The Animorphs have made a mistake.

I recently reread the David trilogy aka my all time favorite horror literature so I wanted to make something while my emotions are still fresh. Got some more ideas but I'll work on them another time.

unsolved (i)
Summary: Bucky doesn't even believe in the paranormal. So who the hell thought it was a good idea to stick him in a series about everything haunted for the internet's amusement? With his loose-canon of a teammate who has no concept of subtlety or any shits left to give, to make things even worse. (Buzzfeed unsolved AU)
Warnings: swearing, frustrated bucky at his little shit supreme, Very Loud reader, images and memes that all have alt texts.
A/N: yes this is literally harmless in a different font. do not ask me if anything doesn't make sense. i cannot explain. i resurface every 3 years to present you with ideas born from menty b's. ANYWAY shout out to my beloved ryan and shane. pls enjoy <3
Tumblr media
Bucky doesn’t appeal to the youths.
Apparently. 
On God, he cannot fathom why.
He had definitely left the house in the last six months, maybe. Smiled in at least two pictures that existed on the internet. He even knew what Discord was. Sort of.  
By all accounts, he should be treated as the modern day icon that he was.  
“The youths?” he repeats, the word so foreign on his tongue it felt odd to even say it.
“Your numbers are the lowest of the whole team.” The latest tech-dude, with a tablet twelve models ahead of the one Bucky had in his room, tells him monotonously. “Wilson, Romanoff and Barton score the highest. Everyone else lies around the middle. You are dead-last.”
Bucky has the audacity to look offended. 
“Anything to say?” Their PR head, Maya, asks him, amused. 
He stares, formulating the wittiest one liner he could in three seconds.
“I don’ care,” he mumbles. 
Maya sighs. “Look, the team took the decision together. As far as I’m aware, you are still a member. You need some PR if you guys want to stay in the public’s good books.”
“No one’s gonna listen to me.” Bucky wasn’t exactly the poster child for American values. He couldn’t even vote until three years ago, and that came only after the full wrath of a Steve Rogers descended on the email inbox of the DMV. 
“That’s why it’s important to get them to like you,” Maya emphasizes. “Or the idea of you at least. A very sanitized, corporate friendly version.”
His eyebrow twitches unintentionally.  
“And also you signed the contract.”
Well. Shit. 
Truth be told– and he has openly and rather loudly stated this on numerous occasions even especially when no one asked– he doesn’t understand why they need a PR team. The world has calmed down significantly over the last few years. Bucky hadn’t really been out crime-fighting as much as he was people-watching. There hasn’t been an earth-shatteringly dystopian-level event in the longest time, and there seemed to be a group of spandex-clad teenagers who seemed to do a good job at taking care of them when they did threaten to occur. Go kids.
Even if they needed PR, he could arguably understand the appeal of Sam and Nat and why the people would want to see more of them. Bucky, on the other hand, looked like he crawled onto Earth most days of the week. 
“What do I have to do?” he asks ultimately, knowing there was no way to get out of this. “Interviews?”
The intern shares a look with Maya. Bucky shares a look with the ceiling. 
“The team agreed to do a series of videos, each focusing on a different niche,” she begins, “Crash courses on science, pointing out mistakes in spy movies. Once a week.”
Bucky nods along. He can pinpoint Bruce and Nat for those.
Maya stares at him.
Bucky stares back.
“So,” she says slowly, like he’s a moron, “you would–”
“No.” 
The intern sighs heavily like they discussed that this was going to happen. Bucky was getting predictable. This annoys him even further, for some reason.
“Only once a week, and it doesn’t have to be anything crazy–”
“I’m not doing videos,” he interjects. “I’ll tweet a few times. I’ll even go outside. But ’m not doin’ videos.”
A big step was to get the Avengers off Twitter after the regular shit-storm that occurs every time they’d quote-tweet another politician calling them shitheads. Getting them back on seems counterproductive. 
“Fine,” Maya relents, looking at the intern. “We'll work something out.”
Bucky leans back in his chair, and meditating on ways he can weasel his way out of those too.
Tumblr media
So they stick him in a couple of interviews.
Bucky, as the recluse extraordinaire that he was, does unsurprisingly terrible at them.
Variety does a piece on him that was supposed to take up 2 pages. They send back half a page worth of usable material and Bucky gets a lecture on how monosyllables don't count as answers.
He grunts in return. Maya’s itch to smack his shoulder with the rolled up draft increases.
Tumblr media
They set him up for pap walks. Just him getting fast food for the team, or sitting in the park.
They don’t take into account that Bucky was trained professionally for years on how to hide, sneak in and out of places without a soul knowing he was ever there. 
The paparazzi spend three hours waiting for him outside the pizza place, while he’s been home for two hours with two demolished pepperonis and an order of mozzarella sticks. 
Tumblr media
They give him access to his Twitter. 
He tweets some dumb shit and gets shadow banned by that evening. 
Tumblr media
Maya is sick and tired, and the interns have shifted three times since the whole ordeal started. Bucky honestly feels a little bad. Maybe he should try to be like Scott, who not only wrote a book, finger-gunned at photographers, did an interview a week, but also agreed to a podcast and a video series about literally anything they suggested. 
“Play nice,” Sam tells Bucky one evening. 
It’s an off-hand comment, not even really looking at him while he says it. 
Bucky doesn’t need to ask what he’s referring to, but he thinks that maybe he has gone too far.
He begrudgingly agrees. 
Tumblr media
Therefore, it begins. 
They stick him in the background of a few videos. Just to interact, add his commentary on what was going on, suggestions. 
Then the jokes really start.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“I just don’t got anything to add,” Bucky tries, in a failure of an attempt to justify his lack of contribution. 
Maya only stares at him, but Bucky swears he can hear her curse quietly, even though her lips don’t move even a millimeter.  
He is not put in another video. 
Tumblr media
And so he finds himself here. 
In a meeting room that he’s convinced is barricaded from the outside so he can’t slither out the door again. Another intern with pink-tinted glasses that took up half their face.
Maya’s in the midst of explaining to him that sure, his numbers had gone up by a decimal, but that was because people had started editing him into the backgrounds of other pictures for other users to find in a perplexing take on Where’s Waldo.
“Videos seem to be working,” she ties it together. “But we need more than you just standing silently behind Captain Rogers.”
“But it’s working,” Bucky objects. “I don’t see why it has to change.”
Maya sends him a glare. Bucky decides then it’s good to shut up. 
“Are you on the internet a significant amount?” the intern asks. The glasses on their face have changed colours to green. Bucky’s eyebrow furrows. 
“No.” 
For the next thirty minutes, he is subjected to a pop quiz about too many words ending with ‘core’, ‘coded’ and ‘eras’. He’s surprised that he knows what cottagecore is. He definitely doesn’t fucking know what a tomatogirl, nor does he want to. 
“What do you like doing?” the intern enunciates, pulling up a spreadsheet of niches that had built a dedicated community around themselves over the years. “Makeup? Cleaning? Parkour?”
Bucky wonders if they’d really create a montage of him just micro cleaning the kitchen every week. It doesn’t sound half bad. 
Beyond that, the only thing he can think of is woodworking, which Sam introduced him to. While he spends time creating little figures, he wouldn’t say it was– 
“You really are dead silent,” the intern breaks his train of thought, tone almost that of wonder. “Guess the whole ‘ghost story for seventy years’ is more true than I thought.”
Bucky throws him a weary look, and works on unclenching the fist that tightened involuntarily. 
“Was that necessary?” Maya’s voice comes coldly. “Take fifteen. Go find the other one we were supposed to meet.”
While sheepish and somewhat apologetic, the kid still looks relieved to be out of there. To be honest, Bucky isn’t really offended– he’s grown a thick skin over the years. But he also thought the guy was a little shit now. 
Maya turns back to him, but Bucky finds that the table contains wonders far more interesting than the conversation at hand.
“Back to what we were talking about.” She ruffles through something on her laptop. “Puppets? History?”
He wordlessly shakes his head. 
Been the former, seen too much of the latter.
Maya’s head tilts abruptly. “You like ghosts?”  
He wonders if the prior conversation had anything to do with this insightful question. 
Bucky shrugs. “Don’t exist.”
“Really,” Maya deadpans. “Aliens and multiversal baboons are fine, but no ghosts.”
“I’ve seen aliens and multiversal baboons. Never seen a ghost in my life,” Bucky argues right back.
“Other people have seen ghosts.”
“Good for other people.”
The door swings open right as Maya’s eyes narrow at him. Guess it wasn’t padlocked. 
“Whatever it is you think I did, Maya, I didn’t. I think,” you announce in a volume too much for a closed room, stopping when you see Bucky sitting cross-armed and looking delightfully disgruntled. “Oh hey, Barnes. Fancy seeing you here.”
Bucky had met you. The newest addition to the team that had made a grand entrance a couple of weeks ago. He thinks you stay on the floor below him, but he has nothing backing this hypothesis other than the disco funk music that had started appearing at odd hours of the night. 
“Please sit,” Maya cracks a smile at you that Bucky had yet to earn. “Sorry, I know our meeting is scheduled for later, but I figured we could kill two birds with one stone.”
You look between her and Bucky, who hasn’t moved an inch since you got here, much less even said hello.
“You must be really bad if Maya had to call me in,” you tell him outright. “I’m usually like, her last option.”
“Thanks,” Bucky replies dryly. 
“Look, here’s my final pitch.” Maya sighs, before turning to you. “You’re new, and we need something to introduce you slowly to the public.”
“Oh, am I finally getting hard launched?” You grin, and Bucky doesn’t know what that means. “Just imagine me kicking my feet, giggling or whatever.” 
“And he needs… an upgrade.” Maya’s thumb juts out towards Bucky who simply rolls his eyes.
“Right.” Your sight lands on him from across the table. “I’ve seen the memes.”
“What memes?” he grunts, because while the team had definitely seen them, it didn't occur to anyone they should show it to him. He loves them. Really. So much. Die for them. 
You only look too happy to pull out your phone and start typing.
“Do you know what skinwalkers are?” 
“No.”
“That’s what they say you look like, lurking in the back of all your friends’ videos,” you continue, swerving around your phone to show him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bucky doesn’t look impressed. He can’t say he blames them either, which makes him inexplicably maddens him.  
“At least they’re calling you their boyfriend,” you add, entirely unhelpfully. “That’s gotta count.”
“Right.” Maya clears her throat. “The both of you–” 
“Are getting paired together, I suppose,” you hum. 
Bucky’s eyebrows pull together. 
He barely knows you. Just a little bit on how you ended up here, that you enjoyed hanging out with the team, figuring out your place in the compound, and were seemingly doing a great job at it. 
You were… loud. And open. 
Bucky feels the compulsive need to compensate for that by doubling down on how silent he could get, as if the two of you couldn’t co-exist in the same space in equilibrium. 
Maya pointedly raises a finger at you. “Do you believe in ghosts?”
“For the right price, I will believe in whatever you tell me to.”
Her face lights up brighter than Bucky's ever seen.
“Great.” Maya slams her laptop closed. “See you later.”
Bucky’s left staring as she exits, not even throwing the both of you another look.
“That was quick,” your voice cuts through the silence. “What was that all about?”
 “Don’ ask me,” he grumbles, with a sinking feeling that he knew exactly what was about to follow. 
Tumblr media
“Ghost hunting?” Bucky echoes a week later, as expected.
“Yes,” Maya tells him simply. “Two of you. A series based on paranormal activity.”
“I don’t even believe in them,” he reiterates. 
“That’s the point,” she emphasises. “Skeptic and believer. It makes for a good contrast.”
“Why us both?” He hopes it doesn’t come off as offensive. He just doesn’t see why he can’t do this with Sam. Even Clint, if a gun was really pressed to his head. 
“I’m new, no one gives a shit about me,” you say brightly and full of promise. “Yet.”
“Exactly. It’ll be low key. Not an overwhelming number of viewers, no expectations. It’s perfect for launching one Avenger and re-launching another.”
“Sounds rad.” You grin, leaning back as your feet rest on the chair in front of you.
Maya looks relieved for a moment that at least one of you was on board. “No promises on anything. We shoot one video, and if it does well, we stick with it.”
“What if I don’t want to?” Bucky argues. 
“Then you have until tomorrow morning to give us another feasible idea,” Maya dishes back.
Bucky retreats into his seat, arms crossed over his chest. 
Truth be told, he considered himself to be the most boring person in the team and though he had made his peace with that, he was sure thar bringing that up now would entail Maya shooting him in the foot.
“Fine,” he agrees and the sighs around the room are loud. 
He scoffs. So fucking dramatic and for what.
“Put her there, partner.” You stretch ungracefully over the large table, sticking out your hand.
Bucky eyes your hand. “Do you even believe in ghosts?” 
“I do now, yeah.” You nod seriously. “Love ‘em. Can’t get enough of them.”
“One video,” Maya reminds him as a balm. “And if it doesn’t work, you’re off the hook forever.”
Off the hook? Forever? For Bucky?
Yay. 
“One video,” he reiterates.
You roll your eyes before smiling when he leans forward to grab it. You yank it up and down clunkily. He blinks at you, letting go slowly. 
“Thank fuck,” Maya groans, head dropping onto the table. 
Your smile is wild. “Guess we’re doing this shit together.”
He doesn’t even have to look very deep in his soul. He already knows he’s going to suffer.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
✦ i.
the camera flashes blinded you as someone guided you towards a crowd of people with microphones. you almost trip over your floor length gown as you approach a shorter woman, no taller than 5'0. your security guard lingers behind you, ensuring no one tries to pull anything. you felt a bit overwhelmed. yes, you'd been exposed to this before, but it was still fairly new. the flashing lights, people screaming your name begging to get your attention, figures holding out posters and whatnot to sign, and of course, the red carpet interviews. they gave you a sense of comfort. you could focus on one person, talk to one person, and tune everyone else out for a short minute before you had to move on. 
"hello dear, mind if i ask you a few questions?" focusing back into real life, you glanced at the woman holding a microphone to your face. 
"no i don't mind. shoot." you replied, adjusting the strap on your dress. 
"first of all, your role in this movie was small, but mighty. people online are loving it, they call you "panem it-girl." people have also been making edits, now my question is, have you seen any of these?" you chuckled at her question. you attempted to stay off social media as much as possible, but in this day, its very difficult. and the answer was yes. your own feed had been filled with lots of these edits. it was strange, seeing yourself on your screen, with others saying things like "panem it-girl" and "she deserved more screen time" and "iconic queen." the whole idea made you laugh, for your role in the movie had been fairly small, but your newfound fame had secured you a spot on the press tour. 
"yes i have seen them. it's pretty weird, seeing myself, but i am just glad people love the character. to make a long story endless, i've always been a fan of the books so when this prequel came out i bought it as soon as possible. i loved clemmie the second i read about her, so it was really cool to be able to bring her to life, and i'm so happy people liked the way i played her." you replied. you tried to keep it simple, but sometimes you felt like there was too much to say and not enough time to say it, which led to extra long answers to really short questions. 
you heard her shout a thank you as you were whisked to the next interviewer. 
"hi, so nice to see you, who are you wearing?" the man asked. you glanced down at your dress that had taken you ten whole minutes to get into. the whole process of getting ready took three hours, not to mention the photoshoot your publicist encouraged. getting your hair just right took an hour alone. 
"today i'm wearing versace. i was really inspired by blake lively's dress from the met gala and i thankfully have a great stylist who was able to find the perfect dress for me." you had always loved red carpet looks, and began to design your own in a fashion sketchbook when you were twelve years old. one of your favorite perks of being well-known was the ability to wear the dresses you had always loved. 
the security guard whispered in your ear that it was time to go pose. you thanked the man interviewing you and walked away. as you approached the middle of the red carpet a few people caught your eye. rachel zegler was standing in front of the cameras, flashes of light every second without fail. you seemed to have caught her eye, she turned to you and waved. you returned the gesture and made your way to the place you were supposed to pose. the cameras began to flash as soon as you stepped in front of them. you positioned yourself into your signature pose, which showed off the best parts about you. rachel walked over and gave you a hug.
"you look great" she attempted to compliment you, but it was hard to hear her over the people shouting.
"you look better than i ever will."  you returned the compliment and saw a disappointed look on her face. 
"girl you know so well that's not true" she laughed before returning to her initial position, maybe a few feet closer to you now. you returned back to posing, the flashes still going off, your name being mixed with rachels, being called from ten different directions. you began to walk off when you heard cheering from your left. you turned to see who had arrived. 
wearing a white blazer, a white, barely buttoned top, and black slacks was tom blyth. he had just stepped out of the vehicle dropping him off. you heard an overwhelming scream of voices. you had met tom on the set of the new movie, but had learned that you had both went to juilliard, and he graduated the year after you enrolled. there was a one year period where you too had been at the same school, yet never met each other. when the two of you first met, there was an immediate friendship. you guys drove to set together, practiced lines together, and hung out as many time as you could, squeezing in your busy schedule. but there had always been something more there for you. to you, he was the most charming, alluring, funny, kind person you'd met. it had always been one sided. you'd learned to suppress it, and accept that maybe he wasn't as interested in you as you were in him. while you were thinking, he had finished his interviews and was coming over to the two of you. you waved over to him and he flashed a smile at you. you approached him as he gave you a hug. you embraced it as much as you could. 
"hey! how are you?" he asked. you glanced up at him. your height difference was perfect in your mind. 
"i'm doing great, how are you?" 
"fantastic." he replied. he looked around you, finally making eye contact with rachel. you watched as his face lit up, and your heart sunk a little lower. there was nothing going on between them, at least, that's what you'd known. but seeing him excited to see her gave you a sense of jealousy. you knew it was selfish, obviously he made the entire movie with her, why shouldn't he be more excited? but you couldn't control it. he patted you on the shoulder and watched as he gave rachel a hug. a much more meaningful hug, that's what it looked like, at least. he wrapped his arm around her waist and posed with her. you asked your security guard to take you away from the photo area, off the red carpet altogether, but he told you to wait because they wanted an all cast photo. you decided to go back and do more interviews. you approached another woman. 
"hello." you greeted her.
"hi! im with letterboxed, would you care to give me your top four movies of all time?" you loved this question. you watched every video they posted of celebrities top movies. you'd never been asked before, and you had planned this out weeks in advance. it distracted you a little from your heart. 
"i LOVE this question, i've been planning for weeks."
...
once the movie was over, you exited the theater and made your way to the afterparty. you changed into a much easier outfit. one you could dance in. you were going to need it anyways. the dress had a corset-esqe top, with a very short skirt. like sabrina carpenter. you put on some high boots and fiddled with your hair a little. 
you entered the afterparty fashionably late. most people were already there. you recognized a few of your castmates from "the academy." you went over to them and got yourself a drink from the bar. 
"you look amazing, drop the makeup routine right now." you heard one say. lilly cooper, the actress for arachne crane. you laughed at her, but promised you would. you talked to a few more people, the actress for livia cardew, actor for festus creed, and more. before you knew it, 45 minutes had passed. you ventured away from them, and into the more central area. 
"girl get over here!" you heard. you pivoted on your heel and spotted rachel, tom, and josh. you happily walked over and gave josh a hug, you hadn't seen him all night. "this outfit is out of this world." rachel complimented. you did a little twirl to show off every bit of it. when you returned to your initial place, you saw tom laughing. a smile broke out on your face. 
"im ready to dance guys, when's that happening?" you asked them. rachel grabbed your hand, along with tom's. josh followed you guys as you headed for the dance floor. they were now playing "breaking dishes" by rhianna, one of your all time favorite clubbing songs. you had always been proud of your dancing skills, and now was the chance to show off. on your way to the dance floor, you picked up another drink, and downed it as fast as possible. finally on the floor, you and rachel began to dance together. she spun you around and you did the same to her. soon, josh swept you away and you danced with him, making sure to one up every move he made. you felt yourself getting tipsy, but that didn't matter, what did was that you were having fun. 
mid turn with josh, you felt yourself get pulled away again, a new hand holding onto yours. you looked up to see tom, who had ditched his jacket, and your pretty sure had unbuttoned another button or two, pulling you to dance with him. you agreed happily and began to dance with him. you had never noticed how good a dancer he was. every time you tried to one up him, he would pull out some move you hadn't seen before. 
"i saw you trying to one up josh" he shouted over the music. "isn't going to happen sweetheart." he called you that as a joke, but you felt yourself getting red. your stomach dropped. 
"wait here, i'm going to get another drink." you yelled, attempting to be louder than the already blaring music. he grabbed your arm and pulled you back.
"hey how many is that now?" he asked, referring to the amount you had drunken that night. 
"oh please." you shook him off and went to get another drink. you downed it and returned back to him. you felt the drinks going straight to your head. he spun you and you felt very dizzy. too many drinks.  you had always been a bit of a lightweight. three or four drinks was way to many. you continued to dance with him. he spun you again, this time returning you to him. he spun you back and he pulled you into his chest and you knocked into him. rachel came up behind you and you almost tripped on her feet. 
"woah, you've had too much to drink."  she immediately noticed. you tried to defend yourself, but found yourself slurring your words together. "yeah, you're done." she walked you over to a couch and sat you down. you laid down and your vision began to blur as you passed out. 
...
you woke up the next morning on a sofa. but this sofa was not the same sofa from last night. this was your sofa, in the hotel you were staying at for the premier. somehow, you had gotten home. no idea how, no idea when, but you had gotten home. you immediately noticed your discomfort, you glanced down, seeing yourself in your outfit from last night. 
after a shower and skincare, you still tried to ponder who had gotten you home last night. whoever it was knew your room, found your room key, and took care not to wake you as you were transported home.  
you pushed the thought down, thankful for whoever did it, but stopped wasting time on it. you packed up your suitcase and made your way back home.

