Halloween Bingo Card 2024: Scary Movies - Sam Carver x Reader

Tagging: @kmc1989 @mckinleysbones @wnbweasley @saturnsdevilz

Companion piece to:

The Evidence Locker - Sam realises his feelings for you might be reciprocated.

Scars - Sam thinks his emotional scars are too much for you.

Playing For Keeps - Sam regrets what he said about your first night together.

Big Heart - Sam takes care of you after noticing you're in pain.

Five Stars (NSFW) - Sam's realises his handyman skills do a little something for you.

You don’t realise horror movies aren’t Sam’s thing, not until the two of you are sitting on there in the dark watching Halloween in honour of the upcoming holiday. You’re tucked in against him on the couch, his arm wrapped around your shoulders, when you start to notice his muscles tense everytime Mike Myers appears on the screen.

At first you think it’s just a fluke but it gets worse and worse as the movie goes on until you pick up the remote and pause the stream.

“Sam…” You say softly because his eyes are closed and his jaw is clenched but it’s like he can’t hear you in that moment, he’s trapped inside his own head re-living whatever nightmare he endured at the hands of his brother.

You shift into his lap, your fingertips ghosting lightly over his cheek as your forehead comes to rest against his.

“Sam baby.”  You whisper and his eyes flicker open, his field of vision filled entirely by you. Your hand slips down to his heart and you can feel it beating wildly underneath your fingertips as you look into his eyes.

“What did he do to you?” You ask and he swallows hard, his gaze never flinching away from yours.

“You’ve seen the scars.” He says, his voice raw and you know he’s not talking about the burns up his left shoulder. He means the four slices just underneath his ribs, the ones that look like a hashtag. “He watched this movie, got a little inspiration. My parents went out to a party, thought we were trick or treating…”

He trails off then, his eyebrows furrowing into a frown.

“He wore the mask.” He tells you and you think in that moment your heart skips a beat because no child can be as fucking evil as Nathan Carver. “He wore the mask the whole time he was cutting me.”

 “Why didn’t you say something before the movie?” You ask him as his hand covers yours, keeping it clasped against his chest.  It helps sometimes, having you pressed against him like this. Already he can feel his panic starting to subside. “We didn’t have to watch it.

“It’s your tradition.” He says quietly. “I didn’t want to mess that up for you.”

This man, this bloody minded stubborn man. He would do anything for you, even if it is to his own detriment.

“Oh Sam.” You murmur, your nose bumping against his. “I don’t want it to be a tradition if it hurts you. Fuck Halloween, we’ll watch Rocky instead, or Casablanca or The Lego Movie if it makes you smile.”

“The Lego Movie.” He huffs a laugh, his fingertips tucking a strand of hair back behind your ear. “How do you always know how to make me smile?”

“Because I’m fucking awesome Sam.” You whisper, your lips brushing over his. “And so are you.”

Love Sam? Don’t miss any of his stories by joining the taglist here.

Big Scary Grandpa - part 5

“Little one!” panic building in his system from suden change, Megatron adjusted his grip, gently lulling you in between two of his servos, trying not to move little flesh form to much. One second you were alright, reactive, screaming and kicking, then the other second go completely limp. Light escaping opticks, he scanned small fleshy body for any injuries, letting an audible gasp of relief from his vents as it came up with nothing – no internal bleeding, no damadge to bones, no visible scaring or bruising, so why did you suddenly fainted - he had no idea, and it worried him a lot. Twirling small body in servos, he looked up, opticks focusing on small flickering light shining though the line of trees, a beacon of human civilization, some where you need to go, but if HE brings you to the camp, unconscious like you are now, it will surely spike some panic and will add even more bad reputation to his already dark picture. Gears shifting inside him, big bot let out his frustration in a huff, optick shifting rapidly, while trying to think as hard as he could, digits wrapping around small cushy body just a bit tighter, able to feel week pulse echoe though out...

Crickets orchestra echoed though the ranch as the huge moon shined gently upon the land. The cattle were in the barn, peacefully resting after day of grazing and watching kids get in to all sort of trouble, rolling in the mud and getting all the attention from them. Kids were sleeping as well, having a sort of sleep over in secret barn base, after having a late nigh fun, all knocked out and huddled together under blankets – Mo was nestled in arms of Nightshade, who was letting soft “who’s” as he recharged, resting on Jawbreaker, who was in his dyno form, laying on his stomach. Rob was wrapped in Thrash and Twists, who was curled around boy and Hashtag just sprawled in top of them, with data pad still in servo. Letting a soft chuckle, Dorothy Malto let out a happy sigh, observing their little happy family resting. Walking over, she fixed the blankets over them and left, turning lights off, walking out in cold air, taking in deep breath of fresh night air and walking in to her home. It was one of a few spare days when they had whole house to them self, mg that they can finally catch up on some alone time they wanted, and Alex already planned a few things as soon as he heard kids plan to have a sleepover in the barn. Opening the door, Dot can smell popcorn scent hanging in the air, along with some other scent and a loud pop of wine bottle being opened in the leaving room. Smiling, Dot took of her jacket she wore over her comfortable nightwear and walked in to the leaving room, with tv on and a  bowl of icecream on the table. One of a few days when they can dig in to secret stash of sweets without kids begging for their share, adding a little bit of amarula  and chocolate pudding. Plopping down on the sofa as Alex brought in two glasses of whine.

