Dead Beat
Except not actually Dead Beat because it's just a recap of what Green has read so far. Dead Beat pt 0?
Green: god at first I was joking but I just started reading more Dresden Files and Butters is like "Harry I didn't know you were living with a male lover" and Harry just says he's not gay a couple times and makes zero effort to explain that Thomas is his brother?
Orange: well it'd be hell to admit that when the white council freakin hates the vamp
Orange: hate the vamp, slay the vamp
Orange: do not befriend the vamp
Orange: do not hAVE KIDS WITH THE VAMP
Green: oh yeah I guess
Orange: but like
Orange: only half siblings sooooOOoo
Orange: it'd still be verboten due to one of them being a VAMP
Green: mhm
Green: in his defense, white is like the least-evil type of VAMP
Orange:i mean
Orange: you- you do know what goes down in traditional white vamp society right
Green: fucked up shit, yeah
Orange: they have white vamp privilege for sure, what with all the slaves and the eating
Green: but, red vamps are like, automatically evil, right?
Green: and same with black?
Orange: i mean there might be like, one good one
Green: and white ones are just tempted to do evil things
Orange: there are also daywalkers for red vamp society?
Green: daywalkers?
Orange: i think?
Orange: they might be called something else, but they have the same vibe
Green: do you mean the almost-vamps like susan?
Orange: they're like good red vamps who don't fully turn because they refuse to kill
Green: yeah!
Orange: wait
Orange: where are you at
Orange: you know about suzie
Green: the book after he finds out Thomas is his borther, I think
Green: or maybe 2 books after
Orange: but how do y
Orange: d
Orange: did the reveal of her being a failed red vamp come much earlier than i thought....
Orange: hmmmmmmmmmmmm
Green: wayyy earlier, I think
Orange: hmMMmMMmmMMMm
Orange: man i can't say anything can i
Orange: shoot
Orange: gosh darn it
Orange: AND THERE'S SOME OF THE BEST STUFF
Orange: HUAERGH
Orange: like there's this whole thing
Orange: earlier
Green: so, here's what I know about susan
Orange: that was post-harry-and-susan i think
Orange: oh let me know what you know yes
Green: she used to be an investigative reporty for whom harry was really horny, and also perpetually aggravated by
Orange: absolutely
Green: bc she kept showing up to do interview or w/e
Green: and they had a couple dates, I think? Which harry sometimes skipped
Green: due to wizard shit
Orange: gotta love wizard shit
Orange: some magical stuff that
Green: anyways, Susan invited herself along as harry's +1 to a big vamparty
Green: during which a lot of shit went down
Orange: wait he INVITED SUSAN TO THAT
Green: harry got a grave, some wizards who I've just found out are on the white council gave the vamps a sword
Orange: oh she invited herself
Green: or, wait
Green: he invited his paladin friend, and susan SNUCK IN
Orange: MICHAEL
Orange: IS MY FAVORITE BOY
Green: michael is such a good boy
Green: I love his whole "constantly in the right place at the right time" bit
Orange: if only he was gay with harry, like, this harry guy needs to get laid somehow right
Green: lol right
Orange: but michael is way too good for him so idk
Green: which brings us back to the party
Orange: and so the Celibacy Saga continues
Green: the vamps tried to destroy the magic sword, making harry and michael try and stop them, and one thing led to another, and he started a war and killed a bunch of civilians (but only probably) and susan got envampired
Orange: ehehehahaha
Green: a book or two later, susan turns up and she's like "I'm only a half-vampire because I haven't killed anyone; I've been doing investigative reporting on some vamps in south america trying to stop them" and he's like "cool, let's bone" and they have really kinky vampire sex and solve some mysteries together, and then she's like "I can't be around you because I get really horny" or something like that so she leaves forever
Orange: ohhhh
Green: it might've been a slavic country and not south american?
Green: or maybe central american?
Green: who knows
Green: not me
Orange: and that ends the first celibacy saga, but one probably should consider the rule of threes...
Orange: maybe there will be three celibacy sagas
Green: in the book I'm reading now he has a date
Orange: i hope so, harry needs to be perpetually scuffed and frustrated
Orange: gosh darnit
Orange: haarrryyy, stop being around girls for like 10 books for me
Green: but yeah I'm betting his date is a necromancer, or possibly someone who will die before they can bang
Orange: ohohohoho
Orange: who is this man's date
...To be continued!

If you haven't already, I'd love to see your take on Resplendent Eirika. Eirika is my favorite FE character and when they released her resplendent, i caved and bought FEH pass. It's still my favorite art in the game, though a few other characters have come really close (Ascended Eir is top freakin tier too)
You'll like my opinions on Ascended Eirika then, because I think she's probably one of the best Ljosalfheimr Resplendent alongside Celica.
Resplendent Eirika, drawn by Saori Toyota:
Tumblr media
Incorporation is so incredible on Eirika's outfit. Saori really focused on giving Eirika Ljosalfheimr garb rather than just slapping Ljosalfheimr themes onto her OG outfit which, mind you, had armor pieces and a cape; given that those clash poorly, it's clear that Saori wanted to make sure that the overall theme didn't get lost. The arm pieces, gauntlets, and chest piece all look textured like they're made of flowers, and the butterfly motifs also blend in well. And can I just say that this is perhaps the most colorful Ljosalfheimr Resplendent? Blues, pinks, oranges, even a little hint of green in her hair flowers... This is some next level designing. I will say minor nitpick-wise that the butterfly wings don't stand out as much due to her hair, but it's still an amazing outfit.
I've already rated Saori Toyota as an artist on here, but I'll re-clarify: Saori Toyota's art is amazing in all fields. I respect Asatani Tomoyo and Wada Sachiko, but Saori is Eirika's best artist so far.
I think Ljosalfheimr was a good pick for Eirika, and I can't imagine any other theme that would really fit. Much like Celica, Eirika's a pacifist by nature.
Resplendent Eirika's easily 10/10 and another good example of designing a Resplendent outfit.

Yesterday I finally beat my first survivor save (30 hours or smh) yay, so I wanted to make the tierlist (I did cheat and unlock the Outer Expanse without completing Gourmand, but that just because I don`t like the ascension ending)
The Tier List:
S:Slugkitty (obviously, they are wonderful, the pups especially), Scavs (love how expressive they are, I always collected and gave them pearls so had no troubles with them ever (apparently my world rep was 100, which I learned at the very end because I discovered the dev tools)), White and Green lizords (had great experience with both, greens are too dumb to be troube after the first couple of hours and are adorably lazy, Whites were a huge help to me, I accidentaly tamed one in Chimney (best region) after saving it from a vulture and it was dilligently following me around, he was only trouble when there were scavs in the room (he tried to eat them), I farmed karma to go into Sky Islands (second best region) with his help, and at the Wall I fed a white once (....I had a very bad absolutely no good miserable time climbing up and was about to quit the game, so I decided to make life a little easier and cheat to countinue playing for the good parts of it, so I held a dropwig in place with dev tools to kill it and feed a white, I wanted to at least have a companion around for this horrible climb, but it was not enough to tame him and the dropwig never respawned) and all the other whites up the Wall became friendly and ignored me (right untill I found a slugpup, then they tried to eat us once again). Wormy worms are very fun, they are self-explanatory.
Okay list:..pretty self-explanatory. The pop bugs are annoying but in an endearing way, vulture grubs are very multi-purposed so they are always useful, pole plants are just great design of both environment and enemy deisgn, deer... the less said about them, the better, they are majestic when they actually work though. Never met a Black liz in my playthrough, but I love their whiskers, and I had an okay time with Oranges because, on one hand I somehow gained a 80 rep with lizords in Sky Islands so they all ignored me and were my friends, on the other hand I tried to climb up the Wall and that one room in the Fields through their nests and that was a horrible, very bad absolutely miserable time, partially because of the camera movement around the rooms
(BTW both nests are easily avoidable - there are climby worms a couple of rooms down and to the right from the shelter in the Wall so you don`t need to go trough the nest to climb higher, and in the Fields there are a lot of small centipedes you can kill, attract the lizord attention and throw centipedes as bait)
Caramel lizards thought be here too, I mostly avoided them, but ther jumping kept me on my toes, I love their 6 legs)
Kill on sight: I freakin hate squidcadas, they are horrible and all deserve to be fed to lizords (...probably this is the mentality that got me the 90 liz rep in the Islands and an outlaw passage). Same with the vultures - the bastards deserve each and every embarassing death ever (one died to the grass in the Fields, it was very satisfying to see;
the first time I climbed the Chimney I had Somehow unmasked two vultures, but had absolutely no skill to kill them, the bastards dove down on me each chance they got, I never managed to kill them)
I mostly avoided the regions with centipedes so never had much trouble with them, if anything the flying ones were extremely easy to kill even with my combat-avoiding playstyle. Hate the dropwigs because I met exactly (1) up the Wall and couldn`t reach and kill it to feed to lizord, and I had no skill to lure and kill it on the ground.
Go away: pretty self-explanatory I think, somehow pink and blue lizards gave me the most trouble. Saw spiders only twice on thrice and they never aggroed on me which, thank you game.
