///
Disclaimer: None of what is below is mine. Not even the descriptions. :)
I have read all of these though and I can promise they are very good!
WARNING = Possibly triggering. Rather be safe than sorry, but you can certainly ignore these.
///
Fics for Superwholock, Supernatural, Doctor Who, Avengers, Merlin, Sherlock and Miscellaneous below.
Superwholock (and Variations)
Second Chances: When Sam Winchester finds himself stuck in New York City with new abilities he doesn’t know how to use and a recent life-changing event he can’t remember, the last thing he expects is to find friends and allies in the city’s resident heroes. But Sam isn’t the only new arrival to New York: the supernatural world doesn’t want to let Sam go, and their plans extend beyond just Sam and the city. Sam is going to have to bring together every hero he can to save New York—and maybe along the way, he can save himself, too.
New York City has been referred to as the City of Dreams, but for Sam Winchester, it’s more than that—it’s also the City of Second Chances. (VERY VERY GOOD AND STILL UPDATING; I’M STILL READING IT)
Breaking the Cycle: The TARDIS materializes at the Broward County Mystery Spot on a Tuesday.
The Other Loki: There’s a new Trickster in town. Tony and the other Avengers aren’t sure what to make of him.
The Tomato in the Mirror: Loki body-swaps with Sam. Later, things get weird.
Don't Blink? No Problem: Castiel meets a Weeping Angel. It's not a fair fight.
Supernatural
Road Song: Dean attempts to calm the reader with a drive in the Impala after a night filled with nightmares.
WARNING Cabin Fever: When you’ve been cooped up with the Winchesters for too long your plan to get an hour away from them takes a terrible turn for the worse.
Cold as Ice: After an accident, Dean and the reader find themselves stuck in the woods during a storm.
Counting the Days: The world was overrun by the Croatoan virus, Sam said ‘yes’ to Lucifer, and Dean hasn’t talked to his brother in five years. One of these things is not like the others.
WARNING You Bleed, I Bleed: Dean confronts you, and tells you that from now on, anything you do to yourself, he will do to himself. Because he just can’t stand to see you hurting, alone in your pain.
Imagine Winchester Saving You From Jack Frost: (no description) “Ice crystals blossomed across your skin, growing and claiming your body as it’s own. You were glistening, the frost reflecting the evening sun like millions of stars. The beauty of winter dominated your body, sprouted from your neck, your neck that had gelid fingers curled around it.”
Tired and Scared: So, backstory is that the reader is doing some sort of a quest and it’s doing bad stuff to her, sort of like Sam and the trials.
I Think I Might Need You: Dr. Jade Thorpe is a strong, independent woman. It’s how she defines herself, the lens through which she views the world. So when everything she knows and has drops out from under her, she has nowhere to turn but to three men who she’s never met, who she will grow to know as, “the f****** Winchesters and that goddamn angel.”
NSFW All Your Pretty Lies: The first time you meet Dean Winchester he almost kills you. Don’t all healthy relationships start with attempted murder?
WARNING You are the Blood in my Veins: You’ve been dealing with self harm for years, the brothers don’t know yet and you don’t know how much more you can take.
Long I Stood: [Endverse!AU] After his phone call with Dean in “The End,” Sam is exhausted. Still recovering from his near-relapse when hunters Reggie Hull and Tim Janklow tried to force him to drink demon blood and unwilling to fall into bed because Lucifer is waiting in his head, Sam sets off running.
He runs straight into the end of the world, where Zachariah tells him that this is where his choices will inevitably lead him unless he plays his part. Sam finds unexpected allies in the survivors at Camp Chitaqua, and maybe―just maybe―there’s still reason for hope. Maybe they won’t always wind up here. Not if Sam has his say.
When Summoning, Please Watch the Wording: (A strange crossover of Supernatural and Good Omens. I don’t even know if it’s canonically correct but it was very entertaining.)
Find the Light: This is the first part of a series! Sam and Dean discover Y/N as a victim of a Djinn.
In the Quiet Moments: Being stuck in your own horrible inner thoughts is hard. It’s even harder to when those thoughts feel more and more real. Sometimes, you need someone to pull you back to reality and remind you of your worth. 
Waiting: The reader is seriously injured on a hunt. Sam and Dean take you to Bobby’s so he can patch you up. Dean is freaked to Hell.
WARNING Chink in the Armor: Dean Winchester, in the years following Sam’s departure for college, was not a very stable individual.
WARNING Trust Us: You get kidnapped by the two mass murderers you’ve seen on TV, Sam and Dean Winchester. But are they as bad as they are made out to be?
Heavy Sleeper: Imagine Sam and Dean finding the reader asleep in the impala after a long hunt.
Period Pains: The reader has her period worse than usual and Dean takes note, taking care of her in anyway he can. (so cute)
Headache: Reader has a migraine and Sam and Dean don’t realize it and are annoying.
Through the Dark: You finally go on your first hunt, accompanying Sam and Dean. The experience leaves you haunted and Dean does his best to comfort you.
WARNING Be Free: AU from end of Southern Comfort. Sam takes Dean’s words to heart, his mind throwing in its own two cents. Believing it is what will make Dean happy, Sam runs and becomes untraceable until it is almost too late. Dean calls in any help he can to find his brother, including angelic assistance. But finding someone with the knowledge Sam has, and who doesn’t want to be found, the remaining members of Team Free Will better pull out all the stops, and fast.
