#or insert shit head actor here

[thelurkershideout]

This is a reminder that the actor that plays your favorite character is not that character. It does not change who your favorite character is when their actor turns out to be an asshole. Actors frequently do not share the values of their characters. Nor do they make an attempt to learn from their characters.

Sometimes a character would HATE the actor who plays them, and we can still love and appreciate the character.

[hunting night] nct jaehyun

warnings: unprotected sex, creampie, fingering, blowjob

words: 1625

You ran as fast as you could, laughing at your friends screaming, cussing at the scare actors. you found a place to hide when you felt your legs getting numb; just for a little. you were trying to catch your breath when a tall figure started walking towards you. 

— I'm just taking a small break, —  You said, sitting on a dusty couch. you didn't care, your clothes were dirty from earlier when your friend made your trip and fell when the “hunting”  started. 

The actor didn't say anything, he just kept approaching you. He were wearing a ghostface mask with fake blood splashed all over it. 

— What? I'm not allowed to be here? I swear I won't take long just... —  You stopped when the actor was towering over you, lifting your face from your chin with his fingers. — I don't think this is part of the play. —  You whispered, not knowing why the actor's touch was so captivating, you couldn't even see his face. 

The actor ran his thumb on your lower lip, softly forcing your mouth open. You complied, licking the tip of his thumb before sucking it. You didn't know who this guy was, but you weren't going to let the opportunity go. You weren't afraid to admit this was a fantasy of yours. You knew it was weird. But it wasn't like you were going to see the actor ever again, so what would be the harm in having a little fun. you only needed to make sure none of your friends saw your. 

— Is there any risk of anyone walking in? —  You asked, clenching your thighs when the actor shook his head. Your hands went to his jeans, struggling a little with the belt and accessories. 

Once his jeans were down,  the actor lifted your face again,  — What? —  The guy pointed at your shirt. You took it off and your bra too, not wasting time to pull the actor's boxers down. 

— Now we're even —  The actor tried his best to not moan when your hand made contact with his half-hard cock. 

You began by stroking him, spitting on it a couple of times to jerking it off faster. After a minute, his cock was not only fully hard, but also red, begging for more than just stroking. You looked up, slowly inserting the actor's cock in your mouth. 

He wasn't big enough for you to choke when all his cock was inside your mouth, and you loved it. You started to move your head faster. The guy threw his head back, grunting and groaning, he became addicted to your mouth in seconds, and when you swallowed around him, he lost control. His hands went to your head, stopping your movements, only for him to fuck your face, getting closer and closer to his release. 

You were touching your naked boobs, pinching on your nipples. The actor pulled his cock out of your mouth, making You laid back on the arm of the couch and entering one hand in your pants and underwear. you were really dripping, making it easier for two fingers to slide in. 

You sighed, grabbing the actor's cock and jerking him off again. He was skilled with his fingers, curling them the right way for you to moan really loud. And by the way you were clenching both his cock in your fist and your pussy around his fingers, he knew you were about to cum, and so he was. 

He moved his hips at the same rhythm as his fingers, feeling how you were getting wetter and wetter, your release slipping from your pussy right to the couch under your. He wasn't much behind, cumming over your stomach and holding his body from falling on top of your, he were already hating the mask, but he wasn't going to take it off. 

— Shit, I've never cum that hard. —  You said, whining a little when the actor took his fingers out.  — Is that... it? —  You asked, not caring if you looked desperate. The actor tilted his head to the side, straightening his posture.  — That was really good, I promise, it's just... I really want to feel you inside me. —  You massaged his sensitive cock softly, making the actor bite his lip under the mask to not let out the whine he was about to. 

Taking advantage of his distraction, you pushed him, making him sit on the couch beside you and straddling him, rubbing your still wet, and also sensitive, pussy on his sock. The actor leaned his head on the back of the couch, loving how eager you were. 

— You don't have any condoms, do you? —  You asked, moving your hips back to forth. The actor shook his head, holding your hips from moving when he felt his tip almost slipping in.  — No, please, I'll move before you cum. —  You grabbed his hands, but of course you didn't have the same strength as him, yet he let you pin his hands back. 

You continued to move your hips, moaning when you felt his tip right on your entrance. He didn't know how, but his hands went back to your hips when he slid in fully. The skin of your thighs and butt were getting squeezed and pulled by his fingers, deliciously hurting you. You whined, adjusting to the intruder before bouncing your hips with his help. No one has ever rode him like that, not with the same desperation and need as your.  He felt his cock slip all the way in. 

You moaned with your eyes closed, biting your lip. you knew you were going to cum again, and he was about to too, because of how fast his hips were moving up to meet your bounces. His fingers were digging into your thighs, making the marks to stay. He was so lost he didn't realize he opened his mouth, letting out breathy moans, but you noticed, taking as a new goal to hear him moan. 

You clenched around him, using his shoulder to keep bouncing. And there he were, a loud and clear moan from him, oh it was so hot, only made you get into a better position to ride him faster, maybe edging him to even talk, but the constant moaning were enough for the moment. 

 — Shit... —  He whispered, grabbing you to slow your down, but he was too weak.  — Fuck... Stop, I'm... I'm going to cum... Ah! —  The actor said, not being able, or actually wanting you to stop. His finger pinched your clit before massaging it, loving how tight he were clenching around him.  — Fuck it —  He groaned, standing up with you on his arms and laying you down without pulling out. 

He hips rammed against your, making your boobs bounce up and down by the strength he were fucking your. 

 — I'm close, fuck! —  You moaned, fingers back on your clit as you felt yourself cumming around him. 

Your legs trembled but you managed to lock them around him, preventing him from pulling out.  — Cum inside me, please, I need it! 

The actor couldn't believe it, but he would be lying if he said it didn't turn him on even more. And with support of the couch, the actor took all his strength and rammed against you, throwing his head back when he started to cum. It was a lot, spilling out as he kept thrusting in you. 

 — Shit, it keeps coming —  You said, still feeling his cock pump loads and loads of cum inside. After a couple of minutes, the actor pulled out, kneeling down to see his cum spilling out of your pussy. 

After getting dressed, you were still craving one thing, but you knew he would say no. 

 — I know it's ridiculous to ask after... everything, but can you kiss me a little? —  The actor couldn't help his laughter.  — Oh shut up! —  You got close to him   — I'll close my eyes and won't open them until you let me know, I promise.  

The actor tilted his head before sighing and nodding. You hid your excitement as you closed your eyes, waiting for him to make a move. 

Without making a noise, the actor took off the mask and pulled you by the waist, making you giggle. Sowly, he kissed you softly, being careful you didn't open your eyes, he deepened the kiss, tilting his head to intensify the kiss. He rubbed your cheek and neck, making you melt under his fingers. His tongues rapidly pulled in, making your brain go all foggy. But when you wanted more, he pulled back, and even though you wanted to see why he stopped, you kept your eyes closed. It wasn't until some noise scared you, you looked around, finding yourself alone, but the ghostface mask was laying on the couch, besides a stain from the previous actions. You grabbed the mask, finding a business card under it. <Did you have fun? Let's meet up again> followed by an address. 

You smiled and put the business card in your back pocket, taking the mask with you. 

When you found your friends, they were all sweaty and tired. 

 — God, those actors are good, —  Chenle said, throwing himself to the ground. 

 — It were your idea to come —  You said, laughing at your friend 

 — Where the heck were you? I lost you —  Jeno asked, you noticed the mask on your hand  — Where did you get that?

 — I hid to take a break and went back outside but I got lost, I found this on the floor, maybe a scare actor dropped it —  You lied as best as you could. 

 — There weren't scare actors with ghostface masks, —  Chenle said. 

You felt cold sweat from your neck down your spine. Then who the fuck were that guy?

Put an opera in your campaign!

Put an opera in your TTRPG and make a reason why the player characters MUST attend. There are many reasons to do this!

It's fancy so the PCs have to come up with formal wear that their characters would bring to the opera (this is one reason it should be an opera). Let them wear whatever weird shit they want so long as their character LEGITIMATELY believes the outfit is appropriate. Let them get Met Gala with it. Other guests may stare and make snide remarks, but the staff should only offer token resistance if the outfit interferes with the performance or audience, or is dangerous to the people around them.

