#it goes beyond admiration of who they are and what they allow you to see from a distance.
Text
stuck on the fact that a big part of having a crush on someone is the desperate desire to be seen by them.
#it goes beyond admiration of who they are and what they allow you to see from a distance.#the moment you start yearning for them in your life is the moment you've decided#“Them. That is the person I want to see me.”#and when you develop a crush on a friend it's more like “I want them to continue seeing me. I want them to see me like they haven't before.

PATHETIC YANDERE
unwanted obsession 3
when obsession goes beyond admiration, it turns into repulsion and the search for love becomes a path of rejection.
cw: non-con, obsession, rejection, violence, stalking, humiliation, kidnapping, manipulation, murder, mentions of torture
(sorry if it's bad, I lacked creativity and didn't even proofread this chapter, by the way, last of this Yandere)
previous || masterlist
How would you describe trust? Perhaps a son who leans on his mother for comfort or best friends who are always there for each other.
However, the truth is there was no concrete definition.
Sometimes trust came in the form of keeping a secret, sleeping at the house of a friend who was just a stranger before, or even having food made for you in the knowledge that it wouldn't be poisoned.
Yet humans reimaned weak in the face of emotions and life was just a game that only the egoists survived.
Perhaps you were to blame for getting him obsessed with your touch.
Your blame for chatting him up at school.
Your blame for messing with his feelings.
Your blame for not blocking him when he texted you.
The regret was real and too painful to handle, but it wasn't possible to go back in time. You have to bear the consequences of your past actions and look for a way to undo them.
The process was slow and you were fully aware of it. The best thing you could do was start with small actions. By stopping pushing him away every time he came near, saying small 'thanks' or ceasing to speak insulting words.
After a month, you had to eat your pride. Whether it was crying for him to sleep with you saying you'd had a bad dream or begging for attention while you hugged him.
It was apparent that he enjoyed it and trusted that you were starting to fall in love with him in the same way he loved you.
But he was no fool, you were a liar, a manipulator and a deceiver. Yet he loved you in the same way.
Therefore, he needed to test you before granting you the tiniest bit of freedom. Like, for example, the first time he took the chain off your neck and then left you alone in the bedroom 'forgetting' to check the door. When in fact he was sat outside the room just waiting for you to attempt to run away. But you remained inside for hours, and not once did you turn the doorknob.
At one point he let you go into the kitchen as you wanted to eat your meal and when he saw your handiwork he was stunned. A few weeks ago he lied saying he was allergic to a certain food but you didn't add it to his food claiming you didn't want to see him get sick.
Perhaps he was already sick in love with you.
Your touch, your caress, and even your kisses left him wanting more. His hands squeezed your breasts and then traveled down to your private area.
"W-Wait! I don't think... I'm r-ready for this yet."
"You've been telling me this for the fifth time now. I'm starting to feel like you're just winding me up." He'd been impatient for a while, and you only teased him with kisses and, in the end, stopped him before he got too far.
He didn't give you time to breathe as he dragged you in for another kiss. No longer would your hands be able to hold him. All the rough kisses and forbidden touches started to disgust you and left you wanting to scream. Then he started to lay you down and suddenly you felt the volume pressing up against your clothed area.
You couldn't allow that to happen without a fight.
"Ow! Was that because I touched you?" Wiping his lip, his finger touched a bit of blood. However, he noticed the way you tried to drag yourself out of the sheets. You were so cute, believing you'd get away with it just by sneaking around like a little mouse.
"Aren't you going to apologize? Love? Are you ignoring me?"
"..."
"..."
"Please don't..."
"Don't you love me? Maybe... this was all just you faking it?"
"What... No, you're mistaken! I just don't wanna do it!"
"You think I didn't notice? You don't like me and have been trying to manipulate me the whole time!"
No, you couldn't let the plan fail like that. Not when it was almost over.
"I love you, Theo! I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you. Please believe me!"
"Lies... It's all lies. Maybe I should teach you so you never repeat it."
He freaked out out of nowhere as if he were a wild animal. Tearing your clothes, scratching your skin, and leaving you desperate.
Your attempts to cover yourself were shown to be failures. Your body started to get colder by the second and then realized you had nothing else on. Unlike Theo who was now removing his pants, revealing his swollen member covered by his underwear.
And another time, you tried to run away again but this time you were stopped by a strong pull on your scalp.
"Where do you think you're going, sneaking out like that?"
"Ah! Stop it, you're hurting me!"
"Oh? I am? Good then." Then he plunged your face into the pillow, catching you off guard. Bringing his hips closer to yours, you felt the tip of his cock caressing your entrance. Your screams, pleas, and cries came out incomprehensible through the pillow.
"Uh? What did you say? Do you want me to put it inside? With pleasure my love."
Suddenly it was like being ripped in half, he didn't care that you were dry inside and just shoved it all in at once. At this point you were starting to feel short of breath, maybe it would be better to pass out so you wouldn't have to remember this moment. But it seemed like that wasn't what Theo wanted. He pulled your body closer to his, everything was disgusting to you. His body heat, his possessive touch, and even his groans at being inside you.
"Oh~ So good. My love, can I move?"
"No- Ahh!"
"So warm..."
"No! No! No!! It hurts! It hurts so much! Please stop! Stop it!"
At first, he didn't move, letting you get used to his size. But you were mumbling for a considerable time, so he thought why not give you some pleasure? His hands went against your clitoris, giving small caresses.
He certainly found you adorable by the way you gasped in pain from his cock or refused to let him touch your pussy. It wasn't enough to stop him. And when you came on his dick after he played with your clitoris for minutes straight, he almost passed out with happiness.
Now that you weren't dry inside, he no longer saw any excuse not to fuck you. He turned you to face him with you covering your face from his while he penetrated you. At first, it was weak and slow, it was easy to suppress your moans but as time passed it became rough and fast.
Still, he wanted you to feel the same pleasure he felt. Did he think that a few kisses on the neck and face would solve everything? Nothing improved about the situation.
Most of the time you screamed, scratched his face, and then tried to crawl out of bed. All these attempts resulted in slaps or attempted suffocation.
Just attempts because he would never kill you.
It disgusted you as you felt his warm cum inside you. You could only think of taking the morning-after pill to avoid having a child, a baby that looked like him. All you wanted to do was close your eyes to forget everything, except you noticed his cock was still inside, giving you that uncomfortable feeling in your cervix. Panic was in your eyes as he began to thrust into you again. The smug smile on his face told you that it wasn't going to end any time soon, not when you'd kept him waiting for this moment for so long.
You can't remember when you slept. Even if your memories were messed up, your body would remember what happened. Though there was no stickiness between your legs, you could feel an immense pain from the waist down.
Trying to get out of bed felt like your whole body was under intense pressure, standing up and walking was difficult, but you managed to get in front of a mirror. So there you are, with your body full of bite marks, hickeys, and swollen eyes from all the crying you did last night.
Initially, you believed that he was just emotionally dependent and that you could play with his feelings as long as you didn't leave. However, in the end, he is just a disgusting monster who only takes what he wants in the end.
He didn't deserve to live.
You were going to kill him.
No, you needed to kill him.
The entire day you didn't say a word, nor did you dare get out of bed, hiding under the covers. It didn't matter if he called you, you wouldn't answer.
He didn't miss your bad mood. Theo thought he could cheer you up by treating you like a princess all day. After all, you'd given him immense pleasure last night, and for sure you were tired, so it would only be right to compensate you.
Kisses, affection, your favorite food and even all the attention in the world. At no point did he leave your side, even if you moved away or cried. All you said afterwards was "Leave me alone", which he didn't care about.
Perhaps at some point you freaked out and started throwing all kinds of objects at him to drive him away or break anything you saw in front of you.
"DON'T COME CLOSE TO ME!"
" Love, why don't you control yourself and give me that thing? You'll end up hurting yourself this way." He pointed at the sharp object in your hand, a few seconds earlier you had thrown a vase on the floor and ended up picking up the sharpest piece.
With each passing second, he approached you with a calm countenance, his hands outstretched for you to hand it to him. Glancing down at your palms, you noticed a burning sensation along with a thin line of blood. Then an idea flashed across your mind as you moved your hands closer to your neck.
"If you come any closer... I'll kill myself right here."
"Haha... How funny. Now quit joking and hand it to me."
"Do you really think I don't have the guts?"
"You wouldn't dare." His fear was palpable, you were someone unpredictable and therefore didn't know if you had the courage or not.
As soon as he saw the blade moving, his body acted on its own. His arm being cut off instead of your neck, preventing the blade from coming into contact with you.
He started to contain you by restraining your wrist in the hope that you would drop that sinful item, instead you fought back by kicking him right in the balls. Noticing that he'd dropped to his knees in pain, you didn't missed your chance and shoved the thing into his neck.
For the next few seconds, everything was a blur, Theo choking on his own blood as he tried to come to near you, as if the sight of you would make him less afraid of dying.
The gray carpet, red. Blood staining your feet along with the sounds incomprehensible and mumbling in the background. Neither the sound of your heart nor the cold pressure of the room consoled you at any time.
Yet you couldn't remain paralyzed at that moment, you needed to take action.
"Haha... How funny. Now quit joking and hand it to me."
"Do you really think I don't have the guts?"
"You wouldn't dare." His fear was palpable, you were someone unpredictable and therefore didn't know if you had the courage or not.

Yet you couldn't remain paralyzed at that moment, you needed to do something.
One year has passed since his death. Everything seemed unreal and you often found yourself recalling that it had happened.
Fortunately, you weren't in your fertile period when having sex with him, so it turned out that you didn't get pregnant. One less problem.
Many people say that when a traumatic event occurs, the adrenaline and despair leave your mind cloudy and foggy, not letting you think about anything. But your action after killing someone had proved otherwise.
Your case ended up becoming famous on social media, mainly because of a phone call made by you. A phone call after you killed your kidnapper.
"Hello? This might be odd to say .... but I ended up killing someone... My kidnapper, Theo whatever his last name was.... Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, I'm [Name] [LastName]!"
You'd swear that 85% of your time was wasted watching edits of fictional characters with your audio, it was hilarious to see.
But even though it was possible to see your calmness at the time, your parents urged you to go to therapy, at first you tried but the mere fact that you kept returning to the same topic made you stop.
Taking that help would mean that Theo had impacted your life in a good or bad way and you'd rather die than admit that. In fact, it's him who's dead and not you, just thinking about it makes you laugh. At the end of the story, he'd lost and you were still alive, making a life for yourself.
Currently you were studying at the university of your dreams after passing a difficult exam. You had a big group of friends who all had the same acid humor. Also got a new pet, a super affectionate kitten called Merry. The first time you saw it, you almost died of cuteness.
Perhaps in the end you'll always have a good life while he rots in the ground.

