#what situations make them feel more like their canon selves

[monkesupreme]

I think about this alot (horror games are my fave even if 80% of them suck ass). Some characters feel like they need to be in psychological horror and others feel like they need to be in survival horror. Sometimes both.

Bruce reads as a survival horror protag and im NOT going to cheap out and say its bc hes a loner yadda yadda its cause hes so eager to protect people and give second chances hes the one that would want to help someone infected find a cure hes the one that would inevitably risk his and others safety to protect One person he simply does not believe in the idea of sacrificing One person for the betterment of others. Hes someone who is quick witted and good at improvising in dangerous situations and good at knowing when he is completely out of his league. U can throw him in group survival-esque stories (typical zombie horror games like l4/d, the show From, etc etc) and hed fit right in bc his whole thing is taking in people Like Him and protecting them at all costs, including the cost of his own life if need be. Hes never the loner he wants people to believe he is bc he cares too much about Every life.

Clark reads as a isolated survival horror protag bc, while he is someone who works well with others, he obv defaults to depending on only himself and hiding from others. Someone who would break away and find his own answers and possibly get himself killed in the process. Dead/space has a man respond to a distress call BY HIMSELF bc that call came from his (what he knew but didnt want to believe) dead wife. Hes someone who makes himself as small as possible to deceive others, and believes in his own mind, strength and cunning to outsmart literally Anyone- hed be the most susceptible to running off alone and getting himself stuck as much as i love him. Think of like. Alien. The Thing. Dead Space. Outlast (tentatively). Real tangible threats but no one can help bc everyone you know is tearing at each others throats like savages. Its very fun to think about how someones positive traits can circle back to being extreme negatives when put into dire situations.

Other stuff i wanna yell about (bruce) and putting behind a readmore to protect ur dash

Bruce ALSO fits in psychological horror really well, its just that survival horror fits him Better i think. His biggest weakness besides his family is his own mind, and he is afraid of having it tampered with at all (who isnt ?). He has an iron grip on his bodily control and when it slips even a little it frazzles him. Silent hill is a given for this kind of thing but theres some really good indie games i think works well for him. Mirror layers is a fave of mine- mixes in the unreality with puzzles and arg style detective work where u work with other people who are also trapped. Yes theres a beast chasing me but dont worry about that, what im concerned w is that my house is suddenly in purgatory and OTHER people need my help as much as i need theirs to get out. Cool as shit. Fits perfectly w the theme of Bruce problem solving his way out of threats instead of just punching their faces in. Funny enough this is also something i think Clark would fit in nicely.

Wanna put clark in horror situations soooo badly- its like his whole being is asking for it

ive seen you say terusai is implied a lot but i dont remember ever seeing you explain why you think that

yeah now that you say it, i dont think ive ever gone into depth about it 😭 its really hard to put my thoughts into words because its sooo much, i started writing a long analysis recently on their relationship, why i believe they have feelings for each other, and why they would work but itll probably sit unfinished in my drafts for a while

for now, i'll give you a few of my most noteworthy thoughts...

the mixer scene has teruhashi unknowingly proving to saiki that her feelings are true, and he accepts that and stops trying to get her to stop pursuing him. i dont believe he ever actually makes any REAL effort to try to stop her from liking him ever again after this. he genuinely hadnt acknowledged her feelings as true or at least not as deep yet, which is why he thinks hes succeeding at getting her to move on until she proves that not only is she still thinking of him, but shes NOT thinking of a fake version of him... shes thinking of HIM... she genuinely enjoys his company even when hes doing nothing but sitting there (which is factually and obviously what he wouldve been doing in this situation, people deny that for some odd reason but like. thats what he does. with ANYONE. even his own family and everyone else who knows of his powers.) and wants him around... i think some part of him stopped because he felt guilty for not believing her feelings were true and trying to control her heart despite her genuine intentions, and another part of him was realizing that he doesnt WANT her to stop having feelings for him... otherwise, why would he drag the other guys away WHILE acknowledging that she wouldnt have gone with them anyway??? after inserting himself into a rock paper scissors game for who gets to be the one to be with her???? HELLO?

and the offu, although i dont believe it was a direct declaration of him being in love with her or whatever, has obvious canon romantic connotations... teruhashis determination is something saiki has admired about her since the very beginning, but it isnt until THIS moment that he thinks in depth about what that entails... she makes him realize all at once that she truly IS the type of person he admires most... and his "offu" is exactly what teruhashi needs, she would have a straight up epiphany if she knew about it, because he DIDNT gasp at how beautiful she is, or anything she forced herself to do, or when she forced herself to CHANGE, he ONLY gasped when she let herself embrace a part of herself that was REAL and TRUE, her unwavering dedication and pride.

THIS chapter is where they both have huge realizations about themselves and each other, and they both prove that theyre more than willing to meet in the middle for the other...

saiki lives his life forcing himself to blend into the background, not because he genuinely wants to but because hes afraid to be SEEN.

teruhashi lives her life forcing herself to be perfect and the center of attention, not because she genuinely enjoys it but because she believes she wont get the validation she feels she needs if she doesnt give everyone exactly what they want from her.

and yet, here saiki is, allowing himself to jump into the spotlight and be seen catching teruhashi out of nowhere and carrying her to the nurse. and here teruhashi is, allowing herself to be seen being imperfect, forgetting something, and not caring about her conversation with these men. FOR EACH OTHER. they both let themselves break down a wall because they care more about the other than about the fake selves they dedicate their entire lives to, THEIR GENUINE CARE FOR EACH OTHER GIVES THEM THE COURAGE TO DO THAT.

and this is probably the number one reason why i think their feelings for each other are implied... this alternate timeline is quite clearly one where saiki is more open with his friends, and he and teruhashi ARE DATING in this universe. theres absolutely no other explanation for the author writing that. he spelled out "IF SAIKI WERE MORE OPEN WITH HIS FRIENDS, HE WOULD BE DATING TERUHASHI"

the saiki of that timeline isnt exactly the same as the saiki we know of course, and their relationship will not develop in the same way, but theres clearly intention behind this and it wouldnt be written and called attention to if there was no significance, youd have to jump through hoops to deny that 😭

overall, i think they both have a lot of work to do on themselves before they can be in a relationship, but not only do i believe they WILL eventually get there but also that they both need each other on their personal journey to get to that point, or at least that they are and will continue to be important in the others journey there, and their romantic feelings for each other are so clear... these two are so important to one another...

