💚 magic kiss either Oscar/Carlos or Oscar/Lando
omg ANON i had so little clue of where to start with this i had to panic crowdsource ideas from the gc (thanks guys!). then i decided to really challenge myself and write it as oscar/carlos even though i am not generally a carcar fan... unfortunately i must admit i had an absolute fucking whale of a time writing this lmao tysm for pushing me out of my comfort zone!
Carlos is waiting for him outside the FIA office after the post-race debrief with a face like a slapped arse. Rich, considering Oscar was the one who finished out of the points thanks to Carlos taking his front wing off on lap 32.
“I figured it out,” he says. 
Oscar looks at him askance, scrunching his nose. Behind him, Lando shoves his way past, catching Carlos on the shoulder with a squeeze as he does it. It makes a muscle on Oscar’s jaw twitch for no real reason.
“Remembered how to drive? Congrats.”
Carlos rolls his eyes and falls into step alongside Oscar as he tries to walk away. “No,” he says, insistent. He taps Oscar’s hand for emphasis, and Oscar stares at his forearm. There’s such a thing as having too much body hair. “It is a curse. A magnetism curse.”
“What?” Oscar scoffs. “Come off it. Reckon the FIA will cancel your penalty points if it’s a curse?”
“I am telling you,” Carlos says, but Oscar shakes him free. Magnetism curse. Honest to God, the excuses some people come up with.
-
Two weeks later, when Oscar locks up coming out of the pits on cold tyres and skids across the track straight into a bright red sidepod, he’s forced to admit Carlos may have been right.
He brings it up in the debrief, hesitant. Andrea tells him in no uncertain terms that, if his theory is correct, he needs to sort it out, and soon. Their position in the Constructors’ is under threat with only one car reliably scoring points.
“You know what the cure is, right?” Lando asks afterwards, smacking his gum. He looks unspeakably entertained.
“I’m not doing it,” Oscar says flatly. “I’ll just have to – drive better.”
“Uh huh,” Lando says, smirking. “He’s a goood kisser, you know. Wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.”
Oscar waits until he’s left the room before he kicks the wall.
-
They’re separated by five cars in Austria, and Oscar relaxes all the way until Turn 3, when Alonso brakes hard in front of him and in the resulting concertina, Carlos’ front left tyre connects with his right rear.
Puncture, pit stop, strategy fucked. 
For fuck’s sake.
-
Carlos is in his room when he gets back, sitting on the edge of the futon and flicking through a copy of Autosport Oscar had been reading between the practice sessions. 
“Jesus,” Oscar says, stopping in the doorway. “Did Lando let you in?”
Carlos shrugs, which Oscar takes as a yes. He stands up without preamble, squaring his shoulders like he’s ready for a fight. 
Oscar shuts the door and sighs. “Fine. Let’s get it over with.”
There’s a bit of awkward jostling as they both try to line themselves up, heads tilting in the same direction and the toe of Carlos’ trainer butting up against his own. Oscar makes a frustrated sound in the back of his throat, and then Carlos’ hand is on his jaw, carefully angling his head.
His lips are annoyingly soft, as plush as they look. When his lips part and his tongue dips into Oscar’s mouth, he tastes of black coffee, bitter and unfamiliar. His hand – big, though not that big, on the scale of things – slides around to the back of Oscar’s neck, warm and secure. He bites down on Oscar’s bottom lip before he pulls away, tugging the flesh gently. Lando wasn’t wrong, he thinks, dazed.
“Well,” he says, stepping back. Up close, his eyes are so dark Oscar can see tiny reflections of himself in them. “Hopefully that has made the trick.”
“Reckon so,” Oscar says, and tells himself the tingling in his fingers and the throbbing in his chest is the curse leaving his body.

1-3 months
Have a new baby at home was almost like having a guest in your home. Only your life revolves around them now and you’re constantly worried if they’re okay!
When you had gotten home from the hospital Keaton insisted that he was still sleepy and so stayed asleep meanwhile you and Noah were freaking a bit
“Is he supposed to sleep that much?”
“I mean his is a newborn so I guess it’s normal……is he breathing” *proceeds to put his finger under his nose “okay he is”
Keaton was more a day sleeper rather than at night….big problem. Here you were in your rocking chair trying to get him to sleep at 4:17 am. Your eyes were heavy, your arms felt like rock and you were really just ready to knock out right there. You didn’t tell Noah since he had some things to get done tomorrow
After half hour passed Noah came in rubbing his eyes and took Keaton from you
"Come on babe, it's my turn to watch him,"
"are you sure...*yawwwn* you have that meeting later today, I'll be-"
"Not gonna hear it. Get to bed now missy,"
You were so grateful to have Noah there to help you with as much as he does
Feeding, changing, bathing and night shifts were shared but he always made sure to take on a majority so you could rest more. While he did work still, he worked from home and if he had to take the whole day to help you he did.
The one thing that he did worry about was how small Keaton was. He was just so tiny in comparison to him. He held his entire body in his two hands!
He loved to do skin to skin, especially before going to sleep or while doing work at home. He knew that it was essential for bonding and just overall good for the baby. On top of that he really did enjoy just having Keaton lay on his chest and fall asleep.
When it came to breast-feeding, he was a very big help. He would help to get a good latch or he would help you with the breast pump and remind you about times and switch. Help you moisturize them to keep them from getting dry and cracked
There were nights where he would put Keaton to sleep. While he was in the rocking chair, he was just stared down at him while he stroked the soft hair on his head with his finger.
“ never really thought that I would be a dad…. Once we found out about you, it really did change everything. I swear I’m never going to leave you you need me”
He wants to give him the best life possible and the best dad that he can
3-6 months
So much development! Noah is just taken away by it! Now he's mimicking his faces, and sounds and he will spend HOURS just making faces and sounds or copying him
"babe, babe! Look he's copying me screaming face!" and he'd make his face then turn Keaton around to show you his face
He is convinced Keaton is more advanced than most kids so every time you go to the doctors he's just waiting for them to say they're perfect
the more he grows the more he looks like Noah but with your eyes. You spent 9 months carrying a copy of your husband for him to be his exact copy, but, he did take your attitude and personality
Noah swears that he gave him stank eye when he took the bottle away from feeding and said it looked exactly like you did
"Of course he is! Look at him!"
Noah Love tummy time with Keaton he was just so cute the way he smiled and giggled and tried to hold his head up. And yes He's let his head fall right on the floor and yes Noah has laughed while kissing his head better
Keaton seems to have a thing whenever Noah watches him that he just blows his diaper up almost on purpose. Noah thinks Keaton is entertained by it since he always giggles when he changes his diaper with a stank face.
yes Noah has gotten peed on
Keaton for the most part was a calm baby and seemed to like and be comfortable on schedule and would sleep and eat around the same times unless something happened
Whenever the guys are over he does hover. He hates to be called one and to admit it, but he is a helicopter parent (and it's really cute)
He 10000% takes milestone pictures every month to treasure his growth. Which by the way has cleared a wall in his studio to hand pictures of you guys on it.
Although he loves being hands on he also loves to watch you be a mom. The Keaton looked at you, how loving and soft you looked as a mom. The way your body has changed to create your baby always amazes him.
7-12 months
Keaton was now going through some changes and shifts some were better than others, including you not going to him as often when he cried. Which you hated and honestly Noah would just give in too because in his words it's
"dumb as fuck"
CRAWLING! EVERYWHERE! He underestimated how fast babies can be when they crawl But he loves to lay on the floor and let Keaton just crawl all over him or come and plop his body on his face
By now you're body has healed pretty well but still had some baby weight on you and Noah thinks you still look incredibly sexy
"but Noah look at this,"
"the body that popped out my beautiful son? Yeah I love it, now stop shit talking yourself before to bring Keaton to slobber on you"
Uses his baby as a threat against you by hold him above you and just letting his drool drip down on you (pure evil)
Speaking of drool, he's ben chewing on everything to get to his itchy gums. You noticed he started to grow teeth at around 7 1/2 month when he gave you an open mouth "kiss" you felt something rough and it was teeth! You R A N to Noah
"TEETH!"
"What?"
"TEETH!" and you just opened his mouth to show him the small stubs of teeth growing from the front gums. You were just glad you didn't catch it while you were breast feeding, welp, that means he's gonna have to bottle but you pump what you can
Now weening him was a little difficult. Even your pumped milk wasn't enough for him
"I mean, if you refused to give me your boob I'd cry too-" "Noah!"