🕷Awakening Your Femme Fatale — Timeless Pick A Card
Why would you allow undeserving asses to look down on you when you are a literal Goddess? Every woman has that Lilith sleeping deep inside; just waiting for the right temperature to unleash her HOT GIRL POISON🕷
SONG for all piles: Forgive Me by BoA
MOVIE for all piles: Death Becomes Her (1992)
[PAC Masterlist] [Part 2] [Part 3]
[Patreon] [Paid Readings]
Reading guide 1: My readings are always unisex, but Lilith in astrology is a definitively fatalistic Female archetype. If you identify as operating more on the Feminine energy, this PAC could be about what's hidden or awakening inside of YOU~💄Or, if you resonate with being attracted to the Feminine energy, this reading might shed a light on the type of ‘dangerous woman’ you tend to recklessly fall for… or secretly fantasise about🙃
Reading guide 2: Some of you may be wondering why Death Becomes Her is a movie vibe for this PAC, due to the fact that our main characters do not end well at all😜It is a cautionary tale of when Lilith goes berserk beyond control. When Lilith has no self-control, her sense of rivalry towards women and disappointment in men cause her to become a reckless danger to herself as much as she is a menace to everyone else. With great power comes great responsibility. The characters in that movie were not responsible the slightest bit except that man (Bruce Willis kyah!) who eventually came to his senses🤷🏻♀️Remember, not all men are as idiotic as they appear to be🤭

Pile 1 – Amorous Manipulator
VIBE: Kimi ni Muchuu (crazy about you) by Utada Hikaru
your hidden poison – 8 of Cups
Are you aware of the fact that people tend to run to you for comfort? Something about you draws people in; you seem trustworthy, protective, reliable and strong, and they feel cared for in your embrace. They feel understood. You provide a sense of camaraderie. Little do they know, you really don’t care that much. You’re just nice, kinda. You like to chit chat every now and then. But you’re usually crunching numbers in your head—thinking how best to use these people for later purposes.
You’re cool, detached, and calculating about your every single move. You never really show people what’s going on in your private life. People can’t figure you out as you seem flighty… more like, elusive. You’re like a bird or fish ready to escape anytime the temperatures around you get burdensome. Deep down, you feel like you’re the one who wants to run away from these clingy admirers. ‘I don’t understand why they keep following me!’
Thing is… you’re kinda hard not to notice, you know. No matter what type of beauty you are—and you might as well be cute as a rabbit—there’s an animal magnetism about you. People want to please you and gain your validation. In essence, you have the natural ability to attract a lot of simps! How you deal with that, entirely relies on your wit.
your potion of seduction – Ace of Pentacles Rx
Sometimes you feel suffocated about the way people view you. But everyone behaves irrationally nervously because you’re too blindingly hot for the average person. You break down people’s sensibility, rationality, and wit. You leave those you’ve kissed witless for days, weeks even. Because of your nonchalant hotness, some people fantasise about keeping you to themselves in the dark. People… fantasise about you a lot. Like, a lot. All kinds of things they would be embarrassed to let anybody know—unless they’re sinfully shameless—which tends to only increase their nervousness when they see you again.
Due to the degree of people’s endless fascination with you, you may not be inclined to entertain just about anybody. But sometimes, you see a few intriguing fools amongst your admirers and think to yourself, ‘Ugh, I need entertainment. Let me amuse myself with these fuckers and see what happens.’ The results are often devastatingly hilarious. Those who chase you end up looking pathetic in your eye.
Those of you who are more empathetic sometimes feel a bit sorry that people crave your attention—your company—that much when they should know better not to expect anything remotely sincere from you. But those of you who don’t remotely care, gosh dang, it’s all just a silly game of winners and losers. And you, will never end up the loser in this game of manipulation.
Realise to RELEASE! – Queen of Wands Rx
There’s something almost evil in the way you perceive a sense of rivalry with those whom you perceive as being on the same level of hotness as you. It pisses you off when your puppets are looking at someone else and praising them for whatever low-quality beauty/charm/behaviour you find distasteful to yourself. But hold on, I’m not saying you’re entirely the bad bitch for feeling this way every now and then, because… The truth is, some fucks really be doing you dirty by praising others in the presence of you!
There are those who feel dreadfully intimidated by your unmatched beauty and charisma that they—ever so stupidly sneakily—try to bring you down by elevating others in such a manner. Hoping they’d be able to witness your feeling uncomfortable because that would bring them the greatest sense of reclaiming their power from the grip of your hypnotising sensuality. Honey, you don’t even have to be the prettiest gal in your country, people still perceive your beauty as unmatchable because of your inimitable attitude!
Eh, if you’re totally in control of yourself, you don’t compete. You know there is no competition. How can there be? There can be only one you and nobody can emulate what you do. Like for real for realzz nobody can. Have you noticed that not even those close to you have any idea how to imitate your behaviours? You’re some kind of unreal hotness that’s on a whole of another level.

Pile 2 – Dangerous Temptress
VIBE: Run Devil Run by Girls’ Generation
your hidden poison – 4 of Pentacles Rx
At some point in life, an ass you would’ve trusted with your safety left you for dead when you needed shelter/protection/assistance the most. This kind of scenario might’ve been a recurrent pattern in your life. Constant abandonment and betrayals that have caused you to believe you’re very unlovable. People’s sharp knives of rejection made you realise you’ve never been anybody’s most important person. You’re never anybody’s top priority. That realisation hurt you so much but also gave birth to your almost dangerous courage now to face any kinds of hardships.
In this world, there is no challenge scary enough to stop you from getting what you want. You’ve survived the scariest chapters of your Life—you’ve dealt with periods of lack, cold and nothingness that would’ve killed most people; what could faze you now? You’re a motherfucker daredevil and people know that. People can see your nonchalant courage and they’re frightened as fuck. You notice nervousness in their eyes all the time. You know they think you’re reckless, but they don’t know your story. And you don’t care, obvi.
You’re fiercely independent. Through abandonment and neglect you’ve learnt to refine your manifestation skills. Now, there’s nothing you can’t have through your own efforts. You don’t need anybody and never will you need to rely on another only for them to let you down. You’ve got all your own bases covered and there’s still more to be hedonistic about. You’re royal, almost scary to the people who are way below you. They may worry that you’re being irresponsible with your resources. But you don’t care; you’re nonchalant AF. Easy come easy go, baby~ There’s always more to make.
your potion of seduction – Page of Cups Rx
Clearly, you’re a hard worker on top of being extremely intelligent. That’s how you managed to bring yourself to such safety after everything that’s happened in the past. There was simply so much lack and restriction it was literally embarrassing what the world had delivered to your doorstep. But now, the fact that so many pretty and expensive things come easily to you intimidates people and they might secretly feel envious of you. They will never say it out loud though, since they want to be on your good side—because they know they could benefit from your royal attitude when it comes to your spending.
Something about you spells CrAzY to a lot of people. Even the dullest dumbest ass can intuitively sense that you’re a daredevil for whom there’s quite literally nothing you’re too afraid to do/attempt. And you exude this dodgy aura that announces to everybody you’re not the bitch to mess with. Unless they wanna risk getting burnt by you. Your feelings run deep but you don’t let your emotions get in the way of your achieving your goals. To others, it almost looks like you’re a heartless temptress no man could hurt.
Your secret though, is that you treat practically everything in life as a Game. Whether you’re having fun, working hard, or dealing with tough situations; it’s all a Game you do not intend to lose. But all games require a loser, and you don’t even care if sometimes you lose a game or two; it doesn’t bother you. It’s all play and the world never runs out of Games anyway. There’s always the next thing to entertain yourself with. This do or die attitude of yours captivates everyone as much as they’re terrified of your fiery but cold intellect.
Realise to RELEASE! – 6 of Wands
A lot of people watch you and they form opinions around your public conducts. You know you command attention—both the bad and the good. Does it bother you though? Well… sometimes. When you’re not on your best day and you have a lot of sad thoughts, you get irritated, a little, that people only see the bad in your conducts. You want to burn every single one of them to ashes and never deal with people anymore. But you are so singular in your beingness, what can you do about it?
People talk about you because they know if they were to talk about themselves nobody would be interested. You’re the most interesting creature most people have ever known! Whatever you do, you’re on top of your game. And you always allow yourself to come first. To you, you’re your most favouritest person ever. Yeah, that’s a mouthful but say that again🤪You are your toppest top priority, and this is a hard skill to get because most people have never learnt how to survive on their own the way you have.
You’ve been to low places others wouldn’t survive in; they can’t understand why you are the way that you are. Who cares though. Live and let live. You’ve got your own abundance to take care of now.

Pile 3 – Glamorous Destroyer
VIBE: Monster by Red Velvet - IRENE & SEULGI
your hidden poison – 5 of Cups Rx
Are you some kind of god? Well yeah, you ARE a Goddess! I sense you’re so otherworldly in that you’re not typically one who dwells on the past or even regrets that much, if at all. The world is so vast and it keeps spinning, there’s always a new day for a positive mind for braving new territories. You’re already a master at spiritual/emotional healing, but maybe… it’s also because you’re not so feeling.
You’re a realist, to say the least. You look at the world glass half full and everything that’s run its course, you let go without a care. You move right on to the next entertaining endeavour. In fact, you devour all of life’s little and big pleasures. You’re jet set; you don’t even plan that carefully. Details in plans bore you, you would rather do the deed first, then see what the experience gets you. If it falls short, you leave on the spot to find the next interesting thing… or person. You leave people high and dry. You don’t even give a fuck how that makes them feel. You have other people lining up for you to fuck over.
You are the epitome of a cruel femme fatale. You’re this uniquely powerful individual who has like the strongest mentality ever. I’m sensing, either you’re a very young person who has the most advanced Soul wisdom/perspective ever, or you’re very advanced in Life (age wise) and have learnt a lot of lessons that have made you the indestructible Goddess that you are today.
your potion of seduction – Knight of Pentacles Rx
You are unpredictable to a lot of people. Like, they can’t really figure out what your next step would be. One minute they’re certain you’re this typa person who’d choose this typa action, only for you to choose that typa shit no one would’ve guessed you’re that type to do that. There’s always an element of surprise to you. Some love it, some hate it. You attract an equal balance of curious followers and cowards who want to quickly run away from your hot mess.
Those who can’t see through your web of exaggerated narratives are deep in your clutches, they can’t escape your poison—they want your poison—until you decide you’re bored with them and toss them aside without having given them the high they thought they’d get. A few who do get the high…you’ve kinda ruined them in that now you live in their minds forever. And you’re a bad dream for those poor souls.
Now they can’t stop thinking about you but no longer can they ever have access to you. You’ve taken them to that guilt trip and it lives with them for the rest of their lives. Not only in your story, but in their story, too, they’re the villains who have disappointed or hurt you and caused you to toss them away👏🏻
Realise to RELEASE! – Queen of Pentacles
You’re actually super capable of taking care of yourself. But something about the way you look or speak or tell a story is very unassuming. Maybe you’re tiny and cute; maybe you wear dainty accessories or adorn yourself with bunny or turtle plushies. Giving others the impression of a harmless fawn who’s in constant need of cuddles and support. Your admirers flock to help and serve you. They want to be strong and useful for you. They want to appear big in front of you. Help you get out of trouble’s way when YOU are the trouble.
People are usually slow to realise—if ever—that you’re a glamorous destroyer of people’s sanity. People easily melt at your soft, or high pitched, voice. Something about the way you express yourself is hypnotising and magnetic. People can’t get enough of you nor can they feel like they’ve proven themselves enough to you. People want your approval because you’re so beautiful and talented in a way they think they can never become.
People see that you are deep and knowledgeable. Flailing here and there, they find you mesmerising with the skillsets that you possess but lacking in places they think they can fill in. It’s like, they’re thinking to themselves, ‘She’s a 10, but…’ Those ‘buts’ are but lovely to them. And they’d be blind not to see how little fuck you give about any of their opinions.

to continue on the “aus that exist in my head that I won’t write” train, one more inspired by this season of life series, that I would be more likely to write if I didn’t already owe writing a different superhero au dammit:
jimmy is a c-lister superhero. undecided on his power, but it’s like, relatively unimpressive, he’s a very local-scale guy, often gets kicked around by the actual a-lister’s rogue’s gallery so that the threat appears more serious level. he is a BIT resentful of this, and often schemes around to try to figure out how to get more notoriety and respect. these schemes are frequently bad, but hey, who’s counting?
grian is… not a c-lister, for sure. he’s a fairly notorious supervillain who finds jimmy’s general patheticness HILARIOUS, and therefore intentionally seeks jimmy out to bother all the time. in fact, grian would probably be capable of being a much higher-tier threat if he didn’t find tormenting jimmy so funny, but tends to be treated as a like, local rogues gallery type of villain because he has become totally derailed from applying himself to villainy.
joel is jimmy’s best civilian friend and ALSO one of grian’s henchmen. he sees no conflict of interest here. don’t worry about it.
this is the status quo for a while until, one day, a real threat arrives. we’re talking reality-threatening, truly evil, almost beyond human comprehension levels. it’s an all-hands-on-deck situation if you’re a superhero. jimmy, despite being wildly outclassed, shows up to the fight and gets the shit kicked out of him. grian panics, goes “NO ONE’S ALLOWED TO DO THAT BUT ME?”, kidnaps jimmy, and drags him to his evil lair to treat his injuries.
they argue a bit after jimmy wakes up, grian gloats about having “captured” jimmy for a bit, jimmy admires grian’s countertops, they just sort of hang out together. it’s going fine, right up until they see grian and jimmy’s faces on the tv. see, the powers that be want to have a victory. heroes are currently grieving the destruction that reality warper caused. and a villain that kidnaps a hero in the wake of a great tragedy? yeah, fantastic target for their ire. grian’s been upgraded to a massive manhunt.
and, of course, if they catch that jimmy’s actually just been mostly chilling…
before they can figure out how to solve that one (“turn themselves in” what on earth are you talking about that’s illegal), joel shows up, breathless. he has proof the reality-warper is still around, and no one believes him.
a hare-brained scheme is formed: they save the day, and surely THAT will get them out of this one, right?
anyway like I said not writing this but if I DID the title would be “villain arc”,

