The 141 men and their favorite kisses
Warnings: None.
A/N: This is for @vikki-tikki-tavii , I hope you enjoy 💕 there’s no content warnings since I went sfw with this, but if you guys want more, you can always request it! 😉
Tumblr media
Price: John loves to kiss the back of your hands. The epitome of gentleman, he can’t deny that ghosting his lips over the backs of your hands isn’t him stalling as it’s the only form of restraint he can bear. Then, it’s quick and firm forehead kisses, a sign of safety being able to take his time and plant it there, able to run his hands over your hair one last time before departing. It’s solid, secure, and something to remember each other by when he’s gone. Eventually his semblance slips and it’s quick and desperate kisses planted firmly against each other’s lips, a needed reminder that he’s home, and you’re both okay.
Ghost: With Simon it’s different; it starts out with touches, a faint run of his hand over the small of your back, a hand lingering on your shoulder. It’s hard to kiss with the mask, after all. His favorite place to kiss you is right beside your brow by your temple. Much like his superior, it’s a firm and comforting knowing that you’re there, and things are okay. You’re both safe. Intimately, it’s the knuckles. He’ll leaving tiny little pecks as his lips ghost (haha) over your knuckles as if trying to memorize every inch of your skin with his lips. Never does he want to forget the feel of you, his rock, in moments of need when motivation is slipping or he loses himself. Kisses with him are soft and tender, fleeting, yet full of sparks.
Gaz: Kyle can’t help it as he presses quick kisses to your cheek upon departure, the affectionate action leaving lasting emotions with the both of you. He’s gentle and sweet, often opting to kiss you anywhere and everywhere he can. He doesn’t have a preference between your forehead, temple, cheeks, nose, or lips when it comes to the menial moments. Anywhere he can plant a kiss and get a reaction out of you, he relishes. Though when and if he gets a say, his favorite would have to be your lips, most definitely. Taking the time to slow down and really feel the dance of your lips against one another? He relishes the traditional sentiment of your lips being reserved for only him, and him alone.
Soap: It happens without thought, the feelings and tension between the two of you snapping when he suddenly kisses your nose. He brushes it off as a silly thing, but it’s the place that he often loves to surprise you with by planting a quick peck on the tip of your nose. Always achieving a multitude of silly expressions and reactions. If he’s leaving, he’ll leave one hell of a kiss on your lips, the passion and fierce force of his strength seeping in as he leaves you with a reminder of just who you’ll be waiting for while he’s gone. While his favorite may be the back or side of your neck, it’s something he’s not often able to indulge in. Therefore, he settles, like his comrade, for anywhere and everywhere he can kiss you.

The Patreon Post
Tumblr media Tumblr media
SO HERE'S THE DEAL: I do not want to make anyone have to pay to see my art.
Let's be real: there are like fifty bajillion other, more skilled, and better-known artists on Patreon putting out more detailed, more unique, more in-demand, and just more art than I am (or want to). I'm a self-taught, frequently distracted amateur who's had an iPad for a year. I'm not gonna pretend that I am going to be able to pull in more Patreon subs-- or keep them, for that matter-- on the strength of my random doodles alone. I have never really thought or even hoped that I could do that, because it would mean Doing Art As A Job, and I absolutely do not want to associate "drawing" with "work." (I also don't have the means, time, motivation or experience to self-promote and/or keep a small community of followers entertained, and even the thought of having to do all that on top of having to Draw For Work is terrifying.) There's the self esteem-destroying gutpunch that someone with BPD (me haha!) receives when they ask if something they created is "worth" a certain amount and are answered with silence. (If you have BPD, you know that 'silence' is so much worse than 'no.') I don't think that anyone is actually saying my work is worthless any more than I think stairs were invented to fuck over people with bad knees, but I want to avoid one for the same reason I avoid the other: hurts and bad for healing. And also, maybe most importantly, most of the fans of my work are my friends, and most of my friends are poor people. I do not ever want someone to have to choose between "Eggman weeping as he cradles a slain Speedy Gonzales" and "rent." Lots of people I know just don't have any money to spare even for professionally made entertainment, or, like me, sometimes they have money (yay, beginning of the month!) and sometimes they don't (booo, end of the month). I'm not gonna put a paywall between my friends and my art. So, as always, you can view all of my art on Patreon for free, without an account*. (*you will have to have an account to view NSFW stuff but this will be in the 'free' tier as well.) H O W E V E R. You guys I am so fucking poor. If you follow my blog you know the whole story already-- mental illness, chronic illness, chronic mental illness, surprise rescue puppies, surprise fines from the city, the fukken recently concussed clown show that is social services in my area-- and you've seen me having to crowdfund for everything from food to gas to dog emergencies. We budget down to the cent and have cut out so many things (like the meal replacement shakes for my eating disorder lol) and we're still not making ends meet. I've got friends who help, and they help a lot, but I hate the miserable, humiliating task of asking for help every single month. (You guys also know that I don't have family that can help me, even if shit goes critical. I was on my own while I was a homeless sex worker, on my own when we lived in a shed with no windows, on my own when we were in a house with no heat and only one source of running water, and definitely on my own now, in desperate need of mobility aids, house cleaners, and a god damn break.)
So here's where I'm at: I can't ask a few people for a lot of support, but I can ask a bunch of people for a little bit. If you like my art and want to help me keep making it, want to help me make shitpost replies to people on the internet, want to help me do free askbox art challenges: Put your doodle prompt requests in the askbox. You can even request stuff anonymously! Participate in polls about what prompts you wanna see. Reblog the art you like, show off the doodle you got, leave keysmashes in the tags. The more people see the post, the more statistically likely it is we'll find the one person on Tumblr with disposable income. Also, people should know they can get free art when the prompts are live! Sub to the Patreon if you can spare three bucks a month (you can also do Ko-fi if you don't want to make a Patreon account). Ko-fi is also a good place to just plunk something into the tip jar once in a while. There are Artcards and Monthly Sketch sub tiers on Patreon for a little bit more, but I will send an Artcard to pretty much anyone who asks as long as I have some left. The art is free, it will always be free. But if you can, spare a dollar (or three).

Better Bones Profile: Houndleap
"The horrifying eldritch fallen angel likes ME best because I'm hot"
Tumblr media
[ID: The Better Bones AU version of Houndleap from Warrior Cats. He is a black-and-white tom with ginger flecks in his black parts, and a fluffy white tail tuft. His ears are burned away, and he has orange, swirly keloid scars. He also has a heart-shaped paw pad.]
Here by popular request! Holy MOLY you all jumped on the offhanded manwhore comment lmao.
Houndleap's a great example of cats who are in the Dark Forest for breaking non-violent commandments. The only thing he's killing is the gene pool, with his 6 known mates and the 16 kittens between them all. No, he wasn't in love with them all either, he just liked to play the game.
He is as close to the ideal Clan cat as one can get, and he knows it, and flaunts it. Tri-colored with beautiful ginger flecks, he fell victim to a terrible moor fire and came out with severe burns. His surviving was already a great mark of strength, but then he became even luckier when his shiny scars raised, and slightly spread from the initial injury.
Clan cats didn't have a word for keloids, they only knew it was gorgeous. As if StarClan had given him a scar that dances and shimmers.
Houndleap "abused" this gift, seeing as many cats as possible and cheating on his 'official' mate back home. In the modern era, he might have just been a very popular Honor Sire, but this was before the Queen's Rights and the Aftergathering. He was eventually caught, and after his death, he was banished to the Dark Forest for violating the Law of Loyalty on more than 5 counts.
Yes. More than 5 counts. StarClan was able to see that he had even more than 5 halfclan mates (and they're not even counting the wife he cheated on) but only 5 got pregnant.
Alignment: Dark Forest, ex-WindClan
Time Period: Skyfall Era
Relations: Too fucking many
Houndleap's addition to the Dark Forest is Lover's Beck, a twisted, romantic version of a spot in the Gorge where he used to meet with his secret lovers. It's his worst memory because he planned poorly and two of them showed up at the same time and that's how he got caught.
More trivia below!
Canon said he's solid-colored and I said no. Pretty boy.
There are several minor features in his design that will be seen in modern family lines. I won't point them out but there's 3 total (so far.)
I decided to use him as an example of nearly ideal beauty standards in BB, since I famously overhauled them from canon. He is brightly colored with complicated patterns, slightly chunky, and has a HUGE scar on the face.
Personality is slut. He just wants to flirt, man. Theme song is Mambo #5 he's just like that.
He works with Tigerstar in OotS mostly because it's not like there's anything better to do. Plus some of the trainees are hot, "hellooooo Ratscar"
When Antpelt dies, Houndleap is one of the cats who needs the most convincing to come back into the alliance. It's one thing when it's funny haha Attack And Dethrone God or whatever, but PERMAdeath??
Thankfully, Hawkfrost is a fantastic diplomat.
Generally, Houndleap is motivated by whatever's fun. He was one of the first to fall in line under Ashfur and will do basically anything if he's bored.
"We're teaching people how to kill? sure lmao. Oh we're attacking the living? Ok cool. Guard the prisoners? Not like I had plans anyway. Anyway wanna get evil dinner later, handsome <3 ?"
Likes drama, tea, stories, games, anything that brings him a little excitement really.
He can usually be counted on to join whatever silly project the group's up to this time, like catching Shrewpaw's Pheasant.
I cannot stress enough how much of a normal Crummy Dude he is. He's just some standard jerkwad guy. The Dark Forest in Better Bones contains several people like him, who might be sleazeballs or jackasses, but we would generally agree don't deserve Hell.
When canon comes up with a Houndleap backstory, I'll consider what to do with it. But for now we only know that Hound came from WindClan, which I've included.

