classification: SFW & NSFW headcannons
inspiration: request^^
warnings: some 18+ content, use of y/n, established relationship
summary: head cannons of Chris with a talkative, yapper girlfriend!
Talkative- M. Sturniolo (Matt’s Version)
Talkative- N. Sturniolo (Nick’s Version)
—
☆ SFW
You love to talk and that’s something Chris has loved about you from the moment he met you. He, much like you, is extremely extroverted, but every girl he’s talked to in the past has always found him to be too much. You’re his perfect match and although he also likes to talk, he loves to listen too.
☆ Chris never gets tired of hearing you talk, “Babe tell me the story about the teddy bear again.”
☆ You retell stories in such a detailed way that he can’t help but burst into laughter even if he’s heard it before.
☆ When you talk about your friends, it’s like you’re explaining their lore in full detail each time.
☆ “No, babe, that was Savannah. I’m talking about Teala,” or “Dude, I’m telling you that’s why they fired that bitch.”
☆ He has all the characters memorized, even categorizing their lives into arcs, episodes, and seasons.
☆ “Wow Teala is in her villain arc,” and “On this weeks episode of, Who the Fuck is Getting Fired!”
☆ He loves asking you questions because you somehow know the answer to everything.
☆ You’ll be eating dinner and suddenly a random question will pop into his mind, “Y/n, what does litigate mean? I heard someone use it today, sounded fancy.”
☆ You look up at him mid bite, slightly confused but also intrigued at a new topic of conversation.
☆ “I think it has something to do with the law, I don’t know, babe. But one time I heard someone say that on one of those court shows…” you drone on for a while.
☆ Chris always Googles the answers afterwards, not because he doesn’t believe you, but because he truly thinks you’re the smartest person on this planet and you haven’t been wrong yet.
☆ You’re both equally insane, you’ll laugh like crazy people no matter where you are.
☆ You tell the best jokes too, your mind works so fast that you’re able to create comebacks and quick, witty remarks to everything he says.
☆ Sometimes you’ll join him and his brothers on grocery trips, and the both of you wander off just completely in your own world.
☆ You’re the only person who can catch Chris off guard.
☆ You’ll say something completely unexpected and outlandish, causing him to pause whatever he’s doing and stare at you in shock.
☆ “Babe! No way you just said that.”
☆ “I said it, and I’ll say it again.”
☆ When you’re with friends, you tend to talk over each other and your friends almost break their necks switching their attention between you and Chris.
☆ To other people it might seem like you’re fighting each other for the spotlight, but in reality you’re able to bounce off each other’s energy and add on to whatever the other says.
☆ He knows what it’s like to be called annoying, so if anyone ever makes you feel uncomfortable for being talkative he defends you without hesitation.
☆ “Watch your fucking mouth. Don’t say shit like that about her.”
☆ Every conversation you have is full of inside jokes that no one else can keep up with, and it’s literally something new every week.
☆ Although other people are confused by the jokes, you and Chris understand each other fully, almost like you speak your own made up language.
☆ You make each other laugh so hard that your cheeks and ribs will start hurting.
☆ “Chris stop! I’m gonna pee,” you wheeze, rolling over on your side as you try to catch your breath.
☆ He keeps going though, making you laugh harder by making silly faces and funny voices through his story.
☆ After long days of filming and being away from you, he’ll cuddle up next to you in bed and murmur through the drowsiness, “Talk to me baby.”
☆ You know he’s tired so you don’t talk his ear off at a high energy, you just retell your day and play with his hair, kissing his face between sentences.
☆ He loves the sound of your voice, each word as sweet as honey, instantly lulling him into a peaceful sleep.
☆ You’re very opinionated and sometimes you say something he disagrees with, instantly creating a debate between the two of you.
☆ The debates always start off innocent, just you two going back and forth with opinions and the occasional fact.
☆ It’s not until it gets personal that Chris gets upset, giving you the silent treatment until you’re begging for him to talk to you again.
☆ “Chris, I’m sorry! Just talk to me, I’m so bored without you!” He tries putting on a tough guy act, but it never lasts long so he’s forgiving you within seconds.
☆ When you’re around older people, they always comment on what a nice, kind couple you two are because you engage in conversation with everyone.
☆ “What a nice old lady,” Chris says, slinging an arm around you as you both walk away.
☆ “Such wisdom,” you chime in, both of you falling into a fit of laughter. You could never take anything serious.
☆ NSFW
☆ Chris knows not to look too into your conversations with other guys, but sometimes he can’t help but get jealous.
☆ He’ll lose you at a party and find you talking to a stranger, an excited aura surrounding you as you jump from topic to topic.
☆ When he sees the guy becoming too comfortable and touchy, he makes his way over to you and inserts himself in the conversation.
☆ Later, he’s fucking you to teach you a lesson and clamping a strong hand over your mouth to keep you quiet, “This dirty little mouth of yours got you in trouble, Princess.”
☆ Other times he just gets turned on by your voice.
☆ He wants you to talk him through the sex and guide him on what positions you want.
☆ “C’mon baby, tell me how bad you want it.”
☆ Despite you both being talkative, there’s times when you’re so fucked out you’re speechless.
☆ The only sound that fills the room is skin slapping and Chris’s animalistic grunts, followed by your whimpers and small squeaks.
☆ He relishes in it, “This dick has you speechless, huh?”
☆ All he gets in response is a whimper, as you claw at his back for support.
☆ Chris loves when you dirty talk him, using your words to say filthy things to him.
☆ It riles him up beyond belief, and if you keep it going he’s lasting at least 3 rounds.
☆ Afterwards, he loves cuddling or spooning, both of you talking for hours about your future together.

“Talk about love.” — JJ Maybank X Fem!Reader
SUMMARY: JJ is in love and he doesn't know how to confess, he has never been good with words, he keeps it a secret until he can't hold it back any more on a party — the problem is (Y/N) doesn't seem to be on the same page.
MUSIC: “Talk about love” by Zara Larsson
A/N: feedback it always welcome!! this is the first OBX fic I am reposting from my old account (I accidentally deleted it lmao) and it was inspired by TAL a song by Zara Larsson, the first version of this story was sadder and I didn't inted to make a second part at the time, today tho I sat down to rewrite and repost it and decided this jj and y/n deserved more of a happy ending so there'll be a second part inspired by another poster girl song!
WARNINGS: English is not my first language. Cursing.
