sometimes repeating the same information back in your face is funny
sometimes it also backfires :P (everything backfires when it comes to Deadpool, just give up Miguel, he is planning on 100% that sidequest)

Fifteen Days of Disney Magic - Number 10
Welcome to Fifteen Days of Disney Magic! In honor of the company’s 100th Anniversary, I am counting down my Top 15 Favorite Movies from Walt Disney Animation Studios! We’ve reached the Top 10!
Today’s entry truly never gets old.
Number 10 is…Peter Pan.
Okay, let’s get the elephant out of the room immediately…no, some parts of this film (I think a lot of you will know which ones) have NOT aged well. It was made primarily for children in the 1950s, with development reaching as far back as the late 1930s, and certain elements are clearly a product of their time. I acknowledge this, and how it was as wrong then as it is wrong now. I concede it’s an issue for at least some (if not, indeed, many) modern audiences. If those elements or any others bother you for any reason – and I imagine they probably bother a LOT of people – I won’t pretend like you don’t have justifiable grounds for disliking the film as a result.
With that said…I freaking love this movie, despite those issues, and that is the hill I choose to die on.
While I don’t know if Disney’s Peter Pan is the BEST interpretation of J.M. Barrie’s classic fantasy adventure, it’s certainly one of my top three favorites. (The other two are the 2003 film, and the musical that originally starred Mary Martin…also, no, I’m NOT counting “Hook" there, because “Hook” is a sequel, not a direct adaptation or reimagining.) When I think of the character of Peter Pan himself, it’s Disney’s version that most immediately comes to mind. The same can be said for many of the other characters, such as Smee, the Darling Children, and Tinker Bell…in fact, I think the only exceptions to this rule are Captain Hook himself (and he’s certainly not a version I dislike; easily in my top three takes on the character, as well as one of my Top 5 Disney Villains of all time), the Mermaids (who have so little to do with anything it hardly matters), and the Native American characters, who...I'm not going to touch here with a ten foot pole. 'XD
I think it’s my passion for the story itself, and the fact the film introduced me to it, that helps make this such a major favorite for me. It also has the advantage that, like “Fun and Fancy Free” and “The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad,” it was one of the first Disney movies I ever owned, and I watched it over and over again. In fact, I think I saw it perhaps more than any of the others I had on VHS. Something about Peter Pan just spoke to me as a kid, and still speaks to me as an adult. I loved its sense of cartoonish comedy, I loved its spirit of swashbuckling action and adventure, and I loved how it had this sort of strange edge of something unsettling under its colorful exterior. Hook is a funny villain in a lot of ways, but he’s also a murderous psychopath who’ll kill and betray you at the drop of a hat. Peter is, in some ways, who we all wish we could be, but he’s also brash, cocky, and not exactly the most likeable protagonist…and then he’ll turn right around and do or say something that makes you like him all over again. While one could say the film really only covers the superficial elements of Barrie’s darker and more psychological story, it does brush on those deeper layers in some interesting ways, and still makes the ride enjoyable all the way through.
This is possibly one of the single most merchandised and frequently referred to films in the entire Disney canon. There’s a preschoolers-aimed TV show, a whole spin-off franchise about the fairies, books, plays, a sequel film that was actually brought to theaters (and, in my opinion, while flawed it is actually not really bad; rare for Disney sequels), and numerous appearances by the characters in various other properties and attractions. It’s one of those stories and worlds that seems impossible to mine dry, and I think that also may be part of why it appeals to me. I was actually fully primed and ready to place this one in 8th place, at the top of the heap of the four films in the stretch between 11th and 8th...but after revisiting it, I found it lacked some of the punch the two films above it had. But hey, Top 10 isn't too bad, right?
The countdown continues tomorrow with my 9th Favorite Disney Movie!
HINT: If You Were Hoping It Would Be Here, Wish Granted!

i absolutely have to request this if nobody else has already but kiss to shut them up with peter blease-
this is perfectttttt best way to shut a man up 10/10 XD
↪ 𝑲𝑰𝑺𝑺 ﹠ ᵀᴱᴸᴸ .
kissing them to shut them up .
You truly don’t think your lover has any real idea of when, or how, to be quiet. (It’s like the rest of him is small, so he feels the need to prove that something about him is big, and the something he’s chosen is apparently his mouth.)
Part of you doesn’t blame him. Part of you thinks you’re reaching the point where you want to smack PETER rather than listen to him continuing to spout off whatever drivel comes to his mind.
“Oi, y’ listenin’ t’ me, precious?” Ah, yes. His one redeeming quality: the fact that, actually, he does love you quite deeply. If nothing else, he likes to use that big mouth of his to remind you of that fact with copious nicknames. Of course, when you glance over, he looks irritated by the assumption that you’ve begun to tune him out. He’s pretty much just complaining. So. Pros and cons.
You give him a nod, leaning back on the bed. You might as well let him get it all out before the two of you drift off to sleep. “I’m listening, darling. You were saying… one of the newbies talked back to you, or something?”
“’R somethin’!” he huffs. “Stupid moron questioned me when I told ‘im t’ go practice with Dagger instead’a me! I mean, this bloody fool didn’t ‘ave ‘alf the balance ‘n’ shite y’ need t’ get up on the trapeze. ‘N’ I’m s’posed t’ let ‘im up there, jus’ so ‘e could drop me ‘n’ Wendy on our ‘eads? Ain’t ‘appenin’! Let ‘im throw a fuckin’ knife at someone instead.”
Idly, you wonder if he thinks he ought to have cleared something like that with Joker. He’s the ringleader and assigns people to their tasks, right? You love Peter just as deeply as he loves you, but his penchant for barking orders is going to get him in trouble one day.
As if it already hasn’t? you think with a chuckle.
All the things streaming out of Peter’s mouth are of little consequence in the long run. He’s easily annoyed, and you’re sure the newbie will be replaced within a month if it turns out he can’t deal with your lover shooing him off. You consider suggesting that the poor lad might just really want to learn the trapeze. Passion counts for something, doesn’t it?
Oh. There’s an idea.
You lean over and, mid-sentence, silence Peter by pressing your lips to his. He squirms around a little, seemingly more out of confusion than because he doesn’t want to be kissed. After a few seconds, when you part, he lets out a soft grunt. “Oi, the fuck did y’ do that for?” A small laugh is puffed out his nose. “I was talkin’.”
“I know.” You give him another kiss, and this time he leans into it since he knows it was coming. Your arm slips down to twine around his waist. “You’re talking about all the things which irritate you. I thought perhaps you’d like a more pleasant distraction from it all.”
He doesn’t have to know that’s a bit of a half-truth, does he? ‘Pleasant distraction from irritating thoughts’ and ‘shutting Peter up’ are both noble causes to use a kiss for.
#Black Butler#Kuroshitsuji#Peter#reader insert#romantic#fluff#domestic#silly boy lips are for kissin not for complainin!!!! XD#God I love him so much#one hell of a queue

