#these are always super fun though!!! they get my muse going

[turning-the-kaleidoscope]

How about Terumob with an overjoyed hug?

(thank you for the prompt!! <3 I went with an airport reunion because Feelings <3) - terumob airport reunion, fluff, future fic (think like 6-7 years post canon, no spoilers)

~*~*~*~*~

Teruki's feet hurt from pacing. He must've walked the whole airport at least twice--grabbed a coffee from one shop, canned melon juice from another, a handful of snacks he thought Shigeo would enjoy, another coffee... reasonably he could be doing something more productive with his time, but he's not been known for rationality when it comes to Shigeo.

Shigeo profusely encouraged Teruki to go home when he realized his flight had been delayed, but Teruki's having none of that. It's only been a week but he's missed Shigeo, and he'd rather pace the airport for five extra hours than be five minutes late whenever his plane finally lands.

As far as he's concerned, it's not that unreasonable.

He stops by a vending machine near baggage claim to check his phone. 11:37pm. Either Shigeo's fallen asleep on the plane or he forgot that Teruki paid for him to have in-air service, because Teruki hasn't heard from him since he boarded. He checks Shigeo's plane on his flight tracking app. He's supposed to be landing in ten minutes. He buys Shigeo a coffee and goes back to waiting.

Seven minutes later:

[Shige <3] we just landed! are you still waiting? I hope you went home :( I'm sorry it took so long

[Teru <3] welcome home!! <3 I'm at baggage claim, I'll keep an eye out for you. I got you coffee :D

[Shige <3] :( you didn't go home

[Teru <3] your coffee's getting cold love seriously I wouldn't have done anything productive at home. I brought my ipad and graded a couple papers while I've been waiting

[Shige <3] :( I guess that's not so bad the row ahead of me just stood up. i'll see you in a few minutes! <3

[Teru <3] !!! <3

Teruki shoves his phone in his pocket and takes another lap around the baggage claim. The airport is startlingly busy this time of night, but that makes sense. A lot of flights were delayed at the same time as Shigeo's, and the godawful storm that's been rocking Seasoning City earlier today. Every time a group of people exits the hall Teruki's on them at once, combing through them for any sight of his husband. He isn't the only person waiting, either: he watches several people get their reunions, families and couples and friends. He's let down each time it isn't Shigeo.

"Teru!"

Teruki snaps around. Shigeo waves at him from the other side of the airport, beaming. He looks exhausted and he's standing a little lopsidedly, but it's absolutely Shigeo, wearing a scarf over one of Teruki's tye-dyed hoodies and washed denim jeans.

Teruki kind of forgets about not sloshing the coffee around. He guns it, heels slamming, and Shigeo half-runs, half-jogs to meet him there.

Teruki captures him in a hug so fierce his heart nearly flies out of his chest. He lets his aura take care of the coffee and squeezes Shigeo for all he's worth, and doesn't realize he's picked Shigeo's feet off the ground until Shigeo's laughter fills his senses and Shigeo's arms wrap around his head.

Shigeo's always swept him off his feet, and it's so gratifying to be able to do the same. Even if Shigeo is heavy and deadweight from exhaustion over a day of stressful travel. Shigeo's fingers curl into his hair and his forehead bonks the crown of Teruki's head. He smells like burnt plastic and he is so, so warm.

"I missed you," Teruki stresses. "I missed you, I missed you, I missed you--"

They probably look ridiculous, Shigeo wrapped around his head laughing while Teruki's knees tremble under the weight and a paper cup of coffee hovers on its own beside them. And yeah, Teruki's still got his vain streak about him--along with the rest of his reservations. God, he’s smitten.

Shigeo squirms and Teruki doesn’t want to set him down, but he can’t see Shigeo like this, either, so he obliges. Shigeo’s smile eradicates any clinging trace of anxious energy in the back of Teruki’s mind.

“I was only gone for a week,” Shigeo says, out of breath. He grabs his coffee out of the air and Teruki loosens his aura from around it. “Thank you for picking me up.”

“Of course!” Teruki squeezes his hand. “Come on, let’s grab your suitcase and get out of here before the storm kicks up again.” 

Shigeo lets Teruki lead him forward, familiar hand in familiar hand.

MASTERLIST | PROMPT LIST

———————

ACE

You knew nothing would ever happen between you and the Division Commander. You knew he was just a likeable guy who was friendly and warm with everyone. Countless times you told yourself that he was just nice with everyone and yet still you couldn’t help but feel your heart beat just a little faster when he smiled at you and you couldn’t stop yourself from liking him a little more each time he spoke with you and spent time with you outside of chores and tasks being done onboard the ship. It didn’t matter though, even with the knowledge nothing romantic would happen you were happy to be considered a close friend of Ace’s.

One morning you were perched on the edge of the ship’s railing and keeping a critical eye on the thick wall of cloud draped over the entirety of the sky above the next island you were approaching. It made a stark difference to the clear blue you and the rest of the crew were currently under. You were no stranger to the absurdity of the ever changing weather and separate climates certain islands had but seeing what you were going to be greeted with was starting to sour your mood. It wasn’t as fun stopping at an island if there was a storm to endure.

“Glaring at the clouds won’t make them change you know.” You looked over your shoulder to see Ace hop up onto the railing and sit down beside you. Glancing out of the corner of your eye you were jealous of how relaxed he was and let out a long sigh as you returned your stare to the clouds you could now see were darker than you had originally thought. 

“Who knows, stranger things have happened on these seas.” You mused, scowling harder now that the idea was in your head. “Maybe I have the ability to control weather and neither of us knew it? Don’t know unless I try.”

From beside you Ace laughed, reclining back to support his body on his elbows and grinned up at you. 

“If that were possible, that’d be a pretty dumb gift. Glaring at clouds to make them obey you? You’d get a headache all day.” You rolled your eyes and laughed, getting more comfortable too, lying down and tucking your arms behind your head. 

“Look we can’t all be super amazing and control fire like some people, Ace.” You teased, a small yawn breaking from your lips as your eyes closed. You were still a ways away from the stormy island so you may as well make the most of the sunshine and warmth until then. “Some of us are just boring.”

“I definitely wouldn’t call you boring.” Ace told you. Safely in the knowledge that you couldn’t see him, he could observe you carefully with softened gaze. “You’re one of my favourite people to hang out with.” 

“Aw thank you love, you always know just what to say.” Your relaxed smile brightened considerably but you were too drowsy to open your eyes again to look at the man beside you. It was also why you hadn’t realised your slip of the tongue. Ace however tensed and sat up a little straighter from his once relaxed position. His eyes were widened and a soft pink was dusting his freckled skin. All this time he’d thought his feelings were one-sided and now he was hit with the reality that it might not be the case. Overcome with a burst of excitement and hope he quickly lay back down and used his hat to hide his giddy expression and began to think about how to subtly broach the subject when you were awake.

SABO

“You’re not going to improve if you don’t keep your focus.” Hack lectured, swiftly knocking Sabo back with ease. Sabo managed to recover from the attack and retaliated with one of his own that was completely dodged to the point it made the attack look so pitiful. Hack paused in the sparring match to frown at the younger Revolutionary. “Seriously, what’s with you today? Do you need to take a break?” Quickly Sabo shook his head and forced himself to keep his attention on Hack but even then he couldn’t help but feel your presence silently calling to him. 

You were oblivious to the power you had over the Chief of Staff, even from the very first day you joined the Revolutionary Army you’d somehow managed to make Sabo immediately endeared to you. Given Sabo’s personality he was able to pass off his momentary slips and lack of concentration when you were around and for the most part others hadn’t made the connection. Most being the word. People like Hack, Koala, and Dragon however knew. Normally Hack wouldn’t mind and ignore it but this was the third time in the short amount of time of the sparring match that he’d seen Sabo zone out and look your way as you were speaking with Dragon about a recent mission you’d been on. Enough was enough. After knocking Sabo onto his back, Hack turned and called you over. You finished your conversation with Dragon and approached the sparring pair with a soft, expectant smile while Sabo got to his feet. “I want you to spar Sabo with me. Perhaps having two opponents will help sharpen his dulled senses.” 

You became concerned to hear Hack’s less than complimentary tone at the blond and you looked to Sabo with a light frown, scrutinising his features carefully. Could it be he was sick? Was something else be bothering him? It wasn't like the Chief of Staff to be so distracted especially when it came to his training. At the suggestion of you fighting along with Hack, Sabo’s expression became a mix of uncertainty and irritation. He didn’t want to spar against you but he couldn’t outright deny Hack requesting you join them given he had no real reason to oppose it. Sabo could only take a breath and adjust his stance while praying he didn’t make an embarrassment of himself.

At first having you as part of the fight helped Sabo when it came to focusing on the fight, by having two skilled fighters attacking he didn’t have the ability to pay attention to his personal feelings. However when he kept his sight on Hack as the priority he’d slipped up and forgotten you. You took the window of opportunity and ducked under Sabo’s arm, your face less than inch from his. Quickly you hooked her arm around his and tucked your foot around his ankle, twisting and knocking him to the ground. You kept a firm hold on Sabo’s wrist and pressed your knee into his back. “Give up sweetie?” you asked innocently, unable to see Sabo’s eyes widen. Before he could respond you were abruptly called for by another Revolutionary to go out on a mission. Pouting you released Sabo and left him and Hack. 

“Please tell me I didn’t imagine that…” Sabo uttered, almost begging Hack. He looked up to see the Fishman grin at him and help him to his feet. 

“No I heard it too. Funny thing is I don’t think they noticed they did it.” Sabo watched your retreating form and brightly smiled. 

“Interesting.”

