okay so I’ve really been thinking about tommy calling buck evan (irrationally thinking about it idk why it’s bothering me) bc why are they doing that? there has to be a reason bc I’d say all his past love interests have called him buck with maybe the odd evan thrown in there when the moment is serious. and technically we don’t get to see tommy and buck’s first interaction on screen bc they’re already in the helicopter when we first see them. and I was thinking chim would’ve obviously introduced eddie and buck to tommy and I would guess he would’ve said “hey this is eddie and this is buck” since that’s what they go by. like he wouldn’t use their government names lool. and then through out the helicopter journey everyone only referred to buck as buck so tommy know’s everyone calls him buck. like at this point does he even know his real name? I would guess not since everyone’s calling him buck. and then I was thinking when buck called tommy to set up the tour he most definitely introduced himself as “buck” since again, everyone was referring to him as “buck” on the helicopter. UNLESS buck said “hey Tommy it’s Evan Buckley - buck from the helipcopter…” BUT even then, it just doesn’t make sense why he’s calling him evan. like when eddie comes to the hangar, eddie calls him “buck” but again, they make it a point to have tommy call him Evan even after that. and they do this all the way through out the episode even though everyone else is calling him buck in the same moments!!! so why is tommy insisting on using his government name?! like ik he called chim “howie” but that makes sense since tommy knew chim as howie but with buck, he met him as buck!!! not as evan !! AND he’s calling Eddie “Eddie” and not edmundo so it’s clearly not that he doesn’t like nicknames Lmao. AND also, I find it weird that buck doesn’t correct him? like I dunno I just feel like he would? he’s corrected his parents in the past and when chim called him evan that one time he was like ???? and again, I understand he’s a love interest but his past LI’s didn’t even call him evan like that yet they had tommy drop evan like 50 times and for what??? has to be something right? I’m trying to think what exactly is could be but my best guess is the name thing will come up on the date or at some point and buck will tell tommy the origin of “buck” and why he isn’t called evan commonly and then maybe tommy will switch to buck?? Or maybe buck with let him call him evan ??? Idk but yeah the Evan thing has been keeping me up at night LOL pls help
big fan of how you went on such a journey there and didnt come to a conclusion because relatble. heres where my head is at personally and stick with me because im gonna start in a strange place
so this show isnt a stranger to name symbolism, natalia literally means birth or rebirth. so buck dating the girl whos name means fresh start after he DIES makes sense, but in a sort of insane irony way i think the death of that relationship was actually supoosed to be the "rebirth" in a sense
and since hes being given this "clean slate" (to throw us back to the last breakup because bucktaylor breakup is literally one of my fav scenes ever) theyre starting us off in a territory we've never been in by showing us through the most prominent symbolism possible. this one seems different because it IS different, and heres one thing this LI is doing that no other LI did, just to prove it.
I do think the other effect of this choice though is that is DOES make us uncomfortable. thats not a name that gets thrown around lightly so to hear it roll off someones tongue like its an everyday occurance rightfully makes us a little apprehensive. I think it could be a clever storytelling technique so as to say this is something that seems looks and feels really good on the surface, but they are throwing in that one little element that provides us with a little unease so that we dont get too comfortable sitting here.

HEY IM REWATCHING SOME HLVRAI RELATED MEDIA!!
in episode 3 and the end a lot of characters teleport in and out of the map/dissappear and reappear (bubby does this 2 times i believe, each time with a scared reaction. Forzen also disappears and does not return.) I think its either gman purposefully teleporting characters away (ex: forzen stole his sons dog, he’d probably be mad) or the map is deteriorating so much that characters just start to get teleported occasionally (bubby and dr coomer also glitch out with the scientist dialogue in the end, as well as the timeline thing from benrey.)
Bubby gets teleported to the edge of the map and sees the fucked up skybox and now he understands
Gordon also makes a comment that’s something like “why am i so different from you guys” in the 3rd episode, which makes me think that the map has deteriorated or been broken so much that the player can’t even remember who they are.
the passports could be important assets to benrey, thinking like the load bearing coconut from tf2. like without them he literally cannot function. thats why he wants passports !
The characters dont know gordon isnt the players real name. dr coomer says this in hos speech. the gnome calls him gordon. but knows its a stream. what does this MEAN
ok. gabe says hes had nightmares because of this fucking ancient tablet that makes the games so profitable . i think this tablet somehow helped give the ai sentience right? super profitable and cool!
because gabe goes into work when the nightmares stop i think that hints that someone showed up on the computer. cos thats what hes working on. or possibly, an employee…
Gnome also says Gordon is in a nightmare during the forest.
I have no ideas for the movie at the end. But the gnome sits in tommy’s seat. and its the same movie theater. I dont know who “her” is, my guess is its alyx since gordon/the player might be like. possessing her somewhat? Besides that I think the things Peppa Pig mentions will be relevant later. Sea of mud=memory loss uh oh
ALSO THE GNOMES TEXT TURNS GREEN FOR A MOMENT??? IN THE FOREST SCENE???? HUH????
and finally, my personal headcannons
the gnome says something in the end that kind of backs uo my memory reset idea. he mentions how he doesn’t want to lose his memories and gordon says he wont let him forget. If gordon were to “place his headset on the dirty floor” like gabe newell says, hed be turning off the game, shutting it down and resetting the ai. but he doesnt.
thats why i like the headcannon that memories and models switch around every time. from an outside perspective it would be a fun opportunity for bits as characters slowly regain their memory of what happened. From an insider perspective valve would’ve amde it like that so the game is still fun and fresh.
Hlvrai2 where peppa pig turns into alyx and fucking KILLS grodon. WHAT!!!