Imagine Falling Asleep While Watching TV with Dean One Shot: Exhaustion. That was the sign of a hunt well done.
Finding Out You Made a Crossroad’s Deal to Save Him: (no description; preference)
Selfish Motives: Imagine taking a bullet for Dean and he gets emotional while patching you up.
WARNING Reflection: A dark time from the reader’s past comes to light.
Shattered: “The one you shattered? I can fix it.” He said, hand already hovering over your hip. It wasn’t the first time you’d had this conversation, you had the unfortunate feeling it wouldn’t be the last. (tooth-rotting fluff)
Protection Detail: “You’re okay, you’re safe.” The man driving spoke softly. Something about the deep timbre of his voice sounded familiar and strangely comforting. You’d heard it before, but couldn’t for the life of you figure out where or when. There was sincerity in his tone- he truly believed what he was saying. Safe. Too bad he’s wrong. He couldn’t possibly know who you were running from or what they’d done to you. Even worse, what they’d do to him for getting in the way. He was in far over his head and it would only get him killed.
WARNING If Anything Happened to You: After jumping in front of the gun one too many times, the Winchester’s are wondering if there is something more to it than just saving them.
He Isn’t Heavy, He’s My Brother: What happens when the boys are stranded and one of them becomes violently ill? (it’s dean)
You Can’t Rule with a Broken Upper Hand: Successfully killing Lilith and keeping Dean out of Hell has the brothers ready for a good, old-fashioned, hunter-on-demon brawl. It’s time to get back to the basics, back to the way things used to be, when monsters got ganked and that was the end of things. That said, they are not ready for a new kind of creature to appear in the middle of their fight, covered in blood and begging for mercy they aren’t supposed to give.
Meanwhile, Castiel is panicking. He’s been tortured senseless for four decades straight, and now he’s been thrown down in front of two hunters. If he thought his brothers were bad… well, all angels knew how cruel hunters were… and Castiel has no idea how to convince them he doesn’t need to be, in the shorter one’s words, ganked.
Forgotten: Sam and Dean are working a case in Wyoming, but are distracted by news of a dangerous angel called “Castiel” who they can’t remember ever having heard of before. The name seems a little bit familiar, but neither of the boys is sure why. (THIS ONE IS SO GOOD)
Bronco: Reader goes on a hunt alone and hides more serious injuries from Sam and Dean. She heads to Bobby’s to recover only to have the boys show up shortly after. (I love this one)
WARNING We As Human: Sam has been struggling with depression since Stanford. Well, not really struggling. Excelling. He’s been excelling at depression since Stanford, and it’s only gotten worse since he started hunting again. Unfortunately, the relapses from John’s death and Dean’s trip to Hell were bad, but they had nothing on the downward spiral triggered by Sam starting the Apocalypse.
But Sam has never come clean before, and he isn’t about to start. He’s self-medicating, he’s suppressing, and he’s handling things in the Trademark Winchester Way. He can do this. He can totally do this.
Spoiler: No, he can’t.
WARNING Stop the Clock: Being cooped up in the bunker with the Men of Letters archive at your fingertips, you’re now the go-to person for help with lore. But having so many hunters depend on you is overwhelming. You don’t have enough time for yourself and you’ve reached a breaking point. (Dean holding you after a panic attack and comforting you.)
WARNING Chance Encounters: You are running. As a hunter, it seems like you are always running. Whether it be toward an enemy or away. You find yourself in a bar and are saved by Sam and Dean. As Dean gets curious about you, you start to fall for him. With all that is going on with the boys, you offer to help.
Come Hell or Highwater: Oneshot where the reader is stranded on a little boat in the middle of the ocean with one of the boys, and has a super repressed fear of water.
Blood and Tears: The reader is having really bad period cramps, and Dean doesn’t know how to help. (vulgar)
Deep thoughts: When the Winchesters find her, strung up and tortured by a demon, they realize she’s something more than an average human. Sam’s curious, Dean’s apprehensive, and Elise knows everything - because she can hear their thoughts.
Walkie-Talkies: The reader and Dean have to wait out a blizzard at a motel. Question is: will things heat up or not?
Ruination: The night Dean kicks him out of the bunker, Castiel has to find shelter from the rain. But he unwittingly stumbles across a monster’s lair and is caught…and as far as he knows, no one’s looking for him. Meanwhile, Sam’s not buying Dean’s story about why Cas left, and he won’t be satisfied until he finds some answers. Assuming the ex-angel lasts that long.
One Saved Message: After a hunting accident puts Sam out of commission for a couple of days, Dean decides to surprise his brother with a new phone, since his old one is toast. Even better is when he finds that he’s been able to save all of Sam’s old information and restore it to his cell. That’s when he discovers an old voicemail that Sam has kept saved for the last two and a half years… (Voicemail fix-it)
Stargazing: Sam used to want something for himself. Voicemail and amulet fix-it.
Desolation Angels: She slides into the passenger seat and shuts the door as he throws the car into drive. He speeds down the empty highway, deftly avoiding the dead cars dotting the asphalt. // AU starting at the end of AHBL Part One. (An exercise in character study.)
Lullaby: Imagine TFW finding out that the sleeping pills you take every night don’t stop the nightmares; they just keep you from screaming.
Worth It: Tag to Plucky Pennywhistle’s. When they get back to the motel room, Dean discovers Sam’s been hiding his injuries.
