#So many cute little lads out there just existing
QUARTER-FINALS MATCH 3
Tumblr media
Claude propaganda:
"To say Claude has trust issues is an understatement—you have to spend half the game earning his. (Claude isn't even his real name!) Once you have it, though, he's absolutely ride or die for you until the stars go out. He is so full of heart and ambition: He wants both sides of his heritage to get along, he wants to open borders and eliminate xenophobia and promote equality between commonfolk, and deep down, I think he craves a partner to stand with him at that new dawn, or an equal who sees his vision for the future and will fight for it just as hard. Nobody believed in him when he was a kid, but if you put your faith in him, he'll return it tenfold. Some people don't like that he's calculating, or has to leave the player character at the end of the game to go back to his homeland, but both are necessary elements for his goals to change things. He will always come back, and everyone who bets against him and his love for his companions is wrong with a big fat W. #KhalidForMostDatablePrez"
"Claude is a fun little onion of facades. He calls himself the embodiment of distrust, he acts like he's carefree and without worries, an unscrupulous schemer--and so many in universe buy into that hook line and sinker. He's used to others viewing him with suspicion and uses it as armor to obscure his not-so-dark truth: that he cares immensely, that he values minimizing the loss of life, and that above all he has so much hope that people will fundamentally choose to do better given the choice.
His front guards a center that his conflict filled world would be happy to tear apart. As the child of people from two nations in constant conflict--one of which is explicitly isolationist and dehumanizes those outside its church's reach--he hasn't really had a place where he can be without his facade. As a child he thought he could run, but when confronted with the fact that this hatred existed no matter where he ran, he chose to instead try to create a more just and kind world.
His inability to let others in beyond his facade at first may lead to a sense of distance, but isn't it then all the more satisfying when you're allowed in? All he wants is a little trust, a little faith, and--like what he wants to give everyone--a chance to be better.
And like that you got a charming young lad with a fun personality that your grandma would be thrilled to have stay forever."
Milo propaganda:
“they were in the last contest sure but i feel like they could get farther. like they're literally a nonbinary grim reaper that's also an influencer and sure sometimes the influencer stuff can get kinda overwhelming i feel like it's very clear that they care about you and want to be around you. you guys go on a reaping date. their eyes and nail colour change based on their mood too and i think it's a really cute detail!! also SLIGHT SPOILERS but they even reference rocky horror in their special ending. they are perfect to me and i love them and i believe they deserve a second chance <3”
"Vote for Milo because they deserve it
They're literally so attractive
- They are a social media influencer
- They are obsessed with an adorable little kitty and will do everything in their power to make this cat the most beloved creature in existence
- They love makeovers and helping their friends rebrand (this includes working with Damien and the PC to help Jerry the Murderer rebrand so that they really has a brand identity)
- They are a grim reaper and even help the PC plan the PC's own funeral (special ending) and they give a great speech and it's super sweet
- They will sometimes take the PC on reaping jobs with them and shenanigans ensues
So in summation, vote for Milo because, as I repeat, they deserve it"

Just want to say I love Schatzi. I think he's cute 😀👍🏻
Can we make an admirer club for him? /j XD
What is his fate after the war ended? Will he and Davenport met? Will he meet other engines (canon character) from the franchise or he just like exist in same universe as they are without meetings each other?
aw thank you very much!! So happy to see he's got some admirers! With each passing day the Schatzi fanclub grows larger XD
All awesome questions! His fate is murky. I am still in the research and development phase of his story. I have thought a lot about what his life would be like after the war and haven't fully decided what path I wish to take yet. Whatever happens it's likely it won't be all sunshine and roses. Here comes my nerd brain:
After the Treaty of Versailles, Germany had to surrender all military technology to the allies. This included airplanes, trains, ships, and weaponry. A lot of it was either scrapped, used as target practice, or integrated into allied armies for training purposes. Many Brigadeloks survive to this day and found second chances on logging railways after the war. Whatever happens to our lad, he is still going to go through a lot of hardship. All of his friends and family finally get to go home and live out their days in peace while he, most likely, would become a prisoner of war even after the war itself is long over with. Maybe his comrades find a way to save him and bring him back to Germany or take him somewhere else. Either way everyone he knew and loved will be separated from him for a long time, maybe even forever. I don't have the heart to put him through too much pain but I do love me some angst!
Schatzi will never meet Davenport in canon but I definitely want to make some little one off interactions between them for fun. They are very different in personality and build which could cause a lot of drama not to mention the whole enemies in war thing. As for canon Thomas characters! I am not sure! I sorta would like to keep it a separate story that only exists in the same "universe" but it's fun thinking about how the Skarloey engines in particular would react to him. He's so much bigger and different than them it would be like worlds colliding. I think Sir Handel in particular would absolutely despise him.
Thank you for the wonderful ask! woohoo enjoy the paragraphs oops

can I say something controversial after we just got done celebrating miles and Alex reuniting?
I think Milex is a cute ship, it is, they are an adorable pair. their chemistry is very sweet and they are like soulmates you can tell, be that platonic or not in y'alls opinions. I personally don't ship it (always been a mattlex girly myself, platonically talking). I do feel at times y'all do focus on the wrong thing with Miles and Alex. some of you lot love defending Miles and how he doesn't deserve to just be associated with Alex but please and I beg you, tell me truthfully you know Miles from his solo work and not from TLSP. there's few of us, I think Miles is great and his music is good, I saw him before AM live FFS but no I wouldn't know Miles without Alex. It's just a thing that will always exist and it's unfortunate I know but it's true. I also think documenting and cherry picking at specific moments that have literally no correlation at all to milex romantic moments and making them oddly sexual is fucking odd. like I'll give you the d, I wish you would: that's an innuendo, that's funny and you can make that sexual cuz they did. they act like an old married couple at times. the lentils joke about their bad habits for example, it's cute and domestic. it's fic material. I understand that, trust me but like sometimes they are just on coke and giggling like little boys over like bringing bread and crumpets to the studio and that's not an allegory for fucking each other (an actual real post someone made). please it's odd and fetishism of two men who are straight. I understand that being gay is still a taboo subject for some people from more oppressive countries and maybe at 14 when you found AM, milex was your first introduction to shipping culture and men being shipped together, that would be exciting to you. However the nuances of that is that it can cross a line to a degree where you aren't respecting the two real people. I was in the Dan and Phil fandom before they came out and we had an era called 2012 where Dan especially was on the defense constantly to a point where it was a taboo to us to talk about but through time, that defense became more empathetic with them coming out. we all grew up and that behaviour from when we were kids was not ok anymore and that frustration was valid. I have many straight friends who have felt that pressure to be part of the LGBT community in order to not be shamed and on the flip side, I don't even need to tell you how hard it is still for lgbtqia people to want to hide in the closet with all the problems we still as a society have to face.
what I'm trying to say is, these are straight men and it's ok for straight men to be affectionate with their friends, I know it may still be frowned upon in some cultures but we wouldn't have am without a close bond between the lads. we wouldn't have TLSP without miles and Alex being best friends. i don't think milex is wrong, plz do what you want, draw your porn art if you want, write fics upon fics but plz just think about why this makes you so happy and understand the true consequences on what you say because you could be upsetting the gay community around you by being elated that miles can kiss his friend on the cheek. let boys love each other platonically or not, it doesn't matter. If Alex or Miles came out tomorrow, I'd support them, it's just something to think about.
Plus it's ok for teenagers and younger people to see what the boys do and want that, that's valid and I hope you have fun. There's a point where you may realise that something you said was a kid that you don't agree with and that's part of growing up, I know (hence the dnp rant). I see this now as an adult and think of that as crossing a line by prying at someone's sexuality cuz that's not mine to know and I don't know that person in real life. However if you are like a long time monkeys fan in your late 20s, early 30s, please consider what you're doing and re-evaluate what this means to you because maybe it's not just Alex and Miles that make you feel this way and that's not healthy: that's a parasocial relationship you've held for so long you don't know any different.

HEARTSTOPPER AU?!?!!!! bestie.... tell me everything ASAP omg
ngl, anon, i saw this ask this morning and i was like... heartstopper au?! HEARTSTOPPER AU?! but how did they know?! have the anons become mind readers or something?! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
.... buuuut then i remembered that i said something about a heartstopper au in my tags at like 2:30AM last night (this morning actually but shhhh it counts as the night.) and i was just like. OHHHHH YEAH everything makes sense now 😅 good lord i am stewpid
anyways YES! omg! heartstopper au 🥺🥺😍 please perceive with me:
charles is charlie (obviously lmao 🤭) but also omg it actually works so perfectly i am losing my mind. because: he's a little younger than pierre, he's got the dark curls and blue/green eyes, god KNOWS he doubts himself and says "sorry" too much. he's even very quick too!!
pierre is nick (again, OBVIOUSLY.) he's got the more classic jock build, but he's absolutely a sweetheart and a genuinely decent person under the swagger. he's even got the blond-ish hair and blue eyes ahhhhhhhhhh
(though if i ever write this fic, pierre would be a football lad and not a rugby lad. because. come on)
anyways - just IMAGINE piarles getting seated together in form. charles initially being all "ughhhh a football lad 🙄🙄" but then pierre is actually so... nice?? and really really cute?? and maybe charles starts to get butterflies, just a little bit 🥺
and then the whole ben thing too!! charles has this boy he's sort of seeing (this would have to be an original character, hello adam) but this boy is an absolute DICK and he's only using charles/calling him over to make out when it suits him. and for the rest of the time, he pretends charles doesn't exist and treats him like utter shit
and then maybe charles finally decides enough is enough and goes to tell ben/adam it's over. but then adam tries to kiss him again despite charles saying no, and then --
pierre followed the beautiful boy who sat next to him in form, his new friend. he heard charles say no. he saw adam kiss him anyway. and pierre is rightfully furious, and rips adam off charles like "he said no!"
ahhhh and then pierre and charles become closer and closer 🥺🥺 charles is a friend like pierre has never had before. spending time with him just makes pierre so HAPPY in a way he doesn't really feel with his other friends. everyone notices.
charles' friends (the twitch quartet maybe?? omg) tell him "charles don't do this don't fall in love with a straight boy oh my GOD" but charles does of course. he can't help it 🥺
except that pierre might not be so straight after all!!! he invites charles to one of the football lads' parties, and we all know what happens there... the "would you kiss someone who wasn't a girl? would you kiss me?" scene for piarles. just imagine it. IMAGINE it. oh my goddddd 😭😭🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
... so yeah, i have so many feelings about a piarles heartstopper au. i just think it would just be so PERFECT 😭💙💙 *sobs quietly and cradles idea closer to chest*

