Some ST Headcanons of Mine <3
Tumblr media
- Max let’s Lucas braid her hair sometimes even if he’s bad at it
- Steve and Jonathan secretly call each other but hang up before either one can talk because they are too afraid to say they kinda miss having the other around ( Joyce is the only one that knows and thinks it’s funny )
- Mike secretly thinks Max is the coolest person he’s ever met ( besides Will & El ofc )
- Robin has a key to Steve’s house and let’s herself in with no notice whatsoever as if she lives there
- Dustin also has a key ( he stole Robin’s and got one copied for everyone )
- Moms approach Steve all the time asking him to babysit and he’s just so confused because why are they doing that?? ( as if he doesn’t parade around town with at least 1 of 7 children at all times )
- Max has a seashell from California that she puts up to her ear every night before going to bed because it reminds her of her dad :(
- Lucas pretends to hate having Erica around all the time but is actually relieved because he knows she’s safe when she’s with him and his friends
- Steve has showed up to all of Lucas’s games in hopes that he would get to see him play ( He was SO proud when he scored the winning shot )
- Max listens to all of Lucas’s games
- El and Lucas have a weekly call where they catch one another up on everything and gossip about drama and their friends 
- When Will misses home he calls Dustin so they can talk about dnd :(
- Nancy takes Max shopping every couple of weeks to help get her out of the house and take her mind off things
- Max thinks Nancy is the coolest person in the world and actually looks up to her a lot
- Steve picks the boys up after every dnd session because a small part of him is always going to be worried abt the upside down and he can’t stand the idea of anything bad happening to them
- Jonathan has several letters he’s written to Nancy over the last 8 months that he’ll never send ( some are break up letters that he can’t bring himself to send because he just loves her so much but he knows he can’t go with her to college )
- When El misses home Jonathan let’s her go through all the pictures he’s taken of everyone over the years to make her feel better ( Her favourite is the one of her and Max making silly faces behind the boys )
- Will and El have weekly movie nights
- Argyle helps El with her English homework after school and is surprisingly really good at it
- Dustin secretly LOVES cats- he was devastated when Dart ate Mews but he wanted to look brave in front of Steve
- Steve knew he was devastated which is why he bought Dustin’s mom a new cat ( This is literally canon idc- he got Claudia that cat and I’ll die on this hill )
- Jonathan is secretly an ABBA lover ( His favourite is Take A Chance On Me because it reminds him of how he felt when he first fell in love with Nancy )
- One time when everyone was in The Wheeler’s basement Don’t Stop by Fleetwood Mac came on and everyone danced and sang horribly off key to it ( Jonathan and Mike tried their hardest to stay out of it but Nancy outright refused this and made them join in )
- Will is the personalized gift giver of the group… he spends so much time making everyone the sweetest and most personal gifts ( Max cried when she first got one )
- When Max is avoiding Lucas and Will is avoiding Mike they’ll hide out at each other’s houses because the party doesn’t think they are that close ( They are actually best friends they told me themselves )
- Steve thinks Robin is the best friend he’ll ever have
- Robin thinks the same
- When El and Will moved away Max convinced the party to make them a going away present- it was a box filled with comics, pictures, letters and small things that would remind the two of them of everyone ( Max gave it to Jonathan and told him to hide it until they got to California- the two cried when they opened it )
- Steve called The Byers residence the night before they moved and apologized for not being able to be there when they left but thanked them for giving him a second chance
- El has the pictures of her and Max from the mall hung up on her wall in frames that Will decorated for her
- Mike makes Max tell him all about her day at the mall with El whenever he misses her knowing it was one of the happiest days of her life
- Mike also pretends to think Max is a bad influence on El but has actually come to the conclusion that she’s probably the best person for El to be around because she’s the one person who helped El truly become her own person instead of a shell of what other people wanted her to be
- Eddie thinks Max is the coolest out of the kids ( He loves Dustin the most tho )
- Mike cried after his fight with Will, he hates it when he screws things up like that but sometimes ( most of the time ) his mouth moves faster than his brain and he can’t help what he says
- Lucas has a box under his bed filled of pictures with Max and love letters he’s written to her but never given to her ( Erica found it and now threatens to expose Lucas whenever he won’t do what she wants him to do )
- She thinks it’s really sweet though and absolutely adores Max ( Lucas was horrified when they first met because within the first twenty seconds they had already started conspiring against him )
- Eddie secretly feeds the dog outside ( Him and Max ran into each other once and he lent her his favourite mix after deciding she was a pretty alright kid )
- She gave him one back and he was absolutely horrified that he was actually super into Kate Bush ( Max knows this but refused to tell another soul ) 
- Dustin was the most hurt when Max shut herself away from everyone, it made him feel like he wasn’t doing enough as a friend
- In her letter to him she assures him that there was nothing else he could have done and that she was tired of feeling like she was bringing them down with her and figured they were better off without her
- Dustin cried so hard after reading his letter before he was hit with a violent wave of anger, cursing Vecna for taking away two of his best friends in such a cruel and unforgiving way
- Steve gave Dustin Eddie’s vest
- Nancy knows it was El that brought Max back but hasn’t said anything about it
- Robin calls Nancy every night before bed after Vecna to make sure she’s alright
- Nancy calls Robin every morning after she wakes up to make sure her nightmares weren’t too bad
- The moms try and give Steve money for stuff like gas and snacks but he always refuses because he takes care of the kids because he loves them and not because it’s an obligation
- Karen still manages to slip him some money every once in a while ( Mike literally just throws it somewhere in his car and leaves him to find it )
- Nancy thinks it’s funny that most of the town sees her as some pretty princess that lives in her own little world when in all reality she’s out fighting inter dimensional monsters, saving the town every other day and owns several different guns
- Steve and Nancy take turns driving the kids to the hospital to visit Max
- Steve read his letter from Max out loud to her before bursting into tears. It was the first time any of them had seen him cry ( excluding Nancy and Robin )
- Steve feels extremely guilty and at fault when anything bad happens to anyone- Robin is the only one who knows how horrible he feels about Max and Eddie ( She held him as he cried and softly reassured that he did everything he could have done given the circumstances)
- That doesn’t stop him from blaming himself for what happened
- Mike is fully prepared to fight Lonnie if he so much as looks at Will, Jonathan or Joyce the wrong way ( This is the first time Hopper has been in full agreement with Mike )
- Lucas finds a box in Max’s room filled with pictures of the two of them and notes he never received ( He breaks down and has to call Steve to come get him )
- One Christmas the kids all come together to get Steve his own Walkie-talkie ( it’s always on and set to their channel in case there’s a code red )
- Nancy’s not sure if she was jealous of Robin or if she was jealous of Steve when she thought the two of them were together ( Ronance <3 )
- Will hasn’t played dnd since he left Hawkins
- Jonathan doesn’t take as many pictures anymore ( he’s been so distant from everyone and everything he loves for the last 8 months )
- Dustin thanks the universe everyday for sending Steve his way ( he really does love him so much and sees him as an older brother <3 )
- Lucas misses Will the most ( he would have somehow convinced Eddie to move dnd and then forced them all to go to Lucas’s game )
- Mike wanted to call Nancy after his fight with El because he knows she’s the only person that understands why it’s so hard for him to say he loves someone
- If they can’t find Susan or any other member of Max’s family Steve fully intends to legally adopt her ( Even if it means sacrificing his pride and going to work for his dad so he can afford it )
- Mike goes to visit Max when no one else is there because he doesn’t want anyone to know how guilty he feels ( He cries every time he sits there and talks to her, silently praying that she’ll wake up and he’ll get another chance to be her friend )
- Steve calls Joyce or Karen when he needs some sort of motherly guidance ( The two treat him like one of their own )
- Robin and Jonathan actually get along really well despite their clashing opinions on Steve ( They are also Will’s biggest protectors )
- Steve redecorated the guest room that’s across his bedroom for the kids ( His Father was furious but his mother couldn’t help but be proud that her son cared so much for the kids )
- He never really talks about it but his relationship with his parents really messed him up which is why he makes sure he’s a stable figure in the kids life ( It means the world to Dustin, Max, El and Mike because Steve really had nothing to do with the upside down but he sticks around regardless and is constantly jumping head first into danger for them )
- Erica always calls Robin after she has a nightmare about the Russians ( Robin always takes her out for ice cream the next day )
- Everyone thinks Lucas’s favourite memory with Max is when they first kissed but it’s actually the night on top of the bus because he knew he made her feel safe and at home in Hawkins
- Robin and Dustin have grown to hate Fast Times but they still watch it once a month because it’s one of Steve’s favourite
- Writing Steve’s letter hurt Max the most because it was everything she wanted to say but never could and he would only know how much she truly cared about him if she died
- After Eddie died Dustin started sleeping over a Steve’s house a lot more
- Max thinks Steve is the best person she knows. The comfort and safety she feels with him is one she’s only ever felt with her dad before.
- The older teens love all the kids but they all have their favourites! Steve’s are Dustin, Max and Lucas, Nancy’s are Mike, El and Dustin, Jonathan’s are Will, El and Mike, Eddie’s are Dustin and Max and Robin’s are Erica, Lucas, Dustin and Max ( and eventually Will )
- Dustin is very loved by the older teens!
- They never say it enough but they all love each other so much and despite how they all came together they are eternally grateful that the universe threw them all together as one big ( Hopefully one day- happy ) Family. 
Anyways these are just a handful of headcanons I have! The overall message is that they all love each other very much <3

