Words: 4430
Summary: You decided to take your chance and ask Pietro out. There had to be more to his flirting right? Unfortunately he turns you down but you won't waste your time mourning what could have been. You move on and find a perfect partner in the Winter Soldier.
"Maybe I got the signals mixed up?" You lightheartedly muse to Wanda. Carefully, you push down on the button stopper of the wine box that was situated between the two of you.
Wanda shakes her head. "Don't even give it a second thought. He's my brother and I love him, but you can do WAY better than him." She couldn't fathom why Pietro would reject your proposition of a date. Wanda knew her twin brother liked you. Painfully obvious in the obnoxious manner both of you flirt.
Making a mental note to chew him out later, Wanda tilts the remainder of her own wine glass into her mouth. "He's been acting like a complete ass since we arrived in America. I think now that he has freedom, he's overdosing on it. What was the term Tony used?"
You choke on your wine, a snort burning your nose and throat. "Man-whore."
She nods. "Yes! That is it. He's become quite a man-whore!"
Near dying next to her, you're forced to put down your wine glass or you would ruin your bedspread. Once your hands were free, you use them to clutch your stomach as it aches from your laughter.
Really you weren't that upset about it. You thought you would give it a shot, maybe something was there. No big duh to you.
"Did he really say he didn't want to date you because you're coworkers?" Confusion still plagued Wanda as she slowly blinks her eyes. Trying to understand what her brother was thinking. They didn't have that type twin telepathy. That was mainly based on feelings. "That's complete bull."
"Honestly it's okay. Really." You tell Wanda trying to calm her down. "He's probably right. No harm done."
Wanda placates her own feelings with a smile at how unperturbed you were by the rejection. Pietro was a fool. His loss will be someone else's gain.
Not long after someone else did stumble upon you.
Never before had you worked with the Winter Soldier. You'd seen him around Avenger's HQ and spotted him in the common areas, but you wouldn't say you were close to Bucky Barnes. Only a handful of friendly words had ever been shared between you.
The assignment that paired you together with him would ultimately turn out to be a blessing in disguise. A simple mission that you confidently thought you could finish in no time. The run of the mill shadow organization that possessed weapons of mass destruction and infiltrating said organization. You and Bucky were picked for this based on your success record and skill set. You found it a compliment as you heard nothing but great things about Bucky. He was a fine soldier and outstanding friend to Steve Rogers.
Fury told you the timeline looked to be a month before this organization known as 'Specter' planned to launch its weapon. A major problem was that their base was hidden so both you and Bucky would have to go deep undercover.
You shared an close space with Bucky and found him pleasurable to be around. He was easy on the eyes too. His smile makes every inch of you flutter delightfully. Similar to how flirting with Pietro made you feel.
Patience was required when gathering intel. An operation like this couldn't be rushed. That meant learning more about Bucky. He even manages to pry some stories from your childhood out of you. Things you hadn't remembered in a long time.
When passing binoculars, fingers linger against one another. Excuses of offering warmth just so that you could press yourself against him. His jacket might as well have belonged to you now due to how often you were wearing it now.
"It looks better on you anyway." Bucky would tell you. A heaviness in his gaze puts all of your functions at a halt.
You started noticing how kissable his lips looked. Or the fine veins that run along his hands. Beautiful as they held a gun. Between your legs start to ache for him when you watch Bucky strangling a man for information. You never found violence. . . attractive until you worked with Bucky. It was just a means to get by. A requirement for the world you lived in.
Throughout the mission, you manage to keep things professional. Even though the burning gazes exchanged were still frequent. You had to focus your efforts on completing your assignment. Bucky respects that type of work ethic.
Identifying the main figures within Specter was easy once missing pieces were filled with the information you received along the way. One would be spared for questioning, the other two were quickly disposed of.
When your prisoner was handed over to the government which held dominion, you and Bucky head back to the room you'd been using to hide out in.
You were excited to go home and tell Wanda all about it. You're giddy, imagining her scandalized reaction that you loved. Her eyes would get so big, hands clutching onto your arm begging for more details.
A knock at the door puts a pause in your packing as you go to check the peephole. You open it once you verify it's just Bucky. "You all done packing? Sorry, I'll just be five more minutes."
He closes the door behind him. "It's not that."
The depth of his voice has you shivering, turning back to him with your full attention. He's cleaned off the dirt from his face and changed his clothes. Appeared Bucky even brushed his dark hair. Disheveled Bucky was sexy but cleaned up Bucky was a god damn smoke show. Your bones become trembling jelly as he stalks up to you.
"I believe, we have some personal business to take care of." The corner of his lips twitch up in a predatory manner to show off his sharp cuspids.
"By all means," You breathe out and internally cheer when it doesn't come out as a squeak "lets commence the business Mr. Barnes."
The delay of your return to headquarters did raise brows.
Especially Pietro's.
You took Wanda by the arm and she knew you had a story to tell. Using her magic-like ability, she conjures a bottle of wine accompanied by two glasses.
Two schoolgirls giggling and kicking their legs as they talk about one's crush.
"And he told me-" your cheeks hurt from your smile "that he wants to take me out on a proper date."
Wanda swoons backwards as she falls against your bed. She says something in her native Sokovian before switching to English "I told you that you could do much better than Pietro."
From then on it was a common occurrence to find you and Bucky together. You visit one another's room frequently day and night. Time spent not on assignment, Bucky would take you out on both fun and romantic dates. He wooed you like no other man had before. A goddamn gentleman who ate and slurped your pussy in a way that sucked the soul right out of you.
There were men before Bucky but sweet mercy they couldn't compare to the beast that was Bucky once he got your legs perched atop his shoulders. You would never had taken him for a sloppy eater, not by the way he used his fork and knife when he took you out to fancy restaurants. When he slides in his cold metal fingers, your back spikes up in a arch off the bed.
However, not everyone in the Avenger's Headquarters was happy for you and Bucky.
When Pietro first walked into the communal kitchen to find Bucky's hand up your shirt, he nearly suffered from an aneurysm on the spot. Thankfully his feet reacted faster than his brain and took off in the opposite direction before either of you noticed his presence. He'd heard the office gossip that you and Bucky were an item now. Pietro arrogantly thought that your relationship with the winter soldier was a fling or some fucked up way for get back at him for turning you down.
Hitting the two month mark had Pietro sweating. Your relationship with Bucky was thriving. The sting of betrayal sears his insides. When he voices his woes to his twin, Wanda held no comforting words for him.
"Oh well. They love each other now. So you have to move on." Uncaringly, her attention goes back to her phone. "You had your chance, Pietro."
He shoots his sister a glare. "Have some empathy."
That makes her laugh but at least Wanda puts her phone down and turns back to Pietro. "Empathy? Refresh my memory, what was the real reason why you didn't date her?" He'd told you it was because you were coworkers. Claimed he didn't want things to be weird around HQ. Conveniently forgetting that Wanda and Vision were in a happy relationship. But she knew the disgusting truth.
His eyes turn pleading, round and lined with those pretty lashes he flaunted. "Wanda-"
"No, I want to hear you say it again and really help me try to understand." Her arms cross in front of her.
Pietro takes his bottom lip between his teeth to give it a worrying chew. "I. . . I wasn't ready to be in a monogamous relationship- Hey, I'm being serious." He adds the last part after he hears Wanda snort. "We spent all of our adolescence and young adult lives under HYDRA control. It's only been two years since we were liberated. I want to live a little bit more before settling down."
"And look what that has cost you."
"I didn't think-"
"No, you didn't." Wanda's exasperated. "That's not a good excuse. Bucky is in the same boat as us and just because he missed out on having a life he didn't let that stop him from making things official with her."
In short, Pietro simply had no choice but to deal with it. And his way of dealing with it was bringing home his current ladies in the hopes of catching your attention. If you see him with another woman, maybe your jealous would remind you of your feelings for him. That tactic didn't work and only gained him disapproving looks from his twin. He stopped when it was clear your heart eyes weren't straying from Bucky.
Evident that he wasn't going to win you back, Pietro's disbelief curdled to jealousy.
Words weren't enough to bring him to his senses; none in English or Sokovian reached his ears. Exhausted from trying to speak reason to him, Wanda stops all together. Perhaps her brother needed to fall on his ass to wake up.
You weren't blind to Pietro's spike in hostile conduct. Lately there were a few close calls between Bucky and Pietro. Bucky refused to stand for Quicksilver's attitude. Fists weren't raised- not yet. But if looks could kill, both would be incinerated.
Unable to ignore Pietro at Headquarters, you and Bucky take the plunge and buy an apartment together and move out of the superhero facility all together. The apartment complex was still relatively close to headquarters; mainly housing other staff that worked out of there.
Just because you removed yourselves, you were still Avengers and required to attend functions for different movie fundraisers or anything else that had you in hair and make-up for two hours. It paid off to watch Bucky's mouth near drop at the sight of you. This once-assassin who has blood on his hands truly did something to you when he wore a sharp suit. Seams that are streamline and highlight his broad shoulders. Even his waist was deliciously framed. You wanted to hop on him and wrap your legs around that sinfully sexy waist.
Alas, neither you or Bucky could just continue to stand there drooling over the other.
"Wipe your chin, Barnes." Natasha teases as she passes by. To you she shoots a lively smile. "Come on you two. Free booze and food await us."
Pietro had already found the said free booze; ignoring the free food part. He was obligated to attend the gala, agreed to it months ago. If he backed out now, everyone else would have his ass over the fire.
Though he felt like maybe it would have been better had he just said fuck it and stayed home. Especially when you and Bucky walk in looking like the perfect couple. Cameras went off yet people kept a respectful distance from the two of you. You basically had your own guard dog in the form of the Winter Soldier. He towers over you in a way that told others to back off; a protective hand holding onto your's. Both of you are quite the sight standing next to Wanda and Vision. Wanda happily hugs you, her words lost to the loud background music.
He can't take his eyes off of you.
Alcohol warming his system, Pietro downed glass after glass. There was a momentary warmth he felt inside of him before he caught sight of you again.
Hating seeing the two of you together, Pietro spirals in his own head. Plenty of pretty girls around him, all he could focus on was you and the fact that you were hanging off the arm of a murderer. Everyone seemed to have so quickly forgotten that this man killed Howard and Maria Stark.
The moment you unlatched yourself from Bucky's side to go to the bar, Pietro descent upon you.
Your heightened senses barely register the high velocity sound that you associated with Quicksilver. Half a step back was all you were able to make before you heard his husky voice "You find killers sexy?"
His question rakes claw marks against your mind. "What?"
A mocking laugh puffs out of him and he rolls his eyes over in Bucky's direction. "The Winter Soldier. You like the fact that he's murdered innocent people?"
On edge, you notice in your periphery how people were starting to turn to look your way. The volume of Pietro's voice was gradually starting to rise and draw onlookers.
Flushing and attempting to retain your composure, you keep your shoulders back confidently. “Looks like you’ve had too much to drink.” Your eyes search the crowd for Wanda so that she could take him home before he said or did anything he’d regret later. You couldn’t see her or her floating man among the many bobbing heads. Even unable to find Bucky despite his stature.
“Deflecting the question, I see.” Pietro smugly smirks at you; a sway in the step that he took forward. “Shall I raise my voice so you can hear better?”
You narrow your eyes into deadly slits as you squint at him. He was clearly not in his right mind. “What do you want, Pietro?” What was this sudden change in him about? The moment your relationship became public knowledge, Pietro had been pissy ever since. He was the one who rejected you. The one who told you that you shouldn't date because you're coworkers. He had no right to be jealous.
Bucky suggested a few weeks ago that Pietro may still be interested in you. Proposed that his peaked interest must have been from seeing you and Bucky together. At the time you laughed it off. A corner of your mind was screaming at you to listen to him.
Not appreciating how closely he leaned into you, Pietro snarls "That guy has taken numerous, innocent lives. How could you fuck someone with that kind of blood on their hands?" Now you were sure more and more people were pulling out their phones and recording to send to whatever social media platform.
Heat rises off of your cheeks as they blare like alarms. You felt your body tremble not because you were afraid, no, you tremble under the weight of your own fury. Your powers rattled the bars of the cage you kept it in. Clenching down hard against your back teeth with the effort to keep them at bay.
"You know why he did those terrible things. It wasn't him." Growling softly you try desperately to keep a semblance of a calm tone. You were never the type to show your anger. The public might turn against you if they see you break from Pietro's cruel words. Even the bits you were letting slip was enough for your audience to know you were beyond furious. "He was under HYDRA mind control. You of all people should understand the ways HYDRA implements their tools of pain." It wasn't working.
You needed Bucky before you really snapped your last strand of patience.
At least Pietro had enough sense to take a step away from you. In his drunken stupor, he hadn't noticed the crowd. Dozens of people holding up their smartphones, a few reporters who were allowed in were snapping bright pictures. That's when he saw Bucky and Wanda toward him.
Wanda uses her power to wrap him up in scarlet bindings and drag him to where she stood at the cusp of the crowd. She spits something out in Sokovian toward him, motioning for Bucky to go to your side and get you out of there. He looked more ready to rip Pietro apart but valued your wellbeing over all else and easily strode to you.
He slings a protective arm around your shoulders, pulling you closer to his side in an attempt to keep you out of the sight of cameras.
Those involved were taken back to Avengers HQ so the situation could be straightened out. That is, after Fury was done yelling at everyone for how they acted at what was supposed to be an extravagant gala. Admonished how you and Pietro were acting like dramatic high schoolers with your stunt and how this would definitely tarnish the reputation of earth's mightiest heroes. Pietro was still as drunk as a skunk, hissing at everyone who tried to get near him. Only being held back by Wanda who was still yelling at him in Sokovian. As everyone argued back and forth, only you and Bucky remained quiet.
A small upside could be found. Though it was quite the public altercation, popularity for you and Bucky as a couple sky rocketed. Within the hours of it happening, many social media websites exploded with praise at how you defended your man.
That news wasn't enough to make anyone happy at the moment.
Seeing that nothing would be resolved with such bickering, Bucky clears his throat to draw everyone's attention to him. "May I get a word with Pietro alone?"
Fury doesn't look like he wants to allow it. He was assured though that if anything were to happen, Bucky would be able to stand on his own and fend off an angry Pietro. His single dark eye roves around the room before conceding to Bucky's request.
Motive unclear, you arch a brow in his direction. He just offers you a smile and leans toward you to say "It'll be alright. Jus' wanna talk to him."
"I've seen you 'just talk' to people before." You remind him trying to keep your voice stern. "Don't make things worse. Okay?"
"Yes ma'am." That smirk of his will be the death of you, you just know it. There's a silent exchange between you and Wanda who finally relinquishes her scarlet restraints on her twin brother. Pietro staggers without the additional support that held him up.
"Fifteen minutes. Cameras are rolling." Fury warns as he escorts the others out.
Comfortably strolling forward, Bucky pulls out one of the conference chairs that had been entirely ignored. "Take a seat, Maximoff." Immediately there's a snarl curling Pietro's lips until Bucky rolls his eyes. "Or stand. Doesn't matter I guess. Just, listen to me for a moment."
Inebriated individuals don't understand reason, too caught up in their own tilted perception. He wants to do anything else but listen to Bucky prattle on about how he needs to back off of you. That you belonged to him now and how he wouldn't tolerate Pietro's pursuit of you.
Luck appeared to be on Bucky's side for the alcohol was wearing off of Pietro as he started to lose his steam and reluctantly slink down into the chair opposite Bucky's. His dark eyes hold steady onto the metal armed man. Remembering all too clear the stories that HYDRA would tell him and Wanda about the best operative they've ever had: the Winter Soldier. Would this legend of a man be able to hold off Pietro's speed attacks if he were to try?
Honestly he was tired of being angry. Emotions both positive and negative were siphoned out of him until there was nothing left.
Bucky could see that.
"Whatever we say here, stays here." Bucky speaks again, each word cruelly clipped. They strike Pietro like small arrows. Nothing could prepare him for the dead eyed glare that now pinned him to his chair. "Your behavior stops here. I've been more than patient. Held my tongue and my fist when I wanted to knock some sense into you. I didn't, for her sake since she didn't want to cause any trouble among the team. But you're spoiled brat act can't be tolerated anymore. You embarrassed all of us at the gala and made the Avengers look like fools."
His metal hand curls its fingers inwards toward his palm before releasing; an attempt to calm himself before his tone became too heated.
Pietro waits for any sign of movement for Bucky as the larger man deeply inhales. Finally, Bucky's eyes flick back up to him. "I get it."
With a heavy tongue, Pietro croaks out "Get what?"
"I know why and what has fueled your actions. Underneath it all you may have possibly loved her. You're upset that you lost your chance with her. It sucks, it has to to lose someone as amazing as her. I couldn't imagine. . ."
There's a flicker of anger at how the Winter Soldier spoke to him. Reminded Pietro of when his father would scold him as a child.
Bucky's voice soften when he detects the subtle twitch of Pietro's nose. He promised you that he wouldn't escalate things. "I'm sorry. I feel for you. But. . . I'm not going to be stupid enough to let her go. As long as she'll have me, she's mine."
He wanted to ignore the sincerity that warmed Bucky's words. Wanted to keep what little resentment remained inside.
Abruptly, Bucky stands from his chair; bottom of the legs scraping against the floor and startling Pietro in the process. In half a second, Pietro is up on his feet, taking a defensive position. Though his movements were sloppy as his perception was still muddled from his quickly consumed drinks.
Whatever camaraderie had been built between them in those short minutes of Bucky talking was gone. Back were those assassin sharp eyes. "If you upset her one more time, it won't be me you'll have to deal with. It will be the Winter Soldier coming after you. And I can guarantee not even your speed will be able to stop that monster."
"I told you."
He didn't want to hear it from Wanda right now. Damn her for always being right. Right now he just wanted to forget how he made such an ass of himself in front of so many people. When he wasn't trying to fend off his massive hangover migraine he was scrolling through social media, coming upon videos of how he spat in your face saying all sorts of cruel and vindictive things to you. So many mean comments slandering Quicksilver and adoring the hero couple.
In an attempt to drown out Wanda, Pietro grabs his pillow and lays it over his head.
That wouldn't stop her as she was on the war path. He'd hurt her best friend.
Red tendrils of her power rip his pillow off of his head. Pietro hisses in response and whips his head to narrow his eyes in her direction. "You're going to apologize to her. Because if you don't and pull this kind of shit again, Bucky is going to kill you and I won't be able to stop him. You're an idiot for not realizing how protective he is of her." She mumbles something about how lucky he was that Bucky hadn't smashed his face in the conference room during their private chat.
Quiet for a moment, Pietro sits up and leans his back against the bed's headboard. "I know. . . I know I've fucked everything up. I just. . ."
Wanda still has her arms crossed in front of her chest, posture vibrating with the need to throttle her twin. The frostiness in her expression slackens though at Pietro finally admitting that he was in the wrong. Not like she got satisfaction out of it. It pained her watching her brother act like a total dick head toward her best friend. It wasn't long ago that she thought you and Pietro would make a nice couple.
He sighs and runs a hand through his ash blonde hair, repeating "I've fucked everything up."
"At least you're owning up to it." quietly points out Wanda.
Time was necessary for all wounds to heal. That applied toward the ones Pietro had caused. He gave you space for two days before he came up to you to ask for a private word; promising he'd behave and that he just wanted to apologize for everything. Even told you about what Bucky had said to him.
You knew he told the truth because his face was the definition of genuine remorse and repentance.
For most of his speech he looked at his hands, but when he dared to glance up at you Pietro would hold your gaze. His earnestness brimming in his blue eyes. For so long they had been darkened by his discontent. Now they remind you of the pretty bright hue they used to be.
After a moment of silence, Pietro hesitantly asks "Are you happy with him? Truly?"
"I am. I've never been this happy in my entire life. He makes me happy." A bright smile flourishes on your face. "I love him."
Pietro nods.
"Hey, even if things didn't work out romantically with us doesn't mean I don't want to be friends with you. I do. We had fun as friends." You bump him with your elbow.
A wisp of a smile beckons at his lips but couldn't quite get all the way there. "I'd like that. Eventually. . ."
"Eventually." You repeat in agreement.