LUFFY

For the most part Luffy can be considered fairly clueless about a lot of things if they don’t involve his ambition to be King of the Pirates and obtaining the One Piece, doing whatever he wanted and eating all he wished. That included his own deeper feelings at times. However no matter how complex Luffy’s emotions were about certain things he found it easier to break them down into more simplistic views and gain a better understanding about them. He found he had to do that with you and the longer you were part of his crew the more he had to take an inward look at his feelings. So far he was able to discern that he liked you, he liked being around you and it was mutual because you’d been all too eager to join his crew. For the longest time it was simple as that. 

Things however became complicated one night after he and the rest of the crew helped free another town from a corrupt ruler. As always the celebration was a large affair with plenty of food, music and drink. While Luffy wasn’t a drinker and happily indulged in all the food he could get his hands on, you were pulled into a drinking contest with some of the locals along with Nami, Zoro, Franky, and Usopp. You’d managed to hold your own for a respectable amount but when you felt the world being to tilt and your mind grow hazy you knew you wouldn’t be able to handle anymore. 

Staggering from the table you somehow managed to wander to the only spot you knew you’d feel completely safe and content with. You didn’t know how you managed it, call it instinct or sheer will but you stopped beside your Captain and slid down to sit on the soft grass beside him, leaning against his back for support. Luffy looked over his shoulder to grin at you before continuing to eat. “You lost huh?” he laughed before taking a large bite of a meat skewer.

“It’s cheating when Zoro plays.” You grumbled, shifting to get more comfortable against your Captain. “He’s so smug too. Didn’t even wanna win anyway.” You fell into soft laughter with Luffy and then drifted into content silence. Subconsciously Luffy moved while he ate, seamlessly turning so you were leaning against his side and neither of you seemed to even notice the new position.

When morning came and you woke with a hangover and lack of memory you let out a worried groan, hoping that whatever you’d done wasn’t too embarrassing or at the very least you hoped that everyone else was also too drunk to remember too. Wincing you pushed yourself up to see that you were in your own bed. Hazily you tried to force your brain to work and managed to pull out the image of Luffy which made sense, he was your go-to for anything. Knowing he didn’t drink, you knew you could also rely on him for the truth on what you failed to remember. You found Luffy sitting on Sunny’s head just as you knew he’d be but you became worried to see him frowning, deep in thought. “Everything okay Luffy?” you asked, flinching when Luffy’s head swiftly snapped around to look at you intently. 

“No! You’re not allowed to call me that.” Immediately worry and guilt took hold. What had you done? Would he ever forgive you? Oh no, what if it was so bad he’d kick you off of the ship for good. 

“Wh-what do you mean?“ You asked panicked and feeling sick which was not from the hangover. “Whatever I’ve done I’m sorry but I don’t remember. Please tell me what I did wrong. I can fix it.”

“You didn’t do anything wrong.” Luffy’s expression became confused. “I’ve just decided that you can’t call me Luffy anymore I like what you called me last night after I helped you to bed better.” 

“Oh…” you couldn’t tell what you were feeling in that moment exactly. Desperately you tried to think what you called him, silently thankful that whatever it was hadn’t offended him. “Well if you want me to call you that instead you have to remind me.”

“You called me dear.” Luffy grinned while your face reddened.

bill cipher , stanford pines x reader

ohh my god PLEASEE request stuff for gravity falls i love it so much ty for making a comeback!! i don’t normally do nsfw stuff but for them… nsfw under cut 💔 another one here

sfw

- gonna be honest, ford is a little control freak especially after he meets bill

- he likes things going according to his plans and calculations and if they don’t, then there’s clearly something wrong

- bill WOULD constantly inflate his ego so when ford had hired you to be his little lab assistant, it was a little suffocating

- despite this, he was super happy to learn that you were into the same things he was; anomalies

- ford was uptight and serious with you most of the time whereas bill was nonchalant and just a massive tease

- the demon didn’t really mind you, you were pretty open for anything and he, like ford, liked how you were a massive pushover

- on the other hand, bill disliked fiddleford because he asked too many questions, he was too wary (though he had the right to be)

- ANYWAYS, would ford and bill peer pressure you into letting yourself be possessed? yea..

- it’s not like ford was really in the right mindset to be making these huge decisions like the guy was crazy obsessed with bill

- he didn’t see the harm in it, bill was his muse after all and it was very valuable for his research! just do it!

- so you would, you still have a few scars on your thighs from bill’s obsession with pointy sharp things

- sometimes bill would prank you while being in ford’s body - not like you could tell the difference

- being all flirty while mimicking his voice and then yelling “JUST KIDDING!” before laughing obscenely in your face

- wow he loved humiliating you, it was almost as good as humiliating ford

- ALMOST

- they kept their plans pretty secret from you, only commanding asking you to get materials for the portal

- it’s kinda like that one meme that i see floating around;

you: what’s going on with the portal

bill/ford: don’t worry about it kitten

you: okay ❤️

you: yay ❤️

- they weren’t worried about you leaking anything, bill just liked keeping information from you to poke fun

- you were just in-flight entertainment, a plaything to bill, ford kept you as a means to keep himself grounded

nsfw

- you never really got intimate with ford, not like you didn’t want to but he was always so busy and it would technically be taboo considering he was your boss

- but he had to let off steam somehow, and his muse was here to help! consider the town SAVED ❤️

- with bill possessing him, “ford” would stuff his fingers down your throat and watch you gag

- i can’t even lie man if you vomited or something he’d probably get off to that more he’s a freak like that

- ford would gawk in horror as he watched himself bend you over onto his messy desk like a rag doll and rip the clothes off of your body

- bill doesn’t necessarily gain any sexual gratification from this, but he certainly “gets off” to it in some other twisted way

- he likes the control he has, your whining and ford’s gasps only egg him on further

- he likes to hold you down by your throat and make small cuts on your inner thighs while he sloppily eats you out, probably with anything that was lying around nearest to you, a pocket knife or even a unicorn horn

- SCRATCHES ohh my god this guy scratches so much somebody cut his nails

- fucking imbeds his damn fingers into your waist as he thrusts into you, all the while laughing like a madman

- the noise of squelching and muffled screams spilled from ford’s office, be glad your in the middle of the forest

- he 100% licks your tears away btw

- ford likes to act shocked or squeamish whenever bill does this to you but bill knows he loves it, and deep down inside he knows it too

- maybe not the “harming you” bit, but he loves everything else

- he’ll probably scold bill for being so rough with you but bill would probably lie and say “It was necessary! This is a whole NEW experience to me! You can’t deny me of that can you Sixer?”

- and then ford folds like a loser

- he’ll try and make it up to you by tending to your wounds and giving you a way lighter work load

- ford hopes that one day he’ll have enough confidence to be able to make love to you without his twisted muse butting in

- he kinda loves it bye

“It’s a conversation between them which is ironic because we’ve never really talked about it”

“But, you know, right?”

“I know”

Taehyun: Grumpy x Sunshine

- Tae isn’t a grump, he just doesn’t take bullshit

- add that to his generally “cold” exterior, and he’s sending a lot of people running for the hills

- which is exactly why no one can figure out how the literal embodiment of sunshine is his friend

- there is a difference between kind and nice, and you are definitely the latter

- you aren’t necessarily stepped on, but you take a lot more than you probably should

- but now it’s normal for one of you to pull the other to your room to escape

- it eventually just turns into talking/gossip sessions

“So… how do you feel?”

“I feel like I want to take you out on a date”

“I’d like that”

Hueningkai: Best Friend’s Brother

- when you first saw kai, you’re pretty sure you died and went to heaven

- genuinely, your friend must feel like a third wheel even though you came to see HER

- Kai begging to crash your girl’s nights and being refused by everyone

- but then you’re back the next day because you “missed them” and since it’s not technically girls night, he can stay

- the way neither of you know the other’s feelings is so :(

- until his sister suddenly screams for one of you to confess and then storming out of the room

“So… about what she said…. Was it true?

“Yes, it’s okay if you don’t feel the same…“

“Of course, I feel the same! Have you seen yourself?”

————————-

I left Kai’s sister unnamed so you could be older/younger than him

I love txt so much :( I wish there was more writing for them

Please this is my first thing ever don’t be mean, I WILL cry

If you like it, let me know anything else you’d like to see :))

Saw a post about you wanting welcome home requests. Dont know how old it is but.

What would wally be like as a CG???

Feb,20,2024

Caregiver Wally Darling!

A/N: OMG YAY!!! I already have a shorter more general version of this on my blog, so I’m gonna repeat myself a bit here, but that’s okay because I love this man and I really wanna talk about him.

He is such a good caregiver, I think. Like…he struggles a bit at first but he eventually gets the hang of it and does really well!

I mean. He is quite literally the host of a children’s TV show. He knows how to take care of and entertain kids.

He likes taking you out on little play dates and adventures. One of his favorite things to do is take you to the park, and you often see Julie and Sally there, so you play with them a lot. :)

He paints you a lot. You’re his muse. ❤️

Speaking of painting, if you’re down for it, he’d be happy to paint with you! Finger paint, watercolor, anything! And if not, that’s okay too! He’s fine with just using you as inspiration.

He actually made a deco paci for you one time (if you use pacifiers)! It was for your birthday. You have loved and cherished it ever since.

If you ever draw or color something for him, it immediately gets hung up on the fridge or on a wall somewhere.

He does better with calmer littles. If you’re like me and you get very sleepy randomly or very easy, he has no problem with cuddling you while you sleep if you want. He doesn’t try to sleep with you; because he can’t, and his “I’m sleeping” chant gets a lil annoying.

Barnaby is Wally’s go to babysitter, as you probably expected. Barnaby is basically your uncle. He’s the cool, fun uncle who loads you up on sugar before sending you back to your parents. And that is exactly what he does!

