My S.O. headcanons for the #redactedaudio universe. Because I can and why not. {#NSFW under the cut, Minors Do Not Interact.}
Angel:
- Has thrown a cane {Because of course they broke their leg doing something illegal}, at a police car.
- Baaabe and Angel have been best friends since middle school. As soon as Baaabe knew who Angel was it was immediately our girlfriend to David.
- Has said Davey Wavey with puppy dog eyes to get David to grab things from the top shelf for them. {Immediately was told to never call him that while he was laughing}, Now climbs to the top shelf and mock growls at David when he pulls them off.
---------------------------------------------------++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
- Has been a horrible person to play with one on one with Mario Kart. {David definitely has focused enough to pause the game and immediately fuck their brains out}, but horrible none the less.
- Has made David wear a Devil costume for Halloween because they dress as their pet name an Angel which makes David both horny and laugh.
Baaabe
- Has been in an abusive relationship so makes sure to praise Asher and make him feel like a priority as Asher does for them.
- Wears Asher's gym Shorts while running. {They're a runner and a track star, don't ask why, I just think Gym Babe}
- Is taller than Angel so definitely has thrown David's mate over their shoulder more than once when they did some mischievous activities.
- Baaabe doesn't do puppy dog eyes, they do a cat smile when they want something. Why? {Because they always have a devious plan, Angel's best friend for a reason}
- They prefer warm sweets to cold, I don't make the rules, but they like warm things.
Sweetheart
{They're my favorite, so if you thought I forgot you're wrong.}
- Met both Baaabe and Angel in college, has not been able to escape them since.
- Disappears on top of the fridge so they can scare Asher, has succeeded and got stuck in top of the fridge.
- Has been a dancer their whole life, so them being bendy definitely doesn't make Milo horny, and their practices aren't always timed so perfectly that Milo sees them when he gets home from work. {Wink, Wonk}
- Jumps onto furniture like a cat when they get scared, hissing at the thing that scared them has happened more than once.
- Loves when Milo gets out of the shower, helping him get ready for bed. Because they like that he lets them around when he's vulnerable.
Darlin'
{Also one of my favorites top Three along with Sweetheart}
-Military Dad, divorced parents, friends with the boys for years. Always cries on Gabe's death anniversary because that's the only good Father figure they had.
- Left for college at an Arts school met Quinn when their Dad had basically disowned them for not wanting to stay in Dahlia with him. Hence the Daddy Issues.
- Has called Sam Daddy once by complete accident, it was one of those joking things and immediately got Sam turned on, they both learned things that night.
- Likes to paint on the porch, watching the sun set and rise to relax. Sam has had to pick them up and bring them to bed because they fell asleep painting in the sun.
- Likes when Sam showers with them. They like washing his hair and making sure he relaxes makes them feel at ease.
Freelancer
- Has hidden themselves behind the large stacks of chips at Costco as a child.
- Prefers the blue candy to the red candy at stores.
- Has made Gavin carry them after sex because they like being close to him, and they get princess treatment.
- Dances around the apartment while Gavin cooks, because they like making him laugh as they try to do the Tiktok dances.
- Likes when Gavin's hands are ein their hair, it brings them comfort
Lasko's S.O.
{Let me know if they have a name}
- Prefers tea to Coffee
-Likes cold sweets, definitely eats an ice cream cone during a snow storm.
- Likes to be under all the blankets while sleeping because Lasko is cold and they want all the cuddles.
- Has made Lasko read to them just to distract him with kisses and soft touches.
- Likes seeing Lasko in charge so they watch him do paperwork so they can stare at his RBF without being noticed.

ellie gf headcanons
# modern au. im in luv with her. this is so long oh my god its an illness
did karate from 1st grade all the way up to high school and basically considers herself your bodyguard
immediately offers you her hoodie without a second thought when you show the slightest signs of being cold. she lets you keep it too, of course. what kind of girlfriend would she be if she didn’t ???!!!!
she needs either your hands on her or her hands on you at all times. sosososo touchy and BIG on pda her kisses are inescapable. constantly has an arm around you or resting on your waist… the whole world needs to know. she’s actually insufferable i’m sorry but in the most endearing way ever how can you resist
“would you still love me if i was a ____???” she wants a serious answer too
genuinely thinks ur the prettiest person alive. which is kind of the bare minimum but she worships you truly
happy with any sort of date as long as it’s with you. fancy dinner? this is the only reason she keeps a suit and tie. staying in? what movie do you want, babe? running errands? she’s already waiting for you in the car!!!
speaking of cars she drives an old station wagon which used to be joel’s. ellie used to moan about how lame it was until you said that the back was perfect for sitting together during camping or stargazing…. and other activities too ;) wink wonk
gets flustered when she makes you flustered because you’re telling her that SHE did that?? she made u nervous??? shit man now shes blushing too
her love language is gifts she loves to spoil you with your favourite snacks and soft toys and even homemade gifts. she just wants you to see her in your room and have her on your mind as much as you’re in hers!!
it’s no secret that she’s an artist and it’s also no secret that her favourite subject to draw is youuu!!! her favourite thing to do is just have you sit across from her and draw what she sees
of course naturally that means she takes tons of pictures of you… to study for her drawings… and keep in her special photo album of you… and to look at when she misses you. Ofc
makes fun of you/teases you sometimes. she can be a mean bitch to other people but she would never actually hurt your feelings and you know that
ellie hates goodbyes. even if it’s after spending a full day together and you’re going to see her soon anyways… i just know she’s the kind of person who feels empty after hanging out with someone.
calls and texts about everything… and it’s always so cute :( she definitely has autocaps on
ellie: I drew you again!!
ellie: Hey babe I saw this funny bird it reminded me of u
ellie: I miss you so much. When can I see you again?
ellie: These cats r like us lol
keeps a pet gecko or something like that for sure. it’s you guys’ baby
her top two movie genres are horror and romance after that. the only reason romance is that high up is because it reminds her of you
does stupid romcom shit like hold a boombox outside your window. makes you mixtapes even though CDs are basically extinct (joel has a player thank god). corny pickup lines. asks you to be her valentine publicly. runs to your house in the rain. dances with you in said rain.
when she gets sick it’s like the end of the world omg… she needs u to be at her side 24/7 and hold her and keep her company and give her get well soon kisses, it’s essential to her recovery. doctors orders. he said it not her!
gets along so well with your friends and family. she does her research and takes this shit seriously! whatever it takes to make you happy because what’s better than watching your girlfriend get along with the people you love
she also takes her own family seriously - family time is important to her and she spends a lot of time with joel. it’s even better when you can join, some of her best memories are with the two of you
“i’m happy as long as you’re happy”
pet names galore. her personal favourite is just babe (classic) but when she likes others too (sweetheart, honey, darling etc she’s so cheesy it’s awful)
in conclusion she’s just a clingy sappy lesbian who’s absolutely head over heels for you. and you wouldn’t have it any other way <33
bonus: (these tweets that are so ellie)
#tlou x reader#tlou fanfiction#ellie x you#ellie tlou#ellie the last of us#ellie williams#ellie x y/n#ellie williams x reader#ellie x fem reader#ellie x reader

I’m sorry, but I just got the best thought ever and NEEDED to share it with someone!!!
but like, imagine streamer!reader and Sapnap are in a situationship type thing, like you’ve had the deep talks, have made out whilst watching movies etc but you guys haven’t told anyone (not even their closest friends).
