WIBTA if I didn’t let my friend bring their partner to social events?

We are all in our 30s and all trans/NB/queer. My friend (B) and I have known each other nearly 20 years, and over those years they’ve had a rough dating history. They’ve had several emotionally and mentally abusive or neglectful partners, further details about that I won’t give here. I’ve met most of them and they’ve always disliked me for various reasons (usually they were just jealous of the place I held in their life).

Recently though, B seems to have found someone who makes them happy (we’ll call them T) and T treats them better than their previous partners. Which is great! I’m happy for B. But I find T insufferable.

Granted, I don’t have to see T very often, but when I do its always uncomfortable.

The first time I met T they trauma dumped immediately. In the first half hour I knew all about their horrible family but couldn’t tell you any hobby or interest they had. We were in a very public place and I didn’t feel it was the most appropriate topic to get to know someone, but I tried to relate with my own stories all the same. However, T always had to “one up” every story I told. it felt like a “whose childhood was worse” competition.

The second time we all hung out T ignored me completely, really only hanging around and talking to B. Since it was B’s birthday I didn’t really mind at all. Plus, we were at a beercade so everyone was kinda off doing their own thing. But even when we all sat down they just kinda threw looks my way but didnt say a word to me.

But most recently I had hosted a halloween party (it was only 8 folks so tiny party) where B and T both showed up. When T asked me how work was going I started with what I felt was a normal “Ah yeah, it sucks but—” and before I could say anything else they spoke over me to say

“Yeah you’ve mentioned you hate your job every time I’ve seen you so thats sort of my only impression of you :/ ”

(a possibly important side note: B and T are both doing things that they enjoy but have to hustle a bit to make ends meet whereas I have a full time retail job through which i have insurance so leaving isnt as easy for me since I have more tied up in my job than just a paycheck)

This really pissed me off, as not only is being interrupted a huge pet peeve, but there are aspects of my job I enjoy. I just never got to talk about them because the conversation would either divert or we would just stop talking altogether. Also the way they came across felt pretty judgmental.

T then proceeded to spend the rest of the evening talking about everything from the movie to the snacks with therapy speak and trauma processing. (ex: I think I’m locked into this movie because it might’ve been a safe haven for me during my childhood and I just dont remember watching it but I can feel its importance to me) And only ever to B, never engaging with anyone else.

(another note: they are not the only one at the party with anxiety. two of my other friends have severe social anxiety and while maybe a little awkward were still able to hold casual conversations. no one was a stranger to anyone at the party)

This also meant that I didn’t get to spend any time with B during the party either, which was a shame cause I see them so rarely.

I understand that trauma processing is important and its great if you have someone in your life that can help you. It does not need to happen every where all the time. And I’m worried that B might be getting taken advantage of like they have in the past (in the sense that they have to do all the emotional legwork in the relationship and get very little of that effort back).

I’m tired of catering to this attitude and I don’t enjoy being around them, so I no longer want to involve them in group events I host.

would that make me an asshole?

What are these acronyms?

Also. This is your sign to introduce an OC. Here and now

hi ardate :] this is a bit late but, since i did it, i might as well introduce her now in this post

for my april fool's day joke, i did a little trick on the find everything discord server where i made a handful of screenshots showing a new (fake) character:

this is Myla Warper, a Whatsit Woods NPC

i don't have much on her at the moment, and i suspect a lot about her lore will become obsolete when 0.3 comes around, but essentially, she's an engineer and the inventor of the Warp, the in-game fast travel system. she spends a lot of time at home, but is getting out a little more, using the Warp and a range of mobility aids

she managed to trick a few folks (which, looking at how the first find everything hoax, wouldn't've been a hard thing to pull off) but, shortly after - though, in retrospect, it could've been left revealed until the end of the day, i revealed the prank with:

anyway, i'll put the fake screenshots under the cut and maybe post Myla concepts in a reblog :] + notes. there'll be notes. i've got notes

i don't remember when exactly i conceptualised Myla, but it might've been between when 0.2 was released and when the developers streamed their 0.2 launch stream a few days later. this is because i had this thought of Myla living in that old abandoned house, working away at her tech (in the early stages, Myla's outfit in my mind would be a the classic tanktop and half-worn jumpsuit where the top half was tied around her waist, you know the look), but obviously had to be just a fun scrapped idea when it was discussed on the stream that Old Man Majig lives there

still, Myla being hidden away in this corner of Whatsit Woods is reminiscent of that idea i guess. it is also just a very good spot for something you could've missed, especially since the community had been combing through save files looking for the second fun value, but it does sort of make her following dialogue a little strange as she's not near any Warp pads

this bit is meant to, like, mirror dialogue from "tutorial NPCs" who casually introduce new concepts to the player. having worked hard on drawing Illie last year for Halloween, i had her a lot in mind, with Illie also being a tutorial NPC. looked over her 5 lines of dialogue a lot to try and get the vibe down right (of course, she wasn't the only one, but she was the main one) .. i can wrap my head around the Find Everything art style, but writing stuff that matches the FE vibe got me stumped so i hope it didnt stand out all that much

originally, those first two lines where different and. stiffer for a long while ("I actually make a few Warp Drives myself!"/"Er… Let's not be humble, maybe more than a few. Maybe all of 'em."), but i think it worked out in the end. the very first bit of dialogue was also changed ("Hey there, blockling! Just on a walk.") to just be combined with the next line but i just really wanted to preserve that "blockling" here. i know it's just the species name of like. the Roblox character, but it also reads as a little endearing term to me

ahh, the reason why i sort of thought up Myla in the first place. see, a big contention in the find everything community is Whatsit Woods being the only major area in the game without a Warp Drive, despite there already being Warp pads by its entrances in two neighbouring areas. the lack of a Whatsit Woods Warp is very likely to be changed with the 0.3 map rework, but i always thought this (and the Construction Zone Warp.. ) discourse was stupid. Myla going "No. Why? I live here." is like. cathartic to me.(??)

but regardless, she and Watcher Macallit are kind of ocs born from asking "why is this the way it is?" why is there no Whatsit Warp Drive? what makes a Thing a Thing? just ocs to play with and sort of expand worldbuilding, and i love doing this

#long post #<- I'M NOT LYING #find everything #fe roblox #askberg #ardate #textberg #artberg #my ocs #myla warper #mspaint is an awesome program #ask art #was going to write more. but that might just be another post about how to make a convincing fe screenshot #if i ever get around to it. or still care enough to do it gdfgf #edit: wow! photosets don't work under cut .. didn't know that. this sucks!

Yang has trouble finding a non-sexy halloween costume that fits

(I might have to continue this one later)

Yang sighed as she glanced at her reflection, disappointed on how much cleavage the costume showed. It was the same way every year since Signal, and she was tired of it. Costumes that were more modest never fit right, costumes that fit always showed off more skin than she preferred, and none of the costumes ever fit right, always too tight somewhere. She pulled off the witch’s gown she had tried on and started to get dressed again. “At least I didnt have to spend money on it this time.”

Blake knocked on the dressing room door. “You find anything that works yet?”

“Not yet,” Yang answered as she put the costume back into its package and opened the door once she was dressed. “Just another “slutty” costume.”

“I thought you had always enjoyed wearing that kind of stuff. You didnt have a problem dressing in a tight, red dress last year.”

Yang shrugged. “Its different when dressing up as one of my favorite characters. Besides, this year, I want to do something different.”

Blake gently took the package from Yang. “And you think a witch is different?”

“No, but its what I could’ve done with it. Take the robe and turn it into something else. Dye it, color it, cut it apart and resew it with another costume.”

“Then what’s stopping you now?”

“Because I need something quick and easy for Ruby’s birthday party.” Yang walked back over to the costume racks and started to look through them again. “Every year for her birthday, we like to dress up and watch movies. This year, I want to do something special since this is the first in five years that she hasnt been on a mission on her birthday. And I want to bring it all back to our roots. Just being dorks and watching a few slasher flicks.”

Blake nodded and started to search through with Yang, pulling a few costume packages for herself to try on. “I guess I see why you’re stressing over this.”

Yang pulled a couple other costumes, immediately putting them back once she saw the word “slutty” on them as advertisement. She let out a heavy sigh and finally pulled away from the costume racks. “Guess its time to check the next place.”

“Why not grab a couple costumes and adjust them as needed?”