“I can safely assume kids are asleep?” he asked with a soft smile, leaning in to give his lovely wife a kiss on a head, plopping right by her and snuggling in, ready to enjoy their tv show. It might be a bit wrong to agree on, but it was really nice to have a break from the kids and their constant troublemaking attendances.

“Yep, they are finally asleep. And we have a home to us.” She smiled, scooping some cold treat on to the spoon “So, what episode we are on?”

“If I do remember correctly it was episode 10 session 3” picking up remote, Alex clicked a few buttons, setting it up to the right episode. The theme of the show played along and sweet couple settled in to watch their show... though it seemed like their peaceful time did not last for to long. Half way though the show a familiar sound of helicopter rung through the air. Letting a soft grunt out, Alex got up, helping his wife up, stopping their show and walked out, silently pondering as to what reason Megatron would be visiting them in such late hour. Walking out of the house, they braced them self as big bot descended on their lands in his alt form, moving incredibly slow. For a moment it reminded of the moment Dot saw him again after a long time, being dramatic and taking it slow. Yet, something deep inside her heart felt that something was wrong. Bot started transform, taking his sweet time to shift every peace of his metal in to right position, one by one, taking more humanoid form. He quickly reached for his chest and something visibly fell in to his palms. Kneeling down, Megatron froze for a moment, looking at Dot with a very familiar look.

“Megatron, what happened?” worry sipping in to her soul, Dot took a few carful steps forward, eyes narrowed on large servos, clearly cooped aorund something protectively, refusing to even pull away from his chest.

He knew well that it was late, he just really had no one else to go to in this situation. He still was not to sure that he wanted Prime to find out that he was secretly leaving base to see a human child, which will make this trouble even more problematic, so the only person he can think of going to is going to Dorothy, a very trusted person. Plus she was a human, so she will know what to do. Slowly lowering his hands, he glanced down at small body, that was still not responding to any thing: not when he transformed around them, not when he took them in to the air, not even now, just still, breathing and not awake. Once the body was at Dot’s eye sight level, her eyes grew wide with shock rushing over with a bit of a limp, focused on the child completely.

“I need your help Dot” he spoke with worry and care, letting human touch little archivist...

Stirring awake, you turned in your sleeping bag, letting out angry grumbles as you pulled covering over your head. For the first time in weeks you managed to find a soft spot in your sleeping sack, your body melting in to soft padding and hotel pillows, letting a sigh feeling soft fur of teddy bear, nuzzling in to it, letting out a wide yawn. You can hear birds chirping loudly with light annoyingly shining in to your eyes even though you had a blanket over your head. Though one noise confused you just for a moment, enough to forse you to open your eyes. You knew for sure that forest did not had any cows, so how come you can hear them. Still with blurry vision, spinny head and half asleep state, you set up, feeling your self almost loosing fight to blanket, looking around, trying to get out. It took some time but ass soon as your eyes adjusted you realised one thing after another: for once you were not in a sleeping bag in your tent, you were in some kids room, evident by all the toys, pink bedding and other things that clearly made it seem like a child’s room. Slowly getting out of the bed, you looked down, shame quickly heating up your cheek and you pulled the blanket over your self, panic now fully settling in. Adrenaline pumping through your blood, you lost control of your limbs and fell out of the bed with loud echoing thud. You are certain that this noise alerted someone as a set of footsteps echoed though the house, quickly approaching the room you were in. Being an “A+” student meant that you quickly learned how to differentiate footsteps and when thay are getting close, wrapping your self in blanket and shoving your self in to the corner, eyes wide and heart pounding like crazy in your chest, deafening you. The door slowly creaked open and a dark skinned woman poked her head in, making sure you were decent before walking in. You relax a bit at sight of green uniform of forest ranger, but still were on guard.

“Morning kiddo, you look better. That was a nice way of letting us know you were awake” she let a small chuckled, placing clean clothes on the bed you just fell out of, as yours were gone as you are sure that falling out of tower watch in to tree made it dirty, you just were creeped out that they were missing. “How are you filling?”

“I am okay” you nodded softly, panic calming down just a bit “Where am I? Who are you?”

