to be completely honest... i think so many problems that plague fandoms would be solved if people remembered the concept of headcanons and accepted it for what it is

Once again, my favorite part of my job is pissing off my medic and ruining their day lmao

141 + reader

hc's when you five share the barracks together/just in general <3 (ooc, rushed my bad lmao, can be read platonically/romantically, reader is v close to them!!) kinda long oops 😩 might do a part 2 idk

nsfw version 🩷

there's a whole lot of testosterone and musk in the air when you're sharing living spaces with 4 men ‼️

all four men compete with each other to get your attention, even if it's unknowingly

whole lotta pouting when you're spending time with more man than the other, you're a great companion ;) and the army is lonely. they all need equal love and attention

speaking of, if you're smelling like one of them the other will immediately bundle you in his arms to put his scent on you instead and to cancel out the other (alpha behaviour 😵‍💫)

whole lotta flirting from each of them. they're all very intelligent soldiers, they know exactly what to say to get you going 😙

all of them adore the height difference with you. you get teased about it relentlessly (out of love obvi)

i don't think they're particularly messy men but ghost and gaz are the most cleanest, they like having their things in order and knowing where everything is

price is next because he's slumped with being captain so you'll see a lot of his paperwork around with coffee mugs from pulling all nighters

soap is more organised mess. it might look messy to you but he knows exactly where everything is

you, soap and gaz definitely have rap battles late at night. it starts of quiet but you'll usually hear price shouting at you three from his bedroom to stfu. ghost threatens to pull a grenade if you don't be quiet

assuming you're naturally a good cook, they'd all be so appreciative :") especially on bad days, your cooking reminds each of them of home (or lack of)

face masks! gaz would 100% be down to do them with you, soap would follow next because if gaz is doing it then he too???

ghost would roll his eyes, continuing polishing his guns with a rag "you ain't putting that muck on my face"

price would just look at you, shaking his head "got too much to do, sweetness"

but you're quite the convincer and all four men are on the floor of your bedroom, gossiping about the last mission with their preferred colour of face mask across their faces

assuming you're the only woman, they get very protective when you're hurt. soldiers get hurt from time to time but its different when it's you

"you alright, bonnie?" soap's gentle voice comes through your room as he hands you a warm mug of your fave drink

gaz had you wrapped in a big fluffy blanket, gently stroking your back

"who was it?" ghost's voice is firm, wanting to know who dared injured the youngest member of their team

"already got a handle on 'em" price follows, looking at the computer. whatever enemy dared to raise their hands on wished they'd be six feet under after all four men are done with them

you're the one each man needs when they're having a particularly bad day which are usually far in few between but sometimes it happens

gaz and soap are the types to seek you out, their faces settled in a troubled frown before they place their arms around you. no questions just yet, they just want to feel skin to skin for now. keeping them grounded before they can explain what happened. they're not looking for a fixer, just someone who'll listen

ghost and price are the type to isolate themselves for a while until it's night and then you'll find them gently knocking on your bedroom door and slipping inside, between your covers. their grip is strong, burying their faces deep into your neck whilst trying to wrap his arms as much as he can. these two won't talk much either, just looking to be held and stroked to calm down

ghost and soap are the type to show affection through lingering touches while gaz and price show affections through their words.

but speaking of hugs, each of them have their own special way they like to embrace

ghost thinks he's being slick but you realise just how touchstarved he really is, he gives hugs with his arms around your shoulders bringing you in to his chest. mostly because he's tall and broad but he likes how he can manhandle you from this position and smelling your scent <3

soap's the type to tackle you in a playful hug, maybe a spin to get a laugh out of you before he gently strokes your skin for a few seconds, a gentle kiss to your temple <3

price likes to hug from behind, resting his chin on your head while he looks at what you're doing. depending on you, his big arms are either wrapped on your waist or your shoulders <3

gaz gives side hugs because he likes linking his arm around your hips and he likes how you fit snugly into his body. and this way he can lean his head against yours and can bring you in closer with his other arm <3

all four can immediately smell you before you come in because they adore whatever perfume/spray you have

each of them would absolutely melt into pieces if you joined them/kept them company in what they were doing

and if they catch you in a towel after having a shower, best believe they're quickly walking back around to where they came from to help alleviate the growing... tent in their pants

lowkey kinda pervy 🫣 (never in a harmful way)

each of them have their strong points and would 100% train you in becoming stronger

even if you're a well established soldier, they all worry for your safety

price would teach you sniper techniques, ghost teaches you combat, gaz teaches you how to sharpen your aim and soap teaches you about explosives and how to construct/dismantle each of them

they take the training very seriously with you

a ton of cursing when their fave team loses lmaoo

if you're avid tea drinker, join the gaz/ghost/price club. if you're not, join the hater club with soap <3

ghost/gaz/soap will playfully fight with you, careful not to use their full strength and not to harm you. but it's so cute to them when you're struggling a little under them.

but when price scolds them in doing so, "i'm just helping in case there's an attack!"

if you're arguing against one of them, another will come to your defence. unless you're arguing all four then it's the silent treatment from you 🤭

all four of them melt when you call them by their real name instead of their callsign :")

ghost usually comes to you when his balaclava is broken and he'll keep you company as your fingers work their magic to the fabric, gently leaning against you as you speak to him

price will let you shape up his beard after you begging to do so and he grows to enjoy those tender moments

soap definitely calls for your help to shape up his mohawk, he trusts your hand to eye coordination above anyone elses

ghost will playfully ruffle your hair whenever you both pass each other

price gives you a gentle squeeze on the shoulder

gaz gives you a soft stroke on your arm or back whenever he's passing by

soap will gently tap his head against yours, not too hard to cause pain but just enough to know that he's there

but above all, the barracks you five share is definitely a safe space for each of them the second they come through the door <333

Aquapark HCS - MHA Boys x Reader

A/N: I dreamed about going to the aquapark last night and got these ideas lmao Bakugo, Shigaraki, Dabi, Hawks, Shinsou, Deku

KATSUKI BAKUGO

Doesn't really like swimming but will go with you if you ask

DOESN'T want to lose you in the crowd so he follows you around like a puppy

He wants to try something that you don't want? Like those horrifyingly huge slides? He'll tell you EXACTLY where he's going and will want you to do the same but he knows he can't stop you if you get distracted so he won't leave your side often

He really doesn't want to lose you in a huge place like this, what would he do without you?