Wet Part 2
Find Part One: here
Summary: Steve is dedicated to making things right with you, though he doesnt realize he wants to emerge as more than friends
Warnings: Cursing, use of y/n, implied f reader ( if i messed up w prnouns, same as last time PLS LET ME KNOW), unedited, shitty ending, fighting, alcohol use, unedited asf
———————————
“Okay. We need to talk” Steve had a stern look on his face as he spoke to the girl in front of him.
“Do we though?” Not only was she making him nervous, but she was making the task impossibly difficult for him.
“Yes. I want to start with saying im so-“
“Youre sorry? Really Harrington, thats bullshit you just want to get in my pants” She said, oh so obviously holding back a laugh.
“Robin i swear to god.” Okay, In his defense, Robin did basically force him to participate in this practice argument with him.
“What? You we’re kind of a slut last time you saw her.” Ouch.. he thought. But it was true. Steve most definitely had not been known for his great reputation at ‘boyfriend’.
He was going to suggest that they try again, but before he could speak there was a slight tap on her window before Margo came tumbling into the room.
“BIRDIE! And Steve,” She glared over at him, “I think i left my drumsticks here yesterday, have you seen them? We kind of have a gig at Tommy Hagens pool party and the drummer just might need her drumsticks. Itd be kind of hard to back up Y/ns vocals if i didnt have them, I mean shes really good and has great projection, but she needs something to-“ If it wasnt obvious, Margo and Robin have the same rambling habit.
“Desk, ill be ready in a few. You going to Hagens party too Steven?” Robin asked, hopping off of her bed to help the latter in her search. She knew of Steves history of the boy, but she also knew that he wanted to be financially stable when he was older; and Steves father had made it pretty clear that if Steve cut off his connections, hed be left in the dust for real this time.
“Stop ‘full naming’ me asshole. But yeah I kinda have to. Didnt know you guys had a gig there, though .”
“Must’ve slipped my mind.,” Margo shrugged, but her and Robin gave each other a look that low key freaked Steve out, “Just hurry and go get ready and uh remember what we talked about. Thank you for m’ sticks Birdie, Im out.” Margo kissed Robin on the cheek, and crawled back out of the window less than elegantly. Who was going to tell her Robins parents were out on a couples retreat this week, and that there was no need to crawl out of the window? Not him thats for sure- No fucking way willingly hed sit through another five minutes of their sickening cuteness.
“You should go now too Dingus, party remember? Go get dressed, pick me up in an hour. Well go, have fun, get drunk, talk to Y/n/n. You know like in the good old days” She smiled, like she was up to something, pushing him out of the room slightly.
“The good old days? Really?” Steve was mildly unamused, but left the house all the same. Maybe getting a drink or two in him wouldnt be all that bad, Tommys parties were usually unorganized and chaotic, so he might not even run into Y/n. You know, when shes not on the big ass stage he knows Tommy rented, “just for her.”
———————————————————————
“Margs have you seen my glasses?” You called down from the stage, while Margo maneuvered herself around the few people that arrived early, in search of a beer, or like a caprisun or something. She had range.
“Gave em to Ajax” She yelled, still searching. Before you could turn around and look for the bassist, the glasses flew at you like a paper airplane. You were just barely able to catch them.
“Told you i could throw them up there, you immature ass.” Ajax muttered to Jonathan.
“I wasnt doubting you, dickwad. It was a statement.” Jonathan seemed to enjoy going to the parties where there would be a band playing, especially yours. Anyone else would think he just goes to get a glimpse up your skirt, but to anyone that knew him, it was clear he wanted practice for his future job of photographing rock bands. It was a diverse group of people you hung out with, really.
“Hey Henderson!” You looked up to see Tommy Hagen, the one throwing this party, waving at you from atop the diving board. Once you two made eye contact, he tried- really tried- to impress you with a jump. And it wouldve worked, if when he was about to jump in, a football didnt hit him in the ribs.
“OH SHIT-“ You exclaimed through a laugh, still glad to see that Tommy was able to resurface without needing CPR from Jason Carver.
“Oops-“ Ajax mumbled, as he and Jonathan slinked away together, laughing under their breaths. You shook your head in amusement, before placing the glasses on your head, and bending down to finish setting up the amps.
In no way were you into Tommy Hagen. He was an asshole, and it was pretty obvious that he thought of you as an accomplishment to add to his mental trophy case. Though, itd been a while since someone tried to impress you like that. Not who I wanted to have jumped into a 8 foot pool for me today. You thought, nearly laughing out loud at your own thoughts. HAH, scratch that. I bet he doesnt even remember we dated.
————————————————————————
“We’re late because of you, i hope you know that” Steve mumbled at the girl who was currently holding onto his arm for dear life. Robin enjoyed coming to these things sure, but she needed someone to hold onto in these crowds.
“Its not my fault, I swear. It was in my little green notebook except i think i left it in my overalls at my dad’s house, but the overalls were in my closet at my moms house so i was really really confused and then you came and i didn’t- HEY MARGO! Later Dingus.” Robins rant this time was about how they were thirty minutes late because she couldnt find the paper she wrote Margos favorite color down on. Sickening cuteness, he thought to himself.
Steve looked over at the stage that had been set up in the Hagens massive backyard, to see Ajax up there tuning his bass guitar, and Margo was off somewhere with Robin, but he couldnt see you anywhere. You know, until he did.
You were off by the punch bowl, looking slightly uncomfortable, in the way that nobody but someone whos memorized the way you smile when youre happy would notice. With Tommy Hagen.
—————————————
“Oh yeah, I mean, I leave sometime next week, so i dont think ill be able to make it.” You murmured, slightly annoyed that he wasnt getting the hint. Or that he didnt want to.
“Oh well thats alright princess,” you winced slightly at the nickname, “We can move it to tomorrow if youre free.” He smiled widely, raising his eyebrows as he waited for your response. Before you could turn him down, he spoke again. “Well look who showed, Steve Harrington, everybody. Did you know he was gonna be here princess? I didnt think hed actually show, you know hes kind of a wuss.” Tommy spoke loudly as Steve approached him, in an attempt to draw a crowd. One that worked.
“Oh come on, Tommy knock it off.” You said, trying to dissipate the situation before anyone did anything stupid. Steve and Tommy didnt have the greatest track record when it came to these things.
“Shut it, Hagen. Youre making her uncomfortable, knock it the hell off.” Steve said sternly, stopping a few feet from Tommy.
“Oh and you would know? I mean you guys dated for what a few months, before you dropped her for little miss perfect. Come on man you barely even know the girl, let alone what makes her uncomfortable. Hell i bet you dont even know what makes her comfortable, you know what really riles her up. Do ya Harr-“
Oh my fucking god.
“STOP GUYS STOP WHAT THE HELL- STEVE GET OFF OF HIM WHAT THE FUCK” You were yelling before you could even process what was going on. Steve was beating the absolute shit out of Tommy.
“DINGUS GET OFF OF HIM JESUS CHRIST” Now Robin was joined in on your yelling, along with the majority of the partygoers chanting ‘Fight Fight Fight’ or the occasional ‘Beat his ass Tommy’ and ‘Fuck him up Harrington.’
What the hell did he think he was trying to accomplish here
It wasnt long before the fight was broken up, Steve winning by a long shot, though he was definitely fucked up. You couldnt help the pang of pride you felt for him in your chest though, because according to Dustin filling you in on everything you missed upside down wise, this was the first fight hes won against a human since Starcourt.
It was still a pain in the ass to drag him to your car.
————————————-
Steve woke up to the soft sound of strumming in the next room over. He wasnt really sure of what the hell was going on, until he tried to stand up, and was hit with a horrible pounding in his head, and suddenly all his wounds felt fresh again. Though, technically they were still fresh . It had only been forty five minutes.
He kept a hand on his head, because he felt it was the only thing keeping him from passing out, and padded his way out of his room and into the guest room.
There, he found you singing.
‘You adored me before, oh my good looking boy.’ You sung, softly strumming, while still blissfully unaware Steve had woken up.
You were still wearing the makeup from earlier, purples and navy blues covering your face, to match the bands theme. Your hair was still styled like how it was in the video from the other day. You looked beautiful. Even if you were so clearly stressed out by Steves actions.
‘The skyline falls as I try to make sense of it AGH-“ Now you were aware of his presence. Steve winced at the loud noise, and you apologized quietly, placing your guitar on the guest bed.
“Did i wake you up?” You asked looking up at him as he stood against the door frame, still cradling his head with one hand.
“No, no, you didnt. Woke up on m’ own” He mumbled.
“Good. Now i get to me mad. What the hell were you thinking earlier Steve. That was fucking stupid, Tommy couldve gotten seriously injured, and so could you.” You scolded, grabbing his wrist harshly and dragged him to the bathroom.
“He was being a dick, he deserved it.” He said, as you pushed him against the counter until he got the hint to sit down.
“Move your legs really quick… And youve been a total dick recently, I havent beat the shit out of you.” You reached under the sink for the first aid kit, before standing back up and placing it on the counter next to Steves thigh.
“What do you mean Ive been a dick?” His eyebrows scrunched together when you started laughing. Because of course hed been a dick. Itd been four years, and he was still ignoring you like a twelve year old.
“Okay, okay, that was my bad. I have been a dick.”
“Clearly.” You smiled sweetly at him, before using the towel youd wet as you spoke to wipe the dry blood off of his face.
“Can I ask you something, Steve?”
“Yeah. Go ahead” He was thinking you were just going to ask what he was thinking when he hit Tommy, or something along those lines. Definitely not,
“Why did you break up with me?” He looked at you, straight into your eyes. He could tell, just by looking at you, that you were just curious. No tears, no annoyance, just pure curiosity.
“Honestly?,” You nodded slowly, “I couldnt deal. I mean I wasn’t exactly boyfriend of the century back then. You made me feel.. Light? In a way. Like I didnt have to worry about graduating, or getting a shitty job working for my dad, hell or even what people thought about me. I mean, my girlfriend was going to be a rockstar, “He smiled at you, “But i couldnt go through with it. None of it. I guess I was scared, and Nancy was the safest option, you know? Little miss perfect, is that was Tommy said? Yeah thats what I thought back then too. Its stupid i know, but it was safe.” Steve was looking at you, and the small smile on your face, and he couldnt help but laugh a little. “What-“ He laughed a little more, causing you to join in.
“Wait can i- sorry- Can i clean your cuts first? So you dont double hate me after this?” You said through a fit of laughter, reaching for the first aid kit again.
“Yeah, yeah go ahead.” He said, calming down a little in anticipation for the pain.
“Sorry sorry sorry-“ You said as he hissed in pain, eyes closed, with his head leaning into your hand.
“Its all good. ‘S all goodd” He said, looking up at you once more.
“Anyway. I was laughing because youre a total fucking idiot, Steve Harrington. I mean you just beat up Tommy Hagen at his own party, halfway through one of my gigs. Youre still best friends with my little brother, despite avoiding me for the last four years, and youve yet to try and embarrass me for writing songs about you. Youve changed Steve. Its freaky, if im being honest”
“You write songs about me?” He asked. Robin had told him that youd done it before, but he always just assumed they were old songs. From before.
“.. You didnt know?” Now your once curious, calm features, were nothing but pure panic.
“No?? I thought maybe youd met someone in LA, you know?”
“And it doesnt bother you? Like at all”
“I mean i kinda wish you told me, then i couldve asked this three years ago,” He chuckled lowly, grabbing the wrist of the hand that was holding his face lightly, “Can i, uh, could i ki-“ Before he could finish, he was cut off by your lips pressing against his. It tasted like your chapstick, strawberry flavored just as he remembered, and the punch from earlier, still tinged with a but of alcohol. You pulled away for air after a few moments, and the shocked look on Steves face kinda freaked you out.
“Sorry- Shouldnt have cut you off. Thats like, thats my ba-“ This time he cut you off, cupping your cheeks and lightly pulling you toward him.
“Dont be sorry. I should be sorry, I was going to start with sorry, but Robin said it would sound insincere or whatever” He murmured against your lips, causing you to laugh a little.
“I mean you were the one who suggested we kiss- Come on Steve, be better” You scolded mockingly.
“Yeah, yeah. But uh maybe we should tell her and Margo to stop, like plotting either our demise or our like borderline reconciliation-“ He laughed a bit, because it was so, so obvious that was their main goal in life then.
“Borderline? You are really bad at this, Harrington.” You laughed some more, placing a light kiss to his nose.
“Oh shut up, I know you missed me” He said, wrapping his arms around your waist.
“Definitely”

tlou tv show thots (under a cut for spoilers):
GOOD: sarah opening section 11/10. absolutely brutal to put things in her pov for an extended section and then have her be the one who died. i thought you know ive seen this a zillion times it wont get me! but it got me. also like. the rising dread with the coughing and people showing symptoms because you know and she doesn't?? ooouuggghhhh
GOOD: tommy hot. sorry it must be said
GOOD: the thing with the blurry old lady scared the shit out of me. i got like horror movie scared
BAD: don't like the tendrils. apparently they are using these instead of spores and there's no biting off chunks of people anymore. they look like vampires drinking blood. really loses something imo
BAD: again, i was constantly anxious about no gas masks. AIRBORNE PANDEMIC AND NO MASKS? you all deserve to get eaten by zombies
GOOD: the 60s show set at the beginning. when they said that thing about the earth getting warmer CAUSING IT i nearly spat out my dinner. like legit screamed. that was the scariest part of the whole show. some jerkoff in 68 going well what if for some weird reason the earth became warmer? then cordyceps could be real. FUCK YOOOUUU
BAD: the exposition. it wasn't like. THAT bad but it got a little annoying. especially when the characters pointedly called each other by name to introduce each other lol. be more subtle
BAD: some of the edginess was a little over-the-top. why a plane crash instead of a car crash? why the big production about the public execution? you don't need big shit like that to shock audiences. tlou is a thing built on subtlety. let it breathe
MIXED: i wish tess had gotten to shoot robert bc that's so cool and fun and sexy of her but i understood why they sped through it. he truly is just the tutorial
MIXED: joel looking for tommy??? i feel like this really glosses over the "this ain't boston lay your hands on me again and i'll fuck you up" thing. why is tommy even still hanging out with him. it's good shorthand for the whole thing with the car battery i GUESS but like :/
GOOD: ellie and joel are both perfectly cast. ellie's potty mouth and joel's gruffness are both perfect. also i LOOOVE that marlene's VA gets to play her irl too i love when they do that shit. she is so beautiful as well it must be said
GOOD: radio smuggler's code. i love how quick ellie figured it out and i loved ending on funky 80s music. was not expecting that at ALL
BAD: ik a tv show can't throw you directly into the action the way a game would, but some of the pacing felt absolutely GLACIAL. i feel like what they were doing was worldbuilding maybe but then why rush through the robert section? even the sarah section was just the teensiest tiniest bit too long. this was an hour and 20 minutes. let's trim some of this down, people!!
GOOD: marlene like you don't have a fuckin ear on your fuckin head kim. so true she literally doesn't. i feel like tlou the game relies on ellie for most of its comic relief and since she wasn't in most of the episode they had to find it in other ways but they did and thats good
BAD: ellie wasn't in most of the ep??
GOOD: they had my tilted building which i love sooo much. i hope they go in it next week
anyway don't let this post fool you while i did have a few notes i mostly had a great time. ABSOLUTELY relieved let me tell you

Alright, look. Because of the truly exorbitant amount of Bucky/Sebastian Stan content I put on this blog I'm gonna make one post re: the most recent controversy because I feel it important to do so. Just bc I like him and the character he plays in the MCU does NOT mean I think he's immune to criticism. That said, reblogs and replies are turned off because I'm saying my one piece on the matter and have been having a string of real, genuine good days recently which even on meds doesn't happen often and I don't owe a single one of you on either side of this my mental health over a subject matter I really just don't want in my head any longer than it needs to be in there tbh
Also I'm doing this in bullet points bc that makes sense in my head and also am on mobile so can't put a read more on here so I'm sorry in advance for the wall of text. Without any further ado, let's unpack this.
Full disclosure: I am a 23 year old individual who did watch the series not knowing until after that it was made without Pamela's consent, only watched it bc Seb was in it, and was only tangentially aware of who the titular characters were (like I knew Baywatch and Motley Crüe and had heard Pamela's name before but like I knew nothing about any of it). I was born like 2 years after everything with the tape in question went down and really knew nothing about the situation with it. Thats not me trying to defend anything, I'm just laying everything out ahead of what I'm about to say.
So like most people at this point I read his insta post and I personally, GENUINELY think he did write it with the best of intentions. I don't think he was trying to be outwardly malicious or drag Pamela into it or invite harassment of her or anyone tbh. And like, dude got nominated for an Emmy, odds are he probably wrote it the midst of or coming off of a lot of excitement and probably wasn't thinking clearly. God knows I wouldn't be if I was in that situation
HOWEVER
This is NOT me excusing it as "well we all say dumb shit sometimes". Because that would be bad imo. Actors are not infallible or immune to criticism just because I like them imo. I'm currently going through a similar thing with my feelings on John Mulaney but that's a rant for another day and another blog.
Like I said, I don't think his intentions were anything other than good, and that he was trying to be genuine
That said I am a firm believer in the idea the Road to Hell is paved with good intentions, and that when you are a part of that you do need to own up to it.
His tagging Pamela (and Tommy for that matter, but for different reasons) was definitely a bad move, and the post overall read as extremely tone deaf. Like. Royally so.
And I definitely think the response to it, while a little harsh in some cases, isn't undeserved. What he said was a bad take and really poorly worded, and he needs to be called out
And I do hope he addresses it and apologizes in a meaningful way and does some introspection. But also I know there is a crowd that no matter what he does they'll say it's not good enough because there always is.
And that's NOT me saying every time a celebrity apologizes and people say it's not good enough it's undeserved (if I had a nickel for every Notes App Apology™️ one has made that was DEFINITELY not enough I could pay off my student loans)
And it's a valid take, people can do what they want. I don't expect to sway anybody.
But also I dunno. I don't think he's exempt or immune from criticism because he's famous or my celebrity crush or anything like that and I do think he needs to be held accountable for what he said and needs to address the backlash
But also he is a human being and human beings fuck up sometimes.
Both of these things can be true and not cancel out the other imo.
I do think the 'if you still support him you support abusers and seb needs to be blacklisted in Hollywood' takes are a little fuckin much honestly
But also the fans who are just sweeping this under the rug and dismissing it as 'everyone hating for no reason' also need to take a long hard look at it because what he said is kinda messed up seeing as he was talking about consent and exploitation whilst profiting off of a show made without consent about a victim of exploitation is Not Great
And like. You can like someone and acknowledge that they did a shit thing. These 2 things can coexist.
But also this isn't me trying to be some faux intellectual claiming moral superiority because I'm in the gray area or anything
I'm a Literally a 23 year old barely out of college person on the internet with limited life experience who likes the MCU and majored in theatre, I'm not going to pretend I'm some final authority or expert on this
I'm just one (1) person saying I see both sides but also maybe both sides need to calm down a bit
I know I'm just a drop in the ocean of discourse and I'm fine with that
Basically tl;dr: I think what Sebastian said and that he tagged Pamela was messed up and Hope he apologizes in a meaningful way but also know that means different things to different people, I am the farthest thing from an authority figure on the situation and just decided I wanted to say at least something based on the content of my blog.
I'm never sure how to end of of these but this is the end