Can I have an post about NCT Mark's reputation in the industry or his ideal type? P.S You're legit look like a 90s superstar💌💖💖 don't be shy and drop your skincare routine please 🙏
WHY ARE NCTZENS BEING SO NICE TO MEEEE, THIS IS LIKE THE 2ND COMPLIMENT I'VE GOTTEN THANK YOUUU 😭💚 Ofc since we did TY Track I don't see why I can't do one for Mark 🦁
Mark from NCT's ideal type:
Qualities
I channeled: "Hmm... What do I like in a partner?" I think Mark hasn't really thought about what important qualities a partner should have and more so has thoughts about appearance or personality.
Mark would be interested in someone similar to him or someone with similar values, habits, or behavior as him, but with a more elevated mindset.
He could want to do date someone who is also a musician or a writer. I feel like Mark is curious about the twin flame dynamic? He could want to feel a connection with someone on a deeper level. Telepathy? Mark is wanting a partner who could read his mind and emotions so that way he doesn't always have to explain himself. Someone who is very aware and observant. A partner that eases his anxiety or relieves him of his everyday stress. He could also like if his partner was more optimistic and looked on the bright side of things because Mark can have a more "realistic" outlook on life.
Personality
I'm ngl... Mark has a toxic taste in partners LMAO 💀 I just feel that he wants someone who keeps him on his toes and he hates predictability. Like if his partner was too "normal" or too "stable", he's gonna hate that, he's gonna feel like he's the partner with the issues, so he wants someone that can be as imperfect as him. "It's more fun that way, no?"
I'm laughing pls 😭- "I'm not saying I want my heart broken, but if she's bad then she can take it [his heart]."
Mark really does not give a fuck 😂 (btw this is the first reading I've done for a celebrity where I cannot stop giggling??? He's so funny). He also wants someone who would like call him out on his bullshit. Mark doesn't want someone who's submissive or a pushover, "😁Feistyyy." It's giving: "I love the kind of woman that will actually just kill me"
Intuitively, I feel like Mark also has a lot of insecurity in his relationships as well. The partners who are healthier for him, he feels like he's not good enough for them, so instead he dates partners who are often unstable. It's okay to date someone who's more outspoken and dominant, but it seems like he's constantly attracted to partners who are too controlling towards him.
Physical traits
"Honestly I have a type. I'm not the tallest so I don't wanna date anyone who's like too tall but I don't mind the height too much. I like hair, the people I've dated their hair is pretty long and if they have short hair, it's gotta be like fluffy (voluminous is the word he was looking for)." Channeled songs: Trap Queen, 679, & Again by Fetty Wap
"I'm like "Hey, what's up? Hello" (Ayy)
Seen yo pretty ass soon as you came in the door
I just wanna chill, got a sack for us to roll
Married to the money, introduced her to my stove
Showed her how to whip it, now she remixin' for low
She my trap queen, let her hit the bando
We be countin' up, watch how far them bands go"
"Baby girl, you're so damn fine, though
I'm tryna know if I could hit it from behind, though
I'm sipping on you like some fine wine, though
And when it's over, I press rewind though, ayy
You talking bands, girl, I got it
Benjamins all in my pocket
I traded in my Trues for some Robins
He playing Batman, Fetty's gon' rob him, ayy
I got a Glock in my 'Rari, ayy
17 shots, no .38"
"I want you to be mine again, baby, ayy
I know my lifestyle is driving you crazy, ayy
But I cannot see myself without you
We call them fans, though, girl, you know how we do
I go out of my way to please you
I go out of the way to see you
I ain't playing no games, I need you"
Oh he's a giverrr 😝. Mark wants for his partner to look good, so he'd go out of his way to pamper them and spoil them. Like "oh baby you want your nails done? I got youuu 😌". He likes to show off his partner. I heard "I want that Beyoncé and Jay Z love." (😭💀 Mark go sit tf down please). I love the energy tho fr.
He's mentioned girls a lot + all 4 cards are women, so he has a obvious preference towards the female gender.
Long hair
Thick, voluminous hair
All hair textures (straight, wavy, curly, etc).
Varies from pale, medium, deep, or brown skin tones.
Girls with a "mean" expression or resting bitch face (🤨😠😒)
Feline beauty
Arched eyebrows
Horizontally wider eyes
Prominent features (big nose and big lips)
Likes lipstick or lip gloss ("Juicy lips")
Someone who plays hard to get (as in a tsundere, basically acts like they don't want him but secretly does)
Shoulders and collarbones
Pretty hands
Nice ass
Likes jewelry? Rings and earrings to be specific.
Something about fabrics is coming up, so Mark could like when women wear flowy dresses or like those sheer beach cover ups.
Instagram baddie style is very apparent here.
Soft glam makeup (U.K? Black London baddie makeup. Latina makeup coming up as well.)
Mixes luxury with casual
Long acrylic nails
High heels
Painted toes
I am being reminded of that song that goes "Ion want no barbie, I want me a bratz doll "
Bratz doll type of beauty
Celebrities/influencers who are similar to his ideal type:
Juliana Nalu, Ashley Nicole King, Kali Uchís, Camo, Jordyn Woods, Yarastargal, Mia Owens, lisajn37, amandaa_solis, Cindy Kimberly, asiaeros, bbv_g6rl, 200120_01, & bybrokelle