WORD COUNT: 2.180
[MASTERLIST] [MOODBOARD] [PART 2]
JJ drinks the last of his drink, eyes flickering to where she was dancing with her friends, a wide smile on her face while she moves her hips in the beat of the song. He was having a hard time taking his eyes off her all night long. She was gorgeous, always was, but she was even prettier today. Maybe it was because of how happy she looked, singing with all she had, smiling with her friends.
“JJ, I’m gonna get more beer, do you want some?” Kiara asks, snapping him out of his thoughts.
“Yeah,” he nods, thinking it would be good to use the drinking games with John B as a distraction from (Y/N). He doesn't know what's motivating him to keep his distance for so long, he had come to the party with the intention of talking to her, but now he just couldn't, something was holding him back.
“Dude, you should do something,” John B. says.
“Yeah, you’ve been staring at her the whole night.” Pope rolls his eyes, “you’re never like this, why don’t you just talk to her?”
JJ snorts, but inside he feels more insecure, why was he so nervous?
“I’ll talk to her, it’s just…” JJ clears his throat, trying to think of an excuse.
“Just?” Pope raises his eyebrows.
“She’s with her friends, you know, having fun and all” JJ shrugs.
“Please,” Pope and John B. exchange looks before Pope continues, “this was never a problem for you before, JJ. Tell us, did something happen?”
“No.” JJ sighs,“I just want to talk with her about something, and… it’s bothering me, that’s all.” Kiara gets back and hands everyone their beers, she gives him a questioning look before sitting down again.
“Talk with whom? (Y/N)?” she asks then, and JJ nods, “so, what is it?”
“Nothing important.” everyone scoffs, “what?”
“If it is bothering you, it is important, idiot.” Kiara rolls her eyes.
“Look, if you don’t want to tell us, that's okay, but for fucking sake, go talk with (Y/N).” John B. says, and Pope and Kiara agree with a nod of head.
“Okay, I’m going.” JJ says with a roll of his eyes, he takes one sip of his beer before setting it down on the table in front of him and finally gets up to talk with her.
His friends all make cheering noises, and he only gives them his middle finger and keeps on walking.
As he gets closer to the dance floor, though, he can feel his resolving weakening again, he can feel the bubbles of anxiety accumulating in his throat. He stops just at the end of the dance floor, a few steps of distance between them. It takes about five minutes for (Y/N) to notice him, she spins and stops when she registers it is him. Her smile grows bigger and even then, JJ can't avoid it but smile too.
She frowns, however, as she approaches him and swiftly places her arms on his shoulders, “Why are you standing there?”
“I was only watching you.” He shrugs.
“You're never one to just watch,” she says playfully.
JJ laughs, still timid but starting to enjoy being this close to her.
“Is there something wrong?” She asks, usually she would already have greeted him with a kiss, but she is cautious now, and JJ knows she can read in his face that there is something he wants to say.
“Nothing.” he smirks, “you're just too pretty tonight.”
(Y/N) laughs, he can, she is going to let this one pass, and he is relieved. They slow dance for some minutes, totally ignoring the upbeat song playing, but soon enough as they drink more, they fall into the agitated rhythm of the others also on the dance floor.
JJ tries his best to forget what he wanted to say, tries to bury it and keep it quiet, he doesn't want to ruin any of this, doesn't want to risk it all.
But (Y/N) feels it, the change in the air again, walks him to an empty spot close to the wall and stays holding his hand when she gives him a quick, but reassuring kiss on his lips.
“Did something happen?”
When he doesn't answer, she continues, “you know you can tell me.”
JJ can't look at her when he says it, it is pathetic, he knows, but he just can't.
He misunderstands, “J, you've been acting weird since you got here, haven't talked with me and not even looked at me properly, what's happening?”
At those words, JJ snaps his head back, “(Y/N)? You're serious?” She nods,“I've been staring at you the whole night, I can't take my eyes off you.” He says then, refusing to be ashamed.
“So why don't you say anything? Why… Why are you different?” She walks closer and gives his hand a squeeze.
“I love you.” He blurts out. Never one to find the proper words or the right time.
(Y/N) takes a step back, but doesn't let go of his hand, “what?”
JJ clears his throat, there is no pointing in denying. “I love you, (Y/N).”
“Things are good, JJ.” she looks at him worriedly.
“I know, but-”
“We agreed on it, right? That it would be simple between us, no love, no dating, nothing of this girlfriend and boyfriend thing,” (Y/N) raises her eyebrows “we were fine with that, weren’t we?”
JJ feels the bubbles of anxiety starting to gather on his chest and throat again, “We… I was fine with it, I swear I was. But things changed, I don't know exactly when, I don't know how, but-” his voice cracks, betraying him, showing how much her reaction was affecting him.
(Y/N) takes a deep breath, calming herself, and JJ watches as her eyes wander his face, he wishes he could read her mind. “What changed?”
“I don't know. Maybe I did.”
She doesn't answer.
“Is it a bad thing?”
“JJ, I don't want to talk about love.” She replies, a whisper. “But it's not you, it's not you.”
He sighs, it's not conscious, but he distances himself, trying to hide somehow. There's no place for him to go, not when they are in the middle of a party, not when he just confessed his feelings while they are surrounded by people. JJ is trying to think of something to say, how to answer this, how to take it well.
But she searches him again, a step closer, a hand on his cheek, making him look at her again.
“JJ, what makes you think you’re in love with me?”
He knows where she wants to go with this, he knows, but he also knows what he truly feels, and it's not him rushing things or being confused.
“Luke's party,” he says and her face changes, “it was the first time I ever felt… jealous.”
“Jealousy?” She asks, eyebrows raised.
“Let me explain,” he says, and she nods. “I was feeling… different for some days already, but it was the party that made me stop and ask myself what those feelings were.” He stops to breathe, he is happy that her hand is still cupping his cheek, or else he might stop talking with the look she had, “I was fine with it, (Y/N), but it changed. These last few days, all I can think about is you. And I know I suck with words, but I am trying my best here.”
“You don't even know me.” He can tell it was not meant to sound harsh with the way she grimaces right after, but it hurts anyway, “I just… what I mean is, we don't even spend time together outside of this,” she gestures between the both of them with her chin, “what we have is different JJ, I know nothing about your friends, you know nothing of mine, we know nothing of each other.”
“What if I want to?”
She sighs, and he can see tears pooling in her eyes, it takes him by surprise.
“I told you I didn't want…” she trails off, shaking her head and retrieving her hand from his face.
Around them, a slow song started, the couples stared at each other with wide smiles and started to dance together. Fucking great timing.