Eventually through a lot of crying and one or two tantrums, he was moved on to bottles, now the issues was drying out your milk or whatever else was left
"If you want my hands are really big so I can just-"
"are you offering to milk me?"
"no.......maybe."
As for talking you guys have been trying to get him to say mama or dada any chance you got, but now it was a secret competition of who he would say first
Noah would basically spam him with the word Dada or Papa while you weren't around, and all lil Keaton would say was "mmmm" "buh. Buh" and blow raspberries
Now he did say his first words and it was when you had to go to a doctors appointment and he was getting fussy
"Say bye-bye to mama bud, she's gotta go"
"awh baby, I' don't want o leave you ether," you said kissing his chubby cheeks "mommy will be back soon okay?" while you hand him over to his dad he starts to whine and pout for you and said
"mama" in his sad voice as he chews at his cubby hand wanting you to stay
"HE SAID MAMA! HE SAID MAMA! Yes baby! I'm mama, that's me baby" you were ecstatic, while Noah was a bit disappointed he was still so proud to hear him say his first word, and at 8 months! You were a bit late to your appointment but hearing your baby say mama was much more important than the doctors.
but one of the biggest surprises was when he walked for the first time, and yes you both cried. It was actually at rehearsals for an upcoming show near home so you went with the guys and of course Keaton had his sound protection you were on the side of the stage holding Keaton up by his hands as you encouraged him to dance as his father sang. As he bounced up and down he was also padding his feet a lot and was just so excited for his daddy who was just out of reach
You start to move with him one foot at a time as he started to walk just a bit faster seeing how much closer he was getting to Noah, Noah turned and he saw you walking with Keaton as he held on to your fingers and crouches down with a big smile on to his knees holding out one of his arms
and just like that he let go of your fingers and stumbled his way to Noah, tripping on the last step but caught by his papa, Noah just picks him up and hides his face in his little shoulder and you know he felt emotional. An entire year went by and he didn't know how it went by so quickly, how much he had grown and how much you both had grown as parents, he comes over to you and kisses your head as Keaton just giggles as you both smoosh him in a kiss
"well, one year down."

Hi. Sorry to bother you. I dont know if you are taking requests. But if you are could you write maybe an aemond x niece reader where they are taking a stroll, with ser criston accompaning them, in the corridors in the middle of the night because they left the library, the nursemaid of her brother viserys comes to them with the child claimimg he wont fall asleep without his sister. So reader tells her that she will take her brother to his chambers but viserys ends up loving aemonds eyepatch soche carries his cousin to his chambers where they talk about dragons and fluff. Next day aemond asks reader tovmarry him . Sorry for the long ask. Again sorry to bother you.
I hope this is what you wanted!
”Kȳvanon”
1,295 words
Dragon discussion was a pretty much copy-paste from asoiaf wiki.
Betad and cowritten by my husband.
You were visiting your cousin, Aemond. He may be your uncle really, but your mother, the Princess Rhaenyra, certainly encouraged this. She thought it would make the family seem more normal. Targaryens were not normal. They have special rules under the Faith of the Seven, and none of that even includes the Dragons.
You also didn’t want to think of him as your uncle, when he looked like the way he did. It was easier for your mind to give in to your fantasies. Much easier. In fact you were thinking about Aemond’s hands right then. You saw how he caressed the spines of the oldest books in the Keep’s library. He was visiting with Ser Criston. Criston kept a few paces back when you started conversing with Aemond.
“It’s late, Princess.”
“Perhaps, but we can keep walking. The night is peaceful and the rest of the family is sleeping.”
You groaned when you heard the baby’s cries. Your little brother, Viserys, and his wet nurse were walking down the hall coming from the direction of the nursery. She looked ragged as she attempted to calm him.
“There you are!” She exclaimed. “I’ve been trying to calm him for two hours. He’s not hungry, he’s not dirty, he only seems to calm down with you, as of late.” She looked at you with pleading eyes.
“We can help.” Aemond offered.
You looked at him in shock. Surely he didn’t like children? You stared at him. He looked back and cocked up the eyebrow over his good eye. “What?”
“I’ve never seen you want to be around children.”
“I’m full of surprises,” he said, muttering under his breath afterwords thinking you couldn’t hear him, “you will certainly find out.”
This gave you pause. Surely he isn’t flirting? While you wondered what he meant, he took Viserys into his arms and rocked him gently. The babe looked up at his face, focusing in on his eyepatch. The child was silent, and looked at the rest of Aemond’s face. You couldn’t help but look, either. Aemond looked so relaxed. You wondered if he would be like this with his own kids.
Aemond walked beside you carrying your brother up to the nursery. Your brother kept trying to get his small hands on Aemond’s eyepatch. As he almost pulled it off, you took Viserys’s hand. “No, Viserys. That is not yours, is it?”
Viserys looked at you and dropped Aemond’s eyepatch to reach for you. Aemond passed him over and Viserys was happy in your arms for the rest of the way to the nursery.
You and Aemond sat with your brother tucked into bed. After Viserys asked Aemond to tell him about the dragons that once roamed Valyria.
“Are you a dragon rider like my mother, father, and sister?” Viserys asked Aemond.
“Yes, I am.”
“Where did dragons come from? No one from my family knows.”
“Nobody knows for sure. There are several legends regarding the origins of dragons. The Valyrians claimed that dragons sprang forth from the Fourteen Flames, a ring of volcanoes on the Valyrian Peninsula. In Qarth, tales state dragons came from a second moon in the sky, which was scalded by the sun and cracked like an egg, and a million dragons poured forth.” He sat at the foot of Viserys’s bed. “Dragons are also said to have originated from the Shadow Lands beyond Asshai and the Islands of the Jade Sea.” You smiled at Aemond’s knowledge, he looked irresistible when he acted as the scholar.
“Can dragons fly anywhere?”
“Dragons once populated most of the known world. Ancient dragon bones have been found as far north as Ib and as south as the jungles of Sothoryos. There are sea dragons in the Sunset Sea and ice dragons in the Shivering Sea.” Aemond saw you smiling and continued. “You know, Valyrians were originally a civilization of shepherds. They mastered the art of raising dragons, and used them as weapons of war to carve out a massive empire, The Valyrian Freehold.”
“How did they gain the trust of the dragons?”
“The Valyrians are said to have used binding spells and sorcerous dragon horns to control their dragons. They conquered the Old Empire of Ghis in the Ghiscari wars, and hundreds of dragons were employed by Valyria during the Rhoynish Wars.”
“What happened to them? Father says there aren’t many left.”
“The Doom of Valvria. The Fourteen Flames and every hill for five hundred miles exploded, filling the air with ash and smoke and fire which killed even the dragons in the sky. The dragonlords and dragons gathered in Valyria were also Killed, but the Targaryens survived. After the Doom and the chaos that ensued, the only dragons known to have survived were on the island of Dragonstone. They belonged to House Targaryen, who had brougnt five dragons from Valyria when Lord Aenar Targaryen and his tamily emigrated twelve years before. Four of those dragons eventually died on Dragonstone, leaving only Balerion. However, the other dragons left eggs behind, and from these hatched Vhagar and Meraxes. Balerion was eventually claimed by Lord Aegon Targaryen before he became King. Vhagar was ridden by Queen Visenya Targaryen during Aegon’s Conquest, alongside Aegon the Conqueror's Balerion and their sister Rhaenys's Meraxes. Now I ride Vhagar, the largest dragon in Westeros. Your sister claimed Vermithor. And one you will ride Valaenor, the dragon born to you.”
Visery reached for Aemond’s eye patch again and you softly pressed his hands down. “Viserys, what did I tell you?”
“It all right.” Aemond took off the patch and handed it to Viserys. You had never seen Aemond’s sapphire, but now it shined in the light coming from the fireplace. Viserys seemed to calm down with the eyepatch in his hands.
You smiled at the way Aemond so easily gave up the patch that had been covering his missing eye and the way Viserys held it & started falling asleep. You took Aemond’s hand and led him out of the room. Once in the hall, the corners of your mouth turned up in a smile when he looked at you. “Thank you for the help. That was much easier than usual.”
He felt his heartbeat in his chest when you looked at him without avoiding his sapphire or looking uncomfortable. “I’m happy to help.”
Your face burned from the attention and you looked at the ground. “Thank you for giving him your patch. That was really nice.”