MAG 186 Relisten
Activity on my first listen: taking a bath.
Right at the start of this episode Martin at least sounds like himself and not totally lost like in MAG 170. So when I was first listening this was already relieving. (He even sounds a bit annoyed...)
ALSO MARTIN: "Wuthering Heights."
I have no idea what Wuthering Heights is. I guess it's, like Pride and Prejudice and War and Peace, something people in English-speaking countries usually learn about in literature?
MARTIN: "Yeah. God, I hated studying that. It was all just so…"
I love how much Martin just rolls with the fact, that he himself just answered him xD
ALSO MARTIN: "Right down to the monochrome."
Speaking of monochrome. Also!Martin sounds so monotone, it's really easy to tell them apart!
MARTIN: "No, I just… I’m ashamed to let him see this place, alright. To see what – I don’t know, what feeds me?"
ALSO MARTIN: "Sure, that’s part of it, but… it’s not the whole thing, is it? Not really."
MARTIN: "What do you mean?"
ALSO MARTIN: "Well, if you don’t count ‘memory manor’, when was the last time you were even on your own?"
NOT REALLY! And yeah, Also!Martin then describes it perfectly. It's ok to want some space. That wish is probably easier to express and still have it come across like a mundane thing when you've not been a victim of an Eldritch fear god of being lonely. I do, generally though, enjoy long stretches of time spent with my spouse a lot more than long stretches of time without them. It makes me feel distant from them, and I don’t like that. Doesn't mean that a day home alone isn't really refreshing every now and then. But, I know of couples (I say know of because these people usually aren't my friends cause they're more... "normal") who have very, veeeery different interests and they do pursue them separately and I'm like "why are you even together then??". I mean, it's totally okay, if it works for them, good! But that's just my personal quirk on relationships.
ALSO MARTIN: "Like I said, I’m not your enemy."
MARTIN: [Archly] "Oh really? I thought you said you were me?"
Haha, yeah, standing in your own way.
MARTIN: "Eurgh. Oolong. Of course. Of course! Whenever I asked a question she didn’t like, or she wanted to stop the conversation –"
ALSO MARTIN: "Off you’d go to put the kettle on."
Can't have shit in the apocalypse.
Aaaalso, do you know the story about why it's Oolong? It came up in one of the Protocol streams during the Magnus quiz, Jonny answered it and got it wrong (I don't know what the tea was, something I can neither pronounce nor spell, so I immediately forgot the name), then Alex got it right with Oolong. Jonny was super confused about it, cause iirc he apparently chose that tea because Sasha doesn't like it. Buuuut, turns out, Alex couldn't pronounce it, so he just went with Oolong instead and never told Jonny xDDD
MARTIN: "She was still my mum! Our mum. Whatever!"
Yeah, but you didn't choose to come into this world. She made that choice. So parents owe their kids to do their bloody best to provide for them, care for them, make them feel loved! Sure, in this case, it wasn’t like this from the start, Martin’s mum started to resent him cause he reminded her of his father you broke her heart. That’s why there really should be better health care regarding therapy out there...
ALSO MARTIN: [Emphatically] "And we’re glad she’s dead."
Still, all considering, that hits pretty hard...
MARTIN: "If I’d done what Peter had asked… If I’d not chickened out, and just killed Elias when I had the chance…"
ALSO MARTIN: "Really? Really? That’s how you’re choosing to remember it? Chickening out?"
MARTIN: "I remember it was the wrong choice."
Actually, nobody knows what would have happened. Once you chose a path, you will never know if it was the "wrong" one.
MARTIN: "I get it, alright? But I need it. I-I choose the guilt, because…"
ALSO MARTIN: [Leading] "Because…"
MARTIN: "Because it motivates me to do better!"
ALSO MARTIN: "… Does it though? Or… does it just keep paralysing us, make us shrink back and wait, hoping things work out?"
Yeah, that’s a thought pattern I'm familiar with. Or like, always prepare for the worst and then it can only turn out better! Hm, didn't get too far with that.
JON: "Like with Jon, when we thought the worms had got him."
MARTIN: "Hey, to be fair, he still kind of hated me back then. I’m really not sure it would have been the time to take my shot."
Wait, did Martin actually consider to tell Jon back then??? I mean, he obviously chose not to, but that sounds like it at least crossed his mind. I mean, I get it, when I had my crush on my spouse it was so unbearable to keep it unsaid.
ALSO MARTIN: "Fair. He was projecting hard. Between us, that guy’s got some real issues."
MARTIN: "Hey! Pretty sure we love ‘that guy’."
ALSO MARTIN: "Yeah, and all his many, many problems."
I mean, that's not a big revelation that Jon has some real issues, everybody knows that. It’s like written all over his forehead xD Still, it's okay that people have their own baggage. Friends or loved ones don't have to be these perfect figures, that's simply not possible for real persons.
ALSO MARTIN: "You do though. You daydream about it! The big climactic showdown with Elias, and then the two of you kiss, and push a button that just magically saves the world and makes everything better."
MARTIN: "It’s actually not a button, so –"
ALSO MARTIN: "Stop. Deflecting."
MARTIN: [Angry] "S-So what, okay? We should just give up? Hmm? Just stay here and curl up into a ball and just accept the world as is? Hmm? That’s your big solution?"
ALSO MARTIN: "I’m saying there aren’t any easy solutions. We have no idea what’s going to happen. Even if we make it to the tower, we don’t know there’ll be a fix. And if by some miracle there is, we both know the price will be awful. Just look at Melanie."
Hm yah. You need a bit of something you're moving towards. But you can't have it all perfectly laid out in your mind, that you're waiting for this exact thing to happen. You can't live for a hypothetical future. (Also more on topic: yeah, we've seen that the fears always crave more and more horrible things. They’ll not gonna let them off the hook easily.)
MARTIN: "So, this price. What do you think? Are we going to have to kill Jon?"
Oh, that's going to age horribly...
ALSO MARTIN: "Even dying?"
MARTIN: "Yeah!"
ALSO MARTIN: "Jon’s as bad as we are. He wouldn’t let it happen."
MARTIN: "It’s not his decision."
Uhhh, the way the world works nowadays, I think it very much is his decision xD
Martin then wanting to know about the people in his domain feels like he has indeed processed a bit and is now moving on. Accepting, that this is his place and situation now instead of running away from it.
ALSO MARTIN: "We never met them in the old world. Although one of them is named Tim. Just a coincidence, I think, unless it was a subconscious thing on our part."
Martin subconsciously being: "Yeaaah, I want to twist that knife a bit more"
ALSO MARTIN (STATEMENT): "I can’t tell you their names, because we don’t know them"
Except for that one Tim though. Coincident? I think not! It's all about twisting knives!
"His family were cold, and so to keep that coldness at bay, he built a towering wall between them and him. He hid it in jokes and practiced smiles, but on a cloudy day, they could see it."
Ah yes, sounds like the classic depressed-people-making-funny-memes thing!
"She was among this joy, yes, these sparkling friends, but she was not a part of it, not really. She tried to be, wanted so desperately to be a part of their easy warmth, and maybe they thought she was. But they hadn’t known her, not really."
Ahem...
MARTIN: "I’ll get Jon to destroy me like the others."
ALSO MARTIN: "You don’t really believe he’d do it?"
MARTIN: "I don’t know. Maybe?"
ALSO MARTIN: "… This took a dark turn."
MARTIN: "Yeah. But… this time, it doesn’t feel like despair. It feels like resolve."
I think that's even worse. Because as I see it that’s the most scary part of being suicidal. How utterly convinced you are it's the right thing.

Bob's Burgers Zeke x Tina Head Canons and Story Scene Ideas.
I'm separating headcanons and ideas because the headcanons are more solid in their stance while the ideas are just shaky story scenes that I think would be cool to do but I'm not sure if I would be into it being my main line headcanon.
Headcanons:
1. While Tina is still dating Jimmy Jr. She tries to apologize to Zeke for being so hostile towards him at the beginning. She admits that she was jealous of how close he was with Jimmy Jr even though she knew him longer, how he seemed to thrive at everything that she hoped to be good at, and how despite being obnoxious, loud, rough, and gross he still was able to get nearly everyone to like him. Meanwhile, she struggled with being tolerated by her Wagstaff peers that weren't her siblings.
Zeke thinks it’s insane that Tina could be jealous of him when he’s jealous of her. Zeke wish he had Tina’s life with parents that aren’t divorced and siblings he could he could hang out with all the time. Not to mention Tina had years to develop the relationships she has with people. Zeke’s family moved around a lot so he had no choice but to make a quick impression on people because he never knows when he’s going to move away again. Even if Tina thinks she has no friends, she always had her Gene and Louise to turn to; Zeke had no one in his family because they were either too old/busy to bother with him, too young to even walk, or only visits for a little while because they live in another state.
Tina grows to appreciate Zeke more after this conversation and officially sees him as a friend rather than Jimmy Jr’s friend that she just has to learn to live with and has mixed feelings over the fact that he has a crush on her.
2. Zeke becomes Louise and Gene’s plan B (or Z for the initial humor) whenever Tina is down in the dumps after Jimmy Jr cancels a date last minute (That is if Zeke isn’t the one Jay Ju canceled on Tina for already). Just a platonic get together so Tina can get her mind off of how much of a jerk Jay Ju is being again. (Kind of like Peppermint Patty forcing Charlie Brown to go to the fair with her so she can help him gets his mind off Snoopy leaving for his original owner in in “Snoopy, Come Home”)
3. Tina succeeds getting Zeke into The Equestranauts series and Zeke unironically talks about the show in the open with her whenever she brings up first.
4. Tina is the first to join Zeke and Peter’s Women Issues Group to help support her friend.
5. Let’s face it, probably one of the reasons Zeke has a crush on Tina is because she probably has some of the biggest boobs in their grade (not the biggest but one of the biggest anyway). It’s not the only reason, but we can’t deny it’s not part of the reason. Zeke being a boob guy is part of his character and we just have to deal with it like we have to deal with Tina being a butt gal. Darn hormonal teenagers! Lol (Heck I should have named my Zekina Beauty and the Beast idea, Booty and the Breast XD)
6. Tina basically becomes 50% of Zeke’s impulse control while everyone else holds the other half of his impulse control which is dangerous since one of the holders of the other 50 percent is Louise.
7. Tina learns to put her foot down more and not be as easily influenced by Louise thanks to Zeke’s help (which also helps in turn to help her be more solid in her being 50 percent of Zeke’s impulse control).
8. When Zeke and Tina get together, Zeke loves giving pda and Tina loves receiving it, but she tries to not overdo it so she isn’t responsible for her family losing business by being too obnoxious with their affection.
9. When they start dating, it’s easier for Tina to count the times Zeke doesn’t have one of his arms around her or hold her hand than it is when he does.
10. Zeke and Tina get married on the beach. Though, they joke about getting married at the aquarium due to it being a church once.
11. After their first time together Tina calls Zeke Zbee assuming that all this time Tbird was just the first letter of her name and a reference to the birds and the bees and had no idea Tbird was short for the name of a car. Zeke got a lot of mileage out of that one (no pun intended)
12. Wrasslin’ is Zeke and Tina’s euphemism for hanky panky, Louise and Gene teases them every now and then about it once they found out.
13. Zeke handles the money related problems in the relationship because he is better at math in comparison to Tina, not the best but still better than Tina.
14. Their first child will be named Daniel or Danielle (depending which gender on I choose) either way the kid will be nicknamed Dani
15. What Zeke loves most about Tina is how she’s always full of surprises. She can be a weird, sweet, insecure, do gooder nerd one moment and the next a fearless, troublemaking badass. A strange anomaly wrapped in a mystery that he wants to solve.
16. What Tina loves most about Zeke is the fact that he really believes she’s this interesting, unsolvable mystery. The girl from her inner world she wishes she was is someone that Zeke already believes she is and she never wants to lose that.
17. Zeke and Tina tried to help set up Saucy up on hermit crab dates at one point, but it didn’t work out. You can’t force love in the wild.
18. Zeke probably hates robots because they keep taking the jobs his family applies to and forcing them to move. Either that or he saw the Terminator too young and now is scarred for life.
19. I can see Zeke reading an erotic friend fiction at one point and leaving the review, “Hot stuf Tbird! Cud use more boobies tho ;].” Tomatina (tomato faced tina) appears after that. (Yes Zeke also spells bad XD)
20. Because of his wrestling background, he probably has the potential to give good massages. Tina certainly would want to put that to the test as soon as possible when they are married.
21. Tina makes it her mission to get the best gift for Zeke every birthday and Christmas. Zeke likes to tease her about it and make it a challenge for her to figure it out. It’s frustrating but she knows he only does it to make the point he’ll love whatever she gets him no matter what, as long as it’s not a robot of any kind.
22. Back to when they were teenagers, Tina and Zeke probably used his hidey hole a lot to privately console each other and talk about their current issues troubling them once they became closer friends.
Shaky fanfiction scene ideas (but I’ll still format it as the headcanon list even though the majority of the numbers are part of one story narrative):
1. Everyone comments about how close Zeke and Tina’s friendship has gotten which both deny and Tina feels that Zeke’s that way too everyone because of his personality. Even Jimmy Jr. is a bit threatened by how close Zeke and Tina are now even though Zeke never and will never cross a line. Jimmy Jr. honestly preferred when Tina hated Zeke because he knows how easily she falls in love with guys that are nice to her (especially ones she knows has a crush on her). Tina would of course be insulted by how little Jimmy Jr trusts her loyalty to their relationship.
2. Tina breaks up with Jimmy Jr. after high school when she realizes he’s never going to fully commit to promising her to be faithful during a long distance relationship. Jimmy Jr. and Zeke’s friendship falls apart as well when Zeke chooses to go to comfort Tina first before JJ.
3. She takes a break from dating for a while after the Jimmy Jr. heart break. After her date break, despite the chemistry she feels with Zeke, she will still continue to date other guys before she’s ready to acknowledge her feelings. Zeke’s also has his fair share of dates with other girls as well. They like to laugh over their failed dates and help each other move on.
4. Tina leaves to go to college to become a novelist. She’s delighted to see Dillon and Susmita to be going to the same college and thanks the heavens above that she may finally have a friend group to call her own that’s not terrible to her. Unfortunately, her personal hell comes true when finds out she’s roommates with Tammy Larsen.
5. To afford to go to college, Zeke tries to join the navy but they reject him because of his ADHD. His dad kicks him out at 18. So with nowhere to go he offers to work at Bob’s Burgers for a place to sleep until he can find a job and his own place to stay. Zeke is right at home with the Belcher family and is delighted that Bob is willing to teach other things besides burgers upstairs in the Belcher kitchen. This confirms to Zeke even more that he wants to go to culinary school.
6. Zeke and Tina would still text each other a lot when Tina is away in college (Tina would eventually get her own phone that’s not only for emergency before college, don’t ask me how XD). No way is Zeke going to let Tina and him become estranged, much to Tammy’s annoyance (a girl’s gotta sleep sometimes lol) and massive jealousy.
7. On summer break of college, Tina would visit her family home. She as well as Zeke would be shocked by all the changes their bodies and attire went through while they were apart. Zeke would lift her up in a big, bear hug to greet his good friend and push down the funny feelings in his tummy while everybody else joins in on the hug.
8. The sexual tension in the air would be so thick that it would need a chainsaw to break it apart. Louise and Gene would have fun with making it worse while Tina is home.
9. Jimmy Jr. would also be back in town during Tina’s summer break. Tina would be lying if she said that Jimmy Jr didn’t take care of himself well as well. Jimmy Jr would happen to be single at the time and also found Tina she aged gracefully too. Jimmy Jr. would ask her to dinner with him to catch up. Knowing full well he is trying to do, Tina agrees to go. Zeke finds out about Tina seeing Jimmy Jr and tell her to have a nice time even though he’s dying inside. He can’t force her to love him, so why try to stop her from who she wants to be with more.
While Tina goes to meet up with Jay Ju, Zeke “borrows” some beer to ease the pain of letting go. Louise would find everything out and slap some sense into a drunken Zeke. Whether she admits it or not, she’s on team Zeke and there’s no way she would let Tina let Jimmy Jr hurt her again or see her practically adopted brother be sad over this easily fixable thing.
Louise would remind Zeke that him and JJ aren’t friends anymore so what is stopping him from barging in to the restaurant telling Tina that he wants her bad and killing JJ. Even in his drunken state Zeke wouldn’t want to kill JJ, but he would agree with Louise that he’s been playing it safe in the friendship for too long and it’s time to rock the boat.
When Louise and Zeke make it to the restaurant, Tina would already be leaving the place looking like she did something very cathartic. It would be revealed that Tina basically only agreed to meet up with JJ again just to make it clear to him that she outgrew him and that there’s no chance that they will ever get back together again after everything he put her through, that and get a free meal.
Louise would be proud of her sister to finally overcome the JJP drug while also pushing Zeke to say what he went there to say. Zeke nerves and drunken state would get the better of him and he would zoom to the nearest trash can to barf. After an awkward ride of silence home, Tina would help give Zeke water until he would be sober enough to talk things over.
Zeke would pour his heart out that he still holds a torch for Tina and never stopped even when they were doing great as just friends. He wanted to tell her so much sooner but it was never the right time. Then when Tina came back for summer, he thought fate finally gave him and Tina a chance to start something. That is until Jimmy Jr popped in back to town at the worst possible time. He was so heartbroken that he thought he missed his shot again that he was going to drink the pain away until Louise stopped his pity party.
He would say screw it whether it was the right or wrong time to say it because he’s done staying silent just so the next long necked Casanova can come and steal her heart while he just learns to live with it. If Tina still didn’t want to give him a chance, he would be fine with that, but at least he got what he needed off of his chest. His only hope now would be that if Tina did reject his confession they would still be friends.
It would be Tina’s turn to get something out of her hand and give it to Zeke, it was an after dinner mint from the restaurant. Tina would tease him that she didn’t want to kiss someone with barf breath. Zeke never would have dreamed that he would be trying to suck through a mint so fast.
Their kiss would be soft and innocent at the start but get more and more intimate once Tina wordlessly gives Zeke permission to do so. Years of unreciprocated love pouring out and being shared by one another and it makes them both feel like the only people in the world that matter to each other for a moment.
10. After they become official, Jimmy Jr apologizes to both of them for real this time and hopes that one day maybe they could all be friends again. Not wanting to hold any grudges, Zeke and Tina want to bury the hatchet with Jimmy Jr. but make it clear they aren’t pals yet and they want to see that Jimmy Jr. earns their trust first.
Okay, that’s all that I have stored up in my brain for ZekexTina headcanons and fanfiction ideas (which is basically just a bunch of scenes that form into one big story honestly, I’m not very good at making my ideas small XD)
Okay here’s a bonus headcanon for Gene. His favorite song from Veggietales is Barbara Manatee and thus formed his attraction to the manatee puppet in that ship kidnapped episode.