Camping Trip Gone Wrong or Right...? (Not Clickbait)
jkfvgfd such a dumbass title but its the only one I could think of anyways heyo here’s some more Cryptid Sneo but instead of a situation where you’re being hunted by him, this is meant to be more so a cute and fluffy story!
Idk what the fuck prompted this tbh, I just wanted to write with Sneo some more I suppose- and also I’m in love with a lil lad I created during this fgjdkjdkfsld goddammit I fell in love so fast but I’ll talk more bout him once the story’s finished down below
TRIGGER WARNINGS: Gunshot Wound, Blood, Violence, and Death
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You grabbed your backpack and placed it down on the table after opening it up, you then walked over and grabbed some supplies, stuffing them inside along with plenty of food and stuff to drink, and just overall the things you knew you’d need for the little trip you had been planning, you had been planning to go camping in the forest for so long now. After packing everything up you looked at the clock, there was still plenty of time before sunset so you weren’t in too big of a rush.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You looked around before spotting your camera, you quickly grabbed it and placed it into the bag as well, there was no particular reason you were taking it in all honesty, maybe just to film some of the beautiful scenery, after all… That’s what this particular forest was known for, its beautiful scenery and the views, after packing your camera away you then grabbed another bag, this one would be used to gather any items found via foraging because you didn’t want to get your backpack dirty after all so this bag would do to hold anything found that you may want to take home.
-------------------------------------------------------------
After making sure everything was in order and changing into some gear that’d better suit the camping in the forest, you grabbed your backpack and headed out the door, walking over to your car you then quickly loaded it into the trunk, you were already getting very excited, the thoughts of what you could find in the forest, what you might see, and well you honestly just loved nature very much so why wouldn’t you be excited?
------------------------------------------------------
As you got into your car, you began to think about the forest, there was o n e thing you had just neglected to think about and that was the supposed rumors of some kind of humongous beast roaming around.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
…Not like you believed that anyways, the way people described the supposed creature was absurd, no way anything like that could exist! You didn’t believe it one bit in all honesty nor did you care about looking into it either, no, you were honestly just out here for the views, you weren’t out here for some folktale or weird stories.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
You then began driving, luckily for you the forest wasn’t too far away, you began thinking of all the stuff you wanted to film out there, the river and waterfall was one of the many you wanted to capture and then you began to think about the field full of wildflowers, many people had described this forest as the one that has it all!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
…Eventually you got to your destination, you pulled your car into a spot that’d be easy to get out from and made sure it wouldn’t get stuck because that’s the last thing you wanted, and then you were quickly getting out and almost tripping because of your excitement to get to your trunk, you then opened it up and grabbed your stuff, you closed the trunk and then began walking, you didn’t want to set up camp directly right beside your vehicle but also didn’t want to stray too far from it either so you decided to find a nice balanced spot, not too far and not too close to your vehicle, once that was done, you began setting everything up.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
It took you a long time to get the tent set up and it had honestly began to frustrate you but eventually you managed to get it set up, you sighed and decided to take a break after that was done and reached into your bag to pull out your camcorder, you turned it on and pointed it at yourself giving it a wave “I uh, this isn’t gonna be much, just a nature documentary I guess?”
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“Who knows, might find some cool shit, pretty sights, et-cetera… Really excited to just get away from it all, be out here… It’s nice and peaceful” You then pointed it at your setup and then toward the trees “Woah… Holy shit, those trees are huge, a lot bigger than I thought they’d be…” The trees had to be over fifty foot at the very least, after filming the surrounding area you then waved goodbye to the camera, saying you’d film more later and then switched it off and set it back in the bag. After that you went off to go gather some rocks and other things and then some sticks for the campfire tonight, this was only day one, the setup day where you get everything in order.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tomorrow would be the day you’d be going hiking, filming, and of course foraging as well…! By the time you got enough sticks and rocks the sun was on its way down, descending into the earth or well, that’s what it looked like anyways of course. You went ahead and got the little makeshift fire pit ready to go and then you got out the matches you had taken, you struck one and threw it onto the sticks and sure enough.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
There was your fire, you smiled, taking a deep breath and looking toward the sunset, it looked so gorgeous out here, you decided to pull out your camera again and filmed the sunset, commenting on how nice this was and then you let the video linger, watching the sun go down a bit more before shutting it off and putting it away again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
You were just so excited! You couldn’t help it, you wanted to go out right now and explore if you were being honest but you knew better, going exploring at night in a forest wasn’t the safest, too many predators come out late at night to hunt, you then heard your stomach growl and looked down “Oh… Right, food” 
--------------------------------------------------------------
You chuckled a bit before grabbing some of the food you packed, you prepared that and got to cooking, once your food was finished you finally took a seat and begun to chow down, drinking some water and listening to the sounds of the forest, the slight breeze was causing the trees and bushes to rustle but only slightly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
You heard birds chirping and even a mourning dove, this was really nice… After finishing your food, the sun had finally gone down, the moon slowly began to rise and at that point you made sure to put the containers you had brought some of the food in away and of course the pot you had cooked in was put away as well, you didn’t want to go attracting any wild animals to your campsite after all and then you headed into your tent for the night, you turned the lantern on to crawl into your sleeping bag and then turned it off once you got situated, you took a deep breath and then slowly closed your eyes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
. . . During the night, you slept fairly well until loud sounds had woken you up and admittedly startled you, there was a gunshot and then a cry but it definitely didn’t sound human but also you had never truly heard a sound like that, either way, you figured it must’ve been some kind of animal so you decided not to go and investigate it and instead laid back down and closed your eyes, the rest of the night went undisturbed and you slept until morning, your eyes slowly opening and you stared up at the ceiling of the tent, had you been at home you would have just continued sleeping in but you wasted little time is raising up, rubbing at your eyes and letting out a yawn.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You then stretched before finally beginning to stir, unzipping your tent and crawling out of there, first thing’s first, you made yourself some breakfast and chowed down on that before finally grabbing your bag and pulling out your camera, you turned it on and smiled, waving into it “So uh, last night was… Relatively good, I heard a gunshot and then a weird ass sound though… Dunno how to describe it, it sounded like a cry but it… It wasn’t human, either way, I’m gonna try and uh, not think about it too much… Time for some foraging …And of course filming, so let’s go” You stood up from your seat and quickly headed off, almost tripping over your feet again because honestly your excitement had begun building up already.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You couldn’t wait to get out there and see all the gorgeous sights, maybe even find some fun little things lying around that you could take back home, you headed down one of the trails that were in the forest, there were a few trails winding around the place but you didn’t necessarily plan to stay fully on the trail the entire time, you stayed on it about halfway into the forest or what you felt was halfway anyways, just filming some of the trees and sounds, occasionally commenting on the scenery, you filmed a few animals that ran by or ones that were just playing around.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And then finally you deviated from the trail, you did have a map with you, you weren’t just gonna go running off into the forest without one, you had pulled it out of your bag when you deviated from the trail to take a look at it, you were heading to the river, the waterfall first and foremost because you wanted to get that on camera before anything else so you began heading the direction the map showed it to be in.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The sounds of birds chirping and the breeze blowing the plants was calming, peaceful even, but you still couldn’t get last night out of your head no matter how hard you tried, you remembered that cry, no… Maybe it was even a wail of pain, it made you frown, thinking about what happened because you knew it must’ve been hunters. You sighed and shook your head, just continuing on until eventually you heard the sounds of the river, the water roaring and rolling, you wasted little time and ran toward the sounds, excitement getting the better of you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Eventually you saw it, you saw the river and then… The waterfall… You gasped in awe, it really was beautiful, you slowly filmed it, starting from one end of the river all the way over to the waterfall “...Wow… So… Beautiful…” You commented but other than that you remained silent, letting the sounds of the river and waterfall do their thing, that was more than enough sound, you didn’t have to speak, after filming it for a bit you then shut your camera off and put it back inside the backpack, you took out the other bag “Time for some foraging…” You then began walking off in the other direction, there was a bit of a clearing not too far from there so there wouldn’t be as many plants or things obstructing you from gathering stuff.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Eventually you made it there and smiled, it looked cute, the sun shone down on that spot since the trees weren’t obstructing anything here, the grass wasn’t too tall either, it was just perfect, in fact it was the perfect spot to take a break in after you foraged… Which you quickly got to work, you found some cute little mushrooms, some of them you couldn’t take but you admired them nonetheless, then others you found and stuffed into your bag.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
You found some plants that could be useful, you knew which were bad and which were good, you took some of the plants around, some roots, nuts, some seeds, and even some cute little rocks that were strewn about, and then you saw the berry bushes, you definitely began picking those and even snacking on a few of them, you did of course leave some behind for the animals and then you sat down in the clearing, taking a deep breath and pulling some water from your backpack.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
You took some sips and then looked around, this was nice, this was peaceful… You just listened to the sounds of the forest, sitting there with your eyes closed and occasionally taking a few sips of water, however you jumped slightly upon hearing the nearby bushes rustle, this caused you to quickly stand up, you quickly put your water away and looked over to the rustling bushes, it was coming from those berry bushes that you had just been at, you grew slightly nervous, worrying it might be a bear or something so you quickly grabbed a large stick and something to create a loud noise out of your backpack, if that didn’t work you still had some bear spray you packed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
However nothing came out of it, your curiosity was getting the better of you but you had your items if need be so you took a deep breath and slowly began walking over to those bushes, you felt tense as you stopped at the bushes, hesitation showing in your face, your brain told you to just walk away, to get away from those bushes but something else was telling you to investigate… Being curious, you slowly peered over the bushes and your eyes widened at what you saw, in fact… You weren’t even sure if what you were seeing was real right now because this didn’t look like ANY creature you had ever heard of before.
--------------------------------------------------------------
…The creature was about one foot, if even that tall… Completely white and seemed to be fuzzy all over, the fuzzy fur looked frazzled in all honesty and it had a long pointed nose, you saw its eyes were almost… Squinty, maybe it couldn’t see…? You didn’t know, you had no clue what this fucking thing even was!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You took notice of the toe beans and then finally the fluffy and stubby little tail it had but then you noticed something even worse, red… Red on its fur… Something red and sticky, that… That looked like blood, in fact the closer you looked you spotted a wound on its body and you couldn’t help the gasp that escaped your mouth, that’s when its eyes shot open, beady little eyes looking up at you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The thing that weirded you out the most is the look of pure terror in its expression, it felt human, too human but it… It wasn’t human… “Pi!” It began crying, just saying ‘Pi!’ over and over again it sounded like it was crying out for something and you noticed it looked like it was in pain, you quickly set your items down and put your hands up in defense “H-Hey hey…! S-Sh sh… Shhh! It’s okay…! It’s okay, I-I’m not gonna hurt you, I promise… O-Oh my gosh… Oh you poor thing…”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You got a little closer and it began struggling, crying out even louder, trying to get up which only made its pain worse “H-Hey please, please… It’s okay…! It’s okay…! I-I don’t wanna hurt you, I-I want to help… Help” You repeated to which it somewhat quieted down but it looked at you in a very untrusting manner.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“O-Okay… U…Um… Okay, so, uh…” You began, noticing it tilted its head “...C-Can… Wait…”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“...Y-You can understand me…?” When it somewhat nodded at you, you began to question if this was even real, was this real…? …Maybe those berries were out of date or maybe you had somehow mistaken them for edible berries, but either way, you felt bad, this creature… Whatever it was, it was hurt, and hurt pretty badly. “O-Okay… I-I want to help… Y-Your wound… It looks bad, w-will you uh, um… Will you let me help you?” The creature looked toward its wound and cringed, whining in pain when it saw the wound for itself and then it looked back at you, still distrusting but could you really blame the lil guy?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There was a long pause before the creature slowly nodded, still giving you a distrustful look “I-I promise, I-I’m not gonna try anything, no funny business” A pause before it nodded “...Pi!” You then took off your backpack and began digging around inside of it, the creature looking between you and it cautiously, you then pulled out a bottle of water and a med-kit and showed it off “Med-kit… To help, with… With your wound, s-since you can understand me… I-I won’t sugarcoat it… I-It’s gonna hurt a bit but I promise, but this will help… Very much” The creature whined but nodded “P-Pi…” You took a deep breath “...I need to get closer to you, to help so please… Please don’t bite or scratch me…” The creature nodded its head and you felt relief.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Okay… The water, I should say… I-I have to use some bottled water to c-clean the wound a bit… T-The river’s too far away and I don’t wanna risk you bleeding out …Er… Any more than you have already” A ‘pi’ for confirmation and then you got close enough and inspected over its wound, your eyes widening… That was a bullet wound and then it struck you, this… This was what you heard last night! You heard a gunshot and then some kind of weird cry you had never heard before, th-this had to be it! You looked toward its mouth and noticed there was some blood on its mouth “...O-Oh sweetheart… You… Poor thing… Di-Did a bullet get lodged in there?” The creature weakly nodded “Pi…” And then you sighed, you felt so bad for this poor little guy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
“...Did… Did you manage to get it out…?” The creature nodded MUCH to your relief because if it hadn’t gotten it out, you honestly didn’t know how you’d go about removing something like that but then you shuddered upon thinking about how the other must’ve went about getting said bullet out, you shook your head and took some cloth out of the med-kit “This is g-gonna sting… I-I’m sorry, but… The wound needs to be cleaned or uh, it might get infected” The creature huffed but nodded and you wasted no more time in dampening the cloth and you pushed it against the surrounding area as gently as you could, the creature hissed but otherwise didn’t try to bite you or anything.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
“I’m sorry little one… I’m sorry, just shh… It’s okay, I’ll get this cleaned up and patched up in no time…” After managing to clean as much blood as you could away you then grabbed some other items out of the med-kit, a wrap bandage and then some ointment that would prevent infections, you were very lucky the creature had managed to get the actual bullet out but also it caused itself to bleed a bit more in the process, but if it still had the bullet in there well… You didn’t exactly know what animal hospital would take a creature like this, that and also you were hours away from one too, and what’s worse, looking at the wound, that bullet could have easily done a lot more damage had it shot just a bit over to the left.
----------------------------------------------------------------
“Okay, this is gonna sting some more, this ointment though will stop the wound from becoming infected…” You gently rubbed some on there, the creature hissing and whining “Shhh… Shshsh… I know, I know it hurts but you’re alright, you’re okay… I got you…” The creature whimpered but tried to stay still as you finished applying the ointment and then you gently wrapped the bandage over the wound.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
It seemed to make the creature a bit uncomfortable as it wasn’t used to this but other than that you noticed the creature begin to somewhat relax “P…Pi…” You smiled gently “There you go… Do you uh, have a name?” It tilted its head before just saying ‘Pi!’ again and then you sighed “Ah, r-right… You uh, can’t… Actually talk… Okay um… H-How about I call you… Pipi or… Pip?” The creature seemed delighted with that.
--------------------------------------------------------------
…Even though it’s not the most creative name, you smiled nonetheless as you placed the med-kit back into your backpack “Alright… Pipi it is… Uh, are you thirsty? Or hungry?” Pip nodded enthusiastically “Pi! Pi pi pi!” It cheered and tried to get up, only to begin wobbling so it laid back down, you smiled and chuckled “Don’t move around too much, silly… You’ll agitate your wound, here” 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
You gave Pipi the water bottle and it looked over it for a few seconds, it was holding onto it in such an awkward way but at the same time it didn’t necessarily have thumbs, in fact its hands or paws just looked kinda stumpy but either way Pip began gulping down the remains of the water and at one point it tried to eat the water bottle which you quickly snatched away.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“No no! Th-That isn’t for eating…!” Pip pouted and crossed its arms “Pipi! Pi!” You sighed and rolled your eyes “Look, I have ACTUAL food if you want, this is plastic, if you eat it, it’ll hurt you” Pip was still pouting but it looked curious as you pulled out a container of leftovers, you opened it up and held it out to which Pipi sniffed curiously at before sticking out its tongue and making a little ‘blegh’ sound you blinked in surprise and sealed the food back up
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“O-Okay… U-Uhhh… Here then?” You then pulled out some berries that you had gathered and held them out to which Pipi once again sniffed and then swatted away and you narrowed your eyes “...P-Pipi… Ya gotta work with me here lil guy… I dunno w-what you uh, what you even are so I dunno what you eat”
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi looked at you curiously before sniffing the air and then he pointed to your pocket “Pi! PI PI PI!!!” He began frantically to which you were completely lost, you looked down at your pocket before slowly reaching inside and then you pulled out… “...W-What? …That… That’s my wallet, that’s not-” Suddenly Pip motioned you closer, you came closer to him and then he snatched your wallet from your hand
----------------------------------------------------------------------
“H-Hey!” You watched as he dug through before seemingly finding what he wanted and then he pulled out some of your money “Wh-What are you doing…?! That’s mi-” And before you could even finish your sentence, suddenly Pipi gulped down the dollar, didn’t chew it, in fact it looked like a dollar getting inserted into a vending machine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
And then Pipi made some very happy sounds, he was chirping and he handed you your wallet back to which you quickly took and placed it back in your pocket, you sighed and ran your hands down your face “...Jeez… Thanks for that…” And then you looked at him, his happy little smile and noises, you wouldn’t deny, it brought a smile to your face even if you had just lost some money “...At least you're full now I guess…? Jeez… I don’t know what you are, you make the strangest sounds, you don’t look or act like any wild animal I’ve ever seen before…”
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“...And you uh, e-eat… Eat money apparently… …Say, yo-you aren’t like, some kinda weird experiment or just a person in a costume, are you?” Pipi was still happily chirping before tilting his head “Pi…?” It seems he didn’t know what you meant by that but you hadn’t seen any kind of zipper or anything noticeable making it a costume, so no, this was real, this was a real living being in front of you and you had no idea what it even was, and then you began to think about those rumors you had heard before, about there being some kind of strange creature in these woods.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
…But those rumors, everyone had said the creature was massive and this? …This one wasn’t massive at all, you didn’t understand but you didn’t have much time to focus as you looked up to the sky, it’d be sun down soon, not soon enough to where you were worried about getting back before dark but the sun was on its way, making its descent so you looked over to Pipi “...Okay, so… You can’t walk can you…?”
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi shook his head sadly and looked down to which you sighed at, a look of sympathy on your face as you leaned closer and gently patted his head “Hey… It’s okay, just… Here, let me pick you up, I uh, you can’t ride on my back because of my backpack so…” You placed said backpack onto your back so you wouldn’t forget it in the long run.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
And then you gently placed your arms underneath him, scooping Pipi up as carefully as you could you then stood up and turned around “Alright lil guy… I’ll take you back to my campsite, you can… Stay with me until these wounds heal up, you still seem kinda young so I wonder… I wonder if your mama or papa is looking for you”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
You then shuddered, you really hoped they didn’t find you right now, not with their baby in your arms because you’d surely get torn to pieces… Pipi chirped loudly and happily as he nuzzled into you, you smiled at this “...You know, you’re really cute… I dunno how or why someone could have ever hurt you” Pipi looked down sadly at that “...P-Pi… Pi…” You frowned, you already felt so protective over this little one.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
“...Well don’t you worry Pipi… Nobody’s going to hurt you again, I’ll make sure of it, you can bet on that one” Pipi looked up at you and you swore you saw him smiling back at you, he chirped even louder at that and nuzzled into you, even yawning slightly “...Just try and rest up while I get us back to camp, okay lil buddy?”
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
He nodded and his eyes slowly closed and you began your walk back, he was a little heavy and coupled in with the weight of the backpack you were carrying made it a bit difficult but you could manage, you thought about last night as you began walking back to camp, thinking about that gunshot and then hearing that wailing cry, you looked down to Pipi who was sleeping in your arms and you swore you heard a faint snoring sound.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
…Poor thing, who could be so cruel to such a cute creature? …Sure, you had no idea what he was exactly but he was adorable! And he didn’t seem to mean any harm, sure he did eat your money just a few moments ago which you really didn’t like still but either way, he seemed content now, he wasn’t in as MUCH pain thanks to you tending to his wounds and he seemed full so you’d let it be this time around.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eventually you made it back to campsite, actually just by sundown thankfully, you quickly walked over and gently set Pipi down in the tent who started to stir, stretching out his legs carefully, he yawned and looked at you before looking at the thing over him.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi looked somewhat nervous by this new thing but you smiled “It’s my tent, it’s where I sleep at night… It uh, helps me from predators I guess in a way… Did you have a nice nap?” Pipi nodded at that, chirping happily again to which you smiled at “Well I’m glad… It’s already sundown so, I gotta make myself some food, you just stay here in the tent okay…? It’ll be safer that way”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi nodded and then you placed your backpack down in the tent, getting out some leftovers and then walking over to the campfire, you began heating up your food, after that was done you got to chowing away and looking at the sunset, just watching it go down so slowly, it was beautiful like always.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
After finishing up your food, you placed the pot away again and then headed back into the tent. Inside the tent Pipi was just looking around, not really moving because that bullet wound still hurt like hell but he was so curious, he wanted to explore around so badly… You could tell as you sighed “...Don’t worry little one, once that wound heals you’ll be able to walk around again I’m sure”
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi nodded, looking at you and you noticed the sad look on his face so you scooted closer to him, gently placing a palm on his cheek “Pipi…? What’s wrong?” Pipi made some sad sounding noises, he almost sounded… Like he was missing something …Or someone and then it clicked, you looked at him, feeling heartbroken for the little guy “...Oh sweetheart…”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
“...You miss your parents don’t you…?” Pipi nodded sadly “Pi…” You leaned down and gave him a kiss on his forehead “...Listen, I promise, when your wound fully heals, I’ll help you find your parents” Pipi then suddenly looked nervous, eyes wide as he shook his head “Pi! Pi! Pi pi pi pi!!!” He cried to which you looked confused at “You… Don’t want me to help you find them?”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi huffed, looking frustrated as you clearly weren’t getting what he was trying to say and then you thought about it “...Do they not like humans…? Is that it…?” Pipi nodded fast at that before opening his mouth, pointing at you then into his mouth and then he chomped down, he looked very nervous and you admittedly got a chill down your spine “O-Oh… I… I see…” …You were a bit nervous now, what if his parents came looking for him and found you with their baby?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
…You shuddered, trying not to dwell on that thought “...W-Well, still… I’ll let you stay here until your wound heals up so no predators get you… And then you can go find your parents, b-because uh, heh… If I’m being honest with you, I REALLY don’t wanna get eaten”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi nodded sadly and nuzzled into you, it seems he’s taken quite a liking to you but you knew his parents definitely wouldn’t feel the same if you encountered them, and you wouldn’t deny you’d hate to see the little guy go, you had already felt so bonded with him as well but even then you sighed, suddenly Pipi seemed to get startled by something to which you quickly looked over at.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your backpack had fallen over and your camera had fallen out, you noticed Pipi’s fur standing straight out, almost like hackles on a dog and he was even growling a little, you chuckled at that, petting his head “...That’s just my camera sweetheart, it’s not going to hurt you…” You reached over and picked it up and brought it closer to which Pipi growled even louder at before looking at you then looking at the camera and sniffing it, you then turned it on and turned it around, smiling at it “I got a new lil buddy it seems” You then turned it around to Pipi who looked confused before leaning somewhat closer, he was sniffing at the camera and way too close to the lens that it probably looked silly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“This uh, camping trip has definitely… Gotten a bit more interesting, I’ll say that” You chuckled, somewhat pulling the camera back “Go ahead, wave hi to the camera, Pipi” The creature blinked, looking back to you before looking back to the camera, he used his other arm to wave into the camera
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Pi!” He exclaimed to which you laughed at and then turned the camera back around “...He’ll be staying with me, until his wounds heal up and then I’ll send him off to go find his parents” And then you said goodbye to the camera, until next time and you told Pipi to do the same to which he happily chirped into the camera and then you shut it off.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After that, the two of you settled down for the night, you slept right next to Pipi, a hand gently placed over him and he snuggled up very close to you, his fur would keep you extra warm so that was a plus, the night was pretty peaceful …Until… You were awoken by Pipi making some distressed sounds, you quickly shot up and looked around before looking down to him.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
He wasn’t hurting but he was pointing outside the tent and that’s when you noticed, hearing some rustling sounds in the distance, you quickly shushed him “Sh sh sh shhh… Pipi… Be quiet, don’t make a sound, and don’t… Please don’t poke your head outta this tent unless I tell you it’s okay, do you understand?” Pipi nodded and quickly quieted down, placing a hand over his mouth.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You quickly grabbed some of that bear spray you had with you and slowly began crawling out of the tent, you poked your head out, looking around and then you saw a light in the distance, you slowly climbed out of the tent before zipping it back up a little ways and then you stood in front of where the firepit stood and watched as the light got closer, you saw them, two hunters and you had to hold back a glare, they put their arms in the air, waving to signal they seemed to mean no harm so you put on a friendly smile, waving back, still keeping the bear spray close to you just in case they tried any funny business.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Hey! We don’t mean any harm, we come in peace hahaha!” One of the hunters spoke up as they drew closer, they did stop by one of the little benches so they didn’t get too close to you thankfully “Pretty late at night to uh, be hunting, isn’t it?” They laughed at that “Oh yeah, we figured we’d try and get one more target in before heading on back… That’s all” You nodded, you didn’t wanna risk being rude to them, you just wanted to keep it short and to the point so they’d leave “And what are you doing out here if we may ask?” You somewhat laughed “Oh, you know, just camping out, seeing all the sights, filming and foraging” They nodded at that, one of the hunters speaking up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Sounds like a mighty fun time, well uh, we don’t want to take up too much of your time, seeing how late it is so you know so we’ll cut to the chase, you might think we’re crazy but, you ain’t seen no lil critter run by here that’s got white fur all over, squinty lil eyes, and just… Well, it don’t look like no normal wild animal, it might have a bullet wound too”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
They laughed at that, it took every fiber of your being not to spray this bear spray in their eyes right now but you took a deep breath and shook your head “No, I haven’t seen nothing like that but I hope you find what you're looking for…” …You really didn’t, meanwhile Pipi just couldn’t help it, he crept a bit closer and unzipped the tent just enough to where he could see, he was worried about you after all!
. . .
Pipi’s eyes widened as he saw those very two hunters that had shot him, they had just began to walk away when he made a bit of a startled noise sheerly by accident then quickly hid himself back in the tent, this caused you to look over to the tent and the hunters to stop and also look over, they got a much more serious look in their eyes at that as they looked back at you, turning back around and then pointing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
“...Did that noise just come from your tent?” You laughed albeit a bit nervously “Oh probably my camera, the damned thing gets… Loud when the battery’s low, I must’ve left it on” You walked over to the tent and pretended to look inside momentarily before turning back around, not moving away from the tent however.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“Yep, the stupid camera is still on, battery’s gettin’ low so I’ll have to change that” …There was a tense aura in the air for the both of you now, the hunters turning fully toward you, their guns weren’t out but still “...And you’re sure you haven’t seen no lil critter?” They asked, you could feel the accusatory tone and this made your eyes narrow
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
“...Are you calling me a liar? Are you accusing me of something?” The hunters were quick to put their hands up in defense “Easy, easy…! We ain’t accusing you of nothin’! No need to get so hostile, we’re just looking for our target …If you’re sure that was the camera that went off, then uh, why don’t you open up that lil tent of yours and show us and we’ll be on our way”
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Your hand gripped the bear spray tightly “...Like HELL I’m going to open up my tent and show two strangers any of my personal belongings, you two are mighty bold you know, because I am just one instance away of calling the rangers on your sorry asses, now I’m only going to ask you  o n c e to please leave my campsite” The hunters both laughed and took a step closer
--------------------------------------------------------------------
“My my, aren’t you just a feisty little thing, we just wanna make sure that beast ain’t in your tent!” You stood your ground, not backing down at all “There isn’t any sort of ‘beast’ in my tent, I won’t ask you two again to leave or else I’m calling the rangers” The hunters both looked toward each other before nodding, one of them got a bit too close to you and you immediately held up the bear spray, spraying it in his eyes which caused him to scream and collapse to the ground.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The hunter was rubbing furiously at his eyes, screaming and yelling profanities at you and then of course you then heard the sounds of a gun and looked over to the other hunter “Drop that damn bear spray” When you refused he pointed it right at you “NOW” You relented and dropped the bear spray, holding your hands up “...Now you just move away from that there tent and let me check it out, you’re hiding that thing from us, I know it! You’re hiding what we’ve rightfully hunted!” You sneered at the hunter, staying put in front of the tent
----------------------------------------------------------------
“You know, you aren’t hunters, I know your type, you're more like… Poachers if anything, but I am NOT moving from this tent…” The hunter then sneered at you “...If you don’t I’ll put a bullet through you right now” You somewhat faltered at that, meanwhile inside the tent Pipi was hearing everything and he felt terrified.
------------------------------------------------------------
But even then you shook your head “...I’m not going to let you hurt him, I don’t know who you think you are, coming to MY campsite, threatening me, threatening an innocent creature, but I am NOT going to let you hurt him or take him” The hunter laughed and began stepping closer “You aren’t in a position to really protect anyone, yourself or that damned monster you got hiding in your tent, the thing ain’t natural! It needs to be put down!” He yelled at you.
----------------------------------------------------------
“And I’m gonna put it down, even if it means I gotta put YOU down first!” And then before anything could escalate, you heard the loudest cry from inside the tent, it caused you and the hunters to cover your ears, it was Pipi and he practically screeched as loudly as he could physically manage more than like. 
----------------------------------------------------------
The hunter couldn’t do anything because anytime he tried to take his hands away from his ears it just caused him pain, he had even dropped his gun but even you couldn’t pick it up, and then all fell silent just like that, the entire forest fell silent but that didn’t stop the hunter from picking his gun back up and shoving you out of the way, pointing a gun at your tent.
--------------------------------------------------------
“That’s it! You fucking little freak!” The hunter screamed, eyeing it up with the shadow he had seen in the tent, your eyes widened as you screamed out “NO!” You rushed over and grabbed his gun, causing him to shoot up into the air to which he pushed you down to the ground for but before anything else could happen a loud roar sounded off in the distance, this caused you and the hunter’s eyes to widen.
----------------------------------------------------------
The other one was still down on the ground, not able to see a thing, he was still trying to rub his eyes free of the bear spray but he definitely stiffened up upon hearing the roar, but just then, loud footsteps sounded off, very loud, gigantic even… They were making the ground shake which caused the hunter to stumble and drop his gun, the sounds only got louder and the ground to shake even more the closer it got, it almost felt like a damned earthquake.
-----------------------------------------------------------
It didn’t take long for you to see trees falling in the distance, almost like they were being shoved over, another furious roar echoing throughout the forest, the hunter admittedly looked terrified “W-What the fuck is that…?!” And then eventually the hunter got what he wanted, to see what the fuck that was, or at least… The two of you saw the shadow standing amongst the trees, this thing was massive, it had to be thirty foot tall if not bigger.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The first thing you heard since the thunderous footsteps had stopped was the sounds of loud breathing echoing in the forest before its eyes opened, pink and yellow spotlights illuminating the forest as it stared straight ahead, that was until Pipi cried out again and that’s when its head snapped down, the spotlights lighting the three of you up, the hunter’s eyes widened “...H-Holy shit…” Your eyes were wide too, but the other hunter couldn’t see a thing.
--------------------------------------------------------------
But he definitely heard all that and he tried standing up even though he couldn’t see anything, but then all went completely silent again, the silence was deafening, you couldn’t even hear the sounds of the forest, there was nothing …Until… The beast roared, the loudest roar of all, the winds gusting all three of you over, you fell over with an oof as did the other hunters but unlike you, the hunters quickly scrambled to their feet, getting up and running as fast as they could physically manage.
--------------------------------------------------------------
But that didn’t seem to stop the monster as it growled, slowly walking after them, it seemed to know it could easily just walk and catch up with them no matter how fast it ran, you watched on, eyes widened at what you saw, no… The rumors weren’t about Pipi that’s for damn sure, it was about WHATEVER the hell that thing was! …And then it hit you, that… That must’ve been Pipi’s mom or dad!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Pipi’s cries must’ve alerted it! And then you heard the screams of both hunters but you didn’t get to see what happened, after all its back was turned to you, nor did you really want to see them meet their demise but you did take notice of the multi-colored wings on the creature’s back.
---------------------------------------------------------------
You heard some kind of crunching sound coming from the creature which you could honestly put two and two together in that moment of what had become of those hunters, not that you truly felt bad, it’s what they deserved, it was karma… After that, the creature turned back around, eyes quickly fixating on you who was on the ground and you felt your breath hitch in your throat as the spotlights shone upon you.
---------------------------------------------------------------
You were enveloped in a pink and yellow glow and you were honestly terrified, you were too scared to even try running but you did back up when the creature began walking slowly toward you, you felt tears began pricking your eyes, oh this DEFINITELY wasn’t how your camping trip was supposed to go!
-------------------------------------------------------------
The creature continued walking toward you, even when it was just walking, its footsteps shook the ground beneath you and then it reached down, a clawed hand slowly engulfing you which immediately caused you to panic and struggle “N-NO NO! W-Wait please!” You cried out, trying to get out of its iron-like grasp it had on you but it was no use, it held you tightly in its hand and brought you close to its face, you continued to struggle.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Tears pouring down your face as you stared up at the creature, its nose was long and pointy much like Pipi’s, it had much softer fur, not as frazzled looking, you did notice the weirdly robotic looking part, it looked like the creature had some sort of armor on and you saw some sort of weird blue heart in its chest piece, it had eyes and razor sharp teeth and it was peering up at you.
---------------------------------------------------------------
You didn’t have time to fully look over the creature as it slowly opened its mouth, revealing two sets of razor sharp fangs and a long black tongue that dripped some sort of weird ink-like substance. You cried out as it began lifting you up to its mouth “W-Wait! No stop! P-Please don’t…! Don’t eat me…! I-I’m not a hunter like th-them I-I’m not even associated with them…!” You cried out, putting your arms in front of you, shielding yourself but it’s not like it’d do you any good…
---------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile Pipi heard your cries from inside the tent, his eyes widening as he knew exactly what was happening, he quickly leapt out of the tent despite it heavily agitating his wound and he practically screamed up to the creature “PI! PI PI PI PI!” He screamed over and over, flailing one of his arms that he could as fast as he physically could which caused the giant monster to stop immediately and look down, its eyes widening but it looked absolutely relieved rather than angry now.
---------------------------------------------------------------
It still kept you in one hand but used its other one to gently scoop up Pipi, there was a difference in how it was holding you compared to the other, you had squeezed your eyes shut just ready for the worst but all you heard was purring at first… The creature rubbing gently against Pipi who rubbed back somewhat but then winced in pain.
---------------------------------------------------------------
You were still absolutely terrified not daring to open your eyes just yet because you really didn’t want to open your eyes only to find an open mouth. Pipi continued to chatter with the creature, he was frantically pointing at you, the creature tilted its head as it watched Pipi, a bit confused before Pipis huffed and pointed at you and then at his mouth and then shook his head, puffing his fur out rather aggressively.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The creature looked taken aback to see Pipi’s glare but then noticed the wound, it leaned down, getting a closer look to which Pipi pointed over to you and then back to the bandage which the creature sniffed at for a moment before looking back at you, you were still trembling but you hadn’t felt yourself get lifted up or even moved in awhile so you slowly opened your eyes.
--------------------------------------------------------------
You looked back to the creature and oh man was it close, too close… You could hear it sniffing at you, in fact you could feel your hair moving around and then it exhaled, it felt like a strong gust of wind, if the creature hadn’t been holding you securely, you were sure you would’ve been blown away and it also made you blink your eyes rapidly before rubbing at them and then it somewhat leaned back, finally that mouth and those teeth weren’t too close for comfort, the creature seemed to sigh, there was a long pause before it opened its mouth again, hot breath ghosting over you but it didn’t seem to have any interest in eating you now at least…
-----------------------------------------------------------
“Y o u…” Your eyes widened and your head immediately snapped up to meet the creature’s gaze, you were in complete shock and your mouth fell agape, did… Did it just… “Y o u… Saved…” And then there was a pause, the creature didn’t seem like it had spoke in a l o n g time, more than likely years as its voice was raspy “S a v e d… Him…?” The creature then just held up Pipi who chirped loudly, looking at you with a smile but you were just in complete awe and then you realized the other had asked you a question so you quickly nodded and answered it “O-Oh yeah… I-I found him… O-Out in the clearing… He- He was hurt and so… I helped h-him, and then the hunters came…” The creature snarled which made you shiver.
---------------------------------------------------------
But you could tell the snarl wasn’t directed at you, it seemed angry at the mention of hunters, nostrils flaring before it huffed “I… I didn’t want him hurt or killed, I… I protected him, even when they pointed a gun at me” This made the creature tilt its head, you could see the anger written in its face “...Pointing… G u n s… At… T-T h e i r Own k i n d…” The creature paused before growling lowly, the feathery wings puffing out.
------------------------------------------------------------
“...Tch, c r u e l…” It sounded like it was in pain so it shortened its sentences down, clearing its throat but you were just, in complete awe, you had no idea the creature could actually talk! “...W-Wait… So… I-I just have two questions… If you don’t mind answering o-of course, I-I don’t want you to hurt yourself” The other looked taken aback by that statement.
-------------------------------------------------------------
You noticed instead of speaking, it looked down at you almost expectantly “H-How come… Pipi… C-Can’t uh, can’t talk like you…?” The creature tilted its head “...Pi…Pi…?” You pointed over to the other who seemed absolutely happy right now and relieved, it seemed to pause for a moment “...Pipi…” It repeated once and only once, it seemed to like that well enough, in fact it somewhat grinned at that before it seemed to think about your question and began chuckling.
---------------------------------------------------------------
“...Just… A… B a b y” …Well that should’ve been more than obvious but you continued on “...Do you have a name…?” You asked and the creature hummed at this, he seemed to give it thought before sighing “...Sneo…” You blinked in surprise “...Sn… Sneo…?” The creature then looked down at you quizzically and for a moment you were worried you stepped over the line, you quickly corrected “I-I don’t mean th-that it’s a weird name…! Just… N-Not what I expected …Then again I-I didn’t expect any of this” The creature nodded at that before finally he cupped both of his hands together, finally letting you free from the harsh grasp.
------------------------------------------------------------
You felt so much relief at that and then you walked over to Pipi and gently hugged him, being mindful of his wound “Oh Pipi… I’m so glad you’re alright… Those hunters, ugh, I didn’t want them hurting you again” Pipi chirped happily at this and nuzzled into the hug, even beginning to purr a little which Sneo looked surprised and excited at, he had a smile on his face and he purred as well, leaning closer to the both of you, nuzzling you to which Pipi looked up at him.
----------------------------------------------------------
“Pi pi pi pi…?” He seemed to question to which Sneo leaned back and chuckled at, he glanced over at you momentarily before nodding his head and then Pipi gasped and began cheering, you were a bit confused but it must’ve been a good thing, whatever just happened and then you looked at Pipi before looking back at Sneo “...O-Okay, last question, I-I swear… …When Pipi grows up… Will he look like you?”
----------------------------------------------------------
Sneo didn’t speak this time but nodded to which Pipi perked up at “Pi!” He seemed confident all of a sudden, grinning even which revealed some tiny sharp teeth and you chuckled “Wow… You’re gonna be all big and scary one day, so you can ward off any more hunters that try to hurt you huh? …E-Erm I-I mean scary in like, a good way of course” You looked over to Sneo who seemed amused more than anything right now and then he lowered you down to his chest.
---------------------------------------------------------
You looked confused but Pipi didn’t, in fact his tail was wagging in excitement and then you noticed, the armor, where that weird heart thing was in, there was a piece of glass that suddenly slid open and then before you knew it, you were plopped down inside and then you helped Sneo get Pipi in there safely without agitating the wound anymore and then.
----------------------------------------------------------
Sneo leaned his head down, making sure neither of you got hurt as the glass slid back into place, it was kind of like one of those sliding doors if you were being honest and then you noticed the heart actually moved around, first it went over to Pipi and gave him some gentle nose nuzzles who nuzzled back and then it focused its attention on you and okay, yeah that was unsettling and weird, just what WAS Sneo supposed to be? He seemed organic and then strangely... Not organic.
----------------------------------------------------------
The heart then slowly made its way to you, its movements almost snake-like as it opened its mouth, some yellow drool leaked out and for a moment you were scared as you scooted away, you noticed its eyes had black squiggles, swirling around inside them and as if Sneo could sense what was about to happen which, you don’t know why he wouldn’t be able to, it's HIS heart, a sudden growl echoed and you heard a muffled
-----------------------------------------------------------
“D o n ‘ t…” A warning in which the heart immediately backed off, looking almost scared, did the thing have a mind of its own or something, you didn’t really know, you didn’t understand Sneo’s anatomy if you were being honest with yourself but you leaned closer and gently pet the heart and it looked surprised at you before its smile widened, it seemed content with you now and even gave you a nuzzle, an apology of sorts you figured.
-------------------------------------------------------------
And you smiled back at it before looking over to Pipi, scooting closer to him and holding him close, you noticed the area began to shift and you looked down, you could see the ground but you weren’t falling, it seemed Sneo had gotten down on all fours all of a sudden, you weren’t sure why until you saw him gathering your things, he even gathered the entire tent up and then he stood up once more, well albeit he stood up very slowly as to make sure Pipi wasn’t jostled around with that wound.
--------------------------------------------------------------
You slid back onto a more stable surface but even with the glass you had honestly felt like you and Pipi wouldn’t break it, you probably weighed NOTHING compared to Sneo, the glass opened again and he placed the tent inside it, there was plenty enough room for the both of you, the heart, and even the tent.
--------------------------------------------------------------
And then finally Sneo began walking, you saw the trees go past, just watching out the window, letting Pipi sleep somewhat on top of you, he was purring and nuzzling into you and you had an arm over him and then you heard Sneo’s muffled voice “Get… Some rest… Both of you, we’ll be home soon enough…” …Home? Well you did sorta wonder just what kind of ‘home’ Pipi and Sneo lived in, what did he mean by ‘home’ exactly? ...You should probably question further into that as you also had a home to go back to but you were far too tired to care.
-------------------------------------------------------------
You yawned, you were pretty tired, today was extremely eventful and stressful, but you would be lying if you said this hadn’t been exciting, so those rumors were true! The only thing about it is, Sneo wasn’t as bad as everyone described him, he was just protecting his babies, that’s all...
-------------------------------------------------------------
Sure, okay, yeah, you were terrified he was going to eat you earlier but once he saw you as no threat, once Pipi had shown him that you meant them no harm, that changed entirely, and also you were very happy to meet Pipi today, you wondered if there’d be more like Pipi when you got back to Sneo’s home, you were excited to meet the rest of them if he had any siblings, you smiled and laid down fully, the heart had closed its eyes as well, you sighed, content for the night, you damn sure weren’t worried about other predators or hunters now.
-------------------------------------------------------------
“...Goodnight Pipi…” You heard a soft chirp, it sounded like Pipi was already dozing off, and then you wished Sneo a goodnight, you were unsure if he could hear you in here but you still tried anyways and you were also still questioning if this was real or not so you decided to test, you reached over and pinched yourself, you winced and okay, that hurt, a lot actually, so this was definitely not a dream or anything....
------------------------------------------------------------
And in a weird sort of way, you were pretty happy it wasn’t a dream actually, you then finally closed your eyes, you’d be safe in here, you and Pipi both, and you were strangely enough okay with all this, you heard Sneo’s soft purring and even felt it rumbling around you and then the last thing you heard before finally falling asleep was a muffled “...Goodnight…”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*clasps hands together* Okay okay!!! So uh before I forget to talk about it, there was supposed to be a full scene of Sneo actually taking you back to his home and then it goes from there but had I tried to include all of what I had planned, I’d have to make this into a chaptered story and I probably won’t be doing that anytime soon.
So, Sneo would take you back to his home and y’all would all get some more bonding time, you’d meet some of Pipi’s siblings and then eventually you’d ask about those large blue eggs to which Sneo would grin at, as if he had been waiting for you to ask and then he’d say ‘Pipis’ ...and then you’d realize just HOW unclever of a name you gave ‘Pipi’ but don’t worry, he loves it and finds it amusing.
And Pipi likes it too! Pipi is honored to have an actual name even if its just one letter shortened from the names of the eggs so its fine and then it’d go from there, I don’t know what else I’d have truly planned but I knew I had that scene, I just cut it down so I could keep this as a one shot.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Also I fucking love Pipi and I regret creating this lil lad bgfhjdklfgjdsd I’ve grown attached to him way too much, im already thinking about him fully grown as a Sneo, he’d be even taller than the og Sneo you see I know that for a fact lmao, but I’m getting too ahead of myself, anyways enjoy this uh somewhat cute story?

