hbo war secret santa

hi @dylaneon !! i’m happy to finally reveal your (first) oneshot for the exchange :) happy holidays and i hope this is what you were wanting!! there may be more to come ✨ it’s technically christmas day in my time zone, so i hope this brightens yours (if you celebrate) :)

wc: 2014

red noses

It’s the third mother with a sick child she’s seen this shift. Gail’s taking the vitals of a little boy in blue wintery pajamas. He’s practically falling asleep on her and she can’t blame him with a fever of 101 degrees. The sloth of the evening is taking its toll on Gail, too; she found herself feeling more tired than she would during a busy shift.

The mother’s rambling on about holiday plans, stopping here and there to text the boy’s other parent updates. After a longer pause than usual, Gail looks over at her. She has a stricken look on her face.

“Oh my god, I just realized. You poor thing. I hope you’re not missing out on too much tonight.”

Gail smiles reassuringly at her. “Oh, no, ma’am. My cat and I will have Christmas when I get home. My mom and I had dinner last night, too. And of course the holiday pay doesn’t hurt.”

It’s an easy excuse to most people. They don’t know her mother.

It’s the same routine with most of the patients, get about halfway through her tasks, answer an invasive non-question, reassure them, finish up mostly in awkward silences and then go back to the nurses’ station. The ER is unseasonably slow, but it is her first Christmas working in Nowhere, Wisconsin. After 9 p.m., things taper off completely and she starts reading one of the waiting room People magazines absentmindedly.

A few minutes later the metal push-door slams closed loudly. It startles her out of a mind-numbing article about Austin Butler’s dating life. It must be a truly off night for Gail because the first thing she notices is how gorgeous the woman who just walked in is. The second thing she notices is the blood gushing from her nose onto a green cloth napkin. Altogether, the scene is somewhat festive.

The woman unceremoniously deposits her arms on the desk. Gail doesn’t cringe at the bloody cloth being closer to her own face.

“Hey, doll,” She grins across the counter. Her smile is no less charming for the blood in between her teeth. “I don’t really know what you guys do for a bloody nose, but my ma dropped me off. It’ll be a nightmare to get an Uber here in this ice, so you can look it over, or I can watch TikTok in the corner ‘til one a’ my brothers can pick me up.” Gail can’t tell if the girl is really from New York (New Jersey, maybe?) through the painful-sounding nasal tone to her voice.

Gail jumps up from her spot behind the desk and motions to one of the open cots.

“Have a seat and I can get you a clipboard to fill out.” She smiles reassuringly. There’s no teeth obviously missing or anything broken. Maybe it was a disastrous attempt at a pie-smashing.

“Sorry, my voice is weird right now. I’m not seeing a doctor.” She’s still smiling but there’s a protective edge to her voice.

“No, you’ll probably see a nurse to start.”

Her smile wavers.

“I was just being polite.”

“It’s policy.” Gail responds with her best customer service brightness.

She takes the clipboard with a blood-stained hand.

“Thanks, doll.”

It sounds less sleazy than it does from the old men who come in here, even with the sharpness in her tone.

A few minutes later she brings the clipboard back to the desk.

“Here’s your clipboard.” She’s a bit more sunny again. “This is probably out of network.”

“We have someone on staff who can help you with the claim. You can see them right after we’re done here, or you can come back in when the holidays are over.”

“I sure as shit ain’t coming back. Not for that, anyway.”

That isn’t… This woman bears a disturbing resemblance in attitude to so many of the men that come in here with sick kids, injured wives and somehow still have the bandwidth to hit on her. Sometimes it’s disheartening how much horniness prevails even in the face of what’s close to the worst thing to happen on a holiday.

“I’ll be right with you.” She motions back to the cot and the woman goes.

Gail scans the forms quickly, taking note of the important details. Gail makes a face at Bennie as she stashes the paperwork in the filing drawer. Bennie shrugs and goes back to her typing.

She makes her way over to the occupied cot and drags a vitals cart with her.

“Jane Egan?”

She was shielding her eyes now. That could be a bad sign.

“That’s me. Just don’t call me Jane.”

“Ms. Egan?”

“God, no. It’s Bucky, please.”

Bucky was getting more interesting by the second.

“So what brings us in today?”

“I thought nurses were brighter than that. Then again, you are blonde.”

They’re gonna be here all night if she treats her with her best bedside manner.

“Tell me like I’m five.” She says as she sets up all the equipment. Bucky at least seems to know how to act for the machines.

“The nose that’s gushing blood like a goddamn broken faucet.” She leans her head back and squeezes the bridge some more.

“Actually, if you can lean your head forward,” Gail gently guides her head forward and gives her a wad of gauze to replace the soaked napkin. She gently guides her other arm down to rest at her side for the blood pressure read. She can wait on blood oxygen for now.

“I am prone to head injuries as well. But a volleyball hits a hell of a lot harder than that jackass.”

“What was the cause of the injury?”

“A fist. Pretty fucking simple. If you have eyes.”

