David had been called a good person in the past.

But now David has called himself “a good person”, if in a roundabout way, so the point actually stands lol.

Oh shit the Xander name drop.

… He was trying to kill Teruko wasn’t he. Because Xander tried it, and because David has Teruko’s “the killing game is all your fault” motive. Oh shit.

Speaking of the “good person” point, that argument might actually be dead lmao. Given that Xander got called that and he’s, well. Not particularly important to chapter 2, let’s say.

[Hindsight Post-Video: Actually, the argument could now be “anyone referred to as a good person is deeply important up to chapter 2”. Or, alternatively, argue that Xander is somewhat important to the Chapter 2 trial because he inadvertently caused David to magical girl transform. The “good person” list in case you don’t recall is Teruko, Levi, Eden, Arei, and as of this episode, David and Xander. We’ll see what we make of it once the chapter ends ig]

Oh Teruko is pissed I am loving this.

Holy shit the voice acting is amazing holy shit Teruko is going off she said Xander didn’t treat David like a human (“No Longer Human” reference??? I might just be insane though) oh this is incredible!!!

Oh he knows something deep. This motherfucker knows what was written in Xander’s “kill Teruko” note I bet.

WAIT HE KNEW XANDER BEFORE HOPE’S PEAK?! HE KNOWS WHY HE’S THE ULTIMATE REBEL?!

Motherfucker you are going to tell us what Xander did before Hope’s Peak and why you know his work or I swear to God-!

Okay actually, David, I am going to need you to give… a straight answer at some point? Like I get you’re canonically bisexual (and it’s showing) but a single straight answer isn’t going to kill you.

Also, the music?! Is peak?!

David: “If the answer is no…” Neat sprite! Just thought it looked nice, and the line’s cool too :>

The return of the Teruko Baffled Sprite, long awaited.

Secret reveal? The killing game’s her fault?

Okay not the angle I was expecting in the slightest. Obviously gonna have to analyze how truthful he’s being at the moment, but he’s basically pulling a DRV3 ending logic thing. Cool!

So… Xander is absolutely Opening Guy, right? Like, I know that was the most common theory, but c’mon.

YEAH HU GO OFF!!!!

Voice acting going crazy too!

I adored Hu’s screaming section. How long till it’s revealed she has the “hopeless child” secret?

Hu’s a queen, hell yeah.

Pffft J’s high horse voice line-

Thank you Charles for being the only competent one (affectionate). Btw what does Veronika think of David’s reasoning? I was kinda hoping we’d see that.

[Red herring joke] Whit. Whit /disappointed/silly

Oh shit I was not expecting that line to actually cause a reaction damn.

You know, I’ll be honest and admit Eden’s really not acting that much like a culprit. I still think she is, I’m just surprised I’m not able to confirmation bias my way into suspecting her through her voice lines :v

Aaaand we’re back to Ace v Nico! Woo!

Okay wow the new alibis are like, laser focused on going against the most popular theories, huh? I’m not going to say anything’s deconfirmed yet obviously, but Hu!Culprit, J!Culprit, even Veronika!Culprit and theories surrounding David being involved have some questions to answer damn.

[To the question of if anyone else had alibis] “Nope” Whit how do you know this.

Levi!Accomplice also takes a hit because Eden and Levi aren’t trying to alibi for each other, but it can be explained. If they never prepared to give each other alibis, it’s safer to just… not, since they can’t actually say what they were doing during that time. And yes, possible explanations like this is why I’m not calling anything outright deconfirmed yet.

I wrote that before Levi three dotted directly after Eden, looking like he was thinking of trying to give her an alibi. Now that’s confirmation bias that can’t be safely used for theories!

Oh right J still hates Arturo xD

[The whole thing about excluding suspects who had an alibi at night and not in the morning] Oh God, Levi really wants me to think he’s the culprit huh? The method’s still too crazy for me to really believe that, but still.

This is also bad for Levi!Accomplice. Not a dealbreaker, but still weird that he’d say something that could point in Eden’s direction. I am not even going to try to defend that yet.

Cool. Can we finally talk murder method?

Levi: “That’s my secret.”

Oh okay, we’re not talking method yet.

…

Wait, WHAT?!?!?!!?!!!?!

THAT’S-! That’s not-! What the hell?!

Okay, so. Cool, Levi’s the remorseless murderer, we got that one right. But, the reveal is so insanely out of left field holy shit…

I am not lying when I tell you I had to get up and start PACING like I was not ready for this. I am vibrating. He just- He just said that shit! What the hell?!

I have genuinely no idea how the hell this is gonna play out. Holy shit I cannot wait for the next episode. It’s just… so peak!!! We are so back!!!

—-

General Closing Thoughts: This episode was awesome! I was lowkey a little worried that the first episode back wasn’t going to be as insane as it ended up being, but wow it blew me away. And it was only twenty minutes? When the episodes go up to possibly an hour??? It’s just… holy shit.

It was awesome to finally start getting some insight into why David Did That, and I’m genuinely super excited to see where this goes. I’m still trying to figure out the exact angle on things like hiding Teruko’s secret, if he even is doing that because I now believe there is a non-zero chance he isn’t actually lying. Like, it’s low, but not zero. I do find it strange Veronika didn’t react to it, though, but at least we got that one line before David started talking.

But that’s only the cusp of the iceberg. I genuinely adore the details we got on Arturo’s backstory, and Hu’s blowup, and Teruko’s remorse- it’s all so awesome.

(The fucking dent in the wall of the goddamn computer room got an explanation I still cannot believe that. Wow)

Props to the voice acting and the music btw, absolutely incredible all throughout.

Btw, correct me if I’m wrong, but there weren’t any “minigames” this episode, right? Nothing wrong with that, just found it interesting.

Theory-Related Initial Thoughts: This episode is… possibly one of the biggest theory slaughters I’ve ever seen?

Like, obviously, again, it’s still too early in the trial to fully rule out anything, so I’m going to leave it to the other DRDT scholars to revise their own theories to fit the new evidence, but wow those new alibis are something. Between Hu, J and David having alibis for 7:30 AM, that’s three of the top suspects who weren’t there at that exact time to either kill Arei or mess with the body. Again, maybe there’s explanations for it, I’m not calling anything unconfirmed yet, just that many theories were inconvenienced.

As for my theory, Eden!Culprit Levi!Accomplice… ups and downs. The more Eden speaks, the less I’m convinced she’s the actual culprit, even if I’m a decent 80% sure she took the tape; the more Levi speaks, the less I’m convinced he’s an accomplice. I’m not going to deny that their dialogue isn’t 100% what I would expect. I don’t think it’s disqualifying, I still believe it to be the theory with the best evidence, it’s just that some things strike me as odd.

