#theyre just scribbles but just to be safe

[mugentakeda]

i could not contain the silliness

[anatomical-puppet]

i liked these sketches so. funky color toxic faggots

[castadnova]

my tuoys (necromancy dykes)

they do not have names yet but theyre the current story making attempt

[crushedsweets]

Can you share headcanons or more ninakate drawings? :)

YES I CANNNN!!! ok usual disclaimer, my AU drastically changes both characters!

i'm using this to focus on nina and 'the chaser'! mostly just rambling about how they would connect, thoughts on their relationship, whatever. not very romantic :') naturally I subdue the chaser a lot here

ok so. 'the chaser' isnt really kate, like most HCs go. the chaser is a violent, animalistic pawn of slendy that tears through everything slendy wants it to. she killed lauren, someone kate loved long before she got sick.

and dont get me wrong, nina is not some special exception. however, the chaser targets threats; lauren trying to take the pages. nina isnt a threat(slendy even sees her as an asset), but the chaser will drag her out of the mines by the leg with little care.

toby would escort nina if she's being stubborn about visiting kate. kate keeps telling both of them to stop trying to see her at the mines, saying she'll just come to the cabin more often. but they know she wont, they know she'll just sit and rot if nobody comes and drags her out - effectively leaving her completely isolated and only getting sicker and sicker.

i like the idea of the chaser eventually trusting Toby, and if Nina is always paired with him, she'll eventually be okay with Nina. especially seeing Nina tentatively bring her paper to scribble on, setting down bags of food for the chaser to tear into, water bottles, etc.

ok this is really goofy nobody laugh. you guys know that scene in tarzan where he's like poking at jane, lifting her hair and squeezing her face and stuff? i kinda see the chaser and nina like that.

theyre NEVER left alone together for the first few months, toby doesnt even let the chaser get close to nina, but maybe nina and kate are going on a walk and kate starts getting a headache and looks up and her eyes are glossed over and she hunches over and nina knows thats not kate anymore. nina taking nervous steps back, trying to figure out what she's supposed to do without toby, the chaser stalking forward. nina stumbles back and hits a tree, slides down and covers her head, immediately thinking of the time she caught kate tearing a grown man apart.

im just SO OBSESSED WITH THE CHASER BEING CURIOUS ABOUT NINA. the chaser knows ninas not a threat(+slendy likes nina), she associates nina with toby, and nina is so flashy and clams up so awkwardly. has the chaser crouched in front of a curled up nina, pushing her head back against a tree and tugging at her hoops. peeling off a fake eyelash and cringing at it. trying to bite her acrylics(in which nina yanks her hand away and the chaser stares at her hella pissy.)

really loving the idea of the chaser having a massive ass headache, curled on the floor, incapable of fighting. nina coming along and soothing its hair down and pulling it into a little hug and just sitting there. hurts a little to be squeezed so damn tight by the chaser, but she gets over it. . .

i dont think kate will EVER trust the chaser, but ninas a bit more optimistic. she'll go to the mines without toby now. she's learned to be quiet and gentle doing it, rather than her usual jumping and giggling and squealing. gives both kate AND the chaser time to wake up and come to her.

and ok ninas still totally sick in the head. while the chaser doesnt fully see her as a friend(or girlfriend), more like... a doll. ? a companion? something to pull around and grab and examine. and nina THINKS shes some special exception, she thinks she's so special that the chaser loves her, she loves how fucking terrifying it is while just squeezing her face, loves bragging to Toby and seeing his horrified face when he realizes Nina was left alone with it.

but frankly i am scared for nina cuz she is nowhere near as safe as she thinks she is. i could see kate starting to actively avoid nina. hiding out in the radio tower so nina cant find her, trying to push her away, telling her she doesnt want to see her. tell her slendy doesnt want her around, fake a headache, all of this. drama drama drama miscommunication issues etc etc ...

eventually nina needs to work on boundaries, listening to people, understanding she isnt that special, looking at things very objectively, actually examining danger, not seeking thrills, etc... all of that. big obstacle.

but nina loves the chaser, even if the chaser doesnt love her. and kates so fucking grateful it hasnt hurt nina yet.

Heads Up 7-Up

got tagged by @indecentpause to share seven or so lines of a wip! I have a bunch of snippet things that are never going to see the light of day(or completion for that matter) so might as well show a bit of it off

For context, this is an au where ortega and caine never met in the cafe, so none of the rangers know theyre alive. It takes place at the first meeting with chen in the park!

At least he had the dog park. It was safe ground, a place away from memories or dreams. A place where they could relax, just for a little bit. He let himself close his eyes and take a much needed breath of fresh air. It was a testament to the power of either the dream or the dogs that Caine didn’t notice what happened next.  A hand on his shoulder. Metal and stiff. “Are you… alright?” That was all it took for them to instinctively jump from the bench, shifting away as far and fast as possible. Luckily, whoever his assailant was didn’t seem to expect that reaction, because shoving the hand away proved easier than it should have. Caine managed to put a few inches of distance between them before he recognized who it was. A litter of scars. Modded hands. The legs were new, adding more height than before, but somehow it only reinforced the memories. Steel. Marshal Steel. Christ. This couldn’t be a coincidence. Even with a dog on a leash and mods too weak for a fight, there was no way running into him was an accident. How did Steel know he was alive? Did he let something slip in Carter’s mansion? They knew even the slightest clue would set him off, and saving the civilians back then wasn’t wise, but christ, they thought they had more time.  Of course, Caine knew they weren’t getting any answers from Steel. So he did the only logical thing he could. He turned heel and ran.

tagging @koala2all, @scribbling-stardust, @moremysteriesthantragedies, @marzipan-corner, @mecharose, @void-botanist, and @asterhaze! have fun yall

[softness-and-shattering]

Play for its own sake is great, and, like with children, play is how we learn. Especially creatively. Try things you dont expect will work just to see what happens. Use your materials unconventionally. Ive been wanting to get a hole puncher so i can sew on paper,like how in leatherwork it seems like they punch the holes first. Or take a page where ink has bles through ans draw some shapes on top like youre seeing creatures in the clouds and also sort of doing a connect-the-dots. Push your ideas, push your materials, do whatever the fuck you want. Risk bad art, make bad art, make weird incomprehensible shit because thats how you have fun, and its how you learn texhnique and how you find your voice. Then when you want to make something in particular, you have all this varied skill and experience to pull from. And your weird practise get better and you get more intentional and you start really liking what youve made.