Bro if they have just a little milisecond gaze I’m gonna cry and trow up, Top loves he’s son like crazy I cant even imagine the pain of knowing what he has become or has done. And I don’t think ink would stand it neither, let’s remember that the only vial he has left it’s the blue one (sadnes if we consider the prism colection) so my buddy right here it’s avoiding feeling sad over he’s actions at all cost it seems. Maybe it’s actually posible they see eachother??? Since it seems in 0.7 part 2 that ink has some thing planned for the omega timeline and they are there, but who knows.

Maaaaaan ☹️

WAIT YOU'RE ACTUALLY RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING WHAT THE HELLLL LIKE imma assume those two are the canon ones in the omega timeline because there's no need (ig) to intervene with their true selves and stuff so WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT THEM REACTING TO INK IN UVS AND WHAT HE DID WOULD BE HEARTBREAKING ASF☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️😭 YET i'd be super hyped if it happens I REALLY HOPE SO🙏💔💔💔

and the vial thing, yeah.. i always keep this line of mye in mind about the vials not having certain meanings besides the red and yellow/orange ones (wrath/agressivity and euphoria respectively) and that it is more up to the community to think about them more to detail. i did believe in this more confidently when in the prism collection itself the green sticker of ink wasn't representing any gross situation (which are the meanings many people think of first when talking about green) while blue and pink respected more this attachment to the most common meanings, green seemed to symbolize the nature of craftsmanship and that's neat!! though, i didn't think of this collection when analyzing the blue vial left in uvs— AND IDK WHY BECAUSE IT MAKES TOTAL SENSE

i'm very excited to see what ink has planned ahahhqhwbeb🥹🥹🥹🥹🥲😭🥹🙏🙏 like i don't know if uvs ink does have parents in the first place?? IT WOULD BE VERY FUN TO PLAY WITH THAT AT SOME POINT, sounds delightful that your own son doesn't even know who or what you are..... (my inner xgaster begs)

[mimicsapprentice]

Creation's Lore / backstory ~!! (Copy pasted from discord messages so please excuse the cadence + formatting)(+ lack of proofreading)(+ my tentative grasp on Ink lore)

It's tragic on multiple axis actually.... I ended up decided that the entire MV he originates from is actually now Gone. For good. At first it was just Abandoned by its creator but then later was Discontinued, meaning the whole thing actually got erased from existence. He is one of if not the only survivor of this MV...

Now. Creation is a Fresh!Ink variant. But a little to the left in some ways. Rather than just being a Fresh possessing an Ink he's more of a uhh fusion between the 2 of them? You could say. He kind of fully joined with Ink, resulting in a being that was simultaneously both of them together but also it's own unique independent entity. Which is Creation.

The Fresh & Ink he's made from actually had a Thing™️ going on. No labels for what it was, they were just both highly important to the other. They would say that they were together but in what way was a mystery to everyone (including them). 

They initially bonded over the fact both of them were aware of Creators and also kind of very scared of them? Of doing the wrong thing and getting cast aside / replaced / abandoned.... Lots of uh existential crises between the 2 of them. Who they felt only the other would understand in a way? Why they would do what they did, the reasons behind their actions and thought processes? Even if they reacted differently to the pressures.

Now. The catalyst behind Creation coming into existence was actually the MV getting abandoned. Without Creator/s there to help? Ink. Well. He dies; worse than dies really.... Adhering to canon, the source of Ink's vials are the Creators. If they don't provide then Ink goes uhhh catatonic? I think it is? Fully just, not there. Body shut down but not dead, unable to move or to feel or anything.... just stuck living but not really alive...

So with the MV abandoned? Well. There was no longer any source of paint for Ink. He knew it when it happened, since he stopped hearing the Creator/s talk to him. He hoped it was just temporary but even still began to ration out his vials. Trying to make sure he's last as long as possible.... It could only get him so far, of course. 

At some point, when Ink was essentially No More, Fresh snapped and made a choice. They had talked about it before, when things were just starting to get bad. Since Ink's body in that state just becomes a puppet for whoever wants to use him? Ink would rather Fresh had him than anyone else. He would rather it not have to happen at all, still clinging to some hope that this wouldn't be forever, but if it had to? It should be Fresh.

And so it was Fresh. He decided that nothing was going to change, that things were just going to get worse and worse and worse, so he might as well. Ink was the most important figure in his life and he didn't want to be separated from him. He was even thinking about fleeing to another MV, since that is an ability Fresh has. So why not take his Ink with him?

However in his uhhh highly emotional state? Something that he still was only so used to dealing with? Maybe his sentiments went a little to far... Resulting in them more... fusing together rather than just becoming his next vessel. While still kind of figuring out the whole Joint Thing™️ Creation did end up fleeing to another MV. Not all that long after the entire place ceased to be! making Creation the only confirmed survivor who was having a heck of a time dealing with how new Situation™️. 

He wandered around between MVs for a while, meeting new people (mainly interested in versions of his selves) and just seeing what it was like out there. He eventually settled not just into himself but into a new MV, where he lives to this day. He still has contact with some of the Freshes & Inks he met in past using the Doodlesphere Mirror (from Ink's canon) to chat! 

Bonus: Oh and this Fresh in particular always had some connection to divinity & creation as well. Always feeling drawn to it. Which definitely, not that he'd admit it, played a part in him 'befriending' Ink. Kind of wanting to uhhhhh study him? See what it was all about? Being as close as possible to a representation of the things he as 'supposed' to be / have?? Like he, a habit Creation keeps, always referred to his hosts as his vessels! Well. Creation can't change vessels seeing as he is fused together now but his memories of Fresh's previous ones are referred to as vessels alongside his current body.

[inanimate-reboots]

THIS TOOK WAY LONGER THAN I ANTICIPATED..... anyways sooo for this, i decided to focus on your arcs on this blog specifically 😁😁

Test Tube, you initially felt reluctant to connect to the others (mostly Fan, I presume) because you thought there was no genuine interest besides the fact that your previous selves all used to be a friend group, Fan and Lightbulb having shown to be clearly interested in reviving that dynamic of the Former Lights. However, there have been multiple instances of you quite obviously getting along with them, (even Fan!) despite the fact you're reluctant to admit it. So I assign you the songgg:

Carve a Name! Mother Mother is always a classic,,

This song is about rediscovering passion with someone who it had been previously lost. The singer even seems reluctant to admit it, using somewhat graphic imagery in the lyrics to make the situation sound more distasteful than it actually is. Despite this, they can't help but admit that, yes, that connection and closeness has, in fact, been revived, claiming "It feels the same as good old yesterday."

