New Dog's Life chapter today! ~ 3rd Life series fan-season

Chapter 48 - “O Dragon, My Dragon (Cleo, Mumbo, Bdubs)”

❤️ Read on AO3

💛 Start from Chapter 1

💚 More Pixels Imperfect fics

💜 My MCYT AUs

---

Bdubs never lost his grip on Mom’s feathers, no matter how roughly she shook or how strong she beat her wings. Hear that? He’s been captain material since he was just a little guy. So if anyone says he screamed when the Fox Dragon spiraled upward through a snowstorm, his whole body wrapped around her tail, they don’t know what they’re talking about. It’s a captain hug. It keeps a man alive. Aw, screw it. “Where’s the seatbelt on this thing!?” he hollers, digging his claws in white and ginger fur. He feels like a ribbon. Maybe a flag, snapping in the wind like he’s as lightweight as the fur on her neck.

In which Cleo reads her mail, Bdubs takes on a patrol captain, Mumbo aids a kidnapping, and Scott lets the Allay Dragon take control.

ZombieCleo

Location: Cleo’s unit, Core District, 2nd Floor, 872

💙  🧡  💚

It’s not often that Cleo feels the need to peek from their portal like some kind of mole or meerkat. Maybe an ostrich. Most days, she’s quite happy to sweep out, sometimes midway through typing a message on their comm or pulling up their hair. It’s one of the nice things about living in a non-anarchy hub; New Star doesn’t allow portal camping or trapping, and although she has flatmates, the bedroom’s off-limits to everyone but her. Thank Scott and his keycards for that. Or maybe not Scott, but… Tango? Probably Tango; Scott can’t touch nametags in Between. It’s an allay thing.

… It’s not, actually, Cleo’s exclusive room any longer. As of this week, that’s wrong. Scott’s not a big fan of beds while in Between, and that’s partly why he never saw the point in “renting” his own space. It’s not, like… easy? to set spawn on accident, prompting the bed to explode? But the fear of maybe doing so haunts his mind every day. He much prefers a couch. Toss him a nice blanket and he’ll even sleep on the floor. He prefers cute pajamas, but he’ll sleep in dirty clothes. Cleo did some rearranging after he moved in. Her bed, which once lay flush against the window, now lies opposite the door, and the desk Scott brought from his old housing unit stands by her closet. It works. It’s still a work in process, but they got the fairy lights up and fixed some of the stickers that popped from tiny item frames. It’s cute!

No Scott sitting in the chair, though. No Sminor5991 either… He has his own desk for clip edits, but y’know. Minor’s sort of in with Hums and Moo, so if he’d wandered in to bring a message from Scott, Cleo wouldn’t have minded. He’s got Scott’s emergency key.

Nothing… looks wrong in her room. It’s not on fire. It’s not flooded. It didn’t collapse. Still… she checks each carpet square when moving past her bed and the edge of Scott’s desk to the window. No mural yet, she thinks ruefully, and almost laughs. Well. At least the paperwork’s approved. Now they just need to find an artist. Even as a zombie, there are only so many years of staring at a dark gray wall that she can take. She invited Etho over a while ago and even he got distracted from their cuddling to ask why, if she’s so close with Scott, she still has such a terrible view. And he’s Etho! Maybe she’ll go bug Grian sometime (Hang out eating sandwiches while watching signs of movement in the tree farm) or visit Mumbo’s llamas in his custom pen just to mix up her environment.

New Star seems like it’s still standing. Cleo settles in their reading nook and presses their head to the fencepost barring off the window. She squints. Not a lot’s visible from here (See also, express priority mural demands) and the thin stripe of street she can see outside the alley is deserted. Not unusual, I guess? It’s just… quiet.

What’s with the outage, then? Weird. The energy for an optional leap crackled through her skin a little earlier, but that didn’t do her much good without an admin panel. It went down, total disconnect. Until it came back, she couldn’t relight the dead portal from the inside.

Might as well check announcements. When they pull up their messages, it looks like a station-wide ping. Oh?

