What if Leo and Usagi kiss under a mistletoe. Will they actually do it?
(For those who have not seen the Christmas Aliens episode; Raph’s operating a movable mistletoe to help Casey get a kiss from April and Mikey is missing for most of the Christmas night, getting chased around the city by some thieves).
Well… no. Not yet anyway and for quite some time.
It’s 2004, world wasn’t very kind to gay people back then, or helped much with figuring things out for young queers (I would know, I was one). He still needs some time to precess. He just found his first best friend and he’s cool and strong and makes him happy and that’s all he wants to think about rn.
On the other hand feudal Japan was surprisingly okay with two men being involved romantically (despite the problematic side of things… good place to remind everyone 03 Usagi is a teen as well), so he’s a little confused by Leo’s mixed messages.
It’s okay, they’r still kids figuring things out. And when they will, there’ll be time for kisses.
Comic that happens later that night (that I posteed before).
Part of 🟢 Leo gets Overwhelmed au🟢

I just saw your post on Mikey doing angry stimms and had to ask for more /nf since this is the first time I've seen someone draw angry stimms for a character (it's not that common from my perspective)
Thank you- love your artstyle so much!!! :D
(P.s. I also get angry stimmys too sometimes)
Aww- thank you so much for this ask! I am really, really happy you liked it!! And yeah I feel like angry stims aren't talked about as much...
Anyways I was really super excited to draw more- still using stims that I have done, though these are a little more uh... aggressive? I wanted to preface this by saying that I do these gently, or they are stims that I've replaced with something else hehe :)
For my angry stims a lot of it is based on frustration so it's kinda a lot of flailing? Like aggressive shaking. The biting one isn't something I've done in a while- and is one that I would try to do gently (would not recommend that one lol), and the punching of the thigh is something I tend to do (gently) when I'm hella frustrated with homework :)
#You are so so right about angry stims not being shown a lot#I think partially because they aren't all fun or cute- like these more aggressive ones shown here#or because they don't match.. like with the jumping one I drew earlier. Angry stimmys are veeeery interesting tho :)#I like to hear that you share it <3#side note I had to sit there biting my hand (gently) for like a solid 10 minutes to get the pose right lmao#ANYWHO SERIOUSLY THIS ASK MADE ME VERY VERY HAPPY!!!! SO THANK YOU FOR SENDING IT!!!! :D <3 <3 <3#answered asks#tmnt#rottmnt#tmnt mikey#tw biting#just in case :)

Hey, I started reading Robin son of Batman because of your recommendation (I literally have a print of your post on my phone to not forget lol). Honestly? One of the best things I ever read!!!
Thank you for opening my eyes! Damian has been one of my favorite characters for over a year, but I didn't read/watch much of him because of school, life (and probably an executive dysfunction in the mix).
Maya is incredible. I loved her.
I haven't finished all the issues yet, but do you have any other recommendations?
WAH this makes me so happy, i'm glad you still gave it a shot even with how busy life is!! ;v;
i’d love to give reccs, and i’ll try to go a beginner friendly route! tbh you can pick up whatever here, but since you've read R:SOB i’d immediately follow up with Batman and Robin (2011) #1-8! this first arc is what’s referred to in Maya’s introduction, and it's just. so good.

