Hello!
Love your art and au.
I think you said 12 april and Casey didn’t die.
But in a, um, au of an au where they also died, how do you think rise april and Cassandra would deal with having their own personal spoopy ghost counterparts?
Thank you!
Haha it would be rather interesting. 2012 April and Casey don’t have charms so I think somehow April’s powers could have tied them to rise April and Cass. So a more soul bound then anything.
And April and Casey would have been crushed by rubble if they ended up not surviving, so their ghostly selves would be a little… interesting-
As for reactions, rise April would be freaked out but totally try and go full ghostbusters
Cass would probably try and fight Casey who would also, definitely, try to fight back. Both would fail miserably-

ARB Birthday Special: Reiaki Suzubayashi
Tumblr media
~ June 14th ~
“Rock bottom will teach you lessons that mountain tops never will.”
Login Lines
“YAAAAAAAAHOO! Hell yeah, it’s my birthday yet again! I’m a whole ‘nother year older and I’m still somehow not dead yet! BOO YEAH!”
“Sometimes a day to kick back and chill is nice… but gotta admit! A day to be productive and get a whole lot of work done is the way to go! Now that’s a real self-pamper on my own birthday!”
Voice Lines
“Okay! So I think for the day, it looks like I’ve gotta head out to one of the luxury resorts out here! I, uh… I needa double check which hotel it is, my squirrel brain just doesn’t remember, ha! Her Majesty’s filming today so I gotta get her all dressed up for TV! Today’s a good day to be celebrating with other employees, some of my favorite people in the city! I had a video edited and all ready to go on this epic day, so it’s gonna be an ultra productive day today!”
“I just loved, loved, loved reading through all my fans’ sweetest birthday messages! It felt like I was just being showered with nonstop love! I did receive some early presents in my P.O. Box, and I don’t think that’s gonna be the end of it… oh well! I’ll never say ‘no’ to presents! Lots of fan letters, little spoopy plushies, and lots more!”
“Gah!! Holy shit, Your Majesty, you scared the dark soul outta me! I know! Can you believe it?! Pffft! The hell’re you talking about, Your Majesty? You on something? Fuck, nothing gets past you, huh? What does it matter, anyway… you probably can read what’s on my mind anyway… hah! I… it happened again. Truthfully… I received a letter from… him yesterday… Reminds me to wonder what the hell whatever afterlife entity is out there must be thinking— since they let me of all people live… like, why me? What’s even worse… I feel like I’m going to kill someone very important to me one of these days… Because I can’t control myself…! Hah! I’m pathetic, aren’t I… Sorry, I didn’t wanna dump all this on you… But I guess I do feel a bit better yapping on and on like that! Sniff!”
“‘Hold out my hands,’ you say… I don’t know if I trust you all that much when you’re like this… ugh, okay fine, I’m closing my eyes… The hell is this? A frame with a clown hand…is this Pennywise from the movie ‘It’? You made this?! Ohhhh my god, how do you find the time to make stuff like this all the time? I mean, I guess… Hehe… I think my roommates love it already…! And I definitely think it’s cute, too! Thank you, Your Majesty… Man, I wouldn’t trade being with you and Miku for anything in the world…”
“Oh, Miku-chan! It… it’s nothing! Sniff! Anyway, did you need something? Awwww, thanks! You got me something, too? Ooooo lemme see lemme see!”
“Oh, that’s cute! It 100% fits in with my room! I’ll bring these into my room and then we can all set out for today’s activities! Dang, you’re not usually this expressive! Thanks a bunch Miku-chan, you really made my day! Thank you… Can I hug you? Awww!!! Really, thank you so much… I don’t know what I’d do without you or Her Majesty… Thank you for still putting up with me…”
Queen Card Lines
“Dear me, is it your second birthday as an esteemed member of R.I.P Märchen already? Heavens, how time has passed. Though it would seem you are not exactly in a celebratory mood. Talk to me, my dear, what’s the matter? Reiaki-chan… That may be so… however, you will surely feel relieved to release what is on your mind. I see, tell me more. Did something happen to warrant this most recent case? So it bothers you to this extent… It would seem that before we embark on the drive to the hotel, I have matters of my own to take care of, my dear…”
“I may have the thing to lift your spirits. Hold out your hands, my dear. Tis but a simple frame crafted with my own two hands. Just the same way you craft all of your prosthesis yourself rather than going out to buy pre-made ones. Hang this up in your room along with the thousands of other ornamentations you possess. And I to you, you are a valuable asset to this team, no… all of Tokyo. Thank you for being you.”
Miku Lines:
“Hey, Reiaki… Happy birth— Your eyes are red and puffy… are you okay…? O-okay, then… just wanted to wish you a happy birthday, that’s all…”
“You’ve been collecting the candles I’ve been making for you, but they’re just… there. So here’s something you can use to hold them. And since you’re a big fan of all things cooky and grim, I think this fits your room just fine. And it’s made out of jesmonite, so it’s totally sustainable. Aish… you’re welcome… Happy Birthday… Ugh… just this one time…”
The colors that surround you… they’re tainted. Dull… grey… that vividness I see on you all the time isn’t there now. You haven’t been this tainted since…
Is it because of that person? How fucking dare he… This is the one day Reiaki should be full of life and surrounded by the most beautiful of colors… I hope he’s proud of himself for this… I’ll kill him one of these days…

I want to hear this Victorian au you mentioned
It was just a silly idea I had Last night. (Kind of a rework of an older AU?) Anyway read on
The basic idea is that it's fnaf, But set in Victorian London! And with little to no robots Or techno stuff :) Mostly just ghosts and spoopy magic (?).
