#you take care too anon ^^

[cherubchoirs]

Please please share your thoughts on what it would take for V1 and V2 to settle down into rivalry or weird friendship instead of murder. Would Gabriel need to be an intermediate? Would they need to initially meet somewhere else, in a battle that isn't strictly against each other? Would V2 need to take initiative?

I adore your headcanons and your art, they always make my day brighter. Remember to hydrate, and take care of yourself. :)

uuwaahhhh thank you so much you're so sweet!! it always makes me so happy to hear that people enjoy my art and my ideas :') read more as always since i'm going to carry on lol

aaaaa evil siblings v1 and v2!! in this scenario i do think of gabriel as necessary and likely the one that initially finds v2 because v1 seeing it again would immediately cause a nonnegotiable fight regardless of how v2 approaches it. gabriel, on the other hand, knows nothing of v2 but would see that it's a very similar model to v1, and so would prefer to speak to it rather than engage it on sight (plus v2 is one of the few things in hell that doesn't instantly turn hostile upon seeing him, and gabe is likely much more contemplative at this point given the guilt he's working through - it would be nice not to choose killing for once) v2 isn't particularly interested in fighting an angel of his caliber either, not when it's likely gone through massive repairs at that point, is still learning some of its new parts, and wants to be damn sure it's as ready as it ever can be when it inevitably crosses paths with v1 again. so it's tired, it's angry, it's out of place and out of sorts, running on programming to see it through the depths of hell but mind so weighed down by what it's been through that it's in a peculiar state. it's so changed, not what was built so long ago as the perfect v model, some processors stuck on iterating over its need for revenge while others are busy contemplating what peace really is in hell, if there's any order at all to be achieved or if entropy is so far advanced that its directive is meaningless. the answers are obvious, but it continually rejects them and grows ever more exhausted as a result.

so gabriel isn't a welcome sight, but he doesn't attack and neither does v2...he would ask if it's "like v1", sparking two immediate thoughts in v2: it's still recognizable as a v model and gabriel knows v1, meaning he survived it too. if he did, could he have killed it? why doesn't he attack v2 then? the answers to its questions it could have never guessed when he tells it that they're...companions? he's hesitant with that label but v2 wouldn't blame him, what the fuck could that mean??? v1 doesn't make friends, doesn't have companions, v2 saw what its runaway programming has done to it. errored, but worse for it, worse than the war machine it should have been, a monster with an all-consuming mind that deconstructs you in seconds and strips you to raw data. it should have limits but it sees nothing but targets, but blood, but fun for it to have lest its mind rot to rust. and somehow gabriel acknowledges it without a fight, yet he's confident there's more to v1 than all that, that there is some kind of heart in it and v2 feels like it's going INSANE hearing that. gabriel's sure though, sure from what he's seen, felt, knows v1 has made immense effort to be gentle with him - and he sees v2 as its only family, something it should open up to as well so it may not be so alone.

it's a sentimental thought that's destroyed pretty quickly when v1 shows up because it could hear gabriel - it takes about 3 seconds for him to be scruffing both machines and holding them at arm's length so they don't IMMEDIATELY try to rip each other apart. it keeps them both relatively still, although v2 is hurling obscenities and v1 is signing a slew of taunts, so gabriel realizes he's got his work cut out for him…BUT he's determined to make it happen because this truly is v1's last connection to the world it came from. v1 doesn't see the point and v2 thinks it's impossible, but gabriel plays mediator just the same. i think ultimately that earnestness pushes v1 to make some effort if not just to make gabriel happy and for v2 it sees v1 doing so, sees it compromising its own objectives because it…cares. it KNOWS its code is getting super fucked up because of it, but it can actually observe it prioritizing something other than death and war, it's making deliberate decisions to accommodate someone else over itself. it's working hard it, fans blasting as it goes along with gabe's project, giving little affirmative chirps that it'll TRY it GUESSES if it's SO important to him. v2 absolutely teases it for it when it gets the chance, but if it can care so much about gabriel, maybe v2 can make its peace with it too. doesn't hurt that doing so gives its overly burdened mind a little respite too, to make peace after so long. it's not much, but it's a step away from entropy.