It forces the PCs into a social situation they may not have the mechanical skills for. Fish out of water stories are lots of fun, especially during the intermission when they have a chance to mingle with the NPCs. Make part of their task at the opera to get to know the wealthy folks in the audience, either generally or specific ones. Even better if they have to get *something* from them (political support, a specific item, information, etc). If things seem to be stalling, here are two tricks to help keep things flowing: a) have someone powerful pointedly insult the most hot headed PC in a very upper class manner. Comments about their outfit and upbringing are classics. This heats things back up as the hot head tries to get violent while the other PCs try to keep the peace, and can lead to a duel the next morning when the dilettante turns out to be a renowned duelist. b) once things have completely stalled or if you need to cut things short (in or out of character), have the intermission end and the audience called back into the auditorium. This can be used as a cliffhanger for whatever was about to happen!

The opera house can be a very interesting location! There's the lobby, auditorium, and possibly concessions, but if the PCs start going where they shouldn't, there's a lot of behind (and under) the scenes spaces for them to explore. Do they go to the changing room and harass (or even replace!) the actors? Maybe they go to the props department and replace a stage knife with a real one! There could be a weirdo living in the basement who is obsessed with the lead actress and plans to kidnap (or rescue?) her. There are all kinds of interesting spaces for plots to happen!

The opera itself is an opportunity to tell the players about the past, present, or even future! What is the plot of the opera? This is key information! The opera will be telling a story that is important to the majority of the audience. It could be about the past of the nation (mythical or historical). Maybe it's about events the PCs witnessed themselves but told from a different point of view than theirs and this might be unflattering towards them or those they care about. You can even foreshadow future plot points by having the play be a fiction that thematically or narratively parallels later parts (or even the next) of the story arc. If there's a great evil that's going to return, you can combine the past AND the future by describing the terrors of the "defeated" evil, then later show those signs happening as hints that the evil returns!

There are some great examples of how an opera (or play if you must) can be inserted into a story to great effect. The Ember Island Players episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender recaps the entire show from the perspective of the antagonist Fire Nation.

Final Fantasy 6 has a famous opera scene where one of the heroes has to replace an actress who has been threatened with being kidnapped by the mysterious man whose help they need! The hero must then remember her lines while the rest of the party protects the show from getting derailed by monsters.

These are just a few ways that you can use an opera in your TTRPG campaign and I highly recommend giving it a whirl!

20 Questions for Fic Writers

A big ol' fuck you to @rmd-writes for the tag xoxo

1. How many works do you have an AO3? Lol. Lmao even. 289.

2. What's your total AO3 word count? 914,620 on AO3, but that includes co-writes as well as things I've podficced where the fic and pod are in the same work. My actual personally-written wordcount, per my Batshit Spreadsheet, is 771,819.

3. What fandoms do you write for? Mostly RWRB these days, though most of my back catalogue is Schitt's Creek. Also The Pairing and various other things scattered about.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Kinda think that I might be his type aka Alex and Bea fake date coming in at the top spot, which will never not bewilder me. Don't get me wrong, it's a lovely fic!! But I am always surprised that it was a few hundred more kudos than:

With so much of my heart (that none is left to protest), the Much Ado actors AU. My magnum opus, my beloved.

We were supposed to find this - baby's first soulmate AU and my first RWRB fic. The brainrot really took hold with this one lmao.

All the Lonely Starbucks Lovers, in which Henry takes 'open mouth insert foot' to a whole new level.

Warm like the glow that you feel head to toe, the age gap fic with older Senator Alex and younger Prince Henry. This is probably the only one in my top five that really surprises me, considering age gaps are... divisive.

5. Do you respond to comments? Always always always.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? I mean I did write that one MCD fic in Schitt's Creek, though I maintain the other five parts in that 5+1 are in fact angstier than the MCD ending.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Uhhhhhhh, the rest? The Doylist answer is any of my fics where the HEA is literally forever rather than 'till death do us part'; so, the Schitt's Creek afterlife AU and the RWRB zombie!Alex AU. (Is that all? Am I forgetting one?)

8. Do you get hate on fics? Yeah, sometimes. Weirdly, more through tumblr anons than on the fics themselves? A lot of them I just delete, sometimes I'll give them a bit of a public scolding etc. Frankly at this point if you come into my ask box to be a cunt on anon I'm going to assume you have a public humiliation kink and will indulge you accordingly.

9. Do you write smut? Who's to say.

10. Do you write crossovers? I'm more inclined towards a fusion than a crossover (love a good media fusion) but I did write a short RWRB/The Pairing crossover for VoiceTeam.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not to my knowledge.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Nope. Someone did ask recently, so we'll see!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? HEAPS. @ships-to-sail is an ongoing collaborator, but I also did a bunch of "each write a chapter" type collabs in Schitt's Creek. Currently co-writing something truly fucking incredible with @indestructibleheart.

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? IDK if it's a WIP by the strictest definition, but every day the likelihood of the SC kink!verse series being completed slips further away lol.

16. What are your writing strengths? Rae, you're the worst.

Smut, I guess? Giving people new kinks, apparently. Character voice. Also a very specific type of world-building where I explain nothing because the characters already live in that world and let y'all infer how it works, which came up a LOT on one of this year's Kinktober fics in particular and led to my spouse saying "okay so you're basically the Brennan Lee Mulligan of tree fucking", which is sure not a sentence I expected to ever be directed towards me, but here we are.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Anything original, apparently. Good thing I didn't quit my job to be a writer or anything OH WAIT.

(In all seriousness, though, I am genuinely shit at, like, plotting. And action sequences.)

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? If it makes sense for the character, sure! I'm enlisting someone who speaks it for anything more complicated than, like, a pet name - I've seen what Google Translate tries to spit out for my second language and therefore don't trust it lmao.

19. First fandom you wrote for? terf queen mcgee's property.

20. Favourite fics you've written? The RWRB fic specifically based on the episode The Husbands of River Song from Doctor Who. Hands down the best thing I've ever written.

I also fucking LOVED the Much Ado actor AU. My love letter to Shakespeare and theatre and queer joy.

💡 Au idea Ramble! 💡

Why did I just think of a au of Binary Star Hero, being a sorta like Bendy and the ink machine/Poppy playtime type universe.

I’ve thought of it for quite awhile.

Ok! Here’s how I pictured it.

Ray was works with a big shot company, that has like both brand for kids, and sorta tv show type stuff. So when looking for a voice actor for their new release (that being Binary Star) he was told he’d be a temporary cast for the character, only for him to be the official voice actor/employee for the company.

The Mc, worked for the company up until it shut down, due to unknown circumstances. I would think him and Mc would met during one of the other projects for the company, soon turning into a friendship to work crush for the both of them. (Any of you guys watch Fall Guy? A movie about a stunt man?) So when he is given a permanent job as the voice actor for Binary Star, he’d complain about being nagged for certain lines weren’t more “enthusiastic” or “confident” enough. Ray would jokingly play a part for the Mc to make them laugh, distracting them from a rough day, or just to joke around about his part for the “project”. So he’d soon plan some coffee dates with the Mc, and just outings. So when one day he doesn’t show up. Mc starts to worry, because he usually isn’t late unless he calls or texts that something has come up. So to completely ghost them…. Is considered odd.

Now let’s cut to the chase, what am I getting at?

Ray…. Dies due to being pushed down a stairwell. It’s a long one to. His head cracked open, but someone rushed him somewhere. His shady boss took the chance to not only “heal” him… but to turn him into something else.

See where I’m going?

He became Binary Star

So to say he was horrified was an understatement, he didn’t consider this normal, his boss was pleased with the results. However he was not, (I mean…. Who would?) He would be observed, and experimented till the day the company officially shut down. So on the day things went down, he was still in containment. It was only thanks to a mysterious person that let him out after a long time.

“What would he be used for?”

😐 Keep up!

Remember when I said poppy playtime and Bendy and the Ink machine? Remember the large spaces they had even though the surface looked way smaller? Yeeeeaaah! There was obviously an orphanage! Full of children. Ray would be forced to look after some if not all of them along with the others 👀 (I’m saying others to give ideas.) soon eventually seeing one kid odded out from the rest for something they couldn’t help. 👏 A disability. 👏 I know it seems cruel, but let’s be honest, this is the real world. So when he grows a connection with the kid, he had no idea how far his Boss was going to go, for his “Passion Projects”. His boss would threaten the kid if he didn’t obey, not wanting an innocent child, a defenseless child to die because of him. He obeys. Only for the kid to have all checks for a future “Passion Project”. (I’m not spilling.)

Ok, ok. Enough rambling. You guys are probably asking….

