Baby Smell
Tags : SFW, Fluff
Synopsis : Fyodor is fascinated by the smell his baby, he can't take his eyes off his baby and you.
Art by me, repost only with credit!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I never had any ideas if baby smell would be so fine. Like, they can make people around them calm." As he said that and slowly caressing his baby with his finger. Fyodor was amazed by the miracle before his eyes, he was even a little doubtful that caressing with his finger would be safe.
A small miracle that arrived in both of your lives, an holy angel without even a speck of blemish. It was something that he wasn't see often, considering how his life was going, only full of revenge, violence, and even the loss of many lives. But this time, he seems helpless in front of a little life that depends on him and you. Thanks for you to protecting this little angel for 9 months also for fighting for the delivery process.
It's been a week since you came home, Fyodor always ready to helping for you and your baby's needs.
"Look, she held my finger. With this tiny palm, blushes in red. So fragile, but her grip really tight." He chuckled.
"Papa here, you'll be fine." he said again, while rubbing the tip of his nose against the tiny hand.
You are still in bedrest, even occasionally your husband will help you to move. Like taking a small walk and sunbathing together with the baby. For your health after giving birth.
Once a time the baby start taste her tongue, looking for something she should consume. But when she didn't find what she was looking for, she took a deep breath and started whining.
"Uh-oh.. someone is about starving again." Fyodor was a little worried when the little baby started whining, then start to cry loudly. You just chuckled.
"Come here." You offered to hold her, holding her gently. Hearing the sound of your heart and your unique scent made her crying slowly subside.
"I only confused right now, between I want to be like you or like our baby." Fyodor chuckled. He cant stand seeing his wife and his baby, he always want to around them.
"Hugging by you is always calming, right? Can I have that too? Should I be crying and then getting hug by you?" Fyodor asked teasingly.
You only hissing to him then started to give the baby your breast milk. She slowly consume it and started to be more calmed. Fyodor only let out a sigh seeing you two. A few moments later, he spoke again. His tone was more serious this time.
"Thank you, milaya. Without you, maybe I wouldn't be able to feel very peaceful in this life."
You smiled and look at him. Then patted his head and start to caressing it slowly.
"So, May I be next after our baby is finished and full?" He still teasing you.

okay i didn't wanna make this post but it's been a couple days and the video is still up
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this person on tiktok has reposted this comic of mine, without credit and without asking, not that that would even matter cause i don't allow reposts at all, and ive left a comment and a message but nothing has been done yet, here's a link to the video
as of now the video has 19k views which is insane to me
Tumblr media
they've also admitted to taking these photos from another tiktok, that again, was done without permission
time and time again, this is exactly fucking why i don't allow reposts, even if it's done with permission and with credit someone else can take it from you and might just not give a shit
im posting this to my account on multiple platforms in case they'll see it but since they literally took it from another tiktok i doubt they follow me
but if you see this, or you're another person who has reposted any of my art, please delete it, thank you

So I just saw the post you reblogged about A.I on Tumblr and I'm not sure what to think. I want to get back into post my Inuyasha art but now I'm worried about this whole ordeal. On the one hand I don't want to give up making and sharing my art w/ others (esp. Since I haven't in a while), but now I'm scared about it being stolen and other artists I love giving up posting. This whole debate with A.I has me so confused and scared and I really don't know whats going on. I'm also curious about what you will do if this deal goes through. Do you plan on using Glaze or something similar?
Tumblr media
Come sit with me, anon cause to be frank, I'm trying to take that particular post with a grain of salt. I hope it's wrong, because it wasn't long ago we were hit with "oh my god tumblr is closing where is everyone going" and we're still here. But I won't lie, it pisses me off greatly that it's even a possibility.
I completely understand, and I say - go ahead and post it. Don't give up on art because a bunch of fuck bois with no talent in their short hairs decide that generative technology is the way to go. I honestly hope that it crashes and burns in the next couple years, if not sooner. It had potential before fat old men in suits decided that they had to have more money than they know what to do with. I'm not quitting, because it's my income. It's my joy. I am also fueled by spite, because if I wasn't I wouldn't be here right now.
Art getting stolen is always going to be a thing to worry about, even before AI unfortunately. People will repost without credit and still take credit when that post gets more traction. Create a watermark and be a menace to the reposters, I say. There's Glaze, like you mentioned, and Nightshade. I've heard you have to do them in that order for it to be effective.
You can also search haveIbeentrained.com to see if your work has been picked up and request for it to be pulled from the databases. I've found three more of mine this evening. One was one of my mother's paintings.
I've already erased 15 years of work off the internet when I deleted my deviantart gallery at the end of 2022. Some of that work is so old it was never shared anywhere else. I may not even have that work anymore. If the deal were to go through, I'm not deleting my blog. It's been active since 2012; there's no way I could go through and find every art post and delete it to repost glazed/nightshade versions. It won't affect the reblogs. I haven't personally tried Glazing anything yet because I'm not sure if it'd even be effective with my style, but it's something to try when time allows.
I'm gonna say it again - don't give up on your art. Whether you're doing it as a career (I dare someone say art is a sidehustle, this is not MLM and I am not some 2-bit influencer) or because it is something you just enjoy doing for the hell of it, you should continue. I've seen people give up entirely on art in the last year, and it makes me mad. If art is something you want to do, you shouldn't let anyone make you feel like you can't.
And if you need someone to rally behind you and cheer you on, you've got me in your corner 💕 Hell, feel free to tag me in some of your art, if you'd like!

Reposting artwork/Don't do it!
Tumblr media
So I don't like having to be the one to give my talks here, but sometimes I think people tend to forget in this world we live in that when an artist makes fan works in any form whether it be fan art, fanfic, etc. we put it out there in the world to share with other fans who love what we love. We want to share what we created with others because we're proud of the time we put into the project, of the detail and the inspiration we have on something within the project itself so when an artist/writer/etc finally gets to the point where they are ready to share the work they'll post it on their blog, site, etc to share with others because we want you to see it, to notice it and like it, to reblog it to share with your followers and hope that maybe they like it enough to do the same. What we don't want is someone seeing our work and then saving it to repost it on their own page so that they can pass it off as their own project and get all the love that we were looking for sent their direction. Time and time again I've seen less known artists create something wonderful that a bigger blog will snatch up and post and in the repost it gets a lot of love and attention where the artist who created it never gets to see any of that love, nor do they get any of the credit for their work because someone else is taking the credit even if they aren't outright claiming the work as their own by refusing to credit the artist for their efforts. This bothers me when I see it happening. A LOT!
I understand that everyone wants attention and people want their posts to be noticed. I get that and sometimes someone is new to a platform and doesn't understand the proper etiquette for sharing someone else's work. Honest mistakes are made and I can accept that too, but when someone goes out of their way to post someone else's work without giving proper credit (even after the artist and other people have told them who the artist is) that's outright stealing. If you're going to post someone else's artwork at least be kind enough to credit them as the artist or share the link to the original work. We get that you like something and appreciate it, but show that appreciation by letting others know that we designed this piece that they love. It's only fair and something that should go without saying. It's the way to keep fandom alive and keep these wonderful artists designing works and putting out more content to enjoy. When others steal or take away from the artist's efforts there are less things to enjoy and eventually the artist stops posting for others to see.
I've always felt this way on the matter, but recently I had one of my fan arts taken in such a matter. I, always wanting to give someone the benefit of the doubt, reached out to this person who reposted my art, dm'd them in private so not to embarrass them if they didn't understand why reposting without credit wasn't a good thing and said while I would prefer a reblog of my original work that I did, if they chose to keep their repost up all I asked was credit for being the artist. I'd sent them a dm and relayed all these things to them in a polite and what I felt was a generous fashion after my friends had already responded to their post about it being my artwork. A few hours later they ignored my dm and called my friends out saying they were 'liars' and a few other things because the reposter found the art on 'google images' searching a show that the art itself wasn't a part of. I did the same search and found nothing in an effort to give them another benefit of the doubt, yet they ignored that I was the artist on the piece, refused to accept it was someone's fan work and blatantly ignored my attempt to reach out to them. I responded to their repost again trying to be polite and they once again ignored my request to credit me. As I searched through their page I discovered that taking others art and not crediting them is only the beginning as they are also taking fan art and editing it to fit characters they like in photoshop and then passing the art off as their own creations. They seem to be quite content to take other people's work and alter it to appear that they are creating these pieces which they aren't, which is wrong on so many levels.
That being said i don't like to call people out, but the poster garoniousxmen has made no attempts to try to right the situation after well over 24 hours of being told by multiple people the art they posted was mine and based on their stealing other artwork and altering it to fit their fandom needs it appears that they are quite content to keep stealing from other fan artists. I do understand that everyone wants attention and to be noticed, but this is not the way. I went above and beyond to be reasonable with them, but they see no interest in doing what's right so for anyone who is posting fan art especially in the X-Men or comic fandom beware because this poster is notorious for not only reposting fan works but altering them to fit their favorite characters and passing it off as their own, which is a shame.
I realize that this is a long post, but I hope people take the time to consider what situations like this do to fandom and will at least take the time to reblog something from a fan artist or like it without reposting without their permission and if by some chance you still wish to repost, please just credit the person. It's best to ask them if you can, but if you don't ask for permission still give them the proper credit for what they did. The piece this person reposted and pretended wasn't mine is something I worked on for quite a few hours in Illustrator as it was my own drawing/digital art and while I'm glad they appreciated the art, this is not the way to show it. Not by a longshot.
Please be kind and reblog, credit artists because it is something that makes our fandoms even better when we show love the right ways.