bruce and alfred: *thinking they managed to tag team jason into staying the night at the manor* 🤡

tim: *just existing as tantalizing eye candy for jason* 😒

jason: 😏

help i love this i'm cackling-

i think it's funnier if Tim also doesn't know and half the fun for Jason is getting to stare down Tim and make Tim wonder what on earth is going through Jason's head. he'd probably assume it's an intimidation tactic, or Jason thinking about all the ways he wants to kill Tim. it's delightful miscommunication of Tim being wary around Jason, always expecting a fight. and Jason damn well knows it, but he does nothing to correct Tim's assumption. He likes seeing Tim tense and ready to throw hands at a moment's notice. Jason just likes seeing what Tim is capable of, knowing how dangerous the little rich kid is. he wants to see how long he can stare before Tim breaks and asks him what his problem is.

and of course, Bruce, Alfred, and Dick are obvious. Cass is curious but not interfering because she just wants to see where this goes. Bruce is so caught up in the happiness of Jason finally playing nice for once pulling his punches and being willing to listen to Bruce that he's overlooking the obvious tension. Jason hasn't actually hurt Tim yet, so Bruce can't get mad for a little staring. he reminds Tim to just not sink to Jason's level.

when Tim does break and he does call Jason out for it, Jason just makes a lewd comment. just to throw Tim off and see how Tim reacts. it sends Tim sputtering and doubting Jason. he calls Jason's bluff and well. we all know how that ends.

Tbh i am not surprised that a person who openly talked about having drinking problems since 1d days, because of how crazy 1d worked has been agressive. What surprises me is people being surprised (they never seriously saw drunk person?). But i am also confused about this whole book. Apparently Maya said that that book is not fully bout Liam but compilation about her exes and some of the worst parts are not about him. But recently she said that the book is “ofc about him” so what is true then? Or did she meant it that ofc some parts are about him or that whole book is about him?

Sorry, just confused

I also am not surprised- we've learned so much more about the real stories of things and about the guys' actual lives over the last years, and the story that has unfolded around Liam has been totally consistent throughout if you've been following it, and so the information Maya is telling us is shocking and upsetting but not difficult to believe. I got an anon yesterday saying they were worried about getting similar revelations about the other boys, like "if Liam could be doing this we just don't know, any of them could", and while in a way that's always true I guess, anyone could be doing anything in private like... that doesn't really concern me. Because none of these Liam revelations are coming out of nowhere, there have been many MANY steps along the way leading us here if you've been watching, and he has talked openly about both his mental health struggles and his addiction issues. So to answer that anon... to find out something similar about Louis would in contrast contradict everything we know about him and no I'm not worried about it. Is he probably very irritating, absolutely, but an abuser or a loose cannon, well that news would shock me. But anyway as for the book I don't find it strange that she was nervous when it came out and treading lightly and later decided, fuck it. In the absolutely on point tiktok she dropped today (YES👏GIRL👏FUCKING TELL THEM👏) she even mentions attempts to keep her from publishing the book, presumably by Liam's team, that I am riveted by and cannot WAIT to hear more details about actually- like I said I don't find it at all strange that she was nervous and downplayed it a bit then. But if she says now that it's just about Liam, well, I would say it's been clear from the beginning that the book is their story. Maya herself brought up the parallel of songs being written about stuff and I think it's the same thing; it's true (she was in an abusive relationship that involved certain kinds of events) but maybe not 100% literal (I'm sure details were changed to make the story work, it's not like a word for word timeline of their interactions or whatever).

What did/do you like about Pharah?

Uh, gameplay-wise, I really love characters in shooters who rely on three-dimensional movement techs. Chaining together hover and jump to stay in the air for as long as possible and keep momentum is so satisfying, and picking enemies off from the sky made me feel like a bird of prey. I was a good Pharah main.

Story-wise, there unfortunately isn't much to canonically go off because Pharah is so underutilized and neglected. Her personality's pretty boilerplate "heroic hero" (she's literally inspired by Captain America).