🖍️, ❤️, ✖️!! (for the ask game!! your choice of which :D)
(answering all of these for patton [💙🐶], slime [🧪🎰], phantombur [🪶🧿], starlight glimmer [✨🔮], and terezi [⚖️🍒])
🖍️- what hobbies or activities make you think of your kin? 💙🐶: baking! also making bracelets, since we all had lil matching bracelets i made for us :D 🧪🎰: arcades. anything to do with them. i would work the casino on occasion but i mostly worked the arcade bc despite being like thousands of years old i was still a juvenile by slime standards and quackity preferred not to have minors working in the casino if he could help it. and either way my closest friends were fundy and purpled and they were also minors and that way we all got to hang out more :D we would get up to so much silly business while on the clock 🪶🧿: i would do a lot of like hands on, repetitive tasks like organizing things and crafting and enchanting and potion making and whatnot to keep me grounded (bc fun fact being a ghost makes it surprisingly easy to dissociate esp when thats something you already struggle with.) obviously i cant do a lot of those things now irl but like. sometimes little tasks like that remind me of this tl. esp if they fit that pretty romanticized dark academia aesthetic. like i got a wax seal kit for christmas and tried it out and. definitely very phantombur 🔮✨: i very much had a hyperfix/spin/what have you in magic as starlight and now sometimes when i watch clips/episodes of mlp that im not in where they're doing magic ill be like "why did they do it like that, they could have used this spell, and done that in this way, and-" i also instinctively like only ever call the mane six by like nicknames/petnames and im pretty sure its bc of this tl ⚖️🍒: deep diving into certain tags/communities on tumblr. all the trolls were very active on tumblr, that was how we met and talked and everything, and it just makes me nostalgic
❤️ - what's your favorite memory from this kin? 💙🐶: i mean our movie nights where we'd all cuddle on the couch were pretty nice. rlly any of our cute sappy domestic moments could take this spot. but one more distinct memory that jumps to mind is you comforting me after svsr and finishing making the cookies that i tried to stress bake and then getting to share them with u :D 🧪🎰: im torn between a few options that go from less to more sappy. first option is just the shenanigans we'd get up to in las nevadas. mostly me, purpled, and fundy, but sometimes foolish and very rarely even quackity would join in. we invented a card game using a gigantic combined deck of playing cards, uno cards, pokemon cards, etc and had a huge ever changing 3 ring binder with all the rules of the game written out in it. i wish i could remember all the rules but it was so much fun. option two: in hindsight it was definitely bc he got tired of me constantly asking him questions, but q told me that whenever i had a question i should remember it and save it for later and then once a week while we were doing chores and stuff id get to ask him all my questions. a lot of the time it was just silly stuff, but sometimes we'd get real deep. final option, just a tiny little snapshot, but one time q was making like some sort of apple dessert and he was cutting up little apple slices and purpled and fundy and i were all sitting on the opposite side of the counter begging for appy slices and scraps and he'd occasionally throw them to us and at one point fundy caught one in his mouth and we all got so hyped and quackity got all proud of him and called him like some sort of a sweet name in spanish that i do not remember and it was just a rlly nice moment. 🪶🧿: strawberry picking with tommy. i was barely even doing any of the work, i just sat and watched him and chatted with him for a while. it just really sticks out in my head. it was such a nice day out, and i just always loved to see him so happy and excited. i really saw myself in him, he was like the person i never got to be. i never would have told him any of that, and when he realized i wasn't helping we play argued for a while, as siblings do. but still. love that guy 🔮✨: traveling with trixie on her lil traveling magic caravan. sometimes we got on each others nerves bc it was very close quarters but it was also a lot of fun. sometimes for hours it'd just be the two of us with nothing but each other's company and time to kill. we'd have the most silly and pointless conversation, scream-sing, and have an insanely deep 2am thoughts sort of conversation all in the span of an hour. like a sleepover on steroids ⚖️🍒: i think probably just hanging out on the meteor. it was a long ass time but we had a lot of fun. it was rlly cool to finally see some of the beta kids in person! i dont have a whole lot of like solid memories from this tl so i couldnt pinpoint one moment but that whole experience was real fun.
✖️ - what details about this kin, if any, are really different from canon? 💙🐶: this one was generally fairly canon compliant aside from the fact that the sides were all in a polycule (aside from roman and remus dating each other ofc.) little bits of it that align more with fanon than explicit canon as well, but generally not too far off. 🧪🎰: i think not super contradictory to canon, just with a lot of details filled in? i honestly forget a lot of the exact details of canon bc like i watched it a while ago and i probably missed a few streams and things just get muddy between canon and kin memories. but i feel like the friendship between me, purp, and fundy was a lot less focused on if it was really featured at all. also my whole "post canon" storyline that i know happened but try not to think abt bc i know it has a bunch of noncanon characters and if i let myself remember them i will miss them and be sad. oh also i remember a fuckton of info abt like slime biology and culture and whatnot that doesnt go against canon (and in fact sometimes lines up shockingly well) but also wasnt explicitly shown. 🪶🧿: origins is already pretty freeform, but my tl had even less of like a "storyline" or any big plot events and was pretty much just us all hanging out. also the server resets i think were canon? bc i feel like i have memories of buildings/the world from both s1 and s3. i think i was like involved in the reset and then purposefully wiped my memory of it. which would explain why i cant remember jack shit abt it. no clue tho. once again mostly just a lot of added details that arent strictly contradictory to canon. 🔮✨: i was for sure dating trixie and twilight, queerplatonic with sunburst, and maybe queerplatonic with sunset? i was possibly also in some sort of non platonic relationship w the rest of the mane six. idk man those horses got around. also my backstory was a bit different. or like. if i had the same backstory in canon i did a real shit job explaining it. my whole thing with cutie marks was a bit deeper than just "oh no my friend got their cutie mark before me im so sad im gonna go invent communism D:" growing up my mom saw me starting to get an interest in magic and was all like "no dont waste your time with that, that stuffs all frivilous, how would you ever be successful and make a living like that, etc etc" sorta like how ppl are abt ppl who wanna go into art as a career sometimes. and like hearing that and spending all that time trying to get myself to like and be happy in something else and find a better, "normal" passion that my mom would approve of and then turning around and seeing sunburst getting to pursue it and getting his cutie mark for it fucking sucked. and like knowing that if i had been allowed and encouraged to explore my magic from that age i could have been even better at it. not to say i was justified i definitely still went too far but like. still ⚖️🍒: the trolls and the kids were. swapped? like we still had the same personalities and relationships and everything but basically the humans lived on alternia and the trolls lived on earth, with that same sort of societal structure and everything, and the kids played the original session that made earth. and it was neat idk im sure theres more i could name but ive run out of brain juices

c!Quackity canonically has a fat ass + why that fact actually has some narrative importance for his character
Yeah I’m making a whole post about the surprisingly controversial size of Quackity’s ass, just, stick with me here. also heads up im gonna stop sayin “c!” and just saying the names but just know im only talking abt characters lol
Anyway. First of all, let’s discuss the opposite belief: Quackity is a flatty patty. It was a running joke on the smp, and it was started by Schlatt the day after they won the election. The days before when they had planned their joint presidency, Schlatt had established that Quackity’s whole value and purpose in the cabinet was for him to be pretty and have a fat ass. Now, do we really trust Schlatt’s judgement? The man was a drunk and just plain abusive. I’m not entirely sure if the other members of the Manburg cabinet joined in, but I know that if they did it wasn’t nearly as often as Schlatt, so he was definitely the spearhead of the “flat ass q” truthers. But, even Schlatt contradicted himself from time to time. He said multiple times, including his death scene, that Quackity and his “fat ass” left him, even though he later said “flatty patty” as his last words. Basically, tldr, i think Schlatt’s opinion is irrelevant and he contradicts himself too much to be taken seriously.
Alternatively, there are multiple scenes of Wilbur being caught staring at Q’s ass, anywhere between the very beginning of the elections all the way to Niki’s birthday party. Once when building the White House, once during the stream “we must get voters”, once when Tommy and Q told him about Plan Ass, and honestly probably a few more times that i just don’t remember right now. I trust him a bit more because hes fruity because he had no reason to make Quackity, his rival, feel better about his body. Plus, they even thought his ass was a solid enough plan to actually try out.
Now for why it matters narratively.
Schlatt changed Quackity and I think we all know that. He belittled Quackity all the time and I believe a lot of the way he thinks is built off of that now. I think he has been put down by people like Schlatt (and even Techno just by not treating him as a real threat) so much that he now has this concept that everyone looks at him that way, like hes worthless and can’t do anything right because all he’s good for is his looks.
I feel like a very important part of this is that he actually does look the way Schlatt initially said he did, but Schlatt then made him think that was what he should put all his worth into and used that information to hurt Q and emphasize that Schlatt was the leader and Quackity was nothing. And obviously, Schlatt calling Quackity stuff like flatty patty did hurt him a lot, because what if it was true? What if Schlatt was right and he was worthless now? It really pissed him off to hear it (and still does it seems) and in that first stream he immediately got to work on a workout thing that would make him have a fatter ass and kept calling Schlatt over to see if he approved or if he was proud. It was fucked up honestly.
Now he’s trying to work past that. He’s trying to be the big powerful guy who can do whatever he wants. We can see that a lot in how he always tries to prove that he could defeat Techno (someone he has a serious grudge against) and can crush Dream’s spirit. Mf has always been obsessed with power, the only difference is that now he has better weapons, armor, and a country of his own. Maybe that’s why he sounded so smug sending Wilbur away. He really thought “thats right, im better than Wilbur, this is my country and its stronger and better and it doesn’t need you.” Plus now he’s seeing that Wilbur respects him as an opponent, so he’s just as addicted to this rivalry as Wilbur is.
Long story short:
1. A few months ago I was drawing Quackity and thought “wait do i give him a fat ass or no” and ever since, I’ve cared about the answer to that question way too much.
2. I’m incapable of writing analysis without ending it with a small touch of tntduo

