Horror movie hot takes // Matt + Chris
Again, I’m sorry that this is not my proper writing, but don’t worry! My breeding kink oneshot is on its way, I gotchu guys ;) I’m hopefully going to be dropping it some time in the middle of the week, so this is just some light and fun reading to do until then whilst you wait - if you want of course… pls humour my stupid ideas lol.
Thank you to whoever suggested this because I’ve been dying to give u guys my breakdown. Horror is one of my FAV genres, idk why, I just love scaring myself. Also, I don’t have just one to share with u guys, but three different options each because it’s such an expansive genre with so many probable things to pick from. You guys can probably tell that I have way too much fun with these things… (Plus they’d look good in multiple different genres and I rlly wish I could add more but I don’t want these to get too long bc they’re meant to be hot takes).
Obviously, a couple of the pictures I’ve used for the visuals may be potentially triggering as they contain blood and other disturbing bits of paraphernalia, so please if you’re squeamish, proceed with caution!!
But anyways…
Matt:
Tumblr media
First up Matt’s most likely to star in some type of rural corn maze horror. I’m thinking proper Southern gothic style, low quality, out in the sticks and with only a small population in the farming town where he resides.
I could so see the storyline following the main character who moves to this place, but very quickly gets that sinking feeling in her stomach that there’s something not right about the town, from the way the locals look at her to the way Matt speaks when she first arrives. There’s got to be that cliché plot line where something suspicious is afoot, something that she wants to unearth.
Matt’s character gives off creepy neighbour vibes, like the kind that watches the main character from behind his curtains as she unloads the moving truck. This Matt is properly country too, from the cowboy boots on his feet to his red flannel shirt and his shotgun that he randomly carries around because he’s a sheep farmer (do I envision him using his country accent, yes, yes I do).
Long story short, the rural town isn’t just a town, it’s actually a cult, and the reason the farmers rear cattle and mind sheep is so that they can conduct ritualistic sacrifices with them.
(I lowkey wish this was a movie I’d eat this kind of twisted shit up)
Tumblr media
For his second movie I’m absolutely obsessed with the idea of putting him in a domestic psychological thriller- so proper stalking vibes. I’m thinking something like ‘You’ but almost making him a more extreme version of Joe Goldberg.
Possibly he’s maybe the main character’s co-worker, who takes the secret affection he has for her a little too far? Or even just an absolutely psychotic ex that refuses to let her go… In short this is the kind of movie that doesn’t quite give you that exhilarating rush of jump-scares, but instead tries to make you as physically uncomfortable as possible with an absolutely horrific instrumental soundtrack playing underneath it.
I’m not sure why I chose this branch of horror, but something about the way Matt looks just really did it for me, it’s so difficult to explain but his physical appearance fits the overall image of someone with an obsessive attitude towards a loved one.
Tumblr media
Three words. Found footage horror. These kind of horror movies scare me the most because of that idea of it being ‘found footage’. Equally, ‘based on true story’ horrors also mildly unsettle me just because of that idea that it’s been reimagined from a real life event.
Matt’s found footage is giving ‘The Blair Witch Project’, I can defintely see him out in the wilderness with a bunch of his really close friends, all with camcorders in their hands as they document their time camping in the woods. Until everything goes terribly wrong. And they get lost. And are picked off one by one until Matt is the only one standing.
There is no soundtrack this time, just heavy breathing, crunching leaves underneath running footsteps, the sound of the wind in the trees and the occasional blood curdling shriek of whatever is hunting them down.
(I should seriously become a director lmaoo)
Chris:
Tumblr media
Now onto Chris… most people often think Chris would thrive in a classic 90’s slasher flick- like ‘Scream’ or ‘Friday the 13th’ which I’m not going to argue against because he really would look great in one. It fits his overall vibe of being the jock boyfriend that is one of the first ones to die after him and his girlfriend stupidly break off from the group to ‘fool around’.
HOWEVER, I personally think that a game show gore horror is more his speed, it fits his skill set better. I feel like Chris would be really versatile in this kind of high-pressure environment and I’d honestly love to see him in a franchise like the ‘Saw’ movies (I want to hear him whimpering in pain) -WHAT…? Who said that??
This Chris is just an ordinary guy who works an ordinary but depressingly mundane job that does not come with the best pay… so what happens when he gets an ad mailed through his letter box promising money to whoever volunteers to try out this new and exciting game for a reality tv show? Well it’s simple, Chris would do anything for a dollar, so he signs up- not taking into account at all about how advertisements like this aren’t normally personally mailed to a person and that quite possibly this letter had actually been specifically targeted to people who were known to be in desperate need of some spare change.
The result? A wicked sadist trapping these poor people into machines and torturing them for his own personal gain.
(Fuck I love this idea)
Tumblr media
This next one is a bit of a curve ball but roll with me here… a deep sea horror. Fun fact about me, I have horrible thalassophobia, and a severe fear of sharks (I know, stupid) but I can’t help it lol, they terrify me. However, still rolling with the overall cocky/jock/playboy characterisation of Chris, I could definitely picture him being some form of deep sea diving protege that’s a cave diving expert.
He’s a side character in the thriller that is called in when they need help with locating whatever monster lurks beneath the waves. Due to his speciality in the field, he’s one of the best, and co-leads a team of divers through a cave to see if they can sus out its location.
This Chris likes to wear a lot of blue things, and he’s constantly either smugly chewing on gum or is biting a toothpick within his teeth with an air of superiority about him. The soundtrack helps with the overall gritting suspense of the movie and keeps you on the edge of your seat constantly with jump-scares around every corner.
Tumblr media
And finally, who the fuck would I be if I didn’t rope Chris into a zombie/pandemic apocalypse horror? Because this kind of movie has Chris written all over it, real TWD style. For some reason, within the whole horror genre in its entirety Chris fits the branch of gore horror the best, blood, guts and big spectacles of action packed violence. You name it, Chris looks like he could be apart of it.
In an apocalypse kind of situation, Chris would definitely be either a side character who you meet maybe about half way through the series - possibly from some other rival gang that threatens to steal your weapons - or one of the original main characters that have survived thus far. His weapon of choice is definitely either a trusty crowbar, or a classic metal baseball bat, something that he can really swing and satisfy his frenzied killing needs with.
Aesthetics wise, he wear a black bandana to keep the hair out of his face, a white tank top and army green cargo shorts. Pair them with some heavy duty black boots and you’ve got yourself a mighty attractive apocalypse survivor to spend the rest of your shortened life span with.
Author’s notes: someone needs to take my phone AND my imagination away from me immediately at this point, it’s too powerful when they’re put together. I get wayyyy too carried away with this shit lol. I have such a vivid imagination it’s insane to me, I be writing whole ass screen plays for these Jesus Christ. But anyways, I wanna see those two in a horror movie so fucking bad (if you couldn’t tell hehe). Or maybe just watch a horror movie with them… like- dw baby boy I’ll hold your hand at the scary bits hahahaha.
Again, a list of people who I think would entertain my silly little ideas: @luvmila444 @luv4kozume @luverboychris @mattestrella @mattslutt @nicksmainbitch @ellie-luvsfics @orangeypepsi @sturniolosreads @sturniolowhore @sturniolosstar @imwetforyourmom @thesturniolos @strniohoeee @rootbeerworshiper @lacysturniolo @matthemunch @1800chokedathoe @asturniolos @vecnasnose0 @meanttomeet @mattscokewhore @stursweet @breeloveschris @kvtie444 @lovingmattysposts @bernardsgf @fake-sturniolos