Pull the trigger (SFW/hitman!Gojo x mafia!leader!fem!reader)
Tumblr media
Author's note: I've been working on this story for weeks lol I really enjoyed writing it, reader is completely different this time. She's cold and ruthless but don't worry, they get their happy end (kinda lol)
And also I did a collab with my lovely friend @randompurr again. Please give her some love, she did an amazing job <3 
DO NOT copy or repost her art without giving credit! Comments and likes are much appreciated.
And thank you to my lovely @ladycheesington for proofreading <3
Warnings: MNDI/ 18+ ONLY!/ injuries, blood, violence, torture. Mention of guns and illegal business. It's a mafia AU after all Wordcount: 5.1K
“Such a shame to kill someone so beautiful.” he thought and for a brief second he hesitated. For the first time in his life Satoru was unable to pull the trigger. In a blink of an eye you were out of his sight. His pupils grew wide and his breath became uneven, because he knew he fucked up. 
“Shit.” he clenched his jaw as he was still staring through the lens of his high tech weapon at the spot you stood just a second ago. 
***
A big yawn and an even bigger stretch helped you get out of the bed in the morning. You knew it was going to be a busy day. Some business meetings then a party where your business partner invited you. So actually it was a must. 
It’s been a few years now that you had to get in charge as the head of the family. Your father passed away and his last wish was you to protect the empire at all costs. He raised you well, if raising a girl as a ruthless yakuza could mean “well”. Skilled, smart, sneaky were just bits of your personality. 
Did you want this role? Sure. Would you have any other choice if you thought otherwise? Of course not.  
For some reason old memories rushed your mind while you were getting ready in the bathroom. Taking a hot shower, standing under the water was supposed to make you feel relaxed. But instead you frowned as an unwanted scene from your past flashed in front of your eyes. 
“Do it! And prove your worth!” you heard your father’s harsh voice. 
“I don’t want to…” you argued with shaky hands. 
“Do you think I wanted it when I was at your age? No! Did my father care about my feelings? Also no! Because our feelings don’t matter. The only thing we need to focus on is to keep the business together, protect the empire at all costs. Never forget that! And now pull the fucking trigger.” he shouted. 
You closed your eyes and obeyed. It was the first time you killed someone. With time it became easier but you were unable to forget the first one. You were only a child for fuck’s sake. 
Your turquoise silk robe hung on the hook and waited for you to put it on after you dried yourself with a huge fluffy towel. As you stared in the mirror you noticed how tired your eyes looked. Circles and massive bags showed you would have needed some more rest or some less stressful life in general. But there was nothing that makeup couldn’t hide. Getting ready was one of your favorite parts of the day. 
Business meetings meant casual makeup and conservative hairstyles. Messing with your bun you chose some gem covered hair pins to fix it. Your typical velvet lipstick finished the look before you walked to your wardrobe to choose an outfit. An outfit that showed you were a powerful and dangerous business woman. 
A black long sleeved turtle neck blouse with also black tight pants were the best choice. You spiced the outfit with heels, a long snow white coat and a pair of leather gloves. A slight smirk appeared on your face as you took a quick glance in the mirror before you left the room. 
Yuuta was ready to escort you as always when you headed to a meeting. During the years you implemented some changes in the family, you rewrote some old rules and replaced them with new ones. One of them was to change the ranking process. Before, members under the age of 30 couldn’t guard the boss. Your father believed young people weren’t able to handle certain situations. Yuuta on the other hand proved his worth more than once, plus you trusted him. So he was the perfect choice. He appreciated your faith in him and did his best to protect you no matter what. Even if the boy was in his twenties he was already a skilled fighter, great in martial arts and even better with his katana. 
You loved the terrified look on people’s faces when they noticed your guard with a huge sword on his back. Of course he was armed with guns as well but no one needed to know about that. 
“Good morning, boss.” he greeted you with a slight bow. “The car is ready and waiting for you.”
You nodded and a tiny smile showed him you were satisfied. Yuuta weren’t only your guard but your personal chauffeur as well. 
On the way to the meeting you felt like someone was watching you. 
“Are you okay?” Yuuta looked into your eyes through the rearview mirror.
“I can’t explain it.” you cleared your throat. “I have a bad feeling about today, so please pay attention. This family is nasty as fuck.”
“You have my word, I will protect you.” he frowned as he focused on the road again. “And if they try anything I will kill them all.”
***
“Why do you want me to kill her?” Gojo grabbed the folder from the table. His client stood in front of him in his office. The man looked determined, hatred flashed in his eyes. 
“I need that family to be wiped out as soon as possible. Starting with the useless boss is the best.” he snorted. 
“Hmm…” Satoru laid back in his chair, chewing on his inner cheek, seemingly hesitating. He was staring at your picture that was attached to the folder. Your beautiful face, mesmerizing eyes, oh and your silky looking hair distracted him for a second. 
“So? What do you say?” The man was getting more and more impatient. “I pay as much as you want. Money doesn’t matter.”
Gojo clicked his tongue as he stood up and threw the folder on his desk.
“Deal!” he slammed his palm into his client’s, shaking hands to make it official. 
Even if he accepted the request he had a weird feeling about it. Something bugged him but he had no idea what or why. 
The next few weeks he spent examining your life. He tried his best to get every useful information about you, about your daily routine and about your family. Once he realized how loyal and faithful your men were, he knew it wasn’t going to be a piece of cake to eliminate you. 
“Okkotsu Yuuta.” he hummed as he made some notes. “This fucker will cause me big trouble, if I’m not careful enough. That katana looks worrying. And on top of that he’s like a lap dog, he’s always around her. So pitiful.” he rolled his eyes. “Who’s next?” he frowned. “Nanami Kento. The consigliere of the family. He seems smooth but he’s a freaking butcher when it’s needed. I definitely have to pay attention to him, otherwise he will cut me into pieces. I know how far he’s willing to go…” he clicked his tongue. 
Satoru kept going on and on with his notes and list about you and the family. He was the best hitman in the area if not in the whole country. His hitting rate was 100% successful, no mistakes, no missed chances. When he accepted a job he was determined to get it done. This was one of the reasons that made him the best. 
But the second he laid his eyes on you he knew he needed to be careful. Not because he wasn’t good enough to kill you, no. But because you seemed that kind of woman who looked sweet and beautiful on the outside and probably was a dangerous, cruel mistress on the inside. 
***
Yuuta opened the car door for you as he pulled off in front of the building. In front of the 65 floor high skyscraper in the heart of downtown, which wore the name of the owner right above the entrance. Enormous letters signaled the importance of the word Zen’in.  
You were wary of the family. Bunch of fuckers as you mentioned them, whenever a conversation involved these people. The way they treated some of their members made you feel sick. For you family was the most important thing. Something that needed to be protected and saved above everything else. For the Zen’ins money and power came first. 
As you stepped out of the car you kept fighting the weird feeling. The feeling that you were watched. For a brief second you turned around and looked at the top of the building on the other side of the road. Nothing. You saw nothing. Maybe a tiny little reflection but it was so meaningless that you didn’t care at all. 
“Boss?” Yuuta’s husky voice snapped you back to reality. “You okay? We should head inside.” The boy stood next to the car, frowning. He was always so ready to step in, to get into action. His senses were always aware of everything. And no one could blame him for not seeing a skilled hitman hiding at the top of a building as high as the sky. 
“Yeah, sure.” you cleared your throat and turned to the entrance. 
The inside of the building looked stunning, rich, luxurious. It represented everything the Zen’ins wanted to show to the world. They wanted people to see them as a higher form of living. As they would be worth more than the average. Obviously it was bullshit and all this circus made you laugh and gag at the same time. 
“Oh, stop this Naoya.” you rolled your eyes. “I thought we were here for serious business but all I hear is “but” and “if”. I don’t have time for this.”
You felt as if he tried to buy some time and actually you were right. The current head of the Zen’in clan tried his best to keep you in the office. He was terrified because you shouldn’t have arrived at all. If everything went according to the plan you would have laid on the ground in front of the building with a bullet in your pretty head. Instead you were pulling faces, rolling your eyes and calling this whole meeting useless. 
After you left the building Naoya became furious. “What the fuck happened?” he yelled through the phone right into Gojo’s ear.
“Stop yelling.” his cold voice sent shivers through his client's body.
“Answer my fucking question! I thought you were the best.” he hummed.
“The job will be done. Stop bothering me unless you want me to change my target.” he clicked his tongue as he ended the call. 
***
“I don’t know, Yuuta.” you frowned. “Am I paranoid or was this meeting off? I mean, I know he is a fucking jerk but…” 
“Something was definitely off.” he nodded slightly as he opened the car door for you. “Maybe you should cancel the party tonight.”
“I can’t.” you sighed frustrated. “I have unfinished business with Kashimo Hajime. I owe that bastard a dance.” 
“Boss…” Yuuta rolled his eyes. 
“What?” you acted innocent. “We made a bet and he won. You do know how important it is to stay true to your word, right? I can’t let rumors spread that I’m a liar.”
“I know, I know.” he waved. “I’ll be aware of every source of danger, just please don’t make it harder than it should be.”
“Seriously?” you hummed a laugh, while you raised one of your eyebrows. “Let’s head to the hair salon, please.”
You spent the day enjoying the luxurious pleasures that rich business women could afford. After the hair salon you stopped to get your nails done. A little bit of shopping and having lunch with Yuuta in a fancy restaurant were the most enjoyable part of the day. You loved spending time with him since he never complained. Okay, it was part of his job but somehow it seemed he enjoyed your presence just as much. He wasn’t only your first Lieutenant, he was your friend. 
In the late evening you stepped out from your room in all your glory. You wanted a dress that showed enough but still stayed elegant. A classic black dress you chose with long sleeves and deep cleavage. A thin silver belt hugged your waist. The bottom of the long dress just brushed the floor, while your right thigh was shown through the slit on the side.  
Besides the dress you wanted your hair to look perfect as well. So you made a messy but lovely looking low bun and spiced your outfit with a pair of tiny diamond earrings. The velvet lipstick was a must. 
When it was about a party or a public appearance in general four or five of your men escorted you. Just in case. Yuuta and Nanami were waiting for you in the hall. The way Yuuta’s eyes widened the second he noticed you walking down the stairs made you smile. 
Kento cleared his throat that snapped him back to reality. “Be professional.” Nanami whispered to the young boy. “And know your place. She is the boss!” 
***
The parking lot was way too crowded in front of the breathtakingly beautiful building. Long stairs guided the guests up to the entrance. As you took a few steps forward someone bumped into you. A young girl with dark green hair and a pair of very fashionable glasses grabbed both of your shoulders. She leaned in quickly and whispered. “Be cautious! Gojo Satoru wants to kill you.” And with that she was already gone. 
Yuuta appeared next to you in a heartbeat, he was furious about being too late to prevent the incident.
“Boss!” he placed his hand on your forearm. “Are you okay? Are you hurt? What did she want?”
“She said…” you stared into the nothingness, still in shock.
“What?” he frowned. “What did she say?”
“She said Gojo Satoru wants to kill me.”
“What the fuck? Okay, get in the car. Right now! We need to take you to the safe house and…”
“No!” you raised your hand which made Yuuta quiet immediately. “Kento, please come here.” you turned to your consigliere.
“Yes, boss.” he stepped next to you in an instant.
“Do you know the name Gojo Satoru?” you looked him in the eyes. 
“He is one of the most successful hitmen, boss. If he is after you, we should take this seriously. That man never misses his target.” 
“I’m not gonna let that bastard ruin my night. So it will be your job to be ready to act, understood? I have a plan. Because I’m sure he will try to approach me. You wait for my sign and we’ll capture him. I need to know who hired him.”
“Boss, with all due respect…” Yuuta gulped hard.
“No!” you shot a deadly stare at him. “Do as I say and know your place!” you took a deep, irritated breath before you turned around and headed to the stairs.
***
The inside of the building looked even more mesmerizing. Huge crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling, marble floor sparkled under your feet. Everything seemed fancy and expensive, extremely expensive. You hated these kinds of parties from the bottom of your heart. Even if you were loaded you never liked bragging about it. And yet this party was all about it. Every guest, every person in this room was disgustingly rich. 
A few steps you took and eyed the place to find some familiar faces. A friendly voice called you from behind that made you smile. 
“Kashimo, are you already here?” you turned around to greet him.
“Darling.” he smirked and hugged you immediately. “I was afraid you wouldn’t show up. You know…” he blinked “Because of our little bet.”
“Oh, c’mon…” you laughed out loud. “This time you won and I’m true to my words no matter what.”
The night started to get heated, more and more crowded. You had a nice dinner and kept enjoying Kashimo’s presence. Cocktails after cocktails disappeared down your throats but you were aware of the danger.
“So…” Kashimo stood up from the table and reached out his hand for you to take “Can I have this dance, milady?” he kissed the back of your hand as you accepted his offer. 
“With pleasure.” you nodded slightly. 
Kashimo Hajime was an attractive bastard, there was no need to deny this fact. His tall figure, toned body and handsome face stole the hearts of the women across the country. Tonight he wore his semi long, bluish white hair down with a messy bun. The suit he chose followed his body perfectly. His dark blue button up shirt showed all his muscles, if you checked him well enough you could spot his abs, too. The black pants fitted his figure and followed his round bum. All in all he looked hot as hell. But you would have never admitted that. There was no way on Earth for you to boost his ego even more. 
The slow song echoed through the marble room and lured several couples to the dance floor. He softly took your hands and guided them around his neck, while his own hands found their way to your waist. 
“It’s nice, isn’t it?” he cooed.
“It’s been worse.” you teased.
It was just a game between you two. Teasing was your thing. Maybe you were attracted to him, maybe not. Maybe he was attracted to you, maybe not. But one thing was sure, you both loved this cat and mouse game way too much. 
As the dance went on you felt the same weird feeling as in the morning. The feeling of someone watching you. 
“What’s wrong?” Kashimo frowned “You don’t enjoy this nice dance with me?”
“I do.” you admitted without even realizing it “But I have a weird feeling. I think someone is watching me.”
“Oh, you mean the crystal white haired guy in the corner?” he smirked. “He hasn't taken his eyes off you since you walked in. I think he’s a fan of you, darling.”
You rolled your eyes and hugged him just a tiny bit tighter. 
“Be ready…” he whispered in your ear “He’s heading here.” Kashimo thought he did you a favor when he waved to the unknown man behind your back, inviting him closer. He had no idea the man was here to end your life. 
The second he stepped next to you, Kashimo released your waist. “I think you paid the price of losing our bet, darling.” he took a step back and winked at you, before disappearing in the crowd. 
“May I have this dance?” the tall man reached out his hand to you.
“Who am I about to share this dance with?” you looked skeptical.
“My name is Gojo Satoru.” he stepped a bit closer. You grabbed his hand and tried your best not to show any sign of nervousness. Playing it cool was your only goal. You had to get the name of his client no matter what. 
“What a lovely name.” you smiled softly as you placed one of your palms on his shoulder. Gojo was taller than Kashimo and in a wicked, twisted way he looked more attractive. The snow white hair, his handsome face and those undeniably beautiful blues made you weak. 
It seemed your hitman had taste in dressing up. The ebony suit with silver white button up shirt and matching tie made him look unbelievably eye-catching. But you were aware, you knew what he came here for and you weren’t about to give him what he wanted. 
The slow melody filled the dance floor and for a brief second you felt a spark. A spark between him and you. Satoru stared deep in your eyes and you saw…regret?! In that short second you played with the thought of what if you met in other circumstances. What if he wouldn’t be here to kill you, what if you could give yourself completely into this dance. It sounded so ridiculously insane that you almost chuckled, but you felt somehow safe in his embrace. 
The second Gojo pulled you into him and hugged you tight you let out a soft moan. It felt good, it felt nice, it felt natural. You threw your hands around his neck while you kept dancing. To the rhythm of the song your body moved in sync. You rested your head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat. 
“I wish this was real.” you whispered. But he heard you and pulled you back a bit just to look into your eyes. Even if he kept silent his eyes showed more than enough. 
“May I?” he leaned in, closer and closer, inch by inch. Did you want him to kiss you? Oh, yes! Did you let him do it? Well…
His lips were so close to yours that you felt his hot breath on your skin. In that exact moment you raised your hand behind his back and snapped your fingers twice. Yuuta, Nanami and the rest of your men appeared around you in a blink of an eye.
“Let’s not make a scene.” Yuuta growled as he pressed a gun against Gojo’s lower back in a way that no one even noticed. 
“Such a nice act it was, darling. I almost believed we had a moment.” he kept staring into your eyes. 
“Take him.” you sounded ice cold. 
Yuuta walked him out of the building and stopped next to their car.
“Put this on…” he threw a sack to Satoru.
“Is this really necessary?” he clicked his tongue. Yuuta didn’t answer him, stepped a bit closer and punched him in the gut as hard as he could. 
It surprised him, he didn’t think this young boy had the balls to actually hit him. 
On the way to the base millions of thoughts ran through Gojo’s head. He was mad at himself. “This woman…this woman made me vulnerable.” he clenched his jaw. Even if he knew it wasn’t professional, he couldn’t help his feelings. Now that he shared that dance with you, now that he felt your body close to his, now that he almost kissed you he knew what he had to do. “I’m gonna make her mine, no matter what.” he smirked under the cloth. 
But there was one thing he wasn’t aware of. You weren’t as easy to get as he believed. 
***
After your men escorted Gojo into The room Yuuta walked back to you into the living room.
“Boss…” he took a deep frustrated breath “Please let me handle this fucker. I will get the information you need, I swear.” hatred flashed in his eyes.
“Take Nanami with you.” you poked your inner cheek with your tongue. “But you cannot kill him, understood?” 
The boy’s eyes widened when he heard your order. Something was off and he felt it. Normally you were the first one who stepped into the room and beat the shit out of anyone who tried to harm you. Never before have you shown any kind of mercy. Every single time you were the one who pulled the trigger. But this time it seemed different. On your way back to the base you declared that you weren’t going to join them.
***
Nanami walked next to Yuuta but when they reached the door the boy stopped Kento.
“I will handle this on my own.” he said with a serious tone in his voice.
“Stop this bullshit, kid.” the tall blond rolled his eyes “No one needs you to be a hero. Especially not her.”
“Fuck you, Nanami.” Yuuta clenched his jaw “I’m going in alone and I will get from that piece of shit what she needs. But I don’t need you to be there and stop me…”
“She said we cannot kill him, remember?”
“Mistakes can happen.” he shrugged as he slowly opened the door and stepped in. 
Gojo was sitting on a chair in a completely empty room with his hands tied behind his back.  The second he heard the door moving he knew it was going to hurt. And he was right. 
Kento was waiting outside but he heard everything. Every punch, every hit, every hiss. He knew this hitman was a tough one but he also knew that Yuuta would go as far as possible to get the information for you. You were his world even if you didn’t see him like that. 
Tumblr media
“Talk, you filthy shit.” Yutta punched Gojo in the face for the umpteenth time.
“Sorry, boy.” Satoru smiled with blood covered teeth “I told you I won’t say anything to you. I’m only willing to talk to her.” 
“Bullshit.” he spat on the ground. 
“Hey!” Gojo yelled out of the blue “I know you hear me Nanami! Please tell her I’m going to tell everything but only to her. ”
Yuuta froze in his action. “How do you know him?”
“I’m sorry boy but it’s none of your business.” 
Kento clicked his tongue before he headed to get you. He wanted this to end. 
“Boss.” he stood in front of you “He is willing to tell everything but only to you. Maybe…”
“Fine.” you rolled your eyes and got up faster than you expected. You didn’t understand your reaction either. 
***
“She would never play your game.” Yuuta pulled an annoyed face. Gojo stayed silent and smirked, because he knew. At least he hoped you felt the same tension between you too. The door shot open and there you were, standing in front of him with the coldest look in your eyes.
“Boss…” Yuuta turned to face you. He saw as you raised your hand to hush him, so he bit back everything he wanted to tell you. 
“Leave us alone.” you kept staring at Satoru who looked way too beaten up. 
“But…” Yuuta tried his luck again.
“Enough!” you yelled and looked him in the eye. “Who do you think you are talking to? I said leave. Now!”
He realized what he did and felt really ashamed. Talking back to the boss was very disrespectful and unacceptable. He knew what his punishment was going to be and he couldn’t do anything but accept it. Deeply he bowed in front of you and walked out of the room. 
“You have 2 minutes to tell me what I want to know.” you said the second you heard the door closed behind you. “Otherwise I let Yuuta in and I won’t hold him back anymore. You know…he really wants to kill you.” you clicked your tongue. 
“I assume Nanami talked about me.” Gojo tried to sit straight even if he was in real pain. This boy beat him up pretty well. “And so you know I could have killed you if I really wanted to.”
“Oh, how generous.” you rolled your eyes. “Name…give me the name of the fucker who hired you.” your ice cold tone sent shivers down his body. He knew it was crazy but he found you way too attractive. The power, the raw cruelty in your eyes made him want you even more.
“Look, I'll tell you the name with one condition. We finish the dance which was interrupted so aggressively.” he tried to smile through his blood covered face.
“You think this is some kind of joke?” you got mad in an instant and stepped right in front of him. “One minute left.” you looked down on him.
Even if you were aware of a lot of things you missed the fact that Gojo was trying to free his tied hands behind his back. During your lovely chit chat he was able to get rid of the rope. As you looked down at him, he slowly looked up right into your eyes. He didn’t say anything but slowly stood up. The way he towered above you made your eyes widen for a second. You really didn’t expect him to break free. Several thoughts rushed through your mind and you realized you made a huge mistake. You let your emotions get in the way and you underestimated your enemy. 
You took a step back but he grabbed your waist gently. 
“Please.” he growled. “Just let me hold you for a second. I can’t explain it and it drives me crazy but look…” he pulled you close to him. “I could never hurt you. Never! ” 
Unbearable tension was throbbing in the air. For a brief second you eased your body and melted into his touch. Satoru felt the difference right away. 
“The Zen’ins” he whispered as he leaned in. “They wanted to get rid of you.” 
You bit your lower lip, you were hesitating. Did you want him to kiss you? Oh, yes. Did you understand why? Not at all. But did you let him…?
His pink lips got closer and closer to yours, just like back at the party. You felt his breath on your skin when suddenly his eyes widened and he froze in his action. The cold steel of the gun, pressed against his tummy, stopped him immediately. 
Tumblr media
(colored version is on Wattpad)
“Did you really think that I would let you kiss me?” you caressed his cheek and smiled softly. 
“I thought we had a moment.” he hummed a laugh. For the first time in his life he let his guard down and now he knew he was about to pay the price. 
“You know I have to do it…” you closed your eyes and pulled the trigger. 
Gojo collapsed on the ground and watched you walk out of the room. Barely heard some mumbling between you and someone else. Then everything was black. Pitch black.
“Get rid of him.” you turned to Yuuta “But make sure he stays alive. Understood?” 
The boy gulped hard and nodded obediently. 
***
6 months later:
There was a party where you were invited. A fancy, rich, luxurious party as always. That you hated oh so much. Shining in all glory, you looked more beautiful than ever. Killing time at the bar, while cocktails after cocktails slid down your throat, you heard a familiar voice.
“Looking beautiful tonight, darling.” Gojo sat down on a barstool next to you. 
“I’m glad you’re fine.” you hummed a laugh.
“Are you? Because it seemed you thought otherwise a few months ago.” he teased.
You kept silent, finishing another drink. 
“I was thinking…” Satoru sighed. He's never done anything like this before. 
“About what?”
“About working for you. If you’d accept me of course.” he smiled awkwardly and scratched the back of his neck.
“Hmm…” you pursed your lips. “You’re skilled, I know that. I think I could use those skills…”
“But?” he raised one of his eyebrows. “There’s always a ‘but’.”
“I’m gonna test your loyalty and your will to take orders.” 
“What if I fail?” he smirked.
“Well, then this time I won't miss your heart when I pull the trigger.” you winked.