“You are okay, you are at my range. My name is Dorothy Malto.” She did not move from the other side of the bed, giving you a bit of space and time to relax. You looked down at clothes and then up at woman “Your clothes were not.. in best of conditions. Do you feel any pain any where? Falling from such high place surely left some marks on your body.”

“I feel.. okay...” you nodded softly, patting your self to feel anything. So far you were okay and honesty only thanks to miracle and Megatron that you were unharmed .”How did?”

“How about I tell you every thing at breakfast. I am sure you are hungry”

“Yeah. Thanks” you nodded again and watched woman leave, giving you some privacy as you looked down at new clothes.....

Taking in deep breath, Megatron opticks flickered to life, unfolding his arms from his chest and looking around. He was in secret base of little ones, who were more then ecstatic that he suddenly showed up for the late night – any sleep disappearing with in seconds, assaulting him with questions and asking for stories. Of course he complied, intertaining the youth with all kind of fairy-tails he could remember, all while wondering just what will happen to you. Now he was awake, young ones were out of the base, propably already having fun with Bee or meeting you. He secretly hopped that they didn’t, wishing to introduce you him self to they young once, knowing how some of them can get quite excited. Getting up with grunt, he carefully walked out of the base, making sure to be carful with his big frame, squinting as sun shined brightly in to his opticks, lifting his servo to block some light. He can hear kids laughing, cows mooing and birds chirping. After a second, he was able to see and spotted a group of younglings huddled around in far out corner, hiding under the tree, with a new small figure in between them. Letign a sigh, his hopes of introducing Little Archivist dwindle, but not to much. Even from here he can see that you seemed to feel a bit better then you did in the camp though, clearly engaging with others without looking like you were forced in to socialising. Any time your camp would have some kind of activities, you always tried to hang out in the corner, out of sight, trying not to interact with kids. And even during free time you will avoid same age kids like fire. But now he sees you more relaxed, engaging with others, even if you are trapped under Soft Ears, letting your little hand slide up and down the fur. Taking a deep breath, Megatron strated walking forward, already seeing a chain reaction from young once, Twitch face lighting up with a big grin and flying towards him, circling his head and then nuzzling in to his side. She was really affectionate for a small bot, and he liked her too. Especialy her energetic enthusiasm.

“Good morning little one” he greeted them softly, joining them in the small circle, with Terrance happily greeting him back, with one more additional voice in the mix, he knows MO and Robby are in school by now, menaing  there were only terrance and a new guest “I see you met a new friend?”

“Yeas, we did, and they are quite nice” Nightshade smiled, his cyan optick not moving even a bit, but he can still can gues that kid was happy to meet another “egghead” as human would say. And he just let them on, with all the kids soon talking about what ever was on their mind, making him feel a bit more content that all the kids were in one place, almost but he knew Rob and Mo were safe at school. Though one of the younglings were not as safe as they were. Still worried about Y/N passing out suddenly in his servo AFTER falling of a watchtower, that even he can tell was to dangerous to climb, let alone when he slammed in to it, yet he is sure that speaking about it with them in privet will be the best, so he just waited pationly, knowing well that Bee will show up soon to whisk kids away for another training integrated with a play. It’s seemed to be the only way to get younglings to enjoy training in this day and age. And like a clock, Bee shows up and take young Terrace to train, leaving him and little archivist alone. Clearing his throat, Megatron looked down at the small young human, who was looking up at him with doe like eyes, coking their head just a bit.

“So, mind telling me what you were doing on that watch tower?” And he can see colour drain immideatly drain out of their little face, eyes growing wide and darting around, brain visibly struggling for answers. It was hilarious that they panicked so quickly at such simple question, making him let a snort out. “So?”

You shrunk in your self, mentally wishing that little cattle did not fell asleep on you, wishing that you can try to say something that you needed to do something, that you needed to get back to the camp, but alas, you were stuck. You can feel warmth drain out of your body and back heating up, quickly glancing down to avoid eye contact with Megatron, who clearly was giving you a parent glare, squinting a bit as you made a eye contact for a second. You really had no idea what to tell him – first of all you already had enough of your parents dealing with your bullies, even if it did not help much thanks to school politicks and all, you really did not wanted to drag Megatron in to it, second of all if he will get involved you are sure that your bullying will get worse. Just talking to him made it bad, what will happen if he will show up for a “talk”. Sucking in breath, you scrambled in your head for an explanation that will save you and HIM a hustle: well first of all you are a teenager, right, and they are infamous for getting in trouble, so maybe if you pretend that you were “acting out” you can make him believe that you were just exploring something abandoned, and second of all it was not much of a lie. You always wanted to see and visit an abandoned building, so you decided to go with this. Yet one more glance at bot quickly made you rethink your life choices – the squint seemed to glow, red light digging in to your soul, you immideatly averted your gaze, pressing you lips in to thin line and pressing your head in to your shoulders, able to feel heat spreading through your back. Yep, no, you are not lying to big bot who’s hands can easily wrap around you. You hated to admit it, but that night, when he “kidnapped you”, it did leave some mental scars, giving you nightmares time to time and just how weak you are compared to cybertronian. An uncontrollable chill ran up your spine, you gave up on lie, gently stroking little cattle, who finally seemed to have enough of you, or he heard his mom calling him. You almost cried a bit as little comforting cattle got up, the warmth of living being leaving your lap and slowly trotting away to where ever they wished, leaving you alone with Megatron. He seemd to immideatly notise your discomfort, reaching for you and scooping up to hold up to his face, as you are sure that constantly looking down must hurt his neck. You tried not to move to much in his servo, to scared right now, like a child terrified of a parent who knows that their kid did something wrong.