When they were at the dream smp panel or whatever it’s called, every time Sapnap went to answer a question, he glanced over at you, and then started stuttering. Like that one tiktok audio cause reader was just looking at him with admiration but also desire and seduction and Sapnap is just question his whole life.
(there’s 100% edits made of him stuttering whilst looking at reader)
also can I be 🧃anon?
this had been sitting in my inbox for forever and im sorry im responding so late but YESSSS!! I literally love this sm 😭😭
and maybe there are even streams where they're all close or whatever, and reader does like the triangle method or something like that just for shits and giggles. and he gets so flustered or even close to kissing them, and people are over analyzing the SHIT out of it 😭😭
or they just give each other these looks and those people that analyze micro-expressions are like "oh they're vvv attracted to eachother". but tbh, you wouldn't even need some to tell you that cause its palpable.
and i love to imagine that they talk about one of those movie dates and almost let it slip that they were not paying any attention (wink-wonk)
just like:
"oh, didn't we watch that?"
"yeah, i think so..."
"i literally dont remember a single thing about it tho."
"i definitely dont remember the ending."
"we got to the ending?"
"yeah, you were just to busy- nevermind..."
AND THE EDITS ARE INSANEEEE😭😭 they just give the viewers way too much ammo for them. its fucking crazy.
and i already made you my 🧃 anon, thx for asking -nony

How do I title this without sounding like a freak?
Drone Reproduction Headcanons/theories (NOT-NSFW)
You know when something presents you a fictional species and establishes that said species can reproduce. Immediately your brain starts intrusively pondering "Man I wonder how that works."
I say intrusively because it's not like I WANTED to think about it, but I've got a curious brain and it can end up kind of interesting.
Now what the hell is this about? Murder Drones, yeah, robots.
Warning: My headcanons/theories for this are ENTIRELY SFW but I will add a "keep reading" divider regardless.
also this is just so I can ramble, note that none of this is canon and it purely my own ponderings.
Let's get a few things out of the way: THEY DO NOT HAVE GENITALS, AND THEY DO NOT NEED TO DO THE NASTY!
While I definitely think humans would totally make robots that do that(because we're freaks), I'm just going to ignore that lmao.
You've probably seen this idea before, and I've heard something about the creator mentioning it but I don't have Twitter so I have don't really know.
I had an idea for this already, but also this post(TW: Implied Miscarriage) by @tomahachi12 gives it more detail. I already had an idea for the parent drones to hook themselves up with a cord, and copy both their code into.. something. But I didn't really think of how the actual baby came to be.
But now thanks to them, I've gotten a full idea.
They get the pill baby/baby drone shell or whatever you wanna call it beforehand.
Use a specialized cord to connect each other and the baby drone
Start the data transfer to the baby drone and after an hour or several, baby is officially a conscious being that'll slowly grow up!
What does this mean? Gay couples can reproduce just as easily as their hetero counterparts, nothing special required! (Am still pondering if more or less than 2 parents could be possible too)
Those afflicted with the Absolute Solver(Like Uzi, Nori, Doll, and Yeva) will have MUCH more difficulty successfully conceiving due to corrupted data.
So what about Disassembly Drones?
Since disassembly drones used to be worker drones at some point, they would still technically have the necessary code to be able to reproduce.. however, it would be unused, and they would lack port for the specialized cord. As they are mainly cloned, meaning they don't have a need to reproduce themselves. Also they don't have their own baby-forms, they'd have to use a worker drone baby-shell.. How that would effect its appearance growing up, I don't really.. know.
They'd have to be altered slightly in order to actually use that old code for reproduction, but this wouldn't be too difficult, as they mainly just need that port.
Can a Worker Drone and a Disassembly Drone reproduce? (cough cough, N/Uzi, cough cough)
Uhhh.. I'm sorry people but the answer is probably not. umu
While disassembly drones were once worker drones, they still have loads of differences in data that'd scramble the whole process, similar to being afflicted with the Absolute Solver.
And quick note for Uzi specifically: Combined with her situation where she's basically fused with Cyn now.. she's effectively infertile, sorry. That's a LOT wrong going on.
Best case scenario is that the child of a worker drone and disassembly drone would not take on any disassembly drone traits, only being a worker drone.
Conclusion?
Don't let this stop you from making any fan-kids or.. imagining other processes, wink wonk. Ahem-
This is purely my own thoughts and ideas based on the show and things I made up in my head.
If you disagree, that's fine. If you like these ideas and want to use them? Go ahead, they definitely aren't original anyways.
Some may be saddened by the fact my headcanons disable Nuzi children- and while I don't personally think Uzi would ever want kids, may I present you an idea: surrogate V. Since she is also a disassembly drone like N, and is unafflicted with the Absolute Solver. Hehe.
Have fun doing whatever you want with this.

HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE <3
to celebrate i was going to give you an itzy spam but im exhausted from school so i thought i'd entertain your minds with my newest obsession :3 BASKETBALL BABE RYUJIN UWU AND OMG I HAVE THE SOFTEST THOUGHT EVER TKEAJLKGDLKSJLKJLKSDJ erm anyways enjoy this headcanon of being girlfriends with the star of the basketball team *cough go heat cough* also shoutout to anyone that plays a sport or likes to play for fun you gays/gurls/besties are amazing 🫶🏼
warning: mentions of g!p bc i need this to happen rn or i'll cry, dom!ryujin
um first what's not to love about this girl like ???
you both met at one of her games only she teases you now about falling for her because you literally tripped over your shoes and fell on top of her as she was heading to the court to warm up
making sure you were ok she then has her eyes on you the whole game
and also makes a friendly wager with you that if she scored the last basket you'd give her your number
...
three months and one day later you both started dating and ryujin still manages to score the last basket for you
perks of dating the star player include-
becoming friends with her whole team
instant skips in line for lunch bc her team won the game last night
wearing ryujin's jersey when she's not around
and her fawning over it being on your body
on days that the match is lost or ryujin gets pulled to the bench she becomes a different person
however with you in her life ryujin's temper dies down along with her habit of breaking things expect your back bc she loves to break that <3
watching her run up and down the court working up a sweat can make you overheat sometimes wink wonk
and she knows what she's doing to you everything she looks up and sees your legs squeezed shut-
HA
locker room sex
sex in the locker room
did i mention after game sex in the locker room???
