#trying to get into his headspace... grrr

[foradio]

❛ you are being so fucking weird, man. ❜

the demon chuckled lowly as tara spoke , crimson hues staring down at them as alastor’s head tilted slightly. much like a curious animal , the noise bubbling from his throat sounding staticky and warped. “ why thank you , my dear. i’ll take that as a compliment. “ the demon’s form bowed slightly , lowering so the two were now eye to eye. “ what’s the fun in being . . plain? “ the man added , tsk’ing softly to themself as they gazed at their companion.

“ so , my dear tara- “ the static spoke up once more , alastor’s big grin still plastered on his face. “ to what do i owe the pleasure today? “

I saw you hc L as autistic so maybe him with an autistic reader who's not the quiet type? (flappy hands, vocal stims, loud music instead of noise cancelling headphones; idk how to explain it)

-🦇

Summary: Headcanons for L Lawliet x reader. Both are autistic, but polar opposites in how they do things/handle their autism.

A/n: Grrr I love getting to write for L! He's such a goober and I love getting to elaborate on my general headcanons for characters <3 ALSO 🦇 anon left a little bit ago, but I am still fulfilling this request they left for me so if you want the anon name, feel free to take it

Thank you so much for requesting!

Autistic!L Lawliet x Autistic!Reader who are polar opposites

L has always been rather quiet, even as a child

He didn't start talking until about 6, and even then he only began talking because it communicated his needs more efficiently

He prefers quiet spaces and being alone, because it allows him to focus more

He also hates chaos or unplanned things. If he has time to plan something out to a T, he can make sure nothing will go wrong, therefore insuring the safety of everyone

This being said, he never thought you were someone he'd remotely like being around, let alone dating you

No offense, but you are literally everything he hates

And when he comes into contacts with the things that make him uncomfortable (such as chaos, loudness, etc) he can get panicky

He will quickly become overwhelmed and irritable, meaning the littlest things can make him snap

If he can't focus how can he save the world? If the world isn't saved by him than who will do it? Panicking isn't helping though, it's making things worse. Oh god, he can't stop! He can't think straight long enough to calm down!

And then kaboom, he basically just shuts down

The second he met you he was on his guard, knowing this likely wouldn't end well

He prefers to not work with people, but he can handle them as long as they're quiet

This is entirely out of the question

As you can guess, your first meeting is almost a disaster

Well, everyone else didn't know it was a disaster of course. They actually thought it went pretty well!

But in actuality, L was completely overwhelmed by you

Not even you actually, just the idea that you might overwhelm him

TLDR: He became overwhelmed thinking about how overwhelmed you might make him, so you essentially did nothing wrong lol

After this, he keeps his distance

Of course though, this makes for a bad work environment

So he nervously invites you into his hotel room and explains things to you

How he feels around you, explaining his autism (which he refuses to do under normal circumstances), and asking you to explain yours as well so he can formulate an arrangement for you to be around each other without causing him to panic

After this communication is had, working together is a lot smoother

He considers you a better acquaintance than the rest of his employees

Meaning he feels closer to you

However, when you begin dating your differences are just another quirk to him that he finds endearing

He loves to see you get excited and flap your hands, he loves to see you dance to your loud music, he loves all of it

If he isn't in the headspace for loudness though, he will of course inform you before going off to be alone

If you want to try to accommodate his preferences into your behaviors is up to you, but he is perfectly happy either way

He finds himself feeling safe around you because of your loudness

Like, you are a German Shepard and he is a hurt bird

He'll hide behind you with his big ol' eyes staring at his surroundings while you fight off anyone that might be too much for him

And being exposed to you all the time helps him expose himself little by little to things that would previously make him very uncomfortable

For example, he can now go out in public without panicking over how many people there are and how many things could go wrong for short bursts of time

And he is now fine with soft music playing in the background while he works rather than just total silence the entire time

He also likes that having you around means you can do the talking for both of you and he doesn't have to actually break his focus for anything

When it gets Dark Outside

Must be fun being a Super Hero, right?