“Well?” Megatron asked again, tilting his head to side, digits flexing behind small humans back “why were you up there, in the middle of the night?”

“I... I was asked to bring something from there” you replied with notes of shame, now truly seeing how ridiculous it was to risk your life for a toy, yet you had your reasons and maybe they were a bit childish. “I could not say no”

“And for what reason you could not say no? What would be the reason to put your fragile life in to danger?” his tone was calm yet you still can feel notes of anger and disappointment echoing though his voice. “If I were not there, you would’ve been badly hurt, for pits, I don’t even wish to think if you would even make it out a life” you shivered a bit as bot raised his voice, just a bit, not to much to get attention of other robots, but enough to make you shiver. Yep, you are hundred present in trouble now, folding in to your self, you looked away, not able to look in to his red optick, not because they were scary, but because you felt ashamed. “Well, why were you up there?”

“I.. I was forced to do it” you answered with a bit of shame, regretting that you are admitting your weakness, yet it also felt good. You did grew tiered of running to your parents for help, even if it what you supposed to do “I could not say not to it.... they had my Teddy bear”

“Teddy bear? Seriously?” Megatron stifled a chuckle as he coked an eyebrow at little life in his hand. They risked their being for a toy... such a childish act, but honestly, sort of adorable as they were still young and naive. “For a teddy bear?” a smile escaped him and he quickly looked away. This is not a laughing matter.

“Teddy was gift from my grandma! I couldn’t let Dupeng do anything to him!” you bursted out, able to see that Megatron is not taking it seriouse as much as he tries, slowly cracked in to quite chuckle “It’s not funny!”

Despite the disappointment and anger, seeing you get so riled up relay broke him, Megatron cracking in to laughter, shaking with chuckle. You had to grip on to his servo, clinging to life and not really wanting to fall again, even if from small height, still you had enough of falling for one day. When he managed to calm down, he jus let a heavy sigh and patted you on your head. Alright, this was a really stupid decision on your side that you went to such length just to keep a toy in good shape, a childish like behaviour for a young being.

“It’s not funny” you pouted, clinging to metal fingers wrapped around, really wanting to be back on ground. “It was a last gift from my grandma... and I can’t sleep without it” you confessed with red cheeks.

“You risked your life for a toy, little archivist. This is funny” Megatron chuckled, pocking their cheeks with his big digit, feeling soft flesh give in under him “Well at least you were lucky I was there.”

And safe. After a quick scolding, he let you down and join Terrance when they had a break, able to feel his spark relax and now seeing his little collection of kids safe and all gathered in one place. Maybe he can even somehow put you in to the same school as Rob and Mo, just to be more safe. And he is sure it will be easy as any parent will be happy to switch school if their kid went missing on one of the school trips.

[vicekings]

hello everyone. Come let us play video games together. I tried to get a good mix of big and small devs + different types of games I’ve been enjoying recently. These will not be deep cuts for your average hashtag gamer but it’s stuff I like so 🤷‍♂️

Arachnophobia warning for the bonus game recommendation (webbed)

1. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

With the Witcher 4 trailer dropping awhile back, it made me revisit the Witcher 3. And goddamn is this still so much fun. Story’s fun, characters are fantastic, both major DLCs add a ton of fun extra content.

- the fashion in this game is off the shits. If you’ve ever explored armor mods in Skyrim, you’ll probably recognize a lot of this game’s outfits and armors. Geralt is your beautiful buff Barbie doll and you can dress him up very pretty and cut his hair and beard.

- If you’re a fan of old man yaoi you’ll love Geralt and Regis in the Blood and Wine DLC

- If you like card battlers you’ll love the Gwent minigame. if you don’t like card battlers you can avoid Gwent but honestly it’s worth getting into regardless because the Gwent stuff in this game is surprisingly addictive

- Literally all of the music in the Witcher 3 slaps hard as fuck

- The next gen 4.0 update adds some great quality of life features like fast casting for signs, auto-applications of blade oils, and improved combat controls

- modding community is big and there’s a lot of fun stuff to play with, there’s official an official modding toolset (Witcher REDkit)

- Geralt is genuinely one of my favorite characters from anything ever. This game rec is definitely affected by recency bias bc I just finished my replay of the main story and both DLCs but like I can’t state enough how much love I have for this game

2. Buckshot Roulette

It’s Russian Roulette with a shotgun.

