»»-----------► y/n is a professional photographer, though she’s been out of the game for a bit due to an unexpected medical issue, she’s back. she got a job ready for a couple days out so why not go to a party with some mutual friends? it was a good idea until she finds herself drunk and kissing one of the most beautiful men she’s ever laid her eyes on. next thing y/n knows her newest client is the same man she was grinding on two nights ago. will something happen with this drunken love? or will it go down the drain just like it normally does?

UPDATE:

this was the very first SMAU that i made, therefor this AU does NOT use they/them pronouns for the reader but she/her.

WIP Weekend (9/14-9/15)

What Am I Working On? (Works with progress in the last few days only)

1: Untitled, dragon!MBJx adventurer SQH

Summary: Shang Qinghua is part of the Cang Qiong Adventurer's Guild. He has been sent on a mission to investigate a mountain where there have been supposed dragon sightings recently. Things go wrong, and Shang Qinghua has to find shelter from a blizzard in a random cave. In that cave, he just so happens to find the dragon he was looking for.

Favorite part (so far):

"Of course, Shen Qingqiu had been the one to suggest Shang Qinghua go. Why couldn’t Shen Qingqiu go? He was too busy with his werewolf husband!! Apparently, the full moon was coming up and his husband needed his full attention. He used the excuse that Luo Binghe would go on a rampage if Shen Qingqiu didn’t tend to him, but Shang Qinghua was fairly certain that was just an excuse to get some time off with his husband. So that left Shang Qinghua to go look for a dragon in this icy wasteland!"

Word count (so far): 1447

2: Untitled, exploration of MBJ's teleportation ability

Summary: Mobei Jun's teleportation ability relies on his ability to control shadows. It's an ability unique to him, and he has always kept it to himself. However, he finds himself wanting to share it with Shang Qinqhua.

Favorite part (so far):

"The shadows had always listened to Mobei Jun. He could call upon them and travel through them as easily as he could ice. Even amongst his kin, this ability had always been unique to him. Even Luo Binghe, the only other demon Mobei Jun had ever met who could teleport, relied on his ridiculous sword in order to do so. The shadows were something for Mobei Jun alone.

But now, he wished to share them with someone for the first time. With Shang Qinghua."

Word count (so far): 253

3: Untitled, Witch!SQH x Familiar!MBJ

Summary: Shang Qinghua should have summoned a familiar years ago. Everyone has been pestering him as to why he hasn't yet. Finally, he gets sick of all the questioning, so he decided to summon a familiar. He expects something simple, like a rodent or maybe a cat if he's lucky. But what's this??? He managed to summon a demon lord?? And the demon lord agreed to be his familiar?!

Favorite part (so far):

"Shang Qinghua looked down at his spell book for what seemed like the millionth time. He was certain he hadn't fucked up the spell. There was absolutely no way. It was perfect down to a T. So…

Why the fuck was there a demon king in his room???"

Word count (so far): 328

Chapter One: A Birthday to Remember

(Index/Masterpost) (Previous) (Next)

“Sonic, quit playing with the speed gun!” The admonishment was met with a huff, and Sheriff Thomas Wachowski rolled his eyes mirthfully behind his shades as his kid slouched in the passenger seat of the cruiser, glowering out the window as only a teenager could do. Unable to help himself, Tom reached over and flicked one of the blue hedgehog’s ears, snickering quietly when Sonic batted his hand away with a scowl that fooled absolutely no one, least of all his father. “Hey, no pouting, kid. You wanted to come along.” Tom reminded him.

“But I’m bored.” Sonic complained. He dramatically flopped against the seat and knocked his signature red sneakers against the dash, golden buckles gleaming in the late afternoon sun.

“Dunno what to tell you, bud. Not like you don’t know how it is at the speed trap.” The man responded unsympathetically and took a sip of his coffee…which had turned cold in the hours since arriving at the ‘Welcome to Green Hills!’ sign at the edge of town. Tom furrowed his brow and gave Sonic a suspicious quirk of his brow for the umpteenth time that afternoon since the blue blur had begged to come with him on shift earlier that day. “Why did you want to come with me again?”

At once, the hedgehog sat up straight and flashed Tom a cheek-splitting angelic grin that showcased every one of his teeth. It was slightly unnerving, and only played on the Sheriff's instinct that something was amiss. “A hedgehog can’t choose to spend a perfect day with his very perfect and awesome dad?” Sonic asked innocently.

