you and oliver were gonna go on a date today, but first you had to do some business with natasha, thanos was back, you found him near a jungle, your witch skills were coming in handy, natasha set up some drones with bombs, missiles and some surprises, shrotly after you started a spell, you summoned purple magic chains and casted them to tie down thanos, he yelled snapping his fingers, everyone got blasted away. natasha threw some drones, she got onto one of the trees and into a starship that was gignatic she shot missiles with a net shocking thanos, before you could cast a stun spell he reversed time.
now he threw an energy wave, which hit natasha, she dropped and fainted, you quickly flew over to the ship to heal her, wanda, came along "im here now lets go" she said as she threw fire balls are thanos.
after a couple minutes wanda was coughing up blood, thanos had a grasp. but natasha was back now, she launched a missile with 25 other smaller missiles, he got pushed back, you threw boulders at him, soon he spawned robots that started to shoot at the drones, starships, "help!!" screamed wanda. "here hold on" you said, trying to get her onto the starship, but wanda was crying, coughing up blood, you were speechless and scared, "ahhh" you yelled as you got hit with a laser.the both of you fell down, but natasha used her titanium sword which was able to repel the affects of thanos, releasing wanda from his grasp, shortly after wanda picked up air, and she lauched a tornando at him, sending him a couple feet back.
you were hurt, but slowly recovering, you released 2 clones to fight for you while you were recovering, a green starship pulled up shooting at thanos it was oliver, he shot a green arrow at his skull, thanos yellwed as he fell, he quickly sent another shock wave, you performed a new spell taking controll of his mind.
wanda threw firre balls, he quickly snapped back and sent a magical red chain holding onto everyone but oliver, oliver shot him again and sent a rocket releasing everyone from the chains, soon another starship bigger then all of the ones there combined, it dropped a gigantic missile, you all moved away.
thanos was close to giving in, wanda kept throwing fire balls along with throwing a tower over him, but thanos released a eletric shockwave that kept disrupted you spell, you threw new spells to freeze thanos's, arms, you and wanda threw together a spell now thanos was coughing up blood, oliver threw new bombs causing thanos to fall. before, oliver could give a fishing blow.

"Y/N you are beyond beautiful so handsome" you smirked, he gave you a soft kiss, while you rubbed your hands up and down his abs. "love these, they are rock hard" you said kissing his abs.
"ride me" he whispered into your ear, you shivered, you quickly undressed as he did, you got ontop of him and started grinding. "fuck, your already gonna make me come" you smirked, going faster. "do some sexy witch stuff darling" you lit some candles afar from the room, you moaned as oliver grabbed you harder. you started to draw symbols across his abs. "fuck, your so beyond sexy" you held you tighter, you felt his dick pulsing.
"Y/N, fuck… you have me pulsing, you make me feel so much bliss…. I cannot put it into words"
"thank you oliver." "someones dick is pulsing" you said with a smirk. he moaned being at your mercy. you loved this power you had over oliver, "fuck… your fingers feel so good on my skin and your insides are just… bliss" you moaned louder as oliver praised you.

Say the word
Jason Todd x Reader
It’s kinda heartwarming
Tumblr media
I tried to control my fast breaths, lifting my head from the crook of Jason’s neck to give him a lazy kiss. Deliriousness coursed through our veins, minds hazy from the aftermath bliss of an intimate climax.
Being apart for weeks for his mission and my conference clearly had one gigantic perk- the mad intense I-missed-you-so-fucking-much sex.
It doesn’t matter if it was the first or the thousandth time, the feeling of his body against mine never failed to weaken my limbs to mush and warm my heart, like it’s soup being heated up on a stove.
A smile split my lips as I tried lifting my naked body up from his chest, and failing. The thick, muscular arms that were tightly wrapped around my waist stopped me from doing so. It made me smile wider and lean down to put my lips on Jason’s.
“You know you’re gonna have to stop doing that right?” I murmured, running my fingers through his dark raven locks. A chaste kiss was placed on my cheek by his smirking lips.
“Hmm? Doing what?”
I leaned down so that our bare chests pressed against each other, lips hovering over his. My whisper was naughty as I answered him.
“Why should I? We both seem to like it so very much,” Jason nuzzled his nose against mine with a mischievous smirk.
“Because if by any chance I get preggers before marriage, my parents will chase you to the ends of the earth and decapitate the crap out of you,” I whispered jokingly, but meant every word. “And then after they’re done with you, they’ll feed me to the demons.”
My ever-so-daring boyfriend’s reply was to lowly chuckle and simply kiss my shoulder. 
Affection came naturally to us now, especially since Jason had been touch starved practically since birth. The first few months of our relationship, I had to have a mental debate every time before touching him; how far I should go with the cuddling, to hold his hand or not, put my legs on his body while cuddling or not...
Unlike his brother Dick, who much to Jason’s irritation loved pulling me into a tight hug every time we met, Jason just wasn’t the affectionate type.
After a few months, I understood how badly he needed to be touched- to be loved, to be comforted. When he got the message that it’s okay to hold me as much as he wants, that there’s finally someone he can lose himself in, someone he can love, he found a way to touch me every spare moment we spent together. Kissing my neck, nuzzling his nose, holding my hips, putting his large hand on the small of my back or around my waist, constantly lifting me onto his lap- the list’s never ending.
“I’m serious, a child out of wedlock is beyond just a sinful taboo in my family,” I booped his nose, leaning my forearms on his chest to hold my upper body up.
Jason pretended to be lost in thought for a while before suddenly rolling our bodies over to our sides, the ridges and sinewy muscles of his defined chest flush against my back. He tucked the messy portion of my hair out of the way before kissing from my neck up to the back of my ear. 
“Well since marriage is out of the question, I’ve no option than to not make my pull out game weak,” his tongue darted out to lick my ear teasingly.
Ignoring the pang that hit my heart at his statement about marriage, I turned to swat his chest teasingly. My lips were unable to hold back a grin at his reference to WAP .
“What? You’re the one who keeps dancing to it every morning,” Jason grinned back at me.
“It’s 4 am, we should sleep,” I shook my head at him, turning to face forward again. Jason and my shared bedroom turned dark as he flicked the dim bedside lamp off, making the glow of moonlight our only source of light.
The warmth from having his arms encased around me brought a serene feeling, making me think about how impossible it’d be to live without Jason Todd. 
“I love you,” he murmured against my neck.
My eyes closed shut, senses overwhelmed with the depth of my feelings.
“I love you,” I whispered back.
I had an amazing life- loving and supporting, albeit sometimes overbearing, parents, a great job, a pretty apartment, and a man I’m certain I’d love and be loved by for the rest of my life. For the entirety of my existence, I’ve had the one thing Jason never did- stability. 
But when it’s meant to be, it’ll always be. 
God, fate or whatever higher force is up there looking over us made sure to let our souls find each other. Cherish each other. 
I knew Jason’s views on marriage and children. It was hard enough for him to indulge himself with something as normal as a committed relationship, that too for two and a half years; but it’d actually be impossible for him to be a husband, a father. He didn’t have a basic job in the least, and thus didn’t think tying the knot and being a family man would be suitable for him. 
Ever since I was a little girl, one of the things I’ve wanted greatly was to be married to the man I loved someday. But for Jason I could give it up. I could give up the hopes of having a ring on my finger and a baby on my belly, because he means more to me than anything ever will.
¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡
*2 months later, New Year’s eve night at the Wayne Manor backyard*
“Damian, those aren’t fireworks, they’re explosives!”
At my alarmed exclaim, Dick quickly snatched the big box from his younger brother’s hands, waddling his finger as if to say ‘no no’.
“They’re fireworks,”  Jason assured from behind. “The kid and I labelled it explosives so Dick doesn’t steal it,”
Dick’s face scrunched up in confusion, “”Why would I steal your fireworks? I’ve better things to do for fu-”
“Miss, the barbecue is ready. Would you like to add the last bit of sauce on top?” The always-polite and everyone’s favorite Alfred smartly interrupted Dick from saying the curse word.
Every time I practically forced my boyfriend, his brothers and father into having a family night, Alfred let me help with the food; and since I suck beyond words at cooking, he always gave me the easy tasks to do.
Now if you’re thinking that prevented me from considering myself as the world’s second Martha Stewart, you’re wrong.
I clapped my hands together in delight, “I’d love to!”
“No she wouldn’t,” Jason, Dick and Tim said at the same time.
I turned to them, perplexed at their concurrent interference. 
Taking note of the unusual shiftiness in the boys’ stances, I raised a brow- “And why is that?”
Out of the three suspicious-looking brothers, Dick replied- “Because there’s only 20 minutes till midnight and you have to help us set the fireworks off!”
Now both my eyebrows rose, and I crossed my arms against my chest.
“So you’re telling me,” I said in slow amusement, dragging the words sarcastically. “That three of the strongest night vigilantes of Gotham, one being a violent nutcase once,” a look was thrown in Jason’s direction, “Needs an ordinary girl to set off fireworks?”
This time Tim responded, “Well you see, we’ve never set them off. None of us has ever had the chance to have a normal new years with fireworks and a countdown,”
“Really?” I deadpanned, voice turning into a shrill by the end of the question, “So have I been planning and working my ass off every new year’s for the past three years to make robots happy?”
Tim realized his mistake, sheepishly rubbing the back of his head before trying to redeem himself. “But we’ve never had a family new years, y’know, with the barbecue and fireworks,”
“Also, you’re nowhere near ordinary,” Jason added in a low voice as he came to stand behind me and kissed my temple. I rolled my eyes at the cheesiness, wrapping an arm around the middle of both the boys’ backs.
Right then Damian piped in, surprising everyone. “Plus you’re not a girl, you’re a woman,” he emphasized on the last word, making Jason scoff with a smirk and everyone else laugh.
It didn’t take long for me to grow on Damian, making him accept and like me. From what I heard from his brothers and Alfred, he didn’t like most people and never went easy on newcomers. I was especially concerned about getting Jason’s family to like me, since he didn’t have much of a good relationship with them and I wanted to change that. In the end everyone ended up accepting me; and gradually even treating me as one of their own. Dick and I were practically best friends.
Despite what he used to say, I knew Jason loved them all like they were his own blood; so I knew that it meant a great deal to him to rekindle his relationships with them.
Bruce Wayne’s voice spoke for the first time that evening, “Good evening, my apologies for the delay,”
An awkward silence took over our so-far cozy night. All of the boys looked other directions, not acknowledging their dad who never bothered to show up to any family days on time. I tried my best to knit the boys together, help them get close and create a bond; and saying that I succeeded wouldn’t be a lie. But the fact that Bruce couldn’t even take one day off from his billionaire/ vigilante duties sort of upset me every time.
Jason scoffed, his mouth opening to say something undoubtedly snarky to his father. But before he had the chance to I stepped on his shoe and gripped his hand tightly, silencing him.
“It’s okay Bruce, at least you made it,” I smiled.
The excruciatingly tense atmosphere was cracked by Dick, “I still need help with the fireworks, anyone up for it?”
“I’ll come!” I was quick to squeak and walk towards him.
“Me too,” Damian grumbled, following me.
Tim was the last one. “Yeah, me as well.”
“Great, so you guys do the fireworks and Jaybird and I will be right back!” Dick clapped his hands together in perky delight, pushing Jason’s back forward as they walked into the manor. From the distance, I saw Jason shrug Dick’s hand off before glaring at him. Again, confusion filled me at their strange behavior tonight.
“What was that about?” I asked Tim.
He smiled, “Nothing, probably just vigilante stuff.”
As the minutes passed by, the new year came nearer and nearer. The three of us successfully managed to set off the first batch of fireworks, looking up at the sky and laughing freely. Even Bruce had a small smile as he took a sip of his drink, looking up and the lit up sky with a hand in his pocket.
When it was about 10 minutes to the clock ticking 12:00 am, worry started to cloud the excitement I was feeling; but Tim and Damian were quick to distract it.
“Now can we do the grand purple one?” Damian gave me a rare pleading look.
“Yeah we can, but where’re Jason and Dick? They’re gonna miss new year’s,” I voiced my concern. 
Right then, my phone started ringing. 
Incoming video call from mom.
I answered, knowing that my parents were calling to say Happy New Year like they did every year. What rendered me surprised after receiving the call was that almost my entire family was on the frame of my mom’ video- two of my aunts, uncles and all the cousins I’m close to. Which are a lot.
I’m a family person, if you couldn’t tell already.
“Hi baby!” My mom grinned.
I grinned back, glee taking over the initial confusion.“Hey y’all! Are you having a New Years party without me?”
One of my younger cousins replied, “Sort of, now show us!”
My brows furrowed, “Show you what?”
A string of ‘oh shit’s sounded from mom’s side, further increasing my confusion.
Out of the blue, Dick intervened from behind me, “The fireworks of course!”
A sudden bang! took us all by surprise, and I looked up to see the huge purple fireworks lighting the dark canvas of the sky up. A wide grin split my lips, along with all the other boys as they whooped at the different shades of purple. It happened to be my favorite color. 
I felt the familiar warmth of Jason’s body against my back before hearing or seeing him. The digital clock on the top corner of my phone read 11:55 pm. Not being able to contain my excitement, I subconsciously shoved my phone to Tim, who was beside me, while my family was still on video. I raised a hand to point at the sky.
“Jay look, it’s all so purple!”
And then something happened. Something I wouldn’t even dream of imagining.
Jason’s larger hand rose to the level of mine, which was still pointing up at the sky. He spread my fingers out so that my hand was displayed open. I turned to look at my boyfriend, not quite understanding his intentions.
His eyes were trained on mine, a golden and purple reflection from the fireworks and balcony lights visible on the glossy blue orbs. 
Our eyes stayed on each other’s as I felt something cold graze the top of my ring finger.
In the background I heard Dick harshly whisper, “Tim, the song!”
I wasn’t dumb. I knew what my boyfriend was holding on top of that finger.
Jason’s lips were an inch away from my ear as he spoke clearly, not a hint of hesitation in his voice, “Just say the word, and I’ll put a ring on you.” 
I couldn’t even look at it as I tried to get over the giant bucket of emotions that was thrown over me. Shock, flabbergast, sheer happiness, disbelief, excitement, a rush of adrenaline. My heart threatened to beat the crap out of my chest.
“Jason,” I whispered, my eyes fluttering shut as he put his chin on my shoulder, inches from mine. “What. Are. You. Doing??”
He bit his lip, smiling before cryptically answering. “I love you.”
“I thought you didn’t want to get married?” I questioned again. “Do you think I’m pregnant? Are you doing this cause-?” my voice was breathy.
Jason smirked, his unoccupied arm going round me from behind to rest on the other side of my waist. “No baby, I don’t. The twenty something negative pregnancy sticks on the bathroom trash sort of made it clear that you aren’t pregnant.”
I couldn’t hold back my own grin from his teasing. For the first time, I turned my head to look at our hands. The sky was phenomenal in the background of them, a swirl of blue, red and purple as Damian and Dick continued setting the fireworks off. Tim was holding my phone up to where Jason and I were standing, undoubtedly showing the scene to my family. Now I knew why they were all gathered together to call me.
“You asked my parents?”
Jay rubbed his nose on my cheek, his smart-assery coming to action as he quoted my words from that night two months ago- “Of course, wouldn’t wanna be chased to the end of the earth and be decapitated the crap out of now, would I?”
The boys all had blinding bright and hopeful grins on their faces; even Damian! Alfred’s expression could only be described with one adjective- delight, and Bruce had an odd smile as he saw the straight-out-of-a-movie scene unfold.
I turned my head to the side to look at Jason again, grin faltering to a small smile.
This time nervousness coated his expression and words as he asked once again, “Will you marry me?“
I heard my mom speak through the phone, “Oh come on, stop torturing the poor boy! Answer already!“
Taking a deep breath, I leaned my head even closer to Jason’s. His blue eyes pierced into mine with their intensity, and my lips touched his as I said the word softly. 
“Yes.”