message from the stars ☆༉
WEEKLY ANON OMG HI!! TY FOR PARTICIPATING! missing you <333 ive been doing great!! im very excited for his event ^^ you're the first to send a request AHHAHSHSA,,not me thinking what to write when i have exams AGAIN next week <3 hope you like this!! have a good day/night! also this... went on a diff direction than i intended... manifesting for everyone who wants wanderer to get him!! good luck <33
*ੈ✩‧₊˚ cw: brief mentions of being stuck in a void so kuni panics a bit and gets rlly angry
To reach beyond the stars, past Celestia, was impossible for the Wanderer.
He may have received an Anemo Vision, but it is not enough to break the barrier that separates him from the world that resides behind it, a world where you existed. Every time he looks above the skies at times when you were idle, murmuring softly to his ears yet your will for him to do anything, such as fighting Hilichurls or completing commissions, doesn't take over, allowing him to do whatever he'd like, he would be thinking about you.
What do you look like? Are you perhaps taller? Or shorter than him? What is the complexion of your skin? The colors of your eyes? The length of your hair? He yearns for answers to questions that will never be heard, all because his voice could never reach above the stars. Just who is the person that owns the soothing voice that only speaks to him?
The voice that comes and goes like him, like the wind. A gentle breeze that makes his hair flutter, kissing his skin and slipping past his fingertips. A voice that one day appeared during his endeavors in Mondstadt, which was odd since it was during his first meeting with the Honorary Knight of the Knights of Favonious, the Traveler, and hasn't left him ever since.
Then, when he awoke from his slumber after being defeated by the Traveler and was finally free from the restraint of his past, your voice grew louder. And oh, how melodious it was to his ears. You sang nothing but praises and encouragement as he used Anemo to take down his enemies, spoiling him with luck and guidance to achieve greater strengths he could have never acquired before without you.
With a hand outstretched toward the stars he once admired, forever twinkling in the vast and infinite darkness of space, forming shapes to lead those who are lost back into the path they strayed from, he wishes upon a shooting star; to give him a chance.
A chance to get to know you, to see your face... or at least know the name of the person who spoke nothing but promises of loyalty and adoration. If only...
Closing his hand into a fist, Kunikuzushi continued on his path, figures of the little fae named Paimon, and the Traveler, not too far away from him. Both waved at him, yelling at him to hurry up.
He scoffed, but he can't bring himself to stop the growing smile on his lips.
As Scaramouche, he would've loathed you more. For being so damn unreachable, for making him crave a feeling he's only felt from you, for not hearing his words. But now, as the Wanderer? A free man?
Well, he could only hope. Hope that one day, in his travels around Teyvat as his new self, he could reach you.
The last thing the Wanderer could remember was a bright, empty flash of white.
His memories were blurry beforehand, but he was definitely sure that he, the Traveler, and Paimon visited Nahida before moving onwards to Fontaine.
Now, he was stuck in an empty void of white. No sound could be heard, nor feel a molecule of air. Gravity, time, space— it was as if everything that existed ceased to exist.
But what scared him the most? You disappeared. The sense of serenity that would follow him no matter where he went had vanished, as if the string that tied you both together has been severed.
So he shed tears like never before. Tears wet his clothing, streaming down his cheeks, all the way to his chin. He wailed though there was no one to hear his misery.
Yet another betrayal.
How foolish of him to trust you— a mere faceless, disembodied voice that appeared out of nowhere and clung to him like a bothersome insect that refused to drift away.
Lies. Your words were nothing but lies, pouring into his hollow body and waiting to topple over, just waiting for him to realize that it was nothing but filth that came from your invisible lips.
Yet try as he might, tears endlessly flowed. No matter how hard he wiped them away, or quiet himself from screaming once more, he continued to lament the loss of everything he knew of. Stuck in a void, he grits his teeth as he began to choke on his own cries, clutching his hat so hard it almost breaks.
He was too caught up in his grief that he hadn't realized that his surroundings gradually formed. What once an empty space of nothingness, turned into a... room? Filled with foreign objects, never to be seen in Teyvat.
Only when he heard a silent call of his name, accompanied by a breathless gasp and the loud shattering of a glass object, splashes of water reaching his porcelain skin, was he snapped out of his pain-stricken stupor.
"Scaramouche?"
Similar to the first time he's heard your voice, something in his chest thrummed, as if he had a heart. Though his vision was blurry from his tears, he couldn't help but let out another sob as he finally laid his eyes on you.
So, it wasn't betrayal, wasn't it?
Even in a confused state, you were quick to respond. Getting down on your knees whilst he crumpled to the ground, you brushed your fingers against his cheek, wiping away his tears, but then flinched back. Perhaps you've realized who he was, for he was sure that you knew him a lot, maybe even more than himself.
Scaramouche. Kunikuzushi. Wanderer. The person you've guided in countless adventures, cheered him on in numerous battles and favored him even if he was stained with unsightly vile. A puppet.
When Scaramouche grabbed your wrist, gentle and cautious not to hurt you, he let out a desperate whimper for your touch. He couldn't bring himself to speak, voice broken from hours and hours of cries that were swallowed in the void. But he pulled you close, to feel more of your serene presence, to finally experience the warmth you gave from your voice up close.
And it only felt natural when you wrapped your arms around him, stroking his hair and cooing in his ear. He wept for god knows how long on your shoulder, but you hadn't minded. You never did, you always cared for him so much.
Even if you're mere strangers, even if this was your first meeting... Being in each other's arms only felt natural.
Not when you've yearned for one another across the barrier that separated you.

TWST BOYS AS YOUR BOYFRIEND
Just some headcanons on what I think they would be like as boyfriends ♡
Heartslabyul - Savanaclaw - Octavinelle - Scarabia - Pomefiore (here!) - Ignihyde - Diasomnia
• first off, this man has high standards
• so he probably wouldn’t have jumped into a relationship with you right away
• but when he does, that shows how much he values you
• he is your personal outfit coordinator
• wants you to look your best but won’t neglect your comfort for it
• spa dates!!
• not only is it good for him as well, but he loves being able to pamper you
• from now on, you’ll only be using the best products that he gets for you — making sure they suit your specific needs and preferences
• would make sure you’re staying hydrated and would probably fix your eating habits to make it healthier as well
• might come across as nagging sometimes, but he genuinely just wants you to be your best
• if it ever gets too much, just talk to him and he would back off a bit
• there might be arguments that arise, especially from his almost controlling behavior, but they’re never extreme
• usually you’ll talk it out fairly quickly and the issue would be resolved
• keeps your relationship pretty private
• only because he wants your privacy to be maintained, and he doesn’t want his fans (those who are toxic) to attack you
• he doesn’t want you to deal with that criticism
• this means PDA is fairly limited
• at the school he’s not shy about kissing your cheek or brushing you hair out in public, but not much beyond that
• outside of the school it’s even more limited
• but if you guys are out and paparazzi somehow finds you, he will take you in his arms and shield you from the blinding camera flashes
• he will spoil you
• not an excessive amount, but shopping sprees aren’t uncommon
• if someone talks bad about you or bothers you, first he’ll send Rook to find them
• then he’ll verbally berate them in a way that’s polite but also extremely snide
• he won’t make a scene though
• then he’ll make sure their words/actions didn’t get to you too much
• Rook, as with everyone, sings your praises all the time — constantly talking about how you and Vil are the most beautiful couple
• Epel can’t understand you; why would you want to be with Vil? Willingly putting yourself in a position where you’re often subjected to his lectures??
• he thinks you’re crazy
• but despite what he says, he does care about Vil and admires him, so he’s happy for you guys
• Epel also appreciates how when you’re around Vil’s attention is on you instead of him
• Vil will help you study if you ask
• he is not a jealous person at all
• his ego is too massive — he knows he’s the best so he’s not worried about you choosing anyone else
• although, he does get a bit more worried when Neige is around
• speaking of which, tries to keep you away from Neige as much as possible
• will allow you to come watch some of his modeling gigs or be on the set of his movies
• even though he’s already got a massive ego, he still appreciates it when you compliment or praise him
• he’s decent at comforting, but has his own way
• when he sees you’re upset, he’ll whisk you away to take a nice, hot bath
• then, with your permission, he’ll give you a massage with oils and everything
• he’ll listen to all of your problems and offer his advice
• his dad means a lot to him, so he wants you to meet him, but won’t rush it
• he wants everything to go smoothly and for you to get along
• his dad would trust his sons judgement and would ensure you are with Vil because of who he is as a person, and not money or fame, but over all he’s very supportive
• all in all, Vil is the type of boyfriend who wants you to be your best ♡
• not gonna lie he probably stalked you first—
• but only because he found you interesting and wanted to understand your likes/dislikes before really approaching you
• as a boyfriend though, this man will worship you
• you’re right up there with Neige and Vil
• not a day goes by where he doesn’t shower you in praises
• this also means he’s not a jealous person at all
• if someone’s complimenting you, he’ll join them; his eccentricity will usually scare off the other person from furthering their advances anyways
• will write you poems and even serenade you
• if you’re ever curious on hunting, he’ll gladly teach you!!
• does that thing where he stands behind you while fixing your position and grasp on the bow—
• loves PDA, but won’t push you past your comfort zone
• when y’all hold hands, he’ll gladly swing your arms because he’s just so happy to be with you
• arguments aren’t that common, usually it’s just you wanting space, and if you tell him that he’ll gladly listen
• sometimes he’ll appear out of nowhere, lowkey scaring you
• absolutely adores it if you take his hat and wear it yourself
• if anyone talks bad about you or messes with you, he will find them and threaten them in a way that doesn’t seem actually that threatening, until you see his strained smile—
• his priority will be making sure it didn’t affect you too much though
• he’s also extremely attune to your body language and emotions almost scarily so
• will wrap you in his arms and whisper sweet nothings to you, rocking you back and forth until you’ve calmed down
• if you express any interests or hobbies, he could listen to you talk about it for hours and never get bored
• might also try to learn more about it himself so he could understand you better; in fact, maybe you could teach him!
• you’ll never feel like he isn’t listening to you
• he’ll make sure you’re taking care of yourself, but not in an overbearing way
• has very endearing nicknames for you
•it’s hard to surprise him, but he’ll always indulge you
• loves to swing you around in his arms
• spoils you, but more so with handmade things rather than bought things
• probably has a photo book dedicated to pictures of you and him (sometimes it’s just pictures of you tho—)
• he is very much a hopeless romantic
• Vil doesn’t really have much of an opinion on you, but he can tell how much Rook loves you
• Epel also doesn’t have much of an opinion on you, but he can get grossed out by all the lovey dovey displays
• he would love for you to meet his family, especially all his siblings!
• except it’s hard to get them all in one place, so you’ll most likely meet them separately and at different times
• unless you go with him on the holidays, which he would love!!
• over all, Rook is a romantic boyfriend who’s always singing you praises ♡
• he will constantly be trying to prove himself as “a man” to you
• just remind him that you like him as he is
• will simultaneously be upset and flustered if you call him “cute” or “adorable”
• if you call him handsome or manly though? He will be so proud and ecstatic
• will definitely try to carry you to prove how strong he is
• he would like to claim he doesn’t get jealous
• but he does
• especially if the person hitting on you is taller or stronger than him
• he’ll get really huffy about it, so you’ll have to comfort and reassure him
• arguments don’t happen that often, but it’s usually because you might want to be more independent
• if you express this to him, he’ll be a bit upset — he just wanted to help you — but will understand
• outdoorsy dates!!
• he grew up on a farm, so he loves being outside, and with you?? even better!!
• if you go visit him during spelldrive practice or games, he’ll be so happy
• especially if you act as his personal cheerleader
• he loves the support, and he gets to use it as an opportunity to show off
• Leona and Ruggie will tease him though
• Epel would love to be more dominant when it comes to PDA, but… he still gets flustered easily
• so there’s not much PDA that actually happens
• will definitely brag about dating you to the other first years though
• they get annoyed with all his boasting
• will fight anyone who talks bad about you or messes with you
• no matter their size or strength, he will take them on
• and the fact he’s doing it to protect you fuels him even more, so chances are he’ll win
• would really appreciate it if you patched him up afterwards though, because it shows how much you care
• he wants you to know you can rely on him and that he’ll always be there for you
• he’s not the greatest at comforting you, but he really tries his best
• he’ll probably just hold you in his arms; he’s fuming at whatever upset you though, even if it’s something inanimate
• gifts you so much apple stuff
• he also makes apple carvings for you, usually based on things he knows you like
• Epel feels comfortable around you and will allow his accent to slip
• and if you embrace it, he’ll appreciate you even more
• Vil is fine with you, but he’s just worried about your influence on Epel
• Vil is always trying to make sure Epel’s actions are gentlemanly
• Epel will reluctantly listen most of the time
• Rook thinks you guys are adorable and is always praising how it’s “young love”
• Epel would love for you to visit Harveston and meet his family
• his grandma and mom love you
• they also love embarrassing Epel, much to his dismay
• especially when it comes to baby pictures
• all in all, Epel is a fun-loving boyfriend who is ready to protect you ♡

