Taking a break from my accomplishments, to celebrate the accomplishments of others. These were the most memorable fics I read that was updated in 2023! I am quite certain I've forgotten some REALLY awesome ones too, so feel free to reblog and add on!
Sunny's 2023 Fic Rec
BAGGINSHIELD
G Rated Fics:
Happy Accidents by Fantasyinallforms- This is one of my favorite modern universes! Just super sweet, complete with idiot in love and clumsy Thorin.
Of Hobbits and Dwarves by Wannano- This is just a really sweet story where Bilbo takes in a family of dwarves and they change his life completely.
Stoneborn by Porphyrios- In all the cabbage patch hobbit/stone born dwarf fics, this one just really stands out all on its own with Bilbo's utter bafflement of the situation at hand.
T Rated Fics:
The Antidote by Atisenia- This is such an interesting premise to a sort of Sleeping Beauty AU.
My Ego Dies by Conkers- This was the unrequited pining but not actually unrequited fic I absolutely 100% NEEDED.
Secret Angel by DomesticGoddess- This just such a fascinating AU with Thorin being an angel in a secret research facility and the twist ending was awesome!
There and Not Back Again (or, The Saving of Erebor) by femmebingley- The dwarven politics in this fic is astounding, and all the characters are so richly enhanced.
When Darkness Shines Brightest by LordOfTheRazzles- This unique take on a Persephone/Hades AU has some of the best character introspection in the fandom.
M Rated Fics:
All Ahead, Full Sail by durinsheir- This is the mermaid AU of mermaid AUs! Full of action and adventure and pirates!
Erebor Books&Cafe by thorinsbeard- Thorin is so cute in this modern soulmate fic that I can't wait to see more of!
The Kitchen Thief by mordelle- "Oh no, it's the nutty baker." BEST LINE EVER!
Makes the Whole World Blind by Chrononautical- This was such a good POV swap for a one-shot I absolutely ADORE!
Show Me My Silver Lining by BiSquared- I am still searching for a male cover of Jolene that would fit to this fic. ALL THE KUDOS!
Stranded by Ticklesivory- I really enjoyed the Sci-Fi/Fantasy clash of this fic and will be here for any and all additions to this fic!
E Rated Fics:
Bruises on the Heart by thehufflepuffhobbit- Of course Robyn never lets us down in smut, but this little soulmate AU was exactly what I was looking for with this kind of trope!
Everybody's After Love by Isclanel- I think I've reread this fic 3 times, the characterizations are just perfect in this modern best man meets the best man fic.
If You Lend a King a Hand by Cranbear- This just so well done with a PWP beginning that grows and adapts to the characters and the interactions and the relationships.
Intertwined by badskippy- I absolutely neeeeed to know the ending to this messed up Greek tragedy of a fic (affectionate).
Nothing Gained by Not Gathering Roses by rosasynstylae- Promiscuous hobbits are always a good idea, even better when they have tails.
Of Palaces and Ruins by livelongandgetiton- In the process of rereading this incredible slowburn modern AU.
Through the mist (I find you) by MiraHerondale- I can't get enough of the 'Thorin has amnesia' trope and when you add on a slice of angst and a dash of guilty smut you get this masterpiece!
Not Rated Fics:
Ambassador to Madness by SunnyRose- Because I might as well sneak a self-rec in there while I'm at it. XD

im gonma make bride of discord relevant againt i sweer
anybody else remember bride of discord (and daughter of discord) by that disneyfanaticbunchofnumbers on youtube? yeah i freaking loved it as a kid. still do now honestly, it was honestly one of the cornerstones of my childhood and it's my favorite thing to listen to while i work. i call it my soap opera.
that being said 90% of the morals are AWFUL holy shit. i still appreciate it because it's heartwarming as a passion project and comparably more mature piece of fanwork considering the my little pony fandom at the time; but the toxicity between discord and fluttershy? the homophobic undertones in the sequel?? the treatment of rarity as a character??? THE APPLESPIKE??????
that shit has GOT to GO. so im writing a fix-it-fic for my own self indulgence lmao. i'll be posting my progress and some tidbits here, but i'm not even halfway done with transcripting the episodes and planning out my changes, so it'll be a long while before the final drafts are ready to post. when they are, they'll be posted on archive of our own, but until then, everyone and anyone is more than welcome to offer changes that they would like made, or factors of the story they'd like to be kept. theres no guarantees that they'll be included, but it's still so fun talking about this thing with other people, and it's always good to engage with others in this phase of the process. below is a list of major to minor notes i've already got in mind.
I want to keep the serious tone of the story. By far I think the thing that kept me attached to this series for so long is how the mood differs from so much of the fandom back then. the stakes in the beginning were legitimately high, the conflict took itself seriously, and the production quality was through the roof. this is the audiodrama's hallmark, it's iconic and must be kept in mind when contemplating changes.
Many smaller changes must be made to the Fluttercord plot in order to make it healthier and more natural: the infantilization of fluttershy, discord's overbearingness and harrassment, literally nearly all of episode 9. red flags. i think the biggest issue is that the character arcs are based more on shipping and tropes than the actual characters. there's nothing wrong with this in moderation, but in this case, the relationship is unbearably toxic. the arcs in the rewrite will be a lot more character-focused.
Instead of applejack and spike being the secondary romance, i'm going to make it applejack and rarity. yes i do ship rarijack, but this decision was primarily made in order to get two birds with one stone with applejack and rarity's depictions in the series and its sequel. free my girl rarity and leave my boy spike alone :(
Take pinkie pie more seriously as a character. this isn't just a problem with BOD but also the actual show FIM. she just gets annoying sometimes and her lack of depth really irked me in BOD.
GET RAINBOW DASH AWAYYYY FROM SOREN GET THAT OUT OF HERE
i feel like fluttershy's "tragic" backstory explaining her hesitance as being adored is kinda underwhelming. so is her insecurity, her insecurity not expanding beyond the "doesn't know she's beautiful" trope just rubs me the wrong way, she deserves more depth than that.
discord. discord. the relationship is so one-sided to discord that i think i can only name 2 things he legitimately done for fluttershy's happiness (both of which he lowkey ruined not a day later. most of their "bonding" scenes are just him trying to distract her from her tragic reality and her desires by doing stuff he wants to do, which btw is a manipulation tactic so GET THAT OUT OF HERE)
theres quite a few weird undertones and stereotypes. the pedo and "nice girl" stuff with applespike is the most obvious one, but theres also some lowkey misogynistic quips thrown in there and, although this might not have been an issue at the time, zecora does fit the "wise black woman" trope that's been pointed out many times in recent media, so i do need to adjust how she's portrayed.
another problem that FIM also commits, but rainbow dash just feels so mischaracterized as an element of loyalty at some points. i want to make her loyalty more prominent, to the point of putting her career on the line because she couldn't abandon fluttershy or her friends when they were breaking down. that would be real sweet.
i dont know if im also going to rewrite daughter of discord, i might consider it after im finished with this one, though. also i promise i write way better than i do here when i try lol

Saw IV and V thoughts after my Saw Saturday movie viewing experience last night:
Really glad we got some new characters introduced into the series. It breathed a lot of life into things I feel like
Finally got to meet Hoffman and Strahm let’s gooooo! I knew that these were popular characters and honestly they did not disappoint
I cannot believe that John Kramer ate a fucking tape before dying. My friend and I were discussing how he did that so cleanly without gagging or choking and our only explanation is that he’s a throat goat
Rigg’s whole trial was rough man, but it was actually very interesting. Basically “You’re obsessed with saving everyone, so the only way you can win this gauntlet (and save your friends) is to let it go.” I think that this series of traps was MUCH more well done than the series of traps Jeff went through in 3 and they also did each feel like they were testing different aspects of the same “sin” so to speak.
