#How soft Ed's here 🥺

[blue-b-bro]

I'm still not over this

[11queensupreme11]

Okkk I saw the new ask and what if-what if both Percy and the said yandere got isekaied to the past?

Or what if yanderes got isekaied to when they first met Percy how would they react?

I just know Poseidon's reaction will shock the hell out of everyone 😂

if the yans got isekai-ed to when they first meet percy:

LOKI WOULD BE HORRIBLE LMAO CUZ WHO'S THE FIRST PERSON PERCY MEETS?? (aside from the angels who were guarding the bifrost) LOKI 😭😭😭😭

loki is absolutely gonna snatch her away before ANYONE finds out about her existence and he's gonna make sure to kill any witnesses (the angels who saw her). he fucked things up by trying to kill her in the og timeline, so now he's gonna pretend to be a nice, helpful friend. "oh no ur lost and you don't know how to get home? 🥺 poor thing, here i'll hide you in the palace while i try to find a way to get you back home" but obviously he doesn't do that, so he just keeps her hidden and more importantly, isolated with only him for company. HOWEVER, he's not gonna keep her in the basement forever ofc, his biggest advantage is his cloak that hides her presence so he can totally take her out on dates with the cloak on her so she won't ever go stir-crazy

POSEIDON'S ACTUALLY GONNA BE LOWKEY RELIEVED 😭😭 we all know how shitty he was in the beginning, well now he sees this as the perfect chance restart and avoid all his mistakes so he's gonna be EXTREMELY intense at the first meeting, which only makes percy freak out more cuz at least in the og timeline, it was gradual and she was able to slowly love him, but in here??? nah, she's just weirded out 24/7 😭 everyone else is gonna be just as freaked out as her because WHYYYY on earth is poseidon acting SOFT???? and POSSESSIVE??? PROTECTIVE?????? over this random girl that just got shoved into his care??? surely he can't be THIS eager for fatherhood, right???? oh and he almost IMMEDIATELY marries her much to percy's horror, he's not risking another hades situation (also, poor man's confused as to why his baby brother suddenly hates him LMAO 😭😭😭) he also NEVER lets her out of his sight this time. his baby kept getting kidnapped 24/7 so he practically latches onto her like a clingy, paranoid cat 😭😭 percy needs to pee? he's right out the door. she needs to be educated on how things work? he's plopping her right on his lap while proteus drones on about lessons. he's never making the mistake of letting her out of his sight.

hades is gonna be soooo sly and sneaky. he's gonna take it slow and act completely normal and basically let things go on with the flow.... UNTIL THE FATEFUL DAY WHERE PERCY GETS LOST IN VALHALLA WHICH LEADS TO POSEIDON BEING PISSED. and then you know, she runs away. hades lets this all happen because he knows that sometime afterwards, after a meeting with beelzebub, she asks to go to adamas. well, after her session with beelzebub, he CONVENIENTLY shows up like "percy, are you okay? 🥺 i'm so worried about you, i know my brother can be a bit horrible at times, would you like to stay with me for the time being?" and bam, he snatches her up before she could even think of going to adamas and then the grooming begins 💀

you know how the cover-up is that beelzebub's trying to find ways to safely ascend her??? welp, in this au, he's gonna straight up ascend her the second she's handed over to him. HOWEVER!!!! not right away 😈 since their first meeting happens when poseidon still isn't fond of her, beelie's gonna take advantage of it and make a deal with poseidon "i'll find a way to safely ascend your daughter, but in exchange, i wish for her hand in marriage" and naturally, poseidon would (eventually) approve because why wouldn't he? he doesn't want a filthy half-breed for a child and beelzebub IS almost as perfect as him; he's powerful, looks down on humans and other gods, doesn't rely on anyone, etc. etc, he wouldn't mind having him as a son-in-law. so poseidon accepts the deal, percy is (forcefully) ascended, and with her father's approval, is eternally bound to beelzebub through marriage AND the contract her father signed

apollo WON'T try to kidnap percy this time lmao!!! he's gonna ascend to midgard and see her poking her out of the seas and be like "hi there 😍 whatcha dooooing???" and she's gonna be like "oh, hi, i was just looking for new york, but i think this is greece, so imma just go" and then he'll be like "oh i can take you to new york!!!!!!" and even tho he cant stand the filthy city, he happily takes her there (and since their first meeting happens BEFORE the beelcy date, that means apollo just unknowingly snatched beel's chance of taking her to new york LMAO). obviously, poseidon finds out, loses his shit, and tries to kill apollo but percy defends him, this time more fiercely because of how much she enjoyed spending time with him. anyway, this is SUPER good for him because this definitely gave her a better first impression of him compared to the og timeline 😂

anubis first meets percy during mimir's funeral and he takes advantage of percy's adoration for kids, so what does he do??? summon kebi after the funeral, gives her a handful of flowers and says "see that pretty girl over there strangling Loki? give her these flowers and call her pretty! 🥰" and obviously she does it and percy melts and because she's nice, assumes she's lost and helps her find her daddy. kebi purposely walks all over the place, using this time to lay out their babie charms to win percy over and then when some time passes, anubis comes running over like "omg 😱😱 kebi, there you are i've been looking everywhere 😱😱 oh wow, who's this pretty princess with you?? 🥰". he cemented a pretty damn good first impression cuz now she equates him to "good dad". and when they run into each other again in helheim, he tricks her into a marriage and THIS TIME, doesn't waste time in mating her to make her PERMANENTLY his 😍

(no cú chulainn here cuz he shows up in act 2 and i don't wanna spoil how they meet hehe sorry!)

now if they BOTH got isekai-ed into the past.... (assuming they all know the truth too and also they're both kids like in the previous ask):