Before I forgetttttt
So color thinks Killer is brainwashed, BUT, what if one time when Killer's soul is normal and he can feel and think for himself again, what if they are chilling at Color's place and then Killer gets up and says something like "I have to go home, don't want to worry dad"
What would Color think ? Would he rethink everything because "wait, why did you call him dad ???" Or would he think that damn, this brain washing is even worse than he thought because apparently Nightmare makes them call him dad ?? Which is weird even for Nightmare that could be a manipulation method ??
Okay that's it byyyeee
OH I LOVE THINKING ABOUT THESE GUYS OKAY SO!!!!!
(I'm still new to Color so if I'm wicked super wrong let me know!)
I feel like no matter what Killer said about Nightmare, Color wouldn't believe it. If somebody's been held captive so long they no longer think they want to leave, of course they're going to say they like living there. No matter how much Color cares about him, I think he has to consider Killer an unreliable narrator as far as his own situation is concerned.
But! Color's main concern is giving Killer his autonomy back and helping him learn to make his own choices. This unfortunately means if Killer keeps choosing to go back to Nightmare, Color has to respect it.
I feel like the only way he would begin to slowly unwind and trust that Nightmare had good intentions would be to see it for himself repeatedly. It's going to take more than a few good turns to prove that he isn't just putting on an act when Color is watching and then turning the whip on them again when nobody's looking. That's going to be hard to set up though since neither of them want to be around the other very much lol
I do think a good start for it would be Nightmare giving Killer the choice though. Like, not that they don't get to choose things regularly, but Killer isn't really one to think much about what he wants or come forward with it so Nightmare kind of assumes he's content and doesn't really think to check in with him. So if he actually made a point of asking Killer what he wanted and he said he wanted to spend a day with Color, I think that would be a good start. Obviously Color's not gonna jump to trusting him after one day, but hearing that Nightmare is also giving Killer his own choices and actually respecting them might give him a bit more reason to trust him.
That said, the image of Color's face as he asks "he makes you call him dad??" is sending me lol
#UTDR#Ask#mikimakiboo#Trying so hard to keep it short and not type every thought I have for the next 3 hours lol#Thank you!!! I love thinking about these guys right now so this ask made me really excited :D#But yeah. I have a hc that none of them (at least at the start) are very good at saying if they want something#So Nightmare kind of uses Killer to find out what the others want and report to him with it#And it takes him maybe a but too long to realise he's forgetting Killer himself and ask what *he* would like#And after a long minute of silence Killer says he wants to go to the big timeline and hang out with Color#Which Nightmare absolutely hates the idea of because he could lose one of his boys forever but agrees to for Killer's sake#I think it starting like that would be a good foundation for both of them#Because Color gets to see Nightmare dropping Killer off as he wishes#And Nightmare gets to answer the call from Killer to come pick him up when he's ready to come back#It's going to take a lot more work for both sides to be happy but so help me god we're all gonna be happy in the end in this multiverse#Anyway!! Thank you again for this chance to ramble <3

