#the show with the thieves and the polycule

[brionysea]

Parker during The Runway Job, listening to Eliot brag about having sex with a fashion designer: *Gets mad and storms off while he looks on fondly*

Me, on first viewing: That's kind of odd... Parker doesn't usually care about that stuff, and the show doesn't usually portray Eliot as the kind of disrespectful guy it's worth the female characters getting mad at.

Me now, with the context of "Parker is upset that Sophie left" + "that opens the mental floodgates to the potential of more people leaving her" + "Eliot being slow to admit his place with her and Hardison to himself while Parker rolls her eyes at him" + the retroactive context of "Parker's bottle-smashing jealousy over Hardison talking to some girl": Ohhhhhh

Polythieves Mug Collection (Part 2)

Last time, on the collection of mugs at the phantom thieves' household: it was very sweet and sappy, with themed choices for their code names.

You can find it here

THIS TIME

It's time for more gifts, memes, being silly, and finding weird mugs

This is absolutely one of Akira's favorites

Yusuke, meanwhile has this set of mugs

(The coffee goes in the one labeled "paint water" while "not paint water" is, in fact, the paint water)

Yusuke and Ann both have matching "Hot Chick" mugs, as well

The thieves love to fight over this one, Akira gives it to whoever has done Hot Girl Shit the most recently. He likes giving it to Sumi, but the others all compete to win it

Someone outside the polycule mistakes Ryuji for being straight, and soon enough he gets to be the DILF holder. They have 0 children when he gets this mug

Another popular one! Akira hands it to anyone else with the joke "I've never had anxiety in my life" and then it's promptly that person's turn to smack him for such a bold-faced lie

Makoto. It's very true.

A gift for Ryuji, another favorite of his

Yusuke finds the jug (jean mug) at a qaint roadside market and instantly falls in love with it. He knows exactly what do to with it. He presents it to Futaba.

Futaba (very much a trans girl) goes "Well it would be nice to finally have jugs" and Yusuke completely missed that implication until then

This one goes to Yusuke. Obviously

And another for Makoto!

A joke spiraled out of control ends up with Akira being the sexy senior citizen, after Yusuke jokingly calls him "grandfather" once

Often given to Haru, or whoever has commited the most recent Women's Wrongs

Another of Akira's favorites. He lets Morgana steal it sometimes

It's very important to note that certain mugs can be chosen and used to send messages to other thieves depending on circumstances, for instance:

Dick. Either Akira is mildly pissed at the person, or he's flirting. Potentially both!

if he is VERY annoyed, they might face this mug

Though the one with the bee movie script is a good indicator if he's annoyed. Or if the person he's giving it to is Yusuke. Yusuke loves literally every weird mug ever

When Goro Akechi is around, especially early on after he shows back up, Akira gives him the "Guess I'll die" mug. He might be a little mad about the constant deaths.

Which, however, is not as bad as THIS ONE, a favorite, that Akira was holding when he encountered Marki one time. He does throw it, it does hurt, it does break on the ground. He's justified

(They get a new one later)

Morgana also gets Catmander in Chief

Akira passive-aggressively drinks from this mug when Goro is around

Shrek mug. No one will admit to buying it and placing it there. (It was Sumi, she's so proud of not being caught yet)

This one OFTEN goes to Ann

A VERY fun one for Haru

They actually get Akira this during that period of time where he's legally dead

This one is just so funny it has to be there

Goro gets the Official Left Handers mug

This one for sure goes to Futaba

Sometimes you do not question the mug. It says run, you run. It goes to Ryuji

And Of course, last but CERTAINLY not least,

World's greatest slut.

(Akira always tries to keep it, but SOME PEOPLE demand their turn)

Most mugs taken from @shiftythrifting or like, the internet at large.

I am at image limit and currently out of mugs to share but if I find more then more may come! If others want to contribute PLEASE do so!

MEGLIO STASERA, BABY, GO GO GO!

CROSSOVER TIME.... MESSY CONCEPTING SKETCHES AS IT HAUNTS ME.

Going off of a concept from @halftoning for amnesiac isekaied Guybrush stuck in the Sam&Max verse- as "Guy" or "Journalist Guy" who finds himself as an investigative reporter, specifically reporting on the cases of Sam&Max.

We also have Agent Nelson Tethers. After the disaster in Scoggins involving assault of government agents and destruction of government property/a government secret weapon, instead of being fired or locked up, he was scooped up and made the assistant of Agent Superball. Now he's in charge of following up on the cases of Sam&Max, helping tie up loose ends and assisting in cleanup.

The two cross paths and decide to teamup/share information, as both are hunting down a certaim loose end... Sam&Max may have caught the museum thieves of the pyrite parrot, but just who was hiring them? Who is behind the demand, and what other seemingly random burglaries may be tied to this, and what does a forgotten legend about an undead pirate king have to do with anything? The red strings of both conspiracy and of fate are at play...

The dream team that would absolutely destroy Taskmaster (the show), meshing together so well- Of unflappable calm matched with boisterous energy, the ability to find the most precise straightforward answer matched with the ability to find the most out of the box and strangely clever answer. A puzzle solving dream team- instead of personalities clashing, they end up as complimentary foils to perfectly balance each other out. Autism king and ADHD king.

It's also about this sorta vibe

And if you recognize what redraws those polycule poses are from, you get some cotton candy!