Like… there is this fun concept just in nature I think could be pretty fun and cute for an AU?
Like in the Amazon or so, there exists tarantulas, who have simbiotic relashonships with little frogs. The much larger tarantula, it protects the frog in its little den/ cave and even scent marks it so it recognizes ‘this is their frog buddy don’t eat that one’. The frog eats the little things that the tarantula can’t eat, like ants or other small insects that could destroy or eat the tarantulas eggs, it’s a win win wholesome scenario bonding time!
Like I try to imagine how this could fit with your bois like, be it kinda an extension of the Frog and salamander (? It’s been forever I don’t remember) AU from ages ago with the new lads, maybe Eclipse as the big tarantula looking out for the eggs that could be Glitch, Lunar and maybe even Astel? We haven’t seen much of her in a while. But Lunar and Glitch are also a duo, tho it makes less sense maybe they look after the eggs that would be Sun and Moon? Idk it’s just so many possibilities with this, both much soft and possibilities of miscommunication and hurt/ comfort then things presumably leads to noms
Like if this becomes an AU or not, if you’ve not simply heard of this before? Try and look pictures of this up, it won’t disappoint
I vaguely remembered talking about an au with this idea before where one of the boys was a spider and one was a frog and the frog decided he wanted a little friend too so nommed reader.

