Fitz hcs pls. I want some Wonderboy Content <33
Headcanon A:  realistic
Fitz's love language is gift giving, so he got into jewelry making. It started as things to give as gifts to his friends and family (earrings for Keefe and Biana, bracelets for Sophie and Marella, necklaces for Dex and Wylie, rings for Stina and Tam, etc) but now it's a stress reliever. Biana teaches him a lot about it, and for a while it's a nice bonding activity too.
Headcanon B: while it may not be realistic it is hilarious
after his silly little incident, Fitz formed a vendetta against chandeliers. his future home uses multiple tiny lamps all over the house as well as fairy lights instead of something he could, potentially, be tangled in again when he has to use crutches when his limp acts up.
Headcanon C: heart-crushing and awful, but fun to inflict on friends
Fitz keeps a drawer in his room full of failures. Tests scored below 100% or unfinished homework or detention slips or a failed recipe (instead of the rotting dessert) or a bent wire from a messed up earring. He has messy clothes beyond saving and a shard of glass from a broken vase and a piece of plaster from where he punched a hole in his wall instead of in his brother. Resting right at the top are two pictures still in their frames: Alvar, his traitor of a brother... and Keefe. Lost to him because he wasn't good enough. Again. As always. As the drawer proves.
Headcanon D: unrealistic, but I will disregard canon about it because I reject canon reality and substitute my own.
My silly boy is in homosexual love with Keefe. He has a vase full of roses that he replaces every time they wilt. Hoping that someday he'll have the courage to send them to him. They're always there if he finds his gay little heart again.

In a shocking turn of events Learn My Lesson has been my favorite of the series so far.
I went in hating Hades to ending up misty eyed because of him and Meg finally communicating and being the POWER COUPLE I deserve. God damn him.
Tumblr media
Also the ages?? Meg being 33-36 (it implies both in the book so the time line is a little muddy) was a breath of fresh fucking air and I related to her A LOT. Hades is roughly 45-50 from what I can figure out. And it explicitly said that Hercules was 25. You mean not everyone is 19 and they are adults and dealing with all of this and still being sexy and not with one foot in the grave because their "youth" is gone??? Whaaaaat.
I would read an entire series about the three of them.
I'm also in love with the fact that she threw the line "Is wonderboy here for real?" In there and I almost didn't catch it, it fit so perfectly.
Tumblr media
I WILL NEVER SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS THAN A LOVE TRIANGLE ENDING UP AS A THROUPLE EVER AGAIN.

It’s Mossy and I’m ready for death
Currently in the middle of my nutcracker tech week and I’m so done tbh
I’m VERY sleep deprived so I’ve had lots of strange kotlc ideas and you’re my fav acc so I’m here now
Fitz is a rat. Just a rat. In disguise.
Anyways bye ig
-Mossy/Kotlc-anon
mossy the chaos you bring to my blog is unlike any other. I hope you did not die during your nutcracker tech week and that it went well!! i didn't check when you sent this before I started answering, but I'm assuming it's passed. I also hope you've gotten some sleep!! There's often that drive when you're in the middle of something like "just gotta get to the end and then I'll take care of myself" so if that's kinda the vibe it was then I hope you have taken care of yourself. If not, then do it!! Drink water, grab a snack, go to bed early tonight, whatever you need to do
and thank you for the compliment!! I don't really know how to respond but that's very sweet and I appreciate it a lot <33
but onto that idea of yours...what kind of rat are we talking about. is this the kind of well behaved rat that you could have for a pet and carry around on your shoulder and pet and hang out with. A polite rat that keeps clean and loves you. Or is Fitz a deranged rat you'd find in the dumpster of a Denny's spreading the black plague? Because those are two very different energies and i don't know which one we're going for here.
okay slightly unrelated tangent but I never understand where the "in disguise" part of making characters into animals comes from. Like I think the use of it came alongside like two children in a trenchcoat disguised as an entire adult because it's the kind of disguise that can kinda be pulled off. but for all the other animals?? how?? are they in disgiuse?? because fitz is a rat there is no conceivable way for him to pass as a human which is what the "in disguise" implies yet it's used as a blanket statement for any and all animals pretending to be human despite the incredible differences that would affect their ability to be in disguise. sorry for that it's just something that's always confused me
I propose that in order to properly use the phrase "in disguise" the human we and the keeper world know as Fitz (or wonderboy if you're dex) is actually a machine. The real fitz, an unstable rat, is living in its head (where there is no brain) and piloting said machine to pass as a human and not a rat in a giant metal suit.
I do not know what inspired this idea in you but I have so many questions. Well I always do but rat!fitz just confuses me in a way I cannot describe but also I love it. I hope he enjoys his little rat days in machine fitz's cranial cavity.