Gay wrongs tournament, round 3 of the minor bracket

*TLT art by @denndrawings , used with permission

Propaganda:

For the TLT polycule:

Power thruple at the helm of an evil empire! But more importantly, playing complicated power games on one another while trying to subtly murder the teenager they adopted to save their failing marriage

baby trapped god (john) so they could use the baby to unlock a tomb that was imprisoning the soul of the earth in a convoluted attempt to murder god (he deserves it though)

For Mick Rory and Leonard Snart:

The only supervillains on that show that understood the assignment. Thieves with a flare and loyal only to eachother. Eventually become anti heroes on legends of tomorrow but I liked them best as villains. The best part of both shows. Over the top and committed to the theme for the vibes. Puns and crime.

Fire and ice pairing!

FILL IN WITH DETAILS ABOUT YOUR MUSE AS IF THEY WERE A CHARACTER IN A DATING SIM.

NAME — niwa daisuke / dark mousy

PROFESSION — azumano middleschool student / great phantom thief ( dai-kaitō )

WHERE THEY CAN BE FOUND — azumano schoolgrounds, niwa family mansion grounds, art-rooms, museums, public gardens, never in the same place as dark. / museums, shady alleyways or backstreets, creepy woods, abandoned and solitary spaces, y'know the works. never in the same place as daisuke.

FAVORITE FOOD TYPE — you want heart points FAST?? get them fruits. get them chocolates, pastries, candies, anything sweet. share with daisuke and/or handfeed dark. otherwise, they'll happily settle for any kind of refreshing drink, from light like something carbonated to thicker, like a milkshake. they suuuuuck at handling spicy. senses are shared, so whatever one eats, if the other's awake, they'll be able to taste it. you can spoil or kill 'em both hehehehehehe

FAVORITE ALCOHOLIC DRINK — nonalcoholic! if they walk into a bar daisuke's asking for a tough guy glass of milk or ice water from the tender. dark might go for something sparkling and (of course) sweet. daisuke's a good enough kid that being underage is a big concern of his (as well as one that dark respects since his body's always on loan,) but the two of them as phantom thieves never wanting to risk dulling their senses is another part of it. if they get drunk and Something Happens, they're ultra cooked.

WHERE THEY WOULD GO ON A DATE — wherever their date wants to go! they're happy quite literally anywhere as long as it's by someone else's side. likewise, since they're both pretty squeezed for time 24/7, it's best to schedule dates with them in advance. they'll always sort things out and swear on their heart(s) to show up for anyone who wants to do anything with them, no matter what it takes. and trust me 'cause they won't say it but sometimes it takes a Lot like at least one or two near death experiences before they show up??--

IDEAL GIFT — dark vc at a time like this, a beautiful smile is all i need ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) <-- unfortunately true, the ideal gift for him and daisuke is genuinely someone else's happiness around him. (but only because they fret that it isn't possible for them to truly make anybody happy.) if you absolutely have to give them something physical, giving things related to daisuke's hobbies (art supplies, gardening supplies,) is a great idea (he'll definitely give you something back at some point!) while for dark, articles of clothing and accessories like earrings, rings, belts, etc, are a good pick. (he'll wear 'em to his heists and all that glam'll get on cam.)

HOW MANY DATES UNTIL THEY KISS — WILDCARD!!! depends entirely on the levels of trust, comfort, and whether or not the other person knows the secret of the niwa family's curse/transformation. expect the number of dates on average to be enormous, though. dark will never kiss someone before/without daisuke's proper acceptance; daisuke will never kiss someone for as long as he's afraid of them finding out about his turning into dark. likewise, daisuke Cannot Kiss without turning into dark. could be just five dates could be ten bajillion. kissies could come never for as long as you don't accept the weird monster bf polycule rotation.

pasted from my deviantart babeyy

After the sisterhooves social episode, Big mac started to quickly realize that orchard blossom was  a lot more than just a fun one time persona. Less than a month later she came out to her younger sisters as trans and was accepted with overjoyed and open arms! She officially changed her name but still goes by Big Mac as a nickname since she finds it to be moreso a term of endearment from her family rather than a deadname. She is much more talkative and participates in the social with both of her sisters yearly now! Her friendship with cheerilee had been long standing and after coming out they started spending even more time together as cheerilee's younger sister Jasmine Leaf was also a trans woman, it gave blossom a space to speak to someone she felt truly understood her. Troubleshoes and Sugarbelle came to ponyville around the same time, sugarbelle to work at sugarcube corner for confectionaries and clyde for his traveling roadside show. Sugarbelle and Mac had met before, not unlike their canon show counterparts, but the whole incident with featherbangs never happened. A friendship sparked between them and not too long after sugarbelle, cheerilee, and orchard blossom were inseparable. On one of their days out they stumbled across Clyde about to leave town and move onto the next, asking him if they could see his show before he left, to which he obliged. All 4 ponies genuinely enjoyed themselves and after finding out that clyde was essentially homeless, Blossom offered him to stay at sweet apple acres for a while to rest up outside of the small caravan he pulled (that he couldn't even fit into). What was supposed to be a week turned into a month as all 4 became thick as thieves, n eventually decided to be in a platonic polycule! They all wanted kids but never really had interest in romantic relationships, so they decided on each other and to raise their family as friends. Sugarplum came first, with carolina not too far after. Cortland was the youngest n is planned to be the last of the family's kids. All of the kids understand their parent's relationship n the entire family couldn't be happier. 

