may I request some headcanons for the rise! turtles w/ a reader who loves rats? (like bruno madrigal) they’ve usually got at least one or two on their shoulders, their hoodie/jacket pockets, etc. (their pet ones ofc)
please, and thank you
I need to feed my followers as I finish the fluff alphabet <3 (just gotta write Donnie’s segment!)
What a lovely request anon!
Tw: None
Rise! Boys x Rat owner S/O
Tumblr media
Leo
Asks if they’re yours or if they just like you
Enamoured by them, likes seeing them nest in your hair
That’s his lock screen btw, the rats in your hair
Gives them tiny skateboards
Pushes them around on said tiny skateboards
Takes the rats with no warning
Puts them on his head
Gives them lil chew things, in an attempt at preventing holes in everyone’s clothes
An attempt
Gives them small sunglasses, so they can be as “cool as him”
Raph
Your rats don’t like him at first
Have you seen how animals react to this guy?Definitely need some trust exercises
Rat peed on him once
He claims it’s because they don’t like him
And- hey! You never know but probably not
With some treats they eventually come around
Likes holding them, they look so tiny in his hands!
Watches them sleep, just, look at them they’re so cute
Let’s them nap in between his stuffies, just because it’s adorable
Loves their little tails, the way they curl around things? Amazing
Donnie
Could really use a Lab rat or two, but respects that you love them and will not let him
Took a while for him to get used to them
But the rats?
They love him
Maybe it’s the smell
I mean, you guys are a package deal so he doesn’t have a choice, would never pull a ‘it’s me or them’
He does like that they’re warm however, jealous
Of what you may ask? That you get many tiny personal heaters at all times and he does not
But- then again he could just… make some, but I digress
Eventually comes to love them, giving them treats and a place to nap if you aren’t available for whatever reason
Mikey
Loves the little babies from the get go
Makes them food, likes feeding them things
Asks to give any potential babies names
Definitely has a page or two in his sketchbook with them as the muse’s
Watches them take naps in your pockets
LOVES it when they scurry up his arms
It’s so ticklish! And he’s not wearing a shirt so it’s amplified
Watches their shenanigans
Films them too, just as a keepsake
Dies of cuteness when spotting them sleeping
Game: do I like rats? The answer may surprise you! It won’t

hiii^^ could i request romantic miles x male reader where reader is really shy and quiet (+ has social anxiety if you're okay with writing that)
and (as a result of being quiet) has headphones on 24/7 and draws a lot?
(maybe add a part where he's caught drawing miles! so cliche><)
miles morales w/ an artistic boyfriend riddled with anxieties
sorry to call anyone out in the title, had a giggle about it
im holding this specific anons hand for a minute if they’ll let me, they radiate energy that makes me joyous (hi anon !!!)
established relationship
warnings: none
pairing: miles morales x male!reader
requests: check status on the masterlist
Tumblr media
★⋆ ⋆☆⋆ ☠︎︎ ⋆☆⋆⋆★✧
ABSOLUTELY RELATES TO YOU
he likes to think that he’s all suave and chill, but everyone knows he’s sheepish when met with certain situations
man can’t take a compliment, he can’t give a compliment, dates make him shake in his boots and having a boyfriend is something that’s entirely over romanticised in his head thanks to media, let’s be honest
social encounters weren’t a massive problem to him though, we’ve all seen how outgoing he is and friendly
plus, he grew up in a community where everyone knew everyone, wether you liked it or not
so he’s the “he asked for no pickles” half while you stand behind him shitting ur pants
he notices how shy you get while you’re out in public in comparison to in private, and he’s okay with that
doesn’t suddenly baby you though, just likes to check in on you every now and again until you’re back home
literally the most discreet “you good?” while stood in line or something
miles can absolutely understand coping with music, he’s the exact same way
you two share some interests, music and art ! it’s cute
he likes to suggest sharing some earphones either out in public or in private, it’s just one of those things that makes you two feel closer (he’s mad sheepish when suggesting it at first, but it eventually becomes one of those silent exchanges if ur cool with sharing) his version of romance
if he sees you with your headphones on, he won’t actively try to talk to you - from personal experience he can understand how stupidly frustrating it feels and wildly overstimulating
unless it’s something important, then he’ll try grab your attention by like tapping your shoulder or smthn,, a lil wave
makes bangin playlists for you, some to share and would be very happy if you did the same
he’s happy to do anything for his boyfriend to make him feel more comfortable in social situations.
you’re quiet, he doesn’t mind it as long as you have some kinda way to communicate with him - your needs and such
hold hands, your hands got stuck together once thanks to his spider-man-ness
if you didn’t know he was spider-man then, that’s how you found out
he’s a massive fan of drawing you and loves to see your own drawings
he’s a huge fan of you guys doing literally anything and catching you drawing with some bizarre medium without fail
caught you drawing him once- and then a lot more times
luckily, you were wearing headphones at that moment, so he got to have a lil victory emote without you noticing before acting like he never saw anything
does a very obvious, obnoxious greeting in the most cheesy way to clearly convey he never saw a thing
if by some unfortunate twist he is caught watching, man panics and is like “Hoh! I- didn’t see you there?? what’chu up to??” play it cool and smile it off miles “Wow that’s- that’s crazy how you.. caught me”
he’s been caught so many times in the past and he knows that internal feeling of dread
YOU BOTH KNOW YOU DRAW EACH OTHER UR NOT SLICK
but anxiety am i right
will not snatch your sketchbook or whatever you draw on suddenly UNLIKE SOMEONE
completely respects your privacy when it comes to your drawings, he can relate too much
that’s not to say that he isn’t curios, he sometimes likes to tease about peaking but never would without permission
if you’re both into graffiti then he’s takes you to insane spots to tag, especially once you find out he’s spiderman
likes to suggest collaborating on pieces all of the time
miles is great anatomy practice, with all his funky spider-man poses
i cant actually imagine he would hide being spider-man from you if you were dating beforehand, it’s a different conversation if it’s a new relationship
but hey, young love, am i right ?

Skz at carnival
Okay I tried to do something a bit different here where it’s not quite x reader but reader is heavily implied multiple times throughout the hc’s. Lemme know if you like it and don’t forget I live off of reblogs,comments and likes
Pls validate me🧍🏾‍♀️
Tumblr media
Bang Chan 방찬
-Carnival dad. I know it sounds stereotypical cause channie is dad/daddy/brother coded but why is he the only one who remembered water,snacks and cash hmm🤨
-Doesn’t really get too involved in the festivities because he’s busy keeping an eye on everyone
-Definitely does headcount’s every five minutes and gives himself minor heart attacks if he can’t immediately find one of you guys
-two words. Buddy. System. You get a buddy!you get a buddy! everyone gets a buddy!!🥳 but being buddies with Chan is a low key punishment cause it means you were doing a lil too much and he saw his career flash before his eyes😭
-there will be no wine catching on this mans watch. Homie is the opp fr😭😭 got his arms folded and everything waiting for one of y’all to get out of line
-overall a stick in the mud and would definitely have more fun if he couldn’t feel mister Park Jin-Young breathing down his neck😩
Lee know 리노
-homie is fascinated. From a dancers point of view he hit the holy grail. He’s literally just standing there like 👁️👄👁️🧍🏻‍♂️ just trying to soak it in because he’s never really seen anything like it.
-oh boy
-once he got a few shots in him he is Chan’s worst nightmare. He broke off from the group and is found twenty minutes later rizzing up anybody who would listen for a quick dance lesson because he needs to learn how to tic and tock😭
-ends up becoming Chan’s first buddy of the day and ends up sulking his way out of it by pulling the dongsaeng card.
-secretly taking videos to send to their choreographer for their comeback
Changbin 창빈
-Changbin got him a plate,a cola champagne and a view. He is not causing no fuss cause he’s getting his protein gains in and seeing some ass LMAO he is a simple man.
-definitely gets smacked upside the head though for trying to get a dancers number knowing damn well the netizens would eat his ass alive🙄
-It’s okay cause he’s back in chan’s good graces with some aegyo and a bite of his beef patty
-also because he basically tackles your ass to the ground for throwing it back on jisung
Hyunjin 현진
-baby boy is basically in an artist’s paradise. All the colors, the lights, the atmosphere. He pretty much wanders around with his sketchbook trying to capture just how live the place is.
-his waistline got a mind of they own though and he’s a fast learner so he doesn’t know what Chan was expecting with you two🙄 like damn dad why can’t it just be a wine between friends🙄🙄
-him,Felix and jisung end up in a like wining train that basically has Chan ready to rip his hair out folicile by follicle because that’s exactly what he told them not to do😃
-besties he is faded by the end of the night off coquito and piña colada’s😭He’s covered in glitter and feathers and has lipsticks stains from he doesn’t even know who.
-is literally returned to Chan hauled over Changbin’s shoulder giggling and mumbling about how it was the best day ever and they should go every year
Jisung 지성 & Felix 필릭스
-Jisung didn’t even wanna come🧍🏾‍♀️
-a crowed street with loud music,lots of people and nowhere to plug in his phone was not the wave. He tried to stick with Minho for the most part but when the liquor hit and kitty boy because a train wreck he realized that was no longer a feasible option😭
-his next best bet is Felix but he was not ready for the extrovert to extrovert😭😭
-he’s just trailing behind the blonde like a lost puppy until the initial new setting uneasiness wears off and he realizes he kinda likes it
-in the next hour he’s got a random countries flag wrapped around his waist and him and Felix managed to climb on top of a float and put those waistlines to work 😩
-Chan has never called for a driver so fast because their asses got sent ✨HOME✨
Seungmin 성민
-to put it bluntly seungmin didn’t go because it’s not really his scene but he thoroughly enjoyed watching the group chat blow up and Chan’s sanity slowly decline from the comfort of his bed
-he also enjoyed that video hyunjin took of you wining on jisung before their fun got cut short
Jeongin 정인
-he was so good and obedient the entire time that Chan lowkey forget he was there 😭
-he kinda wandered off on his own when Chan wasn’t looking at found his way towards the beginning of the parade where things were just a lot quieter and did his little tourist thing
-went to gift shops, took pictures of the floats,the dancers, the ocean, etc and kinda found himself planted in a Starbucks watching from the window and playing games on his phone
-had the gc muted so is literally so detached from the events that happened that day.
-he’s over here posting his little OOTD’s like “had a great time at carnival🎆💃🏾” while Chan and the PR time are trying to do damage control 😭
All in all everyone who went had fun but Chan

Krueger being a seat sniffer isn’t shocking tbh 💀 that man def already picked out the names of his and Sweetheart’s future kids and wedding plans detailed in a binder (is he manifesting or delusional; who knows lol!).
He also def has a shrine dedicated to Sweetheart openly in his room, atleast the other boys have the decency to hide their shrines in their closet 😤😂
LMAOOO STOP THATS SO HIM (AND FUCKING EVERYONE ELSE)
He has like- three binders and two notebooks he has for Sweetheart and his future with her. Like it's just FILLED with where they would live, how many kids they would have, tHEIR NAMES, the colleges they would go to, the house he wants to get when they get married, THE WEDDING
MANS IS EVEN PLANNING FOR THEIR RETIREMENT LIKE-- KRUEGER??? he's delulu and manifesting for this to happen!! Let's cheer him on! ✨️🙏 PFFTT-
And yes. He has a shrine of Sweetheart. OBVIOUSLY. THE MOMENT YOU WALK IN its right there in your face. It's sitting on a small table-like stand and it's FILLED with framed pictures of Sweetheart and heart shaped candles around them. There's a long frame with gold on it, and inside of it is a nail set he got her his first time ever (that was three years ago 💀) She told him it was coming off, and she was so sad because he got it for her (he fell in love with her more because of that) so he helped her get them off, and he told her that he'll throw them away.