Fan, you want to relive the glory of the old Fan. You wanted to have the same friendships as him, the same experiences as him, hell, you even want a phone! Some may even say you know exactly what you want and what you wanna be...

THAT'S RIGHT! I assign to you Oh No! by MARINA!!

While this song is about the fear of failure and not being able to achieve your goals, for you, I'd say it focuses a bit more on a desperate, neverending battle of trying to reach that goal; that goal being your desire to be like the original Fan. You know how his story went and you want to have what he had, focusing on achieving that rather than being more willing to let there be a change, "TV taught me how to feel; Now real life has no appeal". Ironically enough, that sort of connects you to the original Fan even more, as he disliked change as well. Woah 🤯🤯

Lightbulb, I was definitely a bit conflicted while choosing yours but I finally came to choose a fitting song. Like Fan, you want to be like your old self. You try to fill the void that your existence has left you with. And because of that, I assign you:

Crack Baby by Mitski!!

This song is about being unsatisfied with your current situation and wanting to regain a feeling of happiness. For you, that means trying to be like the original Lightbulb by making the same friends and trying to behave similarly to her. And to add, there were implications that the old Lightbulb struggled with depression and/or a low self-esteem, but hid it extremely well behind her goofy character. You don't seem to hide behind the mask of a fake smile, but we can only assume you want to regain that bright aspect of the old Lightbulb, even if it was fake at times. As the song says, "you don't know what you want; But you know that you had it once; And you know that you want it back."

Paintbrush, you were surprisingly the trickiest! Reason being I don't quite know what your arc focuses on. Test Tube has no interest in reviving the old Lights dynamic, whereas Fan and Lightbulb do, for example, but I don't know about you. Not until I picked for specifics, that is. From your reference sheet that said "knows something?" iirc, to that (non canon? I don't remember,,) short comic of you tearing up over Fan and Lightbulb’s reenactment of that one moment in Mazed and Confused, to watching Lightbulb glitch out and die right before your very eyes all hint towards a fact that you carry a certain burden that the others don't. And because of that, I assign youuuu:

YEAHH WOOHOO! The Crane Wives!! Yay!!!!!! 😁😁😁

Miners used to take canaries into coal mines because, in the case of carbon monoxide poisoning within the mines, canaries would die to it first, which would allow for the miners to escape before they met the same fate. Paintbrush. You, my friend, are the canary. No, you're not gonna die from carbon monoxide poisoning, BUT!! You carry the burden of being a bit more connected to your old self than the others. Also, the line, "Please don't return me to the dark of all the memories", basically sells it for me.

OKAY THAT ITS THAT TOOK FOREVERR DBSBHSHSS

OUGH PEAK PEAK PEAK

Time to listen to all of these !!!

You analyzed ALL the reboot flying buddies pretty well BTW!!!!!! Excited to listen to all of these >:D !!!!!!

Love hearing music that isn't in my circle of common songs so ty ☆☆☆

[thr4shit]

HELP– wait, is Lordy wearing Bob's tank top in this scene???

WAS THE QUEERCODING WAS ACTUALLY FOR A REASON?

(by Queercoding, I'm referring to Lordy's overload of gender, more "femme" presentation on stage, etc. *it might not be queercoding... but I just immediately got 'not purely straight' vibes from him :'D I don't know how else to define that.*)

It's just?? Ghgjggghm??? Boyfriends???

* not to mention, since Glam and Ches share a room, that means Bob and Lordy are sharing the other room. As the band "split two rooms amongst the four of them." because of 'budget' <- the reason their manager gave. but that means they were sharing a room. And like?? They probably CHOSE those room situations. *

( Like... I personally shipped them before my brain processed this, and now it's just like: YESSSSSSS )

Honestly, have you NOT seen the way they look at each other??? *especially Lordy to Bob.*

(There's like... a tiny frame where Lordy looks to and smiles to Bob after the whole "I don't have anything against love songs" thing, not to mention these other instances):

Lots, and lots, and LOTS of eye contact or generally showing attention to where Bob is.

And usually accompanied by smiles or smirks.

(Not to mention they always seem to group up with each other.):

*obviously this is because Ches and Glam are usually together. But even in general, Lordy doesn't seem to like to be too far away from him. At least not for long periods of time.*

And also, Bob *sort of* checking on Lordy when he falls:

He only looks away when he sees Lordy get up:

Also, them navigating together (and both being annoyed by Ches):

Either way, even if they're not canonically dating, I love them. They will forever have boyfriend/husband energy to me.

I love them so much. I hope we see more of them eventually.

It's just, like–

My boys?? 🥹

(I love feeling like I'm projecting queerness. /j :'[ I just need to see them kiss. It would make me so much happier.)

(edit: GAHHH WAIT I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THEIR YOUNGER SELVES. THEY LITERALLY CONSTANTLY LOOK FOR THE OTHER'S GUIDANCE AND OPINION [i'm tired. please just put up with it at this point. i'll touch back on this later and fix it. i'm writing the beginning of thsi edit before I pass out.] *edit: i don't even know where i was going with this... i just like them. i'm not gonna try to understand what i was thinking about at like... 1 am when i started making that edit.* )

[ramen8008]

I don't know if most of you know this or not but I've been a marichat stan for 5+ years (around as long as I've been miraculous ladybug and Chat noir obsessed) so since I did a Ladynoir head canon post I want to do one for marichat. Because this was what kept me up at night at 12 years old reading fanfiction omg so much fanfiction (and writing some too but we don't talk about that).

I think just like Ladynoir I prefer an older more mature head canon with them.

They don't meet on purpose. Like they hardly ever meet on purpose especially as adults. Maybe they had a few of those nights on the balcony when they were 14-15 or one too many missions where they teamed up but as adults it's hardly ever on purpose.

That doesn't mean they aren't friends or that they don't meet. Every once in a while Marinette would be chased by a akuma and chat will save her. Within those dragged out a couple of minutes where he gets her somewhere save they chat, they insult each other, exchange funny stories, make jokes. And after the akuma he checks on her where he left her, hardly ever expecting her to be there but always finding her.

They have the kind of friendship which is just EASY. It's fun, there's no expectations, they never have to wonder whether they need to call the other or if it's weird the other hasn't reached out. It's mostly coincidence (that at times doesn't seem like it)

They don't talk about their feelings, they talk shit about people that piss them off, situations that make them wanna commit crimes, jokes around. Chat knows Marinette has more to her life than she tells him but it's okay because so does he.