Tommy thinking Sam Nook and Sam are two different people would lead to such funny senarios.
Especially if you apply this logic to everyone.
what if mexican dream and quackity are the same people and that was just him making fun of dream and making tommy laugh and tommy genuinely thinks dream killed mexican dream and that hes a different person
and when ranboo pretended to be killed by clarencio
he just doesnt realise
he thinks girl dream is someone else too
tubbo genuinely has a bunch of personalities and so he thinks theyre all different people (and also he doesnt realise theyre the same people a lot)
sam, in his normal voice: tommy do you have the- tommy, crying: what happened to sam nook?
sam proceeds to live as sam nook around tommy because he once tried to tell tommy sam nook isnt real and he started sobbing and so sam cant
sapnap, approaching sam on the site: hey sam can you do this for me? sam: su- tommy, running up: SAAAAAAM!? sam, in the sam nook voice: hello tommy! sapnap: wtf??? tommy: this is sam nook! :D have you met him? sapnap: what? thats just s- sam: shakes his head, behind tommy where he cant see sapnap: uhhhhh sam: takes out sword sapnap: h-hi sam nook! tommy: :D
sam is not the only person this happened to. 
tommy: technoblade???? techno, sneaking into l'manberg: uhhh techno, in a highpitched voice: no this is Clarencio tommy: the llama? techno, in high pitched voice: no the pig tommy: hmmm techno: sweats tommy: smiles brightly ok!!!! techno, under his breath: that worked??? tommy: wanna hang out with me? techno, in high piteched voice: i really need to go tommy: buttttttt :(
technoblade proceeds to have to pretend to be clarencio the pig and hang out with tommy all afternoon
phil, coming to check on techno: techno? techno, in a frilly pink dress, in a high pitched voice: hi tommy: phil!!!! have you met clarencio??? but not the llama!!! clarencio the pig!!! phil, holding back a laugh: is that so?
(defenitly happened before he got exiled, i refuse to change my mind)
everytime techno is caught he says hes clarencio (the pig) and tommy vouches for him each time and no one is able to bring themselves to tell him that clarencio (the pig) doesnt exist
sam nook, :handshake: clarencio the pic, :handshake:  mexican dream, (not girl dream) not being able to tell tommy their not real bc hed cry
IMAGINE IF TOMMY WAS GIVEN THE JOB OF LIKE BEING THE BORDER PEOPLE WHILE HE WAS WILBURS VICE BEFORE THE ELECTION AND PEOPLE WOULD JUST FAKE IDENTIES AND TOMMY WOULD JUST BELIVE EVERYONE
quackity: i demand to be allowed to join l'manberg! wilbur: ur american quackity: i shpould still be allowed! wilbur: just say your not, thats what everyone does quackity: what wilbur: just make a fake identity?? quackity: youre... the president???? wilbur: yeah and?? quackity: shouldnt you not be be endorsing that??? wilbur: i made tommy the border person. you think i care? quackity: sksksks quackity: still bad tho
the only one tommy never believes is dream, no matter what, he can just tell when someone is dream, like ya know those police dogs? the only reason he didnt realise girl dream was because girl dream is girl dream he thought it was just a dream thing
TOMMY THINKS BAD AND MONOCHROME BAD ARE TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE
monochrome bad: tommy tommy: whomst? bad: oh uh recolourfies tommy, screaming: WHAT THE FUCK
tommy doesnt have object permanence but for people
techno, while tommy is staying with him: leaves room tommy, crying: I had a big brother once, i dont remember him tho
phil leaves them and (while stabbing wilbur) tommy just doesnt realize its him until techno says "dad?"
quackity works at wendys and tommy goes there everyday but doesnt realise its quackity
tommy went there since the war ended
and at the time didnt realise tommy cant tell and so when he and tommy started a mafia and became friends he thought tommy knew who he was and tommy once suggested going to dennys and quackity is like 'oh my god' and tommy is like my friend works there!!! and then they go to the one quackity works at and quackity is like 'haha funny' and then tommy asks around and then turns to quackity sadly like "my friend isnt here today D:" and then quackity is like o h
tommy, towards sam, in sams house: sam!!!!!! sam, who was sleeping, in his normal voice: w-what? tommy: sam!!! :D sam: hey tommy yawns whyd you wake me up? tommy: sorry but i really needed to ask you a question!!! sam: did you want to ask me where sam nook is again? tommy: welll.. that too but!!! you should meet sam nook!!!! sam: what tommy: please please please sam: no go back what did you ask? tommy: you need to meet sam nook! i think you'd be friends!!! :D sam, internally: shit sam: uhhh i dont really think i should- tommy: pleaasee uses puppy eyes sam: sure sam, internally: why did i say yes????
sam then has to pretend to be sam and sam nook at the same time
tommy: you're gonna love sam nook sam!!!! sam: uhuh tommy: where is he? :( sam: uh maybe hes behind you tommy: turns around to look sam: runs to other side of tommy sam, in sam nook voice: hello tommy!!! tommy: sam nook! have you met sam??? hes right here!!! gestures to sam who has to run behind him again tommy: sam say hi!!! sam, panting, in normal voice: hi tommy: whyre you all out of breath and shit???
this,,, just continues for a while
quackity, watching this exchange, driunking juice: sucks to suck sam: you'd do the same quackity: no. mexican dream is dead lol tommy, only hearing the last part: cries i miss mexican dream quackity, feeling sad: uh- we can revive him maybe? tommy: wipes tears YEAH! sam, whispers to quackity: told you so quackity, hisses to sam : shut up
quackity then has to pretend to revive himself while running around also he has to steal another one of dreams masks
honestly in this au everyone would hear about what happened during exile and stab dream (while pretending to be other people because ig in this au tommy still thinks dream was once his friend and yeh)
tommy, after crying infront of sam nook and telling him what dream did to him: so.. sniffs do you have any more quests for me to do? sam nook: i have one more quest tommy, cheering up: what is it!! sam nook: for myself tommy, confused: what is it? sam nook, taking out a glock: homocide
insanebur: you want to know why no one listens to you tommy? tommy, pouting, on the verge of tears: What? insanebur, unable to finish, clutching his heart: your too cute
this is just au where tommy is baby huh
wilbur isnt mad schlatt exiled him- hes mad he exiled tommy
schlatt and dream are the only ones not affected by tommys baby vibes and thats their downfall
tommy just has to call everyone a nickname, once, and everyone is melted
niki and jack: tommy is the fault of all our probelms we should kill him puffy: he. bonk is bonk baby bonk niki and jack: look over at tommy tommy, with sam in the distance: cries to sam because he cant find sam nook niki and jack: okay... maybe we should be less... violent...
Sam rlly just went
sam: looks at tommyinnit sam: nothing bad will ever happen to this child ever again
huh?
I’ve named this au, au where hes baby ur honour
tommy: i had zero parents (who care) tommy, gestures to puffy and sam: NOW I HAVE TWOOOOOOO
insanebur: god i fucking hate everyone tommy: even me? insanebur: except you tommy
sam: I AM THE TOMMY GAURDIAN! GAURDIAN OF THE TOMMY! sam @ anyone who wants to hurt him: FUCK OFFF
tommy canoanically understands the animal crossing language
ranboo: i can speak enderman! tommy: well i can speak creeper
whenever tommy gets overwhelemed around sam he burys himself he asks sam to cover for him in creeper
okay thats enough of that

My final thoughts on WandaVision (so it goes without saying if you haven’t finished it, don’t look past Vision)
Tumblr media
What I liked:
• I loved the sitcom concept, super cool. And finding out why she hung onto sitcoms for comfort was just *chefs kiss* pay off wise.
• I loved how it started out as a slow build up (but I do think it would’ve worked better to have longer episodes to make things fit better and not feel as rushed towards the end)
• I loved Darcy, Monica and Jimmy’s trio. They were so fantastic together and the actors all did great.
• On the note of Monica, IM SO EXCITED TO HAVE A WOMAN OF COLOR SUPERHERO (especially since she’ll eventually be a main character not just a “sidekick”) 🥳
• I LOVED Pietro/Fietro/Ralph/Uncle P (whoever the hell he actually was). I obviously have some dislikes about the last episode, but we’ll get to that later. I loved how fun Evan Peters was. He really did a fantastic job even though no one knew what was going on with his character, he ate that shit up and left no crumbs.
• Wanda and Visions love story is so much better now that we got to build up to it rather than us just jumping into it (how I felt in Infinity War)
• SCARLET WITCH BOUT TO MAKE ME ACT UP. HOLY JIMMINE CRICKETS WAS SHE LOOKING GORGEOUS AND POWERFUL IN THAT LAST EPISODE
• Billy and Tommy are some of the sweetest children I think I’ve ever seen in a movie/show world and I love them with all my heart and soul and I really hope they do return.
• ITS BEEN AGATHA ALL ALONG 💃🏻🕺🏽💃🏻🕺🏽💃🏻
• “what is grief if not love persevering”
• “we’ve said goodbye before so it stands to reason... we’ll say hello again” IM CRYING JUST THINKING ABOUT IT.
• Wanda tucked in Billy and Tommy so they’d be asleep before they were sucked away with the hex 😭😭😭
• “thank you for choosing me to be your mom” 😭
• That second end credit scene with Scarlet Witch astral projecting was so trippy (I love it) and the boys calling to her broke my dang heart.
• overall the special effects looked really cool
• omg Elizabeth Olsen breaking her back to create the hex was 10/10 she’s so dedicated to the motions/physical acting of it all. Also all her crying scenes, it all felt very real and it really made me sob whenever she was hurting.
Things I didn’t like:
• Episode length. I understand they wanted it to go with the length of a normal sitcom, but it doesn’t work when you’re flashing back and forth between the sitcom and the real world. The time got messy towards the end and things felt rushed like the Vision vs. White Vision battle was just boring because it had no climatic energy to it.
• Too many loose ends/wasn’t clear enough. By that I mean, who was Jimmy’s missing person that led to him learning about the hex? (I’m hoping it was Evan Peters’ character, but more on that later). What happened to White Vision? Does Wanda have Agatha’s power now or did she just make it so she couldn’t use them?
• Ralph Bohner? Really Disney/Marvel? Really? You’re telling me you got Evan fricking Peters just so you could stunt cast and fuck with the audience and end it with a dick joke? Not cool.
• Why no Darcy in the last episode other than 2 seconds :(
• Hayward... Thats it. I just really hate him.
• some of the script/lines were a little questionable... like idk a lot of Agatha’s lines once she was revealed as the villain just were lack luster after her amazing intro and they were sort of tacky.
• I didn’t like how they hyped up certain things just for them to not really be significant (like Monica saying she knew a space engineer who could get her in and it was all mysterious, then not even ending up needing the truck they built or the character not really having much of a “wow” show up)
• I’m back to the Evan Peters thing. Why would they hype up his character’s mystery identity for him to just be a random dude named Ralph Bohner??? That’s such terrible writing (obviously I’m not an expert writer, but I actually did internship at a magazine where I had to read submitted stories and judge them and see if they were worthy of publication. And my minor in college was writing. So I do know a little about story telling, and something is off about the way they did this.). It’s either the fact that it’s just plain bad writing, or it’s a misdirect. I want to believe that Marvel knows how much people would enjoy EP in this show and would eventually expect more from him in the MCU. Now obviously, this is Wanda’s show and she decides what makes it on and what doesn’t, so maybe Ralph is the missing person Jimmy was looking for, but Wanda doesn’t know that, nor would she want it on her show. Maybe he really is Quicksilver but they put him in the Witness Protection Program when he came over from another universe? Or maybe he really is just a nobody who Agatha lived with because his house was conveniently close to Wanda’s. Or maybe he is someone of significance because who just has a random headshot lying around with their proof of ownership of their house and other paperwork and then laughs at their name Bohner even though if they’d had that name their whole life they’d be sick of the dick jokes?? Maybe they left it vague enough so they could gauge audience reaction to EP, if it was good they could come back to it in a mutants movie/show (or maybe even Doctor Strange 2 or Spider-Man 3) or if it was bad, just leave it at he’s a random person who already lived in Westview. Idk all I know is if they don’t end up bringing him back I’m definitely gonna be significantly less interested in any morphing of the XMen and mutants into the MCU.
Lastly, I just wanna say the actors and actresses all did fantastic (especially Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany). They all play such complex roles this time around and it really showed how passionate they were about this project. I loved them all so much and they truly brought this show to life (yes it has flaws, but it was their first attempt at a MCU timeline show, and the actors did what they could with what they were given so none of my criticism go towards them). I really enjoyed this overall (and I’m genuinely sad to see it ending) and I’m looking forward to seeing Wanda being a bad mamma-jamma in Doctor Strange 2.

