#tagging that so i can find this again and no talky tag

[plushipaws]

I don't think im meant to host. Once our system found alastor (and kinda rebuilt him from the three alters he split into) he has been fronting most of the time and it felt natrual. I became his advisor the way other alters are usually mine. A lot of childhood memories are his. Sometimes hosts do just change over time but as soon as he started doing it again it was like. Oh thank god this is how it was meant to be.

I do think I have existed a long time and fronted even as a child but I think it was mostly him and I would advise him from the back seat the way many alters have done to me later. I think I was created for the advisor role and just had to become the host bc Alastor has very strong NPD and BPD traits (so i beleive whole system is NPD and BPD) that I was good at masking and we had to mask it. I think thats why plushi especially is kinda entirely preoccupied with being cute, non threatening, friendly, and not having needs of its own and existing to always be happy. Creature is focused on being a empathetic listener, helpful and solve peoples problems, and holding depression. We always felt like... kind of empty like, something missing, we should have more personality. I think we are smaller fragments and more specific role focused than we thought, oriented to survive abuse situations. We felt missing a person who we should be, and I think that was us subconsciously missing Alastor hosting.

Trauma caused Alastor him to split into more alters (he still is not a fusion of everyone he was but I think the others are ok being seperate and he likes how he is now) so we couldnt really find him until healing allow him to come together again, and the situation is safe enough I dont need to protect him anymore. We also accept our NPD and BPD and know how to cope with it enough to let him out and allow him to express symptoms in healthy ways.

Im still an active alter and will be around, though the two alters I am (i am a subsystem) switch who is awake more and my personality shifts depending on that, and its not been super plushi lately so it feels weird having this be our main, lol. But plushi will definitely be back, it was a lot of fun being paw and I know paw is still here. Just weird to go from plushi hosting to. There hasnt been a plushi around these parts in 30 days :0

We hope our friends and mutuals will like Alastor too since he will be fronting mostly and we will be around less as we switch to him hosting. He doesn't act quite like me though since I exist basically to hide him so if you don't we understand; he is a lot more openly narcissistic and low empathy which we know not everyone vibes with. (Hes also very openly flirty and kinky which may also put folks off but he understands boundaries and is Normal about them). Though we think we will be a prominent alter and still avalible often, but we don't want to host anymore. We did it for years and we weren't supposed to have to.

Don't worry we aren't going anywhere! We still front often but it used to be like... us usually and then maybe for 3 days tops another alter comes before defaulting to us, and now we may come for three days tops and default to Alastor. And my system members can post and talk online when awake even if not fronting. But Alastor's blog is definitely the most active hub for us rn.

Alastor is @radiostaticsmile

Thanks for reading

Pervert price who steals clothes and sniffs them as he jacks off. Or listens through your door as you get off, listening to your groans and moans as be palms himself. Him getting hard at any little praise. Price who takes pictures of you without you knowing. He definitely stares at you while you shower in the group showers. Price is a perv and we all know it, but that's alright because I love him ❤️. I'm gonna rot your brain with price headcanons trust. I'm coming back w/a sugar baby Price headcanon fr.

Content tags: pervert / creepy price proceed with caution !!dubious consent!!!

Thinking about Pervert! Price taking interest in the much younger recruit and it eats at him because he feels like a creepy old man because of it. He tries to stay away he really does but it’s not his fault that his window looks out to the training field where he can see you do practice rounds at the shooting range, the way you’ll skillful assemble and disassemble the weapon, the way the uniform seems to cling to your body, and the way your deep voice will utter words of frustration when you miss your target.

Of course Price can’t help himself but stand at the window sill, lower half just obscured from view where he’s slowly and gently pumping his dick as he continues to watch you practice.

At first you don’t notice, too focused on your task but when you do, you salute him with a soft smile on your face before you turn your back to him again and the fact that you’re oblivious to what he’s doing, along with the common courtesy you always seem to show him has him cumming all over his fist.

Pervert! Price who’ll be kind enough to offer himself to do your laundry, claiming it’s not a big deal since he’s doing his own load already, only to scavenge through the pile of clothes looking for the pair of boxers with a suspicious stain on them, pressing his nose against them as he furiously pumps his dick and before he tips over the edge he makes sure to finish on the very same piece of clothing, in the very same spot that you did

Pervert!Price who discovers you have a little boyfriend, who can’t help but lay in bed fantasizing about creeping into your room, after your boyfriend’s left, tasting the taste of his cock on your lips, or using his tongue to clean up the ropes of cum he had spilled on your body. He’d literally grovel at your feet for any crumbs you’re willing to give him

Pervert! Price who’s oh so willing to help you shower, claiming it’s important to clean throughly only for his hand to slip between your legs and gently pump your length.

You’d freeze in place, hitched breath escaping your lips as you ask him what he’s doing.

“Just getting you cleaned up properly, don’t worry about it, boy” he’d say as he thumbs at the tip and he doesn’t stop til you’re cumming all over the shower wall.

Pervert! Price who finds himself jerking off, when the two of you are in charge of patrol, separated but still connected through the walkie talkie channel and he knows it’s wrong but he can’t help but unbuckle his belt, knows he shouldn’t be doing this but pulls down his pants anyway, and gently pumps his cock as your voice trickles through the device, only responding with short words when you ask him a question, or going silent for way too long, where you only hear heavy breaths on the line, you always get a bit suspicious about what he’s doing but you never really figure it out and he always manages to make himself cum, having to find whatever is available to clean himself up

Chapter 6

The atmosphere was quickly illuminated by red, white and blue hues as the now-new crime scene unfolded in front and inside of your house.

“Jesus, (Y/n), what happened?” Tatum sprinted to your side, maneuvering under the caution tape and into your living room.

You sighed, rubbing your temples in slow-soothing circles, stress appearing in dark patches under your eyes.

“He was here…” You whispered, traumatized as the image of Steve’s heart flickered in your memories.

“Tatum, you shouldn’t be here. This is official police business, now.” Dewey scolded his younger sister, walking up beside her.

“Ugh, as if…” She rolled her eyes, “She’s staying with Sidney and I tonight. I was coming to pick her up…”

“That was still happening… even after the fight Sidney and I had?” You looked up at Tatum, momentarily forgetting about all the fuss that was going on around you.

“Yep, it’s a good thing too.” Tatum chuckled, sitting next to you. “I don’t care what happened between you and Sid earlier, you were my friend first and I’ll be damned if I let a bitch-fit between the two of you get in the way.” She nudged your shoulder, playfully. You smiled, but it quickly faded, hearing the staticky-voice over Dewey’s walkie-talkie.

“Dewey, you might want to come see this.” Sheriff Burke spoke, concern coaxing his words.

Your stomach twisted in all sorts of directions, squeezing tightly at the acid that was forming in it, causing it to travel up to your esophagus. You were ready to vomit, but you swallowed it, fighting the feeling, not wanting to go anywhere by yourself.

You wondered what Sheriff Burke meant.

“Right away, Sir.” Dewey spoke into his device, walking into the direction of where his boss was.

“So, what exactly happened, ( N/n)?”

“I got a phone call, then it quickly escalated from there…” You placed your hands over your face, futilely attempting to suffocate yourself with the pressure. “I thought nothing of it at first, but I-I was already getting the heebie-jeebies from the call, but he sounded genuine, so I ignored the feeling and kept talking to him…” You brought your hands to your lap, looking at Tatum, “Then the ph-phone went silent and at that exact moment, my doorbell r-rang…” You stumbled your sentence, struggling to find the proper words to continue explaining. “I was hesitant, so I peeped through the eyehole, trying to see if anyone was lurking about, but there was no one.” You sighed, “I decided I’d open the door, and you know, maybe get a better look, again, there was no one.” A tear rolled down your cheek.

“Hey, hey, it’s okay, take it easy..” Tatum tried to comfort you and brought you into a hug, you were quick to wrap your arms around her, squeezing her, as you whimpered.

“Th-There was this box, and I didn’t think twice before I brought it into my home… oh, god.” You sobbed, “His heart was in it, Tatum, his fuckin’ heart!” Your voice broke.

“Hold on, whose heart?” She asked, baffled by what she was hearing.

“Steve’s.” You let out a quiet mewl, hugging Tatum tighter.

“How do you know?”

“Because he said it in the note and I-I believe it.” You sobbed yet again, “That’s not e-even the worst part…”

As bad as that may sound, it was true, the heart in the box wasn’t your main concern, but the fact that he was watching you, that he admitted it over the note that he had sloppily written, that he stated it over the phone; he was there, he could have been in your house the entire time, waiting for a moment to strike.

You could have been his next victim, the next book Gale Weathers would’ve written about. However, what’s even more concerning is that you thought it was sweet that he’d given you one of your biggest heartbreaks in a box. Pun intended.

The killer gave you Steve Orth’s heart; the guy that gave you both hell and pure bliss behind closed doors. The guy who seen you at your most vulnerable, the one who continued to defile you even when he was in a relationship.

You had his heart, officially. That’s all you ever wanted, but that was months ago.

This was karma doing what she did best, revenge…

Did the killer know about the affair? The humiliation? Did he kill Steve just for you? No, he couldn’t have, but did he? Was he someone you knew? Probably not, but he could be. You’ll never know and it’s eating you up inside. Why make a grand gesture and not show who he is, or even give you a subtle hint of who it may be.

As much as it scared you, it also humbled you. It was romantic, but completely unnecessary, yet, you wanted to thank him. Thank the stranger; the killer, for doing God’s dirty work, or in this case, Karma’s.

What is wrong with you? For fuck’s sake, he killed two people, and probably will kill again. Why would you want to thank him for that, are you that depraved? Maybe.

“Earth to (Y/n)?” Tatum snapped her fingers in front of your face, startling you from the never ending thoughts that corroded your mind.

“S-Sorry, what?” You stuttered, wiping a single tear from your cheek.

“I thought I lost you there for a moment, Hun. Dewey wants to speak with you…” She smiled, lightly, nodding towards her brother who appeared out of nowhere.

“Okay.. yeah, y-yeah, for sure..” Your voice was barely above a whisper.

You pushed yourself off the couch, making your way to the kitchen with Dewey.

“We’re sending the heart and the box away for DNA testing to see if it actually is Steve’s heart, alright?” Dewey explained, “We also want to take the note…” He stopped, turning around, picking up some other object, “And this to see if the suspect had left any fingerprints.” He showed it to you, and you paled, but the colour soon came back to your face as you felt yourself blush.

You were met with a paper-white face with two hollowed eyes and a gaping mouth, it was a mask, a mask that looked utterly horrifying, yet, disturbingly attractive at the same time.

Was it wrong that you were starting to get wet from the sheer thought of a possible tall and muscular man killing for you, wearing this mask?

Probably, but you didn’t care.

You squeezed your thighs together, putting pressure on your heat, trying to not let it slide that the mask was getting you off.

“We found this outside in the bushes by your house.” Dewey said, “Have you seen it before?”

You shook your head, biting your lip, you’ve never seen that before in your life, you’d be sure to remember it if you did. Though, now that you did see it, it wasn’t going to leave your mind, especially with how it was making you feel.

‘It almost looks like a Ghost Fac—‘ You cut yourself off mid thought.

“G.F…” You mumbled at no one in particular, “That’s what it stands for, Ghost Face, the killer dubbed himself as Ghost Face…”

rickmas day 11: out of reach 18+ MINORS AND THOSE WITHOUT AGE IN BIO DNI

warnings: swearing, fans being gross (DO NOT DO THIS IT WILL NOT END WELL FOR YOU SECURITY WILL BE CALLED), mention of rape (a threat against a security guard for touching a fan)

I sat next to Alexander, watching the line slowly fill up. I waved the first person up and marked off what they bought. Sliding the picture over to Alexander, I tapped it to let him know to behave. I half listened to what they were talking about as I got the next person in line ready. For the most part, it was men dressed up as Dr. Lazarus. Occasionally, they’d bring their partners or family members with them. Alexander was more interested in them than the ones who were trying to get him to say that line.

“Tell me when you’re ready for lunch.” I said as the line dwindled. “Or just need a break.” Alexander nodded as he put his hand on my thigh.

“You know I was ready for a break the second that line opened.” He chuckled. I rolled my eyes and squeezed his hand. “At least it hasn’t been too bad today.” I nodded.

“first day Alex.” I reminded him. “First day. Now behave. We got more fans.” He sighed as he pulled his hand away. “Hi. What can I get you?”

“an autograph. And a date?” The girl asked, pulling down her skirt as she handed me her money. I chuckled and shook my head.

“autograph I can do. You’re on your own for the date. But there’s plenty of available guys, girls and others walking around. Im sure you’ll have no trouble finding one.” I said as I got her change.

“no I mean with Dr. Lazarus.” She said. Alexander pulled back from the table and I raised an eyebrow. “Can you get me a date with him?”

“uh no. He’s taken.” I said. Alexander leaned over to whisper to me.

“I’m gonna…” he jerked his head and I nodded. “Security is there if you need it. Want me to send them over?” I nodded again before turning back to the girl. She was pouting watching Alexander walk away.