I've only got a couple things figured out like William isome sort of wealthy upper class man who likes to collect audides and tinker with supernatural stuff. I think he hires Henry (And pays for him to be shipped from America to England) since he wants to run up everyone else in the collecting oddities part of London by having cool automatons. I think he only starts killing once he realizes that using child's blood he can do cool mystical shit. So that's why he starts stabbing small children
As for Charlie and Michael and the other kids (You know that's what you're here for LOL) Charlie comes to London with her father, Well her brother and mother stay back home (I don't exactly know which part of America she's from but I know that Henry used to work at a big factory before People found out about his awesome robots). She's permitted to play with the Afton kids a lot and likes getting into mischief with Michael. (Using some of my own Michael lore here but he's a bastard child, And his mom's a bit of a mystical weird lady). Charlie is William's first target for child's blood. I can't decide if she dies or not. If she doesn't die then she's Bed ridden for a long long time because it's the Victorian era and healthcare sucks.
After the after the accident (if Charlie lives) Michael isn't allowed to see her since William really doesn't want her to tell anyone that he stabbed her. (She tried to tell some people but Williams said she just had hysteria and everyone believed him, But Michael knows Charlie and isn't sad like Henry so... Probably wont-work) So without Charlie, Michael goes out a lot to rough it with street boys Mostly just to make his dad mad.
I'm also considering with a lot of hesitation this being the 1 AU where Michael gets to keep all of his insides.. It's a radical decision but I'm thinking about it... Maybe I'll make him some other kind of creature since Michael getting to be happy and human is not something That will happen.
(Except in a another AU I had an idea for)
I think that also Evan dies to one of the stuffed bears that William accidentally brought to life. And I think Elizabeth to a clown Puppet meant to trick children into following it so William can get more children's blood. I don't know if she dies the same way Evan dies (in that he dies and becomes a ghost, I think her flesh ties to the puppet or something and She's become something else but I'm not sure How silly I want to take it)
Sorry for how long and ramble and filled with spelling mistakes it is I'm still working on this one.. If you have any ideas please give it to me!

Hello, 'tis I, SecretIdentity!Alastor Anon once more:
I didn't realize wendigo weren't closed culture, I was under the impression that they were, my bad, sorry; thanks for telling me. Anyways I agree that interpretations w/ them as spoopy monsters is pretty blargh & that my Secret-ID-AU!Alastor, even canon!Alastor, are as far from wendigo as can be lol.
And yes! I really like Peryton!Alastor as a concept (plus, bird AND deer behaviors! It's got the flavors built in! Either the SecretIdentity!Alastor's wings are too small to fly, or they were injured & rendered flightless some time ago (broken funny? Nerve damage? Amputee? haven't decided). He's been a lot of fights over the years, there's a toll taken there.
And I just had a thought, what if, Alastor's plan to ally with Charlie & support her hotel idea, was a survival-brain, seat of his pants idea? The most recent Cleanse had all of Hell in a huge serious of brawls, duels and turf wars right (tbh I have... issues with Sinners and the Cleanse itself only being confined to the Pride Ring but I haven't decided yet)? Set 'Day in the Life' Alastor comic but a little to the left slightly before the Cleanse, Alastor and Sheep Lady get caught outside during the Cleanse. Eventually leads to Alastor getting into a marathon of close calls both with Exterminator Angels AND Sinners afterwards, he's won in the sense that he's alive, and the Radio Demon's identity is still a mystery as well as his mythos uplifted further. By the start of the AU Pilot time post-Cleanse, all his usual hideyholes (Rosie? Who actually is an Overlord apparently?) are either too far or partially compromised (Vox bothering him, Alastor, as himself, a 'known associate' of the Radio Demon?), so he needs to buy himself some breathing room to recover and figure out his next moves. (Sheep Lady is alive somewhere but nowhere to be seen for now).
Alastor uses some magic he's got to make himself look unruffled/unhurt, can't show weakness after all, wounded prey animals get targeted first. He ends up ducking into the News Studio just in time to see Charlie's broadcast interview live.
Idk I just thought it would be kinda interesting if Alastor allied with Charlie because he was flying by the seat of his pants and too allergic to showing weakness (legitimate concern considering Hell's society) to try coming as a guest, because not only is that an affront to his pride but the lack of control would be scary probably, so he needs to pitch himself (and his true identity, but separately and somehow a reason to also be there bc that's the point but he can't let them know it's the point) as a valuable asset without looking weak. So he calls in a couple of those few ongoing contracts/favors that he's been holding onto for a while, Niffty and Husk, they're the... Safest choices, to contribute something to this allyship support deal he just pantsed himself into. He had a plan the whole time (no he didn't).
Instead of the pilot/ep1 ending with Sir Pentious just showing up, he doesn't, no big powerwank scene, just quiet scenes for each of what is probably going to be (most of?) the main cast ending their day, settling into the hotel. Also I feel that there was some missed opportunity in the pilot canon where Angel mentions that there's no food at the hotel, and Alastor offering to cook jambalaya for everybody (later if he has a more pressing injury to bother with in secret? Could even be a tidbit of Vaggie talking to Charlie about how Alastor [Radio Demon's ambassador] smells like blood, and if Alastor hears he wouldn't correct her) dialogue at the end can stay though, or it get picked up later.