you know, I like the timeless child thing. to me, now that it fits into canon, it works. the doctor we know (and that the doctor themself knows), is like a construction of the chameleon arc. only the life the doctor has lived, from childhood onwards, is real. there are no false moments.
we have had 60 years of the doctor learning and growing and changing. the facts of the doctor have been immutable. they are from the planet gallifrey, in the constellation of kasterberos, etc etc. we have seen the timewar and gallifrey coming and going like someone doing the hokey kokey. we know the doctor's grief and the doctor's story.
to learn that all of that is a construction based on a forced regeneration to childhood, and uncountable lost memories that obscure lifetimes of pain and torture, well that is an easy concept to rail against. it makes the premise of the show a lie, the bildungsroman a farce.
but I like it.
we learn it through the eyes and the voice of the master, who has spent his entire lifetime orbiting the doctor like a twin star. in it, he discovers that his childhood is a lie and he takes it out on the doctor, on gallifrey, on the universe (because he can no longer be to the doctor, what the doctor is to him).
it is loud and it is dramatic and it is angry. in the master's reaction, I see the fan reaction.
It is anger and it is dismissal. The master sees that the doctor (inadvertently) has changed the DNA of the timelords, and so he destroys them and remakes them as cybermasters in his image.
I don't think we've really seen the doctor respond to it yet (I'm working off memory here ngl).
But the doctor has spent their life being a mediocre timelord, being a rebel, an outcast (sometimes president). They needed the master's help to get through school.
Idk there's just something in realising that the doctor was set up to fail in the academy, in timelord society, because they're not really a timelord, but the base model. But throughout the series, they have been held to the expectations of one, with no accommodations made for the fact that the doctor cannot do things like a timelord can.
the doctor can regenerate seemingly unlimited times, but the council still tortures 11 with it. the doctor is not a genetically modified shabogan, but is still treated like one.
sure, the doctor was something else, someone else (still called the doctor), before we and the master knew them, but that's not our doctor.
our doctor is the byproduct of a hidden experiment, turned into a timetot.
What's the line?
'he'll never make a timelord'
If we see the memories again, they're just more fodder for angst (because we really cannot keep hashing out the time war). But our doctor is still our doctor, and we just get to see them learn that they're still themself. That the doctor is still the doctor, no matter who or what they really are.
and then maybe they'll learn to not hold their shitty telepathy in such direct contrast to the master's.

CHAPTER 109 OF TBHK!
I love how Tsu’s feet is just kicked up, like always. I find it so hilarious because people are calling him fruity💀.
Fruity a** pose.
Him and his brother, omg.
The bestie look, the look of secret telepathy I knew I would see it from them. I really want to see it from the Yugi twins too. Like, twin telepathy, then saying stuff at the same time/doing something in sync, maybe as humans people get them mixed up or they swap for the day. I always imagine them just being silly stereotypical twins.
Yes Teru is pissed.
Also Mirai not being able to read is funny to me.
In an au where they are alive, in my aus where they are all in the Near Shore, she just has dyslexia.
Tsu’s smug smile, enjoying his ambiguity and unknowing-ness. Just a drama king in disguise and wants to mysteriously introduce himself.
Mr. B**ch. Step forward.
Jesus.
They for real called him out. Can’t even claim it’s bs.
I didn’t realize this before, but the fact Tsukasa is surprised is really funny.
Because if you think about it, Hanako has been acting more like how he was as a human, ‘Amane’, than he is as a supernatural, as ‘Hanako’. Being embarrassed for himself.
The Amane Tsukasa knew was not perverted, and if he was then he probably kept that to himself, instead of Hanako, who outwardly acts as a perv.
“Amane, you want to do pervy stuff?” - 🫢
Tsukasa, as the very non-perverted person he is, must actually be shocked that his dear old twin brother would be and want to do such a thing. Maybe not disgusted like Teru and Akane obviously is, but since that’s not a part of Amane he know he will hold this in his memory bank. Now he knows you’re a pervert Amane. He’ll probably never let you ‘live’ this down.
She just a little baby, she can’t even reach over the thing!
Her first time in court she was only 3 years old.
I wonder when she’ll turn back to normal?
I love love love Akanene, I’m sorry y’all.
But c’mon, HE’S DEFENDING HER, STICKING UP FOR HER, WANTING HER TO WIN HER CASE.
Platonic or not, they are the sh**.
In the MangaUp translation it said “Do you really think I’m a sociapath?” ( Or something like that ) He definitely is.
Not Tsu saying he would. Everyone’s reading him like an open book, omg. 😭
Akane has nothing to say.
The way he just smiles silently, looks up to see if his fellow criminals will defend him, even a little. Not even Nene did though.
C’mon Teru, Akane was expecting a message of love. Whatever, they’re the yaoi ever.
Pose of innocence.
Then rats himself out.
He can’t help his brutal honesty.
The word ‘smithereens’ is something I don’t want to hear.
Feed him to the owls is crazy.
I love characters who talk in first person when addressing themselves. Doesn’t Tiara also do that?
Totally random, but Tiara and Mirai would be besties.
And Tsu smiling without concern.
I cannot be the only one who is dissatisfied that something didn’t happen to him?
Like really, we could have seen what the Tsu of TBHK future was, we could have seen him disappear/die. And I love him with all my heart, but you cannot admit that that would not be a plot turner, or exciting to see something bad happen to him.
He just had to use that little sprinkle of hope, the power of what? F**king friendship? Loyalty to carry out his job? From thin air.
He’s still amazing though.
Was he yelling as Amane, the caring big brother, or Hanako, the leader of the mysteries who used his twin powers to predict what Tsu was going to do and knew it was going to lead to something bad? Maybe both.
Also, is this just a general warning, or will this have consequences later?
Signature move I guess.
Jii-san. Says the person who doesn’t care for supernaturals, calling the supernatural that tricked and got him involved with the school mysteries, ‘grandpa’..
Let us just hope Akane will survive the next chapter ok?
I wonder if his body is actually different from his human body though? Does he actually have gears inside of him? Or is Tsu just making assumptions.
But, wasn’t he in Clock Keeper form when he got a hole stabbed in his chest in the severance arc?
Oh god.
Whatever, I’m just gonna place my bets that Tsukasa will somehow be stopped. Probably not by Akane though, he’s the weakest school mystery and can’t even stand a chance against Teru.
Nice chapter, I was honestly expecting jail time.

🍄🍬🌿🧩 Truth or Dare!
"🍄 ⇢ share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings"
uhmm... hmmm... hmmm... i don't think i can pick one pair, lol. i'm gonna pick. a few.
i'll preface this by saying i'm a canon purist 99% of the time, so when i have a headcanon, it's because i think i can defend it very well with evidence from the source material.
Star Trek - Jim and Spock share a mental link that was created by accident and allowed intermittent empathy/mild telepathy of both a conscious and subconscious nature. this is evidenced in several episodes, but a particular moment on the bridge in The Immunity Syndrome is my solid basis for this. (I promise I'll keep writing "Always Will"... Star Trek is the fandom of my heart. I'll come back to it. I promise.)
Kim Possible - (angst alert! tw: infant death. tw: child death. tw: miscarriage. i hope i did that right...) Drakken and Shego had twins that didn't survive. The event brought them closer together and made them re-think their priorities... This is post-canon when they were dealing with the good vs. evil issues already, and the only thing they knew for sure was they wanted to be together. This event also led them to realize...they want to be parents. (Yes, my fic "Rekindling" is in fact, headcanon...)
Soul Eater - I haven't posted a fic about this one yet so I'm leery to share it... But a story is already in the works. And I'll be very, very vague... Stein's "experiments" on Spirit were extremely mild and rapidly turned into something else... Something Stein was doing to cover for Spirit, to protect him from something else going on in his life... And that's where I'm leaving that because I want it to be a surprise when I post the story! But a couple people I've told might guess this, heheh. (No title for this story yet... Titles are my worst enemy.)
"🍬 ⇢ post an unpopular opinion about a popular fandom character"
Spirit Albarn did not cheat on his wife. 😎 I'll die on this hill. In a diff post than the one I link, I compared him to Greg Universe (of Steven Universe). The authors present both as characters you want to hate, who you question, who look like lousy fathers. But slowly the story starts to unfold and you realize...there's more here than what was presented on the surface. And maybe the surface was a lie all along. I use that comparison because most people seem to get it with Greg. But only a few people get it with Spirit. That's fine. It's my headcanon; it doesn't have to be yours. And I enjoy other ppl's headcanons very much. But you did ask.
"🌿 ⇢ give some advice on writer's block and low creativity"
this is where the whole... 'write for yourself' thing, comes into play. i've actually seen a lot of tumblr discourse about this recently... write for yourself! people say. but, we share creations out because...we want people to see them. we are writing for ourselves, and then sharing them...
here's what i'm learning. my motivation to create has to be for myself, in the grand scheme. it's fine to create things here and there for others. and i personally love gifting fanfic. but if your goal when you go into creating is... 'i'm going to tailor this story so this person will like it,' or, 'i'm gonna post this and i can't wait till this person comments!' that's when you're in danger... you're not creating for yourself anymore. now your satisfaction is going to come from...what that person thinks, whether or not they comment, how deep is their comment...
your satisfaction has to come from responding to your own creative drive.... i suppose that's where the advice starts. make sure your motives are in the right place. and... hey, if the creativity is sated? allow yourself to rest! as i'm writing this (it's being queued so, not coming out near the same day it was asked), my writing well is a bit dry. you might want to create, and feel bad you're not doing so... but it's okay to rest! if your mind just wants to daydream but the hands don't want to write the story or draw the piece right then... just let yourself be. allow yourself that space. i think you'll find creativity is better for it in the long run.
'but i'm worried my followers will be disappointed?' now, there you're not creating for you again... if they're friends, they'll still be there. if they're just...a random number in your stats, then again... your motives aren't in the right place. i'm a firm believer in...don't base your self-worth on internet stats. it's just not something i can get onboard with. your value is not determined by number of views, comments, reblogs, etc...
"🧩 ⇢ what will make you click away from a fanfiction immediately?"
ahhhh hmmm.... i haven't done any immediate clicks in awhile. i'd say if something squicks me pretty suddenly. but blessedly, with AO3 tagging, i can often avoid accidentally running into those things.
wanna be clear though, writing is in art itself and sometimes... well, i'll give an example. i read a fic not too long ago with a twist ending. it is the sort of thing i would not have read had i known. but, had they tagged for the twist it would have ruined the story. so i was not bothered by the lack. i personally would have done the same. am i haunted by what i read? yes. but storytelling is its own art and well...yeah. it's not like in picking up a physical book we're gonna get the tag warnings.
that was slightly off topic, uhhh... i think mostly just if one of my squicks shows up i'll click away. something that's not my thing. and depending on how good the fic is, i'll try to push past it. but if it keeps happening... like there was one long, long multi-chap where main char was kidnapped and tortured and my poor li'l happy-ending heart didn't realize until i was fairly deep in that the whole point of the fic was torture that just got worse and worse... closed that one, never finished.
oh okay but one thing... if a story is VERY out of character, then i'm not interested. like.... the whole point in fanfic is to see more of the character so if it doesn't read like them, then... yeah. that's actually probably the most immediate thing for me. i can handle poor grammar and formatting and english-second-language writers and new writers who are learning the craft... all of that is fine. long as the character is in character, i'm pretty game to read most things.
thanks for the ask!!!!