Not really, got flamed a time or two in the ff.net days. The occasional person who doesn't really think
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Oh I absolutely do! I love writing smut. I love how much storytelling you can put into smut. You can get SO MUCH character work into smut just by how the characters are connecting.
My absolute favourite is the tension got to much and we HAD to break smut, because there is so much gooey deliciousness I absolutely do not write in the mornings after, where the sex comes easy but the feelings are locked behind a dozen doors.
All my smut tends to involve tentacles or some version of fuckery. The last time I wrote fic that just had a standard dick I think I struggled! XD
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
Does roleplay in the DBCA mansion count? Not really, though Nails kind of crosses over with Round the Twist. I'd love to write a PacRim crossover someday though.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Doubt it, though I've never really looked and it wouldn't surprise me if some dickhead scraped my fic for AI.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Yes! I've had a couple of fans translate one or two of my Megamind fics into Russian.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Not yet, though I think I'd like to. Dal and I have bounced ideas back and forth a few times and I did scoop and drop all of our Megamind accidentally swears a bluestreak in front of Roxanne but she just laughs at him idea into a google doc that i wil someday get around to opening.
14. What’s your all-time favourite ship?
Just one? I mean my ship is more of a theme of dramatic bastard in a big cape and the equally dramatic person constantly needling them back. Ideal OTP is Rick/Evey from The Mummy
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
I really REALLY want to write the florist/tattoo parlour Megarox fic but I have literally no idea what to do with it so it will remain a collection of unrelated scenes forever probably, alas.
16. What are your writing strengths?
Dialogue. I love writing exchanges between people, especially when they get to be snarky with each other. I feel like I'm pretty good at smut but everyone's mileage varies on that one.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Action scenes. I hate them, I'll take any opportunity to avoid writing fight scenes.
I'm also a wordy fucking bitch so I take forever to get to scenes that readers are begging for if I feel like the story isn't there yet.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I'm not bilingual so its something I would need to do with a translator and probably would't flow well.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Star Wars. I wanted to impress Grand Admiral Thrawn SO MUCH as a nine year old (still do tbh)
20. Favourite fic you’ve ever written?
Ahaha it changes depending on which one I'm working on. Topsy is up there but Ricochet, Recoil, Rebound is one I can always go back to with joy.
Tagging: @nientedal, @owlinabasket, @wendy-daahling

May 7
Right off the bat I’m jealous of Jonathan, he got to sleep in! Well, good man, he’s been through a lot recently, and I wish him joy of it.
Oh, no mirrors? How very strange. XD
Then he finds a library. Good for him! Surprise libraries are possibly the very best kind.
Awww, Jonathan sees a list of British lawyers and gets all warm and fuzzy inside. That’s genuinely rather cute.
You know, I was getting bad vibes from the Count, but he does seem rather fond of his library. Perhaps I have judged him too harshly...
I am rather curious, who is this Peter Hawkins of Exeter? Jonathan’s boss, presumably, but how does he kknow the Count? We might find out later, I suppose, but going into this having read part of the novel before, I’m really curious about who knows Dracula/ What is the Count’s correspondence like? Who does he write to?
Ah, yes, the Locked Doors (tm). Very Bluebeard’s Bride. Foreshadowing! I like it.
Wait, the blue flames mark buried treasure? Why does this not feature in pirate lore all the time, that’s heckin’ evocative! I like it!
Unless, of course, he’s telling us a lie and there is A More Sinister Explanation! (I think there’s a more sinister explanation, don’t you?)
The Count being excited about obtaining an old house is endearing, somehow. “I could not stand to live somewhere new.” Priveleged, of course, but also... when you’ve lived as long as the Count has, it would probably be comforting to live places that have seen the world change in the same way that you have. Something to consider when writing quasi-immortal characters.
And, alright, I understand that this:
“ I seek not gaiety nor mirth, not the bright voluptuousness of much sunshine and sparkling waters which please the young and gay. I am no longer young; and my heart, through weary years of mourning over the dead, is not attuned to mirth. Moreover, the walls of my castle are broken; the shadows are many, and the wind breathes cold through the broken battlements and casements. I love the shade and the shadow, and would be alone with my thoughts when I may.”
-is supposed to be super ominous and all, but it strikes me as poetic and melancholy more than threatening. I know where this is going, and it foreshadows those things as well, but this is just... sad. I rather like it.
The Count also seems to be taking good care of his newly acquired lawyer, making sure that Jonathan gets up from the books and eats once in a while. Good for both of them!
This is going to start going downhill very quickly, and Jonathan wrote many times of his apprehension, but honestly? This chapter is the nicest one so far, in my opinion.
#progress! I am making progress!#I signed up on may sixth#so this is the first time Dracula Daily is in my inbox#dracula daily#jonathan harker#rose reads#rose rambles