12 year old poseidon is immediately gonna drag percy's ass to sea 💀 oh she wants to go to camp??? wants to see her mom??? HELL NO. he's not spending a second longer in that shithole of a country and he's going straight to atlantis to Fight God (his counterpart lmao) and for once percy actually has the brain cell in this duo and is trying to tell him how much of a TERRIBLE idea that is since he's literally fucking 12 💀 but then a monster attacks and now percy REALLY needs to get their asses to camp but poseidon keeps losing his shit every step of the way because everything is quite literally out to kill his baby 😭😭😭 knowing percy, she's probably gonna feel so bad and scared for her dad's sake that she goes "you should go on without me 😞 if i stick around with you, i'll only put you in danger 😞😞 here's the directions to camp--" but then he just throws her into the ocean before jumping in with her 💀

hades is trying to stay calm but it's kinda hard for him to do that when everything is a monster trying to kill his niece and he can hardly protect her because he's fucking twelve years old and a human 💀 he's trying to be calm and rational and all like "alright, how about we just go up to olympus and talk to this universe's zeus--" "he hates me." ".....okay, how about my counterpart---" "also kinda hates me." "poseidon???" "we can't interact or zeus'll kill me." "is there ANYONE we can go to for help that won't try to kill you?!?!?!" "mmmm not really, oh and also ur dad's alive here". he's done 💀

apollo is just clinging on to percy out of misery, fear, and desperation. he's been turned into a human AGAIN, and even though he has some bits of his power, it's kinda useless since he's TWELVE AND IN A FOREIGN UNIVERSE THAT KEEPS STRESSING HIM OUT. the worst part is that he keeps trying to fist fight every monster that tries to kill his beloved (reminder that ror!apollo is also known as the god of boxing!!!) but it's kinda useless since the monsters here can only die from an enchanted metal which none of them have yet cuz they haven't reached camp 😭😭

beelzebub is freaking out (which is no surprise whenever percy's involved). they haven't even been in this universe for ten minutes and they already have a horde of monsters after them AND the police AND the country apparently thinks percy's a terrorist mastermind while he's her... sidekick??? ok, he's a little offended by that, but he's also just baffled at how chaotic percy's life is 😭 he can barely get a break before another monster pops up!!! they've been trying to get to camp half-blood but they are TWELVE, with NO MONEY, and EVERYONE IS AFTER THEM. beelzebub is absolutely horrified at the state of her life, what do you mean this is normal for you??? to be constantly on the run and attacked and starving and SOMETIMES YOU GOTTA SLEEP ON THE STREETS?????????? he is only twelve years old and he's already balding, someone get this man back home he can NOT survive the demigod life as a human nor can he stand percy going through this 😭😭😭😭

with loki AND percy, you best believe they're gonna somehow become INTERNATIONALLY WANTED CRIMINALS within the first hour of being isekai-ed 😭😭 usually loki would be entertained, but he's twelve years old, not a god, and monsters are trying to kill the love of his life (who is also now twelve). percy is desperately trying to get this man to go on ahead without her for his own safety but he is NOT splitting up with his girl!!!!! he also doesn't want her to go to camp cuz that's where all the attention-hogging "inferiors" are and he doesn't want them trying to take percy away.... but the monsters won't stop and camp is the only safe haven for her, so he grits his teeth and goes with her because he doesn't want her dead.

anubis is excited!!!! sure he's not happy to lose his divinity and look like a 12 year old, but percy's 12 too and omgggg she just looks soooooo cute 🥺🥺🥺🥺 he wishes kebi were here so all three of them can just run around new york and have playdates everyday, but then reality HARSHLY smacks him in the face when the first monster attack happens and he can't protect percy as well as he'd like. now he's no longer smiling and he's been reduced to a paranoid mess while percy tries to comfort him and get to camp. she'll also suggest that maybe they split up because of how dangerous it'd be for him if he stuck with her but he gets flashbacks of that one time percy ditched him and loses his shit 💀

with cú chulainn, it wouldn't be that different from the previous asks, the only difference is that percy would be sassier and more annoying to him because she knows full well who is he is 😂 but anyway, unlike the gods, he has no issues protecting percy because his body's not that different, just de-aged, so he's not being weakened by mental breakdowns like the gods are from losing their divinity LMAO. anyway, he refuses to let her go to camp cuz he thinks the place is stupid anyway and why would you wanna go there and be sent to numerous quests and a war??? he knows she hates always having to fight, but he'll get pissed when he finds out its cuz she misses her loved ones. they get into an argument, break split up and percy heads to camp while he eventually goes after her to make sure she makes it there safely while also trying to find a way to get them back home

[kingnlionhearts]

4, 50, and 70 for the playlist asks 🥺

4 — nancy mulligan

i was blessed with a talisa & robb edit to nancy mulligan and i could not unsee the vibe. i love this song sm and it's exactly the kind of song robb would sing about taryn to their kids & grandkids

we got married wearing borrowed clothes

we got eight children now growing old

five sons and three daughters

tarynrobb's wedding (chapter 18!) will be really sweet because it's so last minute and unprepared, so taryn definitely might well borrow a dress from one of her ladies 🥺 i have vague ideas for tarynrobb to have four kids — what's four more!

she and i went on the run

don't care about religion

i'm gonna marry the woman i love

down by the wexford border

taryn always had big ideas for her wedding, but when she marries robb it's very simple and she wouldn't trade it for the world. taryn's follows the seven but robb carries the old gods. their wedding is done in the light of the seven, but taryn promises that they will get married again in front of a weirwood tree when they go home to winterfell 🥺

i never worried about the king and crown

'cause i found my heart upon the southern ground

there's no difference, i assure ya

robb loves her so much man 🥺

50 — would that i

top three hozier song for me 🥺 it's just so beautiful and perfect. robb stark would ADORE hozier, it's canon

with the roar of the fire, my heart rose to its feet

like the ashes of ash i saw rise in the heat

settle soft and as pure as snow

i fell in love with the fire long ago

robb describes taryn as the snow & sun because she's such a comfort to him. there's also something phoenix coded to me about this part too (shout out to celaena ainar — my rhaenyra oc — who robb descends from, since cel is cregan's mum!! and her family sigil is a phoenix 👀).

