The Story of Us: Chapter 4

pairing: logan sargeant x famous!fem!singer

summary: logan and you have been keeping a secret from everyone but it might be time for it to come out

a/n: while I do my best on most of my works to be race neutral, this one is very very very self indulgent 🤷🏻‍♀️

a/n2: this is part 4 of 5, which will be released when they’re finished and I’m using pretty much everything from Taylor Swift

a/n3: I still don’t understand instagram so - no one but those that follow you can see a private accounts comments (even on a public post). Also I still hate twitter so I’ve replaced it with Bluesky.

a/n4: Also timelines? Never heard of them. This is set in 2024 but I’ve moved Miami to before Australia and changed some of the results of races.

a/n5: sorry this one took so long! Been dealing with some stuff

user19: I’m guessing the Logan and y/n relationship reveal is happening very very VERY soon. Tonight all of y/n’s outfits were of the blue variety (excluding, of course, the reputation bodysuit and Red combos). I’m guessing she wore blue to publicly support Logan (especially after that shit vowles pulled in Australia). My guess is this weekend — after tonight she has a 5 day break (enough time to jet over to Italy for Sunday’s race and still make it back for the start of the New York shows)

[acid-ixx]

They aren't finished but I wanted to give you these! They're all WIPS so so far. Some are a bit older and you can tell what the newer ones are that I just made right now.

Thank you for posting a new chapter. It was an amazing read and I just loved it so much! Still trying to find those song references 😂

chapter spoilers and drafts (again &. again)

— masterlist ! ; chapter 4 ; ash's commisions

OH MY GOD THIS IS SUCH A BLESSING??? BANGER AFTER BANGER AFTER BANGER I SWEAR 💞

ash, you have always provided my little fanbase for my series so much food for thought, this is absolutely beautiful in every way. i literally don't care if they're wips or unfinished because either way you always make do with what i write, descriptive or not. i love your artstyle and how soft you draw the mc and how handsome conner is (i literally showed your art off to all my friends). you're so talented and i wish to reciprocate all the efforts you've done for this series 😭

i'm serious. from your portrayal of the mc, to them flying with conner, you never once disappoint anyone.

because of this, i'd like to leak some parts of my story from chapter five and beyond 💕! thank you so much for this, and i hope my yapping below suffices.

major spoilers below the cut!

the graduation photo! i have something planned with that, and i'd delve so much deeper (soon) with just how much a single photo can influence bruce's line of thought once he discovers that picture frame. love how happy mc is in the photo because, for me, it symbolizes them growing up (quite literally) and acknowledging a new path in life, alongside only finding alfred as their only father figure compared to bruce.

you consider yourself reserved, and prefer your life living within the confines of privacy and protection from media exposure. your mother always told you: better safe than sorry once; right after you've asked her about why you can't seem to find personal information about your father when she helped you search him up occasionally.

all the questions you ask her about the lack of your father's preferences — because you merely wanted to know more about him beyond the stories she told you! — she rebutted with a soft smile, a kiss on your head, and an explanation.

she'd warn you about the dangers of media exposure, about how your father and her prefer to keep their relationship a secret, and how too much cameras and paparazzi flashes can blind you.

she said that someone's perception of another person could be ruined once their deepest secrets are revealed. that's why your papa isn't seen beyond the doors of the manor he resides in; because people are attracted to mystery and allure.

hence why she'd restricted you from the usage of any devices within your household during your childhood, other than the excuse of having no money to afford it.

and you always abide by that principle of secrecy; especially right after alfred had saved you from... whatever happened years ago in elementary. from when that man... no, those men knew about your identity...

so, safe to say you were an introvert, at least when it comes to social media. the concept of the fear of missing out never once rattled your brain, no matter how anxious you are whenever you're with your friends; scared that you wouldn't fit in. but they never cared and accepted you with open arms, so it doesn't really matter, no?

you're safe now that you're at metropolis.

and like she always said, better safe than sorry! keep it within you and never out!

so why?

why is it just right after you've opened your twitter app— why is it that your face is plastered all across news accounts?

anyways, the second and third images are so romantic!!! and cute, and cured my depression i swear. i showed this to my one friend and she told me that conner's hand size compared to mc's is straight up hot, and i agree! i love the hand placement, and the way conner holds the mc so softly! yes, i too, would love to touch his man-tits beyond his impeccably tight shirt and play with his hands!