“Oh god, please don’t tell me Tails set the garage on fire again-,” Tom lunged for the radio.

Blast his middle son for being the speediest creature on planet Earth. The radio was twirling around Sonic’s gloved finger by the cord while the teenager reclined back, the perfect picture of nonchalance in his baseball hoodie and jeans. “Chill, Pops.” Sonic dropped his free hand to rest over his heart. “The garage is still intact, Scout’s honor.”

Tom narrowed his eyes. “You were never a Scout.”

“Tails is.” Sonic reminded him with a wide grin.

“Sonic-,” His father groaned.

“Baseball star’s honor, then.” Sonic waved his hand. When Tom’s skeptical expression didn’t fade, the resident Blue Devil sat up. “Look, I’ll prove it to you.” He held the radio to his mouth and clicked it on. “Breaker breaker, this is Cruiser Alpha-Foxtrot-Omega containing the somewhat-awesome Donut Dad and the infinitely legendary Blue Justice—trademark pending—,” Tom facepalmed and did his best to stifle the snort that would definitely encourage his son’s theatricality. “Seeking to confirm with the Bear Cave about the Donut Dad’s Donut Box-,”

“Seriously?”

Sonic ignored his father, but the grin on his peach muzzle gave away just how entertained he was. “-Is still in one piece with no threat of getting chucked in the trash because a Bear Claw couldn’t stop the Long John from getting burned?”

“My son is insane.” Tom buried his face in his hands.

Radio silence answered for several long moments, until Deputy Wade Whipple’s hesitant voice replied. “Umm…Tom’s already ate the donuts we bought this morning for his birthday, Sonic. I can tell Maddie to pick up some bear claws and long johns when she goes to pick up the ca-,”

“-Carrots for Ninny’s stew for dinner tonight; yeah, I know, Wade, it’s okay!” Sonic quickly interrupted as Tom narrowed his eyes suspiciously. Sonic shot him a completely unconvincing grin and thumbs up. “Dad just wanted to check and make sure the house would still be standing when he gets off shift!”

“Why wouldn’t it be?” Wade questioned, puzzled. Tom could perfectly picture the confounded expression on his deputy’s face. “I mean, I know Tails almost set it on fire again earlier this week, but unless something happens, I think it’ll be fine.”

“See, Donut Dad? Perfectly fine.” Sonic shot his father a smug ‘I-told-you-so’ grin.

“Gimme that.” Tom snatched the radio from Sonic. “Wade, Sonic’s acting shifty about something and we all know he’s a terrible liar-,”

“Hey!”

“And I know you know something, and I want to know what that something is.” Tom ordered.

Inside the station, Tails shook his head frantically at Wade. Wade swallowed thickly and scratched at the collar of his uniform…when had it gotten so tight on him? “I don’t know what you mean, Tom.” Wade chuckled nervously. “Everything is fine; nothing’s going on. Tails is just helping me get the office organized for you-,”

“Tails?” Tom interrupted, shooting a look at Sonic, who in turn forced a toothy grin…though his wide, panicked emerald eyes made it easy to see through. “I thought Tails was hanging out with his friend Bryce this afternoon.”

“Did I say Tails? Of course, Tails is at Bryce’s! My bad, I meant, er, my tail’s getting busted organizing the station, it’s so cluttered in here!” Wade babbled. Tails facepalmed.

“We just cleaned the office yesterday, Wade.” Tom deadpanned.

“You’re right; we did do that! Woo, that was a fun day, wasn’t it?” Wade cheered, sweat pooling on his brow. “All those papers and…and folders and slips and…more papers…”

“Wade…” Tom sang. Sonic had long since ducked his head with a groan, ears pinned back into his quills. “What’s going on?”

“Nothing, Tom, nothing at all!” Wade shrilly exclaimed. “Nothing even remotely important at all. It’s so boring over here, with all the cleaning and—ooh! Maddie just walked in; I should help her out, wouldn’t want your ca-,”

“OKAY THANKS WADE BYE!” Sonic screeched, ripping the radio from Tom’s hand. “No need to bore Dad to death with the boring cleaning and I’m sure Mom would love some help with the carrots, why don’t you help her now?!”

“Good idea, Sonic, see you later!” The radio crackled and went silent.

“Good old Wade, eh?” Sonic nervously chuckled…and sweat profusely under Tom’s unimpressed stare and cocked brow.

“Sonic.” Tom deliberately drew out his son’s name. “You know what day it is, right?” 