“Don’t tell anyone, but I would do anything for you.”
You looked at each other again and you both noticed you were glancing at each other’s lips. You made the first move. You leaned in and kissed him. You were never like this and yet you couldn’t help yourself any longer. He kissed you back. His hands found your face and, though it seemed like ten minutes, it was only a five-second kiss.
The next day, Aemond walked up to you out in the garden. He embraced you briefly, with a kiss on the cheek. You felt a slight disappointment that perhaps last night was a fluke; that maybe he viewed it as a mistake. Then he leaned in and kissed you again, with more intensity. You smiled at the thought it wasn’t going to be over already. He took your hand in his and lead you around the grounds. “I had been to see your father last night, and I had to ask him something.”
You looked at him with confusion in your eyes.
“Princess, would you like to be my wife, and I, your husband?”
You almost laughed because you were so full of joy. “I would be honoured to be your wife and have you as my husband.”

GONE — N. KENTO
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
🎧au — husband! nanami x gn! reader ft. Yuji Itadori |🎧ft — ansgt <3 | 🎧cw — characer death lol, crying, nothing else | 🎧wc — 485
🎧 raven's note — missing my husband aka nanami aka the ***** ** ** ******** aka the one I'd do anything and everything for
Tumblr media
“Where is he?” 
Your eyes are darting everywhere trying so desperately to find him. They go from one place to another without stopping and Yuji feels his heartbreak at the sight of you. 
You spotted him from meters away and ran to where he was. To where you thought your husband was. But when you reached the place Itadori was alone and it only made the pit in your stomach deeper. 
“Yuji, where is Kento?” you ask. 
Kento. Nanami Kento. Your Kento isn’t in your vision in this battle field and you feel like it’s killing you. 
It’s the use of Nanami’s first name that makes Yuji snap out of daze. He’s never heard you call your husband by his first name. It was always a sweet ‘Ken’ or ‘baby’ or ‘darling’ or whatever loving nickname was on your tongue, never Kento. 
“He’s,” Yuji starts but the rest of the sentence can’t seem to come out. Tears brim in his eyes as he thinks of Nanami in his last moments. 
You blink up at him, your eyes finally settling on him. “He’s what Yu? Did he get called somewhere else? I swear if that's the case then I’ll never let him hear the end of it. I mean leaving you out alone in this—”
“Gone,” Yuji says, stopping your rambling. “He’s gone Y/n. I’m sorry.”
There’s a ringing in your ears at his words. The world feels as if it’s spinning fast, your breathing gets faster and faster as the words repeat in your head. “Gone where?”
Itadori can’t answer your question. He moves forward hugging you as he lets his tears drop onto your shirt. “I’m sorry,” is all he can whisper out. 
You stand there stunned, arms stuck to your sides, eyes wide and full of tears. The ring on your finger feels heavier than it ever has. 
After a few minutes, Yuji separates from you, his eyes are red, puffy and still full of tears. “This is all I got back,” he says, voice wavering. With shaky hands he pulled the ring that always decorated Kento’s ring finger. 
When you see it all your strength leaves your body. Your knees drop onto the hard concrete but the pain feels like nothing compared to the one in your heart. You can vaguely make out Yuji calling out your name but the ringing is back. 
All you want is for your husband to be back with you. 
All you need is your Kento to be safe and in your arms again. 
But fate is cruel because it ripped him away from you and now you’ll never get to hold him again. Never get to feel his touch, or his lips on your skin. You’ll never get to hear the soft call of your name from those lips, or experience your late night dates.
Because he’s gone and you’ll never have him back again.

what are some headcannons you have for Classical Branch? Like, are there any scenes you got in your head?
Sorry it took me so long to get to this one, anon!
So he stims by using conducting gestures, both with a baton/wand and just his hand. Classical Trolls, at least Dante, seem to do this as Dante tries to conduct a sign hanging, but there may be other reasons for this in canon so I will say Branch specifically is stimming.
Of all the Branches, he remembers his brothers the least.
He was very overwhelmed by how interested everyone was in him at first. It felt a bit like the fake niceness of Pop but he soon realized that politeness was not the same as fake.
He's the least 'rugged' of all the Branches. He hasn't fully abandoned his outdoorsy interests but he did get sucked into the wonderful world of etiquette.
He copies a lot of Dante's mannerisms due to Dante being his tutor. He learned his manner of speech and etiquette from Dante (and Trollzart) so he copied some things that weren't necessarily meant to be taken in as part of the lessen. Essentially? He has a Dante accent when speaking Classical. As he gets older it goes away some but most adults thought it was really cute.
He swears the same way Minuet does - shouting random musical terms. 'Fortissimo! Sforzando!' In the context of Classical culture, they aren't 'swear words' but shouting them randomly and angrily is akin to yelling 'FUCK' at the top of your lungs. Language with them is more about intent so really anything you yell to replace a swear just becomes a swear. Yelling 'Cupcakes' when you stub your toe will get the same reaction as if you'd just dropped an f-bomb because to a Classical Troll, you did.
He will and has grabbed Classical Trolls out of the air in an attempt to be protective. He once thought a Bergen was nearby and grabbed Trollzart and hugged him like a teddy bear. Trollzart, Dante and Minuet are somewhat used to it.
Synth canonically bonds with all 3 named Classical Trolls in Trollstopia (Dante, Minuet, Forte), which even Demo wasn't shown to do (as he never met Forte) so I imagine he just gets along well with Classical Trolls, possibly due to the fact that a lot of Techno music doesn't have vocals similar to Classical so the two tribes can mesh well in that way. I imagine Synth has similar success with Branch when/if they meet.
He only writes with a quill and inkwell and he may have forgotten how pens work a bit.
He managed to successful turn a violin bow into an archery bow, where he used another violin bow as the arrow. He would have gotten detention for that but his form was flawless so they couldn't say anything. (They could, they were just REALLY impressed with how he managed that.)
If he were to live in Trollstopia he would own both a Hug Watch and Bow Watch and switch between the two as he felt he needed.

Okay, so lemme ramble about the Wild Hunt for a sec, given the new episode, because I am certain there is/will be symbolism at play
Essentially, the Wild Hunt is this germanic (though there's many similar ones around the world) myth. It's this horde of spirits/ghosts that travels through the night on an eternal hunt. Crossing their path is generally seen as a big no-no and a good way to become part of the horde of hallowed dead stuck in the eternal hunt. The same goes for copying their sounds of howling wind (and sometimes barking dogs). However, either of these can be rewarded (usually with something that seems worthless and usually turns out to be gold)
Now, for that sweet symbolism. First of all, the Wild Hunt usually consisted of the hallowed dead. They didn't get to pass onto the afterlife, instead bring swept up by the hunt. In the story this more than likely is replaced by those floating eyeball thingies - the souls of those who got stuck in this world before the afterlife
What I'm more curious/concerned about though is who leads it. It's most certainly someone's Phantom, given the little card with abilities. But who could it be? Let's use some clues from both the episode and the myth
First, the episode. There's 3 main things to consider here. 1) this phantom was outside the gate (and thus also unlikely to be a dean or student). 2) your phantom has to do with how you die (this also ties in with the myths). 3) looking at it's abilities, it has something called 'overclock', and while this could be some sort of rage mode, I think it'd make more sense if it means that this Phantom form can stay up either for a long-ass time, or straight up indefinitely
Now, for the myths. The figure who leads the Hunt actually changes a lot depending on the specific telling, and it's been both men and woman. A largely common factor though is that they get stuck in the Hunt after exclaiming their love for hunting, and something along the lines of wishing they could do it forever (potentially specifically instead of an actual afterlife). Given the thing I said before, I think it's a fairly safe bet the person who's Phantom it is died hunting, or at the very least pursuing something
The person who leads the hunt also seems to be searching for Lenore specifically, which is interesting to me. The Wild Hunt generally hunts animals, not people. So I propose 2 possibilities:
1, mythological: The Wild Hunt, like I said, should generally not be interacted with according to most myths. A possibility is that Lenore or on of her predecessors did do that in some way, shape, or form. Maybe in the real world, but Phantoms can't really be there I think? Maybe someone else like her brother or parent were also in this between dimension and messed with it, though I don't believe that's how it generally works. But maybe that thing at the start of the story, where they got noticed by those monsters, was actually them getting noticed by the Hunt, which is why it's now after her (and likely Annabel too in that case)
2, relationship driven: Essentially, my other idea is that the Phantom that is the Hunt is going after Lenore specifically because of who she is. Maybe her father died or something? But in that case I think her brother is way more likely. Think about it, Theo was first looking for (pursuing?) Lenore. The tree got knocked down by lightning (one of the Phantom's abilities). And he was riding his horse when he was killed. Just saying, it could be possible
Also, interestingly enough, both Lenore and Annabel have a certain degree of connection to the Night Hunt? Lenore has already denounced the 'natural' way passing onto the afterlife is supposed to go in favour of having herself and all her friends coming back to life, somewhat reminiscend of the leaders of the hunt commonly rejecting the afterlife in favour of their hunt. And the woman that led the Hunt in some stories likely all stem from the same figure, the supposed Old Mother Frost (and what, if I may ask you, is Annabel's ability?)