Favorite of those trial traps was probably the one with the husband and wife and them being impaled. I thought it was clever in its theme and its conceit. Sometimes I look at some of these saw traps and go “okay so somebody just thought of the most fucked up thing they could for the shock value” but this was not one of those so I enjoyed that
The iceblock trap though? Amazing idea and execution on that shit. Just the concept of a melting block of ice slowly hanging someone while that melted ice water fills a pool that will eventually touch another person, thereby electrocuting them because there’s a current running through the pool? Very very cool. Plus the added mechanism that kills you if someone (Rigg) walks through the door. Very scary but very good
The puppet still makes me laugh. Him just sitting on the chair before (unfortunately) blowing up at Perez got me. My friend is convinced that I need a little Saw puppet for my apartment now, though I think having the actual thing and seeing it irl might freak me out
Not sure I *needed* to learn more about John’s past before his diagnosis and his descent into becoming Jigsaw, but I also didn’t absolutely hate it. I liked getting to see his ex wife at least and get an insight into his interpersonal relationships
I’m 50/50 split if I like John’s first victim being someone who personally wronged him and ruined his life. On the one hand, I think it does great to kinda show his own hypocrisy in all of this. He says it’s not emotional and these traps are meant to save his victims, and he does at least give him a way out, it did not seem like he really wanted to reform him and that’s interesting to me. On the other hand, I don’t think the movie presents this action or putting him in the trap this way so??? Yeah
My new motto for these movies is “If I don’t see you get murked on screen, you’re still alive somewhere.” Because I was *positive* Eric was dead before they revealed him, but, well, he’s certainly dead now I guess lol
The reveal this movie that it was all taking place at the same time as 3 and that Hoffman is Jigsaw’s apprentice was amazing. Absolutely brilliant, no notes at all
I really liked how Saw 4 and 5 basically felt like a TV show in that they were very obviously meant to be viewed together/feel like one continuous story. I’m assuming that production wise the studio knew that they had 4 and 5 guaranteed so they could leave some stuff for the next movie which I appreciated
(I’m assuming they knew they were at least getting a 6 too because we didn’t get any answers for what was in that box Jill got 👀)
Hoffman carrying that little girl out of the warehouse and being like “We were the only survivors :((“ only for Strahm to get wheeled out on the gurney literally seconds afterwards was so funny
Speaking of, I can’t believe Hoffman didn’t take Strahm’s pen from out of his pocket during the water cube trap. He took all his other stuff but it’s weird he overlooked that. Granted, I doubt that he knew that Strahm would perform a tracheotomy on himself but wow
I liked the backstory we got with Hoffman and how he came to know Jigsaw. The idea of a copycat killer designing his own “trap” but it really just being a way to murder someone he wants revenge on was marvelous. Then the whole part with John kidnapping him and teaching him his ways was also cool
(Hoffman tied up with the shotgun nestled right underneath his neck? Unfortunately kinda hot)
The trap gauntlet for the five people was fine. The first trap I was like “oh my god he’s telling you to all work together! Just go get your keys one by one or have someone get their key, unlock, and then get the next person’s after they’re unlocked” at least for that one though I can see why they panicked. The second one they had no excuses lol I literally said out loud “you can definitely fit at least two people in a cubby hole”. That one seemed sooo obvious, too obvious to at least not give it a try. I didn’t totally hate the set up though, just moreso me getting mad at horror movie characters lmao
And I get Hoffstrahm now lmao. Saw IV I was like “? They barely interacted what’s this?” And then we got the whole cat and mouse game in Saw V and went “Oh yup. There it is. Theres the dynamic.” Especially with the whole glass coffin bit at the end
Speaking of the glass coffin I loved that scene. Just the wasy Strahm shoves Hoffman into the coffin and you can see Hoffman start to gloat and taunt Strahm from behind the glass because he’s sealed his own fate? Amazing. No notes. I did have to look away at the end of the trap though because watching the Saw movies has taught me I cannot handle broken bones, especially when they are very prominent. As soon as I saw Strahm start pushing on the walls I went “I know where this is going” and dutifully turned my head away
Anyways Hoffman is an interesting new antagonist! I’m curious what’s gonna happen next in this little murder soap opera. Honestly, I hope that Agent Perez gets out of the hospital and fucks up Hoffman. She finds out that Strahm is supposedly Jigsaw, goes “wtf no I could never believe that” and starts trying to pursue the real killer
Current Saw movie ranking (giving this because I gave it to my friend after discussing Saw V and my thoughts on the franchise overall)
Saw (The og and the goat, don’t think anything will really topple this one. I was glued to the screen the entire time and loved how this one really focused on Adam and Lawrence, the people in the trap, rather than the killer himself. I feel a lot of future installments lack compelling trap victims which is kinda a shame)
Saw V (I liked the story of Hoffman in this and the cat and mouse between Hoffman and Strahm a lot)
Saw IV (This was a really well done trap gauntlet for the main portion of the plot and the ending reveal was so awesome. Lots of adrenaline pumping for this one, but it did get lowered because I’m still meh on a lot of the John Kramer additional backstory stuff atm)
Saw II (Saw II gave me so many issues ranking it because the final reveal was PHENOMENAL but the main game portion didn’t always work for me. I did like the idea of Eric’s game of just having to wait out the clock but I kinda count that as being a part of the final reveal and thus it can’t elevate the whole movie. There’s potential this and Saw IV could flip flop depending on my moods. This one just has higher highs but lower lows for me)
Saw III (I liked Amanda getting tested and the whole ending with the chain reaction of violence/death, but that’s about it. The main traps in this game did not do it for me, nor did the story connecting those traps. This one also just really felt that they needed to escalate the traps for escalation’s sake rather than to tell a compelling story, which I know is probably a dumb complaint for the gory trap horror franchise but idk I just didn’t like it)

I should be studying, showering, sleeping, doing literally anything else but instead, I am going to do a long post about a mentally ill blorbo because I am mentally ill myself.
SO! We all make fun of Spencer let me take my vest off and lower my gun for no reason Reid, it's a meme at this point- but that....tendency is a consequence of what I find the most fascinating about his character as a whole....his relationships- or more like, the relationships he makes up in his head.
Before I go into details I want to leave something very clear that anyone that has seen even one season of the funny cop show has noticed: Spencer is highly obsessive.
Now I am not talking about his fun little facts or that he likes star streak and doctor who obsession- those are hyperfixations, and even tho MY hyperfixation it's ruining my life, his are actually harmless and overall make him happy.
His obsessive nature had almost cost him his career, if not his life, multiple times.
If you stop to think about it in depth, why does Reid abandon all common sense when it comes to certain UnSubs, certain cases? well the most evident answer is that he projects whatever trauma of the week they decide to explore onto them- and yes, that is the nick of things. He pulled that stunt on Elephant's memory because he related to Owen's harassment story, he wanted to help Nathan because he understood being afraid of your own mind turning against you, he wanted to help Adam because he couldn't save Tobias. You get the drill- but....that is not always the case.
With the guy that Lindsey's dad murdered- Spencer didn't relate to him, he was just a piece of shit. How about Samantha? (I know there is a theory about William....doing shit to Reid when he was younger and while I can see it, for the sake of argument I will take her case into consideration) The father of the victim on "Identity"? I can name another example but this one I am going to save for last since it's the reason for me making this post-
And one can argue "Well, he is just a really nice guy" and while that is true- what I named before doesn't always apply, Spencer's compassion has a very clear, marked limit.
His relationships.
When Cyrus was killed in front of him by Morgan, Reid barely blinked- hell, he fucking SASSED him. Why? because he hurt Emily.
All sympathy he could have had for Cat before she ruined his life DESPITE kind of empathizing with her story based on what HE was going through went out of the window because she and her lil gang terrorized Penelope for months.
He felt compassion for Adam, but not for his father who he claimed was the true monster of this story in the aftermath.
When Maeve told her her ex was dead, he quickly brushed that aside to ask her if SHE was alright.
And ofc, we all know what happened in prison after his friend there was murdered.
Reid is often associated with UnSubs not only because of how his backstory aligned with their motivations (mental health issues, bullying, absent parent, losing a loved one) but because most of these crimes are passional responses- and Spencer can be extremely passional, to a point where it clouds his judgment.