why dont u ship chapa and bose?
Personally, when I ship two characters, it goes beyond me just thinking they would look good together. I think about the moments that they share, them as characters individually, how they could build on each other mentally, and how I see them working out in the long run. Bose and Chapa as a couple doesn't click those aspects for me. I know the saying is opposites attract, but that's always due to it's in depth. For instance, two people can be opposites, but they must balance each other out, have common ground, and Bose and Chapa don't have enough of that. Yes they both care about each other, (more shown on Chapa's side) but it never gave more than friends. Also I sense that Bose is too sensitive and fragile for Chapa, she lacks patience with him and she obviously doesn't think all too highly about him. For instance when Chapa was describing Bose as being pure, she was quite literally describing the characteristics of a child and you could feel the protective she she has for him in a older sibling type of way. Bose’s pureness to her can sometimes leave her feeling overwhelmed and annoyed but only SHE can feel that way and no one else is allowed to take advantage of it.
If they were to ever be in a relationship, it would just be toxic for Bose because as i stated she might admire those things about him but they aren't something she can nurture, it would be mentally draining for Chapa.
Besides, there have never been any actual romantic implications that weren't surface level when it comes to interpretation that would make me think, "Could they possibly have romantic feelings for each other?" And don't get me wrong I use to ship characters who's never even met but again I base it off those 4 questions I ask myself. Bose and Chapa are in the same show and have many interaction but the romantic chemistry is not there for me.
(But what REALLY makes me dislike it is the disturbed entitled shippers, I just can't let be happy knowing the type of foul thoughts and thing they say about other df ships)
#i might have to pin this bc ive answered this questions more times than i can count lmfao#danger force#dangerverse#nickelodeon#thats that:)#bose o'brien#chapa de saliva

How Murphy's Handle the Law
At the core of MML is how differently people handle Murphy's Law, both those who have and do not have it.
Martin - Martin I think is more sensitive about Murphy's Law than Milo. (Apologizing for his presence sobbing). He also seems more prone to exasperation with his condition than both his son and brother (as evidenced when he was left with the ponies on his roof). Martin I think is more aware of when it might be for the best for him to leave. He has his moments, but has avoided areas where Milo is to avoid doubling up on Murphy's Law. He owns Murphy's law by working in an industry perfectly suited for it, where his presence makes it easier to find safety hazards, his familiarity with dealing with problems makes his skills appreciated, and generally in an industry where people area already prone to trying to be safe, so he's not so out of place, and there's already safety precautions in place for things going wrong. To a certain extent I think he plays it safer than everyone else in their family. That isn't to say he lives in fear of his condition, he still goes on road trips, roller skates as a hobby, and played sports. But he tends to live a little more in the lines of his condition.
Milo - A lot of how Milo deals with Murphy's law goes without saying, as he is the titular character, but it's still distinct from everyone else's handling of it. I think Milo is one of the more proactive people when it comes to EHML. His backpack allows him to prepare and react to it. He doesn't seek out danger, per se, though isn't afraid of taking risks. He understands people's fear of him, and sometimes feels the need to apologize, or act in ways to minimize the effects he has on other people. But he takes nearly every chance to be present or to try something new, often having to be asked to take a step back for everyone else's sake. He grew up in a family not easily phased by Murphy's law. His mother a bit of a daredevil (not that she advertised it), who had a go with the flow attitude about life. His dad was calmer about Murphy's law, and as a safety inspector actively sought out ways of minimizing its effects. Obviously he admires his dad and models how he handles EHML in part after him, knowing the value of safety precautions, what is and isn't worth working with Murphy's law, and it's his dad who taught him its okay to be afraid but you have to keep going, which is probably the most important key in handling Murphy's law. But Milo does have his own way of doing things too. His mom's patience and endless support I think also contribute to Milo's optimistic attitude.
But I think one of the biggest contributors to how Milo handle's EHML is his expansive support network beyond his parents. He started with a sister to act as a built in friend and non-EHML support aside from his mother which provided a baseline I think for how he interacted with non-EHML peers. Unconditionally loved, worth taking risks, but sometimes please give space. He had Veronica, who is just freakishly resourceful, as a babysitter to prove to him that Murphy's Law can be managed and isn't worth being afraid of, which I think gave him the confidence boost that he has over Nate and Martin. And last but not least, he had Melissa, who was someone he could count on in school, who was certainly not there out of obligation. Melissa was able to look out for Milo, we see her defend him against substitutes, but he was able to look out for her against Murphy's law. While we don't really get the social lives of any other Murphy's, judging how Milo had one real friend, who he's had since 1st grade, probably isn't a good sign for other Murphy's. He also, of course, has Diogee, who shows up to bail him out of some of his problems, and the value of a loyal, huggable friend cannot be understated.
Joey - We don't see much of Joey, but from what we do see he's hard to rattle and is a glass half-full kind of person, seemingly with almost the opposite attitude as Martin. While we don't really know about the exact situation of their childhoods, they were probably quite similar, so its notable how different their attitudes ended up being. He was just surrounded by a lot of Murphy's law. Between his brother and father, who he certainly spent a lot of time with, Murphy's law solo probably seemed much more manageable.
Laura - We don't see much of Laura either, but she's clearly just as chill about the whole situation. Not very easily phased, which makes her a good fit for Joey. They can just deal with the problem, and move on. It is what it is.
Nate - I think Nate's Murphy's Law denial is an extension of just how unflappable his parents are about Murphy's law. Crazy things happen to him, and he just. Denies. I think he genuinely has a skewed sense of normal. XYZ happens, no big deal. (Definitely not Murphy's law) totally normal. Now this is more extrapolation, but I do think he's genuinely going through a bit of a phase, trying to sort out his own feelings about his family curse, which I think he may have struggled to do in a household of "this terrible thing isn't bad actually". So he wants to be able to be frustrated with stuff, but he feels he has to be okay with the bad things. And he's figuring out who he is outside of Murphy's law (and the Murphy family). We don't know much about his branch of the family, but it may be fair to say there was a bit less attempt to control Murphy's law, than on Milo's side, (based on what little we know about his parents) so Nate probably never felt particularly in control of his life in the way Milo has learned to gain some form of control. (It's also likely he didn't have the same level of outside support as Milo).
Not to say Joey and Laura are necessarily bad parents, it can be exhausting trying to fight to control something uncontrollable, so just minimizing energy spent resisting is a valuable strategy. It just maybe didn't work out for Nate specifically.
Grandpa - It's kind of hard to gauge him due to his limited screentime and always talking over grandma. But he's proud of Murphy's law, and seems to think about it in an old fashioned sort of way. It's the basis of their family, the foundation of their identity and their traditions. He's who raised Martin and Joey. He has the unfazedness that seems to come from being a Murphy, the pride in their identity, and an appreciation of family that all Murphy's seem to have.
Grandma - Even harder to gauge than grandpa. But she raised 2 sons with Murphy's law, and has proven herself to be a tough old woman who doesn't take nonsense. I get the impression she's the kind who deals with Murphy's Law via brute force. So she's about as much of an expert on EHML as one can be without actually having EHML. She loves her family dearly, but still appreciates time without Murphy's law, which I guarantee she had very little of back in the day. I think it's worth noting that her hairstyle is reminecent of Sara's. Dare I say, she and Sara are the two woman in the family most accustomed to Murphy's Law but from opposite ends, where Grandma's is an acquired familiarity after decades building a family in its reach, Sara doesn't know any different than a life with Murphy's law.
Sheriff - Honestly, doesn't even seem to notice Murphy's Law, his outlook isn't unlike Joey or Nate's in that regard. (You think he married a time-traveler?)
Brigette - Brigette marrying Martin and her handling of Murphy's law makes sense with what little we know about her person outside her family. She's a daredevil, and she isn't a particularly decisive person (having changed careers several times). She's flexible and loves the thrill. So marrying a walking hazard zone makes sense. Obviously she gets frustrated with it sometimes, everyone does, but she never really seems to hold it against her husband or son, and tries to work with them to succeed.
Sara - She may not be born with EHML but she's lived with its effects her whole life. She's learned to prepare, what to prepare for, and lives her life around its ebb and flowing presence in her life (not unlike her mother), taking advantage of when her dad and brother are out or sick to work on more delicate work. She probably learned to dial 911 before she even knew how to write her own name. She's not unfazable in the same way Milo or Joey, or even Melissa often is. But she's not bothered by life threatening things. However she's bothered by things that are important to her (ie Dr. Zone and Neal from the Comic Shop) being damaged or ruined, but she doesn't blame her father or brother, and would rather they be there. With the Dr. Zone movie, she went to extremes to keep Milo from messing them up, but genuinely wanted Milo there more than anything (she wanted things to go well for him too), and with Neal, things worked out even with Milo showing up (she didn't want to scare Neal away from her and her absurd family).
I think the biggest way Murphy's Law has effected Sara is that she is very independent. On some level its typical for a girl of her age, but to a certain extent its atypical of the very close knit bond the Murphy family has (probably due to being each others main form of emotional support in a world that isn't always the most welcoming). For instance during christmas she was watching Dr. Zone while her family ate, and got invested in Dr. Zone fandom shenanigans while her parents went shopping and her brother and his friends when horseback riding. And then her parents forgot about her. Part of this is just her being very absorbed in her own specific interest. (Dr. Zone). But it makes sense that growing up in a household with a brother (and to a lesser extent father), who needed a bit of extra support, Sara got relatively less attention, and figured out how to look out for (and entertain) herself. (NOT blaming the Murphy parents. It's just one of those things that happens). Milo is pretty independent too (not being able to count on anyone else to look out for Murphy's Law). I think both Murphy kids grew up needing to figure out how to fend against dangers. But for Milo the dangers were a more ever present problem, one that the Murphy family was built around, and for Sara she had to figure out her own identity outside of Murphy's law and the family (Though notably, it was her father who introduced her to Dr. Zone, and Milo himself is a Dr. Zone fan, even if he, isn't as huge a superfan of Dr. Zone. Their family is also a Dr. Zone family. That's just dwarfed by the Murphy's Law thing. And for Sara, having grown up in a family where basic things can be a battle, and a positive hardworking attitude is the only way to survive, Sara, without Murphy's Law, probably has a lot of energy, and no constant outlet the way Milo does. Neal says he admires how she has strong feelings about things. All the Murphy's have strong feelings about things, (the ocean, Murphy's Law, concrete), but Sara's strong feelings are just a bit more laser focused on Dr. Zone.
Notably, while Brigette and Sara don't have EHML, that doesn't mean they only suffer its effects when Milo and Martin are around. Several incidents have involved Murphy's Law basically finding them, when they were nowhere near them. Cast Party shows this is true for… multiple people, but Brigette's archetectial work and Sara's date were still ruined by Murphy's Law, even though they started far apart in Toboggan of Love. (And its still Danville, Murphy's Law isn't the only weird stuff going on in town).
Diogee - Has no idea what Murphy's Law is probably. Just knows that if he helps Milo when he's in trouble he'll get praised! And maybe treats! (And told to go home).
Non-Murphys
Melissa - Melissa may not be a Murphy, but as the one non-Murphy ever invited to Murphy events (pre-Zack), she might as well be. In many way's she'd kind of the anti-Sara. Unlike Sara who was born into a cyclone of calamity that orbited her loved ones, Melissa saw it, and decided she wanted on the ride. And unlike Sara who lives with Milo, but has her own separate day to day, Melissa lives apart, but spends most of her day to day with him, due to being classmates. And it's probably fair to say that Melissa spends more time with Milo now that their both older (as opposed to Sara who probably spends less time with Milo). Sara and Melissa I think fit complementary niche's in Milo's support system.
Melissa has been exposed to Milo's EHML since she was very young. Melissa's a naturally fearless person, but I think being exposed to EHML at age 6 before she fully developed risk assessment probably helped. So while she probably fears death a bit more than Sara "called an ambulance multiple times by age 4" Murphy she's been along for so many of Milo's adventure's that she doesn't start to panic easily. Despite being with Milo all this time, she still doesn't get everything he does, as helping him finish a race is still an accomplishment.
Melissa is also a nerd. A huge nerd. Just a nerd. And her main area of curiosity is Murphy's law. She wasn't born into Murphy's law, so it wasn't something she intuitively understood like Milo and Sara. But she's passionate, and curious, and so when she saw Murphy's law, she was driven by curiosity to figure it out. This intellectual approach to Murphy's Law has lead her to being the most able to predict the otherwise unpredicable condition, and the most able to figure out how to weaponize it.
Amanda - Amanda has an amazing arc where she starts out fearing how Murphy's Law interferes with her schedule, to respecting how Milo can get things on track when the set up breaks, to turning into someone who has back up plans on back up plans. So turning from micromanaging in the sense of knowing what every moment is, to micromanaging in the sense that she always has a backup plan. It's like a challenge to her. Which if you think about it is not unlike Milo's backpack, as a preventative measure against Murphy's Law consequences. I can definitely see her fitting right in with the Murphy's as the one who plans gets togethers and keeps everything running smoothly despite the chaos.
Zack - I'd almost call Zack the Candace of MML. He's not the real main character, but I think he demonstrates some of the most growth in the show. Milo's grown up with EHML, he's experienced with it and has accepted it and knows how to manage it. And Melissa's grown up with him. This is all new to Zack so he's an audience surrogate, and gives an opportunity to show someone learning to accept EHML. He's an ordinary kid, whose putting in the effort to befriend the near unbefriendable, whose learning how to do the unusual. To brave through the scary parts of life. To learn how to deal with
Milo's life re-contextualizes Zack's life. It goes both ways of course, Zack brings more normalcy to Milo's life: Football games, birthday parties, and a band. But to Zack, Murphy's Law is a new way of experiencing life and a lifestyle that requires him to better himself.
Milo's other schoolmates - Most of Milo's classmates have grown p with him. They may not understand Murphy's law. But they know if you sit too close to him your asking for a broken bone. Some complain about it, most are friendly but will sit far away from him. And probably bring some PPE with them.
All of them have a bit more familiarity with it than the average person, and therefore are more capapable of dealing with the unexpected than the average person, even if it's nowhere near Milo's level.
Veronica - It's her skill with dealing with Murphy's Law: Preparedness, calmness in the face of danger, and being clever enough to use what she has on hand that made Milo who he is. She's just a babysitter absurdly competent enough to deal with it, but it sure shaped Milo.