No matter who it is though, I'm hoping they touch on that idea of someone who crosses the Wild Hunt (and shows cleverness/boldness) sometimes gets rewarded. And while is generally looks useless at first, it often turns out to be valuable. Who knows, this endeavor just might be the key to escaping...
...well, that or I'm looking way too deep into it and the writer just chose the Wild Hunt because it looks/sounds cool and vaguely fitting of spirits of the night coming to get you. I mean, most thing I just said are honestly closest to incoherent rambling with vague connections, but who knows...
This is nevermore, you’re NEVER looking too deep into it
IM MAIN TAGGING THIS THIS IS AMAZING
I think it could be Theo? We know SOMETHING happened to him as he was at the top of his class. Was he reincarnated? I doubt it. Theo is also connected with deer and hunting. Would also explain why the Wild Hunt (which Lenore thinks is her curse) seems to be targeting her and her family.

Mondstadt Sagau Shimegi AU Drabbles
I'm Alive! 
Sorry this took a hot minute to put out, but here's the Mondstadt edition of the Shimeji AU. I did every playable character from Mondstadt, some of them have shorter sections *cough* Mika *cough* simply because they haven't had much screen time in the game or I don't know them well enough. In the future I might do an update post for some of them. Also this should be treated like crack. Now that this is out I can move on to actually writing the First chapter of To Build A Haven which should be up soon.

ALBEDO:
Curious but not a menace 
He looks at everything your doing with absolute interest 
He wanders around looking at what you're doing and writing what he observes down on a notepad. 
If He’s really interested in something on the page you're on like a photo or text he will snag it to get a closer look (for those who don't know there is a function that allows shimeji to grab items and take them off screen, this can be reversed by simply refreshing). 
He gets a little miffed when you refresh to get the item back in its correct place but he's not upset for long. 
If you leave your computer he will end up messing around and looking up articles on chemistry and physics, he tried searching up alchemy and he just got led down a rabbit hole that he later found out was all fake.
So there's no alchemy in your world, interesting! 
Uhh Oh! He accidentally duplicated! 
He’s immediately on guard once he sees the duplicate
Is that his twin! No wait, the mark on the twins neck is there!
He realizes it is just a full carbon copy of him that just wanders around mindlessly.
He will get a little antsy if you let the duplicates get out of hand in their numbers so make sure to dismiss the duplicates 
He just wants to study this strange world in peace. 
AMBER:
She confused as hell. 
She waves to you whenever you return from getting up from your computer 
She is the opposite of a menace. 
She almost is too helpful 
She sees her knightly duty in this weird in between world to be of help to you. 
If you're easily distracted while working on something like a document she will wave her hands around and try to get your attention so you get back to work. 
And while she is not an expert in grammar she’ll try her best to point out errors in your sentencing. 
When you're not working on something important she has a lot of fun climbing the walls of your screen and jumping off to glide across your screen. 
If you pick her up with your  cursor and toss her she’ll laugh and glide down
Don't shake her though! She’ll get dizzy!
BARBARA: 
Shy babbie!
At first she's kinda cowering in the corner so confused as to what's happening and in awe of your presence. 
Eventually she chills out a bit but she never fully relaxes.
You got spotify going in the background?
Great! This is how Barbara got introduced to (insert music genre here) or (insert artist here) 
She will be scandalized if you play something with profanity, innuendos, or sexual references.
Like full clutching of pearls
Do not play Squidwards Nose for her. She is sweet baby, she doesn't deserve that. 
I'm sorry if some of yall dont like what I'm about to say… but the moment you play one of Taylor Swift's songs she's hooked.
I'm talking like something from Folklore, Evermore, or Midnights.
Her favorites are Clean, Willow, and Snow on the Beach (she does not like the F bomb in that one though)
She does try to give everything you listen to a fair shot even if it might not be her style.
If she likes the song she will sing and dance along to it.
BENNETT: 
He fall over all the time 
So Bennett will be like climbing the side of your screen and will lose his grip and fall. 
If you catch him he'll be so happy.
Hes kinda wandering around your page
He do be trippin (and not in the fun way) 
There was this time where he picked up one of the items on your screen and didn't know how to set it down.
He ran around scared and confused until you refreshed the page. 
If you pick him up and shake him, he will get dizzy. 
DILUC: 
He’s pretty chill 
He will start wandering the internet if you leave him alone with your computer open
Hopefully he doesn't find your fanfics
Who introduced him to Batman?!?!
JUSTICE FOR MONDSTADT!!!
Not that big into the superhero movies but he does really connect with Batman, who would have guessed. 
Show him the Mt. Dew wine or the Peeps Wine from TikTok and the disappointment will be so evident on his face. 
That's not even wine 
If you do bring up some articles on wine brewing and aging techniques he will read them and take some of the methods to possibly use at Dawn Winery. 
DIONA: 
She small she baby 
Normally she’s chill
But If you drink in her presence be prepared to experience the menace of menaces
Every time you leave your computer unattended expect to come back to either your browser being on a local AA group website or on a study showing the impacts of alcohol on the body. 
She aggressively points at what's on screen whenever you come back
She can be reasoned with if you give her a pat.
She can also be pacified by one of those videos of birds meant for cats
She also likes those games made for cats where it's like a bug or ants crawling across the screen and you gotta crush them. 
She tries to jump around the screen but she short, holding her up to catch all the crawlies. 
EULA:
Eula is confused by modern internet slang 
She mainly stands guard in the corner not wanting to get in your way 
She's in the overly respectful gang 
Don't pick her up and shake her she will seek revenge
Likes the cat videos on facebook though
She like the “going no contact with toxic family” type videos on TikTok since she can relate. 
Boomer but she working on it 
FISCHL:
Who let this theater major in the building?
She is by far the most distracting shimeji you can have on your browser 
“The Prinzessin der Verurteilung desires your attention at all hours” 
When your working you literally have to dismiss her if you want to get work done
If you leave her on screen when you leave your computer you will come back to her somehow reading Twilight.
The can of worms has been opened and Fischl's Twilight phase has been unleashed.
She also grows to love shakespeare if you ever have to read one of his works for a class
Holds up skull “Alas poor Yorick”
She does hate The Taming of the Shrew (if you know you know)   
JEAN: 
Like her sister she is also a bit confused 
This internet lingo is so confusing 
This is a facebook mom 
How did she get an account? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 
The funny thing is is that she successfully and pretty accurately shuts down alot of bigoted people 
She gain like a cult following of converted beige housewives 
KAEYA:
He isnt distracting like Fischl is but he’s like a cat who wants attention so they climb over your keyboard until you gotta move them and give them pets. 
Menace 
He’s the worst when it comes to fishing your fics out of your files when your away 
You gotta lock them up, time to move everything to your phone… rip storage space. 
You accidentally introduce Kaeya to his new guilty pleasure besides Wine… Horse Girl Movies!!!!
It's bad… It's really bad, his favorites are the movies Spirit and Felicity (yes the American girl movie).
The man misses his horse, why do the favonius cavalry have no horses? the captain of the calvary should have a horse!
He also is somewhat interested in the wine industry from around your world. 
He might give you a list of types he would like you to bring if you ever visit their world. 
KLEE:
Protect this one because she's so smol.
But also keep her from blowing up your documents-
She picks up whatever she wants and will set it down in the wrONg place but if you scold her about it she’ll give you puppy eyes and apologize.
And then do the exact same thing not ten minutes later.
She will wander around wherever she can so do not let her out of your sight. Open tabs, downloads, files, browser history, nothing is safe.