Smajor1995: NEWS - All portals down in unexpected system crash (Headquarters damage). Core is back online; no repeat events expected. Report any missing persons directly to me and I’ll accelerate retrieval priority. Mail route starts Friday; drop all outgoing mail in labeled barrel at park ASAP. Contact HALO with further questions and concerns.

Well, that answers that. Scott’s on top of everything, as usual. Cleo flicks open their private messages. Not having a working admin panel most of the time on-server meant no digital drafting, and no copy-paste to speed things along now (A shame), but they’ve traced the mental words enough times in the last few weeks to know exactly what to say.

ZombieCleo: Hey Scott! Back in Between; swing by and we can talk- Relationship stuff, election stuff, whatever. Send an ETA and I can make us food <3

Simple enough. She’s itching to talk; it was a lonely 10 weeks without him. She made progress on their base. Cleo spends the next few minutes checking and responding to other messages. No Hermitcraft meeting requests today. Nothing from Joe, but that’s no surprise- He saw her on the way to her room in the last minutes before she logged off. They know she made it to her portal all right, and they know they couldn’t reach her.

One check-in message from Gem. Looks like the other Hermits are quiet. Witchcraft chat is silent. One message from Sausage. Nothing from the Herons on Pirates SMP. Two messages from HumanCleo. 11 from Grian being an absolute pain in the butt, which go ignored. Cleo skims those, but only reads the first four before clicking out. Yeah, I picked Martyn- Not you. Get over it. It’s fiiiine. She did send the info for her hair stylist after she went offline, by the way, like she promised. That’s the only thing she agreed to do.

Nothing from Martyn. Cleo tongues the inside of her cheek, debating how she feels about that. Really? Not even one, the whole 10 weeks she spent offline? He’s an admin, right? So he’s got a panel? Martyn hops around a lot of servers and doesn’t always clarify which one he’s referring to when he infodumps, so she’s genuinely not sure which one’s his AFK. She knows he’s working on a small town build somewhere. He’s also got a tropical island going on… He’s collecting dog Pokémon on BCG. Maybe he AFKs in the phantom flock server? Bdubs is admin over there, so Martyn wouldn’t have a panel he could use. No admin panel, no cross-server communication.

Could’ve left me something to wake up to. 10 weeks is a long, long time to go without hearing a peep from your partner…

Tag Game: 9 People You'd Like to Get to Know Better

-`♡´- last song: "Pure as the Driven Snow" from The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (I love the vibes of the songs from the movie + Rachel Zegler has a GREAT voice, she also killed it in west side story)

-`♡´- currently watching:

sports night (just finished season 1)

m*a*s*h (always. or at least select episodes ����)

and the west wing, again, both on my own and with my mom.

-`♡´- three ships:

CJ/Danny

BJ/Hawkeye/Peg

either Casey/Dan or Casey/Dana

-`♡´- favorite color: purple! 💜 (if it wasn't obvious)

-`♡´- currently consuming: nothing! I had a couple of sour candies about an hour ago.

-`♡´- first ship: oh er. Percy/Annabeth from Percy Jackson, probably.

-`♡´- relationship status: lol. single.

-`♡´- film: I'm so bad at watching movies! It was probably when I watched You've Got Mail again over the holiday season. Either that or Die Hard.

-`♡´- currently working on: not my master's thesis. I'm allegedly still working on my mash noir AU, along with my 'wedding' fic set six months after the end of the Bartlet administration. But the depression and horrors and stuff have kept me from really doing either of those. What I'd like to be working on but haven't been is presidental campaign!CJ and the requiem first time smut fic but alas. here we are.

tagging anyone who feels like it.

MOVIE LIST

(⚠️TW⚠️: mentioned lots of triggers without censoring the words as i've heard that can be worse from a friend with cptsd)

Movies I watched and what I think, ever since I started keeping a list

❤️=Sweet/big heart!