“Sage! How does the story take off?”

Well, I kinda Mixed both Bendy and Poppy Playtime together. Except the letter says this.

-

Mc, there is something you don’t know. [Insert company] has secrets you have yet to uncover.

He is alive.

If you want to know the truth, come to the company where heros come alive.

-[Smugged Name]

-

So instead of some random ass person sending weird letters, it’s more upfront in saying.

“Hey, I need help uncovering some of this, and I know you’re the right person to help.”

Because the Mc would see and meet Ray but in a different way, and would eventually stumble upon the anonymous person, and uncover the truth. Despite many who have kept silent over the years.

Why did they keep silent?

Are they apart of this?

Who is anonymous?

Who pushed Ray?

What.

Is.

This.

Mystery?

Bro I’ve been making lore for this Au nonstop. Writing it down here since I know I will not remember. My memory is total shit.

However, what you guy think about this au, is up to you guys. I can keep up with the au’s just like you guys.

😈 You guys underestimate my power…. 😈

Hope you enjoyed the idea. (Don’t know if I should make a fanfic about it.)

Hope you guys enjoyed my rambles haha!

[zaptrap]

Seeing that you've been here since 2012 is INSANE like you've witnessed it all huh. You've seen probably SO many weird and crazy things in this fandom like man that's so cool for you I feel...

ive def seen and participated in a lot of dumbass bullshit over the years LMAO. although notsomuch during the skybound-to-seabound era cuz i'd lost interest for a bit

Random shit I remember off the top of my head (plz feel free to fact-check):

deviantart era: (2012-2013)

that bright green ninjago ask meme

like, literally everybody making self-insert purple ninjas (sometimes orange, teal, or rainbow) and shipping them with their fav ninja

everyone making their own genderbends of the ninja. cole was almost always called nicole or colette lmao

people also naming their accounts (name)-the-ninja (or "teh-ninja", since this was 2012)

there's a non-zero probability that if you were in the fandom during the season 1 era, you're a furry now

naruto crossovers

half-snake ninja aus.........wonder who uh......who could've done that.....heheh (me) (that was my whole deal pre-nindroid!jay lmfao)

everyone posting like, doll-maker things they made of ninjago? especially dragon ones

(me) posting leaked screenshots of season 2 eps that i found on the lego wiki or smth lmao. this is also how i found out zane was a robot. i think i kept posting leaks when i moved to tumblr

legends of chima releasing and i thiiink it was supposed to be a ninjago replacement? like, legitimately? though a lot of people weren't happy about it. "furry gang drug wars" was a phrase used a lot lmfao.

tumblr era (2013-2016 for me) (may overlap with dA era)

everyone losing their minds over the shirtless ninja in ns2 lmfao

that one video of kirby marrow (rest in peace) saying cole was 14

that other vid of like, behind the scenes and it was the ninja's actors but like in-universe? it's where "cole bucket" comes from

also some behind the scenes vid with the actual voice actors lol

thinking back on this, im like 100% sure it was bullshit but when the end of rebooted aired, there was a rumor going around about fans being so upset over zane's death that they carved a snowflake on their stomachs. lots of people were freaking out lmfao

the rise and fall of "fucknoshittyninjagoOCs" (ashamed to say i heavily participated in harassing this blog even if i rlly didnt like the premise.........)

maypong

lots of tension with instagram cuz of all the art reposts. like. tons of reposts. i remember someone blocked me when i said to take something down but then unblocked me the same evening and apologized LOL so

roleplay twitter accounts (twitter was kinda not-as-a lot at the time)

nindroid!jay of course. its so old there was an update that was made in flash lmfao...

absolute fucking shitloads of AUs and headcanons. i dont think this has changed much but like. there were so many lmfao. entire threads

actually there's too many fucking AUs. im scrolling through my main blog and i cant fuckin find anything cuz ITS ALL THESE STUPID AU THREADS THEY AREN'T EVEN LIKE DEEP LMAO

ask-all-the-ninjagians

the absurd screenshot redraws i did. like they were super stupid lmfao. icr which blog they're on but they're on my comp still at least

ninjagians just. being a term used at all lmao

the ninjago fan-tournament during ns4. people would draw/write about their ocs doing whatever prompt was posted and then everyone came together to defeat a big bad snake man

tbh i started naturally losing interest during ns5, and then VERY QUICKLY dropped the show (and therefore fandom) when skybound came out lmao............... so i dont really remember a lot from this era and everything after

and now im back :D

i hope this is insightful! xD

[rapunzellovesbooks]

Lolll that's what gets me, the amount of self-inserting people do with Nicola is scary tbh and I hate it for her bc it means that if she ever does anything wrong or something that others criticize her for all her crazy stans who are particularly obsessed with Jake go insane.

Like truly this is one big psychological experiment. Some people built up this story in their head about Luke and Nic's relationship and they use Nic as a self-insert, so the minute Luke stepped out with Antonia all of their hearts collectively got broken. So Luke becomes this evil man who in their eyes will forever be the bad guy no matter what he does. Which can I just say is the most insane thing because now we know Nicola was also dating someone and most of the shit Luke got for dating a girl 8 years younger than him when Nic is dating someone fucking 13 years younger, like dude they're doing the same thing yet Luke is the horrible person? Neither of them deserve the hate.

Oh but then Jake swoops in, and they view him as this knight riding in on the white horse to save Nicola and love her (cough cough themselves) and THAT is why they are so obsessed with Jake and Nic. It literally has zero to do with him, it could've been any guy and they would've been obsessed. Jake is young, he is only 25, and he is beyond lucky that Nic is using her platform to help him, but lets not sit here and pretend people like him because he's some famous actor, he's pretty unknown. Not saying he won't have the opportunity to gain notoriety in his own right but any kind of recognition and "fans" he has for the most part is solely because of Nicola.

[pinkypromisepascal]

get to know your moots!

6 Months-Part Two// t.c.

Warnings: coming off of a sedative, cursing, abduction, very very brief mention of violence and rape (not by Timothee!)

Mature 18+ readers only please!

A/N: It’s a bit long, so grab a snack or something while you read haha

The last thing Cameron could remember was walking down an alley, and she was faced with some stranger. That was it.

Now, she woke from a deep sleep in some strange room. It sunk in that she had been abducted, and she was nearly crippled with fear. She ached with anxiety. Who had taken her? What did they want?

Eventually, she was able to get up from the bed. She steadied herself on her feet. Her vision was almost totally blurred. She blinked over and over to try and see clearly. The room was rather large, with minimal, yet still inviting decor. She found the door and pounded on it ferociously with her fists.

Not long after she first hit the bedroom door, she saw footsteps in the crack of light underneath the door. Next, she heard keys being inserted and turning in the lock. She waited for the footsteps to go back the way they came, and then she cautiously opened the door.

It dawned on her that this house was enormous. She worried that she would get lost, but then again, she had no idea where she was, or where she was going. She ended up in a room with nice furniture and a grand fireplace. The warmth from the flames met her skin, and for a second, she felt a bit of comfort.

She looked up and stopped in her tracks at the sight of a movie poster framed on the wall. It was of the film Dune.

........

Timothee put Cameron in a chair nearby in the den. She had fainted.

She woke a few minutes later. She sunk back into the chair, trying to get as far from him as she could. "What the fuck is this? Why am I here?"

"You are not in any danger, okay? I need you to believe that. I do not wish to harm you. Please just let me explain things to you."

"Get to it, asshole." she said, trembling with anger.

Timothee stood up, taking a few steps, choosing his words precisely in his head before stopping in front of the bright, crackling fireplace.

"This past year has been mentally tormenting for me. I had a failed work venture, and worse, I lost my grandmother, who I loved more than anything in the world. Everything was just piling on top of one another, and I felt like a fucking ghost floating through my life." He inhaled sharply before his next statement, "But then I saw you. It was love at first sight. It was something I had never experienced before."

"I found out who you were," he continued, "and I read your books. I fell in love with the way your mind works, Cameron. You brought me back to life. And I don't want that to go away, ever. I needed to find a way to make you mine."

Cameron sat silently in the chair, listening to him, but not growing sympathetic in the slightest. "I'm not an object. You cannot own me. You think that just because you're some hot shit little actor with millions that you can kidnap me and then I'm all yours? No fucking way, you bastard." She spit venom with every syllable.

Timothee took note of her fierceness but was not yet deterred. "I didn't think that. Which is why I'm giving you the chance to fall in love with me. I won't force it. I want you to come to me on your own, because you want to."

