THIS IS MY FAVORITE PANEL OF JAVIER EVER. IN THE ENTIRE MANHWA IM LOSING MY MIND HAHAHAHAHAHA

HE JUST LOOKS SO FUCKING UNHINGED I DIDNT EXPECT IT AT ALL HHAHAHAHAHAAAA

anywayy back to the top

honestly maybe i shouldve seen the fact that his own singing would fuck him up coming LMAO

their matching dazed expressions when they both realize PLEASSEE LOL

raphael also calls the start of his singing demonic sounding lmao

and then they start fighting again and JESUS holy shit they're so overpowered this is so cool to watch and also as i was reading i was VERY scared for javier

genuinely i really really love whenever they draw action scenes they look very cool while also not being terribly hard to follow i like that

like oh my god?? he's swinging that hammer around like its nothing its very very terrifying, esp cause its been a while since javier has fought something thats his match yknow, or at least it feels that way

the feigning being down and then the peek and the slow getting up im giggling so so bad AND THEN

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA JAVIER YOU CLEVER ASSHOLE I LOVE YOU SO FUCKING MUCH

like i knew that line raphael said about how the halo would continue protecting him so long as he's pure and just or whatever would come into play BUT I DIDNT THINK JAVIER WOULD BE THE ONE TO DO IT SO DIRECTLY TOO HAHAHAHAAA he's learned so much from lloyd <3 LOL

i also think its interesting that the halo keeps track of this with like points or smth, not much to say about it i just think its an interesting gear; the ultimate defensive tech but it's based on how "good" you are thats just really interesting to me hehe

ALSO ALSO i think it's really really silly funny that raphael was this very intimidating and menacing figure that was super scary right up until the moment javier played dirty and then the moment that happened that image/vibe immediately crumbled WAHHAHA he's just a silly guy and the halo does the work i like him a lot

i really like these panels of them being evenly matched, raphael is still holding his own even with a penalty like that, their expressions here are really good too its so tense,,,

AND THEN LLOYD BEGGING THEM TO STOPP AAHHH

AGHHGHGHHGHGH AAAHH JAVIER STARING WIDE-EYED AT LLOYD IM CURLING AND SHRIVELED ON THE FLOOR

like okay i know lloyd is scheming or whatever. but my heart wants to believe that some part of this was very real okay . let me cope let me believe this . one cannot act/lie effectively without some of it being real. RIGHT???

-

“Please princess, relax” Azul murmmered against your clit.

His hands wrapped around your legs forcing you to be spread eagle for him as he had began to press soft kisses to the inside of your thigh.

Tears only ran down your face as you shook; you tried your best to dissociate but you only were reminded of him when he'd massage the muscle between your legs.

“If you don't let me do this it's going to hurt you when we…” he only began to go back to experimenting tasting you down there.

The amount of stimulation you were receiving was painful. You only whined underneath him as the pressure in your lower belly began to build up.

“A-zul” you cried out as you felt your thighs trying to fight against the strong grip he had on your lower body.

He only began to concentrate running his lips over the taut muscle within you letting his teeth scrap the delicate bundle of nerves.

“It means your enjoying this (name)” Azul looked up at you with innocent clear ice hues.

The amount of preassure building in your abdomen was scaring you; it felt like you were going to burst when Azul would run his tongue over your entrance.

And when it did��

The moan that escaped your lips not realizing the disgusting display going on below where Azul was currently lapping up the translucent nectar that was trickling down your thighs and mound.

You felt utterly spent; but Azul only kept hovering his mouth around your delicate folds before finally moving away from your lower half.

He began to sit up, his shirt was off and now his boxers were the only type of cloth remaining between you and him.

You werent sure what he was going to do until he took his boxers off revealing his girth erect length to you.

It felt silly to think to yourself that his length was intimidating you just didnt know how itd fit inside of you.

Only he didnt put it inside of you yet.

He grabbed you by your hair folding you to be nose to tip with his erect length.

The smell of expensive musk and his natural scent was all you could smell as he hoovered your pressed quivering lips to him

“I made you feel good” he cooed as he let his other hand hover around your bunched up hair.

“Now I expect the same service from you” he smiled down to you as your cheek was brushing against his minimal pubic hair near his throbbing length.

“Besides ive been thinking about this since we met”

he pushed your face against his length before you finally realize what he wanted to do.

Lifting your bound hands you were about to place a shaky jittery hand to him until you felt him harshly push them away.

“Not with your hands” he demanded

Your pretty mouth

The fluster dotting your face was all you could do in response.

You looked towards the throbbing shaft in front of you, slightly twitching near the prominent vein under his tip.

Slowly you placed your top lift to his eagerly awaiting tip.

The smooth skin twitching against your lip.

“Oh you havent done this before have you?” He only snickered above you.

“Just do what feels right princess”

“As long as its you i'll always be able to preform” he patted the back of your head.

You wanted to retch but you were so close to his organ you didnt want to be punished any further.

The more you stall the more longer this will take after all.

You let your plump lip connect to his seedy head only kissing it as you tries to work up the courage to open your mouth fully.

Before you opened however a wicked thought occured to you.

Parting your lips you let your tounge roll over his tip earning a immediate spasm and moan from Azul as you tried to taste the salty milky organ.

you bared your teeth scrapping the tip of his erection.

A harsh slap on the back of your head caused you to gag still being affixed to him as he pulled harder on your head.

“Dont use your teeth bitch” 

“If you act up again I'll make sure you regret it” He smacked your vulnerable head once more.

Already stinging from the altercation from earlier only made the pain worst as you looked up at him with tear filled eyes.

He only looked down at you in judgment as you began to resume licking his tip.

letting your head occasionally bob up and down you began to dissociate focusing on the imense pain swelling on your cheek.

You just reminesced about before your time at the company.

When you felt appreciated.

Jade coming downstairs to talk besides you at your accesoried cubicle.

Talking about your favorite show with him.

Genuinely he’d listen to you bringing whatever he brought for lunch to share with you while you crunched numbers down.

So gentle.

Not like this.

You came back to reality when you felt yourself choking.

His hands holding your hair as he began to use your mouth.

A salty taste reminding you of warm milk was erupting in your mouth.

You were sputtering only looking up to plead with the lust over Azul eagerly fucking into your mouth.

Gurgling he finally releases you from his still hard erection as you felt the sticky and warm substance run down your chin and throat.

Swallow

You knew it was a demand.

You closed your eyes before you nosily gulped what he deposited into your mouth down the hatch.

The breakdown was beginning to be inevitable but you knew after this you'd be free.

He let you go before hurrying to get off the bed.

Your head swirling as you were trying to adjust to the freedom.

It seemed maybe you were done when he unbounded your ankles.

But the horror soon began when he picked you up by your bound hands to sit in his broad lap.

You were straddled over him your wet mound being rubbed by his erection lazily sitting against you.

His eyes oggling your plumb breast as he began to pay attention to the sensitve flesh.

You were breaking apart.

The feeling was too euphoric as he ran his lips around your areola.

“Your so perfect (name)”

His teeth were grazing your pebbled nipple.

“I bet you'd be a beautiful mother” he began to latch onto your breast.

You only gasped as he began to lick and pull on your sensitive breast.

It was wearing away at you.

Azul was about to take all of your virginities today.

You wanted to share it with someone special.

Someone who actually loves you.

After a few more teasing squeezes and licks on your nipples he moved away eagerly aligning himself down there to your leaking self.

“I can tell your ready” he cooed massaging your lower hip.

He lined himself teasing your clit with his precum drenched length.

“You'll feel so good I promise” he murmmered full of lust.

It was then when you felt him intrude inside you.

The wail that filled the room to your annoyance as he began to bully himself inside your tight walls.

His eyes only rolling back as you felt him reach further than you wanted.

Tears began to fill as he began to bottom out below you.

His hands giving a experimental squeeze on your hips and breasts as he began to only moan an inaudible pleasure slipping out of his mouth.

“Your doing well princess, you took me all in” he gasped as he began to thrust up into your plush walls.

The sinful smack that would be made from him connecting to you was all that you heard.

You didn't want to look down only looking up towards the ceiling above you.

The way he was deep inside you was worrying you feeling like your cervix was being bullied by his girthy self penetrating you.

Dissociating again took you to your favorite memory.

You had on your white and blue lace dress

Saving all of your small savings from college to afford anything from the luxury brand.

You did your hair in curls and wore a straw hat.

It didnt feel like anything would happen. You werent ugly but you didnt have peopoe falling over you as you described to your mother one time.

But the surprise when a tall man sat next to you at the conference.

“that color really suits you” he pointed to the cute croquette ribbon your tied on the sides of the dress.

You assumed he wasnt talking to you.

“My names Brett, Sugar horned devil” he smiled holding his hand out towards you.

So inviting.

He was handsome.

You both began to talk to each other learning he was the CEO.