🧡=“dumb”/“chick-flick”

 💛=funny/very much a comedy

 💚=artsy/visually interesting/

 💙=sad

💜=has some prominent sexual/other innapropriate elements

 🖤=has some prominent gory/dark elements

🤍=very very odd

a film may still be a little funny or dumb but not sooo prominent that I was sure I wanted to put the heart there

(if there are things that you REALLY can’t watch i’d check https://www.doesthedogdie.com/ or common sense media

Minari- I really liked this! ❤️💛💚💙

muriel’s wedding- you’re terrrrible, muriel(very weird, silly, and australian) not AMAZING but enjoyable for me 🧡💛💜🤍

shark vs eagle-the main character was sooo sweet! I liked this a lot!❤️💛🤍

The Right Stuff-a classic w/outstanding cinamatography💚💙

Napolean Dynamite- Get your OWN tots this film is legendary GOSH! Do chickens have large talons? Liger DUH💛🤍

Amadeus-very long movie, pretty good to watch💚

moonstruck- :) I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT WEREWOLVES UNTIL HALFWAY THROUGh❤️💛

Shirkers- cool story, sophie is my bestie💚

Made you look: fake art documentary- well done and left you with a lot to think about

the full monty- when i heard the premise I wanted to call social services but it was actually HILARIOUS so sweet and talked about serious topics like body insecurity, sexuality, depression, divorce, unemployment, and suicide in a very comfortable/almost realistic way? without it feeling forced in and unnatural. TOTALLY get it if someone didn’t agree that was just my take??❤️🧡💛💜

Goodfellas: no comment. best movie. 💚🖤

Romy and michelle’s high school reunion: Beautiful. (weird, random, comedy flick but i liked it) 🧡💛🤍

The holdovers-this nice and well done! not too much to say.❤️💛💚💙

Night on earth- LOVE these simple vignettes with humor and heart❤️💛💚

Can’t buy me love- wasn’t fully happy with it but entertaining enough. 🧡

She-devil- fun and entertaining, a little dated but a little nuanced ❤️🧡💛

Beetlejuice- I liked edward scizzorhands a little more, but this is still a classic ❤️💛💚

Amarcord- Interesting and had a point but not perfect Weirdly sexual fascist italy slice of life film💛💚💜🤍

FIND TITLE olivia colman anonymous hate mail one- Fun and light with good actors and a great premise💛

Triplets of Belleville- sooo weird. I got something out of it but would not reccomend it to everyone💚🤍

Man on Wire- GREAT documentary ahhhh 💛💚💙💜

The Royal Tenenbaums- just classic wes anderson with a great soundtrack also some probably unnecessary incest and sh 💛💚💜🖤🤍

Wings of Desire-sad, long, beautiful, artsy❤️💚💙

Anatomy of a Fall- SO WELL DONE sad and poignant and fresh and french and kept me on my toes ❤️💚💙🖤

the unbearable weight of massive talent- ridiculous comedy u gotta know about nic cage first probably, give it a chance it gets sillier and there’s pedro pascal which makes me happy🧡💛

Love and Death- funny but niche, if you like russian literature or woody allen that’s the only time i’ll reccomend💛💜🤍

Aftersun- wow. No typical “plot” but I loved it and was captured by the beauty and realistic representation of how memory works❤️💚💙

Feel free to leave suggestions and thoughts/your harshest critiscism/indignation at my takes in the comments!!

love to discuss this stuff!!

awkward office au for wip wednesday 💜💜💜

hi!! this au has got its hooks into me i fear!!

i have 3 requests for this one so this is part 1 of 3

it's wip wednesday!

He can’t pretend like he doesn’t see the way Harrington’s eyes find his when he passes Eddie’s office on the way to the staff kitchen, or the bathroom, or his supervisor’s office, or his dad’s office.  And Steve Harrington does pass Eddie’s office while he’s on his rounds. Every day. Multiple times a day. Like he’s seeking him out or something. He never says a word, though. Never so much as acknowledges Eddie past a fleeting, blink and you miss it type of glance. The hallways of Harrington & Associates are labyrinthine and vast; they’re so maze-like, in fact, that it’s apparently become something of a joke among law students vying for a clerking position with the firm. Two years ago, when Chrissy was in her final year of law school, Eddie was able to get her in as a law clerk and she got turned around every single day her first week, trying to find her way from the litigation wing to the hub of cubicles where Eddie was working intake at the time and back to the Harrison Boardroom for meetings with partners. It prompted Eddie to design a map of the building, complete with labels for each wing and the kitchens and partners’ offices and bathrooms. And that map, designed by Eddie on the clock in fifteen minutes between routing client calls and sorting mail, the one still being used in new-hire onboarding packets, was what got Eddie his promotion from the very bottom rung of the company into marketing, where he’s now in charge of the company’s website and social media profiles.