I am not a coward and never met these horrors and hopefully never will: oh boy, here are the horrors I have heard about but thankfully never encountered myself (except safari/sandbox shenanigans). Here are all the Reds, King Vulture, Leviathans (never went to the Shoreline), Long Legs (never went through the Garbage or the Rot), Miros chickens (never went to the Citadel, by looking throught the videos I thought the bastards have auto-rifles for legs, I`m still not convinced they dont), haven not encountered the Strawberry lizs
and that`s my first Survivor playthrough to the Outer Expanse ending (unlocked through cheats) with a slugpup I picked up at the Wall and showed to Pebbles.
Tumblr media
I adore how you can see the actual wall barricading the Fields, Outskirts and the looming Wall, and I believe the massive structures in the background are Pebbles and Moon`s cities? Magnificent shot in either way.

Here are my headcanons for some PJO character's favorite dessert flavors, some of them I've thought out, some of them are just based on vibes.
Annabeth: Strawberry, because nostalgia for CHB's strawberry fields, and peppermint, because peppermint is a natural bug repellent and is especially effective against spiders, so her subconscious associates the scent and taste of peppermint with safety.
Frank: Orange and mango. He just radiates those vibes, and you can't tell me otherwise (also, can we talk about that time everyone went out for ice cream and he just had a freakin apple because I think that was a little mean-spirited, like damn at least offer to get him a slushie or something)
Hazel: Caramel. I think she'd like sweet potato pie and gingerbread a lot, too. And not the hard stale gingerbread you make houses out of, but good, soft, chewy gingerbread. She also strikes me as a root beer or cream soda kind of girl, definitely worships at the altar of the PSL, and we love her for it.
Jason: Green apple and lemon lime. Refreshing and simple if not a tad basic, just like him. Also peach, because he eats those brownies with peach preserves. On the subject of chocolate, I think he's the kind of guy to not go for it normally unless there's something to tamp the taste down a little (like the peach preserves) because he was raised by wolves, and even though he knows nothing bad is gonna happen if he eats chocolate because he's not a wolf, he still isn't too keen on it by itself.
Leo: Chocolate (I think this is actually canon, it's at least canon that he prefers hot chocolate over coffee), also cinnamon flavored anything, not just because cinnamon = fire in my head, but also as like, a nostalgia sort of thing because a lot of Mexican desserts have cinnamon in them.
Nico: This is gonna be controversial, but I'm gonna say black licorice. Also adores caramel just like his sister, as well as chocolate (but only the very dark stuff), cream cheese, coffee flavored anything, and hazelnut flavored stuff too, because it reminds him of his sister. Like, he's always got a little hazelnut brittle in his bag, puts hazelnut creamer in his coffee (when he stops drinking it black out of a desire to look tough and manly, that is), he's a little obsessed but that's ok. One last thing, y'know how everyone thinks of McDonalds as one of his comfort foods? Well, so are oatmeal cream pies. In fact, I like to think that's what ambrosia tastes like to him now.
Percy: I mean it's pretty much established that he's going after whatever's colored blue, and I also think cookie dough ice cream is an automatic yes for him. This isn't very hard.
Piper: Marshmallows, and oddly enough, lemon lavender flavored anything. Also watermelon juice, but not watermelon candy because it dries out her mouth.
Reyna: I don't think she's the type to indulge her sweet tooth very often, but when she does, you bet your sweet ass it's those queen anne chocolate coated cherries that look really fancy but you can get them at pretty much any CVS.

stupid dream i had last night
for some reason I was attending the world premiere of Spider-Man 4 with Tobey Maguire. the only part i could remember was the last half of the movie, except i clearly remember some really freakin wild stuff
FIRST OF ALL
donald. FREAKING. TRUMP. was the villain. like, it was straight up donald trump playing himself, and he was a HELLA convincing villain. he killed the role like willem dafoe playing green goblin.
anyways, peter and mj were finally married, and they were shown to be much older. They also had a kid, which was mayday parker, spider-girl. this had me ECSTATIC, i freakin love spider-girl. so basically, the only part that i could remember was the third act and the climax.
essentially, i think trump wanted to destroy humanity?? idk. and peter and mayday were both suited up and mj was there too but they were surrounded by soldiers. trump was monologuing and then mj was about to be killed. before the gunshots can hit her though, mayday sacrifices herself and she gets SUPER bloodied up, like its crazy and i think her hand fell off too. she ends up dying, which enrages peter, and he fights donald trump. so during the scuffle, mj finds a glowing metal barrel. she opens it and finds a tiny orange umbrella octopus.
I CAUGHT THAT UMBRELLA OCTOPUS IN ANIMAL CROSSING LIKE, 3-4 HOURS BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP BY THE WAY.
anyways, mj uses the umbrella octo and places it on maydays (really freaking bloody) body, which raises her body, makes it glow, and she is 100% healed and alive. then after winning, peter and the two escape a blowing up (alchemax?) facility, then the movie ended.
IT DOESNT END THERE, OH NONONONONONONONONOOOOOO
there was a DINNER. and all i could say in response to the cinema
was
FREAKING
"hello, peter! welcome to fortnite!"
WHICH WAS APPARENTLY A LINE IN THE MOVIE?!?!?
IDK ANYMOREEEEE

Honestly this job has been a blessing for me. I know a lot of people shit on this company and job, and i get it, but its been a great experience for me so far. I'm thriving in it. I love selling games, i love organizing, i like my coworkers, i just really love my job. I dont dread going in to work at all. I dont feel anxiety for it. Thats the wildest thing to me. I just enjoy my time there.
I've been here two months, and it feels like its been longer than that. Partly cause the manager that hired me robbed the store blind and flabberghasted everyone. Like, he easily got away with 30,000 in deposits and merchandise. It was insane. Me and another co-worker stepped up to take care of the store and deal with the fallout. And we did really well!
She got promoted to manager, as a trial, and im really pleased for her. I wasnt considered afterall cause i was still too new to the company, which is totally understandable. That was the only issue. But that said, everyone says that i'll prolly move up into a manager position oncd i get some of my metrics up, and that - im not worried about. I learn frighteningly quick in most things. The only thing i learn at a somewhat normal pace is dealing with people and upselling stuff - and for being there 2 months, my numbers are pretty decent. So im not worried. The District's manager coach is extremely impressed with me and keeps saying so lol. He and I get along really well and he's fun to work with.
As a result of the previous manager's robbery, the four of us kinda bonded lol. We all play minecraft together and its fun. Im at least 7 years older than the rest of them so they've all kinda been looking up to me for advice about work things and dealing with people and its precious. I just want to adopt the three of them, they're too adorable. We act like a really good team and i think there's a lot of respect between the four of us.
Halloween is coming up in a couple of days and im so freakin excited. Its a short work day so i'll be working that day myself and i cant wait! I'm going to dress up as Link from TOTK. Its going to be great - i found a really nice costume. Tomorrow (or today rather since its past midnight lmao) i'm wearing a Witchy Vibes outfit. Im going to see if i can stop by target and get a witchy hat, before work. My outfit is so stinking cute. I got this deep purple/indigo Iridescent blouse, black lacy shorts, and orange/black striped socks. With black boots. So im going to wear acid green eyeshadow to complete the garish halloween look.
My coworkers say i look just like a quirky art or music teacher and i swear, no higher compliment has been paid to my style. I love looking kooky and cute like that.
So yeah, i love it here and im hsving a good time. I dont hate my life and i dont feel constant dread and anxiety running after me. I feel good.

Makeup for Magick/Ritual p7: Samhain
LETS PRETEND THESE LAST TWO AREN'T HORRENDOUSLY PATHETICALLY LATE, OKAY??? OKAY!!!
Tumblr media
Obviously these are the original pictures from last year, so I’ll mention any new releases that have popped up since then that I think fit (that I have). So, let’s get into it!
According to my personal notes, colors associated with Samhain are:
Black
Orange
Red
Brown
Gold
Silver
Bronze
Yellow
Indigo
White
Golden
Yellow
Purple
And I, personally, have included some greens in the palette. Both for usual spooky season reasons (which I still celebrate because I love it, and it’s a way to honor my papa since he was super festive at every holiday) and because we’ve got green pumpkins and gourds, as well as some green leaves that are holding in for dear life in the trees. So it should be included.
First up: Juvia’s Place
Tumblr media
The Violets: The veil between the world of the living and the dead is at it’s thinnest at Samhain, so it’s the perfect time for all kinds of divination and spirit communication. Psychic abilities seem to be stronger around this time of year and people tend to have more paranormal experiences, as well. Colors like purple, indigo and silver are often associated with intuition and psychic ability, so this is a good palette to reach for if you want to lean in to the uptick of psychic energy.
The Tribe: Oranges and greens, pumpkins and changing leaves. If you want your look to reflect what nature is doing, this palette has a great color story for it.
The Festival: Early on in the creation of this makeup series, I decided this palette was going to be in the Samhain post, primarily because of the red and metallic black. But it’s also has your oranges and golds.
Afrique: I put this palette on the list for the deeper reds, green, purple and gold.
The Saharan: This palette’s on the list for the black and the oranges, basically.
Next, Give Me Glow and Shroud Cosmetics…
Tumblr media
GMG Juicy Olive Palette: A palette for more murky olive greens.
GMG Grunge Palette: This is for the darker purple, brown and black mattes. The original reason I wanted this palette so bad was for all the nice deepening shades.
SC Spooky Cute Palette: Other than the black, the pastel shades are good for blending out the edges of more colorful looks. That’s it. That’s why it’s on the list.
