Stars Forever
Pairing: Robert Capa x Reader
Word Count: 4.2k
Summary: The night before launch, the crew of the Icarus II stay in a nearby hotel. The sleeping arrangements are less than ideal for you and the ship's cranky physicist.
Warnings: Smut, extremely trope-heavy and contrived shenanigans, kinda enemies-to-lovers, teasing, mentions of birth control (IUDs)
A/N: The title of this fic was inspired by Starless Heaven by Guster. That song has nothing to do with the fic, but it's really pretty so I wanted to share it lol. For the purposes of the "plot" here, reader is taking Trey's place on the ship (sorry Trey). Only one bed is my favorite trope and I just want to write it for every character ever <3
***Please read the warnings before continuing. Minors DNI***
Capa was a few paces ahead of you, walking with his hands stuffed in his pockets. The soft yellow lights of the hotel corridor surrounded you on all sides as you glanced at the room numbers.
âQuit following me,â Capa barked, throwing a quick glance over his shoulder.
You rolled your eyes, once he had turned back around and couldn't see you. This was so typical.Â
âI'm not following you. I'm looking for my room.â
You checked another room number. That wasn't it. Capa continued down the hallway, not pausing as he spoke over his shoulder again.
âAren't you with Cassie or Corazon? Go bother one of them,â he spat.
âFirst of all, I'm not bothering anyone. And second of all, no. Cassie and Cora are together. I'm rooming with someone else.â
At least, you assumed you were. All you had was your assigned room number. With eight crew members and apparently very heavily limited space in the hotel you were staying at for the night, you had been informed that everyone would need to double up. You, Cassie, and Cora had quickly compared room numbers to determine that you were the odd one out, but you had no idea who your own roommate would be. Obviously one of the guys, which was bound to be at least a little awkward.Â
But, you would be fine. This was only going to be for one night. Tomorrow, the lot of you would be driven to mission control and then launched into space, bound for the Icarus II module currently hovering in the moonâs orbit, and then for the center of the solar system. This hotel was simply the closest accommodation for tonight, even if it was slightly too cramped for all eight of you.
âWell, quit walking so close to me at least.â
Capaâs voice brought you back to reality, and you realized that you had been zoning out and not looking at the last several room numbers. You checked the next one. Still not yours.
You slowed down, but only a little bit, putting some distance between you and Capa. You had no particular desire to be close to him. Though you certainly didn't hate him as much as he seemed to hate you.Â
His dislike was obvious, but it confused you. You hadn't done anything that should have prompted him to feel so negatively toward you, as far as you were aware. But from the moment you and Capa had met at your first briefing, six months ago, you could tell he was incredibly tense whenever you were in the room.
Finally, your eyes landed on the room number assigned to you. You stopped in your tracks, then looked up, confused. Capa was standing in front of the same room.
âWhy don't you get lost?â he asked, still testy.
âThis is my room,â you said, motioning to the door.
Capaâs eyes darted to the room number and then back to you. His brows creased as he scowled openly.
âNo. There's no way,â he said. âThis is my room.â
âWell, it's my room, too,â you insisted.
You felt your cheeks heat up. Usually, Capaâs opinion of you didn't bother you much. He was just a coworker. Both of you had proven that you could put personal feelings aside for the sake of the mission, and whatever he thought about you in his free time didn't much matter. But now, faced with the challenge of sharing a hotel room, you suddenly wished that you had spent a bit more time working on your relationship.
âThis has to be some kind of mix-up. Why aren't you with one of the girls?â Capa muttered.
âMaybe because there's three girls and five guys?â you replied, sarcastically. âJeez, Capa - I thought you were good at math.â
Capa rushed to turn his face away, but you still caught a glimpse of the bright blush that rose on his cheeks. You - almost - felt bad. Usually, you tried not to antagonize him, but sometimes you couldn't help it.
âI know there's an uneven split,â he hissed, slightly wounded. âBut why would they put you with me?â
You rolled your eyes again, not caring whether he saw you. Capa always thought of himself as the main character. God forbid he be inconvenienced.
âLook, it's late, and I'd like to go to bed,â you sighed. âI'll stay on my side of the room, you stay on yours, and we won't talk to each other. Deal?â
âFine,â Capa muttered.
It was just for one night. Already feeling your temper wear thin, you slid your key card into the lock. You didn't hesitate to barge in ahead of Capa, not bothering to hold the door open behind you. He scrambled to follow, muttering something to himself.
You stopped short. Capa nearly crashed into you as you saw it first. There was only one bed.
Capa let out a deep breath of frustration. You watched from out of the corner of your eye as he swiftly turned on his heels and walked out of the room.
âNope,â he said simply, letting the door slam behind him.
As it turned out, there had been a mix-up. But unfortunately for you and Capa, it was not one that could easily be resolved. Talking to the front desk did nothing, as the clerk explained they were booked up completely.
âThere are a lot of people staying overnight so they can watch the big launch tomorrow,â she explained cheerily. âThe second Icarus ship. Very exciting stuff!â
Capa looked ready to rip her head off, but somehow restrained himself. You snickered as you followed behind him, this time purposefully trailing as Capa made his way to Captain Kanedaâs room. He was almost cute when he was angry.
Talking to Kaneda didn't get you anywhere either.
âCapa, it's late,â the captain sighed. âYou'll both just need to put up with it for one night.â
âBut we don't even have separate beds!â Capa grumbled.
âYes, well⊠if you two really dislike each other so much, that shouldn't be an issue.â
Capa opened his mouth to speak, but then the scandalous suggestion hidden in the captainâs words dawned on him, and he snapped it shut again. You were tempted to interject and say that you didn't hate Capa - his feelings were all one-sided. But then you thought better of it. You had to admit Capaâs hissy fit was amusing, but if you actually had to share a bed with him, it was better to not provoke him too much.
Capa stormed out of the captainâs room, and you followed. Back in the hallway, you ran into Mace.
âMace,â Capa called, hurrying to catch up with him. âHey, Mace - switch rooms with me.â
âWhy would I switch rooms with you?â Mace snapped.
Capa and Mace didn't get along either. At all. He must have been truly desperate to ask Mace for help.
âBecause I'm with her,â Capa replied, jabbing a finger back at you. âAnd we only have one bed.â
Mace stopped mid-stride, and turned around to look at you. He was clearly amused. Capaâs scowl deepened, and you shrugged. Mace crossed his arms as he spoke.
âNo way in hell am I sharing a bed with her, you, or Searle,â he laughed. âYou got the shit room? Tough luck, asshole.â
Mace walked away, leaving Capa to rake an exasperated hand through his hair. He turned to face you, looking you directly in the eye for the first time since you had both left your miserably shared room.
âOkay, one of us needs to take the floor,â he informed you.
You had already started to walk away, and Capa hurried to keep pace beside you.
âWell it's not gonna be me,â you said. âIf you can't grow up enough to sleep in the same bed as someone else for one night, you get to take the floor.â
Capaâs cheeks blushed pink again.
âYou actually want us to sleep together?â Capa blurted.
âUgh, don't say it like that!âÂ
You felt your own cheeks start to heat up as Capaâs blush deepened. Each of you pretended not to notice how flustered the other was getting.
You reached the door of your room and slipped the key card inside. This time, you held the door open as Capa followed after you.
âI'm just saying, why sleep on a hard floor the night before one of the biggest days of our lives?â you sighed. âWe can both be adults about this.â
Capa silently considered your words for a minute, stubbornly refusing to meet your gaze.
âWell, just think about it,â you said, reaching for your small backpack. âI'm gonna get changed.â
Capa choked, letting a small, strangled sound escape his throat as you pulled your pajamas out of the bag. When you looked up at him, his eyes had blown wide.
âYou're getting undressed?â he sputtered. âIn here?â
âIn the bathroom, Capa. Jeez!â
You stepped into the little bathroom, closing the door behind you before he had a chance to reply. Pinching the bridge of your nose, you let yourself sink back against the door. This was going to be a long night if Capa kept this up.Â
You wished he would calm down. It had been funny to watch him scramble around trying to get out of sleeping with you - or, next to you, you corrected yourself. But now, your annoyance had started to settle in again.Â
With a huff, you straightened up. It was only one night. You could handle this, and you knew Capa could too, once he had gotten over his initial shock. You set about changing into your pajamas and brushing your teeth.
When you came out, Capa seemed calmer. He was sitting slouched in the small chair next to the desk, which neither of you would have any occasion to use during such a short stay. It was only one night. The words were a mantra in your head.
âOkay,â Capa relented. âI can agree that it's important we both get a good night's rest. Especially with everything happening tomorrow.â
Privately, you thought to yourself that you were the one who needed sleep more than Capa. Your job as navigator was much more imperative than⊠whatever he would be doing. Capa was little more than a piece of glorified cargo; just coming along for the ride so that he could deploy the bomb. Which was important, of course - but he would have several months worth of time to catch up on sleep before he had to make himself useful, and-
You stopped yourself. That kind of thinking wasn't helpful. It was just nerves making you snap; you always felt tense the night before a mission. And this would be the longest one you had ever been on. Capa was probably feeling the same way, especially considering this was his first. You thought back to your first flight as a rookie, and felt yourself soften a little.
âSo we're both going to be mature about this?â you asked.
âYes,â Capa agreed, sighing as if it pained him.
âGood. Then go get ready for bed.â
You regretted the words as soon as you'd said them. They felt entirely too domestic. Too familiar. A lover telling her husband to come to bed with her.
Capa stood up, crossing paths awkwardly with you on his way to the bathroom. Once the door had shut behind him, you let out the breath you had been holding. Maybe this was going to be a long night.
While Capa got ready for bed, you crawled awkwardly under the covers. Picking a side so that neither of you would be able to argue about that, you settled in and pulled the blankets over your lap.
Capa stepped out, rustled in his bag for a minute, and then came to stand by his side of the bed.
âSo, do I justâŠâ
âHere,â you offered. âWe can put a few pillows between us.â
The hotel bed had entirely too many of them anyways. You took a couple and placed them between the spaces that you and Capa would occupy, making a little wall.
Capa climbed into bed with you, a little hesitantly. He flicked off the lamp on his bedside table, and you did the same, plunging the room into inky black.Â
In the dark, things felt suddenly more⊠intimate. Your eyes took a long minute to adjust, but when they did, you saw Capa. Still sitting propped up in bed next to you, just like you were as you stared back at him.
âThis isn't so bad, right?âÂ
Your voice was barely a whisper. Capaâs response came at a similar volume.Â
âI guess not,â he agreed.
âLet's try and get some rest.â
You sank down, snuggling into the mattress and the pillows at your side. Pressing into them almost felt like you were cuddling against Capaâs body; ironically, the makeshift barrier only made the bed feel more crowded.
âStop wiggling,â Capa complained.
You bit your tongue. You wanted to snap at him, but you reminded yourself again that you were probably just both on edge. Something in Capaâs deep voice sounded almost miserable.
âSorry,â you said instead. âJust trying to get comfortable.â
The only sound in the room was Capaâs breath. For some reason, it seemed like he was breathing a bit harder than usual.
âYou okay?â you asked.
âFine,â Capa replied, the word curt and short.
You sighed.
âCapa, why do you hate me so much?â
An uncomfortable silence hung between you. For a few seconds, you thought that he wasn't going to answer, and tried to think of how you could backpedal out of your question as you stared up at the ceiling.
âI don't hate you,â Capa said finally. âI just⊠you're distracting.â
âDistracting?â you echoed.
As far as you could remember, you had never done anything particularly distracting. At least not to any of your fellow crew members. The months you had spent together preparing for this mission were serious, and didn't leave much time for distractions of any kind.
âDon't worry about it,â Capa insisted, which only confused you more.
âWhat do you mean? Don't worry about being distracting, or don't worry about you calling me that?â
âDon't worry about any of it!â Capa groaned, suddenly exasperated.
âWhat's up with you?â
You propped yourself up on one elbow, leaning over the stack of pillows a bit to get a better look at him. Capa flinched, trying to hunch over himself. But it was too late. You had seen the obvious tent in the blankets.
âOh. My. Gosh!â you squealed. âThat's why you didn't want to sleep with me. You don't hate me at all. You like me.â
âShut up!â Capa snapped, still trying to cover himself with his hands.
You smiled. This was too good. All those months you'd spent wondering what his deal was, and now it was so obvious. Capa had a crush on you. And a pretty big one, by the looks of it.
âIt's nothing to be ashamed of, Capa,â you laughed. âYou can admit that you like me.â
âI don't,â Capa insisted.
âI have a hard time believing that,â you murmured, eyes trailing down to his crotch.
âLook, don't tell anyone,â Capa begged.
âWhy would I tell anyone?âÂ
You peeled the blankets back, taking the wall of pillows with them. Capa, in his shock, watched as the sheets fell away but did nothing to try and stop you. His hands were still clamped down over his erection, and you lifted them up to guide the blanket away.