thinking abt hardcore phil.. most of his shelves are dusty because he has more stuff than he needs stored on them. he tracks dirt and sand and leaves all over his base and has to sweep every single night. every book he reads ends up with his own little annotations in the margins that are mostly little doodles of what the paragraph reminded him of. there’s a pile of random patches of fabric on the floor next to his bed, he meant to turn it into a quilt ages ago. he stays out all night during thunder storms just to collect the heads of mobs to hang on his walls then goes to sleep as the sun rises with soaking wet hair. he tries to make what he can entirely by himself, it would be easier to buy things from a villager sometimes but he’s stubborn. the sleeves of his shirts are always rolled up because it’s usually warm where he lives, which has resulted in really odd tan lines on his arms. he both knows where everything is stored in his base and also forgets the exact placement all the time. his hands are calloused from the long days of working without gloves (he has gloves now and he only forgets to put them on almost half of the time). he takes photos all the time and tries to paint what he’s seen instead when he can’t. the tips of his fingers are always a little shiny from the amount of gapples he eats on a daily. sometimes he forgets about his wings (somehow, after all this time) and they smack against doorframes as he leaves. he places the plants inside his of base outside when it rains instead of storms. there’s a few pieces of random pottery around the base from when he attempted to learn how to do so properly. he likes to stomp in the puddles left by the rain, especially when there’s a crow sitting next to it. he loves the world, his home, a lot because it’s his in everything that he does

chrono trigger ...liveblog? i guess kinda? it was when i was doin the first part in alice’s message box at least cx

Major spoilers under here, play the game before you read this (and . please Do play it if you can, this game is great i do recommend it)

So I just kicked dalton’s ass, and he ran away, and then i saved at the thingy and it says ‘lavos beckons’ and i am Concerned.

ah, hm. mm. queenie’s makin a mistake, methinks.

This place is weird. Neat statues though?

Also Ayla can just pick dudes up and chuck em into the air to deal massive damage when they land?? hot girl shit

hm. this looks fine. nothing going wrong here folks

lmao the scouters keep trying to make my team sleep and it keeps missing but finally they targeted robo and somehow it worked. sleeby robot

dalton stop being extra and just look me in the face when you talk to me pls,, Ah. Well, you did turn around at least, but only to be More dramatic. Also, hiding behind your toys, cmon man,

lmao cheese strats. I equipped the mail and vest for lightning and im only using lightning moves. Copycat is very exploitable,, Poor frog though, got toasted :((

...well. Hello to you too, Lavos. And guest. Ah, magus, of course of course.

oh nooo it didnt work :((

h. holy shit. Crono just got dusted. alright.

oh man, the whole place is falling outta the sky..

...I gotta load a save so I can see everyone’s response to all this. Especially Lucca,, Holy wow.

ah,,

‘’please don’t hate mother, or our kingdom’‘ wow big ask much? Mm.. I can excuse invoking calamity but I draw the line at mistreating your children

oh ouch. luccaaaaa 💔

what an ass haha. oh hell yes lucca just deflected his fireball that was sick!!! ... ah. well it was still sick.

Ooh~ the blackbird. Fools didn’t secure the vents hehehe

This was a neat area. Uh. Golem Boss was kinda sad. Poor dude couldnt even focus up here on the wing. I sorta feel bad

Hm,, Aero-dalton.. this guy is Terrible at naming things huh?