That was what I thought… until the end. Because I have no idea what’s about to happen with Levi revealing the secret like this, but… there is a very possible Levi!Accomplice turn here? Like, it’s the “Levi’s holding the glove” idea; the moment Eden loses her alibi, Levi does something that immediately puts a target on his back, potentially trying to get himself voted off before people catch on to Eden as a possible culprit. First he tries to argue that he shouldn’t be a suspect because of the alibi thing, which could make him more suspicious in some people’s eyes (maybe that’s too much 4D chess but it could work), then revealing the secret. I don’t know how likely this is, but it’s a genuine possibility.

Otherwise, I’m… not entirely sure what the angle is? I need to rewatch the trial to figure out why Levi’s talking about “detailing the trial” then immediately revealing his secret. I didn’t rewatch any DRDT before the episode, hence the confusion. But… at this moment, I don’t know what Levi’s cooking, other than possibly accomplice behavior. And even that feels more confirmation bias-y than anything.

There’s also the really weird line where Whit just… knows, Charles had no alibi at 7:30 AM? Unless they discussed it or I’m forgetting something, I don’t actually remember how he’d know that? Was he stalking Charles? Was he just wandering the halls? What kinda-?

(I don’t think that’s likely, but I don’t have a really good read on what’s happening there)

Other than that, here’s a crackpot one to lighten the mood. Mastermind business. I’ve never brought this up before, but I’ve always believed that were Veronika to be the mastermind, she would get revealed early. As in, possibly at the end of this trial, given Teruko had some idea to end the killing game after her chat with Veronika in the movie room.

I’m bringing this up only because Veronika didn’t react to David’s explanation of what he was trying to do by claiming to be the blackened. She was set up for a reaction with the whole “please tell me it’s not boring” thing, and then she… didn’t. It’s possible, in a conspiratorial sense, that she didn’t react because David hit the nail in the head, and Veronika was genuinely upset at the idea. If that’s the case, her reaction could be postponed to the end of the trial, maybe the end of Trial 3, for the early mm reveal there. It’s a very half-baked idea I’m failing to communicate properly ‘cuz I’m eepy, but it’s there.

I rank it in the same level of mastermind evidence as “Nico is unafraid of grabbing MonoTV by the tail.” Immensely silly and should not be considered solid evidence by any means, and yet it’s still probably gonna get mentioned if I ever make a mm probability ranking lol.

Anyways, absolutely incredible episode all throughout. Holy shit were so back, this was amazing. See you next week for more peeks into peak!

YANDERE ! EREN JAEGER X READER HEADCANNONS

TW/CW: mdni, yandere themes, masturbation.

Have some headcannons while I wait for my henna to dry/watch the first season with my cousin.

I wish there were more who wrote for Canon! Eren. Like don’t get me wrong, Modern AU Eren is hot but I mean, fuckboys can be seen everywhere.

But Canon! Eren is batshit insane and that’s exactly what I love about him. I wish they at least add that to his modern counterpart instead of making him a basic bad boy but I mean if that’s what they’re into 🤷‍♂️

Anyways Exhibit A of why Eren in all eras is my fave AOT character:

Like I said, he’s batshit insane.

He has directly killed 2 people by the age of nine, and assisted in killing the third. Although this is out of self defense it still can’t be denied HOW HE TReateD THE SECOND DUDE HOLY SHIT- THE AMOUNT OF TIMES HE STABBED HIM.

Normal kids would just be terrified, maybe be even fight blinding and/or cry, probably even run tf away. But ya boi brought a knife and even deceived the person at the door.

EXHIBIT B:

He’d be a great yandere.

Let’s say that we age up our cast and make 18 the minimum age of enlistment (making him 21 around the attack of Trost).

Trainee Eren has the will of fucking steel. He’ll do whatever it takes to wipe out titan-kind, to make the cruel world he lived in finally know true peace.

To be with you in that new world he’ll build.

You were one of his fellow trainees. Someone who unconditionally believed and supported his desire to see the outside world. You didn’t treat him like a child as Mikasa did, and you weren’t so oddly distant when it came to his help and presence like Armin.

At first it started as a crush. An infatuation towards your looks and kind demeanor which morphed into a twisted sense of love.

You were the only one that understood him, that resonated with his wavelength.

He definitely frequently masturbated to your image. Stress was a known issue amongst trainees and soldiers alike. Many drank to rid themselves of such a problem. But to him just the thought of you two becoming one gave him relief and pleasure that any form of alcohol could never give. In the aftermath of the Trost incident, when faced with your unconscious, battered body he pulls a Shinji and jerks one off. Covering you with his release.

You think you’ll leave his mind once he gets busy with being a titan-shifter and the future of Eldia and such but nope.

Eren only has you and the new world he promised in his heart, body and soul. And that’ll never change.

EXHIBIT C:

Eren believes in freedom first and foremost.

So none of that kidnapping. At least in earlier years. He just wants you to be happy and safe. He’s more of the type to hurt others for your sake rather than be abusive and take away your rights.

Eren in later seasons has the capacity to keep you isolated, and that he will.

Like in other (unfortunately rare) fics of him, he keeps you in a farm land with a bunch of loyalists. If reader is afab! or has the ability to bear a child (for those with abo ocs or something idk) he’ll tell them that you are bearing his child and the future inheritor of his powers.

Otherwise he’ll come up with other excuses like having you as a tactician or war-hero they have to pay respects to.

He’ll give you as much freedom as he can provide while keeping you away from danger.

Though one might argue that his version of freedom for you is just an illusion.

CHAPTER TWENTY: HE’S A TSUNDERE

POV: Written.

— Word Count: 5.8K

Author’s Note: Sorry it took a week for this update :( But this is a much longer chapter than what I normally write. I hope you enjoy :)

— Anything in regular italics is just Y/N’s thoughts. Things in bold italics is Y/N speaking to Minho telepathically.

Jeongin’s whole body was tense. His muscles were wound so tight he swore if he made one wrong move they would snap. 

“You have some rich friends, Sunbae.” 

Jeongin’s head snapped over to you. You stared back at him with a slightly frazzled expression, shifting the tote bag in your hands. He blinked a few times before turning back to stare at Chan’s and Changbin’s massive condo complex. 

“Yeah,” Jeongin breathed. “Chan’s family owns Bahng Enterprise and Changbin’s family owns Seo and Co.” 

You hummed. “Lily mentioned that before.” You paused for a moment, taking in Jeongin’s handsome side profile. I see why he’s so popular. “You ready to do this?” 

Jeongin took a deep breath, running his hand through his ginger hair. “Yeah,” he said. “But, uh… a little warning? I’m not really on the best of terms with them.” 