LISA:
similar to albedo in that she is curious about everything.
She likes that she can chill out and read whatever comes on screen
One of the worst if she finds your writing
She will correct your grammar and give suggestions while actively flirtily mocking your work. 
Likes making you flustered in the middle of work 
She requested you make her a playlist on spotify so you sit down and show her a few artists you think she would like 
She adds a bunch of music from (Hayley Kyoko, Muna, Clario, Mxmtoon, and Janelle Monae) 
She listens to it when she's on your computer and you aren't around while she looks through the internet.
MIKA:
I don't know this child!!! 
Literally I know nothing, hopefully he gets more character time in future quests
I'll come add more latter if we are given more 
Spawn in a Len(vocaloid) Shimeji and he’ll be so confused 
Who is this doppelganger! 
MONA:
Girl is going insane learning our world's zodiac system!
You have to dismiss her sometimes because she asks so many questions, some of which you don't know the answer to. 
“What Do You Mean? It's Considered A Pseudoscience!!!” 
She is beyond insulted if you don't believe in astrology.  
If you do believe in astrology she's so excited 
Give her your Natal chart and she’ll be ecstatic
After she learns everything she can about your world's astrology, whenever you boot up your computer she’ll give you your horoscope for the day.   
NOELLE:
She’s so polite! :D
Doesn’t do much climbing, but when she does it’s to clean the cobwebs in the corners of your tabs.
Will remind you to drink water and have stretch breaks every so often and will be very sad if you don't.
You better clear your browser history before she tries to take a broom to it. she doesn’t deserve to see what you look at, you degenerate fifth.
She either likes ICP or studio ghibli soundtracks; there is no inbetween.
RAZOR:
Precious Puppy™
He is very confused by the internet but he’s still very curious . 
Will patiently watch you work and will bite pop-up ads
Starts looking up pictures of wolves cause he's a precious baby and ends up in the furry community. He is very confused. He is very scared. Save him before he learns what an omega is.
ROSARIA: 
She's chill 
She's easily bored so she will on occasion if you are doing work just dip out 
How did she figure out how to dismiss herself?
Most of the time she leaves when your working 
She will stay if there is a church event back on Teyvat that she wants to get out of. 
If you summon Fischl they will both watch Twilight together 
Though Rosaria will leave after the first movie, she doesn’t like any of the other movies. 
She also has a few strong opinions on the way that Stephanie Meyer handled Native Americans in the book. 
SUCROSE: 
very curious and intrigued by the internet and will watch you work from the top of your tab and take notes.
will ask a bunch of questions about and google the answers when you leave.
got into a fight with a redditor about something sciencey you didn’t understand and battled that man for hours.
She won.
She likes watching ted talks and documentaries when you’re on break and wiLL get lost in wikipedia if you let her. Please don’t let her because she is very small and that website is very big. 
VENTI: 
#1 MENACE!!!
He's up about climbing the walls and flying all about the screen. 
If you are trying to get work done good luck 
If you ask he will sit down and be somewhat quiet 
If you listen to music while you work he will either be singing along to it or if the BPM is fast enough singing and dancing along with the music. 
He likes listening to the music you listen to because he can learn what to perform if you ever come to Teyvat.
He at first will be thrown off if you listen to something that's more on the sexual side ( im talking something like Ayesha Erotica, or cupcakKe) but eventually he gets used to it and has a lot of fun distracting you when those types of songs come on. 
Like Kaeya, he is also interested in the wine from your world. 
You have to tell him to narrow down the list he gives you of wines to bring to Teyvat… it was 2 pages long.

Egg Preg Ask
Tumblr media
OG Message: Oh God, I'm the wrong person to ask because I have Tokophobia 😰 I've also never had baby fever (/flex, lol) or an interest in this topic, but anyway I'm gonna do my best!
So you get eggpreg which... lmao characters enjoying laying unfertilized eggs are one of my biggest kinks. 😂 I don't know if this is going to do it for you because it's mostly my stupid ideas about biology, but I now have a good excuse to ramble about my very specific headcanons that I have not had the nerve to.
An Attempt is Made (Do not question my “logic” and “science” I will cry. I know I'm not smart enough for this, but they're my brainrotten and plausible ideas for how I can have my kink lol)
Edit: Forgot a somewhat important part about all of this it's added under "Additional Headcanons"
Backstory: Prior to the release of Nightbringer I had the idea that Father created Barbatos before the Angels and Humans as a servant. Barbatos was a solution to his loneliness, his waifu companion. He was also a part of his plan for the formation of Celestial Realm, Devildom and Human World. Father gave Barbatos power, but not equal to his own (not omniscient or omnipotent and his power of creation is limited to copying and modifying what already exists. BUT due to his time-space abilties Barbatos technically does have omniscience through his past and future vision but only through direct observation/examination. As mentioned in OM he doesn't want to know everything because as he said “that would be boring”. He is not easily surprised so I have reason to believe he can identify patterns or has already experienced a specific outcome, just by living/observing a different branch of it.)
He was entrusted as the Guardian of Time and Space and alternately was the creator/designer of the Devildom and the Demon race. While Father created the Garden of Eden and Humanity, Adam and Eve etc. Barbatos reproduced himself over the period of ???k years thereby populating each “AU” with a copy of himself to create an infinite amount of him with the original as the root of this self made tree. He prepared the Devildom and its Primordial Forest for the coming Demonic version of Adam and Eve, the first King and Queen, aka his “kids” (along with all of the other races that populate Hell). This was the generations of Peace and Innocence when they had a near Utopia. He makes all his “offspring” through his Divinely given DNA manipulation abilities. So while humankind developed its races and genetic diversification as necessary for survival (part of Adam and Eve's curse) Barbatos copied it because he found it beautiful and wanted it for his Demons. (For example in the Devildom there is no sunlight, but he created Demons with a wide array of melanin from the deepest complexion to complete albinism.) Essentially, Barbatos is a genetic designer CRISPR IN THE BARBUSSY . All of the mythological animals still exist in the Devildom because Barbatos/the Demons took care of them and didn't hunt them to extinction. His “kids” were obedient so he could hang out with them unlike A and E (who he caused the fall of because Barbatos has daddy issues too in the version where he made the Devildom himself)
Genetic Recombination: Barbatos's biology is unique, he reproduces through parthenogenesis, in effect creating clones. He uses genetic recombination and editing to create his offspring and lays all eggs that he “parents” without a need for fertilization. Because they are pure there was no viral genetic insertion or physical or mental defects (I wish I could eliminate mine so this is a Utopia scenario. I hope that isn't offensive, but I ask that you please disregard anything you may disagree with.) The drawback is that his demons did not have immunity and until he learned how to combat it they were vulnerable. At times thousands of them died due to this, attacks or animals that carried infectious diseases (You-know-whats carried a Devildom variation of Plague) because unlike in the Garden of Eden the Devildom beasts were aggressive and already divided into predator and prey as part of his design. Alternately, as of NB he changed from benevolent and involved to more Darwinian and “kid with an ant farm” approach. In this manner when he strengthened and gave his offspring power they developed a War like and tribal beginning. Once this generation had become established they dominated every part of the Hell. (Nightbringer just took that a step muuuuuuuch farther with his parasitization and genocide over the Fairy Lands. EVEN I AM NOT THAT DARK.)
Parts:
Biology
Egg!Preg Headcanons,
Additional Egg Laying characters and Headcanons
Barbatos is in his VERRRRRRRRRRRY advanced years, but Demons don't experience menopause. Rather they can suppress ovulation. So now he can schedule or regulate his ovulation cycle. He has been taking care of Diavolo for 10k or more years and has been single for who even knows how long before that because he just did not care about anyone else other than the young Master so children and childrearing is the last thing on his mind. Luke meets the need to mentor and parent, plus he already went through the teen/twenties years with Solomon AND Diavolo so likewise that need was met.
He can be affected strongly enough by his partner to start ovulating kind of like an Omega in ABO I suppose, but there is no caste involved. As there are VERY few who are more powerful than him and I find ABO intolerably sexist.) A conscious or subconscious desire to have a child/children will also stimulate that. He will then enter a fertile period of about a week before the process of developing an egg (whether he has been fertilized or not.) and lays it at the end of a month.