“If I had more time, I would.” Yang pulled out her scroll and started to flip through her calendar. “Ruby’s birthday is in five days. I need to find a costume, find a projector, figure out a cake for her, send invites to the rest of our friends, find a way to keep Ozpin occupied so he doesnt send her on a mission last minute, make sure I have party supplies, and I still need to organize where we’re actually going to hold this since dad told us we werent allowed to use the side of his place again after a mishap with his flower garden.”

“Let Weiss and I handle some of this,” Blake said as she made her way to the fitting room. “Weiss can take care of the venue and I can take care of the cake and Ozpin.”

“The last time I let Weiss handle anything, we ended up in a place all of us were out of place for.”

“Then give her a list.”

“I…” Yang stared at her scroll and looked over the list of everything she needed. “You… have a point. This is a lot for one person.”

Blake nodded and came out of the fitting room wearing an elven archer costume. “Go find a costume, I’ll take care of the cake, and send Weiss a list of venues to look at.”

Yang smiled. “I see why Ruby likes you.”

“Now go.”

Yang nodded and made her way out of the costume store, crossing off the cake from her list and marking it down as Blake’s responsibility. She paused in her step after a bit as she caught a costume shop she had never seen before out of the corner of her eye. Everything about it seemed off, an orange banner that read “Costumes” with no other sign for a name, and a few halloween decorations put up around the door.

“Well, I guess I dont have anything to lose checking this out,” Yang said to herself as she opened the door. She paused in the doorway as she looked into the shop, rows of costumes lined the walls of the small shop though no one seemed to work it. Just a small sign next to the cash register that read “Leave equal payment”.

“Anyone here?” Yang called out into the shop, the only answer being the empty air of the shop. With no answer, Yang slowly walked in and started to look through the costumes. The first costume she pulled from the rack was an old Victorian style dress from the old Kingdom of Vale in bright yellows, purples, and deep blues. The next costume she looked at was a bear suit that seemed to fit her without issue. Finally, Yang settled on a costume that was labeled as “Princess”, a light blue dress with sparkles and a white choker with a small tag.

“Do not wear past midnight.” Yang chuckled to herself as she folded the costume up. “I dont have to worry about that, nothing we do will last past ten.” She slowly folded the costume and left enough lien to pay for the costume on the counter, too focused on her plans for Ruby’s birthday to notice the shop disappearing as she left and closed the door behind her.

Day-09 !Halloween Pranks With Twice And Toga!

🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

scenario:- a few harmless pranks with toga and twice!

characters:- Himiko toga,Twice

👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻

it was halloween and since it was your first time celebrating with the league you decided to do something #special!

so when you twice and toga were contemplating what to do,toga practically catapulted off the couch and said,in her most excited voice,

"WHAT IF WE DID A FEW HARMLESS PRANKS????!"

your interest was piqued

"like??"

"oh the usual",twice chimed in,"toilet papering houses,stink bombs and egg throwing!"

you nodded it would definitely be an interesting way to spend the night!

so on the night before,you and the two of them got mr.compress's help to steal the supplies(much to his annoyance.he was working on his costume!)

you gathered everything and were about to head out on your mission of mischief when a very important thought occured to you.

"hey what if we get caught??"

"oh we wont."they both said in unison

"oh?"

"yeah we do this every year!"

"oh okie!"

and with that you set off

you did however have one request from one of your fellow league members

it was 'fuckin wreck endevour's place'

you didnt know which of your other friends this request belonged to because you found it written on a piece of paper tucked in your bag but you had an idea...(*cought* dabi)

so naturally the first house you went to was endevour's!

it was fuckin hugee so you knew you'd be here all night

you all peaked in through a window and noticed no one was inside

*insert evil laughter*

you COMPLETELY trashed the place.the trees were decorated in toilet paper,the walls were covered in eggs and youd even rigged some stink bombs to go off when the doors where open

"this actually is fun!" you said while tossing the roll TP over from your spot around the tree to toga

"I told you sooooo~" she said

once you were done,you headed over to twice who was over by the wall admiring his egging

"eggcellent!" you heard him say to himself "its absolutely horrible" "No its not!"

he heard the two of you coming over and turned and waved

when you were together you pulled out the last three rolls of toilet paper and handed them to your two companions

"final throw?"

"YEA!" they said,again,in unison

and on the count of three you guys pelted the last rolls over the roof

you all looked back into your bags and sure enough youd used all yousr supplies...

"well,"you said "looks like thats a wrap!"

you all broke down laughing

"wow y/n!" toga said through tears of laughter "i really didnt think you had such a shitty pun in ya"

"no! it was gooddd," "shes right it was horrible-"

"well then! how about some trick or treat rounds!" said twice as he wrapped his arms around the two of you

"TWICEEEE YOUVE GOT EGG ALL OVER YOUUU" the both of you screamed in horror

"whoops sorryyy"

you brushed it off and just went on outta there

as you were leaving you looks back once to admire your work.

this was definitely goin on the news!

by about midnight,you guys got back to the lair and sorted through all your candy

it really was a great night

you then fell asleep watchin slashers on the couch(twice had cleaned up ofc)

the next day it was very much on the news and your resident arsonist had a noticeable pep in his step.

looks like we now know who left the note~

🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

please dont repost my work here as your own on any platform all rights belong to me except that of the mha characters used,their right belong to their respective owners.but this story? mine.

feedback,likes,reblogs and comments are so very appreciated tbh :’)i hope you enjoyed and ill catch ya next time!

okay so first of all, how dare you, but second of all

some time last month i went to a place called The Paper Store because i thought it was gonna be stationary and like artsy shit but no it was just a hallmark gift store which was incredibly lame but i decided to look around inside anyways cause i was already there. this was just after halloween so all the christmas shit was in full-swing as were general like lame things to take up space under trees such socks that said "fuck this shit" hidden behind a sock-shaped cardboard sign that said "STRONG LANGUAGE MUST BE OVER 18" and a one-quart wine glass that said "JUST ONE MORE."

anyways

there was a jellycat section in there. if you aren't already aware, jellycat is a uk-based company that makes Very Good soft toys. I owned like four jellycats toys at this point, including a large Bashful Dragon which is my current favorite plushy here he is:

(don't mind the fact that im strangling him i was just excited that he'd finally arrived in the mail. very soft fur but fairly firm body, sits up on his own. 10/10 he's great)

so i was like, ah fuck, my wallet. i have like 90 items on my wishlist on their fucking website so i KNOW i'm not leaving this store without a little creature. they have one of the octopi i'd been wanting for a while at a slightly cheaper price than the website, so i was like fine, i'll let myself have that. but then i saw Them

just like. sat next to each other like that. matching. i didn't really have much prior interest in the bashful bunny series aside from maybe getting a big one in the future, and these were the kinda default "medium" size but like. they were all together. and i was like "if i leave them here alone they might get separated. they're already friends. i have to bring them all home."

so yeah i left a store i didnt even actually want to be in with $80 worth of plush toys lol

anyways i got home and was recounting all this to my roommate because i have a compulsion to justify all of my wanton spending to anyone who sees that i've bought something.

for additional context, i've been friends with this rat bastard since 2014, WAY before i got diagnosed, and their younger brother is also on the spectrum in a very similar Flavor. so like they like...kinda knew before i did that i was autistic? but didn't know how to say "hey maybe you should talk to your doctor about this" without sounding rude as fuck so they tried to just casually drop hints that i remind them of their brother which, like, idk if you've ever tried to drop hints with an autistic person, it does Not fucking work lmfao. they were in the house when i had my telehealth appointment earlier this year where i finally got diagnosed and they revealed all of that information to me when i excitedly told them that i finally had an answer about Why I Am The Way I Am lmfao. if that sounds Dickish rest assured that it's just the way we are at each other and i give them just as much shit for assorted other things but anyways

i go on and on about how I was only gonna get the octopus but then i saw the bunnies and they were already friends so i had to take them all and my roommate looked me dead in the eyes and was like

"edwin i don't want this to sound mean, and i say this with all the respect in the world, but did you ever really think you weren't autistic?"

anyways thats the story of getting read to filth by my allistic roommate and then immediately afterwords by the title of a scientific article

#edwin's whinings #autism #neurodiversity #autism post #im coping seething raging pissing my pants AND bald #my fucking wig!!!!

2022

every year i (like to - don't always get to) make a list of cool things that happened to me in the year just gone. so here's a nice summary for 2022:

-getting really into succession and finding characters who i felt understood by and could relate to

-publishing more fanfics

-i got INSANELY busy at work all of a sudden and had this one month where every night i went out to restaurants with family/friends it was weird but nice

-getting to go to my best friends engagement party

-making friends with some new employees at my work and getting to become really close with them

-quitting vaping (i know, i know) and finding the MASSIVE difference it made to my energy levels. instantly feeling more alive and awake and having the energy to live!!!