Good to know! How about courting headcanons for Ace, Azul, Floyd and Rook? Something simple to ease you into writing for canon Twst, ehe. /lh Good luck with this and feel free to delete this request if it's not to your taste!
I’ve been thinking about expanding beyond just the Pet AU, so this was a very timely request. 😊 I also adjusted the format a bit to have a small scenario at the end, so it took me longer than normal to write it. I hope you enjoy it.
Courting Behaviors with Ace, Azul, Floyd and Rook
Romance comes differently to everyone. Some find it second nature while others struggle to get their feelings across. How does your sweetheart behave when he has his eye on you?
Ace is like the boy who pulls on a girl’s braids in school. He doesn’t know what to do with his feelings and it shows. He can’t leave you alone, teasing you constantly. You have his full attention, although you might wish you didn’t! Trey and Riddle definitely tell him to knock it off. He stops for a while, but he can’t quit for good. You are just too fun for him to tease.
He will start inviting you to spend all your time with him. It just feels natural to have you around! As much as you used to spend time at Heartslabyul, you are spending even more time there now. Study sessions, hang outs, tea parties; Ace just seems to always have a reason you should stop by. He might even bashfully invite you to come watch his basketball club practice. He is pretty good, you know. Why not come admire him see him play?
Under all that cocky attitude, you’ll find that Ace is oddly dependable. When you really need him, he always seems to come through for you. You’ll never forget the way he cut his winter break short to come to your rescue, even though he ended up begin too late. He also doesn’t make a big deal of small things like splitting his lunch with you when the meager allowance Crowley supplies runs low. He is just a standup guy, but don’t say it too loud; he has a reputation to keep!
On your birthday, you are feeling down. It really hits you at times like this that you can’t spend these days with your family and friends from back home. Ace notices you are feeling blue and arranges a surprise party at Ramshackle. He even sweet-talked Trey into backing some cupcakes for the occasion.
The party is going great. You can almost forget your situation when you are surrounded by your new friends like this. You finish speaking to Deuce when the table of cupcakes catch your eye. Trey has really done a fine job on them; the decorations are simple yet fun. The only thing better than the way Trey’s treats look is how they taste. You smile and go to grab one of the tempting sweets.
While contemplating the difficult decision of strawberry (a Heartslabyul specialty) or chocolate (a tried-and-true classic), a hand comes into your vision handing you a vanilla cupcake with a shiny cherry on top. “I’ve always been fond of cherry myself,” Ace says with a smirk. You give him a small smile; he has been pushing you lately but after today you suppose you can forgive him.
You unwrap the cupcake from its wrapper and lift it to take a bite. Suddenly, Ace grabs your hand and smashes the cupcake into your face. You sputter and squirm out from under his hand, spitting a mouthful of cream and cupcake out. “What the hell Ace! Can’t I even get a break on my Birthday?” you say. “Ah sorry, sorry.” Ace says. “It’s a bit of a habit. Here let me help you clean up.” He takes a finger and wipes some of the cake and cream from your check and licks it from his finger. He gives you his mischievous smirk and says softly, “My favorite flavor.”
Azul is too bashful to confess to you, so he goes with the secret admirer route. It starts small, with little gifts left on your chair or back at Ramshackle. Nothing too fancy but always something you needed, something that is useful to you. Each little package comes with a short note. “Good day prefect. Your pencil is almost down to the nub. I hope you’ll accept this humble offering to replace it.” At first, the notes aren’t even signed. You ask your friends about them, but no one claims to be the source of the helpful gifts. It’s an exciting mystery!
Soon there is an escalation to your secret admirer. Now he leaves full blown letters with the mystery gifts; each letter is signed “your secret admirer.” You feel as though you are really getting to know this mystery person through their writing, only you still don’t know who it could possibly be! For Azul, this is both exciting and extremely frustrating. He enjoys watching you from afar as you discover the little gifts and notes. He watches your face light up as you open each carefully crafted letter and read. The temptation to find out what you think about them is almost unbearable.
Scratch that, it is totally unbearable. He can’t resist trying to find out how you feel about the situation. The next time your “admirer” leaves a gift for you, Azul arranges to be casually walking by. “Why Prefect, what is that you have there?” he asks with a feigned innocence. Ace and Deuce have long since grown tired of hearing you talk about your admirer, so you are eager to tell Azul all about it. From then on, he becomes your confident. Each time you get a new letter from your admirer, you can’t wait to run and tell Azul about it. You both gossip about the gifts and speculate on just who this amazing admirer could be. Azul waits eagerly to hear every drop of praise you lavish unknowingly on his efforts.
This is only going to end if you realize Azul is your admirer and confess to him, which isn’t likely as you are rather oblivious to the situation. Until that time, Azul is just too comfortable having this second-hand romance with the safety of anonymity.
Your admirer has left you another note (how exciting!) inviting you to diner at Mostro Lounge. Is today finally the day you’ll meet your secret admirer? You can’t wait to tell Azul about this new development. It’s been such a breath of fresh air to have Azul to talk to about your mystery. If Ace gives you that look one more time when you bring up the letters, well…you don’t really know what you’d do but there is only so much eye-rolling that can be healthy for a person.
The lunchroom fills as you hurry over to a table occupied by the Octavinelle trio. “Azul, look! He wrote to me again!” An interested smile crosses Azul’s face as he asks you for details. From there, it is the usual song and dance; he asks you what is in the letter, how you feel about it and what you think might happen next. You are more than happy to gush out about it all; the diner plans, your hope and excitement and what you think the night might bring (a confession!?). Floyd gives you a look like, Shrimpy you can’t be serious, and Jade seems merely amused. Before you leave for your next class, Azul assures you that he will be on hand at the lounge tonight to make sure everything goes perfectly.
You arrive at the lounge exactly on time (Riddle would approve) and head to the host stand. Azul meets you there. He has been waiting for this moment, planning for this moment, practicing for this moment; this is his moment! He takes one look at you and freezes. His confidence visibly fades, and he attempts to speak but all that comes out is a meek mutter. “Azul, Azul…AZUL!” you shout to get his attention, “Is he here?” Azul’s nervous look reverts back into his business mask. “I’m so sorry prefect but I’m afraid this has arrived before you.” He reaches into his jacket and removes a letter (Plan B!) and places it in your hands. “He has left instructions by letter for your dinner tonight. Allow me to seat you in our best booth.”
Your hopes are crushed but you tell yourself that you are at least getting a free meal out of your secret admirer. “He left very explicit instructions. I assure you that he has chosen only the very best. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.” Azul reassures you. “And for what it’s worth…I’m sorry.” He says quietly before leaving to grab you a drink.
The whole night, Azul acts as your personal waiter. You are so appreciative that he is taking time out from managing the lounge to keep you company. By the end of the meal, you’ve even gotten your spunk back. Each time Azul brings you a new course chosen by your mystery admirer, you both gush over the choice and speculate about why they may have picked such an item.
At the end of the night, Azul walks you to the Octavinelle mirror; you tell him it’s not necessary, but he insists. He takes your hand before you go. “Prefect…I hope you had a good evening tonight, in spite of everything.” You smile back at him and give his hand a reassuring squeeze. “I did, thanks to you Azul. Who knows, maybe next time I’ll see my admirer in person!” Azul gives you a faraway look, “Yes. Maybe next time…”
One of the first indicators that Floyd is becoming interested in you is that he will start spending a lot more time with you. He is now your study buddy, hangout partner and personal bodyguard. Any time you need someone, Floyd just seems to be there.
As he falls deeper and deeper, he starts caring about your opinion more. If you ask him to do something, Floyd will actually listen to you. Can he stop teasing Riddle? He guesses he can play with Shrimpy instead. Stop goofing off and do his homework? If you wanted to help studying, you should have just said. Can he not squeeze that student too much? Well, he’ll have to explain it a bit to Azul, but he supposes he can let him off a bit easy. You have as much influence with Floyd as Jade now; and that is really saying something!
One of Floyd’s love languages is giving gifts. At first, he tries to give you expensive items like sneakers that match his own, but you tell him you are uncomfortable accepting something that expensive. After that, he sticks to things he finds himself. You get a small gift each time he takes a walk around campus or a visit to the beach. They are things like shells, interesting rocks and flowers; each small treasure makes you smile because you know he was thinking of you when he picked it up. You put them on a shelf in your room and Floyd smiles each time he visits you at Ramshackle and sees the carefully preserved collection.
Sometimes, when he is having a bad day, Floyd asks to lean his head on your shoulder. He just stays that way for a while, breathing deeply and staying uncharacteristically quietly. After a time, he stands and gives you a small sleepy smile before walking away. You aren’t sure what that is all about but if it helps Floyd with his famous moods, you are glad to do it.
Soon comes a time when you are the one having a bad day. Floyd notices you aren’t your usual self. “Hey Shrimpy, want to know what always makes me feel better?” he asks. “Sure Floyd, I’m willing to try anything at this point to make me forget Crowley’s latest stupid demand.”
He sits beside you and draws you towards him until your head is resting gently against his chest. You get flustered and try to ask him what he is doing but he only shushes you. “Quiet Shrimpy. Just listen.” You oblige him and sit quietly, silently willing the blood to stop rushing to your face. “What am I supposed to be listening for?” you ask him.
“When I feel rotten, I like to find someone I care about and listen to their heartbeat. Then you calm yourself down until your heartbeats match.” Floyd tells you in a serious voice. You recall all the times that Floyd has asked to lay on your shoulder and think about what that means. This is having the opposite effect of calming you down. Floyd senses your increasing heartrate and looks down at you. You meet his eyes silently. Now both your hearts are racing. You suppose this is also a way to match heartbeats.
Rook’s habit of being overly poetic and praiseful soars to new levels. He greets you each morning with a romance-novel-worthy line about love and/or beauty. If you are very observant, you might also notice he reserves certain pet names or beauty comparisons for you alone. It’s because you occupy such a unique place in his heart! Only your eyes could remind him of the wide eyes of his prey during a hunt; so clear and enrapturing.
You are as important to Rook as Vil and so he will begin helping you out in the same way he helps Vil. You’ll have a first-class stylist in Rook to advise you on your outfits and overall look. It’s strange the first time Rook tells you that you really should wear a scarf if you intend to pull off that blazer look but he is absolutely right. By listening to his frequent advice, you become more fashionable, healthy and overall beautiful. Rook gets to spend time with you giving advice and seeing your beauty advance to a new level; it’s a total win-win situation for him.
One of the best perks about having Rook’s interest is that he lets you see the campus through his eyes. His hunter’s instinct and eye for beauty have driven him to explore every nook and cranny of Night Raven College. He has seen and discovered many wondrous things that he now wishes to share with you. Things like where you can see the best sunsets and sunrises, the room where the stained glass creates lovely patterns on the wall in the afternoon or the path behind the colosseum where you can smell the wildflowers blooming. He is not only sharing these places with you but a part of himself by allowing you this insight into his thoughts.
One morning before classes, Rook Invites you to go on a sunrise walk. He takes you out along a nearly hidden path through the forest until you reach a clearing. In the clearing is a target. “Mon amour, I thought today I would share the thing I love most with the one I love most,” says Rook while holding one hand to his chest and the other gesturing artfully.
You sit on a log and watch Rook skillfully shoot his bow. His forearms strain has he holds the string back taunt, his steady gaze focused on the target. When he releases the arrow, his lips upturn just a small bit in satisfaction. A long history of practice lets him know he will be successful long before the arrow finds its mark.
After watching for a bit, you ask Rook if you can try your hand at it. He gives you a knowing smile and hands you the bow. You set an arrow and try to pull back the string, but you can’t even make it budge. You realize then the amount of strength Rook must have to use his bow. “Shall I assist you, mon amour?” Rook asks slyly.
Rook goes to your side and puts his arms around you. His hands rest right below yours on the bow and string as you hold the arrow in place. “Now pull,” he whispers in your ear. You do as he says and this time, with his assistance, you are able to draw the bow. You excitedly attempt to aim and release the arrow. It does not hit the target.
“Non, non, non,” chides Rook. “You are far too eager mon trésor. Focus.” Again, he positions himself behind you and helps you draw the bow. You attempt to focus as much as you can on the target and not on the way Rook’s breath feels on the back of your neck. A few deep breaths of your own and you release. This time your arrow does hit the target and you cry out in excitement. You hear Rook quietly say “perfect”; not in his normal joyful tone but in a quiet and serious one. When you turn to look at him, he isn’t looking at the target at all but deeply into your eyes.