For any potential child(ren) he plans EVERYTHING: In modern times he will ensure that he has a fully equipped nursery, that his schedule is arranged in advance to accommodate childbearing and rearing, the location which he lays and also whether there will be a party. Of course there is a party! How, what and where the party Diavolo will want to throw in order to celebrate this new life will be out of his hands, but he persuades him to wait until AFTER hatching. He conceals his eggnancy from their friends, it's business as usual, but in private he and his partner will be excited about starting their own little family (Diavolo counts, but he won't be the Baby Boy anymore, promoted to big brother!) He would also have his health checked and get himself into peak physical condition. (How do you improve on perfection though??)
Barbatos will also write in a leatherbound journal up to 50 years of planning into the future, his notes, thoughts and little messages. He is not known for flexibility or idleness, but this is more for his peace of mind and his way of writing letters for his child about him and his partner (Diavolo not knowing his mother weighs heavy on his mind. Not that he or his partner would die, but this is also for peace of mind and therapeutic for him. Barbatos would ensure he and his partner's survival no matter the cost lol) Shopping for baby clothes is fun, but he is definitely sewing a wholeass wardrobe for the baby/babies. He quilts and knits blankets, sews stuffed animals and together he and his partner plan out a nursery to be constructed in their bedroom. Diavolo wasn't allowed to throw a baby shower, so instead he gives them his own childhood nursery for when the baby is older and shows them both his baby album (that Barbatos has expanded on to this very day and treasures more than any other possession.) and his toys.
Physically: He will have increased appetite, heightened senses and energy levels, particularly smell, hearing and taste. His pain tolerance is higher as Demons enjoy very rough “baby making”. He will be more intense and eager during his pampering and romantic serving for mood setting/date becaue his engine is going. Sleep will be increased because when he "tries for a baby” his usual “they have cuddles and pillow talks and then he rolls over and goes to sleep for thirty minutes, and then gets up to get back to check in on Diavolo and resume his extensive list of duties” becomes more “like cuddles up and promptly passes out and sleeps for 9 hours solid". This is why he is averse to even just his unfertilized egg laying cycles because it negatively impacts his work!
Behaviorally/Emotionally: He will be much more observant and wary of the people around him, it's survival instincts and mama's intuition. He'll be much more physically affectionate with his partner and willing to be honest about his needs. He's more open to being emotionally vulnerable (without intoxication or OM's typical contrivances like Aphrodisiacs and Spells.) He has some strange urges too.
(Bypassing Conception because this is SFW)
Prenatal: when he's in the next stage (immediately after fertilization, or at the end of the ovulation cycle if not) he will need certain foods to produce his egg (+child.) This is partly why he became so knowledgeable and interested about food, nutrition and diet. At the very beginning of his reproductive life (aka almost immediately, as the first Demon he reproduced by parthenogenesis for an unknown amount of time which populated the many many many parallel universes which has now been rendered headcanon only by Nightbringer…maybe.) He intuitively knew what his body needed through cravings, but over time he analyzed and experimented and determined that his offspring were affected by environment, diet and his health (such as during war, famine, plagues and less dramatic things such as stress, common illnesses and infections) as well as the critical stages of development during shell formation and laying. So now he goes into it prepared and does his own prenatal stuff. Even if the babies are genetically perfect they aren't invulnerable.
Eggshell formation requires two weeks after fertilization to develop the necessary amount of layers. His eggs are soft, have a very thick, opaque, exterior (similar to a juice filled gummy candy) with a standard single embryo, albumen and yolk. Each is a different shade of teal or green. In the event of an unfertilized egg he will lay it as soon as possible so that his body wastes less resources and energy on it (and in times of scarcity he consumes them. That did occasionally include fertilized eggs when the risks of having a baby outweighed the benefits...or that particular Barbatos was just a depraved unborn eater. This was more important when he gambled and laid multiple eggs at one time.)
An egg will be the colors that reflect the child's Sin/Virtue (Gold = Greed/Generosity, Blue = Pride/Humility.) In Demon and Angels they are a single color, but humans will produce a rainbow shell. Barbatos's own genetics often have a strong expression in his offspring such as a tail, bony rather than keratinous horns, and hair/eye colors that are cold shades such as green and blue. Shells with markings and other forms of coloration are another indication of hybrid offspring or offspring of a hybrid resulting in 2nd(or more) generation hybridization. The coloration is typically very intense in Demon offspring as he is an unfathomably powerful and genetically pure/undiluted Demon. His Greed eggs look like real gold and all of his parthenogenic reproductions were clones without genetic alteration or recombination.
Eggnancy: He gets broody and territorial during the half month mark, slight abdominal distention (Demons, even Mammalian Demons, do not show during pregnancy due to the inherent risks that it brings) His broodiness leads to some behaviors that he finds embarrassing such increasing the number of pillows and blankets on the bed, cleaning and rearranging every single thing in the castle, sometimes repeatedly. He is often preoccupied with baby names, so much so that instead of writing notes and ingredients he may start writing names. The worst and most shameful urge is wanting to rub his body on things all over the castle (a holdover of territory/domain marking and directly broadcasts his POWER LEVEL. Entertaining at the castle would be too difficult and frightening for their guests and it makes the Little D shit bricks, and that is just terrible.) Now he only needs to lock his door, but still!! During some cycles he experienced mental health effects such as depression, mania, paranoia, anxiety and post-partum (and occasionally infanticide in depraved Barbatoses). He often has nightmares and sometimes trauma flashbacks, but during the four weeks that he is eggnant he experiences night terrors often (I CRAVE comfort topics)
Additional Behavior with Partner: this is a 60/30/10 split of whether he will be:
60% of the time he will remain sensible and baseline. In this scenario he would work as usual, attend RAD, and trust his partner with their (plural their) egg. He checks in frequently on the egg though so he might portal to his bedroom and then return much like a parent peeking in to make sure their baby is still breathing. Yep. The egg is still glued rock solid to the place he hid it. He does not show their egg to anyone else even though Diavolo wants to see. He shows him pictures though like a magic sonogram. Diavolo can't make heads or tails of it though (literally), but as long as Barbatos is glowing with pride and can point out whether that is an arm or tail then he coos and oohs and ahhs about its development.
30% Hypervigilant, Avoidant and Aggressive. He remains with HIS egg 24/7 until it hatches. Everyone is a potential enemy. In current time this includes his partner and even Diavolo, but he would be able to overcome his hormonal and instincts hijacking to the point that he recognizes they are safe and people he can trust rely on. He still may not choose to rely on them, or eat or sleep. (Generations of Demons after a certain point were NOT peaceful and if it isn't enemies their conflicts were with other Demons and often even more fatal. Nightbringer was not always concerned about all his offspring (cough Barbatos's favorites vs his neglected kid) Demons naturally have a drive to be the dominant species and survival of the fittest was outrageous. The Devildom is only one part of the Demon Realm. Nightbringer ensured that Demons and all future Demons who resided there would be the majority, the ones who are in power and have the greatest wealth and resources. Aristocracy rose due to the Royals etc and soon classism was another effect. He made the Devildom into a Roman Empire that never fell.
And 10% he may be controlling and desperate to keep his partner with him. In this scenario he will have hoarded sustenance for them. In modern times this would mean: No D.D.D's or electronics, the door, window and his portal doors would be heavily barricaded. He wants them and their egg in view at all times, but his partner will not be able to reach the egg due to magic barriers
Egg Laying: at the 4 week mark he is ready to lay the egg. He has never used a medical or birthing facility. He prefers to lay them in still water. In the past he used options like ponds and lakes, in lagoons, etc, but caves that are connected to underwater areas are ideal because he can bypass traveling with an egg and instead create the nursery and live there. (Might be the Reaper's Cave, another is the star crater at the Demon Lord's Castle) In modern times he would use a nice clean bath or a shower. In scenario 1 he would allow his partner to be with him, or even in the bath with him if they wanted. Stages of laying are recognizable in advance. predictable and laying itself is.... very pleasurable. In total it may take 30 to 45 minutes from the time when it truly begins. The outermost layer of the egg can bond to rock or other inorganic surfaces for protection. Once fused only he can separate it.
