what do you think is tadc cast love language? 🤔
TADC cast and their love languages!
I actually answered a lot of these in the fluff alphabet (which I no longer take requests for <\3) so a lot of this is going to be regurgitated! Hope that's okay!
Tumblr media
CAINE:
Caine shows his love to you by absolutely showering you in gifts, as well as verbally spilling his guts out onto the floor to you. A lot. Not a day will go by where he doesnt say he loves you. Now recieving? Hes not sure, actually! Hes still figuring out what he wants, me thinks, especially since hes new to the love thing! I think he would like physical touch
POMNI:
Giving and receiving, Pomnis love language is quality time and words of affirmation. Which is even more important in this weird digital world you guys are both stuck in. You guys basically serves as one another's lovers, as well as a rock
JAX:
Giving, its teasing and pranks... but sometime these pranks are different than his usual ones... sometimes, at the end of the chaos theres a little gift left there. Nothing too big, like maybe a flower or some candy but
You know?
Bro is a sour patch kid/j
Recieving I think his thing would be physical touch... giving too, but his is more so a fake-clingy thing to keep you close... though.... hes never rejected handholding or hugs from you... hmm..
RAGATHA:
Gift giving for giving! Quality time for giving and recieving! Ragatha makes a lot of gifts, from flower crowns to hand sewn outfits/pillows/blankets/ect ! She loves spending the evening with you unwinding after an IHA, even sitting alone together in comfortable silence is enough for her
KINGER:
Giving and recieving he absolutely adores quality time! I mean hes lost before, and he wants to spend every second with you.. a lot of times he follows you around, too, keeping you in sight
Please reassure him, that can go a long way for him. Tell him that you love him and you're not going anywhere; abstraction or otherwise
Physical touch is a big thing for him too, also giving and recieving
ZOOBLE:
Zooble is a little interesting since I dont think they show that much affection, at least not in usual ways.. probably spends a lot of time with you.. which given that zooble tends to want to be alone and left alone... speaks volumes.. said it once and I'll say it again, you're the only one allowed in their room. You're also the first person allowed into their room. Take that as you will... recieving, I dont think zooble is too big on physical touch or gushing... simple "I love yous" is enough for them.. though.. when you randomly show that you remember an obscure fact about them or their interests, they get this.. look in their eyes.. like they light up, just a little bit
GANGLE:
Reassurance is gangles go to, in terms of recieving. She already has to deal with jax, and on top of that her shyness. I dont think she really. Thinks highly of herself. Please tell her shes worth every second
In terms of giving, gangles love language is gift giving. She makes you arts and crafts and all that for you

Little Charlie & Vaggie Hcs!
All are my opinions and not canon. if you don't agree, just don't say anything.
~ Charlie ~
-age range around 3-6
-Absolute angel and optimist. she always sees the positives in things. she's so caring and loving.
-Loves stuffed animals and rainbows
-Lucifer and Vaggie are her caregivers.
-Lucifer found out by walking in on her regressing one day but was insanely supportive and made her a bunch of bath toys (Mostly ducks).
-I feel like she would tell Vaggie instead of her walking in or accidentally finding out.
-energetic kiddo who loves to play. Lucifer made a playground in the back of the hotel once they rebuilt it just for her.
-Speaking of the hotel, theres one secret room in the hotel that is a playroom that also has a nursery. its full of toys and kids books and agere gear. the nursery thats attached to it has two beds with small bars on the side. perfect for toddlers or babies!
-wears mainly hoodies or overalls.
-sometimes wears diapers but only when she's feeling really really small.
-if she slips involuntarily really young, Vaggie will give her some of her padding to use.
-loves to do art's and crafts and will paint rainbows on everything.
-would rather have a deco Paci instead of a plain one
-Juice and candy are all that she'll eat.
~ Vaggie ~
-Regresses pretty small, 1-4
-Charlie is her main caregiver but Lucifer babysits every once in a while
-not very active and would rather draw and play with toys then do physical games.
-Owns a lot of onesies and fun animal hoodies.
-Has to wear diapers or pull-ups. she slips out whenever she uses the big kid bathroom and often has accidents when she's too busy while in smolspace or when she puts it off too long.
-Very embarrassed by her needs and will get extremely red if you mention it when she's big
-Charlie buys her cute designs for her diaps and always gives tummy kisses when shes changing her.
-Has a cute red teddy bear with black horns.
-sometimes, when she's really deep in headspace, she'll just roll around on the ground or stick her limbs in the air.
-her wings do their own thing when she's small so Charlie has to constantly chase her around when she's flying.
-likes plain pacifiers rather than deco ones.
-almost never has tantrums but has sensory meltdowns.
-her autism gets a lot worse when small so she's very stimmy but very easily overstimulated.
-lullabies help her calm down as well as rocking her.

HELLO! I was tagged in this "Get to Know me" thing. wazzup. thanks, @alyxtried
Last Song - Blood Upon the Snow- Hozier, Bear McCreary
The song fits some of my OCs super well, I keep putting that song on in the car and get really lost in it. It's one of those songs that if given the right time to sit and listen, will give me full body chills. today was one of those days!
Currently Watching - Star Wars Rebels (Season 2)
I can't shut up about Star Wars ever and because I am fun and love live My favorite animated series is Rebels. I wanted to show it to my roommate. Every time I re-watch it I notice more and more. I'm also watching Ashoka so It is nice to see the parallels. and GOD i love Hera Syndulla so much.
Tumblr media
Currently Reading - Burning Chrome- William Gibson
Reading is SUUUUPER hard for me for some reason, so I find myself picking up and putting books down often. I rarely get so engrossed in a book that I finish it, but that's why Burning Chrome works for me. it's a scify anthology/short story comp that I can pick up and put away whenever I want. the few books I strongly recommend are Piranesi and the Winternight Trilogy!
Current Obsession - (Still) Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Baldur's gate 3
before I go back on my Star Wars bullshit, I'm still playing BG3 with my beloved bard, Viv. I don't have as much free time as I did a while back but I still want to finish the story.
Favourite Colour - Red
it's been my favorite since I was a kid! I don't have a single explanation for it but it's always my favorite. I use it a lot in character design. I am also a fan of a good gold and black. the combo of red, dark navy and gold will always make me go insane. (in a good way)
Favourite Candy - Gummies
who has ONE favorite candy? what? I love gummies, hard candy, dark chocolate, anything with lemon- the more I think of it I don't think there's anything I actively dislike! except circus peanuts and candy corn but I think I'm allergic to them.
Favourite Game of All Time - Final Fantasy Crisis Core
I don't know who knows but I have a tattoo of the buster sword (Zacks OG CC version). it's on my left forearm. the tattoo artist I got was amazing, too. Crisis Core was extremely formative for me and had formulated some of the ideals I hold today.
Current Pets - Tadashi (gray longhair cat) and Acorn (Society Finch)
My boy tadashi was a shelter cat who probably would have died if I hadn't gotten him when I did. He came to me with a life threatening respiratory infection and ringworm, fleas, kennel rashes, etc. He's all fixed up now and living his best life as a spoiled, fat housecat. he's a bit standoffish to people, but really loves being with people. I also live with my sister's two cats, madeline and Olive.
Thanks for the tag, If someone wants to do it, go for it! I would love to hear about the vast beautiful worlds you got going on! (trying not to tag irl friends) Theres a lot of you active mutuals, so if I missed you and you wanna do it, I have spiritualy tagged you.
@magicalzombiegirl @ramroadrage @sternenhimmel-mond @thatoneperson1967 @astro-b-o-y-d @jesterrlavorre @phobosapollo @nionbell

