hai!!! Would you he willing to write something with Jonathan taking care of a regressed Dio? Jojo being a good big brother to Dio makes me very happy.. They're the brothers ever... anything you want as the prompt :3

Jonathan takes Dio shopping when he's not feeling quite big or small. Sometimes they don't buy anything, and just look at toys or sweets. Dio likes sweet the most, and usually gets as much as his brother will let him! But today, he had a different "spearmint" in mind:

Marbles. A scoop of glass slag swirls, in white and mint green (since clay was so boring). A solid colour of a grey-green or a dull red can't compare to having white and green spearmint twists, or reflecting orange and yellow cat-eye waves in the dirt circle when rolling.

Not that Jonathan ever bought the clay marbles in Dio's room. They're hand-me-downs from his big brother, as a gift for the little. Jojo won almost all of them when he still played in school.

Which is why Dio loved knocking them out of the ring with his new glass marbles-- the fanciest the toy store had. He didn't feel like he was winning using Jojo's old toys.

And Dio always wins! He has to, since he's so good at everything, just like he says.

Jonathan is just happy to see his brother get excited while playing together. Dio is getting rather good at marbles! Maybe they'll have to start playing for keeps. Though he doubts the little one would like to share his new toys. Suppose it's not too bad to bet sweets instead- As long as it keeps him out of trouble.

Neutral words for littles

my friend

buddy

pal

kiddo

buckaroo

silly billy

goofball

These words should work for any age and any gender! It's often tough to find words to call older little-age regressors (7-18) so I thought it would be nice to share some.

i love that seals are carnivores and then they always look exactly like that:

[oberthinkin]

Do you do head canons, perhaps?

The asker on that PSA post turned out to be kind of an unsavory type beyond just rudeness, but the general message is important so i'm archiving it here.

The thing about seals is their PR is ideal: they're cute and round and all, there's tons of videos of aquarium workers having fun interacting with them. They're just so cute, it should be fine to get all close and touch one when you see one in the wild, right?

Well...nope. Despite their lack of mobility on land, seals are still Carnivora, and their closest relatives are bears: even the cutest smallest seals have sharp claws and teeth for hunting fish.

One of the top predators in the Antarctic waters is the Leopard seal, and Elephant seals (who tend to live around places humans live, too) can be aggressive and their thick skin and fat help them withstand blows that would pulverize the average human.

However, this isn't just for your safety, but theirs too! As some of you may know, the US has the Marine Mammal Protection Act, which plainly serves to protect the ecosystems of marine mammals such as seals. It prohibits the "taking" of marine mammals, which includes not only killing and displacing the animals but also "harassment", which in turn is defined as behavior that has the potential to either injure said wild mammal or disturb behavioral patterns: breathing, feeding, breeding, migrating, sheltering, nursing. Any US aquarium with seals, or scientists bothering seals for research have received a permit to take them from their natural habitat and harass them. That doesn't mean that once you're outside the US you're free to stick your hand into that Leopard seal's mouth: regulations are written in blood, laws aren't just required but can just be common sense even when they don't apply where you are. A lot of facilities containing seals are rescue centers; the seals have to be there for their own good because of an injury or disease.

This has been a Sealsdaily PSA; please remember that most interactions with seals you see out there are done by professionals who have been permitted and trusted to interact with these animals, and if it's an everyman doing the interacting it can lead to consequences.

Oh i didn't know about seal finger before, but that's also a valid point about taking caution in human-seal interactions.

Technically this one is less "seal puncture leads to disease" and more "seals live in the same area as Mycoplasma bacteria that can infect punctures", but like, again, just, general safety. Seals aren't an outlier; if you see any wild animal it's best to keep your distance

Outrageous! Silly cg, you should be giving Dio cuddles!

Ohh... dio realizing he gets praise/comfort when he makes small mistakes so he starts purposely breaking things and such and is confused when he gets in trouble

PFFF

"Okay mister you're going into time out!"

"But last time I bit Jona I got cuddles >:("

[oberthinkin]

am i too late for the ask game? if not could you do r , v and x for fugo ? /nf

R - regression [How often do they regress? How do they behave when they regress?]

Fugo doesn't like regressing, so he tries to avoid it at all cost - when he finally is little, he usually throws a tantrum right away, poor boy can't control his emotions well!

V - voice [Do they speak in a different tone of voice when regressed? How is it different from their normal voice?]

Fugo tends to rather mumble and speak quieter when he's small. He practices not raising his voice even when he's angry while regressed, especially since Giorno and Abbacchio are hypersensitive to loud sounds

X - (e)xtra [Additional headcanons?]

He has his own Anger Corner! It's a place where he stays instead of a regular time out, there are fidget toys there, boombox with lullabies and pillows he can punch!