Youre only limited by your imagination, and somewhat by your tools. (Better tools can make better art, look smoother and more vibrant and blend better etc. However theyre not required to make good art or have fun. You can make good art with anything. Often its about what you express more than the technique itself, sometikes a scribble is wonderfully expressive and a 50-hour painting looks weird and stiff. Its just like that sometimes).

What youre not limited by is rules. There are no rules other than like, safety. Wear protective equipment if necessary. Dont mess around with a microwave to make a tool no matter what the internet tells you. Be safe. Go nuts.

Did you know? Or did you forget? You can do whatever you want with your art. Put random scribbles wherever. Horizontal lines over your character. Add dots everywhere and on everything. Draw eyes different than the rest of the face. Change art styles halfway through. Cut and glue paper cutouts. Use paints and markers together. Use all the filters. Use photos on top to add texture.

You can do what you want. Like literally literally literally.

Add a rubber ducky in the corner for no reason, put text in different languages on the background, leave your handprints or wipe your fingers on the paper.

Go have fun now this stuff isn't meant to be stressful for you

The Day I Made Joel Hokka Laugh, aka concert report from High 5ive Summer Fest @ Stockholm, 1.7.2022 🖤

By now these are more like diary entries so I'm gonna start by telling how goddamn nervous I was because first of all I had to make my way to the venue all by myself in a foreign city, and when I had done that successfully I had to get nervous AGAIN because holy fucking shit I was gonna meet the boys face-to-face at the signing session? 😵

And like. Where do I even start 😅

..I guess with Niko, as he was the first one in the row to sign the card! As soon as he addressed me I said "MOI" as clearly as I could to indicate I'm Finnish 🤡 Then I, umm, talked about the weather?

mä: Ootteko tarennu

Niko & Aleksi: Ollaan tarettu joo.. (😂)

Niko: Laitetaanko tällane [nimmarikortti]?

mä: Laitapa semmone 😎

(Sorry, my extremely deep and intellectual conversation with Niko doesn't translate to English that well 😇)

And remember how I was low-key planning on printing pictures of our family dachshunds for them to sign? I didn't do that (because my printer wasn’t cooperating 🤣), HOWEVER I did show Aleksi a picture of Osku and Bobby on my phone 😃 ..and proceeded to talk about how old they are and how Osku has had some back issues lately and how Bobby learned to swim last Monday and we just bonded over dachshunds 😭💞

Aleksi: Ai että! Mäyräkoirat on ihan parhaita! / Dachshunds are the best!

mä: Nii onki! mutta välillä vähän itsepäisiä. / They are! But stubborn sometimes.

I don't remember what exactly Aleksi said then but he agreed 🥲

Joonas was also taking a peek at the dog picture on my phone but I didn't say anything to him because I was recovering from the exchange I had had with Aleksi 😆

And then there was Joel <3

mä: Moi :)

Joel: Moi. Oot Suomesta tullu tänne? / You’ve come here from Finland?

mä: Joo!

Joel: M I K S / W H Y

mä: Miksei? / Why not? 😂

Joel: Ei tää ihan mikään Tuska oo mutta... / This ain't quite like the Tuska festival (=a heavy metal music festival theyre perfomong at today)

(😂😂😂😂😂)

Joel was SO talkative and it was such a shame I couldn't hear (or understand 😆) half of what he said 🥺🤲

He was wearing a bun when they arrived but let his hair down once the signing started and then tied it up to a bun again immediately after the signing session was over. An important detail, I know lol you're welcome

Tommi, on the other hand, didn't say a single fucking thing in true Tommi manner and used the opportunity (of Joel's talkativeness) to quickly scribble his signature on the card and pass it on to Olli

And oh my fucking god

Like. You've all seen pictures of Olli? Seen videos of him? You all know he's stunning? Gorgeous? Heavenly?

From, like, one, metre away, though? With the sun lighting up his eyes? Him looking straight into your eyes and smiling at you? He is fucking beautiful

In fact, he is SO beautiful, suddenly just THERE in front of me when I had barely recovered from having Joel talk full sentences to me that I swear I lost my consciousness for a second there. I'm not exaggerating, I felt like I was hit by a truck:

He said "moi" (hi)

I said "kiitos" (thank you)

🤡

Then I was just. Shaking for about five minutes. The first thing I could make myself say (besides "oh my god") was a dumbfounded "Olli smiled at me?!" 😵😂

I've been grinnning at this interaction ever since 😅

After I had recovered from the thrill of getting to interact with them (safe for Tommi "just some dude" Lalli) and seeing the queue to their table sort of die out, I was like "...I'm gonna go there again! :D"

And I did!! 🙈 to get a signed card for "a friend who couldn't make it" (👋) and Niko was like "sure!" 🥰

It was also cute how carefully and concentratedly Niko writes/draws his signature 😭💖

I didn't say anything to Aleksi this time around because I was gathering courage to talk with Joonas: I told him they should play Den Glider In 😅

And Joel heard this and laughed, I repeat JOEL LAUGHED AT SOMETHING FUNNY I SAID NO I'M NOT OKAY GUYS I MADE HIM SMILE AND LAUGH!!!!! 😭

Joonas said that it would be convenient since the venue was right next to Globen (the arena where Team Finland won its first ice hockey world championship title in 1995 against Sweden and proceeded to "steal" their official song made specifically for the tournament, the aforementioned Den Glider In). He added that maybe they should use it as the intro song lol (they didn't 😔)

Then Joel asked me to shout "PERKELE" during the show 😂 (which I did! I don't think they heard me though, but at the end of the show I heard the Finnish dudes standing behind me shout "perkele" as well 💙🤍

Joel went on about some (assumably) Finnish band (didn't hear which one) that managed to have a whole arena of people to chant "perkele" at their concert 😅 Joel baby I would've been up for that, where were you?!

