Light [FSA Link] for my Zelda AU stuff

(info bellow cut)

Light is part of a Zelda AU that is kinda tied together with my other Zelda AU stuff. The AU involves multiple Links, Zeldas and others from across the timelines in a more modern day setting, reincarnated but with their past life's memories. Light is based on the FSA Manga. The chaos caused by the 4 Links big personalities in the FSA manga is probably what drew me in most when I was younger, I always felt kinda sad they had to become one again even though it is objectively for the best... so I made an AU where it's terrible for them-! ...well it's not really terrible, but it's rocky at the start anyway~ ÒwÓ Originally Green was meant to be the main personality of the AU, with the 4s minds separating and struggling to deal with each other sharing a body but I also had an idea floating around for a 5th link made up of whatever personality traits were left over after the split. Traits deemed unfit for a hero to have (mostly apathy or fear). I eventually decided to just merged it with the AU. Due to Lights more negative traits, the AU shifted to the 5 becoming a sort of system dealing with each others struggles day to day and helping each other with their respective strengths and weaknesses. e.g. Green covering for Light/Vio being unsocial or Red boosting everyones morale

AU is very much underdeveloped, especially compared to my Minish Cap AU but I love FSA so I might make art for it here and there. This was mostly to get it out of my head www

I will tag stuff I post for this AU as FSAFL [Four Swords Adventures: Fractured Light]

hi sorry for my English, but can I ask the boys to overblot with a s/o who likes to mark their face with lipstick marks please

lipstick marks; overblot boysss

aaaaa i love this idea so much, thank you 😭😭

this is perfect because i have an obsession with lipstick<3

riddle rosehearts

it doesn't matter how long you two have been together he still gets so flushed after any kiss from you. you have such an effect on him, it's crazy. so, he doesn't even notice the lipstick stains left on him- he only learned when he heard ace snickering about something and commenting on his left cheek.

he was so flustered by that and learned to always check his face after you kiss him, he has a status to keep up as dorm leader!! he doesn't want to be improper or anything...or hear all the teasing from the others. but he does secretly enjoy it that you love to give them to him.

whenever you pepper his faces with kisses and he has to use something like a handkerchief to rub it off, he'll be all red in the face and mutter something like "oh dear..." under his breath as he worriedly goes to a mirror. but you've sworn you've caught him smiling a little, on multiple occasions.

leona kingscholar

when you come up to him and press kisses on his face whenever he’s asleep and trying to nap- he’ll groan tiredly and tell you not too because he’s too tired to wipe off all your “damn lipstick” right now. (let’s be REAL leona) you usually see a small smirk on his face with his eyes closed though. leona will seem even irritated if you'd stop.

he’ll roll his eyes when he wipes his lips with the back of his hand and sees it stained with the color of your lips and pull you back in for another. by the end of it his lips are smudged around with the shade of yours. its definitely a sight to see if it's a pinkish color.

leona doesn’t actually really care, I mean a lot like the others he’ll make sure to get it off before going out or something… though there may have been a few times he’s forgotten or missed it because he is usually half-asleep when you’re smooching him.

azul ashengrotto

every time you kiss and smooch him, he's so smitten, his brain cant function and he can't think of really anything or anyone else. in the privacy of his office are his favorite moments when you come to check on him and give him affection. this man is putty in your hands idc!!

so needless to say, the first time this happened to him- he doesn't even notice, like riddle. he'll be in such a dreamy mood and state while he does his paperwork. when jade comes to him about something, he immediately covers his mouth with his gloved hand trying to hide the amusement he clearly is feeling when seeing azul like that. he doesn't even tell him because he thinks its funny, jade only said "ah i didnt notice (name) was here earlier..."

azul was confused but brushed it off because he deemed this behavior normal from the twins. azul only learned the hard way when he heard floyd who couldn't keep it to himself.

every time you kiss him azul tries to remember to, but once again he's stuck on thinking about you. when he looks at himself in the mirror to wipe it off, he's got such a stupid grin on his face. his favorite spot to see where its left is right under his mouth where his beauty mark is.

jamil viper

he feels the lipstick left on his face usually and places his fingers against it and has the smuggest smile... he loves it honestly. within the privacy of him in you, when he feels it smudged and left on his face it makes him weak. he pretty much doesn't forget to rub it off still, but sometimes you may see the reminiscent color left on his face.

he oddly enjoys putting your lipstick on for you, jamil would do it for you if you ask him. he likes choosing his favorite colors that you have to put on you. i mean, there's also the perk of him getting kissed as a thanks so he's not complaining.

if you did it out in public, well he will let out a small huff and discreetly tries to wipe it off hoping no other dormmates or god forbid kalim saw him with it, he'll only tease him with mushy things about how cute him and you are together. he pretends like he doesn't like them, so it is rather funny to see. he just doesn't want to appear like that in front of others.

vil schoenheit

he literally does the same thing to you ALL the time. only he chuckles and coos while rubbing it off of your face gently. whenever you two are done kissing both of your faces are covered in each other's lipstick. he personally really likes the look of you like that.

he usually looks into his compact mirror from his uniform, he laughs saying something like "oh my, look at what you've done, dear." like he just didn't leave the same exact thing on your face as well.

vil 100% buys you more and more lipstick... like literally pick what you want. he'll give you the best and prettiest brands, he loves seeing you in them anyway. he'll be amused and point out its a brand he bought for you as he wipes it off his cheek carefully. he also knows exactly what colors would suit and compliment you the best.

idia shroud

idia was a huge ball of nerves when it came to kissing you at first, he's had zero experience, and he feels insecure about his lips- as they're chapped and scarred a bit from him biting his lips out of anxiety. you got him some vaseline and flavored lip balm for him, but he only likes it when you put it on his lips for him.

the tips of his hair always gets all pink, like his groovy card in the ghost marriage event- when you kiss him, and he sees the lipstick stains imprinted on his skin. he is flustered beyond belief, but he always craves more from you- once you start, he cannot seem to get enough of you. idia gives you this toothy grin and wipes them off with the sleeve of his jacket but whenever you get red lipstick on him, and he does that it just ends up looking like blush on his pale skin.