- You can play against the handsome gentleman depicted above called the Dealer, or in a multiplayer lobby with your friends.

- It’s full of pumping euro tech club music set to scary mode.

- If you shoot yourself in the face you will be resuscitated with a wild ass defibrillator.

- You can shotgun a beer.

It’s surprisingly relaxing when you get into the flow of it. It’s like 4$ even when it’s not on sale. Well worth the couple bucks you spend. Also you can get it in a bundle with Inscryption.

3. PowerWash Simulator

Speaking of surprisingly relaxing, powerwash sim is the king of games for when I just wanna chill. The controls are super satisfying, you can unlock super useful upgrades, there’s a batshit insane background story told through text messages, really good game to play while listening to podcasts or catching up on an audiobook.

- You can play alone or with friends.

- There’s a bunch of fun dlcs that add more stuff for you to wash. There’s a Shrek dlc. There’s a SpongeBob dlc.

- You can use the power washer to draw penises.

- you can put it down and pick it up again at any point so it’s great for when you’re going insane at like 1am and need something to do with your hands without getting too overstimulated.

4. Chicken Police - Paint It Red

As mentioned in the screenshot above, Chicken Police is a noir detective visual novel. The aesthetic can best be described as “photorealistic anthropomorphic Sin City.” Genuinely such a uniquely styled game that is a lot of fun to immerse yourself in. I won’t say too much because I don’t want to give away the story, but if you like detective media then you’ll like this.

5. Vampyr

From the developers of Life is Strange, Vampyr is a game about eating rats.

It’s also about being a newly-turned vampire in post-World War 1 London, trying to balance being a good doctor with handling your new dark lust for blood.

For me, that meant eating a lot of rats. For you, that might mean eating a lot of people. Up to you. Vampyr is a game about choices and consequences of those choices. A lot of people shit on it when it first came out, but I love it and I love the story, and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes a good battle of man vs self story.

Bonus: Webbed

Webbed is a cute pixel art 2D platformer where you play as an adorable little jumping spider rescuing your peacock spider boyfriend after a fuckass crow kidnaps him. you can shoot lasers. The first ever input you’re taught to do is press Q to dance. Watch the trailer it’s so fucking cute man

[tobiasdrake]

To be fair having Chocomon and “Gummymon” referred to as Kokomon and Terriermon does make a little bit of sense since in both the original and the dub Digimon usually announce their name as they Digivolve (“Gummymon Shinka… Terriermon” or “Gummymon digivolve toooo… Terriermon”). 

So since Gummymon/Terriermon would have still been around Willis when he Digivolved, but Kokomon wasn't, it makes sense that Willis would know what Terriermon’s current name is but not Kokomon.

Although even in the original version it does seem weird that Wallace (Willis) would refer to his partners by their Baby II/In-Training names (Gummymon and Chocomon/Kokomon), since they hatched from an Digi-Egg that he got, if he somehow wouldn’t have heard the names during their digivolving sequence or even knew that his partners’ names changed at all or is in denial of it, wouldn’t he refer to them by their Baby/Fresh names (Zerimon and Cocomon)? 

Although Digimon: The Movie having “Kokomon” be called that, but never clarifying that that’s the character’s In-Training and not the Digimon’s current name, made weirder in that they gave his attack the name “Koko Crusher” which doesn’t make sense it the character’s name isn’t actually Kokomon, isn’t exactly good for brand name recognition since kids aren’t going to get that.

I know I didn’t as a kid for a year or two, ‘til I bought a Digimon Tamers toy that came with those sheets from Bandai that included images of all the current Digimon card art that numbered them Pokemon style, where I found out Kokomon was the character’s In-Training form and that the Champion form was Endigomon.

Also as I’ve seen one youtuber whose look at the movie has commented, having the character be referred to as Kokomon is kinda awkward when his facial design with the dark skin and big pink lips kinda looks a little like black-face/minstrel design - not to like Jynx level - but still…

I think it pertains to the difference in what Kokomon represents. The movie dramatically altered the very concept of what Kokomon is and what his relationship to Willis is.

In the original pair of OVAs, Wallace using the name Gummymon is an informative choice. Wallace is struggling to move on from the past.

The original OVAs get described as an "acid trip" sometimes and that's because it's one of those movies that is more symbolic than literal. A lot of what happens in the film has no literal meaning, no in-universe explanation for why this is the way this works. Characters have abilities and can do things that are never explained, because it's not the literal substance of their reality that drives the plot; It's the thematic meaning behind their actions.

