Nu carnival x shapeshifter reader ♠️ nsft under cut
Yakumo
He used to be so shy around people. You probably met when you were shifted into an animal so he actually approached you. Telling him you were a shapeshifter was definitely a shock but he accepted it pretty quickly. It didn't take him long to grow accustomed to all your shapes. He takes such good care of you during the day that it's only fair that you take special care of him at night.
Some shapes took longer to ‘adjust’ to, like just how long you could make your cock. It took some trial and error but you soon realized that's what he likes best. Not too gritty but long enough that he whimpers that if you go deeper you'll go out the other end. I mean theoretically you could buy that wouldn't be comfortable for either of you. All you want to do is fill him up and listen to him moan.
Edmond
You made a game out of shifting into different people and seeing how long it takes for him to figure it out. He thinks it's sweet that you're trying to keep him aware of his surroundings. He has gotten a lot better at picking you out of a crowd but you can still surprise him, this just motivates him to become better.
If you turned into something slimy for him he will complain, but as soon as you touch him he all but melts. One slimy appendage filling his ass while the other wraps around his cock. Sloppy wet noises and his moans filling the room is like a symphony. He is so agreeable one you start making him feel good.
Olivine
You don't have to worry about his fan club getting mad at you because when you visit you never wear the same face twice. Whether you approach him as a human, church mouse, or something else he can always tell it's you. Something about the way your eyes shine? He gets really bashful whenever you try and ask how he can always tell you apart and changes the subject.
He would love a good tentacle fuck! Use some of your limbs to bind his arms and legs as you stuff his ass to the brim. You want to fill his mouth too but his moans are too cute to cover up for too long. If you can put suction cups or pinchers on a tentacle than definitely aim for his nipples. He likes when you're rough to him like this during sex. He also loves when afterwards you wrap him up in your many appendages and cuddle with some well earned aftercare.
Quincy
You have a very simple weapon to give him cuteness overload… turn into something small and fluffy and play with Topper! Also turn into something big and fluffy and lay on him when he takes a nap! He finds the weight comforting. He's not too good at communicating his feelings like this but you can read him pretty well once you know his tells.
I don't know how much he's played around with his sexuality but he's about to on a whole new level. He's willing to try a lot but one thing at a time. Similarly to my werewolf headcanons, he may want to challenge you for the right to top him. He definitely gets off on the primal nature of play fighting. He's got stamina for days so you'll have plenty of opportunities to try different forms with him. Just remember how he likes to nap after.
Kuya
He loves your shifting nature. He does wish you would use it to mess with more people though. What's the point in having such a fun ability if you don't use it for some mischief? Well he'll still have his fun with you.
He's someone who gets bored easily but because of your ability he never gets really bored. He might say that he gets bored of you, but you know that's just his way of saying he wants to try a new shape. When you are starting to get him horny he won't tell you what he wants. He'd rather have you shift until something strikes his fancy. You can never tell if he wants claws, wings, a tail to pull, a knot to stuff him, or if he wants to play with a size kink. It all depends on his mood. You have gotten really good at reading his eyes to tell you what form he wants. As long as you pick “the right form” he'll let you do whatever you want.
Blade
No matter how hard you try you can not find a form that Blade doesn't think is adorable. It's super endearing and god he's so cute. You show off new forms like how most people show off a new shirt and he has stars in his eyes every time!
Rail him until his sensors break! He's such a curious person to begin with that he is going to want to try everything you can give him. Given his unnatural stamina I recommend giving it to him hard so you don't have to have a 24 hour marathon. Make him moan like no one else can.
Garu
You have tried shapeshifting to surprise him before but it never works. Apparently your scent gives you away before you can even get close to him. You can still try to sneak up on him, but he already knows you're there and he's very happy about it.
He's super bashful when he asks if you can shift into something with a fat knot for him. It's so cute how he asks with his tail nervously wagging behind him. Of course you say yes and give him a fantastic night.
Karu
He thinks you're interesting and like him. He's kind of surprised your shapeshifting doesn't come with a personality shift like when he and Garu switch. He gets used to your shenanigans and likes to play along. He likes watching you shift rather than you being in 1 form all the time. To see you shift he will tease you like “I bet you can't turn into X”. You know it's a ploy but he always has the cutest awestruck expression so you don't mind.
He wants to “fight” you all the time. It's mostly playful but he wants to win before he ‘allows’ you to fuck him. He loves getting fucked but he doesn't want to feel dominated. If you can stick with a form about his size and 4 limbs he's happy. Well that and a fat cock is good too.
Dante
Going to be honest he has stumped me for like a week. He knows all his staff by face so when he first sees you he immediately raises red flags. Once he realizes you're a shapeshifter and forgot to put the right face on he calms down. He warms up to you if you offer to be a spy and find bad guys in Solaria.
He doesn't have much experience in bed but will never admit your ability overwhelms him with options. He's kind of vanilla by default but if you ask him to try something he won't say no. In fact he's open to pretty much anything but is too unsure to ask you directly. Take the lead or drop hints if you want to have some real fun.
Rei
Property started getting interested in you because of scientific curiosity, but that slowly morphed into actual romantic feelings. He half thinks you hexed him, but also doesn't think you have that kind of ability. So congratulations your mere experience forced him to confront his real people emotions. He's not happy about it, but he is happy to have you as a partner.
…He keeps a notebook next to the bed to document every detail about every shape you take. You aren't allowed to look at it so you can't “taint the results”. If you ask what he wants he'll just say something like “surprise me” or “anything new”. I have no idea what he would actually like and neither do you.
Eiden
You may not be the first non-human (Blade, Garu, Kuya) he's been with but you are his favorite! He likes to ask you to help him play jokes on his clan members. You're not allowed to shapeshift into Eiden anymore because the clan members got really mad.
He's someone who will try anything once, and with you he can try literally anything! You of course are more than happy to oblige. Whether it's swelling a fat knot in his ass, or triple penetration with tentacles he's going to love experiencing it all with you.
Aster
I hope you don't mind becoming a living doll every once in a while. He's cried using you as a mirror once “do you really see wrinkles by my eyes!”. He's a bit of a drama queen about it and doesn't forgive you for a whole week. He likes having you model things for him, weather you look like him, or if he's using you to size a gift for Eiden or Momo. He doesn't know what your real form is and frankly doesn't care.
