Has Austin ever accidentally hurt readers feelings? How did they work through it?
hi anon!
thank you for the ask!
to answer your question, yes!
austin has unfortunately hurt reader's feelings, and reader has accidentally hurt his at times too. though usually their main way to work things through is to take some time apart to cool down and then come together after to talk out a resolution.
here is an example of a time austin accidentally hurt reader's feelings during the time they'd just moved into their first place together:
Tumblr media
“ Hey.” You knocked on the door seal of Austin’s office where he was head deep into a book surrounding the WWII history of pilots. He was doing major background work for his role of Major Gale Clevens and you were excited to see him diving back into work after both Elvis wrapping, and the scare he gave you during his hospital stay.
You could see the papers littered everywhere and the empty coffee pot on a nearby table. “ I know you said to let you know when dinner was finished, and I’m done. I made that lasagna soup recipe I was telling you about from tik-tok. Why don’t you take a break and come have a bite, babe.” 
He didn’t bother looking up from the pages, “ In a minute honey.” He muttered. 
Frowning you couldn’t help but feel worried since he’d told you the same thing at lunch and then later when you’d offered him a snack. He hadn’t been out of this room all day and you knew his body  needed something more to run off of than hours old coffee.
You stepped inside closer, “ You know you said that earlier, baby. And I just think a little break to re-fuel would be good.” 
Again he didn’t look up, “ I said in a minute sweetheart, now please.” He attempted to dismiss you.
Still you weren’t satisfied, “ Aus I know but-
“ Dammit, Y/N!  I said in a minute! I am a grown ass man and I’ll eat something when I’m ready.  ” He snapped, looking up at you.
A lump quickly formed in your throat and you quickly exited the room, slamming the door behind you and ignoring his calls after you. You could feel tears threatening to spill out your eyes. In a split decision you decided to get some air, grabbing your bag and picking up a disoriented Magnus fast to go out the door.
For a while you’d just driven around, let the windows down to take in the breeze of the setting sky, and just allowed your mind to blank for awhile.
You then stopped and impulsively got a honey matcha for you and pup-cup for Mags at a little coffee place you'd come to like , went into Target and walked out with an undisclosable amount of body products, and then had a good cry in said Target parking lot.
You and Austin has only been living together officially for six weeks, but the last two had proven to be a bit rougher on your relationship. It was evident that the two of you were still getting use to learning how to share a space 24/7 and find balance in togetherness and your respective solitudes.
By the time you’d pulled back into the garage of the loft, you’d walked into the door and found Austin sitting with his hands in his lap in the chair facing the doorway with a grave look on his face. “ Where’d you go? Without this.” He held up your phone.
In your haze you must have left it, “ Nowhere in particular. Just ran a few errands, is all. Needed some time to myself.” 
He nodded, “ Do you have a minute? “
You walked past him, “ For you to yell or snap at me. No, not really. I’m heading up to shower and then I’m going to bed.” 
He sighed, “ I’m not going to snap or yell at you, baby. I just need a minute to apologize.” He followed you toward the stairs.
Still you didn’t stop your ascent, “ Y/N..please don’t walk away. Just give me a minute.” He pleaded.
Stopping halfway up, you turn around and drop the bags on the stairs to stop and sit, “ Here you go. Here’s your minute.” 
Running a hand through his hair he started, “ First off, I wanna say that I apologize for snapping at you, honey. I didn’t mean it and I surely didn’t mean to make you cry.  It’s not an excuse but I think I’m still getting used to having someone around all the time that calls me out on my bad habits and wants to take care of me. Been awhile since I’ve lived with someone else and I'm used to obsessing over my work alone.” 
You nodded, “ I understand.” 
“ Good. Now, second, I’m gonna ask that if the next time we unfortunately have a moment, which we will have more tough moments together since we’re stuck with each other forever, I need you to take your phone. Not so you can pick up my twenty phone calls trying to apologize, but because the world is crazy and in case of an emergency, honey. You need your phone, okay.” You could hear a slight strain to his voice. 
You felt a tad bad knowing he probably got a bit nervous when you’d left it, he was a big stickler on you being safe. 
“ Okay.” You whispered, wiping tears from your eyes.
Austin then made his way to meet you on the steps and pull you up into his arms, “ I’m sorry, honey. Daddy’s sorry. You were just trying to take care of me and I snapped. I apologize. You’re so considerate always. And it doesn’t go unappreciated.” He kissed your forehead and comforted you as you let out little sniffles. 
" You hurt my feelings, babe." You whispered.
He sighed, " I know, mama. I'm sorry. Don't want anyone making my best girl cry. Even me."
“ I’ve been a mean Baboo.” He joked in an attempt to get you to laugh.
And you did, “ Yeah you have. “ You giggled. “ Don’t let it happen again, buddy. Or I’ll have to stick my ferocious guard dog on you.” You referenced Magnus who was passed out in the living room corner from his treat, knowing full well all he was capable of was licking someone to death.
“ Noted.” Austin laughed, holding you tighter. " Now, come on so I can warm up this delicious soup I keep hearing about. I'm excited."

