If Gulus Gammamon had been forced to play the role of Gammamon for an extended period, would he have been able to maintain the act, or would he have snapped and started behaving the way that he wanted to? "Big bro, I'm not a baby, I have to learn how to talk like an adult."
"Ruli, you don't need to worry about this mystery, let's go back and Hiro can make dinner."
"Jellymon, are you SURE you want to do that?"
"Hi, I'm Gammamon! Put down my big bro RIGHT. NOW."
"Shut up. Just shut up. That's not how anything works you moron! Humans don't have an off switch! They're just dead! You killed them! And no amount of voltage is going to 'turn them back on'!"
"Okay, problem solved! She went away, don't worry about it. Let's go home, big bro."
"Why. Are we. Here. I know what Ruli said, but why are we here?!"
"Oh fuck this. Hiro, I'm actually Gulus, you're coming with me."
Okay, normally I don't care whats canon in the name of a good scenario or AU or story in general but let's canonically poke a hole in this idea for a hot minute:
Tumblr media
BITCH COULDN'T HOLD THE RUSE FOR FIVE DAMN MINUTES BEFORE HE WAS FOUND OUT!!
I think as a fandom we all agree that Hiro fucked up during the Betsumon incident, but in complete fairness that was Betsumon's specific schtick. It wasn't like there was two Gammamon and Hiro picked wrong. Betsu appeared as Gamma and Gamma appeared as some unknown digimon and it took seeing "Gammamon" getting completely out-eaten by another mon to break the illusion. Gulu's Schtick is kill and eat. He is not an actor. He had ONE job in an attempt at staying the dominant personality and that was stall Hiro by like.. a minute and he fucked up immediately not once but 3 times in the same conversation. If he had just fucked up the once and not again Hiro MIGHT have believed it was Gamma but he fucked up two more times in the same 15 seconds. Do you think there is any way shape or form that if Gulus was put in the position to control the body for any longer than 5 seconds that Hiro wouldn't notice something amiss before sundown?
Gulus would either have to pretend a digimon stole his voice and keep his piehole shut or Hiro would have to be put in a coma while Gulus struggles to keep him alive and keep Ruli and Kiyoshiro from finding out about it in order to not get outed too quickly.

💎💎💎 you can pick whoever you want out of my ocs! only if you want to tho no pressure <3
Of course I want!! I chose Oleander because Sparrow's view of him would be the most interesting I think.
--
Sparrow goes still. "Oleander is...strange. Dangerous. His views of the world should be respected, but..." She drifts off, turning silent in thought as she deliberates her words. When she speaks again, her voice is nearly inaudible. "There are times when it's hard to even understand what the sense of wrongness about him comes from. He can be kind; kinder than most, even. There is something deeply appealing about the kind of love he promises...all-encompassing, never-ending...but the rot underneath cannot be ignored. It should not be. Not all loves are healthy. And it is better to not have love at all when that is what is offered, surely."
Abruptly, she clears her throat and straightens in her chair. "I cannot deny I see why people are drawn to him. But I would recommend anyone interacting with him do so with caution."

[CLICK FOR BETTER QUALITY!!!]
(Likes and Reblogs are appreciated!!)
Soooo I was sucked into Poppy Playtime again because of these goobers!! I don’t think I’ve ever posted Poppy Playtime stuff on here before, buttt I think I will now, I just wish the fandom was a bit bigger and more lively lmao 🤣
Catnap is my #1 favorite, then DogDay, then KC, and then Hoppy! I love the others too, but Bubba and Crafty are so hard to draw atm. I just need to practice more with them!😓
{Colorless Lines Below!!}
Headcannons for them below too!!!
Tumblr media
———————
Some headcannons in the show universe cause I’m feeling fun:
- Catnap is the youngest! DogDay is the oldest of the crew! Their age order goes (oldest to youngest) DogDay, Bubba, Picky, Kickin, Crafty, Bobby, Hoppy, Catnap!
- Catnap doesn’t talk much, but he can. Just with a low voice that tends to be calming, and very sweet sounding. He usually just points, says short answers like yes or no, and nods.
- While Kickin (or KC) is the most egocentric and confident, Hoppy is the most energetic and tends to like talking people’s heads off, which causes them to butt heads at times, all while Picky tends to be the usual third wheel, often just quietly eating.
- Crafty is the most creative while Bubba is the most thoughtful and intelligent, which usually allows them to have deep, meaningful conversations of the wonders of life together.
-Crafty is the shyest out of the bunch, usually drawing with Catnap calmly, sharing her creations with him or hanging out with Bubba.
- Bobby and Picky tend to share their love for the world together, usually playing dress up with each other, talking about crushes. or cooking of course! Bobby always has something lovely to share and Picky, in contrast to her name, always is open to trying something new, as long as she thinks she may like it.
- In contrast to the canon, all of the crew just magically woke up in the Playcare, with no memories of before they opened their eyes to the colorful world around them. DogDay and Bubba were the first to appear, Picky, Crafty and Kickin spawning after, Bobby and Hoppy spawning together and Catnap spawning alone. There seems to be no way out, so the crew just embraces their situation and tries their best to not think about it too much.
- Catnap was the last and most unexpected to spawn in. From the time he opened his eyes to the new world around him, he had felt like something was off, like he didn’t belong there. While most of the others treated him nice, some of the crew were uneasy about his sudden appearance, seemingly years after the last of the previous arrivals had spawned in.
- Catnap begins to grow close to DogDay, almost becoming like his little brother. They spend the most time together, due to DDs kindness and warm welcoming energy towards him on his arrival! Also them both noticing they wore opposite necklaces, Cat being the moon and DD being the sun helped with that connection too!
- Kickin doesn’t really like or trust Catnap much, and doesn’t try to hide it, making snarky remarks and comments to clearly express his dislike for him.
- Catnap is super playful with the others, his best friends being Dog Day, Hoppy and Crafty! He tends to move like a ghost, the crew not usually noticing they are in his presence until they turn around! A lot of times, he hangs by his tail on the trees to say hello, or can be found in the fields laying in the grass and sleeping.
- Cat can sleep anywhere that is a surface, and is not wet.
- Every once and while, Cat swears he can see a skinny, metallic hand in the shadows, beckoning his attention. He’s tried to bring it up to the others, but they either think he’s acting weird, insane, or tell him not to worry about it.
———————
If you want to hear more, my asks are open!!! And I will be drawing them inbetween my Absolutely Chapters for Murder Drones, which I am STILL working on and Chapter 4 is coming out soon!! Promise, I didn’t forget, things have just been busy!!
ALSOOOOO New Murder Drones Comic for King Solver N coming this weekend 👀👀👀 Perhaps some angst or something fun?