so in awe, there i stood as you licked off the grain

though i've handled the wood, i still worship the flame

long as amber of ember glows

how many times can i say robb is down bad for his girl

70 — sailor song

shout out to chapter 19 of lionheart (the wedding night). this song is basically an elegy to taryn's little dose of religious trauma (thank you to her septa)

i don't believe in god, but i believe that you're my savior

so here is a sneak peek for chapter 19 🫣

"As your husband—" Robb liked saying that. Part of him still couldn't believe Taryn was his wife. His wife. "—I have to make you feel good on your wedding night. Do you trust me?"

"Yes. But... Gods, I—"

"There are no gods here." Robb kissed her. "Only you and me."

i'm going insane just thinking about them damn.

i sleep so i can see you 'cause i hate to wait so long

and post-red wedding core whoops (i can't avoid the angst i'm sorry)

Forever And Always — Yumi x Reader

🔹 Fluff 🔹 Proposal Memories 🔹 F!Reader 🔹 Sweet Banter 🔹 Soft Yumi 🔹 Couple Goals 🔹 Request🦋

Yumi’s face lit up as he leaned closer to his stream setup, adjusting his mic. The chat was moving so fast he could barely keep up, a sea of congratulations, emojis, and endless questions flooding the screen. “Alright, alright!” he laughed, running a hand through his hair. “You guys are insane. But, yeah, it’s true. Y/N and I are engaged.” He held up his hand, revealing the matching silver band on his ring finger—a promise ring he had worn since the day he proposed. “Crazy, right?” The chat exploded again, filled with messages.

HOW DID YOU PROPOSE??

DETAILS, YUMI, WE NEED DETAILS!!

😭🥺 WE NEED THE LOVE STORY

Yumi smiled sheepishly, leaning back in his chair. “Man, y’all are nosy. But okay, I’ll give you the details because, honestly, I’m kinda proud of how I pulled it off.” He paused, glancing offscreen for a second. “So, Y/N had been hinting at wanting a proposal—not in a pushy way, but, like, subtle shit. You know, ‘Oh, this song would be perfect for a wedding,’ or ‘I love this kind of ring.’ Classic stuff.” The chat laughed along with him as he continued. “So, I decided to make it perfect. I planned everything for weeks. Took notes, made calls—man, it was like a full-time job. I wanted it to be somewhere meaningful, so I picked the spot where we had our first real date. There’s this little park with a lake, and at sunset, it’s just… unreal.” Yumi’s voice softened as he got into it, clearly reliving the moment. “I told Y/N we were going out for dinner, but I took a detour to the park. She was like, ‘What are we doing here?’ and I was trying so hard to play it cool. But then we got to the lake, and there was this little table set up with flowers and candles.” He paused for dramatic effect, grinning as the chat spammed heart emojis.

“She was totally caught off guard. I could see it in her face, but when I got down on one knee…” He rubbed the back of his neck, looking a little bashful. “And let me tell you, I don’t even remember what I said. It was some sappy shit about how she’s my best friend, my everything, all that. And then I asked her to marry me.” The chat erupted, and Yumi chuckled, reading some of the comments aloud. He laughed softly, his cheeks tinged with a light blush. “She cried. I cried. It was a mess. But she said yes, obviously.” He held up his hand again, showing off the ring. “And now we’re here. Planning a wedding and trying not to freak out about everything.”

SHOW US PICTURES!!

DID YOU TAKE ANY PICS???

WE NEED PROOF

PICS OR IT DIDN’T HAPPEN

Yumi rolled his eyes, pretending to groan. “You guys are so fuckin’ nosy—let me find it.” He grabbed his phone, scrolling through his camera roll as the chat teased him mercilessly. “Hold on, hold on,” he muttered, squinting at his screen. “Okay, here it is.” Without switching off his face cam, Yumi held up his phone to the camera, revealing a picture of him and you at the lake. The setting sun bathed you in warm light, and your smiles practically glowed. Chat went wild.

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL OMG

CRYING RN WTF

WHO TOOK THIS MASTERPIECE??

“That’s not even the best one,” Yumi smirked, scrolling again. “Wait till you see this.” He found the close-up of your hand, your engagement ring catching the golden light. “Boom. There it is. Look at that rock,” he said proudly. The chat spiraled further into chaos.

THAT RING IS GORGEOUS

Y/N WINNING AT LIFE

DAMN, YUMI REALLY DID THAT

Your voice came from offscreen, a playful lilt to it. “Are you showing them the pictures?” “Of course,” Yumi said with a grin. “They bullied me into it.” You appeared in the doorway, leaning against the frame. “Well, did you tell them how nervous you were?” “Hey!” Yumi laughed, pointing at you. “You’re supposed to hype me up, not roast me!” You laughed, walking over to kiss the top of his head. “You did great, babe. Best proposal ever.” Yumi’s cheeks turned a light pink as the chat spammed.

CUTE ASF

Y/N IS A QUEEN

YUMI IS WHIPPED

Shaking his head with a chuckle, Yumi turned back to the camera. “Alright, stream’s over for today. I’ve got a fiancée to hang out with. Catch you losers later.” And with that, he signed off, leaving chat buzzing with excitement and admiration.

[piracytheorist]

Episode 33 reaction!

*incoherent screaming*

WHY DID THEY MAKE THIS CUTE. WHY DOES IT WORK. I LOVE IT.