Gail could see why someone would feel the urge to punch Bucky. But it was a shame with a face that would be pretty with less blood.

“And this is just routine, but do you feel safe at home?”

Bucky laughs deep in her throat but winces as the sound comes out her nose.

“That’s a complicated question, considering it was my father’s fist that caused this mess. But just put down ‘yes’, I’ll be outta here in a week anyways.”

Gail’s pen hovers above her notepad. Now, despite the assholery, she can tell this woman’s smart. She knows the regulations. She knows Gail has to report anything she hears. Either she wants Gail to report this, or it’s entirely possible she does have a concussion.

Bucky’s still talking.

“I’m just here for Christmas, y’know. I’ll be back on base soon, surrounded by men who dream of being Tom Cruise in Top fucking Gun. Which is fucking stupid because they’re Air Force and god knows they couldn’t handle the Gs.”

Bucky’s either very drunk, very concussed, or very loose-lipped. Gail thought that last one wasn’t usually a preferred quality in the military.

Bucky’s heart rate is high, which isn’t typical for someone who can clear a flight physical. She’s rambling on about something else now.

“Have you consumed alcohol or drugs recently? This won’t go beyond this emergency room, so you can answer honestly.”

“No drugs, but a shitton of alcohol. Y’know how Christmas is.”

Gail blinks the sting out of her eyes and shoves the echo of her father’s drawl to the back of her mind.

“Right. We’re gonna have to send you for a CT. We can do that here, so that’ll be done right away. If that’s inconclusive we’re gonna have to wait ‘til you sober up to do some other tests.”

Bucky mutters a curse under her breath.

“Let’s check on that nose first, the bleeding should have stopped by now.”

Gail takes the gauze away and it seems the bleeding’s ebbed. She leaves Bucky alone for a moment to order the CT. Once that’s done and Bucky’s back, she settles down at her desk again to wait.

Bucky appears in front of her again.

“You guys don’t have any Playboy, do you?”

Gail considers violence for a moment. She sees Bennie snicker out of the corner of her eye. Her salvation enters in the form of a man walking through the door with an oddly twisted wrist. He’s in a suit and there’s a woman next to him looking worried. Gail waves him over to the desk but Bennie swoops in.

“I can take you guys over here.” Bennie says in that chipper customer service tone.

Gail sighs through her teeth.

“So, Playboy?”

“You’re not actually serious.” She glares, a warning.

“My phone died, so…” Bucky drums her fingers on the counter.

Gail pulls her own charger out of the port and puts it on the counter between them. Bucky inspects the connector and puts it down awkwardly.

“Shit,” She makes the one syllable last a lifetime. “I actually have an iPhone.” She smiles that smile that she must think is charming. “How long are we going to be waiting on that analysis?”

“It’ll be ready just as soon as the doctor’s had a chance to look it over.” Gail tries to look busy and for once actually misses the busy work of a hospital.

Bucky slides a deck of cards onto the counter, brushing the cord aside. Gail laughs before she can stop herself.

“Does that work on all the girls?” She is amused, she can give Bucky that.

“Only the ones stuck in the ER on Christmas Eve.”

“So you do this every year?”

“Only when I hear the pretty nurses are working.”

Gail rolls her eyes but takes the hand of cards when Bucky deals them.

After a couple rounds, Gail thinks she can get away with pressing further about the injury.

“How did you say this whole thing started?” She doesn’t look Bucky in the eye as she shuffles, she doesn’t want to spook her back into the weaponized persona she’d worn before.

Bucky laughs a little.

“That’s actually a long story. You’d have to go back about fifteen years to get the answer to that. Short answer is, I’m a little too much and my dad has a little too short of a temper. And mom thought it was easier to dump me here than have a conversation like actual fucking adults.”

Gail feels bad for her having thought the same thing at first.

“To be fair to your mom, it does seem like you’re bad at having actual conversations.” Gail hazards a tease.

Bucky smiles softer than before. “That’s true.”

Bennie comes out of the back room with a file folder.

“It looks like you’re good to leave, Ms. Egan. We’ll give you a form to send to your insurance company and then you can go.”

Gail feels a little disappointed. Bucky’s crass personality has started to grow on her. She hands the deck of cards back to her and goes to retrieve the form. When she comes back and hands it to Bucky, she finds the other woman looks almost shy.

“Thank you. And happy holidays.” She almost turns to go, but Gail stops her.

“We’re being polite now?” She asks, well aware of the goofy grin on her own face. She pauses a moment. The mood changes. “You’re not going back to your father’s house, are you?”

Bucky shrugs.

“I don’t have any other plans tonight. Might as well.” There’s something mischievous in her voice.

“My shift’s over at midnight. And there is an IHOP across the street.”

“Is a healthcare professional coming onto a patient right now? I’ll tell the board about this, you know.” Bucky looks at her like she’s serious but there’s a spark in her eyes.

“What board? Like you fucking know.”

Bucky laughs. “What was the turn on? Was it the daddy issues or the bleeding all over you?”