He is VERY cautious and protective. He baby proofs the hell out of everything.

He also does most things for you. You need to tie your shoes? He’s got it! Wanna refill your sippy cup or your bottle? That’s his job, sweetheart, don’t worry about it.

He will love any nickname you give him, “dad/daddy/dada”, “papa”, “baba”, etc.

He loves them all.

He canonically goes limp when you hug him but I’d like to think that he eventually gets the hang of it and becomes a really good cuddler. 😭

He has so much apple juice. And apples in general. Does not understand apple pie or anything with apple filling in it, though…where are the apples…where did they go?? 😥

His voice is super monotone and his face kinda is too, so he actually does super well with autistic littles. Cuz like. He gets it. Also I know Wally isn’t CANONICALLY autistic but. Erm. Yeah he is. In my mind he absolutely is.

He doesn’t do too well with tantrums. He’ll try his best to calm you down, but if that doesn’t work, he usually has to call Barnaby for help. He always feels so bad, though. He’s your caregiver, he’s supposed to know how to help…

All in all, 10/10 caregiver. Would recommend.

Sean as your best friend

a headcanon ⓘ sfw

featuring: Sean Diaz

ⓘ what are you talking about 

꙳⸌☆⸍꙳

I feel like Sean would be the type of person who would rather listen to you talk, instead of talking a whole lot about himself. However, he would talk to you about his family problems, like whenever he and Daniel are fighting you would be the first to know. You would talk a lot about music and movies, I feel like Sean would turn into such a nerd. There is a lot of teasing involved in the way he talks to you, lots of swearing and slang I guess. 

I don't think that he would be much into gossip. In my opinion, he is more focused on you and his other friends and not caring about other people.

He talks a lot about Daniel and will always ask you about your opinion on certain presents for him or topics he should discuss with his brother. "You think I am a bad big brother for not taking him on the trip as well?" 

Also teases you about the fact that Daniel is so in love with you and that one day he is going to propose to you. "He is such a player and you fall for it." 

"Sean he is nine." 

ⓘ how he would treat you / act around you 

꙳⸌☆⸍꙳

Let me tell you this boy is shy, but certainly not when he is around you. He is always cracking up super corny jokes and would make fun of you as well but in a playful demeanor. He is pretty caring though, always asking how you are if you have eaten anything yet. I mean even as your best friend this guy would worship the ground that you are standing on. 

Honestly, he is only attending work so that you guys can order a bunch of takeout, get high, and go to concerts and the movies. I also feel that he would be the type of guy friend to always pay for your meals and open doors for you because his dad taught him so. 

When I tell you that you are his muse I am not joking even a little bit. This guy is always drawing you in every situation. You are helping Daniel with his homework? he is drawing you. You are talking to him on FaceTime? Oh, he has a pencil in his hand and is secretly sketching your face. You are reading in the corner of his room? Yep, you're right he is drawing you again. You get the idea. When he wants to work on his perspective skills he would often ask you to get into a certainposition and stand still so he could practise his skills. 

"Sean, it's been like 30 minutes, are you done already?"

"Stand still." 

ⓘ how he acts when you argue / when he is angry at you 

꙳⸌☆⸍꙳

First of all, what did you do to piss this guy off? I feel like it would be pretty hard to get into an argument with Sean anyway. But if you ever found yourself in that kind of a scenario I think he would be kind of childish. 

Would most definitely tell Daniel that you are cheating on him and get him upset with you as well. Sean would still reply to your texts but playfully dry. 

"You done pouting yet?" 

"I was, now I am not." 

Would 100% tell Daniel to call you and ask if you want to come over to play with him. 

I feel like Sean is the type of person who would gift you something after you guys made it up. Like a plushie, a book, or a drawing. I also think that he would be the person to always say sorry first because he is so used to doing that when he fights with Daniel. 

"Listen I am sorry..."

"La la la I cant hear you." 

"I bought you something..."

ⓘ how he would comfort you if you’re sad 

꙳⸌☆⸍꙳

Okay so if you are ever sad around Sean be ready to get spoiled. Like this dude will cook for you (even though he really isn't the best cook), he will tell Daniel to draw you something to cheer you up, and will definitely watch your favorite movie or listen to your favorite songs. 

"You wanna go out for a walk and a smoke? bet that would cheer you up." 

Sean wouldn't specifically ask you what's wrong but he would always give you the feeling that you can talk to him about everything. Since he is also very used to the role of the protective big brother he would throw hands and come for the person who made you sad in the first place. 

Would always ask you if you needed some alone time and would lock his door so Daniel wouldn't rush in and ask you to play.

I feel like Sean would be the type of person who would talk to his dad about your problems so that he can give you the very best advice ever since he himself is not that good with words. 

authors note: this was so cute to write!! definitely plan on writing more of these if you guys like them :)

may i request a fic of scara being a domestic bf for reader?? like super the way of the househusband type of domestic :0 if thats ok w u??

househusband in training ★ [scaramouche x gn!reader] ⎯⎯ fluff, modern au, college au

a/n: HIHI this idea is soso cute mima and ty 4 requesting! i love myself some domestic bf scara.. ( ´ ω ` )

when your boyfriend of two years moved in with you in a small but comfy apartment, you surely hadn't taken him for the type to do everything around the house. scaramouche has always had the ability to get quickly tempered, but you didn't know that that would apply to chores as well.

after a month or two, you got used to his constant nagging that always fixated on the dishes in the sink and the state of the bedroom. the thing is, he never makes you do it. "tsk, there's a spoon in the sink, (name). you know how i want the sink to be empty at all times," he would say, all the while putting on his rubber gloves and apron.

you peek from the doorframe of the kitchen. "it's a single spoon, scara. plus, i'll do it if-" he stops you short with a raise of the hand. "no, no. that won't be necessary." and the conversation ends there, or so he thought. you muse, "hm, i've been thinking about something for awhile."

scaramouche doesn't look up from his work as he scrubs the spoon with a soapy sponge, "yeah?" as he reaches forward to open the faucet, you add, "you're kind of like my little househusband in training." you pause when you hear the clatter of the spoon. scaramouche slowly turns to face you, "what did you say."

you laugh, amused by his reaction. "i mean, you kind of got the part down." scaramouche takes off his gloves and apron to make his way to you in a few strides. he holds your face in one hand, squishing your pudgy cheeks with his lithe fingers. "if i'm to be the househusband, that means you have to play the role of my spouse, no?"

scaramouche also takes care of things like meals. unlike his mother, who could blow up the entire world if she even touched the buttons of the stove, he's fairly good at cooking. breakfast, lunch, dinner, you name it. he'll be calling you from the kitchen to come and eat and you'll be greeted with a table full of meals.

once in a while, he'll let you help him. he prefers it whenever you take a part in baking rather than cooking, since it's less dangerous, in a way. speaking of your well-being, scaramouche always checks up on you, possibly more than your own parents do.

whenever he feels as if you've been studying too long, he'll pry you away from your screen to spend time with him. "c'mon, i'm more fun than words on a screen." he'd say, cuddling with you on the couch in the living room. feeling overwhelmed? scaramouche is your go-to guy.

he'll turn off the lights, only leaving the television set as the two of you snuggle beneath the blankets. scaramouche comfortingly strokes your hair and whispers endearments, your head resting in his lap as he soothes all of your worries away.

and even though scaramouche manages most of the house chores, he somehow is able to balance his college life as well. he wears reading glasses whenever he studies but he finds that he focuses better when he does it with you. he'll pretend that he doesn't know an easy question and makes you help him out from that point.

every night is spent with him in your arms or you in his, words of affection exchanged and kisses shared before the sleepiness gets to you two. scaramouche can be mean sometimes, but he's big on being soft when it comes to you. it's almost like his lips are made for yours, considering the way they perfectly slot against your lips is heavenly.

in the morning, he'll be awakened by you peppering kisses all over his face and clinging onto him like a koala to a tree. that is, if you wake up before him. every other morning, you'll rise to the smell of freshly cooked food. though the point is, scaramouche is the ideal domestic boyfriend and maybe even a househusband... ♡

Twenty (Three!) Years of Humanistic!

Abandoned Pools' first album, Humanistic was released 23 years ago today, on September 25th, 2001! For anyone who doesn't know, Abandoned Pools is my all time favorite band! I found them through Clone High in September of 2020 and immediately connected with a LOT of their songs, and in that time, Humanistic became my all time favorite album! A spot that it still retains to this day hehe.

So when I found out that the following year, almost a year to the day from when I started listening to Abandoned Pools, was Humanistic's 20th anniversary, I knew I wanted to make something big for that occasion! I ended up making a drawing based on each song in the album! This is similar to what I did for Owl City's album Cinematic later on, which I posted last year.

This is also sort of a look at proto Let's Get Back! in a way! I made this when LGB! was still just a duo act with PB and Shep, since Rye and Pumpernickel didn't join the lineup until I was about halfway through the project, and the band wasn't officially named Let's Get Back! until February of 2022 lol. The cover image here is based on the actual album cover for Humanistic, and I edited later to say "Covers by Let's Get Back!" to make it consistent with the rest of my LGB! art :3

Each piece in the series is below the cut along with the song they're connected to and some explanation about each one. Again, these pieces are three years old at this point, so some of the art is a bit wonky looking and some of these piece I'd do differently if I were to do them today, but most of them still hold up pretty well I think! :D

1: The Remedy

I based this one on the line “save your breath, your soul is hollow” and wanted to do something simplistic but still interesting! According to my friend who also likes the song, this is “exactly how that song feels” lol. It was fun working with silhouettes here, which is something I've done here and there in the time since.

