You lower your phone and look back to the dark waters crashing against the shore. Logan’s time in Formula 1 has meant you’ve been traveling around the world, getting to experience so much more than you’d ever imagined you would in your lifetime, but nothing compares to the familiarity and comfort of Florida— of home.
And your friends.
“So,” Sophia bumps her shoulder against yours, eyes alight with mischief when you turn to meet her expectant gaze. “Come on,” she teases, “tell me about him.”
You’ve been friends with her for a few years now, ever since moving back to the United States. She was born and partially raised in Belgium, so after spending so long in Europe, she’s the only one who understood the minor culture shock of moving back. You both clicked, and you’ve been stuck together ever since. You’ve learned, however, that if there’s one constant about her, it’s without a doubt her need to gossip about anything and everything— but specifically boys.
You huff out a laugh, “There’s no ‘he’ to tell you about.”
She hums into her glass of wine, eyeing you skeptically.
“There isn’t!” You laugh, shoving her lightly.
She gasps and feigns falling back onto the blanket spread out beneath you. She’s dramatic, too, and that’s another reason you matched so well. She feels like the sister you never had, which makes moments like this feel even more special.
“This back and forth with a certain OP-eighty-one suggests otherwise,” she sing-songs back at you as she sits up, making kissing faces and cackling when you shove at her again.
“I’m not sure how you even know about that,” you grumble. “You don’t even use Instagram.”
“Maybe not, babes,” she casts her gaze out across the ocean, “but I have my sources. So come on, between us girls and us girls only, tell me what’s going on.”
You heave a sigh, gulp down the last mouthful of wine in your glass, and then pour yourself another while she waits. You’re not getting out of this, and part of you does really want to talk about things. On top of being your brother and therefore way more protective than he needs to be, Logan is also Oscar’s best friend and you’re not sure what “bro code” is exactly, but you imagine not dating your friend’s sister is part of it— so he’s out of the question. You’d go to Dalton if you were sure he wouldn’t tell Logan, but they’re loyal to each other and have some sort of unspoken pact when it comes to your love life. You joked once that instead of your dad, it’d be them waiting at the door with a shotgun if you ever brought a guy home, but you’re not sure it was a joke at all with how they act sometimes.
“It started in Bahrain,” you begin, rolling your eyes when she wiggles excitedly and turns her undivided attention to you. “I’ve known him for a while because he and Logan have driven together since they were young, so I messaged him after the race to say that it sucked he had to retire so early into it.”
“And?”
You shoot her a look. “And, we kept talking. One thing led to another and we met up for drinks…” You fiddle with the rim of your glass, glancing back out to the water. You can’t tell if the heat on your face is because you’re embarrassed, or from spending so much of your day under the Floridian sun. “That’s it.”
“That’s it?” She asks incredulously.
“Well—” you purse your lips. “We kissed. Once. When he dropped me off at the hotel. But it was probably just the alcohol or something. I don’t think he wanted it to mean anything. I bet he just wanted to have fun but couldn’t because he had to leave early in the morning.”
She sends you a look. “He was sober enough to drive you back… but you think it was alcohol influencing his decisions? And he kissed you, even knowing he wouldn’t be able to ‘have fun?’ Right. Didn’t mean anything at all.”
You shake your head and huff. “He was upset because he’d had such high hopes for his first Grand Prix and it ended poorly, and I was there to comfort him, so maybe that’s why. He got caught up in the moment, or something.”
“Y/N, I love you. I do. You’re my best friend and you’re like a little sister to me,” she cups your face in her hands and turns you to look at her. “But you can be so dense sometimes, do you know that?”
“Then why hasn’t he brought it up?” You ask, your voice garbled slightly from the way her hands squish your cheeks together. “We saw each other again in Melbourne, to celebrate him getting his first points, and he didn’t say anything then. Or Miami, or England, or Japan.”
She gives you another look and lets your face go. “It’s a two-way street, babe. Why haven’t you brought it up?”
And… that’s a good point. You technically could’ve brought it up, too. You’d just been so afraid of how he would’ve reacted that you’d chosen to keep quiet, preferring uncertainty over rejection. It’s the same reason why you so rarely pursue the things you want. A fear of rejection stands in your way, and you realize suddenly that you could’ve ruined things with someone you genuinely like just because you were afraid.
“You know, like, Schrodinger’s cat," you start meekly. "If you don’t open the box, the cat is dead and alive, because you don’t know. So I never brought it up. Because not knowing is better than him telling me it was nothing.”
She reaches out and wraps her arm around your shoulders, pulling you into her side. When she speaks again, her voice is calmer, less accusatory, a murmur against the ambiance of the hissing tide— “But what if he tells you it’s something?”
You groan. “He probably thinks I’m not interested.”
“Y/N—”
“Oh God!” You pull away and bury your face into your hands. “I ruined it all!”
She pries your hands away and looks you in the eye. There’s a sparkle in her gaze, it’s the look she gets when she has a plan.
“You haven’t ruined it. We just have some work to do.”

WHEN MC IS BILINGUAL
You speak the common language with the brothers, but because of your culture and nationality, you actually know how to speak another language (what you can speak is up to you ofc).
This is under the idea that despite being ancient demons, they don’t bother learning about how to speak other human languages and you guys communicate through English ">_<)!!
------------
Lucifer
He already knew this when he viewed your profile during the exchange student selection. It was already on your form so he guessed that you knew one or more languages.
He doesn’t admit it, but whenever you start talking in another language it fascinates him. That part of you makes you unique to his eyes after all.
If he had the time, he would love to learn about your language and maybe how to speak it himself. But with all the paperwork he has in the student council? Maybe he’ll save that idea for another date.
He would love spending time and learning new words from you, even about your culture, over a glass of Demonus.
It’s funny to him when he watches you struggle trying to translate a word from your native language to english. He finds it cute even.
“Tell me, how do you say endearing in your language? Because that’s what you are to me right now, love.”
Mammon
He found out once when you both were caught by Lucifer doing something up to no good. You muttered something under your breath and Mammon spent the entire lecture trying to think what you actually said.
You had to explain to him that you grew up knowing how to speak two different languages and he won’t believe you until you try to say a phrase.
Boy is shocked. You’re not only smart and reliable, but now he thinks you’re cool too!
He would probably keep asking you to translate a lot of words in your language. But given it’s Devildom, you have to explain that they’re too foreign to translate.
“Hey MC, Can ya teach me how to say ‘Lucifer is an Idiot’ in your language? If i learned then he won’t even know it!”
There’s a big chance he’ll butcher the pronunciation. Plus, Lucifer caught on quickly and scolded Mammon before giving you a warning of teaching him inappropriate phrases next time.
Levi
When one of the characters he was watching spoke in your language, he was so shocked to know that you were able to understand the language without subtitles.
To him it’s amazing! at least you’ll get to enjoy all the mangas and animes in more languages. To him, that’s a dream.
He would ask how certain phrases from TSL would sound if you translated it. It would be fun to imagine if Henry can speak another language like you can.
If the Lord of Shadow and Henry had lines together, he would love to learn how to speak them with you.
“I-it’ll be like they have their own secret language together! To make their bond stronger! So I wanted to learn how to say a few words i-if it’s okay with you?”
He would fumble a bit but if he really puts his mind to it, he’ll be fluent in a few phrases.
Satan
He saw that you were reading a book and when he asked to see what it was, he was shocked to see it in a language he couldn't understand.
He starts to ask more about your language and literature exclusively available in it, at least the ones you remember at the top of your head.
Would be probably the one who would put more of an effort to learn your language, even the semantics and honorifics.
He feels that learning your language would help him grow closer to you at a much deeper and personal level.
“Of course I think that learning how to read in it is exciting, but I really want to be able to connect to you more. Would you teach me this time?”
Give him enough time and he’ll be fluent in it. He has this devious smirk whenever his brothers get jealous every time you both have conversations they can’t understand.
Asmo
The moment he heard you say something in a different language, he would cup your face and look into your eyes with so much interest and curiosity “say that again darling?”
Would have the biggest smile on his face every time you speak your language around him because at least you’re comfortable doing so around him.
Though every time you do, he will not stop pestering until you tell him what it means.
He’d probably joke about wanting to learn phrases to help enhance his charms and seduction to a broader audience.
“Sweetie of course I was joking! But it makes me wonder. If I did learn, would that make you fall for me more?”
Knowing that you can speak another language makes him want to brag to other demons. Nothing about you is ordinary at all, and this just adds up to the list of what makes you so special to him.
Beel
During your stay in the twins room, it was brought up in one of your conversations with him and since then he’s been fascinated.
Would ask a lot about the culture you grew up from, especially food related ones if you have native dishes.
He would probably ask you about any translations that revolve around the language of food. The first phrase he’d probably memorize is “I’m hungry”
Though it helps, because it’s like your secret code for you to grab him a few snacks since you understood. He would whisper that during class and you’d hand him the little snacks that you bring along everywhere for these occasions.
“I think it’s cool that you can speak another language. It’s just like us demons then. We’re not too different.”
Whenever you’d express yourself in your own language, there’s a small smile on his face. It’s like he’s seeing a different and more personal side of you.
Belphie
He knew that humans can speak several languages during the early times that he stayed up in the human realm, though he didn’t expect you’d be one of them.