Name: Carolina Cherry Nicknames: Carrie (most common), Sunshine (Blossom) Parents: Orchard blossom and Troubleshoes Clyde Siblings: Summer Sugarplum, Cortland  Body type: big and s t u r d y girlie Species: Earth pony-shire horse Special Talent: Soul Music Singer Voice Claim: Jurnee Smollett-Bell

Carolina was the second kid to be born to her family, even if it was only by a year. She was a huge baby and by the time Orchard Blossom was 6 months pregnant she could barely stand! From birth her parents could tell she was going to be a very big pony n boy was that an understatement, by the time she was in elementary school she was about the size of a full grown mare give or take a couple inches. In her adulthood she's about the same height as her pa clyde, though she insists she's 3 millimeters taller (she may be!). Despite her threateningly large stature, Carolina is the definition of a gentle giant. She spends a good majority of her time volunteering for events like the grand galloping gala and the summer sun festival, putting on free shows in ponyville, and giving free lessons to any foals who are interested! Carrie is an extremely talented singer and is well known throughout equestria! She often gets personally invited by the princesses to attend special events as the entertainment alongside huge names like songbird serenade, they insist on paying her but she refuses every time. With a voice on vinyl you'd expect Carrie to live in the spotlight, when she's quite the opposite; She much prefers to stay on the farm and work with her family, tending to her one, giant cherry tree that is a beautiful sight to behold come springtime. She planted it as a filly and, being an earth pony, it grew incredibly fast under her care. Everypony in ponyville eagerly awaits the harvest in which Carolina makes the most delicious cherry Jam that can be found in Equestria! Carrie's best friend since fillyhood is Tender Morning, after her visit to sweet apple acres (see- Destiny is but a suggestion) the two quickly bonded over a love of music and all things glittery! They have a few duet songs on vinyl in which morning sings under her pseudonym "thunderbird". Morning doesn't want anypony knowing she's the other voice to the duet, and the name helps as it causes ponies to assume that thunderbird is a Pegasus. Carolina happily keeps her best friend's secret and whenever asked she cheekily says, "I wish I knew!"  She's very close to her sibling Summer Sugarplum. Most ponies assume they're the younger sibling due to the height difference, and Carrie is quick to correct them. Summer defended Carolina often in their schoolfoal days, she was often bullied for her height once other foals realized she wouldn't fight back. Ponies quickly realized that despite being shorter than average, Summer was a force to be reckoned with and got suspended on multiple occasions for physically fighting others for bullying their sister. Despite the drastic difference in size Carolina and Summer still wrestle over who will do the dishes that day. 

Name: Summer Sugarplum Nicknames:Summer, Sugar, tiny (Tshoes) Parents: Cheerilee and Sugar belle Body type: Short mare with an average build Species: earth pony Special talent: Flower Baker Voice claim: Maggie Heath

Summer Sugarplum was the first born to their parents even if it wasn't by much. Cheerilee and Sugar belle offered to have the first baby as they were less likely to have complications throughout the pregnancy. After spending a few months pregnant Sugar belle popped out Summer! They were a preemie baby and scared their parents a little with how small they were, but the doctors assured the parents that their filly was just fine. Sugar was quite the firecracker in her young years, much to the surprise of her parents. She'd always been exceptionally calm but the moment ponies started picking on their younger sister it was like they were a completely different pony. Upon graduating Elementary however, Their docile and friendly nature returned. They came out as nonbinary somewhere around age 12 and is happy with both she and they pronouns. They love their family to bits and are planned to be the next in line to take over sweet apple acres after applejack once honeybee made it very clear she wasn't interested. Summer is a flower baker, finding ways to incorporate normal and exotic flowers into their pastries and coming up with original recipes that have won them multiple awards. She's close with pinkie's family for this reason and considered them to be a second family of sorts, being overjoyed when her younger brother and pinkie's son poprocks were born on the same day. They always go out of their way to check on family members and even makes it a point to attend as many of whiplash's shows as she can despite being an earth pony. Summer was actually the first pony that Honeybee Harvest confided in about her feelings regarding herself and her family, which is why they offered to take up being sweet apple acre's future matriarch instead. Honeybee is extremely grateful and Sugarplum is the only one of her cousins she is particularly close with. 

Name: Cortland Apple Nicknames: Cory, Quinn, Lil mac (general apple fam) Parents: Sugarbelle, Cheerilee, Orchard Blossom, and troubleshoes body type: Just a little guy species: earth pony special talent: ???

Cortland is the last of the group's kids, and sequentially the biological kid of all four! Through some trial and error, and help from Twilight, the family managed to combine all 4 of their DNA into one foal (which Cheerilee happily carried). Then came Cortland "lil Mac" apple! Cory is adored by everyone he meets with his sweet and eager-to-please personality, many members of the Apple family remark that he's a lot like his late grandpa bright mac. He's only a foal and doesn't have his cutie mark yet, which doesn't bug him one bit! He and his best friend Pop Rocks, who he happens to share a birthday with, plan on finding out what their cutie marks are together, whenever it may happen! Cortland is often mistaken for a filly due to his long hair n bright eyes but he doesn't much mind it. He loves interacting with every member of his family in every way he can, helping Sugarbelle at the bakery, cleaning up cheerilee's classroom, helping Blossom in the orchard, Attending his big sister's shows, the world is Cortland's oyster and he is determined to crack it open!!

my favorite persona 5 fics

a while ago i made a post that listed all the fics i'd read over the course of my first year in the persona 5 fandom that i enjoyed. i've been thinking about making a post of all the fics i've read since then, but i actually decided to do something different this time. if you want a complete list of every fic i've read and enjoyed, check out my bookmarks on ao3. this, on the other hand, is a list of only my absolute favorite fics. i will continue to update it as i read more fics that i love.

these are the fics that occupy my thoughts to this very day and changed my perception of these characters. that made me cry and laugh and changed me forever. in no particular order, without further ado, these are my favorite p5 fics of all time.

