Buggy in Wonderland AU

An AU where Buggy is Alice and Shanks is the Queen of Hearts/Red Queen

//yan!shanks

• when Buggy was younger he ends up in wonderland and befriends a red haired boy with a straw hat

• years later he thinks it was just his active imagination and forgets about those adventures

• but then he sees a rabbit running around wearing a familiar straw hat

• he follows it down a rabbit hole and ends up in wonderland

• after some adventures and meeting wonderland's residents, he reaches the queen's castle

• the ruler seems friendly but also feels familiar and Buggy isn't sure why

• he's very accomodating — always inviting Buggy to tea parties or extravagant balls, giving him a nice room w a large bed, sending him expensive jewelry and valuable gifts everyday, things like that

• but the more Buggy spends time with him, the more he realizes that Shanks seems intent on keeping him in this world

similar cinematographic choices to portray the same imagery with insanely different circumstantial contexts

thinking about the different ways indigeneity is represented in utb…how both cam and warren are disconnected and isolated from their indigenous identities…how this has led to cam becoming a cop, essentially becoming a footsoldier for the same system that failed her + is continuing to fail these kids, and her journey to recognizing the limits of policing + limits of doing good within a fundamentally violent system…how for warren (irl, i know, but hopefully also represented in the last episode?) reconnecting w his métis identity was crucial to reaching accountability for his role in reena’s death via restorative justice circles…how indigenous practices might provide insight into how we can imagine accountability and justice outside of carcerality

It’s almost crazy to think back on it- How a single man had managed to put a complete halt to he and Benkei’s years of rivalry. Shinchiro Sano had not looked like much when he came marching into the fray, spouting some nonsense about needing to unify the Kanto gangs underneath a single banner. Such sentiment was ridiculous in Wakasa’s mind, he was having far too much fun as the White Leopard of Kodo Rengo- Twelve gangs from eastern Kanto that had successfully merged beneath Wakasa’s leadership and infamous fighting prowess. While he saw the merit in increasing their numbers, his ascension was that of violent conquest- Not through buddying up to others and licking each other’s wounds, that was so disgustingly weak it made him want to throw up.

Benkei of Ragnarok’s 3rd generation had been so talked about, that Wakasa knew they had to fight- His very blood sang with excitement and pure joy whenever the other bosozoku leader’s fist managed to swing mere centimeters from his smirking face, as if Arashi were trying to punch that manic grin straight off of Imaushi’s jaw.

Some lanky beanpole with hair slicked back into a classic pompadour simply raised his arms, even managed to grab Wakasa’s extended ankle when he tried to deliver a savage spin-kick, effectively flipping him into the air like a damn pancake. After landing on his ass like a fool, he managed to witness Benkei literally stomp Sano’s head into the damn pavement- Enough to give any man a concussion, bleeding, and possibly a caved in nose. Shinichiro had simply forced himself back up, his eyes wide and filled with a strange intensity that shook even the White Leopard to his very core. Benkei had to move his own leg to keep himself from being thrown around by the thigh like a sack of rice.

Ever since then, Wakasa and Benkei had followed Sano and formed the Black Dragons beneath his leadership. While Shinichiro was the in-title Head of BD, he actually shared his power with his Captains- Making them not only integral to the formation of their units, but also trusted confidants he could rely on to help keep things balanced. Only they were able to get away with criticizing Shinichiro’s choices and decision-making abilities, because he understood that they would be speaking earnestly and prioritizing the values and Code of Honor they followed as bosozoku members.

He’d felt like a complete idiot, like some weird stalker or a lovesick admirer- Waiting for Sano outside of the school gates. Wakasa wasn’t a sentimental type and didn’t even really consider his own subordinates to be ‘friends’ on any level, yet Shinichiro had managed to gain his complete respect and trust during that legendary clash between Kanto’s east and west. Much to his own shock and complete exasperation, he even started using a cutesy nickname around the other male- Having previously shown little more than irritation and stand-offish resistance to Sano’s insistence on referring to him as ‘Waka-chan’ in public. Even Benkei astutely picked up on the fact that Waka was far less impulsive and bad-tempered around Shinichiro’s presence, his own tendency to feel restless, bored, and alone in the world having evaporated completely.

Every day was a blast, even when he wasn’t kicking someone in the face, or throwing another delinquent into his weak-ass pals like a bowling ball into stacked pins. Hanging around convenience stores, eating out together, visiting the Sano’s crazy family household- Even those more peaceful and down to earth moments were special, something that Imaushi hadn’t experienced before in his life, not even in childhood.

It wasn’t like him to space out in the middle of a conversation, but the words Shin was currently speaking only seemed to register as noise, rather than Wakasa’s brain actually processing their meaning and intent.

“Ah- My bad, Shin-chan. I totally spaced out like whoa,” he admits, his odd reliance on slang terminology often seeming ‘out of character’ for someone as capricious and quick to violence as Imaushi was.

Fin sighed quietly, glancing off towards the side at the comment.

"...thanks." They didn't believe her, but it was nice to hold on to all the same. The brunet wasn't willing to look at Mode as the two walked side-by-side, feeling the breeze moments after it danced through the tree leaves nearby.

"Well...yeah." He couldn't let anyone know about the extent of what his Quirk was, after all. "But Yagi is quiet from time to time...and it's not that awkward silence where I'm tryin' to find somethin' to say. It's always...nice. I guess he just likes having some time where he doesn't have to speak, since he's so used to having to pick and choose his words with the public." Though Fin hoped that Toshi never felt like he had to pick and choose his words around them...that was probably asking too much.