âIf I told someone,â you continued, âthen I'd have to tell them about thisâŠâ
You leaned down, capturing his lips in a kiss. You felt Capa tense beneath you, sitting up slightly before he melted back into the pillows. You followed him, moving to straddle his waist and put your hands on his shoulders, holding him there.
âW-what are you doing?â Capa stammered.
Youâd pulled back to look at him, and even in the darkness you could tell just how wide his eyes had blown.
âI dunno - what do you want me to do?â you teased.
Your fingers trailed up and down his chest, his breath hitching once as you reached the base of his neck.
âWell, you could get off of me, for starters,â he answered, voice wavering.
His deep voice, usually so smooth and clear, had taken on a desperate, slightly strained quality. You moved your fingertips over the hem of his shirt collar, teasing just beneath the fabric.
âCome on, Capa. Be honest,â you prodded. âWhat do you really want?â
âFuck,â Capa whined.
âFuck? We can fuck,â you agreed, voice lowering.
âTh-thatâs not what I meant and you know it - Shit!â
Capa interrupted himself as you slid lower, centering your hips over his clothed erection. You rubbed against him, and he clenched his jaw, throwing his head back into the pillows.
âFuck! How come you like me all of a sudden?â Capa hissed, slightly out of breath.
âWho said I ever didnât like you?â you questioned, sliding your hands under his shirt.
Capaâs back arched against the mattress as your hands moved over his bare chest. You swore you heard him let out a little moan.
âYouâre just doing this to torture me,â he accused.
âAnd what if I am?â You leaned in to whisper against his ear. âIt seems like you kinda like it.â
Your gentle touches turned harsh; raking your nails down Capaâs chest. As he moaned again, you leaned in to capture it with a kiss. His lips slotted into yours, and Capa bit down, desperate. You hummed with your lower lip trapped between his teeth, still dragging your hips against him. Capa mumbled something, and you pulled away to hear him.
âHm?â
âPlease donât make me come in my pants,â he groaned.
You lifted off of him a little, putting a stop to the friction between you. Capa groaned again, this time at the loss.
âOh, okay,â you said mischievously. âLet's take you out of them, then.â
You moved to take off his shorts, pushing them down just enough to free his leaking cock. Capa had a pretty one, you had to admit. Even in the dark, you could see how it shined with small, milky beads of his arousal. As it sprang out from the confines of his boxers, Capa whined desperately.
âThis too,â you said, tugging at the hem of his shirt.
Capa sat up to tear himself out of his t-shirt, and then started to pull off yours. Once you were both out of your shirts, your lips crashed together again, and Capaâs arms wrapped around your waist, pressing into your back to pull you closer.
âHang on,â you breathed, pulling away to wrestle yourself out of your own shorts.
Tossing them to the side, you went back to straddling Capa, and pushed him back down to lie flat on the mattress. Your bodies were tantalizingly close together, hovering just on the edge of you sinking down onto his cock. Capaâs hands came up to rest on your sides - clearly wanting to touch your breasts but not daring to. You guided his left hand to cup one.
âFuck,â Capa sighed again, digging his fingers into you.
âBe patient,â you scolded, giggling a little at the way Capaâs brow creased.
âHavenât you played with me enough?â he moaned.
âI donât think so, actually.â
You lowered yourself down just a bit, enough to let his tip brush through your folds. You were pretty wet already, but not quite enough to take him in yet. Pressing down more, you trapped his cock between yourself and his stomach, sliding up and down the underside of his length.
âAh!â Capa gasped.
His fingers tightened on your breast, and you basked in the feel of his hands on you. The way your clit was rubbing against him with every stroke of your hips wasnât so bad either, and you thought fleetingly that you might actually be able to get both of you off just like this. You considered it, but where was the fun in that?
You sat up, reaching down to position him so that it would only take one more stroke to enter you. You felt how wet you had gotten his shaft, just by rubbing against it, and laughed softly to yourself. Maybe you did like Capa a little more than youâd thought. As you swirled your hips, getting the head of his cock wet enough to slide into you, Capa lost what little remaining resolve he had.
âFuck - please,â Capa whined.
âPlease what?â
âYou know what youâre doing, you jerk.â
âAnd?â
Capa bucked his hips beneath you, but you inched up and away from him, keeping his prize just out of reach.
âTell me what you want,â you taunted. âYou can use your words, right? Or am I âdistractingâ you again?â
âYes - itâs very fucking distracting to feel you dripping down my cock,â Capa moaned.
If he was trying to get to you, he would have to do better than that.
âCome on, just tell me. What do you want?â
âYou! Fuck,â Capa grunted. âGod, I want to be inside you.â
âThere, was that so hard?â you laughed.
âFuck you, youâre driving me crazy.â
He was speaking through clenched teeth, jaw straining once again as his eyes squeezed shut. The sight was enough to make you pulse, clenching around nothing. You had held back for long enough, you decided.
In one swift motion, you sank down onto his cock. The stretch was enough to make you hum, pleasure filling your chest as your walls wrapped around him. Capa was slightly less subtle, moaning loudly at the feel of you.
His desperate, needy sounds were like music to your ears. Slowly, you rocked your hips back and forth, keeping yourself pressed flush against him. Capa let out a breath.
âDonât stop,â he begged you.
You didnât plan on it. You kept your pace steady, stopping the rhythm every once in a while to swirl your hips.
As much as you were enjoying the sight of Capa falling apart beneath you, you needed more to help yourself over the edge. You brought your fingers down to your clit, letting the motion of your hips guide the pressure.
âOh, Iâm close,â you sighed.
Your eyes fluttered shut, and you tossed your head back. Capaâs hands were planted on your hips now, greedily pulling you down as far onto his cock as you would go. His voice was a mess as he answered.
âMe too - fuck - you're gonna need to get off of me.â
âNot yet,â you moaned, grinding your hips down again.
âWhat do you mean ânot yet?ââ Capa grunted, sounding miserable.
âSo close,â you replied, your own voice getting shaky.
And then, you felt the coil in your stomach snap. You cried out, pressing down onto him harder than ever as your nails raked down his chest. While you rode out your high, Capa scrambled to grab at your hips and lift you all the way off of him.
âFuck, fuck, fuck, fuck - get off!â he gasped.
As your orgasm faded, you looked down to see Capa, desperate and flushed-red cock in his hand, spurting ropes of cum onto his own stomach. Heâd managed to pull you off just in time, but barely. A smirk crossed your lips as you watched him.
You werenât sure what he was so worried about. As precaution, all female members of the Icarus crew had been required to have IUDs placed months ago. They would last the duration of the journey, and ensure that no mishaps occurred. Although, now you considered that maybe Capa and the other men hadnât been told about that, to prevent⊠well, to prevent them from getting any ideas about doing what Capa and you had just done.
You crawled off of him, grabbing a box of tissues from one of the nightstands.
âHere - clean yourself off,â you told him. âI like to cuddle after.â
Capa took the tissues and wiped up his cum, tossing everything into the trashcan next to the bed. You flopped down on top of him, forcing his arms to wrap around you in surprise before they settled into the curves of your body.
Bringing his lips into a slow kiss, you felt the hum of Capaâs moan against you.
âYouâre gonna kill me if this is what the next three years together are going to be like,â Capa complained.
âThatâs a funny way of saying âthank you,ââ you teased, resting your head against his chest. âAnd besides,â you continued, poking him in the ribs, âwhat makes you think that this is what the next three years are gonna be like?â
You could practically feel Capa blush, his arms tightening and the skin on his chest getting just a bit hotter.
âI meanâŠâ
âIâm just kidding,â you laughed. âOf course Iâm gonna keep torturing you like this. Since you like it so much,â you added.
âYeah, well⊠maybe Iâll torture you instead next time,â Capa threatened, tugging you harder against him.
âYou can tryâŠâ Bringing your lips back up to his face, you pressed a kiss to his cheek. âItâs kinda cute that you have the confidence.â
You giggled as Capa held the sides of your face, stopping you from pulling away as he kissed your lips. Both of you sank down, Capa turning to hover over you this time as he kissed you again.Â
You smiled against his lips. You could certainly think of worse ways to spend the next few years.

ZwillingstĂŒrme im Herbst Thoughts
ZT to me, is a story of endings. Not just the factual endings of eras, Arts, and songs. But also the great question of "What happens after the end?"
Each major character faces an ending in this story. Leithanien faces the end of both the Kaiserinnen and the truest finale of the Witch King. The Liches end their stay in the country. Viviana comes to terms with her Leithanien heritage, Ebenholz frees himself from all of his demons, and Arturia, well, we'll get to Arturia.
One of the most notable things is how this story treats hope and the indomitable human spirit. Unlike other stories, it does not praise humanity and treat them as some unstoppable limitless force by virtue of their emotions. Instead, it takes a very nuanced approach that's informed by how powerless these characters can actually get. Sure they can charge forward towards their goals but they'll still die and they'll still be faced with darkness and regrets. Even still, we should embrace our emotions and the turmoil they bring.
The Genesis Horn and Kagenreich are such interesting ideas but it can feel weird that much of the climax is emotional conflicts made manifest. Viviana's is the most obvious. The constant doors to possible new lives culminating in her real one. She comes to let go of the past and stand for herself which is nice. It's also nice that it was Margaret's light that helped her fight back the darkness. An exquisite call-back to the Radiant Knight.
Ebenholz helped to paint a very unique lesson in my opinion. That suffering doesn't NEED meaning. Even after promising Kreide that he'd live and fight fate, he's still plagued by headaches and Witch King Remnants. The revelation that whatever was in his head, the Voice of Mundane, was just a mundane voice upends many of the things we've (us and Ebenholz) assumed about his life. That his suffering was tied to the Witch King and that his conflict would culminate in a big fight against the man whose shadow terrorized him. Instead they have a heart to heart and the Witch King challenges him to look back on his life and realize that "the night itself is meaningless." It is totally fine to have a terrible thing just be a terrible thing and moving on doesn't have to involve a great trials to overcome, sometimes your enemies kill themselves and you just walk away.
Arturia is the most interesting but I'm afraid I can't do her full arc justice. In contrast to his accommodating spin with Ebenholz, the Witch King challenges Arturia at every turn, questioning her motive and why she wants what she does. It comes to a head when he forcefully dives into her and sees that there is only one thing that stirred her own emotions. Everything else is a mirror of someone else. He ultimately gives her the answer she's looking for and the natural doubt that comes when the answer she found didn't meet her expectations. But her bouncing back as chaos descended was beautiful and I might reread this and Hortus just to really grasp her character.
Cora and Brandt, Hildegard and Lisellote (no idea how to, spell the Kaserinnen's surnames), Michel, Lessing, and the Liches. All sorts of stories come to a close as new beginnings emerge. And the most troublesome of them is definitely the makings of the newest source of conflict: the Disaster, the encroaching of chaos upon reality and the return of the supposed Creator.
It's quite likely that that may be the angle of the next major story arc, especially with the role Nearl's light played and the fact that Laterano is trying so hard to unite the nations.
This event was great and I recommend it. Not sure if I have any major notes or ideas to share but I really liked it.
One last thing: seems people are kinda wary of Lisellote, the Eternal Grace. I love it when the supposedly fluffier one has the greater potential of evil

Ships with Stiles that I enjoy | RANKED
1 : Stisaac
Stiles/Isaac
My favorite. 10/10. The DRAMA, but also the shared trauma, they're perfect. Sure it's a BIT toxic but it's a guilty pleasure, what can I say.
2 : Stalia
Stiles/Malia
Only lower on the list BECAUSE Malia should've had SO much more mental development before going into a relationship. But they were cute, 10/10
3 : Stydia
Stiles/Lydia
Only third because of how FUCKING LONG IT TOOK. AND HOW LITTLE WE ENDED UP GETTING. Jeff Davis can go suck a wrinkly dry hairy testicle. Still 10/10
4 : Stira
Stiles/Kira
HEAR ME OUT. They would geek out so much together its NOT even fucking funny. They're both socially awkward nerds that ramble and I live for it. 10 out of fucking 10. Prefer Malira tho...
5 : Sterica
Stiles/Erica
Low-key wanted this to happen for a bit. Maybe not permanently because I always saw the both of them to be more bisexual types but they would've been cute. Also I can't remember where the whole "Batman" "Catwoman" nicknames came from but it is my only life support rn. 9.5/10
6 : Sterek
Stiles/Derek
My favorite blorbo Derek Hale. I didn't get the hype with this ship when I first started watching, but then I kept seeing things in this show that made me wonder, "Jeff, was this intentional?" Bc they're so very gay with each other. Alas, age gaps are an iffy thing for me personally due to my own personal traumas, but I still love them. 9.5/10
7 : Stora
Stiles/Cora
Cute, could've happened, not mad that it didn't, but def a wasted opportunity on Jeff Davis' part. Solid 8/10.