Some unspoken thing
Karl Jacobs x Reader 
requested: no
Trigger warnings: mentions of covid, mild descriptions of a panic attack
premise: You and Karl have been friends, for years now, and now even your friends are starting to see that unspoken thing between you
“---” talking
‘---’ talking through a call
(y/s/n) -  your screen name
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You’d known Karl since you were at least 10, and you both agreed that you’d been together forever, through thick and thin it was always you and Karl against the world. You and your unspoken thing.
When he’d first spoken of moving away from Portland you weren’t too sure, mostly because of college, but still, you found yourself here, sprawled across a couch, exhausted from hauling boxes up to your apartment. 
“Why did we bring so much stuff?” You groaned as Karl picked up your legs long enough to sit down, then letting them drop into his lap. 
He sighed, “Don’t quote me on this, but it was you who couldn’t pack your stuff into less than 20 boxes.” 
“Yah okay Mr. ‘I can’t be bothered to even clean this laundry before I pack it up to leave’.” You scoffed.  
“That's not true! I washed most of it...” Karl trailed off pulling out his phone, “Pizza?” 
“Obviously.” 
Soon the pizza arrived and as Karl went to the door to grab it, you went and grabbed two monsters from the fridge, sitting back down in front of the couch as Karl came back with the pizza. 
“Ey I gotta pizza here!” He exclaimed, setting it down. 
“Eyyyyyyy!” You handed him one of the monsters, opening your own as he sat down, already starting to pull up an old episode of survivor. 
Once the pizza had been finished, and the left overs put away you ended up half cuddled together on the couch, your fingers softly carding through his hair. 
^^
“Hey! I’m back!” You called, looking around the seemingly empty apartment, confused, “Karl?” 
It had been a few months since, you’d moved out to North Carolina, and so far online school hadn’t been too bad even when corona hit, not with Karl and streaming to distract you from the reality of the world around you.
You went back to looking around for your friend, calling, “Hey, Karl where’d you go?” 
Sighing you followed the soft, muffled sobs to Karl’s room, knocking on the door softly, “Honey, are you in there?” 
There was silence, then a muffled, “un uh.” 
You pushed open the door gently, blinking into the mild darkness and turning to see Karl sitting on his bed, half curled into the wall and wrapped in a sweater he’d stolen from your closest a few weeks ago. 
Immediately  you crossed the room, climbing onto the bed next to him and pulling him into your arms, “Hey, hey, what’s wrong? What happened?” 
His arms drifted around your waist, burying his into your chest, “They all hate me.” He murmured. 
“Who do you think hates you?” You cooed. 
“Dream and Sapnap and everyone.”
“They don’t hate you, no one on the smp hates you.” You pressed a kiss to the top of his head, “What happened?” 
“I said somethin stupid, (y/n), I messed everything up.” 
You knew not to push any further, instead just doing your best to hold him closer, whispering, “They don’t hate you, they’d never hate you okay? It’ll all blow over and everything will be okay. I promise.” 
“What if it doesn’t (y/n)? What if I messed it up forever?” 
“You didn’t baby, you didn’t. It’s gonna be alright, I promise.” 
^^
“Ahhhhhh leave me alone!” You half shrieked, running away from Sapnap and Quackity on the dream SMP. 
‘Imposter! Imposter!’ They chanted. 
“I’m just supposed to be babysitting the chat!” You yelled, “I didn’t sign up to bully on a twitch stream! If I wanted that I would’ve been on my own stream!”
Sapnap laughed, ‘Oof! That's sad.’ 
“I know,” You said dramatically, “No one has any respect for (y/s/n), not you, not my chat, not even Karl!” 
‘We all know thats not true.’ Quackity scoffed. 
You half turned, giggling as Karl, came back into the room, “Debatable.” 
“What’s uh, whats going on?” He asked. 
“I’m being bullied, that's what's going on,” The chat started to fill with hearts and ‘(y/s/n) support.’, “Also I’ve decided since your chat likes me more than mine, so this is my stream now, I’m taking over.” 
Karl just half sighed, grabbing the chair from your desk on the other side of the office, and wheeling it over, sitting down next to you, propping his legs in your lap. 
‘(y/n) the world wants to know, how does it feel to now fill the void where Karl Jacobs once sat?’ Quackity asked, through a voice filter. 
“Well, since my dear friend Karl died,” 
“I’m not dead!” He interjected.
You sniffed, “Sometimes I can still hear his voice.”
“Dear friend?” Sapnap scoffed, “Al- Quackity look at the stream and tell me if they look like ‘dear friends’.” 
You face started to grow red, as both Nick and Alex began to catcall at you two, Karl, clearly getting confused as you ducked your head, face entirely red. 
“Whats the matter (y/n)? You got a crush?” Nick teased. 
Half covering your mouth you muttered, “Just some unspoken thing.” 
^^
“If I were to tell you that I kinda sorta didn’t listen to you, and forgot to buy more cereal, what would you say?” Karl asked, shrugging off his backpack as he came into the apartment. 
When he got no real response, he started to look around, finding you a minute later, laying on his bed, “Did’ja hear me?” 
“ehhhh... I don’t really care.” 
His brow furrowed upon hearing your monotonous, “You okay? What’s up?” 
You were still staring up at the ceiling “Grey, ‘s all grey.”
Sighing he came and sat down on the bed next to you, taking one of your hands in his, “Grey?” 
“Sad brain makes everything grey.” 
Karl fiddled with your fingers a moment, before raising them to his lips and softly pressing a kiss to your knuckles, “I’ll go make you tea.” 
He headed out of the room, leaving you to sit up and stare at the ceiling wondering what you’d done to deserve someone like him. 
He headed out of the room, leaving you to sit up and stare at the ceiling wondering what you’d done to deserve someone like him. 
A few minuets later he came back with a mug, handing it to you before he sat down behind you, wrapping his arms around you, “Is there a reason for sad brain today?” 
“Everything's just- blah. I’m just tired.” 
He didn’t need to ask to understand you didn’t mean physically, so instead he just pulled you gently to lean against his chest, pressing a gentle kiss to the edge of your jaw, “Okay?”
You knew Karl had a hard time with words sometimes, and you had long since learned how to listen for the meanings between simple phrases, and especially the weight of certain words, “Okay.” 
^^
‘So what is with you and Karl?’ Niki asked. 
You sighed, “I do not even know where to begin to answer that question.”
You were sitting in a discord call with her, originally trying to plan a joint stream but the conversation had switched.
‘I mean, if you don’t mind me saying so, it seems like your dating.’ 
“Well...” You considered it for a moment, you knew that your feelings for Karl were more than platonic, and had been for a long time, to you, it almost seemed like a fact of the world, the sky is blue, the earth is round, you loved Karl. 
“We've never talked about it, but- I suppose we- uhhh, you know what we’ll just say a little bit.” You quickly changed what you were going to say to be more ambiguous as Karl entered the room yelling, “Hi Niki!” 
‘I know you can’t hear me but hi Karl!’ She yelled back. 
You laughed, turning in your chair, “Niki says hi!” 
Karl grinned, leaning on the back of your chair, “Oh, yeah, dinners ready.”  and Niki raised her eyebrows, smirking at you.
“Don’t look at me like that.” You laughed, feeling Karl’s chin coming to rest on the top of your head. 
‘I’m not looking at anything.’ she insisted, ‘you would be a cute couple.’
Your face started to turn red, “Shut up!” 
‘It was a compliment!’ Niki laughed. 
“I know!” 
Karl’s face grew confused, “What?”
“It’s nothing. Niki I’ve gotta go, we’ll see about the stream tomorrow, okay?” 
‘yeah, bye!’ 
“Bye!” 
You disconnected from the call, “Dinner?” 
“Yeah! I managed not to burn the chicken!” 
You couldn’t help but grin, “Awesome!” 
^^
“I swear- either there both oblivious or there just really good at keeping it just hidden enough!” Dream exclaimed. 
“I mean if we don’t find out for another two weeks, I get a hundred dollars, so by all means let it drag out.” Quackity laughed. 
Sapnap groaned, “Actually its more like three hundred now, Hbomb, Skeppy and Wilbur all put in more money.” 
“Well I asked the other day,” Niki began, “and they only said, ‘a little bit’, What does that even mean?” 
“Maybe they are dating and that's (y/n)s way of dismissing it.” Tubbo said. 
You were listening to the discord call, trying not to laugh, as Tommy suggested, “Well it’s possible they are dating but like, haven’t realized it?” 
Everyone began to laugh, “Wait- wait hear me out! Hear me out! Like- you know when on like romcoms and shit where two bestfriends end up like there dating even when they technically aren’t and then they accidently kiss!” 
George scoffed, “That's not a thing.” 
“Well still!” Tommy tried to argue. 
“Not even in movies though.” Niki said. 
“Your right,” You laughed, unmuting, “We haven’t kissed yet, so it must not be a thing.” 
The vc went deadly silent as Tommy began to laugh hysterically, “Were you here the whole time?” 
“Maybe.” You laughed. 
“Wait- so are you and Karl together or not?” Dream questioned. 
“Uhhh, let you know when I find out? Do I get the money if I figure it out?” 
“Oh my god (y/n).” Tubbo was trying not to laugh himself as Tommy continued to lose his shit. 
“Yeah,” You looked over to where Karl was half asleep, leaning against you, “I’ve said it before, and I guess I’ll say it again, it’s just some unspoken thing.” 
^^
Music filled the apartment when you entered, some old song by Sinatra, and Karl was dancing around the living room as you pulled off your coat and mask. 
“Are you listening to Sinatra?” You questioned, setting the rest of your things down. 
“Come dance with me!” He giggled. 
You rolled your eyes, still smiling as you grabbed his hand, letting the other come to rest on his shoulder, “God, it’s been so long since I’ve dance.” 
“Come on, you remember don’t you?” 
You chuckled, “Back, side, forward, back. Technically this isn’t a waltzing song though.” 
“You can waltz to anything if you try hard enough,” Karl insisted, “Ready, and- one two three, one two three...” 
You fell into step, quietly humming along to the song as you moved in a slow arc around the room.
“..And- spin out...” Karl murmured, gently spinning you out to the side, and you paused for a a moment before he tugged on you arm, causing you to spin back in, finding yourself, face to face with him. 
You laughed nervously, suddenly blushing at the feeling of his arms around you. 
“What are we?” Karl asked softly, “Like, what is- this?” 
“Some unspoken thing.” Your voice was just as low, suddenly the weight of the hand resting on your lower back seeming to double.
He looked at your lips, then back at your eyes, and you nodded softly, leaning in and pressing your lips together. 
Your arms drifted around his waist as he pulled you closer, before you separated, smiling. 
“Does that mean it’s spoken now?” Karl asked. 
You grinned, “Course.” 
Later, after spending the rest of the night like any other you were cuddled up together on the couch, watching the newest episode of survivor, and you pretended not to notice as he gushed to someone through text. 
Your phone began to buzz with  venmo notifications, and Karl looked at you confused, “(y/n), why is everyone paying you?” 
You chuckled, “Reaping the benefits of our friends conspiring in a discord call that was left open.” 
After the kiss you had sent one text to a group chat; ‘I figured it out: pay up bitches.’