Spider Gwen X Male Reader. (Y/n) has been flaking on his Girlfriend for a while now, and unfortunately it all comes to a head.

So. Let’s do this, one last time

My name is (Y/n) Riley, turns out my birth was your normal Mom and Dad stork story, I was created in a lab by a man named the Jackal, using the DNA of a guy named Peter Parker, unfortunately my dna wasn’t purely his and was mixed up somehow, letting me not look exactly like him. And for the last two years I’ve been New Yorks Spider-Man after Peter decided to retire and live comfortably with his Girlfriend, and I gladly took on the mantle of The Scarlet Spider-Man.

You know the rest, saved the day, got the girl and have been doing pretty decent hero work if I could say so myself. One of the biggest helps in that was my girlfriend, Gwen. She doesn’t know about my powers, I’m too worried what she might say, but it’s getting too much to hide, and I’m worried it’ll blow up in my face. Well, I guess it’s too late for that now.

It was ranging to be an average New York night for most. Bustling city, beautiful lights, and your run of the mill Supervillain trying to rob a bank, shocker.

Speaking of Shocking, The Scarlet Spider-Man swings though the city until he lands on a light pole, as police quickly surround a large bank embedded into central street.

“Long day?” He asks to the Police chief, George Stacy, who frowns at the web head.

“Focus, we got Shocker in the main Lobby, zapping anyone and anything that gets even a few feet near the parking lot, we’ve cut off the block to avoid casualties and civilians.” George said, Spider-Man nods and points to the bank.

“I’ll take out shocker, it’s up to you guys to finish clearing the block in case something happens.” He swings away and lands on the wall, crawling in though a window he sneaks onto the roof, the bank is, well was before it got blown to bits, a nice regal place. Marble floors, beautiful pillars and all, Spider-Man stood up and smirked. Standing below him was shocker, ready to fight anyone coming into the door.

“Got a hot date shocker?” He says, Shocker turns without hesitation and blasts his electric bolts, Spider-Man leaps out of the way and onto a pillar.

“Oh Cmon man? You’re breaking my heart.”

“Grrr! Step off Spider before I fry you!”

“Yeah, Like im Gonna let that happen, so why don’t you do your old man a favor and just surrender?” He asks, Shocker responds by attacking again, Spider-Man leaps over him and fired his web shooters, beginning to slowly web up the shocker, avoiding a blast but getting knocked into a pillar, he sees shocker wind up for a big blast, using his slingers he hurls a table at him, letting the attack hit that and causing a substantial sound wave, knocking the glass out of the doors, Spider-Man lands from the attack and prepares to fight, before seeing an incoming call on his mask. Gwen.

“Uh, Hello?” He asks, inside his dormitory, Gwen was sitting there, waiting for him.

“(Y/n)? Where are you? I thought you were ready to study?”

“Uh Yeah! I Just had small detour?” He says, avoiding a death blast, he webs shocker by the ankle, making him trip.

“Look I promise I’ll be there, just wait a little longer.”

“.. you aren’t doing anything dangerous are you?”

“No, you know me.” He says back, trying to convince the girl, who was silent for a moment.

“…Yeah.” Gwen responds with a bit of deadpanned sadness. She hangs up and Spider-Man turns to shocker.

“Alright, can we wrap this up I have something super important to—“ he says, before another incoming call appears.

“Again? What she’s—“ his distracted headspace was the perfect opportunity for Shocker, who hits him with a heavy blast to the chest, sending him flying out of the building in slow motion in front of the police, time slows down and he quickly fires his webs against the wall, using the momentum like a slingshot, he flies back though the building door with a big drop kick, sending Shocker into the wall stumbling, he changes his cartridges and fires his classic impact webs! The hit and explode on contract with Shocker, webbing him perfectly. He grabs and spins him around before hurling the villain right out into police custody. He sighs with relief and collapses down to one leg.

“Well.. that sucked, alright.” He stands up, taking a few deep breaths, before swinging out of the bank and back to his dormitory, bring a Highschool student on a boarding school in New York wasn’t the worst thing, granted he had no roommate so keeping his identity was much easier without his parents walking in on him. Granted it still was a hassle with school, but he made it work, he stumbled into the room via the window, tumbling in as he held his side, he tore off his mask to sigh in pain.