NINA THE KILLER HEADCANONSSS
I love her so much she’s starting to become the main theme of my blog help
Anyways !! Hcs below the cut
She def has adhd and is very hyper
100% a scene kid
Loves strawberry flavored things (esp strawberry shortcake she LOVES THATTT)
Also loves sour candy like a LOT she will eat the sourest shit known to mankind with a straight face and ppl will just be like “HOW 😨”
Shes a good dancer too, took dance classes as a younger kid and always loved to practice in her free time.
She has a massive sticker collection in her room, it covers her drawers. Her room in general is super brightly colored and decorated, its so chaotic but in such an organized way that it works
Nina loves neon colors, like a LOT.
Has a bunch of glowsticks on her at all times as well. Not sure why herself, just likes lighting them up, always brings them to parties/events
Speaking of shes definitely a party girl, always the center of attention too 💀 she can get a bit out of hand though and has been the reason for the cops being called by neighbors at least 4 separate times
Has pretty bad insomnia, can’t sleep very well at all from how hyperactive she is. Sometimes when she lays in bed at night its genuinely painful for her to stay still, so she has like 3 weighted blankets on her bed all the time shhh idk wut u mean im totally not projecting not at all..
Tends to just say what’s on her mind at any point in time. No matter what the situation or setting she’ll just randomly blurt out shit. Doesn’t matter if its a sleepover or a damn funeral.
Shes a great friend but can be a bit overwhelming at times, Nina always wants to be around people she cares about all the time and will constantly be texting or randomly popping by. Shes the kinda friend to text you at 3 am saying she’s driving over to your house so you two can go out to eat (and theres no negotiation you ARE going whether you like it or not, she will quite literally drag you with her)
Soo uhm yeah im i love her shes the best live laugh love nina RAAAH

This is why fukuzawa never keeps anything sweet in his house
Except for his s/o ofc

When the kids knock on his house they low key get a fright when they see him cuz he looks pissed off 24/7
You have to open the door

Would kiddie Virge love Halloween as much as his canon counterpart? Or would he be more like that kid that doesn’t dress up and is like “I dressed up as myself”? If not Vee, are any of the kids kinda lackluster towards Halloween?
as much as it pains me i really feel like Virge would be kind of scared by Halloween because, well hes 3 years old and stuff like ghosts and creepy zombies and scary decorations are all over the neighborhood, and theres lots of people on the street and some of them have very scary costume and if he wants to get candy he has to talk to people he doesnt know..... He likes dressing up and he likes getting candy but everything else is a lil too much for the lil guy. At least for now. As he gets older he absolutely loves Halloween
the twins however LOVE Halloween. Think abt it, Roman loves dressing up and Remus loves scaring people, and they both love candy, AND they get to go out at night AND get to skip bedtime

