me desperately trying to get into the humanities classes i need to graduate as an engineering major (most of them are full and those that aren't still have major restrictions)
#like listen i get why humanities courses are necessary for engineering students#hell i encourage and support it#but im having so much trouble getting into the art classes for my “pathway”#because rpi couldn't just say “take x electives” noooo#they all need to be related#but god im so tired of it ive been trying to get in#got off the waitlist for drawing once but that was a bad semester schedule#really regretting it now i shouldve just dropped thermo and taken drawing#cause of COURSE all of my pathway is locked behind basic drawing#and of course i got the wrong day for registration so it was completely full by the time i logged in#im like third on the waitlist so well see what happens#at least i hope im still on the waitlist bc the portal stopped showing my position#ugh#i really don't want to switch my pathway everything else has essays i hate essays#at least senior year will be 90% electives bc im a stubborn idiot and have been replacing actual electives with major related stuff#because after next semester i literally have TWO more major related classes#well at least senior year will be light#maybe they'll actually let me into an art class#hey a gal can dream#otherwise imma need four philosophy classes to make up for it#gotta love how im expected to sift through tons of daily newsletters and school store promos to find one bit of info#like bestie i am doing an internship i am not thinking about rpi#still don't even know if i have housing next semester they said end of november so who tf knows

At least I could disable the suggestions but just... I'm sick of it, I'm sick of companies trying to think for me
I'd rather be miserable but doing shit my own way than placid and glass eyed and just taking whatever companies tell me to
Like... literally just asking what I get out of writing a post on tumblr... zero suggestions, just letting me say whatever dumb stuff comes to my head
#the problem is that doing things my way is actually working well; it's just really slow and it's coming from a bad starting point#everything that makes me miserable was even more miserable growing up#you maybe see me and think that I'm doing really horribly; and that may be true; but I'm also truthfully at my peak right now#and frankly as much as I worry about it A LOT; I'm kinda still on the rise in a lot of ways#...I just take way too long to do things; I want to be quicker because a lot of this stuff isn't... it's not being slow and steady#it's being depressed and having trouble working on shit#but... when I do stuff my way the end result tends to be strong#I got a house in 2019 for instance... like in that economy; I feel like that counts as a pretty high roll outcome; you know?#the parts of my life I hate are all... it's like Marley in the Christmas Carol; I've got all these chains around me#and... about 80% of those chains are just my mom or my mom's choices... she blows through so much money all the time#it makes me want to die#but all that shit... it's the past haunting me and drowning me#but shit's better than it was and... I have more friends now that I did in the past; I'm closer to making money than I've been in the past#(part of it is that I kinda want to get shit stabilized in the household; be doing stuff like cooking before I try and sell shit)#(also understand that everyone in high school liked me... we just never saw each other outside of school)#(so it was a situation where I had 'friends'; by that standard everyone at school was a friend)#(but I didn't have a single person I was close with and I was totally isolated in a crowd)#(friend is just a word in english that has to cover a really really wide range of relationships)#(but these days I do have actual friends... just a shame none of us live in the same town... or even state; you know?)#(I like all the people I went to high school with; they all cared a lot and were very bad at it)#(couldn't figure out that like... just give me some company; that's a good 80% of what I'm lacking)#(...I think part of it was they were all stoners and I wasn't; so they felt like... eh... like something something)#(and when I say all stoners I mean... I think... easily 80% of the school; probably 90% and maybe higher were all stoners)#(it uh... was not an easy thing for the staff; cause they obviously all knew; but... figuring out how to best handle it)#(like hell; I wouldn't want to deal with that)#(also like 95% were smokers... you have to understand that most of these kids were rich kids)#(off the top of my head I can only think of 2 other kids who were poor... just... uh...)#(if I named the city the school was in; you'd probably be like 'oh... makes sense')#(I liked everyone there; everyone liked me... just... they were very bad at just basic stuff like spending time together)#(eh... you don't need to hear more)

hello there, wanting your opinion on some r, s and j stuffs... what kind of modern day music do you think they'd like, maybe if they lived in this day and age?? any albums, artists, just songs, specific genres,how do they listen to it... take your pick lol (I'm of the opinion s is a walkman kinda guy TO THIS DAY)
(no pressure ofcc )
hi!! good question but unfortunately i dont have a very good answer..i think a combination of never having thought about them/written them in a modern day setting and also not really keeping up with much modern music myself makes this difficult for me to answer i really cant think of much because it feels so odd to pair them up with modern stuff...j maybe some sam fender some fontaines dc and stuff...early arctic monkeys...the strokes mac demarco declan mckenna..j would frequent reading and leeds thats the kind of guy he is xx and he would use spotify but not in a very organised way hes got maybe three playlists. r for me is the one with the walkman fussing over audio quality and stuff collecting CDs etc. and since i dont believe hes got a modern mobile phone he most definitely doesnt have spotify..as for what hes listening to well thats hard. can i call belle and sebastian modern? ill go with them..i really dk what else he simply wasnt made for these times. the most modern i can go is like blur and elliott smith and theyre still not modern..s is hard too i genuinely cant think of anything to be honest. its the stranglers or nothing for that guy i fear