-going on smoke breaks with one of my favourite coworkers throughout this year and getting the opportunity to become so close to her and get to know her a bit more

-buying mcr tickets for march

-going to my best friends wedding!!

-starting vocal lessons (something that has terrified me but i have wanted to do my whole entire life)

-spending so many weekends drunk watching mcr livestreams and having a BLAST liveblogging with the mutuals

-deciding to do more art and sketches and finding that it made me sooo happy

-finally reaching out to an old friend - something i'd wanted to do for years but was too busy letting fear make my decisions for me

-buying my own apartment and FINALLY!!!! getting to move out of my parents house after 24 years of yearning for that moment

-going to a halloween party and feeling so cool dressed up, doing an insane amount of drugs and having such a nice time

-deciding to let go of what others think and do what makes me happy which involved spending a ridiculous amount of money on impulse piercings (usually getting them before my vocal lessons)

-spending more time writing and being able to use that as a positive coping thing but also just letting myself have fun with it

-making friends with sooo many cool mutuals and joining gcs and always having so many friends to talk to <3

-hitting post limit on the last mcr livestream of the year because we were all having so much fun together

-getting my full licence and being able to listen to whatever music i want while driving. i have since spent every weekend of 2022 driving random places and exploring my local area wind in my hair with the music blasting. i got to go on so many little adventures to new places dressed however i want with a maccas large vanilla iced latte

-going on walks and listening to the most beautiful songs that change my life

-that one night my friend took me to mcdonalds and then for a drive around and i was wizard high and we sat in his car eating and having the most philosophical conversations (he's just a philosophical kind of dude i didnt even plan that)

-getting my own guitar and learning to play. it has felt so right and has felt like coming home. electricity sparks through my hand and up my arm every time i touch it.

-going to melbourne for nye and meeting up with a mutual and getting to try absinthe for the first time and go to my first gay club

-(technically this should/will be in the 2023 post) spending the first day of 2023 with a mutual of mine i'd made 10 years to the date having the time of my life

#2022 #mine #long post #technically this should post under a read more but just in case

Bubba Ho-Tep Review: A Stark Meditation on Age and Elder Care liberally mixed with talk of Elvis Presley's Diseased Penis (Comission For WeirdKev27)

Happy Halloween all you Happy People! It's time once again for me to review some spooky stuff on this fair blog.

Last year I took a nice long look at the Evil Dead quadrilogy, soon to be a quintology as Evil Dead Rise is coming next year provided HBO Max dosen't try to shelve that one too. This year there will be some more deadite hyjinks as we take a look at the first arc of the Evil Dead and Army of Darkness comics, and for the unaware those are very diffrent things because Rights Issues are funny that way, it wouldn't be right if I didn't also include the man who made Ash possible, mr. bruce cambell. Kev clearly felt the same way so here we are with Bubba Ho-Tep, a 2002 film starring the chin himself and vetran theater actor, character actor, director, activist and all around awesome dude I just learned about thanks to this film Ozzie Davis as the two play elderly men who may be Elvis, having switched places with an impersonator years before his "death" and JFK having been turned into a black man and given sawdust to replace the rest of his brain as their a bunch of elderly people's only hope against an ancient mummy dressed like a cowboy for reasons only vaugely explained whose after their souls, all directed by the same guy who wrote the horror classic i've never seen Phantasm, while also medetating on the strain of aging, how society treats the elderly, and Elvis' Cancer Riddled Penis

This may be the weridest thing i've covered on this blog and with almost 400 articles under my belt and having covered things like this

Just within this year alone, it's a high achievement. So come along with me as I unpack all of this won't ya?

For starters the film's tone is REALLY weird. I mean you'd think with the subject matter it'd be a campy shlocky action fest and while this is very much a b-movie, it's also one that starkly and depressingly tackles aging. While our hero is indeed probably Elvis, he's on his last legs. He spends most of his days laid up in his bed, depressed, barely moving and talking at length about the growth on his penis.

Now you may think "Jake why did you bring this up at all, surley this is just a throaway gag or something right?". Well no. For one thing, the film OPENS, just throws you into Elvis talking about his sad state of affairs while talking in graphic detail about how bad his johnson is. A sad, long monologue about Elvis feeling so lonely he could cry because his wang can't anymore, Elvis in the middle of a mooving scene we'll get to more in a moment oggling a woman and being glad his burning love can still at least flutter a little. There is an uncomfortable amount of time spent with Elvis' dick, and I suspect it's purposeful, but probably still coudl've been trimmed a little or at least lead into better. It is a LOT and dosen't really make you WANT to watch more. I might not have were I not being paid to hear bruce cambell give an artful silloquy about his dingus. Kev also did not remotely warn me about any of this.

I mean he got a good interaction out of me, mission acomplished there but who does that.

And yet the king's junk ... is an important and tragic part of the film. I didnt think i'd be getting paid to type about the tragedy of Elvis' penis in the same year as a film where Tom Hanks doing some weird undefinatble accent as Col Tom Parker takes you through Elvis' life, goes nearly mad thanks to the hippies and is narrating all of this from some casnio waiting room in the after life while Ross Butler gives a career making performance as the king, but here. We. Are.

But said growth is humilating, has to be treated by a nurse once a day.. and towards the end Elvis reveals it's most likely cancerous, with the staff not having the decency to tell him because they figure he'll die before it gets to that. It sums up Elvis' predicament well: He's not treated as an adult, let alone a person and isn't given any dignity. He's just there to be shuffled about and to get checks from. To stay there till he dies infantalized, humaliated, alone and forgotten. It's a BITING indicment of how the worse retirement home treat people: giant cages for people to rob them of their dignity and what life they have left. The king dosen't move hardly at all or do anything at first, not really needing or wanting to and having none of the spark that made him a star left, in a place where children don't visit, as seen when a friend of Elvis dies and his grandaughter just casually throws away his things and has no actual defense for never visiting. It's a disposal for humans and the film makes a great point both that we just kind of willfully ignore this happens and that we shoudln't: We need to have more empathy.

It's only the thrill of stabbing an ancient scarab trying to steal his soul that reawakens the once and future king's passion

And it's here that Corascelli makes another good point :Just because society gives up on you isn't a reason to give up on yourself. Elvis may be old and likely to die but as he and Jack investigate the mummy what lives in a hole in their yard, you see the life come back in him, life Jack always had. Jack never gave up even as understandably no one belived his story and it's thorugh their honestly sweet friendship and this deering doo that Elvis becomes his old swaggering self again, from gleefully jumping into the investigation because he has nothing better to do to telling his nurse to fuck off for patronizing him. It's a slow progressive change but it's a well done one both in the writing and Cambell's acting. He enters the final act back in his iconic white spangly suit, ready to kick a mummy's ass. not because he needs to for himself: now he and John are aware they can stay away, but because he knows Ho-Tep will just keep feeding and feeding on the lost souls of the retirment home and that no one else is going to protect them: I'ts down to him and while he sadly only barely surivvies, and not for long the process and John very much dosen't, he takes out hotep and wins.. able to die having made sure no one else goes.

It's a powerhouse performance from Bruce, with him even bragging how he made a good performance out of elvis with dick cancer, his words not mine, and manages to be impactful, heartbrekaing and ocasoinally hilarious, like Elvis' disbelief at when trying to find something to watch finding a marathon of his film announcing "all those movies are shit". It's a grea tperformance. Ossie Davis likewise fucking brings it, both being hilarous as Jack completely commits to saying he's JFK, but also being charasmatic, charming and heartbreaking when he finally does leave. The duo's chemstiry is infectious and really carries the film

So while the film has suprising depth, heart and a fun duo it's not without it's issues: The film comes off VERY cheap, and while I don't mind a film having to be made on a budget, it dosen't have to LOOK like it: WHile the effects for the mummy and it's scarab look fine, the rest of the film often looks like a made for tv movie. And I thought for a second Phantasm had a higher budget but no: Phantasm was made for 300 thousand dollars to Bubba Hotep's one milliona nd even adjusted for inflation, it only goes up to 743 thousand, just a bit UNDER Bubba's budget. So while I get using just one setting and what effects he had, It dosen't justify the film being shot so plainly. Just form what i've seen of phantasm in clips the man can do better with less and I expect as much.