2: Mercy Kiss

I decided to not actually draw them kissing bc the song says “I don’t need your mercy kiss” haha. Wanted to capture sort of a defiant attitude for this one. Posing is a little off here, and I've tweaked some minor things abt their design but overall one that I'm still pretty happy with :]

3: Start Over

I was SUPER happy with the posing on this one, I love the sense of motion it has. Basically, I wanted to express being stuck in a cycle and just wanting to go back to the way things were, which was something I was REALLY feeling at the time, but is still sort of applicable today.

4: Monster

Another one I REALLY like, with this one, I wanted to show that I can be a force to be reckoned with when standing up for myself. Or at least that’s how the song makes me feel. It’s a good rampage song too. This is another case where I really like how the pose came out. As you can also see, this is the only piece without PB since I wasn't sure how to incorporate him into this idea, but I’m sure he’s still involved somehow lol. Also this is the best song called Monster, I do not take criticism at this time.

5: Blood

Blood always feels like a sort of gloomy, spiral-y type song, so that’s what I went for. The line “we watch it burn, and we never learn, this can’t be what you’re waiting for” was really the focus for this one. A neat vibe with this one overall I think that I'm pretty happy with.

6: Suburban Muse

Suburban Muse makes me think of like, a fake sitcom town where things look normal, but things aren’t as great as they seem if you look a little closer. It even says “cue the canned applause” at one point. Also, those sort of, weird reality dreamscape neighborhood liminal space images like this where you can see where it's coming from but they just feel, off y'know

7: Sunny Day

This one is kinda weird because Sunny Day is kinda weird (though in like the best possible way, I love it). I couldn’t quite come up with a solid idea for both my OCs here, so I based them on two separate lines: “my head is inside a cloud” for PB, and “get off the bathroom floor” for Shep. In hindsight, I don't think the two separate lines approach really worked here since it feels more disjointed and not really representative of the full song, but I still like it well enough.

8: L.V.B.D.

This one was hard to come up with something for. I’ve never been super crazy abt L.V.B.D. since it feels, Very Hetero™ and I’m not about that. But it’s still sounds great and I’m definitely super glad it’s part of the album. Went for drawing Shep and PB here as little stuffed dolls, which is related to the acronym in the song’s title (which stands for Little Virgin Baby Doll) and I couldn’t think of anything better aha. I should draw plushies more often though

9: Ruin Your Life

Important: Shep and PB are only upset with upset with each other for the sake of this drawing, as I refuse to let anything bad happen between them for real. Anyways, the expressions were really fun in this one, and oh boy does this song feel very relatable over the last year or so.

10: Never

This one is very similar to Ruin Your Life for me, where it’s a sort of comforting during a dark time kind of way. Just crossing the days off hoping that things will get better soon, that’s what I went for here. The calendar is listed as 10/12 since this is the 10th song out of the 12 on the album, and the image is a reference to a previous drawing I had done of PB and Shep together :3

11: Seed

Personally, Seed is my least favorite song from the album as a whole, for similar reasons to L.V.B.D. but in a, more gross kinda way that conflicts with my ace side. The song still sounds great musically for sure. Even tho I’m not super crazy abt the song, I actually really like how this drawing came out, in fact it might be my favorite out of the whole batch, ironically enough lol. The boys are looking down into a hole from the line “there’s no more grace to fall from, there’s nowhere left to go but down” and I'm really happy with how the perspective turned out!

12: Fluorescein

Finally, Fluorescein is my favorite song of the entire album, and my favorite song in general! It’s so aggressive and loud, I love it. I decided to draw PB confronting a giant Shep bc the song makes me feel like I can take on a huge adversary and win >:] Although I do like what I chose to do here, I kinda wish I had come up with something better to represent my all time favorite song lol

So in conclusion, like I said, Humanistic is my all time favorite album and it means so much to me. Really all of AP’s work really means a lot to me, but Humanistic in particular. I found the band through watching Clone High and I am all the better for it. So thank you to Abandoned Pools for making something that I’ve gotten so much out of and I absolutely cannot wait for the sixth album coming at the end of next year!! :D

So I hope you guys liked this little trip down memory lane with me, and if you're also an enjoyer of Abandoned Pools, please let me know what you think of these and what your favorite AP songs are! I'd love to know! And if you don't listen to Abandoned Pools, I highly recommend their music if you can't tell lol. If you enjoy early 2000s alt rock sort of stuff, there's a solid chance you'll enjoy Abandoned Pools :3

omg BABE congraaats! SO excited for u 👏 I absolutely adored Midnight Muse, so even though a small part of me wants to hoard and gatekeep our precious fic in this fandom, you deserve the success and recognition, and the world deserves good books! 💖

Remember us and remember where u came from when you blow up 🥹 luv uuuuu

now, some questions 4 u:

How was it to 'un-acotar-ize' the story, and find alternate names for everyone? Do you still picture the acotar characters in your mind in the new version? I'm curious what the rest of the changed names are apart from Quinn and Knox (which are awesome names btw), are the other changed names something you can share, or is that a secret? (it's fine if not, I'm just super curious 😁) Also, was 'Knox' a reference to one of Az's sons in your fic family tree?

Also, I notice it says "Book 1 of the Vulcan University series", are there plans for more? 👀

💙

Thank you so much!!! I know i wish we could gatekeep it here too but it was too good not to share with the world! The real ones will always know where midnight muse came from 💙💙

i could never forget any of you!! and you'll never get rid of me either 😈 hehehe. I love you too!! 🫶🏻

Honestly, it de-acotarizing it wasn't too bad. it was a little grating because i basically had to revise 120k 😭 and my version of revising that was literally retyping the entire thing because im a psycho and can't just fix up paragraphs haha. but the plot did get some work after all of the feedback i received and i thinks its even better than it was!! There's def still some subtle acotar hints tbh (maybe to the point where i'm worried it might be a lil obvious but whatevs) but gotta let em know my roots lol

hmmm finding names was kind of a mix of easy and hard for me. i've always wanted to use the name knox because i really like it as we all know so i went with him bcs i love it. it's slightly a reference to the son i made for him, but if you've read the knox x reader fic there's something that i do want to use his (my?) canon (or is it fanon? no idea) character with a variation of the name (so excited about). but that's for when i attempt writing a fantasy so idk when that will happen, there's much more thought that has to go into that than my lil romance 💙 but yeah we love knoxie in any form 💙

sometimes i do picture the characters when im writing...it's surprisingly mostly cass i think about or slip up when i'm talking about it irl 😂 but they mostly have their own personalities now and i adore them all so much!

I would LOVE to share the other character names!! So we have Quinn (absolutely love this name tbh) and Knox obviously 💙💙💙 Then we have Ace (which would be Rhysand's character in the fanfic), Rory - Quinn's best friend and roommate. Then we have Slate (😂 always cracks me up) for Cassian's character, and Reid for Luciens character. Mandy was Mor but only makes a brief appearance! Those are pretty much the main characters for the series 💙

There are plans for more...hehehe...i might be well into writing the second one as we speak, but the goal is to have four books in this series!

thank you for the questions these were so exciting and fun to talk about 🥰💙

Teen (for language) | Chaos | Plotless | Actor AU

“I get here at half eight because of Satoru,” Megumi told the camera. He had glittery pink flamingo sunglasses on, which he seemed to think was perfectly normal; in the background, Gojo was wandering about, wearing a matching (purple) pair of sunglasses, playing ‘Dancing Queen’ from his phone and waving a mini disco ball around. “He needs the extra time to get in the zone.”

“Too right I do!” Gojo agreed loudly.

“Is this how you get in the zone?” the interviewer asked.

“I do my best acting when wearing glitter,” Gojo informed her. “Obviously.”

“I think most of us usually arrive on time,” Yuji nodded, standing on the steps outside a large building. Above his head, the words MAPPA STUDIOS could be seen in foot-high lettering. “I got here … uh … hold on, I’ll ask Megumi.”

He turned towards the building. “HEY!! MEGUMI!!”

“WHAT?” a voice yelled back, presumably from the foyer.

“WHAT TIME DID WE GET HERE THIS MORNING?”

“8.30, WHY?”

“I’M DOING AN INTERVIEW!” Yuji turned back to the camera. “He says 8.30.”

“So you arrived together?” the interviewer asked.

“Oh, yeah, his dad gives me a lift sometimes.” Yuji leant in closer, and cupped his hands over his mouth. “It was the most terrifying experience of my life,” he whispered.

“I OFFERED YOU A RIDE, NOT A SAFE RIDE!” Megumi shouted. He was just visible, signing something at the front desk.

“Jeez, how did he hear that?!” Yuji looked shaken. “I think he gets his super-senses from Mr. Gojo. You can’t do anything around those two, they always know.”

“SHOWTIME!” Megumi called. He poked his head out of the door. “Come on, Yuji, we’ll be late.”

“Oh! My bad. See you next time!” Yuji saluted the camera. Megumi gave it a small wave, before dragging Itadori off with a mumble of “What do you mean, super-senses???”

-

-

-

“Personally, I’m always on time. Unless I’m not,” Gojo mused, sipping his iced coffee. “Since I adopted Megumi, I’ve never been late for anything because he always drags me out the house. However-“ (this was punctuated by violent pointing) “-when I’m going somewhere by myself, say, a meeting with a superior, I’m always late. I don’t do it on purpose. I like to think it’s the universe reminding me it’s on my side and it doesn’t believe in capitalism.” He looked down at his drink. “I need to stop using straws, they’ll give me awful mouth wrinkles when I’m older. Oh, and save the turtles. Obviously.”

-

-

-

“I like to be on time, because then I can disapprove of people who aren’t,” Nobara explained. She turned to allow the wardrobe assistant to adjust her jacket, but kept talking as she went. The camera did its best to follow her face. “Basically, Megumi once made fun of me for being late, and I never want that to happen again.”