My Ducktales knowledge
I finally admit that I have never watched Ducktales (I know, shame on me) so I ‘ll try to recap the show solely based on memes and posts I see on tumblr
Let’s do this!
It’s the duckverse but they have square heads
They all live together at Scrooge’s gigantic mansion, idk where he keeps his money and there’s a super ripped housekeeper lady
Everyone is afraid of said lady
Donald is a tired, underpaid millenial and a mood who gets dragged around by his hyperactive uncle
There was a point where he got jinxed to speak coherently and the fandom freaked out so I guess that for the rest of the show he has his usual pwaphwaphawahpwapha speech
He raises his three nephews by himself because Della pulled a Dreamworks mascot and somehow accidentally ended up on the moon
There’s also a fourth kid whose name I think is Webby
WHERE. DID. SHE. COME. FROM?? Whose is this kid? Where are her parents? Is she Donald’s illegitimate daughter? Is she another niece? I have no idea! I think they just  f o u n d  her and decided to keep her. Is she’s kinda of a stray taggalong?
She looks cute but there’s a spark in her eye that says she could kill me
Della while on the moon gets adopted by an alien robot lady goddess and has a cool prosthetic. She’s not very mature for an adult but she’s badass
At some point there is a granite ripped centaur with Scrooge’s head? WHAT IS THIS THING? I ‘ve never seen it talk so I guess it’s some kind of supernatural entity who stalks the gang
Goldie is also there! But she is an ex-partner of Scrooge from Klondike and now lives with them in the mansion? For some reason whoever they encounter ends up living with them
They live together and are practically married but they still won’t admit their feelings
In the Klondike days they danced a tango in a lava cave and she may have been or may have been not trying to mug him at the same time
BuT LeT tHe LaDY LeAD
and then she knocked him out with a shovel and disappeared from his life
Goldie has big dick energy
Goldie and Louie are the bad bitches squad built on their mutual love for exploitation
I stopped seeing Hewey and Dewey after some while so I guess that they were suffocated by Louie’s distinct personality
Scrooge is like 200+ years old but looks 80, I wanna know his secret
There’s an ancient god, Beak-Hercules, who falls in love with Donald because he finds his grumpiness and tiny physique adorable. He wants to keep him with him forever to worship at his altar but Donald gets away
Speaking of relationships WHERE IS DAISY? Is she ok? Is she dead?? Is this the reason why Doanld looks so sad all the time? Boy, I don’t trust this series! Give the boy back his fiancee!
Gyro is a hipster and probably a coffee addict but his fashion sense is cool
Magica is also there with a killer eyeshadow and shadow voodoo powers kinda like Dr Facilier from Princess and the Frog. She went a little bit too hard for that No 1 dime
There’s an edgy teenager who does black magic? WHERE DO ALL THESE KIDS COME FROM? Don’t they have parents? Duckburg social services better explain themselves
There are also characters named Launchpad and Drake (?), I know them from another series, they’re a pilot and vigilante respectively
They’re also husbants and have a daughter
But I have no idea how they ‘re related with the gang. I ‘ll take a guess and I’ll say Donald’s pals from the pub he once ended up to at 4am after a Duck Avenger mission
In the latest episodes Donald became a merman and the main guru of an underwater hippie gang
He ran away because his past life was to much but his family like the selfish beings they are go to fetch him because they don’t respect his voyage of self discovery

Okay dude, I gotta know. Who in the OPM universe is a virgin?
I have made a comprehensive guide on the sexual status of all major characters in the OPM universe just for you, anon!
NSFW! —>
Is a virgin and cool about it:
Mumen Rider: just discussed this. He hasn’t actively looked for a partner yet! It’s not that big of a deal to him. He knows how to show love in a million other ways.
King: same thing, really. He’s a little more horny about it though. But still, it’s not that big of a deal and he doesn’t think about it much (someone pls give him a partner).
Superalloy Darkshine: too focused on getting those gains. He could get any date easy though, he’s a real catch.
Pig God: too busy getting a different type of gain.
Iaian: “Romance is frivolous! I have to devote all of my time and energy into practicing my swordsmanship so I shall one day surpass Sensei!
Is a virgin and mad about it:
Metal Knight: actual incel. Probably calls women “femoids”.
Tatsumaki: looks like a twelve year-old. Couldn’t get a date if she tried.
Metal Bat: he’s young, horny levels are through the roof, and porn is easily accessible. What’s a dude to do? We’ve all been there.
Garou: same as Metal Bat except twice as feral.
Death Gatling: He’s too scary-looking and frightens any potential lovers. Nevermind the gigantic scar, he’s got a fucking gun for an arm, man!
Sneck: “I am a catch and the fact that nobody will have sex with me is a crime against humanity!”
Dr. Genus: same as Metal Knight.
Is a virgin because robot:
Drive Knight: does he even have a robo-dick? He’s just out here’s naked all the time with no dick! Dude!
Genos: Too busy trying to attain limitless power than to be horny. Probably got that custom-built robo-dick though, if I’m being honest.
Has an average sex life/has only had sex a few times:
Saitama: pre-workout Saitama was hot as hell and you can’t deny it. He doesn’t actively look for sex though, so he’s only had it the few times he’s been given the opportunity early on in his adult life.
Atomic Samurai: I’ve said this before in a previous hc, but he must have been ridiculously good-looking back in the day and had every opportunity to be a slut. However, he was a lot like Iaian and focused on other things instead. He’s gotten a bit of a late start, but my man’s has been getting it on whenever he can.
Flashy Flash: I’ve said this before in a previous hc, but due to his past and isolation in the Ninja Village, he’s since been focusing on tying up loose ends and has only recently just started to explore his sexuality. He’s had sex like, maybe once or twice lol.
Sonic: same thing as Flashy Flash, but give it time and he’ll become a slut.
Tanktop Master: He’s not too occupied with romance, but had sex when given the opportunity. I mean, he’s got the homies, insane muscles, and a kickass job. What more could he want?
Lightning Max: He’s only had a couple of lovers. He’s in it more for the validation and love and less for the intimacy. A real stand-up guy.
Fubuki: Shes normally too busy managing her herd of like, 30 hooligans. But she’s otherwise got ridiculously high standards for her lovers and still retains an average sex life despite that because, I mean, who could resist?
Bushidrill: same boat as Atomic Samurai just to a lesser degree.
Actual sluts:
Puri-Puri Prisoner: no explanation needed.
Amai Mask: I’m actually not sure about this one because he’s a super beloved pop-star so, theoretically, he’s got to have a pretty active sex life, right?? But then there’s the whole monster thing and I just— I don’t know, to be honest.
Okamaitachi: they’re open about their sexuality! They’re not ashamed! They can get it and they get it when they want to! Good for them!
Watchdog Man: uh
Suiryu: I don’t really need to make an explanation for this one either. It’s canon. He’s got a different bedmate every night. My man is living the dream.
Stinger: he’s a fan-favorite, he’s cute, and he’s young. It was inevitable. He’s more lowkey about it though, and genuinely tries to land a long-lasting relationship but to no avail.
Was a slut back in the day:
Silverfang: his sex life is pretty much dead now but back in his prime?? Basically Suiryu. My mans had a different lover on his arm each night and had the decency to make breakfast for them the morning after. A true legend.
Bomb: same as Silverfang.
Zombieman: pre-HoE Zombieman was a slut. Genus fucked him up though, and probably mangled his libido to shit. However, he’s since been rehabilitating himself and is working on rekindling that old flame.
Thanks for your ask, anon! ❤️ this was fun to write lol.

A question for my favorite Liam!! Could you tell me a bit about the trolls you've designed yourself? What's your process like?
It kinda depends on the design, I suppose! I’ve designed 27 of my 52 active trolls! That’s not counting trolls I don’t have on my select, like Chello, Veroix, Skulux, Orcais, Kithon, Jahspr, etc etc. Of those 27, 6 are what i’d consider my Original Trolls, ones who’ve been around for years. In those six you can look and see a LOT of myself! I’m gunna put this under a readmore but I’m gunna talk, like, specifically about a few trolls: Bruuno + Chowow, then Jawska + current Bruuno! Doing those ones specifically so I can also talk about my tattoo design process and how that’s changed!
I think Chowow technically predates Bruuno! At the time I was making them, I was really young, like 13? 14? idk. I made them both on a whim- Chowow was specifically made to be paired w/ his matesprit (he was originally gunna be an olive!) and Bruuno was made as the troll version of a beloved oc named Bruno. I put a LOT of my anger issues and trauma into Chowow, as a method of coping with them. I also VERY distinctly remember the day I looked at Corpse and said “I think Chow’s trans.”-> Saying that also helped me realize I’M trans lol. When Designing Chow, I specifically wanted dog ear shaped horns that were unique, in a way. And because Chow was based off my dog Gia...i just kinda looked at her liddol triangle ears and decided his get 2 be that way. His design has stayed...relatively the same, he got a hair cut but he’s always worn tank tops + shorts. Bruuno specifically was always the guy Who Had Tattoos. Bruuno’s muse was relatively dead for a very long time, he really only like Revived in 2018/2019? His original design was based off the OG OC- curly hair, thin as a rail, scattered tattoos that had little meaning. As Bruuno got quads, he got tattoos AROUND those quads, their symbols. I wasn’t very good at making my own tattoos so he had some that i based off musician’s (such as the squares that i think the drummer from TOP has?). As I aged, Bruuno’s tattoos changed ALL THE TIME there is NO rhyme or rhythm to them. I only looked at him and really, distinctly organized it all, when I saw another fuchsia with nice organized tatts, I think his name was Nihkos?? shrugs u_u Loved that mans. You can so very cleanly track my progress in tattoo design by looking at all of Bruuno’s sprites! Which leads me toooooo.............
..........Jawska! Jawska is, at his root, a Bruuno clone. I thought to myself “Hm. I want a Bruuno Clone.” And Thus Jawska Was Born. Typically when I come up with a character, I let them like. Mellow for a bit. In my brain. Rattle them around like a marble in a cup. And sometimes, I have a very VERY specific niche I want them to fill. For Jawksa, I wanted an asexual character whose asexuality was important to him, who was attractive but distinctly unfuckable. Jawska has some very important Design Notes - Curly hair, Distinct Nose, Slit eyes, 3 gills+fin prongs, broad shoulders+chest. I also seriously sat down and thought about his tattoos. His tattoos mean JACK shit. His chest piece + arms? NOTHING. there’s negative meaning. He got it because it looked sick. There’s SOME meaning, in some places- the blackout on his arm covers an old tattoo and the rings on his fingers are to hide the singular ring he once had. While working on his tattoo, i looked at other tattoos and specifically thought about the body parts that SUCK to get tattoos on. Collar bones, elbows, sternum. And I specifically aimed to leave those a little blank, using the negative space to give purpose but also keep in line w/ what people would normally not tattoo. His outfit is specifically something that doesn’t SCREAM fuchsia but doesn’t HIDE it. Like he’s got his fins and his eyes but he doesn’t wear any fuchsia- wears more red! That reflects how he sees himself: as someone on the bottom of the food chain. He isn’t special or important. He’s not royalty, he doesn’t deserve to wear his symbol or his color. He wears rose gold instead of gold because again, he’s not royalty he doesn’t “deserve” the gold, but also because the warmer rose gold fit better with his pallet. He wears baggy pants and a loose fitting shirt to hide his frame. As someone who was in an abusive relationship and someone asexual, he doesn’t want to be seen or perceived, he absolutely doesn’t want people to look at him and be attracted to him. Cargo pants hide the shape of his hips + legs, baggy shirt hides that broad chest. The tears + tank leave JUST enough open for people to not NOTICE what he’s doing! So it seems deliberate. There’s a few small, unnoticeable pieces of his design that work like cogs in a little machine. You wouldn’t look at him and see his low self esteem, or that he’s hiding. Which is what he wants! 
And now back to Bruuno, my beloved idiot. I was going to do Jolene (i really only made jolene because an old friend mentioned there not being a lot of butch women, so i wanted to try my hand at it! another design thing I enjoy is finding niches or concepts I don’t see a lot of, and try to make my twist on them. jolene’s in the process of being a lil reworked design wise so i won’t talk abt her.) but I figured I could explain the bits and pieces of Bruuno now. Any design I make, at least now, tends to be very similar to Jawska- there’s small, unnoticeable bits and cogs, or themes that work together hand in hand. I could honestly sit here for hours explaining all of it. Bruuno is the only Monark who has both horns- even though he was designed first, I had all his “relatives” lose that C shaped horn. How they lost it is different and important to them but Bruuno having both horns is a way to show he’s Different from them. In ANY outfit he wears, its typically loose-fitting or a tank top, right? He has a dorsal fin that he doesn’t like having pressed down, but he also enjoys having his figure disformed. Wearing baggy, open shirts give him a more carefree appearance, which is why he does it often when in the limelight. His more casual outfits tend to be cargo shorts, tactical pants, sweats, and tank tops. He really wears long pants because they hide the robotic leg. Despite that, they are all loose fitting, comfortable, but still have an “edge” to them. He has JUST enough piercings in to have that lil edge but not be seen as a cocky highblood! Enough to impress but not be flashy. His robotic arm is VERY clearly a robotic arm, but it isn’t one that looks incredibly flashy. He’s a gigantic fuchsia rockstar with a million tattoos, of course he’s going to stand out, he has no need to be even flashier with a high tech super cool arm or a billion piercings. Another important aspect is his hair! There’s SO much story behind his hair i won’t even go into it. Bruuno has always had curly hair because around the time I made his design, I cut off my super long hair and suddenly I was left with a mess of curls. In my own experience, people likes touching my hair w/o asking, i’d get teased all the time, I’d get a fuck ton of unasked for comments ( “you’d look better with straight hair.” “boys would like you better with straight hair.” “curly hair looks messy.” gags. die. choke on a dick.) and I kinda used Bruuno to vent that out? I put my insecurity and frustration with my hair into Bruuno. I was too damn depressed to straighten my hair, so I decided Bruuno gets to go through that. He primarily wears his hair pulled back now because he’s also too depressed to straighten it. ok now im too tired to finish this. u_u

well shit.
uh. alpha timeline pesterquest routes sure are... something huh?
i will say i’m more convinced than ever that dirk strider is involved in the metaplot of pesterquest. i mean. the fact that you can’t really give jake a happy ending?
idk i just... this doesn’t feel right? i mean, jake seems fairly in-character for a given definition of the word but.... idk it doesn’t sit right with me?
more thoughts under the cut i guess
i guess a lot of my objection to this is that i just. REALLY love dirk a lot and it hurts me when he gets torn down by the narrative like yeah these are all decent valid criticisms of the guy i guess and yeah he can kinda be a dick but... like... it sounds so biased against him and so damn judgmental and i don’t understand?
like, vriska’s introduction is all like “oh she’s a cool friend and we’re going to look at her terrible mom and how awful everything for her and find a way to solve it all!” and our first impression of her is formed from her point of view?
but with dirk we get “he made the killer robot that totally kicked mspar in the ribs and left them to die, and also he’s a terrible friend right out of jake’s own mouth even if he won’t admit he was talking about dirk and mspar actually literally points out what a terrible person dirk seems to be in the narrative”
i’m very overprotective of dirk, and i know that, and i know i’m bad at taking criticism but...
but pesterquest was like... the feel-good “everybody is happy” game up until now? like, we’re gonna get the beta kids all together in one spot, and they’re gonna love and take care of each other.
and we’re going to redeem vriska and have her actually say sorry and see the sadder, darker side of her. and gamzee is going to be a chill friend that we enjoy getting high with. and eridan is going to be kinda not-so-bad if we keep nudging him in the right direction. and we didn’t even bring up equius’s ridiculous hemospectrum bullshit!
and yeah it’s not like everybody who hurt anyone explicitly reconciled with those people but like?
it’s weird that jake doesn’t really have a happy ending.
vriska, gamzee, and even fucking eridan all get happy endings.
hell, zebruh gets a “happy” ending! you know, the most gigantic creepy raging douchelord in the history of friendsim!
but jake gets... a slightly bittersweet ending that feels unresolved, and a entirely bitter ending that’s nothing but frustration, and that doesn’t seem fair either to jake or the player!!
idk i would genuinely appreciate talking to people about this, because something seems really off about both of the alpha kids’ routes, so far?
i’m both looking forward to and deeply dreading dirk’s volume.

