got reminded that a specific event is coming up that's triggering for us but that we can't really avoid and on the one hand we're better at dealing with it than we used to be but on the other hand it is still a strong reminder of a bunch of abuse we experienced as a teenager

“I am…You know who I am”
[TWST AU]: What if MC/Yuu was an Iron Man fan and a genius engineer who created their own iron suit?
[Gender Neutral MC/Yuu]
[Synopsis]: In this timeline, MC/Yuu is this variant of Iron Man and they are titled as “Iron Force” in Twisted Wonderland.
[TW]: Some cursing
[(A/N)]: Hi everyone. It’s been quite some time since I posted TWST magic. I have been busy with IRL stuff and working on non-TWST ideas on my main blog (@swiftyangx12). I unexpectedly took a break from the fandom, but slowly getting back into business and honestly, I miss my boys...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[AC/DC - Back in Black]
youtube
Tumblr media
Alright, let’s see how this goes…
MC/Yuu was a huge fan of Iron Man and an aspiring genius engineer back in their home world.
After hearing about Stark’s sacrifice, they felt devastated that their idol passed on.
They coped by studying and building inventions, motivating themselves to honor their role model.
Then one day as they were walking to school in New York, something happened.
At first, they were exiting from their usual coffee shop and the next thing you know, they’re confined into darkness.
MC/Yuu: Alright. Not the weirdest thing since being dusted away for five years.
After feeling their surroundings to escape from their imprisonment, they heard somebody chatting about how heavy the door is to open up.
Then after blazing fire hued in blue, blew up the the door and this triggers MC/Yuu’s iron suit (with the latest nanotechnology) to encase them, activated to confront what was a danger to their safety.
When they’re revealed to Grim, he got scared. Because it’s not everyday to see someone in an iron suit and he just screamed as a reaction.
MC/Yuu holds out their hand ready to blast away whatever that creature was.
MC/Yuu: What the hell are you? A talking cat? Raccoon? A demonic alien from another dimension?
Grim: I’m neither of those! I am “The Great Grim”!
MC/Yuu: Who? Look, buddy. I think I got kidnapped and was somehow dragged here. I need to find my way out. *Activates their boosters and flies out of the room*
Grim: Hey wait! *Chases after them*
They basically flew out of the academy and toured around the whole world having to realize they’re not on their Earth anymore.
Then MC/Yuu return back to NRC, clumsily landed in during the Dorm Sorting Ceremony.
Every student was startled by a stranger in an iron suit.
Grim unceremoniously barged into the room.
Grim: You’ll never escape from The Great Grim!
MC/Yuu: Okay. *Holds their blaster up aiming at the menace*
Then Crowley came rushing in, putting a stop to the whole mess.
Crowley: Seize your fighting!
MC/Yuu: Uhh…Who are you? *Powering down their blaster and opens up their mask*
Crowley: I am Dire Crowley, Headmaster of Night Raven College.
MC/Yuu: …J.A.R.V.I.S., scan him.
Crowley: What-
After the chaos was settled, Crowley dragged MC/Yuu to his office for them to explain their dilemma. They also explained what they can offer for NRC with upgrades around the area.
Oh! Grim is still with MC/Yuu because after he listened to what they can do, he decided to be the greatest mage with technological advances.
Grim: MC/Yuu, who are you always talking to?
MC/Yuu: My A.I. assistant. They’re called J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0, “Just A Really Very Intelligent System, but as my own version.” He helps me hypothesize possible outcomes when testing my inventions, and assist fighting bad guys by my side.
J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0: I’m also their assistant for daily tasks and reminders. Grim, you and MC/Yuu are scheduled by Headmaster Crowley to pick up supplies for the upcoming NRC’s annual Magift Games at 7 p.m.
Grim: No way! I don’t wanna do chores.
MC/Yuu: You get to ride with me in my iron suit.
Grim: Oh yeah, I forgot. Let’s go!
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
MC/Yuu: What kind of power source I can use around this world? *Snaps their fingers* A Mage Stone. Crowley, by any chance, are there other magical crystals back in that Dwarf Mine?
Crowley: There are, but I mustn’t let you go there since it was closed due to a “monster” you fought last time.
MC/Yuu: Alright. I’m still getting that power source.
[5 hours later]
MC/Yuu: *Inserts the mage stone in their suit* There. My very own Arc Reactor.
Tumblr media
J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0: Congratulations, MC/Yuu. You discovered a new element.
MC/Yuu: Definitely. Sourced a new element as this is my first.
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Vil: MC/Yuu, explain this. *Shows them an online article*
MC/Yuu: *Reads the article* Oh yeah. I had an interview and became a philanthropist.
Vil: You’re basically a celebrity by this point. What did you do to become this well-known?
MC/Yuu: I just helped some people. Carrying thousands of construction materials, assist upcoming tech companies with my knowledge from my experience and gave children the best rides of their lives…Oh my god, I’m becoming like my idol. Except the rich and player parts.
Vil: You’re a celebrity, MC/Yuu. You would have plenty of Madol from all this exposure.
MC/Yuu: Okay, I’m becoming rich, but I can’t pull no bitches.
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
[During Chapter 2]
Iron Force: *Charges at Overblot!Leona and kicks him mid-air*
OB!Leona: *Knocked the wind out of his lungs*
Iron Force: Okay J.A.R.V.I.S., any chances?
J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0: 90% success rate of subduing the target.
Iron Force: Then 10% avoiding this mess. *Knocks him to the ground*
OB!Leona: Why that little- *Punched in the face*
Iron Force: *Repeatedly punching him* Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep!
Tumblr media
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
MC/Yuu: *Wearing glasses*
Azul: I didn’t know you wear glasses. Trying to appear as an intellectual?
MC/Yuu: Hm? Oh, no. My sight is fine. I just transferred J.A.R.V.I.S. in these modified frames.
J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0: Scan completed. You have a slight iron deficiency and recommend a salad in your diet, MC/Yuu.
Azul: Did it just talked?
J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0: Yes. I also scanned your physiology and it reveals you’re 95% suspicious of my existence and 5% envious of me for being MC/Yuu’s A.I. assistant.
Azul: I certainly do not envy your virtual assistant.
J.A.R.V.I.S. 2.0: Oddly enough, your biology categorized as relations of Cephalopod.
Azul: …
MC/Yuu: You’re an octopus?
Azul: May we change the subject?
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Iron Force: *Flying around the island*
Ortho: *Flying beside them* Hi MC/Yuu!
Iron Force: What the f-?! *Halts their flight and hovers with Ortho* I didn’t know somebody else created an iron suit in this world.
Ortho: Iron suit? Oh! You mean my structure. Nii-san helped with my upgrades.
Iron Force: You’re not wearing a suit? You’re an android with highly advanced artificial intelligence?
Ortho: Yes!
MC/Yuu: …Whose your brother?
[An hour later]
Idia: *Finishing a difficult level*
MC/Yuu: *Hacks into his door as it slides open* You didn’t tell me you’re a tech genius!
Idia: *Startled* AHH! Who let you in?!
MC/Yuu: I let myself in. Buddy, we need to collaborate-
[That’s how a friendship was made.]
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
[Imagine H.Y.D.R.A. somehow created a portal and enter into TWST]
Iron Force: Oh boy. Thank god I made spare suits. *Activates the other suits*
Tumblr media
Jack: You’re fighting alone?
Iron Force: Not alone. I made some for you guys to help everyone. *Closes their mask*
[The First Years enter into their respective suits.]
Ace: *In his suit* How do you work in this thing?
Iron Force: There’s an automated mode to help control your suit. You even get your own A.I. assistants I programmed in each of your suits.
J.E.R.K.: Hello, I am J.E.R.K. Your A.I. assistant, Mr. Trappola.
Ace: Really? Jerk?
Iron Force: The words behind the acronym are better.

So over the past few weeks, I’ve been toying with the idea of writing a retelling of the OG series from Annabeth’s perspective.
I’m interested in doing this because though I loved the PJO when I was a child, as I grow older, I find myself craving more nuance from the stories and the characters than what’s already there on the page. I thought hopefully the show would fulfill me, but uhh….amazing character depth is not one of the things I’d call the show’s biggest strong suits, at least not for Annabeth.
Now, I’m aware of the “Daughter of Wisdom” series on AO3, a fanfic series that does the exact same thing. I read that fic years ago and enjoyed it; I thought at the time that the fic was well done. However, I have a lot of ideas for scenes and details that I don’t think really showed up in that fic series, and so I find myself craving to create the POV for Annabeth and certain aspects of CHB that I’ve always wanted to see. I also wanted to spend more time emphasizing emotions and growth for Annabeth in a fic like this, and actually have her challenge and address her pride, sort of like a “I’m overcoming my biggest flaw” journey. I want to write this series from a sympathetic yet honest perspective about Annabeth’s life and her traits…including the traits that are not so pretty.