Anyways, thanks for listening to my Alastor blether, I know he's just Viv's edgy karen-hair wasted potential OC but, man I enjoy redesign/rewriting him.
Thank you for sending in your ideas -- it's some truly excellent blether! Characters that are exceedingly powerful but also in survival mode always make for an interesting time.
(Incidentally, you've also got me really invested in the idea of Alastor with stubs of what used to be wings hidden under his clothes.)

Hi October! I'm a bit late on the draw, but it's so good to see you again! Happy Spoopy month!
It's been an interesting year for me! I've had some unexpected health issues over the past few years, but things started getting better, and for now they're largely under control! I imagine you may have heard this from the other spirits by now, but there has been a lot of unrest and international conflict across the world lately. Though, I suppose that isn't new. It's frustrating that, in my line of work, I see so much data on the sick and injured, but I cannot do anything to help them directly. Honestly, it gets a little depressing sometimes; but I know they're in good hands.
On a lighter note: I'm celebrating another year of living together with my lovely gremlin of a partner, and I've been making some real strides (re)learning music theory! I've even started drawing semi-consistently again! Making time for that has been tough, but absolutely worthwhile; life is too short!
Anyway, I brought this delicious offering of Apple Cider Frycakes! (Don't mind the missing one...)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tis alright Spirit! Better late than never, right? I know for me, it cna be pretty crazy, I can only imagine how busy the rest of you must be! Im so relieved to know that your health issues have resolved greatly since speaking with me again. Always so happy to hear of my spirits being in good health (even if not all the time). Sadly tho, you are correct. While I may not be able to be up to date on every little thing, I do my best to try and stay as informed as I can, but do know that while it may be overwhelming and daunting to the seemingly constant barrage of bad news, remember that its ok to step away for a moment to clear your head. You have to take care of your own mental state as well. On that note, while it may be frustrating and saddening to feel like you cant do anything directly, know that even the smallest gesture of kindness and empathy can go a long way. Your partner sounds wonderful and I am so glad to hear that you both are doing so well, and picking up old (or rather relearning) hobbies! I hope that you will share some of your drawings with me if you get the chance! And thank you for the treat offering! Dont worry, Im sure that one thats missing only mysteriously disappeared, not eaten by someone else, of course! ;3

According to the poll I made last week...
Looks like ideas #2 and #3 are tied!
I'm not going to do another poll to pick between the two because I think I can find a way to incorporate both ideas into this story. And with how I set up the two ideas, I think it'll work pretty well! It's now just about how to execute it in a way that I have envisioned it because Candela Obscura is a horror ttrpg game and I have zero experience in writing horror but would love to play my hand at writing it because it'll be a nice skill to have for other purposes.
So this Hosie Candela Obscura AU is going to have a lot of lore and worldbuilding from Candela Obscura because why not and also because I said so. I've already began planning a little bit of the plot as well as who the playing characters will be aside from Hope and Josie. I'm also figuring out a little bit of backstory for each character and also planning out a prologue chapter just to set the stage for the fic and so I can have it posted on my ao3 for easy access.
I'm pretty excited about this AU and I hope people will look forward to the spoopy scary. And like, I know I have a whole bunch of other Hosie fics in reserve, but also: hyperfixation will do what hyperfixation will do lol

🎃 HAPPY SPOOPY MONTH EVERYONE! 🎃
October is such a fun time, not only because of the fact that its Halloween month but also because I feel like its the beginning of the unofficial "holiday season".
What I mean when I say this is that, starting from Oct.1, we get to see the weather become cozy, decorations start being put out, lots of holiday specific foods and celebrations and special activities and themes! There's just something in the air from October 1st out till the end of the year that is just filled with an exciting buzz that can't help but affect you even a little bit. Not to mention, in a way celebrations happen in fandom too. So many people decorating their blogs and profiles, fun creation challenges, fandom events, and holiday/season prompts and ideas happen in these last coming months too its just a complete huge holiday celebration in a way its so exciting :DDDD
ANYWAYS this whole post was just to say Happy Halloween Month! Also as I mentioned earlier, 'tis the season for decorations. As such, for the whole month of October, I will be using this new DNI banner I made for my blog!
(NOTE: This banner was made by me for my own personal blog. Do not download it or use it for any other blog.)
Tumblr media
Isn't it cute? It took me so long to get it together (mainly due to the chibi shu, which even then isn't the bestest quality) but I did my best with what I had and I still think its pretty good and was so so worth it.
Is it lopsided? Yes. But I did it for fun and I like my banner so that's all that matters.
(Funny thing, I considered making the rest of Luxiem and have them all together as DNI banners but after making my own personal Shu one I realized how hard it would be to do that so I probably won't be sorry orz)

Bello Licentiae Chapter 21: Dance Revolution
Summary:
tw: flashback mention, gang activity, police, missing person Tis the spoopy season :) 'text' JSL Text thoughts
"Hey Mori," Jiro started, twirling an ear jack as she crossed the common area. "I saw you put dancing and keys. Momo has us covered for keys since she's classically trained, but I was wondering how you dancing would work."