Dream x Reader
Request: okay okay so :D mcc with dream when the reader and dream are on the same team ans it’s very cute and fluffy, also with she/her pronouns pls :] thank you!!
Pronouns: She/Her
Note: the first team i thought of was red rabbits so thats why i used them:) i forgot how the mcc works so forgive me if i wrote anything wrong😭 ALSO I WAS SO SLEEPDEPRIVED WHILE WRITIBG THIS SO SORRY IF ITS BAD
Warnings: mild swearing lol
y/nishere = your twitch name
Tumblr media
You were scrolling through twitter, waiting for the announcing of teams. It was your first time ever playing. You played some minecraft but that wasn't all you played, you played other games too. After a few hours of scrolling, you finally got a notification.
Announcing Team Red Rabbits!
@Y/nishere @Dream @FundyLive @Nihachu
Watch them compete in the MC Championship on Saturday 14th November 8pm GMT!
You heard Clay running to your room from the kitchen. He knocks on your door and you let a out a soft 'come in.' "Did you see the announcment for the MCC?" "I did, I'm pretty excited!" you say enthusiastically.
You weren't as skilled as Clay but you were excited nonetheless.
-
It was finally November 8. You were just sitting on your desk staring at your monitor. 'What if I mess up? What if we lose? What if-' All these thoughts were racing your mind. You started bouncing your leg, something you do when you get nervous, and you bit your lip.
Clay was walking past your room when he saw your nervous state. He walked up to you, kneeled beside you, and started rubbing your back. "Are you alright? Do you want some water?"
"I don't want any water" you were still bouncing your leg, but the speed had decreased. "Well, are you alright? You look nervous" "I'm fine, just nervous 'cause this is my first time playing in the MCC and all that" his face softens. "You'll do great! I promise." You look at him and smile.
He kisses your cheek before he gets up and walks to the door and he send you a smile before closing the door behind him.
You boot up Minecraft and sighed, "I hope I do do great."
-
You were on the last game and you were praying that it wasn't Build Mart and it was gonna be Sands of Time. If you get Sands of Time, you might be able to get into top 3, maybe even first place. Red Rabbits was currently on 5th place. You were having fun but you were still stressed about it.
You and your team were about to vote until you got dunked by the team beside you. You look over to the side to see Orange Ocelots, which consisted of Tommy, Smajor, Wisp, and Quackity. They were all crouching and jumping. Tommy joins the call for a few seconds, "Fuck you bitch!" he says in a sing-song voice. You all burst into laughter. But it wasn't long 'till you looked back to your screen and it read 'Sands of Time.'
"Look guys it's Sands of Time! We might still win this." Niki says excitedly.
-
"Dose anyone got any sand? I need it." You were currently watching the timer while the others were getting sand for you.
"Yeah I have some. Here." Fundy hands you 7 sand. "Thanks" "How many do you have now?" he starts running back into one of the tunnels he went into before. "Uhmm I have 9 sand." "Okay great"
-
You were now collecting sand because the one that Fundy gave you earlier ran out. You were running around trying to get sand and heard Niki in the call, "Y/n, help me please I just died." So you ran over to her, freed her from the tomb, and continued getting more sand.
Clay spoke, "Hey how much time we got left?" You glance back at the timer and it read '20.' "Oh shit it's at 20-"
You ran back to the timer to place sand. When you got to the timer, it went down to 10. You placed all the sand you had left and it went back up to 50. "It's at 50 now, we're good."
-
You just finished Sands of Time and were waiting for the other teams to finish. You were just talking about the earlier games and random things before all the teams finished.
When the scores were counted again, you ended up in 4th place. Not too bad, but could've done better. You and your team were super proud since it was your first time playing.
-
Green Gaurdians and Purple Pandas were now dueling it out. All the teams were screaming and betting who would win.
You were screaming and cheering but you saw Clay going on mute. You didn't want to be nosy but you were curious on whet he was doing. "Hey guys I just have something real quick." You muted yourself and got up.
Right when you grabbed onto your door knob, Clay opens the door before you. You let out a yelp while he flinches.
"What the hell?" "Sorry, I just wanted to check up on you." he says nonchalantly and giggles.
"So how are you doing? Are you feeling better now than earlier?" "Yeah. I still feel like we couldv'e done better." you said in a lighthearted manner to hide the fact that you were disappointed. But Clay knew you too well.
He smiles and cups your face with both of his hands. "It's okay. Even if you're a little disappointed, you still did good considering it's your first time playing." You remove his hands from your face and hold them. "Thank you, I really needed that." You give him a peck on his cheek then to his lips. "Let's go back, they're probably wondering where we are."
-
When you got back, they were still fighting, but Green Gaurdians was in the lead. After a few minutes, they came out victorious.
Niki ended her stream and left call because she said that she was tired. You, Fundy, Dream, George, and Smajor just stayed in call for a bit longer just chatting.
"Welp, I'm gonna rest now bye everyone!" bye's and goodbye's erupted from the call. You ended the stream and went to Clay's room.
"Are you still streaming?" you whisper. "Nope, just finished." he turns off his computer and looks at you. "Great! Wanna watch a movie with me and Patches?" "Sure, I'll be down in a bit." you kiss his nose and go downstairs to ready a movie.

So like kind of shy sweet reader and Tommy have been friends forever right. They’re real comfy y’know. And they like hold hand and cuddle and text good morning/ night. Then they bump into a cast mate and Tom says this is my girlfriend y/n and she just 😍🥺 wait really... fully am naive idiot also yes please boyfriend
summary: tom introduces you to jake on set as his girlfriend, even though you weren’t aware thats what you were
tom holland x reader
w/c 0.5k
blurb week!
a/n - i have one more blurb week request to finish off and then i’ll get to the normal requests <3
coming to set with tom was a routine thing for you, you’d been there for most of homecoming and quite a few of his other movies. however, you’d never had the chance to visit while he was filming far from home, you were too busy with work and would apologise constantly, even if it wasn’t your fault.
so when filming for the new spiderman rolled around, you took the first opportunity to fly out with tom.
you’d already met most of the cast, but you were finally reuniting with them after a few years. you were glad that they all remembered you, not wanting to go through the difficulty of awkward reintroductions. although they didn’t tell you the reason they remembered you was because tom never shuts up about you.
“oh my god,” tom suddenly announced, jolting you from the nap you were trying to take. after the two of you landed early in the morning, you decided on taking a nap in tom’s trailer before he had to head to set.
“what?” you asked, burying your head in his side to try and get back to sleep.
“no, wake up, i need to introduce you to jake.” you huffed, shaking your head and pulling the covers over your head.
“y/n,” he whined, gently nudging you to sit up. you grumbled something about doing it later, but tom wasn’t listening, forcing you to climb out of the warm bed.
tom held your hand the entire time you were blindly walking around the set, letting him try and look for the man he wanted you to meet.
he was like a puppy when he spotted the older man in the crowd, yelling his name to catch his attention.
“i haven’t seen you in so long,” tom said, letting go of your hand to give his friend a hug. jake agreed, turning his attention to you and holding out his hand.
“who’s this?” he asked tom, noticing your hesitance to say anything. you gladly shook his hand, greeting him but letting tom introduce you.
“this is my girlfriend, y/n,” your heart melted, turning your head in his direction.
“wait what?” you asked, sounding like the definition of a lost puppy. “i’m your girlfriend?”
when you thought about it, you could understand why he thought that. you and tom were always together, cuddling closer than friends should, going on ‘friend’ dates; it all made sense.
“i thought- do you not want to be?” he asked, a slightly feeling of insecurity bubbling in his stomach. you rapidly shook your head, cupping his cheeks with an uncontrollable smile.
“i’d love to.” tom’s smile was back, and he was pressing his lips to yours, both of you forgetting about jake standing right in front of you.
uncomfortable, the older man cleared his throat, forcing you both to acknowledge that he was still there.
“i’m glad you’re happy, but can you maybe celebrate while i’m not right here.” you blushed wildly, hiding your head in tom’s neck when he let out a laugh.
“about time you finally asked,” you whispered, tom’s jaw going slack at your sudden burst of confidence.
“oi, none of that, i want my shy y/n back.”

stupid las nevadas headcannon of the day
Quackity and Wilbur actively being affectionate in Las Nevada's when they think no one's looking but then the minors + Charlie always manage to see because they just aren't subtle at all
Additionally whenever they do see all of them [ except for purpled ] are just like wow! what good friends! Because their lines of platonic to romantic is incredibly blurred.
Tommy is known to just not understand what kissing is so I think if he saw it he wouldn't actually realize thats what it is. Charlie knows what kissing is but thinks it's a platonic thing
Tubbo and Ranboo's marriage in general makes me think that they also don't understand the difference between platonic and romantic also I think endermen probably have different ideas of affection to humans that Tubbo just goes along with
Every time it happens Purpled just turns to them and goes "How am I, an alien whose only lived here for afew years more knowledgeable on your traditions than you are?"

personal dsmp headcannons
these are very out of order and very long my apologies
- after the festival Tubbo was kinda comatose afterwards and Techno spent hours sitting next to his bed saying he was sorry and repeatedly telling him to wake up as he thought he was the reason behind him not waking up
- revivebur once tried to find Friend again, holding out blue near Phil and Techno’s house calling his name in an attempt to find him. He did it so he could gain Tommy’s trust back
- Tommy was created by the godess of space; Clara, however she thought he would have a better life on Earth and sent him down as a shooting star which was found by SBI. During exile was the first real time Tommy had noticed her. While playing with Dream’s trident he got above the clouds and saw her in the brief moment all she said was ‘hello starchild’ that was the moment he realized who she was and why when anything tragic happened to him or his friends the stars would fall [ it was her tears ] on the night where he began towering up there was a meteor shower like no one had ever seen before
- Ghostbur was found by Mumza in the first few years of his limbo and she took him with her. Now he helps her to bring spirits along to the afterlife.
- Prime isn’t a real god and is infact a monster created by the Dreamons, the majority of the SMP believes it purely because of Dream making the prime church
- Tubbo isn’t naturally a goat when he was about 5 or 6 his actual parents sacrificed him to Prime which made him turn into a goat hybrid, he some how survived and then just showed up on Phil’s doorstep crying. Now he’s very anti-prime and hates how overly religious Tommy is
- Overworld demons live off of the diamond people meaning their kinda endangered. 4000 years ago when Skeppy imerged he was so certain that Bad was going to eat him but he just didn’t and now they’ve been together for 4000 years
- When Sam was younger he randomly found a baby with massive duck wings by a pond it’s now been like 30 years and now said baby runs a casino country
- Bad and Skeppy were exploring a recently burned down village, everyone survived and left the village except for one. A baby left in it’s cot. Upon finding this baby Bad began to cry, a tear landed on the baby and it came back to life now as a half demon. Bad took him in and named him Sapnap
- When running away from exile Tommy developed hypothermia in his right leg and once he entered Techno’s house and Techno found him they did a makeshift surgery and amputated his left. He now has a netherite prostetic made to look like a piglin leg made by Techno
- Techno’s cape is covered in random pieces of embroidery some were made just for fun [ like an orca made by Wilbur or some random hearts by Phil ] however a few of them were made by Tubbo and Tommy. Tubbo made alot of bees when he was recovering from the explosion as he vision wasn’t great and his hands were still very shakey. Tommy stitched in some stars, Mellohi, Cat and a smiley face after he got out of exile as there wasn’t much to do when he only had one leg
- Rosie the sheep has a random smear of blue on her, this is from an encounter with Friend
- Niki’s parent are an angel and demon respectively and when Jack died she begged her demon parent to bring him back to life however he wasn’t there. As it turned out he had already dragged himself back out of hell
- Slimecicle is older than Phil and first imerged with the OriginsSMP group. 1000s of years later when joining Las Nevadas Quackity showed him a list of everyone on the server and told him if he should like them or not. He stood quitely and listened and when asked if he had any questions he just responed with ‘where’s Scott, Sneeg. Beau and James?’ as he recognised people from origins who are now long gone. His life finally came to and end when afew 10000 years later he was killed by a robot in the last 30 days of the SMP’s existence
- Purpled comes from a planet where children are trained to fight from a very young age for entertainment, he was saved however by another alien called Punz who he considers a brother. They landed on the SMP in an escape pod
- Ponk is actually made of lemon, like you could cut him open and it would look like the inside of a lemon because thats what it actually is. The last part was only proven when Sam cut off his arm and ate it which was very sour
_ _ _
I would like to note that the Tommy being made by the space godess Clara is and being sent to earth to live with SBI is not my original headcannon, the additional bits added on though are