May I have sun-drown-patrol Ashfur facts?!?
And what would Bramble be going through with his sis missing, and Cloud and Fern freaking out with their little brother gone? (Honestly would not want to be in Thunderclan the morning those two realize Ashfur is gone, tbh. Like Cloud realizes first then barges into the nursery and asks Fern if she's seen him?)
Ok, here goes my pitch for Sundrown Patrol Ashfur AU:
The Lineup!
As I said yesterday, a fully developed 6-character dynamic with its 15 unique two-way relationships is a tall order for most writers. However, with Ashfur here to go through a very specific arc about taking life at his own pace there is more thematic reason to have both Squirrelpaw the feisty young child that follows Ashfur wherever he goes and Crowpaw the almost warrior who by virtue of his rank is still not afforded quite the status of peer by the others. Stormfur may have to be the one to go instead, but he's hard to write out without also taking out his story. But really would it be that big of a loss to shed the baggage of the Tribe?
However, a point in favor of keeping him around: I want Feathertail to be a meddie. Stormfur's protectiveness of her may be more understandable in this situation, as she would presumably be worse equipped for combat and very important for the Clan to keep safe.
It is honestly a glaring omission that StarClan didn't send a doctor alongside them and the fact Leafpaw and Squirrelpaw just so happened to have twin telepathy for the one incident where they needed medical attention is such a transparent author convenience. Plus, I dig the idea that this similarity between Leafpaw and Feathertail could've fueled the later fiasco with Crowfeather.
I'll have to think more on it. Regardless Tawnypelt still goes in ShadowClan's name.
The dynamic!
I see Ashfur having trouble opening up to Feathertail and Tawnypelt but also desperately wanting to because his only other option is hanging out with the apprentices. I see him being intimidated by them, their reputation and rank preceding them. The struggle here will be in realizing they're regular cats like him, dealing with matters of young adulthood like love or learning to be autonomous or feeling aimless much like him. But it will also be a bond rooted in how the times they grew up in affected them in a similar way, a way the cats coming of age now like Crowpaw or Squirrelpaw struggle to wrap their head around with emotionally.
With Squirrelpaw and Crowpaw I see him growing from annoyance and a desire to distance himself from them to relating strongly to the awkwardness and liminality of their experience. It is something he hasn't quite left behind himself and which much as he wants to shed by force he has to come to accept and dwell on in order to move beyond it. While I don't see him becoming quite as close friends with this pair as with the previous, it is not for it less important to his self-actualization.
Back home!
I think you may be misremembering or mixing up AUs by calling Ashfur Cloudtail and Ferncloud's little brother. He's Ferncloud's twin and Cloudtail isn't that much older than them that I'd count him not part of the litter at least emotionally. I don't think the freakout would be that severe, at least until Ash has been gone for a good part of the day.
But anyway, the Brambleclaw of it all! I think the best route to take him if he's being left behind is to build him up for the back half of the arc. You could have him with an apprentice and have him be an ally of Firestar in this tumultuous time to better justify his rise to deputyship. You could use his worry over Tawnypelt's disappearance to build up his turn towards Hawkfrost and his other Tigerkin family. You could even show in the ways in which he acts as he grows in importance within this Clan the early signs of who he'd become.
My implementation of this idea would have Bramble getting his own Side B kind of super edition à la Hawkwing's Journey while the first three volumes of the arc focus on the journey and migration squarely from the Sundrown Patrol's perspective. This way we free up page count in the main arc and really give Bramble's side the space to breathe and to really develop him as a solid antagonist.

Maiar Power Activated!
So P1 is how they all look like when their powers are in use. P2 is their looks under usual circumstances. Below is my explanation and some headcanons.
Melian: the reason all these peredhil have powers :D
Power of singing, healing, hypnosis, telepathy, future-seeing
The Girdle is just hypnosis and telepathy but on a very large scale. She has other forms, including one which is just a huge human-size nightingale, and another one with human body and nightingale head, kinda like Horus in Egyptian mythology.
Lúthien: oh the fairest of all who put down Morgorth by singing
Power of singing, hypnosis, telepathy, disguise
Of course, all these powers are very effective against Morgorth. The thinner and brighter halo represents Melian, and the other represents Thingol. The powers are retained in her second and mortal life, and she mimicked her mother’s girdle and made a similar but much smaller one around where she and Beren lived together, which was why the Fëanorians never found them.
Dior: poor guy died before we can find out if he’s mortal or not
Power of hypnosis, telepathy
He used it against Celegorm during the second kinslaying, and killed him while he was distracted. He also used it against Maedhros and made him saw Dior as Fingon, which unfortunately actually pissed Maedhros off and drove him deeper into a mad killing spree.
Elwing: from young princess to saving the day
Power to transform into a white bird
The end of her hair turned white after her first time transforming during the third kinslaying. Became more and more experienced with it as Eärendil sails vingilot towards Valinor, since she had plenty time on the ship and there’s really not much to do. Likes to sit on Eärendil’s head, shoulders or arms, and prefers head the most. Since Eärendil’s hair is already always puffy and messy, she made a bird nest on his head with his hair. He enjoys having her on his head a lot, and pets her wings sometimes, but gets bitten from time to time.
Elrond: my personal favourite, needs a hug very badly
Power to shine the light of Eärendil and future-seeing
He sees future with only left eye, so the future vision is overlapped with the reality seen by his right eye. It’s sometimes quite traumatising, seeing for example someone’s face on their dead corpse and right in front of him alive at the same time. Picked up the habit of covering his marking during his time in Lindon, as every elf and human are extremely curious towards him————son of the legendary Eärendil, with a face looking like Lucien. He’s tired of everyone asking him to show them the marking or even show them the halo, which is tiring to use and not so under his control at the time. In time the curiosity from those around him died down and he learned to control the halo better, but still kept the habit from that time. The detailed description of his halo is here:
Elros: sometimes I can’t believe he and Elrond are twins
Power of to glow the light of Eärendil and healing
I really like the idea that “the hands of a king are the hands of a healer” came from the Maia power of the Númenorean Kings inherited from Elros. Atheleas is canonically brought to middle-earth by Númenoreans, so here is THE first atheleas————on Elros’ head. With Elrond’s help (since he’s better at plants and medicine than Elros) they were able to transfer some of the plant from his head to fuse with another plant. Elros later named it atheleas/asëa aranion. Since the source of atheleas’ healing power is the same as that of the Númenorean kings, they work better in the hands of those kings. Also, Elros was able to gather human followers during the War of Wrath fairly well because of his god-like healing powers. ( A bit like how Jesus gathers followers through healing people with miracles) And of course, his powers were also retained like Lucien’s after he chose a mortal life.
A bit more on the twins:
Elros has healing powers, so Elrond had to study healing and medicine to achieve as much healing as Elros can with a lift of his hand, while Elrond has future-seeing powers, so Elros had to study strategies and politics to achieve as much comprehension as Elrond can with a blink of his eye. (Study from Maglor and Maedhros respectively actually lol) And btw I didn’t draw it here since these are just busts, but Elros has a similar “halo” that glows the light of Eärendil as well, but it’s around his right wrist when using, instead of on the head like Elrond’s, and it “glows” instead of “shines” like Elrond’s. His more-like-a-bracelet-halo can drive evil and darkness out of a victim better, while Elrond’s can repulse evil and darkness away from a combatant better.
Arwen: oh the evenstar the end and beginning of an age
Power of future-seeing
Not as good as her Ada. The top star on her forehead represents Elrond, the bottom one is Aragorn, and the middle one is the same as her evenstar necklace. Doesn’t like to wear circlets, or at least those that cover her forehead, likes to show her marking, unlike her Ada. This is because she was raised in Imladris and Lothlorien, and basically everyone close already know how her father’s marking came to be, and was not too curious on hers, but only complimented and took as usual. So she would actually be a bit flattered to see someone interested in hearing the reason behind it.
Eldarion: the re-combining of the bloodline of the twins
Power of healing
It’s interesting that the bloodline of Elrond should enhance the power from the bloodline of Elros. So, he actually has a stronger healing power than Aragorn or his ancestors, but he should be the “anomaly” in the line of kings. His descendants would not have the extra boost in powers, just the usual level of “king’s hand is healer’s hand” with some better at it, and some worse.

