Pit Babe season 1 (approximate) Timeline, because the temporality is driving me nuts
Episode 1 :
Day 1 -> Babe and Charlie first meeting until Babe drive Charlie back home and we see Kenta and we get the fist glimpse of Tony
Day 2 -> Babe bring Charlie the the garage -> purple scene
Day 3 -> Charlie becomes Babe's boy until the scene at the bar
Day 4 -> Babe watch the new about Tony
Episode 2
Day 4 -> Tony's interview until the end of the scene between Babe, Alan and Way
Day 5 -> The scene with Babe and Charlie in the kitchen -> Charlie meeting with Jeff -> Tony choose Kim -> Charlie comes back to Babe (i would say that there is a whole day between Charlie and Jeff meeting and Jeff coming to the garage)
Day 6 or 7 -> Jeff comes to the garage -> Team meeting -> Babe and Charlie at the gym -> Winner/Kim scene
Day 7 or 8 -> Babe bring Charlie to the choose a car until the scene between North and Sonic
Day 8 or 9 -> Charlie is "thrown out" the training field by Way -> Alan Kenta meeting
Episode 3
Day 8 or 9 -> until the fist kiss scene
Day 10 -> At the garage, conversation between Alan/Jeff and Alan/Dean
Day 11 -> (because you can't just go meet someone like Pete in one afternoon, lest be real) Alan meeting Pete
Day 12 to 15 -> (because again, you don't get a full sponsor ship which is like 90% at your avantage in a day and 3 days is a generous approximation) sponsor ship celebration -> Winner/Kim confrontation -> Kim meet with Tony-> cute kisses between Babe and Charlie -> WayNorthSonic scene at the garage
Day 16 -> Charlie becomes Babe apprentices until the scene where Charlie leave the bed
Day 17 -> the next morning -> Babe sees Charlie with Jeff -> he comes home drunk
Day 18 -> in the locker room before the race
Episode 4
Day 18 -> until Babe comes home from the bar and sees Charlie's text
Day 19 -> Babe get attacked -> race -> Kim punches Winner -> Babe goes to see Tony -> Babe comes home and Charlie "cooks" for him
Day 20 -> Babe break up with Charlie until Charlie goes to Babe house that night and tries to call Babe
Day 21 or 22 -> start with the race
Episode 5
Day 21 or 22 -> Babe accident until the scene where Way sleep at the hospital with Babe
Day 23 to 24 -> Babe is back home (lets be honest the keep him at the hospital for at least 1 whole day after the accident),-> team meeting > discussion with Kim -> Alan and Way meet with Pete (you don't get a meeting with the vice-president of a big group for the next day)......until the scene in the bathroom
Day 25 -> i would say that the scene between Tony/Kenta and the scene with Pete at the bar happens the same day/night
Day 26 -> Babe realize he doesn't have his power -> until Babe agrees to train Charlie
Now it gets tricky because :
let's say
Day 27 -> first day of training -> Babe brings Charlie to the restaurant
then the next scene, Babe tell every one that the one who's going to replace him is Charlie -> cut the the pre-race scene
BUT !!!!!! Only one one day of training is bullshit so we have at least 2 to 4 weeks between those two the "first training day" and the race between Babe, Charlie and Dean
So let's cut it to :
Day 45 -> Babe annonce that Charlie will replace him -> before the race
Episode 6
Day 45 -> Race -> Alan/Dean -> Alan goes to apologies -> Boyfriend!!! locker room scene....sad sad Way + Pete
Day 46 -> Dean get kicked out (poor baby) -> Alan/Jeff -> house scene -> Bar -> Way crying in his car (booh)
Episode 7
Day 46 -> Alan/Babe scene (yes, it's the same night)
Day 47 -> the vision discussion between Charlie and Jeff -> Pete brings Way home
Day 48 -> Way wakes up and i think the scene between Kim and Winner happens the same day
Day 49 -> Kim confront Tony -> scene at the hotel? bar -> Babe goes to Way -> Charlie tries to call
Day 50 -> Babe wake up at Way -> Babe/Charlie confrontation -> car scene -> Way being stood up (lol)
Day 51 or/to 54 -> Discussion between Alan/Babe (Babe ask Alan if it got news about Kim, implying that it been some days since he heard about him ?) + NorthSonic (same, the way they say thing implies that neither have seen Way in a few days) -> Tony kidnapping Kim (i believe it happens in the same time frame)
Episode 8
Day 51 or/to 54 -> end of the scene with Kim -> Alan and Jeff share a meal -> Pete and Way at the bar -> Jeff and Charlie scene at the cafe
Day 56 -> scene with Pete -> Babe and Charlie goes to Kim hotel room -> Pete/Kenta -> Jeff is at Tony's -> Charlie Babe scene on the couch
Day 57 -> CharlieBabe bathroom scene -> BBQ scene -> and apparently the whole thing with Andy and Kim rescue mission also happens that day...okay
.
.
I will continue tomorrow
I'm posting this mainly for me, but if you think i missed something or got the days wrong, i will happily make some change

Bill In Therapy: Rise of Static Ford

Have you ever written a word on a sheet of paper so often that the ink bled onto the following page? Now what if I told you that actions can have the same effect?
The abundance of alternate universes which included Stanford Pines meddling with forces beyond his human comprehension have given birth to the anomaly Static Ford. An amalgamation of the three most repeated aspects of the man himself; " I love my muse " , " I hate Bill cipher " and " I am Stanford Filbrick Pines". Now aware of his state between dimensions he's working on using a weakened Bill to free himself of his prison and go about creating what he truly deserves: a life of his own.
The entire comic in chronological order as well as extra- and fan content!

Bill In Therapy:
Part 1: What if therapy worked a little tiny bit on BILL?
Part 2: Nestled right between the frontal and temporal lobe
Part 3: Would that interest you my muse?

Mozart's In The Dark
Reader(wife) X Bruce Wayne/Batman(husband)
Summery: You and Batman get hit with a gas that makes you temporality unable to move. You pass the time in fun little conversation.
Rating: Fluff
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I would love to kick you, but I can even feel my legs." You say, your voice strained and dry. A sadistic laugh echoes through the alley, the gas thick and suffocating in the air around you. Bruce's eyes, usually filled with fiery determination, are now glazed over, his body limp beside you.
You glance around, trying to get your bearings. The world around us is a blur of shadows and distorted sounds. The alley is narrow, lined with dumpsters and graffiti-covered walls. Above, the moon casts a feeble glow through the maze of buildings, providing just enough light to make out the outline of your attackers retreating into the distance.
