hii could you do a headcannon where tom and the reader are teen parents and how they manage with tom being in the band + tour or something like that?
Tom K. Teen Parent HC'S
Tumblr media
It would be actually pretty complicated
Imma say you guys have a daughter because Tom as a girl dad seems cute
You guys do your best to manage with everything in your life and your daughter
Your daughter tags along on tours the best you guys can do
You guys have either a staff member who you trust or a caretaker tag along for when you guys are on stage just to watch her
Tom is actually a pretty good dad
Considering how young you guys are
Is constantly taking your daughter out for anything
Held her up all proud on stage when she was like one or two
Presented her like mf simba in the first part of the movie
It was a pretty big deal for him because you guys didn't show her public for a while when she was a baby
Because you guys wanted to keep your kid private at least to protect her since you guys knew what it was like to have people meddling with you at a young age
You guys hide that you were pregnant from fans for a while, which actually worked because the band went on a short break for relaxation when your stomach started getting bigger
Was a big deal with everyone when you guys were seen with a baby walking down the street and were caught by paparazzi
Tom brings your daughter along for meet and greet with fans
Your daughter is pretty popular in the entire fanbase you guys have
She is getting kisses on the cheek from fans, little gifts for her when Tom and you are signing shit
Your kid loves growing up in the attention
But you guys set clear boundaries with paparazzi
You have too because your daughter doesn't like them
As she grows up paparazzi obviously wants to know more about her
One time they flooded you guys and made your daughter cry, effectively pissing you and Tom off because they just kept asking questions after question
They were flashing their cameras so much your daughter got freaked out and literally hid into her fathers neck
It ended up on the tabloids with you yelling at paparazzi and Tom leading you and your kid to your car
Your daughter has the time of her life with you guys
Her parents are legit famous and she's growing up in it
You guys take your kid everywhere
Your daughter has the best uncle's in the world
Bill is dressing her up just like him and doing her hair all he time
Is always taking her out when he has time and loves taking her to the park and pushing her on swings
Loves messing with her to hear her giggle and will play random games with her for hours
Georg is the cool uncle who will let her do anything she wants
Will give her any candy she possibly wants just to make her hyper for you guys
Buys her anything she could ever want and always has her attached to his back
Is the definition of
"Why are you yelling though?"
"Yelling?"
"Yelling!"
Is the overprotective uncle and will never let anything happen to her
Gustav is the caring and the uncle who spoils her the most
Is probably the favorite uncle
Let's her mess around, stay up past her bedtime, eat any candy she wants, and watch anything she wants
Shows her videos of you guys playing on stage
It's so cute when she starts clapping and smiling while yelling
"That's mama! There's daddy!"
You're daughter is so lucky man
She is the entire world of the band and nobody would date replace her or show her anything different
Tom will not settle for anything but the best for his kid
Constantly has her in interviews and let's her answer questions
Will try not to say what he usually does in interviews when your kid is in earshot but it slips our sometimes becaue he can't help it
Bill has to legit jump across the couch to cover your daughters ears
Your daughter is so sassy because she picked it up from you so when she sasses him he just puts his hands on his hips and looks at you with a look
She has her dad and uncles wrapped around her finger
If she doesn't want to do anything or go to school, school is canceled and you guys are going to a park or a carnival
Gustav, Georg, Bill and Tom let your daughter get away with legit murder
She can do no wrong in their eyes
Your daughter always somehow shimmies her way between you and Tom when it's time to sleep though
Pushes her dad away from you when he tries to kiss you
"My mama! Mine!"
While hugging you as Tom is offended, after everything he does for her
You're daughter is taught standards are high from her uncles and parents and will never settle for anything less

BEST YGO GIRL: SEMI FINALS
Match 2
Tumblr media
please use this as an opportunity to say why you like a character, not why you don't.
Propaganda under the cut!
Isis Ishtar
gorgeous, very caring sister, strong duelist, and the only woman to ever make Seto Kaiba squirm
anyways. not only as mentioned above is she the first woman to make kaiba squirm, but she was by all means going to beat him if not for the millennium rod's millennium interference. yami marik admits that she's a strong duelist with a strategy that's been working for literal years-- and given that she's not like, a professional duelist, thats pretty impressive
she also recently got some really cool meta bumps and let me point out that an "ishizu deck" now includes obelisk the tormentor-- which we knew she had prior to giving it to kaiba, but i think it only solidifies my opinion that she very much could wield an Egyptian God Card, an exclusive little club for top tier duelists
as a character she presents herself with an amazing amount of poise and grace, shes compassionate and kind and stays with mai and serenity even though she only just met them. shes struggling through living the past 5 years of her life drowning in guilt for her family's tragedy just because she wanted to make her little brother happy and shadi is a fucking liar. shes foretold her own death and marches towards it grimly but with so much love in her heart. and even then shes 20 years old and holds an important position in the egyptian government that typically requires a doctorate degree AND has been dealing with mariks off-and-on bullshit entirely by her lonesome. she also likes to flex her fortunetelling a little which is awesome i think she should do that more that scene where she tells the guy exactly how the stele is being transported was so everything
speaking of shes got such an attitude. "is it your destiny to waste my time?" iconic. never seen before will never be seen again. watch the duel between her va and joeys its so fucking funny
shes excult. shes doesnt flinch in the face of god nor death. seto kaiba and yami marik respect her. shes so sad and so sweet and battle city couldnt have happened without her.
also her parallels with kaiba are what motivate kaiba to give yugi the card he needed to beat marik.
kaiba, in duelist kingdom, was ready to jump off a ledge if yugi didnt let him through to face pegasus while trying to save mokuba out of sheer desperation to save his little brother. he KNOWS what that dedication feels like and the iron kind of will you need to have to make that kind of gamble. isis is being so fucking legit with what shes saying and he respects that and her judgement enough to change his mind and not only watch the duel, but give yugi a card that eventually helps him win, even if he has no real confidence in the odds. but theres a CHANCE, which is the same thing he taught her when he beat her in a duel. the layers its her faith that moves him to act. which is so crazy
anyway vote isis shes my best friend forever and a real rep for all the 20 year olds who honest to god did not sign up for this bullshit
Aki Izayoi
An abuse victim who isn't the perfect passive figure but gets to work through her complicated feelings about power, agency, and family. Even with Yusei's help, she is the star of the show when she learns to control her powers and reconciles with her father, it is so fun that a ygo heroine gets to take such an antagonistic role bu not be shamed for her anger
please vote for my main girl, aki izayoi. aki was led to believe she was a monster from a young age by her father, who treated her powers like it made her unworthy of love. as a result, divine was able to swoop in and take advantage of aki's low self esteem. for years, aki believed herself unworthy of love and was molded into a living weapon at the hands of authority figures in her life. she was taken advantage of, and thus when she finally comes face to face with yusei, she refuses to believe he could provide her with unconditional friendship. who would want to be around a monster, after all?
aki also nearly beats yusei TWICE in a duel, bringing it down to a single turn difference. she comes toe to toe with him, and it truly is the result of who dueled better. she remains a fierce duelist, btw. the second season, aki gets her duel runner license, and immediately nearly beats the ass of a tournament winning turbo duelist - to the point where once again, a single card is the deciding factor. that's right: she nearly won. if not for a single trap card, aki izayoi would've won.
a fierce duelist who was shaped into a loving, caring woman despite years of being beaten down by the world: aki izayoi. vote for her now on your phones.