love love loves any flavored ones like lip gloss you use that taste sweet. definitely use them because it'll always work on idia. you literally make this man dizzy and lightheaded with your lips- he doesn't seem to care about the lipstick getting on him one bit when it's the two of you. he'll only feel embarrassed if you give him a small one if you're out and cover his face nervously.

malleus draconia

malleus kisses you so much that his own lips turn the color of your lipstick. not only does it attack his whole face, but you've got his lips in that shade too, he only notices when you point it out and laugh. he'll smile and hum, only to lean in for more from you.

its funny because if you're trying to give him a kiss- with your height difference you'd end up getting a stain on his neck- at best. he thinks it's amusing as he chuckles. he'll give you a real kiss then. malleus is honestly lowkey proud to have them on him, he sees it as a sign of your affection and love from you so why wouldn't he like it? he has this dumb smirk on his face when you've got the darkest shade and you kiss him, it's the most visible on him of course.

like vil, he'll happily supply you with however many you want. malleus loves seeing you wear lipstick, it's really his favorite thing. but as i've mentioned he prefers dark shades on you the best out of them all, for sure.

[purinfelix]

hiii i have a request🙈 could you do a pedri one where the reader has curly hair but she always straightens her hair but one day pedri see’s her with her natural hair and he just obsesses over it? i love your writing btw🤍

ᯓ ᡣ𐭩

a/n: AAAAA sorry it took me forever to write this - it's such a cute idea and i might've had to consult one of my curly-haired friends on it hehe hope u enjoy anon <333

"Hey, babe?" The familiar sound of your boyfriend's voice echoes through your apartment after he returns from his trip to get the two of you takeout for dinner.

"In here," you call out, though you're mostly preoccupied with finishing up the shower you began not long after he left. Slipping on your clothes and throwing your towel over your shoulder you pad your way out of the bathroom to find him.

When you do, he's busy setting down the plastic bags on your dining table but the minute he turns to see you he almost drops them. Furrowing your brows in confusion, you let out a soft chuckle and watched Pedri's expression mould into one of curiosity and a sort of enchantment. He takes a couple steps towards you and you're about to ask if something's wrong until one of his fingers finds its way around a still-wet ringlet of your hair.

You let out a shy sigh of realisation - it hadn't been that long since the two of you had started dating and in that time it had been a habit for you to always straighten your hair. But tonight, with your head clouded with the excitement of spending a night in with him, it must've slipped your mind. You watch as Pedri silently takes strands of your hair between his fingers, his lips parted in a sort of stupor.

"It's a lot shorter like this," he says, breaking the silence, and you're pleasantly surprised by how observant he is.

"Yeah," you laugh softly before tentatively asking, "do you like it?"

There's a beat of silence, but you soon realise it's only because he's busy playing with your curls, pulling on them gently and watching them spring back. "Are you kidding? It's beautiful," he finally says, voice barely above a breathless whisper, "you're beautiful."

That's all it takes for your cheeks to start heating up and as soon as Pedri notices he can't help but join you in smiling shyly. His hand moves swiftly to tuck some of your hair behind your ear to make way for him to press a soft kiss to your temple.

TAEHYUN’S VEINS AAAAA IMAGINE HIM CHOKING READER WHEN FUCKING HER AND THEY SUCK ON HIS THUMB 😭😭😭😭

good ideaaaa (sorry this is so late!!)

dom!taehyun, sub!reader, afab reader, choking, slight mention of spit and idk what else :)

Scenario 1:

Taehyun fucking you from behind while you whine into the sheets as he grips at your pretty waist. “Tyunnie too m-much” you whined but Taehyun just told you to shut your pretty mouth before he fucks it but of course you dont listen! You’re a brat ffs so you just whine and moan louder at how its too much, too big, fuck ‘m gonna cum! Please let me cum tyunnie. He gets so pissed off with you being loud he decides to just wrap his hand around your dainty throat and shoves his thumb into your mouth and presses his thumb on your tongue making spit dribble onto the sheets below you

scenario 2:

Taehyun has you on your back while he drills into your dripping pussy so so so good that you cant help but throw your head back into the sheets and taehyun takes this opportunity like hes never gonna have it again (ofc he is) and his hand flys to your throat for the first time and your eyes look up at confused on why hes choking you. But then all the memories of you two yapping when you were high about your kinks come back and you remember him asking you “do you like being choked?” And now you knew why he was doing it.. next thing you knew he was making you suck on his thumb but the most you could do was stare at his veins popping out of his arm and his head being tipped back as he jackhammered into you. “Fucking suck on my thumb you pathetic brat” that made you comply quickly

im so sorry this is rushed but i hope you like it❤️❤️

HEAR ME OUT SINCE ITS CHILDES BDAY TODAY RIGHT

What if we spend the entire day with him and then when we come home, we give him another surprise *wink wink* (pls tell me yk what i mean 😭😭 i dont know how to say these things withoit feeling awkward)

NS!FW. 18+ ONLY

AAAAA I’M SO SORRY THIS IS LATE!!! I’VE BEEN HIBERNATING!!!

JUST LIKE PRETEND IT’S STILL HIS BIRTHDAY DHXJHCIXJD

My fingers went nYoooooom! Also don’t feel awkward! I hear you and I shall feed you the crumbs of my brain basement

At least I hope this is what you mean otherwise I’m so sorry for your eyeballs-

warnings: ns!fw, Oral spice, lots of spicy words (I went all in for this one aaAAA), swearing, gn!reader, not proof-read.

Characters: Tartaglia (Childe is the worst name for spice istfggggg)

It had been a busy week preparing for the big day.

You could of been doing commissions, relaxing with friends, enjoying the beach and the warm summer sea, but no-

You had been practically ripping your hair out planning for you boyfriends birthday.

Tartaglia was a very… interesting character-

You knew he’d love whatever you got him but the thing is, nothing felt special.

He had the ability to buy anything he wanted, whenever he wanted. So trying to find something that would impress the ginger was becoming more challenging than his impromptu sparring “dates”.