The egg will then grow from the original size of a small apple or pomegranate (yes, Genesis Lore) to the size of an infant in the span of a month. The soft shell expands with the growth of the baby and at the final stage it hardens into a true shell. When the albumen and yolk are depleted then hatching takes place. Hatching is quick and infant Demons are not born prematurely, or helpless like humans. They are bigger, stronger and much further developed. (Like those creepy precocious babies tiktok is going apeshit about.) Because I know nothing about baby development let's just say they can roll over and prop up on their arms at hatching. They learn to walk and talk at an accelerated rate as well. There is still a baby babbling stage and learning to walk though. In modern times there is much less pressure on babies and children to grow up fast so they are more like human children in that way. Barbatos loves to play, hold and talk with his baby (I had kids in Sims 4, that is totally what you do with a baby) Unlike modern Demon parents he still teaches them about the old ways and some survival skills that he taught his first several hundred kids. But now though it's a fun and games version of how to hide from enemies in order to lure them into a trap, blitz and kill them. It gives them a sense of mastery, confidence and martial discipline. So while bullying does still happen his kids can protect other children from them. Even the meanest Karen with a lying, manipulative and mean brat cowers in terror when Barbatos and his partner's children are involved. There is no such thing as dangers to his family, but he still teaches them stranger danger etc.
Additional Headcanons: Barbatos is an Amphibian Dragon Demon (A Melanistic 5-Lined Skink or 3-Lined Salamander) Leviathan, Satan and Diavolo lay eggs due to being Reptilian (Reticulated Python, Thorny Devil, European Fire Dragon) and Lucifer is Avian (Long Tailed Widowbird) Asmodeus (Emperor Scorpion) and Beelzebub (Marmalade Hoverfly) lay eggs due to having insect basis, but their eggs are different only in appearance. So worry not, no maggot babies!
Anatomy: Demons and Angels have hermaphroditic reproductive anatomy. They do not need to implant their egg(s) in a host (oviposition) for the egg to incubate, but that doesn't mean they don't do that just for the pleasure of it. (This section would require a separate NSFW post because I do have some genital headcanons, but I'm already embarrassed enough...)
Fallen Angels who bear children with a Demon will have Pure Demon offspring because of the transformation from Angel, or hybrid offspring in the case of an interspecies relationship like Humans, Angels, Fairies which are the most genetically compatible races. Less compatible are Ogres, and shapeshifters such as Werewolves. Werewolfism is rarely passed down to Demon children. They can do the deed with, but not reproduce with the living dead. There is no taboo about Vampires, but you'll get a bombastic side eye for being with a Mummy, Skeleton or Zombie because they are...well, DEAD-DEAD.
Well, that concludes my egg nonsense! If you made it this far thank you very much and I hope that it was at least interesting!

Dabi getting deaged into a kid and left in the care of Hawks because the League isn't really "child-proof" with all the knives and the blood and the villains running around. When Dabi gets back to his normal self, he is very upset to find out that the whole of hero society apparently knows that he is Todoroki Touya, missing son of the no. 1 hero, and is now apparently the secret husband of pro hero Hawks.
A very sheepish Hawks explains that he couldn't help getting pictures of Tiny Dabi, especially with the fluffy white hair and brilliant blue eyes. It would be a crime not to take permanent proof. Hawks also argues that it would be a crime not to show it off to other people, because What would the point of taking a picture be?
Hawks posts it on Twitter. In less than an hour, everyone is already theorizing who the baby mama is, why the baby looks so much like hero student Shouto, and why is there a very recognizable villain coat in the background of the picture. @CallMeShoutheorist apparently did a 2 hour breakdown explaining how the child is obviously the son of his missing brother Touya, and that the villain coat is there because Hawks is a very devoted cosplayer. The video ends with Shouto inviting Hawks to family movie night and to remembered to bring his husband and baby with him. Hawks wasn't able to look Dabi in the eye after he finished his explanation, choosing instead to present a ring to the now fuming arsonist.
After all, if the whole world already thinks they're married, then he's gonna make the most out of the situation thank you very much.

it's kind of weird to me that they didn't bother releasing sushi and tempura internationally at all but at the same time i'm kinda glad they didn't cuz like. yo-kai watch was financially failing in the west by the time 3 released. i feel like if they had released sushi and tempura the franchise would've completely tanked before we got sukiyaki which would've sucked. honestly if anything i feel like it's more surprising that we got all three versions of 2 instead of them just releasing psychic specters but tbf i think yo-kai watch was doing well in the west when 2 released. 2 is just inexplicably what killed the franchise despite being a masterpiece-
#puppy rambles#yo-kai watch#yw3#yw2#idk. i have a lot of thoughts on this stuff#still upset i didn't find out 3 released in america until a while after it did :/ could've gotten a physical copy if i'd found out earlier#but alas. i'm just stuck with a boring digital version. i mean the digital versions of yo-kai watch games are better but like. still#i never got maginyan in blasters even though i could've. the code or whatever was on the receipt but my mom bought it for me#from the nintendo website. and i don't think she checked it and i don't think i found out that was where it was until a bit after i got it-#i did get machonyan and jibanyan t/komasan t's codes entered though so i can get them on any playthrough now#unless i put the sd card in another 3ds since apparently it's system-based instead of sd card based??? which is really stupid#but you can probably bypass that with cfw and i do plan on modding my 3ds eventually#it'll just be a process cuz i don't have an sd card slot on my computer and idk if my moms would be willing to help#so i'll probably have to get a separate sd card reader or whatever. which i do think my moms would be okay with i mean#it's my system and they're cool with piracy lfskdjfjkfsdkljfd-#my moms are so cool <3 i just wish i could get them interested in yo-kai watch but they don't seem to care lfskdjfkjsfdjlksfd-#they determined the battle system doesn't sound fun but i might've just described it badly#i mean tbf. it is very annoying sometimes. especially when my healer just will not heal the other yo-kai#''DO YOUR FUCKING JOB TATTLECAST STOP LOAFING'' -me playing 2#that being said if 1's switch port ever releases in america i am totally playing it on the tv#i WILL force my moms to watch me play funni ghost game whether they like it or not /lh#if we do ever get 1's switch port i hope they make it a collection of some kind with 2 and 3 remasters too i would buy that in a heartbeat#i mean obviously i will buy any american-released yo-kai watch stuff in a heartbeat aside from maaaaaybe y-school heroes#(i'm sorry y-school heroes fans i just cannot get into it. from concept alone it sounds like i would not enjoy it)#maybe sangokushi too if we ever get that but i feel like we probably won't#idk if the franchise it's a crossover with is popular enough in america for that#i hope we get more english yo-kai watch content once ghost craft releases. kinda feel like it's testing the waters tbh#i know it's seemingly just a spiritual successor but still#i do hope that it being a spiritual successor doesn't mean yo-kai watch is over. i doubt that it will since like#punipuni still gets semi-frequent updates

In today's episode of 'Sae, do you (...)': the topic of Ningguang and Yelan, and I thought that I should note my opinion more clearly outside of my rules as it's very important information for my portrayal: I do not ship Ningguang and Yelan romantically.
Honestly, while this is of course my own opinion, I don't find that there's anything to really substantiate a romantic interest between the two. For starters, I don't think that Ning, as interesting of a character as she is with a past that might just be similar in its 'rise' to Yelan's (we're left with very little information on the latter's childhood), ticks the right kind of boxes for her, though to be fair: not many do. Yelan craves a specific sort of thrill in her life, I mean she lives it at the roll of a dice because she is, on some level, bored, and craves the unexpected, the unusual, the 'surprise', and Ningguang's life nor personality seem to play into that. Beyond it, Yelan would need a kinship within this very specific 'loneliness' that I talk about too often and I think that Ning is not one who quite meshes into that in the right way.
Second, despite their long-standing history that even predates their mutual involvement with the Qixing, there seems to be a certain professional distance between the two that I'm quite fond of that is shown in brief event cutscenes, and also Yelan's vision story, that I find inherently intriguing. Perhaps this distance plays more into Yelan's character of not investing too heavily, or rather not too easily, into social dynamics than it does Ning's (I'm not one to weigh in on her character), but it seems evident to me that there's also that semblance of professionalism that creates a line that takes away the possibility of growing closer on an emotional level. And whether that's a mutual decision or not is not up to me to judge, but I think it's one that's made rather clearly from Yelan's side. On top of that, Yelan is Yelan and it's my personal belief that shipping her is rather difficult.