s c r e a m
her shorts on the floor, you on your knees sucking her off bc she's too tired to fuck you
swooooooooon
cumming in your mouth and then suddenly getting enough energy to pick you up and have you riding her dick with your legs wrapped around her waist-
while she french kisses you
lowkey feeling like she would like to be called daddy while she rails you....
her taking off her jersey and making you wear only that as she takes you naked from behind <3
OR better yet making you touch yourself on top of her jersey while she watches not doing anything until you stain it and then she proceeds to fuck you fast and hard
like extremely fast bc practice makes your girlfriend strong and with double endurance
oh yeah multiple rounds with ryujin are a must i don't make the rules
she'll keep going even after you pass out from exhaustion making you her pretty little cum dump :3
loves to spoil you after a very lengthy and hot 'practice' session with ice cream by uni
and she does all the laundry while you order your favorite takeout to eat and binge something cuddling in your girlfriend's arms

the Fold
ok last post for the day. Tonight’s topic: the Fold.
So we don’t know very much about it beyond:
Color doesn’t work in there
it causes psychosis and hallucinations
it lets you travel much faster than light speed.
so this is cool right? However, that’s all we know. Therefore, my theory is such:
The fold is a higher dimensional space.
due to this, light acts differently, I.E it can go faster, and given our eyes were designed for light to go at a reasonable Mach Jesus, it makes sense that in higher dimensions, given that light presumably goes Mach Jesus 2 electric boogaloo, our eyes don’t work as well.
therefore, the parts of our eyes that see color (called Cones) don’t work with higher dimensional light, because it have wavelengths in 4 dimensions, and so color doesn’t work as we would expect it to. Things still have color, but we can’t Perceive it.
given that the speed of light is different, and things can move in extra dimensions, this also means that electricity would probably do some really ****ed up things. Like giga wonk stuff, because electrons aren’t capped by stuff like “the speed of light” and “three dimensions”
therefore, maybe fold psychosis is induced by 3D neurochemistry having a violent and extreme reaction to electrons not working how they are supposed to.
this screws Everything (capital E everything) up. Synapses fire wrong, and places that require high volume transmission over (relatively) long distances (auditory, visual, and sensory cortexes) get really stuffed up.
this would cause the hallucinations and presumably, eventually psychosis, because ya know, the bits of your brain that connect to your body don’t work very well.
under 25’s aren’t as afflicted because their brains aren’t quite finished developing, and so can somewhat adapt to weird things happening. However it requires exposure, and so aurora trainees (and most school children) are exposed to some level of folding, to give them sea legs, for want of a better word.
but even under 25’s need breaks. My theory is because the brain expends a whole lot more energy just sending signals, because electrons fly off into extra dimensional space or shoot through the third dimension and screw with things, people in the fold basically experience the power draw of being awake at 150% speed, so for every minute of being alive, the body has to spend what would normally be 1.5 minutes of energy. This is why scar is compulsively snacking on the cookies on the Zero. Her body is basically burning 50% more calories than it should be, due to near constant exposure to the fold.
also it’s full of grandparent alien’s old dusty ass glassware. For some reason.
Also a ton of my reasoning here draws from the Three Body Problem series and that one really old story about the dimensions, shape world or shape land or something.

Ur a fucking incel wawawawaa 😇 ur not that good looking, the only thing thats cooking is the money she lost of your mom's lawsuit of forcing your father to take custody of you. I bet she ain't even your real mom cause there's no way you look human, AREA 51 wants their subject back cause I'm pretty sure your momma is an underpaid lab scientist thats why she failed to raise you.
Cause you're just another cheap clone that's being observed, and tumblr is a zoo observing animals like you who clearly has a defect because they couldn't put their hands off their willy and their head is just thinking "breed, breed, breed" because your head already knows you're doomed into not making a whole generation.
Not only do you lack the skills, lack the physical attributes, lack the talents, lack the intellect. Guess what? Phone's ringing. Guinness book of records called your mom for World's biggest disappointment.
You ain't carrying your family's bloodline, they're carrying you, a disappointment.
Your parents had provided for you, and you couldn't even contribute a single cell of common sense, and they wasted their money on your education? Whats that? The condom factory wanted to apologise as your birth certificate as a personal apology letter.
The only reason you have a passport so early is because your parents are hoping to send you away as soon as possible, and they hoped NASA would finally make a ship that could send you back to uranus, because it seems your head is all the way up there.
I bet that tuition would have paid your parents' dreams off, but instead, they had to deal with these nightmares, and the only reason you won in your mama's vagina was the natural selection to make 99.9% of dumber people to feel better and make their excuse that there are "worse" people out there.
I bet your math and ethic teachers always use you as a board example. That's why you're so unforgettable that you need to be studied because you're begging to be reproduced. I bet pop-eye- is jealous because of your comically large jacking off hand that you don't need spinach. Why don't we ALL work in our bed and become gym bed wonkers instead so we can aspire to have asymmetrical figure, why don't we put it as a trend to remind us of OUR hero.
Why don't we have a game dedicated to them and replace guitar hero with wonk hero. Batman is so jealous of your reputation you became his next arch nemesis the fucking Jonkler. You don't even need to fall into that acid, but it seems your mom's stomach acid already started several deformities on you, starting from your head.
You even make beetlejuice jealous because it doesn't take someone to call you three times on how pathetically you easily come. Im pretty you'd love to ride pinnochio, but it gets longer when he lies about how good it feels to be with you.

I Remember Everything
Tommy Shelby x Reader
Summary: Y/n ends up at the Garrison after a very hard few months and runs into an old friend *wink wonk*
Warnings: Swearing, smoking, drinking, mentions of child loss, Tommy being Tommy, Y/n being…well Y/n, brief mention of smut (nothing actually happens though), Country music
A/n: I said I would post this like…a week ago but I forgot I had some stuff going on and shit. And then I forgot this existed. Please excuse how shitty and kind of short it is, I kind of suck.
It wasn’t long before the pub started clearing out, Y/n halfway drowned in whiskey and her memories. She didn’t even realize who was pouring her drinks anymore, or that it wasn’t the original bartender that was pouring shot after shot of scotch in her whiskey glass for the last hour.
“Think you’ve had enough, eh?” The bartender said, reaching to grab her glass.
“I’ve had enough when I throw my money up here and walk out of this pub.” she looked up at him and immediately, her entire demeanor changed. “Fuck are you doing, eh? Bartending? What happened to the whole…”
“So you’re not drunk enough to not notice me…”
“Sadly, no.” Y/n shrugged, taking another sip of her drink. “Haven’t seen you since you left for the war.” Five years. He left for the war five long, miserable years ago. She never truly got over it, being left alone like that with the small chance of him coming back.