JJ is frozen on his spot, he is trying his hardest to think of what to say, but she seems to always be quicker.
“I'm sorry, JJ, I really am. But I can't.”
“Why not?” He doesn't want to sound childish or insistent, but it just leaves his mouth.
(Y/N) closes her eyes with a deep breath, he wants to get closer again, hug her to try to calm her.
“We are good at this friends with benefits thing.”
“Why can't we be more?” He gulps, “I am confessing (Y/N), I am in love with you.”
“I know!” She gives an exasperated sigh, opening her eyes, the tears are still there, “I just don't know if I want more.”
He nods, “you are right, I am sorry. I shouldn't… I am sorry I insisted.”
“No, I…” (Y/N) frowns, “I-”
“No, you're right, you don't have to correspond with my feelings.”
“I'm just not ready, please don't be mad at me.” She knits her eyebrows together and for the first time seems to let her guard down.
“It's okay,” he says, trying his best to give her a reassuring smile, “really, (Y/N), it's okay.”
It feels awkward to stand there, he's not sure if he should try to comfort her some other way, if he should just leave. But he has so much to say yet, and she is looking at him like she also has. So he waits, he wants her to be the first.
“What if…” she breathes, “what if this is not love?”
“Why'd you say that?”
“Well,” she clears her throat, “it can be something else. We're young. And,” a dry chuckle leaves her lips, “there is so much, so many people to know, what if tomorrow you meet someone that makes you regret this?… I just want you to understand me.”
“I can wait,” he says then, surprising even himself.
“What?”
“You said you're not ready, I can wait.”
“I can't make you do that.”
“You're not making me,” he finally walks closer, finally takes her hand in his, “I want this.”
“What if it's not what you want?” She raises her chin, “and one day you wake up just to be bored? What if it doesn't excite you?”
JJ knits his eyebrows, “I really like what we have, I love it, and it is not… I don't want an exciting thing, not all the time at least.”
“And what do you want?” There is a hint of doubt there, and JJ hope grows.
“Something simple, something like what we already have.” He smiles, not quite sure of himself, but feeling better when she stays silent and lets him go on, “We chase our dreams at dawn, and it is our secret, that's what you always say.”
He manages to get a laugh from her and his chest erupts with happiness, a welcoming feeling that suppresses the anxiety in his chest.
“I just really want to call you mine.”
(Y/N) looks at him like she is about to break his heart, but he doesn't walk back, by God he'd let her, he'll let her.
“You don’t live with me JJ, you don’t know how I am. I don't think you would like me as your girlfriend.” She says then, and he can see she is trying to sound gentle. “We don’t even spend enough time together to be in an official relationship.” She stays in silence for a few seconds, as if thinking, JJ can't move away from her even if he tries. “I am afraid I am not what you think, that you have a totally different idea of who I am for real.” her voice breaks in the last sentence, and her tears finally spill, JJ feels the lump growing back on his throat.
“I’m sorry, I truly am. ‘Cause I like you. But we are not meant to last, we chase our dreams in the dawn, we are always smiling, we are always having fun, we do things without worrying about the consequences until it's too late. We are good in bed and…” she takes her hands off his, “we are a teenage summer romance. We're not meant to last.”
They stay in silence again, JJ watches her, heart hurting, and still, so in love, somehow even more sure that this is indeed love. (Y/N) wipes her tears off and tries to give him a smile. He doesn't say anything, he knows she needs to go, he needs it too, to think, he knows the best thing to do now is to go home and sleep with these thoughts.
He only gives her a smile back, assuring her that he did understand.
She leaves.

i will defend capcoms translation of aai2 to hell and back because ykw if it gets more eyes on this game then im all for it but theres just. ONE thing that gets me about the new translation dont know if i can explain this very well but whatever ill try
also HUGE HUGE spoilers for AAI2, PLEASE dont read if u havent played the full game
ok so. i was just listening to a steamer play the collection in the background and at the end of the 2nd convo w simeon in ch2 i heard this
and thn i backtracked and noticed that he kept calling knight by his first name
i was like "huh did he always do that? swear he called him by his last name in the fan translation" and turns out he does
the only reason i even remembered that was bc in the flashback convo in ch5 between knightley and simon, when simon calls him horace it REALLY stuck out because up until this point basically nobody has called knightley by his first name, not even his best friend
imo his own best friend calling him by his last name kind of foreshadows the emotional distance simon feels towards knightley and just. dude this was SO intentional
and in case youre wondering, simon calls knightley by his last name, 内藤(naitou), in the japanese version too until the goodbye part where he calls him マノスケ(manosuke)
usually manosuke is written out with kanji, but when he says it here its in katakana which is only used for loan words blah blah blah ok
if im wrong sue me but using katakana like this is either a sign of closeness, like how in japanese edgeworth calls kay ミクモくん(mikumo-kun) in katakana(also probabaly partly bc he doesnt speak formal japanese with like. anyone?? see this post) or emphasis like how capital letters are in english(obv its not a one to one comparison but whatever u get it)
my japanese isnt the best so. take this w a grain of salt BUT
basically. the use of katakana emphasizes his use of knightley's first name so this was TOTALLY an intentional thing(bc otherwise they wouldve just written it normally) that the localizers just i guess opted to ignore???? or maybe im just a crazy person whos watched like every lets play of this game ever and im reading too deep into it
tbf its a REALLY small detail in the grand scheme of things but with how carefully every detail that hints to simon's identity as the mastermind has been planted in this game, its kind of sad that a lot of players will miss out on this
ANYWAYS sorry it was 2am at the time of writing this and im so bad at explaining my feelings but. hopefully this made sense idk i dont write good but like im convinced this flashback and this line specifically is like at least half of the reason i love manosouta
#ace attorney#ace attorney investigations#aai2#aai2 spoilers#ITS WINNING TIIIIIIIIME#capcom. i love you but oh my god sometimes its the little things that make me insane#tbh i never even thought about this before writing it out#simon keyes#horace knightley#simeon saint#bronco knight#manosouta#rant

THOUGHTS I HAD DURING MY MANY RE-WATCHES OF HAZBIN HOTEL & HELLUVA BOSS
Why Vivziepop has an obsession for top hats? No hate, I love the design, just have seen lots of hats
I love that vaggie is the toughest of them all, but she dresses so preppy
Adam gives the same vibe of Andrew Tate (my red flag is that I would Adam anyway)
Charlie deserves the world
I'm afraid that huskerdust could become a bromance (I know it's canon, but I'm scared anyway) I hope we will see more of them in the second season
Vox gives the same vibe of a friend of mine
I hate Val, but his VA did an incredible work, to me he sounds really natural
Alastor has a Karen haircut
The girls who fancy Alastor, are the same who fancy Dr. Thredson from AHS