Daredevil, You've Hit the Wall

A Persona 5 Strikers rewrite with Sumire and Akechi. Cookie is a phenomenal writer, and she'll be showing up on this list at a later point. Her characterization of both Akira and Akechi are absolutely godly, and their arcs in this fic are incredibly satisfying for someone who loved Strikers but was left disappointed by the lack of Akechi.

Read this if you like Akira angst, want to see Akechi improve himself and befriend the Thieves (and all the complications that come with that), like Strikers (or don't like Strikers), or love akeshu. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Love is a game (and I only play to lose)

The worst possible outcome to the Interrogation Room. This one is Dark, but the akeshu is absolutely phenomenal. Definitely heed the tags, this one isn't for everyone, but I was hooked from beginning to end. While I don't normally read Hurt No Comfort, I am very glad I gave this one a chance.

watching all the stars burn out

Are you in need of some incredible Royal Trio polycule fluff and angst? Would you like to read some of the most in-character fic I've ever read? Are you in need of a good cry today? Well, then have I got a fic for you!

This is a beautiful, heartwrenching, very sweet Royal Trio polycule fic that takes place during the final week of January when Akechi tells Sumi and Akira about his impeding demise early. It's so good. I cried. You will too. And if you're scared, I promise there is so much fluff here too. My babies,,,

Interminable Ballistics

Time loop of the interrogation room scene. Akira and Akechi are Not Okay. This fic makes me go hnnngh it's so well written the prose is beautiful and everyone is so in character it hurts. I love my bois please someone get them therapy.

goro akechi's waxed asshole

Ehehehe yeah well. This one is nsfw, but it doesn't actually have a whole lot of sex. It's more of a character study than anything, and despite the title and crack concept, is actually really beautiful and sweet? If the title doesn't scare you off please check it out I promise it is incredibly good.

The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

AKESHU PIRATE AU!! Goro is a prisoner at a lighthouse and Akira is a pirate. The ways the author plays with their backstories in this AU is fascinating. I'm obsessed with this version of Akira and Goro and I really really wish a sequel existed that explored Sumire because my god-

If you like AUs, pirates, angst, and themes about self loathing and redemption, then check this one out. I think about it constantly.

Flight through fall

Okay....this one is probably the heaviest of all the fics on this list. Severe trigger warning for suicide, self harm, and medical stuff. It's...a lot. But it is also very very good. Akira is Not Doing Well after the events of Royal, and Akechi showing up in his life only makes things worse. This fic is not for everyone, but I personally found it very cathartic and poetic, to the point where I read it two times in a row.

Once More, With Feeling

Another akeshu timeloop, but this time, it's the day of the engine room scene. (I really like timeloop stories.) And then halfway through it also becomes a Palace fic (I won't say whose for the sake of spoilers). I love the characterization of Akechi and Akira here. The way they both handle the time loop is so very Them. It explores ideas of redemption, guilt, and finding a way to move on. I love this Akira so much please someone give him a hug <3

Falling Up

This is one of the only short one shots that have made such an impression on me to make it to this list. Akira and Akechi in the third semester. Akechi has...Feelings about having killed Akira. I don't want to say too much else for fear of giving too much away. Please read this. It's short and powerful and beautiful.

why don't we spin the wheel

Sae Niijima has a cognition of Akechi, and he's really fucked up. Please make sure to heed the warnings, this one's pretty violent. The exploration of Akechi is phenomenal and I think about the ending (and the rest of it) all of the time constantly.

When it's over, you're the start

Everyone starts to forget Akechi ever existed. This longer one shot made me fucking cry. It's so mean, incredibly mean, but don't worry, it has a happy ending. Nothing can erase the power of akeshu.

Please Don't Take My Sunshine Away

A what-if Mamakechi didn't die, but instead was kidnapped by Shido and her suicide faked? The characterization for Misato (Mamakechi) is sooo good, and while this fic does travel some dark places, it ultimately does result in some heartwrenching comfort for both Goro and his mama. I love this fic so fucking much, Misato is such a fantastic interpretation of Goro's mother and the the angst is sublime.

the first step to find your way is to mark where you have been

The best Akechi Palace fic I've read by a landslide, to the point where it's inspired my own Akechi Palace fic quite a bit. I had my kink awakening thanks to this fic (while reading That Scene in the middle seat on an airplane. Sorry, strangers). It's mostly an Akechi character study and an incredibly good one at that. I wish it existed as a game. It did what p5t did with Toshiro with Akechi and it did it so incredibly well. This fic makes me insane. Read it.

Fools Rush In

Akira speedruns Akechi's confidant in a day. This is one of the first fics I ever read, and when I did, I went "this is it. this is Them." The characterization is *chef's kiss.* I'm running out of new ways to compliment incredible writing help-

Pleasant Boy

This fic should be required reading for all Goroboys. No one is allowed to have an opinion on him (especially in third sem) before reading this fic. Akechi is actualized by Maruki in third sem, and Akira hates it. I love this fic so much. It heavily inspired code violet and changed the way I look at and think about Goro forever and ever I love it so much read it read it read it

it takes a village

Or, as I like to call it, The Akechi Fic. I legit had a major hyperfixation on this fic to the point where I read it three times in a row. It's more or less a NG+ where everyone remembers except Akechi. It is quite literally everything you could ever want from an Akechi redemption fic. After reading this I wondered if I ever needed to read another fic about him in my life because everything I ever wanted had already been delivered. There are so many moments in this masterpiece that make me go completely insane. This is my favorite fic of all time. Read it. Read it read it read it Please

My 100% orginal persona 5 royal trio slice of life show

The Persona 5 Royal trio are in a polycule relationship, they move into an apartment together and there is only 1 bed! Whatever shall they do?