But it's the crumbs/bits and pieces that I really latched onto. Pharah's a confirmed lesbian; her short story with Baptiste implies she harbors a crush on Mercy (fucking thank you.). She's biracial Egyptian/First Nations. She has major mommy issues, having grown up both admiring and resenting Ana. She's the bridge between Old Overwatch, inspired by the idealized heroes who surrounded her childhood, and New Overwatch. She's one of the only inter-generational characters in the cast; someone whose experiences span the gap, which is why I seriously believe Pharah would make a great main character.

There isn't much to go off of, though; she's a very uncomplicated character (she's a soldier for a private military corporation, lol.). But that just means she's a blank slate character, so I've seen fanfic writers run wild and create some really interesting takes on her. My favorite interpretation of her's a dense, herbo gym-bro type (a lot of her liens are about work outs, exercising, and playing sports) who's easily excitable under her seemingly self-serious, armored visage. We see how she tends to gloat and hype herself up when she's on a streak too, so Pharah definitely has a competitive and boastful side under her more professional and militant performance.

Now Mercy? Mercy is a real complex character.

Aww 🥺💘 dadmare taking care of his sons overgrown hamsters is just the most adorable thing ever! And your Art is so very lovely too!! 🥰 thank you for such cuteness. 💕

QUESTION!!!

How do you shade your sketches? Because I've always thought your sketches shaded were so aesthetically pleasing so I'm curious about your process?

Take care!!!

Hello and this is pretty much how I shade my sketches (sometimes I’ll mess with the layer settings for the “shadow” layer instead or as well).

Current Poly! KiriBaku brainrot (spoiler alert, it’s h*rny): watching Bakugou take Kiri’s cock for the first time from beneath the blonde, his own cock buried snugly in you, and everytime Kiri praises him or presses a soft kiss against the other man’s shoulder or spine, feeling Katsuki’s cock twitch in response.

Just watching the normally smug blonde’s brows twist up and mouth part in a breathy moan as he forces his fluttering lashes to stay open and look at you, utterly fucked out before Kiri is even halfway in

[castielsprostate]

like. it’s lovely that you’re enjoying the deadpool/wolverine shipping. but it’s still a marvel movie. i thought we were supposed to be boycotting marvel bc they have an israeli character?

hm. i already spoke about this but im just gonna be honest. you cannot deprive yourself of every. single. fucking. thing. and i am so fucking tired of policing people that are already doing shit for enjoying a single thing that isn't even involved with it.

i dont really talk a lot about what i do, because i dont think i have to justify how i live my life (something about good people dont have to brag about how good they are), but im already boycotting mcdonalds, im already boycotting starbucks, sodastream, burger king, phillips, airb&b, as much of nestle as possible, and every other company i can reasonably boycott. im donating to fundraisers and pleas for help. i donate to the pcrf. i donate to demining ukraine. i donate to greenpeace and a national cancer fund. i go to protests and demonstrations, i participate in community efforts, i share resources and fundraisers and verified information. im rallying for voters, i'm involved in my local community's green party. you dont see what i, or my friends, or other random internet users, are doing behind the scenes.

i am stretched fucking thin, my bank account is dwindling to keep up with everything. im going through insane health scares right now, chronic pain, anxiety so severe i want to fucking die, and a major chronic depressive episode to top it all off, i. am. exhausted.

you cannot deprive yourself of everything because when you do, there'll be nothing left of you. and who the fuck are you going to help then? the world is still happening, it's still turning despite the wars and genocides, despite the rising death toll of climate change, despite the threats to democracy. all we can do is put our effort where our mouth is, and take care of ourselves.

So damn mentally tired but I HAD to get this concept out, messy or not

Hancock and a mentally disabled partner/anon/insert

Of course he doesnt care about you being a bit of a handful. He actually thinks it's a good deal!

He's told you you cant help being the way you are, but you're always still guilty. Along with your rather quirky little habits, you feel like a burden and you feel as useless as a dry mop. Every time you speak of it though, he always reassures you.

