The more I think about it, the more I am increasingly charmed by the idea of Derek finding lil baby Eli on the nemeton stump and and being like, "Well, I'm clearly the only person responsible enough to raise this baby" and just adopting Eli and then everyone throws a "So You Found A Baby" party for him.
I also am in love with the idea that Stiles buys little baby clothes and it's, like, a little pair of jeans and a plaid shirt, and Peter is fucking horrified in the corner, drinking a glass of wine, wondering why he's been cursed to witness so much flannel.
the idea of the nemeton gifting derek a baby is incredibly charming and fairy tale like. the nemeton benevolently wanting to apologize to derek like "sorry about all the shit that happened to you that was sort of my fault. here's a cute baby xoxoxox"
i also love the idea of eli imprinting on stiles like a duckling and just becoming his little shadow when he's around which is both terrifying and insanely attractive to derek. the sheriff thinks it's hilarious and is more than happy to babysit. stiles becoming really involved with eli is [chef's kiss].
lydia being a doting fairy godmother because someone has to have taste (not you, peter) and she's done the research to help improve eli's cognitive development.
malia being the fun kind of aunt who helps eli commit baby crimes. she'd encourage independence and play with him because lbr she's not nurturing exactly and derek doesn't trust her to babysit for extended periods but malia would be fun.
liam has no idea what to do with a child. don't even ask. he's just a tall toddler himself. he's the one to be like "mood" when eli cries.
scott is the one who carries all sorts of cool bandaids. the ones that have batman and paw patrol and disney characters. his mother was a nurse damn it and he's a vet. scott is a patient person and has a calm bedside manner. scott mccall would coo at babies and play peek a boo in a grocery store line. because fuck you jeff davis scott is a softie and would still talk to people and make sure derek was okay at minimum.
peter being peter about it. you know he'd watch over that kid like a mother hen and pretend he wasn't. derek would have mixed feelings about this. peter would also try to get rid of the plaid that has entered eli's wardrobe. it's his chosen battle.