"Let's do something to pass the time. Maybe it'll help keep our spirits up."
Bruce's eyebrows shoot up in surprise, but he doesn't argue. "Alright," he says, his voice a bit more clear than before.
So you start to sing, "Baby shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo…"
Bruce's eyes widen. "Really?"
"What? It's catchy." you laugh.
Bruce groans. "Catchy doesn't mean good."
"Fine," You concede, trying to think of something else. "How about this one?" You begin to sing the Batman theme song.
Bruce's eyes roll back into his head. "Oh, please, no. Not that."
"What?" you ask, feigning innocence. "It's your theme song, after all."
"And that's why it's the last thing I want to hear right now," Bruce says, his tone light despite the gravity of your situation.
"Fine," you say, pouting a little. "Then what do you want to hear?"
Bruce thinks for a moment, his breaths shallow and forced. "How about something from your playlist?"
"Alright," you say, "but only if it's not something too cheesy."
Bruce smiles faintly. "Cheesy? You mean like 'Batdance'?"
"Don't you dare," you threaten.
He chuckles weakly. "I was just testing you."
You lean your head back, the cold pavement providing little comfort. "What's on your playlist then, Bruce?"
He takes a deep, painful breath. "Well, some Mozart, some Led Zeppelin."
"Mozart?" You raise an eyebrow. "I didn't take you for a classical kind of guy."
"And you married me," he says with a smirk, despite the gravity of our situation. "You should have known I had layers."
"But Bruce, my beloved, my soulmate, you listen to Mozart?" you ask, your voice filled with a mix of surprise and amusement.
"What did you think I would listen to?" he asks, his voice a barely-there whisper as the gas starts to wear off.
"I don't know," you admit, "Maybe something more… brooding? Rock? Something emo."
Bruce lets out a small laugh, the sound surprisingly warm in the cold, desolate alley. "Emo, huh?"
"Well, you know, the whole 'Dark Knight' vibe," you tease, trying to keep the mood light.
Bruce shakes his head slightly, his movements still sluggish. "You think I sit in the batcave, brooding to emo music?"
"I didn't say that," you retort, "But it's not like I've ever seen you rocking out to Mozart while fighting crime."
"And you've seen me with emo music?" Bruce says, a small smile on his lips.
"Well, no, I haven't," you admit, "but I can imagine it."
Bruce's head turns slightly towards you, his eyes focusing with a bit more clarity. "Alright, I'll play along. What song would you pick for me?"
you think for a moment, a smirk playing on your lips. "Let's go with something Skillet, I'm thinking "Hero"."
Bruce's eyes widen. "Really?"
"What?" you ask, playing coy. "You don't think it fits?"
"Mozart," Bruce repeats, his voice gaining a bit more strength with each word, "has a certain… elegance to it. Plus, it helps me think."
Youlook at him, surprised by his revelation. "Elegance? In the heat of battle?"
"No," Bruce says firmly, "I'm not looking for a song for the heat of battle. I'm looking for something to keep me sane."
"Sane?" you repeat, the word feeling foreign in the chaos that is your life.
Bruce nods. "Sane."
"I married a complete nutjob," you murmur, the smirk on your face growing wider.
Bruce's chuckle is barely a breath, but it's there. "You say that like it's a surprise," he says.
You feel the tension in your body start to ease as the gas wears off. "Well, you do wear a cape and fight crime at night," you say, a hint of laughter in your voice.
"It's not a cape," he says, his tone mock-serious. "It's a cloak."
"Whatever you say, Mr. Wayne," you tease.
"How much longer do you think we have?" Bruce asks, his voice still strained but with a touch more urgency.
You struggle to sit up, pushing through the lingering heaviness in your limbs. "I'm not sure," you say, gritting your teeth against the pain. "But we need to move before they come back."
Bruce nods, his eyes narrowing in concentration as he tries to push himself up with his arms. "I think…I think I have an idea," he says, his voice still strained.
You watch as he fumbles with his utility belt, the leather straps and gadgets blurring before your eyes. "What are you doing?" you ask, your own voice still thick with the remnants of the gas.
"I have a shot of epinephrine," Bruce says through clenched teeth, his movements slow and deliberate. "It's for emergencies like this. It might help counteract the effects of the gas."
You watch as he fumbles with the cap, his trembling hand finally managing to remove it. The silver needle gleams in the moonlight, a beacon of hope in this otherwise grim situation.
"Here," he says, offering it to you with a forced smile. "You first."
You take the epinephrine from his hand, the cold metal sending a shiver down your spine. You know the drill; we've practiced this before. But never in a real situation. You inject yourself in the thigh, hissing as the liquid shoots into my system. For a moment, everything goes white, and then, as if a switch has been flipped, the world snaps back into focus.
Bruce watches you closely, his eyes searching for any signs of improvement. "How do you feel?" he asks, his voice stronger now.
"Better," you reply, taking a deep breath and sitting up with a grimace. "A lot better." The epinephrine is coursing through your veins, burning away the last remnants of the paralyzing gas. You hand the epinephrine back to him, and he takes it with a nod, injecting himself with the same determination.
You stand up slowly, your legs wobbly but cooperating. Bruce does the same, his cape fluttering slightly in the breeze. He looks at me, a question in his eyes. "Can you run?"
You nod, taking a tentative step. "Yeah, I think so."
Bruce stands with more ease than you expect, the epinephrine working its magic. "Good," he says, "because we need to get out of here before the cops show up. Too many questions we can't answer."
With a smirk, "Hey, start playing your Mozart for dramatic affect," you joke, trying to lighten the mood.
"Hon," he warns, his voice a bit stronger now.
You shrug, smiling. "What?"
Bruce rolls his eyes before turning serious. "We need to get back to the manor."
The sirens are closer now, the red and blue lights dancing through the narrow gaps between buildings. The gas has almost fully dissipated, and we can move more freely. Bruce takes your arm over his shoulder his grip firm but gentle, as you make your way out of the alley. Your movements are swift and calculated, years of experience guiding you through the shadows and away from the approaching authorities.

Danny/Wally, blue, mint
@Luckeykasper
WC: 547
Depending on who and when you asked someone, the Speed Force and Clockwork could be many things to each other: friends, enemies, lovers, brothers, each other, or the very same person. They were both, after all, masters of Time and that had to bring some sort of a connection. On the other hand, they both handled Time very differently from each other which more often brought conflict. Throughout all of their different labels and ever shifting moods one thing was true: the Speed Force and Clockwork were gossiping old biddies about everything and everyone that ever was or would be.