“look, I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume this is your first con. You don’t do that.” I said, making sure to keep smiling. “There’s a reason for the tables. To keep the celebrities out of reach. You don’t touch them without permission or inappropriately. You don’t make advances towards them. That is a surefire way to get thrown out of the con.”

“but I want to go out with him.” She twirled a piece of hair. “He’s hot.” I sighed and rubbed my forehead.

“look. Sure he’s handsome. Sure he plays a genius. But he isn’t a genius in real life. And honestly you should see him in the mornings. But it ain’t gonna happen. So I suggest you take your money and move along. If you stay here, security is going to escort you out of the hall.” I said, putting her money back on the table.

“so you’re telling me he won’t fuck me?” She asked. I sighed and turned my head at the sound of footsteps behind me.

“please tell me you heard that?” I asked the security guard who had stopped behind me.

“yep. Not taking no for an answer?” Bob asked. I nodded. "Alright. Come with me." I watched as the girl struggled when Bob put his hand on her back to guide her away.

"I'll call rape." She threatened. Bob sighed and moved to the side, making sure he wasn't touching her.

"I need backup." He said into his walkie talkie and looked back at me with a sigh. I rolled my eyes and pulled out my phone.

"I can call the police if you need them Bob." I said, holding up my phone. The girl looked between us before huffing and stalking off. Bob trailed after her, shoulders shaking with laughter as they disappeared into the crowd. I waved down someone and sent them off to grab Alexander. "All taken care of." I said once he had sat down next to me again. Leaning over, he kissed my cheek.

"Good." He sighed as he cupped my cheek. "They should know by now that I'm off limits."

"Yeah well." I said as he pecked my cheek. "Takes a few a bit longer I guess."

Dinner for two

Picture not mine (Pinterest)

Pairing: Tim Bradford x GN!Reader

Summary: Tim had a lot on his mind when he responded to a call that day. What he hadn’t have in mind, that he was taking out the victim to dinner.

Warnings: none, fluff, season 4 spoilers

Note: This is my second story on Tumblr and my first The Rookie story. I hope it’s bearable to read. Feedback is very welcomed!

masterlist / taglist

Tim’s first week as Sargent wasn’t as he expected. Sargent Grey has been observing his every move and he felt like a rookie all over again. Not to mention all the kids boots he is keep finding in his locker. Tim was exhausted. And now that the department hired Aaron Thorsen, the alleged killer of Patrick Hayes, his brain seemed to explode.

That’s why he didn’t see the sniper shooting coming and how the bullet graced the shoulder of a civilian, you. Tim instantly felt bad and rushed to your aid. His hands tried to stop the bleeding, but nothing seemed to help. How didn’t he see it coming? His brain went into survival mode, one of the first times not for his survival.

You were conscious and breathing, a relief for Tim, but for you it meant pain. Pain you never imagined feeling. And the stressed look of the officer above you didn’t seas your own stress. You tried to take your mind off the pain and your eyes wandered. The nametag of the helping officer read ‘Bradford’. His badge had ‘Sargent’ and ‘3483’ engraved. So, the helping officer wasn’t just an officer, he was the Sargent.

Tim saw your eyes on his badge and name tag, and he realized that he hasn’t introduced himself or asked for your name. “Ma’am, my name is Tim Bradford, you were injured, can you tell me your name?”

His words didn’t seem to arrive to you. You saw his mouth moving, but nothing came out of it.

“Ma’am? Do you understand me?” – “I can’t hear you”, you slurred. Tim’s eyes narrowed and for a split second put more pressure on the wound – you instantly moaned. Why wasn’t the ambulance on the scene yet?

“Control, where is the requested Ambulance? I have a gunshot wound to the shoulder, who won’t stop bleeding. Victim also doesn’t seem to hear clearly. I need backup, now!”

Just as he wanted to yell into the walkie-talkie again, the ambulance arrived on the scene. They rushed to you and provisionally wrapped your shoulder with a pressure gauze. They lifted you onto the stretcher, faces after faces appeared over your own and tried to talk to you, but nothing came through to you. Just as you thought you were alone, the pretty face of the Sargent appeared in front of you. Your heart started to race as his hand engulfed yours. His face softened as he spoke to you again. Broken word pieces came through to you and the bits you caught didn’t stop your heart racing.

“You’re going to make it through, no doubt. I believe in you!”

Even when you were rolled into the hospital, Sargent Bradford didn’t let go of your hand. Only when you were rolled into surgery, you missed the warmth of his hand. And when you woke up, you didn’t think you would feel the warmth again, but you did.

“Good morning, I know you don’t know me, but I couldn’t just let you alone, after all it’s my fault you got shot.”

“Wait, what? How can you be at fault for me being shot at?”

“I wasn’t in the right mindset and didn’t see it coming, I’m sorry. It shouldn’t happen, it’s all my fault.”

“Did you pull the trigger?” Your eyebrow raised your eyes bored into his.

“No?” He looked away ashamed.

“See, then you’re not at fault, everyone has a bad day, it happens.” Your voiced softened, you really didn’t think he was at fault.

“But my bad days shouldn’t affect an innocent civilian’s life.”

“I survived and I can walk away with a broken shoulder, but nothing worse happened.”

You didn’t want him to feel bad, about anything. Not just about the shooting. You wanted to hug him and hold him in your arms and tell him everything will be fine. But you couldn’t, you didn’t even know his name.

“Let’s start over. I still don’t know your name?”, you asked him.  

You saw his face, it softened a bit, relieved you weren’t mad at him. “Tim Bradford.”

“Hey Tim, what’s flooding your brain today?” Your psychology degree came to use after all.

After about three hours, the Doctor came and released you. And Tim couldn’t just let you go. Good for him, you weren’t ready for that either. So, when he wanted to say goodbye, you asked him, if he could drive you home. He immediately agreed and led you to his car.

“You know, as a cop I have to remind you, not to get into a stranger’s car.”

“I’ve known you for a couple of hours, so you’re not a stranger anymore”, you smiled at him. “But you are true, even if you are a Sargent, we may want to start our first date not at my house.”

“But you’re injured!” – “True, but still”, you looked at him and had a mischievous smile on your face. “Ah, you’re trying to trick me”, his head dropped in disbelief and a small smile appeared on his face. “So, take-out at yours?”, he asked, and you immediately agreed.

You ordered Chinese, your favorite, and talked about everything. About his start as a Sargent, your job as a therapist. Your family, his family, especially his dad. It felt like you had known each other since forever. Talking to him was just so easy. Nothing felt out of place or wrong. Honestly, it felt like a dream.

So, when you woke the next morning, you weren’t actually sure, if Sargent Bradford even existed. Your pain in your shoulder distracted you from his absence, but your mind still wondered if it was all a dream. What you didn’t expect, was a cup of coffee and your painkillers waiting in your kitchen. Next to it was a note with his number on it. With a smile on your face, you saved the number on your phone with “SGT. Heartthrob <3”.

                                                SGT. Heartthrob <3

                                                                                                      You left early, xx

I know and I’m sorry

I had to leave for roll-call

                                                                                      It’s okay, you made coffee

I did, was it good?

                                                                                         It was perfect, thank you

You smiled and you couldn’t stop the whole day. But your day was boring, you were never off work, you always had something to do, even on your free days. So, this was your first time, since you started the job, that you had nothing to do. To say, you were surprised when Tim showed up at your house, was an understatement. He was smiling and held up a bag of takeout in his hand. “I thought, you weren’t up for cooking, so I brought takeout.”

And you had dinner again, for the second time that week. And it felt exactly the same as last night. With the exception, that Tim stayed in the morning and brought you your coffee and painkillers himself. Breakfast in bed.

Here are some Lonel incorrect quotes I cackled on.

Lonel: Hi. Selys: Hey, did you do what I said? Did you tell them? Lonel: I did. Selys: And what did they say? Lonel: “Thank you.” Selys: You’re totally welcome. What’d they say? Lonel: They said, “Thank you.” I said “I love you” and Odena said, “Thank you.”

Odena: You should have realised, Lonel, if Selys didn't kill you, we would. Okay but this one would be a fucking plot twist LMAO.

Lonel: *sneaking in through their window* Selys: *turning in their chair and flicking the light one* You want to tell me where you've been all night? Lonel: I was with Odena? Odena: *turning in their chair* Wanna try again?

Lonel: Well, remember when Odena made a romantic dinner for me? Selys: Lonel, they microwaved you a pizza.

Odena: You ever see something that changes your life and you're just like "huh.." Lonel: I saw you. Odena: Honestly that's so cute and sweet but it kinda makes this awkward because I was gonna show you a picture of Selys in a turkey costume.

Lonel: I asked Odena out. Selys: Oh, I’m sorry. Lonel: Why? Selys: Well, I assume they said no. Lonel: No, they said yes. Selys: Really? Then I’m sorry for them.

Selys: Someone take me to art museums and make out with me. Lonel: But they said not to touch the masterpieces. Selys: Well somebody's got to pin the artwork to the wall. Odena, on a walkie talkie: This is Odena, those idiots are fucking around in the East wing again.

Lonel: Where are you going? Odena: To get MYSELF a gift cause somebody didn't get me one! Lonel: I told you I did! Its coming here on Friday! Selys, knowing full well that Lonel got Odena an engagement ring: *eating popcorn*

Selys: So, are you two dating now? Lonel & Odena: Yes. Selys: Why? Lonel: I happen to find Odena very appealing. Selys: Yeah, I can understand that. I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with Odena.

Odena: Why doesn’t Lonel find me sexy when I bite my lip? Selys: What do you look like when you bite your lip? Odena: *bites lip* Selys: ...Have you considered biting your bottom lip instead?

Selys: Can we talk about that mass email you sent? Lonel: Why? It was important. Selys: All it says is, "I'm back on my shit". Odena, shrugging: The people need to know.

Odena: Hey guys! I drew everyones soul! Selys: Why is Lonel's a monster? Lonel: Odena, you forgot Selys's! Its only an empty space! Odena, proudly: Exactly.

Odena, to Selys and Lonel: *holding knife out in front of them* Are you or are you not an enemy of the people?! Selys: ... Lonel: ... Selys: That is such an open-ended question. Lonel: Yeah, it really depends on a lot of different factors-

*Lonel and Odena texting* Lonel: Come downstairs and talk to me please. I'm lonely. Odena: Isn't Selys there? Lonel: Yes but I like you more.

Absolutely Normal Nonsense

Lil' brainless ficlets about Chrissy and her himbo Edward

Next Nonsense ->

�� Skating 🛼

Chrissy’s ass looks like a fucking dream when she’s wearing rollerskates. 

At least, that’s half the reason Eddie bothers to take her and Red to the skatepark on the weekends. Sometimes they convince him to skate with them, but he usually maintains that he's better off watching to make sure they don’t break themselves while rolling around. Max even likes to bring Hopper's kid with her sometimes (more like sneak actually, the girl pops out of fucking thin air) and that just adds to Eddie’s anxiety, frankly. The Chief would fry his ass if he found out his daughter got injured and he didn’t do jack shit to stop it, so there’s clearly a need for Eddie to stay the lookout. Inevitably one of those girls will fall, and Eddie’s in charge of having the first aid kit on hand. 

Chrissy is a lot better at cleaning cuts and putting bandages than he is though. She even gets the cute character prints that Max will grumble about wearing until El points out that the unicorn one on her elbow looks cool. Max will kinda smile, in that way where she wishes she wasn’t, and Eddie will watch her glare down at the band-aid box as she takes a few more home with her. And then she’ll glare at him because she’s probably required to do it or something. 

All of these skating trips they take eventually get out to those idiot sheep of his, and soon Will’s tagging along with his sister, then Lucas and Erica get wind of it from Max. Mike gets pissed that he wasn’t invited and then Dustin tags along to annoy the shit out of Eddie by picking apart the next campaign. Chrissy manages to sneak her little brother Curtis out of the house one day and then bam! Lo’ and behold, these little skate trips are now a bimonthly thing that they coordinate over walkie talkies, and because Eddie can only fit so many children in his child-unfriendly van, Harrington begrudgingly picks up the slack. With Harrington comes the rest of the breakfast club, (a term Eddie resents wholeheartedly) but he’s honestly grateful for the company, if only to keep track of all the gremlins running around. 

One scorching July day, Robin brings one of those big packs of double popsicles to the park with her. Everyone’s just lazing around under some trees or sitting on the benches, licking away when Robin nods at Chrissy. 

“You know, I never said it before but your roller skates are killer, babe.” 

Nancy nods. “Yeah those are absolutely adorable, Chrissy. Where’d you buy them?”

Chrissy lights up and scrambles to stand, rolling around while licking her orange popsicle.

“They’re nice right?! I got them on a discount and they fit perfectly. They’re also really functional too because some of the other skates don’t have good stopping mechanisms so it's a lot easier to… “ 

Robin smiles and nods while Nancy asks more questions. Chrissy continues to skate around happily, doing a couple twirls to demonstrate her agility.  Robin knocks Eddie out of his trance with a nudge of her leg. 

“I bet you love those little skates even more than she does, Munson.” 

Eddie tries to shove the girl off the bench but she’s laughing at him the whole time. 