Win For Her
Tumblr media
Dominik had always been passionate about wrestling. Growing up, he had watched his father, the legendary Rey Mysterio, dazzle the WWE Universe with his acrobatics and charisma. Now, as a rising star in the company, Dominik found himself on a similar path, but with an unexpected twist - he had fallen in love with YN YLN, Triple H's niece, who had become one of the biggest supporters he’s ever had. 
YN had wrestling in her blood, just like Dominik. She had grown up around the business, listening to her uncle's stories, and watching the greats like The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and of course, her favorite, Triple H, make their mark. When she and Dominik started dating, it was as if fate had brought them together. Their shared passion for the squared circle was the glue that bound their hearts, among other things. 
Every week, YNN would be in the audience, watching Dominik's matches with bated breath. She could see the dedication and hard work he put into each performance, and she was proud of how much he had grown as a wrestler. Dom, in turn, knew she was watching and wanted to make her proud with every move he made in the ring. In his head, he was only performing for her. 
One evening, after a successful match on RAW, Dominik found himself backstage, catching his breath and wiping the sweat from his brow. Finn Balor approached him with a congratulatory pat on the back. "Great job out there, man. You're really making a name for yourself." 
The younger man smiled, grateful for the support of his peers. But as he looked over Finn's shoulder, he saw YN standing there with her uncle. She was beaming with pride, and her eyes were fixed on him as she carried on the conversation with Hunter. 
Feeling a surge of motivation, Dom turned his attention back to Finn and said, "Thanks, dude. I appreciate it." He gestured toward YN with his head before continuing, "I can't let her down." 
The Irishman followed Dominik's gaze and nodded knowingly. "I get it, man. She's your biggest fan, and she believes in you. Keep doing what you're doing, and you'll make her proud every time you step into that ring. I don’t think she could ever not be proud of you." 
Dominik's heart swelled with determination. He knew that no matter how tough the competition got or how challenging the road ahead was, he had YN's unwavering support. With a renewed sense of purpose, he headed over to where YN and Triple H were standing. When he finally got up to the duo, they stopped talking.  
“Oh, am I not worthy of being a part of the conversation?” he questioned playfully as he wrapped his arms around her waist. 
YNN shook her head. “No. Not at all. Hearing someone brag about you gives you too much of an ego.” 
Hunter laughed at his niece’s comment. “Your aunt used to say the same thing about me.” 
“Because it was true,” she said in a humorous voice. “I don’t remember a whole lot from back then, since I was a legit child, but I do remember that. Walking around like you own the place because one person said, ‘Triple H is the best there ever was’ or ‘Helmsley sure knows what he’s doing’. That was all it took.” 
“You would know the feeling if you would get in the ring and spare with someone.” her uncle noted. 
The YEC-eyed girl shook her head once more. “Nah, I'm good with just watching.” 
Dom placed his head on her shoulder and asked, “Why not?” 
“I hurt myself enough on my own. I don’t need a colleague to do it for me. Hard pass.” The three of them shared a good laugh at her statement. It was hard for either Dominik or Triple H to argue that point.  
Even if YN didn’t wrestle, she was a great support system for the two of them. Dom was grateful to have her by his side and knowing that she always had his back no matter what move he made gave him the strength to keep going.

General Yandere! Silver Headcanons (TWST)
Tumblr media
OCTO NOTE: SILVER DIDN'T COME HOME SO HERE'S HOW I'M COPING 😭😭
Late headcanons for the birthday boy!
Warnings: NOT PROOF-READ, the grammar here is a warning itself, Yandere behaviour, soft yandere, obsession, OOC madness, unhealthy behaviours, Lilia is an enabler, this is like a week late lol
**WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR TWISTED WONDERLAND
REMINDER: Yandere behaviour of any kind is unhealthy behaviour. It should not be something to seek out in real life. If you are experiencing any sort of inappropriate behaviour, please contact help/seek out help.
**The reader will ALWAYS be Gender-Neutral! 
———————————-••———————————
- Soft
- So soft
- Like the softest
- And the goodest of boys
- Like why is he even going to NRC??
- Probably only attends NRC because of Malleus and Lilia like he legit does not fit in lmaoo
- Out of all of the TWST guys, he’s probably the most tamed and humane yandere out of all of them (which makes sense tbh).
- You guys could’ve met in many ways due to what the MC has to go through (thanks to a certain deadbeat crow).
- Silvers reaction to you at first could end up two ways:
One: After asking you if you’ve seen Malleus anywhere, he just moves on with his duties. This would be a slow-type of process. He would also lean towards the oblivious side when it comes to his feelings for you.
Two: it’s love at first sight. 
- Going off the 2nd reason mentioned, since Silver is mostly likely the descendant/based on Aurora and Prince Phillip, he could technically fit into the ‘Disney-Princess stereotype’: where the princess would fall in love with a person who is kind to them. 
- Regardless of either scenario mentioned, Silver is not the type to act on his feelings right away. He’s self-aware about how he feels about you, but wouldn’t be the type of person to go up to you and say “It’s meant to be!” Or “You’re my prince/ss! And we’re going to live happily ever after! UwU *sunshine and rainbows* *singing birds*”
- Silver knows that he likes you so he would seek out your company in order to get to know you better. Whether it be for lunch, studying, or just talking to you, he will make sure to spend time with you when he can. 
- He’s just going to end up sleeping on your shoulder anyways lol.
- Sliver: *Literally almost collapsing on the ground while hanging out together* 😌😪😴😴
- You: *Wanting to wake him up but not having the heart to after seeing how peaceful he looks* 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
- Silver is also the type to use old-fashioned ways to win you over. 
- Advice from his ever so-loving and caring father Lilia of course—
- Flowers sent by his little bird friends with a note containing romantic poems, tried greeting you with a little kiss on your hand, holding the door for you even if you you’re not even near the door yet (awkward loving eye contact while you’re speed walking to the door)
- You get the idea
- Speaking of Lilia, I 100% believe that he would enable Silver to act on his yandere tendencies (whether it’s on purpose or not).
- I mean cmon, if you were in Lilia’s shoes wouldn’t you want your own child to be happy with the one they love the most?
- Even if it’s illegal but who’s asking?
- He’s probably just doing this for the wedding that he totally did not plan in advance whaa—??
- Also, Silver probably doesn’t develop any yandere tendencies until the middle of y’all’s relationship tbh.
- If he does develop yandere tendencies before or early in the process, it’s most likely due to Lilia’s influence.
- Like I mentioned before, Silver is most likely the best— if not the BEST— yandere to end up with based on his overall personality.
- I know that yandere tendencies can lead characters to act ooc but for Silver, the stereotypical yandere is too extreme for his type of person. 
- DOES NOT EXCUSE THE BEHAVIOURS OR ACTS.
- Again, very soft and gentle 
- Would treat you with soft caresses and kisses, especially when cuddling.
- Would never use brutal force or inflict any sort of harm on you unless it’s by accident.
- Silver can’t and won’t harm you as it would put your life in jeopardy (doesn’t matter what it is).
- Daily naps always
- If you’re sleeping, he’s sleeping
- If he’s sleeping, you’re sleeping (or just lying there)
- Silver just can’t help but sleep in your presence. It’s not that you’re boring no way, you just give off this peaceful aura that enormously makes him sleepy.
- Basically when you’re around he has the best naps in the world.
- He rather sleeps in your dorm than his own just because of you. He’s probably seen the evolution of Ramshackle depending on when he acted on his feelings.
- Lilia just hanging upside down on a nearby branch, watching y’all from the distance and cooing how cute you guys are: 🥰🥰🙃🙃🥰🥰
- If there’s ever a joint class between the 1st and 2nd years, the teachers always make sure that you two are apart.
- Much to Lilia’s dismay if he hears about this.
- Because when you’re around, Silver ain’t getting nothing done. Not when your soft shoulder is the best pillow he has ever laid his head on. 
- Besides your lap ofc—
- Also, a good listener!
- If you have a problem or you need to rant to someone, Silver is your guy.
- He doesn’t mind at all (he really likes your voice, happy or pissed off).
- Just don’t tell him specific details or else something might happen (and it won’t be pretty).
- He adores quality time as well as physical contact with you. Holding hands, sleeping next to each other, etc. 
- He loves it when you play with his hair. He would intentionally lay his head down on your lap so you have easier access to his hair.
- Remember when Vil braided Silver's bangs back for the Fairy Gala Remix event?
- If you can do that, Silver will always go to you to do his hair. 
- He would definitely let you experiment with his hair as well. 
- Ponytails, pigtails, a little bun, he’ll love it all if it’s done by you.
- He would even let you dye his hair as well if you wanted.
- Hell, if you mentioned that you find long hair attractive, Rapunzel better watch out, she’s now competing with a sleepy-simp.
- If we’re going to dive into spoiler territory, it’s most likely won’t change the story lol.
- For Book 7, even if Malleus gives Silver his happily ever after with you, he still wouldn’t be happy.
- Silver might be ecstatic that you reciprocated his feelings, but he would rather have this in the real world instead.
- Not in a toxic dream world that Malleus made up due to overblot.
- Hell, I don’t even believe that dream would come true because Yuu is in another place entirely due to Malleus influence.
- Which motivates Silver to fix this problem even more.
- So happy to find you alright.
- Overall, Silver is just a huge simp for you. 
- Not really violent unless necessary.
- Very loving and caring
- Will do everything in his power to make you happy.
- Best boi no debates
- TLDR: Silver’s a bottom lol
———————————-••———————————
OCTO NOTES: Okay I know this wasn’t really yandere but I feel that it would be too OOC for Silver. 
Anyways! Thanks for reading <33 This is the first time that I wrote for Silver. 
Also THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE 14 LIKES ON MY CLOUD STRIFE HEADCANONS!!❤️❤️ I LEGIT SCREAMED WHEN I SAW 1 LIKE LOL
I’ll work on part 2 of his headcanons soon don’t worry! Again thank you all so much!!
Heres the Cloud Strife headcanons if you're curious: Yandere! Cloud Strife HC's (Platonic)

