part 49 "The Suspects" liveblog:

the friar serves...gloon? diametrically opposed gods and cultists, just take me back to magpod already! I love this shit

awww arthur you should have gone with the king </2. how eagerly John wants him to say it T_T but Horig makes sense I suppose

ok the order serving azathoth makes sense, it been surprisingly long without mention of him considering his importance to the mythos

watch your pop culture references arthur!

...arthur bragging about how many murders you've done is not the way to prove your innocence

i wonder whos sigil it is. john would have to know if it was the kings. lilith's? kayne's?

oh rip Gerard. I think they're a little to quick to claim its barnabus. it could still be everard or the woman.

oh fuckkkkkkk. ok maybe arthur was right about barnabus.

who would have wanted it this way? Yurgothar? is that who he worships? barnabus is seriously losing it, he sounds almost inhuman

yeah i don't think its going to be barnabus who did the original murder. if its everard then now you're trapped in a room with him. yeppppp. it doesn't make any sense for him to commit the murder masked and then remove it right before he disappeared but i appreciate the drama lol

oh shit pit trap!!! yeah its been too long since these two fell down a hole. oh no dislocated shoulder is not what we need. and the bag is stuck! "goatwood tree" oh boy thats gotta be shub-niggrath huh.

and we have to torture poor john with his nyctophobia again. I'm glad arthur knows how to help him as much as they can right now, letting him describe everything. I'm very worried about what these trees are going pull. maybe we can pull some living forest cred with the dreamlands finger? "we are friend to evil sapient forests" and all?

kellan?? arthur i'm worried you're getting delirious. and hopeless, that's really not good. arthur you are the Unconquerable!!!! don't give up! it does strike me that a repeating fear for arthur is his body betraying him. we've mostly seen that through his response to john gaining pieces of him but this sickness must feel pretty similar.

omg the letter.

T_T T_T T_T "Maybe I've always known it." T_T the parallels between arthur reciting it to yellow and then john reciting it to arthur!!!!! rip oscar's letter. maybe this is what the forgetting ritual did, wipe away their ability to read it.

oh using it for light. wow. thats something alright. i think oscar would be honored.

DARK YOUNG ALERT! HEY I FUCKING CALLED IT, I SAID SUB-NIGGRATH JUST NOW, I SAID DARK YOUNG WAY BACK AT THE START OF S5

"Excellent, John, but I need to know--" lol time for life or death not time for investigating john. still wonderful job, and you know a weak spot!

ok six shots left, soon to be five... now four, now three left, two, one more shot come on arthur!!! aim upwards anddddddd a hit!!!!

yorik's being uncharacteristically quiet, whats up dude???

oh jesus i thought everard was kayne for a second there, he scared me. what does john want to do with the coin? villain monologue time!

arthur let john talk. oohhhhhhh. hell yeah john you're the best. I totally forgot they got the coin from the three soldiers. "stand against the darker forces of this world?" but the soldiers were from the order right? that doesn't sound like the order or like everard. interesting, so the soldiers here are already dead

malevolent parent and child themes my beloved

jfhjffhkdh everard on the one hand i'm glad you're doing this but on the other arthur is not a safe person to hand the black stone over to, he's planning to bring it straight to the crawling chaos himself.

everard can you please help us ditch horig's plague pleaseeeee. oh thank goodness. annnnd of course there's a cost. "forces unseen" yeah that's got to be kayne.

interesting...i wonder who the other three trusted are. does anyone know if this is the s5 finale or what? this new plot seems like it could be the start of a new arc or of a whole new season.

Weekend Wip Game ✨

I was tagged by the lovely @daffi-990 thank you mwuah 😘

Rules: List your WIPs below (if you only write one fic at a time, feel free to include future WIPs/ideas!) then answer the following questions. Then, tag as many people as you have WIPs (or more)

(I cut it off halfway cuz I went long like always...)

1. WIP List:

so as you know my wip list is pretty long, but the active ones right now are:

• the mudslide fic

• the jealous eddie fic

• the breeding kink fic

• the accident fic

• the donation smut

2. Which of your WIPs is currently the longest?

the mudslide fic is currently standing at 38.6k and I expect at the very least 20k more... which wouldn't just make it my longest current wip, but also the longest fic I've ever written

3. Which WIP do you expect will end up the longest?

the mudslide fic hands down, unless something drastic happens and one of my wips gets away from me (though from the inactive wips I expect two of them to be around the same length, possibly)

4. Which WIP is your favourite to write/the most enjoyable to write? Why?

I enjoy all of them, but the mudslide fic is surprisingly joyous to write, even though it's mostly just me putting the boys through the emotional and physical wringer lmao

5. Which WIP do you find the most intimidating to write? Why?

listen. I love writing the mudslide fic, but I kinda wrote myself into a hole with it, in the sense that I included a couple of real life locations (though only vaguely) that I just had to make shit up for, which is fine cuz the show does the same, but... idk it's long and the boys spend quite a large chunk of the story separate and it makes me worry that people will find it boring or just idk will be nitpicky about it... like, I have confidence in my writing, but I'm also forever insecure about it??? ugh

6. Which WIP do you experience the most self-doubt about. Why?

uhhh I guess the accident fic?? because it's short and it's kind of written in the way I usually write ficlets, which means I don't spiral about the details that much and now I'm worried that it's gonna seem rushed or way too out of sorts 😓

7. Which of your WIPs will you seek out a beta/sensitivity reader for? Why?

none of them, I'm very much a fuck it we ball type of writer

8. Have any of your WIPs been struck by the curse of writer’s block?

yeppppp. that's why I have so many active wips atm cuz I got stuck on both of my main ones 🥲

9. Which WIP has your favourite OC? Tell us about them?

the mudslide fic – and she's barely even in it, but she grew on me anyway 💛

10. Which WIP is the sexiest?

I have to say the donation smut... or the breeding kink fic, whichever floats your boat I guess

11. Which WIP is the angstiest?

the mudslide fic, definitely

12. Which WIP has the best characterisation (in your humble opinion)?

I'm not sure??? like, I try my best in all of them, but I can't necessarily say if I succeeded idk

13. Which WIP has the best scene setting (in your humble opinion)?

again, I'm probably gonna have to go with the mudslide fic

14. Which WIP have you worked the hardest on?

👆 I've been doing quite a lot of research going into legal procedures, sixth grade curriculum and body decomposition in water, just to name a few (and most of these barely feature btw 🥲), not to mention looking at the map of LA constantly to gauge distances, but it's still kinda fun though

15. Which WIP do you have the highest expectations for? Why?

uhmmm I don't have high expectations for any of them, if we're talking about like, comments and kudos and stuff... usually the fics I just write in a moment of inspiration and just throw online get more attention than the ones I try to finetune for hours/days/weeks, so you know... I try to write fics for myself and hope that there are people they resonate with 🫶

16. Do you dream about any of your WIPs?

listen, I have really hectic and weird dreams, but I don't think I ever dreamed about any of my wips

17. Do any of your WIPs have particular complexities that your other fics don’t?

well, if nothing else, operating with this many characters is something I'm not exactly used to, so the mudslide fic and the jealous eddie fic are kinda unique in that regard, I suppose

18. Which WIP is the funniest or has the most humour?

I'm not... exactly big on writing goofy stuff, which is unfortunate because I love reading it, but I mean it a 100% when I say angst and smut is my bread and butter

19. Do any of your WIPs contain outside POVs or a deep dive on a character other than the main ship? How are you finding that process?

not a very deep dive, but I do touch on a side character's background in the mudslide fic, no outside povs though

20. Tell us one thing we don’t know about one or more of your WIPs

idk?? uhh it's not an active wip, but all I could think about is that Homesick For Your Skin isn't my first parallel universe fic, but it's the first one I had to work out without magic 🪄

I'm sure most of you have already done this, but here are five no pressure tags anyway:

I also love red-and-white Megatron with red optics. I figured he got rebuilt post the final fight before this and looks more like a mix of baby Megs and MTMTE version with more compartments he's had added to help with medical work and decided since he has so much space might as well basically become a walking operating theater. He isn't quite the same size but still did go up in size pre-almost war and felt no need to slim down just repurpose his mass.

Figure most of the gray is now white and red portions are bright medical red. Also some red bracing on the arms which are compartments for storage. The dark gray remains that color. Not sure if the black should stay black or also be red.

The squiggles are only red medic symbol outlines while in training with blue markings on the shoulders indicating the hospital he is training at and his mentor. When full status is achieved red chest symbols filled out and blue marking removed.

Hands painted red, and he upgrades them because he has now qualms about frame upgrades. I am thinking a sane Tyrest is commissioned as part of slimy Zeta connecting people. Megatron is wary, but Starscream convinces him that if it is a setup, Starscream has now compunction "biting the servo that fed them" and Megatron should take the "damn upgrade". Tyrest thinks it is a challenge of his engineering skills and Megatron actually gets a good impression of him. He's old, very old and they discuss philosophy and history and the rise of the Functionalists and then he talks politics with Starscream. Minimus who is there, is a little heart eyed.

Yeppppp

Makes sense makes sense!

Ah yes of course more pockets— a need!