They can tell each other things they don't think they can ever say out loud, not because they're their "true selves" but because who's going to hear the hopes and dreams that might never be accomplished? A boy who she doesn't even know the name of? A girl who'll probably never know who he is?

They don't imagine their life with each other in it, it's the kind of friendship you have with an exchange student in your school, a person just visiting town, they talk about their future but never imagine each other in it, because that'll break down the comfort they feel knowing that they have no major significant with another. (At least that's what they tell themselves)

It's always "I'll tell my friends I used to know the famous fashion designer before she was famous"

"I'll tell my kids I used to be friends with the great Chat noir"

And that's okay, it's what gives them the freedom to say whatever they think, say out loud the things they would never have anyways because that's the core of their friendship. It's not the kind where you plan hangouts, where you know each other's favorite colours, where you fear that saying something will affect your next conversation. Not one where you even know the others birthday, one where to get each other serious or any gifts at all

Sure Marinette gives him a sweater for winter patrol once only for him to find out that the back has a paragraph not so different to the "no protection, no lube..." comment when ladybug starts laughing uncontrollably.

They both have an addiction to murder podcasts. They plan the most precise murders in the middle of the night and switch to talking shit about murderers because they got caught.

They don't see each other as a life long friend but definitely one they don't plan to forget. They don't spend many nights together but the ones spend are all they will remember.

Their meeting aren't always the most convenient but they are also never boring. They don't have a normal friendship but that's also what's so special about their friendship. They might not know everything about one another or even close but they will be each other's murder alibi and that's what matters.

[princess-of-the-corner]

Was musing on the "Aware of Abuse" AU for the Sad Rich Kids Trio and ho it influences their behavior, or how their perspective has shifted, from least to most detailed:

Adrien: He is not overtly super different, in canon he was already expressing frustration with his father and ducking out from under his control to do what he wanted.

The main shift is rooted in his perspective. Namely that if his father does love him (Doubt) then his love is so toxic Adrien wants no part of it. He deems any concession Gabriel makes suspicious at best and deems any lingering affection on his own part as a childish thing he needs to outgrow.

Beyond that he's simply more blunt, he doesn't make excuses for his father and is a bit more aware of how the other kids parenting sucks. This ironically may actually make it harder for he & Marinette as she'd struggle to see what was wrong early on and presume him kind of a brat or rude for disrespecting his father so much.

Kagami: As one might expect given how heavily controlling and authoritive Tomoe is, Kagami has very little wiggle room to openly defy her or act differently without risking being trapped or extremely harsh punishment,

As a result the shift is more in subtle things and how she communicates and views the relationship. Namely, she does not love her mother and only pays lip service to respecting anything other than her material skills as a combatant. She also feels that given what her mother does to her is largely indistinguishable from hatred (The physical nature of sparring sessions & training are deeply unpleasant) that Tomoe's feelings don't matter.

Thus she's more overt around others in her disregard for her mother and already prone to trying to sneak off or undercut her. She has burner phones and secret social media accounts for example. In this regard she likely does not become Riposte.

Instead her emotions would be mostly fear of her mothers reaction & anger at the situation and what this costs her in general. Thus she likely turns into something intent on seeking her mother out and attacking her, or otherwise trying to force her mother into her shoes. I had a name for this I think, Aku-Gami? Anyway its basically a signal flare to Adrien & Chloe of "One of us! One of us! One of us!"

Chloe: Like with Adrien her shift would be fairly recent. Mostly in response to the clusterfuck handling of Adrien after Emilie's disappearance & her parents being their worst selves about it. She was on her last thread from keeping Adrien's head above water then being booted and so she explodes at her mother over the phone & rejects her father out of anything but necessity. After which she doubles down because she can't un-dig this hole but she can sure as fuck make it big enough to engulf them all.

Put simply, Chloe's ingrained "Fight" mentality has now been turned on her parents in full. She'd still struggle to articulate most of the things they did wrong, or why they were wrong. But she is angry, rebellious and good at lashing out so she does that and only concedes when she has no other choice or legitimately terrified.

Despite this her changes are less overt, her fight mentality is a survival mechanism like Adrien's people pleasing so she can't just turn it off. She's still been actively taught a lot of terrible things like its moral to cheat to win, & un-learning that is hard, especially if doing so makes you feel weak. & She's been mimicking Audrey since forever, that doesn't just go away over night.

At the same time though she has more freedom than the others & any overt issues she can identify she can try to address for good & ill. Her dad thinks she shouldn't hang around with people "beneath her station" Well screw that she's throwing a party in the ballroom for the class/school before the new school year starts & Adrien can come too.

This likely means she doesn't rip up Rose's letter cos that was like, peak Audrey. She might be tempted to do the social media thing with Kim cos that is something someone might do, but she'd also be more able to apologize for it. She may indeed still lock Juleka in the bathroom, unless they are like, actively friendly at this point.

A lot depends on how well her shifts in behavior are taken by the class as she's not gonna suddenly be super self aware or easy to get along with in many regards. Though given S1 still had Kim get a crush on her & Rose trust her with a letter, I tend to feel it makes more sense that not everyone had a bad impression of Chloe going into the year. So it'd vary.

Regardless, Chloe would be both the most extreme in shift, while keeping a lot of thorns. But she'd be more open to changing in general if able to contextualize a negative reaction as tied to something her parents would do, letting her aggressively reject it. If she feels 'she' was in the right though, she'd not shift her behavior at all but dig in deeper.

Fucking hell I do go on don't I?

Oh I love all of this though!!

[lollytea]

So... has the new info released more critters in the brain?

It feels like this show was bursting with passionate ideas and creativity from the early stages. It makes me appreciate the final product both for what it is and what it wanted to be, even if there's a lot of things that I'm critical of.

I found the pitch bible SO interesting, though I don't really have anything valuable to comment on. I can see changes that they made that were ultimately so much better (Like making King a child, the inclusion of Gus, Eda's beast curse) but I'm also intrigued by these scrapped ideas. After watching the pilot I was so fascinated by whatever is going on with Eda and the Emperor's Coven. Her jewel is a shock collar?? Hello???

I do like lumity quite a bit but I'm kinda a bit sad that they changed so much about the evolution of their relationship from the original pitch. I genuinely enjoy the setup and the way their lives intertwine. I have to clarify excessively that I don't dislike lumity but there were beats of their development that I found a bit unsatisfying. But judging from this pitch, they originally had a lot of foundation for the relationship. I don't have the words to explain it. I just wish I could have seen the version of lumity that was originally intended.

