waittt your au...really need to hear more of a/d on this one

daniels working a minimum wage blue collar job & trying to go to his community college (cant afford to leave to go to any state school or shit like that) & armand relies on his dad. they want to run away together but poverty is keeping them trapped in their small town & who would believe daniel, some scruffy construction worker who never had a girlfriend, over mr de romanus, the local evangelical church's main supporter, if they were to come forward about his abuse of armand? besides, armand... isnt quite right in the head, are we sure he doesnt just misunderstand what his dad does? thats why he was homeschooled n doesnt have any friends other than daniel. this is for the best.

waking up in the middle of the night after spencer has a nightmare just to kiss his tears away 🙏🙏🙏

okayy anon we are literally connected? i was just thinking abt writing something like this??

Spencer’s nightmares became a lot less frequent once he started sleeping next to you regularly, but with his job, he still gets them from time to time.

For the first few minutes after he wakes up, he just needs to hold you. He closes his eyes and presses his face as far into the crook of your neck as it can go, breathing you in. You run your fingers through his hair, whispering sweet nothings to him, and he calms down pretty quickly (as he always does when he's with you).

He feels kind of guilty for waking you, but you quickly shut that down, because there's nothing you wouldn't do for him. You tell him that if he's up, you're up. And he's just so stressed, and you're just so sweet, he can't help but tear up all over again.

Bringing your hands up to cup his face, your thumbs wipe away any of the tears that fall, pulling him closer to kiss his face. That finally brings a little smile onto his face, and you continue until it turns into a laugh. He playfully pushes you away, almost overwhelmed with affection (and a little ticklish) and you're so happy to see that he's happy.

He's always a little nervous to go back to sleep, you leave a light on for him (it's canon that he's scared of the dark, he definitely has a nightlight idc!!) He cuddles as close to you as he can, somehow managing to seem so small despite his tall frame. ALSO, if the dream really shook him up, he'll ask you to read to him. It reminds him of when he was a kid and makes him feel so safe and sleepy. That is all.

Not to be that guy but * whips out the thor 2011 screenplay *

( excerpt from scene 95. Laufey's Temple for your shift + f edification.)

Darkness shrouds the ruined temple, save for the shafts of light which knife their way in through the damaged ceiling. Loki enters. Frost Giant guards surround him on all sides. Laufey approaches, towers over him menacingly. LAUFEY Tell me why I shouldn't kill you. LOKI I've come alone and unarmed. LAUFEY To what end? LOKI To make you another proposition. LAUFEY (REALIZING) So you're the one who let us into Asgard. LOKI You're welcome. LAUFEY My men are dead, and I have no Casket. You are a deceiver. Laufey lashes out, grabs Loki around the throat, but Loki calmly stands his ground. LOKI You have no idea what I am. The blueness spreads across his face, as Laufey and the guards stare in shock. Loki grins. LOKI (CONT'D) Hello, Father. Laufey releases him. Loki's body turns back to normal. Intrigued, Laufey sizes up his son. LAUFEY Ah, the bastard son. I thought Odin had killed you. That's what I would have done. He's as weak as you are. LOKI No longer weak. I now rule Asgard, until Odin awakens. Perhaps you should not have so carelessly abandoned me. This gives Laufey pause. LAUFEY Or perhaps it was the wisest choice I've ever made. I will hear you.

Although the length of this scene was cut (I'd imagine solely for the sake of time) I would argue that it still fuels the underlying intentions of Loki, and the truth of Odin and Laufey's respective thoughts about baby!Loki from the reveal scene.

Like many others of the cut and/or deleted scenes in THOR, it is less that the scenes and dialogue that didn't make it into the final cut were dropped out of necessary ambiguity removal, and more because there just not enough time for every scene in the 120m film for everything that Ashley Miller, Zack Stentz and Don Payne wanted the audience to see. Nonetheless everything that was left on the editing floor still informs the final product ... because all of it was fully intended to weave together into the final story.

And part of that final story is that Laufey is, and always was, in fact, just that much of a Grade A Jerk who did in fact unapologetically commit infanticide simply because his firstborn was a runt. And we simply can't have that in a frost giant heir, now can we.

I understand ppl wanting to make a what if scenario for laufey and Loki's birth mother but...its only a what if. The fact is laufey hated loki and wanted him dead

I don't care one single bit if people want to head canon away that Laufey was in fact a loving father and simply misplaced Loki in the aftermath of a war...in a frigid building with few clothes on. Sure, the temple was the safest possible place for a baby! Interesting head canon bro, you do you.

What gets me about this is that people will actually argue that this is a plausible canon fact and that we should consider it a valid interpretation of the events we are shown. And it's not. As you say, it's a fact that Laufey wanted Loki dead (I don't think we can say for a fact that Laufey hated Loki).

The justification for is always, "Odin is a liar." And while it is true that Odin lied about Hela, we're never given any reason to not believe what Odin tells us in Thor 1. Or TDW. Or, frankly, in Ragnarok—we believe him when he tells us about Hela, don't we? Ragnarok also spoofs the idea of Odin as narrator, implicitly acknowledging that he was a narrator in the earlier films, by having Actor Odin narrate Loki's demise in The Play (also! it foreshadows that we can't trust that Odin is giving us the full story when he tells Thor and Loki about Hela! Ragnarok is so smart and clever I can't stand it).

What the "Odin is a liar" justification doesn't take into account is that we, the audience, are not supposed to see Odin as a liar in Thor 1. The movie is not structured in a way that encourages us to go back and reconsider Odin's actions under a different light. You know whose actions we're supposed to reconsider in light of later events in the movie? Loki's. Because Loki is the twist villain, as much as a certain subset of the Loki fandom wants it to be Odin.

It would have been so easy to suggest that Loki was a wanted child and Odin kidnapped him. There could have been clues in the flashback of Odin finding Loki in the temple. There could have been nods to Laufey being enraged that Odin stole his child when Thor and co. go to Jotunheim. There could have been a line of dialogue from the Jotuns who sneak into the Vault about "the Casket not being the only thing Odin stole from Laufey." Instead, there is no evidence whatsoever that the story Odin tells Loki isn't the full truth. After the battle, he went into the temple, and he found an abandoned baby. That's it. That's what happened.

as someone who’s not really into romance *stares at ship list* it says something that i watched the entirety of season 1 in 2021 and did not gaf about mel and jayce (together) just to get it immediately when season 2 started lmaoooo

so i decided to look back at season 1 cuz i feel like i may have missed some stuff and the scenes that stand out to me the most are actually the ones with ambessa:

when i first saw this i remember thinking girl why are you trying to seduce your daughter’s man hello? also the fact that ambessa is the first one in canon to acknowledge mel’s feelings for jayce despite being so far removed from her life at this point. at first i thought it was just her way of intimidating him to get him flustered and i still think that’s what it was but,

in the next scene involving ambessa and a meljay mention, mel is the one who gives ambessa the reaction she wanted… from jayce. so much so that ambessa scolds her for it. “i taught you better”, as if mel fell for the bait she uses on most of their enemies. or maybe the bait she once fell for. (also can we talk about the growl when mel says jayce… can we talk about itttt)

all that to say as the mel pilled truther that i am, i think these are the most impactful scenes when it comes to showing mel’s love for jayce. since jayce is more outwardly affectionate, it strengthens this whole “she manipulated him/never loved him” narrative i keep seeing (and no, idc if you’re not seeing people say those things because i am!!), when i personally think this one scene is a lot more impactful than anything from his side.

bonus:

this scene has also given me a lot of pause. mel having a visceral nightmare about her mother and her home and they make sure to show us her waking up next to him. for what? and that look.

like what was that about? i still don’t really know what to make of it but it reminds me of her seeing his face when she’s in the void in season 2. like did she feel guilty for pursuing him? is she mad at herself for caring about someone for the first time since she was banished? did she think she put him in danger being with her knowing how her mother gets? it triggers curiosity.