8 : Stanny
Stiles/Danny
This was definitely more of a humor thing but I liked the idea of these two together from the get-go. In my opinion, there was definitely a little crush on Stiles' part and I love that. 8/10
9 : Sciles
Scott/Stiles
I changed my mind about this one because I went down a rabbit hole of Sciles and Allisciles stuff and I just. You read a fic so well written and see the most beautiful piece of art and all of a sudden you're binge reading every. Last. Fic in the tag, yk? SOLID 8/10
(Their parents are also an otp of mine. Noah and Melissa are perfect together and the best thing I've ever experienced)
Reasons
For not including other ships.
Steo : I am a Thiam shipper through and through. And Theo did things to Stiles that doesn't even make enemies to lovers valid in my opinion. IK he got a redemption arc and he was being manipulated since he was a child but STILL. I love Theo but he's not the one (for Stiles, anywayđ€).
Any ship with him and an adult ; ie, Peter, Chris, Parrish etc. : Do I even have to explain this one? I mean REALLY?
Stiam : They are like Mother and Child to me and I will take that to my GRAVE.
Stackson : Last season-T.W. Movie Jackson MAYBE but early seasons Jackson was a toxic mf who loved NOBODY but himself based on how he treated Lydia.
(Pointed out by a commenter) Stallison : I actually never knew people shipped this and didn't know it was a thing until now. After this was pointed out, I began to see the appeal and I read some Allison/Scott/Stiles fics and now I'm hooked. (Wish I knew about it beforehand tbh đ
)
Pretty sure I covered evertyhing, but if I missed someone, let me know!

Usually, I'm not one to comment or ask stuff unless it's a reply but god UTDM (and Lackadaisy) has a grip on me rn :'D
So I have two questions, and if they've been already answered feel free to ignore them!
1. It's stated somewhere in the fic that Flynn uses a cane. So does he have it simply for cosmetic reasons or does he actually need it for walking?
2. Do you think that Cora and Rocky would get along (when not taking the whole 'one does illegal stuff while the other is trying to stop illegal stuff from happening' thing into account)? I kinda thought they would because they are similar personality wise (or at least somewhat lol). Both look up to a co-worker/their boss, crave some sort of validation and are rather hyper.
Also, I just wanted to say I love this fic sm <3
This was the first time I tried out an interactive one, and I'm glad I did :] The added characters are lovely (love love the boys wanna give them a hug or smth), and this fic helped me make four characters! I'm hoping to share them along with art in the near future, but don't get your hopes up, my motivation is a creature that I cannot seem to tame lmao
Anyway, sorry if all of this is rambly, I'm not the best at wording my thoughts in a coherent way :']
Hiiii welcome to my fixation, hope it's fueling your's LOL. Pls tag me if you end up drawing them, I love seeing people's OCs that come from this! And thank you for the kind words đ„șđ
1) People think it's just cosmetic, he goes great lengths to make sure no one sees him using it as a mobility aid. I don't think anyone - sans maybe his brother, the MC a few times, and Cerberus once or twice - has seen him use his proper medical cane. His regular snake-head cane is (per @acesandocs cool ass design) is cool and impressive for showing off but doesn't help when he's hurting.
2) In spite of their similarities, Cora would be aghast at the idea of her and Rocky getting along ... He's a criminal! And drifter! And has a suspicious face!
Setting aside their actual jobs, if they were on the same "team" - They'd both be annoying each other, because Cora leans more orderly and logical, and Rocky is more sensitive and artistic. But to everyone on the outside, they both have very similar chaotic energy and thought processes haha. She also came from a much nicer upbringing and has a more rigid way of thinking, so she probably wouldn't emphatize well with Rocky's "quirks". They both share that inclination to like or dislike someone right away, and stick with that initial opinion.
#see now im imagining Dominic meeting Rocky and going with the flow bc hes just like. ah. its another Cora.#i wrote her with a lot of AuDHD traits that i have so it makes sense u thought of Rocky#i HC and write him as adhd and yet#idk why it didnt occur to me LOL#libra says#if:devil's moon

*pokes head from ground like a prairie dog*
i see you have an opla oc as well� tell me anything you wanna share abt Cora pls!!
Yessss, I do!!! My darling Cora~ Thereâs SO much I could say about her but I don't know your level of manga knowledge and I don't wanna spoil too much (please read her fic, I'm begging, it's not a long read), so... Have 10 mostly spoiler-free facts and fun facts!
1. Cora's full name is Akaito Coraline (pronounced Korahleen like in French for manga trivia reasons) and she comes from a long line of very famous tailors
2. Cora and Sanji were childhood friends and pretty much immediately become very close again when they reunite at Baratie. You really can't say who fell first and who fell harder, they are both down bad and being stupid about it. It's the same but also very different for Zoro and Cora, except they are being even more stupid about it. Like, I'm pretty sure they don't even know they're in love and it'll take years for them to act on it. And then we have Zoro and Sanji being Zoro and Sanji. Like, are you flirting or fighting? (Looking at you, plate scene...) These three, I swear...
3. Cora's main weapon is a rapier and she can use a large pair of scissors as a parrying dagger if necessary, but she prefers just not fighting at all or tricking her opponents. She's not too strong of a fighter, but I always like to say that, ignoring all personal relationships, if her and Zoro fought, the winner would probably be decided by luck within the first few seconds, simply because it's a rapier vs a katana. Either Cora stabs Zoro straight away and wins or Zoro slices Cora straight away and wins, since they both have no real way of dodging each otherâs fighting style. Similarly, she could potentially beat Luffy in one stab because of her longer range. But if she has to go longer than a minute or so against either of them, she probably loses because they end up disarming her. Speaking of losing, she loses against Sanji. That's just it. If they even fought at all, he would probably dodge the first stab and the next second he kicks her rapier out of her hand. Then she'd have to try and strangle him with his necktie but that takes time and every second counts against Sanji, so... Yeah, she loses. I'd say she's probably rank 4 among the Straw Hats fighting-wise, quickly followed by Nami and then Usopp is just, well, poor Usopp. For now...
4. She does the crew's laundry because she doesn't trust anyone else with the laundry. Like, she took one look at those guys and went "nope, youâre not touching my clothes, nuh-uh". And she was right, the others have no clue what they're doing, except maybe Nami and Sanji, but Cora has very special fabrics and opinions, so... She does the laundry, no bickering necessary
5. Very much an Acts of Service kind of person in that her first instinct when she likes someone platonically or otherwise is to go "let me make some clothes for you OwO". If she sees one loose thread on your shirt or something, or a button threatening to fall off or a small hole or tear or anything, she's right there like "Want me to fix it for you??? Please, I love you."
6. Will wear heels anywhere anytime. If she can't wear heels, she'll go for platforms. Generally, it's fashion over function with her, even though she usually finds a way to combine the two. For example, all her skirts AND dresses have pockets and she tries her very hardest to also keep that rule in her designs. If it's not 100% snug to the body, it will have pockets. Otherwise, she'll make sure you get a matching bag/purse.
7. She definitely judges people by their fashion choices. If you're a villain and you're up against her, the first thing she'll do is insult your outfit and then turn your bad fashion choices against you by using your clothes as a weapon. Anything is a bad fashion choice when up against Cora and her devil fruit.
8. Speaking of devil fruits, hers is the Chiku Chiku no Mi or Sew Sew Fruit which allows her mastery over essentially all of the steps and items in the clothesmaking process. Not too practical for full-on battle because you can't concentrate on thin thread and complicated seams while fighting, but hella versatile in everyday life AND when fucking with people (take the double entdendre or leave it, I didnât intend for it but... it's true-)
9. Traumatized as hell (I won't say from what, read the fic if you want a hint) but the Straw Hats are her emotional support idiots
10. Scared of touch but also chronically touch-starved. Once it settles into her brain that you are safe to touch and, most importantly, be touching her, she absolutely will become a cuddle bug. Remember how generally touchy the Straw Hats are with each other? She'll get there one day, give her maybe one more season or two
Aaand, to top it all off, have a bonus fun fact about her family name:
"Akaito" is derived from the Japanese "akai ito" which means "red thread" and refers to the red string of fate which binds lovers. Keep that in mind, it'll become important later in the story ;)
Thanks SO much for the ask! Feel free to hop in my ask box again anytime. I have many more things to share and I always love talking about my baby Cora

So because Teen Wolf is releasing another dumpster fire, here's me making myself a target for the entire Fandom by having probably some of the most unpopular opinions.
First off, let's talk about wasted characters.
Let's start with an obvious one:
Isaac and Kira. Can not believe these two were just brushed off.
Kira deserved to have more of her Kitsune potential. She deserved to have a journey where we see her gain powers, accomplish new possibilities and actually learn control . We deserved to see conflict, struggle in the sweet girl who had a powerful spirit.
We deserved to see Isaac heal after all the abuse he endured, we deserved to see a storyline where a victim could get help from their trauma, where a victim could find the love he deserved from a chosen family.
We deserved to see Kira and Scott learn to have a relationship through the struggle of their powers, the danger they might have possed to each other.
We deserved to see Kira be seen as her own person and not Allisons replacment.
We deserved to see Kira grow a friendship with Stiles trying to comfort him for something that clearly wasn't his fault but in a way they could both relate to as both know what it's like to have a vengeful spirit inside of them. They shared something in a way no one else did and we deserved to see them bound, talk about it.
We deserved to see Isaac find comfort in a pack that actively choose him. In an Alpha who wanted to be there for him, who wanted to have him be a part of his pack.
In a girl who lost her best friend the same day he lost his probably first love/girlfriend. We deserved to see them bound over that to make fun of Stiles, to heal each other.
We deserved to see Isaac and Malia, both in a way losing their family a long time ago and being each others healing partner on a journey neither of them can take alone.
We deserved to see Isaac and Kira both sunshines who have too much darkness for them.
We deserved to see Isaac and Liam, deserved to see Isaac help him because he knows that it's scary but he also knows how great it can be and how it can finally make you feel powerful.
We deserved to see Isaac mourn the family that he could have had but was taken from him too early.
We deserved to see Isaac and Theo because the duo they could have been.
We also deserved to have an actual good arc for Theo, to see him truly be redeemed because he wasn't evil, just desperate. We deserved to see anyone really just showing an ounce of compassion. We deserved to have a better backstory and a whole lot better than whatever mess season 5 was.
There's many other characters who should have gotten a better arc like Erica, Cora and Boyd but I think in a way the abrupte endings sadly felt real. Yes their stories were wasted but sometimes you just don't get the ending/time you thought.
We also deserved to have Allison dead because her character arc was done with that.
Let's talk storyline that should have never happened starting with the biggest one:
A panic attack kiss by a couple that had 0 chemistry.
The Ghostrider arc being around Stiles.
Kate. Just everything about her especially how her raping Derek was never addressed.
Scott and Malia
The entirety of Stydia
Malia and Parrish (without ever watching the movie)
Stiles becoming a main and therefore complelty sidelining Scott
6B
6A
Many things from season 5
But you know what should have happened?
Parrish truly having his powers explained
Parrish truly being a regular character
Lydia and Parrish further being developed until inevitably they start dating
Lydia also being allowed to date someone older but the age gape being addressed in a way that is neither patronising nor makes Parrish out to be a creep.
Malia having an actual arc other than being a Hale or a girlfriend
Scott having powers/scenes that actually proves that he is a True Alpha, something very rare.
Stiles being redeemed. He was just allowed to be shitty as a person but because he was hot it apparently didn't bother anyone.
Stiles actually fucking apologising to Lydia and realising how creepy his behaviour was to her.
Sheriff and Melissa deserved to be BFFs.
Liam being allowed to actually be a Beta and not being expected to just be the next Alpha.
Liam and Theo actually getting to develope whatever they had going on.
Theo actually being a character and not just a plot device.
Chimaera as a concept being explored.
Kitsunes actually not just being mentioned but being shown.
Now, let's move on the things that make me unpopular, starting with opinions.
1. Sterek was way creepier than Marrish ever was and Sterek should never be shipped as that was an actual fucking 15/16 year old and a fucking 28 something man.
2. Stiles really wasn't that great of a character and the only reason why he was liked was because he was attractive and had quirky one liners.
3. Stiles was only a good person with Malia, his father and mostly Scott.
4. Scott deserved to be a main but they just wrote him as boring as a pice of bread.
5. Allison was a boring character. Sorry but she only starting to be cool in season 3.
6. Lydia was somehow developed and yet not because they kept making her useless to ponder to shippers.
7. The Nogitsune was a great villain but the season 4 "villain" plotline was the most interesting.
8. I truly do not get why we needed Jackson back or why he ever was there in the first place and why people like him.
9. Danny was literally just created to appear progressive.
10. I truthfully do not remember most of Erica or Boyds character.
11. Derek was just not a good character. He had interesting storyline but how was that old man ever allowed around High Schoolers and no one said a thing? His entire premise is what makes him bad.