S I K E
once she left he threw them in his pocket so fast and ran off to his room 💀💀 and then there's a pedestal on the table, and it has a small, marble bust of Sweetheart he paid someone to do on etsy (HE LOVES ETSY IM NOT CHANGING MY MIND) and what's crazy is that all of its glued down to the table, and there's a button behind it, so he presses that button when Sweetheart comes around and the table top flips, being empty and he places magazines on the clean top 🧍‍♀️ THE MAN HAS A SECRET CONTRAPTION FOR HIS SHRINE
(You can't deny the fact that he prays to it as well. You CANT)
He's down horrifically bad. He wants her sO BADLY
well get tf in line BIG BOY CAUSE SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE
They don't really have shrines like Krueger (because he's delusional) but everyone does have a picture of Sweetheart or some sort of gift she's made them somewhere in their room. Or on them.
Like Alejandro has a small gold locket of Sweetheart he wears around his neck and NEVER TAKES IT OFF-- and when he's about to go on a mission, he kisses the locket, says a small prayer and puts it under his shirt, so he knows that he's protected and has someone to go back to (why am I making myself cry)
Rudy has a picture of Sweetheart framed with a letter she sent him on his desk with the little things she's made him. He reads the letter every time he misses her (WHY AM I DOING THIS TO MYSELF)
Ghost wears a braided friendship bracelet Sweetheart made him. (Its black and blue with lil skulls) He hides it on his left wrist with his glove, but he still wears it. When he's not around Sweetheart, he plays with the ties and smiles
Soap has like a little collage of pictures of Sweetheart and him on a corkboard. They take pictures when they're in a new country or state and collect weeds of flowers and give it to each other (SO CUTE I LOVE SOAP) and his sketchbook is FILLED of Sweetheart-- like he remembers what she looks like so much he sketches her from memory. And he uses a separate sketchbook for her, he calls it "Sweet's Looks".
Gaz only has one picture of her, and it's on his phone. It's Sweetheart cuddled up on his side, hand on his chest while watching a movie. It's obviously his home screen wallpaper (not his lock screen he can't handle that) he also has a little basket of different rocks Sweetheart has given him because she has a little basket of rocks he has given her as well (they're birds I tell ya)
Price has a photo of her in his hat. That's why he never lets anyone touch it, and his heart beats a little quicker when Sweetheart wears is hat cause he's nervous she's gonna see the picture (she has, and it's her and Brutus together and she squeals everytime in her mind)
Roach has a picture of Sweetheart taped to a bear. 🧍‍♀️ don't really wanna go into that one--
Alex has like- one of those photo booth type of pictures. Yk the ones that come in threes or fours. They went to a mall and Sweetheart HAD to get some. Alex uses his as a bookmark.
Now Horangi is like Krueger. He DOES have a shrine but it's in his closet. You will NEVER SEE IT.
König would have a shrine in his closet as well, but it's SMALL. Like two pictures and a good luck letter she wrote to him when he was on a mission. He's so soft for her good lord.
Graves has like.... I don't know a paperclip? That Sweetheart gave him? Think he still has that pen that Sweetheart forgot to take back. Still counts.

Hi! I saw your requests were open, so I decided to leave something here. Hope that’s okay! Can you do prsk boys + Ena (seperate) with a reader who has a kinda exotic pet, like Kohane? Like, the reader could have a bat or chinchilla. [Up to you?]
Also remember to take care of yourself! :D
yaya, ill do a lil thing for both animals weheh <3 take care of urself too, and I hope u like this!! <3
♡ EXOTIC PET - Akito Shinonome, Toya Aoyagi, Tsukasa Tenma, Rui Kamishiro and Ena Shinonome x Reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Akito:
Akito would thank everything that at least it's not a dog. He'll then proceed to freak out upon seeing your pet-
He finds out that he is scared of exotic animals, but he'll try his best to ease into touching your pet
This will definitely have to happen with just the two of you, because he'd melt in embarrassment if any of his friends had to see him like this-
He would definitely want to scream any time your bat flies around him, he's just scared he'll hurt them- At least he's not freaked out by how they look!
He'd be a bit better with a chinchilla, but he'll still stare wide-eyed at them as they run around. If it jumps anywhere near him, he does end up screaming-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Toya:
Toya is definitely the most normal out of everyone here, he'll admire your pet in quiet awe
He doesn't want to startle them at all, so he'll quietly sit on the floor and patiently wait for your pet to move towards him. He'd feel bad if he startled them-
He'll absolutely light up whenever they brush against him, and he'll give them the gentlest pets in the world
He thinks that your bat is one of the coolest things he's ever seen, and he'll carefully pet them with a really soft smile. If they fly, he'll watch with admiration
He'll be amazed by how soft your chinchilla is, running his fingers through their fur over and over again. If they jump around, he'll marvel at how fast they are
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tsukasa:
Tsukasa will tell you that he wants to see your pet, then immediately screams upon seeing them-
The only animals he's really scared of are bugs, but this doesn't stop him from being startled by your pet-
He's never seen anything like them! And he already reacts to everything 10000x more than he has to, so he will end up screaming whether he wants to or not-
He is both freaked out and intrigued by your bat, he thinks that they're so cool! Just please don't let them fly around him, he's gonna scream-
He will be in awe of your chinchilla, they're so fluffy!! And he'll cheer if they jump around, but will still be scared if they jump around him-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rui:
Rui will certainly be intrigued, how did someone so close to him manage to get such an exotic creature as a pet?
He asks you a bunch of questions on where you got your pet, how you got your pet, how you take care of them, etc...
He's maybe a bit too curious about it, allowing your pet to move around or on him as he continues his questions. He has a notebook dedicated to them-
He so badly wants to learn more about your bat's anatomy, but that would be a dissection and he won't do that- He's content with just holding your bat!
He is really taken by how fluffy your chinchilla is, they're adorable! He also does ponder if he could make a costume with fur that fluffy-
Tumblr media
Ena:
Ena will be a mix of curious and deathly afraid. Yes she wants to see your pet, but also don't hold them so close to her-
She's never taken to animals too much, especially since they always get more likes than her posts on social media ever do, but she'll try to warm up to your pet
Plus, she gets to practice drawing animals, so there's a high chance that you'll find her holding her sketchbook and staring intensely at your pet
The bat will freak her out, she's never seen them so close and why do they look like that- At least they'd be easier to draw if they're sleeping...
The chinchilla would also kind of freak her out a bit, why are they so fluffy?? And if they move around a lot, her drawings get messed up a lot-

42!Miles Headcannons
I am on a kick of Spiderverse, so Tumblr gets it-
Miles has separation anxiety with you, which got a lot worse when you started dating, him being the prowler and all
He cannot handle the sound of guns, it makes his anxiety race.
He'd never admit it but he genuinely likes your company, like he'll deny it then go out of his way to find stupid reasons to hang out with you. Which his mom plays into. Miles: Aye, Idiota. Come over. My mom misses you. Y/N: Ooookay? Rio, hugging Y/N: Y/N I've missed you, how've you been? Are you feeling okay? Have you been eating enough? Y/N, laughing: I'm okay Mrs. Morales, thank you for worrying about me though Miles: *Absolutely smitten by how you interact with his mom*
Leaves you gits randomly, like if he's out on a job with his uncle and he sees something he knows you'll like he'll swipe it (and leave money) and either leave it on your desk or put it on your window sill. You've yet to catch him
He HAS stopped and watched you sleep when he left you a gift, not in creepy way more like a "God... They're so perfect..." His eyes, hidden behind his lil mask, softened on you. He only left because the hallway light flicked on and he panicked. That was the loudest he had ever fled from somewhere, he didn't even close your window.
He is really artistic too, he has dozens of sketches of you in his sketchbook. You're his favorite thing to draw
Don't get me wrong, I'm a sucker for Miles wanting to kill someone for you. But he would only think it, he'd never actually act on those thoughts. He couldn't bear the weight of taking a life, even if it was for you. He's a vigilante, remember
As terrifying as he seems, Miles is a HUGE baby when it comes to getting hurt. He'll act like he's fine, but when he's with his Uncle or Mom he cries. Like ugly cries, he's a huge baby-
Has Trypanophobia (The Fear of Needles), hates the sight of them and cannot handle it when he has to get shots
When he cannot handle anything anymore he goes to his dad's Mural and just sits there, he doesn't talk or make any noise. He just sits against the brick, sometimes he cries, sometimes he doesn't but he's always there late at night so no one really sees him
He doesn't talk to anyone he actually has a crush on, like he's flirty as hell with everyone but the person he actually likes he's really blunt and distant. Like a dumbass
I can 100% see Miles being Omni, like he could like anyone as long as he's close to them
We all know Miles' sleep schedule is FUCKED, he's a Vigilante, he doesn't get to sleep much due to everything being at night. But he still gets good grades and sleeps when he can
This is literally one of his posts on Twitter and you CANNOT tell me otherwise-
Tumblr media
He isn't really bothered by people who're taller than him, or people who are a few inches shorter. But if you're below his chin he's wary, he's heard enough from Ganke not to mess with people that short. "They have to climb to get things, I don't wanna mess with someone who climbs counters.
I can see him being taller than 1610!Miles, cause 1610!Miles is 5'8" so I can see 42!Miles being anywhere from 5'9 to 5'10". Like it's not a noticeable difference if you're not paying attention, ya know?
Miles does Photography, but it's more of a hobby. He doesn't plan on turning it into a career, but he does it when he's got the chance, his posts look like this
Tumblr media
Bubbly_Rose and Vanilla.Coffee.Addict. Are both his mom, different accounts to support her son. Best mom 100%
Miles has dozens of playlists on spotify, most of which are for his friends and family.
Cat person but has a german shepard named Luna
Had dreads ONCE and decided he hated them, so he stuck to his braids
Miles can cook, really really well. His mom and him used to bond through cooking and now it's something he does when he's stressed or upset
Depending on how tired Miles is, is how he sleeps. If he's just a lil sleepy, his legs are kinda bent and his arms are by his head, HOWEVER, if it was after REALLY tiring job with his uncle he kinda just falls onto his bed and sleeps like that
He usually doesn't go to anyone for comfort and comforts himself unless it's really bad then he goes to his mom or (if he really REALLY trusts them) his significant other
Miles has a tendency to flinch/move away from any form of touch that's not from his mother. He gets pins and needles if he's not expecting a touch and it is almost painful, I wouldn't say he's touch-starved but with his mom working so much it's easy to see that he would be
The one thing that brings Miles' to tears is watching his mom work herself to the bone and never being able to take a break. It makes him so mad that he can't help her, without it being obvious, that it reduces him to tears
He cries when he's mad
He hates it when people go through his things or move them. He has everything in a place, everything has to be perfect. Major OCD when it comes to his room, it's his space and he wants it perfectly clean
Miles takes really good care of himself, he keeps himself in shape (outside of being the Prowler) and makes sure to eat and hydrate right
Miles. Is. A. Huge. Softie for little kids. He acts like he can't stand them but the minute he's flashed a toothy smile from a little kid, he can't help but smile back
He considers a few people who aren't family, his family like Ganke
His idea of "A Perfect Vacation" is going anywhere with his mom and Uncle. It could literally be a trip to his Paternal Grandmother's house, and as long as his mom isn't working he is perfectly content
Miles tends to bite his nails and chew on his lips when he's nervous
By FAR the strangest thing Miles has ever seen was one of his classmates straight up touching their eyeball, that happened when he was 13 and it still freaks him out
Miles accepts advice relatively well, he doesn't show it but he does
He hates most pictures, but there was a few that his version Gwen took of him.
He is horrible at talking to someone he's got a crush on, like worse than 1610!Miles ;-;
Miles wakes up before his mom, when she's home, and makes her breakfast, he eats, showers, and goes to school, comes home, does his homework, goes to his boxing class (curtesy of Uncle Aaron), and depending on the day either goes on a job or goes to sleep
He has a few scars on his face from one of the first few jobs he was on when he wasn't far enough away from a bomb when it went off
Ocra. He CANNOT with the texture of it.