I love the idea that Megatron has a totally different relationship with Rose compared to Maria. He's such a girl dad, yet he butts heads with Rose? Like, is Rose to Megatron what Baby Groot is the Drax?
Previous episode of the Peaceful Timeline
Megatron: You sit on a throne of lies, child.
Rose: You're just mad I beat you at Hnefatafl.
Listen, Megatron loves Rose. She's an...overall good kid. And it's nice to have someone else not look at him with fear. But he is convinced that all the anger and deceit and pettiness that should have been in Oshern got syphoned into that one!
Like he had no problems with Maria. He has a strong attachment to her because she's the first being in a long time to look at him without fear. Meanwhile, with Rose, he feels like she has it out for him. She will find a way to twist his arm to get what she wants!
Megatron: Rose, I need you to not say anything when it comes to stuff we're not supposed to do.
Rose: Depends on what I get in return.
Megatron: Are you serious?!
Rose: If I'm risking something for you, I need to be paid back.
Megatron: I don't know if I should be angry with you or proud. Fine, I will get you more of those fancy art supplies you've been asking for.
Rose: Are you going to steal it?
Megatron: Really?!
Rose: Papa (Oshern) runs an honest business practice. It's rude to steal.
Megatron: Fine! I will work it off! Just keep your mouth shut!
Their relationship is very uncle-niece vibes. Ymir and Oshern do notice the pettiness that starts between them and tries to stop it, but Optimus just asks them to let this happen.
Oshern: Why exactly are we letting them argue like this?
Optimus drinking some energon: Payback.
Oshern: What?!
Rose's relationship with everyone is also significantly different compared to Megatron. She relishes in the attention Ymir gives her through head pats and hugs and thinks her mom is beautiful. She admires her father and asks him about his work and his life before Ymir. She thinks he's a good cook too. She definitely sees Optimus as a mentor and asks about the knowledge of the universe and he's more than happy to oblige. Rose's relationship with Maria is fairly close despite the age difference. But it didn't start out that way.
Initially Maria started getting jealous of all the attention Rose was getting as a baby. She's always crying, doesn't move much, and everyone is fretting over her. It takes a little time for everyone to notice, but Megatron is the one who notices first. Maria explains how she feels and Megatron rather tactlessly says:
"Well of course she needs more attention. She's a baby, and babies are stupid."
"Megatron," Optimus scolded while Ymir slapped him in the arm.
Megatron then takes the baby from Oshern and holds her in front of Maria. Megatron explains relativity, calls the baby stupid, but there's no reaction. She can't even look Maria in the eye properly. She has no protective shell and the only thing she can do is cry.
"Your responsibility, as her sister, is to protect her, and be her guide," Megatron told Maria, "She will one day look to you for support, but you cannot resent her for something beyond her control."
Optimus reminds Maria that they still love her, and they are sorry for neglecting her and her needs. They end up making a schedule that allows them to spend more time with each other. But Maria ends up maturing and taking on a much more serious role in protecting Rose. They go on walks together, Maria teaches her stuff, etc. They still have their sibling spats and arguments, but when Rose questioned her own purpose in the universe. Maria gave her an honest answer: She didn't know. But she was happy that Rose was in her life none the less.
(When Maria ultimately goes on her journey with Megatron around the world, Rose definitely feels upset at the loss. Even though she has more space since they shared a room.)

👉👈 can you tell us more about the fnc angel/demon au? 🥺 pretty please?
oh CAN i? okay first things first. this is entirely because of good omens s2 and particularly uses concepts from episode 3 about "angels/demons who go along as best they can". also canon gillion and chip are very azi/crowley coded to me (cmon, gill's a literal paladin sent to the oversea to portend the rapture that he's now doubting the need for and chip is a mischievous little bastard with too much charisma and until recently no concrete stake in anything except for protecting his crew) so yeah. anyways the information will be delivered in bullet points for each person
CHIP
was an angel. a pretty young one, at that. possibly came to existence around the 3rd millennium of mana's society
pretty mischievous and self interested for an angel. lets just say he fucked around and found out, and for it he was kicked out of heaven and fell into hell, but managed to crawl out like the stubborn bastard he is
the form he fell and crawled back to earth in was a young human looking boy. involuntarily, of course. but he often struggled to change his form in the past, instead letting it be dictated by his emotional state (another fairly chaotic and unangelic thing to do), and right now he feels small, weak, and vulnerable
he's picked up by the black rose, and, desperate to belong, he goes along with their assumption that he's just a normal kid, too weak to use much power or even change his form. for the couple years he lives with the crew, he doesnt grow. (this is chalked up to malnourishment.)
unfortunately, now that he's a demon, he has an Energy. and that energy attracts things. in particular: bad shit, and other demons. niklaus takes notice of this crew claimed by a seemingly inexperienced demon and decides to sink it for fun and to see what chip will do.
chip washes ashore on another island with two thoughts: one, he doesnt think he's allowed to be attached to anything good anymore without poisoning it, and two, he needs to be scarier in order to not be fucked with.
so he spends ten years hanging around ruben price, a man who acts so comically, stereotypically evil that chip occasionally doubts how mortal he is, but it seems like price just Like That. a handy trick of being a demon now is that chip can Sense types of energy- positive, negative, etc. what's scariest about price is chip gets nothing off of him, which is why he's the perfect person to watch
things come to a head when price forces chip to kill a man. and, well, its kind of what he's supposed to do, as a demon- but he hates it. in particular, he hates not feeling in control, and it angers him enough that hes finally able to use some demonic power to set price's warehouse ablaze and disappear into the night. (his hands are now blackened from where they caught fire and he now has a tail, being so unused to using magic that using it burnt away his human form to reveal the true form beneath it. he cant really disguise them back to normal because, again, bad at form shifting)
he sets sail on the sea and lands on an island where he follows a particularly strong negative energy to a tavern where he meets...
JAY
girl who's family basically run the navy.
her older sister was just mysteriously murdered around a year and a half ago, and she's going through it
by which i mean, She's Pissed. she wants whoever killed her to be found and brought to justice, preferably with the business end of her own pistol, but her father (an admiral) has fucked off to gods-knows-where and there's not really any leads at home beyond being surrounded by what her sister left behind... she's getting desperate.
she's bartending at her mom's tavern one evening when a guy her age walks in but he's.. wrong. somehow. there's dozens of lanterns and candles in the room, and yet he seems to cast a long shadow behind him no matter where he turns. also his hands are dark claws. she's pretty sure he's a demon honestly.
she's getting desperate and she wants leads. his appearance makes her feel almost irrational in how suddenly she remembers she needs to find her sister's killer.
so, with some part of her screaming that she is being very, very stupid, she offers a deal. vengeance for her sister in exchange for her soul. the demon looks weirdly surprised at this and tells her that her soul won't be necessary, that he needs a crew on his ship and all she needs to do is travel with him. so she accepts, they shake hands, and jay tries to ignore how much her instincts are screaming this is a bad idea.
they set sail two days later on the demon's dingy little ship and begin sailing towards where jay thinks the next largest navy outpost is, and on the way they meet...
GILLION
gillion is an archangel. he's pretty young, all things considered. he's not sure when he came into being, but he's pretty sure he's a replacement for.... someone.
gillion has a destiny, that's for certain. the heavenly council has been training him since his creation for some kind of destiny, though he hasn't really thought to ask what it is. he's sure it's good, though. the heavenly order would never mislead him into committing morally reprehensible acts in the service of a greater cosmic good, right?
his "life" is pretty rigid though. all training, no play, and certainly no contact with the mortal realm, that is, until he follows some of his superiors on their way to bless some admiral of some mortal navy. except... this guy is evil. its written in his the fake smiles, his body language, the way he listens to them with greed in his eyes.
and gillion was destined to smite evil, so he attacks him.
heaven, of course, doesn't take kindly to this, but instead of kicking him from heaven outright, they propose a test of faith: be stripped of most of his divinity and fulfill his destiny within a year in the mortal realm. it's not like he has a choice, so they kick him down to mana with only his sword and a little bit of armor.
he falls into the sea, deep, deep into an undersea trench, where the first thing he sees are a couple tritons. and, yeah, tritons seem pretty cool. so with the last vestiges of whatever divine energy he carries, he becomes a triton and uses his wings (oh thank gods he still has his wings) to propel himself to the surface of the sea.
for a while, he floats adrift, taking in the feeling of being wet and having the sun burn his body where it rests above the waves and the taste of salt on his tongue and the dark spots in his eyes that appear every time he stares too long at the sun. but that's fine. it's.... nice. he can almost forget it's a punishment.
after a day of listless floating, Something appears on the horizon, and then grows closer. its large, and brown, and honestly kind of shabby looking. but it looks cozy, a bit more hospitable than the ocean, and he sends out a dozen silent prayers and thank-yous when the ship suddenly changes course and begins heading Directly for him.
a man pokes his head over the railing of the vehicle and asks if he's okay. his hair is a really pretty color. his eyes kind of remind him of the fires lit to burn sacrifices that he's seen humans make a couple times. a blackened, clawed hand reaches out to grab his, and when they touch, it the crackle in the air feels like the moments just before a smiting lightning strike. he feels forbidden. but gillion's beginning to appreciate the idea of a rebellious phase, so he grips him tightly and lets himself be pulled onboard.
ITEMS OF IMPORTANCE
chip knows what gillion is, gillion does not know what chip is. chip is completely fine with this and is deciding to use it to his advantage in order to do minor devilish activities
what follows is basically the same plot until episode 14, though chip leans a lot more heavily into trickery and temptation
when it's revealed What chip is, gillion is not only Pissed but afraid for jay's soul, convinced that chip has been traveling with her in order to prey and feed upon it. he and chip duel, and gillion wins, as good so often does against evil— but before gillion can smite him and send him back to whence he came, jay steps in and stops him long enough for chip to slip away below deck. she tells gillion she made a deal with him and he blatantly refused her soul, which is why she's travelling with him instead. gillion, now hopeful that he can redeem chip, lets it slide, but. has chip promise to cool it on the demon shit.
the reason why gillion couldn't sense chip being a demon for so long is because he, for some reason, doesn't feel fiendish to him. unfortunately, gillion is too stupid to further entertain this train of thought.
both gillion and chip regain power at the same rate, though their progress is accelerated whenever gillion feels they did something good, and when chip is feeling angry. (this will eventually change)
chip is very bad at being a demon, to the point where he's begun talking jay out of vengeance entirely because it makes him feel bad about making her worse. gillion, ironically, says she should hold herself to her principles and seek justice, in a comical subversion of the angel and devil on her shoulders. they have many an argument about this.
nobody knows chip is Fallen. its one of the main sources of his insecurities and hed rather not have gillion judge him harder, thank you very much.
when chip is offered to have a memory removed by blangus, he attempts to remove his memory of being an angel. this doesn't work, because the memory is a core part of What he is and forgetting that would unmake him. he decides to give up killing a man instead.
gillion's destiny is to bring the rapture. kind of a bummer! gillion's a little in denial about it and the longer he spends with humanity and witnesses their good and their bad and the hope they all carry within them, the more reluctant he is to fulfill his purpose. (it's fine. he has 6 more months to decide. its fine. it's fine. time goes painfully slow for mortals)
eventually the truth of chip's past is revealed, and gillion is Pissed, though not at chip. in hindsight, it's obvious that he was created to replace chip when he Fell, meaning if not him, chip would have been the one to end the world, and that thought sits worse for him than imagining himself doing the deed. perhaps when he gets back to heaven he will demand chip's status be reinstated.
chip is caught between encouraging him to forsake his destiny (he likes humanity, and he likes fucking with heaven's plans) and going along with his destiny to not get kicked out of heaven. falling is painful and awful and he cant imagine gillion playing any role other than good, and he doesn't want him to, because if you're not With heaven, you're a victim of the rapture, and he doesn't want that.
gillion is already halfway on his way to letting himself fall on purpose the more he spends time with jay and chip. he wants to be with chip as long as he can be but every time they touch gillion gets the feeling hes skating on thin ice.
jay is the safest pirate on the sea in terms of other demons and angelic presences trying to fuck with her, both gillion and chip have a deal to smite her father next time they see him.
in chips solo mission with price, he ended up sending him to hell instead of giving him the eye. it is not at all disconcerting that chip can do this
edyn is an angel who helped raise gillion and gave him an immortal soul as a pet. when he was sent to earth it manifested as a frogtopus, and after gillion was sent away edyn followed him to earth and settled down in allport to keep tabs on him through the navy
caspian is Lizzie's guardian angel
anyways theres more but thats the long and not-at-all short of it. hope you like!