So, have this self indulgent take of Friede's POV in HZ044 ft some dialogue and scenes I wished he had. Why is it when I'm sick that I have the motivation to finish WIPs. At the very least it gave me a reason to rewatch some episodes haha
Anyway, hope this is an enjoyable read still! Spoilers for HZ044.
Series: Pokemon Horizons
Characters: Friede, Spinel, Cap
--
Aside from the wild Pokemon that quickly dispersed upon spotting their little group, Friede couldn't shake off the uneasy sensation that settled over him at how quiet the island was. Granted, confronting the Explorers on their turf wasn't ideal but they had little choice if they wanted to stop them from catching Rayquaza. Even a formidable Legendary could fall prey to whatever the Explorers had in store for it.
Eventually, Friede and the others reached the odd building. Once again, the lack of any lookout sowed further uneasiness within him. 
Surely the Explorers were alerted of their presence, or at least knew that they knew about their plans to capture Rayquaza. If Friede was in their shoes, he'd at least place multiple guards to protect the area.
Seemed like they did so with Magneton and Beheeyem hovering around the place earlier. 
A pair of Pokemon that he was very familiar with. 
Friede had a score to settle. Not only for that ambush back in Levincia but for putting Liko through an awful experience. Memory tempering was a downright deplorable act in the first place but to inflict it on a child?
Certainly a dangerous opponent that he can't underestimate. 
After a quick dash towards the singular door, Friede raised his hand for the others to stop. The other went to test the handle.
“It’s open? That can't be right,” he muttered. From what they knew of the Explorers that went in here, this felt suspiciously sloppy. With no lookout and conveniently unlocked door…
“You wait out here. If anyone shows up–” he began but Roy quickly interrupted him.
“We battle them!” Liko too nodded in agreement to Roy's response.
Friede gazed at the kids. He wanted to say that they should run and hide but he found it hard to say otherwise, not when they looked so determined. Didn't he allow them to join because he believed in their strength?
(A smile subconsciously formed on his lips. Murdock was right. Kids really do grow up quickly). 
“Gramps, you look after these two.”
“Mmm-hmm, these two are in my care,” Ludlow replied.
Assured of their safety, Friede turned towards the door. “Alright, time to get in there!”
Slowly, Friede opened the door. Light spilled into the dark room, and from what little that he saw showed a completely emptied space. Cap jumped off his shoulder after a few steps in, scanning the area just as he did. 
They barely had time to react when the door swung shut. Within seconds, Friede heard Roy pounding on the door, calling for his name. He hated distressing the kids but his suspicions were proven true. 
“Heh, seems like the others missed out on your little trap,” Friede spoke into the darkness. 
“No matter,” a smooth voice responded. Friede's eyes swiftly trained onto the light emitted from an Umbreon’s rings. “Mere children are no threat to us once we've set our minds on something.”
While Friede couldn't get a proper look at the guy standing next to Umbreon, he recognised that voice all too well.
“That voice… so you finally show your face, Mr Awfully Shy.”
“Welcome Professor Friede. I've been waiting for you.” As pleasantly polite as his smile and tone was, Friede knew there was zero respect to the title he called him with. 
“I anticipated the possibility of Coral leaking our plans. This place was built to imprison you.”
“So you also anticipated I'd come here. Wow, I feel special to get such preferential treatment,” Friede replied with a small huff, lips set into a smirk. At the very least, he was the only one trapped here, sparing the kids and Ludlow from the same fate.
“Liko! Roy!” He began, eyes never once straying from his opponent. “This is the wrong place! Keep looking around!”
Initially he heard Roy's protest but that quickly died down. Good, he trusted Ludlow to keep the kids calm and guide them elsewhere. The longer they lingered, the higher the chances of the Explorers’ plans coming to fruition. 
Once he could no longer hear them outside the door, that was when Friede released a tiny exhale. With the kids hopefully far away from here, he could now fully focus on finding a way out of his predicament.
“So, just the two of us–well, I guess four if you count Cap and that Umbreon of yours. What, not bringing Beheeyem and Magneton into the mix too?” Friede drawled, one hand settled on his hip. His first course of action was to scope out this guy, see if he'd divulge in the exact nature of the Explorers' plans.
“They’ve performed their part well. I simply need to keep you here, Professor. I've determined that my Umbreon here is enough.” 
“I'm surprised. I thought you were the sort to play dirty, press whatever advantage you have.” Friede's previously light tone took on a hardened edge, feelings that he had over his first encounter with this man bubbling to the surface. “What, memory wipes are off the table now?”
“There is no such need to use that method when the present situation is sufficient.”
Friede didn't think he had a temper, rare as it was for him to get angry in the first place but he can't deny the hot surge as he snarled out, “But you'd do it to a child?”
“Oh? My, I see what it is now,” came the infuriatingly calm response. “I did not harm the girl, no? I could have approached her like I did with you but I chose to go about it in a peaceful way. If anything, you should be grateful for it.”
To his still adjusting eyes, Friede spotted the faint smirk. Briefly, he entertained an uncharacteristically violent fantasy. The sheer audacity of his lacking remorse in what he subjected a child through…
“Pika.” Cap’s brief call snapped Friede out of his thoughts. His eyes flickered to his partner, who shot him a quick glance in return. 
Right, Friede needed to remember his position. Losing his cool would simply put him at a disadvantage. If anything, this was probably a part of that man’s plan to get a rise out of him so that he'd make mistakes.
Friede took in a subtle breath, then exhaled quietly. He shoved down the bubbling anger until he slipped on his usual confidence once more. His own smirk returned, mind racing to choose his next words. 
“I'll show you how grateful I really am,” Friede steadily replied to the provocation. “Still, there's one thing that I'm trying to wrap my head around. Don't think you can answer it, do you?”
“Seems like you saw through it,” he uttered, not sounding put off in the slightest. “But I suppose I can. What's on your mind, Professor?”
“See, Rayquaza’s appearance is unpredictable in the first place. Even if you can narrow down where it'll appear, not many mons can get close to it unless they're able to fly. Even then, it's powerful enough to repel most attacks.”
Friede briefly recalled the battle Amethio’s Ceruledge had with it a while back. Even with Phantom Force in its arsenal, it still couldn't land a strong enough hit to take Rayquaza out of the sky.
“What makes the Explorers so confident that you're able to capture Rayquaza?”
“Hmph. Well, it's because we'll lure Rayquaza out using a resonance generator.”
“A resonance generator?” Friede had a vague idea on what such a device could do from its name.
“Yes. I analyzed the accumulated data and recreated the energy Terapagos emits when calling to Rayquaza.”
“Even if you can call it, do you really think you can beat it?”
“Three skilled Explorers are on the job. They will bring it down,” came the confident response.
“That's a surprise. Didn't peg you as the type to ask for help,” Friede replied. He filed away everything he learnt for future consideration. To think that the Explorers were able to replicate the energy Terapagos let out. They truly were a formidable enemy.
“Don't be ridiculous.” The scoff wasn't unexpected considering what Friede gleaned from this guy's personality. “I am simply using them. I shall acquire the black Rayquaza without even fighting it.”
Once he called out for Umbreon, Friede knew casual conversations were over. It was time to battle.
“Not if I can help it!” Friede instinctively pulled out Charizard's Pokeball before he realized a crucial fact.
“In this confined space, you cannot make use of Charizard's flight. Not let it go on a Terastallized rampage.”
“So you anticipated all of this, huh?” Friede had to concede that in this particular room, he was at a disadvantage with Charizard. His partner's strength lay in its maneuverability within the field,  allowing it chances to gain the upper hand against a grounded opponent. Not to mention, its Fire-type moves could be a bit too dangerous within an enclosed room. 
“Pika.” 
Friede's eyes went to Cap, who threw off his hat as his readiness for battle. Right, he had another strong Pokemon that could face off against the Umbreon. 
“A Pikachu? You're toying with me.”
“Heh. I've heard the same thing from someone else before.” What was it with his opponents underestimating a Pikachu? “You're gonna regret it.”
“Umbreon! Use Snarl!”
With a growl, Umbreon released red rings of energy from its mouth that hit Cap straight on.
“Don't let it faze you, Cap! Use Double Team!”
Cap swiftly jumped out of the Snarl’s path, creating multiple clones of itself to confuse Umbreon. 
“Thunder Punch!”
Cap alongside his clones surged forward towards Umbreon, his true self charging up a Thunder Punch. It almost hit the Umbreon if not for the sudden Reflect it threw up, halting the Thunder Punch in its tracks.
“Keep it up! Double Team!”
Cap once again made multiple clones of himself but the Umbreon retaliated by an exceptionally speedy Quick Attack that took out all the clones.
“Cap, meet it with a Thunder Punch!”
Still in mid air, Cap turned with a lightning encased fist towards Umbreon. It looked like the punch connected but it seemed that Umbreon used its tail to block the move. Before Cap could recover, Umbreon got behind him.
“Foul Play!”
Umbreon flipped around and used its back legs to kick Cap away with tremendous force. Friede watched his partner fly halfway across the room to hit the wall behind him, causing dust to kick up from the impact.
“Cap!” Friede called out. Thankfully, that wasn't enough to take his partner out. With a nod, he muttered, “Now, what to do next?”
“Pi Pika.” Cap drew his attention again. It was a subtle shift but Friede spotted the crack on the wall’s joint. He quickly understood what Cap meant. 
“Wanna try for it?”
“Pikachu!”
Right, with a vague plan in mind, it was time to carry it out. Friede will put his trust in Cap's endurance for them to overcome this situation.
“Cap, Double Team and get up close!”
Cap once again created multiple clones of himself to surround Umbreon. While it tried to find the real version, all of the Pikachu rushed forward with their fists raised. Friede hoped that without calling for the move, it would catch Umbreon off guard with its timing to block.
Though, the Explorers simply called for another Reflect that just about blocked Cap’s Thunder Punch. Cap was speedy enough to get away before it could retaliate with Foul Play. It certainly was foul in the way it used Cap's strength against him.
If Cap can't connect with close ranged attacks, perhaps it was time to switch it up.
“Cap, keep your distance and use Thunderbolt!”
Cheeks sparking, Cap quickly fired off a Thunderbolt towards Umbreon–only for it to dodge using a Quick Attack. Umbreon solidly connected against Cap to send him flying back, and due to Cap's position, he went straight towards Friede.
Instinctively, Friede braced himself to catch his partner. The force knocked the wind out of his chest, though he remained on his feet. Cap quickly jumped out of his arms to look up at him, concern swimming in his usually confident eyes. 
“Heh, don't worry about me Cap. You know I've taken much worse from you before,” Friede assured his partner. While he did feel twinges of pain from his torso, it wasn't anything he couldn't handle. He had taken harder, electric fueled hits from Cap back during their first meeting after all.
Cap nodded once and turned his focus back to the battle at hand.
“My, you're quite hardy, Professor.”
“Comes with the territory of studying Pokemon,” Friede quipped. Before he could say any further, loud explosions were heard from outside, strong enough that he felt the vibrations within the room.
“Seems the black Rayquaza has shown itself.”
If that was truly the case, Friede had to escape as quickly as possible. He trusted Ludlow to look after the kids, and while they've grown to be capable battlers in their own rights, the likes of Rayquaza were still too much for them.
“Cap!”
Cap quickly charged up another Thunder Punch but Umbreon swiftly countered it with Foul Play. After a quick block with its tail, Umbreon kicked Cap away, sending him flying towards the wall again.
Friede gritted his teeth from the impact. It was hard to watch but he trusted Cap. His partner dashed past him with a Thunder Punch charged up, one that Umbreon once again responded with Foul Play.
“We’re not done yet!” 
This cycle repeated itself, ending with another hard crash against the wall. Cap took a moment to stand up this time, the damage clearly taking its toll.
“Are you just stalling for time? This battle's going nowhere.”
“Correct. You are powerless here,” was the confident reply, arms spread in grandiose. “You cannot even hope to escape.”
Friede certainly hated that infuriating smile of his. As much as he wanted to wipe that off, they can't stray from the plan.
“Don't give up, Cap! Keep at it!”
Thunder Punch met Foul Play once more, resulting in another crash from behind him. Friede clenched his fists, casting a quick glance over his shoulder. Just a little bit more.
“Your struggling will amount to nothing.”
Friede noticed that something in his tone changed. Perhaps in response to the smirk he gave, now confident that this plan will succeed. He won't give the guy time to ponder.
“That should be enough, Cap! Use Volt Tackle!” Friede ordered.
With Cap’s body encased in electricity, he rushed towards Umbreon with all the power he could muster.
Instead of using Foul Play, Umbreon used Reflect just as Friede hoped it would. Volt Tackle was just far too strong to effectively counter with Foul Play.
Friede watched as Cap turned mid rush, feet connecting solidly with the barrier. He used it as a springboard to fly towards the wall with all the momentum of Volt Tackle behind it. 
The small crack formed from all the previous crashes blew wide open from the tackle. Friede felt himself smirk as he said, “Sorry for wrecking the place.”
Without waiting for a response, Friede swiveled on his heel to make a dash towards the opening. As he took out Charizard's Pokeball, he heard from behind him: “My Foul Plays, meant to turn Pikachu's strength against it…”
“Yeah, I turned em right back at you!” Friede shot back.
He tossed out Charizard's Pokeball. His partner wasted no time in lowering itself for easy mounting, and after Cap hopped on, the trio flew to the skies.
Once they put some distance from the building, Friede took out Cap’s hat and put it on his head. 
“You showed some real grit, Cap.” Truly they wouldn't have succeeded if not for Cap's endurance. 
Now that they were past that obstacle, it was time to turn their attention to the black Rayquaza. 
“Is that the place? Hightail it, Charizard!”
With a mighty flap of its wings, they were off towards Rayquaza. Hopefully the kids were able to avoid too much trouble.