Akira made the last couple strokes copying over History notes before looking up. ' I also received classical training, but she probably got more. I would most likely be using my crutches, and I've gotten pretty comfortable with combat footwork in those. ' They pulled up one of the videos they'd found on the train rides to and from Hosu where a choreographer was demonstrating how to adapt popular moves for use with forearm crutches.
"That should work," Jiro watched curiously. "Can you forward that to Mina? She'll be doing the choreography."
' Of course, I've got a playlist I can send her. Have we picked a song yet? ' Akira asked before sending the link. ' If no one from our class is interpreting, Anii should be able to do it. She'll just need to meet with us a couple times beforehand to rehearse. '
"'Hero Too' by Yuki Hayashi and Ayapeta," Jiro paused her earjack twirling for a moment in thought. "Do you think we need an interpreter? Koda suggested it, but I don't remember seeing one at a concert before."
' From what I saw on HeroTube, deaf or hard of hearing people can request interpreters, and the interpretations are more about capturing the spirit and beats of the song instead of direct translation, ' Akira clarified.
"I think this is the longest and most civil conversation we've had," Jiro huffed as she took a chair across from them and started pulling out her own notes.
Akira raised an eyebrow and shrugged. ' Yeah, cause you were acting like a jerk for most of the first term. I'm glad you worked whatever that was out. '
Jiro stiffened but huffed an agreement before settling into her work. They studied together for a couple hours before Akira moved to their room for privacy. It still felt weird being alone with someone they weren't close to, and Jiro's periodic humming clashed with the music in their head.
That weekend, Akira stayed in the dorms for dance practice with Mina and the dance crew. Midoriya and Ida especially struggled at first to get the hang of rhythm, but they gradually eased into it. Akira also did a couple sessions with just Mina to make sure they could have a clone do the routine if they were wheelchair-bound that day.
"We could have a separate routine for if you need your wheelchair," Mina offered while they took a water break.
Akira shook their head, ' If we had more time, that would be great, but with midterms coming up, I don't think it's going to be practical. '
"So, your roommate..." Mina prodded with a glint in her eye. "What's his deal?"
Akira rolled their eyes and pushed off the wall. ' How so? '
"You've been sitting on the biggest gossip this whole time!" Mina pouted, drawing a chuckle out of them. "What's he like? Why do they keep attacking us? Did he join willingly? Is he single?"
Akira grew more exasperated with each question until they just gave her a flat look. ' He's gay. He's... kind of like a German Shepherd? Protective and mean to strangers but soft in his own way with people he knows. And it's complicated. Can we get back to practicing? '
"Oh! Like an older brother."
Mina started back into the routine, leaving Akira a little stunned. Oh .
The next week flew by between festival preparations, a new wave of self-destructing weapons popping up on the black market, and midterm prep. Exams were still a few weeks away, but this time Akira organized the same study group to help make sure they were ready. When Saturday rolled around, Aizawa brought Eri to school so she could see more of the campus when there were fewer people to overwhelm her.
Akira, Togata, and Midoriya eagerly led her about, showing her the rest of the main building while Akira kept an eye out for any signs of discomfort in the little girl. A few of the business courses handed out fliers for seminars and joint presentations with support course students, although Akira frowned slightly at Mei not being on any of them.
' Have you spoken with Hatsume? She's planning on going independent last I heard, ' Akira asked a student from 1-E.
He blanched, "Oh no one messes with her! She's got all these half-formed ideas that explode all the time. It's a good thing she was already planning on starting her own company. No one wants to be dragged down with her."
"I-I'm sure she-" Midoriya stuttered, smile falling as he hesitantly looked to Akira and Togata.
' Oh hell no, ' Akira glared at him while Togata interpreted. ' I have personally worked with Bubblegum on multiple occasions, and I'm telling you now she will make it big one day. Those half-formed ideas are the start of some of her best items, and they explode so often because they're innovative! ' They drew themself up to their full 140 cm and stalked closer to the agape student as he backed up. ' If I ever hear you or anyone else for that matter disparage her, I will personally make sure you never hear the end of it. Do I make myself clear? '
"Crystal," he gulped and sprinted away.
Akira took a calming breath and reset their posture before turning and checking on Eri. Her eyes were wide with curiosity and a little bit of fear, so Akira crouched despite their protesting knees. ' Hey Eri, how are you feeling? '
Eri scrunched her brow for a moment before signing, ' Good. ' At Akira's smile, she continued. "You're not usually mad."
Understanding flitted across Midoriya's face, and Akira nodded. ' I don't like when people say mean things about people I care about. That includes you, ' they slowly reached out to give her a head pat, which she leaned into. Akira stood up, knees popping and crackling in protest as they continued on.
At the festival grounds, Monoma and Tetsutetsu popped up with a silver dragon head. Akira bit back a smile at the reminder of Hitoshi and asked, ' What is 1-B doing for the festival? That looks neat. '
Monoma launched into an albeit boastful explanation of the ambitious play they were putting on as Awase approached, keeping an eye on him. Akira leaned towards Eri conspiratorially and signed with Togata quietly interpreting, ' Copycat gets really competitive with our class. It sounds like they're taking inspiration from some pre-quirk movies, which'll be interesting. '
Eri giggled, and Midoriya asked, "Where's Kendo? Isn't she usually with you, Monoma?"
