Not-So-Late Night Buck & Tommy Ramblings: I'm Back!

I have survived my chaos week and, with the help of a very large Iced Latte, I'm here to share all the thoughts that have been building up this week in the world of Buck & Tommy. I'm not going in any specific order but I'm going to start with the thing I find most significant and that is what is happening in regards to interviews with Ryan this past week.

Another clip of Ryan talking about Buddie dropped today and I've seen two extremely opposite reactions to it amongst fans. In this clip he basically said he wasn't a writer, he'd be open to it if it happened but said it was important for the storyline to be seen as a heterosexual man supporting his bisexual friend and how things didn't change. Some people think this means Buddie is definitely happening in season 8 (or even a reveal of some feelings this season) while others think this means that Buddie is getting less and less likely. Those favoring it and saying it means Buddie will happen seem to be focusing on the fact that they were still allowed to ask Buddie-related questions. I bring this up because I do think it plays into the discussion of whether Tommy will be a more long term love interest moving into season 8.

What I find most important about this answer is how it is almost exactly the same as all his other responses to Buddie-related questions from that week. He hit the exact same key points and I think it's very obvious at this point this isn't an organic answer. These are points that PR and marketing very likely told him to hit. And the fact that he is answering all Buddie related questions by explicitly saying Eddie is heterosexual is really standing out to me. That is, in my opinion, very intentional.

So what do I think it means? I think it means that they are definitely not planning on buddie happening (this season or next). They are intentionally linking all questions about buddie to very explicit statements that the one member of that pairing isn't queer. One big issue earlier this season, when Buck came out, was websites taking answers from other interviews and writing clickbait articles suggesting Buddie was going to happen. This makes it harder for those types of articles to pop up. It's why we likely haven't seen as many like we did with Oliver's statements (which were very similar minus explicitly saying Eddie was heterosexual). I personally think this is how they'll handle it for the remainder of the season and they'll progressively continue to distance themselves from Buddie moving into next season. Personally, I think there is a lot happening to suggest Tommy is sticking around and they're being intentional with how parts of the fandom are reacting to that. Especially since it's been a very positive reaction so far for this new couple of BuckTommy.

In other news, which is somewhat related, we know we're getting Tommy next week because he is was in the trailer. We also know that we're getting Captain Gerard at the medal ceremony. I've seen a lot of people predicting this will somehow impact Buck and Tommy but personally, I think this is going to play into bringing Tommy more into the 118 family. I think we're more likely to see an interaction between Tommy, Hen and Chimeny over him being there.

In my last post I also had people asking me about Oliver deleting a bunch of photos from Instagram. I did a bit of research and that seems like it's the norm for him.

Be back tonight for an update on the Buck/Tommy Hospital kiss reel because it hit 1 million views.

date or dominate...? ☀

a/n: my friend got the title from a wet and wild highlighter. 😭

warnings: double strap, cum eating, rich!ellie, breeding, ellie grinds her clit on your ass, assgirl!ellie

୨୧・・・・୨୧・・・・

You pour tea into a delft decorated mug, sipping the hot liquid that trickled down your throat, soothing the soreness. Your muscles released with ease as you sink into the hot water, eyes fluttering closed and a small pleased smile on your face. A long day of walking around Paris, stupidly in wedges for pictures. Ellie had dragged you along to a work trip with her, like she always does. But, you were her 'best friend' so, she needed some company on these trips.

You let out a hum contently and continue sipping on the warm liquid, sighing each time it numbs the pain in your throat. You hear a click of the hotel door open and a loud thunk on the floor. "Oh my God my day was crazy" you hear a groan, hearing the mini fridge open and glasses clink.

You hum and lay your head back, laying it on the ledge of the tub as footsteps fade into the bathroom. "You're having yourself a nice day" she says, looking at you with a wine bottle in her hand and two wine glasses.

"Mmmhm" you hum, eyes shut.

"Do you even wanna hear about my day?" she asks, walking near the tub.

"No, not really" you say, smiling slightly.

"You're a real bitch sometimes," she smirks, sitting the wine and glasses down and dropping her pants and unbuttoning her shirt before stepping into the tub and straddling your waist, leading kisses down your jaw and to your neck.

"No, go away" you groan, pushing her head away.

"So I can't rant or have sex?" she looks at you with an arched brow.

"No, because, believe it or not, I'm not a prostitute, even thought we're in Europe. And I also need to relax, like a normal person does once and a while" you say, opening your eyes and looking at her.

"What's up with you?" she asks, taken aback by your remark.

"Today..." you sigh, grabbing a wine glass and popping the cork off the bottle, pouring it into the glass. "Would be our one year anniversary, if you stepped up and dated me instead of fucking me" you gulped down half the glass of wine.