..and again Tommi managed to avoid small talk by signing the card as quickly as he could and passed it on again 😆

..*sigh* to Olli 😩

Like, I had planned to break the ice by joking how the first time around I had said "thank you" instead of "hi"

But like. Olli's method of avoiding awkward small talk is clearly to just. Look into your eyes like you're the only person in the universe, smile that stunning little smile of his, and say "moi"

I managed to say "moi" back this time though, but there was no way I could've stayed to, like, actually have a conversation with him 🙈 he is so beautiful?! 😭

I bet they put him last on purpose because I don't get how anyone could recover from his beauty to be able to perfom any sort of human interaction for the following 5-10 minutes 😅

So I got TWO cards with their signatures, and on my way inside the venue I tried to put them in my backpack but I dropped one on the ground and immediately after a member or staff came from behind me and stepped right on Olli's pretty face 🤣 I started laughing at the comical timing of the situation and so did the stranger next to me who witnessed it 😂

And the concert itself? Let me start by saying that it was so..pleasant? In comparison to all the BC concerts I've been to in Finland, all of which have, safe for the time BC was on stage, been rather UNpleasant due to a LOT of teenagers and little kids screaming and disrespecting your personal space 🙄

There was none of that, not even on the first row?! 😭

So yeah. First fucking row. I could literally see the sweat gleaming on Porko's tits 💦

And speaking of Porko it was SUPER fascinating to get to see his guitar playing so up close 👀 that man sure has skillful fingers...

And on the first row you realise even more how there's SO MUCH STUFF happening on stage ALL THE TIME, it's hard to decide what to focus on :')

I feel like I can't actually remember anything, the whole thing was like a fever dream? 😂

Like, Joonas was RIGHT in front of me in all his shirtless glory 💖

Olli visited our side fairly often (so often thay Joonas had to push him away at some point, as I was told afterwards 🤣 (didn't see this myself sadly but I can imagine)), and I feel like Olli and I sang to each other a couple of times, but that could've been just wishful thinking 😇 He def looked into my camera once while singing along but his face is all dark in the video so I have no proof of this lol but yeah. Was an experience 💖

In Jyväskylä when I made eye-contact with him I started giggling nervously, but this time I was brave and held his gaze 😤

And say what you say, Don't Fix Me slaps live 😤

At some point during Left Outside Alone maybe (after I had just stopped filming) Joel was literally walking backwards towards Aleksi's lap/crotch (who had come down to the stage from behind his table) because that's how much he wants to be the little spoon 🥰

That was some time before the Olli/Joonas butt slap that I caught on camera lol

Sadly no Niko/Joonas kiss 😔

If you need to hear Joel speaking literally 3 words of Swedish, hit me up, I got it on video 😁 (and when I say "literally 3 words" I mean LITERALLY "ett, två, tre" 🤣)

There was a moshpit or something during Over My Dead Body, we just barely avoided it by being on the first row lol

"We" as in @thesupernaturalwhovian (thanks for the water bottle!) and @forehead-knife 🖤 it was so nice meeting you, thanks for hanging out!

It was such a shame their set was only 40 minutes, it went by way too fast :( Perhaps their next gig in Sweden will be at one of the bigger venues 😌🖤

[obsessedandthecity]

Wheres the line?

Here's the situation. It's very difficult for me to keep track of things. What kind of things? All. I have no idea where my credit card is but no one's charged anything on it so its clearly in my house abyss. I have 2.5 pairs of airpods (because I lose a pair, buy new ones, lose them again) but at the moment can only find solo left airpod. I have a doctors appt some time this week, either Wednesday or Thursday. It's on them to send me a text reminder or five if I'm actually expected to show up.

It's annoying for me and everyone who must witness me scramble around looking for all of my life possessions multiple times a day. Im really, really aware of this so, after thirty years of drowning in my own happy tornado, and accepting that I have ADHD, I am going to fix it. Fix what? All. It started with the basics. Get a wallet. Put the credit card and license in the wallet and never ever take them out. I know I want to run in to CVS and only bring my card because a wallet is sooo cumbersome (and what if I lose it?) but we cannot separate cards from wallet. It's the buddy system. THEN, we have big brother: the purse. Purse drives me insane. It's small, cross body, but it's always swinging everywhere and whacking into racks of baked goods at Wegmans (Wegmans <3). But purse is the enforcer. Cards go in wallet. Wallet goes in purse. Purse stays clasped and, like wallet, we never take anything out of purse. .... and it's SO HARD. Continuous, genuine effort put into these three tasks that are ingrained/innate in others.

SO ANYWAY, example aside, here's another example. I have bought an agenda. A place where I can write everything down and therefore be able to take over the world. A paper personal assistant (PPA). Great idea! Life problem solved! Except how I came about said agenda.

It had been on my mind for a while that I needed a PPA but it's such a pressure filled ask and I'd been avoiding it. Selecting a PPA is an OCD decathlon. Are the colors right? How do the pages feel? This one with the flowers is - GOING TO GIVE ME CANCER. Dangit, ok, Not the flowers. How about this one with stripes? Nice blue tones. But blue represents sadness so if I buy this one I'll be sad all of next year. So we converse and argue and ruminate and while I love paper products and Im excited about the potential of PPA to tame all the "dont forget you have an appt somewhere at sometime soonish" flying around my head, the entire process sounds exhausting. A few weeks ago I'm standing in the Barnes and Noble line (shop local! Do as I say not as I do) and there, perfectly placed by their marketing peeps, is a stand of planners. Colors, shapes, bindings. It's already March. I need an agenda for this year. Pick one. We can do it. In the middle there's an 8x12 ish, spiral bound. It's covered in a repeating pattern of blue terries, except one, who is orange. And theyre so happy and cute. My brain is like BLAH DEATH BLAH but like, shut up? Real me wants this agenda. The secret messages are OCD. We know this. So I bought it. Way to go self!

Then I got it home. And I kind of open it a few times, pretend to be happy - show it to everyone who reaffirms to me it's quite lovely. And then I sat it in my office, and never touched it again. Because death. And bad. I bought the planner I wanted and while I know OCD thoughts arent real and neither a specific agenda nor my choices about it control the future, it makes me uncomfortable. What will happen to the stuff I write in it? Will the phone call go badly? What if I write down something for my son? Will the curse spread to him? Or if I scribble notes about a project I'm working on it, does that lead to doom? I just dont want to deal with it. Why invite all that into my head and then allow it to spread onto the event itself. So its mid March and I dont have an agenda. Perhaps not a surprise for anyone but guys I'm trying. Last week, at Target, I saw a smaller, simpler planner. It's floral but feels safe, standard. I bought it, it's in my bedroom (so as not to be contaminated by other PPA in the office).