The Diary of Penny Polendina
The other day I was inspired to try working on a different NeverFell Projects installment, one that would probably be a lot shorter and quicker to write, because it's not like I care that deeply about Penny, right??
Well, I was incredibly wrong. ^^; So wrong that I'm actually having trouble with this story now...essentially, Penny goes through a bit of a 'rebellious phase' (gross oversimplification, but that's all you get for now) and there are, surprisingly, a lot of aspects of that character arc that I want to explore. Plus, a pivotal connection with Pyrrha, the climax of which I haven't quite figured out yet...
God only knows if I'll be able to finish, or if I'll just write the first 2/3rds of the story and leave it at that. But I figured I might as well warm up by talking about the designs. ^^
Penny's new look is basically 'Disney's Pinocchio, color picked from Arthur Watts' character design'~
I didn't necessarily want her to look evil, just...bolder. Like she specifically picked 'daring' items that maybe her father or Ironwood's PR team would rather she didn't wear, at least not compared to the more innocent frilly pastels she had on before. Between the chest window, midriff, and short sleeves, she's actually showing a lot more skin than before, despite still being 90% covered up. ^^;
Those multicolored wrist accessories are prototype weapons invented by Dr. Watts, that mix and pressurize Dust from the cartridges to cast "artificial magic". This way I get to do a bit of the 'Winter Maiden Penny' stuff in this Vol. 3-locked AU~
Penny's magic usage is one of the things that stumped me when writing this story...In NeverFell, magic isn't just glowy rainbow lasers or weather powers-- it essentially allows the user access to any conceivable semblance at any time; its potential is limitless. Being a beginner, Penny would probably just come up with one signature 'spell' to use in tandem with her Floating Array...but I can't decide what I want her to do. ^^; I think I'd like for her to do something connected to dance, because I feel like that's something unique to her, the way she dances with her weapons before striking. Nobody ever points out how the "robot" in the cast is the one who chooses to spend energy on unnecessary movements that aren't even used to maneuver around an enemy; they're just cute and fun. ^^ I think that's a great encapsulation of who Penny is~
Redesigning Pyrrha is always super difficult, because her original design is so perfect. But I like this end result a LOT. ^^ I may need to adjust the pant legs a bit, but overall it feels like a very believable alt outfit that keeps the spirit of the character.
Pyrrha is another one of the stumbling blocks in this story, because I'm now forced to create at least one malleable personality trait for her-- i.e. one that isn't intrinsically tied to Jaune and/or the plot. Something that she could actually take into a meaningful relationship with a different character... I had the idea to expand her "I'm sorry!" gag into a real guilt complex, where she has trouble letting go of instances where she's made mistakes or hurt someone. In this case, dismembering Penny 1.0 and essentially ending her life. :T She seeks out 2.0 in a desperate effort to make things right, and ends up helping her with ...things, and growing as people or whatever, and all that other stuff I have yet to write. ^^;
I just realized that Pyrrha could use her polarity semblance to pull Penny towards her in a situation where they need to reach each other...that's so cute. ^^ I gotta remember that~