"Slow down-" she reached out for your glass. "Do not tell me to slow down! You need to hurry up and make me yours, not sexually, romantically, Ellie! I go to brunches, dinners, fund raisers, events for your company as your date, I go to nice dinners with you, yet all I am is your best friend!" you yell, gripping your wine glass a little too hard.

"Okay, I-I hear you- just take a deep breath-" Ellie tries to soothe you.

"Get out!" you say, pointing to the bathroom door. She looks at you with surprise, eyes blown wide. "No" she says quietly, "I'm staying with you"

"How is one intimate with someone for a year and not feel something for her" you say in disbelief. "I love you" she says, holding your face with her hands.

"But I don't deserve someone like you. I work like a dog, I'm always traveling and I'm always away. If I date you, your going to be like some pathetic housewife witting at home and getting attention from anyone who gives it to her since you don't get it from me" she says.

The usual hazel lust in her eyes was a shimmery green, a glint in her eyes that you haven't seen before. Her eyes were wide, mouth agape slightly, cheeks puffed out barely, not even noticeable unless you focused. Her mouth was a slight agape frown. God she looked prettier than ever like this.

"I've gone on every trip with you since you've first owned this company, what makes you think that I'd stay at home?" you ask, voice calm now.

"I'm scared." she says, jaw trembling. "I don't want you to be alone, or feel lonely, you deserve so much more than that. If working from home more means being with you, and giving you attention, then that's what I'll do, okay? I want you- no I need you, to stay. I need you to be my girlfriend, y-you're..mine-okay?" she says, eyes watering as her voice breaks.

"Okay, I'm yours now, I know," you smile, stroking her cheek with her hand and pulling her into your body, embracing her. "I'm sorry I'm such an asshole" she sniffles. You giggle softly and rub circles on her back. "You're my asshole then" you smile, tracing her spine with your long manicured nail.

You felt her shiver under you, despite the warm air and sun casting on her through the window. "I love you" she whispered to you, words like a prayer, a commitment, or a devotion, she said it like she'd say it every day for the rest of her life.

"I love you too Els" you say softly, her hands skimming your sides, making shivers run through your body. Heat was coursing through your veins as her hands would stroke your thigh, nearing where you wanted her. Her other hand would run down your stomach, and trace each of your ribs.

"Ellie..." you sigh, head tilting back as she places a soft kiss on your neck. "I bought something on the way here...if you're up for it.." she says.

You see a side of her no one else saw, even you. She was nervous, eyes avoiding yours as they flick back and forth from your body to your lips, fingers twiddling and voice soft and suggestive.

You nod to which she climbs out of the tub, grabbing a towel and walking out of the bathroom and making her way to your shared bedroom. You push yourself out of the tub, your body heavy with water. The tub swirls, discarding bubbles and water into the drain. "Lay on the bed, ass up" you hear Ellie from the other room. You can feel a rush of blood go to your core, discarding the towel and walking into the bedroom.

Ellie was to preoccupied fumbling with the strap around her waist to notice you. You giggle softly and meet her next to the bed to buckle the buckle she struggled with. "Thanks" she murmurs.

The strap she had on was thick, protruding out with blue silicone, long and with a slight curve. You watched as it connected to another end that disappeared between her wet folds.

"Here" she says shakily, handing you a remote and staring at you. "My side has a vibrator so you can control it...whenever you like" she said, twiddling with her thumbs.

"Okay, thank you baby" you say, kissing her cheek and grabbing the small white machinery before laying on the bed on your stomach, lifting your hips so your ass was in the air.

You felt the bed shift, her weight on both knees as she knelt behind you, calloused hands sliding up your sides. The same rough hands played with the skin on your bottom, rolling up the flesh in her hands, gripping it and spreading it apart. A harsh smack sent across your cheek, making you whimper in anticipation.

"Gonna come inside this pussy" she muttered, thumb sliding through the slickness that coated your soft folds, the sun shining through the window and making the slick glisten. You let out a whimper again, her words making you rut your hips backward in protest.

With that, you feel the silicone tip run through your folds and press against your pearl, sliding down before easing deep inside you. It wasn't hard for the 8 inches to bottom out. You moan softly as you hear her groan, the strap poking up in the depths of her core. "You're so tight" she groans. She swear she could feel your warm walls and tight core.

Her hips move backward, pulling out before snapping forward, shoving in deep to you. Your chest moved forward against the covers with each hard and slow thrust. You felt like mother nature under your feet was splitting.