“Does he make fun of you a lot?”

“No, not at all. He knows I’d kick him, or get Maki to.” She grinned evilly. “Maki has these awesome boots with spikes on, and they absolutely terrify the boys, especially Inumaki and Yuta. Or maybe that’s because she uses them most on Inumaki and Yuta. Mostly Inumaki, he’s so sassy all the time – and always late…”

-

-

-

“She said that? I take that as a compliment,” Toge laughed. “She doesn’t even call me by my first name, that’s how annoying she thinks I am.  I do my best, of course, but it��s nice to see my efforts being recognised.”

“Are you usually late on purpose, then? Does Nobara use that against you?”

“How did you know I’m usually late? It’s not on purpose though, I’m just a procrastinator. As for Nobara, what she doesn’t know is that I got most of my sass from Megumi. He doesn’t always show it, but he’s an irritating little shit when he’s comfortable. It just rubbed off on me, and now I’m better at it than him.”

“Did you know Megumi before the show? Did you spend a lot of time with him?”

“We’re legally second cousins or something, I think. I’m Satoru’s very very extended family, anyway, and so I was at his house a lot while my parents did … whatever my parents do … and that’s how I got into acting, since both Satoru and Megumi were in the industry. Sometimes Jujutsu Kaisen feels like a family project, what with Satoru, Megumi, me, Maki… Yeah, we adopted her as an honorary member, didn’t you know?”

-

-

-

“I did not ask to be an honorary member, but I’m not mad about it,” Maki smiled. “It’s nice that there’s so many relations on the show, although it does make us look like a nepotism breeding ground. Luckily, all you have to do is look at their interactions and you’ll know they all made it on their own. Mr. Gojo might have offered Megumi a leg up, but Megumi definitely wouldn’t have taken it – and Toge’s, like. Annoying.”

“I thought you liked being part of the family? Do you not like Toge?”

“Oh, I do. You’ve never found your siblings annoying? I think he’s annoying, because he’s always late and every second sentence is sarcastic. Oh, and he pulls the ‘Opposite Day’ thing on you and makes you look insane. ‘Do you like fish fingers in custard?’ ‘No’ ‘It’s opposite day!!’ or whatever.”

“So, you’re never late?”

“I’m always early! Sometimes I even get here before Mr. Gojo, and he’s got Megumi to chivvy him along, poor soul. It must be like living with a grumpy alarm clock.”

-

-

-

“I’m always late, it’s always on purpose, and I am completely unbothered,” Shoko shrugged. “I think the production team have caught on. They tell me my events are scheduled half an hour before they actually are, so when I rock up fifteen minutes late, I’m actually fifteen minutes early.”

-

-

-

“Don’t tell Shoko this, but the director always tells her the events are an hour early,” Geto confided in a low voice. “She thinks it’s only half an hour, so she’s being extra late on purpose, and they keep pretending they’re in a rush when they’re actually on time. It’s genius. Anyway,” he added in a louder voice, “I’m here on-time-ish. Here before I need to be, but after everyone else, who are always arriving at half eight for some reason?”

-

-

-

“I clock in at 9am and not a minute sooner,” Nanami said emphatically. “I don’t need to be here before then and I have other things to do during that time.”

“What do you do during that time?”

“Sleep, mainly. Anything but work.”

“So you only work, what? 9-5? Are you strict about leaving, too?”

“I like to leave early because then Satoru won’t rope me into something weird. Thank god for Megumi, that kid’s a lifesaver, I don’t know how many times he’s stopped The Idiot from dragging me to a bar or something…”

-

-

-

“I get here at half eight because of Satoru,” Megumi told the camera. He had glittery pink flamingo sunglasses on, which he seemed to think was perfectly normal; in the background, Gojo was wandering about, wearing a matching (purple) pair of sunglasses, playing ‘Dancing Queen’ from his phone and waving a mini disco ball around. “He needs the extra time to get in the zone.”

“Too right I do!” Gojo agreed loudly.

“Is this how you get in the zone?” the interviewer asked.

“I do my best acting when wearing glitter,” Gojo informed her. “Obviously.”

“Oh, obviously,” she agreed, just as someone knocked sharply on the door.

“That’s our cue,” Megumi announced. “Come on, Beyonce,” he added, shedding his sunglasses and reaching up to do the same to Gojo, before dragging him away.

The camera just managed to catch Gojo’s wail of ‘It was ABBA!! Don't call me Beyonce!!!” before everything faded to silent black.

Cirque du Soleil: Michael Jackson One review

OH BOY ARE WE GETTING COMPLEX.

I'll say up front that I was thrilled by the experience of watching MJ One. I sound like I'm hedging here because I am. With Ka (which was tragically dark the week I visited Vegas 😭), O, and Mystere always pulling at my heels and Love gone now, it was super unlikely I made the time to see this show at all. But I was convinced (THANK YOU @libralelia!!) and man am I grateful that I was. This show is a spectacle. I knew it would be going in, but I had no idea of the extent of it until I was in the thick of it.

Similar to Drawn To Life, I have some broader questions about whether a show like this can stay relevant (or even inoffensive) as its audience ages, so I'll get into that at the end. I'll warn you up front that my prediction is no. But before that, general show notes beneath the cut!

Theatre: Not as big as I imagined! I was surprised to learn its capacity is actually smaller than Mystere's - it's set up with a traditional front-on view of the stage and rather reminded me of Zarkana. Never really my fave setup for a resident show, but I suppose with the heavy projection use flat, predictable surfaces were easier to work with. Speakers were built right into the seats like at Ka and there were ramps along the sides that artists climb, hide behind, etc. The ramps' most exciting and dynamic moment was at the very beginning when the Muse burst out like a fucking solar flare and melted everyone's faces off with a guitar solo. What a way to start.

General tech thoughts: Projections! Holograms! Drones! Artists using the walls as a dance floor! Singers suspended overhead! Like a thousand separate set pieces! This show is at the top of its goddamn game. The backstage must be very tall because I have no idea how they'd store all this stuff otherwise. The use of light in this show is remarkable. And I don't mean stage lighting (though that is also excellent) - the amount of LEDs in this show is insane. Every part of this show glitters or glows to tremendous effect.

Plot: Four kids/teens/people of indeterminate age (though we had three in our performance) wander into Neverland (😬), stumble onto four iconic MJ items (a glove, shoes, sunglasses, and a hat, one for each kid), are warned not to touch them, and you'll never believe what they do. The general idea is that the four of them discover confidence and power through the music and spirit of Michael Jackson, which is corny but effective in its sincerity. Along the way they are stymied by Mephisto, which can only be described as an Evil Machine with malevolent yet incomprehensible intent. I guess he wants to keep this power locked away for himself. What is he? How did he get here? Why does he care? What are his goals? Don't worry about it, it does not matter.

Characters:

Kids - Another in the trend of Cirque's color-coded heroic groups. We were missing the kid who was paired with the glove, which is a shame because the manipulation act he's responsible for sounded deeply cool. His absence created a bit of confusion on what looked like might have been a romantic subplot and some imbalance in some staging decisions, but overall the characters were so secondary to the music that it wasn't too great a loss. They're throughline for a plot that I'm not convinced we needed, but they're bubbly and fun and unobstrusive so no biggie.

Tabloid Junkies - Bizarre and truthfully discomfiting. The costumes would have been cooler if I didn't feel like thematically they were ripping off the scrolling LED boards on their chests and beating me over the head with their meaning. "LIES. GOSSIP. RUMORS." I get it. I have no doubt these perils of fame were torturous to Michael in life. But the fact is some allegations were true, and the ones that were true were horrific. I think these characters' presence in this show is deeply out of place and borderline offensive. More on them below.

Mephisto - He's confusing but deeply cool tbh. Technologically he is incredible - a huge mass of screens and speakers and wires - and his presence is undeniably menacing. At first it seems like he's protecting the hat, gloves, etc. and thus the spirit of MJ, but that turns out not to be the case, then it seems like he was defeated like halfway through the show, but that turns out not to be the case, etc. Ordinarily this is exactly the sort of thing that irritates me, but tbh I didn't really care. Everything was just too big and fun to worry about plot intent, which is a testament to how effective the main components of the show are.

The Muse - Not to be a lesbian but oh my fucking god. oh my god. jesus fucking christ. I don't think there was a moment she was onstage that I was not staring at her. She was a force. of. nature. I feel like whenever I talk about Cirque stage presence I am way too often talking about men. THIS is the shit I want to see more of. More roles like this!!! More women like this!!! I can't imagine there was a woman in the audience that didn't want to be with her or be her. I need to fill my queue with one million pictures of her holy shit.

Ngame - The Mother Moon singer. She spent most of her time suspended inside a crescent moon suspended from the stage, and she was lovely. Occasionally I thought her performance was outshone by other vocals and I wished she'd been given more time to shine as an individual rather than a prop or background singer. This is an MJ show, we know the music is his. Let's hear her version more often, y'know?

Michael - Sigh. I dunno. I know it's his show, I know what we're here for. I just think it's misguided. Of course he's an icon, but there's a difference between celebrating an icon and outright hero worship. Some parts were very cool and effective, like the hologram that dances with the kids at the end. It was genuinely magical. But this entire show, especially the explicit inclusion of Michael's spirit as a character and plot driver, is tapping into a memory of a man that we know is pure fantasy. At several points he was shown as a child, and all I could think about was how horribly abused he was during that time. Like, why are we looking at him beaming and smiling? I would just as soon not have looked at him at all. More in the analysis section on this, too.