“Haven’t seen you since you left with the kid…didn’t expect to see you here alone anytime soon.” Thomas poured himself a glass, then poured her another.
“Neither did I…” She downed it without question as he lit a cigarette. He offered her a smoke, and she obliged, taking the first puff from it and blowing it out through her nose.
Again, another truth she didn’t want to admit. She never planned on coming back here. Having not heard from Thomas in so long, she thought he was dead. She resented this place, afraid of the memories it might have brought back for her. Afraid that she wouldn’t be able to let them go.
“You never answered my question? What happened with the whole business thing, running around here like a fucking gangster and all that?”
“Still do it, but I have to keep a few side gigs to seem less suspicious, eh?” He wasn’t wrong. He was clever, intelligent enough to actually try, add succeed covering up his tracks…most of the time, at least.
“So why are you here?” She didn’t want to answer that question, for she had been avoiding it since everything happened. “Somebody watching Willy?”
That was his nickname for William, Y/n’s son. Just the thought of his nickname brought back the memories of when Tommy would help her with him. How he would teach him things, take him places, all of that, just to give Y/n a little break. There were a few times William asked her if Tommy was his father. She told him no, because he wasn’t, but he would still slip and call him “dad” a few times.
She didn’t want to tell Tommy about what had happened, knowing it would probably hurt him too. Not as much as it had hurt her though.
“Y/n? Where’s Willy?”
She gave in.
“Dead, Thomas. He’s dead.” Her words were soft spoken, but in a mournful way. It hasn’t been two months since she woke up to her ill son cold in her arms, his heart stopped. She just wanted the memories of it to be gone already. Her reply made the man freeze, putting down his glass and looking at her, his eyes laced with worry.
“Why didn’t you come here sooner?”
“Thomas, no amount of fuckin money would have saved him, alright? No trip to this filth hole would have made him any better. What would be the fuckin point?”
“I could have helped-”
“He wasn’t your fucking son!”
“Yeah well I fucking felt like he was!” His sudden change in tone made her jump slightly, wishing she hadn’t yelled at him over the whole thing.
William was, however, like a son to Tommy. On multiple occasions, the boy would ask his mother “Can he be my father?” and she would never answer. She didn’t know what to say, her son wanting her good friend to be his dad, and the man already treating him like a son. She made sure to scold the boy when he would ask Tommy, only to have him laugh it off.
“Thomas…” she murmurs, and he reaches out and brushes his knuckles against hers.
“Don’t try saying sorry…because it’s fine.” At this point, they dropped the whole conversation about William, preventing further argument.
By the time she had finished another drink, he had caught up to her, just each other's presence bringing back the memories before the war. They weren’t bad, but they were something to drink over so you would forget about them. Forget about the whole reason the two weren’t being comfortable with each other like you used to.weren’t all happy and comfortable with each other like they used to be.
That wasn’t, however, the only good memory they tried to drown out, the two of them. Between raising her son together, there were things no amount of whiskey, scotch or Irish, could drown from the back of their memories.
The mix of their warm breaths and pants, the rustling of bed sheets in the dead of night. None of it was all that bad, but she had tried everything to forget the brush of his rough hands on her bare skin. He’d drank everything he could find for the longest time to try and forget the taste of her lips and the soft sound of his name when it slipped past them.
The silence between them was loud and irritating. One had hoped the other would speak, but nothing was said. That is, until Thomas spoke up.
“You know, I still remember it all.”
“All of what?” She pulled her hand away.
“That night before I left for the war…five years ago.” He trailed off, putting out the cigarette from earlier and lighting another. She sighed and pushed her glass away, running her hand through her hair.
“I try not to remember it…” She mumbled.
“Why is that?” A stupid question, really. A stupid, yet frequent question. She answered anyways.
“Never thought I would see you again…” It was part of the truth; with the way the war had gone, she never thought he would come out sane, let alone come back from the war at all. She never expected to see him ever again. The rest of the reason was that she didn’t think he would want her after the war. Hell, she didn’t think he wanted her at all, even as they lay together in his bed all those years ago.
Thomas had noticed she wasn’t saying the entire truth to the reason, and he sighed. “I thought of you…every single day I was out there. There wasn’t a single moment you didn’t cross my mind.”
Y/n felt her heart swell, a bit of hope in her eyes as he spoke. She felt her mind was at ease now, more at ease than the alcohol had made it.
“Every damn day I spent in that hell hole…you got me out of it.” He leaned against the bar, trying to get her to meet his gaze.
She drank some more, smiling softly- something she hadn’t done in a long time.
“There’s that smile…” Tommy murmured, the corners of his mouth turning up into a small smile as well.
“What?”
“You only smile like that when you’re drinking.”
“Oh, so you remember the night before you left, and how I smile when I’m the slightest bit drunk?” She teases, her smile turning to a smirk. He chuckles and shakes his head.
“I remember everything. Do you not?”
“I wish I didn’t, but I do. I remember it all.” Tommy passed her the cigarette, watching closely as she took a long drag from it. She leaned her head back and blew the smoke out through her nose. She passed it back to him and he took a smoke before stubbing it out.
At this point, they were multiple drinks in, reliving the stories of their past. Thomas just kept pouring and pouring, and they kept drinking and drinking. Until finally, the the bottle was empty, not a drop left. Tommy had offered to open another bottle, but she declined. She had got off the stool shakily, dizzy from the amount of alcohol she had. She then started to dig through her purse.
“Ah, keep the money. Don’t want you going broke already.” Tommy stopped her.
“It would be stupid of me not to pay you for something.”
Tommy just shook his head and came out from behind the bar. He lifted her chin with his finger and kissed her forehead gently. “You’ve payed me enough.”
With that, they both left the pub, Y/n stumbling with every step. They went their separate ways, once again. Y/n felt a weight on her chest, getting heavier with every step she took away from him. The same weight she ended up there to drink away. Her mind was racing with thoughts of if they’d ever see each other again, if they’d truly lost each other. She wanted to turn back and run to him. She wanted to. But she didn’t. She kept walking, and walking. The weight never left, nor did she think it would ever leave.
It never did

Hi there! Any new SQ content? Been down a rabbit hole of then again haha and I always love your work!
I wrote this just for you because it's been ages since I wrote these boys and turns out I have really missed it.
(Do not ask me anything about Miraculous, I have not watched it since season mid-season 3 and have no plans to. I get all my info from tumblr memes and a single person in the SQ discord who doesn't mind giving loose spark notes.)
.....
"So that's what's been up with me lately, how about you guys?"
Adrien gave a bright grin.
The other three boys stared at him in concern and confused horror for a few moments.
"Dude." Randy said empathetically.
Adrien let his head thunk on the table, "I know."
"And I thought my thing was a lot." Danny said, mostly to himself.