He’s half-awake when he heard you the first time but didn’t believe it, until he caught you trying to explain a phrase to Beel.
Since he was the last of the brothers to find out (due to his time in the attic) then he’d whine and ask you to entertain his questions.
The interest and curiosity he had when he first loved humans never left, he just won't admit it but you can still see it in his eyes when you talk about your world.
“You know how me and Beel have some sort of telepathic connection? I want that for us too MC.”
Just like Satan, he would’ve loved to learn your language. If only his drowsiness didn’t get in his way from actually learning it, since sometimes he would fall asleep mid lesson.

“The updates are making me like Idia more, but in the same way you'd like a character for being pathetic” I’m shocked you didn’t like Idia at least from what I remember? He’s basically the same as Rollo (a character you do like I think) and in more ways than one. They’re both gloomy looking guys and traumatized big bros that are self righteous and pathetic. What kept you from liking Idia before if you don’t mind me asking?
[Referencing something I said in this post!]
Okay, confession time: when I was a little kid (I’m talking like 7-10 years old), I was SUPER into Greek mythology and more specifically the story of Hades and Persephone. I ate up ALL the Hades and Persephone retellings/reinterpretations I could find and actively hunted for more 💀 so you’d think I’d like Idia, who is twisted from Hades, given how I gravitated to Octavinelle because of my attachment to The Little Mermaid on my childhood…
I think what puts me off of Idia in spite of his similarities to Rollo, a character I do really love, is a combination of Idia's appearance and his attitude.
To tackle the shallower aspect first, I actually don't like characters that look "too" gloomy. I would say Rollo is stoic-looking, but not gloomy? He has a pretty neutral face most of the time and the only gloomy thing about him at a glance is the dark circles under his eyes. With Idia... There's a LOT going on here. The hair is definitely unique, but I've never been into super long hair. The nature of it kind of overshadows his face and Idia usually looks miserable as a default. I've mentioned before that I'm unnerved by his coloration too; the super pale skin plus the blue lips is reminiscent of a corpse and, well... while I do see there being an audience that finds him beautiful, I don't think that's a cute look for him.
Now, his attitude. I'm not going to fault Idia for being passionate about his hobbies, as we all have our niches that we're super into. What irks me is how Idia expresses himself and acts out on behalf of those interests. He talks down to people who "don't get it" and takes other measures to defend the things he likes that I think is crossing a line. For example, he tracks down the IP addresses of Ignihyde mob students that defaced his favorite idol group's website. In the EN version, Idia threatens to doxx the mobs too (though he never does, this was just a localization decision). Yeah, you could do that I guess... but should you? 😭 The other characters also do questionable things (as a J word fan, I cannot deny this) but those actions are usually so outlandish no one irl would do it (like how Azul is a high school student that runs his own shady business). Idia's behavior, meanwhile, embodies some very real and very toxic aspects of fandom culture.
I think part of why I disliked Idia at first is also his manner of speaking; it's riddled with so much internet lingo that it's hard to take him seriously sometimes. This is even more true of the EN version of the game, which has added even more slang than was in JP. Like... sorry, am I NOT supposed to be giggling when OB Idia is making threats while talking like an enraged gamer (both in EN and JP)? There is a ceiling on how much pathetic I can take in one sitting, and Idia far exceeds it every time he talks. Other characters (like Rollo making cheesy villain speeches, Azul being teased, Jamil's DOKKAN, etc.) have their moments of funny ha ha-cringe as well, but at least I can still see them in a serious light.
Books 6 and 7 are enhancing my opinion of Idia solely because they focus on the "traumatized big brother" part to his character. In Glorious Masquerade too... Idia gets the courage to call Rollo out because he knows their experiences are so similar. I think the storyline was done very well, and I loved seeing how Idia grows from an event that no doubt affected him deeply and still continues to influence him to this day. It's clear that he cares deeply about both Orthos and will step up to protect them. I LOVE THAT FOR HIM, it's not as though Idia is completely throwing aside one brother for the other, he's acknowledging them both as his "true" brothers. The way he goes from laughing to crying in his post-OB flashback... Idia getting so mad at us attacking Phantom Ortho with lightning... the willingness to "go" with OG!Ortho to the world beyond... apologizing to Robo!Ortho for falling for the dream's delusion... Aaaah, it's just too good 😭
DIHLBASOFYIAYVYEBfsWPYWPF WHAT CAN I SAY... I like me a reliable onii-san character 🤡 I'M NOTHING IF NOT PREDICTABLE

Bonding Time part 5
Pairing: Timmy x Reader
Warnings: Smut.
Summary: The Best friend finds out.
Bonding Time pt5
A week later and they hadn’t heard anything from either of their parents again. After Greg walked in on them in bed together the step siblings thought they would hear from y/n’s mother, but they received only radio silence.
‘Well, to be fair how do you tell your new bride you walked in on your son and her daughter fucking like rabbits?’ Y/n asked over the phone hearing Timmy sniggering on the other end.
‘I mean it’s not something you blurt out at dinner while passing the carrots is it?’
Timmy hummed from his side, ‘True. But I thought we would hear something at least. You can’t tell me he walked back into that house all fake smiles and cheery ‘hellos’ after what he just came from? Now THAT’S unnatural.’
‘Yeah.’ She held up a dress in front of her standing in front of the mirror.
‘What are you doing? You’re distracted.’
‘I’m trying to find something to wear to this stupid party tonight.’
She heard him burst into laughter on the other side of the phone, ‘What is so funny?’
‘You got roped in to going to Chloe’s party tonight. Ha ha ha.’
‘Go fuck yourself Chalamet!’
She hung up the phone and tossed it on the bed when she heard her doorbell ring, she looked at the camera footage and saw it was Sarah and Emma and let them in.
She hung up the dress she had out and went to greet them.
‘Hey guys I’m in my room.’
The two girls came into her room kicking off their heels at the door and sitting on the bed, y/n grabbed her iPhone and put it in her dressing gown pocket, one so it wouldn’t break and two so they didn’t have a nosy in case Timmy messaged her.
‘So have you decided what to wear tonight?’ Emma asked flipping through a magazine she found on the bedside table.
‘No nothing yet, how about you?’
Both girls shook their head no.
‘Chloe is just losing her mind with this party, she really wants to impress her future in laws with this. Make them think she’s sophisticated and cultured.’ Sarah waved her hands in an exaggerated manner and y/n smiled and took out a dress from her wardrobe and held it up ‘Oooh that’s nice, is that Chanel?’ Y/n nodded and smiled.
‘Yeah I decided to treat myself.’
She didn’t tell her friends Timmy had bought it for her just because.
She knew her friends were wondering where she was getting all of this nice stuff and who was buying her it, but to be honest it was none of their business. Plus they wouldn’t get it either. They were also curious about the amount of time she and Timmy were spending together.
She removed her robe to try a dress on and heard gasps behind her, she looked behind her shoulder to see her friends staring at her body in shock. ‘What?’
‘Y/n your back!’ Emma stood up and slowly walked over to her. The fact she didn’t flinch from her convinced her friend she wasn’t being abused as she touched her back lightly.
‘I’ve been taking kick-boxing classes recently. It’s really fun.’
‘And the bite marks on your shoulders?! Are your sparring partners biting you?’ Sarah asked standing up with Emma to get a closer look.
‘They don’t hurt and there’s no internal damage so it’s no big deal.’
Y/n responded trying the dress on and looking in the mirror before shaking her head, ‘No good.’ Before removing and hanging it back up.
‘Y/n! We need to talk about this. Who is doing this?’
‘No one is doing this to me. Like I said I’m taking kick-boxing classes and it’s hardcore. Now let’s just get ready for this party.’
Y/n Heard her phone Ping in her pocket and grabbed it smiling at the message
“Apparently Stacey has been invited and insisted I go with her tonight.”
“This party just got a lot more fun.”
She locked the phone and put it back in her pocket seeing her friend’s faces.
‘What?’
‘Who was that?’ Emma asked casually.
‘My mom, why?’ Y/n lied.
Sarah shrugged ‘Just curious. You seemed to be spending a lot of time with Timothée lately.’
Y/n rolls her eyes walking over to the dresser ‘This shit again? He’s my step brother, our parents are married, so wether we like it or not, we need to try and get along with each other. Because according to my mother she’s in this for the long haul.’
‘We’re just concerned that’s all.’ Emma said calmly.
‘About what exactly?’ Y/n asks facing her friends.
‘Timothée said you tried to make a pass at him at Georgette’s 21st and he turned you down Sarah. So I’m getting along with him, and suddenly you’re so concerned about how much time I’m spending with him.’
Sarah’s eyes widened in shock ‘y/n that’s not the case at all. My god, we were stupid kids then, I’m completely over that.’
Y/n rolled her eyes, picking her things up off the floor and threw her gown back on as Emma piped in.
‘Y/n it’s just…. Whenever we’re all out together you and Timmy sit in a corner by yourselves whispering to each other and not getting involved in any conversations-
‘Oh I’m so sorry I don’t want to listen about the wedding that’s been happening for the past fucking six years. Jesus, I was bridesmaid at my mother’s wedding before I’ve even been asked to be Chloe’s.’
Sarah was about to speak again, when y/n’s phone pinged, she picked it up and looked at the screen. It was Timmy, apparently he was in the living room and he overheard most of what her friends had said to her about him.