But, is that allowed? Where's the line in the fight against OCD? I've told myself I need to go against every thought. I should use the scary PPA and deal with the anxiety (that I will carry over in to said phone calls and appointments) because that's how we stop OCD monster from growing. But sometimes, I want to take the easy route. The safe agenda. Is that a failure? Can there be a grey area where we compromise? The jury is out.

And this, folks, is why I might miss my doctors appointment on Wednesday or Thursday.

[babysizedfics]

hey! i just wanted to pop by and say that i love your blog loads 🥺🥺 also, i have a question! does roman ever give vee tickles? when they’re big OR small? 💗

aaawW thank u so much for saying so !!

heads up i accidentally made this a ficlet halfway through lol

warning for tickling and teasing

and YES roman tickles vee a lot hsjshdhs you see it on the ic blog quite a lot - if they're hanging out they are actually pretty touchy feely. even when big vee usually ends up in romans lap and he will purposefully be cheeky because he knows roman ends up tickling him as revenge jdhds

just yesterday roman was holding the video game controller out of reach of virgil and fondly teasing him abt being too short to reach it, so vee twisted his septum piercing with his tongue to freak roman out. roman is very grossed out by things easily and dropped the controller to get vee to stop

vee started playing the video game, still sitting in romans lap with a smug smile on his little face... but he was kinda disappointed roman didn't put up more of a (tickle) fight.

so he licked romans cheek

roman freaked out, went to scrub his cheek withm soap, compained on the blog about vee being gross and 'baby snot on his face', then vee just denied it all (purposefully being cheeky to try to get roman to retaliate) until roman started chasing him for revenge

they ended up in virgils room with roman pinning him to the floor. virgil THOUGHT roman was going to lick his cheeks back, but instead roman asked him to admit he did it. virgil denied it and roman started wiggling a finger under his ear

vee squeaked and a giggle escaped

"admit it!" roman demanded

of cours vee knew what would happen if he didnt. so: "no, im innocent!"

then romans other hand circled a finger around the side of his ribs. virgil gasped and started giggling constantly and wriggling under roman

"Last chance, vee-vee!" roman warns with eyebrows raised and a big smile

virgils gigges are squeaky and breathless already, he really is too sensitive for a lot of tickling. but he meets romans eyes for a brief second before they fall shut with another gasp when romans finger brushes a particularly bad tickle spot. "n-no-ho" virgil protests... then he licks his deptum piercing again just to add fuel to the fire

roman cries out in disgust then immediately starts scribbling both his hands quickly over the sides of virgils.

virgil screams and bucks and gasps and blushes so hard

at this point logan appears in the doorway to check what is happening

"h-help, lo-ho" virgil pleads, eyes watering and cheeks aching from laughing so much

"no, don't help Lo!" roman argues, chuckling at vee and kindly slowing his fingers enough to give vee room to breathe between giggles "this is justice for a heinous act!"

logan sniffs in amusement, "well i am not one to stand in the way of justice"

virgils eyes fly open and land on logan "no! pl-hee-he-ease, M-ha-Mama!"

hearing vee call logan mama immediately makes roman stop his fingers, because if vee is starting to regress theres no way he would enjoy such intense tickling

logan steps closer and leans down to better speak to vee. "are you alright, little one?" he asks in a very babytalk voice, then roman stops pinning him and pinches his cheek a little

"hi vee-vee, do you feel tiny?"

and virgil goess BRIGHT RED because he isnt regressing at all, he just used the Mama card to try to get logan to feel sorry for him. he covers his face with his hands and shakes his head and mumbles through his fingers "not little, sorry... just wanted.."

the other two frown. "wanted what, virgil" logan asks.

"do you want me to stop?" roman asks sincerely

virgil wriggles on the floor a little and pulls his hand down from his face enough to chew his thumbnail and reveal one eye and one very pink cheek "no.. just wanted, um... attention" he admits quietly

roman immediately lights up "Ohhhhhh-"

vee whines and covers his face again. roman takes his hands and pulls them away. "let me get this right... did you want more teases?"

vee's silence speaks loudly

"oh my god youre insatiable" roman laughs, but before virgil has time to feel insecure about it roman's fingers start teasing at his ribs again

"i think you have this under control," logan chuckles, then leaves.

"so teasing how tiny you are earier wasn't enough?" roman muses, his fingernails tracing lightly over each individual rib. virgil holds his lips tight to contain a squeal, but it just comes out as a highpitched whimper. "its not enough to just tease how your little arms can't reach when i hold a controller above my head?"

virgil cant respond because one of romans fingers is back under his ear and tickling right under his earlobe and making him titter and squirm

"and i dont think its enough to tease what an itty bitty widdle baby you are, either," roman says in a babytalk voice, laughing when vee whines and tries to hide his red cheeks but then roman pokes his tummy teasingly and vee immediately drops his hands to his tummy protectively. "because we all know what a tiny little cutie you are, with your baby bottles and pacis and your diapers"

"ro-ah!" virgil tried to protest but romans fingers went for the sides of his tummy and all he can do is gasp and wriggle and giggle and hope his cheeks dont catch fire with how much theyre burning

"so i think we'll just stick with teasing you... for how much you love being teased" roman says confidently

"nooo" virgil whines between breathless laughter

"yes, vee-vee" roman laughs. he's drawing little spirals over vee's sides now and it's making vee writhe and squeal

"you love the teases sooo much, how adorable is that, huh?" romans fingers slow down and atart tiptoeing over vee's ribs one by one like theyre stepping stones

vee gasps in a deep breath and lets himself calm down, all while squeaking and smiling so hard

"you pretend to not like it when we tease you for being the shortest, but everytime you get the biggest smile!" romans fingers go up so one wriggles under his ear again and one scribbles at his cheek. vee squeals and shakes his head

"no?!" roman gasps dramatically, "aw, but it's true vee! youre tiny and you love it! and you cant hide it anymore with those cute dimples popping out and your squeaky laughter whenever i hold something out of reach..."

virgils far gone from talking now. he's a flustered giggly mess

"hm and what about how much you love tickles? thats pretty adorable too you know" romans fingers go back to his ribs to circle around slowly and vee instantly curls up, legs bent up to his chest and accidentally trapping romans fingers there

"see!" roman laughs "you love being tickle tickle tickled so much you wont let me take my hands away!" he scribbles his fingers quickly now and vee squeals and rocks on the floor and gasps but his legs still hold romans hands there.