flynn from jatp? or fitz from kotlc?
hi anon!! thank you for the ask! and ill do both for you <3
okay first flynn: 
Sexuality headcanon: LESBIAN also,,,,,,, *rubs my aspec hands all over this*.... demiromantic flynn?? like 👀👀 what an idea....
also it doesn't ask for gender but ill give it anyway she/they nonbinary flynn so true
Favorite ship(s): okay... okay don't hate me but i don't really think about ships that much like yes flarrie is cool and i like it and julynn is soooo good i mean i wrote a fic for it so i guess those would be my top ships but also friendship is like my first thought lmao
Brotp: hmm double trouble is obviously best friendship flynn and julie RIGHTS but also,,,,,, i think flynn should be best friends with kayla,,, like as a treat they should collab and perform  together at least once... no reason i just think they would get along swell <3
Notp: really flynn with any guy but flynn x reggie really gets me going cause it seems like you're just pairing the two best friends together with no backing up like? do people in a friend group NEED to all be paired up? idk it just grinds my gears lmao
A random headcanon: flynn can do acrobatics! one of the things julie and carrie and flynn were put in when they were young was gymnastics! julie didn’t like it that much so she quit and carrie got bored but flynn loves it!! their proudest accomplishment from gymnastics is that they can walk on their hands and she does it all the time at double trouble sleepovers <3
General opinion: love her!!!!! they ARE the moment they're everything to me shes literally one of my comfort characters their personality her voice her outfits like they!!!!
moving on to fitzy boy!! 
Sexuality headcanon: biromantic demisexual fitz so true 
Favorite ship(s): detz <3 and sofitz <3 
Brotp: fitz & biana!! siblings!!! i love them and it is a crime we did not get fun sibling shenanigans between the two of them in the books
Notp: 😶😶 uhhh i don't really hate any of these ships but uh tam x fitz, linh x fitz, and marella x fitz are ships i just tend to avoid
A random headcanon: at foxfire fitz had a record of never having to go to the nurse’s office regardless of what happened (nosebleed? few minutes in the bathroom and he’s fine.. feeling sick? just takes a quick breather outside and he’s better!) because he’s stubborn like that (and it really helps boost his perfect Wonderboy image)... and then sophie came and blew that streak into smithereens... it was worth it for her though <3 also! fitz loves peanuts <3
General opinion: he!!!!! i just love him so much and he’s come so far his growth is literally just >> and he tries!! he loves his friends!! i adore him <33
send me a character!