The humor is also VERY hit and miss. There is a LOT of dick and ass jokes. One or two work like Elvis for some reason assuming hotep is going to shove his walker up his ass then shove elvis up Jack's ass, but mostly it just comes off a tad gross.

Finally the pacing isn't great. Our heroes don't find out it's a mummy till an hour in and only start investigating after that. I don't mind a slow burn in horror but they coudl've shaved at least 20 minutes off this. There are a LOT of slow shots of people walking which works when it's emphasising the characters age but rarely elsewhere.

Overall Bubba Ho-Tep is a flawed flim.. but it's still one with a lot of heart, some fun elements, and two standout performances. It took a while to really grow on me but by it's badass and oddly tragic finale I was hooked. It's not the best horror film by a mile, but it is one worth your time.

psssttt leeviiii

Welp here they ALL are since you didnt say and I'm crazy in love with him tonight. XD

1. What is your favorite thing that your f/o does for you?

Ah man I love so many things he does for me! Levi helps me in so many ways! But I think I would have to say making me tea is my absolute favorite that he does. He always makes it so perfect, exactly how I like it. Plus I just adore that he makes sure every day to set aside tea time so we can be together.

2. Where did you first meet your f/o?

Levi and I first officially met at Hogwarts our second year after I had been unpetrified and Dumbledore was throwing a midnight celebration for the whole castle. And we've been practically inseparable ever since.

3. How do you and your f/o spend valentines day?

It's become tradition for Levi and I to spend Valentine's having tea at Madame Puddifoot's in Hogsmeade. We've gone almost ever year since we first started dating at 15. Sure its cheesy how she decorates the tea shop with the most over the top hearts and flowers and laces, but she makes delicious tea and there's something so simple and sweet about it all.

4. What couples costume do you think you and your f/o would dress up as for Halloween?

Ah Levi and I tend to go the classic monster route, most commonly vampires! It's not too over the top for Levi and honestly vampires are hot soooooo.... XD I'm sure as hell not complaining!

5. Movie night! What movie are you watching with your f/o and what snacks do you have?

Ooh Levi and I love a good fantasy/adventure movie! Or a really cheesy bad comedy ala spaceballs or hot shots. As for snacks, Levi knows he better stop by Honeydukes before a movie night so he can load us up on chocolate frogs, ice mice, sugar quills, cauldron cakes, the works!

6. What hobbies do you and your f/o like to do together if any?

We love snuggling up with a good book, horseback riding together, or doing puzzles. But mostly we enjoy partaking in our own hobbies in the same room as each other. Like any time I'm working on a new potion, Levi will find his way in with whatever new book he's reading.

7. Where do you and your f/o go for ideal dates?

Levi and I love places where we can go and people watch! Like the museum or the Leaky Cauldron or Diagon Alley, all are great places to spend an afternoon just talking, enjoying each other's company, and making up lives for the strangers around us. We also love picnics when we want something more private, whether that's at a park, a meadow, or our own backyard, it's nice to just have quiet alone time.

8. Who deals with bugs in the house?

Levi, Levi, Levi, 100% always.

9. Clothes swap! How amusing is it or how adorable is it?

Ooooooh see I think I would look rather adorable in his clothes and will totally steal things whenever I want. The reverse however.... well Levi's not exactly the type to pull off skirt and dresses, especially my goth ones! He fares better with my masc looks, like he can manage the goth masc outfits, but he does look pretty funny in my long shorts and tropical button ups.

10. What does your f/o do when you’re having a bad day that always makes you feel better no matter what?

Ah Levi is really big on giving me snuggles on hard days. He knows I struggle with decompressing on my own so he'll just pull me in and make me come lay down with him. I'm much more likely to allow myself to decompress if I'm lying down in a dark cozy room, especially if Levi is there to calm me down.

11. Sick day! What does your f/o do to make you feel better?

Well, Levi goes full caretaker mode when I'm sick. This man is constantly on my ass about eating and drinking water and getting enough sleep. He knows I can be kinda stubborn at first then get really whiny once I do accept that I'm sick. So things will go much smoother if he can force me to take care of myself right from the beginning. Also SO MUCH TEA

12. What cheesy romance trope do you and your f/o embody the most?

Ooooooh hmmmm.... I think I'd have to go with friends to lovers as we were the very best of friends once we finally met. But over time that strong friendship grew and grew until neither of us could imagine life without the other. He will forever be my best friend, my lover, my soulmate.

using the questions from here with Hauser :> Didn't answer all of them as I didnt have thought out answers for some but ah well.

______________________________________________________

how does your muse get local news and updates on current events? are they up to date with all the latest goings-on or do they prefer to avoid it altogether?

He doesn't really keep up to date with local news for no other reason than he just doesn't care enough to go out of his way. He's absolutely the type to see news articles on twitter days later, shrug about it, and then return to his day. Unless it affects him or his loved ones, he couldn't care less.

did your muse grow up with any particular television shows? do they have a favorite, or a memory tied to these shows?

There were absolutely shows he watched as a kid though none really stuck with him at the time as he was too caught up in the gang life during his early teenage years. Actually, it wasn't until his adulthood that he came to appreciate cartoons. He usually binge watches old shows (think like rugrats type old school) while he's stoned, he finds them more entertaining.

how much effort does your muse put into their costume for halloween parties and other dress-up events? do they have any go-to costumes?

He absolutely hates dress-up events if we're talking fancy dress parties. He would stick out like a sore thumb for MANY reasons there. Halloween, though, he loves though he wouldn't admit it. His effort usually depends on if he joins a costume contest or not that year. If he does, he'll go all out. If not, walmart clearance is fine.

does your muse stay up to date with the latest fashion trends? describe their style. where do they typically buy their clothes? who was their first celebrity crush?

He dresses like he's straight out of the early 70s rock scene. Absolutely not, he has no idea about fashion trends and thinks a lot of the present day stuff is pointless. Take this with a grain of salt, though, as he was absolutely a Hot Topic Mall Goth in his early teen years so. As for the celebrity crush, I wouldn't say he "crushed" on anyone in particular but he definitely vibed with Siouxie Sioux & similar musicians.

what would your muse's bio say if they were on a dating app?

He'd be the type to have a shirtless bathroom mirror pic ngl. Lots of blurry were-form selfies too. Bio would be something along the lines of :: " Werewolf4Werewolf, Pansexual, Gymbro, not interested in Packs, The only thing worse than my RBF is my mommy issues. dtf? "

Can probably guess he's not exactly popular on the dating apps lmao

what kind of phone does your muse have, and how customized is it? does it have a basic case or something more unique? is the screen cracked? do they have a popsocket or other accessories on it?

He definitely has something cheap that breaks very easily, which is evident by the large crack on his screen from one end of the phone to the other. He's had it for years and until it finally completely dies on him, has absolutely no interest in getting a new one. It still works so its still good. He doesn't have a case but he does have a lil bat charm on it that makes him think of Ambrose.

who was the one family member your muse always looked up to, if any?

His aunt by FAR as she was the only one willing to actually sit down and talk with him and hear him out on his issues. Dude still has a lot of anger issues he's working through but talking with Solange helps him rationalize a LOT. She's the only one in his family he really gives half a fuck about.

if your muse drives a car, have they personalized it in any way (bumper stickers, things hanging from the rearview mirror, etc.)?

He doesn't drive, he can't afford a car. If he can't get there by way of his wolf form then it's public transit all the way. If he could, he'd try to avoid the latter though.

if given a choice between having a night in or spending the night out on the town, which would they most likely choose and why?

Night in. There's less people there. Occasionally he might opt for a bar or a club but it's not really often he does. Otherwise it's Ambrose dragging him out to explore the city.

what are your muse's favorite scents, and what do they associate them with?

He loves that smell just before it rains and the smell of burning wood. It gives him a cozy campfire feeling. He's also finding out he's slowly enjoying the scent of a specific brand of cologne that Ambrose wears but that one might be a bit too obvious.

what kind of shopper is your muse? are they a slow, methodical shopper, a list-maker, or a grab the items and go kind of person? how long do they usually spend getting their groceries? how long do they spend clothes shopping? do they use changing rooms?

Hauser absolutely is not the type to take his time shopping. He knows what he's there for and nothing more. In and out quickly is his preferred way. As for clothes shopping, he usually seeks out thrift stores or secondhand shops. He'll use changing rooms as he's too concerned about wasting money.

if something bad happens, who will your muse call first?

Depends on the situation. If he's in trouble/hurt, he's calling Ambrose. If he needs advice or to vent/rant/etc, he's calling his aunt.

if your muse was made into an action figure, what would their five catchphrases be?