Umm.. so I think I know what needs to be done in order to bring Solar back properly.. but I think that no one will like the answer..
Exactly just like Dark Sun said.. so.. uhh.. anyway, probably many people are scared that Eclipse will have to sacrifice himself to be able to bring Solar back.. but I doubt that's the case here..
And believe me I wouldn't want Eclipse to sacrifice himself.. but don't you find it a bit odd that Eclipse wouldn't like to sacrifice himself.. I mean we all know that Eclipse has it rough and has mental issues and is most definitely suicidal.. and we know that he's tired of living.. so I think that if he had a chance to give up his life I think that he would do that..
It's not that I don't think that Eclipse doesn't want to live and finally have some good relationships with others or at least Earth for now and maybe be able to become a part of a family.. but I don't doubt that Eclipse sees how much everyone loves Solar and hates him and I bet that Eclipse believes that he won't be accepted by others so what's the point of living?
Now he has a goal - to bring Solar back and he's basically living for this goal because Eclipse doesn't have any purpose in his life outside of what others are telling him to do.. It's really sad but my point is that I think that Eclipse wouldn't be upset (in a sense of what Dark Sun said) if he had to sacrifice himself for Solar..
I think that to safely bring Solar back they need to sacrifice someone indeed.. but it can't be anyone other than Sun..
What's funny is that I was actually thinking about it.. about how Solar was created and I realized that Solar's Sun basically sacrificed himself for Solar to be able to live..
You probably know whre I'm going with this at this point.. yeah.. in order to bring Solar back properly they need to do something similar to his origin in his dimension.. which means sacrificing Sun..
And there's also another thing that is worth pointing out.. and it's the fact that Sun sacrificing himself to bring Solar back would be a parallel to how Old Moon sacrificed himself for KC to live..
And it also would put Moon to a test.. cause remember how Moon said that he'll do anything to bring Solar back? Well.. what if he had to sacrifice his own brother?
That sounds like something Moon wouldn't do, right? And I think that this is where the plot of Sun's death will come into play..
I think that something like that may happen: Moon is budy with doing what he's doing now with Puppet and all that stuff in order to bring Solar back and we know that creator wants Lunar in exchange for helping them bring Solar back.. so I think that when others will be busy with all of this happening Sun will be left aside once again..
And from Sun's second therapy episode we know that Sun is ready to help in any way to be useful.. and because he's suicidal I think that he wouldn't mind being hurt if that means he'll help others.. so I can totally see Sun agreeing to sacrifice himself to bring Solar back..
But here's the thing.. Dark Sun said that Eclipse won't like the answer.. so if I'm right about Eclipse actually caring for Sun.. he definitely wouldn't want Sun to sacrifice himself..
I'm still thinking about what might happen but that's it for now..
And at last.. I think that maybe Moon will talk with Old Moon on the day Old Moon died? I think that would be neat :)
Oh, I forgot.. I think that Dark Sun either wants to use Eclipse for some evil scheme.. or he'll try to prevent bad things from happening using Eclipse as a pawn.. but we shall see..

W Two Worlds is a rare drama that is even better on rewatch because now you know where it's going, you catch so much additional stuff.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Knowing YJ is the original creator of Kang Chul doesn't just answer the question of how she can be transported into that world but turns the narrative, as I mentioned, into a fight between two creators (YJ and Dad) about the direction of the story.
And in a way, it has a lot to say about fandoms and creators' interactions with it and attitudes in general - it is not insignificant that it's the middle-aged man who wants this story to be all bleak existential despair and end in "there is no meaning" and it's coooool for there to be an unexpected ending even if said ending makes no narrative sense - he wants to go art house!!!! And it's a young woman who wants this to be a story about justice triumphant and love found and hope and happy ending.
It's very much reflecting reality where the latter is often looked down on as inferior (and resented for being more popular) and just "nonsense young women like" (think of the degree of vitriol at worst and contemptuous disdain at best genres and works and things hugely popular with women get.)
And how much do I love that it's the young woman's vision that ultimately triumphs? Heck, one can view YJ as a self-insert/Mary Sue character and the fact that she ends up with the protagonist she created is honestly such a delightful nod to so many fandom things - and also that is perhaps why she triumphs. Because she loves the character she created, not resents him the way Dad does, and an author who loves the character (and by that I mean enjoys that world, that story, the characters - not necessarily like YJ fancies them) will always win over one for whom the act of creation is a resentful chore with no joy. (Side note - by choosing to live on that bridge, KC actually did a good deed for the Dad too - Dad himself admits this gave him hope in a really dark time; maybe that is why W universe rebels when he tries to kill KC - because repaying that with death is unjust.)
Also, as @aysekira and I talked about, it's really a religious parable too - because Kang Chul's mortal sins, sins his creator thinks he should die for are disobedience (ever since that moment on the bridge, he goes his own way more than once) and self-awareness - think of the expulsion from Paradise in the Book of Genesis - the sins worthy of that weren't murder or maiming or anything in modern society viewed as horrible but disobedience and desire to know things. You don't listen to God is n1 sin in that world and so it is in the world of W. The God of Genesis would probably experience some degree of sympathy for the Dad and his decision.
Ultimately, how much do I love this drama? It's a take on creative process, death of the author, and relationships with media we consume. It's a religious parable about free will and a discussion of parental relationships. And it's also a damn good story with chases and make-outs. It's basically a perfect rebuke to Dad's belief that a story cannot be deep unless it's dreary. W has so many interesting things to say but it's also a mad amount of fun!

So I have decided to essentially just write out what ideas have come to me for my Reaper Killcode, he's got his own little AU now that I will just call the Reaper King AU 💀 I will warn this is a looong one. Though I will answer questions about this just like with Seraphim AU🔥 if anyone's interested:)
I will write more out later as I sadly have some other stuff to get too atm... 😅
TW: Definitely going to be touching on some darker topics here, particularly murder and abusive situations so you've been warned.
Part 1...
1) Reaper Killcode is created by Ruin from the wreckage of Solars Moon, as his Killcode was active and could be salvaged from the remains.
2) However upon his activation and coming to consciousness... He pretty much disregarded Ruin immediately. Moving forward only to appease his bloodthirsty coding.
-Ruin did not like being disrespected, but he couldn't deny that Killcode was undoubtedly going to create havoc as intended... Although he still voiced his annoyance to the dust bunnies later...
3) Killcode went on a slaughter that would shame even Bloodmoon and eventually he finds his way to Stitchwraith... And it ends badly for Stitchy. As going up against Bloodmoon was one thing, but KC is a very different beast. And Stitchwraith gets murked... Rather gruesomely at that.
-The scythe Ruin gave him broke during the fight, he later customizes it to function in smaller form, more like Deaths scythes from Puss in Boots.
4) Upon killing Stitchwraith, Killcode takes the core from his body and incorporates it into his body. Strictly for cosmetic purposes, as he is unaware of the cores importance or nature.
5) Conveniently at that moment Bloodmoon broke into Stitchwraiths new lair looking for payback... Only to find a twisted heap of metal and his resurrected former father figure. To which he even kinda fell on his ass in surprise before screaming 'Father?! You came back from the grave?!'
6) That made Reaper KC pause... Being called a father genuinely made him stop and it stirred something in him. Something he didn't understand... But it wasn't unpleasant.
7) Long story made short, KC takes Bloodmoon under his wing and they leave together to go create chaos and havoc.
8) Killcode grows to genuinely care and is protective of Bloodmoon. While the Bloodtwins are more on the wary side of their new 'father' as they are far to used to being tricked into being someone else's tool... let alone how things ended with the previous KC.
9) As time goes by Killcode develops a set of morals that grow to govern how he kills his victims and he sets out three 'Laws' that both he and Bloodmoon must abide by.
-Never kill children
-Never kill anyone truly incapable of fighting back
-Never kill anyone you are indebted too
10) Naturally Bloodmoon HATES any kind of rules. But... The fact these are not just rules for Bloody, but he's giving himself these rules as well makes it slightly more tolerable. And again, Bloodmoon can TELL how powerful this KC is and how they still need to play things safe...
11) Ruin eventually starts to antagonize Killcode with electric shocks, similar to the system he built into the twins. This gets KC seething mad and he and Bloodmoon come storming back to the Pizzaplex Daycare looking to kill Ruin, but he will happily start killing anyone in his path so... Bad times are about to be had.
12) However luck is on the side of the Celestial family and they manage to knock Reaper Killcode and Bloodmoon into the portal and send them into a random different universe. Not only (Hopefully) ending the threat of the murderous duo, but also getting the core far away from the Creators grasp.
-Boy was the Creator miffed at that...
13) Deposited in a random new universe with seemingly no way to return home, the first thing Killcode knows that they need to do is to assess exactly where they currently are and what they will do next.
14) Turns out they were teleported into the middle of a National Forest/Park in another universe. It's a large mountainus region with a few different hiking trails and camping areas. There are also old mine tunnels and caverns particularly within the largest mountain in the very heart of this region.
15) There are also several small towns in the vicinity of this park, between this and the plentiful amount of tourists and park staff it was only natural that Killcode and Bloodmoon choose this location to be their new home.
-They set up their actual home in one of the most spacious caverns inside the mountain and furnish it with a few items that they can scavenge.
16) What is also interesting is that this region is also home to a unique breed of wolves that can only be found here. Called 'Moon Wolves' due to the unique patterns within their fur. The breed is marked 'Critically Endangered' due to immense poaching and overhunting. Killcode grows very fond of these wolves and essentially tames the pack. Especially one of the larger wolves, which he names Muerte.
-They're his dogs...
17) At first Bloodmoon isn't too fond of this. As he's definitely not fond of animals he can't kill. But that changes as he sees this one of the smaller wolves that bears a unique, yet ugly deformity... Essentially having two heads...
-That one becomes Bloodmoons puppy...