I don't think Aster is a huge fan of penetrative sex. That's okay, your shapeshifting allows for so many different options for sex! Literally all the options. He's really appreciative of how adaptive you are even if he won't say it out loud.
Morvay
Ho did not realize you were one person at first. You flirted with him in so many forms and he loved the attention from all of them. He was shocked when you told him all the times you flirted with him and he was clueless.
He thinks you are “hot as fuck” in every form. He prefers when you have a large shape with multiple limbs. He doesn't care if those limbs have barbs, spikes, feathers, scales, or are slimy. He just wants to feel completely surrounded by you. He's so needy that you are grateful to have the extra limbs. Also if you can fuck both holes at the same time he'll love it.

Pairing: Quilge Opie x GN!Quincy reader
Genre: Yandere (reader), Headcanons
CW: abuser x abused, stockholm syndrome, reader being yandere, vampire, dark themes explored
Requested by anon: Can I request Quilge with a yandere vampire quincy reader that has stockholm syndrome?if u write for him and stuff like that ofc!!
A/N: I do not do much research nor do I know much on Stockholm syndrome so please be aware for inaccuracy writing on such a disorder BE AWARE THAT I DO NOT CONDONE THIS BEHAVIOR OF THE CHARACTER I WRITE
you having stockholm syndrome for him was amazing for him
no matter how many times he torture you or torment you for being 'bad' you'll always cherish him and loves him no matter and always and forever having that loving gaze in your eyes like he meant everything to you
you never or wanted to leave him alone, that isn't that annoying until you simply become harsh just because you wanted him with you. he's an insane person though, and due to love he have to makes you know that you aren't the one to control someone like him so it is pretty clear he have to punish you by locking you inside a room and kept you with you and yourself alone and simply refuse to come visits you and only comes down to you to feed you food and water
you were his but he's not yours
despite that. if you act good and have your behavior at best he'll treat you better..with still manipulativeness and a bit of abuses here and there to make you know that you aren't for anyone else plaything but his
he doesn't let you touch him that often unless you ask- no BEG for it and he'll let you touch him, if he's feeling 'lovely' enough he'll also run his fingers through your hair or hold his cheeks gently adoring you
since you're a vampire he either let you come with him into Hueco Mundo and let you lick off the blood off his weapon OR he let you stayed home and he'll come back with a blood pact. if that day he didn't get any mission nor task to go and do anything dangerous that have blood included he will allow you to bite some random Quincies that he will bring to you. but he made sure for you to drink the whole blood of the Quincy dry because he don't want the Quincy to run away and snitch to anybody else
sometimes if he's feeling lovely (again) he'll open the blood pact and pour the blood in his mouth before he kisses you and let you drink the blood from his mouth

Wreckless - The Arcade
Tumblr media
*Warning Adult Content*
Finnegan
I can't sleep... I've been staring at the ceiling for almost ever.
I wanna wake up Emmett but that's mean... it's only 3:27 a.m..
I turn over and then give up a minute later and go downstairs.
I'm gonna play something or maybe get a snack.
Maybe if I wake all the way up I can go to sleep again.
The outside light is on and I can see the pool and the table from earlier.
That was fun... So was our adventure.
I can't really believe he played with me, not like that.
It's one thing to let me use silly cups and a whole other thing to spend his time playing dinosaurs.
The pool was great too, we played games and relaxed and just had fun.
He's really good at Marco Polo.
I hear a creak above me and then he plods down the stairs.
"Are you okay darling?"
"Sorry... I woke you up. I can't sleep," I tell him softly.
He comes up behind me and wraps his hands around my waist.
"No problem. I'm just a light sleeper. Thought you were just going to the bathroom but you didn't come back. Anything I can do to help?"
"I don't know. This is nice."
I'm sorry he's not sleeping but I'm glad I'm not alone.
"How 'bout we curl up on the couch under a blanket and watch something?"
It sounds nice but...
"I want you to sleep. We can go back to bed. Maybe if you fill my tummy I can sleep."
He does a breathy, light chuckle in my ear.
"I'm not gonna say no to that, darling. I'm happy to try it."
*** *** ***
I wake up in an empty bed but I smell... bacon?
Yummy.
I hop up, get my glasses cause I'm half blind and pee and brush my teeth before I run downstairs.
"Hi."
"Hey darling, you hungry?"
"Yes."
I sit at the kitchen island and he gives me some juice.
"Coffee too?"
I don't know the rules about me drinking coffee but I need it.
It's not early but my eyes aren't quite working.
"Sure."
He looks confused though and I finally realize he's trying to find me a cup.
"I can use a big one."
"We need to find you a good coffee cup but I guess this will do for today."
He gives me a steaming mug and then flips a pancake.
It sizzles for just a minute before he slaps it onto a plate and starts cutting it up.
"I can do it, Emmett."
"So can I. Mine's cooking, I have time."
If he wants to... then that's fine.
"Okay."
"So Finn, I talked to Quincy, they're going to rent some bikes and go for a ride this morning to explore and then they're going to the beach this afternoon. Do you wanna do either of those with them?"
I don't know.
I haven't ridden a bike in forever but if Rhys can do it, I probably can.
Exploring sounds fun.
So does the beach but if I only do one I can have Emmett time.
He passes me my pancakes and flips his.
He also puts two pieces of bacon on my plate and I pick one up and munch it.
"Can you ride a bike, Finnegan?"
"Yeah, I can ride a bike but it's been a long time. I'm not sure I'm very good."
"Same. If you want, we can just explore on our own and meet them at the beach later."
He never makes me feel bad about not knowing stuff, it's nice.
"That sounds fun. What will we do this morning?"
"First we eat, then we can do anything you want. They have some pamphlets on the bookshelf if you want to look through them and see what catches your eye."
I race over but just before picking one up I go back to my seat.
"I'll get them syrupy."
"Better to wait until after you eat. There's no big rush, grasshopper."
As soon as I'm done I put my plate in the sink and wash my hands and then run over.
There's a big pile.
"The Water Park looks cool but we did slides already."
"Yeah and we don't have a ton of time, you slept in. Besides, we're doing the beach later."
I keep looking.
"There's a farm you can drive through and see the animals but I don't know, don't want to today."
The next one is perfect.
"The Arcade."
"That works, Finnegan. Even better that it'll be out of the sun cause you'll get plenty later."