And so I want input from y’all on what you think would be worth including in a fic like this, and if there’s anything from the OG books that I should change, twist, replace, remove, deepen, or add something new. Here’s a list I already have going:
- emphasis on Annabeth’s relationship with Chiron and how it develops
- more emphasis on Annabeth’s relationship with Grover and how they get along when Percy isn’t there. Do they talk about Percy? And what do they think of each other? Does Grover feel intimidated by Annabeth, or feel like maybe she’s not proud of him because he let her down with the Cyclops incident and Thalia getting killed? Maybe at the end of the quest in TLT, before Percy gets back from Olympus, Annabeth reassures Grover that he’s a great protector and that she doesn’t resent him at all.
- Annabeth’s view of Luke and how/why it becomes complicated; how Annabeth reconciles the objectively bad things Luke has done with her desire for his redemption
- an emphasis on Annabeth and Thalia’s relationship after Thalia returns. How has it changed, Thalia remarking on Annabeth’s growth and teasing her about her crush on Percy, Annabeth helping Thalia cope with the loss of Luke to the “dark side” and also helping Thalia cope with how much the world has changed in 5 years and how Thalia now feels so out of place, Thalia helping Annabeth cope with continuous family struggles
- an emphasis on Annabeth’s relationship with other Athena children. Do they like each other? Hate each other? Are they competitive, all vying for their mom’s attention? Do they share some of Annabeth’s struggles; were their mortal parents also unimpressed about receiving a child they didn’t plan for?
- Annabeth’s relationship with other kids at camp: namely Clarisse, Silena, Beckendorf, and the Stoll Brothers (no, I don’t ship Connabeth, btw). But I also want to flesh out Katie Gardner and Pollux/Castor too.
- a proper resolution to Annabeth’s family drama that yes, recognizes how Frederick had a baby sprung on him that he didnt consent to, and how Mrs. Chase had no idea how to take care of a kid with special needs, but a resolution that also validates Annabeth’s feelings and highlights the ways in which Mr. and Mrs. Chase messed up and failed her with their poor choices.
- a new interpretation of Luke’s “did you love me”question
- An on-page apology from Annabeth to Rachel
- Annabeth’s relationship with her little brothers and how they might still try to love each other in context of their family drama, and not repeat the sins of their parents (breaking generational curses!)
- more emphasis on Annabeth and Athena’s relationship, and how Annabeth evolves from thinking her mother is this image of perfection, to realizing that Athena is just as faulty as the other gods and goddesses, and that Annabeth has a strength over Athena in that Annabeth has a bigger sense of humanity, and can change and adapt when she’s not doing something well. Annabeth can evolve in ways Athena cannot.
Anything else?

Character Jack Dawkins
Couple Jack X Reader
Rating Sad
Tumblr media
Requested: Can you make one where jack had been neglecting y/n. Or maybe they had an argument so they've been ignoring each other and jack started hanging out with belle (or other character) and y/n can see that belle has feeling for jack so she just felt heart broken and tried to disappear from the face of the earth (not die ofc, just you know. Didn't come out of the house or left from somewhere and didn't come out for a while to cope). Idk how you'll do it but uhh fix the relationship after? Maybe with a little bit of hard to get but yeah WAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH Angst to fluff😭🙏 i kinda wanna cry today cuz i haven't been processing my emotions like how a normal person should because it the normal way-,anygays so yeah ig. 🥲💕💕💕 Warnings: Cheating mentions/ arguing/ angsts
I had been sitting in this bed for what felt like a year, stuck up in this little room above the hospital listening to the chaos below. I had never intended to be here, I had a house of my own, but I seemed to always be here. At first, it was just visiting, every day once Jack finished his work I'd come up to his room to visit him, He'd tell me of his day and the business in the hospital, perhaps I'd make him dinner and we'd have a cuddle and perhaps more depending on his energy that evening. And I was so very happy, soon enough we were engaged and of course the sweetness and closeness that comes with it, Over time I visited more and more until I ended up as I was now practically living upstairs in his room. But the more time I spent here Ironicly the less I saw him.
It wasn't like that at first, when I was first here all day every day. The very moment Jack had five minutes he'd come up for a cuddle, a kiss and a cup of tea. But I had seen him less and less of these days. I know he's busy so I didn't want to complain, but I still missed him terribly. I missed just the joy of spending time together just cuddling and saying nothing at all for the pure love of being with one another. But now I saw him once a day, when he would come up to sleep, He'd barely give me more than a few grunts and an eye roll before he'd crawl into bed and sleep. Most days I didn't even get that as He'd come crawl into bed after I went to sleep and be gone before I was awake.
I had tried to go down into the hospital but I always got overwhelmed by the madness or just pushed away by the staff, but I know that's best I don't have any medical training or even knew only what Jack had told me second hand over time, so I wasn't any help and my body being wondering around was certainly a hindrance to the important work being done, and I wasn't even allowed to go into the theatre and watch the surgeries so I lived my life up in this little room.
But today, I had had enough. My mind had been racing all day curious of what he was up to, what he was doing, and who he was with, I found myself catastrophizing the worst of everything and I knew the only way to stop myself from doing so was to know. So I put on a nice dress, did my hair and went down into the hospital as usual people bustling about the place so I checked his ward but, he wasn't there. I checked the theatre but no that was empty too. I began to get worried looking around the hospital trying to see him but I couldn't find him. Luckily I spotted Hetty the head nurse.
"Ohh Do excuse me Hetty,"
"Yes, Miss Y/l/n?" She asked stopping with her bucket in hand,
"Do you happen to uhh know where Dr Dawkins is?" I asked,
"Jack's in the morgue Y/n."
"Ohh, thank you." I smiled, turned on my heels and headed down to the morgue, all being said I was excited to see him. But when I got down there I noticed he wasn't alone, and I don't just mean the body.
He stood over a body in the process of some sort of practice, with... a woman. She was beautiful, In a dress likely worth more than everything I owned, they both glanced up at me and she didn't seem interested, he however gave me a look, he knew me and how my mind worked, and he knew he was in trouble. Immediately he put space between them.
"I know, please don't and let me explain." He began,
"Too late," I answered,
"What's going on?" She asked,
He sighed and ran his hand through his hair, "Belle this is Y/n. Y/n this is Lady Belle Fox the governor's daughter."
"Right," She nodded, "And she's relevant becuase?"
"Becuase I'm his fiancé" I spoke up,
She laughed, "Really?"
"Yes." I snapped a little,
"You can't be serious?" She asked him, "Jack?"
"Jack?!" I asked him too,
"I did tell you I was... kinda engaged," he said sheepishly to her,
"Kinda!" I yelled,
"Engaged! No, you did not!" she complained,
"You never even mentioned me!"
"No, he didn't."
"We've been Engaged two and half years!"
"Well, you neglected to mention that."
I was so so enraged! and to be fair so was she, I'm sure to any outsider this would have been hilarious to have seen both Belle and I gang up on him, leaving him really without a side to choose or anywhere to turn. No matter what he did someone was gonna be mad at him.
"I uhh..."
"I'd choose your next words very carefully." She warned,
"Yeah, listen to the lady," I told him,
And his response, was that he simply just walked out. Refusing to deal with either of us. Leaving her and I alone.
"I am... So sorry Y/n, I had no idea."
"It's Alright Lady Belle,"
"If I'd have known I'd never have-"
"you didn't know I can't fault you for that," I reassured her, "Do you have feelings for him?" I asked even if it shredded my heart to ask, and she simply nodded, "That's all I need to know."
I left heading up to his room, but he wasn't there. So I grabbed a bag packed up everything of mine that was there, and I left.
I made the walk back to my little house, even if the weight of my items and the time since last making this trip it felt far longer than I remembered. I set my bag down and locked the door, my little house was dusty and cold but I slid down the door and began to cry my emotions overflowing as if a river had burst its banks, I cried for hours only interrupted by banging on the door and his voice.
"Y/n! Y/n! Y/n I know you're in there! open the door, Sweetheart!"
I didn't answer,
"Ughhh! Open it!"
I didn't answer,
"Uhhhhh for god sake! Open the bloody door!"
I didn't answer,
"I don't have time for this! Will you at least hear me out!"
I didn't answer,
"Ohh for - Fine!" He yelled and the banging stopped.
I made sure the door was locked and went to my bedroom, I lay on my bed and let my emotions flow, they took over me and I remained in this state all day, only broken by the next day at the same time, banging returned to my door.
"Y/n! Y/n sweetheart it's me! Just open the door."
I didn't answer,
"Y/n Open the door!"
I didn't answer,
"Open it Y/n for god sake!"
I didn't answer and after a while, his banging stopped.
But this continued, day after day, every day at the same time he would come and bang on my door shouting, pleading at me to open it. But I couldn't bear to do so. I barely ate. barely drank. Barely even moved. But I just sealed myself away trying to come to terms with it all. It had been a month and I knew the time and expected the usual pounding on my door but not today. Instead, I heard keys in a lock and footsteps down my hall. I forced myself up as they came to my door but I shut it and leaned against it unable to lock him out.