That was until you caught sight of a small, very discreet looking stall hidden behind some crates near Liyue’s harbour that sold silk clothing that definitely wasn’t intended to stay on for long.

And so began your special birthday surprise~

“There’s my birthday boy!”

Running over to Tartaglia, you flung your arms tight around his waist.

The day In question had finally arrived and so had your mildly insane but lovable boyfriend.

“And there’s my favourite comrade! Didn’t miss me too much now did you?”

Smiling wildly, you rolled your eyes at him before the two of you started catching up on what he had been doing the past few days that he was away.

As a few minutes turned into hours, you both talked and walked around Liyue, visiting your favourite spots and giving him a giant whale plushie that you had spent the last few days seeing together, along with a extremely romantic dinner at the Liuli Pavilion.

When I say romantic I mean romantic-

The table was set with candles and silk flower petals, and not a chopstick to be seen, much to the gingers relief.

“You know, you’ve really impressed me this time. I don’t think I could of asked for a better birthday even if I tried”

“Good thing it’s not over then~”

“Not over? Have my irresistible charms finally decided to accept that sparring challenge you’ve been avoiding~”

Rolling your eyes, you promptly paid the bill before you decide to change your mind about the entire plan.

“No, you know I wouldn’t walk out of that alive. Now just shush and follow me”

Taking his hand, you eagerly pull him along in the direction to your home, not paying attention to the endless pestering of your boyfriend who’s curiosity was doing more than struggling to stay contained.

“Is it a surprise party?? Oh wait, did you kidnap someone for me!? Babe you’re so swe-”

“SHH! No I didn’t kidnap anyone and you should know not to say stuff like that while outside!”

Shaking your head in frustration, you finally reached your door.

Quickly unlocking it, you pulled Tartaglia in with a small grunt before closing it behind you.

“Alright, stay right there. I’ll be back now- and don’t get into trouble!”

“Huh? Wait- where are you going?”

With a giggle, you gave him a kiss on his cheek before running to your bedroom and closing the door.

Laying out on your bed was the outfit you got earlier that week.

Without hesitation, you pulled your clothes off and threw them to the floor, quickly putting on the outfit, albeit with some mild confusion to how it went on.

It was made from a delicate silk, framed with lace and ribbons that hung down your body, perfectly framing your figure.

Giving yourself a quick look over in the mirror, you took a deep breath and opened the door, peeking outside just incase your boyfriend was waiting outside.

Once you found the coast clear, you took a step out as started walking to the living room where you could hear him humming while obviously nosing around your belongings.

“Finally. you were taking foreve…r-”

Dropping a book he had been flipping through while waiting for you, Tartaglia’s expression shifted from shocked to embarrassed, then to a dangerously sly grin as the ginger took in your appearance.

“We’ll, well, well~ is it just the weather or did the room suddenly get extremely hotter”

Instinctively shrugging off his attempts at flirting, you took a step closer; placing your hand on his chest you pushed him down to the couch with a smug grin before sliding down between his legs.

“W-wow, really… really not wasting any time today, are we comrade~”

“I don’t want to keep the birthday boy waiting now, do I~”

With a purr in your voice, you began rubbing against his crotch that was already straining from his… impatience~

Working your hands against the growing tent in his pants, your fingers found their way the button before releasing his erection causing a quiet groan from the ginger who was now watching your every move like it was the most important thing he’d ever seen.

“So hard already? Just for me~?”

Grinning even more as you can’t help a sense of pride rush through your body, you placed soft kisses along his tip, moving down his shaft all the way to his balls before repeating the process, refusing to break eye contact with him.

Spending a few more minutes enjoying watching your boyfriend start to squirm and get impatient under your touch as your hand slowly pumped up and down his shaft, pulling out soft grunts of pleasure from him as you do.

Finally deciding that you’ve teased him enough you start to let your mouth do the work for you.

Still locking eyes with him, you rub his tip against your lips, savouring the taste of his pre already forming a pearl.

With one swift motion you slide his length inside your mouth, making Tartaglia let out a sharp moan as he threw his head back in pleasure.

“O-oh fuck… babe that’s… Ngh~”

You be lying if you did admit that it even shocked you a little, how well you took him all in first try.

Hearing him whimper and moan every time you bob your head up and down his length, enjoying his slightly salty taste.

“Archons, babe… keep going just like that~”

Feeling his hips start to buck into your mouth, pushing his length even further down, making you gag a little bit still not discouraging you from reaching your goal.

“Oh fUuck- babe I’m going to cum…~”

Without any time to brace yourself, you felt his fingers grip tightly onto your hair as he thrust his hips harder, causing you to gag even more and grip onto his thighs for support before he finally releasing his load.

“Holy fuck yes~!”

Pulling back to admire his breathless, shaking state, a trail of white dripping down your chin-

You can’t help but feel a little more excitement for the rest of the night as you pull out a pair of handcuffs from the draw next to the couch.

“I hope you’re not too tired just yet, I’ve got a lot more in store for you yet~”

This was so bad, I’m so sorry hdicufif.

I’m back into doing requests as normal now that’s I’m pretty much completely recovered eeeeee I’ve missed it so much T-T

[yoriichi1shusband]

=[Yoriichi current Hashira Au]=

This is basically how I think he'd interact with my favorite Hashira!

(Doodles made by me! if I didn't do headcanons/doodles of one of your favorites then sorry : ((

⋆˚✿˖°≽^• ˕Kanroji: ꪆꪆꪆৎ

--------------

She'd talk his ear off for sure, though I don't think he'd mind!

She probably would remind him of his wife : (

She'd make him try a bunch of different foods for sure,

Would be flabbergasted to find out that Yoriichi "doesn't have a favorite food"

Its unacceptable-

Mitsuri would talk to him about the nice things Obanai has done for sure-

Yoriichi would be confused to why they are not together already-

They'd be besties <3

𓆝 ��°‧🫧⋆.ೃ࿔*:･Tomioka: ꪆꪆꪆ꩜

Their meeting would be awkward-

It'd take a while for them to introduce themselves for sure,

But once they do they would be pretty close!

Expect a lot of quiet walks and unspoken words (How relaxing!)