Jake leaned towards him, "Yeah, I actually got to talk to you about your thing. Cause it's starting to affect my whole deal."
Danny waved him off, "Later, we're helping Adrien deal with his mental breakdown right now."
"I'm not having a mental breakdown," Adrien mumbled into the wood.
"Buttercup, I think you need to have one." Randy said.
Adrien tilted to the side until he was laying more on Randy than the table, "I don't want to talk about my thing anymore. Let's talk about Danny and Jake's thing."
Jake threw his hands in the air, "It's Danny’s thing that's affecting me!"
"Look it's not the first time all of reality had to get rewritten so that everybody would forget my secret so I don't know why it's affecting you this time."
Now Jake looked like the one who should be having a mental breakdown. "I was talking about your self-appointed Title!"
"My what?"
"You heard the capitals in that too, right?" Randy whispered to Adrien, who just nodded his head.
"What do you mean reality got rewritten?! Danny did you BREAK REALITY?!?!?!"
"No! Vlad did! I fixed it! Can we go back to the titles thing cause that sounded kinda important. Like proper capitalization important."
"Danny I swear on my ancestors-"
"So like chapter titles or movie titles?" Randy asked.
Jake turned to stare at him incredulously and Randy could feel Adrien shaking from giggling.
He opened and closed his mouth a few times in response, before waving his hands in front of him like he was trying to ward off all of Randy's General personality. "Randy please, I can't deal with you and Danny at the same time."
"Hey!" Danny said in offense. Randy just nodded in understanding.
Jake groaned into his hands for a moment, before straightening up and pointing at Danny. "Phantom has been officially Titled as the Liminal Bridge. No one knows how that happened and are miffed about it. And now I have a bunch of restless spirits that keep bothering me because they somehow figured out I actually know you and they don't know how to reach you."
Danny looked confused, "No one has ever called me that. Why are you saying it like it's a big deal?"
"Because it is a big deal." Jake stressed. "In the magical community, things like that are big deals. I don't just call myself the American Dragon for fun. It's an official Title. And it comes with responsibilities only I can do, problems that only I have the authority to solve. These aren't things you can just give yourself either. It's usually done by someone with higher authority over you, it's passed down from previous holders, some very old and powerful mythical beings can bestow one on you, and sometimes the right magical artifact can if it's sentient and impressed enough. You can't just call yourself a bridge and be like "That's a thing that everybody has to call me now!"."
Danny was looking at him wide-eyed, "I uh….I mean that's kinda what happened?"
Jake's head hit the table with a 'thunk'.
"Man I've just been fighting McFist bots this entire time, y’all’s lives are wonk."
"Thanks Randy." The other three chorused.

My tavs, a (long) post
Aesthetics and backstories above ✨
(yes too many, no you can't judge me, yes I play them all once in a while, no I haven't completed the game yet with any of them, yes I also have a game as Astarion, no you still can't judge me, yes I tell you shut the fuck up with most genuine and tender love)
Lothithil, high-elf, warlock, he/they, chaotic neutral
Lothithil is an orphan (maybe his parents died in a silly accident or murdered or he is a refugee from somewhere for some reason, neither Lothithil nor I know nor really care).
He was found by an inn keeper around Baldur's Gate (Lothithil has very, very little memory of how and where the human found him, he just remembers living with him for some years)
The man who picked him up was a human and had the boy working at the inn through Lothithil's early years. The inn owner is not exactly a perfect good guy, he had never been violent and treated Lothithil bad, but he is a gambler and tended to have a lot of debts.
One day he gambled too big for his own good and he couldn't afford to repay the guys he was in debt to. So, naturally, these guys came and threatened to burn his inn if he didn’t pay. He begged them to spare the inn and offered Lothithil instead. And just like this, the boy went from hand to hand.
The boy felt a bit betrayed at first, but as he thought it out, he never got involved emotionally with the man, neither did the innkeeper. They were not family to begin with. He offered the kid a shelter, food and a place to sleep. After all Lothithil was but a stray dog to the human. So he never exactly felt mad at him, just thankful for the time he spent at the inn, but he never really held grudge (and being a long-live beings help to put things into perspective, he now just looks kind of fondly at his years at the inn).
With the group of thugs, Lothithil learnt to lie and to steal (the guys kinda liked him, the boy was resourceful, charming and fun).
After some years, those guys – who were mostly human or at least aged like humans – turned old. As they eventually aged and retired – just left Baldur’s Gate, got arrested or died anyway – Lothithil was teenish and parted way with them.
He then met a couple of human warlock, who offered him to come with them. He was more or less adopted by them and joined their family. They had very small ‘cult’ where all of them were warlocks and shared the same patron. Lothithil choose to become a warlock as well and to join the ‘cult’.
Though, they all remained humans, aging and eventually passing away. Their children took after them to carry their little cult on, but Lothithil decided to leave.
Now he is almost an adult in terms of high-elf age, and he has enough resources to get his own ass out of mess and all. He doesn’t have any specific goal in life, he just likes to hang in there, sometimes on the roads, sometimes in the city. He likes to meet people and learn about their stories, he likes to mingle with them and have some fun (*wink wonk*), but he remains relatively without ties.
He is not aromantic, but maybe demi-romantic. He is really at ease with sex and is opened to many things. He is pansexual, kind-of switch but he likes it when he has his p*ssy stuffed lol.
Ash/Lith (DU), half-high-elf, bard, they/them, neutral evil
Ash (Lith) is my Dark Urge.
Their early life was happy and peaceful. Ash’s parents were two gentle, humble humans who found the baby by their little cottage’s door. Back then, Ash had another name, but they never ever used it again after the ‘event’...
It happened one night, the whole day Ash suffered a terrible fever and, through their sleep, they heard it. The dark urge calling.
Everything happened pretty quickly, and when Ash came back to his senses, they were standing in the middle of an inferno, the little cottage burning madly and the both corpse of their parents were ripped at their feet. Wet blood gleaming under the raging flames.
Ash felt disoriented, looking at their hands covered in blood and at the two dead bodies; they couldn’t *feel* anything. As a joist broke and crashed on Ash, half of their face and their left eye were burnt. It took them out of the torpor and they ran out of the blaze.
They stayed by the burning house, looking at flames until it died as well. From the ashes, they took their new name. The dark urge remained strong within them after that, and turned them rather insensitive and disconnected from their feelings, apathetic.
They are completely aromantic, and probably something like demi-sexual, as they are actually turned on by violence, murder, lies and generally by situation like: people witnessing the results of their crime without knowing it is Ash’s doing.
After the tadpole event, even if they wake up without any memories, they feel at ease with the killing urge and love the little itch it is to them.
Willow/Tathar, half-wood-elf, paladin, they/them, neutral good
Willow (Tathar) lived their early life with their father, their human parent (he gave birth to Willow, as both mom and dad are actually trans characters).