He loves stormy weather, its relaxing to him
He loves Fall and winter, the crisp air makes him smile
As a way to waste time, he goes to the gym or draws
When Miles wakes up from a nightmare, he kinda just lays there until he puts his headphones on and falls asleep to whatever song he's listening to
Miles collects little doo-dads from the street, it gives him something to fidget with
Miles knows English, Spanish, and French. He had to take a second language class and he COULDN'T take Spanish, so he's relatively fluent in French
Miles is the type of person to give someone the tightest most affection hugs, like even if he's just friends with the person. Hugs are like "I love you"s for Miles, they're sparing things from him
If Miles had three wishes from a genie he'd wish for: 1. His mother to either be paid more or for her to work less 2. His city to have less issues 3. To talk to his dad again
CROSSOVER: Miles is a gryffindor, with a Kingfisher Patronus and an 11.25 in Applewood wand with Unicorn hair ((I don't support J.K. Rowling))
Miles saw you in his clothes once and it MELTED him, he physically leaned against the wall and smiled stupidly
If you don't typically wear glasses (despite needing them, like my dumbass) and you wear them around Miles. The first time he saw you in them, he was distracted enough he walked into a wall.
Miles will protest being called cheesy things likes "Babydoll", "Pumpkin" "Sweets", "Bubba", "Light of My Life", "Tater Tot" (this happened ONCE, "Sunshine", "Dumpling", "Bambie", and "Babyface". He genuinely loves it when you call him that. Specifically: Babydoll, Pumpkin, and Sunshine. He still likes the other ones but loves those more.

Tumblr media
Steve’s legs dangle languidly off the concrete shore. His palm should be pressed to the ground, keeping his balance, but they instead defiantly clasp around an old worn-out sketchbook. His fingers nimbly capture ships on the horizon, waves lapping at the wall several feet below him and the orange of the evening reflecting off of rusted metal.
He looks up for a moment when a horn blares, loud and good. A smile slips past as he snaps his notebook shut and places it beside him, clenching his eyes shut and deeply inhaling the saltiness in the air.
Life is warm. Life is stripped down to its bare essence and still, life is good.
Steve jerks awake.
For months he expected nightmares to drag him out of his sleep, heaving and wide-eyed.
For months they never arrive, leaving him with the saccharine sweetness of the sun’s heat on his skin and legs stretched over the harbour.
Decidedly, it is worse.
____
He's seen those apartments in the catalogues, on TV shows and more. Grey, with furniture placed methodically only where it was required. A fake plant to spruce it up, one painting adding just one colour-- maybe a yellow, or an orange-- amidst the whites and blacks.
He's always thought it looked too sanitised. Like an office, or the boardrooms he spent most of daylight in. You couldn't possibly live in a home where everything felt like a touch away from being corrupted; too clean, like no one had ever lived in it.
But mostly, he always thought it looked lonely.
His apartment was filled- and remained in the process of it, too- with knick-knacks. Posters of movies he hadn't yet seen and of ones from the past that he had, paintings from local artists selling on the street, stuff he'd wrestled back from the museums. They'd called it artefacts, Steve had always just called it his old notebooks and his mother's clay sculptures. Those rested on the mantle.
Nothing had been added to the house in months.
"Captain."
Steve blinks, long.
He lifts his eyes to the person opposite to him, dark tailored suit and pinned back hair, greying prematurely.
"Yes?" he asks, ring finger still covering his mouth as his palm holds up the weight of his jaw.
"You haven't said a word since you got here," she replies with a poisonously sweet smile.
"Was just listening to what everyone had to say," Steve lies, and it's the first of many he'll tell today.
A panel. Steve’s on a panel of experts. Security experts. He doesn't even fucking know why-- he's never been very good at predicting which new being was going to fall out of the sky and try to kill all his friends.
"Nothing to add?" Though her tone is friendly, her eyes unsettlingly held no emotion.
"Have a feelin' you all know what I'm gonna say," he replies.
There's a sigh at the end of the long table, clearing one's throat from the other. Steve's stare remains steadfast.
“Captain Rogers. Steve," she-- Councilwoman Murray, he suddenly remembers-- says with a tick in her voice, pleasantly. "What we're proposing-"
"I know. I heard you," he says, calm as ever. "You want to set up a base in space with weapons of mass destruction in case an event like the Blip were to happen again. While I appreciate your patience, Councilwoman, here's where you're going to have to put up with me because I'm gonna tell you what I've been sayin' every single time we've met: it doesn't make sense."
"It is for international peace," she sighs.
It became very clear in the first meeting that his beliefs don’t align with the rest of them, but they've committed and so has he. No matter how many people slid him deals under the table or offered him positions like president, his opinion wasn't going to shift.
"A base that falls under American jurisdiction, run by American soldiers, using American produced weapons, serving under the orders of an American government, serving on the basis of, and I'm quoting your proposal here, threats against the citizens of the United States of America." Steve arches a brow. "Doesn't sound real international to me, especially when you're planning on vetoing anyone who doesn't agree. Just a scare tactic to the rest of the world."
Another suffering sigh. He can see a smile threaten to creep up on Mona’s face.
"Besides, it's quite the budget you've allocated to this project," he continues, pushing forward the document. "I think it'd be better spent on the millions of people you say you're glad are back. Last I heard, they’re still waiting on the resources you've promised."
With the last word, there's a faint sense of deja vu warm in his chest. He's sure he's brought this up elsewhere, but he can't pinpoint where. It’s hard to remember how he gets from one place to another. Or is it hard to pay attention? He can’t tell the difference anymore, it didn’t matter much.
Years, he has to correct himself.
Everything looked the same as it did six years ago. The last thing that he remembers adding to the decor was a framed picture of you and him at a baseball game before it all went to shit in Germany. That sat on the mantle, too.
He walks past it every morning, diverting his eyes to the kitchen before he catches sight of it and the pit forms in his stomach again. Still, he can't find it in himself to remove it.
Steve drags a razor across his cheek. It cleanly wipes away the foam, leaving behind clear skin, neat. Some days he just used soap when he couldn't open the shelf and reach for the shaving cream.
He turns his head down to slosh the razor around in the water. He remembers when he used to like the sound, thought it was fun.
There is red when he lifts his head back up to the mirror. Piercing red.
“It’s not that easy, Rogers.”
“Isn’t it?” Steve shoots a glance at the head of the table. "Seems pretty damn easy to me to decide what the money should go towards, and it's not the next tax write-off for the megalomaniac who's funded the doughnuts for this meeting."
The member’s jaw tightens and he sinks back into his seat again. The room’s quiet, an amalgamation of awkward stares and rolling eyes.
Because of course, Steve didn’t understand the problem. Steve didn’t understand the politics of it all.
Steve's just there 'cause Captain America has to be.
There's a thin line of blood when he lifts his head back up to the mirror. It races from about half his cheek down to his jaw, bright crimson changing to a dull red as it dilutes.
Steve stares at it for several moments. His watch ticks, reminding him that he may be frozen but the world was still spinning around him. But it was 5am and he's got nowhere to be for at least three hours.
When he drags his stare away from the nick and to his eyes in the mirror, he remember how the air used to get sucked out of the room. The same clocks used to stop ticking.
There was nothing there. He was not there. It was empty and he looked back at himself, tired eyes and glowing skin.
But now everything goes on as it did before. There is still nothing there, not even him. The air is still heavy in the bathroom and the watch keeps ticking.
Steve uses his thumb to wipe away the blood, and keeps going.
“Coffee, Captain Rogers?”
It’s a steady little routine they’ve fallen into. Mona asks him, always at precisely the right time, whether he would like a cup as they walk towards one of the many assigned conference rooms that day.
He told her yes once, and she committed his order to heart. It wasn't a big feat-- black, with no sugar and no cream-- but he appreciated it all the same. He carelessly downed it like a shot, ignoring the s as it goes down his throat.
Steve gently turns her down today, however. She quickly rats off a list of people he has to meet, pushing her glasses up the bridge of her nose in the process. He nods dimly, knowing that she'd send him a text with all the details anyway.
“You have to meet with Mr Langstaff at 12, and Mr Estrada at 1:30 to decide your press release. Y/N demands that you pick up the phone, and you have dinner with Mrs Madron at 8 at the Ritz about the ambassadorship.”
Steve's ears perk up, head snapping towards her. “What was that?”
“You have dinner at 8 with Mrs Madron at the Ritz,” Mona repeats slowly, deliberately.
“No, before that.”
She flips a page back on her notepad before reciting, “Y/N demands that you pick up the phone.”
Christ. 
Steve swiftly skims through his phone, brows furrowing when he finds nothing. It takes a second to hit that if you were to call him, it probably wouldn't be to his work number. The work phone had a few texts and missed calls he hadn't responded to yet. He would be meeting them in the next few days anyway, what was the damn hurry?
From Y/N
Been a few days, you around?
From Y/N
Mona says you're busy so I'm not gonna call, but I left a message with her. Don't feel pressured to respond immediately, it was mostly a joke
Fuck.
From Y/N
Just lemme know if you're good
He curses softly under his breath, before pressing a button and holding the phone up to his ear.
He ignores the people walking past, some doing a double take when they see him standing in the middle of the hallway on a random weekday.
“Y/N,” he says in greeting the second you pick up. "Hey."
“Steve,” you reply equally as quick. “You all right?”`
“'M sorry, it's been a while since I checked this phone. I‘m fine.”
He can hear you exhale slightly at the other end, and the snap of elastic on your skin. He waits patiently outside the conference room for the people to start filing in, but he estimates another ten minutes before they do.
“Sorry, Stevie, didn’t mean to worry you,” you say, prying the gloves away from your hand, “It's just-- the last time you missed a couple'a calls, I had to find out you’re enemy of the state from the receptionist.”
“No, I get it. I forgot to respond, it's my bad.” He keeps his phone on silent these days. The only communication he really responds to with urgency is what Mona deems critical.
 “We still meeting up for coffee today?”
Steve pinches the bridge of his nose hard. Of all the things to slip his mind in the middle of all the legal jargon and fundraising efforts.
He sneaks a glance at his watch, and then back at the meeting room where an assistant was placing glasses of water in front of seats, and back at his watch.
“We don’t have to, if you’re not up for it,” you remind him in the lingering silence. “I know your schedule is busy these days.”
He had conferences, and dinners, and calls to ignore, and people to scorn, because if he wasn't fighting, then he's gotta be doing more to be helping people out, right?
“4pm, at Whole Latte Love, wasn't it?” His eye catches Mona’s, who swiftly flips through several pages of her notebook to write down his new plan. “I’ll be there.”
“You sure?”
“‘Course.” The corners of his mouth lift softly. "Can't wait."
“All right.” He can hear the smile in your voice. It’d been a while. “See you there.”
The call ends with a soft click. His posture immediately stiffens again.
Mona’s attention is still on the notepad when she says, “Guess that cancels the video call with Jepsen at 4:15.”
______
He pulls the brim of his cap even lower, if that was possible, fully intending to cover up his untrimmed hair. It didn't work very well; whatever was too long for the cap just stuck up in strange angles given how tight the hat was.
The smell of roasting coffee beans was intense, and a little hard to take in. He had been here loads of times before, but those visits had thinned out and the gaps in between each had increased exponentially over the last few years.
When he scours the area, all he sees are booths occupied with people speaking in hushed tones. It serves to remind him again that the world seemed a lot quieter now.
Six years ago, he couldn't take a step down a street without hearing cries for missing sons, aunts, friends. Then, of course, there was silence. Almost deafening, as people slowly picked themselves up, tried to make sense of the life they were living now.
It continued even when the Snapped were back. The parades were loud and the parties even louder but everything seemed muted. Almost like they expected the returned to leave again, cautious about how much energy they spent celebrating something that could disappear in an instant.
The chair scrapes against the linoleum floor, pulling his attention away from his lap.
He doesn't even know when he sat down.
“Please, don’t look so surprised.” You don’t go for a greeting, instead, taking note of the slightly dilated eyes. “Only you would wear a cap indoors and think it’s a good disguise.”