Azuls rival

He bought your meal and even took you around town where you shared storied about how youd play softball in the corner of the park with your parents.

He seemed to genuinely care.

It was a shock for someone to listen and remember what you would say.

You had a bad day the previous day with Azul.

He forced you to come in and give him what was supposed to be Jades job.

Being ignored and snapped at was all you were dealing with that previous evening.

Just like today.

A sharp pinch to your stomach was what caused you to automatically react.

Azul was racking his nails behind your bare sides as he began to sloppily move inside of you.

The dread of knowing what he was planning to do to you.

“A-zul?” Your voice came out tinier than you anticipated as you called out to him.

He only lazily moved his head tounge lolling out of his head as he looked up at you.

His eyes keeping you under his crosshairs.

“Please pull out of me” you softly replied

“I dont want to be a mother”

especially with you.

He only began to thrust himself harder inside of you.

Azul's hips connecting with you causing you to bounce.

The pressure in your abdomen came back.

And so did the liquid.

His eyes only turned glazed as he tried to realign himself back inside.

“(Name)”

He began to wrap his arms around your hips as he began to thrust himself hardwr through your paltry walls.

“Please tell me you love me”

I need to hear it

He needs to hear it to be over.

You only gasped as he hit you deep inside you.

“Azul I love you” you gasped aloud only feeling your toes curled.

His hips stilled.

It was over.

But the warmth spreading inside of you;

You could feel him eventually soften inside you as he pulled himself out of you and the mix of fluids from your arousal and his dripped down your thighs eventually pooling on the crisp white sheets.

You both laid like that for…

Honestly you didnt care anymore.

Your thoughts slipped out of your head.

You think Azul was talking to you.

The disbelief of him using you like a…

Sex toy.

First he verbally abused you.

Next, he'd find a way to put his hands on you or slap you alone in the office for whatever reason

Then he started sabotaging your love life.

You had loved the CEO of mostro's inc rival company.

You began to talk almost daily while you were at work and eventually went out on a date.

And that's when Azul had to ruin it all.

He told you if he caught you talking to him again he'd do something he'd regret.

You told him it was none of his business who you loved and he was just jealous because no one wanted him.

That was when he hit you with a glass paperweight so hard you couldn't come into work for a couple of days. The jagged scar on your nose still visible even now.

In the morning you told the man you had to break up with him because it wasnt allowed at your company.

You still kept his number, you just couldn't meet him in public anymore.

Until recently someone found out and you were in the predicament you are in now.

-

Azul was your monster and you were just forced to play into its cruel game.

Azul had his fingers laced in between your bound ones.

“I'll get the shower started while you rest” he said, giving you a kiss on your head before lifting himself up.

“Oh before I forget,” Azul said.

He went behind you and you could distinctly hear sounds of rustling before the zip ties on your arms were cut.

Good.

“I'll be back,” he said, giving another kiss to your wounded cheek.

you could only see him from the corner of your eyes as he hummed a song.

He grabbed his discarded boxers rolling them on his legs.

“We are here for the whole weekend; maybe we can enjoy the sunset together after we wash up”

He began to walk towards the wooden bathroom, his footsteps echoing.

“I know how much you like being outside; I can even make Dinner” he chuckled to himself.

Step.

“Do you like steak? I think there might be some in the fridge I can make some of that with some sides”

You're done playing his game.

You could hear Azul in the bathroom turning the shower on and hear the accompanying steps as he paced around doing god knows what.

You slowly rise to sit up for the first time in a couple of hours.

You look down and can see your discarded clothes on the ground.

The broken stare was all you could muster at your clothes.

Instinctively picking them up before getting completely up and quietly approaching the door with a numbness.

“Sweet heart, where are you going?” Azuls voice echoed sweetly.

“I have my clothes in the other room, i'll be real quick I promise”

Azul peeked his head out from the bathroom with an unfitting serene expression on his face as he looked at you with admiration.

“Hopefully you hurry before all the warm water is gone” he joked before retreating back into the bathroom.

You unlocked the cursed door and walked to the bedside across the hall.

It felt like forever since you stepped into this room.

Carefully you dressed yourself back into your clothes that had been taken from you earlier.

Your “bag” still sat untouched where you'd dropped it before the assault.

Unzipping it carefully you grabbed the wooden striped baseball bat from your bag.

It had been yours for years but after not playing any longer you didn't have a use for it.

Until now.

Running on autopilot you slowly walked back into the master bedroom.

This is the last step of your plan.

WIBTA for inviting my cousin to an LGBT meet up?

Cw: mentions of suicide and transphobia

I (18M) am a trans man and my cousin N (21F) is a lesbian who is very masc presenting. We're the only queer cousins in the family (at least in our generation) so weve always been good friends and shes been one of the biggest supporters of my transition, defended me from bigoted family members and always corrected family when they used my deadname/old pronouns. I lowkey hoped she would come out as a trans man or nonbinary as well. We dress in the same style which makes it so when were hanging out together one of us is gonna get misgendered since people asume both of us are trans men or masc girls. When N is the one being misgendered she doesnt bother fighting it since its more trouble than its worth but looking back i think it really annoyed her.

Earlier this year N was severely struggling with her mental health. I apologize for the wording i may have since i dont know the proper terminology for this stuff or any specific disorder diagnosis she may have (other than autism). She was having some sort of manic or depressive episode. She was dead set on pushing people away and making them hate her so she could take her own life without regrets.

I visited N once to give her my support during a struggling time but i stupidly told her there was nothing she could say that would push me away. She told me not to test her but i kept pushing it and i admit what happened next was my fault. She told me in a very cold voice that she was a terf, though that she didnt want me dead but that "we" (im guessing she meant trans ppl) made it so much harder for her to exist(???????). I didnt let her keep talking just and left her room, said my goodbyes to her family and just cried while driving home.

Im still not sure if she meant it or if it was part of her mental episode and just a way for her to hurt me and push me away. On one hand ig it explains some of her behavior? N sometimes complained when she got asked for her pronouns or being misgendered like I mentioned before. On the other hand, I gen do not believe she has been a terf all along esp with how supportive shes been of me. If she was a terf youd think she would try to subtly talk me out of it, but that has never happened. My friends have nicknamed her schrodinger's terf lol

Anyway, i went no contact with N for a few months for my own wellbeing. During this time i heard that she tried to kill herself a few times, which got her into a mental hospital. She was given higher doses of meds and seems to be doing way better.

We had a family reunion this week and i decided to approach her. N seemed a little hesitant to talk to me but stayed polite. I tried testing her and talked about the effects T has been having on me but she acted like she always had and congratulated me and even complimented me on how deep my voice has gotten. I wasnt satisfied cause i wanted an apology for what she had said to me so i pushed it more. She did end up apologzing but it was a very surface level apology. At this point i didnt want to keep pushing in case it set her off again so i just took her apology (plus i wanted my best cousin back) and spent the rest of the day hanging out with her.

On the way home my mom said she was happy me and N had made up and that i should invite her to the lgbt club meetings Ive been going to this year. It seemed like a good idea to me, she lost a few friends during her episode and she could make more queer friends here. If N is trans and just in denial it could help her get the resources she needs to feel comfortable coning out. If N IS a terf maybe having more positive interactions with trans ppl could change her mind on it. Overall i thought it would be a win for her.

I brought it up to my friends and some of them blew up at me. Their argument was that itd be exposing the other trans ppl in the group to a terf and putting them in danger. I truly hadnt considered this angle so im kinda conflicted now. She had never felt like an unsafe person before and now that her episode is over she feels normal again. Even if she is a terf i dont think she could actually cause harm? I want N to get better but i dont want to put my trans friends at risk.

So tumblr, WIBTA for inviting N to my lgbt meet up?

What are these acronyms?

[dapperrokyuu]

Youll show concern for some people and say you hope they get better, and then theyll start telling you about how they "dont get" abortion.

Had some weird interactions today, but it is what it is, lol.