what we were, what we are | part 3.
Summary: The worst thing that ever happened to Y/N Lupin was getting sent to Azkaban for a crime she didn’t commit. The second worst thing was when she got out on parole and not because her name was cleared. Trying to get her life back proves difficult when everyone has moved on into the present while she only has memories of the past.
Warnings for the Series: angst, smut
Pairing: james potter x black!reader, james potter x lupin!reader, sirius black x black!reader, sirius black x lupin!reader
Word Count: 4.3k
Previous Part | (Series Masterlist)
You went to breakfast in the Great Hall when school was back in session after winter break. It was with hesitance. No Auror had escorted you from Malfoy Manor to Hogwarts, letting you use the Floo Network all on your own. You wanted to think that it might have been a good thing. The sting operation had been a failure but that was on your end. You thought they were getting Voldemort over Christmas. They informed you that they were getting him when they felt the time was right now that you gave them an idea of what his daily routine looked like and his favorite disguises.
However, nothing had been said about your trial. No updates, not even an offhand comment. Sirius started to raise his hand and wave to you but thought better of it after seeing the wrinkle between your brows as you scowled at your own shoes.
“Moons, you’re not going to do anything about your sister?”
Remus looked up from his reading for one moment to see you pacing the entirety of their dorm room. You looked up from scowling at your shoes to give him a small smile. Even though you weren’t twins the two of you definitely had weird twin telepathy. You went back to scowling and Remus went back to reading.
“She’s fine, Pete. That’s (Y/N)’s thinking face.”
“Thinking? She looks like she’s going to kill someone.”
You stopped pacing for a moment. “Remmy, how bad do you think it would be?”
“I don’t know. That’s the problem. What if it triggers the lycanthropy, what if you turn out like me?”
That made the other boys sit up. While they hadn’t known you and Remus for very long, it was almost the end of second year when they had figured out Remus’ big secret. And when James had blabbed about knowing the truth, you and your brother didn’t hide it. So why hide yours and for so long? Sirius’ eyes squinted as he voiced what the other boys were thinking, albeit in his crude way.
“But (Y/N) only has one time of month.”
James and Peter struggled to keep their leaves under their tongue as they laughed. You stopped pacing long enough to chuck a pillow at Sirius’ face. Three of the Marauders listened intently as you explained that you and Remus shared a room when you were younger. Fenrir didn’t just go after Remus, he went after you as well. But your screaming when Remus was bit had alarmed your parents that when they raced to your room, the only thing Fenrir could do was scratch at you.
The Marauders had alway assumed the scars on your left hand were from Remus. You turned your back on them and lifted your hair. A very large scar near the base of your skull could be seen. You had tried to stop Fenrir from continuing his scratches at your head.
With a frustrated sigh, you plopped down on Sirius’ bed. The raven hair boy scooted on his knees towards you. He turned your head and squished your cheeks together until you opened your mouth. With great care, he stuck one of the extra leaves they had under your tongue.
“I’ve read everything out there since we knew about your little furry problem, Moons—”
“You read?”
You almost choked on your leaf at your brother’s comment. Sirius rolled his eyes and continued like nothing was said.
“Nothing about scratches turning into full blown lycanthropy, you’ll be fine (Y/N). Maybe a little more wolfy but fine. So stop worrying so hard.” Sirius nodded in content as his thumbs smoothed out the wrinkle between your eyebrows.
You sat at your spot at the staff table and focused solely on your food. Sirius, James, and Remus were watching you with intensity. You ate even less than normal, chewing the same bite of food over and over again without noticing that you were doing so. Because Voldemort knew about him, Remus had no worries about sending you letters of the break. Almost all of them were apologies. But he honestly became worried when you hadn’t responded to a single one.
There was nothing that raised any alarms. He couldn’t see any bruising, no red marks, nothing that would indicate Tom had hurt you. You left your seat to move in front of where Remus was. He just stared at you for a moment, realizing that he could no longer read you by just your face. You held out two pieces of paper.
“The Quidditch World Cup is this summer, do you want to go with me?” You looked at the other two men. “I’m sorry but Tom doesn’t kno— he’d be suspicious if I asked.”
The other two men shook it off, knowing that you really didn’t have a choice. The corners of Remus’ mouth pulled up a little at the fact that you even invited him anywhere. At the same time, he was a bit ashamed of himself. Why did it feel like you were reaching out to him instead of the other way? It should have been the other way around. He was the one who should be trying to get back in your good graces. Remus just nodded as he took one of the tickets. You looked at him with confusion when he replaced the ticket with some buttered toast in your hand.
“You’ve barely eaten this morning.”
He watched your eyes wander back over to your own plate as if you hadn’t noticed that what he said was true. You took a bite. The furrow in your eyebrow that Sirius had noticed came back. Remus still couldn’t tell what the problem was. With some reluctance, you looked over at James.
“You don’t still have any of my stuff, do you?” you whispered. “From Godric’s Hollow?”
James tensed up. You guys had just moved out of a flat and into that house that all your stuff was barely out of moving boxes when you got taken to Azkaban. It had been so easy to just make it all disappear with the swish of his wand. It had been so easy to sell the house despite the fact that you guys went halves on buying it because you insisted on wanting to feel like you contributed even though he was more than happy to provide for you. He didn’t even move far away from the place. The neighborhood was amazing so of course he settled with his family there.
“I’m so sorry,” he said, voice cracking as the new familiar sadness washed over your face. “I’ll pay for whatever you need. Alright, sweetheart?”
You and James both cringed at the pet name. It had slipped out of his mouth on instinct. He had to do everything in his power to stop from reaching out to you when you started to shake your head at the pet name. It was a mistake on his part but it hurt you so much.
“You don’t have to,” you said. “You really don—”
“Ms. Lupin.”
You turned around at the sound of the voice. The Marauders watched with steely expressions at the Aurors coming your way. The entire Great Hall had fallen silent. The tremors that Remus had unfortunately become accustomed to see on you turned into full blown shaking. It was stupid of him but Remus reached for his wand just in case.
“Ms. Lupin, your presence is being requested at the Ministry.”
You followed them, not like you really had a choice. As you left, Filch and another Auror entered the Great Hall. Everyone watched in confused silence as a projector was set up and their tables were moved to the sides of the room. The food was left for students to eat but after a few whispers between Dumbledore and the Auror, it was suddenly announced that all classes were canceled. The entirety of the Order sat at the spare tables set up. James looked at his wife in confusion when Lily stepped in. She slipped in between the three Marauders before saying anything.
“Trial. That was all they said before sending everyone not directly involved home to watch. It’s playing in all the pubs so not everyone would storm Hogwarts to watch.”
Voldemort on a projector screen was the last thing anyone, even Lily who had been at the Ministry all day, expected to see. It was fairly quick. The Ministry didn’t really want to do it but after the letters from Remus about demanding a proper trial for you, the last thing they wanted was a reason for Voldemort to be let out of Azkaban.
Students and staff alike watched with actual interest at Voldemort’s trial and then all the Death Eaters. The Marauders couldn’t help but sneer when Peter was called up. Others were surprised but not quick to assume Peter was suddenly on Voldemort’s side. His lie about staying a rat out of fear of Death Eaters coming after him again was believable enough.
You could be seen in a tiny corner of the screen. The only thought going through all three men’s heads was to hug you tight and not let go, all while telling you it was okay. But instead, they could only watch your Ministry-assigned lawyer give you a pat on the shoulder. Sirius frowned.
He would’ve hired the best lawyer in the wizarding world if you had said something. You didn’t have money, sure, but he had the entire Black fortune. He stopped focusing on you and onto the very loud, open argument between some Ministry members.
“Suppose he is one of You-Know-Who’s supporters, it is very likely that using Veritaserum wouldn’t give us an accurate portrayal if he is a skilled wizard,” Amelia Bones said. “Or another supporter could aid in the altering of memories.”
“Then what are we going to do?” Barty Crouch Sr. asked. “In regards to Ms. Lupin, we need—”
Your lawyer stood up.
“In regards to my client, the best witness would be her. She’s been in Azkaban all these years without a way to perform magic. Even if she was working for He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, she was caught off guard the night she was arrested that there was no chance to begin working on memory alteration.”
Amelia looked at where you were seated. She sighed heavily at noticing your eyes flit to every Auror in the room with lots of nervousness. It didn’t take much for her to be swayed to your favor. Seeing Peter Pettigrew alive was enough for her.
“Is it safe? Is it safe to force Ms. Lupin to relive memories if she has been innocent this entire time?”
“There isn’t much of a choice,” your lawyer said. “Or this will be a long trial of he said she said.”
It was put to a vote and after considering the circumstances all members were in favor of using your memories to show the truth. You gently raised your hand after sitting in the chair in the center of the room. Amelia gently encouraged you to speak up.
“There are holes in some memories… the dementors,” you admitted.
“W-w-we are aware of that, Ms. Lupin, we’ll just do the best we can.”
As they set up a pensieve that would allow everyone watching on the screens set up around the wizarding world to watch your memories, your lawyer whispered to you that it was good you had holes in your memory. It would make you seem more believable. You frowned as you took a potion to open up and unlock all your memories. You were believable.
“(Y/N)? We don’t think they’ll find it suspicious?” Dorcas asked at the Order meeting. “That’s like sending in Lily.”
“I can do it,” you piped up. No one in the Order ever liked to give you a chance on anything.
Everyone seemed unsure but ultimately agreed. Without hesitation, you met with Fenrir Greyback. He smiled in a sickly sweet fashion as you both sat across from each other in a muggle diner.
“How’s the full moon treating you and your brother?”
You sipped your coffee. “That’s what I wanted to talk to you about. I’ve heard through the bushes that Tom Riddle— don’t tell me you flinch at his name too— anyway, Tom is promising refuge of sorts to werewolves. Is that true?”
Fenrir leaned back. “Free reign on muggles, mudbloods, and half-bloods, more than just a little taste.”
“And he means it?”
“The Dark Lord has given his word about it.”
“And you believe him?”
“As long as we don’t touch his precious purebloods. Exceptions can be made for blood traitors, I have every reason to believe him.”
“Then I want in.”
Fenrir’s brow raised. You knew it would take a little bit to be convincing but you had planned it out. Remus was having a hard time getting any good jobs. He was discriminated against left and right. You lied that the scratch caused people to think you would turn at any moment. A single conversation about how Fenrir ruined your life, not only boosted his ego but gave him confidence to bring you into Death Eater ranks. He told you when the next meeting was and that he would put in a good word for you.
The Hogwarts’ staff watched as you gripped your wand when watching Fenrir’s eyes lock on one of the muggle waitresses who was getting off the midnight shift.
Your eyes closed tightly and you tried not to cry as you let him slip out of the booth and go after her, knowing that you would immediately blow your cover if you did so. You waited only five minutes, not able to bear waiting any longer, before running into the back alley that she was in. She looked awful to put it mildly. You pulled the woman into your lap and held her face in your hands.
“Shhh, shhh, it’s alright. Just drink this.”
“What was that?” she asked with a shaky voice as she gulped down the large amount of wolfsbane potion that you put to her mouth. You didn’t even know if it would work but you hoped that pouring enough wolfsbane to kill a werewolf down her throat right after being freshly bit would be enough to keep her human.
“A nightmare, it was an absolute nightmare.”
She nodded as you healed her wounds, not even caring about using magic in front of a muggle. The woman seemed alright. Not perfect but alright. You kept track of her until the next full moon, relieved at seeing nothing happen.
~~
“Are you sure?” Severus asked you. “These will be difficult to get rid of.”
You turned to look at Severus who was kind enough to invite to his home even though you two had not been friends at Hogwarts. Being the only double spys, it became easy for you two to bond. You nodded severely.
“Everyone else has it but us. They will notice if we don’t.”
You kept scratching at where the Dark Mark was now on your forearm. James came around your kitchen island. He was cooking while you were just sitting on the counter and watching him. He kissed the scars on your hand before kissing the ugly tattoo.
“Stop scratching at it, sweetheart. You’re only going to give yourself a bruise.”
“It’s fucking awful, James. Severus doesn’t even know if we’ll be able to remove them after the war.”
“You can always get it covered.” He slotted himself between the open space of your legs. “You’ll definitely get a chapter in the history books. Badass Order spy gets a Dark Mark to fully convince Voldemort that she’s on their side.”
You huffed. “And then a century later when I’m dead they’ll just call me a whore.”
“Hmm?”
You sighed. “Tom—”
“Since when did you call him by his real name?”
“I’m trying to tell you.”
“Sorry.”
“Tom… wants me to be his, asked me to… I agreed.” You started playing with your ring when James said nothing. “I get it if you want to call the wedding off at least for now, or forever, but he’s already told me things no one else knows and I think the Order can really use this.”
James’ hands covering yours cut off your rambling. “One, you’re still a spy not a whore no matter how you’re getting the information. Two, I’m not calling off anything. Sweetheart, we get married in a week and we move into our new house in two weeks. This whole flat is nothing but boxes. I’m not unpacking again unless it’s our new home. What you have to do has nothing to do with my feelings for you.”
James stiffened up as he saw a younger him tell you that he would love you forever. He broke that promise with little regard past himself.
“You need to clean up, Remmy.”
“And you need to stop nagging,” Remus retorted but picked up all the laundry scattered around his flat anyway.
He suddenly coughed when you knocked the breath out of him trying to give him a hug. It had been so long since you saw your brother properly. You were around Voldemort almost all the time and could really only send letters. Remus hugged you back.
“He has horcruxes. Five of them.”
Your brother froze. “What? How do you know, ho—”
“Is my information ever wrong?”
Remus shook his head because you were right. Every piece of information you got to the Order was correct and he didn’t know how you got Voldemort to tell you.
“He’s going to make it six. He wants to turn his snake into one but… he’s waiting for the prophecy to come true. He wants to use that death to make his sixth one, like a victory or something.”
“What prophecy?”
“I don’t know yet, Lucius interrupted us.”
Order members started to squirm in their seats as they watched every interaction between you and Voldemort. Every memory tended to end the same way, you crying to James with a locked bathroom door between you guys until you felt like Voldemort was gone from your body. The worst was you crying about the ring because he proposed. Actually the worst was when you scooted away from James in your shared bed because you felt bad that he was effectively sharing you with Voldemort.
Everyone returned from the trial break with lots of questions about the truth. Lunch came around and even though no one was obligated to return to the Great Hall to continue watching the trial, they all did. Everyone sat up straighter when the next memory showed Peter.
When the Order meeting had ended, you pulled Peter to the side. “We have a problem, Pete.”
“What is it?”
“There’s a spy here.”
Peter stuttered out a what.
“Tom was telling me something that he shouldn’t have known about. Something he was surprised that I didn’t know about. It’s not Severus, I know it’s not but it’s someone here.”
“Should we say something?”
“No,” you said. “No, we can only trust Remmy, Pads, and James. What you need to do is switch with me.”
“Switch?”
“Hiding Frank and Alice, becoming the Secret Keeper. They’re the only ones in the Order that are married and childless, Tom’s convinced the baby to kill him is going to be theirs.”
“Alice isn’t even pregnant.”
“He knows. He wants to make sure that never becomes an issue.”
“I’m supposed to meet Alice today to know where they’ve moved but you need to do it.”
“Me?”
“They’ll easily torture it out of the other boys. Remmy’s too obvious, James and Sirius might tell the spy on accident since they go on the most missions. They won’t think of you. You’re close to us, not Frank or Alice.”
“Why can’t you keep doing it?”
“I think Tom doesn’t fully trust me yet. I swear I taste something in my pumpkin juices whenever we all eat dinner but I don’t know if it’s Veritaserum or not. I don’t want to risk the Longbottoms’ life, I do—”
Everyone watched the memory go fuzzy before turning into smoke just like a bunch of your earlier memories. It was another memory partially eaten up by dementors. Lots of memories tended to do that. It wasn’t lost on James, Lily, or even the oblivious Harry, how your memories with James were fully intact. Sometimes they got blurry but it was like you fought with the dementors to keep the memory whole. Sirius and Remus noticed as well, wondering if anyone outside of their friends also picked up on it.
Remus’ jaw clenched so tightly that he thought he might break his own teeth when the memory of you being arrested at the scene of the crime showed up. You had been calling out to him.
A few times you called your parents’ names but you had mainly been calling for him. Him and James, only for neither of them to ever show up. The entirety of Hogwarts looked on in horror at seeing the inside of Azkaban for the first time.
You broke off a bit of the charcoal tray that your food came on and hid it in the corner of your room. A shaky hand made the first tally mark followed by ten more. It had been eleven days. Eleven breakfasts, you only got a shitty breakfast for the entire day, and that was how you knew. You were whispering to yourself that someone would come to get you. Someone had to. You shifted into your Animagus form, a fox to match your old Patronus before it had changed to a stag, and curled up to sleep.
Christmas came around and there was still no one there. You couldn’t even save yourself. The bars on your cell were spaced out just enough to fit your fox form through but there was nowhere to go. You had no wand, Azkaban was in the middle of dangerous ocean water and high up on a cliff, and it was impossible to turn back into wizard form to apparate because the dementors were all around to see it.
The only thing your fox form was useful for was providing a little bit more warmth when you slept. Your eyes went wide when Christmas breakfast of mush came with a roll of brown bread. Water was accompanied with another cup that held butterbeer. Like a feral animal, you scrambled to grab the bread and butterbeer in case it had been a mistake and they didn’t mean to serve it.
The Order watched in horror as you drank the butterbeer so fast that they thought you would choke. You cried as you ripped off chunks of the bread and ate it, chewing the same piece until it was void of all flavor and you were forced to swallow it. Most Order members couldn’t look anymore when you turned to the charcoal drawing of your friends on the wall of your cell and wished them a happy Christmas.
Every Christmas in Azkaban was like that. An extra bit of bread and butterbeer. Of course, it was a trade for an extra sweet memory of yours but you didn’t care. You would do anything for the extra food once a year.
Students felt like they should turn away at seeing your lowest moments. McGonagall wiped at the tears that had fallen at seeing all your Azkaban memories. They were all the same yet different, just like how your days in prison blended.
Seven years of memories of you tallying walls, crying, screaming you were innocent, walking around the cell and talking to imaginary people— imaginary Remus and James the most— followed by more crying when a sudden consciousness that they weren’t actually there seemed to hit you. Seven years of memories of you being fed on by dementors, poking at your Dark Mark and saying you hated it, saying you would actually kill Peter when you got out, begging your brother and husband to at least visit you if no one else would.
But the scariest had been the final four years. In one of the memories, they watched you tell the imaginary Order and the imaginary Marauders that you knew what they thought of you. You knew they hated you. You knew that it didn’t matter anymore.
After that, you only spoke to ask for your daily bathroom break and weekly shower. You only cried when you begged the dementors to not feed on you that day. You simply marked tallies after each delivery of breakfast and then sat in the corner of your room until your limbs were stiff and you would pace once to stretch them out before sitting back in the corner. A shell of a person was what you had become.
The Marauders walked out of the Great Hall before your verdict, once all the memories had been seen. If you were seen as anything but innocent then they didn’t know what they were going to do. You spent twelve years there. And you broke at the end of year seven. They hated themselves. As your brother, friend, ex-husband. They simply hated themselves. A large bottle of firewhiskey was passed between the three of them as they waited in your classroom.
You opened your classroom with shaky hands. Remus was up first. Hugging you to his chest so tightly that you felt like it was a bit hard to breathe. It wasn’t just your brother who couldn’t read your face anymore. You couldn’t read his.
“From now, I’ll always believe you, (Y/N). I promise you that. Always your word first, no one else.”
Sirius and James stayed where they were, sitting on your desk. They waited for you to approach first. You noticed the empty bottle of firewhiskey and they noticed the dried tear stains on your face. They both opened their mouths to apologize again when you spoke up.
“Isn’t it a Moony Night? You guys have to leave soon,” you whispered.
Both men looked at each other. James gave in first.
“Um, you should stay with her Pads. I’ll go with Moony.”