Steve glances around discreetly. “No one else noticed.”
“What, that you look like you want to hide?” You snort, laying all your stuff on the table after taking a seat. “Yeah, they did. Hi, by the way.”
If they did, they didn’t say anything.
"Hi," he says back. "You look good."
You narrow your eyes at him, before your face breaks into a small smile. "I didn't realise disarray and chaos was pleasing to you."
He shrugs. "You make it work."
Your head ducks with a smile and a small shake. “Did you order anything?”
"Not yet."
“Do you want to?” You pour over the menu in front of you even though you’ve been here before with him so many times you know exactly what you want. “Coffee, black, no sugar, no cream?”
Even though he declined Mona on the same offer, he takes you up on yours. It's always been hard to say no to you.
You quickly flag down the waitress, giving her your orders and a big smile and revert back to Steve.
“Haven’t heard from you in a while,” you say, leaning forward on your elbows. “How’s everything going?”
It hasn’t been on purpose-- well, it was-- but no one had really heard from him in a while.
“You know,” he draws out, “a lot of conversations with a lot of… interesting people.”
“Snobs?" you offer. "Uptight?”
“That's one way to put it.” There’s humour in his words but only a wisp of it on his face. “They’re thinkin’ of holding another carnival in a month.”
“What, like one obnoxious parade wasn’t enough already?”
“That’s what I told ‘em. But elections are coming up and the guy wants as much publicity as they can afford.” He restrains himself from rolling his eyes. “Tell me you're doing better on your side.”
“It’s like middle school all over again, Stevie.” The corner of your lip stretches thin in annoyance. “Ever since the return, everyone’s been fightin’ over desks and projects that we completed while they were gone.”
One of the most reputed labs in the world, some of the most formidable brains of nature and endless arguments over whose table gets to face the window, and who gets to sit nearest to the water cooler for better access to office gossip.
"Jesus," he says, before a familiar voice pinches him. Don't take the Lord's name in vain.
"Gets better."
Steve quirks an eyebrow.
The conversation gets cut short when the waitress sets down a cup in front of him and fills it nearly to the brim. It already smells better than the garbage they serve at the town hall, and he certainly could use a cup to make up for the fifty hours he'd spent awake so far.
"Thank you," he tells her before turning his attention to you. "Better how?"
“Well-- better is actually pretty subjective. Positions are shuffling around, people are moving.” You bite your lip. “They offered me a new job.”
He smiles for the first time that day, a big-toothed grin. "They did?"
"New title. Just fancier words for a person that runs that joint." You blow gently at your beverage, shoulders rising and falling nonchalantly. "Pays real well. Lot more access to resources, grants. Everything."
"Sounds like a dream," he says carefully, noting the lack of eye contact.
“I’m not sure if I’m gonna take it, though."
There it is. “Why?”
“Don't know if I want to." You shrug. "They only floated it by me a while ago, and it's pretty under wraps, so I have time. Don't have to answer 'em right away."
"Is there something going on?" If he'd somehow managed to miss it while doing God knows what, he'd never let himself forget it.
"No, there's nothing," you reassure. "I just don't know if I wanna do it."
Steve inclines his head. You expertly dodge it with a clearing of your throat. 
“Sam told me the new compound’s been coming up okay.” God, he hadn’t seen Sam since the time he came back from returning the stones to their rightful place and that had been a few months ago.
“Yeah, almost done, actually. Most of the stuff’s been moved already.” 
All the way across the country, far away from New York and its bi-annual alien attacks. Pepper had had enough after the compound got wrecked again, ordering for a complete shift to preserve whatever was left from the destruction.
“Do you think I can score a designated parking spot?”
“You can try."
"Or you can." You grin at him. "Put in a word for me."
Steve clicks his tongue. “Don't think it'd do any good. No special privileges, even for employees.”
“Damn it,” you curse under your breath and he lets out a small chuckle. “You think they’d throw free parking in with the healthcare.”
 "Did you get yourself checked up?" She eyes him, top to bottom.
"Bucky had a look."
"So, that's a no, then," she says flatly. "When was this?"
"Two days ago."
"And you're completely all right?"
"Steve?"
He forcefully zeroes his focus back on you. "I'm sorry, what was that?"
Your head quirks, but you let go of it a second later.
"I asked how you were." You twirl a stirring rod around your hot chocolate, letting its warmth seep into your palms through the cup as you hold it up. “If you were holdin’ up okay.”
“Yeah. Yeah, I’ve been good," he says, lips stretched into a tight smile. “Keeping myself occupied.”
 Steve purposely takes a long sip of his coffee, avoiding the furrow of your eyebrows. It makes his stomach lurch a little, and he raises his cup to his lips again to avoid thinking about it too much.
“You get any time off at all?”
“Sometimes.” Before you can question, he counters, "Do you?”
"I've had vacation days buildin' up for years now. Got nowhere to use 'em." Your eyes dart about the shop before landing on him. "Which is actually what I wanted to talk to you about."
Steve peers back in question, setting the cup down.
“What if I were to ask you-” you begin casually “-if you’d wanna maybe get away for a while.”
He only waits for you to continue.
“I was thinking we could take a road trip.”
A road trip?
Steve voices exactly that.
“We’ll get a car, drive it down to wherever you wanna go. Texas, Washington-” you speak a little faster, leaning forward to take his hand in yours “-hell, even fuckin’ Florida, I don’t care. I’ll plan it out, I’ll take care of everything."
His eyes flit down your hand on his, swallowing thickly. A break. A break. The idea makes his head spin and a laugh bubble out of him incredulously. But as soon as it arrives, it dissipates, leaving in its wake hesitancy and 'I'm sorry, I don't know if I can'.
“Why?” he asks instead, to squander any outright denial.
Why? He wants to smack himself in the head. Because best friends do that. Best friends take road trips together and host dinner parties and tell each other what’s on their minds and don't hide things, life-changing things.
You cage your bottom lip between your teeth, gaze softening. “I miss you.”
Steve feels the familiar sickness in his stomach, the same pit that forms every time he walks past the framed picture of you both in the morning.
“A road trip,” he repeats, testing it out for himself.
“A month, you and me. We're not leaving tomorrow or something, don't worry. Still gotta apply for leave and take care of some stuff, it'll take a while." Your eyes brighten when he doesn't immediately shoot it down. “I’ll even let you pick the music.”
“My taste isn’t that bad," he deflects offhandedly.
You give him a half-smile in response. “What d’ya say, Stevie?”
“A month?” Steve asks again, knowing that he was about to send Mona into an absolute panic.
“Just one," you swear.
A road trip. Across a country he was named after, one that he had never seen, save for in a state of destruction and despair.
"I'll have to check," he says. "Can I let you know?"
It's like you deflate, only by a minuscule amount but he catches it.
"Of course. No pressure, okay? It was just an idea."
"I know," Steve says quickly, flipping his hand so that it covers yours instead. "I promise I'll see what I can do."
You nod, a little uncertain before a smile overtakes your face.
It isn't a no. It isn't a flat-out refusal but he knows. He’s been pulling away and this is another attempt atit.
A cruel part of his mind says that it’s easy, it makes it easier for him and you later on.
"Something to eat?" you query, settling back into your seat. "I could go for some food."
The logical part says it’s because he’s a damn coward.
__________
Day slips into night and night slips into early morning faster than he anticipates.
If he didn't sleep, he didn't have to relive it all over again and the choice, therefore, was glaringly simple.
His phone shudders to let him know there's only 15 percent of battery left. Only then, when his neck cranes to reach around for his charger does he notice the time.
4:13am.
Steve stares at the phone for a while.
The light hadn't even come in yet, but with all the blinds in his house closed, he doubts they would have.
He blinks when he feels the familiar burn in his eyes.
4:15am.
Then he's made slowly aware of the dull ache in his neck he can easily attribute to sitting in the wrong position for too long. 
Did he eat dinner?
4:18am.
Steve stares at the lock screen. An urge suddenly tugs at his brain.
Change it, or change his phone, or remove the cover. Or throw it at a wall.
By the time he locks it again, it reads 4:21am.
He thinks it's good enough to get a shower in.
__________
"A road trip?"
"Yeah." Steve rubs at his eyes with the heel of his palm.
"Thought you left that life behind with your plastic dinner plate."
Steve winces at the thought of his ill-fitting velcro suit. “Shut up.”
"Suppose your metal dinner plate deserves the same honour," Bucky muses, looking down at something off-screen. "Are you getting a tour bus?"
"Just a car, m'afraid," Steve says wearily. "Maybe on the European leg."
"Tell Y/N it broke my whole heart when I didn't receive an invite in the mail for this trip."
Steve sighs. "Might wanna hold onto your tissues. I'm not even sure I'm going." 
"And why the hell not?"
"I don't know." He squints when Bucky ducks out of view, leaving him open to the attack of bright daylight through the phone. "I'm not sure."
"About what?" Bucky yells to be heard from off-screen.
"Got work to do."
Steve chews on his lip, letting his eyes close for a second in the silence.
There's a loud thud, and Steve opens his eyes to Bucky dropping a stack of files on the table in front of him. Brown, some sealed and others with corners softened from overuse.
"You're avoiding it," Bucky says flatly.
Steve's eyebrows furrow, more so in indignation than anything. "I am not."
"Shut the fuck up, Rogers," his best friend of many-- almost too many, he's beginning to think-- years tells him without even thinking twice. "What's your excuse this time, huh? Back pain? Senior's night at the country club?"
"Jesus Christ, Bucky."
"When's the last time you took a vacation?" Bucky's image is clear through the phone with no pixelation whatsoever. Steve can't imagine it's the same from his end, what with the crappy WiFi and sitting in the darkness of his bedroom.  
He blows out a breath. "Well, if you count th-"
"If you say the time you were frozen, I'm gonna hang up."
Steve shuts his mouth.
Bucky pauses to read something and Steve takes the opportunity to kick off the shoes he hadn't bothered removing before laying down.
Bucky peers up at the screen for a second. "D'you know where the-"
"Manila folder. Under the testimonials list," Steve completes.
He doesn't even look surprised, just nods and picks up the correct file before flipping through it.
"Have you gone through them all?"
"Should I?" Bucky asks wearily. "I mean, I lived through them, y'know."
Steve sighs, scratching his cheek, wincing when he comes across the tiny scab. "You need to go through the files, Bucky."
"I'm kidding," Bucky clarifies with a roll of his eyes. "You'd think people would cut me some slack after being imprisoned for sixty years, but no. Can't joke about torture, can't joke about forgetting what I had for breakfast."
Steve stares at him through the phone.
"It was eggs," he says slowly. "I had eggs. And juice. Orange."
The thin sheets rustle under Steve as he sits up straight. "This is why I'm not going on that trip."
Bucky drops the file he was holding with a loud scoff. "Now hold on there, Rogers. Don't you fuckin' act like you've got babysitting duty.."
It should be too early there for Bucky to be this confrontational and it was definitely too late for Steve to argue back. He makes a mental note to call him at midnight next time, but the bastard would probably be up and about then too. He wonders if Bucky ever sleeps.
"I'm not." Steve exhales. "I'm not. I'm just not going to leave you in the middle of your trial prep, Buck."
"In the middle of?" Bucky voices back incredulously. "There isn't even a trial yet and there is nothing more left to prep."
"There's gotta be more-"
"But there isn't," Bucky cuts him off. "Steve, we’ve been at this for years. We've gone through everything. Murdock's done it thrice, Nelson's done it, like, six times, bless his soul. Look at this file, Rogers. I've been through it twice since last night."
Steve's own copy of all the material sat at his desk, highlighted and annotated. The way the case was being dealt with was unusual, but the case itself was unusual. He didn't really know enough about the legal system to argue either.
"The only reason we're waiting is so that I can take some time off before we let the government know I'm here," he reminds. "Otherwise we're done, we just gotta get my ass back to the States and we're ready to go."
Steve bites the inside of his lip, out of Bucky's sight. The angle isn't very flattering. He's long given up on trying to look presentable.