So the movie has things like the Wendimon that Wallace knows as Chocomon suddenly appearing and haunting him because it's... it's the manifestation of his grief and his loss and his inability to move on from what happened that day, literally haunting him as a big scary wendigo monster.

One of my mutuals often uses the hashtag "grief is an ambush predator" which is a fire line. The Wendimon in this movie is that ambush predator.

And he calls them both Chocomon and Gummymon even though one is gone and the other isn't that Digimon anymore because he, Wallace, is unable to move on from that day. Unable to accept that time has passed and things have changed. He physically went to New York but he's stuck in Summer Memory, in the Town of Nostalgia. A prisoner of the cage his grief has built for him.

The movie dub basically stripped out all of the thematic subtext and meaning behind Wallace, and wrote more of an action piece. Willis made a very bad mistake and created a monster, and now that monster hunts him relentlessly and kills anyone he gets too close to. Willis and Kokomon are basically Wolverine and Sabertooth.

They don't really have a reason to use Gummymon's name for Terriermon over there. But... it's still weird that they stick with Kokomon. Did they just... not know what Wendimon/Endigomon's name was?

Jamie's Halloween Challenge 2023

It's almost time for Halloween and no one throws a Halloween party like Tony Stark. No expense is spared and anyone who is anyone makes an appearance at the Avengers compound for the event. Tony also loves surprises, and he has plenty for the guests at this year’s event.

You (or your OC) is there as an invited guest or maybe you work for Stark Industries. Your choice. Your challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to write a sizzling Halloween story. It can be dark, scary, or just really sexy, but the goal is a smutty good Halloween read.

CHARACTERS: Reader insert or OC (your choice) x any of the established Avengers, their foes, or other important characters in the MCU. You can also select a character played by an MCU actor (i.e. Bucky Barnes or Nick Fowler, Charles Blackwood, etc.) Multiple partners are allowed. LGBTQ+ stories are welcome here.

PROMPTS: You must pick one and submit it with your character choices.

The Mysterious Neighbor: Your neighbor's house always seemed normal until Halloween night. You notice something strange and decide to investigate.

A Night in the Haunted House: I don’t know why you’re there when you’re supposed to be at the party. You tell me.

The Unusual Pumpkin Patch: One pumpkin in the local patch grows faster and looks different from the others. You take it home.

The Halloween Costume Comes to Life: Remember that episode of Buffy? You rented a costume and when you put it on, that’s who you are as long as you are wearing it.

Halloween Candy: Tony only buys the good stuff when it comes to Halloween candy. But be careful. There’s a reason there are no kids at this party. Some of the candies are a pretty potent aphrodisiac.

The Unexpected Visitor: On Halloween night, an unexpected visitor knocks at your door. It's not a trick-or-treater but something else.

The Disappearing Act: A drink at Tony’s party turns you (or your significant other) invisible for Halloween night. What do you do?

7 Minutes in… Where?: You know the game. Only when you and your significant other are locked in the closet for 7 minutes, you’re transported somewhere else.

The Frightening Feast: Tony has quite a spread at the party. Be careful. Each dish has magical properties.

The Portal in the Pumpkin: You carve one of the pumpkins Tony ordered, but this one turns out to be a portal to somewhere else...

RULES:

You must be 18 to write for this challenge and it must be legal to participate where you are.

While a smutty good story is the goal, no incest, underage characters, bestiality, or toilet kinks.

Dark stories are welcome. Bonus points if they’re scary.

Stories can be reader insert (preferable) but can be OC.

At some point in the story, your characters must attend Tony’s party, be planning to go to the party, or just come from the party. Bonus points if Tony makes an appearance, even if it’s brief.

You must send me an ask with your characters of choice and the prompt of your choice. `(Example: Steve Rogers x Reader and Halloween Candy)

Minimum word count is 1k words. The max length is up to you.

Alright: Arkhamverse Scarecrow! Whaddya think 'bout him?

(Both Asylum and Knight, since he doesn't show up in City and Origins and Shadow is before he became Scarecrow, so no actual costume yet)

oh em gee its time .... its time for my hashtag Scarecrow Hot Take. i worry this one shall be divisive so i apologize in advance knight truthers </3