“Okay, just gotta get to—“ he looks up, and his eyes ran straight into Gwen’s, she looks rightfully stunned as he stands up, holding his side.

“I..can explain.” He says, and Gwen starts to get, obviously frustrated.

“Is this what you’ve been doing?”

“… Yeahhhh..” (Y/n) sadly admits, and Gwen was at a loss for words.

“I thought you were working at a homeless shelter or something, you’re Spider-Man? Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I wanted to! I just never really knew how you’d react.” He responds, her anger grows.

“So you lied? All this time?”

“Yeah, for a good reason Gwen! If I had told you and they found out who I was, I don’t know what would happen if something happened to you because of me.. I’d never forgive myself.” He admits, and her anger slowly began to subside.

“What do you mean?” She asks, and he sits down on his bed.

“If someone found out that I’m Spider-Man, they’d go for the people I love the most… and that’s, you.” He says in a halfway confession.

“..Love?” She asks and he nods, Gwen approached and sat next to him, her hand gently laying on his.

“I totally understand why you’d feel that way, I see you fight for you life protecting everyone, my dad included, even though he hates your guts. I was mad But, i Understand why..” she admits, and she smiles so, earnestly and the way she always smiles just, warms his heart.

“Thanks Babe, you don’t know how much it means to me to get this off my chest.” He says, Gwen slowly leans in, and (Y/n) does as well, taking the opportunity to try to kiss her, suddenly a hole in the ceiling begins to form seemingly out of some scientific tech, and a white figure landed. She Checks a device on her wrist.

“Rats, might not be the right universe to—“ she halts as she slowly turns to her side, and sees (Y/n) and Gwen staring at her, which was more of a surprise since Gwen was staring at another version of herself

Spider-Gwen. Normal gwen turns to (Y/n).

“So.. Something else you didn’t tell me about?”

[filthforfriends]

next chapter of TSITCOE is halfway done, but I haven't made much progress the past few days since pulling a bank job is easier than getting my Adderall refilled which means writing sessions go like this:

👩🏻‍💻okay we've finished the kissing scene, what next?

👹 FINGERING

👩🏻‍💻 no. they need to have a big, momentous conversation, but I have to figure out what comes in between and -

🙋🏻‍♀️a sequence where they end up sleeping in the same bed!

👩🏻‍💻 we just did that. it would be crazy repetitive

😈 they don't care!

🙋🏻‍♀️ and you already wrote it!

👩🏻‍💻 shut up! as I was saying, we need to figure out what comes in between and how much should come in between. which is why I 've mapped out all major and minor plot points -

😈BOOORRRINNNGGG go on your phone

👹 write a sex scene!

👩🏻‍💻 how does that fit into y/n being at work, like at all? in any way?

😈 just skip to it! you already set it up anyways.

👩🏻‍💻 I can't just skip! I've been building up -

👹 he walks in on her riding her new Vibe Pad and he's all sweaty because he was just at the gym and she was supposed to be done masturbating by the time he got back but she's so horny that -

👩🏻‍💻 that is a one shot that has nothing to do with the plot.

👹so he just sits and watches and she doesn't notice. and she's just fantasizing about him in a way she's only been able to do quite recently, since before the grief of loosing him hurt. Like picking back up on the fantasizing about earning his raw cock. Like what if they were playing and he wore a condom as punishment because she was being whiny and she had to beg him to take it off and fuck her raw.

😈 see? PLOT

👹getting off the way she can only do alone since it wouldn't be fair to fantasize about him with someone else, but she also can't fuck him. so its really satiating to relive those memories and really getting her worked up simultaneously because y/n just wants to ride his cock so bad

👩🏻‍💻is this going anywhere besides horny?

🙋🏻‍♀️ her horniness is a large part of the plot, to be fair.

😈you've edged your readership long enough they're gonna unfollow, dumbass.