SC Arcana Palette: Arcane’s dark jewel and muted color tones work really well for the sabbat in general. Some of the colors are more muted in person than they are in the picture, but in a good way. Maybe “murkier” is a better word for it? I dunno… Granted, this one is based more on the “sitting at an altar/grave, communing with the dead, burning candles and incense” vibes it gives off when I look at it. So… Plus they spell “Altar” right, which a bunch of witches online tend to fuck up regularly, so props for that.
SC x Beautbean It’s Freakin’ Bats Palette: This one’s really cute for Halloween, what with the theming and references, and the Sam shade is so unique in my collection. For Samhain, however, the focus is on the purples for a intuition and psychic ability boost.
Next is Urban Decay and Kristen Leigh Cosmetics. Because of the whole supporting Putin situation, I’ll be skipping over ABH for the foreseeable future. Instead we’ll talk about a palette from Unearthly Cosmetics (formerly Alien Cosmetics) that I bought this past year that I think fits.
Tumblr media
UD Born to Run Palette: Like at Mabon, the fall vibes of this palette live on. The black, dark grey and murky purple, orange, brown and bronze shades lends itself to this darker tone of year.
KLC Autumn Vibes Palette: Undeniably a companion palette since it’s four metallic/ duochrome shades. If you’re going for a late-fall nature focus, any of these will would work.
UC Poison Apple Palette (new, not pictured): At Samhain, apples are used for divination and as offerings to our beloved dead. This palette, from the mattes to the duochromes, embody this sacred fruit perfectly. It also works great for Mabon.
Haven’t said this in a while. Time for our lord and savior, Colourpop!
Tumblr media
Blowing’ Smoke: The color black is associated with death, the dark and cold night (growing longer until Yule) and protection; grey is associated with divination, intuition, spirit and ancestor communication, death and the underworld; and silver is associated with protection and intuition/psychic ability. So, a good color story to work with at Samhain. If you’re new to makeup, go in slowly with black eyeshadow. That ish can go from 0 to 60 in a blink.
Orange You Glad?: Specifically for the two darker mattes. And say it with me! Fuck pressed glitter! Uhg, that could have been such a beautiful duochrome!
Main Squeeze: Again, this one is specifically for the darker blood red shades on the bottom row.
It’s My Pleasure: A decent purple palette with a few different purple tones in the shimmers to work with.
Yes, Please!: While not super deep, the OG Colourpop palette is the “work appropriate” red-orange-yellow Samhain palette.
Whatever: Again, fuck pressed glitter. But the reds and browns are nice and deep, and with the orangey-bronze shade “Not OK”, it mimics the majority of leaves on the trees this late in autumn. Just more glam.
On to BH Cosmetics. I haven’t really bought anything from them since they were bought out by Makeup Revolution. So I don’t know if the formula’s changed at all. I do know that a good chunk of their palettes got discontinued, though.
Tumblr media
Poison Shock Scorpion Sting: I’d bring in the dark orange matte from Orange You Glad?, since the three mattes don’t go as deep. Metallic wise, you have a lot of options for whatever leaf or pumpkin you’re trying to replicate.
Poison Shock Nightshade: Again, the mattes don’t go as deep as I’d like, but it still works nicely.
Poison Shock Venom: The Venom shades can be used similarly to Blowin’ Smoke from CP. it just has one or two more purpley shades to work with
Zodiac: All of the mattes besides the Leo and Virgo mattes are great purple/black/browns to use. The baked metallics that would work for Samhain are Cancer, Gemini, Pisces, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Libra.
Love in London: I chose this specifically for the matte black, a couple of the matte browns, and the purple, dark grey and gold metallics. Definitely another office appropriate palette choices.
Passion in Paris: Strictly for the reds, purples and greys. Though this is more “wintery”.
Bringing up the rear, we have the single shadows! Starting with Kristen Leigh Cosmetics, Terra Moons, and Shroud.
Tumblr media
KLC Halloween Havoc Collection:
Haunted: an orange to gold iridescent duochrome highlighter with gold to green to silver blue color shifts.
Jack-O-Lantern: a pumpkin orange multidimensional eyeshadow with gold to green to silver blue color shifts.
Potion: a light leafy green duochrome eyeshadow with lots of iridescent green duochrome sparkles.
Sorcery: a cool toned dark brown to purple duochrome, multidimensional eyeshadow with purple to pink to blue to gold and slight orange shifts depending on the lighting and angles.
Terra Moons:
Hurricane: a warm-toned medium-dark orange metallic.
Spiked: a warm, dark red.
Bonfire: a duochrome orange-red shimmer.
Martian: a duochrome green, gold and reddish shimmer.
Shroud:
World Eater: an intense true red metallic shimmer.
Ignite: a fiery copper metallic.
Vigil: a golden yellow metallic.
Enigma: a mid tone purple with an icy blue shift.
Pillow Talk: a deep purple with an intense gold shimmering reflect.
Scrumptious: a coral red shimmer with an intense gold shimmering reflect.
Artifact: a grungy olive green metallic with a slight golden shift.
Nightsong: a deep metallic blue with a black base.
Next, Looxi Beauty.
Tumblr media
Jelly: a blue purple duochrome.
Gator: a missy green with shifts of brown and pale yellow.
Adorbs!: a reddish bronze with shifts of gold and green.
Honey Pot: a golden orange with shifts of copper, yellow and purple.
Hocus Pocus: a purple shade with shifts of olive green.
Poppy: a deep, dark metallic burgundy.
Follow Me: a vibrant orange gold shimmer.
Tricked: a vibrant golden yellow shimmer.
Poor Unfortunate Souls: a purple shimmer.
Forbidden Fruit: a bold metallic red shimmer.
Emerald: a burgundy with shifts of green, gold and copper.
The Monarch: a bronzed brown with shifts of rose and gold.
Juice: a deep wine red with shifts of brown, gold, and green.
Omega: a green metallic with shifts of teal, purple and dark blue.
Firefly: a red with with a copper/orange/gold shift.
Lady Luck: a bronze gold with shifts of green, red and brownish purple.
Starry Night: a mid-toned blue with a violet undertone.
Lagoon: a metallic, golden olive shimmer.
Spyro: a grape metallic
Coppa’ Feel: a bold, metallic copper with a hint of pink.
That’s What She Said: a golden metallic with slight hints of green.
Bonfire Babe: a vibrant fiery orange with shifts of yellow gold and pink.
Next to You: a deep purple with an electric blue shift.
For the Graham: a cinnamon brown with shifts of red, gold, and orange
And finally, Give Me Glow!
Tumblr media
Leggings: matte ultra black
Blackened Plum: deep smoky purple matte
Chili: deep rustic red-orange matte
TBT: deep burnt rustic orange matte
Toxic: vibrant deep true purple matte
Storm: a cool toned purple taupe metallic
Selfie: a warm toned medium-dark copper metallic
You’re Cheesy: a warm toned, light-medium orange metallic
Ultraviolence: a deep purple based violet metallic
Satellite: aluminum foil silver metallic
Halo: white with baby blue and gold shifts
Marshmallow: pure white matte
And with that, we’ve finished Samhain. Not much else to say except, if you have any ideas you’d like to add, please do!
Now on to the final sabbat: Yule!

MLQC Housemates with MC Having Toxic!Father
Tumblr media
AU: MC's Dad from the game is her stepfather who later became her adoptive dad so toxic!father is her birth father (I won't disrespect game PaPa) Game Dad is PaPa and Toxic!Father is Dad
TW: Angst, Toxicity, Blood, Asshole Parent
Victor - Red, Lucien - Purple, Gavin - Blue, Kiro - Orange, Shaw - Green, MC (You) - Pink
They were under the impression that your birth dad was the one you took over the company for
They were surprised to find out he was your stepfather that became your adoptive father after your mom passed away but they could tell you saw him as your true father
The few things you mentioned about your birth dad was he's alive, present in your life, and you send him money
"I wonder why Miss Chips doesn't say much about him."
"Probably just aren't as close."
When you told them your dad was coming to visit for a few days and probably staying over the boys were happy to show their hospitality considering this was your dad
They wanted to impress the love of their lives' father
Victor was pissed when he found out the guess room was being used as storage
Mainly Kiro, Shaw, and you had to clean and donate stuff under Victor's supervision since it was mainly your stuff you guys lost your dessert privileges for awhile
Everyone was so busy cleaning the house that they realized later that throughout the process you never spoke highly of your dad and seemed nervous
"I just been busy that's all. I'm totally fine!"
When they first met the guy he seemed to be an okay man, Kiro and you gave him a tour of the house, that's when Kiro realized such awkward tension you kept giving out as you and your dad talked but don't worry Kiro's an amazing talker!
All the boys came home and met your dad they chatted in the living room with a movie playing as the dinner feast was being prepared
You told Victor you would finish the rest of the meal preparation by yourself, he denied but gave in when you smiled at him that you wanted some alone time
The dad seemed to be okay who was tough man inside and out that had a lot of stories to tell and seemed to care about his daughter
Things began going downhill from there
You called everyone to eat and they sat down to enjoy the food as they talked about their day and get to know your dad
They would talk and that's when your dad's behavior became noticeable
He seemed to be "Mr. Know It All" when tried to tell Victor and Gavin on HOW TO DO THEIR OWN JOBS but also passive aggressive comments of him looking down on Kiro's idol profession
Victor made this guy freakin steak and this is how he is repaid by being told how to do his job from a guy who just watches videos on financial
Kiro and you are trying your best to shift the topic and keep the peace
Deeper into dinner your dad begins making jokes throughout about you being about your weight, the way you dress, how you use people
He antagonizes you and your parents a lot
"Hope this one has been growing vertically not horizontally."