Avengers
Fallen Hero: A five part story of Peter and Tony’s relationship beyond what we’re shown in the MCU. If you’re into having your heart shredded and crying yourself to sleep, this is for you.
Five Times Peter Said ‘Sorry’ to Mr.Stark: …and the one time he didn’t have to.
Marvel Masterlist: This Masterlist includes Avengers and the Hell’s Kitchen Boys (Defenders and Punisher).
WARNING Dumb Luck: Having a panic attack during your flight wasn’t part of the plan. Lucky for you your seatmates are there to save the day.
Identity Theft: An organically developed, platonic slow-burn of Avengers-fam dynamic with a heavy hand of Irondad & Spiderson. Throw in an overdose of whump, a couple of cunning villains and a big-bad hiding in the shadows, and you got yourself this hot mess.
WARNING The Homes We Make: Peter Parker isn’t the type of boy to run crying to Tony Stark because he can’t handle a punch. Michelle Jones and Ned Leeds aren’t the type of friends to ignore Peter’s rapidly declining health. Eugene “Flash” Thompson isn’t an idiot.
Division of the Heart: Tony Stark is sick. Surely that’s not going to be a problem? When he doesn’t tell the team a normal cold is a little more complicated with the Arc Reactor, things get a little out of hand.
Doctor Who
WARNING Reasons: The Doctor comforts his companion when she sees a familiar face, a face she wishes she could forget.
Time to Let Go: ANGST ANGST ANGST :)
Flowers for Words: This is a little… darker than my usual. There’s kinda graphic descriptions of bloody things, so this ain’t for the squeamish.
WARNING Trust: After running away from your abusive father, you find yourself in the dark and all alone. That is, until a strange man approaches you.
Stolen: The Doctor left Rose in the other universe with the Meta-Crisis Doctor to give her a chance at a normal life. Now he’s come back to get her, and the knowledge of what she’s been put through will drive him temporarily mad.
Vision: (no description but I can tell you it’s good)
Waving Through History: The Doctor will never see her again, but that doesn’t mean she can’t see him again. // Seven times Amy and Rory visit the past Doctor and one time Amy sees the future Doctor. Post-Angels, 1930-1988.
Trapped in an Elevator: You are late for work when you become trapped in an elevator with the Eleventh Doctor.
The Curious Case of the Doctor and the Cat: Master of the Seven Blocks Rusty Grr'wa is a cat, a Good Boy with a simple life. He must protect and patrol his Seven Blocks, generously let select People pet his incredible fur, and look after the Stacy, the Mum, and the Dad. Then he runs into not-People the Doctor and the Doctor’s Clara Oswald. And then they must all deal with the Sky-thing. (crack)
Afraid of the Dark: It was quiet. That was the first thing that truly caught your attention.
Reality: A more realistic story of a whovian getting stuck in the “Doctor Who” universe. This isn’t the typical “Yay, I met the Doctor” story. If you suddenly found out the Doctor was real, wouldn’t you be a little scared? That would mean all the monsters were real too!
WARNING Psycho Savior: A young woman contemplates suicide by power steering fluid. An attempt to subvert the fan cliche in which the Doctor talks someone out of suicide.
Cold Comfort: The Doctor had his back turned, so he didn’t see how badly Rose’s hands shook as she wrapped them around the thick mug.
Human: The doctor decides it’s not safe for you to travel with him anymore, so he tries to push you away.
Pretty Girl: (no description) “I’m not beautiful,” you say one day.
WARNING: Knock Three Times: Two perfect strangers wake to find themselves being held in adjacent prison cells with no memories of who they are or how they got there. It isn’t until they are faced with agonizing trials that push the limits of self-sacrifice to new horrific heights, that they realize just what they’re facing and how much they will need to trust each other in order to survive.
WARNING Better Now: (no description)
Stellar Storytime: (no description)
Merlin
Deep in the Diamond of the Day: What if Merlin was the one to sustain the mortal injuries during the Battle of Camlann, not Arthur? Will the Once and Future King be able to save his friend? More importantly, will he WANT to after finally discovering Merlin’s secret? A fix-it fic for the series finale, which shattered my soul.
Allow One to ‘See’: When the King is attacked in his tent on patrol and falls into an unending sleep everyone is worried. What they don’t know is that Arthur is fine. In fact he is standing right here next to them, watching them all fret over his prone body. To stave off the boredom whilst a cure is found Arthur takes to wandering the castle and soon discovered a hidden side of Camelot he never knew about.
Or: Arthur’s soul gets trapped outside his body and takes to following his servant around. He gets an interesting insight into Merlin, his servant’s life and just how much Camelot needs the man.
Peace for Our Time: Merlin froze for several seconds before squinting at Arthur across the table. “I feel like I’m definitely misunderstanding the situation here.”
Arthur sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. “I really don’t think you are.”
“You want me to learn magic?”
In a Name: In the middle of some quest or another, Merlin, Arthur and the knights find themselves stuck in the middle of a shrine being told that, if they wish to proceed unharmed, they need only speak their true names and titles. Straight-forward enough, right? Wrong. Merlin really hates the Old Religion sometimes.
Sherlock
WARNING Write Love on Her Arms: (no description)
Spiderman Into the Spider-verse
Ground Zero: Basically, the plot of Spider-Man; Into the Spiderverse if they all got sent to Peter B.’s universe instead of Miles’
Stranger Things
Bleeding: Hopper confronts Reader seven weeks after she left Hawkins.