"FUCKING BITCH." (it is quickly discontinued) what are your muse's biggest fears, and what caused them?

Abandonment despite the fact he's usually the first to run away, as has been proven several times throughout his story. As for why he's like this, simply it is all he's known not to trust anybody. It usually ends in him getting physically hurt or his friends murdered.

does your muse know how to fight? describe their fighting style. if someone was threatening them and about to attack, how would they respond?

He can fight, yes. He doesn't have a particular "style" of fighting, just very much Bite Them Before They Bite You. He only fights in his were-form tho as claws+fangs are a lot more effective.

will your muse eat at fast food restaurants? if they're on a time crunch, what type of food will they grab?

Oh fast food is his jam (totally not because he never learned how to cook). His go to is usually just a burger & fries

did your muse's parents pass down any quirks or habits that your muse now does? what are they?

If they did, he's not aware of any. His parents cared for him while at the same time let him do whatever he liked. (which ultimately led to him being a rowdy teen that got involved in gangs but I digress). They could have been far worse parents but they could have been far better too rather than leaving their only child to deal with his own emotions & issues.

does you muse like road trips, or would they prefer to fly in a plane? what are their thoughts on roadside attractions and tourist traps? when visiting new cities, do they prefer to see the most popular sites, or pretend to be a local and blend in?

As someone that was on the run for awhile for two separate incidents, he highly prefers staying home. He likes the stability he's built for himself. If he ever went on a trip, he'd be too anxious the entire time to actually enjoy himself as he associates long distance trips with those two times he was trying to escape.

what does your muse's bedroom look like? is it cluttered or clean? do they use the overhead lighting, or use lamps and other things to provide a better ambience? do they make their bed every morning or leave it unmade?

Messy but in a maximalist sense? Lots of vintage old heavy rock memorabilia & posters & such, things like that. Everything has a place and everything is in it's place & if its ever "cleaned", it'll feel messy to him since he wouldn't be able to find anything. He's also not really the type to make his bed but sometimes he'll smooth out the wrinkles. Sometimes. He's usually always burning some type of incense, usually patchouli.

is your muse a 'this is a really nice box, i should save it' kind of person, or do they tend to throw things out no matter what?

He's not a hoarder but he definitely collects a lot of things, definitely evident in his home by all the knick knacks and tiny things he has. If he likes it, he will try to get it.

Relationships: NCT DREAM

Look for Mark and Haechan: here

RenMae

Okay RenMae is one of the top if not the #1 among NCT

fans are like almost 100% sure they’re soulmates

Like there was no awkward small talk when they first met they just talked and ended up each other’s best friend

You would think they’d be childhood friends or at least friends before they became trainees with the way they interact even though they met at SM

she did confess to him before debut that she had a crush on him but he thought she was joking and now none of them talk about of that

Whenever she has a hard time sleeping and wants to sleep with someone, the first option is renjun

she also steals his clothes a lot and renjun’s pretty sure half the clothes in Mae’s closet belong to him

he just stopped fighting her about it because of how stubborn she was and let her do what she wanted

there was this one time he ran out of shirts to wear so he just walked to Mae’s closet and took one out

there was also this one time Renjun was in China and Jaemin posted a pic of Mae taking a nap with Renjun’s sweater on saying that she missed him so much so she wore his sweater

yeaaaaah nct twt broke that day and Renjun’s phone was blowing up with notifications

they dressed as peter pan and tinkerbell for halloween and have each other as that for each other’s contact name uwu

okay enough with the corny stuff

just because they’re close doesnt mean they’ll hold back on each other when it comes to teasing each other

like you wouldnt want to get in their crossfire unless you want them to turn their attention on you instead

MaeNo

you would think he’s older than her because of how protective he is of her

He has eyes like a damn hawk when they’re going somewhere

whenever they’re doing schedules you can see Jeno holding her hand as they make their way through all the crowd and glancing around to see if anyone has any bad intentions towards her

If it weren’t for his status as an idol you would think he was a bodyguard and he would beat up someone for Mae’s sake

whenever they record Jeno always waits for her to finish so they can go home together no matter how late at night it is

there was this one time sasaengs kept calling her phone during a live so he just grabbed her phone and turned it off and threw it too the side without saying a word

Second person Mae goes to when she has nightmares

they’re also have a really playful relationship

like there was this one time she wasn’t paying attention to him so he just lifted her and put her over his shoulder like a potato sack even though there was staff watching them Mae has tried and failed to do the same to jeno

You know how jeno says he likes being called no jam bc of how it makes him feel less burdened? Yeah she always throws him under the bus when it comes to variety shows

she has a samoyed plush on her bed when she bought when she went shopping with him bc it reminded her of jeno

Sometimes she hugs the plush instead of jeno just to annoy him lol

“I’m right here you know” “well the plushie is more huggable for you information”

Yes he did tackle her after that comment

MaeMin

okay this man right here

you know how he melts at everything jisung does? yeah the same goes for Mae

only that she openly accepts his affection and lets him cling to her whenever he wants like his personal teddy bear

you know how at fansigns idols sometimes get gifted cute headbands and plushies? he openly yelled “i love you!” to her when he saw her with a cat ear headband surrounded by plushies

she’s also like really impressed by him

she never thought she’d meet someone who would do aegyo so willingly and so shamelessly

like that one episode of weekly idol where they did the ottoke song and jaemin did a duet with everyone? yeah she couldn’t believe someone like him existed

he basically acts as her parent if none of the 127 members aren’t near them

Whenever they’re on reality shows and the prize is food he always put someone on her plate regardless of whether she lost or not

third person mae goes to when she has nightmares

would not leave his side for a week when he was put on hiatus and couldnt perform with the rest of the dreamies

she didnt want him to feel lonely while everyone else went to promote without him :(

All in all, they’re very affectionate and if they’re together you’ll have to pry jaemin’s hands off her

ChenMae

Mae’s child #1

he got lost in the company building and was too shy to ask the staff so mae approached him and brought him to wear he needed to be

accidentally called her hyung once when he was still learning korean but it ended up sticking so now he and jisung call her hyung instead of noona

When he first joined she helped him adjust with her broken Chinese and now they help each other with the language

one time she visited his house for dinner and his mom made her eat a lot of food because of how skinny she was chenle didnt stop her bc she needs sustenance >:(

wants to give her a personal tour of Shanghai when they’re given enough time for vacation

you know how chenle gave 00line watches when they became adults? he had to fight mae to get her to keep it bc she didnt want him spending money on her

legit he tried to buy her stuff but the only thing she accepted was the watch and this cute charm bracelet that says NCT on it

he put one of his photocards in her phone case (the WGU one with him by the water) and she hasn’t removed it since

he’s really smug abt it and brags to the others about it jisung retaliated by putting his photocard too so now she as to make both of them visible

fights jisung for favorite child position and he wins 50% of the time even though she says she doesnt have one

MaeSung

Mae’s child #2

took one look at him and decided to protect him

she’s used to other people taking care of her so it was nice to take care of someone else for once

i said he also calls Mae hyung but it’s also because he forgets that she’s a girl?

sometimes he hears someone call Mae ‘noona’ and he just gets whiplash because he got reminded that his “hyung” is really a girl put in a boy group

they were honestly really awkward when they first met because Jisung didn’t know how to react to a girl joining the group and kinda avoided her until she cornered him

calls him a tree whenever he teases her about her height

mae when jisung tease/pranks her: i’ve fed and raised you and this is the treatment i get?!?

jisung: you’re only two years older than me….

he gets pouty when Mae doesn’t pay attention to him

theres this one video of Mae talking to another member during Resonance filming and you just see him pouting in the background before walking to her and giving her a back hug

definitely uses his status as a maknae to his advantage

she’s not even subtle about it she’ll buy or cook food for him or yield whenever he loses a game

whenever she’s not around he always brags that he’s her favorite nct member haechan and renjun get so salty abt it lmao

#24th member of nct #nct 24th member #nct female addition #nct female oc #nct au #kpop female addition #nct addition #nct dream female addition #nct dream female member #nct 127 female member #nct 127 female addition

-Halloween- Draco Malfoy x Female Reader

Summary: It’s Halloween time, which means the Weasley twins are up to no good. They play a prank on Y/N that goes to far.

Warning: panic attacks, cursing, soft Draco, mature themes

House: Slytherin

♡~🐍~♡

Halloween, one of Y/N’s favorite holiday’s. She loved everything about Halloween. Down to trick or treating and carving pumpkins. She used to love to spend time with her parents on Halloween, but after they died while fighting Death-Eaters in her home. The holiday was never the same, but she still enjoyed it nonetheless.