You know that calm river with donuts? You both hold hands and you both have fun pushing your donuts under the small waterfalls along the way

He also likes the wave pool

You two are holding hands the whole day and he helps you dry your hair in the hotel room

If you ask him, he might invest in a pool for your house

SHIGARAKI TOMURA

He doesn't like water but he'll go because you asked

He doesn't know how to swim, but again, he'll go because you asked

You want to teach him, of course, but he doesn't want to when there's tons of people

Shigaraki's considering to break in a pool in the middle of the night just so you can teach him and just so he can spend more time with you

If the Aquapark is indoors, he's fine. If outdoors, pour tons of sunscreen on him, because he's white af and u don't want him as red as a lobster

He loves the calm river with donuts, because he doesn't have to swim

Shiggy also loves the slides that has donuts

Back at the hotel, he's worn out and he flops on the bed, almost instantly asleep but he will fight the sleep demon as long as you're not in bed with him

Oh and also, you two helped each other to dry your hair <3

DABI - TOUYA TODOROKI (Quirkless au tho because he prob can't get in the water with those scars :((( )

He hates those places

Too much people, too much voices, too loud

But he'll go anyways because ain't no way you're going alone

He chills on the lounge chairs the whole time

Watching you like a proud boyfriend and making sure u don't drown either lol

Sometimes he'll chill sitting in the water or getting to ankle deep

He's not going farther even if u beg him to

He also likes the calm donut river, except those waterfall areas where he'll hop off his donut and walk away from those, yes, even if the water is waist deep

Back at the hotel, he helps you dry your hair

He also watches tv all night while you sleep against him <33

HAWKS - KEIGO TAKAMI

He LOVES THOSE!!

As soon as you asked to go to a waterpark, he already reserved tickets

The only annoying part is that he has to leave all his feathers in a bag in the hotel room, he doesn't want to accidentally smack someone with those lol

He tries everything, slides, wave pool, donut river, EVERYTHING

He's like an overexcited puppy!!

He'll buy those funky bottles that look like zigzags

He'll buy towels as a souvenir

Fans will often stop him for selfies and signatures but he'd refuse some, not everyone, so people don't bother you or him too much

Back at the hotel, you help him dry his hair, he loves it when you play with his hair

HITOSHI SHINSOU

He doesn't really mind these places but sometimes people are too loud for him

He spends the whole day following you around but whenever you part ways, he trusts you and knows you'll find him or that he will

Had to tie his hair because he can't see shit with his hair on his face

Doesn't like having his hair tied but you told him that he looked great and he internally screamed

This boi also needs lotta sunscreen

You guys got selfies that you sent to his dad, Aizawa

You're both thinking about bringing his family, Aizawa, Mic and Eri next time

He got takeouts to end the day and u both fell asleep watching tv

DEKU - IZUKU MIDORIYA

Everything he brought with him for this outing had All Might on it, his towel, his backpack, his sunscreen, his swimsuit shorts, water bottle, EVERYTHING

He was embarrassed by it but hey you love him don't ya? You didn't care

He bought more all might stuff by the end of the day dw

He's kinda scared of the slides so he didn't go but he cheered for you

Someone tried to hit on you

Deku wasn't happy with this

He told them nicely to "Fuck off", yes he said those two words

You were shook, since when did he swear

He said he might or might not have learned from Kacchan, which made sense

You often had to run to him because his hair was hiding his eyes and you helped him, you both often laughed about this

At the end of the day, you both fell asleep against each other after Deku called his mom and All Might, they get worried, of course

☆°・. Aries Girl Culture .・°☆ | Punk Girl Culture

Note: the 'culture' described in this post can resonate with any Aries/1H/Mars placement and conjunction you may have in your natal chart~♡

The 1st Star on the zodiac wheel. Aries is the first physical embodiment of Spirit into Matter. Seated right between Pisces and Taurus, Aries can still be soft and empathetic (Pisces attributes) whilst holding the capacity for immovably strong leadership based on clear values (Taurus attributes).

Aries girlies are usually those who fight for justice like it's nobody's business. Because! Yeah, right, most of the time nobody makes it their business to fight for justice. This girlie is the baddest badass there ever is. She's Fire. She's Masculine. She sits across Libra the Diplomat. She's Cardinal♡That word means—she's IMPORTANT.

🐏🌷Irene (Red Velvet), Sakamoto Maaya, Keira Knightly, Lady Gaga, Mariah Carey, Halle Bailey, Emma Watson, Anya Taylor-Joy, Lisa (BLACKPINK)

The Divine, The Good, The Bad, The Bullshit

Appearance

୨୧ Worldwide famous for a youthful appearance. Actually, 'childlike' may be the word to describe her but depending on how you say it, she may or may not feel a little offended XD

୨୧ Literally thee prettiest girl ngl. Maybe due to that undercurrent Libra aenergy. But she ain't Libra; she Aries. What that means is: lotsa people assume she has a bad personality just because she's that pretty.

୨୧ It's because she has a fierceness in her eyes. Those are Warrior eyes, baby. She can't help her eyes looking 'mean' because she always means business. If her eyes scare you, maybe check the facts before you assume?

୨୧ Prolly has the healthiest hair with the littlest effort. If Leo is known for glorious, magnificent hair, Aries is known for a healthy scalp and strong, shiny hair strands. She ought to take care of her nutrition as she grows older tho.