TNTDUO WEEK DAY 7: Pogtopia / Niki's birthday
Tumblr media
This entire challenge was harder than I thought it would be but anyway
Wilburs room in Pogtopia was a shitty little crevice he'd made by flying near the top of the ravine, shoving a stick of dynamite into a crack in the wall and exploding it, you could only get to it by flying so when Quackity joined he shared the room with Wilbur

Fantastic Four Vol 1 #285
Mon Jan 04 2021 [11:07 PM] Bocaj: To finish up 85, (2)85 [11:07 PM] Wack'd: uh
Tumblr media
[11:07 PM] Bocaj: Oh thiiiiiis onnnnnne [11:07 PM] Wack'd: UH
Tumblr media
[11:07 PM] Bocaj: I have the physical of this issue in one of my mystery boxes [11:09 PM] Wack'd: So our eventual victim is a boy named Tommy Hanson [11:10 PM] Wack'd: He bargains with a bully for a copy of a celebrity magazine with Johnny Storm in it and then gets caught reading it in class and has it thrown out [11:11 PM] Wack'd: "I know it's different for boys. You're not going to marry him, because it's 1985"
Tumblr media
[11:11 PM] Bocaj: Oof [11:12 PM] Wack'd: 😬 [11:13 PM] Wack'd: Tommy is a latchkey kid who drowns his sorrows in a Fantastic Four-centric episode of "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" [11:13 PM] Wack'd: Shot before their home got launched into space, presumably [11:13 PM] Bocaj: ha [11:13 PM] Wack'd: On a whim he decides to call the Avengers Mansion and try to speak to Johnny but Jarvis says he's not in [11:14 PM] Wack'd: Which is wild if you stop and think about it for two seconds because it means anybody can just call the Avengers. You would think they would have an answering service or a switchline or something and you'd be very unlikely to actually get an Avenger on the other end [11:14 PM] Bocaj: Nice guy, Jarvis [11:15 PM] KarkatTheDalek: Luke Cage’s Mighty Avengers had a call center! [11:15 PM] KarkatTheDalek: I thought that was a nice touch [11:15 PM] Bocaj: The Avengers also apparently answer fan mail [11:15 PM] Wack'd: But no I guess any time the phone rings it goes directly to the Mansion? Where one of the many superheroes and/or Jarvis has to pick it up? [11:15 PM] Wack'd: They would never have time for anything else [11:15 PM] KarkatTheDalek: I hope someone else does a more community focused Avengers title [11:16 PM] maxwellelvis: Why am I not surprised Luke would handle this issue the way a small business owner would? [11:16 PM] Wack'd: what. no. what?!?
Tumblr media
[11:16 PM] Bocaj: oh goood [11:16 PM] Bocaj: thats god drawn out, not good [11:17 PM] maxwellelvis: Is he playing off the whole alleged controversy of why Johnny was off the 70's cartoon? [11:17 PM] Bocaj: That's my going theory. That or the SNL sketch [11:18 PM] maxwellelvis: That'd be even worse. [11:18 PM] maxwellelvis: IIRC the real reason for HERBIE was Johnny was a separate license at that time. [11:18 PM] Wack'd: Yep [11:19 PM] Wack'd: Back with our heroes Reed and Johnny are discussing the building of a new, bigger, better Baxter Building, and also the Beyonder because this is still technically a tie-in [11:19 PM] maxwellelvis: But urban legend of the kid who lit himself on fire grew, probably as Bocaj said, out of the "Johnny Human Torch" SNL sketch [11:19 PM] Wack'd: Enjoy Reed's jaunty little construction hat
Tumblr media
[11:20 PM] Bocaj: You're made of rubber reed but always setting a good example or at least this once you are [11:20 PM] maxwellelvis: Is he elasticing his chin to look more square-jawed? [11:22 PM] Wack'd: *stammers incoherently*
Tumblr media
[11:22 PM] Bocaj: Jesus [11:22 PM] KarkatTheDalek: John “Burning Kids” Byrne [11:23 PM] Wack'd: Johnny's ultimate low point: hailing a cab
Tumblr media
[11:23 PM] maxwellelvis: what am i supposed to say to that? [11:24 PM] Wack'd: Meanwhile Sue, Alicia, and Jen admire a new Jen statue. Jen laments she can no longer transform so she can't get a statue of her human form. So I guess we missed that [11:24 PM] Wack'd: I would circle back to it but I think we all know there's maybe like three panels worth reading [11:25 PM] maxwellelvis: That's in the She-Hulk graphic novel. [11:25 PM] Wack'd: So the editor's note tells me [11:26 PM] Bocaj: I'd argue that the villain turning out to be a swarm of highly radioactive cockroaches that hijacked a helicarrier is another point in its favor [11:26 PM] Bocaj: But in terms of things relevant to FF those three panels is good [11:27 PM] Wack'd: So Johnny is pouring his heart out to his sister and his girlfriend [11:27 PM] Wack'd: But the Beyonder decides he's the best equipped to give this pep talk [11:27 PM] Wack'd: Tough luck having an emotional crisis during a tie-in, Johnny [11:28 PM] KarkatTheDalek: I’m going to go on a limb and say that the Beyonder resurrects the kid or something? [11:28 PM] Bocaj: Shooter: "Hey, John, can you tie FF into Secret Wars II" [11:28 PM] Bocaj: Byrne: "Sure I have a *great* moment for him" starts laughing evilly [11:28 PM] Bocaj: Shooter: "Ok, have the script on my desk by monday" [11:28 PM] Wack'd: Anyway Johnny gets to see Tommy as a kid [11:29 PM] Wack'd: ...a smaller kid, I mean [11:29 PM] Wack'd: And Beyonder explains he was so neglected that literally the only reason he lived this long is because he had a joy of reading about Johnny to motivate him to persevere [11:29 PM] Bocaj: Sure [11:31 PM] Wack'd: "Not many doctors in my employ would take the time and attention to include so many details but have absolutely nothing to do with medicine. I applaud you." "Are--are you being sarcastic, Dr. Anderson?" "Noooo of coooourse not"
Tumblr media
[11:32 PM] Bocaj: ... like. Is this conceit where the issue is supposedly the medical report? [11:32 PM] Wack'd: Yes [11:32 PM] Bocaj: They already have a conceit where Byrne is writing the comic [11:32 PM] Bocaj: Thats two conceited! [11:33 PM] Wack'd: "I also enjoyed all these little pictures you drew. Very detailed." "Thank you. A dozen of my patients have died in the time it took me to draw them." [11:33 PM] Bocaj: Pfft [11:34 PM] Bocaj: I also feel like three pages isn't 'a wealth of detail' [11:34 PM] Bocaj: Unless the handwriting is super tiny [11:39 PM] Bocaj: Also, I found the post I did on 285 several years ago. Its mostly summary and mounting panic [11:39 PM] Wack'd: Mounting panic is an appropriate reaction [11:39 PM] Bocaj: Yeah! [11:40 PM] KarkatTheDalek: Alright, if that issue is done, I’ve just gotta say...John, what the fuck?
[12:13 AM] Bocaj: On the note of 285 I found some things to add off the wiki [12:13 AM] Bocaj: "In the letter collumn published in John Byrne's Next Men # 22 (January 1994), John Byrne reveals that he had originally planned that Dr. Darling would reveal the truth to the Human Torch, but he had to include the character of the Beyonder as a cross over to Secret Wars II. He even suggested to the FF editors that he would redraw all the scenes which featured the Beyonder free of charge if they decided to reprint the story." [12:14 AM] Bocaj: The dr would have been the one to get Johnny out of his slump, probably explaining more why she was the framing device [12:14 AM] Bocaj: And Byrne is kinda hilariously productively petty about having to tie in [12:15 AM] Bocaj: And this isn't the only time FF will do a plot where a kid sets himself on fire imitating Johnny. Personally I feel once is twice too often but I'm not an industry professional [12:16 AM] Wack'd: If I had a nickel [12:16 AM] Bocaj: Ha