Sanji, Warrior of the Sea

So, um, my husband very specifically asked for this fic so everybody pls thank Mr. Nehs; this is very silly; things don’t happen in here precisely as in the series canon, but what do I care?; essentially rated T but with a bunch of strong cussing (and that bathhouse scene) so be warned I guess; no shipping unless you put goggles on idc

Sanji, fresh out of Whole Cake Island, decides to make good of a shit situation and have Franky tinker with his raid suit. He just didn't take one thing into account: NERDS. [3696 words]

The weight of the canister was heavy in Sanji’s hand as he removed it from his inner jacket pocket. He and the rest of the crew were headed towards Wano, where the advance party was already in place. Leaning against the railing of the Sunny, he was tempted to chuck the thing as far as he could and forget about it, leaving the device to the briny depths of the ocean. It was only just barely slipped to him by Reiju, her ability for sleight of hand almost nostalgic.

“Use it better than we ever did,” she had whispered, and then had been gone. Now he was leagues upon leagues away, with little instruction on how or why.

He might have been his mother’s son, but as he held the device he thought of his father and what he would say. The geezer would cuss and kick him with the peg, most likely, but would also tell him to figure out a way to use it better than those sacks of skin that called themselves his family. Beat them at their own game and all that shit. He weighed his options: use it, shove it deep in his locker, or fucking yeet the piece of garbage as far as he could, use Moonwalk to catch it, and then throw it again for maximum coverage.

Then again, when he boiled it down, there was one more option that he needed to consider…

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

“You want me to what?” Franosuke slurped up soba as he looked at the device in Sangoro’s hand. It didn’t look like much, but from what the cook was implying, it was honestly one of the highest-tech pieces of equipment either of them had ever touched, which was impressive given the present company.

“See what you can do about making this thing… better,” Sangoro said. “I got it from my sister—Father thought he knew best and made one for each of us.”

“…even though you hate him?”

“He was hoping that I’d… come around one day.” Franosuke scoffed at that. “You get what I’m saying?”

“Yeah, yeah; I get you, brother,” Franosuke chuckled. He held out his hand and Sangoro handed over the device. “Usohachi and I are supposed to be hanging out tonight to work on some other projects, so I think we can fit this in.”

“Thanks; I owe you one,” Sangoro said. “Burgers might be a stretch, but I think I can manage some steak if you want.”

“Nah… I’ll take a rain check on that. Too busy this week.” Franosuke pocketed the device and went back to his soba. “This is good eatin’ though. Wouldn’t mind maybe an extra serving of this.”

Eh; he’d think about it.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Sanji kicked the dinosaur in the face, hard. Who the fuck was this guy, thinking he could just destroy people’s lives just because he was searching for him? He hated assholes like this, acting like nothing they ever did came with consequence, and he’d had enough. Taking the canister out of his kimono sleeve, he activated it, knowing that although he could take the asshole without it, he was going to need some seriously big guns to stop him before anyone else got hurt in the middle of the sleeping city.

Out of the canister came a costume, which wrapped around his body with precision accuracy. Sanji could feel that the fabrics were different from what his sperm donor had engineered and he was put more at-ease because of it. The raid suit finished forming and he felt damn good, like he was taking everything those bastards worked for and was pissing and ashing on it simultaneously. His opponent scoffed, however, or at least as much as a spinosaur could.

“Are you mocking me?!” he growled. “Real men don’t use a fight to play dress-up.”

“That’s selling it short,” Sanji smirked. He pressed his fingertips to the side of the helmet, activating the sensors. Varied readouts and stats flashed across the visor—bingo.

Using Moonwalk, Sanji bounced around in the air, confusing the shit-mannered mook until he was able to find an opening. Once he saw it, he acted swiftly, slamming a flaming foot into the back of the dinosaur’s neck. His opponent was knocked out cold without him damaging any other buildings.

“That’ll teach you,” he smirked. He watched as the spinosaur shrank down to a Human shape. Tch; asshole had no right to challenge him. It was then, however, that Sanji heard a surprised gasp. He turned around and saw… Traffy…?

“Holy shit,” Traffy marveled. “It’s Sora!” Sanji cringed at the sound of his mother’s name—what the fuck?!

“I’m no one!” he claimed. “Just… uh… just passing through!” Traffy replaced himself with a pebble and got directly within Sanji’s personal bubble, touching his cape and admiring his clothes.

“The attention to detail is absolutely exquisite,” he said. “Excellent craftsmanship; they spared no expense.”

“Get off me,” Sanji grumbled. Where the fuck was Traffy when the dino-jerk attacked? Way to have shit timing. He pulled the cloak out of Law’s hand and sneered. “Don’t touch the goods.”

“Uh… yes, sir,” Traffy mumbled. Sanji did not like the way his captain’s ally was looking at him, so he took one step back, found where the settings were, and… oh, thank fuck, Franky kept it. He turned on the cloaking device, essentially granting him invisibility, hoping it would allow for a quick getaway.

Trafalgar Law instead squealed like little kid…? Oh, he did not have enough smokes on-hand to unpack that.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Okay, granted, Sanji knew that sliding into the mixed baths was going to be trouble. He was likely to see way too much man peen for his liking, not to mention be in a position to get caught, but it was worth it to spy on wome—ahem—test the limits of his raid suit. Opportunities like this were becoming fewer and farther between as everyone prepared for the upcoming raid on Onigashima, and he needed to know exactly what the thing could do before throwing himself headlong into battle.

It was practical, okay? Field testing. Tactical information gathering.

Oh, there were a lot of women in the bathhouse that afternoon that made his heart race and the front of his pants feel tight. He swallowed hard as he watched them all from his perch in the rafters, above where others might see his invisible form displacing steam. The desire to palm himself was almost unbearable—this was definitely good… erm… data he was collecting.

Usopp was going to shit bricks when he told him what this thing could do.

Then, suddenly, he saw her come out of the changing room: Nami. All others seemed to fade into nothingness as he drank in the beauty of her in a towel. She was gorgeous, as always, with her silky skin and curvaceous body. A paragon amongst goddesses, she was, and it was enough for him to cave. He put his gloved hand on the front of his crotch and felt how hard his cock was underneath it all. Beloved Nami-swan, who graciously allowed the world to merely glimpse a tiny fraction of her beauty, was right here for all to see, and she was only in a towel.

Sanji stayed where he was for a moment while Nami was attempting to lay low, which was near-impossible thanks to all the looks she was getting. The local ladies loved her—fine by him—but… wait a second?! What were those men doing leering at her?! How dare they! He was certain that they couldn’t appreciate Nami like was right and proper! What did they know about a woman’s form? There was no way these men knew what he, a true connoisseur, did after all! He was so incensed by their unrefined palates that he nearly did not notice the new person walk in: Hawkins.

Shit; he was looking for people with the reverse crescent moon tattoo. A bathhouse was the perfect place to look for such a thing, wasn’t it? Oh no, what was he going to do?! He couldn’t give away his position, but Nami might be in danger. Well, she was strong and could take care of herself, but did she have her Climatact tucked away under the towel? What about the other women? He didn’t trust these losers to protect them, not to mention the fact that Nami shouldn’t have to protect herself unless there wasn’t a man like him around! Shit, shit shit… how was he going to explain this…? His infidelity to Nami’s beauty…?

Then it happened.

Like a shimmering light shining forth in the darkness!

A beacon of hope for all those who felt lost!

The pinnacle of the feminine form!

Nami-swan dropped her towel!

Maximum full-frontal!!

Sanji couldn’t take it any longer! Oh, the unfettered beauty! The pristine curves! The raw, natural majesty! He blacked for a moment, for the next thing he knew he was covered in blood down his front and everyone was staring at him.

Oh shit.

“Drake…” Hawkins said, his voice cracking high. He didn’t pull his eyes off Sanji despite the fact he was trying to gesture and grab at the same time with the arm closest to the door. “Drake, it’s him!”

“Did you find a suspect?” asked a voice from the foyer. X Drake… oh, the last thing he needed was another dinosaur idiot to deal with. Drake stepped into the bath area and glared at Hawkins, though once he saw Nami he froze in place, eyes wide and face red in blush. “That’s not a suspect, is it?”

“Not her, you idiot!” Hawkins hissed. “It’s Sora!” There was that name again! It was really beginning to grate on Sanji’s nerves, but he guessed he could handle it if it meant that Hawkins and Drake were distracted enough to let the people who were escaping… well… escape. Hawkins side-shuffled over to Drake and touched the other man’s face, turning it towards Sanji.

When Drake’s eyes finally followed his face, his jaw flopped open.

“It’s Sora, Warrior of the Sea!” Drake gasped. “That’s his vintage uniform from the Jutrich Island Saga!”