⋆ ˚。⋆୨୧˚ "i'm so in love"
no use of pronouns | fluff | streamer!reader
reblogs and feedback are very appreciated &lt;3 || this was inspired by a zhongchi art by @/samijen. unfortunately, i had only seen this art reposted on tiktok and couldn't find the original one on twitter. idea credits go to @/samijen on twitter!
Tumblr media
“hey sweetie, here, i made you something to drink and got you a couple of snacks!”, your boyfriend’s voice startled you – he usually never came into your room whenever you were streaming and you were sure you had told him earlier that you were going online today. 
immediately, your chat blew up with comments about ‘who’s voice is that?’ – ‘what’s happening?’ as you looked up with widened eyes. “what kind of tea?”, you asked, taking your headphones off for a moment to be able to hear him more properly. 
“just some sweet mix. i saw it recently at the store and thought you’d like it!”, ajax explained with his usual, happy smile. you couldn’t help but smile as well at his sweet gesture, your cheeks were even heating up a little. 
“thank you!”, you grinned. 
“i’ll be heading out for a bit – i’ll be back soon! text me if you need something”, ajax announced, giving you a soft kiss on the forehead. 
“okay, stay safe”, you replied before you put on your headphones again and heard a little ping as someone donated a small amount of mora. 
“who was that???”, the robotic voice read out the message. 
“oh… that was my boyfriend, ajax”, you giggled. “he never really was interested in coming into one of my streams so i just never mentioned him. hmm… ‘he seems very sweet!’ oh, yes, he is and… oh, god, i can’t believe i’m actually saying this out loud on a stream but… i love him a lot. he makes me feel so good and comfortable, always makes sure i take care of myself and… i just don’t where i’d be without him right now.” 
“well, surely not streaming.” 
you gasped in shock, throwing the nearest object – after making sure it was soft enough not to actually hurt him – at your boyfriend who was still lurking at the door, watching you with a grin. “you goddamn idiot!”, you couldn’t help yourself but laugh, holding out your hand to signal him to greet your viewers properly this time.