Random Wanda Vision Thoughts--
Episode 1: I am an emotional bitch crying at Wanda and Vision saying “i do” at the end of episode 1, like can these babies please catch a break? they just want to be happy. 
Also Agnes and the 70′s show mom are my favorite wtf. 
STARK TOASTERS I SEE YOU. 
WHO IS WATCHING THEM WTF 
Episode 2: 
Dottie should die, she seems like the type who needs gently run over by a bus
WHO IS IN THE RADIO
Elizabeth Olsen is so cute in this, absolutely adorable 
IS THAT DAVID SCHWIMMER PLAYING THE PIANO
Vision is drunk from getting gum in his gears, I’m actually cackling right now. 
Tiny bit culty with the “for the children” thing, huh? Yikes
BABY BUMP! 
Some creepo decides to get in on their world and Wanda literally went “i think the fuck not, let’s try this again and this time in technicolor” 
is that the cop who asked out Ant Man on the radio?
The difference in “sitcom” Wanda who is happy in her world and “real life” Wanda when she realizes something isn’t right is honestly astonishing and Grade A Face Acting. See what happens when they let women do more on screen then walk around in tight clothes with full lips parted in a sexy pout? 
Episode 3: 
Seventies Vision’s hair is ENDING ME, I can’t even deal with that. 
IT HAS TO BE DAVID SCHWIMMER except he looks like “russ” from friends instead of “ross” 
Poor Vision is not handling impending fatherhood well 
COMIC BOOK NAME DROP BILLY AND TOMMY I LOVE IT 
Poor pregnancy fritzing Wanda. DID WANDA JUST GLITCH A TIME ERASE AND NOT MEAN TO? Listen, I did not expect to love them as a couple this much. EW HER WATER BROKE OMG 
A STORK 
Oh Wanda, poor baby she’s so afraid, I write way too much fan fiction about how all these characters are secretly terrified to go through life alone to be okay with this. 
Why did I start crying immediately when the babies were born, I’m too emotional for this. She is so beautiful and Vision is so soft meeting his son as himself, oh my gosh. THE TWIN SCREAMS while the other twin comes omg this is Grade A Sitcom bullshit. 
The doctor knows something is Up and so do Herb and Agnes. *don’t be suspicious, don’t be suspicious*
...have we actually seen Ralph and I’m just blanking on it? WHY DON’T THEY LIKE GERALDINE? WHO IS SHE?
Oh no i’m crying again over pietro and the sokovian lullaby. Don’t let me watch this while I’m PMSing wtf this is torture. GERALDINE KNOWS ABOUT ULTRON
OH SHIT WANDA IS PISSED LOOK AT THAT DANGEROUS LADY. that head tilt is fucking lethal. 
I love agnes oh man. I know because of spoilers she’s something of a bad guy? but I love her
WHAT HAPPENED TO GERALDINE OMG DID WANDA KILL HER
Oh no, not dead. Just kicked tf out of the bubble. I just realized the symbol is for Sword. Is this some sort of experiment to keep Wanda contained post Endgame? I should have read more spoilers, I’m fucking confused. 
Episode 4: OH HOLY SHIT IT’S MONICA RAMBEAU AND IT’S POST EG SNAP OH MY GOSH SHE HAS NO IDEA SHES BEEN GONE FOR FIVE YEARS MY HEART IS BREAKING MY HEART IS BREAKING I CAN’T TAKE IT 
It IS the cop that hit on Ant Man! WHAT DO THEY MEAN WESTVIEW DOESN’T EXIST 
Oh it’s Darcy! Damn straight it’s Dr. Lewis. How very shocking, a woman was the one to show a room full of Ridiculous Men what’s going on?
ZOMBIE VISION OH MY GOD “no we can’t” oh man she is starting to CRACK and Vision knows something is wrong OH NO 
At this point I should point out that I am 1000% surprised at the quality of the show and 1000% pleasantly surprised by how much I’m enjoying it. The bar for Wanda’s character development was literally subterranean, but this is has been frankly sort of amazing?? 
Episode 5
Agnes asking about “taking it from the top” WHAT. I love so much the way the characters “break character” it’s so interesting and well done! WHY IS WANDA LYING TO VISION. 
WHERE IS RALPH
oh my god the babies are children now?? why isn’t agnes noticing?? THEY’RE SO CUTE I COULD CRY ALL OVER AGAIN 
I do not. trust. hayward. Why is he asking about Wandas nickname? Monica knows whats up-- she knows Wanda is grieving and hurting. 
THE VISIONS CORPSE WHAT? WHAT IS WANDA DOING OH MY GOD SHE STOLE VISION. Vision has a living will? Don’t you have to be human for that? Are you telling me the woman that loved Vision would straight up ignore his wish to not be turned into a weapon after his death? I have a hard time with this. 
Oh no Vision is starting to worry me. He’s onto Agnes, he’s noticing Wanda getting careless...the boys are adorable though. Good on Agnes for not even flinching. 
DAMN RIGHT WANDA COULD HAVE TAKEN OUT THANOS LETS HAVE SOME RESPECT PEOPLE. Also, why is Monica being sketchy about Captain Marvel? 
EMAIL ALERT EMAIL ALERT “none of it is real.” oh my god what is happening?!?!
“Is this yours?” OH MY GOD. “This will be your only warning” she is so unafraid and I love her for it. I love her accent coming back when she breaks characters LOOK AT HER TURNING ALL THOSE MEN AROUND I LOVE HER. 
“Fix the dead” oh my god the shock on her face. The absolute irony of her trying to tell her boys there’s rules when she’s writing the playbook as she goes. Oh my god. “Can’t I?” Jesus, then the credits start rolling because she wants the episode to be over but Vision won’t let her OH MY GOD. My heart is breaking
WHAT DOES IT MEAN SHE DOESN’T KNOW 
SHE RECAST PIETRO
Episode 6
OOOOH look at the classic costumes! Pietro is slaying me. I mean, it’s the wrong pietro but its still very funny. The way Vision calls her out and then plays it off is.... spooky. She is fully aware thats not her brother. “Be good.” holy shit. 
Look at me not liking Hayward again. “which one is the sassy best friend” i feel like that’s....racist. “don’t use the last five years as an excuse to be a coward” DRAG HIM SIS 
Listen Uncle Pietro being a little shit head is my favorite. I use the OG Pietro in my fics but this one is hilarious. 
Vision lied about being on duty? Yikes. The one house where people are stuck in a loop? YIKES. Its crazy how everyone is starting to be super aware of Wanda pulling the strings--MAGIC CHILD OMG. 
Whats past ellis avenue? Is that the limit of Wanda’s powers? I don’t super understand how Vision has his powers if he’s technically dead. HE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT THE AVENGERS ARE she really just gave him enough life to exist just barely. Agnes knows he’s dead so she wasn’t snapped??
Agnes’s witchy laugh while dressed like a witch is legit awesome. We call that FOREEEEEEEEESHADOWING! Oh and there’s Ellis Ave. Got it. 
Monica’s blood is changed?? Idk how to feel about Black Character willing to die for White Charaxter? I mean I know Wanda should be Jewish but still. Uncomfortably close to icky tropes but maybe I’m reading too far into it.
YIKES where was she hiding the kids till now? How’d she do all this? “I’m not a stranger or your husband” YIKES.
OH MY GOD DEAD PIETRO
OH MY GOD VISION STAY IN THE BUBBLE SOMEONE SAVE HIM SAVE HIM OMG BILLY CAN HEAR HIS DADDY DYING SAVE HIM
“The people need help” oh Vision you are truly Worthy
She literally expanded her world to save him omg
DARCY WHERED YOU GO geez look at power of this girls mind it’s about damn time we got a glimpse at just how intense her powers are
Season 7
Ok is this like a reality show? Oh man she is GLITCHING.
Oh no it’s just Wanda not Wanda vision cos she feels alone? So sad. She really is losing it isn’t she and not in a “lol how awkward” sortnof way but in that truthful hard to watch way that so many of us feel when we’re at the breaking point
“I actually did bite a kid once” I literally ugly laughed right there
I KNEW I COULDNT TRUST HAYWOOD
It’s so nice to see Darcy used in a real way. Her character was totally wasted in Thor
The way Wandas little interviews get more and more sad :(
Uhhh what does that mean Agnes is quiet on the inside? Again with the Ralph thing. I’m starting to think there’s no Ralph at all??
LOOK AT THIS GIRL WITH HER SPACE ROVER . She’s got that same look of determination her mama had. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO HER WHY ARE HER EYES BLUE
“....soooo Wanda killed me?” I’m ugly laughing again and I shouldn’t be but the comedic delivery is excellent. The whole “office” vibe with the cameras is making an otherwise devastating episode fairly funny
LOOK AT THIS GIRL STANDING UP TO WANDA we love a sharp cheekbones beauty
“Maybe I already am” I mean, I would have loved to hear that post Ultron when for some reason everyone blamed Tony for everything?? But hearing it now is just horrifying and I hate it
Oh vision deciding to go get to his wife is beautiful.
WHERE ARE THE BABIES WHERE ARE THE BOYS OH MY GOD IM FREAKING OUT WHAT BASEMENT THATS NEVER GOOD
Uh hey what the fuck is up with Agness creepy basement of horrors??
AGATHA HARKNESS OH MY GOD
This song is a BOP wtf she deserves an Emmy for this shit
Snoopers gonna snoop what?
Episode 8
Of course it’s Salem, where else would a witch story start
“They simply bent to my power” What a queen
lmaoooo THAT ACCENT COMES AND GOES Agatha really said what we’ve all been thinking
Wait so Wandas power drew Agatha in? I thought maybe Agatha trapped her here?? SHE DOESNT KNOW WHAT WANDA IS
THE BABIES
Oh ouch this trip down memory lane is gonna hurt me isn’t it?
Oh no her mama I’m dying inside send help. The TV sitcoms. Oh my god is this her last memory before her parents died. HELP ME I CANT WATCH THIS
Oh my god, she had powers when she was little?? SHES NOT AN EXPERIMENT???
Listen I generally think telling a story retroactively is lazy writing? Just give us a well developed story the first time?? But this is BRUTAL and brutally well done.
SHE SAW HERSELF IN THE MIND STONE???
Would it have been so difficult for them to give us even a PEEK at this version of wanda vision in CACW? Marvel has the worst habit of just popping up like “oh hey these two love each other all the sudden with no real reason for it” but this is wonderful. So much character development.
Oh listen to this woman begging to be able to bury her husband omg. WAIT SO SHE DIDNT BREAK IN AND TAKE HIM?? WHAT ARE THEY DOING TO VISION?? DID HE PUSH HER INTO THIS PSYCHOTIC BREAK?? HE TOTALLY PLAYED HER INTO RECREATING VISION SHE JUST WANTED CLOSURE. He literally showed her visions dismembered corpse and said “say goodbye” I will kill this dude wtf
“I can’t feel you” guys I have to pause this so I can cry for a minute
“I can’t feel you” and then she leaves. Totally alone in the world. My heart is an empty husk.
Why the house though? Why west view?
OH FUCK ME UP ARE YOU KIDDING ME VISION WAS GOING TO BUILD THEM A HOUSE I CANT TAKE THIS ANYMORE
It’s not even real vision? Just the projection of her broken heart? “Welcome home” I am broken. Physically broken.
CHAOS MAGIC
SCARLET WITCH
I CANNOT
OH MY GOD WHITE VISION??? NO NO NO

Hey bitty, my friend i have another Au for you. I honestly have no idea what to call it, so its up to you.
Giants from the clouds come down to the ground and snatch away as many humans in sight, due to them being a main part of their diet.
So the leaders of the land of (insert any name) decied to use the people of the nation that they defeated, to test out a new magic collar they created.
This collar forces the wearer to do whatever the person who put the collar on them to do, if they disobey they are elecuted until they obey.
This is not the only thing the collar does to the wearer, it also cancels out the emotion of fear and it also turns them into a giant as long as they wear it.
(Also if the wearer trys to take it of, it wont work)
Of course the collar is invisable and can only be seen briefly when electryfying a disobent wearer.
So they placed the collar onto a young boy named Tubbo, who is forced to climb up the massive beanstalk/tree that leads him to the town in the clouds, his mission is to gather enough information to hopefully kill these giants.
However he quickly makes friends with a fearl looking giant, who he quickly learns his name is Tommy.
Tommy invites him over for dinner. His family seems shocked that tommy actually has a friend and celebrates by making it a massive feast.
Tubbo was kind of excited, since he hasn't had good food for a while, thats until he sees humans mixed amongest the food.
If he was able to feel fear he would have probably screamed in horror, so for once he was greatful for the collar stuck around his neck
He tells them, he is actually a vegetarian and tommy mutters saying he just like "eret" which quickly causes tommy's father to kick his son lightly.
So he offers tubbo some vegetables instead, which he greatful accepts.
(I do have a plan that the mastermind who constructed the collar tells Tubbo to kill One of the SBI later on but he refuses and is getting eletructed and thats when either the mastermind or the friendly giant eret revels Tubbo's true identify, which makes the SBI manly tommy feel betrayed, however if anyone wants to change or add anything feel free)
Also sorry for the bad writing, and again its me you boi -🐺
Poor Tubbo, being used to do the spying as an disposable resource. If he dies, they have more humans to use anyways.
I'm loving how Tommy literally just sees this new awkward giant and goes "You're my friend now." And Tommy says Tubbo's the clingy one.
And the feast. O o f. Tubbo wants to throw up, he wants to scream, anything. But the collar doesn't let him. So he only stampers out that he's a vegetarian, hoping that he can avoid eating fellow humans. Thankfully, Tommy's dad understands. Though Tubbo is now curious about this Eret fellow who doesn't eat humans. Is he another human in a situation like his own? Or are there giants who refuse to eat humans? He needs to know more now.
Some time passes and Tubbo and Tommy's friendship only grows. And then the mastermind tells Tubbo to kill Tommy, he's vulnerable with Tubbo now that Tubbo has his trust. Tubbo refuses and Tommy watches in horror as Tubbo falls to the ground screaming and clutching at his neck, where Tommy saw a collar appear for a brief moment.
Tommy quickly put two and two together. Tubbo was one of those human spies he had heard about. They were real. And his new friend was one of them. Tommy was heartbroken. But he also couldn't bear to see Tubbo in pain, so he stalked over and tore the collar off of Tubbo.
He watched in fascination as Tubbo started to shrink down until he was the size of a human. Tommy pocketed the collar so his family could look at it and figure out the humans' plans before reaching down and plucking Tubbo up by his middle with two fingers. He doesn't know whether to eat Tubbo since he's a human, keep him around for information since he was a spy, or to just spare him completely since he was his friend.
