One Piece Supernova trio Omegaverse idea my brain is milling over instead of letting me sleep:
Alpha!Kid challenging/goading Beta!Luffy in order to 'impress' the unmated Omega!Law, possibly not even wanting to attract Law as a mate just dumb hindbrain posturing kind of stuff.
Luffy not caring about designations or romantic/sexual relationships but fully responding to the challenges/goads because he's dumb and competitive like that.
Law being completely aware of the actual intent behind Kid's challenges/goads but now Luffy's turned it into a 'who's the better captain' thing he's also responding to them in a competitive way.

THE GOOD, THE BAD, & THE DIRTY
headcanons w mini drabbles for one piece's monster trio on the different sides of dating them.
afab! reader implied, gender neutral pronouns except sanji's portion
characters: luffy, zoro, sanji 4.4k words a/n: thought this would be a good first post for my new writing blog<3 my drafts have been piling up forever lol
Tumblr media
❥ monkey d luffy
the good
so in tune with his emotions
what he likes, dislikes, etc. he makes very clear, so pleasing him is such an easy task!
tbh i see him still being surprised even when you outright ask him what he wants
why is he so starry-eyed from the plate of bacon you're offering him? he said he was hungry, and sanji did tell you to help yourself to the leftovers from breakfast...
similarly, the strawhat captain isn't afraid to just go for it when he wants something
once it's clear you're both experiencing the same kind of feelings, this only doubles
physical affection is the perfect example of this
the sudden urge to hold your hand? he's reaching to lace your fingers together without a second thought. rubbery limbs are constantly wrapping around you in loops, luffy putting his whole heart into embracing you like he does anything else
in his mind, it's something that makes you both happy— so why fight it? especially when everything is "sooo much funner with you around!"
"You'd think they were attached at the hip," Zoro's grunt of a remark cut through the quiet on the upper deck. With the sea breeze teasing their clothes and hair, Nami brushed a few stray locks from her peripheral to follow the swordsman's gaze— only to land on their captain some distance away, with his arms hooked over your shoulders so he could cling to your back.
The added weight clearly disrupted your lounging, the navigator having seen you peacefully cloud-watching alone minutes prior, but there was no scolding or shoving like there would've been with some of the other crew. You seemed fine with it actually.
Rolling her eyes, Nami looked back down at the log pose that adorned her wrist. "If that's surprising to you, you're more clueless than I thought."
Oblivious to the now-bickering onlookers, you shot a small smile over your shoulder at Luffy. Though the signature hat on his head blocked most of his face from view at this angle, you could still see the edges of the dazzling smile that immediately surfaced in turn.
"You sure you don't wanna fish with Usopp and Chopper instead?" you softly question, fingers reaching up to trace invisible patterns across Luffy's arms, then wrists, then knuckles.
The captain insistently shook his head, ducking further into your neck until you felt the slight scratch of straw and the tickle of air from each exhale. "I like spending time with you." The answer was said simply, leaving no room for debate. It made your smile grow.
"Even doing nothing?"
Laughter, then— the kind Luffy did when he thought a question was silly. You knew it all too well.
"It's always something! Because we're together. Duh!"
the bad
not a single functioning braincell
okay, cutting the poor guy some slack, luffy isn't exactly stupid. in fact, there are plenty of times he's caught onto things faster than others
but don't let this convince you he's the next philosopher of our era
this oblivious man can miss signals that are the equivalent of a giant neon sign. this causes misunderstandings like no other
which brings me to the subject of the captain's stubbornness
you'll never understand how someone with so little patience can still manage to be one of the most stubborn pirates throughout the sea
it'd be amazing if that stubbornness could be used for the benefit of the crew, if you could somehow make him sit out battles, or stand off against his monstrous appetite...
however, what luffy often refuses to budge on are matters of the heart. good luck introducing any kind of logic to that
The symphony of battle was one you never quite got used to. Even now, after all the progress you've made, the adventures you've been on and endured... Sometimes it could still be overwhelming.
The clanging of swords and cries of rage. The explosions, both close and far. The shuddering sobs of the dying.
But right now, all you could hear was your own desperate begging— reverberating around your skull.
"Don't do this, Luffy. Please."
"I've made up my mind." The captain's answer was low, rough. Fitting, considering the anger twisting his features. Regardless of the fact it wasn't directed at you, the raw power in that stare made you shudder.
You had a terrible, terrible feeling about this.
"Please, Luffy! Don't—" you were choking on the words. You didn't want to say it, but you were grasping at straws. Nothing was working, none of the usual methods you'd learned over the months spent with the crew to distract or redirect Luffy's recklessness had any effect right now. "Don't be stupid! We need more time, more help! If we can just get back to the—"
"Shut up! I'm gonna end this now. I'll make it back, I promise." This was clearly the limit to his patience; the rubber man throwing an arm out, stretching it far in preparation to slingshot himself right to the heart of the enemy. Right to the strongest enemy he's faced yet.
You knew you should have faith in your captain, knew you should cry out in support of his strength and determination, but all you could feel right now is dread. Nothing was going to plan.
Before you could get another word in, your lover is gone, soaring across the sea of fighters.
the dirty (nsfw tags: public sex, alluded creampie, slight size kink)
a common war within luffy is the previously-mentioned obliviousness versus that naturally sharp set of instincts that have miraculously kept him alive
he's probably aware of sex in a roundabout way— sometimes people get together, touch in certain ways, and then go about their day?
definitely had some companions try to explain it to him, for his sake and safety, but didn't listen AT ALL because it just didn't catch his attention
however, with some hands-on experience... let's just say it has more impact on him
suddenly there are all these fun things to do, in different ways, in different places even! the combinations and experimentation get him hooked the most
good luck trying to keep any of your sex life private though
not only is he a blabbermouth, answering questions honestly without any hesitation— but it's also way too easy to give in to his spontaneous (and risky) whims...
your "secret" is out maybe a week or two after his introduction to this new, addicting pleasure
Nami owed you big time for this.
The money-hungry thief had set her gaze upon a new mark that was quite typical for the crew's adventures. The Strawhat Pirates were currently being honored with a royal banquet— and banquets usually meant castles or strongholds of some kind, which meant treasuries.
So the plan was mind-numbingly simple: keep the party going until your gracious hosts were robbed blind by your navigator.
The thing was, another common thing with these banquets was the hero treatment. So really the plan was easier said than done when your dear captain hated being called a hero and often jumped at the chance to leave such affairs after having his fill of food. Luffy never liked to sit in one place for long, and the plates had cleared out long ago. Only guests drunk on mirth and booze remained— cheering and shouting and singing.
When the captain's gaze combed through the crowds, landing on his various crew members, you immediately recognized the pattern: he wanted to find his companions and leave.
Thus came your role.
It was always easiest to capture your captain's 'attention' after he won a fight. It made sense, really: a post-battle celebration hosted all sorts of emotions from the aftermath of combat. Adrenaline, relief, desperation...
And never before were you more aware of the latter, your chest flush against the stone wall as muscle caged you in from all sides. Luffy's hands were gripping desperately onto your waist as he thrust into you like his life depended on it, a mix of cum and slick arousal clinging to the inside of your spread thighs. His gaze, though half-lidded, was intensely focused on where the two of you joined.
The plan initially involved a room, but in hindsight you'd already been a little needy for your boyfriend, so you may have done your job a little too well. You'd reflect more on it, but that coiling feeling in your core was far more compelling, especially when the hips behind you stuttered in their rhythm— Luffy shoving his throbbing cock deeper with small, broken circles. This time he'd pull you over the edge with him.
With the noises he was making into your neck, you had the fleeting thought that you were sure to get caught any second: after all, you'd only turned a few empty halls before settling for the wall. But you couldn't help it at this point. How could you deny yourself when the both of you were just so close?
❥ roronoa zoro
the good
this swordsman is the epitome of security
say hello to your new favorite safe space: zoro's arms
after an especially long or hard day, words don't even need to be spoken— he's folding you into his arms, and the familiar drum of his steady heartbeat echoes in your ears
you can always count on him for refreshing alone time
need a getaway from it all? you've got the strawhat's first mate around your little finger, dear, just give him that look and he'll be pulling you away from the group to have some space to breathe
he understands the demons one can mentally battle while the outside world remains ignorant, the weight of intrusive thoughts
which, despite being abrasive about it, zoro will always make sure to express his gratitude to you in small ways
it might feel passive aggressive, the way he's shoving a coat over your shoulders, but would you rather catch a stupid cold?
poke fun at these subtle generosities and the swordsman will get so pouty and pink
Maybe you were just weird, but there was something melancholic in the aftermath of a marvelous adventure. In the departure and days after, as you ease back into the quiet in-between moments on the sea.
Sometimes there's a restless itch under your skin during these weeks when the action is sparse. You know the rest of the crew can relate in their own ways.
But you think Zoro understands a little better than the others.
The first couple of times you'd squirreled away in the crow's nest on his watch, the swordsman would shoot you a weird look or even grumble about peace and alone time. However, he never explicitly asked you to leave, and so you remained.
It became a habit, these quiet hangouts, until one day you broke the silence.
"Does the training help?" you inquire aloud. Later you'd blame the exhaustion you'd felt at the time— it was late into Zoro's overnight watch, and he barely broke a sweat over the entire weight training period.
The faint rattling of metal sounded when the bar abruptly stopped, and Zoro met your curious gaze with a confused one. "Hah? What are you on about?"
Nervously, you fidgeted. "I know training makes you stronger. But... I guess I'm just asking if sometimes you train because it's something to... to keep yourself busy. Y'know," you gestured vaguely. "That restlessness thing."
Green brows relaxed, something in his eyes softening. Or maybe you were just sleep-deprived.
"I train to get stronger, and stay stronger," he answers, resuming the lift and drop of the barbell. Then another pause, although briefer. "But it's not too bad for that either."
"Hm..." Somehow you felt dissatisfied with the answer, but you didn't push. Instead, you balanced the weight of your head on your palm, fingers curling over your cheek.
"So does watching help any better?" It was facetious, teasing even. Heat immediately spread across your face.