Something I just want to reiterate for people is that not every spirit/deity that comes into your life is a “calling”. Sometimes they come around just to remind you of something. Sometimes they show up and offer their help with something, and when that is finished, they leave. Sometimes they show interest, but it’s not a good time for you. It hurts to see people burnt out and floundering because they have 20+ deities that they’re trying to denote equal attention to. You’re just one person. For example, Alala, the daimon of the war-cry, stopped in to remind me to be louder and more assertive. Astarte showed up to point out that I wasn’t communicating with my partner well enough. Both of them did not stay. I could’ve asked them and they probably would’ve stayed but I only have so much energy and I couldn’t devote enough to either of them. Sometimes spirits show up and you find that you don’t vibe with that energy (infernals are cool and have helped me but my connection with them is weaker than other spirits). You can also simply worship them. The idea of “working with” a god has been entirely overused and I think it’s because we associate the word worship with the Christian god from our churchy upbringings. It’s okay that not all gods are equals to you.
In ancient times, Hephaestus would’ve taken precedence for blacksmiths, but he probably didn’t have a huge place in the house of traveling merchants (that’s Hermes’ domain). It’s the same in modern times. As a delivery driver, Hermes is huge for me. As someone who loves to learn and craft and has a strong sense of Justice, of course Athena is my patron. As an asexual aromantic person, Aphrodite doesn’t have much place in my life.
The gods don’t get offended when we prioritize who we are. If you are bookish and want to become wise, not just book smart, Athena is a great choice. If you are an extrovert who is looking to expand your awareness through ritualistic ecstasy, Dionysus is your man. The gods are fine without us. They like to help and be near us because it’s part of their vast, inconceivable nature.
Do you. 🤍

Ranking TMA characters attractiveness (headcanons pls I have a family) Pt. Two
Gerard Keay - 7/10
Hey, emo boy! Hey, he-hey, hey emo boy! Very tall but always has a constipated look on his face. Many face piercings, which is very hot. Hasn’t worn a color lighter than navy blue in four years. Sleeper build all the way, but the bad dye job kind of throws off some of his points. He is aesthetic more than attractive.
Helen Distortion - 5/10
A goddess of pantsuits. She rocks them. Has an afro, like a seventies four foot high afro. On top of her long freaky fingers, she also has multicolored acrylics. Wears bright colored gogo boots. She would be higher on the list if the distortion hadn’t morphed her into a Slenderman knockoff. Has those big hoop earrings too.
Michael Distortion - 4/10
Too tall, too sharp, way too clashy. At least Helen has her pantsuits, Michael wears whatever bright clothes catch his eye. Is an eyesore in the way that looking at him for too long makes your head hurt. Once wore a scarf made from Worms on a String unironically. Has thousands of bracelets on, the bright ones with beads.
Michael Crew - 7/10
Pretty average all ways round, but the lightning scar across his face gives him an exotic dangerous look. Has like the curliest hair on a white man you’ve ever seen. He looks like he would dance to weird TikTok thirst traps. Has the average attractive face of a young adult male, you know the ones with the fluffy hair, that’s him.
Jane Prentiss - 2/10 worms
Wormy hell. Her only saving feature is her long hair and body goals. The long red dress also gives vibes, I dunno what vibes they are but they’re there. Like a bug-infested, horrifying Jessica Rabbit. Holes which isn’t the worst thing but they’re full of worms. Smells like maggots.
Agnes Montague - 9/10
What did I say earlier, gingers are hot. And Agnes is literally burning. Has the longest red hair and it’s pin straight so you know, it’s flipping everywhere. She’s pretty tan and has a really prominent blush that contrasts against her cold expression. She’s skinny but with an average bust and such. She does dress like a grandma though, so points away from her.
Jared Hopworth - 1/10 eww
No. Just no. Too many bones. Too much flesh. Absurdly tall which could work for him if all his features weren’t grotesquely morphed into a monstrosity. Gives off the air of a overbloated maggot about to pop. He is canonically attractive but that was before he became a knock-off Sukuna Ryoumen. He does have monsterfucker vibes though and I’m guilty of-
Jude Perry - 5/10
Decently attractive, very butch. Bad vibes are her downfall. Everyone within a mile can tell her personality is like sewage eaten by a rat and puked into a trash can. Really rocks a leather jacket though. Has intimidating biker feel. Waxy skin is a sensory nightmare. Blegh. Probably has the soles of her combat boots lined with spikes.
Annabelle Cane - 9/10
Would you like to hear about our lord and savior, the Web? Dresses like she’s a butch lesbian in the 1920s. Rocks it though. Dark skin with the white finger waves, girl, werk. Surprisingly tall and has a looming presence. Her skin feels a little weird, like there’s little hairs. It feels like a spider. Always some kind of web motif on her clothes like, get a hobby.
Nikola Orsinov - 1/10
Ew. Once again, body goals but the skinned face and general stranger-danger vibe ruins everything she could have had going. Clown-fuckers love her though. Do not recommend or will be ritualistically skinned. Has a cool top hat.
Oliver Banks - 10/10
This man, is gorgeous. Tall, dark, and mysterious. Has like a fade into short dreadlocks that are tipped an icy grey. And diamond stud earrings. Has a singular black trenchcoat that he wears with everything. Probably has Prada boots. Has light blue eyes that look amazing with his dark skin.
Peter Lukas - 6/10
A bear, that’s all I have to say. Tall, muscular old man in a turtleneck. Me-ow. Once again, his attractiveness is effected by his entity. The whole cold and alone feeling you get when near him kind of destroys all attraction anyone ever feels but objectively, he’s nice looking. The beard does something for him though. Makes him look a little cuddlier. Definitely has a dadbod.
Julia Montauk - 8/10
Tall, Amazonian woman. She’s like 6’4. That picture that used to float around social media of the muscular woman looking down at the camera, that’s her. Wears almost exclusively camouflage. Native American. Has an undercut. Kind of has the same vibes as a dudebro though. Which isn’t great.
Not-Sasha - 2/10
You knew that annoying deja-vu feeling, if that feeling was condensed into a human body, that would be her. She whitewashed Sasha which also takes away points. Always wear annoyingly clacky heels. She’s kind of completely average.
Simon Fairchild - 5/10
An confident old man with rainbow suspenders. His attractiveness comes more from his confidence than any actual physical features. He’s balding and a little wrinkly but still fun. He does wear dentures though, that man is ancient. More like a fun grandpa than anything else.
Lemme know if y’all want someone else.