Willow’s mother and father sincerely loved each other, but knowing he will age and eventually die way faster than her, they both agree they should parted. Though, dad hardly ever let go of his feelings for her, while she, being an elven kind, got easily detached. Yet, when mom left, she didn't know dad was pregnant (neither did dad). Dad never got angry with mom, and never really tried to find her either. He understood that elves have a different emotional attachment due to their long life expectancy. And dad knew to begin with, at the start of their relationship, that it would end this way, they enjoyed their love story, but it was just impossible for them to stay together forever, obviously.
Dad always was very sincere with Willow and explained how happy mom and him were and how they parted on an a common agreement. He also explain how he will eventually die when Willow is still young.
The both of them lived a happy and quiet life, for many years, but as dad started to age way faster than Willow, he had to have a talk with his child about their future. Father encouraged Willow to go connect with their elvish culture. As they never grew up among wood elf, Willow have some (many) things they don't know about their own origins and traditions.
Willow hardly agreed at first, but they quickly understood their father just wanted his child to have ties with their mother’s side. They promised they will left and wandered the world to learn about their culture, but only after their father is gone. They stayed at dad's side as he aged and passed away. It was their father who made them pick a god to worship. With such a patron, father was sure Willow would be safe after he left this world.
Now, Willow wander and feel eager to learn about their other mother's side, they are not especially trying to find her, as she is basically a nobody to them, but at least to learn about wood elf’s habits and customs.
Willow is a bit silly, very kind hearted. Thy can't bear injustice and don’t mind to hit first talk after if the situation requires so. They have no issues to kill, but they rather only kills the bad guys. They are a very enthusiastic person in terms of relationship, but has a hard time to label and bounder the said relationship. A friend can be a lover or a sexual partner alike. It is not mean, it is not absence of caring, but they just genuinely don’t know the limits, but if you explain very clearly and straightforwardly you look for an exclusive relationship, they will understand, but I’m not sure they will stick with you on a one-to-one relationship. Thus, Willow is clearly pansexual and polyamory.
Perslay, human, bard, he/him, true neutral
Perslay has the plainest backstory.
He is born from human parents, themselves part of a theatre company. He grew up in Baldur's Gate with them and the troupe. He started to be part of their show at a young age and he always meant to be a people entertainer. He never really went into an actual adventure ever, though he travelled with the troupe and can definitely fight for himself.
When his parents retired due to aging, and settled down in Baldur’s Gate for good, Perslay left and travelled with another company. Him and his parents are not in bad terms, he is just naturally independent and eager to perform on stage or in the street.
He only really was punched into adventure kind of travel because of the mind flayer’s abduction...
Perslay’s grumpiness and rather selfish temper makes him a bit hard-to-befriend person, but he is not completely heartless either. If you learn how to handle him, if you successfully pass through his attitude and become his friend, he will be your best ally and kill for you. But if you decide to betray him, you better be prepared man.
He is not exactly a warry person, he is more like: no matter who you are, what is your business, can you help with my problem? Come on, wanna try to stop me? Get lost.
He is very, very homosexually gay and loves big, strong men. Perslay is that one gay friend gossiping with his she friends about you. He never fell in love, but doesn’t mind trying; in the meanwhile he is a pretty sexually active guy.
Macyra, tiefling, sorcerer, she/her, lawful good
Macyra is homeless and alone; as her homeplace had been attacked and destroyed by humans. It happened when she was young and doesn’t remember much of the original event that triggers the conflict, but she remembers her father taking her sister and herself and taking them out of the house. The little village was burning and everyone was running away. They got separated at some point, her father letting go of her and she had been dragged away by the running crowd. She doesn’t know if they are dead or alive.
After the tragedy, Macyra roamed with a couple of other young Tieflings, in the wild. At some point, they met with an old woman, a sorcerer Drow living by herself in the wood. She saved them and raised them rightfully. The Drow taught them to hear and use their natural magic.
She also taught them to always remember their origins, but to not feel restricted by it; she warned them that humans would never fully accepted them, as their appearance is the stigma of their ancestors’ misbehaviour and it is not a reason to prove them right. One should be judged on their own actions and not on their kins or kinds actions.
These teachings never left Macyra as she grew up and left the Drow’s side to wander the world by herself.
In every time and place, she uses her natural magic to work for people and to try to make them see her – and her kind – as less threatening.
As she travels, she tries to find any information about her father or her sister, unable to give up on them.
Macyra is a quiet and rather serious woman. She enjoys books, calm time, and she hardly just knows how to ‘have fun’ but she is not against it. She is just kind of hard to herself, socially clumsy and always does things like taming her voice, her moves, her actions to be sure to not frighten people around her. She is naturally tall and large, and her whole appearance can be a bit scary for those not used to the sight of a Tiefling, but she is a good girl.
She is an helpless romantic, even if she never allowed herself to indulge in the warmth of romance. Macyra is not ace, but she is a bit impressed by sex and, since she is naturally large, she knows she can easily frighten partners. She never thought about her romantic label and thinks she can probably be with anyone as long as she fell for them, so you can consider her as a pansexual. Also, she might be very romantic, she is not opposed to the idea of polyamory.
Jas, githyanki, barbarian, he/him, chaotic neutral
Jas is just a… kind of himbo? Or more like he-bimbo?
Nothing goes in his mind really. Eating and using his strength is all he understands, and cares about.
Oh and he absolutely LOVES silver things (plate, forks, weapon and coins alike).
He will do whatever you ask him if you are persuasive enough, unless it is the opposite of what he wants.
About his young years, he has a rather classical life for a githyanki. Fight and fight and win fight and one day, ride a dragon kind of life.
After the mind flayer’s abduction, he sticks to Lae’zel. She is like him. She looks pretty. She is strong. She can fold him in half. She is githyanki with a brain.
She is not ugly and kid of scary like the long nose guys and the horned dudes.
He hardly grasps the concept of romantic attraction, but is really happy at anyone able to give him a good time, pegging him down, regardless of gender.
Veylin, half-drow, warlock, he/him, chaotic neutral
Veilyn is an orphan Drow (half elf, half Drow actually, but that is fact unknown to himself) who was raised in the Underdark.
As an orphan, he ended up "employed" (basically a slave) at the house of a rich and powerful Drow's couple.
He was their "boy-who-do-everything"; cleaning, cooking, shopping, and other dirtier jobs: like cleaning after their ‘parties’ (if you know what I mean), or if the couple had an enemy, Veylin was sent to assassinate them over the night.
At some point, Veylin grew exhausted of this lifestyle; especially since he is not exactly well treated, being fed with left overs or little dishes, being physically punished when his work is not good enough – or when one of them is just upset –, assisting to all kinds of debauchery, and having absolutely no freedom.
One day, another slave decided to riot. They teamed up with other slaves and started to fight with those who were still loyal to the Drow’s couple. It all was a big mess.