Emily deserves more credit
I don't like Lilith
I like to think the Vs are all in a poly relationship with eachother
Sir Pentious is the coolest dude (would)
I don't know how to feel about Nyfti
The Italian VA is done so amazingly I prefer it to the English version, I love the original, but this time, Italians did the best
If you watch it while high (I'm not suggesting anything and I discourage any sort of consumption) the soft music as a very low soundtrack in every scene is so silly I love it
For the Italians: Val ed Enzo Miccio sono la stessa persona
Rdj and Vox are the same person
It breaks me that Alastor claims he has to go to the tailor meanwhile he always went around with a worn out jacket
Alastor announcing a podcast is like those old TV stars opening their podcast (I can only find Italian examples, so for my people: come il poretcast)
Stolas such a himbo I LOVE HIM (he's so me I can't)
Kid Stolas is soooo lovely, so squishy I wanna hug him
I love that there are a lot of correlations between Carmilla Carmine and Vaggie
Carmilla Carmine is one of those mothers who make videos of themselves with montages of tiger and lions defending their kids
Blitzø smash
I love that both Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel have such display of healthy relationships and relationships that grow through time, like vaggie and Charlie, Fizzarolli and Asmodeus, Moxxie and Millie, also the dynamics of Father and daughter

having a blorbo in greek mythology and epics is like the ancient world version of realizing the tv show had a different writer for the one episode your critter was wildly out of character and everyone is like "oh that's so them!" ??? did we watch the same show? helen of troy/sparta is a slut no wait she is a perfect woman no no she is a flawed human being no hold on she's a woman making her way in a man's world wait no she is the archetypal victim no wait-
not coincidentally i am reading madeline miller's the song of achilles for the first time and odysseus just showed up halfway through and odysseus'ed across the page so hard he made me fall in love with him all over again. achilles/patroclus is some foundational tragic queer romance, yeah i respect that, but odysseus. the laughing snake that tricks you into forgetting he is always ready to bite. my man
i bet he is a tricky character to write well but as long as he falls somewhere on the wile e. coyote <--> bugs bunny spectrum he is probably in character. because his character is to be tricksily varied. is he just a dude trying to get home? is he a larger than life hero? a rat bastard nobody can trust? the one male in hellas with a working brain who doesn't listen only to his dick or his overinflated ego? a wifeguy (positive)? a wifeguy (negative)? athena's special boy in this generation (telemachus and orestes wiping their noses on their blankets still)? or her latest mortal hackeysack, legs blurring in a looney tunes run between zany schemes, just a bit faster than the other doomed shmucks? all are intensely valid interpretations and go all the way back to homer 2800 years ago. incredible.
someone in the book is making fun of odysseus for bragging about how much he likes the ship, fresh from ithaca!! penelope modeled for the figurehead!!! he gets to see her while they're apart!!!! and that's why i set the book down for a minute. hgn. hdmahflshsk. odysseus sweetie pie i hope you still like it twenty years from now. the ghosts of my middle school english notes defining "dramatic irony" scream in ecstasy from the great beyond

not to talk about yo-kai watch on main but this series is so fucking unhinged. like. here's a compilation of weird shit in yo-kai watch:
• there's one yo-kai who was literally just a dude when he was alive but he got crushed by some wood planks at the same time a dog did so now he's a man-faced dog yo-kai. he gets arrested like five times basically just because of this.
• jibanyan canonically becomes a robot in the future and has gay robot sex. the dub made it even more sensual attempting to censor it.
• there's some segments later on in the anime that literally revolve around komasan and komajiro basically just scolding yo-kai for various things parents complained about. the yo-kai usually do said thing again in the segment. also this all happens in a taxi.
• there's a maid café in one of the games. no i don't know how they got that into an e-rated game.
• there's seemingly some organization who decides when people die and causes their deaths. this is basically a complete non-sequitur in one episode of the anime and is then never brought up again.
• jibanyan's living form when he was a normal cat is a yo-kai separate from him. this is never acknowledged but is seemingly canon.
• there's one yo-kai who was canonically a human before he died and as a yo-kai he's a chicken nugget. i have no idea why.
• one of the main yo-kai in the series is seemingly canonically bisexual for a character who's based on an actual historical japanese shogun.
• the english version of the games translates a language barrier as yo-kai watch america just having a very strong accent.
• every cat yo-kai loves chocolate bars. no the obvious issue with this fact is not addressed.
• in the past there was a literal war started over doughnut filling.
• the games are all implied to take place within the span of a single summer, meaning that in the span of a single summer vacation the main character saved the yo-kai world from a literal TYRANT, saved the ENTIRE FUCKING TIMELINE, and saved both the human AND yo-kai world from the yo-kai mafia. they are canonically 11.
• according to her medallium entry, the yo-kai mermother literally created all life in the yo-kai watch universe. you can only get her through a gachapon machine.
• said gachapon machine is the catalyst for the events of the games, anime and manga. thank god for gacha.
#puppy rambles#yo-kai watch#everyone should play yo-kai watch i think. even beyond being unhinged it's just super good

Size allergy (4/?)
It gave me enough inspiration to be able to continue this story (I'm thinking about making an art of it, although it might take a while)…
Todd has entered the scene and will try to help the boys through this complicated time. I understand that Todd isn't very popular in the fandom, but I really wanted to put him in my story, I hope that doesn't ruin the interest in this one 😅
No warnings here, just comfort and silly moments between the brothers.
English is not my mother tongue, if you see an error, please feel free to comment.
--------------------------------------------------
In the outskirts of New York City, forests abounded where few dared to enter; not so much because of the wild animals, but because of the people who used to frequent these places. From deranged people, to aggressive mutants; however, some time ago the boys found in that forest the only guy who could help them in this situation, probably the kindest guy in the world.
Todd had been a friend of the turtles since he met them and they built him a home for the puppies he adopted. That night, like others, he was out scouting around to round up the puppies that wandered too far away to take them to bed. It was while he was doing this scouting that one of his dogs appeared frightened, running towards him, whimpering with fear and trembling with its tail tucked between its legs.
The mutant capybara for a second thought it was a wild animal from the forest, but something told him this was different. His dogs were already used to forest life and were never that scared of animals. So, he grabbed his flashlight and set out to explore what it was that scared his pup so badly.