Please Don't Go
Jack Mercer x Reader
Summary: you had known Jack for years, and even gotten into a relationship. When the two of you join his brothers for their mother's funeral, you weren't expecting this outcome.
WARNING(S): Four Brothers spoilers, major character death, angst, swearing.
It had happened so fast.
While Angel and Bobby were busy interrogating Jeremiah, a knock was heard at the front door.
Curious, you had followed Jack to see who had knocked, as it was unusual for the Mercer household.
The two of you were met with a masked man, insulting Evelyn and throwing a snowball at Jack's face before beginning to walk away.
You should have stopped him. Should've grabbed his arm and told him it wasn't worth it. Lead him back to the couch to just forget about it.
Instead, you watched as he ran out towards the masked guy, anger raging through him not only because of the insult of his mom, but the snowball as well.
As you saw the man begin to pull out a gun, you found yourself running, by no volition of your own.
You heard someone calling yours and Jack's names, it was most likely Bobby. But you didn't care enough to think about it.
As you got closer, a gunshot rang out. And then another. And then multiple more.
You didn't know if you were one of the ones who got shot, and hell, maybe you were. But your focus was on your boyfriend, bleeding out and laying in the snow, calling out to you and Bobby with a rack of sobs.
You stumbled towards him, facing your back towards the shooters as if that would help Jack stay alive, though you knew better.
Your ears began to ring, the gunshots blurred with the yells, your heart thumping hard in your chest.
Your hands found themselves trying to cover his wounds as he grabbed onto you for dear life. He was scared, and not just for himself anymore.
You were actively putting yourself in danger. He was trying to get you to lay low or to find a spot in which they wouldn't be able to hit you, but that distant look in your eyes told him you weren't listening.
Almost unconsciously, you began to mumble comforting words to him. Whether it was really for yourself, him, or both of you, you didn't know.
One shot.
Two shots.
And suddenly, none.
Bobby, Angel, and Jeremiah made their way to the two of you, Bobby holding onto Jack who was now laying in your lap.
You couldn't tell what the boys were saying, but the yells were obvious. They were trying to have someone call 911.
"Please don't go." You found yourself begging, eyes downcast and cloudy as you looked down at Jack, one of your hands going through his hair in a comforting manner like you always had.
His eyes greeted yours, a smile on his face as blood poured from his throat.
"Shit, she's hit too!" Angel shouted as he noticed that the pooling blood wasn't just from Jack.
You didn't care, all that mattered to you was keeping the boy in your arms alive. But it was too late, he was gone. His skin cold against your own as your hand kept caressing his hair in that gentle, comforting way.
Darkness began to consume your sight, the adrenaline beginning to wear off as the gunshot wounds took over.
Bobby was holding your face in his hands as you felt yourself get weaker, "now don't you die on me too, ya hear?!" He cried, he was desperate. He had already lost his mom, and now his brother. He couldn't lose you too.
"Sorry, Bobby." You grinned with what little strength you had left, just to sass the man in front of you before death took a hold of you.
"No, don't you do that shit to me. Don't you do that shit!-"
That was the last thing you heard before you collapsed.
----------------------------------------------------------
Angst almost immediately for a new character? Who AM I? haha, anyway. Finally got some motivation to write, unsure if it'll stick though. Love yall <3
@frostymooxnlight cuz you asked to be tagged, lovely!

What about you? Tell everything about the evil women you love!
Oooooh baby.
Lady Macbeth:
She's the template. She’s horrible truly. Has no issues with murder (until she does but mostly out of paranoia not moral issues with the act itself) and she drives Macbeth (and herself) to tragedy with her ambition. She sees herself as helping Macbeth to reach his full potential and that's she's doing it for THEM! Very nuanced character. I adore her. Girl boss 😌 I also loveeee this poster from the National Theater of Korea's production of Macbeth, this is her canon appearance to me now. Don't you want to do just a little murder for her? 🥺
Tumblr media
Tamora (from Titus Andronicus):
She honestly is entirely justified in her desire for revenge at first. (Her son is brutally murdered and she's kidnapped by the Romans.) However, as she gains power and manipulates people and events more for her goals, her motives shift from vengeance to outright cruelty, and she becomes irredeemable. (Good for her) Also she (unintentionally) becomes a cannibal.
youtube
Edelgard von Hresvelg:
She's the villain to everyone else but she sees it as doing what is necessary. She's prepared to betray Dimitri brutally, she's the one who orchestrated an ambush on the others, and she's willing to drag countless others into her war to achieve her goal of dethroning the church. Ultimately though I'm still behind her 100%
Tumblr media
Helga Sinclair:
She's a ruthless femme fatale, unapologetically in it for herself. I love her she never changes who she is even when she "helps" the others at the end it's just out of revenge. Also this scene changed my brain chemistry as a kid:
youtube
Brigid O'Shaughnessy:
Brigid O'Shaughnessy is the quintessential femme fatale. She lies, manipulates, and uses everyone around her, dragging the detective main guy into her dangerous schemes without remorse. She is so hot. (I love all golden age detective movie femme fatales... and she's the mascot for all of them)
Tumblr media
Minthara:
Minthy...... my beloved. I love her more than words can express. She was an inquisitor who murdered unbelievers for TWO DIFFERENT GODS. (though one was a, uh, rather large brain borg cube thing but you know what I'm saying 🌀woooo you want to raid the grove so bad wooo🌀) She has a cut throat philosophy about life and has ZERO QUALMS about subjugating everyone else through brain parasites and conquering the world. At the same time though she loves those she cares about so deeply. She's a woman of extreme kindness and cruelty (when it's needed) and she will make you worse.
Tumblr media
Lady Jessica:
I adore her. She raises her son to dominate others and she is totally chill with manipulating a whole people through religion to function as a weapon on her family's behalf. Not much else to say she's iconic.
Tumblr media
Kreia:
Kreia's ultimate goal is challenging and hopefully destroying the Force itself (metal) and she will do anything to accomplish that. (murder) Beneath her objectively awful actions though, Kreia’s philosophy is good imo, it's that true freedom comes from relying on your own strength and rejecting breaking things down into black or white, good vs evil. So I wouldn't say she inherently is "evil" and she would probably laugh at anyone characterizing her as such. She's an anti-villain and you should side with her.
Tumblr media
Olivier Armstrong:
She is an authoritarian power hungry general. She murders a man and buries him in concrete. (He deserved it though) She would 100% be a dictator if she could. I love her so much though because she has her own code of morality. She sees taking action on behalf of what you believe in as being honorable no matter what your beliefs are. If you want to not genocide people then you better damn well fight against those carrying it our rather than running away. Otherwise you're just a coward. What a queen.
Tumblr media
Homura
What if Lucifer became the devil to save God from sacrificing himself for the sins of others? That’s Homura. (and the show isn't subtle about this haha, it's the actual metaphor) Her love for Madoka is so powerful that she’d burn the whole world to achieve her goal. She’s willing to kill, to doom humanity itself, all to protect the one she loves. Homura and Madoka are complete opposed as Homura would sacrifice everyone for Madoka, while Madoka would sacrifice herself for everyone. Selfish love vs Selfless love. Homura will happily become the villain if she has to. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE MOVIE NEXT YEAR. HOW WILL IT END? I've been waiting a decade to see the conclusion.
Tumblr media
Anyways, thank you for letting me yap about my favorite type of character <3

Before I even got halfway through Sea of Stars I promised people a post about Garl when I finished the game. Well, it's been a week since I got everything I could in a single playthrough and I finally have time to write that post. (Original Post Link)
I'll start off with non-spoilery talk, and then put the part where I reach spoilers under a Read More, as is the norm in this fandom.
I absolutely positively love Garl. That never changed. He is such a good character. When I played the demo for Sea of Stars I pretty much just came from Live A Live. The remake specifically. And in it was a pretty typical fat character, he loves food, and his motivation is eating. When I saw Garl I remembered this LAL character and so many other fat characters and honestly sighed. Because I expected him to be the same way. Then I bought Sea of Stars the day it came out and even in the first cutscene we see Garl in it's clear that there's so much more to his love of food than it just being a love of eating. And I am really happy about that.
Garl loves food. And his love of food goes so far beyond him just liking to eat. He loves food because good food makes people happy. And this wonderful man just wants people to be happy and enjoy life. He wants his friends to be happy so he makes them their favourite foods, when he was a kid he made jam using the sap from a sacred tree and his two best friends absolutely loved that jam. So what did he do? He used some of that jam in a batch of cookies he baked for them. He couldn't see his friends until they were done their training so he left the jar of cookies behind.
Garl has a huge heart. The fat guy being the heart of the team is another trope, less common than him loving eating and refuses to even share a roll, but still, a trope. Garl was thrilled to be going on an adventure with his childhood friends. All his life he was told that he couldn't go on this journey. That only the two Solstice Warriors could. But Garl made that happen, he met up with them and reasoned with them by saying, "Yeah, I'll get out of the way when you do these big dangerous fights only you can do. But there's no reason we can't still travel together." So Valere and Zale let him come along, this was obviously a case of Garl twisting their rubber arms, but still. And when it came time to help the Molekin Garl was thrilled to have helped do some good for a whole town. And he even took the time to hear out little Malkomud and had a great talk to him about how everybody should have been treating him better, and how his powers are special. It was very sweet. And this sweetness and warmth from Garl continued through the game. It was really well done in my opinion.
But Garl also has a backbone and can be a leader.
Spoiler Talk Starts Here
Brisk got destroyed and a lot of citizens very understandably wanted to move and get a fresh start. Garl made sure everybody building the new town was well taken care of. He fed them, kept up their strength, and eventually stepped into a leadership role. He organized town meetings and kept them going. He made sure everybody's voices were heard. And the citizens repaid Garl by having him name the time. It was a very cute scene where Garl keeps pulling his name out of the hat for town name suggestions. He goes, "Haha guys, very funny. Garl's a bad name for the town." And once Garl was clued into why his name was in the hat he gave the town a perfect name. Mirth.
The acolytes pissed Garl off, it was one of the few times we saw him get angry. And The Fleshmancer was also the target of his rarely seen anger. Garl is not a pushover. And unfortunately this did cost him his life. Living off of borrowed time Garl helped his friends make it to the Sea of Stars. He came up with a bargaining chip, he'd wake up The Sleeper and soothe his savage soul. How? Freshly baked bread of course. Because as Garl said, nobody can be angry when they wake up to the smell of freshly baked bread.
This goes back to what I said earlier about Garl loving food because good food makes people happy. This was his logic, it's only natural that a delicious breakfast would make The Sleeper not want to destroy the world. And he's so right.
After Garl's death there is a hole in the party, I missed him, and his input. I'm glad the game had that funeral and gave the characters and the player time to start to miss Garl.
Now for the true ending. We get Garl back! :D He was brought back to life through time shenanigans. Garl was given one wish because of how good of a person he is. What was this wish?
To share a meal with all his friends at the Golden Pelican and celebrate his coming back to life. Garl could have had anything in the world, and he chose to share his wish with the people who meant the most to him.
And I think that does a fantastic job of showing what kind of a guy Garl is. A man with a huge heart who loves his friends.
In short: I loved Garl from the start of the game, and I still love Garl at the end of the game.