My goodbye letter to tumblr
(Warning: I get very personal in this, please be careful when reading. there might be a few mistakes i made about stuff i said here)
Here's some context for what i'm saying here:
i joked about having sex with the corpse of a "proshipper" to piss off someone who had made art of orel murdering "proshippers" with a gun
i stole a "proshipper"'s nsfw fanfic and reposted it with a different ending
this vv
i would go on for paragraphs about the horrible stuff i've done in this fandom (some of which most people don't even know about), why i did it, why it's horrible and how sorry i am and how "I wOnT dO iT aGaIn I'lL bE a BeTtEr PeRsOn I dIdN't MeAn tO hUrT aNyOnE."
but honestly, everything that's out there is bad enough and talking in detail about everything i've done would be a waste of time that would never make me look any better (not that i care about that very much.) as much as i'm going to chew out themoralgoats later, they have a good reason to be disgusted at the squirrel stuff, and that is something i will give them credit for. some of the people in this fandom honestly don't deserve me. i've done some unspeakably horrible things that i don't know how i could even apologize for without fucking it up. ive tried to change, but it feels so much like it'll fail and i'll get worse no matter how hard i try. when i went to therapy, i was dumped from group therapy because "i hadn't made enough progress." when stuff like that happens honestly i don't know if i should trust any therapists when they could just abandon me when i'm not even finished. i can't promise i'll change because i'm too afraid that i'll break that promise. i am still very sorry for the terrible things i have done to people, though, and i can only hope that i will become a better person in the future.
I also have some extremely fucking choice words for all of the dumbasses on this fuckscape of an internet who think it's okay to compare "proshippers" to child rapists. i would love to argue how that isn't accurate, but i know you'll never listen. you're too close-minded to care because you involve pedophilia in this. you are in your rights to hate "proshipping," but the farthest you should ever take it is blocking them and moving on. so many people take it way too far and honestly I've been far too nice to their kind. fuck each and everyone of your brainlet asses. @themoralgoats in particular once barged into my discord DMs and asked me why i had something "problematic" in my ao3 bookmarks. like that's any of your fucking business. you also once dug up a toxic post i made to someone else that was almost a year old at the time to make me look like i was contradicting myself (would add a link to what they said but couldn't find it so yeah). you and so many others force their anti-proship ideologies onto others, making unnecessary callout posts that i'm almost certain you know will incite harassment yet you don't care. another person who i won't name decided to harass me anyway even after i took down my stolen "proship" fic and apologized for it. i could go on more about shit like this, but i'm getting tired talking about it. people like them are one of the reasons why sometimes i just hate humanity.
I will not be leaving the internet anytime soon. i don't owe anyone the gratification of me leaving the entire internet, especially when they're asshole fucktards like @themoralgoats. i've wanted to leave this site for a while, but barely had the motivation to do so until i've been called out for this. i'll be logging off instead of deactivating so people will still be able to read and spread this letter. good riddance to this fucking hellsite.