‘I’ll be right back. Don’t go looking through my stuff you won’t find anything.’
She walked out of her bedroom closing the door behind her and went to meet Timmy in the living room.
She found him pacing in front of the sofa annoyed when he looked up and saw her approaching and walked over to her crushing his lips against hers in a heated kiss.
She kissed him back, before breaking away breathless.
‘Shhh. They’re in the bedroom still. We need to be quiet.’
He took a deep breath through his nose closing his eyes.
‘They have no right to talk to you like that y/n.’
‘I know. I know.’ She whispers stroking her thumb across his cheek, soothing him.
‘They’re the most nosiest people in my life. And I think Sarah is a bit jealous since you turned her down at Georgette’s 21st.’
‘Oh boohoo.’ He rolled his eyes feeling more calm and lay his head against her shoulder. ‘Are you going to the party tonight?’ She asked rubbing his back.
He nodded against her shoulder.
‘Stacey was invited, I’m very confused as to why though.’
Y/n smiles against his shoulder ‘Chloe’s way of showing off her kind side to her future in laws.’
Timmy chuckles against her and lifts his head to look at her.
‘I should go, but I will see you tonight.’
She nodded smiling when she heard her bedroom door open and her friends coming out to the living room.
They both parted and Timmy headed through to the kitchen, and y/n stood glaring at him with her arms folded across her chest.
‘Go and eat food at your own apartment.’
‘Why would I do that when I can raid your fridge?’ He smirks at her.
‘Seriously? You’re such a delinquent.’
Y/n’s friends came through and he rolled his eyes ‘Oh look, it’s Gretchen Weiner and Karen Smith.’
Y/n coughs to cover up her laugh as Sarah glared at him. ‘What the hell are you doing here?’
‘Performing open heart surgery.’ He rolls his eyes eating a potato chip. ‘Mind your own business!’
‘Well this is y/n’s apartment-
‘Right, y/n’s apartment, I don’t remember seeing your names on the fucking lease.’ Timmy bit back glaring.
‘OKAY! We get it, you don’t like each other, move on.’ Y/n held up her hands becoming bored.
Timmy decided to say his goodbyes and told y/n he would see her at the party.
Later at the party, y/n was sitting with her friends when Timmy entered with Stacey and they both approached their table and sat down. Timmy remained standing offering to get in a round, ‘I’ll come up with you I need to go to the ladies room anyways.’
Y/n and Timmy walked to the bar together as Emma watched them from the table where she saw them chatting close together. It was dim lighting in the room, but she still saw how close they were standing to each other and how they were subtly touching each other.
She also noticed how when Timmy leaned in to talk in her ear she would lean forward and smile hanging onto every word then laugh.
When the music began everyone headed to the dance floor, Timmy stayed seated although Stacey asked him to come with her, he declined. Emma saw from the dance floor y/n return from the restroom and sit across from Timothée, she saw him lean in whispering something to her and she nodded.
Emma got Sarah’s attention and nodded subtly to the two at the table as Timothée played with her fingers on one hand as she pushed his hair back smiling.
Y/n noticed they were being watched and moved away from Timmy as he sighed following her lead.
‘Your friends need to get a life of their own, it’s pathetic how invested they are in yours. Especially Sarah.’
Y/n nodded running her fingers through her hair.
‘Tell me about it, you know when she saw my back today she actually came over and TOUCHED me. She didn’t even ask before she put her fingers on my body,’
Timmy clenched his jaw grinding his teeth.
‘She needs to learn some fucking boundaries that woman.’
Y/n shook her head and took his hand before standing ‘Dance with me.’
He followed her to the dance floor and took her hand in his as a slower song came on and swayed with her.
‘I think Sarah and Emma are onto us.’ Y/n whispered to him.
‘Who cares what those two think? Emma was caught getting taken from behind by her father’s nephew at her parents wedding anniversary so she has no right to judge us.’
‘And Sarah?’ She raised her eyebrow at him.
‘Sarah is a pathetic and nosy little wench who has nothing else better to do than to involve herself in things that’s nothing to do with her. If she did confront you about us she would be more devastated at the fact you didn’t tell HER rather than the fact that you’re fucking your step brother.’
Y/n chuckled against him as the song finished and they separated.
Timmy looked around and saw both women look away knowing they had been watching them and smirked.
‘We have an audience.’ Y/n looked in the direction Timmy nodded in and rolled her eyes.
‘They are unbelievable.’
Timmy pulled her into a corner and kissed her gently holding her face between his hands.
She kissed him back wrapping her arms around him before they broke apart breathing heavily.
After the party began to die down, Timmy offered to take y/n home and she immediately accepted even though Sarah had already offered to take her home.
Y/n went home with Timmy without hesitation. Both Emma and Sarah had been weirded out by both of their behaviour throughout the entire evening, even Chloe mentioned it at one point.
So Sarah decided to follow them home. Just to make sure he didn’t take advantage of her friend, because she didn’t trust Chalamet whatsoever.
Timmy and y/n were walking home talking about how decent the party turned out to be.
‘They could’ve had a better selection of beer, or any kind of beer for that matter.’ He complained as y/n chuckled finally entwining their fingers while they walked home.
‘I think she was going for sophisticated to impress the in laws so she had the finest wines and oldest ports and whiskey and scotch.’ He lifted their hands and kissed her knuckles nibbling each fingertip.
She watched him before he turned and kissed her gently before deepening it.
She kissed back and pushed him against the nearest building leaning into him as he wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her closer against him.
Sarah watched the entire thing in disgust as they broke their make out session and walked into y/n’s building together.
She walked home not believing what she had just witnessed with her own eyes and fathomed how they could do that? And why didn’t y/n tell her and what did their parents think?
Timmy shoved y/n against the wall with a thud shutting the door behind him and began kissing her neck sliding the hem of her short dress up he thighs and bit her shoulder.
Y/n gasped as he grabbed her thighs and lifting her up to wrap her legs around him and crushed his lips to hers in a rough kiss.
She ripped his shirt open letting the buttons scatter across the room as he pulled her dress off her body and carried her to the bedroom.
He dropped her onto the bed and removed his jeans and boxers in one go and crawled on top of her kissing his way up her body.
She breathed out his name as he nipped and kissed her chest as he slid into her making her gasp.
He entwined their fingers and pinned them above her head so she couldn’t flip them this time and took control as he began to move against her leaning down to capture her lips in a heated kiss.
He thrust harder and faster into her as she rocked against him panting into his neck, he freed her hands to wrap his arms under and around her waist and held her tighter against him as he slammed into her causing the full bed frame to hit the wall. She clung to his shoulders, as he rammed into her holding him against her, she grabbed his face and kissed him hungrily feeling his tongue slide in to her mouth and bit his lip causing him to slam particularly hard into her making her leap further up the pillows.
‘Timmy’ she gasped against his shoulder as he pulled her up to sit on his lap and let her ride him. She pulled him against her chest and bounced against him hard hearing him whimper and claw her back and even her waist this time as she rode him. They came together in a shaking sticky mess panting into each other’s mouths.
They fell back together landing at the bottom of the large bed tangled in the sheets damp with sweat and breathing hard.
They had no idea Sarah knew their secret now. All they knew at that moment was each other as they lay in each other’s arms kissing tiredly as Timmy drew circles on y/n’s damp skin where the sheet had tangled around her waist.
They fell asleep not knowing Sarah was in her own apartment telling Emma about what she had seen.

Question, so far in BG3 what do you think about each companion and who is your favorite ?
Personally, like many, I pick Karlach !
I like the companions but I am still figuring them out (which is funny considering I have 50 hours into the game which is longer than the entirety of Mass Effect 1).
Lae'zel - Completely out of her depth culturally but at this point unaware of it. Very black and white in her thinking regard right and wrong... and yet surprisingly VERY quick to move someone from the "wrong" side in her head over to the "right" side. I was shocked by how she instantly liked Karlach the second Karlach explained her situation to us, and had 0 problem in immediately being like "this is a good one." despite her history. Thinks she's big and tough but is actually just a tsundere. Reminds me of Worf.
Gale - shockingly quick to latch on and trust people. To a degree that suggests he's a little bit desperate for affection. However it's not manipulative or anything, it's very genuine. He just trusts too quickly and will drink up any positive interaction like a man dying of thirst. possible praise kink.
Astarion - Like I said in the other post; essentially a cat that's been mistreated its whole life and will now swat and hiss at anyone trying to be nice to him simply out of fear. Constantly afraid but is hiding it behind sass or bitching. Only member left in the team who is still stuck on neutral in terms of relationship with Tav. Is constantly annoyed with me for being nice to the broken the beaten and the damned. Almost certainly because his experiences have taught him if you're not powerful you will be abused by those who are and it's upsetting to see someone who doesn't follow this internal logic of his. Needs a hug and a hot chocolate.
Wyll - Guy of all time. But he does come with hot demon mommy so that's a plus.
Shadowheart - obviously grew up a spoiled little princess by people who are actively grooming her for some fucked up religious role and have been telling her for her whole life that it's TOTALLY awesome and TOTALLY special and that she's TOTALLY special for being trained for it when really they're just brainwashing her into thinking getting used and and forced into something without her consent is something she actually wants and she should be proud of it. She hasn't figured this out yet tho and mostly still has amnesia about it which is 100% just more grooming. For some reason unlike my friend who found her insufferable and bratty, she's been very nice to me. Sucks to use in a fight tho.