You winced slightly at that. “Are you guys going to be arguing a lot or…” 

He shook his head. “No,” he said. “It just might be a little tense. Okay, it’ll be a lot tense. But, I promise I’ll try to make everything go smoothly.” 

“Don’t worry about it,” you reassure. “I’m not going to judge or anything. I’ve had falling outs with friends too. I understand how hard it is.” 

Jeongin shot you a small smile which you quickly returned. 

He squared his shoulders. “Okay,” he said. “Let’s do this.” 

The two of you made your way into the building and over to the front desk.

“Visitors for Bang Chan,” he said. “Suit 101.”

The clerk nodded and picked up the phone. She spent a few moments speaking to the person— which you assumed was Chan— on the other side before hanging up. She then handed the two of you temporary visitor passes.

“Enjoy your day,” she said with a polite smile. 

“You too,” the both of you said simultaneously. 

You followed Jeongin towards the row of gold elevators and waited patiently for one to come after he pressed the up button. Your eyes scanned the lobby and you immediately noticed the sheer amount of security guards and other staff there. 

“Security here is tight,” Jeongin said. “Like insanely so. You aren’t allowed anywhere without a keycard or visitors pass.” 

“I’m glad we decided to meet out front then,” you said as the two of you stepped into the elevator that opened. “I would have just tried to head up and get in trouble.” 

Jeongin chuckled, pressing the button for floor ten— the highest floor. “You probably would have been carried out,” he said.

“Oh god,” you groaned. “Knowing you, you’d probably come out and tease me for it. You’d never let me live it down either.” 

“Knowing me?” he asked with an arched eyebrow. “Girl, we've met twice.” 

“You’re best friends with Beomgyu and Heeseung,” you pointed out. “And Jimin has said you can be just as bad as them.” 

Jeongin snorted in amusement. “Of course he did.” 

The two of you hopped off the elevator and started down the grand hallway of the top floor.

You felt so out of place here in your jeans and sneakers. You berated yourself silently, wishing you had worn something a little more dressy or maybe one of the few designer pieces you owned.

I should have let Nicholas dress me up today or something.

Jeongin came to a stop in front of a pair of large cherrywood double doors. You watched him as he stared at the keypad, seemingly contemplating something. A heavy sigh escaped him after another moment before he rang the doorbell. 

Almost immediately, the doors swung open. You couldn’t help but be just the teensiest bit in awe at the man standing in front of you. 

Because Holy shit it’s Hwang Hyunjin— JYP U’s dance team captain and resident “It Boy”. 

You’ve never actually met him in person, only catching glances of him at parties or occasionally in the halls of the university. 

He really is even more gorgeous up close.

Hyunjin’s eyes were zeroed in on Jeongin— who looked like a deer caught in headlights. 

“You know you could have just come in, Jeongin,” a voice said, breaking the award tension building between the two men. 

Bang Chan appeared from behind Hyunjin, shooting you and Jeongin a kind smile. His eyes settled on Jeongin for a moment as he continued, “You know the pin for the keypad.” 

Next to you, Jeongin shifted and shrugged. “I haven’t been here in eight months,” he said. “It didn’t feel right.” 

Eight months? So, they fell out around the funeral?

You shook your head slightly. That is none of your business, Y/N. 

Chan didn’t say anything for a long moment. His eyes scanned slowly over Jeongin, taking him in. A dissatisfied look flashed across for a split second before it was gone. He hummed softly before his focus shifted to you. 

“And you must be Y/N,” he said, reaching out a hand. “It’s nice to meet you. I’m Chan. Lily talked about you a lot.” 

You shook his hand with a sheepish smile. I’m shaking hands with Bang Chan! you squealed internally. “I hope they were all good things,” you said, doing you best to not seem fazed by the fact that you were shaking hands with the JYP legend. 

Chan chuckled. “They were don’t worry,” he said. He stepped aside, pushing a still silent Hyunjin back gently. “Come in. Felix is in the kitchen right now. He’s making tea.” 

You and Jeongin stepped into the condo’s foyer. Both of you began to take off your shoes as Chan stepped over to grab slippers out of the coat closet. 

“Where are Changbin-sunbae and Seungmin-sunbae?” Jeongin asked. 

You couldn’t help but shooting Jeongin a questioning look, thrown off by the use of “sunbae”. You knew they fell out and all, but that seemed way too formal for people that used to be so close knit. 

“They…” Hyunjin trailed off.

Your eyes connected with his. You could see the pain and grief floating in them.

Chan set down slippers in front of you and Jeongin. “I don’t think they’re coming, Innie,” he said gently. 

“Why?” Jeongin asked. 

Chan grimaced. “It’s hard to explain,” he said. 

“It’s my fault,” Hyunjin said, voice barely above a whisper. “I should have never texted that stupid question.” 

Jeongin blinked a few times, eyeing Hyunjin. “Let me see,” he said. 

Hyunjin’s eyes widened. “Wha—“ 

“The texts. Let me see.” Jeongin held out his hand, waiting for Hyunjin to hand over his phone. 

Chan let out a soft sigh and patted you on the shoulder. “Why don’t you come with me, yeah? We can get whatever you need set up.” 

You looked over at Jeongin. He gave you a small smile and nod. 

“Okay,” you said softly, following Chan towards the living room. 

“Show me,” Jeongin said again, once you were out of ear shot, still holding out his hand. 

“Innie,” Hyunjin breathed. 

Jeongin let out a groan and rolled his eyes. He took a large step forward, reaching into the pocket of Hyunjin’s jeans and snatching out his phone. 

Hyunjin stayed silent as he watch Jeongin unlock his phone with ease and go to the messenger app. He remained silent as he watched the younger boy read over the previous night’s conversation, waiting patiently for him to finish. 

“Okay,” Jeongin said, handing back Hyunjin back his phone. 

“Okay?” Hyunjin asked with a tilt of his head. 

Jeongin simply shrugged. “They can do whatever they want,” he said. “If they want nothing to do with this then that’s fine. At least I know what they think of me now.” 

“They love you Jeongin,” Hyunjin said. “They do. But you know those two. They…” 

“It’s fine, Sunbae,” Jeongin said. He smoothed down the front of his shirt. “But never let them say anything bad against Y/N again.” 

“Do you actually trust her?” Hyunjin asked. 

“Jimin trusts her. She helped him. Plus, she’s done nothing but try to help me this whole week and hasn’t asked for anything in return. So, yes, I do.” Jeongin’s eyes connected with Hyunjin’s. They were only about a meter apart and he could smell the older man’s rose scented cologne. “If you don’t want to be here either then you can leave. You won’t hurt anyone’s feelings.” 