Awase shrugged apologetically, "She got entered into the beauty pageant by Reiko, so they're figuring that out."
"Nejire's also entering that, shall we see what they're up to?" Togata asked with a twinkle in his eye. "I bet her costume is going to be really pretty this year."
As they slipped into one of the equipment room, Akira cocked their head at the odd pose Hado took in the air supported by one of her waves. "Hey, why is Eri here? How fun!" she asked cheerfully when she noticed the group.
As the others talked about the contestants and last year's champion, Akira wandered over to the clothing racks. They were filled with a variety of gowns and shorter pieces of a pretty wide variety of themes and sizes. Noticing the lack of masculine options, they turned to Amajiki, ' Is this a fem-presenting only event? '
"Eh, I guess we haven't had anyone want to participate who wasn't?" Yuyu responded when Amajiki looked lost. "Beauty pageants are more of a traditionally girl thing to do."
Akira shrugged, signing a loose ' thanks ' as they made their way back to the group. They noticed with some amusement that Eri seemed enraptured by Nejire and the assortment of pretty items. With a smile, Akira snapped a picture and sent it to Yamada, including a few of the details she seemed most taken with. In moments, they got a chaotic string of emojis to decode later as they headed to the last group, the support course showcase. ' This is where Bubblegum studies, ' Akira explained to Eri on the way.
"This is something that makes a splash every year!" Midoriya said excitedly as Togata covered his ears against the grinding and general workshop noises. Akira offered a pair of earplugs to Eri, but she was similarly taken with the busy room.
Akira grinned and gently maneuvered Eri to the side as Hatsume rounded Midoriya from behind. "That's right! The school festival is the support course's time to shine!"
Akira marveled at the much-improved robotic suit Hatsume had been working on as she continued. "This time, we've been given the spotlight! It's so I can get even bigger companies to look at my babies even more carefully!"
' Did you fix the... ' Akira paused as the suit started smoking. They winced and guided Eri back a bit, snapping their capture scarf out to grab the dome that shot off the top. Akira let the momentum carry for a moment before guiding it back to the floor a safe distance away. ' Good luck, Bubblegum! '
While grabbing a late lunch, Togata asked how Eri was feeling. She seemed thoughtful for a moment before signing ' happy ' and adding, "There are a lot of different people working hard, so I wonder how it'll turn out..."
"That's what people call 'getting excited,'" Nezu clarified from a few chairs over with Kayama. "I'm also excited about the school festival!"
Kayama added as they got up that if the alarm sounds, even a false alarm, they would have to cancel and evacuate. There would be significant extra security, especially in the wooded area around campus, to avoid that at least. Akira slid a look at Midoriya, knowing his tendencies, but everything was set up to be quiet for the time being.
On Monday, Akira was waiting for Mad Banquet outside the cafeteria when they saw a call from Haru. They quickly shot off a text as they answered saying they had to take a call. ' Is everything alright? '
"I'm sorry to do this, but have you seen or heard from Giran lately?" he asked, worry creasing his brow.
Akira shook their head as they thought back. ' No, and the League wouldn't have either. They're off-grid for the time being. '
"Shit." Haru called out their response to whoever else was in the room.
Anxiety spiking, Akira asked, ' What's going on? '
"He's been dark for over a week," Haru explained. "It was a week on Friday, but we didn't want to worry you if someone else had heard from him. We've already checked with his underlings. I know you can't do much from there, but..."
' I can always try ,' Akira replied, cycling through options. ' Probably best not to involve Eraser, right? '
Haru hesitated, glancing to the side before nodding. "Giran's a big step up from what he currently knows of your involvement in the underworld. Keep it in-house if you can, but don't actively hide it."
With a sharp nod, Akira hung up and headed back to the classroom to meet with their group since the weather was turning colder. They started searching for what they could on the internet, but there wasn't much to go off of yet. Akira waved off the others' concern when they stiffly walked in, not bothering with an excuse since Fumikage looked ready to call them out as it was.
For the next week, Akira stayed up most of the night, only getting two hours of sleep or three if they passed out while searching. Intelligence networks were shifting, and the media started to catch on that a major change happened in the underworld. No one had connected the dots yet, and Akira tried and failed daily to get in touch with Dabi.
"Is something going on?" Taishiro asked after quietly taking Akira aside on Tuesday before their shift. "You were off yesterday and look even worse today."
' I'm fine, just dealing with internal issues right now, ' Akira responded, plastering a small fake smile on their face. ' It might be nothing. '
Taishiro grew even more worried but nodded, "I'll hold you to it, kiddo. Just come to me when you're ready, okay?"
By Thursday, Akira was starting to fall asleep in class, only Dark Shadow keeping them from nodding off while their focus kept splitting between the lectures and Giran. Did the Wrens finally get a hold of him? They could be torturing him because of me . What if they out Dabi? Everything could ...
"Akira!"
Akira jerked back into focus as they saw an empty classroom aside from them and Aizawa. "You're benched for Heroics today," he frowned as they struggled to focus on him. "I don't know what's going on, but Shiro confirmed something was off on Tuesday, and you've only been getting worse."