i am not in love with you! | lo'ak sully x f!reader
Sypnosis; You are Lo'ak's best friend. He stares at you when you're not looking and he always makes you're okay, but he's not in love with you! ( he totally is )
Contents; fluff, short fic, lo'ak is stupid, neytiri being sassy, a bit of angst (readers past), reader can be from whatever clan,
Dictionary; skxawng- idiot, itan - son, tawtute - human
A/N; loak is legit the prettiest boy ever
Tumblr media
Neytiri knows her son likes you. She sees his lingering stares whenever you come over for a meal, she sees the way he keeps whatever trinkets you find for him, she sees his careful hand on the small of your back when leading you through the village. She wonders why her skxawng son hasn't asked to court you yet, because watching him lose braincells over you is starting to get to her.
So, Neytiri decided to approach him during their rare little alone time. Maybe approach wasn't the word- confront might be closer. They both sat in the family marui since Lo'ak had been punished to help cooking dinner everyday for a week after his fight with Ao'nung. His hands worked around vegetables form around the village when his mother spoke.
"So, ma itan. How is your y/n?" She asked, cutting up fish from her seat in their home. Lo'ak half choked at the sound of 'your' before your name and hushed out a reply. "Oh, uh. She's cool. Alright. She's alright." He coughed and Neytiri chuckled. Puppy love, just like his father. "She is well?"
"Yeah, she's pretty- pretty good! Pretty good." He fumbled again, this time Neytiri let out a full on laugh. "Oh, Lo'ak. You should tell her how you feel." She proposed, and his cheeks darkened at deeper hue. "M'a... I'm- Its not like that." Lo'ak's ears flattened against his loose hair and his brows furrowed.
Yeah- Skxawng wasn't close enough. Neytiri knows how her son lost his mind over you, sure. Neytiri also knows that whenever Lo'ak stared, you'd state just a second longer. She sees how much time you spend handpicking every shell you give to him, she sees how your tail flails around whenever Lo'ak came near. How the boy in question hadn't noticed, however, was a total mystery to her.
"My son is an idiot. Skxawng. She likes you, Lo'ak." Neytiri paused, her intricate work slowing. "And by the way you stare at her whenever she is around, I would guess you do too." She stared at her son for nothing short of a few seconds, but Lo'ak felt his body heat at her intense look. "M'a... Fine. I'll go talk go her. Stop looking at me like that." Neytiri grinned again and Lo'ak's cheeks burned brighter.
By the time Lo'ak had found you, it was sundown. The beach was covered in an orange dew and the sea was calmer. You were sat along a fallen log, apparently weaving a top out of leaves and shells. The boy approached you at a slightly alarming pace and the strange expression on his face made you believe he was angry. "Lo'ak! Is something wrong? Are you okay?" Jumping off the log and rushing over to where he stood, grasping both his forearms into your smaller hands.
"Are you hurt?" Your voice was rushed and panicked and Lo'ak was quick to reassure you. "What? No- y/n, I'm fine. Really, see? I'm okay." Your tense body relaxed and your shoulders dropped. He assumed that ever since your parents had been murdered by tawtute, your instinct to protect had heightened.
However the shaky hands that held his forearms didn't relent and Lo'ak slid them into his. "I'm fine. I actually wanted to tell you something." His yellow eyes bore into yours and your grip finally loosened. "Oh- yes. Sure." You smiled, any sign of stress that had been previously present disappearing. Lo'ak always made you feel safe.
"I really, really like you. I know you probably don't like ne back and that's fine- well you know, I'd like you to like me back but if you don't that's also fine-" The soft press of your lips against his made Lo'ak choke. Your eyes were shut, long lashes fluttering onto your cheeks. The soft glow of your tanhi reminded him of the stars and his eyes closed too.
When you pulled away Lo'ak wished he could've paused time to live this moment forever. "Lo'ak... I like you too, skxawng."
Yeah... maybe Neytiri was right.

WE NEED HIGH SCHOOL SWEETHEARTS WITH ETHAN LANDRY. LIKE OKAY, HEAR ME OUT
she’s his whole world and he’d do legit anything for her, and he’s scared of the idea of losing her after graduation and they fall slightly out of touch and once richie dies and she’s gone, he falls into his canon counterpart until she is reintroduced through him by anika who has became her roommate and best friend and ethan can’t believe she’s actually there and just some fluffy smut + maybe angst bc he knows he can’t save her from his sister or father but that part is completely up to you!!
┎┈┈┈┈┈┈┈𓆩♡𓆪┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┒
— long lost sweetheart
┖┈┈┈┈┈┈┈𓆩♡𓆪┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┚
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
**edited timeline
Tumblr media
𓆩[main masterlist]𓆪 𓆩[request/ask me something!]𓆪
Tumblr media
— High School Sweetheart! Ethan Landry who was head over heels for you ever since you both were children, finally having enough courage to ask you out when the two of you were freshmen. You were both each other's first everything, and the night before he left town after Richie's murder, you both had sex for the first time.
— High School Sweetheart! Reader who went to Blackmore after a gap-year, deciding to end it with Ethan when the two of you just couldn't keep seeing each other. It was mutual and ended on good terms, but for fucks sake, who could forget their first love?
Tumblr media
— High School Sweetheart! Ethan Landry who goes to Blackmore in hopes of seeing you again, but doesn't show it off too much because you might not feel the same way.
— High School Sweetheart! Reader who literally almost sobbed when you saw him again, of course introduced by your roommate Anika, running into his arms and Ethan kissing you shamelessly - leading to heavy confusion to the rest of the group.
— High School Sweetheart! Reader who's confused on why Ethan changed his name, about to ask why and tell everyone how long you had known each other before Ethan pulled you away and explained why.
"Just say I'm your long-distance boyfriend, okay? I... I want to escape that past and that name, and so does my sister. Just... don't say anything, please?"
— High School Sweetheart! Reader who complies out of love and trust, not knowing the fact that he was going to continue his brother's mission.
— High School Sweetheart! Ethan Landry who rented a hotel room to finally spend a night with you after fucking his fist every night away from you, finally praising your body like the night before he left. He would touch you like you were glass before he finally gets the view of your wet cunt, shamelessly pushing his fingers into you and desperately eating you out like a starved man.

Scriddler fic recommendations!!!
Stay (2017) by iammemyself
Rating: General
49,873 words, 11/11 chapters (discontinued)
Arkhamverse
After Arkham Knight, Jonathan and Edward move to Canada together, where the full weight of Edward's grief crashes down on the both of them.
This fic is fucking miserable in the best way possible. It feels so grey and depressing like almost the entire time even with its ups and downs. Things get better, but it's fucking hard. Legit among my favorite fics. Also Jon's so obscenely old here I love it lmfao. (There's also a Stay (2016) I haven't actually looked at, might be a prequel or smthn idk)
I'm With You by nonbinaryspock
Rating: Mature
50,684 words, 35/35 chapters
Jonathan and Edward rekindle their somewhat messy relationship from their college years. Things are still a bit messy but they've at least got some hindsight.
Hella angsty, they're both so horribly dysfunctional <3 (specifically Jonathan will just say/think the absolute wildest shit and then just go on like that's normal). I really just love how visceral their emotions can be.
Runs In The Family by ChaoticMimzy
Rating: Mature
8,703 words, 5/5 chapters
Edward's father dies and he goes to his funeral (solely to be there for his sister, mind you) where he grapples with past trauma and catholic guilt.
Very very rogues podcast coded (highest compliment). It's mostly Edward-centric and doesn't focus on the scriddler too much but it's still worth a read. Edward's rage towards his childhood circumstances is so potent and agonizing I love it so much. He should get to kill god a little bit imo
(More below)
Let me play you a song on my violin by batmanforeverlol
Rating: Teen
7,206 words, 1/1 chapters
Ghost AU. Edward is a retired criminal turned private investigator who finds himself running through a cemetery, where he meets a man playing a violin.
Ngl I cried super hard reading this but it's also one of my absolute favorites. Why would you write this? Why would you hurt me in this way? (It's really sweet but also really fucking sad, you should read it. Share my pain)
Terminal by iammemyself, promethea (Aerosol)
Rating: General
7,073 words, 1/1 chapters
Edward gets brain cancer again, this time the Lazarus pits aren't gonna help him.
As you could imagine, this fic is just sad from start to finish. I cried so fucking much reading it its not even funny.
He Just Likes The Rush by Human_Resourccs
Rating: General
16,072 words, 9/9 chapters
Jonathan's thrill-seeking brings him some interesting company. (Or, as I know it: the fic where a fucking spider lives in Jonathan's hair for months and Edward still lets him touch him. If that's not love I don't know what is)
Sapiophile by XavIniesta685
Rating: Mature
17,529 words, 3/3 chapters
The Moon Is Not Made Of Cheese by Stry_Shttu
Jonathan has given up in every sense and is about to leave Gotham until a series of events change his mind. A lot of "falling in love within a day" fics can feel kinda forced but this one flows really naturally.
Rating: Teen
7,820 words, 1/1 chapters
Arkhamverse
Edward is lonely, Jonathan goes to see him while also being Jason Todd's really lame dad. A good mix of sweet and silly.
The Boy With The Thorn In His Side by 30PacketsofKetchup
Rating: Teen
21,542 words, 8/? chapters (this fic hasn't been updated in like 5 years so be ready for that specific brand of agony)
Teenager AU. Jonathan meets the mildly annoying new boy in town and they bond.
I looove this fic so much I'm absolutely heartbroken that it wasn't ever finished. Idk the vibes are nice and I love how flustered young Jon gets when he's got a crush.
South of Hell by nonbinaryspock
Rating: Teen
14,194 words, 35/35 chapters
Teenager AU. No one in their awful little town likes Edward or Jonathan, but they've at least got eachother. Very southern gothic.
Exit Wounds by nonbinaryspock
Rating: Teen
18,066 words, 38/38 chapters
Demon/supernatural AU. Edward is a private investor and his demon ex-boyfriend suddenly shows up after 5 years in need of a place to stay. Edward is thoroughly unimpressed.
I'm in love with this AU big time, it's got some pretty neat world building. I also love how distinctive the characterizations here are. BAH I'm not great at describing but it's very angsty and good.
Frighteningly Unprofessional by bookynerdgoblin
Rating: Mature
28,412 words, 11/11 chapters
One of Jonathan's students knows about his unethical experiments, however instead of reporting him, he offers to help in exchange for his partnership. Things spiral from there. Edward is purposefully being super obvious and Jonathan talks to his cat like a person.
Words by scarecrowv
Rating: General