Because he can’t exactly say no, can he?

Eddie’s eyes grew as wide as saucers as the moment he had feared the most was finally staring him in the face.

Kat’s features, however, clouded with rage. She started to get up, but he was quick to grab her arm and pull her back down to him.

“Kat, no, we have to lay low til they’re gone,” he whispered through his teeth.

“‘Til they’re gone?’ What? Are you crazy? I’m gonna take care of this prick. Eddie, let me go.”

“No! I’m not! Look! I know we’re easy targets here, but they are going to tear apart that house. It’s only a matter of time before one of their dumb asses realizes we’re probably here. So we just have to wait til they search, you hide us, and they’ll leave.”

Kat sighed as she slid back down beside him.

“They can’t find me. I can’t– I don’t even stand a chance…” he said, his voice breaking, lip trembling.

She turned to him and took his face between her hands. “Munson, you listen to me. Anyone, and I mean, anyone who tries to lay a finger on you… has to go through me first. Understand?”

Eddie glanced down and avoided eye contact with her. She shook his head, forcing his attention back to her.

“I said, do you understand?” she said seriously.

He reached for her hand, while leaning his head into the other. As he closed his eyes and sighed, he nodded. “Yeah, I do. It’s just, uh, it’s hard for me, ya know? You’re like… I mean besides Wayne. You’re the only one that’s, uh, that’s ever looked out for me.”

Kat softened at Eddie’s confession. “Well, someone has to look out for the little sheepies’ herder, don’t they?” she chuckled.

Some loud noises from inside the main house pulled them out of their tender moment.

“Shit,” Eddie mumbled before his face lit up with an idea. He gently moved Kat out of the way so he could reach the Walkie. He kept peeking out of the window as he spoke into it. “Hey, Dustin, you there? It’s Eddie. And Kat. You remember us, right? Hey, uh, if anyone’s there I really think we might be in a bit of trouble here, okay? Wheeler? Anybody?!”

“Eddie, hitting our only source of communication isn’t gonna make them respond. Where the hell are they?!” Kat spat.

“Great. Just great! We’re sitting ducks in here.”

Suddenly, Kat’s breath hitched. She reached to touch the back of her neck, feeling the goosebumps that had just formed.

“Kat? What is it? What are you, uh, picking up on?”

“Vecna. He’s getting ready.”

“Oh, goddamn it, man. Jesus Christ.”

“I don’t think I can find who it is in time and keep us safe too,” she said worriedly.

“M-maybe Jason will leave soon…”

– – – – – – – – – –

“What was that you said about Jason leaving soon?” Kat asked sarcastically.

“I mean, gotta kinda applaud his thoroughness.”

Kat shot Eddie a look. Even in the now darkness of the boathouse, he shut right up.

“Try Dustin again.”

“Dustin?” Eddie asked into the walkie talkie. “Please. Are… are you there? … Nevermind.” He then darted over to the boat.

“Eddie, what the hell are you doing?”

“The boat. As long as we get out far enough, then I can start this piece of shit, and we’ll be long gone by the time Jason realizes he was too stupid to look out here.”

“I don– Oh, fuck it. Let’s go.”

Swiftly, Eddie took the tarp off the boat and started to push it out of the boathouse.

“Ah!” Kat stumbled as the chime of a grandfather clock reverberated in her skull.

“Get in, I’ve got this,” Eddie reassured her. She nodded as she took his hand and got in the boat. Once she was hunkered down, she tuned out Eddie’s actions and felt a wave of intense energy hit her like a brick wall.

“It’s happening. He’s… Oh my god, there’s… The energy… There’s so much. It– It’s close,” Kat held her head as she tried to sort through it all and to not let this overwhelm her.

“Block him out. You gotta cloak yourself energetically like you do us visually,” Eddie instructed.

Kat paused and just looked at him for his genius suggestion.

“What?” he shrugged as pushed them away from the dock with an oar. “D&D is clearly useful in the real world.”

“Just shut up and row!”

Kat did as he suggested and tried to block the energy that wanted to consume her. She focused on forcing it away from her, but all the while, she felt like her battery was draining fast. With each passing second it was becoming more and more difficult to concentrate. Especially when she kept feeling it pull her toward the shore.

Despite how hard she was trying, the mix of everything happening around her, caused her powers to slip. Their location on the water was being revealed to Jason like there was a glitch in the matrix.

“Holy shit. Hey, freaks!” Jason yelled. “Where do you think you’re going?”

Slowly Eddie turned around to look at Jason and then he looked at Kat whose eyes were now laser focused on the jock. Another chime sounded in Kat’s ears. “Shit,” Eddie muttered.

“It’s him. The next–”

Patrick… Kat heard him call out to the boy beside Jason.

Eddie quickly got around Kat and began frantically pulling the starter for the boat. “Just, come on… you… piece… of shit!” he said emphatically with each pull.

All the while Jason and his friend, who Kat assumed was named Patrick now that she could hear Vecna loud and clear in her head, were getting undressed to swim after them. The boat’s engine only sputtered.

“Come on. Gotta help me out here, man,” Eddie pleaded with the inanimate object beneath him. The engine revved, but stopped just short of coming to life. “Come on. Come on, you piece of shit! Kat, a little help here? Kat? Jason’s literally running into the water! So, gonna guess he sees us! Goddamn it!” He yelled as he hit the engine one last time for good measure. “Nope? Okay. All right. Okay. ‘Scuse me,” he muttered breathlessly as he stumbled to the front of the boat, picking up an oar and started rowing them away as fast as he could from their two assailants.

Kat was still reeling from the energy amping up around her. She was trying to separate herself from it, but the more she tried, the less control she had. Every time she attempted to focus on herself and her own energy, she could barely even find it.

Chime.

Her fists balled up beside her. Her chest swelled. She pulled up energy from below and as she threw her arms out, releasing energy from her hands, she shouted, “Stop!”

Eddie almost dropped the oar in the water, but he brought it into the boat as he turned around to face her.

Jason had a smirk on his face. “Finally giving up, Freaks?” he said as he kept swimming.

Patrick had a blank stare as he stopped swimming and looked off somewhere far away.

“Hey, stay back, man! Stay back!” Eddie shouted as he started swinging the oar toward Jason who relentlessly charged on.

“Hey, come on, let’s go! We almost have him!” Jason called to his devotee. He stopped swimming and turned to look at him when he realized Patrick had stopped and wasn’t responding.

Kat stood up and went to the edge of the boat. “Patrick! Patrick, focus on my voice! Whatever you’re seeing isn’t real,” she stressed.

Chime.

“Goddamn it!” Kat cried. She turned to look desperately at Eddie. “I can’t stop him, Eddie, I can’t–”

“Hey, Patrick? Patrick!” Jason quickly turned away from his friend to face Kat. “You! You’re doing this aren’t you!”

“Jason, just shut the hell up! Do you not see he’s in danger?!” Kat screeched.

Kat could hear Vecna’s snarl. Even though it was distorted, she knew it was him.

“What are you–” Jason started to respond, but stopped short when Patrick vanished. Something had pulled him under the water. “I should… I should’ve known it wasn’t Munson. He– he’s all talk, but… But you, Kat… Patrick! Hey, Patrick!”

“I won’t let you get away with this!” Kat yelled down to the water.

The only thing Eddie and Jason could hear was the sound of the water. Kat, on the other hand, heard Vecna’s sinister laugh.

Without warning, Patrick shot back out of the water. Jason could only watch, too terrified to utter a single sound. Eddie was so stunned as he watched the boy floating above the water that he started to step backwards. His motion caused the boat to rock side to side. He didn’t realize when he was close to the edge of the boat until his calves hit it. The momentum of the top of half of his body toppled him overboard.

Jason watched what happened to Chrissy happen to his teammate.

Once Eddie surfaced from the water, he looked up in horror as he had to watch the most gruesome and grotesque thing he’s ever seen happen to someone. Again. He couldn’t do anything, but gasp as he waded in the dark water.

Kat didn’t hear Eddie fall into the water. She didn’t even hear Patrick’s bones breaking. Only one voice echoed loudly, just for her ears.

Then join me, Katrina… Patrick already has…

“NO!” Kat screamed. At the sound of her voice, Jason whipped his head back around to witness what Kat was fully capable of.

She stood up and steadied the still rocking boat with the energy pouring out of her left hand. Her right hand flew out, casting energy around Eddie. As her arm rose into the air, he did too. Kat lifted him out of the water and guided him back into the boat, where he landed with a thud on his back.

The clamorous sounds that had clouded Kat’s thoughts ceased the instant Patrick’s contorted, dead body hit the water with a splash. Her breathing was labored and angry.

Jason slowly turned around to face the couple in the boat. “Y-you. It was you. You– You’re… You’re the devil!” he cried out.

“Jason, I am not the enemy here. I can’t… I couldn’t stop what happened to Patrick. I’m not strong enough. If I was, Chrissy would still be alive and this never would have happened!”

“It was you! You killed her! Didn’t you?! You killed my Chrissy!”

“No… I… didn’t!” she bellowed.

Her anger and grief took control of her actions. She reached her hand out and held it as if she was actually holding Jason’s throat. Slowly she applied pressure and began to close it. Jason thrashed in the water. He gasped for air while trying to claw at his own neck in hopes of stopping whatever was suffocating him.

In a panic, Eddie got up and inched toward Kat. She was too focused on Jason to notice him beside her. Calmly he placed his hand on her outstretched arm. Her head immediately turned to him as soon as she felt the contact. He continued to slide his hand down her arm until it was covering hers.

“Kat, he isn’t worth it,” Eddie whispered softly.

With an angry huff she let her hand fall to her side. She turned to look up at Eddie. His left hand tightly gripping her jacket was the only sign of distress he showed. He was anchoring himself to her. Even though he was calmly talking her off the ledge she was on, he was still reeling from witnessing Vecna take another victim. His other hand squeezed her arm firmly enough to bring her focus back to the present moment. “Good girl,” he breathed into her ear when he felt the tension in her muscle wane under his hold.

“Are... are you gonna kill me?” Jason gasped hoarsely, staring up at them from the lake in fear.

“Not if you let me and Eddie leave.”

Jason opened his mouth like he was about to say something and then quickly shut it. After a huff, he pointed at them and shouted, “This isn’t over!” before he swam towards the shore.

“No, it’s not,” Kat said quietly as she sat down. She wiped the blood from her nose before grabbing an oar.

“Hey, I’ve got this. Let me. I know another place we can hide,” Eddie said as he gently took the oar from Kat. She nodded and got up to sit on the seat closer to the engine. He took her place in the center of the row boat. As Eddie looked ahead to steer, she bit down on her bottom lip. She turned away from Eddie, in case he glanced back at her, so he wouldn’t see the silent tears that started to stream down her face.

Halloween Night at Freddy’s (Pizzaplex) [Act Finale]

Prequel fic to Christmas With A Freddy by ShadowBelle23 (Me) on AO3.

Since Evan is now being called Dave. I know that some people think that Cassidy is the crying child and Afton’s son while Dave is the fifth victim of Afton. No, it’s vice versa because of Princess Quest.

Since there’s already a living child character in this fanfic called Dave, I’ll leave the name Evan alone. Also, I wrote this fanfic a year ago and I’m going through it now to polish it up compared to the original AO3 post.

————————————————————-

*Earlier*

Max and Dave were indeed nervous. They stood by Freddy’s room as Gregory and Crystal held his hands. “I wish you luck down there,” Freddy tells them. “It’s not very safe, but I trust you can handle yourselves.”

“We got this!” Max says and summons Ro-bow via teleportation. His appearance made Gregory smile in awe.

“Don’t worry, Freddy. I’ll make sure Vanny won’t touch them,” Ro-bow tells him reassuringly. Gregory gives Max his novelty Fazwatch. “I don’t know if the walkie-talkies will reach you underground. But I know this will. If you get in trouble, you can summon Freddy to you with it.”

Max then takes the watch and puts it on. He and Dave get a good luck hug from Freddy before heading to the underground. Then Freddy goes back to his room with Gregory and Crystal.

Rachel, stood in Gator Golf alone like she was supposed to. “Look alive and helpless people. We have exactly until six AM to catch Vanny. And we mustn’t waste a single hour from the nine we have,” Rachel says. “If we don’t see or hear from her in two hours, we will hunt her if we have to. We must make this night count.”

“10-4,” Isabel says. Rachel knows it’s her usher habit kicking in from using a walkie-talkie. Then the others copy her statement. Now, they wait.

With Max again. He, Dave, and Ro-bow had started looking underground for Onesie. So far, they’ve found broken STAFF bots, a bunch of miscellaneous things too, and a bunch of boxes filled with who knows what. They did find Onesie’s “bed” during their search, but no trace of her in it.

“Where is she?” Max ponders worriedly.

“It’s okay, maybe she’s around somewhere,” Dave tells him. Then they stumble across an offline animatronic dog. Not anthropomorphic. It’s small and about the size of a beagle. With its color palette being grayish-brown. His head is large and triangular with a sloped forehead, having long snout with a big nose, a gaping wide mouth filled with sharp fangs, pointed ears, and yellow piercing eyes. He has his matted fur missing in places, revealing the tarnished metal underneath a couple of wires sticking from his ears, and one large hole in his belly opening his stomach cavity, which houses a primitive circuit board. He wears a blue collar with a dog tag, Dave looks at it and it reads "Fetch".