' But- ' Akira protested, swaying slightly as they stood. Aizawa gently steadied them by their arm, drawing a sharp flinch and fresh wave of guilt. He patiently watched with now open concern. Taking stock of their state, Akira huffed and pressed their mouth into a thin line. ' Fine. ' They looked pointedly at their arm, and Aizawa let go after a moment.
"Can you tell me what's going on?" he eventually asked.
Akira sighed in exasperation, running a hand over their face. ' Someone very important to my group is missing. He's been dark for too long, and no one's been able to reach him. '
Aizawa's eyebrows crinkled as he surveyed them. "Why didn't you say something earlier? I can look at arrest records, at least rule that out."
' We already have, ' Akira waved him off. ' Giran would be too big a catch to keep quiet. '
Aizawa sucked in a breath. He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Okay, that answers the why. Undergrounds have noticed his absence, but we thought he was in a different area and his underlings got complacent. If he's missing , we can start looking elsewhere and help ease the fallout.
"In the meantime," he gave them a pointed look, "go back to your dorm and get some rest. Don't keep looking right now." Aizawa's gaze softened as Akira leaned against the desk, head swimming as they sipped on a jelly pouch. "Let me take the next steps, and I'll let you know what we find."
Akira reluctantly limped back to the dorms, barely remembering to let Haru know Aizawa and the undergrounds were now involved before crashing.
Around three, Akira jolted awake and groaned, waiting for the pain from the nightmare to abate. As the agonizing seconds passed, they realized it wasn't just from the nightmare. Pushing through the pain, they grabbed the pill bottle and shook out a couple to take with a jelly pouch. Hopefully that'll take some of the edge off . Akira grimaced at the burning the pills caused in their stomach, but at least sometimes they helped. They tried to go back to sleep after that, but the pain kept them awake. After a while, they turned on their chronic flare HeroTube playlist, a mix of podcasts and music they could zone in and out of without missing much.
Some hours later, Hitoshi checked in on them and mentioned he'd tell Aizawa they couldn't come to class. Dark Shadow burst in not long after with a heating pad, more blankets, and chocolate. Akira thanked them, although they weren't sure they could stomach anything that rich for a bit. Around noon, they dragged themself onto their wheelchair with a blanket and made their way downstairs using the touchpad instead of wheels to turn.
After putting the ingredients in the blender, Akira pulled the blanket a little tighter and started grounding themself as they turned the blender on. They quickly backed up their wheelchair, but their vision grew staticky as the noise blended with Sonic's pulsing, grating quirk. In two three four , Akira tried to focus, barely registering the difference in material of the wheelchair and soft blanket and the metal resonance chamber Sonic used.
By the time they were fully back in the present, the blender was long finished. Akira tiredly transferred the mix to their oversized tumbler and trudged back to their room, very much ready for the day to be over.
"Are you okay, Reaper?"
Akira smiled tiredly over to Eri where she had stopped coloring. They bookmarked the open investigations report and closed their laptop to turn to her. ' Just worried about someone I know. It's not someone you know, so please don't worry about it. '
Eri scrunched up her brow at that, "But I'm worried about you?"
Akira winced, knowing their eyebags were still pretty prominent. ' Leave the worrying to people older than you, okay? Kids shouldn't have to be worried about this stuff. ' After a moment, they added, ' I'm sorry I placed some of that emotional burden on you. '
After they explained a couple words, Eri lit up and slid off her chair. She ran down the hallway towards Aizawa and Yamada's bedroom as Akira watched in confusion. Did I say something wrong? Akira couldn't hear any crying, but then again, Eri would have learned to cry silently. They started to get up only to hear the soft patter of footsteps next to Yamada's longer strides.
"Sweetie, are you sure you want me? They usually prefer Shou for-"
"No!" Eri stomped her foot to Akira's amusement. "Daddy says you're oldest, so he would just go to you. Is anyone older than you?"
Akira stifled a snort as an affronted Yamada rounded the corner with Eri in tow. A blush spread across their cheeks as they realized why Eri had grabbed him, and they awkwardly waved. ' Sorry, I didn't realize she was going to get you. '
"You said kids shouldn't worry about this. Daddy says you're a kid. So logically, you need the oldest person!" Eri looked proud of herself, one small hand fisted on her hip.
' Ah, logic, my only weakness, ' Akira dramatically melted onto the table, leaving their head up just enough to make out color blobs. As the purple blob moved around the table into their periphery, Akira shifted to look at Yamada crouched a comfortable distance away.
"Hey, Shou told me a little of what's going on. You wanna talk about it, little listener?" he gently asked.
' Not much to talk about, ' Akira sat up enough to sign after they made sure Eri wasn't in line of sight. ' There's nothing. '
Yamada hummed, quirk activating slightly as the pitch dropped into what felt like a cat purr. Akira tensed but slowly relaxed as they watched the hero sit next to them. "Shou's really good at finding people, you know. Nezu, too."
Akira thinned their mouth and looked away briefly. ' This is different. If a rival did manage to rise up, they would've been disposed of by now. No one who's been in the underworld for any period of time would touch him. None of this makes sense! '
"Hey, you've got a lot going on," Yamada interrupted their thoughts as their head snapped up to briefly meet his gaze. They quickly looked away but not before seeing the open concern. "Shou and I are here for you if you want to vent or need some space, okay? If there's anything we can do from helping look to bouncing around ideas to making food, just let us know."