୨୧ Permanent cheek blush without makeup! Especially after working out or doing yoga lmao She needs to consider that before applying makeup so as not to look like a hot mess under the sun.

୨୧ Nobody, I repeat, nobody, does red lips like she does. The right shade of red lipstick is her power move in this world that can often underestimate her boldness just because she has a baby face smh

Personality

୨୧ Loves competition—in a casual and silly manner most of the time. She's rarely ever that serious about it because she's hardly malicious. Though people could think she's arrogant just because she believes in herself and her capabilities.

୨୧ The whole time, she's just fiercely confident and doesn't give a fuck about pleasing other people. She ain't even need approval. She lives on her own terms and conditions. That undercurrent Libra aenergy actually makes her super smart!

୨୧ And once you get past her fiery gaze, you'll discover a gal who's deep down super sweet and warm. She's super chill with those she cares about and will share her snacks and gadgets.

୨୧ She cares about you and your problems like they're her own. So don't be a little bitch and take advantage of her warmth and kindness. She literally only cares for someone if she thinks of them as her friend.

୨୧ It's true that an Aries girl gets super heartbroken when losing someone dearest to her. That Libra aenergy makes her deeply loving in a way she may not always know how to verbalise but... She'll always love herself more than you.

୨୧ Sooo if she's burnt bridges to her, which she always does upon learning the depth of people's love for her, chances are, they gave her the matchsticks and the gasoline. Which is always such a loss, because...

Values

୨୧ Aries is DA GURL to save yo stupid ass from a toxic relationship. She's that one friend who isn't bothered by getting labelled as an 'anomaly of a woman' because she refuses to abide by patriarchy.

୨୧ In a group situation, she's most likely to jump to the defence of those abused and maltreated by society. The kinda gal who fights tooth and nail to defend her best friend, sometimes to her detriment.

୨୧ Still, if witnessed by the right people, she's thee definition of a girl's girl. She's the one that stands up against the cruelty of men and that's why she stands out! Weak and mean girls and boys hate that about her.

୨୧ Aries is the girl who fights for her dream life, too. You'd better not be in her way tho. She's just gonna burn you with her passion. She may be babie, but she a baby god! She doesn't play around. She's dead serious about LIVING.

୨୧ Exactly because she's baby, more than anybody else she gets that Life is precious. That's why she's driven and motivated with a strong sense of purpose: TO LIVE.

୨୧ To be something. To be someone. To have a name to her when all's said and done. To leave her mark in the world. To leave the world a more exciting, more expansive place because she was in it.

Aries’s Unique Kind of Bullshit

୨୧ What's really hard about being Aries is that everybody is in a competition with her, even when she didn't start or ask for it. There's a sense of her being better than everyone else, in all kinds of fields, but especially in terms of status and popularity smh

୨୧ The whole time, she's just mad workaholic. She's the one person who's most competitive with herself! And that's how she became the most competent worker/colleague/boss/leader what have you. And she's really quite friendly/social. We know that's a key ingredient to popularity and success -_-

୨୧ Except for when she lacks focus. An Aries who lacks direction, and a proper guidance, could find herself hopping from one interest to the next, real quick!, for the first 30 years of her Life. And then suddenly, she's grown and still has nothing to be proud of herself.

୨୧ Temper tantrums with one unaccomplished Aries could be HELLA CRAZIIIEEEE. Nobody deserves to deal with her kinda bullshit. She could have very little patience with people she deems have wasted her time or are incompetent at their job.

୨୧ Makes up her mind real quick, which could be a positive at emergency situations, but she could just as easily jump the gun or even jump to conclusions. Sigh...that's why maturing is important. Still, presented with facts/perspective, she's just as easy to adjust her stance.

୨୧ Prone to being 'blinded by love' as they say it. Maybe because her casual innocence has a tendency to translate into being gullible. She thinks most everybody in the world is just as honest and straightforward as her, which is utter bullshit. Demands to be worshipped in her relationships.

Spiritual Purpose! ♥︎

୨୧ Aries came into this world to manifest the dreams of the Cosmos into physical Reality. Perhaps this is why she's a fighter with a strong Ego. The Ego is the Lower Self. The Ego is the function within a Human that drives her to do and be active; acquire things, knowledge and experiences; as well as achieve success, glory and fame.

୨୧ The Aries Ego is a baby-god-ego that has the potential to inspire other Humans to stand in their very own individuality, for there lies their unique expression of Divinity in Human form. It would be the end of this world if everybody were only diplomatic and community-orientated as Libra! We need balance in this world because this world is rife with manipulators.

୨୧ It breaks her heart to bear witness to how compassion, patience and empathy of good people are weaponised against them. This happens a lot in politics and religion, which is why she educates herself on that, even if she doesn't necessarily feel that strongly about it; but she knows, there's a good cause to fight for out there: The independence of the Human Intellect.

୨୧ Remember, she's very smart! It's that Libra influence; but in contrast to Libra's diplomatic inclinations, she prides herself in having a mind of her own. For her, there's very little sense in parroting a dogma or a paradigm whereby the genesis (Aries attribute) is already blurry and quite long forgotten. She'll never let herself be that unoriginal tch

୨୧ For being smart, observant and having a strict no-bullshite policy, she finds herself often the only one who's noticing all the jerks her gal friends are dating (or into). It takes everything in her to bite her tongue and not say a damn thing unless asked. She needs help with her own crushes tho!

୨୧ She has the fresh eye of a baby to explore all of her potentials so they see the light of day, as well as the innocent heart of a toddler that believes in forgiveness and second chances. Buuut...that's just an ideal. In this unideal world, she just grows up to become a fiery dragon you can't mess with a second time~ She never takes people back in.

[derangedanomaly]

hallooo! Could You please do an angel s/o x The Bad sans's? Like, a reader who has Big white wings and iz all pure or too naive sometimes?