To Have A Villain’s Quirk
SEVEN: NOT THAT CLOSE
Tumblr media
Over the rest of February and all of March, their training didn't slow down, but with school not in the way too much, Kaida and Izuku found more time to hang out. It was usually them just walking around town, catching hero versus villain fights, or even going to the local mall, or shopping districts. They even hung out at each others houses once; Kaori loves him. But even after all that time spent together, they both still couldn't bring themselves to tell the other the truths behind their quirks. For all Kaida knew, Izuku was just a really late bloomer. And all that Midoriya knew was that Kaida's eyes changed and she gained tails when her quirk was activated. When April finally rolled around, Kaida couldn't keep her heart from feeling like it was going to burst from her chest. She looked at her new uniform, turning and twisted in the mirror. It felt strange still. She pulled her hair over her shoulder, fiddling with it before pulling it into a half-up-half-down-do. Satisfied, she nodded, nearly jumping out of her skin when her other yelled up to her.
    "Kaida, let's go! You don't want to keep Midoriya waiting, do you?" She rolled her eyes, stuffing her things into her bag, swiping up her shoes as she nearly tumbled down the stairs.
    "I'm coming! I still gotta grab my lun-" She was cut off by Kaori shoving a small lunchbox in her hands, pushing her to the door where Izuku was waiting. He just looked like he was trying not to laugh.
    "Already packed it, now go." Kaida nodded as she quickly slipped on her shoes, giving her mother a quick hug. "And Midoriya, please make sure she doesn't get into too much trouble."
    "Ah, of course, ma'am!"
    "Don't worry, mom, we look out for each other." With quick waves, they took off, weaving through the civilians on the sidewalk. They didn't have to take the train anymore so the quickest commute was for them to walk. Or run, in this case. They were a little behind. Not too long, they came upon the huge building that was UA High School. Continuing to run along the grounds, they sprinted through the building to find their class room, 1-A. From what they heard, they allowed one extra student this year, so one of the classes had an extra student. And they heard that it was their class.
    "Come on! Where is it?" She groaned, skidding to a stop after Midoriya quickly pointed it out. They stared up at the gigantic door, blinking in awe. "This thing is huge..."
    "Think there's giants here?" The boy asked before gulping. "Okay.. The most promising students in the country are waiting behind this door." She watched his little freak out before laughing a little bit. She knew what he was thinking of.
    "Hey, don't worry, maybe they're in a different class!" She grinned, watching him nod.
    "Yeah! Maybe everyone here is nice!" He carefully opened the door, only for them to be met with the same boy from the auditorium lecturing a certain human bomb. They stood in the door way, watching the scene, Kaida blinking as she looked around the class for an empty seat. There was one off to the side while the rest of them seemed to be in a better order. Looks like it was an uneven class after all. She decided she'd take one for the team and take the extra, leaving the green haired boy at the door to take the seat against the wall but closest to the front. She ignored their back and forth as she set her bag down beside her, sitting. She was glad that everyone was too busy watching the two fight for them to notice her walk in, only for them all to notice Midoriya at once. She was sure the poor boy was going into shock. She watched them with a small smile on her face, glancing to the side to see Bakugo catch her.
    "Of course, you'd be here, too. You'll follow that idiot anywhere." He growled at her. She sighed, giving a defeated smile.
    "Good to see you, too, Katsu-"
    "What have I said about calling me that?!"
    "Hey! I remember you!" A different voice called out, cutting off their conversation. A different blond jumped up from his seat with that same big grin on his face. "You're that girl that took down all those robots like it was nothin'! Kai...uh, Kaida, right?"
    "Hah.. uh, yeah.. That was me.." She said weakly, starting to sick into her chair with a pink face. Now, everyone else's eyes were on her. His dumb loud mouth. The class quieted down as they all heard a new voice.
    "If you're just here to make friends then you can pack up your stuff now." All eyes were on the yellow bag of a person outside the door, just lying there, but startling the three by him pretty badly. "Welcome to UA's hero course."
    Kaida stared at the man as he stood up and stepped out of the sleeping bag, confusing the hell out of her, but also feeling pretty grateful for the attention to be gone again. "It took eight seconds before you all shut up. That's not gonna work. Time is precious. Rational students would understand that." He sounded like a dick, but also looked super tired. She didn't blame him for not having patience, but maybe he shouldn't be teaching kids. "Hello, I'm Shouta Aizawa. Your Teacher." Everyone gasped at that, myself included. He just looked... homeless? Not cut out for teaching.. or superheroing?
    "Right, let's get to it. Put these on and head outside." He handed out the P.E. uniforms, Kaida feeling a little disgusted but nevertheless, it had to be done.
                                                                     *
    "What? A Quirk assessment test?" If she was right, that meant they were going to all have to use their quirks to the full extent. She was glad she had coffee this morning before she left, she might have to get some after this too.. She really needed to be careful using it.. She had extremely good control over her quirk but.. She felt like she looked like a monster. The black and red eyes, the scaled tails. Come on, they were called demon tails for a reason. Not to mention, she ate human flesh.  Before she could get too deep into her thoughts, Uraraka chimed in about orientation, which Aizawa immediately shot down. Well, he was right. She didn't care much about orientation anyways, they were here to become heroes, after all.
    "Here at UA, we're not tethered to traditions. That means I get to run my class however I see fit." The look he gave the glace sent shivers down a few of their spines, including Kaida. Just what was he going to do? "You've been taking standardized tests most of your lives. But you never got to use your Quirks in physical exams before." He was right, it's how she's kept her quirk hidden for so long.. "The country's still trying to pretend we're all created equal by not letting those with the most power excel. It's not rational. One day, the Ministry of Education will learn." This man was harsh. But they were high schoolers now, training to be heroes. They needed to learn how the real world worked.
    "Bakugo, you managed to get the most points on the entrance exam." Everyone's attention turned to the boy in question. Of course it was him. "What was your farthest distance throw with a softball when you were in Junior High?"
    "Sixty-seven meters, I think." That sounded about right. She remembered some of their classes together. He could still throw pretty far without using his quirk.
    "Right, try doing it with your Quirk." Bakugo nodded and stepped up, taking the softball from the teacher. "Anything goes, just stay in the circle. Go on. You're wasting our time." She had to hold back a snicker but crossed her arms as she peaked her head around everyone. She chose to keep her spot more towards the back. It was the most she could do to keep from being picked to go first with things. But it slowly became more clear that she would have to participate in every single one of the tests. In front of everyone.
    "Alright, man, you asked for it." Bakugo stretched, sounding cocky as he positioned himself. Her eyes widened as he threw the ball as hard as he could, his quirk causing a rocket like scene. And, did he scream 'die!'? Honestly, scary.
    "All of you need to know your maximum capabilities. It's the most rational way of figuring out your potential as a pro hero." He held up the device in his hand, showing the distance of Bakugo's throw. Kaida's eyes widened. There's no way she'd be able to reach that far. She could use one of her tails, maybe.. They had more strength than her arms did. She heard Kaminari speak up beside her, obviously very intimidated.
    "Whoa, seven hundred and five meters, are you kidding me?!" He leaned back a little to look at the maroonette. "I don't think most of us here would be able to get that far." Kaida shook her head in agreement, eyes wide as everyone started to at least get a little excited. She wasn't looking forward to it.
    "So, this looks fun, huh?" The class quieted down as Aizawa spoke. "You have three years here to become a hero. You think it's all gonna be games and play time? Idiots." Kaida flinched, standing up straighter. "Today you'll compete in eight physical tests to gauge your potential.  Whoever comes in last has none, and will be expelled immediately."
    "Huh?!" Even Kaida joined in, shocked as she took a step forward. He couldn't do that? Could he? They all rightful got in, he couldn't just expel them! She couldn't help but look at her friend near the front. Midoriya was going to be singled out by everyone. She knew how much trouble he had with his quirk, she just hoped he'd be okay.
    "Like I said, I get to decide how this class runs. Understand? If that's a problem, you can head home right now." Kaida clenched her teeth. No way! She made it this far, she wasn't going to let this knock her from the game. It was her time to shine.
    "You can't send one of us home! I mean, we just got here!" Uraraka called out, upset about what was said. "Even if it wasn't the first day, that isn't fair!"
    "Oh, and you think natural disasters are? Or power-hungry villains? Hm? Or catastrophic accidents that wipe out whole cities? No, the world is full of unfairness. It's a hero's job to try to combat that unfairness. If you wanna be a pro, you're gonna have to push yourself to the brink. For the next three years, UA will throw one terrible hardship after another at you. So, go beyond. Plus Ultra-style." He beckoned everyone, and Kaida felt her power flowing through her at his next words. "Show me it's no mistake that you're here."
    He was right. She had to show him, to go beyond, go further than she had before. She needed to be able to push her fears aside. She was going to push her fears aside. "Now then. We're just wasting time by talking. Let the games begin."
                                                                     *
Test 1: 50-meter dash
    Thanks to Kaida's natural speed, she reached: 4.52 seconds.
Test 2: Grip Strength
    Using her rinkaku, away from everyone, she reached: 254.0kg.
Test 3: Standing Long Jump
    Cleared sandbox.
Test 4: Repeated Side Steps
    Didn't trip once. Of course, the little grape boy had an advantage.
Test 5: Ball Throw
    Uraraka went first, throwing it all the way into the atmosphere, so Aizawa had to get a different ball. She did release it but they weren't sure where it landed. Next, was Kaida.
    Kaida didn't look forward to this one, since she was standing in front of everyone. She held the softball in her hands, closing her eyes. Did she really want to do this? Yes, she needed to. So, ignoring her trembling body, she released the one tail, tossing the softball up and catching it with the appendage. She took a small step back, ready to brace herself for the force that she was going to unleash. She let it lash out, throwing the ball a good distance. The tail dissolved as she watched it hit the ground.
    "Five hundred and sixteen point seven meters. Good." She nodded and walked away, being greeted by Kaminari and Midoriya.
    "Wow, that was amazing! I don't think I've really seen you use your quirk like that, Kai!" Izuku grinned at the girl while Denki slung his arm around her.
    "Really? You should've seen her during the exams. She was super fast, and strong!"
    "I would've loved to see you in action-"
    "Midoriya, it's your turn, come on." Midoriya swung his head around to look at their teacher, nodding quickly and running to the circle after taking the ball from Aizawa. He glanced at Kaida, who gave him a thumbs up. She watched him nod and turn away, her feeling like a proud big sister. Of course, there was still that unnatural weight on her shoulder. So, while Midoriya was figuring out what he was going to do, Kaida picked the boys hand off of her shoulder and dropped it back by his side, raising a brow at the blond.
    "What? I thought we were close?" Denki chuckled, raising his brows back as he rested a hand on his hip. He tilted his head closer to hers and she quickly, but gently, shoved him a few feet away.
    "Not that close." She could hear him pouting as she turned her attention back to Aizawa basically being an asshole to the poor boy up at the plate. Calling her best friend a liability and calling him out.
    "Sorry Midoriya. With your power, there's no way you can become a hero." Kaida rose her hands to her mouth. That was uncalled for.. He shouldn't have brought him down like that, he could've been a little easier about it. Aizawa didn't know what Midoriya had to go through to get here. "I've returned your impractical Quirk. Take your final throw. Hurry and get it over with."
    Kaida watched her best friend look so beaten down, her taking a small step forward. She wanted to comfort him, she wanted to tell Aizawa off, she was angry. And Bakugo wasn't helping. She could see the boys mouth moving, he was talking to himself. Probably trying to figure out the best course of action. She believed in him, she was just worried he was going to hurt himself. She could see the look on his face. He was going to do something. So, when he finally threw the ball, she realized what he was doing, a big smile coming to her face. He broke his finger, but it was enough to throw the ball. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, her grin never going away as he turned to look at their teacher.
    "Mr. Aizawa. You see? I'm still standing." He had the same grin on his face. The one he wore when he proved someone wrong, when he was doing his best.
    "Good job, Izu!" Kaida shouted, pumping her fist in the air. He had come such a long way from when they both started. He looked at the girl, smirking with tears in his eyes.