¡Hola, Nela! 😸
Se viene una avalancha de preguntas 👀
4, 5, 7, 8, 11, 13, 15, 16, 27, 30
Ten un buen día ✨
Charlotte!!!!
That's a bunch of questions xD. Alright, here I go:
4. favourite dish specific for your country?
This thing called cayeye. It's a platain purée (Platain not banana) with a tomato&onion sauté, sprinkled with a lot of cheese. tbh, I loved anything with platain.
5. favourite song in your native language?
my current obsession is Ateo by c tangana ft. Nathy Peluso. He's spanish and she's argentinian; not from my country but the song is in spanish, so I guess it counts.
7. three words from your native language that you like the most?
Ojalá is my favorite word. The accentuated á and the spanish j make it hot, and I love the meaning (I hope or I wish) and the arabic origin. I think it's awesome to have a word that expresses hope in such emotional and beautiful way.
2. resiliencia
3. Mariposa
8. do you get confused with other nationalities? if so, which ones and by whom?
Yes! When you're from Latin America it's easy to be confused with other Latam nationality, or Spain. When I was in Canada I was asked if I came from Spain or Mexico xD. Besides, I dont' have remarked Latino traits, so I get confused with southern european nationalities too.
11. favourite native writer/poet?
Gabriel García Márquez. One hundred years of solitude is a masterpiece.
13. does your country (or family) have any specific superstitions or traditions that might seem strange to outsiders?
My family it's not too superstitious, but for new year's eve colombians tend to eat twelve grapes at midnight (making a wish each time) get in Levi mode and clean our home to welcome positive change, hold lentils in our pockets to ensure they will not go hungry, carry a suitcase to encourage travel and wear yellow underwear to encourage wealth.
I did the suitcase thing one, and ran laps around my block seven times with a suitcase. Pandemic hit the following year xD.
15. a saying, joke, or hermetic meme that only people from your country will get?
There are so many. Here are some:
- Más mamado que chupo de guardería. “More ‘sucked’ than a pacifier in a nursery” Means you're exhausted
-Como Pedro por su casa. "Like Peter in his own house." It is used to describe someone impertinent who has entered somewhere without permission.
-¿Durmió conmigo anoche o qué? "Did you sleep with me last night or what?" You tell someone who doesnt say hi.
16. which stereotype about your country you hate the most and which one you somewhat agree with?
The one I hate the most is when I say I'm colombian the first thing I get asked is if I do cocaine, or something related to drugs. I agree with the one that says that colombians are welcoming, outgoing and cheerful. It's true!!!
27. favourite national celebrity?
SHAKIRA SHAKIRA
30. do you have people of different nationalities in your family?
Nope.

for the couples ask game #s 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 18, 24, 25, & 26 :)
thank you so much!!! can't tell you how excited I am to give these questions a spin :)
answers under the cut since there are a lot of them:
3. Have you ever written a soulmate AU? If you haven't, why would/wouldn't you write one?
Hm... sort of. I have an idea for a Witcher fic with a soulmate arc, though I haven't had time to actually write it yet. And there are elements of Heartstrings (my AHS Coven fic) that are similar to a soulmate plotline, though I've been trying to keep that one a little more "up in the air". I have complicated views on soulmate AUs and "fate" in general, so I tend to fiddle with the trope a bit when I do write it.
4. What's the fastest you've reached a romantic couple's first kiss (in words/scenes/chapters)? First "I love you"? Other landmarks?
Heartstrings has definitely been the fastest-evolving of all my fics, since we get an official first date in Chapter 3 and a slipped "I love you" in Chapter 8. However, I do think A Love Once New moves faster in terms of word count, since Heartstrings has longer chapters overall.
6. Have you ever started to write a relationship and had it develop differently than you expected? How so?
I was expecting Heartstrings to be more of a slowburn, and... well, as you can see from the previous question, it really didn't go that way.
7. Have you written any romantic couples that you think would be better off as friends? Or even enemies?
Not really? I have a lot of romantic couples that are also friends, because I love those sorts of relationships, but I think the romance there is also well-fitted.
10. [Couple] has just been struck by a magic spell, and now they're mortal enemies! What happens now?
Okay, you didn't specify so I'm just gonna pick one at random.... Ophelia and Peter. I feel like Peter would be less susceptible to the spell, since Ophelia's fairly morally-gray already, and he'd be the one to try and break the spell. And I feel like he'd succeed, though he'd have to survive Ophelia first - she's dangerous, and he couldn't stand to hurt her.
11. [Couple] has just stumbled into a fairy ring, and they've forgotten they ever knew each other! What happens now?
I'll do this one for Madison and Alex since I feel like that would be the most interesting. Neither of them are particularly emotional people, so it wouldn't be some "I've got a gaping hole in my heart and I don't know why" sort of melodrama, but I can't help but think that they'd start drifting back towards each other over time. Or hell, it's just as likely that the other X-Men would see what happened and try to mend things themselves, since they were so good for each other before.
12. [Couple] has just found an interdimensional portal, and one of them just walked in! Does the other go after them?
I don't think I even need to specify a couple for this one, the answer will always be yes XD
Strategies, now, that would vary. Some would plan, some would just dive in. Some would go immediately and some would waffle about the danger. But they'd always go after their loved one.
18. Pick a few characters you've written for (or, for a fun twist, asker chooses). Tell me about their relationship in three sentences or less.
Hm... I'll go with Quinn and Billy for this one. Their relationship is... really something.
Longtime friendship that was always a little more than a friendship. Power couple, but morality's still on the fence. They tease each other so much they almost don't seem like a couple... but nobody would ever doubt they're a couple.
24. When you write, do you focus more on the romantic relationships or the non-romantic ones?
I try to include a mix of both. In the nature of fanfic, there's a good amount of focus on the romantic couples in the story, but I do make it a point to build other connections between the characters. I actually put a lot of effort into making sure the romantic relationship is not the only relationship in the story - every character has family, friends, other connections outside their romance.
25. How important to you is the inclusion of sex in writing a romantic couple? Do you have any asexual characters?
So, I don't write smut. It makes me uncomfortable, and I just can't figure out how to make it sexy and not cringey. So that's the first thing - any spicy scenes I write are either implied or kinda dodge around the actual smut. Secondly, I feel like a good romantic relationship doesn't require sex at all. If it's well-written, the chemistry should speak for itself. Spicy scenes can be fun, but shouldn't be required for the relationship.
However, there are a few relationships where I don't want to leave it up to audience interpretation. This is generally in relation to my trans/queer couples, where I don't want anyone to willfully misinterpret their relationship. When I write those, I tend to be a little more candid about intimacy in their relationship, just because I don't want it to get written off or dismissed for not being cishet.
In terms of ace characters, my protagonist in Who Waits Forever Anyway?, Katherine, is outwardly asexual, as well as the character Adrianna in Heartstrings, Rae's sister Ginny in A Love Once New, Lita in Bolts and Blasters, and probably a whole host of other characters I'm forgetting.
26. Do you have any characters that are arospec or otherwise wouldn't enter a romantic relationship? How do they interact with the story?
Most of the works I write are romantic in nature, so at the moment I don't have any primary OCs that are on the aro spectrum, but Adrianna (one of Jasper's friends/derby sisters) in Heartstrings is aroace. In turn, she really values the friendships she's made in roller derby and view those as her most important relationships, though she's not above teasing her derby siblings for their romantic relationships. It's fun, right?