12. Kira was one of the best characters .
13. Malia was such an interesting character that later one just kind of was alright.
14. Isaac deserved so much better.
15. Most villains were very unremarkable.
16. Parrish was so underused
17. Also the entire Sheriff department should have been way more prominent
18. We should have gotten way more school scenes especially in season 4.
19. Banshees were explained very well yet somehow still not really?
20. The Argents should have taken on a way more villainy route which would have been much more interesting.
21. The Dread doctors would have been more interesting if they literally had any lore that I could remember.
22. The Ghost Riders where the best plot idea that feel complelty off.
Let's move on to ships I hate, the point where many of you will hate me:
1. Sterek (creepy, toxic, way too big of an age gap etc.)
2. Stydia (toxic, unrequited,pushy boy etc.)
3. Derek/Kate (rape)
4. Derek/Jennifer (no)
5. Pydia (she is literally a teenager)
6. Stiles/Peter (he is literally a teenager)
9. Anyone with Peter (most of them are literally teenagers)
10. Anyone with Derek (most of them are literally teenagers)
11. Anyone with Jackson (He is literally toxic, abusive, dismissed etc.)
Let's move on the ships I dislike:
1. Scallison (boring, flavorless)
2. Laeden (too cutsie, than boring)
3. Aiden/Lydia (just plain)
4. Stisaac (Stiles was literally a douche that dismissed his trauma)
5. Erica and Allison (nope)
6. Scalia (no build up)
Ships I tolerate/don't care about:
1. Sterica
2. Boyd/Erica
3. Stora
4. Stallison
5. Dreaden
6. Malira
7. Allydia
8. Allisaac
Now, let's move on to my OTPs that were canon or that I wish where canon
1. Stalia (the definition of "Right person, wrong time" in a way becahse he fell when she wasn't quiet ready and she fell when he hated himself. Their love was pure and not conventional which is why most of you all hate it.)
2. Scira (the most pure love. Someone with a broken heart learns he can learn, the girl who falls first and the boy who falls harder, sunshine and sunshine, cuddles in bed, candlelight dates etc.)
3. Thiam (enemies to friends to lovers in a weird way. Someone learning to be human, someone learning to open up, two people who hate each other being the only ones who can find comfort in another etc.)
4. Marrish (Aquaintence to friends to lovers, just a true normal love story. Two people who searcg for answers, who help each other with their problems, who grow to understand each other, who grow to work together, who become someone the other can turn to, etc.)
My favorite what-if-ships:
1. Kira/Isaac (could have been so great but alas)
2. Scisaac (we should have seen them together)
3. Stira (Maybe just as a friendship but they have so much potential)
4. Scydia (you can't tell me there wasn't something there)
5. Malia/Isaac (they have potential without ever having a single scene together)
So, if you couldn't guess already here's my favourite 5 characters:
1. Kira
2. Parrish
3. Isaac
4. Theo
5. Malia
My least favourite characters:
1. Kate
2. Peter
3. Jackson
4. Derek
5. Jennifer
So,just a glimpse into my Teen Wolf thoughts.

It's easier rationalizing a decision after the fact when you think you're the correct party. Archie knew himself better than anyone thought they could, understanding how arrogant he could be to believe stealing Cora so shamelessly saved the poor girl from the strict upbringing of her grandparents who would have certainly become her guardians if not for his rescuing. It can be argued someone with as high of a caliber he carried shouldn't start a family, raise children, for who can possibly subject the epitome of innocence to the horrors brought upon by an assassin's world? The bloodshed and the trauma? Archie displayed selfishness and narcissism at every corner, but even with his personal flaws to the contrary, Cora's ability to wrap him around her finger was instantaneous.
As it appeared, Kaia did not share her niece's opinion of Archibald. He only staked a guess what exactly she thought of him since her arrival. Vile, manipulative, opportunistic regarding his current obsessions, but Archie considered the Morris woman the downright fool if she held any hope of understanding him completely nor will she ever fully grasp how far he went to possess anything he knew belonged in his unrelenting orbit. Attracted to her as he was, for anyone oblivious to Kaia's breathtaking beauty were blind, the male never saw himself unlocking every dark secret and skeleton in his closet because sure as hell as the sun rose tomorrow he had them. No, this was uncharted territory and dangerous emotional waters nobody dare cross with Archie. Her hatred and defiance, her resistance, painted a clear picture his lust wasn't reciprocated. Not that he couldn't push her to the ledge.
He pressed a hand to his chest and hissed mockingly at her oh so lovely first greeting, pretending as if she offended him, "Ouch, your words gravely wound me. How I wish I could feel it." The amusement coated Archie's expression as he speared his fork through a sausage link, Kaia's statement only causing him to abruptly stop what he was doing before his gaze slowly lifted to meet hers. "Ground rules?" A near threatening note laced his tone, losing the playfulness for a brief moment, "Baby, has it magically slipped from your mind whose roof you're under? Whose daughter is watching television in that very room there like an angel? My house, my rules." Archie set down the fork he was using and leaned back in his chair with both arms crossed, "However, I'm nothing but a man of compromise. Pray tell, Kaia, what are your stipulations?" He held up a finger, "Let me guess, no touching? I'm not that brand of psycho if you think I'd force myself on you."
kaia knew she wasn't exactly the right person to be looking for her niece, she knew that but it hadn't convinced her to give up her efforts even long after her parents had decided to accept the tragedy that had befallen their family. they sealed cora's fate along with her parents, and kaia couldn't stomach the idea that the world could be so cruel as to murder her sister and her niece for no good reason. it couldn't be seen as balance, surely not, surely mother nature hadn't deemed them worthy of balancing some sort of karma. kaia was the one in her family not worth a thing, her mother and father had done well enough to reassure her of that each day of her life, much more so in kira's passing. no, kira was the one that should be alive right now, and cora should have her parents, but most of all, could kaia not bring her mother back, she could bring cora home to her family.
it was a weird sense of belief that she had. she believed by some unbeknowst force of sheer will, she'd be able to find her niece. her mother and father refused to speak of it, they even erected a grave in their granddaughters absence and that alone was enough to fuel kaia's efforts all the more. she'd abandoned her family and gotten involved with the worst kinds of characters in hopes of finding someone, anyone who could know anything about what went down in her sister's house that day. somebody must have caught wind of that young girl suddenly appearing somewhere. surely, someone must have had eyes on her at one point.
her efforts were not unsuccessful in the beginning. she wondered now, if she could go back, would she have walked away from the home of a notorious, albeit elusive assassin? she'd been warned off. don't go alone. those who warned her were right too, after all, who was she? she had no right to be waltzing into his life. she had no illusion of thinking she would surivive the encounter but she had to know the truth. if only she had known that what she was doing, was playing directly into her captor's hands. this was what archibald wanted, and it was what he got.
the following day had been something of a blur, she'd only caught a glimpse of her niece, who remembered her faintly, but not enough to find comfort in her arrival. not enough to abandon the man she now called father. the whole set up made kaia ill, but could she turn her back on the young girl now that they were finally reunited? it was a relief, to some extent, that cora was looked after, cared for, potentially even loved, although she had sincere doubt that archie could feel much of anything at all.
selfishness, perhaps, led kaia to agree to stay the night, though not without pause. she had pushed a chair up to her door, unsure of what would happen, unsure of how safe she could feel in a house that not only wasn't hers, but was that of the man who murdered her sister in cold blood. it was a surprise to the young morris woman that she slept soundly for the first time in a year. kaia woke up that morning with only one thing on her mind. cora my have been safee and happy here, but she wasn't willing to abandon her niece again, she wasn't willing to return to a world that didn't have some part of kira in it. she knew the ultimatum, understood that agreeing to stay here, agreeing to be in cora's life meant giving up what she had before. the response could not have been more clear in her sound and rested mind. she would give it all up for her.
making her way down the stairs that morning was surreal, all of this felt like a sick twisted dream that her mind had conjured up to torture her, to pile on the guilt that she already felt crushed beneath for simply surviving in a world that kira did not. being without her sister was torture enough, yet her mind was dramatic, she had come to understand. she expected all of this to dispaear from around her and had no doubt that it would.
as she made her way through the corridor into the dining room, kaia's first focus was the sight of cora sitting in the other room, perched in front of the tv watching cartoons and eating her brakfast. her heart swelled at the image, such normalcy for a little girl who had been torn away from everything she knew once. reality came rashing down, however, when archie addressed her. kaia's jaw set, just as she had the day before, she looked at him with nothing short of malice. fear slipped away as easily as it had when she pointed hre gun to his face despite knowing he could easily overpower her. she dind't want him to see that he was uner her skin, she didn't want him to abuse her weakness anymore than he already had.
" go fuck yourself, " she responded without missing a beat, but she took her seat anyway, staring down at the food in front of her. she glanced around them and then reluctantly looked up at him again. " if I'm going to stay here, we need to set some serious ground rules, " she breathed, deciding not to tell him her choice right away, even if he had made it perfectly clear that there was no real choice here.

First Mass Effect: Andromda impressions, now that Iâm sixteen hours in and not going to play again until tomorrow (thanks, Panic! At the Disco! Â Makes for a great week).
Potential spoilers under the cut!
- The facial animations are...not great, but itâs not really detracting from the game. Â Kind of horrifying when someone tries to grin but itâs not so hard to get over. Â Graphics are okay, but I donât like close-ups on human faces because theyâre...blotchy. Â I foresee playing in 4k making a difference, but I didnât plan ahead far enough to get the PS4 Pro.
- Â The game definitely reminds me of ME1. Â At first, this was kind of annoying, but itâs starting to grow on me because now Iâm seeing the resemblance to the way the worlds in Inquisition were laid out. Â Thereâs just so much world, too, but the fetch quests arenât quite as grating as Inquisition. Â Itâs less gathering items to give to someone and more...hey, thereâs a shield over there. Â Go look at it. Â You looked at it? Â Great. Â Quest over. Â
-  I have a mission called âkicking rocks for scienceâ.  It was given to me by a Turian scientist who asked me if I wanted to kick rocks for science.  I love it.  Iâve only kicked two rocks for science.
- I love Gil. Â My love for Gil grows more and more with each passing interaction. Â He did randomly ask me if I want to have kids someday and I canât romance him, but heâs great and heâs officially my friend. Â He beat me in poker because I was honorable and didnât cheat but if we play again Iâm taking him down.
- Gil is afraid of Jaal because Jaal is the best poker player on the ship, next to him. Â
-  I might have to fight Peebee for Jaal, âcause I get the feeling weâre both down with the squid-cat-man and heâs already told me how he enjoys flirting with me and he has also agreed to get to know me better.  I love it, I love him, but I would fuck my way through all of Aya if I thought our thing wasnât gonna work out.  Something about the squid-cat-man.  Pretty eyes, very pretty eyes.
-  Cora annoys me.  I hate to say it, but Cora sucks so far.  I am a huge fan of overpowered women and people being with groups they wouldnât have been in if they werenât overpowered/super-competent, but every other fucking word out of her mouth is âoh, itâs so hard to be so overpoweredâ or âeveryone called me a freak growing upâ or âasari this asari that huntress commando blah blahâ.  I am cautiously optimistic that sheâll grow on me, when she moves beyond this, and I know sheâs not happy that my dad picked me to be Pathfinder instead of her.  Thatâs fair, I get it.  It just feels like sheâs trying to prove how much more qualified she is, until she breaks out the line that sheâs always had a plan to follow.  Itâs never âhereâs what I would doâ, itâs always âwhat would your dad/the Asari doâ.  She wants to be leader but I think sheâs better suited to being pointed in a direction and told to fuck shit up.  As long as itâs a tactically sound command, anyway.
- Â I got to tell someone I was going to fuck their shit up. Â Verbatim. Â Loved it.
- Â I have a lot of Cora thoughts. Â I wanted to like her so badly, and I do understand what Iâve seen of her character so far. Â Grew up feeling like a freak, always different, taken on this grand adventure where her mentor immediately dies and instead of taking the crown itâs handed off to someone she sees as significantly less likely to get shit done--but I can only see her faltering if she were actually made Pathfinder, like sheâd always be second-guessing herself. Â Kaidan had a similar background - crazy strong, grew up feeling like a freak, had a lot of tragedy in his early life because of his biotics, but his self-assurance makes all the difference.
-  Maybe there shouldâve been a designated chain of command instead of my dad going âhere put this AI in your head everything will be fineâ.  I watched RvB - it was not fine.  None of it was fine.  A chain of command would have fixed half my problems with Cora if she never had expectations of taking the helm.  Unless, of course, the chain of command went dad > Cora and she is rightfully pissed off that my piece of shit dad was like lol nvm.  As far as I can tell, it was only implied that she might be Pathfinder if anything happened to him, but Iâm not 100% sure.  I am only sixteen hours in.