"...y-yeah...apparently,...his eyes glow when he experiences a really intense emotion...I'm pretty sure it's a side affect.." And by God, did that make their heart skip every time.-- Well. Their face was blazing now. Fuck. "--It's so cool."

"...'m not 'cute'. But...thanks. It's kinda hard not to be smitten for him..." Fin grinned a little. "...I hope you get to find someone too, Mode.- You're the best catch I know, after all!" They turned their head towards the other, smiling up at her. "And if anyone ever breaks your heart, lemme know and I'll stab 'em." They were joking, of course...

They were just glad Mode was willing to put up a little with them rambling- even if it was over their simple love life.

"Oh! Do y'wanna head to the cafeteria? I heard Lunch Rush was making boba tea for whoever heads in today." And they'd absolutely be trying to snag some with popping pearls instead of tapioca... While it wasn't the least quiet place to hang out, it was still food- without having to venture into the streets right now. The last thing Fin wanted was a paparazzi swarm.

Chapter 622

[navree]

gonna be entirely honest the ten shitmillion 'can't believe they abandoned adding queerness to alicent because she has sex with a man' takes accompanied by all the screaming and crying and throwing up absolutely REEK of biphobia, and that's not a good look for y'all during pride

short nsfw ghoap idea below cut. (cw for super super mean ghost, some cbt, and topping from the bottom)

i read a (dark romance) book once where the Dom let the sub fuck him, but he wanted the sub to never want to fuck him again so he made him wear a condom - but he coated the inside of the condom in like, itching cream or icy hot or smth like that so that while the sub fucked him he was just miserable, couldn't do anything but lay there in pain while the Dom rode him to hell and back

anyways. ghoap, right?

soap who begs for weeks to fuck ghost, wants to try topping so so badly, and ghost keeps shutting him down every time. until he's getting a little too bratty with it, and out of nowhere ghost says yes. soap is taken off guard, but obviously he still wants to fuck ghost so he's all in

except ghost fucks with him :/ makes him wear a condom coated with [something], maybe even makes him wear a second just to make sure that none of it leaks through. so all soap can feel is the discomfort, really to the point of pain.

and soap is sooooo miserable beneath ghost :( whining and crying and writhing, pitching such a fit because he's just so so so upset. and ghost is riding him, keeps rolling his eyes and slapping johnny across the face, asking him why he's bitching so much when he's been begging for this for weeks? tells him to suck it up, has to keep pulling off and jacking him so he doesn't go soft.

johnny is sobbing by the end, teary and wrecked and begging ghost to just get off :( simon says he can't, says soap isn't fucking him good enough, rolls johnny onto his stomach and fucks him - leaves his dick wrapped up though. gets himself off and finally sighs contentedly, rolls off soap and relaxes like everything's right in the world

and poor johnny is just the picture of distress. he's on his back as soon as he can move again, pawing at ghost and nearly shouting as he begs for the condoms to be taken off, but refusing to do it himself because he's scared of more punishment.

ghost acts like it's a hardship, like johnny's just the neediest little thing, but he tugs the condoms off and smiles when johnny sobs out thank you over and over again.

ghost makes him go wash himself off in the bathroom (alone, cause he's far too comfortable to get up), and holds his arms open for johnny to dive right into when he comes back. it takes a while for him to calm down, but simon holds him the whole time, teases him for not being able to handle fucking him <3 johnny never asks to again

"kieran!"  the  delighted  shout  muffles  towards  the  end  as  iris  tackles  kieran  in  a  back  hug,  and  smiles  against  the  man's  shoulder.  eyes  shine  brightly,  full  of  warm  adoration.  thinking  about  kieran  makes  him  happy,  but  actually  being  together  with  kieran  makes  him  fucking  elated.  "hey,  guess  what?"  he  punctuates  the  playful  question  with  a  kiss  on  kieran's  cheek.  "i  got  you  something."  iris  passes  over  something  soft  into  kieran's  hand.  it's  a  retriever  plush  keychain.  light brown puppy with a big, red heart between his paws. same  character  that  iris  gifts  kieran  emoji  sets  of.  "when  i  saw  this  lil'  guy─"  iris  taps  on  the  red  heart  the  puppy's  holding,  "─i  knew  he  had  to  go  home  with  you."

what affection language are you?

an undoing influence

Can someone tell you what to do? You have been carrying so much love within you for so long it is starting to turn into anger (why does it matter, all you see is red anyways) and you have been dragging this body through each day and every night you are split open on your bed and it is so so so lonely. If someone were to walk in while you were on your bed that way and they stitched you back in a new way, lining the seams with their love and kisses, you’d probably find this dreary world a little more bearable. You want someone to turn you over and over until you look in the mirror and see yourself looking back at yourself with a gentleness which has been lacking in you since forever.

OK I've been all over the place today and I know I'm not the first to make a post abt the hbomberguy video. but was anyone gonna tell me the Courier Jorunal is in it on account of the kentucky cave story segment when I have a really long outline for some work of writing that connects al capote, the great Gatsby, the band squirrel bait, why bourbon should legally he restricted to this geographical area, Kentucky route 0, and 17776 eleven Jones cave? my parents had their honeymoon at mammoth cave. I've done multiple trips there even disregarding confusing it with the little loom house