Reposters, read this to understand me
What's crazy about the reposters that disrespect my wishes to give me an ounce of credit, practically run their accounts on my stuff, and continue to do so maliciously even after I ask them (before one specific person gets mad, this has happened multiple times) -
is that my videos on my YouTube channel like my cutscene compilations and stuff are free to use. I don't watermark my videos like that and never plan to. You're allowed to use the footage for your own stuff as much as you want (credit is appreciated but not required, as I've said to those who asked first to use it in their videos)
And you can screenshot it to high heaven, make edits out of it, whatever you want. So long as you don't just straight up reupload the entire video for the same purpose I already uploaded it of course. I recorded the footage and played through the games again to get it when theatre mode isn't available,
but it's an effort I don't mind being used transformatively after I've uploaded it, I'm happy to know it's useful. That's the point of my channel being a collection and archive. I never liked people slapping watermarks just on top of recorded cutscenes when there's not even personal gameplay in it because they didn't animate them themself (unlike how gif making and edits and such is a lot more personalized and wouldn't exist at all without that creative effort)
Even though a lot of effort goes into the compiling and editing, if you want to take screenshots and clips from my YouTube videos for any reason, you can. It's an archive and that's the point. The end product is identical to the official product, compiling aside, therefore I don't feel protective ownership, unless someone reuploaded my entire video as a copy with no changes or other purpose
But my blog isn't an archive. It's a personalized expression of my passion that my YouTube account isn't (aside from the long ass gushing descriptions on there lol), my gifs, screenshots, upscales, edits, compilations, collages, etc are not for people to just steal and practically run their account on with no credit. It makes me feel used and taken for granted
But here's the thing, I actually don't mind the odd screenshot or gif being used by people every now and then- especially if they don't know it's mine. Official Sega accs have used my gifs. Popular meme accounts have used them. I've just recently seen an artist you all love that hates my guts and blocked me use my Lost World Eggman CG "if you insist" gif on Twitter and I bet she didn't know it was me that made it.
(It was this one, just before I added this watermark)
Tumblr media
And does it make me angry? No
I can always tell when people use images and gifs that have been on my blog from the frames and duration of the gif to the exact dimensions of a crop in an image. Then some people even take edits where I've made the arrangement myself from erasing backgrounds, upscaling, and compiling or have even drawn on it and so it's not even subtle and literally did not exist before I made it
But I know it's not always malicious and sometimes it might just be useful and a one off- or it's at least being used transformatively, for the sake of evidence or analysis of their own, or has interesting commentary, or something like that. I don't mind this. But if you're practically just remaking my exact posts or reposting my images without any transformative efforts and commentary at all, it becomes a problem
Especially when you run an account where it's practically just all my stuff back to back, with no commentary, or commentary where you're repeating things I've said or trying to talk like me because that's creepily happened before on Instagram while they were reposting my stuff. I know that if you do that then you're just visiting my blog and grabbing every image I post. I don't want to run your account for you
A lot of effort goes into what I make. people act like it doesn't matter if it isn't art but it does to me. I put a lot of effort into recording my own footage and compiling it, then turning them into gifs, making edits, taking screenshots etc. I have constant chronic pain and fatigue too to the point I've had fainting attacks when it becomes too overwhelming. And still I give what I make my all for my blog
It feels like a slap in the face when people download and repost knowingly and spitefully when I politely ask them to stop. I put my heart and soul into what I create and it hurts to see it taken for granted, especially when I don't get an ounce of credit and they get more traction and praise for the things I myself created. You think making it yourself is too much effort compared to stealing? Well try having chronic pain and fatigue and still making it yourself
If you're wondering what makes taking stuff from my blog different to my videos, it's because the final product of the stuff on my blog is more personalized and very different to the official product. The gifs, edits, upscales, compiling, and transformative efforts in my work is vastly different to me just recording cutscenes and slapping my watermark on the whole video
And that's the reason why I don't want the stuff on my blog to be taken and mass reposted, compared to my videos where you can screenshot and clip as much as you want because that's why they're there. Choosing to steal everything I personalized like that on my blog when you could literally just go to my videos and screenshot them as much as you want bothers me
Because then it seems like total laziness to me. Because they already take a lot of work to record and compile, yet I'll allow you to screenshot and clip them without watermarks and credit, but you'd rather just take them from my blog because you can't even be bothered to take screenshots or make gifs- when I do all of the above myself- and with chronic pain and fatigue making it extra effort
I deeply regret that I didn't watermark the contents of my blog from the start but I'm going out of my way to change that since people don't respect when I ask them not to repost
And to those who have just happened to use my images or gifs unintentionally a couple of times or you just had them on hand, I don't mind because I know you didn't do it maliciously. They're also free to save for personal use off the internet, I just don't want everything I ever make being reposted like some people do on purpose so they can practically run their whole account on me
But here malicious reposters, if you need content so bad, screenshot/gif/make edits/whatever you want out of these videos yourself. Because at least then you actually did part of it yourself and have something to be proud of instead of using my blog to run your account-
even when even at that it's using some of my efforts in my game recording and video editing/compiling :P

