OMG IM IN LOVE WITH UR JESS MARIANO FICCS!! can i request a jess mariano x reader? the reader is a naturally loud and bubbly person. reader is talking to jess abt something they're excited abt, but realize that theyve been talking the entire time and jess hasnt said anything, reader automatically shuts down and stops themselves bc they're always told that theyre too loud and talk to much. i need the comfort fics😢😢 <3
jess assures you when you're insecure.
pairings: jess mariano x reader
words: 466
warning(s): insecurity ( r thinks they talk too much )
you had been mid-rant, jess fresh on break with a tea towel over his shoulder and hair tousled from the aftermath of mid-afternoon rush in luke’s café. when you had entered, the chaos of people leaving, jess breathed a sigh of relief and his uncle granted him his break.
you were talking about your long day at college – filled with dramatic students and unsympathetic professors, jess was sitting across from you, head perched on his palm staring at you.
“… i didn’t do one of the readings because i used that time to see you instead, god forbid i have a social life because he didn’t care… he just looked right at me and said that i should’ve known the answer.”
jess quirks a smile, a simple ‘how was your day?’ turning into a ramble that he didn’t dare interrupt. he knew you were interested in him, you just needed to offload and then you’d ask how his day was – even though his was significantly more boring than yours.
“anyways, i met paris for a bit during our free periods – she drove down and we grabbed some lunch. so that made me feel better, oh they had the best black coffee! paris loved it! i should take you sometime-”
you take notice into how jess is staring at you, your energy yields as you take it for boredom rather than admiration, the relationship was still fairly new in your defence.
“i would love that, baby,” jess replies.
your eyebrows furrow, your finger that previously runs across jess’ free palm stops. jess matches your expression, hand cupping yours with a small, “what’s just happened?” confused by the sudden silence and change of energy.
“no, sorry, was just rambling. i haven’t even asked you how your day was…” you trail off, looking down to your hands to avoid eye contact in case you might cry. jess tries to meet your gaze, head lobbing down, “it’s okay, i like listening to you talk.”
you look at him, eyes wide and confused, “you do?” jess’ heart throbs in his chest, unsure if you’ve been called out on being talkative or upbeat before, but a topic he’ll bring up another time. “’course, baby.”
your biting your lip anxiously, the need to kiss him very much sitting in your heart, if only you weren’t in the company of small-town eyes – babette sitting across the room. “how was your day?” you ask jess, smiling happily when he takes both your hands in his.
“alright, kirk saying this, dean annoying the living the hell outta me. but tell me more about the café. we could go on friday after your college class, yeah?”
you couldn’t help following your heart in leaning over and kissing jess, even if it was only for a few seconds.

Kinktober 7
NSFW prompt: virginity
Jinx X Akali
It was bound to happen. They both had wanted it for a while now. But they also feared it due to their inexperience. Jinx even had considered asking Vi, but that would entail that her sister and that piltie had a sex life and she'd rather not think about that. Prancing into Babette's and demanding answers at gunpoint had seemed too much, even for her. So instead she had stolen an anatomy book and a sapphic romance novel from the Kiramman library and prayed to whoever listened that theoretical knowledge would be enough.
Akali had tried to pester some information out of Irelia who,instead of giving her some kind of routine she could practice, just had said that every body was different and she'd have to find out what Jinx liked. She had found a scroll about how to seduce a woman, but that had been mostly written for men.
They were laying in Jinx's bed, legs entwined, clothes long discarded. Hands were everywhere on each other's bodies, but there was still this one step to be gone.
When their lips disconnected for some air, Akali broke the unspoken subject "You ever done this before?"
Jinx halted and looked away blushing "No… I… never"
"Hey, it's okay, me neither" She carefully moved her lover's face to look into her eyes. "But I… you know… I.. I'd like to try something… on you, if you'd let me. You know, just see if you'd like it and if you don't it's okay and we'll try something else…"
"I trust you" Jinx broke through Akali's rambling. "I trust you and I'd like you to do whatever you want… to me." She added. She took a deep breath and laid on her back, looking over at her lover "I'm all yours." She willed her body to be as still as possible.