Yor talks about how they'll just put them in that inflatable boat and then go to the other ship, but would that really work with the amount of assassins on board? All they'd need to do would be fire with a sniper while the trio were boarding.

Anyway. Caught by the smell, after all. And indeed Yor doesn't seem to have a scent that super-smeller Turtleneck Guy can pick up. Interesting!

I love how Anya didn't even have to negotiate this. She wasn't even direct about it.

Also, it looks like Anya got a little more comfortable hearing a myriad of passionate thoughts around her? Like, remember episode three, where she passed out from the amount of thoughts around her. Here she didn't seem bothered at all and thought she could "look around" for Yor's thoughts. Is that a sign that she's getting stronger and gaining more control of her power?

I love how Yor saw the two guys standing by the hallway and went like "These are probably assassins" and they were indeed assassins.

Okay. This spread is hilarious, with all the different expressions side by side, and I'm glad I had the manga in a physical copy and could see it in all its glory XD

It was so sweet, how Olka tried to calm down Gram 🥺 the voice actress did such a great work there!

They actually fit three full chapters and one short chapter in one episode, and it still didn't feel rushed, what the hell! Like they took their time showing everything. This is amazing.

I love how Gram got excited over jumping around in Yor's arms XD

The sniper got an order to kill the baby too, if possible! The fuck!

Setting a fight between assassins - which includes a lot of shooting - amidst a firework show is brilliant. The plain guests had no idea what was happening just a few meters away from them.

AND YOR GOT HURT!

The difference between their reactions at the other dodging was hilarious. The sniper went like "She dodged that???!?!" and Yor was like "Aw shucks, he dodged it."

Then. Yor. Fucking. DESTROYED. A DAGGER WITH HER BARE FINGERNAILS. What the actual fuck! (I accidentally typo-ed "bear fingernails" there but was it actually incorrect? This woman is a beast!)

And Gram is still having fun! Fireworks? Time to cry. People trying to kill them? Laughing his heart out :D

My god! The assassins coming out, and Yor doing her tricks with her stilettos before preparing her stance? The animators really understand the assignment!

Some good quick action there, McMahon coming to their help and I THINK I MIGHT HAVE SCREAMED WHEN ZEB GOT HIT.

Like they were actually falling and I was like. Please tell me he wore a bulletproof vest. Please tell me he won't die. PLEASE DON'T DIE ;_;

So yeah. I was so relieved to see he had a vest. And it's also funny that they took a humorous tone with that. A bit of an emotional whiplash was expected there XD

There's so much good animation there I can't even begin to comment on it. I'll have to gif a lot tomorrow :D Probably :D

Anyway. THEY MESSED WITH THE WRONG BITCH

Glorious.

McMahon cleaning up! Both preparing to fuck shit up!

I love how Yor apologized for using a guy's dead body as a shield from bullets. Kindness over all!

And then Loid wondering why Anya is still so excited after a long show of fireworks. He would lose his mind as a modern parent whose child could listen to Baby Shark a million times in a row.

A literal bloodshow ensues! Yor killing guy after guy and McMahon cleaning up after her!

Meanwhile, Anya and Loid enjoy the fireworks, and the office dudes win a fortune. Wins all around!

Though shit! The mace guy broke one of Yor's stilettos! Sacrilege!

They didn't pull back. With the soft song accompanying the action, we then get a hilarious (!!) montage of Yor taking out the assassins one by one and HOW DO THEY DO THAT. How is the humor in this show so effective I DO NOT UNDERSTAND. Like, Endo's writing is funny in and of itself, but then the anime manages to pick up from that and use make it over the top! I love it.

Turtleneck guy thinks he's in the position to judge Yor??? Shut up my dude.

So McMahon is a pretty traditional dude, huh. Interesting. And did Turtleneck Guy really go like, "No, YOU will be eaten by sharks!" Like was that the best you could do XD

But then! Things get deeply serious! McMahon isn't dead, is he? O_O (don't answer)

Oh my god there's so much more I can barely comment! The katana guy being over the top! Yor worrying over breaking Loid and Anya's hearts! BECAUSE SHE'LL DIE. The haircut moment XD

But then Yor had her moment of wondering and then got her ass kicked and shit.

It is not clear in the anime, but it looks like in the manga Yor ripped the earring off her earlobe to stop Turtleneck Guy from moving on.

It's kind of tragic, how the Briar siblings ended up. Yor got into a dangerous, soul-eating job to protect Yuri's carefree life, and Yuri, seeing the sacrifices she made for him, did the same for her. They're so desperate to protect each other from the evils of the world, because they're all they have...

But now she's got even more of a motive...

So what if I cry? What if I dissolve into a puddle of tears and feels? So what? T_T

WHAT IF I LOSE MY MIND. BECAUSE HE DOES UNDERSTAND. IT'S THE VERY SAME THING HE DOES.

One last moment of logic that yes, she did rip her earlobe.

And now I continue screaming. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

[rosesradio]

See, I thought I'd just wait until you turned anon asks back on... then I realized I can't wait that long. (Ignore that it hasn't even been a day)

Here's me unmasking solely to agree with you that Jason railing Octavian would have fixed him 💙💙💙

–Jasico smut off-anon 💙🖤

i can't believe the jasico smut anon's finally been unmasked 🥺 i feel bad considering that i didn't leave anon off that long/i was just being a silly goose, but still. i'm glad you felt okay to unmask beloved mutual 💌

aaanyways, i did have some jason/octavian ideas i mused about over work i might as well talk about since you came all this way (to my inbox)

i'm sure there's a ship name for jason/octavian somewhere & i'm not the first to come up with jack shit, though for simplicity's sake i'll call/tag them javian

i can see a scenario in which jason & octavian are like childhood friends turned long-time political rivals. jason's been praetor for ages & pratically primed for the position since he could walk (i know richard gave jason more of a rags-to-riches 5th cohort story in canon but tbh...i don't buy that shit. bro's a nepo baby). octavian's jealous & corrupt & flirting with a decent into madness.

