[tyhalloweencats]

Hi everyone, welcome to my Beanie Baby side blog!!

Here I'll be posting every Halloween cat beanie baby and some unassorted/other Halloween cat/TY stuff

I'll post any info I have on said babies but keep in mind I'm literally just a person that owns the cats. The majority of the info is going to be from the Beaniepedia or AboutBeanies (wayback link)

All plushies and photos belong to me unless stated otherwise

The blankets I use as a backdrop are from Marshalls

All babies will be tagged with their names, their collection line, year, and "cat" (among other things). Non-cat posts will be "not ty" and/or "not a cat". Posts from other people will be "reblog" and my crap will be tagged "personal"

MY BABIES ARE NOT FOR SALE AND NEVER WILL BE

I also find it funny that fandom will only accept Lyanna being her non-conforming, wild self in the context of saying that Arya isn't meant to be pretty; Any other day we get back-to-back posts about how Lyanna is actually super traditionally feminine cause she sniffled at a song once, so she's actually more like Sansa. Instead of constantly speaking on Arya and Lyanna, how about you guys reflect on why your standards of beauty for women are attached to how well they perform feminity within the patriarchy?

You know. If Crocodad Real. How would Luffy even react if he found out. Like really, how the fuck would he feel about it.

'Cause like how I went over in this post (briefly at the end), we don't even know how Luffy feels about Crocodile as he is right now, so can you imagine how that bombshell would impact things

Like my running theory is that Luffy still hates Crocodile but maybe not quite as much as pre-Impel Down since he kiiinda owes him etc

And Luffy does not seem to give a shit about blood connections, at least not that much. Like don't get me wrong, Luffy's family are the people who were there for him when he was a child, those are the people he cares about and his bio-parents don't really matter. But also, honestly, I think the reason Luffy doesn't give a shit about who his parents are is because he doesn't know them. Luffy cares about people who he knows and likes, and while he doesn't give a shit about Dragon right now, it's arguably because he simply just doesn't know him. If the two actually get to meet and know each other, like if Luffy takes a liking Dragon, he'll probably accept Dragon as his dad and as his family. But on his own terms. It's up to Luffy to decide

And that's why like. How would Luffy react to finding out he has another dad and that one is fucking Crocodile. Because he already hates the man. It would not be happy news for him I'm sure

The other thing is that normally Luffy does not give a flying fuck about people's sad backstories. He didn't care to hear what happened to Nami and her village for example, because what really mattered was that there was a person he cared about who was deeply hurt and in danger and he wanted to help said person. And that's where I'm so torn. Because on one hand, it would be perfectly on-brand for Luffy to not give a shit of Crocodile had a sob story to tell. But also, I could imagine Luffy being so fucking confused over the news that he'd want to hear the truth of like, who what where how why, in detail. So that, you know, he could make his own decision and figure out if he wants to considder Crocodile is other dad or disown him.

Like, both feel like things Luffy would do

So really, would the real deciding factor might be just... the circumstances where Luffy finds out???

God knows, I can not imagine Crocodile himself telling Luffy anything ever. The kid already hates him, he knows it, so he'd probably think it'd be for the best if Luffy never found out

So how else could Luffy find out then?

As far as we know, the only other person who could confirm it would be Dragon himself, and considdering how he probably feels about his ex (see: Alabasta Coup Attempt), I can't imagine him wanting to talk about Crocodile to Luffy in lenght or in a positive light. Like I can't imagine Dragon wanting to tell Luffy at all is the point, not unless he wanted to like apologize to Luffy because it is arguably his fault Luffy and Crocodile fought in Alabasta to near-death to begin with. (Sidenote since we don't know how the break-up happened to begin with, it's totally possible Crocodile could've asked Dragon to never let their kid find out what happened to his "mom")

And now, this is where I'm gonna go completely off the rails, but. As I was wondering if there was any other way Luffy could find out...

S-Croc is made with Crocodile's DNA.