MUACK MUACK MUACK take care!!(⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)

Hello! Thank you for this lovely request! Hope you'll also take care! ^^

MASTERLIST

BAD SANSES X ANGEL S/O

NIGHTMARE:

You're the brightest person (except Dream) that Nightmare had the displeasure of knowing.

Everyone would be pretty much shocked when they find out you two got together. You're the complete opposite, and yet work so well together.

It won't be noticable to you, but the gang noticed that Nightmare's way more softer towards you than anyone.

Nightmare himself doesn't even notice the change in how he acts towards you, and how he acts towards others.

He'd often just watch you fly around, looking all ethereal and everything.

You know he's got it bad when he starts acting very light-hearted with you. He'd be all smiles and shit, even laughing at your jokes (which he'd normally find unfunny- since they're not dark jokes)

Finds your naiveness amusing... Oh, he'd have fun breaking you..... Lmao good luck

KILLER:

No one believed him when he told everyone that you two started dating...

They even laughed in his face! Because, ain't no way a spectacular being like you, got with a loser like him.

Will convince you to confirm that you two are dating. (Everyone was left flabbergasted by the way)

Truth be told, he'd probably be pretty surprised himself.. Killer might try to appear that he doesn't let the insults of others get to him, but that is far from truth. Some words really do hurt him. So he also really couldn't believe that you fell in love with someone like him.

He'd be bragging a lot lmao. Like, "look at my beautiful s/o!!"

He loves words of affirmation, so he'd shower you in compliments a lot.

Finds your naiveness funny. He sometimes can't believe how naive you are.

Has somewhat of a corrupt kink.. just something about the idea of corrupting your innocence gets him going..

DUST:

He's an admirer for sure. He seriously just loves looking at you with this deep love in his eyes..

He still doesn't understand how he scored you.

You're likes that cliche troupe of a popular girl x nerd. (He's the nerd lmaoo)

He loves observing every little thing you do... You might even say, he's fallen head over heels!

The others probably won't be surprised at all when you get together. Yeah, that's right. They've seen the way you two were pining for each other! Don't think they didn't notice.

Dust is actually really romantic, so he'd do all that romantic gestures, giving you roses, chocolate, opening the door for you,...

Dust actually likes how pure you are, makes him feel even more in love actually.

He's actually so worried because of your naiveness... Someday, this won't benefit you... But do not worry, he'll always be at your side!

HORROR:

THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST!!!

Horror would actually be so shy, he's afraid of making the wrong move.

He's really mesmerized by your big wings though.

COVER HIM WITH YOUR WINGS, PLEASE!! He'll love it SO much.

He finds your naiveness cute.. but is afraid of something happening to you. He doesn't have good experiences when it comes to acting nice and naive.

He's always protecting you from any danger, don't take it as him not thinking you're able to hold your own! He just feels nice when he's protecting you.

Please shower him with compliments, knowing you think like THAT about him, makes him feel really special.

He calls you "my angel"

Don't even try to lift him up and fly with him! He's too heavy...

[n3ptoonz]

Hello! I saw your most recent headcanon list thing with the Earthrealm guys being caught Slonking it Silly Style™ and uh. I was just wondering if you'd be willing to do something similar with the Outworld guys as well? Obviously you don't have to if you don't want to, but I think it would be neat! Thank you so much in advance! I love your work :)

deep, dramatic sigh. (kidding anon tysm i gush over comments like this ily smoochhhh) also the terminology made me laugh out loud ty for that

Shang Tsung

kinda sorta didn't gaf. who's to say he didn't want you to hear him. the world may never know

you were to report to him about some findings for his experiments and there he was, leaning over the table and straight up cranking it over a bucket (he's odd like that) honestly when you acknowledge your own presence he's like... can i help you?? you see i'm busy???

but at the same time he's like hold up i have a fine specimen here to help me out here...he's leaving here with SOMETHING (studio laughter)

Rain

i don't think he'd care either if you walked in on him. in fact, he might welcome it. he's used to having his own space, but he doesn't mind sharing it with people he's ok with being around. yes that includes you (is it only you? not even he knows yet)

day 8163 of using Rain's arrogance to push my narrative that he's not only in love with himself but how he looks in the mirror. you definitely walked in on him wanking it in the mirror and he'd freeze but recover so quick

ain't no way you're leaving here after you just caught him though. how else will his problems get solved? you went and made him hard all over again!

Reptile

syzoth has two, let's get that out the way. AND he uses both hands for them LMAOO

president of syzoth is a lil subby bitch society. so when you catch him tugging on both and reduced to a pathetic mess from his own hands??? he's frozen and quite literally has no clue what to do. he's sweaty, there's tears in his eyes, and his fangs are much more pronounced than usual

once you give him the green light that you're into whatever tf he was just doing watch him crawl over to you on all fours and hug your legs, practically begging you to touch him

Havik

expect this smug fuck to claim he wanted this to happen. dude was hunched over and going at it behind his own desk, grunting like a cave man who discovered self pleasure for the first time

1000% expect him to demand you help him, but instead it's after he froze for like 5 seconds and then tried to play it off

he would also be internally shocked when agree to finish the job, but on the outside it's like "that's what i thought...now get over here" whole time he's jumping up and down and twirling in his brain

Reiko

it's already rare that he has time to himself and definitely RARELY has time to be with you for an extended period of time, so you catching him when you wanted to surprise him with your presence it triggered his fight or fight LMAO

legit laughed at the thought of him jumping up from his chair hands ready to be thrown...but his dick is swinging PLSSSSSS

he's like well shit now he deserves your help after you almost got two pieced by your own boyfriend...but who's complaining?!

General Shao

this man weirdly reminds me of bowser sometimes. with that being said i think he'd do a BUAHA as a shocked sound when you catch him thwoping the schlong

as much as i can't fucking stand him he does look a lil better in this game i will admit. i'm not gonna sit up here and lie, he def has a HUGE wanker innit. so you didn't miss shit when you walked into his chambers

he would also demand your help. but if you have a lil push back just for fun, he'd eventually say please and be all soft and shit. why? cause it's you god damn it!