👹and she's trying not to fantasize herself into little headspace because she knows going through subdrop alone will hurt, but at the same time she can't help it. so she starts saying "Daddy" out loud since she's so into the fantasy and Damiano gets up and -

🙋🏻‍♀️ actually we clarified early on that "Daddy" is an honorific she rarely uses so she'd have to be using "signore" here.

👹UGH FINE. grinding for so long made her sore, reminding her of times they'd played with pain and she starts fantasizing about those. so she needs to cum once more but its hard so she says "signore" out loud to get herself really into it and Damiano kneels behind her and says "signore is right here."

👩🏻‍💻 so this isn't going anywhere. just as I anticipated. Cool.

😈 your definition of plot is so closed minded you know that?

👩🏻‍💻 you have the attention span of a beetle, you know that?

👹but it FULFILLS this primal need/fantasy. Since he wasn't there before, but now he is.

👩🏻‍💻 fine, elaborate on that.

👹 thats all I got actually.

🙋🏻‍♀️Damiano just being these is a fantasy after so many months dealing with her submissive side alone. Simply having a Dom to catch her is deeply satiating and healing since the emotional consequences of sub drop made her less vulnerable as a person and a partner out of fear aversion.

👹which created a fantasy about this in particular! yes! YES!! she fantasizing about masturbating, thinking of him, and him randomly showing up to be there and do his role.

😈 which is healing or whatever

👹so they she gets off the Vibe Pad, which was really just a placeholder for Damiano anyways, and rides his cock right there on the bedroom floor, crying because she's already over-stimulated but she needs it so bad and is mentally so turned on that she starts shaking because her hormones -

👩🏻‍💻no. sex. YET.

👹GRRR. FINE, BITCH. He collars her and has her sit between his legs while playing with her clit and its one of the collars thats half chain, so you can loop your finger through it and pull it tighter.

👩🏻‍💻anyways, BACK TO THE PLOT. She's at work and maybe one of her colleagues tells her a heartfelt story about their grandparent passing and she feels like shit for lying.

😈literally falling asleep from boredom

🙋🏻‍♀️use the lady with the berry nail polish so we don't have to establish a new character.

👩🏻‍💻thank you. SOMEONE is being helpful at least. Then they go home and cuddle on the couch. Maybe a sweet moment where Cheeto sits on Dami's lap for the first time?

👹then a sexy massage!

👩🏻‍💻Maybe...

👹NAKED

👩🏻‍💻 No.

👹CUM PLAY

👩🏻‍💻 BACK IN YOUR CAGE! BACK!! NO BITING!!

[violetsarepurple-fuckyou]

Been writing a lot of Magicians fanfic lately and I've noticed a trend...

Forget about past tense, present tense... what about past-past tense? This is what happens when you are already writing in past tense, and then one of your characters decides to have a memory, and you go 'oh ok darling! A quick little insight into what caused your current mental state, how lovely!' and then they fORCE YOU TO WRITE FOUR PAGES OF THE BEST WRITTING IN YOUR WHOLE FIC WITH 'HAD HAD' USAGE OUT THE FUCKING WAZOO.

Most of my characters I can keep a lid on this with, but some people (side eyes Quentin Makepeace Coldwater) are apparently uninterested in my lid keeping practices.

I can't cut the damn stuff out, it's the best stuff in every fic, and I can't make it its own chapter because that clashes with the structure and the character voice.

Eliot, Eliot is easy to keep a lid on. When he has a memory we get an acceptable two sentences in and then he represses it hard and continues his conversations like absolutely no inner turmoil is taking place.

Quentin Coldwater on the other hand, without fail, lets me write him doing an activity in the present for all of one paragraph before he starts stomping his feet all over my keyboard and crying at me to let him take a long rambling walk through his weirdly poetic mind palace.

I try to steer him back into the current action and plot, and he wet-noodles like a toddler who doesn't want to leave a store. He cries and cries and cries until I go "Fine! You can finish thinking about Eliot singing to his tulip garden at the mosaic!" and then he pops up, chipper as anything, writes 2k about how gentle Eliot was surrounded by blossoms in the hazy red glow of sunset, and then acquiesces to return to the plot for all of five seconds before something reminds him of Teddy's mittens and he's off again.