Karlach - Ray of fucking sunshine. Somehow both the mom friend AND the little sister friend. Most purehearted member of the whole lot. Has the ADHD experience of literally vibrating in place but getting told by the entire world to "calm down" and "sit still". Uncomplicated but not in a bad way. Nothing but good vibes all the time. Has never had a bad thought about anybody. Deserves the fucking world.

Yup, finally time to talk about Trazyn...
I put it off because hey, everyone else deserves some love and attention...but Trazyn deserves more, sorry he is just built different.
It will probably shock no one that Trazyn is my favorite 40k character. He's what got me into Warhammer in the first place. I imagine I'm not the only one who went through the "oh, funny meme steal guy lol" to "guess I'll read Infinite and the Divine" to "can't be invited to parties because I refuse to think about anything that's not Necrons or my new plastic crack addiction" pipeline.
But why is this weird sexy space kleptomaniac so compelling? The answer might surprise you!
(it won't for a while but bear with me there's a twist coming)
Why do we all like Trazyn? First of all, he's easy to grasp. Indiana Jones meets the Collector in 40k. One sentence and you know what he's about. That's invaluable for pitching a character. And then you watch him and he's clever, he's hyper-competent, he's funny. In the grimdark future, this guy makes you laugh! He screws with everyone. And yeah, he's easy to meme, but that's just part of his charm.
He fits into nearly any 40k story too. Space Marines? Aeldar? Chaos? Tau? Trazyn wants an artifact and he's messing with *insert main characters here* to get it. Or maybe *insert main characters here* need something and he's the only one who has it. Doesn't really matter what or why, the second Trazyn shows up he can play off anyone. As an uneasy ally, an opponent in a negotiation, or in a fight. He has an incredible dry wit that makes him super entertaining (especially in a setting where characters can be a bit...serious).
And Trazyn ultimately has pretty sympathetic motives. He wants to preserve, to collect, and tell stories through his museum. Museums are cool! Culture is neat! Sure he's a bit...unethical, but he's far from the worst dude in 40k so he's very easy to root for, even if he's a side character or antagonist.
So yeah, witty, devious, immortal museum curator. Perfect character, right?
Well...here's that twist.
Trazyn is actually (in my opinion) really, really hard to write for as a protagonist of his own story.
See most commercial fiction is structured around a character who wants something, but something else gets in their way. Frodo wants to take the ring to Mordor but all of middle earth plus some evil wizards, orcs, giant spiders, etc. are in the way. The issue with Trazyn (on paper) is that he doesn't truly want anything. Sure there are specific artifacts and people he wants for his collection, but that's surface level. Hunting down random cool space stuff is not a change from his day to day, so focusing a whole story around that might be fun for a while, but it wouldn't stick with you. Because any deep, emotional desires he has are fulfilled. He has power, he has purpose, he has his own planet that shapes itself to his will.
Trazyn is used to being in control. Of Solemnace, of his expeditions, of his negotiations. If plan A goes south he has twelve other options, and a few back up plans, and probably an ork warband attached to his belt if he needs it. Oh, and he's immortal. And can't be hurt. Which again, is hella fun, but how do you have suspense or stakes with all of that? How do you write an interesting story for the guy that has everything?
Enter Orikan.
Orikan is one of the only things that introduces chaos into Trazyn's existence. Orikan can break into Trazyn's house, break his stuff, and get away with it. When Orikan is around, the things Trazyn loves are in danger. Orikan shattered relics from their people's history and Trazyn failed to save them. He tried to catch one piece and it shattered because his hand was metal. The thing that usually makes him untouchable contributed to his loss. That is heartbreaking to read. Sure he can fight elves and dinosaurs and steal the most incredible things, but Trazyn can be made vulnerable in the right circumstances.
The thing he wants throughout Infinite and the Divine is not the McGuffin Mysterios. It's revenge. But because Orikan is his equal and opposite, he can't get it easily. There's an obstacle. Which means we have a story on our hands.
There's another scene that I find really striking from that book: Trazyn and his human assistant on Serenade. This old man who Trazyn kinda...mind controlled into service, but also provided him and his family with the best education, medical care, career opportunities etc. Trazyn didn't have to do that, but he is the type of greedy where if something is "his" he takes care of it. That includes (for better or worse) that human man and his family. Blips on the radar to an immortal being, but those are Trazyn's blips so they get the best a blip can ask for (aside from free will but shhhhhh.)
But that doesn't mean Trazyn can prevent the inevitable. His assistant gets old without him even noticing. The man has reached the end of his life, and that is something Trazyn can't control. And he's emotional about it. Not like devastated (it's just a human after all, basically his hamster just died) but it throws him for a loop.
Oh hey, speaking of how Trazyn takes care of things that he considers his...
Trazyn never really gets close to killing Orikan. He says he wants to. He acts like it. That's the story we set up. Trazyn shoots him in the face. But does he try to permanently kill Orikan? Does he ever act with any true cruelty?
He does once. When Orikan was weak and vulnerable, Trazyn crushed Orikan's skull with his foot, and that's so out of character it's our clearest indication as a reader that something is wrong. That's when we realize the song has Trazyn ensnared because normally he would not do that. He wouldn't treat his greatest enemy and rival that way which is... certainly interesting.
And then of course there's that scene at the end. When Orikan is burned and afraid and unable to defend himself, Trazyn doesn't even try to hurt him. He is gentle, careful, he makes sure Orikan isn't permanently damaged. After everything they've done to each other over 10,000 years (and that's just the events of the book, their rivalry is older), it doesn't even occur to Trazyn to harm Orikan in that moment.
That to me is the real secret that makes Trazyn more than a meme character. That greed that makes him care for things, cultures, places, and people. Those moments where he isn't in control. The combination of the two that means something is at stake. He has a deep love for the universe despite this being such a nihilistic setting. That love drives him to do ridiculous things, but that's the core (I think) of why we love watching him cavort around the galaxy so much.

Courtship
For @muzzleroars
On this post, I write a MichaelxV2 fanfic. Fluff writing about the Angelic courtship dance performed by a robot so I decided to be like this part. (Where they dance. Haha. I hope you won't mind 😅) Plus pronouns for V2 will be He/Her btw. I had edited out last minute edits before posting this so I hope you'll like it.
Enjoy.
——————————————————————————————————
"...And V1 had done that? To your brother?"
Michael nodded. He couldn't and still can't, believe that Raphael had helped but it made his already literally rotting heart flutter with reassurance that he tried.
"Yes indeed. He had helped the Machine to court Gabriel into marriage but I am surprised that he helped regardless."
"It must've been shocking." V2 tilted her head to the right.
Michael laughed gently as he placed his hand on his helm, a finger tenderly tracing the cracks. "I can't ridicule him for doing this." he spoke after a moment, still tracing the helmet's cracks mindlessly. "He is my brother and helping others is in our nature."
Michael finally removed his hand and turned towards the red automation. A mirror. A near perfect mirror of her processor painted as red as blood as the protector of peace. Blood tubes painted blue to ensure that he stood out of V1, the newly risen robotic angel and symbol of his brother's love Gabriel willing to give.
V2's processers is recording her findings on culture of Heaven. She had learned a lot from Gabriel in Fraud Layer she lived in, only from what he had been told from his perspective but when offered to see it for herself. It is truly a place of Paradise for what's left of Humanity to go to. Free of pain and suffering and found something she had been lacking in her making: Peace.
Still, the courtship dance is one of the private parts of Heaven over an millennia after Lucifer had fallen down with many other angels as it is considered a taboo by the Father. He had seen them prior to the former banished into Hell itself. The Hell that she and V1 had been born into when New Peace was established.
Curiously a few of his eight wings twitched slightly with another question in her hard drives as Michael took a sip from a cup provided by Raphael, due to a rotting jaw that seemingly be made of light gold, he was recommended to only drinks now.
"May I ask you again, Michael?"
"Please do," He accepted, "What is it on your mind, Machine?"
He hesitated. "Have you ever been courted before?"
Michael nearly spit out his drink.
"I beg your pardon?"
"Has anyone ever court you before?"
Michael went silent for a moment. He placed a palm on his exposed ribcage adorn with colorful radiant jewels and chains of sliver and gold.
"No." He answered honesty. "I have not been courted by any an angel nor human, Machine." he shook his head lightly. "Many had looked at and up to me as a leader chosen to lead His people and man kind throughout these centuries." He placed his hand again on his helm with a hint of flustered and nonsenses of the question. Turning away from V2. "Many of them knew this is an forbidden act to do, and even worse, the Prince of Heaven in place of Lucifer's and the Lord. I never even try to do courtshiping ritual."
V2 looked at him for a moment.
"Michael." V2 said finally, with a little bit of worry but confidence so little in his machinal voice. "Do you think that I..." Michael turned to look at her once again. "That I... that I do the heavenly courtship dance?"
"You?" Michael could almost chuckle but it was raspy due to a ruined larynx, it was ruined due to the event had had tried to sever his Light in attempt to show his loyalty to Lord he had long-since searched for... and Failed. He will save that story for later yet the machine like V2 could do the ritual is rather funny to him but...