“Specifically his landing in Kester,” Hawkins agreed. By now, Sanji was on his feet and feeling incredibly awkward—what the fuck were they talking about? “He is more dashing in person, isn’t he?”

“That’s… not the word I’d use.”

“That is because you have no taste.”

“What in the hell are you two talking about?” Sanji scoffed. He activated the readouts on his visor again and they showed that the three of them were quickly becoming the only ones in the building—excellent.

“Surely you jest,” Hawkins said, trying to sound casual. “That uniform? The cape? Helmet? You are none other than Sora, Warrior of the Sea, taken straight from the comic pages.”

…comic pages?!

“Neither of you have known the touch of a woman, have you?” Sanji deadpanned.

“Like you’re one to talk!” Nami snapped. Sanji glanced over towards her and saw that a robe was now covering her as she scrambled to leave with, wait, Robin-chan was there too?! Oh, and they were there with Shinobu. He needed to make sure they got out safely, but with the way these two were… seas… ogling him, he wasn’t sure that they’d get out of there if he moved even an inch. “Keep them distracted! We’ll meet you later!”

“Nami-swan, I…!” Sanji reached out with his hand, but he was too late… she was gone. He let his hand clench into a fist and turned towards Hawkins and Drake, who both seemed too star-struck to care that potential captives were fleeing the scene. “You two made me lose my chance with Nami-swan!”

“I didn’t think he’d be based off a real person,” Drake marveled. He looked… deeply confused, but also like he wanted to screech happily like a little kid that just found a frog.

“You need to answer us something,” Hawkins said. He somehow narrowed his eyes further. “Something only the real Sora would know: how did you escape from Germa 66’s clutches in the Gezelligate Arc?”

Sanji was ready to murder something.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Law stood in the prison corridor, Drake not too far away, as he waited impaitently. He didn’t like doing it this way—neither did the dinosaur, it seemed—but at least it was doable. It could fit in his grand plan. Not very well, but it fit.

“Here you are,” Hawkins announced from around the corner. Law’s ears perked up and he watched as the aforementioned Supernova led Penguin, Shachi, and Bepo into view, all three of his crewmates half-in tears.

“We’re sorry, Captain!” Bepo sniffled. “We didn’t mean to get caught!”

“No worries,” he replied coolly. “I know something they don’t realize.

“What’s that?” Penguin wondered. Law simply smirked and opened a Room.

“The famed Warrior of the Sea is on our side.”

Before his crewmates had a chance to react, Law swapped them out with pebbles and dropped the Room. He held up his arms in surrender, unable to not laugh at the look of horror on Hawkins’s face.

“What’s the matter? Didn’t think I knew?” He felt Drake put seastone cuffs on him from behind, jostling him roughly. “Hey, watch the goods—I need those hands to perform surgery.”

“Like you have a medical degree,” Drake grumbled.

“…and for all I know, you’re probably still a cop,” Law scoffed. For that, Drake pushed him towards Hawkins, letting their prisoner stumble into the dirt floor. “Hit a nerve?”

“You know what? I don’t even care anymore.” Drake took a step back before turning to walk away. “Do whatever hoodoo nonsense you want to him. I’m washing my hands of it.”

“Hoodoo is a completely different discipline,” Hawkins droned, “but I’ll try.” He snapped his fingers and two Pleasures guards came by to lift Law from the floor and drag him off to a torture cell. “I’ll make him regret invoking the name of Sora.”

Law chuckled to himself as the mooks dragged him away. These two losers were in for it.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Okay, mooks taken out and transported to varied Flower Capitol alleyways, check. Hawkins—aka: Senior Mook—unconscious and bleeding out on the floor, check. His sword and hat back—check. Information he pried out of Senior Mook before allowing him to pass out. Check and noted. Law was feeling good as he got ready to leave the prison house. Just a few more moment of checking out the outlying areas with his Devil Fruit and he could accurately pinpoint a safe getaway. He stepped out into the corridor and began to walk out—he was a free man, after all.

“Trafalgar.” Oh, yeah, there was one more that he didn’t get rid of, though to be honest, it felt like an afterthought. He turned and saw Drake standing there, staring at him with an… well, the look eas cryptic, that was for certain.

“You’re not stopping me,” Law said casually. “I’m finding a place to go as we speak.”

“Then before you leave, I have a request,” Drake said. Law raised an eyebrow.

“What’s a not-cop want from a humble pirate like myself?”

“Do you think…” Drake blushed, not believing he was saying this. “I mean… could you get me an autograph from Sora?”

“We’re on different sides… you know that, right?”

“All my time I was in the Navy, he was their best-kept secret. To get an autograph from one of the best special ops agent? Whose solo work inspired all of us? It might get you a favor or two.”

“Hmm… I’ll think about it.”

In a flash, the man vanished and an upset tomcat appeared in his place.

Well, it was worth a shot.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

“What the fuck did you do to this thing?!” Sanji hissed, shoving his raid suit in Franky’s face. The cyborg simply scoffed and kept on eating.

“I improved it—made it super—just like you asked, brother,” he replied. It was the night before they were to raid Onigashima and all he wanted was some relaxation time before putting his nose to the grindstone. The surrounding area was a mishmash collection of their crew and varied allies, whether reluctant or not, the vast majority not paying attention to them. “I don’t know why you’re so pissed off.”

“I’m pissed off because I keep on running into weirdos and creeps who think I look like a comic book character!” Sanji complained. “Did you design it to look like something else, or did you use an original design?!”

“It’s just a little thing I remember from when I was a kid,” Franky shrugged. “Every so often in Water 7 we’d get these collection books of this super comic where a guy with a robot and pet seagull would fight bad guys. Only ever got a couple of books—flat broke compared with only ever seeing random volumes. Probably wasn’t something that did too well.”

“It did well enough that three different people have called me by the exact same name,” Sanji scowled. “What was the name of the comic?”

“I dunno—Sorne… Sorley… Sohan… Solly…” Franky snapped his fingers between each name as he tried to remember. “…Sorrel… Soslan… Sota… Sora…”

“That’s it!” Sanji shouted, pointing at Franky. Ooohhhhh… he couldn’t believe this was happening! “That’s what those nutjobs keep calling me!”

“Sora…?” A moment, then it clicked. “Oh yeah, that’s right! Sora, Warrior of the Sea! Kind of a weird series if you ask me. Total Naval propaganda. Then again, I was only really there for the robot…”

Sanji screamed in anguish and began to storm away, stomping his feet angrily as he went off to have an entire packet of smokes at once. He slammed his shoulder into Law on his way, which caused the other to stop and glare—what the hell…?

“What’s the matter with him?” he asked Franky. The cyborg simply shrugged.

“No whimsy,” he claimed. “Meanwhile, I’m full of it this week.”

Law simply shrugged and walked off—not his crew, not his problem.

-_-_-_-_-_-_-

It was the Raid on Onigashima. Sanji was attempting to hold his own against the throng of solders that were coming at him. Okay, so he wasn’t attempting so much as succeeding, but it was beginning to wear on his nerves that each time he knocked one of the Beast Pirate freaks down, five more popped up in their place. It was like there was a never-ending sea of them waking up and he smelled like breakfast.

Suddenly, over the din of the battle, Sanji heard a familiar scream. He looked up and saw that Kaidou was up on a balcony, holding Momonosuke over the drop that would have the boy splatter on the Performance Floor. As much as he wanted to trust that Momonosuke could turn into a dragon and fly away once let go, he also didn’t trust that Kaidou or any of his goons had gone and put seastone on—let alone in—the kid.

Shit. No matter what, this wasn’t going to be good. He could let the perverted little shrimp fall to his potential doom, but… Nami would be really pissed at him for letting that happen, wouldn’t she? Not to mention Luffy. Damn it. Sanji decided to break out the big guns and put on his raid suit, immediately cloaking himself in invisibility. The Beast Pirates he had been fighting all stared in confusion—there had been someone there before, wasn’t there?

As Sanji catapulted himself up into the air with Moonwalk, Kaidou did precisely what Sanji thought he would and dropped Momonosuke. Lucky, he was able to snatch the kid after he fell only a few feet, bringing him back up to Kaidou’s level while still invisible.

“What the fuck is this?” Kaidou slurred. He grabbed a large bottle of sake from a nearby Beast Pirate and took a swig—he clearly didn’t know if he was too drunk or not drunk enough. “I didn’t think little piss-brats like you could fly.”