i think that the camp jupiter campers would be pretty sexually repressed (first chb's abhorrent sex ed, now this lol). maybe it's unintentional, these campers are fighting & dying & don't have the time or necessity to learn about sex, apparently. jason would probably come to a point where he regularly gets himself off, but octavian...wouldn't. he'd do it a couple times, the stats of which are shocking & worrying at best. he's got shit to do, right? augur here, praetor-to-be there—he has no time for that sort of thing...until he does.

the tension between jason & octavian could develop into a rivals-with-benefits situation. octavian was never one to practice battle, though he starts joining jason, challenging him. jason overpowers him easily, pinning wrists and hips under strong, large hands. he'd say something along the lines of "if i didn't know any better, i'd say you were enjoying this"

...and he is. a lot more than he should.

i think jason would enjoy tying octavian down, finally restraining him to do what he wants. octavian, surprisingly, would like it too. he constantly feels things spiraling out of control, so to have a space he's confined to, an act with the same steps and the same building pleasure, brings octavian a strange sense of comfort and relief.

jason would consider a ball gag to really shut up octavian's quips, though he loves the sound of octavian coming undone too much for that. as stated, octavian's super sexually repressed. although there's a certain amount of shame there, he's too far gone to feel self concious about how he moans and begs for jason. he is really sensitive, too, and it takes a bit of time to build up his stamina. jason's more than happy to help him get there, even if that means getting himself off in various ways during their first few hookups.

there's a few soft moments in their dynamic, though it's far from healthy and fluffy. at times, it's almost like another duty to fulfill, a practice that makes their lives easier. there's a professionalism to it.

at one point, when jason's got octavian laid down on the bed, his cock down his throat as octavian's hands are tied to jason's headboard (thank goodness for a praetor's private quarters...people are not at all getting suspicious about how many times octavian goes in there to "discuss matters of great importance to new rome", or whatever). octavian starts to roll his hips up towards jason on impulse, his thighs trembling.

& jason pins his hips firmly to the mattress, pulling off to give him a stern look. he tells him not to move, to stay absolutely still and take what jason's giving him "like a good boy". & part of octavian hates how demeaning it feels, though at the same time...his cock twitches, leaking a bit of precum. & he manages a "...yes, sir" that surprises even himself. he's not sure where that came from or why he's so turned on by it.

it's like it makes this obscene thing they're doing less obscene...or perhaps more so, breaking decorum in one of the only ways octavian will allow.

jason seems to like it, too, raising his brows before resuming with double the efforts. octavian writhes in his binds, longing to run his fingers through jason's hair. he pants and moans, fighting the urge to roll his hips as he calls him "sir" over and over again, like a prayer.

it doesn't take octavian long to come after that, and jason is sure to incorporate this new discovery from then on out.

[sevasey51]

I have been loving protective Connor so much! Both the overbearing surgeon husband and emotionally protective. During flares up how would Connor be at home and at work? Can you write this as a request please 🥺❤️

Built-In Shelter

Summary: Connor’s used to fighting battles in the OR—but nothing rattles him quite like watching his wife’s body betray her during a flare. Whether it’s the bone-deep fatigue of POTS, the sharp, unbearable pain of endo, or the unpredictable cascade of symptoms from her EDS, Connor shifts into full protective mode without hesitation. At home, he becomes her rock. At work, he never stops checking in. Some call it overbearing—he calls it showing up. And he’ll do it, every single time.

At Home: “The Fortress”

The moment he sees the signs, everything else falls away.

She moves a little slower. Her speech softens. Her color fades.

And Connor—surgical mask off, trauma surgeon instincts on—becomes a force of nature.

“Sit,” he’ll say, already pulling out the pulse ox and BP cuff from the drawer beside the couch. “Feet up. I’ve got it.”

No argument is needed. Not anymore. She knows he’s watching her vitals closer than she is. And while she hates feeling like a patient in her own home, Connor never makes her feel less.

Instead, he makes her feel safe.

He layers blankets around her like armor. Keeps her hydrated with a rotation of salty broths and electrolyte drinks. He lifts her legs, rubs the aching joints that throb from EDS, warms the heating pad for her endo pain, and places soft kisses just above her temple as he checks her pulse.

And if it’s a really bad flare?

Connor goes nowhere.

He cancels everything that isn’t surgery. Turns down dinner invites. Moves his laptop beside her so he can chart with one hand and stroke her arm with the other.

“Do you need meds yet?”

“I’m okay.”

He leans in, watching her closely. “That’s not what I asked.”

She groans, but it’s always followed by the gentlest surrender. He knows her thresholds. He knows her stubbornness. And he never lets her hurt longer than she has to.

He doesn’t hover. He anchors.

When she cries—because sometimes the pain just won’t back off—he holds her without flinching. He rubs slow circles into her back and whispers things she barely hears through the sobs.

“You’re not broken.”

“You’re still you.”

“I love you even when it’s hard. Especially then.”

And he means it.

At Work: “The Watchtower”

She works on the same floor more often than not. But when she’s not on shift, he’s still watching out.

He texts between cases.

• Hydrated?

• Pain level?

• Need me to run home between surgeries?

And when she is at work, and he catches even the smallest change in her gait or expression, it’s over.

He finds her in the staff lounge, presses two fingers to her wrist and silently checks her pulse.

“Connor,” she’ll whisper, half-exasperated, “you’re working.”

“I’m also your husband. Sit.”

There are whispers around the hospital.

“Isn’t he a little intense?”

“He’s such a helicopter.”

He doesn’t care. He’s long past the point of softening his care to make others comfortable.

If she needs Zofran? He walks it over himself.