It... Kind of does.
the bad
literally SO prideful it's infuriating
teaching this man vulnerability will be a full time job with no vacation pay, no 401k, nada. zip. might as well be raising a teenage boy who's father is toxic masculinity
also on that subject, i feel like he doesn't know how to handle emotional situations very well
gets better over time in the relationship, with guidance, but at the beginning?
ohhh boy, better reconsider going to him for coddling. chopper or robin would be a better pick for that...
double goes for trying to ask in front of others. i can just imagine you asking for reassurance and he'd just offer shallow, borderline inconsiderate advice only for nami to beat some sense into him...
power through his fear of emotional intimacy with him and you can get through ANYTHING bestie
good luck though because this man would rather shoulder the world for eternity than admit he needs help
The patience of a saint would still not be enough to handle this situation, is what you tell yourself. It's understandable if someone doesn't want to talk about something upsetting.
Last week had been hard for everyone. The entire crew grieved in their own ways, the Sunny a little quieter following the troubling loss you'd suffered at the last island.
A reminder to constantly improve, because there are always stronger foes to face.
The realization that you'd not seen Zoro since the incident struck you like a physical blow, winding you and making the next breath a little rushed. One could only imagine what was going through his head.
So, as his... friend— a complicated subject, really, and a headache you didn't need right now— you searched for him. To make sure he was alright.
However, you weren't expecting this much hostility in response to a simple inquiry. You just wanted to know if the dumbass was alright.
Whatever happened from his end of the battlefield must have been particularly triggering. Your brain ran wild with theories, speculating if it dug into his past. Maybe even his childhood. What kind of grief and scars were reopened by the things he witnessed that day.
At the very least, you wanted to offer some sort of companionship in the pain and misery. Remind the swordsman that he's not alone on the bitter nights.
Clearly, that invitation wasn't welcome.
"I don't need anyone's pity! If you want someone to cry with go bitch to Chopper or something," Zoro barks, all scowls and tension where he sat cross-legged on the deck.
Angry tears sting your eyes, and you don't know if you'd survive the humiliation of them being seen and confused for something they're not. So instead, you spin on your heel, taking his advice.
You retreat to the women's quarters, heart twisting painfully in your chest. Eyes practically burn their gaze into your back as you go.
the dirty (nsfw tags: possessiveness, rough play, degradation, praise)
zoro is a one night stand that turns into two. which turns into three. which then becomes a situationship i don't make the rules
i imagine both of you manage to convince yourselves that it's what the other wants, followed with further delusions of 'i can totally do this without catching feelings'
spoiler alert: there's already feelings
this is really evident when jealousy and possessiveness slip through— zoro is particularly susceptible to fucking out his frustrations after withstanding jealousy for so long
loves to mix degradation and praise. "pretty slut" is a favorite, but new terms come into play from time to time
will play rough and leave marks, even if you have to compromise and convince him to scatter them where you can easily cover the bites and bruises up
ask him to be gentle and he'll try
You couldn't say how you'd wound up here again. The situation was familiar, one that was surely getting too comfortable to be safe— but it was hard to say no to something that felt this amazing.
Joining The Strawhats was an adventure: an exhilarating one that you could only predict in your wildest dreams. But what you've found amidst the crew was a more dangerous, more... carnal thrill.
It was unexpected, but Roronoa Zoro was beginning to be your absolute downfall.
You could— and often did, these days— find yourself getting lost in the way your bodies meld together, head swimming from the unpredictable filth that would spew from his lips.
Why did it feel so good to be called a whore? To be demeaned and then uplifted in a whirlwind of lust? It was undeniable, the way you would clench desperately around Zoro's length each time he retreated from your heat with mean taunts; and the way he'd chuckle, the sound pure sin, before filling you once more. The little praises he'd sneak in, gems among the insults, only serve as better kindling to feed the fire raging in your lower stomach.
Though you had to admit you enjoyed this as much, if not just a little more. Seeing the swordsman beneath you as you ride him, hypnotized by the occasional strain of corded muscle, settles the icky feeling that had been lingering behind your ribs earlier at the bar. When some of the women from the town your crew was visiting tried to chat him up, batting their lashes and tossing their hair.
Another obscene noise is pulled from the man below you, and you can no longer fight the urge to collide your lips with his in a brutal kiss.
It's messy, full of teeth and drool and whines that are pushed from you each time Zoro snaps his hips up just right.
"'M gonna cum," you warn after putting a few inches between your lips and his, the words rushed and desperate. It's the only chance you get before he's pulling you back into that kiss with a harsh grip on your hair— tingles of pain simply sparking into a new, unique kind of pleasure.
"Do it," Zoro hisses against your ear. "Be a good slut and say who you belong to."
Maybe it's not so crazy that his kiss feels like it's claiming you, too.
❥ vinsmoke sanji
the good
might as well start introducing yourself as royalty because you're never getting anything less from this lover boy
he will pamper you and do his best to fulfill your every whim! would serve you the universe on a shiny silver platter. no, gold! no, an entire diamond eatery set!
honestly, no one will boost you more. sanji is your number one fan and will constantly strive to make you love yourself as much as he does
you won't ever have to even fathom being undesirable because this chef will not stand for it for even a second
could list a million different characteristics he adores about you for every single negative remark you could come up with
all he asks for in return is your attention, and to be around you<3
"It looks like someone's got an admirer," came Robin's amused voice from your left, startling you from your reverie.
"Robin! You just love sneaking up on me," you dramatically sigh, recomposing yourself before making a scrunched-up expression of confusion. "Admirer?"
The archaeologist simply laughed under her breath, peering at you from over her sunglasses as she tipped them down. "I can't even say a secret admirer. I'm afraid it's quite obvious— Nami and I noticed immediately."
You weren't above pouting. "I have no clue what you're talking about."
With one brow arched, the woman pointed a delicate finger down to the table before you.
Out on the deck, a table with a fancy cloth and delicate glassware was oh-so-carefully set; and the metaphorical cherry on top was the mouth-watering delicacies stacked atop. Sanji— obviously the one behind the romantically-designed dinner— had to physically fight off the ravenous Strawhat captain as the gluttonous pirate stalked the meal like a starving predator.
Not one to turn down a delicious meal, and hating the thought of Sanji's efforts as food bodyguard against Luffy going to waste, you didn't waste time asking questions and simply enjoyed the gift. The renowned chef, all the while, gushed and cooed in the background after Luffy finally realized there was no food for him.
"C'mon, you're smarter than that. You really think he doesn't mean anything out of all this?"
Heat prickled at your cheeks. Sanji's behavior was certainly flirtatious, but it was easy to understand why outsiders would confuse it for a genuine advance. But Robin? She should've understood your fellow crewmate better.
"It's not like that. Sanji treats every woman like this!"
Robin was giving you that amused, I-know-something-you-don't expression again. "Perhaps. But I've never seen him quite so smitten with every little reaction before, either." Her gaze left yours, roaming slightly to the right, and instinctively you were turning your head to follow it.
Meeting eyes with the ship's cook, you swear your heart skips a beat as his face immediately falls into a lovesick look, eyes practically hearts as he swooned and darted to your side.
"Everything was to your satisfaction, my dear?"
the bad
regardless if you mind clinginess or not, i can guarantee even you will need a break from him at some point or another
he's happy being together every second of every day without pause. sleep, wake, eat, shower together— the more time to cherish you, the merrier, so if you want personal space... you're gonna have to break his heart
just a little bit! only for the hour, or day. he'll sulk and pout every moment you're away, not unlike a puppy.
which reminds me: you will have to keep a tight hold on this man's leash
don't get the guy wrong, a committed relationship is sacred to keep! he'll keep certain things special for just you two, however...
sanji could never ignore a gorgeous lady. single or not
beauty is meant to be admired, right? well, he'll certainly admire them
If someone asked why you'd fallen for Sanji, any other time you could give them quite the winding list of qualities your boyfriend portrayed. In fact, despite the rough day, it's with startling clarity you realize you still could list those things about him.
Sanji was sweet. Romantic. Considerate, gentlemanly, talented, and generous.
Too generous.
Sometimes you seriously questioned how you managed to develop feelings for a total pervert. It felt like you'd gone through every stage of grief with this characteristic of his: denial, bartering, depression...
Currently? You're in the anger stage and would prefer to keep a five-mile radius between yourself and the blond.
"Princess, please," Sanji's apologetic whining can be heard from behind the door, the handle remaining untouched as his mannerly side showed face: he wouldn't cross that boundary, you would open the door when you were good and ready.
You wanted to be. God, you did. But... it was just so infuriating, the way he fawned after that dancer on the street.
...However beautiful she may have been. You weren't totally spiteful, even you could admit the woman was drop-dead gorgeous.
The frown on your face only deepened. You didn't want to sound like an insolent teen: you think she's prettier than me! So instead, you decided the best option was some time and space. You could get over your jealousy, then go back to your love when you were ready.
A little voice in the back of your head nagged that would probably happen before lunchtime.
the dirty (nsfw tags: praise kink, oral & fingering, switch dynamics)
an absolute service switch. sanji is there to please, indulging in the entire experience from start to finish.
like fine dining, you don't messily inhale all the food on your plate: first you revel in the aroma, admire the texture, sift through the different flavors and how they tickle the palette
this is just a way of saying he could wax poetic about using his mouth on you
doesn't matter how— whether his tongue is between your thighs, across your skin, or between your teeth. you're a delicacy meant to be savored from top to bottom and back again, in his head
when the tables are turned and it's his pleasure at focus, though?
baby boy gets so shy, ahw
nevertheless, so needy. will not stop rambling about all the (amazing, stunning, reverent, miraculous, etc.) things you make him feel. he sings your praise until his pleasure is too much for words
Island stops were always... interesting. Some of the crew's most chaotic shenanigans stemmed from the simple dispatch of a grocery shopping trip. At this point, you counted your blessings when everyone would meet back at the ship successfully— a quick head count reassuring you that no, Zoro did not get lost again and yes, Luffy somehow managed to stay out of trouble. And if Robin didn't mysteriously disappear just to reemerge with world-toppling news?
Close to a miracle.