I'm here to admit that I may have developed a hyper fixation on your OCs (especially on Zerion and Sir. Valentine) so can you perhaps tell us more about them? (And other OCS)
oh hey!! great selection of characters. Makes me really happy you wanting to know more about them! I love them a lot, but Sir Valentine more, as Zerion's personality and setting is pretty nebulous still. info about them both under read more!
Zerion is some sort of cartoony super villain, heavily inspired in the night of the bald mountain monster interpretation from Fantasia(disney)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(art from 2020)
I think he's a very strong dark mage or something. Right now I have him reduced to a joke. A cartoony villain living his slice of life, but always awaiting action, the smallest spark chaos, to join in, in a world where nothing ever happens. He has his sidekick, Vampina (I think that was her name). A vampire chick who lives in the moment and is Zerion's servant, as long as he provides him with some blood every now and then
Tumblr media
(2023)
Tumblr media
(2021)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
she almost never pulls off that relaxed smile from her face, her brain usually has no thoughts more than "can i eath this?" "I can eat this" Both of them are pretty evil. I remember once i tried to sketch out a first chapter, where they had a visit of income tax department agents, coming to remind Zerion he hadn't paid his taxes, and both Zerion and Vampina made a whole intricate plan on how to get rid of them and torture them, to show the government they're not to be fucked with. Though, all their scare tactics were just confusing, failed magic tricks for the men, now tied to apparent non functioning electric chairs, looking at each other through their sunglasses, stoic faces, while confused to what Zerion is yapping about in his villain monologue, while Vampina eats a stale bread in the BG. ---------------------------------------------------------
I don't have much about Sir Valentine either, but I certainly have drawn him more. For now, His name is Sir Cannon Valentine, but we'll get to that in a bit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(both from 2020)
Tumblr media
This is the first art ever I made of him, and that's a lot of his vibe. (2019)
This MAN, is some warrior who died in his armor but is back by some whack magic, and he's impatient, easily irritated, screams instead of talking, and I've always imagined having him a strong accent. He's here to fight and go headfirst into everything bc he really cannot die.
As of 2024, Sir Valentine is Sir Cannon Valentine (you can still call him the first version), BECAUSE, besides him being reborn and inmortal, angry and ready to fucking obliterate anything in his way, now his body works as a canonball
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He went through my manic episode of redesigning many of my characters, after getting a taste of Pizza tower's cartoony characters, and became this. Much more functional, easily drawn, flowy. he just works, i can animate him in a snap of fingers. Still consistenly working to improve his design even more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I will probs change the story, but this guy is resucitated as a last resort for a war between kingdoms, as a mistake, bc they wanted to revive some other guy, but got mistaken and went to his thomb. This guy revived him, after a ritualistic dance and some lightning
Tumblr media
and then he is like "oh wait I fucked up", and Valentine is like "TOO LATE BITCH I'M FREE!!" and blasts away from him, as a cannonball, fueled by his own fire and methane gas from the catacombs he is in lol. This story is very not much constructed, but I love Sir Valentine a lot, and the characters I can surround him with. I see him falling for a bourgeoisie woman, or a princess even, bc all my stories need the romance, I'm nothing without the romance. I am also thinking of including another character of mine, Sayen, as the daughter of this death guy
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sayen previously appeared as a participant in a nsfw comic in my twt alt account lol. I love her and her design very much.

hi, hope you don't mind me asking you for a music recommendation but do you happen to know any metal songs with pipe organs, or otherwise very strong church-y vibe I guess? :3
You can't get much churchier than Баtushka. I can only vouch for the albums Litourgija and Panihida being good though. The vibes get weaker from hereon out (metal's not known for its earnest love for the church 👍) but here's what else I can think of rn.
Actual pipe organs are kinda rare but you can also find heaps of bands who do keyboards that simulate the sound (or something close to it). Gothic & doom metal in particular loves them. Check out uhh Skepticism (see also Farmakon). Ecstatic Fear, Pantheist (& O Solitude), Atramentus, Quercus, Folterkammer (more operatic). Bell Witch (Shows up in Mirror Reaper too). If you don't mind somewhat of a goofy haunted castle vibe mixed in there's also Abysmal Grief (keys ahoy) & Cultus Sanguine. Conan - Grief Sequence was an interesting tidbit from last year. And I guess, if all else fails, Powerwolf (stossgebet still one of their best songs).
For other misc. stuff there's some Virgin Black, My Dying Bride, Some Isole. Apocalypse Orchestra are more medieval hurdy-gurdy-sounding but I think that fits well with a churchy vibe. Similarly in the medieval vein, Dautha. Ecclesia are over the top, hammy as hell doom/heavy inquisition larpers. Ethereal Shroud's They Became the Falling Ash for something mournful. While Heaven Wept for more ham. Aastral, more chanting (the relentless hammering can get a bit distracting here but there are some cleaner sections). Andvaka for something slow, ritualistic & heavy. Colosseum (keys here), Funeral's Tristesse (+ Demo '99 & Burning With Regret). Omination for something apocalyptic. Am Himmel for something more amorphous. Rotting Christ. For more ''church cemetery'' try Ningizzia, Serenades, Shape of Despair. Abduction's Jehanne for even more medieval vibes. Tristitia (REALLY cheesy, might be of interest due to how heavily they lean into the aesthetic).
Kinda pushing it now: Ulver's Bergtatt is pagan bm, but has kinda 'gregorian chant'-type vocals. Thergothon. Gehenna, maybe, if you want MORE creepy synths.

things that make me less cautious/disappointed and a bit more hopefully optimistic about Trolls Band Together...just a bit
- apparently is going to be 1 hour and 50 minutes. (don’t quote me on this. i’m not entirely sure). 
at the very least we’ll a far better pacing than the sequel, which felt super rushed. this will also means more time to actual character development, develop actual emotionallity between Branch and his brothers, Poppy and Branch,etc. 
we’ll have space for breathing!! (hopefully). thank god. this franchise doesn’t really take the time to breath and let the characters breath. have moments of silence, damn it. the only time it did was in True Colors scene in the first movie. and it’s the reason why is the best scene in the franchise so far.
the only downside: apparently Tiny Diamond will have a subplot of his own. fuck, man. why? just why? really. Tiny fucking Diamond!! we have enough subplots already. he’s a useless, annoying character whose birth gives more questions than it does answers. and i bet my soul the children of the audience don’t find him as funny as Dreamworks thinks he is. every time he’ll be on screen i’ll pray it’ll be quick and go back to the real plot. i get the meaning of a stupid more lighthearted subplot, especially when the movie is advertise as an emotional journey for one of the characters like this one is supposed to be, but only if it was from a character whose actually funny, like King Julian from Madagascar, but Tiny Diamond is NOT that character. sorry.
here’s too hoping they balanced the pacing right and don’t just oversature it.
- the villans, Velvet and Veneer. 
I’m calling it now, the pair of brother and sister villans WILL BE ONE OF THE BEST THINGS OF THIS MOVIE! and i bet they’ll be The Best villans of the franchise.
they seem to have that malicious selfishness and cruelty that Chef had but hopefully with the interesting personality that Barb had. based on their concept art.
according to the directors and producer in an Annecy interview, they are described as “talent stealers who want to be pop stars quick without doing the 24/7 work that comes with having the job of a musician”.
by talent stealers they mean literally.
they literally suck the talent out of the trolls.
by sniffing them and pulling their voices out their bodies.
(i can’t stop thinking something like Ursula taking Ariels’ voice, but instead of storing it into a shell she sniffed it out of her. like drugs. they brought back the drug allegory from the first movie. yay!)
the concept of actual voice stealers who will use what they had stolen for their own selfish desires and reason while keeping the owner of that stolen voice caged down in some pit until they need them again... is terrifying. sounds very disturbing and cruel. I FUCKING LOVE IT!
i can’t wait to see how bad Floyd is having it. the whole thing will be like a horror movie. they’re keeping him as a voiceless slave! yes, please, YES!
you have no idea how i missed the slight fucked up aspects of this franchise. the first one have them but they those vibes disappeared completely in the sequel in favor of a more fun thing. which was a mistake. 
Trolls is a very poppy, campy silly fun franchise but it can get very disturbing beneath. because of the bergens. i mean, they had the pop trolls caged for a ritualistic yearly sacrifice where they literally eat them alive for pseudoscience until the trolls escaped. don’t tell me that sound like a horror movie. 
the contrast between sunshine and the dark is the core of these movies. 
they use them all the time. from Poppy and Branch relationship to the plots of all the movies. these movies love to play with parallels and constrats everywhere they can. the pop trolls and the bergens, the parallels between Bridget and Branch crushes on their respective royal figures, the trolls and the other genres of music, the parallels between Poppy and Barb plans to unify all trolls in different ways but with the same goal without realizing. and now in this one the contrasts between Branch’s brother, his bad relationship with them vs how the villan sibilings have a strong relationship. the similarities of Branch and some of his brothers (heard that JD will be like “what if Branch had never meet Poppy?” type of deal. interesting), etc. 
i just, the bergens are just the best villans for these films. because you actually take them as threat. because they are. they’re bigger, they’re stronger and they’re carnivorous. as much as i love Queen Barb, i never believe she’s a threat. just an asshole with extreme social prejudices.
- how Branch and Poppy’s relationship will be rooted in love and support.
an interview really exemplifies that Poppy will be there for Branch. how they will support each other. i really want to see their relationship now that they’re a couple to bloosom.
sure, the directors said that “Poppy doesn’t really understand. she thinks, those are your brothers, you have to be together as a family, why don’t you want that? until she realizes that just because they are Branchs’ family doesn’t mean they didn’t causes him hard. and she’ll be there for him for sure” that does sound like she and Branch are going to have a hard time at times, but i expected that. these have playful fights and get on each others nevers all the time dispite being deeply in love with each other.
everything that Poppy does is founded in wanting everyone to get along and have harmony. even though she gets tunnel visioned and will help without being ask to but she always intends for goodness. she’s such an ESFJ of a character you guys. even the bad parts of an ESFJ she has. intense like the sun and all about harmony. (while i dont believe in myers briggs is good to create and understand characters with it)
i think we’ll really see these two in their more supportive phase despite the complications. once they talk it out like the couple they are, they’ll be on full support of the other. specially Poppy towards Branch. he’ll need her.
- the animation
it looks awesome and diverse! a 2d sequence, chinese shadow puppets technique, magazines and cutouts superimpose into 3d? yes, please!
 will never in a million years be across the spiderverse level of clashing techniques and textures but it is pretty fun, diverse, different and visually appealing in its own quirky weird way. i want to see how weird will this look,
- the fact that Justin Timberlake created 5 new original songs for this and got really involved with the writing team for accurate boy band things.
Mr Timberlake thank you, i hope their good. i don’t really listen to his songs, maybe a couple. they’re not bad.
at this point make all of the songs originals, please!
i find it funny how much he’s putting into this franchise. dude’s having a good time. good for him.
- they keep discribing this film as emotional journey for Branch
deliver on this please. 
all of Branchs’ brothers will have to beg and work for his good graces. Poppy is very forgiving, is merciful and gives second changes (a bit too easily) but Branch isn’t.  he will be very staunch about that. 
if they don’t work for it their forgiveness i don’t want it.
i’m not expecting kung fu panda 2 levels of emotion, nah. but i am expecting madagascar 2 levels of emotion. emotion that is there but is enough fto make you go a bit teary-eyed for a movie whose main focus is on having fun. 
deliver enough to make me feel something.
////////////////////////////
that’s all. sorry i wrote a book by accident.  i’ll give you a hug and a cookie if you read all that.
i’m still very cautious than excited about this movie. but i know i’m going to have some fun watching it. 
okay, i’d already drained myself from hyperfixing on trolls for the time being. i’ll go back into my cave, see you in a blue moon.