"n-n-no d-doh-ho--"

"no you don't?" roman guesses and virgil nods, eyes squint shut tight with laughter. "yes you do~" roman teases with a sing song babytalk voice. it makes virgils chest feel melty. "you love the tickles vee! Little vee is a little tickly cutie, aren't you?~"

virgil squeaks and gasps. romans fingers slow down and vee breathes through his giggles for a few moments. he's getting to his limit now

"cmon, vee~" roman sings and wiggles his hand sout from between virgils chest and knees. virgil squeals even tho roman wasnt trying to tickle him. roman laughs "if you admit you love teases and tickles then i'll stop"

it takes a couple of minutes for vee to be ready - both because he is so breathless and he keeps getting interrupted by giggle fits even though roman isnt touching him anymore, which just makes roman laugh too - but eventually virgil opens his eyes, squinting past tears of laughter and not bothering to hide his hot cheeks anymore and admits under his breath "i- i um i like being... teased and - and tickled"

"yeah you do" roman agrees with a big smug smile, then he gets up and helps pull vee up from the floor - vee's knees are wobbly and he collapses a little into roman when he is standing and they both laugh and roman keeps an arm around vee's shoulders when they go back to his room to carry on with the video game.

"that wasnt too much, was it?" roman asks a bit meekly after several minute of gameplay.

virgil looks iver to him and sees he refuses to take his eyes off the screen. romans fingers are fidgeting a bit with the controller even though its a cutscene on the screen.

"no," vee whispers, then lets himself wiggle back into romans lap like they'd been before. he looks at the screen as well and breathes deeply when romans arms circle around him. he feels secure and safe in his big brothers lap. "it was perfect" he admits quietly, stroking his fingers over romans arms

[adrienscroissantx]

What’re your alyanette hcs please I’m starving for content;;

Hoo boy you n me both

But i have a few things up my sleeve

Rose is the local Lesbian Therapist, and marinette goes to her to cry abt how gay she is. Mostly because her best friend is just really really pretty and nice and amazing and oh no oh no ROSE HELP

Alya talks to nino often, and has to keep asking nino if she looks good before marinette shows up, or if marinette was looking at her when she did this cool thing, or if hey maybe you could move over a seat at the movies so we can sit together? No big deal

Nino just wants them to kISS already but alyas like wait nO that's not allowed is it? Until she realizes its totally allowed now she doesn't know if marinette is interested

Meanwhile marinette is sobbing over how funny and cute and badass alya was today and rose is patting her back like shes a sad kitten.

Alya is brave, shes super brave, and she knows it. She's the one who kills the spiders, she's the one who holds marinette when they watch horror movies, she knows shed be the one to go out the car at make out point at midnight to inspect any scary noises (altho shes a bit too overconfident that she could fight and win the hidden axe murderer waiting for her).

Marinette is jumpy, and alya thinks this is hilariously adorable, but it doesn't mean she isn't brave. Alya holds a strong lack of fear, shes compelled by danger (a dangerous thing that leads her to chaos at every turn). Marinette feels fear, but knows how to face scary things anyway.

So she is the one who will clean the drain even though it's super gross and it makes alya queasy, and she's the one who will schedule the Parents Meeting Each Other Family dinner, she faces the problems.l

Alya is super protective over marinette but she doesn't notice it. Her arms around her neck, or just around her back, she always walks on the roadside of the sidewalk or she's big spooning marinette on the couch. She doesn't always know it, but when akumas break out, she always makes sure that marinette gets away safely or has some place to hide before she starts filming the attack.

Marinette is the stronger one even if she doesn't look it, so have marinette spinning alya around (in autumn coats with scarves on, or floral print dresses in spring).

Theyre the type to laugh at themselves as they slowdance in the kitchen wearing their pyjamas, doing silly little spins and stepping on each other's toes.

Marinette loves playing with alyas hair, there's just so much of it and she loves giving her different hair styles. Esp bc i hc that she has super curly hair and just straightens it. So super curly hair and marinette just loves it so much.

They DYE THEIR HAIR TOGETHER and it's an absolute mess.

Marinette absent Mindedly designing wedding dresses and then scribbling them bc shes embarrassed.

Alyas instagram is filled with mari pictures because she's super active and she loves showing her off. I'm talking bleary eyed marinette making pancakes in the morning, pictures on dates, cute couple selfies where they make silly faces or kiss each other's cheeks.

They would share a scarf and it would be adorable.

Marinettes love language is gifts/acts of service, and alyas is quality time/affection.

if you're ever feeling down, or just generally not good you could

write your feelings in a journal, decorate it, draw in it, vent in it, whatever

watch a show that makes you feel happy and/or safe, similar to your comfort show but most of you have sad shows as your comfort shows so a similar show. you could also watch one just to cry it all out

vent to yourself out loud, you dont have to worry about getting cut off or getting advice that generally doesnt help or words from others that make you feel bad

make a wallof text and say a bunch of stupid things on there or just rant

make your own discord server that only has you in it and say a bunch of shit

color, draw, or scribble whatever just for fun and aggressive movements to get pent up frustration out

remember the fact that you are a great person and always will be

realize that you dont have to live up to the expectation of being a "great person" or "perfect" or anything positive because youre only human and can be whatever

play cursed games on roblox because theyre stupid and fun

wrestle and smackdown your bed or a stuffed animal, trust me its fun

anyways youre very cool

i am humbly requesting more carter and salem in the bunny outfits. they looked so cute !!

thank u so much for this i love them so much hehehbdhdbdj

[molabuddy]

eghehehehe >:-] ..... ok i spent way longer on these than i thought (and i wouldve done more but im burnt out) many of em r stuff that I do and a few are also inspired by my friend Dell @/miixtape .. habit’s get to be at the top but the rest are under the cut

Habit - he has trouble standing still i think and likes to sorta bounce on his heels n rock back n forth a bit when not doing anything . it likes to walk sort of cartoonishly, shifting its weight weirdly and swinging its arms reaally wide bc Feels Nice :-] even tho sometimes it accidentally hits someone while doing that but that's ok. Also if Habit's sitting in a swivel chair they have to spin in it no matter what . also they probably pull their hair a bit when theyre stressed but they're trying to work on not doing that as much. also also his coat is sorta like a comfort item for him . its super soft and wearing it makes him feel more safe / secure . he runs his hands along the sides / collar of the coat to ground himself whenever hes upset / panicked.