Funtime Freddy x reader -Chapter 1 - The encounter
Note: This is my first Reader x Fanfiction. I got huge help from my beloved Girlfrien @thefredricus to correct my bad writing! She is such a huge help!
2nd part: https://creeperchild.tumblr.com/post/619663923427328000/funtime-freddy-x-reader-chapter-2-danger
Enjoy the reading and tell me what you think!
(y/n) = your name
(l/n) = last name
(y/a) = your age
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
You take a deep breath. This is your first day in the business called "Circus Baby's Pizza World". This place is pretty scary for you since you hate mannequins and robots.
You applied to the job WITHOUT knowing that they had animatronics in their company.
'How stupid am I?' you think to yourself as you step into the cold abyss of the building. Only a light on the ceiling flickers on your way to the elevator. You walk slowly towards it while staring fascinated at the walls to your right and left.
The dim light reveals drawings of children, how they play games, eat pizza or cake, or with... "Animatronics." slips out of your mouth while exhaling and a shiver runs down your spine. With shaking legs, you enter the small room that immediately closes the doors on you and traps you inside of it. You feel the movement of the elevator and a tablet pops up in front of you. It introduces itself as HandUnit. The yellow tablet speaks once again:"Please enter your name as seen above the keypad.
This cannot be changed later so please be careful." With those words a keyboard appears on the screen. You let out a sigh and closed your eyes for a moment.
Your name is (y/n). You are a (y/a) year old girl that really needs money after you graduated school. You wanted to move out and have your own life. As well with a new partner, since you are single. Let's just say your ex... was kind of a dick to you.
"Asshole..." parts your lips in a dying voice as you clench your fists together.
A voice snaps you out of your dreadful thoughts: "It seems that you had some trouble with the keypad. I see what you were trying to type, and I will auto-correct it for you. One moment. Welcome: Eggs Benedict."
You blink in confusion as the elevator stops at your destination. A cheerful music appears and fills the room instead of the silence. You hesitate as the HandUnit gives you the order to open the door of the elevator. The doors snap open and  give you a heart attack. It reveals a lot of yellow tape with the words "DANGER" written on them, taped all over the exit of this god damn lift to hell. You suck air through your teeth and slowly crouch under the tape and towards the dark and small vent that offers you an entrance to your working place. It is barely enough space as you squeeze trough.
The air is hot and thick, and the vent seems to have no end. All of a sudden
HandUnit speaks again, way louder than in the elevator. You jump up, hitting your head on the vent. "ARGH!"
Covering the back of your head while mumbling swearwords, you listen to the loud and clear voice: "Allow me to fill this somewhat frightening silence with some light- hearted banter. Due to the massive success and even more-so the unfortunate closing of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, it was clear that the stage was set – no pun intended – for another contender in children’s entertainment. Unlike most entertainment venues, our robotic entertainers are rented out for private parties during the day, and it’s your job to get the robots back in proper working order before the following morning."
YOU NEED TO DO WHAT!? Your jaw drops as you hear what the voice says.
"That was NOT what the advertisement said!" you hiss slightly while checking if your head bleeds.
Finally. You enter the room where you are supposed to work. Slowly standing up, you notice you got a huge headache from the hit on your head. Great! Blinking and huffing, you examine the room that is finally exposed to you. Once more a shiver crawls up and you shudder. The room is flooded in a dirty green color. Monitors decorate the room, along with masks and small robots. Your body flinches as your eye catches the sight of them, holding your breath. Beside the creepy bullshit that you see are some desks, a clock, a fan and other small details that gives the room more character.
You try to calm down as the familiar voice is heard again: "You are now in the Primary Control Module. It’s actually a crawlspace between the two front showrooms. Now, let's get started with your daily tasks. View the window to your left. This is the Ballora Gallery Party Room and Dance Studio, encouraging kids to get fit and enjoy pizza. Let’s turn on the light and see if Ballora is on stage. Press the blue button on the elevated keypad to your left."
A keypad on your left lights up in two colors. Blue and red. The blue button has a noticeable light showing. You press it and a light shines outside on a spot with nothing else to be seen. "Uh-oh, it looks like Ballora doesn’t feel like dancing. Let’s give her some motivation. Press the red button now to administer a controlled shock. Maybe that will put a spring back in her step."
'Controlled shock? What the fuck is wrong with you guys?' You bite your lip as you eye the red button with the lightning bolt symbol. You may be scared of robots but you felt sympathy as well for them at that point. Either way it was your job and you didn't want to get fired already on the first day. A frown appears as you press the button quickly. A loud shock was to be heard and all of a sudden the lights go out.
Sitting in darkness some noises can be heard. Terrified as you are, you hold yourself to a wall in panic. "It seems that the power system cannot be restarted automatically. You will need to restart the power system manually.", the casual voice said.
All of a sudden you hear noises from the right vent of the room. The sound of metal hitting the vent grows closer, as well as your panic. Adrenaline shoots into your blood and your first thought is to crawl in the opposite vent towards Ballora's Gallery. Crawling through as quick as possible, you hold your tears back. You feel the vent ends here, but sadly enough not the darkness. The metal noise is getting even closer. Your only thought is 'run'.
You took a huge sprint into the unknown darkness as you follow the only navigation point you have. A bright light peeking through the door crack far ahead of you.
'Shit, shit, SHIT!' is the one thought that haunts your mind.
But before you reach the self-picked safe spot, something grabs your ankle and pulls you back into the dark void you try to escape from. You fall on your side and get violently dragged away. A small spark of a broken machine reveals the face of the attacker. You gasp as you see the young ballerina robot, crawling along the ground like a spider, its posture being impossible for a human. You only spit out the word:" MONSTER!" Fighting for your life, you try to kick the animatronic in its face and struggle and wiggle out of her grip. Your foot slips out of your shoe and as well out of her steel grasp. You take the chance and sprint towards the only lit room in this hellish place. You slam the door before the abomination reaches it, violently knocking and banging against the door. You press yourself against the door and slip down to end up curling into a ball, hiding your face into your legs. Tears drip down and sobs can be heard from your exhausted body. "I see you over there in the dark! C~Come on out!", a shrieking voice chirps. You lift your head and face a gigantic animatronic bear stepping closer towards you. Immediately you crawl away from him as far as possible. You press your body against the wall and eye the creature in front of you. The robotic bear has the main color of white and some parts with pink and purple. He owns a black hat and bowtie. His chest has a speaker and two buttons on it. His right hand wears a blue bunny puppet. A bowtie adorns the neck of the small robot as well, but in red. In his left hand he holds a microphone. One step after another he gets closer and grabs your wrist with his cold hand, dropping his microphone for the action. Lifting you up in the air by your wrist was no problem for him. A moan of pain escapes your throat as you in panic try to get slip out of his hand:" L-Let me go!". you cry out. The animatronic chuckle deep and amused:" W~why should I do that?" Now you can’t keep it back and start to cry in front of him. The puppet point at you as it speaks in its high-pitched voice, peeking at the bear: "Don't you see? The birthday boy is crying!" The big robot gasps dramatically and drops you harshly on the floor. He then turns away with his puppet and whispers to it. You rub your butt and you try to hold in the pain to not getting his attention again. You notice the thick tubes, dangling from the ceiling down the ground and crawl towards them, hiding between them while the two are still discussing. The both of them turn back around just to realise that you aren't there anymore. "B~Birthday b~o~oy? Where aaaaare you? ", he let out of his rather insane chuckle. You rub your wrist that is slightly injured by the freaky bear. A snarling could be heard: "Bonbon! We couldn't have lost him THAT EASY!" The bunny hissed in defence: "Why me? YOU are the one who scared them!" The bear lets out a sigh:"You~u are right... please find him!"
With those words the bunny separates himself from the stub of an arm and with a loud thump it falls to the ground. The puppet was laying for a second on the ground and didn't move an inch. "Is..he dead..?", you whisper to yourself as the motionless puppet lies close to you. Suddenly the head lifts up and spies you already in your hiding spot: "FOUND YOU!" You decide to leave your hiding spot and run out as the 'small' robot crawls towards you and tries to grab you. You try to open the door, but the bear is one step ahead of you and slams it closed with his free paw. Frozen in shock, the legless puppet reaches your legs and clings onto you as if his life depends on it. The bear uses his huge paw and grabs your face to pull it closer to his own. He eyes you closely in every angle possible. Your tear-filled face wasn't the most appealing at that moment, but why is he so focused? He opens his mouth, slightly and slowly. 'Is that my end? eaten by a robot?' is one of many thoughts and fears that goes through your body. "BONBON, THAT IS NOT A BOY! IT'S A BIRTHDAY GIRL!", he yells at the bunny, surprised. You aren’t sure if it's out of anger or happiness. The mechanic bear lets your head go, as well as the puppet your legs. Your fear in your face and the backing off signalises the big robot to not step closer. His ear drops slightly in shame and sadness as he speaks again:" I~I'm sorry that I might hurt you...!" He picks up the puppet and places it on his right arm again:" My name is Funt~time Freddy and this is Bonbon!", he gestures to the puppet. The puppet smiles and waves his arm from side to side: "Hello~!" Speechless as you are, you eye the named robot and can’t say a word. Funtime Freddy steps close and tries to grab your shoulder gently to get your attention. You flinch by the touch and tug your shoulder away from his hand. He pulls it back to his body and opens his mouth to speak. Before he can say something you drop on your knees and start to cry. Covering your face with your hands to hide it and not see him anymore, you let out a sob. Funtime kneeled down on one knee and huffed, slightly frustrated. "Everything is gonna be o-kay..!", speaks the bunny in a soft voice. You feel how he tries to rub your back in sympathy. You yank your elbow into Bonbon's face and try to get as much space between you and the animatronic as possible. Bonbon holds his nose in pain and says something muffled, probably inappropriate. Funtime Freddy is going to say something, but Bonbon interrupts him: "I-I'm fine! Don't you worry!", while still holding his noise and forcing a smile. After a while of silence, you slowly lift your head up from your knees and peek over to Funtime Freddy. He stares at you in silence and blocks the door by sitting in front of it, taking away the only way to escape. 'DAMNIT!' you think as you lay your head down again in silence. You notice that your body goes slowly limp, falling for the tiredness that overtook it. Your vision goes blurry and all over sudden black. You slowly gain your consciousness back as you feel something around you. It is fluffy and light, but you don’t bother to open your eyes to see it. Finally you remember in what situation you are in and snap open your eyes, realising a blanked was wrapped around you. Blinking in confusion you check if Funtime Freddy is still on the same spot: 'YEP! There he is...and still blocking the door!' You sigh in disappointment and eye him slightly more as your vision becomes more clear. He isn’t staring at you anymore. His head is hanging slightly down and his eyes are shut, while Bonbon is laying next to him. Both don’t move at all. Apparently they are in 'sleeping mode' or something. A slight smile crosses your lips before the harsh reality crashes down on you once more. You can't just move a 200 pound robot without waking him up or breaking your own back!! You hold the blanket close to you and curl up more in it. You wonder where this blanket came from or who tucked you in it. The only person who crosses your mind is the pink maniac in front you. You shake your head in disgust by the thought of him getting closer to you. You lift your arm to see what time it was.
2:48 am.
You wait in your new earned comfort blanket for the time to pass by. After half an hour it gets colder for some reason. You hide more and more in the fluffy blanket and bite your teeth together as you shake. You can’t help but whimper from the biting pain of the cold, reaching under the blanket.
The bear’s ear twitches and you can swear he was smiling for a split second before a deep and low humming sound comes from his chest. You opened your tired eyes slightly as the sound continues to hum.
A warm wave of slight heat hits you and you start getting curious. Crawling closer but holding back your whimper, you feel more warmth coming from him. The urge not to die by freezing forces you to get closer to the sleeping bear. You ignore your fear completely now.
Your fingers touches his chest lightly, the source of the sound, and you notice he doesn't feel cold anymore. He must have a heater inside of his system. Like in a trance you cling to the lifesaving warmth and lay against his chest.
Suddenly the two robotic arms of the bear snap around you and hold you in a firm grasp. You look up in fear. The bear glares down at you with a smile. You want to scream as the thought comes through that the heater is a trap. Tears drip down as you stare at him in shock. Not even a dying sound escapes your throat.
Before you can start sobbing he gently presses his index finger against your lips."shhhhh... You don't want to wake up Bonbon", he whispers gently as he looks to his beloved puppet friend, who is sleeping quite comfortably against his leg. You gulp and look up to him. He smiles gently and pulls you closer to himself. You squeak in surprise as he presses you closer to his chest.
You want to move, but you can’t. All what you could do is stare in silence. Funtime Freddy starts to hum a tune of your childhood memories while rocking slowly back and forth with you. Oddly enough, it soothes you and before you realised you became, once more, a victim of your tiredness.
You slowly open your eyes and stretch a bit. You slept really well. Looking up to Freddy, who was apparently already awake, examine something. Like a small card of plastic, holding it up towards the light to read it better.
He hasn’t noticed that you are awake and mumbles a bit:" Aha.. (y/n) (l/n) ... (y/a) years old... interesting.", he spoke with a big, goofy smile on his lips. WAIT A SEC-
You look around and you notice your purse next to him, open wide. You blush slightly as you remember it was in your back pocket of your jeans. 'Did he really look through my pockets while I slept?!'
You snap back out of your thoughts and stare Freddy down, till he notices you. He stares back with eyes open in surprise and the embarrassment of getting caught red handed.
He quickly hides the card behind the back of his metal body and speaks with a shaky voice:" O-oh, g~good morning (y/n)-". He realised he gave away the hint that he really stole your ID!
You stand up and immediately try to reach behind his back and snatch the card out of his hand. In response he lifts his left hand up in the air in hope you don't get the card, while still sitting on the ground, getting a bit nervous while blushing in embarrassment.
You try your best to reach for it, but he bends in a weird direction to make it harder for you. You try your hardest to get your personal information back as you accidentally push the bear over and fall on top of him.
One step closer to your goal!
You bend forward to get it.
Freddy squirms and tries to hold you away with his stump and flops on his belly and lets out exhausting noises: "g-get off of
me!" He squeaks more as your climb over his back to get back what belongs to you.
Your fighting stops as you hear knocking on the door and it opens right after. The small, legless bunny peeks in and stays quiet for a while before giggling: "What are you both doing here?" He looks amused. Both of you look at him, then to each other and again back to Bonbon.
You both quickly get off of each other and Freddy blushes worse than before and looks away.
"Aaaaanyways...", the puppet continues, rolling his eyes:" I got what you wanted, Freddy!" Bonbon nudges the door open with his tiny paw and pulls in a plate with some slices of pizza.
By the sight of it your stomach growls and you can’t keep your eyes away from it, since you didn't eat for over 12 hours now.
"Oh boy, she sure looks hungry!", chirps the blue one. Freddy picks him up and puts him back as his 'right hand' and hands you the plate with the delightfully smelling pizza:" Here you g~go! Knock yourself out!" You can’t help but smile as you sit down to give your attention to the greasy slices.
Bonbon takes the opportunity and whispers to Freddy: "You like her, don't you Freddy?" The bear looks quickly away as his cheeks warm up. Looking back at Bonbon with the most helpless glare gives him the clear answer. The Bunny raises and lowers his eyelids as a human would wiggle his eyebrows and smiles wide, signifying that he knows.
"BONBON!" shouts Freddy in embarrassment and scare you half to death. You hold your plate tight to you as you lower your head in fear. Funtime Freddy frowns and stutter even more than before, a bit ashamed of himself: "I-I-I'm sorry that I scared you (y/n)...just keep eating!" A nervous chuckle comes from him before he turns away again.
"If you don't tell her tonight that you like her, I will!", Bonbon says with the biggest smile on his face. Funtime Freddy growls at Bon: "Bonbon! You can't jus-"
He sighs and looks slightly to you:"F~fine..." A slight blush creeps up on his face. The small animatronic enjoys that Freddy is a mess and covers his snout with his tiny paws to let out a giggle. "Don't worry, you are not the only one who likes her!", his little friend speaks as he pats Freddy's back. Freddy eyes him as he raises an eyebrow. The bunny shrugs it off as he say:" She seems to be nice!"
All of a sudden Bonbon gasps and turns around to get your attention: "Hey (y/n)! How about you meet our friends! I bet they will be excited to see you!"
"What friends?", you spit out while eating the last bites of your pizza. He wiggles a bit and throws his arms up in the air in excitement: "Funtime Foxy, Ballora and Circus Baby of course! And others as well!" You swallow and look a bit oddly at them. Freddy shakes his head in agreement quickly and smiles a bit crooked and awkward.
He waddles towards you and offers you a paw to help you up. Slowly but unsurely you give him your hand and he pulls you up. You aren’t sure if you should trust him.
But after all what he did for you felt more relaxed around him and Bonbon. You could even say...enjoying his presence.
You hold his paw tightly as he opens the door and walks with you into the darkness.

Can i rant and ask questions about the entire KH3 finale?
--Wut
--Okay, sorry, seriously: Kairi spent all this time training with a keyblade, right? And i remember her being really gung-ho and up for holding her own in KH2. So in this one... she just has to be rescued again over and over? Um. Yay, her?
--And Riku--right--Riku was just as much a friend to her as Sora and obsessed over helping her in KH1. Sora meanwhile spent every game going “RIKU!” in various outbursts of emotion. (Sora being happy to see Kairi yet falling to his knees the moment he sees Riku again will forever be a hilarious meme to me.) Yet Kairi shares a papou fruit with Sora and neither one is like “maybe i should share with Riku who’s like 20ft down the beach rn.” 
--I mean, at the end Sora wants to find Kairi (who i thought was turned to glass and shattered but apparently not?) and Riku just shrugs. Wut wut?
--This has nothing to do with anything but talking about Riku reminds me of Mickey, whose VA for this was somehow fine in Epic Mickey but horribly off pitch here i cringed so much. I miss you, Wayne Allwine.
--Alright, new topic: Lea is really weak. No, sorry, actual topic: Why does he suddenly care so much about Saix? Axel did not give two shits. The whole Org could burn in a fire for all he cared. Lea apparently was friends with him enough to cry over him?? News to us!
--Time Out to say i really just Do Not Care about everyone getting keyblades. Lea sucks at it anyway and his is a godawful design. Everything from the coat to the fire and chakram say “Axel” as if everything before hasn’t told us the Person and the Nobody are different entities. But the only thing different is how lame this person is. I get it, Square, you’re banking on a fan fave and trying to have things both ways. But...
--Wasn’t it also told to us Nobodies can grow their own hearts? That’s how Roxas could get his own body there. Didn’t Axel grow a heart? So... He has to be stuck inside a dollar store version of himself? Ouch.
--Lea was also friends with Ventus? Enough that Saix implied Axel got tattoos so he wouldn’t have to cry over a lost friend (unless that was something else i misunderstood). And it’s implied his “got it memorized” catchphrase (which i am so sick of by now omg he never even said it this much in KH2 and Lea isn’t even HIM) came from thinking his good friends just would leave and forget about him. But Ventus doesn’t get tears? Or a hug? Okay.
--Roxas all of a sudden cares (yay, but also weird, and just as suddenly doesn’t gaf about Namine) and we get a reunion but it’s very....awkward. First of all the add-on convoluted clone-thing Xion is thrown in, but also everyone is crying like the voice actors AND animators know it’s forced and can’t bring themselves to take it seriously, then there’s a poorly animated 3-way-hug that’s more new-football-player-teammates-in-their-first-huddle than anything.
--No one pronounces Vanitas correctly and i want to scream every time. They say “vuhNEEtus” or something and nooooooo stoppppp
--Is it me or are “Empty Vessels” creepy as shit? Stop showing me beige manikins on the floor like a dead body.
--Okay, so wtf was it Larxene, Marluxia and Demyx were supposed to be doing different than the others? That cutscene with the meeting on natural rock structures in a desert? Did they just pad to talk about nothing??
--Off of that: WHY was Vexen talking to Demyx about sabotaging or backstabbing, then the only thing they did was bring a Vessel to Ienzo?! Who tf cared? No one cared! Every single one of Xehanort’s extra pubic hairs could have seen this in front of them and said whatevs.
--(Was i supposed to know who that plushie was in Final World? Ventus did?)
--Did they forget to explain why 1)Sora got a mental cutscene of the words “Do you seek our liege?” when he talked about Roxas in Twilight Town, and 2)Haynor has X’s all over him and a Nobody protected him? Anyone?
--There’s so many KH chars Square either refuses to let go of or makes up for no reason that FF chars will never be seen again. After almost 20yrs of vague hope, that makes me one sad Turk whore. 
--Quick sidetrack to ask why Hiro would make both Baymax’s fighters when he could have made the returned first robot body a healthcare companion for some person in need like Tadashi intended? They’re not Big Hero 7, ya know?
--The Caribbean world for PotC3 was too long, too boring, and every ship handles worse than my dad’s old gigantic 80′s Oldsmobile. (potc only had one movie i can’t hear you lalalala)
--But Ansem already tried to open Kingdom Hearts in 1 and it just revealed a bunch of light (and an actual door). When did that change? Why is it now an actual giant heart emoji that will reset the world like we’re Wolf’s Rain?
--You’re telling me after all these years and all this work, Mark Hamill just shows up to tell Xehanort he’s acting like a dick and he stops? ...Fair.
--Did Yen Sid die in the sea of heartless or...? Cuz if he was the one training Kairi and Lea, that doesn’t surprise me.
--They’re gonna end it like that, huh? Xigbar was really some big bad, backseat time traveler, original mentor to the Keyblade Furries this whole time? Maleficent and Pete’s mission could have been introduced and ended in that one end cutscene instead of wasteful moments throughout the game? This black box contains “hope” but it’s NOT Pandora’s Box? istg if they continue this in another side portable or mobile game with more retcons and redundant additions...
--Secret Ending: GDI game within a game Inception 20 dreams deep full blown art school student wetdream bs
--TIL there will be both free and paid DLC. Because of course there will.
GAMEPLAY:
--”When i get hit i want to be stuck in a 5 second animation or have no option to escape/block the entire time i’m repeatedly pelted,” said no one ever.
--I appreciate the extra content and fight moves/attractions, but omg if i’m not in a fight why do the fighting options not go away? Do you know how many times i went to open a chest or finish a time sensitive mini-game only for the triangle button to make a fuckin carousel or gd Buzz Lightyear arcade ride pop up uselessly instead???? WHY. YOU HAD 14 YEARS TO CODE.
--So many useless cutscenes! Why! Especially right at the end fights when they lure me in, i swing a couple times (yay, gameplay) then immediately into another cutscene! Each fight! FINISH YOUR CUTSCENE IN ONE SHOT THEN LET ME BUTTONMASH YOUR GAME, SQUARE! YOU ALREADY MAKE MOVIES TOO!