But nothing would best the island pit stops where you got to stay behind on the Sunny with its famous cook. There was a wonderful, honeymoon-esque bubble that would suddenly surround your world when the rest of the crew left the ship and headed into town.
Honeymoon indeed, with the way Sanji becomes so taken with you during those hours of privacy. When there's time to be used, he spans out every second to bring forth as much pleasure for you as possible.
It was nearly overwhelming, at first. You'd had the strange urge to cry, the evening had been so intimate. No one ever focused on you for so long.
Despite the time that has passed, the sentiment still lingers today.
Emotion swells inside your chest like a giant tidal wave, thighs trembling against hands that held you as though you were an offering to the heavens. Sanji had lost himself what feels like hours ago to the essence between your legs, the very first taste sending his lashes aflutter before his eyes fully closed and he divulged in his favorite feast.
He'd once told you he couldn't help it— he wanted to see your beauty for himself, but he truly lost control the moment his tongue fell upon your sex.
Goosebumps trailed in the wake of the hand that caressed down your hip to your inner thigh. The touch was featherlight before Sanji was pulling back, much to your disdain, only for that touch to drag across every slick and sensitive inch of skin he'd previously tasted.
"Just let me continue to make you feel good, baby. I can do this as long as you'd like," he coos as his fingers slip inside, curling to reach that toe-curling spot he knows will drive you crazy.
Why would you ever decline such a beautiful offer?

We need a filler episode where the Derby trio (Gus, Willow and Hunter) goes on their first solo trip to the grocery store. Most of this was discussed with @sergeantsporks and they added some stuff to the idea.
Gus had avoided going out the house cause he didn't want his first human realm experiences to be embittered by his situation, but by now he's recovered enough to be okay with distracting himself a bit and try to enjoy himself. Willow just wants to get out the house and also support Gus through this. It's no use constantly fretting over something you can't change, she can try to live life a little, right? At least as a distraction. Hunter is also here as support, but he is also treating this as an important mission to repay Miss Noceda and he cannot mess this up. Also he will protect his friends from danger.
• On the way to the store they come across an intersection they have to cross and they have to mentally prepare for it like "We can do this. We can DO THIS!" And Gus makes sure they wait for the green light and look both ways like Camila showed them and they're all strategic about it and they all take each others' hands and Hunter takes the lead like "On my mark- GO GO!" And they run across the not at all crowded road screaming and when it's all done they breathe huge sighs of relief and cling to each other like "Oh my Titan we made it! We're alive!"
• Hunter ends up having a mini breakdown cause the one of the items on the list just says "pasta" and he doesn't want to pick the "wrong" one and fail Camila
• Gus and Hunter end up having multiple "they are smart individually but share a braincell when together" moments
• Gus: "Get the corkscrew pasta. They probably double as gears in a machine."
Hunter: "Oh yeah!"
• Hunter does end up beating up a man at the cheese aisle that they assume is some kind of guardian that they have to defeat every week to earn the right to the cheese.
• It's actually just Jacob in cosplay trying to prevent their "evil plans" (why he assumes groceries are involved is beyond me). But the trio comes back very proud of having defeated the guardian and completing their task.
• The staff doesn't do anything cause they don't get paid enough for this shit and Jacob was harassing customers anyway.
• Despite Hunter most often trying to take charge, Gus is the one everyone looks to for guidance since he is the human expert. A lot of "You used the wrong formula but got the right answer" moments ensue.
• Both Willow and Hunter are trying to cheer Gus up by pointing him to human realm trinkets and while Gus is captivated by the office supplies section, there's still an underlying exhaustion and worry that dampens it.
• Willow takes some time for herself at the potted spices section. The plants here don't respond to her as much, even the demon realm seeds she brought over in her pockets are not growing too well in the human realm soil, and Willow struggles to adjust to keep them alive, and she feels weaker for it. She knows that her power isn't everything, but it's still sonething she worked very hard on and is very important to her.
• Hunter cracks a little due to the stress at some point and Willow has to take charge.
• Hunter and Gus reassure Willow that she is a brilliant captain and friend no matter what, and they all trust her capabilities. Hunter was just trying to do the brunt of the work here to take away the burden for everyone else.
• But all of them have gone through a lot, and trying to hold it all in for the sake of the others won't help.
• On the way back they discuss how everyone's been holding in their own emotions so they wouldn't burden anyone and agree to lean on each other more and work together, rather than someone trying to take charge all the time.
Just throwing the ideas out there and conpiling them into a single post. Too bad season 3 got shortened so we won't get this kind of episode.

Request for dumbass trio my beloveds
Just more general protective headcannons for them, like how protective would they be in a not toxic way lol
I don’t know which dumbass trio you’re talking about but I’ll do it
The OG Dumbbass trio
(Naruto, Sasuke and you)
First of all, please stop Naruto from eating any plants. He will try to eat them even if they’re poisonous, he wants to see if his body can “handle” it. Then Sasuke will try to eat the plant because he refuses to be one-upped by Naruto. God help you if you’re all on a mission and you have to turn back because those two idiots wouldn’t keep their mouths off of the ivy.
Sad to say this, but you’re most likely the one who’s holding the braincell. You’re the rock in the river holding two idiots from going over the waterfall. That also means you’re the one that has to tell Kakashi and Sakura when they eat the poisonous plants in the wild.
That also means you’re the one who has to get them to the hospital because they are dumb. They’ve probably eaten a hallucinogenic on accident and couldn’t walk for even a second before smacking face first into the dirt.
Naruto has definitely tried to eat a rock before. Not even a small pebble. He tried to eat a whole fucking rock.
Sasuke keeps trying to fight anything and anyone who pisses him off. Civilian or ninja, he’s fighting them. Well try to anyways, considering you were genin at the time, he probably wouldn’t gotten very far. When he can’t fight someone, he’ll go to you and Naruto and start flinging his hands everywhere and ranting.
You have probably eaten a bug once. Or maybe twice. Or maybe whenever you’re dared to. Which is often. Too often, it’s a little out of hand actually. Kakashi has seen you throw up more than 8 separate times trying to eating a wasp. Yeah good luck with that one Kakashi.
When Sasuke left the village, you probably went with him because he needs emotional support tbh. And that’s how you ended up with the Akatsuki and created that dumbass trio.
Akatsuki Dumbass trio
(Hidan, Deidara and you)
It’s a little strange how you three came together as one trio, seeing as you all don’t have that much in common. You’re like the glue for you three, and also the one with the braincell. Although it’s not often, you do get to be the one out of control from time to time. But mostly because you want to steal and Hidan and Deidara are just…not very good at it.
Hidan has tried to sacrifice Deidara at least 5 times the first week all of you were hanging out.
Every time Deidara remembers this, he puts little bombs in inconvenient places to blow up on Hidan. Just to be a nuisance.
Deidara was probably the first one to hang out with you, Hidan following after because…well let’s be honest. He loves chaos and will do anything to cause it or be apart of it.
After becoming friends, Hidan has subtly tried to make you and Deidara convert because he wants you guys to also worship Jashin to become immortal. I mean it probably worked? You’re still alive by the time Hidan was buried, and the by the time Deidara had that fight with Sasuke.
Speaking of Sasuke, Deidara was definitely not jealous of the fact that you and Sasuke also hung out. A lot. Like a lot, a lot. He also sees you hang around Itachi to tell him about all the trouble you, Sasuke and Naruto got into. He wants to get into that kind of trouble too. But you’re all criminals so technically you can’t.
Warring period Dumbass trio
(Madara, Hashirama and you)
Ok. Same people, different time but Madara is the one with the braincell most of the time. You could take one look at the three of you and point out which one was the brains.
To be honest, you’re all dumbasses but in varying levels. You being the chaos, everything is on fire dumbass, Hashirama being the heart of gold dumbass, and Madara being I want to kill people dumbass.
When you three met and didn’t kill each other. Holy shit. The sign of relief you let you when it didn’t happen. Doesn’t matter which clan you’re apart of, you did not want to be in the middle of that.
You three got into some trouble as kids and as adults. Different kinds of trouble, though. Kids being kids and pulling pranks, running around in villages and knocking people over. Trouble as adults being… you and Madara set a market place on fire. Completely on accident. 100%. No- no other reason.
You and Hashirama can’t do math well. It’s very hard and Tobirama is the one to help out most of the time.
You and Madara have definitely set other things on fire. When his father was being incredibly horrible, you and him would set his bed on fire so he’d have to sleep on the ground.
You have definitely punched their dads in the face at least…twice. You never apologized for it and you never will.
When the Uzumaki priestess came around, Madara and Hashirama began to drift apart. They both wanted what was best for their clans but the Uchiha had it rigged against them from the start and the Senju bloodline was dwindling. That’s a lot of responsibility.
It was your death that sent them careening apart. You spent more time with Hashirama and saw his struggles more often and because of this, Madara blamed Hashirama for your death. Seeing as you spent so much time together.
We all know how this story ends.

Whisper in my ears about good ol' Bob
YEAAAAHHHH BABEEEEYYYY YOU GOTS IT
an ask game ft niche questions i don’t see v often (send me a character)
Robert 'Bob' Floyd (More under the cut so I don't bother anyone <3)
a song that reminds me of them Burning Pile - Mother Mother It goes, all my troubles on a burning pile All lit up and I start to smile If I catch fire then I change my aim Throw my troubles at the pearly gates
what they smell like "Clean", if that makes sense? Like... clean clothes, fabric softener, softly/barely or generally unscented body products but clean, kind of fresh. That's the vibes I get. I don't think I associate a specific scent so you get this instead.
an otp Bobnix <3 idk man, I just think they're neat! But Floychado grew on me too, yes. Alas, I like girlboss Phoenix and malewife Bob, I think it's very bi4bi love and it's one of the few het ships I can get behind. It doesn't feel comphet to me and I enjoy it.
a notp I don't think I have any for Bob specifically??? Bobster/Roosbob/Floydshaw whatever it's called is one of his ships I don't particularly enjoy but it's entirely arbitrary, like, I cannot tell you why.
favorite platonic/familial relationships BOB ROOSTER PHOENIX FRIEND TRIO MY BELOVED... I actually really love the 'Bob is friends with everyone because who wouldn't like him' kinda deal but that specific trio... feelsgoodman.jpg, I like the Scooby Gang vibes they can bring to the table. Bob is holding the singular braincell while Rooster and Phoenix ruin someone's (probably Hangman's) day.
a headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that i disagree with I honestly don't think I've seen any particular headcanons from the fandom I particularly disagree with? Or maybe I just haven't paid too much attention to the ones I disliked sagdfagsdjghafsdjhgafsd but I'll say this: Bob to me may be a wallflower but he's not a shrinking violet and there is a MASSIVE difference between those. So, I guess, that???
the position they sleep in On his side, head under a pillow, tucked. Looks comfy, makes you wanna cuddle, I stand by it.
a crossover au i’d love to see them in You know what? Give me the Bobman in a detective AU spiderman style, I want Bob the Guy In The Chair, Bob the assistant, I want him being the voice of reason!!!
my favorite outfit they’ve ever worn BEACH OUTFIT ORANGE SHIRT AND SHORTS MY BELOVED HE LOOKED SO CUTE.