The great hormonal storms in book 5 lead me to this ask: let's talk about sex. Or at least sex ed. Does Hogwarts have it (at least in LH'verse)? Is that a nurse duty or a Head of House one? Did Narcissa sit her baby boy down for The Talk, at least to impart how Miss Granger would return to her parents in the same state she left them or at least unimpregnated? Did she outsource that task to Uncle Severus? Did Ron share what his older brothers passed down? What does our favorite victorian-in-spirit know abt sex beyond "lie back and think of the bloodline" and his hormonal daydreams?
I'm l o s i n g it at the idea of Narcissa instructing Draco to leave Hermione "unimpregnated," which, I just — I think the minute she uses those things in the same sentence, Draco hits the road at the speed of Mach Christ. He's gone. He's not here. He's not in the building. Can't have the Sex Talk if you can't fucking catch me, Mom. (For the record, I can fully see Narcissa trying. She's much less prudish than Draco is — gossips about adultery with her 11-y/o son on Christmas morning, references Ye Olde Wilde Times with Lucius, cracks the occasional bawdy joke, etc. — she just doesn't often see the need to discuss it, being aware that Draco, as far as she knows, remains an un-Awakened little Victorian. The Great Granger Debacle of 1995 is likely raising her suspicions there.) That said, Draco knows what sex is; for some reason my mind gravitates to the slightly handwavey answer of "boy's dormitory." I'm picturing him in his four-poster, curtains drawn, pretending to be asleep, while Ron and Harry have a free-ranging, horrifically creative conversation about what Ron thinks sex is (courtesy of the twins). Optimistically, Neville hops in with corrections from Augusta Longbottom's sexual etiquette seminars. Either way, Draco never, ever reveals that he has heard this conversation.
Or, alternatively, he and Theo have a really intense heart-to-heart during that summer before third year, which would do a lot to explain why the two of them are so weird about each other basically for the rest of time. (Raising the question of where Theo/Pansy/Daphne learned it. At age 12, Pansy got an excruciatingly detailed Talk from her mother, who was scared to death of a teen pregnancy pitching their family into ruin; Pansy, deciding it was unfair she had to suffer this and Theo did not, inflicted said Talk on Theo, who was just relieved that he didn't have to ask Sibelius. And Daphne grew up around so many healers that she just badgered them until someone gave in and told her. She's also a stated connoisseur of trashy romance novels, so. Make of that what you will.)
I think that Hogwarts, being modeled in mores and general Vibe from old English boarding schools, probably is not the most forward-thinking with sex ed. I also do believe Severus Snape would sooner jump off a bridge, and I kind of need him for the plot, so I've got to spare him that grave and important duty. Poppy Pomfrey probably gets the question the most of any staff member, and over the years, I think she's honed her answer down to a tight 3 minute-monologue that covers all major topics.
Odds and ends in the same vein:
Hermione gets a sit-down with the Drs. Granger the summer before her thirteenth birthday, so sometime in August, 1992. It is meticulously explained and flawlessly presented, with color-coded diagrams, an index, and a syllabus. It includes a diagnostic chart for common STIs and a spreadsheet on birth control options. Dr. Granger gets excited after a tangent about ovarian cysts and runs to pull out her old copy of Grey's. Hermione spends the whole time fully miserable, wondering why parents couldn't be like, greengrocers or something. (That doesn't stop her from asking questions, obviously.)
Ron, like all Weasley men of his generation, gets a knock on his door sometime around his 14th birthday, and Arthur invites him to "go fishing." This is code for "stand by the river and try to keep a will to live while your dad explains the mechanics of sex, its importance, and the value of waiting until you feel comfortable and safe sharing that level of intimacy with a trusted partner" (sic).
Fred and George got separate talks, because Arthur wanted to emphasize that he sees them as individuals; however, Fred ran back and immediately recounted it all to George, who proceeded to feign extraordinary expertise in it the next morning, to his father's horror.
Ginny's "go fishing" equivalent is Molly taking her out for tea and delivering a well-meant but incoherent combination of abstinence-only sex ed, aggressive body positivity, and highly technical discussions of how to insert a diaphragm. Ginny, who bullied the real story out of Bill years ago, is baffled, and to this day can't say for sure what she was supposed to take away from it.
Harry spends his 14th birthday at the Burrow. Ron and his brothers make a blood pact in advance not to tell him about it, though, so when Arthur invites him out for the day on August 1st, his sole thought is: oh, nice! Can't wait for some fun fishing :)