Okay but that's fucking hilarious that he can just pull whatever out of where-ever and it's mostly medical supplies. Useful definitely definitely but also it means he can somewhat literally pull a scalpel out of his ass if need be

oh he sounds so pretty, I waffled on answering this yesterday but it was too late in the sleep cycle for that

Hmmmnnnn I'm also liable to suggest we lighten the black up to the same as that light gray? (In my photo edited sketch, I followed the first EOM explanation and changed the black to red, but it WOULD look interesting with the white)

I am internally chanting "you don't have to worry about having too many colors, Thunderclash exists" because anxiety brain

of course! zeta is plotting!

I feel like Tyrest and Megs would have cool interactions, especially since this is another situation where we see a side of a character we know exists but don't explicitly see in the comics (or maybe we do in the end kinda?? We know he was healed at that point, but in the end things were really picking up pace as the ending and he got turned to dust)

Oh mins

[aceofwands]

Yeppppp to all of this!! 👏

"I understand that Eddie is a complex character and that there are reasons for the way he acts." honestly, as someone who came into this show fresh and binged all of it over the last couple months, is he and are there?? because his character consistently makes no damn sense to me!

I was genuinely looking forward to his backstory ep cause I thought finally we'll understand why he's been acting the way he has, we'll see why he fucked off to join the military instead of staying with his wife and child, we'll gain new insight into why his relationship with Shannon was such a mess, we'll understand his motivation and his family background and why he chose to join the military as his way of escaping - and then we got literally none of that!

and thank you for bringing up how damaging it was to move Chris, who he barely knew at that point, away from his family and support network in Texas in order to chase after Shannon (and then not actually let her back into Chris's life for months) - cause I've seen some people say things to the effect of "now his (Eddie's) parents got what they always wanted!!" as if it's a bad thing that they wanted to continue to support their grandchild who they had been raising???? especially when Eddie is a single parent working a dangerous job that requires 24 hour shifts, like there was nothing we saw that suggested they were bad people that Chris needed to be taken away from ffs

and it's been genuinely baffling having the show constantly tell us what a "good dad" he is while consistently showing us otherwise - usually by calling in Buck to do basic stuff like *checks notes* having a conversation with his own son

it's honestly been wild having the show actually acknowledge what a mess Eddie is and have Chris put his foot down, because it's like yeah, finally a genuine reaction to all this batshit behaviour!!

People acting like Eddie has been the best dad you can ask for like...

Eddie has been unstable for a while. Chris has been in an unstable household for seasons.

There is no question that Eddie love Christopher or that Chris loves his dad.

But Eddie is not a good parent.

Eddie left after Shanon felt pregnant when they were both teens to join to army, a job that famously takes you away from your family for years.

Eddie left a young pregnant woman alone and then demanded that she give him space after he returned from the Army and asked him to literally just parent their son.

Eddie made Chris leave his entire environment that he grew up after he was barely building a relationship with him.

Eddie had multiple meltdowns infront of Christopher that he never really to our knowledge even communicated to his son.

Eddie joined an illegal fight club because he saw no other way to deal with his emotions.

Eddie let multiple women get attached to Chris, let Chris start to build a relationship with them, including rebuilding a relationship with his mother, only to dump them when things got to serious for him.

Eddie had a series of panic attacks that as far as I can remember was never openly communicated to his son.

Eddie was injured multiple times on his job and nearly died. He then used Chris as an excuse to leave said job, seemingly never communicating with his child about if that was actually what said child wanted or how he could make his child feel better about the risks that came with the job.

Eddie has made multiple seemingly rash decisions that he never communicated with the people that were involved (putting Buck in his will, moving Marisol in and out.)

I understand that Eddie is a complex character and that there are reasons for the way he acts.

However they are not justifications for what he puts his child through and if you have to argue that Eddie still loves his kid above all you are exactly using the kind of gaslighting that abusive parents use to justify the horrible actions they do to their kids.

Eddie is not a good parent. Eddie has shown he can be. However throughout the show Eddie has never been a good example of parenthood and he has been unstable for years.

His son is allowed to demand more. Chris is allowed to be angry at everything that his father has put him through and continues to put him through because Eddie refuses to seek help or work on himself long enough for change to set in.

Christopher is a child that deserves to voice how he feels. Chris deserves to live with who he feels most comfortable with. Chris deserves to be in a household of his choosing where he thinks he will be the most safe to grow up in.

'The Art of Conveyance and Round-Trippery' Liveblog!

Sorry this is a few days late!! I moved across the country this weekend, we drove like 13 hours within 2 days and we did a lot of heavy lifting. I'm exhausted, but the boxes are slowly emptying and I've been wanting to watch this episode so gd bad, so LESGO

Over halfway through the season!!!! That's absolutely surreal

1:11 oooh they're getting their royal fitting

1:22 LMAOO WTF 😂😂 Princess Diaries vibes

1:42 ✨CONFIDENCE✨

1:52 Alfonse is a perfect name for that guy HAHA

2:05 Nathaniel, my guy, you've made some points

2:11 "do you feel your power?" POWER RANGERS, GO

2:24 no no hesitation just prolly thinkin bout how he was caught cheatin

2:39 "can you not allow yourselves luxury?" okay fr I feel that I get Nice Things Guilt(tm) too easily

2:52 dayummmm let's talk about Sticky being a hat stall between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, mans is brave as fuck under extreme pressure and loyal to the point of putting himself on the line

3:15 bro Sticky getting some recognition. Love to see it, he deserves it

3:19 "is that a coincidence? Or written in the stars?" IS DR. CURTAIN CATCHING ON THAT THEY KNEW EACH OTHER BEFORE OR LIKEEEE

3:49 WHAT WORD AROUND CAMPUS 😭😭😭 MY BOYS ARE NOT A MISTAKE HOW DARE YOU

4:09 why doess the action of Dr. Curtain putting the sash on them seem so nefarious

4:36 I dont really understand the whole pastel yellow, blue, and pink palette of the school but the boys both look pretty okay in their vest-sash getup

4:42 THE OPENINGGGGG. This shit slaps.

5:41 Kate and Constance look so fucking cute in that shot, dont ask me why but hnnggggg

5:54 sash rope 😂😭 kate, honey, that's a reach

6:09 it might feel buttery, but, my guy, it also looks buttery. It's literally the color of butter. Get yourself some crisco

6:24 I find it kinda interesting that they made up new riddles for the show, I'm almost positive that that one wasn't in the book. Correct me if I'm wrong though

7:03 "I'm not gonna apologize for knowing things" the sass. the ✨confidence✨. living for it

7:03 If they build on that it sets Sticky up really nicely for the arc in the second book where he starts to show off a little

7:15 tiny Constance who is constantly dressed in pink with cute little braids is the perfect medium for the most morbid comments 😂😂

7:55 Martina's hot in her uniform. Can't prove me wrong.

8:15 why does that make me sad 🥺 eat with your friendssss. iirc they only talked about eating at the Messenger table in the books

8:26 dipshits forgot their lunches. Seems Constance is holding the communal braincell atm

8:50 anyone have Guiness on speed dial? Reynie and Sticky have a submission for them

9:25 oh hello this was alluded to in the preview!!! Morse code is compromised, rip

10:05 so are Jackson and Jillson stuck with night guard duty all the time?? They've been outside at night a lot

10:18 ahhhhhh the little blinkie light, stopppp

10:25 MILLIGANNNNN!!!

10:25 so is this the point where he starts staying on the island with them????

10:39 so are they just like "fuck it we'll do it right before sundown" ???? Like Jackson and Jillson are still gonna be on the lookout, they aren't gonna chill just because it's not fully dark

10:50 did the kids.....just not tell them that Mr. Bloom was on the island 😂 nice oversight guys

11:05 MADGE TIME MADGE TIME

11:05 remind me to tell you guys a story about Madge, I may or may not have done something irl a few years ago that would make y'all proud 😂😂😂

11:16 idk why but it makes me so happy that they kept Madge as a peregrine falcon

11:37 Rhonda, my love, you have my heart in your hands

11:46 roll credits

12:05 THE HEAD SHAKE HAHAHAH

12:06 Awww man, I was so excited for Milligan to be on the island .-. He must have been scoping out the inlet

12:07 "they're quite regal" A. I read the subtitles as "legal" the first time and that's somehow really in character for him, and B. IS MILLIGAN GOING TO NAME HER???!? HER MAJESTY???? PLEASE I WOULD LOVE THAT SO MUCH

12:15 his grimace KILLS ME

12:17 the hard cut from Nicholas in a brown setting and brown suit to Nathaniel in a blue setting and blue suit was lowkey striking

12:36 are they looking up Morse code 😳 can you imagine if they wrote down the message and are now decoding it

12:41 omfg all that for a HAT 🙃 I feel stupid

12:51 two things: 1. Those walls are atrocious, and 2. Yeah, talk about Morse code in a louder voice Connie girl, you're just in a public hallway

13:03 I'm sorry but those orange pillar things are not the vibe

13:03 the golden gate bridge called, they want their arches back

13:10 please let Kate climb the tower before the end of season 1. please.

13:22 y'all are about to be flying something else 😎

13:33 cleansing breaths

13:47 OH HELLO MESSENGER DUTY ALREADY??

14:06 what the heck is that teal pole for 😭😭

14:12 blindfold timeeee

I'm so sorry but I'm exhausted, it's 11:30 pm on Sunday night right now, I'll finish this episode tomorrow morning after I get some sleepies

~~

Good morningggg lesgetatit

14:50 "vomit of metal" ashhdjdjd

15:16 a wild Martina appears!