(And, if occasionally, they came together in way that no mortal mind could ever comprehend, well, then that was their business and no one else’s.)
The gossiping old biddies part is what was important in that moment. Not to most people, of course. Most people didn’t have the constitution to be aware of temporal fluctuations, and, even if they had, the current wibbliness of time really only mattered to two people: one Wally West and one Daniel Fenton. Or by other names which might matter more at the moment: Kid Flash and Phantom, the Speed Force’s chosen and Clockwork’s cog, and, most importantly, beloved pseudo-grandsons.
It’s just, the Speed Force sighed, or came as close as a cosmic entity could manage to a sigh, Wally keeps falling instantly for people that he knows are unattainable.
They sounded young right then, like a dramatic teen, and Clockwork unconsciously shifted his form to match. “If they’re unattainable, why does he fall for them?”
Because they’re unattainable. I think he’s afraid to fall for someone he could have because… because of me.
Clockwork snorted. “Isn’t that a bit egotistical?”
The space around them sparked with static. No!
“Really?”
Really! He’s afraid because of what I’ve given him! He’s not simple a person anymore— he’s a cosmic force! The static faded to a sad sputtering and then stopped. All of existence seemed to drag around them. And how often is he going to run into someone who handle that? He’s afraid of trying, my poor boy…
Clockwork nodded in commiseration. His form aged and shifted until he floated hunched over himself. “I see. Danny has become like that as his power has grown. He has pulled away from the living and dead a like. I have concerns about his bonds if it continues.”
The Speed Force jolted, reality spinning in a sudden whirl. That’s it!
“Stop that,” Clockwork ordered, wrenching things back into control with a firm hand. “What are you on about? What silly idea do you have now?”
Danny is cosmic.
“Yes,” Clockwork agreed dryly.
Wally needs someone who understands cosmic! Danny needs someone who has strong ties to the world! Wally’s whole self is saving the world. It’s perfect.
Clockwork actually took a moment to consider the thought.
You know I’m right.
“You’re never right.”
Bitch.
“But,” Clockwork said slowly. The Speed Force buzzed in anticipation. “This might at least be worth a try.”
I told you!
“They can’t suspect it’s a set up though,” Clockwork admonished quickly.
Of course not, too damn stubborn. But… it wouldn’t be too hard to make their paths cross, now would it?
“No,” Clockwork grinned. “No I don’t think that it would.”
---
AN: Okay, so we didn't actually get to Danny/Wally but this idea got in my head and lol. Idk maybe I'll continue this one at some point down the road!
#dp x dc#quick death ship#kinda#also implied speed force/clockwork because what is my life#prompalomp

Ch. 1 - Against the Wall {Against All Odds - TVA!Loki x Female Reader Longfic}
Cee's Loki Fic Masterlist / AO3 Link / Against All Odds Masterlist / Next Chapter
Pairing : TVA!Loki x Female Reader
Summary : The first interrogation of X-5 doesn’t go as planned, and Loki needs to blow off some steam. He returns to 1977 for a drink, and discovers that not only have his actions have left you abandoned by your date to his movie premiere -�� but it’s also your birthday.
Thankfully, Loki knows just how to solve both of your problems.
W/c : 4.4k words
Content Warnings : Smut, p-in-v, semi-public sex, strangers to lovers, ruffled tuxedo appreciation
Author's Note : This one is dedicated to my beloved and beautiful friend @infinitystoner as part of our Glorious Birthday Bash. Our ask boxes are open, so get those questions in!
18+ Only - Minors DNI
⊱ ── ༓ ── ⋅•⋅⊰ ── ⋅ ∙ ∘ ☽ ༓ ☾ ∘ ∙ ⋅ ── ⊱⋅•⋅ ── ༓ ── ⊰
Loki was absolutely seething. The Hunter X-5 - Brad, or whatever he wanted to be called, was not just uncooperative in answering their questions about General Dox’s plans - he was a complete asshole about it. And even though they knew he would be, it was still impressive just how quickly he managed to rattle all three of them and completely derail the interrogation.
It was enough to make Loki afraid that he was losing his touch, that his edges had softened too much. But after the catastrophic events he’d endured over the past few months, what else could he expect?
After leaving the interrogation room with Mobius and B-15, Loki had stormed away, his eyes blazing with fury and his fists clenching until his knuckles were white. He just needed a moment to calm himself down, to regain control of his emotions.
Truthfully, what he needed was a break, to relieve some tension and come back to his problems with a clear head. If only everything would just stop trying to implode for five minutes, he might be able to do that. But the weight of everything he needed to fix was slowly crushing him to death instead.
And that asshole thought it necessary to throw the death of Frigga in his face and call him a villain - all in the same breath. The audacity, the nerve of that man to speak to him like that - when genuinely, truthfully and in every sense of the word, Loki was only trying to fix, not harm.
Loki pushed himself further down the endless corridors of the TVA, and the anger radiating through his skin alerted the unassuming TVA employees to continue minding their own business as they slinked past him. Loki’s heavy footsteps echoed off the pristine floors and elegant walls, and he foolishly thought that maybe they’d take the hint and turn around to take a different path towards their destination. But just as soon as he would find himself alone in the hallway, another one would appear, and Loki’s rage would elevate just a little bit more.
Norns, was there nowhere to even think in this place?!
Soon, Loki found himself in another alcove with another elevator, that inevitably led to another floor with even more corridors and TVA employees who were just trying to do their jobs in the face of a Temporal Loom meltdown and total destruction. It wasn’t their fault; it was the only thing they knew how to do.
There had to be an exit around here somewhere - a courtyard, or a sidewalk, or something - any place Loki could go and not be reminded of all of this. But how long would it take him to find it?
Too long. And more likely than not, a new crisis would emerge before he could even reach it.
As he paced back and forth across the granite floor, Loki’s hands alternated between raking through his hair, clenching at his sides, and resting on his hips. His mind raced uncontrollably, and his chest heaved to keep enough oxygen mixing with the blood flowing through his veins. He was starting to feel trapped, doomed, cursed.
Loki took a deep breath to steady himself, and as he closed his eyes, his thoughts shifted to the beautiful woman he’d seen earlier that evening. Her stylish dress, pale amber and loosely cinched around her waist, had been far too enchanting to be wasted on a date to a silly movie premiere. She was much too good to be on Brad’s arm for the evening, and Loki wondered if he had even bothered to learn her name…
But ultimately, it didn’t matter. Loki didn’t have the time or the space to clear his head, and he certainly didn’t have the time to waste on thoughts of a woman he’d never see again. He was just going to have to carry on, to power through the stress and brain fog and dread, like he’d always done.