Fix-it fics you say. Tell me MORE
Agh. AHGHHH. I had a really fucking stupid self-indulgent AU idea where Sanji eats a devil fruit that gives him healing powers. Generally it's a great thing to have but there's two (2) problems with it.
He can only use his healing powers on others, not himself, and depending on the injury it takes a massive amount of stamina to heal (to the point of being life-endangering), and
It is a highly. HIGHLY coveted devil fruit. Sanji has to be very, very careful about when and where he uses it, bc people have and will come after him for it.
Cut to Sabaody, where Kuma decides to send Sanji to Marineford instead of Momoiro, so Sanji spends the next few days trying to hide out (his garbage ass wanted poster actually helping him with this for once lmao). It isn't long before he hears about Ace's planned execution, and Sanji thinks about infiltrating to break him out but realizes it would be too dangerous. Knowing his captain though he's 100% certain Luffy will show up to rescue Ace, so he decides to lay low until the war starts.
Fast forward to when Ace gets fatally wounded and Sanji jumps in to save his ass. He manages to heal the wound enough that a regular doctor could take over, but using that much power and stamina kicks his ass so hard that he's almost crying blood and Luffy has to carry him off the battlefield. Sanji, being an idiot and stupidly self-sacrificing, waits for Luffy to focus on Ace before he slips away and decides to haul ass back to Whitebeard in an attempt to heal him too. Luffy flips his SHIT when he realizes Sanji is gone and has a panic attack after nearly losing his brother and now not knowing where the fuck his stupid cook went.
Sanji and Whitebeard probably argue back and forth for a few minutes before Whitebeard finally relents and lets Sanji take care of the worst of his injuries. Whitebeard watches him and he's like. You're gushing blood out of your nose rn should that be happening. You don't look well. And promptly smacks him on the head when Sanji starts mumbling some self-sacrificing bullshit fjadnsadna
Whitebeard's like well. I WAS planning to die here fighting since I was in really bad shape. But I guess since this dumbass decided to heal me and I owe Strawhat for saving my son. He picks up Sanji (who has long since passed tf out) and is like okay I'm out! Peace!! And books it back to everyone else lol
Cue Luffy BAWLING when Whitebeard shows up with his stupid idiot boyfriend (who uhhh doesn't look too good) and they all manage to escape bc this is a fix-it and I do what I want. They stumble onto Law's submarine who now has to deal with three (3) critically injured patients (Luffy, Sanji, Ace) and the in-recovery arc that happens after is very stressful but also very, very soft.
Basically my brain said "Marineford but it's a fix-it with Sanlu" so here we are LMAO

Make A Wish
Character(s): Law
Summary: Law never liked to celebrate his birthday...but you had other plans
Note: this is one of two birthday fics i’m posting for law hehe
Also thank you everyone for 200 followers &lt;3
Tumblr media
"Whatever you do...do NOT mention it's his birthday."
Those were the words Shachi warned you with two days ago. You were the newest member of the Heart Pirates and were still learning the ropes, but this confused you. Apparently your new captain, Trafalgar Law, didn't like to celebrate his birthday. Penguin and Shachi had told you that Law would force whoever mentioned his birthday to clean the toilets for a week.
The Polar Tang was docked at an island on the day of Law's birthday. It was strange to see everyone act if it was just a normal day, especially since for everyone else's birthdays the Heart Pirates went all out. You did notice everyone doing their work quickly and without complaint today, trying to take some of the stress off Law's back.
You were assigned to go into town and scout out which places looked good to restock. As you walked through the town, two specific shops caught your eye. First a bakery, you could smell the delicious treats coming from across the street. The second store that caught your eye was a children's comic book store, one that had a huge Sora Warrior of the Sea poster in the window. These two shops sparked a small idea in your head, and even though your crewmates had warned you, you just had to act.
You didn't return till later that night. Everyone had already eaten and some even went to bed. Usually you spent your nights playing cards with Shachi and Bepo, but tonight you wanted to see your captain. You slowly made your way to his quarters and mustered all your strength up to knock.
"Yes?" He called from the other side.
"Captain...can I come in? I need to talk to you about something."
"Yes you may enter."
The door creaked open as you stepped in. Law was sat at his desk, medical books and messy papers scattered on top.
"So Y/N-ya, what do you need?"
You cleared your throat and took out the box from behind your back/ You prayed that Law wouldn't get upset, but it was too late to turn back.
"Some of the others told me it was your birthday today...so I went out and grabbed something small for you." You sheepishly held out the box to him, hoping he'd accept.
Law paused for a second...then let out a long, tired sigh. He was angry, he hated when his birthday was brought up. Thinking about the day he was born reminded him of too much...Cora...Lami...his parents...
He just wanted those thoughts to go away.
Immediately when you joined the crew, Law knew he felt different about you. Everything you did was perfect, even your flaws were somehow amazing. If it was any of his other crewmates, even Bepo, he would be screaming his head off...but somehow he just couldn't bring himself to yell at you.
"Thank you....thank you Y/N-ya. You didn't need to get me anything." He took the box from your hand and set it down on his desk. Slowly he opened it, and instead of the angry reaction you expected, you were met with eyes of shock.
"Y/N-ya....where did you get this...?" Law said, holding up the poster that you had bought from the comic book store.
"Um...I saw it at a store in town. If you don't like it I can still return it-"
"NO," Law shouted, "This is the limited edition only 100 copies made poster. I've only seen pictures of it....I didn't even think it was real.."
Law stared at the poster for a few minutes longer while you stared in silence. After he was done being a nerd, he set the poster down and noticed something else in the box.
"A...cupcake? Y/N-ya I don't-"
"I know," you cut him off, "but they are gluten free and trust me they are super yummy! If you don't like it I'm sure Shachi will devour it."
Law looked at the cupcake with caution. He slowly rose the cupcake to his lips, getting ready to take a bite...
"STOP!" You yelled, startling Law. You dug into your pockets and pulled out a small wax candle and a lighter, "I almost forgot to put this on it."
You placed the candle on the cupcake and lit it. The flame shined brightly on Law's face.
"...What do I do now...?" Law asked, looking at you in confusion.
"It's easy, you make a wish, then blow out the candle!"
Law examined the cupcake, looking at it from all angles, then stared right back at the flame. He closed his eyes, and you couldn't make out his mumbles of a wish. After that was done he took in a big breath of air and blew out the candle. You softly clapped as Law's cheeks turned pink.
The rest of the night was spent with Law eating his gluten free cupcake as you talked about Sora and how much he loved it. When you looked at the clock next you noticed it was already 1 am. As you said your goodbye began to walk to the sleeping quarters, Law grabbed your wrist and stopped you.
"Thank you for tonight Y/N-ya...maybe I'll celebrate my birthday again next year."

okay, so… here it is: a larger post of most of the treasure planet merch i’ve received but haven’t shared here. this stuff gets more and more niche/rare the further you scroll, so check it all out! let’s start from the top:
first up— we’ve got my complete collection of all the loungefly products. each one has jim on it so it was a must <3 personally the first release (middle) is my favorite but i think the pink backpack is prettier
Tumblr media
second up— my 20th anniversary pin as well as my cursed concepts pin. such lovely grabs <3 then we have the pin i bought off the artist Dean Grayson from his “Heroic Rides” series on etsy. it’s fricken huge!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
third— probably one of my favorites, my hallmark treasure planet cups. i got these off ebay and i have absolutely no idea what year they’re from. aren’t they so cool?! i got so many and they’re brand new. the print of jim on the cup is just top tier. “honey, we’ve got guests. bring out the fine china!” 10/10.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
number four— my jim & silver keychain toys. these are olddd! if you know me though, you know i don’t keep stuff in the packages. silver could stay, but jim definitely had to come out. he zooms forward like a toy car when you pull him back and then let him go!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
item number five— treasure planet for the playstation 2. i’m especially fond of this one considering the ps2 was my first ever gaming console that i owned myself. so many fun memories!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
number six— my japanese art promo book featuring some of the japanese voice casting! as an anime fan, collecting japanese promotional material for american media is something that i’ve always wanted to do. i haven’t gotten my hands on a japanese movie poster yet, but it’s on my list for sure. this is a pretty close runner up though! i love all the pngs used for this booklet! (sorry for my weird hand placement in some of these, as the pages folded out and it was hard to photograph with one hand)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
number seven— last one for now! i think i saved the best for last personally, but this is my disney adventures collector’s edition magazine for treasure planet back from 2002, the movie’s release year. let me tell you, this thing is such a throwback from the events of the year to the ads that come in the thing.
…AND THERE’S A WHOLE CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE COMIC IN HERE?! i had no idea! it was like striking gold! this is also one of my favorites of all the things i own. can we get a load of how cute he looks on the cover? he almost looks like he’s aware he’s posing for a magazine cover. so adorable!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
…wow, that’s all from me for now! while it’s definitely not all i own, this is just some of the newer stuff i’ve gotten since i’ve been away and/or some of the stuff i think is cooler. did you recognize any of this stuff? find anything new? lemme know!

Hi I just wanted to say I love ur sm and I'm so glad to have found ur blog <333
It so hard to find a someone to write form tdlosk<3 (the author reader)
I had a cute though if it the came in my mind when reading the P2(?) Of it, Reader friend to show his approval of reader and saiki when he released his newest chapter in some of panel in the background there is this couple who is closely looks like reader and saiki or if there scene where there is desserts the most will stand out is a coffee jelly w Reader fav dessert and along with words of "coffee jelly and f/d are the finest together" (f/d = favorite dessert)
Sorry if I talked ur ear off I just wanted to rent this thought of mine ^^
Have a good day!
AWW YOUR SO SWEEEEEET!! TYSM DARLING <33 I agree I don’t see very many!!
AHHH THATS SUCH A GOOD IDEA!! That’s absolutely adorable I starting smiling so hard while typing this‼️💖
Tumblr media
…………………..♡♡♡……………….
When you were reading your friend’s latest chapter you saw he drew a couple in that background resembled your appearance and had two thingys sticking out a guy’s head and glasses
you instantly knew it was you two!! (Especially with saiki’s limiters LOL)
freaking out, you and immediately ran to Saiki to show him 😭💓💓
he probably already noticed if he read the book before you
”KUSUO LOOK!! Looklooklook!- my author friend put us in the latest chapter!!!”
”yeah, I know I saw, he put us in the manga :)”
”that’s so ADORABLE 💞💞”
”I’m so happy! I’ve gotta thank him!”
you called your friend and barely gave him a chance to speak as you bursted with appreciation over the phone
he tells you he thought you and Saiki were a cute couple from when you introduced them to each other
so he got the spontaneous idea to put you two in his book!!
he explained that although it looked like you were just standing there with hearts over your heads (<3) you two were coming back from a dessert date!!
In a flash there was a smile on your face as you ran over to Kusuo once again to relay the message
he was rather fond of it considering that means he was eating coffee jelly 😎
”dang now he wants some..”
there was another scene where the main character passed a bakery and the items on sale in the window were coffee jelly and f/d!!!
the poster even read “coffee jelly and f/d are the finest together!~”
AWWWW SO CUTE!!
your shaking Kusuo and jumping up and down as you tell him about it!
he just sits there and lest it all happen with a faint smile 💖
he’s happy too of course
but your (literally) jumping with joy
often times after your friend finishes a chapter
you know how authors do that thing where they would put little doodles or facts at the end?
yeah he puts little chibi sketches of you and Kusuo doing cute couple stuff
one chapter will be chibi’s of you two holding hands
The next is you two on a date eating coffee jelly and f/d
it absolutely warms your heart 😭💝💝
you rant to Kusuo, your friends, your family, your author friend- EVERYBODY each time he does it
its so sweet of him!!
one time you put a detailed sketch of your author friend at the end of your chapter and he appreciated it so much!!
now it’s sorta just a back and forth thing between you two :3
This was such an adorable concept 😊💖
°
🏌️‍♀️
:3 (LOL)