Ace is One of The Smartest First Years and Here’s Why
(Contains spoilers for the main story, Ace’s personal stories, events, and etc.)
I made a theory on how physically strong Rook must be, so it’s time to go on the opposite spectrum and talk about how intelligent Ace is.
People often like to joke that Ace is part of the shared braincell trio. Heck, even I’m very guilty of this. But how true is this exactly?
While he’s certainly not at Azul’s or Jamil’s level of intelligence, Ace has shown multiple times that he’s very capable of lying and manipulating people. He’s also displayed intelligence in several instances.
Tumblr media
Main Story
First of all, let me discuss how he shows intelligence in the main story. The very first thing Ace does in the main story when we meet him is trick MC and Grim, hiding his true emotions towards them until he couldn’t take it anymore and decided to make fun of them. He was able to hold up this friendly facade to explain the Great Seven to them.
In chapter one, Ace may have made the stupid decision to challenge Riddle when he’s just a first year with not much experience with using magic, but he was also the one who went off on Riddle repeatedly for his actions. Personally I believe this was a good display of his emotional intelligence.
In chapter two, he and Deuce help with catching the culprit and it was revealed that he was only doing it to gain Riddle’s favor so that he could play in the magift tournament. While this doesn’t exactly work out for the two of them, this still shows how often he can put up a nicer facade to trick people since this is already the second time he’s done this.
In chapter three, Ace is shown to have gotten the highest score among him, Deuce, and Grim. His score was over 90 points. I understand that this was mostly because of Azul’s notebook but it’s still quite interesting how much information he managed to soak up from that notebook in order to get such a high score compared to the other two. Later on, he distracts the mer-guard by acting like a big fan of merfolk and he does this extremely well. He got the mer-guard to talk to him and they had a conversation about the Little Mermaid movie.
And in chapter five, he was able to do mental maths quickly and told Deuce the total madol that MC and Grim would get if they let the VDC team use the Ramshackle Dorm.
Tumblr media
Personal Stories
Now that we’ve discussed Ace’s actions in the main story, let’s move on to his personal stories. These stories are filled with a lot more instances of Ace being calculating and cunning.
In his School Uniform R Personal Story, he attempts to manipulate Trey into spilling the possible contents of an upcoming test. After his attempt failed, he tells Trey that his brother taught him to add a bit of truth into a lie.
In his PE Uniform Story, Ace says that he can see the hoop once and shoot without having to look at it a second time. Riddle says that he has good spatial awareness. Then Ace ends up proving that this isn’t a lie when he catches a magift disc that could’ve hit Riddle’s head.
Now for his SR stories. In his Lab Coat Story, Ace manages to pull a mandragora perfectly on the first try. This shows how fast Ace learns.
Then in his Ceremonial Robe Story, Ace got bored of the ceremony and decided to sneak out. How did he do this? He specifically said that he should grab another person that looks weak so that if they got caught, he could say that the other person needed to get to the infirmary. Then he grabbed Epel. While he was out and talking to Epel, he mentioned his brother and said his brother could recommend good places to skip out on. He also says that if he decides to take a nap on a bench and gets caught by a teacher, he could feign a stomach ache.
Now to discuss SSRs. First off, the Dorm Uniform Story. We see that Cater says Ace is cunning when he shows him card tricks. Ace reveals that he learned card tricks from his brother by watching him over and over and memorizing them. This shows that Ace has a good memory and Cater even says this as well. Then he had to look for the lost hedgehogs and Rook offered his assistance (after calling his aura pathetic). Ace managed to memorize some mole language, a language that’s level is beyond what most animal language majors even reach in college, after Rook taught him once.
In his Birthday Suit Story, MC describes him as pretty dexterous. Ace’s dominant hand is his right but he can also use his left hand to build a tower.
Tumblr media
Extra Notes
The thing I noticed about Ace is that he doesn’t want to work so much. He’s shown multiple times that he just wants to have fun and not have to strive to work so hard. This was most evident in his PE story when Riddle said he’d consider choosing him for interdorm sports events and Ace responded by saying he doesn’t want harsh work. He usually seems to use his intelligence and cunning wit to make things easier for him or to amuse himself.
It could be possible that the only reason he made a contract with Azul was because he just didn’t want to have to study so much.
That being said— With how well Ace can put up a convincing facade and how he doesn’t want to put much effort into things, could it be possible that Ace is a genius but puts up a “dumbass” persona so that people won’t expect much from him and have him go through harsher work? He also isn’t exactly the type of guy who always wants to stand out, as revealed by him getting embarrassed in the Ghost Marriage story and his Birthday story. So if he acts dumber than he really is, he won’t stand out much and people won’t expect things from him.
Update: I looked into the magical archives book for Ace and noticed that the first things it talks about when it cames to Ace is how smart he is. If that doesn’t confirm he’s the genius among the first years, I don’t know what will.
Tumblr media
Conclusion
Every first year has their own type of intelligence. Deuce is very empathetic, Jack has a good mind for strategic thinking, Epel learns pretty quickly and has his experience in the country, and Sebek is book smart.
But Ace displays multiple forms of intelligence and uses it often for his own benefit.
While Ace isn’t anywhere near Azul or Jamil’s levels of intelligence, he’s shown to have much potential. He’s displayed multiple instances of being cunning and calculative. While he still has done some pretty “dumb” things, that doesn’t erase the things he’s still capable of. I can imagine that he could possibly develop to have a lot more intelligence later on when he matures and if he actually made a bigger effort to do so.

GENSHIN IMPACT AS IDOLS
Tumblr media
- one of the groups consists of: Zhongli, Childe, Venti, Xiao, Diluc, Kaeya and Albedo
- Zhongli is the leader and the oldest obvsly and his smooth deep voice is to die for
- He's also the visual along with Albedo (tho everyone here is gorgeous, ngl)
- Childe constantly switches between rap and vocal, but he's mostly recognized for his amazing dancing (he's the main dancer for a reason)
- Venti is the main vocal and possibly writes most of their songs (sometimes Albedo helps him)
- Funnily enough, Venti is often confused for being the maknae while in reality he's the second oldest in the group
- Xiao is the main rapper
- He refuses to sing but would do it if asked (rarely)
- and he's the real maknae - even tho he hates it he can't do anything about it (and everyone, especially Venti and Childe, loves teasing him for it)
- Diluc and Kaeya are the other rappers along with Xiao and they are related in some way tho both refuse to reveal anything to the public (but everyone is convinced they're brothers)
- they don't get along most of the time and argue constantly, but it only amuses the rest of the members and the fans absolutely love their arguments bc it more often than not turns into a rap battle
- and let me tell you, they completely kill it
- then, we have Albedo. He and Zhongli are the most peaceful ones and most likely keep the team together bc if not those idiots would've caused absolute chaos eons ago
- His voice is angelic, everyone adores it
- Childe and Kaeya are the most chaotic duo especially together
- they have the stupidest ideas and like to mess around
- and they are perfectly aware of their god-like looks and also have the audacity to use it "against" their fans (not that anyone complains)
- they are partners in crime when it comes to teasing Diluc
- Kaeya does it on a daily basis and Childe found it funny and decided to join him on causing inconvenience to others, lol
- Xiao, even though he's an idol, hates interacting with humans but makes an exception for fanmeetings, concerts, interviews and such because Zhongli raised him right--
- he has a soft spot for cats and would have one at the dorm if it wasn't for Venti being allergic to them (although he doesn't see any problem with it)
- speaking of the dorm, it's the pure definition of destruction
- Childe and Kaeya being the little shits they are room together and they are that kind of roommates that would blast music on full volume in the middle of the night just because they felt like it (but obvsly they do it to summon a demon in the form of sleep deprived Diluc because they know he's a light sleeper)
- Venti at some point moved in with them bc he felt like it and it's totally not because Xiao kicked him out--
- Zhongli and Diluc share a room because they both know how to appreciate a moment of peace and they just like each other's company; their perfect afternoon on their day off is sitting there with a cup of tea each and exchanging stories they've heard and/or experienced
- Albedo is probably the only person Xiao would room with excluding Zhongli (and maybe Diluc but it's debatable) because he's calm and collected, doesn't talk too much unlike the other three and when he does talk it's nice to listen to him
- also, the sound of sketching calms him down
- Venti somehow lives in all of the rooms in the dorm. First he roomed with Xiao and Albedo, but he got kicked out by the maknae. Then he gravitated towards Zhongli and Diluc but after a few days the redhead got so annoyed with him he ended up with Childe and Kaeya. The three of them share a braincell, that's why they get along so well, but even though he lives with them he sometimes ends up in the other rooms but that's just him
- he likes a change of scenery, ehe
- Zhongli's the dad of the group
- whenever someone has a problem they automatically go to him
- also, even though they are a really chaotic group, they are equally capable of working together (main reason why they are so goddamn awesome on stage)
- Xiao might act like he doesn't care but he does. A lot
- every time one of his hyungs is having a bad day he subtly tries to cheer them up. He feels awkward with words in these moments and physical contact isn't really his forte but instead he does things like buying them their favorite snack, or opting to watch their favorite film with them (even if he absolutely hates it he still would watch it)
- everyone obvsly knows what he's doing and they appreciate it
- Childe and Kaeya actually aren't as easy-going as they like to appear on stage. They are really emotional human beings and are probably most affected by hate comments and such
- Diluc, as much as he despises their attitude and teasing he has to endure bc of them, cares about them a lot and usually he's the one to knock some sense in them when they believe the haters or just have a bad day. He may not like their behavior but he's not heartless and deems them as family (even tho he wouldn't admit it)
- Albedo isn't a lot older than Xiao, maybe something around a few months, so everyone thinks of him like a second maknae and just because he gives off the vibe, y'know
- He loves drawing and sometimes does a sketch of one of the members or recreates a fanart of them he saw on Pinterest (cue to the fans going wild)
- He, alongside with Diluc, often cooks for them. They both are amazing cooks and I refuse to believe otherwise
- Venti has a playlist prepared for every occasion and uses them accordingly
- he also has playlists dedicated to every member of the group and it's his way of cheering them up or being there for them when they are separated
- as for the run episodes, well.... It can be described in one word
- chaos
- they're even capable of riling Zhongli up!