He felt noises, and even some shaking, but his instinct told him he should continue. When he reached the clearing where the dog had come from, he saw his beloved turtle friends, but Mikey was certainly different.
“Guys?!” he exclaimed pointing his flashlight at them “What are you doing out so late? And... Why are you so big?” he said pointing at Mikey, who looked as big as a tree.
“Hi Todd...” grimaced the orange tortoise at the capybara's quizzical look.
“It's not that I don't trust you... But we didn't see he until now...” Raph seemed to be arguing with someone, but Todd couldn't hear him.
“Is everything all right?...” asked the capybara as he approached, a couple of cubs behind him were following him cautiously “What happened to you? And where are your other siblings?” he asked with concern; he noticed that Mikey and Raph looked uneasy.
When he got close enough, he could notice two small figures on Raph's shoulders, which looked like a scaled down version of the two missing siblings. Leo waved his hand at him in welcome.
“Todd! Dude, I'm glad you showed up!” exclaimed the turtle leaning on Raph's head as if nothing strange was happening “You see, we're having a liiiittle problem with Mikey, do you think you could help us?” all the while the tortoise smiled trying to appear calm.
The capybara stood for a moment watching, as if trying to process what he was seeing, but instead of jumping in to ask, he decided to put that aside when he saw that the boys looked overwhelmed.
“Of course! That's what friends are for” he said cheerfully, taking Raph's hand to guide him, “I'll make room for you in my house and you can stay as long as you like” he said as he motioned for Mikey to follow them.
Once at the capybara's dog center, he let the puppies give the proper love to Raph needed to de-stress. Mikey tried to pet a few of them, but only a few brave ones approached him because of their size, which discouraged him a bit. Leo and Donnie for their part, preferred to stay away from the doggie shenanigans, they were too big for them now. Todd could tell the boys were worried, so he did his best to try to cheer them up; he brought some of the blankets he used for the puppies when they were born so the twins could be comfortable, he also made lemonade for everyone, even preparing a whole pitcher for Mikey to have a downward serving.
After sensing that the boys seemed to be calmer, he took his leave to go to bed. He invited everyone to sleep inside his house, but since Mikey couldn't go inside, Raph decided to stay outside with him. Leo and Donnie did accept and were carried in the capybara's hands. After making sure they were comfortable he went to rest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Inside the house, the twins were on a high table so as not to get in trouble with the dogs; Donnie was doing checks on his tech and Leo was taking advantage of the size to drink more lemonade and lay under a lamp, letting his imagination make him think it was the sun. He tried to keep a good mood since they had arrived, enough they had with Raph stressed out.
“How do you plan to be able to use your things with everything that happened to us?” he asked his brother at one point; he was a little bored.
“If you guys would pay more attention to what I do, you would know that size is a minor obstacle for me” he answered haughtily, showing a pair of toothpicks he had in his hands, the size of branches in comparison.
“Where did you get that?” Leo exclaimed.
“Todd has a box of toothpicks... I just need a little ingenuity to be able to transform this simple piece of wood into a rudimentary...” he went on to explain.
“Get to the point” interrupted his brother with boredom as he approached the place where Donnie was poking around with his goggles.
“Phew!” he complained about the interruption “I can manipulate my technology to make these goggles work even if it’s not on my head” one of the side compartments was open and Leo watched as his brother used the tips of the toothpicks to move circuits inside “And... Done!” he said closing the compartment “Applause for saving the day!” he said bowing to Leo's indifference.
“So... Now does it work?” the boy approached the back of the goggles to see if he noticed anything interesting, but Donnie stopped him.
“We'll find that out with you!” he pushed him away and stood in the back area “Please! stand in front with your sword and I'll see if I detect anything interesting!” he seemed particularly excited.
Leo didn't understand what his brother was looking for, but he still listened to him and went for his sword. He would never say it out loud, but this sort of thing was more fun than just lounging around by himself. Then he stepped in front of the goggles and struck a pose with his sword.
“I bet I look great” he said doing more action poses.
“Well... The shine is there...” Donnie commented a bit low, which made the other turtle strange “For the record, I'm not saying this because of your comic book character poses... Around you there is a rather subtle pink glow... And also, on your sword for some reason” he placed a hand on his chin.
“What on earth are you talking about?” the fact that it glowed, even if it was a pretty color, worried Leo a little.
“You see... If you thought I was going to stick with Draxum's terse explanation of our allergies, you're wrong!” he said while he pressed something in the compartment of his goggles and then ran to his communicator, which was next to it, Leo followed him curiously “Apparently... What affected us is still around us... A mystical energy that seems to be dissipating slowly, maybe that's why it lasts a week... This should make sense in a living being, since the body reacts to the foreign agent, although I don't understand why it also affected your sword... But with this data I can find out more about this mystical allergy” he made a gesture of quotation marks, but despite what it seemed, the boy looked quite satisfied with these findings.
“Wow... So, we're giving off glitter” commented Leo teasing his brother as he leaned against him.
“Scoff!, that's all you're taking away from my amazing explanation?” he complained pushing him away.
“I wonder if Mikey's weapon has grown with him?” commented Leo observing his sword a bit.
“Wait! Mikey!” Donnie suddenly exclaimed “He got contaminated with something different! I must see how this allergy works on him!”
Then Leo, perhaps curious about his twin's sudden enthusiasm (or rather because he was looking for an excuse to leave) raised his sword and quickly created a portal that sucked in Donnie, his goggles and him to send them faster to their older brother.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raphael was trying to cheer himself up with the help of Todd's doggies, he was a little nervous that Leo and Donnie weren't with him, but it was true that some of the dogs could be very rough with them. Interestingly, he seemed more concerned in comparison to Mikey; after a while together with the dogs, they got used to the presence of the huge turtle and he took the opportunity to hug and pet them gently. His attention then shifted to Raph, he could tell that still his big brother was not at ease.
“Are you feeling right?” he asked catching his older brother's attention.
“Huh... Yeah, why wouldn't I be?” replied the turtle with the red band with not much conviction looking up “That's what I should ask you” he said with concern.
“I...” he looked at his hands, but his eyes were only fixed on the puppies in them “I feel fine now... I'm worried about how much I have left to grow, but I know you guys will be here for me” he smiled genuinely, which surprised Raph.
“Heh... I guess it's not only your body that has grown...” he commented softly “I seem to forget that you have also matured with time little brother” he laughed, but looked at his little brother with pride.