But since Gabriel fell, since V2 was rebuilt and since, for him too much to bare; Even tried binding his brother before reason was struck into him by Gabriel's words, even in Hellish language, they still reached him and even worsen to do to him, he had tried to get him to see V1's corruption by having V2 himself as his date but... All of those failures, taken away his pride but made room for love, humble and a door open for a way for his own sins to be forgiven.
The plan to "open his brother's eyes" had backfired when feelings of this machine, the same way as Gabriel had and... To be honest when he looked back on it. He guessed that's what the race of Man calls "Petty."
Nonetheless, Michael had learned more of V2 being a replacement, ruined and will perish one day like himself will too. He could... He could watch her try. And if he was courted, well, only he will decide to tell or not tell the masses of Heaven.
"Well," He began to say, thoughtfully. "I cannot why not."
V2's optic seem to opened up a little, stars in his eyes with wings flutter a little behind him as he stood upright and then hand over his metallic abdomen and bowed with another arm extended out from him.
Head rose up and then one foot back and then he jumped into the air in a twirl, golden glowing wings flared out in display and then sticks the landing on two feet like a ballerina. Silent amazement resonating in Michael as he watched on. On the right and left of four appendages each. The right bottom one twitched slightly before one after another followed suit going up and then on the upper left appendage repeated this going downwards.
Then them both do it upwards and downwards before crouching down on fours as eight of them gone together to make it seem like they had only one pair of two wings before slowly raises up on two feet once again. Before too long, the eight wings came back but yellow faded into sapphire blue as two of each go downward and then soon out on display.
"This is..." She started to say, "This is so confusing to me, how do you all do it?" Michael, watching the progress had come to an metaphorical halt, placing his drink down and then stand up. He was feeling ridiculous for explaining this but he will feel even more not doing so. He said "Allow me." simply but his voice is gentler by the sound of it.
In his own display of wings, his four wings unfolded in brilliant shades and gradients of pinks, purples, magentas, and violets for a machine or soul to see. The wings then came around and covering Michael slowly and purposely to insight curiosity from the latter and then spun away before he unfolded the wings and then dashed towards V2 before stopping in front of him.
The helm barely reached his ribcage and Michael is staring down at them before crouching down, wings flapping down to touch the floor before he stood up and hands grabbing onto forearms (so not to tear the skin and flesh off) after placing them behind his back and circled around him gracefully and leisurely.
V2, stunned but mesmerized, watching the head chief prince closely with wings behind her gently lowered down with her CPU was recording this in wonder before abruptly disappeared in a flash of light. Her optic blinked and looked to her left and right before something shines behind him.
Before he could turn to see, a pair of hands quickly covered his optic and wings enveloped around her as feeling of a helm lightly touching the surface of her own as his head was lifted up a little. Hands then removed themselves from his optic to see Michael roving above him, allowing the small robot to bathe in the glowing lights of his wings.
Both of them lost in a void of a colorful light.
Eight wings of his own twitch with surprise softly, blue began to share a gradient of light pink as he looked up at the Prince of Heaven before one hand lightly taking a hand, a hand that is nearly identical to V2's left one before raising it up and then spun the peace-keeping machine around with trails of neon blue and pink following behind her as four wings flown away steadily.
He kept spinning them to his right before letting go and catching V2 as a leg was raised up while he leaned backwards before lifting upward, lightly urged by a hand on her back with her wings fanning out as she was brought close to his chest.
Feet kept going in a dance of wings of beauty and grace for as long as it could go, a ritual was in fact an success by this point.
Midway, Michael had his hand on V2's back again and the other holding his hand, fingers intertwined, as they looked at each other.
"You have a surprising amount of grace for a machine." Michael commented, looking at his optic with interest.
"Oh yeah?" V2 chuckled lightly. "Well, you've got a surprising amount of bugs for an angel."
Michael chuckled at the joke. She wasn't wrong but it was good to laugh once in a while.
"And the expecting tact."
They then spun around as they let go, wings behind them before they flapped, neon and natural light coming off from both pairs and soon they came back together with hands holding onto them and then twirled as they held on. Wings made from metal and divine light flapped and fanned out before fluttering and danced on their accord as their feet had became accustomed to the ritual.
They continued on in their rhythm of the heart beats and fans spinning before letting go.
At last, they bowed to one another.
"So, this is what the courtship dance is like." V2 commented as he turned to look at his wings, colors fading into the tips of his wings as they went from pink to blue and finally going back to default yellow. "Dance with someone you are close to."
Michael laughed, both lightly and worryingly as he tilted his head. "It is, Machine." he added. He is worried.
Someone will know that he had been courted and even worse, it was with this machine but they are in his private quarters, the chambers that was once... Once Lucifer's. Still, since they had danced the ritual here, this could be where a little white secret could lie until he will confess this sin. This sin that made him happy.
Michael cleared his throat gently as his wings folded and soon faded from existence. "W-Well, I enjoyed our time together." he said as his fist was placed behind his back and closed his eyes. "Please," He wanted V2 to leave back to his apartment but he hesitated. "It is getting late, do you think you can travel back to the Eighth Layer?"
V2 looked at the pillar that overlooks outside, stars have already decorated the skies as night time has begun and below were a small city and villages built since the Uproar after the Father's death. "I will but-" V2 turned over to Michael, with another question in mind. "Do you think that I could stay here, but for the night?" he asked as he used his hand to rub his arm. "I haven't seen an actual night like this."
No. No you will not.
That's what he wanted to say.
"Of course, but only for one night... V2." He answered this instead.
V2 light up a little before bowing her head. "Thank you, Michael."
Michael bowed his head as well. "You are welcome, I hope you will enjoy the night." he said as he watched him sitting down and crossed his legs on one of many luxurious pillows to watch at the skies with wonder and silent joy.
Michael just wanted to offer her a room of her own but stopped himself. "Have a good night, V2." He bided good night before he turned and then headed towards his own resting chambers as V2 bids him a good evening as well.
Oh God Almighty, what is he even doing?
He had offered the machine to sleep over in the Eighth Sphere of Heaven for the night and only for the night. And all after that ritual of courtship!
He moved a fabric leading into his room away and letting it fall behind him as his head looked at it. He turned to his left arm and noticed new flowers have grown from the wounds. He must've accidentally scratched it during that dance as he carefully recognized them.
Peace lilies, cosmos and apple blooms.
No doubt this was related to the dance.
Michael turned to the fabric once again and peaked to see V2, still there right where he left her, watching the view and a dim lunar light before letting the fabric drop once again. It was the first time he had participated the ritual and he hoped it would also be the last yet.
His wings made from glass and metal, stamina long enough to keep up with him and the look in the optic. An angel of iron and blood he had greeted as an plan to restore Gabriel yet he could've known that this robot...
Never meant to be an replacement.
Striped of purpose.
Failed in securing something far from her reach.
Stoic.
Intelligent.
V2 was just like himself.
He could come to talk to Raphael for advise on this newfound friendship but still on the same matter, maybe he could ask him if they could dance one more time before turning in for the night.

Let me take care of you
Summary: Shuri is feeling the whole world on her shoulders. Good thing she has a good girlfriend to help her out.
A/N: I wanted to write some fluff..sue me.
Tag Gang: @s0lam33y @mal-urameshi @xchoxix @somethingcleaverandwhitty @ashleighshaw
Shuri is feeling stressed out because she has a lot of work to do. Between her soon-to-be marriage with the love of her life, Riri, and keeping up her appearance with the council. The young queen was running herself ragged.
“You know you could ask for some help,” Okoye told once when the pair were going over new updates of the midnights. Shuri shook her head, the queen was more than capable of doing this. It was easy, Shuri thought as she cleaned up some of the mess she made before going to another meeting and making an appearance to the miners who worked so hard collecting the precious metal. Plus it’s not like Riri could help, the American was just now taking classes about the history and cultures of Wakanda.
Shuri couldn’t burden her love with her stress levels right now. If I can’t this stress on a daily what happens if I have to deal with something worse than this Shuri thought, it’ll be all worth it once I get married she read through potential new improvements for Wakanda. Shuri sighed for what must be the third time, she knew she just needed to break down some of her work into smaller tasks, even if that sounded like an undoable.
Riri was a genius, she knew that. Other people knew that so it wasn’t really rocket science to see how stressed out Shuri have been the past couple of weeks. Riri knows how prideful her soon-to-be wife is. It was something Riri loved and hated when Shuri didn’t take care of herself. Once the lessons that Riri had to take were done for the day. The short woman made her way to the lab. There was Shuri in her serious face focusing, the queen was shocked to see Riri who simply took her hand and left the lab.
“What are you doing?” Shuri asked now that they left the lab, “And where are we going?”
Riri still holding her hand. Riri gave her a soft smile at her, “You need some TLC.”
“TLC?” Shuri repeated as they made it to their chambers. Riri let go of her hand for Shuri’s. Shuri quickly followed her love in the adjoined bathroom. Riri was testing the running water before placing soap making some bubbles.
“Great,” Riri said as she stood up, “Take your clothes off and get in.”
Shuri smirked at her, “At least wait until after the wedding, my love.”
“Like you believe in the concept of waiting for marriage,” Riri rolled her eyes, “Haha you’re so funny, kitten. I’m serious.”