"It's not right."
"Look, Steve." Bucky picks up a file again. "You've done enough. I can handle a month."
"A month and a half, maybe."
"Even better." He gives him a sly smile. "Shuri says if she has to see your dumb face moping around here anymore she's gonna get you banned from entering the country."
Steve rolls his eyes. "I don't mope."
"Sure ya don't. Gettin' sick of it m'self, gotta tell you," Bucky says blankly. "T'Challa's got all these people working on the case. Figuring out a timeline. Once we tell the authorities I'm here, I either gotta surrender myself or get extradited. Either way, I won't be back for another few months at least."
Steve says nothing.
"Go on your little road trip. Stop worrying 'bout me." Bucky shifts in his seat. "Technically I'm on vacation, too."
Steve says nothing.
"Once I'm back, you can help me move into my jail cell, how about that?"
Steve's silence only intensifies.
"You're a ray of sunshine," Bucky says. "Love how you can take a joke."
"Bucky."
"Steve," he mocks, voice low. "I've been on my own since '45. I can handle it."
Even if he doesn't mean it like that, Steve feels an ache shoot through him in embarrassment. Bucky doesn't notice; he probably didn't even realise what he said.
"Plus, it's not the stone ages. I'll call you if I need anything, but I'm tellin' you, there's nothing. You've seen all the evidence. Only thing that's left is prepping for the stand, and they're only doing it after the therapist gives them the go-ahead to start poking in there." His index finger points to his temple.
Bucky's hair had grown long enough to curl lightly at his shoulder blades. He usually kept it tied up and out of his face but it hung loose today, forcing him to push back strands that kept covering his eyes as he read. Even through the phone, Steve could tell he looked better, dark circles faded significantly.
"They'll call you too. Grill your ass 'bout how much you love me."
"I don't."
"Should be easy then," he replies breezily, leafing through a folder. “Did you know I was apparently in Paris at some point? You’d think I'd remember the tower, but no. Turns out I just got stabbed.”
“Buck,” Steve says sternly.
“Sorry, sorry.” He holds up the file. “I got shot too.”
"Bucky."
"Just go." Bucky grins. "You can come back here and look at all these fun numbers.”
Steve shakes his head, pressing the heel of his palm into his eyes. The last two times he'd been to Wakanda, he had nothing to do. He met Bucky's goats. Ate a tomato he grew (it was still a little green but Bucky was damn proud of it. Best tomato Steve’d ever eaten). The rest was the same as the last few visits.
"If you don't wanna go for some other reason-" Bucky sneaks him a glance -"then don't. But don't let it be 'cause of me. Hell, I'd join too if I wasn't across an ocean. And gotten an invite."
He thinks it’s something to consider once Bucky can walk freely.
“You’re not doing a bad thing, Rogers," Bucky adds, tone a little more gentle this time. “You’re not a bad person. Stop beating yourself up about this and just go.”
Wasn’t he? He wasn’t a good person, that’s for sure. 
Who the fuck even is he anymore?
"You sure?" Steve asks warily, the unease still lapping at him. 
"Get me a souvenir," Bucky says. "Bet it'd look great next to my prison bed."
___
"Captain?"
Steve's eyes snap towards the person in front of him. Dark suit, hair brushed back.
"Yes?" he asks again and ignores the feeling that he's done this before.
"I asked if you'd gotten the email for the fundraiser."
Steve's eyes glance towards his left. It's almost like Mona reads his mind because she's already halfway through pulling out a folder from an even bigger folder.
"We did," she confirms. "We'll let you know about his availability. June is a tough month."
Steve looks down at his glass of water, determined to not let it show on his face that he's got no fucking idea what she's talking about.
The water ripples as Steve lifts it, but if someone were to ask, he isn't sure he ever drank it or not.
___
Steve stares at the red on his skin, wondering where it came from. It stretches down his skin like a long, raw scar before diluting at his jaw.
God, didn't that happen yesterday? Did he cut himself again? Or--wait, was it the day before yesterday? 
Where was the fucking shaving cream– why was he shaving without shaving cream?
His phone chimes with a text alert from Mona. He sees from the home screen that it's a schedule for today. It started the same as always, with her cheerful 'Good morning. Here's the plan for the day'. And usually, it could be boiled down to meeting people he couldn't stand, people he was still treading the fence about, and lunch.
When he looks up at the mirror, the red has begun to dry, forming little crusts that cracked when he opened his mouth.
Steve blinks and it's gone, and there's a wet towel on the sink.
Dinner is something. Chicken. Rice. Something healthy, there's some greens in there. He watches some sitcoms and laughs when the laugh track plays even when the joke isn't all that funny.
He eats his chicken and wonders whether 2am is too early to take a shower.
"You got any food in you or is that all you’ve been taking in all day?” He makes a mention to the cigarette that was almost halfway done.
“Jeanie managed to get us some soup. Should last us a few days if we divide it up real nice.”
“We got some extra bread.”
“Nah, Rogers.” The teen flicks the tail end of the smoke, getting rid of the extra ash. “We’ll be all right. Save that for another day.”
Steve jolts up when the familiar feeling of falling hits him. But the couch is still underneath him and the TV's moved on to another late-night rerun. The laugh track is mundane but feels like it's directed at him.
The plate clangs on the ground-- he's glad he's invested in metal ones after the first few times it happened.
He rubs his eyes, hand reaching out for his phone.
3:30am.
Steve pulls on a jacket and some well worn sneakers. It can't be too early for a run.
___
“Captain?”
Steve snaps back. “Yes?”
___
Dinner is lunch? Pasta? 
No, he ate rice for lunch. 
2:00am.
Why the fuck is he eating dinner at 2am?
___
“Rogers?”
“Please, it’s Steve,” he repeats, shaking hands with a polite smile.
“Steve. Thank you for the advertisement you did for us. Sales really rocketed.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Steve feels the scab on his skin. Scraped again?
___
5:20am.
Steve laughs with the laugh track.
Was this who he was? Laughing at some joke he wouldn’t be able to remember even with a gun to his head?
He shovels another soon of cereal into his mouth and discards the rest in the sink.
___
“Captain?”
“He’s not available, sorry,” Mona cuts in curtly as she walks swiftly beside him. “You can schedule a meeting with me, though.”
Steve looks at her when they round a corner. “Who was that?”
“Um–” Mona scrolls through her tablet. “Senator–”
___
“5am is not too early for a run,” he repeats to himself in assurance under his breath, tugging his shoes on. 
He stops to look in the mirror and it is empty. There should be dark circles and stubble and pale skin from not seeing the light of day. His skin glows. There is hardly a line on his face.
“Shave when you get back,” he says aloud, and his voice is hoarse from hours of unuse. 
He swaps out the elevator for the stairs, bounding down quietly. 5am was still early for his neighbours. 
He pushes open the door to his apartment and--
It is pitch black.
Steve takes a step outside, head turned up to the sky. 
It is dark, cloudy and deafeningly silent.
Steve’s eyebrows pull together.
He digs his phone out of his pocket to check the time.
2am.
He thought it was 5.
___
“Captain–”
“My opinion isn’t going to change, Senator.”
“What?” 
Steve’s attention drags him back to harsh fluorescent lighting and the smell of astringent hand sanitiser.
“I said you’re free to go.” The doctor flips the pages on his clipboard. “Good as new.”
“Serum, am I right?” he tries for a joke. It’s not even funny. He feels like a sitcom.
“Miracle of science.” The doctor graces him with a smile that seems almost pitiful. “Just try to get some sunlight. Your vitamin D’s a little low, but you’re cleared.”
“Great,” he says. Cleared for what, exactly?
___
“Mona.” Steve rubs his temples.
“Coffee?”
“Please.”
___
Steve watches his food spin around in the microwave. 
It goes on endlessly, for ages and ages. He's mesmerised.
It finally beeps and he yanks it out.
He takes a bite. The center is still cold.
___
“Captain–”
“Senator.”
“It’s Councilwoman,” Mona whispers from beside him.
“Councilwoman,” Steve corrects. “My apologies. Woke up on the wrong side of the bed.”
“We’ve all been there.” She smiles kindly at him. He thinks she’s one of the only people he likes. “Now about your tweets, we’d really appreciate if you didn’t go against the organization that’s been, you know–”
He thinks he doesn’t like her.
Steve’s attention returns to his phone as she rattles on about why he should lend his public support to some fucking businessman who had stakes in some place for some reason. If he tweeted against him, it was probably for good reason.
You’ve sent him a meme.
The corners of his mouth curl up slightly.
“So we believe it’s in everybody’s best interest that you–”
“No,” Steve says resolutely, gaze rising up again. “My condolences, but I don’t think I’ll be doing that. Now can we continue to more important issues?”
___
Steve tries a drama for once, instead of a comedy.
Three episodes in and he has no idea what the hell has happened so far.
He checks his phone. 
12:43am.
Too early for a run. 
He gets ready for a shower.
___
Steve walks out, towel around his waist and hoodie covering his chest. His hair is slicked back, still dripping water down his back. 
His phone chimes with another notification.
1:40am
Steve waits for it to download, one hand on his waist.
From Y/N
(image attached)
From Y/N
Why on earth are you awake this late?
From Steve:
Could ask you the same thing. Don’t you have work tomorrow?
From Y/N:
Don’t you have an interview with CNN tomorrow?
From Steve:
Steve’s eyebrows furrow as he looks up, racking his brain to remember if he did have something lined up.
How do you know my schedule better than me?
From Y/N:
They tweeted about it, Steve
He smiles, barely listening to his dinner spin around in the microwave.
From Y/N:
Why are you up?
From Steve:
Got in late.
From Y/N:
Go to sleep
From Steve:
You first.
From Y/N:
What are you, my dad?
From Y/N:
Kidding, I’m going. Have fun in your lil interview. Give me a shoutout
From Steve:
Keep your ears peeled.
From Steve:
Goodnight.
From Y/N:
Better not see you awake after this, Rogers
Steve pulls his eyes away from his phone when the microwave beeps dramatically.
From Y/N:
Goodnight. Talk to you tomorrow ily
He pulls his food out carefully. It’s the worst looking slice of pizza he’d ever seen, but he drops it onto a plate anyway and walks toward his couch.
2:00am.
He’s seen these reruns before. Twice, actually.
Steve takes a bite. It’s stone cold.
The laugh track plays again. His lip twitches. 
Steve takes another bite and swallows it down without thinking too much. 
He switches the channel. Someone advertises something he doesn’t want. 
He switches the channel. His face. The channel changes faster.
Steve takes a bite. Winces and chews slowly, purposefully. The channel switches.
Laugh track. Steve bites the crust. His face.
3am? 
The plate’s discarded. He’s got a box of cereal. The channel switches.
Steve takes a spoonful. Advertisement. 
Interview today. Fuck. 
He takes a bite. Parade promo. 
___
“Captain?”
“Yes?”
___
Channel switches. CNN? Who the fuck was he talking to?
Steve chews on muesli. 
Laugh track.  
He swallows. Advertisement. Laugh track. He laughs.
Muesli. Interview at 9. 
____
Steve drags the razor over his chin. 
He swishes it around in the water, and there is red that mixes with dissolving foam.
____
He checks his phone. Muesli. Steve laughs.
It’s been half an hour. It’s still 3am.
Steve chews. Advertisement. 
He laughs. Muesli. He laughs. Swallows. 
Laugh track. Spoonful.
____
“Captain?”
“Yes?”
___
Dry pizza.
Steve laughs.
Steve pulls on his shoes and checks the time.
___
Something suddenly flips in him. He doesn't have a name for it.
Laugh track.
___
Fuck.
___
Steve exhales, tucking his phone into his pocket before he could send a retraction.
To Y/N:
Let's do it. Road trip. I'm in.
It was done now. 
He couldn't go back.
___
It hardly takes a few seconds for the notification to ring out in an empty apartment.
____
From Y/N:
Fuck yes. You won’t regret this.