(And actually before I even go into S-Croc, super quick sidenote: If Kuma can extract memories out of people and allow other people to literally see them... Like I can't tell if Kuma's memories got absorbed by Bonney when she looked into them or if Kuma's Memory Bubble is still on Egghead, but if viewing the memories isn't the same as having them inserted into a vessel permanently... Like if Kuma isn't turbo-dead, could there be a scenario where we have Kuma (or S-Bear) yeet out Croc's memories and have Luffy just look into them? Because god knows Crocodile might just refuse to speak about it and that could be the only way to get The Whole Truth if Dragon doesn't want to talk about it either?) (Of course, Crocodile would understand just How Persistent Luffy is so if Luffy just kept on annoying him about it, Crocodile could maybe give up eventually because he knows he can't get Luffy to piss off until he spills the beans)

So currently the Strawhat's plan is for them to go and escort the Vegapunks to Elbaf (if nothing goes funny after the flashback is over, which remains to be seen)

2. There is the mystery of what sex S-Croc is going to be, because there is a possibility that if Crocodile is trans then his Seraphim could be pre-T (though this entirely depends on whether or not Ivankov's HRT changes even the DNA of person. Since it's MAGIC HRT I would prefer it to, not gonna lie, and I would not appreciate any "you may look different but your DNA will tell the truth!" rhetoric in the story but I may be asking too much from Oda)

3. And there's also the mystery of what Devil Fruit ability S-Croc might have, since all the Seraphim have been given Fruit powers, and we know Vegapunk can't replicate Crocodile's Sand Logia.

All things considdered, I think the actual, most likely known ability S-Croc might end up with would be like, Mr 3's wax powers (hilariously), mainly because I could imagine it being flexible enough to work in Crocodile's fighting style, so it'd be the easiest for S-Croc to adapt to (like if you can make anything from wax, then why not sharp blades to fling at people) (Also we know Vegapunk would have access to this power since Mr 3 was in Impel Down, when they also got Daz' powers)

But also I had joked before how it'd be funny if S-Croc was a Crocodile Zoan for no reason. Like it'd be fitting since Crocodile was already the Only Logia of the OG Shichibukai, so making his Seraphim the Only Zoan would be funny as hell (if it's even possible, which we can't say if it will/won't be). Additionally, making him a Crocodile Zoan would be hysterically on-the-nose.

(Sidenote: If there was a crocodile Zoan Fruit, what sub-category do you think it'd fall into? Like would it be Ryu Ryu like all the dinosaur-themed Zoans are, or maybe even a different model of Uo Uo (same as Kaidou)? Since "wani" could be considdered a different type of serpent-dragon, and if Vegapunk was researching how to recreate Kaidou's fruit, it's plausible he might've accidentally recreated some other related-fruit in the process or afterwards?? (Also since Kaidou's Uo Uo is a specific model (Seiryu) it would make sense if there was another Uo Uo model Fruit, and this could be an excelent opportunity to use it))

The thing about Zoans though is that, as it's been brought up once or twice before, Zoan fruits can kind of have a "mind of their own" and influence the user in unexpected ways.

And as all we Crocodad Truthers know.

Crocodiles are protective of their babies.

ALSO: The Seraphim do have enough personal will-power that they may (slightly) disobey orders they've been given. Case-and-point, S-Snake undoing the Petrification on the Strawhats after Luffy asked her to, since S-Snake is fond of Luffy just like Hancock is

Sidenote, it was kind of made a point how Vegapunk considdered his artificial replica of Kaidou's dragon fruit a compete failure simply because instead of a blue dragon, the user would turn into a pink one instead. So if Vegapunk tried to make a Seraphim of Crocodile, knowing full-well he couldn't even give the Seraphim the same ability as the OG, and then the Seraphim turns out the wrong sex for no reason?? I could see him being confused as hell and considder S-Croc "a failed Seraphim"