Anyways, the show is a very slice of life by day and phantom thieving at night (after school tbf)

They have this very noisy neighbour, Mrs Tachibana who not only thinks that they're up to no good (somewhat correct) and hates the phantom thieves with a passion, she has a kid name Hiroshi (or Hiro) who is obessed with the pt (similar to Akane's)

Whatever should they do now?

WTNV quick rundown - Live Show/164 - The Faceless Old Woman

Read the rest here!

Featuring the voice of Mara Wilson as The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In All Of Our Homes

CW: emetophobia (also there's a lot of insect mentions but I forget what that fear is called so cw bugs I guess? sorry~ )

I am the faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home...

This live show we hear from the FOW. She is the only one we hear during this episode/live show.

The FOW feels fear when noticing three elderly residents living in a single house. She is not sure at what time they are or will be there because time is still weird for her, but knows that they scare her. She thought at first they were in a polycule but the residents have their own rooms and don't speak to or even look at each other. They also don't actually sleep despite going through the ritual of it and aren't afraid when she reveals herself to them.

One has deep scar tissue around an ear. One has no tongue. One has a bad tattoo with poetry written underneath it. They all inspire fear in others when seen and ignore each other whilst showering somehow leaving completely dry towels behind.

At meal time they all make seperate meals (still ignoring each other) and attempt to consume it only to vomit it up in a single watery fountain and begin again to try and consume the food. One of them gets tired of this and throws their plate through the kitchen window before punching out the glass despite it cutting them badly. They howl in sadness and their neighbour, Susan Wilman's lemon tree dies, it's fruit dropping down and bursting open showing meat-like flesh inside.

The FOW realises they are the three people she's been talking about, except they are dead (or will be dead) and each of them will be trapped in that house together yet not together as ghosts unable to move on.

She ends by saying she plans to start showing herself to everyone.

Weather: None

The resident with the tattoo is Toni. The tattoo was given by the FOW using the metal rod from Toni's fondue set. Toni wants to be a poet but currently works doing direct marketing selling high interest credit cards. The FOW enjoys putting various insects on Toni's face and taking pictures of them, which she plans to eventually exhibit in Toni's living room. The tarantula she placed on their face bit them causing swelling of the eyes.

Adi, wanted for murder in another state (but ironically not the murder they actually did) goes on House Hunters to get the house they will eventually live in. They left their family, friends and girlfriend of two years behind. They had a dog, but it was arrested for peeing in the dog park. The FOW put a woodboring bettle into their ear and this is why they are heavily scarred there after their death.

Morgan does not pay the standard 20% and often yells for a manager over the smallest issue. The FOW cuts out their tongue and feeds it back to them in the soup they later orders at Applebee's. They are the resident who moans and wails after breaking the window.

Someone else directly mentioned is Alex. They have terrible wifi and are asked if they've done their taxes on time. They also apparently had a yellowing lettuce in their crisper. The FOW makes herself a salad, using up all of Alex's parmesan cheese and replacing it with dead skin she's collected.

The FOW writes how, when and where everyone will die in the back of journals and notebooks they own but people tend not to read them, except for Jonathan Franzan who is also not going to die.

The FOW also mentions replacing a Community Players' fake poison for the end of Romeo and Juliet with borax.

The FOW is over 200 years old, was born in another country, spent some time amongst thieves and then later upon death spent time under the sea. (the book about her explains it more but alas I do not have it).

She advises that we all Tweet too much.

I am the faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home. And your home. And your home. And every home. And I will be seeing you very, very… soon.

Proverb: Never judge a book by its cover, judge it by the title page instead.

The ICPO won't compensate him for a new shirt :c

[sergeant-angels-trashcan]

i get being upset about the shenanigans redemption pulled with the ot3 and i am upset too, and i get that it’s a weird inconsistent thing for eliot to do unless he’s finally experiencing post concussion syndrome and his brain can’t compute that parker and hardison actually want him all the time, and i do get being mad about it but also

like

yall. it is still scandalous to see queer representation in a lot of media, period, because being gay is too unbelievable or too adult or too distracting or too present and you don’t want to alienate your viewers (yes i am talking about supernatural. and star wars. and marvel. and disney.)

and i honestly could not tell you a piece of media that incorporated polyamory in a positive way that isn’t sense8. i think there was a show about sirens that might have had polyamory in it? oh, wait, professor marsten and the wonder women, that had polyamory in it. and say yes to the dress had a polycule in an episode this season and i was fucking floored that they had them on!! because i could not remember a time when polyamory was shown in a way that was “these people are normal, doing normal people things” and not “these people are scandalous and taboo and it’s all about sex and obviously this is unhealthy and unnatural and balanced normal people wouldn’t want this ever” on tv!! the first time i ever learned about polyamory was on a show literally called taboo!! is there polyamory representation that i’m missing somewhere? this is a very real possibility but as far as i’m aware polyam visibility happens so infrequently that the bar for polyamorus rep on tv or in movies is so low that it doesn’t even exist.

but i digress. the point i’m getting at is that people do watch the show and manage to not get (or deliberately ignore) the ot3 because of their beliefs, experiences, etc etc. and leverage redemption was probably sold to amazon as “a reboot of a beloved heist show”, not “polyamorous thieves make the world a better place by eating the rich”. maybe i lack imagination, but i literally cannot fathom a world where amazon, fucking amazon, would go “we want to throw our whole weight behind this ~*unconventional*~ relationship. totally go with it”.it’s. it’s fucking amazon. sometimes even now i sit with that for a minute, that jeff bezos’ company is financing a show that the entire premise is “fuck billionaires”. the fact that amazon greenlit this is unreal. 

and for people who miss or ignore the ot3--the show gave us an entire subplot that was “this romantic interest for eliot is incredibly well suited for him, is kind but also badass, they’re like a better version of mr and mrs smith” and also said “this person, who is ostensibly perfect for eliot, is someone he can never truly be himself with” and then went on to have eliot describe his ideal partner while next to parker and hardison, who fit eliot’s criteria, and are smiling knowingly at him before assuring him that they will be with him forever--and not just in a passive way. they are actively planning for a future with him. 

there must be some people who watched redemption without watching leverage first. for them, eliot and maria’s relationship was like a leverage original speedrun: eliot is happiest with parker and hardison, who are equally happy around him, and they all want to hang around each other for basically the rest of their lives.

honestly, that’s pretty fucking crafty.