Gorgeous ↬ b.b
A/N: Props to @thefallenbibliophilequote for getting me into bucky XD (fic lowkey based on Taylor Swift’s Gorgeous.)
Warnings: smut :) very smut and nudity.
MINORS DNI
WC: 2.5k+
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader, Peter Parker & Reader (Platonic)
Masterlist || Taglist
“Do you think he has a girlfriend?” You asked, sipping at the fairly bitter beer in your hand. Looking over your shoulder, you sighed, slumping on the counter of the bar you were in.
You had been dragged along with your neighbour- Peter Parker, also known as the friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man, to a club right after an Avengers mission. You were no avenger, just a run in the mill overworked and underpaid preschool teacher.
It had become customary for you to tag along with him to bars with the other Avengers, after you had discovered about his spidery abilities. You had always been close to him, he was your brother in everything but blood. You were after all, his bonafide babysitter/best friend.
The others in his team had accepted you with open arms, a weird bond forming between you and them, accepting you as more than "Peter's hot neighbour" and more like a part of their team.
One particular person seemed to have caught your eye.
Cranking your neck to see his slumped figure, you smirked at his back, eyes tracing his broad shoulders and newly buzz cut hair. You hadn’t talked to him much, but from when you had, you found him to be very sweet. He was shy, rarely spoke and always in his own shell, cheeks rosy pink whenever you conversed. So different from what the media portrayed him as that you found it utterly confusing that such a man could be brainwashed and used as a murder machine.
Your heart ached for him, for how misunderstood he was among the antis. You just wanted to hug the man and give him one big forehead smooch. But, oh were you brought back to reality with a hit that you couldn’t really do that without looking creepy.
"Who? Bucky?" Peter smirked, interrupting you from looking at him. Your willed your heart to stop racing and plummeting in your stomach.
“I thought his name was James?” You said, tilting your head in confusion. From what you had read in a source, his name was James Buchanan Barnes-
“Yeah but Steve calls him Bucky, so everyone does too.”
“Oh, Bucky. Has a nice ring to it.” You nodded, ignoring his smug expression, “answer my question though. I’m not gonna hit on him if he already has a girlfriend. Wouldn’t be surprised if he did.” You grumbled the next part, trying to ignore the flare of jealousy you felt in your chest.
Peter had made it very apparent to you that he was fully aware of your humongous crush on the winter soldier. And that little shit never let go of it, even when you weren't anywhere near the vicinity of said winter soldier.
"Why do you think I would know?" He scoffed, going back to sipping his own bottle of beer. Scowling at him, you opened your mouth, inhaling sharply.
"I don't know, cause you practically live there?" You shrugged, trying to feign indifference. You knew he looked right through it, if his shit eating grin and flushed cheeks were anything if not confirmation.
"Bold of you to assume he even talks to me. And anyway, he hates my guts, him and Sam always prank me, it's practically a routine." He said, rolling his eyes, swirling his bottle lazily, "why do you want to know that anyway?"
"You know why." You hissed. Turning around, your breath hitched when you saw him staring at You, wondering if he was just staring at your general direction and if you were going to embarrass yourself by waving at him.
Apparently he was looking at you, because you swore saw a tiny wave coming at your direction, a small smile playing on his face.
“And what if he did?”
“What is it to you, kiddo?”
"You both disgust me. Bucky with his constant questions about you and you with your constant questions about him" Peter muttered sarcastically. Ignoring him, you sighed dreaming, slumping on the barstool, "don't you already have a boyfriend anyway?"
“And what about him?” You grumbled, rolling your eyes at the mention of him. He was hardly a boyfriend, more of a fling, an excuse to stop the pain of being single (you were dramatic, you knew). You were over him, broken up not long ago, but Peter didn’t need to know that. You wouldn’t want Peter siccing himself at your worst enemies.
“What I know is that he’s one son of a bitch who doesn’t deserve to be anywhere near you. Why are you dating him again?” Peter said, snapping you out of your daze.
“Do you kiss your girlfriend’s pussy with that mouth?” You scowled, huffing pettily.
“I’m sorry, who’s girlfriend’s what?” Tony said, appearing out of thin air, his mouth hung as he gaped at you and Peter. You snickered at Peter’s flushed and stuttering form, counting that as one win tonight.
“My girlfriend’s lips. Y/N’s stuttering cause she’s too busy staring at Bucky.” Peter said, fixing you with a look, his head tilted adorably, jaw clenched like the way it did when he was done with your bullshit.
“Hey I’m not staring at him! He’s just so gorgeous- look at him!” You giggled, watching him stumble from his stool, the alcohol in your veins making you braver than before. You had endured more than one round of teasing from the team about your very obvious crush on one Bucky Barnes, yet you went on with your babbling.
“Yeah yeah, you’ve said what what- oh a million times before!” Peter shrieked, hands up in the air, nearly dropping his bottle. Snatching his bottle, you drowned the remaining liquid, dropping it on the counter with a scow, “are you even old enough to drink?”
“Hey! Let me tell you, I’m turning twenty one in a week, or did you forget?” He said, ignoring Tony, who was shaking his head and grumbling something about being too old for this shit.
“Of course I didn’t forget kiddo.” You said, smiling sadly at him, ruffling his messy brown hair. Ever since you met him, you always loved playing with his hair. They were fluffy, just like your cat’s, “Who allowed you to grow up so fast?”
“Y/n/n! I’m only four years younger than you!”
“Ugh don’t remind me.” It still iffed you to no end that the boy who was once nine years younger than you was now 4 years younger, nevermind that he was mature much beyond his age. Mind briefly averted from one Winter Soldier, you didn’t notice him sit down next to you, startled when he called for you. You didn’t even notice Peter giving you a look before Tony dragged him somewhere.
“Hey, you’re Y/n right? Peter’s-” He started, your brain short circuiting when you saw his piercing blue eyes- the most beautiful shade of blue you had ever seen, staring at you, a small smirk playing on his stubbled jaw. You gulped internally, clearing your throat and sitting straight.
“Neighbour? Yes that’s me.” You nodded enthusiastically, smiling as much as you could without cringing at your ecstatic behaviour.
“I know.”
“Cool.”
Shuffling in your seat, you opened your mouth to speak, only for him to speak before both of you were interrupted by your laughter. Getting yourself together, you gestured for him to talk, “go ahead.”
“So, should I buy you a drink?”
“Only if you let me buy you one.”
And that’s how it started. One drink turned to another, and next thing you knew you were kissing him, his hands in your hair, the cold of his metal arm placed firmly on your bare waist as he bunched your t-shirt up in a fist.
For a moment you weren’t aware of your surroundings, the only thing you could feel was his t-shirt fisted in your hands, his freezing palm causing an eruption of goosebumps on your skin as the cold air of the room hit you full force. Panting, you scrambled for the door, holding his hands in the darkened room as you followed him blindly.
Crashing your lips to his once again, you moan under your breath, chest hitching as you scrambled for your shirt and bra, pulling it over your head as you watched him do the same, smirking at the very apparent bulge on his blue jeans.
“Do you have a condom? You panted, tracing his biceps with your nails as you pulled him so that you were chest to chest, your nipples hardening as your bare chests made contact. You could feel your pussy throbbing, groaning at your already growing lady boner, the place between your thighs slick with wetness.
“In my pocket.” He answered, lifting you up as you wrapped your legs around him, throwing you on the bed with questionable stains. You moaned as he dropped his weight on you, his hands burning flames on your skin as he traced patterns on your bare arms, kissing you with a vigor.
Your hands reached for his jeans pocket, fumbling to find the packet of condom while he traced his lips on your neck, nibbling at the curve of your shoulder, making you shudder with excitement.
“Are you sure you-”
“Yes. I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t.”
“Whatever you say doll.”
Your stomach coiled when he called you that, groaning in pleasure as he roughed you up with his hands, his jeans sliding off, leaving his bare thighs barely visible to your eye. His eyes were somehow still illuminated in the dark room, leaving you even more wet than before. You never knew his eyes could turn you on so much that he made you come even before he could slide inside you.
Thrusting your hips, you watched impatiently as he slid the condom on his hardened dick, asking you for permission once more before sliding into you, his hips thumping with yours as he gradually increased his pace, hitting your spot.
“You’re so beautiful, so pretty under me. Perfect little wet pussy you got there doll.” He whispered, closing his eyes as you continued to run your fingers through his hair, holding onto his back with one of your hands, nails digging into his flesh, unable to form any words.
“I’m close.” You moaned, rolling your hips with his as he continued to move, panting, one hand on the headboard and the other on your boobs, keeping you firmly planted on the shitty pub mattress as he kneaded the soft skin, the brush of his fingers on your pebbled nipple your last straw as you finally gave into your climax.
“You good?” He asked, his dick still inside you as you came all over him. Sliding out, you lay on the dirty sheets, your bare body shivering with the excessive hormones that took over you, realising that you had just fucked James Buchanan Barnes.
“Yeah, I’m good, Great. Amazing. Wow I can’t believe this happened.” You said, holding the thin sheet up to your chest as you saw him in the dim lights. His chest was glistening with sweat, his hair stuck to his forehead as you saw him discard the condom in a bin. Biting your lip, you tried not to stare at his bare ass, clenching your thighs.
He gave you a friendly smirk when he caught you, thankful for the dark room, for you couldn’t stand him looking at your burning cheeks.
“You know you can look right?” He smiled, holding your cheek in his cold palm, your own palms sweating as he straddled you, his frame encompassing yours as he towered over you, your thighs already pulsing, begging for a round two as-
“Oh, oh jesus you have nice fingers.” You giggled as he inserted his two fingers in your pulsing core, jerking your hips as he navigated through your slick folds.
“It’s actually Bucky, but Jesus would do too.” He said, silencing you with another kiss. He gave a throaty growl as you kissed him harder, slicking back his hair with one hand, scratching at his scalp with your nails. Smirking under the kiss, you continued to do so until he increased his pace, your throbbing core giving in to the stimuli.
It was somehow easy for you to forget that the man you barely knew had made you come twice in the same night.
“Do you- do you want to go out sometime? Preferably without that Parker kid trailing behind you like a puppy?” Bucky huffed, ceasing his movement to look at you, your mouth open, wiping the smudged lipstick with a finger.
“Aw he has good intentions.” You smiled, licking your lips teasingly as he rolled his eyes, “admit it he’s a good kid.”
“Are you really talking about Parker while I’m fingering you?”
“What? Ew. No, just, he thinks you hate him.” You giggled, shifting on the sheets a little to release your straining pelvis from cramping.
“I don’t hate him, he’s a good kid, but he’s also a little shit at times.” He said, a fond look in his eyes. Your heart clenched at his expression, slowly pulling out of his grasp as you flopped on the bed, turning and looking at him.
“He do be like that sometimes. But to answer your question, yes I would love to go on a date with you.” You smiled, burying your nose in his neck, not even caring that some drunk people might walk in on you two. No one had so far, so you didn’t really care.
To say that you were whipped would be an understatement. You started visiting the compound more often, came to movie nights, spent more time with everyone (especially him).
“No!” You laughed, giggling as he picked you up bridal style, “Bucky! Jeez put me down right this instant or I’ll stick fridge magnets on you!”
You were instantly dropped on your feet, sighing when you felt his arms circle your waist, pulling your back to his chest. The tower was empty, everyone going back to their respective workplaces. It was only the two of you. You could hear him hum under his breath.
“Fridge magnet? Are they those sticky things that stick on fridges?”
“Yes Bucky, that’s exactly what they are. I thought they existed in the 20s?” You scoffed, turning around, falling on his firm chest. Circling your hands around his waist, you pondered at how close you had gotten with him in just a few days. Heck, every time you visited, it felt like you were just growing closer, until you felt your relationship tying in a tight knot. With a snap, you realised that your life might as well be in ruins was he not yours at this moment.
“Only rich people had them.”
Maybe you were going overboard with your feelings, maybe you were rushing things, but you didn’t mind. Getting close to people wasn’t always your strongest suit, but with this man, you didn’t mind having silent conversations. Until you could feel his fingers on every inch of your being.
With your heart thudding in your chest, you realised that you could spend your entire life tightening the knot of your heart with his, listen to him breathe as you laid by his bedside, play silly games with him. You were in love with this man.
“What are you thinking about?” He smiled, still swaying in your embrace.
“Nothing much.”
A/N: the ending is a little questionable but lemme know what you think! Requests are open! :)

Okay hear me out but like,, I never understood the You and I Bridge motif ? (Idk what to call it xD Just know that I mean the tune of the lyrics, "there's something that I want to ask you; don't say no, just hear me out", etc.)
To be fair, in terms of how long I've been a fan, I'm definitely a baby bapo stan. But I've never really seen anyone explain it before, so I'm just gonna give my take on it :D (If you have your own, please let me know!! x )
The first time we hear this tune is in the bridge of the song You And I, when Peter tries to convince Jason to audition for the school play. The lyrics in this section are posed as just a common conversation, just Peter wanting to spend more time with Jason and Jason being uninterested in theatre; yet if we strip the interaction bare, we see it's actual thematical meaning. Acting—and specifically acting in musical theatre— is a common stereotype typically associated with gay men, an image Jason definitely does not want to project. He replies by saying he'll be busy with baseball (sports are commonly associated with heteronormative masculinity). This exchange shows Jason trying to prove something. He's definitely not interested in acting because tHaT's gAy!! He's totally only interested in mAnLy things like sports!!
This tune is very prominent in the closing song of the act, One. Here we can quickly say that this is again Jason trying to prove something, only more desperately this time, which is true. However, we cannot leave the other party out of this— Ivy. Why was this motif given to her as well? Could it be...she's also trying to prove something?
I would've honestly let her off the hook and brushed it off as just, "sumn sumn reputation", or even, "well I mean it just sounds good", but something caught my attention and prevented me from doing so.
"What the hell, the bed's still warm/ 'Cause Ivy never sleeps alone/ Same old gift from different givers/ Throw the dog another bone!"
In all the other instances of this motif occurring, Jason is a significant part of the song. Here though, he's only really important at its end. Now why would this motif, a symbol of hiding and projecting an image that isn't yours, associated with Ivy too? What is she trying to prove? That she is way more than her body count and that she can fall in love too? Maybe, and maybe that's what you wanna take away from this post. But, coupled with her lyrics in Touch My Soul (and possibly even Portrait of A Girl and All Grown Up, but this post is long enough as it is), I think we have pretty steady ground to argue lesbian Ivy as canon.
Sorry for the long post but I have stuff to do and this won't leave my brain xD
TL;DR:
The music of Bare seems to back wlw Ivy
Even with no words, the notes themselves tell a story
#lesbian ivy motif#wHEW that was long#i love how conversational bapo feels when their characters interact#it feels so personal and close to home#and it even delivers deeper meanings and connections to the themes of the show#this was just sleepy brain vomit pls dont take me seriously#wait no DO take me seriously#bapo#bare a pop opera#ivy robinson#wlw ivy <3#if no one can refute this can we pls call the motif or sumn#even if you disagree pls share i rlly wanna know abt this tune mystery#what if all of yall know the meaning and im just dumb#that would be embarrassing#kweenie screams

Just a fun little thing based on the Edge response for this ask cause fun. Male yandere mc cause I'm gay deal with it XD Hope ya enjoy @battlemaiden13 !
I hum happily as I twirl around my kitchen. After I learned my darling Edge only rejected me for not being romantic enough? Well I did maybe go off on a bit of a venting spree in the forest, but I blame that bastard for trying to hide his stolen shit so close to my house. Either way I may have been sad but if it's romance he wants then I'll give it to him! I've spent all week practicing my cooking skills for this dinner, and I hope he enjoys it... Ah, I even got some beautiful fresh roses from my friend Peter, and all it took was a trade for some drugs for his new boytoy! Ah I hope he enjoys it, I would hate to have to use that backup dessert and tie him up in my basement... I wonder if he'd cook with me like this...? Ah it would be so nice, being so close to my darling like that~ Maybe we could even do more things together, it'd be amazing...~! Well then, I better make sure everything's ready, he said he'd be over in only a few hours! After all, what kind of boyfriend would I be to make my darling wait when he's always so punctual?
So, not sure if this counts as an ask, but how would Yandere!Edge react to this? Being invited over for a nice dinner and given fresh red roses by his current yandere crush who then asks him out again after being rejected the first time?