China, IL: “The Funeral” | May 26, 2008 - 12:45AM | S00E01
This one feels daunting to me, and it’s not just because I cried while watching this. It’s more because I don’t know exactly how to adequately praise this one. I will say, I was excited to revisit this one, and it fuckin’ holds up. In fact, I was surprised by how much of this I remembered, because it’s been quite a while since I’ve revisited it. 
Brad Neely was maybe the best thing about Super Deluxe, excluding Tim & Eric Nite Live. I honestly feel remiss not including his Super Deluxe work somehow in a more chronologicalized way.
It wouldn’t be until much later until this became an actual weekly series. When it became a weekly series, it underwent a cosmetic overhaul, with actual animation instead of a rapid succession of stills which this special and Neely’s Super Deluxe shorts used. I always wished they’d stuck with this more minimalistic format; though I may be alone in that. I remember some people saw this show as a harbinger of bad things to come, animation-wise. People who couldn’t hang with Tom Goes to the Mayor for it’s limited-animation probably REALLY hated this.
The plot of this episode: Baby Cakes finds a diary belonging to a woman. She was a professor at his college, where his father works, as well as the professor brothers Steve and Frank. She dated Frank, and secretly despised him. She hated a lot of stuff about her life, and spilled her truth on the pages of her secret book.
Baby Cakes finds out that he’s dead, and in fact the diary was taken from just outside the site of her fatal car crash. Baby Cakes begins to cope with the fact that he’s in love with a dead woman, and also harbors the secret knowledge that Frank, who is despondent, but also oblivious to the fact that she hated him. Eventually Baby Cakes, in an act of posthumous love, dramatically reveals the truth at the woman’s wake. Frank runs naked towards the graveyard where she’s buried his friends all come to his rescue. 
I know this doesn’t all exactly sound like a hilarious romp. But Neely has a way with words and funny drawings that somehow make the material hilarious. Nearly every turn-of-phrase in this is meticulously written to be funny, and there are many expressionistic/imaginative tangents from these characters to keep it lively and interesting. There are subtle, blink-and-you’ll-miss-them sight gags. The imagery has great comic and dramatic timing. There’s references to the previous shorts thrown in there for those of us who’ve been along for the ride. It manages to be deep, soulful, hilarious, beautiful, and unpretentious.
It’s frankly incredible that I never got fully obsessed with the original shorts. I think that’s because I didn’t really like watching these on the Super Deluxe website. Sad! As a comedic influence, I underrate Neely drastically. There are all kinds of moments in this where I thought to myself “oh, I try to write shit like this all the time”. It’s sad to say that my barrier for appreciating him fully was a technical one. If I were able to buy these shorts on DVD and watch them in order on my television set, I probably would’ve repeated them into the ground. But. 
The shot of the three kids on bikes, sorta apathetically watching the funeral party bury the teacher. It’s a small detail and they show it for like, a second. This bit might be the single strongest memory I have of this show. It’s just so great. Sorta sums up what makes this great, at least in my mind.
Anyway: This originally began airing on Super Deluxe in four parts, with a few extra title cards. It flows great as one long thing, though. It seems like it’s supposed to be one long thing, in my opinion. I watched both versions, curious to see if there was a lack of censorship in the one scene where Frank freaks out and starts cussin’ up the wake of his lady love. The version I saw was still censored. It’s on Brad Neely’s Youtube channel. The thing is, these probably wound up on Adult Swim’s site as well in this format, so maybe the shorts got bleeped too, and and maybe that’s what survives. Not sure.
Hey! GUESS WHAT? I have a wonderful surprise for you.
What follows is my attempt to piece together a complete listing of Brad Neely videos that were ever uploaded to Super Deluxe, along with upload dates and times. I’ve also included the descriptions from Super Deluxe. Where available, there are YouTube links. Shortly after this special, Super Deluxe was absorbed into Adult Swim’s website, where they offered a fraction of the Super Deluxe library with additional censorship to meet Adult Swim’s standards and practices.
NOTE: The running times listed are as they appeared on the Super Deluxe listing. I included them on the off chance that they would be required to help identify a particular video that may or may not have been retitled. For the most part it was unnecessary, but I don’t feel like deleting them. A few of the videos had a 0:00 running time attached, which is why some of them are not noted. I assume that was a glitch, because none of these videos are 0 seconds long.
ALSO NOTE: first there was a non-Super Deluxe short: Washington. I was trying to pin down a date, but the best I could do was I found an article from December of 2006 that said it played as part of the Spike and Mike Festival of Animation. I went to re-find this article and couldn’t. I guess that’s what I get for haphazardly closing tabs. A Brad Neely interview from the Super Deluxe era reveals that he sold the rights to the short to Spike and Mike along with the characters of Cox & Combes, which lead to him creating the Professor Brothers. I think they were characters from Creased Comics.

March 5, 2007 - 8:49 AM EST Professor Brothers - Office Hours (2:41) The Professor Brothers both like to make time for their students - they even schedule their office hours together.

May 26, 2008 - 8:49 AM China, IL: Part Four - The Lovers Reconcile (2:03) In the final installment of Brad Neely's four-part funeral, Baby Cakes and Frank finally come to that final stage of grief.
AFTER THIS: Adult Swim commissioned a 12-part series called America Now. You can click that link to watch all of them. I don’t have dates for those yet, but I’ll poke around at some point for those.
BEFORE ALL OF THIS: Wizard People, Dear Reader, which I think is from 2005.