Resigning himself to return from where he came, Loki shoved his hands in the pockets of his pea coat and turned on his heels to head back to Mobius and B-15 and the interrogation of Brad. But he stopped as his fingers brushed against something, and his brow furrowed as he pulled the TemPad out of his pocket.
Loki couldn’t remember how or when it got there. He turned it over in his hands carefully, running his fingertips across its smooth edges and polished wood grain as he considered his options.
With this, he could easily find a place to think, and he could return just moments after he left the interrogation room. And with the branches of the Sacred Timeline already diverging wildly out of control, no one would ever know he had left.
Loki quickly glanced over his shoulders to make sure he was alone, and he flipped the top screen of the TemPad open. The previous coordinates were still typed in, still active.
All he had to do was press a single button and walk through the Time Door. In another moment or two, he could return to the Zaniac premiere and finally have the drink he so desperately needed.
And maybe Brad’s date would be willing to share that drink with him…
⊱ ── ༓ ── ⋅•⋅⊰ ── ⋅ ∙ ∘ ☽ ༓ ☾ ∘ ∙ ⋅ ── ⊱⋅•⋅ ── ༓ ── ⊰
Date : June 18th, 1977 [Sacred Timeline]
This was not how you thought your birthday would turn out.
Dressed to the nines, after hours in the salon chair getting your hair done and days of planning your outfit down to the perfume kissing the insides of your wrists - all so you could be abandoned by that jackass before the showing of his film even started.
What made it worse was you didn’t even want to be here tonight, with this Brad Wolfe - a man no one had ever heard of before six months ago but was suddenly basking in the spotlight of directors clamoring to hire him and starlets begging to be seen with him.
You could have been out with your friends celebrating your birthday, but your agent had insisted that this would be much better for your career; he was definitely going to be getting a very unpleasant phone call in the morning.
After Brad disappeared, you sat yourself at the bar and ordered a drink; it was less humiliating than the press seeing you alone inside the theater, which would have surely been the only headline in tomorrow morning’s paper.
You briefly thought about calling your friends to meet up at The Roxy, which had been the initial plan for the evening, but ultimately decided against it. Nothing could salvage the evening now; maybe you’d have better luck next year.
The ice from your second drink had all but melted, and after the leftover contents were consumed, you were ready to get out of there. The exciting climax of the movie would be happening soon, and once again the lobby would be swarming with press and London’s finest celebrities, not to mention Brad - who had probably found another woman to have clinging to his arm during the film. You didn’t need to see that.
As you thanked the bartender with a warm smile and placed a generous tip in his jar, your thoughts returned to the two men Brad had been talking to just before he disappeared. One of the men, the older gentleman, seemed pleased as punch to be there, but the other one - the tall, dark and devastatingly handsome one - seemed like he’d rather be literally anywhere else; it was exactly how you felt about this ridiculous event.
And God was that scowl on his face sexy; but then again, everything about him was positively delicious. His piercing green eyes had threatened to set the room ablaze as he looked around the room, and when he wasn’t scowling, he was smirking.
It was a very confident smirk, and he deserved to have it. He certainly knew how to wear a tuxedo, and you were sure he looked even better underneath it.
Just thinking about it was enough to make your heart race, and the warmth of arousal was beginning to unfurl itself in your core. It was too bad the most gorgeous man you’d ever seen had left already; perhaps you would head to The Roxy after all, to find someone to take you home tonight…
“Leaving so soon?”
Your breath faltered as you turned to see him standing next to you. He looked exquisite - casually leaned against the bar, one ankle crossed over the other, and one hand in his pocket as he raised an inquisitive eyebrow in your direction. You couldn’t believe this was happening, that he had appeared so suddenly and he was looking right at you.
“I suppose that depends on whether something exciting is about to happen here,” you replied with a shrug and met his inquisitive expression with one of your own.
The man chuckled and cleared his throat as he turned his attention to the rows of liquor displayed behind the bar. “And I suppose you wouldn’t think helping me decide on a drink would be very exciting…”
His voice was smooth as silk - polished and refined, and it made everything he wasn’t saying so much more intense. You could see his eyes in the mirror behind the bar, hungrily roaming up and down your form as he paused, and you knew he was thinking about all the things he wanted to do tonight.
And when he turned back to look at you, it was like you were the only other person in existence, like you were the only thing that mattered. “…or would you find that exciting?”
That look was sinful, intoxicating, teasing. It made you forget all about wanting to get out of there before the movie ended. It made you want to do anything to keep his attention, and so you sat back down on the barstool and crossed your legs as you leaned closer to him.
“Surely a classy man such as yourself knows what he likes to drink?” you replied, hoping he enjoyed being teased as much as he enjoyed teasing.
The man laughed again and shook his head with a charming smile on his perfectly-crafted face. If you didn’t know any better, you would have believed a God had sculpted his features with a careful and delicate hand, that only something majestic could have styled the dark curls on his head. He was perfect, and you were dying for him to ruin you.
“Well, I’ll be honest - I just wanted to know what you were drinking, so I could invite you to have another with me.”
He didn’t wait for a response, and immediately unbuttoned the jacket of his tuxedo as he sat down next to you. His long legs were splayed wide as he gazed at you, and he had the kind of thighs you wanted to sink your teeth in.
The white shirt underneath the jacket was stark white and perfectly pressed, save the ruffles running vertically from his throat to his waist. There weren’t too many men that could pull off that look with the same confidence and charm, and you found yourself wondering who he was and what he did for a living.
He had to work in the entertainment industry - fashion, maybe? Another actor? You wanted to know everything about him, from where he grew up to how many different ways he could make your toes curl.
“What a clever, classy pick-up line. I’m truly impressed,” you murmured playfully as you beckoned the bartender over.
The man narrowed his eyes, and his perfect lips curved into a teasing smirk. “I believe it worked, did it not?”
You shrugged innocently, bringing your fingertips to fondle the necklace dangling around your neck. His gaze followed your fingers with a hungry expression, and he opened his mouth to say something else when the bartender interrupted to take your order.
“Yes, me and my new friend…” you paused and tilted your head at him, a silent plea for the man to finally introduce himself.
His expression shifted briefly to uncertainty, as if he wasn’t sure that he wanted to give you his name at all, before resuming his confident demeanor as he met your gaze once more. “Loki. Pleased to meet you.”
“A pair of Slow Screws for me and my new friend, Loki,” you smiled at the bartender before returning to your new companion for the evening. “That’s quite an interesting name, Loki. Scandinavian?”