my friend, i give you a free pass to gush about any of your f/os <3
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO ANSWER THIS ASK. *FOUR* SEPERATE TIMES. BUT TUMBLR KEEPS GLITCHING OUT ON ME. THANKS FOR NOTHING TUMBLR 🥴🥴🥴 i love this very functional website
BUT!!!! SNOWY!!!!!! HI!!!!!!!!!
Tumblr media
thank you for the gush pass!!!!! my heart is full of LOVE right now so i will be gushing about my latest f/o... R.AYMAN!!!! PRAYING i don't slip up on filtering his name because if this shows up in the main tag i will actually cry
going under a readmore.... because i am shy...... AND BECAUSE THIS GOT WAY LONGER THAN I HAD INTENDED I AM SO SORRY
R.AYMAN. R.AYMAN R.AYMAN R.AYMAN.
Tumblr media
R.ayman...
as i've mentioned previously on this blog, i've known about this fella's existence for more or less 10 years - i was introduced to the franchise when origins first came out - but never actually took the opportunity to get into any of the games. WELL recently 1 + 2 + 3 + origins went on sale for one euro each and that was when i thought OK. I CAN'T KEEP DRAGGING IT OUT. I HAVE TO SEE WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.
AND OFCOURSE I IMMEDIATELY FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS GOOFBALL. i can't help it i see a character who is just So Sillay and i immediately fall for them. though some people may say that r.ayman doesn't HAVE much of a personality outside of being a #Sillyguy, if he's mostly just a generic hero character that you're supposed to draw your own interpretations for, then draw my own interpretations i WILL!
my idea of r.ayman's character is mostly based around r.ayman 3 and origins/legends (and their trailers) - he's a good guy, absolutely, don't get me wrong, but he's a bit cocky and snarky and doesn't really take himself too seriously. very College-Fratboy-core. boys will be boys. y'know the type. that's my ideal r.ayman :3c
BUT!!! i love all different kinds of ways people choose to interpret his character!!! no matter what his personality is, i love him all the same!!!! it's very fun to have a character that can be projected so much onto by so many different people :D some people like to make him much more of a nice and helpful guy, others like him a bit more snarky and rude LOL one thing they all have in common is that they are EXTREMELY LOVABLE!!!!!
Tumblr media
JUST LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL BOY. HOW IS HE *NOT* LOVABLE!!!!!
i've been streaming r.ayman 3 to my friends because they want to see my reactions to some things, and they think i'm literally insane because sometimes i will just stop moving and stand still for a good 20 seconds because i love his idle animations so much LOL IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS... RUNNING HIS HAND THROUGH HIS HAIR... SCRATCHING THE BACK OF HIS HEAD... CHECKING HIMSELF OUT LMAO there's this one specific animation he'll do if you've stood still for long enough, where he'll grab his torso and start bouncing it around like a basketball, my friend thinks it is absolutely disgusting meanwhile i'm just like LOOK AT HIM GO HE'S SO TALENTED!!!!! HE IS BALLIN!!!!!!! i love this sporty lad
Tumblr media
another trait of his that i LOVE is how SLEEPY he is..... he's napping at the beginning of almost every game it is very cute...... i want to nap with him... lazy cuddles....... aw............ i've made this exact joke with me and wander before but i am recycling it: snork mimimimimi bf x honk shoo honk shoo bf

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh wow. You never expected to see the familiar rooster haired person, especially bending down at a forty five degree angle to get a better view of the cakes displayed in your shop.
You just came back from picking up some new tea leaves delivered by your mom to try the flavours, while your co-woker was left to handle the shop when you were away.
Now, here you stood in front of your own shop, debating if you should enter or not after noticing a past companion
You gulped a little, touching the knob of the door to twist it open but you immediately retreated your hand away when the metal touched your skin, causing a shiver to run down your spine. Your palm felt sweaty and cold indicating you were getting nervous. Thank God, iwaizumi chose to put glass as the exterior or you can't even imagine how you would have reacted without preparing yourself to meet a certain someone.
You grabbed the knob again twisting it this time as you took a deep breath opening the door. You were mature now, way past your university years. You had to face him some day but you were hoping the some day wasn't any time soon. Maybe after you died or sumn should have been okay.
Calming your nerves, you told yourself that forgetting the hours of crying and snorting on your poor pillow would be best, for now atleast.
The ringing sound once someone opens the door echoed through the cute cafe as you stepped your foot inside, causing kuroo's head to rise up.
He didn't look back though, he just stood up fixing his suit a little because if he stayed in that position in his tight pants, he was quite sure those pants were putting his ass on a show. He smiled at the young college lad behind the counter saying he would like to order a large red velvet cake which should be packed nicely. He liked the smell of the store and the calming feeling it radiates, it reminds him of someone. “oh and please make it fast- my girlfriend is kind of impatient" he chuckles, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.
Once you hear his gruffy voice and his signature cologne engulfing your nose, the same one he used to put on too much that you had to scold him about it. You stopped on your track, hands clentching your bags tightly. Memories swaying through your head. You remember the blushes, the jokes, the flirty remarks, days spent sitting on his roof while he told you every interesting facts about stars he knew.
You closed your eyes putting a small smile on your face, get a grip y/n. You chanted the slogan in your mind before opening your mouth to call out his name that you screamed so many times in so many different ways, but to your luck of course your obedient staff interupted, the guy was more than happy to let the only customer at this late in the hour know of your existent. "ah- Mrs. Oikawa you are back"
The engines of kuroo's head twisted and turned at the mention of the surname, he didn't know oikawa tooru from the Argentina team had a wife. Was this guy talking about the same oikawa he knew?
The one he met during some tournaments and parties a few times, he remembers making small talks once or twice with him, though— he wouldn't call themselves friends but but one thing he knew about oikawa was that he had tons and tons of fangirls, he knew just by seeing the bunch of girls waiting for him to get out of the five star restraurents that they both attended for some formal parties so they can take a picture with him.
He has still the habit of not minding his own business back from his highschool days. So, curious to know who was the wife of infamous oikawa tooru and why he didn't hear a gossip about it before. Kuroo snaped his head back to met a glossy, familiar pair of e/c eyes.
The say curiosity kills the cat, but in this case his world falls apart when he sees you. He choked, feeling all the air get suck out of him. Locking eyes with the same e/c orbs he adored so much, the same ones that used to sparkle when you looked at him.
"y/n" a really small mumble, more like a whisper which can be barely heard. But that small mumble takes you back to the days where he would call your name over and over again from across the library, for letting you know about something new he found out about the two married teachers hooking up with each other. Though the actions mostly ended up for the both of you to getting kicked out of there and then him rumbling about how the old librarian lady was so insensitive and rude when it was obviously his fault you both were banned from there.
"tet-" you stopped yourself immediately, shaking your head to convince yourself that you shouldn't call him that. "kuroo" you mumbled a little louder than him, a soft smile forming on your lips as your eyes wrinkled.
Oh fuck. That's what he thinks. Geez after all those years how could you still smile at him like that. The contagious smiles that drives him crazy so so much. At this point he even forgets you were married or he was about to propose his girlfriend tonight. All in his mind at that moment was you.
You have gotten more beautiful, hair longer and face a lot more matured. You still had those soft lips he remembered and he can say you have gained a little weight which just makes you more beautiful in his eyes. He wants to ask you a lot of questions. He wants to say a lot of things. He missed you like a mad man.
He opens his mouth to say he missed you, he missed your hands cupping his face, he missed your touch, your soft snores against his neck. The way both of you would plan about the future.
“how have you been?”
You fiddled your fingers in your pocket, swallowing the lump in your throat. “I have been doing good” you closed your eyes smiling brightly at him just like you used to. Placing the bags on the table beside you, you shifted your gaze from kuroo. He is a lot more muscular now than he was in college, but with the same messy hair styled with lots of jel.
“haru take this bag and keep it in the kitchen please” you asked to him, looking back at kuroo who was still busy taking in your appearance. “it's rude to stare at someone” you chuckled, patting his arms as you moved past him. “is it my fault you grew more gorgeous now?" he spat back, feeling the angsty feeling in his heart decrease a little. Not so sure where this confidence to speak with you is coming from.
“aah-you still flirt with taken women?” you replied, tying your hair into a bun, walking behind the counter. The way you moved was more elegant than he remembers.
You hit a spot in his heart reminding you were taken but so was he. He reminds himself that you both weren't anymore teenagers and adults with real life responsibility.
Huffing you wrapped the pastel blue coloured apron around your waist, eyes avoiding his face “is it kizumi?” you arched a brow, eyes on your working hands. Taking the piece of cardboard and a red ribbon which matched the cake. He turned around, tightening his lips wondering how is gonna tell you 'it is her'.
The one girl who always made you feel inferior and insecure. Nights he spent reminding you she was just a friend, now he is fidgeting how to tell your guess was right. Back then he truly meant she was just a friend.
As long as you could remember you always disliked her, she was always kind and cheerful and a little too bright for you. Though she never directly tried hitting on tetsu but you knew by the subtle touches and the lingering gaze she was into him.
But you were past that stage, even though you felt a little defeated by her but you have your own special person now, the person who makes the world seem like a bearable place everyday little by little. You chuckled to cut the thick tension in the air
“you should go and sit upstairs till' the cake is prepared” changing the subject, your hands motioned to the cute stair inside the cafe leading up to a new set of area with private chairs and tables for people who liked privacy. You didn't want kuroo to stand infront of you when you were trying to ignore his presence.
“ah-” he paused looking at the direction of your hands. The wooden stair case with black tinted glass at the end to cover the upstairs view. Several small flowers wrapped around the railing and small lamps decorated along the way. He hesitantly opened his mouth, he wanted to talk with you and know every thing that he wanted to ask you after the day you left. This night could end like this, he could just sit idly and let the burning curiosity being ignored and move on with his life, propose the girl like he planned and try to keep you off mind. Try to not find you in the girl he is with like he did for years.
But he was determined today, he was going to get answers why you left and how sorry he was for not meeting you for the last time you asked for. No matter what or who—
“Mommyy” a voice ringed through the cafe followed by soft giggles and a chuckling of a adult. A small pair of legs dashed past kuroo towards you. Two hands wrapping around your legs with a beaming smile stretched acrossed a chubby face, giving you a long hug. You looked a little exasperated and shocked by the sudden attack but a small smile formed on your lips looking at the tiny boy.
“sorry to disturb your working hours honey” a breathy, hoarse voice behind kuroo spoke in a teasing tone followed with few snickers "but our dear son was nagging why is his mommy so late” by the tone of the argentina's player, it was evident that it was his idea to sneak up in your working hours.
Walking playfully to the back of the counter, he pecked your lips lovingly, parting before giving you a eye closed smile. He didn't notice who the other male was standing in the cafe, honestly he could care any less and especially since oikawa was a man for showing some public display affection. But when he noticed the flickering worry over your eyes when you looked past him he snapped his back to meet a pair of gawking cat-like eyes.
It wasn't oikawa's affection which drained all kuroo's blood off his body neither was it because you have a loving family now, no— it was rather because of the small kid who was smiling at the desserts in display with sparkling eyes.
Anybody could tell with two eyes that the small guy had the exact same messy long hair similar to the ex nekoma's captain. Anyone could tell that the golden brown cat like eyes were the exact copy paste of someone else's flickering fierce eyes. Because anybody could tell that the small guy looked nothing like oikawa and more like the stranger standing in the store.
“mommy can I have another late night dessert again? Please! please! please! I swear I will wash my teeth as many time you want today”
Ah— how could kuroo forget about the same way he used to nag for a late night dessert made by especially you. The one which he ate too much that he had to visit dentist every two to three months for. Seems like you have a lot of explaining to do.