If she needs to lie down mid-shift? He clears the on-call room before she even asks.

And if anyone questions her capability?

Connor shuts it down.

“She’s got a chronic illness, not a character flaw. Now back off.”

The Emotional Protection

But the most important part of how Connor protects her isn’t the medicine.

It’s the seeing.

It’s the way he notices when she’s about to spiral—when her eyes flicker toward fear, or shame, or guilt for being sick again.

He doesn’t let it fester.

“You’re allowed to be mad,” he’ll say, sitting beside her in silence.

“You’re allowed to feel like this is unfair.”

And when she whispers, “What if this never gets better?”

He answers without missing a beat:

“Then I’ll be here for all of it.”

Because Connor Rhodes is a trauma surgeon.

But when it comes to her?

He’s also the constant.

The shield.

The soft place to land.

And flare after flare, day after day, he proves that love isn’t about fixing her.

It’s about never leaving her to face it alone.

About the fanon Ishimondo thing you were talking about, I feel obligated to talk about it because I also HATE IT SO MUCH

I feel like there's a lot to unfold here about how problematic and mischaractezing fanon Ishimondo is, like Taka being kinda autistic coded and people infatilizing him to no end acting like he doesn't know about anything and how he is such an "innocent beam" sounds kinda ableist to me? That's the same guy that joked around Makoto about a dead corpse in his bathroom, told him AND Mondo to get naked, and also canonically called Monokuma a son of a bitch??? He is NOT innocent 😭 he probably only keeps that stuff to himself. Plus I also feel like Taka being treated as so feminine is so.... trying to make them fit into heteronormative roles, dammit Mondo and Taka are both MEN!! Just because Taka is like. centimeters (I don't know about inches and I refuse to learn it) smaller than Mondo people make him super feminine????? HELLO????

And about Mondo..... You're so real for saying that it takes away from Mondo's character, Mondo is like that character that you look and immediately assume things about him because he looks like the typical bravo man character, but only looking at him that way is wrong, because he is NOT like that, Mondo struggles so much with his self esteem, he is an anxious insecure mess and he hides that side from others using his anger and what he thinks would make him manlier. Looking at Mondo as just the strong man character is like failing to look at what he truly is, AND THAT'S WHY FANON ISHIMONDO GETS HIM SO WRONG!!! BECAUSE PEOPLE FAIL TO LOOK AT WHAT'S HIDDEN BEHIND HIS MANLY PERSONA. No one can look at me and say that the same man who got rejected 10 times because he shouts when he gets nervous is a fucking playboy who dates different people every single day. MONDO IS A LOSER, he definitely doesn't get bitches, that's a pathetic loser bottom and no one can convince me otherwise

In this household we hate fanon Ishimondo, we should actually gather everyone who thinks the same way and make our own content because I am TIRED

MOOT!! YOU ARE SO REAL FOR EVERYTHING YOU SAID

i can’t believe i didn’t touch on how it’s lowkey ableist to make taka (one of like 7 or 8 autistic coded characters in this god forsaken dogshit franchise) just an “uwu soft submissive baby 🥺” like HOLY FUCK this guy literally says to makoto “omg i’m so sorry your girlfriend died anyway RIP OFF YOUR CLOTHES AND SHOW ME YOUR C*CK SO WE CAN BOND LIKE MEN 💪💪💪” saying taka is just an innocent bean who doesn’t know anything about sex and needs his big strong boyfriend to teach him everything is just?? wRONG?? listen if taka is a model student and gets top grades in every subject that INCLUDES sex ed (please laugh i’m hilarious)

and mondo… his WHOLE STORY IS ABOUT HIM KEEPING UP A FALSE PERSONA OF BEING MACHO AND STRONG TO MASK HIS INSECURITIES BECAUSE OF HIS TRAUMA!!!!! mondo what did they DO TO YOU 😭😭 he is literally one of the most sopping wet cat pathetic characters in not just thh but the whole fucking franchise. an. and you’re making him the stupid playboy. not to rant about leon but it’s a similar problem with him where in a sense, if you make them just dumb playboys who just want to fuck bitches or whatever you’re. erasing their trauma. mondo��s self esteem is so awful, how are you gonna actually fucking say “well since he puts up a mask of being confident, he must actually be confident!” media literacy isn’t even dead you’ve cremated it doused it in gasoline and lit it on fire at this point. just making him yell occasionally because he’s nervous does not equal him being a genuine nervous wreck. like mondo buddy i get you and i think that’s why it makes me so so angry to see people literally make a brand new character so they can write their hot yaoi fanfic 😍🥰 i know this is a serious conversation with serious undertones about mischaracterization of two fan favourites but MONDO IS NOT A TOP!! HE IS A BOTTOM!! HE IS A PATHETIC LOSER BOTTOM WHO SHOULD BE GETTING FUCKED IN THE ASS!!!!!!!!!

and like i don’t wanna touch on what i put at the bottom of my huge rant but… cmon. i have such a huge problem with how taka is characterized especially as someone who’s. yeah. you can still write that but completely ignoring it just so you can write more hot yaoi sex is. come on. fuck off

moot you’re very correct i don’t trust anyone outside of like tumblr and a couple other people on other platforms with these two. fuck fanon ishimondo all my homies hate fanon ishimondo

smc sell me ice cream.... this is also a nice bookend to like how s1 opens with the shot of her running through the night city streets

i can't help but wonder if - since s3 was initially supposed to be 18 eps - this ED was made with the intention of there being one more after it? idk it felt a bit of an odd choice of scene, though ofc it was well done hehe

ok final season thoughts later maybe but yayy. finale...

[cl-babydew]

I completely forgot to tell y’all I started a new anime!!! I thought I did all this time! X,D Anyways, I just finished it today!! I watched A Condition Called Love!! It was a pretty cute anime!!! X3 It was kinda odd at times, tho Ik that was the whole point, two people figuring out what love is with each other!!