“Saturday?” Sonic suggested.

“Yes, it is Saturday.” Tom patiently agreed…too patiently. Sonic fought the urge to shrink into the seat. “But it’s also November 2nd, and I think you remember what happens on November 2nd?”

“Umm…Daylight Savings Time ends?”

“That’s November 4th.” Tom corrected. He sighed. “It’s okay if you forgot, champ. I don’t mind. When you get my age, your birthday becomes just another day.” Sonic’s ears lowered slightly, and Tom chuckled and ruffled the short fur between them. “But you know what I would like on my birthday?”

“An endless supply of sprinkled chocolate donuts?”

“Tempting.” Tom laughed. “But no. For my son to be honest with me if he and any of my other sons got themselves into trouble.” He winked. “And since it is my birthday, I’d be willing to cut my sons some slack…so long as whatever mess they got into isn’t too big.”

Sonic crossed his arms with a defiant jut of his chin. “What makes you think there’s trouble?” He challenged.

“Sonic, the last time you willingly sat at the speed trap with me all day, you, Tails, and Knuckles blew a hole the size of a Ring in the ceiling from roughhousing.” Tom reminded him. “After I’d already told you to knock it off!”

“That wasn’t my fault!” Sonic indignantly squawked. “Clifford the Big Red Rage Monster punted me like some football-!”

Tom shook his head. Whoever said raising boys was easy never had to deal with three superpowered alien boys with penchants for mischief a mile long. “And then you three decided that instead of telling me or your mom about it, both you and Knuckles decided to hold me and Mom up at work, while Tails patched the hole and Wade covered for all three of you. Remind me, how well did that work out?” Tom pointedly hummed.

Sonic winced. His bottom still ached when he thought of it… That had not been a very fun summer for any of them, confined to the house and only allowed to read or stare at the walls…after sacrificing their hard-earned chore savings to repair the hole in the ceiling. “Okay, okay, but there’s no trouble this time, I swear! I haven’t even seen Knucklehead or Tails all day, so why would I be covering for them?” The hedgehog reasoned.  

Before Tom could press the inquisition further because he knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that something was up, the radio crackled to life again. “Hey, Tom.” Wade called. “We’ve got a situation at City Hall. Some kids decided to vandalize the place, and the mayor is not happy about it.”

Tom groaned. “Perfect.” Just what he needed today. The sheriff flipped on the cruiser’s lights and sirens and pulled onto the street leading into Green Hills. In his annoyance, he didn’t spot the swift smirk that flashed across his son’s muzzle before the hedgehog let out a whoop and dangled his head out the window in a perfect imitation of Ozzy. Tom rolled his eyes, grabbed the teenager by the back of his hoodie, and yanked him into the seat, ignoring the petulant glower to instead order his kid to buckle up.

The last thing he needed on his birthday was his wife lecturing him for their son getting flung out of the window of his cruiser…again.

It was only minutes into the drive that Tom was stunned by the amount of traffic surrounding the Green Hills City Hall. “What, did everyone in town need to come take a look?” The sheriff muttered and struggled to navigate the sea of vehicles and citizens blocking the surrounding block.

“Maybe everyone’s bored?” Sonic suggested with a shrug. “It has been pretty quiet the last couple years since Eggman disappeared and the GI Joes lost interest in us. Oh, look, there’s a spot!” The blue devil vanished from the cruiser before Tom could object and directed his father to a space at the end of the block, complete with lights and a horrid yellow safety vest that absolutely swallowed the teenager. Tom rolled his eyes but followed directions, climbing out of the car and blinking behind his shades against the bright November sun peeking through the cloud cover.

Just as Tom had assumed, the entirety of Green Hills had gathered outside City Hall, talking and pointing to the white stone building. Tom rushed up the steps to the entrance, where Mayor Jones stood with an unreadable stony expression on his weathered face. Tom frowned and strode up to him. “Mike, what’s going on?”

Mayor Jones sighed. “Glad you could make it, Tom. Seems some kids thought vandalizing City Hall would be a great pastime.” The mayor furrowed his brow, pursing his lips. “It’s rather odd, though. Most of the time, it’s just graffiti; nonsense stuff, you know?”

“Yeah?”

Mayor Jones clapped a hand on Tom’s shoulder and leveled a befuddled expression on the sheriff. “Only, it’s not graffiti exactly. It’s, well, it’s this.”