Skully headcanons (both general and relationship stuff)
The parts with the reader are gender neutral, also there is a point that could be considered nsfw I think but it's really just general stuff so nothing much really.
-English isn't my first language so sorry if there are errors and other stuff that simply ain't right and I hope you enjoy :)
Tumblr media
+So first of all we know that he isn't from the world that hosts Halloween town, meaning he doesn't dress like that... probably. Personality wise I'd say that he only has energy when he is 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 excited about something, usually a topic that he really likes, but other than that he'd probably be kind of laid back. Like the Kaworu Nagisa type of laid back, he talks and stuff, nods and smiles but doesn't really express emotions in a really... 𝘴𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘺 (this phrase makes sense in my head please bare with me).
+Now I fully believe that he probably dresses in two ways, no in between. We can have the fancy version of him, probably on those days where he feels motivated enough to wear something nice, and those are the only times where he wears some type of goth outfit, then we have the 𝘶𝘴𝘶𝘢𝘭 version of him, the one where he's probably wearing a random cardigan with the most hideous Halloween design anyone's ever seen in their entire live. You know those 90s cardigans, the hand knitted ones with the different patterns randomly sprinkled on the base, yeah, those beauties.
+Now let's be sincere, he's probably autistic. He seems to not really understand "standard" social cues, like when he kisses everyone's hand and they are basically disgusted, also when in Halloween town he hugs grim and Epel(?) just because of how excited he is and they are 𝘤𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘺 dying inside but he doesn't even seem to notice lol. Now the most noticeable part is also the one where he only talks about Jack and the related festivity, it literally feels like a special interest, the kind that sticks with you for all your life and you can't really get out of your sistem. Also we know that no one really likes him or talks to him in his real world, which is unfortunately the reality of many neurodivergent people, often considered weird or annoying by others. I mean all the neurodivergent people I've met always had similar experiences, me included so yeah, I mean he also basically states that so.
+With this said I imagine him to be the type of person that tries to keep his interests to himself but fails horribly every time someone gets close enough and he thinks he can finally open himself up. Now we all know how that would end (not in a nice way) , meaning that he probably hides himself in the realities from different books and movies he likes. I firmly believe that the reason he was so happy to finally be in Halloween town was because he imagined so many times to live there without the trouble of other negative people that he felt as if he actually belonged somewhere for once.
+Now since this is getting depressing I'd say that if he had a partner he would probably need someone that either shares the same type of interests as him or simply has enough time to listen to him rant about his hyperfixations. I'd say that the first one would probably still be better because he'd feel as if someone finally understands him and gets why he likes certain things so much.
+Probably collects weird and creepy things, could be old stuff he found in a thrift shop or taxidermies he made himself or bought from some shop on Etsy lol. I see him as the type of guy to yes, love Halloween, but only a certain types of decorations, I mean the old/vintage type would be perfect but if you ever try to get him close to a basic plastic pumpkin (like the basket kind for trick or treat) he would probably start talking in an annoyed and frustrated way about how society ruined the original version of the holiday and stuff like that.
+Type of guy to listen to those long ass YouTube videos with the low quality image as thumbnail that last for more than two hours but include old songs that no one ever listened to, probably including the ones that 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦𝘥 those songs.
+If he actually had a partner he would probably be clingy af, not in an annoying way but like a cat that's always around you way. I don't think that in public he would display that much affection, probably afraid of other people seeing him and judging once again, but when in private he would probably be constantly near you or touching you somehow, be it hugging you when watching a scary movie on the couch or if he's helping cooking something and suddenly you feel him speak in you ear, scaring the shit out of you because he somehow doesn't make any noise when walking.
+Has the worst eye bags you've ever seen in your life, the type that even if you put a red base and then the green and concealer or whatever they 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 fade away. They would probably only make him look good considering that be surely (to me at least so sshhh) wears at least a little eyeliner or eyeshadow. I dont think he was dry lips, even if the og image gives that impression I have a feeling that it's like those cracked type of lipsticks that you put on in layers and stuff.
+One again, if you share interests he would probably sing various tunes with you, be it the songs form the nightmare before Christmas or things like confrontation form the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde musical. I can see him dramatically move around his room while singing a certain part and then looking at you like you hung the starts in the sky when you start singing the next part, even if you suck it doesn't matter really.
+I don't think that he's asexual but at the same time I don't think he'd be really interest in sex stuff anyway, like maybe sometime but more like vanilla things, he doesn't even look like he has the energy to keep up any fancy type of performance let's be fr. Would kiss you and whatever, sometimes make out if you have the time and actually feel like doing something like that, but generally I don't think that he would care much about there things.
+Probably has a pet, not sure which one but the possibilities are: a cat, more cats, rats (named Jack and Sally obvs) or some type of ferret. Not really a dog type of person even if he likes Zero. He probably doesn't have the energy to keep up with an animal like that even if he wants to.

More fun Calvin and Hobbes facts!
Not only is Hobbes NOT an imaginary friend by word of the comic's creator, Bill Watterson, but he doesn't seem to know what an imaginary friend is, nor that plush toys in general are actually toys; Susie Derkins (a girl Calvin has complicated feelings about and tends to randomly alternate between prosecuting a rivalry between the two of them and seeming to regard her as a friend or at least someone he bothers talking to) has a plush bunny she calls Mr Bun, and Hobbes at one point notes with some concern that he seems comatose.
The comic was well known for its lavish backgrounds, and two chiefly notable examples include the woods around Calvin's house and the landscapes of his imagination; in the former, he and Hobbes often go exploring, sledding or racing around on a little red wagon, often while expressing philosophical insights (usually ending in Calvin crashing into something in a way that underscores the point of the dialogue).
On that above note, in the latter case, Calvin often imagines elaborate and fanciful settings such as alien worlds, and the tone of a lot of these vary between comedic bits of Calvin pestering people by shooting them with darts while his fantasy portrays him as a space hero fighting horrible blobby creatures.
Calvin And Hobbes probably wasn't the FIRST comic strip to follow then-current paleontological debates and scientific course, but it was written at the exact right time of increasing interest in dinosaurs as public consciousness accepted the image of them as clever, quick-moving and fierce creatures instead of the slow-moving brutes doomed to die out from earlier perspectives; while the comic initially did depict them as something akin to retrosaurs, this died away very quickly and the comic was an entry point for becoming a Dinosaur Kid for a lot of people i think
There is often a division between the vibrantly illustrated worlds of Calvin's imagination against the much more dull visuals of school he has to deal with; he frequently has trouble with his school work, he's EXTREMELY prone to acting out and causing mischief at school, and school is often portrayed as a dull, exhausting and tiring thing he hates above everything else. His fantastical worlds are fun and lovingly illustrated; the world he has to actually deal with is at best tiring.
Hobbes is essentially his only friend. Calvin doesn't really seem to want to deal with other people at all (he seems to find it difficult at best and the few times he does, he comes off as out of his depth and uncertain). While he pesters Susie at the best of times, she is also notably the ONLY person he goes out of his way to talk to at all, and some of his comments to her are strongly revealing.
Calvin himself is an EXTREMELY intelligent kid, often discussing deeply philosophical stuff, and its frequently brought up that no one knows why he struggles with schoolwork as much as he does. At one point Susie even raises the question and he gloomily replies that he finds his life is easier if he lets everyone's expectations for him be as low as possible. Interpretations have ranged from him being an undiagnosed kid on the autistic spectrum (not unlikely, given this was written from the mid 80s to mid 90s) to simply reflecting the anxieties of school for many kids of the era.
This strip exists:

Can you do a set of headcanons of Dallas with a perfectionist reader? Like someone who stresses out before a test or beats themself up when they get a bad grade (and it's not even a bad grade, it's just slightly lower then they thought they'd get.)
A/N: Oh I liked this one. I liked it a lot- thanks for the request! Sorry it took so long!
Tumblr media
I wrote this during my anatomy class instead of paying attention, so yeah! Hope this turns out well, I hope you guys like it-
I’m gonna do general headcanons for this one?
I’ll definitely include the scenario you gave me, but I think I’ll have more talk about this way-
In general, Dally really couldn’t give less of a crap about going to school and he honestly thinks you’re kind of a weirdo for stressing out so much about the grades you’re bringing home
He just doesn’t see the point to it, ya know? Like he’s basically a dropout, I bet you he never really goes to school anymore, so he really just can’t wrap his head around why it gets you so dialed up
He’s very unhelpful when it comes to your studies
That’s all.
He’s just unhelpful.
When you’re studying? He’ll purposely shuffle up your papers, steal your pencils, mix up your stuff and just generally be a little nuisance
He does it cause he gets bored when you’re not paying attention to him so ya know, good luck getting yourself out of that mess with him, that behavior really isn’t going anywhere anytime soon
Dal’s absolutely astounded by your grades though- all those 100s and high 90s?
That’s miles ahead of what he was getting when he was still in school and it seems like you do it so easily, just like getting good grades is in your nature
Which, ya know, circles back to kick you in the butt because the minute you bring home something in the low 90s, high 80s range, your world is absolutely wrecked and Dallas doesn’t understand at all
When you start to go bonkahs though, and run yourself into the ground just because you got one question wrong, that’s where Dally kind of steps in and really calls you out on it
He’s going to say that you’re being ridiculous and he means it, he genuinely thinks that you’re being ridiculous because why does one missed question mean so much anyway??
You guys have a big argument of course, because the one thing you should never do is tell a perfectionist that they don’t have to be perfect
So you guys fight and you sulk off to your respective places before comes back, not to properly apologize, but to take you out to the diner or drive-in or something as a faux apology
He still thinks you get a little bit ridiculous about your grades, but now he’s smart enough not to run his mouth off about it, he does get mad though if you refuse a date because you have to study, Dal, I’m sorry
Insert Mr. Winston saying whatever, if you’re studying at home, I’m just gonna sneak in your window and claim that it’s a study date
Let’s just say…studying can get very…hands on…when Dally decides he’s going to crash your lesson cramming sessions 
Don’t think too hard about the phrase cramming sessions because I am NOT getting in trouble for that one but ya know….heh-
ANYWAY
Dal calls you a nerd, a bookworm, a dork, a geek, but mah boy will not hesitate to throw down if someone else calls you those things
Dallas, admittedly a little bit of a bully, does not like it when other people try and mess with you, so boy’s got you covered
I can definitely see him trying to get you to skip school, especially if he’s fresh out of the cooler or reform or something and honestly? He just wants to spend time with you, and it hurts his feelings a little when you’d rather go to school
It’s all about that perfect attendance, okay? All about that attendance record-
But maybe your last period never takes attendance anyway and maybe Dallas just so happens to be waiting outside and you just maybe get your best friend to cover for you so you can skip one class to go out with him <3
Overall?
I can see this dynamic working, at least for a little while-
Despite the fights that are bound to occur, Dallas does enjoy you being a genius and he’ll brag about you to the gang, telling Darry he needs to start hanging your report cards up on that old fridge
Dallas does his best to keep you from driving yourself to burnout and I’ve got this mental scene of you trying to teach him something you’re working on and he just kind of cuts you off in the middle of talking to give you a kiss because he hasn’t been listening to you for the past five minutes but his eyes have been locked on your lips and he’s pretty sure that he doesn’t know the answer but he knows he wants to kiss you real bad-