and the cute little panel with him squishing their face and desire their confirmation that, they do, in fact, think they're hot. he's a very insecure man after all, and his self-worth would revolve around your perception of him. he doesn't see you as god, but he doesnt see you as his everything. every opinion matters from you, and that's what makes the green flag part about him.

fun fact about him in the series! he loves to moisturize his hands with lots of skin care products because he read from an article once that some people prefer the feel of soft or moisturized hands. he definitely did not wait for the moment for you to touch him for the first time in forever since he first saw you! yeah, he's a bit more freaky than i let him out to be. the more you're exposed to him, the more you'll learn just how obsessed he is.

as for all the people asking if i'd write more about him: the answer is yes! he's a vital character, so don't worry because he'll appear in many scenes either way. for those concerned about why he didn't save the mc— well, chapter five will explain soon 🩷

and this art perfectly portrays it! it's seen from an outside perspective and they look very pretty, yet from what they see with their eyes is a different thing. the longer you stare at yourself, the more your image is distorted. i intentionally added the flower analogy because flowers are portrayed as pretty, no matter the size and shape. even as they wilt or sag, they still retain some color and a semblance of what was once a history of their prime.

then lastly! the mirror scene. it all returns to chapter three, chapter four was a sequel of their breakdown containing mirrors. reflections and the perception of one self is an important aspect of my series because it reminds me of myself, so them nit-picking each and every insecurity whilst staring at the mirror; that's a scene i wrote based off of a real life experience of mine. having both attractive parents, or those acknowledged as conventionally pretty, whilst being in an environment filled with as equally smart or attractive people, comparing yourself to them all the time, is a struggle.

the only way to make flowers 'ugly' is by destroying them, by stepping on them, ripping them apart, never once caring for them. i think that's very crucial because people do see anything destroyed or stripped away from its foundation a mess, or so. but there's always beauty in everything and i abide by that thought!

again, thank you so much ash for drawing this and bringing my story to life! you, alongside many other users who send in their fanarts, are always such an inspiration for me to write! you guys are the backbone of my series and i stand by my sentence!!! may you get plenty of commissions and plenty of money to support you <333

also, the FLOWER BOTTLE AND THE CAT PAW REFERENCE! i love how everyone accepts that we have a canon cat now based solely off of this. i think that's precious, and having a feline pet is a great little choice for my own plot (just to lessen the pain of the angst).

i hope you enjoyed this little mess rant!

(as for the songs, don't worry, the lyrics become more prevalent for chapter five! chapter four doesn't have any explicit lyrics contained in them, only implications.)

—

It was late. Way past midnight. Maddy had already gone to bed a few hours ago. But Charles was still up, slouched on the couch in his five-star suite, a frown edged deep into his forehead.

He silently scrolled through his social media, switching from Twitter to Instagram to Twitter and back to Instagram again. You'd just posted new photos of your show in London tonight, looking as beautiful as ever.

The stage was where Charles knew you felt most comfortable, somewhere you weren’t scared to open up your heart and be vulnerable. The atmosphere you were able to create during your concerts couldn’t be put into words. It was truly something one of a kind. The way you effortlessly connected with the audience… it always left him speechless and usually with a wide, beaming smile.

In other words, he would never tire of watching you perform.

Charles had always been proud of you. And still, as he sat there reading through the thousands of posts by your fans and even some by his colleagues, he couldn’t help but feel that same sense of pride swell inside of him. 

Though, that pride was mostly overshadowed by a feeling of intense guilt. Guilt that kept nagging at him ever since the moment you’d packed your bags and left his apartment with tears running down your cheeks. His heart clenched painfully as Charles thought back to that particular day. It was his fault. All of it. He had been stupid. No, beyond stupid. It had started out as a drunken mistake. But you can’t make a drunken mistake twice, let alone thrice. 

When you’d found out and had confronted Charles, he hadn’t denied it. And in that moment, he’d witnessed that last bit of hope you’d stubbornly clung to, shatter before his eyes. Along with your heart and your trust. 

As the reality of the situation had slowly dawned on him, he’d gone completely numb. Charles had wanted to fight for you harder, but he hadn’t. If he had, his current situation could’ve possibly been entirely different. Your new song—which he had already listened to three times—made that perfectly clear.