“Aww thanks Raph” he smiled cheerfully, but then went back to his worried look “But seriously, you don't look well... Despite being the only one of us that nothing happened to you” he bent down and put the puppies back on the ground “Seriously, are you feeling ok?” those puppy dog eyes seemed to be more effective now that Mikey was bigger, the older turtle sighed.
“I'm nervous Mikey, not just for you...” he said releasing his shoulder tension a little “I'm worried about Leo and Donnie, they can get hurt very easily now... Also not having told dad that we were coming here worries me... I don't know what to do to fix this” he put his hands on his head and lowered it to the table.
When the boys had barely reached the forest, Mikey again felt the pain that signaled another growth spurt was coming. Due to Raphael's impatience with the situation he started to scold Leo for leaving them in the middle of the forest, while Leo tried to explain that they were near Todd's house; the discussion only made Leo and Donnie shocked by Raph's loud voice and no one focused on the suffering moans of Mikey, who ended up passing another two growth spurts, leaving him approximately 23 feet tall. Things didn't calm down until Todd showed up, and since then Raph had been mentally berating himself for not taking good care of his siblings.
Mikey had no idea everything his brother was thinking, but he did know how to cheer him up. He had been itching to do this ever since he saw his big brother the size of a medium-sized teddy bear, so he picked him up and pulled him to his chest for a warm hug. This took the snapping turtle by surprise.
“Mi-Mikey!?” he exclaimed when his feet left the ground and he was suddenly wrapped between the big plastron and arms of his giant little brother.
“Calm down Raph... I know you're going to work this out” he said as he stroked his head, had his big brother always been so adorable? “And we'll be fine”
Raph, who was still trying to process the sensation of being lifted off the ground, smiled at his little brother, no doubt a hug helped calm his nerves a bit, and though strange, it was still comforting. He smiled slightly.
“Thanks...” he said, happy that at least for the moment things were okay.

in case you all are wondering, i watched wishbone* version of cyrano de bergerac as a child and the premise changed my brain chemistry forever. in high school my friend came out of french class complaining they were watching some old french movie called cyrano and i skipped class to go watch the second half of the movie the next day. peak shipping scenario. you've actually definitely seen cyrano inspired plots!!
the premise for anyone who still hasn't looked it up: cyrano is ~~ugly~~ and in love with a beautiful woman named roxane. roxane is in love with a dude named christian, who is generally less talented than cyrano but more conventionally attractive. cyrano ends up writing love letters to roxane for christian, and roxane falls in love with "chistian" via his letters. however, in face to face conversation, christian is still lacking, and so there's a famous scene where cyrano hides and feeds christian lines. this is where the trope "playing cyrano" came from. also the play (originally in french) apparently introduced the word panache into the english language.
*wishbone is a children's show about a jack russell terrier who acts out classic literature and stories, and is the sole reason i know the premise for a lot of famous stories. a family i babysat for got the same type of dog so i started watching episodes with the kids and IMHO i think it still holds up. would recommend if you need entertainment for a child
#there's a 2021 english language movie adaptation starring peter dinklage which i watched on a plane and did not like#it is. a musical? usually i like musicals but i found the music boring#and peter dinklage acted as well as he always does but his take on cyrano was..... unlikeable in a way that made me not enjoy him#mixed bag

my friend asked me for murder show recs and i put together a list of a bunch of them and thought i'd also share it here in case anyone else who was not raised by the glow of mystery! on pbs might want an intro. extremely subjective commentary, obvs. enjoy.
hello. welcome to the world of finding television shows about people getting killed comforting. it's fucked up, but who isn't. here's a list of the ones i like and why and where to watch them.
midsomer murders (1997-current): this is one of those sterotypical "it ran for 25 years and did nearly 18 episodes" british shows. it was adapted from a book series, which are the early eps. they're really fucked up and great imo. the later ones lose that sharpness, but until seasons 20+ i think it's a really solid show. the theme song is performed on a theremin. pluses: every great british actor shows up at least once, incredibly great deaths, lots of hyper niche hobby groups, tom barnaby is the best. minuses: showrunner brian true-may quoted as saying that his version of "english countryside" is entirely white. he was booted from the show at that point, however. i've watched the entire series 2-3 times, except for s5e3 "Ring Out Your Dead" because there's a death in it that i found particularly tragic the first time i watched it and have no desire to revisit it (but ymmv). robyn's fave ep is s3e3 "Judgement Day," because a brass band plays the show's theme song at a village fete and also Orlando Bloom is run through with a pitchfork. (ACORN)
Poirot (1989-2013): truly the goat. David Suchet bodies this role. i don't know how familiar you are with christie, but hercule poirot was her recurring detective character, a fastidious little belgian living in 1930s England. in this show, it's the late 1930s for 20 years, and the sets and costumes are so good. not a single streamline moderne property in england is overlooked. the early episodes are short--40ish minutes each--but they transition to 90 minutes at some point. they adapt all of the poirot books, with the big ones--murder on the orient express and death on the nile--done as higher budget tv movies. (BRITBOX)
marple (2004-2013): another christie adaptation, with 2 actresses playing miss marple in sequence. they also adapted a bunch of non-marple stories to have miss marple in them. set post-WWII, mainly countryside english mysteries. (BRITBOX)
miss fisher's murder mysteries (2012-2015, film in 2020): set in 1920s melbourne, mfmm follows independently wealthy private eye phryne fisher. it's an adaptation of modern novels, so it's less conservative than the christies. phryne's best friend is a suit-wearing lesbian doctor. it's a sharp, smart show, and phryne herself (as well as her relationship with buttoned-up detective jack robinson) is very sexy. it ran three seasons and was followed by a crowd-funded film in 2020, which isn't GOOD, but it is FUN. there's another a spin-off set in the 1960s called miss fisher's modern mysteries, which follows phryne's niece. again--not good, but fun. nothing beats the og series tho. (ACORN)
lewis (2006-2015): this is technically a spin-off of the inspector morse series, which started in the 80s, but i've never watched it so you should be fine. this follows very un-academic inspector lewis and his very academic assistant DS hathaway in EXTREMELY academic oxford england. i really dig the pacing of this, as well as how profoundly weird smart people can be. the big downside is the actor who played hathaway is laurence fox, who's a real stinker of a dude. right-wing, racist, etc. so. ymmv. (BRITBOX)
vera (2011-current): vera is a nearly retired, irascible, set in her ways detective in northumberland. she heads her own department, so part of the appeal is definitely trim youngsters dashing to do her bidding with a "yes mum." she drives a huge old land rover, wears a raincoat everywhere, has no patience for class barriers, and in short i love her. in the newer seasons there is also a detective in her squad called Jaq who is a very cute butch. (BRITBOX)