“Not Onesie, but I hope we’re close,” Dave says and gently pets the offline dog. “I hope she’s alright.”

“I’m sure she is. She’s just hidden in this underground labyrinth of hallways,” Ro-bow assures him. They kept looking but they just kept coming across a lot of dead ends. Both Max and Dave were starting to get worried.

“Where is she?” Max ponders. “I thought she would be down here.”

“Me too. Maybe she’s somewhere else,” Dave says. As he approached a wall to lean on, he fell through it like a ghost with a scream.

“Dave!” Max and Ro-bow exclaim.

“Are you okay?” Max asks worriedly.

“Yeah!” Dave says assuringly and walks through the wall to return to them. “It’s a hidden doorway cloaked with illusion magic of some sort. It’s empty inside.”

Max and Ro-bow enter with Dave. Indeed, it was space-wise. But many things filled it. Like one of the charging pods for the Glamrock animatronics. But it was painted on in purple, with words, warnings of ‘Do Not Open’ and such. It even had purple smoke spewing from the bottom.

“What… what is that?” Ro-bow then wondered. Dave sees a light switch and they see a light turn on above a wall. On it was a large graffiti painting of a man in purple wearing a yellow rabbit costume holding a knife covered in blood with six children's corpses surrounding him. Their faces are covered by a mask of a familiar animatronic, even the Marionette. Above and under the mural, words were written; YOU CAN’T ESCAPE US WILLIAM AFTON!!!

“Well hello boys,” a creepy voice was heard from behind them. They turned around to see Vanny enter the room. “Thank you for finding my master for me. Those old bucket heads have kept him well hidden down here for a very long time. And since you have done the dirty work to find him, I’ll have to repay you for your kindness…” then takes a knife out from behind her. “In death!”

She raises her arm holding the knife. Before Max and Ro-bow got the chance to retaliate, they heard something coming before tackling Vanny to the ground.

“Good boy, Fetch!” Dave exclaims happily, cheering for the animatronic. Dave and Max hear their phones go off and see a text message from… Fetch?

‘U OK?’ It reads.

“Yeah, thanks for saving us, Fetch,” Max says gratefully.

*Ding* ‘NP ;) So, should I kill her for you, my masters?’.

“No!” Dave tells the dog. “And please, don’t call us your masters. I’m Dave, the other boy is Max. And Robin Hood over there is Ro-bow.”

*Ding* ‘Nice to meet you’.

“Get off of me, you stupid mutt!” Vanny yells which earned her a mechanical growling from Fetch.

Then they heard footsteps, “guys?” Max asks and hopes it is their friends to aid them. Alas, it was not. Just an army of endoskeletons. “Fetch, defend Dave. Attack endoskeletons,” Max commands Fetch. He barks in response, gladly jumping onto an endoskeleton and attacking it. Its teeth tearing into the metal like beef jerky.

Ro-bow starts shooting arrows at them and Max activates his Portal Master abilities while protecting and shielding Dave. Dave finds a metal pipe to use as a weapon, sure, it’s ineffective against the endoskeleton’s bodies but not the face like the eyes. Quickly he wraps twine around it and ties it on to have a grip on the pipe.

He starts swinging the pipe at the animatronics’ faces and Fetch tackles them to rip them apart. “Thanks, Fetch,” Dave says. As they continued fighting, Max tried to contact Freddy, but the watch wasn’t working. “What’s wrong with this thing?” Max asks in frustration.

“What’s wrong kiddo?” Vanny asks with a little cackle. “Having problems calling SOS?”

“I’m detecting an EMP on her,” Ro-Bow announces. “We’re on our own.”

“What do we do?” Dave then asks. “If we stay, who knows how many more of those endoskeletons will be coming? We’ll tire out and she’ll get whatever’s in the capsule. If we leave, she still wins.”

“Sadly we have to leave,” Max says. “We have to warn the others.”

“Warn them all you want. They will die and animatronics will rise to slaughter humanity and take over,” Vanny cackles. “There’s no savior for humanity.”

Max scoffs. “Vanny, there’s a lot you don’t know about us. Believe me, your plan will fail,” he says. They trashed enough endoskeletons and made their leave through the open exit.

As they made their way out, they ended up bumping into their friends as they went up the steps. “What happened?” Rachel asks.

“Lots. It’s bad. In short; I think Vanny just unleashed a bad man from a prison to keep him in,” Dave says. The group moves away from the staircase to let them up.

“Okay. That’s simple, we clobber both and it’s done,” Rachel shrugs.

“They have an army of endoskeletons,” Max adds.

“I’ve dealt with Badniks bigger than that,” Isabel then shrugs. Then their walkie-talkies went off.

“Guys, something is wrong with the STAFF bots,” they heard Elliott’s voice cry worriedly over it. So they go to find him. And they witness seeing the STAFF bots pull themselves apart. On purpose. While Elliott is destroying the STAFF bots with a pink and white Freddy and a fox animatronic. A blue bunny puppet on the right hand of the Freddy. They destroy the STAFF bots like an infestation of roaches.

“Elliott, what’re you doing?!” Gin cries out.

“No time to explain! Start destroying as many of the bots as quickly as you can!” Elliott says.

“Why?” Gin then asks. The pink and white Freddy then points with his Bonnie hand to a group of STAFF bots assembling themselves into one being. Like “The Blob 2.0”.

“That’s why!” The Freddy says in stress. “And how I could tell what they’re doing is, to put it short, I experienced a “been there-done that” moment before exactly like that. But they’re infected with a virus that’s making them do this.”

The group looks at each other. Isabel then destroys the progress on the Blob STAFF bots using her Chaos abilities while destroying the rest. Now the bots were attacking them rather than disassembling and reassembling themselves into one.

“Guys,” the pink Freddy then says urgently. Probably communicating with someone. “Vanny has unleashed Afton. I repeat, Vanny has unleashed Afton. Code Purple.” Then he continues smashing STAFF bots with the group and the pink fox.

“So, which one of you troublemakers got Vanny to find Afton?” The pink fox then asks the group of humans.

“That would be me, my friend Dave, and Ro-Bow,” Max says in shame. “We went down there to find Onesie.” Then he looks at Pink Freddy. “Also, aren’t you The Blob?!”

“No!!!” The bear says offended, facing Max as his faceplate starts clicking from being open a little and coming back to close. “Just because the abomination has a duplicate of my handsome and charming face doesn’t mean I am that thing. I have no relation to it. Second, Onesie doesn’t need you two in her life. What you did was reckless and now look where it got us!”

“Well excuse me!” Max sounds offended with sarcasm, now confronting the bear. “I didn’t know there was a serial killer locked away in the Megaplex’s basement! Maybe you should have put a notice down there! Or have provided better security!”

“We didn’t need it because we thought no one but Vanny would go down there to find him! And if you weren’t looking for Onesie, none of this would have happened!” Freddy then argues, his faceplates now clicking more aggressively.

“I was just trying to be a good friend!” Max counters. “She seemed upset and I just wanted to help!”

“She doesn’t need help! She’s fine with us as it is! And since when did you humans care about us machines anyway?! Last I remember, humans would give me and my animatronic family controlled shocks daily without hesitation or concern!” Freddy then continues, his faceplates close to swinging fully open.

“FOR THE LOVE OF-!!!” Isabel rages, sounding very angry, then turns to Max and Freddy. “Funtime Freddy! Last I recall, I’m very capable of handling myself and if I need help or not! You don’t get to decide my choices for me of what I do and don’t want! Also, apologize to me and my friends immediately! How dare you insult us humans saying we only intend on hurting you when you tried to murder a teenager you hypocrite bear?!”

Thankfully they have trashed the STAFF bots that were in the area so everyone could react. So far, everyone but Isabel was shocked by what just happened. But Isabel was angry that her face turned a pretty shade of red.

“O-onesie?!” Funtime Freddy stammers in shock from discovering the truth and Isabel nods. Now his faceplates stay closed, like his emotions recoiling from Isabel’s outburst. “You’re a human?!” She then nods again.

“As much as we want to ask questions, we now have two evil rabbits running around doing who knows what,” the blue Bonnie then says, recovering from the sudden emotional shock from Isabel’s outburst. “So, can we get back to that and worry about this later?”

“Bon-Bon’s right, Freddy,” Isabel tells the pink and white bear. “So save whatever questions you have until this is all over. For now, this is what we do.” Then speaks through her walkie-talkie. “Freddy, Roxy, Chica, Monty, meet us at the front entrance. Sun, take Gregory to safety in our suite. We need our Crystal back.”

“10-4, Superstars,” Glamrock Freddy responds.

“10-4,” Sun then says.

“I’m staying with you guys,” Dave says and looks at his pipe for a weapon. “But I can’t do much with this.”

“Here, let me see,” Rachel says and Dave hands it to her. “Upgraded,” casting a Tech spell on the object. Then Jamie added his own. “Enchanted Durability.” The pipe changes from the transformation, making it more weapon-like than a piece of junk thrown together into one.

They then hear barking as more animatronics show up, coming running to them. “It’s okay, these guys are cool,” Funtime Freddy assures the humans. “They’re my friends.”

“There’s more of you guys?!” Gin asks in shock.

“Yeah, ancestors of Freddy’s. But we don’t have time to explain,” a brown Freddy with red rosies on its face tells them. Then the Glamrocks show up with Crystal.

“Gregory is safe with Sun,” Glamrock Freddy tells the group. Then the Glamrocks look at the predecessor animatronics in awe. “Are you guys…?”

“Yes, they are,” Max assures him. “We’ll get to introductions later. I get it, we did a bad thing, we’ll fix it and get Afton back into his “Pandora’s Box” and stop Vanny too.”

“Speaking of Afton,” the black and white puppet animatronics says. Then once they said that, everyone felt the ground shake in slight tremors.

“What… was that???” Jamie then asks. More of the ground shook until they saw a large fist punch a hole in the wall before multiple hands tore it apart. Coming through the wall is DJ Music Man, its eyes purple instead of black with Afton and Vanny riding on its head. Holding onto the headband to the headphones it wore.

“Here’s Afton!!!” a male voice singsonged menacingly. They assumed it was the amalgamation creature with Vanny on the DJ’s head. Afton is a combination of animatronic and human, very disgusting, rotting, and corpse-like. “Now here’s some familiar faces I know. All together in one place; the originals, the toys, as well as my dear Circus animatronics. Welcome home, my pets. Welcome home!”

None of them looked pleased to see him. “You seem to keep getting more uglier every time we meet, Mr. Afton. Or should I call you Burntrap now?” the puppet says in disgust to Afton. “Seriously though, has surviving two buildings on fire not been enough for you to get the hint you should just give up?! Or is what you call your brain too fried to care?!”

Afton, now Burntrap, laughs menacingly. “Oh dear sweet Charlie, you always had your daddy’s witted tongue. I have to admit, he is a clever man, he is. It’s a shame he died without knowing his plan failed, which makes him a fool as well!” Then an army of endoskeletons and STAFF bots show up and surround the group.

“He was your friend! He trusted you! He cared for you!” The puppet, AKA Charlie spits at him, the insult towards her deceased father riled her.

“That was his mistake!” Afton yells at the puppet. “Your father could have never seen the potential I saw! He only cared about making children happy including you, the precious daughter of his! Disgusting! Emotions of kindness and happiness are pathetic and make people soft! Fear and terror are strong! They can control and conquer anything!”

“You’re wrong, Afton!” Charlie says to him. “Murder and domination are not justified. Sure, you got what you wanted; immortality. But I still see the same monster that took many children’s lives in the past years ago, including mine. You can spread your fear and terror all you want, it may be strong to you, but it just comes to show how far of a person you have become. You’re nothing more than a shadow of yourself. You could have been a loving father, a caring friend, and a good husband. But you threw it all away while everyone you know is dead. Now, we’re here to clean up the mess you’ve created and to end your reign forever.”

“Big talk for a little girl,” Afton chuckles darkly. “I know you’re scared of me. Because if you weren’t, you would have done me in years ago rather than now.”

This time, Charlie laughs, but it is in amusement. “Oh, I’m not scared. I wasn’t then and I wasn’t now. I was just letting karma roll its punches before I stepped into the ring. Now it’s my turn, and I will make my daddy proud,” Charlie declared before her form started to change into her Nightmarionne form. “I will be your waking nightmare!” Then lunges at Afton, knocking him off DJ Music Man’s head. Thankfully the animatronic no longer suffered from the virus once Afton was off.

The battle then has begun. The Portal Masters activated their forms and changed outfits. Fighting the endoskeletons alongside the animatronics. The original Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy changed into their nightmare forms too, which was a huge advantage in the battle.

As they fought, Rachel noticed Isabel targeting Vanny and her only. She couldn’t help but overhear their conversation, and it was kinda hard to with how loud Isabel can be.