“Something like that. And you’ve got quite an interesting drink order,” he replied, leaning closer and sliding his arm along the back of your chair. “Tell me - do you usually share Slow Screws with complete strangers?”
His voice was low and husky, vibrating at all the right frequencies and sending shivers of excitement down your spine. It took all of your willpower to not mount him on the spot.
“Only when it’s my birthday, and I’ve been abandoned by my jerk of a date,” you answered, though truthfully you were glad he disappeared if it meant you got to know this man a little better.
Loki’s brow twitched and he looked away; it was an odd reaction, one you hadn’t anticipated. Did Loki know something about why Brad had left, and was he not expecting you to bring it up?
The bartender returned with your drinks, and you were grateful for something else to focus on for the moment. Freshly-squeezed orange juice and gin swirled around the tall glass as you brought it to your lips and took a not-so dainty sip.
Loki glanced over and smiled as he followed suit, then set his glass down and began tapping the bar-top with his long and surely skilled fingers. “You know I, um…was speaking with your date earlier, and I promise he didn’t ditch you. Something very important had come up, and…”
Loki glanced over at you again, his green eyes sparkling as if a thousand distant worlds were burning up inside them. He had an unparalleled mysterious aura around him, like the weight of the entire world was resting on his broad shoulders.
“If he sent you here to keep me company in his stead…” you interrupted, brushing your fingers across the back of his hand as he tapped mindlessly on the bar-top. “…then I’m glad he left.”
That seemed to be enough to make him forget about all of his earlier troubles, and a confident smile graced his features once more. “Well, I couldn’t leave a beautiful woman all alone on her birthday, now could I?”
Loki rotated his hand underneath yours, and his fingertips lightly traced along your inner wrist, sending your heart rate skyrocketing. He leaned closer to whisper against your ear. “So how does the birthday girl want to celebrate then, hmm?”
Your breath hitched, and it felt like the rest of the world stopped except for the two of you. You wanted to spend your evening dissolving into pleasure, screaming his name, breaking your bed - but this man clearly loved innuendos and teasing; it was foreplay for him, just as much as it was for you.
“Well, I’ve always wanted to try…a Slow Comfortable Screw Against The Wall,” you answered softly, knowing he would understand that you didn’t necessarily mean the drink.
Loki’s arm slipped around your chair once more, dragging his knuckles down the back of your arm. “Is that how you like it?”
Your eyes widened, and your heart thudded painfully in your chest. But it was worth it if it meant he’d do it, so you nodded as you bit your lower lip.
“Slow…and comfortable?” Loki continued, whispering softly and letting his lips brush against the cartilage of your ear.
Swallowing back a moan was the hardest thing you’d ever done. Your thighs pressed together, squeezing them against your already wet cunt and nodded again.
“What about against the wall? Do you like that too?” Loki brought his other hand up, tracing the angle of your jaw with his fingertips and turning your face closer to his.
Your lips parted as your nose brushed against his, and you silently pleaded for mercy. Your pussy was already throbbing and clenching around nothing, and if you didn’t get out of here soon, you were going to explode.
A simple yes was all you could manage, and Loki immediately took action. He pulled a few bills from his pocket and tossed them on the bar as he stood up, and you absolutely could not believe your luck - that he came back, that he wanted you, that he was going to take you exactly the way you wanted.
You quickly followed him to standing, and your knees almost buckled underneath the weight of the adrenaline and hormones carving their way through your veins. Loki placed his hand on your lower back and guided you swiftly through the crowd that had returned after the movie’s end.
And you didn’t even turn your head as you passed by reporters milling about in the lobby, wondering where the hell Brad Wolfe was.
As you stepped outside, Loki’s hand slipped from your waist to grab your hand and pull you after him. You thought he was going to lead you to a cab, but instead, he turned down the alleyway beside the theater.
“Wait - where are we going?” you giggled in anticipation as he squeezed your hand. Did he have his own vehicle parked somewhere back here?
Loki turned around and yanked you closer, wrapping his arms around your waist as he continued backing down the alleyway. “I’m giving the Birthday Girl what she asked for. Remember?” he murmured against your lips as his hands splayed wide on your hips.
You couldn’t take the wait any longer and crushed your lips against his. Loki’s groan was deep and powerful as he eagerly returned the kiss. His lips tasted like gin and lust, and his hands gripped you tightly, pulling you all the way against his body.
Your hands found the lapels of his tuxedo jacket, pulling on the material as you parted your lips around his. He eagerly slipped his tongue between them as he started to walk you backwards.
Loki towered over you, even with your heels on, and soon his lips were moving down to your neck, sucking on the delicate skin as his hands slid down to squeeze your ass. You gasped, and immediately started to unbutton his tuxedo jacket.
He hummed an approval against your neck, and his hands grasped your ass harder, making you grind your hips against his. “I thought the Birthday Girl wanted it slow and comfortable, hmm?”
“Changed my mind,” you whispered breathlessly, opening the jacket and untucking his shirt from his pants. “I need you now…”
Loki grinned as he pushed you against the wall, trapping you between the firm, cold bricks and his firm, warm body. “Ah, so you’re an impatient Birthday Girl,” he growled against your lips.
This new tone, so wild and animalistic compared to the opulent and sophisticated one he had used back at the bar, was more than enough to make you forget that you were in public, that he was a stranger, that if anyone saw this then your career would be over. But you were being driven by pure lust at this point, and nothing else mattered anymore.
Your lips met again, moving frantically against each other as your tongues and hips writhed together. It was incredible that your bodies and minds were already so in sync with each other - when you moaned against his lips, he’d groan against yours, and when you gasped, he’d exhale in a deep hum that threatened to drive you insane.
He pulled the strap of your dress down as you untied the knot of his bowtie and began to loosen the buttons of his shirt. Loki kissed his way down your neck and you arched into his touch, even as your hair snagged on the bricks behind you.
You quickly slipped your arm out of the strap, and Loki slid the top of your dress down to your waist, exposing your breasts. Your nipples hardened from arousal and the cold evening air, and Loki leaned down to take one between his lips. You moaned out loud in response, encouraging him to keep going as you spread your legs to grind against his thigh.
His tongue flicked against your stiff nipple as he sucked, and your fingers curled tightly in his hair as you hooked a leg around his waist. Your hips gyrated wildly against him, soothing your aching clit as you chased a release.
“Oh, yes. Keep going, love,” Loki groaned against your skin and shifted his hands to keep you balanced on one leg, gripping your hips tightly as he brought his face back up to yours.