Euphoric couldn't begin to explain how good it felt, hearing Ellie bit her lip and let out squeaks every once and a while because she was trying not to whine and whimper when she felt the strap push in her walls and the skin of your butt ripple with each thrust. You groan, eyes rolling back in your head as her pull outs and thrusts began to get more frequent, getting faster and her pull outs getting shorter before snapping back in and pulling out in a matter of two seconds.

You cry out, hands gripping for dear life on the sheets. "Oh, Ellie" you moan. Her name for your pretty lips and moans made her let out an audible whimper she possibly couldn't hold back if she tried her hardest. She watched the skin of your butt ripple and clap together with each thrust, urging her to thrust harder and faster. Her whimpers only got louder the more she went faster, turning into cries soon, it made you so close so fast, you felt ready to burst at how she pleaded under her breath. "So pretty, s-soso pretty, g-gonna come inside y-you baby, k-knock you u-up" she whined, chewing on her bottom lip as she closed her eyes, scared she'd cum if she watched your butt anymore. "Knock me up baby- ohmygod-" you moan loudly, eyes rolling back into your head.

The opened French doors to the balcony and the opened windows didn't do your pleasure justice, the people below you hearing your cries and pleas at how good it felt to be railed by her.

"Pleasepleaseplease" you cry, gripping onto the sheets like you'd submit to your death if you let go. Her thrusts began to get brutal as a hand came down and made tight figure eights on your swollen bud that poked out from between your folds. You suddenly remember the remote in your power and go for it, turning it on and pressing the plus button until the speed was at five. "Oh fuck!" Ellie moans, hands rooting to your hair and tugging it back. Her hips speed up, snapping hard and relentlessly into your abused cunt.

"Ellie Ellie Ellie! Mmm'gonna cum!" you practically scream, fingers accidentally pressing the plus button on the remote where your finger previously remained, turning it up to ten. "Fuck! Ohh my god!" Ellie yells, the tip perfectly hits her g-spot. "Com'on, cum all over my cock, let me cum inside that pretty pussy" she says, hip rhythm messy.

With those words, you came, eyes screwed shut and mouth open wide as a silent scream left your lips. It felt like you were floating, like your soul left your body and you were floating to heaven on a cloud. White hot heat hit you, black behind your eyes becoming white as your eyes snapped open, screaming Ellie's name.

"Fuckkk! Ellie!" you scream, your screams mixing with Ellie's as she takes the strap out of your hole, along with hers, rubbing your clit through your orgasm and mounting you almost, rubbing her clit up and down your ass while she rubbed yours with her fingers through your intense orgasm.

"Fuckfuckfuck, cumming- fuck I'm cumming baby!" she yells, immediately aligning her hole with yours, spreading your sopping hole open and cumming inside you. You could feel it, hard spurts and shoots pressing all the spots inside of you, making you moan loudly. "That's it-take my cum" she pants, eyes squeezed shut as she begins to come back to earth, your cums mixing together. She took her fingers and dipped the mixture on her fingers, pressing them in her mouth and sucking them clean, a lewd moan leaving her lips at the taste. She dipped her fingers in again and pressed them into your mouth, your eyes fluttering at the taste.

She licked you clean, not letting a drop escape her possession.

When the two of you were in reality again, panting, sheer coat of sweat on your foreheads and bodies. "Oh my God" you whisper. "Fuck" Ellie laughs, chest shaking.

"Let's get you cleaned up" she sighs, rolling off the bed and scooping her arms under you to pick you up. "What do you need, angel?" she asked.

"My throat hurts a little, maybe some tea?"

"Tea it is then"

And she went to pour you a cup of tea.

My Top 10 Catradora Moments (My Opinion Obviously)

10. Adora Has Always Loved Catra

This is the moment I believe Adora firmly knows she's in love with Catra. I know she's in love with Catra beforehand but I believe this is the first time she realizes 'I'm in love with Catra'. Adora is getting ready to face an uncertain outcome with Horde Prime and she's trying to remain strong. But we can see glimpses of her looking for Catra wanting to her come back. We then see as she's heading to the Heart of Etheria, memories are being projected. The first one that comes up that really hits Adora is Catra. Catra saying her last and classic 'Hey Adora' and Adora is at first thrilled she's back. But then it changes to Catra when she was younger training in the fright zone, Catra from when she was chipped, Catra from Season 4, Catra from season's 1-3 and then current Catra. This to me screams 'Adora has always loved Catra despite all the hardships they've endured'. Even though she realizes deep down, this isn't the real Catra, she wanted to reciprocate her touch. But then the fake Catra disappears as Adora is almost off the edge.

Also this scene brought that iconic 'Somewhere Only We Know' tiktok.