So really, all we'd really need to happen would be for the Strawhats to somehow encounter the remaining three Seraphim while escorting the Vegapunks to Elbaf. Mind you, IDK how that could even happen since as far as we know they've been deployed the Emptee Bluffs

And then just have S-Croc either disobey orders to hunt Luffy or even even have him be protective of Luffy (following that Zoan Instinct, one even he can't explain, it's just Instinct). Have Sanji be like "hey why the fuck is this one a girl, isn't it supposed to be Crocodile", followed by Vegapunk explaining this Seraphim was a failure for reasons even he can't understand

Then have Jinbei remember the conversation Crocodile and Ivankov had at Impel Down (suspicious considdering Ivankov's abilities and this "failed Seraphim"), and maybe if Crocodile had any involvement with the Revolutionaries and Robin was suspicious of him she could even bring that up

Along with any other minor details that may be bothering the crew about the whole deal

And so if the Strawhats and Vegapunk just put all their braincells together and rubbed them real hard, they could maybe come to a hypothesis as to why S-Croc is a "failure" and protective of Luffy, and maybe even a potential explanation as to why The Real Crocodile was protective of Luffy in Marineford for no fucking reason

And maybe, just maybe, Vegapunk could confirm that suspicion with a DNA test. All he needs to do is check Luffy's and compare it to Crocodile's.

Not sure Luffy would want to do the DNA test, like knowing Luffy he might prefer to just ask Crocodile in person if they ever ran to each other again

But boy, if he somehow did agree to a DNA test, and there was a match... oh boy

But again. This entire scenario is BEYOND off-the-rails. Technically plausible! But honestly if Luffy is ever gonna find out (assuming Crocodad Real) then it's gonna be from Dragon

I just wanted to get the theoretical scenario out of my system okay, I had to get the brainworms out of my brain

genuinely why is there so much misinformation about the guardians of childhood book series?

i don't think i'll ever get over how people treat kids that aren't good in school as worthless no matter what. "oh it can't be that bad" my guy idk how to tell you this but the last time i went to a normal high school the principal called me into his office to brag about how he failed me in all of my classes before the semester was even finished & i should quit while i'm ahead cuz i'm too stupid ("officially" diagnosed as such by a school counselor & a psychiatrist!!) to succeed. & this is considered normal

Pokemon AU Rival Moe calls Alfonse "A Fucking Loser" after he wins and then it either gives him some potions or straight up heals his whole party. Moe wins against Sharena and apologises so sincerely OR Sharena wins and Moe enthusiatically congratulates her and hypes her up without a hint of animosity. Moe wins against Alfonse and truly does not know what to do w that information, this is unprecedented, until Alfonse ever the good sport hits it with the "You fought well ☺️" and Moe malfunctions and explodes

i don't believe in the fandom concept of problematic faves (all characters should have at least one Problem, i think, for flavor) but if i did, fiona pitch would have a permanent throne at the very top of my list. i just think she's neato-cheetos.

Bloody Hearts Bingo Day 7

Prompts: Only You, Romance | Their bed/clothes smell like the other after

Kisuke exhaled, slowly straightening and popping his back. He'd done his best to make everything as convenient for him as possible- much easier in a lab meant for him alone than for many people to work in- but the fact remained that the easiest way to work on a specimen on a table involved bending over, and he wasn't quite as young as he used to be.

Even then, he'd still had to face the consequences of spending too long in the same position- he was more built for stillness than the typical soul, but that had its limits and those limits tended to bite back whenever he pushed them. He groaned, twisting to work out the set of kinks that lived just above his hips, then set to work tidying up.

The door to the side chamber was shut and locked properly. The wards were humming, and despite himself Kisuke drifted to the window he'd set in- five layers of reinforced glass, transparent plastic, and thin sheets of kido ensured that it was no weaker than the wall around it- to look at the inhabitants. His four experiments laid there, all sound asleep with a steady dosage of his custom drugs seeping into their veins. Even having just gotten his hands in them not an hour previously- the first of many modifications and experiments, setting the foundations for his great work- a longing to touch, to claim, to make sure his presence was etched into every molecule of their beings was rising.