Long Way To The Truth
Summary: once in Oregon,Lucas comes across an old friend.
Cw: hurt/confort, Lucas has a fear of needles,mentuons of human experimentation,lmk if I missed any.
♡Chapter 7: Oregon
Tumblr media
Light enters through the small Windows of the white van. Warm and nice sunlight that heats up his sleeping bag, it makes him turn to the side and let out a sigh deeply laced with comfort.
When was the last time he felt so...safe?
For a moment he thinks he can get away with sleeping in, like he can just relax and let life go by. His eyes flutter Open to see the small alarm clock hes got,fallen over probably by one of his one too Many movements while asleep.
Lifting it up,he checks the time, It reads "6:30" am. But he knows theres like a two hour difference,Between his home state and this one.
He simply retracts his hand and tucks it underneath his pillow, to then close his eyes to sleep just a few more hours. After the days hes been having, its better if he just allows himself a moment of the closest thing hes got to a domestic comfort. Itll help him in the long run anyway...
Its not always he decides to sleep a few hours in, with the sun in his hair and a soft breeze just pushing the clouds on the big blue Sky above. Wether he admits it or not,he Needed rest,a break from his hectic routine.
Lucas was exhausted, he just needed a moment for himself. He needs to feel like himself again. And Hes been so caught up in ,Well- Not dying or getting thrown in jail or a ditch, that his body is making the desicion for him.
His body feels like a piece of metal being pulled by the worlds strongest, biggest,magnet. His bones are made of lead and his nerves are just jumbled,tied up wires.
Who cares if he sleeps in? So whats one more day of travel? Its all the same to him,he figures he can wait,he can catch up on sleep and clear his head.
But by the time he wakes up,at 10:30 or so, he feels a lot better. A lot better.
Eventually he does get out of the sleeping bag, rubbing the tiredness out of his eyes with a loud yawn. He throws on his flannel and his boots- he reaches for one of his thermos since he could use a coffee right now.
Thankfully,the remaining water is enough for exactly one cup of coffee. He grabs a platic mug and simply whips up a quick breakfast.
--Please tell me I havent ran out of jerky--He mutters reaching out to one of his backpacks. He rummages though the contents,just the basic deodorant,change of underwear, toothbrush, a shirt-- Aha! Gotcha
He snatches a half empty bag of dry beef Jerky like finding it was a herculean task. And like a kid in a candy store he eats it, sat there on his sleeping bag like hes having breakfast in bed.
Lucas revels in the warmth of the van,provided by the sun that hits the metal roof above his head. Its just a nice,quiet morning.
When hes done, he makes his way to the drivers Seat and turns on the engine. It comes to life with a roar and he starts drumming on the steeringwheel as he pulls into the somewhat empty road infront of him.
Soon the radio accompanies his thoughts, god he loves music- The soft melodies and the quick paced,high energy rythm are enough to get him on a better mood.
As very tough as he liked to show himself to be,Lucas was a simple Man- When his neurotic brain decided to chill out that is.
Music was his escape,his comfort- Just like he had always had a thing for electronics, his first love was always going to be music. Maybe thats why he chose to be a radioman...
He reaches the town of Forlorn Hiraeth, being greeted with long pastures with farm animals, small houses of brick and some with Plaster. And as he drives into the town proper, he notices something...
The streets have a bit of fog, difusing the light from the sun, the roads are a bit cracked with greenery growing out of it- Dandelions and other weeds Sit there bathed in celestial warmth.
Around him the houses are a mix of modern 90s architecture with vestiges of old 60s homes, its a weird mix of appartments and family houses with porches,yards And even a small parking lot for a supermarket.
--Should re-stock on rations--He mutters to himself,pulling into the parking lot. It doesnt take him long to find a spot and leave the van.
With his eyes settling on the old supernarket,its quite wide and a little ornate with that midcentury modern style. The Windows are long,almost reaching the ceiling- It gives him a clear line of sight into the supermarket which hes thankful for. It eases his mind knowing he can see quite a lot of the inside.
Above him a long roof overhangs from the entrance, its really simple and honestly quite nostalgic- There used to be one supermaket like this in the town he grew up with. Then it was demolished And converted into an appartment building.
The Doors slide Open as he enters, he once again takes off his ballcap before even crossing the threshold.
He shouldve made a list-Too late now.
But its a bit disorienting sometimes, for some reason he keeps getting the aisles wrong- he confuses them with those that were in that old grocery store from his home.
--goddamn-- He whispers to himself, shaking off his thoughts and going to Grab a few canned goods that should last him about 2 weeks.
A few cans of peas,corns, beans(his favorite brand being Bush's Baked Beans), some chili and olives. And then he realizes he shouldve grabbed a cart and so he does that- He feels a little silly but he can allow himself this...dont gotta be perfect,right?
He goes to Grab a few bottles of water, some beef jerky and just as hes passing one of the aisles, he stops.
Before him he sees his younger self on an aisle that had alcohol on it, behind him is...Alphonso.
"Can I pleeeease have a beer?" A young Lucas asked the Man behind him.
"Dont be stupid,youre not 21 Years old"
"C'mon! Im going off to fight I think I derserve  a beer"
Alphonso sighed,nodding"Are you sure you dont want your first beer to be with your old Man?"
Lucas just shrugged"Whats tradition anyway?"
The older Man chuckled" Suit yourself,but if im getting your first beer,im taking you somewhere nice. Not store bought" he beamed at his friend who is jumping around like a spring chicken"its on me, of course"
--Young Man-- Says a woman behind him,elderly-- are you alright?
--Wha-?--He turns to see the old woman behind him,no taller than 5'4, olive skin filled with aging lines and wrinkles.
《I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar yet
I can't seem to place it》comes from the radio equipment installed in the palce ,the song played by Pearl Jam but its not like Lucas has enough mental clarity to notice.
Her brown,hooded eyes look at him concerned,her long black hair tied in a half bun.--you seem..out of it?
Lucas clears his throat--Hah, yes. Sorry- lost in thought -- he sees her blink at him for a moment--Why?
--Nothing you just reminded me of someone --She answered,waving it off--apologies
《Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me》
--ah dont worry- Truth is im not that busy--He replied-- thanks for the concern Ma'am
The womans eyes fall to his dogtags that are poking a bit from his flannel, but shes  quick to nodd back and excuse herself,walking away.
《All these changes taking place
I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me》
Lucas sighs,pushing away his thoughts. He better not linger just in case, he was taking his time but he wasnt going to catch a bullet for it.
Soon he gets everything he needs and goes to the check out,as he waits for the cashier to pass everything through the scanner he hears a conversation between another cashier and an elderly woman.
--Its good to see you again Ms.zhao--Says a younger Man.--How is everything?
--Lonely sometimes,With Dexter's anniversary coming up and all-- he recognizes the voice, its the same woman who spoke to him-- Im planning to visit the cementery soon
--Well ive heard the green house is going on a sale soon,perhaps you could get some flowers there?
Ms.Zhao sounded...happy at the idea--Oh, that'd be splendid. Thank you,Rex
Lucas turns to see the old woman leave,trying to get a glimpse at her bicep for something- But shes wearing a red cardigan. "Shit" he thinks before paying for his things.
He leaves soon after,looking for the woman he just saw exit the store. But nothing finds him...
The last name made something in his head rattle, and as he packs his groceries into his van, his mind wanders...
Why did he know that last name? Why did the woman looked at him with recognition- or something close to it.
It makes him even more confused when he realizes that he instictively went to check the old womans bicep- He was looking for a tattoo, a specific one.
"No,it cant be Jane- Jane isnt from Oregon, Shes from Colorado. Did- why would she move?" He thinks,sat there at the wheel of his van.
And then his stomach rumbles and he sighs. Yeah,no use in thinking with an empty stomach.
《Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away》 the radio plays as he drives to a Dinner,the only dinner in the small town.
Once there he does his usual, he parks and while looking at the entrance from his van he just thinks.  The only Jane he knew was Jane Zhao, a nurse from the camp he was stationed at- a woman in her 30s, Chinese-American, kind and sassy.
She gave him shit for being scared of needles, he remembers only knowing her through Alphonso though... she had lost someone too-Her best friend, something Sullivan. Jane was more of an acquaintance to him,tough hes sure Alphonso told her all about his protegé young mister Cole.
Alphonso could never shut up about how proud he was of Lucas. He was a Soccer dad through and through
The bell above him rings as he steps, the Sixties exterior with its Open Windows and large rooves clash with the soft pinks,baby blues and light yellows of the inside, with those large bars that appear in greaser movies and that "Golden Age" posters and decor.
He sits at the edge of the bar, ordering a simple meal to eat and just listening to the music coming from the TV.
With the previous experience a few days back, Being in this restaurant made him a bit on edge. Especially with the TV channel being tuned into MTV.
《I swear, I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
Me, you wouldn't recall for I'm not my former
It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf》
But thats not whats eating at his mind, he taps on the pristine surface of the bar.
"Even if that was Jane, theres no way- She wouldnt recognize me, its been fourty years almost...I changed...I think" he thinks,going to reach for his dogtags. One is his,the other is Wheelers
--Here you go,sir-- Says a waitress with the nametag "Iris".
--huh?-Oh,Thanks-- he answers, turning to look down at the Plate of food.
God,the whole ambience feels so nostalgic, he grew up in places that looked like this- but some things are off,not the same layout, or equipment...
But the cutlery, the shiny steel,the big plates...even the glasses...
Is...is he getting homesick?
Homesick for the past?
Lucas sighs a little annoyed, Last thing he needs is to dig himself deeper down into old memories. He eats,quietly wondering about  that old woman, was it Jane? If she was would she remember him?
《My God it's been so long
Never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are and here I am》
When hes done, still in silent contemplation, he simply waves over the same waitress that handed him the food.
--Yes,what is it?
--Im uh- not really from around 'ere--He answers, refusing to meet her eye out of awkwardness. A part of him felt stupid for asking this--Say- I met Ms.Zhao- she wasnt an army nurse was she?
--She was,actually-- Iris answered,a little puzzled--Why?
He blinks a few times--I think she worked in my platoon,do you have any idea where I can find her?
The waitress thinks for a moment, looking off into space for a few seconds. Long,eternal seconds...
--i think she visits San Myra's park at night--Iris answered.
Lucas breathes out a sigh of relief-- Thanks, heres uh- a tip. For the help -- he pays what he owes and leaves a few 10 dolar bills.
And before she can say anything, he gets up and leaves. He really cant talk to people...
So with all that in his mind,he goes to ask around for the park hes looking for. Its pretty much in the center of the town so off he drives there.
Its a long wait, he tries to occupy himself with cleaning out his guns, his radio equipment and going to walk around the neighboorhood against his better judgement.
That 50s/60s architecture cant stop haunting him, but its not quite spot on. Some things are off,the colors,the shapes of the rooves and the crash of modern 90s architecture.
He finds himself digging into old memories, the Games he used to play with his dogs, the robotics competition he used to partake in...
Memories of the few pleaseant times while deployed, inner Jokes with his buddies that made him Snicker to himself, dumb little anecdotes and fun Shenanigans.
In hindsight he does pity Alphonso, he had to wrangle a bunch of teenager and a few rowdy "adults" every single Day of his life. He wonders if he ever got stress white hairs from everything- But at least to his credit, he took things in stride And with a big grin and a sassy comeback.
God,he does miss his old pal.
As happy hour begins to push,he goes to a small bar for at least one drink,something to entretain himself.
He sits there at the counter with a few other folk that talk to themselves. Lucas is happy to nurse his beer alone, taking in that 60 and 70s decor that fill the place with life and character.
Theres even an old jukebox and he indulges in a little throw back. He goes up to it and slides a coin in,choosing the song "Aint no mountain high enough" By Marving Gaye and Tammi Terrel.
Within the old machine he can see cogs whirre up,parts move and slide into place. The vinyl, an actual vynil,being grabbed by this claw like thing and being put on a platform with a needle.
It settles into place with a small click and he returns to his spot to simply enjoy the music that starts pouring in.
He turns to his left side to see the other Converse,but instead he sees the side profile of Alphonso.
"I do wonder why you choose me over yer old man" Wheeler asked,half joking and the other half serious.
"Dont-dont worry about it" Answers a young Lucas with his black curly hair all short" Short hair sucks"
The older Man chuckled,the sound so hearty and genuine "I told you- dont be a cry baby about it- itll grow back"
"But my long hair Man! It gave me all my charm!"
Alphonso laughed loudly" Hah! Kid c'mon, theres more t'ya"
"Oh old one give me some of yer wisdom!" The younger Man teased,making a grand display with a wide grin.