Kamal ! he chews things, like th inside of his lip / his hands / his nails / his sleeves , sometimes he tries to use stim toys instead but he often forgets he has them rip. she likes to run her hands along fabrics, usually her own pants (and ends up with that weird carpet burn-y feeling in her hands but that doesn't stop her) and also along Habit's coat bc Soft ,, nd she probably plays with her hair too like twirls it around her fingers and stuff . and he repeats things over n over again too - usually just like little phrases that he has stuck in his head.

Putunia ! she's like habit but 10x more energetic she's gotta be movin !! she likes to run around a lot nd swing and sway her body around a lot too and she can't sit still for very long . if something makes her excited she WILL jump right out of her seat and will not sit back down . She likes to swing her arms about / punch the air / punch at nothing which . similarly to Habit means she sometimes hits ppl around her by accident (and sometimes on purpose . sometimes u just gotta give your friends a good ol punch in the side!) which sometimes Hurts bc she's Strong. Also she likes to yell fighting / comic book sound effects to herself :-]

Parmslwy ... Parblle ..... Parsley - he chews things of course <3 pretty much anything that's around him / on his desk when he's working he chews on which is usually like . pens, pencils, pieces of paper etc . and he usually ends up destroying them bc his teeth are kind of sharp and he doesn't notice he's doing it until he realises he's basically eaten half a pen <\3 he started using chewy necklaces after he got tired of chewing up all his stationary but he has a tendency to bite chunks off of them absentmindedly. He also bounces nd sways / kicks his legs a lot even when he's standing up.

Millie !! she likes to hit things :-] usually she has either her club or some other sort of stick / pipe / etc with her which she uses to bonk things with . her favorite thing to hit is metal pipes and fences bc of the sound and vibration they make . she also likes to drag her hand or whatever she's carrying along the wall when she walks, both bc it feels nice and bc she knows it sometimes makes un-reparable marks in the wall depending on what she uses >:-]

Randy - the smell thing is 100% a stim he keeps strong smelling things around him / with him p much at all times . also he likes to just write nonsense in cursive / scribble on paper when he's bored or needs something to do with his hands . nd they like to rock n sway a bit when standing and twist n flap their hands ! They also like repeating stuff, usually like . small rhyming phrases, bits of poetry or just random sounds / gibberish to themself .

Tim tam - they mostly like visual stims . they reaally like fidget spinners - they steal lots of them, esp the shiny metallic ones and cool shaped ones - and they sit for a while nd watch them spin . They also spend a long time watching stuff like water running / flowing and ants moving around. They also do some physical stimming too like flapping their hands when they're happy and swaying back and forth !

Trevor .... dogboy .... he chews on things too, usually his scarf or his coat sleeves, and he flaps his hands when he's excited !! Trevor also likes to make barking and growling noises to itself and like . click its teeth together like biting at nothing. It scratches / bites / picks at its skin, mainly its hands a lot, especially when nervous / stressed , enough that it has some scars there . His coat and scarf are also comforting items bc they're Warm and kind of heavy so they make him feel secure.

hi cani ask if you have tip for intrusive thoughts and delusion(??) i am having not a goodtime at he moment thankyou regardless

hey love, im sorry youre having a bad time. I can only give you advice based on what helps me, it might not help you, but I hope it does.

okay, so. intrusive thoughts. theyre shit, aren't they?

remember you are not your thoughts. whatever horrible thing you're thinking, it doesn't mean you're a bad person. I promise, you're not.

the way I think of intrusive thoughts is a lot like how I think of my hallucinations. theyre a part of me. theyre like the self sabotaging part of me, trying to ruin my day so nobody else can. so try and extend a hand of kindness to yourself. tell that side of you that you understand why they feel they must do this, and that its okay. theres no point in beating yourself up over them, because then you're just being cruel to yourself twice. so tell that part of you that you understand, you don't have to like it, but you get that theyre just trying to help you.

try to express how you feel. write it down, draw it, it doesn't matter. it feels better once you can get it out of your head. just angrily scribble on a piece of paper if you want.

try to ground yourself. Close your eyes. put your hands on your lap. feel the weight of your hands, feel where your feet are touching the floor. feel your body moving. where is that feeling of horror coming from? mine is in my chest. describe how it feels to yourself. now think about what you can smell and hear. try and identify it. when you feel ready, open your eyes and bring yourself into the present. describe the room to yourself.

you can rant to me how you feel, you can go on anonymous and I won't publish it. just tell me how you feel if you want to. a problem shared is a problem halved.

I said it before, but it's not your fault, whatever you're thinking. your thoughts don't make you a bad person. intrusive thoughts are actually what you dread.

delusions:

im afraid I don't have many tips for this as I'm still learning to deal myself.

but try the grounding exercise we talked about above. if you find yourself getting lost in your head, bring yourself into the present.

try and look for evidence of what you believe. if you can tell someone else, ask them to help. for example, I get paranoid delusions of people following and gathering information on me. so what can I do to prove that to myself? you'll probably find there's no evidence. and that's okay.

I just kinda...let it flow. I try not to get stuck in the delusion. just carry on how you would anyway.

the fact you know it's a delusion is good. remind yourself of that. tell yourself "I know this is a delusion, it's still scary, but I know it's not real". be confident.

try harm reduction. so a big recurring delusion of mine is cameras in screw holes in the walls. I cover the holes up with stickers. don't encourage your delusion, just do things you know will lessen the fear.

if you can tell someone irl what you're feeling, please do. talk to your therapist or doctor if you can, or a parent, a room mate, a friend, a S/O.

acknowledge how scary it is. it's okay to be afraid. your mind, in it's own twisted way, is trying to look out for you. my therapist brought this idea up to me and its revolutionised my thinking. youre not stupid for feeling the way you do.

I know how terrifying this is, and im proud of you for reaching out. keep yourself safe. please don't hesitate to chat more if you want to. I won't judge you, I won't think youre crazy or stupid. this is always a safe place, and a judgement free zone. I got your back.