Send Me A Number
So I’ve been struggling through a bit of writers block and I decided that to get through it, I will have you guys send me a number with a pairing (be it romantic or platonic)! I will do my best to fulfill your request and incorporate the dialogue. I hope you all enjoy this and I can't wait to fulfill your requests!
1. "Put the knife down."
2. "Everything here can kill you, but I can do it the most efficiently."
3. "I hate everything about you."
4. "Wait, so your saying all I have to do is get rid of everyone on this planet for us to be together?"
5. "I can't feel my legs."
6. "Is there something your not telling me?"
7. "It's better to be held than holding on."
8. "If you love me let me go."
9. "Do I perhaps like you?"
10. "Tell me a lie."
11. "Can you tell me a story?"
12. "How many have we murdered?"
13. "So this is heartache."
14. “Don’t look at me like that and then feign innocence.”
15. “People like me aren’t supposed to have someone like you, I think fate was being harsh on you.”
16. "Waking up with a dagger pointed at your throat is exactly as terrifying as you'd think it is."
17. "You wanna fucking go, punk!"
18. "She's not just some girl!"
19. "Get away from him/her before I break every bone in your body."
20. "Are you... trying to flirt with me?"
21.  "You don't look so bad yourself."
22. "Just relax, I'll wash your hair for you."
23. "Shooting star, make a wish."
24. "Get out of here. Now!"
25. "I just want this to end."
26. "If I smile with my teeth, I think I'd be live me."
27. "You're a wave of a dream."
28. "Everything was fine, until you came around."
29. "Stop being so cute. You're very dangerous right now."
30. "If we are not from the same world, I will find you."
31. "I'm not naive, innocent, and nice like the character you drew."
32. " It really hurts me whenever you say my name like that."
33. “He understands animals better than he understands the words of people.”
34. “I’m a damsel, I’m in distress, I can handle this. Have a nice day.”
35. "Congratulations Wonderboy."
36. Send your own dialogue.
If there are questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I will gladly answer them.

“Good doesn’t matter sometimes.” A UFC 243 Preview
Joey
September 30th
You ever have a show that's kind of not good but it also kind of doesn't matter? BEHOLD UFC 243! This card is....not good. It also doesn’t really even matter if it is or isn’t good. While UFC 242 was not "good" on paper, it at least featured a lot of fights in a good division. This is a lower level ESPN+ card without those top two fights and with Holm-Rocky off. Thankfully cards are judged as a whole and so Israel Adesanya-Robert Whittaker and Daniel Hooker-Al Iaquinta really do buoy it up to moderately acceptable level. IF ANYTHING, it doesn't matter. Really truthfully it doesn't matter. This show is all about the scene and the story of Australia getting its second ever stadium show headlined by an Aussie and a Kiwi in a major main event. It's a moment in time and sports are all about moments. The UFC has done little to promote this (or boost the card up) mostly because they've already sold close to 40,000 tickets with a week to go. Also I think they realized that Robert Whittaker is abysmal at fight promotion and there's not much you can do with him. Either way we got plenty to talk about here including a killer title unification bout.
Fights: 11
Debuts: Bruno Silva, Brad Riddell, Jamie Mullarkey, Zarah Fairn Dos Santos, Maki Pitolo, Justin Tafa, Yorgan de Castro
Fight Changes/Injury Cancellations: 2 (Holly Holm vs Rocky Pennington CANCELLED/Max Holloway vs Alexander Volkanovski CANCELLED)