Timeless
All These Tears I’ve Cried: A snapshot of Lucy’s nightmares, and the aftermath of each. Loosely set between 2x05 and 2x06.
Detroit: Become Human
Skip-able NSFW Leap: Amanda thinks she’s won, but Connor has one last trick up his sleeve. He’s determined to find someone who can fix him and get rid of CyberLife’s influence once and for all. And of course that person is a human woman, the owner of a small android repairshop in downtown Detroit. And she’s not happy about the deviant android who’s just broken in, but necessity dictates she help CyberLife’s most sophisticated prototype escape his chains. With her help, Connor soon discovers what fills the void between the lines of his code.
The Good Doctor
Do No Harm: Shaun is a doctor. He heals the sick and injured, and he takes care of people that need his help. He made this vow in full, understanding the responsibility he was taking on. So, when the bus swerved, when it crashed and flipped, it came as second nature to him. Despite his pain, and despite his injuries, he still pushed himself to do as much as he could for those around him. And he did. Without hesitation, he tried to save as many people as possible. And in doing do, he wasn’t able to save himself.

Park Woojin Hogwarts Au
Tumblr media
This was actually easier to write than I predicted, so here we go~
• So you’d grown up moving place to place to place, country to country constantly growing up, • You’re parents move around a lot as they’re both some of the world’s best healers, moving place to place to teach people new techniques or ideas on how to treat rare illness’, or how to treat common ones more effectively, • They also travel to wherever is in need of healers - say a disaster happens or a new wave of flue, they’re be there, • So you and your twin sister just go with them, learning what they teach and picking other subjects up yourself as you go along from whoever was around you, • Or when your parents had some spare time, • Which was rare, • All of this adds together to make you and your sister extremely close, your best friend - or only friend , • A study buddy, • A partner in crime, • Simply company, as the two of you are often the only ones around,, • But you’re sisters, and ones that look identical at that, so there’s going to be arguments, • Big ones, • But yanno, let’s leave your dark past behind,
• Unlike Woojin himself, • But then your parents decide that maybe you should be getting a legitimate education, not just picking things up as you go along, • They both went to Hogwarts so they decide that’s the best place to go, • Because Hogwarts is the best school there is, obviously, • Although you where doing completely fine with that, and the thought of being surrounded be so many people in a school and making friends scared you tenfold, • I mean, you’d often been in crowds before, there where a lot of incidences in cities where you’d explore and experiment with the language and play with things, • But school is different okay, • So many rules, so many restrictions, you where forced with people, • You’d met other kids before and they’d talked about how some of the classes weren’t specialized or they where old fashioned, how hard it was to just learn, • Smh @ school system, • But your twin is excited at the prospect of an adventure, of gaining something, making the most of her new environment, probably to show off her knowledge of the world, of playing quidditch with others, • And she did absolutely everything to persuade you, so you agreed to go because it’d make her happy, • And people had always assumed if one of you where happy, the other was as well, • But your parents are still in Thailand dealing with a new advanced flu going around, so you end up at kings cross by yourselves, • You’d been to England many times and you’re used to having to blindly find your way, but the instructions on how to get to your platform are the least helpful, • And it doesn’t help your opinion of school, what kind of school has some vauge ass instructions on just to get there?
• Do they want you to attend or not? • So you hang around until you watch a group of older kids run head first into a damn solid wall and not crack their skull open but disappear, • You would be amazed but you’ve gotten used to being surprised constantly with the wizarding world, • So your sister grabs your hand without a word and drags you towards the wall with a huge grin on her face, • The platform is buzzing with activity as you pop onto it and your sisters eyes light up instantly but she grabs your hand to comfort you straight away, knowing you too well, • You manage to snag the smallest compartment to yourself, right at the end of the train where you already know no one else will look, • Your sister takes off quickly to go to explore and chat, so you sit and watch the scenery go past for the trip, • Completely alone, • You just pretend you’re in some moody music video and try not to think about how scary this all is, • As if starting your first school year isn’t scary enough, you have to get sorted with the first years as well, • But then you adopt some Muggle born kids and have to ignore everything on the boat ride to the castle to get sorted, • Because the only time you’re not awkward and shy? • When someone else is more awkward and shy than you, • So you pretend you know exactly what’s happening and that you totally aren’t afraid of what could be in those waters, • You know too much about magical water life, • And you entertain them with stories of when your sister and you adopted an injured Kneazle that sulked the streets in Switzerland that you refused to leave, • Your parents where all for it, especially because he was injured, • But tbh you’d take the kneazle, now named Schutz, whether your parents let you or not, • And that’s why you had a beautifully weird looking silver speckled cat with a lion’s tail, • He l loved you but was, okay, maybe slightly aggressive, • You gave a warning to the first years to maybe stay away if they wanted to stay un-injured, • (That kneazle only seemed to love you and your sister solely oops), • So you wonder in with the first years and have to stand at the front, a good head above all of them but at least you have your sister, who walks confidently and with a smile that could charm anyone), • You’re incredibly embarrassed but you watch as your sister gets sorted into Slytherin,  smiling and she bounces towards the green group of smiling students about her height, • And then you wobble up to the hat, • Your sister