The next day for the Festa, a surprise video for BTS’ YouTube channel was released. Armies were surprised to see it was Jin in the kitchen, with an apron on while cooking. Then he turned around.
“There is a certain someone that I have unfinished business with Army,” he spoke. “Someone by the name of Miss Bangtan. I want my championship. The K-Pop title is supposed to be mine and I demand a rematch! You see, I was going easy on you and I’ll admit I underestimated you. But this time, I won’t be holding back! Jin will show no mercy this time! I mean it! I will win! I am worldwide handsome, do you understand!?“
The caption, ‘StopJennie2K16’ came up on the screen
“This time, it will be the match of my choosing. After doing my research on types of wrestling matches, I challenge you to a Falls Count Anywhere match! We wrestle everywhere! At any time! I am taller than you! I am stronger than you, and I will beat you! Jin versus Jennie part 2, coming very soon on your local Bangtan Bomb! Now...accept my challenge, missy! That title needs a more worthy champion to hold it,” he pointed his spatula at the camera and signed out after blowing a kiss.
Jen tweets, ‘Lmfaooooo what!? Is that how you coming? #Jen’
‘Yes, I am. Everyone knows worldwide handsome should have won #Jin’
‘You want a match? Okay. You got it. Challenge accepted. #Jen’
'We bout to go to war, we bout to swing today! Start training. You’re going to need it, gramps #Jen’
‘I am not a grandpa! Watch your back little girl! #Jin’
-------
For the day of their birthday festa event for V-Live, the members were currently at their dress rehearsal. Everyone seemed to be anticipating Jin and Rapmon’s dance battles the most as they sat in their seats.
“You’re freaking cool!” V encouraged as the lights went out, with Rapmon waiting for the music to come on. “Woo!”
“Okay!” Jen cheered as he began to dance.
Yoongi and Hobi started laughing as they watched him.
“His expression is daebak!” Suga said
“Oooooohhhhhh!” V cheered.
After he finished his last move, Jen started screaming with the rest of the members as they all cheered and freaked out.
“That’s my leader! He killed that 'ish! He killed it!” she shouted.
“Wow, you’re cool!” Jin added.
“He’s good. Really good,” Jimin praised.
“Hyung’s coming now,” Jungkook announced on the mic. 
“Wooooooooo! Let’s go Jin!” Jennie cheered as the lights popped on and he began to dance. 
Yoongi and Hobi were cracking up while she and V were bouncing in their seats, vibing to his performance.
“He’s so, so awesome!” Jimin spoke.
“Okay! Okay! I see you, Jin! That’s what I’m talking about!” Jennie shouted.
She was proud of them both. They worked so hard and it paid off. She knew viewers were going to enjoy it.
Next up was Jen, Jungkook, and Jimin’s coming of age ceremony.
“Ah, I think it’s going to be so embarrassing,” Jimin called out.
“We’ll look forward to it!” Jin announced.
“We're going to kill it! We'll be fine,” Jen cheered.
“Fighting!” V quickly said.
As the song came on, the members watched them dance. Jen was in the middle for the performance, giving it 110% as the members cheered.
"Look at Jennie!" Rapmon cheered. "Go, Jennie!"
Hobi pointed out that Jimin had gotten some of the dance moves wrong in the beginning.
“Their moves are different from each other!” Jin called out.
nan ije deo isang sonyeoga aniyeyo
geudae deo isang mangseoriji marayo
geudae gidaryeodeon mankeum
nado oneureul gidaryeosseoyo
jangmi seumusongil naege jwoyo
As the lights went out, they reappeared for their dance break which made the members laugh and watch in awe. 
Next up was Sope’s vocal duet. Jennie sat with Jungkook for this performance. Suga started singing first, walking on stage with Hobi.
“Okay! Vocals!” she praised, waving her arm around
“Everybody! Stand up! Clap! Clap!” J-Hope announced as he jumped around.
Jimin covered his face, laughing while Jennie stood up with her phone. Putting the flashlight on, she started waving it around. When Hobi started screaming into the mic, she sat back down and laughed, covering her mouth while Jungkook stomped his feet and slapped his thigh while laughing.
“Oh my gosh...” she said as they continued to sing all extra.
“My throat freaking hurts,” J-Hope said in the mic after they finished.
“That was cool,” Rapmon stated. “You guys are cool. Really cool.”
“You guys are good.” Jin praised.
“Jennie, you’re up,” the staff announced.
“Oh boy,” she got out of her seat and made her way to the stage.
“ENNIE!” V and Jimin cheered.
“Go, Jennie! Go, Jennie! Go! Go! Go, Jennie!” Hobi rapped.
“This is going to be funny,” Rapmon chuckled.
A couch was already placed on the stage and she kneeled behind it as the lights went out. As soon as the music came on, the lights popped back on and she rose up to sit on the couch and began to sing. The guys watched her admiringly and even laughed since they knew how much she preferred more badass concepts.
Hobi studied the intensity of her movements, making sure she was doing the moves right since she had asked him about a few dance moves while practicing. Rapmon nodded his head to the beat while the Maknae Line started dancing, swaying in their seats. Periodically they would shout silly things to cheer her on.
“Perfect weather can’t get no better,” she rapped.
“OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” the guys shouted as she started rapping on the couch.
Tonight, It’s the night
boreumdareul jomyeong sama
sarangeul soksagigi ttak joheun bam
gibun joheun nalssi yeolhansi wanbyeokhan seting
haneulmajeodo uril chukbokhana bwa
Suga nodded in approval and stood up to applaud. “This is my smartie!" 
After she finished her performance, Suga jumped up and down, "WOOOOOOO! My smartie!”
After getting off stage, she was met by high fives from the guys, who congratulated her on a job well done.
“I’m proud of smartie! She has done well with the rap!” Suga smiled at the camera.
“He’s so happy,” Hobi giggled.
Next up was V’s Cypher pt 3 solo stage which was what Jennie had been anticipating the most. She stood on the side of the stage with the members.
As the song began, V began bouncing. “Ohhhhh. Oh, oh, oh. Do you know this song?” he asked as Jennie danced with Hobi.
V even was wearing Suga’s outfit for the occasion as he began rapping his heart out.
niga mueoseul hadeun I will kill for
naega mueoseul hadeun I’ll be real for
ttokbaro bwa
ige baro niga ba baran beast mode
namjaneun dambae,
yeojaneun baram pil ttae
I smoke beat this a beat smoke
“Who the man told you crazy? Who the fella told you crazy, I’m better than ya lazy,” Jen mouthed, pointing to the camera.
kibodeuro hiphap haneun nomdeulboda
baek baeneun yeolsimhi salji
Rapmon squinted his eyes shut, trying to keep his laughs in as he covered his mouth. “I can’t,”
Suga had his arms crossed as he chuckled while watching V rap. Jennie looked like a proud best friend watching him rap while the rest of the guys stood there, staring at him.
“Hi, I’m Kim Taehyung, I’m so happy I get to rap like this. Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho- oh shit!” he rapped passionately.
The guys continued to laugh as Jimin threw his body forward, holding his stomach while Jennie continued bopping around with a proud smile on her face. Everyone made their way on stage as V started bouncing around for the chorus.
Haterdeureun manchi
“Okay!” Jen shouted on the mic, hyping him up while bending her knees slightly, rocking to the beat.
But no problem, I kill
“All right!”
nal mutgi wihae nae keorieoeda padaeneun sapjil
“Say what!? Frankly, you don’t what!? You can’t control my shit!”
bulsineul chamanaen ninjaga dwae dasi dorawatji
As he continued to rap J-Hope’s part, V started dabbing, which made them all laugh and copy his movements behind him. As the chorus came on again, V started dabbing around and Jen joined him as they jumped all over the stage dancing with each other. Suga took over his own verse before V could as they all laughed. And then V joined in.
nuga nae dwieseo nareul yeotmaegideun
nideuri chyeonol ttae urin segyeilju
“Uh! Uh! Okay? Okay? Fuck it up!” she rocked back and forth.
After the song ended, even the staff was laughing.
“You’re good,” Rapmon said.
“So we will watch him quietly like this during the middle and then when it’s Suga hyung’s verse, Suga hyung will rap,” Hobi said.
“I’ll create a surprise twist,” Suga replied.
“Yeah, do the twist, then V goes and then we can-“
“Together. Everyone do it together,” Rapmon suggested.
“And then at the last chorus, we’ll all play together,” Hobi added.
“This wasn’t planned, right?” Jimin asked.
-------
For the opening of the show, Jin and Jen waited for their cue as the camera was now on Jimin and J-Hope. The camera panned to them and they both picked up the piece of paper and held it together as it said, ‘BTS Happy Birthday’
They turned to each other, smiled, and started walking towards the stage. Then they turned around and blocked the camera with their hands.
“Hey, is this your first three year anniversary party?” Rapmon announced, opening up for Dope over the screaming fans who waved their Army Bombs.
After performing Dope, they stood on stage together and did their signature greeting. Rapmon started off by greeting the fans and saying that they were streaming on V-Live+. For the event, J-Hope and Jimin were today’s MCs.
“This segment is to recognize BTS’s three hard years and Army fans,” J-Hope announced. “It’s called BTS Awards.”
“Last week, we asked fans to pick our best photo, the best Bangtan Bomb, and the best moment for BTS,” Jimin said. “Let’s see the candidates and see who got first,”
There were chairs placed for each member as they took a seat. Jennie sat in between Suga and V. They checked out the candidates for best photo as they looked at the screen.
“Oh wow~!” Jen said. 
One was from the fire MV, the other was from their three year anniversary and the other seemed like it was from the Begins concert. The members watched as Jimin unveiled each photo which had a variety of dots on them to determine which one had the most votes.
“You need help?” Jennie laughed when Jimin pulled off the cover for the first picture but it almost fell over and J-Hope had to fix it.
“He always needs help,” Jungkook replied, making them laugh.
“Jimin, this almost fell over,” J-Hope said. “Don’t do that,”
In the end, the Begins concert photo got the most votes.
“Let’s pick our best BTS Bomb,” Jimin said as they looked at the screen.
The one where they were having fun in the hotel, got the most votes.
For BTS’ best moment, everyone voted for when they debuted. 
“That day was the start of our journey. So many memorable moments. We’re extremely grateful for you all being there for us for three years. Let’s hope for many more.” Jen beamed.
“We’re more than happy about this. I heard our Army fans have awards for us too,” Suga added.
“In our special BTS Awards, Army fans prepared awards for BTS,” J-Hope announced. “Rap Monster. The first of many. 772 Award.” he said as 772 meant clumsy.
“I present this award for his excellence. From BTS army fans June 13, 2016. There are other awards. Destroyed the world award.” Jimin announced.
That made Jen laugh with Rapmon and the audience. Rapmon also won the buy two shoes with 10,000 won award.
Jin won the looks good every day, Old Man’s Jokes, Everything tastes good/tasty meals, and Korean meals awards.
“He got five awards. I’m envious.” Suga said.
“Thank you. I’ll make an old man’s joke to honor this moment.” Jin said. “What’s the biggest nose in the world?”
Suga won ‘Otousan’, ‘Suga genius best man’ and ‘I can die for Naver’ awards. With the Otousan award, Hobi explained that Suga seems chic but cares for other members and fans. So like a father figure.
“I’ll do my best to be worthy of these awards. Thank you,” Suga replied.
J-Hope won dances like a God, shares hope with the world and You can depend on Hobi awards. Jimin won Jungkook’s mom award, fan café fairy and Fatal award. The fatal award was about his charm. V won A walking case study, Meant to be, and the T-Zone great looks award.
Jungkook won suspiciously quiet, Jungkook’s face but Jungkook’s body, and everyone’s guy award.
“Ennie~!” Jimin sang as cheers got louder once she stood up with a smile and made her way over to him. “Awards. Name. Jennie. I present to you the Smartie Gobbler award, Nike’s force of greatness and cutest DJ,“
“Why thank you very much,” she bowed, taking the paper. “One day I’ll be able to endorse Nike and become a true force of greatness for their product. Nike if you’re watching this, I am still available!”
“It’s been years. Someone from the company call her up,” Suga laughed.
She went to shake Jimin’s hand and then V eagerly shook her hand too before she went back to her seat.
“I want to give BTS an award. It goes like this, BTS always thinks of Army award,” Suga said and pointed to the crowd, making them cheer while Hobi laughed.
For the next segment, the members decide to make their own cake. A table was brought up on stage and there were two cakes on the table. Their table consisted of ingredients for them to decorate.
“Shouldn’t we just let Jennie do this? She bakes.” Jimin suggested.
“Yeah, a lot. And her baking is delicious.” Rapmon added.
“I actually baked these cakes,” Jen replied.
“Oh! Perfect!” Jin cheered.
“Thank goodness. It’s been a while since we had your delicious baking,“ V said.
“I also baked for Army. You’ll be receiving cupcakes that I made for you all,” she announced to loud cheers. “A token of my appreciation for embracing me here in Korea. Thank you again.”
“Awwwwww,” they responded and chanted her name, which caused her to smile and bow.
Bangtan was set to team up in two teams to decorate. For the teams, it was Jin, Jungkook, and Jimin going up against Rapmon, V and Jen.
“We have Jennie, it’s OK,” Rapmon said confidently.
As they decorated it, Jen used the icing to spell out BTS in a decorative way while V and Jimin began dancing around, entertaining the crowd.
“I need you to destroy these cookies. Destroy them and then sprinkle them all over. I don't care about it looking neat. It’ll look fine with the crumbs,” Jen said as Rapmon did what he was told.
After the time was up, their cakes were judged.
“If she wasn’t on our team, we would’ve screwed up the cake with the cream.” Rapmon laughed.
After the segment, they went to go change, meanwhile, a video was played of Bang PD. Backstage in a separate dressing room, Jen changed into her outfit for the Coming of Age Ceremony, wearing a suit. While she got ready, SOPE performed.
When she made her way to the stage, waiting to go on, she met up with Jungkook and Jimin. She high fived Jimin and turned to Jungkook.
"We got this!" she gave Jungkook a quick peck on the lips.
As the three of them got on stage, ARMY screamed and cheered as they performed effortlessly with Jennie singing the song and dancing in the middle sensually. 
After the performance, she quickly rushed backstage to change for the Full Moon performance. She wore an outfit similar to Sunmi's in the music video in black while going barefoot.
Sitting in a chair, the make up artist began to put red lipstick on her lips and finished up her look to make her look like a vampire just like Sunmi in her music video. 
After getting situated, she stood backstage, pacing around, as her nerves began to get to her.
“Perfect weather can get no better!” Hobi rapped as he made his way over to her with a bright smile. That helped calm her nerves and she let out a laugh. “You’re going to do great out there. Especially the rap,” he kissed her forehead.
Once it was her time to shine, she made her way to the stage. The stage was dark as the couch was placed in the middle, waiting for her. She kneeled behind it as she heard the crowd anticipating what was next. As the music started, she slowly rose up from the couch with the lights appearing on the stage. That piercing gaze in her eyes made fans scream as she made her way to the couch.
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(OK JW Leggo)
She began to sing in a low, mature voice as she sat on the couch and danced.
jigeum dangjang amu maldo pillyo eobseo
geudaewa naui nunbichi malhaejuneungeol
Bouncing in her seat, she shimmied her shoulders. Her goal was to see dance gracefully yet add the sensuality and keep it balanced. It also helped with the way she would be staring into the soul of the camera, which made viewers freak out.
malhaji ma amu maldo pillyo eobseo
chokchogi jeojeun nae ipsure salmyeosi dagawa ip matchwojwo
saranghandan ppeonhan geu han madiga
teukbyeolhage neukkyeojineun oneul bam
wae iri simjangeun ppalli ttwineunji
ja ije sigani dwaesseo
Standing up from the couch, she danced the chorus, as she made a moon with her fingers and extended her left foot to the side.
geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, nal boreowayo
i bami gagi jeone hae tteugi jeone seodulleojwoyo
geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, geudae sarangeul jwoyo (Jen Walker!)
Armies seemed to have screamed out the fan chants because she started to notice it was almost as loud as the music. She fought the urge to smile and stayed in her Full Moon persona.
i bami gagi jeone hae tteugi jeone nal boreo wayo (Saranghae!)
Slowly kneeling, she gazed at the crowd as she sensually rubbed her hands together.
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
Going back to the couch, she rapped, ‘Perfect weather, can get no better’
Which had surprised everyone. As she took her seat on the couch, she crossed her legs, moving sensually, rubbing her legs together.
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
Laying her body across the couch, she rapped smoothly as the cheers got louder,
Everything around us so so real yo
Tonight, It’s the night
boreumdareul jomyeong sama
sarangeul soksagigi ttak joheun bam
gibun joheun nalssi yeolhansi wanbyeokhan seting