May I please request Peter with an s/o on the autism spectrum? I’m on the spectrum irl and I live for Peter content. This blog gives me life, istg.
I did some headcanons! aaaaa you're so sweet, thank you! ;w;
he's... he's trying XD
Sometimes he gets a little annoyed if (Name) doesn’t pick up on his sarcasm. Ain’t they been with him long enough to know how he talks? He might make a stupid remark about Wendy’s hair or something, only for his S/O to say, “Hey, that’s really mean, why would you say that to your sister??” That’s when he groans and starts sulking, and Wendy has to explain that he was just trying to be funny. Bonus points if, even once he gets better at not sulking, it slips his mind and he ends up making some comment that hurts his S/O’s feelings. When that happens, he can’t count on Wendy to explain or apologize; he has to put on the big boy pants and go do it himself, because he didn’t mean to hurt them.
As long as they don’t get offended should he happen to fall asleep, he’ll listen to them talk about their special interests/hyperfixations for as long as they want to talk. He simply might fall asleep half because he’s tired, and half because their voice is actually soothing. (… Well. Unless they raise their voice while talking because they’re passionate. In that case, he won’t fall asleep. Probably.) He makes sure he gives the appropriate noises while listening, until he starts to snore, and he may throw a couple of questions in as well. If nothing else, even if the thing they’re talking about is something he doesn’t really care about, it’s the fact that he listens because he cares about them.
Actually, the circus is not the worst environment for someone like (Name) who likely prefers a routine. Sure, the performances themselves are always different, and they may occasionally find themselves in the company of new people, but really, the way the circus goes about a ‘schedule’ is quite the same from day to day. Get up with Peter and the rest of the first-stringers to eat breakfast. Watch and/or help with practices. Walk around with Peter whilst he antagonizes newbies and friends alike with various comments. Practice some more. Have a small, cozy afternoon tea which is less a tea and more a snack. A little more practice. Help Peter (and Wendy, if they like) into costume as well as assist in touching up their makeup. Go listen to Joker’s usual pre-show pep talk. Sit in the audience and clap for all the performances… or perform if they’re so inclined. After that, mill around with Peter trying to get some tips. Once the audience disperses, it’s time to go lie down in bed and sleep while Peter goes off on the same business he does with the others every night that he won’t talk about. It’s up to (Name) whether or not they wake up once Peter slips back into bed, though. Then everything starts again in the morning. Some people think of it as a rut, Peter included, but he’s thankful that his S/O sees it as predictable and comforting!
Is spectacularly bad at handling meltdowns, in part because his own temper gets in the way. The best way he can handle them is to get worked up and drag his S/O off somewhere else. That may not be a good option depending on how they respond to being touched while upset, or whether a change of scenery will offer any relief; it’s still the least horrible way he can possibly respond to the situation. The very first time it happened, he got stuck in shouting, “Wot’s wrong?! Wot’s the problem?! Will y’ fuckin’ talk t’ me?!” which obviously only made things worse. After adjusting, and apologizing for yelling, he’s gotten a lot better at not freaking out alongside them. It stands that he’s just… not equipped to help them as much as he’d like to. Seeing them melt down makes him anxious, because he doesn’t want them to suffer, and unfortunately his reaction to anxiety is to get angry. He’ll get better at it as he learns, so right now, he just knows that getting them away from whatever initially caused the meltdown (crowds/sensory overload, a specific trigger, loud noises, etc.) is the best thing he can do. Even if his methods for doing so are a little rough, he’s trying his hardest to help.
#onehellofashadynerd#Black Butler#Kuroshitsuji#Peter#headcanons#romantic#slice of life#he's trying so hard he just!!! aaaaaaaaaa#one hell of a queue