“If it was the bleeding, there might actually be ethical issues with my nursing.”

Bucky laughs again. Is Gail actually funny or is Bucky still trying too hard?

“I’ll get us a table, alright?”

“Okay.” Gail smiles at her, even once she’s out the door.

Nowhere, Wisconsin might have some perks.

oh. my. gauwd. BESTIE??

off topic for a quick sec but i recently read fifty shades for the first time (i watched the movie back in high school) to see if it was freaky as mass media was making it out to be…

fifty shades deadass is vanilla compared to the captain’s reward—not only did it match my freak, bestie, it SURPASSED 💀 anastasia “i cry after less than 10 spanks” steele could never last a day in reader’s shoes

ANYWAYS i digress

what did i think of steve’s proposal? fuckass proposal but hey let’s give him some credit by giving it more thought rather than having chatgpt write it for him 😭

THIS QUESTION omg i’ve been laying in bed staring at the ceiling deadass for a good 15 minutes just to ponder this… so like, we all get that steve is clearly possessive over reader—like it’s as clear as climate change at this point HOWEVER i feel like after that encounter with bucky and ESPECIALLY at the end when reader in her sluggish drugged state gushing over bucky, i think it’ll definitely make steve more insatiable than he already is (so the insatiable in him goes from like 101% to 199% these are definitely legitimate percentages i take no srgument on this) so on top of her kisses and cries, it’s only when reader meets bucky (at least based on my memory) that steve actually witnesses her smiling and not being miserable for the first time—does this mean that he’ll go soft for reader? my money’s on him trying to force the same laugh from her simply because she’s “his property” and that means that only he gets access to anything that could ever come out from reader 😔 right now, if anyone were to ask him, he’d refuse to admit that he’d willingly go soft for reader without an ulterior motive (but then again he’s also a guy that doesn’t really need to do the ulterior motive thing around reader since, in his mind, reader should be submissive to his every word to begin with) anywho, i definitely can picture a moment between reader and steve where he ends up flubbing something up unintentionally which makes reader giggle a bit, but then he stares back at her, she remembers that he’s the devil personified and then shuts herself up unless she’s willing to get railed close to death again, which in turn makes steve simutaneously frustrated and upset because how the fuck can bucky make reader smile and giggle without trying but steve can’t get those same reactions? she’s his property after all?? tf??? in the end, it’s not really about steve wanting reader’s affection let alone love but the fact that any and all her emotions and actions belong to him—after all, exploiting his image and taking advantage of his power is all steve’s pretty much ever known, it’s gonna take quite a while for reader to break through all that and have him going soft for her (if it ever happens, that is)

oh steve’s deifnitely planning bucky’s murder as we speak that’s as clear as musk’s n*zi salute

anyways those are my takes on the questions, but i just wanna bring up some things

TONY MF STARK like as soon as he is on steve’s bs like it all just CLICKS like—i remember reading the first part about tony drowning in alcohol cuz of the darkness of the job, only to find out that darkness IS steve oooh the plot is PLOTTING i see your game queen 😭

the PARENTS?? geez if i never read a more fucked up version of beauty and the beast (yunno in the sense that they gave their child away to a guy but instead out of fear it’s because of steve’s charm, and only reader is subject to his ugliness 😶)

and PEGGY—damn like i never really cared about her but she done fucked steve up (or maybe she didn’t but steve’s just so traditionally misogynist)

amazing work as always, besite, keep it tf up 🥹<3

AHHHH bestie firstly thank you so much for always supporting my writing! Truly you don’t realise how much youre valued and how great you are! 🥺🥺🙌🏼🙌🏼🥹🥹✨✨

Also LMAO I remember reading fifty shades when I was 12/13 and even back then I’d read spicier fanfiction 😭💀 but it wasn’t the vanilla-ness of fifty shades that offended me it was more like how badly it was written that even 12 year old me was able to detect it 😂

BUT ANYWAYS, thank you so much for leaving such a wonderful review! And OK so Steve didn’t have ChatGPT write his proposal, but 1000% one of his PR people wrote it for him 😭 like he did NOT write that himself!

And also yes exactly. Spot on. STEVE wants to be the reason she has stars in her eyes. Not out of niceness but because she’s his and so her source of anything (happiness, excitement etc) should solely be HIM. And definitely not another man. Steve’s ego just won’t allow it. But it’ll be interesting to see if this just makes him more awful and barbaric or if he perhaps changes tack and subconsciously tries to win her approval (in his own egotistical, maniacal, meathead way of course)

And yep haha, Steve would make Bucky’s murder look like an accident. But would he go that far? Or would he rather just focus on reader and somehow make her forget about Bucky? Idk…

I really enjoyed writing Tony Stark! I don’t even like the character much but he’ll be a funny foil for Steve. I mean Steve doesn’t even see Tony as competition in any way or form. But just how much does Tony know about Steve’s dark “habits”? 🤔

The parents of reader I think are just super innocent and huge fans is Steve. They just can’t imagine his intentions would be anything less than pure. So they trust him 🥺 and LMFAO Peggy really did a number on Steve, you’re right. Or is Steve just an unreliable narrator? Who knows haha.