- Â You know who I actually outright hate in this game? Â Foster Addison. Â Holy shit, Foster Addison sucks. Â âIâm not your new motherâ what the fuck does that mean you piece of shit? Â I donât want you to be my new mother! Â Wtf. Â I hate her. Â Cora is an angel compared to Foster Addison. Â
-  Maybe Cora doesnât suck.  Maybe I think she sucks because sheâs bitter about shit and sheâs handling it the same way I do in rl, by complaining.  I donât know.  This is either bad writing or itâs too early in the game for her to really move on from that disappointment.  As my Ryder, though, Iâd probably throw her out the airlock because I can only assume I loved my dad and hearing her go on and on about âwhat would your dad doâ has to get grating.  Like, dadâs dead, broâs in a coma, I talked to bro once and heâs kind of upset that heâs in a coma and dadâs dead and our golden world was actually a shit world.  I got things going on in my life too.  Iâll have to contemplate Cora more; it says something, in a way, that sheâs the one Iâve put the most thought into so far.
- My roommateâs playing m!Ryder to my f!Ryder. Â Apparently he has webbed toes, but only a few, and I had wisdom teeth but he doesnât.
- Jaal is the most critical of my driving, but heâs very gentle about it. Â It still hurts my feelings. Â Iâm assuming my Ryder never took so much as a Driverâs Ed class because jesus fucking christ.
- I tried to screech into a Kett encampment in the Nomad to run a few over before shootinâ âem dead. Â The encampment was on a cliff and I was going too fast. Â I didnât hit any of them before promptly flinging the Nomad over the cliff. Â It was not dignified.
So far? Â I like the game a lot; the story is interesting and Iâm constantly unsure of what decisions to make because I donât know how itâll impact the future; having this uncertainty is great, though, because I miss my actions having consequences. Â I also like that I am consistently referred to as an alien by the Angarans because, yeah, weâre definitely the outsiders here. Â Interesting to see how that unfolds.
Iâm actually kind of bummed I canât play again until tomorrow/that I had to stop early last night, but I get to see Panic! At the Disco and itâs going to be worth it.

Sterek Fic Rec - June 2022. Iâm late for a very important date! I feel like the white rabbit in Alice in Wonderland. Sorry team. I know I am a few days late but enjoy! :)Â
Seriously, it's like you're photoshopped. by orphan_account (1/1 | 8K | Teen)
"Oh my god," Stiles squeaks out again. "You're unbelievable."
Hot Bar Guy bobs his head agreeably. "I've been told that before, though usually people are more out of breath and less clothed when they say it."
Or, the Crazy, Stupid, Love AU nobody asked for.
If being sexy was a crime, youâd be guilty as hell. by DropsOfAddiction (1/1 | 14K | Explicit)
Derek tries and fails to shut his gaping mouth as Stiles arrives at his desk, heartbeat rabbiting a little faster than usual.
Stiles grabs a file out of his desk, muttering something about forgetting to mail it yesterday and needing to get it down to filing by Monday. Derekâs barely paying attention, unable to concentrate with the scent of him right under his nose.
He leans over Derek to grab an empty envelope from their shared stationary tray and Derek knows heâs absolutely fucked when he sees how his trousers are moulded to his perfect ass.
âSo.... how do I look?â Stiles asks casually as he stands back up, as if his very presence hasnât just given Derek a very sudden and uncomfortable boner.
He looks like he should be on the cover of GQ.
What Derek wants to say, what he really means to say, is that he looks fine. Quite nice, even.
What comes out of his mouth is so far from that, itâs almost ridiculous.
âYou canât go out looking like that!â Derek manages, sounding choked.
Stiles pales.
Youâd Be So Good To Come Home To by SylvieWÂ (1/1 | 5K | Teen)
In Stilesâ final year of college, Derek decides to rebuild the Hale house. He keeps asking for Stilesâ opinion on the house plans. Stiles doesn't realize that Derek is building the house with a mate in mind.
Mug Life by whateverrrrwhatever (1/1 | 7K | General)
Stiles hates the morning shift with the passion of a thousand fiery suns. The hot guy in the leather jacket with the boring coffee order might make him change his mind.
Grass Is Greener Where the Bodies Are Buried by mt_lyfe (1/1 | 2K | Teen)
âDerek, is that a hand sticking out from the petunias?â
Derek froze, âNo?â
Ink Stained Hands by xxjinchuurikixx (1/1 | 14K | Mature)
The moment the spell breaks, Stiles feels every rune in his skin turn cool and then dim, like fiery embers that have had water quickly rushed upon them. His head is spinning, and he blinks, once, then all his strings are cut, and he collapses. * In which Stiles has magic, tattoos, and an irritating crush on Derek. And Derek is just Derek.
Lemon & Ginger by kaistrex (weishen)Â (1/1 | 2K | Teen)
âIsâIs he myââ The word dies in his throat.
âHow did you not know?â Laura screeches and Derek feels his hackles rise, defensive.
âWhaâBuâBut he smells good to everyone!â
âNot that good,â Cora scoffs.
âYeah, not good enough to hump him over it.â
âI didnât humpââ
âYou kinda did,â Stiles agrees, scratching at the back of his head. âThough I canât say I minded.â
-
A new tea shop has opened in Beacon Hills, and Laura drags Derek along so he can try the incredible, memory-evoking drinks for himself. Heâs soon going back for more, but is it because of the tea, or the owner?
The Witching Hour by loserchildhotpants (1/1 | 8K | Teen)
The radio host AU no one ever asked for but I have written anyway because sometimes when DJâs play several sad songs in a row, I worry about their mental health and then this AU was born
You Fit Me Better by Jerakeen (2/2 | 5K | Not Rated)
It's only been eight months since he started having the dreams, but he's already cracking. He's heard of people living thirty, forty years with them, unable to find the one, complete the bond.... He doesn't know if he could do it. The euphoric, in-love feeling that used to carry into his day now hurts. It feels like someone's ripping it out of his chest every morning and he's bleeding, all day, until he's asleep again and he is there.
subways & superheroes by totleightowers (1/1 | 7K | Explicit)
Stiles inadvertently trash-talks a superhero, The Wolf-Man, to a superhero, The Wolf-Man, and somehow ends up having mind-blowing sex with a superhero, The Wolf-Man.
princecharmingwinks special mention (so I never read WIPs but I made an exception for this fic and my gosh what a fun ride it has been for the last 2 years. Recently completed and so now I can rec it. Enjoy my followers who like longer fics!!)
Same Old Song and Dance by Halevetica (91/91 | 125K | Explicit)
Raised in the hunter life after his father was killed, Stiles hates werewolves. So when he lands a contract to kill the alpha of the pack that killed his father, he's elated. Until he runs into complications. The alpha is smart and strong and playing a game Stiles can't figure out. When secrets are revealed and new enemies made, Stiles must decide for himself what side he's on and who he can trust.
We are halfway through the year team, wooo! I also read a few fics over 10K, look at me go (but donât think this is the norm haha). See you next month !

Why Cora Crawleyâs personality changes so drastically after season 1:
A theory on why Cora sometimes came across as an airhead (said affectionally of course) in season 1 of Downton Abbey. (Twitter saw this first)
Iâm going to start by saying that I donât headcanon Cora to have ever been loud, I have always thought that Cora, from a young age, was less outgoing than her mother. Cora in my opinion was always calm, quiet and polite, much like I imagine her father being.
I think that this was partly what drew Robert to her, that she wasnât a stereotypical loud American, but someone who could make him an elegant wife and future countess. That being said, regardless of how perfectly graceful young Cora might have been, as an American she would have been held to extreme standards. Whereas Violet, as an English woman, born in the aristocracy, can afford to be bossy and not your perfect obedient wife, Cora canât.
Now that I have explained my view on young Cora, Iâll explain the actual theory:
In season 1, we see Cora as a bit of an airhead and I think this is a coping mechanism. I donât think Cora is aware of the fact that she uses a coping mechanism in any way, but it still is one.
This does not mean that she is in any way, unintelligent in the first season - in fact I would argue you can see in the way she can read a room that she is emotionally intelligent at the very least. However to a woman of her standing, it is not really important to be extremely intelligent. Cora would have been expected to be capable to hold an interesting conversation with a man, to be smart enough to lead her household and to be a courteous hostess. Beyond that, she was not expected to know very much at all or more importantly, she was not expected to outwardly show how intelligent she was. She was not expected to be very opinionated and share those opinions, nor to advice men in any way. And I think in many ways this is what you can recognise in s1 Cora; she is a perfect hostess and wife, she leads her household, she goes to tea and she embroiders. She is pretty and she is good company. Cora is and does all the things good aristocratic are supposed to be/ do. But it feels sometimes like beyond those things, thereâs not much that goes on in Coraâs head. A scene where I personally think you can see what I mean with Coraâs airhead energy is the scene where Cora tries to convince Mary to invite a suitor to Downton so she pretends she knows his mother, only for Mary to reveal his mother is dead. The face she then makes and the fact by itself that she attempted to persuade Mary in this way, felt to me like it wasnât thought through at all. This behaviour, coming from Cora, is a coping mechanism.
As I said, she would have been held to impossible standards as an American, so as a young girl I think Cora unconsciously learned that it would be easier to just not care, to be happy to just be a polite, sweet wife. If Cora had been loud and opinionated, if she hadnât confirmed to the perfect English wife and lady, her life at Downton would have been so much harder for her. So Cora doesnât try to advice people, she doesnât try to share her opinion and show everyone how intelligent she is. Season 1 Cora, does not try to advice Robert or share her opinion on important matters or to be included in the conversation in the way Cora does do all those things in the later seasons. The only thing you see her mingle in a lot, is âfeminine thingsâ, like what her daughters wear or their marriage prospects.
Other than that, all she seems to do is comfort Robert and when she does offer advice, she doesnât seem to mind it being ignored so much. Because of this, it doesnât make her sad when she is not heard.
In season 2, we see that Cora is in a way forced to step up and take on a very different role. (I say forced because she obviously could not just let Isobel take over her house, the one thing she had always known was hers to lead) and because of her stepping up like that, we see how capable she is - in fact she is so capable that Isobelâs help becomes irrelevant -, we now see the full extent of her intelligence and capacities. And I feel like this is the first time that Cora herself realises what she could be if given the chance. She realises that she enjoys leading, she enjoys doing something of substance instead of having tea and embroidering. During this time, she doesnât have to rely on her coping mechanism, in fact, she canât do what she does in season 2 while holding on to her coping mechanism. So the war basically forces her to let go of it.
After Downton goes back to normal, you can see how Cora tries to go back to normal after a while. Only now, resorting back to the same coping mechanism as before, is impossible because the illusion is broken. Cora can no longer pretend to enjoy what she was before the war.
And this is how you see that the airhead-y vibe that she had in season 1, truly did help her cope. She seemed pleased with her role as Robertâs wife and companion in season 1, but in the seasons after season 2, you can often see she wants to be heard. Cora in the later seasons, often tries to be included in conversations, she tries to share her opinion and advice, but she is often ignored - while Mary is included - which must sting. This clearly makes her unhappy.
In season 5, when Cora spends time with Bricker, she finally feels heard and appreciated. There finally is a man who thinks her opinions are worth listening to. It makes her feel valued and it makes her happy in a way she hasnât been happy in a while.
I think that the more Robert starts to appreciate that Cora is her own person with her own goals and ambitions and opinions, the happier Cora becomes. Which is why it was so vital for Rose to show Robert how much Cora is in her element when she speeches at the hospital. Because this is who Cora has deep down always been; The person she was before season 2, was simply a front she put up towards herself and others because it was easier.
(Ps: Iâm sorry the formatting is so weird, I have no idea how to work with Tumblr and the spaces and everything look so weird)

Trafalgar Law [A-Z Alphabet Fluff]
Synopsis: How is Trafalgar Law like as your romantic partner? đ
Count: 2813 words
Activities
Reading. Law is an avid reader. He loves to read all kinds of material, both fiction and non-fiction, such as short stories, novels, comics, articles, news, and medical textbooks. As such, you took it upon yourself to read together with him. During nights, when the rest of the crew retires to their quarters, you and Law take turns reading to each other. As your quiet and gentle voice fills the silent room, Law visibly relaxes. A faint but genuine smile graces his normally impassive features. When it's his turn to read, you enjoy the calm and soothing nature of his voice.
Resting/pillow talk. While Law is known to suffer from insomnia, he enjoys resting in bed together with you. This is usually accompanied with reading, but when you're both exhausted, both of you lie together in silence or in hushed sounds through light conversations. For the most part, you talk while Law listens. Law also tends to overwork himself so you being with him ensures that he unwinds for the day.
Medical assistance. Law is the doctor of the ship. As such, one of his primary duties is to perform both minor and major medical procedures when his crew sustains injury. He typically doesn't need assistance to conduct his minor medical duties; however, your insistence in helping him whenever possible has prompted him to seek your support. Despite your lack of medical knowledge, Law is not opposed to instructing you. You've proven yourself to be a reliable assistant. Truthfully, he enjoys having you adopt a nurse role by his side.
Beauty
Your compassion. Despite Law's outwardly aloof demeanor, he finds your kindness endearing. Heâs used to incessantly berating you during the many times when you put your life in danger to save others; however, he's resigned to the fact that your compassion for others is one of your defining qualities. It's what drew him to you after all.