[fictionfixations]

since when was this a thing

book 7 spoilers

sorry if this is a dumb question but since when was it house?? azul literally says dorm leader and backgrounds are [name] dorm but.. HOUSE?? WHAT???? i dont know if theres a difference in the orientation from the prologue and the one in book 7 (outside of nothing happening like us lol) but.. ????? i dont remember reading house or is it house because its housewardens instead of something like dorm leader. …??????

if youre wondering why ive been rereading through book 7 its because im adding shit to the wiki (we only have 19 more chapters for book 7 not including the one im working on rn!! its almost fully added! i really want to add it all before we get more main story update this month! all battlemaps are done!! the only things thats missing is chapters 40 to 59 which is us in idia's dream if there's still more, to us in mickey's room(?), ortho being awake, to sebek's dream, and then being taken to lilia's dream. everything after that IS DONE YIPPEE) the only thing missing outside of that is battle and battle backgrounds. ive already beaten the tiles so i cant see the fight again so idk how many enemies theyre are so its just blank (idk what backgrounds they use either and there IS a difference between battle background and normal backgrounds). but to be fair i dont think anyone goes through the story on the wiki for battle stuff 💀

like look at this im so happy we're SO CLOSE also you cant see the last few chapters on the navbox so here

also might be wrong but i think the only times we've heard someones thoughts (outside of yuu in like options with the () ) is jamil and idia? jamil because he kinds of keeps quiet about thoughts he has except when he mutters it out loud idia makes sense though since we're in his dream

also maybe a little off topic BUT

i feel like itd be interesting if there was an AU where the dreams everyone had was like real. like an alternate universe except the person from that universe gets replaced (briefly) by the person from our universe where that doesnt happen like for example in idia's dream where ortho is alive and in RSA being an actual universe. and idia of our world where ortho is a robot ends up in the body of that idia with the alive ortho.

like i dont know maybe a LCF situation? I cant remember but like during the sealed god test(?) where cale was put in different peoples bodies. and he caused chaos. ..but i think that world was like an actual world and not some sort of dream or illusion? i think. like. with dodam? i forgor its just that. i. kind of want them to meet. like again.

like general lilia from a world where silver and sebek ACTUALLY were there trying to change stuff. and like maybe they actually could this time round? ive noticed that like for example when we're talking to maleanor and silver takes the hit for lilia and talks. and then they go back to talking like silver never interrupted so its going how it normally went in the past. but like. what if they didnt? what if they were actually more suspicious?? what if they said something about silver looking like the dawn knight? but like. like imagine that general lilia appearing in this world where that didnt happen? whether its from a time where silver and sebek already went into lilia's dream, or another time where they hdn't yet and being so confused on why they're still there even though clearly its been a long time ?

[a-court-of-moonlight-and-ire]

Some of you have probably noticed that I havent made a liveblog post in a while. Well, thats because I usually read on the bus and during my classes and then I come home and summarize my thoughts on the 2-5 chapters I read after theyve marinated in my head for a little while, but unfortunately i appear to be incapacited at the moment so I cant do that. But because its been weeks and I dont wanna forget anything and I would very much like to finish this series soon, I'll try to read at home sometimes from now on. Since my brain is still a lil mush Im gonna do what I did for my last post, which is write down what Im thinking as Im reading instead of summarizing all my thoughts retroactively, except this time I have my german copy on hand so if I want to quote something it'll be a translation

Anyway, with all that said, welcome to my twisted mind, please enjoy my thoughts on A Court of Mist and Fury Chapters 40

Chapter 40

Ive been wanting to say this for a while now but i kept forgetting, but they translated 'winnowing' as 'den Wind spalten' ['splitting the wind'] and that is objectively so much cooler, shoutout to my gal Alexandra Ernst for that

Feyre being like "ugh, its so pathetic how these human guards think they could stand a chance against even one of us" hurts me so much you guys what have they done to my girl

Once again, its apparently perfectly fine if Rhysand doesnt tell Feyre anything "because she never asked" but if Tamlin doesnt tell her anything when she never asked hes the devil

Also once again, Feyre is perfectly not-triggered at Mor wearing a scarlet dress

Idk how to explain this, but Rhysand saying that Feyre is wearing a golden crown because "she looks so good with it, how could he not give her one" is somehow the perfect encapsulation of the hollowness of her High Lady title

Oh, of course three of the queens only showed up to watch the other two talk, itd be too hard to write dialogue if they actually participated in this important conversation

hello???? Feyre referring to humans as "your kind" ??? wth is going on

"every side bears some blame" hey rhysand ive got a question for ya. which side enslaved the other again

everytime the oldest queen does anything the prose feels the need to remind me of how old and wrinkly she is and its like, i get it, shes OLD

The oldest queen is spitting so hard rn, Im not even gonna question how they heard of the night court when Feyre, who lived closest to Prythian for many years, didnt know anything aout the individual courts prior to getting there herself, Im just gonna put her whole little monologue here: "Oh? [...] The High Lord of the Night Court asks that we join him so that we can save lives together? Fight for peace? And what about the lives that you have taken during your long, despicable existance? What about the High Lord who shrouds himself in darkness and destroys the mind of those who stand in his way? [...] We have heard of you on the continent, Rhysand. We have heard of what the Court of Night is capable of, what you do to your enemies. Peace? I wouldn't have thought that you - a man who enslaves the minds of others and kills them out of pure enjoyment - even know that word."

Anyway, she was spitting absolute bars and Feyre gets super mad about it and almost commits arson but manages to reign herself in and its like girlie, why are you so upset? one of the first things we find out about the night court in this book is that they apparently indiscriminately kill (or atleast torture) anyone who crosses the night court border without permission like theyre the fucking us government, i think the bad reputation is justified

Forgive me if I sound callous, but I have absolutely no sympathy for Rhysand flinching at the mention of Amarantha when Feyre didnt even use her name and is also talking about how she fucking DIED AT HER HANDS

God, I feel like I have something to say about every single line this post is gonna be like 10 thousand words long by the time Im done

So lets take it from the top; Feyre tries to convince the mortal queens to give them the half of the book by recounting to them how much everyone suffered under Amarantha and how she was gruesomely beaten to death and then revived, which is not a compelling argument to me, who actually witnessed all of that, much less these queens who have barely any context for anything shes saying right now

The oldest queen is like "you dont know anything about anything" which is true what the fuck does Feyre know about whats going on in the human world or even the fae world at large, and then Rhysand growls "dont you dare talk down to her!!" because shes passionate and speaking from the heart or whatever and its like, okay, shes still not good at politicking or even just basic negatioation and shes talking to a seasoned politician who old as fuck

Like, if Feyre was actually smart, she wouldve long since realized that she couldnt convince these queens to protect this little slip of land right up to prythians border and been like "okay, you dont wanna protect the land, but can you atleast organize an evacuation so you can atleast save the people" Sure, they definitely still wouldnt have agreed to that because its a sjm book and theyre written to be comically evil, but it would atleast demonstrate Feyre being a little savvy, because right now all we're getting is her being stupid and stubborn in a situation where she really cant afford that

god, im just now noticing how pissed off I am, its been bleeding into my commentary and its not gonna stop, Im sorry. wait no, if youre reading this youre probably looking for negativity, so youre welcome, actually

Anyway, Rhys also says that Feyre is a kindhearted soul looking out for people who cant defend themselves even though she definitely thought that those human guards were pathetic for wanting to defend themselves when she and the other fae were soooooo much more powerful and he definitely knows that because the mental bond is fully open during this meeting and he chastises the queens for being selfish and cowardly when its like, my brother in christ you are doing the exact same bullshit, but atleast the queens are defending a wholeass continent while hes defending one (1) city. and iirc that city ends up getting attacked and destroyed anyway so good job my guy

Theres something so oddly biblical about the story Mor is telling about Miriam, down to her name being Miriam

That island thats removed from time is such bullshit istg

Is it just me or have these bozos not actually explained what they even need the other half of the book for. theyre just like "we need to stop this war and we'd like peace between humans and fae" and its like cool, hows the book gonna help with that though

im sorry, feyre wants to punch that old woman in the face????

the chapter ends with Elain being like "I hope they burn in hell" and i get that, they just straight up said that they want to abandon a whole bunch of people (them included) to die if a war breaks out, but you cant say that the night court girlies are not also at fault for being so fucking bad at politics

“Okay. We need to talk” Steve had a stern look on his face as he spoke to the girl in front of him.

“Do we though?” Not only was she making him nervous, but she was making the task impossibly difficult for him.

“Yes. I want to start with saying im so-“

“Youre sorry? Really Harrington, thats bullshit you just want to get in my pants” She said, oh so obviously holding back a laugh.

“Robin i swear to god.” Okay, In his defense, Robin did basically force him to participate in this practice argument with him.

“What? You we’re kind of a slut last time you saw her.” Ouch.. he thought. But it was true. Steve most definitely had not been known for his great reputation at ‘boyfriend’.

He was going to suggest that they try again, but before he could speak there was a slight tap on her window before Margo came tumbling into the room.

“BIRDIE! And Steve,” She glared over at him, “I think i left my drumsticks here yesterday, have you seen them? We kind of have a gig at Tommy Hagens pool party and the drummer just might need her drumsticks. Itd be kind of hard to back up Y/ns vocals if i didnt have them, I mean shes really good and has great projection, but she needs something to-“ If it wasnt obvious, Margo and Robin have the same rambling habit.

“Desk, ill be ready in a few. You going to Hagens party too Steven?” Robin asked, hopping off of her bed to help the latter in her search. She knew of Steves history of the boy, but she also knew that he wanted to be financially stable when he was older; and Steves father had made it pretty clear that if Steve cut off his connections, hed be left in the dust for real this time.

“Stop ‘full naming’ me asshole. But yeah I kinda have to. Didnt know you guys had a gig there, though .”