[misc-obeyme]

Am i the only one who would feel insecure standing next to Barbatos? For example, if i was MC and in a relationship with an ancient powerful demon like Barbatos, i would feel so out of place, you know?

The way he’s showing/behaving himself in public with his calm demeanour and suave nature. I wouldn't know how to behave around him because I keep thinking: One wrong move and we might damage his public Apperance. How do I eat in front of him? How do i walk properly? How do I keep my posture straight? etc. (Like all these etiquette rules)

If he invited me to a fancy restaurant, and I, as Mc, would feel so uncomfortable eating at a fancy restaurant, I would be panicking on the inside, "Which fork do I use?" or "Do i have to place my napkin on my lap?" and so on.

Don't get me started with fancy balls/events. I don't know how to dance properly and I couldn't bear to step on his shoes.

Basically, what I'm trying to say is that Barbatos is so proper and perfect. I feel like I couldn't match his grace and perfection. I feel like I would have to force myself to be a "lady" in order to match him.

I might need Etiquette lessons 101 with Barbatos.

Okay so my response is basically two things.

First, I have always read Barb's character as being very indulgent when it comes to others. He has all those high standards for himself, but he doesn't necessarily feel that you need to follow them, too. I think if you decided you didn't want to do any of that, he would simply direct you to make the right choice in the moment. He would go out of his way to prevent any kind of embarrassment or situation where you don't know what to do. He wouldn't judge you for not knowing the proper etiquette. He would just want to spare you from being judged by others.

Second, I think if you wanted Etiquette 101 with Barb, he would be more than willing to teach you everything. He's done it before, with certain cards and events. He'll help you learn any dance you want to learn or teach you about what fork to use for what course.

So I don't think you'd need to worry about it, honestly. If you want to learn, he'll teach you. But he doesn't think you need to be perfect in that way for him. In fact, I kind of think he might feel bad if he thought that was the case.

Obviously if you're deliberately causing trouble, that's one thing. But if you're just not aware of stuff like how many prongs a shrimp fork has, that's not something he's going to judge you for. He's prim and proper, but that doesn't mean you have to be.

I think Barbatos would find it refreshing to be with someone who doesn't let all those rules of etiquette hold them back from being who they are.

I’m sorry you’ve had to deal with so much Iranian hate and drama <:[

oh anon. hate to break it to you (a lot of people make this mistake) but iran and iraq are two entirely separate nations.

and also i think reducing it to the words "hate and drama" kind of doesn't cover it, anon.

[twentyfivemiceinatrenchcoat]

ari…… the unrequited love ask :( your takes on nobara and gojo are so good!! And!! I agree so much I think nobara is really similar to teen gojo … maybe that’s why she’s my favourite but. How do you think they would feel if it was the other way around? You realising that they have feelings for u and then distancing urself…. Not because u don’t like them back!! Just because!! Im thinking reader has some sort of intimacy issues in this scenario? Or mayb just feels like they aren’t deserving of their love :((( But yeah,, angst where someone distances themselves my beloved <33 ^_^ I HOPE UR TAKING CARE OF URSELF N DRINKING WATER !! mwah mwah !! — stsg anon 💕💕

STSG ANONNNNNN 🥺🥺 if nobody got me i know you got me ……. i’m so happy you see the vision hehe . and YES YOU GET ITTT noba is my fav too!!!! she’s so lovely :(((((( need to write her a fic soon…. (<- drowning in wips </3)

BUT OKOK . them yearning for a reader with intimacy issues …. oh you know me so well. they both approach the situation very differently, and they’re both very keen on making you feel comfortable above all else :((((( although. well… i think nobara might be a bit more overwhelming to deal with….. i see her as being a lot more direct than gojo, so she’s very likely to just. waltz up to you and ask you what’s wrong 😭😭 and she’s so sincere that you can’t help but answer!! she just wants to make sure she didn’t do anything to upset you…. but of course she didn’t. you’re just. scared. of her feelings. and your feelings. and what it could all lead to… she might not completely understand (i feel like she’s the type who’s all in with her feelings for you once she gets past a stage of denial LMAO), but she’s determined to be there for you!!!!