May we pls have some Louisiana hc’s?? It’s completely fine if not lol 😅
Louisiana~ Gustave ‘Gus’ Jones~
Anything for you, Lovely! I have a few!
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
-Goes by Gus or Loui, don’t call him Louisiana.
-Don’t. Call. Him. Louisiana.
-Killed his gender a long time ago. He/Him in the ‘No thought behind his eyes’ kind of way. He and Flo both.
-Has an alligator named Missie, and she thinks she’s a small dog instead of being 13 feet long. He can walk her on a harness and everything.
-Her harness is sparkly purple with gold detailing, she loves it.
-Gus is very much the Guy Everyone Likes.
-If someone doesn’t like Gus, everyone around them gets very confused.
-In addition, he’s the Guy Who Knows Everyone. No matter where you go, he knows someone there (For entirely different reasons than the NorthEast).
-Has been arrested, several times, for something he has done and things he didn’t do. He gets out everytime.
-If he doesn’t smooth talk his way out like he’s leaving a family barbecue, his parents will show up to bail him out (by just walking out, no money paid).
-Great cook! Learned from his Mama who learned from her Poppa! They make minor changes throughout the decades and make changes to suit their palatte, and they each have something they’re best at!
-New York makes the best Cinnamon Rolls (have caused fights to get one, just don’t fight jn his kitchen)
-Robin makes the best Hot Chocolate (no fighting or you won’t get any!)
-Loui makes the the best bread pudding (makes it regularly, uses it as a bribe!)
-The Alibi, no matter what, when, or where– he’ll be your alibi.
-Chill and Relaxed, but Will Do Dumb Shit.
-He very rarely comes up with said Dumb Shit, but he will go along with pretty much anything.
-Knows how to use a sword, doesn’t enjoy it
-Reminds him of being a French Colony a Bit Too Much
-He will if he Absolutely Has To
-One of the more Magically Inclined States
-He has books and a ritualistic type room in each of his homes
-He passively sees spirits and ghosts
-That’s not always a good thing
-Has fought a cop
-Most States have fought cops, to be fair. Gus just takes more joy in it.
-More neutral view of humans. Few States have that type of few.