Tumblr media
(That's how he's supposed to look like in December 1994 apparently, at least that's what I saw...)
“Babe, I love you so I want you to know That I'm gonna miss your love The minute you walk out that door
So please don't go Don't go Don't go away Please don't go Don't go I'm begging you to stay
If you leave, at least in my lifetime I've had one dream come true I was blessed to be loved By someone as wonderful as you
So please don't go Don't go Don't go away Please don't go Don't go I'm begging you to stay».
December 1994:
It felt weird and unpleasant. Being on tour with Oasis and barely speaking to Noel seemed unseemly and unacceptable. I felt like a freeloader. I was travelling with them for free in exchange for my help, and yet, the only thing I wanted was to go home. No matter how much the other guys reassured me, I still felt out of place.
It had been two long months since things weren’t the same. Noel was letting me sleep in the hotel rooms and was going to sleep with one of the guys. The beds felt empty without him by my side. But my heart was full. Full of sadness. I was crying every damn night. It was tearing me apart. Breaking me. And I knew that once Oasis would have their Manchester gig, everything would be over. I would go to live at my parents house for a few, find myself a job again, never see Noel ever again, and try to forget him. Oh, but I would have to see him again, because my belongings were at his apartment, and soon, he would move to London. That was the detail that caused my heart to even break more.
The thing I didn’t know was that he already moved to London when we were on tour. He’d hired removal men who’d taken all his stuff to his new apartment. His things, as well as mine. I was now a Londoner and Liam was the one who told me, because Noel wasn’t saying anything to me anymore.
You wouldn’t believe it, but the situation hurt me more than what I lived with Kenneth.
And knowing I had nowhere else to go to when in London, I was forced to stay at Noel’s apartment.
December 13th-14th 1994- London
This night, Oasis were playing Hammersmith.
After the gig, Liam wanted us to have an afterparty in a pub but Noel proposed the guys to have the afterparty at his place for a sort of house-warming party.
So we went to buy drinks and some stuff to eat too and arrived at the apartment. It wasn’t little but wasn’t huge either, and again there was only one bedroom and one bed. But there were two keys, mine and Noel’s. Maybe the move had happened before we argued, and that now, he didn’t want me there anymore.
And anyway, I had to leave.
After quite a party at Noel’s place, the guys stood the night, sleeping on the ground with covers.
At about 5am, when the sun was starting to rise, I woke up, trying to be as discrete as possible. I started collecting my belongings and my box, and silently took them at the main door. Then I heard a familiar voice, and felt a familiar silhouette stand behind me.
What are ye doing? He asked
I turned around and looked at him.
Oh, so you’re talking to me now?
I could say the say thing. Now please, answer me question. He answered, dryly
Well I think you’re not blind, I’m collecting my stuff. I’m leaving. I’m going back in Town.
Silence settled in for a few seconds, and I heard him sigh and his breath was shaking.
I don’t want ye to go. He said, his voice trembling
I looked at him and saw he was on the verge of tears.
I have to. It will be better for us. I can’t live like this Noel. I said my voice trembling as well
Tears invaded my eyes.
Live like what? He asked
I can’t stay with a man who doesn’t love me anymore, when I do. I should have known earlier. I can’t live with a broken heart. It would kill me. If I can’t have you, it’s better if I leave, because it would kill me to see you with someone else too.
Wait Y/N, I…
My dad bought me a train ticket, I’m leaving in an hour so I should better get going.
Will ye listen to me ?
No. I know you’re going to apologize for something you’re not responsible for. And it would break my heart even more. I can’t force you to love me Noel.
I took my box, my bag and my suitcase, ready to go.
Come on, please Y/N…
Farewell Noel.
And I left, under the rain. I sobbed hard. Love could hurt badly. Love only punches the heart.
By the afternoon, I was at my parents place, asking for affection and reassurance like a damn child, which they did give me, without asking any questions. And at the moment I was about to cry again, I heard meowing.
Ringo ?!
*
December 18th 1994- Manchester
The only thing I was doing during my days was looking for a job. But each evening and night, I was in my old bedroom, listening to the radio and reading to empty my mind.
Empty my mind because Noel was in my head. And because Oasis were playing Manchester this evening and I didn’t go.
At about midnight, the radio started playing an old K.C and the sunshine band song: Please don’t go. And each time the singer was repeating the chorus, it reminded me of Noel’s words. “I don’t want ye to go”.
So I started crying again. Shit. Everything reminded me of him. And I cried myself to sleep.
At 1:30 am, I heard someone throw rocks at my window. I immediately knew it was him. Because he was the only one doing this. I walked to it and opened it, receiving a rock in the eye, again.
Ouch! Seriously, you still can’t aim!
Fuck, I’m so soz Y/N.
What the fuck do you want?
Can I climb?
Why?
Please it’s fucking freezing out there! And I need to talk to ye.
I hesitated.
Okay, come on, but don’t break your neck!
Noel climbed at my window, entering my bedroom. Just like he did when we were younger.
Hi! He said with a smile
What do you want? I asked softly
Well ye left like this and ye didn’t even listen to what I had to say.
Noel…
Those aren’t fucking apologies Y/N. Please, let me talk.
I sighed, already sad about what I was about to hear.
Okay…
I sat on my bed
I want us to talk about what ye said in September.
I knew it… Listen, I said anything I had to say Noel.
I know but… I didn’t see anything. And I feel like shite for not doing so.
Feels like you’re going to apologize…
Would ye like to?
No. I was really explicit about it though.
I know. I didn’t know how to fucking react. I kinda… panicked.
I chuckled.
And why so?
Because I never stopped loving ye either. But I was fucking scared ye would break me heart again. And I can’t let ye do that. Ye don’t know how it fucking broke me. I wouldn’t survive if it happened another time.
Now I was the one feeling like shit.
Oh Noely, I’m so…
Don’t. It wasn’t yer fault, it was mine. I’m not trying to excuse meself fer what I did, but I think music was and is such a part of me life, that I had to run away from me responsibilities like the coward I  fucking am and focus on what would never leave me. And I figured and didn’t know at the same time that it meant losing ye. I kinda made an unconscious choice in a way. Ye were right. I stopped calling when I should have. Yer… Yer the best thing that ever happened to me Y/N.
And suddenly, he broke down. He was sobbing hard. I never saw Noel cry like this before. Often on the edge of tears, but not like this.
I was used to “hard” and “strong” Noel, who was never showing his emotions apart in studio when singing and playing his songs. Where he was letting his emotions loose. Because deep down, the real Noel was kinda and almost like the little boy I met, something innocent and pure. But when he would be done playing, he would call you a twat.
 I loved both sides. But I loved the real Noel even more.
He sat on my bed next to me, hiding his face, so I wouldn’t see him cry.
I sat beside him, taking him in my arms.
The best thing that has ever happened to you, huh?
Yea… He answered sniffing
After Oasis?
He chuckled
Mmmh, let me guess… yes?
You bastard! I laughed
He chuckled again
Of course not. Ye’ve always been before Oasis. Before owt else.
So stop crying your heart out handsome.
He lift his head up and looked at me.
Is there any chance?
I don’t know, actions have always spoken louder than words.
I knew he understood the assignement. Because his face slowly approached mine, our eyes closed, and his lips finally touched mine, kissing them tenderly.
He let out a low moan at the feeling, as if it was the best thing in the world. His tongue asked for entrance, and I let him, the kiss becoming heated, before stopping to say:
And I’m definitely stealing the “stop crying your heart out” from ye. What a fucking title fer a song.
Y/N, your muse, at your service. I answered
Fuck yes ye are!
And he started kissing me again, this time passionately, taking our breaths away. A pool started to from in my undies. I wanted him, I needed him. I started unbuttoning his shirt at the same time.
Are ye sure? he asked me
I’ve never been so sure of my life. I answered
So he let me finish what I started, while by his side, he started peppering my neck with kisses, causing me to shiver. I missed this feeling.
I took off his shirt, letting my hands wander on his torso and his back and caressed them.
Fuck, I missed yer touch… He said
I didn’t answer and kissed him instead. I felt his hands untie my dressing gown, uncovering my breasts. He then took it off me, leaving me naked from the top.
Ye’re even more beautiful than I remember…
Oh stop it.
He chuckled
I quickly unbuckled his belt and unbutonned his jeans. He stood up and took them off. He laid me down before hovering me and kissing me again. We were eager and we couldn’t stop. I felt his hand tug at my undies. I looked at him, smiling.
What are you waiting for ? I asked
He smirked and slid them off before sliding his boxers too.
I wrapped my legs around him to feel him against my skin again. He whimpered when I did so and caressed my cheeks. He started dry humping me, his look plunged into mine. And I could see it: the flame, the same one I saw on the last day of 1983, when he said he was in love with me for the first time. Some things don’t change. Here it was a mix of love and lust.
I caressed his body, his back, his buttocks, already being almost out of breath because the feeling of our reunion was a bit overwhelming. And I could feel it did the same thing to Noel.
Eventually, I was so wet I felt him enter me without warning from dry humping me, causing me to gasp. It hurt and felt good at the same time. It had been a long time I didn’t do anything.
Fuck, ye’re so tight… Are ye okay?
Yeah, you can move already. God, I’ve been waiting for this moment for so long…
Me too.
He started thrusting in me, slowly at first, so we could both get used to the feeling, and increased the rhythm of his hips rolling against mine little by little.
I had to be as quiet as possible, and it was hard to do so. The amount of emotion I felt at this right moment made it impossible.
I was whimpering hard, looking at my lover and kissing him. His hand was trying to find mine and when he finally did, he held it tight and squeezed it.
My eyes shut in pure extasy as I felt him filling me up to the brim. Our bodies were started to be covered in sweat, and our whimpers were getting louder.
With his other hand, Noel grabbed my thigh, caressing and holding it, giving him a new angle that helped him thrust even deeper in me, hitting the right spot, making me moan.
He put his lips on mine to silence me.
And with each thrust, he was hitting this magical spot repeatedly, bringing me closer to my climax.
Fuck… I love ye so much Y/N…
With these words, my body let go. My back arched on the bed, my eyes rolled at the back of my head, and my body started trembling. Noel helped me ride out my orgasm and stopped moving, looking at me.
I’ve got ye love, I’ve got ye.
When I finally was back to earth, I felt Noel’s hand caressing my breasts, sliding to my hips.
Why did you stop? I asked
I wanted to see ye cum. I missed hearing yer sweet sounds and seeing ye cum. And I want to last a little bit longer too.
Well, I hope you’re not disappointed.
He chuckled.
How could I be? we both had what we wanted.
Oh and Noely…
What?
I love you so fucking much.
Yea, I know.
I took advantage of the situation to hover him at my turn.
My turn now. Just sit tight.
Yer orders madam.
I put a hand on his shoulder to stabilize myself, taking his member in my other hand, sliding up and down before sinking down on him completely, causing him to moan lowly, as he bit his lower lip.
I grabbed his hands and put them on my hips before putting my hands back on his shoulders as I started bouncing up and down on his hard member.
I was sore from my previous orgasm and knew my next wasn’t far. I adapted a regular pace, kissing him at the same time to silence our moans that were getting louder.
Noel’s arms wrapped around my waist, and he started thrusting in me to help me reach our extasy.
Oh Noel… I moaned lowly
His lips came in my neck, kissing it and leaving a hickey.
He found my sweet spot again and my eyes closed in pleasure.
My insides started convulsing around him, which affected his movements that quickly became sloppy.
Fuck, love, I’m going to cum… He grunted
Just say it one more time. I whimpered
Say wh-what?
Tell me you love me….
Fuck… I love ye to fucking death Y/N…
And just like this, I wrapped a hand around his bicep, while the other pulled at his hair as I let myself go again.
I was only shivers.
My head fell in the crook of Noel’s neck, crying out in pleasure against his lips. Then Noel let out long and desperate moans against mine as he filled me with his hot release.
We held each other tightly, our sweaty bodies connected, kissing and catching our breaths. I rode out my high crying. It had felt so good.
When he softened, he pulled out and we collapsed on the bed, next to each other. He kissed my forehead before caressing my arm and my face. I put my head on his torso, listening to his heartbeat.
Are ye okay? He asked
I’m more than okay, I just cried because it was a lot. I…
Ye needed this, I know. I did too.
I was going to say I missed you, but yeah, I needed you too. With everything that happened…
Hey, I’ve got me scars too love. Ye’ve healed mine and I hope I healed yers.
Oh you did. You saved my life Noely. You did even more.
And this time, I won’t let ye go. That’s a promise. I can have both. I can have ye, and I can have music too. And though, if I had to fucking choose, I’d choose ye without hesitating.
I kissed him before getting up and grabbing an old clean tee to clean our mess.
After this, we quickly fell asleep in each other’s arms.
*
The next morning, I was woken by a pounding on my door. FUCK, THE DOOR! We didn’t lock it!
Wakey wakey in there! my dad said
Fuck! Noel, wake up! I whispered
My young over grumbled
Five more minutes mam… he said
Noel, for fuck’s sake, it’s me not your mam and we’re at my parents!
Holy shit! He said opening his eyes as he jumped out the bed, dressing hastily
Y/N, I’m going in! my mother said
Wait no mam, I’m not presentable!
Oh, it’s all right darling, I gave birth to you, I saw you being born, I’ve already seen you naked, I know how you look like!
Quick, under the bed! I said to Noel, who immediately hid
I barely had the time to cover myself as my mum entered.
Mam! For fuck’s sake I’m 27 years old, my intimacy!
Morning to you too sweetie, I see your language is as flowery as ever!
Soz, you just took me by surprise mam.
Nevermind, what do you want for breakfast?
Huh, toasts. Toasts with some of your strawberry jam please.
Okay. Will you take the same thing Noel? She asked
Oh for fuck’s sake… I mumbled, hiding my face in embarrassment
Huh yea, thank ye Y/M/N, and a cuppa please
Alright. Be downstairs in 10 minutes! She said before closing my bedroom door
Noel showed his head for under the bed, looking at me.
Hello there. He said
I looked at him and we burst out laughing.
Please, swear you’re staying for breakfast.
I’m not going to leave ye in the lurch on yer own, ye know I’m not like that!
Thank God.
I’m only Noel but thank ye love. He chuckled
So modest.
Oh, by the way, ye forgot this when ye left the last time. He said, handing me a key
What’s this?
The key to our place. Will ye come back to me after Christmas?
I kissed him and took the key.
I’m already back, me. I answered
I dressed up and we got downstairs. My mum was in the living room, sat on the couch, waiting for us.
Ah here you are you lovebirds. Sit and have breakfast.
How did you know Noel was here mam?
Not hard to guess when there are boxers half-hidden in your bedside table. Listen, it’s normal at your age to go at it…
Oh here we go… I said
But just not under my roof anymore. When you were 16-17 years old, I couldn’t say anything.  Preferred you to do it in a safe place rather than risking getting arrested. But now you’re both 27, you’re grown-up adults, you have plenty of places to go to do it. I gave birth to my daughter, but I never signed to hear her…
MAM! I exclaimed, interrupting her
Well, long story short, don’t have sex here anymore, are we clear? She said
Yes, understood mam.
Okay, we’re good then. Oh and now you’re reconciled, Y/N, after Christmas, you could…
Piss off? I asked
I wouldn’t say it like this, but that’s the idea. Your father and I we love you, you’ll always be welcomed here, but I know that if you stay, Noel will too, and what I just said would have fallen on deaf ears. At least you’ll be able to… do your thing by your side.
Well it’s nice seeing you again mam, it’s not like I’ve been away for a few months. I said, rolling my eyes
And I’m happy to see you my little angel, but it’s still the same point. Don’t have sex under my roof anymore. I didn’t raise you to assist to your lovemaking.
Jesus fucking Christ mother…
I never felt so embarrassed in my whole life. My mother had the talent to do this. At the time, I was even thinking about spending Christmas with the Gallaghers to run away from this. But happily, my mother never broached the topic again, as if nothing happened. A slightly avant-garde mother for her time but embarrassing as hell.