The Development of Elias in TAMB: (Long ver)
(Hii again, some people have asked me to upload the original version of the previous post I made so here it is :D
Since it is very long, I tried to divide it into several sections to make it much easier.
Anyway, if you think it's too much, simply read the post just before this)
Childhood, Attachment, and Parental Negligence
Although his story does not unfold in the traditional way one might expect for a human being, his "childhood" and development are deeply marked by the experiences and figures he encountered throughout his life. By exploring the dynamics between Elias, Lindel, and Rahab, we can observe how these relationships have influenced his identity, personality, and behavior.
Rahab and Lindel: An Unconventional Family Dynamic
To better understand Elias's "childhood," it's necessary first to analyze the relationship between Rahab and Lindel. Rahab, a powerful sorceress, finds Lindel when he is still a child. She raises him and gives him his name, but as Lindel grows, something crucial happens: a traditional parent-child bond does not form between them. Although Rahab cares for Lindel and teaches him magic, he does not come to see her as a mother in the emotional sense. This is not uncommon in adoptive families, especially when a child is taken in at an age where they already have memories of their previous life. In such cases, children often fail to see their caregivers as parents, and it seems this is exactly what happens between Rahab and Lindel.
Lindel grows up appreciating Rahab for what she has done for him but without the desire to maintain a close or dependent relationship. This dynamic is important because it reflects the way Lindel later interacts with Elias, who eventually becomes his adopted "son."
Meeting Elias: The Beginning of a New Life
When Lindel first encounters Elias, he is unconscious on the ground, with no memory of his past. At this point, Elias is like a blank slate, a being just beginning to become aware of himself. His ignorance of the world around him and his lack of identity make him vulnerable and dependent on those who care for him. It is at this moment that Elias can be said to "be born" again, not in a physical sense, but in terms of mental and emotional development.
One of the most intriguing details is how Elias, upon being taken by Lindel to Rahab's cabin, significantly reduces his size. Some have interpreted this change in form as a sign that Elias had committed heinous acts, such as devouring human children. However, an alternative interpretation could be that his reduction in size symbolizes his current state: a creature that knows nothing, almost like a newborn child. This physical change could be a manifestation of his lack of knowledge and experience, reflecting his vulnerability.
Lindel as a Father Figure: The Neglect in Raising Elias
Despite Lindel's initial reluctance, Rahab convinces him to care for Elias, hoping that this will force him to relate to another being and come out of his isolation. However, this decision proves problematic. Lindel did not want to take care of Elias from the beginning and only accepts because he feels guilty about leaving him alone. This unwillingness to assume the role of a father has significant consequences for Elias's development.
From the moment Rahab names Elias and they welcome him as part of their family, they become Elias's attachment figures. Like any child, Elias begins to absorb everything Lindel teaches him and depends on him to understand the world. However, Lindel soon realizes that Elias does not behave "normally." Elias, like many characters in *TAMB*, can be interpreted as a representation of neurodivergence. His difficulties in understanding and relating to others, his perception of the world as if he experiences it in the third person, and his unusual behavior suggest that Elias is on a different cognitive spectrum.
This additional challenge aggravates the already difficult task of raising Elias, and Lindel, who never wanted to be his caregiver, begins to distance himself emotionally. He does not teach him social skills, how to manage his emotions, or even basic human skills like reading and writing. Instead, he focuses solely on teaching him magic and how to interact with the natural environment, ignoring fundamental aspects of Elias's personal development. This lack of teaching and support in crucial areas of Elias's life can be classified as parental negligence. Although Lindel does not physically abuse Elias, his lack of commitment to educating him and preparing him for the world leaves Elias with deep deficiencies that will affect him throughout his life.
Rahab as a Mother Figure: An Insufficient Effort
After parting ways with Lindel, Elias returns to Rahab seeking help. Unlike Lindel, Rahab seems more willing to care for Elias. Although she cannot leave her home due to magical restrictions, she tries to teach him what she can. Rahab realizes that Elias has difficulty understanding emotions and human relationships, but even though she tries to help him, she does not manage to meet all his emotional and social needs.
Rahab does teach him some basic skills, such as reading and writing, and provides a warmer environment than Lindel. However, she also makes the mistake of underestimating Elias's potential to develop meaningful relationships and manage his own emotions. Her belief that Elias could never have a "normal" life leads her not to provide him with all the necessary tools to face the world. This attitude, although well-intentioned, also constitutes a form of negligence. Rahab, like Lindel, leaves Elias without the emotional and social support he needs to fully develop as an individual.
The Consequences: An Adult with Insecure Attachment and Neurodivergence
The result of these upbringing experiences is that Elias grows up to be an adult with insecure attachment and severe difficulties in managing his emotions. The lack of an emotional reaction when Elias separates from Lindel suggests that Lindel was never a true attachment figure for him, and this emotional detachment repeats itself when Elias finally leaves Rahab. Although Rahab cares for him and often remembers him, the fact that Elias has learned that his attachment figures do not react when he leaves leads him to develop a distorted view of human relationships.
His insecure attachment, combined with his nature as a fae that tends to be possessive, manifests in incidents like the one with Stella, where his inability to understand and manage his emotions leads him to act inappropriately. Elias is a being deeply affected by his "childhood," marked by emotional neglect and lack of preparation for social and emotional life. Despite his curiosity about humans, his defective upbringing and neurodivergence leave him unable to form healthy and balanced relationships, at least at the beginning of the series.
Conclusion
As a result of this neglect, Elias exhibits insecure attachment, primarily manifesting as avoidant attachment, with some elements of disorganized attachment. He struggles with emotional detachment and finds it difficult to form close, meaningful relationships. His indifferent reactions to separation from his caregivers and his unpredictable emotional responses suggest a deep conflict in how he relates to others. This insecure attachment, rooted in the inconsistent and emotionally distant care he received, leaves Elias ill-prepared to manage his emotions and form healthy, stable relationships.
#The truth is that it made me very happy that they asked me for the original#because I put a lot of effort into writing it so thank u <3#I apologize if it is very formal#I only write in English for uni assignments or conferences#so I am not good at writing in an informal way#I'm not used to interacting much in fandoms either#and also I moved to tumblr relatively recently#but you all seem very nice honestly#so I'll probably write more in the future. you'll see me around here :)#mahoyome#the ancient magus bride#mahoutsukai no yome#tamb#ancient magus bride#elias ainsworth