Once Shuri was in the water it was like all her worries were wasted away. Shuri couldn’t hold the relaxing sigh. Lavender of the bubbles was inhaled through Shuri’s nose. I could stay here for the next ten minutes then I’ll work on a new update firewall for GRIOT. After that I-
“I know you have been working extra hard because the wedding and the council are asking more than should out of you,” Riri said waking up Shuri to listen to her love as Riri ran the rag against Shuri’s skin, “But you have to remember to be gentle with yourself, Shuri. You have been through more than anyone should’ve to go through.”
“Yes I understand that,” Shuri commented as she turned to look at Riri, “But it’s a part of the job. My grandparents could handle it. My parents could handle it, even T’Challa handled it with ease. It should be easy for me as well.”
Riri looked at her as she placed her hand on Shuri’s hand, “It will be once you let us help you.”
Shuri bit her lip, “I-I don’t think I know how to…”
Riri smiled at the comment as their nose touched, “Don’t worry kitten. Just let me take care of you.”

Now asking: how do you think would be Edd's relationship with the kids post-BPS, who seems to be the least commented and speculated. In the show proper we see the kids like and tolerate Edd the most and Edd is fairly nice and gentle to them, but he never seemed that interested on making friends with them compared to Eddy or even Ed. I guess every one in cul-de-sac living in peace always had been Edd's dream, but he don't seem to have so much in common with them nevertheless. I guess he could form a genuine, close bond with Nazz, Jimmy (and who know, Sarah), but his relationship with Rolf and Jonny always is somewhere between either being ''neutral friendly'' or just undefined. Ideas?
(Unpopular headcanon: I think would be really funny if Kevin and Eddy ultimately perceive how much in common they do have, would get closer and closer, and become best friends... and Edd would be somewhat jealous or resented of this, like shovelchin had kind of ''stole'' his best friend. Quite unlikely, but a really funny scenary on my mind).
yeah i personally don't think edd has much interest in being friends with most of the other kids on any meaningful level. he and jimmy's friendship could very well continue to grow after bps, but i don't see him making an effort to hang out with kevin, jonny, rolf, sarah, etc. he and rolf would be semi-friends because he's intrigued by rolf's culture and rolf has always been pretty decent to the eds. plus he's good friends with ed. jonny is also ed's buddy but edd still finds jonny kind of unbearable and keeps his distance. edd and kevin have their own drama (see below) and don't get along, and he flat out just doesn't like sarah. but of course he's very personable when eddy drags him along to the occasional shindig.
he and may are friendly, again, mostly because of her relationship with ed. he and marie strike up a conversation when he notices that her interest in him has significantly diminished. edd (being the snob he is) is surprised to find that she's really smart and funny oh and gay. he's possibly the first person she tells bc she knows he's a good guy. lee on the other hand, doesn't trust him as far as she can throw him and thus does not like him.
edd and nazz flirt back and forth for a long time and eventually date in high school. my own hcs about it are still sort of being developed but i for sure think they'd date and possibly maintain or rekindle a friendship after they breakup. eddy doesn't care!!!!.... 😐 he just thinks it's funny that-
kevin and eddy do have stuff in common but not so much that i see them building a real friendship over it- certainly not long-term. eddy might end up redirecting his admiration for bro onto kevin after bps bc he does still crave that sweet validation from someone (older?) who he sees as cool, well-liked, masculine, has a giant chin, etc. he'd be disappointed again when being friends w kevin doesn't live up to his overly idealized expectations. during the time that they're being weirdly pally, edd is on standby waiting for the other shoe to drop. he just hates to say "i told you so", but does he really?
kevin revokes eddy's dork status and invites him to the get-togethers. at first it's out of pity for what he witnessed but he's shocked when eddy turns out to be fun to be around. eddy's not really interested in the things that kevin is (bmx, monster trucks, 60 minutes) but pretends to be so that he can fit in. and get jawbreakers.
but that's exhausting and they start to grow apart when eddy gets too comfortable and starts letting the less palatable parts of his personality come through, namely his irritability and bluntness. by high school they're on not-so-great terms again, in part due to the whole edd and nazz thing really pissing kev off. he expects eddy to do something about it, "tell double dickweed to stay away from nazz" type stuff.
#this is clearly just my hc shit and not necessarily based on “analysis” per se#the usual disclaimer applies: everyone's entitled to their opinion#there's another ask in my inbox but i'll get to that one later#text

It would be interesting to see Hades meet other death gods in other religions and see how their afterlives go. It would be fun to see him contrast, especially the Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Persian, Celtic and Norse,
I think so too! Hades is known to love to chat and schmooze with others, so I think he’d enjoy hanging out with the other death gods lol! I think like that last ask, he’d probably be kinda jealous and have a bit of culture shock to learn that some of the other death gods are more well respected by mortals and their fellow gods than he is in Greece and Rome lmao. But yeah, I feel like he’d treat them like he treats his villain buddies lol. Like he’s just cool with them and hangs out with them, maybe has like poker nights or something 😂 also I feel like he’d low key gloat about the fact that he’s a notorious villain and the other death gods are just like “oh okay….cool” lmaoooo
And, of course, he’d be bragging about his wife and kids like the husband and dad he is 😂 pulls out pictures of his kids from his wallet lmaooo. I’m sure Hades doesn’t have a wallet and pictures weren’t invented until WAY in the future, but it’s funny to think about (plus, nothing’s impossible with Disney magic lmao, maybe Hades time traveled and got a wallet and camera idk lmaoooo)

Hi,
So I finished the novel Queen's Gambit by Elizabeth Freemantle and am now extremely angry need to decompress and filter out her garbage I'm shocked that Penguin House published this book and that it is getting made into a movie. To portray young Princess Elizabeth as willingly seeking Seymour out and seducing him is vile. Parr's bitchy handmaid Dot finds them in bed together. What on Earth? No evidence for that. Then Catherine Parr gets angry, blames Elizabeth and they don't reconcile after she leaves. Heartbreaking. Plus, the portrayal of Catherine Parr is horrid there is no evidence she or her stepdaughter Meg were raped during the Pilgrimage of Grace, a devout woman like Catherine wouldn't be contemplating killing either of her husbands, or rejoicing in the prospect of being damned to hell as she puts it after Henry VIII dies. (Maybe with Henry she would think about it but not actually go through with it). I got the impression that this author had an anti-Christian as well as anti-Elizabeth attitude. Tried Sisters of Treason another book of hers but it was also bad. I want to send her an angry letter now calling out her disgusting portrayal of young Elizabeth. Did you send in a review or a note to the author after you read it?
Don't forget Dot's final monologue about Why Elizabeth Is Such A Bitch -- It's Almost Understandable That She's Such a Bitch-Slut.
It's common with historical fiction, really, to not understand the way that religion historically worked. It's very easy to put our feelings on religion, whatever they might be, onto historical figures in an attempt to make them More Like Us, but the simple reality is that they were living in a totally different cultural context. Characters are either religious fanatics so extreme that they make Frollo think "Hm, maybe they're overdoing it a tiny bit", they're Secretly Atheists, or religion just doesn't cross their mind ever (unless, in Tudor media, it's to establish them as a Cool Modern Protestant.)
As for what I did...honestly, put the book aside and thought about every single decision in my life that had led to me both reading and finishing it. As you can see by the fact that I still remember it in vivid detail, it holds a special place in my Hall of Shame. (And it isn't even batshit insane enough to be FUNNY, unfortunately.)
But, my piece of totally unsolicited advice that you are perfectly free to discard at your earliest convenience? ...when you do medieval Irish stuff. Or medieval Celtic stuff in general. You will NEVER see your field faithfully or even sensitively portrayed on page. Every single depiction you get will be based on old stereotypes, colonialist tropes, and outdated information. I've read things about my faves, in particular, that would make most people's hair stand up on end. Things that are truly, deeply vile, that are on par with the depiction of Elizabeth here, or even worse. And it is easy to be angry, it's understandable to be angry, and God knows that my friends have heard me ranting in the DMs. And when I was younger, I was, regularly. And then I got exhausted, because anger is exhausting, especially when it's you and your anger versus a tidal wave of misinformation. I didn't stop getting angry, no. But I started to use it as a tool, not as an explosive -- I let it fuel me, I used it for my scholarship, putting all these different pieces of pop culture about my field in conversation with one another and noting common trends, as well as making comparisons to trends in other areas to figure out what, in our contemporary cultural landscape, is causing us, as a general group, at this point in time, to portray these things in a certain way, as well as how we have portrayed them over time. I have built my career, at least in part, on defending the undefendable, on studying the ink blotches of historiography to see where the historical or literary records meet the popular image, specifically looking at figures who are frequently portrayed as villainous and monstrous. I don't deal in happy endings, I can't when I step in after their final death scenes, after the point where even the possibility of their deaths meaning *something* is gone, because they don't even get the satisfaction of being well remembered. I never expect to see my faves well portrayed -- sometimes, I'm surprised, but it is truly, deeply, RARE.
You send a note to an author, no matter how well-intentioned, and it's easy to write off. The author submitted that work for publication, it's done. They're still getting royalties off of them, whatever that means in the current hellacious publishing landscape, in this case, she even has a movie. They might care, but honestly? They probably won't. They can dismiss you as a crazed, unhinged fan, regardless of how much thought and effort you've put into the critique. You've wasted all that high quality, undiluted anger for something that won't have any tangible effect. My advice, instead? Feel your anger, let the hate flow through you, especially when it reflects biases like sexism, racism, and homophobia, sharpen it, and then use it -- it doesn't have to be in conference presentations or journal articles or any of the trappings of academia, but use it.