(I’m not the anon who sent you hate about Mari!)
I really do mean this in the nicest way possible. This is not intended to insult or belittle you or your writing style at all. I just want to maybe help clear up what some people might find “problematic” about Mari (but the hate anon obviously did a poor job of voicing their complaints because it was very destructive criticism rather than constructive criticism).
I think the misconceptions about Mari stem from the fact that the majority of scenes in both Captain’s Log and Unwritten (I have read both many times) are just smut and lack a true emotional connection between Rex and Mari beyond being physical. That gives off the vibe that their relationship is only rooted in sex and that it’s the only saving grace of the relationship. Sex and love can be mutually exclusive. I understand wanting to write a sexually-liberated female character, because society severely represses women of their sexuality, but sometimes I feel like Rex and Mari are only together because of their physical attraction to one another. Additionally, there is major emphasis on Mari’s beauty from every single character (other than Rex): Shaeeah Lawquane, Omega, Wrecker, Gregor, Echo, Fives, Wolffe...the list goes on. None of her other personality traits are really complimented, just her looks. That might be problematic to some people because it fails to look at Mari as a whole person. Expanding on her intelligence, empathy, and fearlessness in both stories might help counterbalance her seductive nature while not discounting it.
Also, you reblog posts that include details about Rex and Mari’s relationship in the tags, and that’s the only tell about how Mari helps the clones. The audience doesn’t see that in the actual stories because there’s no explicit subplot that shows Mari helping Padmé in the Senate during the Clone Wars. So for those who only read the story, they wouldn’t know Mari’s political background with Padmé, other than an offhand mention of it.
Again, this is no hate toward you. I’m just trying to help elucidate the arguments against Mari. You’re an amazing writer and I admire you so much for your dedication and passion for your stories! I sincerely hope this doesn’t hurt your feelings because that isn’t what I intended at all. I’m open to hearing what your response to these claims, in case I missed something in both stories; you’re the expert!
I don’t even know what to say to any of this. Because despite literally every single thing I’ve put into this story, as much emotion as I can possibly put into the subject matter, I still have people saying and believing this.
Like first of all, Unwritten isn’t finished. I am only 3 chapters in. I have not gotten to explain any of the times she has done things and will do to help the clones politically socially etc. I literally haven’t written them yet.
Captain’s Log started as a reader, so a lot of the things I attribute to Mari weren’t initially in that story because it didn’t start out as being an OC story.
At the end of the day, I feel like I’ve put so many conversations and situations between the two of them that are so much bigger than just sexual stuff.
I’m just writing my stories the best way I can. To sit here and try this hard to dissect my characters and my story is incredibly hurtful. We’re all just here writing stories for fun on the internet. I feel like lately people on here are trying so hard to make me feel like I’m not allowed to do that.
I haven’t written or published anything in so long. I have had a miserable and extremely difficult year as it is which has made writing the stories I love basically impossible. I was really excited to try to get back to my stories. Receiving messages like this from you and others really doesn’t make me want to continue.
“I hope this doesn’t hurt your feelings” while simultaneously calling for me to somehow defend my response to these claims….like wow. Idk how anyone would take this any other way but to be really hurt by it.
So thanks for this. Really made me feel awesome.

opinions on blossutch,,, thoughts, headcanons, or maybe you hate it now idk.
This is going to be a long post because there are so, so, so, so many thoughts I have on Blossutch. I think about them, at least, once a day, to keep me sane.
Blossom has always been my favorite puff. There's something about A-Type characters and me, we just jam together. Butch, on the other hand, grew on me so freaking much when writing and expanding on what his character can be. He's a crackle of energy and lives in the moment and is kind of all over the place, but he just wants to make whatever he's doing fun for himself and those around him. The dude is observant and better at understanding people than you may think.
This is kind of where I like to find their balance. Butch brings a needed spontaneous nature into Blossom's by-the-books life. She helps him want to get organized, or at least, motivates him to figure shit out and have a direction to whatever he pleases. She thinks analytically, he thinks with emotions; they see both sides of things and learn together. Blossom, let's face it, is a perfectionist, it's her fatal flaw, but Butch is a person who's okay with failing and trying again. Seeing that from the person she admires dearly, eases her fears and it's what allows her to feel the most comfortable with Butch. Blossom is the one person who takes Butch seriously when no one has, and he's pretty sure she's the first person to ever turn to him for advice or acknowledge his intellect. He's loud and obnoxious and outgoing, he's absolutely ridiculous to be with, but he's also the person Blossom has laughed the hardest with and why she's more willing to put herself out there and open up to people. And with Blossom, Butch finds the beauty of what can be said in the silence.
As far as head canons:
Growing up, Blossom didn't think much of Butch other than twitchy ruff, and for Butch, she was girl Brick. They don't really interact beyond puff/ruff feuding and school bump-ins, until later in high school when they're assigned as lab partners and from it, a budding friendship into best friends that doesn't take a turn until their mid-twenties.
Blossom is the big spoon. Always.
They're the kind of couple whose favorite thing is just to be with each other. They could be waiting at the DMV for hours, or suffering from food poisoning, but if it's together, it was the best day. This also makes them the worst couple to invite places. Because if you invite one, you best believe the other will be there, and they kind of will do their own thing. This isn't a diss or intentional, it's just they have the most fun when with each other.
Shouldn't be surprising, but they are THAT couple when it comes to PDA. Butch is a touchy, puppy dog kind of a guy, and Blossom has come to understand and accept his need for physical touch. Besides, he's hot and she's allowed to make out with him whenever she so pleases.
They are terrible sleepers. Butch has too much energy to get more than two-three hours if he's lucky. Blossom, either overworks herself or her mind overthinks. This leads to them having a lot of late-night hang-outs/dates at the start of things, and when they do move in together, they find it a bit easier to sleep until an acceptable five to six hours.
They have the worst taste in media consumption. Their watchlist consists solely of whatever is ranked low on IMDb, and probably the reason that one shitty show you swear no one watches got renewed. The same goes for Blossom's choice in non-academic reading. Any of those terrible romantasy books you've heard about, she's torn through it with highlighted passages and colored sticky tabs on all the cringy dialogue/plot holes/questionable smut. She rants to Butch about them often, and sometimes, he'll quote something to see if she notices (primarily the spicy stuff). 97% of the time she catches it, and 3% of the time she's embarrassed a line worked on her.
Butch buys her flowers every other week just before the last bouquet is about to die.
Butch is and will always be ACAB, and he is strongly against any superhero organization. He gets Blossom and her sisters are genuinely trying to make a difference and help people, but superheroing sometimes involves collaborating with cops. Unless there's an attempt of assault or murder, Butch won't get involved even if it's happening right in front of them. This tends to be their biggest disagreement because Blossom understands his personal grievances and she agrees to a point with him, but she does wish he'd helped out when a robbery or monster attack derailed their date night.
Before they even got together, they were relationship people. Blossom's past ones were known to have at least a two-year minimum, and Butch had a hard time entertaining anything if he wasn't committed due to his quickness of boredom.
Blossom's humor is saltine-cracker dry and her jokes are often taken as rude because not a lot of people realize she's attempting a joke, they don't even think she's capable of telling one. But ask Butch, and he'll tell anyone willing to listen she's the funniest person he's ever met.
While I'm a color-crack shipper first, I do love other ships (brickercup, the blues, bubbles and/or boomer having a queer relationship with a normie), and I like to think of Blossutch as the constant. There has to be a time of wacky hijanks that lead to them and the others breaking into the multiverse later in life, and while their siblings are disgusted/perplexed by whoever is paired differently with them, Blossom and Butch are together in every alternative timeline they are shown.
Okay, okay. I think that's more than enough. Before I go, I wanted to say thank you for this ask. I've been putting off a Blossutch project I have planned for a summer release (hence why I think about them daily) and this definitely got the ol' brain working in the right direction. Hope this was something worth reading, lol.