Sort of!
My askbox is open to all sorts of silly dilly fun time! This is my first little hang out so PLEASE BE KIND TO ME i'm just a silly girl who wants to make friends and have some fun! I'm also hoping this might get me back into writing!
Yes, the poster is all Loki NO HE'S NOT THE CENTRE OF ATTENTION!! Here's a little info I guess (I am just winging this as we speak, it is not very thought out):
Rules & Info
The event will run from 03/25 to 03/31 - you can send in as many asks and hang out as much as you would like!!! No I will not kill you if you drop a hello in my askbox start of April - to be honest, I love friends so I won't ever turn anyone away
You can stop by my askbox to say hi, share some thoughts (or thots...) tell me anything, or play a game! (will talk about that in a bit)
Anyyyyoneeee is welcome I don't care if we aren't mutuals or we don't even talk, STOP BY AND SAY HI :D If you are rude or disrespectful in any way, I will kick your butt and break your nose.
This is a positive, fun zone. I just want to have my fun and mind my business, please don't be trying to cause problems. I'm a relatively small blog so thankfully no one really looks my way but I've had some bumps in the past.
THIS IS MY FIRST TIME DOING THIS AND IM LITERALLY GOING TO DIE FROM NERVES SO BE PATIENT WITH ME OKAY
Games:
Fuck, marry, kill - send me any three characters that you want me to decide a fate for....oh my god please don't make me kill anyone I love dearly....
Blurbs!! - send me a little prompt/kink/thought & a character and I will try SOOOOO HARD to put out a little itty bitty something of writing! Like 500 words or so!! Can be fluffy or smutty. Angst is not allowed unless its just a LITTLE sad and with lots of fluffy stuff after
Character Association - tell me about yourself and let me give you a character. This is literally my favourite game ever, and I swear I'm super good at it
Book Recs - tell me your reading vibes/popular tropes you like and I will give you FIVE (not one, not two, but FIVE!!!) book recs because I like talking about books. If you show up talking about non fiction, then sorry but I am not your gal at all.
Chat - Come talk!! Come chat!! Come say hi and giggle with me about anything!! Come be crazy with me over narratives and themes and character arcs!!! Tell me about school or your day, your OCs, latest WIPs or anything currently on your mind!
Okay that's all I could come up with but literally any and all games are free game. I am keeping this as chill and lowkey as possible.
Characters/Fandoms:
You guys already KNOW my vibes and what I'm around and what I'm not, so feel free to send anything! I float around Marvel/DC (just send in any character and if I don't vibe with it I'll just let you know or leave it unanswered), I think it's obviously I'm Oscar Isaac obsessed....um. Pretty much anything. It's free game and I'll put my foot down if I'm down okay with something or don't want to answer :D
I'm..about to tag some friends...if that's okay...
@divine-knight-hand @romanarose @sarahscribbles @lokischambermaid @lokisgoodgirl @sailorholly @in-som-niyah @fictive-sl0th @mischief2sarawr @saturn-rings-writes @superficialdomina @planetwaynez...and I can't remember anyone else now I'm sorry LMAO
KISSES EVERYONE <3
Clem
PS: If you're worried whether I'm comfy or not or familiar with a character or not, just send it in anyway and we'll figure it out from there!

For the appendices, what are some ideas that you thought were really neat or fun but simply didn't work for any reason? Like, those darlings you had to kill, as they say.
📜: This is a FABULOUS question! One of the initial ideas for the appendices was to present them like a tableau of items (sort of like those spreads in I Spy books) as though you were looking at a different character’s desk or bookshelf each time, and some of those early collections could have had some fun props involved (desk fidgets, decorative knick-knacks, bar garnishes, writing and eating utensils, etc.). Unfortunately that idea proved way too elaborate and time intensive to produce when we first started. BUT! We WERE able to do this a couple of times in Season 2 (S2E03, and S2E18) and I LOVE the way that that helped create a sense of place, seeing the items in situ where you (and presumably the Narrators???) found them. 
As for individual appendix ideas that didn’t end up making it, there was an idea for S2E09 that I was VERY torn about: I love the Seed Catalog we got, but one of the back-up ideas was a hiring poster for a wailing crew, which I think could’ve been extremely cool!
But speaking of NEAT and FUN APPENDICES, there are some EXQUISITE pieces coming up in Season 3, and I CANNOT WAIT for you to see them! AND SEASON 3 STARTS TOMORROW, so you barely have to wait! 
This has been your friendly neighborhood Matt📜, signing off!

Wade's Bedroom
Okay. So, in the trailer for the Knuckles series, we see Knux take out a bounty hunter in what appears to be Wade's bedroom. I'm thinking this is his bedroom at his mother's house, so when he was a teen.
Tumblr media
You can tell a lot about a person by how they decorate their personal space. And since I love Wade and am on my knees begging for better characterization, I wanna see what they put in the guy's bedroom.
Tumblr media
Let's break it down.
1 - Little Robots
I can't tell exactly what robots these are, whether they're action figures from games or movies, or some model kits he's built himself. If they're models it shows Wade spent a lot of time on his own, and had the opportunity to focus on building something that required attention and patience.
2 - Books
There are a lot of books on his shelves, and the ones especially between Knux and the bounty hunter look like a series. Obviously we can't read the titles, but Wade strikes me as someone who'd enjoy manga, and the Choose Your Own Adventure stories.
3 - A Little Rainbow Sticker
This may indicate he knows someone who is LGTBQ+, or possibly he himself is. Or maybe he just likes rainbows.
4 - "Pistol" Pete Whipple poster
I'm not exactly sure how Pete is related to Wade, but I'm going under the assumption that Pete is his uncle. (Cary Elwes is 20 years older than Adam Pally, so while it's possible he's a brother, it's unlikely.) Here's this very impressive and 'famous' Whipple, who everyone looks up to and admires. (I'm assuming.) Wade feels so unimportant, he has this poster to remind him that he's related to greatness, and maybe he too can be important some day.
5 - Addams Family movie poster
I'm pretty sure this is the first movie, and Wade likes it because it shows people who are strange, people who don't look or act like everyone else, people who have odd hobbies and interact with the world in their own unique manner. And yet they love each other, Gomez in particular would do anything for his brother. Considering the nonchalant way his sister and mother behaved when he was yanked off the porch in the trailer, maybe Wade never really felt a connection like that.
6 - Robin Hood Prince of Thieves movie poster
The most famous example of helping those less fortunate than you, and being a hero to those on the receiving end of that help. Wade wants to help people. He wants to stand up for those who can't. I have no idea what his relationship with his father is/was like, but maybe the whole 'stand up to a corrupt authority' resonated with him for personal reasons as well.
7 - Speed movie poster
Maybe he wished he was Keanu Reeves, the hero with a calm head and always knew what to do. Maybe he always pictured himself as Sandra Bullock, an average person pulled into something dangerous and assuming an important role that helps save others.
8 - Ren and Stimpy poster
Okay, so he's a teen boy in the 90s. He's gonna like that gross-out humor.
9 - Total Recall movie poster
This movie is about an average joe who discovers he's actually someone Very Important. Wade has always thought of himself as a nobody. Deep down he wants to be someone Very Important. At least someone competent who isn't brushed off as a joke.
10 - TMNT bedsheets (and he was wearing a TMNT shirt under his robe before he's dragged down the street)
Obviously he's a man of good taste. But again, a group of teens fighting bad guys. The man just wants to be a hero so badly.
Based purely on the way he acts as an adult (and I'm trying to look past the "oh boy isn't he dumb!" pathetic characterization the movies have so far given him) I see Wade as a lonely man. He's likely never had many friends, always feels like the odd man in every situation, and just isn't very comfortable in his own skin.
In the trailer scenes where Knuckles decides to train Wade, there are posters and notes tacked all over the room with encouraging messages to himself regarding working out. Maybe he's trying to change his image because he thinks that will make others like him more. Maybe he's just trying to get a date. Maybe he's wrestling with his own self-worth.
Whatever is going on with Wade, I think pairing him with Knuckles is a good way to have them both realize things about themselves they'd never known before. Wade will help Knux realize that it's okay to let his guard down and enjoy himself, and Knuckles can help show Wade that there's more to him than anyone (including himself) thinks.
Maybe I'm waaaaay off base with these. Maybe I'm thinking way too hard about it. Wouldn't be the first time. But I love Wade and I really want to understand him, and hope to see him grow and become more confident by the end of the series.

KARAOKE NIGHT.
ⓘ ⠀with a little convincing, azul added karaoke rooms to the lounge! now that exams are over, you decided to bring your friends to celebrate.
ⓘ ⠀housewardens : gn! reader : sfw : wc.
sincerely noe ,⠀i want this. one day, i have my fingers crossed.
Tumblr media
riddle rosehearts ;
you may as well have considered riddle absent, he stayed pouting in a corner the whole time.
the night in and of itself gave him more anxiety than the actual exams did, but seeing the rest of you have fun as a reward for you hard work made it worth it (not that he'd admit.)
he grew more comfortable as the night progressed; not that he sang, but he wasn't as tense. he was laughing with you guys, even!
cater and ace sang a love song, addressing it to him in a joking way; while you thought it would make him clam up again, it was surprisingly okay!
speaking of those two, the were passed out by the end of the night and you had to help trey and deuce drag them back.
by helping, i mean tagging behind while talking to riddle and catching up about the past week.
to some of your surprise, he became much more open and comfortable with you past that— not that you were complaining!
leona kingscholar ;
might as well add 'loud karaoke room' to the list of absurd places leona can fall asleep in.
it took a while, but he didn't like the amount of 'fun' you three were having and so he joined.
man was he terrible, lhm.
best believe if you weren't dead from his performance, you were dead from embarrassment.
ruggie suggested you guys do something else, for the better of azul's business so you went to sam's instead and walked around the campus.
best believe you also had a savannaclaw sleepover after <3
azul ashengrotto ;
the idea had azul beyond flustered, floyd going out of his way to make it worse was not helping.
the day you proposed the idea to them, you saw posters telling people come watch the octopus sing. (jade added the fee at the bottom corner ofc.)
while azul didn't sing, the rest of you did! you could've sworn you heard a hum, but it may just be your ears.
the twins decided they'd spend the rest of their night there (after one pastry too many,) leading azul to take you home.
after many self pep-talks, he decided to sing for you. lucky for him, you couldn't see his red face but know it was there.
please please give compliments, but not too many. only the perfect amount.
it could either end with him ignoring you for a day or more comfortable with you than ever.
kalim al asim ;
best night of the year for the sea-squad.
you better believe kalim invited the entire house, it's actually crazy. each karaoke room was booked.
something that was meant for your lover, jamil, and you became a whole scarabia celebration.
don't worry though, once kalim made sure everyone was comfortable in their rooms you three went to your own. he's not that naive.
the night was more like: 'jamil shows of his secret singing talent, giving the cheersquad another talent to praise him for.'
the three of you ended up falling asleep, waking to azul's scolding, but it couldn't matter less.
you and kalim were able to add more merch to the jamil fan club so all is well.
vil schoenheit ;
they took it way too seriously.
you weren't insecure because of their skill, (rook literally became a piano) just beyond confused.
in your world, you have done karaoke before. classical was just something.. you didn't sing?
epel was the only one singing songs you could recognize, but despite that rook and vil were still talented.
it was clear the dorm leader and vice were able to release much tension, though it wasn't yet clear if it was a good or bad thing.
their music choice became an inside joke between you and epel, which makes taking their scoldings ten times harder.
idia shroud ;
idia made ortho sign a contract that you wouldn't record (with azul's recommendation.)
he wasn't that bad, it was more surprising his immediate willingness to participate.
ortho is another hiding singing talent; if you can ignore the fact he could literally replace his voice with ariana grande.
you did get clips of the night on video, as you didn't sign the contract. the two of you came to the conclusion idia will find out never.
malleus draconia ;
what in the opera house...
you were in tears when the first song came on, lilia was the only one that shared the sentiment. you could've mistaken this as church.
you never wished you could drink more than you did at the moment.
the music choices were diverse: malleus and sebek with their old fashioned opera and lilia with something that reminded you of anaconda by nicki.
silver fell asleep on you shoulder, even with sebek's loud high notes in the background.
you weren't sure if you wanted to do this again or never again; maybe you never will.
but do be prepared to explain your laughter to malleus when he walks you back to your dorm later.