“Who has hold of me?!” Momonosuke whispered in a panic. He grabbed hold of Sanji’s cape and attempted to pull it around himself. “Thank you.”

“Don’t thank me yet,” Sanji grumbled. Someone unseen threw a rock, meaning to hit Momonosuke but hitting Sanji in the side of his helmet instead. His cloaking device sparked before fizzling out—it overloaded and needed some time to reactivate.

“Who the fuck are you?” Kaidou frowned. He did not seem like he was very amused by the whole thing.

“Hey, I know that tech,” Queen realized. “You’re one of Judge’s brats, aren’t you?”

“Wrong: I’m Sora’s boy,” Sanji spat. Without another word, he turned on his heel mid-air and jettisoned himself towards the Performance Floor. There, he was able to spot a trio of Traffy’s men—the Mink and two of the ones with dumb hats—and he tossed Momonosuke at them. “Keep him safe until someone approved comes to get him, alright?”

“Yes, sir, Sora, sir!” Penguin said as he picked up Momonosuke. Shachi saluted. Fuck… more of them…

“Uh… guys…” Bepo seemed to be uncomfortable. “That’s just one of the Straw Hats��”

“Bepo, Bepo, Bepo…” Shachi tutted. “Here we thought we raised you right! The Captain said it’s Sora, so it has to be Sora!”

“…but that’s clearly…”

“Sora!” Stupid One and Stupid Two said in unison. Sanji honestly felt ready to kill them both, Traffy and the alliance be damned. At least the Mink was able to use his brain…

“There he is!” Sanji looked over his shoulder and saw Law, Hawkins, and Drake all running towards him. Shit! He turned his attention towards the Mink and nodded gravely.

“All of you are from the same place, aren’t you?”

“The North Blue, yeah,” Bepo said, “but I’m originally from Zou.”

“Then I thank you for your service,” Sanji replied. The Mink seemed puzzled, only to yelp in surprise as Sanji picked him up and tossed him at the three incoming Supernovas before running away.

Goddamned nerds needed to leave him the fuck alone!

you can throw rocks at me for this idc (you can't judge me more than i do), it was late and I thought sukuna milk jokes were so funny that this....this happened. posting here bc the poll told me to.

Chapter 1

Maybe at first, I forgot to eat. But as the deadline grew nearer, I became too anxious to consider food. And now, it's Halloween in shibuya. I wanted to go out. To do something fun and dress up. Or at least make it home, before the streets were crowded with drunk people. My coworkers have plans, costumes and now distance from this place...

It's just until I'm not the newest hire. Hazing is only temporary.

I blast nightcore music in my headphones, pushing away how creepy the Empty office is. Even during peak hours with sunlight, I swear the place is haunted.

But then again, stress and sleep deprivation can convince anyone of hallucinations. And they'd never speak coherently, anyway. Just lurking, And no one else seemed to notice.

I stretch out of my chair. It's gotten late. And I am desperate to get out of here. I put my headphones away. And i stumble to the first floor.

As fast as I can. The empty building echoes with. Some strange noise. Like it wants to collapse on me or something. Outside, the air is thick with sulphur and smoke. Are they doing fireworks now?

No, that's not right. I collapse on the edge of an alley. The streets are empty too. But there are two creatures very much alive. Attacking each other with flames, like some bizarre night demons. Are they flying? The shorter one keeps getting thrown into buildings. So maybe it is safer to be outside. At least whatever this is has scared the drunk people away and I won't have to worry about stepping in vomit. I'll get out of here soon. Stop being so lightheaded.

The fight draws nearer. And I can see them closer. The one who is clearly winning this fight… Has four arms. Human? The other one has one large eye and a volcano on his head. I haven't really seen anyone like that before. But if I still have my job after this, I might see him lurking around the corridors or in my peripheral.

They're far enough away that I can't hear what they're saying to each other. But it seems that it's coming to an end. The taller, more humanoid figure stands across from what looks like a pile of ashes on fire. It has the same slumped shape, now only recognizable by silhouette.

{Why was a curse spirit crying like that, anyway? Sukuna wonders, bored after killing Jogo.}

“Yo, that was sick. Nice,” i say from my spot against a wall, not expecting to be heard by anyone.

“Yes, thank you. It's good to be acknowledged.” he steps nearer. “But why are you so weak? It's like you haven't eaten.”

“Yeah, maybe that's it.” my voice is tired and careless, almost completely monotone.

“Well, why dont we cook up some of these arms? It would be a shame to let malevolent kitchen burn empty.”

I shoot him a weird look, uncertain how serious or funny he meant to be.

“Oh, come on. It could make you stronger! Or kill you," his voice sounds like it came from someone else on that last part, then returns to its usual growl. "And I can regenerate. Watch.”

He removes one of his 4 arms, somehow sliced smoothly without a weapon, then tosses it into a fire. “See? There.” it grows back as if he were putting on a sweatshirt and the sleeve had been rolled inside itself. I look down, feeling sicker.

“Oh well, i tried.” he paces away, glancing up at what's left of the city.

I stare when he steps through flames, reaches for something, and comes out unmarked. He then eats his old arm like a giant turkey's leg at a renaissance fair.

It actually smells pretty good... at least among the stench of burning rubble. its charred skin even looks edible, inanimate.

“Change your mind? Here,” he rips off a finger and throws it precisely into my hand. I am hungry and in need of food- that could be enough on its own to explain the nausea. the finger is wrinkled, crispy, and ethically sourced. I try to eat it like a chicken wing.

It isn't bad, the texture is pretty good and no spices were available. Maybe better if i close my eyes.

Maybe not. My teeth touch bone thicker than a chicken wing would have. I flinch and it slips away. When i catch it the long black fingernail presses against my hand. The feeling of that took it too far.

my palms collide with the ground, vomit spills between them. When it's done I turn away from the mess, slump into the wall like an alcoholic, the tremors of sickness setting in. i feel so much weaker than before. That isn't good. No one human is here now. only those who are dangerous had the capacity to stay behind. And me. Why me?

Tears begin to slide down my face. Pathetic. No easy death and no strength for me now.

“Aww, feeling dehydrated now, are we?” the demon's voice still rough and playful. “Oh, whats this? It seems my chest is crying too. Well, that's odd.”

he picks his half-eaten finger off the blacktop and flicks it away. Then he lifts me up, and when my vision focuses, I'm on top of a tall, mostly intact building. The orange glows from below outshine the stars tonight. Smoke obscures the distance, blowing least of all where we are.

“Come on now, help me with this.”

“What?"

He sighs and gestures to his chest. “You'll have to drink this out of me.” he sounds slightly defeated. drops of milk are dripping down from his nipples.

“That's weird,” i whisper through a painfully dry throat.

He sits with his legs crossed in and pulls me up to sit in that nest. Something about the scent, or pheromones, draws me in, something sweet and promising. Or maybe desperation for a drink. I begin to lick the drops away.

“I'm guessing it had something to do with you crying. that makes mommy tiddies cry too, right? And maybe you're like my child now from eating that finger… hmm…”

I'm a little surprised that a cannibal’s breastmilk could taste the way it does. Not strong, but sweet and cozy, like some spiced holiday drink. It's good, so i latch on, beginning to suck desperately at his nipple.

His arms seem to form a cradle, the way they support me. The heat from his body radiates onto my skin and filters down my throat.

“I guess i'll tell you how this works. So I was alive during the Heian era, just as I am now. Ryoumen Sukuna. When that life ended, i had a choice: to have my 20 fingers preserved and hope that some mortal would consume them, and then i could live on in their body. Which is i guess doable, but not ideal.

Option 2 was to become a curse womb, and essentially reincarnate when enough chaos and blood would have spilled in my name. Which, as you can see, is what happened here tonight.

Although I did just kill the curse that seemed to want me here the most.”

i let go of his nipple, and give it one last wide lick.

“Good, now get the other one dry too.”

i wrap my arms around him and reach for the next nipple. He only has 2 of them, but 4 arms and 2 faces. my mind wanders… what if they were different flavors… but it tastes the same.

Hi!