9. God She's Cute When She Laughs

Everyone knows I'm a sucker for fluff so this little moment always stuck out to me. We've seen Catra blush before and she looked at Adora's New She Ra Form and was like 'Damn...she kinda bad.' But this one was so sweet and wholesome. Catra at first is annoyed cause they're teasing her about how cute her helmet is and at first you think she's gonna be defensive about it. At first she is but then she see's Adora laugh and freezes. Adora is so happy Catra is getting along with her friends and is back to the Catra she grew up with. And Catra just smiles at Adora, any frustration she had melted away.

8. Princess Prom

Ya'll this episode was the reason I gave She-Ra a shot. I saw this scene floating around online and I just had to find out what was going on. At the time, I had only recently accepted myself as sapphic and this was one of the first scenes that caught my attention during that time. There were already strong hints of Catradora later becoming a thing but this scene hit differently. We get to see the dynamic these two would have for a few more seasons. The shift between them as they become enemies while still seeing they still care for one another.

7. It's Over, He's Gone

The end moment with these two in She-Ra was fantastic. Hearing Catra's soft 'Adora' as the two smile at each other was adorable. Adora reaches out her hand to Catra and reassures her that it's over and that Horde Prime is gone. These two had gone through so much because of the Horde. And now, their foreheads touch as they're just happy they made it to their happy beginning for each other. With Catra still being snarky and saying 'Good riddance'. It's a good final moment where the two can be happy. And now this just makes me wish we got a She-Ra movie.

6. Please Just Stay

First of all, if you haven't already please read Don't Go by Nate Stevenson. It's a fanfiction he created that takes place after Save the Cat and really helps highlight this and other scenes I'm about to get into later. It's also just really good. But Catra beforehand is struggling to figure out why Adora saved her and dealing with the aftermath of what Horde Prime did to her. She and Adora just had a big fight with Adora telling Catra she never hated her. We find out later, the chip on Catra is tracking the ship they're on and they need to get it off. With Catra needing to confront Entrapta (who she also didn't end things on good terms with) and Adora. Adora tells Catra once they're done, they can drop her off and she won't have to see any of them again. We see this crumbles Catra's usual strong self as she lets herself be vulnerable for a moment. Grabbing Adora's wrist and then her hand requesting that she stays, Adora also blushes. Catra also comes up with an idea to read what Hordak's planning since their minds are connected. Catra knows Adora will continue to fight Horde Prime and knows she'll be reckless. She just asks Adora to stay with her with two two holding each other. I love this moment as we see the two work together and slowly build their bond again.

5. You Coming?

As Adora is succumbing to the virus and Catra calls out to her, we get this moment of Adora's wish. She's back home with Catra, Glimmer and Bow as they're all getting ready for Scorpia's Princess Prom. Adora wants desperately to have this future with her friends and home happy. She's slowly learning to be selfish after she's been stuck trying to give and give as She-Ra. And she wants a life with Catra, the person she's come to love and married to in this vision. Stevenson confirmed couples in Etheria have something to show they have ties to each other. Catra is wearing Adora’s wing buckle on her shirt and Adora is wearing Catra's head piece on her dress. At first, Adora is sad because part of her wants to embrace this future but doesn't think she deserves this. But seeing Catra, the person she's married to in this version ask her if she's coming with them. She can't help but want to follow her. Even when Adora was dying, all she wanted was a peaceful life with her friends and the person she loved.

4. We're Going Home

Save The Cat in general is a great episode and my personal favorite of She-Ra's. Adora manages to save Catra with the help of her friends as Catra is still unconscious from the fall and whatever Horde Prime did to her. Adora gently holds Catra and telling her she's not done yet and that they're going home. Adora's healing powers manage to work on Catra as she wakes up. She also says her classic 'Hey Adora' in a very weak voice. And Adora is so relieved that she just embraces Catra and and Catra is shocked. We see how hesitant Catra is accept Adora's embrace but eventually she does while letting out a deep breath of relief. With her purring being the last thing we hear before the episode ends. Catra purrs mostly when she's around Adora, she's always happy to be accepted by Adora. This description from Nate Stevenson also really helps sells the moment too.

'They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness. But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.'

3. I'm Not Leaving

Save the Cat and The Heart Part 2 have my favorite Catradora moments and this one is one of them. We saw how Catra came back to Adora when she needed her and almost died trying to save her. Shadow Weaver comes in though and sacrifices herself with Adora and Catra reuniting. This time it's Catra rescuing Adora and coming to her aid instead of the other way around. Adora is struggling to use the failsafe and realizes it might not work. She tells Catra to get far away from where she is and that there's no more time. Saying how she can save everyone and touches her forehead with her own. While also stating how it's okay and she's ready. It's heavily implied Adora is going to die trying to use the Failsafe and Catra stands firm on staying with Adora. Saying whatever happens she'll stay here with her. And we see that as Horde Prime's virus is trying to take control of the Heart, Catra is facing it with Adora.