Belgium on the left, Germany on the right.
Tumblr media
An iconic East African duel rages on today! Askaris were native soldiers of East Africa recruited by the various factions of WWI. Some of their enlistment reasons may include a good pay, but rarely a specific allegiance to the country they were serving under.
On the left, an early war soldier from the Belgian Force Publique in a lighter weight uniform, an older version than the one commonly worn which is much more alike their enemies' uniform, surveys the field. His fez cover would normally be blue, but they quickly bleached in the sun.
On the right, a soldier from the German Schutztruppen as depicted on a propaganda postcard. These men, led by the brilliant General Von Lettow, were trained to drag battles on the African front out as long as possible to force the Allies to divert forces from the Western front.

A little chart on how i think the venom from the cobra could work and the side effects of it:
Askari: Yes, i think his dark sclera is consequence of the venom of a cobra. But it was because Askari was curious and wanted to know if the Evil Lions he and his Guard fought were acting that way because of the bite on their eyes or the venom could act in any part of the body. His little experiments ended up in him almost getting blind by being spit in the eye by a spitting cobra. But with that he felt the irritation and anger he have seen the Evil Lions show, in a less meassure. So he concluded that the attack of a cobra needed to be close to the head to start messing with a lion's head.
Ayubu "Strange Lion": Since he wasnt healed, his right eye ended up infected, his eye sclera turning a dark read. And while he showed irritation and anger, it wasnt's an uncontrollable thirst for killing like the Evil Lions had. In fact, he was very much in control of his emotions. He didnt know at the moment, but the amount of venom injected helped him, since cobras can control how much venom to release. When Naja, the cobra that we see with him explain this, Ayubu forms a plan.
Askari II/Scar: While Scar was partially healed by the mjuzi at the time, the venom's effect on his psyque persisted. His left eye showed a little change on his sclera as a sign of it.
Kion: Only lion to be fully healed of the side effects of the venom, with the conclusion that while the venom can trigger awful bad emotions, working on them with trials in the Tree of Life (aka therapy) is how the full healing can be achieved.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A little disclamer here that i like the idea of the venom causing these side effects, but both Scar and Ayubu did what they did because they already felt those emotions. The venom was not a problem and is not an excuse. Askari began the misconception and prejudice against the cobras without learning completly how it all worked.