TOP GUN COUNTRY AU! PT.2: COUNTRY BOOGALOO
PREV || NEXT
*The class of 86’ got to witness young Mav’s toss-ability at the O Club, so it’s only fair that, as their successors, the baby pilots get to see it too at the Hard Deck."
Let’s just say Slider did NOT make a good first impression on his new nieces and nephews 😅.
It started as a typical night of drinking at the Hard Deck. It’s been about a week or so since the Uranium Mission, and the kids are hanging around the pool tables. Every pilot called back to TOP GUN is still there as the higher-ups haven’t decided what to do with them yet.
(And they are afraid to bring up the topic to Admiral Kazansky again after he sent that 2 star-admiral running away from his office with his tail tucked between his legs and looking one second away from shitting himself. *it was not Cyclone and Warlock)
So, for now, the baby pilots are enjoying their leave by drinking some good-ass beer and enjoying each other’s company.
They all are a fond sight around the base for everyone who works there. It’s rare for someone on staff to see Captain Mitchell walking around and not be accompanied by one to two of his students trailing behind him like ducklings. Warlock almost burst out laughing once when a visiting Admiral had to do a double take when he saw a giant moving mass of 12 Naval Pilots on the Tarmac and then saw the tiny 5’7 figure of Maverick somewhere in the middle before disappearing from view because he’s shorter than most of them. It was all thanks to a well placed elbow nudge in the side from Beau that saved his career.
So yeah, just a funky lil old pilot and his 12 adopted naval pilots.
While the Daggers are chatting, a tall man (6’2) walks in wearing aviator sunglasses and a leather G-1 Jacket. He’s wearing a lot of patches, but it’s hard to determine what each of them is.
The jacket catches Bob’s eyes, and he points out the guy to the rest of the squad, who turns to look at him. They all watch as he looks around the room and before his eyes land on  Maverick who’s sitting at the bar, chatting with Penny. He starts walking towards Mav slowly, looking like he’s trying to sneak up on Mav. Fanboy, with narrowed eyes, quietly says the guy looks like a lion stalking its prey. Now, normally, a comment like that would get a laugh out of some of the pilots, but they’ve all got a bit too much alcohol in their systems. Instead, they all tense, and now everyone is watching this guy like a hawk.
The kids watch as the guy lunges at their Mavdad from behind and gets him in a bear hug. Then he drags Mav off the stool, who lets out a startled cry, and suddenly, the entire squadron is on their feet.
But they all relax but don't stop watching when the man starts spinning him around in a circle, laughing.
They all have the same thought running through their heads.
"Aight, cool, this guy must be a friend of Captain dad. I wonder how long it's been since they've seen each - OH MY GOD!” – and then proceed to go into smoke in the air panic mode as the unknown man fucking launches Mav HIGH into the air. Like this man almost touches the mug display on the ceiling.
The kids go into full-on – frothing at the mouth – protective mode and are already making their way over with Phoenix and Hangman leading the charge.  The guy catches Mav easily, and the kids breathe a sigh of relief. But then they see this guy is winding up for another pitch and are like – “I think the fuck NOT!”. They’ve got this MF’s ass in a radar lock.
No, this was no man.
This was a boogie - an ENEMY - and they’ve got tone.
The Guy and Mav turn to see the approaching Daggers, and the guy puts Mav down but keeps his hands on Mav’s hips. Mav lights up at the sight of his students and opens his mouth.
“Hey, guys! I’ve got someone I want you to me-”
But his kids don’t hear a word he is saying. They are all gone; they’ve gone completely raptor feral.
Phoenix is the first to land an attack. She jumps on the guy’s back and latches on to him like a spider monkey. She gets her forearm against the front of his neck and pulls hard; Penny says later that he sounded like a dying horse, even if Slider disagrees.
She gets the Boogie to let go of Mav’s hips, and Coyote quickly picks him up and cradles the old aviator in his arms while Bob and Fritz check him for injuries. With Mav safely out of harm’s way, the rest of the kids go in for the kill.
Hangman dives in for the tackle, grappling the man around his waist and pushing overboard out the front door of the Hard Deck. Rooster runs to the door and holds it open allowing the screaming trio out onto the sand, the rest of the kids follow closely behind screaming bloody murder.
Phoenix and Hangman try to wrestle the man down on the ground, but he isn’t giving up and fights back with all he’s got. He’s thrashing around, kicking up sand, and prying Phoenix off his back. She looks like she’s riding a raging mechanical bull. He’s not ready for the full force of a flying Rooster tackling him, and the Tree of a man goes down.
Then out of nowhere, a volley of pool noodles starts raining down on the Boogie.
Somehow, the other pilots had each found a pool noodle lying around and were now wielding them like baseball bats.
The Boogie gives up on trying to phoenix off him and brings his hands up to defend him. He’s able to rip Fanboy’s pool noodle out of his hands and whacking them back.
Fanboy runs off because he spots something out of the corner of his eye. When he comes running back into view, he’s holding a giant Eagle Floaty high above his head and screaming like Tarzan.
The Boogie’s eyes go wide, and he tries to escape harder, but it is hard for him when he keeps getting whacked in the head with a pool noodle.
They’ve got this guy on the ropes, and the guy is basically beaten into the ground.  He’s pinned down by the combined strength of Rooster, Hangman, and Phoenix. Fanboy stands over their downed foe, ready to deliver the final blow via plastic eagle.
“Lieutenants, stand down!”
And everyone freezes in mid-motion, the direct order from a commander officer unable to be ignored.
Phoenix still has the guy in a headlock. Hangman’s got his arms wrapped around the guys legs, holding him down.
Rooster’s half lying on top and half holding down the man’s torso.
Payback, Omaha, Halo, Harvard, and Yale all have paused mid-swing of their pool noodles.
Fanboy has the giant eagle float high above his head, ready to dive bomb straight into the man’s face.
At the entrance of the Hard Deck, stands Maverick, looking at all of them in shock. Behind him are Coyote, Fritz, and Bob who try to drag Mav back into the bar so they can fuss over him.
Hangman: Pops, go back inside; we’ve got this motherfucker handled.”
(-What! Who’re you calling a motherfucker-)
Maverick: While I do agree he is a fucker (-HEY-), he’s a fucker I would like intact and without a concussion.
Mav turns to look at the beaten man and says, “You okay, Slider?”
The Man glares at Mav - “Just fucking peachy, Pete.”
Mav winces at the use of his first name.
The rest of the pilots ready their noodles for another swing cause no one talks to their Mavdad like that!
Then Rooster just stops and stares at the guy. Mav called him Slider, which definitely sounds like a callsign. And it sounds familiar. Why does he feel like he should recognize that name?
…………..
“Oh Shit, Uncle Slider?!???”
And the rest was history.
———————-
Needlessly to say, Mav was apologizing for the rest of the night while holding an ice pack against the side of Slider’s head while he nursed a free beer, courtesy of Penny.
The baby pilots all apologize too, and to Mav, they sounded sincere, but Slider can see them all glaring at him over Mav’s shoulder, though Rooster’s is less heated. It doesn’t help his case when he glares right back. It also doesn’t help when he slides his arm around Mav’s waist and pulls him flush against his side.
Mav just snuggles into his friend’s side, completely unaware his kids are plotting out Slider’s death using hand gestures so his friend can see precisely how they’ll do it.
Mav does eventually explain what the tossing was able and Rooster’s all like, “Oh yeah! I forgot all about that.” Slider just throws his hands up in the background.
Slider is peeved that he got attacked by Mav’s adopted horde, but Mav gives him a …..proper apology…….if you catch my drift, later that night.
And that’s the story of Slider first met and almost died by the hands and pool noodles of his new nieces and nephews. Sufficient to say, the retired RIO was immediately placed squarely in the category of Favorite Uncle the Daggers like to fuck with. It’s done with love tho.
An artist's (Fritz's) rendition of the climactic battle:

*Slider was not amused*

Year of the Italian summer 
thinking of the lil Zeppeli kiddo I made as a lil friend for holly :)
Holly and family take a trip out to Italy for Suzi’s work and Holly’s excited to see around where her mother grew up, her dads met and to finally meet Suzi’s foster brother Caesar Zeppeli and his own adoptive daughter Adele Zeppeli. Adele is rude and loves to make trouble for everyone especially her adoptive dad Caesar, and Holly can’t help but think she’s the coolest. 
Being a year younger than Holly’s age you'd never know at first glance the way that Holly followers her like a duckling in just about every way. Going where she goes and doing as she does. Adeles a bit of a bad influence with a tough shell around her heart while Holly is sweet and wants to be able to stick up for herself like Adele does. 
more rambling about them and whatever under the cut,,,
I also imagine a plot line of Adele getting her and Holly into serious trouble that could have gotten them hurt, and Caesar confiding in Suzi that he’s worried he isnt raising Adele right and that she’s going to end up worse than when he found her wandering the streets, But Adele does the classic move of walking by and only overhearing Caesar say he’s worried she’s just going to be a trouble maker her whole life and that he doesn’t understand how Suzi managed to raise Holly to be such a good kid, that maybe Adele would be better off with Suzi.
Adele hearing this and getting upset both with the idea that Caesar doesnt like or want her around (something she would NEVER admit would make her sad) and that she’s making Holly worse. Running away from home only to have Holly follow her in secret until its too late and their both on a train headed god knows where italy. 
The two get into hijinks and trouble as they together stumble into something bigger than a 14 and 15 year old should be handling. Adele a decently skilled Hamon user trying to hone her skills and be as good as she knew Caesar was, and all the other hamon warriors he tells stories about. that she can be good for something. While Holly as a half pillar man half human doesnt have hamon herself and debates if she’s a human or pillar man and what that means for her and her skills and who she is in the eyes of others.
Joseph and Caesar on the other side of this, are now working together to find Holly and Adele before Suzi and Wham find out they lost them. The two of them working together just like the old days, except they’ve both grown up and changed so much since then.

Can I ask how you ended up adopting two people? 😂
(Also, I love your blog)
somehow, irl, but apparently also on tumblr, people sense something about me that makes them Imprint on me like lil ducklings lol (i am totally okay with it). ahahhha call it the lack of mother figure in my youth (my mother is a person who is present in my life -- however, she is by no means a mother figure, nor ever was), but i have a strong urge to Protect and Adopt young (usually queer) people ahahha. i just always remember having no one, so i try to be as kind to the Youth as possible haha. i have been told i feel Safe(TM) before. i honestly don't know why this happens, bc i am literally the most chaotic person to ever exist who, imo, has no mom vibe at all -- i am just a kind stranger -- but ppl seem to disagree haha. i will give my children alcohol and life advice to the best of my ability tho??
(also, thank you, darling!!!! <333)

So I just found you and your story and art and I am in love with how good your stuff is like this is professional level quality and just....babfksdbbd
The thought of Terra pretty much adopting all her plant coven members is gold and the thought of their kids calling her grandma is the best thing I've read in months. I'm just picturing Terra out in town maybe with Raine or someone and a lil kid runs up to her yelling grandma and she beams and picks them up doting on them and talking about how big they are now and whoever is with her is just like....wait....huh?
I'm happy to see you're enjoying the story and the artz!! Thank you so much for reading! ~<3
Also yes, Terra is universally accepted Coven Mom and no one can convince her coven ducklings to see her any other way, LOL
Also, also, the imagery was SO adorable I just had to shirk adult responsibilities to hurry out some lines!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Raine is CONFUSION!!
But Terra is very loving towards her hoard of grandbabies and will drop everything for them~
Thank you so much for the visual!