2. You Matter To Me

I love the scene of Adora trying to save Catra from the chip she's being controlled under. Adora is trying desperately to bring Catra back out and trying not to hurt her despite Catra attacking Adora. Then Catra does break free from control and tells Adora she should have stayed away and asks why she came back when she doesn't matter. With Adora gently holding her face telling Catra she matters to her. This is also asked later again by Catra in Don't Go.

“Why did you come back for me?” she demands.

“I —“ Adora’s voice trails off in the silence. Catra doesn’t let go. The only sound is the soft, muffled humming of the ship’s engines as it moves through space, away from Horde Prime. “Because…” She trails off again.

What is she supposed to say?

“Because…you’re Catra,” she finishes weakly.

Because at the end of the day, Adora will always care for Catra. Then Catra get's possessed again as she walks towards the edge fighting to not be controlled by Horde Prime. Adora reminds Catra she's never listened to anyone in her life and asks if she's going to start now. Catra looks amused as she just says Adora's an idiot with Adora agreeing, tears in her eyes. Adora then says she's going to take Catra home as Catra breaks free from Horde Prime saying 'Promise?'. Adora holds out her hand saying 'I promise!'. This is obviously a parallel to when they were kids and they promised to look out for each other. It's such a heartfelt and touching scene

I Love You

'Catra she distracts you, confuses you.' - Shadow Weaver

'You Etherians are all alike. Such strong connections to one another, it's what makes you weak.' - Horde Prime

And yet their 'weakness' and 'distraction' saved the universe. The Catradora confession scene is number one as it is a finale to Catra and Adora's character arcs. Adora is dying and seemingly getting ready to accept her fate. That there won't be a happy future for her. But then she hears Catra still reaching out and calling for her to wake up. Catra hasn't given up on Adora and Adora never gave up on Catra, so she shouldn't start now.

Adora does try to reach for Catra but doesn't quite make it with her saying it's too late and that she failed. Catra reassures her that she's got Adora and won't let go. In desperation and perhaps wanting to finally tell Adora, Catra says.

'Don't you get it? I love you! I always have! So please just this once, stay!'

We hear Catra and Adora's theme Promise in the background playing this whole time which we haven't heard since the episode Promise. Last time it was Catra leaving Adora to follow her own path and Adora learning to let go of Catra. Now, it's Catra reaching out for Adora as Adora takes her hand. Adora is blushing as Catra has tears in her eyes begging for Adora to stay. Adora does wake up in awe asking if Catra loves her. Catra is blushing while smiling calling Adora an idiot. Then she looks surprised as Adora just smiles at Catra saying she loves her too. They then kiss as Adora is finally able to activate the Failsafe but the two are too busy kissing.

I also want to add in the storyboard version of this scene where Catra says 'We always said it would be you and me, together at the end. But not now, okay?'.

i miss you, don't call me - chapter twelve: friends?

♡ masterlist ♡ - 《 prev | next 》

synopsis: when your acting careers start to pick up you and your boyfriend zoro both decide that it's better to go your separate ways. you didn't want to, but you knew he was right. fast forward to a couple years later, when you're finally starting to heal, your friends score a deal to shoot a movie together with your ex and you're starting to think maybe you haven't really moved on.

you had gone bankrupt in monopoly, courtesy of nami, so you decided to take a break. you excused yourself under the guise of getting another drink before you made your way to the balcony. you just needed some space away from the one man you couldn't stop thinking about.

you look out at the view and notice all the pretty lights in the distance. for a moment you just enjoy the calmness of being outside compared to the chaos of game night that was taking place inside. that is, until you hear the sliding door open and then shut. you don't bother to turn around, you'll figure out whoever it is soon enough.

you feel them slowly move to stand beside you, a few inches between the both of you the only thing keeping you from touching. you don't have to wait for them to speak, the mixture of alcohol and cologne enough to tell you who was standing beside you. you're all too familiar with the combination of scents. you feel your heart skip a beat, it's been awhile since the two of you were alone since the break up.

"hey." you hear him say, the sound of his deep voice causing the butterflies in your belly that were once dormant to slowly wake up. "hey." you respond back, eyes still trained on the lights below you, not ready to look at him just yet. out of the corner of your eye you notice him fidgeting with the beer bottle in his hand, it was one of his habits he'd do when he was nervous that you had become so accustomed to.