Tom barely had time to blink before he was spun around to face the white stone building, then promptly dropped his coffee on the concrete at the banner that unrolled from the borders of the roof to drape over the entire front of City Hall… a banner with his photograph accompanied by ‘LORDY LORDY, LOOK WHO’S FORTY!!!’ in gigantic blocky letters.

Directly in front of the banner stood Maddie, a beaming grin on her face and eyes sparkling with joyful mischief, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Ozzy, and even Wade at her sides wearing equally excited grins and aiding her in holding a truly massive cake decorated as a sprinkled donut sporting a sheriff’s hat and badge with ‘Happy Birthday, Tom!’ spelled out in bright frosting. Stunned, Tom floundered for a moment while Mayor Jones chuckled behind him, and the sheriff jumped when the entire crowd, including his gathered family, deputy, and mayor cheered. 

“Happy Birthday!”

Green Hills City Hall shook with a thunderous boom that drowned out the standing ovation for the misty-eyed Sheriff, and Maddie shot her youngest son a look. “I said no homemade fireworks!” She scolded the twin-tailed fox.

“It wasn’t me, I swear!” Tails cried.

Scarlet lightning vaulted across the sky, followed by deafening booms of thunder. Quakes shook the earth, tossing even the sturdiest man off his feet. Turbulent winds ripped the cake from their hands and tore the banner from City Hall, sending both careening through the air. Tom dove for Maddie as she unbalanced and steadied her on her feet, and Knuckles snatched Ozzy’s collar when the retriever let out a series of barks. Windows shattered and were blown out, car alarms blared, and cracks split the ground as Tom, Wade, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Maddie, and Mayor Jones raced down the steps to the sidewalk, wide eyes on the sky above the town square.

Crimson thunderclouds, crackling with black and scarlet lightning, swirled in the air and darkened the sky above Green Hills, and from the apex of the vortex truly monstrous creatures swarmed onto the small Montana town. Some were gigantic, all thick muscle and towering strength, while others were slim and swift, but all carried an assortment of deadly fangs, claws, even weapons: swords, pikes, crossbows, blasters…and all were turned upon Green Hills and her citizens. “Excuse me, we did not order an alien apocalypse!” Sonic cried, horrified.

“But it appears to have come, brother, so the question becomes what we are to do in the face of it!” Knuckles knocked his large fists together, magenta eyes glinting cherry red with power.

Sonic stepped forward, eyes narrowing as he surveyed the horrors that unfolded upon Green Hills. His home. “The most important thing is the safety of the town. Mom, Dad, Wade, everyone needs to be evacuated. Get everyone out of town. Knuckles and I will cover you.”

“Evacuate where?” Wade demanded.

“Red Peach Ranch.”  Tom interjected. “Close enough that everyone can make it on foot, but far enough that these things hopefully won’t spread too far from the town square to follow.”

Sonic nodded in agreement. It was the best they had. “Tails, you got the hardest job.”

“Figure out what that rift is and how to close it?” Tails guessed.

“If it’s not too much trouble, pal.” Sonic clapped his little brother on the shoulder. “Get going!” Tails launched into the air and zipped away in a streak of orange. Blue lightning flickered through Sonic’s quills, Tom and Wade unsheathed their sidearms from their holsters. Growls rumbled in Knuckles and Ozzy’s chests, and Maddie broke the end of a campaign sign off and brandished the jagged pole like a weapon.

“Well,” Tom commented. “This is one way to celebrate your fortieth.”

This was their home. These were their friends. And they would do everything in their power to defend it.

(This chapter is dedicated to my amazing and beautiful best friend and sworn sister, @maddiebwrites ! She's been a part of 3S since it's inception, and I honestly don't think I would have gotten very far with it if not for her continuous love and support!

I love you so much, my Maddie! Thank you so much for being my pillar of love and strength! This one's for you!)

[ask-cueball]

Lil status update, the next post IS being drawn currently! I was on a trip out of state for 3 weeks and it made it difficult to work on anything, let alone this comic, but I'm home and settled now so I'm more capable of working on things.

I mostly wanted to just make this post saying that the Cohost I was setting up for Ask Cueball is now unfortunately cancelled, as Cohost announced earlier this month that they will be shutting down by the end of the year. I am still looking at alternative options, including Pillowfort, as well as possibly setting something up on a Neocities when I have the time to fiddle with all that code. But until then, this Tumblr account is still the only place to read Ask Cueball. Anywhere else is a repost, and is NOT approved by me in any way.