Akali took in the sight offered to her. Jinx was every aspect of beautiful she knew. She let her eyes roam free, unashamed. Jinx liked the attention, even if she was blushing right now.
The brunette took a shuddering breath. She could do this, this couldn't be that hard.
"You just lay back and relax, ok? Let me take care of you. If anything feels off you tell me alright?"
"Mmhmm" Jinx nodded.
Her lover took another measured breath and finally moved in closer. She laid back down beside Jinx and let her hand rest on her cheek.
"I love you."
A kiss "And I want to show you"
Her hand started wandering down. "I want to make you feel good" until it reached her breast.
She put her forehead on the bluenette's and carefully started playing with her perky nipple. Her ministrations pulled sweet little noises out of the recipient. Continuing her touches Akali began to kiss a slow line from Jinx' s jaw down her throat, following the path of her hand, only to go down to the neglected breast. She lapped at the second nipple and lightly sucked. Jinx arched her back to get closer to the sensation, her mind being caught up in the sensory input.
Her mouth still engaged, her hand started moving lower again, lightly skimming the plains of cloud tattooed abdomen to the tuft of cropped blue hair. She looked up, as for permission. She kept the eye contact and slowly glided between already parted legs.
Pink eyes fixated on red, Jinx breath caught in her throat when she felt Akali's fingers between her folds. Her body was ready, providing enough wetness for the friction to be enjoyable. Yet this was like nothing she had ever felt before. Kali's exploring fingers left fire in their path and her touch felt like too much and not enough at the same time. When those nimble fingers grazed her clit for the first time, she tried to chase the sensation.
As if she was feeling her need, the motion was repeated. Her breaths turned into high pitched whines.
"Is this… good?"
"Don't… please… don't stop"
She kept her thumb caressing the clit and carefully pushed a finger into her wet core.
Jinx felt like there was a fire inside her, kindled by Akali's touches. It kept growing until orgasm took her by surprise. She cried her lover's name while her whole body convulsed and her world burst into stars.
Akali stopped and started rubbing soothing circles into her girlfriend's hip instead.
The bluenette turned to her lover, intending to return the bliss, in her own way. She turned both of them and went to straddle her lover.
Akali yelped, looking up at her with wide eyes.
"Do you trust me too?"
"I… yeah, of course I do"
"Then relax now. I want you to have some, too"
She leaned over and planted a soft kiss on Kali's lips that turned into a plethora of kisses along her jaw to her pulse. Her hands cupped supple breasts from below, while thumbs and indexes lightly pinched both nipples.
Akali's eyes wanted to roll back and close, but she forced them open to keep looking at the loving determination on her love's face.
The upper woman shifted down to make room for her hand, which had left its place to be replaced by her tongue.
Patience wasn't her game, even if she tried to go as slow as possible. She carded through well groomed dark hair and let a finger drop into wet folds. Curious movements lead her to the hardened nub that felt already throbbing to Kali. She drew some circles around it and then boldly swept her finger over it.
The ninja felt like losing it. She wanted to push that clever hand in and away, beg for more and for her to stop. She closed her eyes and let Jinx have her way with her body. This was already more than she had ever felt touching herself.
She felt movement between her legs, like a giant cat laying down and then there was a new sensation. It was warm and wet and strong. Her eyes shot open to see Jinx. Her mouth was pressed onto Akalis core while her tongue mapped her body out.
She learned fast that flicking her tongue on her clit brought the loudest moans out of her girlfriend. Those ministrations turned to sucking as she inserted a finger. She moved it deliberately careful, curled this way and that, to see which one got the best reaction. When she found the spot, she abused it with every stroke.
Akali saw white, then all colors at once when she came, her body curling from head to toe. Jinx stilled her hand and looked up.
Akali pulled her up to her face to give her a wild and passionate kiss. She wrapped herself around the lithe frame of her love.