"Getting another bite already. What's up, fatty?"
"My daughter doesn't care about me. She just uses me."
That was only a few out of the jokes he told and don't forget the inappropriate ones
Who cares if their jokes if they're antagonizing to someone and just plain mean and also your dad is the biggest one here who's eating the most
Trust me no one is laughing at them and you're trying to play it off but they can tell how hurt you are (can't take a hint that no one likes the "jokes")
"The puddings ready. You can have some right now."
"It's okay. I'm not hungry anymore. I'm going to bed now."
You are really hurting inside as you try walking away fast enough not be seen crying and not even hungry to eat pudding
Everyone is left there eating with this asshole, they just want to get this dinner over with
Gavin hates him more than anybody as not only the way he talks to you but how he's reminded of his own dad
When Shaw makes the same body "joke" to your dad, they have never seen a man get so aggressive so fast before
Once your dad is fed up with Shaw and goes storms off to the guest room is when they clean up fast to go check up on you
"Thanks for ending that dinner, Shaw. If you didn't get him mad, I would have."
"I don't care who he is. Glad that the asshole is gone."
"I can see why Miss Chips doesn't really interact with him much. Why doesn't she say something about it to him?"
"Many children with parents like that feel trapped due to feeling of being indebted to them. She could be acting that way in order to not escalate the situation."
"As much as we don't like the man, we have to be polite for the few days he will be here."
They all go to your room to see you laying down as you blow your runny nose in the dark
Kiro immediately jumps in bed to give you the biggest hug while the others soothe you until you're ready to talk
You mention how he's like this with the antagonizing, rude jokes, and his temper and it being the reason your mom divorced him
Everyones face scrunched with anger as you weren't looking at the thought that this was going on this entire time
For the next few days luckily you've been busy with work to be around him, he was also busy with seeing friends but it still didn't stop his behavior and jokes when no one was around
As much as you wanted to run away from the conversations you couldn't because you were scared of what would happen
It was until one day when Shaw came home before anyone else to hear really loud screaming from a man, he was about to rush to see what was happening until you walked past him
"Welcome home. I'm a-almost done... finishing lunch. Do you want to help out?"
He's never seen you like this with deep red eyes, cheeks tear stained, legs heavily shaking, and snot dripping down
You walked to the kitchen with Shaw trying to convince you to slow down as you weren't in the right state to be cooking
Shaw has never been in a situation like this before so he didn't know what exactly to do, he made the mistake to take his eyes off you to try and call one of the guys
The moment you yelped in pain he immediately dropped the phone, you had tried to cut something but your hands were shaking so much and eyes blurring with tears that you cut your hand pretty badly
Shaw hugged your shaking body tightly as you covered your mouth from sobbing, outside began to pour with rain with heavy thunder
"P-please don't tell my-my dad. Please don't tell him!"
You were carried to the closest bedroom and the farthest from the guest room (Gavin's), Shaw made sure to lock the door
Kiro then Gavin then Lucien came home one by one and immediately panic as they saw a cutting board along with a knife stained with a lot of blood
Shaw ushered everyone into the bedroom and have Lucien properly put what little gauze they had over your deep wound already cleaned with alcohol
Lucien: Please, buy more gauze when you get home. We need it immediately. We're all in Gavin's room.🦋
Victor: What happened? Hardly ever text each other. Almost home, I'll make a quick stop.🕰
When Victor immediately enter Gavin's room, Lucien practically yanked the gauze from his hands to wrap around your hand, it dripping with blood, Gavin wiping away your tears, and Kiro staring at his IPad screen with AirPods in
"What happened?"
"My-My dad got really mad when I-I told him I really didn't like his remarks. That I felt I w-was stepping on eggshells with him-him. He got really mad that I was being se-sensitive and ungrateful, I wasn't try-ing to."
The way you chocked out an explanation as tears poured from your eyes as your hands shook in fear and pain
Victor asked Shaw and Kiro to step outside the door for a moment, he wanted a better explanation
"I came home and heard full on screaming from her dad that I wasn't even close to where they were. That was only the end of the screaming I came home to. MC tried acting as if she was okay and went to continue making lunch. I took my eyes off her for a moment that she cut herself when her hands were shaking. She begged me not to tell that asshole."
"I have security camera footage of the screaming. It's...It's really bad. Miss Chips said that she really didn't want him in her life but was scared this would happen. She said this is common with him."
Kiro's IPad showed the whole incident how you expressing your hurt and discomfort caused your dad to go screaming at you at the top of his lungs as you stood there apologizing and shaking in fear
"FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU!!!"
"I'LL GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO CRY ABOUT!!"
The three's blood ran cold at listening to him screaming with you crying in the background
Everyone laid in bed with you as you rant your feelings, past traumas and they're shocked at the things they're hearing
"He once banged on my d-door with all his strength because...because he-he didn't like that I would close the door."
After you confirmed you no longer want your birth dad in your life and fell asleep, the five men stormed over to the guest room where your dad was
Gavin cop knocked banged on the door and believe me how furious they were to see your dad
Victor gave the most intimidating voice he's ever given full of assertion and anger when telling birth dad he needs to pack up because he is no longer welcome in this house or near you
They couldn't believe this man when he threw a tantrum saying it was just an argument...excuse me argument
"Arguments are a disagreement between two individuals. Not one screaming at the other as the individual stands there in fear."
This guy was really not leaving and even trying to get pass them to get to you
Before Gavin or anyone were on the brink of committing assault charge, Kiro used his evol which shocked them as Kiro hardly ever uses his
"I command you. All within my range of control belongs to me. You will now leave this house and never return. Do not contact any of us. You will also cut off all ties with your daughter, forget her contact info and address."
The man immediately packed up all his things in a hurry as he was under Kiro's evol, they could see in his eyes of him forgetting your info and the location of the house
Victor called an Uber to drive the man to be dropped off in the city, as the car drove away they knew you were finally free from the man
During the rain this man should be careful with lightning strikes as it doesn't choose it's victim...or does it?
You could finally feel at peace when deleting his info from your phone and you no longer sent him money

It's Heartbreak Or It's Love, There's No Such Thing As Halfway
Guy Gardner x Lantern!Reader
Word Count: 2.7K Warnings: Explicit Language, Angst, Death
Author's Note: Based on this ask right here that I finally managed to do! Enjoy my angsty story! -Thorne
**********************************************************************
Green Lanterns had a well-known reputation for being the worst luck bearers in the entire universe. Girlfriends stuffed in refrigerators, taken over by the embodied parasite of fear, family dying, personally dying, you name it, they’d been it, seen it, and felt it. Of course, the Four Corpsmen took that as a personal challenge to see who could have the worst luck amongst each other, and when Guy Gardner returned to Oa with a woman dressed in an orange exo-suit and bearing the Orange Lantern Corps symbol in tow, they decided that he had the worst luck.
Hal watched the woman poke around the room they’d all stepped into—and locked the doors—asking, “Where’d you find her?”
“I don’t know.” Guy said. “But she won’t leave me alone.”
“Why not?” Kyle piped in.
“Because she wants my ring.” He reached over and yanked the vase out of the woman’s hands. “No.”
“Mine.” She hissed, trying to take it back and he pointed at her.
“Do you want me to get out the leash again?”
Her face contorted and she went quiet, seeming to shrink on herself. “No.”
“Then behave.” Guy scowled, putting the vase back, then he looked at them. “See. This is what I’ve been dealing with for the past four days.”
“Can’t you just tell her to leave you alone?” John asked, carefully avoiding the woman as she walked behind them, knowing she was probably going for a ring.
“I did.” The Lantern retorted with a glower. “She won’t leave me alone.”
Hal waltzed right up to her, getting in her face. “Hey, you.”
She bared her teeth as if she were going to bite him and Guy griped, “No biting. We don’t bite each other.”
“Why won’t you leave our friend alone?” Hal asked and she pointed at Guy.
“Want the ring.”
“You can’t have my ring.” He shot back. “I need it.”
“Want it.”
“You can’t have it.”
“Not leaving,” she finalized, then her eyes widened, and she reached out, grabbing Hal’s wrist. “You have one too!”
The pilot was quick to yank his hand away before she could peel the ring from his finger. “No.” he warned. “We don’t take rings.”
“But I want one!” she bemoaned. “It’s pretty and I want it!”
Kyle all but collapsed on the floor in laughter. “Oh my God, we’re stuck with a gold digger. Hey, Hal, hide your wallet before she becomes another girlfriend.”
“Shut up,” he griped, and Guy shook his head.
“She’s not a girl. I don’t even know what she is.”
“What?” they all blurted out, glancing at him, then to her.
“Are you kidding me? I was on a planet that had no intelligent lifeforms. She just appeared out of nowhere and latched onto my arm.” He rolled his shoulder. “‘Bout yanked my freakin’ arm off trying to get the ring.”
“So…what is she—it?” Kyle asked, then he knelt beside her, watching curiously as she pried at one of the vents and stuck her hand inside, wiggling around for whatever she could find. “What are you?”
“Shax’ods.” She answered, then grunted when she found nothing in the vent, slinking to the next vent. “From Shaxodia.”
“That’s the planet I was on.” Guy murmured.