I heard him sigh and weigh against the other side of the door as he too slid down to the bottom of the door,
"You gonna listen to me now?"
"Get out of my house Jack."
"I will, I'll go. When you listen and not before."
"why are you here?"
"Same reason I've been here every day."
"I meant inside."
"Well... I figured we could chat in private, and if I'm inside you don't have much of a choice but to listen, and I'm not leaving till you do so, listen or not I'm staying."
"How'd you even get in?"
"I still have my spare key."
"I regret ever giving you that damn thing..."
"I don't know, it had its good uses."
"I don't have anything to say to you," I said, "I just want to be left alone..."
"I know you do," He sighed, "Strangely enough after three years of dating and two years of engagement I know you fairly well. I know this is your response when you are upset, you hide. You run and hide yourself away it's your response to stuff like this. You run and hide yourself in a corner and catastrophize yourself into a ball of fear, and tears and god knows what else..."
"I think this is a pretty good reason."
"I never said you weren't justified, Sweetheart." He said, "Not this time." He said, "Will you listen to me? Please."
"Fine." I sighed,
"Are you mad? or are you sad?"
"I was mad. Now I'm sad."
"Alright, I don't blame you... for being angry at me, I completely agree you should be angry at me, you should shout and scream and call me a bastard. I just don't want you to be upset."
"What do you care?"
"Becuase I don't want the woman I love to be upset with me."
"You don't love me..."
"I do. You think I'd come back, every day and bang on your door till my knuckles start bleeding for a month, If I didn't still love you."
I didn't have an answer so I didn't say anything,
"Yeah, I looked like a bloody nutter every day for a month." he chuckled, "I wouldn't have come back every day if I didn't."
"You could have gone to see her."
"I could. But I didn't I'm here with you, not with her." He said, "Besides she's mad at me."
"Can't imagine why."
"Ohh everyone's mad at me. You're mad at me, Belle's mad at me, Hetty's mad at me, Even Rotty at the pub is mad at me." he sighed, "I've managed to piss off every woman in port victory in one day."
"Well done."
"Thank you, I'm not proud of it."
"I take it you're doing the rounds then?"
"No. they can be mad at me I don't care, you're the only person I care about being mad at me."
"I am?"
"Well you and Hetty, but I care less Hetty is mad at me for emotional reasons its more... She's the head nurse. Have you ever tried doing surgery where your nurse is ignoring you, not talking to you, and actively wants you to fail, I don't care she's angry It's more just causing me logistical issues."
"Fair enough,"
"I don't care Belle's mad at me, she can be mad at me. I don't want you to be mad at me." He said, "You don't trust me do you..."
"It's a little hard to when you neglect to mention your engagement to a girl."
"I honestly forgot. It didn't cross my mind to mention it."
"So you don't think of me?"
"I think of you every day Y/n. I think of you as my wife so much I forget to even tell anyone else becuase to me it's just... so automatic I don't even think to tell people becuase I just know." He explained,
"Even if she liked you."
He chuckled, "How long did you like me before we started dating?"
"Two years..."
"Would think you'd have figured out I can't tell. The only time I know if a girl is interested in me is if she comes up, sits on my lap and says 'Hey wanna have sex with me' I'm a lot more oblivious to that sort of thing than you'd think I am." He chuckled, "Plus... I don't pay attention to whether other girls like me or not, I have you. So I don't really pay all that much attention."
"Why were you alone together?"
"She has this... germ theory we needed to cut a body open to check. She didn't know how I was teaching her,"
"Teaching her?"
"We didn't do anything I promise."
"And I'm supposed to just trust you."
"Yeah, If I'm going to be your husband... You have to trust me. and I know it's hard. and I know it hurts. and I know your mind and its catastrophizing make you always believe in disaster. But this is ever going to work, You have to trust me. Please"
For a moment I didn't know what to think,
I questioned whether or not to let my heart rule over my head, or my head rule over my heart,
But I got up and opened the door which surprised him as he had been leaning his back against it and was now lying on the floor looking up at me,
"Hi, Sweetheart."
"Hi, Jack."
"Are you... still angry at me?"
"Yes."
"Alright, but it's a start? right?"
"I will forgive you." I nodded,
"You will?" He asked getting to his feet, "I assume there's a but, or an if."
"There is an if."
"Which is?"
"You move in here, and we get married."
"And you'll forgive me?" He asked questionably,
"Yes,"
"... Okay," he nods slightly confused but clearly not going to argue,
"So you stay here, you come home at night, I always know if you're here or at work, and you wear a ring. That'll solve things." I said and I kissed his cheek as I went to the kitchen to make some tea, He soon followed and stood behind me a moment,
"You're sure?"
"Yes I am, That'll solve things, you live here you have to tell me where you go, I know when you're working or not, you sleep here with me, and you swear a ring, everyone knows you're taken. Besides... Two and a half jeans is a long time to keep a girl waiting about time we dealt with it, That agreeable with you?"
He wrapped his arms around me tightly and kissed my cheek hard, "That's a deal sweetheart."

Uhh 3 questions/asks (idk what to call it) in one ig??
1. What would happen if head empty Sheriff/Jimmy got out of Scott/Spectrums hypnosis when Spectrum/Scott wasn't around and looked around and found Xornoth? (I am very curious on this one bc like what would Sheriff/Jimmy think or do?-)
2. What if Scott/spectrum was out in his civilian look and a villain tried targeting him for some reason what would Scott/Spectrum do
3. Is there a certain reason why Scott/spectrum and xornoth don't get along?
1- Honestly Xor doent give two shits as long as his brother's "dolls" stay out of his room, but if they ran into each other? with sheriff clearly with his braincells?
"S-stay back"
"sure whatever. could you move a bit? i want to get a monster out the fridge."
"wha- oh! ... sorry?"
"you want one before you sprint out of here?"
"...you're not gonna stop me? you're not with-?"
"spectrum? fuck no i just live here. but he's got his guys out front just incase this happened. go out the back. what flavour do you want?"
xornoth doesnt give a shit. hes not gonna go out of his way to help, but its gonna mess with scott so its chill. also jimmy wouldn't recognise xornoth, its been a long time since jim dated scott and doesn't rlly remember his brother much
2- Honestly Scott would roll with it, he doesn't want to draw attention to himself as a civilian. and I mean he IS rich, so I could see ppl targeting him. hed just sit there and wait for a hero, he cant risk revealing he's spectrum, that's no fun!
3- i mean im sure theres some childhood trauma and how they coped differently with it or smth (like parents dying or smth I dunno) but in general they just. don't!! get along!! some siblings are just like that! they care enough if like,, either of them was gonna die or smth :) and they tolerate each other enough to live together, but that's about it

I don't think that many people realized what actually happened at the second therapy episode Sun had with Earth..
Sun was even more quiet than in the previous therapy episode. His responses were.. actually they weren't even full sentences.. He was just saying "I don't know" and "yeah" or "uhh" most of the time..
And whenever he was talking he tried to give Earth hints to how he actually feels.. he was silently asking for help.. but unfortunately Earth didn't pick on any of those hints..
Cause first thing that Sun said was that he feels stuck.. and I think that he meant that he feels like that in general.. he's just stuck his whole life.. as an evil one.. unable to change..
Later he said that he feels like he should feel more about Solar's death.. that hit too close to home ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ It's not that Sun wasn't upset about Solar's death but he feels like he doesn't feel as upset as he supposed.. He saw how much everyone was upset about Solar's death and he realized that his reaction just doesn't fit.. that maybe he wasn't actually upset..
It happened to me too many times.. I often felt that if I wasn't shooketh by bad and upsetting things.. that means that I just don't care.. which only fuelled my delusions more..
And later what Earth said sounded as if she was implying that maybe Sun didn't like Solar that much.. as if it was Sun that chose not to hang out with Solar and not the other way around.. this part upsetted me slightly :/
Sun saying that Solar's death just just happened so suddenly.. he wasn't prepared for it.. and later saying that Solar and Moon were doing things cause they were smarter than him.. confirms to me that Sun wasn't expecting that someone will die because Solar and Moon are smart so that shouldn't happen.. Sun wasn't involved this time and yet someone still died.. and like always it wasn't him even though he's the one who should've been dead..
And ofc Sun felt useless and bad that he can't do anything to help..
Later Sun brought up a topic of drinking.. and like always he said that he doesn't have any problem and that he doesn't drink that much.. and even if alcohol doesn't affect Sun that much.. how Earth reacted to this didn't sit right with me.. Why she completely dimissed that Sun most definitely is drinking as the way to cope.. like come on she can't be that dense?! But you know what he's drinking to relax! Which isn't a good reason to drink especially if you have mental disorder..