It's been confirmed, I believe in Joe Hendry <3
Tumblr media
Summary: The reader comes back to NXT after a month-long hiatus, dealing with some family stuff. Her first night back, the reader becomes captivated by one of Ava's new guys, on loan from TNA for a few weeks.
Tumblr media
You make your way through the backstage area down at the NXT filming location for the first time in over a month. Having made this walk a million times before, you weave through the halls while catching up on a couple of texts Ava and Shawn have sent you.
You finally make it to the office and are greeted by an eager Ava as soon as you're through the door. "YN!" Ava greets you. "How are you? I am so glad that you're back!" She hugs you.
"Aw, I missed you too, Ava." You giggle and pocket your phone so you can hug Ava back. "It's good to be back, Ava. I missed work." You admit.
Ava lets you free from her embrace and begins catching you up on what you've missed this past month. She informs you that tonight a few of TNA's top male stars are on the show for a special battle royale.
"That's amazing, Ava." You praise her for her hard work. "Is the showing starting off with this battle royale?" You ask her.
"Yeah." Ava nods. "Come on, we can go down and watch from the curtain." She nods toward the door.
You agree and the two of you head down to the curtain. Ava chats with you about a couple more things that you need to be caught up on while you walk, but it doesn't take long for the two of you to arrive to your destination.
Some of your usual NXT superstars pass by once you and Ava arrive, and a couple of them wave at you. You smile at each of them, happy to be back on the job.
You are about to turn back to Ava and ask her about who she thinks is going to win the battle royale when someone catches your eye. Your gaze fixates on a handsome blond man with a dashing smile and puppy dog eyes as he passes by you and Ava.
"Ava, who is that?" You nudge Ava on the shoulder.
"Hmm?" Ava cranes her neck to see who you were ogling. "Oh, Joe Hendry?" She answers you. "He's one of the new TNA guys. Super popular over there."
You nod and ignore your heart's quickening pace. You and Ava settle in and turn your attention to the monitors on the wall. Your heart flutters in your chest again when Hendry strolls out onto the ramp with a microphone in hand.
"He's a Scot?" You ask Ava, your eyes sparkling with wonderment when Joe starts talking.
"Yep," Ava confirms and notices the look of intrigue written on your face.
Joe does eventually make it out to the ring and the battle Royale begins. Joe lasts about a solid 60 seconds before 90% of the other participants all toss him out of the ring.
"Wow." You comment. "Well, that was a short-lived performance." You joke with Ava.
Ava giggles and the two of you go back to watching the match. Je'von Evans ends up winning the Royale, so you and Ava wait to congratulate him. Je'von comes through the curtain and Ava greets him with a warm smile. You match her smile but get distracted when Joe pops up as well, looking less than pleased about things.
You glance his way and the two of you lock eyes. Your heart skips another beat as Joe starts heading over to you.
"Mr. Hendry." You greet Joe when he makes it to your side. "It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm, YN. Ava's partner and co-gm of NXT." You introduce yourself with professionalism.
"Pleasure is all mine, sweetheart." Joe grins at you. "I'll admit. I didn't expect NXT to have such beautiful women running the show." He compliments you. "I'm a huge fan of having women in charge. Makes things run so much smoother."
You laugh and shake your head. You've dealt with plenty of flirts in your time as NXT gm. But this Joe Hendry guy is trouble if you've ever seen it in a man.
"Thank you, Joe." You smile at him.
The tension in the air is palpable as you and Joe chat for a minute. Those puppy dog eyes of his drink in your body like you're the only person in the world. He licks his lips as his gaze returns to meet yours and you find yourself struggling to find something to say.
"YN?" Ava pops up at your side after dismissing Je'von and sets a hand on your shoulder. "How are you and Joe getting on?" She asks you. "And Joe, how are you liking NXT so far? I imagine you're a bit upset about being the first one out of the battle royale?" She asks Joe.
"Ah, it's no sweat, darlin'." Joe shrugs. "I'm used to being the underdog. Anyway, I'll let you two ladies get back to being in charge." He steps back, gaze back to being fixed on you again. "I'll be seeing you girls around."
Ava nods and you notice Joe flash you a wink as he walks off. You and Ava head back to the office and fall into catching up on work while the rest of the show runs its course.
"So," Ava prompts you while the two of you are working on your own stuff in the office. "You and Joe Hendry?" She grins at you.
"Ava." You roll your eyes playfully. "We had one conversation. That's it." You insist.
Ava giggles and looks at you over her laptop screen. "Sure, except you were totally eye-fucking him from the moment you saw him." She teases you.
"Was not!" You protest.
"Hey, I'm not judging, YN." Ava replies. "The guy is a total hottie." She admits.
You look up from your laptop at Ava and narrow your gaze at her. "He's a little old for you, Ava. Don't you think? Plus, don't you already have a boyfriend?"
"Okay!" Ava laughs. "Geez, YN, I'll back up off your man." She jokes with you.
You roll your eyes at Ava's antics and go back to what you're doing. The two of you finish up work and head out of the office for the week. You dig through your bag looking for your keys on your way out of the building, making a mental note of some stuff you'll need to get done before next week's episode of NXT.
You step out of the building and out to the parking lot where your car is parked. And as soon as the door shuts behind you, a sweet accent graces your ears.
"Well well well, how lucky am I? Running into you again, sweetheart?" Joe approaches you from his waiting spot a few feet from the door.
"I think I'm the lucky one here, Mr. Hendry." You reply with an amused smile. "Were you waiting for me?" You ask him.
Joe shrugs and saunters over to you. "Maybe," He licks his lips in a teasing manner. "I'm only in town for a couple of days. So why not take advantage of the situation and enjoy myself, right?" He explains.
"Oh?" You quip. "And how do you plan on enjoying your time here, Mr. Hendry?" You ask him.
"I can think of a few ways." Joe replies with a suggestive grin. "And please, you can call me, Joe, sweetheart." He adds.
You nod, loving the game you're playing with Joe right now. "Well, Joe." You smile at him, putting emphasis on his name. "I'm headed out for a bite to eat. You're welcome to join if you'd like." You offer.
"I'd love too." Joe agrees. "Just lead the way, darling."
Early the next morning and you are yet to go to sleep. The sun is starting to rise again, sunlight streaming into your bedroom from the window.
Sweat covers your body like a thin veil, your legs trembling involuntarily from overexertion all night long. Your bare chest rises and falls at a rapid pace, your moans muffled by the hand over your mouth. Your neighbors are usually getting up for work at this time, and you'd hate to let them hear your moans of pleasure through the thin walls of your apartment.
"Fuck, Joe." You let out a shaky breath.
"Yeah, sweetheart?" Joe's head pops up from between your shaky legs, his chin resting on your stomach gently.
Those adorable puppy dog eyes peer up at you with pure lust and adoration as he waits for you to ask your question. "My phone, please?" You beg, tired of listening to it buzz against the wooden floorboard from inside your discarded pants pocket.
Joe frowns, but fetches your phone from your pants and hands it over to you before returning to his comfortable place between your legs. You switch your phone on just as another call comes through. You choke as you read the caller ID. Triple H.
"Hunter! Hello! Good morning, sir!" You cough and frantically answer the phone.
"Good morning, YN. Sorry to call you so early." Hunter answers you. "But I have a couple of questions that I need answered sooner rather than later." He explains.
You bite your lip and card your free hand through Joe's hair, attempting to push him away from you while you're on the phone. "Of course, what can I do for you, sir?" You ask Hunter.
"It's regarding Joe Hendry from TNA." Hunter explains, and your breath catches in your throat.
"Joe Hendry?" You glance downwards at the man of the hour now looking at you with a shit-eating grin before going back to peppering the inside of your thighs with kisses. "What about him, sir?"
Hunter clears his throat, taking his sweet time to reply. And every second he takes a reply is agonizing torture for you. "We're thinking about getting Mr. Hendry contracted over to NXT for a few more shows." Hunter explains. "The crowd really seemed to like him last night. NXT drew a larger audience than normal bases off of just rumors. So we'd like to capitalize on that." He adds.
"Excellent idea, sir." You agree while also attempting to muffle a whimper. "How can I help?" You ask Hunter, eager to get this conversation over with.
"I'd like you to talk with Mr. Hendry and coordinate with him while he's on loan from TNA." Hunter informs you. "I'll email you the details later." He adds.
You bite the inside of your lip again, squirming under Joe's electric touch. "Will do, sir, I'll look out for it." You assure Hunter.
Hunter thanks you and finally hangs up the phone. You drop your phone from your hand as soon as the call ends and let out a sound that's a mix of a sigh of relief and a moan.
"So, looks like I'll be sticking around for a while, then?" Joe rises up and towers over you with a grin.
"Fuck, I hate you." You cover your face with your hands.
Joe grins and leans down, peppering your neck and chest with kisses "That's not what you've been saying all night long, sweetheart." He whispers against your skin.
You let out another sigh of content, knowing that this is about to be a long but very fun next few weeks.