Comfort
Law is perceptive. He can tell when you're feeling down, and he can definitely tell when you're about to have a panic attack. He's quick to shift to his doctor persona, guiding you through breathing exercises as you breathe in and breathe out while slowly coming to your senses.
Law is not overly affectionate, but if you desire hugs or other forms of physical contact, he will give them to you without hesitation. You have his undivided attention.
When you recover, Law is cautiously optimistic and takes your vitals. He asks if you're feeling better and if you'd like to talk about it, but he's not forceful if you're not willing to disclose information to him.
Dreams
In the moment. Law is happy to live in the moment with you. Thinking of the future unnerves him, as his carefully arranged plans do not always develop the way he expects them to.
Fate. Just like his meeting with Cora-san during the most tragic part of his life, he believes meeting you was fate. Your fates were intertwined from the moment you first encountered each other, and they will continue to be until the day both of you breathe your last.
Equal
Dominant. Law has expressed his aversion for being told what to do. As the Captain of the Heart Pirates, he prefers to issue orders. While his dominance extends toward your relationship, this doesn't mean that he doesn't respect and value your opinions. He treats you fairly, as an equal, always making sure he listens to your input when you have something to say.
Law is dominant but not overbearing. As someone whose freedom was stripped away the moment he was born due to the Amber Lead disease, Law would never dream of taking away your freedom in any capacity.
Fight
Forgiving. It might surprise you to know that Law is an extremely forgiving person. He understands that couples get into disagreements; it's natural. So long as you don't betray his trust, he is willing to forgive and learn from most arguments.
Law usually appears collected when arguing with you; however, he loses his cool when you are quick to put yourself in harm's way. Law is not one to hold resentment after making up with you, preferring to be with you here and now.
Gratitude
Attentive. Law is aware of what you do for him. You try to be subtle, but he's quick to catch on. He tries to keep a calm façade, but he's overwhelmed with affection for you on the inside. You can expect him to snuggle closer to you tonight.
Law shows his gratitude indirectly. "Here. I got this on the way to town," he says, handing you a bag of your favorite sweets. He doesn't say it, but he loves watching your face light up in excitement at the prospect of stuffing your cheeks with delicious desserts.
Honesty
Although Law is honest, he tends to fill you in with the details after the fact. He doesn't do this out of malice but out of necessity. As Captain of the Heart Pirates, ally of the Strawhat Pirates, and a member of the Worst Generation, his life is in constant jeopardy. Now, with you by his side, he's paranoid and won't risk being caught off-guard until the threats have been neutralized. He prefers to do now and talk later.
When reminiscing about the pastâas it relates to his childhood in Flevance and being under the care of the Donquixote family, specifically Cora-sanâhe struggles to share these painful memories. Although he opens up to you eventually, he won't willingly share all the moments when something reminds him of his past. How your kindness reminds him of Cora-san. How your love for festivals reminds him of Lami. He refuses to burden you with these thoughts.
Inspiration
Law is kind. Cora-san's sacrifice made sure of that.
Although Law regained his humanity, he doesn't put himself out there to assist others in need if doing so will jeopardize his plan. Instead, your insistence to help others forces his hand.
While Law believes that pirates should not do kind things, his actions contradict his statement. He will honor the Hippocratic Oath and use his Devil Fruit powers (Ope-Ope no Mi) to treat others to the best of his ability.
Law takes issue with being seen as a kind person by strangers. He refuses to accept others gratitude. When confronted, he will make up an excuse in an effort to portray himself as a selfish and ruthless pirate. Regardless, the recipients of his acts of kindness are not fooled.
Jealousy
Watchful. Law is protective. How could he not be when you look so radiant? So full of life, warmth, and affection? He trusts you. It's strangers he doesn't trust. He's worried other people will take advantage of your benevolence.
He deals with his jealousy by keeping you in his sight whenever feasible. If he can't be with you, he'll ask his crewmembers to accompany you. The life of piracy is a dangerous one, so one can never be too certain if danger lurks around the corner. "It's best to be prepared," Law states decisively.
Kiss
Great kisser. Law did not have any prior romantic experiences prior to being in a relationship with you; however, since then, he's had a lot of time to practice. He's able to perfectly balance sucking, biting and using his tongue when kissing you. When he initiates a kiss that's more than a peck on the lips, such as kissing your erogenous zones, it leads to a full-blown makeout session.
First kiss. Law's lips moved hesitantly over yours, his tattooed fingers skimming your blushing cheek, before deciding to gently cradle the side of your face. You were pleasantly surprised at how soft his lips were considering his roughened exterior. The kiss remained tentative at first, both you and him feeling overwhelmed with each other's company. You weren't certain when his hand moved from the side of your face to the back of your head. You felt his calloused fingers interweave with your flowing hair, lightly tugging until you opened your mouth to moan softly. Law deepened the kiss by slipping his teasing tongue inside, eager to hear more of your voice as you moaned for him once more.
Love Confession
You are the first to express your love for him. Law is flabbergasted. How could someone, as kind as you are, have romantic feelings for a man like him? It's a dangerous thought, one he refuses to answer. Meanwhile, Sengoku's words in Dressrosa echo in his head. "Don't ever attach a reason to someone's love." His recklessness presents itself and he allows himself to act.
Staring at you with you such longing in his golden irises, he grabs your arm, intent on closing the distance between your bodies. His grip is gentle yet firm as he drags you over to him, and your face flushes under his observant gaze. Although you were nervous, you refuse to break eye contact, determined to show him how sincere you were. Law responds by molding your eager lips against his. After all, actions speak louder than words.
Marriage
Indifferent. There is no doubt that Law loves you; however, he is indifferent about marriage. If you bring it up as a discussion point to him, he will start to consider the prospect of marriage life. Growing up, heâs seen how happy his parents were, and how much love and affection they showed him and Lami. He wonders if that reality is plausible for him too.
Once the way has been paved for the New Generation of Pirates, Law proposes. In the Captainâs Quarters of the Polar Tang, he presents you with a small velvet box with an inscrutable expression on his face. His golden eyes betray him as they waver in intensity, carefully scrutinizing your face and eyes for movement, for your reaction during this vulnerable moment. When Law proposes, itâs direct and sincere. No flowery language. He speaks from the heart. âMarry me. I love you.â You were more than happy to oblige.
Being married to Law is primarily the same as it was when you were datingâwith two differences being the wedding rings in your left hands, and that you can now refer to one another as a wedded couple.
Nicknames
Law doesnât use nicknames. He prefers to address you by your actual name. Prior to being in a relationship with you, he addresses you by your epithet as described in your wanted poster. Now, âS/O-yaâ is his go-to.
On Cloud Nine
Inconspicuous. Law is the king of keeping your relationship concealed to strangers. While Bepo, Shachi, and Penguin were the first to discover your relationship with the Captain, the rest of the Heart Pirates werenât aware of your relationship with Law until one year in. Outside the privacy of your bedroom, donât expect anything more than occasional longing glances passed between each other.
When Law falls in love, he does so gradually. He doesnât mean to fall in love until he realizes that you have been increasingly pervading his thoughts. At this point, he's in denial. Love is an inconvenience, a weakness that will distract him from his goal in finding the true meaning of the Will of D.
Law eventually comes to terms with his love for you. He feels undeserving, attempting to distance himself from you until you confront him about his aloof behavior. Your stubbornness convinces him that he can't escape. A smile tugs on the corner of his lips before he can stop himself.
PDA
Discreet. You can expect your relationship with Law to be on the down-low. Most people, outside of his crewmates, won't be able to tell that he's in a relationship as he treats you the same way as he would a member of his crew. If people observe him long enough, they'll be able to catch his eyes as they settle on you, wandering a little too long on your form, from across the room.
On the off-chance that someone asks about your relationship with him, Law won't explicitly confirm or deny his relationship with you. He's afraid that word will spread that heâs found a lover, leading to his enemies targeting you to get to him.
Quirk
Competitive. While Law doesn't willingly participate in contests, he finds himself reluctantly dragged into them by you. Due to his physical prowess and mental aptitude, Law is quite skilled in winning a variety of competitions, such as carnival games, trivias, and sports events. He gives the prizes he wins from them to you as a reward for cheering him on.
Romance
Cliché. Prior to being in a relationship with you, Law does not familiarize himself with the ways of courting. Hesitantly, he approaches Bepo, Shachi, and Penguin for advice on how to woo you. Within five seconds of that decision, Law regrets it as the trio begin to pester him with the details of your affair. He knows they mean well, but he can't help his annoyance. "You can't go wrong with flowers and chocolates, Captain," the trio states. He glares at them in acknowledgment, gathering the aforementioned gifts, away from prying eyes.
Law quickly learns that if he wants to make you happy, he needs to be upfront and ask you directly. He is thoughtful, tailoring his gifts toward your preferences. You do the same.
Support
Supportive. Having spent over a decade planning for Donquixote Doflamingo's downfall, Law understands what it means to be committed to achieving one's ambitions. He has nothing but belief in your ability to achieve your goals. With him by your side, he will do everything in his power to assist you. You need only ask.
Thrill
Routine. Law doesn't have the liberty to ponder over new and creative ways to show his love for you. You and him have settled into a comfortable routine. If you're feeling neglected, he expects you to be direct with him. He's not opposed to trying out new things to spice up your relationship; however, he's not a creative man so you should expect to be the one to initiate and propose new ideas.
Understanding
Law is an observant man. He understands you as a person, what makes you laugh, what makes you cry, what motivates you. He also has an exceptional memory and has made it a point to remember your favorites and your least favorites as they come up in conversation.
Having experienced pain and grief through losing his loved ones, Law is especially empathetic to those who have suffered the same fate.
Value
Above all else. The love Law has for you is different to the love he has for his crewâhis nakama. He loves you above all other things in his life. He is reckless, but knowing that you love him and will never forgive him for being negligent with his life makes him value himself more.
You are worthy of his love, but often times, he thinks to himself, is he worthy of yours?
Wild Card
Law enjoys brushing your hair. He loves the feel of your silky smooth hair and the way you hum in contentment under his care. His hands are always so gentle as he grasps your hair, treating you with a delicacy one can expect from a pirate handling their most prized treasure, which adds to the intimacy of the act.
XOXO
Law is not overly affectionate. Prior to being with you, he was touch-starved. Expect to be the first to initiate intimacy. Kissing and cuddles took some time to get used to. But once that period passes, Law does not hesitate to initiate romance by trailing kisses along your neck, playing with your hair, and feeling your smooth skin beneath your clothes. He prefers the privacy of his quarters when showing you any sort of physical affection.
Yearning
On the surface, Law hides his yearning for you well. During times of separation, he thinks of you as he lies in bed. He thinks of your warmth, your body heat combined with his as you snuggle against each other underneath the comfort of your bed. He thinks of your lips, curled up in a carefree smile, turning into subdued laughter. He returns your mirth with a smile of his own. He thinks of your face and how much he wants to caress your cheeks, feel the smooth skin beneath the roughness of his fingertips. He misses how your face would warm up in response to his touch, how you lean into him, eager for more. He reaches out instinctively, before realization kicks in. You weren't here. He misses you.
Zeal
Law is willing to go to great lengths for your relationship. He's grieved so much at such a young age from losing his mother, father, Lami, and Cora-san. His life is yours. He'll be damned if anyone stands in the way of him and you.

im sorry for the late night request purple. i dearly love you,
but i have a very verbally abusive brother (and sometimes physically) and im wondering how my husbands luffy, sanji, corazon, and denjiro
( and if youre comfy ) my wives nami and vivi would react to that-
so many character you dont have to do them all if you dont want to,,,,,,
you can chose owo đ
Thank you for being so patient with me while I catch up on asks!! I hope you enjoy boo!! Just in case, the characters we agreed on were: Sanji, Cora, Vivi, and Robin!
Going to put on TW for mentions of verbal abuse, just in case!
Babes Below~!
Vinsmoke Sanji
Heâs one to understand abuse the best, especially coming from siblings. He might want to âtalkâ to your brother and throw some feet, but will respect your wishes if you donât want him to. He does his best to let you know, that no matter what people say, even your family, he still loves you and thinks youâre amazing!Â
If you are having some bad days say after a fight, he will make your favorite meal and cuddle with you on the couch or in bed! Letting you know that people have opinions and sometimes we donât always share the same side and thatâs okay, but itâs not okay to lash out at someone like that. He will reassure you that you are deserving of love and he will love you always!
Donquixote âCora-sanâ Rosinante
Cora also understands sibling abuse! Though he and his brother havenât seen each other in such a long time, there is still some bad blood there that makes it hard for him to move forward in life. So, he gets the harbored feelings both towards your brother and at yourself. Though at times he can be a bit violent, he tries to think his actions through and wants you to have a good relationship with your family some day, so he doesnât want to do anything to ruin that chance.Â
Similar to Sanji, he will let you know what you mean to him and wants to be a shoulder for you to cry on. Let him know how to help you and the man will be your best supporter!