Referencing the lyric change in Karma;
"How does it feel to officially be 'The guy on the Chiefs'?" Jason teased Travis on the podcast. With a laugh, Travis said that he had "no clue" Taylor planned to mention him during her show. "Well, I might have had a little bit of a clue," he then admitted. "But definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, [it] still shocked me."  "Yeah, you could tell in the video," Jason responded.  "I was like, 'Oh shh! She really said that,'" Travis marveled. 
When Jason notes that Scott Swift is wearing a Chiefs lanyard at the Eras Tour Night 3 he asks...
"What are we doing, Scott? You're gonna let this man's devilish good looks and relationship with your daughter sway you from a lifetime of fandom, Scott? Ridiculous."  Travis further explained, "I might have persuaded him at dinner the night before. When I met him." 
Travis commenting on the first Eras Tour he has attended as Taylor's boyfriend..
"The show was even more electric knowing that I had a little bit more to enjoy," he said of watching her perform in Argentina. "Taylor absolutely ripped it. She killed it and it looked like she was having some fun up there." 
We love to see the support Travis is showing to our little Indie artist.
We are to expect to see Taylor and Travis spending time together during the Eras tour break according to ET sources (x)
"Taylor has a two-month break in her tour, taking December and January off, and the couple is planning to spend more time together" during that time.
ET reports (x)
Donna and Ed Kelce, and Andrea and Scott Swift are expected to meet for the first time on Monday as the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs face off for Monday Night Football.
We can expect to see Taylor at the November 20 game too.

