Okay but what about this

Mark had to go to war or something and Seb is to stay at the kingdom to play his role as the pretty wife.

He gets bored easily to be honest Mark is his only source of comfort and he doesn't trust that everyone will be kind to him if he is ever caught in his lie.

It's plausible as his rut is approaching and he is feeling extremely territorial.

Turns out it's not the right timing for him to have a rut as a delegation of a foreign nation lead by their princess *Nico* is set to come visit.

So Seb does the logical thing and flee in town to try and find a place where to have his rut without being found.

It would have been an amazing idea if he hadn't seen a young pup getting abused by what seems to be his family.

Seb doesn't think before killing the men and get face to face with such a small boy that it breaks his heart.

The boy has a blank expression on his face either from shock or just because he's like that.

When Seb gets close to the kid the little boy looks up and has tears in his eyes. His gaze is one of a kid who is used to be hurt and is expecting to get it.

Seb picks up the boy, and hug him saying that everything is gonna be ok. He hears the kids crying and feels him clutching into his dress.

Seb end up finding a shelter remote enough from the town to be hidden but still warm enough to be welcoming. He does make a nest and then have the little baby cuddle up into his chest. Rumbling to soothe him and even tho he knows he's rut is close his protective side is so strong now that he just want to protect the little boy.

The little boy the morning after whispering his name as Osca' and Seb is feeling so much love for that kid. It's his pup now.

Oh pls!

Mark having to leave and Seb is not happy about being left behind alone. Mark is the only person who knows sebs secret and Seb trusts him because he owes Mark his life!

Seb being quite antsy and tense when Mark leaves and Mark scenting him real good? It's hard for Omega pheromones to completely cover sebs scent when he is upset but with the scenting people will think it's marks scent on him.

And kfcourse Seb ends up going into rut when Mark is gone, and it coincides with a unannounced visit of princess Nico who is a good friend of Mark. Seb cannot be around the Omega in this state and flees to avoid worse! He plans to find a cave and stay there but in the outskirts of town, he sees a young pup being pushed around and kicked and ridiculed and with his heightened instincts he cannot let it happen!

Seb easily winning the fight in his rut induced rage, and when he turns around the pup is standing and looking so stoic, clearly ao used to being hurt! Seb gathering the little one in his arms and hugging him close snd the pup just cries because it has been so long since he was hugged!

Seb still wanting to find the cave foe his rut but he is afraid about the pup? Maybe he goes to the cave still and makes sure the pup is warm and safe, but what if he returns to the castle?

Imagine nico being so confused when both Mark and his new bride were not there to greet him, and then this of rut smelling Alpha in a pretty dress covered in mud comes stumbling in carrying a little toddler. Nico just staring dumbfounded until Seb rasps out "I am Sebastian. If you are really friends with Mark, please help me" and that spurs Nico into action.

Nico managing to get Seb in some hidden chambers before anyone else sees him and giving him herbal tea from his kingdom that lessens rut symptoms (and also makes the Alphas a littl3 loopy lol). Seb just rambling away about where he is from and why he did what he did and it's in a mix of languages but Nico understands most. He doesn't really have an explanation for the litlte pup clinging to him, who growled when Nico tried to lift him out of Seb's arms to wash him up a bit. The pup mumbling his name is Osca' and Seb just keeps mumbling Oscar is his son now!

Mark coming home and finding this mess lol! But Nico is understanding and will not tell anyone about Seb, and pls Mark getting to meet tiny Oscar who is a little sus bur if Seb likes Mark than Osc will too!

Macaca and the Mayor, what's it like to be parents?

Bai Hae, how does it feel to have two more dads?

Do your parents even know that one of your babysitters is the mayor?

[sirmanmister]

Headcanon that MacCready was a very blond child and his hair just darkened when he got older, then Duncan ends up with the same hair :)

[constablequodo]

Sorry that I talk about this so much, but oh my god. I looked on Mayor Mcdonough's wiki, and nowhere does it say he grew up in Diamond City. In fact, it says that him and Hancock MOVED there at some point. I have no idea where people keep getting the idea that Hancock was young when he lived there? Especially since the fandom has mostly agreed that he's around 30-40 at the time of meeting him in the game.

I think presidents should be younger because they are more in touch with the median position of the country, yes, but also because they should have to live with their choices. Actively live with them. Not retire to their walled garden but instead maintain a presence in their community, on a local level as well as a national one. By bestowing wealth, prestige, and privacy on them, combined with the idea that they have earned a period of rest due to their age, they are allowed to retreat from the effects of their administration and the responsibility they still hold as a citizen of this country.