And she said that Sun seems the happiest now.. What?! Did you see Sun's reaction? That silence and "yeah" like.. it had to hurt him so badly.. like Earth, you can't be serious.. And when was talking about his dumb cat trying to get his head to a glass of wine.. he sounded like he covered his mouth.. as if he was embarrassed about something or maybe lying..
Also dumb cat trying to get to glass of wine seems weird.. especially if you realize that dumb cat is some sort of representation of Sun..
Before I went to the last thing that Sun told Earth, he like always said that he's worried about Moon.. because Moon is working non-stop.. hmmm.. Doesn't that sound familiar? And when Earth proposed that she'll help Sun talking with Moon.. Sun was awkwardly silent once again.. I bet that it reminded Sun of the last time Earth made them a family therapy.. We all know how poorly it went..
And Sun tried to redirect conversation onto talking about Earth's situation..
And he also said that he appreciates that everyone is there for him.. but he said that almost as if he felt bad about something.. maybe that he isn't as much helpful to others as they are to him?
And the last thing that Sun told Earth was that he wonders if it'd be better if he and Moon never separated.. which means that Sun thinks that it'd be better if he was dead.. that if he died at the beginning none of this.. these bad things would happen.. Sun hinted here that he's suicidal.. but Earth's response shows that Earth didn't pick on that something is wrong.. and Sun's reaction is so heartbreaking.. because you can feel how his "yeah" sounds defeated.. because he realized that no one will help him.. because no one sees how much he suffers..
Sun seems to be the most comfortable around Foxy. And that's why he so openly drinks wine in his presence.. and that's why he's swearing a lot, saying some awfully horny shit around him.. he can basically say anything around Foxy. And that's why he said those things to Foxy sounding as if he tried to flirt with him.. He feels like he can say and do any shit when he's Foxy because Foxy won't judge him cause they both very similar in their misery..
Sun seems to hang out with Foxy more than with others and he's doing it more as of recent because I think that he just tries to not think about anything. He just tries to be in the moment and I think that Foxy is able to give him that. That blissful "living in the moment"..
I often did the same.. and even more when my mental issues were getting worse. I was spending time on playing games and laughing at stupid shit with my sisters as an escape from my awful reality.. and I see that with Sun as well..
Unfortunately Foxy also doesn't see that there's something wrong with Sun.. I mean that he also doesn't see the hinted Sun gives..
Now Sun knows that he's completely alone with all of this.. he's alone with suicidal thoughts that plague him.. he's alone with his suffering.. Like Earth said to her and everyone else Sun seems the happiest now.. while Sun is dying inside without anyone realizing that..
That's why I'm 100% sure that Sun will try to kill himself.. I'm not sure though how he'll try to do it exactly.. hang himself, drown himself, jump off the roof.. or maybe something else..
I can only hope that someone will try to stop him.. or at least someone will find him on time..

Uhh i request you
<-forgot everything about creepypasta after stopping reading fanfics
Uhhhhhhh
Um
...slenderman uhhhhm meeting reader who is the same.. species? Found family????? Reader being chipper and welcoming?? Artistic and calming?? Basically um. I dunno. They also live in the woods and collect poor souls, helping them cope and detach from this world??????
I am.. stoopid.
Slenderman x slender-person!artistic!reader ! (found family)
dusts out my slenderman hcs as well as my au ideas on him aheehee ahoo speed running this since i just put my first round of macarons into the oven and im too impatient to wait until theyre done baking for me to write this NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT
Tumblr media
okay but im getting this idea out of the way before i forget. imagine the reader, instead of doing paintings and stuff for the "artist" thing they make little structures and statues and stuff and have them around in your area. of course theyre all made with forest material; mud, sticks, pinecones, ect ect i dont know, i just love the nature aesthetic with this idea and rrrraaaaaAAAAH
for some reason or another, you make your home in the same woods THE slenderman lives in; or perhaps it was the otherway around? regardless, it doesnt take long for you to become aware of one another....
okay but how funny would it be if you guys bonded over your annoyances over people collecting your stuff. people taking his pages, and people taking your art projects (at least the ones that are portable). like!
though i cannot think of any lore reasons for slendermans pages in my au.... i will one day i promise, i feel like thats too much of an iconic thing to just cut out
it DOES take a long while for slenderman to get used to you, much less foster a friendship with you... but a family bond? i mean yeah sure, hes very reclusive... but thats not just with humans. he doesnt like interacting with other creatures, either
pats your shoulder
my moot
my dear moot, allow me to go on a tangent about my take on slenderman
basic summary is that he and all other demon/most nonhuman creepypasta characters were made by zalgo in my funky au; basically to bring disorder and that kind of shit. but like in a "this is just a part of this universe's nature" way. thus making slenderman himself in my take the be a simple fact of life... thinks.. and he resents his own existence, i think. i mean how cruel is it that he was made to cause issues, in fact he cant live without it (eats people) but he was granted the ability to be able to grasp the complexity of morals and emotion. like thats fucked
i love it
anyways, theres that and him just naturally being reclusive! hell even his supposed "brothers" (splendor and trender, i refuse to touch the third one) hes still.. distant
basically what i mean to say is that you guys probably arent going to be.. outwardly close... if that makes sense. like hes not going to be very affectionate; so dont expect many familial... things... and its not often that he would seek conversation out... though
as i write that, if i recall correctly i did give him the vague craving of connection, and while i usually save that for traditional x reader stuff, i think this would still apply to found family stuff! so actually, i think he WOULD eventually start seeking your company out, just for the fact of having someone else to talk to who doesnt resent his existence the same way he resents his own
sits
given my silly hc i do think he would have some understanding with your relationship with humans/lost souls. would he do it himself? i think it really depends on the situation... like if hes not actively hunting he usually just drives people out of the woods, no sense in wasting.... things... you know?
sits
im all jumbled all over the place my apolocheese im just excited to write for slenderman again
will get annoyed if you snatch away his "meal" since AGAIN, he was cursed to feed on people . like he understands why you did it, and he has mixed feelings around eating human (like not in a "im distressed and i hate it" way more so "its not totally desirable but i cant survive without doing this" way)
sits
i think
im gonna toy around with my slenderman hcs... this ended up being more of a hc dump than a x reader, my apologies
its also that as im typing this i realize how similar my takes on eyeless jack and slenderman are... which is funny because they live in the same woods in my au but they fucking HATE each other
territorial stuff you know

Hey so excited to have another writer in the community! Welcome. Can I please request one in the same universe as the daniels little girl and Lando has just found out his girlfriend is pregnant and panics and runs to Dan for help. So excited to read x
Uncle Dandos been busy
It was Thursday at the track. Media day. The worst day for this to be on Lando’s mind. He had been avoiding Y/N all day and left her to explore the city while he headed to the track, with a promise to meet up with her later.
“Daniel! Daniel! DANIEL! DANIEL OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR OR IM BREAKING IT DOWN! please please please mate!” Lando shouts as he rattles his fist off of Daniel’s drivers room as soon as he arrived at the track. “Lando babe, baby ric is trynna sleep please stop shouting, Daniel is at the fan meet, where you should be too. What’s going on sweets?” Daniel’s fiancée answers the door with sympathetic eyes. She could sense the stress behind the young drivers eyes. “It’s okay. Just need Daniel, sorry about being loud.” he mutters and scurries away to find his teammate.
Lando spotted Daniel sitting at a table in hospitality a couple hours after the meet and greet and aimed straight for him. Tapping his teammates shoulder he slightly leaned down to take Dan out of his conversation “Please can I talk to you?” he asks softly. Daniel could almost feel how serious Lando was feeling. He was very confused. “Uhh yeah course give me two minutes I’ll meet you in your room?” He asks leaning his head back to look up at his friend. Lando nods and walks away quickly. Daniel looks back at his table and excuses hisself from the other members of the McLaren team.
“Buddy it’s me open up.” Lando was shaking. God please let Daniel be helpful. He was gonna need to text you back at some point. His initial reaction was probably enough to terrify you. Consider both members of the party terrified. Lando opened the door and let Daniel in, who took at seat on the small sofa and gestured for Lando to do the same. However, Lando ignored him and rubbed his hands over his face. “Ughhhh mate i’ve fucked up. I’ve fucked up so bad. And Max can’t help me, he doesn’t understand…so then i told him…but he didn’t tell me what..well basically… not basic but…” “LANDO” Daniel shouts to stop his pacing and rambling. “Please tell me what’s going on. Lando sinks down to the sofa next to Daniel. “Y/N is pregnant.”