Good Stuff’s Best of 2017
WARNING: I’d like to thank everybody who was here for me when times were low. Thank you, take care out there, and enjoy.
Cartoons; the one thing that I will continuously watch until I go blind. 2017 was an emotional handful and an exhausting trudge, can’t deny that, and I’m counting down the best cartoons/animations I’ve seen and loved this year in no particular order. Only two rules, no sneak previews of future projects (sorry to Unikitty and Hideo Kojima). Here we go....
10. HANAZUKI: FULL OF TREASURES
Tumblr media
This was a sleeper hit tbh. The fact all the episodes were free on Youtube blew my mind, but having a well structured story with a lovely cold space color palette, actually relatable characters, and a sinister undertones below its tender, colorful charm to be as a nice headliner to when Friendship is Magic came back in spring. It was an inviting start for the year, and with the guy behind Motorcity and Superjail taking the helm and having two more seasons being produced, Hanazuki is something I find is in good hands come 2018.
9. LITTLE WITCH ACADEMIA
Tumblr media
Four long years. I waited FOUR long goddamn years...and fuck me was it worth it. A spectacle is what I can call Little Witch Academia. Almost every episode dazzled me with its stage made bravado and confidence that always made me say, “Okay. Let’s make it til’ the next week”. Even when things got serious, LWA knew how to have fun and make the most of its concept. There is a sense of predictability sometimes, but the series would still throw you some good curve balls to never lose your interest. What did lose my interest was Netflix’s sorry excuse of a dub. The movies: fine. But Netflix, try that again, with any other anime, and I will rip your nuts off.
8. Now I might be cheating here since it’s not a cartoon, but shit it might as well have been
CUPHEAD
Tumblr media
The effort that went into this is phenomenal, beyond the many other games of the year no doubt. While not everything is animated, I could tell they were cutting corners in some areas, the frame BY frame animated enemies, bosses, and effects made this one of the most visually colorful and alive games to date, next to Mario Odyssey. Not only was this game a frustrating yet joyous romp to start and finish, but the music and art flawlessly channeled the essence of a time where the word “cartoon” was only starting to make good progress. My favorite character would have to be Satan King Dice, whom is an animated homage to great musician and composer Cab Calloway. His stache, his clothing, even his Cheshire grin captured the cool, jazzy vibe Calloway always provided in his performances. He and his fight was the highlight of Cuphead for me and I hope this game, if a sequel isn’t possible, is well remembered for its unexpected excellence in how a video game can look.
7. CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS/L-EGGO BATMAN
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Faithful is what I can describe these two. Captain Underpants was just an awesome book to elementary schooler me, but to see a well animated, well written movie about a dude in his underwear was nothing short of a simple yet powerful masterpiece. As for Batman, this is one of the three truest DC and Batman movies around this time, and it has a gay undertone with Batman and the Joker’s relationship (how can you not pull that off, Suicide Squad?). While not a big fan of lego myself, The Lego Movie put my faith WB making another one equally as good, and they did not disappoint. It’s a shame it got snubbed at the Golden Globes, it deserves the award more than the Boss Baby. Plus it had a Superman that didn’t bore me while having a terrible CGI lip job that’s only made worse by his two way dick nose....
Tumblr media
Justice League costed 300,000,000 dollars.............
6. DANGER & EGGS
Tumblr media
To me, this series felt like one of the few steps forward the world took to make the LGBT+ community feel more welcome and inspired in public outlets; a small step, but progressive none the less. It is a colorful and lively action comedy, a first to be created by a transgender person, where you can see a non-binary character, a pride fest, diverse background characters of orientation and ethnicity, and it feels like they are a part of the world and not footnotes that states that you should respect queer, bi, ace, and so on based on a say so. It’s a show don’t tell type of series and it brightened my summer before I had to remind myself that college exists and is expecting me.
5. TANGLED: THE SERIES
Tumblr media
*ring ring* “Hello?” Ye, Disney? How fucking dare you?
My hype for this was undoubtful. I love Tangled the movie, I consider it one of my favorite 2010 disney flics beside Wreck it Ralph and Moana. And when the art style was up for a preview for this (?), I just sat and waited until it finally premiered and damn. I never stopped loving it, but it is until episode 16 where the series starts to hit high note after high note with the direction it’s going for the story. The fact that this all takes place not long after the movie makes the thought where Eugene and Rapunzel finally get married feels all the more earned. It’s working its way to a happily ever after, I adore this show, and this makes me appreciate Frozen a bit more for how far that’s fallen in the world after its one year of fame. Seriously, Gigantic had to get chopped, but Olaf can still live? Give me a break, Disney.
“Sir, I understand your enthusiasm....but this is Domino’s.” Then I will have the 5.99 large with Salchicha and pepperoncini with a liter sprite on delivery.
4. MADE IN ABYSS
Tumblr media
This was so beautiful, so awesome, and much better than...
Tumblr media
I wasted my life and I cannot say that I will ever reclaim that time proactively again the Anime
Made in Abyss is like Hunter x Hunter except Gon’s more booksmart and Kilua’s a timid robot. The bond between Riko and Reg was a fucking dynamic and heartfelt where Riko’s helps build Reg up and Reg kept Riko and himself safe with his bodily arsenal. That and this series has the best world building where they not only give the low down on almost everything about the titular abyss, but the atmospheric environments and the designs of the inhabiting creatures made this a unique world to want to explore myself. It knew what to show, and knew what to share. When things got serious, I actually tensed up at the thought of shit truly going down; they knew how to soften the terror while maniacally instill fear in us for the safety of the traveling kids. I want to recommend this link to an awesome breakdown of how great Made in Abyss was. However, as it seems that a season two has gone down the abyss as well, and I’m afraid it can’t come back up.
3. LET’S BE HEROES!!
Tumblr media
Is it safe to call this the M.U.G.E.N. of cartoons? Just an all up mashup of stuff I love in a Saturday morning? Campy, action, and laid back, this is something I can be sober or grab some kush and I would be enjoy the show just the same. They even have references you might not have ever heard of, but might like the search. OK KO’s a popcorn cartoon, it’s not for everybody, but it established itself well into the modern CN era when Adventure Time finally has to move on. 
2. SAMURAI JACK
Tumblr media
Getting this out of the way: episode 6 toiled the final season of Samurai Jack for me. Not gonna go into detail, but if that episode was remade, I would have been more satisfied looking back. However, that does not stop me from saying this is how a revival should be, this is how a reboot should work, THIS is how you can bring nostalgia back. Samurai Jack was great back then, but this season, wrapping up the loose plight of our boy trying to get back to the past and defeat the demon Aku, was satisfactory to many fans. Even those who’ve never heard or remember Jack could just enjoy this as a dynamic mini-series; it gives you context of what happened before without having to recap the original plot of it. For non fans, it’s mostly about an ageless samurai, longing to return to his own time, stuck in the future for over 50 years to the point of losing his honor and his mind. It’s a binge worthy 10 episode season, originally intended to be a movie, and aside from polar opinionated finale, this made Samurai Jack feel great to love again.
1. TRUE AND THE RAINBOW KINGDOM
Tumblr media
This is a personal choice from me because 2017 was an honest to god terrible year for me; nothing but turmoil, season to season, and the struggle to cope with that despair in a way I felt actually could help. However, this small series here boosted my spirits because even with it being a show for little kids that I originally wanted to watch as a joke, the competent, enthusiastic spirit it had just moved me in a way that cartoons that I love for eons could only try to do on a whim. It’s not the best made cartoon, it’s not something I sincerely recommend to you all, but it helped me realize that the best thing about life is finding and seeking things that don’t just distract you from the hard and testing times reality puts on you, but gives you a moment of honest bliss and happiness that can influence your outlook on looking forward to better things because things like this, cartoons like this, CAN make you feel better. 
*sniff* Which is why, the actual cartoon of the year....
1. is STEVEN U., BABY!
Tumblr media
Just kidding, guys! You will NEVER win, Steven!
Tumblr media
TEEN TITANS GO! WINS IT AGAIN, BABYYYY! ONCE AGAIN BABY (i don’t even like it no more...), YOUR NEW FAVORITE SHOW (i don’t even fucking like it no...) RISES TO THE TO-
But Steven Universe in Space, though. That’s when it’ll be great again.

✴✴✴✴ for any OC and any topic!
Sorry that you waited so long, but here goes:
* Wolfboy is at a whopping 9 feet tall. (He’s a toll boi!)
* Both Shaman the third and the second are 5'6
* When I first drew Shaman, she was a giant winged werewolf with gray fur, red eyes, and white stripes. She was 7 feet tall and had a blue gem in her chest. Her stripes resembled the ones on Shaman the Second, which meant she was originally the protagonist. I also accidently threw away that pic because I felt it was ugly. My biggest mistake in my life so far.
* Originally Wolfboy was made to be evil or least a “bad boy” of some kind. Which is why his eye colors is switched.
* Thorax and Kazul are minotaur brothers that are both 50 feet tall. Despite Kazul being older, Thorax came first into the story. He was based on the wild imagination I had one night when I mistaken the mirror down a hallway as a minotaur. Kazul came later after I read Searching for Dragons.
* Originally the Shamans were celestial witches and casted spells for attacks. I scrapped the idea because someone who is made up of space and can control when a new universe is needed to be made or destroyed that casts mere spells sounded silly. But the last name witch stayed
* Shaman the Second is pansexual and panromatic.
* Shaman the Third is asexual and aromantic. She is also demiagender.
* Wolfboy is agender in a literal sense. There’s no dick or vagina down there my dude. Just a tuft of fur. But since he is of Shaman’s race, he can form some.
* There was once a character by the name of Lycan. He was a three headed nych that was blue with black tiger like stripes. He was treated as circus animal by the Corrupted. Shaman saved him and kept him at her planet. He can walk upright on his hind legs for some period of time and is able to talk. After sometime, he gained a form from falling in lava in hell(?) and becomes a hellish hound with red glowing markings over black fur. He can go in that form if angry enough. Really need to bring him back.
* Shaman’s planet is made of a special kind of metal. It can bounce back into it’s shape after a whole lot of pressure to it. So Shaman can’t destroy it by accident.
* Despite being shown as pissed off constantly and going head first into battle without thinking, Shaman the Second has got some pretty big brain. She has made a gigantic robot suit that resembles bowser that can go into a bigger form that resembles giga bowser. She has also made Black Mamba, her very own transformer who’s vehicle form is a monster truck and real form that’s still a mystery.
* Shaman the First loves every single one of you. She is the creation of everything and she created you for a good reason. She created the rainbow for you to enjoy the beauty of colors in the sky, the moon as a night light for those scared of the dark, the sun to keep you warm and grow food for you to eat, animals to be companions because whats more better tjan friends? More friends! She created the ocean for you to travel to all sorts of places to meet new people or cind a good home, she created snow because look at all these tricks with water! She created the stars because she knew how you liked how they shimmer and sparkle, and she created you because she wanted others to see the beauty in her creations. So anytime you feel down, remember, gay space wolf god created you for these reasons and she has more to show you. So please wait while she makes more for you. You’re gonna love it.
I know it was four facts(I think it was , I can't remember what it was about), but I figured I give more considering how long this took for me to answer. So there you have it! Hopefully I’ll respond more quicker on the next ones!! 👽😜