Act notes:

Spanish web - This guy used to do straps in Luzia! Good to see a familiar face. Cool act with a high skill level, but looked too simplistic given what we've seen the stage is capable of even at this early point in the show.

Shadowplay - Nice to see this in another show! Execution here strongly reminded me of Pilobolus. More traditional shows probably couldn't get away with a transition to this long of a shadowplay segment but it was really effective here.

Pole dancing - God DAMN. This act was NOT fucking around. This costume was a perfect example of the brilliance of this show's character and costume design. I don't think I could even tell you what she did in this act, but I could tell you every detail of what she looked like doing it. It was so energetic, fluid, powerful, and sexy. Super effective in all it attempts to do.

Trampoline - Loved it. Finally a new take on trampo wall!! When they lowered the matching trampoline from the ceiling, they make you wait before they do exactly what you hope they will: ping pong a dude between both floor and ceiling over and over. It was a delight.

Dance notes (dance was constant and always phenomenal, so I'm just gonna mention the ones that stood out for one reason or another):

The Way You Make Me Feel - LOVE. LOVE. One of my favorite moments of the entire show. The set (a mechanic shop) was dynamic and heavily textured, they raised and lowered pieces, the choreography was tight as fuck, it had that "pick your favorite" element of similar-but-different looking characters that's always a good time. It really had it all. This number knew exactly what it was - fun, light, and sexy. Perfect execution.

Thriller - Okay hot take but I don't particularly care for this song, and thus didn't feel much of anything about this dance beyond that it was fun. The entire stage is utilized (love), it feels like the entire cast is involved (love), and there's aisle interaction with the audience (love), but it's clear this moment was supposed to be a crescendo in the "story" and that didn't connect for me. Upon reading it seems this was supposed to be Mephisto's final attack or something, so that explains the evil angle and build-up. It's too bad the song practically the whole audience waits for is undercut a little bit by its references to a plot that stopped being comprehensible like sixty minutes prior.

Man in the Mirror - The hologram had me thinking all sorts of things! On the one hand he honest to god looked real. Like that's Michael Jackson, he's real and he's dancing right in front of me. I have no idea how they made this happen. On the other hand we just spent an entire show treating him like this larger than life figure, and now we see him next to dancers and suddenly remember he was less than six feet tall. This juxtaposition was smoothed over by a very cool effect where he burst into little lights and danced with the kids to show how his spirit lived on. It did look very magical, but as with a lot of things in this show, there was an undercurrent of ://// do we really want to be sending this message in this particular way? Regardless it was an effective way to button up the show.

Song notes (same here - constant music, all of it good, so just the standouts not mentioned in other forms above):

They Don't Care About Us - This was the song that made me go wait, this show is saying something. I don't know a lot about Michael Jackson's activism beyond world hunger, but this was eye-opening. It did an intensely visceral job of yanking the audience's attention, holding it to the screen, and screaming "This is still happening! This is still relevant!" And it was updated!! We're going from images of the Civil Rights Movement to the KKK to the AIDS crisis to world hunger and then they hit us with some pandemic shit! Some Black Lives Matter! I loved it!! This was one of my favorite moments of the entire show. Very intense and serious without disrupting the flow or tone of the rest of the show. If anything it added depth and nuance. I was curious how conservative audience members tended to react to this part now that politics are so dreadfully divergent nowadays. I personally wanted to stand up and applaud Cirque for going there. Fuck yes. More of this.

Black or White - What a fun finale :))) Lighthearted, a touchstone for the kids' journey, but also a little bit of a reminder to the audience of the message of equality Michael Jackson stood for, and an encouragement to carry that message forward.

Analysis:

Get ready for a tone shift.

Okay so obviously I really liked this show. But every part I didn't care for, I likely didn't care for because it was explicitly ignoring truths about Michael Jackson that absolutely no one can refute, deny, or defend. He is an extremely public, tragic example of the cycle of abuse and its complexity. This show ignores all of it. This show would ignore every allegation, every court case, every instance of his own childhood abuse because the music is fun.

But this show can't have it both ways. You can't feature so much footage of him as one of the Jackson Five, beaming bright as the sun, and not accidentally remind the audience that he was abused during that time. You can't stop the audience from thinking that experience is likely one of a million others that contributed to what he later went onto inflict on others. You can't have a segment like They Don't Care About Us yet expect us as an audience set aside the truth of the sexual abuse he committed. If we do, the audience becomes the "they." The audience is the "they" that doesn't care about an "us" that would never set foot in that theater - actual, living people whose lives were forever damaged and whose abuser died before they could see any amount of justice. You can't feature projections of Neverland - let alone include the spirit of Michael Jackson welcoming children in and encouraging them to take his things - without drawing a direct line between the show and his actual, real life actions.

How's this for a timeline:

2005: Michael Jackson is acquitted.

2011-2014: Cirque's Michael Jackson: The Immortal World Tour show runs. In this time it visits nearly 200 cities worldwide.

2013: Michael Jackson ONE premieres

2013-2014: Wade Robson and James Safechuck file suits against the Jackson estate and his companies

That now, ten years after that suit was filed, Cirque du Soleil parades around characters called Tabloid Junkies wearing bold LED signs screaming LIES, RUMOR, GOSSIP is truthfully reprehensible. The longer I've sat with this, the more it has bothered me, and in writing this I'm literally returning to the top of this post to delete an otherwise bubbly paragraph about my Vegas trip overall because it just doesn't sit right with me. This show is fun. This show is innovative. This show should not exist.

But it does. And it will continue to do so as long as it makes money, which does not seem like a challenge for it. In a world where this show must go on, it is better off existing as a celebration of the music, not the man. Whether that's possible given how intrinsically linked the two are, I don't know.

So what's next? The show's audience ages, for better or worse. Those that grew up caring about Michael Jackson, listening to or enjoying him live, will eventually no longer be making trips to Vegas. The middle generation - mine - who knew who he was but had plenty of other stars to adore, knows more than enough to discourage them from paying to attend. The generation behind that either doesn't care about who he is, or knows and is sorry not to have the opportunity to cancel him themselves. Or maybe they will know and they won't care. I can't say. I've seen Gen Z make some pretty wild excuses in the name of "just fun."

This review has suddenly gone harsh, but overall my feelings are as complex as the show's existence itself. It's a fun show. I had fun. But if you look at it too closely the experience sours and I suppose that's where I'm landing on this. If anyone has not yet seen HBO's Leaving Neverland and is wondering how I could possibly get so dark about a circus show, I strongly encourage you to watch it. This show is a blast. I smiled throughout. I was blown away. I'm glad I didn't give his estate a dime to see it.

[voltronisanobsession]

Can we get some Rachel Elizabeth Dare x male reader headcanons?

Rachel Elizabeth Dare x Reader General Headcanons

OH. MY GOSH. A RACHEL REQUEST IN MY INBOOOXX???? IM SO HAPPY IM SO EXCITED TO WRITE FOR HERRR HEHEEE

Also I usually don’t mention genders that much in my writings, so I hope this was alright for you!!! Not proofread

OKOK

You guys most likely grow your friendship and bond over art!

Reader probably meets her at like some community service event they were forced to go to and just instantly click

You fully believe you’re gonna be bored out of your mind until you meet Rachel. She’s energetic and spontaneous, that energy rubbing off on you

It’s safe to say you both had a lot of fun painting the walls of the community center

The way she focuses her attention to the smallest of details while she paints has you lowkey captivated with the girl

And Rachel grows interested in you as you paint something so unique, she wouldn’t have even thought of creating what you do

You both keep contact and Rachel LOVES hanging out with you!

Reader is most likely just an average teen, spending the day going to school and hanging around New York

You’re like a fresh breath of air for her, allowing her to have a temporary get away from her lavish, suffocating home

You don’t judge or see her differently when she tells you of her extravagant life. You don’t judge her for what others may see as small problems. You listen to her problems, sometimes listening quietly or even giving the red haired girl some advice!

And because of this, Rachel grows closer to you, feeing that you just get her💔

AND UGH

Like you understand talking about personal problems can be HARD, so you just see her as a super strong person for being able to open up to you

No one can break y’all up, you’re each others ride or dies

Honestly I can see this relationship being either platonic or romantic

Both essentially having the same vibes, a romantic relationship would include the more intimate side of being a couple, like kisses and all that fun stuff

But let’s take the romantic route teehee

There are NO walls between y’all

you can read each other like open books

Rachel loves taking you to small, hidden places she finds while out in the city and just being around you

She calls you her muse (LITERALLY SCREAMING)

She’s lowkey made several portraits of you, most of which you haven’t seen because she’s embarrassed 😭😭😭

You guys spend some days just sitting with each other in silence, painting and creating new art that you often give away to anyone who wants it

You most likely know about her ability to see things that most normal people can’t see

There’s times where she’s able to talk you through seeing past the mist, allowing you to see some of the amazing things she sees (though a lot of the times you guys hide away when you see a monster💀)

And Rachel can sense you’re different from everyone else too, with your hyper active self always seeming to know when something is off, along with your crazy agility and strength

You like holding and playing with her hands! there always seems to be a small smudge of paint on her skin and under her nails, the girl unable to wash it away fully

She personally likes playing your hair!

I like to think that Rachel always has hair ties on her wrists so you already know this girl is styling your hair in the most weirdest hairdos LMAO

One time she tied your hair up to make it look like you had a spike Mohawk

Everything is good and fun between y’all tbh! You’ve met her father (this man kinda likes you, kinda doesn’t just because you’re with his daughter)

She likes hanging out and crashing at your home though

Rachel’s strong personality is something your parents/guardians LOVE

They love having her over, Rachel always manages to make the small, quiet apartment loud with laughter!