MAG 159 Relisten
Activity on my first listen: You know, for the life of me I cannot remember what I was doing or even where I was when I listened to MAG 159 and 160. I know it was the next day and that I was working in the garden at MAG 160. But those two... My brain just blanked it seems XD
Episode title "The Last"... The last mark... Thanks ashes, I probably would have never got that xD I thought it has something to do with Martin and Jon being in the Lonely. The last always makes me think of being forsaken.
Ahhh, the gentle crashing of the waves. I think I didn't really register them when I heard that episode the first time because I remember being a bit confused why I had the image of them being on a beach in my head...
JON: "What’s wrong, Lukas? Afraid of talking face-to-face?"
PETER: "(chuckles) "Of course. Or haven’t you been paying attention?"
Yeah, I feel you Peter XD (My fear sign is the Eye and I’m Lonely is my Ascendant xD)
PETER: "So. What are you seeking? The image you’ve each created of the other?"
You can only know a person in that way of the image you created of them. I can't know what they're thinking, or really feeling. I do think Jon and Martin had enough time to create a educated image of each other! This capacity to understand other people is called theory of mind btw.
I have a hard time getting into ships, because a lot of times I don't see them coming, no development, no tell-tale dynamic etc. I don't see this gradual and slow dancing around each other happening. This doesn't mean it can't be a slow burn, there are times a ship gets canon after a long time, but when they first see each other they're already so obviously set up to be a couple that it doesn't feel natural to me. I don't know if that’s an aro thing, but I've never understood this "love at first sight"... or even "love at third sight" although friends told me that this very much exists for them... We don't see Jon and Martin doing super much stuff together, but that's because it's not important for the story. Important is, that we know that it is happening. And I saw that with Jon and Martin. I saw them probably spending more time in the second half of S1 because Martin lived in the Archives and Jon is a workaholic. That interaction in MAG 40, where Martin almost starts crying for accidentally leaving Jon (and Tim) and the way Jon answers sympathetically. We know Martin fusses a lot about Jon in S2 ("very attentive to my needs" xD), and Martin knows about Jon's Distortion stab wound. And then they had lunch together at least once and I like to think they did this more often (even if Jon convinces himself he does it to observe Martin as a murder suspect - and while we're on it, Martin asked if he should bring Jon something from the cafe and Jon decides on his own to go with him... so he can't poison him of course!!!11). Aaaand then Jon finds out about Martin's CV, which also brings them closer. Okay, you see where this is going? None of these actions were already meant in a romantic way by Jon, but because of them he got to know Martin better. This is just romance (accidentally) written very, very well! Perhaps the fact, that it wasn't planned makes it feel so natural and not like a forced set-up from the beginning.
PETER: "The people you think you love don’t exist. Not really."
So we've decided on counting Elias' not really in MAG 158, which was not-really 21. Oh, this episode still has a few of them^^
Not-really counter of S4: 22!
JON: "The Lonely and the Eye aren’t too far apart, are they? Not really. "
Not-really counter of S4: 23! (I told you we're still getting somewhere^^)
Also, I think the Lonely and the Eye are still tricky. Because not being seen, so being hidden, is also very lonely. Peter doesn't like being found, so there the Eye works against the Lonely (similar to the Dark with the Extinguished Sun being seen).
JON: "Come on, we’ve got to get out of here."
MARTIN: (echoing) "No. No, I don’t think so."
That sound effect while Martin answers. I have seen this often depicted as Jon trying to reach out to Martin, but just swirling through Martin like mist. But that is actually exactly like this sounds!
MARTIN: (wry laugh) "I really loved you, you know?"
AHHHHHHHHHH! Although Jon told him it's really him, Martin doesn’t believe it. That's just what imagination!Jon would say. It sounds like Martin is talking to his own imagination of Jon, saying goodbye to him. He's saying this to come to terms with his fate of fading away now and this is also why he uses past tense. Because he also thinks he's stopped existing. If there is no Martin anymore, then he also can't love Jon anymore, right? (Just like in MAG 170. If Martin forgets himself, there is nothing left for Jon to know his way to.)
JON: "Obviously he’s done something. Peter’s done something to mess with you– Damn it! Martin! Martin!"
Jon knows there is something very wrong with Martin, and it only took Martin to say that he past tense-loved him for Jon to notice it.
PETER: (echoing) "I tried to tell you. He’s gone. He made his choice. And it wasn’t you."
Because of this sentence I always thought it was Peter letting Jon find Martin, so Jon could learn it from Martin himself, that he doesn't want to be with him anymore. Hoping it would break Jon.
JON: "It was for me, though. I’m the reason he…"
Aaaand Jon isn’t so convinced about that. He knows Martin did still care about him.
JON: "I did this to him as much as you."
PETER: "Yes. I suppose you did."
Eehhh, bit of pessimism coming through though. And Peter immediately latches on to this to get Jon's guilt going. Telling him the fates of all his friends are his fault.
PETER: "You’re alone, Archivist. The last one standing."
That probably made me think the episode title was meant to refer to a person. After all, being the last means being alone.
PETER: "perhaps it would be better if you stayed a while. After all – you can’t hurt anyone in here."
JON: (seemingly defeated) "Yes."
PETER (AS THE ARCHIVIST’S ECHO): "Yes."
JON: (flatly) "Or perhaps you could answer some questions."
PETER: (echoing) "…what?"
[STATIC RISES AND DEEPENS AS THE ARCHIVIST SPEAKS]
JON: "I wouldn’t try to leave if I were you. I can see you now. I can find you wherever you go."
Poor Peter, getting played by everyone today... Played by Martin, which means he lost his bet with Elias and now even the wet paper bag of an Archivist gets him. I love it every time Jon gets all angry using his powers. And he flat out threatens Peter here.
PETER: "From what I understand, severing the connection to your humanity is a cornerstone of an upper-class education…"
Yeah, that sounds about right. Only keeping people because you can use them, not because you like them. And at a certain level, you can't be more successful if you're not willing to hurt others, to live on their expenses... That probably doesn't make you very popular.
PETER: "I had no time for books or television, or any of the escapes and artificial friendships of fiction."
Hm yes, clever that this is addressed. Parasocial relationships are relationships after all. And they are dangerous in a sense because with them you actually shape that celeb/character/influencer/whatever exactly how you want them to be. Especially with characters, they don't have a mind on their own, they are exactly what you make them to be. And that's probably without any flaws that bother you, ever in favor of you. That friend, who is just perfect. And that can keep you from making actual friends. Because real people aren't perfect, they won't always do what you want to do and that's complicated and frustrating. Why stick around with them, when there's this perfect person just around the corner of your mind.
PETER: "My crew is out there, waiting for a call I think I am now unlikely ever to give them."
Does that mean he's already suspecting not to get out of this alive?
PETER: "The thing is, the loneliness I crave, that fills my heart with that reassuring unease, relies on distance from other people. But a world without people at all, or at least anything I would recognize as people…? It is meaningless. Without the lighted window in the distance, how am I to see myself apart from it?"
Hmmm, and that is what makes the Lonely close to the Eye, even though the Eye can be very dangerous for the Lonely.
You know, Peter's ritual could have been a perfect reverse panopticon. (And therefore a perfect middlefinger as celebration to his 5th divorce with Elias xD) Picture a round building, spread out the windows and you would never be able to see the neighboring one around the corner. So instead of being able to see everyone on the inside, you can't see anyone on the outside.
I'm not a flat-person, but Peter's design sounds actually wonderful to me...? xD
PETER: "Do you know how she did it? What devastating weapon she used to derail my plan? The newspaper. She tipped off someone in The Guardian."
Yeah, even when not looking at the consequence of people not wanting to rent any of Lukas' flat anymore, I'm guessing the press can also be very invasive. Peter must have hated that.
JON: "hat was his prize? What did he get if you lost?"
PETER: (disinterested) "Oh, he got you."
This might be the most last-minute foreshadowing in TMA xD
JON: "Tell me, or I will rip it out of you."
PETER: "No…"
[THE STATIC GROWS LOUDER.]
JON: "Answer my question!"
PETER: (echoing again) "No! Leave… me… ALONE!"
JON: "TELL ME!"
[THE SQUEALING CRESCENDOS AS THE ARCHIVIST RIPS PETER LUKAS APART. LUKAS LETS OUT A FINAL DEFIANT SCREAM THAT FADES INTO THE REGULAR STATIC.]
After Brutal Pipe Murder this might be the second most brutal thing we hear live on TMA. That splash-sound, letting us know that he was indeed ripped apart, blood and gore splattering all over the place. I never had the impression that this was Jon's intention. I always thought it was very clear, that this is exactly how Alex and Jonny described it in one of the Q&As - like pulling on a person's arm with enormous strength for so long it finally just rips off.
JON: "But we need you. (desperately) I need you."
OMG this is happening *OFMD Lucius style*
MARTIN: "No, you don’t. Not really."
There it is... the TRUE reason this episode is called The Last. Because this is the last not-really of S4. It has been an honor to point this out and perhaps ruin this a bit for some of you now that you're aware of it and can't unhear it. And with these words, I now will say for The Last time:
Not-really counter of S4: 24!
JON: "I don’t just want to survive!"
MARTIN: "I’m sorry."
JON: "Martin. Martin, look at me. Look at me and tell me what you see."
Jon can't get through to Martin, not by talking. But a picture is worth more than a thousand words.
MARTIN: "I see…"
[MARTIN’S VOICE QUAVERS.]
MARTIN: "I see you, Jon."
[HE LETS OUT AN INCREDULOUS CHUCKLE, THEN ANOTHER. HIS ECHO GOES AWAY.]
MARTIN: "I see you."
JON: (relieved) "Martin."
[MARTIN’S BREATHING GETS FASTER. HE SOBS, HIS VOICE BREAKING.]
Ahhhh, this is really happening!!! (Jon let Martin see his love, right? Let him feel it! God, I can imagine so well how Jon takes Martin's face in his hands so he has to look at him. And then Martin breaks down and Jon just goes in to embrace him.)
MARTIN: "I… I was on my own. I was all on my own."
JON: "Not anymore. Come on. Let’s go home."
MARTIN: "How?"
JON: "Don’t worry. I know the way."
[THEY BEGIN TO WALK, AND THE TAPE ENDS.]
This did happen! Jon takes Martin's hand and safely leads them out of the mist of the Lonely, right? I wonder though... Where did they come out? I feel like at the panopticon again would be a bit dangerous for Jonah. If they came out right there again, why didn't they, say, take Jonah's body with them? Drag him off his throne, take his power from him. I mean, a bit unromantic, sure, finally hand in hand with the one you love and then there's this old corpse of a third wheel, urgh... But Elias was very insistent to get Jon to grow his powers, he didn't do that for nothing. There still is something Elias wants with Jon.
Well, that's it folks, this was The Magnus Archives! They went home and lived happily ever after, right?....
Right?...
Those two scenes with Jon and Martin were just written beautifully, it was perfect! I was so psyched for them to finally be together, that pining was almost unbearable! (almost!)
Not just is JonMartin a wonderful slow burn with lots of unresolved tension (like S4 was perfect for this, have another obstacle to drag this out even more the moment the other person finally realizes their feelings! And again, it didn't feel forced. Often these obstacles in slow burn romances get pretty ridiculous and you can see how this was done just to keep them apart even longer.), this is also not the end of it! I love slow burns, but I hate having the ship finally getting canon on the very last episode(s) of the entire series! It's so frustrating, it's what you're waiting for the whole time and then you don't get to actually enjoy it because the story is over. And even this TMA does exactly how I like it, because this is only S4 and we still get an entire season canon JonMartin!
Not gonna lie, there were certain ships I liked and routed for, Adrienette (Miraculous), Catradora (She-Ra), but I was never die-hard invested in them. JonMartin hit me like a train! I never got this borderline obsessiveness with some ships (a good friend of mine for example is a HUUUGE Stucky fan) and yeah, I get it now. And it's not even, that this plot point was sooo surprising for me because that was the one thing I caught a spoiler of, JonMartin. Buuuut, it was only sometime at the beginning of S3, and I already saw potential for them as a ship by the end of S1 and beginning of S2, so even the spoiler wasn't that big of a surprise to me. And I of course didn't know when and how it would happen, only that it's going to be canon.
@a-mag-a-day (also thanks for reblogging my What-if fanart of MAG 158!! I totally forgot I had that, lol

Team Vacation
Summary: Reader and Quill have had a fwb relationship for a while but have both secretly caught feelings. During a team vacation, Pepper manages to get Reader to reveal her feelings to an eavesdropping Quill.
TW/CW: Peter Quill x Stark!Reader. I’m not sure how to describe the timeline/au/whatchamacallit but basically none of the heroes died I’m looking at you Tony, Nat, and Vision or retired I’m looking at you Steve, no not you Clint, you’re perfectly fine but it is post Endgame. For clarity’s sake, Peter = Peter Parker, Quill = Peter Quill lol. Pretty fluffy but also some hints at a fwb relationship. Obvi Quill & Gamora aren’t a thing in this weird ass AU I’ve cooked up lmao.
Requested?: No
Word Count: 1,343
Author’s Note: I’m honestly not sure where this idea came from but here it is! I will say that “Fooled Around and Fell in Love” by Elvin Bishop came to mind while writing it lol. It actually turned out a lot better than I thought it would XD. I hope you enjoy it and as always Requests are Open!
I press play on the Awesome Mix on Spotify as Quill, Gamora, and Thor finally make their way over to my car, after convincing Groot, Rocket, Drax, and Mantis into an SUV with Nat & Steve. Quill loses the battle for shotgun as Thor simply lifts him up out of his way and takes a seat in the front passenger seat. Gamora and I both stifle our laughs to save Quill’s ego. As I shift into drive and begin following the SUV, Quill grumbles something about, “Why does it have to be raining? The day we have to arrive on Earth and it decides to rain.”
I see Gamora roll her eyes in my rearview mirror as Thor tries to cheer Quill up, “You’ll love Stark’s home. It is very cozy indeed and there is lots of land and space to roam. It will be quite an adventure.”
“Why again did he insist that we join in on this team vacation?” Peter inquires.
I chuckle at his whiny demeanor, “Call it extending an Olive Branch. After everything we all went through, he and Steve decided everyone deserves a bit of a vacation and Steve wants to welcome you guys into the family. Besides, even Carol was able to clear her schedule for a bit and join us.” His next bout of mumbling and grumbling is indecipherable so I train my focus back on the road. Within no time the rain retrears and we are turning onto the long, winding driveway that leads to my brother’s estate. As we pull up to the house, Morgan races out to greet everyone and of course her big “brother” is right in tow behind her. Peter lifts Morgan onto his shoulders so that she is eye level with Thor; they’re both giggling their heads off.
Tony makes his way over to help carry luggage into the house and Pepper joins Nat in watching Peter and Thor chase Morgan around the yard. I step out of the car and join Quill on the other side, “Do you really think it’ll be so terrible to just spend some time with family and friends? It’ll be nice to feel like you don’t have to be constantly doing something won’t it?” With this, I leave him to his moping and join Tony in carrying in luggage.
Once all the luggage has been carried in and delivered to the proper rooms, I make my way to my own room to change clothes and get ready for dinner which Tony says will be ready soon. I find my room easily and close the door behind me as I enter. A mischievous grin makes its way onto my face as I hear Quill singing in the bathroom as he showers. I quickly change clothes but before I can finish Quill is exiting the bathroom and leaning against the door frame, “I was wondering who I’d be bunking with. Seeing as there’s only one bed I was desperately hoping it’d be you.”
Knowing Pepper and everything I had confided in her about, she probably did this on purpose and I make a mental note to thank her later as I pull on my flannel and make my way towards the door to join the others outside, stopping on the way to kiss Quill on the cheek, “You can thank Pep for that. See you outside, dress warm it’ll get cold even with a bonfire going.”
I find Pepper in the kitchen sipping hot cocoa, “Assuming you’re happy with your roommate. Hot cocoa?”
I nod, “He seems to be as well, and yes please.”
“Well, do be careful because your brother will be asking questions when he puts two and two together and realizes you’re not bunking alone as planned,” she says as she starts a hot cocoa k-cup in the Keurig.
I giggle, “You and I both know it’ll be a hot minute before he takes a breather and notices anything. He’ll be busy with making sure no one destroys anything important.”
She hands me a mug of steaming hot cocoa, “Fair enough.” I smile as we both wander out onto the porch. I watch as Bucky and Sam bicker back and forth about who knows what as they man the grill with Dr. Banner. Rocket is begging Tony to let him light the bonfire with a flamethrower. Gamora and Nat have made themselves comfy on the porch swing and Pepper and I join them, taking seats in a couple of rocking chairs. The four of us laugh as Nat points out that Steve is having to explain the concept of a bonfire to Drax and Mantis. Groot is talking to the large oak tree from which a tire swing hangs. This tire swing holds a still giggling Morgan and is being pushed back and forth by Thor and Peter. The only ones unaccounted for as Quill steps out onto the porch, are Clint, who is arriving tomorrow with his wife and kids, and Wanda and Vision, who will be arriving shortly, they had to stop at a store for Paprikash ingredients.
My eyes follow Quill out to the fire where Tony and Rocket are still locked in debate about the flamethrower but my focus is torn away by the women giggling around me. I glare at the three of them, “What?”
“I honestly didn’t think you’d be as obvious about it as Quill is,” Gamora laughs.
“I’m- I- How?” I stutter out.
“Oh please, if anyone so much as mentions Earth or Stark or anything else having to do with you, Quill is off on in a daydream or rambling on about how amazing you are. I’d be surprised if he hasn’t fooled around and fell in love.”
I tear my gaze away as Nat chimes in, “So I wasn’t mistaken in thinking that those two had a little something going on? (Y/N), was quite excited when Steve mentioned wanting the Guardians here for this little vacation.”
Pepper nearly dies of laughter, “Oh they have more than just a little something going on. I wish they’d hurry up and admit their feelings for each other.”
My head whips back around, “I’ll admit, he’s a hell of a good time but I do not have feelings for Quill,” I state defensively. However, the look Nat gives me says she calls my bluff and knows I’m lying, so does Pep and Gamora.
“Yes, you do. You know how I can tell? I’ve known you for years and never have I seen you as hung up on a guy as you are on him. If you didn’t have feelings for him, you would be flirtier with other guys and still go on dates,” Pepper states and I almost think I notice her eyes flick to the side and back but brush it off as her checking on Morgan or Tony.
I sigh in defeat, “Fine, you caught me but let’s be careful about Tony, I’m not sure how he’d react.” Just as the words tumble out of my mouth, Tony is yelling that the food is ready and I’m dragged off to join everyone else around the now lit bonfire and the grill and tables laden with food. Morgan waves at me from Thor’s shoulders as I approach. I wave back and because I wasn’t watching where I was going, I bump into someone. This someone chuckles and pulls me in front of them to wrap their arms around me and I quickly realize it is Quill, “Glad to know you feel the same.” I look up at him and as he kisses my forehead, a smile grows on my face. I glance over at the ladies and they all grin triumphantly. Out of the corner of my eye I notice Rocket forking over some money to Thor. I wouldn’t doubt that they had a bet running about me and Quill. I find this amusing but decide to tune into the speech my brother is giving and soon he finishes with, “Everyone enjoy your stay! Let’s dig in!”