⏳, ❤️, 💔, ✔️, ✖️, ✨, 👕, 🫂, 😒 (i bet it's rodney /hj /lh), 🖍️, 💥, 🐦, 🔮, 👥 for the kin ask game!

i tried to pick emojis i haven't already sent in, but if i did accidentally pick one i already sent u can just ignore it.

⏳ - How long have you known about this kin?

Uhhhhhhhhh. I'm REALLY bad with time but I'm gonna say. Like a month? Roughly? But also years?

❤️ - What's your favorite memory from this kin? AND 💔 - What's your least favorite memory from this kin?

I hate to say it but I don't think I have any. Memories.

✔️ - What details about this kin, if any, line up really close with canon?

Most of them I think?

✖️ - What details about this kin, if any, are really different from canon?

I would never treat Norm like that. That's my SON. Also feel much more conflicted about Roger. And. This is a really weird one that started out as a random headcanon? HATE catch. The game.

✨ - What did you look like?

Pretty much the same? Probably...paler skin and a more crooked nose.

👕 - What sort of clothing do you associate with this kin?

I mean.

🫂 - Who were you closest with in your canon?

Vanessa, Perry the Platypus, and Norm, obviously. I'm sure there were others and all, but they're the closest.

😒 - Who did you dislike most / not get along with from your canon?

Of course it's Rodney. Of fucking COURSE it's Rodney. How DARE that little shit imply his nerdy ass son is even HALF as competent as my daughter. How fucking DARE he. What a little shit. Fucker thinks just because he has good posture and a name long enough to give a perfectly healthy person a goddamn stroke he's BETTER than me?? And WHO does he think he is to stand between Norm and Chloe?? That's parenting 101 you dumb fuck! That's how you get your kid to resent you for life!!! This isn't Romeo and Juliet, and you aren't Lord Capulet you backwater hooligan

🖍️ - What hobbies or activities make you think of your kin?

Scheming, stealing, rambling, etc

💥 - What skills or abilities did this kin have, if any, that you can't do now but wish you could? (ie superpowers, languages you don't speak, skills you don't currently have, etc)

I can't tinker for shit I have no idea how to do that . Head in hands. I have the ideas and I'm smart enough to put things together but I have no idea how tinkering works , if I could build shit I'd be the most powerful motherfucker on the planet you don't even know

🐦 - Is there anything you miss about this kin's body that you don't currently have? (ie basic appearance traits, tails, wings, etc)

Man what DON'T I. That nose rocked, I miss being. Weirdly lanky, way too long fingers, and TALL. 6'2" in canon and now I'm NEARLY A WHOLE FOOT SHORTER THAN THAT I HATE BEING THE SMALLEST PERSON IN THE ROOM AT ANY GIVEN TIME I HATE IT SO MUCH

🔮 - Have you ever predicted something about your source material before it happened based on kin feelings? (For example, having a kin memory that lines up with something that happens in your source before you ever knew about it)

I'll be honest I have no idea. I'll have to rewatch the newer episodes. Besides it's. Really hard to differentiate between kin feelings and headcanons.

👥 - Do you have any canonmates for this kin, and/or are you interested in finding canonmates?

No I've only ever met the one. Perry the Platypus. That's it. But then again I haven't exactly been looking, so heyyy who knows what might come up

[fire-but-ashes-too]

Annexander (is it how were calling it?? idk) (@holdmyteaplease ur the expert on this give me a feedback)

Alexander: Think you can answer some questions without the usual level of sarcasm? Anne: If you can ask the questions without the usual level of stupid.

Alexander: *shatters a window and climbs through it* Alexander: *turns around and helps Anne through it* Breaking and entering is wrong Anne. Anne: Okay. Anne: Shut it Alexander, I only shook your hand because I had to. We will NEVER be friends. Alexander: Lets survive this together! Anne: I HOPE YOU DIE. Anne: Fellas, I gotta know for science. Is the opposite of red green or blue? Alexander: Technically a mix of green and blue? Anne: So blurple. Alexander: That's implying you're mixing blue and purple. Anne: Would you rather have fucking bleen? MOTHERFUCKING GRUE? Alexander: You were confusing before but now I'm scared Anne, holding a scooter: Alexander! Can I go outside and play with this? Alexander: Sure, whatever. I'm not your parent, okay? Anne, running outside: Thanks Alexander! Alexander, running out after them and screaming: NOT ON THE STREET! STAY AWAY! Alexander: It’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s free: pouring river water in your socks! Anne: Why would I do that? Alexander: It’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s free!

HELP CAUSE WHY IS THIS SO THEMMMM AKFGASKJGF

Anne and Indigo (the absolute besties)

Anne: So... what would you do if you were in bed with me? Indigo: Depends. Is your bed comfortable? Anne: Yes. Indigo: I'd sleep.