"Wise? Yes, Old? Go fuck yerself" Wheeler answered, taking a long sip of his beer" Ya have a good heart,kiddo" the bottle is set on the counter with a soft knock,his eyes are set on the interior of the bottle,spinning it with his fingers "perseviring,Smart, brave. Kind, sweet..."
Lucas remains silent as he usually does when his unofficial dad talks. His eyes glued on the older Man, leaning in a little to hear him better.
"You care for everyone you come across, and hell yer fathers have the emotional awareness of a pea- And you are so much better than them" the older Man sighs" youre the best of all of us,dont forget that- Even when i-" he makes a pause,conteplating something before correcting himself  " when some of Us kick the bucket"
"You talk like yer not coming back" the younger Man chuckled,feeling a little unconfortable at the idea of his best buddy not returning.
"Just old Man ramblings,kid-" he refuses to meet his gaze, his brows furrowed with deep concern that goes unnoticed by his companio.
"Hah,you just said youre not old"
"Maybe I am just starting to lose it" Wheeler says with a quick smirk, he rises his beer" for a better future?"
Lucas grins" and to good Friends"
Their bottles clink and-
--You done with that one,buddy?--Says the barkeeper infront of him.
--Sorry- i yes-- Lucas hands the empty bottle and adds--How much do I owe you?
He pays and finds himself already at night, he walks back to San Myra's park and waits sitting on a bench in silence.Thumb tracing the name on one of his dogtags "Alphonso Wheeler"
Not soon after he sees Ms.Zhao walk past him,up to a statue of a young soldier being held by Saint Nicholas of Myra.
Lucas is quick to follow the old woman and when she looks to her side he asks--Ms.Zhao?
--Oh hey its you--She answers--Yes, its me- What are you doing he-
--I was told you were an army medic,for Vietnam--He starts,the words just coming out like waterfalls,like hes desperate,lost child trying to find an adult to rely on--You tended To Captain Alphonso Wheeler from Alpha Company, a few times actually- Im-
--Lucas--Zhao finishes with a surprised,If not bittersweet look on her face--Lucas Cole
His eyes widen,his heart fills with hope--Jane?
--Ill be damned--She breathes out.
Finally,Someone he knows that isnt dead.
--Well,shit-- he breathes out.
--Dont just stand there,you Crud muffin! Give me a hug--Jane pulls him into a tight embrace. He has to bend over to hug her back,he smiles and burrows his face on the crook of her neck.
Tears pick at the corner of his eyes,he squeezes her a little with a wide grin.
Around them the air is silent,mist creeping from the corners, the streets a little barren. Beside them the saint holds the young soldier,reuniting Him God in peace, with Grace.
--You havent changed a thing --She added,pulling Back with a smile-- Still tall and lanky, that wild black hair and that deer in headlights look!
Lucas feels his face darken--Hey! I grew out of deer in headlights look a long time ago
She snorts--Hah! You did,now you look like a wet cat now
--Hey!!--He yells, flustered.--You and Al' always found a way to make fun of me! Not fair
--Life aint fair,kiddo-- Jane chuckled-- Jesus, you got taller?
--Or maybe you just shrunk--He teased back.
Jane has the Audacity to look impressed-- Finally biting back? About damn time
Lucas groans with annoyance,holding his face in his hands-- Jesus christ!
The old woman cackles,hearty,boisterous,loud and so genuine-- its like im seeing my grandson! Ha--she leans on the display plaque that details the story of saint Nicholas of Myra--Speaking of kids,any of your own? A hot wife? Orrrr husband?
His face grows Darker with blush, suddenly very aware of his personal connections-- No- Not really- for neither. Not yet anyway
Jane raised a brow-- huh..!--He looks at her a little insulted at her disbelief-- Thought you'd have people making line at your door,after all Wheeler told me how full of yourself you were when you were a kid
--I- well- I was 19! Of course I was full of myself-- He said,leaning on the small metal fence that met at the sides of the display plaque.
--well you were really,really full of yourself. Like- a lot
--Okay,okay,Point made,Jane--He looks at the statue,the young soldier- barely in teenhood with dirt on his face and an innocent grin.
He hears the shuffling of cloth,then then a groan of annoyance--Ah shit,got a light?
Lucas turns to see Jane with a cigarette in her mouth--Those things Will kill you
The old woman rolls her eyes-- tell me something I dont know- Do you have a light yes or no?
A soft sigh leaves him and he grabs a lighter from his back pocket. He keeps to himself that the lighter used to belong to Wheeler and flips it Open, soon she lights up her cig And looks at the saint statue.
--i...I heard about Wheeler-- she said quietly,as if hoping he didnt hear.
But his eyes fall to the young soldier and sighs-- course ya did
--I know you suspected that there was foul play involved--She said,exhaling smoke--You were the talk of the ward...
--Because there was,Jane--Lucas replied--Thats why I'm here, im...chasing after this one lead..Its one hell of a long story
She nodds--persevering...just Like Wheeler told me you were-- She takes a drag from her cig--I'd call you bullheaded . Couldnt you just...take a plane?
He shrugs-- Cant pay me to board a plane.. not with those goverment spooks chasing me
--What did you get into,Lucas?--Jane asked,her tone akin to one of a scolding mother.
--Its a long story...
The older woman rubs her eyes,being mindful of her red eyeshadow-- Ill regret telling you this...but I was offered a position not a few days into the ward back at 'Nam, to monitor enemy soldiers exposed to a biochemical weapon...
He snaps his head to look at her--Agen-- He stops,looking around for a brief moment before returning his gaze to her-- Alpha Romeo . Why didnt you-
--I didnt know the symptoms...I refused. It was inhumane! I didnt want to be part of it. But then I was told of the state you were in, and I just...knew -- the older woman's eyes fall to the young soldier statue-- I didnt tell you because I thought itll help you leave it alone...that you'd convince yourself with a lie and...and leave in peace. I mean you were almost like Wheeler's son, and I guess I saw myself as an Aunt, I wanted a peaceful life for you, Kid-
--Dont- Dont call me that-- His voice sounds stern,angry. But it soon breaks down,shaky-- please...
She turns and coos,going to hugh him with one arm as he tries to hold back tears--its not your fault-
--How would you know?
Lucas wipes off his tears angrily, he feels like a child again,lost in that muddly jungle, disoriented...
Jane shakes off her cardigan, dropping it on the floor,she shows her tattoo on her bicep. Its a faded red heart with a cross, the name "Dexter Sullivan" written on it.
--My best friend got shot--She starts, not meeting the Mans gaze-- many times...Then, he was brought to the ward, I was on call and I tried to save his life- Keep pressure on the wounds, I ran to the bloodbank to get transfusions ready. Hell,we shared bloodtypes so I just went and gave him my blood until the doctors could get everything ready
The radioman turns to the older woman, with his eyes misty and red and feeling...Moved.
--When that didnt work, I tried to Stitch the wounds myself- But in the end...he died--Her voice cracks and now its her who has to fight the tears--I spent so,so Many years blaming myself, the doctors kept telling me we were overrun with wounded, that I just afforded him a few seconds of life,allowing him to see that I was trying so damn hard. He died knowing I cared for him
--Oh my god,Jane-
--When he died I was broken. I hated myself,i felt stupid,useless, so guilty--she says, anger in ver voice-- I wouldve wished death took me instead, but as I aged I realized... he died with me around,he died knowing he was cared for,loved...it wasnt my own malpraxis that Killed him- He was already on deaths door when he got there--She continues-- I was a nurse- a damn good one, but he was bleeding out. I did all I could...
--Alphonso- He died in my arms--He added, sniffing--Shot clean through the head by-- he coughs out a sob-- By me- we got sprayed by well- you know what... theres not a day where I dont regret calling for air support, where I wish I was taken and not him
--You werent in sound mind...
--I know-- he replied--But I pulled the trigger, im the reason hes dead...
Jane takes a drag from her cig and offers one to him--Cmon, I saw you smoke a few times
He rolled his eyes, grabbing one and lightning it up soon after- The bitter taste of nicotine in his mouth that soon fills with smoke as he inhales.
《When you were young and your heart
Was an open book
You used to say live and let live
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
(You know you did)》One of the nearby houses blooms witt music. Neither mind,its good to have something to drift their attention away from the pain.
--Im here to chase down these fuckers,im going to expose them all--Lucas growls with a vibrant,youthfull anger in his voice.-- Im going to avenge Wheeler and anyone who died at the hands of the chemical
--Putting the world on your shoulders...Hah,I know the feel -- her voice softens as he takes another drag of the cigarrette.
《But if this ever changin' world
In which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die》
--But Lucas...--Jane continues--Itll eat you alive. The grief- it never ends really,but you can do something about the guilt--She takes his free hand,squeezing it-- Even I havent fully forgiven myself for Dex, but anger and grief makes you bitter- And if youre going after them as hard as I know you Will, you need your mind clear
《What does it matter to ya
When you got a job to do you got to do it well
You got to give the other fella hell》
--I have a job to do,Jane. Itll get done, Even if I dont make it out
--Good lord,Lucas. Youre sounding just like Wheeler now--She says,exhasperated--But dont you want a happy ending? What Will you do when you get your victory?
Lucas sighs,feeling childish again. Jesus, he hasnt thought about it yet--I- I didnt mean to- Do I really sound so....
《You used to say live and let live
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
But if this ever changin' world
In which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die》
--Bitter?--She asks and He nodds-- Yes, you do. I have no doubt Wheeler knew of the chemicals, something seemed off with him
--Yeah...yeah he did sound off--He answers--He sounded so certain that he wouldnt come back, the day he took me out for my first beer-Right before deployment, He told me to never forget I was the best of our Group- Even when they kick the bucket. How wouldve he known?
--It was an army operation,and he was a damn good soldier
--Do you think...he got an offer?
--Most certainly--Jane agreed-- Knowing him he probably said no.
Lucas sighs with relief,messing witt his hair as his head hangs low at the mild scare he got from imagining his best friend working for Mayer, or its predecesor.
At least Wheeler was on the right side of history-- Probably yeah, i- God, this is so insidious
--Make Wheeler a favor,forgive yourself, Will you?--She says, patting his back-- He wouldnt hold it against you,ever. He loved you like a son, he wouldnt want you to suffer,and neither do I
He chuckles-- you know me a lot more than I know you
She smiles with that bittersweet look in her eyes--Yeah,he never shut up about you-You were the great Lucas Cole,promise of his platoon
Lucas snorts--He was big on hyping me up- All the damn time
Jane rolled her eyes--Oh he'd sing only praises about your aim,your kindnes...and all the dumb shit you did
He laughs loudly, taken by surprise. Its a warm,nostalgic laugh--Hah, im sure he did
Silence falls,the wind blows and the mist thickens. Between them they stand there,reunited.
Above them the Sky is starlit and clear, the music from that one house now a mere hum, the street is barren, and theres an air of privacy,of domesticity to this moment of sincerity.
The nurse figures its quite late now,she turns to the Man she sees as her surrogate Nephew and says--Need a place to stay?
--I can sleep in the van-
--Nonsense, itll fuck up your back--Its so weird to hear an old woman curse-- My son has left the nest a long time ago,my husband is well asleep- I can tell him tomorrow
He snorts-- youre too sweet-- he sighs and nodds,he could use a comfy bed--Fine, cmon ill drive you there
At Janes house,Lucas is guided to the barren bedroom of the place. The beds comfortable and warm, and with his heart and soul a little lighter, he can rest.
The house is quiet, the room is small and cozy-It has the outline of his old room back at his family home...it makes Him feel cozy,safe.
Next morning introductions are made,the ex soldier meets his host's husband, Jared Lawson. Both men get along quite well, specially when Jane tells her beloved who Lucas is.
Its nice to have people he sort of knows,he feels...welcomed,at home, and Jane is a great Cook so he gets not only a hearty breakfast but also some snacks for the road.
--You and Wheeler eat like damn starved hogs-- the nurse teased, seeing her guest inhale a Plate of Bacon and eggs.
Sheepishly,Lucas shrugs and keeps eating.
Just as hes ready to leave, his heart aunt stands there with her cream dress,her red cardigan and her crimson bandana holding her black hair in place. She unties it and her hair falls in beautiful Rolling waves.
--lean down ,Lieutenant
‐-Yes ma'am --He says,and leans to eye level. She Gently curls his hair into a bun and ties it with that red bandana.
--Red's a good luck color in China, now you carry a piece of me with you.
He chuckles,feeling his eyes get misty already--Ill come visit once everything is done, maybe ill even bring a hot wife and kids for you to meet
She laughs--You better, I want to be an aunt for Real
--Am I not enough Auntie Jane?--He teased like he was that shit head of a teen he used to be
--Hah! Asshole
They say goodbye with a good tight hug, and Lucas hops into his van and drives off. His spirits risen, his hopes high and his grin wide.
Its good to be reminded that youre not alone in things that feel like bigger than you. Just because his buddies are dead, it doesnt mean theyre gone
Jane is still there.
Wheeler lived on in his heart
Perhaps he can start the work in forgiving himself.
And as he watches the Rolling mountains of Oregon,the beautiful trees and Lakesthat frame the road he goes through, and under that blue skies
He decides to at least try to be Kinder to his mind and soul,and that young soldier that lives within him.

