#truly a freak4freak pair

[p1ckthep01son]

why are gabe and william so not normal about each other like i understand because if i was in either of their bodies and saw the other one it would be on sight but. who was letting them call each other papi and make weird tweets about each other and why did gabe say "ass looks great william" just barely within register of the camera's mic in a guy ripley video and why did gabe call william his "little snuggle buddy" on livejournal and why did william say gabe was "one of the only people he could trust" and why did gabe say he loved william's "pale hairless body" and why did william go through a phase where he would sporadically post photos of himself and gabe on instagram and caption them things like "still shipping" and just straight up using the #gabilliam why did william say that people who thought gabilliam was real were "dreaming, but it's a nice dream" genuinely what the fuck is wrong with the two of them. i love their love so much

Anonymous Coward asked: Hi! Loved that last chapter! Curious since Haru and Akechi were the main focus, do you have any thoughts on Haru/Akechi as a pairing? I find them so fascinating because I think in a different situation they might be close or at least very similar

*vibrating on a bed of a thousand suns* Wow, hello anon, thank u for this very cool question that won't at all send me into a ramble for the next 1000 words minimum :3 Anyways, mild spoilers for ATOTT Chapter 54. I have to start off my ramble by saying that I do think Goro is bisexual, specifically demiromantic bisexual (so both on the ace spectrum and flexible when it comes to gender sexuality) and so in my mind I have no problem shipping him with women and of all the women I do like to ship him with (Ann, Sumire, Kotone, Haru) it’s Haru/Goro pairing that I absolutely adore the *most* Freak4freak as I said. Haru has this air of pleasantry that is apart of her similar to Goro. Except Haru’s isn’t a mask, per se, it’s part of who she is. A sweet-tasting poison that people won’t expect until it’s too late. Just like Goro, Haru has a strong sense of justice, but she also canonically enjoys the cries of shadows, enjoys destroying them, she loves violence and I think any relationship that let’s her explore that part of herself in either healthy or UNHEALTHY ways, would be a fascinating one to see, especially since Haru grew up pretty restricted, particularly in times of her life where expression of self is more crucial for personality development. She craved the love and bond she once had with her father in his childhood and one of the differences that I adore that ez_cookie so expertly pointed out in Daredevil. Shido never loved Akechi but there was once a time where Okumura loved Haru. That love faded and changed and became something empty and possessive, and that’s bound to leave psychological scars on someone. 

 I think Haru and Goro are both at the best positions to understand each other but also loathe each other’s perspective. I don’t think they’d fundamentally see eye to eye on alot of key matters. Haru has alot of trust in others, despite her upbringing, There’s this hopeful innocence in her that Akechi doesn’t have at all, and I think despite all their similarities, their anger, and their need to see justice done, that would be the difference that prevents them from truly understanding one another fully. Not to mention they’re from opposite economical backgrounds, which colours the way they view the world. Kupo said it best, they’re like a twisted carnival mirror of each other. In Akechi, Haru can see who she can become if she let her love for violence and her craving for control and autonomy get too far. 

In Haru, Akechi sees someone who openly admits to still holding love for someone who stopped giving it a long time ago and I think that’s his least favourite aspect of himself. The fact he wanted Shido to love him, to acknowledge him, and that part, that’s so ingrained with his hatred, makes him sick. And so to see her openly mourn her own father, to admit she still loved him despite his many, many flaws, would not sit well with Akechi-ever. They’re both also very open and forthcoming with their thoughts (especially Akechi in third semester) and I think it would make for a categorically bad time for them to ever have any sort of conversation around forgiveness and the future. BUT that also has this opportunity for them to LEARN from one another. Haru can learn to wield her discernment by not being so trusting, by asserting her control to not be taken advantage of, to not be afraid of her anger because anger can be healthy while Akechi can learn to properly detangle his emotions about his still breathing father, learn not to see empathy, and trust as weakness, learn to grow, from someone who even though they’re from two different worlds, can understand each other fully. 

 Forgive my language but freak4freak Haru/Goro I know they’d fuck crazy lmao. 

ANYWAYS, that’s all just in normal canon where he did in fact kill her dad. In ATOTT he didn’t, so let it be known IF ATOTT Goro HAD killed Okumura, Akechi would not have tried to kill Haru. He wouldn’t have let himself be killed of course, but I think he would be curious to see how she is able to do the things she does and watch her journey to move on from that pain in a way he never could. Also this is a boy who loves fighting so a chick who wants to kill him is not going to move the needle for him. The only reason Akechi tried to kill her at all, is because he KNOWS that resentment intimately, knows what it can do, and he doesn’t at all want to keep a person alive who might turn around and take the one thing he loves most away from him. He knows, Ren would not defend himself against Haru and if she wants to kill him, he may very well let her and he will not take that chance. ANYWAYS, I am a big Haru/Goro enjoyer. Whether as friends, vicious enemies or something even better chronically divorced with at least a couple murder attempts under their belt. Im hungry for it. Thank u for coming to my Tedtalk [Smile or comment on the answer here](https://retrospring.net/@CookieComics/a/112828098366945285)

hello! hello! a lot of people seem to be finding you now and i am also one of those peeps (may of just realised you haveva tumblr). i have read your coffee & mayhem series a couple of times now and i've got to say i love it! it's so well written from just robotnik and stone as their own individual characters to how they're written together, how their relationship develops and also how they clash. all of it is done beautifully <3.

got to say my favourite one is the prequel to the entire series! how stone becomes interested in him and tries his best to work for robotnik because he's interesting is so delightful! freak4freak perhaps...and then there's also robotnik who just adds a random liquid to drinks for fun and ends up food poisoning him and stone just let's him. it's hilarious to me. it also shows you can write them so well separately and together. even when they're not in a relationship you've written them beautifully and that's truly a feat!

i can't wait to hear your thoughts and opinions and writing about sonic 3 as well as the dynamic between gerald and ivo! the robotniks are truly heartbreaking! i saw sonix 3 twice and their relationship got me each time :(.

anyways this is getting long but i just wanted to say you're an inspiration <3 i want to write my own stobotnik fics one day and seeing you doing it and making a whole series out of it is so amazing!

okay okay that's all. have a good day or night or whatever time it is for you && keeping doing you!