Starting With the Events AFTER One True King
now ik that in book 6 Sophie felt that being Dean of evil was unimportant to her, but I'd like to think that now that she's dating Hort and she's accepting his love for her that the two took a 6-month 'honeymoon' (not really one Sophie just wanted to do something with Hort for them to bond as lovers) before one day they burst into the school demanding for their jobs back.
Also on their vacation Sophie helped Hort cope and heal with the fact that he is no longer part man-wolf and they started doing workout routines together (Something Hort wanted to do so he could be strong and protect Sophie) and beauty routines (something Sophie wanted to do because she wants them looking young and evil forever)
Also Hort helped Sophie because she had a lot of nightmares about his 'death'
And because they have their old jobs back they're menaces to the students (I love Hort's snarky comments he always made throughout the series and I NEED that)
They have matching pajamas
Sophie got Hort frog pj's for his 17th birthday (he almost cried)
Sophie always asks for Hort's opinion on her outfits for each day
They always eat meals together, even if one is working late the other will bring the lunch/dinner to their office and they'll eat and talk for hours
Usually if they get into fights Hort is the first to apologize (even if it wasn't his fault) but sometimes Sophie will apologize and make him a cake
Hort writes bad poetry but Sophie secretly loves it
A lot of Hort's students flirt with Hort even though they know he's with Sophie and she gets jealous of it (this starts one of the fights that Sophie apologizes first)
Hort started to open up more to Sophie about his family and she sometimes talks about hers too
every year when they do Secret Santa's with their friends (Hester, Anadil, William, Bogden, Tedros, Agatha, Beatrix, Kiko) they always cheat to make sure that they get each other for Secret Santa's and always act surprised when they give each other the gifts (their friends are always suspicious of them)
Hort writes Sophie bad poetry that she pretends to hate but secretly loves
They go to balls as often as they could
Hort always makes Sophie her favourite breakfast in the mornings and she always makes his lunch, even if she does burn it sometimes, he still eats it
When Tagatha had children they were made the godparents
that also got Hort and Sophie thinking about kids
they send each other letters each class to tell the other how much they miss each other (their students are either disgusted or find it cute)
Sophie is a terrible singer, and Hort knows it, but he still loves hearing her sing
Hort will leave Sophie flowers in her office every morning and it will always be her favourite (roses)
Sophie secretly loves Hort's little comic of them as Bort and Lophie
Sophie calls Hort: her weasel, froggy, her prince, the beast, Horty, Hort, darling, sweetie
and if anyone tries to call him any of them (besides Hort) she'll curse them
Hort calls Sophie: my queen, Soph, my love, and Sophie
While Hort grades papers and Sophie's with him she'll doodle random things on his hand
Hort doesn't like parties, so whenever it's his birthday Sophie makes him his favourite breakfast and they celebrate it together alone
But for Sophie's birthday he always makes sure to get her a big birthday party, But Sophie always tells him that she'd be happy with something small with him
Sophie taught Hort how to french kiss
Some people still pick on Hort (especially the other teachers) and Sophie will always stand up for him
a lot of the teachers HATE Sophie's changes to the Evil school (which she had to redo after they took down her ideas but now they're a little less Sophie) and try to argue with her about it but Hort stands up for her and is always supportive of the ideas
Sometimes they'll cuddle for hours and not say anything and that's all they need
Hort proposed to Sophie when they turned 18 (it wasn't easy either there was so many interruptions)

Ocean headcanons!!!
She is the queen of sneaking out because she doesn’t wanna walk by her high as hell parents and have to be asked to smoke with them
Every member of the choir has threatened to steal her at least once
She seems like the type of person to just casually mention her childhood trauma as like a personal anecdote
Ocean: Yeah so once my dad was really high and really paranoid and he thought I had broken into the house so he chased me around with a knife and-
Noel: I’m sorry he WHAT-
She pretends that she loves every subject but she secretly hates History
The teacher is like 200 years old and is somehow simultaneously the loudest and quietest person on earth
In other words: She is mostly unintelligible to most people
Noel is like one of the only people who understands her so he debriefs the choir on her lessons every day
Ocean will never admit that he is the only reason that she is passing that class
She has only been drunk one time and she ended up dying her hair purple and singing Party in the USA with Noel using Mischa’s karaoke machine
It was mostly fun besides the part where she fell off of a table and got a headache but she never did it again after her parents said that they were glad that she was “finally mellowing out”
She has a shelf of awards in her room
Every now and then she’ll go through a phase where she tries to throw out all of her trophies and medals and stuff because “they don’t really mean anything so what’s the point!” and Noel saves them every time because he knows that once she snaps out of it that she’ll be really mad if she actually did throw them all out
This becomes especially frequent after the Cyclone and Noel at one point threatens to “go all Monique Gibeau on your ass if I have to pull another fucking Spelling Bee trophy out of your goddamn garbage can” which results in a resounding “language”
It also results in Ocean laughing (like, full on laughing) for like the first time since the Cyclone happened and Noel was in such shock that he couldn’t even make fun of her
He didn’t even want to make fun of her afterwards either he just bragged to the choir about it
Constance tries teaching how to cook once
It does not end well
Ocean never wants to except help for anything so Constance just pretends that she needs help with stuff and then figured out a way to twist it into her helping Ocean
Ocean is the official watcher for Mischa when he’s drunk
Like she’ll get a call at one in the morning and she’ll already be opening her window and halfway out of it before Mischa can even get a single word out
She likes watching over him though because he gets all sappy and nice
She also gets to record a bunch of funny moments like the time where he tried to sing the entirety of This Song is Awesome in one breath and almost passed out
Ricky shows her his comics and she finds out that she really likes Spiderman comics
She considers Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse to be their movie since they’ve seen it over 20 times
Ricky also considers it to be their movie but he is much more open to the idea of letting other people into their movie sessions than Ocean is
People look at Ocean and Mischa and they’re always like “Woah look at that huge scary dude!” When in reality the real scary one is the feral redhead
They’re like a pitbull and a chihuahua
There’s an abandoned playground in town that Penny loves ‘dragging’ Ocean to
I say ‘dragging’ because Ocean absolutely loves to go but she thinks it will ruin her ‘reputation’ if she shows it
They like having one of them sit in the middle of those big spinny circles with the bars while the other one grabs on to on of the bars and just runs around till they get tired
They call it ‘Hurricane Penny’ because Penny’s the one that came up with the game so she gets naming rights
Penny swears that she saw a ghost one time when in reality it was just Ocean trying to regain her senses after Hurricane Penny
She doesn’t condone violence and is super against it until you insult a member of the choir
Mischa heard that some guys were picking on her
He got suspended the very next day