In all honesty tho, I related to both the characters in a sense, one being how I was similar to the main girl, Hotaru, in the sense of trying to understand what love felt like, while I have felt feelings before, I never understood the relationship stuff, let alone love itself, tho I had a desire to understand and want to experience for myself! My first relationship was kinda like a test of those waters, but I didn’t realize til after that it wasn’t true for my end, the whole time I thought something was just wrong with me? X,3 It took me til my current relationship to realize a lot! X,3 My current relationship, everything just got so much more colorful and a whole new field of feelings and emotions I never felt before were unlocked! It’s crazy what just one person can do! X3

Anyways, as for Hananoi, the main boy, I also understood loving too much, tho more so in a friendship way when it comes to my past, unlike him with relationships! X,D I understood having others leave you cuz they think you’re too weird, or just don’t care the same way! X,3 So I had a moment of secluding myself and not attempting at friendships like him, thankfully tho, my internet friends flipped that over in the best way! X3

So yeah, that was nice to watch a story on, it was quite interesting!!! And sweet too! While I found there were some red flags of Hananoi that left me like “Uhhh…idk if that’s a good thing, but okayyyy whatever you say, story” tho to be fair, he was reacting that way thx to the neglect he got from his parents! X,3 So can’t completely judge him there I guess!

Anyways, overall, cute anime, tho I’m not invested enough to read the manga! X3 So I’ll just wait for s2 if it ever gets one!!

OH ALSO! The dang op and ed are sooooo goodddd!! I keep jamming to em every time!! XD I love em!!!

Anyways, no fav character, but I will have my icon being the main 2!! X3 So here’s that of an official manga cover:

This cover is so soft!🥺

Anyways, break week! This’ll be a longer break week since I’ll be going on a trip to visit my best friend in a week or so, so yeah! See y’all next time! Love y’all! X3❤️

"Stretch" (2014) review

Aka ✨ why this movie is one of the most underrated ones I've ever seen and why it is some of Patrick Wilson's best work ✨

"If you like stories about chance and coincidence, here's one you've never heard" gives me the chills every time 😮‍💨

Patrick Wilson is one of the most underappreciated actors of his time, like, not only do his other projects demonstrate that he has drama, romance, instruments, and singing down ✨, but here he is finally given a chance to flaunt his impeccable comedic timing, vocalizations, and expressions

Idk maybe I just love movies with narration (ex., "Heathers," "Jerry Maguire," "Amelie," "Eloise at Christmastime," "Megamind," "American Made," "The Outsiders," etc.)

But jokes aside, I will defend Patrick Wilson's narration throughout the movie no matter whAT ANYONE SAYS YOU CAN PRY IT FROM MY COLD DEAD FINGIES; IT IS AT TURNS FUNNY AND RELATABLE AND PROFOUND AND WE GET TO KNOW THE MAIN CHARACTER BETTER 😤😤

It does start a bit slow, especially if you aren't as invested in Patrick Wilson as I am 🙃🫠 but if you stick with it and pay attention to the subtle comedic elements in the meantime 👌🏻

This movie is not afraid to be a bit irreverent, which is a modern and mainstream rarity

Stretch and Charlie are so cute together; I wish more of their interactions had been kept in the final cut because when I think of the quality content that we missed 😩💖

"Who gains weight in their neck?" "Sexy people." "Three months of Rosetta Stone- I HATE THE FUCKING FRENCH." "We was gettin' all romantic, watching Titan-tic..." and so, so many more

Honestly, Karl is an integral part of this film as well- he may seem overtly cartoonish to some, but again, we get to know the main character better through him, as his presence gives us a visual of Stretch's inner struggle; he contributes to the dark humor vibe, and Ed Helms was clearly having the time of his life (as was the entire cast)

Speaking of which, stellar casting all around, especially those who were cast against type; love when directors give that stuff a chance. Everyone was made for their role

Dark humor, satire of Hollywood, homage to 80s films

The Navstar scene. If you know you know

Same goes for the post-Candace club exit scene with the valet, the wannabe rapper, and the sex club exit scene (there's a man wearing only balloons. need I say more). I mean, the whole movie is basically the best part and I'm trying not to make this review me just naming every scene and going "yes. this is good" but these are some of the most standout parts

The soundtrack may be atrocious overall, but the exception is the song at the end (although I was disappointed when I read that it was originally supposed to be "Telephone Line" by ELO but they didn't have enough in the budget because that would have gone so hard) 😩💕

Speaking of the ending, why is it so incredibly pure and sweet to me that it would almost make me cry if I weren't medicated? 🥺 Something about the setting of the diner, exuding vintage charm and glowing in the sun the quiet morning after the previous night of chaos, and the serendipity of how Stretch and Charlie finally reveal how much they've obviously liked each other for a while, and after all of the danger and depravity, everything ends soft and gentle and alright 😊💖

This film is somehow so sleazy and wholesome at the same time- against the backdrop of drugs, sex clubs, threats of violence, and constant swearing, it's ultimately a story about overcoming cynicism and self-destruction, getting your "mojo" back, taking control of your life, and allowing for the possibility that things happen for a reason ✨ Honestly? 10/10

character asks: 13, 20, 21 for Archie

You know me so well, omg Archie my beloved

13. What's an emoji, an emoticon and/or any symbol that reminds you of this character or you think the character would use a lot?

I feel like the easy answer here is 🐍🐍🐍, but I think Archie also is an abuser of using the eggplant emoji. Just for anything that makes her giggle, she sends 🍆🍆🍆. Jim at one point goes "uhhhh, did you know what that typically means?" and Archie very cheerfully replies "yep!" Peak himbo dyke energy from my gal Archie

Oh, and also 💪

20. Which other character is the ideal best friend for this character, the amount of screentime they share doesn't matter?