Write reviews, absolutely, put it into conversations with other pieces of Tudor and Elizabethan fiction, especially about young Elizabeth (Hell, compare it to, say, Elizabeth R, Becoming Elizabeth, Young Bess, or Lady Bess (Toho 2014/2018), just for examples of the young Elizabeth's life off the top of my head that dramatize the life of Elizabeth), see what other people have said, in journal articles, sure, but also in blog articles or GoodReads reviews online, without necessarily even talking to them, but just to get a survey of what they think and why they think it, and see what you can do. Why do we want to portray Elizabeth this way? Is it a desire to "knock her off her throne?" Portray her as a nymphomaniac bitch slut to contrast with the "Gloriana" image? Is it that we're uncomfortable with the topic of CSA? Or we don't like to think of it as something that historically occurred? (Especially when you compare it to the ongoing bimboification of Katherine Howard, even in allegedly sympathetic biographies.) Is it that we still don't want to believe that it could have happened? That we're willing to give more sympathy to a man than to a child? Some combination of all of them? And are we seeing progressively more nuanced portrayals, or are we seeing more of the same across the board? (I feel like Seymour, at least, has gone from being a romantic hero in Young Bess to being portrayed as genuinely manipulative, even if the execution is still lacking.) On the reverse side, are people more willing to defend, say, Elizabeth I and Catherine Howard than other historical women, specifically because of what they represent and because of their high profile status? Is there a double-edged sword here? Let your anger fuel you.

A story in two parts... 🙃
The Apple Nectar actually ended up being okay quality though! Not too shabby for Lea's first attempt.
As promised, my thoughts on nectar making are below the cut ↓
The nectar making skill is built slowly and gained at a much slower rate than horseback riding, for instance. I'm assuming that's because it's a 5-tier skill instead of 10-tier skill, but Lea didn't level up to level 2 until 4 or 5 bottles later. 🥴
That being said: even a poor, unaged bottle of nectar goes for 55 simoleons. That's a good profit, especially if you're growing your own produce, so it's a lucrative skill right off the bat. Considering that Lea can't get a job because a horse and a ranch are basically a full-time job, it's nice to have a skill that can help pay the bills. I also love the "aging" rack because, surprisingly, it's functional! Hallelujah! I'm so tired of getting a plethora of cute, decorative objects that serve no function or even go as far to allude to an actual skill without providing it (I'm looking at you, woven basket decor items - but more on that later). However, I had no idea how long it took to age a bottle of nectar. I'm guessing it is worth the wait and will increase the price, quality, and potency when consumed...but I'd had a bottle of apple nectar put away for a few days and it still hadn't aged. (I just looked it up and Google says 1 week, which feels reasonable in "sim time." I was worried it would be longer.)
I do wish there were a few more animations while making nectar just so it could be more interesting to watch, but honestly I don't think it takes that long to produce a bottle in comparison to other skills in the game (like gardening... GOD growing and tending crops in TS4 is excruciatingly tedious). Plus, if you have the "rancher" skill, you can sometimes get additional bottles out of one nectar-making session, so that's really nice. Visually, I'd compare this skill to knitting and cross-stitching due to its repetition, and if you're wondering what it looks like... well, the trailer shows it all lol. I don't think there's much to it: they stomp a little, fall, get up, repeat until the nectar is complete. Then they step out, seal the bottle, and the bottle goes into their inventory. There are some pretty funny expressions you can get though (outtake below).
Because this skill's animation is pretty repetitive and simple, I think they should have thrown one or even two more skills in there. After all, this pack is $40. Basket weaving, as I mentioned above, would even used a similar animation to an already existing in-game skill (cross stitching) so I think this would have been fairly easy to implement. In fact, I'm still shocked it isn't a part of this pack. There are some good decorative objects and CAS items that allude to Native culture, but by and large the pack lacks actual substance to represent actively living in these cultures - I think skills like basket weaving or pottery would have been a great way to add substance to the pack AND create an opportunity to talk more about Native American cultures and pay proper homage to their traditions and skillsets. I would have loved seeing elder native sims mentoring young sims in basket weaving like they can do with knitting, for instance... that would have been so adorable. 🥺❤️ It just feels like a real missed opportunity on their part. One recipe (smh) and a couple decorative objects/cas items are a good start, but more could have definitely been done. If modders can implement these things for free, game devs should have no problem implementing these features. ESPECIALLY when you consider the pack's asking price... and I stand by that!
All that being said, I am pleased with this skill and find the animations cute, but it's certainly not intensive enough that they can justify it being the only skill in the pack separate from horse-related skills. (Which, for the record, I don't really count because that's the whole selling point of the pack. Anything horse related should be a given).
I'm not trying to diminish the amount of work it took to animate and implement horses - I haven't experienced many bugs personally, and I know adding an entirely new living creature with customization and personalization is tedious. Even so, I still don't think the full price is justified. Comparing it to Cats and Dogs, I think this EP missed a lot of good opportunities to implement a new career, skills, and gameplay. I even feel like we could have gotten some new dialogue interactions, or even a spiritual/cultural trait related to Native American ideologies or customs (kind of like the child of the island/child of the ocean traits we got with Island Living) but I've yet to see many notable additions in that regard. If this pack was a $20 game pack I think I would feel totally different. I'm having fun, but I would never be able to justify spending $40.
SO... would I recommend it? Honestly... so far, yeah. I would just snag it when it goes on sale for $20 (or through other means. You do you). $20 is the price it should have been in the first place. But I am shocked at how much fun I've been having. The CAS and Build/Buy is really good, maybe my favorite in a while (but I'm into the rugged, dirty, western style quite a bit... if that's not your thing, this pack won't do anything for you). The horses are cool and in my experience after playing it for a few days, they're animated really well (surprisingly... I thought this pack would be 'My Wedding Stories' all over again). I also love this world. It's right up there with San Myshuno, Brindleton Bay, and Windenburg for me.
Coming up: I'll be taking Lea into town- she's a loner, but it's time to force her out of her comfort zone so she can make some friends. (Plus, I really want to see the new dance floor animation haha.)
Like always, if you read all that, I have big big love for you. I leave you with a little kith upon your head (or a respective big thumbs up if physical affection is not your jam).

gonna make my "heres how halcandran/descendant of the ancients magolor can still win" infodump
SO i kind of hate that bit of dialogue from extra mode. it is bad. i am somewhat biased but still.
i think it really flattens magolors character into "lying liar who lies" instead of "lying liar who comes from a mysterious planet that we get to see a peek at, who is something of a representation of the deeper lore there". i think having him just be super interested in ancient stuff is kind of weird considering. like ppl say hes a weeb and yknow thats usually uh Bad. i know im kind of doing a "i can excuse attempted world domination but i draw the line at cultural appropriation" but like it feels different. also i just think it was kind of bad to have fans building up hcs and lore for over a decade then be like Hey. That Was Fake. overall think it was a bad decision. if this was the plan all along it shouldve been in the original game. if it was just added bc it was supposed to be assumed all along There Should Have Been Clues Other Than The Fact Magolor Is A Liar
plus even if he slipped up with the "easy targets" line i dont know if he'd like, let up on the ruse and admit to lying about something prior to the Big Reveal. he did have a carefully crafted persona, methinks. especially if it fooled even dedede and meta knight. but it feels like a purely shock value line. bad. a little funny but it remains bad.
anyways. ways to cope work with what we have canonically and still have that be intact:
-he lied about lying because hes a lying liar who lies
-he lied about lying because halcandra is, in his words, a dusty mess, and he was suddenly a bit ashamed of it and didnt want to actually claim it as his home
-he was telling the truth that hes not from halcandra, but he's still descended from halcandran ancients that travelled elsewhere in the galaxy, whether fleeing halcandra due to the Dusty-Mess-ification or just because they were able to. cant imagine a society with space travel and that much influence on the future of the universe wouldn't end up having cultural influences elsewhere
-he was telling the truth that hes not from halcandra TO HIS KNOWLEDGE he just either was moved away from halcandra when he was very young or for some other reason has forgotten

All caught up! Chapter 29 was quite the reaction rollercoaster!
Very interesting to find a princess kidnapped by a demon. I wonder how many we will see! Also, was she given a name that ends with "shame" at birth/100 days/1 year? How sad for a child!
I like the passport stamping scene, and how Tripitaka uses his courtly manners to impress everyone. I think it's the first scene of Red Cliff, where Cao Cao tricks the Han emperor into ceding power to him, where all the officials are kneeling and shouting "lord!" and crawling around. That's always what I picture with scenes like this. Plus, Zhang Fengyi's voice and delivery as Cao Cao is instantly iconic, so I can't put it out of my mind.
I really liked the scene where the king goes from saying "psh, how ugly can they be? You rude monk!" to practically pooping his pants when Wuneng and Wujing show up. Those two really felt like shitty teens here, which I quite enjoyed.
The fight at the end of the chapter, however... Did Bajie really have to go poop? In the middle of a fight? That's new.
Lots to think about, like "when is Wukong coming back" and "will Guanyin make Wukong go back?"