What I am learning from this is that -- and I already knew this but now I know this -- every time Quentin is staring off into space while ostensibly involved in the conversation surrounding him on screen in season 4 he is actively disassociating into the mosaic timeline.

Little shit is forcing me to write in present tense just to keep him grammatically under control. I have like twelve Magicians WIPs in the works right now, and Quentin is adding so much time to it.

(Sucks that he is also SO fun to write, and I flow so easily in his headspace, grrr...)

[aiwobonappetit]

A, B, C, D, E, F - for my new brother-in-law (Rosho) /hj

Thank you Jules …. :) WE’RE NOT ENGAGED THO. GRRR 😡 /lh

This is gonna be long so it’s under a read more

A - Activity what’s something they enjoy doing together?

Watching documentaries, cooking, grading Rosho’s students’ work and hanging out with Sasara and Rei. We’d also try listening to each other’s favorite kind of music

B - Bashful what’s something one finds embarrassing about themselves but the other finds adorable?

I LOVE HOW EASILY ROSHO GETS FLUSTERED. His shyness is just…augh. Oh my gosh. If I dote on him about how red he gets, he will tell me to knock it off but still won’t leave me alone.

Rosho thinks it’s cute when I try to be cool in front of him but get embarrassed and revert back to being a dork. He says I’m a “good actor” but reminds me it’s okay to myself.

C - Calm how do they calm the other down?

When Rosho gets anxious for whatever reason, I take him to the side and help him breathe. I try to uplift him and remind him that he’s a strong guy who can do anything he puts his mind to. When he relaxes, I joke with him a bit to get him going again.

When I get upset, Rosho tries to get me to tell him what’s wrong first. I can be stubborn tho, so instead he tries to make me laugh. He loosens up and tries to get me to play along with whatever he’s doing. Afterwards, I feel okay with telling him my troubles. It’s a little embarrassing for him, but he’s happy when I rely on him.

D - Danger how do they react to finding out the other person is in trouble?

Rosho would lose it. He’d immediately panic and round up Sasara and Rei to form a search party for me. His former delinquent roots would come out and he’d have his hypmic ready if he needs it. Afterwards, we’d probably get into a small fight about safety but he gets emotional and tells me I need to be more careful.

I would also freak out! But instead, I’d resort to violence before using my hypmic. Afterwards, whether I’m beaten up or not, I’m getting Rosho OUT OF THERE. Again, he’d get upset about me diving in instead of thinking. He’d also probably patch up any wounds I have and make me stay the night to keep an eye on me.

E - Encourage how do they encourage each other?

For Rosho, it really is just that “if I had a lame BF…” post. I like to hype him up and make him feel good about himself! I might flirt with him a bit so he can do his best to spite me hehe.

For me, he’d stay by my side and reassure me where I need it. It’s not quick, convenient comments either. He’d take his time to help me feel confident and makes sure I’m paying attention instead of turning away in embarrassment.

F - Flirt do they flirt? If so how do they flirt?

Rosho can flirt…if he’s in the right mood and headspace. Otherwise, he’s either receiving it all from me or gets too flustered to finish his pickup lines.

His affection is often through words. Most of his sappy comments slip out before he realizes it, but oh god he knows what to say when he’s actively trying. He also pushes himself to initiate touch (ex. hugs, chin tilt, etc.) but I can still see him trying not to crumble. I still let him have his moment tho. :)

[twilightofthe]

STORIES OF LIGHT AND DARK SPOILERS BELOW!