- tho he mostly opts to watch the chaos from the sidelines, snickering under his breath, he ends up in the crossfire from time to time
- contrary to popular belief, the most competitive ones are Diluc and Xiao
- they are so set on winning they sometimes forget that it's all a game
- Childe once got an elbow to the face in one episode but still no one knows who did it (it was Kaeya--)
- Albedo is just... There, tho he does enjoy it. More than he would admit
- Childe and Kaeya are dying of laughter most of the time and do stupid things that probably only they understand which makes the other laugh harder
- and Venti absolutely loves being the host: it gives him a perfect view of his friends who half the time have no idea what the hell is going on and, of course, power
- the fanmeetings are just the other excuse for them to make fun of each other and fool around
- fans don't mind it one bit because it is honestly hilarious to watch the utter chaos unfold
- even when they are signing albums and merch they throw comments here and there to provoke the other
- especially Xiao bc he's a softie when it comes to their fans and as long as the girls don't do anything... Weird, he doesn't mind interacting with them and sometimes finds himself actually enjoying the contact
- while we're on the fanmeetings--
- Zhongli is absolutely wonderful. He's the kind to delicately hold your hand, look into you eyes and smile softly while focusing entirely on you and what you have to say, indulging into conversation as well
- if it wasn't for the staff members reminding him that the time's up, he would spend at least an hour with every fan
- Childe is so excited he grins so much his cheeks hurt, and would look at you like you just made his day. You can be stuttering, super nervous and anxious and he'd just say it's completely fine and that you should take your time, even if the staff says that you should move to the next member
- Venti is the one that talks a lot, but would shut up and listen to you. He especially likes playing with your hands or just some games like rock-paper-scissors
- he also loves it when some fans show him their singing and he encourages them to go on, synchronizing with them and making an amazing duet
- Xiao is, like I've said before, a big softie. He really appreciates the fact that people find their music nice and genuinely like to listen to it. Would probably ask you questions like "what's your favorite song?", "What do you think of this album *gestures to the one he just signed*" etc
- he DID wear cat ears once because a fan gave them to him and they looked kind of cute
- he didn't hear the end of it for two weeks minimum and Childe and Kaeya probably have the pic as their wallpapers
- Diluc is the most... normal one? I mean, he enjoys the meetings a lot, but he doesn't show his excitement as much as the others. Conversations with him are like talking to an old friend that understands you and it's just so... wholesome
- he's honestly surprised when he gets gifts from the fans. He does appreciate it of course, but he just doesn't really understand why you would go as far as to give him something for no particular reason please give him lots of love he needs it-
- Kaeya is the one with the audacity to flirt with you. Loves seeing the blush on your cheeks and just enjoys annoying people. Though he sometimes stops it out of mercy and opts to talk with you like a normal human being--
- most protective of their fans. Sees one in distress or being picked on, immediatly steps in or tells a staff member to handle the situation
- Albedo is somewhere between Zhongli and Diluc's behaviour tbh. He's really sweet, loves talking to the fans and gets super excited whenever one of them shows him a fanart - especially if it's an original idea
- now let's get to the best part
- as lovely and peaceful as they are on a daily basis, they turn into freakin devils on stage
- kind grandpa with a calming voice? Who's that? A goddamn satan entered the chat
- ooooh, the cat lover? Sorry, we only have a mf demon available
- don't even get me started on the Childe-Kaeya-Diluc trio--
- all in all, they may be annoying each other night and day but they still love one another like family and their bond only strengthens when they stand in the spotlight
Tumblr media
I had this idea today and, well, it turned out like this, hope you enjoyed! I also may be doing some sort of continuation to this with Xingqiu, Chongyun, Razor and Bennett as a trainee idol group so let me know if you'd like something like this and if you have any ideas for other groups!

I was supposed to post a gifset of my favorite ship of the show for the JATP Week for Day 3 but I realized I've done plenty of gifsets and I haven't done the mandatory ship manifesto so, I guess this is it.
DISCLAIMER: like I did for my AlexReggie post, I'll mention again that this is me discussing why this OT3 can be enjoyed in fandom spaces rather than this is me actively asking JATP writers/producers to make this ship canon. That's not what shipping means to me.
So, let's dive in into the softest, most wholesome OT3 I have ever had the privilege of shipping:
Luke/Alex/Reggie
Ok, so first off, I wanna start by saying that if you think that polyamory inherently means something sexual or dirty then please kindly fuck off this post and my blog altogether. 
The definition of Polyamory on Wiki: (from Greek πολύ poly, "many, several", and Latin amor, "love") is the practice of, or desire for, intimate relationships with more than one partner, with the informed consent of all partners involved. 
It is a way of expericing both romantic and sexual attraction, a way of living. And as so, there’s nothing wrong with teenagers being polyamorous because there’s nothing wrong with loving more than one person at the same time. It doesn’t always have something to do with sexual activities. 
So, circle back to this Power Trio: our main himbo ghosts. 
Luke, Alex and Reggie have a lot of common settings of your basic Power Trios, but to their own degree; the Comic Trio being surely the most fitting for them as they are indeed all himbos in their own right (yes, Alex is SO included even though he’s the one who holds the braincell most of the time). 
However, I maintain that other than the obvious Rock Trio (which I will get on in a beat), the most evident trope for Luke, Alex and Reggie is the Brawn, Brains and Beauty: 
“Brawn — body or the impulsive, pleasure-seeking one [Luke] Brain — mind or the academic, reasonable one [Alex] Beauty — heart or the one who ties them together, as the calming, healing influence [Reggie]” 
Luke and Alex aren’t antagonistic towards each other at all as you would expect from most of these common tropes (especially Freudian Trio; which is also very fitting for them as they all have each contrasting personalities), but Luke and Alex have the type of personalities that would ensue them getting conflictive towards each other. Enter Reggie, who’s a happy bean and hates conflict. 
They’re also obviously a perfectly balanced best friends trio, which is super uncommon. I’ve talked about how Alex and Reggie seem like actual best friends more than they do with Luke on their own but that’s only because Luke suffers from his being the male protagonist so the plot forces him to be on his own (or with Julie) oftentimes and so he leaves Alex and Reggie to develop more their Power Duo friendship on screen. 
But it is no secret that Luke is, to his core, the central and focal point of their bond. He’s the one who, according to the plot, ties them together as he is their Leader character. 
And Luke is a good one at it, too. Even if he’s not as bright or as emotionally sensitive as the other two, Luke fights for what he believes in and what they all want and he protects them. And Alex and Reggie pay back by being the most loyal and caring they can be. So it’s great.
Now, I'll get on the absolute softest side of them as both their canon platonic bond and why I tear up imagining them as something else than that:
The Family of Choice aspect
Luke, Alex and Reggie are together because of their shared interest in music and dream of making a life out of it, sure. But things happened along the way that made them have a deeper bond than that, and it's what forged them, almost by fire, closer together and no, I'm not just talking about the poisoned hotdog that drove them to an early grave at just 17: all three of them have lost their families one way or the other. And in doing so, the three of them found a family in each other. (Which then they end up adding Julie to it and it's an absolute blessing).
Luke ran away from home after a heated fight with his mom, which took an emotional toll on him and we learn that even though they had a difficult relationship, the Pattersons loved their only child enough to still commemorate him on his birthday even 25 years after his passing.
And even if we don't know a lot about them, we know that Reggie's relationship with his parents was also hard on him because they were a "fight away from a divorce", which implies that their arguing escalated to the points that even Luke knew about them.
And then you have Alex, who probably has the hardest backstory with his parents and their stopping "being cool" after he told them he was gay.
So you have three boys who are very inclined to love and appreciating family (Luke writing Unsaid, Emily is an evident example of how much his mom matters to him, Reggie being the first to ask to see his parents after they come back and then Alex voicing his 'I was always trustworthy' and the implication that he trusted his parents enough to tell them about his sexuality) losing that ground and safe place and deciding to build one of their own with each other:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The symbolism of them being a ‘Rock Trio’ - guitar, bass, and drums
As it has been discussed a few times before on this site: Kenny Ortega lives for symbolism and he likes implementing imagery and semiotics into his stuff. So, yeah, I absolutely believe you can look into their instruments as a window to who they are as characters and how they blend together -- like their music does. 
You have Luke in guitars (and vocals, but that’s not key here): Guitar is in charge of harmony. And it being a lead guitar is also very up-in-your-face. The guitar makes its presence known, it is obvious, and usually a central focus--- it’s Luke through and through. 
Then you have Drums: Drums is in charge of rhythm. It provides the ground they all follow, the stability, it is the backbone. It’s loud when it needs to, but it can blend in the back, too. And drums is usually placed behind, laid back -- if that doesn’t say Alex, I don’t know what does.
And there’s the bridge between both: Bass. “It bridges the gap between treble (guitar) and percussion (drums), providing a rhythmic and harmonic function at the same time”. (x) It serves both elements constituting music. Bass is low, quiet, and often underlooked but it is essential in a band. You just can’t be without bass -- Just like Reggie, who’s an odd mix of both Luke and Alex. 