CH 12 OF WDS!!!
And am now worried a bit in the first part when the 3 were out especially to blue's case; blue is still worried and probably more insecure now because of the loss of his arm, i hope spending more time with CJ and F!LEO - and ghost april - will help him get better to stand on his legs again.
Am so surprised when i read they went to get pizza puff from meat sweat! Like aren't they worried it can be poisoned? Is that what you meant when you wrote " he talked kindly " to him?
The gang come back home and damn am enjoying how the 3 are like mama and her little ducklings.
Splinter caught them and am thinking about metal gear's bad end sounds " sneak? Sneak! SNEAK!! "
I don't know if it was F!leo's plan but bringing out the other snacks for his dad was smart! And when splinter said " you're my favorite " i just laughed at how blue and purple reacted XD
" Leonardo smiles at Casey as he sneaks into the kitchen and holds back his laugh when he sees Blue looking at him in pure disbelief " I LAUGHED SO FUCKING HARD!! BRUH THE ULTIMATE BETRAYAL!!
" handing each one a piece of candy he snuck out of the gift bag for Splinter " Yo!! Isn't that what grandparents do?!🤣
Also when splinter scolded them wasn't only yellow and red on it? And for how long the 3 went out? How many hours?
" he hands Red a small plush unicorn that was hidden in a gap in his prosthetic shoulder. " BRO IS A WHOLE INVENTORY GAME!!! WHAT'S NEXT?! BAZOOKA UNDER YOUR ARMPIT?!?/J
1st, i awe when i heard blue said that purple had been eyeing the keychain i was like 'Aww!'. 2nd, i laughed when he said " you're forgiven! " xD
WHEN ORANGE ASKED TO BE ADOPTED BY F!LEO I LAUGHED HARD AND SAID " YO YO MIKEY!! BABY IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT " XDDDD
“I tried to get Stone’s autograph for the photo, but he almost had a heart attack seeing me.” lmfao i will just wish he didn't crash their date xd
WDS F!Leo wins the award for best dad of the day!
When splinter shouted at leo i was like 'Did he knew all along?!', and when he pat orange was that like an approval that he really adopted him??🤣
I just felt immediately guilt when i knew CJ and blue were left to defend themselves against splinter's scolding XD and leo really won the kids over by presents
" The elder slider opens his heavy eyelids and looks down to see Blue outstretched on his plastron as the teen rests on him " YO I REMEMBERED WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT HOW TGE PEEPAWS VANISHED SND TELEPORTED TO 'I'm blue' FIC!!
TBC (too be continue)
*evil hand rubbing* F!Leo is home at least, for real this time, so he finally gets to witness how everyone was doing in his absence
And yes, “kindly asked” refers to scaring the crap out of Meat Sweats, even slightly threatening the pig mutant into giving F!Leo what he wants hahaha! If the kids were in any kind of danger, F!Leo would be on top of that immediately
It was definitely part of his plan to bribe Splinter with all the food he brought home hahaha! He’s a Leo, he can easily predict how his family will react and that doesn’t exclude Splinter! He knew they were out for too long when he saw the sun setting
And what was it? “Triple betrayal!”
Splinter definitely got Yellow and Red to spill the beans for why F!Leo, Blue and Jr were missing so everyone knew by the time the trio of duckies came home
WDS F!Leo best papa! I’m speaking it into existence, writing it into existence!
And F!Leo doesn’t plan on adopting Lil Orange, the head pat was just because he can’t resist the lil round guy
WDS has an I’m Blue reference!!! *plastic toy horns blast from every angle* /j
Anyways, lots of silly moments in this chapter hahah! I’m glad you liked them! They made me smile a lot when I wrote them, I even snuck some moments I’ve had with my own siblings hahah