The twins had left her a note on her dorm room door. How they got into the Slytherin dorms was beyond her, but the Weasley twins always found a way when it came to there pranks. The note read “Princess, we have something to tell you in the room of requirement, come after breakfast” she stared at it for a couple seconds before shrugging.

The twins were her best friends so she figured what ever they needed had to be important. With it being a free day at Hogwarts she wore Draco’s green jumper. It had his name on the back and she loved to wear it and he loved to see her in it. with it always being cold in Hogwarts she wore black leggings to keep her warm. She headed out the common room and to the great hall.

When Y/N got there her eyes wandered until they landed on her Boyfriend. She walked slowly until she made her way behind him, covering his eyes with the palms of her hands. She leaned down “Guess who?” she whispers in his ear with a giggle. Draco smirked lightly as he put his hands over her’s “Hmm let me see? Parkinson?” he teased making Y/N huff and go to pull her hands away, but Draco gripped them and pulled her to sit down next to him.

“Awe love, i'm only joking” He fake pouts at her angered expression. Y/N puffed her cheeks out in annoyance before a evil iea popped in her mind “When i did it to Harry he knew it was me” Draco’s eyebrow raised slightly and his hands let go of her hands and gripped her waist “You did what?” he seethed. Yes, jealous Draco. “Awe love, I’m only joking” she mocked his voice. He glared at her before dipping his head into her neck “You know better then to tease me, love” he muttered against her skin.

Draco suddenly bit her neck, Y/N gasped and covered her mouth with her hand careful not to drawn attention to them. “Draco, n-not here” she whimpered as he gave her waist a light squeeze “You know i don't like when you mention saint Potter” he bit her neck again giving her the same reaction as the first time. Removing her hand from her mouth “You know i don't like when you mention Pansy” she retorts. He smiled slightly before moving his head to look at her “Fine, im sorry” he says and leans into capture her lips with his i a sweet kiss.

Y/N smiles like an idiot as he pulls away, “Apology excepted, i won't talk about Harry again” Draco smiles and he lets go of her. She moves her body to lean against his and they began to eat breakfast.

♡~🐍~♡

As breakfast ended Y/N sat up straight and stretched her arms. Draco stood up from his seat and held out his hand for his girlfriend, which she happily took and stood up as well “So, wanna head to my dorm so i can give you more then those two bites” he says in a low tone, his hand pushing the hair from my neck to gaze upon his work of art. Y/N’s face heated up at his words and playfully hit his chest “I have to meet up with the twins first for something” she shrugs.

Draco frowned as he wrapped his arms around her torso “But you’ve been so busy lately. I want Y/N time too” he whines like a five year old who has been denied his favorite toy. His actions make Y/N giggle a bit “It’ll only be a minute then im all yours for the rest of the day” Draco perked up at the words and grinned happily “10 minutes okay?” he says and Y/N nods “10 minutes” she repeats. She gives him a short kiss and pulls away from his grasp.

Y/N waves to him before she leaves the great hall, leaving a lovestruck Draco behind to smile stupidly before heading to his dorm to wait for his lovely Slytherin girlfriend.

♡~🐍~♡

Y/N pushed opened the doors to the room of requirement to see no one there. She’s very confused but walks in just in case they were just behind something and that's the reason she couldn't see them. “George?” she calls out, but no one answered. “Fred?” no answer as well. She sighs. Those idiots forgot about there meeting that quick. Y/N would definitely would deal with them later, but a very handsome boy was waiting for her back at the dorms.

Just as Y/N was about to turn around towards the door it shuts with a loud sound. She jumps slightly and looks around frantically “Guys, you better not be messing with me!” she snaps. The lights started to flicker making her shudder and think back to that night when Death-Eaters came to her home. Suddenly the lights were out. Leaving her in the pitch black. Her breathing sped up and she instinctively backed up until she hit something hard.

Thinking it was a wall Y/N sighed, until it grabbed at her making her yelp and push away. Loud sounds cam from everywhere. Crashing and shouting, taking her to the darkest corners of her mind. she fell to her knees and held her hands over her ears. Trying to drown out the noise. Her heartbeat was going extremely fast and her breathing was erratic. “George i dont think this is funny anymore” a voice came from the darkness “Turn the lights back on Fred”

The lights were switched back on and the twins were seen holdinmetallicic objects that they used to bang together and create the loud noise. Y/N was rocking back and forth in her place making the Weasleys worried. “Princess?” George crouched beside her and touched her shoulder. She screamed and backed away, shutting her eyes “It’s just us!” Fred exclaimed.

Y/N was to far into her mind to process that she was safe and no one was going to hurt her, George was now extremely panicked and looked at his brother “Get Malfoy maybe he’ll know what to do?!” he suggested. Fred nodded hastily and ran out the room. George turned back to Y/N and frowned

♡~🐍~♡

Fred ran up the stairs, doing his best not to fall, he saw a couple of Slytherins outside the common room door. He made his way to them out of breath “What do you want Weasley?” Pansy sneered, crossing her arms “I...need....Malfoy......Y/N” he sabetweenent pants for air “What?” Pansy laughed, making the two other Slytherins laugh with her.

“Your not bullying Gryffindors again are you Pansy?” A voice came from the stairs. Blaise Zabini. He looked at the Weasley and nodded towards him “Why do you need to see Malfoy?” he asked. He knew Y/N was friends with them so he wanted to be somewhat respectful. “We played a prank on Y/N, but she’s freaking out and we need Malfoy to calm her down!” “You what?!” Exclaimed a blond Slytherin who had just walked out the common room.

“Were so sorry we didnt!-” “I dont care for your shitty excuses, take me to my girlfriend now, Weasley!” Draco snapped with an angered expression. Fred nodded slowly before they both ran down the stairs. Leaving the shocked Slytherins behind them “He really loves her” Blaise chuckled with a smirk.

♡~🐍~♡

Fred pushed the door open and Draco rushed in quickly, he saw his girlfriend against a wall with her hands in her face. Her loud sobs and rough breathing made his heart tug violently. George spotted them and walked over quickly. “Don't be loud, it’ll only freak her out more” he said in a hushed tone. Draco growled and pulled his wand out, pointing it at the both of them. They raised their hands quickly “What. Did. You. Do?” he hissed, venom lacing his voice.

“We brought her here with a note and let her walk in, when she went to leave we shut the door, turned out the lights, made loud noises and grabbed at her. It was supposed to be funny but she started freaking out so we stopped” George explained quickly. Fred nodded in agreement. Draco glared at them before pointing to the door with his wand “Out now” the twins nodded and left in a rush.

When Y/N and Draco started to get serious she told him of the story on how her parents died. Every detail. He knew what triggered you, he knew why you were so upset now. His first thought was that he wished he talked you out of coming, but how could he have known. He pocketed his wand before crouching down next to you.

Draco reached out and grabbed your hand, your body started to shake and you pushed away “Love, open your eyes it’s me. Draco your boyfriend” he said, but you weren’t listening. Despite your flailing body he wrapped his arms around you “Y/N just listen to my voice” Y/N could smell his cologne and the scent of green apples suddenly. It made her feel safe, and at peace. Her breathing started to slow down as Draco whispered reassuring words into her ear.

Y/N pulled her head away from his chest to look at his face. He looked worried and was that a tear? “Draco?” she whispered. He looked at her and smiled “There you are” he said sweetly. She reached up and wiped the tear from his face “Why are you crying?” she asked, her voice rough from sobbing. “You have no idea how much pain it brings me when you are like that” he whispered, his voice cracking.

“I may never be able to know what goes on in your head, but i will always be here to pick you up when you fall, my love” Y/N smiles at his words as she grabs his face. She moves her body to wrap her legs around his torso “Thank you so much Draco” she leans her forehead against his. He smiles and put one hand on the small of her back to push her body flush against his while the other cupped her face.

“Like i said, always” Draco’s hand slithered from her face to the nape of her neck to pull her into a deep kiss. She responds instantly and kisses back with the same amount of love he does. They pull away out of breath making him grin “Want to take this to my dorm finally?” he says, his head dipping into her neck to bite at the sensitive skin. Y/N whimpers softly and smiles “Yeah”

A/N: Kinda spicy, but not a smut. I could write smut if you guys want. My requests are open for anyone that wants to ♡

Happy birthday Logan!

Summary: It's Logan's birthday! He is a bit scared for all the attention that birthdays bring, but his roommates will make this day unforgettable... right?