DAVE: the idea that he could eventually become that kind of person
DAVE: or even worse that he was somehow cosmically fated to become that person no matter what he wanted or did to prevent it
DAVE: thats prolly how he managed to off himself in the first place considering how the mechanics of god tier works
DAVE: maybe hed been struggling with that the whole time weve been here on earth c
DAVE: who knows with him
DAVE: he was always so inside his own head i cant even imagine what insane train of thought led him to decide that this was his only option
DAVE: but i dont think hed want us beating ourselves up about it
DAVE: or torturing ourselves trying to figure out what it fucking meant
DAVE: esp jake jane and roxy
DAVE: he loved you guys and wouldnt do anything to hurt you
DAVE: well not intentionally i mean
DAVE: anyway all that shit about my bro
DAVE: im over that
DAVE: like as much as you can get over it
DAVE: theres a subconscious response to certain stimuli you cant exactly rewire
DAVE: but the conscious part of my brain is all like
DAVE: shit dude
DAVE: i feel great
DAVE: wtf is hypervigilance??
DAVE: i love being alive and having all these friends who care about me and dont beat the shit out of me every day of my life
DAVE: etc
DAVE: and part of thats cause i got to be friends with dirk
DAVE: it was great getting to know this rad version of my childhood guardian who wasnt completely batshit insane
DAVE: and like just chill with him
DAVE: shoot the shit and freestyle or debate dumb crap without it being a federal fucking issue
DAVE: and more than that he treated me like i was on the level with him
DAVE: he let me give him shit for being a pretentious blowhard every day of his life
DAVE: which i did
DAVE: but despite that i
DAVE: i looked up to him
DAVE: the way i always felt like i should have been looking up to my bro
DAVE: the way i WANTED to look up to my bro but couldnt
DAVE: dirk taught me so much shit i didnt know i needed from him
DAVE: i mean picking up dirks opinions was unavoidable if you ever hung out with him considering he never shut his fucking mouth
DAVE: but im glad he didnt
DAVE: he taught me about combat
DAVE: philosophy
DAVE: life
DAVE: and im sure had he not killed himself the literal day i was finally gonna ask him romantic advice
DAVE: he wouldve taught me about love too
DAVE: so in the end
DAVE: i really got no idea how the fuck im supposed to feel right now
DAVE: but thats probably ok right
DAVE: like its ok
DAVE: to not know how to feel when someone dies
DAVE: its ok to not have all the answers
DAVE: i wish dirk were still alive so i could tell him that
DAVE: but hes not
DAVE: so
DAVE: i guess thats all i got to say about that
ROXY: anyone else have a eulogy theyd like to give
ROXY: i think the best way we can honor dirks memory at this point
ROXY: is to spew an untold number of words into the void
ROXY: as many as we fuckin can