Baraka

let's be fr. truly i do not think mk1 baraka would masterbate simply bc he's like depressed all the time😭but for the sake of shits and gigs, ill humor y'all

let's say he hasn't seen you in a while and misses you dearly. he knew you were on a quest for a while, and he was very pent up... so what better way to release stress other than sparring! oh. not enough? time for another type spar 😈

if this were old baraka i'd say he has two 👁️ but since this version of tarkat is a disease let's say it made the skin around his wee like ribbed or something ya SO when you caught him he was in a straight up panic and apologizing profusely but once you calm him down and tell him you're glad he missed you so much, he's like oh shit...well help me out then...only if you want to!

a/n: i did it y'all FUCK. my bad for taking so long to release this i'm a perfectionist to a fault💀

[trevination]

hi I had a terrible adopted au thought and I figured id tell you here.

this one really depends on some timeline stuff, but if we imagine that dally joined the gang after pony was adopted, so he didn't know pony wasn't biologically related to the Curtis family and he just assumed that he was, this kinda works. bc I was thinking about the scene between darrel and dally and how dally says "im prolly more family to ponyboy than you are" and "you might share ponyboy's blood, but youre not no real brother". and imagine darrel hearing that. especially when he knows that he doesn't share pony's blood and he already feels so inadequate as a brother and now someone else is saying it so it must be true. after all, darrel and dally had the same amount of blood relation to pony. maybe he was right. maybe dally was more family than he was. maybe he wasn't a brother. but in that moment, he cant help but feel so upset, then it comes out as anger and he feels even worse. he hates himself for not being the family pony deserves because god knows that kid deserves the best there is. the blood comment just stings so deep and darrel doesn't know how to handle it. he knew that sometimes pony felt like he didn't belong in the family and he'd tried everything to show pony that he was wanted and loved and they needed him here, but it seemed to always get lost in translation. darrel had thought that maybe that was just pony being a teenager. maybe he just couldn't see it. maybe it was obvious to everyone else. but here dally is, telling him he isn't pony's brother. so maybe it wasn't obvious. maybe he was fucking up so badly that no one could even convince themself it was out of love. maybe he really wasn't a brother. because would a brother ever hurt the people he loved? the people he was supposed to protect? the people who deserved it the least?

sorry if this doesn't make sense im trying to write this out quickly in class lmao

UR RIGHT. THIS SI A TERRIBLE THOUGHT. OH MY FUCKING GOD.

just thinking about like liek. okayy. after pony's ran away and its just soda and darry in their silent house, soda quietly mentions that pony had always had doubts about his place in the family. how he never felt like he belonged. and soda tried to reassure him but it was just never enough. and darry can sting feel the sting of that slap on his hands and god. how could he have done that to his baby brother? did he even deserve to call pony his baby brother anymore??

that arguemnt with dally is actually so fucked up i feel SICK. ugh okay there's like. two different ways i can see this going. like if dally doesn't know that pony's adopted, him spatting out 'you might share blood but yo ain't no real brother' is AWFUL FUCKIN AWFULLLL. and darry fucking snaps. cause that's been his biggest fear this whole time. he's never done right by pony, he's never understood him like soda or his parents could, they always got on each other's nerves, but damn it if he doesn't love pony like something fierce. but he's always been inadequate. he's never been enough for his brothers. maybe, in the back of his mind, he starts thinking maybe pony shouldn't stay with him. he clearly can care for him right, he fucking slapped his kid brother and now look where there are. he's never enough. dally's comment stings so deep and darry feels so utterly hopeless. he was supposed to protect pony. when pony first came to them when darry was just 11, he promised his parents he'd look out for the kid. he failed his parents, he failed ponyboy, he's failed everyone. dally saying that, when darry ain't pony's blood... godddd that's so fucked up and so awful and dally's crazy but maybe he's right. hell, pony looks up to dal like crazy, maybe dally is more pony's brother than darry ever had been. and thus, he lashes out and he crumbles and thus starts throwing in the towel. if he ain't blood and he;s a failure of a brother, he don't deserve pony. or soda or the gang or anything.

theres also an alternate universe where dally does know pony's adopted.... maybe in the heat of the moment he spats that out cause sometimes its easy to forget they ain't blood. or maybe he says smth different, smth like 'you ain't pony's blood and you sure as hell ain't no real brother' hmmmmmm...... dally's mad and angry and he's doing his best to protect pony and johnny in the only way he knows how, running and hiding and looking out for himself and darry keeps fucking pushing him, acting like his ways are so awful and wrong. darry aint ever been in dally's situation, he's never been in the system like pony, he don't get it and he never will. I'm trying to run through the argument in my mind and like picture different way it could go... literally any way is so angsty and awful

and soda watching from the side lines, growing in horror and stress as they push and push and dally says that final remark and his heart shatters. he knows pony's doubts but he knows pony loves them like crazy and darry and soda love him just as fierce. no blood could break that. but he's watching his family fall apart in front of his eyes and he just cant stop itcause both his brothers are hurting so damn much they cant see the truth-- that nothing can ever tear them apart and no blood or arguments or nothing can change the fact they're real brothers :(

It actually takes you some time to reveal this hidden side of Tanjiro. Tanjiro rarely loses his temper. He never snaps at you, or say hurtful things during arguments. So, the first time you crack the whole "patient and compassionate" persona of his, it really is something unexpected.

You watch as his eyes lost their warmth, replaced with cold stares and an aloof expression.

He will forcefully drag you to another room, preferably where people won't be able see or hear what he's about to do to you... but honestly, it doesn't matter if there isn't any private place nearby. As long as it's secluded enough, he will do it.

Tanjiro likes to start with some good spankings. Fifteen, twenty times should be enough and you have to keep counting each and every one of it.

Considering how ripped Tanjiro is, you'll start whining after eight to ten spanks. It hurts like hell, duh.

He doesn't care, though.