dalgliesh (2021-current): adaptation of pd james novels following detective-poet adam dalgliesh. set in the 1970s, which sets it apart and which i quite enjoy. his character is really sensitive and thoughtful is a way that's unusual for cop shows. (ACORN)
annika (2021-current): i'm gonna dive into some of the weirder ones now. annika is still pretty serious, but the title character has a habit of breaking the 4th wall to loop the audience in on the meta nature of her thoughts--usually relating to a book or story. it's set in glasgow and they investigate marine crime specifically. annika is played by nicola walker, who full disclosure i find VERY attractive. she's norwegian, she's odd, and she's trying her best. she has a teenage daughter who's gay. (PBS)
queens of mystery (2019-current): this one is VERY odd. think british murders meets pushing daisies. there's a narrator, and occasional technicolor flights of fancy. it follows a very serious detective who was raised by her three aunts after her mother was killed. she comes back to work in her home town and has to navigate both sides of her life, plus still wanting to know who killed her mother. production was interrupted by covid, so the main actress changed between seasons, but the new person is also very good. (ACORN)
brokenwood mysteries (2014-current): this one is sort of...sillier than the rest? it's a new zealand show set in a small town. it's fairly queer (although not nearly queer enough), and one of the things i love the most about it is it maintains a roster of recurring characters (which i think is only possible because of the small size of the NZ film industry). pretty good maori rep, especially jared, a local who seems to know or be related in some way to everyone in town. i adore him. he's off the show now, and i miss him. (ACORN)
mcdonald & dodds (2020-current): set in bath, this is an odd couple partnership of an ambitious young cop lately from london and a shy older cop who has lived in bath all his life and hasn't seen action in a decade. their interactions are funny and lovely, and it's refreshing to see a black woman character allowed to be ambitious. (BRITBOX)
#took out the julie mentions left in the robyn mention#because their love of a tv show playing its theme song on the show is so funny and i love it#gentle murders#this is like. half the length this list could have been#and that's not even getting into the mini-series

Sasnak City The Kingdom Convention - Day 3
(Link to Day 1) (Link to Day 2)
The final day! This day was a catch up day to make up any missed autographs and photos that didn't get done the first two days.
My group had a ton of photos to make up but we did hit a bit of a snag.
Our first photo of the day went great, a group photo with all four of us along with Mark and Arnas. Arnas once again coming up with the sword pose idea.
However after this photo my friend, who has a medical condition, partially collapsed and had to be brought back to her seat and had to sit out the rest of the photo op session.
(I really applaud the staff at this event for doing everything they could to make sure she was ok but she did end up having to have her own make up session later in the day and sat the rest of this one out.)
I got my last two photos done, one with Arnas and another one with both the boys.
I got to hug Arnas (my life is complete) and they both said good bye to my friend on their way out to lunch.
I also want to give a huge shout out to Rod Hallet (Constantine), after he was finished with his own photos for the day he came and sat with my friend and chatted with her for a bit while the rest of us got our photos done. He had opened his gift bag from the group and had read the poem my friend had write for him and he really like it. (She did one for all the cast, done in anglo saxon style, plus did a version translated in to old english as well). He was very very sweet.
After the photo op session was over it was time for lunch and then we got our autographs from Ryan. He was also very sweet and asked if my friend was feeling better and helped her to a chair while i got my print signed.
After that my friend and I had our meet and greet with Mark.
The man was late. He spent his lunch hour doing some sort of virtual tour thing and then at the last minute decided to eat. He still had half a cookie when he showed up 🤣
We got lots of good info during the meet and greet, including insider info on a new project he is writing that he would like to make one day. A super, super dark comedy.
I also asked about any ad lib that made it in to the show and he told us they did so much! The line about eating too much cabbage in season 5 was aaaalll him :D
We did our selfies.
Then they decided to save time by finishing his meet and greet with autographs in the same room and my friend had a ton of stuff so I was her gopher. Carrying things, running back and forth etc...
We ended up having to boogy back to the photo op room so my friend could get the last of her photo ops (Arnas helped her to and from her chair, dude took pretty much her whole weight and she is as tall as he is). I definitely got my steps in! She also got the last of her autographs from Arnas and Eliza and we had a little bit more time to chat with them.
They really are so, so very amazing.
The convention ended with everyone back in the main hall and watching 2 more short films!
There was 1 film, called Man Made, which featured Cavan and Harry, plaging a father and son and was a little heartbreaking.
The second film was written by Amelia and starred our very own Stiorra(Ruby)! It is called Oh Rats! and it was so amazing, and weird and creepy and i really, really loved it.
The final event concluded with a surprise as well....
This is not the end.
There will be a 2025 event! (Your welcome, my friend and I suggested a 5 year reuinion to the organizer and she took it to heart!)
The actual reason was because a sword she had the cast signed to be auctioned for charity was missing the shield plate (it has since been found) and she didnt want it to go to waste.
So 2025 The Kingdom is a go! It will be open to previous attendees first, and I am already brainstorming how to start saving money for wheb the dates are announced! (I'm opening commissions soon if anyone is interested!)
Ps. Mark is meeting up with Alex in Italy and will put a good word in! So. Maybe an Uhtred appearance next year???

I saw your RMA Post but before i ask, first i love your artstyle its so beautiful and each time i see it, it makes my day :] and second what are your thoughts of S2 part 1 and 2? And if you can rewrite it what will it be?
Aha hello!! I didn't think that RMA post would actually catch any eyes but I'm it did!!
First off, thank you so much! It's the best feeling ever knowing my art can make people happy just like that :]]
As for your question, I recently just rewatched a good chunk of S2 Part 2 but some of the details around the later bits are still fuzzy (rewatching em is quite hard for me as the english dubs aren't exactly that easy to find out there unfortunately)
I will say though, rewatching it really opened my eyes to just how much of a downgrade Part2 is compared to S1 and even just S2 Part1 itself, not just in story but in like the voice acting and animation. The voice direction is a bit off, characters sound flat, and the animation just feels... weirder, if that makes sense. It's not the worst thing in the world though, it's just an unfortunate thing I happen to notice. They also changed some of the VAs I think (liek Rema's) which was a strange decision but alright ig... There's also the reusing of so many games instead of new ones but oh well... Despite all my problems with it though, I like the inclusion of the new characters (Manus and all the other Leos Valiants). The Leos are all such silly guys :]] I do wish the DV7s got more screentime and played a bigger role though, the first episode for part2 really fooled me into thinking they would lmaoo
S2 Part1 still holds up, certainly not as good as S1 but still, it's got charm! I love the setting actually, Old City is such a bright and colorful place with like all these abstract and messed up winding pathways, it's so weird and funkyy, I dig it a lot!