GAMZEE: hOoOoOoOoOnK.
ROXY: (hey dude can u get up there and say somethin as like...)
ROXY: (a palate cleanser?)

ROXY: (he was your best bro! come on man surely u got somethin in ur heart to say)
JAKE: Oh... Okay.
ROXY: hay everybody its jakes turn!
ROXY: hes got a few words hed like to say about our dear departed buddy
JOHN: (oh for fuck’s sake.)
JOHN: uhh, hi guys!
DAVE: hey
KARKAT: I SEE THAT EVEN YOU COULDN’T BEAR GAMZEE’S ASININE, BRUTAL AND 100% NONCONSENSUAL ASSAULT ON YOUR LISTEN CRATERS, AND ALSO THE BASIC DECENCY WHICH SAPIENT BEINGS APPARENTLY OWE TO ONE ANOTHER ON THIS PLANET.
JOHN: no, um, actually i listened to the entire thing.
JOHN: i have no idea why i did that. now i have this whole memory in my head that i could have definitely lived without.
JOHN: i was just worried... because you didn’t come back.
JOHN: dave, are you ok?
DAVE: yeah
DAVE: well no
DAVE: but its ok to not be ok about this specific thing i think
DAVE: so for once i think im having like
DAVE: a totally unironically normal emotional reaction to a thing
DAVE: which loops around back to being ok
DAVE: in fact im probs the okayest ive ever been objectively
JOHN: are you SURE?
KARKAT: THAT WAS HALF A HUNDRED WORDS TO EXPRESS A THREE LETTER SENTIMENT.
KARKAT: I’D SAY HE’S DOING FINE.
JOHN: hmm.
JOHN: because i was thinking...
JOHN: do you... want me to go back?
DAVE: go
DAVE: back??
JOHN: with my retcon powers.
JOHN: i could go back and stop him.
DAVE: dude
KARKAT: JOHN!
JOHN: what!
KARKAT: DO YOU NOT HAVE AN INCH OF GODDAMN SENSE IN THAT THICK FUCKING SKULL OF YOURS?
JOHN: what!!!
DAVE: john
DAVE: come on what are my powers
JOHN: ummm... time travel?
DAVE: so you dont think i wouldve already done that if i thought it was a good idea
JOHN: well ok yeah, obviously.
JOHN: but if you DID do it we wouldn’t even know right now because it would’ve just made a new timeline where dirk didn’t kill himself. that’s how time travel works, right?
DAVE: ehhh well actually
JOHN: but!
JOHN: if i retcon it...
JOHN: then it’s like it never even happened!
JOHN: we wouldn’t have had this horrible funeral at all.
DAVE: i dunno dude thats
DAVE: a little fucked up actually
JOHN: you think so?
DAVE: yeah
DAVE: dirk was a complicated guy
DAVE: dude obviously had reasons for doing what he did
DAVE: if you go back and just rewrite his decision
DAVE: thats like denying him his personal autonomy
JOHN: huh. i... didn’t think about it that way.
JADE: dave!!! roxys wondering where you are
DAVE: oh yeah be right there
JADE: what about you karkat? you coming??
KARKAT: YES! GOD!
KARKAT: CAN’T A MAN STAND ON A MOIST AND DREARY PIECE OF RELIGIOUS PROPERTY TO HELP CONSOLE HIS MAIN BRO?!
KARKAT: JESUS FUCK, GOD FORBID WE UPSET THE CAREFULLY ORCHESTRATED FUNERAL PROGRAMMING WHICH JUST FEATURED A SEGMENT WHEREIN A DEEPLY UNPOPULAR CLOWN PISSED HIMSELF IN FRONT OF THE CLAMORING PAPARAZZI!
JADE: oh lord... you dumb baby
JADE: karkat it looks to ME like youre the one third wheeling dave and johns poignant brotimes
JADE: so why dont you get your butt on over here???
KARKAT: ARGH... FINE!
DAVE: john
DAVE: i get what you were trying to do
DAVE: but
DAVE: its ok dude
DAVE: im ok
JOHN: that’s weird...
JOHN: it was working just the other day.
ROXY: lmao john its just me