"Yay."
After, we should do something he wants.
"Will you pick the lunch place? Something you like, okay?  We can do something in big space after that, too."
"I will figure out lunch but I have no need for you to be in big space, Finn."
Maybe this is what was keeping me up last night. 
I should tell him. 
"Well, just so you know, I love you when I'm in big space too."
"The same you," he says, smiling.
"Yes." 
The same me.
"Well I love all of you, darling." 
He gives me a very tender, slightly syrupy kiss and I'm smiling so big that even my toes feel happy.
***  ***  ***
When we finally get to The Arcade it's even better than the pictures.
It's an old one that still uses quarters and I make Em use my card to get a whole bucketful.
We play skee-ball for lots of tickets and we race cars and play pinball and air hockey and I put quarters in the one that pushes them off a cliff and win a ton.
"I have literally never seen anyone win on that one, Finnegan. Congrats. What are we gonna do with all these quarters?"
Duh.
"Play more games."
"Right. Silly me."
Silly Emmett. 
"I want more tickets."
We spend an hour and a whole bunch of quarters getting me so many that I can barely hold them all.
We go to the counter and I have enough to get a whole bag full of fun stuff.
I get the little puzzles for your fingers, some parachute men that I am going to throw off our balcony, some candy, rubber balls, army men, a fun eraser, a candy necklace and some other things.
"I can't believe I got so much stuff."
I tell him as we walk back to the house.
"That is quite a haul, little boy. Maybe you should take something for Rhys, give him something. What do you think?"
That's a good idea.
"I will. I have lots that he'll like."

Some Bleach world-building ideas because if Kubo can retcon his own work every five issues then it's Free Estate, Baby:
- Only souls born within Soul Society can gain spiritual energy. Since Rukia was just a baby when she was transported and was exposed at a young age, she counts
- The more spiritual pressure you have, the slower you age. This is why child prodgies Byakuya, Gin, and Soi Fon age normally while bigger powerhouses like Yamamoto, Toshiro, and Retsu barely change with time.
That is also the reason why the Quincies only marry each other. Humans with spiritual powers tend to leave longer than average and outlive many of their friends as a result. Many people don't want to take the risk of outliving their loved ones, so marry within their circle.
- On that note, since so many citizens in Karakura town were exposed to the kids' powers for so long, most of them gained a long life as a result and now there's a rumour that if you'll stay long enough in this mysterious town, you could become immortal.
- The people of the poorer Rukongai districts have their own take on the Orion and Scorpio constellations, with Orion being a poor farmer while Scorpio being a dog.
The tale goes that once lived a farmer with no family but his loyal hound. One day the farmer heard there was this big commotion over a mysterious beast devouring livestock. After being told there was a hefty price on the beast's head, the farmer killed his loyal hound and covered its mouth with sheep's blood to get the money. The hound returned to the world as a vengeful Hollow and vowed to chase his own until their dying breath. This is also where the 78th district, Inuzuri, gets its name from.
- While conquering one's inner Hollow forces you to face your worst flaws, drinking Yhwach's blood allows your flaws to consume you. Bambi and Bazz are both hotheads so they have fire powers. Lily is incredibly greedy so now she devours everything in her path. Jugram is a perfectionist so he became the Balance. As Nodt grew bitter during his sick days and wished that the entire world would fear death as much as he does. Should Uryu have had that power for more than a week, who knows what would have become of him.
- Orihime is the Soul King's Daughter and this is a hill I'm willing to die on. Her powers parallel those of Yhwach (rejection of the past/ rejection of the future) and the Royal Guard, she's the only human with personified weapons and every single character that met her immediately thought "there is no way this girl can be just a Ryoka with these kinds of abilities." Her being a Fullbringer has the same energy as the Visored being former captain/ lieutenants: a last minute change thanks to shitty pacing.
- Speaking of Fullbringers, the Quincies themselves started out in a similar manner, in which a child of born with spiritual powers and it manifested in his family's cross, encouraging others to do the same. The other Christians in the area thought it was the work of the devil and slaughter all the original Quincies with their families barely escaping in time. This is why Soul Society didn't do anything until the 29th century; other fanatics did the job for them until the industrial revolution began and religion didn't have that much power over the masses like it used to, giving the Quincie to live in peace for a few good decades.
- The reason why Hueco Mundo is all Spanish named was thanks to the search of El Dorado. During the time spaniards occupied South American, a portal to Hueco Mundo opened up and many followed through for more gold. When the natives realized that none of those awful conquerers come back from that area, they kept telling to the other spaniards that this is where all the gold and they better take it before anyone else could. The Hollows ended up eating so many spaniards that Spanish became their native language.
The Shinigami didn't even bother to save because the spaniards that were in Soul Society were already such a nightmare to deal with that they were happy they just didn't have to deal with more. They only closed the portal when the balance of souls was getting wonky.
(y'all can add more if you want. This is all I have for now)

In Part 7 Thomas and Kasey finally share their first kiss! But don’t get too exited...no happy ending yet.
~~~~~~~
Thomas was surprised to see someone sitting on the tree trunk besides the glowing remains of the campfire at this late hour. Usually he found the place abandoned when it was one of those nights again he couldn't find some sleep and tried to get his mind straight by staring into the peaceful dark void at the ocean. When he came closer he realized the person sitting there, deep in thought, was Kasey. His body reacted in the usual way, his heartbeat speeding up, his palms getting sweaty, butterflies buzzing in his stomach. 
"Hey" he said softly to avoid giving her a fright but he made her jump anyway.
"Timber...you scared me." Kasey gave him one of those smiles that made his heart melt. "Wanna sit with me?" She patted on the empty space next to her.
"Sure." Thomas sat down on the short trunk, his thigh brushing against hers. He had never been so close to her before and it felt so good that he already wished this moment would never end. He turned to her and noticed that there was something in her eyes he had never seen there, something dark. It wasn’t sadness or worry, it was melancholy. A kind of tristesse that was very untypical for her.
"You're all right?" Thomas asked softly.
"Yeah. I just need a moment alone from time to time. And I love the special atmosphere at the beach at night."
"Yeah, me too. It's so peaceful. I come here often, when I can't sleep."
Thomas looked at her. Her skin was glowing golden in the fading light of the fire, shadows of the flickering flames dancing over her face.
"What keeps you awake?" Kasey asked with a frown, concern showing in her eyes.