Saw your post about 40's gale waking up in the present... not saying i'll actually write the whole thing (literally been so long since i wrote a whole fic) but i did word vomit this up pretty quick after i saw your posts and wanted to share with you! hope you like it!
~~
The sun broke through the curtains, rousing Gale from a fitful sleep. It was warmer than it should be, and the nightmares of the flack had filled the night. He felt disoriented. He rolled off, trying to miss smashing his head on the bunk above him, when his bare feet hit something soft. That woke him the rest of the way.
He had gone to sleep in Stalag Luft III, dressed in the same disgusting uniform he had been wearing for months now. A biting cold that had crept into his bones that no blanket could fight off, his boots nearly cemented to his feet. A stiff straw mattress in the bunk right under Brady, where he had woken up every day since arriving in this god forsaken place where the Krauts swarmed like roaches around him.
He wasn’t in the Stalag this morning.
The room he was in was an open space. He could see a kitchen from where he sat on a large, plush bed. Wide windows looked out over a downtown somewhere, red brick buildings and flowering trees lining the street. Under his bare feet was a soft green rug. He stood up carefully, sure the Stalag had finally broken him. The space was wrong. Nothing was how it should be. Too sleek. None of what he was seeing made any sense.
And then in walked John.
He carried two paper cups that brought the smell of coffee into the space. He was humming, terribly, some kind of cord hanging from his ears. He barely looked up, setting the cups down on a table and dancing around before grabbing Gale by the arm and spinning him into the dance. John leaned forward, pressing his cheek into Gale’s, turning them around the floor to a song Gale couldn’t hear. He pulled back, leaning in again, almost as if he was going to-
Buck’s eyes opened, the bitter cold of the Stalag eating into his cheekbones and his fingers, and dragging him into a reality that felt all too familiar and now, just for a brief second, too torturous to bear. He looked over, expecting to see John still asleep, only to see him watching Buck with a look that he couldn’t understand, confused and intrigued and burning. Buck held his gaze for just a second before he had to turn away, caught by the memory of what could have only been some kind of crazed dream.
the posts for context: x, x

My Time Has Come [sees fanart]
PIXELYANKI,,, I came for Rimworld, but twas enamoured by the Lanky Barbarian Boi [You DID make a cutie].
I've been periodically opening this ask at work all day to stare at it and grin like an idiot. I love it so so so so much!!!! Look at the boy!! He's so beautiful!!!! I love him! I love you!
"Pixelyanki" is probably what he was called as a gamer at Astral Plains High School before he graduated and chose his current barbarian career path.
Vanic likes your art, too. He thinks you made him look stunning, and he wants to keep this picture forever ❤️❤️❤️
(He is very busy rescuing Moonrise prisoners, grinding his teeth at FUCKING Wulbren Bongle, and saving Rolan's ass at the moment though. Fawning over beautiful art of himself will have to wait, sadly)
#asks#baldur's gate 3#bg3#bg3 tav#gracie plays#FANART!!#fanart for meeee!!!!#I love it so much#It makes me so happy#I wanna print it out and stick it up where I can look at it forever#I love it so so much#You made him look so cute!!!!#Thank you!

Hi Gray!! I was wondering if you've seen the Ladybug redesign for season 6 yet??? If you have, your thoughts??
HI ASPIRE THANK YOU FOR THE ASK I AM HOLDING YOUR HAND AND SWINGING IT AS WE WALK
I've seen the teaser for her new model design but if there's another design that's been released I haven't seen it!! I'll probably love it though you could give me any new content of Miraculous or Marinette and I'll be full of enough energy to bounce off the walls one billion times. I love her look now-- I think it's very iconic-- but a suit update seems in order based on the progression of canon and I'm looking forward to seeing what they do!! If you have pictures I would love to see them and I'd also thank you endlessly hehe <3 <3 <3
#aspire 📝#ASPIRE SHOULD I KEEP CALLING YOU ASPIRE OR IS THERE ANOTHER NAME YOU GO BY!!!#Also thank you so much for the ask it made me very happy <3 <3 <3 I LOVE TALKING TO YOU!!#asks#gray's soapbox