“Are Shaxiod’s like humans?” Kyle questioned.
She turned on him, hissing, “Shax’ods. Not Shaxiods.”
He flinched. “Sorry. Shax’ods. What exactly are they?”
“My kind,” she said, pulling open a drawer. “Shapeless. Colorless. Sentient.”
“If you’re supposed to be those, how’d you manage to become a human woman?” John inquired, regarding her as she pulled out what looked like coins and went through them, pocketing the shiniest ones.
“Wanted his ring. Couldn’t get it. Scanned it. Saw his memories. Took on image based on humans encountered.” She looked at Guy. “Can I have your ring?”
“No.” He grunted and she hissed darkly, going back to scrounging around the small drawer.
With her occupied for the moment, they huddled together, whispering fiercely. “What are we supposed to do about her?” Hal asked. “We can’t hurt her.”
“We can send her back to Larfleeze?” Kyle offered. “Isn’t he the boss of the Orange Lanterns?”
“There was only supposed to be one Orange Lantern because the greedy bastard sits on his pile of rings like Gollum.” Guy said, glancing up to see her fiddling with the door. “Where’d you get your power ring?” he called out, and her shoulders rose like she’d been caught stealing.
“Found it,” she answered. “All on my own.” She turned, meeting their eyes. “Hungry. Where is food?”
“We’ll eat later. Sit down in the chair over there.” When she scowled and didn’t move, he constructed a leash. “Do we have to—”
“No!” she shouted, prowling to the chair where she flopped down and tapped her foot obnoxiously.
“I thought Orange Lanterns were supposed to be mindless, greedy things. No coherent thoughts.” John observed her. “She’s intelligent and sentient, capable of listening to commands when someone tells her to do something.” He looked at them. “She’s different.”
Guy’s eyes narrowed. “Nice observation. Got any others?”
“Maybe we can help her get the ring off?” John offered.
***
Turns out trying to remove an Orange Lantern’s ring was like putting a cat in water. She fought tooth and nail against every construct and hand that came at her and refused to surrender her ring, even if they reasoned that she would be better without it. That ring wasn’t going anywhere from her hand, and she wasn’t leaving them anytime soon—she was their problem now.
But as the months went by, she became…less greedy, if it were believable. Her speech bettered too, now that she had to interact with humans all time, she picked up on their speech fairly quickly. She’d picked out a name for herself, “(Y/N)”—no one knew where she’d learned it, but she liked it and “it was hers”.
(Y/N) gained a few enemies within the Green Lantern Corps too. Not many people trusted her, and they had a fair reason—she couldn’t help the sticky fingers and more often than not, Guy had to drag her around and make her apologize whilst she returned the knickknacks she’d grabbed when they hadn’t been looking.
But she was a good fighter, and everyone was surprised when (Y/N)’d backed them up in a fight, though she fought savagely and with one purpose but to obtain whatever she wanted from their corpses. Guy spent a lot of time with her, working with her greed, training her to fight less savagely and use her head more.
And to their shock, she’d calmed down a bit, though she was still an Orange Lantern, and everyone knew it. Though they couldn’t deny that she’d wormed her way into their hearts with her easily annoyed spirit and character.
***
(Y/N) stomped into the med bay, plopping down on one of the treatment beds. “Heal me.”
Hal blinked, looking at her with confusion, one hand still scratching at the sheet of paper. “Excuse me?”
“Heal. Me.” She commanded. “I am sick and I need healing.”
“I’m not a doctor but I’ll do my best,” he replied, walking over. “What seems to be the problem?”
“This body reacts oddly,” (Y/N) answered. “The organs flutter and beat fast. I do not like it and I want it to stop.” Hal cocked a brow, reaching up to feel her throat. “What are you doing?” she accused, glaring at him.
He glared right back. “I’m trying to feel your lymph nodes, (Y/N). That’s how human doctors learn people are sick.” She eyed him, but let Hal continue, and he placed his pointer and ring at one side of her throat, his thumb on the other. Gently, he massaged up and down, then said, “Swallow for me.”
She did so and he frowned. “Nothing seems wrong.” He constructed a stethoscope, putting it on.
“What is that?” (Y/N) worried.
“Stethoscope. I can listen to your heart and other organs for that fluttering you’re talking about.” Hal’s brows furrowed and after a moment, he pulled away. “I don’t hear anything, (Y/N). Your heart is beating normally for someone in your condition.”
“And that is?” she asked.
“Healthy.”
Before she could speak, Guy burst through the doors and sprinted to a drawer. “Hi guys! Bye guys!” he disappeared as quickly as he’d come with a bunch of bandages in his arms.
“I don’t even want to know what that was—”
“The organs are fluttering!” (Y/N) shouted, grabbing the end of the stethoscope; she yanked Hal over and he jerked to his knees in front of her with a grunt, though he went still when he heard the rapid thumping from her chest. “You hear it!” she exclaimed with wide eyes. “See! I am sick!”
Hal gazed at her curiously, then reached up with a free hand, softly pressing his palm to her cheek. “What—what are you doing?”
He grinned. “You’re not sick, (Y/N).”
“I am!” she retorted. “These organs are beating rapidly, and I feel sick.”
“You’re in love.” He nodded his head to the doors. “And I’m going to guess that since Guy was the one that made your heart race, that he’s the one you’re in love with.”
(Y/N) went as still as a wooden board, eyes wide with shock, then she jerked up and away from him. “Do not tell a soul.”
“It’s not a bad—”
“NO ONE!” she bellowed. “TELL NO ONE!”
Hal raised his hands in defense. “Alright. I won’t tell anyone.”
She seemed flustered, scared and she spun on her heel, running for the doors.
***
And as the year stretched on, Hal realized that (Y/N)’s only other emotion than total greed, was love. She followed Guy around like a puppy, always handing him trinkets she had in her pockets, and if Hal didn’t feel such a pity for the hopeless woman, he would’ve found it endearing.
He also realized that she had no idea how to express love besides using her greed. And he only realized it when she’d shown up at his room in the middle of the Oa night and demanded he tell her how to show affection. He’d tried his best, having to bite back laughter at how her face pinched and she squirmed with discomfort at having to share her feelings and everything she had.
“Guy’s not…a typical…guy…you know?”
“No.”
“Okay, I could’ve phrased that better. Guy’s not impressed by words. He likes action. Actions speak louder than words to him.”
“Actions are inanimate. They do not speak.”
“Yeah, but…okay, say that you told Guy you liked his haircut.”
“I do.”
“I know you do, but you didn’t let me finish. If you told Guy, he’d probably brush it off. But! If you gave him a six back of beer, he’d thank you and crack one open right there.”
“So…I should find alcohol for him?”
“I mean it’s that or a playboy.”
“What is a playboy?”
“Just find alcohol.”
“…Where?”
“I’ll show you.”
And God, he wished he hadn’t because all she did was thrust the beer in Guy’s hands and stomp off, leaving his friend more confused than anything. Hal had pulled him aside the day after and explained the situation, even though he’d sworn not to. And when (Y/N) found out—and she only did because Guy distanced the two of them—she was not happy.
She was furious and cursing him in a language not even his ring could translate. (Y/N)’d screamed and cursed so much that Hal Jordan actually feared that he was going to be killed by her. That or she was going to become a Red Lantern, and he didn’t know what was worse. But when tears had fallen down her cheeks and she’d yelled, “It was not your right!” Hal felt terrible about opening his mouth.
And then when Guy had brought an old flame to a party, Hal watched (Y/N)’s emotions reach a boiling point and he’d narrowly managed to get her out of the room and to a distant field before she completely exploded. When she’d calmed though…it was a sorry sight to behold.
“My organs hurt.”
“Yeah, heartbreak’s a bitch.”
“My heart is not breaking.”
“It’s a figure of speech, (Y/N). It means you’re sad.”
“Oh…I see.”
“Yeah.”
“It is because I am an Orange Lantern, is it not?”
“I don’t think so. Guy’s just…not sharing your feelings.”
“His lover is pretty.”
“She is.”
“I want to be loved.”
“We all do. But there’s other fish in the sea.”
“What?”
“There’s someone else out there for you.”
“I want Guy. He…sees me.”
“He sees everybody. That’s why he’s a good friend.”
“Yes…a good…friend.”
***
Hal cursed, looking at Guy and (Y/N). “You two get back into space and see if you can find where that signal went. We’ll stay here and defend the territory.”
“Got it.” Guy answered, looking back at her. “Ready?”
“Yes.” They shot to the sky and burst through the atmosphere, ready to start scanning when Guy cursed, and she glanced back at him. “What is it?”
He didn’t get a single word out when the bright green ring suddenly went dead, and his suit faded. (Y/N)’s eyes went wide as Guy’s hands went to his throat, eyes going saucer wide, and she reached out, enveloping him in orange light.
Going to his knees, he hacked and grabbed his head. “Shit, my head.”
“Your ring is dead,” she observed. “I thought you charged it?”
“Forgot.” He shook his head. “We were so tired last night that I went to bed.” He looked up at her. “Can you call them?”
“Yes. Let me—”
Warning. Ring power low. Battery at two percent.
(Y/N)’s eyes shot to her ring; he caught it. “What? What’s wrong?”
“My ring is dying too.” She murmured, then glanced between the ring on her hand and Guy. “I have to choose.” Her head turned, eyes darting to the nearby planet. “It should have enough power to get you there before it dies.”