Now...you might be thinking "ok that is all nice and good, but where does the obsession come into play? all that I know is that he is a cinnamon roll that loves his friends and has some really deep projection issues he really needs to work on" and you are not wrong, but what made me make this fucking thesis in the first place its something else....one of my favorite things to analyze about fictional characters in this kind of setting it's "the needs of one vs the greater good" thing.
Now let's be fr, we all as human beings will always, ALWAYS prioritize those close to us over literal strangers. Even among the best, most empathic people that is just how it is, that emotional hierarchy will always be there- what differentiates us is how much it affects our actions.
Now with a job like this, there will always be this conflict among the menbers- obviously, their families and even each other will always be a priority, but on working hours their focus HAS to be on doing their job, following the rules and just being as professional as humanly possible- even tho it sometimes kills them inside since it just doesn't feels right.
Reid actually doesn't face this debate that much- because all common sense, respect for authority and protocol goes out of the fucking window whenever he obsesses over a new blorbo lmao.
Had you heard the phrase "One death is a tragedy, a hundred is a statistic"? nothing rings more true that with Dr. Reid right here. He is able to keep his cool while touching mangled corpses and discussing all the shit that happened to them- occasionally looking horrified if it's messed up enough, but other than that he is able to keep the same level of professionalism and compartmentalization as his co-workers.
Annnnnnd then he gets to know a victim, a witness, or an unsub and the vest leaves his torso, his gun folds itself and his IQ lowers. Alot.
Let's get back to the example I put of the guy that was murdered by Lindsey's dad- in that moment he wasn't a murderer to Reid, in that moment all he saw was a teenager begging for his life and HE could be the only to save him- he couldn't. He obsessed over that instead of what the guy did and that lead him to desire to insert Diluid inside of him after 10 months of sobriety, not to mention being A BIG factor in what he does on Elephant's Memory.
"I thought I could save this one" was his response when Hotch scolded him.
Spencer literally can't forget shit. So he tries to make sure that when he knows someone, even if is on a dying moment like the mentioned UnSub, he can save them. He forms some kind of bond with someone and they stop being an face and a name adhered to his board that he is determined to save/get justice for because is his literal job and he is overall a good person. In his mind, it becomes his responsibility whenever that person it's saved, and when that crosses over obsessive territory and his job, that makes it mandatory to always put the need of the many vs the one (especially if it's an unsub) well....
It's when he spiral and puts his career/the case in jeopardy at best, and his life at worst, no to mention what that shit does to his already questionable mental health.
In the second ep of the tenth season, Reid confesses to Morgan that after killing the LDSK, it suddenly hit him and he obsessed over all the "what ifs", at that moment that guy wasn't the LDSK that almost got him, his boss and a hospital full of mortal hostages in danger- he was the man that Spencer Reid killed- and it only ended when he stopped obsessed over HIM and started to put his victim's faces on his wall, forcing his focus on them instead.
He was more focused on the father of the victim on "identity" than the actual unsub himself because years before he had stopped him from seeing his daughter, and had made enough of an impact to be remembered by him in the present. Thanks to that bond, that little relationship, Spencer was able to put himself between a highly emotional distraught father's gun and the man he wanted to kill, to protect him.
He didn't get to personally know Samantha until the end- but he got to meet the scumbag that raped her. Add that to the already soft spot he has for children and you have a very angry Reid ready to do literally anything to make sure this woman that didn't even knew him was safe.
And ironically enough, what prompt me to do this thesis wasn't even one of those nice touchy feeling moments Spencer had with someone he bonded over- either personally or on a parasocial level- but one where he was wrong, but was about to risk a whole case over it. Rock Creek Park.
In that episode, Spencer and this other girl are keeping watch over this mafia thing so this politician guy's wife cane come back (as you can see I pay attention to certain scenes more that others lmao) and you can see the exact moment where the mission....stops being Spencer's priority.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After hearing this girl's conversation with her mother, she stopped being "the maid" and became someone Spencer's "knows" and so this leads to....this
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
....why did I bother with that text block when this scene spills it out- Anyways.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I dunno why but Rossi's reaction always sends me to the stratosphere- he knows.
Anyways, turns out that the helpless maid was actually on it all along and Reid almost throws the entire case off over nothing- *slows clap*
Ok ok, this might seem like I am slandering my boy but as fun as it is to make fun of him, this is exactly why I love him. This recklessness as a result of tunnel vision it's....concerning considering his line of work, and his eagerness to go far and beyond for someone he barely knows just because he knows them, above everything else and he is there, and can't bare the thought of not doing anything for them., to have their death's imprinted on his memory.
In conclusion- he ain't lawful good/neutral like the first few episodes want to make you think, he is chaotic good. And a mess. And I love him.

Only Friends Ep. 5 Thoughts
spoilers
not even two minutes in and someone is trying to kill ray, its not looking good out here
nick interrupting the raysand handjob is so wild because sandnick knows that top cheated on mew and they know mew and ray are friends and theyre just not gonna say anything to ray, thats crazy
the raysand and topmew dates are so cute i just know this isn't gonna last
sidenote: that wasn't actually topmew being cute, it was forcebook. the only way i can keep myself sane is by pretending its just forcebook
sand dressed the way i want to dress im going insane he's my favorite kind of boy: guitar player, rock and indie fan, leather jackets, anger issues, homoerotic tension with men - if ray doesn't want him I'll keep him
NOOOO MEW NOT THE GLASSES
top fixing mew's glasses 😭 he's too fine to be such a scumbag
mew's prescription is -5.00, he's just like me fr
am i tripping or is mew now hyperaware of every time top talks to another man because he thinks that they're all ex-hookups or top might hook up with them after? like what was that look when the server gave top the bill?
IS THIS BITCH--? IS NICK CHANGING THE WAY HE DRESSES AND GOING TO THE GYM IN ORDER TO LOOK MORE LIKE TOP AND GET BOSTON'S ATTENTION????? BOY STAND UP PLEASE DONT BE LIKE TOP PLEASE
bostonnick in the pool just reminded me of that one kinnporsche pool scene im sorry i was hoping they would have sex in the pool
also -- diversity win! the lying backstabbing guy who is playing with your feelings and ruining his friendgroup believes in safe sex!
another thing that intrigues me: does boston even like his friends? cuz we've seen all four of them together and having fun, and they look to get along well if you ignore everything happening in the background, but individually? has boston hung out with or just simply had a normal convo with anyone? mew has with ray and cheum, and im starting to believe that boston hates mew for something that happened in the past or is really jealous, but does he hang out ray and cheum just one on one? because at this point it feels like the only person boston talks to is nick, which is.... idk I'm just so curious as to how the raymewbostoncheum friend group came to be
also the fact that he's not even interested in the hostel. the only people we've seen truly working on it are mew and cheum, mew possibly because if it fails he loses his place as top student, idk why but cheum is a business major so she probably has some vested interest in this project. i'm assuming ray is a buisness major because of his dad and even tho it's technically his project - as boston points out - i doubt he wants to work in that field
"I don't want to sleep around anymore. I want to have sex with someone I can talk to and be affectionate with" boston the word you are looking for is boyfriend. you want a boyfriend, and nick is right there (for some reason)
instead of being called only friends, this show should be called "getting cockblocked by all your friends" because this is getting ridiculous. first raysand, then raysand again, then bostonnick, and then raysand again
the way mew wants his friends to be in serious relationships is soo......cute, but also funny that he's over here rooting for his friends meanwhile he keeps top in a situationship like bestie look in the mirror
also i will chew on concrete if boston only dislikes mew because of top oh my god its never that serious over dick
ray please stop talking to that girl omg summer is too pretty to be involved in whatever the fuck you and your friends have going on, give her to me
that concert scene makes me miss brightwin idk
atp I'm gonna assume that every guy who looks at top has fucked him unless proven otherwise cuz this is getting ridiculous
ah fuck....mew has fallen for top..... but anyway this confirms mew is probs demiromantic and demisexual
not the debt collectors 😭 is it really a rich x poor storyline if there's no debt collectors?