What are your classpect headcanons for the omega kids?
ooh ooh ok! so im goin off the theory that the omega kids will "fill in" all the classes and aspects we only have 2 canon players for atm (aka no other humans have them yet)
i talked abt this a bit in a server so im gonna copy over my ideas!! autistic ramblings below
the one that interests me the most atm is vrissy bc theres the assumption she'll b a standard serket and this a light player, but it would b cool to kill the theory that all descendants need have the same aspect. personally i would love for her to stay a thief but b mindbound instead. for a couple reasons
one hs^2 (or hsbc, or whatever) and especially the candy route is abt how the world and thr characters in it have deviated from The Canon and havin vrissy keep her ancestoral title but on the class side instead is like a fun way to show that. its like oh this is not how its supposed to work is it. two i think tyin her to terezi in a way is kinda interesting. bc there's some parallels that could b made (vriska searchin for a scourge sister replacement, vrissy's relationship w/ harry anderson as a mirror for terezi and john?) but it would have to b explored a bit more since she still hasn't been in the canon for very long
as for the others i rlly want tavvy to b rage… i have him as a sylph but im not married to that. i would rlly love to have a male sylph tho! i think his sensibilities could work nicely, and we already have some (if brief) content of him interactin w/ kanaya (https://homestuck2.com/story/336) so there's potential to strengthen their connections and parallels.
for rage like ofc the purple and gamzee shit and everything puts that in my mind automatically but also. as a contrast to his hope parent and his maid parent. bein a sylph of rage just creates such delicious symmetry. hard to see a sylph-y personality just yet but it's a possibility imo, n rage i think can b interpreted from the gamzee corpse shenanigans
harry anderson im unsure of but w/ what we have i suppose bard of doom could work ok. it would b nice to have a bard who wasnt um. Well. yknow. and show some other parts of the class that weren't represented in the 2 canon bards. there's the obvious connection and punnery involving his affinity for musical theater, and his laissez faire approach to life could serve bard functions.
doom… eh. yea idk abt that but i'll take a stab at it. on a thematic level if sollux's doom craft motif is coding, havin his be stitching is kind of cool. like the connection to binary code in thread (https://www.tumblr.com/swords-n-spindles/625244898586755072/the-fibre-stuff-moiraecrochet-synebluetoo) idk. but on a more conceptual level his upbringing could give him some connections to doom, living with roxy who for the longest time was entrenched in the jane propaganda machine (harry as anti-life?).
w/ yiffy left she takes mage of blood. mage kinda iffy since the canon mages r pretty different and only one gives us much to work w/. one thing i will say on mages tho is that both of them r missin a certain sense: sollux sees no evil, meulin hears no evil, and yiffy? well i'd say she doesn't rlly "talk", at least not yet in the traditional sense, so we can complete the proverb and have her as the third mage who speaks no evil
but blood is a lot clearer. blood, bonds, connections, relationships? thats like the whole conflict of her character. i think phrasin it as yiffy "knowing" blood is kind of fun. bc she probably does have a very keen understanding of the complex relationships between the ppl around her (jane and jake and gamzee im sure she knew much of). also the literal connection of blood to her fangs, and cementing the parallels of her and karkles as blood brothers (lol)

Hey! Weird question! How many “classic” ideas do you have for Steddie fics??? Just curious! 😝😉
Oh! Oh my god! What a completely unexpected and unprompted question that I am in no way fully prepared to answer!
I mean, sure I'll tell you if you INSIST. Tell me your favorite!
Classic fic trope ideas for Stranger Things all pulled from my Idea Folder in no particular order:
(below the cut because I have LOTS and this won't even be all of them)
"Powers Post Trauma" ie: Steve recovers from the demobat bites suspiciously fast, his hair is suspiciously fuller despite not having any additional product, he is suspiciously hungry and also suspiciously accidentally dents a wall when he pushes Eddie into it and kisses him for the first. Super suspicious. Super related to Upside Down venom-y type things, definitely leads to obligatory 'screaming while tearing something in half with muscles heaving' moments that are fully necessary to the plot and not just eye candy no matter what you think.
"Ghost in The Wall" trope in which Assumed Dead Person (Billy) isn't actually dead and is haunting Castle Harrington from the UD, falling in love with Steve from the other side up while Steve spirals convinced he's losing his mind. Ends with yanking Billy out of the UD and for definitely necessary plot reason, shared showers. Cos. Well, you know.
"My House Is Too Big So Stay With Me" trope where you guessed it, Steve's house is always empty and always too big so Eddie suggests 'maybe get a smaller place' Steve suggests 'maybe you come along too' and it has all the obligatory 'too many children in too small a space but it's cozy and homey and Steve isn't lonely anymore so its perfect actually' moments.
"Eddie Has Sweater Paws" I don't actually have a story for this it just needs to exist at some point.
"Coffee Shop AU" Modern AU where a Literally Always Tired Steve owns a coffee shop and Musician!Eddie shows up for highly caffeinated beverages and to flirt with Steve non stop. Also they adopt a kitten cos. Necessary Softness.
"Omegaverse with Alpha who knows they're mates and the Omega who is too stubborn to fall in love at first." which is just my "Risk in Kissing" AU cos it was supposed to be a one shot goddamnit but now I have like ten more chapters including but not limited to what happens when Steve goes into heat but won't let billy close, how Billy ends up picking fights with Neil just so he can get kicked out of the house and spend time with his Omega and copious sharing of jackets and Omega!nests because just-- ITS SOFT okay. And fangs. Nobody's surprised about the fangs.
"Polaroid" fic because goofy pictures together is NECESSARY. No particular pairing, could just be Robin and Steve being Local LGBT Solidarity pals and giving Steve pictures to hang in his empty fucking house.
"Road Trip Fic" so Steve can have his RV and maybe it's not Nancy and six kids (its not) but it's Eddie and an acoustic guitar and an exploration of 'hey maybe I'm not straight' and 'lets share the one queen sized bed and look at the stars' and 'home is where the heart is'
"Omegaverse Alpha holds himself away too afraid to damage an omega with his baggage and violence and Omega proves he absolutely doesn't need to be treated like glass."
"One partner runs away scared of the relationship, etc and other partner stays behind, never moves on until time jump later when they reconnect and finally let themselves fall in love."
"Pretty Boy wears skirt and Partner blue screens" Eddie wears skirt while playing the guitar. Theres a trip in the car where he HAS to sit on Steve's lap (mandatory) and Steve has a dick related crisis (mandatory)
"Hooking up in secret except literally everyone knows" and its Eddie who instigates and sends Steve careening down a horny spiral of 'oh shit I didn't know I liked to bottom'
Obligatory CHRISTMAS including mistletoe, flannel jammies and ugly sweaters.
Obligatory HALLOWEEN with a harvest festival and tunnel of spooky love and top of the ferris wheel kisses.
Concert Fic: because Steve needs to fall in love with Eddie while watching him play
Epistolary Fic: grieving character writes letters to not quite dead character trying to sort through feelings and emotions and Man Angst.
'First Kiss and They're Goofy and Stupid' like super lethal butterflies in the tummy they can't handle it, they're dumb
'Angry Cute' in which one is so cute the other one gets angry about it and shouts about bedhead and butterfly kisses and sleepy noises.
That's... most of them? The good ones anyway. I also have an additional like 5 pages of just one liners that should definitely lead to fics but right now are just blurbs of bullshit waiting to be turned into something interesting.