Oh damn they literally just jumped onto. alright. cool cool cool. no fear of heights in this party. Welp, Dalton was once again not a challenge. Rip birdie lmao good job everyone, nice buttons

oh!! this is the . heck nah i wont fight you lets goooo

oh i like that its frog that gets to make this call though lucca was at the front of my party but it put him in front for this scene, ‘cause he has personal reasons to fight magus?

aaaa precious, reunited,,

...

yknow, this thing looming over everything in every time period is mighty unsettling

lmao i see i see thats why this part’s called The Time Egg. time egg time egg time egg

oooh death peak!! was wondering when that would come up again. Makes sense it’d be now,,,,

heck. Magus wrecks everything huh? I mean, appropriate. The dude certainly kicked My ass back when I fought him haha

... gdi. robo got confused or w/e and attacked the wrong thing randomly, which triggered lavos spawn needle and wiped everyone out. thats kinda unfair. Ah well. A minor setback I guess.

egg time

okay that was a sick rescue actually. cant believe that creepy clone doll from the fair actually came in handy lmao

this is a nice shot ^

...sorry im just laughing at magus standing there all awkwardly at this heartwarming reunion

Anywayyyy now that that’s done I went to check out the . desert cave?? and wow is it irritating. Not that the enemies are that tough -- magus’ ice destroys em well enough, but uh. the ground, really hate that.

Took a few tries ouch, but I managed to down retinite. Cool boss. first couple attempts i didnt realize taking out the core first was a Mistake oopsie

yessss robo tending to the forest!! thats so sweet. This is great!

lovely celebratory camp. Cozy. fascinating discussion. ah, hm. a time lucca would go back to, huh? ...

wow she changed huh? ... what’s with the sound effects,, loud gate.

holy Shit that was stressful i totally didnt reload a few times to manage it

worth the trouble 💜 good job lucca youre amazing! aww robo’s gift for her, that’s so sweet as well

im ... almost done i think?? like, isnt this just a ‘‘wrap up sidequests prepare and go fight the big bad’‘ moment? Seems like. guess i know what im doin tomorrow. referring back to that list of sidequests time grandpa gave me and then ... big fire. I really should get some rest now, though. So the rest of that will wait.

I was tagged by my dear friend @hondagirll so thank you Steph 💜

last song: technically I was listening to 1989 TV on the way home from class today, but when I first saw this tag, the last song I'd listened to was "pure as the driven snow" from ballad of songbirds and snakes so we'll go with that.

currently reading: "An Evil Love" by Geoffrey Wansell, about Frederick and Rosemary West 😬. I'd like to say I read more during the break. I did not.

last film: oh boy. Probably Die Hard? I know I rewatched You've Got Mail recently, which I think was after that, but time is blurring together for me.

currently watching: skipping around s4 of MASH for inspiration reasons. Will (hopefully) start a west wing rewatch soon, as soon as I make up my mind on what other sorkinverse show I'll watch.

currently craving: inspiration.

currently consuming: a coffee. sadly, my first of the day.

three ships: CJ/Danny, BJ/Peg/Hawkeye, Kirk/Spock

first ship: the first ship I wrote for was an extremely rare pair from Lost (Alex/Karl)... I don't remember the first thing I shipped ever ���� which is probably for the best since I'm sure the answer would carbon date me as on the young side.

favorite color: purple!

currently working on: "Close to the Heart" (in an epically slow fashion), along with the Seekrit Wedding Project for The West Wing. I'd like to be working on pres!CJ but :// (picking a research-intensive story to work on while also being in grad school was a bit of a silly choice, hence why it's stalled out. apologies to all my readers. I'm sad about it too).

tagging: literally anyone who feels like it!

[sungtaro]

i don't have a top 3 because i am a chronic beloved collector BUT I will endeavor to pick one each from different groups.... the mx besties (already cheated sorry, but they're inseparable in my heart) + giuk (onewe) + seungmin/o.de (xdinary heroes) 💜💜💜

i mean really i think your type IS besties ... hehe but also like. your type is artists. guys that look a little ethereal too

[sungtaro]

CONGRATULATIONS ERI I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜 Hope you had a wonderful time celebrating with your friends & family!!!

thank you wings !! i rly did have a beautiful weekend it felt so special and now i am exhausted SJFNGJ but in the best way. appreciate your support always !! 💜