if i am perfectly super honest. i MUCH prefer jonathan in asylum than knight. ive already said before that i like when Scarecrow designs have Scarecrow elements, and while asylum jon admittedly doesnt have many, he at least has more than knight. he also has Actual Color! im aware that the arkhamverse style has always been kind of dark and gritty (as soon as u appear in arkhamverse u become allergic to baths) , but the later designs especially became way more mellow color wise and i dont find designs of just grays and blacks very interestign, ESPECIALLY when in the context of these beign comic book characters . the fear toxin provides nice pops of colors but idk, i would prefer a nice brown the way asylum has - even though his clothes are just brown, they still have color ! i also love how asylum lets us see how thin and gangly he is, i LOVE his proportions, while knight just kind of looks like a regular guy body type wise. not to mention i like asylums voice WAY better , i will take more high pitched scarecrow over lower gravelly scarecrow any day, i think its more unique and also suits him better because under the costume hes just a nerd u know overall, i know a lot of people love knights design, but i am asylum all the way. the one thign i will say i prefer would probably be knights face - i dont like asylums mask all too much - but everythign else i like way more and i think its kind of a shame that they shifted jon over to beign more "traditionally" scary for the game he had a bigger focus in. i dont hate knights design at all ! (there are some scarecrows i REALLY dislike and he is most certainly not one of them) but in a competition between the two , for me it is not close </3

The Ink Demonth 2023 - Day 31. Revival

Day 31. Revival Crossover: Bendy and the Dark Revival I'd say, Bendy, you can't be that rude... but I feel exactly the same way. I know it's not BATDR Bendy's fault that he is the way he is - but that doesn't change the fact that this is how I feel. So, if anyone else wants to ask me what I think about Ink Bendy from BATDR - I will refer to this image.

Yes, I consider it a crossover because I don't consider BATDR to be a sequel to BATIM in any way. It's a completely separate creation that is simply heavily inspired by BATIM. However, in places he rewrites the stories, changes the characters' personalities, adds new threads... This is not an expansion of the world. This is an alternative version of the Workshop - and you won't convince me to think otherwise. So a separate game with which I did a crossover called "Bendy doesn't like his alter-ego".

Actually, the only thing I like about Ink Bendy from BATDR is his voice. When I heard it first time, I felt a shiver down my neck... and then, unfortunately, I focused to the words - and all the charm was disappeared. Seriously. There are reasons why Bendy has been mute so far - and apparently the main one is how much he talks f**cking nonsense. I don't like the shape of his head. His hideous teeth, which are not scary - are disgusting. Hoofs instead of feet is a nice idea - but why both legs? Where is the wonderful asymmetry of the original? Why does he turn into a hedgehog (those spines in strange places - they make sense when they are spine vertebrae). No. Absolutely no. And what's with the skeleton arm? Someone used acid on his ink there?

As for the game itself... Uh... I was impressed at first. First chapter - great. New possibilities of moving the character, beautiful backgrounds, delightful details, an interesting ritual of starting the machine... I was delighted. My slight discouragement began when I first heard Wilson's voice over the speakers and the subsequent behavior of the Lost Ones afther that proclamation... In the second chapter, the game started to piss me off on a regular basis. Then I just watched gameplays and... I don't regret that I didn't keep playing. The game is frustrating, the characters are warped (but not in the realities of the game as they should be warped - warped from the ones we knew and liked). A lot of stupid things happen: Tom being treated like a pet, Wilson acting like a villain from the start, Allison being a fucking deus ex machina, Twisted Alice's death scene and Sammy's death - I hate them both, no physical Bendy (appears out of nowhere and instantly kills - a very lazy solution, game creators), Henry's whole entrance, that weird puppet character what's-her-name Betty... Ok, I like Porter's character a bit - but that's probably only because of his resemblance to my OC Brody.

So you've asked many times what my opinion of Dark Revival is. That's it: I hate this game. It killed my passion for creating SATIM and made me stop looking for images with BATIM on tumblr or on dA - 'cause people don't know how to hashtag and they tag BATIM when they make arts about BATDR. Okay, I'm not saying I have nothing but hatred for this game - but it disappointed me just in the way like BATDR Bendy is disappointment for SATIM Bendy in the picture. And it pisses me off when I see on dA that people add my art to folders called "Dark Survival", "BATDR art" or so. It's like a slap in my face.

That's why I made this picture as quickly as possible. An unspectacular finale - but I've been waiting to say this openly for a very long time, so appreciate the solemnity of this art.

And finally, something positive: I FINISHED ON TIME! Yeah, I did it again!

so the funky magic royalty AU is based on a dream I had, and it’s even more convoluted than Sunfall and Deimos’ Understudy; both of which were also based on dreams.

It’s got JMV, DINTIS, DS, and F!JMV/F!DINTIS. Mainly just F!JMV Mercury (grouchy old Arsenic my beloved <33), but that implies the existence of everyone else. And I can’t deny onyx his husband so F!DINTIS is there too. Probably. There’s also OGMV in the corner. But that isn’t why it’s convoluted.

It’s, as I said, a royalty AU. There’s also a funky magic system (hence the name) with six base elements, which can combine into secondary and tertiary magics, but if you combine all six at once you get lightning. which is so powerful no mortal can channel it, because they are immediately vaporized. But that doesn’t make it convoluted either.