“I want to be here. I want to be here for you, Innie.” 

Jeongin took a small step back and nodded. “Okay,” he said.

Just as the two were about to head towards the living room, the doorbell rung. They shared a look before Jeongin reached over and pulled open the door. He blinked a few times in surprise, the two men in front of him seemingly just as surprised as him.

“Who is it?” Chan asked walking back into the foyer.

“Changbin and Seungmin,” Hyunjin answered, quietly. 

“I thought you weren’t coming?” Jeongin asked, tone coming out colder than he had planned. 

“We never said that,” Changbin said, sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck. “We just…” 

“You just what?” 

Chan placed his hand on Jeongin’s shoulder and shook his head. “Let’s not start an argument. Not while Y/N is here.” 

“Ah yes the medium,” Seungmin huffed. 

“Seungmin,” Hyunjin hissed. 

“If you’re going to be rude,” Jeongin said, his tone completely taking on the icy edge now, “leave. Seriously. Y/N is trying to help and if you can’t hold back your snarky ass comments then don’t bother even coming in.” 

“You don’t think this is a load of bullshit?” Seungmin asked. 

“Don’t you think it’s stupid and pathetic to blow something off before even giving it a shot?” Jeongin snapped back.

Jeongin knows he should watch what he says. He knows he should. Seungmin is older than him. He needs to be respectful. But he was way to on edge at the moment to care.

“I get you want nothing to do with me anymore, Hyung,” Jeongin said, his voice smaller now. “So, if this is going to make you uncomfortable then you don’t have to be here. Just stop talking down on Y/N before even getting to know her.” 

Seungmin looked taken back. “I never said—“

“You may have not said it outright but you definitely implied it. And it’s okay. I get it.” Jeongin took a deep breath. “I should get back to Y/N. Felix’s probably talking her ear off.” 

As he walked away, he could make out Chan scolding Changbin and Seungmin quietly. He shook his head a little and stepped into the living room. But, as soon as he did, he was hit by a heavy feeling. 

Jeongin had no idea how to describe it. It wasn’t necessarily a bad feeling but something was definitely a little off. He looked over to where you and Felix were standing, both of you seemingly a little nervous. 

“What’s wrong?” he asked, walking over to you two.

“Minho’s here,” you said. “And he’s not exactly happy.” 

“What? Why?” 

“He’s angry at us,” Felix said, voice weak. “The rest of us. For how we treated you.”

You shifted in your spot, an uneasy look on your face. Jeongin could tell you were looking off somewhere adjacent to him at the moment. 

“Is he saying anything else?” Jeongin asked. “It feels weird in here.” 

Your eyes widened slightly. “You can feel it?” 

“Kind of? It feels… heavy?”

“He has a really strong aura,” you said. “But even so, most people still wouldn’t be able to tell. Do you feel anything, Felix-sunbae?” 

Felix shook his head. “No,” he said. “Not at all.”

You scrunched your nose. “Don’t be a jackass,” you muttered. 

Felix and Jeongin shot you looks. 

“Sorry,” you said. “Not you. Minho. Has he always had a smart mouth?” You rolled your eyes. “Yes, you do. I get that you’re pissed off but come on.” 

Jeongin stared at you for a moment flabbergasted. “I’m guessing that last part was for him and not us,” he said after a moment. “And yeah. Minho-hyung had always been a smartass.” 

“He said ‘good luck’.” Your eyebrows furrowed. “Just ‘good luck’? What does that even mean?” 

“I’ll have to wait and see,” Jeongin said. “He’ll probably do something petty like turn on all the lights again or keep me up all night with his pacing.” 

You huffed out a small laugh. “He said it’ll be worse.”

Jeongin rolled his eyes but he couldn’t help the small smile that made its way onto his face. “It won’t be,” he said. “He’s a smartass, not a straight up ass.” 

“Is everything okay?” 

You, Felix, and Jeongin all looked over towards Chan. Hyunjin, Changbin and Seungmin all stood behind him. 

“Minho-hyung is angry at us,” Felix said. 

Hyunjin blinked a few times. “He’s already here?” he asked.

You nodded and pointed over by the entrance to the kitchen. “He’s right there,” you said. 

“You didn’t have to perform some type of, I don’t know, seance or something?” Seungmin asked. 

You tilted his head at him. “No? He goes wherever Jeongin-sunbae goes most of the time.” 

Jeongin look at you, surprised. “Wait, really?” 

“Yeah. He’s not attached to you or anything but it seems easier for him to stay close to you most of the time. Since you’re familiar.” 

“If he wants to ‘attach’ to me he can.” 

You smacked Jeongin’s arm. “Absolutely not,” you said. “Don’t offer something if you don’t know the implications of.” 

“How bad can it be?” Jeongin asked. 

“It’s awful so stop thinking about it.” 

Jeongin shrugged, plopping down on the love seat. He tugged you gently, coaxing you to sit in the spot beside him. 

“Why is he angry at us?” Changbin asked you. 

You winced. “He’s using some… choice words.” 

“Choice words,” Minho huffed. “Go ahead and tell them what I said. Those assholes deserve it.” 

You blinked at him. “Don’t call your friends assholes.” 

Minho crossed his arms, chains rattling. “They are and they know it. They abandoned him when they all should have stayed together.” 

“He called us assholes?” Chan asked. 

You blinked a few times, eyes tearing away from the disgruntled spirit on the other side of the room. “I said that out loud?” 

Chan nodded. “You did,” he said. “But honestly we deserve it. We were assholes.”

Jeongin just sighed and leaned into your shoulder a bit. “Tell Minho-hyung that all of that isn’t important right now.” 

You nudged him slightly. “He can hear you, dummy.” 

“I am so going to get that kid once we go back to his apartment,” Minho grumbled. 

“Don’t run his power bill up too high,” you giggled.

“Hyung!” Jeongin whined. “Stop fucking with my lights!”

“He’s been messing with your lights?” Felix asked.

“Yes,” Jeongin groaned. “And my water. Plus, he’s been hiding things too. I know you’re there now, why did you have to hide my AirPods?” 

“I didn’t hide them, dumbass,” Minho said. “They’re in the pocket of the shorts you wore yesterday.” 

“He said he didn’t hide them,” you said. “They’re in the pocket of those shorts from yesterday.” 

“Oh,” Jeongin said, slumping slightly. 

“You forgot to add the dumbass,” Minho said. 

You sighed. “And he called you a dumbass.” 

“Love you too, Hyung,” Jeongin said, rolling his eyes. 

Minho grinned. 

“Damn,” you said. “No ‘Love you too’?” 

“He would never,” Felix said. “He’s a tsundere.” 