"You wanna act like a bitch, then I'll treat you like one. Now, shut up and keep counting."

Tanjiro can be mean when he's spanking the shit out of you, but when you're finished he will pull you up and kiss you sweetly. As if he hasn't just hit your ass cheeks until they turn red.

"You did so well baby, did so well," Tanjiro peppers your face with kisses. "Please don't say/do something like that again, okay? Alright, let's go, now. I'll help you walk, yeah? Come on, my love..."

If the two of you are out with other people, or if you invite people over then it ends right there. Spanking is Tanjiro's go-to option because it's quick and easy.

If it's only the two of you around, though... good luck lmao

He'll fuck your throat right after the spanking. His fingers grip your hair so hard like his life depends on it.

"Take it, (Y/N). Let's see what else your pretty little mouth can do..."

He might cum inside your mouth or he'll spurt it out all over your face. He'll admire your fucked-out expression covered with his cum like a piece of art.

Thanks to his sense of smell, he notices how aroused you are. After all, you haven't gotten your release.

Tanjiro will pick you up and bring you to your bed. He'll tie your wrists (he likes to do it with his own belt) above your head before grabbing one of his many precious collections of vibrator.

I think Tanjiro likes vibrator because it's just so easy to use, so practical, and not to mention it really elevates the whole experience? Get yourself a man like Tanjiro tbh

He fingers your cunt first even though you don't really need it, considering how wet you are. He still does it though, because he loves seeing you squirm around, a moaning mess.

Then he'll stick the vibrator right inside your pussy, putting it on its highest setting. He sticks it deep so you can actually feel its vibration right on your g-spot.

"I'll be right back, baby." He ignores your whines and pleas, leaving the room to get a glass of water or something.

Sometimes he comes back and doesn't do anything, just sit on the corner of the room, watching you crumble. Some other time, he doesn't come back until you're almost passed out after you came like, two or three times.

He will only take the vibrator out when he thinks you've had enough. Then, he will kiss you again (or at least he tries to, because at that point your mind has turned into a mush and you can't really say or do anything).

"(Y/N), love, are you alright? Do you want me to clean you up and we can cuddle right after?"

Most of the time you will shake your head and mumble, "No, I wanna..." You don't have to say the full sentence, Tanjiro understands what you mean.

Clearly, you're really overstimulated but you know the good part hasn't even began just yet.

Tanjiro will untie your wrists before slowly and gently positions you in a mating press. He slips his hard dick into your pussy and stays put, waiting for you to adjust.

He knows he can start when you weakly wrap your arms on his shoulders, teary eyes looking up at him, lips quivers as you beg him to move.

You might be overstimulated, but you love how good Tanjiro makes you feel. His thrusts are slow yet so deep, making you feel so full.

Sometimes Tanjiro will pin your wrists above your head with one of his hand while the other wraps itself around your neck, or slaps you across your face.

"Look at you, baby. Looking so dumb, letting me use you as my fuck toy like this. You love this cock, don't you? Can't live without it, huh? Ssshh I know, I know... I got you... Take it all, baby, take it all..."

Beg him to breed you and he will lose his mind.

Just pussy drunk Tanjiro, lazily thrusting into your pussy and spilling his seeds deep inside you.

It's so addicting, you find yourself pushing his limits more often. Of course Tanjiro sees right through you and doesn't really give you what you want often. When he does, though... well, you better not have anything else planned for the next day.

Overall, five ten stars for Tanjiro. Gives you really good aftercare as well. How can you not love this man tbh...

[ghostly-bat]

What makes me think sometimes is that I cant admit out loud that I like Damian because all they think is; "You're 18, why do u like a 16-year old"? And I really do not wanna talk about the fact that I've liked him since I was a kid but only started reading fics about him when I was 17

Like, excuse you, he was older than me at some point when I was younger, am I not allowed to still like him now???

Idk, just wanted to get this off my chest and I honestly like lurking in your asks, Ghostly lmao

— 🫐

Honestly who cares what they think, cus it's a character, you like them because of the character they are, their traits, how they think, how they act. You can find a character interesting no matter how old they are. Whoever these people are they sound lame, like it ain't that deep lol

A majority of my favorite characters are younger than me and most of them used to be older than me but to this day they never stopped being my favorite characters.

Katsuki Bakugo - My Hero Academia younger than me

Inosuke Hashibira - Demon Slayer younger than me

Shinobu Kocho - Demon Slayer younger than me

Rin Okumura - Blue Exorcist younger than me, used to be older than me!

Karma Akabane - Assassination Classroom younger than, he's a little shit and I love him for that

A favorite character is literally who you just find the most interesting or entertaining age doesn't matter unless you're creepy about it

I love Damian I found him the most interesting out of all the Robin's, I simply just thought he was cool—he still is. When I found out he was into anime he became more of my favorite character lol. My reasons for liking him really aren't that deep 😅 but they don’t have to be.

He's a very interesting character and his character development is great. He's just a neat kid 😌

[davekat-sucks]

was it ever implied that rosedave/daverose/dersecest was going to happen at one point? I swear when I first read homestuck I was shipping them hard lol bc I thought it was the natural progression of their connection?? and then got spoiled online that they were siblings :/

I mean, it’s not like I don’t ship it anymore (any Rose ship within the family is good to me lol), but having to explain to someone that rosedave is somewhat okay to ship bc they didn’t GROW UP AS SIBLINGS is so tiring.

oh and then I remember finding out about Roxy and Dirk, and was like oh holy shit I can ship them if it’s not acceptable to ship dersecest!….. oh Dirk canonically (despite not being labelled as explicitly gay, even tho the fandom thinks that) doesn’t like her like *that*.