Nico Robin
Robin knows that people donât always get along, so it doesnât surprise her when you tell her you got into a fight or witnessing it first hand. Sheâs the type who will mediate if needed, but also knows this isnât her place and will support you after the argument. If the fight does get out of hand, the she has no problem ending it quickly.Â
During the more difficult times, she will be a good source of reassurance and logic in the situation. Itâs easy to let out emotions control how we feel, so she will be your reminder to help you understand both sides of the argument. Again if needed, she doesnât mind helping you make up either! Since she doesnât have any family anymore, she wants you to value the family you do have!
Nefertari Vivi
Vivi also knows families fight and donât see things eye to eye at times. Though she never experienced any negative backlash from her arguments, she does understand that some families arenât so lucky. She will support you though! Always letting you know that despite what your family might say in the moment, they still love you and wants what is best for you in their own ways.Â
Another validator in the group (I swear they all are words of affirmation lovers-), she will do her best to remind you everyday how much she loves you and how much you mean to her! Between random âI love youâs or simple peck on the lips, you own her heart and she wants you to know it!
Tag List: @chloe-nanami @musical-apple @luxiditea @macdonaldsmanager @onepieceya @undercoverweeeb @athenaportgas @simping-master-69 @portgaslari @sanjissunflower @xxtoothachexx @lukasismissing @chocolate-n-cheese @cipher-p0 and anyone else who wants to join in@

Since I joined the One Piece fandom, I was asked different times which character I ship with Doffy the most. Given I'm usually into self insert things, I'd firstly go with "my OC, of course đ"... But let's talk about what I think of Doffy's most famous ships đ
DISCLAIMER: all of what follows is TOTALLY my own opinion, don't want to judge anyone who thinks differently than me. OP is a fictional world made of fictional characters and anyone can ship whoever they likes!
So, here's the ships:
Doffy x Viola
Ok, let's start with what many people's don't want to hear: this ship is canon. Yeah. Like it or not, it's a matter of fact.
I honestly like them together, they're a weird couple but somehow they work. I like to imagine how could have been the dynamic between the two of them, and I'm more than sure there was nothing abusive from Doffy's side. I mean, sexually at least. I agree with the fact destroying one's whole life and Country is pretty abusive, but I'm quite sure the feelings between Doffy and Viola have been real for a while. Maybe the concept could sound trivial, but no one chooses who to love and Doffy has many characteristics which may definitely make a person fall for him. Not totally sure HE has ever truly loved her, but I like to think so. After all he does have a weak side and Viola might have been one of the few (even thanks to her powers) who managed to see it and knowing him deeply. This surely strenghtened their bond and it might have finally resulted in love...
My vote is a 8/10
Doffy x Cora
This is incest. I know. And it's indeed problematic and controversial. Irl a thing like this isn't exactly acceptable.
BUT as I told before, OP is pure fiction, so... I have to say quite like them tbh. In my opinion, as long as a relationship is adult and consensual there's nothing deeply wrong in it IN FICTIONAL WORLDS. (I know, there are fanfictions in which their relationship is abusive, but since weâre talking about headcanons here I like to think itâs not). Have you watcher GoT? Cersei and Jamie were one of the best written pairings in the whole series, the same goes for this situation imo, we have all the conditions to make this ship a sensible one.
Theyâre a realistic couple cause they went through a lot of difficulties together and, even if they chose different paths of life, their bond is very very deep. Their love is a desperate one, like âyouâre the only one in this world I can REALLY trustâ. This from both sides. The difference is that Cora is a pure person who just want to love and being loved while Doffy... well, heâs not exactly mentally healthy and heâs like âall or nothingâ.
A lot of angst and stuff, of course, for this reason my vote is 7/10
Doffy x Crocodile
Iâm sure someone out there is going to want my head for what Iâm about to write, the DoffyxCroco fandom is huge after all... but...Â
I donât like this ship at all.Â
Given one can ship two people with no reason or just because they wear matching colours and look good in fanarts (?) imo DoffyxCrocodile has no sense. They interact, yeah, but nothing about their dialogues or shared scenes makes me thing they could be a good couple. Even that most famous encounter at Marineford which made fanpeople scream... They looked just like contenders who quite disliked eachother, nothing less and nothing more :/ and Doffy saying âIâm jelous!â just gave me the same vibes of a childish sacrastic way to piss off a person, pretty much like the stupid classic âyou fight like a girl!â.Â
Theyâre aesthetically beautiful, nothing to say, theyâre both among the most handsome characters in OPÂ and have a similar story, so Iâm not saying I donât understand the reasons of those who ship them... Just... I want ships to be stronger and more credible than this :/
6/10 just because they look good in fanarts XD
Doffy x LuffyÂ
This is pretty diffused, but..... why.Â
I mean... what happened between the two of them which could have made them fall for eachother?? D: Have you ever tried to date a person after trying GearFourthPunch them out of the troposphere? °A° (Also, Luffy could LITERALLY be Doffyâs son. This is weird. Not the weirdest thing, but still.)
Srsly... If you like them together I ask you to tell me which dynamics are there behind this ship. Cause I really canât see WHERE do you see even a little trace of feelings between the two of them D:Â
Sorry D:
3/10Â
Doffy x Law
Gods, yes. YES.
This ship HELLA works from every single point of view. Doffy and Law are two of the most (if not THE MOST) well written characters in the whole series. They have a complete and complex background, a deep and multifaceted personality and, above all, an extremely strong bond.Â
Ship them or not, theyâre literally OBSESSED by eachother for different reasons.
 Law is the ONLY man Doffy considers almost his equal, he thinks heâs like the only person worth being his right hand man and Iâm quite sure heâs galvanized by the idea Law is the one whoâs gonna sacrifice his life to make him immortal. Like... a great life to complete an even greater one? This is insane. And yet beautiful.Â
On the other hand, Lawâs thoughts have been completely centred on taking revenge on Doffy for 10 years. Like, he was literally obsessed by that man, consumed by the hate he felt for him which obscured anything else, even his maniacal good sense in the end.Â
Turning this all into a tragic and tormented love story is as easy as drinking water. A long-term reciprocal hate mixed with a deep admiration for eachother (even from Lawâs side, after all Doffy was the one who thaught him almost... everything?) which slowly turns into something terribly different. Imagine the tension between two arch enemies who have to admit their hate melted into passion... and yet still have this latent feeling of wanting the otherâs death.......
Donât know whatâs your opinion about this kind of stories, but for me, the self proclaimed Queen of Angst, in love with the most tragical Theatre and Literature... THIS IS GOOD STUFF.Â
10/10 HANDS DOWN.
Doffy x TrebolÂ
What tHE ACTUAL F***K.Â
-10/10Â
Doffy x Bellamy
Please, no.Â
Alright, I hate Bellamy. Heâs exactly the kind of character I find terribly pathetic and incomplete. He barely has a personality of his own, heâs a wild fanboy with nothing original (not like Barto. Barto is the best fanboy ever. All my love goes to Barto.).Â
Now, he spent all his 34 years of life trying to... imitate Doffy? And yet he doesnât even manage to truly understand him. So heâs worse than a fanboy, heâs attracted to the idealization of a man whoâs not even half of the things he expects him to be. This is sad. Really sad. And call me a sadist, he deserved being humiliated imo. Maybe this helped him open his eyes and getting a life. Seriously.Â
It goes without saying I totally canât see how a relationship between him and Doffy could work. Doffy despises him, the only kind of plot this thing could have is a quite abusive one :/ and since I deeply dislike abuse.... no. This ship is totally out of question.
0/10
Doffy x Monet
This is another ship which barely touches the canon. I sincerely think the "love" between the two of them is pretty much unilateral. Doffy respects Monet, he deeply appreciates her abilities, intelligence and loyalty, she's clearly among his closest subordinates, but... He doesn't love her in a romantic way. As for Monet, she's totally in love with him, she'd kill and die for him. And in fact that's what she does in the end.
Monet is not among my fav characters, but I still feel quite sorry for how things went for her. She gave her everything away for a helpless, almost obsessive, love.
If something between the two of them really happened for real, I think it was merely physical.
For this reason, tough I have to admit they'd actually look beautiful together, I can't ship them :/
5/10
Doffy x Vergo
Ok, I dislike Vergo. He's quite a flat character imo, don't even like his design đ
I don't ship him with Doffy for this simple reason, but being honest they could perfectly work as a couple.
Vergo was among Doffy's very first "real friends", he was among those who were considered a family by him and, most importantly, he was the only one around his same age. They literally grew up together, likely supporting each other, and I wouldn't be honest if I said this has no chance to be a good assumptipn for a love story. A quite simple and basic one, if you want, but it's the most realistic kind of bond two people can make.
Still not shipping them, my vote is a honest 7/10.
Guess that's all?
Let me know what do you think about this đ do you agree with my votes? Or there are some points you totally disagree with?
Well, anyways. I had fun đ

Teen Wolf triads are something that can be so personal, so hereâs a list of my favesÂ
Scott/Stiles/Allison
The OG trio. The gang that dies together might not stay together, but theyâre still iconic.
Scott/Stiles/Lydia
Any Scott/Stiles/X dynamic is brilliant, but few more than this one. These three have been there since the beginning and theyâve gone through so much together. Thereâs no Teen Wolf without them.Â
Scott/Stiles/Derek
They were the driving force in S1&2 and had some absolutely iconic moments together. Hate that there wasnât more of them after that.Â
Scott/Derek/IsaacÂ
Mostly based on S2/3. I was very invested in Isaacâs struggle to pick between these two.Â
Scott/Stiles/Isaac
This triadâs dynamic completely changes between S2 and 3. In Season 2, Isaac, as part of Derekâs pack is a slightly antagonistic figure and itâs very much Scott&Stiles vs Isaac but in S3, Scott and Isaac grow closer while Isaac and Stiles erm, donât. Itâs very fun to watch.Â
Scott/Isaac/Allison
My ot3 and the only trio on this list that I 100% ship.Â
Isaac/Erica/Boyd
Ayy, itâs the OG Hale Pack aka 3 teens bonding over being thrown headfirst into something they werenât prepared for and Derekâs horrible leadership. Isaac shouldâve ran away with Erica and Boyd for solidarityâs sake.Â
Chris/Allison/Isaac
Chrisâs struggle between hating Isaac for dating his daughter and wanting to adopt him is hilarious. One of my favourites.Â
Scott/Melissa/Isaac
 Who didnât completely melt at Isaac joining the McCall fam? The scene where theyâre âguardingâ Melissa was so cute. As a bonus, it made Stilesâs animosity towards Isaac that much stronger. Will forever hate that this trio was more or less non-existent in 3b even though I love Chris/Allison/Isaac.Â
Derek/Cora/Peter
The non-dead Hales. Why oh why did Cora have to leave? Their family dynamic was great.Â
Allison/Lydia/Cora
I know they only had a couple scenes as a triad, but there was so potential. We love antagonism with underlying sexual tension. And ofc, the only thing better than 1 terrifying badass that can secretly be super sweet is 3 terrifying badasses.Â
Derek/Isaac/Boyd
At one point, the only non-dead members of the Hale Pack (TW quickly amended that). I always think of the S3a Loft scene where Boyd and Isaac skip school to protect Derek. Despite how awful of an alpha Derekâs been, they still care about him and he cares about them (as actual people and not just betas that he needs for power like he did originally)
Derek/Allison/Lydia.Â
Yes itâs my 5th s3 based trio in a row, but can you blame me? This is 100% based off the classroom scene in 3x02.Â
Allison/Lydia/Jackson
Although Lydia and Jackson were both awful in S1, their friendship with Allison and their immediately taking her under their wing was beyond precious. Additionally, it combines both the asshole-whoâs-soft-towards-1-person- dynamic (jydia w/ allison) and assholes-who-secretly-care-about-each-other (jydia) And ofc, the underlying tension due to Jydiaâs disdain towards Scott and later, Jackson and Allisonâs experiences/knowledge of the supernatural.Â
Malia/Kira/Lydia
Comedy gold. Their scenes speak for themselves and we needed more.Â
Liam/Mason/Corey
Their S6a dynamic is sooo underrated and shouldâve been given more screen time. I loved watching Liam and Corey struggle to get along for Masonâs sake because they want him to be happy. It was all very wholesome and one of the few things that made 6a worth watching.Â
Stiles/Scott/Liam
Aka the best part of S4.Their dynamic is so fun and well-balanced and infinitely better because theyâre a triad. Youâve got Scott and Liam figuring out their mentor/mentee relationship with Stiles co-parenting and preventing the Scott/Liam dynamic from turning unhealthy. (Liam and Scottâs S6 dynamic veered way too close to parent/child for my taste. They need Stiles to balance it out) Itâs also hilarious how quickly Liam accepts being aggressively adopted by two idiots who are barely older than him. And Stiles takes so easily to playing older brother/co-parent. Itâs adorable. Theyâre adorable.Â
Erica/Allison/LydiaÂ
Very similar dynamic to Allison/Lydia/Cora due to Cora and Ericaâs similar personalities but also not, which has a lot to do with Allison and Lydiaâs reactions to Ericaâs weaponized feminity. Also, thereâs a lot more history between these girls and I want to know everything about what Erica thinks of Lydia after going to school with her for years.Â
Sherriff/Melissa/ChrisÂ
Of the top of my head, I can only remember that time where they were trapped under the Nemeton and thatâs simply unacceptable.Â
Sheriff/Noshiko/Melissa.Â
Itâs a crime that this triad never got scenes. Especially after the Sheriff tried to arrest Kira. I know Melissa bitch slapped him but I wanted to watch these two badasses gang up on the Sheriff together. ( the Noshiko/Melissa dynamic would be so iconic.)Â
Victoria/Noshiko/Melissa
Another triad that never shared scenes (obviously because Vic is dead) but their power wouldâve been off the charts. I want to make a joke about milfs, but Iâll refrain.Â
The Yukimura fam
Seemed appropriate since my last two also included. Noshiko.I love family dynamics and the Yukimuras are no exception. The attraction of this triad, for me, is mostly the dynamic between Kira and Noshiko and how Ken navigates between them. Theyâre also a trio that we didnât see nearly enough of in S4 and 5. Like seriously, where were they? Noshikoâs on the dead pool, but sheâs barely mentioned. (on a mostly unrelated note, how is the 900 yr old Kitsune worth less than a girl that just found about her kitsune powers?)