"I love you so so much"
"I love you too, just as much"

bio warning: mental illness, death
Jean-Baptiste Facilier doesn't know a lot about his mother other than she was the one who named him, and that shortly after his birth, she was admitted to an asylum. According to his aunt Dorothy, she always babbled about how a Shadow Man was coming to take her baby away. Shortly after she was admitted, she died of unknown reasons in the hospital. So he never really got the chance to know her for himself. Though aside from all of that, he had a normal childhood. His aunt Dorothy gave him an education from home and taught him many things, ranging from sewing and arithmatic to dance and reading. He never really had questions about his father until he entered his teen years. His aunt had never met the man, and the only clue he had to go on was his given last name. It had to belong to his father right.
When JB was seventeen, he finally went out to seek his father, which he did. He didn't quite like the man his father was, but he wasn't surprised to see how dastardly the doctor was given the fact that he was absent through his life. Regardless he worked to build a relationship with his father and his half-sister, Calliope. As it turns out, Calliope was pulling a con of her own against their father. Though Jean-Baptiste could see right through it, he wasn't about to blow the whistle on her. The doctor along with Calliope gladly taught him about the other side, before he disappeared once again into the night. All that remained were whispers in the streets of a shadow man. J wondered if maybe that was who his mother rambled about. Maybe she wasn't crazy after all. Maybe his father let JB find him.
It didn't take long for Jean-Baptiste to realize that he wanted to use his newfound skills to help people rather than trick and deceive. He received an education in medicine and used his skills along with the knowledge he gained to become a holistic healer. He decided to return to his father's old shop after his education only to find that his half-sister was now running it. He decided to take her up on an offer to work there with her. Using his skills to heal peoples' minds, bodies, and spirits.

can you talk on the beauty of good characters in stories, for the art faith media tag?
YES. Yes I can. What a lovely question to kick off my weekend!
Let's start with a few specific examples and then ramble on to generalities!
So I'm married to a Superman fan, which means Clark Kent is the first example to come to mind. The show Superman and Lois on the CW does a brilliant job of using his goodness to create conflict and drama without resorting to cheap squabbles. In this show, he's married with twin teenage sons, and now trying to balance saving the world with raising his boys (and also solve a mystery threatening Smallville). Good goals that are, to a degree, mutually exclusive, and the show's draw hinges on a good man trying to coordinate and problem solve and prioritize.
I'd characterize Babette of Babette's Feast as another good character. The high point of the film is the titular feast, an incredible dining experience that she sacrificially and joyfully creates for the villagers she lives with, who don't have the worldly experience to appreciate fully the symphony of taste she puts before them, but who are moved and changed by it.
Ezran (and Callum, Rayla, and others, but particularly Ezran) of The Dragon Prince is yet another. A young boy (perhaps 8?) who is heir to the throne is faced with an attack on his kingdom and the chance to do something that could reconcile the human and the magic lands. And he doesn't hesitate. Over and over, he makes hard choices to do what is right and good.
Ahsoka of The Clone Wars is my fourth examples. A young padawan who grows up in the midst of war, she fights increasingly for ideals and the people she loves, and eventually leaves the Jedi Order when they betray her.
What do all of these have in common? They all have strong moral compasses. They prioritize those in their lives over themselves, often at personal cost. They choose what is right and good and will benefit others even if it's hard.
The beauty of good characters is that we want them to win. If they win, those they love should win by extension. And if it's well written, we want those they love to win.
A well written story will use that conflict. In The Dragon Prince, Ezran faces a decision that, on the one hand, will require him to betray his own ideals and choose death for others, and on the other hand apparently gives the villain victory. We don't want to see this small boy choose something that will stain his soul, but we also don't want the villain to succeed!
We don't want Clark Kent's relationship with his sons to be broken, but also a bridge is collapsing and innocent people will die right now if he doesn't act.
We don't want Ahsoka to remain where trust is shattered, but we also don't want her to be alone and disgraced.