“What are you talking about?” Guy beat on the bubble he was encased in. “(Y/N), what are you doing?”
“…The right thing.” (Y/N) floated to the bubble, placing her palm to where his was. “I know why you never felt the same. I am…a monster. Consumed by greed.” She shook her head. “I cannot feel like humans do. I am broken…but you made me think it was possible. That I could be worthy of love.” Her eyes were watery. “Of your love, Guy.”
“(Y/N),” he breathed, and she pursed her lips.
“I want to be someone you can love. I want to be someone you smile when you think about, not be ashamed of.” Pulling back, she distanced herself. “I can change. I promise I can change. I can be more than my greed.”
She raised her hand again, commanding, “Take him to the surface. Low power mode. Only exo-suits, no powers.”
With a blink, the ring came off her finger and she fought to keep herself from yanking it out of the air and putting it back on; it flew through the bubble and slid onto Guy’s hand though he was the one fighting to keep it off.
“No! (Y/N) no! Take it back!”
She smiled as the suit started disappearing from her feet and sliding up Guy’s feet. “I am doing what you would do. I am saving you.”
“I would save us both!” he shouted, eyes terrified as the suit freed her hips. “Don’t do this!”
“I have to save you,” she comforted. “Even if I cannot save myself too.” (Y/N) searched his eyes. “Thank you for making me feel like I belonged, Guy Gardner.”
“(Y/N)!”
The exo-suit disappeared from her body and the bubble popped; Guy watched in horror as she tried to breathe in but without oxygen, she couldn’t. Moments passed but they felt like hours and her eyes found his, the corner of her mouth quirking up as she went still, a trail of blood freezing on her skin as it dripped from her nose.
And Guy shot to the surface of the planet, commanded by the Avarice Ring, screaming his throat hoarse.

hiya!!! mind writing a fern x gender neutral! reader scenario? maybe the reader is a wizard n they need to get some stuff from a dungeon, so fern comes with n they both have some fun moments together!! maybe its vault of bones styled? thank u!!! [also btw, the anon button is off!!]
Oh my goodness, I am so sorry! Anon feature is now switched on babes, so feel free to send in requests to my decrepit, dank and dusty inbox.
Anyways, here you go!! I hope you enjoy you freakin honey bun.
This work has vulgar language, moderate, nondescript violence and descriptions of menstruation and endometriosis. Dw, reader is still gender neutral.
Note: This and other works (unless directly specified) are to be as inclusive as possible. If there is any sort of undue coding for any race, gender or sexuality that has not been requested, please tell me! :)
Title: Dungeons and Fern
Considering how many things there were in Ooo, one would think that there could be a cure-all potion for cripplingly low self-esteem. Or, at least some sort of medication for said problem.
Alas, Glob was more detail oriented than goal oriented. You could see sentient mountains whining at violence and grow rock-scale skin from drinking gruel, but intrinsic personal problems? Those were still a mystery.
You wish you could give Fern a potion to make him happy. A tincture for all the wounds eyes cannot see. You feel like your boyfriend has done so much for you, and seeing your favorite grass man spiral does a number on your own self-esteem, to be honest.
Anyways, that's codependency for another day. Right now, a dungeon needed exploring.
A cave. A little darkness, and then, light. Being a wizard was handy sometimes. Fire in your palm, you lit the way.
Walls were lined with red words, little orange cones and yellow stripes on the ground that were just at the threshold of ditches with long, metal tubes. You knew what trains were, but the trains down here looked more like metal coffins. They were eerie. So were all the skeletons at your feet.
You looked back at Fern. You smiled, and he blushed. His eyebrows were furrowed.
Ah! A map, how handy. It wasn't too hard to figure out, too!
'You Are Here,' Follow the red dot, and then the blue line, and you could get where you're going. You jumped into the pit, and vanished into the dark tunnels. Fern trailed behind you.
"You're quiet today. Anything wrong?" It was a hushed question you spoke. There was A Vibe in these old tunnels you did not want to mess with too badly. After awhile, you learned to appreciate them, all the colorful graffiti scrawled on them too.
"I'm evil," His words crept to your ears like perfume. It was there, and then gone.
"We've been over this. You're not,"
"There's literally a demon inside of me," A little louder this time. Perfume turned to smoke.
You stopped in your tracks and turned around fast enough to see Fern's pupils still having to adjust to the lighting change. There was a moment of tenseness you both felt, slightly predatory and preylike on both ends.
"That demon does not constitute who your whole self is. A part of you is formed by the new experiences you go through, and some of that in your personality is completely isolated from what you've been born as," Your wizard mind liked to go on tangents and force your mouth to voice them. Sometimes they helped Fern in his journey, and sometimes they did not.
He still looked conflicted, damn.
"I'm evil," Smoke turned into a thick fog.
"Prove it, kill me." A gamble, sure. But you knew your bet had won when Fern's face went from anger to shock.
"I-I'd never!-" His voice got a lot higher when you said quick stuff like that. When you disarmed his defenses in less than a second. To be fair, you do the same thing when roles are reversed.
"Then you aren't evil, dingus. C'mon," You grabbed his hand, interlaced his fingers with yours, and gave him a kiss. You always liked how his grassy lips tickled yours. He's such a sweet man, how you've fallen in love with him. "Let's go explore the rest of this stupid station,"
...
'Oh my GLOB what the FUCK is that-' This is your first thought. There is no time for a second.
The thing, made of shiny steaming hot tar swung at you. You had enough wits to dodge, but you still screamed in terror while doing it.
Fern was immediately at your side. A grass sword, mighty and green as he, grew out of his arm and before one could blink, a chunk of tar monster was separated from the host.
'Tar, tar, dude what spell is even good against tar?' This was the forefront of your thoughts against the backdrop of Fern holding the thing at bay.
"Hey, babe, mind retreating for like three seconds? Gonna teleport this thing to the Fire Kingdom," Such important words spoken in such a casual tone. There was a moment where Fern wondered how much life you had been though to earn such eccentricity in such a stressful situation. He loved you.
When Fern stepped away, you did as you said. The last thing you heard before closing the portal was a fire guard screaming "What the GLOB-"
"...I, I didn't go too far this time, did I?" His voice, back to perfume.
"No! No, not at all!" You gave him a forehead kiss that he would appreciate more than you would ever know.
You both giggled to yourselves before continuing.
...
"Ah! Finally!" The joy in your voice was palpable enough to grab out of the air and eat. Fern turned towards you and-
"...Train tickets?" There was a hint of annoyance in there. You simply knew it.
"Yeah, I know, right?" You chuckled nervously before continuing, "I need it for a potion for Marceline. Endometriosis is really a fucker sometimes and this can help with that,"
You both walked in silence as you felt sunlight on your faces. Smelling fresh air after breathing in so much stale made you feel a special type of joy. "That really wasn't too much for you? I know you need to photosynthesize every once in awhile and I just don't want-" He kissed you. It was your turn for your face to get warm.
This silence was peaceful, as you two walked to your home in the forest. It overlooked grassy plains and was just at the edge of a thick line of trees.
"My love?"
"Yeah?" You adored his nicknames for you.
"What's endometriosis?"

So here's Dawn in the Monster High AU. Dawn is Dusk's ( @cleffalover173 EW OC) neighbor counterpart. She's mean, rude, and pretty vulgar both in behavior and in words (which of course is toned down in this AU because it's Monster High.). And just to clear things up, Dawn's eyes are only red in this AU, so don't get it twisted. 
So Dawn is a fallen angel, basically her father lead a rebellion and he and his family were cast out of heaven. Jordan’s father was one of the people instrumental in her family’s banishment, and that lead to her animosity towards Jordan himself. It happened when Jordan was 4 and Dawn was 3.
Bio, Abilities, Bonus Notes, Version without text and Skullette, and Skullette are down below!.
Please note that while I drew the design for this OC, Dawn belongs to @cleffalover173
Bio
Parents A fallen angel
Age 14
Killer Style Ever since being banished from Heaven, I can't go wrong with some black leather.
Freaky Flaw Pfft, nothing's wrong with the way I am. Don't ask such stupid questions.
"Um, if I could just cut in, she's rude, likes to make other people feel miserable and has a bad case of what Eduardo calls 'Daddy Issues'..." - Jordan
Pet Caught a cool scorpion while wandering the desert, and I named him Venom. Much better than Button-Eyes' wimpy tarantula.
Favorite Activity I'm great with spray cans and graffiti! So what if it's illegal? I enjoy it!
Pet Peeve I absolutely HATE talking about my frickin' father. NEVER bring him up around me unless you're hungry for a knuckle sandwich.
Favorite Subject I don’t freakin’ know. Guess Art’s the one I hate least…
Least Favorite Subject Monster Psychology. My stupid teacher always wants to talk to me about my freakin' dad...
Favorite Color(s) Lavender and Hot Pink
Favorite Food(s)I like anything meaty. Burgers, tacos, steak, you name it, I like it.
Friends Eduardo Ramirez Blade Norwood
Abilities
Darkness Manipulation In contrast to Jordan's light manipulation. Dawn can create and manipulate darkness.
Emotional Color Change Just like Jordan's halo and Kiyomi Haunterly's body. Dawn's halo acts similar to that of a mood ring, changing colors depending on how he's feeling. It’s normally orange* which means she's annoyed. yellow/gold means she’s happy, blue means she’s sad, red means she’s angry, purple means she’s scared, green means she’s disgusted, pink means she’s in love,  etc. However, her halo glows more dimly than Jordan's.