Jeongin nodded in agreement. You hummed, shifting slightly from Jeongin to set down your tote bag. 

“We can start whenever you all are ready,” you said. 

“Ah!” Felix suddenly exclaimed. “The tea! The brownies!” 

You watched the blond haired man scurry into the kitchen.

“Brownies?” You asked. “As in the famous Felix Lee brownies?” 

Chan chuckled. “So you’ve heard of them?” 

“Lily said they were the best brownies she’s ever had.” 

“Oh trust me they are. I think these are new though. He mentioned something about turtles?” 

“You made turtle brownies?!” You squealed at Felix once he walked back into the living room with a massive tray.

“Yeah,” he said nodding. “I texted Lily last night and asked her if you had a favorite kind. She said you really like them.” 

You clapped your hands together excitedly, leaning towards the coffee table as he set the tray down. “I love them!” 

Felix smiled at you. “I made Hojicha too,” he said. “I thought it would pair best with the brownies since it’s not too sweet.” 

“That sounds great. Thank you, Sunbae.” 

He really is sweet like everyone says, you thought as you watched him pour tea for everyone. 

“He is,” Minho said. 

Your head shot up and you peered at him. “Why are you in my head?” you asked. 

Minho shrugged. “You’re the one thinking out loud, Sweetheart.” 

You glared. Don’t call me that, you grumbled to him. 

He smirked, leaning against the wall he was standing infront of.

“Minho-hyung is in your head?” Hyunjin asked utterly confused. “What does that mean?” 

“Ah,” you breathed. “It’s kind of hard to explain. It’s a part of the ‘psychic’ part of being a psychic medium.” You shifted slightly. “I can usually communicate with spirits telepathically. But sometimes my personal thoughts bleed out into that telepathy and I ‘think out loud’. At least to the spirits I do. It’s kind of like earlier. Sometimes I’ll accidentally speak out loud instead of telepathically.” 

“Can you read our thoughts?” Changbin asked. 

“Nah,” you said. “Only dead people’s don’t worry.”

Jeongin snorted in amusement.

“Though,” you said, “I can usually tell what people feel. I’m also an empath of sorts. Not as strongly as others but I can usually get a gage on what everyone feels.” 

Felix handed you a tea cup and a plate with a brownie on it. You accepted it with a quiet “thank you”. 

“So you can tell me what I feel right now?” Seungmin asked. 

“I think anyone with eyes can tell what you feel right now, Sunbae,” you said. “At least on the surface. It’s extremely obvious you don’t trust me or believe any of this.” 

“I don’t.” 

“Seungmin,” Chan warned. 

You shook your head with a soft smile. “It’s okay,” you said. You took a sip of your tea, humming in content at the taste before setting the cup on the side table on your right. “I’m used to it. I mean I claim I can see dead people. Of course you don’t believe me. Most people don’t at first.” Your eyes connected with Seungmin’s. “So what do you want me to do?” 

Seungmin’s eyes widened slightly. “What?” 

“What will make you believe?” you asked. 

“I…” he trailed off, eyebrows furrowed together in thought. 

“He’s stubborn,” Minho said. “I don’t know if there’s anything you can do to make him believe.” 

I’m used to stubborn people.

Minho hummed. He stood up straight from against the wall and walked over towards you, chains scrapping on the ground. 

Next to you Jeongin perked up. “I heard that,” he said. “The chains. Where is he going?” 

You stared at Jeongin. He has to be sensitive to the paranormal. He’s catching way too many things most people wouldn’t. 

“He’s right behind us now,” you said slowly, still staring at the man next to you. 

“Is that why it feels a little cold?” 

You nodded. “Yea-“ 

You yelped as your head was yanked back by a firm grip on your ponytail by something.

Or rather someone. 

You turned around in the love seat and glared up at Minho. “What are you ten?!” you hissed, reaching up to smooth down your hair. “What the hell was that for?!” 

Minho grinned, his cat like eyes glinting mischievously, and nodded towards the men sitting across from you. Slowly, you turned around and were met with nothing but shocked expressions. 

“They should believe you now,” Minho said. 

“You pulled my hair to prove a point?” you grumbled. 

“Holy shit,” Changbin breathed. He elbowed Seungmin. “You saw that right?” 

Seungmin stared at you owl-eyed. “Yeah.” He sat up a little straighter. “I need more proof though.”

“You just watched her head get yanked back and you need more proof?” Jeongin asked.

“That could be faked obviously.”

Jeongin let out an exasperated groaned.

“I told he’s stubborn,” Minho whispered, close to your ear. You felt a chill go down your spine at the sudden closeness. But, before you could get out even a single word, he started to walk away and over to his original spot.

“Where is he going now?” Jeongin asked. 

“You can actually tell when he’s there or when he’s moving?” Felix asked. 

Jeongin nodded. “I can hear the chains,” he said. “And it’s not cold anymore. It moved.” 

“Chains?” Hyunjin asked. 

But before you could answer, all seven of you were plunged into darkness. Immediately it was followed by the sound of the tap turning on in the kitchen. Several curses broke out amongst the men in the room and there was the sound of panicked shuffling.

“He’s really trying to prove a point, isn’t he?” Jeongin sighed. 

You hummed in agreement. 

The water came to a stop and then the lights turned back on after another moment of silence. Hyunjin and Changbin were now both standing up, terrified looks on their faces. 

“Why do you look so scared?” Jeongin asked, amusement clear as day in his voice. “It’s just Minho-hyung.” 

“How does that not freak you out?” Hyunjin asked. 

“Because it’s Hyung. Why would I be afraid of him?” 

Your eyes focused on Minho, who was gazing softly at Jeongin— a completely new look for the normally agitated spirit. You couldn’t help but smile at that.

You really are a tsundere, you teased. 

Minho shot you a look but there was no strength in it. “Shut up,” he grumbled. 

You giggled and finally took a bite of your brownie. 

Holy shit this is amazing!

“Felix-sunbae,” you said. “Please open up a bakery.” 

Felix looked over at you, still frazzled from what all just happened and nodded slowly. You giggled to yourself again. 

I think he’s still in shock. 

“I think they’re all in shock,” Minho said. “Changbin looks like he shit himself. He’s always been a scaredy cat. Chan is weirdly calm though. He’s usually even worse.” 

Nah. He’s scared shitless. I can feel it.

Minho let out a loud laugh before quickly collecting himself. “That’s great actually,” he said biting back another laugh. “He deserves it.” 

Damn. You that angry at them?

“Yes,” Minho said, his voice firmer now. “They just abandoned each other. They abandoned Jeongin. I’m fucking livid to be honest. If I could, I would punch every one of them. Okay… maybe not Yongbok but still.” 

Yeah, no. Let’s not do that.