Akira hesitated, the request seeming silly in the moment. At his encouraging smile, they asked, ' Can we have yaki-udon tonight? ' Akira asked after a moment. Yamada brightened and started checking for ingredients, soon sending Aizawa out with a list. Eri even roped Akira into helping with the preparation. As guilty as they felt for not spending the time looking for Giran, Akira felt a little less wrung out when they started the search again after dinner.
On Monday, Taishiro confined them to desk duty, which they spent continuing the search when not putting calls through and exploring the system. A new set of fingerprints did show up in a country-wide search for the owner of a severed finger, so Akira sent that off to forensics. A few minutes later, they clicked back to the request and double-checked the found location. Maybe some kind of yakuza statement? They mused and put a note in the file to cross-check the prints with their own database if the police didn't turn up anything.
Notes:
"Hero too" was composed by Yuki Hayashi, Ayapeta wrote the lyrics, and Chrissy Costanza performed the song. Jiro mellows out in her treatment of other students in the anime at least, so figured Akira would give her another chance. Haru: don't actively hide it but y'know play it close to your chest Akira: got it, stay up all hours to find him and don't tell anyone Haru: ... Aizawa and Taishiro: wtf is going on

Breif little ramble about a more dsmp-centered, Superhero AU esque idea my brain has been rotating every now and then
Dont fully have everything planned, originally it was just a few stray thoughts caused by me listening to the Opening OSTs of both I Expect You to Die games that has started to spiral out of control from there (honestly I wouldn't be surprised if there's also some inspiration from Grimmijagger's Cursed Town AU due to some spoopy themes) General sorta modern world setting where some people have superpowers, most of the world looks to a group of powered humans known as Pantheon to guide them and protect them, having somehow been granted two powers. Pantheon has been around for generations, with members coming and going through the years. ...Well I say somehow, the actual reason just tends to be hidden to almost all but Pantheon In the setting, there are sinister, sorta eldritch sorts of entities that for the most part, lurk just beyond the boundaries of the material plane, most desiring to shape, control, and generally invade the world... but they can't sustain a physical form in the material plane on their own, so they are for the most part, stuck in areas for dreams and general unconsciousness and dimensions tied to specific aspects of the world such as time or death. They can mess around with dreams ...That is unless they make a pact with a creature that originates from the material world, creating a sort of link between the two and even allowing the vessel to harness a fragment of their power The members of Pantheon fit into this category, humans who one way or another ended up making a pact with one of these entities (there can be several vessels connected to the same entities), their second power being that fragment they received in return, (currently vessels connected to the same entity will have the same secondary power). The sinister nature of the pact becomes apparent overtime, as a vessel will slowly have their every thought given access to, loose any form of autonomy over their body and have more and more of the entity they're bonded to control them, until the pour soul is practically a puppet for their entity to use to interact with their world and carry out their will, whilst the person themselves becomes trapped within their own body, in this state, they are functionally lost. ___ Outside of the the most I have for the first main plot focuses on Kristin (Or Lady Death), a member of Pantheon who made a pact with the entity that lurked within the realms of the dead, now capable of seeing spirits and conversing with them.
She's been a member of Pantheon for a while, not as long as Jubilant (name may change) , who's sort of taken up the role of leader amongst them, but long enough to become aware of the position she's in (for the most part, she isn't full aware of just how much control of her own body will eventually be taken), she's stuck in this life now, she is the vessel of the entity of Death who she's aware doesn't have noble goals but has fallen into the idea that there's nothing she can do, she made the pact, so she must play the part of Lady Death, she who brings to those who she hunts at best into the steely hands of her fellow commanders and at worse, the cold reaching grasp of the beyond. She who is inevitable. She who no one can outrun. But there's something that shakes that beleif... Whilst hunting for those the Pantheon deemed criminals (often being those who didn't fall in line and/or knew too much)... one gets away entirely. Sisyphus, a name for the criminal given by the public and quickly adopted by the Pantheon, the one who escaped death herself. The Pantheon treated him as a stain on their perfect streaks, someone who made the public think they had flaws, Kristin follows this mindset, the entity insistent that he may have gotten away but no one could outrun death forever, Lady Death and Sisyphus develop a sort of rivalry... but with each escape, each time the idea that the fate of those Death hunted were doomed wavers, something in her worldview changes bit by bit. If this man who to some degree may as well have been any old resident could escape his fate, well maybe she could to... and that's the most I've got for now outside of plans for Kristin to eventually break away from Pantheon and for the two of them to work together to avoid the rest of Pantheon and find a way to make it impossible for the fate of the vessels to ever befall her. ___ So yea those are some of my silly ramblings, hope at least some of you enjoy them, incoherent as they may be Might doodle for this AU of sorts sometimes, brains got some spooky visuals especially for Jubilant

love having mutuals who are also into angst because we'll really say "😭😭 i'm crying FUCK YOU how could you???" and then retaliate with even WORSE angst.
edit: i'm pretty proud of this actually i'm tagging the gang. @smidgen-of-hotboy @urjover @one-joe-spoopy @the-private-eye @waters-and-the-wilde uhhh @demonic-panini sorry for the tags guys i just need you to see this
juno wakes in a room colder and crueler than the voices of those damn executives, feeling like he'd been run over by a ship ten times the size of the carte blanche and it had gone back over his head for seconds. he tries to lift his arms to massage the splitting pain running through his brain like a laser, but they're tied behind his back to the chair he's sitting in. he's not sure he'd have the strength to move his arms anyway.
suddenly, a flash of emotions cuts through to the core of him, fear and pain and sorrysorrysorrysorrow and the relief that runs through him clashes horribly with the ruby's distress.