Edward's daughter keeps calling Jon "mama" and he has no idea how to handle it, aka psychology professor Dr Jonathan Crane talks to a 2 year old like an adult.

Some series to look at as well!
Memoryverse by Enigmatic_Robin
Rating: General
15,393 words, 11 works
A bit more of a psychological horror/thriller than a romance. Jonathan is manipulating Edward into complete dependency. It seems easy while Edward is in love with him, but he'd better watch out for when that veil slips.
Scriddler Family AU by Enigmatic_Robin

Arkhamverse by iammemyself

In which Edward and Jonathan's relationship is a bit complicated, but Edward is also a robot dad!!
(Everything from here is nsfw centric)

Kiss The Go-Goat by korereapers
Rating: Explicit
5,203 words, 1/1 chapters

I hate the "Finish the story" gimmick/angle. The idea that the worst thing Vince McMahon ever did in wrestling (who is currently being exposed as this evil man guilty of sex crimes and blackmail and covering a legit murder) was not push Dusty Rhodes longer as WWF champion (when he still made him champion) and that it will all be forgiven and WWE will be this clean magical place if Dusty's son gets to be champ too. Fuck off. Dusty wasn't robbed. When he came back in the late 80s, he was nowhere near the level of Hulk, Savage or Warrior. He was perfect as a midcarder like Cody was and will be again eventually.
Cody does his best to be like the NWA version of his dad with nice suits and talkative promos and very sweaty, self-punishing matches. Cool. But he's not the character or worker or interesting person that Dusty or even Goldust were. Cody milks his family to get ahead. WWE's cracker ass fanbase think The Rock is somehow worse when Rock exceeded his father in every way. And Rock proved himself EARLY in his 20s, being the youngest champ at that point. And he didn't leave to start a company that was better without him. Rock went to Hollywood and conquered it, making pro wrestling mainstream and respected.
What is Cody's appeal? Besides being the white trash version of The Rock like 90% of WWE stars since The Rock: LA Knight, The Miz, John Cena, Batista, early Randy Orton before he became a Stone Cold ripoff. Cody is definitely the weakest of these guys.
You know why The Bloodline and Sami Zayn angle was great? It wasn't a shit rehash of the Attitude Era. Cody Rhodes, Kofimania, Daniel Bryan, CM Punk and every stupid "People's Champ" angle has been a lazy rehash of Mick Foley's road to beat The Rock and become "the most unlikely champion ever". Shit, that's what the Sami angle ALMOST was and should've been until Cody ruined it.
WWE fans want the same shit over and over forever. They make the show boring and unwatchable to people who watched 25 years ago at wrestling's peak.
That is why I don't give a shit about Cody Rhodes. Why I would rather watch The Rock vs Roman Reigns. Because Rock vs Roman is a story thats never been told. With 30 years in the making. Cody? No one cared about him 3 years ago.

Could you do a Tokyo Revengers Mikey, Chifuyu, or Baji reaction to when they go over to their S/O house to meet their grandfather (readers parents died in a car crash when they were a baby) they find out the reader is the heir of a Yakuza clan. They are so sweet and nice no one ever knew.
so… i figured i would do it all because these are legit the best choices, i couldn’t resist.
Tumblr media
-matsuno chifuyu-
“Y’all were the ultimate couple; both shy and cute, total outcasts normally. No one ever would ever look either of you and expect y’all to be in a gang.
“Is your grandfather okay with me?” he asks, worrisome that something bad would arise.
“ ‘fuyu, you’re an angel, anyone would like you.” you coo as he blushes and steps behind you, not wanting to be the first sight for your grandpa.
“Y/n!” your grandpa exclaims as he hugs you, excited to see you and finally have some company.
“Hi grandpa!” you laugh as he lets you go and moves onto chifuyu.
“He looks cute. Good choice. Is he good even in bed?” your grandpa questions as he looks chifuyu up and down.
“Grandpa! We haven’t done that yet!” you exclaim as you turned beet red next to the already red boy.
“Sorry sorry, just curious. How is the gang going?” he asks you as he allows you both into his house.
“Fine, the members are a little roudy but it’s to be expected I guess.” you explain as chifuyu stares.
“a good fight brings out the true members, remember that.” your grandpa says as he sips tea.
“what gang?” chifuyu asks, startling you.
“Uhm.. the yakuza.” you mumble as you start a quick conversation about something with your grandpa to switch topics.
“the yakuza?? What’s that?”
Tumblr media
-baji keisuke-
“Why do I have to meet your grandpa?” he asks as he shoves his hand in his pockets, the cold starting to get to his hands lacking their gloves.
“Because he’s like my father, Baji. He raised me, he should atleast know who my boyfriend is.” you deadpan as you hug his arm as you walk into his neighborhood.
“True, sorry.” he mutters as you near your relative’s house with shivers going thought both of your spines from the cold.
“Don’t cuss that much, alright?” you request as you knock on the door and he opens the door almost immediately after.
“How’s my favorite heir today?” your grandpa greets and he slings his arms around you.
“Good, pa.” you say with a smile as baji stands there awkwardly.
“Is this the young man?” your grandfather asks as he pats baji’s shoulder with a grin as baji nods.
“Pleasure to meet you sir.” he greets as your grandpa steps back astonished.
“Proper, impressive.” your grandpa laughs as he beckons you both inside.
“what’s the heir about?” baji asks as you almost choke on your food.
“Uh.. something for-”
“my yakuza. They seemed most fit out of the family. And basically the only one still left I guess.” he says sadly as you blush from embarrassment.
“Pa.. I was supposed to tell him later.” you say as your grandpa excuses himself and laughs.
“Sorry, forgot about that. Well, he knows now.” he cheers you up as you glare and laugh as bani sits there open-mouthed.
“THE YAKUZA CLAN?!”
Tumblr media
-Mikey-
“So.. are you sure your grandfather would approve of me? I’m in a gang, you know?” mikey asks as he fiddles with his fingers as you stand infront of your grandpa’s house.
“It’s fine Mikey.” you say with a smile as you both walk in, the tipical smell of the house welcoming you in as per usual.
“Hey y/n! Is this your boyfriend you mentioned visiting?” Your grandpa greets as he held out his hand, shaking Mikey’s with a grin.
“Yes, pa. He’s similar to us, being in a gang like me/ er you too. I think y’all will get along great!” you correct yourself, but mikey caught it.
“Gang like you?” he whispers after a while.
“Yeah, this little one is my heir. You know, for the yakuza.” your grandfather drops the bomb as mikey gapes at your embarrassed self.
“Yakuza? Like.. the yakuza?” he asks as he nibbles on his dorayaki and examines you again.
“I.. was going to tell you, I was!” you blurt out as you quickly explain yourself hoping he wasn’t mad.
“I’m not mad, that’s like.. so cool! and hot.” he exclaims as he begins to mumble things to himself as this newfound fact of you. You certainly didn’t look like a heir of a huge gang, but there is always another side of someone he guessed.