So pretty!! God... just like how funky the cities look with all of them being like giant floating islands, it will always be cool af to me
Ik most of my followers don't care about runningman much but in the off chance some non-rma fan sees this, look at Tree City (pic below), I love it so much
Although... sometimes it really does feel like Season 2 is where the studio decided to lean more into it being a children's show. It's a lot less "dark" compared to S1 which is a tad disappointing. Like just compare Akong's battle (where the dude literally uses a bunch of the old guys to power up his thingy 😭) compared to CG's big mech fight. Still, I liked it! I like the neat guardians (the lil pullulu spirits who guard the gate, Vivace and Ensemble twins my beloved <3).
ALSO ALSO THE IRON BEAST, I can always appreciate a big robot guy aha
That's all I really got for the ramble aha, I'd say more stuff about S2 and maybe my views on it will change overtime but as of now, I haven't even really gotten around to properly finishing it yet. I remember watching it waaayyy back but it was all in korean with zero subtitles 😭 luckily, I am in a server with people sharing english versions so I'll probably watch those when I get more free time!
I really just miss talking about this show really and I feel like I've largely outgrown the fandom in old spaces where I used to talk in (like Facebook groups and Amino lmfaoo), so it's absolutely awesome to find RMA fans over here on tumblr!

Episode 4 of the Hexer
ooo some similarities with Netflix Witcher (and the books obviously) with these guys trying to rob Geralt and then Borch, Tea, and Vea intervene.
Tea and Vea look terrible honestly like a cheap halloween costume. This Borch is younger than the Netflix version. I wonder if they'll have them all flirt as a nod to the orgy that happens in the book.
AAAA WE HAVE HEADBAND GERALT!!!!! WOO WOO!!!
this is very like the book from what I remember. Geralt upfront warning Borch that people don't like witchers and treat them like lepers. All the smiles Borch is giving Geralt are making me laugh a little. Geralt looks filthy and Borch is smiling at him like he's about to start twirling his hair and giggling.
ok we've got a time-skip from the last episode. Geralt's been on the road for several years now.
Geralt is a sensitive dude huh? i'm really liking this convo with Borch it really reminds me of the books. It might be actual lines from the books i'm not sure i dont have copy with me rn.
talking about his principles and how he works to preserve human life but he doesn't like humanity very much.
pfft Borch telling Vea and Tea not to brawl even tho that dude totally groped her c'mon dragon man don't be such a downer.
drunk Geralt defending dragon omg i think Borch might be in love hahaha
holy shit are we getting the orgy??? goddamn we actually got all four of them in the tub together.
Netflix witcher I am looking at you rn 00 we didn't even get flirting!? and they got to be in a tub together!!! what the hell
DANDELION!!!! (edit JASKIER!!)
ok i thought this when I read the books as well but Dandelion introducing himself as poet, bard and unmatched in the bedroom (wink wink) to Borch is not straight behavior.
Secondly Geralt smiling at Dandelion as he greats him with a happy "Geralt" is very sweet. A wonderful into to their friendship.
oh they call him Jaskier in this too. Is Dandelion only a book name then? wait I remember there being some thing about them localizing the polish name for english readers. hmmm yep he's jaskier in the original polish version.
hold on we're probably going to meet Yennefer in this episode too! It's been very book accurate this episode and Jaskier just said they're waiting on a wizard to arrive.
OMG!! i should've just shutup and watched she's here!!!! aaaaahhh geralt's face haha yes
why is there no equality with nudity? I have seen full on female nudity several times now but have I seen even one dick? its sexism is what it is. I want to see a dick, for feminism!
hmm so Yennefer says he wants a lover and a mother (girl i hear you) and he has no purpose just wandering around killing monsters
aaaa they're hanging from the cliff and the reavers want to let them fall. omg Yennefer tells Geralt to save himself
Jaskier's helping them up (my ot3!!)
ooo scary Geralt begging the reaver to draw his sword so he can kill him. and he's back to looking goofy because wtf kinda kill was that i can't even tell if the other guy is dead or not.
ugh this dragon looks terrible. netflix version was also awful. why is it so difficult to design a kick ass dragon? his head is so small compared to his body as well as having tiny arms. Borch skipped arm day and only jacked up his legs
haha jaskier really is Donkey from shrek, dragon flirting and all
that was all very chaotic but they saved the ugliest baby dragon there ever was. Seriously tho that thing is butt ugly
what does Yennefer mean by saying she is a shard of ice? I'm trying to remember the short story. I felt like in that story she felt like there was a part of her that could never be loved or fully accepted and understood and that's what she meant by it. Hmmm I'll have to go back and read it again.

I love your au! It is one of my favorites since not many people tend to include Investiture of Gods and how this possibly affected Erlang (but I also understand why bc Investiture of Gods has many chapters, and there is only one or two English versions of the book). but I wanted to ask, what Erlang stories are canon in your AU? Since myths tend to have many versions and Erlang has a role in Investiture of Gods as well as in Lotus Lantern. Just curious!
Thank you!! I struggle a lot with remembering details of the book but I genuinely try my best to add in what I can because I love how Erlang’s character is more than “HAHA I WANT TO FIGHT THAT MONKEY GUY” and although the movies aren’t always accurate either I like to watch them just in case
What stories are canon…
Well because of the timeline in this LEGO Monkie Kid AU you’d think Lotus Lantern wouldn’t be canon but it is, with that being one of the major reasons why Erlang and SWK’s relationship is so strained throughout the rest of the AU (something about imprisoning your brother in arms and then your blood sister… ough)
I wanted to do more research on Erlang’s myths but iirc he also freed? Accidentally? The Demon Bull King and another demon because he shot the demon revealing mirror while drunk with Nezha. And I wanted that to be one of the reasons why DBK is out so early in the AU
What else… he had a brother (Yang Jiao) and when the Jade Emperor sent his armies to capture his family only him and his sister, Yang Chan, survived. It’s also why he has such a grudge against the Jade Emperor in my fanfic Boy Savior, the prologue to the AU
I love studying this dude and I LOVE his change of wanting to be loyal to Heaven to leaving Heaven entirely