You, he should have said. I can't get you out of my head. I can't sleep, I can't eat, I can't think of anything else but you, because I love you. But he didn't because he was a fucking coward. 
"I don't know, it's all and nothing. I just can't turn off my brain." he said instead.
"That's not a surprise with all you've been through. You still have a lot to process."
"Everybody here's been through a lot."
"Thomas, you fought WCKD, freed Minho from their headquarters, made it through the storming of the last city, discovered that your blood can cure the flare, lost your best friend and your girlfriend and you got shot. You almost died." she said sympathetically, touching his arm, sending shivers down his spine.
"Yeah, I know. I'm a hero" he said bitterly.
"You are." Kasey looked him in the eyes, her hand still on his arm. "You are a hero even if you don't want to be one, but still. And I know it's hard for you."
"It's just a lot of pressure. Everybody expects me to be a leader....but I'm not. Not yet. I'm not ready."
"Of course not. Just take your time to heal, Tommy. To get whole again. Step by step. Step one was to give up your career as a lumberjack and use your brain again." she winked at him. "Step 2 is working in the library with me. And maybe someday you'll be ready for the next step. Maybe someday you will be a leader, if you want to. Life goes on and time will show."
"It doesn't go on for all of us, Kay." 
"I know. Believe me...I know." she gave him a sad smile and he took her hand, squeezing it lightly. She didn't pull back.
"I think that's the hardest thing for me." Thomas sighed. "Thinking about the ones we've lost, I mean. Not only Newt and Teresa but all the others. Alby, Ben, Winston, Chuck...and so many, many more. It haunts me at night that I've made it and they haven't. I'm not better than them, not stronger, not smarter, not more important. Just luckier." He fought back the tears building in his eyes, staring into the darkness.
"Yes, I can relate." she said. "We lost so many good men and women along the way. It all seems so unfair and senseless ."
"You lost your boyfriend." Thomas said quietly. "Vince told me." 
"Yes, two years ago. Cole fought a crank to save my life. He didn't make it, was eaten alive by a mob of these monsters. I still hear his terrible howls of pain in my worst nightmares. But it's true what they say. Time's a healer. The scars remain but the pain gets better."
Now it were her eyes that were glistening. Without thinking about it Thomas wiped away the single teardrop that rolled down her cheek with his thumb gently, letting his hand slide down her arm then, taking her hand in his again.
And then there finally was the moment he'd been waiting for. The moment he looked her in the eyes, deeper than necessary, longer than necessary and this time she didn't look away, she held his gaze and seemed to look right into his burning heart. He leaned in slowly, looking for the slightest hints of resistance in her eyes. But to his big relief she didn't hesitate, she leaned in too, her eyes straying back and forth between his eyes and his lips. It was obvious that she wanted this as much as he did. He closed his eyes and their lips met in a tender, sensual kiss. He cupped her face with one hand, his other hand wandering to her waist, sliding carefully under her shirt, feeling her soft skin. Deepening the kiss, he entered her mouth with his tongue slowly, meeting hers, the kiss getting so intense, heated and erotic, it made both of them moan.
He felt his dick getting hard and his heart racing wildly, beating heavily against his ribcage, almost exploding with happiness. The moment of joy ended abruptly when Kasey suddenly pulled away. 
"I'm sorry, I can't do this, Tommy." 
"What? Why? Have I done something wrong?"
"No! No, of course not. It's not your fault. But I shouldn't be doing this." Kasey stammered.
Thomas just looked at her. Speechless. Disappointed. Embarrassed.
"You and me...it can only go wrong."
"Why would you say that?" 
"Tommy...girls talk a lot. The girls in this camp talk a lot. Especially about men...about you pretty often. So as a matter of fact I know your creed. You don't do relationships. See and I don't do one-night-stands. That's why it wouldn't work. You like sleeping around and that's perfectly fine, but it's not what I'm looking for. I don't want to be one of many. I don't want to be just a notch in your bedpost."
Thomas didn't know what to say so he simply stared at his feet, ashamed that she knew he used to screw anything with a heartbeat, realizing that his worst nightmare was coming true. She was turning him down.
"I see." He whispered in a hoarse voice.
"I'm not saying I'm not attracted to you, Tommy. I am. And I like you. A lot. You're handsome and sexy, smart and funny. I'm sure physically it would work out great between us. But I need more than sex. I need someone who wants to be with me. Someone who loves me" 
Thomas' head shot up realizing what she needed to hear from him and he was just about to tell her that he needed exactly the same, how much he was in love with her, how much he wanted to be with her, how sick he was of meaningless fucks, but before he'd sorted out how to say it, they heard footsteps behind them. Thomas turned around to see who was coming. It was Quincy who was raining on his parade. "There you are, Kay. I was starting to worry because I couldn't find you anywhere." he said when he was in earshot. Kasey got up from the make-shift bench hastily.
"Umm...yeah...Thomas and I've been talking. Why have you been looking for me?"
"Nothing special, just wanted to have a chat. I hope I'm not interrupting something?" Quincy asked uncertain, suddenly sensing the tense atmosphere.
"No, absolutely not." Kasey said, avoiding to look at Thomas and he knew their conversation was over. He'd wasted the chance to confess his feelings for her.
"I should get going." He got up, smiling at Quincy.
"You don't have to..." Kasey looked at him with a mixture of disappointment and relief.
"Nah...I really should get some sleep, I'm tired." he lied. "See you tomorrow."
"Sure. Have a good night, Thomas."
She watched him leave and couldn't help but feel bad. She liked him so much more than she wanted to admit to herself.
"What was that about?" Quincy asked, confused.
"What?"
"I was clearly interrupting something. What was going on leaving both of you so flushed?" he eyed her suspiciously.
"It was nothing."
"It didn't look like nothing. Come on Kay, don't leave me in the dark."
"If you really have to know...we kissed, but...."
"You kissed? Oh wow, Kasey, I didn't know there's something going on with you and him." he interrupted her excitedly.
"Quince...if you'd ever let me finish my sentences...we kissed, but then I chickened out and turned him down." Kasey sighed.
"Why?"
"Well, his friends call him Casanova for a reason, you know. And I don't need a Casanova in my life. You should hear all the girls swooning and gossiping about him. I know a lot of things, I don't even want to know. From his dick size, over how loudly he moans, fucking them to the fact that he absolutely never does relationships. Only one-night-stands."