The Untamed Mind Dump (Spoilers duh)
(I have yet to read the novel for MDZS, and I am on Episode 47 of The Untamed so I want to do another mind dump like last time)
Jin Guangyao, I've been suspicious of him ever since I saw that face of his (I am not calling the actor ugly or anything like that, I can acknowledge its the acting that made him look suscpious not his actual face.) But I didn't excpect for him to be that sick of a human being.
Wei Wuxian being the scapegoat all over again
Damn these people love to gossip
I forgot about Wei Wuxian offering his Golden Core to Jiang Cheng
I miss Jiang Yanli bro
I also miss Wen Qing
At least I have Wen Ning, he is so awesome
I have the firm belief that while Wen Ning and Wei Wuxian are responsible for the death of Jin Zixuan, I know damn well Jiang Yanli's blood is not on Wei Wuxian's hands. Heck, I kind of think even though Wei Wuxian was the cause of Jin Zixuan's death, that that situation was obviously curated from the start, there was no intention to kill anyone that day because Wei Wuxian was doing this all in self defense. (Still sad that Jin Zixuan had to be a casualty).
I legit don't remember Su She before episode 45
The way I had to pause, sit up, stand up, walk around when that lady revealed Jin Guangyao tortured his father like that and what he did to Qin Su??? OH MY GOOOODDDDDDDD
Lan Wanji, you're the best supporter and best friend ever (I know in the novel he's Wei Wuxian's lover but in The Untamed their relationship is still amazing as best friends).
Wei Wuxian is such a great leader and protected those teens well (most of them are teens right? they all seemed kinda young)
I feel so bad for Jin Ling, all of his family's dirty laundry being aired out from both sides because his (defected) martial uncle is infamous for doing dirty tricks and is the supposed one who killed his parents, his maternal uncle being really hard on him, his paternal uncle being absolute scum and him doing things worse than what Wei Wuxian was ever accused for, and then to top it all off, he is constantly bullied.
To add to that, Jin Ling's outbursts are to be expected, he's just like his maternal uncle, really emotional. Jiang Cheng has had his outbursts of anger and aggressiveness (verbal and/or physical) and this could be the only way Jin Ling knows how to express himself.
At first I thought Jin Ling was an arrogant and stupid spoiled brat but I just want to hug this poor kid, the trauma of not having his parents and knowing that they died brutal deaths, the bullying, just everything. Just let him have a nice and warm blanket while snuggling with Fairy for once, please?
Speaking of Fairy, can people stop threatening the dog please? Like, they're such a good boy/girl (Netflix subtitles swapped them at somepoint from he to she and then it so I have no idea).
I WAS CRYING WHEN LAN SIZHUI STARTED TO REMEMBER HIS PAST AND THEN WEN NING WAS TRYING TO CATCH UP WITH HIM BRUH I WAS UGLY CRYING, SOBBING, THEY'RE FAMILY, THEY DESERVE TO SPEND TIME TOGETHER, THE LAST OF THE WEN FAMILY AAAA
I am such a sucker for reunited families, families with close bonds, found families, I don't know why, but it strikes me in the heart in such a painful and joyful way.
Zewu Jun, I always have mad respect for this man and I understand how he needs to make his own judgement and not only trust the words of others, I just can't blame him for that. But man was I afraid that he betrayed everyone by actually being 100% on Jin Guangyao's side knowing everything he did in episode 46, but he looked as confused and weirded out as ever so thankfully he isn't on his side anymore, I love this dude, I'm his biggest supporter.
I'll make each of these things their own post because I have so much more I want to say.

Idk why many people, including Charlie, thinks that Jonathan needs closure with his mom. It’s with his father he needs closure, he’s the root of his insecurities. Joyce his doing her best and loves Jonathan and wants him to move on, he knows that his mom is doing her best, loves him and wants him to move on, they’ve been functioning like that since Lonnie left and nothing is going to fundamentally change. Anything else is just retconning their relationships (unfortunately they did it a bit in S4 when Joyce didn’t notice him smoking weed, completely oot). But maybe Charlie just wants to work with Winona again, they haven’t had a good scene together since S1, and that’s totally legit!
Jonathan literally hasn’t had a real scene/talk with Joyce since s1; why would it be confusing for him to want that? He wants them to talk (there’s a lot she could help him sort through and a lot they could talk about—you think Lonnie would ever be there for him/be a source of closure?). I def think it’s also he wants to work with Winona again but also bc he thinks the Byers fam was an impt part of the show that’s been lost and he’s consistently said he’d like to see it in s5. Here was a slightly diff summary of his answer:

family ties - dad!hunter x mom!f!reader (AU)
Tumblr media
main masterlist ao3
⭒ summary: Five years have passed since Crosshair's betrayal. Five years since Omega's last step on Kamino. Five years since the birth of your and Hunter's son. In these five years, the past was nothing more than a whisper. Forgotten history. A stain that lingered ever so faintly, but never acknowledged. Yet even you are aware that history never stays hidden for long. One way or another, the past would resurface and your son would know of it all. Until then, you and Hunter decided that while you had the power to choose, you would do what was best for your child... including the long overdue meeting with his outcasted uncle. ⭒ word count: 4,8k ⭒ pairing: dad!hunter x f!reader ⭒ cw/tw: angst, fluff, parenting/motherhood, talk about having more children, au - i know i said this is a dad!hunter fic (which it is) but all the batchers have scenes in this because i love them all ⭒ a/n: hunter is legit a dad(dy) so this was soooo easy to write; i will say that it is 3 a.m and while i was determined to finish it, i was also falling asleep at multiple points during this writing so be aware that there might be mistakes cause i don't beta read :) have fun reading!
Tumblr media
Underneath the control panel in the cockpit of the Marauder, Tech wiped his grimy forehead with the back of his forearm before resuming the tedious crank of his wrench. His wrist ached, eyes burning from staring at the bolt that was less than an inch above his head. Everything smelled of metal, so much that Tech could even taste it. 
   When he worked alone, Tech often became dead to the outside world. He fell into his own bubble of concentration, blocking out any distractions that would hinder the efficiency of his task… until Koda came around. 
   Koda was only five but the older he grew, the more he presented himself as the not-exact-clone of his father. While he certainly had Hunter’s looks and long frizzy locks (which he refused to cut), Koda was half as much of you as he was his father - talkative, temperamental, and undeniably curious. 
   “Uncle Tech?” 
   “Yes, Koda?” 
   “What’s that?” 
   Tech had to crane his neck at an awkward angle to see the little boy in the pilot’s seat. Usually, Koda would have been sporting civvies that were too big for his small body, but today his mother dressed him in gray overalls and a red t-shirt. It was one of the few clothes that they bought to associate Koda with Clone Force 99, right alongside your own gear. 
   “What is what?” 
   Koda’s feet kicked back and forth as he pointed to the wrench in Tech’s hand. “That.” 
   “This is a wrench.” 
   “What’s it for?” 
   “Tightening nuts and bolts.” 
   “Why?” 
   “It is a tool that I frequently use for my repairs,” Tech prompted, turning his attention back to the panel. It took every ounce of self-control to refrain from using the correct jargon. Even so, Tech had a feeling that the young toddler was smarter than he led on. Since they were essentially sharing a percentage of identical DNA, there was some hope that Koda would end up an exceptional, intelligent pilot like his [favorite] uncle. 
   “Uncle Tech?” 
   “Yes, Koda?” 
   “Can I fly the Madara when I turn six?” The five-year-old pushed his hair away from his eyes and held up a single finger. “I turn six in one month.”
   “One year,” Tech said, though it came out as a grunt when the wrench wouldn’t budge. “Technically, eleven months and sixteen days. In standard time, of course.” 
   “I said that.” 
   Tech lowered his hand with a deep breath and wiped his face with his grease-stained palm, smudging it across his face. He slid out from underneath the control panel and sat up, resting his elbows on his knees. With his hands in his lap and his back as straight as a board, the little boy looked like a perfect angel. Tech could only narrow his eyes at the clear deception. 
   “If you memorize the specifications of the ship before you turn six, then I may let you copilot.” 
   Koda let out a whine. “That’s in so-o-o long.” 
   Tech rolled his eyes, hiding a small smile as he muttered, “I would argue it is not long enough.” 
   As he leaned back to resume working, Koda huffed a dramatic sigh and looked around the cockpit. He kicked his feet and played with his fingers in his lap, brown eyes flickering across the colorful buttons and bright blue flashes on the center control panel. He licked his lips as a thought began to develop; a thought that snowballed as Koda’s attention settled on the steering helm. 
   With a sneaky smile, he scooted to the edge of the too-big chair and wrapped his small hands around the sides of the helm. Sucking in a deep breath, Koda closed his eyes and began to fly the Marauder in his imagination, blowing raspberries to mimic the ship’s roaring engines. 
   Tech spared another glance and smiled, watching with the slightest look of fondness as Koda pressed various buttons and yanked the helm left and right. In the fluorescent lighting, with his hair down and scattered over his face, with his lips pulled back in the widest grin of childlike excitement, Koda looked so much like his father that Tech found himself sentimental over their childhood. They were once just as happy. Under different circumstances, of course, but he could vaguely remember Wrecker laughing like that when they were cadets. 
   It was a peculiar thought that he found himself pondering more and more as the months went by and Koda continued growing. He wondered how their pasts would have been, had they been raised like normal children. 
   Well, as normal as a clone could be. 
   But Koda was not a clone, and Tech believed that was what made his nephew particularly unique. Koda was only half clone. Only half of the DNA that made him identical to millions of others. The other half belonged to someone else entirely. He had your tenderness and empathy. Your kindness and affinity for helping others. He put bandaids on Echo’s prosthetics and showered Wrecker’s scars with kisses, but only after watching you gently kiss Hunter on the forehead when he was overwhelmed. Now, Koda looked like Hunter in fluorescent lights; like Wrecker whenever he laughed; like Echo when he pouted; like Crosshair when he glared; like Omega when he was too curious for his own good; and like Tech, full of joy and concentration when he flew. 
   Tech could only smile to himself as he resumed working. 
   Heavy footsteps echoed up the gangplank before Wrecker walked into the ship, turning his head left and right in search of something small. When he glanced toward the cockpit and saw Koda playing in the pilot’s seat, Wrecker’s face instantly brightened with a grin. “Hey, little guy!” 
   Koda forgot all about Tech and piloting the ship as he leaped out of the seat and sprinted right into his uncle’s open arms. He instinctively braced himself, shrieking with laughter as Wrecker tossed him up in the air and set him back down. 
   “Hi, Uncle Wrecker,” the boy grinned, reaching up to grasp a single finger with his small hand. “Can we play outside?” 
   Wrecker apologetically frowned as he crouched to a knee. He ruffled Koda’s long hair, muttering, “Can’t. Sorry kiddo, but your mom’s been lookin’ everywhere for ya’.” 
   Koda’s lip jutted in a pout, his gaze softening until he looked like a pleading pup. Wrecker groaned with guilt, cupping his hand over his eyes. “Don’t do that or I’ll end up sayin’ yes to everything and your mom and pop are gonna be mad at me.” 
   “But they can’t put you in time out.” 
   “Oh, yes they can,” Wrecker chuckled.
   Koda’s mouth fell open in shock. “But you’re too big!”
   “And you’re too small,” Wrecker growled, grabbing the boy by the back of his overalls to hoist him up in the air. Koda laughed the entire time as he was seated behind Wrecker’s head, legs hanging over his uncle’s shoulders. He placed both hands on Wrecker’s shiny head, stuck his nose up in the air, and dutifully cried out, “Spin, Uncle Wrecker, SPIN!” 
   When little Koda asked, Uncle Wrecker answered. How could he possibly say no to his nephew if he could hardly say no to Omega? They were the only two that could bend him to their will without even raising a pinky. Wrecker might have been the biggest, but he was certainly the softest when it came to the kids. 
   If only he had the energy for them. 
   It only took a few minutes of spinning and pretending to be a spaceship before Wrecker paused to catch his breath. Koda continued pretending to guide him, only pausing when he heard Omega’s voice coming from behind the ship. His eyes lit up as he craned his head to see her. “Is that Auntie Meg?” 
   Wrecker nodded and set out to find Omega. He walked around the ship, instinctively observing the forest around them. It wasn’t really a unanimous decision when they decided to land on Alderaan for repairs, but Tech assured them that the Empire wouldn’t bother looking for them on a planet that was so viciously protected by a previous senator of the Republic - and a devout one at that.
   You only allowed it because you didn’t want Koda to be in a faulty ship any longer than he already had to be. The trip back to Ord Mantell was long enough as is and the ship had taken some damage during its last mission. There was no time to fix the ship the last time they were planetside, so you did some persuading the moment the ship landed on solid ground. As always, your argument was won by a landslide against Tech’s meager, “The ship’s integrity is adequate enough to make it to Ord Mantell without any further complications.” 
   The moment you gave him a motherly glare, he sighed and got ready to work on the repairs.
   While Tech was inside the ship, buried underneath the control boards, Echo and Omega were outside to fix the few bumps and cracks in the Marauder’s underbelly. Omega stood by the ship with a flashlight in one hand and a long metal tool in the other, patiently waiting by the cybernetic legs that stuck out underneath the ship. Echo’s hand suddenly appeared, fingers curling as he said, “Spanner wrench.” 
   Omega placed the tool in his hand just as Wrecker and Koda approached. The sound of crunching branches and leaves caused her to turn her head. Whatever fatigue she felt from the labor suddenly faded, replaced by excitement as she cried out, “Buggy!”, and ran towards Koda with her hands raised. 
   Wrecker leaned over to let Koda slide right off of his shoulders and into his hands before resting him gently on the ground, only to be picked up moments later and placed on Omega’s hip. “Oh man,” she grimaced, struggling to adjust his place on her side. “You’re huge now, little bug. I think I’ll have to start calling you big bug from now on.”  
    Koda turned towards Wrecker with a smug expression, and Wrecker could only bark out a laugh when the boy mumbled, “Uncle Wrecker said I’m small. ”
   Omega rolled her eyes. “Uncle Wrecker likes to be mean sometimes.” 
   “Hey!” 
   Koda smiled as Echo rolled out from underneath the ship and stood. He wiped his hand free of grease with a nearby rag before playfully pinching Koda’s cherry-red cheek, greeting him with a warm, “Adi’ka.” 
   “Ba’vodu,” Koda grinned. “Are you helping Uncle Tech fix the ship?” 
   “Yes, I am.” Echo sighed, scratching at his head as he skimmed over the mess of ship parts and tools. “But it’s a lot more than I thought it’d be. Thankfully, Wrecker’s here just in time to help me. Right? ” 
   Wrecker furrowed his brows and opened his mouth to object when Echo suddenly tipped his head towards Koda and Omega. He warily glanced at them, sagging his shoulders when he saw just how happy Omega was to be holding Koda. Defeated, he begrudgingly agreed to stay. 
   Echo smirked, satisfied. “Good. Omega, why don’t you take Koda to Hunter and the Missus? They should be by the lake.” 
   Omega visibly relaxed, melting into her shoes with relief. She nodded and glanced at Koda with a grin. “Ready to see your parents?” 
   Koda hastily nodded. Initially, he wasn’t too happy about giving up his time with his uncles to go to his mother and father, but the longer he thought about them, the more he began to miss them. Even if it was just a few hours since you and Hunter departed, Koda felt as if it had been a lifetime. 
   “Bye ba’vodu Echo!” Koda waved as he and Omega walked into the forest. “Bye Uncle Wrecker!” 
   Wrecker and Echo grinned and waved. The moment the kids were out of earshot, he leaned over and muttered, “He knows he’s comin’ back… right?” 
   Echo’s face twisted into an are-you-serious-right-now expression. Wrecker just shrugged. The two turned back to the ship and put their hands on their hips at the same time. 
   “This is gonna take a while.” 
   “Aw, man.” 
In the woods, Koda walked alongside Omega with his hand in her own. She happily pointed out the bugs and different trees that she researched on Tech’s datapad during her brief breaks. Koda listened intently, hanging onto every word that she spoke. Out of the many reasons why Omega loved being in Koda’s company, his desire to learn was definitely one of her favorites. No matter the subject, Koda always seemed happy to not only listen while Omega went off on a tangent but he was quick to dissect and understand everything she said. 
   “-and this is a Brigsby Beetle.” They both crouched by a boulder, watching the black beetle that slowly crawled over the moss. Koda reached out to touch it but Omega gently seized his wrist before he could be pinched by the beetle’s massive pincers. “We don’t want to touch this one, buggy. It has something called venom and venom doesn’t feel good.” 
   Koda furrowed his brows. “Venom?” 
   Omega nodded, briefly thinking of an explanation before she settled on,  “Like a nasty tummy ache, but a lot worse.” 
   “I don’t like tummy aches.” Koda shuddered and took a step back.
   “Ko-o-o-da!” 
   The two children perched their heads up at the sound of your sing-song voice. Koda grinned, excitedly bouncing on the balls of his feet at the thought of seeing his mother. 
   “It’s mommy!” He whispered happily, clenching one of Omega’s fingers to give it an excited shake. With that, Koda took over and began leading her to the lake, following the sound of your voice and the splash of water. It was his enhanced hearing that led him to the rocky shore of one of Alderaan’s beautiful lakes; his sharp vision that noticed you and Hunter long before Omega even thought to look.
   While she took a moment to gape at the gorgeous view of mountains and trees, Koda let go of her hand and ran toward the two silhouettes sitting comfortably on a log. You were wet from head to toe having just gotten out of the river. A woven basket of gutted and cleaned fish lay in front of you and Hunter like a testimony of your teamwork. 
   The sound of Koda’s giggles had Hunter standing on his feet before you could even acknowledge it. You turned just in time to see Koda barrel into his open arms before being hoisted up to Hunter’s chest. Koda’s arms wrapped around his neck while Hunter cupped the back of his head, the two savoring a second just to squeeze each other tightly. 
   “Hi, daddy,” Koda murmured into his neck, melting into his father’s arms with relief. He pulled away to shyly tuck his chin to his chest, cheeks flushed red. “I missed you.” 
   “Not me?” You faked a pout as you joined them, poking Koda’s red nose with your fingertip. He held out his arms and Hunter wasted no time shifting him over to you, giving you a chance to hug your son while Hunter greeted Omega with a ruffle of her hair and an affectionate smile. 
   Koda pulled away to kiss your cheek.
   “I missed you too, mommy,” he said like it was a well-known fact. “Always.” 
   “Me too, buggy,” you said, kissing his temple. “Me too.” 
   Hunter pushed back Koda’s hair from his face, frowning. “Where’s your bandana, adi’ka?” 
    Koda innocently shrugged. 
   Before Hunter could even ask, Omega held up her wrist, offering her hair tie with a knowing smile. He thanked her and slipped it off, shifting behind Koda so that he could pull his long hair back and tie it up in a loose bun. “There, that should do it.” 
   “Thank you, daddy.” 
   You shut your eyes and softly exhaled through your mouth. Don’t cry. Don’t cry. Don’t cry. He’s just cute. You don’t have to cry. Seriously- 
    “So,” Omega hummed, placing her hands on her hips. “Why are you two still here if you caught so many fish? Echo, Tech, and Wrecker are all working on the ship and I think repairs would go by faster if we all helped.” 
   For just a moment, you didn’t know what to say. In that second, Omega sounded and looked so mature that you felt like you were talking to a mix of all the guys. Even Hunter, who paused for a moment, seemed to have this revelation as he stared at her. The two of you shared a sentimental look before he glanced toward the other side of the narrow lake, observant eyes narrowing ever-so-slightly. 
    Hunter wanted to tell her the truth but you could see that he was hesitating. Neither one of you wanted to hurt her or the others, but now that she was here, you had no choice but to be honest. Handing Koda off to Hunter, you gently took Omega’s hand and walked her to the lakeshore. 
   “Omega…” You bit your lip and she frowned. “We didn’t tell the others because we didn’t know how this would go… but we didn’t land here just for repairs.” 
   Her brows furrowed and for a brief moment, you saw Crosshair in her facial expression. “What? Why are we on Alderaan then?” 
   As if waiting for her to ask that exact question, the sound of footsteps and crunching branches echoed from the treeline. Omega didn’t miss the way you defensively tensed, locking eyes with Hunter as he carried Koda to you. Gently setting him down on the ground, Hunter took a step in front of his son to hide him behind his legs just as a charcoal silhouette stepped out of the forest. 
   Omega immediately went still. 
   Crosshair looked just as worn and tired as he did five years ago on Kamino, albeit the scar on the side of his head had faded into nothing and his face was greyed with stubble. That damned toothpick was still in the corner of his mouth, right where it belonged. But there was something different in the way he walked, as if a phantom limp was slightly deterring his balance. Regardless, he kept the same sly confidence when lifting his shadowy gaze up from the ground.
   “When I got your message to meet here, I thought you were joking.” 
   Five years. Five years and that was what he had to say? After you, Omega, and his own brothers, saved him on Kamino just for him to turn his back once again? 
   Your anger suddenly outweighed the grief of his absence. 
   “You prick-” Angrily taking a step forward, you moved with the determination to choke him alive when a meek little voice made you stop and crash back into reality. 
   “Mommy?” 
   Koda looked just as confused as he was afraid. He was too small to understand anything other than the fact that you were trembling with anger, Omega looked like she’d seen a ghost, and Hunter was silent yet rigid with the protectiveness of a bear. You could only imagine what was going on through your little one’s head. 
   Taking his hand in your own, you pulled Koda in front of you and crouched, bringing his cold fingers up to your lips for an assuring kiss. “It’s ok, buggy. This is Crosshair.” 
   Koda nervously looked at Crosshair, who stared at him with a blend of shock and disbelief. Just as quickly as it came, the surprise faded and Crosshair’s expression hardened when it shifted to Hunter. 
   “I see you’ve been busy.”
   “This is a mistake,” Omega immediately interjected, reaching out to grab Hunter’s tense wrist. He ripped his attention away from his brother to glance down at the worried blonde. “We can’t let him see Koda. He’ll mention it to the Empire and they’ll know about him and-” 
   “Relax,” Hunter advised, his voice surprisingly steady. “He’s not here to hurt us.” 
   As if to reinforce this statement, Hunter locked eyes with Crosshair. 
   Crosshair only grunted, shifting his toothpick from one side of the mouth to the other, eyes flitting back down to you, then to Koda. Unbelievably, his cold stare softened. 
   “Does he know about me?” 
   “No,” Hunter responded gruffly, dismissing the stinging betrayal that briefly flashed across Crosshair’s face. “Wasn’t sure if you wanted him to know.” 
   Crosshair’s shoulders dropped just slightly. If the comment stung, he hid his facial reaction well. “Hm. Good call.” 
   “I asked you to come here so I could give you a chance.” Hunter glanced back at you before giving Koda a small smile. He held out his hand and like a magnet, Koda took it, allowing Hunter to pull him up to the front.
   You took Omega’s hand in your own and she squeezed it tight, hoping to ease your own nerves. 
   Crosshair moved his toothpick again and Koda watched it with confused fascination. The boy’s expression was so similar to Hunter’s that for just a heartbeat, Crosshair looked as if he’d seen a ghost. 
   “You know I won’t go back,” he murmured after a pause of silence. “You know I can’t.” 
   “That’s not what we’re asking, Cross,” Hunter muttered. “I just don’t want to keep my son away from you any longer.” 
    My son. 
   By the look on Crosshair’s face, you assumed that the words had barely just settled in his mind. This wasn’t just another child; not another clone to look at with annoyance. This was Hunter’s son. Your son. Crosshair was just another stranger to him. Crosshair, the brother that once was his closest confidant; the one who’d have his back in every battle across every star system. Now he was a no-one, both to Hunter and his son. 
   Gathering your wits, you took a step forward. “Crosshair… you know how important you are to this family. Something like that isn’t so easily forgotten. Don’t let the Imperial be the man that we introduce to Koda. Let him know the friend that I once had when we fought for the Republic; when we fought for good in this galaxy.” 
   The toothpick snapped in half. Crosshair discarded it but didn’t retrieve another as he flitted his gaze between Koda and Hunter. The resemblance was uncanny. Crosshair took another moment to stare before slowly exhaling through his nose. He finally moved, opting to sit on a large boulder. 
   Slowly as to not make any sudden movements, he removed his pack and set it down, unsheathing his knives and hidden blasters. When he was left in nothing but his bland charcoal armor, Crosshair stood and walked towards you and Hunter. Even weaponless, you couldn’t help but feel unease.
   Crosshair stopped just an arm’s length away from Hunter and Koda, and with a glance towards his brother, he crouched in front of his nephew. 
   “Koda, huh?” 
   Koda nodded nervously, shrinking into Hunter’s side. Hunter kneeled, gently palming the boy’s jaw to turn his head towards Crosshair. The moment he looked, Koda returned to the safety of Hunter’s neck, burying his face there as if he could shrink his whole body and disappear. Hunter soothingly rubbed his hand up and down his son’s back. “You don’t have to be shy, Koda. This is Crosshair, he’s your…” 
   He hesitated, cautiously meeting Crosshair’s eyes. . 
   “...Uncle,” The silver-haired clone finished with the ghost of a smile on his lips. 
   Koda unfurled from the shelter of Hunter’s body. He nervously looked between Crosshair and his father, only moving further after receiving an assuring smile and a little nudge. 
   “Go on. He won’t hurt you.”
   Crosshair watched with a peculiar expression as Koda timidly approached him. The boy’s hair was up in a rough bun but a few strands fell in front of his face; Crosshair had to clench his jaw to refrain from calling him Hunter by mistake. 
   “Go on, adi’ka,” you encouraged softly. “Crosshair is just like Uncle Wreck and Ba’vodu Echo.” 
   “He’s family,” Omega finally spoke, meeting Crosshair’s gaze for the first time since he arrived. He lowered his chin but held her stare and in that brief second, the two had an exchange far more powerful than words could ever describe. A silent apology and its silent forgiveness. Not that she really needed time to consider it anyway. A piece of Omega would always find forgiveness for him, regardless of how many years they spend apart.
   This seemed to ease Koda’s nerves. He looked more relaxed as he walked right up to Crosshair, stopping just a few inches in front of his wayward uncle. Crosshair uncomfortably refrained from making eye contact but before he could keep it that way, Koda’s small hand cupped his cheek, holding him in place. 
   “You look like daddy,” he curiously whispered, soft enough for Crosshair to hear and Hunter to detect. The two of them shared a sad glance before Crosshair cleared his throat. 
   “He’s my brother.” 
   “I don’t have brothers,” Koda stated smartly, his chipper tone easing the noticeable tension. 
   Crosshair arched a brow and looked at you, giving you a familiar smirk that made your chest ache. “Maybe you might one day. Or somethin’ else. You’ve got options.” 
   Crossing your arms over your chest, you snorted and rolled your eyes. “Yeah let me just get accidentally pregnant again.” 
    The brief banter made Hunter smile. You and Crosshair used to be like this all the time, from the day you were assigned to their team to the day that the war ended. Bantering was your form of friendship and now, even if the moment was short, it felt so right. Like nothing had changed and the two of you fell right back into step with one another. 
   Crosshair opened his mouth to add something else when Koda held up his hands with an expectant smile. 
   “Pick me up?” 
   Crosshair paled. “No, I don’t think-- I can’t-” 
   Koda jutted his bottom lip. “Please?” 
   Crosshair’s evident discomfort made you giggle. Nonetheless, he gently scooped Koda up by his armpits and held him out with his arms extended and his elbows locked. “You’re a funny-looking thing.” 
   Koda’s brows furrowed. “Mommy says I’m the handsomest.”
   “Mm. She would say something like that.” 
   You leaned against Hunter’s side as he put his arm over your shoulders, holding you close enough to press his lips against the shell of your ear. While Crosshair had seemingly accepted Koda and vice versa, you could feel the tension still lingering in Hunter’s guarded stance and weary stare. 
   The last thing he wanted to do was get his son attached to his brother, only for Crosshair to deal the same cards as he did on Kamino. The galaxy would surely burn if Koda’s heart were to ever break. 
   “Did I make a good decision?” 
   Now that he’d been a father for five years, Hunter was better at voicing his worry. When it came to his son, he’d never shy away from concern or worry, even blatant overprotectiveness. 
   “You made the best decision for today,” you murmured, turning your head to kiss his cheek. He exhale and leaned into your touch, soaking in the assurance. “We’ll worry about tomorrow when we get there.” 
   Omega’s small hand wrapped around Hunter’s, squeezing tight enough to make his head turn her way, brows furrowed in worry. 
   “You promise you can trust him?” 
   Hunter hesitated. He couldn’t make an empty promise like that, even if his son was now standing by Crosshair’s side, holding onto a slim finger as he led the unwilling sniper toward the lakeshore in search of bugs and shiny rocks. In an odd, messed up way, Hunter always felt willing to trust his brother, to die for him, but that was just years of habit. He’d always felt that way, so when the time came for him to prioritize his wife and son, Hunter had to unlearn this instinct. His brothers would always be equipped to keep themselves safe but you? Koda? He wouldn't be able to forgive himself if he made the promise only to have it broken in the future. 
   So you decided to make the promise for him. 
   “I trust him,” you assured, brushing a strand of hair out of Omega’s eye and behind her ear. “I trust him with Koda because Koda?” You met Hunter’s eyes. “ He is evidence that there’s a future for us beyond smuggling and running jobs for Cid… And I think he is helping Crosshair realize that.” 
   Maybe Koda could successfully warm Crosshair’s heart. Maybe the boy’s love of rocks could somehow chip away the cold walls that Crosshair had built. Or maybe, after the sunset, when Koda would climb into the cot with his parents, Crosshair would report to Rampart the news that Hunter,  the leader of Clone Force 99, had a son. One with enhanced hearing, at that. A product of a clone, surely to be taken and examined or eradicated entirely for being seen as nothing more than a nuisance. As if the Empire needed more children born with rebel ideology. 
   Or maybe, just maybe, the sound of Koda's giggle and Crosshair’s light chuckle was a sign that something had already begun to change. 
   And now it was simply time to wait and see.