“Vanny, you and I have done the same song and dance for many months now. And this time I’m very serious, why did you kidnap me and put Remnant in my head?!” Isabel demands. “Because of you, I can’t ever dream again when I sleep! I’m always awake whether as a human or animatronic! You took away my joy of sleeping!

“Well, if you want to know that badly… sure,” Vanny evilly chuckles as she nimbly avoids Isabel’s blade. “Before the puppet interrupted my plan. I was going to kill your human body while your conscious mind was in the animatronic. Then infect you with the Glitchtrap virus, and make you gain the other animatronics’ trust-“ but she got interrupted by Isabel putting a hand to Vanny’s neck.

“You were gonna use me as a Trojan horse?!” She exclaims angrily.

“Well, I’m glad you saved me the trouble anyway without the virus. You gained their trust just like I wanted you to, then we’ll infect them as well and kill your friends. Afton will win and humanity will fall,” Vanny cackles.

Isabel rolls her eyes from her annoying statement and Chaos Blasts Vanny against a wall. Thankfully Vanny’s costume suit was thick enough to take the brunt of the attack. But it did make her feel dazed. “Spider Rope,” Isabel casts, and Vanny’s body becomes tied up in thick magic rope-like webbing, constricting her movements for any chance to escape.

“Just to let you know, your ordinary knife won’t be able to cut yourself free,” Isabel says, seeing Vanny at least attempt to free herself. Then sees Funtime Freddy confront her after breaking an endoskeleton.

“You became Onesie against your will?” He asks curiously, which makes Isabel realize he overheard.

“Yes,” Isabel says gently as she slashes some endoskeletons in half with her sword while protecting Vanny from harm. “I understand if you’re mad at me, you have the right to be. I kept the secret from you and the others. But Charlie and Goldie wanted me to not tell you all to protect myself.”

“They knew as well?” Freddy then asks, destroying another endoskeleton.

“Yes, because they saved me from Vanny and took my Onesie body as I fled,” Isabel continues. “I never wanted to hurt you or your friends in any way. I understand you’re skeptical towards humans and I won’t deny you the right to be. But I continued being Onesie for you guys, your dad is a heartless jerk. No one should be his puppet, not even you. You guys deserve better, even freedom. Now let’s get this over with and we can continue talking later.”

Funtime Freddy nods as they break more endoskeletons together.

Currently with Burntrap and Charlie, the prior is getting himself beaten by Charlie’s advantage in her nightmare form. His body and face get whipped by the three long tendrils that make up half of Charlie’s arms to the elbow. And her skinny body while being ten feet tall makes it hard for Afton to hit her.

“What’s the matter, Burntrap? Scared of a little girl?!” Charlie says in a slightly sarcastic mocking tone. Amused that Burntrap is failing so hard.

“No! Why would I be?!” Burntrap huffs in frustration before getting slapped in the face by her tendrils.

“Ooh, someone is being a big liar,” Charlie chuckles in amusement as she can feel his fear. “You know, this form isn’t just for looks, I can sense the fear and dread coursing through you like vampires can sense people’s heartbeats. I’m not stupid to know that you’re terrified of me, Mr. Afton. You’re terrified that the sweet, innocent little girl you once took the life from, outside in the rain, has now become this. That your prey has turned tables and now has become your predator. Isn’t that right?”

Mr. Afton backs up from Charlie’s statement, bumping into Golden Freddy as the empty suit is now standing. Goldie grabs Afton harshly, keeping him from escaping.

“K-k-karma has done its w-w-work. Now it’s our turn to play with you!” Golden Freddy says it’s voice sputtering in glitches.

“No! NO!” Mr. Afton shouts, now they can hear the slight terror in his voice. “Look at you! Look at the nasty thing that you have become! Look how small you are! How worthless you are! You are wretched little beasts! I created you!”

Charlie and Goldie look at each other and shake their heads from that pathetic statement. Then they heard the sound of a gun being shot before Afton got electrocuted. Thankfully Goldie doesn’t have to worry since they’re immune to it and let Afton fall. They looked to see a man with rotting purplish skin wearing old tattered clothes. Its eyes are completely black except for the tiny white light in each of its eye sockets. Just like Goldie and Charlie. The man holds a taser gun while having an angry look on his face.

“I knew you would come back,” the man says. The battle stops as all STAFF bots and endoskeletons are destroyed. Monty then grabs Vanny from the floor but both humans and animatronics are shocked to see a living corpse of a human.

“What’s… happening?” Jamie asks curiously. Then sees Isabel smirking alongside Funtime Freddy and the Circus animatronics.

“Just watch,” Isabel assures Jamie.

They watch as Afton gets up, groaning in pain as the corpse continues holding the taser gun at him. Goldie and Charlie watch him to make sure he doesn’t try to run. “Hello Dad, didn’t expect to see me did you?” The corpse says to Afton.

“M-Mike, my boy, a little too old for temper tantrums now are we?” Afton stutters, now sounding hopeful. Reaching a hand towards his son Mike swats it harshly in retaliation.

“I’m not your boy anymore, Dad,” Mike says firmly. “And thanks to you, I’m now a walking skin suit. I went down there at the Rental to find Elizabeth like you asked and I did. In return, the Circus animatronics tricked me, gut my insides out like a pumpkin and they combined themselves to become Ennard so they could escape the underground facility inside my body. Now I’m here to make you pay for what you did.”

“Why don’t you make them pay instead?” Afton says, gesturing to the Circus animatronics which were now frowning at him.

“Because they remind me of the people I love most since you based them off of our family. Ballora is mom, Circus Baby is Elizabeth, Funtime Freddy is Evan, and I’m Funtime Foxy. They may be a bit twisted and crazy, but I love them as equally as I do my mother and siblings,” Mike says, his voice going soft as he doesn’t stop giving his father dirty looks. “Unlike you, my father died long ago before you met your demise in Spring Bonnie’s suit to become Springtrap. And now that they have you, I’ll let them decide on what to do with you.”

Then he steps back and away while still keeping his taser pointed at his dad. “We’re keeping him alive,” Charlie declares. “As much as it pains us spirits not going into the afterlife. It’s more worth it to see him suffer.”

“What he did to us, is not d-d-death. But it’s exactly what he deserves,” Goldie states. “Because death is what he wants and we won’t g-g-give him it.”

Isabel then steps forward. “Just keeping him alive isn’t enough as a punishment for what he put you through,” she gently says to them before casting a curse spell;

“Beware the Reaper's Curse, a grim spell I weave,

To haunt the living, no respite they'll receive.

Survivors of death, eternal torment they'll bear,

No solace in life, but death's release they'll share.”

Magic runes appear on Afton’s body and he begins to agonize in pain. Even being vocal about it.

“Yes, that’s good enough for us,” Goldie nods in approval. “I’ll take him back to his prison.” Then grabs Afton and teleports away. Mike puts away the taser and the Circus animatronics go to give him apology hugs.

“Now, another thing,” Isabel adds, seeing Vanny being held by Monty. She then waves Funtime Freddy over. He comes willingly and he opens a hatch in his arm. And Isabel grabs a blue star power ring from it including a tiny handheld device and a cord. She finds a USB port in Vanny’s costume head and attaches the handheld device to it using the cord. With the blue star power ring, she puts it into the device to power it.

“Let’s get rid of that nasty Glitchtrap virus,” Isabel continues. A “download” bar is on the screen, the percentage went high quickly until a beep was heard. Isabel unplugged the cord from the head and took off the costume head.

“There, you’re free now. You have no reason to do his bidding anymore,” Isabel says. Under the costume is a blonde-haired woman with bags under her eyes like she barely slept. “It’s Security Guard Vanessa!” Glamrock Freddy says in awe.

Everyone gives the woman space as Isabel helps her out of the suit. Thankfully Vanessa is wearing clothes underneath it. “So, what do you want me to explain?” Isabel asked.

“Anything,” Rachel admits. “Because my mind is trying to piece things together like someone explaining the plot to The Godfather rather than me watching it.”

“Alright, I’ll start with my situation as short as possible,” Isabel sighs. “Months ago during the summer, I was out with Bocoe and Decoe. We came across the store manager at this place, they saw Bocoe and Decoe and asked if they could do some maintenance work around here. I allowed it and the boys agreed. Fast forward, the boys are doing their work here and I had to use the bathroom. Vanny catches me off guard and chloroforms me. I wake up underground on a cot next to a humanoid animatronic body that’s Onesie.” Isabel takes a deep breath and continues.

“And I also wake up to a splitting head pain to find out my head was cut open. I didn’t know why until Marionette and Golden Freddy saved me. Then later I discovered that Vanny put Remnant in my head, and well, you get the gist.”

“Why didn’t you tell us? We could have helped you,” Elliott asked.

“I didn’t want to worry about you guys, besides, this was my problem,” Isabel says which her friends either facepalmed or took a deep breath in.

“Izzy, you’re our friend. If a problem happens to one of us, we deal with it together as friends,” Jamie tells her. “I still remember when you were stressed about the Chaos Emeralds, I wished you come to ask us for help.”

Isabel sighs as she looks at the floor. “Now I wish I did. I’m sorry for not asking for help then and now. This all could have been avoided tonight if I told you guys my problems rather than handle it myself.”

“But you become Onesie when you sleep?” Rachel asks.

“So, I don’t know why that’s a thing,” Isabel admits, then looks at Vanessa.

“I don’t know why either,” Vanessa admits. “It was my Vanny persona’s idea anyway. She preferred not to share anything with me. But I believe she was trying to experiment with Remnant’s effects on humans. I’m sorry for the pain I had inflicted upon you, Isabel. I tried to stop her but Vanny was too devoted to Afton to care about other people.”

“It’s okay if I hadn’t. I wouldn’t have helped you and the other animatronics anyway. I’m glad to be your friend, Vanessa,” Isabel admits to the blonde, and they hug.

“Then what’s their story then?” Rachel asks Isabel.

“That is… something that will have to wait another day. Their story is too long to cut short but to start. When William Afton was a human, long ago in the 1980’s. He murdered six children; Charlie, Gabriel, Jeremy, Susie, Fritz, and Cassidy. Everyone but Charlie got their bodies stuffed in an animatronic suit. And their spirits have possessed them since then. Circus Baby has Elizabeth Afton’s spirit possessing her and Golden Freddy is sharing Evan’s with Cassidy,” Isabel starts.

“I see, so you guys were trying to keep him from murdering any more kids,” Amelia says in understanding.

“We should start getting this place cleaned up,” Vanessa says. “You guys created quite a mess.”

“I’ll go get Sun and Gregory,” Elliott says and runs to their suite. Thankfully with the combination of teamwork and magic, it was like the battle with Afton never happened.

Also, Isabel surprised them with a menu bunch of pastries and treats that got delivered to their suite before the megaplex closed. Even allowing the animatronics to eat some, Vanessa and Gregory too.

“So, you’re a zombie?” Gin asks Mike.

“I guess you could say that. Or a lich,” Mike responds casually.

The Freddy’s got talking including the Bonnies, Chicas, and Foxys. Marionette/Charlie and Sun talked while playing with Crystal, Gregory, Ro-Bow, Max, and Dave.

“It’s interesting to see a wolf Foxy, love the hair,” Funtime Foxy compliments Roxy.

Roxy chuckles. “Thank you,” she says bashfully. “How come you and Toy Foxy look alike?” The two pink and white foxes look at each other and shrug unknowingly as to why. Mangle/Toy Foxy was no longer the rearranging amalgamation she once was, now standing on two feet like her counterparts.

“Darling, call me Mangle,” Toy Foxy tells Roxy kindly.

“Mangle, why?” Roxy asks curiously. And Mangle chuckles before explaining; “kids treated me like a toy. Pulled me apart and rearranged me. It got so bad, that the technicians gave up. I’m glad Charlie put me back together again.”

“Me too,” Roxy says, sounding grateful. “I’m just gonna say that you two look like siblings due to designing laziness.”

“I’m fine with that,” Funtime Foxy says, and Mangle nods.

Toy Bonnie then talks to Glamrock Freddy. “Where’s your Bonnie?” He asks curiously. Glamrock Freddy shrugs, “he’s been missing for a long time now.”

“Not anymore,” Charlie says as they overhear their conversation. “I found your Bonnie. I’m currently in the finishing stage of fixing him. You’ll have your Bonnie back.”

Glamrock Freddy hugs Charlie. “Thank you!” He says happily. Charlie returns the hug with Lefty joining in.

Midnight then strikes the clock and the ghosts of the dead children emerge from the animatronic bodies to play. Evan and Elizabeth float to their brother Mike and they hug happily as they’re reunited.

“They look so happy even in death,” Dave says and Max nods.

“I think they’re just happy knowing Afton can’t hurt anybody else,” Max adds.

“That, and Mr. Afton underestimated the value of friendship and kindness,” Ro-Bow adds too.

“I agree,” Cassidy says. “As long as there is light, there will always be people who will stand up against his darkness.”

Isabel is sitting down on a chair as Dr. Krankcase and Mags are summoned to do a check-up on her head. “I can feel the Remnant device under your skin,” Dr. Krankcase says. “We can have this removed tomorrow, but you’re gonna have to stay awake during the procedure.”