“Oh buddy that’s amazing! Congrats! Aw baby ric is gonna be so happy to have a little cousin! Heyyyy this is so good!” Daniel exclaims pulling Lando into a hug. “I hope those are happy tears bud what’s going on here?” A hand spread across Landos back as he tries to hide the fact he’s rubbing his tears away. “I don’t know how to be a dad. You make it look so normal to have a kid in the paddock and juggle a family life. Me and Y/N still struggle with distance even nowadays and then you put a kid in that and I just don’t know how we will cope.” The tears continued to flow from Landos face as he commented “God this is so embarrassing sorry I just don’t know who to turn to who’s been in my position and you weren’t married when you had a baby when you were on the grid so i thought you might understand.” Lando looked at Daniel with hope in his eyes. “Lando mate you’re rambling. This is fucking amazing. You have no idea how mesmerising it is to hold your baby for the first time and see your partner go through so much pain just to bring you both so much joy. Put it this way, do you love Y/N?” Lando looked at the older guy like he’d grown a second head. “Ofcourse I do muppet I love her so freaking much.” Daniel smiled at love he could see in Landos eyes. “Then there is no need to be worried. All your doing is multiplying the love you two have. Plus if you leave her with this baby or don’t step up as a dad, I will quite literally never speak to you again.” Lando laughs and pushes Dan’s shoulder. “Leaving her was never an option I just don’t know how to talk to her about it.”
Just as Lando finished speaking there was a gentle knock at the door. “Lando babe sorry to interrupt, I know I’m early and I was gonna come later but Isa and Charlotte are here and we had food and drinks but anyway can I use your toilet?” Y/N peaked her head in. “I was gonna try stay away when they said you two were talking but you know my fear of public toilets.” Y/N giggled and made her way across the room to the attached toilets when Lando gestured her in.
Turning back to Daniel who had made his way to the door, Dan began to give his final words of wisdom. “She’s as much a rambler as you, good luck to that poor baby. They are lucky to have you as parents though. You’re a big kid yourself. Make sure she knows you want this baby and that it isn’t a burden. She didn’t do this alone and she can’t ever feel like she’s in it alone. You love her and you love the fact you have a family with her now. Constantly remind her.” He says with the door wedged open and him slowly sliding out.
Lando can here Daniel and his partner talking in the background. “Ever the romantic babe aren’t you. I love you” he heard daniels fiancée telling him. The sound of you coughing in his bathroom snaps him out of it and across the room. “Babe you okay?” he asks leaning on the door. The snap of the lock lets him know the door is open and he slowly peaks his head in and sees you hunched over the toilet bowl. “Aw baby you could’ve told me that’s why you came in here.” He says crouching down behind you and rubbing your back before adjusting the claw clip in your hair to keep it all off your face.
“I’m sorry” you softly whisper and tears stream down your face now instead of his. “I’m sorry I trapped you in this mess. I know your career is really important and this wasn’t in the plan but I can’t get rid of this baby. Not when I love you and them so much.” you sigh and slump back into his chest.
“Hey hey nooo no way would I ever even think about telling you to . This baby is gonna be so loved.” You smiled back at him softly, your eyes still glazed with tears. “We’re gonna have a baby.” You whisper to him like it’s the first time he’s found out all over again. “We’re gonna have the sweetest baby, darling” He replies pulling you back into him and remaining on the bathroom floor in a hug.

Hello :D hopefully I’ll do this right because it’s my first time eunfhrfhu (forgive me if I do it wrong ejnfjndebd)
For your little event: how about a medium bouquet with spider lilies wrapped with paper for/with Venti?
Out here tryna hurt myself /j congrats on 200 <3 and if ya can’t do this request that’s completely okay <3 hope you’re having fun at least <3 💐 you’re doing great <3 (also side note it doesn’t necessarily have to be paper, the uhh bullet points would be okay too, whatever you’re comfortable with <3)
hello dear ! thank you for your order, here is your bouquet:
☆ - venti angst | wc: 350 ♡ - mentions of excessive alcohol (wine), rejection | gn reader ♪ - note:: thank you for your request !! i hope you enjoy :D ★ - taglist -> @https-furina @ryuryuryuyurboat @imapencil @mccnstruck
• flower shop event post
Tumblr media
why?
he didn’t understand. how could you not feel the same? after finally finding the courage with some wine to help, venti sought you out and confessed. he was a god, an immortal being. yet, you made him feel so alive. so free, so happy. he was certain you reciprocated his feelings, the smiles you sent him, your soft laughter in the air like the elegant tune of his lyre.
the confusion he felt when you said those words… it was almost enough to make him forget the heartbreak he felt.
“i’m sorry… i don’t feel the same…”
it was just seven words. seven, like the archons. they fell, one by one. this would be his downfall, venti supposed.
you had turned away, taking his heart and walking all over it as you left. he faced your back, doing nothing to stop the tears that streamed down his face. venti never cried, not like this. he had no reason to. not when he could simply visit you to be cheered up so easily.
it was a twist of cruel fate that you were the one to break his heart. who will put it back together? who will dry venti’s tears? whose comfort will he seek when the winds blow harshly, on the verge of a storm on what was a calm spring day?
there was an unfortunate answer. one that had always been present, one that you’d try to fight against.
venti took heavy steps towards the door of angel’s share. for the first time, he had money to spend, having saved for months to afford any gift you’d like. with wine as the only way he knows how to cope with grief, he thinks of the bottles of the sweet liquid as a parting gift from you.
that night, he raised a toast to what could have been, all the while mourning the loss of his future with you. his thoughts got more incoherent as the wine quickly diminished; there was a question that ran through his mind regardless. just a simple question, nothing more than a word.
why?
Tumblr media
thank you for your order, please reblog if you enjoyed !

Your blog, fics and headcanons always cheer me up! Your art is so neat too. Ive been lurking around here for a bit when I feel like I need my crops watered. Question, can I get headcannon of mallek x reader where the reader is an artist? somehow was able to accept commissions while on Alternia? I feel like the vibe of them just silently drawing and him coding in the background is super cute. What do you think?
AUGRHGAA TYYY!!!! I'm glad you like the art, writing, and headcanons! I've also definitely had the thoughts of Mallek being with an s/o who works a lot on computers for digital art stuff, mainly cause it sounds peaceful af.
Okay, so! Artist is a pretty loose term that could apply to a lot of things, but you specify them drawing here, so I'll go over Mallek x reader, both of them being either a traditional artist or a digital artist.
Traditional Artist:
🎨Starting with the traditional artist! Dunno if any of you consider yourselves to be fairly clean but either way if you were to stay over at his hive a lot and for convenience's sake, leave some of your art stuff at his place..it only adds to the chaos that his hive, "damn girl you live like this?" Idk! I just imagine all sorts of physical stuff traditional artist's use. Different types of paint and paintbrushes, charcoal, watercolors, colored pencils, paper, canvases, etc. Your art stuff adds a whole other thing to look at in his hive and honestly? He's here for it. He thinks art is cool. I mean..he can do tattoos, so of course he'd have some appreciation for a s/o who does artsy stuff. He also like those moments where he finds you just covered in your art supplies. Charcoal all over your arms and even smudged on your face for when you couldn't fight a itch and scratched at it, your hands and fingers smudged with paint or oil pastels...he just finds it incredibly charming.
🎨Oh also on the subject of paint uhh. May or may not be something you're comfortable with using considering that paint on Alternia is made from the blood of trolls. Depends whether or not you can get over that and just pretend it isn't to cope lmao. If you can just. Don't ask Amisia and Chahut about how getting the supplies for your paint went!
🎨Mallek would find it incredibly relaxing to listen to while he's fucking around with his husktops and many monitors. Normally he's one to either sit in quiet with nothing to play or maybe he'll have his playlist quietly playing whatever music or other things to listen to while he works on projects or contact people. Not to say it isn't still quiet while you both do your own things, but that's just the thing. It's quiet, not silent. Mallek finds he works the best when he knows that there's life going on around him. The sounds of his hands rapidly typing on his keyboard, the whirring of his husktop, sometimes you can hear him speak to someone that he's calling. You just further add on with your sounds of living, the sound of pencil sketching onto paper or canvas, the louder or softer sounds of you using oil pastels or charcoal, papers being moved, the adjusting of a canvas. It's all very comfortable to you both.
🎨You're each other's background sounds.
Digital Artist:
🖋️Being a digital artist is also so cool to Mallek, why wouldn't it be? It's tech shit! He can also help you try and traverse the different Alternian art programs. It's pretty new to him too since all he usually uses is the Alternian equivalent to Microsoft paint..and it's not super serious, just doodles, sketches, and shitposts stuff to destress. You got yourself a husktop, Amisia was jumping at the chance to help you look for digital art supplies (such as a tablet and stuff), and Mallek helped you get a hold of art programs for you to try out and decide what you like to use as your primary programs.
🖋️They're pretty much the same as Earth art programs in terms of it's functions. Though of course their interfaces can be different from program to program. Not everything works as it does on Earth? Certain shortcuts or tool locations are moved around or changed but it's pretty easy to figure out if you're experienced in digital art. And if you're stuck or can't figure something out your cool tech savvy matesprit can help you out. Mallek has his moments where he takes a break from what he's working on briefly to watch you draw...he always has to stifle a laugh when he sees you're absolutely struggling over there to do line art, having to undo do your stroke like 50 times before you get it. Like the previous one? He thinks it's cute and charming.