Not anything super exciting honestly-

Giyuu would appreciate the silence however! He also finds it nice that Yoriichi doesn't think bad of him!

Yoriichi would probably eat near Giyuu occasionally so he's not always alone-

They respect each other as well, MY SILLIES AAAAA

𓆙•｡ৎ ˚⋅𓆙࿔*:Iguro:ꪆꪆꪆ𓆓

Iguro would probably hate him- 😭

He'd start picking on Yoriichi at the start.

That is until he sees him in battle-

He's now too scared to actually do anything, so he simply glares at him from a distance.

Doesn't like how nice he is to Kanroji but as long as she's happy <3

He does respect Yoriichi's strength plus how calming his aura is <3

༄｡༉‧₊˚.࿔✇Shinazugawa:ꪆꪆꪆ.ೃ

Sanemi would respect him a lot, he probably would find Yoriichi calming,

He didn't like him at first because he was closed off like Giyuu,

But he surprisingly likes him more than Giyuu (Poor Tomioka-)

If Yoriichi has Ohagis with his lunch he would totally give Sanemi some upon finding out that Sanemi likes them!

Sanemi would be cautious around him for sure,-

They wouldn't talk a lot!

Unless they are bonding over their losses/traumatic experiences,

How romantic <3 (I'm joking 😭)

ᯓᡣ𐭩ྀིྀིྀHimeJima:ꪆꪆꪆִֶָ𓂃 ִֶ࣪˖ ִֶָ

They respect each other a lot of course,

Gyomei was deeply saddened upon hearing what Yoriichi has been going through!

Always invites Yoriichi to pray or meditate with him!

They often play flutes together

Although Yoriichi's is a tad bit off tuned-

They get along since they have a lot in common!

And they both can see in the transparent world (I think Gyomei can? I am a little rusty on knowledge about him)

They often partake in tea parties I'm sure-

I LOVE GYOMEI RAAAA

Here:

A Cursed Birthday

I woke up this morning thinking all was well, and it was just another ordinary day, for me, anyway. But no. I don't even get one birthday of peace. It's always something every year. I mean, last year,  a bunch of rats ate the cake. The year before that, my hamster, Charles,  the magnificent, committed suicide.  And this year, I get sucked into a magical portal. Yay.

It was normal. Nothing happened the entire day, and I was sceptic, to be honest. But no. The one thing that couldn't have happened (due to its... well. Impossibleness) just had to happen. Thanks a lot, God. I swear I'm cursed or something.

It was around 8 pm by the time I finally let my guard down about my evil-birthday curse. I was walking my amazing dog, Ruby. She is this adorable black and white pitbull that puts any and all other dogs to shame. So naturally, I was showing her off... at 8pm, in winter. In my defence, I'm definitely not the smartest person I know. I mean, what lunatic would be out at 8 pm in winter, in the UK? Besides me, of course.

I was walking through the nearby park, like I usually do. But this time, something had caught my eye. The park was empty except for me and Ruby, but there was an object emitting some sort of blinding light. The kind that if you were to look at it for more than a few seconds, then when you would finally look away, you would have little dots dancing around your vision. When I picked it up, which I kind of see was a bad idea, it was like holding fire. I dropped the glowing thing, and Ruby started to bark at it, the burning feeling still prickling my hand. Then, right where the object had dropped, some sort of vortex had started to open, sucking me in. The last thing I remembered after that was falling.

Thankfully, the forest that I fell into had some pretty tall trees that cushioned my fall (not really). I angelicaly landed (crashed) onto the ground.'Ow! Damn it, who put trees here?' I yelled because it really really hurt. My body made this cracking sound, and my leg had bent in a super unnatural way. There was bone and a lot of blood. A lot. I blacked out (I don't know why, though)

When I woke up, I was on a bed in a sort of cabin-like room. There were 2 green sofas against the walls facing each other, with a little coffee table in the middle and a kitchen, in which I was in the middle of on a table, not a bed, which was probably why my back hurt like hell. There were two people in the kitchen, one baking some sort of bread and the other washing some dishes.

'Ow.' I winced as I tried sitting up. Pain shooted to my leg. 'Oh! You're awake.' Both people had turned around and were now looking at me. 'Your leg was pretty badly hurt. How did you manage to do that?' The girl said, looking at me with disapproval. She had long, blonde hair that looked so straight she wouldn't have to brush it for days, and it would still have zero knots in. Her green eyes seemed to dance like a flame. She wore a lovely white dress dotted with purple flowers and all sorts of jewellery. 'What?' I questioned, still not entirely sure of what was happening.

'I found you out in the forest. You were unconscious and badly hurt, so I took you and brought you here. We had to do something about your leg, though. Sorry.' She said, which confused me until I looked down.

'AHH!' I screamed. 'Calm down, it's not that big of a deal.' The man, a strong, muscular dude with dark skin adorned with freckles that looked to be in about his forties. 'Not that big of a deal!? My leg is gone!' I yelled. 'Where did it go? I had my leg this morning.' 'Now you dont.' He replied with a proud looking smile.

'Now I- where is my leg!' I demanded. I mean, who just takes people's legs off without asking? 'I told you we should have asked, dad.' The girl said to the man. 'Exactly! Thank you!' I said. 'You guys can't just take my leg!' I yelled, directing the words at the man. 'I'm Jericho, I prefer Eric though, since you didn't even ask before you chopped my leg off!' I said (cool name, I know). 'I'm Ariel, this is my dad, Sebastian.' She said. 'Well, Ariel, lovely to meet you.' I said, shaking her hand.

'I can make you a new leg, Jericho. No need to be a baby, now, is there?' He said with a grin on his face. Rude. Before I could say an awesome comeback, he started measuring my right leg (which was still there). After a while, he walked away to go make my new leg, letting me talk with Ariel. You could tell she was one of those really pretty girls who didn't try to be pretty.

'Soo... where is this because the last thing I remember is falling out of the sky.' I said, looking at her expectingly. 'This is Emaia. Also, what did you mean "falling out of the sky?"' She questioned, looking confused and tilting her head to the side. 'Well, I was just walking my dog, Ruby, and I kinda just fell, and there was this glow-y thing and- My dog! Ruby!' I yelled, standing up from my position on the sofa, forgetting about my leg and immediately falling to the floor. 'Ow.'