Tahmira AKA “Mantis”

Tahmira was adopted as an infant by a polycule of five and raised on their farm. She is the oldest daughter of fourteen kids, some adopted some not, and grew up helping deal with the animals on the farm and learning to make fabrics from her parents. On the trips they took into town to sell their goods her parents would occasionally stop by the gladiator arena, and Tahmira was hooked. After the first show what pocket money she had was spent on tickets to see the shows, and she decided then and there she would join the arena one day. Sadly the pocket money dried up as the family struggled to make ends meet, and at age 12 Tahmira and five of her siblings (aged 16-11) were given to the monks of the temple one of her parents used to train with. It was supposed to be temporary, but Tahmira did so well at the temple when her parents came to collect her she chose to stay behind.

When she finally felt she’d learned enough to debut, she traveled back to the city and tried out for the arena. She was accepted, given the stage name Mantis for her fighting style and chain scythes, put into a ridiculous leather outfit, and teamed up with Hornet as a heel duo. The two fighters bonded over Hornet sharing some gifted baklava with her after a match, and they were fairly successful as a duo. Mantis’ solo performance however was not so successful. The whole silent and cocky yet slightly feral antagonist character didn’t really work without another heel to play off of, and after a few years she started to feel like she was holding back her friend's performance. One of her few fans, a noble human man and head of the city guard, offered her a job working for him as a bounty hunter. Mantis said goodbye to the arena and her friend to put her fighting skills to use bringing in criminals. Along the way she started up a secret relationship with her new patron’s son, which ended quite poorly. She decided to travel instead, picking up bounties as she went, and ran into Hornet and joined up with her little group.

Tahmira AKA Mantis Zariel Tiefling / 25 Years old Way of the Open Hand Monk / CN Urban Bounty Hunter FORMER Gladiator

STATS AT LVL 6:

Saves - Strength, Dexterity Equipment - Simple weapons, short swords, monk Weapons

Tools - Thieves’ Tools(from bounty hunter), Weaver’s Tools(from monk), castanets(from bounty hunter) Equipment - Explorer’s pack, Set of clothes for hunting, pouch with 20gp, sickle, chain sickle, 10 darts Languages - Common, Infernal

RACE/SUBRACE NOTES: Medium +2 cha / +1 strength Darkvision 60 ft Fire resistance Spells use Charisma Cantrip: Thaumaturgy @ lvl 3: 1/long rest - Searing Smite (lvl 2) @ lvl 5: 1/long rest - Branding Smite (lvl 3)

PERSONALITY: Traits- I would rather make a new friend than an enemy. The best way to get me to do something is to tell me I can’t do it. (Hold her beer, she's gonna try it.) I love a good insult, even one directed at me.

Ideals- Chains are meant to be broken, as are those who would forge them. Material goods come and go. Bonds of friendship last forever.

Bonds- Those who fight beside me are worth dying for. I’m trying to pay off an old debt I owe to a generous benefactor. (She still feels a little guilty about her relationship with her previous patron’s son, and knows his social standing was damaged slightly because of it. She wants to do what she can to make it up to him since he was so kind to her.)

Flaws- I have a “tell” that reveals when I’m lying. (The tell is just Her. Her face, tail, eyes, all of it. She’s just too damn obvious. Hornet always knows she’s lying, and Mantis tends to just run instead of trying to lie to her.) I can be short sighted and myopic, pursuing a single goal tenaciously, while overlooking other peripheral matters. I have a tendency to be unintentionally insulting or boastful.

EXTRA FLAVOR What’s her love language? Sexuality? Gift giving, acts of devotion, and quality time are the biggest ones. She is a pretty touchy person in general though. Mantis is poly/pan! Currently unattached but has some annoyingly persistent feelings for Cricket. She ends up bunking with him a lot, and he dances with her, calls her his dance partner, occasionally shortens it just to partner. Look, can you blame her for catching feelings? He’s way out of her league though so she’ll stick to pining during their sleepovers and going out at night to bring in extra bounties to avoid him until she can look at him without wanting to confess again.

What visual queues would Hornet have to figure that Mantis fancies Cricket? The tip of her tail wiggles when she looks at him (she’s trying to keep it from outright wagging), and if he’s performing she doesn’t talk during it, but also tries not to look directly at him either (if she does look she knows her face will give it away). She also always looks for him when she enters a room, and looks vaguely disappointed if he isn’t there. When he's talking she may not always know the word he uses, so she bought a little pocket dictionary and will glance at it later.

What kind of gifts does Mantis like? Dark liquors, wood/bone bracelets or earrings, roasted/spiced nuts, honey or fruity candies, and basically any carb in existence but especially bread. Honey bread is the very best. Hornet would know her favorite gift she got when she was a gladiator was a bag of candied oranges, and she was so happy her tail was wagging and she was churring loudly.