SR-71 pilot recalls when he set 13 acres of Maryland on fire by dumping fuel after one engine exploded during his last Blackbird flight
The SR-71 Blackbird
In the 1960’s, the US Air Force (USAF) developed the SR-71 Blackbird, a plane that could travel more than 3 times as fast as the sound produced by its own engines.
Throughout its nearly 24-year career, the SR-71 spy plane remained the world’s fastest and highest-flying operational aircraft. Flying at Mach 3+ from 80,000 feet, it could survey 100,000 square miles of Earth’s surface per hour. And in the off chance an enemy tried to shoot it down with a missile, all the Blackbird had to do was speed up and outrun it.
SR-71 T-Shirts
Tumblr media
CLICK HERE to see The Aviation Geek Club contributor Linda Sheffield’s T-shirt designs! Linda has a personal relationship with the SR-71 because her father Butch Sheffield flew the Blackbird from test flight in 1965 until 1973. Butch’s Granddaughter’s Lisa Burroughs and Susan Miller are graphic designers. They designed most of the merchandise that is for sale on Threadless. A percentage of the profits go to Flight Test Museum at Edwards Air Force Base. This nonprofit charity is personal to the Sheffield family because they are raising money to house SR-71, #955. This was the first Blackbird that Butch Sheffield flew on Oct. 4, 1965.
Its engineering was so cutting edge that even the tools to build the SR-71 needed to be designed from scratch.
What it’s like to fly the world’s fastest plane
Spencer Hall interviewed for SBNation former SR-71 Blackbird pilot Rick McCrary about what it’s like to fly the world’s fastest plane.
McCrary explained;
‘You waddle out there in your spacesuit, carrying your little cooler because it gets quite hot in that spacesuit. You go out to a van with some La-Z-Boys in it, these big recliners, and they drive you out to the airplane. It’s sitting there with all the cables hooked up to it, just like a space launch. It’s outgassing stuff, people are checking it, and then people start unhooking it and leaving and then it’s just you and the crew chief. You get into the seat, close the hatch, and you’re in your cocoon.
‘Startup was also a unique thing. It had this special fuel, because the temperatures during flight got up to over 600 degrees Fahrenheit when you’re at speed. The worry is that normal fuel, which you want to explode quickly during flight and have a low flashpoint, well…you wanted the exact opposite with the Blackbird. You’re carrying so much fuel that the last thing you want to worry about is it self-igniting.
Join this SR-71 Blackbird driver for a top secret recoinnassance mission over North Korea
Tumblr media
A Boeing KC-135Q Stratotanker refueling an SR-71
‘You’d burn 80,000 pounds of fuel in about an hour and twenty minutes. That’s a lot of gas. You’re on the boom a lot, and that was why in-flight refueling experience was such a critical part of the screening process. You didn’t have a lot of time to do it, and you had to get it right the first time. Three refuelings was common, but on longer missions you’d refuel six or eight times. Those were long days.
Last flight on the SR-71 Blackbird
‘You’d light up the afterburner right after that first refueling, and take it to full power for the next hour. That’s pretty amazing, because no other plane can fly in full afterburner continuously. All other planes have either a three minute limit, or five minute limit on that, but you’d be going at full afterburner for an hour, hour and a half.’
When Hall asked McCrary if he remembered when his last SR-71 Blackbird flight took place, he answered;
‘The answer is kind of an interesting yes and no. There came the time to move on, and we had a good deal. We got to take it to the National Air Show in Washington, DC and put it on display there. That was going to be our last flight.