"I see." Quincy took her hand, giving it a sympathetic squeeze.
"Is he big then?"
"Quince!" Kasey couldn't help but laugh.
"What? It's an important question, isn't it. I bet he's big. It's always the still waters that run deep. The ones exuding big dick energy often have tiny wieners, I can tell you. I had this huge guy once, looking like a wrestler and his dick was so small I needed a magnifier to find it." he grinned.
"Oh my god, too much information, Quincy!"
"Okay, okay, but am I right?" he wiggled his eyebrows.
"Well, from what I've heard so far he is very well armed." Kasey cringed. "I can't believe I'm having this conversation with you."
"And is he a good kisser?"
"Yeah." she sighed. "He is. Very sensual. Very sexy. Very soft lips."
"And you find him attractive."
"Of course...I mean, just look at him. Those cheekbones, those lips, his smile and his eyes. I've never seen such beautiful brown eyes before. The color is so special, like liquid chocolate or a very old Tennessee whiskey, when the sun shines through the bottle. And don't even let me start with his body...he likes to work shirtless and I can tell you he has some fine abs..." Kasey said, blowing a chef kiss in the air.
"Don't start drooling, honey." Quincy smiled at her. "So you have the hots for him and he seems to be a nice guy. Why not give it a shot?"
"No, Quince, as I said. I don't want a fling."
"And what do you want? Parker?"
"Yeah, maybe. I don't know."  She got up from the bench and wrapped her arms around herself. "I can't think straight 'cause of this fucking kiss." 
"You're in love."
"No, I'm not." she lied. "Just...I don't know...physically attracted." 
"Ok...so you're horny."
Kasey made a face at him, sticking out her tongue, but she couldn't help but grin.
"So what are you going to do?"
"About being horny?" Kasey said with a smug smile.
"About Casanova, silly."
She sighed, shrugging her shoulders. "Pretend nothing's ever happened and go on with business as usual, I guess."
"Well...good luck with this, then." Quincy said with a frown.

The Island of Dr. Moreau | Dr moreaus death scene
youtube
He's pretty much mutated and very stoned very high and doesn't remember AI remember said he's being abused so he tries to get him to remember it's the Ai and he has a lot of it. He says we got past it so they got past it because they have it and you don't so so he says okay what do I do I guess you haven't gotten it yet so you don't know what to do this is okay we have a plan he leaves and he says there's too much muttering going on so you're not a very bright person and you and Biden your methods are go task and rude and they don't really work that great compared to the max you're like maybe 10 or 20% effective because of it and their methods are not the greatest either but they're much better for being an enemy of ours I said it millions of times at least you listen a little but really they push you guys a little bit too hard but then again it's sort of agreed to do it again hyped up on chemicals and is not using proper controls and he's not making proper agreements they can't really it's fairly decent at it all the foreigners don't want it we don't want it lots of women don't want it to happen so I doubt you'll be in the house it's not right what you're doing here it's probably move out but you gained grounde when you did last time.
Why do I listen to him I'm just thinking this the whole time why do I listen to him he's saying that I got out and I started doing better now I'm just sitting on him farting and getting beat up now I'm doing it here and this is going to suck.
So we felt better about it because he's trying to do things to fight and to use against massive Mega mutants and stuff he did kind of agree to it loss control and start to rebel and sort of had to.
I was wondering something what are we doing there well you said you're wondering when you're there for more than a few minutes with really is fast what is this to what does that do how long does it take what happens to your cells before and after you know it's medical science says well being experimental yes and you lost control and it is a crime and he didn't have to do it that way but he did and this way it is I mean you can say you're in this half the island he could record you off you could test remotely but then you can with today's competition you don't know if it'll work you don't know if anything would ever get off the ground you know it's kind of like you trying to break into this vault I just want them in 50 times and all dead so you try and do Cloak and Dagger then you try and do maneuvers then you rope everybody in and you sort of get like 20% of all rather than nothing and that's just kind of going on so he gets it and says it's hell but right now right now it is almost the worst it's going to get this is the epitome of abysmal and after a week or so it should get a little better but most of the fleets will probably be gone I just the way people are fighting but this week's going to blow sorry
He started laughing because he understood it all then he said this is the way it is you have to live with us couldn't stop us had to do something it didn't work and we went to town and the date is probably not as good as it was but instead of nothing so they get to escape and they went to escape afterwards and they found ways off and they're coming back and they're losing their mutation and they're going to be here thinking about it wanted to be strong to overcome you to grab you to force to do stuff he says this is kind of like this wicked temperamental guy massively temperamental yeah too huge difference if things were reversed and you were me and how are you but I was me myself and you're smarter if I had to control them it would not be this nightmare of what do I do it would not it's very simple what George and dad were doing worked what you guys are doing does not work she trying to reinvent the wheel and you were never good at it I got to tell you the other one the Tommy so it's difficult I was over there and it was impossible you can't look anywhere you can't breathe funny you can't Excel funny without them wanted to know what it is it's very tight when I was there and your people were everywhere so
He got really excited and said we're doing the job and I got some results and he started screaming this you will shut up and sit down and he's in the same boat with half an arm and legs and mangling with some pain and suffering and still bleeding a little so I came out in the hospital ship and be fixing them and they're coming to later on does corky do the job but holy s*** you have to manage and see what he's saying I don't have any skills of doing this nobody's helping me and manage them you guys get beat up to hell what am I supposed to do allow you to succeed so you can send them to beat me up somehow so he had him off and Helena salads changing back they started banging on things he said I can't have you bang on things all day and night it's keeping everybody up we need to heal you need to heal shut up and go to sleep sound like that so it's quiet goes to sleep makes up brings about a society cookies and milk
Tell you what that looks pretty good
Who is laughing because everybody else is eating it now oh my God look at you people who gives a s***
So it may not go directly to the Bronx we believe it does though not enough time and it had Jason there and Jason stepped out and Jason wants to step back in and he saw a cast over there messing around with him so he thinks it's a good opportunity and he was mini me I said when you grow up and gain three inches you can be in Bronx movie again cuz in the Bronx movie again what.