Haii! Can you make a fluffy fanfic where Jungkook and the OC are both idols, and OC walks in BTS’s practice room but she catches him simping over fan edits of her? Vise versa is fine as well. It’s perfectly fine if you can’t lol it’s a pretty cheesy request 😭 Tysm (p.s I love your writings)
Work of Art
Tumblr media
pairing; idol!jeon jungkook x idol!reader, female!reader
genre; hint of angst, mainly fluff, established relationship, age gap au - koo is 24 and reader is 29, BTS hasn’t been in the game for too long, but long enough
warnings; cursing, implied smut, koo is in love with reader to the point of being a simp but reader actually reciprocates his feelings, so not really a simp?? just straight whipped tbh tho I hate that word so he’s just really really head over heels for reader ok. also reader has CURVES so we getting a handsy koo ofc
rating; 18+
w/c; 2,400
a/n; so sorry for the wait anon, but ty for the request. it was fun to write! made a little twist to it, hope you don’t mind and still enjoy! feedback and love is always appreciated <3
It all started with a simple request from you.
You asked if he could draw you a tattoo he believed would fit your vibe, beliefs, interests, personality, etc. Knowing how amazing he was at his side hobby of drawing, his main job being one of seven of the record breaking Kpop group, BTS.
So, it should’ve been fairly simple, right?
Wrong.
When it came to you, it needed to be nothing but perfection. Anything below that just shouldn’t exist in this world. To put it simply, he was truly, madly, deeply, in love with you.
Y/N Y/L/N. A name known throughout the world long before BTS came into the scene, with you being five years his senior. Someone he looked up to during his debut days and even when he was just a trainee.
You captured his heart and he never wanted it back. He wasn’t ashamed to say, he was whipped for you.
So imagine to his surprise when you requested a meeting with them shortly after they first debuted, wanting to work on a collab with them. You wanted to work with them. Jimin had to catch him from falling on his ass with how overwhelmed he was with the news. The others just rolling their eyes and laughing, very used to the obsession the youngest had over you. However, they never believed that you would actually come to love the golden maknae yourself.
Of course, it wasn’t love at first sight. At least, not for you.
You leaned over the bathroom sink, applying the last layer of your favorite lipstick with a smack of your lips, rubbing them together. Closing the cap on the tube, you shoved it back into your white Coach clutch. Hands smoothing down your outfit of choice that matched your clutch in color, not wanting to see a wrinkle anywhere. You fluffed your naturally long, wavy, hair with your fingers, and fixed your bangs.
Then you closed your eyes, and breathed.
“You got this, y/n. You’ve done this countless times with many other big names in the industry. You are a fucking force of nature. And anyone would be lucky to work with you.”
Opening your eyes after your ritualistic self pep talk you do before every meeting, you rolled your shoulders back, staring at yourself in the mirror, and poised with confidence.
“Let’s do this shit.”
Jungkook wishes that he shared the same amount of grace and confidence that you did in that fateful meeting, but then he would be lying.
It was his fifth time standing back up from sitting down around the ridiculously elongated, black and freshly cleaned, shiny table in the middle of the conference room they would be meeting you at.
He wiped his hands on the back of his pants trying to get rid of the sweat that didn’t seem to go away, and opted for just walking laps around the table since he obviously wasn’t going to be able to sit still anytime soon.
Namjoon rubbed his forehead and let out an exhausted sigh, feeling himself somehow get even more tired just from watching the youngest do laps around him. The boys all just flew back into the states from having been on tour for six months. He wanted nothing more than to be relaxing with a nice book in bed, or admiring an abstract work of art in some random museum.
But no, due to the meeting you requested a week ago, they now all gathered at, he checked his watch yet again, 7:30 in the morning to both meet you for the first time and start the process of collaborating on a song. Don’t get him wrong, he was overjoyed with the new project, he just wished he had more time to relax before said project came around. But alas, that’s the job of being an idol.
The rest of the members tried their best to ignore Jungkook and continue on with their own shared conversations around the table. It wasn’t until Jungkook went around the table for what seemed to be the 20th time that morning did Namjoon finally speak up and say something.
“JK.” He stated simply, making the youngest stop in his tracks.
“Yes?” He looked at his leader with wide doe eyes, still feeling the caffeine from the three cups of coffee he downed earlier, jitters kicking in full force. He hoped it would make him more alert, but not this much. He could literally feel his blood vibrating within his body. Shit.
“You need to relax. Everything will be fine. You’re going to run a hole into the floor with how many times you’ve done laps around this table.” He chuckled humorously, “You should drink some water.” He suggested, trying to find a way to ease his nerves before the meeting started.
He grunted, poking his tongue out to mindlessly play with his lip piercing, before throwing his hands up in frustration and plopping down in the chair in between Taehyung and Jimin for, hopefully, the last time that morning. Resting his elbows on the table, and putting his head in his hands, palms rubbing his eyes mercilessly. The make up crew would be devastated upon witnessing the action, he’s sure. For a second, the only sound that could be heard within the room was the loud ‘thunk’ of Jungkook’s forehead hitting the top of the table in defeat, eyes closed, and tattooed arms splayed out on the sides of his head. He’s finally giving up. Now, to just relax until y/n comes in–
A knock on the door ceased all conversation and movement within the conference room. In sync, regardless of how anyone was feeling that morning, they all stood up and stood in a straight line facing the door that would inevitably be opening at any second. Posture straight and hands clasped in front of them elegantly. Namjoon took to the middle of the line, slightly stepping forward as leader, ready to greet their guest of honor.
The door opened, and there you were in all your beautiful glory.
You strutted into that conference room, demanding your presence be known to every male in the room and Jungkook swore he saw a near blinding glow radiate from your figure. The members all shared side eye glances, and they all swore they saw literal hearts in Jungkook’s eyes. An obvious smitten look encompassing his face without his knowing. Cause if he did know, he would’ve backtracked in sheer embarrassment over the fact.
You came to a stop a few feet in front of the group, the door now shut behind you to give you all some privacy. Namjoon’s formal instincts kicked in, as he led his members in an introduction they’ve done many times now.
“2, 3! Bang!” Namjoon stated in a semi loud voice.
“Tan!” The other six members said in unison without pause behind him.
“Hello, we are BTS.” Everyone, including Namjoon, said. All making the same hand gesture as well as bowing respectfully to you in greeting.
You found it extremely cute and endearing, watching them all behave so politely. You decided to bow back respectfully in response and announced yourself in kind.
“Very lovely to meet you all, my name is y/n y/l/n and I’m very humbled that you all agreed to this meeting. I look forward to working with you.” You spoke in a normal, yet equally as formal manner. You then gestured to the table behind the still standing members with a smile.
“Please, have a seat. I’m sorry if I kept you waiting for so long, traffic can be ugly in the city of angels.”
Los Angeles. One of the world’s most famous cities. The city is internationally known for being the home of the rich and famous, Hollywood, the main home of major entertainment companies, bad traffic, ethnically diverse, and the second-largest city in America.
Or as you like to call it, home.
Each member smiled in response and took they’re respective seats that they already decided on prior to your arrival. Or so they thought. Jungkook unexpectedly stealing Jimin’s chair that was closest to yours besides Namjoon’s who was on the opposite side of the table, where you were now seated at the head of the table.
Hands folded comfortably in front of you on the table, you locked eyes individually with each member. Jungkook’s being the last pair on your list. He knows for a fact that he stopped breathing in fear of accidentally doing or saying something that would make you see him as bad in your eyes. Plastering on his signature bunny toothed smile, you couldn’t help but stare adoringly at the youngest member.
You could tell he was nervous, his leg subtly bouncing underneath the table, not enough to cause a distraction, but for you to notice being at the head. So, you thought you would try and help ease his nerves by placing your hand on top of his folded ones that mirrored your own a second ago, giving them a light squeeze before you let go and directed your statement to the entire table in front of you.
“Shall we begin?”
And the rest, as they say, was history.
Back to present time, Jungkook sat on the white leather couch located next door to their rehearsal practice room, in the group break room. Laptop perched open on his lap, he leaned towards the screen as his eyes widened by the minute.
"Holy shit." he quietly exhaled into the silent room, definitely not wanting to gain the attention of anyone. Not when it could potentially make them curious as to what he was currently looking at, or rather what he was ogling at.
The answer? You. Of course. Or rather, a very different version of you. Created by one of your many fans on the internet. A version that made a not so subtle tent start to form within the confines of his baggy Nike sweats he wore to rehearsals today. Now thankful that he didn't choose the skinny jeans, where it would've been very noticeable to the eye.
Don't get him wrong, he loves you. He loves every single inch of you. From your head down to your perfectly, curvaceous, body that never failed to turn him on just thinking about it. His hands twitched at the idea of being able to worship and caress your bare body that would willingly be splayed out on your shared bed, with your most intimate parts of you exposed for the pleasure of his eyes only.
He let out a low, guttural, groan at the mental image in his head, wanting nothing more than to relieve himself. But, he had a job to do. One that was made by you, so he needed to get his shit together, and fast. You were expecting him back home soon and he still wasn't done with the sketch that was almost finished. He just needed some last minute inspiration to finish what he would call, his first masterpiece.
And this? This was exactly what he didn't know he needed in order to do so. Damn, were there some creative and talented people out there. The way they paid attention to even the littlest details, from the moles scattered across your skin like constellations meant for him to discover. To the way they captured your eyes and face in an expression of a pure blissed out state, as if they were the ones hovering of your body in the dead of night, where rays of moonlight that shone through the see through curtain were the only source of light needed.
He should be pissed that others envisioned you in such a way, yet he couldn't, because it was art.
Because you were a work of art.
And unlike these fans of yours, he was the one that was able to see you in your most vulnerable state. And that alone, made him smile to himself in pure happiness. Cause how the fuck was he so lucky and worthy of your love to begin with? He'll never know, but he'll spend every day with you like it was his last, not wanting to take a single second with you in vain.
You were his diva, his princess, his queen, his muse, his goddess.
But most importantly?
You were his wife, and the mother of his children.
Life was fucking good.
"Damn, I look sexy as fuck." You leaned over his shoulder from your position of standing behind the couch, squinting at the open laptop to verify that what you were seeing was true. It was. "Is this what I look like from your point of view when we have sex?" Tilting your head sideways, you looked at it from a different angle, thoroughly entranced by the lewd fan-made drawing of yourself.
If he thought your ego was bad before, it was skyrocketing through the roof and into the solar system now, he thought with mirth.
Smirking to himself, he realized that if he got caught in the same act when he was younger, he would be freaking the fuck out by now. Having been with you for years now, however, it only fueled the fire that was insatiable within him. He looked at you from the corner of his eyes, and pushed the laptop off his lap, setting it onto the coffee table in front of him. Leaning back against the couch, he gestured for you to sit on his lap.
You sensually walked around the couch towards him, swaying your curvy hips seductively as you bit your bottom lip between your teeth. His eyes locked onto the sway of your hips in a trance, the tent growing in his pants by the minute.
You sat on his lap, legs on either side of his hips. His hands instantly went to grip the junction between your hips and thighs with a vice grip that made you inwardly groan when he ground his bottom half into yours deliciously.
"Yeah, that drawing of you is sexy." he stated the fact aloud.
"But you, baby?" he said with a lust filled gaze, hands now trailing along your various curves with a vengeance.
"You're a fucking masterpiece." he whispered into your slightly open mouth, before kissing you hungrily.
If his body was a paintbrush, he created colors on your skin like you were the canvas.