Andrew Hussie count your days. it’s been 7-8 years since this happened and I’m still so fucking pissed lmao. sry for the rant :(

Dersecest did happen, or at least, implied to have been a thing by Andrew Hussie in the book commentaries. Only in the doomed timeline that Dave (who would become) Davesprite, is said to have fucked with Rose. Even after they were confirmed siblings, it didn't stop shippers from pairing them together. As well as the fact sometimes they would make incest comments. Like Dave thinking Rose's mom was hot and how he thought Jane was hot too for a grandma. It's fiction. Shit ain't real. Same thing for Dirk and Roxy. Roxy having an interest in Jane's dad means Strilondes have a deep rooted incest complex. Epilogues and HS2/Beyond Canon basically cements it with Dirk and Rose being a couple too. Plus, DirkRoxy as a ship is back on the table if only because the fandom are making both or Roxy trans despite being siblings. Even said DirkRoxy ship is liked among the members of HICU (Homestuck Independent Creative Union), who are working on Beyond Canon. So think of that what you will if it will that.

When the game goes too far (Professor/Vic Chaos)

made a new one because sometimes inspiration is funny

Butters, after already having just Too Much on his plate, finds out his friends are setting up another game vis-a-vis FBW but don't want him to join in, trying to keep him from finding out, and it's just the cherry on the cake that drives him off the deep end, giving Vic a chance to slither on in.

He does have an ultimate goal here outside the game, and I must say, it is very Vic-coded lmao. He'd probably be most interested in Toolshed to help him keep the game going for long enough, but I'm open to just about any canon character that'd be playing!

It shouldn't really have bothered him. Really, in the grand scheme of things, finding out your friends don't want you to join in a game you used to play together as kids just really wasn't a Big Deal™. But the rejection and disregard that came from it absolutely was. He'd been battered and bruised and on shaky ground for a long time now, with seemingly not a single one of the people who care about him noticing, and this was the fist through the wall of his mental fortitude. They didn't want Professor Chaos to take part in their little game this time?

What a shame.

-------

Mosquito was their new villain? Clyde? He was barely worth anything as a hero, and they're putting him in charge of setting up a worthwhile scheme to keep their game going? Idiots. This was who they were replacing him with, huh? Sure. Let Mosquito set up his pieces. Chaos had his own game to prepare.

------

Mosquito's monologuing skills weren't terrible, he has to admit, but the nasal drone made it hard to know just what he was saying half the time. Poor fool just didn't know how to project. Chaos watches in silence, tucked away undetected, as he gives his little speech to the camera, the clustered heroes on the screen looking suitably determined to play. It's charming, like a parent watching a toddler try and fail to do their job. Adorable.

Truthfully, Chaos doesn't even know what the supposed villain had in mind; he already knew Mosquito's plans would be put on hold once his own ideas got rolling, and sure enough, just as he catches that tone in Mosquito's voice indicating he's about to put things to action, Chaos stands and makes his presence known. He steps into frame, arms spread in a welcoming gesture, and while he receives a suitably afraid glance from Mosquito, he can hear the scoff from the other end of their video call. 'Alright, which one of you jagoffs told Butters?'

The voice makes him grin, just a flash of teeth, before he cuts in. "Aw, don't be like that, Eric," he coos, clasping gloved hands in front of himself in a demure parody. "Nuh-no one spilled the beans'r nothin', I just overheard. N' I figgerd I could probably come in and give yer new supervillain a hand! A gift!"

Chaos kicks aside a large but empty crate in the shed Mosquito was using for his 'lair', revealing a large window that looked out into a mesh cage. The subtle buzzing that could have easily been mistaken as electricity flashing through wires is shown to be thousands, if not millions of mosquitoes, hovering over a large pool of stagnant water where they'd obviously been breeding on a massive scale. Most of them kept close to the top of the cage, where heating pads covered sausage casings full of animal blood to keep them alive and sated.

"Thematically, appropriate, I know. You're welcome," he enthuses toward Mosquito. "But that ain't all! Oh no, whuh-where's the fun in that? Naw, lookee here-" Chaos slips a test tube out of his pocket, giving it a careful little shake so as not to damage the delicate insect within.

"Took me a minute ta get this lovely little lady, but boy was she worth every penny. Didja know there's still no effective vaccine for the Zika virus? Ain't that somethin'?" He pulls the stopper from the tube and shoves the opening through a little flap beneath the window, and the insect inside floats lazily upward to join the rest in feeding.

"One in a million, those aren't bad odds at all, huh?" Chaos shoves at a lever and the top of the mesh cage opens up. A swarm of mosquitoes take to the air, and Butters turns back to the camera with a wide grin. "Hope you fellas stocked up on yer bug spray!"

[mcalhenwrites]

I hope some people will look forward to Rascal's publication. I am excited about the story! It's somewhat long, though, so I'm fearful of the cost of printing and how much higher I will have to sell it compared to Geckos, Automata. But the cover is going to be done once I have the money saved up for it, and even if it's a loss financially, at least I tried. I keep doing my best. I will keep doing my best moving forward, even if I falter sometimes. I'm not giving up this dream. I can't really afford to, in the long run, because of disabilities and my chronic health issues making it difficult for me to even work 2 days a week sometimes. (And I might be working another job - same company but different location/role - that adds an evening of work onto my week. Kind of excited about it, though, the sad part of being super disabled and not having a car right now to travel so far everyday to work is that I generally enjoy my job and like the people I work with.) So yeah, please be patient with me if you're looking forward to my published work. If you're not, maybe... maybe this blog isn't for you? I'm confused if you're still here but hate what I write/read, this is a writing blog lmao, it has always been my creation blog for crafts and writing and art. It slipped into fandom a little bit (mixed in with the rest), but... like... I don't want to crochet. So if you're here for that, I actually will say this rudely but fuck off, lol, and if you're here for fandom... hun, you're mixed up, this ain't the place. XD (I don't have a current active fandom, even my deep-seated love of KH is on hold bc Missing Link is owning up to its name and MISSING) Really excited about editing Rascal and adding more Frey and plot to what is 90% just kink between two adorable consenting adults. ;D

15,206

First ( a 530 word Shikamaru/Neji Naruto fic I wrote when I was like 19 loll )

Your Sun it Shines ( my first DATV Emmrook fic )

As Food to Life ( Another Emmrich POV emmrook fic where Emmrich gets carried away with Relic's legs. I dunno, man. )

What fandoms do you write for?