What do you think abou bartylus (for the ask game)?

fell asleep & didn’t see this one but ummm. do not ship

why don’t you ship it?

i don’t really care abt regulus outside of a few pretty specific contexts so i don’t really ship him w anyone except sometimes james bc many of my beautiful mutuals do write really good jegulus…same w barty like. idc abt him so i don’t ship him w anyone…i think he’s more interesting alone

what would have made you like it?

nothing lol. i think both of these characters can be interesting on their own in canon-compliant/adjacent settings but think putting either of them in a relationship takes much of the interest away for me…and outside of canon contexts the characterizations i most commonly see r so far removed from how i view them that i usually just look away peace & love xoxo

despite not shipping it, do you have anything positive to say about it?

ummmm. not really 🤧 sorry i just personally find this ship really boring lol

hi vic, im a casual mandalorian watcher so please yell at me if this is a stupid q but why did so many people not like season 3? and is din’s first name really djarin or did i get that wrong 🙃 (probably)

hello love! i love nothing more than talking about the mandalorian and the show’s connotation in the larger star wars universe so please ask away

i cannot speak for everyone but i will tell u why i personally did not enjoy it at all which was mostly the complete change in tone. now this is ME i’m talking about there were a lot of grievances about the season mostly that din was entirely sidelined throughout and basically relegated to a background character and lowkey turned into canon fodder imo in order to propel other characters to the forefront for the general audience which i feel was nothing more than a marketing strategy to later introduce new shows, movies etc. basically they turned the season into a stepping stone for what is now being called the “mandoverse” which will supposedly include a movie or some bullshit

honestly my gripe with it was not the new characters, i really like bo katan and her story and i wouldn’t have minded her taking center stage as much as i did if the tone of the show hadn’t so drastically changed. it jist literally felt like an entirely different thing we were watching - nothing to do with the series we’d previously seen, and what i loved about s1&2 and what i think a lot of people loved was the gun slinger / lone ranger father figure western vibes it originally boasted. it was somehow quintessentially star wars and also entirely far removed from the larger canon and it was just this story about this warrior and a little weird baby. all of that was entirely lost in season 3 in my opinion. it was no longer din and grogu’s story but merely a connection to the larger canonverse — the very thing that made it special for not doing at its conception

and i don’t even fkn know about his name HAHA so when they baptize grogu as a mandalorian or whatever the fuck they do at the end of the season they call him “din grogu” as he’s part of din djarin’s clan so everyone just assumed that meant din was not din’s first name and actually his surname and that djarin is his name name or whatever but i’m choosing to ignore that entirely idc what they meant and whatever they did mean is WRONG and what i think is RIGHT and that’s all i care about. his name is din and my character will be calling him din and that’s that on that !

3, 6, 13, 15, 16, 24, 29, 33, 39 for the Star Wars ask meme! GIVE ME ALL OF THE INFORMATION~!

aaaaaaaah so many numbers!! but I will GLADLY answer everything! 😁

3. Favorite character from the prequels: ANAKIN OF COURSE. I had a HUGE crush on him (and both of his actors) when I was younger. he quite quickly became my favorite character of all time after watching the original trilogy, so I have to say him for this 💙

6. Do you have any ships?: a few, yes!! mainly the ones that are canon, like Han/Leia, Cut/Suu, and Anakin/Padme, or ones that were semi-canon like Obi-Wan/Satine and Rey/Finn (despite what anyone says otherwise!!). there's also some that I wouldn't be mad about like Fennec/Boba and Din/Bo-Katan. my OTP though? Kanan/Hera. by FAR. like legit, that is one of my top OTPs in general. I love them so much 🥺💙

13. Would you want to be a Force user?: YES. VERY MUCH SO. being an empathetic and neurodivergent person, I often feel like I have "special powers" like Force users do. and who wouldn't want to be able to make stuff float all the time? (also, just sayin', if anyone has read any recent MLWTBB stuff, then this answer shouldn't be any surprise 😜)

15. Did you play any Star Wars video games?: yes!! I've played all the LEGO games and still play the newest one to this day 😁 also, the Podracer game for N64, Rogue Squadron for Gamecube (didn't care for that one though 😝), Battlefront 1&2 (2 is better!! and I LOVE the story for that one!!), and Squadrons! we owned both of the Force Unleashed games at one point, but I never tried playing them cause my bro said they were bad LOL. also, we own Fallen Order, but my bro said it's basically unplayable due to loading times, even on our PS5 😩

16. Have you read any Star Wars books?: only a few. I've read Phasma (my longest sigh ever 😞), Before The Awakening (the Poe story is the best!!), and some of the Breakout Squad books! I also have the first Poe Dameron comic, and LOTS of visual guides 😌

24. Would you want to be human, or from another species?: well I kept myself as human in MLWTBB so 😬 my favorite species are Devaronians though, so if I could be anything else, it would be that 😋

29. Which character doesn't get enough credit or screentime?: there's honestly a lot of characters I could put here, but I'm going to be completely biased and say Phasma and Crosshair. as much as I had... feelings about the Phasma book, herself as a character was one of the only interesting things in that entire story. she absolutely fascinates me and is such an interesting villain; that story really drives home just how cruel and selfish she is. also I just adore her and want to see more of her 😩🙏🏻 and I shouldn't even have to explain myself for Crosshair. he's one of the most interesting characters EVER created for SW. I want an entire series about that man. GIVE ME MORE OF HIM DANG IT 😤

33. Which movie have you watched the most?: honestly? it's probably The Phantom Menace. I've watched the original trilogy several times, but overall I'd say TPM has all three of those movies beat. mainly cause my bro liked to watch it as a kid haha

39. If you wrote a 'fix-it fic', what would you write about?: funny you should ask! I actually already am writing a fix-it fic! 😌 this isn't spoilers cause I've already talked about it before, but I'm changing Plan 99 for MLWTBB. despite wanting to keep that series as close to the show as possible, I simply can't remove Tech from the story. despite whatever might happen in season 3, Tech is making it out of Plan 99 in one piece. I've actually already written several chapters in this far-off future fic and have most of the rest of it planned out. idc if I have to completely alter the events of season 3 because of this, I refuse to lose my favorite nerd tyvm 😤 honestly, at this point, it's not even so much me condemning the choices of the writers, it's me showing grace and love to the character. Tech literally changed my life in the absolute best way possible, and I can't let anything bad happen to him because of that 🥺💙

[pwurrz]

uh. to put the games in chronological order it would be

fnaf 4: we play as the crying child as he lay in the hospital after the bite of 83. the minigames show the days leading up to the day he died, his birthday. the animatronics we see as the nightmares the crying child is having before he passes away at the end of the game.

fnaf 5: michael is told by his father to investigate an underground bunker connected to their house. there he finds a massive facility that houses the funtime animatronics, animatronics that never made it into the public eye because of an incident that occured opening day. this incident was of course elizabeth afton's death at the hands of circus baby. william had already killed children at this point because the reason he made the funtime animatronics was to lure and kill children in order to study remnant, a substance that allowed children murdered by animatronics or near them to have their souls bonded to the very endoskeletons of the animatronics. anyways this is when circus baby and the rest of the funtimes meld together to form an animatronic named ennard and use michael's hallowed out body as a way to escape.

fnaf 2: takes place in 1987, one of the rare occasions we get an actual year the events occured. besides fnaf 4 which ofc takes place in 1983. william has been shut out from any freddy's locations at this point. probably bc of all this missing and dead children he leaves behind everywhere he goes. this is their third? location. so the first missing kids incident takes place and when the bite of 87 takes place. after all that went down obviously they had to close and re-opened using remodeled versions of the old animatronics from the previous restaurant (the second one in the chain of many, many locations).

fnaf 1: takes place after the bite of 87 and is a direct sequel to the second game. we've known this since the second game came out. probably michael afton takes up the job of nightguard to do investigations into his father's crimes and is eventually fired for tampering with the animatronics. since it's the first game in the series we don't actually learn a lot at this point except for a) the bite of 87 happened and b) some kids went missing

fnaf 3: takes place in 2023. some dickwads open up a horror attraction to capitalize on the kind of urban legend that the freddy's restaurants had turned into. michael starts working here as a nightguard because of course he does and is rewarded in the form of his father's corpse, now melded to the spring bonnie animatronic (it's a long story). yay! a family reunion! too bad every family member michael meets is trying to kill him. turns out the people running this horror attraction managed to find a real aimatronic that had been left over from the fnaf 1 location and that was, of course, william. long story short michael tries to burn down the attraction and kill his child murdering father but is unsuccessful.