ok i loved that cemeterything post about the different types of spellcasters. it actually reminded me of your original short stories (or two of them at least), taking place in that world with the soul-tearing magic. since you’re my fave ganondorf writer and the resident magician around here, what’s your take on the way ganondorf from the various titles “does magic” (interpret that as you’d like since that could mean a lot of things i guess) and what it says about him in your opinion. do you see differences across the titles?
no pressure to answer this for us, just got me thinking and i’m very curious to hear your takes if any on this topic
ooh interesting! I feel like... of the ones I've actually watched a playthrough of (I really want to play/watch the early games with Ganon sometime, esp ALttP) Ganondorf's magical body language is theatrical and the forms of magic he chooses are strongly inclined toward flaunting his upper hand, so to speak. He doesn't need to fight you, he has phantoms and puppets to do that. Okay, maybe he'll fight you, but he's going to lob magic at you with extreme drama, from a distance, probably hovering even though he's already twice your height at least, because he's an asshole. (And like, look at Twinrova. It's obvious where he gets it from.)
To me, it speaks heavily of either disdain or the need to pretend at it. When Ganondorf gets genuinely angry or decides he's going to treat an opponent seriously, he gets in there with a sword/goes beast mode/both. There's some variation--OoT opts more for the theatrical drama vibe, whereas to me TP reads as still theatrical, but more gritty in energy, colored by him having been through a(nother) war and gotten older--but Ganondorf's magic is just all about showing the way he views himself. he is Better Than You and he is going to throw lightning balls at you about it.
(An indulgent side-note into the way I've expanded on his magical... body vocabulary? in more intimate settings :P (but seriously, just. indoors. with more nuance than throwing lightning.) AtG Ganondorf, whether it comes across or not, uses gestures that I picture as stage-magician-y--a lot of close focus on his hands, gestures that read like distraction or like he's handling something invisible, making it appear or vanish. He's at Peak Duplicity in that fic, working on a very small stage, so it just felt right. and though i'm still working with getting him onstage, lol, my initial take on our hearts Ganondorf is that his magic both has a more... science-y and/or ritualistic vibe, reflecting his princess scholar in a tower type situation, and his magical gestures tend to be expressed with his whole body--more grounded and straightforward than AtG. anyway! thanks for the opportunity to ramble :P)

20 questions for fic writers
I was tagged by @bluedaddysgirl! Sorry this took so long. ;;
I'll tag: @withercrown @a-aristippus @lacertae-dreamscape @aevallare @loveoaths @kevystel @frogunderarock @wolveria @dreaminghour @bright-thorn @kitewithfish
And anyone else who wants an excuse to do this please tag me I'd love to read your answers!! 🥺💖💖💖
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
134.
2. What's your total A03 word count?
444,065
3. What fandoms do you write for?
I started my writing days in Overwatch and most of my fics are from that era, but most recently, I've written for Star Wars, Baldur's Gate 3 and Arcane.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
A New Era - First Jayvik fic I wrote, and somehow it's at the top of the jayvik ao3 tag by kudos even though it's mindrot I wrote between episode breaks. Sorry long form jayvik writers ;;
Lost Time - life-affirming jayvik sex after the s1 finale. I'm just now realizing that all my top kudos fics are jayvik LMAO
Opposites - jayvik fic where someone talks up Viktor at a party and Jayce gets jealous.
Arcane Ficlets - my randomly assorted Arcane stuff I wrote via tumblr asks. All jayvik too 😂
Warm Heart - Viktor has cold hands but Jayce knows just how to warm him up.
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I try to! But sometimes it takes me months to get back to people. Once the inbox number ticks up I get a little nervous ;; which only makes the problem worse!
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I tend not to write anything that ends too angsty. I have one or two that have a sort of bad-end vibe. Usually I'll write an angsty ending then delete and rewrite. LOL
Maybe this silco/viktor fic: Back Down? Since Viktor knows he shouldn't be messing around with Silco but he's so drawn to him.
Runner up: one of my ramyatta fics Stargazing because it shows the difference between their past relationship and the present at the end, where they are no longer together. t _ t
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Probably Encore, since I wrote it because Outer Wilds canon endings beat me up so badly. LOL
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Very rarely!
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
Almost always. Any kind, basically. LOL I love pining and unestablished relationship like crazy, and both characters just falling into sex with each other. Blow jobs, possessiveness, breeding kinks, ritualistic sex, size difference, voyeurism, smell stuff, sex pollen, outfits... a VERY wide range. 😂
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written?
I almost never write them. I think I have written a few fics that just takes characters and puts them into another game's setting, but that's about it.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of?
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Yes! Most I had one of my ramyatta fics translated into chinese. I've also had my only symbrock fic made into a podfic.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Not really. I've done a fic with bluedaddysgirl that was Thrawn/Cad Bane, but mostly I collaborate with artists to do illustrations of my work. I did some RPing back in the day, but none of that's going to see the light of day LOL
14. What's your all-time favorite ship?
Probably genyatta? But honestly, I have so so many. Obimaul also has a special place in my heart.
15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
My last year's nanofic. It was an AU where Bo-Katan never saved Obi-Wan from Mandalore, so he remained Maul's prisoner. It was going to be a what if where Maul realizes he doesn't know what to do with Obi-Wan now that he's finally exacted his revenge, and they would slowly fall in love while doing powerplays the whole time. LOL It was a bit weird because I had to write it so fast, so a lot of the fic was just Savage and Obi-Wan interacting, so it almost made it seem as if they would be the better pairing TBH. It just needs so much reworking and IDK if I have the power. It probably just needs an entire re-write.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I feel I'm very good at condensing ideas into short word counts. I also think my sex scene writing, specifically my dirty talk, is pretty good! That's one of those things that I can't stand to read if it's bad in fanfic, so I try to make what they say as in character as I can. 😳
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Writing anything longer holy shit. I'm really terrible at it because as soon as I have to deal with pacing it's a death sentence for my motivation. 💀💀💀
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
It can be done well? But only if you are a fluent speaker. I personally don't do it because I'm an idiot who only knows one language, and I don't want to mess up the mood of writing by accidentally making an embarrassing gaff in another language.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
In my life? Probably Kingdom Hearts. On my ao3 account: Dragon Age: Inquisition.
20. Favorite fic you've ever written?
Definitely Polite Company, my Obimaul reverse AU fic. It's the longest thing I've ever written and posted. SUCH a comfort fic to me, and it was a blast to work on. There's just something so fun about writing Jedi Maul that I still can't get over it. The ideas kept coming for that fic which almost never happens for me, and somehow it was fairly well received, which I'm just so ridiculously grateful for. I'm always surprised at how much Obimaul isn't a main pairing for Obi-Wan when they have such ridiculous chemistry. Not even 600 fics on all of ao3 for them💀💀💀 A crime!!