15:36 and if you folks look to your left, you'll see a wild Constance being the voice of reason once again

15:57 "lose the bucket" "I'm not gonna do that" HELL YEAH KATE

16:07 I get not having the bucket on the court lolol, I thought Martina was telling Kate to lose the bucket in general. Like, yeah, good luck convincing her to so that

16:35 show!Kate is much angrier than book!Kate and I'm still deciding how I feel about that. The Kate we've known from the books is a sunshine baby with looots of repressed trauma.

17:03 ......what is that. why is that.

17:11 WAIT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE REYNIE AHEHDJDJD

17:15 HI MADGE

17:41 the grand swell in the music makes me think it's going to go comically wrong

17:51 she's majestic because she's a queen 🥺

18:03 LMAO CALLED IT

18:14 Rhonda and Number Two getting at each other is such a sisterly thing to do 😂😂😂

18:37 ohhhhh? Someone's approaching? Miss Perumal perhaps????

18:45 YEAHHHHH BABY

18:50 PROTECTIVE MOM COMIN IN HOT!!!

19:22 THEYRE SO PRECIOUS 😭😭😭😭 I feel like I've been subconsciously starved for her and Mr. Benedict's interactions

19:36 died at that line in the one trailer

20:00 so Miss Perumal pulled a Sherlock Holmes. Love that for her

20:20 Cheri Tupintown??? Of all the aliases they could pick, Cheri Tupintown???

20:33 "Power in Truth Inc" that HAS to be something Rhonda came up with

21:01 you can literally watch Mr. Benedict realize that this is a woman not to be fucked with and he is CORRECT

21:23 "he's fine. Perfectly fine." At this, Mr. Benedict's pants caught aflame.

21:52 something about Constance sitting in on practice!!! It scratches an itch!!!!

22:19 "incorporate the helix. Live in the helix." Lord Helix is pleased with this offering.

22:26 so what I'm hearing is Kate is going to blow up on Constance for messing with the bucket

23:13 unrelated but Jillson'a shoes are cute

23:29 why does this room give off Johnny Depp's willy wonka vibes

24:13 that looks like a chair from a doctor's office waiting room 😭

25:29 they do be egg heads tho

26:02 baby girl, I have no idea why you're crying at weird art but let me dry your tears 🥺🥺

26:50 SHE FOUND ITTTT

27:27 okay Indiana Jones, go off

27:46 why did that kinda sound like Miss Perumal

28:43 the return of everyone's favorite, "enjoyable"

29:05 not that I'm not loving the ice breaker questions and the one-sided conversation, but I'm not loving it

29:22 oh so we're getting right into it aren't we

29:54 his eyes being open again makes this infinitely creepier

30:36 "where's your proof?" Miss Perumal doesnt fuck around!!!

31:29 you're telling me Constance has been there all day?? And Kate went to find her???? 🥺

31:58 oh so we're getting right to it then?? Kate addressing her independence and trust issues arc????

33:29 NEWS!!!!

33:49 CONSTANCE RIDING PIGGYBACK!!!!!!

34:04 okay, so they opened the murder hole, what are they gonna do now

34:59 Italian? 🤨 m'sir that is so fancy

34:59 fun story I learned Italian diction in college, so I know a little bit

35:16 "take your time" the whisperer says, immediately repeating the prompt to get the answer sooner

35:31 theeeeere it is

35:46 SOMETHING ABOUT THE WHISPERER SAYING "YOU ARE HOME" 😭😭😭 the show really played up the cult shit!!

36:02 Kate being protective of Constance 🥺

36:20 ohhh shit is it time for Connie girl to have double Reynie? Double Sticky?

36:36 STICKY

36:52 "what kind of nonsense?" HAVE THEY NOT ASKED THAT BEFORE THIS?????

37:14 "and your tiny brain can somehow pick it up!!" KATE STOP 😂😂😂

37:16 "I knew you had to be special in some way." WE DONT HAVE TIME TO UNPACK ALL OF THAT

37:51 she's right, this is disregard for their safety. The show made Mr. Benedict and his team a lot more back-alley and dishonest, and Miss Perumal has every reason to be pissed

38:30 oh good they finally remembered he has narcolepsy

39:38 and the best mom award goes to:

40:38 I was gonna say that this hallway is how I imagined the KEEP in riddle of ages but then I remembered that (spoilers) the Institute is the KEEP

40:46 oh, hello propoganda

41:10 that's the other person Rhonda couldn't contact, along with Mr. Bloom. This has to be the brainsweeping process

41:22 yeppppp

41:44 this dark doctor's office theme gives me horror movie vibes

42:22 ohhhh, so that's how they replaced that scene where the four of them jump in a crate to hide and Sticky drops his glasses in the open

42:47 and so we've come to the part of the story where Sticky and Reynie become infinitely more conflicted

42:47 and since we've reached that point..... can we have the white knight scene? Pretty please? Please Disney I'm begging you-

43:12 so Reynie just figured that out without Constance? :/

44:03 love the manipulation

44:31 I'm sorry, the farm?

44:35 farm and forest????

45:16 "the Emergency has served its purpose" 😳 well okay then murder man

45:39 "one thought, one purpose" the hive mind rises once more

45:48 LOVE THE MANIPULATION

46:07 "what have you done to earn anyone's trust?" VALID

46:26 "please do!" WHY AM I EMOTIONAL

47:06 "we still have the falcon" that you do 😂

47:19 AYYY HERE WE GO!!! Time for Milligan to stay on the island??

47:49 ohhhh Constance, casual telepath strikes again

48:16 "stop it, Kate!" OOOOHHHHH

48:53 that line ("it would be nice to be unburdened") would be funny as shit if not for the fact that Constance is a telepath unbeknownst to herself and can both subconsciously perceive people's thoughts and hear the subliminal messages

49:20 HI MRS. PERUMAL!!!

49:25 wow, she's really going through with it 😳 not that I doubted her, but still, that's dedication

49:39 OH SHIT

50:17 oh, so he's an asshole to SQ too. Got it. Torches and pitchforks? Ready to kick his ass?

50:40 "for the moment, anyway" FUCKIN WHAT

This episode was really good!!! They covered a LOT. I hope Miss Perumal comes back to the group and talks about her findings, I hope Milligan goes to get the kids and they tell him no, and I hope they get that classic 4-person Society brainstorming and binding time that hits that sweet spot

12x23 - All Along the Watchtower

In which the door to apocalypse world opens, they lock Lucifer in there, but Mary's locked in with him and Crowley and Cas die. And then Jack is born..

Any Cas? Yessss

CARRY ON MY WAYWARD SOOOOOON

One shot of Cas out there by the cottage and I'm crying..

Ikea struggles 😊

"I'm very good at following instructions" ..are you?

"I will give my life for your son" he will 😭

Holy shit, that's a very gruesome scene, what did he do to Rowena :(

Ouch, Sam getting Luci on the phone..

"The checkout guy looked at us like we were super weird." "You get used to it." CAS

He read 74 books on child-rearing 🥺

She's always wanted to punch the devil in the face..

Oh god, the portal..

Awwww, Kelly recording the video 🥺

"What if he can't?" "Well then we kill him" :')

Crowley realising he hates being king of hell!

"You big, beautiful, lumbering piles of flannel"

He wants to seal the gates of hell 🥺

He used the name James Novak, oh Cas 🥺

HE TOOK A DOULA CLASS ONLINE 😭

He's too damn cute 😭

A world without pain or hunger or want. No fear, no suffering, no hate. More proof the finale wasn't real..

Whatever else is happening, Cas will heal Dean

Good solid throwback to the French Mistake

Yeppppp, hello alternate Bobby!

"This is a world were you were never born. It's a world we never saved." I mean if you ever wanted to know how important you were to the world, this should show you :')

Killing angels is his hobby and passion :')

HE NAMED HIS GUN RUFUS

Cas is not amused at Dean's excitement about angel killing bullets :')

Okay, but Luci could've just snapped his fingers and killed them right away..

Honestly kind of a dick move, trapping Lucifer in the other world. Smart, but not great for the other world..

Awww, rip Crowley

NO CAS

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

DEAN KNEELING WITH CAS, I CAN'T TAKE THIS

HI JACK. I'M VERY UPSET RIGHT NOW BUT STILL HAPPY TO SEE YOU 💛

[dathen]

I reckon the Web wanted The Only Actual Ritual to go through and now they want to subvert the nightmare world so that the Eye is not on top. The first half is based on hard evidence like "they sent a person to encourage John to wake up as opposed to kill him" and "the tape that inspired John to get a rib taken out & walk into the coffin showed up covered in cobwebs"; the second half is basically just "they're doing *something*" plus "what fear *wouldn't* want to?"

YEPPPPP this is what I suspect too!! I realized the other day my future-predictions are really flimsy because my passion is analyzing “where we are now and how we got here,” but I am pretty damn sure that the Spiders want Apocalypse + Something and that is a very big possibility.

All About Us

more fluff and not your requests lee? Yeppppp sorry my brain can't  handle much right now. 

it's based off, well not based off. It's a songifc of All About Us by He Is We  it's just really cute and cheesy so go to listen to it, preferably while you read to get the full effect. I'm too tired to put the link I might in the morning.

anyway hope ya like it,,, it's about 2k words

Dark stormed into the kitchen, ignoring the calls of his name coming from the meeting room. Bim had pushed him too far this time and he knew he had to remove himself before someone got hurt.

He gripped the edge of the counter, watching his aura flare around him as he tried to get it under control. Blood rushed through his ears, meaning he didn't hear the gentle footsteps into the kitchen.