TMNT/Half-mutant au:
!HM=half-mutant!
The boys are the sons of a mutant father and a human mom (hence half-mutant) and they are both master ninjas and Splinter's friends
I don't exactly know what happens to their parents but I know something happens to allow Splinter to adopt and train the boys
This isn't a strictly "2012!TMNT but make them half-mutant" au, there are bits and pieces of Rise!TMNT mixed in there as well, like the boys harnessing their mystic powers (at some point between 10-15 years ago)
(this is so there's room to discover what else they can be used for while giving them time to use them properly)
On top of Rise!Leo's powers, HM!Leo can also use telepathy and foresight/visions/precognition because of a "connection to the old masters" he has (as the leader, he trained the most to better use his Katanas and meditated to help reduce overreactions/emotional outbursts during missions)
(those 2 things somehow fostered the connection)
He also has Melasma instead of the Vitiligo people give human Rise!Leo
(this is a reference to red-eared sliders but if he's one, that means they all are and I don't know what species the dad would be)
(instead of giving myself a headache with this I'm just going to say that the Melasma is present in both forms)
The April in this is pretty much strictly Rise!April
I know how people treat 2012!April (and frankly, I too am a little annoyed with her, but more so with the writers, they shouldn't have included human + mutant relationships, especially if they're technically siblings because that shit definitely needs to stop)
I think that is why I made Leo aroace in this au because he would not want to go near that shit (he thinks romance, in general, gets in the way of missions but he has let his brothers do what they want as long as it doesn't get in the way)
(he knows that they are old enough to do their own thing in that regard)
Leo does have the Usagi chronicles guy (whichever one's closest to being 25, the one everyone ships Rise!Leo with, I can't with names right now)
Oh, and this Donnie and April are just friends but I might give Donnie his own love interest (who will probably be an oc or maybe even Casey if I feel like it)
Ralph has Mona Lisa so they're good (they're still aroace like Leo though, they're also nonbinary)
(Donnie is a demisexual bi-romantic guy, Leo is an aroace trans guy and Mikey is pansexual and gender fluid)
Donnie and Leo are twins, which makes them the cool (color) twins (name courtesy of 10-year-old Mikey), at 25 (currently)
(they were 15 when Leo made the connection with the masters)
Raph and Mikey are 23 and 22 respectively (they were 13 and 12, again respectively, when the connection happened)
As for the "mystic awakening", this was probably not too long after the connection happened (the connection actually helped the boys get these powers in the first place)
Since 2012!Leo canonically had a psychotic episode at some point, HM!Leo has them too, he can't tell if they're visions or not so he's a bit on edge
(Donnie knows this and tries his best to help him)
The boys are all neurospicy/neurodivergent or have other physical and mental issues
Donnie is autistic with sensory issues
Mikey has hyperactive ADHD and dyslexia
Raph has trouble regulating emotions and his roach/bug phobia
Leo (as seen above) is a paranoid schizophrenic (schizophrenia characterized by predominantly positive symptoms of schizophrenia, including delusions and hallucinations which include auditory, visual, and tactile hallucinations/hallucinations dealing with touch) with an anxiety disorder, sensory issues, stuttering, body shakes/aches, a touch of narcolepsy or insomnia depending on the time of day, vision problems (all thanks to the three-month coma, his throat heals though) as well as his leadership trauma
(although all of the boys have trauma because Jesus christ these shows are just trying to kill them at this point)
(Splinter and Donnie were the first to notice everything, in this au he's an excellent sensei and he's actually trying to be their dad too)
(it's a balancing act between moments when their sensei is needed and when they need him to be their dad)
Splinter only started color-coding them and what they owned when they were old enough to tell him their favorite color, before that he either wrote their names on everything or just let them have a free for all
As for clothes, they were color-coded from the beginning, so the boys just picked the color they were wearing as their favorite to make things easier
(I'm trying to find the perfect balance of their personalities from 2012! and Rise! so that's going to be a bit later, it's probably a situational thing like they act differently at home than they do on missions)
Actually, that might be exactly it, and going even further they act differently in front of Splinter as opposed to how they act with each other (when he's not in the room because can you imagine if he heard the conversations they have with each other, holy shit)
Leo is described as "confident but not egotistical" (he has to be a confident leader but he's not as "egotistical" as Rise!Leo), Donnie is smart but caring, Raph may seem to just be a hothead but that's because of something he can't control, however, a more accurate way to describe him is "emotional but still an honorable fighter", Mickey has Dr. Delicate touch and Dr. Feelings so his description would be "goofy but not without room for reality and scaring his brothers sometimes"
Casey isn't a time traveler (like Rise!Casey) but he still has his "pull yourself together" moments with the brothers (April and the boys have to do the same with him)
Besides that, he's mostly based on 2012!Casey
The reason their eyes go white (for lack of a better phrase) is that turtles have a protective membrane over their eyes, although it's clear for normal turtles, their mutant DNA made them white
Donnie's suit is a reference to Rise!Donnie being a soft-shell turtle (in this au it's him being a smart protective boy)
Their "dyed" hair is actually because of their mystic abilities, they used them more when they were teens (because they weren't as good with their weapons as they are now) and it made a higher portion of their hair glow
They still use them (as seen in the presence of the "dye") but not as much because they got better with their weapons (and they are now using them in perfect balance)
The green markings on their skin are supposed to be a reference to them being half turtle-mutant (they also glow when the boys use their mystic powers)
There are these things called "Krang clones"- a subspecies of Krang that can clone/transform into pretty much anyone if they have a sample of their DNA (they usually get this through the person's blood)
(at some point the Foot Clan works with the Krang to make clones of Battle Nexus Champions, including Leo, for their army or whatever)
There are documented alternate dimensions that the boys have gone to at some point (Donnie is, of course, writing all of their findings down)
(the ability to write the certain things that happen in these dimensions requires me to be able to remember what the different series contain)
I do know that D-(20)22 is where HM! takes place with D-(20)12 being 2012!TMNT, D-(20)18 being Rise! and D-(20)03 being the 2003 series
The format basically is: D-*year a certain TMNT! series came out/dimension number*
They only say the last 2 digits (so they'd say D-12, D-18, or D-22 instead of the full-dimension number)