I’m not a “Vulcans have tails” truther, that’s just not the vibes I get from them
I do think they should have claws tho, I think it’d fit with them being this species that’s super strong and fast and intelligent, that apparently don’t need much sleep, and are just the ultimate predators that do everything in their power to not seem like such, being vegans (some canon says that they can eat meat but it’s a choice not to, so I’m going with that version of canon), controlling their emotions, trying to solve problems without violence (except for ritualistic violence in certain cases) etc etc etc
Just. essentially they do all this PR with their images to seem as non predatory as they can, then you look at their hands and there’s just. straight up claws
Also the intimacy involved with hands regardless of the danger that comes with claws?? Love it

I would love to hear more about your Angel !!
Tumblr media
oKAY SO ANGEL
his tag on here is angel (train’s version) for reference. also my old rp blog for him is @aithrioch which has some things like headcanons and aesthetics.
Okay gonna make an effort to not repeat myself though I also can’t completely remember what I’ve already said so B)
More emphasis on his time homeless. Like it’s brought up in more when it makes sense and it becomes especially important in ATS and becomes a point of bonding and discussion between him and Gunn.
Dating Buffy is probably his biggest lapse in judgement since wandering into an alley to get laid in the 1700s and it shows. Like he walked in knowing this was a bad idea, saw every red flag and did it anyway. It’s not a reemergence of Angelus behavior it’s Peak Liam Nonsense and it’s left his relationship and feelings towards Buffy very complex and fucked. I think from like BTVS S4/ATS S1 on his primary feeling towards her isn’t really love but guilt. Guilt over how much he fucked up her life and not just as Angelus but you know, as an adult engaging romantically with a teen.
Angelus has more of a Hannibal Lector vibe.
Heavy substance abuse in BTVS as part of coping. When we see him in btvs he’s literally JUST stopped living on the streets in the Depths of Despair. So in btvs S1-2 he’s smoking and drinking heavily to try and make it through another moment on this bitch of an earth. The drinking isn’t as obvious an issue until Buffy’s with him more. Ironically angelus drinks and smokes a normal ass amount because he’s not Lamenting and angel stops doing both in s3 since you know.... fresh outta hell and all that. don’t worry he’s back to chain smoking when he gets into ATS lol. It becomes a Running Issue with him and his Very Human and Lung Dependent Staff.
He listens to the smiths, the cure and similar music. He’s that kinda person. yes. also still listens to barry mannilow. he’s a man of many facets.
He’s Very Normal about Darla. So Normal.
Angel(us) has a Complex around his visual age and how it tends mean that he isn’t given much respect. Part of what fueled his actions back in the day was clout building so he’d get some fucking respect and stop being treated like a baby faced loser.
Circling back to the Buffy thing he realizes in ATS S2 that he perpetuated the cycle of abuse/grooming with her that Darla perpetuated on him. Because Darla 10000% groomed and manipulated him.
Darla and Angel have a Louis and Lestat vibe (but like..... more the new series version of them you know????)
Falls back into Catholicism after his time in hell for the comfort of it. he was born in 1700s Ireland where church was the center of life and Catholicism is like, the most ritualistic version of Christianity. It’s the familiarity and ritual/schedule of it that are comforting/helpful for him, less so the religious stuff. Even so ats needed more catholic stuff in it. Catholic ideology is a staple of angel’s thinking, the bedrock of it really. Literally all this shit about sin and redemption and shit is so aggressively catholic. He’s literally out here looking for a priest who can tell him how many Hail Marys he needs to say to atone for the Atrocities.
Is actually very jealous of Spike later into BTVS/ATS. When Spike’s hanging out with the Scoobies n shit just fine because Spike’s capable of that kind of interaction without a soul while Angel has one and still struggles with it. It’s one of the few things in which he gets jealous of Spike over, how easy it is for him to straddle the soul/morality/dark impulse control chasm. Like it’s very unlikely he’d ever say it out loud or tell the Scoobies but Angel knows just how difficult chip or no chip some vampires would find it to be even remotely civil let alone actually work with them. it frustrates him endlessly that Spike has it so easy.
Yes even as Angel he DOES have an EGO.
Angel(us) is just a metric ton of complexes in a trenchcoat. ATS is just a guided tour through them.
In my brain he’s a mix of Marcus from Deadly Class, Stefan from The Vampire Diaries and Hannibal Lector from the Movies and Shows. Along with some Columbo and Stock Lovecraft Protagonist for flavor.
He’s so pretentious, so lifeless and pallid. He’s like a drive thru attendant with an MFA in fine arts during a graveyard shift.
okay this is all I’m doing on this for now as opposed to the fucking NOVEL for Xander because I don’t have the energy/brain power for it now and if I waited for that to happen to write another novel it could be another 80 years lol

I beg for rambles on Seadew. They captivate me. Ultimate Blorbo.
(If it’s cool to ask too, since I saw last ask, how would the group react to Zefara? :’D Throw nice possessed lady to the wolves here lmao —)
((Hope the day gets better Sil 💜 love ya))
!! :D Okay okay thank you for that question :D Seadew's full name which i might have left out of the list is Seadew Herber of Willowood. They are from a ritualist witch family, which means they learnt so-called ritual magic that involves a lot of preparation - making a magic circle of salt, maybe, lighting candles, similar things. This is considered 'folk magic' as opposed to noble magic.
They are the healer of the group, but they are by no means the emotional center. (That's Raena or Ranril, I think.) They have the vibes that they will heal you with their strongest comfrey salve, give you the tea to drink twice dayly to ease the pain, and have you sit in a circle of dried grass while channeling magic to speed the process up, but be very angry about it. You better appreciate their magic. They will not comfort you about healing you, they will lay out the facts, and threaten bashing your head in if you make it worse by being careless and straining the injured part.
The thing they use to bash things in is a quarterstaff. A big fuckoff staff as long as them, made of very hard, durable wood, topped with a big fuckoff rose quartz. That is both a tool for their rituals and a tool to fight. They bash their enemies' heads in. They aren't trained to do that, exactly, but now that they are in the wilderness, they are quite effective.
The staff is a family heirloom, it's durable and probably hundreds of years old. It's from a time when their family had to go to war, and carefully guarded it until it was needed again. It's a ritual tool and a bash-head-in tool.
They also use hearing aids!! and those are also family hand-me-downs. Kind of gross, but the materials they were made of are very nice and hard to get, so when the original owner died, they were only cleaned and not thrown away. There are other options, but all of those break very easily; this pair is the in-universe equivalent of one of those soviet union era sewing machines that still work. They need to be re-enchanted for every owner, there were a few of those so far. There are a fair few HoH people on the family.
They are working class, and they are payed absolutely atrociously to the point when they have to hold down three jobs to get anywhere. This is why they wanted to go to the expedition: that would give them a bunch of money very suddenly that would help their living situation a lot. One of the thee jobs is waiting tables, I know of another where they are manufacturing something in a factory setting, and i didn't make up the third one yet.
Their attitude around nice things is to get them whenever they can. They don't see much of a better future, so whenever something little is on the horizon, they get it. Free food is a surefire way to lure them in. They do also regularly just swipe every scrap of leftover from the café they can.
Whew. I think this is it. Here you go, Seadew, the tired healer.
(Please send a separate ask for the Zefara question, and tell me how she'd look/act when meeting the team, because this is very long :D)

Kensi : What is your OC's most painful memory? & Where does your OC feel most comfortable?
Thank you for the bundle of asks. I will answer these as I get the inpsiration. You're an absolutely lovely treasure as always <3 <3 <3
Kensi's most painful memory will always be losing Cea and Kiz, and then later Calixae back in the time of the Flameseeker Prophecies. Cea wanted to go back to Ascalon to see who was still there and aid in any evacuations and Kiz wanted to see Ascalon, even if it had been nuked into an unrecognisable mess. Unfortunately they got jumped in Diessa Lowlands on their way back by a ton of charr and both perished, but not being taking down several dozen charr between them. Their corpses were later found by Ruby and Ash and they were taken back to Ascalon City to be buried. Kensi (then Zoe) okayd the mission after a few of the other sisters protested saying it was too dangerous. The family should have made the trip together, but Zoe was keen to deal with some other issues, so she holds a lot of guilt for that. The rest of the family just blame the charr.