I'd forgotten all about Ruby! Did she fall through with me? Is she safe? A million things were going through my head, and I didn't even notice I was hyperventilating until Ariel's dad, Sebastian, had started to shake me lightly. I had managed to tuck myself into a weird looking ball against the couch because my left leg was, well, not there. After a long, long time of uneven breathing and being told everything would be okay, I finally was able to slow my breathing. 'Sorry.' I said. I mean, I just wasted these nice (ish) people's time. 'It's alright, love,' He said in the same soothing voice he had been using for the past 10ish minutes.'Ariel had been trying to calm you down for a while by the time I came back in here because I found you a leg that would match.

He went and got me the leg, and after him showing me take it on and off, he let me look in a mirror. Well... I looked like I had just fallen out of the sky. My dark hair was more matted than usual with a few leaves sticking out, a few cuts that would easily heal on my head from falling through branches, my new leg which was made out of a amazing-looking black metal and my clothes were covered in blood. While I was checking myself out, Ariel had explained what had happened before Seb had gotten there.

'Yeah, we are probably gonna have to find you some new clothes.' He said, patting me on the shoulder. "For now, you'll just have to borrow some of mine.' He said, Ariel going upstairs and grabbing me a pair of clothes that were 1000% too big. Man, he is bulky. The outfit looked like it came directly out of the 1900s, but still, I looked at amazing as always.

The prosthetic was really weird getting used to, but after three days, I was good enough not to trip every five seconds. I didn't want to wait any longer because I didn't want Ruby to be out there any longer. In my time staying, it wasn't that hard to figure out that I was nowhere near home. These guys didn't even know what Sonic the Hedgehog was!

Me and Ariel left to go look in the forest around where she found me, and Seb had to stay because he runs a bakery! (Who would've thought.) We left at 7, after having the best food I have ever eaten, except for the cake at my aunt Jessie's funeral. That was some good cake.

[that-foul-legacy-lover]

I have more brainrot but its on Al Haitham because uhh

30 pity for Al Haitham and I randomly got his weapon when pulling for Jade Spear. He must like me.

Imagine Al Haitham being an Abyssal Legacy, most likely from a knowledge capsule gone wrong at one point and he is stuck in his new form. I headcanon him as Autistic bc Im Autistic and my word is law /j.

But he absolutely DETESTES his heightned sense of hearing now. He used to be able to wear soundproof headphones with adjustable settings but now they cant even fit on his head. Of course he went straight to the traveller who took him straight to you, the alledged "abyssmal tamer". In reality you just attract them like a magnet unwarrented. you help Al Haitham adjust until he obtains his human form back and feed him snacks. Childe took some time getting used to the new Roommate but understood Al Haitham was here because he wanted help from you.

Eventually the problem was fixed and Al Haitham paid you handsomely for the caretaking but also your silence about the whole thing...nobody needs to know how much he loves cuddles and bed time stories.

Kaveh was not used to the silence so when he asked Al Haitham the only response was "I had a slight detour when it came to some of the knowledge capsules"

I have like no more brain juice Im sorry

aaaaa my dear i am so sorry for how long this took to answer ;-;;;;

i can just imagine you opening the door to see a sheepish Traveler, a confused Paimon, and a VERY irritated Abyss monster, and without a word you simply sigh and usher them all inside. Childe immediately approaches when you sit on the couch, curling up by your side and casting curious glances at the new Abyss creature in the house, who the Traveler tells you is called "Alhaitham". they ramble on and on about how they'd really appreciate it if you took him in, and how they'd make sure you'd be paid handsomely, and it's be really helpful of you to do, and you simply not idly before clearing your throat

"What does he think about it?"

Alhaitham blinks in surprise, tilting his head in consideration. you're quiet, perhaps purposefully so, always keeping your voice soft and light, especially when the other Abyss monster- Childe- was near you, and you seem to be kind enough, if a little tired. but does he really want to live with essentially two strangers until this whole situation is resolved?

Paimon yells in his ear, and Alhaitham decides that yes, yes he does

he acclimates fairly quickly to a new lifestyle in your home- for the most part, you and Childe leave him alone unless he needs you, and you take it upon yourself to provide as many books as you can find in your house. Childe is another variant of his kind- albeit permanently so- and occasionally chats with Alhaitham through a language of chirps and trills, even going so far as to share your lap (the best pillow ever) with him when thunderstorms are particularly loud. sometimes Alhaitham sees you working on some type of project, but whenever he clicks curiously you simply smile and put a finger to your lips

a few weeks later he finds a pair of soundproof headphones on his bed, specifically made for his new form

Alhaitham's really not clingy, he only seeks your touch when it's thundering outside or if there's something loud like fireworks, but occasionally he'll spot you and Childe together on the couch and silently sneak over to join you- which of course he'll NEVER admit when he turns back into a human. he does apologize for the trouble, but you just smile and wave, Childe standing behind you and chirping goodbye, saying that you're used to it and showing him a map back to Sumeru

and the moment he steps into the city he's bombarded by questions from his friends and colleagues, and he almost wants to turn right around and head back to the peace and quiet of your house

Agustín never sang during Don't Talk About Bruno, and that lives in my head rent-free at all times of the day AAAAA

---

Bruno hid from the party on the roof, something that Agustín and Félix didn't have to fact-check as Casita helped them up and to its wayward son. Félix had a drink while Agustín brought an old blanket that hadn't been touched since the day Bruno vanished, their target watching the distant fireworks under the eave of his tower.

The poor guy looked frazzled, which wasn't too surprising.

To his credit, Bruno didn't seem too surprised to see them, Agustín settling on his left while Félix settled on his right, the weighted blanket carefully set on Bruno's lap. It's only when he looks over to accept the drink Félix that they see his eyes are entirely glowing green, and the slightly older man smiles.