"But I have my own life! My boyfriend will be looking for me, I have family and friends, I have a job! You can't do this; I don't need love from you."

"Hm," Timothee took his phone out of his pocket and after a few seconds, he showed the screen to Cameron. There were explicit photos of her boyfriend with other women. "He doesn't deserve you." he said plainly.

Tears rolled down Cameron's face. She didn't even realize she was crying. It was devasting knowing that her boyfriend had been cheating on her. But the more intense feeling was the hatred she had for the man in front of her. "Fuck off." she said, before launching out of the chair and running.

Timothee took off right after her, catching her in his arms, he said, "Cameron, I won't hurt you. I won't do anything without your permission. Not until you want me." He held her firmly as she struggled with him. "I'll do anything to make you fall in love with me."

He put his hand on her face, making her look at him. "You have six months. If you don't love me by then, I will let you go."

“Fuck you!” she grumbled, running away from him again.

She made it further this time, as he was caught off guard. But his damn long legs made it easy for him to catch up and stop her.

“You should stop this.” he warned. “You don’t even know where you are. You don’t know your way around this house.” He put her up against the wall, holding her there and string dead into her fiery eyes. “I swear on my grandmother that you are more than safe. You will be taken care of.”

“My family will be looking for me.” she huffed.

“We got your phone, we let everyone close to you know that you’ve accepted a job offer in L.A., a six-month trial. You will get your phone and laptop back when the time is right.”

Cameron pushed him away, “Who is we?”

“I have people.” Timothée said.

“Mr. Chalamet, your meeting is in just a few minutes.”

They both looked over at the woman who entered the room without either of them knowing.

"Cam, this is my assistant. She will be here to help you if you need anything." Timothee said.

She was quick to speak back, "It's Cameron, I'm not a five-year-old, do not call me Cam."

Timothee grinned at Cameron, then looked at his assistant, "Take her back to her room. She needs some more rest."

Timothee departed, and the assistant said, "Okay, let's go, Miss Reese."

Cameron rolled her eyes, turning and walking in the direction in which she was being led. "You're a woman helping a man imprison another woman. How could you do that? Especially in this day and age?"

"Oh, I wouldn't think of it like a prison at all. Mr. Chalamet isn't a violent or malicious person. He has admired you for quite some time now." she stopped in front of a door, "He's a good person, you'll see." She then opened the door, letting Cameron in.

"This is such bullshit." she spat as she walked in.

"Get some rest. Breakfast will be served in the morning. He wishes for you to join him then.”

Cameron rolled her eyes at the idea of sitting down for a meal with Timothee.

......

It was mostly a sleepless night, but she managed to get a couple of hours of rest. The room was somewhat cozy and the bed was king sized and soft with a thick comforter, so it wasn't totally unpleasant.

When she opened her eyes, there he was. Timothee was sitting in a chair just a few feet from the bed, with his eyes on her. "Jesus, you creep!" she yelled at him, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. "How long have you been watching me sleep?"

"Oh, not long, like five minutes.” Timothée was evidently nervous, being with her in person was surreal after admiring her from afar for so long. “Sorry, I didn't want to scare you. I just wanted you to have your clothes and stuff, so I had them brought in. Breakfast is almost ready." he stood from the chair, "You'll smell the food, so you won't have trouble finding the kitchen, the dining room is nearby there." Timothee brushed his hands on his jeans awkwardly before nodding at her and leaving the room.

Cameron looked down at the floor, seeing a few boxes and recognizing her belongings. She figured it was of no use to protest, her family had been told some lie and she had no way of contacting anyone. She was hungry anyway. She got out of bed, picked out some clothes for the day, and got out some toiletry items to freshen up with.

Timothee was right about the food, the way it used her senses, specifically her nose of course, to rope her in the direction of the kitchen. It smelled divine.

"Oh, good morning, Miss Reese. You look nice, I'm sure it was a relief to have some of your own things?" a middle-aged woman greeted her when she arrived in the kitchen. She looked like someone's sweet granny.

"Yeah, it was. Um, who are you?"

"Forgive me for not introducing myself, dear, I'm Mrs. Davis. I'm a housekeeper-slash-chef-slash whatever I'm needed to be. I just fill in wherever needed." the older woman had a little laugh and Cameron smiled kindly. "I'll show you to the dining room. Mr. Chalamet is already in there."

Cameron followed Mrs. Davis, and was met with a full, colorful breakfast spread: eggs, bacon, biscuits, waffles, orange juice, coffee; so much food that she didn't know where to put her eyes. It felt like forever since she'd had something to eat. She was so hungry that she had to stop herself from actually salivating. Then she saw him at the end of the table.

Timothee stood when he saw her walk in. He walked down to the other end of the table and pulled out the chair for her to sit. "Please have a seat." he said, his voice was soft and welcoming.

Cameron sat in the chair, not quite fazed by his gentlemanliness. She grabbed the seat, scooting the chair in for herself. She didn't want his help. She made that clear to him.

Mrs. Davis left the room and Timothee resumed his position at the opposite end of the table. "I hope you were able to get some rest. You look-"

"So, I guess you're acting as if you're me texting all of my loved ones that everything is fine. Are they asking any questions? Are they worried about me?" she asked as she took it upon herself to start spooning some food onto her plate.

Timothee cleared his throat, "Uh, yeah I've got people working on that. Some of your friends and family congratulated you on the new job and wished you safe travels."

"You have people for everything." she pointed out in annoyance and took a bite of scrambled egg.

"That comes with having some money to hire a staff in your home."

"Too bad money didn't buy your happiness, Mr. Chalamet." she said in a snarky tone. "Then I wouldn't be here."

He chuckled humorlessly at her remark, "Well, speaking of buying things, I'd like to take you out shopping, so you can complete your wardrobe for your stay here, if you like."

"You make it sound like it's my choice."

"I don't wish to control you, Cam."

"That's not my name." she snapped, cutting him off.

He ignored her comment, continuing, "But I think for your sake, you could maybe think of this as an adventure. The more that I begin to trust you, God willing, you will get your devices back. I want you to enjoy yourself here. Maybe you could even write, I hope you find some inspiration while you're here. Sorry, I'm rambling, I know. I-uh find it hard to control myself around you."

"Are you trying to justify your actions?"

"No." he said, genuinely.

"I really hate people like you, ya know? People that think the world owes them something instead of accepting that life is a little tough sometimes-"

"I know that what I've done is wrong!" Timothee screamed.

Cameron was taken aback and silenced. It was a shock to hear him yell.

"I'm sorry." he said softly, composing himself.

She could tell then how troubled he was on the inside, it was written all over his sullen face. She could practically feel the tenseness from across the room as she noticed that his hands were balled into fists.

"I will take care of you. You have free roam of the mansion. I will have guards at every exit until I know that I can trust you. The staff and I will accommodate any want or need that you have."

Cameron remained quiet, fully listening to him. She began to think that at least she wasn't chained in a dark, cold room with no food or water. She wasn't being beaten or raped. This situation definitely was not ideal, but she realized that she had been brought into a life of luxury.

"Please, Cameron, just give me a chance. I ask nothing else of you."

Oshi No Ko Chapter 151 - My Thoughts/Analysis

It’s another setup chapter but we’re still in the beginning of a new arc so that’s to be expected. As always, spoilers for Oshi No Ko Ch 151 below.

The chapter starts with what I can only describe as the narrative glazing Kana’s acting skills. Aside from the fact that it shows that she’s recently premiered in that movie that Shima directed, it really isn’t necessary. The timeline of this manga has always been stuck in some nebulous mess of uncertainty for long enough that it could have been inserted anywhere within the last few chapters or so with ease.

Of course this entire montage of showing how good Kana’s acting ability actually is would ring a lot more true if she didn’t whore herself out to Shima in order to get a role. Much as I dislike how that entire situation went for Kana—and so much of that small mini arc in general—it undercuts Kana’s skills as an actor if her big break was because of Shima taking pity on Kana. Akane and Ruby were able to secure acting jobs without going to those lengths and were able to reach greater heights of popularity without it, so why can’t Kana achieve those same heights without couch casting?

Now that I think about it, I don’t think we’ve actually seen Kana get a role through her own efforts alone. The Sweet Today role was because Kaburagi was taking advantage of Kana in general as an actor; her role in Tokyo Blade was because he wanted to play both Kana and Akane off of each other, and even her role in the movie was because Kaburagi pulled some strings to get her on board. Even the intermission that focused on Kana and Akane basically reeked of industry nepotism, and I don’t need to reiterate what Kana was about to do to secure a role from Shima.