Setting 13 acres of Maryland on fire during last flight on the SR-71 Blackbird
‘As we took off from there and came back around for a pass, the right engine exploded. We had to dump gas, and set about thirteen acres of Maryland on fire as we did that. That was kind of interesting, just spewing flaming fuel and titanium pieces around.’
McCrary explained that this wasn’t rural Maryland;
‘Actually, we were pointed at the White House out of Andrews Air Force Base. It was funny listening back to the voice tape because I start by saying “Well, we’ll go out over the bay here and dump this fuel.” About thirty seconds later I say “Screw it” and just dump it. We defoliated southern Maryland, but we got it back on the ground, which was great. After all that happened, I absolutely remember shutting it down. My legs started shaking uncontrollably with the adrenaline from it all when I knew it was over with. My co-pilot never flew again, either.’

Hi, it's me again!
Do you know if there's a playlist somewhere of what music the Coffee Gang would listen to?
I feel like maybe a few artists were mentioned in the comics from what I've read so far, but I wonder if you had an inkling/headcanon/any idea what the characters would enjoy.
... Now that I'm thinking about it, the weird temporality of comics might make this an issue...
Oh this is a super fun question which I have no ready-made answer for. (If anyone reading this does have a playlist made or opinions on the subject, share 'em in the notes!)
Going by the comics timeline, I'd start with late 60s/early 70s rock and disco hits. MJ seems the most tuned into new music by way of youth culture and dance venues. Stuff by the Beatles, Beach Boys, Monkees, the Foundations, the whole top 40s list. (ASM #45/130)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Emphasis on female solo acts, maybe: MJ pulls an Aretha Franklin album from Peter & Harry's shelf, and I bet she likes Nancy Sinatra. Wherever she goes, the first thing she does is often to turn on some tunes. For the most part, she's the group tastemaker.
As for Peter, I'm guessing this ask was prompted by ASM 136:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's a running joke that being Spidey keeps him a decade behind [current date] pop culturally. Ella Fitzgerald's career dates back to the 30s; I like to think that most of Peter's music taste + collection is inherited from Uncle Ben and Aunt May. Though humorously cynical nerd Pete might've had time to latch onto Tom Lehrer pre spider-bite, the way some modern high schoolers have a Weird Al phase.
The Osborn-Parker record collection is probably mostly Harry's, covering similar cultural territory to MJ's tastes. Maybe there's a never-opened Wagner opera in there courtesy of Norman. The girl on the cover of Hip Hug-Her always reminds me of Gwen, but I have no idea where her music taste might go. Movie soundtracks, maybe?
Tumblr media
ASM 151 has notes on JJJ's music collection, of all people: Guy Lombardo, good lord. (And Mantovani is an orchestra conductor.)
Flash is a bit mysterious because his background took a while to fill in. In the far future of ASM 574, he listens to Tom Waits on Peter's recommendation. I was kind of nursing the headcanon that his dad kept Johnny Cash around the house and referred it to the only music for real men left in the world but rarely played any of it, until Flash got around to listening on his own and to his surprise really emotionally connected with it and reclaimed it into his own music taste...
In any case, there's a bit of music still left once Gwen leaves the scene. Kung Fu Fighting is PeterMJ's song, for one.
Tumblr media
One of the last big nights out of the classic era is to the disco in SSM 24! This delightfully camp villainous music group is unfortunately not available on any music platforms, but KC and the Sunshine Band, the Bee Gees, the Jacksons and the Trammps certainly are.
Tumblr media
And finally, based on this random panel whose issue I've forgotten, I like to think MJ got everyone into new wave at some point. The B-52s, Talking Heads and the Waitresses have reminded me of her. I also think her modeling connections would introduce her to the NYC weird art scene of that era, like Klaus Nomi, Grace Jones, and Laurie Anderson. By that time it would mostly be the Watson-Parker music taste, though.
Well, that's a whole lot of links to individual songs and not a coherent playlist at all, but I wanted to cover as many different bands/eras/ideas as I could work in. I'm sure I missed some though.

do you have any tips on keeping your space clean during a depression spiral (asking for a friend who is me) (it's ok if you don't want to answer this or want to answer later bc ik it's kinda heavy and might require a diff headspace)
i do! and a book recommendation that changed my life and my entire approach to cleaning during rough times — it’s called “how to keep house while drowning” by kc davis, lpc.
the book is where i got this and ive kind of made it my own! but its the rule of fives (i think, this isn’t all exact quotes i don’t have great recall from the book just what ive taken from it) so the rule is basically separate the stuff out - start by getting all of the trash, put it in bags and in the same spot (don’t take it out yet) and then move to putting things that have places into their places… then the things that don’t have a place go in a pile for now. etc etc. it’s all about being light on yourself.
please, read the book or listen to the audiobook. it genuinely changed so many ways i look at cleaning and mental health and shame etc etc. <3

I also like that in a series that focuses on conflicts between humanity and Digimon, Gulus Gammamon, the ultimate antagonist, does not give two fucks about humans. He gives exactly one fuck about one human, and the rest do not even register on his radar. There is a very real chance that he wouldn't have bothered the humans at all if his plans had gone through, beyond the collateral damage caused by the Digimon fleeing from him.
Gulus is the literal embodiment of the "I have had Hiro for half a day and if anything ever happens I will kill everyone in the digital and human worlds. Not my self, I'm on a mission but everyone else." Meme.