then finally fnaf 6: don't know how far into the future this is but it's after ennard has been forcibly removed by michael's body (you know. bc he was dying. and what's a dead body to a bunch of robots trying to blend in?) and was forced to live in the sewers and after the fnaf 3 attraction was burned down. henry emily, father of charlie and previous business partner of william is actually responsible for building a new freddy's location with the sole purpose of luring all the animatronics into one place so he can finally kill them all. michael once again takes this job because of course he does (shouldn't he be dead? don't worry about it). so boom it works and all the animatronics with souls attached to them including the original five murdered kids, elizabeth, william and charlie are lured to the location and burned, finally setting them free. henry and michael choose to stay behind and burn as well.

fnaf custom night: william's eternal purgatory/hell, basically. idek if it's canon to the timeline but if it is this is where it fits in.

idc about security breach or help wanted as they relate to the lore. i'm just gonna say the story wrapped up in 6 because that's the best possible timeline that makes the most sense!

also this isn't like. a description of the lore it's just a timeline for me to decide where to start when talking about the lore. also if i got anything wrong let me know (anything canon that is, most of the stuff we have is just heavily implied or speculation anyways lmao)

[cheswirls]

opened main gdocs writing folder so here we go again

i have folders in this main folder for all the properties i have 10+ docs for but i rly need to do anything else so im only gonna dig at stuff at the bottom of this main one

holy fuck there's a lot of magi.

tswf is still there and i'll be damned if i never go back to that one. loved the set-up so much w/ sinja adopting aladdin. i think i had jaf as an emt bc i remember he was gonna copy rly bad w the stress of the job by relying on drugs. there was some plot w alibaba getting into trouble but i dont remember with who or what besides kassim was involved. there were sooooooo many storylines for this one. i wanted sin to have an unusual major for uni and idk if i picked a legit job you need engineering bg for or if it was a trade school thing bc it sounds like one. have it written he's a tech that takes care of removing armed explosives stuck in the ground that never activated for w/e reason. it wa ssupposed to have him out traveling a lot but i never did pick a real world location for the setting so ig he could be in the area or even the same country. damn all of these plot pts are depressing af. there are 71 pages in the doc.

haikyuu atla au :) this is oldie but goodie. i do still adore atla aus set during the 100 yr war that could've happened bc it doesn't interfere w canon at all. where ur blorbos from other fandoms are jus some Random Guys. read an iwaoi fic like this and it was so good. i think i wanted to emulate that could-have-been so while plotting i came up w reasons for why someone impt would go mia and such. it was boku/aka set in the northern water tribe not long after the start of the war. bokuto was an envoy from omashu tasked with acquiring help and allying with the nwt. akaashi was the crown prince who by the end of the fic runs off w a team during one of the first and only fire nation attempted invasions. it was going to end with bokuto finding his betrothal necklace among the rubble and going after him.

there was a sequel i prolly thought more abt at some point than the original, considering theres a separate doc w writing already in it. the premise was switching pov of akaashi and bokuto, except akaashi's was in the past depicting he n his team assisting in the war efforts (and running into semi ig. some sort of firebender) and bokuto's pov starts with his reunion w/ akaashi and continues in present. think i was inspired by a lauren oliver novel tho idk which one. the time difference appealed to me. anyway at some point in the present they run into fire nation deserters kenma and kuroo and roll out w them (jeong-jeong is still the first deserter a la canon bc these 2 kill every witness and fake death to get away). and uhhhh i remember it ends at the swamp. with akaashi deciding to stay at the swamp in some bout of hopelessness. bc its far too soon for them to do anything to impact a war that will rage on for another 80+ years and the swamp is considered "safe and distant" and peaceful to an extent. lotta fun there would love to write both of these

i still have the bnha aristocats!au set during ww1 france and also they are not cats. still seems like a fun idea but idc abt bnha at allllllll anymore so perhaps i will axe this one.

everything else is 2020 which i think is safe. there's a couple dcmk ideas i wanna go back to. one of them is a pkmn au so :))))) yea. i think it was kaito&shiho on the run from team rocket for diff reasons and shinichi gets roped into helping them by being their third/traveling companion. fun stuff. the other was an attempt at a realistic kaishin run-in that i hadn't seen done before (or that i liked the execution of) so purely self-indulgence. kaito and ran are paired for a uni chem project and the topic they're presenting ends up being the key to solving a murder case. fun stuff :)

i had another magi longfic idea where al tharmen is a doomsday cult disbanded and aladdin is the young ward they worshiped as the chosen messiah as the son of solomon. he's taken in by ja'far who has to socialize a kid raised from birth by a cult. the only stand-outs i remember is playing around with trans!titus and him and sphintus having a baby near the end of the fic. titus becomes like a brother figure to aladdin n him and schehe live across the hall. sinbad is mia but still involved enough in ja'far's affairs to be a nuisance even from overseas. there was smth there abt a reunion between the two but it wasnt a sinja story. that one would be fun but the research aspect gah damn

i'm sure i have more fic ideas lurking in my tumblr drafts from years ago but idk idk this is long enough as is. i do remember the big toaru au (there were 3 but this was the Big tie-everything-in-canon-together one) where all the lvl 5s have to work together as they're hunted by aihana etsu. wanted to finish reading gt novels before diving in and that never happened but hooooooooly is that post long af under a read more i was not messing around w plotting. the other was a scifi attempt w astral buddy cast i would still love to revisit.

everything else is still recent enough that i dont hate it haha. not sure why the last three paragraphs other than rambling abt old ideas ive never revealed before. there! have at it

looking @ old fic i started when i was 14/15 is so funny bc im realizing once again why i never mark fics as abandoned even if its been literal years since i've touched them. specifically i was checking docs for stuff i started and either did or didn't post to ffn.

and its like. nothing is bad??? like i can see where my outside-the-box ideal of fic writing comes from. not just fics but writing in general, i'm p sure. even if it's a total cliche plot setup, there are details on each that rly make it stand out like oh yeahhhhhh i did have this great idea once upon a time.

funny too bc was it executed well in prose??? no absolutely not i wrote like shit when i was 15. would i revive an idea one day and revise it to be less cliche or cringy while still keeping the stand-out elements??? yea maybe. i might. everything i'm currently working on that i started from 2021 up to now still holds my supreme interest, but like i'm not gonna say never.

esp since i write fic first and foremost for my own need and specifically what i like to read, it makes it impossible to consider an idea i've thought extensively about "not worth writing anymore". anyway not making this too long i jus found everything interesting to consider

A snort left your mouth before you lazily stuck a chip in it. You had long since been eliminated in the final round, now snacking as you watched. All attacker drones were gone which left you with little else to do. Tori leaned over to look at your phone as the pair of you looked at the international news. "Damn that's messed up." She muttered as you looked at the article.

"This is why parasocial relationships are so dangerous I suppose. Ah but I'm not really a psychologist." She took a chip from your packet when you directed it to her.

"More of Harry's whole thing isn't it?"

"Wonder what he would have to say about it."

"Text him it." You forwarded the article towards Harry.

'Thoughts 👀?' There was a swift reply and the pair of you looked up to see where Harry was spectating.

 'Ah, I see this is what the pair of you are up to.'

"He won't tell us off for not spectating will he?" You turned to her and she gave you a shrug.

"No idea, probably not." A small vibrate caused the pair of you to look down at the phone.

 'I will look at it later and would be happy to give you my opinions :-)'

Both Tori and you snapped your heads up when it was announced that the attackers won. "Oh damn." A very happy-looking Elias joined Håvard and Mike. Tori let out a whistle and they joined you all, sweat covered them far more than the pair of you. Håvard squeezed in between you and Tori and placed an arm around you.

"Did you see that shot I pulled off? Nothing beats these reflexes." He grinned his signature picture-perfect smile. With a flick, you removed his arm and rolled your eyes.

"Nah cams were shit. We saw fuck all." Tori spoke and Håvard's face fell.

"Yeah, we were reading this article about this fan who went bat shit crazy after they finally met this big-time actor who was super creeped out."

"Tried to kidnap them and got shot."

"Whereabouts was this?" Elias asked as the group started to walk towards the locker rooms.

"There isn't going to be any left." Alexsandr pulled the bucket away from you and a small whine left your mouth.