My thoughts on Kana’s acting ability aside, we settle on Kana and Aqua’s “date”. Kana wearing her old uniform even after she’s graduated is uh—a choice. That’s certainly some form of cosplay.

Aqua being surprised that this entire meeting is a date is—well. Kana I think if you want to actually make a play for Aqua you need to actually tell this shit to him beforehand. As far as he knows this is a casual outing with one of his friends. I expected her to do something a bit different when faced with the prospect of actually wooing Aqua, more specifically trying to actually take steps to woo him. Maybe I gave Kana too much credit. Akane’s manipulations aside, she hasn’t intentionally taken many steps to actually steer Aqua into considering her as a romantic partner in the series.

The baseball scene??? Now that’s a callback. I’m starting to see where Kana is heading with this whole mess. While Kana may look back at that time as a casual moment between two like minded people, it’s also the time where Aqua tried to vent some of his frustrations of his own Issues(™) and Kana quite easily rebuked them in favor of talking about romantic prospects. After that encounter, it doesn’t escape my gaze that Aqua hasn’t talked to Kana about his own Issues unless heavily pressed.

Oooooh future talk. Kind of hypocritical from the child actor that didn’t take steps to get into college to press people about their own future, but I don’t mean to pick at an old wound since it’s the equivalent of Kana making small talk. And Aqua’s thinking of applying to medical school??? We’d seen some similar implications go through his head during one of the interludes, but it’s nice to finally get some form of confirmation that he’s at least thought about a life after his revenge—even if he is just saying this to get Kana off his back.

Kana unintentionally dredging up Aqua’s trauma with her whole speech here. It’s a sight better than how she intentionally triggered him in Tokyo Blade, but I’m sure that doesn’t make Aqua feel much better. 

Aqua covering his face when confronted with Kana’s insight is cute, I gotta admit. The fact that it hides his star eyes in this panel here is also noteworthy. 

That dream came true when I was five years old. And Kana suffered through a dry spell in spite of it—or arguably because of it. Perhaps she can look at things with hindsight now that she’s managed to carve out a certain niche for herself in the industry but we know that Kana isn’t there just yet. Frill is a perfect example of what someone at the top of the industry looks like, and I don’t think anyone else in our cast aside from maybe Taiki is there just yet. One good movie and a small hint of stardom does not a national actress make. 

In fairness to Kana, her saying that she’s achieved her dream is a very in-character thing for her to do. Time and time again we’ve seen her immaturity and naivete undercut everything she sets out to achieve. Her inability to realize that she was being taken advantage of by Kaburagi in the earlier parts of the manga; the fact that she wasn’t able to remain professional with Aqua when he was avoiding her; her attempts to secure a role with Shima despite knowing his nature full well—the list goes on. If she really thinks that she’s become a national actress after tasting just a hint of success then that just plays into Kana’s faults even further.

I have a new dream now. I want to be the only person you look at. I couldn’t quite help but laugh as soon as Kana said this. Okay Kana, you want to be Aqua's idol? What have you done to actually achieve that? Because you have some gigantic shoes to fill in the form of Ai and Rubysarina. Her entire arc throughout the story has been towards actually being a successful actress, so this pivot leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I don’t even like Kana as a character and I’m complaining that this entire interaction did her dirty! 

The fact that Aqua didn’t even catch Kana’s baseball when she’s said this has to be some of the most godawful hit you over the head symbolism I’ve even seen from the series. There are college writing students out there that wouldn’t pull stuff like this even if they were held up at gunpoint! You’d think that an actual published series like this would have editors that strike this shit down but apparently not.

It’s not because of the fact that this metaphor it’s simple that irks me as much as it does. It’s the fact that it’s so obvious that it basically spells out that Kana’s attempts at trying to become Aqua’s star are going to be flushed down the toilet. In terms of being an idol, Kana hasn’t done anything else to engender Aqua’s devotion. As Aqua’s friend, she’s certainly become an important aspect of his life, but not so much in terms of being an idol. She does not inspire or drive Aqua’s motivations in the way an idol should—at least in my opinion.

What a fucking chapter. I’m just glad there isn’t a break next week so we can quickly see how this mess is going to turn out. At this point I just want some goddamn consequences to happen to Kana so having her lose Aqua basically sitting on her hands for the entire series is some good fucking karma. Crying and bitching about one’s love life constantly is absolutely not the characteristic of someone going to win it all as the series reaches its endgame.

I was actually surprised that there was so much talk about Kana grabbing death flags in this chapter. I mean, really, it’s like everyone forgot that most of the main cast has contractual immortality until after the interviews. Even then, Kana really hasn’t been important enough to the story since Tokyo Blade to justify any purpose of her dying aside from shock value. Even if there was something like that planned out for the next few chapters, the tension is going to be undercut knowing that most of the main cast is going to survive without any issue.

Once again the elephant in the room has to be Ruby. It’s kind of difficult to root for Kana in this instance—even besides all the reasons I’d listed so far—because we still don’t know what Aqua thinks about the kiss in Chapter 143. Anything regarding romance is stuck in a pool of indecision since that chapter and it simultaneously undercuts everything the narrative is trying to even do with Kana and Akane’s efforts to woo Aqua while leaving the actual plot of the story on the wayside. I just hope that we’ll be getting a peek into Aqua’s head while we’re unfortunately saddled back in with this romance plotline.

[crazyasstruckfreakselfshipper]

heh hello. you should do rarity, princess cadence and discord for the ask game w julian!!!!!

OKAY. SORRY IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO POST THIS. HI. HIHIHI YAY HI. HI. HFGEJKBRFJLF. OKAY. discordddddddd nyehehehe discord genuinely interacted with bashir in canon. because dicord is based off of a star trek character that discord's voice actor played. and that star trek character interacted with bashir and basically called him a slut and made him be tired and go take a nap. LMAO? so basically discord and bashir interacted yes yay ❤️

Princess Cadance - Does your FO believe in true love? Do you believe in true love? How about love at first sight?

hm. well. bashir is certainly a love at first sight guy. he felt that way with many people before bishop (me). and he felt that way, the love at first sight with bishop, but it was different. he realized he did believe in true love. he had stopped believing in it after his heart had been broken many times, but when he found someone who loved him for him, he realized he hadn’t known true love from the start, and was feeling it for the first time just now. *a missile is launched at my head and i explode into 10000000 microscopic pieces. as a punishment. for being cringe*

Discord - Your FO's personality has been completely flipped around. How do they act now? How would you react? What if you were the one who's personality got flipped? How would you act now, and how would your FO react?

SO THIS IS FUN ACTUALLY. BECAUSE. HE HAS A MIRROR VERSION OF HIMSELF. AND IN THE MIRROR UNIVERSE the characters arent entirely flipped but for some of them i would say they somewhat are? for bashir, i’d say he’s pretty much flipped. or more, the mirror universe brings out some of his bad traits and amplifies them times 10. but at the same time, they do feel very opposites. mirror bashir is mean. hes just a jerk. bashir can be annoying at times but mirror bashir is straight up mean. the real julian would never be like that.

how i would react? well. let’s just say. im not gonna pretend like i’m not into him being mean. because i am. arrest me. but in character? bishop? he’d think it was hot for a second yeah. but would be freaked out and instantly really really miss the real julian. to answer the next part, i think theres definitely a mirror bishop (if there was a mirror ezri (despite it not really making sense) there can be a mirror bishop even if it doesn’t make sense!!!! and ezri never exists in my self insert universe which i have decided is the real and canon universe so!!! yeah!!!) and i think that mirror bishop is deeply attracted and not freaked out by mirror bashir and they love together in weird horrible freaky harmony. yay ❤️ real bashir, non mirror bashir would i think be also freaked out and slightly into mirror bishop. 10 seconds of “damn… okay…” and then the oh shit i need to get out of here im scared. i dont really know what mirror bishop would act like though!!