I seen your ask/prompt message!
I gotchu girl!
My ask is how many nicknames do reader and austin have for each other?!
They're so cute! I love themmmm!
Tumblr media
Summary: Austin puts in a rather odd request that leads to a cute exchange of information.
* This installment directly follows the events after Special*
Contents: LOTS OF FLUFF. Little tension. My two favorite goofballs being adorable.
A/N: Hi Anon! I hope you’re well! Thank you so much for the ask. I adore them too 🫠✨I hope you like this!
P.S Feel free to always comment, reblog, and send me a ask/letter!
———
Once the two of you were inside you greeted a happy Magnus who wagged and snorted at the sight of his two favorite humans.
Tossing your gear to the side you made your way to the kitchen to grab all of the needed ingredients to make your killer three cheese blend grilled cheese for the both of you.
You had finished it up pretty quickly while Austin was in the living room picking his choice of movie.
Turned out he wanted to watch the nineteen ninety nine version of Romeo and Juliet, which also happened to be the version BAZ directed.
“ A throwback. I remember when this came out. My sister and her friends went to go see it in theaters. My mom took them.” He recalled as you set the plates of grilled cheese and chips on the coffee table.
“ Thank you, baby. “ Austin pressed a kiss to the temple when you finally sat down.
You mumbled a quick “ You’re welcome.” Before snuggling up into his chest just enough so you both could still comfortably devour your food.
It wasn’t until you’d gotten to the part of Mercuatio’s long and terribly drawn out death scene that Austin was the first to speak.
“ Hey.” He spoke.
“ Hmm?” You sleepily hummed.
“ This may sound weird….” He started, “ But I didn’t like the way you said my name earlier. And I’m putting in the request for you to actually never say it ever again.” He finished pushing his face into your neck.
Your eyebrows rose and a giggle escaped you, “ Why? That’s your name. Admittedly, I know that it may have come off harsh that time when I said it. I’m sorry. But I like your name, Austin. And I like saying it....and moaning it.” You coyly squeezed in the last part that made him give a toothy smile.
“ Yeah it was and you only do that when I’m in trouble or you’re annoyed. Always sounds sharp when you say it. Doesn’t sound all warm and sweet like when you call me my other names.”
“ Your other names?. Like what? What other names do you have? “ Your laughter coated in curiosity.
Austin’s cheeks began turning a rosy color and his lips upturned at the corners,
“ You know. I’m Aus, babe, or baby, honey-dew, sometimes I’m poppa, I've been called Aussie poo on occasion, Sweet Baboo is pretty standard, Mr. Handsome," He began while you listened in fascination.
"Oh! I’m plant-bae , Sexy Sam, Sir peanut butter, or your most recent favorite…I’m your googly bear.” He listed off all the ridiculous pet names you’d come up with over the last couple months, and it may you smile and laugh so hard.
Truth be told you didn’t know you’d given him that many, but it was too adorable seeing him blush while talking about it.
You could tell he liked them.
“ I see. And out of all of these names.” You added on, “ Which one is your preference to be called? “
“ Hmm.” He thought for a second and then pulled a name, “ I dunno’. I guess I just really like it when you call me, babe.” He confessed. " Basic I know. But it sounds good to me the way it rolls so easily off your tongue. You say it with this feeling of real endearment behind it.” He added, “ I love that.”
“ Awe, BABE.” You goofed grabbing his face and leaned up to plant a fat giggly kiss on his cheek.
“ What about me? What are your nicknames for me?
“ Let’s see. Well, first and foremost you know you're baby. You’re babe too. You’re my sugar mama, sweetheart, sweet thighs.” He said reaching his hand to give your partially exposed thighs a squeeze. You instantly felt tingles.
“ You’re also my baby-girl, honey, madame peach, the wiggly monster, lady jelly, light of my life, my schmoopsie-poo. “ He tickled your sides.
“ But above all else, you're my best girl.” He finished by leaning down and pressing a kiss to your lips.
Heat pooled to your cheeks, “ Really?! I’m your best girl.” You coyly teased.
Austin smiled, “ Really. You’re my best girl. You’ll always be my best girl. You know that.” He leaned his face to hover by yours.
“ You sure? No one else? Just me? “ Even though when you asked you were still teasing, you secretly knew that part of you wasn’t.
Though you knew Austin’s nature and morals made you positive he wouldn’t allow himself to step out on you and break your heart that way. You still couldn’t shake the feeling sometimes that he could go out and find someone more appealing or better suited for him. That he was too good for you.
As if he could hear the gears turning in your mind he leaned down and placed a long sweet and semi- sloppy kiss to your lips. You had to contain yourself a bit when you felt his hand come to rest at the back of your neck and his thumb rub there.
In return yours traveled to his hips to pull him closer to you.
You felt him slightly groan and then pull away from you so that your faces were mere inches away from each other. “ No else. Just you. Repeat it.” He added a edge to the tone of his voice.
“ Say it baby. Tell me.” He encouraged.
You had to find the air to come in your lungs so you could speak, “ No else.” You breathed, “ Just me.”
He smiled rubbing your cheek, “ That’s right. Only you.“

Indochina on the left, Belgium on the right.
Tumblr media
Our Indochinese riflemen return! Though they wore many uniforms, they are back here with the most characteristic one of WW1, borrowed from the African army and its mustard colour. They however kept their salacco hat, protected by a beige fabric to cover its colours and bearing the metallic anchor of the colonial troops. They wear the standard leather equipment set of the French army and carry the special M1902 'Indochinese' rifle which was made shorter than the standard issues, as Indochinese soldiers were on average shorter than a metropolitan Frenchman.
Cue the Belgian Askari, this time in a more standard uniform as well, and making them look quite like their German rivals. Wearing British web equipment, he also sports a cloth badge on his fez cover which corresponded to different units but unfortunately, History lost its particular assignation.

Artillerie-Beobachtungsstand im Rufiji-Delta.
Tumblr media
the picture shows German troops like Askaris in German East Africa during World War 1. it is an artillery observation post in the Rufiji Delta. The sailor on the picture probably comes from the SMS Königsberg but only my guess is because in the 1 World War sailors from this ship were integrated into the troops of Paul Lettow-Vorbeck.