You can say that the princess was fated from birth, that's why naming your baby is so important in Chinese culture. So I wonder why that name...
I was actually a bit shocked that after describing his disciples, the king and the court acted like that . If Tripitaka said they are so ugly that they can't enter the court, it doesn't mean normal ugly, duh.
Are we surprised about anything Bajie does? He just listens to his stomach and his [redacted]. It was funny but poor Wujing :(

✨ Oh that is a good point! They must feel so familiar but then in person you realise they are in fact strangers - that must feel quite jarring. Papa Chessum seems adorable! As do all the families tbh? I think they've been so involved in their sons careers that meeting so many people along the way & revelling in the whole experience must just be so exciting - whereas the partners of the players haven't been around for all that so probably feel more uncomfortable with it...
I always remember Chloe Madeley (James Haskell's wife) saying on his podcast that the wive's and gf's always felt so much pressure to dress up for games & to look a certain way as people would constantly look them up and down & judge them ☹️ She also said they would be always freezing at six nations games because of their 'dress to impress' outfits and that Eddie Jones understood and was incredibly sweet by getting them heated blankets to keep them warm 😭💕
Omg you climbed over Bevan?? 😂😆 [I would stay well clear of that boy after watching that calorie vid of his - jesussss 😂👀]
Guarantee the ones who looked older had faces full of filler...? 😞
Also culture shock is such a real thing omg, one of my siblings has a foreign partner and as lovely as they are, we have just never gelled? Not through lack of trying of course but yeh...culture is so interesting no?
Seen a super cool documentary about fillers it really stopped my ideas to get some ever ! Also everyone is starting to look the same just see the hairstyles as well... It is getting scary. I think it is too much efforts for something that will fade away plus when you stop cultivating what is inside yourself it is when it gets bad... I mean I may not be the prettiest but I do know for sure I can be captivating.
Papa chess always call everyone buddy or mate or something along those lines to men and women it is funny. Families are all very closed, the vP are more discreet than the stews... You can be fooled by Jeff in a crowd and not recognize him but not Sarah , he is her carbon copy it is insane and she is so pretty????? He was alone anyways. He was not seated with anyone family and wasn't Seated with freddy's friends he came with he was on his own in a seat near staircases so he could moove easily with his boot.
Completely amazed each time I see them in 3D I am never completely used to it.
Also used to be over the moon and find that he was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in 29 years of life and believedme I have seen a lot of museums. Lies Lies Lies... You know when you see in a glimpse someone true self without any barriers, his personality but it is rotten inside that it turns the person uggly instantly ?? This happened. Like a repulsive instinctive movement of being take aback.
So different than watching the Tv. I have seen tons and tons of images of Jack over the year that I can do galaxy maps out of his moles and yet... He looked smaller sweaty and vain that day. He was just a boy. Some boy. But a boy. It vacillated in front of me in a fraction of a second my brain didn't compute and was there like why am I inflicting this situation to myself. It hurts. Go.
I recall his clumsy movements, the cotton of his t-shirt , the heavy bracelet of his watch , his eyes being glazed and very wide, and his hair going greasy on his forehead, for a reason he is always warm his body always radiates like a heater. I could write chapters just to describe him.
So you have at least the end of the story and I get a closure perhaps.
____________
I thought he would care but maybe someone still does.
♪ I got everything I wanted
Not what you'd think
And if I'm bein' honest
It might've been a nightmare ♫
__
As soon as the second half started I ran out in the stairs and even took the wrong way before noticing, I was shaking like a leaf my ancestors must have felt it.
Like I said I asked Max Malins where Jack was by showing him my drawing to him, his girlfriend, and Josie, Ben Earl's girlfriend who was very sweet was complimenting it so I was slightly reinforced I wasn't totally off in my intentions.
I tried again to run through the stairs and one of the stewards noticed me this time. Asking me a bit with disdain if I had finally found him, she said she would ask another steward close to the staff if he was there. The other one came and didn't recognize him from the drawing, I gave him his name and he told me he wasn't playing (no kidding sir... I know that) . I told them both that the players and families assured me he was there, I knew I did not have a lot of time before they would ask me to go back ASAP to my seat so I scanned for one last time the crowd and there he was. In a *SNAP* I just saw him and didn't let them finish telling me anything I just said mostly for me: THERE, SEE HE IS THERE!! TOLD YOU!! and instantly, instinctively moved forward.
To reach him I had to do some acrobatics and climb rows of seats I asked nicely to pass to someone who indeed was Bevan Rodd but I couldn't care less I had the aim to reach Jack before he could go away so I had to pass between Bevan and his family to land on the hole to hope seeing Jack, doing so I hit hard my knee to the forward row of seats.
A few steps with a muted pain in my right knee is what was separating me from my encounter with the backside of Jack in his black t-shirt finishing to discuss with people around. Lewis Ludlam was on his phone occupied on the next row to my right. I took my chances and it was after a light tap on his back that I was finally facing Jack.
He seemed surprised , glazed eyes who seemed twitching : oh it's you ! You found me !
He said : heeeyy ! I just had the drawing in front of me he laughed and he said You alright? and engulfing me in a hug, I whispered in his ear that it had been difficult to find him. I asked him if he would be ok just to take a selfie . A selfie ! Right! no problem, he was letting me to open my phone ready to take one but then Lewis said to me if you want I can take the pictures for me so I gave him my phone and Jack was abandoning me already talking to someone else. I said to Lewis I was running the fanpage of Jack a bit excusing myself for intruding and explaining why I was exactly there. He absolutely didn't cared a flying fuck but said oh alright. Jack... The selfie.. Jack ? JACK ! JVP !!!
He was so embarrassed for me that JvP was totally elsewhere.
oh yes yes ! He grabbed me close and while Lewis was taking the pictures I was asking Jack if we could have one less formal more "quirky" and he didn't understand and kept on repeating what ? uuhmWhat? laughing. and I said in my balbuting English you know doing faces pull the tongue. Quirky.! He seemed horrified and moved away so I asked him right after that why he was not following the fanpage and he started to be vague and telling me that he would never follow it and started an embarrassed because... and I asked him if it was because of the club he said no but that he wanted to keep a low profile. The amount of profiles he follows doesn't really sound low profile to me but I will not start to argue.
I think he saw my look because he instantly defended himself with reinforcement of gestures with his hands: but I go watch it tho you know!!!! And he promised he would continue to do so. He then proceeded to tell me he had to go because the match would be back on soon and it was when I tried to let him pass that my hand landed on his abs because he literally escaped, exchanged an intended look with Bevan and I followed him to his seat because I still had his drawing in hand and it couldn't end like this, it was the worst interaction we ever had.
I called him back and gave him the drawing and he said: no.
no , no-no
I said why ??? I was completely shocked to be entirely honest. Because he could have trashed it right after it I wouldn't have cared but for me, to refuse that simple piece of paper it was like crucifying me, crushing my efforts, with his simple no that he repeated in loop after, I pictured instantly all the previous giftbags I gave him in the bin. Don't you like it ? It's badly drawn? ♫*bad blood by Taylor Swift in my head*♫
No no it's not that you are talented it's really well done, you should keep it. He was a bit showing himself not having a bag and his empty pocket and then.
So disappointed, I had my ego replying to him instantly: sign it then at least!
He said ok , I asked him if he would be in Leicester on the 3rd of December because I had more pleasant gifts than a drawing to give him and he smiled nodding. While signing my drawing one woman went in the way while regaining her seat, and proceeded to completely empty on the floor the full beer cup he had left next to his seat to be empty-handed. She recognized him and was super flustered while he was SO PISSED OFF. He was giving me back the pen and drawing completely distraught and afflicted. He had enough.
I just thanked him again for the video before leaving and he said he was again very sorry that it had taken so long for him to reply ...
I remember I remember, his eyes flickering a silent but kind: I know who you are I haven't forgotten you now go you can go
I left.
I wished to cry but couldn't, like I couldn't explain to my father the bruise forming on my knee huge as a potato, or the bruise even bigger to my ego. I cried a lot after that. He kept his promises and came back on his own a lot of times on the page just the day after like an excuse but it's me seeing things. It was too late anyway.
I left my childhood and illusions in that stadium.
Life went on.
It doesn't seem like a lot because after all he didn't owe me anything but it hit hard, usually my job = me, so knowing I was doing the page in vain and that he absolutely doesn't care about anything was a huge blow. I felt like I was embarrassing him, felt embarrassed by the whole situation and talking about cultural differences: I think I may just be a lot, he is cuddly and tactile but it's not the same as being warm and close. Obviously, it's normal to put distances but then don't grab me, the ambivalence was part of the problem and it always was from day one. He should have put distances from day one and not broken them from himself by DM me , it is how it started and then he just kept on giving on and on. His family and friends following... all the hugs and then some likes , the views, I can count all
I have received and that I have entertained as well and that we in a way both entertained as he could have stopped coming he could have deleted the page ....So yeah thing is it was weird and not satisfying interaction, I felt it like a broken heart and collected the pieces of it back home. I think it wasn't the right time for sure and I should have known but it was so unexpected for him to show up and I had bought those RWC tickets to see him... I don't know maybe
it was all a fever dream as I was alone to experience it when usually someone is there with me to relate the same story with a different point of view...
That was the story of the downfall of my love for Jack.
Cute point it is how close I was to second babey