Hello hello!

Whu, I thought I had advertised my blog in my fics... but it's entirely possible that I meant to but forgot, I'm that scatterbrained lol

Anyway, hi, happy to have you! I've been a bit radio silent on here and uh, actually, everywhere to be fair, but I will attempt to do better again now ^^

And, thank you so much for the compliments! I'm always delighted to read that people enjoy my take on these two geniuses - idiots? - this much! Never thought that would happen when I decided to write what was supposed to be a One-Shot... now we see how good my self control is!

The prequel is, possibly, my most self-indulgent piece of the entire bunch, and that's saying something. I had read the Pre-Quill at that point, and just had that unshakable thought that to be able to "keep up" with Robotnik - to be able to understand him, work for him, actually work with his manifesto - Stone would have to be a bit crazy, a lot smarter than the movies actually show, and extremely determined to stay in this job / by Robotnik's side. I couldn't find anything that really satisfied my need to read all that, there were a lot of delightful takes of them both and how they started working together, but I had that thought that Stone was the driving force there, not Robotnik - because why would Robotnik want an assistant, he hates people - so I sat down and wrote all that myself. In, like, two days. I am also a bit crazy and obsessed sometimes, though much more harmless than those two, I promise. XD

By now, I have been sent approximately ten links to websites and google drives to watch the movie, and I managed to watch a very good bootleg version of the movie yesterday. I cried, laughed a whole lot, cried some more, and got back to writing immediately afterwards. It's definitely my favorite of the three movies! I think by now I have written about 20k since Saturday, in three differents WIPs so far, so I PROMISE you all will get to read my take on what happened before, after and during the movie. Maybe even more in detail than any of you wanted to, lmao.

(and, hey. You could never send a message too long, honest. I am delighted to hear from you guys, even if I am as slow as a snail in answering sometimes. Take it from someone who wrote 286k and counting about one pairing - i have NO GROUND at all to say someone writes too much XD)

Thanks for the reaching out and making my day. Hope I will see you on the new fics! =D

Im so glad I can open your eyes to new Jade ships 😔😔😔 he’s just so banger I fear …

Being a multi shipper means more fanfics and all that but it starts to suck when it’s a complete rare pair and they are very little fics about them (I think I only read two good good jadevil fics 😔😔😔)

ROOKFLO 😭😭😭😭😭 I appreciate them greatly 😭😭😭 but Floyd ships just aren’t the easiest for me to fully get into (I prefer his brother LMAO)- I think I prefer florid and floace over rookflo but I still like them 💔💔 (I’d love for more info on florook tho 👀👀 or any other potential floyd ship- I’m trying to broaden my horizons when it comes to Floyd and his love life LOL)

Rookjei is literally just freak4freak (like treyjade) but they are open freaks which makes it so silly to me 😭😭

and jeikali is literally all in my head LMAO I like to think that Azul made a silly deal with Jamil one day- like if Jamil comes to live with Octavinelle for a week- Jade will take his place in Scarabia for that time. Why jamil agreed to one of azul’s idea??? plot. And he needed a break from kalim LMAOO… and I think over that week- Jade did all that Jamil does + MORE (he was able to handle the high maintenance that is Azul, Floyd and VIL.. VIL!!.. so can definitely handle kalim) while also being incredibly sweet to kalim where Kalim starts to develops a crush on him. Jade never once acted like it was a “chore” doing all that he did for kalim and Jade is just a charming fella man.. who can resist his charm truly 🙄🙄

SORRY I YAP TOO MUCH- IMA SHUT UP NOW- GOODBYEEE

HAVE A GREAT DAY/NIGHT ❤️❤️❤️

That's true.... We're multishippers, but at what cost...? ;-;

It's completely understandable, that's usually what happens when you have your own favourites!! I don't actually know a lot about RookFlo myself—I've only seen crumbs from Rook's ceremonial robes SR. But I just find them really cute!! Floyd is usually off-putting to others, but here he is, creeped out by Rook LMAO it's so funny that he has a more reasonable reaction to Rook compared to Jade, who only does his typical creepy laugh when he realizes that Rook has been watching him extremely closely...

AWWW KALIM DEVELOPING A CRUSH ON JADE IS ACTUALLY REALLY ADORABLE WHAT...... I LOVE IT I LOVE IT THAT'S SUPER ADORABLE. Jamil probably wouldn't trust Jade at all but then I remember this scene from the comic anthology (I forgot which one...) where Jade and Trey help Jamil cook, and he finds it surprisingly easier that way, and he gets to enjoy his beloved curry!! He has seen how competent Jade is, so maybe he'll—alright, I still can't see him trusting Jade enough that he'd leave him alone with Kalim, but who cares about that??? What matters is that you have fun and genuinely enjoy your headcanons <33333

Kalim viewing Jade as this charming gentleman... Jade has the power to charm literally anyone he comes across... If only he cared more about that (dude has no problem with acting creepy); he would be a dangerously unstoppable force...

AND PLEASE DON'T APOLOGIZE ABOUT YAPPING, you can yap as much as you want and I'll enjoy every moment of it JSJDJSJDK I love learning all about the ideas that you have!!! Thank you so much for opening my eyes (AGAIN!) <33333