You like counting the freckles on her cheeks when night falls, her bright eyes staring into yours with admiration (OH MY GOSH I CANT RN😭😭)

Everything is almost perfect tbh

Until everything that happened in battle of the labyrinth and last Olympian, well, happens😭💀

Rachel has a new responsibility as the new carrier of the oracle, which unfortunately means that being a couple is off the table

She has a whole new life as the oracle and you being a new discovered demigod changes a lot of things

You both still care and love each other though

You just,, can’t be together in a romantic sense

But you can’t help but feel happiness for Rachel because she’s finally doing what she was meant to do! She’s always felt different and out of place, so seeing her take this important role fills you with joy!

This girl is actually so lucky to have you by her side, whether it be as her best friend or her boyfriend

You’re just so understanding and supportive, your relationship stays strong even with her role as the oracle and her attending Clarion Ladies Academy

You’re her best friend, her muse

And she’s you’re best friend, your first love

Nothing can break the bond you’ve formed together, through thick and thin, through hardships and heartbreaks, it’s always been you and Rachel against the world

[queenofbaws]

as someone who is SO GOOD at forgetting i was tagged in stuff immediately after being tagged in stuff, i thought i'd go ahead and fill this puppy out while it was fresh in my mind ;)c hehehe thanks for the tag @phenanthreneblue!!!!!!!!

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

156 😎 and hopefully no sign of slowing, lol. i've been writing and posting fic since aboooooout 2007 though, so. do with that as you will.

2. What's your total AO3 word count?

it's. um. it's. uh. a lot. ahem. it's a lot.

(1,923,174)

3. What fandoms do you write for?

currrrrrrrrently the supermassive universe and dragon age, but i'm slowly adding the remedyverse in there, and silent hill pops up from time to time!!! and in ye olden days, i wrote a LOT for kingdom hearts. i've been CONSIDERING adding horizon to the list too, but...only time will tell, hehehe ;P

4. Top five fics by kudos

the (almost)s; who ya gonna call? not these creeps.; my fav part of summer camp [not clickbait!]; lipstick stains & coffee cups; yes, no, maybe so: circle one and let me know!

5. Do you respond to comments?

i do! i figure if you took the time to read AND let me know how you felt about my work, then by golly, i'm gonna tell you how much YOU made me smile :)c i've met some pretty cool people thanks to the comment section, hehe

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

aw man, probably alone time, right? probably alone time. i'm sure there was some extremely angsty stuff in my kingdom hearts days, but lord help me i am old and i have forgotten a lot of that

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

well, the durellion affair ends with everyone getting to eat as much cheese as they want, so i think that fits the bill!!! 🧀

8. Do you get hate on fics?

nah. i've been crazy lucky that, aside from the occasional (and likely unintentional) insensitive comment, people have always been super kind with my stuff <3 the deviantart days were a slightly different story, but why relive THAT time period, i ask you?????

9. Do you write smut?

nope. i'm not, like, opposed, i just don't think it would be good, and i've yet to write something where i felt it would add anything, so. nah. there are so many other things i can do to earn that m rating ;)

10. Craziest crossover?

for sure did an organization xiii/sweeney todd crossover once, in the long-long ago asldkjflsakdjf recently, though, i guess i'd have to say reading & other fun rituals was a VERY self-indulgent way for me to smash the remedyverse and supermassive universes together!!!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

eh, every time one of those "this site is scraping people's fics!" posts goes around, i end up finding my stuff, but in terms of bumping into an individual nabbing something i've written? not that i'm aware of! (i like to believe anyone reading would recognize the overabundance of adjectives and come tell me, ha!!!)

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

i've had people ask, but i've never seen a finished product, so probably not! i tend to write pretty long stuff, though, and i wouldn't wish that kind of work on anyone alsdkjflaskdjfksljfd

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

i have! none that are posted currently, but i've for sure co-written in the past. i'm also slowly but surely co-writing a fun little thing over here with my buds where our (totally cool and DEFINITELY not overpowered) self-inserts have fun being npcs in the federal bureau of control, so...keep your eyes peeled for that, heheheheh

14. All time favourite ship?

right now? varric tethras and f!hawke 🥺 at this point in time, i only have eyes for them

15. What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

sigh. soft reset 😔 it's a big ol' silent hill 2 timeloop fic that i started back in 2015 i think, and as much as i WANT to finish it...i haven't felt the silent hill muse strike in a hot minute. maybe once the remake comes out.

16. What are your writing strengths?

oh, i like to flatter myself that i'm pretty solid when it comes to character voices/interactions 😉 it's why i do so many character studies, honestly - i just *clenches fist* love studying characters!!! i also think my dialogue's fun

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

how much time do you HAVE??? hehehe i feel like i flounder when it comes to straight up-and-down fluffy/shippy stuff, like if the focus of a story is, for example, some sort of romantic gesture, i'm fairly lost. i'm also HORRENDOUS when it comes to keeping things concise, and god help me, every time i have to delete a passage and kill my darlings, i am miserable, so i tend to just...not do that

also? just putting it out there because i do consider it a weakness in regards to writing: sometimes my self-esteem with posting stuff is just. MISERABLE. so i have a tendency to get anxious before, during, and after hitting the post button, just really wallowing in those good, good I'M A FRAUD feelings, lmfao. i'm working on it, though!!! i love writing so much, sometimes the irrational part of my brain just worries i'm not Doing It Right, hahahaha

18. Thoughts on dialogue in another language?

no one's done it better than the thing (1982) and no one ever will

19. First fandom you wrote in?

proooooobably kingdom hearts??? don't quote me on that, though, it very much could've been x-men: evolution asdlkfjsalkjf (those just never saw the light of day)

20. Favorite fic you've written?

c'moooooon. the (almost)s :)

i'm gonna go ahead and tag...hmm... @love-fireflysong @jadedsunshine @unicornaffair @big-ass-magnet @mrs-theirin @theartofdreaming1 @icequeen-07 @chris-hartley and anyone - yes, i mean ANYONE - who wants to talk about their stuff ;) especially YOU!!!

[heroesoath]

SINDAY HEADCANON ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

in alphabetical order under the cut because i'm not a heathen.

ALEX

Alex takes orders really well, tell him what you want and he will comply with a little smile or smirk and he'll get to work! And I need it to be known that there is a REASON Lorna and Madelyne keep letting him back in and it's 100% because he's good at using his mouth, and his jaw almost always has some stubble so it's great for sensations and stimulation.

Alex is hot, I mean that literally, his powers makes energy and plasma store inside his body so he runs hot. If it's winter? He adds an extra layer of comfort during sex since he's just a blonde weighted blanket.

Likes being pegged, look at his Goblin Prince era.

When it comes to men he's a versatile king, he can be a submissive bottom or a eager top, best of both worlds - Hannah Montana.

When he was younger he did have issues of using his powers during intimate moments but it was ONLY when he was solo. He's far too terrified of his own abilities and how dangerous they are to ever accidentally use them in bed now. He keeps that control no matter what. ( Eyes might glow blue though )

*PULL HIS HAIR* He will moan and it's a delightful sound.

He likes fucking in the X-Jet lol ( it's leftovers from Alex and Lorna's time in space where their most favorite pastime was banging because there wasn't anything else to do idhfjks did )

Weird asf but he enjoys when people tear clothes from him, especially his uniform.

CLINT

Alex might be good at taking orders, but Clint is the ORAL KING. Bobbi makes numerous remarks about how long Clint can hold his breath, that man eats pussy / sucks dick like a ROCKSTAR.

Clint grew up in the circus and because of that he's very bendy, he can do lots of different positions, like go crazy babes.

Not sinful, but he's strangely good at after-care, he'll make coffee/tea, order pizza, clean up. A mess in real life does not translate to post sex, man has a reputation.

Because he is deaf, he prefers positions where he can see his partner's face. He wants to see them enjoying themselves since he can't hear them. On the other end, Clint is loud as he has no control of his volume so feel free to gag him!

Clint has very strong fingers from his archery so do with that info what you wish.

Enjoys being tied up.

DANI

Reminder that my Dani is a lesbian.

She's a dominant top, reading everything about her even from the early days of New Mutants, this woman will not take orders from anyone. She takes charge, she knows what's she's capable of and that's the tea.

She will unironically call someone good girl in bed and I hope this awakens something in all the sapphics out there.

She can and will make sex toys with her powers. You think those psionic arrows were all she can make?? Nah.

Because of her powers she can also make it seem like they are at any location. Wanna bang on the beach but can't fly there? No problem. Five class Paris suite?? Just relax and let Dani work her mirages.

Despite her top energy, Dani is a supreme cuddler, she enjoys showing affection and that translates into sex. Lots of kissing, lots of desperate grabbing, lots of face caressing.

JAMIE

Jamie has more control of his powers now, but he does sometimes lose control, so if the sex is intense don't be surprised if another Jamie pops out fugdvhfjd So if your muse is into a sudden threesome with two Jamies then you're golden.

He really is just a walking orgy so if you're super freaky just ask and he'll pop out a few duplicates and they can all have fun.

From his detective era, he does love sex on a desk. He "Thinks it's so NOIR."

JEAN

Already alluded to this today, but sex in the sky is so real. She can keep you both afloat with very little effort ( though if she gets with someone who flies she'd love to give some control up )

Jean's eyes glow pink during sex. She has enough control that she doesn't fling things around, but the room may shake a bit.

Her favorite lingerie is black, a call back to her Black Queen moment. She also wears a lot of backless dresses.

KISS HER NECK, MAKE HER FEEL DESIRED. She'll never admit this, but Scott cheating on her has left a scar. Jean wants to feel loved and desired, that she's enough.

She can be dominant or submissive, a versatile queen.