*Anne sends more than 5 messages in a row* Indigo: I ain’t reading all that. Indigo: I’m happy for you tho. Indigo: Or sorry that happened. Anne: I have a plan. Indigo: Good! As long as we aren’t breaking the law again, I’m open to hearing it. Anne: … Indigo: … Anne: I no longer have a plan.

Anne: Oh, so when crows remember people who wronged them and hold grudges, its “intelligent” and “really cool”. Anne: But when I do it, I’m “petty” and “need to let it go”.

ok... this is scarily accurate...

Alexis and Claire (friends to lovers complete dumbasses edition)(they have exactly 1 brain cell and they take turns being the responsible one. most times i gets forgotten at home)

Alexis: My hands are cold. Claire: Here, let me hold them. Alexis: My lips are cold too. Claire: *covers Alexis's mouth with their hand* Alexis: You’d be stupid to lay a hand on me. Claire: Oh, you’d be surprised how much stupid shit I do. Claire: You either buckle down and do your work or you’ll end up at McDonalds. Alexis: We're going to McDonalds if I don't do my work? Claire: NO- Alexis: What do you do for a living? Claire: I exist against my will. Alexis: Claire, I have a question. Claire: What is it, Alexis? Alexis: What color is an orange? Claire: Alexis, you bonehead! Its color is the same as its name. Just like a lemon. Alexis: I hope no one lowkey hates me. Alexis: Highkey hate me. Hate me with every fiber of your being. Alexis: Go big or go home.

THIS IS FUN. VERY FUN.

Super random little fun facts about Euphie no one asked for but I’ve yet to mention:

• She was born and raised in Marylebone, London. It’s a reference to Wizard 101’s “Marleybone.” They were my favorite cast of characters in the game growing up because stylish, posh doggies.💕✨ (Didn’t realize the deeper meaning of them being infuriatingly ignorant colonists until I was much older, but I prefer to keep my innocent nostalgia intact.)

• Her mother, Nightingale, is a talented seamstress running a (secretly enchanted) boutique. All the muggle ladies marvel at how whenever they wear her merchandise, any number of their ailments seem to diminish for a while. She just winks in that coy way Euphemia inherited whenever they ask how she does it. Her father, Vincent, is a muggle reporter for The Morning Herald.

• Since Euphemia is a Half-Blood raised in the Muggle World, she comes to alternate between phrases from both cultures with horrendous timing. She’ll say “Good Lord!” in front of a Pure-Blood, then “Merlin’s Beard!” in front of her childhood friend. Her parents have had to make several creative saves during constitutionals, playdates, and dinner parties.

Buyer & seller info

Payment schedule

Financing methods

Vacant possession (aka when you get your keys!)

Defect liability period

And even the house plan (yes, the actual measurements)

Your SPA is what legally binds the deal — once it’s signed, there’s no more “changing your mind” without consequences. Speaking of which…

🚨 Thinking of Backing Out? Read This First. If you're the buyer and decide to terminate the SPA, there’s usually a 10% penalty of the purchase price. Bought a home for RM500,000? That’s a RM50,000 mistake. And for sellers? Backing out isn’t really an option. Most SPAs come with a “specific performance clause,�� meaning legal action will come knocking.

💸 Stamp Duty 101 Under the Stamp Duty Act 1949, you'll need to pay stamp duty — a kind of tax on your property transfer.

There are two types:

Fixed duty

Ad valorem duty (this one applies to most real estate)

Your duty is calculated by the Inland Revenue Board (IRB) after consulting the Valuation and Property Services Department.

BUT good news for first-time homebuyers: You may qualify for stamp duty exemptions under the Stamp Duty (Remission) (No. 2) Order 2016, IF:

You’re Malaysian 🇲🇾

Buying a residential property priced at RM500,000 or below

SPA is dated between January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2018

And this is your first ever home (not even an inherited one)

There are also exemptions for love-based transfers (think: parent → child), recognizing that sometimes, it’s more than just a transaction 💞

🔑 Vacant Possession — When Do You Get the Keys? This clause is EVERYTHING. You should get your keys:

Within 24 months (landed)

Within 36 months (strata, e.g., condos)

If your developer delays this? You’re entitled to LAD (Liquidated Ascertained Damages), usually 10% per year of the purchase price until you receive your keys.

🧾 Different SPAs for Different Properties? Yup.

Schedule G → Landed (terrace, semi-Ds)

Schedule H → Strata (condos, apartments)

Each has different terms because strata properties have shared areas (pools, parking, etc.) that need extra regulation.

💼 Who Drafts the SPA? How Much Does It Cost? Usually, the buyer’s lawyer prepares the SPA. And yep — the buyer pays for it.

💰 Legal fees? Expect to fork out 3–4% of the transaction value. Trust me, this is not the time to DIY. Your lawyer isn’t just writing up a doc — they’re safeguarding your rights and dealing with everyone (banks, sellers, agents, etc.).