"You doing alright hermano?" Bruno shrugged, sipping the warm tea as he returned his gaze to the fireworks. The last time they had hung out together was the night before Mirabel's door opening ceremony, beer flowing between them as the three celebrated the upcoming celebration with an admittedly nervous Agustín. It was the last time Bruno had cracked a smile, the man barely leaving his tower as the children were helping the town as he did prophecies almost day and night.

He was gone the next night, and it hurt like nothing else to learn Bruno hadn't gone too far in order to protect his youngest niece.

"Are the kids having fun?" Bruno's whisper was nearly stolen by a firework, but both Fèlix and Agustín were pros at catching his mumbles over the years.

"Sí, they'll be asleep the second everyone goes home." Félix chuckled, having already tucked Antonio into bed before he had gone to find Bruno. The seer smiles at the thought, and Félix sits back against the tower with a hum.

"Eh Bruno...may I ask something?" Agustín hadn't spoken a word since he had followed his fellow in-law, fiddling with a small wrapped package as he glanced over.

"S-Sí, always hermano."

"Why...when did...do you hate us?" Glowing green eyes look over in surprise, and the youngest of the three did his best to not look away.

"Why would I hate you?" It's such a soft question that is filled more with confusion than hatred and Agustín wants to scream.

If it's for Bruno or for himself, he cannot say.

"The family made a song about how you were cursed, every time I said your name the entire village shushed me, the children...how do you not hate us?" Félix is the one to look down in shame as Agustín nearly pleads with Bruno, having done his part to fuel the flames to please his wife.

"I don't care what others think of me, I only wanted to protect Mirabel." His response this time isn't confusion, and Agustín has to take a breath before he does or says something stupid. "You, uh, you never sang."

"No, it was wrong." Agustín was not known as an angry man, but the snarl that escaped him was only a fraction of the anger he felt. "You've never done anything wrong, and I'm sorry you couldn't come to us for what you saw. I failed mi hermano and I can't apologize enough, I'll never be able to apologize enou-"

"You being here is all I need." Bruno reached over to rest a hand on Agustín's knee, those glowing eyes seeming to stare into his soul before the seer smiles, turning to the other man beside him. "Both of you."

"Hope you stick to that tomorrow, you're not going to sneak away again if we have our say." Félix smiled, his guilt shoved into the back of his mind for another time. The trio lapsed into silence once again, the last of the fireworks going off before the town decided it was time to finally rest after spending so long rebuilding Casita, friends embracing before wandering off into the night. Bruno glances down when he feels a small package placed onto his lap, empty mug set aside as he unwraps it to reveal a long chain laden with multicolor glass beads.

"I had that made for your 40th, but..." Agustín sighed, watching Bruno gently run his thumb over the glass. "Better late than never."

"This...gracias." Bruno was already fiddling with the gift, and Agustín showed him the chain was long enough to wrap around his hands in a few fashions to give him easy access. "You remembered.."

"Of course."

Bruno smiles, and if he eventually dozes off against Agustín as their town decides the same, his brother-in-law says nothing. They had their hermano back, and for now that was enough.

I don't ship majormoon or hell even see pearl as trans, but I don't get the hate for trans man pearl x cis gay scott when I've seen ppl do this to other characters in the mcyt fandom even in the traffic life series and everyone loves it.

I think it's because it's a canon gay character and they think you making pearl trans as an "excuse to ship them" even if that was the case, which I think is not, you are still respecting Scott boundaries of not shipping him with women, idk it's just confusing how ppl are fine with it until you bring Scott into the mix.

Also we need more gay/straight ppl shipped with trans characters canon or not

Sorry I saw you get hate on that on the Scott shipping bracket, and as a trans person myself it felt really disrespectful

thank you so much anon yes exactly this 🙏🙏

All the labels I give Pearl are my labels too which is what bugs me the most about this

And I have a high school au thingy where I made her go like.

lesbian -> (straight?) trans man -> bisexual trans man -> gay trans man -> gay bigender -> bisexual? bigender -> what the fuck is going on man aaaaa labels are so hard -> gendervoid verinix and queer!! (But its easier to say ftm/bigender mlm. Still could like women but its so not often that prefers to call himself a gay man 98% of the time)

And guess what? THATS BEEN MORE OR LESS MY QUEER HISTORY SINCE I STARTED QUESTIONING MY IDENTITY!! ONLY DIFFERENCE IS I HAD A GENDERFLUID ERA BETWEEN CIS LESBIAN AND BI TRANS MAN-

My main reason to ship majormoon was because LL scott reminded me of my current partner

I still am not that big of a fan of DL majormoon cause. On the opposite end of the spectrum. DL scott reminds me of a shitty ex of mine.

But either way ofc I cant ignore it cause its a big part of their story! But thats why I tend to focus on spreading positivity about the ship in all its other aspects

If other people get to have fun, project, have headcanons and etc. Why cant I?

Cause I dont give Pearl short hair? Cause i dont change anything abt her design? Cause he still uses she pronouns? He/She slash She/He users also have the She there for a reason.

I dont change anything abt Pearl's design myself and let him present femenine/androgynous and keep the long hair in most of my art is. BECAUSE AGAIN THATS ME!!

I personally dont have body disphoria *most* of the time. I have social disphoria yes. I wanna be treated as a man and I dont want anyone I didn't explicitly allow to to she/her me cause yes Im bigender but i mostly feel like a man. But I have *zero* plans to medically transition.

I love how I look, I love how I dress, I love wearing make up and I love how my voice sounds. I dont personally fw long hair cause that *does* make sme disphoric, but for Pearl I think it fits her. I think he deserves to keep his hair long for as long as she decides to do so.

In general. Let people have their trans headcanons and ship them with whoever they want

a straight cis person dating a straight trans person doesnt make them a gay couple.

a gay/queer cis person dating a gay/queer trans person doesnt make them a straight couple.

Trans men dont owe you masculinity.

Trans women dont owe you femininity.

Nonbinary people dont owe you androgyny.

Transmasc =/= trans man

Transfem =/= trans woman

Pronouns =/= gender

I thought we all mostly knew this but just in case a little reminder

[unrelatabledude]

KICKS DOWN YOUR DOOR

AAAAA TELL ME ABOUT THE RINHIME UUULTRAC AU

SO SORRY FOR BEING LATE!!!