🖋️While you don't add a lot of new things to look at it in his hive, as you're working with more tech, it's still just as nice to listen to in the background he thinks. He can hear your fingers type out messages to friends or clients you're working with, the sound of your pen stroking against the tablet face, your mouse clicking here and then. There may not be as many sounds, but he finds it just as comforting, he likes to listen to the life around him after all.
Commissions:
As for the commission portion, thought it would be fun to get into this separately after talking about the respective art types! Being commissioned as an alien on the planet is certainly. Interesting. Which can be taken positively or otherwise.
Being an alien is your selling point to a lot of trolls online. It's where you got a huge chunk of your followers! Sure, they're very split on genuinely believing you are a real alien and those who think this is some kind of roleplay account or something but follow out of interest. Your commissions gather more interest from those who want a drawing from an alien! Real or not. Lots of odd are fun interactions.
For a traditional artist you could go the route of just, scanning your picture and posting it onto your socials and tag the trolls (or post it to the troll client privately). If you offer a shipement of the physical original drawing Mallek can help you out with getting a drone to drop it off for you so you don't have to go on a wild goose chase to find the troll client in this great wide troll world.

can i request something inspired by where’s my love - syml? maybe bubbly reader developed something traumatic after the s4 events and just blocked everyone in her life and eddie’s worry sick that they might never be themselves again and starts helping them and all that hurt/comfort cutie patootie. luv your work!! 😭💛
oughoughhh i love this idea, thank you for the ask and kind words!!
(i’m so sorry it’s been well over a month anon thank you for being patient with me 🥲🫶🫶)
this one jumps around a bit but hopefully it’s concise 🥲
contains: cursing, use of she/her pronouns
page divider from @animatedglittergraphics-n-more
“Can’t you just… fuck, I don’t know… can’t you talk to her, Wheeler? I just…” Eddie takes a deep breath and breathes it out slow away from the receiver, closing his eyes and massaging the bridge of his nose with his free hand, tucking himself into the paneled wall of Wayne’s trailer. “I feel like — like she’s not here, even when she’s right next to me… like she’s a ghost.”
There’s a pause on the other end as Nancy listens, choosing her words carefully.
“Eddie… if you can’t get through to her, I don’t know that I would do any better. I’m sorry, but, you just — you have to give her time. We all just need, time. Think about what she saw in there. All of us nearly died. But… she saw you— ... I know you don’t remember it all, but she does.”
Eddie pinches his nose harder and grimaces, shaking his head a little. “…fuck…”
Nancy sighs softly, “yeah…”
Tumblr media
The first time Eddie becomes aware of your existence, he hears you before he sees you. From behind him, parked atop the picnic table hidden in the woods — his secret spot — he hears a delicate chime of bells; a soft giggle hidden behind shy hands. He turns quickly to spot the intruder, and when he sees you, he finds himself softening when he didn’t even realize how tense he was.
“I-I’m so sorry!” you call to him, lowering your hand to bask him in the shine of your smile, twiddling your fingers nervously together in front of your chest. “I didn’t know anyone would be here, I—“
“No no,” Eddie finds himself saying, turning more to you and raising a placating hand, waving away your apologies. “No ‘sorries,’ it’s all good. I’m just, uhh…”
“Hiding?” You finish for him with another gentle shimmer of a giggle. “Me, too.”
“Now who would you be hiding from?” There’s a lilt of playful tease in his voice. He himself was waiting for the parking lot to clear out after school, avoiding Jason and his goons and the general chaos of people wanting to book it home.
You roll eyes in exasperation, heaving your shoulders, “ugh, just… everyone. First day’s always the worst.”
“Everyone, excluding the freak?” Again there’s the gentle teasing, he says it softly like he’s worried you’ll suddenly realize who you’re talking to. Instead you raise a brow and peer around.
“ ‘The freak’?”
He smiles crookedly and opens his arms as if to say ‘you’re lookin’ at him.’
You smile softly and giggle again, disbelieving as you shake your head, moving in closer, “you don’t seem like a freak to me.”
Tumblr media
You’d taken to spending the majority of your time at the Munson’s; it was hard to be in your own home where no one understood. No one knew why you hardly spoke anymore, why you would start to cry unprovoked, why all you wanted to do was lie curled up in bed and yet refuse to let yourself fall asleep — headphones resting tight over your ears as your music played much too loud.
You felt guilty having Eddie care for you, but aside from your family not understanding, he did. He understood, and insisted upon having you stay with him and Wayne. It made him anxious to be away from you, worrying about your state of mind and the coping habits you’d developed that weren’t all that healthy. He worried intensely about that darkness that had taken over you.
While he recovered in the hospital, you were there every single day, and when he finished his healing at home you were there, too. Once he was better enough to move around, he was determined to pay back the attention you had devoted to him. He wanted to be there while you cried, while you were quiet, let you cling to him as you shivered. He figured eventually it would pass, as it had for him — soon you’d be better and you’d laugh together again. But the darkness proved heavy and insistent. Just as you clung to him, the darkness clung to you.
Today was rainy and gloomy; days like today only intensified your struggle, and you sought shelter in Eddie’s embrace. Even in his arms, though, even with his face tucked into your cheek and his gentle voice cooing to you that it was okay — the gloom within you was so bleak, you cried so hard into his shoulder you nearly screamed, your mind plagued with images you wish you could burn away with the hottest fire. Even while he held you you feared that looking up it would be another trick of the mind, another dream where his mouth oozed blood and his eyes were devoid of his spark. And so you just hid into him and cried, shuddering and hiccuping with every short, shallow breath.
“It’s okay… hey it’s okay… just breathe, sweetheart, breathe with me… I’ve got you… you’re okay… you gotta breathe, baby… I got you… you’re okay…”
Tumblr media
“PLEASE JUST BREATHE! Breathe, Eds, god-DAMMIT! PLEASE PLEASE — you’re okay you’re okay you’re okay — EDDIE PLEASE!!”
You can’t see past the tears, past the flashes of red, but you’re hitting him, hitting his chest, urging the air into him as you wail and then break to shake him hard, screaming into his face.
And then he gasps…
Tumblr media
Sometimes your silence scares him more than the tears. Sometimes one minute you’ll be inconsolable, and the next it’s like something in you has switched off, you’re awake but — you’re gone. Retreated to somewhere deep inside.
Your face is damp but slack, eyes open but not perceiving, not fixed, lids heavy; you’re looking past everything into a blackness no one else can see. Your tense muscles suddenly going lax and limp to the point you’re just slouched into Eddie, so motionless you could be comatose. When this first happened he panicked, but now he just sighs softly and tips your head back to check you over, gently patting your face dry and brushing hair away from your face, pressing light and concerned kisses to your forehead and cheeks and murmuring to you, hoping you still hear him. Carefully he helps you to your feet, holds you against him as he guides you to his room; you can move but your feet are almost too heavy, dragging against the floor.
Once in the cozy confines of his room, Eddie gently and very carefully helps you to lie down on his bed, placing a pillow under your head and between your knees, another against your chest before he maneuvers your arms to wrap around it. Your fingers flex gently, eyes still unfixed but you squeeze the material and pull it further against you.
All he can do for a few minutes is just sit at the edge of the bed and rest his face in his hands, keeping his breath even and calm — the sound of your cries still rings in his ears and just the thought of it makes him want to cry, too. But he also wants to stay strong for you; needs to stay strong for you. However long it took, Eddie wanted to see you through this storm. As dark as it got, Eddie knew he would see you come home to him again.
Looking to the corner of the room, he lays eyes on his acoustic guitar, proud in its stand.
This machine slays dragons.
He stands and moves to it, brings it with him as he sits on the floor leaning back against the bed. He hears you breathe softly behind him and closes his eyes, plucking with bare fingers and a tight throat that allows no more than a hummed melody; anything more and he’d break. He needed to be strong for you. He needed to see you come home.
Tumblr media
The picnic table had become a hideout for you just as had been for Eddie, a space you’d come to share with the boy (much to his happiness) when the days proved overwhelming — and most of them were. But you also looked forward to see him waiting there for you. As soon as you spotted each other you’d both grin and blush, hiding the unspoken feeling you unknowingly shared for each other; a deeply-rooted affection that only grew stronger with each meeting.
You’d split lunches from home, Eddie would rattle on about the D&D campaigns he was working on while you smiled wide and listened intently. Some days were worse than others, for either of you, however. Sometimes you’d find Eddie slouched into himself and tired, and you’d let him vent about Jason or teachers or whatever was bothering him. But as long as he could see you smile, he knew things would be alright. If you could smile for him, it meant the sun was right beside him.
Sometimes you’d find there Eddie with a guitar propped in his lap, after he’d been missing from school all day. Not up to being around them, but dying to be around you no matter how heavy the fog in his mind was.