📌 TL;DR: Buying a house is a big deal — emotionally, financially, and legally. Your SPA is your safety net. Understand it. Ask questions. And for heaven’s sake, get a good lawyer.

Because when things go south, that document is your only shield.

Happy house hunting! 🏠✨

Understanding Cat Attacks: A Pet Parent's Journey 🐱

You guys won't believe the journey I've been on with Luna (yes, another Luna - I know half of Tumblr's cats are named Luna 😅). Like, one minute she's this purring angel on my lap, and the next? CHOMP. Classic cat move, right?

But here's the tea ☕️...

After collecting enough battle scars to look like I've fought a tiny velociraptor, I finally get it. And no, it's not because our cats are secretly plotting world domination (okay, maybe a little).

The Parent Trap 👀

You know that theory about cats seeing us as their parents? It's actually legit! Luna does this adorable thing where she:

Kneads my stomach like she's making tiny biscuits

Brings me her "gifts" (thanks for that dead leaf, sweetie)

Makes these special meows that are just for me (yes, I recorded them, don't judge)

But plot twist: they're not just furry babies. They're their own little CEOs with very specific boundaries and policies about personal space.

The Signs I Was Too Dense to Notice 🤦‍♀️

Y'all, cats are literally giving us PowerPoint presentations about their feelings, and we're here like "why did they attack out of nowhere?"

Here's your cheat sheet for Cat Body Language 101:

Tail going wild? That's not a party

Back doing the wave? Abort mission

Pupils looking like they've seen a ghost? RUN

Ears doing the airplane mode? Nope

Growling like a tiny motor? That's not purring, bestie

The "Please Stop Touching Me" Chronicles 😫

Remember when your aunt wouldn't stop pinching your cheeks at family gatherings? That's us with our cats sometimes. Big revelation: constant pets ≠ eternal happiness.

How I Fixed My Life (Mostly) ✨

Respect the Queen/King

Read the room (or the tail)

Give them space

Let them come to you (playing hard to get works both ways)

Playtime Protocol

Got proper toys (hands are not toys, learned THAT the hard way)

Regular play sessions

Channel that murder instinct productively

Created Cat Heaven

Vertical space for their royal highness

Secret hideouts everywhere

Treats hidden like Easter eggs

Regular schedule (because they're secretly control freaks)

The Enlightenment™️ 💡

Here's the thing - once I stopped expecting Luna to be a tiny human in a fur suit, everything clicked. She's not mean, she's just speaking Cat, and I was trying to speak Human.

Now our relationship is like that perfect avocado toast - just right. (Yes, I'm a millennial, fight me)

TL;DR

Cats are going to cat. Learn their language, respect their boundaries, and maybe you'll end up with fewer war stories to tell at brunch.

16, 22, 26, 34, 63

THANK YOU NONNIE! ❤️✨ Sorry for the late reply.

16. How many fic ideas are you nurturing right now? Share one of them?

Hmm, I have a few ideas, but most of them are for my WIPs. But I have two ideas I probably won’t ever write, which are a 101 Dalmatians AU (but with cats) and a Reincarnation AU.

22. Are there certain types of writing you won’t do? (style, pov, genre, tropes, etc)

Oh, I won’t do Parent-Child Incest, it’s not my thing. Also the Daddy kink ain’t for me, and probably Enemies to Lovers? That’s the 3 things coming at the top of my mind right now.

26. Which of your fics would you call your wildest ride?

“grieving for the living” 😭 I was so numb with the pain writing this, and like at work it was hard and I was struggling with sleep (tho I still am), and I had to convey all those emotions… It was definitely the wildest ride I’ve ever written.

34. Five years from now, where do you see yourself as a writer?

Ooof, I don't know. I lowkey wish I’ll have written this book I’ve been meaning to write for years, and that it will be published. Also, I hope I will have like 50 fics posted on AO3 (lowkey a goal, but I’m barely half-way through it RIP). And I hope my descriptions will be better than it actually is.

63. Something you hate to see in smut.

The words “cum” and dirty talks. Dirty talks can turn out so quickly as cringe and make me feel like 😬 so yeah, I don’t like it. And “cum”, because I wanna scream “be more poetic and creative!”. But obviously, that’s just my taste.

[lwlrence]

I’m an esoteric researcher, remember that.

Heres why you should pray. Purely cuz you know why i tell you this is how you’d actually stop letting people judge you and see where your heart will humble you.

✨GLOW UP 101 - RAMADAN HELL.✨

You’d be thinking, 👼😇bE gOoD tO yOuR pArEnTs😇👼 but fuck you if your rights are not stabilised in security to your heart’s affection to Allah if you think you’re better than anybody, cuz guess f*cking what, if you’re not good, then you’re not good, if you’re gonna end up becoming a narcissist, then you know why you’re not there, and purely, Allah hates those of hatred towards humanity of a conscious mind

Fajr : heart in heaven. = Uranus

It helps with hearts to seek peace cuz night terrors often comes to an ungrateful heart

Unmarried: you would pray for your heart to succeed in known to your mother, father will allow you to live like you should.