sand's mom owns....the go go club....i'm.....oh my god thats why he was there in episode like 2
ray singing sand a love song for his birthday oh be still my beating heart
not mew calling boston to tell him that he's ready to have sex with top 😭 bestie i get that he's your friend with the most sexual experience and you dont want to tell ray cuz he had feelings for you but oh my god why did you tell ton??????
but also "I'm afraid if I don't have sex with Top he'll get bored of me" after seeing so many people check out Top that day.....Mew is finally at a point where he has romantic feelings for Top and its probably for the first time ever and he doesn't want to let him go so he'll have sex with him, he's so real honestly I relate to him a stupid amount
also...okay wait....so is the friendship between bostonmew one-sided or is top truly the reason why their friendship will crumble in the future? cuz mew calls boston about top for reassurance and boston reassures him for some reason....
out of context topmew is cute.....oh their break up is gonna be awful
their first time having sex was so sweet and tender but i know damn well this wont last
ray and his mommy issues back at it again
sand distracting ray from drinking more by sharing personal details about his life....oh......oh....
sand was named after the place his mom and dad had sex oh my god....
ray's mom 🤝 ray
suicidal and alcohol addicts
"Only Cockblocked By Your Friends" the series strikes again!!!
it just hit me that they're eating weed cookies.....
also... "sand, this isnt your usual stuff?" does this mean sand sold ton drugs before or....?
ray keeps saying he and sand aren't dating and its breaking both mine and sand's heart
bostonnick and raysand drinking and partying together doesnt sit right in my heart....somehow someone is gonna say something bad while high
"even if you really like ray, i doubt it would work out between you two" whelp there it is
boston for the love of god shut the fuck up so we can have happy raysand and topmew please stop telling everyone and their mother that ray is in love with mew so that he can move on oh my god please its only episode 5 i need some happy moments between the two couples a little longer please
why is ton airing out all of ray's dirty laundry why is he doing the things that he does he's so messy i love it
well......ray and boston are probably not friends anymore
boston is too fine to be acting like this
now that I'm thinking about it....were boston and ray ever friends or were they just in the same friend group? cuz back in like episode one he was the one who was supposed to take care of ray when he was drunk and didn't so, like....
that last scene with sandray is sad and all but I'm too distracted over the fact that they're sleeping without blankets covering them
WAS THAT RAYMEW FIGHTING IN THE PREVIEW NO I CAN TAKE EVERYTHING BUT RAYMEW FIGHTING STOP DONT DO THIS TO ME

From what I remember in your story, even taking Iroh's initial biases into account I thought part of his intense hostility leading up to his report to Ozai was that he was truly convinced that Azula's true nature was either no better or even significantly worse than Ozai's due to the Iroh's suspicions arc. Azula herself told Sokka she was worried that by throwing him of the trail of their relationship that she may have brought the worst out of him. Honestly this was probably my favorite exploration of their conflict, because if they were truly able to trust each other and talk they could have avoided so much pain and trouble, but both of them over the course of the story had developed genuine and/or biased reasons not to trust one another and viewed themselves as doing the right thing despite their actions ultimately resulting in the worst outcome. Azula was trying to prevent a known adversary from having ammunition to ruin their lives and future plans, and Iroh believed that he was essentially hindering the fire nation by turning what he thought were essentially two Evil Ozais with a good relationship with one another into enemies. I can't lie that I'm not slightly disappointed that in the latest chapter that this aspect of their conflict wasn't brought up more explicitly in the conversation with Zuko when Iroh was talking about his biases. Was I personally thinking that the dynamic was more significant than it actually was or is that dynamic being saved for a future conversation Iroh may have with Sokka and Azula?
Uuuuuh, as for the last question... I don't really know if I'll bring it up some more since I do think I've had Iroh acknowledge why and how he fucked up in that respect in the past + exteriorized that if Azula had acted differently he might just have done it too? Am I crazy for thinking so? Did I write that or didn't I? That's a complicated game to play when you're almost at 5 million words of a story... 🤣
Azula and Iroh miiiight have one more conversation in the future and maybe this will come up there, but I haven't written it yet so I won't make any promises on that front. Admittedly, I don't expect their future encounter to be particularly fruitful. Iroh is 100% genuine in what he has understood and learned, though, that can't be denied and I always have hoped to portray him not as a super wicked villain but as a character who thinks he understands far more than he actually does, with motivations that push him into making mistakes he very much comes to regret.
This being said, the Azula-Iroh and Zuko-Ozai parallels in this story are and always have been 100% intentional. Those two tugs-of-war have been going on forever, and the crux of them was very much the fact that Azula and Iroh distrusted and second-guessed and suspected each other soooo much... because they have similar natures, similar thought processes, and they're both intellectual, suspicious, hiding what's REALLY going on underneath the surface, and immediately wary when they recognize all those traits in each other too. Likewise, Zuko and Ozai have some REALLY ugly parallels and one of those parallels, already given away by the chapter you sent this ask over, is going to be the driving force of the conflict between those two, much as a similar thing was the driving force between Iroh and Azula, in its own way: the more they fight to push the other away, the harder they reject the other, the more they end up embodying the flaws they see in that other person, to an extent where they could do absolutely TERRIBLE things just out of wanting to push the other one as far away as possible.
So yeah, the point was never for Iroh to feel like some sadistic mustache-twirling villain who wanted Azula to suffer just for shits and giggles. He had his reasons to do what he did. Doesn't mean he was right. Doesn't mean he should've done it. What it means is it made sense in his head due to his biases, the information he had at hand at the moment, and the particularly awful relationship he had with Azula. Likewise, Azula's rejection of Iroh back in "Iroh's suspicions" caused her uncertainty and anguish because she KNEW she had taken it too far. She was afraid of the consequences. A part of her KNEW that if she acted differently, there was a chance, however slim, that Iroh might not have made the choice he did. And that's why this is such a messed up situation! :')
Ultimately, I want my characters to have motivations that just... add up. That can be traced. That, upon looking at their actions and choices, anyone can go "oh yeah, this is why they did whatever they did". This is good when it comes to establishing ultimate goals, and it's also good when you want to put characters to the test: how far are they willing to go, what are they ready to do to achieve whatever they're trying to achieve? How much are they willing to sacrifice for it? And the answers to those questions can be VERY extreme and painful. Just so, we can find characters who decide to back down and simply surrender over their goals when they realize that there are other things that matter more. But it's a manner of game a writer plays when it comes to gauging and figuring out what a character wants vs. needs, what a character will fight for and what it will take for them to surrender, and so on. Fundamentally, that's how I built up Iroh and Azula's chaotic dynamic. Whatever comes from that in the future, ultimately, their biggest problem may just be that they were just too smart for their own good, tried to outsmart each other a little too much, and never allowed themselves to just... accept each other properly. They came close to it once, yes! But... they failed. And it's depressing as hell, but complicated characters will always be challenging this way...

gorbo thoughts part .. 3?
goro thoughts update. id like to ramble again
ok i think he might not have ocd actually! i mean he could but like...i dont think theres too many signs. so yes id like to. recall that. i think that was just me projecting LMAO.. its ok! i love learning more about my favorite guy. you know what he does have
i stand by the ocpd. (obsessive compulsive personality disorder, its a completely different thing from OCD. its a personality disorder) also Definetely ctpsd (complex ptsd)...... ! i was talking with someone and they brought it up and i was like. WOAG.. after reading about it
disclaimer: i only talk about these because i have them LOL.. im sure gorbo has a cute soup of Other problems but like. i cant really talk about those well... i find these two really interesting though.
see. ocpd, is like the perfectionist control freak disorder. its what people Think ocd is lol. BUT as a personality disorder, its so much more than that. people with ocpd also:
-you tend to have a black and white moral code
-your way is the only right way.
-you like to do things alone because no one else could do them right; this may cause relationship problems and you may come across as a fucking cunt ( i know this..)
difficulty compromising and accepting any critisicim of your actions or opinions.
excessive devotion to work and productivity
sosososo afraid of failure even if its kinda small. you feel it will ruin your image forever and ever. if i make a mistake put me to death please.