“Must’ve slipped my mind.,” Margo shrugged, but her and Robin gave each other a look that low key freaked Steve out, “Just hurry and go get ready and uh remember what we talked about. Thank you for m’ sticks Birdie, Im out.” Margo kissed Robin on the cheek, and crawled back out of the window less than elegantly. Who was going to tell her Robins parents were out on a couples retreat this week, and that there was no need to crawl out of the window? Not him thats for sure- No fucking way willingly hed sit through another five minutes of their sickening cuteness.

“You should go now too Dingus, party remember? Go get dressed, pick me up in an hour. Well go, have fun, get drunk, talk to Y/n/n. You know like in the good old days” She smiled, like she was up to something, pushing him out of the room slightly.

“The good old days? Really?” Steve was mildly unamused, but left the house all the same. Maybe getting a drink or two in him wouldnt be all that bad, Tommys parties were usually unorganized and chaotic, so he might not even run into Y/n. You know, when shes not on the big ass stage he knows Tommy rented, “just for her.”

———————————————————————

“Margs have you seen my glasses?” You called down from the stage, while Margo maneuvered herself around the few people that arrived early, in search of a beer, or like a caprisun or something. She had range.

“Gave em to Ajax” She yelled, still searching. Before you could turn around and look for the bassist, the glasses flew at you like a paper airplane. You were just barely able to catch them.

“Told you i could throw them up there, you immature ass.” Ajax muttered to Jonathan.

“I wasnt doubting you, dickwad. It was a statement.” Jonathan seemed to enjoy going to the parties where there would be a band playing, especially yours. Anyone else would think he just goes to get a glimpse up your skirt, but to anyone that knew him, it was clear he wanted practice for his future job of photographing rock bands. It was a diverse group of people you hung out with, really.

“Hey Henderson!” You looked up to see Tommy Hagen, the one throwing this party, waving at you from atop the diving board. Once you two made eye contact, he tried- really tried- to impress you with a jump. And it wouldve worked, if when he was about to jump in, a football didnt hit him in the ribs.

“OH SHIT-“ You exclaimed through a laugh, still glad to see that Tommy was able to resurface without needing CPR from Jason Carver.

“Oops-“ Ajax mumbled, as he and Jonathan slinked away together, laughing under their breaths. You shook your head in amusement, before placing the glasses on your head, and bending down to finish setting up the amps.

In no way were you into Tommy Hagen. He was an asshole, and it was pretty obvious that he thought of you as an accomplishment to add to his mental trophy case. Though, itd been a while since someone tried to impress you like that. Not who I wanted to have jumped into a 8 foot pool for me today. You thought, nearly laughing out loud at your own thoughts. HAH, scratch that. I bet he doesnt even remember we dated.

————————————————————————

“We’re late because of you, i hope you know that” Steve mumbled at the girl who was currently holding onto his arm for dear life. Robin enjoyed coming to these things sure, but she needed someone to hold onto in these crowds.

“Its not my fault, I swear. It was in my little green notebook except i think i left it in my overalls at my dad’s house, but the overalls were in my closet at my moms house so i was really really confused and then you came and i didn’t- HEY MARGO! Later Dingus.” Robins rant this time was about how they were thirty minutes late because she couldnt find the paper she wrote Margos favorite color down on. Sickening cuteness, he thought to himself.

Steve looked over at the stage that had been set up in the Hagens massive backyard, to see Ajax up there tuning his bass guitar, and Margo was off somewhere with Robin, but he couldnt see you anywhere. You know, until he did.

You were off by the punch bowl, looking slightly uncomfortable, in the way that nobody but someone whos memorized the way you smile when youre happy would notice. With Tommy Hagen.

—————————————

“Oh yeah, I mean, I leave sometime next week, so i dont think ill be able to make it.” You murmured, slightly annoyed that he wasnt getting the hint. Or that he didnt want to.

“Oh well thats alright princess,” you winced slightly at the nickname, “We can move it to tomorrow if youre free.” He smiled widely, raising his eyebrows as he waited for your response. Before you could turn him down, he spoke again. “Well look who showed, Steve Harrington, everybody. Did you know he was gonna be here princess? I didnt think hed actually show, you know hes kind of a wuss.” Tommy spoke loudly as Steve approached him, in an attempt to draw a crowd. One that worked.

“Oh come on, Tommy knock it off.” You said, trying to dissipate the situation before anyone did anything stupid. Steve and Tommy didnt have the greatest track record when it came to these things.

“Shut it, Hagen. Youre making her uncomfortable, knock it the hell off.” Steve said sternly, stopping a few feet from Tommy.

“Oh and you would know? I mean you guys dated for what a few months, before you dropped her for little miss perfect. Come on man you barely even know the girl, let alone what makes her uncomfortable. Hell i bet you dont even know what makes her comfortable, you know what really riles her up. Do ya Harr-“

Oh my fucking god.

“STOP GUYS STOP WHAT THE HELL- STEVE GET OFF OF HIM WHAT THE FUCK” You were yelling before you could even process what was going on. Steve was beating the absolute shit out of Tommy.

“DINGUS GET OFF OF HIM JESUS CHRIST” Now Robin was joined in on your yelling, along with the majority of the partygoers chanting ‘Fight Fight Fight’ or the occasional ‘Beat his ass Tommy’ and ‘Fuck him up Harrington.’

What the hell did he think he was trying to accomplish here

It wasnt long before the fight was broken up, Steve winning by a long shot, though he was definitely fucked up. You couldnt help the pang of pride you felt for him in your chest though, because according to Dustin filling you in on everything you missed upside down wise, this was the first fight hes won against a human since Starcourt.

It was still a pain in the ass to drag him to your car.

————————————-

Steve woke up to the soft sound of strumming in the next room over. He wasnt really sure of what the hell was going on, until he tried to stand up, and was hit with a horrible pounding in his head, and suddenly all his wounds felt fresh again. Though, technically they were still fresh . It had only been forty five minutes.

He kept a hand on his head, because he felt it was the only thing keeping him from passing out, and padded his way out of his room and into the guest room.

There, he found you singing.

‘You adored me before, oh my good looking boy.’ You sung, softly strumming, while still blissfully unaware Steve had woken up.

You were still wearing the makeup from earlier, purples and navy blues covering your face, to match the bands theme. Your hair was still styled like how it was in the video from the other day. You looked beautiful. Even if you were so clearly stressed out by Steves actions.

‘The skyline falls as I try to make sense of it AGH-“ Now you were aware of his presence. Steve winced at the loud noise, and you apologized quietly, placing your guitar on the guest bed.

“Did i wake you up?” You asked looking up at him as he stood against the door frame, still cradling his head with one hand.

“No, no, you didnt. Woke up on m’ own” He mumbled.

“Good. Now i get to me mad. What the hell were you thinking earlier Steve. That was fucking stupid, Tommy couldve gotten seriously injured, and so could you.” You scolded, grabbing his wrist harshly and dragged him to the bathroom.

“He was being a dick, he deserved it.” He said, as you pushed him against the counter until he got the hint to sit down.

“Move your legs really quick… And youve been a total dick recently, I havent beat the shit out of you.” You reached under the sink for the first aid kit, before standing back up and placing it on the counter next to Steves thigh.

“What do you mean Ive been a dick?” His eyebrows scrunched together when you started laughing. Because of course hed been a dick. Itd been four years, and he was still ignoring you like a twelve year old.

“Okay, okay, that was my bad. I have been a dick.”

“Clearly.” You smiled sweetly at him, before using the towel youd wet as you spoke to wipe the dry blood off of his face.

“Can I ask you something, Steve?”

“Yeah. Go ahead” He was thinking you were just going to ask what he was thinking when he hit Tommy, or something along those lines. Definitely not,

“Why did you break up with me?” He looked at you, straight into your eyes. He could tell, just by looking at you, that you were just curious. No tears, no annoyance, just pure curiosity.

“Honestly?,” You nodded slowly, “I couldnt deal. I mean I wasn’t exactly boyfriend of the century back then. You made me feel.. Light? In a way. Like I didnt have to worry about graduating, or getting a shitty job working for my dad, hell or even what people thought about me. I mean, my girlfriend was going to be a rockstar, “He smiled at you, “But i couldnt go through with it. None of it. I guess I was scared, and Nancy was the safest option, you know? Little miss perfect, is that was Tommy said? Yeah thats what I thought back then too. Its stupid i know, but it was safe.” Steve was looking at you, and the small smile on your face, and he couldnt help but laugh a little. “What-“ He laughed a little more, causing you to join in.

“Wait can i- sorry- Can i clean your cuts first? So you dont double hate me after this?” You said through a fit of laughter, reaching for the first aid kit again.

“Yeah, yeah go ahead.” He said, calming down a little in anticipation for the pain.

“Sorry sorry sorry-“ You said as he hissed in pain, eyes closed, with his head leaning into your hand.

“Its all good. ‘S all goodd” He said, looking up at you once more.