Psst psst <3
Can I get an open air, Chardonnay with sausages? hehe 💞
And of course it's gonna be Scara~
Write Your Name
Scaramouche × GN!Reader
A/N: one idol Scara coming right up👀
Can you tell I got carried away?
Tumblr media
No one could quite explain his skyrocket to stardom
Scara was an idol of many talents, and clearly, his voice and grace were among the very best
He had an overwhelming stage presence, and once he took the floor, it was impossible to peel your eyes off him
It was probably all that which kept his fanbase growing despite his somewhat insufferable attitude
"A word to my fans? You're welcome. I exist. Rejoice."
The fan theories on his behaviour were endless, some tying his cockiness to a sort of past tragedy while others said it was a publicity stunt
You knew better though
Chancing upon your favourite idol at a bar, you clambered to get an autograph only to find him tipsy
He'd taken one look at you and scoffed
"What bet did you lose?"
You were indignant, but he'd sloppily draped his jacket over your shoulders with a satisfied "There."
Then he sat back down and returned to his drink
When you'd called to him again and introduced yourself he pat the seat beside him, choosing not to speak further
It was only couple more drinks before he was leaning on your shoulder, unable to hold himself up any longer
"I forgot to say...you're kind of cute."
He passed out almost immediately after complimenting you
If you didn't know any better you think he were allergic to being nice
Begrudgingly, you took him to your place since he showed no signs of waking up soon
You found he was, inconveniently, heavier than he looked
By some miracle, you did manage to get him indoors, and with your last bit of strength, dropped him on the couch, leaving a note to explain what happened that night for when he woke up along with a glass of water on the coffee table
As expected, he was gone when you woke up
What wasn't expected was the concert ticket in place of your note
Even more suspicious was the hastily scrawled location, date, and time beside it
It didn't coincide with the concert details, but they did line up
The biggest shock of all had to be the song he debuted in the concert
"Write Your Name" gave you a string sense of deja vu, and you could've sworn your heart skipped a beat when you heard your name in the song
High on the thrill of a possibility your idol remembered you, you went to the meeting point on a whim
And got cold feet as you stood outside the home-y cafe
Taking a deep breath, you turned on your heel, deciding against it and bumping into Scara again
"Haven't you heard of stranger danger? I can't believe you actually showed up."
He- didn't he invite you-
He tsked at you and walked right in as though he were coming home, stopping to hold the door for you
"Are you coming in?"
You hurried inside and soon found pictures of Scara hung on the walls, from articles of his debut and awards to framed pictures of him with a elderly couple
It seemed he'd gotten impatient as he took your hand and led you to a table further in the cafe, where a sweet looking old lady greeted you both warmly
When she left with your order, it clicked in your head that she was the lady in the picture
"That lady-"
"The woman who raised me. Anything else?"
You tried to ask him more questions about himself without prying too far into his personal life
Though it seemed there was no point for the little old lady brought not just delicious food, but also tales of Scara's youth
There was something endearing about Scara's groans of "Mama, please, not the time" while she was so eager to tell you more about how he'd sing in the shower as a young lad
"Quite the smooth dancer" she'd called him as he buried his face in his hands
There really was more to him than he showed on stage, and you were noting down every detail

Cozy winter
Summary: going to the market, being cheeky in the parking lot and a warm cuddly morning sprinkled with some funny-business
Warning: Cute banter, smut (NSFW), fluff
Word count: Around 5300 words!
Tumblr media
I want to open this with one of my favorite quotes ever, so if you allow me ;)
“Go into the arts. I’m not kidding. The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”  -Kurt Vonnegut 
“We need muffins.”
“We don’t NEED muffins, what we need are some fresh fruit and vegetables, ” Henry butts in. You frown and look up at him, “Oh whatever, Hen. You eat your greens, beans, potatoes and tomatoes, while I get fat by munching on some sweet, sweet, delicious chocolate muffins.”
 He sends you a smirk from across the aisle. It was always fun to do mundane things, like going to get coffee together or grocery shopping, when he was home from filming. The last year you went to university it was very hard to be away from him for such a long time, especially when you still lived in Europe. You would fly over to England once in a blue moon, when Henry was in London and your schedule would allow it. Other times your relationship existed out of phone and video calls. It was a rough period, if you have to be honest. But It made the two of you closer and your bond stronger. It’s true what they say, absence does make the heart grow fonder. 
You let Henry know you were going to get the ingredients for the muffins and start pushing the shopping cart in the direction of the baking supplies. As you walk back to the fresh produce section, you get distracted. So many colorful packaging was just screaming your name…
Tumblr media
“What the- lovey! I thought you were going to get your muffin ingredients,” Henry cackles and almost doubles over seeing the now full shopping cart.
It took you a second to answer, a bit too focused on his beautiful face and the smile lines that appeared when he laughed. You quickly try to defend yourself, so he doesn’t think you have no self-control, even though, you know your eyes were bigger than your stomach.
“No! I did get them, they’re just underneath the other bags,” you trail off, eyes drifting to the floor. You sigh, “I just saw this aisle with all the snacks. These magnificent snacks. And, Hen, I’ve never wanted anything more in my whole life! And, Hen-Henry! Henry, listen! Stop laughing at me! It was a moment of weakness! You can’t judge me! You don’t even know how they taste, I promise you, you will understand once you take a bite of everything!”
Henry wipes away a small tear at the corner of his eye and kisses the top of your head. You stroll around the aisles, trying to work through the rest of your grocery list, but suddenly you stop dead in your tracks.
“Hen,” you say, trying to get his attention. He gives you a hum in return, letting you know he heard you, “why on god’s green earth does my grocery list say ‘sex’?” You tilt your head up to his face, seeing a bashful grin. 
You shake your head, clicking your tongue disapprovingly, “it isn’t even on top of the list! You put your oatmeal protein shake before sex, fuck, you even put curry before sex, you really need to get your priorities straight!”
After getting some more stuff, like pak choi, steak, tofu and the ingredients for Henry’s beloved curry you always make him, you walk to the register. 
The petite Asian lady gives you a smile and takes a little peak at Henry, who was too busy looking at the various Chinese cough drops that are displayed in front of the counter. Her brows rise behind her thick glasses, “哇,大帅哥。你很幸运啊。” (Wow, big handsome man. You are very lucky, ah.) She says, turning back to you and winking. You can’t help but chuckle. Grinning you send her an ‘I know’-look.
Hearing your laugh, Henry looks over his shoulder with a questioning look. But you just smile and shake your head.
You two quickly get everything in the reusable shopping bags you brought with you. It was getting late and more people were getting off of work and wanted to do some last-minute grocery shopping. Henry takes both of the flower printed bags and the two of you walk to the car. It was getting colder, your breath turning into puffs of smoke. You look up at the sky glooming over you. They promised snow tonight. 
Seeing Henry load the bags in the trunk, his ass proudly sticking out in the air, you give it a pinch. You just couldn’t resist. It was just there, so you better make use of the situation. 
Feeling your hand touch his behind, Henry turns around, an unamused look on his face.
“Excuse me, miss. But that is mine,” he says, really playing up his posh accent.  “I sure hope you disinfected those filthy little paws of yours.” He cutely scrunches his nose, doing a once over and trying so hard to keep himself from smiling, but failing miserably. He turns back around and arranges the bags in the booth so they won’t tip over.
There is a moment of silence, just the noise from cars driving up and off the parking. From the corner his eye Henry sees the stare you give him but ignores it with a small smirk.
“You know,” you begin with a cheeky undertone, making him curious, “I bet I could kick your ass,” you grin, looking at him and trying to gauge his reaction. 
“What was that, doll?”
“You heard me, big lad!”
“Oh really?” He asks and looks at you, towering over you like a brick wall. His eyes glimmering with mischief. Yeah, no, this was NOT a good idea. 
You squirm a little and a small nervous giggle leaves your lips.
“Yes, I can. Watch m-AHHHH! HENRY!” You squeal as he lifts you and throws you over his shoulder, fully forgetting you are in public. “Let me down, you caveman!” You laugh, slapping his left ass cheek. But he ignores your plea and just slaps your ass in return. 
Wiggling a little, you challenge him, “Beat me up! Come on, do it!” 
He turns his head and playfully bites the exposed skin by your hip, making you shriek like a little kid. 
Henry lets out a loud belly laugh and puts you back on your feet. As soon as the tips of your Dr. Martens touch the pavement, you get pushed against the car. Trapping you between the icy cold black metal and his warm body. His arm goes around your waist and pulls you closer to his front.
“I love you.” The words are hushed but you hear them loud and clear, making a shiver go down your spine. The both of you look at each other, completely enamored and grinning like idiots. Noses and the apples of your cheeks rosy, bitten from the cold.
“I love you too,” you whisper back. His hand glides inside your coat and underneath the thick knitted jumper you finished to other day. He just needed to feel you. You lean up a little and gently push your lips to his, adoring the familiar warmth that fell over you whenever you’d kiss. Before you can come in for a second smooch, he frowns at you. 
“Thought you were going to beat my ass?” He mocks, trying to imitate your accent. 
Lightly tapping your finger against your chin, you pretend to be in thought. 
“Well, this is much more fun.”
“Hmm, agreed,” he grins, already eyeing your red swollen lips and tilting his head towards yours. 
Tumblr media
You hear heavy footsteps coming closer, the wooden floorboards slightly creaking under the weight. It was getting dark outside, the overhead lights in the kitchen casting a homey hue down on the oak countertops. Your ‘cooking playlist’ was filling the room with some gentle tunes. You also had a ‘dancing in the kitchen playlist’ but that one was mostly used in the mornings. You hum along to the melody when stirring in the stew you were preparing for the evening, rocking your hips side to side. The stew was softly bubbling away, spreading an amazing aroma around the house. 
The footsteps stop behind you. A moment later two big, sweater wrapped arms envelop around you, delicately caressing you. Henry lovingly pulls your loose braid to the side and places his head onto your shoulder, trying to get a peak at what was in front of you on the stove. 
“What smells so good in here?” Just then Henry’s stomach makes a loud grumbling noise from the mouthwatering smell going on in the kitchen, you chuckle. 
He had been gaming before this, you could hear the tiredness in his voice, it was a bit lower and more hoarse than normal. Whenever he was tired like this, he’d just turn into your big cuddly bear, you loved it. 
Dinner was almost done. You made one of the dishes your grandma used to make for you when you were younger. You won’t lie, it was pretty difficult at first to decipher the little recipe she send you in the post, but now you knew it by heart. 
“Cantonese style braised beef stew with white radish, bean curd sheets and a side of rice,” you inform him and brush your hand over his, that was placed on your stomach. Hearing that, he has to make sure he’s not drooling.
“And for dessert…” You nod your head toward the piping hot apple crumble pie currently cooling on the kitchen island. “We still have some vanilla ice cream if you want to have that with your pie. I know you want to be healthy, but I just really wanted to make a pie and this one does have filling,” you ramble, joking on the last part about the filling. He probably thought you were pestering him with his diet that most likely didn’t allow him to eat it. 
You wince a bit, feeling him tense against you. “You don’t have to eat it, my love, promise!”
“No petal, you’re just… you’re just so perfect,” Henry admits, pressing a kiss just below the strap of the pistachio green apron you were wearing, nuzzling his nose in your tousled hair.
Tumblr media
It was a gloomy Saturday morning in London. If your alarm hadn’t gone off, you wouldn’t have known it was morning already.
Yesterday after dinner, the two of you cuddled up on the sofa, under a warm blanket with Kal snuggled up on your lap. His head resting in your lap, while his tail occasionally slapped Henry in the face, making you burst out laughing and Henry almost choke on the fur. The akita would fondly press his snout deeper against you, really loving the head scratches he was receiving. Both you and Henry were fully satisfied with the tasty dinner you had paired with a glass of wine and were now cheekily flirting with each other while watching a detective movie, of which you missed the plot because you were, well, differently occupied…
Now the bedroom held a calm, soft aura, a dim light streaming in through the linen curtains. You let out a little whimper, not wanting to leave the bubble you are in and stretch out your limbs. A bit sore from sleeping in a weird angle, amongst other things. Behind you, you hear a small sound of protest and before you know it, you are engulfed by a strong arm. Henry hides his face in the side of your neck, keeping his eyes closed, groaning, clearly displeased with the fact it was morning already. 
You smile, this was your favorite kind of morning. Warm and cozy in bed, cuddling with your boyfriend. You turn around, careful to not let any cold air under the duvet, your arm going around the large form beside you and curling your fingers in the mess of curly hair. Henry moaned, burying his face lower, between your breasts. Now fully content and still a bit dazed by sleep, he lets out the most awful snore. Even though he sounded like a drowning goat when he snored, you couldn’t do anything other than coo and gently scratch your fingers on his scalp, lovingly gazing at the man beside you. 
“Are we going to be lazy couch potatoes today?” You chuckle, placing a kiss on his forehead, wild curls tickling your nose as you do so. Your voice was still a little raspy, but Kal apparently still heard you, and pushed open the door to come snuggle in bed with his favorite humans. 
“What time is it?” Henry groans. 
“Around 8.”
“We can be busy bees if you want,” Henry whispered against the swell of your breast, peppering delicate kisses on the bare skin. “Or better yet, busy bunnies.”
Kal was now situated on the end of the bed, head on his paws while the serenity of the room made him doze off. His dad on the other hand was now slowly waking up, as his hand crept lower and lower over your body. You giggled and pushed his hand away.
“There is a child present ,” you motion towards a sleeping Kal, who lays stretched out on the feathery duvet, already heading off to dreamland looking content as ever. Henry lifts his head, peering at his buddy and snorts, “he’s seen much worse, haven’t you bear?” But he doesn’t get acknowledged. 
Laying his head back, he reaches up to push your hair out of your face before grabbing your cheek and pulling you down for a kiss. He places three kisses on your swollen lips, lightly sucking on the bottom one.
“May-,” you try to say something, but he just pushes his mouth harder against yours. Quickly taking the opportunity to stop you from making excuses. A hoarse chuckle rumbles from his chest, as he wraps you in his arms.
“Stop talking, woman, and kiss me back.” You let out a small moan and grip the curls you were playing with moments ago. He deepens the kiss slightly, tongue invading your mouth, surprising you. A subdued hum escapes your mouth, resulting in him grabbing the back of your neck, as the other rests on your hip. The kiss gets deeper and more passionate as the minutes go by. Getting a bit overwhelmed you pull back slowly, softy panting. 
“Hmm, so sweet, darling,” he says smugly, earning a little smack to the chest as a bright blush covers your cheeks. Like it wasn’t already hard enough to resist him and stay in the warm bed all morning, he does this. Henry rolls your naked body over so you’re straddling him, a large hand wraps itself around your hair. He tugs, not too hard though, so he has more access to shower open mouthed kisses on your neck and chest. Leaving you a breathless mess on top of him. His hands trail from the top of your back to your rear, squeezing your cheeks before giving them a fast slap, making you take in a breath. 
From all the shuffling, little snickers and kissing noises, Kal woke up and groaned, irritated that his humans couldn’t just hanky-panky somewhere else. With a last disapproving look, he jumps off the bed, landing with a thump. From the sound of paws hitting the wooden floor and toddling down the stairs, you look over your shoulder, duvet falling down so you sat there fully naked, much to Henry’s delight. 
Then you felt it. It was normal for Henry to get hard in the morning. To be honest, he would be a bit worried if his cock wasn’t hard first thing when waking up.
Involuntarily you grind down, drawing a heavy moan from deep in his chest. Holding intense eye contact with him, you start humping over his bare front, mewling like a kitten in heat. It was embarrassing how he had you wrapped around his finger. A cheeky smile formed on his face, “look who came around.” Your body was practically begging for sex. 
Pouting, you keep on moving your hips in a tantalizing slow rhythm, scratching at his hairy chest. Making sure you kept your eyes on his, he licked his three middle fingers and a second later you feel him reaching between your thighs, wiping his fingers down your slit. Tensing up a little, you try to hold back a grunt at the sensation. 
“Oh darling,” he started, his voice going an octave lower, “what a mess you’ve made.”
He pulls back and observes your reaction when he pops his finger in his mouth.
“Wet and sweet, like always.”
“You are so nasty,” you whisper in total awe at what he manages to do to your body. He snickers and you quickly grab his hand, pushing it back between your thighs, “I didn’t tell you to stop, though.”
Your jaw goes slack, the moment you feel his thick fingers moving in and out of you. He was hitting just the right spot, making you groan and throw your head back. He felt like he couldn’t hold back anymore, he quickly flips you over so he’s on top of you, fully trapping you underneath his body and smashes his mouth on yours. Everything was happening so fast that you couldn’t pay attention to every incredible thing he was making you feel. Taking his cock in hand, he rubs his shaft against you, up and down, pressing it so you could feel the length. You look up at him, veins bulging in his neck, eyes dark, face already becoming flushed. God, he was so sexy. Grabbing your legs, he pushes your knees back so you were completely spread open and at his mercy. 
He curses under his breath and lines himself up with you sticky center. Stifling your moans and pants, by pressing his lips to yours, when he slowly sinks his thick cock inside. 
“Oh my god,” you whine, feeling him stretching your walls apart, pushing himself deeper and deeper. 
“Y’feel so warm and tight, my love. M’so hard it hurts.” Henry whines against your lips, lacing his fingers in between yours. He trails kisses in your neck and under your ear, trying to get as close to you as possible. He loved feeling your body against his. Your walls were so plushy and wet for his cock, he wanted to stay buried in you forever. 
“M’gonna make you feel so good, darling,” he whispers in your ear. You whine softly, getting worked up, “please.”
He smirked, obviously liking your plea. 
Instead of giving you a nice, hard pounding, Henry wanted to go slow. It was still very early in the morning, the both of you still barely awake and he wanted to savor this moment with you.
“Oh, Hen-,” you pant softly, loving every bit of it. As he pushes deeper into you, you can feel his entire weight pressing down against you. The weight comforted you in a sense, like others would with a weighted blanket. He prolonged his strokes, making sure that when he slid out you could feel every centimeter of him, but then slid back in quickly. 
“Fuck.” He grumbles into your neck, “feels so good, love,” he praises, nibbling on the skin under your ear, grabbing a handful of your hair pulling it back. You move you hands from his grasp and push them up his broad shoulders, pulling him closer to you.
“So good,” you moan out to him, feeling his cock nudge at the extremely sensitive spot deep inside your core. He lifts his head to look at you, seeing your mouth formed into the letter ‘o’, head tilted back into the cloud-like pillow and eyes screwed shut. A string of desperate moans falls from your lips. 
This was what he loved, seeing his love, his girl react to the way he was pleasuring her. Just looking at you in this state made his orgasm coil up in the pit of his tummy. He never would have dreamed that another person could give him this feeling, the feeling of utter bliss when you were together. The unconditional love he felt for you was indescribable. 
Henry continues to thrust into you and attaches his lips to yours, feeling you squeeze around him. You manage to spread your legs even wider and wrap them securely around his slim waist, digging your heels just above the globes of his perfectly sculpted ass. 
He was aiming his stokes into the deepest part of you and you felt yourself getting closer and closer to your release. 
“Fuck,” you whimper out to him, digging your nails into the skin of his back. He knew you were about to cum. You let out another loud moan. 
“Come on, petal. Cum f’me,” he pants, trying to coax you. Hearing the almost desperate tone in his voice, combined with the sound of him slapping his hips to yours and the feeling of his cock moving in and out of you was becoming overwhelming. 
“Oh my god!” A loud moan ripples through you, the feeling of your release coming near. 
“Almost, my love,” he moans, speeding up the pace of his thrust. He inhales sharply, wrapping his arms around your waist and pulls you up, quickly pounding into you. Completely losing control, trying to get deeper as if that was possible and lets his forehead rest against yours. With one last push of his hips, you get to your breaking point and cum, screaming. Henry feels your walls clamp around him and let’s go, fully satisfied. The noise he made was an orgasm on its own. He keeps himself against you when he lets go inside of you. You could feel Henry’s cum filling you as you slowly come down from your high. You feel his cum dripping out of you, almost proud of what you made him do. 
He is about to roll off of you to cuddle up beside you, but you stop him by tightening your legs around him. “Please stay like this,” you whisper, your brain still a bit muddled by the amazing orgasm you just had seconds ago. He smiles down at you.
“Don’t be a silly goose,” he kisses your nose, “I would crush you,” Henry says endeared with a cheeky grin and pulls you into his side. You feel warm and safe. You yawn, blinking away when your eyes become watery.
“I can’t move,” biting your bottom lip, you snuggle closer to him, “and my throat hurts like hell.”
Henry lowers his hand to your ass and gives it a firm squeeze, “I’m not surprised. Oh doll, the sounds you were making,” he bites his bottom lip, closing his eyes. 
You laugh and roll your eyes. Henry nipped at your neck, making you erupt into a fit giggles. He chuckles, leaving a kiss on the spot he had just bitten. 
Henry trails his hands up and down your back. You closed your eyes and tangle your leg in between his, really liking the feeling. His chest was heavenly and just being in his arms felt amazing. He almost lulled you back to sleep the moment he began to run his fingers through your hair. 
“That good, huh? Almost fucked you back to sleep,” he chuckles. 
“It was alright, I guess,” you tease him. He raises his eyebrows, eyes twinkling with joy. 
“How would you rate the experience?” 
Tilting your head to look up at him, “Hmm, ten I guess.”
He looked very pleased with that.
“Out of twenty,” you finish. 
“OUT OF TWENTY?” He sobered up, staring at your face with a shocked expression. 
You snicker, climbing into his lap, “No, honey, I was just joking, I’m sorry.” A big pout forming on your face, making you look oh so innocent. 
“If you keep looking at me like that, I’m going to put you up on all fours and take you like that, don’t tempt me,” he says, shaking his head. Wiggling your brows you grin and kiss the dimple on his chin. 
“As much as I would enjoy that, I think Kal has to go potty and we have to eat.”
Tumblr media
After some hushed pillow talk and hoarse giggles between the silky sheets, you two decide to move downstairs and start making some fresh coffee. When you lift your body out of the bed, a light throbbing shoots between your legs. You almost fall back into the mattress, making Henry roar with laughter. You end up getting a piggy back ride down the stairs, only wearing a v-neck shirt from Henry that fell just below the curve of your ass and showed plenty of cleavage. Your lilac panties were fully on display and your almost black hair looked like a lion’s main on top of your head, but you didn’t care. 
The both of you were still in that bubbly, fulfilled state of mind, looking like two drugged out kids, wearing blissful smiles. When you got to the kitchen, Kal bounded around the corner, coming from the sitting area, his tail wildly sweeping through the air. Eyes sparkling with happiness when he saw his parents finally had left the bed. 
“早上,宝宝” (morning, baby) You greet him, still on Henry’s back. Kal gives you a high “woof” as to say good morning back. After living with Henry and Kal for around eight months now, the akita started to pick up on a few Chinese phrases. He even decided the pet name ‘宝宝’ (bao bao), which means baby or darling, was only to be applied on him and nobody else. 
Every time you would video call with your Chinese speaking friends, and they talked about or to their children, Kal would cheerfully patter over, thinking they were cooing at him instead of the small infant in the background. But you thought it was the sweetest thing ever, he was your little fur baby after all. 
“I’m going to make us some omelets, is that alright with you, darling,” Henry asked, already opening the fridge and looking for the carton of eggs.
“Yeah, ‘course,” you call out to him. You give Kal his breakfast and receive many, wet kisses in return. Shuffling back over to your boyfriend, you lean against the dark green counter with its wooden countertops, and look at him carefully chopping up some bell peppers and onion, only wearing his joggers and a tank top. You were a lucky girl, and you knew it. Henry sends you a grin and winks before turning back to cutting the vegetables.
You begin to brew some fresh coffee for Henry, and put on the kettle for your morning tea. While he was finishing up breakfast, you start to read the newspaper to him. He absolutely adored it when you’d read to him, due to your accent becoming more noticeable. Kal came over to you, stuffing his wet nose against the hand you held out to him. “You’re such a good boy, Kal. Yes, you are,” you tell him in a baby voice, “you’re my little angel aren’t you? 我的小天使” 
You clean the table, after eating your breakfast and get ready for the day. Henry was already out to go on a walk with Kal. It did indeed snow last night and everything outside was hidden underneath a thin sheet of white snow, so you made sure Henry was wrapped up in a thick scarf you made him and a black beanie. After giving you a kiss as if he was off to fight in a war, he and Kal happily walked through the front door, into the freezing cold. Him whistling and Kal buzzing with excitement. 
Brushing your teeth and doing your makeup, you dance through the bathroom, in a good mood. You grab your phone that was propped up against the mirror, planning to put on the podcast you had been enjoying lately. You freeze seeing all the notifications, not having heard your phone due to it being on ‘quiet’. You swallow.
Oh shit.
There you were, plastered on the internet for everyone to see and laugh at. You and Henry making out on the parking lot of the Chinese supermarket. Was he going to be angry with you? It was your fault for teasing him after all. Oh no no no…
‘Henry Cavill and girlfriend were spotted having a steamy make out session outside local grocery store’
The headline read, making your face as red as a tomato. Trying to fight against it, you couldn’t hold yourself from reading the next paragraph. 
Being in the middle of winter, doesn’t stop these two lovebirds from having a heated make out session in a parking lot!
Yesterday early in the evening, Witcher-superstar Henry Cavill was spotted with (to some) much younger girlfriend, designer, Y/N Y/L/N. The two have  recently confirmed their relationship with an Instagram post from Cavill, showing a candid of Y/N, with the short caption ‘My sunshine enjoying the sun shine’. Last month Vogue came out with a video featuring Y/L/N in which Cavill and his dog Kal made an appearance, making fans go wild. It seems like the two really are living the life and we are excited to see more of them together!