I mean, I’ll never tire of Percy discussions, so Percy for the HC ask game…
Sexuality HC: Biromantic demi/grey asexual. He needs trust - a fucklot of trust given his trauma - before he might find himself attracted to someone, but he can be attracted to someone regardless of gender. At the end of the day, he likes them.
That said, I think he has some poshboy hangups around same-sex attraction for a long time - not unlike Tary, honestly (as he says, they’re sheltered) - and I think that even once he gets used to the idea of same-sex attraction being absolutely fine not just as a “fine and magic and/or adoption can let you have heirs” kind of thing (largely due to the twins’ blatant bisexuality, almost certainly), I think he still has some hang-ups around anal sex in general both because of those hang-ups with same-sex attraction and also because of his studies in biology and nature so while he knows about the prostate he also thinks of the arse as for shitting and the idea of the two in one is something that makes him bluescreen and not in the good way.
Vex probably helps him through it, eventually, but I feel like it takes some time, becuase Percy overthinks basically everything.
Favorite ship(s): Perc’ahlia. I know I write an uncommon amount of Percy/Ripley but it is pretty much always with the endgoal of Percy/Vex. Because... Vex and Percy are good for each other. They help each other grow and recover. They love each other so dearly and utterly and tenderly - tender as the bruises they both each bear and god fuck but it’s good okay.
Brotp: Percy and Keyleth are just the fucking best, okay. I’ve already rambled about that in the Keyleth answer (albeit as why they’re a NOTP) so go Here for that to be elaborated.
Notp: Perc’ildan. Cass/Percy and Keyleth/Percy are the close seconds but the thing is Perc’ildan is more common and. I just cannot see it going anyway but catastrophically tits up. As in.
They might hook up because Percy’s exploring his sexuality and Vax can acknowledge a pretty face but neither of them is at all capable of Casual so it ends up becoming a Thing but they’re also such absolute opposites it catastrophically implodes with a massive, acrimonious break-up and that is then seething in the background if and when Perc’ahlia happens.
That’s how I see Perc’ildan going. In just about any universe. It’s not just the events of canon, it’s that Percy and Vax have diametrically opposed worldviews and while that’s what brings Percy and Keyleth and Vax and Keyleth together, those differing worldviews, it would just fuck with EVERYTHING with Vax and Percy together.
Happy HC: Percy spent some time sailing. Percy spent time on boats, with sailors when he was a traumatised, dissociating mess. Percy absolutely knows sea shanties.
Please consider Percy singing sea-shanties under his breath as he works. Please consider Pike, on her return from the Broken Howl, singing sea-shanties and everyone being adorably surprised when Percy joins in without thinking.
Please consider Pike using this in future because he always expects the others to pull this shit but never her.
Angsty HC: Percy absolutely still has small pieces of the bullets which killed him in his body. He knows where they are. He doesn’t tell anyone.
Random HC: I will die on this hill but Percy with acne scars.
Percy is kind of the ugly duckling of Vox Machina - Pike the lil angel, Scanlan so charming, Grog so hench, team half-elf... he’s the dowdy human amongst them all. And I feel like his particular pride, especially when its the love potion incident and as he says “Is it so hard to believe someone might be attracted to me?”, his self-deprecation with Vex - yeah I think he has acne scars. They’re faint by this point, nowhere near as obvious as his torture scars, but they’re there.
I also think he likes the buttflap pyjamas because they cover up so much more of him than regular pyjamas, including his torture scars and he hates showing those scars to other people, that reminder of when he was rendered down into this terrified, raw thing on Ripley’s table.
General opinion: I fucking love Percy as a character. If I met him in person within only a few minutes of meeting him I would want to punt him down a flight of stairs.
God he can be insufferable. God he’s such a well-crafted character. God damn you Taliesin Jaffe.

Monsters but wholesome
Vampires are helpless against sunlight...it puts them right to sleep like cats. However, this can be embarrassing, so they avoid it and spread the whole "burst into flames" story to cover for themselves
Werewolves love barbecue and any sport that involves chasing a ball. They also adopt a lot of dogs.
The Monster Under the Bed became besties with a little kid and just followed them to different homes throughout their life like a scary but friendly dog. He's eaten three burglars and a serial killer so far
Yuki-Onna finally found a spouse who will keep her secret and they run an ice cream shop together. Her powers secretly help them save on electricity
Ghosts in the local haunted house secretly shelter homeless kids, and scare the crap out of creeps and would-be traffickers
A mummy rises from his tomb and ends up an absolute star in academic circles, with Egyptologists following him around like ducklings
Mothman but he squeaks, likes flowers, and has a ridiculous sweet tooth
A Barghest that just really, really, really wants someone to throw the ball :(
Merfolk are actually responsible for salmon sharks looking domesticated--because they are and tend to be spoiled silly by their owners
A lil baby Rakshasa who is the quiet kid in daycare until he has to protect his friends, who basically treat him like a superhero
Sea monsters that sort of "hang out" near shorelines where rip currents happen, and nudge humans who get caught in them back to shore like a little kid tossing stranded starfish back into the surf