SHARE d20 THOUGHTS
bea you are so kind to me So kind. ok buckle in babes!
ranking d20 seasons by how compelled i feel to do a full scale rewrite picking apart and rearranging the bones
DISCLAIMER: this list is not in order of how much i like or dislike the seasons. i also recognize that in an improv format, especially comedy-focused, people make decisions that aren’t character or theme driven. none of the cast are Wrong for any of the choices i’m going to critique here. that’s just the name of the game. HOWEVER:
1. a starstruck odyssey
ah the reason i’m making this list. aso has SO MUCH POTENTIAL LIKE THERES SO MUCH GOOD STUFF IN THERE!!!!! i just think it failed to resolve its arcs satisfyingly. @cloudmancy and @grasslandgirl (EDIT: and @lichfucker ) have made GREAT posts on norman takamori which i encourage everyone to read and burn into their brains. but also like. the stuff with barry nyne drives me insane i hated that so much </3. why did prillbus choose him. how did the king of brain slugs get in a zoo exhibit. in the wise words of sav:
Tumblr media
AND THE ARC PLAYED SO WELL WITH SID! which, by the way, the warfare whitneys getting remade falls into the same thing of like oh ok. sid dealing with being a keeper of souls didn’t actually matter bc she’s not anymore.
there’s just this aspect of. the random factor was stressed so often and it was so cool and delightful whenever things happened to align and like. the way that it turned out oh norman and skip and barry and marge are all connected to this world ending plot in the end! just felt so against that theme bc it was very clear and obvious where the metahand of narrative was coming in. like it would have been way more engaging and impactful if the wurst really had just randomly stumbled onto saving the galaxy ESPECIALLY bc thats their whole thing! no chosen ones no saviors we are a bunch of idiot mercenaries here by accident!
also loose duke should not have been on the ship they rly beat that one to death early lol
2. misfits and magic
i love mismag with all my heart and soul but that does not mean she is safe from me !!!!! people have beaten to death the centralization of evan in the narrative so i don’t think i have to talk about that but i also think k’s arc could have been a lot smoother. i love the feral princess i think it’s like k taking this thing that’s always been pushed onto them that’s pushed onto them again (aggressive femininity, girlhood) and making it their own but i wish they’d had the time and the space to lean more into that whole thing of like. Taking magic and forming it into what I WANT it to be. Nature AND nurture AND intention bc thats the whole. that’s the season’s whole self determination thing. anyways more jammer more sam!!! would have loved to see more of jammer’s team building i want him to give everyone nicknames i want to see him struggle with his world becoming so much bigger and more complex. and seeing more of sam’s leadership and the way she goes from internet influencer to like irl influence like the scene w her teaching the kids how to mukbang was so good i want more of that. ALSO poly pilot program real
3. a crown of candy
every day i think about the world where we got those four lost episodes. i don’t think it would fix everything but like acoc NEEDS more time towards the end, you can tell something is missing. honestly it’s so perfectly done for the first half and then it just kind of… falls off a tiny bit? there are moments towards the end that are fantastic but i really don’t like how it resolved. i feel like everyone and their mother has talked about liam’s wish and how rough that was (my personal favorite replacement for that choice is for a peppermint tree to grow over the spot where keradin and the pontifex are buried as a representation of the strengthening of magic in candia which might be august’s idea?) but also idk i just feel like cumulous didn’t hit as hard for me. and saccharina is the love of my life literally one of my fave characters ever but her cinnamon arc felt really rushed (which, yes, missing episodes). i just feel like after jet’s death the pacing and themes get so muddy (yes missing episodes yes i know). anyways brennan wishes he had what prince consort calroy doc and sweet religion doc have
4. mice and murder
mice and murder is SOOOO CLOSEEEE but it trips over the finish line. honestly some of it was the dice being fickle but like. there were choices. anyways i said it best when it was airing:

also i wish vicar ian had more to do. he had some killer moments but he didn’t feel as connected as the rest of the group did yknow
5. pirates of leviathan, fantasy high seasons 1 and 2, the seven aka The Spyre Spot
this is the spot in the list where i run out of specific rewrite energy but they’re not quite in the Perfect tier. honestly pirol is so good SO slept on i literally just wish it had better video quality which is no ones fault. also i wish it were longer so they had more time to get their footing! and fantasy high is classic and very good but there are still some things i would change (fabian in the nightmare forest for one! i hate how he isn’t taken seriously, acknowledgement that penelope and dayne blade were also children groomed by an ancient dragon, i think kristen’s arcs are a little clumsily done, etc). the seven is also delightful and hilarious and its themes are done beautifully but i did not think the combat was done well lol. i think brennan got some bad asks and wasn’t hard enough on saying no, and while again there were some really good moments i think it dragged more than combat normally does but that’s #justmysillyopinion
6. the unsleeping city, escape from the bloodkeep
the perfect seasons. i would not change a single thing, they achieve everything they set out to do and they do it beautifully. and hilariously!
7. shriek week, tiny heist
i liked these seasons but i don’t think there’s enough there to really dig in yknow? like i enjoyed my time but i don’t feel compelled to rewatch
8. tuc2 my beloathed
i’m sorry i just don’t care for tuc2 i pretend she doesn’t exist 💔
@catoptrific and @theamazinggrayson also asked about this!!

my ideal wataru center event
dont like she/her wataru? dont read!
OK. SO.
wataru loooves movies. wataru frequents a movie rental shop, which isnt doing so well in terms of buisness. shes like the only frequent customer. this is of course due to the rise of streaming services, which wataru is quite opposed to, as a movie conissuer (expecially older movies).
the unbloomed is wataru walking out of the movie rental place, happy because shes got an idea for helping keep the shop open! she holds a bag of movies, and says hi to anzu, who wasnt going to stop by the rental shop, but wataru wants to introduce her to the owners so they go in together.
wataru is like "if a movie or tv show is exclusive to streaming services, which many are nowdays, theyre liable to just disappear one day. and disappearing is a fun trick, but not for movies!! movies shouldnt disappear - people put hard work into them, time, money, skill, and most of all, passion!"
anzu is like I Agree Wataru. and anzu rents a movie from her childhood that she hasnt been able to find on any streaming sites. wataru has a far off look on her face when anzu tells her this,
and then we are with fine, and wataru is talking with them about raising awareness about the decline of movie rental shops and the problem of streaming services getting rid of tv shows and movies, virtually erasing them and making it hard to find so many titles... its clear wataru is quite passionate about this, and eichi is all for it too.
fine visit the movie rental shop together, and wataru reveals she went here nearly every week when she was little, even when she didnt have any money to spend she loved looking through all the movies, helping others pick out what to rent, talking to the staff, and it brings her great nostalgia to think about. those were the good old days, before streaming services dominated the movie and tv world.
fine rent a couple movies, some from their childhoods and some theyve never watched before, and then they have a big watchparty with popcorn and snacks (eichis unbloomed he has an enormous pretzel 🥨 and for tori and yuzurus 3 stars unbloomed they have candy 🍬 and popcorn🍿)
watarus movie is one she recalls being her favorite as a kid, but it actually lowkey sucks. the plot makes no sense and parts of the set that shouldnt be visible are visible, a character that she loved as a kid seems really mean now, and no one is laughing at the jokes - because they just arent funny.
toris movie is spy kids. classic! we all loved spy kids!
yuzuru had specifically asked for the newest movie they had, and that was a boring and manufactured very long superhero movie that felt more like pumped out content for money than a work of cinematic art, which wataru was quick to point out.
eichi picked american psycho, to yuzurus dismay, and eichi is like Just jokingggg me and wataru are going to watch it together later tho. I Got Kimetsu No Yaiba Mugen Train!!!!!! and everyones like Yayyy!!!!
later, yuzuru and tori went back to their room, and eichi is taking about how his favorite show is the one wataru starred in as a child. it was mainly a magic show, but wataru also went to different places arround the world and met people who did a variety of impressive things and tried them out. acrobatics, sculpting, baking, soccer, go karting, even drag in one episode, wataru certainly did a lot! she also collected a new mask in nearly every episode. it started when wataru was arround six or seven, and ended when she started middle school.
wataru says she tries to only think about the fun parts of doing that show, but there was a lot of turmoil behind the scenes, and often she didnt want to do it at all. was she mistreated? well, probably. but we are all mistreated as children, no? wataru takes solace in the fact that eichi loved her show, and it brought smiles to him and many other children. theres nothing anyone can do to go back in time and fix child watarus life, so wataru doesnt dwell on it.
fine has been working on their new song, and they were going to do a simple mv, but wataru is like Lets Put More Amazing Into This!!! and it develops into a super flashy carnival themed video with a totally banger song, starring lots of birds, and fine, going arround and winning every carnival game and making carnival snacks for one another. it ends with everyone on a ferris wheel, joyous and united!
also eichi gives the movie rental shop a shit ton of money LOL problem solved
the outfits are like. rainbow and metallic and wataru has her hair in double braids tied with ribbons and everyone else has some sort of fun hat Ok Byeeeee i might remove the tags lol