We want Babette to be happy, but we also don't want the sisters who took her in to be bereft...even if they're willing to let her go for her own sake.
These conflicting desires and goals can force us to examine what's truly good, and how we should prioritize good things. When do we prioritize family over others? If Superman said "every time," thousands would die.
When do we prioritize our beliefs and ideals over others? Which beliefs and ideals do we prioritize? Does Ezran choose not selecting death for others or ceding to a man who will choose death? What sacrifices can he make that will cause the least harm?
Bad characters, evil characters, can be enormous fun. The Dragon Prince has numerous examples of characters choosing and justifying morally harmful things, and their arcs are fascinating. The Clone Wars, too, has characters making choices that are ultimately wrong and damaging--sometimes with good intentions, sometimes with malicious.
But the beauty of good characters, to me, lies in their very struggle to do what is right and good. It lies in the recognition of higher morals, higher ideals, an objective Good. It lies in the fight against the shadow of darkness, the battle for very self and personhood in a world that tries to break everyone down to the same level of selfish cruelty. It lies in the reflection of our own struggles, amplified and dramatized, and in the affirmation that doing the right thing, fighting for the right thing, is good in and of itself.
That's really it, isn't it? The beauty of good characters is that they affirm our own fights for truth, justice, love, and peace.
I can name a hundred more good characters whom I love, but let's leave this here. We love good characters because they inspire good.

Hello👋👋👋 here is some Babette doodles
and also some lore ramblings from my priv twt (under readmore)
Thinks about how Babette's ECT affected her job in acting some directors started to refuse her roles or recast them as bc if the therapy she was just unable to focus like she used to and was just out of it
Or sometimes she would get frustrated and so irritated with herself that she'd be a little explosive like idk little things causing her to get upset idk how to explain but that's also a reason why directors and stuff stopped casting her and stuff [quote retweet of this tweet ->] THINKS ABT THIS AND /MAYBE/ her having the stereotype of a rich celebrity who is really mean be of how people would talk about how aggressive she could be sometimes and it staining her public reputation for a long time
I feel like it'll be the same with modelling since she couldn't really follow the directions as well as she could before the therapy
I think I’ve said before but, After the shock therapy the short term effects she experienced were fatigue, headaches, confusion, nausea and a long term effect was some long lasting/permanent memory loss (which maybe potentially I might have as the first thing that caused the eventual DuBeakley separation, no I will not elaborate)

Babette you’re such a loser for sending this anonymously while I’m sitting next to you. If you’re reading this and know me irl and are not babette you know the drill lmao
Anyway big love you
A fic I didn’t expect to write was the whumptober collection I was supposed to finish at the end of october but haven’t finished yet so that was a glorious attempt on my part. But it’s for a fandom I hadn’t written for before and I didn’t expect to ever actively engage in it so I surprised myself 🤷♀️

First off, thank you for existing and your Zaunfamily/omegaverse content gives me life!!!!
I just wanna ask, do the counselors/chembarons in this AU give Silco something like a gift basket filled with baby stuff during his pregnancies or throw him a surprise baby shower?
What is the weirdest food craving that Silco has ever had during any of his pregnancies? (If he did have any)
And during his pregnancy with Viktor, had Silco already moved in with Vander or did he move in after he realized he was pregnant?
(Also, not to be too angsty but did Vander ever doubt that it was his kid in Silco's tummy?)
Glad you're enjoying it. Putting a cut because I got rambling on some of these.
Do the counselors/chembarons in this AU give Silco something like a gift basket filled with baby stuff during his pregnancies or throw him a surprise baby shower?
In the main version of the verse I don't think so. When the babies are born the Counsellors don't even know who they are and the Chembarons are not really unified yet into a group that all answer to Silco(/Vander). That only starts to happen after they adopt the girls when they switch from trying to just revolt against Piltover into more turning Zaun into its own self-covered 'state'.