Name: Hercules Alcaeus Age: Thirty-two Occupation: Employee at Phil’s Gym Sexuality: Heterosexual Pronouns: He/Him Currently Playing: STAR WALKIN’ by Lil Nas X Big Three: Pisces sun, Aries moon, Cancer rising
Headcanons:
Hercules was adopted when he was a baby by his parents, who had found him crying on the side of the road. Herc considers himself the luckiest guy in the world that he somehow got picked up by the kindest, most caring parents in the world. He was their only child, since they had trouble conceiving before him. They never told him that they weren’t his biological parents until he was a teenager and they couldn’t seem to explain the super strength that he couldn’t harness.
As a child, Herc was viewed as the weird kid. He was always clumsy and a bit too strong for his body. The only real friend he ever had was a shapeshifter, and they bonded over having to learn how to hide their powers. It led to a lot of accidents, and no one really wanted him in their stores or their homes. Hercules could understand why, but it didn’t make it any less frustrating to not know why he couldn’t control himself. After one big incident that happened in public, where Herc had accidentally crumbled an entire building (that he’s still paying off to this day), his parents finally sat him down and told him the truth.
A medal that hung around his neck when he was found indicated that Hercules wasn’t the child of his parents, or of any human. He’d come from Mount Olympus, and was the son of Zeus. His mind was blown, but it honestly began to make a lot of sense, why he kept destroying things accidentally. His real father, Zeus, came to him in a dream after he was told the truth, telling him to train so he could try to earn his spot back with the gods.
Zeus directed him to a gym in town, the owner of which had apparently trained some of the best heroes known to man. It took some convincing, since Phil was a bit of a grump, but he’d seen Herc’s strength on display and decided to take a chance on him. Phil has a pretty specific way of doing things, which Hercules still tries to adjust to to this day, but he’s been the best mentor Herc has ever had.
It was on an outing with Phil where he experienced love at first sight. They were at the Snuggly Duckling and he was looking for who Phil had described as a damsel in distress, which was when he laid eyes on Meg for the first time. She was being hit on by someone who she clearly didn’t reciprocate feelings for, and Herc was ready and willing to fight him for her. Meg insisted that she was fine, that she could take care of herself, and she did. Since then, Hercules has been a little head-over-heels for her, going so far as to risk his life to keep her out of danger, but Meg has some walls up that he can’t seem to take down.
Of course he’s heard about his uncle, Hades, but they’ve never actually met. Herc has been trying to put it off for as long as possible, but apparently, Phil knows him somehow. He’s terrified that the one biological family member he has the opportunity to meet will somehow disappoint him. He doesn’t know much about him besides that he doesn’t like his father, but Herc really isn’t sure why.
For now, Hercules works at Phil’s gym as a pseudo-manager, all around kind of employee. He also gets a free membership, which is nice, but he needs to tone it down when he lifts weights if he doesn’t want to raise any sort of suspicion. Herc only lifts to. his full capacity and trains with Phil whenever the gym is empty.
Still trying to find his way around his body a bit, but Herc has gotten much better over the years since he started working under Phil. He’s pretty clumsy and still causes a few accidents here and there, but he’s working on it.
His body has a terrible reaction to caffeine. He can’t drink coffee without it causing heart palpitations that he’s afraid will cause a heart attack. The same can be said for alcohol: he can’t drink much without it hitting, hard. His tolerance has gotten better since hanging around the Duckling so much to see his favorite bartender.

han-seo immediately latching onto the next morally dubious brother figure when he isn’t even sure if he’ll kill him or not and yet feels safe around him even when he gets his mafia act on which could, for all intents and purposes, trigger him considering his experiences with violence, no matter how absolutely not serious vinvenzo is about it. like,,,,, he doesn’t even flinch when vincenzo shoots the puck past him like he somehow just knows the difference. imagine being a cunning scary mafia guy with blood on your hands and then this traumatized boy imprints on you like a doe-eyed lil duckling bc he labels you as Safe.

Imagine a twilight Titanic au where Edward, Alice and Esme meet on broad the ship at the ages they would be in April 1912. So Edward and Alice would be around 10-11 and Esme is 16-17. Maybe Esme can have a BF who is traveling on the ship with her. They are all returning from holiday in Europe. I want Esme and her BF saving Edward and Alice from the rising waters.
This has all the makings of a great AU one-shot, so I encourage you to write it!