Interview with a Fic Writer
Tagged by @novantinuum, thank you!
__
How many works do you have on AO3?
242 works. The actual fuck??? Wow, me. Of course, this does span about 9 years, so I guess that's not that insane?
What’s your total word count on AO3
549,737! But that averages out to only 2271 words per story, haha. You got me! I think I have less than 10 fics that have more than 1 chapter. I love one-shots, what can I say?
How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?
Oh, you want to get into this? All right. We'll get into this:
The X-Files, proto-fandom, ur-fandom, first OTP ever... yeah, 15-year-old me went. WILD. Many horrible Mulder/Scully stories, and some Doggett/Scully and character study stories as well. Mostly not very good, but with occasional flashes of decent writing. Really had a difficult time writing romantic feelings between 30+ year-olds given a) I did not date in high school and b) was 17 and not an emotionally stunted FBI agent.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - not a huge volume of stories, but definitely some very angsty Spuffy and Spike tales.
Harry Potter - just one published fic (Lupin grieving Sirius), and one with Snape and Harry having a heart to heart I could never quite get right.
Then came the dark times (vet school) where I was exhausted and hard at work for a few years and I thought, horribly, I might have outgrown fandom. Thank god for...
X-Men First Class and the undying love of Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr! I'd never fallen for a slash ship before but my god I fell hard for this one and wrote my first fandom smut and my first real AU (mutants with zombies) that I never finished.
Then.... let's see...
Quantum Leap drabbles!
Two Avatar the Last Airbender fics!
Agents of SHIELD fics, mostly focused on Coulson and FitzSimmons, and super angsty.
Bioshock Infinite sads (god I love writing the sad bad dad)!
And then the juggernauts of Mass Effect (my longest fic to date with 30 chapters!) and Dragon Age, which were endlessly productive and are still productive given the variety of different protagonists you can create, different choices, and different relationships to canon characters. I'm still working on a Hawke/Varric fic in the back of my mind here.
There's one random Gravity Falls fic (wish I could have got a little more obsessed with it, or gotten into it while it aired) of Stan sads, and one tiny Avengers ficlet of a sad Tony and Peter.
There's one Wheel of Time fic! Dammit I wanted Rand and Tam to reunite so much sooner than they did.
40-odd Steven Universe fics! So many SU fics!
One random Schitt's Creek fic of David and Patrick!
And finally, The Mandalorian, with 47 fics. Phew!!!
What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
1. The Invitation, The Mandalorian. Din Djarin finds himself in dreams that seem realer than real, reminding him of his loss, but he begins to find a sense of hope again. A promise is kept.
2. The Outstretched Hand, The Mandalorian. Din Djarin is a man of action, but sometimes, the quiet finds its way in. Din reckons with the aftermath of the events of Chapter 14, the Tragedy. (My very first Mando fic!)
3. Not the Sentimental Type, Steven Universe. Priyanka Maheswaran has long prided herself on keeping her emotions in check. But a mother's love can only grow, and sometimes it expands to people she never anticipated. Like the Universe boy.
4. Translation, The Mandalorian. Din Djarin was a man of few words, but many languages. Some might have thought the Child had no language at all. Din Djarin and the Child grow to understand each other.
5. Full Disclosure, Steven Universe. Just as the world begins to recover from Spinel's attack, Steven starts having nightmares. The more he ignores his fears, the worse they become, until he's left with no other choice but to ask for help. (My thoughts on what would drive Steven Universe Future, and I wasn't far off.)
Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I really try to! Even sometimes years later if I realize I've missed some. I appreciate each and every one, and have definitely made friendships through comments <3
What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?
Oh, hell... I'm too lazy to link these but if anyone wants to read them let me know or find them on my AO3!
A Stopped Clock from Bioshock Infinite has Booker DeWitt ravaged by Korsakoff's amnesia from his long-standing alcoholism. Is Columbia real or imagined? Hard to say.
The Viscount's Way shows Varric Tethras having become his parent, and a cruel, hard viscount of Kirkwall.
Songs in the Key of Red shows how Cullen fared under the dark future in Redcliffe in DAI, and they write happy endings, don't they? shows what happened to Varric. Both horribly depressing in different ways!
Two by Two, Hands of Blue shows a not unexpected end to lyrium addiction :( Poor Cullen, he got a lot of angsty developments, didn't he?
Do you write crossovers? If so, what’s the craziest thing you’ve ever written?
Never really got into crossovers or AUs. Just... meh for me!
Have you ever received hate on a fic?
No, I don't think so.
Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Charles/Erik, Shepard/Garrus, Shepard/Liara, Shepard/Tali, a mess of different f/f femShep drabbles, and most of my Dragon Age pairings have gotten sexytimes. On the other hand I helped start the NoRomo Mando tag for the Mandalorian to help find non-pairing Mandalorian content. Depends on the pairing and the fandom, for sure.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Nope, thank goodness!
Have you ever had a fic translated?
I think so! There used to be a Spanish-language wiki linking to some of my old X-Files stories XD
Have you ever co-written a fic before?
No, but friends and I definitely will beta each others' things to help with sticky points.
What’s your all-time favorite ship?
ALL-TIME? Just, why? So many ships I loved in years past turned out to have pretty damn problematic elements I didn't see at the time, so it's hard to say... Mulder/Scully actually has a ton of issues, Buffy/Spike obviously has issues... so maybe Hawke/Varric (except not canon!) or Garrus/Shepard or Brosca/Alistair.
What’s a WIP you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?
Still need to finish my Hawke/Varric fic for after Adamant! I have 3 chapters written that I haven't posted. Maybe posting them will help inspire me....
What are your writing strengths?
Dialogue and POV writing from different characters; I feel fantastic writing Steven and Greg, though totally at sea trying to write from Connie's POV, randomly. But I think my dialogue and emotional beats are what people tend to tune in for. When I do write romance, it's usually very sweet and silly and pulled from life. I also love writing nature scenes and settings to help establish mood. Mood and emotion and catharsis are my bread and butter, and I like my poetic prose.
What are your writing weaknesses?
What the hell is a long, well-thought-out plot? Like what even is that???? My longest fic with 30 chapters is basically "Shepard has PTSD and hangs out with her crew. They have some funerals." THAT'S IT. How the heck people actually come up with plot that ties into the lore of a fandom I genuinely have no idea and it's the biggest thing that's held me back from finishing original work. I can come up with a setting and characters and then trying to make them do stuff that's more than just talking to other characters and deepening their relationships with them... how the fuck???
I also definitely have 10-20 words that I am in constant danger of reusing like every other paragraph, LOL!
What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
I don't speak any other languages so I always avoid it as much as possible. I've seen people describe sign differently in fics and picked one way to depict it that made sense to me for Grogu, but that's about it.
What was the first fandom you wrote for?
The X-Files, of course!
What’s your favorite fic you’ve ever written?
Towards Another Day, the tale of how Cullen went from being a templar in Kirkwall to commander of the Inquisition, is definitely up there.
Reverberations is one of my rare multi-chaptered fics and one of my favorite for the catharsis at the end. It makes me tear up every time. 5 times Din and Grogu encounter the Dark Side, and one time they find the Light.
Either a world for the birds (Steven develops a closer relationship with his Uncle Andy, learning birdwatching along the way) or on the subject of rocks (Steven and Jasper finally reach a peace) might take the prize for favorite SU fic.