There are three main kingdoms (excluding OGMV). But one of them is very new; in fact, by the present it’s only ~5 years old. They’re still the most magically and technologically advanced kingdom in the known world and here I have to admit I’d been watching Arcane when this thing came about, so it’s a lot steampunk-y magitek/hextech stuff

This still isn’t why it’s convoluted.

It’s convoluted because of who the fuck is in charge, and where other characters came from and currently live.

Jet and Obsidian are kings of Aphotia; a kingdom which views all other elements of magic as inferior to that of darkness, and claims the god of darkness as their patron deity.

Dream is king and Jade is prince of Luminance; a kingdom which, by virtue of its own views on magic, directly opposes Aphotia; light magic is superior, and darkness is evil. Jade originally came from Aphotia and is the only reason that using tenebris isn’t completely illegal and punishable by death. He’s the voice of reason. Pats his head.

Dark is king and Nightmare’s prince of Stateras, which by virtue of being five years old is mostly neutral to all other feuds between kingdoms. They firmly hold the belief that all the elements are equal; no one is inherently evil or better than any other. As a result, they have accomplished some crazy magical feats, and already have several kingdoms clamoring for some of their sick technology. Dark came from Aphotia and Nightmare came from Luminance.

btw Stateras is now on a floating island due to an accident with wind magic. it’s fine dwbi

Koroit and Zuli came from Luminance.

Finch came from Aphotia. Ink sorta did too but mainly she was kidnapped and that’s where her knockoff winter solider arc happened.

Lots of named characters have run off to Stateras, including Silver who’s praying Paraiba can make it before shit hits the fan.

Oh there’s also a side timeline where Obsidian and Jet overthrew the former Queen of Aphotia, who was batshit insane and is now even worse because she’s pissed at them. And she’s trying to figure out how to harness lightning. Which should kill her. But it won’t because she’s Hashtag Girlboss (also the creators are gay)

(Seriously though, we don’t have a valid excuse as to why she hasn’t been killed for her hubris. Her name is Virion and she’s actually a version of Obsidian, but she got genderbent here. Because pretty scary unhinged evil ladies >>>>> everything else)

In other news Nightmare’s new princely duties involve playing around with magic for science and his team is working on a huge mech suit they can pilot around and, maybe, channel lightning with by all of them channeling their own magics through it. No one is more excited about this than Bobby. And yes, she is on the team. She’s not allowed to help with some things because she’s fifteen and Nightmare thinks Randy would kill him anyway if something happened to her, but she’s very resourceful and is so thrilled to be learning so much about magic from the guy who invented fucking airplanes (presently only used in an offensive capacity because Nightmare’s too much of an airship nerd)

Nightmare and his team are presently the foremost experts on combo magics. Nightmare is also a pioneer in ’mixing opposing primary magics without killing everyone in the room including himself’. So far it’s just been light and dark magic but they’re working on applications for more such combinations

I have two (2) tables dedicated to the combo magics and I’m fighting with myself to not try in fill in all the tertiary magic because dear fucking god. Also more fun and story accurate if I leave it open. The secondary one is almost certainly going to have to filled out tho

I also have just (yesterday) named the OGMV’s kingdom as well as the H!DS queendom

Because I’m very creative, the H!DS queendom is called Phrikeh, after a Greek goddess of the same name (without the last h)

The OGMV’s kingdom is Cormeum. It’s a mashup of Latin words. Anyone who figures it out gets a virtual high five and also gets to ask me how late it was when I came up with it

I think that’s all I can say without giving away all the secrets before I can make the others from Phrikeh

Aside from sharing the magic charts but we ain’t got time for that my break’s over

[dreamsclocks]

what's the play about?

THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS WORRIED NOBODY WOULD ASK THIS AND I’D BE STUCK TRYING TO EXPLAIN FROM OTHER ANGLES. anon muah

so essentially we had a theme to work to and the theme was ‘sin’, so ME, being mr. hashtag unoriginal, decided to make it about the seven deadly sins. they’re stuck in a purgatorial room beyond time and space until the seventh sin (sloth) shows up to allow them to start the apocalypse.

it’s only a 20 minute play, but i’m debating making it longer or into a short novel because the characters are so compelling to me 😭

each character is absolutely AWFUL and the people i’ve seen audition for it have embodied that so well it’s so funny .. it’s a comedy but kind of a dark comedy considering the fact that they’re. uhm. the seven deadly sins.

(lust, wrath, sloth, pride, greed, envy, gluttony)

it’s been so much fun to write & is the first time i’ve shared my writing with people irl so it’s been so scary but so rewarding :]

THANK U ANON FOR LETTING ME YAP. IF NO ONE ELSE SENDS ASKS IM GONNA END RB-ING THIS AND YAPPING ANYWAY. BEWARE