I have concrete evidence--not even concrete, more like steel reinforced BRICKwork with scaffolding support level of evidence that Taekook isn't real. Okay, like I promise I'm not a Kookminer. I'm really not. My bias is actually Suga and I used to like Yoongmin so I have no dog in this fight BUT---
I accidentally watched five Kookjiminie videos on YouTube and I saw something that now has me questioning; was Taekook ever real !?? In these videos (I wish I could find them but I can't sorry and they seem to have disappeared from my YouTube history) but I noticed a disturbing pattern. In one of these video clips, I noticed that Jimin's husband, Jungkook, blinked three times in a row at Jimin and only two times in a row at Taehyung and that's when I knew, Taekook was over. This might surprise some people who don't know me but I actually studied Body Language Language to an FBI level and I specialised specifically in Blinkage and Morse Code of The Eye. I have attended every YouTube tutorial video in that free online course so I can assure you my skills are legit.
Don't get me wrong. I do think Taekook dated when they were like 17 or something but then I also think Taehyung's soulmate and Tae's boyfriend fell in love with each other and just couldn't help but have an affair or maybe Tae and Jimin's lover, Jungkook, broke up and then Jimin decided to swoop in then and steal his soulmate + best friend's ex boyfriend because hoes before bros and dates before soulmates, right?
I know it might seem like I ship Jiminie❤️Kookie but I swear on my mother's grave that I don't. I'm actually more of a Jihopie shipper but listen, I grew up in an orphanage since birth and I've never had any family but myself so even before I became an expert Body Language expert, I knew better than anyone how to observe people's intentions and I hate (honestly I HATE) to say this but I think the real ship might be JiminKook4eva. I really do. I swear on my father's life that I don't ship it but I can't deny it that there's a LOT of evidence that they got married in Japan.
They were both in Japan for a start.
I know I probably won't convince you and I'm honestly not here to try to but I've got five more essays lined up about why you should listen to me and believe what I'm saying and stop shipping Taekook because let's be real, Taehyung has literally said that he hates it--and I know some people think he was talking about the fan fantasising about Jimin's life partner, Jungkook, but that's only one interpretation so he literally hates it.
Please, please listen to me for some reason. I don't really know what that reason is because I swear I'm not a J+M+RingFinger=JikookieMarried shipper at all!!
Just listen to me because you're going to be sorry and crying if you don't when you read my 10900 word dissertation of PURE concrete evidence with compiled pictures, videos, fanart and fan theory that I have attached to this ask. I used an AI program to help me put this portfolio together so obviously, you know that it's legit and 100% correct (Hopefully the attachment shows up but if not then I think it sadly might have disappeared with the YouTube videos)
Lots of love from ~Turn the V upside down and you get A for ARMY~ xx
Omg anon… you totally opened my eyes!