hazbin hotel redesign part 2/?? (since i felt creative and the last one was received okay! lore below :3)
Tumblr media
BACKGROUND: husk was a gambling addict when he was alive, surrounding himself with "hang in there" posters whenever situations got tough and being able to sneakily cheat in solitaire (which is why hes a cat lolzies) -now in hell, he made a living by becoming an overlord of the pride ring's casino motel, but then met alastor. the two got along, but its clearly toxic from how alastor treats the poor guy. husk stays by the radio demon's side nonetheless, the two becoming really bad business partners and 'friends'. (his soul isnt owned hurrah) -alastor drags him and nifty to the happy hotel, run by the dynamis angel charlie morningstar. he decides to roll with it, becoming an overlord sponsor and the hotel's bartender. 👍
DESIGN CHOICES: i wanted husk to look more like a bartender and a gambler, changing his attire and giving him an actual shirt :3 -his design originally wasnt that bad (surprise it wasn't made entirely by vivzie), but i felt like it was a little too cluttered and bland at the same time -i feel like he shouldn't be so skinny, considering he's supposed to be an alcoholic who loves cheap booze, so i fattened him up a bit :3 -his claw is supposed to act as a cork screw since he works at the hotel bar -i removed his wings, i just felt like they didnt fit his design or theme well (sorry wing lovers -made his color palette less red, adding in some gold n green -FUCK THE TOPHAT BRO LET HIS HAIR BREATHE -i didn't give him shoes despite him being an overlord n all, but its due to cats sweating through their feet and using their paws as a stealth advantage!!
CONCEPT SO FAR: -so, charlie goes to the seraphim and blabbers out her ideas, faithful in heaven being accepting and fully siding with her dream. but, approval's iffy, and it takes a while before heaven decides to go along with it (albeit they shit on her constantly for it). sent down with keekee, now her trusty book of sinner backgrounds and hotel embodiment/key, she gets to work on advertising her happy hotel!!! -first to arrive to the hotel is vedika (my vaggie rename), a fallen angel with the intent of guarding charlie and providing for the hotel itself. (not revealing she was an exterminator, and now these lesbians get SLOW BURN) -as they advertise, the infamous radio demon finds the idea of an angel wanting to redeem SINNERS entertaining, so he shows up and drags along husker and nifty to help around. (hes more evil here, me and my homies HATE alastor) -then they find a demon to bring along as the example/star of the redemption idea, angel dust (now more related to his mafia background, no more porn jokes guys11!!), and attempting to get him clean so heaven doesnt make fun of charlie as much feel free to critique me! im not the brightest in character design, so it'd be helpful to get any tips and tricks with my design! be nice tho, im just a gyal might do another 😋(is it obvious i had a warrior cats phase)

Hi, can i request HC platonic little sister (female reader she/her), who wants to make her 4 brothers happy?
Like she knows mikey wanted that famous rare cooking book that got sold out years ago and she comes up to him saying " hey mikey, close your eyes and give me your hands, i swear it's not a prank! " and when she gives him he gets so shocked he almost cry and scream of joy at the same time.
She do the same with her 3 older brothers because she loves going so far to make them happy.
( in case you couldn't find a thing that may make the brothers so happy may i suggest; a poster of leo with lou outfit back when he was fighting in BNC, for Donnie a rare computer chip, and for raph she sew a ghost bear - she hates him btw - teddy bear big size for raph).
If this request is too much then please feel free to ignore/delete it.
Okay that's honestly so cute, I love that idea ♡

Little presents
Tumblr media
• you never thought you'll find yourself considering four mutant turtles your older siblings
• but it did happened somehow
• and you were really grateful for that
• there wasn't any boring moment with them, always having some sort of fun activity going on like Mikey teaching you how to cook, Leo showing you his favorite Lou Jitsu scenes or doing tricks with his blue portals that you had no idea how they worked, Donnie explaining to you how he build his inventions even tho you didn't understand any word he said or Raph showing you the best ways to protect yourself in the dojo
• they cared for you deeply and you cared for them
• that's why you decided to repay them for their kindness, you really wanted to make them happy just like they made you
• it wasn't easy but being a really determined kid you went on a mission to get your brothers some presents (April helped you get some of them because she was a little concerned you could get in trouble doing this all on your own and almost got a heart attack more times she wanted to admit)
• when you achieved your task successfully it was time to deliver the items to each of the turtles
• first on your list was Mikey
• and when I tell you he was extremely happy I mean he was absolutely delighted when you handed him that super rare cooking book that got sold out years ago and no one was printing it anymore
• he definitely picked you up spinning around and giggling saying "thank you" repeatedly with the biggest grin you ever saw
• he did question tho were did you get that and you started to tell him a story about that cool old book shop you found somewhere in a weird alley where cashier looked like a big owl, how she was very nice too and helped you look for this book
• Mikey thought he would pass out because how the hell did you get into the Hidden city- oh, you ran off already
• the next turtle was Leo, who you were able to find doing tricks on a skateboard
• when he saw you he momentarily stopped and asked what's up and why you and Mikey were so loud earlier, he stopped when he saw you handing him something
• he thought he would cry when he realized it was a poster - with him AND Lou Jitsu
• that was, like, the coolest thing ever
• he didn't even asked where did you get that, just thanked you million times and went to the first person he saw (which was Mikey, going to kitchen with his new cooking book) to brag about him being your favorite brother because "have you seen what cool pesent she gave me? none of you got something this awesome-"
• your next stop was a lab, so you knocked in a irregular pattern - a code that Donnie taught you so he knew it was you
• when the doors opened you went straight to the chair he was sitting at, tinkering with things you did not recognize
• not wanting to interrupt him, you slowly slid a little square to him, finally catching Donnie's attention, he lifted his mismatched goggles and examined onject and upon recognising what it was he let out a verbal "gasp!"
• Donnie isn't very good at expressing his gratitude but the excited sparkle in his eyes resured you he really liked that computer chip that he tried to get a grasp on for quiet some time now and even though you may not understand what exactly was so special about it, seeing the turtle so happy was enough to make your efforts on getting it worth
• and speaking of that "I am grateful for this thoughtful gift but, uh, could you enlighten me on how did you get into a possession of something so-"
• you, again, decided to disappear into thin air
• finally, the last one on your list, the oldest big brother, Raph
• finding him was easy, it was the time of the day for his training, so you headed to the dojo, already hearing him from afar
• announcing your arrival, not wanting to accidentally get hit, he greeted you with a smile and pat on the head
• the gift you had for him was probably the only one you did yourself (okay, maybe not entirely by yourself but for the most part that was true) - a Ghost Bear plushie, almost as big agroun
• your heard that he liked him, you not so much after hearing about his evil doings, but if it's what would make your older brother happy then so be it
• maybe for you it was not perfect, in some parts steaches were visible, but for Raph it was indeed perfect and he couldn't dream of a better present, which was clearly indicated by the loud thumping of his tail repeatedly hitting the ground
• "it's really amazing! and it's detailed too, just like you have seen him while sewing!.. wait-"
• let's say, you did end up with you making your brothers extremely happy
• and extremely concerned at the same time
• good luck with explaining where did you get all those gifts ^^