sends you a warm smile and a thumbs up, which spikes your confidence, • It’s on you for less than 5 seconds, • Gryffindor, • You feel like crying as you trudge towards the red and gold students, wondering how a hat can go so wrong, • Although they look warm and fun but you can’t help but wonder what the hell you’re going to do in this scary castle on your own, • Because your sister is already happily chatting with some of the others, bursting into laughter, and you can already feel yourself being distanced, • And it feels like falling, • So when you have to move into a room full of girls who are completely new, and are expected to quickly adapt, and everyone wants to talk to you about where you’ve been and what you’ve done, • It’s a little too much, yanno, • And while the people in your new house, Gryffindor, are as welcoming as it can get, you still find yourself unable to adapt, • You sit with your sister at meals, but she’s always chatting to her new friends, ones she made easily, and you’re just like a shadow, • You learn that there’s really no point, so while everyone sits eating in the hall, you find yourself in the library or walking around the lake or hiding in your home room, • You spend a hell of a lot of time with your cleaver Kittie Schutz, becoming your closest friend and most trusted confidante, • Schutz also seems to find it hard to adapt, following you most of the day, hissing at certain people, • (Who you then stayed well away from, Kneazle’s have good senses for people), • And keeping a healthy distance from other people, wary of tummy rubs even from the nicest Hufflepuffs, • After everyones eaten you trudge all the way to the kitchens, you just pop in and the house elves become quite fond of you, • But you’re not a Gryffindor, obviously not loud and adventurous and extroverted- like your Slytherin sister, • You become an elusive figure at Hogwarts, only your sister coming to find you occasionally to tell you the latest gossip, unaware of your discomfort at the school,
• And if you do walk around the school without obvious Gryffindor uniform everyone mistakes you for your sister, • And she breaks your heart, how she doesn’t seem to care much for you anymore, how she’s distanced herself and is living her dream, • But you don’t say anything to he because you don’t want to bring her down, she’s always been more outgoing, which makes you question why she isn’t Gryffindor, • But the classes are weird, • You’re massively ahead on some things, • Mainly the subjects that help healing, you excel in everything to do with that, your parents always very keen to teach you everything there is, • Madam Pomfrey who? • But have huge gaps in your knowledge with other things, so trying to stay with it all is challenge in itself, • But it’s weird for a different reason, • Your year of Gryffindor’s take classes with the Hufflepuffs’s so at least the class has a warm enough atmosphere, • But, • There’s this one boy that sits next to you no matter what, • Woojin is like your knight, • He doesn’t expect conversation, but sit next to you completely relaxed, always offering to be your partner, • He seems to pick up where you’re struggling, where your gaps are, and explains the topics with an efficiency that’s amazing, • He constantly smiles at you although it seems rare he does it to anyone else, • And you start to smile back and occasionally add comments or give him insiders secrets on all of your healing knowledge, • Then your sister fills you in on Park Woojin, although unaware you know him at all, • She tells you about how he’s part of the most popular friendship group in Hogwarts, how he’s close to 10 other boys but holds a distance to almost everyone else, 
• Just like Schutz wow,
• And that confuses you, but you nodded and smile as your sister gushes about Seongwoo, one of Woojins friends and a Chaser of Gryffindor, • And she talks about how she’s become a Slytherin chaser, and you have enough knowledge to know she’s dangerous on the field, • And it just so happens that the next day that’s exactly what Woojin is stressing to you about, • Because he just talks to you and you listen and add the odd comment, • “Seriously Y/N, one of our chasers has a sprained wrist and we have a competition against Slytherin next week, and your sister is a damn annoying thunderstorm we have no idea how to tackle,” • You look down at your notes as the words slip out of your mouth, • “I could fill in if you want,” • “Woojins eyes snap to you because??? This isn’t like you??? Has he finally broke your shell?? • "You can play? You think you can beat her?” • You take a deep breath before turning you head to face him with a smaller smile and roll your eyes, • “Of course I can, I’ve been playing with her since we where tiny. Woojin, I know a all her weak points,” • Woojin can’t help but wrap his arm around your shoulder and squeeze you tight, • Which makes butterflies flutter around your stomach, • Because with Woojin being a constant kind figure in your life, he always makes butterflies appear, • So he appears out of nowhere as you wonder around the castle avoiding your homeroom and drags you off to practice, • You’re greeted by a rowdy group of 6 who all suffocate you in hugs after they see you fly, and you finally get to know this Seongwoo, • It would be overwhelming but you love quidditch and the team seems welcoming, you get the sense they actually want yo there because they like you, but they also leave you to your own devices when you want to, • You just hope your team checks your colours and not just your face before throwing you the quaffle otherwise they could accidentally throw to your sister,