As much as he wishes this trip is for you and for the two of you only, he knows it is simply one small part of it. 
Steve stares down at the phone, knowing he will.
Mostly, it drags him out of he darkness and into a spotlight. There was no turning back now, he couldn’t hide it behind absence. 
There is still time, though. To somehow conjure up a way to tell you about the dreams and the docks and the sun on his face. Of dog tags and disinfectant on his torn skin and toffee from corner stores.
It gives him time to tell you he’s thinking of going back to the past.

Beach Days With The Genshin Characters!
Wc:1.7k
Type: Headcanons
CW: umm nothing except mentions of alcohol and maybe some people being creeps? (Dw tho none of the chars or you is doing the creeping and it’s really brief
A/N: These we’re supposed to be a lot shorter but I got too excited and here we are lmao. If you wanna see some of your favs in this scenario lmk! Requests are currently open (and not just for this one prompt! Also! Repost from my old blog!
Tumblr media
♡Diluc:
This man cannot swim. Tell me otherwise, I dare you.
Kaeya tried to jokingly push him off a lil diving cliff area when they were kids.
He almost drowned. Kaeya was in a lot of trouble.
So, good luck getting this man to actually get in the water. The most he’ll do is sit on the shore where it’s very shallow.
He usually prefers to just stay under an umbrella on the sand and keep an eye on you.
Calls you every two hours in advance and helps you reapply sunscreen.
He’s very pale so I feel like he burns pretty easily, meaning he needs to reapply super frequently otherwise he will become a tomato. He brings like three bottles of the good shit. Tch, rich boy.
If you ask him to build a sandcastle, he will pretend to be annoyed but do it anyways. Ends up finding it kind of enjoyable.
He has the maids prepare a nice picnic basket for the two of you!! It’s got all your favorite foods plus grape juice cuz y’know.
If any creepy peeps approach you, don’t worry. He brought his vision and his claymore.
Of course, he won’t have to resort to such violent lengths. Everyone in Mondstadt knows who Diluc is and they probably know you’re his s/o, so they’re usually smart enough to mind their own business.
If they don’t, don’t worry. Diluc’s glare is more than enough to scare them away.
All in all I definitely recommend a beach day with him! I’ll give it a solid 8/10 (-2 for not wearing floaties and getting in the water with you or letting you teach him how to swim.
Tumblr media
♡Albedo:
You guys definitely 100% take Klee out with you on a beach day.
You guys bring snacks, beach toys like buckets and shovels for optimal sandcastle building, a picnic blanket, etc.
Jean definitely packs a lot more stuff for you guys to take with you than you actually need.
It’s only cuz she’s worried for Klee and is nervous about not being able to go with you guys though! It’s very sweet really.
Klee tries to bomb the fish and cause havoc at the beach 😭
I think Albedo is a good swimmer and gets in with you and Klee so that he can help her (which is very cute omfg)
He’s set total workaholic, as we know, so it took a lot of convincing to get him to put down his experiments and accompany you to the beach (however, he’s particularly weak to yours and klee’s puppy dog eyes so he caved eventually)
Though, looking at you and Klee happily building sandcastles and decorating them with pretty seashells of all shapes and colors, he can’t really find it in himself to complain.
He, of course, takes this opportunity to take out his sketchbook and draw the waves, seagulls, you… Of course he won’t let you see the sketch book no sir. He’s a bit embarrassed to be honest, but an artist such as himself recognizes beauty when he sees it so he simply had to draw you. (God I love him so much)
If a creepy person approaches you,- well don’t worry. The sight of a small arsonist child blowing up fish is enough to scare them away 🥰
At the end of the day, all three of you are all ticketed out. Albedo has to carry Klee back to Mondstadt because the poor baby fell asleep the moment you started drying her hair with the beach towel. You’re, of course, carrying back Dodoco and your bags. (You also manage to sneak a peak at Albedo’s sketchbook and find some very pretty drawings of you and Klee with your sandcastle)
At the end of the day, you guys tuck Klee in and read her a bedtime story (she woke up and insisted). Afterwards Albedo takes you back home and thanks you for coming with you and Klee (which you ofc say wasn’t a problem because how could you not???)
All in all? I’ll give it a solid 10/10. You’ve got tasty food, fun times, your boyfriend and his cute kid adoptive sister (yes I am very biased idc)
Tumblr media
♡Xiao:
I think it would take a lot of convincing to get Xiao to go out on a beach date with you.
He’ll probably see it as a distraction getting in the way of his slaying of monsters and demons.
However, he also worships the grounds you walk on (hehe, simp XD), so I don’t think it’ll take that much convincing on your part (especially because it’s is self appointed duty to keep you safe so if you insist on going with or without him, he supposes he’ll have to go)
Is definitely a bit tense at first. He doesn’t know how to let loose and chill so while you’re sun tanning on a beach chair he’s like 🧍‍♂️ahdgshjsjd
Eventually calms down a bit though! You get him to relax and eat some almond tofu you brought along with you. It definitely gets him to perk up.
I don’t think he would mind getting into the water but I do think he’d rather walk along the shore and collect pretty seashells and sea glass.
He later gives the ones he deems pretties to you (he hands them over to you with a blush on his face and pretends it’s not a big deal and he definitely gets all pouty and grouchy when you coo at how adorable he is)
As for creeps, Xiao is both intimidating and well known in Liyue. No one is brave enough (or, let’s be honest, dumb enough) to approach you with any bad intentions.
Sure, Xiao has sworn never to harm a human/citizen of Liyue but that doesn’t mean he can’t scare the absolute shit out of them.
I think Xiao would definitely enjoy a beach day 🥺🥺. He’d find it very relaxing to go out with you and just hear the sound of waves and feel the sand under his feet.
He’d definitely hint at wanting to do it again later. Of course, he won’t tell you. No, that’s a foolish mortal activity and he has much better things to do.
Wait no, don't turn around, yes he will go with you next month.
All in all, I give Xiao a 9/10. It’s a very relaxing day (which he deserves 😤). And you get to see a whole new side of him.
Tumblr media
♡Ningguang:
OK SO ORIGINALLY I WASN'T GONNA WRITE ONE FOR HER (at least not in this post) BUT THEN I THOUGHT OF LADY NINGGUANG TAKING YOU TO A WHOLE ASS PRIVATE BEACH
She knows you don’t care about how exclusive the beach you go to is (in fact, the fact that you don’t care about where you are or what you do is one of the things that make her fall more and more madly in love with you) but you deserve the best so she’s gonna go all out.
She’s a busy lady so days like this where the two of you get to go somewhere and be together are few and far between.
She knows it’s hard to be in a relationship with someone who is busy 24/7, so she appreciates how you remain by her side despite all hardships. (Y’all are a whole ass power couple istg)
The two of you spend your day relaxing. Sun bathing, drinking piña coladas, maybe taking a dip in the ocean. It’s all very pleasant!
Ningguang doesn’t quite feel like the type of person who would sit in the sand and make sandcastle, however you’re more than welcome to make some yourself. She finds it endearing <3
If you insist on her helping, she’ll eventually comply. She loves you too much to say no. I feel like she’ll either be terrible at it or like a total architect.
Sand is technically like tiny rocks right? So maybe she can use her vision to help her? If that’s the case, she’s making a replica of the Jade chamber out of sand.
If any creepy person comes up to you don’t worry. Ningguang will buy the whole beach and then use her right of admission as owner to permanently ban them from the beach you’re at.
The only downside to a day at the beach with Ningguang might be that there’s a big chance she’ll be called to tend urgent matters, seeing as she is the Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing and all.
If that does happen, she’ll be sure to make it up to you somehow, whether it be rescheduling or taking care of the matter as soon as possible so that the two of you can get back to your day of relaxation and fun.
All in all?? Lady Ningguang will treat you like total royalty and the two of you will have an amazing time! I give her an 11/10 (she would literally buy a whole beach for you to be comfortable I mean c’mon)
Tumblr media
♡Venti:
BEACH DAYS WITH HIM ARE SO FUN!!
Swimming? Yeah, he’d love to! Sunbathing? Sure! He’ll even conjure up a light breeze for the two of you. Sandcastle building? WELL OF COURSE WHY DO YOU THING HE BROUGHT ALL THESE BUCKETS AND SHOVELS?
No but seriously, he might be the best person out of everyone here to go to the beach with. He’s fun, free spirited, and he’s a traveling bard who’s been alive long enough to know where all the best beaches in Teyvat are. (He also knows a guy- er, well, dragon I suppose- who is willing to fly them to any place).
He’ll play some soft tunes while you doze under the sun.
HE PICKS PRETTY SHELLS AND GIFTS THEM TO YOU!!!
He will bring booze. I’m pretty sure this is a necessity. If you’re a little upset about it, he’ll probably “eheh~” his way out of it. That slick bastard.
If you really insist on him not drinking, he won’t consume much alcohol.
If some creepy person approaches you and tries to ruin you your day of beach time fun, all of their stuff will suddenly be blown away, causing them to scramble back to their spot and (almost embarrassingly) flail around trying to catch everything. What a shame…
At the end of the day, he’d be a little sad to leave. Definitely makes plans about tbe two of you going back soon.
I gotta give him a 10/10 he’s just so fun omg.

"I used to like to draw his picture"
(Ponyboy said he used to like drawing Dallas, so here is a lil thing I made that I may or may not post on ao3)
(NOT A SHIP FIC!!)
"Alright, kid, but make it quick." A 14 year old Dallas said to the 11 year old Ponyboy, who was practically beaming.
"Yes!" Ponyboy cheered, taking Dallas's hand and pulling him to the Curtis house.
Once there, Ponyboy made Dallas sit on the couch and wait so he could get his art supplies. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis giggled and stared at an awkward Dallas, trying to flip his hair around so it looked good for the picture.
"Be careful, Dally," Mrs. Curtis giggled, "if you let him do this, he'll do it again."
Dallas couldn't help but blush at the comment. If he had to pick anyone to hang out with in the greaser gang that wasn't Johnny, he'd pick Ponyboy any day, no matter what Steve would say.
Once Ponyboy returned with his markers and sketchbook and broken pens, he showed Dally how to sit for this rare moment. They finally settled on Dally throwing his arms around the couch and looking to the right. The blinds were slightly open, giving the room a nice, blue look to it.
Ponyboy brought a lamp over and shined it on Dally while he closed the curtains.
"Alright, alright, I said make it quick." Dallas grumbled sourly. "Fine, fine." Ponyboy pouted.
Ponyboy was in a chair across from him and would nitpick at Dally for better posture and how he needed to stay still, but Dally was natrually fidgety.
"Can I see it, yet?" Dallas groaned, turning his eyes but not his head over. "No, now look to your right still."
When the front door opened and closed, well, more like slammed, and the other gang members walked through, they wondered why Dally was sitting like that.
"What in the hell...Alright, Ponyboy, stop torturing Dally with your dumb games." Darry sighed, and went to flick the light on. The light turned on and couldn't help but make Dally hiss while Ponyboy contoured, "Hey!"
"Jeez, the big baby's got his next victim, I see." Steve snickered.
Ponyboy was gonna object, but decided against it. Dally noticed, but didn't move from the pose Ponyboy asked of him.
"C'mon, Dally, that pose outta be uncomfortable--" "Johnny, turn the light back off." Dally interrupted Steve.
The gang froze, including Ponyboy, who had already begun packing up his art supplies. In a matter of mere seconds, the light was out and everyone else was sitting in the kitchen while the light continued to shine down on Dally.
"It's done," Ponyboy said, "you can move now." Dally stood and stretched out his shoulders before walking over next to Ponyboy.
"Man," Dally chuckled, "you really got my hair just right, huh?"
Ponyboy beamed in happiness.
"You think so?" He asked, a big grin from ear to ear. Dally nodded. "Yeah, can I keep it?"
Ponyboy eagerly shook his head, handing the drawing to Dally. Dally smiled gently and ruffled Ponyboy's hair.