Angst
Author's Note: Some of you gave me ideas for this story and I got inspired mixing it with my own filling with angst, drama and fluff at the end. Thank you all for reading the first part and here is the second part, hope you enjoy <3
“ You know you could be a better father to your son and spend some time with him instead doing god knows what in here” Eddie’s wife waved a hand over the air looking around at the mess in the room. There were a pile of dirty clothes on the ground that she didn’t dare to touch. She didn’t know if something might be in there hiding waiting to jump at her. Her nose scrunched up smelling the stench in the room, a mixture of weed, sweat and something else. The bed was unmade with pillows thrown on the other side when Eddie took turns sleeping on either side of the bed. He laid on the bed with his feet facing the headboard and his legs brought up with a guitar over his lap and a cigarette hanging from his mouth. He laid with no desire to put on a shirt and his pants hung low with no desire to bring them up. 
“ God, I don’t know why I’ve married you if I knew you were going to be like this” Eddie looked like he wasn’t even paying attention to her when he strummed his fingers over the guitar. He could hear the someone running around the house. It must be his son. The sound of airplane noises confirmed that was. 
“ Eddie” she calls out to him with a huff noticing he wasn’t even paying attention to anything she was saying. “ Get your ass off the butt and do something with your life, be a father, be anything. You’re throwing your life away like a god damn dirty sock laying on the ground.” 
“ Was that your best insult to throw at me?” He spoke, removing the cigarette from his mouth and sitting up as he tapped the ashes into the bowl by the bed. She threw her hands up.
“ You’re unbelievable” she says walking out the door making sure to slam the door shut. He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose in annoyance. He moved the guitar off his lap and set it aside, carefully. 
His eyes scanned the room of the hanging posters, pictures and memories that reminded him of who he used to be. His hair was tied back in a loose bun, probably already in knots from the many times he rolled in bed and haven’t showered in a couple of days. His eyes scanned back to the photographs on the wall and one catches his attention. 
It’s a pictured of a young Eddie Munson standing with her by his side, his arms were wrapped around her but he wasn’t looking at the camera. He was looking at her like she was his pride and joy. She was his pride and Joe until he messed it up and now he lives a life without knowing what she’s doing or who she was with. 
The last conversation they had, she wanted nothing to do with him. He stood up from the bed and made his way to the photograph that caught his eyes. His fingers danced over the creases until they reached her face where he chuckled at the expression on her face. She had her tongue sticking out doing a silly face like she wanted meanwhile young Eddie looked like he was looking at the most important in his life back then. 
He remembers giving her this picture for her scrapbook that she was making for them. He remembers her kissing it and placing it with the others adding little butterflies and little flower petals that surrounded the book. 
There was a small knock on the door meaning it was his son that wanted to come in and see his father. 
“ Come in” Eddie spoke out putting the picture back where it was and turned his attention to the door watching it creak open and a small head peeked inside. 
“ Dad?” His son called out. “ Can I come in?” 
“ You can, bud. What’s going on?” The door opened wider and his son stepped in the room scrunching his nose up. “ What is that smell?” His son put his hand up closing his nose and waving a hand in front of his face. 
Eddie chuckled, “ Don’t worry about it, do you want to play bud?” He asked.
His son’s eyes light up like a Christmas Tree putting his hands together as he pleaded with those same brown eyes that he had. 
“ Can we? Oh, can we?!” His son begged, putting out his bottom lip. 
“ Sure bud, let me just get cleaned up and we can play” His son jumped up and down and raced back where he came from to tell his mom that finally his dad was going to play with him. 
Eddie shook his head with a small chuckled walking over to the pile of clothes that laid on the ground searching for a clean set of clothes. He brought the shirt up to his nose and took a sniff. It smelled cleaned to him. He got a new pair of underwear and a pair of socks from the dresser and made his way to the bathroom. He locked the door in case his son tried to come in and talk an earful to him or his wife that seems to get on his nerves now. 
The relationship between the two became stiff and cold. It didn’t look like the two even did anything together anymore. There were no more date nights, no talking about each others day after work and they were together for the sake of their son. 
Eddie’s eyes locked at himself in the mirror. His hair was growing a bit longer when he put his hair down from the low bun he had, he was due for a small hair cut. There was no way he was cutting all his hair off. It was the most precious thing to him next to his son. His son came first in his life. His eyes held bag underneath them from the many sleepless night laying in and staring at the ceiling as he thought about her. 
His beard was already shaped up from the day before, he shaped it up when he went to work not liking it to get too long even though it dragged the customers in when he appeared to help the ladies with their cars. 
His arms were filed with tattoos that he lost count on how many he had. He had one dedicated to his son when he was born and the wedding band on his hand looked stale from the color. It didn’t shine as it used to on his hand. His other rings stood out from the wedding ring on his finger. His hands gripped the sink as he turned on the faucet putting his hand underneath the water and bringing it up to his face, splashing it letting his face cool off for a bit. 
The same guitar pick hung from his neck adding a little rust to it but he never took it off as it was special to him. His hands let go off the sink and he stated the shower letting it warm up. He closed his eyes breathing in deeply feeling his body ache from working on yesterday’s car. He stretched his arms over his head and moved his head around, a yawn escaped his mouth and he reached over testing the water to see if it was warm. It was. 
When he was gone with the shower, he came out wearing a red flannel with his hair long and letting it dry on it’s own, he wore black pants with holes in his knees and his feet were in a pair of socks. 
“ Do you even know what a hairbrush is?” He heard the sound of his wife’s voice as she speaks to him. He glances at her with one look, scrunching up his nose noticing for the first time how much make up she has on her face. He bets in his head that it would take a total of three wipes to clean her face off. 
“ Do you know what a bra is?” He looks down glancing seeing her bra less in her shirt, scoffing. “ You walk around the house and out like that” she looks down at her top with a shrug. 
“ Don’t look at those. Here” she shoves a hair brush into his chest. 
“ Learn how to use it” she says to him before making her way into the bathroom and locking the door. He mocks her by taking a hair brush and using one of the mirror she had on the walls in the small house that they live in. 
“ Dad?” His son calls out to him. Eddie looks around tying to spot him when he sees his son in the kitchen, standing on the stool trying to reach for a snack that was too high for him. Eddie’s eyes got wide as he ran over to his son and took him down from the stool.
“ What are you trying to do, bud? You might hurt yourself” His son frown with a small huff and put his hands on his hips. “ I wanted my snack. Mom said I could have it” he points to where it is and Eddie reaches over it bringing it down for him.
“ Next time, just come find me and I’ll get it for you” He ruffled his son’s hair who wined over it trying to fix it back up while opening his snack. 
“Can we go play now?” His son asked with a mouthful of his snack.  He was just like Eddie, looks like him with his mother’s eyes though. 
“ We can go play now” His son runs out the door leaving it wide open.
 “ Bud! You forgot your shoes!” Eddie says, grabbing them besides the door and racing towards where his son took off slipping on his own shoes. 
He found his son playing outside sitting on the ground with his airplanes. Eddie kneeled down before him, helping to put on his shoes. 
“ You can’t go running off like that on me, what if you got hurt?” His son pouted showing those brown doe eyes like his father does. 
“ I do it all the time with mom” he says. The thought of his his son running away like that and his wife carelessly not paying attention made his blood boil. 
“ I’ll need to talk with your mother about that” he sits down next to his son. 
“ Which one am I?” He asks, pointing towards the planes. “ This one!” His son shoves a red and white airplane towards Eddie that holds a little pilot inside with a blue hat on it. While his son’s airplane is yellow with a red line going through it with a little pilot inside wearing a red hat. 
Eddie didn’t know the time it was when he looked up to stretch his arms over his head as his eyes caught on someone. His eyes blink noticing the familiar sun dress that she used to wear back in the younger days. Could it be her? His head tilted as he watched the scene unfold in front of him. 
“ Uncle Steve!” His son shouted scrambling from the ground and not even brushing himself with dirt off as he raced towards his uncle. But it’s not Steve who catches his eyes, it’s her. She turns hearing the boy run up to Steve who catches him in his arms and brings him up in his arms. 
Eddie’s eyes are wide as they try to process what he’s seeing right now. 
She smiles at the boy giving him a small hello. 
“ You grown so much bigger than the last time I’ve seen you. Have you been eating your vegetables?” Steve asked. “ How about your meats?” He added. 
“ Everything” Eddie’s son says while wiggling in Steve’s arms. “ isn’t that right, dad?” She turned to look at him locking eyes with him as the color on her face drains at the sight of him. Steve puts Eddie’s son down as he takes notice Eddie’s expression on his face. 
“ You” Eddie points to Steve and then he points a finger at her, “ You.” 
Eddie is baffled by what he’s seeing. Steve Harrington is seen with her. The person that Eddie hurt most and regret walking out of her life. She is here with him.
“ You’re together?” He asks, his voice was a bit shaky. 
“ Soon to be married” Steve says taking your hand in his, lacing fingers with her own and bringing up to show Eddie the engagement ring on her finger. The color from Eddie’s face drains as he looks between the two, feeling a betrayal from a friend. How did he not know that Steve was with her? How did it even happen and when? 
“ Congratulations” Eddie says throwing a thin smile towards the couple. Her head leans onto his shoulder, there is a look of happiness in her eyes and she looks at Steve like he’s given her a new brand world to be in. 
“ Thank you, what are you two doing out here?” Steve asked glancing down at Eddie’s son. 
“ We’re playing planes!” Eddie’s son shouts with excitement pointing towards where his planes were left at. 
“ And I’m missing out?” Steve asked shocked, “ Why wasn’t I invited?” He asked. 
Eddie’s son looked at his dad for answer, “ We got caught up.” Eddie answers dryly. “ Besides bud, Steve has a lot of things to do and he can’t make it today” Eddie’s gaze harden at Steve. 
There was a sort of tension between the three while Eddie’s son looked confused on what’s going. 
“ Yeah, I can’t make it today. Y/N and I have our plans. But you should come to the wedding” He says towards Eddie. “ Bring the wife” he adds too. 
Eddie’s fists clenched by his side. 
“ Sure, sounds fun” Eddie answers through gritted teeth. “ I’ll drop by the invitation” Steve says while she hasn’t said a word to Eddie nor the little boy, really feeling like if she said something then she might say something to piss Eddie off. 
“ Good to see you” Steve brings up his hand tapping it on Eddie’s shoulder. 
“ You too” Eddie says throwing a fake smile towards him, and his gaze move over to her as her expression is unreadable. 
“ Come on honey, we gotta get to the store before the close” he says, pressing his lips against her forehead in front of Eddie. 
“ Bud, it’s almost time for dinner. Why don’t we go wash up and you help mom?” Eddie suggested. 
“ Awe, but I wanted to play more” His son says with a stomp of his foot. 
“ We will play later” Eddie puts his hand on the small of his back pushing him towards the house. “ Bye Uncle Steve, bye girl!” His son says with a small wave as he runs towards the house.
“ Cute kid” she finally says. 
“ Thank you” Eddie replies. But Steve drags her along and out of sight before Eddie kicks an imaginary rock with anger and mutters curse words underneath his breath. How could Steve do that to him? He knew about the fall about between them and yet he chose her to be with out of every other girl in Hawkins?
At dinner he glared down at his food like it was going to burst any minute now and hit him in the face. His hand supported his cheeks as he looked down not wanting to look at his so called wife who was staring at him like she was burning holes into his head. 
His son has finished dinner earlier and excused himself to play in his room. 
“ What’s got you all stiffed up?” She asked, poking at her own food. 
“ It’s nothing” he mumbles like he doesn’t want to talk about it. He’s too angry at what he saw today. 
“ Yeah, no we’re not doing that” She says tapping the table to have him look at her and when he does, his eyes are black as they go and she can see the fire in his eyes that keeps rising. 
“ You wanna tell me why your all angry and moody?” 
His hands clenched in fist on top of the table, looking behind him at his son’s room seeing the door wide open and glancing back at her.
“ I saw her today” he mumbles digging a fork into his food. His wife eyebrows scrunched together trying to figure out who he was talking about. “ Who?” 
“ Y/N” he says. His wife knew about you and how the two of you broke up.
‘ Oh, did she say anything to you?” He shook his head.
“ She’s getting married to Harrington” the surprised look on his wife’s face didn’t overpass him as he nodded his head telling her that he was telling the truth. 
“ I didn’t expect that one” 
“ Neither did I” He sighs placing his fork down at leaning back into his chair.
“They invited us to the wedding, to bring our son too. You too” he says. 
“ What if I don’t want to go to their wedding? What if I don’t want you to even talk to her again?” 
“ Don’t be ridiculous, you like drinking and there will be food there and you can dance. You love to dance” 
“ But she’s your ex girlfriend Eddie, I don’t appreciate my husband being around his ex girlfriend. Let alone her wedding” 
“ Oh grow up will you. She’s in the past” 
“ Is she?” She takes out the same photo that Eddie had been looking at this morning and throws it on the table. “ I noticed this one on top of the dresser. It was on the wall in the bedroom in the corner and now it’s moved.” 
“ It must of fell” Eddie lies glancing down at the photo and picking it up, twirling it in his hands. “ This was a long time ago..” He adds. 
“Then, why don’t you throw it away?” 
“ It’s memories. I can’t do that” he says, setting it down on the table. She purses her lips and crosses her arms across her chest as she sighs. 
“ Admit it, after all these years you’re still hung up on her. You never loved me or appreciated our marriage” 
“ Oh here we go” he says, standing up from the table taking his unfinished food to the kitchen sink where he sets it down knowing she was going to cover it up to save for him when he was hungry. 
“ What? I’m not right, you still think about her, don’t you? It’s been years since you last touched me. We barely share a kiss now and then, you don’t look at me the same as you used to and why? All because of that girl that your so hung up on” 
Eddie leans against the counter with both his hands on the either side staring at his wife. 
“ I’m not hung up on her” He mutters and looks away. 
“ Look me in the eye and tell me she’s nothing to you” Eddie barely made any movements with his head to look towards his wife. He wasn’t going to lie to her anymore.
“ I found the scrapbook under our bed” Eddie gulped knowing what it is. It’s the same scrapbook you had made him of pictures with him, after each date, after each anniversary and anything else that special. He was special to you therefore the scrapbook was a gift to him. He kept it all the years. 
“ You’re not going to say anything? You’re not even denying that I found it” 
“ What do you want me to say?” He asked. 
She stood up from the chair with tears in her eyes and points to herself. 
“ I want you to tell me you love me!” She shouted. “ You married me, we have a son for god sakes together!” She continues. “ I want to save our marriage, Eddie. I do. But this is going downhill and I hate how this is going to affect you after you saw her today.” 
“ It’s not going to affect me. You need to relax and not raise your voice. Our son is in this house, in that room” He points to the bedroom door which is now closed. Eddie had taught his son if there was yelling happening in the house then he should close the door and put his headphones on to listen to music to tune it out. 
“ I love you, Eddie. Please” she begs him with her hands on his chest trying to get him back to her. Back to where he belongs but he can’t do it. 
“ I can’t stand here and lie to you anymore. You don’t deserve it” She steps back with tears rolling down her cheeks staring at him.
“ What are you talking about, Eddie?” 
He looks away as he mutters his next words, shocking her and himself. 
“ I want a divorce” he says. Her mouth drops opened and steps back, blinking her eyes staring at her husband in disbelief. 
“ We can work this out, baby” she says wrapping her arms around his neck but he pushes her hands away. 
“ I’m going for a drive” Eddie says taking his car keys and heads out the door leaving his wife in her own pool of tears while tries to clear his mind. He steps out of the door, taking the packet of cigarettes from his back pocket and lights one up as he makes his way to his car. 
He doesn’t know where he’s driving too but ends up at the diner where the light flashes in his eyes as he reads the sign. The colors are bright blue, yellow and orange as he steps out of the car and locking it. He has finished his cigarette by now and drops it on the ground to stop on it as he makes his way to the door. He could use a burger and shake right now. 
He know he was suppose to eat the dinner that his wife had cooked but he had no intention of eating it anymore. 
The door jingles and his ears meet chatter of the people inside and the smell of a good burger hits his nose and his eyes look around, stopping on a figure in the corner of the room munching on a couple of fries. He knows he should look away and not make any eye contact. 
But, she’s sitting there looking really pretty and he wants nothing more than to walk over to her, greet her and sit across from her to enjoy her company. But he’s shifting on his feet. 
“ May I help you, sir?” He turns his head, looking at the girl with her hands folded against her apron, titling her head as she waits for him to talk. 
“ I’ll like a booth” he says. 
“ Follow me sir” she says, waving her hand to get him to follow her in the direction she started to walk to.
Just has he walks past you, your head shoots up to watch him be sitting in the booth next to you with the menu handed to him. He sets the menu on the table as he looks over it while the waitress said she will be right back. She makes her way over to you asking if everything is alright. 
“ Yes, thank you” you grabbed onto another fry from your plate and shove it into your mouth. 
“ You know staring is very rude” he said catching your attention. You look around to make sure he was talking to you and he was when he looked up to catch your eye. 
“ I wasn’t staring” you mumbled once you swallowed your food. 
“ Where’s Harrington?” He asked not seeing Steve with you. 
“ He’s working” you answer him. 
“ Never imagined you’d be getting married to someone like him” your eyes grow into slits on what he was on about. He didn’t know you anymore like he used to. People change. 
“ What is that suppose to mean, Munson? Did I ask your opinion?” 
Eddie chuckled, “ My, my. We have brown some balls, have we? You were into guys like” he motions to himself and his choice of outfit which were a sleeveless Metallica shirt, pair of black jeans with a chain attached on the side and and a pair of black boots on his feet.
“ People change, and their taste can change too. Steve always looked out for me too” 
“ I’m sure he has. Harrington has his ways..” 
“ Just order your food and leave me alone, Munson” 
“ You were looking at me first, buttercup” he says. 
“ Don’t call me that ever again” you hissed. 
“ Buttercup? Does it upset you?” 
“ You’re so annoying, Edward” 
‘ You’re so annoying, Edward” He mocked. “ You’re really a cute little thing, aren’t you?” 
“ Don’t you have a wife that you could bother?” 
“ I’d rather puke my guts out than talk to her” He says. Your eyebrows raised in surprise. 
“ Marriage isn’t your forte, Munson” 
“ It’s a piece of work” he says with a shrug.
“ What did you expect? Rainbows and unicorns?” He chuckled. 
“ You’re food is getting cold, sweetheart” 
He called the waitress over ordering the same thing you had ordered when you call her for the check about done with your food. You weren’t going to talk to him anymore, not when he was trying to slip back in like the two of you were friends or something. 
She drops the check off by you once she gets Eddie’s orders and you hand in back to her with the bills telling her to keep the change. She gladly accepted it telling you how kind you were and walked off. You stood up from your seat and adjusting your shirt. 
“ I’ll see you at the wedding then” Eddie says to you. 
“ Oh? You’re really coming” He nods with a shrug. “ Don’t forget to drop the invitation off, buttercup. I know how sometimes you forget things” he says, a small smirk on his face.
“ Don’t worry, Steve will drop them off first thing tomorrow morning” Eddie frown hoping he’d get to see you again before the wedding which was coming up soon. 
“ Have a goodnight, Munson” you waved to him and h had out the door just in time as Steve’s car pulled up and you greeted him with a kiss when he walked up to you after getting out of his car to open the door for you. 
Eddie watched with a scoff on his face at the interaction between the two of you. Steve didn’t belong with you. It didn’t look right. At least in Eddie’s eyes. 
He watched as Steve closed your door and run to the other side, getting in leaning over to peck your lips before he drove off. Eddie didn’t know he was clenching his fist until the waitress put his plate of food in front of him. It smelled really good but he didn’t have an appetite anymore. 
It was gone. He hated Steve Harrington. 
Robin had kept it a secret from Eddie that you were even seeing Steve Harrington. It felt like another betrayal to him. He thought Robin was his friend and yet he looks at it now, he feels the anger radiate off of him. He didn’t understand why she would keep something like this from him. 