Must-watch Super Best Friends LPs: A curated list
So, I tried to get a friend of mine into bestfriends when he was in active service and didn’t have much time to sit and watch youtube. While I think you should probably watch all of the bestfriends content, aint nobody got time for that, and there are certain LPs that are just better ones. Here’s a list of what I consider to be the best SBFP lets plays. There won’t be any ‘Matt’s toybox’ or one-offs, only full LPs.
Predator: Concrete Jungle - Originator of Jerry the Predator, the very first bestfriends OC. Also I really like the Predator so this trash game getting ripped to shreds by the anti-hype machine makes me feel good. https://youtu.be/0wF6r-JRTvQ
Eternal Darkness - The climax of the very first Shitstorm of Scariness. Genesis of the Insanity Shotgun, marking out about recognizing Metal Gear Solid voice actors, INSANITY EFFECTS and freaking out about the bathtub scare despite knowing it was coming. https://youtu.be/lYRVeFkTvCM
Silent Hill: Homecoming - First half of the Downcoming series. ‘MY HOUSE!’ ‘Why is the knife the best weapon? Just do knife combos to them, thats survival horror’ https://youtu.be/GLgN5WSiiX4
Silent Hill: Downpour - Second half of the Downcoming series. The first time I saw the guys play a game that was brand new at the time. Pat & Matt getting upset about the downturn of one of my and their favorite series. The famous Axe Throw that launched a career is in this one too I believe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5ofoIeb8wI&list=PLAD720396A1870C8E
Resident Evil 2 - Earliest recorded footage of Pat’s stand CRAZY TALK where he claims to know a thing or be an expert and is proven unequivocably wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Cgbuv3cB1Q&list=PLB8826287748EFE7C
Final Fight: Streetwise - What happens when you take a classic beat em up and try to make it cool and modern with lots of Slipknot music? It ages fucking poorly that’s what. ‘I got a receipt for my Tatsu’ ‘I’d like to return this shoryureppa’, Live footage of the bestfriends souls leaving their body in The Stiff boss fight, Some actually decent writing and lines such as ‘Feeling good about potentially feeling good’ which Matt will quote for years to come. https://youtu.be/HnRNyfzKLL8
Man vs Wild - Not so much a must-watch as it’s just the boys in their element, playing shovelware, deliberately failing QTEs to laugh at how pitiful it looks when you do, making fun of people’s accents, and much more. Indicative of the bestfriends style of sort of mst3king videogames. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1NGPAOrE80&list=PL57hJfweW_2s2jyxas78kIib9M3jGduU8
Heavy Rain - The very first game played in the Sadness trilogy. ‘Oh no, I made ze bad game’, more fucking up of QTEs when it’d be funny, Detective Shelby’s PI Gumball technique after shooting thirty rounds out of a handgun without reloading, FUTURE GLASSES, and other classics. Woolie will play this himself on a livestream, many years later, which is also a good watch. https://youtu.be/Qe-SpjInztQ
Indigo Prophecy - The first game of the Sadness trilogy, though it was played later than Heavy Rain. Space kung-fu, zombie sex with a lady you barely know, your choices don’t matter!, Slagging off of David Cage intensifies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YacYbUC_FmQ&list=PL57hJfweW_2sOt01sX9TtQRkzv5RS231f
Charles Barkley’s Shut Up And Jam: Gaiden - Seems to be originally selected as a ‘ha ha, we’re playing a bad and stupid game to laugh at it’ but then discovering it’s legitimately awesome despite being frankly ridiculous. If you can’t play the game yourself, this is a very good substitute. https://youtu.be/xNc9R1zfwM0
Beyond: Two Souls - The third game of the Sadness trilogy. David Cage creeping on Ellen Paige in real life and making her be naked in his game, E MO SHUNS, having feelings but not knowing where to put them, ‘I’ll be your Stand! ORARARARARARA’, Underwater chinese ghost base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GA_VUoePgrc&list=PL57hJfweW_2ulXc25A-LxxHXMPqLOwrsf
Deadly Premonition - Swery65′s magnum opus, if only he could’ve put bicycles in the game. He totally didn’t watch Twin Peaks you guys. ‘QUIIIIIIINT!’, ‘Stinky agent’, radio fast travel stock tire screech sfx, monkey noise squirrels and a weird amount of attention paid to food. Matt named his pet cat Zach due to this game, so it’s an extra important part of the bestfriends lore. https://youtu.be/dsbfmIqP-H8
Disaster: Day of Crisis - Metal Gear Solid except the giant robots are natural disasters. Gotta get revenge on the volcano for killing my buddy. Eating watermelons while on fire. Don’t forget to take your stami-nas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Sx8gqSjkMY&list=PL57hJfweW_2t-vHWWeqjY2SKH4vaqotZ6
Yakuza 4 - My first exposure to the Yakuza game series and actually a good starting point for people that don’t know anything about it. The hype, badassery, and hilarity in all its glory. Who’s ready for a shirtless fight on top of Millennium Tower? https://youtu.be/xOKx_79BEhY
Prison Break - More shovelware where they fail stealth sequences a million times, fail QTEs because it’s hilarious, and can’t show too much violence because it’s a T-rated game. https://youtu.be/TsjGGGSZabA
Resident Evil 4 HD - Get hype for suplexing priests, El Gigante, Doctor Salvatore, Isn’t that Mexican spanish not Spanish Spanish? Commando shit and the RE movie, Oops Ashley is dead again, Pat is bad at puzzles and crazy talk activates. https://youtu.be/qsazQp4VlI0
Silent Hill 2 - Everything is illness, or else its condoms! The nurses are TOO STRONG!, the boys actually just enjoying a game and (mostly) being good at it for once.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsYYIjaNPP8&list=PL57hJfweW_2vMmw0MLZp8I16DA-Qev8ec
Resident evil Revelations 2 - Re vuh lay uh tons!, Wait how’d a non mainline resi game get this good?, MOIRA MC TAGGART MC MURPHY, another co-op LP where Matt’s actual role in the game mechanics is to point out ammo and health items that Pat missed. https://youtu.be/THfgNlcNa98
Resident Evil 3 - Jill Valentine’s not actually last escape, Crazy Talk activates several times, Shitting on Hunter-D’s, being a huge coward constantly like the hero of RE brad vickers. https://youtu.be/G5pXyRhs7FM
Ride to Hell - Legendarily bad game played by canadian losers that make fun of it constantly. Source of just SO MANY bestfriends gifs including casual priest drownings, getting shot during cutscenes, and Qui-gon chi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEw04pKaVs4&list=PL57hJfweW_2srGztN1iedcFd-BV5X1Ram
Parasite Eve - It’s time for Aya Breakowski to GET HOT. It’s a squaresoft game all right, dogs with sniper rifles, finishing downloading arcana heart, and the heroest of hero cops willingly lighting on fire to give you a gun. https://youtu.be/dHY5ZBSHzyw
Danganronpa - Ultra Despair Girls - First recorded instance of being incredibly hype and getting into the cool pop art aesthetic, komaeda memes, and then all hype leaving our body, and out of context shouting KILL THOSE SHIT KIDS! https://youtu.be/qYtYp4oWBhU
Life is Strange - Liam’s rivalry with another wimpy boy, Hotdogman: Who is he?, You sacrificed everyone for your Ship? Are you Griffith?, and rewinding time to fuck with people for kicks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XZ7-wFLnfI&list=PL57hJfweW_2u1mKS5UFNgx-voVAvTlkT9
Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain - Built-up hype from over one thousand years of waiting is collectively released. Psycho Mantis is OP, let the legend come back to life, GREATEST SOLDIER IN THE WORLD BIG BOSS, D-dog is the cutest and bestest of boys, and famously awkward jeep ride. https://youtu.be/505vXWYkxcw
Afro Samurai - Perhaps the shovelest of ware ever played on the channel. It’s very short, only 3 parts, about 90 minutes of gameplay, something that everyone should be super hype about but ends up being the most shitted on game since perhaps one of the Sadness games. https://youtu.be/wIXqEulMTIo
Resident Evil Zero HD - Get hyped for Oven Man mk2, math puzzles, getting pissed off at Eliminators, Rebecca! God dammit Rebecca! I love youuuuu rebeccaaaaaa, Leech Man, and playing dress-up. https://youtu.be/Mhnthhluh70
Metal Wolf Chaos - Giant robots and engrish, more than your body can handle! AMERICA!!!! Richard Hawke! OK, Lets PARTEEEEEEEY! Tons of references they’ll be using until the end of time https://youtu.be/Mhnthhluh70
Naruto: The Broken Bond - ‘Wait, this game is actually good?’ and then three parts later oops no its not. Second instance of being super hyped at first and then all joy slowly being sucked out of the boys’ body. Do your rasengan, even when you’re not playing as Naruto! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo92m-rfeHA&list=PL57hJfweW_2uIIqa3HTcbsvM5LO1ObM_5
The Punisher - Rice cookers, My family-family-family!, guessing Frank’s one-liners, violent safety PSAs, and interrogating the boat https://youtu.be/wznGw9fJNCc
Disaster Report - ‘Is this Disaster day of crisis’ sequel?’, The honeycomb-caisonne method, press triangle to HEY!, be mean to your waifu, and abandon your friends like a hero would do. https://youtu.be/UYiwWU8EZcU
Final Fantasy X - Matt talks about Lulu’s boobs a lot, BLEETSBOLL, Wakka the racist, kimahri push, Finding all the memes possible, Hype Cactaur!, ‘I’ll pay you to fuck off, okay?’, and punting a boss over the horizon. A long watch and the boys are kinda bad at the game but good for the patient. https://youtu.be/qpZeMkthdZ8
Omikron: The Nomad Soul - The secret first entry of the Sadness Trilogy, ‘Get in the slider!’, Blackface Boyz, The real final boss is david cage!, getting trapped in bug purgatory, yes this is how you should honor the memory David Bowie by playing this game, Using the power of all three bestfriends to beat the game, and having no consequences for failure right up until THE MOST CONSEQUENCES. https://youtu.be/691RrF9pnaU
Silent Hill 3 -  No talking during the cut scenes, beef jerky, a detective does a Jerry Seinfeld on Silent Hill by accident, and ‘It’s a metaphor for dicks/childbirth!‘
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4wERZf6bns&list=PL57hJfweW_2v34HsPK-4Hfqmkb22zjBWC
Tony Hawk’s Underground - Woolie lives the skateboarder life he never could for real. ‘Won’t they notice that it’s not Eric Sparrow on the video when they see a clearly black man doing that jump?’, Eric Sparrow is basically up there with Griffith for villains the bestfriends hate the most, and ‘I can do a grind all day’ https://youtu.be/3HLPS_nwHG8
Parasite Eve 2 - More of Breakowski and getting HOT, ‘This is basically a survival horror game’, The dog from Independance Day must survive or else you’re on the bad ending! https://youtu.be/JedQqaXdWLc
LA Noire - The big one, the one I always suggest for new bestfriends watchers as being emblematic of their style and sense of humor and weaknesses as players. Woolie can’t navigate this map, ‘Sometimes you’ve gotta shake the tree and see what falls out’, Shotgun man wrecks your shit!, making noises to go along with the faces that the characters are making, ‘Pedophilia? That’s a free pass in my town sir’, Stealing the worst possible cars because they thought it’d be cool, forgetting the controls for every single fistfight sequence, Cole Phelps super cop!, and LP Funsies. https://youtu.be/-bPqjD_zg5g
Policenauts - Kojima’s game from when he was allowed to work on things besides Metal Gear. It’s definitely white blood and not anything sexual, SHOOTINGU SEQUENCE, Holy crap our main character is a bigoted piece of shit!, Figure out the bomb puzzle!, We’re definitely not Riggs and Murtagh to the point where Woolie says ‘I’m gettin too old for this shit’ about 70 times, and the uncomfortable truth of cloning. https://youtu.be/kWcecAHiOys
Dead Space 2- Notable mostly for me as Dead Space 2 was the first bestfriends video I ever saw back when they were on Machinima, so I was quoting Space Rave and asking Matt if he needed a blankey to fight the monsters. https://youtu.be/1QzY-TjFGFI
Resident Evil 7 - We hate the molded as an enemy type, OOOH GOD DAMMIT JACK, He fucking exploded into goo!, What was your plan?, I can’t shoot the granny, We definitely used a pump action shotgun in world war 2 (Actually yes we did, Matt), Shadow puzzles, that part of a lady is where all the wasps shoot out, and What that guy doesn’t look like Chris Redfield who is this impostor?! https://youtu.be/SyAZ2-nijDE
Def Jam: Fight for NY - The introduction of Woolie’s OC: Rage beats up rappers, steals their girlfriends, and doesn’t understand intimacy, The full might of Matt’s hatred for Bless is brought out, and they talk about the Aki engine’s contributions to humanity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lry0SYYkvas&list=PL57hJfweW_2tWHTvp2ESXbzp1-jh6YJMQ

Blind Rage
Prompt: No prompt. reply to this.  Who: Claudia x Alex / Jackson Kent Verse: Marriage!Au For: @ofwonderprince
Notes: Domestic Abuse Mentioned. Physical Abuse. Emotional Abuse. (None done by Alex.) Violence. Jack is a trigger all of his own. If you are triggered easily, do not read this.
Dramatic af lmao
The room buzzed with disgustingly warm conversation and smooth jazz music. It was hot, and Alex could feel his fresh, white shirt clinging to his back from perspiration. He was exhausted and hungry. A bad mix, when he needed to get some people to like him and give him money for his campaign. He smiled and nodded to the old woman who talked fondly of her last Christmas at one of her granddaughter’s home. He did his best to stay focused, but his gaze was caught by Claudia near the chocolate fountain.
“I’m sorry, I’d like to check on my wife. Would you mind if we continued this later in the evening?” His attention was further distracted by the man who was talking to Claudia now, but he needed to wrap this up as nicely as possible.
The old woman said something about Claudia being pregnant, and he replied robotically, “Yes, we’re excited for our baby boy. Thank you and I hope you have a lovely time at our gala.”
Alex would have been picking away at every detail after a conversation with a possible donor, but he was already taking long strides to reach Claudia as quickly as possible. The man was touching her now, and she looked scared.
“Claudia,” he called out. She turned, and he was able to see her relax through his trained eyes. Before he could ask her if she was okay, the man extended a hand. Alex could finally see who it was. He had never seen a photo of Claudia’s abuser, but he knew because he was exactly how she had described him. 
The body language Jackson exhibited was possession or ownership... of Claudia. His voice and expression oozed conceit, but his eyes were full of malice or maybe it was from the pain that he still carried when Claudia finally left him. Regardless of what it was, it was being paraded in front of him like a gigantic display. The small calm that Alex found was the voice of one of his college buddies chuckling in his head, “He’s all dicks out to impress you. Make him your bitch.” It allowed him to smile as Jackson confirmed that Alex was Claudia’s husband. He caught Claudia’s warning glance, but he instinctively took Jack’s hand anyway.
Jackson began to speak again, “What’s it like being married to such a useless, uncaring slut? Does it bother you that she’s so desperate for any form of positive attention, or are you into that sort of thing?”
The smile faded as Alex let go of Jack’s hand, but his composure was thankfully still intact. His own expression neutral. He turned to his wife, pulling her a little closer and away from Jackson. “Claudia, do you want to go talk to some donors with me? They’re over there, and they’ve been asking for you.” He could feel her hand trembling on his arm, and he could hear the weak “please” from her lips, which irritated him more than what Jackson said about her.
Claudia despised men, even talked about all the colorful ways she’d kill the rapists and pedophiles. She was unforgiving and fearless, but this useless prick made her shake. Made her lose all rationality... 
Alex knew why. He knew the two’s past and the truth. All the truths that Alex didn’t ask for, flowing from Claudia’s drunken lips. Alex never drank enough to lose his memory or consciousness, so they were seared into his mind, screaming from behind doors that Alex closed for his own sanity.
His jaws were clenched when he refocused on what Jackson was saying, “She’s feeling helpless right now, isn’t she?” Jack teased, “Typical Columbus. She acts so bravely when needed but if you’re a little nice to her, she’ll forgive any horrible thing you’ve ever done to her. Like now.” The man loomed over Claudia, and Alex’s head began to buzz from the day’s fatigue, hunger, heat, and now this. It was the same irritating high pitch buzz from the room, and it muffled the rest of Jackson’s taunting. 
Alex just wanted this psychotic bastard to stop talking, so Claudia and Alex could resume being a picture-perfect couple and show off their perfect little baby to the rest of the people. All patience was lost when Jackson raised his hand as if to hit Claudia’s swollen belly, but he forced his jaw to relax by balling his right hand into a fist. He recited the pledge of allegiance in his head to try and cool down, but the piece of shit laughed and smiled like he owned the place. He even began to shake Claudia by the shoulders, further taunting her.
And then Alex did it, he fucking hit Jackson in the face. He watched blood trickle from the man’s nose before he wound his arm up for another blow. The rage was felt in Claudia’s place, and it was further fueled by her fear and shame. It pushed down the nausea he usually felt at the sight of blood. 
Jackson stumbled backwards as he tried to create a distance between him and Alex, while Alex just rushed in and hit him again. The shock that had replaced Jack’s smug expression appeased Alex, and he went deaf to Claudia’s shouts and the voice of the concerned crowd that surrounded the two men. He didn’t know how many times he hit him, and he didn’t care. He pictured Jack showing up at their front door and dragging Claudia by the hair with Jason in his arms, the baby screaming in protest. The bastard was capable of it and more. He deserved to die.
He was on top of Jack now, pounding flesh and bone with the flesh and bone of his own hands. He felt his knuckles ache but didn’t stop. Someone tried pulling him off, but he punched that man too and resumed punching Jack with in a slow and controlled manner. Flashes went off from numerous cameras around him, documenting his barbaric act, but the idea of his reputation being tainted didn’t stop him either.
He stopped because he had no more physical strength, not because he wanted to stop. He wasn’t satisfied by the labor breathing coming from the abuser, but he stopped. He stood, swaying a little from standing so suddenly. He walked towards Claudia, his face covered in blood and sweat. He wiped them away with the sleeve of his shirt, disgusted by the strong smell of iron from the blood.
“Are you okay?” he asked between labored breaths. It was a normal question in a bizarre, hallucination-like situation, but Claudia replied by touching her forehead to his. He sighed, touching her head gently. The moment of peace was interrupted, and he felt strong hands grip his arms as he was escorted outside with the cop citing:
“You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning...”