Standing up, she continued to move her hips.

uriman saenggakhago i bameun gildago
geudae soneul japgo Walking on the moon
gutge dachin mun ppajimeobsi yeoreo

Sitting back on the couch with her knees against her chest, she went back to singing.
saranghandan ppeonhan geu han madiga

geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, nal boreowayo

She sat on top of the couch to perform the choreography again.
geudaeyeo boreumdari tteuneun nal, geudae sarangeul jwoyo (Jen Walker)
i bami gagi jeone hae tteugi jeone nal boreo wayo (Saranghae!)
Standing on top of the couch, she slowly walked across.
bissoge i osi heumppeok jeotgo
neowa na danduri i gireul geotgo
dalkomhan sarangeul soksagyeoyo
Slowly kneeling, she rubbed her hands sensually again,
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
Perfect weather can get no better
Laying her body on the couch with her head on the floor and legs over the top of the couch, she ran her hands down her body sensually.
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
(Eh eh eh eh eh)
Everything around us so so real yo
Getting back off the couch, she danced while the crowd fan chanted her name eight times for the final beats of the song. Taking a seat on the couch, she crossed her legs and turned her head to the crowd for the ending pose. After the song ended, she was met by loud cheers as she laughed and bowed.
“Thank you! I love you!” she giggled and walked off the stage once the lights turned off.
After her performance, it was now time for V’s as he rapped cypher pt 3, dancing around the stage.
The members walked on the stage as they crossed their arms, staring at him while V rapped J-Hope’s verse. Jennie danced around, bopping to the beat, watching him proudly. She started laughing while V started poking J-Hope and then Rapmon. As planned, V and Suga rapped his verse.
For the last verse, Jen decided to rap with Rapmon, jumping around with him
Haterdeureun manchi
“What!?” She shouted in the mic.
But no problem, I kill
“Okay!”
nal mutgi wihae nae keorieoeda padaeneun sapjil
“WHOOOP! Frankly, you don’t what? You can’t control my shit!”
bulsineul chamanaen ninjaga dwae dasi dorawatji
After the performance, the members stood on stage together, while V dabbed excessively. They recapped their performances, praising one another.
“What about Jennie’s full moon?” Hobi asked.
Loud screams occurred as she covered her face and laughed.
“I’m glad you liked it! Thank you!” she said.
“That was a very sexy stage, munchkin. You looked fierce.”
“Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh,” Jimin sang while Jungkook and Hobi copied her dance moves by exaggeratingly rubbing their hands together, staring at the camera, making everyone laugh.
“I want to praise V. He did such an amazing job. You worked hard and your dream to rap came true. I’m proud of you,” she grinned.
“Thank you Ennie,” he smiled happily and they high fived each other.
“It’s our third anniversary right?” Yoongi asked. “What if we start rising again?
Suddenly Rise of Bangtan came on, hyping the crowd up while the members jumped around.
turn up!
la lala lalala lalalalala
turn up!
ni maeumeul jibeosamkyeo
naega watda jigeum allyeo
la lala lalala lalalalala
While the rest of the guys danced around on stage, Jennie made her way to the stage, standing in the background with a mic in hand.
“Uriga nugu! nugu! jingyeogui bangtan! JENNIE!” Rapmon shouted.
The guys surrounded her, hyping her up as she performed her verse.
“WHOO! My boys and I started at the bottom, now we rising up! And Watch out cause this bullet-proof girl is knockin’ down all the walls! Ain’t nothing stoppin’ us now, they got my back, I got theirs! We steppin’ over all the roadblocks. Our music is on and you can’t help but move to the rhythm. Don’t even try to hide it, this beat is sick, so rock with me now.”
She danced around all extra with the members.
“Ladies! Rise like a Bulletproof Girl Scout! Rise, be brave! Let's go, Jungkook!” She high fived him as he started rapping.
As the chorus came back on again, she threw her head around, dancing with J-Hope.
uriga nugu
“WHOOP!” she shouted.
jingyeogui bangtansonyeondan
uriga nugu
geobeobsi jibeosamkinda
“Cuz we got fire! Fire, fire, get higher! Higher, higher!” she sang.
uril moreundamyeon jedaero aradwo
As Jungkook sang, while getting on his knees, Jen got on her knees too.
Mudae wie oreuneun sungan
geudaeui hamseongdeureul nan neukkyeo
Putting the mic to her lips, she sang, “Geudaero yeongwonhi geogi isseojwo. Idaero jugeodo.”
Harmonizing with him, they sang, “Huhoeneun eobseul tenikka~”
After they finished the song, Satoori Rap came on, as the rap line performed with the vocal line jumping and dancing around on stage. Jennie milly rocked on stage with Jin and V joining. 
Fire came on, which excited the crowd even more as they performed and they wore special jerseys for the occasion. After the song, Namjoon began the closing remarks as the event was about to end. A chorus of awwws was heard. He then asked the members how they felt about fire being suited for them. After their closing remarks, they ended the festa with fun boys.
------
After the show, Jennie, V, and Hobi went out to have a night picnic while walking Tony.
Tony energetically ran around, playing with V as they were all seated on the grass, enjoying their food and light music in the background. The three reminisced on their festa event and Tony was lying down, enjoying belly rubs from V.
Looking up at Jennie who finished listening to Hobi about his performance with Yoongi, V said, “Ennie, I want to say thank you for hyping me up when I was performing and practicing for Cypher. It made me very happy. I appreciate that.”
Jen smiled softly as Tony nuzzled against her. “Of course! You deserve it. Now hopefully one day the rap line can put you on a cypher-”
“Noooooooo,” Hobi interrupted as they laughed. “Yoongi would have a fit.”
“Well, we’re still going to try and make it happen,” she replied.
The night consisted of laughter as the two boys made fun of her dancing to Full Moon. She retaliated by kicking Hobi in the butt, making him fall.
After they finished eating, they lay on their backs, in a circle and watched the stars.
She took a selfie of them and posted it on Instagram. 'Thank you for 3 wonderful years of BTS! I love y'all!'
Her comment section was flooded with positive responses and unfortunately Matt Rife even commented again.
MattRife: You are so gorgeous...
Which caused fans to comment to him to back off once again.
Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.
Jen checked her phone to see a surprise text from Chanyeol.
Chanyeol: Hey Jennie! Congrats on three years with BTS! I wanted to discuss something with you. We have music on our repackaged album that will be released in a few months. We were thinking of having a second version of a song or two with a feature in it. We thought it would be great to have you featured in one of them if you’re interested.
That surprised her. A song with EXO? That would be so fun!
Jen: omg yes! ABSOLUTELY! Send it, please! I want to hear it!
Chanyeol: Yay! I’m sending them now.
She then received two audio recordings.
Chanyeol: What do you think? Do you think we can create something? Lay and Sehun can teach you the choreography. We can work on the lyrics. We’re making music videos for them too. It would be a pleasure for you to be in it too.
Putting her earbuds in, she pressed play while looking up at the stars. The beats for them were sick as she fell in love with the sound. She felt a sense of empowerment with it too, thinking of various ideas.
Jen: Omg.
Jen: Are you kidding?
Chanyeol: Don’t like the songs? :(
Jen: No goofball! This is lit! Both of them!
Chanyeol: So you’ll do it?!
Jen: Yes!! I’m in!
She was suddenly messaged with tons of happy emojis, making her laugh softly.
Chanyeol: Let’s discuss our schedules and when we can work on this