I kinda like the idea of Lilith as the headmistress of Hexside. Idk something about it just feels right to me. Maybe it's the fact that it more closely links the high school stuff to the main plot, rather than Hexside and the Owl House being like Luz's two separate worlds that only occasionally meet.

THOSE FUCKING HUMANS WHO WERE MUTATED BY LIVING ON THE BOILING ISLES FOR TOO LONG IS INSANE I KEEP THINKING ABOUT THEM. CRAZY WORLDBUILDING SHIT TO DROP

Oh. If you're talking about hunlow specifically, then I have barely anything really. Considering William is 13, I wonder if Paulina would have stayed 14, instead of aging up over the course of the series. So they'd still be around the same age.

Paulina doesn't get nearly as much info in her page as Luz, Amity and William so I don't imagine she was intended to be anything more than a quirky side character.

I don't really care about beta hunlow all that much. It's fun to think about occasionally but their Canon selves are tough to beat. And William is like. An angry infant in my mind, so I'm not prone to thinking of him in romantic situations

I've got this. Do with it as you will

[jess-the-vampire]

What will happen in your au version of for the future

there's some stuff i'm gonna touch on in comics in more detail but the rundown is after making it back, eda is gonna separate from the group with darius and eber to get king

she doesn't know how long she might be back in her normal form before the beast takes over and she refuses to let her son be in harm's way and never see him again.

Caleb wants to talk to her about the hunter and luz thing in more detail but she's not ready yet, so she leaves and tells him to keep an eye on the kids and find a safe place to protect them.

This includes luz, despite their reunion, she wants luz safe and away from collector.

A part of eda also wants to confront lilith too.

so the caleb gang do eventually get to hexside via survivors, and kikimora, instead of what happens in canon, is actually in charge of the group in a more honest way.

In fact she's trying to figure out a plan to stop collector and free philip.

She actually thought caleb and hunter might of also been captured by collector too, so she was trying to free her family and in the meantime she and steve have been helping survivors.

Basically she finally got the power position she wanted, but it's for good reasons.

so family reunion with her.

They're planning to stay and take shelter like eda asked but luz refuses for them to hide like this, she's tired of being underestimated by eda and thinks they should all go after the collector with kiki's plans.

She is worried sick eda won't make it.

Willow is feeling the pressure of her parents being captured and hunter is doing his best to reassure her and so is gus, who is talking to hunter about knowing his and luz's secret.

Amity however, finds out odalia is working with collector via intel from kiki and kiki's own inventions, collector who captured her dad and has left her siblings in the state they are and she is PISSED.

Both her and luz want to go up there and confront the people they believe to have hurt their family and they confront how they are both being projected onto and that to succeed they need to be their honest selves.

Which is perfect for them and their own confession.

but things are starting to shake up as whatever titan trappers are left get word of them arriving and start to break in to capture them. Leading to a very different fight in the detention pit.

Hunter does get his memory of EAE removed, deciding to do the plan and get into the head.

Hunter's palisman comes to life when he confronts caleb about how he wants nothing more then to stay in the demon realm, to study magic, make palisman, and live his best life there.

Caleb spent awhile considering if leaving earth was the worst mistake he ever made and it made hunter wonder the same, if nothing ever would of gotten so bad if he stayed like he was supposed to.

and this is a moment of caleb being honest and saying "No, you being here is everything to me, i got to live my best life here and so should you. You should get to be anything you want to be, and live as fully as you want. I may of made mistakes, but coming here was not one of them, and neither was having you as my kid".

Fully forgiving himself for the mistakes he made.

they get into the titan head after the fact.

As far as collector goes, Lilith and king have been conspiring against him, but neither want to hurt him. They want philip to join but he just.....sits there, depressed. They have bonded over the months but he refuses to do anything but let himself suffer.

The titan trappers let collector know the gang arrived, and that eda is coming for king and they're planning to end him. He doesn't assume king or lilith would agree to this, but then sees them reuinite with eda and that they are up for stopping him and assumes the worst of the situation.

i can get into more detail later

but that's a good summary of events till then

I have like very very specific feelings about Blade and Dan Heng’s dynamic/complicated situation and of course by extension the situation that occurred between Dan Feng and Yingxing and it’s like super particular, not in the way I think I’m objectively correct or fully indulging in fanon but a secret third thing. And the worst part is that I quite literally cannot for the life of me verbalize/write down my feelings and viewpoint to the full extent

They are just so complicated and full of so many tropes I love and it oof, it hurts very deeply. I like just reread the Passerby of Wandering Cloud relic set and I’m hmmm

I will say something as best as I can, I will never stop thinking about “Pairs of objects are destined for an eventual reunion.” In general that whole relic set wrecks me emotionally on a scale that I haven’t had since I read Stormbringer from BSD. They have such a complicated dynamic and I enjoy it so deeply, and see the thing is that they have such contradictory feelings that I don’t know the direction Hoyo will take it in but I am strapped in for the ride either way.

Also theres something like this fixation certain people have on separating the two and fixating on how they’re on their own paths AWAY from each other and I just,, I can’t understand that fixation because first off, even without talking about past selves, just talking about the current selves, the connection between them is extremely important when it comes to characterizing either of them. That is a significant part of their characters and where they currently are and a refusal to acknowledge that even without any shipper goggles confuses me. Additionally, as I brought up before, “Pairs of objects are destined for an eventual reunion” even as Blade and Dan Heng rather than Yingxing and Dan Feng, their paths are destined to cross. Given the earliness of the Xianzhou arc, heavily doubt this is any kind of “eventual reunion” as said by the relic seeing as its not like this is the first time they’ve met and those weren’t the this spoken of reunion. And additionally, I can’t help but think about Dan Heng specifically whether with knowing intent or not, carries multiple tokens of his past from the bracer itself to the jade pendant to literally Cloud Piercer. The weapon that makes him feel safe and yet he also has unfinished business with the creator

Speaking of that line, I’ve seen some people who think that he knows Blade made it. I personally heavily think he doesn’t know, given word choice to how he feels about it etc. But hmm I wonder if we’ll see what happens there. And that voiceline is just yet another thing hammering home how these two are destined to continue to have their paths intertwined.