"I gotta bounce, tell the gang I left to see Sylvia." Dally smiled and folded the picture and put it in his wallet. "Oh, okay."
Ponyboy stared down at Dallas's wallet after finding it in the year 1970. It had been 5 years since they were gone. Yet it still felt like they were still here.
Ponyboy opened Dallas's wallet, expecting to find a few quarters and a little photo of Johnny, but it was empty. Ponyboy sighed and threw it across the room, but a piece of paper fell out.
Ponyboy walked over, picking up and unfolding the piece of folded, crinkled paper.
At last, it was the photo Ponyboy had drawn for Dallas.
Then, Ponyboy added an additional note into "The Outsiders".
"I used to like to draw his picture."

Give headcanon for merc.
(Sorry I been taking so long to get to these, I’ve been dealing with the sudden death of my baby bird, life has been kinda terrible this week)
NOTE: There will be some suggestive stuff in here but most of it is for comedic purposes
General merc headcanons:
Scout:
-my boi got adhd like you would not believe
-The poor bastard cannot focus on anything for the life of him, no matter how hard he tries
-One of the reasons why he has trouble with reading, he was never really able to focus enough to figure it out, as that’s something that takes a LOT of time and a LOT of focus.
-Really talented artist tho! He loves drawing and keeps a sketchbook or two in his room! He likes to doodle before bed each night, it helps him calm down
-Somehow gay and homophobic at the same time
-Would absolutely lose his shit over the blue lobster meme no matter how old it gets
Soldier:
-My goofy ahh uncle
-The physical embodiment of “he a lil confused, but he got the spirit”
-Bro does not give a FUCK what anyone else thinks and I respect the hell out of that
-The men in his family were all in the military, which is one of the reasons why he’s obsessed
-secretly very insecure that he never actually made it into the official military
-Puts up a front so he can avoid feeling like a disappointment sometimes
-Solly is one of those people that sleeps like a LOG. Literally nothing can wake him up other than his own internal clock, which conveniently goes off at 6am.
-It is at this point in the morning when he goes around the base and attempts to make everyone else get up. Most are not pleased.
-Bi as fuck. He kisses men. He kisses women. He literally does not care, a beautiful person is a beautiful person, son.
-He calls his partner “son”.
Pyro:
-He is my son
-I love my son so much I am so proud of him for just existing.
-Pyro’s name is Ernesto
-His mask is literally just his face, like the plague doctor SCP. What appears to be clothing is actually just his body.
-He is from another planet, and the oxygen in our atmosphere has hallucinatory effects on members of his species
-Poor baby is basically in a haze 100 percent of the time :( but he does his absolute best!
-He literally only wants to spread peace, love, and flower power
-Fire makes him feel nice, because it’s bright and it’s warm. Fire is friendly and comforting. It helps ground him in this strange world.
Demo:
-Under-appreciated as fuck holy shit
-Probably one of the most hardworking people on the team, if not THE most
-This guy is doing multiple jobs at once in addition to his demanding work as a mercenary.
-He’s actually super smart! He may not act like it when he’s super drunk, but he seriously does know what he’s doing
-Chemistry EXPERT. Can he please help me with my chem 101 homework I literally could never. I know he’s smart because chemistry is fucking impossible and he loves the subject
-sometimes works with Engie to develop new types of bombs!
-My theory is that he turned to alcohol in order to cope with the chronic burnout he must be facing by working so many jobs at once. Just helps him check out of life for a while, but unfortunately that comes at the cost of his liver.
-Fr tho how the fuck is he even alive, he drinks HYDROGEN PEROXIDE at one point, which isn’t even related to alcohol at all, it’s literally just a poisonous chemical💀
-I have reason to believe he now has epilepsy as a result of medic damaging his hippocampus while scooping his brain, I made a post about this a while ago if you’re interested in more details
-He is very much in need of a hug
-I love him so much
-You’re doin good lad
Heavy:
-One of the smartest people on the team, despite what you might perceive at first glance.
-The only reason he may sound “dumb” to some people is because English is his second language, and he has a very hard time speaking it.
-Fr tho English sucks, I have no idea how people learn it later in life on their own
-In the Russian dub of meet the heavy, he speaks a lot more eloquently. Definitely strikes me as the type of person to have a PhD in Russian literature.
-His dream was to one day become an author, but mercenary work got in the way because it was the best way to provide for his family overseas.
-He still writes from time to time in a small notebook he keeps by his bed, in the hopes that one day he’ll publish something
-He will
-Gay AF
-The literal definition of a Bear
-His guns are his babies, he literally loves them like they’re his children.
-Honestly I feel that way about my PC so I get it😭
Engie:
-Also a very underrated character
-Ties with medic for Smartest On The Team
-Engie just puts his genius towards more practical (and less unhinged) use
-I mean clearly he’s not TOTALLY stable, he did cut off his own arm to attach the gunslinger
-Always felt the need to prove himself growing up. Because of where he’s from, people tended to assume he was kinda stupid based on stereotypes. He obviously ended up proving everyone wrong.
-Is autistic and has OCD. He needs to do things a certain way or he can get extremely upset, especially in his workshop. It’s his safe space that is not to be invaded unless he is expecting you.
-Acts like a father figure to pyro. Basically the only one who isn’t unsettled by him (other than maybe medic)
-He definitely takes pyro fishing on the weekends
-Very talented singer, but he’ll absolutely deny it if you tell him. He’s super humble about everything
-But nah everyone else always loves to listen to him sing and play the guitar when they’re all hanging out at the fire pit.
-He’s such a dad I love him
Medic:
-Medic is my wife
-Smartest member of the team along with Engie
-Actually very strong! He lifted soldier up by the collar in expiration date, and he’s gotta weigh at LEAST 250.
-Also carries around heavy equipment all day, and is STILL the second fastest runner on the team, only behind scout.
-Medic is actually a pretty big dude. It’s just hard to notice when he’s standing next to heavy who is an actual giant. I think medic is canonically like 6’1 or something. Big dude. Wide shoulder. Booba. 👍
-Of course he looks small when he’s near heavy, EVERYONE looks small standing next to heavy
-Bi medic Bi medic Bi medic Bi medic
-Contrary to popular belief, he DOES indeed have the title of “Doctor”. In order to get a medical license in the first place, you are required to complete med school and obtain an MD or DO degree. Licensure and degrees are two separate things. You can lose a license, but you can’t be stripped of the education you already learned. The title of “Doctor” comes with a degree, not a license, as we have seen with engineer and Heavy’s PhD’s.
-He’s autistic with a special interest in medicine! If he’s not actively in battle, his in his lab working on shit. He LOVES it. It’s basically the only subject he cares about (source: am autistic w/ medical special interest. Am I projecting? Maybe but oh well)
-He very clearly knows what he’s doing, even though his methods are kinda fucked💀
-He’s succeeded in literally raising the dead multiple times in addition to inventing all of his healing devices completely his own.
-Hangs out with Engie when he’s not working on stuff, they both enjoy building/inventing devices and they enjoy talking about their shared special interests. He is closest with Engie and heavy out of everyone on the team.
-The only one that knows pyro is an SCP
-He’s a hoe. A massive hoe
-we are married
Sniper:
-Emotions are scary and Should Not Exist
-Also autistic! The man has literally no idea how to speak to other humans, and talks to himself constantly (am autistic, can confirm)
-MASSIVE introvert, has to retreat to his van a couple times a day to recharge
-He likes to draw birds he sees while on the job!
-Likes plain black coffee which I will never understand it’s so fucking bitter literally wh
-Doesn’t like people to know he’s somehow only 27 years old despite looking like he could be my dad when in reality he’s only like 7.5 years older than me
-He could be my brother but he looks like he could be my dad wtf
-One of those lucky bastards who doesn’t burn in the sun easily, he’s outside constantly
-His ideal place to be would be outdoors on a nice sunny day. A wide open area with no one else around.
-Puts his hat over his face when he sleeps because of course he does
-He Is Not Straight
Spy:
-Pan, poly
-Canonically enjoys his romances “in groups of six”
-Spy hosts orgies guys, valve’s words not mine
-Sigma chad, has fucked your mom and will do it again
-Is not aware that he smells terrible from smoking all the time
-God knows how many children he’s left behind because he’s afraid of staying in any type of committed relationship
-Very similar to sniper in that emotions are Scary
-Speaks every language known to mann
-He absolutely has a sex dungeon. In this video he literally has plans to “remodel his dungeon”:
https://youtu.be/IIoBW__Y8DY
youtube
-WHAT OTHER KIND OF DUNGEON WOULD HE HAVE
-ITS A SEX DUNGEON
-HE’S HAD IT LONG ENOUGH THAT IT NEEDS REMODELING
-Probably has the best social skills out of anyone else on the team
-Possibly a sociopath? Or just very good at hiding his intentions and motivations
-Spy is awesome but also I love making fun of him
-Haha skinny legg mann
Im so sorry poor anon asked this like a month ago😭😭 but I wanted to be really thorough with my headcanons!! I hope you like em and feel free to ask me more shit :))

Doing more sketchbooking for Eternal Ashes! (Lore-Dump under the Cut)
Mostly developing Kane more, and figuring out Reset's childhood vibes. Kane was the oldest of the "2nd generation" and he basically was the best thing the multiverse had to a peaceful mediator. He was adored by everyone, and worked hard to maintain that position. He could usually talk down either Ink or Error from fighting, and Dream and Nightmare usually didn't like to fight infront of him. As the son of Death and Resistance of Death, he has magic that correlates a bit to Purgatory. A between-world where Souls linger when they have unresolved conflicts from life. He wasn't above using the Souls he could contact to dissuade either side of the fight.
As Kane grew more known, he got a little posse of other kids following him, mainly consisting of Reset (his lil bro), Shotput (Dream+Killer's son), and Haphazard (Ink+Error's son). Hap was the least invested, but any time his parents weren't tearing holes in the multiverse was time he appreciated and owed to Kane. Then Shotput wanted to be like Kane and bring peace. Of course Reset followed him, they were siblings.
When Kane died, the treaty of the multiverse was brought about, and the duty of keeping the multiverse stable and true to the truce fell to Haphazard's shoulders. He didn't want the pressure, but took it on anyways as the 2nd eldest. Shotput was destroyed by Kane's death and ended up hardly ever leaving Dream's side fir several years. Reset, also broken without his older brother, stayed with Geno in the Save Screen for a few years (out of sight of the rest of the Multiverse) until he started training at Nightmare's.
And, I don't talk about the parents much, but I must mention: Reset got really into his training when he was 12, and rarely stopped at home by the time he was 13. He lived at Nightmare's castle for a while. Geno and Reaper didn't even see him until it was revealed that he'd been massacuring AUs. And at that point, the boy who was fleeing the scene of a crime with his friend, covered in dust and blood? He looked so uncannily like their older son who they'd lost so many years before. I mean, it makes sense that their children would look similar, they weren't perfect copies, but Reset still wore Kane's old cloak, and he wielded a scythe just like Reaper and Kane had. Geno had been distraught, but he kept to himself. Reaper had almost immediately fallen back into his grief. They couldn't get in touch with Reset, because he was on the run. They'd practically lost a second son, and they couldn't puzzle out why.
Also, when Reset finally revives Kane, Kane comes back at the age he died. He's been in stasis. He doesn't feel like any time has passed. Meanwhile, Reset is 18 and an adult. He's going to be in huge trouble for everything he did to get his brother back. Reset is a stranger to his own brother. He knew that it would happen, but it surprises him to realize just how much changed. How much stayed the same.
Tumblr media
Oh! Bonus Reaper + Geno! Poorly drawn, but basically, the boys get their long faces + sharpe features from Reaper, and their more gentle features from Geno. (Also, I think the freckles for Kane are from Geno's side, while Reset's magic that gives him his "freckles" comes from Reaper.)