People fighting, slaves running away, house burning, authority coming to try to settle the shit down. But, in the end, Veylin used that opportunity to run away.
By then, he is barely a young adult who knows nothing from the outside world, apart from its existence. He is barely able to read; but he knows how to speak basic, since the Drow couple had many kind of visitors and he had to learn how to serve the guests well. He has good assassin’s skills, he can cook.
Though, he never ever saw something as shiny as the sun ever, so when he finally, firstly reached the outside world, he was scared by sight of so many light and hid back for a while. As night came, he saw the light going down and wandered out. It was a shock for him, that the outside world can be sometime so full of light and sometimes so dark.
Veylin started to travel, mostly at night, because he is more at ease with the darkness. At some point, he met with another traveller, their encounter was a bit chaotic at first, as the other traveller was a green-skinned woman Tiefling with long, curved horns and dancing tail. Veylin never ever met a Tiefling before, and he felt a bit freaked out, but the Tiefling was kind and patient enough to help and explain. She explained about her kind and listened to Veylin’s story; she also warned him about how Drow were perceived in this world and he should learn to act accordingly. They parted ways at the next village, after she showed him the basics of life here.
After the abduction, Veylin’s main goal is to get rid of the tadpole at every cost.
He won his freedom and he craves to keep it. He will kill and fight his way out of anything without hesitation in the name of his own freedom. On his journey, he will learn how to make friend, open to others and – most importantly – entrust others, but it is not an easy thing for him.
Veylin is still young, unexperienced in terms of love, but experienced in terms of sex. He doesn’t mind the gender of his partners, but he definitely is a bottom.
Kiaran, drow, wizard, she/her, neutral good
Kiaran is an old Drow lady who values knowledge and culture above anything. She lived part of her young years in the Underdark with her mother. One day, a man came in their life, a human wizard. He was kind and wise, he initially visited the Underdark for his researches, but fell in love with Kiaran’s mother and stayed with them. He was kind to the little girl and taught her the base of his knowledge. Kiaran liked him and his words a lot, they could spent all days together, reading books and learning magic, he said she was really talented!
It was a nice period. After some years, the human proposed the two Drow to come with him, back to the outside world. They agreed.
Kiaran was still young, but she clearly remember the amazement it was to her, to discover so many new things. They installed with him in his laboratory, on the edge of a village. More nice years passed peacefully; even though the villagers weren’t so happy to have ‘dark elves’ so close to their homes, the old wizard always managed to keep peace in the neighbourhood.
But the wizard was an old human and he eventually passed away when Kiaran was still young. As he was not there anymore to protect them from the villagers, then the tragedy occurred.
They came and threatened them, wanting to force them away. Kiaran’s mother refused, saying they have as much right to stay there as these humans. They disagreed, but left them be. For now.
The head of the village paid a mercenary to come and get rid of them. The man acted at night, locking all doors and windows from outside, and set fire to the laboratory while the two Drow were sleeping. They woke up and tried to get out, but all the exists were blocked. So, Kiran’s mother took her daughter and ran upstairs, and from one of these windows, she throw the girl out.
Kiaran survived, but had her face and body burnt, and had other injuries from the fall. Her mother died in the house, alongside with all the old wizard’s books, notes and knowledge.
After that day, Kiaran decided to never ever let anyone look down on her or treat her bad regarding her appearance or origins. She wanders the world to learn always more and more, she also take on herself to educate people the soft or hard way on her journey.
She is basically your local mommy; bisexual, and kinda dome-like, she doesn’t mind her partner’s preferred role, she can do it all.

I'm starting a new project! Calling it my Firefly sweater. This is the 2.0 version because the first didn’t really come out the way I wanted it to and I want some kind of redemption 😅
The main reason and inspo behind this design is Shygirl's song "Firefly" and I guess to an extent her whole album Nymph. The design is informed by the albums visuals and some of the musical/lyrical themes which point to nature. "Firefly" itself is rather whimsical and so I hope to have a smidge of that in the final design. I feel like Bjork's "Joga" is a sister to this.
The idea is basically a long sweater or even a sweater dress of sorts. I’m trying to think of some different silhouettes that I don’t typically find and play around with interesting fit and shape. Nothing too crazy, and I know I'm not doing anything that hasn't been done before, but that’s one of the aspects I like about designing! I’d like to, every now and then, make something beyond the typical cut of sweaters, shirts, or vests.
These are some of the things that come to mind as a point of inspiration and reference to what this may look like in the end.
I don't tend to sketch my ideas, so I don't have a drawing of my vision at this time. When I do sketch (as seen in figure 1) it is often more to help visualize a pattern. In this case the sweater will have two sections. The bottom edge will be the lime green mohair and it will meet and change into the blue wool.
I knew I wanted to revisit this idea and I had a burst of inspiration while on a trip to Newfoundland with my dad this past spring. We drove across a good portion of the island and the landscapes out the window really helped me re-envision the design. I was particularly enamoured with the fjords we passed through, so that is what I hope to emulate at the colour change.
I made a large swatch. It's a little wonk because i was trying to test the best way to add the wool to the mohair. I quickly figured out what would be best so I half stopped doing my test but kinda continued it but then just gave up. But the important thing is I figured out what I'm going to do.
I have never worked with mohair before. I will be holding it double and I hope that things go smoothly 🤞🤞 currently there are hairs every where, in everything.
I'm trying to blog more.. idk. I've always loved tumblr and kinda prefer it over other social media. So I hope to keep posting updates like these. I will also be vlogging this shit as I'm trying to be a youtuber lololol. So look out for this but in video form.
If you read this all thanks!

Wait, do you two live together? Can we get to know a little more about you?
Kkkkiiiinda. It's... Eh, alright, let's give a little rundown from when the Tower collapsed:
I grabbed "Fake Peppino," as we knew it at the time, on my way out of the Tower. It was instinct. I couldn't leave anyone in there in good faith, even if they kicked my ass.
"Fake Peppino" took to this rescue in a way that was really weird to me. First this creepy clone-thing of me was trying to kill me in that tower, now he's crawling around the walls of my Pizzeria, copying my moves and hanging out with everyone.
It was an active few months from then on out. Peppino's Pizza became a bit of a hangout spot for the Tower's refugees. I... loved it, to bits. It got annoying and stressful, and my anxiety would always make things worse, but in the end it was always some loud, goofy fun. Business boomed. I stayed afloat and partially payed off some of my loan.
Eventually, stuff started to calm down. Construction projects started popping up nearby; Toppins and cheeseslimes and Bosses and the likes making homes for themselves, relocating, finding new places to go. Business slowed.
I'd encounter Fake-me at odd times, like after dark or at dawn before opening. He'd always coincidentally be taking out the trash at the same time as me, or it'd somehow already be in the parlor before it opens, cleaning dishes, mopping the floor... like it owned the place.