Another set of “Rule of three” that these himbos are is the Hands (Luke), the Head (Alex) and the Heart (Reggie), meaning that Luke is the one who takes actions, Alex is the sensible one and Reggie is the sensitive one. 
All in all, they’re the whole set together. You can’t just have one without the other two, either as friends or siblings tropes-- they’re just that tight.
You just can’t pin-point if either of them love one above the other, it’s all equal. And even if you feel like one is third-wheeling, it’s still alright. You know why? Because third-wheels provide support and comfort. Just like these three do for each other.

Yogscast Starter Pack/Master Post
Hello!! I’ve had quite a few people express interest in exploring the Yogscast’s content recently! The yogs fandom’s source of content is a little hard to pin down and it’s kind of a lot of information, so I wanted to put together a more thorough compilation of summaries and places to start for anyone who’s not sure or just curious! Below the cut is my Yogscast Start Kit Master PostTM. 
I hope this helps, and don’t hesitate at all if you have any questions :)
Who are the Yogscast?
The Yogscast is a large group of youtubers who have a history of creating largely Minecraft-based content; they create stories, develop characters, and create lore-filled worlds through the many facets of minecraft that’s essentially been modded to hell.
This content isn’t just in one place or with one group of people, but rather a large collection of pairs, individuals, and groups of yogscast (and non-yogscast) members who’ve created a large number of respective series, often featuring a specific modpack, specific characters, a specific storyline, etc.
For example, Simon and Lewis (Honeydew and Xephos are their characters, respectively) are the main two individuals that started the Yogscast youtube channel,  Duncan later joins them, they become the main three yogscast icons, sips and sjin become the secondary two, and it goes on and on as the fanbase and number of creators grew. This means that, collectively, there are a…. STUPID large amount of different minecraft series that can technically be filed under “yogscast minecraft lore/ universe”.
Most of their series are unscripted, but they follow general arcs or set goals (e.g. going to space, building a jaffa cake factory, becoming proficient at a specific mod, etc). This allows hilarity to ensue when everything inevitably doesn’t go anyone’s way lmao
Oh cool, w. where am I supposed to even start, then
Compilations are always a good go-to if you’re interested in getting a feel for personalities, humor, and content style (I recommend looking up Yogscast Ultimate Edition videos!). If you’re just looking for a place to dive in, you’ve got a couple of options! I’ve sorted everything below by creator, as most yogs creators tend to do series within a specific set or group of people.
MAIN CREATORS & THEIR SERIES:
Lewis (Xephos) and Simon (Honeydew): These two are the “main two” figure heads of the yogscast! They started the main Yogscast channel about a decade ago and started their minecraft beginnings with the infamous series “Shadow of Israphel.” Xephos, the Spaceman and the one with the braincell, and Honeydew, the dwarven brawn and charisma of the two, also often team up with Duncan, as the three of them are featured in some of the Yogs’ most well-known minecraft series.
              Shadow of Israphel –  The OG series! Started all the way back when Minecraft was in beta, as soon as multiplayer became available. No mods, eventually scripted when NPCs are introduced. Hilarious interactions between NPCS and our heroes, and the nostalgic series that most every Yogs fan holds close to their heart!
              The Jaffa Factory –  Modpack: “Tekkit.” This was the first big modded minecraft series they did, and the beginning of the trend of hosting huge servers that almost every yog member hosted a different series on. Not scripted. Duncan (Lalna or Lividcoffee) joins them for the first time, and from this point on, they become a trio! unscripted and a mess. Sips and Sjin also eventually join!
              Moonquest –  Modpack: “MoonQuest.” Lewis, Simon, and Duncan attempt reaching the moon! It’s… in more than one way, a tad bit disastrous. This is the era when the Yogs started making songs and animations based off their minecraft series! (Watch this!) unscripted and disastrous.
             Yoglabs – Simon and Lewis. This one was a weekly mod review that developed into some questionable behavior via Lewis (Xephos). Really enjoyable, not chronological (each episode is independent, more or less- you can watch out of order)! It spans most of the entirety of their time on youtube. Various mods, just Simon and Lewis. (Watch this!) Most episodes of this series end up with Simon blowing up Yoglabs tbh
 Duncan (Lividcoffee, or Lalna) and Kim (Nanosounds): Lalna, or lividcoffee, is the well-known mad scientist of the server! His personality tends to change depending on the context and series, but when he’s with kim, he’s a friendly goof! Kim/Nano, his apprentice, starts as a true-to-definition noob at minecraft and eventually becomes a pro with magics and whatever Lalna happens to teach her! These two have their own narrative and call their storyline series “Flux Buddies,” which involves them trying to cure Kim’s infection of a magic substance called “Flux.” Good Duo. Pure. Eventually, drama with clones ensue!
              The Apprentice –  Their first series, in the “Tekkit” Era. It’s worth noting that Duncan has a solo series in the “Tekkit” Era called Duncan’s Laboratory as a precursor to The Apprentice as well. The apprentice is worth checking out just to see what happens to Kim, how she becomes fluxed, and what the aftermath is, but that’s p much it imo. Primarily unscripted, save for when Nano becomes fluxed!
              Flux Buddies –  Flux Buddies is the biggest/longest-running series, with several “seasons”. It begins after the events of The Apprentice, with…
              Flux Buddies –  Panda Labs! Kim explores witchcraft, they explore several different facets of science and magic, and Duncan begins the search on how to unflux kim! It’s kind of his fault, so he feels pretty bad about it,,
              Flux Buddies 2,3, and 4 –  A continuation, with more mods and more hijinks! Becomes more scripted as villain characters Lalnable Hector and Specimen 5 (clones of Lalna and Nano) are introduced!
              Flux Baddies –  A spinoff, featuring Lalnable and Specimen 5 as the main duo! Half scripted; an evil perspective on the Flux Buddies plot! This series is hilarious because half the time Duncan and Kim are trying to get stuff done, and half the time they’re trying (struggling) to stay in character as the mega bad-guys of the series.
Sips and Sjin: Sips and Sjin are the famous, much loved duo of the yogscast! These two are the, er. Magnificent, definitely not gay at all nope,, duo in charge of ‘Sips Co.,’ the Dirt Company! CEO Sips and his lackey Sjin (<also architect and farmer) are an absolute disaster. But like,, in the best way possible. They spend the majority of their time in each series bantering instead of getting anything done, but everyone accepts that its just part of the charm.
              Sipsco. (Sips and Sjin Tekkit) –  Modpack: “Tekkit.” This occurs at the same time as the Jaffa Factory! Sips and Sjin build up their dirt empire whilest also making sure to spy on and keep an eye on those weird Jaffa Factory goons and their girl scout cookies. Unscripted and hilarious! These two eventually go over and join the Jaffa Factory boys (Honeydew, Xeph, and Lalna!)
              (Most of Sips and Sjin’s series follow the same formula: Get started, joke around, never really finish the series. Even still, they’re iconic to watch and enjoyable to listen to C: This goes for):
              Volts –  IMPORTANT NOTE: if you decide not to watch any of sips and sjin, just watch this. somehow this is completely unscripted, but THE BEST
              Sipsco Space Program –  Occurs at the same time as “Moonquest”. These dopes try to get to Mars. Clone hijinks eventually ensue, briefly. Unscripted
              Cheat Police –  A pun on the series “Magic Police” (In which Sjin and Duncan attempt to jail all of the most powerful mages on the server). They try to call out all of the “cheaters” on the server. The dopes fool around in creative mode while trying to call out everyone else who uses creative mode.
 Zoey and Rythian: These two only have one series, but it’s one of the yogscast’s most known! Rythian, the serious, vengeful, loner-type endermage and hater of science, recruits Zoey as his apprentice (goofy, friendly, passive, interested in both science and magic)! These two are complete opposites but a much-loved duo!
              The Blackrock Chronicle –  Three short seasons long, this series follows Rythian as he recruits Zoey (and their sharpshooting, mute dinosaur, Teep,) to get payback and revenge on Sjin and Duncan for nuking and destroying the “old world” (The first tekkit server, unrecorded). He’s also determined to prove to them the superiority of his magic and the flaws of science; conflict arises when Zoey, his mage apprentice, also expresses interest in becoming a scientist. This series’ events are scripted, and includes cameos of many other loveable yogs folks (including Nilesy, Duncan, Ravs, and Zylus n Daltos).
^This one is a must-watch for sure!! A very heart felt and endearing series!
 Strife and Parvis: These two, another well known duo by the fandom, are a fun pair for sure! (They’re my personal favorite, so I’m a tad bit biased,,) William Strife is a no-nonsense, cutthroat business man and CEO of his solutions company, Strife Solutions. Not particularly fond of magic. Alex Parvis, absolutely-all-of-the-nonsense guitarist, chaotic newby who Strife hires? Adopts? Is burdened with? Strife is forced to teach Parv the ways of minecraftia and whatnot, much to Strife’s chagrin. Parv becomes a very chaotic bloodmage.
              Solutions in Chaos –  Their first series, taking place in the Chaosville server. Will, arriving for the first time ever in minecraftia, begins to explore the region before Parvis shows up, exclaiming that lewis sent him to be taught minecraft by strife. Strife now must babysit this child and teach him minecraft. Hilarity and much exasperation ensues.
              Blood and Chaos –  Following Parv’s series with Martyn (Inthelittlewood) ‘Heroes of Mine’ (in which they explore Ars Magica), Parv finds Blood Magic Items and insists that Strife helps him become the most powerful blood mage on the server! Strife does not approve At All n doesn’t really wanna be involved in this whatsoever, but he thinks parv will either destroy himself or destroy the server If someone doesn’t keep an eye on him. So, Mr. Strife must continue to babysit this now dangerous knife-wielding child.
Hat Films: Smith (Alsmiffy), Trott (Trottimus), and Ross (djh3max): These three are a TRIP and have a large fan base of their own. They’re an inseparable gang of swindlers and chaos bringers, and they’re pretty much all sharing the same single braincell. They make everyone else’s business their own business, as their motto is “what’s yours is ours,” and prove themselves to be the havoc-wreaker of whatever server they happen to be on.