What he did hear, though, was a melody, a soft tune sounding as if it was played from a music box. He was in no mood to snap at whoever was playing the music, especially when it was so pleasant and he already felt so emotionally exhausted.

Suddenly, he felt two hands place themselves over his and a familiar voice drifted into his ear, singing along to the music.

"Take my hand, I'll teach you to dance. I'll spin you around, won't let you fall down," Wilford sang. He gently pulled Dark's hands away from the counter, turning him around as he sang those words and giving him a smile once they were face to face. Dark stared at him in shock, but he couldn't find it in him to protest as Wilford guided him into the centre of the room.

"Would you let me lead?" Wilford carried on as he placed Dark's hand on his shoulder and carefully placed his hand on Dark's waist, "You can step on my feet. Give it a try, it'll be alright." He started to sway them to the music, pulling Dark a little closer.

"The room's hush hush, and now's our moment. Take it in, feel it all and hold it. Eyes on you, eyes on me, we're doing this right." As he continued to sing, Wilford leaned closer, pressing their foreheads together gently. Dark relaxed more into his arms, letting himself melt in the man's eyes. His heart was still pounding, but for a very different reason as the gap between them started to close and he felt a smile start to form on his lips.

There was the sudden sound of footsteps coming down the hall and they quickly jumped apart, the music stuttering to a stop. They looked to the door, where Bim came in, looking at the two of them in slight confusion before glancing down at the floor. Wilford stepped back and headed out of the room, probably to give them space, but Dark still wished he would stay.

"I'm really sorry, Dark. I didn't mean it, I just got frustrated, but I'll think next time before I let it get the better of me," Bim said. Dark took a small breath and Bim seemed to tense up, but Dark only shook his head.

"It's alright. Make sure it doesn't happen again," he said before leaving the room, leaving Bim in shocked silence.

Dark thought of following Wilford, but even the thought of facing him again made his fading blush go a couple shades darker. He instead went back to his room and instantly opened his laptop, searching up the lyrics. Typing them out brought back the memory of Wilford’s low voice, singing every word perfectly, as if he knew the song off by heart.

He put his earphones on and listened to the song once he had found it. His heart started to beat wildly again as he listened to the lyrics. This was a song clearly about people deeply in love… so why had Wilford sung it to him? His cheeks were so dark they were almost black as he curled up on the seat, feeling like a high schooler with a crush. He decided that he had to do something back. If Wilford really was sending him a message, he wanted him to know that he had heard him.

Dark was usually a master of the art of subtlety. Wilford, however, seemed to throw all that away, which is why Dark was outside the man’s room the next day, anxiously waiting for him to answer his knock.

Wilford eventually opened the door, giving Dark a confused look that only got more confused as he noticed Dark’s nervousness.

"Is something wrong?" he asked. Dark swallowed and shook his head, motioning with his head towards Wilford’s room.

"May I come in?" he asked. Wilford quickly nodded and stepped back, giving Dark space to go past him. He walked into the room and turned to face Wilford, giving him a small smile as he reached out with his aura to carefully shut the door.

"You know I don't like leaving things unfinished, so…" he started. He snapped his fingers and the song started, just at the end of the chorus. Dark took a deep breath and started to sing along to the verse.

"Suddenly, I'm feeling brave. I don't know what's got into me, why I feel this way," he sang. He walked slowly towards Wilford, wrapping his arms around his neck and leaning close.

"Can we dance real slow? Can I hold you? Can I hold you close?" He swayed carefully to the music, relaxing more as Wilford joined in and wrapped his arms around Dark's waist. He joined him for the next part as they spun around the room.

"The room's hush hush, and now's our moment. Take it in, feel it all and hold it. Eyes on you, eyes on me, we're doing this right," they sang. The gap between them started to close again and they found themselves a mere inch away as their voices trailed off as well.

Neither was entirely sure who leaned in first, but suddenly the gap finally closed. The kiss was gentle, the music fading out as Dark let everything focus on the soft lips against his and the warm hands pulling him impossibly closer. He lifted his hands just enough to thread them through Wilford’s soft hair. They sighed into the kiss, feeling no rush, no urgency, just a comforting relief.

"I love you," Wilford admitted once they parted, pulling Dark a little closer as if scared that he'll disappear any moment. Dark bit his lip even as he smiled, looking down to the floor.

He could have taken days to reply. He could have thought over who he is, what he is, if he is even capable of reciprocating the words. He could have thought over what Wilford meant to him, how good of an idea it would be to have something between them.

He knew, though, that in that moment, there were no other four words he wanted to say.

"I love you too," he replied as he looked back up at Wilford. The man seemed to let out a breath he was holding and he leaned down to give Dark a quick kiss this time.

Dark smiled fondly at the memory of that day as he followed Wilford down to the beach. There was something different about today; he could tell it from the way Wilford seemed to thrum with energy, or rather, more energy than usual. Pulling his coat closer with the hand that wasn't held in Wilford’s, he moved closer to him to try and catch some of the heat that always seemed to radiate off him. He stayed quiet, though, having already grumbled about the fact that Wilford was dragging him out to a beach in the middle of the night in November. He had to admit, the beach was peaceful without anyone else and the water looked beautiful, illuminated only by the moon.

Wilford let go of his hand to get out the blanket they had brought, spreading it across the ground and placing the boombox he had brought down on it. He sat down and gestured for Dark to sit down next to him, pulling him close when he did.

"So… what do you think?" he asked. Dark smiled up at him and affectionately rolled his eyes.

"It's… nice. Quiet. I love it," he admitted. Wilford smiled proudly and pulled Dark closer until he was sitting sideways on Wilford’s lap. He let himself relax against the man’s chest, closing his eyes and listening to the music.

A familiar tune started to play, and he opened his eyes to look up at Wilford, who was pretending not to notice. His attempt was rather poor, though, as he was smiling widely and after a few moments he looked down at Dark and over at the boombox.

"Oh, I like this song! It brings back good memories. What a coincidence, hm?" he asked. Dark snorted and nodded, leaning closer to him.

"Yeah, a coincidence," he muttered. Wilford laughed lightly and a devilish glint formed in his eyes before he stood up with Dark in his arms, moving from side to side and slowly spinning them. Dark let out a yelp, cheeks flushing, as he gripped onto Wilford’s shoulders tightly. He joined in the laugh after a moment until both of them were breathless. Wilford carefully set him down and they got their breath back.

"Shall we dance?" Wilford finally asked, offering his hand out. Dark smiled and nodded, taking it and getting himself into position. He counted them in and Wilford started to sing again as they started to dance.

"'Cause lovers dance when they're feeling in love, spotlight's shining, it's all about us. It's all about us. And every heart in the room will melt, this is a feeling I've never felt but it's all about us," he sang. Dark laughed again, pointedly looking at the empty beach all around them, but Wilford simply guided his chin back to look at him. He slowed them to a stop and slowly let go of Dark, taking a step back.

“Wilford, is something wro-” he started, only to choke on his words as Wilford searched in his pocket whilst he got down on one knee. He brought out a small box, holding it up and opening it to reveal a ring - a silver band with a gemstone in the middle. It seemed to be pure black, but every tiny movement made it glitter with a million different colours in the moonlight.

"It's black opal… it reminded me of you. You have to look closely to see its true colours, but when you do… they're beautiful," Wilford started. Dark simply stared at him in shock, feeling tears form in his eyes from the sheer amount of emotion he felt.

"Dark… I love you more than I've loved anything else in my life. No matter what, I'm happiest when I'm with you, and… I want to be with you for the rest of my life. So, Dark, will you marry me?" he asked.

Dark tried to speak, but he couldn't get the words past the lump in his throat. He settled for nodding frantically and giving Wilford the widest smile he could give as he took deep breaths. Wilford smiled back and slowly stood up, taking the ring out and taking Dark’s hand with his other one. He looked up at Dark again, searching for any hesitation.

"Yes!" Dark cried finally, letting out a noise that was part laugh, part sob.

"Wilford, I love you so much, yes, of course I will marry you!" Wilford laughed lightly and placed the ring on Dark’s finger before pulling him close. Dark wrapped his arms around Wilford’s neck, and easy gesture that was almost muscle memory now, and they looked at each other for a moment. Dark got lost in Wilford’s eyes until he noticed they were closing, but by then it was only seconds before Wilford leaned in and kissed him deeply.

Dark smiled to himself as he looked over the new ring on his finger; a thick golden band that matched the one on Wilford’s hand. A sign that they were together and nothing would tear them apart.

It had been a fairly quiet wedding, one shared amongst their closest friends only. Now they were in the back garden of the house, the sun shining down on them as people chatted around them and music played faintly. Dark looked over to where his fingers were interlaced with Wilford’s. He followed his arm up to admire the man that he could now call his husband. Wilford seemed to notice and he looked back at Dark, smiling softly as a faint blush rose to his cheeks.

"Hey, beautiful," he said as he squeezed Dark’s hand gently. Dark blushed and laughed lightly.

"Hey, yourself," he replied. Wilford smiled and leaned a little closer so he could murmur in Dark’s ear.

"Do you hear that, love? They're playing our song," he said, or rather sang, nodding towards the speakers that were dotted around. Dark paused to listen, smiling wider as he realised Wilford was right and that he had sang along.

"Do you think we’re ready?" he sang back. Wilford hummed and stood up, leading Dark to join him as he headed towards a clearing in the middle of the tables. They held each other close and started to dance.