Under the cut

I do want to say as a little start here: I really didnt enjoy the second two routes of uuultraC. Shirou's chapter drove me into a mink route level depression and I hated how the third route ended. so really this is a little bit of me rewriting the bits i liked and then. making it ensemble stars.

but yes let me. bullet points some bits for u.

HiMERU -The main difference between the two worlds is kaname's death. Our himeru has been pretending to be kaname for literal years -Tried acting and modelling for a while, but keeps getting locked out -Has not realized hes a Kaiju, but Rinne knows -Kaiju stuff awakened when Kaname died, and helps make his disguise perfect -Has the worlds strangest most co dependant fwb thing going on with Rinne. He thinks Rinne is dating Niki (who knows about him) -Has a dream connection with Kohaku. They share dreams and memories -Knows Jun and Tatsumi as Kaname's friends, and is bad at interacting with them, blames tatsumi for Kaname's death

Rinne -Left his hometown in a bid to see the outside world -The next day the town has leveled, and Hiiro died. He blames himself. -Still calls Niki his wife, but its a joking thing. They mean the world to each other. Niki still took him in until he started mooching off Himeru. -Met Himeru while Himeru was bartending. He saved him from falling, and theyve been inseperable ever since. -Doesn't get the whole hero appeal thing, but desperate to save ppl. -Says hes getting into professional gambling and writing, doesnt want Himeru to read his work

Hiiro

-Reincarnation of the younger brother Rinne lost

-He's normal aged in the other world, and dies again in this one

-They're close in the other world and live a happy life

Tatsumi -Apart of ORANGE -Desperate not to fumble Kaname again. -Has not realized Himeru is not Kaname. Very forward with him -Wants to make the world better for Kaname, became a kaiju for him

The other routes would have -Kohaku and Madara (platonic not ship) as a replacement for the second route. Madara's detective agency and the high schooler that keeps saving him from trouble he gets into. Madara 4D chessing his way into situations to get Himeru to act as bait. That kinda stuff.

-Izumi and Leo as the third route Leo being an alien, desperately searching for divine inspiration as he rips the world apart. Formed ORANGE with Tsukasa to instigate monster fights. Izumi is obsessed with him, and desperate to make him better, but they keep talking past each other. Kohaku is their main agent, but has been going rogue to help Madara.

Other ppl involved would be -Niki as the hero and coworker both Himeru and Rinne share without knowing -Aira as the investigative blogger getting into trouble -Mayoi as a young kaiju that Madara helps

SORRY THIS IS SO CONFUSING AND NON-SENSICAL. I dont know how to explain myself and if youre confused or want more info i will do my best. thank you for your interest im really touched and wanna cry. sorry that its not so good. Have a tatsumi

[wonwonyoyo]

I just finish, so

we had 2 sessions I took the first session in the table but sadly not a lot of people were there so bussiness wasn't doing well, we only had 2 packet sold (2 pudding, 1 kelepon)

the second session i play as the runner and its more eventful as more people came. But let me tell you this.. the entrance to like receive ticket? It was so quiet, (because the one who is in charge is like 2 introverts in my class) So as a loud extrovert i stepped in and help them, making sure to give a warm atmosphere in the entrance. Sadly I had to go back and fourth because I had to take care of my group handling the table. But in ended well, veryy welllll.

I felt so happy when doing the bazaar but at the same time tired as hell sooo imma go to sleep early (hope i can, im a night owl). Sorry if there are like stuff in my english still like confusing and all (Im too tired to recheck my sentences). Goodnight and have a good day!

[blazeismyname]

STIMMING SO HARD!!!! I love the part with Brian having chronic pain. Thus, dresses are better. That's SO GOOD. Do you think it'd kinda.. yknow, shock Jonny, since Jonn barely sees the outside world except through a mirror, so he's never seen a man in a dress. Like, when Brian is taken into the castle, he has something more like, suitable for running in the woods like a men's blouse and pants (maybe with a good old leather corset?) and then he changes into a dress he find in the wardrobe and Jonny is like "A man in a dress?" (Clearly confused but also IN LOVE with it) and Brian is just like "Helps the pain". And Jonny has t live with it and even accommodates it BY SEWING MORE DRESSES, WE CAN PULL SEWING JONNY HEADCANON INTO THIS

Also, the yellow suits Brian. That's all I have to say for this segment, just... mmm

So, like, here's something that never made it through cause I was too busy. At least on the musical version, there's this feather duster that Lumiere ends up with. Take away the romance, make the feather duster Bertie somehow. And the whole time they're just being boys and bullying the hell out of each other.

There is one thin I haven't quite figured out yet and it's Chip.

HAHA, WHAT IF, INSTEAD OF WOLVES, THEYRE JUST REALLY HUNGRY OCTOKITTENS-

OKOK! ALSO, ON THE NOTE OF BRIAN TEACHING JONNY TO DANCE! What if they practice together for a while and the dance scene where the beast is supposed to confess is like, Jonny trying to show Brian what he learned from him and its really sweet? Brain is enamored by how well Jonny is doing since Jonny was a clumsy ass fool beforehand, and now he's come so far. He like, asks how Jonny is dancing so well, and Jonny goes, "You taught me it, and I've been practicing..." and he's all red because Jonny is a sucker for Brian at that point

Oo.. the mob... I was going to go to who hated Jonny, but everyone does. Uh... It'd be funny if somehow TS got one sarcastic order from Marius, and then it carried a whole plan out? I'm not sure how much I love that, but it's an idea.

OH! WHO WOULD BE THE WITCH THAT CURSED JONNY? I want it to be Nastya as some sort of sibling rivalry thing, but I don't know. Doesn't feel fitting. Again, would go with someone who hates Jonny, but everyone does

Also, the octokitten stool is my everything. It inicsplicably has 8 legs, Brian asks, and Jonny's like, "UHHH- Special made!" (Cause they have to cover up the whole magic thing).