The fandom needs more aus so Im adding one I just made#2
Mp100 au - The whole basis for Reigen and Mob's mentor-mentee relationship is built on a lie that was good for the both of them. Mob needed to know a self-assured adult esper who understood that his powers can be dangerous and has thought about that constructively and productively, and Reigen needs a nephew-best-friend he can help teach and grow so he has a long-term social relation.
So it's a little difficult to think of who would fit the bill for Reigen - if I can figure that out, then I know who would be Mob.
Yusuke would be the one to leave the safe water bottle company and make his own office and lie about having ESP to a kid who needs guidance, I think. But would he break that character once he learned the kid DOES have powers? If he's an adult and assuming he grew up pretty okay (Reigen standards) then I imagine at most that he's having a moment of inner panic abt having lied abt this bc he thought the kid was fibbing. And then he looks at the kid being so hopeful and glad and he folds - he'll roll w it! The kid needs the lie right now.
Oh, Masaru could be a good choice? The very kid that Yusuke saves and dies for in canon! Another thought was Botan in a role-reversal au as well as mp100 au.
Suddenly entranced by the concept of Yukina in the role of Shou. "See you later!" She says with a gentle smile. Anthy Himemiya is that u--
In that case I could see Yusuke as Mob and Shizuru and Botan having dual roles as Reigen (being the mentor: Shizuru, being the goofball w crazy charisma rolls: Botan)
Kuwabara siblings sharing the spot for Serizawa would be neat! They're very sensible in canon, both practice and encourage a normie life of studying and working despite their powers, so Serizawa's problem of finding it extremely difficult to control his powers due to his anxiety feel like a sufficient background for what would push them into a terrorist organisation.
Hina as Soichirou... She's been dead too often in my aus and concepts, Rui usually taking the spotlight, it's time for "oh no it's worse when they Lived". Epic divorce-woman ftw. Rui fulfills Shimazaki's powers of teleportation and knows where Yukina is at all times. She would really like Yukina to just stop trying to convince her mother not to be a terrorist anymore. For plot reasons she'll sometimes help Hina out in her plans if it doesn't negatively interfere w the twins' lives.
Hiei as Takenaka who is distressed abt his sister repeatedly running away to pursue their birth mother who at this point kinda scares him and he's not seen her in years. Also very isolated in being an ESP-kid and having no one else like him to talk to, upset to learn the Telepathy club is a lie. We don't see him for SO MANY episodes and when he returns as the twin brother of the There-are-so-many-things-wrong-with-this-child (Yukina).
Kurama might be part of Claw to help out his mother... Perhaps he is a Serizawa? (Speaking like these are actors for a theatre production) Koenma is the child in claw w the wooden dolls who cries when they get OP-broken.
I love Yusuke btw but I can't stand when a MC from one series is transferred as the MC of a different series for an au simply bc the character is the MC. It's just so automatic. I personally also like to use Mob for drawing studies when deciding how to draw Yukina's expressions and write her thoughts and actions, but it also grates on me to spend more than 10 minutes to just switch all the character roles for the personalities most similar (why not just go watch the original...). This is the hater in me! Sometimes I find her.
#yyh things alternate universes#this is very loosely written I'd like this to b open in case anyone finds this#the dichotomy of “I wanna see more aus of the yhh characters :(” and “I want as little 2 do w the yhh fandom as POSSIBLE only trust mutuals#yyh things#mp100 spoilers#mp100 au

iwtv ep 3 messy thoughts under the readmore
i lovvvve what they have done with the plot around louis' family. can't help but wonder how him getting squeezed out of the azalea will impact grace & her children. bc her husband plays the man (and the son to louis' mom !) but in ep 2 grace says he doesn't have a mind for business... seems like they do depend quite a lot on the de pointe du lac estate, and on louis' occasional help on top. louis calling out to grace, and retreating when she shouts at him to go (after he destroyed the front door !) really says so much about their relationship, i.e how deep it is, and how one-sided it has become, with louis visiting when he remembers to (the way he remembers there's twins when jonah tells him there's a birthday today !!) and expecting things to remain frozen in time while he's absent.
in the script for episode one babette (a kind of early vampirism love interest -- but not quite --in the books) as levi freniere's sister has some of grace's line and i think it was a very very good choice to put it all on grace's account.
i also absolutely adore the characterization that when louis is pushed beyond his limits he goes BIG. it happening in the third episode, after we've seen all the ways he's undermined, attacked, etc. for being black, for being gay, for not being the right son it really does feel cathartic when he just goes ham on the alderman. he simmers until he blows up and i love that for him & pray for those vampires at the theatre who will find out the hard way :/
edit : and the race riots ! that was so hard to watch, and i didn't know about that piece of history at all, but apparently it's based on true events. a reflection of the way anne rice incorporated the fires of new orleans into her novel, but made much more current. sometimes it's a bit awkward and on the nose (in the sense that they really belabour some of the stuff -- esp. in ep 2 imo -- when they could simply show it) but i think the choice to make louis black is so so important...
we didn't get a lot of "present time" this episode & i wonder whether we're going to get more of a plot in the real time with further episodes. i have kind of a nebulous pet theory that we might go from iwtv straight into the queen of the damned plot, which is after all the book where daniel reappears. (what i actually mean is that i have a pet idea of louis being against appearances a kind of distinguished prisoner in the tower. as in rashid says he serves a god, but he doesn't say he serve louis, etc. etc. but i think there's textual elements disproving it & i am just ignoring them (￣m￣)
lestat using his mind powers until he has blood coming out of his ears... very nice to see a physical toll for those. i think so far we have seen flight (but only just kind of floating), telepathy (exploring the thoughts of mortals, but also intervampire communication, even between fledgling and sire if i understand the bar scene correctly), fire (louis :D), a certain amount of mind control (freezing time, putting asleep, marching people out)...
i talk more about louis but i would LOVE to dissect lestat under a microscope. he has anger issues he has abandonment issues he has ego issues he hates his dad he is his dad he's a jock he's a theater kid he does everything for louis and he won't listen to him...amazing
also the claudia show starts next sunday... i cannot wait for my most darling of all :0

Tony Stark was born and raised on Coruscant, son of a powerful weapons mogul. He had only just taken the role of CEO of Stark Industries when the Republic fell and he began building weapons for the Empire. He didn’t question it, he just did what he was best at - building and creating, and reaping the benefits. Years later he is kidnapped by a gang of pirates seeking his tech. This experience, and the horror he went through during it, showed him the truth of the Empire. He closes down weapons manufacturing, but that wasn’t enough, he wanted to do more. He begins to help the rebellion in secret, using his power and wealth to get them what they need. (this verse can also be adjusted to fit prequel or sequel eras as needed.)
FRIDAY
She is an android personally built by Tony Stark. No one knows that she is a droid. She helps him aid the rebellion in ways that he can’t be seen doing.
LUCY QUINZEL
Lucy was born and raised on Nar Shaddaa, nicknamed the “Smuggler’s Moon,”. Lucy never met her parents, who were leaders of one of the planets many ruthless gangs. Instead, she was raised by her aunt, who tried to give her a good life and protected her as much as she could but was killed when Lucy was young. Lucy turned to stealing to survive. Years later she joined a group of pirates, she travels off world with them hoping to one day steal enough to get her own ship.
CONNOR
The most advanced android built by cyberlife, Connor was made to serve and aid The Empire/First Order. He followed orders for a while, slowly developing emotions and empathy. He eventually deviated and escaped to aid the rebels.
WILL GRAHAM
(still a WIP) A Jedi, Will is constantly on the edge between the Light and Dark. He experiences extreme Force Empathy / Telepathy / and visions. This has made him somewhat of an outlier even amongst other Jedi.
JAMES HOLDEN
Holden was a First Lieutenant in the Imperial/First Order Navy, after a disagreement with a superior officer he was given a general court-martial, convicted and discharged from service. He didn’t return home, instead he spent a few years traveling around the outer rim, picking up random jobs. Eventually he joins the rebellion (details of how will be figured out later). He is now captain of the Rocinante, part of the rebel fleet. (how he and the crew come into possession of the Roci is also something that will be figured out later)
NELL CRAIN
(tw for suicide)
Force sensitivity ran in Olivia's family - her mother, her, and then all her kids to some degree. Olivia was not trained and she didn’t want her kids to be taken in by the Jedi. But untrained force sensitives can be dangerous, and of course things go wrong when the children are young. The family moves into a place, not knowing that it rests on a nexus of the dark side. Immediately this starts messing with their heads. Like in the series, Olivia goes a bit crazy and tries to kill the twins, Hugh gets the kids out, and Olivia kills herself before he comes back to get her.
Being exposed to the dark side so young left it’s mark on Nell and she suffers from the consequences of this throughout her life - nightmares, seeing things, and outbursts of the force. As an adult Nell tries to live a normal life but ends up mostly isolated. Nell and her twin brother Luke are the most ‘unstable’ of the kids, even as adults; they have the most problems controlling their force ability which causes a lot of problems for them.
ELIZABETH SWANN
Governor’s daughter, twin, handmaiden, pirate. For eight years Elizabeth, along with her twin sister Tsabin (renamed Sabe), served as handmaidens for Queen Padme Amidala. After her service was done Elizabeth decided to travel, giving in to the wanderlust she always felt. She traveled the mid and outer rim, until she was captured by pirates. Originally, they planned to hold her for ransom, however she struck an accord with her would-be captors. She joined their crew, becoming a pirate. Eventually ((through some plot stuff that I still need to figure out whoops)) she becomes Captain of her own crew, and then is elected leader of the Brethren Court.