imagine Typhon is actually a good dad to his kids and a good husband?
SO. i have a lot of feeligns about typhon:
i am, as some people have recently heard, a big fan of the Orphic tradition where Typhon is created by Kronos.
but. given that Typhon is the ONE guy in myth who actually nearly is successful in killing Zeus (man literally ripped out his sinews, and probs would've succeeded if Zeus wasn't aided by the whole damn pantheon of Olympians, whereas Typhon was just one guy), i think that Kronos being the sole parent doesn't offer enough reason as to why Typhon was so strong.
so i think, the eggs were created by Gaia, and given to Kronos as a back-up plan in case Kronos and the Titans alone weren't enough to stop Ouranos. and since Ouranos was as powerful as a primordial himself, Typhon needed to be extremely powerful. so Typhon has Gaia's blood, and Kronos' blood, and that's what gives him an extra boost that other gods don't have.
and THEN, of course, Hera enters the picture, and i think by her directly causing Typhon's birth, she imparts a bit of her own strength to Typhon, and so now he has the rage of all three-- Gaia, Kronos, Hera. and that makes him terrifyingly strong.
so after Zeus finally beats Typhon, i think the only place there is left to send him is to Tartarus; that famous prison so dark and deep it was the only place strong enough to hold the Cyclopes, the Hecatoncheires, and later Ouranos himself too.
now, Typhon, as a character, i think his only real motivation in life is to be strong. so, when he got thrown down into Tartarus, from where there really is no escape, that would been so frustrating for him.
i don't think there any shackles in Tartarus... the prison itself is so endless, no one could escape even if they tried. so Typhon is pretty much free to roam around there aimlessly.
and for a long time, i think Typhon mostly just goes around crushing rocks and making a ruckus, and yelling insults to Zeus hoping that he can taunt him into a rematch.
but the prisoners of Tartarus aren't the only inhabitants that live there. i think Gaia had many other monster children with Tartarus after Ouranos, and i think Echidna is one of these kids.
and eventually she comes face to face with Typhon; this great big monster destroying her home, and i like the idea that they're both "punch first, ask later" kinda characters, so they just get straight into throwing punches.
but eventually, stuck in the same place, Typhon and Echidna grow together and become mates, as the myth describes.
and i think Echidna and Typhon are very happy together. i don't think either are "evil", but just.. untamed.
so yeah. i think Typhon is a good "husband" to Echidna. i think they work well together. i think they are true to each other. they don't have the same flaws that the Olympians have.. i think they aren't so easily tempted with the same material things the Olympians are. they're "undomesticated"? not sure how to describe what i mean here haha.
now of course, Typhon and Echidna have a wonderful brood of lovely monsters of all sorts of shapes and sizes. Orthrus, Hydra, Sphinx, and most famously, Cerberus.
something i've found strange is the way most of Echidna's kids end up "owned" by someone. like common animals. Cerberus is Hades' guard-dog, Orthrus too is a guard-dog for Geryon's cattle, the Sphinx is a guard of the Theban city gates, etc. but why are they all scattered across the world and not in Tartarus?
personally, i think that Zeus took away Echidna and Typhon's children because he feared they would be too strong/powerful, or would rise together against him. i don't think this would be out of character for Zeus.. he's always making iffy difficult decisions.
i don't think Typhon and Echidna get to spend much time with their kids. but i do think that both parents love and weep for their children bitterly.
i like the idea that at the end of the world, they're able to get their justice. but i shan't say more, because i'll go on a tangent about the apocalypse and what happens then.
anyways. sorry this was a bit gloomy lol. but yeah, i like Typhon and Echidna a lot. better than most of the Olympians anyway 😔

since youre in the mood (me too) what do you like sm about strade? :3
HEHEHEHEHEHEHE g-d i like everything about him lol
i played the first btd like. almost eight years ago (june 2016) and just immediately fell in love with him. the friend who introduced me to btd was down bad for him too, so we just drooled over him all summer long (memoriesss~)
for one, i love his personality, and how he's just kind of a normal guy who's a fucked up freak in his spare time. he doesn't have a motivation for what he's doing, or a dark back story or trauma like law and ren do. he's just a fucked up dude doing fucked up things because he can which is SO SEXY and always my favourite route for a horror or slasher villain
i love his design and how its developed, obviously. i have a thing for bigger guys so strade being consistently drawn as thicker and with a ton of strength behind it too (big arms and big shoulders) is also incredibly sexy lmao
i also love how like. condescending and mean he is too lol. like calling you 'buddy' all the time (which has given me a pavlov response to it when it happens irl) and slapping your cheek and talking down to you and making you squirm, it really gets to me. i obv love strade for being a sexy, sexy sadist but i LOVE how just. casually cruel he can be at times too, it's sooooo so hot.
as a side, and maybe because of strade, i've also developed a bit of a thing for german guys. i've been learning it for about three years (also totally because of strade xux) and i had a brief D/S situationship with a german guy who i was head over heels for. so strade being assertively quite german in btd and fics especially is another of my favourite things too haha
i just love everything about him, he's the only fictional boyfriend i have a tattoo for, and i'm planning a second one when you kill me every time comes out ^_^

Genderbent Jack Horner x Reader? 👀👀
My bisexual heart can't get over this thought 😳👉👈
Btw, I love your stuff 💖✨
TYSMM I love this idea <33 ..

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
[ Jessica Rabbit theme playing. ]
Sometimes, some potions should be left on the shelf...
You guys didn't know what the potion originally was, hues of pink coiled it's harsh talons around with hues of red, drops of gold swam around like a madman...
Typically, he wouldn't try his own potions...
But, you made him.
He popped the cork off, as it made a clarifying pop sound, his index and thumb pinched the bottle. No label. No tag. No nothing.
So, why should he be scared?
I mean, he shouldn't...
But, he lifted his arm, as his lips curled around the rim of the beaker, his hand tilting the mysterious beaker up. The potion hit his mouth...
It tasted like..
Cherries-?
No, not cherries,
Vanilla-?
No, not vanilla,
It was-- Something he couldn't describe. It was harsh, yet sweet. It smelt like some kind of confetti, if it even had a smell .
Bleghh..
He took only a few sips, as he tilted hos hand down. Pulling the beaker away from his plump lips, sliding it upon the shelf.
...
It took a moment, but it struck like a train.
He shook his head, as he burped. His lips didn't change, but he could feel a change in his face. He couldn't tell what..
Something was off.. It was...
More curves.
He felt like bellowing, as his hands practically changed themselves. It didn't hurt. But ir felt strange.
Long nails adorned his original, short ones. Oh god.
His eyes widened, shock coating his face.
His chest tingled, the feeling of change ramming its uncomfy horns into it. Grew.
And grew..
Until something perky coated his chest. Two soft breasts--
His body was shifting, changing, he didn't know why!!!
You watched...
In shock.
As, stood before you,
Wasn't Jack anymore.
It was Jackelyn.
You smiled, as she turned to look at you, as she looked shocked herself.
"I'm a--" She sputtered out, as she raised her arms, peering down towards her hands, that were now soft and.. Smaller. Not too much smaller, but now that her height changed too, nothing much to do.
"You're a..?" You hummed out, awaiting for her to speak up and announce what had happened.
"I'm a WOMAN-!"
This was gonna take some getting used too.
Corset trying!
That was fun.
How she shrieked out when it was tightened, and you could only pat her hand, not being brave enough to hold it. Her bare strength could probably break it no problem.
It fit!
She hated it.
Cuddles were nicer though.
Somehow, she became softer around. You could easily lay on her, somehow she was softer than before.
She just rolled her eyes and pinched the face of her sleeping mask, only to pull it down and let it slap against her face. An angry scowl on her face as she huffed. And headed to bed.
But you always woke up.
Getting cuddled.
Her periods weren't good either,
You always comforted her, rubbed her back, cooed it was okay. But oh god, did she HATE it.
She complained, got angrier, more protective of you. Almost like a harmful stereotype.
The cramps were a killer.
She'd lay in bed, with a hand on her lower tummy, her lips puckered in pain, as she clenched her eyes shut. It hurt, bad..
But, you took care of her.
Even if she 'didn't need it'...
Yet, during this time, she sometimes struggled to even get out of bed, having no motivation..
On the topic of bed...
Hey, that was fun.
Your new sex life.
I mean..
She had many new things to try and...
Haha..
You couldn't even spit it out without having a red face.
But here you stand, beside her desk, hearing her curse and sputtered. Hoping it would end soon, she didn't want this stupid body anymore!
...
But, you couldn't lie,
You hoped it never wore off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
× 'A CHICK!!' ×
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I HOPE TJIS IS WHAT YOU MWANT, ENJOY!!