Ugh

Logan woke up with a groan, he never liked this day. Something about all the positivity and the happy people made him uncomfortable. Yes, he was a year older, that's how humans work, why should they celebrate that? Logan stepped out of bed and started to change into his normal outfit.

When he walked downstairs he prepared himself for his energetic roommates to congratulate him. Roman and Patton always made a big deal out of birthdays. For Virgil's birthday the two had spend weeks planning a nightmare before chrismas themed sleepover, just with the four of them. When Roman's birthday came, Patton had made Virgil and Logan help him to turn their apartment into a broadway themed paradise, with Roman as the star. Patton's birthday was a whole different kind of special. The three roommates had really tried their best to let their best friend know how much they appreciated him. Patton had been drowned in presents, every present handmade and given a personal twist. Tears had fallen down Patton's cheeks and they ended up in a group hug.

But today it was Logan's turn. His 'special' day. To Logan's suprise, the living room was empty when he arrived downstairs. No happy chatter, no grumpy Virgil and no Roman serenading the pancakes. It was completely silent. That's weird, not even Patton was here to prepare his signature birthday breakfast. With a confused look Logan grapped his coffee mug and made himself a cup of coffee.

After a few minutes, Logan could here faint footsteps comming downstairs. Ah, there came the birthday energy. He expected to see Patton walking into the kitchen to greet him with a big hug, but instead he saw Virgil. His roommate let out a groan as his way of greeting Logan and poured himself a cup of coffee before making his way to the living room. Strange

Another ten minutes later, a louder noice came downstairs. Loud footsteps marched downstairs followed by a powerful voice singing some Disney songs. Roman.

"Morning nerd!" Roman greeted and made himself a cup of camomile tea, still mumbling the melody of the song. After questioning himself if he should try to steal a cookie from Patton's collection (he decided not to), Roman sat down next to Virgil on the couch, turning on the TV.

What was going on? .....They hadn't forgotten his birthday had they? Not that Logan was that sentimental when it came to birthdays, it still felt kind of nice to be complimented and appreciated once in a while. Maybe they were waiting until Patton came downstairs? That made sense. Speaking of their last roommate, shouldn't he be here already? Patton was always the first to wake up. 'To make my special boys some breakfast!' As Patton himself liked to say. It wasn't like him to still be in bed this late.

With a bad gut feeling, Logan walked back to their rooms, making his way to Patton. He would be lying if he said that he wasn't concerned about this whole situation. Anxiously he knocked on the lightblue door before fidgeting with his tie. He could hear a loud yawn coming from inside Patton's room, followed by footsteps. The door opened and Logan saw a very tired Patton. The smaller buy carefully rubbed his eyes before stretching his arms.

"Goodmorning Lolo...", another yawn, "What can I do for you?" Patton had definitely just woken up. His voice was really soft and tired and he was still wearing his pyjamas.

"Salutations Patton, my apologies if I have woken you up, I was simply concerned about your wellbeing."

Patton looked up at him, blinking a couple times before actually hearing what Logan said. "Those were a lot of fancy words Logan. I'm fine though! Just had to finish something last night, didn't get that much sleep."

A relief, mixed with some confusion fell over Logan. He then started to realise that it had been quiet for a few minutes now. Just when he wanted to speak up again, a weight started to lean against Logan. Patton had fallen asleep again. He must have been really tired then, to fall asleep in Logan's arms. Logan chuckled to himself before carefully picking Patton up, carrying him downstairs.

When he walked into their living room, Logan gently placed Patton on one of their couches, covering him with a fluffy blanket. He heard a chuckled laugh behind him and when he turned around he saw Roman and Virgil smirking at him. "Didn't take you for the princely type Specks. Are you trying to take over my job?" Logan rolled his eyes and ignored Roman. "I'm with Flynn Rider over here. One of those himbo's is more than enough already." Virgil crossed his arms before pushing Roman into their kitchen. The theee roommates made themselves breakfast, since Patton was clearly unable to do it for them, and sat down.

"Doing anything special today guys?" Roman asked while eating a spoonful of cornflakes. Ah there it came. The birthday plans. Except, it didnt?

"You know me Princey, I'm busy planning on how to take over the government and making Welcome to the black parade the new national anthem." Virgil finished his bowl and sat it down in the sink, "Better start making my plans, see you later nerds."

Just when Virgil walked back to his room, they could hear some movements from the living room. Patton carefully made his way to the kitchen, wrapped up in a blanket burrito.

"Goodmorning Ro, hi again Lolo." Tiredly, Patton made himself a sandwich before sitting next to Logan, leaning on his shoulder. "I'm sorry that I fell alseep on you Logan" Logan smiled softly at Patton and intertwined their fingers. "It's quite alright Patton, I hope you'll feel a little more energetic soon"

The three roommates finished their breakfast and Roman and Patton made their way back upstairs to get properly dressed. A sad feeling fell over Logan, had they really forgotten his birthday? It definitely seemed like they had...

Logan decided to leave the house for a couple of hours, going to the library. If his friends didn't want to celebrate his birthday then he had to make it a great day for himself on his own. Maybe being surrounded by books would make him feel a little happier. So Logan left a sticky note on the table with his location, grapped his coat and stepped outside.

The fresh wind in his face already made him feel a bit better. The Fall weather always cheered him up a bit, the pretty leafs colouring the landscape and the beautiful aesthetic of orange and red. Logan warmed his hands by putting them in his coat pockets and let out a sigh. Fall had always been his favourite season. The cold nights he spend together with his roommates rewatchings movies, watching Virgil turn into a his 'true form' as he called it during their annual Halloween celebration, following Roman to every little market he could find and buying the most ridiculous and unnecessary items and of course the lazy days he and Patton spend cuddled up in one of their rooms, sharing soft kisses and drifting off to sleep from time to time.

With a soft smile on his face, Logan entered the library, greeting ms. Williams who he had become really close with after spending all his teenage years in this library. He made his way to the mystery section, collected a couple of his favourite books and sat down at one of the tables next to the windows. Logan read his way through five books before hearing someone enter the building.

"Logan? Are you here?"

A soft voice echoed through the library and Logan could hear ms. Williams reassuring Patton that Logan was in fact somewhere in here. Patton thanked the librarian and Logan could hear his footsteps comming his way. "There you are Lolo! I was worried that we lost you on your birthday!" His boyfriend softly giggled and sat down next to Logan.

"So.. So you didn't forget my birthday?" Logan shyly looked down at his hands, cursing himself for the blush that spread over his face. "Of course not Starlight! How could we ever forget the day someone this amazing was born?" Patton let out another giggle before taking Logan's hands in his, "What did you think we all have been working on all these weeks? What did you think I was working on last night? Come Lo! Virge and Ro are waiting for us at home!"

Patton pulled his boyfriend up and helped him return the books to their places. He enthusiastically waved ms. Williams goodbye, who chuckled and gave Logan a soft smile as to say 'You better not let that one go Logan'. With their hands intertwined, they made their way outside again. When Logan shivered slightly from the cold, Patton pressed his side to him, resting his head on his shoulder. "To keep us warm!" Logan let out a soft laugh and put his arm around Patton's shoulder, pressing him closer. In a comfortable silence the two made their way back home.

When they were close to their house, Logan could hear music coming from inside of the place. Patton turned the key around and opened the door. The two were met by the smell of cinnamon, pumpkin bread and chocolate. Logan, as the gentleman he was, helped Patton with his coat and put both of their coats away. Patton, once again, grapped Logan's hand and tugged him to the living room. And wow.

Logan definitely hadn't expected this. His friends had completely transformed their living room. The couches were pushed against the wall, the curtains were closed and the floor was covered in pillows. Cinnamon scented candles were placed everywhere and the table was covered with sweets and other delicious foods. He felt Patton's arm wrapped around him and leaned back against his boyfriend, who placed his chin on Logan's shoulder. "Happy birthday my love." It didn't take long before Roman and (a hesitant) Virgil joined the group hug.

They spend the night watching all of Logan's favourite movies and documentaries while chatting in their pyjamas and eating the backed goods Patton ("and Roman!") had made.

A few hours after midnight, Logan looked around at his roommates. Virgil had fallen asleep after the fifth movie. His friend leaned against Roman's shoulder while using his arm as a teddy bear. Speaking of Roman, it hadn't taken long for him to follow Virgil. His head leaned on Virgil's and he snorted a bit, making Logan chuckle. Last but not least he turned to look at Patton. Beautiful Patton, who was curled up against Logan's chest, breathing softly. He had fallen asleep a few minutes ago after tiredly mumbling about how amazing Logan was and how his hair always looked so cute and how Patton could spend hours just watching him reading 'because you are so adorable Logibear! I love listening to you!' Logan had kissed his boyfriend's forehead before softly thanking him.