Derek/Allison/Scott
I donât need to explain this one. The angst, the drama, Derek projecting Kate onto Allison and Allison trying to murder Derek and their evolution to reluctant allies with a good dash of Scallison and Scott navigating his own difficult relationship with Derek. Aka the complicated, tension fraught trio we all loved/should love. ( ok, I kind of explained it)
Derek/Scott/LiamÂ
And here we have a two for one deal; two mentor/mentee dynamics in 1 triad. People much smarter than me have written about this trio in extensive detail, so all Iâm saying is that Derekâs that one uncle who occasionally comes around and gives somewhat helpful advice.Â
Braeden/Malia/ScottÂ
Braeden and Scott were great in S4. Braeden and Malia were great in S5. Scott and Malia are pretty great when theyâre not in a relationship. Combine, and you get what had to be a kick-ass triad thatâs sadly never canonly shown together (I think)
Melissa/Chris/Isaac
Not actually featured in the show, but Isaac deserves all the parental figures and I want to witness the surely epic custody battle between Chris and Melissa.Â
Malia/Scott/Peter
That this trio is on here is actually pretty funny because I hate both Scalia and the forced Peter/Malia bonding in S6. But I loved the scene where Peter warned Malia not to fall in love with Scott because a) he has absolutely 0 right to advise her on anything and b) because of the history between Scott and Peter. In a way, a relationship with Malia is just another thing tying Scott to someone thatâs repeatedly caused harm to him and his friends and was the initial cause for all the pain heâs suffered in the last couple years. I just find this dynamic worth exploring.Â
Malia/Derek/Peter
The Hales 2.0. Derek and Malia deserve to bond over unwillingly being related to Peter, that scumbag.Â
Malia/Stiles/Peter
Stiles and Peter are so fun together and Stalia is my jam. Throw in an antagonistic Malia and Peter relationship and theyâre entertaining as hell. Much more lighthearted than Malia/Scott/Peter. Â
Stiles/Malia/LydiaÂ
To clarify, this has nothing to do with a love triangle and everything to do with how their personalities play off each other. Itâs one of those trios where together, theyâre either terrifying or absolute morons.Â
Stiles/Cora/Derek
Admittedly, my version of this is very Sterek+Cora and the hilarity of Stiles and his attraction to Hales but itâs also 3x snark and you really canât go wrong.Â
Scott/Stiles/MelissaÂ
Itâs Melissa and her boys 1.0. This woman is by far the best parent on this show, and I love the specific dynamic among these three. Melissa might not always like Stiles, but she cares about him and thereâs the mutual understanding that they both adore Scott and would do anything for him. Also, Mel being exasperated by the dumbass duo is always funny. Â
Kate/Allison/Chris
Lowkey another custody battle because Kate and Chris do fight to be the bigger influence on Allison This is such a tragic trio to me, and the lesson here is basically that sometimes love isnât enough. Chris and Kate both genuinely love Allison and she loves them too but canât have both and at some point, she has neither. Kate and Chris care about each other, but thatâs not enough either. In the end, they all lose each other. Thereâs no happy ending for them, at least not with each other.Â
Derek/Stiles/Peter
Stiles just has chemistry (not necessarily romantic) with all Hales and this trio really shines through in 3x01 and in S3 in general. âChess is Stilesâs gameâ asgdhfjgh. I wanted more of that very specific dynamic.Â
That was a hell lot longer than I thought it would be, but what can you do. Feel free to tell me your own opinions in the tags/comments. Â

Ranking the best The 39 Clues books(First season because the other ones just aren't canon in my mind).
SPOILER ALERT!
If you're a Clue Hunter and is reading this post, when you finish it reblog it and do your ranking of The First Season books(please I need to know I'm not alone on this fandom)(Please someone tell me I didn't get to this fandom too late). Also this is only my opinion. If you think different feel free to share your thoughts(respectly). So let's go:
My Personal Favorites:
10-Beyond The Grave(Book Four written by Jude Watson):
Honestly this book is overall good and I really wanted to go Egypt but that's only in this place because Ian and Natalie don't show up in person, they're only mentioned by Amy and Dan sometimes. It may seem like a stupid reason but Ian and Natalie were the biggest enemies of Amy and Dan, arch-enemies since the two understand themselves by person and their appearances have always been so iconic, the chases, the talks, the fights, the teasing so the fact they weren't in this book just didn't feel right. The Cahills and the Kabras have a lot of chemistry, both as enemies and as much something more(if you get me, lovers cough cough), and the Kabras have been sorely missed in this book(at least by me).
9-The Emperor's Code(Book Eight written by Gordon Korman):
I don't know compared to the other ones, this one just look kinda forgettable. Maybe because Amy and Dan spend a good part of this book apart. But of course the story has its good moments which are when Dan gives an autograph for a girl (D. Cahill is priceless), when Dan tells the Wizards that he is a Madrigal (as we say in Brazil: Iconic, Memorable and Timeless) (Dan was very amazing in this book, if you disagree, disagree in silence) and when Amy saves Ian(aka Love of her life) from falling off Mount Everest.
8-The Viper's Nest(Book Seven written by Peter Lerangis):
I love that one but the other ones are just better. I like the ending with Isabel(and everyone) thinking that the Clue was Diamond and It wasn't. I also like the scenes with Kurt because I wanted Ian to meet him and Kurt make Ian jealous of Amy(don't judge my dreams). Another thing that I really like is the history. I really like studying history and I learnt so much about Shaka Zulu. And was also with that book that I realized that Isabel had arrived to stay and that she would be the Main Villain in the end somehow. Maybe That's another reason why I don't like much The Emperor's Code:Isabel didn't show up and I thought she would appear in all the other books after In Too Deep. Natalie on Storm Warning said that Isabel didn't trust Ian and her to handle the Hunt without Isabel anymore since Russia so that just doesn't make sense. Maybe she didn't appearead to give Cora Wizard the spotlight but anyway let's continue.
7-The Black Circle(Book Five written by Patrick Carman):
I love this one so much. Probably because in this book we see that Ian is also in love with Amy. On Book three he seemed to like her but then he and Natalie let Amy, Dan and Alistair locked on the cave and we only see Amy Side of this story. Her sadness. But we didn't know if Ian was sorry, if he regreted his actions. And when they come back on this book we see Ian still likes Amy and the fandom goes crazy. I mean even if you are a Jamy/Carian shipper or shipps another shipp you probably shipped Amyan before because they were the only promising couple on the series(at least on series one). Back to the book I Love The Holts defeating the Kabras and Amy and Dan doing an Alliance with Hamilton(Dan envying Hamilton for driving a Kamaz will be Forever iconic). Also this book was when I realized Irina wasn't bad. I didn't like her in the other books and I didn't notice much of her but everything changed on this book and I started to love her. * sad sigh * Moving on!
6-The Maze of Bones(Book One written by Rick Riordan):
Uncle Rick(we call him like that on Brazil, in portuguese is Tio Rick) did a really great job on this one. For a series that has several authors writing, the beginning is very important and it is a great responsibility for the first author because those who will write later have to understand what you wanted to convey in the beginning to make a coherent continuation. Rick Riordan did it flawlessly. We can identify ourselves in the characters and we get really connected to the plot, the history, the riddles about Benjamin Franklin and after finishing the book we wanna know more about what happens next. So Rick Riordan absolutely slayed this introduction and no one can tell me otherwise.
5-One False Note(Book Two written by Gordon Korman):
This book is just unforgivable. I love this with all my soul. Probably because It talks about Mozart and his history and I really love arts. Also because the writing of this book is so satisfactory and so well done. I mean I really thought Fidelio Racco was a real person. What I also love about that book is the fact that every character get to shine. Amy and Dan are the Main characters but the appearences of all the other characters are really remarkable so yeah That's it. Deserves this spot on the Top 5 for sure.
4-In Too Deep(Book Six written by Jude Watson):
Going now to the four horsemen of the apocalypse from the best books of The 39 Clues. In Too Deep It's just something so perfect It's inexplicable. Something I don't like much about In Too Deep is that when Isabel was fighting to Irina and Ian and Natalie were watching Natalie was like:Irina is going to get Shoot on the head, That's gonna be so good. Like she wanted Isabel to do this, like she would be disappointed if she didn't, like she was used to seeing this type of thing. Then, In Storm Warning she was soft like:Not blood. It's so repulsive(several authors series problem but the series is good anyway). About that book I love the start, I love the middle, I love the apex and If It wasn't for Irina's death in the end this would probably be even higher than already is. Why Irina, Jude? Also:Why Pony? Why Erasmus? Why McIntyre? Why Alistair? Why Lester? Why Natalie? Why Evan? Why everyone? Why not Jake or Cara? Back to the story Jude Watson is Just a genius for transforming a dream(or a nightmare) in Isabel Kabra and adding her to the book. I don't wanna cry today so I'm just going for the next one.
3-The Sword Thief(Book Three written by Peter Lerangis):
If this book was a part The Plastics of Mean Girls, The Sword Thief would be Karen Smith of The 39 Clues, because let's face it:Amy and Dan were really dumb of accepting an alliance with Alistair and the Kabras. Principally with the Kabras. I mean they already were kinda used to temporary alliances with Alistair but not Ian and Natalie but they should have expected that It would have been bad on the end. I mean yes they needed Ian's coin to open the cave to find the clue but they look so surprised when Ian and Natalie leaves them on the cave and they shouldn't because that was obvious that they were going to betray them in the final. So they should have accepted the alliance but being more distant to the Kabras and preparing themselves in case they try something(which was obvious they would). But at the same time, I'm glad they didn't because AMYAN IS JUST MY ENTIRE LIFE(And even a little bit of Danatalie this book is Just a masterpiece). Just like In Too Deep, I love everything about that book, except the end. And I am a Kpop fan(not the cringe obssessed type) and I really like to study about North and South Korea and their history but South Korea's caves just left me depressed. I'm gonna cry so let's change the subject.
2-Storm Warning(Book Nine written by Linda Sue Park):
I love everything about this book. Literally everything. The start, the middle, the apex and the end. I love this book mainly because Natalie got the spotlight that she deserved. I don't know why I like Natalie so much since the start. Maybe because when I started Reading the books I was eleven, just like her. And Maybe because she was pretty, rich, savage and sassy wich I always wanted to be. But there is something more that I don't know how to explain that is really relatable about Natalie even with my reality being too different from hers and this book was the confirmation I needed that Natalie would be my favorite character Forever. I Also like it because it happened on Bahamas and Jamaica(two places I really want to go in the future) and It got a lot of revelations and twists in the end(wich I love more than everything on a book). If Storm Warning was a person and slapped my face I would probably say:Thanks, Could you do that again?
1-Into The Gauntlet(Book Ten written by Margaret Peterson Haddix):
I usually don't like the endings of books because I'm sad that it's over and as all the other books were good I usually demand a lot from the endings, even more than the beginnings (for me the final impression is the one that stays, not the first). I generally like the endings but I've never looked at a ending book and said: This one overcomes all the other books. I normally like more the start or the middle books. But man Into The Gauntlet caught me off guard. DoD is already a trash ending, comparing to Into The Gauntlet, DoD(fanfiction-forced-canon) seems even worse(if That's even possible). Everything about that book It's just top-notch, high quality, god tier, flawlessly perfect. Stan Haddix. We believe in Into The Gauntlet Supremacy.
It's going to have a part 2. Bye.