• But you still feel like an impostor on the team, as you’re not really a Gryffindor, • But you bear with it, • And then the day of the match comes and you feel like throwing up constantly but Woojin wraps a secure arm around your shoulders and doesn’t leave enough time for you to be nervous, • And when you walk into the pitch you can feel the shock of everyone around at seeing you, all eyes on you, • The team didn’t let anyone know that your where playing, keeping you a complete secret to shock the other team, • So the rest of the school is probably quite surprised to see the schools ghost walk into the pitch, Woojins reassuring arm wrapped around you, • “This is brave, Y/N, your a true Gryffindor, even if you’re a quite one,” • And that makes confidence spurt Through you because, yeah, maybe he’s right, • And when the Slytherin team walks on, they all look equally shook, • And you kinda love it, • And while your sister looks shook, a grin quickly spreads onto her face, knowing this wont be a walk in the park and relishing the idea of a Challenge and proud that you’d finally, finally, come out if your shell a little, • She sends you a wink and a thumbs up, but a smirk that promises a challenge, • And it is, • It’s like a private battle between the two of you, • Having spent a lot of spare time playing on your brooms with quidditch balls growing up,  as well with your parents whenever they had some spare time, you where an infamous pair currently unmatched in skill, • So the two of you keep each other busy, a whirlwind,  taking away each others powers, making the victor whoever had a stronger team minus the two of you, • *cough cough Gryffindor* • I’m sorry, • But the Slytherin’s had bet a lot of their money in your sister as their strong point and then you’d come along and ruined it, • But when the match ends with a Gryffindor win both you and your sister speed towards the ground, • She swallows you in a hug and it’s the rebirth of your sisterhood in a new fashion, • But after the match a lot of things change, • Because you’re forced out of your shadows and with your tiny bit of new confidence,you don’t mind as much, you’re happy to share your stories of Russia or Canada or Japan, • But Woojin still keeps you close, and you start eating with him and his friends, not alone, • And you learn that he keeps his distance from others because he’s also a little shy,
• And he never, not once gets you confused for your sister, which actually means a lot to you, • And sometimes your sister invites you over or you revise together and you get to know her friends as well, • You’re sat with Woojin one night, • It’s like insane time, everyone else is asleep so your alone in Gryffindor common room, sat facing each other on one of the sofas, • And your watching amazed because Schutz is Rolling all over Woojin and almost begging for ear scratches, • And your honestly feeling a little betrayed, • “He’s never like this with anyone but the two of us,” • Woojin just smiles all fluffy and heart melting and you lower your eyes back to your kneazle because you can’t keep his beautiful eye Contact, • “Woojin, why did you stick next to me? When I first came here?” • The question had been bothering you since you first came to Hogwarts and it seemed a question fitting to ask in the dead of night,

I saw a mutual fill out an oc ask meme, and I thought it’d be neat to do it with Knox. I’d do it with all of em, but these are a whole lot of hard questions, man, I’m not doing that.
1. What is one word to shut them up?
Any curse word, really. He has no patience for dealing with vulgar language. ALso maybe calling him unintelligent or stupid? But he may just actually try and prove he’s smart idf he’s actually knowledgeable about something.
2. What is the thing they feel the most guilty about?
There’s some people he used to keep in contact with but fell out of touch over the years. It wasn’t untill long after they passed that he found out they were gone. He’s guilty he stopped trying to keep in contact with them, especially one woman, who ended up creating Owen, actually. 
3. What is the worst pain they’ve ever experienced?
When the man who desined him, James, died.
4. Describe their worst nightmare.
Working his hardest towards a goal, sacrificing everything for it, only for something to happen and ruin all possibility of him ever achieving that goal.
5. List 3 fears; one “surface level” fear, one “repressed” fear, and one “deep dark” fear.
On the surface he’s afraid of swimming and the ocean, which stems from a subconscious fear of drowning. He’s also afraid of his closest friends dying suddenly, and experiencing the same pain as when James died, but he tries very hard not to think about this.
6. What is something that never fails to make them feel sick?
hmm I haven't thought much about this. I’ll have to come back to ya.
7. What feature (physical or otherwise) do they hate most about themselves?
Oh god, he hates that strand of hair on his head. but because of toon logic, whenever he tries to cut it it just grows back almost instantly. He’s also annoyed that he sounds exactly like mark iplieer, after kaylee points it out to him. It’s not that he doesn’t like the voice, it’s that mark has some pretty... colorful language in his videos, and doesn’t want to be associated to that.
8. Do they have anything that triggers them?
Strong language makes him pretty mad.
9. What is their greatest physical weakness?
He doesn’t have a lot of physical strength. he probably can barely lift a big thing of dog food on his own. He’s also a lot less loose and flexible than a toon from the rubberhose era typically is. He’s kinda stiff and subtle in his movements, which is mainly just how he is as a person, and he’s not incapable of being that way, but it doesn’t come naturally to him.
10. What is their greatest mental weakness?
Probably his intrusive thoughts. He’s also a lot less “wacky and zany” in personality than a toon from the rubberhose era usually is, and has a hard time grasping that mentality. Some people would probably consider that a weakness in him.
11. Do they have any vices?
He’s a bit of an alcoholic, and has suicidal thoughts.
12. Have they ever done something illegal? What was it? 
Uhm aside from maybe downloading music illegally, i doubt it.
13. Which of the 7 Deadly Sins best describes them? 
I’d say pride. He’s very proud of his accomplishments, and the things he knows and his talents. He’s not extremely narcissistic, but to some people he may seem that way.
14. Are they prone to outbursts (of violence, extreme emotion… exc… )?
I don't think so. He’s pretty even tempered, and would really only snap at you if he cares about you.
15. Who do they hate the most?
People who are very disrespectful of others.
16. Is there anyone who makes them feel inferior?
People who are more knowledgeable about a topic than he is, and people who are more talented than him.
17. What sound always gives them a headache?
...sounds can give people headaches? I didn’t know this, and I’d have to think about this.
18. Is there a certain flavor that disgusts them?
Uhm I’m not sure. He doesn’t like spicy food, but he doesn’t really think it’s disgusting, though. Maybe super bitter stuff? 
19. Do they consider themselves ugly?
Nan, he probably thinks he’s pretty handsome, actually. He might not brag about it, but he definitely likes the way he looks, aside from his one hair.