And I’m trying to find the post again but I saw someone talking I think about the translations of the relic lore for that set and referring to the whole Pairs of objects line and they talked I think about how that statement is not meant to merely represent the actual objects but more so to represent Dan Heng and Blade themselves which may have been obvious from the start, but after reading that I felt like someone had expanded my mind and I can’t stop thinking about it, I can’t

Anyways anyways, I don’t think these two are by any means solely characterized by each other and they shouldn’t solely be seen as only existing in proximity to the other, but I don’t get people who for some reason hate the idea of them being connected in any manner bc of hating ships that they outright disregard and deny like key important parts of their canon. I mean people will do what they do and there’s no reason trying to put logic behind every single thing or whatever, but maybe that’s also just because I feel insane about their lore and again have this specific idea and view of them in my head. Maybe I’ll be able to put it into words better one day

Everything I ranted about arent even the full extent of my feelings about this particular topic regarding them. I just feel so specifically that I don’t know how to put it in words. If only sounds alone could convey my thoughts

Theres so much more I could rant about, so much more I could say but its like 4 am and I cant properly formulate thoughts without tangents starting in the middle of them

I ended up deciding to write this fanfic about Dean and Robby so now anyone who wants to read will have to stand my annoying butt being insufferable because I LOVE THEM and I’m obsessed 😭 so you can have some fun facts (let me pretend I’m famous here i’m just a dean girl) and then I will post some mini teasers about this one.

1. You don’t need to watch Cobra Kai to understand the story, but I highly recommend to know about supernatural (8 first seasons, at least). I will explain Robby’s character with what I know from the show and some personal insights, because if you have seen cobra kai then you will know how poorly they have treated Robby’s character 😭

2. Dean will be the best freaking dad EVER.

3. I feel like some things may look really out of character for Dean (him being fully affectionate, for example) but on the other hand I feel like that’s the point of it all. I want to show you all how a son could have changed Dean’s life and, mini spoiler, that’s the point of it all. I swear it will be explained and 100% justified.

4. This will be a what if kinda situation based on season 7-8 of supernatural.

5. The story’s name is “soulmates”.

6. I could make Robby straight, but my baby always gave me bi vibes.

7. THERE WILL BE DESTIEL OC they are canon to me and if they are not canon to you, respectfully, you are wrong 🥰

8. BUT they will have a very very very slow burn and I won’t promise to give the fluffiest corniest destiel you may be expecting. I will keep Dean very much in character in that topic and Castiel as well, I always imagined them…taking it step by step. Slow kisses, not constant physical affection, a comfortable silence between them and the prominent emotional comfort they gave each other. I always imagined them keeping it more to them selves, if I’m being honest. I promise not to disappoint.

9. My mother language is not English so I apologise beforehand for the stupid mistakes.

10. Dean will be the most over protective and dramatic dad ever, promise.

11. Sam is going to be the BEST uncle.

12. I still don’t know which characters I will chose to keep, because HELLO BOBBY AS A GRAND DAD? I want to make it realistic but I also want to be happy for once in this fandom.

13. Robby just loves Dean so much 😭

14. Dean is not fond of girls flirting with Robby, and he goes straight to grab his gun when a boy tries.

15. They will be the best duo ever (with Cas as dad 2 and uncle Sam oc)

16. There will be romantic relationships but Dean’s and Robby’s bond will be the main focus.

Why do you make porn of child characters?

As Homelander once said:

Just kidding! 😆💕 But jokes aside dear anon, assuming you're referring to my Kaeloo content I'd like to take this wonderful opportunity to give you a little bit of context about this show (and it's characters) and why it's ok for fans who consume this type of media to interpret it however they want!

-

The show "Kaeloo" is a category of media most commonly known as "meta cartoon" or "self-aware cartoon."

These cartoons are characterized by their tendency to acknowledge their own fictional nature, often addressing the audience directly and making references to the fact that they are part of a show, therefore breaking the fourth wall by talking to us!

-

This means that the characters in the show are aware that they are fictional, therefore they understand that they exist within a TV show and that their actions are being watched by an audience.

Within the show, the characters often organize games, challenges, or events specifically to entertain the younger viewers.These activities are part of the show's format and are designed specifically with the child audience's enjoyment in mind. (Not because they're actual kids who only play games just to kill time, but because playing games is LITERALLY their job (as Kaeloo mentioned too), in order to entertain US, the audience watching).

Most of the things the characters do within the show are a form of acting. They are playing parts or roles within the games and performances. This adds another layer of fiction, as the characters are acting within the context of the show itself. The primary goal of the characters' actions and the show's structure is to engage and entertain the viewers and this allows the show to be highly interactive and dynamic! Plus the characters' awareness makes for humorous and comedic situations (like Season 3 ep. 17 or Season 5 ep. 24)

-

The show also emphasizes the fact that the main four are often portrayed as older actors outside of the cartoon when they're not playing games or organizing entertainment for the kids during Meta Episodes. They also explain on behalf of the writers how it's hard for adults to be able to express themselves with darker topics while also managing to pass for a kids show to air on television, and that includes the stigma of animation still always being associated with children and not adults, and I believe Rémi himself wanted to express that struggle of expression through this cartoon.

However this topic really gives us a much more complex and interesting view on the characters' struggle too! We get to see Kaeloo and her friends trying to express their natural mature (and often explicit) selves while also struggling to keep their actions "kid friendly" in order to not traumatize or offend the children with their explicit undertones and mature language.

I see Kaeloo as an adult with a very responsible and mature approach with her awareness that kids might be watching them, and she often struggles with her fear that the adult topics they face and their actions may not be suitable for them, trying to ensure their safety all the time just like any other responsibile adult would!

But of course, if that isn't enough proof we also have a canon portrayal of what children REALLY look like in the show!

So long story short: No, I don't personally believe the main four are kids. Or at the very least, Kaeloo, Pretty, Mr.Chat, Olaf and Eugly definitely aren't.

But please anon, also keep in mind that this is just MY personal view and interpretation of the characters! Every fan is allowed to interpret them however they like most and there is NO right or wrong way to enjoy a piece of media or fiction! It's yours to enjoy! 🩷

Some fans are ok with picturing them as children that smoke, drink, make sexual innuendos and drive; but to me personally it feels more comfortable and logical to see them as adults!

(And on a side note, i truly appreciate the creativity and artistic talent that Rémi puts behind his work and the portrayal of each character. Being a nsfw artist himself, I really don't think he would mind knowing that every fan has a different and personal interpretation of his creations. He's a chill guy and hey, he has no problem drawing his characters in explicit/adult contexts, so why would it be wrong for some fans to agree with him? Adults are allowed to project too ahahah 🩷).