"you know...i'm not someone who beats around the bush, i'm also not someone who likes to talk..." he sounds so awkward trying to word his thoughts that you can't help but smile. "yeah, i know." you reply, memories of the both of you flashing through your mind. he lets out a sigh, a hand coming up to ruffle his hair. "it's been awhile since we broke up...i was just thinking...maybe we could be friends? we've been seeing a lot of each other again. i think it would just make sense. right?" he turns his body towards you so that he can fully look at you to see your reaction.

you feel a little embarrassed under his gaze, it's been so long since he's looked at you for longer than a couple of seconds that you can't help but squirm under it. "yeah. we can do that. it would probably make our friends feel more at ease. it was hard not just on us but on them too." you say as you finally work up the courage to look into his eyes. you feel your breath catch in your throat when you notice the look he's giving you, is it fondness? love? you don't know. it doesn't help that you're already a few drinks and some shots in.

"there you guys are! we're starting uno! come on! we're just waiting on you guys!" luffy says while sticking his head out the door. "hurry up!" before you can reply he's already taken off running towards the direction of the living room. "i guess we should head inside." you say as you start walking towards the sliding door. "i'm glad we're friends again. i missed you." you stop in your tracks, the admission catching you off guard. "let's go before they send someone else to get us." he says as he walks past you not waiting for a response.

if you saw this posted weeks ago, no you didn't. tumblr was messing up lmao. but it was only up for a few seconds.

just know if luffy didn't interrupt them they would have talked for longer. but don't worry these idiots will have more chances to.

usopp thought because no one liked his post that they hadn't seen it. they did.

yn is an emotional drunk, she cries at the tiniest things and she loves to run away, since the break up, ace has been in charge of taking care of drunk yn.

as usual, let me know what you thought in the comments or thru ask.

Watched Dead Boy Detectives recently and read some of the comics, putting some thoughts here to get them into words. Minor speculation for the future if we get a second season (which'll be under a cut)

In the comics the boys are younger, somewhere around 12 or 13 I think and their deaths are a little different. The first major plot is actually focused entirely on the school, I like the shift from that and the way they took the cases in the show a lot actually. Although having them meet Crystal in boarding school would've been funny.

I think aging them up was actually the better option, especially if we want more than one season. Actually having them be as young as they were in the comics would've made it so they had to recast every few seasons since dead boys don't exactly age. I think it also allowed for a wider audience, having two main characters as 13 year olds would've been a little young for a lot of viewers to take the show seriously and to tie in with the Sandman show.

I'm really interested to see where they go from here, if they've decided not to use the school at all and how they handle Crystal and her parents. In the show so far we've only really seen the one glimpse of them but they have a bit more depth (like a tiny bit) in the comics and I do wonder if we'll see anything like that or if they'll be just as absent if we get a season 2. A few of the separate big bads they deal with in the comics come from the school, I'm leaning towards that being mostly left behind because of what we saw with Simon, in the comics he was definitely not someone who was ever going to be redeemed or make peace.

I'm putting the rest under a read more for season 2 spec that some people might not want to see (primarily a bit about Niko and where she might be)

So, my first thought is the Neitherlands. Idk how much it shows up in Sandman comics because I haven't gotten to those and is pretty big plot wise in the 2014 DBD run.

The Neitherlands is where a few different characters are trapped, namely 2 friends of Crystals, Hana and Rosa. In the original comics Rosa is taken as a child while with Crystal on a rollercoaster and Hana is sacrificed so her body can be stolen by a demon. Neither of them are exactly what happens to Niko but we don't really know what that charm did and I'm willing to entertain the idea because of it's connection to Tragic Mike.

Now, the thing that made me think of this at all is the most striking feature of the Neitherlands, snow made of bone. In the comics it appears without color, but the main defining feature from the beginning is snow made of bone. I could be entirely off base, but in the comics they are able to rescue and return people from the Neitherlands.

The question about that, is that in the comics the bodies are still alive. Rosa in a coma and Hana possessed by a demon. If Niko is in the Neitherlands while her body has died what does that mean for her return?

(other slight connection between the Neitherlands is that slightly more walrussy Tragic Mike has a direct path in his shop that allows him to go to the Neitherlands. Direct path as in like, him drowning for a while I think, but it works for him. And he did give Niko the lucky charm)

#dead boy detectives #dbda #edwin paine #charles rowland #dead boy detectives netflix #dead boy detective agency #dead boy detective spec #this was just to put my thoughts somewhere #might be entirely wrong #niko sasaki #tragic mick #crystal palace #crystal dead boy detectives #niko dead boy detectives #edwin dead boy detectives #charles dead boy detectives

Delusions - Vox x Gn!reader

okay okay so I have found a cool prompt to write so I'm gonna write it for Vox cuz I've been in love with him recently and I also haven't written anything for Vox yet ahahha just so you know I'm sucker for doll Velvette so she is seen as one here

They started this job at the Voxtek enterprise building a couple of months ago, they were really down on their luck but we were also really good with tech in general and, since it hadn't been that long since they got in hell, they were looking for everything that guaranteed them some sort of protections from the exorcists but from the hell citizens in general.