Neon Genesis Evangelion 23
"Heads up, NERV, becuase the 16th Angel is going to bring you down! That's right, you may have defeated all those other Angels, but I'm even stronger than all of them put together! I'm like a laser rope or something, and I've got creepy powers that let me burrow under people's skin or whatever. Oh, and those big guns your Evas use? Big deal! Those don't work on me! Now, take your best shot, humans, because it's the only chance you're gonna... wait."
"Kid, are you okay? Uh... don't you want to shoot at me or something?"
"Ma'am, I think the red one's having some kind of problem, maybe you could send out... Ma'am? Hello?"
"Uh... maybe I should come back tomorrow? Is that okay? Yeah, we'll pick this up some other time. Uh... sorry about... whatever just happened. Yeesh."
So Asuka is doing... well, I wouldn't call it "okay", but she's playing video games all day and spending every night at her friends' house. I mean, there's probably worse ways to cope with everything she's been through.
The SEELE group is mad at Gendo Ikari for several reasons, but most recently he lost the Lance of Longius during the most recent Angel battle, and they seem to think it's extremely important to their future plans. Gendo argues that the top priority of NERV is to destroy the Angels, and the Lance was the only way to do that. But they don't see it that way. During this little conference, another Angel is sighted over Tokyo-3, so Gendo excuses himself to deal with that. Meanwhile, SEELE openly worries that Gendo will betray them soon.
Let me try to summarize what I know about these guys. They seem to have something called the "Dead Sea Scrolls", which apparently allows them to predict certain future events. It occurred to me today that the name "Dead Sea Scrolls" may be a reference to the site of Second Impact, since Admiral Clownshoes once compared the waters of post-Impact Antarcica as a literal "dead sea".
Anyway, the SEELE plan apparently is their agenda to guide humanity beyond the dangers predicted in the Dead Sea Scrolls. The NERV Agency is charged with executing that plan, and SEELE also seems to believe that the Lance of Longius is critical to their success. They also think there should be at least eight Eva Units active.
But Gendo Ikari can barely keep three Evas in the field at the same time, and he seems to think that the only one he absolutely needs is Unit 01. So SEELE is mad about the destruction of Units 03 and 04, and the Lance being chucked into outer space, but Gendo Ikari considers this acceptable losses.
SEELE's dilemma is that they don't like or trust Gendo, but they have no alternative but to let him run the show. He's the only one who can, and yet they seem adamant that they understand the situation better than he does. Recently, they tried to turn Admiral Clownshoes against Gendo, but nothing came of it, so now they need another pawn to use against him. This turns out to be Ritsuko Akagi, so seems to be a better choice, since she actually knows more about what's going on.
So with the 16th Angel headed their way, the only one ready to fight it is Rei in Unit 00. Shinji is set up in Unit 01, but Gendo doesn't want to use him because no one is sure what might happen after that latest incident where Unit 01 went berserk and ate an Angel. As for Unit 02, Asuka suits up one more time to pilot it, but her sync rating has declined to the point where she literally can't operate the Eva anymore. Gendo orders it launched for use as a decoy, but it can't even step off the elevator when it reaches the surface. This doesn't help Asuka's morale at all.
Anyway, I think that's a really cool screenshot of Rei up there. I don't know, she just looks really sharp.
The Angel goes right for Rei, who grab it, but her gun is ineffective, and the Angel sends some sort of creepy veins into her Eva, and then into her own body.
Like Shinji from before, she experiences some sort of vision of another being, which appears in her form. Once again, I can't tell if this is the Angel or her own Eva. It offers to merge with her, and she refuses.
She snaps out of it and realizes that she was the one crying over her loneliness, and not the other she encountered in her mind. I think the Angel's effect on her is supposed to be intensely painful, but Rei's so stoic and unexpressive that she just isn't letting on.
With no other options, Gendo deploys Shinji to assist, but Rei doesn't want to put him at risk, so she activates some sort of self-destruct on her Eva. She refuses to abandon the Eva, because she needs to stay with it to maintain its AT field. I'm not sure why the self-destruct would work, since Rei already shot the Angel at point-blank range with no effect, but it does destroy the target, so I guess she knows what she's doing.
Ritsuko leads a recovery mission and they find the entry plug from Unit 00, but there doesn't seem to be any evidence of survivors.
Afterward, Misato tries to comfort Shinji but he refuses any affection from her, as it his wont. Then Misato gets a phone call...
And Rei's alive! Suspiciously, she has all the same injuries she had when she debuted in Episode 1, but I don't know if that's supposed to mean anything. Shinji thanks Rei for sacrificing Unit 00 to save him from the Angel's powers, but she has no memory of doing that.
Shinji doesn't understand, and she replies that it's "probably because I'm the third one." Hoo-boy.
At her home, Rei... well, a Rei, I suppose... she finds that broken pair of glasses from the time Gendo rescued her from the entry plug. She had kept them as a momento of that day, but now Rei... this Rei... grips them tightly, as though trying to crush them. Then she stops, and starts crying, and she doesn't know why.
Rei's apparent survival does raise some awkward questions. Admiral Clownshoes warns that this might cause problems with SEELE, and Gendo says he's bypassed this by sending them "an alternative."
That is, apparently, Ritsuko, who has been brought before SEELE to answer their questions in Rei's place. This is sort of like when SEELE questioned Misato a while back, because they wanted to talk to Shinji, and Misato refused to allow it because of his poor mental state. Well, this time Ritsuko is standing in for Rei, probably because Gendo didn't want SEELE to learn more about Rei.
And for some reason, Ritsuko appears to be nude for this interview? I mean, she could be wearing some strapless dress or something. I don't know what the point of this is. Anyway, she acts cool about it until SEELE informs her that Gendo was the one who put her here on the hot seat in Rei's place.
Meanwhile, Misato finally opens that little capsule Kaji gave her the last time they had sex, and it contains a little microchip. His voice mail to her said that he had sent her the same information at least thirty-six ways, but he knew most of them wouldn't make it. Presumably, this was the one that got through. I had wondered why Misato hadn't bothered to follow up on Kaji's investigation of NERV's secrets, and it looks like she's been too busy grieving over him to get to this point. So it looks like she's finally ready. Maybe Rei's miraculous survival was what tipped the scales.
Later, Ritsuko calls Shinji and takes him down to the bowels of NERV headquarters, but Misato shows up to meet them and pulls a gun on Ritsuko. Misato wants to see the secret for herself, and Ritsuko agrees, if Shinji can come along. Misato's fine with that, so off they go.
She takes them to a room that looks a lot like Rei's apartment, and Ritsuko explains that Rei grew up in that room. Then she shows them a chamber full of failed Eva models, including the one Shinji's mom was working on when she died. Apparently Shinji doesn't remember that he saw her die, but Ritsuko tells him he was there when it happened.
Then she takes them to the room where Rei would soak in that tube full of Tang. As I thought, this is how they made the Dummy Plug, but it's more than just recording Rei's brain patterns.
All around the room is a big tank full of Reis. I kind of saw this coming, but still, this is pretty creepy.
What's extra creepy is how they all open their eyes and smile at Shinji when he says their name. Ritsuko explain what they are and what they're for, but I don't really get it. Let me just transcribe the subtitles:
"Right, this is the production factory. These are all dummies. They are also replacement parts for Rei. Man found God, and they tried to pick him up. For that Man was punished! That was fifteen years ago, and the God they found disappeared. Then Man tried to resurrect God with his own hands, and created Adam. From Adam, Man created what resembles God, Himself. That is Eva! We put supposedly mindless human souls in Eva. All the souls were salvaged souls. Rei is the only container that can hold the souls. The souls are born only in Rei. The Room of Guaf is empty. These are empty containers. They have no souls. So, I want to destroy them because I hate them."
Ritsuko triggers some sort of destruct mechanism that causes the Rei bodies to disintegrate. As they die (?), Ritsuko explains that she was willing to endure any humiliation for Gendo Ikari, but in the end, he would always prefer "these dolls" over her.
And she knew it would be this way, because she was there when her mother tried to win Gendo's heart, and ended up destroying herself because she couldn't win over Rei. I guess Ritsuko also had the hots for Gendo? She might be speaking in a more platonic sense, I don't know. The point is that all her years of loyal service to Gendo are meaningless, and he'll sell her out to protect Rei in a heartbeat.
That's what she realized in the SEELE conference, so I'm not clear on what exactly went on there. Did they punish her for the loss of Unit 00? Was that why Gendo sent her in Rei's place? Is that why Ritsuko was nude? In any event, Ritsuko's finally decided she's had enough, so she's turning on Gendo, at least as far as destroying all the spare Reis and showing Misato and Shinji all the super secret stuff.
The thing is, does that even matter? I mean, Gendo's no dummy. He probably betrayed Ritsuko this way knowing she would turn on him like this. For all we know, this is part of his plan. Maybe that's why Ritsuko starts crying, and why she pleads for Misato to kill her.
Misato declines to shoot Ritsuko, and considers that the tragedy of this whole project lies in its people, including herself.
So... yeah. NERV has been mass-producing Rei for years, and I think it's reasonable to assume Rei is at least partially based on Yui Ikari. I'm not sure that Gendo is like, in love with the clones or something. The Akagis may have been frustrated that he likes Rei more than them, but I think it's more of a situation where Gendo is too fixated on his work to love any woman, even a woman who helps him with his work. And the work is embodied by Rei so that's why he gets along so well with Rei. I guess.
The next episode looks forward to the final battle against the 17th Angel, which is supposed to be the last one, but apparently they still haven't finished Episode 24, since the preview is all rough sketches and animation layouts. I guess we'll see what we see...

On the subject of the Omake
//As you can see, there’s a great deal of information and opinions on the latest omake released by LINUJ
//And I have...opinions ^^;
//TA was kind enough to point my attention to the work of livelifelaughlovenikeiyomiuri, who did a rough translation of the entire thing, so I understand the context now:
https://www.tumblr.com/livelaughlovenikeiyomiuri/704618326731669504/so-i-ended-up-hyperfixating-on-the-new-post-linuj
//You can read it yourself, but the gist is as follows:
Iroha and Syobai both survived the aftermath of SDRA2 and are still on the run.
Iroha is NOT really the Queen of Despair. She and Syobai are putting up the façade to make money off of the Remnants of Despair.
The two of them faked their deaths using Iroha’s art talents to make fake bodies that look like them.
They’re still on the run from, presumably, the Kisaragi Foundation
//And you may wonder about my feelings on this Omake. Do I like?
//Honestly? No, I don’t. And for the exact reasons I listed above: basically nothing’s changed for them, they’re still in a bad situation and both of them are largely the same people. The narration even dismisses them as disgusting people.
//The most you can say is that we now know that Iroha hates Junko and the despairs, which...I mean, that’s good, but I think any rational person would.
//My problem with LINUJ’s writing is that he’s a fantastic creator, but he’s not a good storyteller. His characters aren’t allowed to develop most of the time, and when they do, it’s either for the worst or they die when they show any kind of positive growth.
//I’ve made my overall loathing for Chapter 3 clear, but this Omake really is a microcosm of the problems with his writing style as a whole: what’s the purpose of this story? What are we supposed to learn from this? Is it a joke? Is it setting up for something? Is it just to remind us that Iroha and Syobai are terrible people?
//That’s the thing too. TA put it best when they said that LINUJ makes all these characters, but he doesn’t treat them with the respect they deserve. They’re either stagnant, left to get worse over time or die. And when it comes to morally ambiguous characters, he feels the need to spell out that they’re bad people and that we shouldn’t sympathize with them. No room for debate or discussion, they’re just dismissed as bad people.
//The only exceptions I can think of are Rei, who at least managed to develop for the better and escape death, and Yuki, but we don’t know what it’s like for him after SDRA2. We don’t have any sense of his personality, just that he showed up to save Syobai and Iroha, and then peaced out seemingly forever.
//Am I old-fashioned for thinking this? Because I prefer stories that have character growth and development, where people at least make efforts to try and be better. Not that I can’t enjoy stories that involve enshittening characters, like Death Note or Breaking Bad.
//The difference is that there’s still a degree of change, of transformation, and still positive qualities to people like Light Yagami and Walter White. I can believe that Walt, while he becomes a vicious drug lord, still would never willingly harm his family. Light has an admirable goal, even if it’s clear he’s doing it for his own ego more than anything.
//That’s not the case with Iroha or Syobai. They’re not better, they’re not worse, they just...are. They’re the exact same kind of people they were at the end of SDRA2, and we just have a little more info on what they’ve been doing. No sense of progression beyond their locations and occupations.
//LINUJ has gone on record as saying that he has differing views on character from most people, that he feels that it’s hard for people to change their inherent natures. I can honestly see that from Syobai’s monologue in Chapter 4, where he goes on about how he doesn’t feel like people ever really change.
//This is, of course, total nonsense. Change is a part of life, but I’ll avoid going on a long rant about my views and stick to the world of storytelling.
//I accept that’s his view on people, but then I must ask, what’s the point of telling stories then? A static main character almost feels worse than a character descending into villainy, because there’s nothing to talk about. There’s no object lessons to glean, there’s no drama, there’s no messages, there’s no aesop, there’s no relationships to see unfold.
//If you’re not going to have characters or setting change, if there’s not going to be any kind of progression in anything, I have to ask what the purpose of your story is supposed to be. I don’t like stories that ultimately feel like a waste of time, and it hurts me because I DO like the Another series. I just don’t like the way LINUJ has written it.
//Honestly, now I’m dreading the other Omakes if this is the sort of writing we can expect. All I ask for is that we get SOME sense of progression for Yoruko or Nikei. ANYTHING AT ALL. It would be nice to see.