This was it. You could already hear your sweet grandma, praying to the ancestors to forgive you for your sins, lighting all the incense she could find. You were a disgrace to the family now. It wasn’t that you were ashamed or felt bad about doing it, hell, everybody in the position would gladly sit on Henry’s shoulders and stick their tongue down his throat. You were just disappointed you got caught.
From downstairs you hear the door close with a loud thump and the pitter-patter from Kal’s nails on the hardwood floor, letting you know your two boys were back home. You nervously descend the flight of stairs, holding your head low and tightly clutching your phone in hand. 
“Hey, lovey! you really missed something, Kal and I could practically ice skate over the walking trails, it was so much fun!” Henry says enthusiastically as he hears you wander into the living room. You ignore him and plop down on the couch.
“I’m sorry,” you whisper, not meeting his eyes. 
A frown makes its way onto his face. 
“What are you sorry for, sweet girl?” His eyes hold a concerned look, not understanding what you were talking about. You huff out a breath and hand him your phone so he could see the article. 
A roaring laugh sounds through the open space, making your head shoot up. “Yeah, I saw it this morning when I went and checked my Instagram,” he chuckles, face still rosy from going outside. 
“We really gave the paparazzi a field day, didn’t we?” He continues.
“Your ass looks great in this pic, though. Look,” pointing to the one were he had you lifted over his shoulder, but softens his voice when he sees how tense you were. 
“Aw, doll, loosen up, I’m not mad or anything, if that’s what you think. I’m rather pleased now that everybody can see how happy we are and how much joy you bring me,” he lets you know nonchalantly, pressing a smooch to your forehead and starts to march towards the kitchen.
“You want another cuppa, lovey?”
And just like that, you were back in your good mood, perplexed at how well he took all of this.

*looks around* hey uh.... can u do michael, frank, danny and evan with an s/o who simps over fictional characters or celebrities.
I like ur writing btw :))
Yay! I'm glad you enjoy it~ Here's the lads for you!
Michael Myers
He’s always thought you were stupid, and now knowing that you fawn over fictional characters/celebrities certainly doesn’t change his opinion of you.
Absolutely does not get why you fuss over them so much, but also doesn’t really care, either.
Will get up and leave if you annoy him with it enough, but he’ll come back. Eventually.
Will also huff and roll his eyes every time you squeal about this and that and the other. He kinda likes seeing you so… energetic over something, but this is Michael we’re talking about he’ll always do his own thing, his own way, and the two of you just sort of coexist with one another’s quirks.
He won’t complain too much. He’ll let you do your thing and you’ll let him do his.
Frank Morrison
Frank, though he may not admit it at first, has had his fair share of fictional/celebrity crushes.
Will tease the shit out of you for it, but not in a mean spirited way. He doesn’t want to make you feel bad about it, so if he’s pushing a little to hard please tell him he really doesn’t want to make you upset seriously-
After a while, he might divulge some of his own crushes (eventually). The rest of the Legion (especially Susie) will definitely jump in and tell you about their own little crushes.
It’ll turn into one of those cliche, girly sleepovers seen in movies. “Omg, do you know about... ?” “Yeah! And what about…?” “He’s sooo cute!” You get the point lol.
Overall, definitely doesn’t mind, will listen to you talk for hours cause he loves you, ya dork.
Danny Johnson
Oh God help you…
Danny is a fucking asshole, even if he does love you. So learning something new about you that he can use to possibly make you miserable he will use without mercy or discrimination
And by “make you miserable”, I mean he will make you cry and feel bad about yourself
Will also use it as a manipulation tactic. “Oh, you like so and so? You… like them more than me…? You’d leave me for them? No? Really? I don’t believe you. Prove it.”
After making you cry and feel horrible about yourself, will use that as a means to have sex with you. The man loves making you cry. But, what did you really expect? This IS Danny Johnson we’re talking about. He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. You knew that when you got with him. Right?
Evan Macmillan
You like WHO-
Yeah, okay so here’s the deal: Evan is a jealous bastard, no matter how many times you explain that: No, you aren’t going to leave him. No, you don’t actually want anyone else. Yes, you do love him, and that hasn’t changed in the slightest.
Will get possessive over you, even though literally none of these people exist in the Entity’s realms, if they exist at all.
Low (High) Key acts like a child not wanting to share his toys. Will actually become clingy and a little overbearing whenever you bring up your little “crushes”.
Will start growling every time you bring it up, but will make sure to remind you who exactly you belong to if you don’t relent when he starts to get agitated.