“You think I could? I was able to pull your hair. Maybe I have enough energy to punch one or two of them.” 

You sighed, shaking your head at him. Maybe? But I’d rather not find out.

“You’re no fun, Y/N-ah,” Minho said with a teasing smirk. 

“Okay,” Chan said, breaking the silence that had fell amongst the others. “I think that’s enough proof as it is.” He blew out a breath. “Why don’t we officially start this meeting then, yeah?” 

Everyone chimed in with agreements. Hyunjin and Changbin both took their seats. Felix quickly finished handing out the tea and brownies before taking his.

“Two weeks,” Jeongin started but shook his head. “No three weeks ago now," he corrected himself, "I started experiencing weird things in my apartment. The lights and water would turn off and on. My keyboard even turned on once. Small things like a keychain would go missing and then I find them in places I know I didn’t have them. And the pacing. I heard it almost every night.” 

“But how did you know it was Hyung?” Seungmin asked. 

“Beomgyu suggested it. The keychain that went missing? It was the one Hyung got my from Kyoto.”

“The fox?” Felix asked. 

Jeongin nodded. “I found it in the old hoodie of his that I have,” he said. “Then there was one day where I heard humming in my kitchen. It sounded just like him. So when I told my friends that, Beomgyu was also the one that suggested me asking ‘Eris’ for help.” 

“At first I didn’t know Jeongin was associated with any of you,” you said. “Especially Minho or Jisung. So it was an insane coincidence that I happened to see Minho the same day he texted me.” 

“Jeongin mentioned you saw him,” Chan said. 

“It was only for a minute. But when I recognized him, I was really thrown off guard. I had been able to sense him or Jisung at all the previous year.” 

Jeongin twisted towards you, surprised. “What?” he asked. “What do you mean?” 

“I wasn’t in Korea when they went missing,” you said. “I got back a few days after the last search party. So, I went camping in the mountains for a week to try to find them.” 

“You tried to find them?” Hyunjin asked. 

You nodded. “Usually if I concentrate hard enough, I can pin point where people are. Dead or alive. It’s one of my abilities that goes both ways. So, I used flyers and concentrated on what they looked like. Usually I’d be able to track them? It really is hard to explain. It’s more like a feeling than anything else. I walked through every inch of those mountains but I didn’t find anything.” 

It was quiet for a few moments as everyone took in your words. 

Jeongin decided to break it. “Before I knew she was Eris she told me to try a knock method,” he said. “I asked Minho-hyung a bunch of yes or no questions. From what he told me, whatever took them? It wasn’t human. He also told me that he and Jisung-hung had made a contract with something— which Y/N had suspected when I told her about hearing chains dragging on the floor. Whatever they made a contract with wasn’t human either. And that Jisung-hyung is with it.” 

“Wait,” Changbin said. “Contract? What kind of contract?” 

You and Jeongin shared looks. 

“They’re in spiritual debt,” you said. “I haven’t told Jeongin this yet because it just happened the other day but Jisung came to me. He and Jisung made a contract with three things. Well, two things and one living person. They made a contract to be resurrected.” 

“And we were fucked over,” Minho grumbled from across the room. 

You shot him a sympathetic look. 

“Resurrected,” Jeongin repeated, voice barely above a whisper. 

“Is that even possible?” Felix asked.

“No,” you said. “But it’s one of the oldest tricks in the book. A demon or other entity swears it can help resurrect a spirit but in the end they get fooled a usually end up selling their soul instead.” 

“So they sold their souls?” Chan asked. 

“From what Jisung said, it was only supposed to be a quarter. Apparently this contract including some type of trial. First they were supposed to escape from Purgatory. And then they sold a quarter of their souls. But they were lied to. Instead half of their souls got taken.” 

“We didn’t realize it at first,” Minho said. “We signed the contract and it seemed to be okay. But then we had to escape Azrael. That didn’t go so well and we were sent to hell. It took us almost four months to escape. And when we got back, another quarter of our souls were taken.”

“Minho said that they hadn’t realized it at first,” you said. “That the contract seemed to be fine. But when they had to escape Azrael, they failed. They were sent to hell and when they escaped almost four months later, another quarter of their souls were taken.” 

“They had to escape the angel of death?” Felix asked. “And hell?” 

You nodded. 

“How?” the blonde rasped. “How is that even possible?” 

“It was mainly Jisung,” Minho said. “He made a map. It took us probably over a fifty or more tries to get out. But he was able to map everything out.” 

“Jisung was able to map everything out after over fifty tries,” you said. 

Makes a lot of sense. He must of carefully mapped out each level like I did. 

Minho stared at you, shock written across his face. “What?” He asked. 

Shit. He heard me again. 

You just shook your head. Nothing. What happened after that?

Minho squinted at you— obviously suspicious— but continued. “When we escaped we were chased down by hellhounds. Jisung sacrificed himself for me. I was stuck on that mountain while he was sent back to hell.” 

“After they escaped,” you said, “they were chased by hellhounds. Jisung sacrificed himself for Minho and was sent back to hell. Minho was stuck on the mountain.” 

“Stuck on the mountain?” Seungmin asked. 

“Jisung mentioned a binding spell.” You paused, listening carefully as Minho explained. “The living person they made a contract with used a spell to bind those them to the mountain,” you continued when he finished, “so they couldn’t wander anywhere else. But when Jisung manage to escape hell, the hellhounds, and Azrael all for a second time he was also able to break the binding spell that held them there. But when they left they were only able to enter Jeongin’s apartment for awhile.” 

“Why isn’t Jisung here?” Changbin asked. 

“When we managed to escape,” Minho said, “They came looking for us. We were worried they would go after Jeongin. They have this weird… infatuation with him. They talk about him all the time. Jisung went back to them three weeks ago. He stays there to try to deter them off from finding us. They’re afraid Azrael will come for them so, they don’t leave the mountain often and have a bunch of wards to keep him and the hellhounds away.” 

Your eyes widened and you slowly explained to the other six what Minho said. 

“Why me?” Jeongin asked. 

“We don’t know,” Minho said. “Jisung has been trying to find that out.” 

“Jisung’s trying to find out,” you said. And they have wards to keep angels away? Hellhounds sure. But, angels?

Minho shrugged. “I don’t know how they do it,” he said. “One of them is… different. Like completely different. It doesn’t feel dark like the other thing. But it doesn’t feel good either. It’s the one that set up the wards."

Could that be the elemental? Would they be able to ward off angels of all things? 

“So the two of you were in my apartment before three weeks ago?” Jeongin asked, facing directly where Minho was. 

He really can tell where he is.