He pushed his leg further between yours, watching eagerly as you continued grinding against his thigh. You gasped and moaned breathlessly, each one louder than the last as the alleyway faded away and all that remained was the stranger bringing you ethereal levels of pleasure.
“Yes, that’s it. Come for me, dear,” Loki rasped as he brought his lips over to your ear, and his teeth nipped at the cartilage as he spoke. “I’ll give you more - as many as you wish…”
You could barely hear him as blood pumped frantically through every vein and every nerve ending prepared to fire off, but it seemed as though he was getting as much pleasure out of this as you were. What a blessing this was - it was your birthday, and this man only wanted to make you come.
You gasped as your orgasm washed over you, sending endorphins and molten lava through your veins. Your fingers dug into his neck and shoulders, and your leg shook and wobbled as you died and reborn anew.
Loki moaned with you as you came, his hands grabbing your hips to keep them rolling against his thigh. Your eyes rolled back into your head and unintelligible whimpers of pleasure tumbled from your lips. And just as the orgasm started to fade, his hands slipped around the back of your thighs to lift you up.
Somehow you managed to lock your arms around his neck as he held you in the air, and he hooked his forearms underneath your knees as your bare back scraped against the brick. It hurt so good, and you buried your face in his hair, breathing in his scent and savoring the way he was going to ravage you.
Loki grabbed your ass as he rolled his hips against yours, both of you moaning in unison at the skin-to-skin contact. His heavy exhales washed over your skin as he panted against your jaw, and you were still trembling from the aftershocks of the first orgasm when his cock slid inside you.
He groaned in pleasure as he pushed deeper within your soaked cunt, and your toes curled inside your shoes. You hadn’t even seen his cock yet, but you could feel just how perfect it was, how perfect he was - and you couldn’t help but squeeze as he bottomed out inside you.
“Such a tight and lovely little thing,” Loki hissed as he started to thrust, slowly at first but quickly increasing his pace. His hips rocked back and forth, and your fingers scratched at his scalp to beg him to keep going.
He held you in the air, easily supporting your entire weight as he drove himself into you over and over. It was like magic, he was like a benevolent God of Pleasure, and you would forever worship the ground he walked on as long as he continued doing this to you.
You buried your face against his shoulder to muffle your cries of pleasure as he filled you up, and his lower back arched as his thrusts became frantic. You moaned his name and he moaned yours, and his fingers gripped you tightly as yours dug into his neck.
“Yes! Come for me, darling!” Loki growled against your ear as he adjusted your hips, pulling them away from the wall. His thrusts became urgent, and this new angle allowed him to move deeper, pressing against the most sensitive flesh that other men could only dream of reaching.
You crossed the threshold again, coming even harder than you did the first time. Loki grunted like an animal as he made his final pushes inside you before following you off the edge. Your thighs shook as his hips bucked, and your muscles squeezed every ounce of pleasure out of him.
The sounds he made were sinful, and it was almost enough to keep you going. Neither of you were on Earth anymore; floating in the cosmos, higher than you’d ever been before, your hips writhing and mouths gasping for air as you came together.
You don’t know how long you stayed like that, but eventually your bodies became still, and you could feel his lips pressed lazily against your jaw and his eyelashes fluttering against your cheek. “You have no idea…just how much…I needed that…” he murmured breathlessly.
You could feel the gravity of his words bringing you back down to the ground, and while you didn’t know what he was referring to, you wished that you could. “I’m glad you convinced me to stay for that drink then…”
Loki chuckled to himself as he pressed his forehead against yours and carefully pulled the strap of your dress back to your shoulder. His fingertips were delicate as they traced along your collarbone, and as his eyes traveled up to meet your gaze, you could see a thousand lifetimes of sadness hiding behind them.
“Thank you…for the drink, and the birthday present. Maybe we can do this again for your birthday…” you continued with a smile, hoping to be able to see him again soon. You didn’t know if he needed the reassurance, but you wanted to give it to him anyway.
He didn’t respond at first, and you gently caressed his cheek. This evening was too magical to not let it happen again, and you prayed that he felt the same.
Loki’s expression was one of anguish as he turned his head to kiss your palm. He let out a heavy exhale, and forced himself to look at you again.
“Yes. Maybe we can…” Loki smiled as he gazed into your eyes, and your heart ached as he leaned down to kiss you once more.

Mother knows best
MINORS DNI
-Lisa/Reader, NSFW, Cunnilingus, Pussy drunk!Lisa, overstimulation, Mommy kink, etc…

“Let Mommy take care of you.”
Kinktober 2
It was a tiring day, and Lisa was taking out her stress. And what better way to relax than to eat her beloved out?
You didn’t even know how long it had been, maybe a few hours. She was sucking on your clit as if it was the most exquisite dessert ever. Her hair was a mess from how you tugged and pulled. The room was filled with the scent of sex and whimpers. Your voice was gone from the loud pleas you gave her. The mage was hitting all of your sweet spots, as her hands rubbed circles on your hips. You clenched your things around her head, breathing becoming heavier as small whispers of “right there” left your trembling lips. She took one of her hands and prodded her fingers to your cunt, smiling as she began to suck your bundle of nerves. A rough moan drew out from your throat, arching your back as her fingers pounded into you.
It was too much.
“You can do one more, right?” she muttered against your puffy lower lips, sending vibrations to your core. You nodded eager, as you craved that release despite being sensitive. She made a small ‘tsk’ before following along with,
“Use your words, dear.” a teasing tone lingered as she spoke, and of course you obeyed.
“Yes, Mommy!” you responded, a little too enthusiastic. Though, quickly shutting up as you noticed your small slip-up. Her eyes widen from hearing the title, and soon gives a teasing smile.
“Aw, I’m your mommy? Let mommy take care of you then, sweetie.” Lisa indulged in the label. Diving back down into your pretty cunt, licking every spot. Your vision becomes temporally blinded as you climax, tugging at her head with clenched thighs.

✧°˖────———- ・・・・・ . ☽ ‧₊˚ ···╮
Papa Ghoul Headcannons
╰┈ ‧₊˚ ☾. ⋅ ・・・・———-────°˖✧
So, I absolutely love the AUs were the former Papas, Primo, Secondo, and Terzo are resurrected as ghouls. Mostly because I adore the ghouls (I practically only post about them xD) but I love to play around with this idea and how each of them would react, which elements they would have, and how they adjust to this massive change.
So without further ado! My ramblings on the Papa Ghouls!!