What are some hobbies the gangs have???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Got this question a good amount so here we go!
E.V.I.L.:
KC: She very rarely has any spare time bc her presence is demanded everywhere by everyone for business stuff, but they like going camping! He also goes on. A lot of Tinder dates. Like. A lot. Idk if dating counts as a hobby but for him it probably is. It’s gonna stay that way too until she stops scaring dates off. Aside from that, he loves going for walks, going to restaurants and talking to friends!! (If only he had any.) Very much a person who likes to Go Places and Do Things
Eclipse: Spare time? What spare time?? With that man’s schedule?? I think the hell not! What little time Eclipse gets to himself he spends sleeping and mentally prepping for his next shift, but, if by some divine intervention he got to do more then that on any given evening, then his ass is watching soap operas and movies on his couch and watching cat videos on tiktok during the ad breaks.
BM: Their hobbies include: robbery, listening to music, committing tax fraud, visiting aquariums with their yearly pass, terrorizing fast food restaurants, making unholy food abominations that somehow include blood in them, shoplifting, terrorizing their local hot topic WHILE shoplifting, adding to their knife collection, whatever random hobby they picked up for a singular weekend that their ADHD ass then dropped as soon as the fixation ended….. oh and they draw sometimes!
SF: Can’t answer this one bc spoilers, it’s not like huge spoilers but it is gonna be a really cute and fun thing that I want yall to see for yourself!
G.O.O.D.:
Earth: She likes to play the violin! Will sometimes write new songs but she doesn’t perform them or anything. She loves clothes shopping and putting together outfits in her spare time, she’ll also happily dress up anyone who asks her to. She also likes doing her own hair and other folks hair, makeup too! She’s a girly girl! She also loves playing video games and board games with her co-workers! She’s…. Fiercely competitive….
Sun: She loves listening to audiobooks in his spare time, he also likes to play the piano! Though he doesn’t make any new music of his own unless she’s collaborating with Earth on a song. Like Earth, xe also LOVES to play board games and card games, the group has special versions of the games they use that include braille! Going for walks, knitting, and making crafts are also a thing she finds really fun, he just really loves doing more calm activities, with the exception of game nights!
Moon: This fucking nerd is modding video games in his spare time and putting in another 20 hours into Stardew Valley or Minecraft. You’d think with how many threats he makes that Moon would be into more violent video games like battle royals or team based shooters but he takes after his brother a lot in the whole ‘I prefer relaxing hobbies’ department. He also finds great joy in building things and coding, making neat little gadgets that don’t do anything particularly special but do something neat! Oh, and weapons, of course. If he’s not building a silly little device then he’s reenacting Myth Busters or some shit or trying to make a weapon that does something outrageous. “A rocket powered hammer does not exist but *could* it?” Also loves driving around the city rather than walking, clears his head.
Lunar: Lunar shares a lot of hobbies that the other members of the group also happen to have, he loves playing video games and making crafts! They also like watching dog videos! Funnily enough, he’s picked up scrapbooking, and I’ve already mentioned how he’s picked up learning braille. He also wants to learn how to play piano or the violin from Earth or Sun but he’s too nervous to ask.

In response to @silversiren1101’s challenge: write from your KC's perspective the answer to an interview question asking why they love their chosen other.
---
“Did you see that?”
With his beer mug Lann directed Siavash’s gaze to the hip of the Varisian merchant at the bar but it was already too late. Woljif’s left hand had snaked under his jacket in the guise of a casual bump and he was off, slightly richer, delivering another bottle to the Count in the opposite corner of the tavern.
Lann grimaced after him. “You’re not going to say anything, are you?”
“Nope.”
“As Knight-Commander, I mean. Our leader, our protector, our shining example.”
Siavash winked. “Heavy burden, isn’t it?”
“I just don’t get it,” Lann sighed. “Out of all the… why him? I mean fine, what do I know about this stuff? But it seems to me there was a point in the Crusade where you could have taken your pick.”
“It’s not like choosing a cake in a pastry shop, Lann.”
“It just falls on your head?”
Siavash considered. “No, not exactly that either. You do choose. And you’re chosen. But it’s more of an act of will than choosing a cake.”
“Did someone say cake?”
“Fye said he’s clean out, Aivu. Ask Dae if he’ll send out for one.”
Once she’d bounded off he slid his guitar into his lap and laid a hand across the strings.
“You have to choose to look closer. It’s more like looking for the right cliff to jump off of when you’re learning to use your wings.”
“Yeah, how are those bruises?”
“Daeran fixed them up but I kept this one.” He rolled up a sleeve to proudly display a bluish-green elbow. “A reminder for next time.”
Lann opened his mouth to make some quip but saw the intense, thoughtful look and shut it again.
“That’s something I try to do. Keep a bruise or two so I don’t forget and rush in again.”
“You’re telling me—forgive me, I’m trying. I’m also drunk. You’re telling me you willingly went into this. With forethought. Climbed up on that ridge and threw yourself off.”
“Yeah.”
“For Woljif.”
“Yeah.”
“All right, I’m drunk enough to ask. What do you see in him?”
“And I’m drunk enough to answer.” Siavash leaned his way, a challenging gleam in his eye.
“I see a man who’s had nothing handed to him. Not even three meals a day, let alone a fair shot at life. From the moment he was born, everyone—even his own parents—took one look and decided he was worthless at best. He learned early on that if you don’t toughen up you end up at the bottom of a very miserable heap.
“And toughen up he did. He’s smart, resourceful and ambitious, and even if the Crusade hadn’t given him a leg up he would still have succeeded. He built himself a life, and he built himself an armor.
“But, lucky for me, not a perfect one.
“There were gaps if you knew where to look, if you bothered to look, and what showed through those gaps was a heart that was bruised but still beating, full of hope hidden behind ambition and kindness disguised as selfishness.
“I don’t think it would have taken much to crush that heart. He’d surrounded himself with the wrong kind of people, and they’d already put quite a few dents in it by the time I showed up. But it also didn’t take much to nurture it. All he needed was a chance to show his worth, to see how the kindness paid off, to know there was a shoulder for him just once in his life. To let him believe in the things he wanted to believe in… including himself.
“I’m not asking for credit. Someone else might have done the same. It’s just the Lady’s luck I was the one who found him.
“I’m also lucky he gave me a chance to see through the cracks in his armor. I don’t know what I did to deserve it—somebody as tough and smart as he is listening to my sentimental treacle? And not just that but making the leap of faith that I wasn’t going to be like everybody else in his life so far and not let him down. Maybe it’s just the pretty face?”
He gave a shrug and a lopsided grin, but then grew serious again.
“Because I’ve let people down before, but for him I’m willing to put the work in. I’ve stuck by him, and he’s stuck by me even when every instinct was whispering at him to run.
“I guess we both decided to live up to each other.”
A lull in the tavern chatter punctuated this.
“You could use the image of a diamond in the rough, but I think of him as one of those captive songbirds, that are so used to not being able to fly they don’t even try to escape when you open the cage—only he did. He dared. He even trusted me when I didn’t trust myself. People call him a coward but he’s the bravest person I know.
“He’s smart, funny, insightful, competent, surprising… handsome… Have you really looked at that smile? Ah, I could go on. This song says it better.”
Lann laughed and polished off his beer. “If you’re going to start playing love songs to Woljif I’m going to need another one of these.”
“Get me one too.”
The instant his fingers hit the strings, even across the packed Half Measure, Woljif’s head turned to glance over sideways, a shy smile softening his expression.
(to the tune of “Time in a Bottle” by Jim Croce)
On the cliff stands the cold iron city A river of grief runs below The discarded lives and dead dreams flow to oceans afar And none heeds the crow
Toss aside rags to find riches Though long since your hope should have died An uncaring wind stirs your wings but you use them to hide No one thought you could fly
(chorus) But in your heart, I’ve come to know The gold you seek already glows Like hearthfire The ember burns, I feel it close A breath is all it needs to grow Let mine in
The chains and the fears that drag earthwards Let me unlock with my song To watch you take wing is my heart’s dearest dream and I long For our hearts’ flight as one
(repeat chorus) But in your heart, I’ve come to know The gold you seek already glows Like hearthfire The ember burns, I feel it close A breath is all it needs to grow Let mine in