Married: dependent on sex and heart in heaven for woman. Man automatically becomes demon for wife’s angel at night time

Dhuhr: heart in hell. Marital orientation = Mercury

Mental orientation will not stagnate in heaven.

Pretty redeemable if you knew your heart cuz of the wife will be dreaming of you but the angels won’t look at you (husband)

Your heart will ease from mental overload and you will find peace in what you do (wife)

Asr: beauty prayer = Venus

Men - revitalises eyes, makes a man realise patience at full heart and strength. Destabilises anger (ares in cold blood)

Women - it will make them physically beautiful in all ways. (Aphrodite if no heart is made for them)

Maghrib: you right now = Neptune + Pluto = Sun

The condition of the heart = treatment of Earth.

✨common sense comes to them in equal matters of knowledge obtained✨

Health of heart in hell, state of father for the daughter, mother for the son.

It’s the finality of the heart

It’s also the condition of the parent on Judgement day. Hearts continue in immediate (family), body forms in state of durability in heaven (quality control), also it’s the physical alignment to your heart in hell become you, karmic statement in full adversity in backwards shame, the entirety of the body becomes an understatement of the body’s actual durability in heaven (you can say it’s another Earth in ways of the heart taught what love is and how you were using the bible to your heart)

Isha: Neptune and Jupiter

Heartfelt message to God (actual)

Sexual invitation to your heart, but you know it’s there. Love beyond compare to your own heart in hell, family bonds in hell to your own heart rn, good day pass, no hardships

Missing Isha is Saturn in reverse but compensated if good deeds are done

YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN BLOWING UP MY POST ABOUT WANTING A PART 2 FOR BRUNO X PREGNANT READER.

{A/N: ✨⌛️My notifications have been going off all day with you guys flooding me with love for my last set of head canons! TYSM for all the love guys you are all amazing! So back by demand here is a part 2 for Bruno x Pregnant reader! I figured since the baby was born in the last head cannon I’d do a little bit of Dad life with how he’d react the second time around! ⌛️ ✨}

{Word count: unknown}

{Warnings 🚨: cavity forming fluff}

The first night home with a new born was always the roughest….and Bruno found that out the hard way.

Every two or so hours the baby would scream, demanding the nutrients your swollen breast would provide. They’d wake you both up from your light sleep, neither one of you lucky enough to sink deeply under the sweet tides of rest.

The first few times Bruno would wake up with you. Those tired green eyes of his would sympathetically look between you and the small baby latched onto your chest, watching what felt like helplessly as you did all of the work yourself. However as the feeding demands persisted through the night and it became apparent that sleep was meant to evade your body, you assured your husband it was fine for him to stay asleep.

Y/n: “Why don’t you go back to bed mi Amor, there’s not much you can do for us right now. We’ll be okay, I promise.”

Too tired to argue with you, he’d sigh and nod his head, giving both you and the baby one last kiss before rolling himself over and doing what he could to get some more sleep.

The next morning when you’re fast asleep, he’d do what he could to care for the baby without having to wake you up. Your body looked so drained. He couldn’t bare to bother you, not when the guilt of being useless the previous night loomed over his head.

He’d bring the baby out of the bedroom, allowing you the peace and quiet you needed to rest, even if was only for a maximum of two hours.

Lord help this man. He was clueless.

He understood the basics. Holding Bebe 101 was a cake walk. When most of the nieces and nephews were born, he’d held a good majority of them. The problem in lied handling them when the tears and screaming amped up.

If he was being honest, when the babies cried he had a tendency to hand them back to their parents…but this was different. He couldn’t hand the baby off to anyone, this time it was his baby. It broke his heart to hear them wail, knowing he had entirely no clue what to do.

He’d panic.

Definitely not gonna panic. He’s fine.

He’s not fine. He has no idea what he’s doing and the baby will not stop crying!

All the man knows is he doesn’t want to wake you.

He’d take a few deep breathes to steady his nerves before approaching his mother. If anyone would know how to calm a baby, it’d be the wisest of all mothers, an Abuela.

Bruno: “Mamà, I think I need some help…I-I don’t know why they won’t stop crying, I-I didn’t do anything. She was fine one minute and then the next she was crying and I don’t know what to do to fix it. All I know is I don’t want to wake Y/N…”

The woman would guide him along as she went over every little trick and tip she’d collected throughout her 76 years. The woman’s raised 3 babies and helped raise 6 grand babies, she has her fair share of trade secrets when it comes to soothing tears.

Abuela: “Brunito, you are more capable than you think. I know that deep down you have the answers of what to do, mi tesoro. Don’t over think the little things, there’s no right or wrong answer in the end. Do what you think is right in your heart. El amor todo lo puede.”

He definitely came to the right person for help.

Soon enough time progressed and the small new born bundle of joy you and your husband had welcomed into world had grown. The nights were easier to get through and your personal time was schedulable, allowing you and your husband to finally have some peace to yourselves. 