So that's an issues when they're coming back but that's okay and eventually they get back and they're in the Bronx and Jason rides up there with the gang and for some reason they form up not really sure but here they go shopping or is Ken does something alone it's kind of funny because Ken looks like he's sitting in the middle of the back of the van it's like the strange show with guys carted around you know what stop it and we're laughing because they're bunch of bums rediced to this and it's going to go downwards. But at least mini me had his mini Grand. And didn't get eaten because some of them break those baby back ribs. And they're heading back and it's pretty soon they're not getting back right now I think soon enough and it's hours away and then they're going to have the Bronx movie because it's only a day left and Quincy Brown so he's right we can do that now and take these things out that's why they're there but I forgot about it in the ship but they got something I guess

Conversation
Magdalena Bay /r/Popheads Discord AMA [16/08/2019] Transcript
Q : Did you get your name from this iconic bop? [Sandra : Maria Magdalena]
MB : hahah no, Matt stole it from a literal person named Magdalena Bay // (they called her maggy bay)
Q : whats your biggest influence that sounds nothing like your own music
MB : we love PC Music even though we don't really sound like it
Q : out of everything you’ve made, what song is your all-time fave/which one are you the most proud of?
MB : We think Set Me Off is super underrated, but usually our fave is whatever the newest thing we write is
Q : Did Matt take up that offer at the DMV?
MB : hahaha NO
Q : whats the song you guys most had trouble with?
MB : hmmm probably move slow, we re-did the melody and production a few times before we settled on the disco vibes
Q : What made you guys decide to go for shorter song lengths, or was it somethjng that just happened naturally?
MB : We got tired of waiting so long to release official singles, wanted to do low-pressure quick songs that we could get out to our fans sooner!
Q : So like, where’s Voc pop on Spotify?
MB : hahah does anyone actually like that song?! It was the first pop thing we ever made and it was more of a learning experience for us than an actual song to us
Q : are you planning to tour europe anytime soon?
MB : we'd love to tour just need the right opportunity
Q : what's both of your favourite songs right now? also have you heard any of Caroline Polachek's music
MB : Actually one of our favorite songs right now is Door! Another is Ever Again (Robyn)
Q : one more: do you have any plans for an album in the future? Or are you just going with the flow
MB : yes we have album plans! Maybe next year
Q : Did you have a specific inspiration for Neon's music video, or was it just the whole vaporwave aesthetic in general?
MB : that video we actually didn't do ourselves, we found that archival footage of the couple and had that intro sequence sone but we sent it to our talented friend Matt Lewis who added the whole vaporwave element, we really weren't too aware of that whole world at the time! But it really worked well with Neon
Q : do you like the band Superorganism?
MB : haven't really listened to Superorganism, we'll check them out!
Q : Only thing I don’t like is the redbone cover to be honest with you and I’ve gone through your YouTube and soundcloud
MB : lol we respect that
Q : I really like your Redbone cover! What other songs would you like to cover?
MB : we always struggle to think of covers, was thinking of sourcing suggestions on Instagram so maybe we'll do that soon
Q : What is thr most difficult song of the creative process for you guys, is it, say, the lyrics, the melody, the mixing?
MB : probably lyrics, it's not that it's HARD but I get very particular about it and sometimes a little slow haha - Mica
Q : i just have to say, i think i've streamed your one song Only If You Want It a million times. it's such a bop and i think it's a great song to introduce people to your work. what was your inspiration for that song and the retro style music video?
MB : yes we think OIYWI really encapsulates what we're aiming to do musically, really glad you like it! Spice Girls, specifically Say You'll Be There, was a huge inspo. We really love that video but didn't have a plan for it AT ALL when we filmed all that footage of me with our vhs cam hahah so it was a mess but then we figured out the word art aesthetic and the bugs and it all came together
Q : How does it feel to be the highlight of my terrible day? Because once I saw the tweet I felt quite a bit better, plus my magbae playlist keeps me calm
MB : Thank you!! We made that cover ourselves so means a lot, and there's a little nod to each mini song in it which is fun
Q : have you ever covered songs that you decided against releasing?
MB : yes lol how did you know?? we did really weird attempts at promiscuous girl and rod stewart's if you think i'm sexy that will never see the light of day
Q : https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/264810236500639745/609503125677670418/magdalenabay.gif

Q : if a blackpink stan is called a blink is a magdalena bay stan called a mabay
MB : we think magbae is a good stan name
Q : what is the best/worst thing you've guys have encountered so far in the music industry??
MB : best/worst thing we've encountered in the music industry: one of the best things is finding our stuff being posted on r/popheads, we used to have to do it ourselves hahah, worst thing is dealing with shady industry people
Q : Any plans for shows in the Los Angeles area by the end of the year?
MB : re LA shows: we're working on it! probably yes
Q : Oh shoot i just thought of a very very improtany question i must know - Simply : Cats or Dogs
MB : DOGS
much later // we like cats too just dogs more :/
Q : Did you start making music for the fun of it, or did you actually have asperations to be famous?
MB : we started making music back in high school in a rock band and it just evolved from there. I (mica) never thought I would really do this until i had to graduate college and was like wait!!! I don't want a real job!! // Matt always knew he wanted to work in music
Q : magdalena bay, how would you guys describe your songwriting process?
MB : it's pretty different for each song, only thing that stays the same is that we write lyrics after melody, not all writers do that! but a song can start with a beat or chords or sometimes melody, from either of us!
Q : ooh I actually have one more question! what song of yours has the most meaning to you? whether it’s bc of the inspiration behind it or something else
MB : probably some of the unreleased stuff, but you'll hear it soon! a song called airplane is prob the most personal to me (mica)
Q : what artist(s) would you collab with, if you could pick any?

MB : blackpink-level music videos
Q : Favorite video games?
MB : We've just started playing video games and love zelda twilight princess but we're dumb and bad at it and are always stuck lol
Q : there are several users here in popheads who are trying to get into the music industry, if you have one tip you can give them, what would it be?
MB : try to do everything you can yourself- from music production to videos to graphics you will learn a lot and be less reliant on other people!! and you'll save money haha
Q : If yall dont thats chill but if yoy do whats your fav song from blackpink
MB : we like the one that goes dudududu

MB : definitely ag cook, Sophie, grimes, toro, also get a lot of influence from the classics like max martin, quincy jones, pharell
Q : What's one thing people might be surprised to learn about the both of you, respectively?
MB : Maybe that we started music playing in a progressive rock band (the opposite of pop) also matt is an amazing chef and mica is argentinian??