PSA from a fandom con photographer
As some of you know, I'm a con photographer. A while back, a bunch of us joined a group chat together, and we talk about all things cons and photography in there. Recently, the subject of photo theft has come up again, but this time a new comment was made and that's why I'm here.
In the past, I've heard photographers express frustration about people reposting our photos with watermarks cropped out or otherwise removed. Sometimes, these photos are edited further and someone else's watermark slapped on top of it. This is disrespectful, at best, and really offends the original photographer. Usually, this is done in an effort to gain clout online, and not for any artistic reasons. This is not what I'm here to talk about.
I know that a lot of folks on Tumblr use con photos for fic headers and aesthetics and such, especially for RPF fics. (Because we can totally tell whether a photo is Jensen or Dean, even with the background edited out, he's just that good.) It's come to my attention that some photographers would be REALLY uncomfortable with their art being used this way. They don't read fic, they don't understand it, or they just don't want their art used in a way that misinterprets the moment captured in the photo, even if it's fiction.
We need to respect this.
How do we feel when someone reblogs our fics and uses it to prop up an argument about our characters that we disagree with? We feel kinda shitty. That's how photographers feel when their photos are used in ways they weren't consulted about.
How do we fix this?
When you search Google and find an image from a con, do a reverse lookup on that image and AT LEAST TRY to find the original photographer. If the photo has been taken in the last year or so, you can come to me and see if I know who took it, too.
Ask that photographer if they are okay with you using their image in the way you intend. I know this is a pain, but remember how you'd feel if someone used your art without asking permission!
Many times, if you ask, the answer will be yes. Sometimes, it may be no. Please respect the answer you receive.
If you honestly try and can't find the photographer, then at least put a comment captioning this on the post where you use the photo. If you make a good faith effort and express this in your caption, that at least lets us know that you tried.
If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask me!
Tumblr media
Personal note from me: If you like any of my photos, you are welcome to use them. I know I don't make the best photos in the fandom, so this isn't much, but it's there.
Also, "credit to Google" or "I found this on Google" is not credit. Google does not create images. Google only indexes them.
Just remember that there is a person behind every image and piece of art you find on Google.
Also, if you don't contact the artist/photographer, how does that person know that you liked their work? They don't. This is the same as if someone reads your fic but doesn't hit the heart or reblog it. Personally, I LOVE getting asked about my photos the same way I love hearing feedback on my fics. Let your photographer know you love their work!
I've been asked about screen grabs and gifs. I'm referencing just those photos taken by people at cons. Screengrabs and gifs also take talent to create, so if you can find out who made them and give them credit, that's awesome. Photos taken from the star's Twitter or IG....that's a good question. Credit would go to them, but they are impossible to ask if they mind. An argument could also be made that they know what might happen to any photo they put out there. (Maybe put a link to the original as credit?)
It was only recently that I saw someone comment about their photo being used to apply a narrative to Jensen based on his facial expression in the photo, and a brief mention of fic happened right after that, and I just got the feeling that certain photographers would not be pleased to know how we use their photos, sometimes.
As far as I know, no photographer has found their photo in a fic header and complained. But based on what was said, if they did, they might not be happy. And not just because most photos used in a fic header end up being further edited to make it work with the header, beyond cropping. For instance, an asexual photographer might feel icky about their photo being used as a header for a smut fic.
TL;DR - Credit your photographers in your headers, edits, and mood boards when at all possible. Make the effort to contact them and ask for permission. Some may give you blanket permission as I have. Some may not. Either way, this is their art that you're manipulating, so please respect it.
steps off soap box Thank you for listening!