Frequently become overly fixated on a single idea, task or belief. even to detriment of . everything else in your life...
yeah...
me and some friends definetely see some of these in goro! ofc im so happy to hear what you guys think, i dont mind changing my views at all (like with the ocd thing i changed opinion about!)
like.. hes super fixated on his revenge plan, its the Only thing he cares about and everything is fair game if it allows him to advance that. leave him alone, its no one elses problem. he knows what hes doing. he has to be right about his values and beliefs. he has to. or else whats the point. dont tell him hes wrong. what do you mean? you dont know anything about him. he cant fail, he cant make mistakes, he has to work hard so everyone sees him exactly as he wants to and as someone valuable.
and. cptsd. as the name suggests its. a form of ptsd but..it has the Special Added features of:
-sometimes cant control emotions well
-you feel angry distrustful and resentful at the world in general
you feel worthless, empty or forever damaged by an event. like if you were stained with dirt forever.
you feel isolated. like no one could ever even understand what you went through (not in like an. edgy kid way. like fr. you feel even if you explained to people. they wouldnt understand you and your feelings. or theyd judge you and further hurt you...)
avoiding friendships and relationships, or finding them very difficult (!!)
escapism or depersonalisation...dissociative behaviors .
yeah.. ! yeah. i think these ring quite some bells huh..! its really shitty! you feel like no one would get it, like no one would like you, like you are ruined forever and theres not much to do about it.
makes sense that goro would absorb himself in his plan. after all. he felt he was some sort of curse upon his mom; as if he was the one responsible for ruining her life.. but hed like to "redeem" himself with the revenge plan. he has to, even if its difficult to go on. i wonder if he planned to do anything if he achieved his plan? i dont think so. its a bit sad but.. he didnt really seem to plan doing. or living much more after. its like his whole life he convinced himself his only use would be as the vehicle to enact a revenge years in the making, and thats it.
as if he wasnt a person. just a tool to revenge. i think this is why its so difficult, frustrating and downright distressing to him to accept he too, has feelings and wants and needs like any Normal Person on planet earth. no way. those just interfere with the plan. and he has no right anyways.
i thought how id feel, in his shoes and with all my cute soup of wrong stuff, if some guy showed up, hes the guy i gotta kill. ok. then hes nice with me, as if mocking me. hes better at me in most things. he has friends and family and everyone likes him and he barely moves a finger. while i had to work so damn hard to even get acknowledged?? what does he have that i do not. hes nothing special. so why? then this guy acts like a fool even when hes so extraordinary in every aspect... does he think its funny? for someone so special to pretend to be ordinary. when id kill to be just half as special as him. honestly.. id become super frustrated with this bastard too. his presence would infuriate me. and the most frustrating thing, would be that this guy seems to be the only guy that seems to like hanging out with me. what the hell. guess he enjoys trying to humor me..
man...

The relationship between pucci and weather is one of my favorites in all of jojo. Especially since everything that happened between them might have been avoided if pucci had been upfront about everything (although there’s no telling if perla and weather would have believed him anyway) One of the few instances of a plot revolving around a misunderstanding that actually works!
y e a h
I can't remember where I heard this quote, but it fits their situation perfectly:
"The best kind of tragedy is one where it feels anything could've been changed to avoid it but knowing nothing could've changed because of who the characters are."
at every possible turn, at every single decision, you could've changed anything about their story and the ending could've been avoided. Had Pucci not taken the Arrow, had Wes not stopped Perla's thief, had Pucci not been at the confessional box that night, had he confronted them outright, had he gone to anyone else to split the pair up........
but at the same time, every single thing happened for a reason
of course Pucci took the arrow, Dio had piqued his interest and honestly if a weird magic man gave me something I'd want to keep it too
of course Wes stopped Perla from getting robbed, he's always been a good person at heart
of course Pucci kept what was said in the confessional booth secret, he was a devout priest in training and speaking what was in the box would violate all kinds of rules he held himself to
of course Pucci tried to split them up in secret, he loved his sister more than anything and had no reason to think there was anything dangerous afoot
and to make things even worse...... there really is no single person to blame for what happened. They were all innocent children, not even 16 years old, who had no idea what was happening. They had no reason to think they were in danger or that the choices they made could ruin their lives in a way that could never be repaired. It was simply awful, cruel chance that led things down the path they took
and that adds an extra piece of tension when the Pucci Tragedy is explained. Knowing as the audience that these people aren't going to be getting a happy ending but not fully comprehending how bad its going to be until it happens

hiiiii anon who has had 9 of their requests written. Ig i’ll use the squid emoji from now on to represent myself 🦑
you asked if there were any other requests of mine you haven’t gotten to and im genuinely having a hard time remembering all the requests ive sent you 💀
But ik there is one i requested about ethan and reader having phone sex when being in a long distance relationship
one angsty fic that ends in smut where both ethan and reader think the other person doesn’t have feelings for them anymore
i think i suggested one the notebook coded one
and i think i suggested one where its super fluffy smut where ethan and reader lose their virginity, and are at first nervous because they want it to be special, but realize it’s special purely because it’s between them
oh and i requested a second part to the voyeur fic (that og request was mine as well 🤭)
AHHHHH ILYSM
-🦑
Ahhh, my favorite cephalopod ❤️
okay OKAY the phone sex one…have they ever met in person at any point of their relationship? Or is it like a met online kind of situation? Just want to know if Ethan’s already familiar with readers body or not🫣
The angsty smut one where reader thinks Ethan doesn’t like her anymore, I was kind of leaning more towards a friends with benefits situation but they both have their feelings (readers made hers obvious, but Ethan’s scared of heartbreak), and Ethan gets a little cold towards her, like not acting like he always does around her, and she thinks he doesn’t want her anymore, which leads to Ethan thinking she doesn’t want him because she just kind of does her own thing(I still have the request so I know how you want it to end, I don’t want to give the whole thing away because someone else might read this and I’d ruin the story👀), seriously, let me know if that sounds okay!
With the Notebook coded one, the only thing I’m really caught up on is how much time passes between the breakup and when they see each other again, and if they both still try to date other people during the breakup or if it’s more like…they both just don’t want to because they still love each other sm that they can’t even really think about anyone else (I’ll admit it, I only half-watched the notebook once👀)
The virginity one I’ll get to soon, because I just need to write some super sweet fluffy smut in my near future lmao
And the voyeur fic, I’ve actually been working on that one a lot lately! I keep bouncing back to it and tweaking a few things, because obvi reader and Ethan see each other after she sucked the soul out of him and like, there’s SO MUCH TENSION.
For real, if you want to talk about this stuff through asks, we can! Or if you want to message me, I’d of course still keep you anonymous! I’m sure you’ve realized that I like to go into detail, like it’s probably awful tbh, but I want to make sure something I write is exactly what you want! ❤️💕🫶🏻

BEY SPIRIT AND THEIR BLADER INTERACTIONS LETS GET TO IT
Of course I had to start with my favorite crackhead, Ryuga, so let’s get chatting. Out of everyone, even Gingka, Ryuga has the strongest and deepest connection with his bey spirit. The reason for this is because Ryuga and L-drago have practically gone through the same toils throughout their life. They both came into a new life, being manipulated into an evil position by greedy people who only wanted to use them for power, and in the process they ended up being taken over by their guardians' desires. At first they didn’t like each other, but during L-drago’s transformation in metal masters into Meteo L-drago, Ryuga was able to realize that both he and L-drago were in a way abused, and with that painful realization they bonded. Ever since then Ryuga has been completely reliant on L-drago for years, and it’s the same way with L-drago. Ryuga’s bond is especially important to him, as before he didn’t really have an outlet to communicate to others openly and always struggled with doing so. This ties into my personal HC that he’s autistic, but you could honestly take it with him being NT as well. The fact of the matter is that beyblade is practically the only thing that allows him to share how he's feeling with another person without using words, which is why he and L-drago get along so much in the first place. They don’t speak with words. They let their emotions do the talking, even when one of them is overwhelmed. A side note to this I feel like L-Drago would help Ryuga with bouts of overstimulation from his environment kind of like a service dog would, sticking his gigantic lizard head in between his arms so he doesn’t pull at his hair or hurt himself, stuff like that. Might have to draw it soon now that I have the idea.