GMORNING !!!!! u know what time it is
EPISODE 8 TRIVIA:
- the big monster they fought in the beginning was called a Crawling Apocalypse which looks like this. terrifying !!!
Tumblr media
- bizly really liked that william banished it. he was originally not gonna let him do that but then "i realized your character can do so little and that was cool so i said fuck it" we love william pity points he is such a loser and he rolls so terribly <3
- they start talking about one piece because grizzlys saying things abt how certain parts of dakota are inspired by luffy and bizly goes "ive never watched anime" which is the biggest lie in the world
- grizzly: "yknow we were about an hour into the episode before i realized wow i havent done anything productive yet"
condi: "you just hit on vyncents mom for like 20 minutes!!!!"
- and then they start talking about how dakota and chip (bizlys pc from riptide) would either be best friends or hate each other which is really funny bc there are now MULTIPLE what if crossover episodes where they meet and interact and thats exactly the dynamic . i love them
- condi wasnt expecting his dad to be dead, he thought theyd have to fight him
- he kind of hesitated taking the sword !! vyncent doesnt really know how to feel about using something that belonged to his father
- he wasnt entirely Present for the part where his dad betrayed the party, he was sort of fading in and out of consciousness so theres a chance he didnt actually get the full picture. condi knows this out of character and vyncent knows it in the back of his mind somewhere that his dad might not actually be fully evil but hes too angry to come to terms with that yet
- hes struggling a lot with the fact that his mom.doesnt know about the betrayal. he doesnt want to tell her because "its not his fathers pride at stake, its his mother's memory of him" and that makes me so . :(
- THE GREATS!!!!!!!! THE GREATS ARE HERE i love the greats. surely nothing bad is happening to them
- they have a couple theories as to whats going on with the greats:
-- condi: theyre in this state because vyncent took too long getting them back here out of his head
-- condi: they were killed when they got transported to the other world and there was no way to get them back completely
-- charlie: something happened in the time where vyncent was transported to prime and the greats had died, so someone did something to keep them alive by putting them in his head. maybe they could only be kept alive by being in vyncents head
- grizzly tries to insight check bizly irl to see if any of their theories are close so far. this does not work . he rolled a 17 btw
- none of them trust minerva they think she might be secretly working with the lich. bizly defends her by saying "shes also in the middle of basically an apocalypse i think shes allowed to be a little mean to you"
- le frog is the only french person ever. this is brought up with NO context no explanation
- bizly is sharing some of the thumbnail art from youtube because this was right around the time the first few episodes were being put up publically !! most of them are just the same as the official refs but the most important one is le frog bc im not actually sure if youve seen his offical design yet . also tide used to be white. we dont have to talk about white tide
Tumblr media
- bizly says pd feels more like a DC comic than a Marvel comic. hes right about this
- charlie starts talking about marissa meyer books and this is important 2 me because the lunar chronicles was an extremely formative piece of media for me . she apparently has a book called renegades thats superhero themed and i have not read it yet but i put it on my list specifically because of this. wahoo!
tgis is SUCH good trivia for this ep thank u dude... ouagh. really solid meal here. i love these last couple episodes so much.. there's so much fun stuff happening here i'm enjoying all of the greats stuff & getting like a solid Vyncent Moment for a while.
i LOVE the william pity points its great! it WAS cool as fuck!! also i gain +5 hp every time a gm goes "who give a shit if this isn't technically how the game mechanics should work, it's fun for everyone at the table & makes for something cool and makes sense narratively."
that being said. i DID take SO MUCH PSYCHIC DAMAGE from how long dakota spent hitting on his fucking mom. Please. Please king !!! sob.
I ALSO WAS EXPECTING THEM TO FIGHT VYN'S DAD???? still not unconvinced that some lich undead bullshit isn't going to happen with that. god i'm so invested in figuring out what HAPPENED there... i love this type of murder mystery situation. & i also was genuinely unsure if he would take the sword or not!! really kind of an ohhh shit! moment when he did. imo. vyncent virion sol i love u.... also it's still INCREDIBLY funny 2 me that he's still in his normal clothes. i have not forgotten that he is just doin his fantasy bullshit thing in the just some guy drip. (<- i might have forgotten something but i've been assuming they no longer have/wear Official Hero Drip since they're no longer really sanctioned or on great terms w/ them? also i've been assuming that the episode-specific clothes & shit isn't really permanent... now that im thinking about it though please tell me wiwi hardcore blue flame black leather kickass spiky biker jacket remains. it's too cool for him. but. still.)
I LOVE THE GREATS SO MUCH... i hope nothing permanently bad happens to them :( i like them so dearly..... you know they r really solid folks because they spent a YEAR and change living in a teenager's brain & came out of the experience still bein so nice 2 him.... augh. also in general big fan of the system-adjacent bullshit :] i love it when theres. guy with guys in his head. etc. will b sad ab their departure but i hope they r OKAY and return 2 Being Alive & shit!! nervous laughter. also god i can't wait to find out what Actually Happened with them. hhrhrghghgghh.
THIS IS SO TRUE ALSO???? free my girl minerva she did nothing but have Literally Normal Reactions to TERRIBLE things happening!!!
I DON'T LIKE THAT LEFROG FACT. it raises the question of is he actually even french or like, is there even a point of reference for his behavior. like. What is going on there. Horrifying thank you!!!! also man this entire degree im working on would be useless! well. maybe prime quebec exists. somehow. independently of a hypothetical europe. HIS DESIGN IS SO FUN BTW. its so cute.. i WAS kind of imagining a mutant Big Real Fucking Frog situation but i think this is a lot more reasonable. also literally ignoring white tide I Do Not See it. It Does Not Exist.
ALSO. NOT GOING TO START TALKING AB COMICS FOR EVEN MORE PARAGRAPHS. BUT. he is so so so right. (<- dc comics guy with Opinions. well. technically im not even much of a dc guy im just a vertigo guy. but. still.) hghghghbhgh.

what are some of your fab four religion headcanons? it’s super fun to think about that in a universe with at least two canon deities and how people react to the proof so to speak of those existing
great question!! i have a thought of thoughts abt this (wonder why lmao) and also i am in love with you for asking :D /p
(also holy shit this turned out way longer than i thought it would ghgdhdgh)
first off, most people in the city are not religious. bli heavily discourages any and all religious practices and has been in the process of trying to erase all evidence/memory of religion for decades. religion's one of the many things that becomes more common (secretly practiced) the further from city center you get, which is why some of the biggest believers in the city are actually the droids living in the lobby. their graffiti bible detailing the eventual rise of destroya and defeat of bli is the most widespread religious text in the city, though thats not to say some families and individuals havent held on to their own and passed down their own beliefs in secret. destroya is just the most common name to be heard in whispered conversations about salvation, and as such destroya is the first godlike figure party and kobra ever hear of
party learns about destroya as right as that first real spark of rebellion is staring to grow in them and they stop taking the pills. they start hanging out in the more "dangerous" parts of town and talking with droids and neutrals and juviees on supply runs, and they start learning about this mystical figure whose supposed to come save them- save them *all*- and it gives them their first real and true feeling hope hope. its what inspires them to get out of the city, and while life in the zones makes them turn resentful of the idea for a time, i think once they find the girl something just clicks in their mind, and they realize that the stories were real and this kid is special and shes gonna be the one to save them and for the first time in years they feel that same spark of hope
party's relationship with the witch though,,,,, yes okay fine its a lot of me heavily projecting on them again. that should be expected by now tbh. they get out there and they learn about the witch and they hear all these believers talking about how she loves them and she cares for them and she takes care of them and guides them after death. and party just fucking hates the idea of that, that theres some all powerful deity out there who loves them but refuses to help. they do think she's real, they've died and come back enough times and felt the universe shift around them to know that shes out there. but all they can feel for her is bitter contempt. stealing a quote from my own fic here (which is largely abt party's relationship with the witch/death) "Of course I think she’s real, but I don’t believe in a damn thing she does.” they are angry and they blame her for a lot of the things theyre angry for and they hate the fact that theres a part of themself that feels the urge to pray whenever things get really really bad
kobra's stance on both deities is a lot more neutral. he is an idiot who looooves to tempt fate and taunt death, and so he figures theres gotta be something looking out for him since he hasnt actually died yet when he really really should've. still, he doesnt really believe in destroya or the witch all that much. he grew up with party relaying promises about destroya to him as bedtimes stories, but since they were both still kids it all came across to him as a more mythical, comic book-esque character than anything. he finds it hard to put his faith into something that seems to fictionalized. with the witch, on the other hand, his feelings started off a bit more like party's- a lot of anger and spite and disbelief. but then he meets cherri who is so in tune with the witch, who so wholeheartedly believes in and loves and worships her. kobra loves listening to cherri talk, and the passion in her voice when she talks about the witch especially is enough for kobra to think that maybe, sometimes, he does believe in her just a bit. at the very least he believes in cherri- maybe he worships her and her poetry more than anything and maybe thats not a bad thing
out of the fab four jet and ghoul i typically see as the most religious, having grown up in the desert, the witch was always a big part of their lives. jet especially, prays a lot and looks for signs/omens like feathers. both always have at least one strand of badluck beads on them, but ghoul i think is a bit more superstitious. he needs to have his mask on him or within sight at all times- its bad lock to lose track of it, it means death is looking for you. he doesnt like to go outside for at least a day after it rains- acid rain or not. one of his old crewmates used to tell him that rainfall was the tears of a grieving universe, and even now he thinks its only right that he give the world a day to bask in its grief before he intrudes on it again. both jet and ghoul obviously are quick to collect masks in the aftermath of a fight, whether its one they were in or one they stumbled upon. but where jet prays for safe passage while collecting the masks, ghoul counts the bodies- different numbers of dead being different omens of good or bad fortune. they both always light the candles at the mailboxes when dropping off masks to let the witch know where to find the lost souls. jet leaves strands of beads and painted rocks as an offerings, while ghoul leaves offerings of food and words hed never speak to anyone else (to share a secret is to bare your true soul to someone, and there is no greater offering for the witch, he was taught)