But he had decided on another path. A decision that resulted from losing the love of his life by his own hand. Did it make any sense? To choose to stay with the girl he’d betrayed you with? In his loneliness it had made some weird type of sense. Because if there was one thing Charles couldn’t handle well, it was being alone. And boy, he’d never felt more alone than when you’d closed that door behind you, making him believe there was no longer hope for a future together.

Now, all he wanted was to focus on moving on and stick to his decision to be with Maddy. Was he in denial about his true feelings and the pain he tried to bury deep inside of himself? Perhaps. Probably.

Charles was still mindlessly scrolling when Maddy emerged from the bedroom, leaning against the wall studiously. He hadn’t even heard her until she cleared her throat, speaking to him softly but with a tinge of annoyance. 

“Charles, are you finally coming to bed?”

“Ouais, je serai là dans une minute,” he answered absentmindedly.

Yeah, I’ll be there in a minute.

She rolled her eyes. “How often do I have to tell you: speak English. I’ve no clue what you’re saying.”

“Mhm, désolé…” 

Charles paused, quickly looking up as he realised his mistake. 

“Seriously,” Maddy scoffed.

He winced at her irritated look. There was no denying Maddy had a temper, her moods changing as quick as lightning. The countless fights Charles and her had had in the past few months were enough proof of that.

“Sorry,” he tried again.

She huffed, stomping away in the direction of the suite’s bedroom, harshly closing the door behind her.

He rubbed his temple, sighing. He was just tired. And speaking in his native tongue when he was tired or upset was something he did without thinking. 

Years ago, you’d quickly figured that out as well. However, you never judged him for it. No, you were understanding, trying to acquaint yourself with his language to understand him better. To be there for him. In the end, you knew him so well that you could almost always accurately read him, the language barrier between you no longer an issue. Not that it had ever been one in the first place.

He thought back to one of the tweets he’d read before Maddy had come barging in. 

‘Charles made the biggest mistake of his life. I hope he realizes it.’

He squeezed his eyes shut, letting his head lull back against the couch’s headrest. And just like he’d done ever since that fateful day, he willed all of his doubts, guilt, and pain into a neat little box, unable to face them. Charles sighed again, pushing himself to his feet, wearily following in Maddy’s footsteps towards their shared bedroom. But as his hand hovered over the door handle, one single truth echoed through him, unwavering.

Oui, he thought. Je le comprends. 

Yes. I do realize it.

I know a place

synopsis: the two of you go dancing at a gay club in london. part 2 to hometown glory. pt. 1 here

warnings: nothing really, fluff, slightly suggestive at the end, not proof read

a/n: ur gonna have to keep suspending disbelief pls and thank u. billie is billie, but for the sake of the story, she does not get recognized.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

“come on, baby, pleaseeeee” you beg your girlfriend, giving her the most doe eyes possible.

the mini tour you’re giving billie has landed you in soho. when you started university you would regularly visit the gay clubs around the area. some of your fondest memories with your closest friends were made those nights. so you wanted to share the experience with billie - it having been so affirming in your ‘baby gay’ days.

“it’s just not my kind of thing, y/n. you should call your friends and go, though! ” billie replies, squeezing your face in one hand and pecking your lips.

“i’ve already gone countless times with my friends - i wanna go with you! and, it’s not really my scene anymore, either, but you have to go once in your life - it’s a gay right of passage!” you go on at billie. you grab her hand that was just on your face and squeeze it, emphasizing your desire.

“ughhhhhhh fine! but only ‘cause you’re so pretty” billie rolls her eyes.

“YES! YES! YES!” you jump up and down, “you’re gonna love it!”

***time skip to the gay club***

the two of you walk in after having gone through security checks. there is a dimly lit staircase that leads you underground the train tracks - where the club is. as you two descend into the warehouse the music gets louder with each step.

amongst all of the laser beams and people it’s getting hard to keep track of billie so you reach your hand out for her to grab, she immediately takes your hold.

‘dancing on my own’ is blaring through the speakers and you can see a drag queen lip syncing to the song on the stage on the far side of the room.

“come on! follow me!” you yell at billie over the deafening music. she nods and allows herself to be dragged into the crowd.

once you’re happy with your spot - you have a view of the stage but you’re still surrounded by bodies - you pull billie into your hold and begin to dance with her.

both of your hips are swaying in unison, your arms around her shoulders. billie makes eye contact and mouths, “it’s so sweaty!” with a laugh.