“As long as it’s out of my head, I’m okay with that,” Isabel smiles.

“And we also have to remove all your hair,” Mags adds with bad news and Isabel sighs sadly.

“Well, that’s fine too, hair can grow back,” she admits.

“And we’ll be there with you,” Rachel adds. She, Isabel, Jamie and Crystal hug.

“Thanks, guys,” Isabel smiles. “You know, I’ve been thinking. These animatronics need a forever home, they’ve had a history of misery for a long time and no one has given them anything. Since I have nine and three-quarters of treasure chests full, I think I should steal a page out of Eggman’s book and make an amusement park home for anyone who wants to live in Skylands. Sure, the Academy is quite large but I don’t want to overcrowd it.”

“Where are you thinking to build it?” Jamie asks.

“Probably at Dr. Krankcase’s old lab. We can tear it down and remake a new one when I decide where to put it,” Isabel says. “And you guys can help too since my problem is your problem now.”

“That’s a wonderful idea, I’m sure Master Eon would agree to that,” Rachel chuckles. “Happy Halloween guys.” Then the Portal Masters group hug together.

*Elsewhere in the depths of the megaplex*

A different creature stalks its caged area. Wanting a way out. “I-I’m Gregory,” a glitchy mechanical voice says. “I-I-I’m Greg-g-gory.” Then the being gave it one more shot. “I’m Gregory.” Now mimicking the boy perfectly.

The Guardians: Part 7 - This is Quarmby

In this episode the resistance group Quarmby once again ramp up their effort to sabotage the status quo by hijacking broadcasts to criticise the regime and set up a protest to get everyone to turn up late for work by five minutes. It feels curiously contemporary because of course these are exactly hot subjects in terms of what we would now call misinformation and disinformation on social media and in news media. This is particularly of relevance because some of the broadcasts talk about rigged elections. The episode shows the problems of information to extend from the top to the bottom of society, including things being kept from the Prime Minister.

The political subject for this episode is therefore about intelligence, misinformation, propaganda and the control of 'the masses'. The techniques used to identify the location of the broadcasts are very much in line with the preoccupation with technology seen in so much contemporary television, and you can see something similar in many a TV show of the time (I think there are episodes of The Professionals and possibly The Sweeney off hand, which reflect very much the same subject).

Brilliantly, the show makes a connection with the TV licence detector vans used at the time to detect households watching TV without a licence so that a fine could be imposed. In the sixties and seventies there were some very Big Brother public service announcements used to indicate that they could tell when you were changing your socks and would be straight on to you. What the show does brilliantly is turn the existing repute of these vans round to have the PM say that far from merely collecting data on TV viewing, they were actually used to collect other intelligence on the population, brilliantly building on a real thing. In fact of course there have also been ongoing rumours that these vans were actually completely empty and were merely used for the fear and to transport the inspectors who visited homes without licenses who were the actual means of finding out who was watching TV without a licence. As far as I can tell the actual evidence is inconclusive and suggests that at various times and places some vans had technology to detect TV viewing and at others they were used to transport the inspectors.

I'm a bit ambivalent about the five-minutes-late protest because it suggests it was merely to demonstrate that Quarmby could get the populace to do things: I really don't think getting the entire population to turn up five minutes late would bring the country to its knees.

In another slight change of consistency, this episode misses out all the human interest and is much more purely political in its discussion.

The chief problem with this episode is that while the Quarmby group are intended to be resisting an illegitimate, oppressive regime, the broadcasts are rather reminiscent of Lord Haw-Haw's wartime misinformation broadcasts, which makes it quite confusing. This can tend to increase the viewer's sympathy for the unelected ruling regime! Similarly the Guardians' black uniforms are also quite reminiscent of Lord Haw-Haw as well as Oswald Mosley, so it can get a bit confusing.

Otherwise my other main criticism is one I have made before, that it simply isn't possible to fill an hour long episode with action and so this one comes across as a bit talky.

Have some contemporary TV licence films to set the fearsome tone:

[hunk27sblog]

Here, i make fanfiction story about Hunk trapped in Zootopia. If there's something wrong, you can tell me. Hope you like it!

CHAPTER 1: THE AWAKENING

The sound of birds chirping was heard. A spark of sunshine was onto the ground. The wind makes the sound of shattered leaves from the tree. Here, the scene zoom shows a lying figure in the river . The appearance of figure wore black helmet and black gas mask with red lenses which look intimidating. It also wear full dark military combat gear tactical and black combat boots. He looks unconscious but still breathing while holding his pistol. The figure have codename " HUNK" that engraved in his name tag that attached on his middle chest. Lastly, he have red umbrella badge on his shoulder which it's said " U.S.S." now, he begin to open his eyes behind his gas mask....

HUNK'S POV

* Groan, gasping and coughing* where...am i?

I was woke up from the nightmare. It's not a dream but it was real....all i remember is that i successfully escaped with G-virus sample to bring it to Umbrella. I.... escaped from them, the zombies....they all look terrifying. And... the last time that i remember was....i was in the choppers, with my pilot buddy, Nighthawk then.... everything becomes dark. I couldn't remember what happened to the last part!

" Oh good, now I'm wet now...." Yeah, i just woke up in this shallow river. " Gaah, damn it!" Suddenly, i got pain in my abdomen. Turns out, i get some injured. I wonder, how long i was end up in here? Where i was at? And.... where's the choppers? Where's Nighthawk? I look at surroundings, no sign of any person or my friend here so...i tried to contact Nighthawk with walkie talkie.

" Nighthawk, this is HUNK from Alpha team. I was in this unknown forest- like place. Do you copy, over?"

Still, there's no response from him. I was sighing and tried to contact him again.

" Nighthawk, do you copy? I was in this forest place. Roger me now."

Still, there's no response. I was frustrated, hungry and uncomfortable of this place.

" Urgh heck, DAMN IT!" i curse under my breath and put my walkie talkie back. The injured, it's getting hurt now . I then get up and walk while holding my left waist. It just...hurt. i need to find someone who can help me.

I walk with weak but i must keep going. I breath behind my gas mask. I walk, walk, in this mountain forest. I got slide down to the cliff.

" Hello? Is somebody in there!?"

Still, no sign of any person here. Guess, i must keep going. It's been half hour until in the moment, i found something unusual things far from my distance at the view below of mountain. It was a city, big city! I wonder, if i could get some help from them. There's... must be have people out there! Why not?

HUNK just saw a big city from his distance. He then make on his way to reach to that town. But he didn't know that what kind of inhabitants are in there....

In other scene, a happy of animal kids which seems to be wear scout uniform were having picnic in this mountain. Their laughter was heard and singing while they were walk in this forest area for a picnic which they were led by their pangolins teacher and her assistant, an antelope. One of them, Kyle, a male tiger cub. He loves taking a photo, he always bring his camera.

" Ok, kids! We are reaching here. This place looks comfortable, and safe here. Taylor, Giblet, bring the basket and put it on the table, we are going having lunch together." The pangolins teacher said.

" Yes, miss Coley!!" The both carried the basket, filled with food.

" Ok, class! Come and gathered here. I had to give you an announcement. And.... Bob,

Bob, the pig who always loves to eat, turn and look at teacher's assistant, miss Haley.

" Stop eating and get over here!" Miss Haley scolded him. Bob then get up and come over. All animal kids were gathered, hearing the teacher's speech.

" Ok, everyone. Today, I'm give you an announcement about this camp picnic. About this, we already discuss about the activities scheduled, gift of badge and the date of return from this camp before holiday.

" Miss Coley, what date that we will return from this camp before holidays?" Zoe, the zebra asked.

" We are not sure yet but we decided -"

*CLICK!*

" Ah!" Everyone was yelp. Kyle is the one who taking photo of nature surrounding. He seems distracted by it than give attention.

" Kyle.." miss Haley crossed his arm.

" Yes.... teacher?" Kyle's ear low a bit

" What i told you last time while we are going for a picnic? The rules?"

" Don't take the picture while teacher give an important speech?" Kyle said.

" Yes. Now, give me your camera."

" Ok, ok! I will keep and not take any pictures!" Kyle look frightening and put his camera back in his bag.

" Good, now pay attention what we said."

" I told you, she's a strict teacher." Bryan the wolf said in whisper.

" I know, Bryan!" Kyle said in whisper too.

"Ok, class! Now, you all can having a lunch now. Don't forget, after you eat, pick up the rubbish and put in recycle bin, it was placed in there." Miss Coley pointed at the outside of wood fence where the recycle bin was placed.

They were having lunch together with their teacher but Kyle, he keep taking a photo for his school journal.

" Hey! You should eat with us, Kyle!" Bryan said.

" Nah, I'm fulled. I want to take a picture. Don't disturb me!"

Kyle's POV

I just taking a picture with my camera, it was gift from my grandpa. I left them having lunch without me. That's my hobby, i love taking photos. I asked permission to my teacher to explore in this area while taking photos.

" Miss Coley, can I walk everywhere while taking the picture? "

" Sure, Kyle but don't go too far!!"

I nodded as she said. I then went outside of wood fence. I walk explore in this forest. Until....in the moment, i saw something that i never seen before....

" Wait.... what was that?" I said in my mind then i hide in the bushes. I saw a mysterious figure. It looks... dark, full dark body especially it's head, kinda? And...is that thing wear gas mask!? What the hell!? That gas mask thing.... it's doesn't look like any animal in this Zootopia have.... what a terrifying is.... that gas mask has...red lenses? Is that eyes!? I don't know!!

The creature seems....lost. it walk weakly while holding his waist. What it carries? It's firearms!? What does it wears, looks like unusual military or something, it doesn't have tail!

" Oh heck....is this.... alien? I must take a picture...." I whisper to myself.

* CLICK!*

" Huh!?"

That thing yelp. I can hear it's voice behind his... probably it's mask!?

" Who's there!?"

What the hell!? That thing can talk!? Does... that THING speak in English!? I hide getting deep in the bushes. Oh heck! I don't want get eaten by alien!!!!

My heart was pounding as that thing opened slowly of my hidden place. Now, we get eye contact. His....red lenses, i scream out of fear. That " alien" screams too.

" Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!" I scream.

"Gaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!" It screams too.

I jump out from the bushes. I collapse and stay back while holding my camera with trembling.

" A....a...a.....ALIEN!!!!!!!" i scream so loud until the crow emerge from the tree and fly.

" Gaaahhhh!!" That thing look scare then it run, leaving me alone. I couldn't believe what the hell i saw!!! I shake my heads and run back to the others and tell them. Alien is real!!

I run back to the camping. I scream in fear to them. I couldn't believe what I just watched!!

" ALIEN IS REAL, ALIEN IS REAL!!!!"

" What the hell!?" Miss Coley shocked

" What's wrong with that kid?" Miss Haley said

" What's wrong, Kyle?"

" Why do you scream!?"

" What happened to you!?"

" it's alien, guys!! They are real!!! I just saw it!!" I said to them but my teacher didn't believe me.

" Enough, Kyle!! You are being grounded for taking the pictures and create those nonsense scary story!! You, sit in there, over the cabin!

" But teacher!!" I was about to give my friend a picture but miss Haley immediately pulled my ears.

" Enough of your nonsense. We told you not to going far but look what you just did!!"

" Ouch, ouch!!!! That's hurt!!"

While she pulled me, the picture that I was about to give, fly slowly and one of my friend, Zoe took it. His eyes wide open, especially the others too.they all gathered to see.

" Teacher, teacher!!" Zoe called the teacher.

" What? Another nonsense story again!?"

" No! You have to look this, Kyle was right. Alien is real!!" George the hippo said.

" Give me that picture!!"

The teacher and her assistant look at the picture. The both gasping to see a black figure near a bushes where Kyle was hide in there. It looks intimidating with gas mask and red lenses. They assumed it could be it's eyes.

" No....it can't be...."

" I told you, miss Coley, alien is real!!"

" Quiet, Kyle!! Everyone, packed your stuff now."

" But how about the camping?" Molly the deer asked.

" We had to cancel it. This place is not safe anymore. We had no idea what that kind of creature was but we need to get out of here!" Miss Haley said.

" Wait, i had to take up my phone."

" Miss Coley, who do you want to contact to?" Joy, the rabbit asked.

" I want to call ZPD." Miss Coley said.

Jealousy, Jealousy | Wolverine x Fem!Reader

<... Prev | Chpt 3 | Next...>

Logan has a moment of introspection, not at all proud of the kind of man has he become. You on the other hand, continue to find worse and worse luck.

---

Clang!

...Clang?

You nearly drop your half a music stand to the ground. That's nowhere near the sound you'd expect from metal to skull contact. Logan is out cold for now, giving you just enough time to take in the damage.

Your first clue was the shattered window in the back. The next one was the tearing and pounding sounds coming from the room over.

Your carpet is ruined. Your furniture is all but destroyed. Shit... You're getting evicted for sure.

Fuck fuck fuck! This guy is insane!

So many questions... All of them racing through your head at one.

What the hell is this guy on?, comes to mind for one. How did he find this place? And how did he manage all this? You look around some more. No weapons. No other guys.

Everything looks like it had a sword taken to it...