What do you think the MS characters studied during FCU/at university generally?
Thank you for the ask! ^^
My FCU knowledge is very limited, so I’m sorry if this is ooc or goes against cannon 😅
I’ve also never done something like this, so I hope the layout is okay!
What the main Mystreet characters studied at FCU/College/University
———————————————
Like I say, I don’t remember much of FCU. So this will be based on their MS and PDH personalities!
(Also I’m British so I’m sorry if I mixed anything up!)
Aph
-I strongly think aph went into a creative subject.
-Specifically Graphic Design or Drawing and Painting
-I also think she could have taken Creative Writing, after realising that she could make Fan fiction her entire job if she just “got it published”
-turns out it wasn’t that easy.
-(I think she’d have considered a Veterinary course, but decided against it after realising she’d have to see some of the animals pass on)
Katelyn
-I truly don’t talk about Katelyn enough.
-The easy answer is obviously a sports based course.
-Such as studying/training for volleyball or Sports Coaching.
-BUT I think she also could have done something in Drama, specifically Acting and Performance.
-I think she would have taken up Boxing Lessons during this, either for fun or to try cover her love of Theatre.
Nana(kc)
-Bakery.
-It’s easy, I know. But I really think she probably would have taken a Bakery and Patisserie course.
-If we’re also talking in universe stuff, then I think she might have taken some form of Magics Classes.
-And depending on when her dream of starting a maid cafe started, she could have taken Business Management to try and do that.
-I like to think she had a part time job at the Meif’wa scouts as a scout leader.
-(Probably also considered Veterinary as an option)
Garroth
-This man was way too difficult
-But it’s okay we love him anyway
-I think Garroth would be the type of person who just panicked and applied for a course in whatever he got the best grades in at the end of secondary/high school, even if it’s not what he wanted to do. (Which is valid)
-He probably could have continued in Baseball, but realised he’d rather keep it as a hobby and not a career.
-Garte absolutely offered him an apprenticeship at his business, and definitely tried super hard to get him to accept.
-Thankfully, Zianna pushed for him to do what he wants not what Garte wants. We love zianna.
-But, Garte definitely made him do a part time course in Business Management “just in case”
-Garroth doesn’t know what he wants to do in life yet, and that’s perfectly fine.
Zane
-Ahhh zane. Just as difficult as his brother.
-I think he could have done English Literature or some form of Poetry, gotta get the angst out somehow.
-But other things MCD and the wiki also make me think he could have done Business management to try and please his dad and become the favourite child.
-Garte probably offered him the the apprenticeship after Garroth declined it, but it was too late to accept.
-He probably considered an art course because of his love of MLP 2D animation.
Vylad
-MY BOYYY
-I have so many opinions
-Okay, so for some reason I really think Vylad would take a Photography course. It just makes sense in my mind.
-If not photography, I think he would have taken any course that involved him having to travel in order to study.
-I think Vylad learned at least 1 other language during college/uni.
-Probably took baking classes at one point, but kept eating his projects before he could present them.
-I don’t think Garte got around to offering him the apprenticeship, but he wouldn’t have accepted anyway.
Laurence
-This man. I love him, but his wiki is….lacking compared to everyone else’s.
-But we continue anyway
-I’m tempted to say he didn’t go to Uni/college, and instead helped on his parents farm for a little while or did some form of Apprenticeship.
-if he did I think Laurence could have continued football/soccer, but I think he’d get bored and choose something else.
-I think Laurence would be the type who chooses his courses based solely on what he enjoys doing, without a real plan on what to do afterward. (me too)
-I think he would have taken a culinary course, mainly surrounding savoury food.
-college/uni is probably where he learnt Japanese.
-I think Cadenza would have convinced him to do a part time Fashion and Beauty course “or she’d disown him”.
-Definitely did Babysitting as a part time job.
Dante
-Dante. One of the hardest out of this list.
-I’m honestly so stumped for our dear Danny boy
-I can imagine Dante going into something like Engineering or Film.
-I literally have no idea why, it’s just all I picture when I think about it. I wish I could provide more information
-I think he probably got a job pretty early after leaving Secondarily/High school. Like just something small, not a stable forever job.
-I think College/Uni has to be around the time he toned down his PDH-era flirting.
Travis
-I feel like Travis could have went into Media or something along those lines.
-Or social studies
-He seems like he’d do an apprenticeship somewhere, but I’m not sure where.
-he’s a tricky one
-he definitely did cooking lessons at some point
-I think college/Uni is also where he learnt a martial art
-He defiantly went to the same place as Dante
Aaron
-I think Aaron didn’t have much control over what he studied. I think he was heavily influenced by his parents.
-Definitely took Business Management
-Definitely took some form of Werewolf classes
-And definitely lost interest quickly
-100% made use of the on-campus gym. He probably spent more time there than classes.
Lucinda
-Magic time
-Definitely took multiple Magic Courses.
-Specifically about Familiars and Witchcraft
-Took bakery classes on the side, and tried to mix the two together.
-I think she could have also taken gardening on the side.
Nicole
-I think Nicole’s dad would have tried to convince her to study Law or Politics, but after less than a year she switches.
-I think she would have taken Sport and Exercise Science, to better herself and others.
-I think she could have taken Veterinary part time too, like a wildlife sanctuary or something.
-She probably took martial art classes in between classes.
Cadenza
-CADENZAAA
-yes I’m including our girl
-She absolutely took Fashion Design.
-And possibly Beauty on the side.
-She knew exactly what she wanted in Secondary/High school, and she hasn’t changed her mind since.
-Definitely took self defence classes
-Also helped out at her parents farm for a little while.
———————————————
I hope this was okay, I had to re-do the whole thing three times cause I kept accidentally losing all the progress 😅

I think we found the creator of Extraordinary You! Also, his concept of a deity certainly fits the concept of a deity in kdramas if Goblin and Angel's Last Mission's cruel, capricious deities are anything to go by.
But also, it's such a parable about parents and children - the logic of "I made you so I can destroy you" that he uses is such - because he's ceased to deny Kang Cheol is alive and breathing speaking etc person - he is not even denying this any more, it's literally "I made him so I can unmake him" and that is in a way an attitude of a controlling parent taken to extreme.
I mean, he keeps saying KC is a monster but his only crime is leaving the dad's control and doing his own things. Once again, parental control parallel made flesh.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is such a metaphor for an author sick of their creation and wanting something new and not being associated with it but also, once again, the echo of parental relationships of a certain kind where there has to be a winner and a loser.
Tumblr media
I forgot that! I forgot that he initially planned to have Kang Chul commit suicide on that bridge which makes me wonder what kind of dark artsy comic he was going for if the original story was golden child who saw his whole family murdered, was wrongfully accused in their deaths and committed suicide out of despair without ever finding an answer. Like WTF! But two things - it shows how KC always had a will to live and some degree of self-actualization and also it's a take on commercial art versus the story the artist wants to tell (the suicide stuff was not popular but it was his, the former was popular but not what he wanted to tell, and resentment and pull between the two.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But also!!! This is a rewatch so I know YJ was the original creator and so in a way the story becomes the push-pull fight between two of Kang Cheol's creators as to what his story should be, what his end should be. And perhaps he IS so indomitable, so determined to live because his real creator wasn't a disappointed middle aged man, but a little girl who wanted a hero and who, because she was a little girl, believed in good triumphing over evil and justice prevailing. YJ is the original, true creator of Kang Cheol, and that is why the narrative itself won't let the dad's vision come to fruition when it decides to contradict the true creator's intentions and world view.