Eddie headcanons with no basis in the show, I just think he’s like this (these are personal headcanons, if you don’t like them you can just ignore them)
He hates Fanta, no real reason, he just used to drink it all the time and now it disgusts him
Loves chili nuts and spicy things in general. I heard somewhere that if you like spicy things your more likely to like pain and bdsm sooo
We know he’s total metal head, but he secretly likes everybody wants to rule the world, he’ll never admit it though
Loves gorey horror movies and comics even if they used to give him nightmares
Completely believes in ghosts, used to find everything in the library about it and when will disappeared his singing caught onto eddies radio once and completely freaked him out
Helped Jonathan out in a fight because they shared freak status, even though they weren’t really friends
Doesn’t let people touch his hair because people used to make a game out of who could touch it without him noticing
This also made hate touch in general. Unless he trusts you fully (like Dustin) he’s not super into physical touch.
Erica is his favorite Sinclair, but don’t tell Lucas that
He loves his uncle to death and if anything happened to him he’d kill everyone in his Hawkins and then himself (j/ but he does love him to bits and trusts him with everything)
His uncle doesn’t care that he’s gay, he just wants to make sure he’s safe
Eddie originally got his bandana for a pirate costume but found out about hanky code and kept wearing it
Debated for weeks on whether he should cut his Dio tshirt for his battle vest because he loved it so much
Biting people is his love language and bit Steve the first time they made out
He likes metal because he feels like someone understands his frustration and he has community in it
One of his ears is pierced but he has so much hair you can’t see it
Robin and him talk about their crushes who both somehow still think they’re straight (Nancy and Steve are a little slow but it’s fine they’ll figure it out)
Robin and him have queers night (instead of girls night) where they watch rocky horror and other queer movies and paint their nail (eddie is horrible at it but he’s learning)
His favorite colour is pink, just because
He makes fun of Steve for liking Grease even though he likes it too
Steve dressed as Danny Zuko for a Halloween party and Eddie had to hold himself back from jumping him then and there
Huge anti-racist and will punch anyone who bullies Lucas or Erica (or any poc for that matter)
Does literally any dare you give him except for cutting his hair, once he had to wear a full face of makeup to school, he was bullied BUT he found out he looks fucking great in eyeliner
Mike has a little crush on him and grows his hair out to look like him
If he could make money from being DM it would be his job
When he cant sleep he spends all night preparing his next DnD session
He comes up with some of his weirder monsters while high, like an undead giant bat infested with a virus that gives it tentacles and sucks out your life force through said tentacles (when he was sober he decided not to use that monster, but he has used others)
Never learnt how to sew on a sewing machine (they can’t afford one), but can sew simple things, mend rips and put patch up ruined clothes
Making the hellfire shirts is kind of expensive, but he makes sure to sell some extra weed so every member can have one
He’s great at making someone feel comfortable when their nervous (like with Chrissy) and really does just want to help people
If Chrissy had survived they would have been great friends, he would have showed her Black Sabbath and she would have showed him Duran Duran.
I headcanon her as bisexual or lesbian who doesn’t know yet and came to Eddie partly because of rumors that he was gay (and the weed obviously)
He would have helped her with feeling less weird about being queer
When the party is being bullied in school he makes a giant fuss about it, being as dramatic as possible to get the attention on him instead, that’s how Mike, Lucas and Dustin first met him
He was ecstatic when he found out Will could draw and commissioned a piece of one of his DnD characters (he cried a little because will got the character just right and eddie hadn’t been able to draw him they way he wanted too)
Eddie doodles in class, has some skill in drawing but doesn’t really use it outside of that and making corroded coffins album cover (he’s thought about asking Will to help him with it)
He had a crush on Steve when he was still “king steve” (because look at him) and hated himself for it because Steve was an asshole
Steve got annoyed when he called him “king steve” so he calls him princess instead (he’s still a bit annoyed but thinks it’s funny)
Makes Steve listen to a lot of metal when they hang out, it’s not really his style but gets why Eddie likes it
Steve always woops the loudest when corroded coffin play and Eddie kisses him silly after
Absolutely loves liquorice and Steve always watches him with disgust when he eats it
Lowkey wants to bleach his hair, but cares about it too much to ruin it
Unless he’s cutting layers he’s never touching a pair of scissors to his hair
Literally just uses body wash as shampoo BUT uses a really nice conditioner he has to sell a little extra for
That battle vest is crunchy as hell and there is no way he’s ever washed it
Steve tries to wash some of the blood out before giving it back, but Eddie just thinks it’s metal as fuck. I mean Imagine have Steve Harringtons blood on your jacket (he is a little sad it bled through the Dio patch though)
Eddie tells him he looks hot in his vest so Steve buys a vest of his own (he doesn’t put patches on it but his arms look great)
He spends forever on writing a song about everything that’s happened and dedicates a whole verse to Steve and one in honor of Chrissy
He’s alive and happy and no one thinks he’s a cultist and a murderer