meeyow!!! hello there, I'm Tonix, this is my secondary account lol. I'm mainly an artist, but I may write some headcanons from time to time.
I'm gonna post my lazier stuff, more explicit stuff, & thoughts here so look out for that
fandoms:
- Transformers ���🚓
- Hazbin Hotel 🌹👁️‍🗨️
- Portal/Half-Life 🧡💙
- The Stanley Parable 〽️🪣
- ULTRAKILL 🩸🪽
- Ace Attorney ⚖️✒️
- Wolvesville 🐺🏘️
(this list will get updated as time goes on)
stuff I do :
- digital & traditional art
- animation sometimes
- OCs
- roleplay
- sometimes little headcanons and stuff???
- idk there's not much else, if you're a mutual ask for art if you want, usually just gonna be sketches
- I do commissions so if you ever want one of those yeah, reduced price for friends/mutuals
content warnings, DNI, and blog rules below, please read. (separate rules for headcanons/writing requests are here)
CWs:
- bugs, either talked about or posted about, I love bugs (probably won't TW this past here so, heed my warning)
- violence, guns/knives, potential talk of cannibalism, occasional dark jokes/comedic violence, etc. (text stuff might not be tagged, but gore art will most likely be tagged as #gore art, #robogore and/or #gore)
- possible mention of drugs; all will be censored, won't go into anything crazy
- bright colors/very saturated art (will be tagged & probably put under a cut. block #bright colors and #neon if you don't want to see any of this)
- maybe some NSFT lol (will tag either #suggestive or #nsft)
- I may ramble and get annoying
DNI:
- under 18, sorry pals. feel free to interact on my main account tho!
- super religious blogs (excluding fandoms obv)
- on that same note, super political blogs
- anyone toxic or looking to start drama
- not really a DNI, but I'm aromantic, keep that in mind while talking to me and don't push your luck
- AI art users
- proshippers
- "don't support X creator"/"did you know that X said Y about Z" fellas, again, no unnecessary drama here please
blog rules:
- don't repost my art anywhere else, even with credit given. ask me directly before using as a PFP/banner/etc., but using as wallpaper is fine so long as you don't share it. (note: sharing a link to one of my posts somewhere is absolutely fine)
- do not use my art for your own OCs; inspiration is totally fine but if you're just snagging my stuff just... no, man, no
- generally don't request art unless you're a mutual, but if you're really polite about it or give an idea that I really like I may draw you something
- asks may be deleted without warning and without telling you. if you did something that upset me I'll try to reach out and tell you the first few times, but past that you're blocked, yada yada yada.
and lastly, this is totally gonna be a repeat, but here's my biggest rule of all: absolutely no drama here. be dramatic about anonymous people all you want, but no-one you could identify by looking them up. this is also not your place to complain/nitpick about something that someone else on here (namely I) might like.
cancel culture is a huge no-no here. people are people; people make mistakes and have shitty opinions. unless they were convicted of a crime, I don't wanna hear about whose content I should/shouldn't enjoy.

This is my sideblog for all things Maribat/DCxMLB/MLB-crossover related.
Main: @abyssal-ali
Ao3: AbyssalAli
abyssal-ali’s masterlist
You can also find my Master Masterlist in my navigation bar.
Ali's Administrivia
Contents:
~Rules & Regulations
~Submission Suggestions
~Housekeeping Hours
    ~People to Know
Rules & Regulations
> please be polite
> I'm here for fandom, not politics or drama. The only drama I want to consume is the Bats' clownery
> reposting my original content is refused. Talk to me about translations, adaptations, etc.
> feel free to write fanfic of my fanfic, or be inspired by something I wrote. I'd love it if you tagged me!
> I do not allow my work to be stolen. Even if it may not be 'good' or professional, I came up with the writing elements and spent hours of my time writing, typing, editing, and polishing
>I also do not steal other people's works. I have done my best to give credit where I have been directly inspired. If you think one of my works is plagiarizing someone else's (or vice versa), let me know and I'll do my best to resolve the issue
For this reason, among others, I have included dates in my Master Masterlist and have dates enabled on tumblr. Also, there are a lot of repeated tropes in this fandom, so it's hard to write completely new content without reusing some elements of others' stories
Submission Suggestions
I am open to writing maribat/DCxMLB fics upon request.
> When submitting a prompt/ask, please keep in mind that I have an offline life, my personal fanfics, and other requests/collabs/etc to work on. Answering, writing, and posting your request may take some time
> Again, please be polite
> I reserve the right to reject your request
> When your request has been acknowledged and accepted, it will appear under the {...pending…} banner in my Requests Masterlist
> I will not write underage, non-con, or pedophilia. Almost anything else can be negotiated
> Send me asks about my fics, either posted or WIPS!
> Icebreakers are also welcome, though depending on the level of information I am comfortable divulging, I may not answer (even if the ask isn’t prying in general, I prefer to keep my privacy and anonymity as best I can on the internet)
> Submission example:
Request:
"Hi, I really liked your Cardigan AU and would like to see an extra scene inspired by the first verse of Cardigan. Would that be possible? Thank you."
Response:
"Of course, love! I actually have 2 extra scenes inspired by lines from verse 1: "vintage tee, brand-new phone/ high heels on cobblestones" and "sequin smile, black lipstick". One or both should be up within two weeks. I'll tag you* when I post!"

Writing and Artwork DO NOT(s)!
Since I need to make myself a bit more clear, I'll add a few guidelines for the DO NOT section of my Tumblr.
Please be aware: I do have dead accounts on the net, and it's fine to take note of them. But by now, those accounts haven't been touched since early to maybe mid 2013 or so.
A lot of my active sites I have listed under my carrd. I don't use these sites anymore: MediaMiner.org (Oreana Date), AdultFanfiction.net (Oreana), and Fanfiction.net (Oreana Galena). I do have old fics on them, but again, they've not been touched in quite some time now.
If you're ever not sure, you can always ask me. I mostly go by Oreana online. Sometimes Oreana Galena, but not always.
♥PLEASE DO NOT♥:
Repost and claim as yours or repost period. Just don't. I worked hard on those pieces, and even if I've 'moved on' from a fandom, it doesn't give you the right to repost them somewhere. If someone ever approaches you claiming to be me or a friend of mine, saying you have the right to? It's not me and that is NOT my friend. No friend of mine will ever be a mouthpiece for me, having that right to give you the go ahead to post anything of mine.
Take pieces of my drabbles and mash them together to re-upload. Even if you Frankenstein my works, you're still stealing from me. Even if you take something you requested, you're still stealing from me! I will report you.
Even if you requested it, it's still my work. You may have the base ideas, but I am the writer / artist. Unless we've worked something out, you do not have permission to reupload the story, drabble, art piece, etc I did for you. Always check the post in question! If they've linked back to me with my consent, then that's fine! (Again, you are fine to check if I approved it, of course!)
If you commissioned me, you may post it with proper credit given by linking back to me. If I ever find you have taken credit for something you paid for, I will black list your name.
Do not trace over or use my artwork as a base! It is fine to use some of my works as inspiration or base thoughts, but do not just doodle over it without issue.
Do not use my background artwork without my consent! Do not even ASK if you may use my background art freely! You may pay me for a background of your choice, but you may not use my backgrounds!
Do not sell my artwork or writing! It's sad I have to say this, but here we are. I've had enough of this happening already.
If you see me (or my art/ writing) on any other site other than the sites listed in my carrd—that is NOT me.
Bring it to my attention immediately. Thank you. ♥