Gingka and Pegasus’ relationship on the other hand is much more chill. I like to picture it as the sort of ‘he’s my coworker and he is absolutely amazing, he makes every moment better’ relationship, but I feel like it’s much more chaotic than that. Gingka loves verbally ranting about whatever battles he looks forward to, and it goes in sort of a two way streak where they both are fired up about a battle, with one fueling the other's joy. Though Pegasus started out as a more stoic spirit when he was with Ryo, Gingka has really made him open up and show his fun and happy side. Sometimes Pegasus just comes out randomly from his bey and just sort of walks alongside him. I feel like they might just break out into a racing contest every once and a while when this happens.
Despite his scary looking demeanor, Kyoya’s bey spirit is actually quite sensitive outside of fights. This hc is mostly based off of andro-Dino’s art depicting Leon being all snuggly to Kyoya, and honestly I couldn’t agree more with the interpretation. It took Leon a little while until he fully trusted Kyoya again after his fight with Gingka which almost led to him hurting himself and Leon, but near the end of metal fusion they reconciled and became friends again. Leon will rattle its bey in order to let Kyoya to let him out and let him stretch. Most of the time though, he just wants a good couple of pets. Leon’s almost ironic sweet nature is perfect for Kyoya, reminding him not only to take care of his bey spirit, but also himself. Kyoya will rant to him about literally ALL the tea. Leon could RUIN some lives if he wanted to.
Aries’ relationship with Hyoma would mostly be just making sure he doesn’t die. Whether it be going on a simple hike, or literally saving his ditzy ass from an avalanche, Aries is always there for him. Definitely probably is sort of a ‘mom’ friend, and is very very protective of Hyoma ever since the battle with Reiji. They have a deep bond that is mostly expressed through battling, and much like Ryuga, he and Aries don’t rely on words to express their affection to each other. Aries has been with Hyoma since he was little, and though he’s gotten older and stronger, a part of Aries worries about him a lot, seeing him still as the little boy that picked him up years ago. Aries definitely encourages Hyoma to be himself, allowing him to knock on his horns as a way of stimming. Honestly so much of their friendship would just be so wholesome.
Tsubasa’s friendship with Eagle is a little bit more modest than most. Earth eagle is a little more reserved than most of the spirits, his serious demeanor coinciding with Tsubasa’s. However, ever since they overcame the bout with the Dark power they were able to become a little closer and have become more relaxed within the presence of one another. Sometimes Tsubasa will summon Eagle out on a nice, cool night out in the woods and ask if he would like to join him in gazing at the stars. Eagle agrees almost 100 percent of the time. Eagle brings him fish and trinkets whenever he’s upset.
While Yu doesn’t have an actual embodiment of a bey beast, it is still very much there. Libra is more like a concentration of feelings, ever changing and not needing form. Libra reflects the strength and overall joy that Yu feels in battle, so they don’t NEED a form to express Yu’s power. However, I think somewhere down the line as Yu maybe matures a little and gets even stronger alongside his friends, I feel like his Bey spirit would take the form of a bat, specifically a Masked Flying Fox, though a vampire bat would be a pretty cool spirit too. Yu and his bey always have fun together. Honestly Libra’s only friend is Yu, so he is always super excited to hang with him. It doesn’t matter what they are doing, talking, battling, or even eating, Libra is all for it. Much like Yu, Libra is the sunshine child of the bey beast group.
Kenta and Saggitario’s relationship is very best friends chill buddies. I would call them homies but that implies that they make an infinite amount of chaos together which rarely happens. Saggitario is a little more gentle with Kenta though he isn’t as protective as Aries. It’s kind of like ‘the kid can handle himself most of the time, but no matter what happens I’m gonna support him and make sure both of us come out safe’. I think when Kenta joined up with Ryuga Saggitario was a little nervous and scared himself, but he was mostly confident in Kenta’s determination that he knew he could do it. Since then I feel like L-Dragon and Saggitario kind of have a good(???) relationship. Like I guess you could call them friends, but again, like Ryuga, L-drago is a little bit hard to get out of his shell so Saggitario mostly just keeps a comfortable distance while still being nice. Saggitario used to give Kenta rides back to his parents when he hurt himself training when he was REALLY REALLY tiny, and to thank him Kenta used to leave him fruit snacks to eat when he was away (I know that bey spirits can’t eat but just imagine it okay it would be so so cute)

Ruin is finally out! Thoughts?
I've actually been waiting for the release of Ruin for a while but got side-tracked to the point where I FORGOT it came out today! But fear not, I managed to download the update (62gb on pc! Are you kidding??) and I started playing Ruin!
Thoughts under the cut! ((DISCLAIMER; I HAVE NOT FINISHED RUIN YET AND THERE WILL BE SPOILERS FOR THE DLC. EVERYTHING PAST THIS POINT WILL BE MY THOUGHTS, OPINIONS, AND PREDICTIONS))
THOUGHTS
Where do I start? The DLC started off with a really immersive intro that introduced you nicely to the new gimmicks (Faz-Wrench and the V.A.N.N.I. AR system)
and I gotta say, I LOVE these new gimmicks. There's so much put into them that it feels like playing a new game, and its so nerve-wracking due to the Entity that chases you around in the AR world and the shattered animatronics that chase you around in the Real world
Its a day one release, so it's a bit clunky and there's some bugs I encountered, but nothing too severe or game breaking. There's something so refreshing about being able to experience the same Pizzaplex, but in a different circumstance and with different dangers and tools.
Another thing that I'm loving; the Lore! Cassie is such an interesting child character (And she's apparently a POC! Everything you see of her and even her voice alludes to the fact that she's definitely not a white character. And her favorite animatronic is Roxy! She subverted all of my expectations!)
And we finally got to see Glamrock Bonnie! His outfit was a little silly (the fanmade ones were all way better imo) but he still looked so cute! I hope we get to see more of him and what happened to him because the Monty Backstory in the Gator Golf ride felt a bit too fairy tale-like compared to what we heard happened to Bonnie in the emails in the base game. So, here's to hoping!
ALSO I LOVE LOVE LOVE ECLIPSE I LOVE HIM SO MUCH SO SO MUCH
PREDICTIONS
I have a sneaking suspicion that the voice we hear on the Roxy Walky is not in fact Gregory, but either Vanny or Burntrap/William impersonating him to lure Cassie into the Pizzaplex. Sometimes I find myself doubting this line since the animatronics seem to react to Gregory and he keeps mentioning needing to hide or remain quiet, but it all feels suspicious to me. I won't trust the voice on the walky until I actually see Gregory in front of me. We've been tricked by sweet voices in the series before.
I don't know what Cassie and Gregory's relationship is, considering they seem to be quite close to the point where she finds the need to rescue him at a moment's notice and can also seem to tell that Gregory is acting Weirdtm. I think they might be related in some regard, like half siblings or something, or they might've been friends while Gregory was homeless
Speaking of Gregory being homeless, I noticed some of the Real World collectibles that you can find are Gregory's handdrawn comics. I haven't collected them all yet, but I feel like they tell a story that may end up being super important.
Overall, I'm loving Ruin so far! I've found a lot of things that I can write about in the Glamstar AU, and now I need to find a way to implement Cassie since she and Abbie are way too different now to be tied as the same character
I've already started art and drafts for Glamstars Ruin, hopefully I can post them soon! Stay tuned!

ok ok ok
Hear me out
Cause I've gotta couple things that might catch your attention ;):
FUTURE FICS I WILL MAKE AND I WANT TO SHOW YOU BECAUSE YOUR AWESOME!!!
Masky x Reader - Fantasy AU:
Where [Name] is known as "That one human who just won't die for some reason", and is known as a threat for killing the killers.
Of course she kills them for self-defense, but Killers don't view humans that way and consider her a threat.
So Masky is tasked with retrieving her and bringing her to the Operator/Slenderman.