"ruby? you're alive?"
the ruby whistles softly to agree, and if nothing else, the pain in juno's heart lessens. "what— what happened, back there? are you— are you going to be okay?"
the ruby stutters when it responds, like it's not quite sure of the answer, but juno's getting the general sense that it's not going to die, and right now, he'll take what he can get.
"where's the rest of you, can you feel it? is it safe?"
ruby whistles the affirmative again, but there's more, this time. like it's trying to tell him something. it sends a message straight to his skull, and juno winces as he feels the searing pain of being split in half once again, but there's something beyond the pain, now. a voice.
b-boss? the— the ruby's sayin' you can hear me this way. are you alright? can you say somethin'? please, mista steel. i need to know.
juno almost cries with relief.
rita's voice is full of tears, which isn't the most unusual thing, but it's different, this time. deeper. juno hasn't heard rita this upset in so long, he's almost speechless. not entirely, though. he owes it to her to let her know.
"yeah, yeah, rita, i'm okay. in pain, and i got caught, but okay for now. i think i'm alone. are you alright? did everyone get out of the facility okay?"
yeah, they're— they're all out, boss. at least, that's what miss melee told me, i don't know how many people they were keepin' in that place.
juno feels some of the tension bleed out of his shoulders. the shift hurts a little, and the ruby whistles in protest — juno should probably stop moving so much, if it's keeping the link open between them, it can feel his pain. he tries to make it quick.
"okay, rita, that's good."
we're coming to get you, boss. we're workin' on a plan right now — we ain't gonna leave you in there, just hang on, alright?
"i know, rita, i know. just be careful, okay? and, uh, i-if nureyev's there, tell him not to work himself into the ground when he comes to get me back. playing the hero's supposed to be my thing."
there's silence from the ruby for a while, and juno would think it's cut off the connection, or passed out, except he can still feel it's pain cutting through his core.
"rita? you there?"
i don't think mista nureyev's coming, boss. he's not been doing much of anything since he got here.
oh.
"oh. um..." juno tries to think of something to say, something quick and easy, a joke, maybe. something that will let the ruby rest and let rita get to work and let him pretend that nureyev was still coming for him.
i'm sorry, boss.
"don't be. you're doing everything you can. and hey, rita?"
yeah, mista steel?
juno chokes back a sob. "i'm sorry i'm not there with you. but i know you'll bring us home."
the ruby cuts him off, and juno waits, and hopes that fate won't make his last words to rita a lie.

batmanisagatewaydrug's small business compilation post
hi hey what's up. if you celebrate christmas it's definitely too late to b e ordering any more gifts online, but here's the great news: buying shit isn't tied to any one holiday. maybe you want to order yourself a little something to start the new year off right. maybe you have family or even (gasp) friends with birthdays for which you sometimes feel compelled to provide gifts. maybe you're just looking to support more independent artists and small businesses in 2023.
luckily for you I have a.) a fucking HEAP of business cards that I've been collecting for years and b.) too much time to kill, since I've currently snowed in and unable to go to my mother's for Christmas. below is a compilation of every small business/artist whose card I've accumulated and links to buy their shit. enjoy!
Candles & Soap
Cellar Door Bath Supply Co - genuinely some of the coolest soaps and funkiest candles I've ever encountered. bonus points for the tiny dogs hanging out at their booth last time I saw them at a craft fair.
GreenTree Factory - listen, straight up this website is a mess, but their candles are gorgeous and burn FOREVER.
Roots & Sky - when I say their Hive soap literally cleared my skin and watered by crops I am not joking.
Clothing
Assemblage Studio - unique reconstructed garments made from vintage clothes
BrianBrain Studio - spooky clothing & accessories. my wife bought one of our buddies a button-up here and it RULES.
Chlo's Clothing - HELLA cute crochet tops, I have one that's a big ol' fringey rainbow and I adore it.
D&D
Arcane Threadery - luxury dice bags. I've met the seller in person at a craft fair and the bags are GORGEOUS to behold.
Bugbear Bubbles - purveyors of such goodies as giant ooze soaps with dice sets inside and d20-shaped soap on a rope!
Pink Petal Development - cool D&D accessories like dagger-shaped dice holders and a crossbow dice roller.
Jewelry
Bespoke by Feldman - lightweight leather earrings that I'm all the way obsessed with. the owner gave me a discount for shitty weather last time I bought from her.
Cargo Creates - funky polymer clay earrings & other accessories
The Foxy Hipster - big! fun! earrings!
Hades Bone Yard - distinctive animal bone jewelry
Jenny Shlemon - if you want resin earrings that say something vulgar this is THE place to go. I have like twice as many Shlemon cards as anything else because my friends and I won't stop buying them for each other.
Wicked Wildwoods - animal bone & porcupine quill jewelry; source of my favorite set of bracelets
Other
To Draw Attention - illustrated stickers of cute critters
Windy Woods - stickers, enamel pins, and other goods based on ghosts, cryptids, and other spoopy pals. one of my wife's favorites.