"Isn't our first dance meant to be to the whole song?" Dark asked with amusement. Wilford hummed and dipped him, making him gasp and hold on tightly. He gave the man a half-hearted glare as they straightened back up.

"It's our wedding, Darky. We do what we want. We have the rest of our lives to dance to as much of this song as we want," Wilford said. Dark nodded in agreement and focused on moving, on the security of Wilford’s arm around his waist and the happiness he felt bubbling up from his heart. Wilford hummed along to the tune, looking down at Dark with a look in his eyes that made Dark’s blush deepen.

"It's all about us," Wilford sang along to the last line and they started to laugh as the others cheered. Dark leaned forward to hide his face in Wilford’s chest. He laughed as Wilford picked him up and started to carry him back to their table.

As they walked, Dark took the time to look up at Wilford and take in all of his features. The man seemed to glow with happiness and he didn't doubt that probably looked similar. He curled up towards Wilford as they sat down and smiled fondly.

"I love you," he murmured, wanting to say so much more in those three words. Wilford smiled and leaned down to kiss his cheek, a simple gesture, letting him know that he heard him.

"I love you too."

[allofthisnonsenseplease]

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 can we do a thing where jack is a dumb jock jock jack.... joack........ like he's on the college football team and he keeps trying to impress gabe w his letter jacket and shit and gabe is like ",,,, k"

gabe doesn't realize it's flirting he thinks jack is just trying to show off

gabe, as per usual, is a theater major (though he tends to work more on set design/costumes/directing than actually acting). he and jack meet in some required class, like a math class or something, because they happen to sit next to each other

jack is struggling. he is Not good at this subject. they get tests back and jack's grade is bad. he accidentally sees the score on gabe's paper and it's like 99%.

holy shit the hot guy sitting next to him is smart

he kinda flashes his own test score at gabe with a weak smile and is like "hey, ha, guess i should've spent less time playing football and more time studying."

gabe just kinda glances at him and goes back to his own thing with a dismissive "mm."

jack's expression wilts a little bit but he brightens up and asks, "so uh, any tips? how'd you get to be so good at this?"

"by not talking during class," gabe says shortly.

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Jack is only deterred for a moment. He asks if he can hire Gabe as a tutor. Gabe reminds him that there's a tutoring center on campus Jack could use, and eyes him suspiciously. He could definitely use a bit of spare cash, but he doesn't know why this guy is offering in the first place. Jack upps the offer: cash, plus dinner every night Gabe can tutor him. Deal.

Elated by this success, Jack doesn't think at first about how quick he's going to blow through his spare cash doing this. He actually ends up getting apart time job in order to pay Gabe's tutoring fees, which isn't a problem...right up until Gabe starts to warm up to him and wants to hang out, but Jack has to work. =(

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 awww jaaaack you idiot jack keeps hitting on gabe when they meet up for tutoring sessions but jack does it so poorly gabe just thinks jack is show-offy. which is weird bc he is also very self deprecating. like bragging about being all buff from football practice but also constantly making jokes out of all the millions of mistakes he makes while playing and he is. very bad at math. VERY bad. gabriel doesn't know where to start with this kid.

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 but, startlingly, Jack actually does try, which is why Gabe doesn't quit after the first session. Yeah it's frustrating, but it's not like Jack is ignoring him and goofing off. maybe he's got dyscalcula or something

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 awwww jackie and amazingly jack still fails his next test but only by a slim margin. improvement!! he flashes gabe the paper and gives him a lil grin and gabe is like SIGH still a long way to go but........ good job.

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Jack feeling like garbage after that, though, and apologizing for having wasted Gabe's time. He's smiling as he says it, like, 'haha guess i'm just an idiot' but Gabe gets the vibe that he's really bothered over it.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 OJSNDKJND SADNESS

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Maybe that's when Gabe is like: 'hey, let me treat tonight' and Jack perks up all at once, then remembers that he has to work.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 qoq gabe says quickly "after work then. i have a car, i can... pick you up." jack is like really?? but it'll be so late.... but gabe doesn't let him refuse the offer

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 awww. they end up at denny's XD

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 LOL gabe is still bein all reserved but he does his best to reassure jack that he did a good job and it can only get better from here, it's a good sign and all that jack is all "awwww gaaabe it almost sounds like you care about me<3" to deflect from his own feelings of self-worth |D

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 lol poor guy what if they run into some of Jack's teammates there, and they kinda tease him about finally hooking up with Gabe, and Jack has a mini heart attack as he tries to protest no, this isn't...! it's not like that! and he ends up looking like a blond strawberry, and unable to meet Gabe's eyes. ((unless you were wanting to wait longer on the reveal?))

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 AWW maybe he protests a little too convincingly instead of crumbling he like puffs up and laughs and is like "LOL as if"

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 JACK NO

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 gabe is like "haha yeah. as if."

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 * claws at face *  i d i o t s

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 d(owo) jack keeps trying to pester gabe into coming to see one of his football games by promising to go to gabe's next show

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 is Gabe invested enough to be a bit insulted over Jack's lol as if? does he get grumpy and keep refusing to go and tells Jack that he isn't even in the play, so there's no reason for him to bother? and Jack shows up anyway and looks for him afterward?

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 yeppppp oh goddd what if it's like shakespeare or something else classic and jack pesters gabe to the point of annoyance where he snaps at him about why would jack even WANNA see it, it's not like he'd understand it or something like that

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 OUCH

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 regrets it immediately of course but it's too late, jack's all closed off with his awkward laugh and a carefully blank expression gabe tries to apologize but jack just kinda shakes his head with that smile of his and says "don't worry about it, it's true."

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 bonus points if it's decidedly Not True lol jack playing hamlet in high school

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 he tests horribly and has a hard time with writing so his grades are shit and people think he's either dumb or doesn't try and neither of those things are true omg that's hilarious the problem is jack agrees w those assessments and so he just leans into it instead of fighting it

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 starts to think that since even Gabe sees him that way, then he's definitely not good enough for Gabe, so he just kinda gives up. quits the job, cancels the tutoring sessions, stops answering his phone, starts skipping class, even. Gabe checks for him at work after the second time he skips, and finds out he quit. He and Jack only ever studied at the library, so he doesn't know where Jack lives, and Jack isn't answering his phone. Confronts him after class next time when Jack's there, and asks him what's going on. When he mentions that he tried to find Jack at work, Jack just waves it off and admits he only got the job to pay Gabe, and since he's a lost cause he figured why bother? He neglects to mention that he's been trying to study on his own with his schedule freed up again.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 QoQ gabriel's heart hurts he starts with, "look, if this is because of what i said, i didn't-" jack cuts him off. "no. it's okay. it wasn't. you just reminded me." gabriel wishes jack would quit smiling like that and get angry at him

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 O U C H orz fuck you for that one

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 :3c gabriel blurts out "please come to the play on friday. i think you'd- i think you'd like it." he doesn't know what else to do

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Jack's having a harder time keeping his smile in place, but he manages, and mumbles that it isn't really his thing, then tries for an escape oh shit. what if, trying for anything to make him reconsider or even just wait a moment, Gabe offers to explain it to him beforehand so that Jack isn't lost, and Jack just whips around to look at him and there's this expression on his face that Gabe's never seen before, and Jack just flings a few of Hamlet's lines at him--he'd been thinking back to that ever since Gabe said he wouldn't understand--but he can't remember the whole of it--it's been years since the play after all--and not being able to finish the part he started only makes him feel like he proved Gabe's point instead of demonstrating that he's actually at least a little smarter than everyone says.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 sggcjhbjhbgdsCGJBJHD GABE STOP FUCKING UP

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Gabe is like 'wait. WAIT. we need to talk about that. what was that?' but Jack is flustered and freshly humiliated and shrugs him off and practically runs away.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 dfgxfghcvbhc jack just wants to be good at something qoq

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 that's part of the reason he's so proud of football--it's the one thing he's good at, so of course he's gonna try to draw attention to that rather than his failings

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 qoq

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 What if Gabe shows up to the next game and finds Jack afterward, and Jack actually brightens up to see him for the first time in a couple weeks, and Gabe's just: 'I sold you short before. Give me another chance?'

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 QoQ gabriel totally knows what he's feeling by now he might not know how MUCH he likes jack... but he knows it jack laughs but it isn't that false thing he's always falling back on, it's bubbly and a little awkward. "i really need to pass this next math exam so yeah" gabe is a little distracted by how jack's all sweaty and bright from adrenaline maybe a little more than distracted

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 realizes suddenly and a bit embarrassed over it 'i, um, can't afford to pay you for tutoring at the moment, though, so...'

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 gabe, thinking: i know what you CAN pay me with

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 omg gabe

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 instead he waves his hand and says, "it's payment enough just to be with you." jack stares at him, cheeks already flushed from the game so it's hard to tell if he's blushing or not, and gabriel realizes he just accidentally flirted with jack

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 AWKS that's not even subtle flirting, either XD jeezus, Gabe

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 XDD IT's MORE SUBTLE THAN WHAT HE WAS THINKING props on the censorship gabe

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 but Jack, after he gets over that initial surprise, lights up over it. Gabe is blindsided by how happy he looks.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 >w< gabe gets kinda flustered and is like UM. UH I'LL.. I'LL TEXT YOU and escapes

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 leaving Jack to wonder exactly what the hell just happened. lol what if he gets stuck in his head again and thinks Gabe only suggested tutoring him out of guilt and that he hadn't meant what he said the way it sounded?