Dragon Age: The Veilguard basically exclusively. This game awakened something in me.

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I try to!! I love getting comments. It still baffles me that anyone would read my self-indulgent oc shipping nonsense so the fact that anyone would and then care enough to leave me a comment is like. It's magic I dunno. I'm still getting used to it though so sometimes I have to spend like a week(or more oh god) reading the same comment over and over again before I can formulate a reply that sounds like something an actual human person would say 😬

What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I think all of my fics have hopeful at least endings lmao. I'm a coward.

What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I'm gonna go with To Catch a Thief because while all my fics end kind of abruptly and hopefully, the time skip at the end from traumatized urchin Relic to boisterous Lord of Fortune Relic makes me happy lol.

Do you get hate on fics?

not yet.

Do you write smut?

Not.....Yet... 😬

Do you write crossovers?

I haven't so far.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I'm aware of. I'd be awfully surprised.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Nope.

Have you ever cowritten a fic before?

Not yet but I think I'd like to.

What’s your all time favourite ship?

All Time?? That's a hard question they kind of come and go lol. But right now I'm deep, deep in my emmrook phase.

What’s the wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

I have a wip in my folder rn with the working title Bellara Writes Emmlic that I would LOVE to do something with lol. It's exactly what it says on the tin but I just can't... get my brain in the zone for it.

What are your writing strengths?

I've been told that my style lends itself well to writing emotion, and that I do a good emotional spiral lol. Does that count?

What are your writing weaknesses?

Dialogue. Banter. I'm AWFUL at it. Also fic titles. godawful.

Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in a fic?

I don't even wanna write it in my own language.... I dunno I think there's a time and place for it and a way to do it right but google translate ain't it.

First fandom you wrote for?

Naruto, technically.

Favourite fic you’ve ever written?

It's my least popular but To Catch a Thief has a really special place in my heart. It's got Isabela POV and Relic backstory. I really catered to myself in that one.

thank you again for the tag! I've never really checked my stats before so that was interesting lol.

I dunno which of my writer moots have done this and which haven't so I'm gonna leave this open for anyone who wants to. Go nuts. You can say I tagged you in it, cause I wanna see!

Questions for Writers

I was tagged by @corpocyborg! Thank you, bb!! ♡

Last book I read: I still haven't finished There's No Such Thing as an Easy Job Kikuko Tsumura I started back in January, lmao. Not for any reason other than I just haven't been in the right headspace to sit down and read for the past few months--What I have read of it is great, so hopefully, I can make the time to pick it up again.

Greatest literary inspirations: I like the female protags in Karin Slaughter novels, and I love Tanya Huff's Torin Kerr from her Confederation series--I'm sure they've inspired me on some level. Oh, and Phedre from Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel books, too, although it's been ages since I read those. But I think most of my inspiration actually comes from other forms of media. I love the action babes of the late 90s/early 00s: Lara Croft is the number one inspo here, and pretty much all of Michael Turner's comic girls but especially Sara from Witchblade. And I think Better Call Saul is easily one of the best-written shows ever made--That's one I always go back to when I feel like I need to refill the inspo well.

Things in my current fandoms I want to read but I don't want to write: I have a confession: I usually only read a ton of fic when I first get into a fandom and I can't get enough and I just want to soak it all up, but after a certain point, I just don't have a lot of headspace for other people's stories. 😬 I feel bad about it sometimes, and it's not like I never read anything after that point, but 90% of the time, what I wanna write is what I wanna read. It's kind of a closed loop, I guess.

Things in my current fandoms I want to write but I think nobody would be interested in them but me: Well, I'm not at all deterred by being the only person interested in something I write, haha. One of my favorite one-shots I've ever written is between my Cousland and Hawke meeting briefly at Ostagar, and it's probably my least popular fic on AO3 by a big margin. But I do like deep-diving into my own OCs, and it generally is harder to get an audience for fic that doesn't have canon characters. Ain't gonna stop me, though!

You can recognize my writing by: Lots of pining and banter; obvious thesaurus abuse

My most controversial take (current fandom): Yeah, no, not gonna be sharing my actual most controversial takes, lmao.

But I do also love the Devil ending! I don't think there's one objectively "best" ending--What's good for one V isn't necessarily good for another--But for my Valerie, it suited her story the best. I love the poetry of her going back to Arasaka after getting fired by them, I love storming Arasaka Tower with Goro, I love the conflict with Johnny, I love making Goro confront how fucked up the Arasakas are, I love the possibilities of Mikoshi--The only way it would have been better for me is if this nixed idea had actually been put into action.

And I wish we could roleplay a V that is actually more "pro"-corpo in the game, especially if we had the corpo lifepath. Sticking it to the man is sexy and all, but I just love delving into characters that align themselves with shitty institutions and exploring different motivations (I personally like cynical pragmatism/self-preservation and delusional idealism) that lead a person there.

Top three favorite tropes: 1) Rivals to friends to lovers 2) Mutual pining 3) Forced proximity

What’s your current writing mood (10 – super motivated and churning out words like crazy, 0 – in a complete rut): Like, 0.5, lmao. I've been rereading and organizing my WIPS, so there's some effort being put in there, but I'm very much in one of my "ummmm, how do I even write fiction?" phases.

Share a random frustration: I have ZERO discipline when it comes to writing. I need to be in a fully feral, totally isolated from distractions place or I just can't get shit done. When I'm in the zone, I'm in the fuckin' zone, but I get like 3 months of that every 5 years, lmao.

Tagging (with no pressure, as always) @ur-friendly-nbhd-cardassian, @dread-red-queen, @vorchagirl, and @aceghosts <333