That's not to say none of them do because I think their ties to some of the Chembarons go back to before that period of time (Babette for example). But it's more likely just to be a small gift because Silco and Vander are doing things for them as well during that period with no idea of how important the two of them will become.
Now in the verse where Silco has another pregnancy after becoming Zaun Representative. The Councillors definitively give them gifts (it's the polite thing to do afterall) but they don't like him enough to want to have a baby shower. Chembarons are probably pretty similar, although in their defence baby showers probably aren't a big thing in Zaun culture generally, so why would they host one for effectively their boss? The presents are very much a trying to get in his good graces' thing.
What is the weirdest food craving that Silco has ever had during any of his pregnancies? (If he did have any)
He did have them. I just don't exactly know what they would be because I don't really know what the kind of food in Zaun/Piltover would be (other than probably a lot of seafood because Port Towns).
I feel like with either Claggor or Mylo (or both) he ends up craving something that’s very much Piltoven Cuisine. Which is firstly annoying to him because he doesn’t want to admit he likes the food of the enemy (and they are still very much enemies at that point). And secondly, a bit hard for them to get for him. Not to actually make mind you, half the cooks in Piltover are probably actually from Zaun they just have to find one, but to get the ingredients of especially in a timely fashion when he is craving it.
And during his pregnancy with Viktor, had Silco already moved in with Vander or did he move in after he realized he was pregnant?
He moved in after he realised he was pregnant. He was still living with his parents (although the kind of living with where they didn’t exactly care that he didn’t come home for the entire week of his heat) and I feel like Vander and Benzo were living together at the time. So it was after he realised he was pregnant that either they both moved into a new place or Benzo moved out or Silco just moved in with them both (all are equally possible).
(Also, not to be too angsty but did Vander ever doubt that it was his kid in Silco's tummy?)
The thing about omegaverse is that babies tend to be conceived around heats. So considering Vander had been there for basically the entirety of Silco’s heat (in Vander’s apartment as well where Silco started and ended his heat) means he can be pretty certain that the kid is his. Especially seeing the most effective way they have of knowing they are pregnant is when their heats stop so Silco was not pregnant before the heat and is pregnant before the next one (plus Viktor was “”a couple weeks early”” from a due date calculated from Silco’s heat, if he had of been conceived after then there would have been other clues because Viktor would have definitively been a premature baby and not just a little early but still fully cooked).

IM SCREAMING
So anyway I Love new Louis
Gonna go on a ramble for a moment now. I also Love that the show is dropping some of Lestats backstory (from his book) clearly much earlier. And how Louis is framing it as they actually became close friends first, before him suddenly finding out about the vampire thing and getting changed. As he says, he was seduced over time, and I enjoy watching it.
I think the change to a slow seduction of human BEFORE turning Louis fits well in the modern world of post human/vampire romance galore we are currently in, as there's more desire for that slow exploration in some ways. In another way, I think this initial relationship presentation screams the kind of tension of characters like Aziraphale/Crowley had in Good Omens. Oh the line "we are very good friends." In some show of the past, 10 or 20 years ago, that might be subtext but. Here it's absolutely loaded with meaning. Louis is narrating to make it clear he likes men, that he liked Lestat and felt seduced, and of course Louis's sister asking to meet Lestat mirrors her bringing her fiance to dinner the same night. These are all significantly large changes from the book, and yet I am enjoying that it aims to hit the sweet spot of mortal/immortal romance, of friends to lovers High tension (that so many 10 year ago shows capitalized on as subtext only but this show so thickly intensely is using for overt romance). So of course, it changes the feeling of their dynamic to very romance heavy (which like yeah it was but in the book Louis is initially grieving and depressed and that outweighs any other main feeling). As I've mentioned, I'm seeing this as an AU take where things may vastly diverge. And so i can see and appreciate this particular diversion, which appeals to a lot of more modern vampire genre trends then twists them back into the densely rich relationship Louis and Lestat originally had. So it adds this layer I think modern vampire romance often lacks of slow build tension, and very heavy tension as this is adults with many responsibilities and pains weighing on them - no longer teenagers in first love (but which Buffy did a bit, and which pingxie in dmbj actually appeals to me for similar reason).