⭑・゚゚・*:༅。.。༅:*゚:*:✼✿ ⛧⃝ ✿✼:*゚:༅。.。༅:*・゚゚・⭑
Resurrection Rituals are some of the most common, but most delicate rituals the Ministry preforms. The simplest resurrection ritual the Ministry preforms is the one done on Nihil during rituals when the old man needs to do a killer saxophone solo. There are more permanent rituals, often guarded by the Clergy.
Sister does have access to the permanent ritual but due to the rest of the Clergy, she cannot return her three sons back to the living. At least not while she was alive. The moment Copia became Frater, he gained access to this ritual and was desperate for his brothers to return. They were stolen from him after all, before he even learned he is their youngest brother. In his excitement and inexperience, something went wrong. The only common trait each former Papa has is their face paint, now permanent markings on their faces and their infernal eye.
⁺‧₊˚ ཐི⋆ 🜃 ⋆ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺
Let’s work backwards and start with Primo. Primo was the last killed and the last resurrected and he came back as an Temporate Earth Ghoul. His appearance, like his brothers, changed with this new infernal form. He’s grown taller, his hair longer than ever before and while at first, he didn’t have antlers, they eventually grew in and man he hated when they were covered in velvet. It was even worse learning to walk on cloven hooves. He has a deep hatred for tile floor now.
Because he came back as an Earth Ghoul, he did get a small change in behavior. He can’t stand being inside, and has been caught sleeping outside in his greenhouse, which he has been working hard to restore.
Compared to his brothers, he’s the most at peace with his loss of humanity. He never liked being human, never since he lost his beloved Elizabeth Ghoulette. He adjusted pretty well to his new form and is the rock his two younger brother needed.
When he saw how Copia had brought him and his brothers back, he was in shock. He never knew this could happen, that a human can be transformed into a ghoul after death. He still has no idea how Copia did it.
⁺‧₊˚ ཐི⋆ 🜂 ⋆ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺
Secondo was the second killed and went down fighting. He actually successfully killed the ghoul who beheaded Terzo before being killed himself. Because of the viciousness he displayed and fury he felt, he came back as a Fire Ghoul. His appearance didn’t change much, once bald, always bald. But he is covered in intricate skeletal patterns that matches his face paint.
His behavior has gotten more aggressive, but calms down with a very good sparing match, which he often gets with a very happy Alpha when he saw his Papa is back.
Secondo claims he doesn’t care that he isn’t human anymore, but everyone knows he can’t stand it. He never treated his ghouls well. He was taught ghouls were just servants, only being summoned to spread the Ministry’s message. And now he is one of them, and he can hardly stand it at time. Primo has been working with him to come to terms with his new form.
Secondo’s reaction to Copia bringing him back to life was that of anger and confusion, mostly due to the whole ghoul thing. He did state that while he was glad to be alive again, he wasn’t happy at all that Copia messed up the ritual.
⁺‧₊˚ ཐི⋆ 𝓠 ⋆ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺
And finally Terzo. The first killed, beheaded by one of the Clergy’s ghouls. All he felt when he was executed was fear and confusion. He never knew he was about to be killed. When he came back, he came back as a Quintessence Ghoul, possibly due to his deep bond with Omega, which what got him killed.
He was miserable when he came back. Unlike his brothers, he came back with two new limbs in the form of half feathered bat wings, that ached like hell for the first few weeks. And holy shit he was horrible with his element. When Copia had brought him back and he saw that he was no longer human, his element did get out of control. One zap of his quintessential energy and Copia was down for five hours.
Terzo, at first, didn’t mind being a ghoul. He was raised along side them after all with Omega’s mother being the maternal figure he needed as a child. The problem started when he saw himself in the mirror for the first time, and all he could see was a young Nihil staring back at him. He ended up scrubbing his cheeks raw in a attempt to wash his permanent markings away, and only stopped when Omega stopped him. He’s been a bit self conscious about his looks ever since.
When first resurrected, he was in immense pain due to the new wings that sprouted from his back. He actually shattered his glass coffin with his transformation and with his unstable element, almost every quintessence ghoul in the Abbey knew something had happened. Omega was the first to arrive and hasn’t left Terzo’s side since. The two did have a little Odysseus and Penelope moment with the song “Would You Fall in Love with Me Again” from EPIC: The Musical.
After Terzo was feeling well enough to be up and moving, and had that crash out over looking even more like their father, he did have some words with Copia, which lead to him being grouped with Phantom to learn to control his element. Cant have him pressing the snooze button on anyone around him every time he has an outburst now, can we?
⁺‧₊˚ ཐི⋆ ☉ ⋆ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺
Bonus! Copia as a ghoul!! While Copia still remains human in my headcannon/au, I cant leave this rat man out! Now, it’s difficult for me to choose an element for him, so I can imagine him as a multi-ghoul. The elements I can see matching him the best is fire and air, with him displaying traits of a desert fire ghoul and a oscine air ghoul (I’ll make a post on Air Ghouls soon! ;3)
Copia, as we know, is an anxious, goofy, but at times a scary man. Desert Fire ghouls while still dangerous, are the most skittish of the fire ghouls and often don’t want to fight. Oscine Air ghouls can be pretty goofy, and with Copia’s little dances he does on stage, like his twirl for Dance Macabre and the famous “Wobble wobble!” Clips, it fits him well.
If he were to turn into a ghoul, this boi would be beyond anxious, fearing that he may loose himself but his pack, his Impera Ghouls, would be his fortress. He is the only human to be truly accepted into a ghoul pack after all.
⭑・゚゚・*:༅。.。༅:*゚:*:✼✿ ⛧⃝ ✿✼:*゚:༅。.。༅:*・゚゚・⭑
And those are my headcannons for Papa Ghouls! I do plan on writing fics about these headcannons! Hell, I already have one published called Lunette! Give it a read on AO3, link here! Its short but sweet! Till next time!!

☾ Lan Wangji's names etymology
Here's a complete post on the etymology of our beloved Lan Wangji's various names. I've always appreciated how authors would give out names that fit their characters so well, which is why I chose to share this.
▷ Lan Wangji Master Profile.

Birth Name - Lan Zhan 藍湛
Lan 藍 (lán) – blue. In Chinese, Lan 藍 is literally blue.