I hope you find something in here to help. I love you ♥️

Parent!Paranoia Sanders Sides AU!

No explanation, but I'll probably give the backstory later. For now: memes of Paranoia being an A-class parent and a chaos gremlin. (okay it started as memes but then just ended up as fleshing the AU out)

~~

Paranoia, worried abt his kids: I'm uhhhh gonna go to my room see ya later light sides

Paranoia, sneaking back into the subconscious to check on his now teenaged children: I'm gonna leave duke a r a t that I found and thought looked cool

Duke, waking up the next morning and yelling for 'Nesty bc "HOLY CRAP NESTY LOOK AT THIS RAT ISN'T SHE ADORABLE I WANNA HANG HER ON THE WALL": !!!!!!!!!!

~~

Paranoia gets a habit of sitting on the fridge because his children were wild as kids and sometimes duke comin at you with a knife warrants jumping onto counters

~~

Nesty, who doesnt get paid to deal with duke: I'm raiding dads liquor cabinet it's my due for putting up with this

Paranoia, physically manifesting: put the key to the liquor cabinet D O W N, Honesty

~~

The lights are confused as to why he disappears at random times of the day and night and he just "leave me TF alone before I leave you a goshdarn diddly P R E S E N T while youre sleeping I'm tired"

~~

patton: my child! my dark strange son!!

paranoia, who has children: ,,,,yea ok

~~

Patton ticks him off so he leaves a big halloween decor spider on his bed and nobody sleeps for weeks after that bc pattons too scared to touch it and paranoia maybeperhaps glued it onto his cover

~~

He's like one of those people you know might mean well but ooooooo boy theyre pushin buttons

~~

Paranoia, whos fav animal/insect is spiders and whose children have tarantulas and snakes on the regular: hes not even realistic!! You need to learn to get along with mr sparkles patton!! look at him. he's fluffy!

~~

He has googly eyes and glitter on him at all times of course hes named mr sparkles

~~

paranoia gets to be a little petty. as a treat

~~

Paranoia just carries bags of glitter around and whenever mr sparkles gets duller he takes mr sparkles to the kitchen counter and he dumps glitter on him

Logan and patton are tired of cleaning up bc paranoias just petty enough to make their counters eternally sparkly

~~

"why is there glitter all over the kitchen?"

paranoia, holding mr sparkles: :)

~~

Paranoia, after AA: I hate purple but they dont know that now do they

Paranoia is actually orange the last side is purple lol

~~

Chaos Gremlin dark sides and nobody is surprised bc paranoia raised them

~~

paranoia, going back to see his teen children after acting like a teen all day: what is up, fellow kids

honesty: i am going to lose it

~~

Wrath, coming to yell at them to keep it down: why are you purple I'm purple

Paranoia, cackling bc finally I can get out of this horrible color: *snaps fingers * I'M PARANOIA MOTHERTRUCKERS HAVE FUUUNNNNN I'M GONNA BE MAKING YOUR LIVES LIVING HELL FROM THIS POINT FORWARDS

~~

duke and nesty, pumped for halloween bc u l t i m a t e s p o o k: :D

paranoia, coming out in a traffic cone costume with a shit eating grin on his face: :D

~~

Paranoia, decorating for halloween bc "oh I'm sorry it's just the *sniffles * homesickness and we a l w a y s decorated for halloween" knowing full well all of his decorations are spider and witch themed bc they all like the salem witch trials

~~

He leaves ONE fake snake in romans cereal and the lights just. Lose it. Hes kicked back into the subconscious to be chaotic with his kids, no new side, just the hours upon hours of film hes gotten from the bugs hed placed around the unconscious and a plan for the next several movie nights

He gets back and honesty is w h e e z i n g bc he was watching through the cracks and they make a fail compilation of the light sides

It takes like two months for the lights to just go insane with him around not due to yknow paranoia but bc hes such a gremlin

~~

Patton asks if he was raised by wolves and he shoves mr sparkles at patton saying "take the issue of how I was raised up with my father, a-hole!!"

He doesnt actually curse he just yells "A-HOLE" so loud his kids can hear

~~

They dont find out he's a dad until hes summoned and hes making cookies or smt with the kids and hes in a bright orange stereotypical witch outfit,,, corset and all and an apron that says "worlds most chaotic dad" on the front

And hes talking to one of the kids like "duke you can only put dish soap in your batch nesty cant digest it like you can"

~~

Patton has an apron that says worlds least chaotic 'dad' courtesy of paranoia he made it himself(read: he stole pattons good apron and scribbled over it in sharpie)

~~

Paranoia is always close to cackling when around the lights bc theyre newbs to any chaos

~~

Roman and remus are twins but roman is the kind of kid to promptly forget abt anyone and logan n patton knew remus less than a day before he "disappeared" aka ran to the subconscious to explore and theyve just kinda blocked him out

~~

Logans fine with it and actually likes the decorations tho he has asked if they had to be so brightly coloured and if there had to be so much glitter

I say decorations but hes a secret gremlin at heart and is super close to snickering at all times bc of the pranks

~~

Also yes paranoia mildly dads roman it's great but he dads in an older sibling type way

~~

So pat and logan are all "hes fitting in as an older brother well" and they tell him abt their approval of his older brother chaos and hes just like "no this is how I am deal with it nothing to do with brothers" bc hes not telling them abt his kids he doesnt trust them

~~

Hes up at like midnight complaining with logan abt how patton doesnt let him be full chaos gremlin and logan says "mmmhmm did your parents in the dark side let you go wild with the chaos" and paranoia just,,,,, looks at him, dead in the eyes, and says "I dont have parents"

Cue logan being confusion

Paranoia, who genuinely didn't have parents: my parents are mr sparkles and the cat we've had for my entire life

Logan, who doesnt know they had a cat and is now worried bc "are you taking care of it???": ???