Omg a Sannah enjoyer, are u even real cuz people tend to forget them so much 😭
Can you tell us your opinion about them???? Like everything u think about them, either before or after the twins went missing???? Thanks!!!
Tumblr media
'At some point on the night of Feb 2nd, 2014, the liquor is flowing and the music is bumping. These two introverted gals are having a little gossip sesh to the side....'
-
Woah woah woah woah woah ..... say less. The underrepresentation of this ship in the fandom is cray cray so here are some more headcanons I have for them!!
My overall opinion, they are so lovely and have so much potential 🥺 I am simply a sucker for best friends to lovers and I'm sold each and every time it is fed to me. That being said, the complexity of Sam's feelings for the Washingtons is my personal special interest...
I like to think that some of these confusing feelings she held for her best friend may have transferred over to that friend's older brother following her disappearance.... thus birthing Josh/Sam.
That is a completely different post, none the less I thought I'd mention it here 👀
These hcs will be about the prologue and leading up to the trip where the prank happened.... mayhaps gonna lead into another headcanon post I'm working on so stay tuned!!
Juicy stuff below the cut ↴
God Hannah was SO excited for this trip. There wasn't anything especially out of the ordinary about plans for the gathering, but she just had this feeling in her gut. Something big was going to happen. It filled her with anticipation.
She couldn't contain her giddiness and constantly texted Sam about her excitement leading up to the day. It made Sam feel a bit better about the upcoming get-together.
Sam had been having some anxiety surrounding the latest trip. She had started to notice some... red flags, let's say; amongst some of the people in her friend group and worried about spending a weekend with them and the trouble that could arise.
She wouldn't tell Hannah these concerns, especially seeing her excitement at the mere mention of the get-together her and her siblings were planning. Hannah already struggled a bit in these larger social situations and seeing her light up at the prospect of one was a positive thing in Sam's mind.
Of course, 90% of the discussions about Hannah's excitement centered around Mike's presence and the things she hoped she would get to do with Mike....
Sam tried so very hard to shove a lot of those anxious heartache feelings away. She did not want to find out where they were coming from. Let alone threaten to entertain them.
She tried drawing and sketching the group to ease her nerves when simply partaking in the substances brought to the party wasn't enough to take her mind off things.
The first portrait she drew from the group was Hannah's
She couldn't seem to get Hannah off her mind that night.... despite all of the shenanigans and craziness all around from everyone
The combination of nerves and seeking a distraction got Sam thoroughly sauced and out of it, keeping her glued to her sketchbook until she started noticing things happening around her... whispers and glances in her direction...
She finally picked up on the group's plan to pull some kind of "prank", catching a sly remark from Emily and Jess as they discussed the contents of their written note.
Sam's hazy mind eventually pieced together who their intended target was, trying to sort out her jumbled thoughts...
TBC......