(Inspired by the Owl House)
Toby x Reader x Eyeless Jack:
Toby, Reader, and Eyeless Jack are trapped in a killing game along with 17 other killers, making 20 if them.
Toby is the Operator/Slenderman's favorite and head Proxy, Eyeless Jack is in Toby's group and is one of the best medics, and [Name] is a poor human caught in the fiasco
(Inspired by Danganronpa).
Hoodie/Brian Thomas x Reader:
This is more of a slice of life, but it's very dark. [Name] is a human who was "adopted" by what I like to call, the Clockwork squad.
The Clockwork squad is: Clockwork (Leader), Jane (second in command), Nina (poster-girl), Nurse Ann (Medic), X-virus (Scout).
However their relationship isn't really healthy, and it resembles that of a toxic nuclear family.
So this is in the timeline in Marble Hornets where Brian "dies". But instead of being revived for the Operator/Slenderman, he ends up in the Zalgo realm.
Where he meets [Name].
(Inspired by South Park, Moral Orel, and Helluva boss)
AND SOME SHIP DYNAMICS:
Masky is a living breathing mess, but [Name] is such an even bigger mess, that it makes him actually ground to earth.
Hoodie is your player hot boy, but then he meets [Name], a shy rich kid with a bunch of family trauma.
Toby is a fucking disgusting rat who makes everyone's life a living hell, but he meets [Name], his ultimate match, that's somehow always catching up and ruining his schemes.
EJ is a gremlin demon with a superiority complex, and [Name] is the one who claps him back down from his pedestal.
Jeff is your local murderous goth, and [Name] is the personification of Barbie, which is actually Jeff's type, nuclear family trauma go brrr.
Consider my attention caught 😳
AHHH THANK YOU FOR SHOWING ME I ALWAYS LOVE HEARING YOUR IDEAS THEY'RE SO GOOD AND YOU LITERALLY MAKE MY DAY!
Fantasy AU sounds absolutely lovely, I think there will be a great chemistry between Masky and the reader 😳
Oooo A Toby x Eyeless Jack x reader looks very cool! I think you can do a lot of great things with the plot, it's an interesting relationship dynamic too👀
I NEED MORE SLICE OF LIFE FICS FOR THIS FANDOM, EVEN IF ITS DARK PLZ ID ABSOLUTELY LOVE FOR THIS BOOK TO EXIST😤 Like you can make it realistic and fluffy at the same time and It's such a good idea ✨️ The Zalgo realm situation would be very cool and the idea that they're all part of a toxic nuclear family is an interesting detail!
The Toby and Reader ship dynamic is perfect- The same with EJ because he does need to be taken down a notch 💀💀💀 Oh gosh I adore each of these different dynamics and I can't wait to see what you create with them💛💛💛

♧ʏᴀɴᴅᴇʀᴇ ᴛᴇᴛsᴜʀō ᴋᴜʀᴏᴏ x ʀᴇᴀᴅᴇʀ [ʜᴇᴀᴅᴄᴀɴᴏɴs + ᴍɪɴɪ ᴏɴᴇ-sʜᴏᴛ]♡
.
𝐀𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐞: ハイキュー!! [Haiykyu!!]
𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐨/𝐢: Tetsurō Kuroo
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭: Type of Yandere + mini oneshot
WARNINGS: FEM READER, yandere behaviour, implied cannibalism, kidnapping, implied NS//FW themes, obsession, implied torture. This was written for @.thxt-rav3n, wich asked me to write more yandere Kuroo's stuff.
Tumblr media
• Kuroo is a person without remorse, is not afraid to take what he wants. <The end justifies the means>, he'll repeat in his head when he will check another name noted on the back of his chemistry book, just that one he loaned to you during a lesson.
• His apparent patience is based on the thinking of when he will finally manages to lull gently your shape in its iron grip.
• He has an ordered list of the people that, for him, have gone a bit 'too far', a list of dirty rats who dared to try to ruin your wonderful "royalty."
• After all, even a solitary king needs to govern with a beautiful queen at his side, judging those who are unworthy to breathe.
• You could screaming, kicking, wiggling against the tight ropes tied against your figure on his bed, and he just would observe, lovingly smiling to you from the desk chair.
• <My queen, you do not have to worry about this... situation, but I still need to make sure that your allegiance is clear enough to me, before I can afford you to go around my house *smack*. Try to understand me... Honey, if you do not stop yelling, I'll be forced to do things that you and I could repent...>
• Do not worry about your family, the dead cannot find you. No one will come for you. Once you've gone, it is as if you had never existed outside of your new house; all because Kuroo has put a special emphasis on telling you the potential threats against your relationship. As he wanted the blessing of your parents, I do not think it can more have it...
• <*Tch* Done... Anyway, I and her were already destined to be together~ Now, who else I need to execute?>
• It may or not get excited at the sight of you tied so closely, so tight as his pants are at this very moment, watching you and going at you with a predatory manner.
• But if you rejected him, he actually would. With is face usually jokingly crossed by a small grin followed by a flash reluctance, he would still back off. After all, he does not want you to hate him.
• Even if he did not really care.
• You are that tiny piece of mental sanity that still holds to reality to actually preventing him from start to bloodshed; he does not really care that you're pretending to love him for deceiving him, he can clearely see it, you're an open book; You just need to not have anyone else besides him and to think to him as your savior .
• You would never know that on the bed on which you are so blissfully asleep from exhaustion, Kuroo has touched himself in an absurd rate. He had to find some kind of relief. Do you understand?
• A life with him would be like a carousel.
• Not in a good way, I have to clear that up.
• One day he could be a real gentleman with you and you would be flooded with thousands of attention, and the next day he might ignore you shamelessly, so you'll be the one who asks his attention.
• <What about my queen? Heh, and here I thought for a moment that I was the one that asks things in this lovely relationship, but in the end you see that it always were you?>
• It would be needless to say that he would create a dependence on his being, and that he would make you slowly associating the good words with pleasure that you begged for.
• Now you do not even know if you're a human for him or if you've been trained like a dog.
• But better that way.
• It is needless to say that the Stockholm syndrome will hit you like a train.
• You act well? Surprise, he only prepared just for you your favorite dish and you can watch tv with him! [Obviously only replicas of volleyball matches and only the shots of him]
• You behave badly?
• <Oya? Hmm, ok, time for the punishment, I do not the rules.>
• At the end you will be only an empty shell of what you once were, your personality will disappear along with the hope of going away to the point to remember and pay attention only his voice and his face.
• <A small price to pay for happiness, my dear.>
═════════ *. ·: · .☽✧✦✧☾. ·: ·. * ═════════
Kuroo had finally decided to untie the ropes around your wrists and ankles, he has been feeling that you've been good enough, so he decided to let you get around the house.
The night fell and with it, Kuroo fell asleep with you in his strong arms, leaving little or no space to move. Suddenly, a noise coming from outside the house woke the sleeping man and, still dazed by the abrupt awakening, he woke up from the bed.
He rummaged in the drawer and pulled out a butcher knife, that same knife he had used to mark you during your intimate moments.
And, pretending to sleep, you heard the little monologue of your loving boyfriend.
<Mh, she's still asleep, God forbid that it is again that hunter, if it's he, I swear I'll kill him...>
Except that little detail that before going to sleep, because of the summer heat, he had let the locks of the window open enough to spread a little fresh air; all thinking that you could never get out of his iron grip during the night.
His little forgetfulness could be to be your golden opportunity to finally escape from this hell on earth. You sprinted to the window, opening it completely and finally breathing a taste of freedom.
But somehow... your brain and your heart continued to hinder the formation of an escape plan.
Kuroo had always done things that would put you at ease, and had even tolerated all the taunts and insults that you had launched when he has kidnapped you for the first time! He even gave you your privacy when you needed it, and also he would never have allowed to go into the kitchen because, he said, there were too many sharp and dangerous objects which could hurt you, claiming that you can burn with burning stove!
<But mostly... Since now they're all dead, everyone will have forgotten about me... Kuroo was right, no one really cares about me except him. He loves everything about me, even my ugliest parts.. I'm just hurting him with my obscene behavior.>.