OKAY FIRST, I JUST NEED TO TAKE A MOMENT TO GEEK OUT ABOUT HOW LIKE, EVERYONE LOVES ARCHIE?! THE SHEER AFFECTION FOR MY FAVORITE CROSSBOW SLINGING LESBIAN MAKES ME WANT TO CRY.

All this being said, I need---I NEED---Archie and Anne Bonny to meet and become immediate chaotic besties complete with friendship bracelets and matching arsonist kits.

21. If you're a fic writer and have written for this character, what's your favorite thing to do when you're writing for this character? What's something you don't like?

I haven't had a chance to REALLY write anything for her yet outside of a bit-character appearance in a few things, and I'm having fun playing with some different things with her. One thing I LOVE is that she's got a lot of the same emotional baggage we see with Ed, where she's grown up in a world that said "love and hope and soft things aren't for us" and she's chasing after it a little recklessly anyways. I don't know if there's something I don't like yet??? She's literally everything to me. Archie, my beloved 🥺

Send me a character, and I'll answer a question about them!

[meowzfordayz]

Hi T!! How are you doing? How's your week going? Did you eat? Are you drinking enough water? My friends brought home a kitten and I love it, it's so soft!

Here's a picture!

Have a nice week!! ILY

(⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠❤

Hii Aza !! ☺️ I’m doing alright: I work(ed) Tue-tmro, rock climbed, and spent time w/ friends this week. ☀️ Prob not hydrating enough, but eating decently — went out for Japanese bbq tn! 😋

OHMYGOSH TYTYTY FOR KITTY !!!!! 😭😭😭😻 Sooo fluffy and soft !!!!! 🥺🥺🥺😻

Sending you gentle moonlight on a tenderly rippling lake vibes !! 🌙💧

[noosayog]

noos!! i am coming here with soft, cold pillows and warm socks for the comfiest sleep ever!!! ☁️🧦 i hope you’re having the loveliest weekend so far 🥺

i am so curious (again!!! if this isn’t too private…🤭), between you and tobio who is the blanket hogger? who runs colder? warmer? 🥺 who tucks their cold feet underneath the other?

this is a very good question sel

we both run cold but tobio doesn't know he does so when i stick my cold toes under his pajama pants he hisses and complains about how cold my feet are without even realizing he does the same to me in the middle of the night.. hypocrite😐😐

he also denies hogging blankets but i'll wake up the next morning totally uncovered and him burrito-ed up in them and i'll smack him awake for it >:(

[sevasey51]

How would Connor be with his wife during her period? Would he be more more protective than usual considering her illnesses? Maybe her period is laso heavy? Would he try to convince her to talk to Dr.Asher to get on birth control?

Thanks babe 🥺 total TMI but I’m on my period and emotional AF

Cramping Her Style

Summary: Connor has always been attentive to his wife’s health, but when her period hits—bringing intense cramps, fatigue, and worsening her chronic symptoms—his protective instincts go into overdrive. As she battles through another exhausting cycle, he gently brings up the option of birth control with Dr. Asher, making it clear it’s her decision and that he’ll be right beside her, no matter what.

The heating pad was already plugged in and waiting on the couch when Y/N emerged from the bathroom, moving slowly, one arm wrapped protectively around her middle. She didn’t say anything—she didn’t have to. Connor could see it in the way her shoulders hunched forward and her eyes looked glazed with pain.

“Hey, come here,” he murmured, setting down the cup of tea he’d made and holding his arms open.

She collapsed into them like she’d been waiting for that invitation all morning.

It was the third day of her cycle—and the worst so far. Her period was always brutal. The kind of pain that left her breathless, the kind of bleeding that made her dizzy even with her TXA pills, and the kind of fatigue that made her chronic illnesses—her POTS, her EDS—flare harder. Every period was a war, and today, her body was losing.

He helped her to the couch, gently adjusting the heating pad and tucking a soft blanket around her.

“You take your meds yet?” he asked, brushing a few strands of hair from her face.

She nodded, eyes closed. “Threw up the first dose. Got the second one down an hour ago.”

Connor’s jaw tensed slightly. He hated this—seeing her like this, knowing there wasn’t much he could do to stop it.

“Babe…” he began, easing down next to her. “I’ve been thinking…”

She cracked one eye open, wary. “About?”

“About talking to Dr. Asher again. About birth control.”

She groaned softly. “We’ve been over this…”

“I know. And I’m not pressuring you—I swear I’m not. It’s your body, your call.” He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her in gently. “But every month it’s like this. You’re in pain, you’re exhausted, you’re already fighting so much—and the TXA helps, but it’s not enough. I just… I don’t like seeing you suffer when there might be something that could help.”

She was quiet for a moment. Then: “The last time I tried hormonal birth control, it made everything worse. The migraines, the nausea, the mood swings…”

“I remember.” He kissed her temple softly. “But there are new options now. And if there’s even one that could make things easier for you… I just think it’s worth having the conversation.”

“I hate that I even have to think about this,” she whispered, burying her face in his chest.

“I know, sweetheart,” he said, holding her tighter. “And I’ll support whatever you decide. If you want to try something new, I’ll be there at every appointment. If you don’t want to go down that road again, I’ll keep doing whatever I can to help you through this—every month.”

Her hand found his and squeezed it.

“You’re the best,” she whispered.

“I just love you,” he replied softly. “All of you. Even the parts you feel like you have to fight with.”

And as she drifted off into a pain-fogged nap, Connor stayed by her side—protective, patient, and quietly planning to call Dr. Asher for a consult slot, just in case she decided she was ready to have that conversation again.

Hey my love, I hope this brings some comfort and it eases up for you. Periods suck and always throw me off too so hopefully this helps a little. Sending you hugs 🫶🏻