Upon Mirabel’s suggestion, you and Bruno had decided to leave your baby alone for just one night to spend some time dedicated to yourselves. It was something neither of you had done since the arrival of your baby, and it was something that was well deserved. 

Bruno was a nervous wreck at the thought. What if Mirabel couldn’t handle the baby? What if she missed him too much, and wouldn’t settle down? What if she needed you? There was hesitation seeping through his features as he held the baby close to his chest, nose buried in her bouncy wild curls. 

Bruno: “Do we really have to do this? I’m just...not comfortable- I mean, I know Mirabel wouldn’t let anything happen I-....It’s just we’ve never left her alone. Not both of us, what if something crazy happens and we aren’t here for it. Scary plant babies can sprout from the floor and casita could crumble”

Y/N: “Mi amor.” 

Bruno: “Okay, so that wouldn’t happen, that was a bad example- I’m just saying anything could happen when we’re gone...”

It’d take a lot of convincing bit of mild convincing from you, but Bruno would inevitably give in, and spend the night with you at the edge of the Encanto under the stars. 

Bruno: “Just- make sure she has her blanket, she loves that thing, won’t go to bed without it. Oh! And uh- she likes pulling on hair s-so be careful about that. And if she starts fussing and you can’t seem to calm her down, the rats like to do this little thing with her, it’s kind of cute, actually its really cute-”

Mirabel: “Tiooo Bruno, I have this handled. Me and this little munchkin are gunna be A’ okay, go! Have a fun time with Tia Y/N! Have a nice dinner under the stars, relax a little, maybe make another cute baaaaaby for me to babysit”

THE MAN PRACTICALLY CHOKED ON HIS TONGUE.

You’d give a laugh as the man grabs his chest desperately trying to expel the air he swallowed too roughly. 

You adore the way his cheeks flush with embarrassment, you ushering him out of the house. You give Mirabel a small wink before giving your baby a smooch to the nose, promising that the two of you won’t be back late. 

As the months continue and your life molds into its new sense of normality, you and your husband find ways to be more creative about sharing intimate moments. You fully take advantage of every free moment the two of you get, filling the time with each others company….if you get the drift

With your baby’s first birthday just around the corner, you’d managed to stumble across a rather large surprise. 

Delores: “Two heart beats.”

Y/N: “What?” 

Delores: “You have two heart beats. Thud Thud. Thud Thud. I can HEAR a second heart beat. Oop! You’re having another baby. When are you going to tell Tio Bruno? Does he know yet?” 

While the knowledge wasn’t fresh to you, the rest of the family still had no idea about the upcoming surprise you’d been holding secretly for close to several weeks now. 

You had a feeling once a heart beat formed you wouldn’t be able to hide your little secret for long. Your nieces gift put quiet the damper on that idea. 

Y/N: “He does not know...and for all intents and purposes, neither do you. I promise I’m going to tell him, I just need you to keep this secret for a little while longer, just until after the birthday celebration.” 

You know she won’t.

Maybe she will, Delores could surprise you! 

She couldn’t. You had to follow her around all party, doing your best to make sure her mouth stays sealed. 

It doesn’t.

Every time you’d turn your back, a new set of eyes would sparkles your way, the forbidden knowledge of your secret passing around the party like a plate of arepas.

It started with Pepa, her over joyance about the news driving the temperature of the room up. 

Felix: “Pepi, mi amor, you’re going to wilt the flowers” 

By the time you finally caught up with everyone, trying to keep the news under wraps from the one person you wanted to surprise, it was too late. Alma’s palms were pressed to the sides of Bruno’s cheeks, her lips covering every square inch of his face. 

Abuela: “This is wonderful news! This is perfect news! Alabanza!”

The mans face is painted with perplexity as he glances between both you and his mother. His eyes narrow in at you, as he tries to push his mother’s hands politely from his face.  

Bruno: “I feel as if I’m missing a part of this conversation and based on the way everyone's looking at me, I feel that part of the conversation is a pretty big deal.”

Abuela: “You mean you don’t know? You haven’t told him yet?”

POOR CLUELESS BRUNO

EVERYONE IN THE ROOM KNOWS WHATS GOING ON BUT HIM.

HE WAS NOT IN THE ROOM WHERE IT HAPPENED.  

THE LIGHTS ARE ON UPSTAIRS BUT NO ONES HOME. 

His eyes flicker between you, and his mother, and his family, and then back to you. 

Truly, he’s lost. 

Please return back to Y/N if found. 

Y/N: “I know this year has been a rollercoaster. We’ve both grown so much, especially you. Look at where you are, look at where you’ve started, I am so proud of you. I hope you learned a lot this year about being a father, because we get to do it all over again. Felicidades, mi Amor.” 

The man’s response is a mixture of expressions spilling over his features. Bewilderment and joy settle through the storm of emotions as your lover’s body is thrown against yours, pressing you flush against him. As his face buries into the crook of your neck you can feel the damp sensation of his jubilation against your skin. Your family had come so far, and you were both excited to see it grow more.