Hello, it's " Ask Game for Fun" BSD edition....

1.) Who are 3 characters from BSD that really describe you (despite you don't really like them, maybe)?

2.) Which character that you dislike but you just love their designs?

3.) Which character that you love but you just dislike their designs?

4.) If you must choose, which 'super power' that you want for yourself from BSD? Why?

5.) Do you have any personal favorite head canons from BSD?

6.) If BSD og characters switch place with BSD beast AU, do you think they can survive? Why?

7.) If you were asked who are in BSD that you can see based on canon that are gay/bi/pan/demi/ace/aro/etc which characters are they?

Thanks if you want to answer 🍀

wait, is this an actual thing, anon?!

1.) Who are 3 characters from BSD that really describe you (despite you don't really like them, maybe)?

This one's a bit hard, because I feel like on a more surface level I relate to Dazai. And I think that's why I gravitated to him as my favorite character. The apathy, struggling to fit in with others, mental health struggles, masking. When I first got into bsd I was in a pretty bad spot, but I'm actually in a really good place now, so I'd say I still relate to the fact he likes joking around with others. Also, Chuuya because the short people problems are real and I have a friend irl who completely dwarves me and makes fun of me for it. 🫠 I'm also more of a wine drinker myself and I like being stylish! And third, I think Louisa! Even though I have to be super bubbly and outgoing in my job, I'm still awkward and shy with meeting and talking to people. And I also can get easily flustered. She's also a fellow coffee lover.

2.) Which character that you dislike but you just love their designs?

Another hard one. I don't really have many characters I actually dislike in bsd. Pushkin is one of them, and Ace is another, and Professor N, but that's honestly about it? Everyone else I'm either neutral/have no strong feelings toward, or like. But I guess I'll go with Ace for a cool design but a character I don't really care for.

3.) Which character that you love but you just dislike their designs?

Dislike is a bit strong for me to use. Atsushi's hair took a while to grow on me. I know why he has that haircut, of course, but I found it oddly distracting specifically in the anime. I really love his BEAST design though, having the shorter, sharper fringe. I also think Chuuya looks a lot better without his hat.

4.) If you must choose, which 'super power' that you want for yourself from BSD? Why?

My initial response was to say Chuuya's ability, because his gravity can be used in a lot of situations that aren't combat-related, but I wouldn't also want the Corruption that comes with it, sooo. UH. Maybe Oda's or Nikolai's? I'd like to be able to predict if something was about to happen to me, like a freak accident, and be able to avoid it, but Nikolai's is also nifty for teleporting. Gee, now Poe's sounds fun but I'd feel bad trapping people in my stories because they're usually angsty.

5.) Do you have any personal favorite head canons from BSD?

Dazai being touch-starved and emotionally constipated.

Though Dazai used to complain about how spicy curry was, he grew to like it because of Oda.

When Chuuya's in a good mood, he likes to hum to himself or repeat a song that's stuck in his head.

Before Atsushi started making some money at the ADA, he raided the employee fridge for food in a pinch and got caught by Kunikida.

6.) If BSD og characters switch place with BSD beast AU, do you think they can survive? Why?

Most of them are already in BEAST and did just fine. I actually think their BEAST selves would be more prepared for Fyodor's machinations because it doesn't matter about Dazai switching, he still has premonition of the other world and knows what Fyodor's plans are well in advance before they've even been put into motion. BEAST bsd characters would likely have had a way better chance of defeating Fyodor sooner before he got to where he was now.

7.) If you were asked who are in BSD that you can see based on canon that are gay/bi/pan/demi/ace/aro/etc which characters are they?

I headcanon Sigma as aroace. I just see him as someone who wants to go to work, do what he has to do, and that's it. He doesn't seem very invested in others beyond anything platonically. I'd also probably put Ranpo in that category. Ranpo doesn't mind making friends, but I feel like that's all he sees others as.

I'm not going to touch on Dazai, because I think he's a bit of an odder case. And also because my theories about this are actually incredibly dark. But Dazai doesn't have any qualms about using his body to get what he wants, and he's shown that in the manga. That's more of a mafia thing, though, and part of his manipulation. Him not valuing himself even extends to his body: he doesn't see intimacy as something to connect with someone or bond over, it's just another tool. I don't know about natural attraction, but he'll force himself to act attracted to someone if it'll get him what he wants.

[bladesmercy]

1, 3, 5, 8 and 15 formation Sefikura please 🙏

Send me a ship and a number and I'll tell you

1. Which one is the better cook

Ooooh....i think this completely depends on what era we're talking about. in CC era, i think neither of them know how to cook outside of a microwave, or boiling water. by AC era....i think cloud wins, but the bar is in hell. given time to live a normal life, i think sephiroth has the capacity to become a much better cook than cloud, but it depends on if he actually has working human taste-buds anymore or not.

3. Which one outlives the other, and how they cope

well...canonically, cloud outlives sephiroth, and my personal headcanon is that he does cope, but only barely. he's already prone to dissociation and repression for other reasons, and i think as the years wore on alone....he would suffer those things more and more, eternally stuck with a hole in his chest that he refuses to name. from the opposite angle, i think sephiroth simply does not have a 'outliving cloud' part in his brain. it is not a concept he can accept. he will either drag cloud out of the lifestream himself, or he will engulf the cosmos in flame and himself along with it.

5. How many kids they'll have

my personal headcanon is that sephiroth is eternally caught between two warring thoughts. (A) that he wants as many offspring as possible with his and cloud's shared DNA no matter what he has to do to get them, and (B) that this thought is unpleasant, because cloud paying any attention to their children means that he'll have to pay less attention to sephiroth, and that simply won't do. XD if we're talking canonverse, i think cloud would flatout refuse to raise children with him, unless some kind of situation was forced onto him by fate or by sephiroth himself. i do think if they have biological children, they'd have to limit themselves to 1-2, because the world might not be able to handle too many individuals with their shared DNA. XD

8. What they argue about

for their AC selves, just about everything! i think arguing to them is a form of foreplay enrichment. but if they're both sane, i actually think the list of things they argue about becomes very small. about each other, like if they're working too hard, or silly things like if cereal counts as soup. they are of one mind on a lot of things, but they both enjoy feeling 'right' in an argument. verbal sparring is still sparring.