              Hat Corp –  This is their first main minecraft series that features them interacting (aka messing) with other people on the server. From “"fairly”” selling land to all of the other groups of people on the server, to starting a dangeorus rivalry with the Flux Buddies, they’re. 100% disaster energy.
Hannah (Lomadia) and Nilesy: Very wholesome good duo! They tend to explore the magic mods, most of the time with Lomadia (powerful witch, owl lady!) teaching Nilesy what’s what. Nilesy is a just a simple cat lad. Likes to sell portable pools, he’s a potion master, he’s a man of the cats.  
              Evicted –  After being evicted from their Tekkit base ‘owl island’ as pirates took over their home, Nilesy and Hannah leave to set up base elsewhere and focus on Witchcraft!
The following series’, Owl Island and Cat Island, are very similar in caliber! Just our wholesome magic animal loving duo doing witch stuff c:
Kirindave, Lyinginbedmon, and Ridgedog: The last extremely notable lore-heavy minecraft characters making appearances on yogscast minecraft servers are regarded as the “demigods” of the yogs minecraft universe. Though they don’t necessarily do a lot of content together, I grouped them together for relevancy sakes. Kirin and Lying, both mod developers and masters at their respective magical crafts, have a bit of a rivalry going on, where as Ridgedog is the kind of “trickster” demigod, doing what he pleases and happily poking fun or messing around with others as he does so. They’re all a lot of fun to listen to and their series are all super interesting, so I’ve listed a few below!
              Ridgedog: Yogscast Complete –  Ridge sets up his base and plays by his own rules to become extremely proficient at a majority of mods in the server. He’s hilarious, plays largely by his own rules, and often does content with BeBopVox, another gaming and songwriting youtuber.
              Kirindave: Chaosville and Minecraft the Hard Way –  Chaosville sees the development of his rivalry with Lying as Kirin masters blood magic and other magics on the server, and Minecraft the Hard Way is the series following that!
              Lyinginbedmon: You can find the opposite perspective of the Chaosville rivalry in Lyings Chaosville S2. As Lying masters witchery, he and Kirin have a dangerous magically fueled ““prank”” war. Lying’s Witch in the Woods follows suit just like Kirin’s Minecraft the Hard Way.

Changes 05
One week till the comeback and it’s our puppy Jeno’s birthday! My heart is so uwu...did anyone else watch their teaser? I might end up bias switching this comeback...le sigh..
Do you agree that things change in time? Well four years abroad would tell wouldn’t it?
Pairing: Reader x Jeno ft. NCT
Words: 3051
Warning: Mild swearing
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 
Tumblr media
“So I hope you know I have to adopt you now.” Taeyong said once he had you in his arms  and you looked at your friends around you weirdly.
It had been close to a week since your first day and the boys of the NCT Dance club decided it was time to meet Jisungs best friend slash Jeno’s childhood friend. So they did what they did best and invited you to one of their club meetings where they more or less hung out, fooled around or actually talked about who was going to be performing what and when.
Things were going smoothly as far as you could tell. Yuta already knew who you were and Yukhei was keeping his distance since Jeno and Jisung were both present but that didn’t stop Taeyong, Johnny or Doyoung from attacking you.
“She’s much prettier than I thought.” Doyoung, which also happened to be Jeno’s favorite mentor and conveniently the bunny boy said, “You can see the ballerina in her.” 
‘Help me’ you mouthed to Jeno and Jisung who stayed in their respective places only to mouth back sorry, not wanting to get in the way of the older members smothering.
“I’m so glad the boys decided to surround themselves with such good influences.” Johnny said, “First Hana and now Y/N. Jisung you are one lucky guy.” 
“Wait what?” Jisung asked, mouth dropped as Jeno felt the unwanted jealousy to build once more, “She isn’t…” 
“Dude, she was friends with Jeno first. Jeno’s the lucky one.” Yuta argued as Jaemin nodded his head in agreement, “Don’t you see the two of them around school?”
“No, but I always see her and Jisung in the practice room at like six in the morning.” Ten, who was Jisungs main mentor said, “Anyone who can get Jisung into the practice room that early is a favorite of mine.” 
“Hah...I made her do six but she’s normally insistent on five.” Jisung interrupted but was ignored as the older boys continued to gush over you.
“They didn’t do this with Hana.” Jaemin whispered to the two boys, who both agreed.
“Dude, no one actually talked much about Hana before you two started dating either.” Mark, who was one of the younger ones, said coming to sit next to the trio, “Jeno hasn’t shut up about Y/N since he started at the academy and Jisung started talking about a person with the same name after a summer away. How did you two not put the pieces together?”
“They shared one braincell.” Jaemin stated and quickly turned his attention to the conversation when Jaehyun asked who was the better dancer, Jeno or Jisung.
“It’s obvious isn’t it?” you asked back from your position between Taeyong and Doyoung, “They’re both incredible dancers in their own way. Jeno has a lot of strength in his movement but can also flow when he wants to. Jisungs pro at popping a locking but also picks up choreo with a snap of his fingers. To top it all, they were the only two who qualified for regionals last year. They’re in a league of their own.” 
The room was silent once you were finished your answers and suddenly you felt Taeyong and Doyoung's arms wrapped around you in a tight hug.
“She really is our daughter. Look at her praising our sons!” Taeyong said fake crying.
“Now I see why Winwin kept her around all these years.” Yuta said joining in on the fake crying while he wrapped his arms around your neck from behind.
“She’s perfect!!” Doyoung finished as the trio continued to fake sob.
Slowly but surely, you felt the air around you get really thick.
“And suddenly I can’t breath.” you said, breaking away from the hug and bowed to the group quickly, “I have a bunch of assignments to finish so I’ll let you guys get back to whatever meeting you guys were going to have. I know I’ve met a few of you before but it was nice meeting the rest of you.” 
Grabbing your bag from the side, you quickly waved to the group, “I’ll see you guys around.” and with that, you were out the door leaving all eighteen boys to stare after you.
A few seconds later, Jeno hopped off the desk he was sitting and grabbed his bag. 
“We’re done with our meeting too right? We’ve discussed what we had to discuss and stuff?” he asked quickly as both Taeyong and Doyoung nodded their heads, “Great, then I’ll see you guys tomorrow.” and just as quickly as he hopped off the desk, he was out the door.
“So Jeno?” Ten asked Jisung who nodded as the boys slowly figured out why their national champion left in such a rush, “The way you talked about her made it seem like she was your type.” 
“Yea, but Jeno’s been in love with her longer and what best friend would I be if I got in their way?” Jisung asked as a mischievous grin made its way to his face “Plus, you should see how green he gets when she and I work on our duet together in and out of classes.” 
“You really are the evil one.” Jaemin said with a slight cringe, “How much dirt do you have on Y/N?”
“I’ve held her hair back for three summers as she puked into the lake in the middle of our end of camp party…” he started, “And I have pictures to prove it along with drunken confessions. It’s obvious the two never stopped caring for the other even after all this time apart.”
Meanwhile, you were at the entrance of the building when you heard someone call your name and you turned around to see Jeno, holding his bag strap as he ran towards you.
“Jeno? Did I forget something?” you asked curiously, tilting your head to the side in a cute manner.
“N-no.” he answered, shaking his head quickly, “We were done with our usual meeting and only those who are going to perform next week had to stay so I thought I would try to catch up with you. Do you want to grab dinner before we head home?” 
You raised your eyebrows at your friend, wondering what had gotten into him since this was the first time since you got back that he invited you to eat without the rest of the group.
“Sure.” you said with a nod, “Lead the way.” 
The two of you ended up at a restaurant you recalled going to often when you were younger and was surprised that it was still around after all these years.
“So are you going to tell me?” Jeno asked once the two of you ordered what you wanted to eat.
“Tell you? Tell you what?” you asked back as you took a sip of your tea.
“Yukhei.” Jeno said, leaning back and crossing his arm, “Jisung said he gave you a hard time during your first year of camp but he’s kept tight-lipped about the rest. Said it wasn’t his place to say.” 
“It’s not.” you agreed thankful your friend kept your promise, “Long story short, I met him through a friend before our first year at camp which I didn’t know he’d also be attending. Before he flew back for school, he confessed and I rejected him. We ran into each other at orientation and he asked me to reconsider but my answer was firm. Thinking about it now, maybe he just never took rejection well.” you said thinking about the few times you met Yukhei. 
He was someone who had the looks and knew how to use them but unfortunately, his charms never appealed to you since your mind would often drift to the person sitting in front of you. The first time you rejected him, you used the long distance excuse, Yukhei had accepted the answer at the time but the second time, he was more insistent. When you met at camp, he resorted to using third grade tactics to get your attention which also resulted in you hurting yourself. 
“Then what did Jisung mean that it was because of him that you almost never danced again?” Jeno asked once more and you inwardly winced but thankful that Jeno was far away from Yukhei at the moment. He wasn’t going to like your answer.
“I got into an accident during our first year of camp.” you started off slowly as Jeno took in a breath, “It was somewhere in the middle where all the positions for our end of summer show was decided. My group went behind my back and nominated me for air time, which meant that if anyone was going to be flipped, it was me.  Naturally, we figured that Jisung would be the one to do it since we’d been partners all summer already. Yukhei and a few of the other guys objected the idea so we held auditions and asked a counsellor to be the judge.” 
You scrunched up your nose, “Unfortunately, I never made it to the final show. Yukhei cornered me near a bunch of rocks by the shore one morning when I went for a run and he tried to make a move on me. He told me to stop playing hard to get and give in already since he was tired of playing games. When I said I would scream if he didn’t leave me alone, he grabbed my arms and the next thing I knew, I was going backwards and a sharp pain went through my leg.” 
“You have to be kidding.” Jeno said, feeling anger build inside and clenched his fist, “What happened after?”
“Apparently someone heard my scream and  Yukhei realized what happened and tried to pick me up but I wouldn’t let him touch me. The pain in my leg was so bad that I ended up blacking out. I woke up in a hospital bed and Jisung sleeping at my side. I sprained my knee so badly that they weren’t sure I’d be able to dance again since my knee wouldn’t be able to handle the pressure.” you explained, “I proved them wrong though.”