Been reading “Will has powers” theories again lately and subsequently thinking about those AUs where the whole Byers family have powers, so here’s all the shit I’ve ever jotted down about my own self-indulgent AU
In general:
I think it’s flexible in the AU what Will’s powers could be in addition to like True Sight because idk what the show has in store for him and I like the idea of Wonder Twins with El, I’m not opposed to Will having similar powers to her (not necessarily all her powers, but the main ones like a form of telekinesis) or just having complementary powers to her (sense-based abilities)
I imagine Joyce and Jonathan would be more likely to have subtle powers, such as lowkey or passive or support/defensive type of abilities than more outright, active, or offensive types. So not exactly stuff like telekinesis; to make up for physical defense, that’s why they’re a gun toting/bat swinging family
In general, I think all three could have varying degrees of supernatural sensitivity and extrasensory perception (ESP) especially when it comes to communicating with each other
Listen the Byers family were MADE for being powers-on-the-down-low kind of people: Joyce not being wrong about shit, Jonathan’s spiel about capturing the right moment and reading others, Will being described as sensitive + every fan theory that he has powers
Will:
Hard to decide because I’ve read too many “Will Byers Has Powers” theories and I liked almost all of them; this section’s gonna be a little less since people have talked a lot about Will already and I wanted to put more thought in Joyce and Jonathan’s powers
But yes, canon stuff like True Sight and spooky UD Spidey Sense, plus having other sensory powers, especially ones have to do with sight; Will being a visuals-associated character in general (he’s an artist, after all)
It going both ways, Will manipulating others’ perceptions similar to Kali/008 creating illusions and Will’s visual perception in particular being able to pick up a lot of things no one is able to
But I’m also open to him having telekinetic-based abilities; fits with parallels to Henry and El, allows him to ‘manipulate’ things as he sees fit, and also straight up telekinesis would be so cool even though it would kinda also break the ‘support/defense’-power-type theme going on with the rest of the family; but out of the three of them, I think Will would be the most likely to have those kinds of powers anyway if that makes sense
Also in the same vein as El restarting Max’s heart, telekinetic healing (like Force healing in Star Wars) is a concept and I’ve seen people consider Will with healing powers; maybe it’ll take some more work and practice, but imagine Will being very detail-oriented and able to nudge cells and accelerate processes to mend wounds and injuries
Joyce:
As their mother, I think Joyce would be the strongest in terms of being capable in a wider range of abilities/techniques in ESP, intuition, and others compared to her sons; it’s like Will is the strongest in visual-based ESP or like Jonathan being able to read deeper into people because that’s, like, their ‘specialty’ or affinity, but they’re not as strong in other areas (basically a case of depth vs breadth)
And she would have scarily good intuition (mother’s intuition™️) that’s off the charts because we’ve seen she’s been right a lot (Will not being dead, magnets, etc.); I think it could also make sense where this kind of powerful ‘instinct’ can feel like a way to segue into Will having his UD Spidey-Sense
This idea could also apply to seguing into other abilities she or her children could have, like empath abilities or telepathy (or both—telempathy) if we want to consider other advanced powers
This post pairing her with claircognizance and clairvoyance
Now, clairvoyance (gaining info via ESP) and precognition (gaining future info) are treated as fairly distinct on the superpower wiki and I think she gets both <3; her precognition would not be extremely OP and detailed, but gives just enough hints to be able to intermingle with her nonsupernatural intuition and reasoning and she can work a lot of things out that way
In general, her abilities wouldn’t be OP if the info just doesn’t spit everything out right away, but can leave a discernible trail for her
Joyce getting nosebleeds or showing exertion from her powers; maybe if she ends up overusing her ESP abilities trying to search for answers or searching for someone like El after she astral projects
Jonathan:
A little like Bella from Twilight’s special ability to describe it lol; basically, I can see him having a strong mental shield that makes him resistant to psychic attacks, having his mind read, etc. so Kali/008’s illusions wouldn’t work on him
I can also see Jonathan being able to create and expand his psychic shields to protect others’ minds, which can fit his older brother-protector role; this leans more towards being proximity-based than remote, so his shields can’t be applied from thousands of miles away (unless you do something with psychic links or whatever idk lol)
So then he’s able to protect others from psychic attacks as well as he can protect himself, and maybe along that vein, he could also hide/‘cloak’ people’s presence from being found through some form of psychic searching/astral projection? (As in they can’t be spied on by people like El)
I like to think maybe he can break people out of trances too (more negation-based techniques of his shielding) but he can’t do shit about ongoing possession (e.g. the Mind Flayer) and he can be overwhelmed by the really powerful if they’re persistent enough (e.g. Vecna/Henry/001)
Jonathan could get a nosebleed if he’s actively protecting a lot of people for a prolonged amount of time, or if he’s greatly concentrating on really reinforcing a shield (especially if it’s heavily under attack)
Imagine Jonathan being able to protect people from V/H/1’s curse (and again V/H/1’s also pretty relentless so it may be a matter of time before he catches Jonathan and wear him down), but because the Byers are in CA, he can’t
Alternative thoughts I’ve had before:
Will having both an affinity for sight and sound based sensory abilities, OR Will for sight and Jonathan for sound, and they inherited the predisposition for sensory abilities from Joyce and her mega ESP/intuition
I’ve seen a post or two on Jonathan having telepathy, and it can also pair well with him “reading people”
Also Jonathan looks like he’s trying to explode Mike with his mind? It’s actually the face of a man who is reading every single thought
Fuck it, maybe all the Byers have lie detection too

Lilith Desdemona's Bio
" I looked into your eyes and saw a world that does not exist. "
Lilith Desdemona - skin-walker, a creature that can transform into any desired animal or human being.
In the Navajo culture, a Skinwalker is a type of harmful witch who has the ability to turn into, possess, or disguise themselves as an animal or a human being. The Navajo believe there are places where the powers of both good and evil are present and that those powers can be harnessed for either. Medicine men utilize these powers to heal and aid members of their communities, while those who practice Navajo witchcraft, seek to direct the spiritual forces to cause harm or misfortune to others. It is said that, in addition to being able to shapeshift, the Skinwalker is also able to control the creatures of the night, such as wolves and owls, and to make them do their bidding. Some are able to call up the spirits of the dead and reanimate the corpses to attack their enemies.
Lilith and her fraternal twin, Crimson, were born to a mother and father who both shared ancient Navajo ancestors. Lilith and Crimson were like night and day. Crimson is the one to study and learn about their family’s history. Lilith on the other hand chose to ignore it as much as she could. Every day, she had to listen to the stories of the Skinwalker gene that ran in their family – the risks that were involved. How children were often triggered by committing a horrible crime such as killing a loved one. How only a special tattoo could save them from being overcome by darkness. Lilith thought it was nothing more than ancient stories to scare children.
Crimson was always the favored daughter, and this caused resentment in Lilith for her sister. At the age of fifteen, Lilith and Crimson got into a heated argument. Lilith had been attempting to sneak out of the house when Crimson caught her and threatened to tell on her. One thing led to another and in a blind fit of rage Lilith shoved her sister over the banister leading to the stairway. Crimson died instantly on impact from a broken neck and busted spine. It was then Lilith’s Skinwalker gene was triggered.
Where there should have been an inner struggle between good and bad, Lilith easily gave into the dark side of the Skinwalker's curse. After learning what she had done – the horrors that awaited, Lilith’s parents banished her from their home and told her to never return.
Lilith has dark brown hair and brown eyes. She is mostly seen with red lipstick that has a darker style. Lilith can be very seductive when she needs to be. She has a very straightforward way of putting things and will not hesitate to make a move.
Recently Lilith’s dreams have drawn her to Santa Carla. She is haunted by a face that has a spirit as dark as her own. She won’t stop until she can track down this creature to who she seems so drawn to.
As of December 2021: Lilith had long since united with the force she was drawn to, Rory Hawthorne, a fellow skin-walker, but whose birthright powers were stripped away when his twin, Leon, killed him in childhood. The two have become fiercely devoted lovers, and haven't left each other's side.
Powers and abilities
Shapeshifting - Skinwalkers can shapeshift into any animal in the world they know of, including humans.

Possession - If a human looks into a Skinwalker's eyes, the Skinwalker can magically steal their skin for their own use.
Witchcraft

ref/expression sheets for two NPCs from my upcoming dnd campaign! everyone say hi to the kingkiller twins! I talked about them a little in the tags on this post, but their full lore is under the cut!
CARRION AND VALENTINE MY BELOVED.......
ok so carrion and valentine have always always always been each other’s biggest supporters in everything. for much of their lives, the only thing they had was each other, so the two are metaphorically attached at the hip. they’re attached in a literal sense, too- the two have actual twin telepathy, and are able to read each other’s thoughts/emotions and feel each other’s pain.
carrion, despite being the “younger” twin, has always been protective of and felt responsible for his brother. they were orphaned in childhood after their parents died in a circus accident, so their childhood was a bit hard. even ignoring his seemingly never-ending illnesses and pains, valentine has always been a bit strange; ever since he was a child, he has been plagued by visions from what was at first an unknown, otherworldly force. as he grew older, the visions grew stronger, and when he and carrion were thirteen, their foster mother threw valentine out on the streets, wanting nothing to do with his strangeness and growing frustrated by the financial burden that his sickliness caused. ever loyal to his brother, carrion refused to stay in a home where valentine was not welcome, and the two spent the rest of their childhood as street urchins. carrion, a born troublemaker with a silver tongue and a sharp mind, soon grew into one of the best con artists the underground had ever seen. and don’t be fooled by valentine’s frailness and kind eyes-- he a mischief maker himself, and would more often than not play a key role in his brother’s schemes.
by adulthood, carrion and valentine were living rather comfortably on the coin they “earned” from their various schemes and heists. however, despite the niche the twins found as con artists, something still bothered them: valentine’s visions were growing more and more frequent, and whoever was sending them had even tried to speak through his body on more than one occasion, which caused valentine to seize and choke out half formed sentences as he writhed on the ground. determined to uncover which god or entity was trying to communicate with them, the two eventually came to a shocking revelation: the visions were coming from the long-lost sun god, who had been all but erased from history after they had abandoned humanity one thousand years ago, plunging the world into eternal night and an endless winter. based on valentine’s visions, the twins have come to believe that the sun god is not dead or purposefully absent, but rather asleep and in need of rescuing. labeled fools at best and heretics at worst, the two began to preach their beliefs and eventually started a small but devout cult called the Slumbering Dawn. in my setting, the gods’ chosen champions take on the surname st [god], hence valentine’s last name-- he doesn’t know the name of the god he’s championing, so dawn will have to do. valentine is the figurehead of the cult, but carrion is the the leader and orchestrater-- he’s basically applying the skills he used as a con artist but, like, for a good cause now. which brings us to the start of the campaign! the party will work with the Slumbering Dawn to bring the sun back, but spoiler alert! turns out the sun was a little bit evil the whole time and put asleep by the moon for the good of humanity. oopsie! i plan on the final boss fight to be against the sun, who has been awakened by the well-meaning party and who has forcibly possessed valentine’s body. unfortunately in order to kill the sun they’ll have to kill valentine, but what’s a dnd campaign without a little major character death?
personality wise, carrion is much more outgoing than his brother. he’s pretty much the lovable rogue stereotype: charismatic, quick-witted, slutty, etc. he’s a nice guy, though, despite being a con artist and the leader of a cult. he’s also a hopeless romantic, and head over heels in love with another NPC, ruthie st cyr (yes i stole her name). he loves his brother, and will always be his biggest supporter, and is fully dedicated to the cult, but part of him is a bit insecure about the fact that he isn’t the one who is beloved by a god; does god hate him? is there something wrong with him? is he impure? oh also he’s trans <3
valentine is shy and reserved, but very kind. he’s just as mischievous and quick-witted as his brother, but a lot more subtle about it. he’s very happy to be chosen by the sun god-- for most of his life he was an outcast and felt like a burden, but now he finally has something to make his life have worth. he’s still insecure about his position though, and part of him will always worry. is he good enough? does he deserve this? can he really bring back the sun? also he’s gay <3
above all, family is the most important thing to both of them, and they would go to the ends of the earth and back for each other. they may squabble and see the world a bit differently, but they have absolutely nothing but love for each other!
carrion is a mastermind rogue and valentine is a light domain cleric!
#I love carrion but why did i make him so detailed...babe you take too long to draw <3#valentine's face got wonky in some of these but i dont want to spend any more time on this lol#anyway tieflings hot#kingkiller twins#carrion kingkiller#valentine st dawn#dnd#my shitty art