Flight Dawn can fly thanks to the wings on her back.
Immortality As with all fallen angels, which are beings of divine power, even after falling from grace, she is immortal.
Bonus Notes (More to possibly be added in the future)
Dawn (in both this AU and in general) is secretly an art prodigy, hence her favorite (or I guess "least hated") subject is art. 
Dawn hates Christmas (in both this AU and in general), with a rivalry matching Tom's
*Yes I'm aware her halo is black when it should be a dim orange, I forgot about the colored halo thing, sorry.

Day 2 - No Vacancy
It is the last day of November and no one wants to buy any more pumpkins. 
Halloween has gone by, and Thanksgiving has blown past too. The people of Lebanon, Kansas have had their fill of the bright orange gourds - for more than two months they've displayed them on their front porches, carved them into jack-o-lanterns, and added them into every kind of dessert and frothy little drink imaginable.
And that is why, on November 30th, Dean decides his family is going on a field trip to the Lebanon Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch.
Things have been good lately. No, scratch that. Life has been freakin' awesome. It has been just under two weeks since he rescued Cas from the Empty and a week since Jack came home. Dean is over the moon; radiating happiness in a way he never has before. They're all together, alive, and no Big Bad hovers menacingly on the horizon. Dean's not one to believe in a 'best case scenario,' but hell if this doesn't feel just like it.
The farm is about a twenty-five minute drive from the Bunker, and Dean, Cas, and Jack pull up in the Impala at the same time as Sam and Eileen arrive in Sam's CR-V. 
(Dean had teased him mercilessly about his new ride until Sam looked him dead in the eye, placing his hand protectively on Eileen's protruding belly, and insisted "Honda gets really good safety ratings, Dean." Dean, wisely, had shut up after that.)
Claire and Kaia are already there waiting, leaning up against Claire’s car, hand in hand. Jack leaps out of Baby as soon as Dean puts her in park, barreling toward the girls so he can nag Claire about his latest obsession: TikTok. Even from a distance it’s clear she’s rolling her eyes at him, but smiling despite herself
Dean and Cas get out of the car at a more leisurely pace and survey their surroundings.
What had been a busy festival complete with a lush corn maze, vibrant pumpkin patch, and stalls selling kettle corn and caramel apples two months ago is now a dismal scene. The corn maze has dried out and shriveled up, and the stalls are unmanned. Technically, there are still pumpkins aplenty in the field, but they're the ones that have been forsaken. The remaining pumpkins are leftovers that were considered either too skinny, too fat, or just too misshapen and lumpy to have been picked as the cream-of-the-crop.
Dean looks over at Cas. He’s squinting at the scenery in the dim autumn sunlight, and the nippy breeze has swept through his dark hair, making it seem more tousled than usual. Not for the first time, Dean thinks that he is gorgeous.
But now, he can actually tell Cas what he is feeling in these moments. There are no more half-truths or lies between them, nothing secret. After years of pining for one another without any hope of reciprocation and hiding the pains of longing, they’ve finally broken down the walls that kept them apart. They love one another fiercely, and while their relationship is new, it is not tenuous. 
So, Dean turns to him with a crooked grin.  “Hey, handsome.”
Cas blinks, and then a little smile curls the corners of his mouth. “Hello, Dean.”
Dean moves closer until their shoulders are brushing and he can feel the warmth of Cas’ body through both of their jackets. “You think Jack’s gonna be disappointed?” he asks quietly, watching their kid practically tackle Sam with a hug as Eileen signs something Dean can’t quite make out from the other end of the parking lot. “I mean, this isn’t exactly the ‘autumn glory’ we were promised on those fliers earlier this month.”
Cas doesn’t even hesitate. “No. I think Jack just appreciates having a normal...uh, sort of a normal life again. He’s excited to be here picking pumpkins, especially with Claire and Kaia, and Sam and Eileen joining us. This was a nice surprise you planned for him, Dean.”
It’s a simple compliment, and not even particularly saccharine, but Dean flushes from head to toe anyway. He’s working on believing the good things Cas says about him; he’s really trying, but it’s always been difficult for him to take a compliment about anything other than his good looks or hunting prowess. Instead, he meets Cas’ eye, and nods silently. And then, remembering he is allowed, takes Cas’ hand in his own, twining their fingers together.
They walk hand-in-hand to join Claire, Kaia, Jack, Sam and Eileen at the front gate. It’s hanging wide open, and no one is standing there to charge them an entrance fee. However, the sign does make a point to state that the maze is open until December 1st. Eileen shrugs, and so the seven of them wander down the path towards the pumpkin patch and the entrance to the maze. 
“Kaia! I’ll race you to the end!” Jack shouts, and laughing, Kaia chases him into the maze, dragging a grumbling Claire along behind her. 
“Let’s see if we can find anybody still working,” Sam suggests.
Eileen points at a worn down farmhouse tucked mostly behind a newly-painted red barn. “Someone must be home,” she signs pointedly, gesturing to plumes of smoke exuding from a grey chimney stack.
Dean ends up knocking on the door. He leaves Sam, Eileen, and Cas at a nearby picnic table, debating in Sign Language about the best flavor of cotton candy and whether or not the color of the dye changes the taste. 
 A minute or two later, an older man swings open the squeaky screen door to the house. He’s scowling, wearing muddy overalls, and chewing on a thick cigar. “Yeah?” he asks shortly. “Whaddya want?”
Dean raises his eyebrows at the farmer’s bluntness, but manages to respond politely. “My family and I saw fliers for this place a few weeks ago. We were hoping to buy some pumpkins and candy apples. What are you charging”
The farmer’s scowl grows deeper, and he looks past Dean to Sam, Eileen, and Cas relaxing on the bench, then narrows his eyes at the corn maze, where shrieks of laughter can be heard as the younger adults chase one another through the thinning stalks.
Getting impatient, with the man’s surly silence, Dean prods, “And…? It’s a yes or no question. Are you still selling pumpkins?”
The old man pulls the cigar out from between his teeth. “My wife and daughter run this hokey shit,” he grunts. “They went into town today ‘cause folks already came through here earlier in the month. They like customers. We haven't had anybody else stop by since before Thanksgiving.”
As his temper flares, Dean turns his grit teeth into a sharp smile. “Well, then it’s your lucky day! Here we are,” he says mockingly, sweeping his arms wide. The farmer mumbles something insulting and covers it with a hacking cough. Dean pretends not to hear him, “Fine. I take it from your sunny attitude that there will be no popcorn or apples today?” 
The man scoffs, “Enjoy the maze, boy-o. Free of charge.” He turns to lumber back inside, but Dean grabs the screen door before he can try to disappear.
“Hey!” the hunter barks. The farmer pauses, his body tensing for a fight. “Are you gonna sell me the goddamn pumpkins or not?” 
Cas has wandered to his side, either noticing the commotion, or simply because he wanted to be closer to Dean. Now, he interrupts casually, “You still have quite a few squash left in the fields and there’s going to be heavy frost two days from now, overnight. It’d be a shame if all of these pumpkins rotted, and you wasted the rest of your harvest.”
He has, quite deftly, snared the salty old farmer’s attention. Money is the man’s language; he might not enjoy having customers on his property so late in the season, but he certainly likes having the funds to maintain his land.
****************************************
“A hundred.”
“A hundred?” Sam sounds insulted. “You’re gonna pitch all of these in a couple days. There’s no way we’re paying a hundred. Try twenty-five dollars.”
The farmer rolls his eyes dramatically. He is in his element; the thrill of making a good deal and bartering his wares on the last day is an unexpected but welcome surprise that has put him in high spirits. “You’re cute, kid. I know my produce is worth more than that. I’ll go down to eighty-five, and you can take whatever you can carry in one trip.”
“Thirty-five,” Sam shoots back.
“Eighty.”
“Forty-one.” Once, Sam was going to be a lawyer. He’s got the upper hand in this situation and he’s going to crush his opposition. One more price reduction and they’ll have dozens of pumpkins to take home, way below the original asking price.
“Sevent…”
“Sixty-five, and we fill up all of our cars,” Dean interrupts, and Sam looks at him, utterly betrayed as the gleeful farmer shakes on the deal.
As Cas, Jack, Claire, and Kaia help carry the pumpkins to Sam and Claire’s cars respectively, Dean just claps Sam on the shoulder and tells his brother, “It’s still a cheaper family outing than going to Disney.” 
“Yeah, I guess,” Sam says mournfully, and sulks over to help Eileen, who is supervising the influx of pumpkins that are being loaded into their vehicle.
Dean chuckles, and scoops up a few pumpkins. He’s got some recipes he wants to try out, plus he’s excited to teach Jack to carve ‘Jack’-o-lanterns. The kid seemed to want to learn how to do everything the human way now, and Dean is more than happy to teach him.
One by one, Dean places eight pumpkins in the backseat of Baby. One is tall and oblong with lots of stringy stems, matched with the only short and well rounded pumpkin he sees in the field. Between those two he sets a teeny tiny baby-sized pumpkin. Then, there’s a pumpkin that is half-green half-orange. It seems like it must have grown too fast because it is still quite young despite its size. Next, he adds two medium pumpkins that are also young, but growing strong. And last but not least, he picks up two more pumpkins. They are both a bit damaged - one is bruised and discolored, the other looks like it might have grown sideways. But Dean picks them because they lean against one another in the field, steady despite their flaws, despite what they’ve been through. 