It pissed me off.
Thinking this guy was trying to take over my Pizzeria and commit identity fraud, I met it out back after closing one night, ready to lay down a good beating, verbal or physical.
You said to me, "I don't know what your deal is, but you can't stay here."
Up to that point, I was working on how I would fit as a piece in this new world Peppino created. I figured-- the easiest thing to do-- was what I formed to do in the first place. Mimicry was safe. Mimicry was all I knew.
So I picked up on his habits-- his daily routines, his day at work. My prior makeup has allowed me to keep up, cooking wise, and knew I could seek refuge in the place I was named for. It worked at the Tower all those ages ago, after all.
That night behind the Parlor was difficult. I repeated back at him, ",ereh yats t'nac uoy tub ,si laed ruoy tahw wonk t'nod I"-- I felt the burst of emotion from him that came after that. Not anger-- fear.
We fought. Violently.
Eventually Peppino tired himself out, and he stopped. So I stopped. He was out of breath, so was I. He was snarling in fright. So was I.
We sat and stared at each-other for an hour. I breathed, stared, sat and moved as he did. Peppino noticed. He'd lift a hand, I'd lift one. He'd stand up, I'd stand up. He'd cower back, I'd cower back. And so on.
That's about the part when I realized how much more simple this was. So I experimented a bit. Moved around, see what Fake-me would do, and see how uncanny-but-accurate he could get. It weirded me the hell out, seeing it so close. So...
Docile.
Sure, he'd hang out in the background, copying me from afar, but we'd never really... interacted face to face for such a long period of time. Now that everyone was sorta gone, this was kinda... the moment. To get to know it more.
So I kinda broke down. To my embarrassment, so did Fake-me. Just as ugly, gross, and pathetic of a crier as I am. After that, we sorta made up.
First off, I didn't know Fake-me could speak. Mumbles and backwards, repeating me here and there, but... Actual genuine conversation? It scared the shit out of me. In the silence, it asked, "Where do we go," and I didn't have an answer.
This fucker disarmed me with that sentence. I kinda realized this whole time I was scared of stuff going back to... the ghost-town that I'm used to. And I wouldn't really have anyone around.
I asked its name. It replied, "Onipepp". My name backwards, of course. "Onipepp?" I repeated back, and it nodded. "...Oni. Like a demon. I'll call you Oni from now on." He liked that.
And from there... Uh, sheesh, we've gone on for a while. Anything to add?
You offered me a job. "Since Gustavo and Brick opened their own place," you said. "They're competition now. I'll need the help."
I went through training. He was impressed with my previous skills, often showing a bit of fear or insecurity. That eventually went away.
I'd spend days with Peppino. At night, I'd linger in the rafters, as I always would. I'd chase off all sorts of threats to the Parlor he wouldn't even think about. But I would never follow him home.
I didn't know where he lived, or what was considered his home. I've always lived in the places I form for. I never questioned it.
I keep to myself, but sometimes Peppino would ask me things. "Do you get lonely in here?" "Do you eat? Sleep? Do you need anything?" I'd always respond "I don't know."
A big storm happened, and wrecked the roof of the Parlor. Construction had to happen. It got cold, it got wet, it was noisy. I followed him home that night.
He didn't stop me, like I thought he would. Not a word was said. I was let inside, I looked around, and he says, "Make yourself at home". The phrase confused me.
Regardless-- I'm welcome here now, whenever I want.
Uh-huh. Been a wild few months for you. But you've managed pretty damn well, I gotta say.
(...you have too.)

not to sadpost on main but uh. i don't think i usually talk about super personal stuff on here?? but today i got a surprise call that the date of my full hip replacement is next wednesday, barely any time to take it in or prepare. i spent half the day crying, and the other half arranging cover and ineffectually trying to do my job😭 the worst part is that one of my best friends is getting married soon, and i'll have to miss the wedding. i booked everything for it, and it's the only thing i had to look forward to the past year. we're so close i feel like i'm letting her down. i feel so guilty.
i'm grateful for artfight because even though i'll be recovering throughout it'll give me something to enjoy while i'm not afloat to the tonsils in painkillers. also, walking again!! without a stick!!!!!! running, even, eventually!!!!!!!!!!!! i've been in pain my whole life and maybe now it'll stop. i feel sick but i'm trying to focus on the bright side. idk i hope this wasn't too heavy or whingey i just needed to write it out. everything will be fine in the end, wink wonk

[taps microphone] you do not need to answer this but will Jouta be canon at all in wwm/ta? also what are your opinions on Jouta in general?
NO sorry jouta won't be canon in the wwm/ta verse. we actually get a little into it like...indirectly it's hard to explain. like jotaro and kakyoin having kids together is not gonna be discussed but like. well you'll see wink wonk
AS for jouta in general. to be honest i dont, uh, think of him much 😭 i dont necessarily have beef with him as a character (considering he barely had one in the doujin) but i dont really like what i read of jojo's bizarre married life LOL. i didn't finish it to be fair maybe i missed the best parts but as it stands i jsut didn't like it and I'm not interested to see the full thing. not even cause kakyoin characterization (though i FUCKING HATED the calling him mom thing though i feel that was more a cultural difference that rubbed me wrong than anything else like the usual "dumbing kakyoin down so he's easy to get off to" thing) BUT cause of the jotaro characterization. he felt so fucking out of character it pissed me off so bad. it's funny cause clamp does understand that yeah jotaro would probably be a bad dad esp at 17, but they got the reasoning all wrong. not even naming his own fucking child fucking please don't piss me off (i will say the charmy green naming scene was really funny though). jotaro is a bad dad because he hates himself not because he hates his kids jesus christ. also fucking jotaro and jouta fighting for kakyoin's attention??? what are they, DOGS??? it creeps me out bad when fathers get jealous of their own kids about their PARTNER it seriously creeps me out so bad so i really hated that like basically the whole plot focused on that. on a lighter note i couldn't suspend my disbelief with the egg thing. i like to think i can handle a lot with bizarre stuff (🤪) but i need SOMETHING of an explanation even if it's a bad one. but they don't explain it at all like how it happened, jsut like "ohh their love" WHAT DOES THAT MEANNN WHY DOES JOUTA LAY AN EGG LATER TOO OUGHGJ LIKE I GET IT'S SOME LOVE THING BUT WHAT IS THE MECHANISM WHY DO SOME COUPLES DO IT BUT NOT OTHERS it's a lighter thing but that also annoyed me. so yeah i dont like jojo's bizarre married life and as a result i dont really like jouta 😭😭 BUT i love all the creative stuff people have done with jouta and kinda making him his own, i'm so glad ppl are having fun with it. cause it's not jojo's bizarre married life is like a BAD thing, it's jsut not my thing personally 😔 UM BUT YEAH sorry for the rant 😭