[annimator]

I’m a week late to the party but OH MY GOD THE DC4 PREMIERE WAS FUCKING AMAZING

(Reaction’s under the cut as always)

• An abandoned Carnival is honestly an AMAZING setting for a reality show lets be real

• ofc this place has harsh weather and all that shit. also poor bird ;-;

• TREVEKKKKKK

• WAIT THEIR COTTON CANDY’S THE SAME COLOR AS THE TEAMS

• Also Derek & Trevor as a whole honestly hit different once you find out they’re based off of DC’s co-creators, who are also married to each other. They really created self-inserts of themselves, made them the hosts of the series, and decided “yo we should make them a couple lol”. im not complaining btw, I think it’s rlly cute :D

• THE WAY THEY LOOKED AT EACH OTHER BEFORE HOLDING HANDS AND MOVED CLOSER TO EACHOTHER OMG

• INTRO TIMEEEEEEE

• YOOOOOOOOO THE CONTESTANTS ALL LOOK SO GOOD AND INTRIGUING

• “Men often underestimate me. They think I’m all beauty and no brains, but when you have to fight this “male-dominated world”, you tend to learn a few tricks” QUEEN SHIT, I LOVE HOW THIS IS THE FIRST LINE WE GET FROM ANY CONTESTANT THIS SEASON

• I can’t take Ted’s monologue seriously considering how many L’s he took this episode lol

• I’m gonna be so hyped for anytime Hannah & Tristan appear on screen and there’s nothing y’all can do to stop me I LOVE THEM SM

• “People have a bad impression of actors on this show. I’m here to prove that Hollywood doesn’t turn you evil, and I’ll win the right way.” YEA YOU GO IVY

• “I don’t look diabolical. I look like the bloody nerd you shove in lockers.” You’re right Spencer lol. Also you’re totally gonna crush on Diego so hard this season, trust me bro

• Trevek casually holding hands throughout the episode implies that everyone knows they’re a couple and everyone’s completely chill with that. Them casually being a background relationship amongst all the chaos (pun intended) is honestly a great direction imo

• Derek calling this season a fresh start honestly feels like he’s talking to the viewers, which is understandable after having the OG casts from season 1 & 2 get their endings during the All Stars finale & the TomJake spinoff. I miss them sm ;-;

• The first challenge is making a shelter? What is this Pahkitew Island? /j

• Idk if anyone else caught this detail, but when Trevor threw the maps towards the contestants, Derek moved his head a little bit. That’s nice :D

• LOGAN’S A DORK, I LOVE HIM

• IF ALESSIO ENDS UP BEING FIRST BOOT YOU WILL SEE ME ON THE NEWS

Edit: god fucking damnit

• Also him observing a snail, only to crush it to see the color it creates is a mood. Everyone backing away from him afterwards is also funny as hell lol

• “Hi there! I’m Isabel. Nice to meet you :D” “Okay, if you don’t mind me asking, what’s a nun doing out here?” Ted said what the fandom was thinking when the cast photo dropped lmao

• Also their dynamic is already amazing. “His words won’t help us here, sister” is genuinely one of my favourite quotes from this episode

• Oooooo more looks into the contestants personal lives. I dig it >:D

• Idk why, but Richard fainting as blue team arrived to their campground was kinda hilarious to me

• ANARISSA INTERACTION WHO CHEERED

• “Military?” “Hopefully. You?” “Farthest from it. Model.” “Obviously. You’re very pretty.” I NEED TO BE SEDATED BRO

• “Whenever someone tells me not to do something, it means they’re usually keeping it for themselves.” Hard cut to Ted taking an L after ignoring Marissa’s warning

• Logan’s so pure omg. His bond with Richard’s rlly cute and I know damn well the fandom (myself included) is gonna BAWL when one of them ends up getting eliminated

• NATALIA’S SO STRONG WTF. QUEEN SHIT

• “I’ve noticed our team has more women than men.” “Ugh, thank god right?” mood

• Damn we already got alliances? This totally won’t backfire :>

• Lynda your family’s ugly lmao. Also she’s probably gonna be a villain

• “Where’s the italian fellow?” Nintendo whenever they need money

• Logan worrying that Alessio ditched them to look for the totem, only for it to cut to Alessio painting smth is such a funny cutaway

• “The early bonding doesn’t concern me. The deconstruction of civilization… hahahaho! Now that’s something that can be put to a canvas!” HE’S JUST LIKE ME FRFR

• HANNAH’S BEING BEST GIRL AS ALWAYS I LOVE HER

• Also there’s something really nice about Amelie casually implementing some french words into her dialogue. I think its really neat, and as someone that did take french, I’m able to understand most of it :D

• I’ve seen some people ship Hannah & Benji together, and although I do see where they’re coming from since they’re both asian, I honestly just see them as friends. TRISTANNAH ALL THE WAY BABYYYYYY

• “I’m all about giving good head.” BENJI-

• I GENUINELY WAS NOT EXPECTING HIM TO SAY THAT OH MY GOD HE’S SUCH A BOYFAILURE I LOVE HIM

• DIEGO HELPING OUT SPENCER AFTER THE BEAM FELL ON HIM, AND ASKING IF HE’S OKAY? OMG THE SHIPPING CRUMBS

• ZAIVY CRUMBS LETS GO

• TRISTAN, ZAID, & IVY ARE GONNA BE AN ICONIC TRIO I CAN SEE IT FROM A MILE AWAY. Also them talking about designing the shelter was really nice :D

• “Ooh! Quite the mind reader, isn’t he?” “Oh, thanks! Though… I’m actually non-binary” THEY SAID IT. IT’S FULLY CONFIRMED AND STATED IN THE SHOW LETS GOOOOOO

• AND THE SCENE IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING WHERE IVY EDUCATING ZAID ABOUT THE TERM AND HIM BEING CHILL ABOUT IT? OH MY GOD THIS SCENE IS LITERALLY EVERYTHING I EVER WANTED AS A NON-BINARY PERSON

• Ivy’s confessional following this and her backstory’s honestly my favourite so far. She’s definitely a parallel to Riya since she doesn’t want the game (or hollywood for that matter) to change who she was. We all know that the same didn’t happen with Riya anyways

• “The industry is so competitive and nasty, it’s easy to look over the genuine people in your life” I immediately thought of Riya when I first saw this scene considering what happened between her, most of the friends she made during DC, and ESPECIALLY Connor

• IVY’S A THEATRE KID I LOVE HER. Also she joined to prove she can do stuff without her parents help is honestly some great motivation imo

• HANNAHHHHHHH

• Also Amelie slays so hard. Her design’s really growing on me

• ONE OF THE RATINGS FOR AMELIE’S COMPANY SAYS “INSTANT CHOICE EVERYTIME I GET MARRIED” LMAOOOOO

• Alessio getting distracted by a butterfly is mood (said butterfly gave me kirby & qsmp flashbacks, but that’s not important rn)

• I was not expecting Natalia & Isabel to have a friendship even before the trailers & the intro dropped, BUT I LOVE IT SMMMM

• Ted takes an L part 2: electric boogaloo

• Diego wants Spencer so bad. DID YOU HAVE TO RAISE AN EYEBROW BRO? JADE KNOWS WHERE THIS IS GOING BY THAT SMUG LOOK ON HER FACE

• BENJI HOW DID YOU LIGHT YOUR ASS ON FIRE LMAOOOOO

• TREVEK CAME ONTO SCREEN HOLDING HANDS I LOVE THEM

• Emily :D

• “She’s so mother!” “Oh, wow! I didn’t know she was your mom!” THIS EPISODE HAD SO MANY FUNNY QUOTES I LOVE IT

• Aw, Trevor & Emily’s friendship’s healing :D

• Emily looks like she didn’t sign up for this shit lmao

• “I just thought it could use a theme!” “The theme being?” “Building new families” TRISTAN ILY

• How the fuck does Tristan sleep criss-cross applesauce

• “Why don’t you lay off, housewife?” DAMNNNNNN

• THE GIRLS ARE FIGHTINGGGGGGGGGG

• I just realized the guy promoting the patreon and reminding the viewer to subscribe is Connor’s VA lol

• “Over here we have the Demansplainer!” “Kind of a dumb name…” “Why do you think it’s abandoned?” lmao

• WAIT TREVEK’S DEMONSTRATING THE CHALLENGE TOGETHER? THATS AWESOME

• ALSO DEREK HOLDING ONTO TREVOR, AND TREVOR GETTING WORRIED FOR DEREK AFTER NOTICING HE LOOKS LIKE HES GONNA THROW UP WAS ADORABLE

• “Can I hold onto you?” “Can you—? What? The coaster’s already holding you!” “Please?” “…Fine.” AWWWWWWW

• Isabel praying the our father while the coaster’s rising is a mood and honestly relatable for people with a fear of roller coasters