Cea and Kiz from GW1. I can't find any images of Calixae, just the rit that replaced her. Woops.
When Calixae, the newly found ritualist member of the family died in Imperial Sanctum, Zoe again took full blame for this. At this point she took an absence from the family and offered herself to Grenth for punishment. Grenth had other ideas and uses for her.
As for her comfortable places, it's places of worship and rest. While the gods may have left Tyria, she still feels serenity and peace in temples and holy places. They're quiet places for prayer and reflection for most and it's a place she often just vibes in.

Re: the ask about Fran's hair, both absolutely fuck and I love them both but do you remember if you cut your hair or grow it out? Did Maya ever like playing with your hair? I assume Maya is touchy, am I right? Did she ever do something that confused you at first but you immediately grew just so incredibly fond of? Did Maya ever steal your clothes or your whip????? Also very important serious question: Maya wears flip flops with a slight platform but can she walk in heels? This ask has been sponsored by the Franmaya Agenda thanku :)
FRANMAYA RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH
ok i don't have a lot of post-trilogy memories unfortunately (we haven't got there yet so im dghdghgf nothing has shaken loose) but i will try my best
Re: the ask about Fran's hair, both absolutely fuck and I love them both but do you remember if you cut your hair or grow it out?
I DON'T AND IT MAKES ME CRAZY, i feel like i at least shaved the sides at one point??? but i don't think i remember having super short hair at any point.
Did Maya ever like playing with your hair? I assume Maya is touchy, am I right?
yes yes yes yes yes maya is ALL physical touch. maya will stop breathing if she stops touching someone. shes always holding pearly's hand or punching wright's arm or kissing whatever part of me is available. she liked to ruffle my hair more than she liked to play with it but every once in a while she'd tuck a lock behind my ear and i'd combust into flames while she laughed her big goofy laugh at me.
Did she ever do something that confused you at first but you immediately grew just so incredibly fond of?
i think everything she's ever done ever applies here. this girl and i exist in completely different worlds. i am madly in love with her.
Did Maya ever steal your clothes or your whip?????
she stole my clothes often but usually only 1.) to make fun of me or 2.) to have something when i was gone, boyfriend hoodie vibes and all that. we spent a lot of time apart due to work and it was not uncommon for us to steal like a shirt or nightgown or something to cuddle up in while we weren't together, it was kind of ritualistic.
she wouldn't ever touch my whip cause i think she knew from the beginning it was a comfort object but at least once she did ask if she could crack it just for funsies fgfshf. her form was the sloppiest thing in the world and it took her like 6 tries to even get a proper one out and it was hopelessly endearing. i am madly in lo
Also very important serious question: Maya wears flip flops with a slight platform but can she walk in heels?
not at all, pretty sure i saw her try once and she fell on her ass. she had a bunch of mia's clothes that she couldn't bear to get rid of for sentimental reasons and i recall her putting on the heels for about ten seconds and being like LMAO NAH

YELLOWJACKETS SEASONS 1 & 2 REWATCH
Note taking + theories!
Tumblr media
EPISODES 1 AND 2
(spoilers for season 2 too!)
1) Misty was probably stalking Nat in episode one, but Nat was high as fuck so it seemed she dissapeared instead of only going back into the bushes when Nat blinked or something. Or Misty wasn't invited but she investigated™ and went to the party anyway, found Nat, THEN stalked her.
2) the feast scene features seven tall Ewoks and the Antler Queen. I'm guessing the one underneath that veil is actually Nat, which makes sense after Lottie crowns her in S2 and also. Lottie wouldn't just fucking glue bits of her own hair into that mantle.
3) Speaking of which the Antler Queen mantle is either cloth or white short fur which could be indicative of new white whatever-the-fuck-y'all-call-that-giant-ass-stag appearances. And if that is true, they're eating human flesh not out of necessity, but because they WANT to. Those extra fur coats everyone was wearing at the feast scene should also point to that, since the cabin caught on fire along everything INSIDE it (aside from a few pieces the girls salvaged, which I noticed where mostly normal blankets, not fur ones. The sheer ammount of furcoats in that scene and the ritualistic manner with which it was conducted from beginning to end... Reeks more of cannibal girlcult than Starving Need Food Now to me.)
4) If you watched House of the Dragon you already know that one, but white stags are often prized as a a king's game–said to bring luck and power to whomever kills it. Nat tries to kill one but fails, then finds it dead, frozen on the lake. That could be read as both a sign of royalty as well as a bad omen. You didn't kill the Good Things Come To Whomever Kills Me creature. It died on its own so you get no extra luck!
5) Bet my ass the last girl to be killed will be Akilah. Aside from our main cast gorls, she's the only one actually shown having fucked up hallucinations revolving death and the consumption of a loved one's corpse (in that case, the mouse). (I'm hoping this is true because I really dig her vibe).
6) Shauna's very obvious Jackie-induced sex craze. Like girl. How horny where you in the pilot that you came THAT fast?? WITH ONLY JEFF *I'M 17 AND BAD AT SEX* SADECKI OF ALL PEOPLE??? Get a grip Shipman.
7) Speaking of queens (shauna is MY Antler Queen alright fuck what the Wilderness™ thinks) lets not forget our Beehavioural analysis for the girls, because despite having an Antler Queen yellowjackets are still pretty much bees (or "predatory social wasps from North America" according to my trustworthy bud Wikipedia) and we have a few plot relevant factoids about them: Yellowjacket drones (males) quickly die after mating with the queen (like Addam did lol) and Yellowjacket queens are the only ones in the colony to overwinter (like, hibernating but kind of permanent ig. Which could translate into why during the height of winter Lottie's powers seemed to weaken all of a sudden, leading her to crown Natalie). Other than that some colonies might present a sucession of queens, as the last one dies some other virgin queen (they literally call them that don't sue me) will take her place and lay eggs. Virgin queens may kill other emerging or old queens (so Shauna will kill Lottie or the other way around) to assert their dominance/broaden their chances of survival.
8) Misty draws the first blood by cutting Ben's leg off. She's also the one to break the black box. If cycles are cycling she will be the first one to suggest keeping the hunt going even though they have other sources of food, since she's already hinted at liking it a tad too much by capping Lottie when she says the cannibalism thing is going too fucking far.
9) When Jackie complains about menstrual pains later on I'm pretty sure she wasn't being dramatic. On episode 2 Shauna is going through someone's luggage, finding Midol (which according to Google it's supposed to treat menstrual cramping and also dobles as an analgesic. So shit's strong). Now, do I know for sure the luggage is Jackie's? No. Does that white and blue shirt looks a lot like the one she wears afterward, and Shauna mussing up her stuff in front of her would make more sense then them just stealing shit right off the bat? YES. Misty probably asked who was analgesics and Shauna already knew Jackie did so they went there to get it.
10) Grown up Taissa has red eyes that occasionally turn black as they were when she was younger. Also Sammy's drawings portray her as having both red and brown eyes:
Tumblr media
(the pic is hot shit but it's episode 2 about 35:00 and something in case someone want to see for themselves). Also also! If you link each eye color to one character (such as Shauna and Lottie having very dark eyes, while Nat's are blue and Misty's green) you get the surviving Yellowjackets + Travis.
11) Sammy predicted Taivan (is the kid having visions?? Tf is going on with him fr) (by the way the three guys over someone's bed in the right corner there looks an awful lot like Nat's kidnapping. Three people carrying her and one standing by)
Tumblr media
12) Jackie's secret being about staring at Bruce Willis' wang is the lesbianest hetcomp attempt I've ever heard. Critics' opinions say the movie is bad but I remember thinking Jane March makes the absurdity of the plot worth it when I watched so. Yeah Jackie sure you wanted to see Bruce willie.