How does Mantis feel about chocolate? She prefers it very dark, and more as an enhancer then the main star if that makes any sense. Like chocolate covered candied oranges would be her first choice of a chocolate treat. Plain chocolate would be less interesting but still appreciated. Mantis honestly is easy to impress. Most gifts would be fawned over just because they bothered to give her a gift thinking of her.

Does Mantis like wearing chokers? Not at all :D They activate her flight or fight response, and sadly this girl is all fight when it comes to this. The noble guy she dated after leaving the arena used to put her in a collar during their Play Time, which was okay the first few times and then progressively got Bad. The first time he ignored her safeword she broke the chain, decked him, and left. Now she can’t wear anything too close to her neck or she starts to get a bit of an adrenaline rush.

- Lupin: 🤑🤠💍  These are all oneshot ideas, between 5-15K each. If you want to vote for a specific idea, send me the emojis and the number of the idea.

Born from the idea that Goemon and Zenigata probably couldn’t be an item, my brain decided to come up with how I could write for them. Goemon’s teaching an ikebana class as part of his training, and Zenigata shows up as a student on forced recreational leave for his health from the ICPO. Zenigata wins the samurai’s heart through flowers. But what happens when Lupin and Jigen find out? (Only good sexy things, I promise. These beans are in a healthy polycule--be gay, do crimes) (WIP)

Jigen/Lupin, but it's Jigen deciding to seduce Lupin while wearing his own Lupin disguise. The thief is waaaaay too into it, and some artistry is taken with the sex so that they don't mess up the disguise too much during their encoutner.

Jigen/Zenigata/Lupin where Jigen has some fantasices about Zenigata, but is pretty sure they'll never happen. Tells Lupin about them. Suddenly the fantasies are coming true, in the middle of a heist, and Jigen doesn't what to do except get swept up in the moment and enjoy. Plot twist, it's Lupin dressed up as Zenigata granting all his gunman's dreams. Plot twist again, Zenigata catches them at it.

Zenigata/Lupin, where Lupin keeps doing good things in illegal ways and Pops has to find a way to punish him for it. Good thing for Pops Lupin's a masochist?

Trans!Lupin and Trans!Jigen premise: Jigen cares for Lupin after the master thief has top surgery, since Jigen has Been There and Done That. Caring, sweet, and a little sexy. Lupin is a much better patient than Jigen.

The one time Zenigata caught Lupin in an alley and kissed him and it was Jigen in disguise. Things get sexy anyway, and Zenigata has crushes on two thieves now. Lupin and Jigen "kidnap" him later for an evening of taking care of their inspector.

The background plot of Jigen's Gravestone where we see Jigen think he's done for and try to leave Lupin. Our thief has none of it, and we get to relish in the inherent eroticism of Lupin sitting in sniper fire, knowing Jigen's got his back. This is the moment I think Jigen finally believes he can be with Lupin forever.

I love the idea of something longer and more plot driven like a Lupin special where Lupin ends up in hot water and Jigen and Fujiko have to work together to save him. Jigen and Fujiko have such an interesting relationship. They're both partners of Lupin, they don't really like each other, they constantly screw the other over, but when it really matters they take care of each other. I'd like to see that highlighted a little more and also give them space to call each other out and bicker. Nothing sexy between them, but maybe a really interesting threesome with Lupin and Fujiko in a strap on once they save their boy.

- Sonic Vampire Novelist Coffee Shop AU: 📚☕💐

Shadow is an immortal vampire who has seen the world change for the worse too many times. These days it feels like he only lives for his coffee dates with Rouge, another immortal who loves each new era they encounter, warts and all. He has to admit that the book series she got him into speaks to him, at least. If someone in this era can understand him without meeting him, it can’t all be bad. But he hardly expected the goofy blue barista at the new coffee place to understand him the way those books do.

This is a novel length romcom romp with some big feelings about what it means to watch as things change, grow, and die. Expect lots of Big gothic feelings from this one, emotionally charged kissing, and overly-adoring sex. But also expect shenanigans from everyone in the coffee shop, which include Rouge, Amy, Tails, Knuckles, Cream, and more.

- Sonic Blazamy, "Like the Sun": 💖🌸💎

Amy Rose has been in love with Sonic for a while.

Or has she?

When the Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and Silver are trapped as the fuel sources for Doctor Eggman’s newest evil scheme, Amy teams up with Blaze, Rouge, and Cream to save them. With Sonic out of the picture and Amy fulfilling his role, was she ever really in love with him? Or did she just want to be like him?

This is a novel length epic romance with lots of competent women and lots of romantic Blazamy content. Expect flowery hopes and dreams, badass self-actualization, and glancing hand touches that give way to cuddly and sweet sex.

- Persona 5: 🗡🍛☕

After bringing down the Metaverse twice, Ryuji didn’t think graduating high school and figuring out what to do with his life would be so hard. Akira’s back in town, and the gang’s more-or-less all in Tokyo, but everyone else seems to have a plan while Ryuji just floats. How’s he supposed to change the world when he’s not a phantom thief anymore?

This is a novel length fic that addresses how powerless one can feel being just one person in the face of all the corrupted systems and bigotry the world has to offer. It’s about holding on to what you believe in, working through the doubt, and fighting your way to a better tomorrow with the power you do have. The whole gang is queer, featured relationships being Mako x Ann, Ryuji x Akira, Futaba & Yusuke as platonic life partners. Akira is polyamorous and omnisexual, Futaba’s asexual and aromantic while Yusuke is demisexual and very romantic, Makoto’s a lesbian, Ann and Ryuji are bi, and Haru’s pansexual, demisexual, and aromantic. They’re one giant band of queer Phantom Thieves, and even if they’re not really doing the Metaverse thing anymore, they’re still gonna save the world!