You shouted the window.
But that minute of hesitation on your part was enough for your partner to return in the room with blood on his clothes. By now that color and smell iron were an habitué for you; you too have felt that shiver under his wing, ending your mother's life.
He wasn't that bad.
Red suits him.
While he was getting closer to your figure, he took roughly your forearms, thinking that he had finally got confirmation of your infidelity; but when he saw the locks closed in that awkwardly way, he quickly broke his hold and instead replaced it with a sweet embrace, soothing you while several tears flowed freely on your cheeks.
<My love, finally... finally we can be what we have always wanted> He said, licking the tears from your cheeks and kissing the wakes that they had produced on your skin.
<And you know what? Tomorrow i'll let you help me in the kitchen, so we can cook together the meat that I just acquired for dinner!>
Then he added.
<But you know how much your tears excite me~>

Trope Rating Game!
Trope Rating Game Rules: how much do these tropes affect your decision to click on a fic?
-10 -> very dissuaded
0 - don’t care either way
+10 -> very enticed
nope -> if it’s a hard no and you’d never click on a fic with that tag or you even have the tag blocked or you’d insta click out of the fic if it wasn’t tagged.
Bonus points for explaining the rating and whether it’s conditional.
***
Thanks for the tag @fandoms-ruin-life ! This sounds like fun
Age gap: -4 It very much depends on the situation, but in general, I tend to avoid these types of fics (especially when the older partner calls the younger one "kid." I'm just not a fan. It can be done well and if they're both older and/or immortal I might read it, but...
Codependency: 1 It isn't a trope I'll actively seek out (and I don't much enjoy it in romance unless it is done really well or is Neil and Andrew from AFTG), but I might read it if it is a platonic relationship.
Obsession/possessives or Jealousy: -6 I'll read it, but I'm never going to seek this out. If it's more of a side plot, then yeah that's fine, but if the obsessiveness or jealousy plays a major role I'm just not interested. I'd rather the romantic partners just talk out their feelings in a healthy way...
Opposites (grumpy/sunshine, etc): 7 Always fun. Not something I'll actively look for as far as romances go, but I definitely enjoy a good opposites romance, and if it's platonic?? Absolutely!
Enemies to lovers, enemies with benefits: 0 I don't have a super strong opinion. It really depends on the other tags in the fic. I don't like the toxicity of a lot of "enemies to lovers" stuff but if it's more like "rivals" or "fake enemies" kind of situations I'm more likely to read it. If it's toxic really at all though I probably won't read it unless it ends with them not together and has h/c with some other character...
Friends with benefits: -8 Sounds like it's gonna be a lot of sex and I'm not really into that. If it's more like a queerplatonic relationship type friendship that involves sex, then I'll read it because I'm down with that theme, but otherwise probably not, unless it's a side plot.
Sex with feelings: -2 If it's in a fic I'll read it (I do enjoy the more intimate aspects of sex fics like the boundary negotiation, cuddling, or aftercare) but I'm probably not gonna just seek out this kind of fic.
Fake/pretend dating relationships: -1 They can be good, but I'm usually not a fan. There tend to be a lot of themes that seem to devalue friendship a lot of the time and I don't really like the subterfuge of this. (Caveat: if it is true fake dating and they never get together then 10/10 I will read that...)
Friends to lovers: 4 It's cute, but I'm not gonna seek it out unless its paired with some of my other favorite tropes.
Found family: 10 Don't ask stupid questions /lh
Hurt/comfort: 10 My favorite trope in Fanfiction (since most of the time I'm choosing my fandom obsessions based on the fact they already have found family in them...) I will read these fics all day, but they had better actually have comfort.
Love Triangle: Nope. This is not a trope I like. Needless alloromantic drama that doesn't interest me. (unless the whole triangle gets together then I'll read that).
Poly, open relationships: 3 In general, I don't really care all that much about the pairings, but I'm giving this a 3 because I really do enjoy the open relationship fics that involve asexual characters so...
Mistaken/hidden identity: -6 It's a thing. If it sounds interesting I might read it, but usually I don't like it all that much.
Monsterfucking: -5 Maybe? If this is the focus then no, but it just depends how the tag's being used...
Pregnancy: Nope. Pregnancy terrifies me. If this is a major part of a fic I'm not reading it.
Second Chance: 7 I like the forgiveness and communication (having tough convos is one of my favorite tropes) aspects and they usually involve hurt/comfort but like the really dramatic and super romance heavy ones aren't my thing.
Slowburn: 9 Yes. I'm aroace; the buildup of this really deep friendship over long periods of time that only eventually leads to romance but the friendship is already so important that the romance isn't treated as the natural conclusion or as a better form of what they already had?? Yes, I love that. My favorite romance trope for sure.
Tags if you want to play, but no pressure obviously: @rainystarfish @sleepdeprivedsimp234 @somewhatnerdy Or if anyone else wants to do it???

For the character ask thing, how about halt?
Would you believe me if I said I wrote all of this already but then exited out of the tab without finishing. Anyway
First impression: Oh I thought he was so cool. I said Horace was my first favourite character a few asks ago, but now that I think about it, it might have actually been Halt.
After finishing the series for the first time I also read all the books again to my dad. His favourite character was Halt, so we made lots of inside jokes about him. Me reading the books out loud to him is one of my favourite memories, so Halt has a special place in my heart for it as well.
Impression now: I still love him! Halt is honestly such a great character, and I totally get why he is the fan favourite. My interest in him has sliiightly gone down over the years, but thats mainly because he is talked about a lot in fandom spaces already so I don't really feel the need to add anything else.
Favorite moment: The part where he gets the shit beaten out of him in Erak's Ransom is funny, lmao, but also I do think its a genuinely good moment for the narrative. Until that point, we never really get to see Halt get defeated.
Sure he needs help with the Kalkara and he has his struggles in books 3-4, but he is still being as badass as a person can possibly be in his situation. We see him truly lose control of whats happening for the first time in book 7, at least to the degree of getting punched. Him having complete faith in Will returning and saving them is also a really good moment in their relationship.
Also, the way Halt reacts after Pritchard's death has always stuck with me. I think it should be talked about more often.
Idea for a story: This is about to be more of an angsty one-shot, but remember the headcanon I gave for Will?
A young Halt who has barely found his place in the world, fighting in a war that threatens to ruin the home he tried so hard to build. A man he has never known, and would never get to know anything about other than his name, choosing to die protecting him. "Take care of my son." the man wishes, and so Halt does.
He looks after Will to repay his debt at first. The man and his wife had died protecting him, so he would protect their son in return. He sees Daniel's willpower and his wife's bravery in Will everyday. Soon, it stops being a matter of debts entirely. Will is his son too now.
He gets to watch as the scrawny boy of fifteen grows up into a fine warrior under his guidance. He gets married. His parents would have been so proud, a part of Halt thinks. I am proud, he realizes.
Then Will loses his wife, and Halt gets dangerously close to losing him in return. But his son is stronger than that, he seems to be stronger than Halt thinks every single time. Stronger than any one man should forced to be. Will builds himself back up again and so, Halt is there to steady him.
Over four decades later, Halt looks at the scene that has haunted his nightmares for years. Fighting in a war that threatens to ruin the home he tried so hard to build. Except a man he knows very well this time, the man he raised himself, choosing to die protecting him. The willpower of his dad and the bravery of his mother shining in his eyes as he fights. Will is faster than his dad, but not fast enough to avoid his fate. Halt on the other hand is slower than he has ever been.
First a man fighting on the battlefield, then a woman defending her home, and at last their son. His son.
A family of selfless people and their blood on his hands.
Unpopular opinion: I feel like some people portray him as too mean. Sure, Halt is stoic. He doesn't warm up to people easily and when he finally does, he is still straightforward with them. But he is never mean. He doesn't insult anyone for no reason or actually say anything hurtful to those around him.
Favorite relationship: A bit too obvious, but Will and Halt. I really like the way their relationship develops.
Favorite headcanon: Freckles. My boyfriend got me into this one, and if you really zoom into my last drawing of him, you can see them on his face.