Logan groans and rubs his head. You look down and just barely catch it- Three long blades retract into his knuckles.

Mutant.

Your eyes go wide. Screaming would do you no good, besides... You're too petrified for much of any reaction at all right now. You drop your metal rod with a proper clang.

Sure you may not be that strong... but there's no way he should be coming to this fast.

Logan whips around at the sound. You back away slowly, ready to bolt. Well this isn't how he wanted to do things, but... He'll take it.

You don't make it far at all before he tackles you to the ground. Your back gives a little pop as it realigns from the force he jumps you with. He feels painfully heavy against your body, way more so then should be possible for something his size.

Holy shit, is this guy made of metal?

The thought crosses your mind briefly, but is soon washed away with fear and pain of another kind. Logan grips your arms roughly and flips you over with an inhuman growl.

"Let's make this easy... Who are you working for!"

"What? You know whe-!"

Logan shakes you roughly by the collar, "I said who!", He leans in menacingly, nose to nose with you, "Striker? Xavier?"

You try to shove him back, but he hardly budges, "Who? What the fuck are you talki-"

His patience has officially run out.

Wolverine snarls and unsheathes his claws a hair's breadth from your cheek, "Don't make me ask you again!"

You wriggle uncomfortably at the threat, but nothing can loosen you from his grip. Fuck, you can't even lift him off you. It crosses your mind that maybe you could lie. Is there something you could tell him that he wants to hear?

But... This doesn't seem like that type of situation.

"Look, I really don't know, alright!"

Logan growls low, but doesn't say anything. He gives you a sniff. After so many years of fighting and interrogating... He's learned what a lie smells like.

He licks his teeth and sheaths his claws. As much as he doesn't want to believe it...

Smells like you're telling the truth.

You're... You're telling...

The truth.

Stupefied, he lets you go slowly and sits up, glowering down at you all the while.

Fuck...

He's fucked up big time now.

You don't know anything. You're just a normal person... And he's betrayed his identity as a mutant to you. Worse then that, he's needlessly threatened you on top of it. Shit... Xavier would have his ass for this.

Fuck!

Without wasting another word, Logan clumsily launches off of you and sprints away.

You stay flat on your back. What... The fuck... Your head is so muddled with adrenaline and confusion... It feels like the room is spinning.

What do you do now?

This place is trashed beyond repair. Hell, might as well terminate your lease now. Not to mention there's a mutant on the loose around here. One that knows who you are and where you live.

With that revelation... Maybe getting out of here would be for the best.

You slowly turn over to lay on your stomach, burying your face in your arms.

Shit... This is bad.

You never understood all the hatred for mutants. Surely they're just like everyone else, right? Now, you're not so sure. Maybe that's not fair of you, but... That was one hell of a first meeting with one.

Little bastard destroyed the only home you could land, and is now effectively forcing you to get the hell out of this town.

Fuck... You don't even have time for a two week's notice. That, and- Well. You need the money from another paycheck, to be honest.

You heave a sigh and pick yourself up slowly. Looks like you'll be back to living out of your car.

The drive from town to home isn't all that long. Maybe he'd have been back sooner if he wasn't so busy trying to clear his head.

Logan jumps out into the snow. Pacing and growling, he kicks a pile of the icy powder and sends it flying. Fuck, he doesn't know what to think... He paces once, then twice more and turns in a tight circle before taking a seat in the packed down snow.

A little barrier of the stuff surrounds him. He folds his arms on top of his knees and rests his chin. Outside is always a good place for thinkin', especially way out here with nothing around.

For the first time in a long time, he takes a long, deep breath. In.... Out....

God... How did he even get here? How did he let things go this far?

He admits, patience has never been his strong suit. His skills at reasoning.... Also weakness. Two of many things the professor was trying to help him work on.

Now look at him.

Haunted by paranoia, chasing enemies that aren't there. Hell, he just terrorized and attacked an innocent woman. In her own home, too.

Logan shakes out his head aggressively.

What the hell is wrong with him? He's never been this bad before... Maybe he's been giving in too much.

Too much fighting. Too much fucking around. Too much doing whatever the hell he wants.

He may be sick of fighting the X-Men's wars but... At least that place forced him to have some structure. Some integrity.

And now? What's become of him now... Now that he has just a little freedom for himself?

He ain't gotta look far.

Don't think it escapes him, the way he has to arch his back a little to get his chin to his knees.

Don't think he doesn't notice how he's gotta angle his legs apart to make room for his stomach.

It don't bother him much, but...

Don't think he's forgotten how he used to be, neither.

Back when he had shit to do. Back when he had people to push him to be better. Back when he gave a fuck.

He hunches his shoulders at that. Damn…. Is that true? Has he really given up that bad?

It’s hard being like this, you know. Just… being the way that he is.

So full of anger and no way to vent it out. It builds and builds and builds… And all it leaves him with are these insatiable urges. To hurt. To fight. To kill. How easy would it be, to just let it all go…

No more temperance. No more discipline. No more heroes…

It would be so easy. He could be like Sabretooth. A fucking monster… but free.

Logan heaves a deep sigh and lays back against the snowy bank. He closes his eyes and tries to imagine a life like that. Running wild, like the other ferals. Doing whatever he wants. Going whenever he wants. Hell, taking whatever he wants.

He furrows his brow for a moment, then shakes his head. Shit… He can’t do it. Can't even picture it.

Doesn't want to.

Maybe there’s a little part of him that clings to the professors idealism, and all the bullshit and integrity he’s had instilled into him...

Maybe he figures, he’s gotta stand for something in this fucked up world… might as well be the right cause.

But then, maybe…

There’s that tiny voice, buried so deep down he hasn’t got a clue where it’s coming from. It’s the part of him that let him latch onto the X-Men and what they stand for in the first place, he supposes. The small part of him that just wants…

Acceptance.

To fit in.

To mean something, anything, to anyone at all.

All his life… his long, long, fucking life- He’s been on his own. Bounce around from town to town. Go somewhere new where no one ever knows his name. Live on the edge of nowhere, just to have a little bit of freedom to be himself.

His real self.

Logan brings up a hand, watching all the whole as he flexes a fist. Snikt.

He stares at those claws… His face growing tighter and tighter as his thoughts build.

Would it be so bad for him to be who he is? An average man with above average abilities? He ain’t askin’ much… Just a little bit of rest. A little bit of peace. Some company.

No more fighting. No more enemies. No more fear…

His eyes narrow. The sky seems so bright.

The other guys got it good, you know. Scott. Remy. Charles. Bobby…. It would be so easy for them to turn it all off. Put aside the mutant shit. Integrate with the humans.

Not him.

Even the humans got it good. Sure, it’s shit being caught in the mutant crossfire, but… It’s not always that bad.

It’s normal.

It’s fulfilling.

It’s everything he’s ever wanted…

Why can’t he have that huh? Be normal? Happy? Have a good, boring life and live and die with the people he loves just like everyone else?

Is that too much to ask? Is that so fucking ha-

Logan screws his eyes shut, the light finally getting to him. A small wet droplet threatens the corner of his eye. Fuck… He wipes it away and jumps up out of the snow.

Thinking too much… He shakes his head out, and then his body, freeing himself of the snow before he stomps inside.

He needs a drink.

You pack the last of your belongings and wrestle them into your car. Now you've got a massive fee for damages and no explanation in your defense. Damn.

At least you're all set up in time for your shift tonight.

Even with the hustle and noise of work, your mind is trapped elsewhere. You should never have left home to begin with. How stupid can you be? This was never going to work, even back then you suspected as much.

You drag your feet all night long.

All you have to do is make enough to pay off your remaining debts and get a little something to hold you over so you can leave. If only you had a clue how long that would be... As much as you'd love to quit right now, even just put in a two week notice-

You don't think it'll be quite that fast.

Right now, you just have to hope you never see that mutant again. Even the thought of him makes your blood boil. The fucker ruined your life and fledgling reputation around here... Didn't even get a chance to set anchor.

It's almost funny. You never thought leaving town over one person was a real thing before now.

With all the thoughts and fears running through his head, it's not for a few days yet until Logan comes back to town. Try as he might like to stay out of your path... He can't resist the allure of his favorite place. Especially when he's feeling this low.

The sight of your car outside is nearly enough to make him think twice.

Shit... Well. Maybe he'll get lucky. In and out. Maybe you won't see him.

Although... That was assuming he didn't see you first.

"Fuck off!", You smack away the hands of an unwelcome patron. It's been a long night of serving drinks, not different then all the rest, but... You've never had a bad experience with the drunks before.

Logan smells the alcohol seeping out of the guy even from there. He watches you strut off. You exclaim that you quit. This place was always a little too rough anyway.

The big guy isn't having it.

He grabs your wrist. You wrench away and blast past the man, Logan, and the door, all in a few angry seconds. It's not much longer at all that the drunk follows you out, shouting and taunting some obscenities.

Logan's seen this one before... Not a pretty picture. The drink can wait. He tails the two of you outside.

No claws no claws no claws....

"Hey! Why don't you leave the girl alone bub?"

The bigger man turns for a moment, but clearly doesn't take much threat, "Why don't you go back inside, eh?"

Logan stomps his way over as the agitator turns back around to you... followed silently by a group of watchers.

He grabs him by the wrist, the wrist that was heading for your person, and jerks him around.

"I'm not known for my patience", Logan growls, "And I sure as hell don't ask twice", he punches a fist into his palm.

Crack!

The other man throws a punch across Logan's jaw. His head snaps to the side. Didn't hurt. A great drunken roar goes up from nearby. Looks like the asshole has friends.

"Get lost runt! I saw her first"

They all laugh.

Cheap shots huh? His favorite.

All it takes is one punch... And the whole scene ignites.

You run, just far enough to get out of dodge. Meanwhile, a whole calamity befalls your little mutant friend. A small gang of men twice his size lay into him.

Ain't a problem... Or, it wouldn't be if he popped his claws.

He's not gonna let em hurt ya'... But he can't give away his identity neither.

The fight goes on for longer then you'd like. Logan gets in a lot of good shots... But the bigger guys are either too drunk or too tough to care all that much. Just when things look bad, they get worse. The little mutant is overwhelmed.

They stomp him into the snow. Pound his head and face and bones to a pulp. The ice turns red with blood. And when they're done with him, all nearly just as bloodied and beaten... They turn to you.

The leader wipes a stream of blood off his lips. He looks at you a long time... Then, "Forget it... The bitch ain't worth it"

"Here, have your little rat back", one of the others kicks Logan across the snow. He rolls over twice and stops pathetically.

When they're gone... You can breathe again.

Logan grunts, just a few feet away. Damn, he looks bad... You inch closer.

You haven't forgotten what he did, but... You're not going to ignore what he's just done for you either. He struggles for a moment, then drops back down, inciting you to come the rest of the way over.

Carefully, you brush some hair out of his face, just to get a better look. Your hand comes back wet with blood. Shit...

You look down at him. And over to your car.

Wouldn't it be easier to just... Leave? This isn't your problem, after all.

You look back down at the little mutant. Shit.

"Can we get some help out here!", you stay by his side and call back towards the bar.

Wanted to tack some tags on (from other ppl) because They're very true, as well as add a little bit to what I've already said.

I've seen a new post this morning about the whole situation and I don't think enough people realize what happened during the Nyx Hydra-Dorian shift.

I've also not done any research as I just woke up (oof gotta stop making these posts in bed) so please please please correct me if I am wrong but it's basically this:

The Arcana was no longer making Nyx Hydra enough money (through coins and merch) and so they sold it to Dorian, and they didn't have to.

You can see the quality drop in tales and routes closer to the transition, such as Muriel's love confession CG having wack torso proportions, and the fact Nyx Hydra barely finished Portia's route, having to hold several campaigns to bring light to her route being possibly dropped.

Which is a little hard to side with. It's understandable sure! Less money means it's harder to get good quality stuff.

But to me, less money means you need to work hard at what you can do and take longer. Take longer to get Muriel's love confession out, and take longer to finish both Muriel and Lucio's routes so you can keep updating them with Portia's.

The last three routes always feel rushed (and id like to possibly talk about that later in the future) they have only one chapter per book where as the main three have three chapters per one book until halfway through the story.

All this to simply say Dorian (while messing up the characters' tales) is definitely trying their best to keep Arcana alive, and that means letting Fans make Fan content with official sprites. Which is wonderful!

The tags I was previously tacking on:

These tags speak the truth, it's so easy to simply scroll by someone you don't like or to click out if you find it's not to your taste.

So I have a challenge to anyone hating on Dorian or Dorian fan content: make it yourself, go out there get the app and make a story you would be happy to read!

I think I also saw someone indirectly respond to these tags saying (or asking?) if the creators actually get paid by the company, and I may be wrong again but they do. The heart system is much like a uh casino more specifically card games.

You give money to a desk and get chips in return, you spend those chips, and then go back to the counter and get whatever money you won or you walk out with no won money.

You pay to get hearts (or get them free from events etc) go and spend the hearts on stories, and then those creators go and turn in the hearts for actual money. Except it's all automated and I don't actually know if this is how it works. Educated guess if you will.