Zhan 湛 (zhàn) – clear, deep. In Chinese, Zhan 湛 from 湛蓝 (zhànlán), azure blu
Lan Zhan’s formal name Zhan 湛 means deep or clear, without impurities. It is often prefixed to the front of the word “blue” to describe the color of sunny cloudless skies, azure. Wangji’s birth name 湛 (zhàn) derives from the 诗经 (Classic of Poetry), one of the Chinese ‘Five Classics’ dating back to the Zhou Dynasty and a core pillar of Confucian thinking, studied by scholars to this day. The common meanings of this word are “deep” or “crystal clear”. The phrase 湛清 (zhànqīng) is often used to describe a transparent personality or state of mind that is in its purest form, with no distractions or obscurities. The name is really perfect for Wangji, as the phrase 湛深 (zhànshēn) can be used to describe a person displaying profound knowledge and/or mastery of skills in a complex field. 精湛 (jingzhàn) also means to be deeply proficient and skilled at something, normally used to address masters and pioneers. Interestingly, 湛 has another pronunciation, dān, which means “happiness” or “indulgence”. A third, rarer way of pronouncing the word is chén, which means “to sink” or “to make extinct”. I think the multifaceted nature of the character 湛 perfectly embodies the deep and complicated being that resides within Wangji.
Birth name is rarely used by anyone other than close family members, teachers, and elders in the family, clan, or sect. Using it implies either a certain type of intimacy or a certain type of seniority over the person being spoken to. Side Note: The fact that Wei Wuxian addresses Lan Wangji as Lan Zhan so early on in their acquaintance would be considered rude.
Courtesy Name - Lan Wangji 忘機
Wangji 忘机 (wàngjī) – to be free of worldly concerns (a Daoist phrase) Wang 忘 means to forget. It may have negative connotations in English because it’s associated with a passive disease and loss of treasured memories. In Chinese, actively forgetting can also be a positive renunciation of worldly troubles, so the character is somewhat more romantic than an English speaker would assume. Ji 機 / 机 is typically used in common speech to refer to machines, mechanical things, opportunities, and worldly things that have many parts intricately connected with each other. In more metaphysical discussions, it implies the intertwined destinies and sophistication of the mundane. To forget the secular calculations and intricacies of the world is to live freely and without distractions; as an antonym of precision, it has heavy Taoist flavors because of its seclusive connotations.
There’s an interesting story behind Lan Wangji’s name. It comes from the last line of a poem by acclaimed Chinese poet Li Bai. The sentence reads “我醉君复乐 陶然共忘机” (wǒ zuì jūn fù lè, táo rán gòng wàng jī), which translates to “I become drunk and you’re merry; in our happiness we forget about all worldly matters”. In my mind, this scene perfectly brings to life Xianxian enjoying a jar of Emperor’s Smile with Wangji in the Cloud Recesses after his resurrection when he is no longer concerned with the vanities of the world. “Wangji” is a Taoist phrase that means “to hold oneself aloof from the world”. The direct translation is “to forget about worldly crafts”. Chinese fans often describe him as “一尘不染” (meaning not be soiled with even a particle of dust) and “不食人间烟火” (a Taoist phrase now used to describe a person who has otherworldly qualities, who does not associate himself with ordinary temporal matters).
The courtesy name, in The Untamed, is given early on. In many wuxia/xianxia novels, characters don’t receive their courtesy name until they are adults. This is a name friends, acquaintances, and peers (those of equal standing) use.
Title - Hanguang Jun 含光君
Hanguang Jun 含光君 (Hánguāng-jūn) 含 (hán) – to hold, to bring 光 (guāng) – light 君 (jūn) – honorific for a gentleman or man or noble character
Hanguang Jun is a title that praises Lan Zhan’s integrity. Jun 君 is a character (literally “lord”) with multiple meanings, but here it is attached to the end of a name to show respect. Wangji’s title directly translates to “noble bearer of light”. 含光 (hánguāng) is also the name of one of three of the most powerful swords in Chinese history/mythology, said to have been under the care of Shang Dynasty emperors. Its blade is described to be invisible, and a mortal cannot see it being wielded with their bare eyes. Later interpretations during the Warring States period described the three swords as symbolic stages of a person’s journey to finding the Taoist path, with Han Guang being the final stage of ‘preparedness to enter the Way’ (入道合体之状). The characters HanGuang 含光 separately and literally mean “hold/envelops light”, and in the novel, it is taken from a widely circulated legend about several of the main characters, which specifically goes like this about Lan Zhan: 景行含光藍忘機 (JingXing HanGuang Lan WangJi). The first two characters are taken from an ancient collection of poems, and describe a person of upright and faultless disposition. The next two characters, Han Guang, refer to a harboring of light. For me, it’s not the light part that’s interesting, but the state of harboring that defines the most significant cultural nuances. It is (or at least was) considered a form of virtue in China if you don’t flaunt your brightness in other people’s eyes; so the polite thing to do, if you’re brilliant as flames, is to shield that light so you aren’t so in-your-face about it.
The title is just what it says on the box. It is used to express respect, but also a certain amount of distance. Side Note: The young disciples of the Gusu Lan call Lan Wangji Hanguang-Jun because it would be disrespectful for them to address him as Lan Wangji, as they are not of equal standing. When Wei Wuxian returns from the Burial Mounds, he addresses Lan Wangji as Hanguang-Jun because he wants to distance himself from their earlier intimacy to prevent being questioned about his methods.
Extra thought:
I must give props to Lan Wangji’s actor Wang Yibo. Early reactions from the Chinese audience had some unfavorable reviews that criticized his lack of facial expressions, but later retracted their opinions, because they realized that he was actually doing a superb job with his eyes and his body, considering the limitations. The script gives him very few lines in most episodes. You can see how he looks directly at anyone in the eye unless he’s about to kill you, or (later on) if you’re Wei Ying. If you don’t know him well, he seems unconfrontational with those cold shielded eyes, but as soon as you step over the line (sometimes a line named Wei Ying), you’ll feel the sharpness of that fierce light in his eyes like a blade to your throat. Just ask Fairy the spiritual dog...
Author Note: I am not an expert in Chinese at all, English isn't my native language either - I hope everything is correct.

I finished Prodigy!
I’m so thankful the creators didn’t give up on this show and that Netflix saved it!
This show did so many things right.
It felt like the stakes were always high yet without having to worry about pointless deaths for shock value.
It invented a new species on Solum that we had never met before and made us care about them.
It brought back beloved characters (Janeway, Chakotay, The Doctor, Wesley, Beverly) while still focusing on the new main characters.
It tied into the live action shows seamlessly while still forging its own future and story.
And while it may take my brain a while to unravel all the time travel shenanigans (I didn’t take Temporal 101!), I was too swept up in the story to worry about it!
It did what good Star Trek does and left us with hope.
Now, where are the Murf in a Starfleet uniform plushies, because I want one! 😄