Ok so Stories of Light and Dark has been out for a day and throughout different stalking of different blogs who have read and reviewed it, I have some idea of what I’m in for 

Tbh I got my hopes up a little too high to begin with despite being nervous for it because I guess I was expecting some more in-depth looks at some of my favorite episodes, and the thing is that this book is ultimately made for younger children and is written very straightforward and summarizing for them in mind.  Which is fine, kids rock, and now I know not to expect too much introspection lol

I still haven’t read the book yet because I unfortunately don’t have a library card (I really should dangit) and I wanna wait until I’ve got my hands on the whole thing so I can’t read the two free Amazon chapters.  Instead I’ve happily spoiled myself wherever I can and this is the summary I’ve gotten from the talk I’ve heard so far:

You can’t go wrong with whimsical trollish old man Yoda so his chapter is sweet and fun, which is nice because I think it summarizes the very first episode and he was so sweet with the three clone troopers to begin with so I’ll like that

I’m going to need to let down my expectations for the Dooku chapter solely because it is based off one of my all-time favorite TCW episodes and if I already love the ep, I’m not gonna be able to view the book as fairly when it doesn’t have anything but the dialogue.  Still, apparently there are a few lineage moments in there and I know I’ll enjoy that

Anidala chapter!  I’ve spoken way too much about how I feel the show needed more of Anidala actually being a cute couple lol, so apparently this chapter is simplistic and has more of those cute moments so hey, ya know what, I’ll take that (isn’t it set during the hostage crisis ep?  I’m not sure but if it is it might make me like the episode better because I’m a Sucker for fluff).  One thing is that since it’s the only Anakin chapter, while I’m glad we get Anidala, I kinda wish we had had like, another that got solely into his headspace-- ok ok ok basically what I’m saying is that I wish the Mortis arc was in here because it’s my favorite and I feel him narrating that would be a real interesting read do not mind me xD

Padmé chapter!!!!  Ok so I am Wary about this chapter.  Was wary about it before because I haven’t exactly found a Padmé portrayal in a book/comic that I’ve quite agreed with before, idk, I’m just ridiculously picky about my Pads interpretations I guess???  But yeah and most of the other reviews I’ve seen of that chapter is a collective “Hmmm idk...” and particularly on Padmé’s characterization, so that is just increasing my wariness lol.  The Heroes on Both Sides ep is the one I think it follows, and I always found that one kinda interesting as an insight on Pads so I’ll see how I like what’s done with her here.  If not it’ll literally just go in my discarded Padmé pile I have for her xD

Will also need to let down my expectations for the Umbara chapter cuz idk it’s also one of my favorite arcs that I hold to very high standards so I guess I can’t expect the chapter to make me have the feels I did in the show because it is literally impossible to put the characters through any MORE hell than the show already does.  I’ll just have to play sad background music and revisualize the entire ep in my mind as I read, it’s not bad, it’s the same plot that makes me hurt and love at the same time, it’s just nothing special

Only saw one review of the Ventress chapter and it was a very glowing one so now I’m VERY excited for that considering that she’s always been a character I’ve never quite been able to understand in the show, as cool as she is.  

I have purposely avoided all spoilers of the Cad Bane chapter specifically because I want the reaction first from a Certain Friend Of Mine (you know who you are)

Oooooh the Maul chapter I’ve heard is also really good.  Maul’s a difficult character for me to write, so I’m excited to see how someone else pulls it off.  Apparently it’s also kinda purposefully confusing, narratively, which I feel really works for Maul.  And also apparently it’s not all about his Obe-session, which on the one hand is sad because I wanna read a bunch of rambling about Obi Wan, but it’s supposed to be an interesting look on him!

Aight so the Obitine chapter... ok so one big negative point must be given to it straight up because I’ve heard it has Obi Wan of all people bring up the fucking “the Jedi kidnap kids” bit and it’s like bruh.  BRUHHH.  Did the author TRULY need to kick that particular UNTRUE hornet’s nest?!?!?  Like rly, why would they even put that in a canon book when-- GRRR.  Ok but honestly besides I think it’s gonna make me laugh.  WAIT DON’T YELL AT ME YES I KNOW ITS THE LAWLESS AND THE LAWLESS IS A V DEPRESSING EPISODE, LISTEN.  So, I heard some summaries of that one, and tbh it just feels like the author and I watched very different episodes? (or maybe I’ve gone mad watching that ep literally over 30 times for Mutuals hahaaaaa)  But yeah, it seems the author’s choices are gonna be so different from my own interpretations it’ll be honestly funny to try and see the angle they’re coming from