I just think that the main barrier to being good at a lot of different things isn't about that you couldn't be good at it, it's about time, and it's about affording equipment and materials
It's gonna be a lot harder to find the time for even one hobby if you're working full time, and make no mistake, there's a real problem of getting what you need to actually work on stuff
#that's why if I ever did make videos about carving; I think I'd try to stick to just my knife and my gouge; cause that's 90% of what I use#one carving knife and a medium sized flat gouge will do a lot for you; I like my skew and such; but those two are what I need#I even have a feeling you could get by with an exacto (not nearly as good; but the point would be budget)#not sure what you'd use for the gouge#but if I did do videos I might look into it; would be kind of nice to be able to say 'it's not what I'd do; but he's a broke technique'#like... part of why I would only want to put out free stuff and no like... paid courses (which are fine)#is cause I'm used to being broke; that's who I want to help out; the poor fools like me#cause even people I like with woodworking on youtube who are about doing it on a budget... they still say to drop a fair bit of mint on it#and that's more for furniture making; but... love to do that some day too#and you know how I talk about stuff you know making it easier to do other stuff; there's a lot I think I could tackle with my knife#like... I'd like to once again kind of challenge myself if I did get into that#like what can I make with a dirt cheap saw; an exacto; and whatever I find for a gouge#how cheap can I make this to do?#And can I make it something they can do even if they don't have space?#like can I make it so they could do it over carpet if need be so long as they vacuum?#how unideal can I make things and still have it work? cause I think a lot of us are in very unideal circumstances#and to an extent who I most want to teach are the people who are like I was; in many ways still am#no really money making skills; trouble working for whatever reason; just kind of screwed#and I want to be able to say 'I can't promise you this'll work; but I've made it simple enough maybe you can try it'#'and I'm not saying you'll make money; but at least it's something; and at least it might be fun'#like... I can't recommend woodburing; that kit cost at least $100; think more like $200#that's not cash people have just lying around#I get that even asking to spend like... $5 on a saw; $5 on a blade; $5 on a gouge; and $5 on wood... even if I got it that cheap#I get that sometimes $20 is a big ask#I want to be able to say 'I'm not telling you it'll be your masterpiece; or you might not want to upgrade some of this stuff'#'but here's how you can go to some damn mega corp hardware store and come out with enough stuff to do this with little cash'#hard enough to get started on stuff; I want to lower the barrier to entry to as close to zero as I can#course... that means me getting more of my shit together; mean me building furniture and stuff#can carve at this point of course; though haven't in some time cause gotta get that commission out#not saying I make amazing stuff either; or that I know if I can teach at all

I feel like we, as a fandom, should generate more Dick Grayson and Duke Thomas fanart/content where they have long hair.
Give me Dick Grayson babysitting Lian and letting her braid and play with his long, curly hair because she thought it was pretty and by the time Roy gets back, Dick is already teaching her how to do her own hair (in braids, ponytail, etc) in ways that are both comfortable, stylish and steady (he's a vigilante, he'll know how to keep his hair in place while running and stuff).
Give me Duke who just decided to try and grow out his hair, but is having trouble styling it/keeping it out of his eyes, because it's more big/heavy afro curls (rather than the long flowy/wavy/gentle curls I imagine on Dick) and he's yet to feel confident enough in his place in the Batfam, so he doesn't tell Bruce.
But then Dick notices, sits his little light down and starts doing his hair in either box or knotless braids that he learned to do while dating Kory.
The next day they go shopping together and Dick takes him to all the stores he can think of that sell products that fit Duke's hair type so that they can see, review and compare everything and find out what Duke likes best and helps his hair the most.
Bruce who wants to gift his new son something nice and sentimental after finalizing his adoption and him seeing how much he's into hair products and stuff lately, so he does some research and takes Duke on a fun day out where he can do and buy whatever he wants and at the end of the day, he gives him a small box filled with golden braid charms, majority of which are signal themed, few are Batman/Batfam (as in the other kids vigilante personas) themed and the rest are just regular charms that Bruce thought he might like.
Robin Jason who adored his new big brother was actually close with him, they sometimes got ready for patrol together and Dick showed him how he changes small parts of his appearance so that no one recognizes him (something he later on does for all his siblings, regardless of whether or not they actually need it), one of which is obviously his hair.
Adult Jason who sometimes does his big brother's hair before patrol, or a gala and Dick is just too tired to get ready, because it brings back good, fond memories he has of his childhood, Dick letting him because it's nostalgic and he missed this.
Bruce learning how to care for and style different types of hair because he just got this circus child who refuses to go to the hairdresser for whatever reason, so now he has to braid his hair so that his newly acquired child doesn't end up with lice.
Duke who learned that you can't trust 90% of hairdressers when it comes to curly hair (this one is me speaking from personal experience) and isn't going to take a trip out of Gotham every couple of weeks to get his hair done. So instead he goes to Dick whenever he needs/wants to redo and/or change his braids and apparently Alfred already knows how to cut and care for all hair types and is definitely more trustworthy than any business owner in Gotham, so he goes to him whenever he needs a haircut, which has become a rare need nowadays.