Twelve Precarious Ponderings
1- Is this fight a story of overly rested vs overworked? Robert Whittaker since 2017 has had three fights. Since July of 2018, he's had two fights. He's had a lot of injuries but what's more he's had a lot of tough fights. Of his last five fights, the easiest fight was a pretty grueling fifteen minute affair with Rafael Natal. He had a one round firefight with Derek Brunson, a pretty taxing yet dominant win over Jacare and then the two violent wars with Yoel Romero that went the full distance. I am going to believe that no matter how long you get to recover, a guy simply can't spend 50 minutes trading heat with Yoel Romero and come out unscathed. On the other hand, Israel Adesanya basically got a crash course in MMA in the UFC. He learned on the job while defeating legitimate serious competition like Derek Brunson, Brad Tavares and Anderson Silva. Including his debut in February of 2018, he's fought six times and while most of those fights could be categorized as walkthroughs, his last fight vs Kelvin Gastelum featured him hurt and knocked down for the first time in his UFC career. To his credit, he came back with one of the best fifth round performances in MMA history when he knocked Gastelum around for about five minutes including folding him up on two different occasions. That said this is a heavy workload for a guy with an extensive kickboxing history plus coming off his first seriously exhausting fight. Adesanya has not taken a lot of damage to this point but cage time is cage time. Whittaker has fought seldom but when he has been, they've been pretty violent. Is Whittaker underprepared or is Adesanya overworked?
2- Adesanya tends to be pretty consistent throughout a fight but his two UFC main events that went five rounds suggest that he's REAL tough to get going against in rounds 3-5. The fact that Gastelum had him in bad straights in the fourth round is really more of a testament to how great Kelvin Gastelum is than anything else. Whittaker is hard to gauge because he tore his knee up pretty badly in the first round vs Romero but in most of his fights, he's a pretty great starter who finishes well in the third round. He's got great takedown defense, timely takedowns of his own when he needs them and he more often than not keeps a consistent offensive pace despite throwing A LOT of heat. As such assuming Adesanya doesn't catch Whittaker cold (a problem that stymied him vs the likes of Wonderboy and Brunson), we should get a pretty fun chess match between the most twitched up 185 lber in Adesanya and the guy with the most consistent kicking game output in Whittaker.
3- How long will it take Adesanya to go from fighting a dwarf at 185 lbs to Whittaker who has a bit more of your basic 185 lber build?
4- One thing Robert Whittaker has struggled with is when guys who are tick faster than him succeed in closing the space with offense. Yoel Romero and Derek Brunson went plum loco to get inside offensively and when Whittaker is blitzed, he has a real hard time defensively getting out of the way of the wild stuff. He's also a sucker for an overhand right. I imagine he knows this and whenever he gets a sense Adesanya is about to close the distance with his hands, a takedown attempt is coming.
5- Is Dan Hooker the official most violent man at 155 lbs now? I think he's had a finish in every fight he's had since going up in weight to 155 lbs in the UFC.
6- How many more fights do we have Al Iaquinta for before we start hearing about his contract and he takes off on us again? Enjoy dude while we got him.
7- Who is going to be the crowd favorite in the main event?
8- Two Australians with similar storylines on this card are in need of a win. The first is Tai Tuavasa. The UFC's Mark Hunt protege got off to a hot start in his UFC career, joining elite company (no, really. Guys like JDS and Cain) with back to back finish wins in his first two UFC fights. From there? He got some of his weaknesses checked vs Andrei Arlovski. He still rallied, buckled down and outworked Arlovski down the stretch en route to a decision win. From there he took on JDS who survived a scare before finishing Tuavasa in Australia in the second round. No biggie! Everybody loses to JDS unless you're super elite. That said, we started to notice more and more questionable things about Tuavasa. His training seemed somewhat limited and he seemed to really lack a Plan B if his blitz and clinch strategy didn't work out. The problems continued against Blagoy Ivanov who seemingly just stalled Tai out on offense and did just enough offensively to snag a decision. Tuavasa is in a real do or die scenario with Sergey Spivak in what seems like a real serious showcase fight. For Megan Anderson? I guess I'm not sure what you can say. She was signed to fight Cyborg, got yanked from that fight for a variety of reasons, made her debut vs Holly Holm and got swamped on the ground. She rallied to beat Cat Zingano in a real weird fight where she incidentally swiped Zingano with a toenail  on a head kick and it seemed like we were all systems go on a Megan Anderson hype train again. Then she got Felicia Spencer and got absolutely steamrolled on the turf again. At this point, Anderson seems only capable of winning a fight on her terms and seems incapable of how to ensure she can dictate THOSE terms. She'll get a chance against debuting Zarah Fairn.
9- I know it'll be trendy to pretend he's no good but I'm still thinking Jake Matthews might have something to offer up at 170 lbs. I thought Rostem Akman, the world's hairiest man, had some good stuff to offer up vs Sergey Khandozhko  en route to a decision loss. If Matthews continues to have issues on the feet with guys who work the body, Akman figures to test some of that.
10- Dhiego Lima on a UFC PPV. Anything is possible in the year of our lord 2019.
11- NEW HWS ALERT! Yorgan de Castro and Justin Tafa make their debuts on the prelims and it's actually not a half bad fight. Yorgan is off DWCS where he smoked uber prospect Alton Meeks while Justin Tafa's the younger brother of a Glory HW kickboxer.
12- Curious to see what Brad Riddell looks like down 15 lbs in his UFC debut.

Clinton devoured half of it all by himself, and the next morning he wanted more. 'No one could find the cake,’ says Mesnier, who had a face-to-face with the distraught commander in chief.