RANDOM!!! STRANGER THINGS!!! HEADCANONS!!!!
*puts them in a blender*
el has autism and is too shy and kind to say when someone is making a noise that's bothering her. max is not. she scolds the party every time (especially mike) they do stuff like chewing loudly.
el also starts keeping a diary, sometimes she steals sketches will doesn't even remember having made and puts them in her diary.
she tries to cook brownies for joyce once and almost burns down the kitchen.
the brownies come out surprisingly good tho.
when max is in the hospital, she makes some for her hoping she wakes up.
coincidentally, max wakes up the same week. they are now called "el's miracle brownies".
when they're alone, el drives max's wheelchair with her superpowers.
now that max is blind, every time she's walking with lucas, he tells her to be careful whenever there's some minor obstacle. she always answers to "ok I'm not dumb" but secretly loves it.
while max was in a coma, mike used to rant about how he hates himself. one day she just tells him he's actually a good person. he cries. she regrets it immediately.
and now... time for the byler hcs!!!!
once mike tells the party he's gay, lucas and dustin figure out immediately he has a crush on will (they're not dumb, duh). they tease him about it all the time.
on the other hand will is going INSANE because what does it mean that mike is gay???!!! and does it have something to do with that one time he told will he was his favorite person???!!!??!!
max says it's obvious it does have something to do with that. will still doesn't believe her.
both el and max are supportive of will but make fun of him every time because he has a crush on mike and come on, that guy has like, one braincell.
as I said, they're still supportive though, so they make a plan to make them go on a date.
will asks mike out but immediately starts overthinking it because what if he thinks it's just a 'friends' thing and he's reading the whole situation wrong.
on the other hand mike-rocks-for-brain-wheeler is completely panicking because ok this is not a date, (it is, lucas says), why does it feel like a date then??
he goes to nancy to ask for advice and worst idea ever, she already knew from jonathan will was going out so she does the math. she totally has to find out from jonathan what happens later. he mentally makes a note to act like she doesn't exist for the next two weeks.
anyways the date goes well and mike tries to kiss him but will just goes in for a hug.
two seconds later he's processing what just happened and he's like hold up did you just try to kiss me?
and mike is like I mean yes but like no I mean if you want to. did you want to kiss me?
and will just kisses him.
will tells jonathan everything, who tells nancy everything, who starts teasing mike. mike literally wants to go live in hopper's old cabin (which is now empty bc hopper moved in with joyce).
once mike tries to throw a pebble at will's window at night. the window breaks. he doesn't try a second time.
will proposes in 2003, they can't get married though so they promise each other that they will as soon as it's legal (they still get married illegally in 2003 though, courtesy of jim hopper)
joyce cries like a fountain on that day.
they make a comic together and they travel the world. one day they decide to just move to italy.

What shows and movies from the modern day would El and Mike love and watch? 😊
Oooo! This is a good one, because I’m extra I gotta do it for all of them lol
I think the entire party (mostly the boys) would all love Game of Thrones and Star Wars and comic book movies of varying degrees. I think they would also like anime but I'm not too sure if I think someone would like it more than the others.
Mike seems like he would like fantasy/sci fi/adventure shows but ones with really good characters and writing since he’s a creative writer. I think he would love stuff like Supernatural, Game of Thrones (he would have read those books), definitely Lord of the Rings. I feel like he would also like Star Wars and Star Trek but not as much as Dustin. He’d like the comic book movies.
El would love the The Bachelor/The Bachlorette, 90 Day Fiancé and all that since she likes soap operas, which she might still tune into. I feel like she would be into the “reality” shows. El and Mike would watch some of these shows together and he hates them but he secretly likes them, he'd be like "are you watching the episode without me??"
Dustin would looooove Star Wars but I can also see him watching stuff like CSI and other kind of sci-fi shows. But he loved Firefly and is still mad it was cancelled.
Lucas loved The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and he watched All American but likes action, suspense and thrillers movies. I feel like he would looove Mission Impossible and he'd be into some of the war movies. He would also love some of the blaxploitation movies too. I can see him being a fan of John Singleton movies, maybe even Spike Lee. He enjoys the Fast and Furious movies.
I feel like Max doesn't watch a lot of television and movies but when she does, she likes comedies. I feel like she'd be a sitcom girl. But she liked Black Mirror.
Will likes horror movies, so he'll be checking out stuff like Hereditary. But I think since he'd be an animator in doing art something, he would be interested in how they did stuff. So he would watch it and enjoy it but then like to figure out how they did the special effects. But he would also watch fantasy stuff too, I think he'd like The Sandman.
Jonathan... hm I not sure. I can see him just watching whatever Nancy is watching because he likes to sit with her.
Nancy for sure watches Law and Order, I think she'd give any law show a chance but Law and Order is her jam. Grey's Anatomy for sure. Mad Men. I can see her also enjoying The Handmaid's Tale. She also loved Sex and the City even though she critiques some of the stuff.
Steve liked Breaking Bad and probably The Wire and constantly talks about them lol.
Robin is a connoisseur of tv shows and movies, she'll give anything a try but she watches Grey's Anatomy with Nancy.

Mike x Max friendship headcanons
(Blaming @berrymoos for this as we talk abt them so much I couldn’t not post something)
(The amount of time I spent finding a gif of them is embarrassing)
Tumblr media
Firstly their classifications which are both flips with a little lean
They are ‘twins’ because one time they were arguing in the back of the car over who was older so bad that Nancy made Steve pull over so she could turn and go “you are now twins, same birthday, same age” the pair accepted it
Twins means shared birthday party’s and themes (ie. Skateboards and dnd, California and photography (cough cough my photographer Mike Hc))
They have such a sibling like love/hate relationship
The passive aggressiveness is unmatched by anyone in the party
When they’re little they always fight about dumb stuff that quickly turns not dumb when Mikes starts throwing things and Max starts reeling back punches
Poor Lucas and Will have to stop them from killing each other on a regular basis
Then again, they would set fire to anyone who dares be mean to their twin. Have and will argue or get physical with people in the others defense
Max tries to teach Mike how to skate and he does surprisingly well, much to the rest of the party’s annoyance as they all suck
The adhd those two share is something nobody ever comes close to understanding
They stim together but it’s not the normal ones, no they’ll just stand and scream at each other with laughs being the only thing to break it up
Mike listens to max talk about comics when nobody wants to hear it and max let’s Mike talk about cameras when nobody wants to hear it
Max got Mike his first Polaroid camera for one of their birthdays
Mike got max a brand new skate set up that he was going to build himself but didn’t want to do it wrong
They like to play pranks on Steve together as he is their older brother unofficially
They tried to play pranks on nance and John but ended up feeling too bad when Johnny got super scared at max in her Micheal myers mask and nance had to comfort him
Being flips mean they can care for the other and they secretly love it more than anything else
It’s like they can talk without words, they just know things, they have the twin powers™️
They are the most reckless and fast drivers of the group and give Steve a heart attacks every time he takes them out to practice driving
They do that thing of “well if max isn’t going I’m not going” and “If Mike won’t do it then I won’t do it” no matter the headspace they are in
Mike has stomped down the school halls to yell at a teacher being mean to Max, he got detention but seeing Max’s small smile makes up for it all
As much as Mike and Max do pranks on Steve together, sometimes Mike will go pull one on Steve by himself but tell Max about it so she can see the reaction if Max is having a particularly hard day
They talk about a lot of depressing and serious topics that they can’t with others of the party
Steve and Robin are they’re favored older kids and they never stop themselves from annoying either of the pair
Mike honestly leans to Robin while Max leans to Steve
Max lets Mike do her hair back into braids but then he has to let her do it to him
Max drags Mike outside to play games when they’re little as he’s much rather just sit on the floor coloring with Johnny
They death glare each other and it is ruthless
But sometimes Mike doesn’t mean it and he just has rbf so he gets very confused on why Max is staring him down
They swap music all the time and Max will share cassettes with Mike and only Mike nobody else >:3
Mikes really quiet and mumbly when he’s little but max is the complete opposite so sometimes it sounds like Max is talking to herself when really Mikes too whispery to hear
Steve and Robin call Mike “mouse” while Max gets called “tiger” for the obvious reasons
Lucas also pulls out those nicknames when they aren’t small and both of them blush like mad men
Mike will share food with Max but nobody else and anyone who asks why will get things thrown at them
Max and Robin like to stick hair clips into Mike and Steve’s hair to make them look pretty
Both the boys love it and Steve always encourages Mike to say he likes it
Robin and Steve definitely have a picture of each kid in their wallets but shhhh that’s a secret
Mike gives max one of his old bikes even if she has her board
Max helps Mike escape family outings and such with the excuse that she needs help studying, she never does
They have a little life plan for living together when they’re older, their partners are included in it but a lot of it is just what their shared apartment would look like