And then also. The show brings some aspects or Louis from the book into deeper highlight than the old movie (even though of course some of Louis's backstory and initial time period are hugely changed). His close relationship wirh his sister is HERE, which I loved in the book and how he cared for her and stayed close to her even as a vampire (which may be the case in the show moving forward). How Paul was so important to Louis and someone Louis feels personally responsible for and intensely close to (which the old movie skipped). I also noticed the Freniere name drop with the sisters fiance! So one may expect at somr point Freniere is going to do something stupid, he may well have a sister Babette who Louis gets to know, and Freniere may well do something "cruel" which Lestat wants to hunt and kill him for. (While the old movie had Lestat as evil killer, its learned in later books he likes to kill humans who are killers, so given this show is mentioning some of Lestats family childhood and parents, it may well let the audience know this preference of Lestat with hunting much earlier than the books).
And then just. An interesting choice to me to keep Louis in the dark about Lestat being a vampire for a while. Just an interesting change to watch. So far I enjoy seeing all the unique sort of alternate ways these characters are being used. It does feel very much alternate universe, with a certain care to retain some portion of their core traits while seeing how changed setting/time period affects others.
Also the "I was going to St Louis, but it seems I was meant to go to the person not the place." Is sappy as all fuck but I kind of loved it
Anyway sjjsj as promised will be live blogging lol. I'm only 37 minutes in so do not spoil me ToT

I had something completely different planned for this weeks Monday Motivation (something about darker months and radio jingles - be happy I skipped out on it 😂), but I saw this set of illustrations and immediately knew I wanted to write something about it.
If you are someone that reads my rambles - I’m so sorry for them by the way - or perhaps read my mental health talks, I talk about love a lot. Because as someone who has not been with another person romantically, it is a big insecurity for me. And I talk about, because that is the only way I can get those thoughts out of my head.
But I know for a fact that every single human once thought they weren’t worthy of (a specific type of) love. Or that their struggles and baggage were too heavy for another person, so they stepped back.
And if that has been or is you, if you are like me and worry about those things - I want you to know that that piece of paper that little cute crab is holding is 100% the truth. You may not believe it now, I sure as hell don’t at the moment, but it will come. Because what is one thing that comes as easily as breathing? Love.
…I… uh… I completely forgot my point 😂 It is Monday after all.
Moving on, I am wishing you a great week filled with tiny moments of love. Someone saying I love you (I LOVE YOUUUU < me yelling this from my bed), a pet giving you a kiss, someone sending you a ‘saw this and thought of you’ message, doing something self care related, a rainbow after a rainy morning, drinking your favorite drink and it being the perfect temperature. What else? You let me know 🥰
It is time for this hopeless romantic to go and start her day, but not before I tell you that whenever you doubt if you are lovable or if someone is capable of loving you - just know that there is a girl in Amsterdam who loves you to the moon and back 🧡✨
babette hiiiii xx I will never not read your rambles and thoughts because, really, they always do hide something to think about and maybe even re-consider some stuff.
apologies for answering your ask on a thursday morning but work has been crazy this week and it's my day off today so I got the chance to spent some time on Tumblr! I hope your week has been lovely so far and HAPPY RACE WEEK AS WELL!!! It's Singapore this week and even though I will not get the chance to see the whole race it's one of my favourites on the calendar 🥰
so, since it's almost the weekend I'm gonna say have a great great weekend xx

I had something completely different planned for this weeks Monday Motivation (something about darker months and radio jingles - be happy I skipped out on it 😂), but I saw this set of illustrations and immediately knew I wanted to write something about it.
If you are someone that reads my rambles - I’m so sorry for them by the way - or perhaps read my mental health talks, I talk about love a lot. Because as someone who has not been with another person romantically, it is a big insecurity for me. And I talk about, because that is the only way I can get those thoughts out of my head.