Now I'm also inherently of the opinion (unpopular, I know, I apologize) that dynamics aren't always more interesting when written in romantic settings, and I don't think it's a benefit for all of them to veer into a romantic nature. And in my opinion (and most importantly: in my depiction and understanding of Yelan's character), I think that having Ning and Yelan cross the line from professionalism into something inherently more rooted in romanticism, would be a detriment to their dynamic. Because honestly, I think the fact that Ningguang being one of two people (other being Uncle Tian) to know Yelan best, without ever crossing that line, is too good. I would simply, well, just prefer to keep that not only platonic, but professional, but of course not excluding it of Yelan's quips, and the occasional 'confidant' element.
/rambles in tags because I feel like I have more to say that I shouldn't flood the post with.
#[ psa. ] seeing isn't always believing. and if you can't trust your eyes; you certainly can't trust rumors.#[ also; and this is where you'll learn more about my 'single-ship' self-- i love the concept of ningguang and beidou. ]#[ and i wouldn't want to take away from that dynamic /in my own head/. it's not about what others do/see/view. but about my own head. ]#[ if i did ship it-- it'd counter that dynamic and i don't like that (again: in my own brain). ]#[ i'm an odd rper in that sense; but i almost have difficulty straying from this... single verse concept. ]#[ in my head i tie specific characters to other specific characters after a lot of thought and i don't commit to those thoughts easily. ]#[ but then i construct this entire huge narrative in my head that's almost like its own book. ]#[ and so i can't easily 'copy' that multiple times for multiple ships. does that make sense? ]#[ but /because/ i do that-- i heavily scrutinize dynamics across the board and it's where a lot of my enjoyment as a writer comes from. ]#[ these analyses of specific characters and dynamics. why are they the way that they are? ]#[ it's psychology. i love it. it's not just saying 'i love finding out what makes characters tick' but it's actively really going... ]#[ 'yeah okay i could ship these-- but is there basis for it and /why/ and /in what capacity/ and specifically: /would they decide to/? ]#[ sometimes i tell myself that i'm not made for rp'ing because i'm too analytical meshed in with too much emotion. ]#[ because i get too invested. ]#[ but i just-- i don't know. i wanted to kind of explain why pointing stuff like this out is important to me and my portrayal. ]#[ especially for yelan who has such a... god; it's almost an unhealthy headspace. you can't mesh that with just anyone. ]#[ the person has to /really get it/ and understand it almost on this level that isn't logical for most humans. because it's unusual. ]#[ but it's important that it's understood /by another human being/. ]#[ and i also think some people genuinely don't mesh in /that/ way. some can mesh perfectly platonically in my head and then... ]#[ not at all romantically. but when /my head/ has decided that this is how it is-- i respect when people disagree; i do. ]#[ i will never say that my opinions are the be all end all for other yelans or even yelan's character in specific. ]#[ as much as i like to think i analyze-- /i could be wrong/. ]#[ but all in all; i do respect if people disagree. but there's just certain opinions i have for my own portrayal that i need to note. ]#[ but also-- a little explanation as to why i'm single-ship more often than not. i wish i could budge how my brain works. but alas. ]#[ /sips coffee past midnight. ]#[ it's been a day. it really has been a day; i need to make my own serotonin tomorrow. i miss writing. ]

just got to the stupid zaharas chapter and went through dimi and claude's conversation and my god
they really did not use a single quarter of a brain cell when putting that conversation into ag
"your issue is with the church, not with faerghus?" eh wot hootie tootie claude never had a problem with faerghus and hasn't been acting like it. makes it sound like they've been fighting each other (i.e. this is meant to fit gw but and they just copy/pasted the whole conversation bc it just makes no sense).
"we have nothing to gain by fighting you." yeah, you... haven't been and never said you were planning to.
"we could've been friends." and whhhhyyyy can't you? there is an entire zero bad blood between y'all and lorenz has already pretty much said this whole second half of the war thing has been proof of the friendship between the kingdom and alliance soooo...?
"had i joined with you" uh um but you literally did this has been ongoing for half the war now
additional funnies are claude just being so butthurt that dimitri is like this might endanger your life and claude is like aw shucks my life has been endangered since i was born i'm basically an endangered species!
also, dimitri saying it brings guilt to do the things claude would do bc he's been there. lel. claude had no guilt in gw tho (for killing rhea and all that shit).
but fr tho, it just seems like gw claude and dimi got warped into zaharas and the ag ones are just passed out in the normal world having the same yeehaw ass fever dream LIKE
this entire conversation legitimately makes worse than zero sense. i can only imagine how confused people were who played ag first and got this conversation bc it like, legitimately has no place in this route. this is like a fever dream on steroids that were laced with drugs.
i was lucky i was playing ag while simultaneously watching the other routes on youtube or i would have also been absolutely bonkers confused.
#DCB Three Hopes Run#FR THO LIKE. THAT ENTIRE CONV IS LIKE. WHAT JUST HAPPENED???#WHERE DID THIS ALL EVEN COME FROM??? MATTHIAS IS ALIVE YOU KNOW#CLAUDE GOT TO SEE FAERGHUS' LEGENDARY HOSPITALITY (he fucked the king)#at this point like. im just laughing bc. did they even NOTICE the context they copy/pasted into this route???#even if ag claude post war still wanted to fight rhea and yadda yadda hoo haa#half the conv still makes absolutely no sense at all and doesn't even follow the route#ag is aaaaallllmmmmoooost perfect but then like. the oversights are so bad lmfao#i still look at this and am like. how. no like literally HOW. how did they look at this and not be like#hmmm this makes... so much of no sense to this route that we should prob make a new conv for it#WAIT I GET IT NOW THIS IS WHY RODRIGUE DIES#HE SAW THE FUTURE AND WAS LIKE OHHHH HELL NAH#RODRIGUE SAW THE ZAHARAS CHAPTER AND IT KILLED HIM. BUT! IT WAS A DOUBLE KILL! RODRIGUE DEFEATED THE ZAHARAS CHAPTER!#HE SACRIFICED HIMSELF SO AG WOULDN'T HAVE THE BIGGEST MOMENT OF WTF IN FODLAN GAME HISTORY EVEN INCLUDING HEROES#RODRIGUE SAVED US ALL. HE COULDN'T BEAR TO LET US WITNESS IT#THAT'S WHY IF HE SURVIVES WE GET THE CHAPTER!!! BC HE DIDN'T REALIZE IT WOULD HAPPEN SO HE DIDN'T KILL IT!#AND SINCE HE DIDN'T KILL IT IT DIDN'T KILL HIM BACK. IT'S LIKE THE BARRIER THINGY IN RD'S FINAL CHAPTER#THAT PROTECTS ASHERA. IT DOES HALF THE DAMAGE TO YOU THAT YOU DO TO IT#SO IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL IT CAN ACTUALLY KILL YOU. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED TO RODRIGUE#BUT THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT HE KNEW HE'D DIE BUT HE HAD TO DO IT TO EM#HE HAD TO DO IT TO SPARE EVERYONE THE WONKIEST FEVER DREAM KNOWN TO MAN AND DRAGONKIND

Confession that will get me cancelled: I will sometimes reference super mario logan videos cuz I used to watch some. and they were honestly really funny if you ignored the problematic bits.
#I AM SO SORRY EVERYONE. but some of those jokes have stuck with me for years.#UNIRONICALLY THE EPISODES HAD A REALLY GOOD FORMULA. LIKE WTF.#I’m not getting over the episode where they were gonna fail the test but Cody let them copy his test#and then the teacher said ‘you did really great Cody!’ he said ‘I got an A?’ the teacher said ‘yeah on all 3 of them!’#‘YOU IDIOTS COPIED MY N A M E TOO?????’ bro that was hilarious 😭😭😭#also the episode where Junior believed the Sun was a planet. bro. the plot twist that they sent him to the sun not because they believed him#but because they thought a kid stupid enough to believe you could land on the sun deserved to be sent to it 😭😭😭 WTFF#there are some episodes I remembered really liking but I don’t remember why#and as much as I’d like to rewatch them I… don’t think I can……..#I think if I went to rewatch old SML videos I’d be shot#also the journey to find the specific episodes would probably be a disaster#anyways that is my confession. I do not support SML or the problematic things in the episodes I liked.#it was just genuinely really funny and clever sometimes. unfortunately. I only watched it cuz my siblings did. side note all the special ed#kids in highschool loved it and I was confused cuz I was also a special ed kid who had seen it like. how did this ableist bs gain such an#autistic following. I’m telling you it’s because the episode formulas were actually really good. this sucks. I wish it wasn’t so problematic