jaykori, burn, baby, burn
remember how i said i was going to do these quote prompts? i didn’t like the last few parts of it. maybe i’ll post them if this is worth of something for someone? 
title: burn, baby, burn.
warning: a lot of swearing. based on the universe of the teen titans series were (maybe) jason was red x. also, ENGLISH IS NOT MY MOTHER TONGUE, SO FORGIVE ANY MISTAKES. point them out to me and i’ll fix it, pleease.
i.
"Fancy meeting you here, cutie."
He tries to keep it cool, but as hard as it might seem to believe —because, hell, does he not look handsome as fuck in his suit?— sometimes that's easier said than done. Still, Jason strives and presses his right hip against the kitchen table, crossing both arms in front of himself as well as his ankles while he prays to the gods not to fall on his face or to appear as awkward as the position is.
Starfire lifts one tiny perfect eyebrow and stops putting mustard over her breakfast. She states without even blinking. "I live here."
Red X became the newest member of the Teen Titans almost two weeks ago. Now he has a home with a bathroom included and, surprisingly enough, real friends whom he can call a family. The problem is, though, that Tamaraneans are quite fond of firsts impressions and they cling to the feelings they get from it, they're utterly true about and to them, no in-between. So, he was having a really hard time getting himself on Kori’s —he had learned her true name recently— soft spot.
"So, I was thinking--"
"That's a first."
Starfire seems to stiffen for a second, as if regretting her words. He speaks again. “I think we should date, cutie.”
He lets out a grimace and suddenly is all to glad he didn’t stop wearing the mask. Jason caught Beast Boy's sympathetic expression at the other side of the room, and he wills himself to swallow a sigh. She actually was learning to be sarcastic, a new way of protesting his undesirable presence. This is his fault, because who else would dare to fall in love with such a fierce woman? Then, again, who the fuck could not to.
He fucks up, of course. “I think you should leave.”
She resumes her task rapidly and takes her food to another place when she’s done. Jason doesn’t say much after that, he keeps her company until she leaves the room. After her fragrance stops lingering in the air, and for fuck sakes, isn’t he the lamest romantic fool in this world? He makes his way to Beast Boy, who is screaming something to Cyborg as the game they’re playing flashes a gigantic ‘Game Over’ sign. They only shut up when he pushes himself between the two in order to steal the latter’s control.
“Dude,” Victor speaks, watching them play again. “If you want to make her like you, you will have to do something else.”
“I know.”
ii.
He knows what he has to do, doesn’t mean he wants to do it.
He hates the fact that she is worth it.
“Keep your head up, kiddo.”
It was fucking hard to ask Robin to please, please, pair him up with her in their next stake-out. It earned him some distasteful look, even behind the mask. He was not oblivious to the way Robin looked after Kori, but he had noticed too the way he acted around Batgirl when they traveled to Gotham. That had been the reassurance he had needed to decide he was not going to stop, even if Robin was not happy about it.
So here they are. She’s floating beside him, watching carefully their surroundings as he keeps his eyes glued to the alley where it's expected to reappear some idiotic villain they have been fighting the last few days, dangerously close to the edge of the roof.
The only reason why Dick had agreed to it, was because he knew how important it was to have a good relationship with the team. Sucker.
He knows she’s concerned, she can’t help but show her emotions, though she tries to hide it and that only makes her look cuter. They hadn’t be able to get him xynothium, so he only has his own audacity to keep himself alive. That, and the protection she could provide. He almost felt glad he had to rely on her, despite the atmosphere.
Starfire was not happy and it didn’t have to do completely with him, right?
“I’m older than you, you know?”
She scoffs adorably. “Doesn’t mean anything. I’m in charge and you are just annoying.”
Hell, he was all tingly, she was the cutest thing alive.
This kind of exchange had become something common. They would argue to no end about anything he could do on purpose. For some, it might not be the best way to approach her, no one would want to make Starfire mad, but slowly she had started to say more words to him, to actually acknowledge his existence. He knew that at some point they were going to pass the angry conversation as they had done with the awkward one, maybe someday they could be just friends and for him that would be enough. For now, though, he was enjoying all this bickering.
“Well, you’ll have to make me.”
Robin’s voice cut any answer her parted lips might have been about to tell, lecturing them about keeping quiet. It was his way of showing some jealousy action, more now that they were kind of mad to each other, but Jason was not worried about it, not when he knew Kori was not so happy with their leader. She didn’t answer to Robin, which was nice, to be true, but her frown deepened and Jason only wanted erase it, though he much rather like to bring her down and kiss it away.
Her anger towards Robin only deepens with his cold words. He presses his forearms to the edge and casually turns off his communicator. He knows she is watching him and hopes she doesn’t take it on the wrong side.
“Do you think birds are scared of heights?”
He feels warm inside when she lands on the floor and slowly turns off her communicator too. The night seems all better without him rambling through their ears. With a sigh, she mimics his position.
“Shut up.”
“Someone’s grumpy.”
“Someone wants to die today.”
He laughs. He has to be some kind of masochist idiot. When he searches for her eyes and sees some kind of small smile, all laughter dies inside and he decides this time is okay to keep quiet, no more bickering, just her and those perfect lips.
(…)
“Can you kiss my boo-boo?”
Kori looks at him through her eyelashes. He knows he’s pushing it, but he can’t help it and it is her fault he is like this. She had smiled to him –though, maybe, not exactly to him, but who cares–, a pretty little push to her lips and he just didn’t know what was his name or where the fuck he was. It was a beginners mistake, but Jason was all about new beginnings these days, more so when she was around. When the bad guy had came out, his mind was elsewhere, maybe kissing her senseless in another rooftop, so in the end he had gotten himself injured. It was worth it, though, because she felt responsible for him and had been taking care of each necessity since yesterday.
Jason lifts his finger up higher in her direction. She is squinting her eyes to him as she holds a spoon with jelly for him to swallow. She made it herself and he is eager to try it, but priorities are a thing.
“Please? It really hurts,” he says.
He sounds too cocky for her to believe him, but she still flushes slightly, just as she has been doing this last few days. Jason really can’t help it, it’s all her fault. Robin is watching their exchange from a corner as Beast Boy snorts, in the form of a dog, snuggled by Star’s feet.
She pressed her lips to a thin line, looking all red and mad, but then kisses it with so much strength that his broken arm has to flex. Fuck. Worth it.
iii.
Trygon had destroyed the Tower. He feels kind of sad about it, but it has been a long time since he learned not to attach to things. Kori seems to think the same, she probably does, she has lost her home before, these he knows thanks to Beast Boy’s big mouth, but her eyes still shine with some kind of sadness he doesn’t like. Jason strides slowly in her direction and tries his luck.
“I just think the life of a hobo wouldn't be all that bad."
She watches him with mild curiosity, sitting by a rock as the shadows of Cyborg’s robots reflects on them, working on the new structure that will uphold their restored tower. “You are literally homeless.”
“So much freedom!”
Jason thinks she will ignore him, but then suddenly her laugh fills his ears and he has to close his fists to avoid taking her hand to pull her and press her against his body. He wants to hold her, feel her body shake with laughter while it. Shitfuck, he likes her so much better this way, he would do anything to keep it like that.
“You are such a fool.”
“What makes you think I’m joking?”
She smiles again. Fuck. Then she sighs. He’s so doomed.
“Why did this happen?” She asks, looking to the sky.
There’s no more sadness, just resignation, but also hope. He has no such luck, because even if she is the sun and she makes him happy just by smiling, life has fucked him over too many times to change by now, so he replies with blunt sincerity.
“Because sometimes life sucks.”
“That’s not a nice thing to say.”
He shrugs, some kind of bittersweet feeling slipping through his tongue.
“Not all things are nice and cute and perfect like you, princess.”
He meant it as an angry reply, he is angry to the world most of the time, but as he finds her green eyes looking at him, he realizes he just sounded plainly truthful. Painfully so. It is nothing new, not really, he daily tells her how they should date, how she should give him a kiss, how perfect she is, but he always makes it sound as a joke. He doesn’t laugh or shrug off his words this time, Jason lets them sink into her and hopes, just hopes.
iv.
The mask lies beside him as he stares to the night sky, both arms resting under his head. Thunder and lightning threaten the peace of the night, but Jason likes it, he is not afraid of getting wet, it is almost a promise he looks forward to.
It has been a long time since he felt this peaceful. The tower is good as new, their teamwork is even better. You might think that, living with Robin, things would be hard on him, but they’re not, both of them have become kind of close, only communicating through nods and silences; it is not much, but he knows it’s a great deal. They share some kind of affinity that Dick, as he now knows is his real name, doesn’t share with Cyborg or Speedy or Beast Boy. He actually wonders if maybe, in another life, they would’ve been able to be like brothers.
He is so engrossed in his thoughts that he smells her even before he can hear her. The fact that she floats around doesn’t help him much lately. She doesn’t give him enough time to put on the mask again, so he sits up rapidly and turns his face away from her.
“Do you ever sleep?”
He is surprised she knows about his lack of sleeping hours. If he didn’t felt so vulnerable without his mask, he would’ve smiled as big as he could. He clenches his fists and tries to stop the grin on his face, looking at her by the corner of his eyes. Shadows are casting above them, so he knows she can barely see him.
“Keeping an eye on me, cutie?”
He sounds oddly sure of himself, at least for someone who can’t face the other person. Jason thinks he is dumb as fuck, but the fact that she hasn’t take her eyes away from him scares him so fucking much he has to stand up and walk away, even if it means letting his mask forgotten by her feet. Kori crocks her head, following him with her glowing eyes, he can’t see it, but feels the burn on his back.
“I’ve never seen your face,” she says instead.
“It’s not something I like to show much.”
“Why?”
He pauses, then, he speaks truthfully, because he doesn’t want to lie to her. “It makes me feel more like myself: Jason Todd, orphan kid, trashy stuff.”
It is the first time he has told her his name and somehow he finds the strength to straighten up and look at her, though only through his right side. He likes her so fucking much that he can’t help but blurt out all the things he doesn’t want to, he has known this for quite some time now and the only thing saving him had been his mask, his other identity—Red X. She looks at him, her eyes bright and full of care and once again he is not surprised, that’s just the way she is.
“You are not trashy. I--” she stops, looks to the ground, then lifts her face. “I’m sorry if I was mean to you before.”
“You would’ve never be mean to me.” Even if she was, he would just find her endearing.
She looks to the ground again, then flashes him a shy look. “Do you mean it?”
“What?”
“The things you tell me. The names you call me with.”
He wonders what kind of expression he is showing to her as he walks a step in her direction, the light of a sing illuminating him, leaving him bare in front of her.
“Yeah. It’s always been you.”
She bites her lips. He wants to do that for her.
“I can’t. I’m sorry, I just can’t.”
He knows that,  Jason knows she still looks after Robin. “I know. You don’t have to be sorry.”
“But I’m not giving up.”
She stands up slowly and before she’s gone, he speaks again.