The first time you’d found him with his guitar he didn’t speak at all as you approached, just smiled half-heartedly and patted the spot next to him for you to join. Together you’d sat in quiet for a while, as he absently plucked at strings, not wanting to speak but just needing some kind of gentle noise.
After a time, you asked him, “do you take requests?”
And Eddie smiled and looked at you past his hanging, curly hair, “whatever you wanna hear, sweetheart. Anything for you.”
Tumblr media
As he strums lightly now, sat on the floor, he feels gentle fingers comb into his hair from behind him, softly caressing his scalp. Eddie smiles wide and continues to play.
“…are you really here..?” Your voice is so quiet it’s just barely audible.
Eddie sets the guitar down, resting it against his nightstand, and turns, reaching up to take your hand, finding your other as well. He squeezes them gently and presses his lips to them, puffing soft breath against them and then kissing them sweetly, nuzzling into your knuckles as he nods.
“I’m here. I’m really here. Promise.”
He looks up to find your eyes, shimmering with tears over the edge of the pillow still tucked against your chest. You’re there, all there, present and seeing him.
“It’s gonna be okay. You’re gonna be okay.”
You close your eyes, pushing out heavy droplets.
It’s quiet for a while as Eddie just continues to hold your hands, watching you carefully. Eventually you nudge your chin up and tuck it over the pillow, and Eddie’s smile is brilliant in the presence of your own — small but it’s there.
“…do you take requests..?”
Eddie chuckles and sits up further on his knees, leaning in to kiss you, lingering against your lips and aligning his nose with yours, nudging into you with deep affection.
“Whatever you wanna hear, sweetheart. Anything for you.”

Necessary Evil, Chapter 5
Tumblr media
Note: Mention of suicide.
Sarah was still riding on a high of adrenaline as Sophie was last to confess, then she joined everyone in the crowd. She hugged Sarah tightly and they were both smiling extensively.
‘Weirdly exhilarating, isn’t it?’ Sophie laughed.
‘It sure is.’ Sarah nodded in agreement. ‘I’m glad you’re still here, even if at the time it didn’t feel like you wanted to be saved, I’m glad your friend found you in time.’ She said softly as she gave Sophie another hug.
‘Thanks… It feels good to have finally shared it, aside from my friend, no one else knew about the attempt. If my parents ever find out though, they’d be broken.’ Sophie sighed, it felt like a weight was off her shoulders. She had tried to commit suicide when she was fifteen, thankfully a friend found her in time and got her to the hospital.
There was two people that had decided not to do it. Molly was one of them, who even after seeing Sarah and the others confess, she still couldn’t do it. Sarah wasn’t sure where she disappeared to, along with another girl who, while she did confess, didn’t trust everyone enough to catch her when she fell. So, Loki wouldn’t allow her to join, for her untrust. Sarah just assumed they’d been chucked out of the building and didn’t give them another thought.
‘I was a little worried that I was over-sharing, a bit extreme.’ Sarah said sheepishly to Matt and Hanna after everyone was told to enjoy the party by Loki.
‘Not at all. I hit a dog by accident with my car a few years ago, I was in such a panic I just drove off and left it… I heard later that it passed away. I felt awful, but sharing with everyone here helped me to get over it.’ Hanna shared.
‘I had anger issues when I was younger, I was ashamed that I had beat up my then girlfriend. I did get therapy to help get through my anger, but I’m not ashamed anymore. Loki and everyone here forgave me, and it’s helped me to move on. Helped me to realise that I can’t help who I am, but I can work on bettering myself.’ Matt said.
‘Jen had a baby about four years ago, but couldn’t cope so abandoned the baby outside of a hospital. Casey posted nude pictures of her boyfriend online after a nasty breakup, causing him to lose his job… What I’m trying to say is, that we all have something we were ashamed of, but it’s ok because we are only human. We make mistakes, it’s what we do in the present and the future that counts. And being around the right people.’ Hanna said.
Sarah nodded, she was surprised hearing these stories, but felt really accepted and that she might just have found where she belongs. ‘I never thought I’d be able to share my story with anyone, but it just kind of felt… right.’
‘That’s how you know you’re meant to be here, with us. As one of the family.’ Loki had sneaked up behind her and put his hands on her shoulders, giving her a squeeze as he spoke, making her jump slightly but she relaxed when she realised who it was, though her heart did flutter a little from his closeness.
‘Is there anything you need us to do tonight, Loki?’ Matt asked him.
‘No, not at all. I just want everyone to enjoy themselves tonight, get to know our new family.’ Loki smiled as he moved to stand next to Sarah.
‘I’ll drink to that!’ Hanna cheered and held up her drink.
Loki chuckled and turned to Sarah. ‘I see your cup is empty, come on, let’s get you another drink.’ He motioned towards the bar.
Sarah went with Loki to get a drink, getting a funny look and a wink from Sophie as she walked away, Sarah just shook her head at her.
Loki began pouring Sarah a drink, he’d noticed what she was drinking earlier. When he handed the cup to her, he let his fingers brush lightly against hers, making her skin tingle.
‘I was impressed with the way you stepped up earlier to go first. Tell me, did you do it for Molly?’ Loki asked as he began pouring himself his own drink.
‘I uhh… yeah, I felt a little bad for her so thought if I went first, it would help her to see it was ok to do. I’m sorry if that was wrong, if I spoke out of term.’ Sarah said sheepishly.
‘No, no, not at all. I thought it was very brave and kind of you to do, helping out someone in need. I get the feeling, that’s the kind of person you are, someone that goes out of their way to help another?’
Sarah found her cheeks heating up, she wasn’t able to maintain eye contact with him, he was rather intense.
‘Thank you. Yeah, I guess I do like to help people when they need, if I can help, that is.’
‘That’s a good quality to have. However, I am guessing sometimes people take advantage of that?’ Loki asked knowingly.
‘It has happened sometimes. I try and avoid those people now.’ Sarah shrugged.
Loki nodded. ‘There’s a fine line between helping people and making sure they don’t take advantage. If you ever have any issues with anyone here doing that, please come and talk to me. I’d like to think that all of your brothers and sisters won’t do that, but if they do, let me know.’ Loki reached out and squeezed her upper arm.
‘Thank you. I will.’ Sarah smiled.
Andy and Maddie walked over to where Loki and Sarah were.
‘Welcome to the family.’ Andy said to Sarah with a smile.
‘Thank you. I’m glad to be here.’ Sarah grinned widely.
‘Setting fire to your school, must’ve been rather scary?’ Andy asked.
‘I don’t remember being scared, as such. I just remember being really angry. It wasn’t until afterwards that I started to feel guilty and ashamed for what I did.’
‘Ashamed no more, though.’ Loki assured her and she nodded in agreement.
‘Well, it’s not as bad as killing someone. I’m so glad to be over that shame.’ Maddie said in a stuck-up manner.
Loki raised his eyebrow at Maddie. ‘Assisting your terminally ill mother to die, under her own wishes, isn’t quite the same as killing someone in cold blood.’ He corrected her.
Maddie looked down and scratched the back of her head, then she shrugged. ‘Well, I still felt like a murderer for so long, until I found Loki. I owe him everything.’ She said giddily as she gazed up at Loki and fluttered her eyelashes.
Sarah noticed that Loki didn’t seem to take her on at all. He looked at Andy again instead. ‘Did you see Molly and Lisa out?’
‘Yeah, no need to worry about them.’ Andy nodded.
‘Good. Go enjoy the party, I’m just getting to know Sarah here a bit more. I’ll release her to everyone again soon enough.’ He grinned and winked at Sarah, making her cheeks heat up again.
Andy and Maddie looked a little put out, but they took Loki’s hint and wandered off, but not without a glare at Sarah from over Maddie’s shoulder.
‘Has anyone told you that you are adorable when you blush?’ Loki asked Sarah with a grin as he stroked her cheek with the back of his hand, making her cheeks turn as red as a tomato.
‘Uh… no… not until now.’ Sarah giggled after getting over the initial surprise of his comment, making Loki laugh.
‘Well, you most certainly are.’ He winked at her.
Sarah found herself incredibly flustered and Loki enjoyed how he was able to make her that way with just a little touch and a nice comment.
‘So, what was your shame? Have you shared with everyone else, too?’ Sarah asked curiously. Even though he was the leader, she still thought he should at least be doing the same as everyone else and sharing his past deeds.
‘I have indeed shared. I did a lot of bad things back home on Asgard, almost killed the King of Asgard, my father. I killed many people from my own true kind, betrayed them. I was incredibly jealous of my brother and did bad things to spite him. Finding you all here, has allowed me to share in my shame and see a way forward from it. It’s a step closer to my curse being broken.’
Sarah just stared at him for a moment, trying to process what he’d told her. It hadn’t exactly been what she was expecting to hear.
‘You still don’t believe that I’m a God, do you?’ Loki smirked and raised an eyebrow.