“Anyway. I was laughing because youre a total fucking idiot, Steve Harrington. I mean you just beat up Tommy Hagen at his own party, halfway through one of my gigs. Youre still best friends with my little brother, despite avoiding me for the last four years, and youve yet to try and embarrass me for writing songs about you. Youve changed Steve. Its freaky, if im being honest”

“You write songs about me?” He asked. Robin had told him that youd done it before, but he always just assumed they were old songs. From before.

“.. You didnt know?” Now your once curious, calm features, were nothing but pure panic.

“No?? I thought maybe youd met someone in LA, you know?”

“And it doesnt bother you? Like at all”

“I mean i kinda wish you told me, then i couldve asked this three years ago,” He chuckled lowly, grabbing the wrist of the hand that was holding his face lightly, “Can i, uh, could i ki-“ Before he could finish, he was cut off by your lips pressing against his. It tasted like your chapstick, strawberry flavored just as he remembered, and the punch from earlier, still tinged with a but of alcohol. You pulled away for air after a few moments, and the shocked look on Steves face kinda freaked you out.

“Sorry- Shouldnt have cut you off. Thats like, thats my ba-“ This time he cut you off, cupping your cheeks and lightly pulling you toward him.

“Dont be sorry. I should be sorry, I was going to start with sorry, but Robin said it would sound insincere or whatever” He murmured against your lips, causing you to laugh a little.

“I mean you were the one who suggested we kiss- Come on Steve, be better” You scolded mockingly.

“Yeah, yeah. But uh maybe we should tell her and Margo to stop, like plotting either our demise or our like borderline reconciliation-“ He laughed a bit, because it was so, so obvious that was their main goal in life then.

“Borderline? You are really bad at this, Harrington.” You laughed some more, placing a light kiss to his nose.

“Oh shut up, I know you missed me” He said, wrapping his arms around your waist.

“Definitely”

ok ive finished puyo chronicle. dont play puyo chronicle. if you want to see puyo chronicle just watch the precise museum video uploads of it and ignore the fact they dont have eyebrows because its in citra. im gonna talk about puyo chronicle now.

absolutely miserable slog of a video game. every single open area is nearly completely empty and full of dead ends. every chest is full of lame rewards that i almost never got use out of and i eventually just stopped opening them so i wouldnt have to fight mimics anymore. you dont want to explore anything because there's hardly any reward for it and your movement speed is so slow there's even less of an incentive to go out of your way to trek to a random corner of the map for 200 coins that you wont use.

the final gauntlet, which is a 15-story tower, comprises of like, three stories where something happens and the rest are completely empty and only occupied by common enemies, which by then you will be tired of fighting and actively be avoiding encountering. the devs made a bunch of maps and said thats enough game design for today<3

and then, at the end of it, you fight a final boss that had literally nothing to do with anything else up until that point. rafisol really had the potential to be an extremely cool antagonist if she had been involved in the plot from the getgo but instead she shows up having not at all been foreshadowed prior, you do the same lame fighting style youve been doing for almost every encounter up until that point, and the only saving grace of it is a really cool battle theme. its pretty bad presentation to just watch this supposedly UBER powerful absorption themed final boss just float there menacingly and occasionally throw a line of nuisance puyo at you. rafisol has a lot of cool animations, i dont know why you'd rob her of the chance to show them off in a dramatic way!!!! aaah!!!! its all really disappointing because she's the only female final boss character besides doppelganger arle and shes stuck attached to this soggy sad nothing burger of a video game. i want my evil women INVOLVED sega

puyo characters have never been the most complicated to figure out but they are NOTICEABLY flatter and more annoying. you can see it the most on sig and ragnus who refuse to talk about literally anything other than "bug!" or "im the hero from videogame world!" respectively. the plot spends all its time being completely aimless other than the vague idea of "if we find these stone pedestals, something will happen questionmark???" up until ally randomly starts getting sick when rafisol starts ready to hatch from her evil egg or whatever. the plot's idea is that satan modified this story because he wanted to go on an adventure with arle. and well chroni writers i have to say you guys arent really doing a good job of conveying that when the only places you see satan are at the very beginning and very end of the game.

hey speaking of characters hanging out with arle. theres. too many. of them. i think they were just trying to make the whole skill battle team thing make sense in universe but i think itd be a lot easier to just focus on like. the A trio and Ally and you only hang out with the other characters in the areas they're actually relevant. and they just go "well arle ill be there to help you if you need me!" but they dont physically come with you and then we just pretend that makes sense.

anyway despite it all i still like ally and i still like rafisol despite both of them having terrible haircuts god bless but i wish they were in a video game that didnt suck absolute egg!!!!!!! like i said earlier rafisol couldve been extremely cool if she was involved early on and wasnt just some unrelated problem girl. ive been playing around with a few re-write(ish??) ideas that ive been sharing with my friends to keep my sanity while trudging through this videogame and i might share some of those some other time.

until then please look at this picture again. my favorite part about this game is when accord holds popoi like this. every time popoi was on screen i briefly forgot how much not fun i was having

27, 28, and 29 for Cyrus (and maybe Caine if you want to answer for both :])?

OOOOO THESE ARE TASTYY. thank you for the ask!

27. What causes them to feel dread?  

oh man. its been a long, long time since cyrus has felt real dread. anything that makes him uneasy he covers up with anger. the last time hes felt dread it was when he woke up directly after heartbreak and realized where he was. i think the most direct thing thatd cause it currently is realizing argentine is awake. broadly though? itd be a situation that he cant solve. something that he cant think, talk, or run his way out of. if hes truly, entirely stuck? thats a reminder of the worst experiences of his life, and that feeling will hit him like a truck. technically not part of the question, but i wanted to add– he becomes a very different person when this happened. once the initial restlessness wears off he just. gives up. stops and counts the seconds till his doom. ortegas only ever seen him like that once before, during the psychopather incident– when cyrus realized what was happening, he closed his eyes, looking almost peaceful. it was extremely unnerving.

28. Would they prefer a lie over an unpleasant truth?  

cyrus has seen a lot of unpleasant truths in his lifetime, and hed prefer it if people didnt add more on his plate. that said, if he finds out you lied to him youll either get socked or meticulously verbally taken apart (cough chen if he ever told cyrus abt the pictures cough). telling the truth is the most important thing to him in any relationship. lying to him tells him that you think he cant handle the truth (bad idea) and/or that you dont trust him (worse idea). Yes hes being a massive hypocrite about this and he knows it– he wouldnt extend the same courtesy to another if he thinks its safer for them– but welp. thats cyrus in a nutshell so whats new ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

29. Do they usually live up to their own ideals? 

my perfectionist little son?? the guy that thinks suicidal thoughts when things dont go his way??? that precious guy?? of course he does. how else could you imagine his whole deal going./s but. yeah cyrus' ideals are impossible to achieve, at least by his standards. his goals tend to go fine, but his ideals are often wafty and they dont really have a set point where he goes "yeah ive done it". back in his sidestep days he fought for justice and to help as many people as possible. it hit pretty hard on him when he couldnt, and he always saw himself as a 'lesser' hero for it. currently, his ideals consist more of 'burn the whole thing to the ground and revel in peoples fear'. except hes not really doing that right either, considering,,,, *gestures to him saving civilians on instinct in the blaze fight and going soft for his loved ones*. of course that makes him more determined to live up to them anyway, because he lives to prove people wrong. somebody save this idiot from himself.

questions from here!

[1tsjusty0u]

hiii hihi hiii hello this is raurus disembodied right arm speaking

havent responded to the big reblog chain yet. but that headcanon idea sounded neat...uh uh uh uh. idk if you would like to do some champion headcanons but :]