20. Do they consider themselves unloveable?
This one’s kinda tricky. He’s probably gotten love letters from women before when he was younger and more well-known, but he’s unsure about how attractive he’d be to a guy. He’s very uncertain about that, and he’s only recently started worrying about it because he’s only just now started accepting his own sexuality. He’s probably afraid that he is, but is hopeful that he’s not.
21. What is something that causes them great anxiety?
Being around pools and beaches, and really important meetings or auditions.
22. Do they have any mental illnesses?
He has undiagnosed depression, which he thinks is just laziness.
23. Have they ever been assaulted/abused/raped?
Fortunately no. 
24. Do they fear the possibility of being assaulted/abused/raped? 
I don’t think so. Maybe at one point, but definitely not now.
25. Have they ever been betrayed by someone they thought they could trust?
Maybe by Kay, kinda? He never exactly trusted her, and she didn’t betray him so much as ruin his one chance at a major acting gig. Other than that, i haven't thought of anything specifically.
26. Have they ever been seriously injured?
No, But it’s mainly because he’s a toon. They can handle a lot more physically than an human can, so if he was a human, some of the stunts he’s had to pull would have definitely killed him. 
27. How many times have they been in the hospital?
Probably not many. Again, toons heal surprisingly fast and efficiently on their own, and Knox doesn’t do a whole lot of stunts that would cause enough damage to him to send him to the hospital. (he’s not much of a stunt guy at all lol.)
28. Is there a certain type of person that disgusts them?
see 15. 
29. Does what they cannot see scare them?
I’m not sure exactly what this means? are ya asking if he’s afraid of the future? Kinda? he’s afraid of some things that are inevitable (like his friends dying in the future) and he’s nervous about not getting callbacks or anything, but no more than what people would normally be?
30. Have they ever been bullied?
Not until recently with Kay picking on him. 
31. Do they have self-confidence or self-image issues?
mmm no not really.
32. Do they have a bad relationship with their parents?
he don’t have parents. He had a good relationship with a lot of people that worked at the studio he was made in, though, as well as the mad that designed him.
33. Have they ever been in a relationship that didn’t work out so well? 
He tends not to hang around people he doesn’t like, unless he has to for his job. As for romantic relationships, I don’t think he ever really tried to date much. Maybe very early on in his life he tried to date a girl or two, and if he did it definitely didn’t work out, but probably in a “we should see other people” kind of way, and nothing especially negative.
34. Have they ever self harmed?
No, But he’s thought about it. Mainly when he’s cutting vegetables or something. 
35. If they could change one thing about themselves, what would it be?
I think he’s pretty content with who he is as a person. He probably wishes he could age. Other than that,.. maybe he’d like a college education, or at least a GED? He never had any need to get a formal education, and most people don’t ask if he ever did, so he can get away with it, but he likes learning things.
36. Are they in control of their emotions, or are their emotions in control of them?
I’d say he’s pretty good at controlling how he acts when he’s feeling certain emotions. 
37. Have they ever had their freedom taken away?
I don’t think so.
38. Have they ever been imprisoned?
No.
39. Have they ever been accused of something they didn’t do?
Not really? Kay does think he’s a pretty stuck up and snobby guy before she really gets to know him, but other than that, no.
40. Do they often blame themselves for other people’s problems?
Nah. What other people do is thier own business, not his. He may or may not be concerned depending on whether he knows the person or not, and what they got themselves into.
41. Do they get sick often?
Ha ya know what. I’d say yeah, kinda. Not like, all the time, but he probably gets sick a few times a year, like during flu season.
42. Are they comfortable with where they are in life?
He’s comfortable in the sense that he’s probably well off enough that he can keep doing minor acting jobs if he has to, but he’s ambitious enough to want more than that.
43. Do they wish that they could change their pasts?
He probably has a few things that he thinks about how they could have played out differently, but if you actually gave him the power to change it, he might be more hesitant to actually do it. He’s read enough sci fi novels to know the consequences of time travel.
44. What’s one thing they wish they could do more often, but can’t? 
Visit his friends, watch movies at the theatre, go to plays. Ice skate. A bunch of random things like that.
45. What is the emotion they most commonly experience? 
... I don’t know how to describe this emotion other than that emptiness that comes with depression. I can say it starts to become less common in his life after he starts hanging out with Carter and Kaylee and even Kay and Ken, and he starts having more good days than bad. 
46. Have they ever contemplated suicide?
Yes.
47. Have they ever gone so far as to attempt suicide?
He’s made preparations for it, the main one being buying a gun that he keeps in his room. He has a suicide note ready and everything. But no, he has never actually tried to kill himself.
48. Is there anyone that they would willingly kill? 
... I don’t know. I don’t think so, but I’m sure if he felt justified enough by it, he would. I have an Au where this is a definite yes, though, but he’s evil in that one.
49. If [name] was put into ______ situation, they’d rather die than live to see it through.
There’s some situations where he’d probably rather die, but I haven't thought much about what it would be.
50. Create your own!
Uhm I think i’ve answered enough of these already.

Walking
This post is an aside and not chronological. Already mentioned, I felt that walking was important. I didn’t realize that it would be, perhaps, the one thing that would define my relationship with Lexie. Obviously, more important are the emotional connections that created value in our walks together but, the act of walking is the manifestation of my life with my best friend.