15. What they would change about each other

AC sephiroth would definitely tweak cloud to make him a bit more pliable and obedient, though i do have to wonder if he might later come to feel that decision was somewhat short-sighted. he does love stoking cloud's fire.... i think, upon being presented by this question, cloud would become overwhelmed about the sheer amount of things he would want to change, and boggle himself down in endless questions of whether he Actually wants to change sephiroth, or if what he really wants is to change himself and the history between them. i think he would ultimately chose to take the opportunity to make sephiroth several inches shorter, if forced to give an answer. (though...perhaps this is another choice he might come to regret.)

thank you so much for the ask!! <33

Affections

This was inspired after I saw a few panels of Iske being so sweet and seeming to be having a hard time holding himself back whenever he witnesses Ruby being her adorable self. It's not a fic, but more like word vomit. As per usual, this contains a few spoilers, and plenty use of the word 'wife' (I may or may not have some certain likings for that word. A little too much, maybe, its not even funny) so please read at your own risk.

---

Tw's: None. Just fluff and comfort.

Disclaimer: I do not own the characters or the story. This post is nothing but a fruit of my imaginations of how I'd picture him act towards Ruby based on my observation of him through canon (both novel and manhwa). Another thing I might add is that this post hasn't been edited yet so- LMAO. Enjoy!

---

I feel like Iske isn't one for PDA. Yes, he's quite the affectionate one. But I feel like he'd be more comfortable doing so in private. He's not really one who likes to show off to people, but that doesn't mean that he minds or even cares about what people think about him. If he wants to, or when he thinks that his wife is being much too adorable for him to bear, he'd just go for it. Be it a kiss on the forehead, on her hands, wrist, or temple. Heck, Andymion's canonically became their third wheel. And it's only because Ruby put a stop to it, so he did. I think there's even a high chance that Iske had already noticed first that they still had a company at the time but still chose to ignore it. I mean, c'mon, he's a knight. He probably has a high sense or something. There's no way someone as obvious as Andy (and his horse) even managed to escape his detection. And at the time, Iske had only looked a little pissed at him. Not because he was caught, of course, but because Andy had just ruined the atmosphere for them! And Andy wasn't even trying to hide his presence! So yes, I'd like to think that he just doesn't really care about others. It was either that, or because he was just too busy at the time to be focusing on kissing the daylights out of his wife to even care to pay attention to his surroundings.

After all, rather than wasting his time thinking about what others have to say to him, he'd much rather spend his time spoiling or paying attention to his wife, Ruby.

On formal occasions or situations where he really couldn't do whatever he wants or go wild (in case he'd get another stern reprimand from his father about decorum and propriety), all he'd do is place his hand on the small of her back, sometimes shoulder. Acting as if he were guiding her in a gentlemanly manner, and if he couldn't hold her hand, then he'd hide it by taking her arm to get it entwined with his. Acting as if he were merely escorting her. Ruby would often catch him on his scheme; but in the end, she'd just shake her head or giggle because, really, it wasn't like she was any better than her husband or anything anyway.

However! It's totally different when they're in the privacy of their own room. That, or if there's no one around to catch them being their lovey-dovey selves. Then no restraint needed! >&lt;

And because this is SFW only, I shall try to keep it PG-rated only, lmao. But anyways!

If they really got the privacy to themselves, then there'd be no hesitation for his touch. A hug would be given, a kiss (which often ended up turning as a full blown make out), and some caresses that would last longer compared to how he did in public. If it's in his office, then he'd either hug her while standing at first or move somewhere else to find something that Ruby could sit on. He's just attentive like that! Or if he happens to enjoy their hugs so much that he'd hate to break them apart just to let Ruby rest her legs, then he'd just sit her on his desk. Or the meeting table, really. He doesn't care. He'd let her sit there as he leans forward to either rest his head on top of her head or bury his face in between the junctions of her neck. It depends on how needy he currently is, really. Sometimes if he couldn't find anything for her to sit on, he'd just lift her up with his strong arms. Causing her to yelp before wrapping her arms to his neck for balance as he lets himself to rest his head to either her collarbone or chest, all while he still standing on his 2 feet, listening to her heartbeat and basking to the comfort of her warmth.

It's not really a fixed thing, but occasionally, if he finds himself to be much too touch starved, he'll simply go for the crook of her neck where he can feel her pulse and inhale the sweet scent that's wafting from her. All while keeping a tight grip on his hug before slowly loosening it down after he finally could gather his bearings. If it's just any other day when he needs a quick recharge of her, he'd just bring her to his arms as he placed his head on top of hers. All while enjoying the scent that was so uniquely hers before heading off somewhere to attend to his duties. Not before giving a few light pecks or a kiss after saying his goodbye, and see you later (possibly at dinner or in his bedchamber; it's theirs now; he had officially refused the notion of them sleeping separately, like ever, if he could help it).

I'd like to think that once they really have some time to themselves, he'll spend it all either relaxing or doing anything that Ruby wants. Be it just a casual walk together in the garden, reading some books, listening to her ramblings about her activities and recent shenanigans (sometimes cutting her words with few light teasing that would cause her to blush and gets flustered), going on dates, or just plain hanging out side-by-side in silence within their room! All while doing nothing but bask in each other's presence as he sits her sideways on top of his lap, leaning back on the huge couch rest as he lets her rests her head on his wide shoulder. One hand perched safely around her waist while the other is either playing, fiddling, or gently stroking on her much smaller hands, before he proceeds to lift his hand up to gently caressing her long strands of hair.

He'd listen to her calm breathing, stroking her arms, and giving light pats of comfort. Something that tends to make her end up feeling drowsy sometimes even makes her barely have the strength to keep her eyes open. Meanwhile, Iske would just stay there, watching in amusement as Ruby continues her futile effort to fight the sleepiness away. And eventually, if she does end up losing and falling asleep, he'd watch her there, perched on his lap, safely within his arms, as he lets his mind truly wander about the fact that he really gets to have this. Witnessing Ruby, his wife, who is currently at peace, free, and unbothered by the nightmares and trauma that used to haunt her in the past. He thinks about that, all while praying at the same time that he'd like for it to remain like that, always. Ruby being her happy and cheerful self while he stays in the back or her side, watching and supporting her in doing whatever she wants. And just before the drowsiness managed to finally get hold of himself too, he looks around to make sure the throw blanket has really done its job properly to cover his wife to avoid her catching a cold after waking from her light nap, Iske finally closes his eyes. Thinking right before he finally let sleep overtake his consciousness, that yes, he's finally at peace and happier than he's ever been.

Okay this is all I got for now, i guess. Do tell me if there's anything you'd like for me to do. I'm currently accepting request! Hehe, thank you for reading! Bye for now!^^