have you made the house md ocs yet?
so, about that!
short answer: yes! yea i have :D
longer answer: yeaaa i did but.. making oc is always tough for me because i never seem to get attached enough to them to keep pushing through and developing them. being the only fan in a fandom where YOU have to create the source material is not really my jam haha. i have much more fun engaging with other peoples oc’s and characters from existing media.
but for you, i’ll commit to making a proper sheet for him. for now, here’s a little (very bare bones) overview of my guy!
introducing Max! he’s 33 (at the time of season one, based on my hopefully correct math of everyone else’s ages.) and an elementary teacher! he exists in the same universe as @privatehousesanatomy ‘s oc kadee. he lives in the same apartment building as her and house, which is how they become friends at first! he does graphic design on the side and while his family helped put him through school for his bachelors in elementary education he’s hoping putting himself through for a masters in graphic design. he comes from an asian background (his family is from the middle east, they immigrated in the late 70’s) and he is bilingual (i love any excuse to use my family’s language in my fandoms, an oc you can project on is the perfect way lol) he loves listening to classical music while he draws, his favorite things to draw are still life and portraits. he is an only child. a little physical description of him; he’s got chase ish length thick black wavy hair (difference between their haircuts is that max’s bangs are longer so they go down to his chin) which he usually pins back, dark brown eyes, an oval face, he’s about 5’10
here are some VERY early, on the fly sketches of him (both when i was in artblock AND i lost my sketchbook for a hot minute hence the lined paper😭double whammy)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the one on the left, those marks around max’s eye are where i erased glasses many times. originally he was going to have glasses but it’s not been set in stone, idk if i’ll keep them (yes that is wilson, i heavily referenced a @/noahdea.art drawing and ran with it, second one was just me messing around fully pulled out my ass that’s why it looks a lil jank but wtvr)
so yeah that’s kinda all i have of him! thanks for sending in that ask @former-lurker it pushed me to flesh him out just a little more. y’all pls feel free to ask me more about him and just lmk what you think!! this was actually super fun and helps/encourages me to delve into him and his world a bit more each time and who knows maybe this one will finally stick.

How about a modern reincarnation AU where Jean's at a pretty horrible point in his life and that's the time he meets Marco? Because, canonically, Marco understands points about Jean that even Jean himself doesn't understand/fails to see... I just feel like it'd be a good time to Jean to meet someone who ends up understanding him and seeing his good points, allowing him to see himself and his possibilities through the eyes of someone who managed to see the real him.
Ughh I love this dynamic so much and agree 100/10. Thank you for sending it in, these kind of discussions are great and have such super character-study vibes for me!
And you’ve got a great point, because Marco’s role served Jean’s character, so of course in a reincarnation au he’d be doing the same.
The question is, what would Jean’s horrible point in life be?
Could be anything that fits the given context really, but if we’re sticking to what Marco would help best with, we can narrow it down.
1. Jean’s leadership.
2. Jean’s self confidence.
4. Jean’s home life (technically a headcanon that Marco would help with this, though we know Jean has a complex relationship with his mother).
Or if you wanna be funky we can lump them all together (which is definitely what I’ll be doing for the sake of this post 👌)
(Though I’ll list some extra lil ideas for fancy au’s at the bottom of the post, just for fun)
All beneath the cut ☺️
Let’s say they’re young - younger than 15. I’m talking OVA A Sudden Visitor flashback young.
Jean has had a sheltered childhood so far, he lives in Trost and everyone knows Trost is well-off. His mother is doting, caring, and incredibly loving of her only child. (We know nothing about his father, just that he has one).
Jean gets picked on as a kid, potentially because he’s so sheltered and insecure. He loves his mum, he turns to her for support, but he’s still sheltered enough that being bullied takes its toll pretty seriously.
He has no self confidence, he’s a home-body, he hates change. So jumping between grades is probably a horrific period of life for him.
That’s where Marco comes in.
Marco is gentle, kind to everyone, and empathetic. He’s probably fairly popular, too (because everyone loves the easy-on-the-eyes, kindhearted, sunshine character that floats around school like a goddamn angel).
Jean feels like Marco is one of his first friends - potentially even the only kid who doesn’t ridicule him (or avidly avoid him because he’s perpetually scowling).
Jean latches onto Marco pretty hard and pretty fast. Marco doesn’t mind in the slightest.
Marco does mind that Jean consistently picks being alone over being around others. He minds that Jean has no self-confidence. He hates that someone so fragile can slip beneath the waves and get lost when they deserve to be seen.
Marco can tell a few things about Jean that Jean himself obviously hasn’t recognised yet.
Marco knows Jean has a proclivity for doing the right thing. The moral thing. He’s noticed the effort Jean puts into the things he secretly enjoys (art, cooking, etc.). He’s noticed that Jean also has little-to-no confidence in himself or his skills.
Nobody gets to see Jean’s sketchbook, and when they do, he doesn’t believe compliments, and he carries insults like a burden for years to come.
Jean is shy, he’s unsure of himself, and he runs away from problems rather than facing them (because he doesn’t think he can face them).
Marco dedicates himself to changing that.
Marco makes effort to show Jean what he loves about him. Marco smiles at him when they cross paths, he offers physical affection like he’s noticed Jean seeks from his mother, he tells Jean he’s worth something. He matters.
And Jean… he doesn’t know how to handle it.
Jean’s image of himself is worlds away from how Marco sees him.
But Jean likes Marco. Jean trusts Marco. So, compliments begin to make him flush pink rather than assume someone is lying to him for a laugh. He begins hesitantly showing off what he’s worked hard on. He starts taking little steps forward under Marco’s guiding hand.
Marco is the reason Jean strives to make more of his art. Marco is the reason he comes out of his shell - the reason he’s able to meet Conny and Sasha and not run for the hills when he’s affronted with social interaction.
Marco is the first person that makes Jean think more of himself. Marco is the reason Jean stops hiding himself away like he’s something to be seen and not heard.
Marco changes Jean fundamentally, and Jean suddenly isn’t too scared to admit that Marco has lodged his way inside Jean’s little fractured heart.
Marco rebuilds Jean’s confidence piece by piece, sculpting and encouraging like he’s Ymir and Jean is a titan made from sand.
Marco is why we get this progression:
Insecure child…
Cocky (but loveable) teen…
Refined adult, capable of serious leadership
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Alternatively, some lil ideas for similar au’s could be:
- Marco helping Jean come out.
- Marco helping Jean pursue dreams he had previously found ‘unrealistic’ (like art school!)
- Marco helping Jean through an illness or injury that leaves Jean thinking he’s damaged irreparably in some way.
- Marco helping Jean out of a dangerous situation he doesn’t have the faith to abandon (religion, family, bad relationship, dead-end job, etc.).
So many things!

HEY ITS ME ITS MY BIRTHDAY CAN I HAVE BIRTHDAY SLASHER HCS FOR HOW THEY WOULD CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY?? 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
SLASHING
YOUR BIRTHDAY
CONTENT:
Vincent Sinclair - Michael Myers - Jesse Cromeans - Bo Sinclair
Tw: none, okay maybe some mature language and there's Michael but none besides that-
A/N: HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR!! hope you're having fun and you had/have a wonderful birthday!! As always thank you for the lovely request^^ hope you like it. Its not much but I've put all the special birthday effort into it
°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°
BO SINCLAIR:
Bo's the type of person who acts like he doesn't know its your birthday and when you're about to give up he gives you the most wholesome birthday surprise ever
He brings out the big guns here
We're talking about him all dressed up wearing even fancy cologne, gives you the most beautiful flowers, has prepared the fanciest dinner you have ever seen with all your favourite foods
He has spent a whole week trying to figure out something to buy for you 
Bro has a whole mental breakdance in the middle of a store because he can't for the life of him find a present that's good enough
He sets for something meaningful for both of you rather than something you said you wanted  cause he wants to show you that even if he sometimes is not the nicest he does care and cherish every moment you decide to spend with him
Has convinced Lester and vinny to give the two of you some time alone to celebrate
About that he had to ask them to help him make the perfect cake for you 
After dinner he takes your hand, puts on your favourite record, and tries to dance with you
Don't say anything cause if you do he's gonna stop, it's the first time you see him acting so shy and it's adorable 
He makes you spin in the most corny and dramatically romantic way just to see you smile
even sings along the lyrics cause he knows you like it when he sings
He doesn't say anything as you both slow dance while looking into each other's eyes, but he looks at you like you're the only thing that matters. 
In that moment Bo really is being himself without the usual harsh tough guy act he puts up everytime. 
Your birthdays mean so much to him that he's not going to deny he was acting soft the day after. 
Just seeing you so happy it's worthy 
VINCENT SINCLAIR:
Vincent my beloved
He's so worried that you won't like what he has planned cause he can't really take you anywhere special. 
The day starts with him waking you up with kisses and breakfast in bed
HE HAS MADE YOU HEART SHAPED FRENCH TOAST WITH WITH STRAWBERRIES CUT IN A FLOWER SHAPE
He even brought your favourite flowers, i-
he got all cleaned up and fancy for you. 
Hair super soft and tied up, no mask, nice and clean clothes
I feel like vinny is one of those who turns birthdays into selfcare days
He's gonna pamper you the fuck up babe 
Runs a relaxing bath for you with candles and aromatic oils ecc
Spends the whole day with you. Bo and Lester making sure there's nothing bothering the two of you 
He's gonna give you, as a birthday present, a whole sketchbook he has filled with drawings of you 
He remembers every day of the drawings and has wrote down on the page why he draw you that day
Most of them are you doing simple things without noticing he was drawing you
He has even made your favourite cake from scratch 
MICHAEL MYERS:
I'm gonna get a lil bit emotional here
Some of you DISRESPECTFUL BITCHES might say Michael doesn't care about birthdays because he lives life with his head very empty with little to no thoughts
Y'all are wrong and I'm right so HEAR ME OUT
Michael is gonna care for your birthday cause (corny alert) it means that he has someone with who he has happy memories and can make other ones 
Like everyone in his life has treated him like shit besides you, he obviously gonna care 
He doesn't know exactly what to do cause bro is kinda useless BUT- 
You will be woken up by something falling on you, when you open your eyes you see Michael standing next to the bed
He's like 🧍🏻‍♂️ and points to what he has throw at you
It's a bag full of all of your favourite sweets. And none of them has been touched 
If you ask him why is he giving you sweets at ungodly hour of 12 am he's gonna point to you then to the nearest calendar 
You can notice he has cleaned up too 
Spends the day hovering over you and invading your personal space but in a nice Michael myers way
He doesn't go out to do his boogeyman duty just because he wants to spend the day with you
Like not because he HAS to but because HE WANTS 
baking together? Baking together 
He keeps looking at you in a funny way 
Obviously he's not going to tell you because he's admiring you. He's just happy of being there with you and that you want to celebrate your bday with him 
Once you both had sit on the couch he will turned towards you and very casually take his mask off
It's the first time he has done it. It's his "present for you" 
Not in a narcissistic way but like, he wants you to see him. To see the real Michael, to know that this part of him is only yours and you're the only one who will ever be able to see it. 
10/10 would recommend having a Michael Myers over for your birthday 
JESSE CROMEANS:
Rich, hot boyfriend celebrating your birthday with you? Sign me 
With jesse you can be sure he's going to go out of his way to make your birthday super special
If you ask him he would buy the moon just for you.
He's always so afraid you feel neglected or lonely since he always spends so much time away from home that he's gonna do the most to make you happy today 
You'll wake up surrounded by rose petals but jesse side of the bed is empty 
Just when you were about to get upset he enters the room bringing you the breakfast he has made himself
Which is rare since usually it's his personal chef who prepares every meal
Will take to the finest boutique and lets you pick whatever and as many things you like
He takes you to one of those places where the do really fancy coffees and pastries ecc so you can have like a nice tea time for your birthday 
The whole day he's just paying attention to you, no work calls or anything, just you and him having a nice day together 
If you tell him you prefer to stay at home he's going to cook for you while you just relax 
Like in romantic movies where the protagonist makes dinner for their lover while listening to music and they keep stopping to dance with their s/o you know?