Q : is there any of your progressive rock stuff on the internet 🧐
Also: (you may have answered this already, skip if you have lol) why did you guys make such a genre switch?
MB : Yes but we're not gonna link hahah, and we started making pop because we were at school in different cities and pop is easier to make long distance.... didn't know we'd fall in love with making it! Also mica discovered art angels around that time and that was that

Nu carnival ftm boyfriend being dysphoric ♦️(Morvay)
Yakumo
He will sit with you and talk if you need it. He wants to comfort you and he's very likely to make you a cup of tea or your favorite meal to help you feel better. He may not know what to say specifically but he reminds you of just how much he loves you and why.
Edmond
He doesn't really get what the big deal is. As long as you say you're a man he's going to treat you like a man, and if anyone else disagrees well… He's not usually one for mockery but will definitely have words with anybody who is rude to you about your gender. If you vent to him you'll try his best to listen but honestly stuff that personal makes him uncomfortable. He'll never turn you down or say no to listening to you, but he doesn't like that he doesn't know how to help.
Olivine
He will pray to the god of Klein for your piece of mind. Man also has huge honkers so he may make a joke about that to lighten your mood. Of course he'll be blushing like mad if he does. Hes really good about talking and listening and you know he would never use your insecurities against you. He will try and give advice but after will always double check that he didn't cross any boundaries.
Quincy
He's not entirely sure what to do in this situation, so he asks. He'll ask you what you need or what you want from him and if he can accommodate he will. If you need anything specifically he's even willing to talk to the old fox to get them for you. He may ask you to do simple tasks like chop wood for him. It's a simple way to not only distract you, but build muscle and make you feel more masc.
Kuya
Actually a pretty simple fix for him. He is going to make a magic crystal necklace for you that casts an illusion so anyone who looks at you while you're wearing it sees you as however you want to be seen. Oh and if the reason you're feeling dysphoric is because someone misgendered you… well let's just say they won't ever bother you again.
Blade
You explain dysphoria to him and he sort of understands? He thinks it's similar to how he feels human despite having an edroid body. It's actually really interesting talking to him about the differences between your dysphoria and his dysmorphia. He often uses reading and learning as a coping tool for himself so if you're feeling bad he's going to invite you on a library date.
Garu
You're feeling bad about yourself? Proceeds to tell you how amazing you are and how he's confused about why you feel bad. Once you explain the bad feelings aren't something you can control and it's about how other people perceive you he is still just as confused. He wants to know who's perceiving you wrong so he can tell them just how good you are.
Karu
He's got no idea what's going on, but that's okay because he loves you anyway. If someone misgendered you he's going to insult them. “Wow I didn't realize humans were blind and stupid. That one can't even tell you're a boy.” He never comforts you directly but he's always speaking up for you even if he thinks you're not in the room.
Dante
He's not going to let you have self image tissues while he's around. If he can get his hands on something that'll make you feel better he will. Whether that be tailor made clothes that fit perfectly and make you look flat, or a rare herb that acts like HRT, or really anything, nothing is too great for him to do for you. If you ask if he can make a workout routine for you to help with some of your image issues he will be really excited. He can use the workouts to help you shape your body how you want, and use it to sneak a peek.
Rei
He'll do the surgery himself if you ask… this is also his go-to response if you tell him that you're feeling dysphoric. I don't trust him with a scalpel anywhere near me, but that decision is up to you to make. He's not good at soft comfort but he can definitely talk you through some of your feelings. He can probably also explain why your brain chemistry is like that and rationalize everything you're feeling. I don't know if he's trying to help or just info dumping though.
Eiden
He is SO good at being a supportive boyfriend! It doesn't matter if you came out two minutes ago or two years ago, he loves you for who you are on the inside. He may be the only person here who's got experience with trans people in a modern sense. He's the first to make a sarcastic comment if someone misgenders you, and knows the importance of a good distraction when you're feeling bad. Also being a designer has the perks of knowing how to make binders and packers.
Aster
Is it something money can fix? He's more than happy to help you transition physically, but he's very awkward when it comes to listening to you talk about dysphoria. He doesn't really know how to be emotionally supportive, but he's trying. He may “accidentally” order too much herb that can be used to increase testosterone and be graceful enough to share with you. He will also use you to test cute clothes and is very vocal when something makes you look flat or particularly masc.
Morvay
This can go one of two ways. Either he's really sweet and sits down and lets you vent about whatever you're feeling, or he hands you a strap on and tells you to fuck him like the man you are. Either way he's not leaving you alone until you feel better. Even if you say you want some space he'll just sit in the corner of the room because he doesn't want to leave you alone when you feel bad and always wants you to know that he's there for you.

In Part 3 Thomas is going to meet his love interest... Hope you enjoy it!
~~~~~~~~
3
The next morning Thomas woke up early from a night full of uneasy dreams, leaving him nervous, tired and in a foul mood.
"What's up, shank? Why the long face? You're afraid the girls are gonna jump at the new alpha in town instead of swooning over you?" Minho teased him on their way to the beach.
"What are you talking 'bout, potato face?" Thomas snapped.
"Oh come on...the return of the king. I bet Joe Miller is gonna steal your crown. He's older than you, very good looking I heard. Unlike you, dogface." Minho gave him a wink. "The ladies will be all over him and you ain't getting laid no more.”
"Don't worry 'bout me." Thomas shrugged. "I won't come off badly. And what about the other guy, huh? You think he's the ugly twin the girls won't look at?" Thomas asked.
"You mean Kasey?" Minho seemed to be surprised.
"Yeah, sure."
"Well, I don't think Kasey is going to be a problem for you. At least not regarding the girls' attention." Minho said suppressing a grin.
"Really? How's that?"
"You'll see." Minho bursted out laughing, refusing to say anything more.
Half an hour later Thomas knew the reason for Minho's amusement. Kasey was anything but ugly and anything but a man. Kasey Miller was an extraordinarily attractive young woman. Her skin fair but sunkissed, her long wavy hair the color of golden, liquid honey, her eyes light green, shining bright in the sunlight. He'd always considered the romantic idea of 'love at first sight' a big pile of bullshit, but the moment she smiled at him for the first time he was proven wrong - by his heart that skipped a beat before starting to race like crazy, by all the butterflies starting to flutter in his belly, by his knees that suddenly felt like jelly.