OHMYGOSH!!! AND THE WHOLE THING ABOUT BRIAN JUST BEING SO BEAUTIFUL BUT IN HIS ODD WAY!!! DUDE!!! He's walking down the path to go to a store to get some replacement strings or drum sticks, and theirs just faint little metal noises that's super off putting...

Brian singing the song that Belle sings about the village!!!! Oh my fog, I'm gonna pass away. AAAAA

Okok, my friend, who I compare to Raph, was in the previously mentioned musical of Beauty and the Beast. She was ensemble, and at one point, she was a knife. When I told her I was talking about this, she said to make Raph and knife- Thought I'd mention that

I'm gonna go now.. this is stuck in my head though... also sorry for all the disconnected and scattered thoughts

Beauty and the Beast, but it's the Mechanisms.

Jonny must be the beast because feral Jonny and the whole heart thing... prove me wrong.

Tim or Brian is Belle.

Rest of the Mechs are the servants in the Beast's house. With an exception for Marius as Gaston cause I can totally fucking see it. He would suck at it though because it's Marius. And also, short Marius HC.

This is probably not new. But it's been brewing in my head for a good few months, ever since I put my Mechs OC in the iconic Belle dress.

[lockawayknight]

@of-forossa said: [sacrifice] Here they stand against the remains of the restless dead, against the rattle-bones and fierce flames of three skeleton lords on three skeleton thrones. One slain, two, before their servants rise to to join the fray with their battered blades and wicked wheels, and their melee turns to madness... a shout rings above the din of battle, a fist clenched suddenly around Creighton's chain mail and a sharp tug, before steel shrieks and blood splatters and Brom catches hold of the pinwheel skeleton that had been barreling towards the Mirran's flank. Whirling teeth trapped between plates and flesh, Brom coughs wetly before breaking its skull, nodding wearily at him before diving back into the fray.

from Nonverbal Memes [selectively accepting]

It all happens so fast. Truly, the Forossan’s reflexes are even more akin to lightning than the power that pulses within Creighton’s blade.

Honestly, Creighton is less aware of the sudden tug to safety and more aware of the warmth of fresh, undead blood that spatters his mask and clings to his eyelids. Terribly jarred (but so far unshaken), Creighton quickly works to regain his footing on the unstable, marrow-slicked ground as he shakes the blood from his face like a wet dog.

An active onslaught leaves no room for epiphanies of guilt or fear. In a well-trained blink, like an apathetic general of war, Creighton takes a split second pause to absorb as many quick details of the new situation that he can to properly weigh his next move. One Lord remains. Another wheelbound skeleton’s directing its focus towards him. The remaining two skeletal warriors are in the process of being crushed by his comrade. Brom’s been hurt, dreadfully so, and it’s all his missteps fault.

Fuck… should have just let me get killed, you fucking idiot… What the hell was Brom thinking, taking a direct hit like that? It’s a distracting enough thought that Creighton nearly misses the second skeleton’s charge, though a quick jab of his axe’s hook through the wheel’s spokes leaves it collapsed for an easy crushing — muscle memory. Unsure and now half-unstable, Creighton watches as the reckless Forossan continues to fight despite his injury, and his every muscle tenses with hatred. Not towards Brom — no, not at all — but at his own foolishness for allowing such an injury to occur on his watch. It should have been me to take that hit… What point is there in travelling with a knight if not to take cover behind their shield of flesh?

Have I really proven myself so useless so quick…?

The final Lord has descended from its throne, and Creighton is in no mood to let another injury befall his current companion. Not on his watch, not ever again, he refuses to lose anyone else. His already-overwhelming Mirran ferocity morphs into something near-primal when the Lord before him reels back its scythe. He’s divorced himself entirely from the definition of mercy. One solid swipe is all it takes to slice bone and armour clean in two, the Lord’s life essence perishing in a flash of flame and black soul energy as the ground rattles with reanimating foes. Simple pickings. Target practice. A jar full of ladybirds and moths.

As soon as they’ve sprung up, the remaining skeletal minions are crushed by the two warriors, ground to dust that disperses with their souls. But there’s no victory in their end — no, not yet. Not when Brom is still injured. Not when Creighton’s still got something to say. With the same adrenalised movement that he’d used to fell his foes, the knight’s off towards his companion in a sprint.

“What a bloody stupid stunt that was,” he bitches at Brom through panting breaths, his concern taking flight as a bird of prey. He’s never been good at the whole being-honest-with-your-feelings thing. All of his concern wears a strange veil of anger in this moment. The only shadow of its terrified face that can be clearly seen is in the form of the radiant lifegem the knight presses firmly into Brom’s palm. A simple thanks would be the correct response to the situation at hand, of course, but Creighton’s not very good at guessing games. Catching his breath, he simply continues to wheeze through frustratedly gritted teeth. “Could’ave spared yourself the scars if you would’ave jus’ let me take the hit, ya bastard. The hell did you ask for help for if you were jus’ gonna be a reckless idiot anyway, huh?”

Paranoia’s already kicking at his mind’s gate. Maybe Brom’s looking for a reason to keep Creighton indebted to him. Maybe he wants something to hold over the knight’s head. Maybe this was all some sort of trick.

Or… maybe he’s just a nice guy. Maybe Creighton’s only paranoid because of the light from recent events — of the shadows from recent betrayals.

Whatever it is, it’s making it hard for him to breathe.

Inhale, inhale, inhale…

When he finally catches his breath, he’s also caught up to his thoughts... more or less. He fishes another lifegem out from the hidden compartment in his belt where he keeps his healing wares, then holds it out for Brom in case he’s in need of another. “Don’t you dare scare me like that again,” he says, his voice’s dark colour now unmistakably, overwhelmingly full of worry. “You an’ your damned recklessness.” (As if he’s one to talk.) “Gonna get yourself killed again one day.” And for what? Over a knight who couldn’t even protect one man, couldn’t even hold the trust of another? Why would Brom bother to care at all? It just doesn’t make any sense…

One more inhale, then he’s all caught up to his thoughts, though the picture they paint isn’t pretty. Certainly not pretty enough for him to show any more of its canvass than a colourless blotch of care. Exhale. “You worry me, mate… Stay safe, for fuckssake, alright?”