Reacting to Captain America: Civil War (Part 1 of 3)
You Get Your Fave Color As a Name
Tumblr media
The Setup: Kris thought it would be cool to bring in Guest Reactors from time to time, so Marchae asked her brother Clint, a superhero comics superfan, if he’d want to do a Reaction with her. Much to her regret, he enthusiastically suggested Captain America: Civil War, which Miri and Kris also love. Marchae, however, was pretty sure she’d only seen the first Iron Man and The Avengers before this, so the first part of this Reaction is mostly just her trying to wrap her head around the admittedly gigantic cast.
Miri and Kris added notes in italics after the fact. As always, you can click on the first appearances of our names to see our creative and critical influences.
MARCHAE: CLINT! Hello 
CLINT: Hey
MARCHAE: K, So first and most importantly thanks for reacting with me Secondly... What exactly is the name of the movie…?  Captain America 3 or Captain American 3 Avengers Civil War... I am still a bit confused there 
CLINT: no prob it was an experience
MARCHAE: (me watching the movie with you?) 
CLINT:  Just Captain America: 3 Civil war. Both
MARCHAE:  Ok so I told you how this works... We watch and we react. As you know I landed with about 8 pages of handwritten notes. I literally am going to start at page one and work my way down... Also, you may indeed ask me all of the questions you have 
CLINT: And me a quarter page
MARCHAE: LOL 
how many times have you watched the movie 
CLINT: I'll go with several
MARCHAE: I want a number 
CLINT: The time in the theater?
MARCHAE: I'll tell you how many times I've watched Seven Pounds and Beyond the Lights
CLINT: Billions
MARCHAE: Same!
more than 20?
CLINT: It's likely. It's a happy place for me
MARCHAE: That movie is your happy place? I feel like I've perhaps failed you as a sibling and a friend
CLINT: It's one of them my inner child goes bananas and it's a good movie
MARCHAE: hmmm.... 
Ok so I want to start with my first question... I still was unclear if Hydra was a place or a person or a combination of both
CLINT: Hydra is an organization age old. It's a way deeper answer than that. But I won't bore you
MARCHAE: OHHHHHHH... I am sure I went through the entire film trying to use context clues. And thank you! 
CLINT: It can turn into an argument about fascism. We will avoid that
MIRI: Hydra is Nazis, pass it on
MARCHAE: **SHAKES HEAD**
CLINT: And you didn't see winter soldier
So yeah
KRIS: I told you to see Winter Soldier, Marchae
MARCHAE: ok... So my next prelim question- Wanda is black panther or Scarlett witch? 
CLINT: Black panther was the black man from Africa
KRIS: and the best part of this movie DON’T @ ME
MARCHAE: like i need their "super people names" 
and Wanda alternate reality girl? 
CLINT: In the black cat suit
MARCHAE: I know who he was now... but who is Wanda? Was there a Wanda
Tumblr media
CLINT: No reality warping
K: For non-comics readers: Wanda’s powers are traditionally characterized as “hexes” to alter the probability of weird things happening around her or to her targets. They’re derived from her mutant DNA, and amplified by training in “chaos magic.” 
The movies have simplified this -- partly because of licensing issues with the X-Men -- to telekinesis, force fields, and (though not seen in Civil War) some mind control, derived from experiments with an Infinity Stone.
MARCHAE: same difference 
CLINT: There was a Wanda, Scarlett witch
Big difference
MARCHAE: OK 
CLINT: Bigly
MARCHAE: DO NOT! 
CLINT: Lol
MARCHAE: ok so now I am ready... Why is this not just called Avengers 3? I think it is annoying that this series tries to think it's cool and we talked about this briefly in person but it is confusing. There was an Avengers 1 with the same exact people and this seems like a legit continuation of that same story
CLINT: Well it is but isn't at the same time the avengers deal with the oncoming threat of Thanos where cap is more of a story that goes into his character and journey of being in our time you have to remember he's been frozen since the end of ww2 the only person left alive that he knew is Bucky. His whole world is dead. Cap is a man out of time
I hope that helped
MARCHAE: Yeah.  So he was frozen from part one?  til now? 
CLINT: no…
MARCHAE: so that's my question
CLINT: We start with him being thawed in avengers. Cap one told the story of how he became cap
Two was him finding a role in our time. Three was defining that role
MARCHAE: and three is the curfuffle that find themselves in now! GOTCHA. ok so NOW on with the show 
CLINT: Yes. Cap is the moral compass of the avengers
How did you feel about the big font
MARCHAE: big font? 
CLINT: For locations
MARCHAE: You mean to let us know we'd shifted in time/location? 
CLINT: Yes
MARCHAE: HAHAH. It was delightful and was a great way to keep notes!  BUT
CLINT: But...
MARCHAE: I want to go back a few paces to something you just tried to slide in there like hot butter on a frying pan CAPTAIN AMERICA as the MORAL COMPASS  umm no thank you! that will be a hard pass! I think indeed I said in my notes and to quote myself: "THANK GOD I don't live in this world with these people" 
Tumblr media
CLINT: Ok why do you find that hard to believe
MARCHAE: I also said danger follows these people and thank god that General Ross is aware of their shenanigans and has checked their reckless a**es
MIRI: MARCHAE noooooo!
K: I’m with Marchae on this one. Ross is an antagonist, technically, and he’s a dick, obviously, but given the information available to him at any point in this movie (as opposed to in The Incredible Hulk) he’s damn near a voice of reason. And he stays out of T’Challa’s way, which is generally a good policy.
CLINT: But what if they weren't around to stop said danger
MARCHAE: (also you can swear if you'd like... I just usually don't but really it's fine) ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW 
they don't behave with much caution and they blow all the things up (although I will add that if this had just been non stop action movie with fight scenes I would have been super happy!!!)
CLINT: So you'd just leave super villains to be and let the chips handle it
MARCHAE: I felt like honestly, I don't want any of them saving me and found myself wishing that Superman could be called to restore all the order to the world. Also I'd call actual people in who could handle their crap
CLINT: did you see man of steel
MARCHAE: I am a purist when it comes to Superman... I only watch the black and white and the Dean Cain  versions...none of this new stuff BECAUSE (now go with me as I go down the list of my MANY observations (note i capped MANY) about your friends the avengers
CLINT: That's good because he destroyed metropolis and murdered
MARCHAE: and why I do not think that they are the individuals I'd want to protect me... I took notes **BOOM** 
(you may have to help with names)
CLINT: They seem like just regular people
MARCHAE: No…that's not the only reason why...I really did have reasons... 
1. Jarvis/Vision he is a toddler
like literally three years old he does not understand that entrapment and walking through walls when doors are clearly OPENED is a thing that people do...
Tumblr media
CLINT: Give or take yes he was an AI then got a body
MARCHAE: right... so sprinkle him with water, we got short circuits and I still die! 
K: He’s not a robot in the old school sense, he’s made of vibranium and artificial muscle. Also, Iron Man’s armor is waterproof. As are a lot of electronic things in real life.
CLINT: Well how many people do you know that can rank through walls
He can get wet
Or just phase through the water
MARCHAE: None! but how does that HELP me in danger...this is legit about why I DON'T think they are qualified 
2. Olsen Sister/alternate reality girl 
PEOPLE HATE HER and she's volatile
MIRI: Other people’s ire does not make her a bad person?? 
KRIS: SHE’S BEEN THROUGH A LOT MARCHAE
Tumblr media
CLINT: He had a head canon and can fly
K: I know it’s just a typo but now I’m deeply curious about Vision’s headcanon. Doesn’t matter for what pop culture, just any headcanon. What do you think Vision’s favorite TV shows are?
MARCHAE: which means that in a fight they will kill her iin this film he had one job and one job only ... to keep Olsen Sister in check,  he failed. So no he may not assist in saving my life 
Black Witch is her name I think 
CLINT: Scarlet Witch would be hard to kill if she knew that's what you were trying to do that. And he had a crush on her 
Black Widow
MARCHAE: DAMN ALL THESE NAMES WITH BLACK IN FRONT OF THEM!!! I don't care what he had and also who says “hey I'm gonna try and kill you before that take over the  world with Marchae in it…beware…toodles! no one.. 
CLINT: You get your fave color as a name
MARCHAE: She's on my list of NO DO NOT SAVE ME  what do you mean like they could call me Black Grey? like if that were my superhero name as in my two favorite colors? 
Tumblr media
CLINT: You wouldn't let black widow save you
MARCHAE: That's the Olsen Sister
CLINT: It's only one color.
No
MARCHAE: OHHHH I see what you mean
CLINT: Scarlet jojo
MARCHAE: Ok i am so confused can we go back and clear this up.. I am sure this post is getting me kicked out of my group 
1. What is the Olsen Sister's name Black.... 
CLINT: Scarlet Witch
MARCHAE: SHIT! you just made me break my rule 
CLINT: Lol
MARCHAE: SO SCARLET WITCH (who i have been talking about this entire time) COULD NOT SAVE ME!!!! 
CLINT: You did take notes?
MARCHAE: I DID
CLINT: Why not
MARCHAE: She's volatile and PEOPLE HATE HER
Tumblr media
ok 3. 
K: Is she “volatile”? Wasn’t Lagos an issue of technical control, as opposed to temperament?
CLINT:  You'd get why if you saw her back story
MARCHAE:  No time out. Go back so explain the name thing . So your favorite colors is part of your name 
you mean to tell me this world gets only two colors  black and scarlet
CLINT:  No not all the time
MIRI: I mean Black Widow is named for the spider. They didn’t actually choose the color for that name arbitrarily.
MARCHAE: ok nevermind this is getting to far off the rails.
CLINT: It is, stay contained
MARCHAE: you asked about Black Widow/ ScarJo… is that her name?
CLINT: Yes
MARCHAE: YAY ME!  here is why. Now while I think she is absolutely EVERYTHING in this movie she may not come near me . 1. if you remember I think I asked you every time she was on screen if she was in a romantic relationship with the person she was engaging in dialogue with to me that is problematic as a superhero  she is absolutely stunning...  she would probably be too busy seducing the criminal, you, me, my momma and my grandmother... 
CLINT: So because she's pretty she can't save you
MARCHAE: NOW she's beyond pretty and I'm not entirely sure what that next step up from beyond pretty is but it is quite confusing why she works so hard to seduce EVERYONE. Its not a dig I just need her to stay focused on saving me. NOW she is also badass and she can fight and this combination of factors is easily why I named her Madam Hot Sauce (also to get the names straight because they all start with black) 
CLINT: She is focused! she flippy kicks bab guys. You gotta focus on that
MIRI: Marchae, I approve of your brother
K: She also tazes them!
Tumblr media
MARCHAE: She's hot and I think she's too self-aware of it to be terribly effective.. .NOW  NOW come back
MIRI: DO NOT BLAME NATASHA ROMANOV FOR THE ACTIONS OF THE PATRIARCHY AND WHAT SHE WAS RAISED TO BE SHE IS DOING HER BEST and also remind me to show you her introduction in the first Avengers film where we see how deliberately she uses the way men view her to her advantage in her SUPER SECRET AND IMPORTANT SPY WORK TO SAVE THE DAMN WORLD
K: I TOLD YOU TO SEE WINTER SOLDIER MARCHAE
But seriously, she’s so great in Winter Soldier. The best relationship in the MCU to date is still Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff, Workplace Proximity Acquaintances.
It has Robert Redford in it. I feel like that’s an incentive you’ll care about.
ALSO like half of my final paper in Story Structures was about Winter Soldier.
CLINT: There are only two
MARCHAE: Madam Hot Sauce as I will continue to call her (there were like six blacks- we can cover that in a moment) from here on out with her saucy self DOES NOT HAVE A SUPER POWER 
So her super power is to be sexy and have a raspy voice that I can only dream of achieving when I have a chest cold?  DOES NOT COMPUTE when I am trying to get saved one swift kick to her sternum and she's dead  and so am I
CLINT: She's a highly skilled spy
MARCHAE: so Madam Hot Sauce is off the list of people who can save me.. .
I AM ALSO A HIGHLY SKILLED SPY!!!!! You know what I am I am not? I am NOT A SUPER HERO
CLINT: That's cause your skills aren't that high
MARCHAE: **SIDE EYE*** LOL 
CLINT: Nor are you a spy
MARCHAE: I do a mean job ear hustling!  and I feel like a spy when I take lowkey photos of people 
BOOM
CLINT: And reading upside down
MARCHAE: and backwards! but that isn't enough to save the world. Now moving on from Madam Hot Sauce
CLINT: Nope
MARCHAE: Ok Iron Man , also a hard NO . he's kind of arrogant and that just kind of makes me want to say no thank you for your services to prove a point... and he "tries" to be funny (and he is... but when saving my life that crap isn't cute!!)  now more specifically...  HE GETS HIT IN THE CHEST AND WE'RE OUT
Tumblr media
CLINT: He is he is in Drake mode this movie
MARCHAE: Look that man does the most
CLINT: But it's not easy to hit in the chest
MARCHAE: and one should not be able to rip out your chest light and the whole ship go crashing 
but it was easy FOR AN ANT (we are going to address that ant) TO DO IT
HARD FREAKING PASS on IRON MAN!!!
K: EXCUSE YOU (shameless plug for some of my older culture writing), Iron Man is arguably the Avenger with the greatest track record of rigorous self-reflection and aggressive course-correction. I like Clint Barton but he can go fuck himself for his self-righteousness in the Raft.
As for Ant-Man, he got flushed out pretty fast, so no serious harm there.
CLINT: Nobody got it out though
MARCHAE: CAPTAIN AMERICA DID AT THE END 
K: WITH AN UNBREAKABLE SHIELD DESIGNED BY TONY’S FATHER AND FORGED FROM THE SAME METAL THAT BLACK PANTHER’S ARMOR IS MADE OF
CLINT: It's his movie
MARCHAE: I DON'T GIVE A RATS CRACK!!! this is about who can save me in a fight and frankly I don't feel comfortable with any of them!!!  and they've got the nerve to be RECKLESS and INCOMPETENT  ALSO SOME OF THEM HAVE NO POWER!!! 
CLINT:  Their power lies within
MARCHAE: Stop it! LOL! not when I am under fire 
the power needs to lie with...out(???) ok I am not done because i did think about this and I am not kidding 
CLINT: But they are highly trained individuals
MARCHAE: I literally just groaned out loud 
CLINT: #skills
MARCHAE: #callsupermanifimintrouble...#please
CLINT: And here's the thing you don't need powers to be great
MARCHAE: YOU DO NEED POWERS TO LIVE in my SCENARIO of MY LIFE being in DANGER
CLINT: You just have to have a desire to help to be a hero
MARCHAE: I swear next time I  see you I am going to kick you in the ankle.. .I really did fail you when we were youth. So back to my scenario... Black Panther (I think is his name) 
CLINT: Those ladies in that car i helped didn't care if I had powers
MARCHAE: May also NOT save me
OH MY GOD 
Tumblr media
CLINT: Why not?!?!?!
MARCHAE: That is truth... you did save the ladies in the car but guess what you don't live in a world (real life) that requires one to have superpowers to save people... the FICTIONAL world we live in where MY life is the Scenario requires that you have them  
and WHY NOT? you told me the man has no superpowers instead he has "enhancements" but can fly and has claws. NOPE
CLINT: He can't fly
MARCHAE: Ok so there we go...  point proven. trotting right along like my name is madam hot sauce jr.
K: But T’Challa A) has armor that can shrug off bullets from a helicopter gunship, and B) does have powers, comparable to Cap’s. We don’t know the MCU’s version of the details yet (February 2018!), but we see that he’s superhuman from his jump in the second-act fight with Bucky, and also just the fact that he goes toe-to-toe with Bucky more successfully than Nat or Sharon.
CLINT: But the thing is although they are super it's not the powers that make them super
Wouldn't he be sir hot sauce
MARCHAE: **Looks around the room in shock***(re: super powers making them super)
I said my name!
K: This is not a very scientific etymology, Marchae. The “super” in superhero applies to the “hero,” not the details of their heroism.
CLINT: Oh
MARCHAE: There are only three more I think 
CLINT: I thought you meant black panther
MARCHAE: Don C's character
CLINT: War machine
MARCHAE: YES! I was typing that one 
CLINT: No powers
MARCHAE: Ok so see all the crap I typed above..he has a suit.. that’s not cute and not entirely useful if a more powerful superhero came along. does not make me feel safe at all  
K: A of all, you keep making it sound like the armor is literally a tin can, but within the power hierarchy so far established by the MCU, Tony’s is the pinnacle of human weapons technology, and Rhodey’s isn’t that far behind. There aren’t like a hundred Visions walking around who make the armor totally obsolete.
Second and more seriously, I really think that at least in this movie Rhodey is the most clear-headed non-android Avenger. Even Nat’s perspective isn’t as grounded as his because she’s spent a lot of time hanging around Thor and the Hulk. That physical therapy scene at the end is one of the best and most important in Civil War. He knows he’s right, but he isn’t bitter about it. Steve’s particular Bucky crisis didn’t fit neatly into the lines drawn by the Accords, but nothing about it changes the hard truths of the policy problem. The world changed. Because the Avengers changed it. And only Team Iron Man was willing to accept the consequences of their own actions and change with it.
Captain America
CLINT: Powers
MARCHAE: Thanks but no thanks... Someone with a single strong arm would come along and it'd all go to crap NOPE. he's not focused and while he seems loyal.. I am gonna take a hard pass on that one 
CLINT: You mean Buck
MARCHAE: I am referring to one named Buckey
Tumblr media
CLINT: Lol
His homie
Bff
MARCHAE: I don't care if it is his mother!!!!  NO you may ALSO NOT SAVE ME! YOU AREN"T FOCUSED!!!! 
I think I got the entire team
CLINT: He was
Falcon?
MARCHAE: Yeah on his own issues NOT MINE 
K: Although I love Steve Rogers, and I think (not that this is at all an original position) that he’s one of our most important high-profile pop culture examples of a character who is both virtuous and interesting (contra the conventional wisdom that terrible people or at least assholes are inherently more fascinating in fiction than simply good people), I agree that this movie doesn’t do enough to justify his positions. I guess it’s a testament to the direction and especially the performance, and of course to audience goodwill banked over the course of the MCU, that he still somehow manages to be the default protagonist of Civil War for most people. But as in many things, most people are wrong.
Oh falcon the one with the retractable wings that got shot down? 
CLINT: Ant man
MARCHAE: that guy? himANT MAN SWEET BABY JESUS AND DO NOT SAY THE OTHER ONE 
K: Paul Rudd can’t help but be charming but I’m never going to find Ant-Man’s power set particularly cool, and the best part of Ant-Man, the movie, is far and away Michael Peña.
CLINT: He didn't get shot down
K: Yeah, Falcon dodged Vision’s energy beam, that’s how War Machine got shot down instead
MARCHAE: if you do I swear I will disown you what happened that took his suit ? 
CLINT: Hawkeye?
MARCHAE: HE’S A MALE KATNISS EVERDEEN! NO !!!! What is wrong with you? DUDE HAS AN ARROW There’s only room for one Katniss Everdeen! 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
CLINT: Why are you so mean to them.
K: CLINT make your sister read Matt Fraction’s Hawkeye run. If nothing else she’ll appreciate Kate Bishop.
And MARCHAE, if we’re going to talk about important woman archers in YA literature, Katniss Everdeen is preceded by DECADES by Susan Pevensie in The Chronicles of Narnia. Also, isn’t dismissing Hawkeye because “he’s a male Katniss Everdeen” like saying Katniss is redundant because “she’s a female Robin Hood”?
Spider Man
MARCHAE: I am not mean to them I am just expressing why they do not make me feel safe in my fictitious world. 
I would not feel safe
CLINT: I would
They would die to protect people
MARCHAE: Also I am going to gloss over Spider Man right now because he is MY ALL TIME LEAST FAVORITE SUPERHERO EVER IN THE HISTORY OF ALL SUPER HEROES EVER!!
MIRI: Readers you can expect a post where Marchae and I FIGHT ABOUT THIS A LOT in the future
They wanted to sign a treaty because they weren't doing their jobs properly 
and frankly the Toddler Robot Jarvis and Madam Hot Sauce were the only ones who felt that this was an actual thing to be concerned about
CLINT: They were doing what they set out to do
MARCHAE: so while they may not have superpowers if I just had to have someone save me I would choose them 
CLINT: That was kinda the point
MARCHAE: no they were being reckless general ross said so 
CLINT: So you would pick a spy and baby robot
MARCHAE: yes... 
CLINT: That's cause he hates the hulk
MARCHAE: they are reasonable and aside from the fact that she would eventually seduce everyone around me and he would just walk through walls for no reason.. Yes the hulk was NOT in this film let's not bring outsiders into this discussion… gets too fuzzy 
CLINT: Density shift. Well that's his link to it all/ His daughter is the hulks boo
MARCHAE: The Toddler Robot's daughter is Hulks GF? 
CLINT: No Ross's daughter
Tumblr media
MARCHAE: This is worse than a daytime soap opera I swear!!!!!! 
CLINT: #60yearsofstories
MARCHAE: #toomuchplaying
MIRI: They have barely talked about the movie at all. This is basically just Marchae being unnecessarily salty about the quality of the heroes in an arbitrary external situation. I’m so mad and I love it. 
KRIS: AS AM I
Tumblr media
Part 2 coming Thursday! In the meantime, you can follow us on Twitter.