HI!!!!!! thumbs up take ur time always!!! AND SURE :D

i’ll start with urbosa as she was the one i was think abt currently- i like to think she has stuff both from the queen and zelda: like dishes/cutlery + jewelry from the queen and wall mounts with dried and pressed flowers in them + guardian parts and tools. as such i think she hordes but pretends she doesnt. she has molduking parts/guts and has it as a trophy! i would say she’d keep the weapons as trophies from the molduking but 1. she’d have access to better weapons than those and 2. those weapons likely came from travelers who either died or killed the thing, so itd be like shes reveling in someones death if she took the weapons (looking away from the vah naboris war crime incident.) she’d teach mipha how to make creamy hearty soup + it was probably a dish she and the queen shared a lot (especially if she died due to illness!), i think she’d have a garden (partly due to zelda and partly for resources, either flowers for gods/departed loved ones or stuff like food and such.) or like. 1 potted plant., she had Problems with the shield surfing trial and was frustrated about it, possibly dances for fun + has books on different styles of dance from other races or regions, also because of the flower thing i think she prays to farore the most

mipha!! i think she’d be mildly scared of urbosa (mainly due to thhe electricity thing), SHES JACKED. one of her trials has her defeat flying guardians and trying to do waterblight with her weapons is decently hard. so i like to think combat wise shes horrifying, possible a prankster (especially when younger!), lots of opal and topaz jewlery but enjoys . i. i would say rose quartz but im remembering a certain Something, i feel like revali and her would be like siblings without sibling baggage. like theres definitely a mutual friendship but also Violence depending on how you look at it. they will team up however mipha will also cause psychological torment. i think she’d like to use the small zora sword from time to time and practices either with urbosa , revali, or link with it!, collects fish scales :], possibly knows a bit of armor terminology? king dorephan used to have an armour shop but it was removed (this is said in botw by the lady who gives us the trousers). i like to think she’d like to sit at shatterback point. at night either for the stars the glowing domain or naydra if she could see em

revali!!! he keeps a part dinraals horn as a trophy from his trials, possibly under an adult? its a popular hc due to his cheeks which is common for kid rito however kass Also has it! either way though its a neat idea, when you fight windblight having his gear he actually has a feathered edge sword which i like to think means revali ALSO TRAINED AT SWORD FIGHTING. he didnt have the time because he kept practicing archery but he either A. genuinely wanted to fight link and wanted to even the playing field or B wanted to one up link. or C. he decided to pick it up just in case either due to an Incident or to cover his bases. he likes bomb arrows A Lot and also quick draw bows!!!, it’s debatable whether hes good with kids but he Does care for them as he opened up the flight range for them once i believe, i like to think he likes fish pie, guy is absolutely broke compared to the champions, on one hand itd be Cool if he knew about one of the hebra hotsprings however i dont think he’d venture that far out Or take care of himself unless it was Bad bad (theres no honor in suffering!)

daruk!! this one i dont have a lot on,,,,, i think he’d be smarter than he portrays himself (especially with the standing on lava trial) + still try to lighten to mood, i’d like to think he’d try to draw from time to time!, would get embarrassed if people knew he drew from time to time, respects the idea of the dead souls being in luminous stones and does Not eat them, has not pranked anyone yet but he Gladly would. in secret of course, i like to think he’d throw/punt link like how susie throws kris at enemies. he also does this for revali before he can use his gale sometimes, he can skip rocks in lava and is pretty good at that ‘throw the pouch in a wooden board with a hole’ game

[joshriku]

Hi!!! I just read how do you sleep at night, your WandaJericho fic, and I'm having so many feels right now!!! Wanda's decision to getting a break from her relationship with Jericho made me like, oh wanda!

Her getting constantly anxious that nothing big is happening after their semi breakup was so sad. Girl is having grief in her romantic and maternal life since Vision's disassembling. It happens in reality too, when you are having constant drama and trauma in your life, you can't just suddenly adapt to peace. And you just start creating the drama and the unstable ness, whether you want it or not. Self Sabotage, or craving drama, you name it.

But the consequences that come with it—what always happens when she loves too much, the things that get ruined, the life she tries so hard to keep under control—it’s all so paralyzing. It’s as paralyzing as this touch. Oh dear!

And Jericho was so supportive! He was extremely right to be hurt, but I think he must have gotten an inkling later(maybe pietro?) about why is she behaving like that. I loved their Astral plane conversations, and "simply souls waving each other hello." This is so good!!

Also pietro!!! I loved how he just knew why Wanda is behaving like this. Self Sabotage indeed. The twin sense must have gotten activated. He is actually more emotionally intelligent about people he loves and cares, so that wasn't a surprise when he knew what wanda didn't want to admit yet. Also I knew it when he said he likes Jericho! Honorable mention Wanda's thought on how easy is to fight with pietro. Hope next years mini does twins justice.

Also Happy New Year!!

🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 happy new year!! firstly thank you so much for such a lovely ask it really means a lot that you'd take the time to let me know you liked my writing, i really appreciate it!!!! 🥺🫶 already made my 2024 a great year!!

second AHHHHHH THANK YOU.. I LOVE WANDAJERICHO SO MUCH. ever since SW #9 when they reveal they're inexplicably exes / still have feelings but with "no strings" i've been like. oh?? what?? 😭 at first i was like, oh thats funny they dont strike me as characters who'd do No Strings Attached thing. but then i gave it more thought and started thinking of ways they COULD be and wanda essentially growing uneasy and anxious over a relationship that was going so well, when she is so used to things going wrong, came to me and i was like ohhh yes... thats it... now we got it 🫵 i can see her cutting things out before them getting "ruined". i really wanted it to be like, this relationship is *fine* and thats whats freaking her out!!

when i wrote this i wrote jericho with the intention that he knew exactly why she did it, but knowing it didnt change that she did hurt him, and the whole crutch of this story being that theyre both unequivocally very in love with each other still. still the case does remain that jericho is also very committed to his duties in the academy, esp after everything they went through - something wanda would also know firsthand. i think all those student deaths/the death of doctor strange/mandatory other marvel events would take its toll on anyone tbh i can see them trying to put at least a pause on everything while they try to fix the world. As Usual. i didnt write jericho immediately taking back wanda too because, yknow, it takes two to tango! BUT THEYRE SO GONNA WORK IT OUT. BECAUSE THEY LOVE EACH OTHER THATS THE WHOLE POINT.. THEY NEVER STOPPED..IN MY HEAD. CAUSE I SAID SO AND THEYRE MY EMOTIONAL SUPPORT SHIP...

and AHH THANK YOU.. pietro in that fic was my favorite part 🫶 he loves wanda and hes really good friends with jericho of course hed have a deeper understanding of whats going on! i think pietro is a lot more emotionally intelligent than what most writers give him credit for. and if theres anyone who knows about self sabotaging or recognizing it on someone itd be him, and ESPECIALLY on wanda. defo one of my fave scenes to write in that fic 🥹 MAXIMOFF TWINS MY BELOVED..

Anyway this was a really long reply just to say that thank you SO much and this ask made my whole year and i am really grateful that you liked my fic!!!!!!! i liked writing it too!!! 💛💛💛

2/2 the scene with Vic’s death is about to happen: ‘why the fuck is Debbie throwing everything of Vics out. Just make up. Sit down and talk. Hug it out. Aww, he’s sleeping and they’re breaking into his house. Vic? Vicky? No. No. No no no no *starts slowly standing up* NO NO (Mikey is telling Deb now) what the fuck is going on? NO NO PLEASE NO (mikey tells he died) NO *starts crying* NO NOT VIC! NO NO NOOOOOO. No he just got happy! He had a boyfriend! And A HOUSE! AND A COOL BAKING JOB! NOOOOO THIS IS BULLSHIT NO. AND THEY DIDNT MAKE UP! THEY DIDNT FUCKING MAKE UP! THEY WERE FIGHTING! NOOO THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO HUG IT OUT! NO. THIS IS SOME BULLSHIT.’ Then Justin showed up ‘okay he looks cute. His hair is finally growing out. He really wants to go to Ibiza. Damn, Justin has some good lines. BRIAN! See! I told you, just fuck him together. (Brian says vic is dead) fucking hell WHY WHY DID THEY DO THAT’ the worst scene (in my opinion) happens where Brian tells Deb that bullshit ‘THIS IS SOME SHIT IF IVE EVER SEEN SOME. Im not saying he wouldn’t say some fucked up shit like this to someone. But itd be to like Emmett or Ted or Mel. But NOT DEBBIE! Not about vic, come on. Why would they make him say that? He hugged Mike and everything and youre telling me hed look at deb and say that? Why would they do that? Why do they always make Brian be the asshole?!’ All he did during the Ted/Blake scene was squealed with his hands in fists shaking them. ‘AND THAT Debbie, is why we watch our words because you never know. Emmett! Finally you read the letter. Good job, baby! Im so proud of you. Please give Ted another chance’ *he is now once again crying* And the Brian/That guy scene is up *still teary eyed* ‘well looks like Mr sunshine, is going back to school! We did it Brian. He looks sad. I just know that he feels sad because debbie slapped him. Why would they make him say all that shit? Whats the reason? Okay but since when does Brian chew gum all the time? (The guy tries to give Brian his card) *still crying* he doesn’t do encore’s! See! He respects Blondie’s rules…unlike someone else (the guy tells Brian he has a lump) *stops crying* what now? What the fuck just happened? WHAT KIND OF SICK BULLSHIT IS THIS? *looks at me, his whole face is wet and has red eyes* what the actual fucking fuck is going on? He has a lump? As in like maybe cancer lump? No. No. No. WASNT VIC ENOUGH?!’ He then got up, grabbed his soda and cigarettes and went outside. And as he stepped outside, he like looked at the cigarette in his hands and said to it ‘dont judge. Ive been through hell in the last 40 minutes’ So he is officially not okay.

My heart is breaking for your brother. The first time watching Vic die is not easy. It never gets easier but at least you know to brace for it.

They make Brian the asshole because he tells the truth... and no one wants to hear the truth.