“He said they were just staying there at first,” you said after Minho finished speaking. “It wasn’t until Jisung went back to the mountain that Minho started to present himself. He was trying to figure out a way to get your attention so you could help them.” 

“Didn’t you have a premonition about Jisung?” Felix asked. “Jeongin mentioned it but he didn’t say what it was about.”

“He’s going back to hell again,” you said grimly.

Minho stood up straight now. “What?” he asked.

“He was being chased down by hellhounds,” you said. “He was close to purgatory and he was trying to make it. But…”

“He doesn’t,” Hyunjin uttered.

You nodded. “I’m not sure when he’s being sent back. I just spoke to him two days ago so he might have not gone back yet.”

“He popped in yesterday,” Minho said. “While Jeongin was in class.”

“And Minho saw him yesterday.”

“Do you think we can help them before he gets sent back?” Jeongin asked. “I know you said it’s dangerous to break a spiritual debt but we have to try right?”

“It is,” you said. “Especially since we ha—“ You shook your head and corrected yourself. “Since I have no idea what I’ll be dealing with.”

“You?” Chan asked. “We won’t let you deal with it by yourself, you know?” 

“For the most part I will be,” you said, voice firm. “Again it's dangerous. Extremely dangerous. It’ll be safer if I go about this mostly myself. Honestly, I mainly just need you all as a connection.” 

“A connection?” Seungmin asked. 

“You were the last people with them before they went missing. Plus, from what it seems you were also the people closest to them. If people with strong connections are present, I might be able to actually not just break the contact but also help them move on.”

“How do you know how to do that?” Seungmin asked.

You took a sip of your tea. “I was practically bred to do it,” you said, a bitterly sarcastic edge to your voice.

“Bred?” Changbin asked.

“My family was very selective with partners for each heir. My mother was married off to a medium in hopes that their child would be one too. It worked to say the least.”

It worked a little too well.

“Jimin said you’re from a family of Shamans,” Jeongin said softly.

More like a cult.

“I am,” you said, “But a lot of my family are also full on mediums or empaths as well.” You let out a soft sigh. “Most of my childhood was spent in training. Cleansing. Banishing. Complete exorcisms. You name it, I could probably do it. So, though it is dangerous, I am confident I can help those two in some way. But, first we need to find their bodies.” Your eyes connected with Minho’s. “Do you know where they are?” 

“A cave,” Minho said. He seemed almost pained saying it. “A cave in the mountains. I… I don’t know which one though.” 

“A cave,” you repeated.

“Does he know which one?” Chan asked. 

“There’s dozens of caves on that mountain,” Changbin said.

“There’s a whole network of them,” Seungmin said.

“He said he doesn’t remember,” you said. “That’s not surprising though. It happens a lot with spirits. They don’t remember certain things about their life or about their death. And a lot of the time, the longer they’re earth bound the more they forget.” 

The guys all shared grim looks. 

“What about the one that’s alive?” Hyunjin asked. “The one they made a contract with?” 

“He lives at the shrine,” Minho said. “He’s not a monk but the caregiver.”

“The shrine,” you said. “He’s the caregiver of the shrine.” 

“That motherfucker?!” Changbin suddenly exclaimed, standing up. 

You tilted you head at him. “What?” 

“He was an asshole,” Felix grumbled. “He barely let us search anywhere on the property.” 

“The cops found him suspicious,” Chan said. “They got a search warrant and they said they turned the shrine pretty much upside down. They didn’t find anything though.” 

“Well,” you said, “I know the first place we’re going.”

Bring the thunder down

Well time to give my thoughts on the latest episode.

POSITIVES:

-Seeing callbacks to previous episodes in season 1 was pretty nice

-Holy shit Verosika development? HELL YA!!!! I'm just going to say it; Verosika is the best part of the episode hands down. I like that we get to see a real side of her beyond just being a one-dimensional bitch, her being friendly towards Stolas due to seeing him, and how SHE felt when she was hurt by Blitz.

And she deeply empathizes with people who were also hurt by Blitz and holds this party so people can cope with their experinces for how Blitz damaged them, a place where they can all get together. Viv developing a female character...? That's insane! Verosika feels like an actual person in this episode, not just a one-dimensional bitch.

-We don't get a rushed resolution to Blitz's feud with Verosika like we did for his feud with Fizz, which I am very happy for. I liked how they handled the reletionship between the two here,

-The development for Blitz here is genuienly great...? Like, the episode does a good job of showing him finally realizing how his actions have hurt others, and shows him trying to play victim here in the final scene of the episode before accepting that HE IS THE PROBLEM. And it's now the begining of him finally deciding to grow and become a better person, which is probably going to be a major arc in both season 2 and the rest of the series.

-The characterization here for Blitz is also great. Again it shows him playing the victim here because he's too much of an asshole to accept how he might have hurt others, until he realizes how his actions actually affect those he hurt. He feels genuine remorse now for his actions after the song that Stolas' sings on the stage.

-SPEAKING OF THAT SONG NUMBER; I have some issues with it when it comes to Blitz victim blaming but for the most part it's not bad. The visualls during it look quite nice and the singing is really good. This also serves as a good moment for Blitz as a character; as he sees that actually did, genuinely, have real feelings for him, and it helps Blitz realize all the mistakes he's made throughout his life and how his actions have genuinely hurt others.

-The episode, generally, does a good job of showing how Blitz's actions have hurt others.

-The finale scene in the episode is fantastic. Like I said we get some great development for Verosika and some insight on how she felt when Blitz ran off, characterization for Blitz and growth with him finally realizing his mistakes and the begining of him growing as a person. The voice acting from the two especially sells the emotions in it.

This episode has a suprising amount of good stuff in it when it comes to Blitz and Verosika...unfortunetly there are still some issues.

NEGATIVES:

-Unsuprisingly the Stolas stuff here is awful. The episode constantly frames him as another one of Blitz's victims who was hurt by him which just shows more Stolas victimization. Whopee. The begining scene is especially awful when it comes to this. The thing that really gets me is the line "since when have I ever looked down upoun you", like, dude, YOU CONSTANTLY BELITTLE HIM THROUGHOUT THE FIRST SEASON. OF COURSE HE'S GOING TO THINK YOU LOOK DOWN UPOUN HIM.

And then he says that Blitz is like Striker which is fucking stupid.

(though tbf Blitz is deffiently an ass in this scene so I can get Stolas' perspective to a slight extent, but some of the framming here and dialogue is still questionable)

-Speaking of that begining scene, its...eh. It has the issues with Stolas victimization as I already talked about here but then there's the fact that they used Blitz not telling Stoals about Striker as a way to create cheap drama. YAY! Also this...never gets resolved in the episode btw.