LDOMLT 7 :
  ahhh you painted JK's picture so perfectly. Black outfit, chains and chunky shoes is so him !!!
  “You weren’t kidding about his ass!” nope, we do not joke about Park Jimin's ass in this house !!!!
  can i just say how comfortably mundane this sideline stories are, like nothing much just reader going about her day and mention of the devil here and there directly and indirectly.
  “Wonho would love a third. He can barely keep up with me.  why does this feel so normal, like there is no other way i could have imagined Jimin to be in.
lol her struggle is so comical really and what a journey has she embarked upon from jerking off to yoongi's memory to almost submitting herself in studio, from screaming wrong person's name after begging them to fuck her in a very specific manner to seeing Yoongi everywhere quite litreally. poor woman has it bad and the devil is to blame. aahhhhhhhhhhh
@reader and i'm sorry but not only you are emotionally dense, you are also a poor observant as to how little baby goth really looks at you, which is both apparent to the guy you are hate fucking and your best friend who has only seen him for the first time !!!
and i wonder what was she hoping for really with which speed she just fled from her seat at the bar to see Yoongi! oh god stop following him, what are you even going to say ?? let's check out the bathroom at this bar ????? i want to boop and see if you are real or a figment of my imagination!!!!! GET A GRIP WOMAN !!!!
You don’t hear from Jimin after Jungkook drops you off that night, and you’re too stubborn to text first, secretly hoping he’ll make the first move and apologize for reading you for filth unprovoked. YOU EXASPRATE ME CHILD, REALLY
overworking herself to avoid thinking about things at hand or to face the consequences of what happened, i feel you !
Presentation room.
Better than his damn office, you think to yourself, and then two more texts pop up. are you sure woman ??are you ???
“Now, Yoongi,” you snap.
At this, his head snaps up. “Well, some of us got tapped to give a fucking presentation to the visiting overseas team. Tomorrow!” ssshhhhh deep breathes!!!! at least they are talking, this is still better than just running away ......
not gonna lie watching yoongi fumble at at least somethings is very very satisfying....
but his only response is the jerk of his adam’s apple in a hard swallow. heloo???? presentation ?????
“Finish the presentation,”  whoa whoa nice to meet you miss ocassionaly-soft-dom-especially-when-you-want-yoongi-to-control
“We don’t have time, Yoongi.” Your hands fist in his shirt to pull him closer, and he steps in between your spread legs. “Just fuck me.” and there we have LDMOLT reader going down in the history as the woman who denied MIN YOONGI'S MOTHERFUCKING TONGUE !!!!!
i cannot believe that so far they are fucking like animals with only their genitals connected that mere thought of holding each other during sex sounds so reckless to her brain......
“Come.” His lips brush against yours when he says it, a touch so light it could’ve been an accident. FIST ON THE TABLE FIST in THE MOUTH SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT MY FAV MOMENT IN THE CHEP!!!!! oh god but you really love to edge huh!!!!!!!!!!!
whoa whoa what a turn that took in the end with finally them behaving like humans !!guess more fluff is coming (?)

WIP Sunday
I'm sorry to say that today hasn't been a very fruitful writing day. But I did get a scene with Tyvokka and Jaster written down. Pretty much, the only context needed is Tyvokka comes to Jaster to warn him about a Force vision he's seen with the warning that you shouldn't take it as a forgone conclusion and there's always a choice or a path that will bring that particular future about. So you know, your basic Jedi nonsense which Mando soooooo love to hear. I quickly debated Tyvokka giving Jaster the ol' shovel talk but truthfully? I kinda hate them. It usually comes across kinda possessive of the person you're trying to warn the party off of them. Not to mention taking way their agency and right to make their own choices. It’s got this icky connotation that the one giving the shove talk doesn’t trust the person to be an adult etc. Maybe they don’t want you to fight their own battles for them and wow welcome to my anti-shovel talk Ted Talk.
I DID think about doing a reverse shovel talk and having Jaster go in expecting the 'Don't you hurt my son' talk. And thought instead. "Be careful that my son does not hurt you. He's a Jedi and he will always choose his duties over you' sorta speech. Cause I love my expectation subversion. Not too sold on this but we'll see. As always, super rough draft, no editing blah blah blah. I might end up switching up the quotation marks on Tyvokka's speech to the same « » thingies they use in the comics. Though I feel like that is just them translating Shyriiwook. We'll see. I'm not completely in love with this scene and may end up re-doing it. Tyvokka seems remarkable chill over Plo kinda skating the edge of acceptable Jedi behavior in having a regular romantic partner.
I might have him give him a come to Jesus speech, I don't know. Again ugh I hate it and it's kinda troperiffic too. But I figure from the Jedi side of things the person who would totally be able to read through Jaster and Plo's super bad attempts at hiding their relationship would be Tyvokka. So we'll see, I suppose? Also wow El how many times can you say we'll see I suppose in the span of two paragraphs? A shit ton, I suppose.
“You are talking like this is some holonovel where good defeats evil and everyone lives happily ever after. But real life isn’t like that, Mandalorian. It isn’t that neat or tidy.” Tyvokka didn’t mince words and while it was strange hearing the crisp Core-worlds Coruscanti accent try to convey the same level of gruff harshness that he could hear in the Wookie’s actual tone of voice. 
But honestly, Jaster could appreciate that brutal honesty. 
“Alright, fine, I will try not to let my hatred for Tor make me stupid.” 
“Good. There is one other thing, this was much more....nebulous. I think there may be a traitor in your camp. Or at least one who has ill intentions. I could not see that detail very clearly, but some kind of betrayal is what will set you on the path toward the destruction that I foresaw.”
“That’s not saying a lot, I’m sorry to say. Half of them barely want to be here and are probably secretly hoping this whole affair crashes and burns.” Jaster felt awful that when he said that, his mind immediately went to Montross and the sort of cold war the two’s once strong partnership had devolved into. 
“That division in your ranks might explain what I was sensing, but I suspect there is more to it. I will meditate on this.” 
“I won’t lie, it all sounds a little far-fetched to me but I have spent enough time around Plo Koon to know that the Force <I>osik</I> you Jedi get up to is real enough. And I am man enough to admit that I don’t know or am capable of understanding the many and varied workings of the universe around me.”
Tyvokka eyed the Mandalorian curiously and with piercing golden eyes. He’d heard enough false modesty to recognize when someone was putting on a facade and Jaster Mereel was not. It didn’t exactly fit with the image he had of what a Mandalorian would be. 
At first, when he’d heard of the strange friendship between Plo and this Mandalorian, it had sounded like one of the most bizarre things he’d heard in his many centuries of living. 
He’d long suspected there might be more to that friendship and while as a Jedi, he did not wish to see Plo Koon come to a point where he might have to choose between his duties as a Jedi and his curious choice of lovers. 
The part of him that had nurtured and cared for the boy like he was his own wanted to see him happy. And this man seemed to make him happy so really, what more could he ask for? 
“You’re looking at me like you’re considering which kind of wine my liver would best pair with again.” The human joked and Tyvokka snorted inelegantly. 
“I was never fond of liver anyway. Now kidneys on the other hand. And humans have two, right? Even better.” 
He half expected the man to wince or cringe back, but the Mandalorian was made of sterner stuff and just laughed sharply. 
“Hands off my kidneys and my liver. I’m using them.”
“You’re the one who keeps mentioning me eating them. How was I to know you were not making me some strange Mandalorian offering?”
“I know we have a reputation for being rough and uncivilized but even we don’t participate in cannibalism.” Jaster snorted and climbed to his feet carefully. “I appreciate the heads up though. Seriously. Stars know when it comes to Tor Vizsla, I tend to get tunnel vision.”
“You must learn to let that anger and hate go, Mandalorian. That is the path to the Dark side. You may not be a Jedi but it can still taint your heart and poison your mind.”
“Easier said than done, I am afraid.”
“Anything worth doing is never easy. Even we Jedi struggle with our own inner demons and temptations from the Dark side. Anger and hatred are uncomplicated emotions, but ultimately, they are hollow and leave you feeling unsatisfying. That is what makes them so dangerous.” 
The dark-haired human had a strange look on his face, one that Tyvokka couldn’t quite parse out despite his centuries of dealing with his kind. 
“Some interesting food for thought.”