• “Woohoo! Yeah! Who’s hyped?” HANNAH IS SUCH A RAY OF SUNSHINE AND I LOVE HER FOR THAT. ALSO LOOK AT HOW TRISTAN’S LOOKING AT HER WITH A SMILE ON THEIR FACE

• Richard forgor lol. Also Alessio just casually lounging like a bored student is a mood. I KNOW I KEEP BRINGING THAT WORD UP WHENEVER I TALK ABOUT ALESSIO, BUT HE’S LITERALLY VIBING BRO. I LOVE HIM

• Also animation’s been kicked up a notch compared to older seasons. All those greetings really paid well! Especially the double ones considering most of them have TomJake kissing lol

• DIENCER’S HOLDING HANDS ON THEIR WAY DOWN THE COASTER

• I love how Anastasia & Alessio are completely unphased by the roller coaster drop lol

• “Thanks to Crocoidile Dundee, I couldn’t see the godamn flags. NOT TO MENTION HE RUINED MY VEST!” LMAO

• Everyone mostly struggling with the flag order reminds me of the All Stars challenge where literally everyone besides Grett (And technically Jake & Ally since they were fighting each other instead of doing the challenge lol) were struggling with a fuckass 9-piece puzzle lmao

• Spencer over here thinking he’s a smartass and taking an L for the team lol

• Zaid & Ivy heading back onto the ride, this counts as Zaivy crumbs trust me bro

• Damn red team wins twice in a row? Noice. Also If ya want my opinion on which team I like the most, I honestly think they’re BOTH great since red team has Tristan & Hannah (they share the title of being my favourite contestants for this season), and blue team has Isabel, Natalia, & Alessio (they’re all close seconds) also they have pink n’ green yuri

• THE POSE DIEGO MAKES ON HIS SLEEPING BAG???

• ALSO FIRST TRISTANNAH INTERACTION LETS FUCKING GOOOO

• Jade & Spencer alliance pog. Diego’s probably gonna join in, and this alliance’ll end up in shambles or is gonna prosper, AND I’M ALL HERE FOR IT >:D

• ANARISSA SITTING TOGETHER >:D ALSO ANASTASIA TRYING TO LOOK COOL INFRONT OF MARISSA. GIRL I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE

• “Even if I dedicate my life to the Lord, I dedicate my body to the algorithm” God tier quote tbh

• “Oh! No…. My parents aren’t catholic” PLOT TWIST

• Seeing all the teams huddled around each other as they read the letter reminded me that A) both teams are equally great in my opinion, and B) I LOVE ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS, I DON’T WANNA SEE ANY OF THEM GET ELIMINATED WHAT THE FUCK-

• “I nominate Isabel!” “Why her?” “Bitch, look at her! She’s our team’s Mother Theresa” NATALIA ILY

• “Yass! Feed the children” THERE ARE SO MUCH GREAT QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

• “Go down the path together to a private booth. You’re both about to make a major decision” THE FUCK IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN. AND THE FUCK IS THE PERSON/THING IN THE TREE

• “After everything, people are probably still thinking, ‘What’s a nun doing here? How is she gonna lie or backstab anyone?’ Well I’m here to win a million dollars! And when it’s all over… I’ll pray for forgiveness” SLAYYYYY

• WAIT THAT’S IT? IM NOT EVEN UPSET, ISABEL’S CONFESSION WAS HONESTLY A GREAT WAY TO END THE EPISODE

• ANYWAYS YEA. THIS IS GONNA BE A GREAT SEASON, AND I’M NOT JUST SAYING THAT BECAUSE OF TRISTAN & HANNAH SLAYING, AND ALL THE SHIPPING CONTENT

Ristretto in Pink (A Huskerdust Fic) Part One

It is strange how quiet one’s home is without anyone else there. The afternoon glow already found its way into my rooms through the fibres of the window-shades, my quiet lightful guests. I finished munching on some scrambled eggs and after sipping the last bit of orange juice, dabbed my lips with a napkin. Work started in a half hour, so I had time to get ready. Despite the limitations from Val, I had a side-gig and just like with Val’s shoots, I showed up with the up-most professionalism. I ain’t gonna fuck around.

              I buttoned my shirt and grabbed my apron and began leaving. Somehow, there was time to do just basic makeup; pink blush, eyeshadow, and a bit of black lipstick for my upper lip. Such a doll. Patting Fat Nugget’s on the head, albeit sleeping, his snores seemed to be my silent farewell for the day. Such a cutie.

                                                                                  ---

              Down the street, Angel passed a radio shop, multiple bars, and soon at Depressio Café. Shit. It was already max capacity and the once quiet ambience was bustling with chatter and coffee machines grinding and pouring away. He quickly rushed into the back, during which he greeted his co-workers, and clocked in.

              The rush lasted what felt like five minutes, but was only an hour and a half. Around four hours left. Angel walked back toward the front of the bar, stocking up the paper cups from what he had grabbed from the back, when he heard the usual ding of the door sensor.

              “Hello! Welcome!” Angel and the rest of his co-workers exclaimed. He quickly hobbled over to the register, fixing up his apron as he tapped onto the touch screen.

              “Whenever your ready, Sir.” He said, watching as this cat fellow eyed the pastry case. The man smelt of booze. The cat scratched his chin and pointed up at the menu.

              “Irish coffee.”

              “We uh…Well I know we’re in Hell but would it surprise you that we can’t make that?” The cat tilted his head, eyeing up the menu again, before replying gruffly.

              “That’s a first. Fine. Just an espresso.” He said as he pulled out his wallet. As Angel put in his order, he felt his heart skip a beat and a heat grow within his breast. The cat was rather handsome. He wore a pair of black suspenders, a small black top hat, playing cards within the rim of the hat, and a nice black and white overcoat and matching pleats. He looked like a magician—an boozey one from his smell—which made him all the more interesting.

              “Two dollars…and a name?”

              “Hm?” The cat pulled out two bills as he looks at Angel with an inquisitive curl of his brow.

              “A name for da order.”

              “Oh. Husk.”

              “Hussskkk…” he sounded out slowly and quietly, typing in the name. He took Husk’s money and smiled a toothy grin, his golden tooth poking out from above his bottom lip. A presentation of honest positivity beamed out of him, from his smile to his inserts of Angel-like Italiano-motifs. He puffed up his chest as he put the money away and waved goodbye to Husk.

“It’ll be on the bar in a moment. Have a nice day!”

              Husk gives a hesitant yet awkward smile back, nodding as he sits down at a booth near the far window. Angel moves from the register and goes to the bar, grinding the beans and preparing his portafilter with now packed in espresso grounds. Husk looked back at the bar ever-so-often as the spider made his order. He recognized him from a lotta posters and billboards, even internet ads: Angel. The Angel Dust. So, the actor has got a side-hustle. Wouldn’t expect it to be this. Yet—I hear he is Italian so, maybe it is nothing too off. Assumptions aside, Husk jumped a bit in his seat when he heard his name called out. He walked over to the bar, seeing Angel placing his drink in a small white ceramic mug.

              “Here ya go.”

              “Thanks, Angel.” Husk said as he grabbed his cup. When he turned around, Angel glanced at his back, seeing the slight puff of his feathery wings hiding beneath that suit of his. Who is this guy?

              Husk sipped at his drink and sighed. It wasn’t half bad. What other skills did Angel have outside of fucking? He watched out the window and rested his head against the wall, occasionally sipping his espresso. Soon, he unknowingly nodded off.

Okay I might actually start writing now, but I think I’ll start off with head cannons for right now because I’m not 100% confident in my writing skills. I know I’m not absolute shit when it comes to writing, but I have noticed that I tend to repeat certain words so I’ll have to work on that 😭

Characters that I might write for:

Peter Maximoff (obviously)

Maybe other characters from the X-men series

Tate Langdon

Luke Cooper (there’s not a lot of fics for him and I’d like to change that 😏)

Jennifer Check

Stu Macher

Charlie Walker

Mickey Altieri

Ethan Landry

Amber Freeman

Jill Roberts

Literally any Ghostface other than Richie, Nancy Loomis, and detective Bailey💀

Also open to writing for other scream characters like Tatum, Dewey, or Sam

Peter Parker (whichever one)

Conner DBH

The Maze Runner characters

Every Wednesday character except for Xavier (sorry, don’t feel comfortable writing for Percy Hynes White 🤷🏾‍♀️)

Stanley Barber (y’all still remember IANOWT?)