Also, I’m gonna make Makoto not a cop. That super didn’t age well. Zenkichi and his boss can work on making them better/abolishing them for other better organizations.

- Hades Game: ❤️‍🔥💀

Oneshot. I just really need to elaborate on the threesome you can have with them in-game, okay? Healthy and canon poly relationships are so few and far between, so often I have to do a ton of groundwork to explain why it’s working in the fic, but NOT WITH THESE KIDS!

Get ready for Meg helping Zag and Than be better at expressing their feelings, lots of kissing, and probably pegging.

- Castlevania Animation Trevor/Sypha/Alucard: 🧛🏰🛌

Castlevania gave Alucard a threesome last season, and I just really need S4 to give me him being taken care of by his partners. They’re probably not going to give it to me, so I’ll need to do it myself. This is just an everybody loves Alucard oneshot, with the gang’s signature banter (to an extent), Sypha being sexy, and Trever being remarkably sincere. This fic is gonna feel like that Ann Hathaway picture with Trevor kissing Alucard and Sypha holding the end of Trevor’s whip while she leans her head on Alucard’s shoulder adoringly.

- Devil May Cry Nico/Lady/Trish: 💋✨😈

Nico’s gay, okay? Like really, really gay. And Lady’s bi and not into men who make her pay bills, but very into women who make amazing guns for her and demonesses with hearts who fight by her side. Trish is ace, but loves people and is pretty attached to Lady at this point. Plus it’s cute when Lady blushes and says nice things like they’re insults. I don’t have super solid ideas for them yet, and I envision these more like a polycule where Lady’s with Nico and with Trish but they’re not with each other more than seeing it as a threesome, but who knows what might happen. This is probably 1-2 oneshots depending on ideas, but might turn into a series of oneshots if people are interested (or I can’t control myself and inspiration strikes).

- Post FMA:B Blind Roy & No Alchemy Ed: 👀👑🙏

This is actually an old novel-length fic I wrote ages ago and didn’t post that didn’t turn out well because I was new to writing sex when I first wrote it. The plot is good, and is all about Roy learning to work with his blindness to reclaim his ambition of being Fuhrer and changing the system to something that actually cares for its people. He and Ed reconnect, fall into bed, and both set about working through their respective traumas about being “useless” having lost their sight/alchemy. They go to Xing as an ambassadorial party to offer Amestris’s collaboration on Al and May’s Alkahestry experiments--and uncover a plot that might threaten both kingdoms.

- Age of Calamity continuity Mipha x Revali: 🦚🐟💘

The first time Revali noticed Mipha, it was in the heat of battle. She stole his mark, taking them down with a flurry of quick blows from her spear. Violence rained from her like water--and then she healed him on her way to her next battle. No questions, no conditions, just pure kindness. The usual need to measure himself against those around him was quiet in her wake. And Revali couldn’t understand it. But how to get to know more about her? A fish and bird may fall in love, but where would they live?

This fic could be a oneshot or novel length depending on how far down the hole I fall. I need it to cover time, but it could be done in linked vignettes or with actually covering events in detail. I may elect to do a oneshot just to get it done and out of my system faster. So much fic to write, so little time.

Expect trans!Revali, polyamorous Zoras, scary competent Mipha, songbird Revali, love confessions that are made up entirely of berating Link for not loving Mipha the way she wants him to, and breaking these characters a little outside of their assigned roles in BotW and Age of Calamity. Background Link x Zelda, and Urbosa x Zelda’s Mom.

- Epic desert romance about Urbosa and Zelda’s mom: 🏜🏝⚡

I just think Urbosa should kiss women and Zelda’s mom should get more development and maybe a name or something. Also, lightning imagery/metaphors/play.

It also went way over my head that Riju wasn’t Urbosa’s daughter the first time I played BotW, so now I want to write about the Gerudo queen who refused to produce an heir. The Gerudo are fascinating and have a very interesting cutlure, but I think it could be examined from a nonbinary perspective that rejected pregnancy and wanting to find a husband. Not in like a hateful way, but in a way that examines if that’s really right for everyone. There’s that shop in town that sells Voe armor, after all. Maybe finding a husband and having children isn’t something you have to do if you don’t want to. And Urbosa really doesn’t want to.

[awkward-finger-guns]

ok im gonna infodump a bit bc i have a new special interest and it's v !!!! so basically it's a show called leverage and it's abt these thieves who band together to make a crime family and take down corrupt billionaires. one of them is autistic and there's a cannon polycule!!

!!! tell me more!! this sounds really interesting

Lupin, Jigen, and Goemon always play rock-paper-scissors after a big heist to decide who’ll give the group a striptease, and who will get showered with money. Based on a piece of fanart that is basically this sequence of events in a 4koma (except in their version Jigen loses and in mine, it’s Goemon). (written, just needs editing)

Zenigata cuffs Lupin four times, and Lupin steals his heart. Very NSFW conclusion. Zenigata is the most caring lover you’ll ever find. Lupin is as thirsty as usual and twice as intense. (written, just needs editing)

Jigen protects Lupin from poison darts during a treasure hunt in an Aztec temple, and Lupin nurses him back to help--forcibly, since Jigen is a horrible patient. Born from my desire to spoil Jigen and talk about what ridiculous domestic husbands these two are. (WIP)

Born from the idea that Goemon and Zenigata probably couldn’t be an item, my brain decided to come up with how I could write for them. Goemon’s teaching an ikebana class as part of his training, and Zenigata shows up as a student on forced recreational leave for his health from the ICPO.