as for gojo…. he observes you. silently. notes down all your habits and tells. he understands your predicament without you telling him, and allows you to take things at your own pace. he’s not gonna chase you down like nobara; he waits for you to come to him, and if you really aren’t showing any signs of doing so then he makes sure the confrontation feels more like a friendly chat. he tiptoes around the subject until you tell him yourself (with a bit of poking and prodding..) and then he’s just . :) <- kind smile . he understands. he really does. he’s absolutely terrified of intimacy too. he won’t tell you that, but he tells you that there isn’t any rush, and that he doesn’t mind waiting until you’re ready. and he really means it!!!

now…. when it comes to Actually being in a relationship with them…. they’re very similar 😭 they both ease you into the relationship, and both treat you with so much care!!! especially when it comes to showing affection and other things that might feel foreign to you at first. nobara casually links her arm with yours, gojo sneakily intertwines your fingers. and they both ask if you’re okay with it because they prioritize your comfort above all else….. 🥺🥺 though i Also feel like they’re both the type to push you out of your comfort zone a bit. just a little . nobara can’t really help herself sometimes (you give her cuteness aggression and she Needs to kiss you right now or else she’ll die), and gojo is a teacher at heart LMAO. he guides you into everything!! it’s a little infuriating because he’s so good at reassuring you? and it’s like . where did this come from. you were just whining for a bite of my crêpe. 🤨

in conclusion; they both treat you very, very well <3 honestly i feel like these two are the best candidates for a touch starved reader. because they’re both casual with skinship but observant enough to Know what your boundaries are!!! and with their bouts of clinginess it won’t take long for you to get used to their touch lmao .

[fatuismooches]

How well do you think the reader would be able to hide their injuries from the harbingers? Or rather, how long do you think they’d be able to hide it? The harbingers are bound to find out eventually — either on their own or some lowly Fatui agent tells them about reader’s condition — it’s just a matter of when.

I imagine it’d be even harder for fragile!reader to hide new injuries. The Harbingers are all so attentive towards them it’d be hard to hide anything at all, much less anything that involves reader’s condition :,))

I had this idea where reader is trying to hide a small gash on their palm from Dottore, and everything seems to be going really well because he hasn’t caught up yet, but then it’s time for a routine check, and when he discovers the new bandages on readers palm he’s like, “hmm, I don’t patching up their hand recently, so they must have done this themselves. But why didn’t they tell me about it? I could have helped!” and then he tenderly applies soothing salves and re-wraps their hand, but not before making reader promise not to hide any injuries from him in the future

Not well or long at all I'm afraid. Being attentive and observant runs in their blood, they need to with their line of work. It's just a matter of their personality though... For example, when Scara notices something's off with you, he'll just pester you until you tell him, like 'hmph, just tell me already, i can already see this is going to affect our day' or 'stop being stubborn and let me help you idiot.' Overall once he figures out you're acting funny (which is pretty quick since once he's in love he notices things about you easily) he'll find out about your injury quickly and then get mad at you for hiding it 🫠 but not in a truly mad way, just going off about how you were dumb to do that, the injury could have gotten worse, etc. He's just a worried bb. Arlecchino is kind of similar, but not in the loud pestering way... she's quiet herself but that makes her be observant of you and your mannerisms ten times more. And as soon as her hawk eyes notice sometimes off (once again quickly because literally nothing gets past her in general) she'll just sit you down and request for you to explain to her what's wrong, probably won't let you leave until you come clean 😭 As for Columbina she finds out on accident. She always loves to drape and cling to your body so one day she just places weight on your injury and you groan a bit at the pressure... and well you've just blown it since now she definitely knows.