And that’s basically it for right now. Also Peter, Tate, and Luke are the only Evan Peters characters I’ll be writing for just for right now because I haven’t finished the other seasons of American Horror Story yet, but maybe in the future I’d probably be interested in writing for characters like Kit Walker or Kyle Spencer. There’s other characters that I wouldn’t mind trying to write for that I haven’t mentioned, but just ask and I’ll give you an answer.

I can write:

Any gendered readers: female readers, gender neutral readers, and male reader

Nsfw: don’t be afraid to request suggestive stuff. I don’t mind writing kinky stuff, but not too kinky like the piss kink or daddy kink bc it personally makes me uncomfortable (however, I’ll allow mommy kinks).

Kinks: Needed a section to put what kinks I allow. I will write for breeding kinks, breath play, bondage, pain kink, knife play, blood kink, dom/sub, degradation, BDSM; whatever, just ask.

Sfw: I’ll write fluff, hurt comfort, angst, any tropes, just whatever. I’m fine with platonic fics.

Semi Dark fics: I like Scream and American Horror Story, so you know there’s going to be some dark fics. I don’t mind prompts where the characters are possessive or obsessive (but not abusive). I also don’t mind writing for Yandere characters.

Poc reader inserts: I’m black, so I’d love writing stuff for black readers as well.

Fandoms: X-men, Wednesday, Scream, Spiderman verse, The Maze Runner series, Detroit Become Human, The Umbrella Academy (that’s it for rn)

I won’t write:

Celebrities/Real People: As much as I find their character’s attractive, I don’t feel comfortable writing for the actor/actress themself. I don’t know them personally, so I don’t feel any interest in writing anything for them.

Guy x male reader smut: it’s not bc of homophobia, it’s simply just because I don’t feel comfortable writing gay smut. As a woman, I just don’t want to make people think I’m sexualizing gay men. The most I’ll do is write suggestive stuff, but I won’t write full on smut.

OC inserts: I strictly write for reader inserts. I won’t be writing anything specifically for one reader.

Shipping: I don’t write for character x character. Nothing against them, I just only have an interest for reader inserts.

Smut for teenage characters: I’m 18, so I will not be writing smut for characters under 18, especially if they are portrayed by literal teenagers. However, for characters like on Wednesday where the characters are portrayed by adults in their 20s and even 30s, if you want smut for them it should be fine as long as they’re aged up to be 18.

These: non-con, step-cest/incest, r4pe themes, drugging, somnophilia, age regression, ddlg, piss kink (squirting’s fine), huge age gaps, race play, pedophilia, etc. Once again, if you’re not sure what kinks I’ll write for, feel free to ask

Traumatic stuff: I will not write things like abuse victim, rape victim, or self harm victim prompts. I will write angst, but I won’t write anything too depressing. I came here for a good time, let me be happy and delusional in peace 😪

Songfics: So random, but I hate when fics have lyrics within them. They confuse me too much and I also find them kind of cringey. I absolutely despise songfics, I’m so sorry babes 😭

[hauntedwizardmoment]

hi I'm sooooo fundamentally obsessed with your party oc lore and i come to you now to ask what the initial forming of the party was like!! what were their initial impressions of each other!! how did they originally form a group of professional adventurers, what was the story there? when did jace meet everyone? what's the early timeline on all the messy relationships and what kicked off the various jace/other party member hookups? did it take aurora a second to develop her grudge against jace and vice versa, or did they have it out for each other on sight? I want all the tea 👀

YAYYYYY IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED omg i literally screamed w joy when i saw this in my inbox last night... preemptively putting this under a cut bc i anticipate it getting long

so to start out i think that jace graduated from aguefort and then went to college. we don’t know a ton about colleges/post-secondary education in spyre aside from a couple of named places in the early eps of FHJY so i took that as permission to just. invent some. jace (in keeping w the idea of sorcery classes as art classes) went to the Arcane Arts Institute which is like, an analog for like. literally any art school in NYC. the student body culture is very nyu tisch (disaffected hipsters and gay people) combined with like, the prestige of parsons or the pratt institute or the school of visual arts. this is jace being like “i’m gonna get out of my shitty hometown and go to the BIG CITY and PROVE myself” 

[also as an aside bc this will likely never make it into a fic. I also made up a school for artificer programs thats called Mordenkainen’s Institute for Technomancy (MIT)]

the only person from his party who’s here is dagbert, who much like ragh is in an athletic program at another university, trying to go pro (he does not, like the majority of college athletes), and he and jace interact briefly in this ficlet, but not much throughout the rest of college. dagbert is busy with his classes and his athletic career, and jace is busy with classes and getting cheated on by guys who play electric bass. 

i think there are like, two other aguefort grads in the party, aurora and peregrine, who are a year and two years ahead of jace respectively, so they didnt interact much but jace does recognize the names. maybe a little unrealistic but like its a small world! two people from my irl high school in florida that had a graduating class of 85 people also moved over 1000 miles away from home to the midwest to work at the same company as i did!! crazy shit!! so there’s a bond there initially from being aguefort grads and growing up in elmville

so like the party is officially Formed by them all working for the council of chosen. like i think theyre all in their early to mid 20s looking for stable work:

jace (22) is like “well it’s this or try to find a fucking wizard to do an unpaid apprenticeship under in fallinel”

dagbert’s (25) athletic career falls through and he needs an alternate plan 

Peregrine (24) and aurora (23) are dating atp, peregrine wants a higher paying job and aurora is looking for a way to travel more for her mission work 

invidia (23) is like an established solo adventurer who’s been looking for a team bc she’s lonely

ysvelde (22) is an out-of-work actor who is about 3 seconds from pulling a patrick bateman style killing spree at the fantasy starbucks she’s working at. she NEEDS to move out of her mother’s house. 

they meet like a few weeks before they get sent out on their first mission as a team for like a “team cohesion” type thing; initially aurora peregrine and jace are like “omg we’re all from aguefort! thats so cool! did you have class with [insert teacher here]?” and jace and dagbert vaguely recall each other, but theyre all trying to be professional atp. but it doesnt take long (like a few days into their first mission) for invidia and jace to become the Party Besties bc theyre like moths to a flame. i think they find out that they like the same bands (in my head. jace and invidia listen to 90s riot grrrl) and hit it off from there. and jace and ysvelde are also bonding super quickly but like. most of that is ysvelde getting way too personal w jace way too quickly bc she finally found someone like her (no sense of identity and desperate to make friends by contorting yourself into whatever you think they’ll like). 

i dont have a suuuuuper solid timeline on the relationship drama bc i wanna keep it open for Extreme Mess potential. HOWEVER. peregrine and aurora’s relationship is SEVERELY strained by having to spend extended time in each others’ proximity without the distraction of anything else they have going on (friends who arent their mutual coworkers, jobs that dont have them working with each other, etc.). and when the relationship drama does start, jace cycles between peregrine (when he’s off-again with aurora) and ysvelde (who is so happy to finally be dating/sleeping with a guy who is actually attracted to women. fun fact about her, every single man she has dated turned out to be gay. the curse of being a straight woman in theater. s/o to kinsey 5 jace, it’s really doing a ton of heavy lifting here) with the occasional one-off thing with dagbert that doesnt involve a lot of emotional investment. 

the whole time jace and peregrine are falling harder for each other but peregrine is also desperate to settle down with someone as he gets older, and views aurora as the only “real” option because could you imagine if he brought jace home?? his parents would kill him! and somewhere in this poor ysvelde is like “jace what if we got married” and maybe in a manic episode threatens to have him eaten by her family of driders if he doesnt go through with it. dont worry it blows over they laugh about it eventually but jace Is afraid for his life briefly. 

NOW. jace and aurora’s whole deal. they kind of have friction right away after the initial recognition of having the same hometown wears off because jace is like “oh aurora is from that part of elmville, full of snobby helio-and-sol worshipping humans who think theyre better than everyone and pass judgment on everyone’s ‘lifestyle choices’ while being super hypocritical” and aurora is like “jace is an arrogant, hedonistic, heretical prick who’s way too comfortable making passes at my boyfriend and throws the fact that he gets special treatment from literally everyone we meet because he’s attractive and charismatic in everyone’s faces” and it slowly builds from there. but the buildup is slow, until ofc it’s not (peregrine comes clean about the fact that he’s been sleeping with jace for years during their breaks bc he feels like he cant propose to aurora without telling her about it, he doesnt want to go into a marriage with a guilty conscience)