I keep calling out for help and nothing comes of it. I’m tired of calling out for help. I’m tired of being the bummer constantly and the one that ruins everyone’s mood and demands attention when I haven’t done anything to deserve attention.
My friends are just… all gone. I kind of made a new one??? But all the ones I’ve ever counted on… have just turned into these creatures. Like feral cats or something. I’m their little plaything and they like to poke and prod at me when they’re bored and that’s it. If I need something, they’re not there. If they need something, I’m always there.
But then again, I’m horrible. I’m short-tempered and rude and brutally honest and I set boundaries with hostility and I demand too much. And my company isn’t actually enjoyable, I’m there for comic relief and nothing deeper. My interests don’t matter. My needs don’t matter. I’m thought about when I’m useful and that’s it. That’s how it is with everyone.
It’s pointless now. School. Work. Friends. Everything. Eating is pointless. Sleeping is pointless. I don’t think I’ve ever been useful before. I don’t think I’ll ever be useful to anyone. The fictional characters, I can’t even convince myself that they would want me. They wouldn’t want me. There’s nothing to want.
I’m so disconnected to the entire world. To everything, everywhere. Nothing has any significance and I have no significance to anything or anyone. I’m entirely pointless and at this point I don’t even know what to yearn for. There’s no hope in anything. And I know they say you have to create your own hope but I have tried. I have tried so hard and I have tried until there’s nothing left inside of me and there is simply no more hope to be had. The planet is dying. I’m fat. I’m ugly. I’m unlikable. I’m useless. I’m the person in the friend group everyone is secretly trying to push out. I’m the one that gets left out of plans when they can get away with it. And it’s my own fault. I’m heartless. I’m poor. I’m not generous. I’m not patient. And I talk like a broken record about things no one else cares about.
There’s nothing left. I can’t even write fics like normal because Steven Grant wouldn’t want me. He wouldn’t be willing to fix me. There’s something wrong with me that would just disgust him to his core and I can’t pretend that he would see past it. I’m not enough for him and I could never offer him anything anyway. And I wouldn’t even be able to treat him the way he deserves, knowing me. It’s just stupid for me to think otherwise. And it’s selfish.
No one needs me. No one wants me. I don’t think that I want me anymore, either. I haven’t even cried about it. I just get angry, then tired, then angry, then tired. Then there’s moments of reprieve that just make me feel guilty for the anger and fatigue. It’s a pathetic, shameful pity-party. But there’s no point in trying to fix it. Because who would I be fixing it for? Nobody, because nobody wants me.
I wish that I could abuse my body more and get away with it. I want to starve myself. I want to get up at ungodly hours and drink enough coffee to down a horse. I want to take a rusty pair of scissors and carve out all the parts of myself I hate. I want to hurt until I can’t hurt anymore and I want it to destroy me. If I can’t be good I can be skinny at least. I can be hard and scarred up. I can have energy, so I can be useful. I’m just so un fucking useful. But I can’t. My body won’t work. I’ll faint. I’ll puke. I’ll dissociate so hard that I might as well be asleep with my eyes open. My hair will fall out. I’ll be unable to stand because the stomach cramps are so strong. My visual will swim.
Fucking useless. Completely useless and there’s nothing I can do. I can’t ask for help anymore. No one is going to help and I don’t deserve help.
I just want to stop.

Last Summer
Mason Mount
this is one of my old imagines that i’ve reworked. i hated the way the other came out but the idea was too good to let go so here we are <3
Tumblr media
It wasn’t a messy breakup - quite the opposite really. You both simultaneously came to the realisation that things weren’t going to work out between you, so you parted ways in the summer of last year. You never had a bad word to say about Mason. He was your rock, your best friend, and most importantly, your first love.
You cannot deny that some nights still feel extra lonely without him by your side, longing for him to be hogging the duvet all to himself to the point where you’d have to wait until he was sound asleep to even have a chance of touching the material. You miss his jokes, his smile, the way you’d have little comical arguments about anything and everything. His football banter was unmatched, throwing digs at each other whenever Chelsea came up against your childhood club, but still secretly wanting the blue's to win so you could see the contagious grin on his face as he wore the captain’s armband.
You’re still in good contact with his family, your parents becoming firm friends with his during the four years you were together. So it wasn’t that much of a shock when his sister messaged you, inviting your family to the party.
And that’s why you now find yourself stood in the Mount family’s garden, drink in hand, attempting to make small talk with other guests. You’re catching up with Lewis when his mum walks over with a smile, hand on your shoulder as she asks you to help her bring some food outside, “Can you just help with one of the extra trays, love?”
You nod happily, excusing yourself away from the older Mount son and following her inside. Trays cover the kitchen counters. The family going overboard in their usual ways of celebrating makes you smile to yourself. But your chest immediately feels heavy when you see another figure next to the fridge, hand closing the door as he holds a beer in the other.
“Mason! Help take those plates and cutlery out, don’t just stand about watching.”
You cant help but smirk to yourself as his mum gives her instructions, his eyes darting from you and back to the job that he was most likely procrastinating from.
You’re surprised he’s here in all honesty. It was a Mount family gathering, but you expected him to be abroad partying with his England teammates, not at home in Portsmouth.
He exits through the patio doors with paper plates stacked high in his hands, the cold beer that he’d been holding only moments before now sitting on the counter-top, droplets of water running down the glass bottle.
His mum notices your smile is now absent, coming forwards to wrap her arms around your shoulders, putting her hands on the sides of your face before speaking quietly, “He misses you, love.”
Her words echo around your mind for the next hour or so. You don’t know whether you should feel comforted or distraught. Knowing that at any time he’s only a mere few feet away sends even more mixed emotions racing through your mind.
Mason stays stood in the corner of the garden, trying his best to keep himself to himself. Seeing you here, on his parent’s lawn, has brought back feelings and thoughts he thought had fizzled out the day you went your separate ways.
He cant help but watch as you chat away with his older sister, the hem of the pale blue summer dress that he saw you post on Instagram blowing gently in the breeze. He’s always loved how well you’ve gotten on with his family. Their heartbreak was almost equal to yours when Mason told them that you were no longer together.
The moment he sees that laugh that he’s missed so much is when it hits him. He still loves you. He realises that never stopped in all honesty, but after a year a person begins to tell themselves that those feelings of longing and yearning for the one you love are simply fabricated; not at all real.
Every now and then you meet his gaze, both of you wanting to make the first move but neither knowing what could possibly be said at a time like this. It’s clear that you’re not as over each other as you first anticipated before walking through the door of his childhood home that afternoon, an elephant in the room that needed to be addressed before it was too late.
His parents are stood at the top of the patio whispering amongst themselves as they notice the pair of you begin to acknowledge each other. His mum was hopeful that you would remember her words to you in the kitchen, and hopefully interpret them in the way that meant seeing you and her son back together again like you had been for so many years before.