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 NOOO

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Jack ends up thinking that there's no way Gabe's actually going to text him later after that.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 JAAACK gabe, meanwhile, hands shaking as he holds his phone and tries desperately to come up w a casual message

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 god gabe if we haven't all been there in one way shape or form

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 yepp he eventually decides on something like "hey i'm free x day if you want to study" om g gabe starting to have lil fantasies about """"studying""""" with jack

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 lol Jack being SOOO relieved about getting the text that night. he asks what time, and Gabe's just anytime come over in the morning i'm free all day we can make a day of it and Gabe's got his heart in his throat over that

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 GABE YOUR THIRST IS SHOWING

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 and Jack's a bit nervous now, too, but holy hell he isn't gonna pass up that chance.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 THEY LIKE EACH OTHER SO MUCH THESE DORKS

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 oh! that'll mean Jack gets to go to Gabe's apartment! ^^

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 >w< as soon as jack walks in the door, gabe is like yes this person belongs in my house forever

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 <3<3<3 they get right down to studying with some drinks and snacks, but an hour or two in, Gabe calls for a break to move around a bit and let the info settle in Jack's brain. and, of course, he has to ask about the Hamlet thing.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 ahhhh

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Jack shyly admitting that he was the lead in the play in high school. he starts to say that he didn't really get it, only memorized the lines, but the words stick in his throat. when he glances at Gabe for his reaction, expecting skepticism, he's a bit surprised to see gabe smiling crookedly. 'My bad for assuming,' Gabe says. Jack brushes it off with a laugh and the 100% true claim that he's better at being a jock anyways.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 acassdvddvxf

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Gabe, eyes lowered as he's plucking at the carpet where he's sitting next to Jack, murmuring: 'You're more than just that, Jack.'

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 GABE THAT'S GAY

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 lol he's just admitting that his new friend/crush is a multidimensional human being!

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 jack kinda prickles and smiles and says "nah. what you see is what you get with me." gabe IS a gay mess for jack though

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 ABSOLUTELY please and thank you

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 gabriel is silent for a moment, pondering the patterns on the carpet "that's not true," he says finally typing w one finger is hard lol

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 XD you can do it! i believe in you!

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 :heart: he gestures at jack's paper smile and says "like that." jack's expression is strained. "i don't... what are you saying?" "come on jack, you're smart, you know what i'm saying," gabe sighs. jack doesn't refute that statement, but his smile is painful at this point "we- should get back to work," he says abruptly

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 defenses ar in imminent danger of being breached!! red alert!! you are typing better with one finger than i am with two hands

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 XDDD

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 brb--need more tea

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 d(owo) "i mean it, jack," gabe tries again. "you're more than the person you lead people to believe you are. you can't fool me anymore, i know you're sm-" jack cuts him off with a hasty kiss

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 !!!!!!!!!!!! Jack, recoiling while blushing furiously: See? If I was smart, I wouldn't have-- Gabe, leaning in to kiss him again.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 sacsdvdrbtntfrfs

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 altho, to be fair, all Gabe knows is that Jack tries hard, tests poorly, and was Hamlet in a high school play lol

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 and that he's sexy as hell after a football game

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Gabe is all: 'I know you're smarter than most people think, we just have to figure out how to show it. How did you learn your lines for Hamlet? Maybe that's the key to how we should study. Jack: i'd really rather kiss you again thanks

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 gabe: come on jack you're good at- jack: hey shut up and fuck me maybe

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 WOW Jack. second date at least, i think

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 hey JACK stop avoiding your issues with sex k XDD

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 XD so, like, who wins? do they keep studying? at least until Jack has just gotten too fidgetly over the fact that Gabe kissed him back and they have to take a break to deal with that somehow?

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 they try to study until gabe slams the book down with an exasperated sigh and kisses jack again

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 and he can sense immediately the difference in Jack's focus lol where a moment ago he'd been distracted as all hell, but the moment Gabe touches him, Jack is all about the kiss

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 also that jack is really really nice to kiss gabriel breaks it off briefly to drag them both onto the couch and then kisses jack into the cushions

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 jack gasping out in-between kisses 'god i'm so glad you weren't serious that night at denny's'

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 gabe gets offended at that like UM YOU WERE THE ONE WHO REJECTED THE IDEA OF US HOOKING UP FIRST

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 Jack's just HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED? I WAS PAYING YOU TO SPEND TIME WITH ME And they both stop. And stare. Inches from each other. Jack: I didn't mean to admit to that.

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 LOL oops accidentally told my crush just how desperate i was to hang out with him

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 lucky for Jack, Gabe thinks it's more cute than sad? like, he'd already almost realized, since Jack took the job to pay him, but it wasn't 100% that it was all about spending time with him and not at least 50/50 about studying Jack, covering his face with his hands: just...don't look at me Gabe laughs and kisses all over the backs of his hands and fingers

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 AWWWW CUTE jack is grinning behind his hand and gabriel can't Deal

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 In an effort to get Jack to uncover his face, Gabe, in a mock-scandalized voice, goes 'I can't believe you rented me like a common whore' and Jack immediately pulls his hands away from his face, caught between panic and laughing denial

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 LOL GABE gabe is just holy SHIT i like him so much

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 NOW are you glad you gave the arrogant jock a chance, Gabe?? XD

firesonic152 - 11/08/2017 XDDD ALSO HOT JOCK this means all kindsa handsiness in the locker room during quick football practice breaks lmaO gabe like just shows up at practice to watch jack

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/08/2017 lol Jack keeps having to run back inside for bathroom breaks. he is. Not Subtle. okay, but, jumping back to the study session--with most of the morning gone and Jack's focus shattered, they just kinda give up and end up falling asleep on the sofa. when they wake up, the afternoon sun is pouring in, and Jack is kinda sore and crushed from Gabe falling asleep on top of him, and there's a wet patch on his shirt where Gabe is drooling a bit in his sleep, but he's, like, so happy that he's afraid to move and wake Gabe and possibly ruin this bc is he really this lucky???

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 LOL I PASSED TF OUT AT LIKE 11:45 LAST NIGHT DAMN ALSO WTH THAT'S ADORABLE

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 :heart::heart::heart:

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 also also i have serious a question how does jack balance his thirst for gettin wrekt w playjng football :thinking:

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 ahhhh....that's a good one. he doesn't. XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 LOL

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 lots of toys and frustrated nights alone in his empty bed

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 AWWW omg buT

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 maybe he goes to a bunch of parties and hooks up there, and his rep for that is part of the reason Gabe didn't take him seriously at first.

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 after a big game when he has a little break before he has to be able to do shit again he is On gabriel sdckjseckjs starts associating games w getting rekt afterward though, that's a little awkward

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 lol Jack's teammates getting concerned 'cause it seems like he's been pulling a lot of muscles in games lately from the way he's so stiff the day after XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 XDDD I'M IMPRESSED THEY ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW THE REAL REASON

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 maybe they just don't want to think too hard about the details. XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 XDDD although one time jack does get injured during a game so gabe can't go all out on him afterward HE"S SO UPSET

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 but that means that Gabe just has an excuse to go as slow and sweet as he wants and Jack just gets to lay back and deal with it as the anticipation builds up until he's jelly-limbed and wrung-out just from the pent-up need

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 >w< gabe steals jack's letter jacket for once instead of jack stealing a hoodie and jack fucking Dies he like can't find it anywhere and then later he sees gabe wearing it just casually IT HAS HIS NAME ON THE BACK HE'S SO FLUSTERED

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 lol if it's a bit too tight on Gabe's arms ^^

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 ddfbvrdd

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 XD dude, while i was making dinner i was thinking about the jock!Jack fic & the part where Gabe takes his letterman and just...Jack joking around about Gabe taking his name. ^^ <3 Gabe shooting back only if Jack takes his.

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 AHHH CUTE so like... gabe's got his career path planned, what is jack gonna do be anxious about his life or, does he fuckin join the military,, without gabe in this one,,,,

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 he tries to go pro and breaks a knee or something and then ends up homeless in his 20s

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 SOOZY

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 XD sorry sorry ignore the knee jerk reaction ummm... maybe he's just fucking around for the time being, going to college on a football scholarship while trying to figure out what he wants to be

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 gabe becomes a big time broadway set/costume designer and jack is his trophy husband

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 XD jack can decide he wants to be a nurse. maybe he ends up patching Gabe up a lot after little accidents with building sets and what not

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 ahhhhhhhh he's like super nervous about med school bc he famously sucks at school but it turns out he's good at medicine??

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 OH SHIT I FORGOT HE WAS A SCHOLASTIC FUCKUP XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 LMAO XDD

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 maybe he'd always kinda wanted to do that, though, but he never thought he'd be able to manage the education required, so he gave up. alternatively, massage therapist Jack. they have a SHIT TON of stuff they gotta learn but they can do it relatively quickly. also...jack giving Gabe massages. let's not even pretend that wasn't entirely why i suggested that.

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 >:3c maybe he got good at it bc of sports and people always pulling muscles and shit and gabe gets like a cramp from sewing and jack helps him out

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 or gets a cramp from being hunched over his work for so long lol Jack gets up to rub his neck and shoulders, and Gabe just melts and is like shit, dude, why don't you do this for a living?? Jack: haha like i'd be able to memorize all the muscles and connective tissues and various strokes and pressures-- Gabe: Jack, we talked about this.