“ She didn’t want you to know” Robin tells him. “ She wanted it to be her own happiness, she didn’t plan to ever tell you if she ever saw you again” she sent an apologetic look towards Eddie as he sat on the couch of her home, he wanted to get some answers. 
“ I would be upset when you would of told me, but I had to find out from him when they walked past my house with my kid in the yard” Robin hummed. 
“ You know Steve didn’t mean to hurt you. He fell in love with Y/N, she’s the best thing that happened to him” 
Eddie’s eyebrows scrunched together as he remembered something. 
“ Wasn’t he going to go back with, Nancy?” He asked, looking over at her while he leaned against the arm rest. 
“ He was, but she chose Jonathan and that broke his heart” 
Eddie nodded looking down into his lap. 
“ She was there for him when he needed someone to lean on, even with me he kept to himself and she saw right through him and they clicked. He knew she wanted a family all along and he swore to her, he would give her a chance be a mother. It was the day he told her he loved her” 
“ Does she love him?” 
Robin smiles remembering the day you told her about it. 
“ She does, and I don’t need you to ruin it Eddie. Did you hear me?” Eddie was too busy in his mind when Robin tried to get his attention. She slapped him in the chest causing him to break his thoughts and glare at her. 
“ Ow.. geez. Thank you for that, I might have aa bruise now” 
“ Don’t be such a baby, Munson. I barely touched you” he lifted up his shirt to inspect where she hit him seeing the red mark on there.
“ Then what do you call this?” He pointed to the spot. 
“ Save your tears, Munson. I asked you did you hear me?” 
“ About what?” She rolled her eyes, with a groan. 
“ It’s like one thing goes in one ear while the other thing goes the other way. I said about you coming between Y/N and Steve. I swear to you on Dustin’s mother that you will have your ass handed to you. Do I make myself clear?” 
He nods his head, rolling his eyes. 
“ Good, now don’t you need to go home?” She points at the clock and his eyes go wide seeing the time. He promised his son he was going to read to him before bed.
“ Shit, see you later Buckely. Don’t be an asshole again and hide things from me” He ruffled her hair and ran out her door. 
“ He’s going to do it, honestly he’s something else’ she says getting up to close the door. 
For the next couple of days Eddie has been seeing Steve and you always together, walking hand in hand, laughing at each other jokes, kissing and hugging each other. It was like the two of you were everywhere. Every time he spotted you, his blood boiled and he ended up pacing back and forth fishing out a cigarette to smoke. 
He hasn’t signed the divorced papers yet but he’s been sleeping in his son’s room on the ground and doesn’t mind it. He sleeping in a sleeping bag he used to have, it’s still good as new. He’s been smoking a pack a day and the only thing he’s been doing is spending time with his son and rereading the invitation that Steve had dropped by shoving it into his own hands. 
“ Don’t wrinkle it or burn it. You’ll need it for the wedding” Steve told him before he left that day. Eddie traces your name with his index finger over and over again. 
“ What’s that, dad?” His son would ask looking over the invitation. 
“ An invitation to Uncle’s Steve wedding, looks like it’s you and me bud” he says, glancing over his son rolling on his back. 
“ We got to get you a new suit”
“ Shopping?” His son asked, scrunching up his nose. 
“ Yeah, bud we need to go” His son groaned. 
“ I hate shopping” 
“ Me too, but I have to get something too” 
“ Will mom come?” He asks. 
“ Do you want to go with your mom?” His son thinks about it and shrugs. “ Mom gets me toys” 
“ Of course she does, how about if you come with me. We can get ice cream, how does that sound.” 
“ Mom says I can’t have a lot of sweets” 
“ Well with me, you can” he pokes his son’s stomach making him giggle, his son moved away being tickles and Eddie knew it. “ Come on, come with daddy to the mall” 
“ Okay, but no tickles!” His son giggled before Eddie picked him and threw him over his shoulder racing to the bathroom to start a bath. 
When it came to the day of the wedding, Eddie was nervous feeling his stomach tie in knots and his heart racing. He felt like he was going to throw up at the thought of you in a brides dress walking down the aisle to marry Steve. 
�� Dad?” His son called out to him. Eddie finished buttoning his vest that he bought. He wasn’t going to add a jacket over thinking it’s too much. The sleeves were up to his elbows and his pants held the chain that he always used, adding his boots as the finishing touch.
“ In here, bud” Eddie says and turned seeing his son walking with a black suit on and his hair was combed back into a low bun like his father had. 
“You look good, bud” 
“ You do too, dad. I like this” he tugged on the vest. 
“Come on, let’s go before we’re late” 
When they arrived where the wedding was going to be held, Eddie was in awe in how beautiful it was. But his heart stopped for am moment seeing the look on Robin’s face when she met his eye. It was a warning glance. But was he going to listen? He wasn’t going to. He can’t stand there and not do something about you marrying Steve. It wasn’t normal to him. Nothing about this was normal. He walks up the steps to meet Robin where he pleaded her with his eyes.
“ I told you not to meddle into this” she says. “ This is their wedding date, Munson.” 
“ I have to try it my way” he says. “ Can you watch my son for a few minutes? I have to talk to Harrington.” 
Robin gives him a look like she’s upset with him.
“ Robin, I still love her and I miss her, terribly. I’ve made a mistake letting her go those years ago. I want to fix it” Robin sighs looking at the doors where you were putting on your wedding dress.
You were going to hate her. 
“ Go” she says placing a hand on his son’s shoulder. “ I’ll watch the little nugget” 
“ You’re the best” he says to her racing down the hallway where he had hope it was Steve’s dressing room to put on his suit for the wedding. He tried door to door, finding the bathroom first until he reached one at the end of the hall where he heard voices behind.
He threw the door opened almost flying into the room but catches himself seeing Dustin, Steve, Mike, Will and Jonathan in the room with him.
“ Munson?” Steve asked. “ What are you doing here?” 
“ I need to talk to you” he says looking around the room at the others, “ alone.” 
Steve looks at him skeptical, putting his hands into the pockets of his pants facing Eddie. 
“ What is there to talk about, Munson? I’m getting married in a couple of hours to the love of my life.” 
“ Listen-“ Steve shook his head knowing where this was heading. He knew. 
“ Munson, you lost your chance in having her in your life and I’ve picked up the pieces. I’ve chosen her and I love her. There is nothing you can do to stop it.” 
“ I love her too!” He shouts. “ She was the best thing that happened to me and I screw it all up with one mistake.” 
“ That’s not my problem” Steve says. “ Now you know where the seats are, go and find one with whomever you came with and enjoy the wedding. Our wedding.” 
“ You don’t deserve her” Eddie hisses.
“ And you think you do?” Steve asked. “ Don’t make me laugh, Munson. Your jokes are overrated and boring. Your time had a limit and I’m not going to let you ruin this wedding” 
Eddie growled and threw his hands up as he backed away from Steve and the others in the room still.
“ I’ll just talk to her” he says. Steve turned around quicker than he could blink making his way over to Eddie, getting into his face.
“ You won’t dare talk to my fiancé” 
“ I would” Eddie hisses. Steve’s jaw clenches tight and his fist are to his side. 
Eddie turns around to make his way over to the other side of the hall where you were getting ready to have Steve pull him back by catching his arm and pinning him to the wall with his face squishing against the wall. 
“ I said, you’re not talking to her” 
“ What is the commotion about?” Max walks through the door with El by her side as she stares wide eyed at Steve holding Eddie against the wall. 
“ Steve, let him go” Max says. 
Steve clenches his jaw tight but let’s Eddie go with another glare thrown his way. Eddie adjusted his vest and his shirt and brushes some strands of hair that have fallen behind his ear.
“ What’s going on here?” El asks looking between the two. “ Why are you fighting?” 
“ Don’t tell me he came here thinking he had a chance” Max says looking at Eddie then at Steve.
“ It’s exactly what he was doing” Dustin says. 
Max threw her hands up in the air with an eye roll. 
“ You lost your chance, Eddie. Let her be happy with Steve. They make each other happy and she loves him. Leave her be” 
“ I love her, I don’t want to lose her” Eddie’s voice cracks. 
“ You lost her the moment she became mine” Steve says. Eddie rushes past the girls and down the hall by being chased by Steve, Dustin, Mike and there rest while Eddie desperately was trying to get to you. He threw the door open almost collapsing on the ground.
You were spooked by him, wrapping arms around you scared that it was Steve trying to see you in your wedding dress. But your eyes grew wide seeing that it was Eddie, holding the doors open and out of breath.
But what shocked you the most was that the bodies tackling him to the ground. Steve was one of them. You screamed hiding behind Nancy, Vicky and Erica in hopes that Steve didn’t see you in your dress. It was bad luck. 
“ What are you bozo’s doing?” Erica asked. “ You can’t be in here” she adds. 
“ Especially you, Steve” Nancy says making her way over to him to push him out the door but he held back seeing Eddie wasn’t leaving. 
“ What is he doing here?” Erica pointed towards Eddie. 
Eddie straighten himself out and he said, “ I need to speak with you Y/N” he says. Your eyebrows knit together on why now he wanted to talk to you. Couldn’t he wait after the wedding? 
“ Talk about what?” You asked. 
“ We never got to talk what really happened between us and why I did what I did” he says putting his hands into the pocket of his pants. 
“ Don’t listen to him honey, he’s lying to you and just want to rip us apart” 
“ Steve..” You mumbled. “ I never got the closure I needed, I want to hear him out” 
Steve threw his hands up in the air. 
“ You want to hear him out on our wedding day?” 
“ We still have a few hours before we get married” 
Steve put his hands up and shook his head, “ Do whatever you want.” He left you in the room, with a frown on your face. You didn’t mean to hurt Steve’s feelings but you needed to hear Eddie out. You needed to hear his explanation and you thought it would be good for you. To leave on better terms with him. 
“ Can you give me a minute?” You asked Eddie. “ I need to change and then we can talk” he nods turning around to walk out the door with the rest following. 
“ I hope you know what your doing” Erica says following the rest and closing the door leaving you alone as you changed into something more comfortable. When you were done, you opened the door seeing Eddie was waiting for you against the wall. 
“ Come in” he followed you in, closing the door and he didn’t choose to sit. He felt his palms starting to get sweaty and he felt a little lightheaded when he turned to face you. 
“ Where do I start?” He asks, with a small laugh.
“ Why didn’t you want to have a family with me?” 
He sighed as he rubbed one of his arms up and down. 
“ It’s not that I didn’t want to have a family with you, Y/N. It was more of how I felt like I was going to like my dad. I didn’t want to be a disappointment and disappoint my kid. I had so many thoughts running through my head that day. You kept pushing me and pushing me to be around kids, it’s like you didn’t even stop to think what I thought and wanted. You never sat down and asked” 
“ You aren’t like your father, Eddie. Never. Ever. Not in a million years. I saw the way you treated your son, you aren’t like that monster. Your son adores you.” 
“ He’s my little nugget and the best thing to happen to me since we broke up” 
“ Why didn’t you come find me?” You asked. “ We have the same friends.”
Eddie nodded, “ You’re right. We do. But I was scared that you hated me after we broke up and I broke your heart. I couldn’t bare to look at you to see the hate in your eyes. It would of been too much but you’re right. I should of went to look of you, I should of asked one of our friends to meet up and talk about this..” 
He hung his head, “ God, I missed you and miss you so much.” 
“Why have a kid with her and marry her? Clearly. You’re not happy from what I’ve seen. The only happiness that radiants off of you is when your around your son.” 
“ No one really liked me back then after we broke up, and one night it was a stupid night where I went out to get drunk and danced with this girl which is now my divorce wife well getting there. Things began to happen fast from there and Wayne talked about having responsibilities and she became pregnant and I stuck to her, giving my little bud the best life I could give him.” 
“ You’re divorcing your wife?” He nods. 
“ I’m not as happy as you think I am” he says. 
“ So what are you doing with your life, Eddie? What do you really want?” 
He rose his head to meet your gaze. He’s giving you the look he used to give you all those years when he first fell in love with you. 
“ Don’t look at me like that” you shook your head. “ Not now” 
“ You know he’s not right for you. He’s not what you wanted in life, not a Harrington” 
“ You don’t know me anymore, Eddie. You don’t make decisions for me, besides I love him” 
The words hurt him more than he thought it would. It felt like a knife was digging into his heart. He head was screaming for him to leave, take his son and leave. 
“ What if I told you that I still love you after all these years? What if I told you that your the soulmate for me?” 
“ It’s too late, Eddie. I’m getting married to Steve” 
The door flew opened and a panic looking Dustin ran through the doors. 
“ Steve called off the wedding and sent everyone home” he says. Your eyes grew wide as saucers as you stood up from where you were sitting. 
“ W-what?” You asked, making a run for it down the hall to find where Steve was. You had found him sitting in one of the chairs that the guest were suppose to sit in. 
“ What the hell, Harrington? I thought we were getting married” 
“ I thought we were too” He says, running a hand through his hair before his eyes turned to glance over where you were standing. 
“ Why did you sent everyone home? Why did you cancel our wedding?” 
“ Because I saw the way he looked at you and I saw the way you had hope in your eyes. You still care about him? Do you still love him after all this time? Was I just a pawn in your game?” He asked.
Your eyes glossed over, making your way over to him and standing in front of him in between his legs and cupping his face with your hands. 
“ No, I love you. You know I do” He nods. But it looks like he doesn’t believe you. He leans into your touch, and gives you a smile. 
“ He’s always going to be there until he can swoop in and take you away. I’m not going to handle that when he does.” 
“ Steve” he shook his head standing up from the chair. 
“ You might not say you love him, but there is a connection between the two of you and I see it. I can’t stand and watch this between the two of you” you wiped the tears with the back of your hand and placing a hand on your stomach.
You had found out some news the other day, too scared to tell him right away and wanting to make sure it was the truth.
“ Steve” you gulped fearing at his reaction for the next words, “ I’m pregnant.” 
It looked like a pin could be dropped and it wouldn’t be heard. His eyes grew wide as saucers as his mouth dropped opened from what he just heard. 
“ You c-can’t b-be. We were careful” you nodded your head.
“ We were, but these things happened” he makes his way over to you and places his hands on top of yours. 
“ I will be so mad if your lying to me” he says. 
“ I’m not, you’re going to be a father” 
“ You’re going to be a mother” he says.
“ W-what?” Eddie asks as he stands in the middle of the room. “ You’re pregnant with his child?” He points towards Steve who looks like a Christmas Tree light up on his face from the news. 
“ Yes, Eddie. I’m pregnant” 
Eddie felt the room spinning as he tried to grasp into anything he could hold but it was no use as his eyes rolled to the back of his head before he collapsed on the floor.
“ Eddie!” Steve and you shouted, running towards him. You put his head into your lap tapping his cheeks for him to wake up. You had never in your life see him faint. 
“ Eds, wake up” you kept tapping his cheeks and it was no use. Steve took a turn in slapping his cheeks trying to wake Eddie up.
“ I swear he’s a drama queen” Steve mutters. Eddie’s eyes blink open and he locks eyes with you mumbling along the lines that he’s seeing an angel which he refers is you. 
“ Welcome back” Steve says to Eddie. 
Eddie tried to sit up feeling his head still was a little dizzy, he groaned grabbing his head.
“ Dad!” He heard the sound of his son’s voice before a small pair of arms wrap themselves around Eddie. It was his son.
“ I’m alright, bud” he hugs his son back while you and Steve let him be for now. 
“ Where does this leave us?” You decide to ask Steve. “ I’m not sure about being together, but I will be here for you and the baby… I’m sorry that we didn’t work out.” 
“ I’m sorry we didn’t either, but thank you for loving me all the years I needed you the most” 
He smiles softly, “ Thank you for picking up the pieces and putting me back together.”
“ Always” He wraps his arm around you and kisses the side of your head. 
“ Do you think you’ll end up with Eddie?” 
“ I don’t know, Stevie. He has a lot going on his plate and right now, I want to focus on this little nugget” you placed your hand on your stomach referring to your unborn child. 
“ This baby is going to be so loved” Steve says. 
“ And he has the best parents in the world” 
Steve and you shared a smile. Even though nothing was going to happen between the two of you, he was always going to be there for you. As a friend. 
Weeks go by and Eddie had signed the divorced papers, he had moved out of the house finding an apartment to live in and his son visited him any time he wanted. His son spend most of the time at the apartment. Steve and. You moved into an apartment together where he looked after you, not letting you pick anything up and making sure you were well rested, fed and feeling good. 
Eddie had stopped by multiple times checking in on you and the two of you started to talk a lot again. It felt good to hear him laugh at your stupid jokes again. You never got tired of hearing his laugh. 
The nine months of carrying Steve’s baby has flew by and you were in the back of Steve’s car while he drove to the hospital with Robin showing you how to breath in the back and Eddie sat in the passenger side holding on for dear life as Steve drove. He took turns left and right making the car slide through the streets. 
You screamed out, ready to have this baby out. 
“ Speed on it, dingus!” Robin shouts wincing when you grab onto her shoulder in pain.” Geez, what a grip you have” she mutters while you glare at her. 
“ I’m trying” Steve shouted looking through the review mirror seeing you were screaming in pain. When you arrive at the hospital, both Eddie and Steve carried you from the car to the hospital screaming for a nurse or doctor. 
“ She’s pregnant and ready to pop!” One of the nurses rushed to get you a wheelchair which you were happy to sit in but glared ups at everyone because you were close to having this baby out of you. You were ready to be a mother. 
“ Any day now, I am in pain right now!” 
You hadn’t know how many hours of labor you were in, but Eddie and Steve both stood by your side holding each of your hand. You were crying that you couldn’t push this baby out of you. It was too much and you are ready to pass out.
“ You’re doing so good, buttercup” Eddie says smoothing out your hair. “ I am so proud of you” The sparkle in his eyes encouraged you to push once again and push, holding on dear life of Steve’s hand while squeezing Eddie’s hand. 
Both boys groaned in pain not really expecting you to have such a strong hold on their hands. 
Then they heard it. You heard it.
The baby’s cry. The baby was here. Tears pooled down your cheeks when the baby was handed into your arms wrapped up in a pink blanket. You were shocked seeing how beautiful your child was in your arms. The baby cooed as it opened it’s eyes greeting you for the first time.
“ She’s beautiful” 
“ Just like her mother” Eddie says. 
“ What’s her name?” Eddie asked. 
“ Isabella Harrington” you tell him. Steve’s mouth drops when he hears that you wanted to give his daughter his last name. “ Y/N..” He speaks softly, already crying his eyes out seeing his little girl in your arms. 
“ God, she’s perfect” Steve says, leaning over to watch his daughter in your arms, “ you’re perfect.” Eddie watches as Steve interacts with his child thinking back on the day his son was born and he had the same reaction. He goes to step out to leave you to alone when you call out to him. He turns in time to see that you were giving your little girl over to Steve who happily took Isabella off your arms and began to talk to her as he walked over to the window to give you some privacy.
Eddie walked back over to you, and you grabbed his hand in yours. 
“ You did so good” he says. 
“ Eds.. thank you for being there for me for these past few months, helping me and checking on me” he nods not really knowing where you were going with this but stood there waiting for you to continue. 
“ I was thinking” he hummed as he rose his eyebrow. “ You were thinking…” he hummed with a small chuckle. 
“ If I wasn’t in this hospital bed, I would of flicked you in the forehead” he laughed, giving your hand a squeeze. 
“ But I was thinking that maybe down the line, we could talk about possibly an us happening?” His eyes grew wide when he hears your words and his head bops up and down like a happy golden retriever. 
He kinds was one. 
“ Are you serious?” He asked, making sure you weren’t just pulling his heart strings. 
“ Yes, what do you say?” 
“ I’ll wait as long as you need, buttercup. No need to rush. But I would like to hold Isabella if that’s okay” He says. 
“ Steve” you called out to him. Steve turns in his arms holding his daughter, pouting that he doesn’t want to let her go but walks over to Eddie. 
“ You can look over at her, I get to hold her. Got it?” Steve asked, already being protective dad mode. Eddie laughed as he nodded his head. 
You looked at the two as they interact with your daughter and you can’t help but see a future with them playing with your daughter, and raising her by your side, you can see her growing up to have a big family looking after her. 
“ You know little one, you aren’t seeing any boys until your 30” Steve says. 
“ Every boy has to go through us” Steve agreed while you laugh. A small knock came to the door, Eddie’s son peeked through the doors with Robin too. 
“ Everyone is here waiting to see the baby” she gasped when she saw Steve holding the little blanket holding your daughter in. Her eyes become glossy.
“ Awe, look at dingus and how happy he looks” she says. 
“ Get in here, Robs” Steve says. Eddie waved his son over as the two ran over to look at your daughter. 
“ She’s perfect” Robin gushes. 
“ Just like her mother” Eddie says locking eyes with you, sending you a small wink.