[sungtaro]

associations 💜: cheekies. boba eyes. sweet & bright. did I mention cheekies? whenever I see hyeongjun in game caterers I think of you (and also, elsewhere, donghyun). hyungwonnie honestly feels a little bit like an outlier, like if all your beloveds were put on a hill, they'd all come rolling down and everyone else would be doing it for the fun & entertainment of it but he'd be doing it because gravity. but then his :} or :> or cheekies make an appearance & I go ah yes that checks out, & I am glad he is your beloved too <3

SOOO TRUE i am, in my real life as a professional baby watcher, a cheek pincher cheek biter cheek kisser i just love the squeesh ... but it's so funny u say that abt hyungwon bc mary clocked me for him literally like. when i first got into kpop and wasn't even looking outside of the tannies. i've actually biased him longer than i've biased like ... 90% of my bias list DSJGHJB and way before i really cared abt mx beyond liking a few songs! like i just feel like he'd be my best friend we'd make faces at each other and laugh at each other and fall out of chairs and not want to be places together all the time. love that little (tall) frog man

send me your assumptions / associations related to my biases !

[sungtaro]

wait eri my beloved local cravity expert. question for you <3 i am intrigued after hearing seongmin's speaking voice on that silly SSE show. i feel like he'd be a countertenor (beloved) if he was a classical vocalist. do u have any recommendations for songs to check out specifically to hear his parts skdfjdks <3 tyyy!

omg i love this ask ... you're not the first person to comment on how lovely seongmin's speaking voice is, it's something interviewers mention all the time ! and i have to agree hehe . anyways, here's my curated picks for showcasing seongmin's delightful vocals:

colorful - seongmin's part is at ~0:58 ! he also finishes the chorus (first instance ~1:38) . there's a lot of great moments for seongmin on their latest mini (party rock and knock knock are notable others to check out for him), but i want to particularly point out colorful bc it was completely written/arranged by one of the other members ( woobin ) and he absolutely took a page out of their mx-sunbae's book in really considering every member's unique tone and where they would fit best with this song. it's super fun, full of love, and truly a treat <;3

flame - his verse part is the most replayed part of this mv and like soooo true ... you can hear that at ~1:16, and then a breathy bridge moment around ~2:15 !

maybe baby - she's my beloved so i have to put her in KJBDGJHB but seongmin has 2nd prechorus at ~1:19 + and he sounds lovely on the chorus and subsequent "ahhhhh's" to finish the song, starting at ~2:18

breathing - seongmin's parts at ~0:43 + ~01:58 (prechorus) ! this is the song that they played at the end of game caterers and then the searches apparently blew up on melon KJBDG but despite being an earlier track for them i think a great ballad to show off their vocals

these are the ones that really come to mind in their discog (and i'm sure i missed some so . luvity sound off in the comments if you have additions!!), but in a group of 9 it can definitely be hard to REALLY get a feel for individual vocals outside of the mains, so i also recommend checking out this adorable nct dream cover that seongmin does with my beloved hyeongjun (ft rap line hehe) to hear more of him ! and let me also plug my BELOVED their cover of exo's 'the eve' bc it rewired my brain . seongmin's parts are at 0:44 and 2:41 <;3

[sungtaro]

ERI!!! Wishing you the happiest ERIBIRTH day!!!! (I was half asleep last night when it ticked over in your timezone and thought I'd be a little more coherent this morning.) You are such a bright and comforting presence in our community here, and it's been a joy getting to know you over the past couple years, watching you grow as a cc and embark on an exciting new journey in your life. It's not easy being a student as a Full Time Adult, and I'm so grateful for your support and hope you know that I am always rooting and cheering for you too!! Love you and hope we will have a wingseri meetup in the future 💜💜💜

thank you wings !! 💜 always grateful to have someone who Gets It virtually by my side from day 1 🥹 we've really been on such a journey the last couple of years. wingseri meetup is definitely in our future !!! i love uuuu 🫶🏻

[sungtaro]

happy weekend eve sleepover eri <3 this is fun (& doesn't have to be kpop, up to you!) 🎵