Now, it wasn't like them to make friends with their boss, hell not even in their life had they ever done that, they always had kinda creepy bosses all their life so it was easy not to befriend them. But with the Vees it was different, well at least with Vox and Velvette, they had always found Valentino a bit creepy with the kink stuff and everything but the other two had been somehow nice to them for the past few months, they both weren't the best at showing kindness, it was actually kind of a struggle but they somehow did it only with them.

Now they were really naive so they couldn't really tell that Vox was mostly being nice cuz he was starting to fall for them, he wouldn't admit it to himself or to anyone really but he was. Velvette had caught wind of that and started flirting on purpose with Y/n to the point where Vox would short-circuit often from how mad he was, today was one of those days.

''so Y/n, what are you planning to do tonight?,,

Velvette says, a smirk on her face while looking at Vox scolding one of his employees, now Y/n was a bit concentrated on their work so they weren’t really listening going “huh” like two times before catching what she said, this made them blush a bit

“oh, em, nothing really, working probably, why?,,

they say putting down their clipboard and looking at the doll like demon

“oh I don’t know maybe you’d want to hang out or something get away from work for a bit,,

they giggle at the offer she made but shakes their head and takes their clipboard and leaves.

as they leave they bump into someone walking towards them, that someone being Vox himself, he catches them last minute with a hand on their back, then looks them in the eyes before helping them back up.

“you gotta be more careful newbie,,

they fix their posture and looks at him while laughing

“can’t believe you still call me a newbie even tho i’ve been working here for months,,

he smirks and chuckles moving his hand to stroke the side of their cheek to some non-existent dust, they unconsciously lean into his touch and blush. This made Vox almost short-circuit again for the thousandth time but instead, he took a deep breath and looked them in the eyes for a rather long time

''em, mister Vox are you alright?,,

they say a little bit concerned, reaching for the side of his screen to see if he was over-heating or something, but as soon as he saw the hand come near him he backed away and coughed out loud

''do not worry dear I am fine, now get back to work please,,

they heeded and picked up their clipboard and ran to whatever their job was. Vox now that they were gone dropped his happy and calm facade for a more concerned and stressed look, he then goes and bumps into Velvette

''what the fuck Vox look where you're going and what is it with the face- ohhhh, I get it. Bumped into Y/n have you? mhhh?,,

she says mockingly, laughing and looking at him getting mad

''listen here you little shit, I am not in the mood for your bullshit,,

''wow come on, what happened now,,

he slaps his screen and sighs

''I happened, I'm such a shit flirter I SWEAR TO GOD- T-T-THIS IS SO STUPID-D-D-D,,

he was starting to short-circuit again.

''Vox chill out for fuck sake,,

a little bit of smoke was coming out off the top of his screen while he was glitching again, he did manage to calm down after a few seconds, took a deep breath and facepalmed himself whining

''you're in love aren't you,,

his head springs up and looks directly at Velvette with a hated filled stare

''I think you're delusional,,

''and I think you are in denial,,

she says with an all-knowing expression on her face, hands on her hips striking a pose

he just grunts and stomps the floor a couple of times before taking a deep breath, fixing his tie and walking away to find Y/n

they were doing some shipment paperwork for the carmine parts that were supposed to come, they stopped when they saw Vox come into the room

''oh hey sir, do you need something,,

they say smiling and putting the paperwork down. Vox comes closer and pushes them towards a wall to then pin them.

their face was completely red and they had a confused look on their face, their arms pressed to their chest, eyes looking directly in his.