But I know for a fact that every single human once thought they weren’t worthy of (a specific type of) love. Or that their struggles and baggage were too heavy for another person, so they stepped back.
And if that has been or is you, if you are like me and worry about those things - I want you to know that that piece of paper that little cute crab is holding is 100% the truth. You may not believe it now, I sure as hell don’t at the moment, but it will come. Because what is one thing that comes as easily as breathing? Love.
…I… uh… I completely forgot my point 😂 It is Monday after all.
Moving on, I am wishing you a great week filled with tiny moments of love. Someone saying I love you (I LOVE YOUUUU < me yelling this from my bed), a pet giving you a kiss, someone sending you a ‘saw this and thought of you’ message, doing something self care related, a rainbow after a rainy morning, drinking your favorite drink and it being the perfect temperature. What else? You let me know 🥰
It is time for this hopeless romantic to go and start her day, but not before I tell you that whenever you doubt if you are lovable or if someone is capable of loving you - just know that there is a girl in Amsterdam who loves you to the moon and back 🧡✨
Babette!! 🧡
I have to say that this message came exactly at the right time for me as it's been something that's been on my mind a lot lately. you know when you're young and you see everyone around you getting into relationships and you start to worry about what if that just will never happen to you? that's been me lately, even though I know that would be possible for me too if I would just put myself out there for once (but it's always the same story: I'm just too introverted and way too nervous to initiate a conversation with basically anyone, even though I know I am perfectly capable of holding a conversation). being an introvert in a world of extroverts is an endless struggle, right? but one day our time will come!!
I hope you have a lovely week too, Babette. greetings from another girl in Amsterdam (to be exact: the OBA library once again. I'm basically here every day now that school has started again as I am incapable of having an attention span at home).
🧡

Now, as every mother says, she has no favorites between her children. They are all loved equally. Astrid says something similar when it comes to her "family". No member is favored more than the other, what kind of leader would she be if that was the case? But... that doesn't mean Astrid doesn't feel more inclined towards certain members on certain days. Arnbjorn is one example, Gabriella is a close second, Babette and Nazir are also up there. But the Dark Brotherhood has a few family members that are... erased when the DB enters.
Astrid is not above being petty or removing members from her family. Once Astrid got in the position of leader, she kept a tight hold onto her title. There has been instances where a DB member got out of line, so she got rid of them. But that's more apparent and often gets the rest of the DB involved. But there's been more silent ways Astrid has gotten rid of past DB members. Specifically, if a DB member has been showing signs of disloyalty, talking bad about Astrid behind her back to the wrong person, talking badly about other members of the DB, or is becoming really, really sloppy with jobs, they become a liability in her eyes. Thus, she can't trust them. So she gets rid of them to keep her leadership in order and to not show any self-percieved weaknesses.
(I really like the concept of Astrid in a leadership position and how the family dynamic functions in the DB under her "rule", so I wanted to ramble a bit. I got a little inspired and I miss my girl, Astrid, so here's a small headcanon!! Hope to see you guys soon during the summer if I have more time to write! Miss you guys <3)

• She is such a hanger-on. If the group is drinking, she drinks. If the group is commiting casual arson, welp, guess we burn something down today. [All comes down to being the youngest sibling and having to dance to their sisters' piping. She is used to follow. It's a sad comfort.]
• She holds a huge hate towards insects in general but moths take the cake. She will curse and scream if one flutters close to her. Followed by a long ramble about why they are bad for her work (which everyone in the camp heard 1000 of times but she CAN'T MENTION IT ENOUGH).
• Cinnamon rolls are her favorite. Literally could have them for breakfast, dinner and supper.
• She thinks blue as a color has potential, but still likes it the least. She rarely suggests someone to wear blue.
• The crown is alive.
• If there are no projects open, she likes to knit sweaters or hats for Scratch and the Owlbear cub.
• despite being a bard, she never had the chance to learn an intrument. She can whistle very well. Babette like to learn the violin one day.