Granted, a lot of the fan content is being made like anyone on ao3 is making content, the thought of money isn't there. They're just making it for fun, and Dorian is like "Look at you go! Have some money for your fun!" I think I've seen multiple Dorian fan creators say they have jobs outside of Dorian and just like to post the content there, the money is nice but it's not their job/main source of income.

A bit of an uh off-topic thing here, so feel free to stop reading here it's just about possible future posts 💖

I love talking to my friend about the different things I see in the fandom. The mischaracterization of Julian and Asra, the ramped shipping of the two, ignoring of some characters (looking at Portia my sweet girly), and a big doozy but Asra's gender presentation. I would possibly love to talk about these in the future in a very factual way and less opinionated.

But I did say that I wanted to keep this blog from being ranty, I mostly just meant things like this which are more "come in guys lay off" and less "This is what I see happening, let's have a friendly discussion about it and why it could be happening, as well as how to handle it in the future"

Sooo if you guys like these posts I might keep posting them in a Voide Talky Talk tag (seen below) so you can just mute that if you'd like to just see the reblogs and art I sometimes post.

Have a nice day, guys! And please be nice to one another.

About Dorian

I've been seeing a lot of people talking about Dorian recently, from drama to just being disappointed in them, so I wanted to give my two cents on them

But I also don't want to be a ranty blog so I'm gonna keep this below a cut. I'm also tired and about to go to bed so probably shouldn't be making this lol.

Dorian is Wonderful, its a great concept but sadly not too well executed.

The last I checked (since I had to delete Dorian for space) they haven't made new content for the Arcana, the most they did were side stories that were poorly received but then they started uploading the routes kind of directly from the Arcana app.

A lot of criticism I've seen and also a lot of Arcana content coming from Dorian I've seen has all been about stories made by the fans and not the actual Dorian team. So a lot of what people are saying about the characters being off is true just not what they're saying about the Dorian team themselves.

Yes, surprisingly, fans constantly misrepresent characters. I was just talking about this with my friend but people always seem to dumb Julian down to a "horny hack doctor who doesn't know what a medical school is" and Asra always seems to be reduced to a "lazy calm guy bro dude" or "horny enby who cant show a spec of gender" whereas other characters are also miss-characterized Asra and Julian being the most popular means its more noticeable with them.

I haven't consumed any Dorian fan stories but I have consumed content in other ways and this is my general consensus of the Arcana fandom.

So seeing people harshly criticizing Dorian and people making fan content on the app for being out of character seems very hypocritical.

I'm not saying don't point it out and be like “Man! That seems a bit out of character maybe try this response instead!”. I am saying not to harass people over a mistake that accidentally slipped through a totally fanmade project.

When in doubt just... Click off the story, maybe send a quick dm being like "Yo! Fyi I think there's a mistake here!" but just stop hating on Dorian and the fans making stories for what I assume is free. Treat this like ao3

Now if it does come out that the Dorian team is making more stories off-character or they are blatantly erasing character aspects then yeah we have reason to complain. But for now, they're a relatively new app and are simply trying to get their bearings, the Arcana App didn't use to be as pretty and polished as it is now so we just need to give the team time.

It does suck that they are shoving Dorian down the Arcana Apps throat...

[thecollectionsof]

the fifth store (i don't know what else to name this?)

i don't feel like posting anything under 1k words to ao3 so. here's this, as ~exclusive bonus content~

(under the read more because i don't want to take up space)

Gigi sighs as she finds nothing of interest in yet another store, this one marking her fifth try. Running one hand through her hair, she lets out a long sigh, beginning to retrace her steps through the store, its winding sales racks and narrow walkways making it hard to get to the exit. Maybe that was a weird design strategy or something, but the cramped shelves seemed way too purposeful for it to be accidental.

Gigi is knocked from her thoughts as she bumps into a clothing rack, sending a few of the dresses on it tumbling to the floor. The movement causes a commotion, the beads on the remaining dresses still hanging up noisily clacking against one another in a racket that might sound nice if it wasn’t so loud. She smooths her hands over the dresses, shushing them as she hangs up the ones that have fallen.

“Did you just shush clothing?” A lilting voice rings out from somewhere to her left, and as she turns she’s met with a girl about her age muffling her laughter behind one hand. She seemingly works at the store, dressed in a button down, jeans, and a name tag reading Crystal in surprisingly neat handwriting. She has an undeniable charm to her—maybe it was her abundance of accessories, or her curly mullet?

“Uh… no?” She turns her head slightly, embarrassed that she was caught doing something weird. And by someone who looks so cool, too.

“No, no! Don’t be embarrassed, it was cute! Just the other day, a customer caught me having a full conversation with one of the mannequins, so trust me—I get it,” Crystal rushes to soothe her, and Gigi can’t help but let out a chuckle.

“Do you make a habit of talking to mannequins, Crystal?” 

“…No?” Crystal hesitates, obviously lying, and Gigi can’t help but melt at how endearing she is, “Wait. How do you know my name?”

“Um. It says it on your shirt. You know you’re wearing a name tag, right?” 

Crystal blinks, like it hadn’t occurred to her. 

“Oh. Oh, yeah, I am. What’s your name, I’m at a disadvantage!” She pouts, jutting out her lower lip. Gigi lets out a loud laugh before quickly stifling it, noticing how out of place it seemed in the quiet store. Crystal’s face brightens at the sound, a wide grin stretching across her face.

“Gigi. Gigi Goode,” she introduces herself with a smile, matching the already present one on Crystal’s face. 

A crackling voice sounds through a walkie-talkie attached to Crystal’s hip, summoning her to the back of the store. The magnetic energy that had built between the two of them flees, and Crystal takes one slow step back, looking as deflated and disappointed as Gigi feels. Gigi’s hand reaches out, looking to catch the girl in front of her before she can go any further, but she remembers herself at the last second and returns her hand to her side.

“Feel free to say no. But. Could I have your number? Or—wait, I should just give you my number, I don’t want to put any pressure on you or anything, wait a second—” Words fall out of Gigi’s mouth before she can stop them, but she’s too concerned with finding a pen to worry about her rambling. 

She finds a scrap of a receipt and a purple pen in the bottom of her purse, and she scribbles her number onto the receipt before shoving it into Crystal’s hands. 

“Don’t feel like you have to text! But you can. If you want.” Gigi blushes and looks down at the floor, the awkwardness of her fumbling finally catching up to her. A beat of silence passes, then two, and Gigi thinks she’s blown it until she hears the distinct sound of Crystal’s laughter once more. She looks up to see the girl in front of her clutching the paper, her face flushed red and smiling wide as she steps closer again. Crystal catches one of Gigi’s hands in her own—the one not holding the receipt—and squeezes it.

“I’ll definitely be texting you, don’t worry. I’ll text you right when I’m done with my shift, okay?” Crystal asks, letting go of Gigi’s hand. The same voice sounds through the walkie-talkie again, more urgent this time.

“Okay,” Gigi echoes. Crystal shoots her one last grin as she turns to the back of the store, walking with a skip in her step towards a room labeled Keep Out: Employees Only. Gigi watches her duck inside, before turning on her heel and walking out of the store.  Despite walking empty-handed out of all of the five stores she had been to today, she still considered it a success. After all, she may not have found what she was looking for, but she did find something—someone—far more interesting.

Thank you so much for your blog, love reading it..... do you mind if I ask recs for either cnovel or cdrama or kdrama? I actually start from an anime/manga lover and now want to try other things.... Do you know manga Akatsuki no Yona? It's about a princess that was running away with her bodyguard in search for the 4 dragons (that turns out to be in human form and become her extra bodyguards)....She tried to take over again her kingdom from her cousin and along the way getting to know and helping the people of her kingdom.... Do you know either media (novel or drama) that had premise like this...? Sorry for the long ask...Thanks again....

ahhh okay first of all, all my apologies for taking eons to respond to this (ノ*°▽°*) I’ve had a hectic past few weeks and I didn’t want to rush through a response for this, so I finally managed to find some time this weekend hehe

welcome to cdramas and kdramas! (o^▽^o) I’ve done a rec for danmei (bl cnovels) here before; I don’t know enough non-bl cnovels to be able to recommend any but I’m currently slowly reading my way through quan zhi gao shou (the king’s avatar) which is about esports >5 million words rip me

I’ve watched akatsuki no yona! wwaaaaayyy back, and I really enjoyed it too! I don’t know if there are any media that have a similar premise to it though... so what I’m gonna do below is to just recommend kdramas I feel are worth the watch and also add in a point or two if I feel there are any similarities! someone else asked me about cdrama recs too shortly after your ask and I’ve answered them here, also putting in a point on two for any similarities

disclaimers!

I haven’t watched a lot of kdramas recently (as compared to past few years) so a lot of the recs you’ll see here are from a few years ago

I prefer shows with action, mystery, monsters (think vampires and zombies), sci-fi, crime, so if you’re looking for romcoms and slice of life, I’m the last person you should be asking (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)

nevertheless, I’ve split the recs below according to completed, plan to watch, and shows I’m not planning to watch now but I know that are very highly recommended

synopses, genres, and tags from mydramalist

completed + MY FAVES (i.e. I will scream at you to watch it now)

Fifteen years ago, a young girl was kidnapped on the way from school, and Park Hae Yeong, who was an elementary school student at that time, witnessed the crime. A few days later, the girl was found dead, and the police were not able to find the culprit. As time went by, Hae Yeong started distrusting the police. Fifteen years later, Hae Yeong is now a police officer and criminal profiler. One day, he finds a walkie-talkie that allows him to get in contact with Detective Lee Jae Han who is in the past. Police officers Hae Yeong, Jae Han, and Cha So Hyun then set out on a journey to solve cold cases.

Genres: thriller, mystery, sci-fi

Tags: different timelines, Hwaseong Serial Murders, murder, criminal profiler, serial killer, investigation, death, tragic past, corruption, suspense

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsdJLm7Swkw

this show is so fucking good like

you know a show is good when it inspires not one, not two, but THREE remakes (japanese, chinese, thai)

I also personally like to think that it inspired a lot of kdramas with a similar premise (crime solving + serial killer + past-present wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff) that came after it

Kim Shin was once an unbeatable general in Goryeo's military who died a tragic death. He now possesses immortality but is tired of living while everyone else around him dies. For 900 years, Kim Shin has searched for his bride, a mortal who can pull out the sword and end his life. One day, he encounters Ji Eun Tak, a positive, upbeat high school student who can see the dead and has gone through tragic events, yet still stays strong. She claims to be the Goblin's bride who can end his immortal life, but what appears to be an easy task, only gets complicated, as the two fall in love.

Genres: comedy, romance, fantasy, melodrama

Tags: supernatural, interspecies romance, dokkaebi, fate, tearjerker, bromance, death, heartfelt, true love

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tOxnroOTWU

I was obsessed with this when it was airing and I happened to also be in south korea at that time and it was such an experience getting the merch and seeing posters everywhere and going all the way to the filming locations to geek out (lol)

might be similar to ANY because of... bickering bromance (idk now that I think about it kim shin and wang yeo low key remind me of hak and jaeha)

As the leader of a crime investigation team, Han Tae Joo has propelled his career and risen through the ranks by trusting data over all else. One day, while investigating a serial murder case, he has an accident. When he wakes up, he suddenly finds himself in the winter of 1988. He doesn't know why, but he's now a detective appointed to work at a police station in a small city. To get back to the present day, Han Tae Joo tries to solve the case.

Genres: action, mystery, psychological, comedy

Tags: 1980s, police procedural, bromance, strong friendship, hallucination, serial killer, coma

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBfKn188dmE

another really good detective show that involves time stuff! but this one is a remake of the UK drama of the same name

ends in a cliffhanger that I found absolutely delicious

might be similar to ANY because of... found family

really clever take on zombies!

and because it’s a sageuk (historical kdrama) of course they had to somehow weave some form of political struggle into it as well

also has a second season, a movie, and an upcoming third season

might be similar to ANY because of... badass female lead who absolutely kicks ass and also uses a bow and arrow (though she only appeared in the movie so far), political struggle for the crown

A zombie and a writer team up to solve crimes in this thrilling drama that explores what happens when someone actually comes back to life.

Sun Ji, who once was a writer for a TV show that deals with issues regarding current affairs, is employed as a part-time assistant at Moo Young’s agency.

nose bleeding is a huge part of the show though, so if you can’t take very bloody scenes, it’s best to sit this one out

there’s going to be a second season!

I first got interested in this because some people called it a zombie show

but looking at mdl, they’ve tagged it more as “disease”, “illness”; personally I felt the “monsters” in this show were more like vampires than zombies

repeating my point from sweet home since it completely applies to here as well: because I am a sucker for monster shows (especially where the main lead happens to be the monster who is Trying To Hide Their Identity or Trying To Restrain Themselves Around The Normal Humans) this one was absolutely up my alley

yoon sae bom and jung yi hyun (aka girlboss and malewife) are THE ABSOLUTE BEST I LOVE THEM SO MUCH YOUR HONOUR

As a divisive figure with an aura of mystery that belies his true identity and ambitions, the public is unsure whether he is a true hero or someone, knowingly sowing the seeds of discontent in his courtroom.