ANNNND the cancer arc...

will the girls be fighting ...

okay i know i did joke and jest: however, to summarise i didnt find star trek v nearly as egregious as people said it was. ultimately i found it had its funny moments and was a bit of a mess but i had my fun. itd be wrong to say its a ~good~ movie but frankly the way people went on about it you'd think it was some utter disgrace

all that being said: seeing kirk now, even in this opening scene, speak with conviction against the klingons is refreshing as hell after it. like- shatner super obviously did write tff . you can tell with how kirk is just kind of there doing insane shit and saying heroic crap throughout the movie. literally every obstacle is solved with him doing something ridiculous to save the day. its funny as hell BUT now its like ok now we have an actual character back with us god bless, god speed

speaking of i do like the choice to have him oppose this so vehemently for that reason + addressing the more difficult issue of the klingons since, well... as seen in the LAST movie they just sort of laugh them off. LOL

ALSO THE GIRLS ARE FIGHTING. YEESH

oh so you remembered you have a son, kirk , now that its actually relevant

also can we be nice to valeris. can everyone be nice to valeris

OUGHHH SPOCK IN HIS VULCAN ROBES. also god i really am so fucking happy when they do vulcan philosophy & spock like this. its all i want, man

WARRIOR ADMIRATION.

valeris said #stop #racism.

and so they raise their points.... did they not raise their points?

again ugh not to be a spock girlie but something something the isolation the arbitrary measures by which we judge each other, the cultural differences in klingons vs humans how much different are the differences in humans vs vulcans how readily will they be to reject us at the end of the day something something theyre my o nly family and yet they bristle and they reject the things fundamental to Me and-

now what is occurring...

btw i have coffee cake yum yum

also did they take out their gravity something on the klingon ship. BECAUSE THATS ANOTHER THING I WANT TO SAY ABOUT SCI FI, YOU KNOW... so miserable that they have the gits always tethered to the ground . i insist we need to turn the gravity off more . i dont care if the budget doesnt allow for it

THAT BLOOD EFFECT. SLAY

oh my god rheyre servingggg in this movie arent they

th... the BLOOD I-

SORRY

I WONT MAKE THAT JOKE AGAIN

ALSO LOL SORRY AGAIN I SHOULDNT WATCH THESE BACK TO BACK - ITS HARD NOT TO COMPARE - BUT GOD THE SETUP FOR THIS ONE IS JUST SO FREAKING GOOD IN COMPARISON. SO UTTERLY DELICIOUS

kirk ....

dont be so hostile this is your new best friend ki-

holy guacamole...

THE THING ABOUT STAR TREK IS THEY WILL JUST PUT THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BREATHTAKING WOMAN ONSCREEN AND ACT LIKE IT ISNT EVEN A BIG DEAL

SPEAKING OF. i'll be so mad if valeris is the assassin. i MEAN I WOTN BE. but i will be. ugh. no respect for women ever in the world. but it feels too obvious and i dont just mean like... in terms of needing a good twist like i dont minddd that but frown sad face... im just sad a cool vulcan girlie might get the short end of the stick so i ddo hope if it is her its a good reveal / good reasoning to make up for it. you know what i mean? i'd be sad if she was JUST brought in for that singular purpose AND/OR if this is something to do with... reasonably affected persons due to the discrimination getting into some extremist shit like get a better twist and try different avenues of conversation for discussing the nuances of that even if you do want to talk abt the darker side of what oppression leads to within minority groups like theres 10 million different points of discussion and you so strangely choose the same one every time and when people contest that its "lacking nuance" even though this seesaw is so terribly unablaced but whatever its also nothing

terribly ironic of me to go on that ramble in the las tliveblog post about managing expectations LOL HELP ........ SILLY GOOSE . either way im super jumping the gun here

THE JUMPCUT OF "KIRK SHOULD BE PLOTTING HIS ESCAPE" AND THEN ITS STRAIGHT TO KIRK GETTING HIS HEAD KICKED IN THATS SO FUNNY FUCK OFF HELP

Thoughts on our episode oops:

This ones a lot stronger than i was expecting which is good!

- The beginning of the episode isnt quite my normal favorite beginning to an episode but it works for telling us fizz and ozzie are a couple and their actual dynamic which id say we needed screen time given to because its kind of an act (even though i liked the prior established idea fizz and Ozzies relationship might be that they find love gross despite being in a relationship bc its more about whats agreed upon to constitute it)

- Again i think itd really sell a theme to the episode if Ozzie didnt want to go with Fizz to get milk out of concern theyd be mistaken as a couple causing a part of the reason fizz gets into this mess

- i think Striker shouldve been kidnapped by Crimson who running out of men and money would rather kidnap and force an assassin to work for him or be killed than risk cutting his numbers down further after what Millie did. Especially bc arguably prior episodes have implied Striker is better at one on one fights and is easily overpowered when out numbered.

- Im not super on board with Striker pulling Fizz and Blitzo off the street so easily when if Fizz and Ozzie were a poorly kept secret whys it in the paper as proven and not a "shits hit the fan" moment? And hows he weaker than Bee when he's very clearly muscular? Maybe if Stiker was trying to grab Fizz's dogs especially the albino one recognizing them as Ozzies and therefore something hed pay a pretty penny for. Only to by chance pull up Blitzo and Fizz whos mistaken as Ozzies dog walker.

-okay so in backstory the fire is green. But then shouldnt he be bothered by said green fire in Loolooland and why didn't we see it in his trip?

-tbh shouldn't he possibly bc scared of horses too bc of this?

-"but you have no idea what i lost in that fire" blitzo says this like it was the start of his villain arc but personally? It just feel really insensitive to Fizz and unaware of the fact his pettiness to push someone caused this

-its really too bad barbie was scrapped from the scene bc if Blitzo walked off because he heard her scream and basically went to find hed only to catch as the tent burned down it would better justify him walking away from fizz than "trying to get help" which doesnt. Read as such.

-honestly too the fact blitz is implied to have killed people makes me think it wouldve worked better if perhaps fizz ans his mom were outliers but largely the issue was he put every one out of a job. Jobs that likely dont have very transferable skills. As they may have had the money to keep the circus going but never enough to replace everything lost in a moment like that. (Also a throw back to how hell doesnt have insurance)

-fizzs song is pretty good! With the music though i semi wish Look At This couldve been a song where Fizz is actually trying to fool Crim and his group into thinking Ozzie and Stolas have shown up especially because Fizz may not know much about fighting but he absolutely might know how to set a scene and inprovise. Maybe a bit akin to Make A Lot of Noise from the Toy Story musical.

-again wish Ozzies now offered to go with Fizz any time he leaves the house and Fizz (who went from saying he doesnt know how to fight to throwing a punch) says he can handle himself but hed love for them to go out together as a couple. Ozzie saying he doesnt need to leave the house and he'll have body guard everywhere with him reads too infatilizing and assuming Fizz as incompetent for my taste

- Salem did the concept art for this episode and the fact viv didnt credit them is really disappointing. If i can i would like to ask ppl be aware of that and maybe check those out bc they have every right to be proud of the work they did

Madara in the real world: Chapter 25

Masterlist

When Max and Tobirama got back, I was making dinner, Madara stood behind me, kind of helping me stand cause he had caused my legs to feel quite unstable. He had his nose buried in my hair, giving me kisses and whispering small praising words as soft music played from the living room, light Christmas music with Michael Bublé and the fireplace making the house feel lighter then ever. I hummed along to the music softly, ever so slightly swaying to the music with Madara, feeling the peaceful moment as I made salmon katsu curry; well, peaceful until I heard a floor board creak, Madara lifting his head only for me to hear him give a small cocky chuckle.

"I didn't realize we had an audience." He said making me turn to look, Max stood there with her phone out, a huge grin on her face as Tobirama stood behind her, looking slightly less on edge then before they left. Wonder what changed in his mind. I turned back to my cooking and chuckled.

"Can I help you with something Max?" I asked her, hearing her giggle before she came up to us, a knowing grin on her face.

"No, just getting photo's for the slideshow when you two get married." She said making me and Madara chuckle, his arms tightening around my waist as he looked at her.

"Max, how long do you think I have to wait before telling her dad I want to marry her?" He asked, Tobirama seeming to choke at that as Max put a hand to her chin, giving it a moments thought with a mischievous smile on her face.

"I'd say, give it at least a week so he can see you may not be as much of the cocky asshole you present yourself as to everyone else." She said, I couldn't help but let out a loud laugh at that, Madara chuckling, but not denying that he can act like a cocky asshole.

"It's a surprise to see you so, domesticated, Madara." Tobirama said, his face stoic as he walked over to stand by Max. Madara chuckled and rolled his eyes.

"If you're trying to provoke me, it won't work." He said, Tobirama furrowing his brows slightly before glancing down at me and back at the Uchiha. "It's simple really, you idiot." Madara said, Tobi scoffing slightly at the insulting name.

