Eddie posts a Tiktok of an old home video taken almost right after he bought a camcorder. The band has just come off the stage and they’re walking down a hallway, amped up and loud. Just boys being boys.

Gareth is filming and Eddie is talking to the camera like, “Everybody always ask me. They say, ‘Eddie, what’s it like having your boyfriend at one of your shows.’ Or they would ask me that if they won’t skin me alive for having a boyfriend.”

Gareth, who is always worried Eddie’s going to accidentally out himself: Dude

Eddie: Relax. Skin all here. We’re good. I would respond to this question that no one would ask me because no one knows I have a boyfriend by looking them deep in the eyes.

Eddie: And I’d say, ‘It’s amazing having my boyfriend here because-

Eddie: *slams the door open to their small cramped dressing room so hard it nearly dents the wall*

The walls: *literally shaking from the band current on the stage*

Steve: *Asleep, dead to the world*

Eddie: -he’s the only motherfucker who can sleep through the show.’

Eddie, crouching down next to Steve so they’re both in shot, says because they’re making this tape for his uncle, “Wayne, what are we going to do with our boy?”

Happy Birthday Baz Pitch! Never forget you were brought to this world with love.

(Also, happy birthday to the one and only @rainbowrowell)

The disastrous adventures of the Pomefiore Siameses

1989

I think that Link sometimes has episodes where he still doesn’t think that Zelda is back and she’s actually the *real* Zelda. I mean after dealing with Puppet Zelda and yiga Zelda, finding out that she transformed into a Dragon for thousands and thousands and thousands of years, I think he’s definitely had some breakdowns. Even though she’s back, he still can’t believe it sometimes.

Hear me out... Angst time

This is in alternate universe so it doesn't affect the og LE uni so anons don't come @ me • ᴖ • ｡

What if LE reader has some terminal illness ? Satoru's reaction to finding it out ? When do you think they figures out the illness ? What if she dies during labor ? Or may be when son gojo is in his teens ?

Please do this chu 🙏🏼🥺

…i’m heartbroken just reading this ask huwaa😭 i’m sooo incredibly sorry but i don’t think i’m capable of writing about terminal illness now🥹 but as of dying during labor… hmmm~

in some sick twist of fate, when the reader dies on the birthing table right in front of his eyes, gojo will absolutely go batshit afterwards🥺 he sees it all—you passing out trying to push his baby, and the heart machine morphs into a thin line, and just like that not even your baby is saved. that day, he lost 2 precious things at all once

he doesn’t even come back home—his son is in megumi’s care though, so no worries. he’s just out there going after curses, driving himself insane with regret and pain, and in the end, when he misses you so much—he may or may not end up cursing you too💁🏻‍♀️ because… suddenly you’re in front of him again, and his six eyes clearly recognize that it is you

ALL STAFF TO THE WORK FLOOR. PLEASE PROCEED TO THE NEAREST CUSTOMER IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE.

i love that we’re all giddy and excited - but if the past is at all indicative of the future, this spin off is going to start out where they’re arguing and split up and it’ll take 8 out of 9 episodes to reconcile or speak to each other

sneak 👏 peek 👏 friday 👏

haven’t written much this week because i was catching up on stranger things and steddie had me in a chokehold. i’m not a big fan of the series but it’s so refreshing to read new fics in a new fandom, i had missed that feeling (also love how the fandom collectively agreed to ignore the s04 finale, bc it was bullshit, and instead started their own fix-it fanfics, as it should be lol). anyway, here we go c:

He's zipping up his khakis when the phone rings. Maverick frowns. It's ass o’clock in the morning, and he definitely isn’t expecting anyone to call at this hour. He crosses the distance to the wall where the phone hangs and picks up.

“Mitchell speaking.”

“Uncle Mav!” it’s a whisper-shout, and it lights up every fiber in Maverick’s body.

“Hey, little guy! What are you doing up?”

“It’s your birthday, Uncle Mav! I wanted to be the first to wish you a happy birthday, of course!”

Maverick snorts. “Of course.”

“It’s today, right? Daddy said it was, and Ms Riley helped me mark it in my calendar. Ms Riley is my new teacher, by the way! She’s sub– subti– she’s teaching us while Mrs Sophie is on leave! Did you know she’s having a baby? She said it could be born any day now, that’s why she’s gonna stay home and rest! I was sad at first, because I really like art classes with Mrs Sophie, but I guess Ms Riley is cool too. She helped me make your present, did you know?”

Maverick’s grinning from ear to ear. He fucking loves the kid.