Alright, that post got a little more than ten notes. Here we go: Lazer's timkon babies.
First there's Wendy, she's the oldest. She's a clone. Tim was trying to bring back Kon then bam, Wendy. (There might be a time skip between events, like when the cloning attempt was successful it might've been a few years before Tim and Kon met Wendy and all while she's still a baby.)
Her full name is Gwendolyn Martha Drake-Kent. Don't call her Gwendolyn, she hates it when that happens. Especially when she associates it when her dads are mad at her cuz she's in big trouble
She mainly looks like Kon. She has his curly hair, alien blue eyes, his sun-kissed skin, etc. However I imagine she has Tim's smile. Kon is immediately reminded of Tim whenever Wendy smiles.
She has all kryptonian abilities. They started showing up when she was about 8 or 9. Kon taught her how to fly when she was ten.
As she got older she began to pick up a few hobbies. Like, she enjoys playing volleyball and she can also sing and play bass.
I'd like to think as she gets older she dresses more and more like Kon. She has a lot of piercings, she dresses in a more 90's style, just stuff like that.
There's also Evangeline Drake-Kent aka Evie, Wendy's younger sister
Wendy and Evie are four years apart, with Wendy as the older one.
Evie is a surrogate baby. I'd like to imagine Cassie was the one who carried her.
She's a lot more like Tim. She's more reserved and more introverted. She has Tim's eyes and hair color but she has wavy hair (it borders on wavy to the point you could call it curly) and tanned skin (she's not as dark as Wendy and Kon tho)
She LOVES cats. They're her favorite thing. She could spend hours talking about everything about cats.
Eventually she got a grey cat for her birthday and named it Juniper
When Evie gets older she figures out that she's a lesbian
So she eventually gets a cool alien girlfriend (that's a story for another day)
Powers wise I think she would have TTK or some other telekinetic abilities.
That's all I got feel free to ask questions about them I love talking about them!

However, he couldn't come up with anything that could surpass, "The Legend of King-Ohger," which he himself had written, and was known to everyone in Chikyu. And so, he decided to make a proposal to the 5 kings, who were also his figthing comrades…or so it goes.

The Immovable King and Moffun
A Special photoshoot with Rita Kaniska and Moffun has become a realization! With their mask removed, Rita enters a relaxed mode, and is being healed by and carefully brushing the fur of Moffun.
"Together with Moffun" is a long running animated series that depicts Panpy, a cryptid hunter, meeting the legendary yetis Moffun and living in "Mofu Village." The white, cute and fluffy visuals, the love of humans, and the willingness to be hugged so tightly…The healing nature of Moffun is very popular among both children and adults, and is known to have achieved the highest viewership rating in Ishabana of 90.9%, which is run by Hymeno Ran.
One of the reasons for the love of this series, was the proof of bond between the queen of Ishabana and her people. Having lost her parents in the "Wrath of God" tragedy 15 years ago, Hymeno, who became queen at such a young age, had suffered greatly…It was at this time that the people of Ishabana rose up. They made the show with the hopes that she would smile as much as possible, and Hymeno, who grew up watching it, turned into a wonderful queen and doctor.
Another big fan of this show, which is currently airing all across Chikyu, loves it. It's the King of Gokkan, Rita Kaniska. Rita's "Moffun Love " is becoming apparent to Hymeno, while Rita doesn't show any emotion due to their duty as king…If Moffun's charm, which has won the hearts of the two kings, spreads any further, is it possible…the future of Chikyu could become brighter?!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rita Kaniska
"Even if the earth were to split or the sky falls, Rita Kaniska will not be shaken!"
Hirakawa Yuzuki guesses what's going on in Rita's head! 90% Trials and other work that has to get done 10% Wanting to play with Moffun
My Favorite Point: The Collar "They usually wear a collar that covers their face, so scenes where they show their face are appealing." (-Hirakawa)

"We'll eliminate these pests for a bountiful harvest"
Kaku So guesses what's going on in Kaguragi's head! 75% Toufu 10% The other countries kings 10% Suzume 5% Racules
My Favorite Point: The Furisode's Patterns "I like that the design shows off the various emotions. This costume is a must for Kaguragi!" (-Kaku)

My Favorite Point: The Forehead Makeup Instead of using a sticker, I have the patterns drawn on instead. It's the switch that gets me into the role! (-Ikeda)

Thinking about the "Rise!Mikey being a box turtle has serious effects on his ability to move to a new place after their lair is destroyed" setup and how it might be applicable to more iterations than rottmnt.
Like, we know 2003 & the 90s movies turtles moved house plenty of times (especially 2003. it seemed like they were getting a new lair every week sometimes) throughout their continuities.
Which makes sense! If your enemies have figured out where you live & all of your stuff gets wrecked in the process, the best course of action is to find a new place where that won't happen again (or at least take longer to happen than with the previous place).
And yet, time and time again, the 2012 and 1987 guys go back to the exact same lair and just. rebuild it. (or have it spawned back to normal by the next episode in 1987's case BUT STILL).
There are plenty of reasons for them to go back to the same place rather than find a new one, of course: emotional connection, it's logistically the easiest place to protect that they've found, the animators didn't want to learn how to draw a brand new place after who knows how many seasons of repetition, etc.
But there is so much potential in it being an instinct thing.
The shredder knows where you live.
The aliens actively hunting you down knows where you live.
Everyone you have ever faced has destroyed your home over and over again, using it to their advantage and capturing you all with little to no trouble because, again, they KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE.
This could all be solved just by moving even a couple blocks over to a different sewer canal, but you can't.
You can't even conceptualize it.
Splinter brings it up one time and never again. He can't bring himself to cause those looks a second time.
So you clean up the mess, help Donnie set up new & improved traps and security systems, and pray that this time they're enough to keep them safe.
But they never are.