Because Jean is a cosmic entity at times, she loves powerful lovers, if they can be like two stars colliding into a big bang she'd be ultra satisfied.

She likes riding, yee haw.

Jean can cook breakfast and bake a bit, but she's not a great cook, so expect her to offer to go out for food after. A little date after a bang is just as valid as cooking in the kitchen! She's also just fine with coffee, cuddling and leftovers.

Woman is loud. Like she'll shout a name so loud the cosmos will hear because she's fire and life incarnate.

Random, but in my verse where Jean is still the White Phoenix of the Crown, the nexus of life, death and rebirth itself, I once read a fic where she brought someone into the White Hot Room just so she could bang because she wanted to feel human again and . . . idk that's a plot right there.

JOHN

MAGIC IN BED. John will do some absolute unhinged shit in bed via spells, sometimes even on accident.

Submissive. This man is not dominant in the slightest, he will if he finds like a submissive demon, he might TRY, but more often than not he's a pillow princess who curses and is loud.

He does love a power bottom though, ride him!

Probably uses such utter insane names in bed, he's NASTY, A FREAK, ROLL HIM INTO A BALL AND SLAP HIM AGAINST A WALL LIKE ONE OF THOSE STICKY HAND TOYS.

Sex for spells? Hot. Draw incantations on his chest and fuck him like it's a ritual.

JULIAN

Unlike Jean, Julian has less control over his powers so he absolutely lifts and throws objects with his mind if he's really into what's happening. His eyes glow green, the room is a lava lamp.

Because of his lack of hands, he uses his telekinesis for grabbing, psychic massages, and those psychic massages happen anywhere. Ever been fingers by someone's mind? He'll do it. Telekinesis sex is INTERESTING.

Julian loves chests, he's a boob man, whether it be women's or men's.

He has daddy/mommy issues, everyone who has followed me on his solo blog knows this. He's into it I fear.

Call him good boy to make his toes curl. He likes praise in general.

He might pretend to be someone casual, but in reality Julian might be one of my muses who gets attached the hardest? It makes it so his heart is easier broken, but he loves feeling a connection, he loves feeling loved and wanted on an intimate level.

Still enjoys casual sex, but the above is for those he's feeling HARD.

When he's with a man he's such a bottom. Fuck him and put him in his place lmao

KISS HIS STUMPS!! When he doesn't use the prosthetics after becoming comfortable with you, if you kiss where his hands used to be he's going to melt and the sex will be even better, I promise.

Women should always it on his face. ( And men lowkey ), but he loves performing oral.

If you're anti mutant you're not getting any. He's the most radical of my muses, humans more often annoy him than anything.

MARC

The three men all fuck differently, I'll need to do some #soulsearching to really find the differences, but I bet Marc fucks like the world is ending and his dog tags swing from around his neck.

Steven is the romantic one, candlelit tub time, roses and shit. He's a rich man with a desire for passion.

Jake is more of a mystery but he might just be a mixture of how Marc and Steven fuck, he's more of a casual / friends with benefits kind of guy though. Comes with his job as a cab driver.

Marc 100% fucks in the suit.

Do not call them by the wrong name. You will know who you're with based on their personalities, but it's an instant turn off if you get it wrong.

Marc is a daddy, I said what I said.

All of them eat women and men out like it's a meal and they are a starved victorian child F*UYDGHFUIO

PIOTR

He big, he will make that bed SLAM if he gets into it.

Despite the above, he is very careful. Piotr is a gentle man and will only get more rough with permission, but if someone wants it that way? He'll oblige.

He loves painting people when they are naked. It's not sexual at first, but if someone gets turned on by his skills and his gaze and his working artist hands then SO BE IT.

He's submissive by nature, but will absolutely be dominant if the mood call for it.

Same goes for being top/bottom, shorter men topping him?? A win.

Manhandling comes with the whole package, Piotr is strong, and he's just bigger than 90% of other people. But hey, if you just want to be picked up and banged?? He can do it.

The Steel form . . . might come out, but he's extremely reluctant. He never wants to hurt anyone, but if you ask for it, then it'll happen.

He's super about communication tbh, I'm noticing it as I write this down, he's just all about it and being a soft spoken king.

SURPRISE ANOTHER ORAL KING

He loves mapping lover's bodies with his mouth and hands

His pecs jiggle, grab them FUYDHFKJDHDH

His ass jiggles, grab it.

His (censored) -- I'm not finishing that

He likes sex in nature, in water, stuff like that. Anything that can give him artistic muse.

ZATANNA

MAGIC IN BED! But less freaky than John.

When you get her going and she starts speaking backwards you know you're doing a good job.

THE FISHNETS STAY ON

She dominates John Constantine, but in pretty much every other relationship she's a submissive queen.

Enjoys being tied up, enjoys giving herself over to another person and letting them take control since she always feels like she needs to be in control in other aspects of her life.

A romantic at heart, she loves inviting people to her giant bubble bath. Lots of sensual moments actually, she wants massages.

Bite her.

She also enjoys air sex, whether it's just her floating from her arousal or full on flying.

hi ! i’m 21, and use they/she pronouns ! it’s officially october now so i am in the search for some darker plots with an 18+ partner ! i’m not replacing any of my current partners ! all my characters are also 18+ (if anything they’re all mostly 25+!)

i’m a novella writer and use third person perspective, though i will say i spend days writing little headcannons and perfecting dynamics before we jump into roleplay just because i genuinely enjoy it. i also enjoy making boards, playlists, edits, and other fun stuff!

please be comfortable with darker themes as some of these are inspired by horror films or shows with heavier elements. i’m so up for nsfw ! i’d also like to point out that my female characters tend to be flawed little shits and they’re not exactly strictly submissive in their behavior so don’t worry about you having to always have to make your character lead the plot because my character is too meek or something like that!

some of the VERY basic mxf plots i have in mind with me as the f role! i’m so up for brainstorming together inspired by these ! Muse A is intended to be your character! :)

Plot 1: The End Of The Fucking World Inspired! Muse A thinks he is a psychopath and plans to kill a person — this being Muse B. They don’t know each other well (maybe they only know each other from work, they’ve gone to college together, etc.) Muse B is a stressed out employee with too much on her plate and decides that the best thing they could do to rid of their negative feelings is simply to leave. Inevitability they’re going to fall in love, they’re going to end up caring for one another, it’ll be sweet and tender and lingering touched….delicious.

Plot 2: some tasty religious trauma. Muse A is part of some sort of cult or something of that sort in a small town. It’s up to you whether or not you’d like for them to be deep into it, maybe even as some sort of priest, or the son of someone important, or if you’d like them to reject this, to want out of there or just a blind follower. I really want to make these plots flexible for your characters! Muse B is a documentarian visiting the town! OR some un unholy matrimony of a messed up couple pfft

Plot 3: Muse A is politician, and Muse B is his new PR manager. Very co-dependent! Your character can be a great, corrupt evil little shit, or absolutely clueless about how to handle stuff or doing this just to get attention to something else (like he has a company and this is great publicity). Very flexible plot! I just have a thing for bickering couples who have to play nice in front of people!

Plot 4: Muse A is a washed-up late-night TV host and Muse B is an eccentric documentarian fascinated by his descent into madness! Super flexible!

Plot 5: Muse A is a mentally unstable heir to a powerful family, and Muse B is hired to keep his image in check. Way too much co-dependency and feeling as though the line between work and personal life is mixing and badlyyyy. these crazy kids

Plot 6: Muse A is a lawyer and Muse B is one of his clients. Their relationship begins to blur once she starts detailing much too much about her life to him and makes him feel as though there’s a connection there. There’s some obsession, some form of tender care to make things right for her. Whether this is by taking matters into his own hands or simply lending a shoulder to cry on.

please feel free to reach out !

some of the VERY basic mxf plots i have in mind with me as the f role! i’m so up for brainstorming together inspired by these ! Muse A is intended to be your character! :)

Plot 1: The End Of The Fucking World Inspired! Muse A thinks he is a psychopath and plans to kill a person — this being Muse B. They don’t know each other well (maybe they only know each other from work, they’ve gone to college together, etc.) Muse B is a stressed out employee with too much on her plate and decides that the best thing they could do to rid of their negative feelings is simply to leave. Inevitability they’re going to fall in love, they’re going to end up caring for one another, it’ll be sweet and tender and lingering touched….delicious.

Plot 2: some tasty religious trauma. Muse A is part of some sort of cult or something of that sort in a small town. It’s up to you whether or not you’d like for them to be deep into it, maybe even as some sort of priest, or the son of someone important, or if you’d like them to reject this, to want out of there or just a blind follower. I really want to make these plots flexible for your characters! Muse B is a documentarian visiting the town! OR some un unholy matrimony of a messed up couple pfft

Plot 3: Muse A is politician, and Muse B is his new PR manager. Very co-dependent! Your character can be a great, corrupt evil little shit, or absolutely clueless about how to handle stuff or doing this just to get attention to something else (like he has a company and this is great publicity). Very flexible plot! I just have a thing for bickering couples who have to play nice in front of people!

Plot 4: Muse A is a washed-up late-night TV host and Muse B is an eccentric documentarian fascinated by his descent into madness! Super flexible!

Plot 5: Muse A is a mentally unstable heir to a powerful family, and Muse B is hired to keep his image in check. Way too much co-dependency and feeling as though the line between work and personal life is mixing and badlyyyy. these crazy kids

Plot 6: Muse A is a lawyer and Muse B is one of his clients. Their relationship begins to blur once she starts detailing much too much about her life to him and makes him feel as though there’s a connection there. There’s some obsession, some form of tender care to make things right for her. Whether this is by taking matters into his own hands or simply lending a shoulder to cry on.

please like so that i am able to reach out to you !