"States." Both Tori and you said at the same time. You handed the phone to Mike and Elias who started to read it together, Håvard's great performance long since forgotten about.

The five of you had found comfort in the theatre room. Meghan sat to your right while Lera had made her home in front of her. To your left, Alexsandr had stretched out primarily into your seat which gave Tori plenty of room in front of him. It was Meghan's night to pick the film, however, the group of you were still waiting for Elias and Gustave. "Did Gustave cancel again?" Elias asked as he walked into the room, hand in his pocket. His focus was on you due to you working closely with the doctor. "He didn't mention anything to me." You shrugged and popped more of the popcorn in your mouth.

"Alex you suck, give it back." Elias laughed and he took the bowl from Alex's stretched-out hand.

"Nooo, Elias you asshole." He stuck out his tongue in response and you could practically hear Meghan's eyes roll as she spoke.

"Children, the lot of you."

"Ah but Meghan can't you see this great injustice?"

"What's going on here?" Before she could reply Gustave walked into the room, his brow slightly raised.

"Gustave, we are friends are we not?" You practically tumbled over your words and he narrowed his brows and folded his arms in the doorway.

"I would consider us to be friends on the usual occasion, yes. But something tells me there's more to this."

"I have been wronged, Gustave. Burgled. A crime has taken place."

"Right…"

"I mean you never take someone's food." Tori agreed under her breath.

"Someone gets it! Alex and Elias have plotted against me and stolen the popcorn."

"You were going to eat it before Meghan had even put on the movie." Alex patted your head.

"Ah, this dreadful heroless world." You fake cried out and Gustave chuckled before he took his place in front of you.

"Is everything alright in here?" Håvard popped his head into the theatre as Meghan set up the film.

"Uh yeah-"

"Oh, you guys watching a movie? Sweet." He rushed in and pushed through the group and sat between you in Meghan. There hasn't been much room to begin with, which forced Meghan more to the side. "Popcorn? Nice." He reached over and snatched the bowl from Elias's hands before he shoved some into his face. There were glances around the room yet no one said anything. "Want some?" He offered to you and you shook your head and weakly offered Meghan a smile.

"So what are we watching?" He asked as the theatre started to go dark.

"Train to Busan. Grace recommended it to me. It's a horror film. Zombies"

"A horror?" He leaned over to not so quietly whisper in your ear. "Your welcome to hold my hand if you get too scared."

"I'm good thanks."

"Wait a zombie horror film? Is this going to be like Cargo when you, Gustave and Lera spent the entire film talking about the specifics of the virus and its symptoms?" Elias teased

"That was very interesting I do admit. Even if the film wasn't the best." Gustave confessed.

"Hey, Tori spent the entire time trying to figure out where in the hell in Aussie it was filmed."

"I was close."

"It was like twenty film locations I don't think it counts." You fussed and Elias groaned.

"You did this to yourself, Elias. Shouldn't have brought it up again." Lera spoke over her shoulder.

With a promise that you wouldn't stay up too late, Gustave had retired for the night leaving you to be alone in the infirmary. A sigh left your lips as you looked at the results of your test. The application rate of the stitches was fast, but not fast enough. "Hey what you got there?" A familiar voice echoed behind you and you let out a huff trying to focus on your work. "It's a stick-on stitches, designed for combat. All you need to do is apply it, then pull this tab across and you're done." You pointed at the parts of plastic.

"It's okay you don't have to act tough on my behalf I have you here." Håvard winked and placed his hand on your knee. It was soon removed as you brought your knees up to your chest and leaned your head on it so his arm would have nowhere to lay. A movement you were forced to take when Håvard ignored Alexsandr's glares.

"Hey, that's amazing, that could be really useful." Håvard placed his head on your shoulder and steadied himself by placing both hands on your hips.

"Håvard…" you went to tell him off when his voice continued.

"How come this doesn't have widespread usage yet?"

"It's cousin which it's inspired by does, for smaller wounds. But this is designed for larger wounds. At the moment I'm still unhappy with the application time, the adhesive that I'm currently using takes too long to set." His hand drifted a little lower onto the top of your thigh and you squirmed under his hold. "If you would be so kind to let me go I have work I need to continue." You rolled your shoulder to bump his head off and grabbed his hands before you threw them off.

"Aww come on, take a break. We could have some fun."

"Håvard, I need to continue my work. Besides I'm already in a happy relationship."

"You don't need to play hard to get, I promise I'm already interested. Don't worry I'm not just a man about the chase, I promise I won't let you go afterwards." He leaned forward, his lips now at your ear. "Besides it's just you and me here, we can do whatever we want." Unknown to the pair of you, that statement was quite false. With a bag of takeaways in one hand, Alexsandr had intended to surprise you with dinner but now stood in the doorway, examining the scene before him. It was obvious that you were uncomfortable, and it was obvious that Håvard couldn't see that. With a few large strides, Alexsandr placed the bag silently on the table behind you. Then a choked sound escaped Håvard's mouth in surprise.

Alexsandr had picked him up by the back of his neck and ripped him away from you. In one swift movement, he then threw him forward and Håvard stumbled into the wall. A groan left Håvard's lips as he caught himself with his hands and slowly rolled onto his back, trying to process what happened.

Fury held Alexsandr's eyes as he pinned Håvard to the wall, much to your side shocked eyes. Airflow was cut off to the man but was the least of his problems as Alexsandr's fist smashed into his face. Håvard's attempts to stop him by putting up a hand to claw at Alexsandr's face were quickly stopped when Alexsandr grabbed his arm and with a twist a sickening crack echoed in the infirmary causing Håvard let out a howl. He was shoved to the floor and Alexsandr slowly started to step on the broken arm. "You will not touch them again. You will not harass or even look their way. If you ever communicate outside of combat and training matters I will promise you, this will be a daydream compared to what I will do to you."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Håvard cried out, slapping his free hand on the ground.

"It's not me you need to be apologising to, it's them." Alexsandr's eyes lifted to see your shocked expression.

"I'm sorry please I won't do anything again I promise."

"Alex, he's had enough, you can let him go." Reluctantly he lift his foot off the man. Blood poured from Håvard's messed up face, his nose no doubt broken and your hands went immediately to your phone to ping Gustave. Alexsandr let out a grunt and grabbed the bag before he left the room. Frozen you spent a few moments staring at where Alexsandr had been and where Håvard whimpered on the ground. Eventually, your mind snapped out of it and ran out of the room to follow Alexsandr. His name was called from your mouth when you eventually neared him. He sat down in the empty dorm room and looked away from you.

"I apologise, I lost my anger." Regret filled his face and you kneeled in front of him. "I always teach my children to use their words first and fight last and yet…"

Your hand cupped his cheek and lift it so his eyes were forced to meet yours. "Thank you for looking after me." Your lips slowly rose to meet his but you were soon interrupted by the ping from your phone.

 'I'm not going to question why but thank you for notifying me.'

"You told Gustave?"

"Håvard will get medical attention sooner or later. This way I won't be the one to deal with it." You pocketed the phone and Alexsandr leaned forward and picked you up into his lap.

"I hate the way he touched you, so much." He muttered into your ear and you slowly started to pet his hair. "At that moment, if you had said he deserved worse I would have killed him."

"Alexsandr…"

"I mean it." His eyes met yours and it was a promise.

"I wouldn't ever ask that of you."

"I know, perhaps that is why of the reasons why I love you so much."

"I was terrified Alexsandr, I still am." He swallowed and flinched at your touch. "Not of you, but the consequences of your actions. I don't want you to lose your job."

"Kali will not let this go." He muttered and you felt your stomach twist. "She may take risks and have a different style to us but she wouldn't allow any type of sexual harassment to stand." His words shocked you.

"You think she won't push this? Håvard is her operative."

"I like to think I have a good read on people. Do not worry my dear. I will be fine." He kissed your hand and the sound of your stomach rumbling. At the sound, Alexsandr's face smoothened to normal expression and turned to the table. "Here, I had intended to give it to you earlier but you should eat. It's late."

"Thank you."