flume (Josh Kiszka x reader)
sorry about the wait! like I said I'm in the process of moving so I've been quite busy but I'm hoping to get around to my other requests in the next few days. For now though please enjoy this tooth rotting fluff about our favorite little lad!
Warnings: None
Finally, you let out a sigh of relief as you shut your laptop, having just finished writing a paper for a class you were taking over the summer. You had wanted to get a head start on your academics so you could hopefully graduate in the winter, leaving you more time to start your career and life with your amazing, sexy and talented boyfriend.
Joshua Kiszka was the love of your life, the apple of your eye, and you were absolutely obsessed with him. The feeling was mutual, never did a day pass by where Josh didn’t remind you how much you mean to him and how lucky he was to exist in the same universe as you. Yes, he could get a little sappy, but that just made you love him even more.
It was already 10pm, and Josh had been gone for a few hours now, meeting up with the rest of the band and their management team to discuss the upcoming tour over dinner. You were completely fine having a night alone, it actually gave you time to focus on your work rather than your extremely distracting other half. You had just been worried about Josh lately. On the outside he was his usual hyper and positive self, but you know that he has been worrying non-stop about the upcoming tour. It had been a little while since the guys performed live and Josh was riddled with anxiety about it. You knew it would go off without a hitch and that the fans would absolutely love it, but you understood Josh’s feelings and made sure to let him know they were valid and offer your support. To make matters worse the band, specifically Josh, had been gaining attention on social media, with a video of their performance from SNL a couple years ago going viral. There were a lot of people criticizing Josh’s performance and mannerisms, many of them saying he was probably addicted to cocaine or something. That was far from the truth though.
You remember that night, being backstage with Josh and trying to calm his nerves. Not only was he dealing with anxiety but he was also a bit under the weather. Personally you loved the performance, and thought Josh did amazing justice to the song he wrote about you. Everytime you hear “You’re the One” your heart basically beats out of your chest.
Now you just couldn’t wait for the Kiszka boy to be home so you could hear all about his day.
Around 10:30 you heard the door open and you made your way down the stairs from your room. Josh was setting his keys on the counter and before you could even say anything he was covering his face with his hands, obviously trying to hide his expression from you.
“Joshy, baby come here” you said gently as you made your way over to him. You wrapped your arms tight around him, breathing in his wonderful scent, as he finally loosened up and returned the hug. You could feel him softly cry into your shoulder, your hand immediately going to the back of his head, petting his hair and cooing “You’re okay baby, it's going to be okay”.
After a minute he pulled away from the embrace, arms still wrapped around you, with a few tears still running down his face. “Thank you” he said quietly in a hoarse voice, offering a small smile.
“Do you wanna talk about what’s going on?” you ask him, completely fine if he refused.
“I’ve just never been so nervous in my life, and all the backlash and rumors about me online aren’t helping.”
“Babe I’m sorry, I can’t imagine how stressed and overwhelmed you must be. Just know that I personally think you are absolutely astounding, and I’m sure there are millions of people who would agree. You will always have me, no matter what anyone says or even if you completely suck on tour, which I know for a fact you won’t.”
Josh chuckles a little and says “Thanks love, you have such a way with words”
You roll your eyes, “C’mon Josh you know what I’m trying to say, I’ve never been one to sugar coat things now have I?”
He pulls you in again before whispering “I seriously have no idea what I’d do without you, you are my rock and my safe space.”
You pull back only to grab his face in between your palms and give him a passionate kiss.
“Come on lover boy, why don't you go take a warm shower and then we can curl up in bed.”
“That sounds amazing”
You both make your way upstairs and as Josh goes in the bathroom you change into a pair of soft shorts and one of his shirts.
You’re about to go get two glasses of water when your boyfriend pops his head out of the bathroom door.
“Hey, I know it’s kind of a weird question but...I just don’t wanna be alone right now, so would you mind just sitting in here while I shower?”
“Not at all” you say, giving him a reassuring smile.
You go in the bathroom and leave the door open, Josh is in just his boxers as you hop up onto the counter and sit with your back against the wall. He peels his last garment of clothing off as you steal a quick peek at his ass, what can you say, it’s pretty damn cute.
As he shampoos his hair and soaps up his body you two talk about nothing in particular, just doing your usual silly bickering about different film meanings or which John Denver song is the best.
Once he gets out, he quickly pats himself off with a towel, throwing on a pair of soft tan shorts.
As he assumes his position in your bed you go grab the glasses of water you had intended to earlier. After coming up and handing him his cup you get under the covers and pull them up only about halfway. You wrap yourself around Josh, knowing that in his vulnerable state you need to be the big spoon and cradle him like he usually does for you.
You press a few kisses to his temple and the back of his neck before saying goodnight.
“Thank you again, for everything. It is impossible to put into words how much it means to me, how much YOU mean to me.”
“You don’t even need to use words baby, I feel it all the time, I’m convinced our souls are intertwined.”
“And that makes me the luckiest guy on earth”
“And I am the luckiest girl. I love you, try and get some sleep baby”
You’re able to catch his last few words before you drift off into a peaceful sleep.
“You’re my one.”

“That’s bad for you know.”
“I know.”
Sirius steps forward and plucks the cigarette out of Remus’ fingers. The taller lad expects him to toss it off the side of the tower, which is why he’s slightly surprised when Sirius pulls it to his lips and takes a long drag.
“I thought it was bad for you.”
Sirius shrugs and doesn’t reply.
Remus watches him carefully. The moonlight reflects of his silky black hair which is slightly curly, framing his sharp-cut jawline and perfect smile. His eyes glimmer with the colours of a storm – it’s fitting, he thinks, since Sirius is always finding himself in the middle of chaos.
His lips are arched perfectly, shaped around the end of the burnt-out cigarette in a way that sends Remus’ thoughts spiralling. He shakes his head, looking away, trying not to let his mind fall into the gutter.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Remus daren’t look at the stupidly gorgeous lad beside him.
“Nothing. Just a little dizzy.”
“Should we go inside? I don’t want you to fall from up here.”
Remus shakes his head silently, ignoring the cautious glances Sirius throws his way. After another minute, the shorter lad flicks the cigarette off the tower, and they both watch as it tumbles down before disappearing below a layer of fog.
“Have you got any more?”
“Not on me.”
“Can you summon me some?”
“I don’t have my wand.”
Sirius gives a short, joyful laugh at the statement. It’s deeply contrasting to their surroundings – an ancient tower surrounded by heavy, lingering fog, and a deathly winter chill.
But Sirius seems to contrast everything. He lights up the dark, but he can extinguish a fire. He’s always brewing up some kind of storm, yet he keeps himself out of trouble almost every time. He loathes the majority of his blood family, but he loves every single member of his real family.
Sirius Black – a living oxymoron.
“Penny for your thoughts.”
“My thoughts are worth more than that.”
Sirius huffs and digs into the pocket of his leather jacket. For a moment, Remus thinks he’s bluffing, until he pulls out a handful of galleons and drops them into the werewolf’s pocket.
“There. Spill.”
Remus’ eyes are wide with disbelief.
“How much was that?”
“Enough for a thought or two, hopefully.”
The taller lad huffs and shakes his head. Absolutely unbelievable, is Sirius Black.
“I was thinking about you,” he admits. “You’re a living oxymoron. Your existence is one big juxtaposition, constantly.”
Remus makes the mistake of looking at Sirius. The elder scrunches his nose in confusion, and Remus thinks he might have a heart attack right then. He’s so adorable.
“What are those things?”
He looks away quickly, hoping Sirius doesn’t notice the blush creeping up his neck and flushing his cheeks. If he does, he doesn’t mention it.
“An oxymoron is two words beside each other that don’t fit right. You know, like, awfully nice, idiotically smart.”
“And the other?”
“Juxtaposition is almost the same, I suppose. It’s two conflicting ideas that are seen or placed together. Discipline and rebellion, tradition and unconventionality.”
“You’re really smart, you know. It’s cute how many Muggle things you know.”
“Mum was a good teacher.”
“Well then, I’ll thank Hope when I see her.”
Remus laughs gently, turning his head to see Sirius staring at him with an unreadable look in his eye. They just stand in silence for a moment, enjoying the view.
“You’re staring, love.”
“You started it.”
“Maybe I wanted to watch the beauty that is you.”
Remus’ heart skips a beat as Sirius moves forward ever so slightly, as if for asking for some kind of permission. His eyes flicker from the werewolf’s eyes to his lips and back again, and then he leans in a little more.
“Can I kiss you?”
“Please.”
And then the world melts away around them, everything goes up in flames with one small gesture, and Remus is completely uncertain if he’s still alive.

TMBS Book 1 Brain Dump
~An Embarrassingly Long Post~
I don’t know why I’m writing this or why I’m so determined to do it. Maybe to finally assume my true form and become a mega dork on main, or maybe just for fun!
This is basically a compilation of all the main points running through my head after reading The Mysterious Benedict Society (2007) for the first time. Rather than posting a ton and spamming the tag, everything’s here in one neat package! (hopefully this gets it all out of my system rip)

The Book Itself
Upon acquiring the first three books (don’t judge me pls), I was surprised at just how long they are. Like, they’re still pretty light being paperbacks and all, but these books are hefty lads.
The first book has this Disney+ Original Series circle thing printed on it, which is kind of unfortunate. Regardless, I love the cover illustration and yellow is actually my favorite color :D It made me weirdly quite happy whenever I saw the book lying around in my room
Also, it’s really cute how there’s a letter from Mr. Benedict at the end! (It only reveals that you can find out his first name if you “know the code”, meaning the bit of Morse printed below the summary on the back.) Shock and horror, though, as I realized I’m starting to recognize some of the letters
Tumblr media
The Book Itself, for real this time
It’s wonderful how the tone of the book really shone through to the show adaptation. Something about the deliberateness of the aesthetic, from the set designs to the fashion to scene compositions, that really sells that particular style— like it’s very clear that this story is being told to us, rather than one we’re seeing unfold, if that makes sense.
Where that narration style stood out to me the most was the first chapter. We are told (rather than shown) how Reynie gets himself to the point of the second test, and there’s this whole twisty time maneuver for that whole sequence of events that’s really interesting
A super secret fun fact about me is that I wanted to be a writer when I was younger! So this particular balance of show vs. tell is really neat, since it runs counter to my own tendencies. The sheer amount of commas in every sentence is also kind of comforting, since Ahah, I Do That in those few serious-ish attempts at writing lol
Overall this book’s style reminds me a lot of Roald Dahl’s books, which are very nostalgic for me :D The whole “kids are more competent than adults” angle helps a lot too haha
The Characters
Oh boy here’s where I get a little bit critical! Overall I did really like this book!! it’s just that that expresses itself in all this weird “”analysis”” lol
Reynie - much better in the books than in the show
It’s sort of a lukewarm take but I feel like show!Reynie is kind of boring? He doesn’t have a lot going on flaw-wise, and obviously since he’s the protagonist he can’t have too many weird traits or else the kids watching can’t project themselves onto him as easily
(I call it the difference between an aspirational protagonist and a vessel protagonist. Going off of the Roald Dahl vibes, think Matilda vs Charlie. show!Reynie is more of a Charlie)
Thus when we get to see him really struggle with the Whisperer and doubt himself it gives him a lot more dimension, at least in my opinion
It is a federal crime that the white knight scenes were not adapted into the show
Sticky - my son
I’ve long held to no one besides myself and my long suffering sister that Sticky is The Best Member of the Society
He happened to hit a lot of the Bingo squares of Stuff I Like In Characters: glasses, anxious, nice :), kind of a coward but ultimately is there for his friends, etc
For some reason I don’t talk about him nearly as much as you-know-who, but I love him just as dearly
Kate & Constance - I don’t have much to say
Kate is really interesting in this book! I like how we get to see more of her depths, in particular that one passage about her belief that she is invincible being the only thing that keeps her from falling apart? :c
Also her constant fidgeting is relatable lol
Constance is somehow a lot more tolerable in the book. I think I’m just one of those people with no patience for small children, unfortunately lol
(Some of) The Adults
It’s interesting that they had such an offscreen presence for most of the book. Giving them more time was probably one of the stronger changes of the show
However if that decision was made at the expense of the white knight scenes I think the choice should have been clear
I like the way Rhonda and Number Two are written
Milligan always on sad boy hours 😔✊
The “mill again” passage is touching but kind of messes up the pacing of the getaway, at least for me. Maybe I should read it again to make sure I didn’t miss something
Miss Perumal is much better in the show. We see so little of her in the book she doesn’t function well as an emotional anchor for Reynie, imo
The Institute Gang
Jackson and Jillson serve their purpose well, and Martina was surprising to say the least. I like the direction they took her in the show! I can’t imagine how funny it must have been to watch the tetherball subplot come out of nowhere lolol
These sections were written out of sequence, so random tidbit I couldn’t fit in The S.Q. Section: I like how he stumbles over his words. relatable
Mr. Curtain
While I think I know why they decided to not give Curtain the wheelchair in the show, we were totally robbed of Actor Tony Hale’s performance for the reveal during the final confrontation
Speaking of the wheelchair, it’s such a powerful symbol of his need for control or rather, his fear of losing it
The Contrast between him and Mr. Benedict. This point is expanded on in A Funny Parallel
Mr. Benedict
Oh boy, Mr. Benedict… How do I say this
I find it hard to trust Mr. Benedict, unfortunately
I mean to say, I do in the sense that I know he would never hurt the kids, thanks to knowing that a) this is a children’s book series and b) the meta (tumblr) states that he is really nice and lovable and stuff, but seriously. Why do the kids trust him at first?? I probably missed something somewhere
I like to think I’m an optimistic person, but unfortunately I’m also super paranoid. The premise of “a bunch of vulnerable orphans team up with a strange old man” is just so odd to me I don’t know how to explain it
I don’t know!!! I really want to trust Mr. Benedict
One of the strengths of the show is that we get to see him more often, and thus he gets to acknowledge more often that the plan is weird and that he feels really badly for putting the kids in danger and that he’s trustworthy and genuine
But his lack of presence for most of the book just makes him into something of a specter, invisible and unknowable, speaking only in riddles from across the bay
Which is why the white knight scene is so important!! I loved that scene ;-;
Because here’s an actual emotional connection! We can actually see it happening, rather than only being told that it exists
Reynie asking for advice and receiving encouragement, in words that demonstrate that Mr. Benedict actually cares about him and worries about him and agghh
It is a federal crime that the white knight scenes were not adapted into the show
But overall this whole issue didn’t ruin my enjoyment of the book at all! It’s just ->
A Funny Parallel
Okay, ready for my biggest brain, hottest take ever??
Mr. Benedict and Mr. Curtain…. are… the same
I mean obviously not entirely, given that one is benevolent and kind and the other is… Mr. Curtain
But seriously. Genius old man seeks out children (mainly orphans) to enact a plan. Said children often end up incredibly devoted to his cause and deeply admire him this is a little flimsy
Undoubtedly that’s intentional and is supposed to show the difference between them, like some kind of cautionary tale? “Let yourself be vulnerable and let others help you, lest you turn eeeeviiillll”
I guess that’s where the aforementioned epic contrast comes in. You get Mr. Curtain, strapped into his wheelchair and hiding behind those mirrored sunglasses, terrified (but unwilling to admit it) of ever showing the tiniest hint of vulnerability, vs. Mr. Benedict, who can let himself fall knowing that someone will catch him :’)
Anyhow I have nothing against the parallels, I just think it’s funny
The S.Q. Section
The S.Q. Quarantine Thread so it doesn’t leak out everywhere else <3
I’d like to meet the emo angstlord genius who read this book and decided to make SQ into Dr. Curtain’s son. What in the world
Okay I should probably preface this by saying that I absolutely adore both book!S.Q. and show!SQ with all my heart. Somehow, despite being a completely different character in both mediums, he has managed to be one of the best characters in either and certainly one of my favorites (besides Sticky of course) in the entire franchise, despite the fact that I’ve only read the first book/watched the show so far. I am confident in this statement.
But seriously! How?? Why?? I could probably write a whole other essay about why show!SQ is such an interesting character, and the change works so incredibly well. I’m just. Baffled
Okay, focus. book!S.Q. is such a sweetheart, oh my goodness. Like, 100% one of the most endearing characters in the book. Poor guy. I don’t even know where to start!!
He just seems to be a genuinely good guy at heart, despite being technically one of the bad guys. He’s genuinely happy for Reynie and Sticky when they became Messengers and helped Kate when she “fell” and was concerned about Constance when she looked sick and how he was in that meeting with Mr. Curtain and Martina?!!? aaahhhhghgh ;-; he just wants people to be happy TT-TT
Comparing him against literally every character at the Institute is probably what makes him so endearing tbh. When everyone else is so awful to the kids, it really makes him stand out. Like a cheerful little nightlight in the worst, most humid and rank bathroom you’ve ever been in
Tumblr media
It’s kind of pointless to theorize about a book series that’s already concluded (I think?) but. Is the implication of S.Q.’s forgetfulness supposed to be that Mr. Curtain used him in brainsweeping experiments somehow? The timeline probably definitely absolutely doesn’t line up but like. How did he get to being a Messenger being the way he is now, given how cutthroat the process is? And then of course Mr. Curtain keeps him around as an Executive because he’s fun to mess with and presumably his loyalty. I’m very curious as to how their relationship develops in the other books, if at all. Those are probably where the seeds of the “let’s make them family” logic were planted
But wouldn’t it be hilarious if the reason we don’t know what “S.Q.” stands for in the books is that he just. Forgot
Another thing that occurred to me. Given that he and the other Executives were Messengers at some point, what were their worst fears? What is S.Q.’s worst fear?? Inquiring minds need to know
One last horrible little anecdote: I was thinking about book!S.Q. while eating breakfast, as one does, and suddenly it hit me.
I want to believe The Author Trenton Lee Stewart had the name for a character, S.Q. Pedalian, and was like, “Hm! What sort of quirky trait should this young fellow have?” Because, of course, in this style of fiction every character has to have at least one cartoonish or otherwise distinguishing trait to stand out in the minds of children. (For instance, Kate has her bucket, Sticky has his glasses, Constance is angry, and Reynie is Emmett from the Lego Movie)
Anyhow, he looks around the room, searching for inspiration. Suddenly he comes across a jumbo box of plastic wrap. Completely innocuous in design, save for one line of text. 300 SQ FT.
“…large… S.Q. …feet? THAT’S IT!” i’m sorry
Lines & Scenes I Liked
In no particular order!
Sticky quotes Sun Tzu, The Art of War
Evil combination aerobics/square dancing in the gym with the Executives
Everyone being happy at the end :’)
Everyone partying after Sticky reunites with his parents, and later finding Mr. Benedict asleep at his desk from the moment they shook hands :’’)
Literally any scene with Sticky in it
Any time Kate says “you boys” or “gosh”
[“Um, sir?” S.Q. said timidly, raising his hand. “A thought just occurred to me.” / Mr. Curtain raised his eyebrows. “That’s remarkable, S.Q. What is it?”] clown prince of my heart </3
S.Q.’s determined monologue about searching for clues after he bungled up the first time
Literally any scene with S.Q. in it (please refer to The S.Q. Section)
Reynie trying to resist the Whisperer.
[Let us begin. / First let me polish my spectacles, Reynie thought. / Let us begin. / Not without my bucket, Reynie insisted. He heard Mr. Curtain muttering behind him. / Let us begin, let us begin, let us begin. / Rules and schools are tools for fools, Reynie thought.]
NO MORE HURTIN’ WITH CURTAIN
Milligan showing up on the island!!
Remember the white knight hhhhhh
“controle”
A Super Secret Bonus Section
I would be extremely surprised if anyone read through all the way down here lol. Regardless, here’s a little acknowledgements section :D not tagging anyone since I don’t want to bother all of these people
Special shoutout to tumblr blog stonetowns for unknowingly yet singlehandedly demolishing my reluctance to read the books by posting a ton of cute quotes. Thank you for your service o7
Thanks to the two OGs that liked the post I made right before this one, for being my unwitting enablers and for sticking around despite being a) technically an internet stranger (hello!) and b) someone I haven’t spoken to irl in literal years (hey!!)
Last but not least thankz 2 my sister for putting up with me ranting about the book when I first got it and for asking about “CQ” sometimes lol. (i desperately hope you’re not reading this orz)