[beauleifu]

The Mayor's boss music whenever he's boutta kill someone would definitely be It's A Hard Knock Life

Like just imagine that echoing down the hallway and you just KNOW you're a goner

[jils-things]

why arent uni students exempted from getting a class suspension im not gonna fuckin swim to my school wtf 😭

the weather has gotten so aggressive lately i don't wanna risk it 😭

[hyperfixation-tangentopia]

Ah ha, I've got a question for you :3

Who's your favorite LMK villain (aside from Macaque)?

Okay fair restriction XD

LBD. Without a doubt. She was my fave next to MK on first watch.

The scenes where someone attacks her and she does nothing but they just stop is chilling. Her scenes with Wukong are FANTASTIC. She's facing someone who's taken her down once and can fight and beat GODS with so much confidence. Her scenes with MK are BETTER. I have a thing for manipulative villains and DAMN the way she gets into MK's head HURTS. I think the only reason I don't like her more is because I'm too emotionally attached to the characters and try to ignore just how TERRIFIED she makes MK. She has ONE SCENE with Red Son and in not even 5 minutes she emotionally drags him through the dirt before PHYSICALLY YEETING HIM.

OH YEAH I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THAT FREAKING POSSESSION

ALL OF THEM

So first one DBK! It lasted one episode so not much to say about it EXCEPT NO THERE'S A LOT TO SAY ABOUT IT

FROM HOW IT LOOKS LIKE SHE'S AFFECTING HIM BEFORE SHE EVER ESCAPES to HOW SHE EMOTIONALLY DESTROYS RED SON

SORRY SHE HAS TWO SCENES AND WRECKS HIM IN BOTH

Okay and then THE LITTLE GIRL (Bai He? Something like that? Fanonically?) I KNOW SHE GETS 0 CHARACTER BUT TO POSSESS A LITTLE GIRL TRYING TO GET HER CAT? COLD LBD. COLD.

Okay and apparently I can't go one ask without talking about Macaque BUT HER ABILITY TO TAKE A CHARACTER WE'VE ONLY EVER SEEN CONFIDENT AND SMILING TO FREAKING OUT AND IN CHAINS IN SECONDS IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING. DOWN TO ACTIVELY KILLING HIM WITH HER POWERS BECAUSE HE WILL EITHER GET IT DONE OR DIE TRYING. I WILL NEVER GET OVER THAT.

AND THEN THE OBVIOUS. WUKONG. FREAKING. POSSESSED. WUKONG. FROM HER HOLDING HER OWN AGAINST HIM NOT AT HER FULL POWER TO NOT MORE THAN 10 SECONDS OF A FIGHT? HIS COLORS PHYSICALLY DIM WHEN HE'S POSSESSED. AND THE FACT SHE HELD HIM FOR SO LONG DESPITE HIM OBVIOUSLY FIGHTING BACK, WHILE ALSO PICKING AWAY AT MEI AND HER MECH? SPREAD TOO THIN SURE BUT THAT'S STILL ABSOLUTELY POWERFUL.

POSSESSED WUKONG IS PROBABLY THE MOST TERRIFYING THING I'VE EVER SCENE THAT I DON'T TALK ABOUT. FUCKING STONE-COLD (no pun intended). THE THREATS? THE TAKING OUT RED SON IN A SECOND? WITH FISTS IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY?? THE STALKING THROUGH THE SAMADHI FIRE TO GET MEI? THE ICE AND TELEPORTATION? ALSO GETTING WUKONG TO DESTROY NEZHA AND FLING HIMSELF AT MK WITH 0 HESITATION? I CAN'T HANDLE IT.

AND THAT'S SAYING NOTHING ABOUT HIS FINAL FIGHT?? FLINGING WUKONG AT MK, AGAIN, 0 HESITATION, AND THEN DESTROYING MACAQUE AND THROWING HIM ON THE FLOOR, ONCE AGAIN, USUALLY SMILING AND CONFIDENT AS ALL HELL. AND WUKONG ONLY BROKE FREE AT THE LAST SECOND AND HE STILL WASN'T RID OF HER COMPLETELY????

I CAN'T. DEAL. WITH THIS WOMAN.

AND SHE FOUGHT SO GODDAM HARD TO STAY ON HER TRACK, BROKE THROUGH MEI AND WIELED THE SAMADHI FIRE, AND EVEN WHEN SHE WAS DYING SHE WASN'T FUCKING DONE.

WHO WOULD I BE IF I WENT ON THIS RANT WITHOUT MENTIONING IT.