I love it when people talk about things they're passionate about, tell me something cool!! Anything you want, just something you find interesting or want to talk about :D

hello anon my beloved, I am in a bad mood so you will be receiving a passionate, yet lowkey of pissy rant about why villainizing bakugou makes me wanna vomit and its NOT just because I'm a dumbass kinnie :)

tws: child abuse (emotional and physical), near death expierences, bullying, kidnapping, suffocation, lots of trauma in general tbh. if you've seen bnha then basically just keep all the general triggering plot stuff in mind incase i missed any warnings

also, note: I havent caught up on bnha in a minute, I'm at like the start of the war arc but I barely remember shit there tbh so like. probs missing new stuff. also bnha spoiler warnings lol

so, for starters, the homie bakugou has like,, a good handful of issues that come from his childhood that explain why he's an ass. he was always praised and never actually reprimanded for being a twat which led to him having a huge ego that ended up fucking him over majorly. this ego was something that his mother acknowledged him having, but literally didnt try to fix it with anything other than violence. see here:

like, instead of trying to help him, she hits and insults him, which is probably what led to his weird inferiority/superiority complex. being constantly told by others that you're outstanding and one day you'll be a top hero because you're rude and aggressive and then going home and being hit by your mother for those exact same behaviors is bound to fucking confuse a child.

so like, now that we've established that its definetly canon that his mother (parents? I think he said parents at some point but masaru doesn't seem like the type so 🤷) hits him though we don't know how much or how often (though if bakugou was as much of a little shit back then ((which as far as we've seen- he was)) then it was probably often), lets talk about how regardless of all that 1) hitting your kids as "discipline" not only doesn't work but is abusive lol like idc if it's spanking/popping them on the mouth for talking shit, slapping them across the face "on occasion", etc. shits not okay 2) hitting your kids!!!! does not work!!!!!!!! it is literally PROVEN not to work!!!!!!!! hitting a child who has done something wrong doesnt teach them to stop doing something it teaches them to be scared of you, which will cause the child to withdraw, removing part of their support system (assuming said abusive parents would even offer that up) and will most likely lead to them thinking they're a bad person, not that their actions were bad, which are two different things. so, ya know, that would clearly have an effect on a kid. like, as someone with a mother who reminds me all too much of mitsuki: I have acted like a complete shitbag and taken my anger out on people to feel better in the past because of the way my mother treated me. though it was nowhere near what bakugou did, I still know first fucking hand what a mother hitting and insulting her child will do, especially if they have no proper outlet for that (friends, a safe place to vent) which bakugou never fucking had.

theres also the fact that just talking to your kid the way mitsuki does (saying it's his fault he was kidnapped because he's weak, all while hitting him) is not??? okay?????? ive seen people arguing that this was just a joke in poor taste but like her son was KIDNAPPED and even if it was a "joke" there's literally NO WAY that would EVER?? BE FUNNY??????? she just sounds like the kind of parent who at the very least says shit without thinking that would traumatize bakugou (because being told right after being kidnapped it's your fucking fault by your mother is absolutely traumatizing) but it comes across as her being emotionally abusive.

mitsukis character as a whole comes across as a shitty mom who doesn't realize she's a shitty mom and thinks bakugou being an ass isn't at least partially her fault even though she's admitted to realizing he has always had an ego problem and doing nothing to fix it except for hitting and yelling which obviously did nothing but make him just as loud and violent as she is.

this is obviously not the entire reason why he's a dick but he was never properly taught that the shit he was doing wasn't okay and people not stopping it and/or praising him endlessly even tho he was a bully is basically the same as encouraging it, thank you very much.

moving on from that, let's talk about bakugous other traumas and how he naturally responds to them. hint: it's with either full blown panic or a fight response (verbal or physical, though usually physical. also sometimes it's the panic followed by the fight response.)

so far in bnha (keep in mind that I am not caught up, I've only read up to the beginning of the war arc and i barely remember those bits so) bakugou has...

nearly died via sludge villain (he was unable to move and was being suffocated to death- keep this in mind)

lost for the first time ever and against deku of all people (this nearly sent him into a full blown panic attack, likely because of that sexy little inferiority/superiority complex combo. think of this as like. gifted kid burnout lite. he has always been the best of the best and now suddenly he is being beaten by somebody who has always been weaker than him, which immediately makes him start thinking he was never actually that good, he's actually a fucking failure, a goddamn fraud)

won the sports festival by default (bakugou counts this as yet another failure because todoroki didnt try his best. had bakugou lost to todoroki full strength, he would've taken 2nd place with a bit of bitching, but he still wouldve taken it rather than refuse the medal as it would be a reminder that he failed. instead of accepting that like UA shouldve, the staff chained and muzzled him on live television and then had all might, his fucking idol, force the medal into his mouth. remember the sludge villain incident and how he couldnt move and was suffocating to death? yeah.)

been kidnapped because of the way he reacted to winning during the sports festival (he was aggressive and tried to refuse the medal because he felt he didnt deserve it and was then retraumatized by being chained up and muzzled. his "villainous attitude" was a fucking trauma response, do not tell me otherwise)

was then chained up once again by the LOV after being kidnapped,,, do we see the "retraumatize bkg" theme yet?

"ended all might" (he literally blames himself for all mights retirement because had he just not have been weak, all might wouldve had more time, right?)

my point with all of these is that bakugou has been severely traumatized and has then had his trauma responses (aggression, fight) used to further demonize him. not all people with trauma react the fucking same and the way the fandom just refuses to acknowledge anger as a valid form of trauma response is gross as hell.

moving away from that topic, bakugou has literally never had any actual friends, they all just used him and didn't care about him which absolutely will fuck up a kid, especially one who already has all that other shit going on. bakugou deadass never had a support system or people to help him grow as a person, let alone properly work through his fucking emotions so it's not surprising that he would take out his bullshit on the one person who tried to help him especially considering he saw dekus actions as him thinking he was weak. bakugou was raised to not seek help, he thought somebody strong shouldnt ever need it, so for somebody like deku (who bakugou percieved as weak and helpless already) to offer up help? deku must obviously think bakugou is even weaker than him, what other explanation could their possibly be!

speaking of which, there's his heaps of insecurities that he basically hid by being a twat and bullying others for most of his life. kid was so insecure he bullied deku for fucking years cause he thought deku looked down on him, thought he was better than him, etc. and that only got worse bc his idol then decided to take deku in, train him and even give him his quirk. there's probably some shit im missing but still he's got issues and always has had issues. that being said, he's actually improving and working them out now which is what makes him a really good, interesting character. it's also nice to see a character who is a dick without some tragic backstory (like his backstory is sad but its not the classic "my family was fucking slaughtered and i turned into a raging bitch who murders people" type shit) bc that rarely happens and it's like most assholes don't actually have a story like that they're just assholes lol

now lets talk improvement! lil bitch has been getting better since he got into UA and im so happy abt it!! he had a rough start what with deku suddenly having a quirk and all but like he is really improving now and it highkey shows that bakugou just mostly needed people who 1) didn't constantly praise him and actually criticized him instead 2) actually fucking punished him doing stupid shit and 3) some motherfucking friends

Since going to UA he's gotten actually feedback from teachers about his weaknesses and how to get stronger, he's lost against others, hes been told he has a shit attitude and is a dick, told he should be nicer and leave deku alone, etc etc. He hasn't gotten in trouble too much with teachers but others give him shit for what he does and aizawa has punished him too, while still acknowledging that bakugou is an amazing and dedicated student, something which no one else had done up til that point. and uh???? homie actually has friends who like,,, don't use him and also call him out when he's a dick. like specifically kirishima has done this shit and him and bakugous relationship is clearly very healthy and beneficial for the both of them. makes me feel all happy n shit, ya know

bottom line is: while it is absolutely valid to dislike or even hate bakugou because he is a massively flawed person who has been very cruel to others, villainizing him for the way he acts which in large part seems to be from a lack of guidance, a shitty mother and heavy amounts of trauma, is fucking awful. his actions cannot be fucking excused, he needs to apologize and continue to grow, but he is also a fucking teenager, who is just now being told that the way he acts is unacceptable by people who dont fucking abuse him (and I swear to god if any people who think mitsuki isnt abusive interact with this fucking post I will fullstop hardblock you, I do not fucking care) and actually treat him like a normal person instead of some prodigy child or someone who needs to be fixed.

people are free to debate my points or whatever bc I know some of this stuff is up to interpretation but like. dni if you're just here to say you hate bakugou for xyz reason or that he's irredeemable. also especially dni if you compare him to fucking endeavor yall bitches make me gag.

anyways thxs for the ask anon <33 sorry this is a kinda messy info dump lol