Paranoia: it's great for keeping the Others in line tho I just say "do your chores or no snuggle time with ms peregrin" and they do their chores while I'm making dinner

logan, incredibly confused: i don't know what you mean but ok

Paranoia: yeah theyre dumb but it's the level of dumb youd expect from my idiots

~~

Or he slips up and refers to them as his children/kids and logan, not realizing they have an Actual Father/Sons relationship/age difference(paranoias abt.late 20s early 30s, remus defies all logic and has been about 9-10 for a few years now, and dees like early teens) just says "huh how.interesting would it be to have to deal with people your age that immature" and paranoias just. "Y e a h t h e y r e t o t a l l y t h e s a m e a g e a s I a m"

~~

Duke is very much baby and upon seeing duke eating glue paranoia and honesty the idiots decided to try it too

theyre so dumb dsdhdhdhjsdh

They AREEE and paranoia, after discovering that duke has the h a r d i e s t immune system they decide to test exactly what he can and cannot safely eat bc he may be dumb but hes also def a Dad and he just wants to take care of his kids and if that includes making sure that duke can safely consume toilet bleach then so be it

Duke can eat almost anything short of actual cyanide but cyanide just makes him sick like stomach bug sick

He somehow gets a fever,,,,, he has it for like half an hour and paranoia is amazed

Hes in bed,,,,, paranoia makes him soup,,,,,, hes all better and running around again

~~

Paranoias parenting rules:

Dont murder your brothers pls

Do your chores or no snuggle time with ms peregrin

Glitter is always a yes

Insults are fine just make sure you dont overstep and make your brothers insecure

all of them are printed and then the last one is scrawled at the bottom in

If you get sick, tell him immediately bc he will find out and he will be the most obsessive parent to make sure you feel better ASAP

If your pronouns/name/function change, tell him immediately, he'll make sure you dont feel uncomfortable as well as he can

Duke dont put dish soap in honestys baked goods you know he cant digest it

It's a nice system for making chaos but keeping it manageable

They're all printed then the last one's scrawled in glitter gel pen and duke wrote a reply that said (I'm sorry yall dont have as good an immune system as I do)

There was a whole passive aggressive arguement on the bulletin for the next week before it got taken down to make room for dukes art

They eventually started just putting them up over each other and using magnets instead of thumbtacks

The entire bottom portion of the walls are painted in chalkboard paint so theres no unerasable drawing on the walls and the rest of the paint is magnetic so they can hang pieces everywhere

Dukes improving rapidly tho and doesnt like looking at his old art all the time so paranoia holds onto the drawings in several filing cabinets in case he ever wants to do redraws or needs his original prints to make something in the Imagination

also bc,,, sentimental

jus a little

Yeah bc "yes my child draws nothing but blood gore and new animals but hes a creative genius and I love all of his art"

~~

Roman: anxiety I can see why you left

Paranoia: ??? What?? It's spoopy season??

Roman: there was BLOOD on the WALLS

Paranoia, internally: oh!!!! Duke perfected his blood recipe!!!!

Paranoia, externally: how did it taste?

Roman: WHO TASTES THE BLOOD ON THE WALLS?!?!

Paranoia: if it tasted like lemons or citrus you need to stay off of most foods, stick to crackers and broth- don't eat anything heavy until you're sure you wont throw it up

Patton, who was making cereal: ????

~~

Also!!!! @iliveinprocrasti-nation Thanks for helping me flesh this AU out!!!

[myelocin]

tw homophobia , religion, mental illness , mental breakdowns , sickness n shit (dont answer/readthis if ur not comfy i sincerely apologize ;;;)

sorry for the vent but sifkis about that parent thing,,, my relationship with them is so different from then and now :•D my parents are extremely religious and when it comes to politics n shit theyre (esp my mom) is aggressive bt it and saying that this and that are wrong (....like being part of the lgbtq+ community bc it's not part of god's plan and shit :'D but it's not just them,, it's everyone that's in our religion which scares me since they might abandon me if i ever come out when they say 'u can trust us') and as much as i hate that theyre like that and that they make me trust them less bc of it,,, i just cant find myself to hate them at all since there are still times when we do have fun around each other or i feel happy w them like when we're reminiscing or just whenever jobs, politics, and religion's out of the context then yeah it's still fun

they never were really there when it comes to emotional and mental support and they even go 'u shouldnt be depressed we give u everything u need' (which is why im so scared of telling then i want to go to therapy) and yeah they kinda are around when it comes to physical needs like shelter n food stuff and i'm so grateful for that honestly and love them for that but,,, at the same time theyre partly the reason why i'm a mess;3; it makes me so confused whether to love them or hate them whenever i remember that theyre like that and then when i remember about the little things like how at least every once in a blue moon, my mom comforts me n hugs me whenever i break down after a whole lot and sometimes understands that my mental health isn't always so well, how she reads books about understanding love languages, how my dad used to sing disney songs to put us to sleep as a kid,, and i think thats the only thing i could ever really rmb since they were always so busy with their own jobs and lives since i was a kid and i hate that theyre rarely around but my mind tells me they do it bc they love me and it's just really messy and confusing that i dont know what to do anymore esp now that my mom's not doing so well with her health so im just trying to be as grateful as much as i can to have her even though it's a mess at times

again im so so sorry if u had to read thru this but if u did thank you anyway i hope ur doing well and please be safe sending lots of love and hugs your way <333

helow!!!

halow agen welcome to this corner i make just for u. come sit. i have fruit and markers; we can scribble on the canvas and talk.

my bestfriend once told me that you’re allowed to feel things in waves. i think issa nice thing to tell u bc it’s a nice reminder that u are very allowed to feel things as them come, and let them go once they go. angry or happy. loved or hurt. u love them, u hate them. just feel it all.

and PLSSSSL i understand the coming out thingy 🥲🥲🥲 esp the religious family part!!!! i truly hope all the best for u.

haiz love is a headache to deal with. i hope as u talk ab things and feel them, you’ll imagine you’re holding onto a marker and drawing a couple of waves. you can pause and take the pen off the paper. draw it squiggly or stick straight. bendy or flawless. blotchy ink, zigzaggy, or smooth stroke. change the color if u want. blue if u okais and red if u arent.

when u felt what you felt and finished your piece i hope you’ll see that what you drew is still in the shape of a wave. ride it out and know that after every raging sea is a gentle wave that can maybe rock u to sleep and rest.

love and share stories w ur mom when u want then retreat somewhere quiet and safe when u feel hurt. (or talk to them if u want/if ur ready)

either ways, i will sit with u in this corner and patiently watch you draw the waves until the skies clear and some form of clarity comes.

here’s a hug and a marker 🫂🖌( issa brush emoji we have been robbed of a marker emoji )