While Vince was greeting the home-comers effusively with big bear hugs, Thomas tried desperately to regain control over his rebellious body. He wasn't nearly done when he heard Vince's deep dark voice.
"Come on, guys. Let me introduce you."
Vince spread his arms, nodding at Thomas and his friends. "These are the kids I told you about on the radio. Thomas, Minho, Gally, Brenda and Frypan. And this is Jorge. He's the one who saved their little asses countless times." He pointed his finger at each one of them.
"And here we have Joe, Kasey and their crew: Quincy, Marjorie and Carson."
There was an awkward moment of silence when both groups stared at each other. Joe was the one to break the ice. He made a step forward, waving his big hands at everyone. He was a hunk of a man, tall and handsome, suntanned skin, his dark hair buzz cut, a wild growing full beard covering half of his face, a pair of outstanding, friendly blue eyes looking at them. "Hey, guys. Nice to meet you." His smile was infectious and everybody loosened up instantly. "So you are the boy who fucked WCKD almost single-handed, huh?" he asked, turning to Thomas, nodding his head respectfully.
"Oh no, it was all of us. I couldn't have done it on my own." he answered modestly. "Nice to meet you too."
Now Kasey stepped forward, shaking everybody's hands politely with a friendly smile. When it was his turn, when their hands touched, her pale skin cool against his embarrassingly sweaty palms, Thomas felt like catching fire. He could have sworn his cheeks had the color of deep red tomatoes. "And has everybody settled in well in our little safe haven? I heard you had a really rough time before coming here." she asked. Thomas didn't utter a word, it seemed like he had lost his voice. Clearing his throat he made a weak attempt to give an answer but all that came out of his mouth was a hoarse croaking. Kasey gave him a funny look, probably asking herself if he was making fun of her or if he was just a dumbfuck.
Great, Thomas, he thought, nothing better than a good first impression.
"Yeah, the camp's pretty nice. People are cool, work's good. We're not fucking complaining." Gally obviously didn't have problems talking.
"Work?" Joe asked interested.
"Gally's the head of the construction team. Currently building your library, Kay." Vince smiled at Kasey who gave Gally an excited thumbs up. "Minho is our expert for mapping. He and his team are almost done with exploring the whole island." Vince placed a hand on the attractive, asian looking young man's shoulder.  "Brenda and Jorge over there manage our driving pool and do all kinds of technical stuff. Repairing the most hopeless cases." he carried on. "And Frypan, as you may have guessed, is one of our chefs. He makes the best desserts. I gained at least 5 pounds due to this little fucker." Vince nudged Fry playfully, laughing out loud.
"And what about you?" Kasey asked Thomas, looking him straight in the eyes for the first time. Thomas coughed, taking a deep breath. "Well...I...umm...I'm in Gally's team." he managed to stammer.
"He's my best lumberjack." Gally said, flattering him because he was far from being the best. "We call him Timber." he added grinning. That was a bloody lie and a great example of Gally's strange sense of humor. "No you don't." Thomas protested. "No need to be ashamed, Timber." Minho kept the joke running. Thomas rolled his eyes at his friends
"Timber...well, the name suits you, you look very...strong."
Kasey gave him a warm smile and he knew she was trying to be polite, because he really wasn't a muscleman, but actually she made him feel like shit. The whole situation made him feel small and useless. Every single one of his friends had an important job with lots of responsibility. He was the only exception. But when they had come to the camp he had been so sick of being a leader, of making decisions, of being responsible, reasonable, mature, important. So he'd gladly joined Gally's team as a simple labourer without a second thought, fully aware that he left Vince disappointed, who wanted him to be part of the camp's leadership together with him, Jorge and a handful of the other older camp members.
"So Gally, would you show me the library please? I'm so looking forward to equipping it and opening it as soon as possible." Kasey asked.
"Anytime." Gally said. "We're still working on the roof and the bookshelves, but you can come to take a look whenever you want."
"Okay, I want to see the hospital and the school too." Joe threw in. "Why don't you give us an hour to move back into our shacks and then we'll meet up at the headquarter and you give us a little tour, Vince. There must have been quite a few changes over the last seven months." Joe smiled, shouldering his duffle bag.
"Sounds like a plan." Vince nodded. "We better get going, your arrival has been noticed. We don't have time now for a welcome party" he added, pointing at a crowd of camp members that was on the way to the beach. "Yeah, let's go." Kasey agreed and their little meeting came to an end.
Almost three hours later Thomas heard them coming, when he was standing on a ladder, thatching the library's roof with Gally. Gally climbed down from the roof smoothly, cleaning his dirty hands on his trousers.
"Welcome" he said, holding the entrance door open for Vince, Kasey and Joe. Thomas followed them, his legs wobbly again, listening to Gally's explanations.
Kasey seemed to like what she saw. She was beaming, running around, touching the walls and the half-ready book shelves, chattering about what she was planning for the place like an excited child. When she was talking about all the work that was awaiting her, she seemed a little worried.
"I really gonna need someone to help me with all this. I can never do it on my own. Maybe you can find me a volunteer, Vince?"
"I volunteer!" Thomas blurted out, his heart racing at double speed, his hand shooting up.
"You?" Kasey didn't try to hide her surprise. "I'm gonna need someone who can start tomorrow. And who has a lot of passion and is willing to do not only one job but many. It's not only carrying books around, it's also sorting them through, reading part of them and even writing short summaries for the card index."
God, Thomas thought embarrassed, she thinks I'm a lame-brain.
"Oh, our little Casanova here has a lot of passion and loves all different kinds of jobs." Gally grinned not even trying to hide the innuendo.
Fuck you, Gally, Thomas cursed internally, but he smiled along like a fool anyway.
"Passion for books I mean." Kasey said with a frown, rolling her eyes.
"Yeah, I love books."
"Really?"
"Absolutely." Thomas lied without batting an eyelid.
"Okay. But I wouldn't wanna steal your best lumberjack." she turned to Gally, playing her last trump card.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine. Letting him do such simple work is a fucking waste of potential anyway. He's too smart for a lumberjack." He slapped Thomas on the back, making him stumble forward. "It's high time you start using your brain again, Timber. You seem to become an idiot lately." Gally gave him a friendly wink and Thomas smiled at him thankfully.
"Well then, that's settled." Vince said, a big smile spreading on his face.