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 jack has nice big hands >w<

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 Gabe is like, 10000% on board for being Jack's practice dummy when he starts his coursework but I do like the idea of Jack going into a nurturing career like that for some reason. what if he went to work at an assisted living facility? places like that can be pretty stressful and depressing when they aren't properly funded or staffed. Jack bringing work home with him, going gray early on from trying his best to do three people's jobs and it's still not enough, really, but his protests to the management fall on deaf ears.

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 QoQ WTH THAT'S SAD

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 trying to pick something that aligns with how he seemed in some of the canon stuff without dragging this into war

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 yeah qoq he gets like super stressed and it makes gabe stressed also gabe has his own stress bc broadway is hella stressful

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 which one blows up his workplace? XD jk jk

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 HAHA i mean gabe probably creates some explosion effects at some point

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 Jack having to sweet talk their landlord bc some of the stuff gabe brough hom accidentally got ignited XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 so jack is hella stressed at his caretaking job and gabe hates seeing what it's doing to him but he knows he can't suggest that jack quit without having like a solution for another job he can have bc otherwise jack'll be like "oh yeah i'm a failure" you dummies.... communication........

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 lol he ends up talking Jack into a management position somehow. Jack stages a takeover of the facility and ends up as the manager/director/whatever. He's got less time with the people living there, but at least he can make their lives better now.

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 :DDD yay!! immediately jack feels better about everything bc!! look he's accomplishing things!!! and he also has a super hot boyfriend for whom he can finally afford a ring so that's nice

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 ^^ aww! lol what if him and Gabe manage to get permission to bring the residents out to watch a dress rehearsal?

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 awwwwww

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 and Jack's so pleased at how much everyone enjoys it, 'cause he loves seeing them happy & he knows gabe works so hard

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 qwq HOW DOES THE PROPOSAL GO does jack do some nerdy gabe's-play-related thing like steals all the extra explosives for pizazz XD

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 XD omg. lights their apartment on fire or something lol

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 AWWW HE ACCIDENTALLY SETS THE APARTMENT ON FIRE AND IT'S RAINING OUTSIDE SO THEY'RE ALL HUDDLED OUTSIDE AND MISERABLE WHILE THEY WAIT FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND ITS COLD AND JACK LOOKS JUST SO DEFEATED BUT HE GIVES GABE HIS JACKET AND GABE STICKS HIS HANDS IN THE POCKETS AND FEELS THE BOX

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 what if he's been working with the residents on a new flower garden--something to give them a hobby & brighten the plac eup all at once, and he calls Gabe down one day supposedly to show him the end result, but really it's to propose to him AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THE RAINY ONE

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 djfknadkfjnacjsn

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 i like yours better! XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 XDD YOURS IS CUTE TOO

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 mine doesn't feature Jack-the-massive-fuckup

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 XDDD that is a feature him just looking so distressed and upset and gabe is kinda annoyed about this whole thing but then he feels the box in his pocket and immediately is like HOLY SHIT

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 voice shaking as he says: 'Jack? Is there something you wanted to ask me?' and Jack just looks at him blankly for a moment before realization dawns and Gabe sees shock and dismay and embarrassment cross his face before he just laughs and covers his face with his hands. 'ohhhh, i really fucked this one up, didn't I?' Gabe gently tugs his hands down. 'We can just call it a rehearsal, if you want. Try again another day?' He smiles encouragingly until he gets a tiny answering smile from Jack. 'Wasn't sure how the scene will end,' Jack admits quietly, hopefully. 'It's obviously a comedy, Jack. Those end with weddings.'

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 AHHHHHH THAT'S G A Y gabe: spoilers, i'm gonna say yes jack: KSJNFASKFN

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 i love that that is so often your reaction. XD

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 XD IT'S TRUE jack is like "look i wanna propose to you properly again but-" and gabe is like "dw i'm putting on the ring rn i can't wait"

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/09/2017 omg. dorks. i love them. why have you cursed me with this?

firesonic152 - 11/09/2017 d(=w=) and gabe gets like super antsy and the second they get back inside he darts into the bedroom and comes back all red-faced w his own ring

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 <3<3<3 lol Gabe didn't get to propose first bc he wanted it to be PERFECT and Jack just wanted memorable

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 awwwww they just wanna be married already luckily gabe's latest show is like super popular so they've got a shitton of money to spend on it gabe wants Everyone to know he has a husband

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 Gabe gets super involved in wedding planning and Jack is slowly getting more and more nervous because greaaaaaaaaat. MORE people to make a fool of himself in front of. people who know Gabe. People who might judge Gabe for his taste in partners.

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 NO JACK YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HE WANTS TO SHOW YOU OFF TO EVERYONE HE KNOWS every person he meets he's like "hi i'm gabe btw have i told you about my amazing husband yet" and everyone is like "well no i just met you two seconds ago" and gabe is like pulling out photos "SO HIS NAME IS JACK"

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 XD oh god he's one of THOSE people he's FLYNN

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 HAHA

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 ((omg--amost forgot to mention: the thought crossed my mind the other day--Mix Tape crossover fic with classical music student Gabe trading suggestions with Flynn about how to live with a metalhead lol))

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 LOLL jack is all self-conscious but all gabe wants to do is get him in a nice suit, drag him along to every single fancy party to show him off to everybody, then come home and tear that suit off and lavish him in praise

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Gabe getting to put him IN the suit, tho like, helping him get dressed, doing up teh buttons, smoothing down creases, feeling the heat of Jack's body through the nice fabrics, the scent of him buried beneath the smell of soap and deodorant and fabric softener, but knowing that at the end of the day, Gabe is going to get to undress him layer by layer and reacquaint himself with the feel of Jack's body beneath his hands, with the scent of his skin, with the taste of him...

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 JDBFSAFJB also gabe like went with him to the tailor when they bought it in the first place and oversaw everything ((he designed it of course)) (((he was such a pain in the tailor's ass))) ((((they can't go back there))))))

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 X'''D

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 but the end product is a ridiculously attractive suit complete with a waist coat

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 aaaaaaaaaaaaa

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 gabe tying jack's tiiiiie =w=

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 Jack nervously smoothing it down after Gabe helps him put it on, just kind of laughing in his usual unsure of himself way and musing that it probably doesn't suit him, then looking up to see Gabe drinking in every line of him, following the movements of his hands over his body with a hunger that makes Jack flush and wish they had more time before they need to leave

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 jnfajskjdnfkcanj gabe starts musing out loud about how the hell he's gonna take this suit off jack without ruining it at the fancy dinner party gabe is practically glowing with pride every single person who comes along he's just like LOOK AT MY HUSBAND HE'S PERFECT "that's the best part, the outside is new but now it reflects what's already in you :musical_note: " "i couldn't change that if i wanted to~ and i do not" //this whole thing is really making me think of that legally blonde song lol

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 XD it's giving me Fluri feels, tbh. Flynn wishing Yuri saw everything that Flynn sees in him. ;;

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 XD

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 jack makes a fuss every time gabe buys him a suit but the look gabe gives him when he wears them is nothing less than thrilling every time

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 ouo

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 something about the fact that gabe doesn't even want to take off his clothes before fucking him like reallyyyy does it for jack the idea that he's THAT irresistible drives him a little crazy

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 omg. Gabe doing wonders for Jack's self-esteem just by loving him so much

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 QoQ yess

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 also, while we're discussing clothed sex--snuggly lovemaking with Jack in nothing but an oversized cableknit sweater

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 YESS gabe has no clue how he managed to find an oversized sweater given just how Huge jack's upper body is but somehow he did

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 XD

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 and it's heckin cute

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 maybe he knitted it

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 awwwWWWW WIAT THAT'S CUTE

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 like, it took him two years but XD

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 jack is all pouty one day bc the oversized sweater look is so snug but he's never been able to find something that's oversized on him SO GABE GETS TO WORK

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 <3<3

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 and gives it to jack for christmas jack doesn't cry (he does a little)

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 Jack is OVERJOYED

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 tbh it's a little bit of a present for gabe too. bc now jack will hang around the house in JUST the sweater. and gabe can't do it

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 omg XD smooth, Gabe. ouob

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 IT'S JUST WAY TOO TEMPTING TO SLIDE A HAND UP THAT TANTALIZING THIGH and the way it hangs it just barely covers jack's ass gabe caaaaan't

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 he played himself XD can't get any work done on projects @ home bc jack's always hanging around in the sweater

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 dfjnakfdjn

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 grinning like the cheshire cat over his mug of tea

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 snuggly jack is dangerous gabriel comes home and is like "JACK PUT ON SOME FUCKING CLOTHES I NEED TO WORK" and jack is like okay and gets into one of the goddamn suits and gabe is like "YOU BITCH I WANT A DIVORCE" and jack is like "babe you're literally unbuckling my belt right now"

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 X'D

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 what if jack starts to get self-conscious about the fact that gabe makes way more money than him though

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 JACK NO Jack not enjoying the hard-to-shake feeling that he's a kept man?

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 yeah qoq like the work he does is hard and important, but it's not glamorous and it certainly doesn't make him money

SuspiciousPopsicle - 11/10/2017 plus, he's not getting to spend time with the residents anymore, and he had wanted to be able to help people one on one

firesonic152 - 11/10/2017 HOW WOULD WE SOLVE THAT ONE THOUGH

So I’ve read this dyan sa group na yan. 