A few C.A Cupid HCs <3
(keep in mind i havnt seen monster high yet so pls let me know if there are any inaccuracies here)
guys idc. she IS a Demigod i dont make the rules
shes probably over 150 years old, but demigods age physically and mentally much slower than humans
knows everyones star signs
collects crystals
sometimes turns them into jewelry
sometimes gives the jewelry to her friends
Takes Halloween VERY SERIOUSLY
seriously her costume will genuinely terrify most students
cupid just. has a box of skulls in her closet. blondie has seen it but has elected to ignore it
her arrows do NOT force people to fall in love, she is completely against that idea
all they do is give people the courage they need to act on the feelings they already had
in the books, its canon that looking into dexters eyes without his glasses on has the same effect as darings smile, its basically a love potion
so i think it would make sense that that was the reason cupid started crushing on dexter
even after she realized thats what happened, those feelings lessened but never completely went away
so its been a struggle trying to ignore it and remind herself those feelings arent real
she occasionally collabs with blondie on her show
and shell always consent to an interview with blondie, but is always careful to only give advice, not to reveal any secrets about anyone
she has rom-com posters up all over her podcast studio
her favorite artist is mitski
her favorite class is creative writing
claims that tiktok is "her favorite human invention"
her and blondie went on gingers cooking show for valentines day
they make pink heart-shaped cookies and cake
everafterlings would be genuinely terrified of her monster high appearance
so she keeps that part of her completely hidden by using magic to alter her appearance
once took blondie on the roof to show her constellations
she would tell her the stories behind each one and their meaning
and if she personally knew or has met the deity the constellations are based on, she would tell blondie what they were like
you can actually find a few over a century old statues and paintings of her over rome and paris
like once a student was talking about how their parents were taking them to the Louvre Museum while on a trip to paris
and cupid just interjects with "oh cool! they have my portrait there!! :D" and everyones like ???? they what??????????