“I was gonna say...you’re doing an amazing job. I wouldn’t even have known you injured your knee if you didn’t tell me.” Jeno said, his voice laced with concern as you blushed and whispered a quiet thank you, “So I assume you had to go through physical therapy.” 
“Yea...it was intense. Because I had to do at least six months worth, I had to go to two different clinics. One in Seoul and the other one in Europe. That’s how I know Yuta, his apartment was close to the clinic so I stayed there while I recovered.” you took a sip of your tea, “I ended up going back to school a bit later than I was supposed to but given my situation, they understood and offered their full support. Jisung was with me throughout the whole process until the day I had to fly.”
Jenos brow furrowed as he tried to remember if he had heard anything about it and remembered the one year Jisung came back a bit later then everyone else. Though they had questioned it, Jisung said that something came up and Hana pretended not to know anything about it though he had overheard Jisung and Hana talking about it before. 
“And Yukhei?” he asked curiously and you shrugged, “He and WinWin seem normal at the club so I’m guessing theres no bad blood between them?”
“WinWin said he and Jisung took care of it and said nothing more. Jisung had bruised knuckles he tried to hide so I never questioned it. Yukhei came back to camp but he never associated with any of us again. WinWin is technically a leader so he has to associate with everyone equally. Doesn’t matter how he feels but he doesn’t talk to Yukhei outside of club.” you answered, 
Once the food arrived, the two of you continued to talk about you time abroad, the things you did, the place you went to and most importantly, the ballets you saw. Jeno even gifted you with his infamous eye smiles that he only reserved for certain people.  In the end, you were both happy with your stomachs filled.
“Thanks again for having dinner with me.” Jeno said as the two of you walked home side by side, “I feel like I need to blow some steam off on my punching bag from what you told me just so I don’t accidentally punch Yukhei in the face tomorrow.” 
“Thank you for inviting me.” you said smiling, a light blush across your cheeks, “And you know violence isn’t the answer. It never is.”
“Says the girl who hit Jaemin for stealing her chocolate cupcake when we were ten.” Jeno teased nudging you, “Do you...maybe want to head to our spot for a while?” 
“Sure.” you said, not ready to part ways with him just yet. You were enjoying this time with him and a small part of you felt tingly on the inside.
A little while later, the two of you were watching the sunset over the city both lost in your own thoughts.
You turned your body so you could lean your back on Jeno’s strong shoulder and felt him wrap his arm around your front. He leaned down and placed a soft kiss on the crown of your head catching you both by surprise. It didn’t feel wrong, nor did it feel right. It just felt natural, like it was meant to be.
Jeno swore to himself that he wouldn’t over think what he just did and noticed the content smile on your face. He readjusted the two of you so you were leaning more on his chest now and repositioned his arm so he could bring you closer. He grinned to himself when he heard a content sigh leave your lips and rested his head against yours. He caught a whiff of your perfume and decided it was his new favorite smell and felt himself relax. Just like the old times.
It was completely dark by the time you two decided to go home, both cherishing whatever moment you had with the other but this time, your hand was securely interlocked with his though it probably went unnoticed since you talked the whole way back. 
“I’ll see you in class tomorrow.” you said as the two of you stood in front of your gate, “Thanks again for tonight” 
“And once again, thank you for joining me. It felt nice to catch up.”Jeno said, not ready to let go of your hand yet, “Do you want to walk to school together tomorrow?”
“Jisung and I are meeting up at five in the morning to warm up and practice.” you answered with a slight frown “We haven’t even started working on our choreo yet so it’s going to be busy for the next few days. We present next Friday.”
“Then I’ll see you at five.” he said with a nod and you looked at him astonished.
“Really?” you asked and the other boy nodded. 
“Why not?” he said with a shrug, “I want to see why it takes three hours for the two of you to warm up.” 
You looked down for a moment in thought before looking back up at Jeno again, “Okay, I think we’re gonna plan to leave around five.” 
Leaning up to give Jeno a quick peck on the cheek, you turned around so you could enter your house, “See you tomorrow JenJen.” you said with a quick wave before going in and shutting the door leaving Jeno standing in front of your house. 
Jeno felt himself grinning like a silly fool, even though it was just a kiss on the cheek, it was the furthest you’d gone with him since you got back and as much as he didn’t want to overthink things, the dinner was probably the best not date he’d ever been on. 
Going back to his house, he quickly cleaned himself up before setting up several alarms knowing it would take them to wake him up on time. 
[9:45pm] Y/N♥ - PORK JISUNG!!!!
[9:45pm] MoJi - This better be important, I was just about to pass out so I can actually wake up for our practice tomorrow.
[9:47pm] Y/N♥ - Wanna come over at 4am instead….

[9:51pm] Y/N♥ - Jisung? Don’t tell me you passed out on me =_=
[9:55pm] MoJi - I’m getting my shit together for tomorrow and I’m getting Hana from her date with Jaemin and then we’re going to her place to get her shti. We’ll see you in fifteen max. We’re making Jaemin drive us.
[9:57pm]  Y/N♥ - Wtf? 
[9:58pm] MoJi - I refuse to wake up at 3am with four hours of sleep just so I can rush to your place and have you squeal over Lee Jeno for an hour. You have gossip, Hana and I are both qualified to listen and make fun of you for it. Just got to Hana, see you in ten
[10:00pm] Y/N♥ - What would I do without you guys...really (NOTICE MY HIGH SARCASM)
In the next house over, Jeno who was also about to doze off woke up to a text.
[10:05pm] NaNa - Yo. So like can I crash at yours tonight.
[10:07pm] JeNo - You live on the other side of town?
[10:10pm]  NaNa - Well my girls going to have a slumber party at your girls tonight and I don’t really want to have to go all the way home only to come pick her up in the morning.

King’s Skjald verse HCs
Because @ertrunkenerwassergeist inspired me and I’ve been working on it lately anyway.
-Gladiolus learned to speak King’s Speech (Eos’s language) partly by listening to his parents talk, but a great deal of it was by comparing each knew word to the closest nordic counterpart and cataloguing it under that. It’s one of the reasons he was so slow to talk as a child and tended to use very small sentences, or take long times to respond to anyone verbally, he was busy mentally running the words through his norse filter and then back into King’s Speech.
-As he grew older, this because less necessary, but he still does it. This can ... occasionally lead to problems that I don’t get to expand on (at least not yet?). Problems such as-
-Words that have no counterpart. Like “computer” “television” “internet” etc. It took him FOREVER to learn those words because he didn’t have an easy counterpart to them. When he was a kid and was lured into talking faster than his usual careful pace, this often led to translations of his sloppy nicknames for them coming out instead of the proper word like “picture-box” for computer “moving painting” for television and “knowing-spider’s web” for internet. He was always vaguely embarrassed about the slip-ups but Noctis thought the words were cool and tended to parrot them.
-Another issue is his occasional slip up into Norse when he forgets to complete the filter of King’s Speech to Norse and then BACK and instead blurts out his answer in Norse. This has gained him many odd looks from his parents and King Regis and Cor.
-Gladio doesn’t remember a lot of the names of countries he’s been to on earth. For instance, his homeland where Thorfinn grew up is just “home” in his mind. It has no name anymore. Maybe he used to know it, but as Gladio got older, the weaker parts of Thors’ memories faded away and that was one of them. He remembers the name “Vinland” though. He’s not sure why.
-There are few words to describe how much this boy hates Insomnia traffic. He tolerates it, he does, but a part of him never got over the sheer difference in SCALE when it comes to population. And noise. Good astrals the NOISE. For a boy with memories of little nordic villages and the endless song of creaking wood and hissing waves, the constant non-stop engine noises and humming of electronics and people in the Citadel chatting/moving can still occasionally drive this boy bonkers. It gets easier as he grows older and learns to tune it out better but- sometimes it sneaks up on him, like some kind of wall between him and the world going down without warning and he has to go hide somewhere dark and quiet, hands over his ears, trying to get the screaming collage sound out of his head.
-Loves the royal aquarium. It’s this HUGE thing in the Citadel that stretches up to the rooftop but also down into this special floor just dedicated to being an aquarium and Gladiolus ADORES IT. He’s UNDERWATER. Without having to worry about drowning. He can see the rippling water and the hundreds of fish and other water creatures swimming around in there and it’s just- gorgeous. He adores it. Even as a teenager/adult he is fully happy to just curl up in a corner of the aquarium surrounded by this miniature seaworld and bask.
-Has taught both Noctis and Ignis (and way later, Prompto) to speak Norse. Fluently. Noctis takes way too much glee in holding private conversations with Gladiolus and Ignis in Norse, knowing that no one else knows what he's saying. Will mutter Norse during parties so he can get away with cursing the annoying nobles or whining to Gladio on how he wants to leave already (Gladio sympathizes, but no you can’t leave yet).
-Gladiolus has defeated Cor in a sparring match.
-He was 12.
-Cor was torn between being so super proud of his godson he could burst and being ... afraid. Instinctively afraid on a gut-deep level that Gladiolus was going to suffer through the same things he did as a young prodigy. He knows, logically, that Regis would never do that to Gladio, NEVER. But he hears the way people are gasping and talking and he thinks of some of the things that have already happened in Gladio’s life (read: invasion of Tenebrae) and he still worries.
-Gladio meets the glaives eventually, when Nyx, Lib, and Crowe are still Dumb Rookie Teenagers. They are ... the closest things he gets to “friends in his age group” because Noctis and Ignis will forever be more his “son-friends” than “peer-friends”.
-Everybody picture Tired Viking Dad trailing along behind the Glaive Trio, alternating between being the Tired Dad Braincell and being Reckless Viking Boi because the three of them are able to bring out his Actual Age way better than any other force on the planet.
-So. Many. Shenanigans.
-Ends up teaching the Trio Norse.
-Cue Nyx gleefully being Disrespectful in Norse whenever he feels like it and Crowe yelling Norse curses while casting spells because it Sounds Cool And Witchy™.
-Also he probably ends up dating and kissing Crowe.