team comp: my edition!
stealing @throwaway-yandere's idea bc i thought it would be fun and i was brainrotting about scara/xiao anyways :D
my most recent 5 star is xiao, who is now level 90 with semi-leveled up talents! he's so fun i'm even more upset that i lost him to the 50/50 a year ago (i'm sorry diluc i don't hate you, but please stop coming home i just wanted the silly jumping adeptus,,,)
Tumblr media
wahoo! here we gooo
wanderer / bennett
Probably didn't like Bennett AT ALL, most likely saw his bad luck as a nuisance to the rest of the group.
But then he saw Bennett just trying his best, fully-charged burst boosting him as he demolishes everything in his path (god i love his ult ily benny)
(He cares ok, I'm not taking constructive criticism this stupid puppet cares for people)
Bennett was scared of the wanderer as a whole at first: with his intimidating and somewhat quiet first impression, he gets even more scared when he laughs maniacally while turning a hilichurl camp to dust in a minute flat.
I think he probably admires his strength and Scara now becomes a semi-motivation for Benny to become stronger LOL
"I wish that kid would stop yelling so much. His shrieks are shrill on the ears. I'll probably get used to it after a while, what with his luck being as atrocious as it is."
"He's so strong! I'll admit the way he fights is somewhat terrifying, but I don't mind it as much anymore. It's cool to know that such a strong person is a part of Benny's Adventure Team!"
~~~
"Hey, kid, watch my back. I'm too busy to be watching yours."
"Wo-ah! Alright, go wild Mr. Wanderer!"
"Don't call me that."
"Eek! Yes, sir!"
Tumblr media
wanderer / zhongli
Wanderer wouldn't know that Zhongli's the former geo archon, so his long monologuing about Liyue culture are just the ramblings of a guy who has an ancient soul.
Every once in a while, Wanderer will listen in on Zhongli's stories of the adepti or about the land they currently stand on.
I think Scaramouche would like the stories of the different flora and fauna (no this isn't about fall in fall his teapot lines have him admiring the Sumeru forests ok).
Zhongli finds the strange Wanderer to be somewhat of an enigma. From letters that the dendro archon sent him, his mental stability was not the best before he started traveling around Teyvat.
At first, he was careful to make sure the others were safe and that the Wanderer's temper wouldn't go out of control.
But the more he travels with him, he sees the care in his eyes when he picked up Bennett when the boy accidently tripped and almost fell off a low cliff.
In a flash, the Wanderer has the back of Bennett's shirt in a tight grip with two circles hovering behind his head.
"He talks so much, but sometimes that nonsense can be somewhat entertaining. I've learned more about Liyue in the short time I've been near him than I have in my centuries long life."
"His words are quite frank, but I have no worries that he will harm anyone that I care about. Even if he is often harsh and without filter, I will make sure he doesn't hurt anybody."
~~~
"Old man."
"Ah, apologies. I didn't realize we had already arrived. I will continue the story at a later date."
"No, keep going. We'll probably have to wait for that adeptus to save the kid from something on the way."
"Haha, of course. Then, where was I? I believe I was telling you about the followers of the goddess of salt..."
Tumblr media
xiao / bennett
As usual, Xiao is cautious to be around normal humans; his karmic debt isn't great for them to be around for long.
But then Bennett happened, which caused those plans to throw itself down the chasm.
Is this human... doing this on purpose? The amount of times that the anemo adeptus had to save the unlucky boy has probably exceeded the number of years Xiao has been alive.
On the other hand, Bennett has actively tried to avoid getting into any difficult situations. He's scared that the adeptus will show up out of nowhere and hear him sigh for the nth time.
In return, he tries to make him almond tofu, which somehow ends up wrong in so many different ways (the pudding part is too hard, it's a bit misshapen, but when Xiao takes a bite it tastes like the sweetest of dreams).
"He's just like any other foolish mortal, putting himself in danger to prove his worth. But, in his case, I don't believe he's doing it intentionally..."
"I thought Adeptus Xiao would also be somewhat scary like the Wanderer, but he's really nice! Only when I don't trip and fall into the water again..."
~~~
"Adeptus Xiao! Do you wanna come with me to grab some Cor Lapis for Mr. Zhongli?"
"What for? This seems rather spontaneous."
"Well, I thought it would make a good gift! Besides, I think he wanted to get a bit stronger too."
"...Is that so? Very well then. I'll help you find some on Mt. Hulao."
Tumblr media
bennett / zhongli
As the two supports of the team, they often sideline while the two anemo DPS go wild.
Bennett being the youngest of the team looks up to Zhongli, the oldest, and tries to listen to Zhongli as much as he can. He thinks it would help him in the future.
Of course, he learns a lot about the rich history of another nation, but Bennett finds himself becoming an overall better person to the people around him.
Zhongli also has a soft spot for the clumsy Mondstadtian boy. His optimism and bright outlook often has Zhongli smiling at the energy of the youth.
Rambles to him about rocks. Every single rock Bennett brings to him he could talk about for hours. Third-Round Knockout's storyteller has learned so much from these two eating meals there.
"Mr. Zhongli always has something and interesting to say! I've learned a lot from him and I want to be like him someday."
"As a child from Mondstadt, he's very free-spirited. Barbatos' people have no problem speaking their mind, which is very different from the mora-centered businesses of Liyue. I enjoy his company very much."
~~~
"Hey Mr. Zhongli! How are you today?"
"I'm doing alright. I was on my way to accompany the adeptus Xiao to Wangshu Inn. Would you like to come?"
"Wangshu Inn? Sure, I'm down! What for?"
"Just for a quick talk and visit. It won't take up too much of your time."
Tumblr media
xiao / zhongli
Poor Xiao still isn't used to acting like Zhongli is a stranger, occasionally slipping up every once in a while and calling him "my Lord."
It just feels so... odd to be addressing him as anything else. Of course, he means well, he's trying his best to accommodate for his now-human Lord
Zhongli is glad to see Xiao doing well, despite his karmic debt. While he feels upset that he can't do anything to help with Xiao's pain, he tries to remind him to take his medicine every once in a while.
On the battlefield, they work as harmoniously as melody and harmony. As Xiao takes care of all the enemies, Zhongli is right beside him to make sure nothing catches him off guard.
(Not that Xiao needs it, but he's just happy that Zhongli is there :D)
"Ah yes, Rex-the consultant. I often find him talking to the director and more recently that young Mondstadtian. I wish that I could talk to him a bit more loosely, and yet..."
"Have you talked to Xiao recently? I worry he hasn't been taking his medicine recently. Perhaps I should go to Bubu Pharmacy myself sometime soon."
~~~
"My L- Zhongli. Bennett and that Wanderer are waiting."
"Ah, my apologies. Please tell them I might take a while longer. The bamboo and meat are simmering still."
"I will. However, while the Wanderer has yet to say he craves to eat anything, the mortal's stomach is grumbling..."
Tumblr media
wanderer / xiao
(i purposely put this one last LMAO what do you get when you put two an-emos together on a team)
They might seem to get along, but they're the most tense on the team.
While Wanderer is often taking center stage, Xiao isn't a selfless offensive member either.
When they aren't competing to see who kills more enemies, they get into the pettiest of arguments.
Wanderer still retains the part of himself that likes to tempt people to becoming angry, and while Xiao knows that he still often scowls and glares at the other anemo vision wielder.
One time, Zhongli wanted them to get a bit closer by having them eat a meal together. When he came back, he found the food cold with Xiao unleashing attack after attack on the hovering Wanderer.
When asked, Xiao refuses to answer what happened and the Wanderer is smiling awfully.
"I find it hilarious when that adeptus tries to look at me. What is it about other long-living beings and finding me so suspicious? Maybe later I'll steal his kill again to see how he snaps back."
"That man is nothing but trouble. I heard from... Zhongli that he almost wrecked havoc in Sumeru. It doesn't help that he's often an insufferable brat-"
~~~
"Hey there Adeptus Xiao. Care to spare a moment with little ole me?"
"What do you want."
"Calm down, I just wanted to see if you knew where that pharmacy assistant was. The zombie one?"
"What are you planning?"
"Ugh, I regret asking you. You're like an overbearing mother."
"Come back, I asked what you were planning on doing to her."
"You know, if you asked nicely I would have given you the fight you wanted."

Thoughts of DILF, middle aged Sebek? Since you did Silver the duo has to be complete, haha. I personally feel like he would be more of a refined, fancy old guy, maybe even embracing his human and academic side more with age? I like to think he laughs more since toboso described him as being similar to a puppy in the art book🥰 but I’d like to get your thoughts if you have the time, thank you :D
okay there’s mallesebemalle in this im sorry
Without even thinking hard about it… WOULD.
Now that this is out of the way, I need a DILF Sebe. I think he inherits half of a fey’s lifespan, so by the time Silver is 45-50 Sebek still looks quite young. Silver won’t be there to see how gracefully Sebek ages.
It’s around like, halfway through his life (i won’t give a year bc I have no idea how long the Zigvolts live lol) that he’ll need reading glasses… hot. Also, he smells so good oh my goodness. An old DILF that wears an exquisite expensive cologne yes please. Even after all those years, he takes great care of himself. Grooms himself regularly… shaves his facial hair… he’s so sexy. Still slicks back his hair, all that stuff… except he’s old now… yum
He has a loud booming laugh!!! It makes you all warm inside. His crows feet creasing when he laugh oh my … and he routinely slaps his men on the back as a friendly gesture but omg it actually hurts a lot. He’s friendly and such a sweet mentor and father figure, but when things get serious my god he gets intimidating. Strict with his men. Punishes the troublemakers with Lilia-style training. Basically, PE teacher energy. Provides surface-level emotional support, but you can tell he cares and he can tell when you don’t feel so well, so it warms you up still. Dad jokes. DAD JOKES. Not funny, super embarrassing , actually very charming. Hi gay, I’m Sebek Zigvolt LIKE SHUT UPPPPP.
Patriotic, takes pride in his fey and human sides!!! Proud of himself for going up the ranks as a half fey. His humanity is actually very attractive to the gay boys under him zhfhdgfj. Anyway, he learned to find strength in his humanity—I mean that he can somewhat predict/understand the motivations etc of a human enemy, moreso than a full fey. but! His race makes him unique and valuable to have within the ranks.
He’s all grown and he’s actually as tall as Malleus. He drinks scotch, certified dilf drink, and malleus drinks straight absinthe. (Shakily holds my mic) do we want to see dilf Sebe fuck Malleus? I’m. Oh. I’m a top Malleus girlie. Oh my. Okay, they switch. I’m sorry Malleus… oh my god Malleus I’m sorry. It’s just something irresistible about a dilf fucking a younger looking man. Malleus seeing just how much Sebek has grown, how strong he is, how casual, how sweet he is… hey Sebek is supposed to protect Malleus, and there is something submissive in being protected, right? I think I do like sebemallesebe better if Sebe is middle aged because the potential for char dev and Sebek finally loosening up and having a somewhat healthy but scandalous sexual relationship with his king is so enticing. I cannot picture our current Sebek even daring to kiss Malleus, but give him some experience and just a bit of flirting from Malleus and he’ll have no qualms about climbing into the king’s bed. Can’t deny the king!! He wouldn’t dare! He’ll be really caring with Malleus you know, until he realizes he’s inside of him and his heart starts palpitating. The passionate kisses, oh my… he’ll give his all to make Malleus feel good… like to the point of overstimulation, and that’s a lot. Malleus has to grip Sebek’s head when he comes for the umpteenth time because my, general (!!!) Zigvolt, you’re enjoying this a bit much… before savagely kissing him hmhm
The opposite dynamic is so sexy too. I want Malleus to fuck that old man into the mattress. I want them both covered in the other’s seed. I want them to fuck each other for hours. Sebek’s deep hoarse groans into the sheets please…….. I’m sorry. Both of them are such refined, sophisticated old men… I want to see them lost in desire to the point they get so dirty… OLD MAN YAOI😭😭😭😭💜💜💜💜💜💜 passionately making out in candlelight, between the shelves in the library… somebody will smell a different cologne on Malleus…