"That pursuit only leads to one thing."

"Uh-huh. To destiny, right?"

*Small, amused smile* "No. To pain."

WHAT. THE. FUCK???

I LOVE THIS WOMAN AND SHE DOES NOT GET ENOUGH CREDIT. SHE MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY DESTROYS MOST OF THE CAST DOWN TO WUKONG HIMSELF, DODGES DEATH MULTIPLE TIMES, NOT EVEN TO MENTION THAT CHILLING SCENE IN THE CELESTIAL REALM, AND EVEN HER DEATH WAS JUST THE FINAL BLOW TO EXPLOSIVES SHE'D BEEN SETTING OFF ALL SEASON.

LADY. BONE. DEMON. NEEDS. MORE. CREDIT.

SHE IS AN AWESOME AND TERRIFYING VILLAIN. NOBODY EVERY DIRECTLY SAYS "SHE'S SO POWERFUL" (THAT I REMEMBER) AND THAT'S BECAUSE THEY DON'T NEED TO. EVERYTHING SHE DOES, EVERY MOVE SHE MAKES, EVERY AFFECT SHE SETS OFF, IS TELLING TO HER POWER. NOBODY NEEDS TO STATE IT BECAUSE IS IT SO. PAINFULLY. CLEAR.

THE HOPELESSNESS AND FEAR THE CHARACTERS FEEL GOING UP AGAINST HER? IT DESERVED. IT'S REAL.

Anyway thank you for the opportunity to rant about the character I for some reason have so much trouble getting myself to ramble about. Anyway. I love the monkies so much and they glow in those first three seasons but LBD? LBD ran it.

Hi! This is the anon that dropped in a few months ago to share my appreciation for your Mayor Attorney playlist on Spotify! Ever since I sent that ask I've wondered... what made you put the songs on there that you did? In other words, why is each song on there? Feel free to ignore this if you don't want to answer, but I've just been curious for a while about each song's significance on the playlist. Whatever you decide to do, thanks for your time, and have a lovely rest of your day! -💙

💙anon thank you so much for this ask I love explaining my playlists i would love to explain >:3

for the songs, some songs are ones I've heard on other mayor attorney playlists and added them to mine, others are ones ive had little animatics in my head for, and some are just songs with the vibes that remind me of them jsahdsdf, i could go into depth on all the songs but we'd be here forever so ill just go to the more general explanations. it'l be below the cut just bc i accidentally wrote a lot for this asjkhdbaskjd

for the playlist, i tried dividing the songs into roughly three categories: university days, election years, and post-darkness/mirror.

the first section is university days, where it would be songs about crushes, cozy and upbeat songs that make you feel happy and excited, and old songs that had good vibes to them. it was meant to symbolize the vibes and emotions of when damien n the da would have first met. everything is new and exciting, things feel comfortable and okay, and the love is positive and all-around consuming.

the second is election years, which is more for songs that are the same level of pining as university days but more sadder in a sense. this starts around sweater weather i think (these sections arnt hard areas of the playlist, they slowly transition between them but this section i can certainly say where it starts) . this is for the realization between the two that there is a small chance of them being together in this time, whether its because your/the da isn't female identifying at the time or maybe its public eyes making it hard for two people in positions of power to date, either way this is for the realization that they cant be together. they continue being friends and pining, but theres the helplessness of not being able to date, or at least not publicly.

then we get to post-darkness/mirror. it starts off with songs about remembering the past: when i met you, daisy bell, i hear a symphony, always, the night we met. this is directly after the da gets trapped in the mirror, trying to remember the days before everything happened, when they were with the damien they remember. then begins the mirror part, where both the da and dark/damien think about the other. this section is rather loose because its mainly my own hopes that the two still care for each other, losing all the initial anger they had from the party and replaced with a dull hope. its the angst section if you will. its less stronger in explanation because its all depending on what you hope for them. maybe they want to rescue each other still, maybe they gave up and just reminisce about the past with hurt but still caring lens, maybe all they can do is wait it out, maybe they find each other and see what the others become, maybe they still love each other regardless. its loose because thats how markiplier lore is, and its open for interpretation askjhd

and thats the whole playlist i think! kjhaskdjasjkd

so in this episode the joker is just like giving a ton of money 2 make people high school dropouts and then is making an evil gang with it. batman is just at dicks school. in broad daylight. he tells the students that robin is at school too but he cant say which one it is. hes just consulting with these students (and for totally no reason at all, dick is there. totally not blowing his cover at all). the jokers gang of high school dropouts is called the bad bennys.