If you could rewrite sylvie to make her a character you liked and a character worthy of Loki's love, what would you do differently?
Good question! Ugh, I supposed starting entirely fresh and from scratch or just swapping her out for Sigyn is off the table? Let's see...
1- Make her anything but another Loki. The selfcest thing is the only thing worse than Sylvie's actual characterization. Starting off by giving her an entirely different identity. I mean, while I find Thorki and all incest ships to be 'ewww-y', I guess I'd have less of an issue if she was a Thor Variant. Maybe ditching the romance angle and making her an Odin Variant that Loki has to develop his redemption arc through by means of confronting the relationship he had with his adopted father. But no, that'd be deep and interesting.
2- Get rid of her pissy attitude! God, can she be any less approachable? Honestly, I think if I had the choice of being pruned or going on an adventure with her, I'd chose the former. She's not pleasant or fun, she's too driven by her trauma and selfishness that she doesn't care for her teammates, and she prefers to put down instead of motivate, so there's no reason whatsoever to thrown in your lot with her. Someone like her would be an absolute detriment to The Avengers, so why should she be considered an asset or ally to Loki and Mobius? And why should audiences be expected to sympathize with her?
Also, why do the writers of this show think fans of Loki, who CLEARLY are the target audience of this show (or else it wouldn't literally be called "Loki") would be game for just watching him get his ass kicked and/or demeaned every five minutes? That's like advertising the world's most satisfying James Bond movie, only to kill Bond in the first act and have the rest of the film be about Pussy Galore.
3- Revamp herbackstory to make it less of an eyeroller. Sylvie had the single most cardboard cut out backstory known to storytelling. Take out her name and actor and you'd have every Meg Ryan and Sandra Bullock character from 1990-2005. In this massive MCU, the writers couldn't come up with ANYTHING better than a girl/woman who has to fend for herself in a cruel, mean world that just doesn't understand her?
Like....anything?
Even half-assing it could develop something better. How about making her a trained assassin that Loki has to de-program? Yeah, it's far from a unique premise, and I'm sure Waldron couldn't do it any better than Winter Soldier did, but it's still better than what we are expected to support here.
4- Recasting the role. Nothing against Sophie DiMartino, but she and Tom have no romantic chemistry. Even without the bickering and terrible writing, their dynamic would be more suited to an estranged brother and sister at best.
I haven't decided if I'm in the camp of fancasting Zawe alongside Tom in the MCU, especially now that she's been placed elsewhere and her character in The Marvels probably won't ever encounter Loki, but at least we know there'd be legit chemistry between them, and it would be easier to digest the pairing (probably just cute seeing them play off each other on screen too).
If not Zawe, maybe a big character actor that we know can swashbuckle but also be soft and sympathetic, like Keira Knightly or Zhang Ziyi.