He sets them all up in a long line along the backseat, and when Cas sees what he chose, his eyes go soft and warm as he looks at Dean.
“Let’s go home,” he breathes out, and takes Dean’s hand again.
Everyone gets in their cars - Dean in the driver's seat and Cas taking shotgun, as before. Jack tries to get in the Impala, then looks in the back window, and starts laughing. 
“Dean! There’s nowhere for me to sit.”
Cas chuckles quietly beside him, as Dean grins. “Aw, tough break, kid. Guess you’re walking home.”
“Hey, no fair- Dean! C’mon! Cas! Tell Dean he has to -”
Dean starts to roll up the window, laughing loudly as Jack knocks on the window pane.
“Sorry! No vacancy!” he hollers. Jack is nearly doubled over, hilarity spilling from him in peals of laughter.
Claire honks her horn loudly, and throws open the back door to her car. Jack straightens, and scrambles to join her and Kaia, shooting Dean and Cas a bright wave goodbye.
Sam and Eileen also wave as they leave the parking lot, wheels sending gravel spinning in their wake. Claire and Kaia follow, and Jack rolls down the window as they pass, and calls across to Cas and Dean, “This was the best family trip ever!”
They too are soon gone, headed for the Bunker to drop off dozens of pumpkins which will decorate every room until they end up decaying or until Dean cooks them. 
Dean and Cas wait until the others have left, and then Dean leans over and kisses Cas, long and sweet. When he pulls back, Cas traces his cheek, and says thoughtfully, “We could take the backroads home today….”
Dean is so gone on him. He kisses Cas once, twice more, and then puts the Impala in drive, and they’re on the road, taking the long way home.
**********************************
I enjoyed adding a little Day 1 ‘Harvest’ flare to Day 2!
My goal is to make most of my Suptober fics one-shots that are in some way related to my multichapter fix-it that is still a work in progress (Dean/Cas, Sam/Eileen, etc, post 15x20).
Thank you for reading!

Yugioh S5 Ep 21: Joey Takes A Snack at that Cray Sauce
Hey guys! The 17 yo cat with kidney disease I was out of town watching lived to see another week (she was a very good girl). Which means now I can get back to the good stuff. This episode is brought to you by the colors red and orange, and I hope you like this color, and I hope you like this after effects they CGId onto this volcano.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anyways, they first have to do this familiar ledge fall, because, it’s Yugioh, and if there’s a bunch of lava, Tristan wants
in
that.
Tumblr media
And then Joey decides...hey you know what? I’m gonna jet. And...it’s not the first time he’s pulled a wild card and been unpredictable, I mean none of us can really forget that time he decided to get murdered by Mai instead of going in a straight line towards the end boss last season, but this time it was kind of funny how it was hastily composed.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And off he goes, folks.
As he left, Tristan was like “Ya dummy!” and Tea was like “nono, we gotta encourage him--run Joey! You can do it! See? Now he’s gone.” and it’s like...Tea is either trying to kill Joey with her support or honestly thinks that’s good support and I can’t fully tell which she is.
(read more under the cut)
It’s at this point that Grandpa has the gall to say “Did any of you happen to catch the lore? I fell asleep during that part.” Just like my Dad when we watch any movie as a family.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meanwhile, maybe 100 ft away from them, Joey is in mortal peril but it’s Joey, so he’ll be fine. Don’t worry about it.
In fact, this episode seems like it would have been a better arc if it stretched out more episodes because the Joey neglect happens so quickly and out of nowhere that it’s...less organic than your average children’s show. Honestly it’s kind of funny how fast the fall of Joey Wheeler happens this episode. And I think it could have been a fun interesting time if it was handled better but youknow...it’s crammed into one single episode and you’ll se what happens.
Tumblr media
As Yugi ruminates a cool thing that would have been really interesting this season--like running into more rando’s from other periods of time than just Alexander--Tea looks across the lava highway and was like “found it.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Back at the dragon situation, Joey starts opening his heart to this dragon and it’s like...did they originally intend for Seto Kaiba to be here? Because I guess Joey uses Red Eyes a lot, but I also skip a lot of the card games, so when I think “who likes the dragon card?” Joey is not the first one I think of.
That and like he got over his Atlantis dragon card like hella fast, right? Like totally already over that?
And also if you thought Joey would pull out his other dragon to try and communicate or get a hold of this dragon like...nah.
Back at the fort, these guys decided to ditch Joey to get to this sword at the top of a volcano to solve the riddle, and what follows is some weird ass canon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As I’m pulling up my Google Doc with my deathcount on it, Tristan decides this is the time he won’t freakin die and turn into a robot monkey for 15 episodes.
Tumblr media
And he makes a huge ass green dragon. You’d think this MASSIVE dragon would do more in this episode, but nah. Although he pulls out Massive Dragon, it’s like kind of worthless, so he mostly puts it back in his pocket.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then Tea pulls this elf chick out and it’s freakin hilarious because look at her giant elf.
Tumblr media
Like Tea is not a small person! Are Yugioh monsters all 12 ft tall???
Tumblr media
Yugi is also all ham about fusing with his dude now. It knocked him out a couple episodes ago, but Yugi is so keen on destroying his body that he’s back in clown town. And like...took his Grandpa for a ride, I guess, although I’m pretty sure Summoned Skull has wings.
Course, Summoned Skulls insides are his outsides...and I dunno if you’d want Summoned Skull to give you a big hug and carry you around. Summoned Skull just seems like he’s sticky.
And, once they make it to the top of the volcano where the plot sword lives, we first have to visit this plot twist of the century.
Tumblr media
YEAH.
OUT OF NOWHERE.
THIS EPISODE IS NOT LONG.
Tumblr media
Aaaaaaand now Joey is going to try and kill everyone here. I did not skip anything, PS, Joey dipped off-screen.
PS, everyone’s reaction to “I will kill you!” was a whole lot of rolling their eyes at first being like “Joey, stawp.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, now that Joey’s randomly possessed by this dragon, we get a peek into what Joey’s brain zone looks like. It’s a whole lot of nothing in between his ears.
Tumblr media
Consistent to S1 actually, when we had a bit of a Joey Brain Zone moment. It was a blank void there, too.
So apparently Joey decided, back when he was confessing his love to Red Eyes Black Dragon, that he would jump on it’s back to calm it down--and it just...fused with him. So...now he’s a dragon.
Sure, I guess. I mean...there’s really no limit on what a Duel monster can’t do, so I’ll allow it.
Tumblr media
The team tries to just say “ah screw it” and pull up this sword themselves (you can kind of see it in this shot) and the sword just slurps into the dirt even more out of spite. Seeing that there’s a bit of a time limit, Grandpa pulls this one out of his back pocket.
Tumblr media
Yo, Grandpa’s not even possessed. Hey, remember that time that Grandpa nearly died giving Arthur Hawkins the last of his water back in Egypt? Remember that?
Like uh, you can definitely tell this was made by a different team that may not have gotten that cue card. It may have been lost in the mail. Either way, kind of a hilarious heel turn on Grandpa’s personality here, although it does make logical sense to save most of the kids from sacrificing one kid. It’s just...that kid is Joey...so...that’s like his adopted Grandson, right?
So Yugi does something very on brand for Yugi and invades a brain.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And like...obviously Yami and Yugi would say no to this. They would never do this. Not after all the dozens and dozens of times they have sacrificed the world and everything for their best friends.
Tumblr media
But...maybe just this one time we can kill Joey? As a treat?
So uh...Yami hella vaporizes Joey with his new powers. Luckily, Joey Wheeler has Shaggy Doo energy and just...he survives it for some reason. I don’t know why he isn’t dead, maybe because the dragon made him stronger? Eh, don’t do the math (on any part of this episode).
Tumblr media
So Joey gets up and is like “I know the answer to the riddle!” As the sword kinda melts into the volcano and Gramps is like “Well we’re dead, actually, so no one cares!”
And Joey’s like “Look!” and he hops onto the back of the Red Eyes Black dragon and reveals this random thing:
Tumblr media
Because it turns out, that the dragon was the real problem and not this volcano with a sword in it.
Which youknow...could have been cool if this episode wasn’t so many insane plot points so quickly. Kind of a lot of episode here. This episode could have been a whole season of a show.
Like how long was Joey Possessed by Marik in S2? Like 5 or 6 episodes? And you can see how much more successful it was at selling the story although it was a lot of the same themes and ideas. Pacing is important.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And then Joey passes out from the suit juice.
Tumblr media
Which is when we get one more Alexander cameo, just kinda watching them leave and onto the next arc of their little journey.
Tumblr media
They sure did put a lot of eyeliner on Alexander the great, and, being real...he may have actually been wearing a hell ton of dope eyeliner when he was alive, so this could be historically accurate, for all we know. Those old marble statues used to be painted, after all. Maybe they had dope Yugioh eyeliner down to his cheekbones? One can wish.
And like if you ever get the time--seeing what those marble statues looked like with paint on it is so freakin goofy and fun, I love it. I love that for 600 years we thought those marble statues were supposed to be naked and white but it’s like, nah man--this guy’s just wearing a skin tight breast plate and when you paint it, it’s so garish it’s like a freakin clown outfit.
But anyway, that’s all for now! Hope y’all have a good weekend, and as always, here’s a link to read these in chrono order, if you just got here!