OOC: I snuck my normal sketchbook into the office. If I get a chance I wanna make another FYI for the pinned post: the connections between the boys.

Everything is connected, in a way. Only Noah is fully disconnected from the original W.KM events but...

Tú, alcalde. ¿Hablas español? Eso sería genial :D

In context of this lovely idea I just wanted to add my headcanon that there was an art gallery in Himring. It was made by Angband survivors for Angband survivors (under the patronage of Lord Maedhros himself), they would deal with their trauma through art. I imagine the art they were creating as something similar to post Holocaust art in our world.

I think Himring would have the largest aggregation of Angband survivors in whole Beleriand, so their community there, bigger than anywhere else (+literally the guy ruling the place was one of them!), had unique possibilities such as speaking openly (or presenting by art) the truth of their experiences in iron hells, something they would be at least shamed for anywhere else.

I just think that elves that didn't go through Angband themselves weren't fully able to understand that art, they found it very upsetting and disturbing, meanwhile for the survivors those were just images of their everyday life in iron hells, horrible, for sure, but that had been their reality, their routine for a long time , and no matter how much they wanted to, they weren't able to just leave it behind.

And this is the reason why art gallery in Himring was something special and necessary for the survivors' community. The art exhibited there, wouldn't be exhibited anywhere else. In any other place everyone would shy away from that art. It would be said to be too much, too brutal, too explicit to show. Majority of elvish society rather avoided even speaking of Angband in any other context than the war effort, no one wanted to think about all the horrors the thralls were going through, and it left the survivors very alienated.

I just like to think Himring was a very rare place in Beleriand where the survivors were given freedom to and understanding in coping with the trauma of Angband, where they could form a community without being constantly distrusted, where they colud live without being constantly distrusted in the first place.

Where they could speak of (or express through art (I just think a lot of them wouldn't really be able to just speak of it)) what had been done to them, what they had suffered, and what they had seen, and be listened to and understood instead of ostracized.

I was supposed to just drop the headcanon and go, write a longer post about Himring's art gallery some other day, but since it's already this long I just wanted to add that the art differed from traditional elvish art not only by themes presented, but by the way it was made as well. Many survivors would be disabled, so a lot of the sculptures and paintings would be quite crude , far from traditional perfection. The materials it was made of were literally anything the artists had lying around and felt like using, paintings often had many things attached to them, materials were mixed , the sculptures weren't made of one brick of the same material there, but let's say for example of wood and iron bars, and I imagine it would be an innovation in Noldorin culture. Also I think they would be the first to come up with expressionism in Beleriand.

There are probably some other things about it that I forgot to include here, I kinda speedran this while procastinating learning for a test I have tomorrow, but I guess I've put here most of it.

Maedhros has learned the black speech in Angband, can speak it fluently & very much prefers death than ever admitting it to anyone

I have a weird question: Is chiefdom hereditary in Inuit communities? In the Northern Water Tribe, we know that Desna and Eska inherited their chief position from Unalaq- but I’m unsure about the Southern Water Tribe, maybe Sokka inherited the position from Hakkoda and then when Sokka died without issue, they held elections and chose Tonraq? Or maybe Sokka was democratically elected as well?

I’m sorry if I ended up rambling. It’s just that seeing Desna and Eska inherit their chiefdom really confused me because I always thought that it was an elected position

Traditionally, leadership in Inuit culture was determined by consensus, so basically a democratic election. Typically, the qualities that led people to choose you as a leader were your survival skills.

I've mentioned before that the Northern Water Tribe has more non-Inuit cultural influences than the Southern Water Tribe, so I've always just chalked up their hereditary leadership to being another example of that. Considering their proximity to Ba Sing Se, their emphasis on a strict hereditary chiefdom might be for the sake of projecting an image of centralized power, to help ward off their imperialistic neighbors to the south.

As for the Southern Water Tribe, I think they're actually a collection of small and independent villages, with each one having its own leader that's democratically elected; this is how they're portrayed in the "North and South" Avatar comics. This would explain why Katara mocked Sokka when he tried to claim he was a prince to Yue; it would be like the son of a small-town mayor declaring himself a prince. Plus, if leadership were hereditary, princedom would have been an internal struggle for Sokka, similar to Zuko. But Sokka's insecurity is never framed as not being worthy of being chief, but as simply lacking traditionally masculine skills.

I think Sokka eventually becoming the Southern Water Tribe Chief had more to do with his status as a prominent war hero than to his connection to his father.

just realized i use male pronouns when speaking about myself in spanish