This is clearly a recipe for disaster. 

And this is what I’ve been avoiding. This is by far the LONGEST time that I’ve been single. YEPPPPP! 5 Months. without anyone, without talking to someone, without flirting with somebody, no dating apps, NOTHING. 

And I’m proud of myself really. This is by choice by the way. 

14 years I have been in a relationship. YES! 14 YEARS. 

4 yrs (with sidechicks) then after we broke up, 2-3 months I am flirting with someone, then I had some handful flirting for a year. Then a 3-yrs relationship (with sidechicks) again after we broke up, 2-3 months I am dating again and then the 4th month on that same year, I entered a new relationship again and it lasted for almost 6 years. ( without a side chick, YES PROUD LOL) 

I am not proud sa cheating years ko, but I know that this a good indication na people do change, it takes a lot of self awareness, responsibility, accountability, growth and healing. 

Anyway, going back. I don’t want to hurt people anymore. It was never my intention to hurt people ( like the one dun sa screenshot) pero I know I was very unstable nung mga time na yun. All I want to do is to have someone agad, just because I don’t want to heal, I don’t want to feel the pain for a long time. And it caused me to bring my past baggages. 

I did learned many things from my past relationships, and I did learned A LOT from the last relationship I had, and she helped me changed some of my toxic traits. 

But 2-3 months after I broke up with the recent relationship, I realized na, “sino ba si Cheyenne ng walang partner, ng walang kalandian? I don’t know her really.” 

“Cheyenne: she’s someone’s girlfriend” - yun na lang ba mag de-define sa akin? I know myself when I am in a relationship, but sino nga ba ako? alone?

I realized na kung bakit I’ve lost myself during and after the relationship. Because di ko nga kilala sarili ko ng ako lang. Minsan nga napaisip ako e, “favorite ko nga ba to? o kasi favorite to ni _________  nagustuhan ko na lang?” “trip ko ba yung music na to? o dahil eto soundtrip ni _________ ?” Eto ba talaga yung hairstyle na gusto ko? O kasi gusto lang ni _________ “ 

I know sometimes, we adapt the likes and the favorites of our partners, and eventually nagugustuhan na din natin. Like dati I don’t like shawarmas/ arabic foods but one of my past girlfriend did like it a lot, saka masarap yun legit na shawarma talaga, so nagustuhan ko na lang din. Ayaw ko dati na naka clean cut ako pero dahil gusto nun isa ko pang past girlfriend, well.. I do look good pag naka clean cut ako, so yun minsan yun hairstyle ko. 

Every long term past girlfriend that I had, they are a part of me right now, kung sino ako ngayon.  yung skill ko sa pagluluto kasi tinuruan ako ni , yung lawak ng food palette ko kasi pinatry at kumain kami sa ibat ibang resto ni,  yung knowledge ko sa flowers, yun knowledge ko sa interior design, yung naging cat lover ako, yung naging caramel macchiato yung go-to drink ko kasi favorite ni, yung pagiging sophisticated ni, na adapt ko, yung pagiging kalog at yun sense of humor nila na adapt ko din. as in  sobrang dami nilang na impart sa akin. may mga bakas sila sa buong pagkatao ko. Yun yung natutuwa ako. REALLY. 

Pero this time, gusto ko ako lang muna yun makaka discover ng things na gusto ko. I want this journey all by myself, minsan malungkot lalo na kung 3rd wheel ka, or cuddle weather, or may nakita kang kyot things na may ka matchy-matchy. or may naglalampungan na mag jowa sa tabi mo HAHAHA. It’s lonely and painful. Tbh, nahirapan ako mag adjust lalo na nun 3rd-4th month HAHA. 

And the most important thing, gusto ko muna ma resolve yun past baggages ko, yung trust issues ko, yun mga unhealed wounds ko from the past, hindi lang from the recent relationship ha? WAAAAAY BACK 2006. Hindi lang din sa mga past girlfriends ko but sa mga taong nakasalamuha namin like, family, friends, mga unwanted people ( i don’t like to be rude kasi so “unwanted people” na lang LOL ). May ugali kasi akong minsan bnbrush-off ko, pero minsan nagtatanim ako ng sama ng loob, kaya alam ko nag pproject minsan sa relationships ko, of course nun mga panahon na yun wala pa akong idea sa “emotional intelligence” sa “narcissistic tendencies” sa “projection” sa “inner child wounds”. Recently lang talaga ako naging self-aware sa mga ganyang psychological and social issues ko, started back nun nag CBT ( Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) ako. - will talk about it in a different blog LOL

Dadating naman ulit yung girlfriend sa right time, if si Lord na talaga magbibigay. And I know it will be worth the wait. Baka nga asawa ko na talaga yun dumating. 

Anyway, that’s for my Day 1 Blog.

In Starscream's (not) the sire?!AU as trine leader, Starscream's going to demand his whole trine take paternity tests and he's going to do the most ungracious victory dance when he's proven to not be the sire of either set of bits. We're talking TFP Starscream's "I can't hear you," Shakira hips.

But Warp and TC *are* the daddies. Imagine by Vosian law the two of them having to Conjux Megatron and Impactor or pay child suport. Starscream now has to deal with Megatron, and Impactor, and the bitlits being moved in to the trine shared home beccause Warp and TC got hitched since they couldn't afford child suport payments. Which makes the grounders part of his flock now. Which means he's now a beta-sire to his trinemates creations.

So while Starscream avoided the Tax-mech and ended up not having to pay child suport he still ended up as a beta sire.

YEPPPPP

Dude's not one to take the "noble" option, nah nope nope he wants answers now. Which hey he's right not this lol, we need robot Jerry Springer in on this. Also yES THE HIPS. I may not simp for Starscream as much as I do for Megs but I have eyes. I see him and I'd tap that. Surprisingly, these hips do not lie (right now) TC and 'Warp, you *are* the fathers!

I can see that being a law in not just Vos, but quite a few places in Cybertron tbh?

Starscream is so tired of this shit already, he just wanted to avoid the robot IRS because these bitches broke as fuck. Again, another universal karma moment where he thought he had gotten out of something but nopeeeee.

YEPPPPP!!!! FACTS!!!

I’ve seen this used as evidence that Will is ace (which im setting aside headcanons ppl can have whatever hcs they want but im focused on analysis only for this), but personally, I think that rather than him being ace, it’s more about struggling to deal with the trauma that comes from Lonnie and how it ties to sexual attraction/sex in general.  And exactly, like, what happened to Will with Henry is a.) very CSA coded and b.) IS canonically/textually an assault committed by an adult man (henry, who was controlling the mindflayer and the vines, especially with how henry’s vines seem to operate as his own twisted version of reproduction/the fact that the only living and moving vine in the ud in s1 was the one that Hopper pulled out of will) but it’s not associated with sex in quite the same way that abuse from Lonnie would have been. Both are equally assaults/abuse, both are associated with sex but it’s just about the different contexts and the way that the association in Will’s mind would work/different types of association, and the way that Lonnie’s assault imo is more likely to be tied by Will, in his mind, to Will’s shame around sexual attraction in a relationship with Mike. Like just to be SO clear, I’m not saying this in a ‘henry didn’t do anything bad/it wasnt that bad,’ way at all, im saying it in a ‘literally in terms of which form of abuse is more likely to be associated with domestic relationships and sex in general, I think it’s lonnie’s, but they’re both fucking horrible and both of those experiences affect Will,’ way. 

And again, exactly- Will believing that Mike is straight and fearing that he’s going to repeat the cycle of abuse and that he’s a predator. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that in S4 we got scenes of Jonathan being terrified that he was going to end up like Lonnie and repeat the cycle of abuse with his own family, and then in between that, got scenes of Will watching Mike at rink-o-mania. Jonathan and Will are both struggling with that fear of imitating their abuser, Will is watching Mike at rink-o-mania, thinking that Mike is straight, and feeling ashamed for his attraction to Mike and fearing that he may repeat the cycle of abuse. 

And this adds yet another heartbreaking layer to the airport hug- Will feeling like he overstepped boundaries by initiating the hug. Will is the one who opens up his arms, and Mike looks uncomfortable. Will, feeling like he’s overstepped boundaries without even realizing it and then panicking wondering if he’s overstepped other boundaries without noticing and this was just the first time that Mike ever did anything about it- especially when this would be the first time in Mike’s life that him and Will have been apart, so in Will’s mind, if Will was overstepping boundaries in his relationship with Mike previously, then Mike never would have known because he’s always been around Will. But once Mike had time away from Will, he may have realized that Will’s overstepping wasn’t normal, hence why Mike pulls away now when he didn’t pull away previously.

 (none of this is true of course, like will didn’t actually ever overstep, but looking at it from Will’s pov with that fear of repeating the cycle). 

oh my god @aemiron-main your recent posts have me thinking about the way Will's attraction to Mike is so non-sexual. Like in comparison to the way mike has the posters of the dragon and conan, the whole sauna thing, the way hes always staring at Will's lips. Mike displays physical attraction to boys, but Will doesn't. We don't ever see Will express his sexuality outside of his love for mike, and even then, it's never physical.

His experiences with Henry are csa coded but in the canon of the show, it's a monster, so his trauma isn't going to be centered around sex entirely. But if he really was assaulted by Lonnie, he's going to struggle with shame and separating his attraction from that abuse. Especially with him believing that Mike is straight and not at all reciprocal, he probably feels like an abuser himself even having those thoughts.