Welcome Home Agere HCs - Little!Frank Frankly and CG!Eddie Dear

Author’s Note: Can you tell Eddie is my favorite character vkgkgk

Also more hcs!! Thinking of touching on the girls on the next one but for now this is what I got

—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—

- Frank was at first super embarrassed and shy about his regression to Eddie, so he made a point in hiding it

- That was until Eddie accidentally found him regressed real small, and he was forced to confess

- Ofc Eddie was supportive albeit confused, and is more than happy to care for Frank when he’s little

- Eddie calls his husband “his lil smartie”, it makes Frank happy every time

- Frank also has really limited gear for when he goes small, so Eddie makes a point to buy him a ton of stuff to make him feel safe!!

- Most of the day is just spent with Eddie carrying or cuddling a swaddled up Frank in his lap, it’s so cute

- Frank rarely calls Eddie any nicknames when he’s small, but Eddie likes to call himself “papa Eddie”, so Frank has warmed up to that

- Eddie and Julie like to duo babysit Frank when they’re both in the house

- If Eddie accidentally baby talks Frank, he’ll go into headspace immediately

- He won’t show it unless he’s comfortable enough tho, so don’t expect him to automatically go small

WIP Wednesday

Happy Wednesday, all (though I keep thinking it’s Thursday, sigh). Have some upcoming angst from Dance the Silence Down. Li Lianhua is, as per usual honestly, going through it.

Hi 👋. Saw your recent take on how fandom interpret MQ. And I would to here your thoughts about him being the tsundere people try to make him out to be.

MQ trying to make it up to XL when really FX was the only one still sincere. I've only read up to vol. 4 and reread vol. 1 and 2 to get a better look at details. But there are some concerning lines that even XL noticed. Like MQ seems excited at the prospect of XL becoming this mass murder during the Guoshi FangXin reveal. Even the first introductions in the book was him mocking XL's helpful nature.

"Mu Qing’s eyes were glimmering, however, and his restrained shock contained a faint underlying excitement." TGCF Vol. 2 chapter 18

"Since his third ascension, there could only be one phrase to describe the way Mu Qing treated him: passive-aggressive. It always felt like he was waiting for Xie Lian to get booted for the third time so he could make snide remarks. Yet now that Xie Lian might actually get booted that third time, he suddenly became pleasant—he even came specially to deliver medication. This complete reversal in attitude made Xie Lian feel quite disconcerted." TGCF Vol.2 chapter 19

Even XL was freaked out by MQ acting nice to him.

"Mu Qing suddenly asked, “Was everything Lang Qianqiu said true? Did you really kill those Yong’an royals?”

Xie Lian looked up and met his gaze. Even if Mu Qing had been forcibly hiding it, Xie Lian still detected a trace of uncontrollable excitement in his eyes. He seemed highly interested in the details of Xie Lian’s massacre at the Gilded Banquet—he followed with another question.

“How did you kill them?” TGCF Vol. 2 chapter 19

And after XL half lied about his involvement.

"Feng Xin paled. Mu Qing loathed that expression of his the most and said in annoyance, “All right, put that face away. After everything, for who are you looking so pained?”" TGCF vol. 2 chapter 19

I'm not reading this wrong to think MQ is just a very entitled b****** that got high on his position of power and is looking down on XL for coming from a place which is lower than what most people would go through? Is it appropriate for me to interpret him being downright hostile and reveling in XL's disgrace? Because the stans take for MQ questionable character is bothering me a lot. He is not some prickly cat with a soft heart. He is sharp thorns all the way inside and a heart colder than most.

Unless something changes in further volumes I haven't read which is unlikely. Considering MXTX penchant for consistent character writing.

Thoughts?

Something does change about Mu Qing’s character near the end of the novel, but it’s just character growth. You aren’t misreading any of his actions in the earlier parts of the story. What kills me is that yes, Mu Qing is a terrible person who is petty and jealous and insecure and thinks that the only problem with hierarchy is that he isn’t at the top, but he changes and people ignore that! In the best interest of not introducing spoilers, I will say that Mu Qing does explicitly, using clear language, acknowledge his mistakes and how wrong he was about how he viewed Xie Lian and his treatment of the other man. He acknowledges this on his own under no threat and with no prompting. And people ignore this because it does not fit into their perception of Mu Qing as either right or at least well-meaning. He is neither of those things. He knows it. Xie Lian knows it. But he can be those things if he puts effort into it, and for all people call me a hater about his character (which, yeah lol), I for one think he tries by the end.

So no, Mu Qing isn’t a tsundere because he’s not being mean or rude or petty to those he loves to hide a mushy middle. He’s doing it because he thinks he is right to and that eventually people will see that he is right. The story does not agree he is right and duly punishes him for his fuckery, and he changes into a better person who is actually nicer to his friends because he wants to be their friends and not their superiors. That’s his character.

Someone please yell at me to finish this one shot, I really want to post it today 🤠

just a bitch and his bitchy son apprentice

I will never not be mad about the absolute missed opportunity of naugus in a more royal fit and being an absolute bastard with ✨style✨