just a quick post. i was reading a few article on how to identify bot accounts and discover that i may be miss identified as a bot/spam account since i’m new and dont know much about this wild west of a platform.
so I am here to help assist other newcomers with a summary of my research, keeping in mind I’ve only been here for a day so if someone more experienced is giving out advice theirs is probably better.
1. bot/spam accounts generally have a default icon and background. (fixed this up first thing i did after making the account was add an icon and i just uploaded a background)
Recommend course of action: add an Icon and background as soon as possible. and maybe play around with you theme a bit.
2.username looks inappropriate or spam like. (this isn’t a problem for me since i didn’t do this because why would I)
Recommend course of action: just don’t, if you may have made this mistake, best to change it.
3. a blog is sending messages that are asking if you want content that is potentially nsfw, example ‘do you want pictures of n***d women on your phone’
Recommend course of action: report and block. i speak from experience, i got one of these messages and didn’t even finish reading it before blocking and reporting. also don’t send this type of message to people wether or not they think you are a bot that would make anyone uncomfortable and explicit content is against community guidelines.
4. apparently like strings on accounts and large amounts of reblogging are suspicious.
so say you go to someone account and read like there art or something and you like everything there. apparently 10 or more likes on one account within a short time period is considered a like string.
this is one I found myself guilty of, so what happened was I found the account of someone who made a series of tutorials on how to draw kobolds that I had found in pinterest so I followed the and i wanted like all the tutorials (there where 10) but i decided that liking just the tutorials seemed suspicious so i liked some art in between (it’s good art.) i now see that liking just the tutorials would have not been as suspicious. to that person, sorry for the spam likes, I have learned my lesson.
Reblogging, so something like 40 or more rebloggs in a day with little context, than nothing for a few days looks suspicious.
Recommend course of action:
like strings; of you come across an account you really like just like 3 or 4 posts and follow. you will get another chance to like more.
Reblogging; i don’t see this one being much of a problem if you just casually use tumblr. I myself have spent some time (but not all my time) on tumblr and Liked around 250 posts over 24 hours but have only reblogged 12 (which is probably still a lot) but i have also added something with the reblog such as a comment along with the normal tags people usually only put (i feel bad reblogging without contributing something). the only way i think you would reach a number like 40+ is if you are on all day with nothing else to do and are reblogging every third post you see (not that i’m judging, apparently reblogging helps more that likes.) or you are reblogging reblogs in response to them on a post that went viral. if you are adding to those i don’t really think that would be suspicious. And try not to reblog too many posts from one blog in a short amount of time that seems very spammy
REPOSTING IS NOT THE SAME AS REBLOGGING
reblogging, if you like the reblog it likes the original post. this is helping in most cases from what i’ve read. (just try not to over do it.)
reposting is copying the image or text (some cases both) and uploading it on your own, often done without permission form or crediting the original author. this is not helpful, if you have permission form the original author and you credit them, that should be ok.
yet again, i am also new and may be mistaken about some of the stuff here. this is based on personal experience and research i’ve done.
hope this helps others new users to this wild west. I intend on posting my art soon i just need to get it all together first, that i can upload a few pieces at a time.
If you are an experienced user who has any corrections of stuff to add I’m sure new users like myself would love the help.

I’m sorry I blocked you but I didn’t steal anything, I got it off of Pinterest! I didn’t even claim it was mine. You can block me for all I care but I didn’t steal this artwork on purpose. I felt bad that I didn’t give credit that’s why I put it on my post in the first place that was my mistake. I’m sorry again.
I tried to respectfully explain to you that reposting someone's art without permission IS STEALING ART, and then you blocked me and deleted my comments. You may not be claiming the art is yours, but reposting artwork that does not belong to you IS STEALING. Saying that the artwork "doesn't belong to you" on your post is not giving credit, especially after someone informed you who the original artist was and you could have AT LEAST put their name and a link to their profile on the post (WHICH BTW! is still not okay! You need to get explicit permission from an artist to repost their art!). I highly encourage you to remove all of the stolen art you have reposted on your account and no longer repost art you find on pinterest. You don't have to apologize to me and I'm not trying to make you feel bad. You clearly weren't aware that reposting art is not okay, but I hope now that I have tried multiple times to explain this to you that you will delete the stolen artwork on your blog.

Hey everyone.
First of all DO NOT, AND I MEAN DO NOT, HARASS OR ABUSE THIS PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. IF YOU DO THAT OVER REPOSTING ART, YOU'RE AN AWFUL PERSON AND I WANT NO RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU, UNFOLLOW ME.
Okay, with that cleared up:
This person, @headassholeofthemagnusinstitute, has been reposting art without credit, such as mine.
Tumblr media
I tried to politely ask them to take it down (that's not even Martin....) and i was immediately blocked.
Tumblr media
While this is bothersome and MEGA inconsiderate, it's more annoying than anything. Many other artists who had their art taken, though, might have another opinion.
What I would like you to do, if you have time to:
• Unfollow that blog if you follow it
• If you recognize someone's else's art in there, warn the artist. Let the artist take the action they find fair
• If you're the artist, please don't harass or abuse this person. Worse things have happened and this person seems to not be profiting from that. If you decide to be a piece of shit let it be clear that's not my responsibility and I'm vehemently against it
• If you'd like, you can Report the blog > For violating copyright law > File a DMCA. Artwork is copyright by the artist, so it's proper to do so in order to claim art theft.
• Please please please don't repost art if you have any way to avoid it. At the very very very least, as if the person has deactivated their online presence or you're a blog that only features artists for instance, credit them. Google Image Search is a very good tool to identify artists; saying "i couldn't find the name" or "i found it on Google/Pinterest" isn't different to what that person's doing.
• Once again, DO NOT HARASS OR ABUSE THAT PERSON. If you do so, NEVER claim association with me or this post, because I think you're even more shit and you should feel terrible.
and lastly
• Go give your love to the artists you like. Share their stuff, message them with praise telling them why you love their stuff, and support them financially if possible. Do it constantly, if you constantly appreciate art of any kind. It's very important to us.

What not to do to artists...
This is something that happened a couple days ago when I posted part of the Pride Series drawings on Twitter. Just a normal compilation of a few of the couples (since I’m posting the couples individually only on Tumblr and Instagram):
Tumblr media
[Description/translation:  My tweet reading as “Continuing with more couples for #PrideMonth” and displaying traditional drawings of the shipps CaitVi, Narlie, Lumity and WolfStar, specifically in this order]
Nothing out of the ordinary, right? The post was doing pretty good actually, more than any of my other posts on Twitter has! Until I came across the only comment on it...
[Putting it under the cut cause I guess I ranted a little too much, sorry...]
Tumblr media
[Description/translation: A reply to the previous tweet reading as “This last one doesn’t make sense, they’re not a couple like the others, which are actually good. By the way, I prefer Sirius with James” and displaying four digital pictures of the shipp Sirius x James, from Harry Potter]
To which I replied:
Tumblr media
[Description/translation: A Twitter conversation among my Twitter account and the same account in the previous picture:
Me: “I’m just drawing shipps/couples that I personally like, it doesn’t necessarely mean that they are or have to be canon ^^” and it’s okay if you like another shipp, one thing doesn’t exclude the other”
Other: “Ok, I just foung it weird to see Sirius and Lupin as a couple.”
Me: *smile and thumbs up emoji*]
First of all... I’m not even go into the “reposting without credit or permission” territory, cause I know that most artists are aware of that already, but what I don’t understand is how this person thought it was okay to just go basically “well, that couple is weird, I like this one better” and tried to JUSTIFY it by reposting random art they found on the replies of my original fanart.
Look, I’m totally fine if you shipp other couples with the same character. There’s literally no problem with it and I even encourage that because it’s totally okay to work with different dynamics. Believe me, I’m a multishipper in many cases. But if you don’t like or never heard about my shipp (which...is kinda odd, I thought WolfStar was pretty popular in the fandom lmao), what gives you the right to go on my post, where I drew the couples that I like and act like I shouldn’t have drawn it and put along with other couples because “it doesn’t make sense” to you?
Like, they tried to say that my not-canon couple is weird by telling me their not-canon shipp is better? What’s the logic here? (And again, I’m not hating on their shipp, I literally couldn’t care less. I’m just intrigued by the aUDACITY)
I mean, I’ve already seen comments on other artists’ posts that were variations of “oh, I really dislike this couple/character, but the fanart is lovely!”, which is not a good thing to say already...but at least they’re like halfway supportive and kinda have good intentions behind it. Not ideal, but not as bad either. At least in my personal opinion, of course.
But I guess people forget they have the option to just...scroll past it if you don’t like it. Or, at least, don’t be rude when commenting on someone else’s work. Gosh, there are so many shipps and characters that I hate, but some artists that I love and admire do like them, so when they post something related to that shipp I just go “alright” and don’t interact with it at all. Because it’s not within my right to make an artist feel bad about themselves because I dislike the characters involved.
Is it so hard to...not give your opinion when no one asked? And I mean it in this specific case. Cause why would you go out of your way to try to invalidate someone’s work because...you don’t see the sense in it?
Sorry about the rant. This just got me really upset (and laughing at the same time). This is probably just a teenager with too much free time on their hands that happened to scroll past my post and thought it was a personal attack or something.
The moral of this whole text was: please, have some common sense. If you don’t like something, just sigh at it and move on (this phrase applying specifically for this situation with shipps and art). Do not repost fanart without permission, that’s mean to the original artist. Don’t try to shove your favorite couple on someone else’s work. Be nice to people, in general.
Thank you for reading this far!