Kisuke was very, very good at not giving himself what he wanted. He turned away, tugging a curtain across the window to deny himself the temptation. For a few minutes, everything was as it always was after a lengthy experiment or operation, the desire to make sure everything was put away properly and cleaned up so nobody could figure out what he did and his notes would be in order warring against the adrenaline crash and desire for about a dozen dumplings and a long nap.

Benihime stirred, pushing herself closer to his skin, enhancing the senses he usually kept just-slightly-dimmed to be able to function properly. Both of them went still at the new information filtering in- not sight, though Kisuke was aware of a few slight stains that he'd want to get to before Tessai wandered in, not sound, though the quiet humming of his wards and the air filtration system settled his heartbeat, but smell.

The entire lab was filled with the scent of his four experiments, raw and unfiltered. Kisuke buried his nose in his jinbei to try and at least filter it out and found no relief- his lab coat was the same way, utterly saturated in scent. Benihime dug her nails in, not quite drawing blood but ensuring that he was well aware of her desires.

They were Kisuke's desires, too- what few people realized was that Kisuke and his Princess were very, very similar, warped reflections of each other in the kind of twisted feedback loop that had ensured that Yoruichi had never been quite the same after catching a glimpse of her in the aftermath of his work to gain bankai. He leaned into her grip, basking in the unity of purpose for a long moment, then went back to work.

Fortunately, he kept a clean lab (despite what most people thought) unless he was in the middle of a mad research binge, which he was not, and so tidying up didn't take all that long. Benihime was demanding, her quiet song turning sharper and sharper in a way that promised the kind of delicious pain that stripped away all pretense from the world, and Kisuke was more than willing to indulge them both.

Despite his best efforts, though, his bedroom was not directly connected to his lab. Tessai had refused- had demanded that there be a way for him to eat between stumbling out of the lab and collapsing on his futon- and Yoruichi had encouraged it with the development of the necessary warding, and thus Kisuke had to stumble through the kitchen and one of several common rooms to get to his room.

It just so happened that the common room that made up part of his preferred route to his room was the one the teens had taken over as their space to do homework and work on hobbies when they were over, and Kisuke was unable to stop from going entirely still at what he found there.

The scent was present, of course, but he'd grown as accustomed to the sensation of having them all over him and his space as he could manage in the limited time given. What was more shocking was the nest he found, built in a still-mostly-rudimentary fashion out of the blankets that had previously been draped over a pair of low couches and filling a box to the side of one, and lined with two very familiar haori. Kisuke had known that the gaseous drug he'd pumped into what had become 'their' common room relaxed and reduced inhibitions, resulting in very pliant subjects, but he'd evidently not known that the collective desire before he'd called them down to his lab had been to curl up in the safest place they could manage, instincts already running high from his preparatory work, and that the safest place had involved his scent.

Somehow, Kisuke made it to his room, shutting the door and feeling his personal wards engage behind him. Benihime's song was loud in his ears, drowning out the rapid beat of his heart, and she was yanking demandingly even as he peeled himself out of his usual layers, already starting to claw into his skin.

He hadn't realized. Sometime in between when he'd first conceived of the experiment and now, his four subjects once chosen for being unique, powerful, and easy to manipulate had become his, property and possession and far, far more than either of those words conveyed. They were his as he was Benihime's as she was his, and no doubt he'd have to negotiate with Inoue-chan's fairies and Kurosaki-kun's Zangetsu to incorporate them into the network as well.

But they were his now, and his plans shifted even as Benihime drove him to his knees, her needles already prying open the seams she'd made on his soul, shifting and rearranging things. They were his to reshape and his to remake and his to direct, but also his to care for and hone and, perhaps, if things went well and he didn't break them as he did with almost all else that he got too close to, to rest with. The rest, Benihime drove out of his head, and he turned himself over to her.