guess what time it is?
elliott’s fuckin Pissed time
get ready for a lot of this to just be me being mad at ironwood and jacque and most of the ace ops
this will continue into vol 8 but it starts here
let’s go
- ironwood’s disheveled that means he’s unhinged
- 1894 vibes goin on here lads
- oh winter
- “let’s ditch the ship it’s too conspicuous” *walks in a giant group armed to the teeth in colorful huntsman & huntress outfits* good plan y’all
- it’s a surveillance state babey!!
- yang i don’t think that was a good idea. i do love her though i mean a lil robot took her picture with a bright flash and her first response was to punch it
- i think you’ve already caused a scene just by existing like that y’all
- hiiii not gepetto
- awww this music is nice. so comfortable. so cozy. so sweet. too bad it doesn’t last long
- pietro. i would die for you
- days since last nonsense: 0. good. as it should be.
- YEAH. HIS DAUGHTER. ugh she’s not even back yet and i’m gonna cry
- god weiss is so good at support
- AHHH THERE SHE ISSS
- OH FUCK THE MUSIC OH GOD IM GONNA CRY
- ahhhhh “salutations!!” their faces oh fuck i’m definitely crying a little. oh my little heart loves nuts & dolts so much
- STRANGELY WHOLESOME THATS FUCKIN RIGHT
- hey guess what. i love penny
- ugh. the best bootlickers in atlas
- i really don’t like them but their name is a very good pun. which i have to begrudgingly respect
- they just did your job FOR YOU you ASSHOLES
- oooo new intro. casey i love you you do such a good job every goddamn time
- nora said if i chomp my way out of the cuffs they’ll never see it coming!!
- listen winter qrow’s just along for the ride, he was never in charge of this operation
- the thing about ironwood is that he presents as a very reasonable guy. like his voice is generally steady and even a little soothing. he speaks very confidently and is clearly capable and good at what he does. he’s well dressed and well maintained, he commands respect, he holds himself with a lot of assurance. so it’s so interesting to me that a guy like this gets so paranoid and dictator-y
- i still haven’t decided if ruby deciding not to tell ironwood everything right away was a good idea or not
- UPGRADES, PEOPLE, UPGRADES
- most of the ace ops are actually like good genuine people, they’ve just been fed all this propaganda for so long that it takes so much to break them out of it. it’s also the element of like them being these people for so long and tying their identities to being The Ace Ops and Atlas’ Best so if they’re not that what are they?
- awww his tail’s wagging
- oh fuck ironwood and qrow hugged that’s so sad
- tyrian just casually chatting on the phone while murdering people
- love a strategy montage. new gear. intel meeting. seriousness.
- LOOK AT THEMMM THEYRE ALL SO GAY I LOVE THEM
- JAUNES LIL HAIRCUT AAHHH
- they’re so cool. like their landing strategies? they’re just so fuckin cool
- hey. hey you lil gays. how many times have i told you you need to stop with the fuckin cute shit. it’s too much. my lil heart can’t handle it
- “i like your outfit too!” jaune you lil dummy i love you
- just casual discussions of systemic social issues while on a dangerous mission
- all the upgrades!!! so cool!!
- awww qrow’s little face when clover tells him his semblance. i know that clover is a Grade A bootlicker and definitely an asshole a lot of the time but like… i love the qrow/clover relationship. qrow has never felt like he can really form close friendships cause he doesn’t want to be around them and cause bad shit to happen, and then this guy comes along, whose semblance counteracts his, so he doesn’t have to worry about fucking up clover’s life! he can have a close friendship now! it just gets me cause it gets qrow
- i like that all the kids are just watching in awe as the ace ops fight
- ruby’s lil giggle
- awww elm put ruby on her shoulders that’s so cute
- oh yeah this robyn fanboy gets absolutely murdered
- hiiiii bebbies 2/4 of my third favorite team
- heheheh thunder thighs
- hey guess what the ace ops are not friends, definitely not, they just have each other’s backs and keep each other alive and go through dangerous and traumatic situations together and know each other well enough to not have to talk during battle they just know what to do to help each other and they care about each other just a little bit but that’s all just work stuff, got it?
- jacque you asshole. you suck. you’re so controlling and manipulative. SHUT UP STOP GUILTING YOUR DAUGHTER YOU HUMAN SHAPED COWARD
- her friends have her back!!! you bitch
- THEYRE GETTING THEIR LICENSES IM SO PROUD OF THEM
- oh boy “i certainly could use more trustworthy fighters by my side” jeez i forgot how hunky dory it is at the beginning of the volume
- awww ruby’s so excited
- ugh watts & jacque really is just a team up of manipulative cowards
- oooo we love a fun lil montage
- the snow encrusted grimm effect is cool
- wait isn’t jaune like 17? these single moms crushing on him is weird
- penny just lightly hopping is so cute
- hehehe i love the roller skating lady she’s got some funny mid battle banter
- oh man it hurts how much good clover is doing for qrow. like he’s making him feel more positively about himself and cheering him on
- PENNYYY i love you you’re so literal and i love that about you
- ITS MY GIIIRRRLL ROBYN HIIII
- ooo i love when they hint at shit it’s so fun knowing what they’re talking about
- hiiiii my ladiesss i love you
- oh god it’s the election episode oh no
- awww they’re dancing
- ooof ruby has to third wheeeeel hahahaha
- ah fuck here we go with the creep team comin in to ruin everything
- fuck man this is so bad. fuck. people are dead and they’re getting driven apart
- awww marrow feels so bad
- uuugghhh i hate this so much
- oh yes outlawing public gatherings is definitely for the citizens’ safety
- maayyyy you’re so coooool
- the happy huntresses’ semblances work so well for the stuff that they do. like sensing when people are lying, turning stuff invisible, absorbing items, like those are all perfect for guerilla activism and resistance
- FUCK YEAH NORA FUCKIN STAND UP TO THIS BITCH YOU FUCKIN TELL HIM
- ironwood you fucking asshole arresting robyn isn’t gonna do shit
- oh ren. i saw this post talking about how ren siding with ironwood briefly completely made sense cause he felt sooooo out of his depth, like he was so incredibly aware that he is a /eenager/and that he doesn’t have the same skill sets as a lot of adults in the room. him wanting to give up responsibility and let the adults around him take charge and make decisions totally makes sense cause he felt so overwhelmed by the whole situation
- also blake being super uncomfortable with ambushing robyn & the happy huntresses makes total sense too cause she’s been them, she’s been the person trying to help and make a difference and stand up for herself and other people, and she sees how fucked up it is that ironwood keeps trying to silence her, no matter what his reasoning is
- yesss work together i love you alll
- ironwood if you’d only listened to this very wise child
- i’m sorry, is ironwood wishing he was more like salem??! so he wouldn’t be afraid or feel fear?? he wants to NOT HAVE HUMANITY because he thinks that’s a good way to save the world?? are you KIDDING MEEEE
- oscar you are so smart and i love you
- when i watched this the first time i was still optimistic at this point, like ironwood was being frustrating but i was like he’s a good guy he’s on ruby’s gang’s side and when his council seat got threatened i was so nervous i was like nooo he needs that seat and now i’m like god if only he got kicked off the council. though to be fair i’m not sure it would’ve helped, he might’ve lost it sooner cause he’s still the headmaster of atlas and the commander of the atlas military so it’s not like all his power would go away
- qrooowww i’m so proud of youuuu
- HA HA WHITLEY
- hehehehe good plan you guys i thoroughly enjoyed that
- oh winter
- aw hiiii mama schnee i love you. you deserved so much better than having your bitch ass husband abuse you and steal your name and your company from you
- oh yeah the fucking heaters!!! this poor child is so excited about the snow and he has no idea why that’s so bad oh god
- “jacque schnee! you are under arrest! …can i do that?” weiss i love you
- awww ruby and oscar are so awkward and sweet
- even finding out that salem can’t be killed ironwood’s priority is still trying to save mantle. what happened???
- god they’re all still friends this hurts
- aww poor whitley
- ohhh yeahhhh fuckin neo
- god mantle is so fucked. this is SO bad
- all the sirens and emergency lights turning on just one after the other, grimm after grimm
- oh yeah they’re telling atlas & mantle!! this is why i was so on board with ironwood at this point the first time i watched cause he was doing good things, he was doing helpful things. and then i got so incredibly pissed off cause all this shit he was saying about salem trying to divide them and not letting that happen and not giving in to fear or panic he just abandons. and divides them. and gives in to his fear and panic and paranoia and gives salem EXACTLY what she wants
- jauney boy you’re so smart and good with kids i love you
- damn elm that’s badass
- hahaha awww the lil ok sign
- THAT WAS SUCH A GOOD MOVE WHAT AMAZING TEAMWORK I LOVE THEM
- hehehe tyrian you’ve walked right into her trap she’s so smart
- here we gooo it’s bitch vs. dick
- i love that we get concept art during the credits, it’s so cool to see how much thought and effort the animators put into this
- i hate both of these people but this fight is so cool and this music is incredible
- aura breaks y’all
- eurgh god the force field thing jesus christ
- he’s really searing his own skin off, this man is… i don’t even know the word but he’s something
- the sad thing is that qrow and robyn and clover all fight really well together
- are you telling me. that all it took. for ironwood to completely 180. to fuck over everything. was a simple taunt? a little chess piece? they don’t even know that that means anything! it’s a taunt! also like saving the people of mantle is worth making themselves more vulnerable, if that’s even true, i can’t decide. the main threat right now is clearly to mantle, and yes one of them broke into ironwood’s office and put that little black queen there, but mantle is still in more danger! atlas is perfectly safe from most grimm but mantle is very very vulnerable. i’m so pissed jesus christ
- LOYALTY DOES NOT ALWAYS MATTER YOU FUCKIN ASSHOLE. THIS IS NOT THE FUCKING TIME TO WORRY ABOUT LOYALTY. WHO THE FUCK GIVES A SHIT ABOUT LOYALTY THIS IS THE END OF THE WORLD WE’RE TALKING ABOUT WILL YOU SHUT UP AND WORK WITH OTHER PEOPLE FOR ONE GODAMN SECOND
- ruby my love my baby you’re so brave she is so goddamn scary and she’s not even physically there yet
- SUMMER TALKED TO SALEM
- i totally forgot about that!!!! holy shit!!!
- oh shit ruby’s breaking down. that’s so sad jesus
- why do the ace ops and ironwood keep bringing up loyalty when team rwby mentions robyn?? they were just working with her and she was helping and they were all doing good why are they taking sides again and talking about fucking loyalty???
- HOW ARE THEY IN THE WAY THEY JUST WANNA SAVE PEOPLE YOU ASSHOLE
- ruby you’re a genius
- god her little speech
- why does this give me order 66 vibes
- oh yeah oscar’s gone too
- jesus
- this is
- so bad
- the next episode is called with friends like these and honestly how dare they
- clover, he is your friend can you please question orders for once
- you have a very dangerous prisoner in custody right now clover please for the LOVE OF GOD PRIORITIZE DIFFERENTLY
- winter i love you but why is your first reaction after hearing ruby’s message to go “weiss what did you do” as if anything any of them could have possibly done would justify ironwood going full fascist bad guy
- oooo penny GET HER
- “it should matter” penny i would fucking die for you
- oh shut up winter ‘hard decisions’ he’s not some brave guy making tough calls so no one else has to, he’s a fucking fascist who’s decided his way is the best way and anyone who disagrees with that is a threat
- awww marrow i love him he doesn’t wanna fight them
- OOOOO FUCK RUBY WHAT A LINE AND WHAT A MOVE GUESS WHAT I LOVE RUBY
- team rwby vs ace ops here we go what a fuckin fight
- oh elm shut the fuck up they didn’t betray you just uuuhghhhhh i’m so MAD
- hey weiss guess what i love you
- oh god tyrian dislocating his thumbs to get out of the cuffs, then putting them back in jesus christ
- oh this whole fight breaks my goddamn heart qrow doesn’t wanna fight clover and he has to fight tyrian but clover’s not giving him a choice and isn’t backing down so eventually he works with tyrian to take clover down because he has to and that eventually leads to clover dying which is also heartbreaking
- this is so bleak
- i’m so sad
- and there’s so much fuckin more
- one ace ops down babey!!
- my friend was doing a lot of commentary during this part, it was very fun
- like she’d go “one down!” or she’d say something about qrow’s fight or how strategic ruby’s opening move was or how these teenagers are so insanely good because they’re taking down atlas’s best huntsman team
- she’s got good insight and it was very entertaining cause she was very excited
- like there’s that very brief pause where everyone stops because a group of teenagers took down one of the ace ops like that’s fucking insane the ace ops so rarely ever go down let alone to some teenagers
- TWO DOWN BABEY
- they broke up the ground so elm didn’t have anything to anchor to!!! 
- i am obsessed with yang’s lil pivot from punching elm to punching the ground with her semblance. like not only is she learning when to use her semblance, she’s learning how to use it, like the power of it doesn’t necessarily have to go into an attack directly against the opponent
- THREE DOWN WHAT THE FUUUUCK
- FOUR DOWN AAAAAAAAHHHH ARE YOU KIDDING MEEEE
- heheh drop the legs
- i don’t think i realized this at the time but oscar punching neo like that is i think the first real hit we see anyone get in on her. and not only was it a hit it was a hit that knocked her illusion away
- i like that the maidens’ powers kind of manifest the way that matches the specific maiden, it’s not necessarily on theme, and that cinder’s just manifested in fire and destruction
- “it gives me personal feelings” penny i would murder for you
- tyrian’s semblance is so scary and so perfect for him i hate it
- somehow it’s more heartbreaking that qrow broke clover’s aura. like it would’ve been sad if he like killed clover but somehow it’s more devastating that he just created the opportunity for clover to die
- god with his dying breath he wished qrow good luck
- oh fuck the scream this is so painfullll
- hey
- hey buddy
- hey pal
- i’ll kill you
- last episode of the volume here we go lads
- i don’t think we’ve seen neo not land on her feet
- “and i refuse to starve” is such a good line what the actual fuck
- she’s not a toy you asshole she’s a real girl!!
- uh oh winter your aura broke and you’re hurtling to the earth guess you’re gonna die SIKE PENNY’S GOT YOUR BACK
- winter my love “my life doesn’t matter!” and PENNY “i disagree”
- my boy’s so tired y’all you gotta wait for him cmon guys
- neo is so goddamn smart with her semblance. like ren was maybe gonna get a hit on her but she used nora’s eyes to stop him and NOW HES CRYING I CAAAANT
- neo’s definitely a rogue
- she wasn’t waiting for you bitch
- she said nope lemme just catch that lil grimm hand of yours and freeze you
- a fully realized maiden. damn. you are not that cinder
- you don’t have to do it alone, oscar, you don’t have to do anything alone
- you did have a job and you did so good fria
- you asshole you just shot a child
- FUCK YEAH WINTER
- god fighting without an aura is so goddamn brave
- THE GLOW FROM HER EYES IS GREEN I LOVE HER
- god winter is so fucked up
- winter please stop assuming that weiss did something bad, it’s ironwood being an asshole
- weiss doesn’t wanna leave her sister!!! the love!!
- “you’re not leaving me! i’m giving you a head start.” god what a heartbreaking line jesus
- oh boy it’s the big sky boy
- she’s here. physically. she is actually here oh jesus christ
- god and that whole volume took place over what? a day?
- the “how we doing/how we feeling buddy” count at this point was… Very high
- and the answer almost every time was “i’ll kill you”
- so
- i’m sad
- and i am absolutely not ready for volume 8 it’s the fucking worst
- i’m really just gonna be alternating from being super pissed to tearing up and it’ll be some seriously fast pivots
- get ready for a lot of all caps and emotional lines and declarations of “IM CRYINNGG” it’ll be fun