Pantalone is also the kind of guy to notice right away and ask you if everything is alright. If you lie he'll just smile and nod but then catch you in the act of changing bandages or in pain... making you want to disappear into nothing because wow that's kinda embarrassing. He'd gently chide you for trying to hide these kinds of things for him (there's nothing to be embarrassed of he says, you only deserve the absolute best) and make sure you get proper care asap. I feel like Capitano is the kind of guy to always be scrutinizing your body for even the tiniest of wounds, just because you're super tiny compared to him and he thinks you're hella fragile 😭 He's always worried something is going to happen to you (he's losing his mind over a papercut, i can't imagine an actual injury) so again... he's noticing very fast lol. La Signora is similar in always looking and taking care of your body, mostly because of all the skincare and beauty routines she helps you with almost every night so erm... good luck on trying to hide that from her! At least you're getting the most high-quality treatment and massage from her later, also a lecture on how you should be more careful with yourself.

I think maybe Pierro would take the longest to notice, only because he's swamped with work and doesn't get to see you too often. But sometimes you'd come to visit him in his office until you stop doing that so he gets a bit worried for you. When he sends an agent to check on you he honestly feels pretty terrible that you got hurt and he didn't even know about it... or could protect you. Sandrone too, sometimes she gets so involved and into her machinery and lab work she doesn't notice the stuff you do. Until one of her little machines pulls at her dress and won't stop nudging her in your direction, and that's when she takes a closer look at you and realizes you're not in the best of shape.

For Childe I think he'll notice something is off but won't press it until you're ready, he understands that you have some things you want to keep private. But if you exhibit a few signs of pain in front of him he'll quickly connect the dots because he himself tends to hide injuries from you so you don't worry. Though he's used to dealing with toughies (his siblings would get hurt and then try to hide it from him and end up crying in the end too) he would firmly yet gently lecture you about how serious injuries can become and you need to get help, whether by him or someone else. Seeing you hurt also hurts him especially, he should be the one getting injured not you. Well for Papanella of course you are like his child so he always has people watching you jump all over the place so he will be the first person to approach you and (lovingly) scold you for your injury.

And well Dottore... perhaps the quickest because not only is he a doctor but he also has a dozen other versions of him running around checking on your condition 24/7... ALSO SCREAMING THAT IDEA W DOTTORE IS SO FREAKING CUTE. The only way you'd get away with it is not seeing him for a few days... but even then when he sees you again he immediately notices the wrapped hand and is like ??? When and how and why did this happen and why was he not notified? He's a bit taken aback since he's always updated on your condition, with your health he needs to be. At the same time, he's like, kinda impressed that you managed to get that bandaged all by yourself without him or his clones noticing... did you really not want him to know that badly? Obviously, he's gonna interrogate you on the injury 😭 he's not exactly mad at you... just upset that you hid it from him... your body is fragile and not in the best of state, you need medical treatment even for the littlest of things.

After he does all of his doctor stuff, he lectures you on why you can't hide injuries from him and how it's simply not good for you, to which you confess you hate bothering him for tiny things like this. That most people would just slap a bandaid on it and call it a day, it wouldn't affect them, but it hurts you much more than that, which just... makes you feel terrible. To that he remains quiet for a bit, then puts you in his lap to reassure you with sternness and a touch of gentleness, firmly saying he will always want to attend to you, he wants to know about every single thing that happens to you. Having you in pain makes him feel the foreign feeling too. (When that's over you ask him to kiss it better, he rolls his eyes but when you're asleep he does it anyway)

It also depends on how well you hide your pain from your injury... even if you don't show any reactions outwardly in pain the Harbingers will notice if you have a bruise or cut on your body since they have every detail of your body memorized... they're obsessed with you like that. So... final verdict, it'll be quick for all of them lol

[unknownarmageddon]

Do you think that Cross likes flowers? Do you think that the first time he sees them he's revolted? Because the colors are so imperfect it makes him want to throw up? Do you think he cries when he sees them a second time when he realizes that they're beautiful? Do you think he starts to grow flowers in his room? Do you think maybe one day one of Killer's cats breaks his little pot of flowers, the color he was never allowed to have, and he cries pitifully over that loss? Do you think Killer feels bad but he doesn't know how to apologize so instead he leaves him another little pot of flowers by his door (like a cat) without telling him it was him?

you can’t do this to me