Yeay, Logan truly was the luckiest men alive. He had his two best friends and his adorable boyfriend who he hoped to spend many more birthdays with. He let out a quiet yawn before closing his eyes, snuggling closer to Patton, and soflty drifting away.

Im not familiar enough with the fandom to know ships but pick a riddler u wanna ramble about the most and give me that sweet ship content (platonic or romantic)

I HAVE NO SELF CONTROL SO IM GUNNA DO 2: SCRIDDLER AND CURIOUS MEDIC

CuriousMedic in green

Scriddler in orange

-who cries when someone dies in a movie

Shepherd. She cries at everything. All the time. Even at not sad movies. Riddler def cried during Wall-e though.

No one usually. Neither will admit to being genuinely upset and disturbed by sad horror movies like Lake mungo but its safe to say they didnt really sleep that night.

-who wears the ugly holiday garb

Neither, no one likes christmas that much and both are usually stylishly dressed.

Jonathan. He likes to wear ugly sweaters year round. He has a load of them for all different holidays but obviously the halloween ones are his favorite. He has definitely made edward wear them too.

-who pays for the meals

Both. Edward does more dates and fancy restaurants, shep does more coffee, treats and takeaway.

Usually riddler. Jon “forgets” his wallet a lot. When its his turn to pay there is a lot of dining and dashing. Which would be fine but riddler hates running. He usually just pays after jon leaves.

-who slams the oven door and who plays the trombone

Shep slams the door, riddler plays the trombone.

Jonathan does both to annoy edward.

-who brings home stray animals

Both are equally bad for this. Shep brings home weird animals that make you think she’s stolen them from the zoo, edward brings home a lot of stray cats although they usually wind up with selina.

Its actually jon but only because he needs test subjects. If he cant find any he might use riddler. Edward will usually rescue the animals and send them back outside. Not out of some great morality, he just hates the sound of barking and meowing.

-who leaves the bathroom door open

Theyre both VERY particular about privacy so neither. Unless theyre both in there at the same time ;)

Jonathan leaves every door in the house open. It really annoys edward, since he’s always cold. Not only does he have to watch the straw man piss every time he goes past but now he’s bleeding heating money too.

-who tells the ‘dad jokes’

Do dad riddles count? Its fine, shep usually joins in when ed starts.

JONATHAN WILL NOT STOP WILL THE DAD JOKES. No man no god can make him give over when he’s on a roll.

-who wants kids more

NEITHER THEY BOTH HATE KIDS. although they are both great around other peoples kids. Defacto rogues babysitters.

Again, neither. They have a small soft spot for kids, will usually avoid endangering them with their schemes and usually humor them if a kid was to come up to them, curious, while they were in full riddler or scarecrow garb

-who travels more

Hmm. Riddler travels more often, for pleasure but shep travels the furthest usually for business.

Hmm. well riddler goes farther afield but jon is up and down to georgia fairly often. He preferes to drive too which riddler absolutely hates.

-who spends more cash

Shep spends most on other people, riddler spends the most oh himself.

Edward. Jonathan is a bit of a skinflint. Not like he HAS much money in the first place, no wonder hes reluctant to spend it.

-who buys the things in infomercials

Riddler has no impulse control at 2am.

Again, riddler. But scarecrow actually likes watching dumb infomercials when he cant sleep. Its like popcorn fodder for the insomnia brain.

-who draws in the dust on their cars

Riddler likes to write riddles in the dust.

Both. sometimes they like to leave little messages for one another on the back of jons truck. Riddlers car is far too clean for writing in the dirt.maybe writing WITH dirt.

-who starts the snowball fights

Shep, every time. Riddler is terrible at it but he’s good to have on team fights, he’s an excellent snow fort builder.

Is it still a snowball fight if all scarecrow does is get a bucket of snow and dump it on riddlers head while he’s sleeping?

-who throws away the directions to things

Riddler. He thinks he knows better and he’s USUALLY right. Shep is usually the one to go dig them out of the trash again.

I dont think Jon has ever thrown away anything in his life. Hes still got the instructions for a vhs recorder from 1993.

-who puts up holiday decor

Shep. she likes to put up halloween decorations on the first day of october.

I would say jonathan but he doesnt enjoy it persay. He does it because it needs doing for him to feel at home. Halloween is the exception, he loves doing the decor for halloween. It gets more and more outlandish every year.

-who is more likely to forget to bathe

Riddler. Shep likes to shower every morning. Sometimes she makes him come in there with her. Sometimes.

When theyre in a manic planning phase, theyre both equally bad at things like bathing and eating. Jon has definitely gone longer without both than riddler.

-who gets more obsessed about things

Edward wouldnt be Edward if he wasnt an obsessive nerd. Shep can hyperfocus on things for a while but its never so all consuming as edwards obsessions.

Im going to say riddler BUT scarecrow isnt far behind. Jons obsessions tend to be a little...healthier? Less detrimental to ones health? He obsesses over halloween and certain literature, which i think youll agree, is much less likely to get him punched in the face by a bat themed superhero.

-who sings in the shower more often

Shep sings louder and more often but if you press your ear to the door sometimes you can hear edward singing a little ditty.

Jon sings a lot and actually quite well, but usually when he thinks people cant hear him, he’s too embarrassed to sing in front of people. Unfortunately for him, Riddler has excellent hearing.

A/N: obviously this is a little but Modern! AU because theatre wouldve been the thing back then, so a lil future seb for you all!

Day 11- Holiday film

Pairing: Sebastian x reader

You could not believe what you were hearing right now. Obviously the situation wasnt as serious as you were making it out to be, but this man was a demon who was centuries old and he had yet to watch one singular holiday film.

“y/n i simply dont have the time i dont understand what you’re not grasping” he states simply.

“Its something everyone does, its fun” You scoff and roll your eyes, of course he didnt get why it was a big deal, well if he didnt get it you’d help him see. Sebastian crosses his arms and frowns, mumbling about not being fun and never having time.

“Well this afternoon you will have time” he opens his mouth to speak “and dont try to back out because i know you have the afternoon off”. He thinks and whilst he does you drive it home “just one film seb, please” he eyes you for a second before sighing and agreeing.

You spend all of your midday rushing around finding comfy blankets and the perfect film, not that this will matter to Sebastian. He will appreciate the effort you went through but he doesnt care about the actual comfort that comes from fluffy blankets.

“finally set up?” sebastian questions as he walks into your room. It was extremely nice working for a rich brat sometimes, especially when it came to your own room.

“yes its all perfect now come” you pat the bed next to you as you get comfortable. He walks over with that very predatory look in his eyes and you have to laugh.

“dont even try pulling your moves on me michaelis, you’re not getting out of this plus youll life this film i promise” you smirk to yourself as you catch his slight pout out of the corner of your eye.

He takes off his shoes and jacket before letting you cuddle into him as the film starts. You chose a classic Halloween film, you’d thought staring with a gory film that links to halloween would get seb to eventually come around to christmas films. He was so going to love The Grinch but that could wait for another time.

“thats not how you kill them, idiot” he huffs as he lets his hand wander up and down your back.

“something to say babe?” you hum and smile as he averts his eyes back to the tv, he hates admitting to being wrong.

The film goes on and Sebastian gets into all the horror and killing of it all. You hadnt actually thought hed respond so well but you were definitely glad he had. As soon as the film ends Sebastian speaks up.

“So every year instead of going out you watch Halloween films, like this?” His bluntness about you not going out to celebrate has you flushing lightly, you are however used to the actual bluntness at this point.

“Yes, i get it, i dont go out, stop making fun im trying to show you so-” he cuts you off and shakes his head lightly, teasingly and chuckles.

“No i meant, if you humans do this all the time, there are more films like this one, yes?” He,,, actually wanted to watch more. Nodding eagerly you get up from the bed and pick out a few more classicly old slashers and horrors.

“Theres way more, if you wanted to admit i was right you only had to say” you puff out your chest and smirk to yourself and Sebastian laughs. Hed pouted at first before seeing how proud of yourself you were and it made him chuckle.

“Hmm yes i guess you were right, this is fun” you cheer and giggle as you grab another film. He did have the afternoon off after all, you were going to show him all the Halloween films you possibly could before he changed his mind