“Now I've got two of ya lookin at your phone, instead of getting ready.” Butch sounded annoyed but he had a grin on his face when he burst into the locker room. Sheamus responded by chucking a roll of tape at him while I laughed. 
“Says the man who sends me baby pictures at 3 in the morning.” I finished my text to Lyssa before tossing the phone in my bag and standing up to stretch. I hadn’t made it more than two hours after getting her number to send her a text. It was simple, just “Hey, this is Ridge” but we’d been texting back and forth non stop for the past week. Tonight was Smackdown and she said she was watching, it gave me a new motivation to perform well. It also made me eager to get home, if we got out of the arena fairly quickly, we would be back in Orlando about 2 in the morning which would give me time to get some sleep and take care of the parts of our date I couldn’t do over the phone. I was pulled out of my thoughts by one of the interns letting us know we were up next. I grinned when I saw my phone light up, leaning over to see a text from Lyssa:
Lyssa: “Good luck!”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A thrill shot through me when their music hit, the thumping drums matching my heartbeat. It was ridiculous how excited I was, we had been texting all week and more than once I had caught myself smiling at the phone. I sat up straighter from where I had been sprawled across my couch, studying Ridge as him, Sheamus and Butch headed to the ring. They were continuing their feud with Imperium tonight, the three men already standing stonily in the ring. I had been watching WWE since the wedding but I was invested now, I knew tonight's match would be brutal. These six were always trying to straight up murder each other. 
Despite his attitude, massive size and obvious strength, that was currently emphasized by the cut off t-shirt he wore to the ring, Ridge had been a fun, engaging and interesting conversationalist the past week. He was smarter and sweeter than his in ring demeanor alluded to. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ridge: “Finally out of the arena and on the highway. With Butch driving we’ll be home in record time.”
Lyssa: “As long as he gets you guys back in one piece. Haha. Is your nose ok?”
Ridge: “Ya, it’s going to take more than a forearm from those three to break it. You worried about me?”
Lyssa: “Well, I don’t want my favorite wrestler on the bench. Then I would have no reason to watch.”
Ridge: “I’m your favorite wrestler?”
Lyssa: “John Cena’s not in the ring much these days so…”
Ridge: “Noted. Adding take down Cena and become Lyssa’s favorite to my wrestling goals.”
Lyssa: “*laugh emoji* You guys have a safe trip, I have a big date tomorrow so I need to get some sleep.” 
Ridge: “Lucky guy. Goodnight Lyssa.”
Lyssa: “*blushing emoji* Goodnight Ridge.” 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lyssa lived in a light blue and brick, 3 bedroom apartment building with a neatly manicured walkway. Sliding my SUV into one of the guest parking spots I shut off the engine and double checked her apartment number. Unit 3314, a corner apartment on the right side of the building. Following the signs, I took the stairs two at a time until I made it to her floor, pausing before her door to take a breath and make sure I hadn’t crushed the small bouquet in my hands.
My quick knock was followed by some shuffling sounds before Lyssa opened the door, immediately smiling when she saw me. Her smile lit up her whole face and caused a strange skip in my heartbeat that years of wrestling and rugby had never caused. I thought I was screwed when she’d been dragged over to dance with me at the wedding, but right now looking at her beaming at me I knew it for sure. 
“Hi! Come on in, I just have to put my shoes on.” She moved out of the doorway allowing me to step into a small hallway. 
“These are for you.” I handed her the bouquet, trying not to groan when her smile grew and her hand brushed mine.
She smelled the flowers before turning and heading further into the apartment where I could see an island with bar stools pulled up to it. “Thank you! I love flowers! I’m terrible at keeping them alive but I love their smell and the way they brighten up a room.” 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I kneeled down to grab a vase from under my sink. I didn’t need to turn to know that Ridge had followed me and was surveying my apartment. I could almost sense his presence as I set the vase in the sink to add water. He looked massive in the space but didn’t seem uncomfortable, his hands tucked into the pockets of the olive jacket he wore over a black shirt that I was sure wasn’t supposed to look that good on anyone. 
Turning I placed the flowers in the vase and moved it to the middle of my island. “I’m glad you like them. I didn’t know what your favorite was.” Ridge shrugged. 
“I don’t really have one, I like all the colors and scents. I don’t like mums. They smell weird and remind me of a hospital.” I shuddered while sliding my flats on and grabbing my jacket from the closet. Somehow Ridge was immediately beside me, holding it up so I could slide my arms in. For a big man, he sure could move quietly. “Thank you.” I smiled at him before grabbing my purse. 
Ridge hadn’t told me where we were going, only mentioning that I should wear pants. Despite my attempts he refused to budge on the surprise date location. I tried to guess as we headed away from all the fancy restaurants, giving him a raised eyebrow when we pulled into a riverside park. “Are you bringing me here to kill me?”
Ridge snorted, pulling the car into a spot. “If I wanted to kill you I wouldn’t have brought my own car.” He quickly shut off the car and exited, opening the door on my side before I had a chance to open it myself. He offered me his arm and I laughed, tucking my arm into his.
He led us on a path and I gasped, stopping in my tracks when we came around the bend. A cove from the nearby lake stretched out before us and there was a wooden dock that ended in a gazebo several yards into the water. There were twinkling lights on the railings and surrounding the gazebo creating a soft glow as the sun faded. 
“Is this ok? I know it’s not a fancy restaurant or anything but I…” he was cut off by me grabbing his arm and dragging him down the dock.. 
“This is perfect. I love it. It’s so beautiful and quiet. How did you do all this?” As we reached it, I surveyed the table in the middle of the gazebo already set with plates of covered food and drinks. 
“I’m helping a few of the rookies down in the training center. They agreed to get it all set up and cleaned up if I didn’t make them do minute planks with me sitting on their backs.” Ridge laughed and pulled out my chair before finding his seat. 
“Where are they?” I looked back towards the shoreline.
Ridge raised his voice when he answered, “Minding their own business until we are done.” 
I laughed hearing the faint sound of a door slamming and a car starting in the opposite direction we had come. “This smells good, where is it from?” I could barely contain my excitement when he pulled the covers off of our plates. 
“A little place downtown, Butch told me about it not long after I moved out here. I was pretty homesick for a while. They make food just like my mum does and the lady that runs it reminds me of her. She was way too excited when I asked for her help tonight.” He shrugged.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lyssa looked like she was going to cry, which was not in my plans for tonight. Before I could say anything she cleared her throat and grabbed my hand across the table. “This is the nicest date I have ever been on. Astaire used to take me on these fancy elaborate dates, where I had to dress up in expensive dresses and spend way too long on my hair just to be treated like arm candy all night.” 
“Don’t all girls want to dress up in pretty dresses and get their hair done?” I replied, rubbing my thumb across our entwined fingers. I was a big man and most people were intimidated around me. It worked well in the ring but it was sometimes a hindrance with women. Lyssa was different though, she’d had no qualms about dancing with me and holding my hand or arm. 
Rolling her eyes, she shrugged, “It was fun at first, but I could never just be casually dressed and comfortable. His family had money so everything was about image and maintaining it. I love my job but he wanted a trophy wife. Then I found him balls deep in another girl, and that ended that.” 
I choked on my drink at her casual attitude. There was a flash of hurt in her eyes I would have missed if I wasn’t looking at her but it was gone before she was smiling again. “What kinda name is Astaire anyway? Obviously an idiot.” She laughed at that, the full body one that had haunted my dreams since the wedding. “Tell me about your job. What do you do exactly?” 
“Basically I read through and edit books before they are printed and published. Find typos, check continuity, make sure the book flows. Sometimes I lead focus groups. But basically I get paid to read. It’s the ultimate dream job.” Lyssa groaned as she took a bite of her food. “Oh my gosh, this is soo good.” 
I narrowly avoided choking again, her groan sending a bolt straight through my body. Clearing my throat I focused back on her job. “I noticed you had several book shelves. You like to read?”
Her eyes lit up, “I have always loved reading. We never traveled much when I was younger, so I traveled in books.” 
“Do you travel now?” I asked, refilling her glass. 
“I’ve done a little, I want to see more though. I’d love to see so many places. I’m sure England isn’t a big deal to you but I would love to see it and Scotland.” she blushed a little, “I don’t mean to presume..”
“I’d gladly take you with me.” I cut her off quickly.
She nodded before resuming eating, letting the comfortable silence settle over us. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ridge held my hand on the drive back to my apartment. It was a silly, almost high school level, gesture but I couldn’t help being thrilled about it. Ever the gentleman, he opened the car door and walked me to my apartment, his hand lingering at the small of my back on the stairs. His touch was warm and gentle but firm, making me feel safe and cared for. I didn’t want the night to end but I knew he hadn’t had a lot of rest and I was still too fresh out of my relationship with Astaire to move things any further. I unlocked my door and then turned to Ridge, “Thank you for tonight, it was wonderful.”
“My pleasure” he replied before taking my hand and bringing it to his lips, pressing a soft kiss to my knuckles. “Goodnight Lyssa.” 
“Goodnight Ridge,” using his hold on my hand to balance myself, I stretched up on my toes and pressed a kiss to his cheek before stepping into my apartment.

As someone who only draw single pieces, your ability to write is fascinating to me…I’m curious, how do you start building the storyline for longer fics?
Do you just think of a scenario (e.g., A punched B in the face) first and expand around it (What happened that leads to A punching B, what happens after, do they resolve their conflict)? Or do you start with the potential story arc of your central character (how A goes from a cocky person to a responsible one), or through some other ways entirely?
(TLDR: How do you plan out the storyline of your fics?)
Oh my gosh anon you just got awarded question of the night I love talking about writing (even if im answering these bc im currently blocked from writing ASDFGHJK).
And really my answer is both in a way!! Sometimes I'll think of a scenario first and expand around it, or the potential of character arcs. Long fics can spin from any idea big or small.
The fic I'm working on now? The Four Knights actually came from a joke with a friend. We were speculating about our own separated aus for fun and I really got stuck on Megamind-stylized villain!leo that was just a silly goofy guy because yeah. Canon!leo is dramatic af. And then I started asking myself questions.
Here's the important part in figuring out a long fic, or even just writing in general, is to keep asking yourself questions.
Okay so Leo is a villain, why is he like that what led him down that path? That's a broad question that will lead down to a lot of little questions, which is where the plot starts rolling.
Okay so he's a villain because his motivation is to take over the Hidden City, but how is going to attempt to do that? Okay now he has his own version of a Hidden City gang just like the Masters of Barbarianism or Makers of Brutality, but how will this make him interact with important figures like Draxum and Big Mama?
Knowing your characters is also important. Characters are your anchor, your guideline. All this question-asking relies on knowing your character well enough to have an answer to what they would do in that situation.
The things I focus on in character writing, especially when thinking with planning a plot in mind, is their strengths and their flaws.
Now as for the Planning planning part, different writers have different techniques. Sometimes someone just needs to sit down and write what they have in their head. As for me? I'm a very dedicated out-liner.
I'll write down all the main ideas or sick imagery I had in mind. Like why does villain!leo have a bird mask, we totally gotta flesh that out. And then I begin with a rough outline of the story breaking it into different parts or acts.
I tend to do this when I'm more focused on character arcs, with a character's traits and motivations progressing throughout a story.
For me this is super brief, just a line of bullet points to keep the ideas running. And then I'll get into chapter by chapter outline.
I make chapter by chapter outlines with a broad sense of what I want to happen in one chapter and then move onto the next. Once I'm done with that I return back to the start to refine the details into bullet points.
And this is a lot (if I'm passionate abt one thing it's writing) so,
tldr: Start with a broad idea or goal, and keep breaking it down into chunks. First by questioning why the main goal would happen, and then fleshing out the details little by little.
I wish you the best of luck with writing and art!!!! The act of creation is a time-consuming, but is ultimately wonderful and full of passion. Hope my word vomit was helpful haha.