‘Well… no, not really. I’m sorry, it’s just kind of hard to believe without solid proof.’ Sarah said honestly, she felt a bit bad for not believing him. She hoped that it wouldn’t cause any trouble for her if she didn’t believe him, maybe she should’ve just kept quiet.
He gripped her chin gently and gazed into her eyes, making all of her insides melt, and her knees turned to jelly.
‘Don’t worry, darling. You’ll have proof soon enough.’

Uhh if you’re available, can you do the turtles’ s/o as a jiganshi (a Chinese zombie girl) and how they would react if she could fight?
Also I love ur fanfics omg❤️❤️
Hello! I did a little bit of research before writing this, if I have gotten anything wrong or if this offends anyone, please let me know so I can fix it! I did play up the supernatural aspect more, mainly the addition of super strength that most forms of zombies seem to have.
I wasn't sure which version you wanted, so I went with the Rise!Turtles, hope that's okay!
The Turtles with a Jiganshi s/o
Neon Leon
It's not every day you meet an undead person-
Much less end up with one as your s/o
Leo was admittedly shocked at first when he first met you
He ended up making jokes ofc- his go to coping method when something unexplainable happens.
"Pleased to eat you! Get it, cause you're a zombie!"
"...I actually don't eat people-"
"Oh-"
Slightly awkward first meeting aside,
You two ended up getting along great!
Sometimes you'd even help him with his zombie puns!
Since you sleep during the day,
You often end up spending time with Leo during his insomnia fueled late nights
You try to help him sleep, but when that fails, you two are happy spending time with each other.
Sometimes, he ends up having to wake you up during the day for various reasons
Enemy fights, watching a movie, pizza dinners-
Whatever the reason, he'd usually say;
"Hey, does waking you up count as raising the dead?"
Leo.
He has a point though...
Leo thinks that you're cool!
Though, he never expected that you could fight
Not that he doesn't think you aren't strong or anything-
It's just that, as a Jiganshi, your limbs are incredibly stiff.
He's seen you struggle to bend down to pick something up
And you literally have to hop everywhere because you can't bend your knees enough to walk.
So, when he saw you literally leap to his rescue, he was worried to say the least.
"Wait S/O don't-!"
Only- you're actually fighting these yokai with no problem???
While you may not be able to walk or run- your hops are incredibly strong
You're spinning with your arms straight out like some sort of zombie fan, smacking opponents away with surprisingly strong blows,
Leo's sitting there with his jaw hitting the floor
By the time you're finished smacking those yokai unconscious, Leo's barely gotten up
Who could blame him? He's in shock
"...So..."
"... you can weaponize the t-pose???"
Leo
He's not wrong though.
After his initial shock,
He's absolutely thrilled!
Not only can you fight, but the way you fight makes for a fun experience!
He definitely asks you to fight with them more often
Overall, you two end up having a blast!
Don Tron
Donnie couldn't believe his eyes when he met you
You are literally something from myths and fiction
A creature of science fiction even!
A living corpse!!
Of course, he had to speak to you-
And also ask some incredibly personal questions
"How is it that you're unable to walk, but can still hop?"
"Do you eat people and/or brains??"
"How did you reanimate???"
Donnie pls-
Q&A first meeting aside, you both end up bonding quite well!
You do answer any questions you can, and he does tone it down if it ever gets to be much
He's just excited!
As a Jiganshi, you're pretty nocturnal
Which works well with Donnie, as he usually stays up late building or just surfing the internet
When he found out that you usually sleep in a coffin, he was horrified
How could you sleep in something so uncomfortable??
He immediately built you a rather spacious coffin equipped with the softest sheets and pillows
It's like sleeping in a silky soft cloud!
Because you have to hop everywhere, and can't really lower your arms, he builds some mechanized leg and arm braces for you!
While it's still hard to actually bend your limbs, it does help a lot
Now you can actually walk!
It's still easier for you to hop everywhere though, but you appreciate the gesture and use the braces every now and then.
Like Leo, Donnie never really expected you to be able to fight.
It's not really something he ever really thought to think of- rightfully so
But one day, during a fight with the purple dragons- Donnie's tech had been turned against him
His brothers were still on their way, and Donnie was struggling against the onslaught of his own inventions.
Just when he thought he was about to be hit with his own weaponized drone-
You appeared from seemingly out of thin air-
Thankfully you had gone with him to receive a supposed 'Genius Award' (which ended up just being a trap set by the Purple Dragons)
You plummeted from the sky after leaping into the air, crashing down onto the drone-
It shattered
Donnie doesn't know whether to be impressed or devastated over the destruction of his beloved drone.
Until he realized you were quite literally fighting and smashing his battle made weapons with scarily ease
Effectively crumpling them like they were nothing but foil paper.
"OH MY BANANA PANCAKES!"
After the battle, and a few tears over the loss of his tech, Donnie was going a mile a minute
"How were you able to stop my tech so easily?"
"Due to always having to hop, have you somehow gained enough strength to leap that high?? Or is that a supernatural side effect???"
"Do you think you could possibly stop an oncoming vehicle-"
You may or may not end up fighting more often or getting roped into strength tests.
Mystic Mike
We all know Mikey is terrified of ghosts-
When he first met you, he had mistaken you for one
He may or may not have shattered nearby windows by shrieking
After clearing up the misunderstanding, and informing him that you were actually a Jiganshi, he's much calmer!
Though, at first, he's still a bit scared
"You won't try to uh- eat me- right?"
"Oh, don't worry, I don't eat people!"
Phew-
"I eat the qi (life force) of others!"
W h a t
After an existential crisis, and many, many reassurances that you wouldn't eat his qi (or his loved ones qi), you and Mikey get along well!
Mikey often hops along with you!
You both have challenges involving how high or far you can jump
Of course, you always win
Mikey does beat you during flips or harder parkour though.
Out of all the brothers, despite his fear of the paranormal, Mikey has no problems seeing you eat
He walked in on you once draining the life force out of a creature, and just smiled and asked;
"Hey, do you wanted to watch movies after you're done? I got the blankets and pillows ready :3"
Very supportive
When you first end up fighting in front of him, Mikey isn't actually surprised at the fact that you can fight
What surprises him is how well you can fight
He always knew you were strong, small instances of accidentally cracking the ground or chipping the wall never went unnoticed by him,
But you were surprisingly quick with your movements.
You're hopping around rapidly, confusing your opponent's then knocking them off balance
"Go S/O go!"
Mikey's cheering on the sidelines, watching you go
And of course, he's always there to watch your back just in case
Not that you need it often
But it's still nice to have him be there!
You two enjoy fighting together
Mikey often flings enemies towards you, which you knock aside or crash down on
The scariest part is that you two are usually smiling or laughing so sweetly with each other.
If this was an anime, would both have starry eyes and flowers surrounding y'all
Enemies sprint away
Big Red
Raph couldn't believe his eyes when he first saw you
You were just minding your own business, hopping along
The hopping might've been excused as something normal, maybe you just had a lot of energy
Or maybe you were doing some sort challenge
Y'know, something believable
But there was also the fact that you are a sentient zombie
Then again, Raph had seen stranger things in life.
After getting to know you, Raph fell hard.
If you ever get tired of having to hop around everywhere, Raph will gladly carry you!
Or if you have trouble reaching anything, he'll make sure to get it for you
Very kind and considerate
Not that he doesn't think you can do things on your own,
After all, he knows you're more than capable of handling your own
But it's nice to have help every now and then
And if it ever gets to be much, let him know!
He won't get offended and backs off
Just wants to make sure you're doing alright ^^
Being the big ol' worrywart that he is,
Raph is concerned about you being anywhere near a battle
Much less being in one.
He won't lie,
He never expected that you could fight so well
You have trouble grabbing snacks that are too high or low for you to reach
So how would you fare in a fast pace battle??
It was a huge shock for Raph when he first saw you fight
"Wait- S/O get outta of here! It aint safe!!"
Genuinely thought he wouldn't be able to reach you in time
You were about to be sent flying!
But you ended up sending the mutant flying instead???
Cue Raph staring, frozen, in shock
Turns out, you're more than capable of fighting
And damn can you fight!
You're dodging and weaving,
Getting mutants to accidentally hit themselves instead
Then hitting them with a powerful flying kick!
Raph's jaw drops as the mutant goes flying through a wall
After the fight, he profusely apologizes for thinking you couldn't fight
"I really hope I didn't offend ya! I swear that wasn't my intention-"
Very sweet and genuinely worried that he offended you
After that, he's never once doubted you couldn't hold your own
In fact,
You two often fight together!
You both end up causing a bit of property damage...
But you two are smiling at the end of the battle,
So, no worries about the rubble around y'all!
Tumblr media
Hello! I hope you enjoyed ^^
This was my first time writing about another cultures folklore creature that I wasn't super familiar with (ex: the kitsune), so I hope I did alright.
If I wrote anything wrong, please let me know! I did my best to include some of the details I read when researching the Jiganshi
Reblogs appreciated :3