''s-sir what are you-,,

''stop calling me sir okay? just call me Vox, understood?,,

They nod sheepishly and look sideways shyly only for Vox to pull up his hand and turn their head back to his. He then leans in and kisses them on the lips. this transmits electricity all throughout their body making their hair fizzle up a little. They kiss him back tho, putting a hand on the side of his screen and the other one on his chest

Electricity was literally in the air around them. They stop the kiss, a sparkle leaving both their lips before they look each other in the eyes again. They both hear a snap of a camera, making them turn around to see Velvette taking a picture of them while yelling yoink and running away

''VELV-E-ETTE-E-E-E,,

I LOVED WRITING THIS LITERALLY LOVED ITTTTTTT I LOVE VOX SO MUCH RN EHEHEHE ANYWAY HOPE YOU ENJOYED THEONESHOT <3

#i ordered a long coat yesterday #partly it is because i wanted one for spring and to look dramatic af #but mostly its because my best friends are visiting me in two weeks and we will go to london for a day and they theyll come to mine #and i couldnt let the opportunity to pass #cause 14 year old me would die if i was in london with the friends i already was close with at that time #and i would be casually walking around london with them while wearing a dramatic sherlock like coat #if that coast doesnt fit right ill go to one of the physical vintage shops to find one that works #this is for the depressed teen me who was obsessed with one direction and sherlock #the same friends and the city that always was a dream that i wasnt allowed to have #its going to be so good im so fucking excited and i haven't seen my friends for half a year already so i miss them so much #and then we come back to Brighton and ill show them few toursity bits and then well just hang out by the sea for a day or two #i am also getting a haircut next week at my trusted queer barber so imma look noice and then feel even noicer cause friends ❤#personal

just realised there is no way I could go to the Blur Wembley concert because the Puy de Dôme stage will be on the next day.

Hide The Pain Pog.

#not to add that the airport for London will be nearly inaccessible #not to add the environmental and economical coast of boarding a plane to London just for one night #while all i need to go see these 2 Tour stages is taking the bus and sleeping by my friends & family in Limoges & Clermont (it's all free)#also we haven't seen the tour in the Puy de Dôme since fucking 1964 so it's clearly an event occurring once in a lifetime

some important calvin and hobbes facts in case you haven't read the original comic strip in a long time or only absorbed stuff on it from memes and out of context bits on here:

Calvin's last name has never been given, and neither has any of his parent's names. This was actually why his uncle Max only showed up for a brief storyline; the creator of the comic, Bill Watterson, ultimately felt that while it was fine to have him as someone for his parents to talk to, it felt far too awkward to never have Max refer to them by name and he never made a return appearance.

The general tone of the comic is fairly light-hearted, with a big emphasis on goofy slapstick comedy contrasted by clever wordplay and often surprising adult-centered jokes that'll hit you like a slap. A big part of the comedy is, as Watterson put it (paraphrased) "It's really funny to me when people express deeply stupid ideas with really fancy terminology." One notable example you might have seen is that one bit where Calvin asks his mom for money to buy a Satan-worshiping rock album and his mom replies that there's nothing genuine about them and they're just putting on the attitude for shock value, and comisserates with Calvin as he deplores that mainstream nihilism can't be trusted. He concludes that childhood is disillusioning.

There is a LOT of criticism of the extreme materialism and selfish mentality of the late 80s, when the comic was initially written. This may go a long way to explain how its aged so well; much of what it criticizes resonates well with people today.

Bill Watterson views comic strips a legitimate form of artwork, and repeatedly fought to have more space to draw more beautiful and artistic backgrounds, which was a very hard fight and unpopular even with other comic strip artists. He eventually did win some compromises and a lot of Calvin And Hobbes' artwork shows it, with the use of space to indicate time as well as a sharp contrast between the often plain environments of mundane life contrasted by the wildly beautiful imagery of Calvin's imagination (which often sports realistic depictions in an art shift of sorts).

Hobbes is explicitly not an imaginary friend, by word of Watterson himself. We don't know WHAT he is exactly, and Hobbes is apparently unaware of the strange nature of his reality; people look at him and only see an ordinary stuffed tiger plushie, but he has a tangible effect on the world that would be physically impossible for Calvin to do on his own. He's apparently been around for a while, and was apparently around when Calvin was a young baby.

On that note; Hobbes has implicitly killed (notably treated as both a gag and also with the vibe of 'he's a tiger, duh') and while he doesn't do it again on-screen, he doesn't have any moral issues about it. Calvin claims that he's never had trouble bringing Hobbes to school because the last time he did, Hobbes killed and ate a bully named Tommy Chestnut and simply comments that it was gross and he needed a bath. Calvin's tried to repeat this again, but Hobbes was grossed out at the thought having to eat a kid raw and not being allowed to use an oven first, or complaining that children are too fattening.

Hobbes became gradually less human-like in body language and more like an actual cat in both body language and behavior; this was due to Watterson drawing more inspiration from his cat, who also inspired a lot of Hobbes' running gags, such as pouncing on Calvin when he got home. Several years into the syndication of the strip, Watterson's cat passed away, and he did a tribute to her with a comic strip of the two of them agreeing to try to dream together so they can keep playing when they have to sleep; Watterson's commentary (if I recall right), remarks on his cat: "We can see each other again in dreams."