On almost every walk, there could have been a story. From the scared, tiny puppy that I carried in my jacket to the old slow dog that became a fixture in our neighborhood, we walked. From her first days, I tried to get Lex to walk on the shoulder of the road or sidewalk. First, I thought it might provide a micro-distance of safety, but I thought it might be easier on her growing joints and bones. Pre-disposed to hip dysplasia, I tried everything I could think of to help my dog be as healthy as possible.
During a walk, when she was very young, I heard a shuffle as we walked down the sidewalk. My spidey-sense went off so I turned around and saw a pit bull running straight for my puppy. Reflexively, I yelled, “NO!” and, fortunately, he came to a skidding halt. I snatched up Lexie as the dog slowly walked back toward a house across the street.
In the same stretch of road, about a year later, I passed a house where a big, yellow lab barked at us, every day, while wagging his tail. This day, the owner was in the yard and walked up to talk. I complimented his dog for guarding the yard. He asked if I wanted him, joking-I assumed. I wanted to say yes. Clearly, I had become a different person from twelve months prior. I was able to say no but only because I didn’t have the means to take care of another dog. I asked him why and found out the prior owner had shot this kind, old boy in the face with a pistol. Only then, did the mark on his face make sense. This guy had ended up taking care of him. It was even harder to say no.
Some days, I would let Lexie off leash, inside a fenced baseball field. Often, she would find a squirrel to chase or I would run after her warning that I was “gonnagetthepuppy.” She almost seemed to smile when we played these games. I couldn’t stop smiling. One day, Lexie was about halfway across the field when she saw a lady walking her dog. Breaking into a sprint, Lex found a gap in the fence and rushed right up to the nose of the Rottweiller/Saint Bernard mix. As the owner yelled, “I can’t hold my dog!!” - she planted her feet and white-knuckled her leash with both hands. I was in a full sprint, watching the 180 pound dog “bow up” and my one year old, fifty pound, dog bounce spastically around him. I would never get there in time, if this dog chose to attack my dog. Fortunately, he determined this young dog was simply stupid, not dangerous. So, he stood his ground but never harmed the ignorant puppy or her more foolish owner as I grabbed Lexie by the collar to create some distance while apologizing to the big dog’s owner.
On some walks, down a bike path, through the woods, I used to hide from Lexie. Without fail, when she found out that I was no longer following, she always came back to find me. I had assumed she would just keep walking or break for freedom. Until one day, when she was about two years old, I hid behind a snow bank where I could see Lexie but she didn’t see me. I smiled as she stopped and scanned every direction. Then, I stopped smiling as I saw her face switch of inquisitive to panic. It literally made my heart hurt. I jumped up, calling her name, so she could see me. I never hid from her again. Somewhere behind that big stoic face, my dog seemed to actually like me.
In Fort Collins, we would walk by a collection of baseball fields. At certain times of the year, almost the entire outfield would be filled with geese. We would sneak up to the gate. Slowly, I would ease the gate open and release Lexie’s leash. I would whisper in her ear, “go.” She would sprint across the field as hundreds of geese exploded into flight. It was one of the very few times that Lexie barked and she would jump as the birds lifted off. She was never fast enough to threaten any of them or I would not have played this game.
Similar to our first camping trip, there were multiple rolling incidents in a variety of hideous substances. There were almost countless incidents of scent distractions that led to left behind pizza, or french fries, or something so small I couldn’t even see it. There were walks in the rain, in the snow, on ice, in the wind, in searing heat. There were walks in the middle of the night, middle of the day, during times that I was injured or sick. There were walks with threats of fights, both human and canine. There were numerous encounters, almost always friendly, with homeless people - many of whom looked forward to seeing the big, black dog. Once Lexie reached one year old, we walked twice daily instead of just mornings. During almost thirteen years, with the exception of when I was out of town, I can confidently say we didn’t miss more than 5-10 walks except for days when Lexie had an injury or illness, which was almost never. A few walks were shortened because I was in a bad mood or didn’t have sufficient time before work. Some walks turned into adventures. Some were miserable. But the vast majority, I wouldn’t trade - a simple activity that defined our days. Any time I said, “Lexie, wanna go for a walk?” - her ears would pop up. When she was young, she would jump up and run to the door. When she was older, it would take a bit longer to get up but she would head out for a walk, every time. It seriously impressed me. As years passed, I would become more and more amazed at my dog.
When Lexie was almost thirteen years old, we walked very slowly but her eyes were always bright and her nose sharp. One day, we ambled down a street toward our little apartment, a car slowed down. A woman who I’ve never seen, before or since, called out, “excuse me, I wanted to tell you that I see you walking your dog all the time and how impressed I am at your patience.” That same day, a friend was having to say goodbye to one of his dogs, who happened to be my second favorite dog in the world. A personel hero had passed away that day, at thirty-five years old. Lexie was hampered by an injured paw that we, unsuccessfully, had been trying to heal. So, emotionally, I was frayed. Having a stranger tell me that I had managed to do a good job, caring for my best friend, made me immediately tear up. As a result, I mumbled something like, “well, she’s always been a great dog” and spun around while walking away. I’m sure I looked like a fool but I didn’t want to break down in full blown tears, in front of someone. I knew Lexie was approaching our goodbye and it was obvious that knowledge was already beginning to beat me.
After I said goodbye to Lexie, I continued to walk because it was so hard-wired into my “normal” day. More than anything, walking is what I miss the most. In Heaven, there is almost nothing I look forward to as much as a long walk with my best friend.
Many of the following stories happened during our walks. Some were daily walks, some were hikes, but so many of my memories are melted to our walking together.