"Arguing and fighting with you will upset Alex. I will not let myself or you upset her if I can help it." Mada said, letting me move to dish up the food, as it was now ready.

"And I appreciate that so much, my love." I told him, turning after I had set the bowl I was filling down, giving him a kiss as he grinned.

"Only to keep you happy." He mumbled, keeping a hand on me even after I had gotten a plate out for everyone. Now, if only itd stay this peaceful.

‐------------‐-------

The next day was the day my parents would arrive, and to say I was nervous would be an understatement. I was cleaning the house top to bottom, with Max helping in the morning before her and Tobi went off to start making official plans for their new place. I was anxious and couldnt sit still, both too excited to see them and too anxious for them to meet Madara. I was in the guest room getting it all ready, making sure the drawers were clean, the carpet was vaccumed, the windows were washed, fresh out of the dryer bed sheets; the house couldve been mistaken for a show house if you didnt know people lived here.

"Okay, the house is clean enough. You need to take a break, all this work isnt good for you." Madara said for the 100th time. Hes been trying to take over my chores all day; taking the vaccum from me after observing for a moment to see what I was doing with it, switching the laundry for me and grabbing it before I could, making the bed for me. It was really sweet to see him doing his best to make sure I wasnt doing too much, but it was starting to annoy me now. Sure I was almost done and I could probably stop where I am, but I needed things to be perfect so maybe theyll see how much better im doing with Madara.

"Im just trying to make sure things are perfect for when they get here." I said, Madara taking the cloth from my hand as I hovered over the sink after making tartes and cookies. I huffed and turned to him, opening my mouth to say something when he tilted my head up and kissed me softly, my body melting into his grip as all irritation left me for a few moments. He pulled back and looked at me with a smile, a hand on the back of my head lightly running his fingers through my hair as I felt my tension easing and I sighed slightly. "Im just nervous. I know I have no reason to be, but they're my parents and Ive never really thought about how Id introduce the love of my life to them." I said, looking out the window showing the snowy grass and treeline, frost and condensation covering the edges like an intracate frame. Madara took in a deep breath, closing his eyes as he relaxed slightly, letting out the breath in a heavy sigh when he buried his nose in my hair, taking a few moments to breath in my scent and feel my presence.

"I love you." He said, kissing my head as I hugged him tight, my hands drawing light shapes on his navy sweater.

"I love you too." I said, pulling back slightly to grab his face in my hands and bring him gently down for a kiss, his arms quick to wrap around my waist as he lifted me up and set me on the edge of the sink.

"I cant wait to spend the rest of my life with you." He said sincerely when we broke apart, I giggled and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"First, lets get you through your first Christmas. It will be the first of many with my family." I said and we both gave a small chuckle at that, Madara nodding as he picked me up off the counter, moving into the living room to set me on the couch before he stood back up.

"I believe Ill survive, if only I have you and our child, alive and happy." He said, my eyes softening at that before unexpected tears welled up. Madara quickly sat beside me, bringing me into his arms softly, mumbling apologies for if he made me cry, trying to sooth my tears which made me honestly start giggling, which only confused Madara. "I.. I am confused. Have I upset you?" He asked after I had started laughing lightly.

"I was crying happy tears." I said, his shoulders instantly relaxing as he let out a small breath. "I just cant believe how much my life has changed from just meeting you. I couldnt have asked for things to turn out any better then with you." I said, wiping my tears while being glad I had yet to put makeup on for the day.

"So, I made you cry, because I made you happy?" He asked, his face still confused making me smile, shaking my head as I crawled over him until I was snug in his lap, his arms around my waist and hugging my back.

"Yes, but I think this means I might be a little emotional if this is from the pregnancy." I said sheepishly, Madara giving a soft chuckle before a hand moved to rub my back.

"I cannot promise I will be a great comfort, I do not know much about comforting others., but I will try, I promise." He said, my head resting on his shoulder as I kissed his neck lightly.

"This is how you can comfort me. This right here." I said, taking a deep breath, my nerves instantly relaxing just smelling him and feeling his skin touch my cheek. "Hang on." I muttered, moving his hands to hold my under my shirt before settling down again, Madara smiling in amussement, even more so when he realized he could feel my breasts with how small my frame was compared to his large arms.

"Much better." I muttered, Madara digging his nose into my hair again as he chuckled.

"I cant help but agree, my love." He said smugly, I just rolled my eyes and snuggled closer to him.

"Youre lucky I love you, even with that smug attitude." I mused, he gave a quiet laugh and kissed my head, rubbing my back.

"Im lucky you love me at all. I could never have thought of deserving a women like you after what Ive done." He said softly, I squeezed him tighter and kissed his neck and below his ear.

"You are a victim of what war does to a person from a very young age, Madara." I said, kissing his jaw. "Do not forget, you were always someone more then just a villain."

----------------------------

Hearing the knock at the door at 4 o'clock was both exciting and nervewracking. I was dressed in a pencil skirt and long sleeved, v neck sweater, my makeup done and hair straightened, Madara in a black button up and dark brown jeans, a gold and black belt and his hair was tied back slightly, his hair still as fluffy as the day he got here.

"Okay, are you ready?" I asked Madara who smiled lightly and nodded, kissing my head softly in encouragement, motioning me towards the door as I bit my lip. I opened the door to see my parents, stood there with their suit cases, bundled up in their coats with bright smiles on their faces.

"Lexi baby!" My mother squealed, pushing the door open with her arms out as she wrapped me in a tight hug, my dad bringing in their things as he chuckled, joining the hug as he couldnt help but grin. "Oh, you look amazing! Youre hairs gotten so long, look at you!" She gushed, my face turning pink as I tried to brush her compliments and cold hands off, turning to Madara to take a step towards him.

"Mom, dad, this is Madara, my boyfriend." I said, taking his hand and leading him closer to my parents, Madara sticking a hand out for my dad to shake, which he took and gave a firm shake, eyeing Madara as if sizing up an opponent subtly.

"It is an honor to meet the two responsible for raising such an amazing women. She has truly change my life for the better." He said, my eyes tearing up slightly but I pushed them down, not wanting to be overly emotional in front of my mom, since she knows me well enough to know when something is off if im not careful.

"Im Damien, this is by wife Louise. I look forward to getting to know you, Madara." My dad said, giving Madara a small smile which Madara returned, bowing his head slightly.

"Ive heard many good things about the two of you, sir. Alex speaks very highly of you." He said, my parents slightly surprised at Madara's formality.

"Well, can't have all been good. This one may have been the best behaved of our kids, but she sure can be sneaky if she wants to." My father chuckled, smiling as my mother took her coat and shoes off, my dad following suit.

"Before you start interrogating Madara, you should probably get settled first, because Max and Tobirama should be home in an hour." I told them, my mother chuckling and smiling.

"Fine, but im getting some questions answered later. We cant have him being a stranger if hes going to be out son-in-law eventually." She said, my dad shaking his head as I chuckled, Madara smiling as he wrapped an arm around my side softly.

"I assure you, you will get those answers." Madara mused, becoming slightly sheepish for a moment. "I apologize in advance however for my attitude if I may seem hostile to Tobirama at any point. We have some.. deep family issues that we cannot see past." He said, my father furrowing his brows at that as my mother looked slightly concerned.

"Dont worry! Theyve both agreed to be civil while you are here, and I hope that will remain since Tobirama and Max are moving into Gandma and Grandpa's house soon." I said quickly, hoping they werent too alarmed at this information.

"Well, if you two really cant see past it, being civil is the best you can get." My dad said, kinda shrugging it off. "I appreciate you being mature enough to not start fights if you can help it though. I assume Alex and Max were in charge of keepin you two from fightin before now then?" He asked, Madara nodding making him chuckle.

"We'll see how he acts with me here, then if anything happens, I'm the one breaking you two apart. Alright?" My dad asked, my mother giving him a light smack as Madara chuckled.

"I promise, I will try my best. I just want Alex to be happy and if that means not fighting him, so be it." He said as I hid my face in his shirt, trying to hide my tears welling up again. Jesus christ, why were the hormones seeming to all hit at once?

"I love you, so fucking much." I whispered, barely audible, but with how his arms tightened around me slightly, I know hed heard me.

"Im not so sure about my husband, but a promise is good enough to me." My mother said, moving to go upstairs with my dad, before stopping just before she left, looking at Madara sternly. "I am putting my trust, and my baby in your hands. Be careful with that." She warned him, my dad chuckling and shaking his head, shooing her along.

"Alright, lets leave them be. I know you want to take a hot shower to warm up from how cold it is here." He said, both of them going up and out of sight after that. I looked up at Madara, seeing his eyes already on me as he wiped a tear that dared escape.

"I love you." I muttered, Madara smiling softly.

"I love you too, my queen." He said, kissing my forehead, both of us oblivious to my mother, who was peaking down the stairs at us and grinning ear to ear before she left back up where she came. She already knew her daughter was happy.