-The stage scene where Stolas sings his "motherfucker" song is good enough in terms of development for Blitz but since Blitz isn't in the wrong here for not believing Stolas loves him it still come across as another instance of Blitzo victim blaming to a slight extent. I already expressed my opinions multiple times about why Blitz is not in the wrong for not thinking that Stolas has real love for him so I'm not gonna repeat myself here, but I'm really sick of the Stolas victimization in this season and I just wish the show would stop pretending that Stolas is the victim here.

-The conversation the two have after the song isn't an awful scene but still shows Stolas victimization. Again, more Stolas victimization and a lot of the dialogue from Stolas here really seems to point to this. Like the scene has Blitz apologize to Stolas and act like the latter deserves better than the former because the former was soooo mean to him UwU, and it just. Ugh. And then the episode has Stolas whine about how he just wants someone to care about him and I'm just like. Viv. You aren't going to make me sympathize with this stupid fucking owl. You just can't.

-The episodes seems to be implying that Blitz has feelings for Stolas...? Huh???? Since when??? And also why does Blitz even have feelings for Stolas to begin with? Like everytime Stolas and Blitz interact Blitz always shows physical discomfort around Stolas, why tf is he suddenely interested in him NOW???

-How exactly was Verosika able to know of Stolas' reletionship with Blitz?

-Blitz decides to go into the party WITHOUT A DISGUISE. Like he takes one eventually but why didn't you bring one to begin with...?

-Is there no one guarding the entrance to this party? Because Blitz should have not able to get in here.

-Blitz comeing in without a disguise doesn't bring any attention for some reason???

This episode was...actually kind of good. Like, I'd say this is probably the best episode of season 2 so far. It mainly suffers from more Stolas victimization and some very weird plot holes and the out of nowhere development of Blitz getting feelings for Stolas but there is genuinely fantastic stuff in here that's good enough to make the episode at least a 7.5/10, hell maybe even an 8. I could forgive a small amount of plot holes if there's enough great stuff in the story and in this episode there is.

So ya, I actually kind of enjoyed this one.

thoughts while watching episode 2! ☆

summary: necessary amount of love for jinx, unnecessary amount of child hate lmao

oh my baby girl i love u it's ok don't be sad please

jinx focused episode let's gooo

me: omg was that a flash of powder?!

*rewinds*

me: ...who the fuck is that.

me: oh no. oh no. this kid is important enough to make it to the intro, jinx is going to take care of this child isn't she. that sure is... a choice

oh no the kid is here

ugh for me personally the only thing worse they could have done is make her pregnant or have a baby. i hate storylines like this im so sorry. it's different when the parent-child relationship is like the main focus or the premise of the show/movie (the mandalorian, the last of us, the walking dead game, silco taking care of powder who's the main character), but when a random ass child shows up years late to the party and needs someone to take care of them and the child character has no previous connection to the audience... i really dislike that in stories im so sorry. leave jinx alone

also, in what world is jinx ready to be a mother figure to anyone lmao she's very much stuck in a child-like state herself half the time. this is not what she needs, we both deserve better

i like the child's design though

honestly, i hope arcane makes me take all that i just said back, but we'll see

jinx i love you

her voice is so good, the voice acting is sooo good oh my god

does she kinda have a different vibe or is it just me?

honestly thought she would be doing a lot worse than she is. good for her!

don't get me wrong, i get that from the orphan's point of view jinx just saved her life and she's clearly super strong, what else is she supposed to do than follow

what i'm saying is that i personally do not want jinx to take care of a child right now. i want this to be about the sisters. the fact that i don't like this is on me, the writers can obviously do whatever they want with their story buuut.....

sevika<3

can't wait for her and jinx to team up

wait does sevika even know that jinx was the one who killed silco?

i don't know what's going on with viktor and whatever he's saying here is not helping

did she though?

everything viktor does now is so slow. the way he speaks, the way he moves...

im not a jayvik girlie but i imagine that those who are felt rly sad after this scene

ekko my boy! the biker mouse from mars can speak?

my brother: he really does look like one

i literally facepalmed and my brother groaned

ekko please ditch this creature you're better on your own

shut up. you're not cute, you're not funny.

i should probably clarify that heimer is my least favourite character in the show, i kinda have no patience for anything he does 😂

i literally said DO IT JAYCE out loud

this made me laugh

same, ekko, same.

can we talk about the way he's holding the cup lol

it's also kinda funny and kinda sad at the same time that this is probably his first time tasting tea

SHUT UUUUPPPP

i screamed

vi? nooo, what the hell 😫 i thought it was the bad guys after her but no it's VI? don't hurt jinx like this, don't hurt me like this

the animation is making me feel like i'm the one who can't breathe damn

hasn't my girl been through enough?? stooooppp

this looked really cool though

there's no way those were the only two times he saw her cry

also, she's insane, blinking and getting even closer. i am obsessed with her

YESSSHHHH

after getting her ass kicked by vi and jinx repeatedly in season 1, i have a feeling this is a battle she's finally going to win 😆

the whole-body movement she did here, so cute, i love her so much 😭

GET JINXED OMG!!!!!!!! 💙💙💙💙💙

holy shit you can always trust arcane with fight scenes

my brother: no one does fight scenes better than arcane.

me: i know right?! that was so good! best scene in season 2 so far!

brother: yep.

oh wow ok. girl, 1st of all, ew. 2nd of all, that thing was like 80% machine what was there left for you to eat? 3rd of all... this begs the question, what do these people eat, exactly? do they draw the line at cannibalism but everyone else is fair game? huh.

i doubt the people in piltover eat like this

no, let's not do that<3

what is he, jesus? this is a bit too much.

[casually-slips-into-coma]

small detail of different memories: in louis’ version he apologizes to armand and armand says “meaningless word” and then moves on to talk about the slanted floor. in daniel’s version he remembers the dead guy and the same scene plays out except armand explains he killed the neighbor in between “meaningless word” and how the floor is slanted

vibrating eyes

LOVING how this episode is shot. all the different angles and the camerawork and the fucking MUSIC

canon that louis fucks guys and then kills them fic writers get to it

“128 boys hes brought here—“ “he said it was 5🥺”

daniel basically saying look man ill suck ur dick if u let me go

and then armand making him kneel

armand so unnerving <3

i know its kinda dumb to point out but i love small details of vamp power. specifically how armand picked up that table like it weighed nothing and when he picked up louis

love the idea of louis being like ok just put your feet in the rocks itll help

sopping wet cat armand!!!

but also he really let louis suffer for days instead of just giving him blood to ease the pain😬

lestats voice caught me off guard genuinely

interesting that armand knows where lestat is. i wonder how the show is gonna go about it. is he in the ground??

armand saying exactly what louis told daniel word for word