“that’s the best part!” you yell back, joking, trying to get her to loosen up.

the song finishes and warps into ‘how to be a heartbreaker’. billie jokingly moans at the new song choice, “i love this song!”

you giggle at her excitement and separate your body from hers - the two of you now screaming the lyrics into each others faces. billie is starting to let go of her inhibitions, relaxing into the anonymity of the dark room.

kylie minogue comes on next, billie screaming, “banger after banger!”

once you two have been dancing around for a while, you lean into billie’s neck and say, “i’m hot, i’m gonna put my jacket in the cloak room.”

“ok, let’s go!” you two dance-walk out of the crowd and through the tunnels to the cloak room.

“here, put your jacket into mine so we only have to pay for one hanger” you order billie. she laughs at how frugal you are, giving you a ‘really?’ look but follows you orders anyway.

after you’ve successfully put your jackets away, you walk to the bar in search of hydration. as you two are chugging your pints of water, ‘i know a place’ by muna comes on.

“ohhhhh! i LOVE this song! dance floor. now.” you tell billie, slamming your cup down, and yank her with you.

“the first time i came here when i was 18 this song played. it was like a euphoric scene from an indie movie” you cheese, recollecting the first night you truly felt free in your body.

by the time the pre chorus arrives, you’re screaming along, getting ready for the beat to drop. once it does, the two of you jump with it. your enthusiasm has rubbed off on billie - she can’t help it when you look so adorable.

billie places her hands on your hips as you’re swaying them and pulls you closer so that the front of your body is pressed against hers. the two of you dance in sync, whilst you comb your fingers through her ever-so-slightly damp hair.

both of you stare deep into each others eyes, billie brings her face closer to yours. “you look so beautiful, y/n” she says with her forehead resting on yours as you sway.

her words cause you to cradle her head, searching for more intimacy amongst the bustling crowd of sweaty bodies. you lean in to kiss her, but quickly stop yourself, unsure of billie’s comfort level.

she notices your hesitation and squeezes your waist to tell you to continue. at that, your mouths connect and you make out with her. the climax of the song crescendos as your lips meet and hundreds of pink balloons fall from the sky. you both peer up in response to the roar from everyone around you, seeing the balloons.

giggling, your lips meet again, but this time only for a quick kiss. “the indie movie continues” you quip, pulling back.

various songs soundtrack your night, the two of you cycling through jumping up and down, swaying against each other, and heading back to the bar for more water.

while you’re on the dance floor some girl bumped into you - she’s obviously very drunk. the two of you are making small conversation, you blowing off her apologies for hitting you. amidst you little conversation, the beat drops into ‘treat me like a slut’ causing you to shoot back around to billie in amazement.

you’ve both agreed before that this is a song that will always make you feral, no matter the situation.

the ghost of slutty past takes over your body and you turn your body so that your back is now to billie. she knows exactly what’s about to happen, so she grabs onto your hip with one hand and uses the other to push your head down so you’re bent over in front of her.

immediately your back arches and your ass starts jumping. you shake ass against billie - her hands occasionally grabbing a handful of you, or her hand pulling down your skirt for you (she’s more concerned about your modesty than you are right now).

billie crosses her arms so they can hold your opposite hip, and begins to thrust into you. you catch on to her rhythm, and sync your ass so it bounces as her hips meet yours. with your hands on your knees you turn your head and look up at billie - a submissive look in your eyes.

she says nothing but smacks your ass and uses your hair to pull you upright again, the front of your bodies flush again. billie wraps her right arm around your waist and uses her left hand to coax your head towards her mouth. she swerves, though, and whispers “careful, princess” in your ear. you gasp slightly, only loud enough for you to hear, but billie feels you tense under her touch.

there are several pokémon games now whose stories have absolutely microwaved my brain (positive). but black and white is really unique in that out of all of them, it feels the most like it had to have been a pokémon game. not even in the sense that it’s my absolute favorite but it’s probably the most creative when it comes to making a compelling plotline out of pokémon-specific game and story assets.

most games feature being a trainer, bonding with pokémon, learning about them and catching them, often times getting up to some insane stuff with the region’s legendaries, etc. pokémon are obviously always present- as characters, tools, or narrative devices- but the core conflict about the game is about something else. those staples of the series were only one possible means by which that sort of story could have been told. you could keep the core characters the same and change details like the method by which they fight each other and it’s the same thing.

in some games, these classic narrative/gameplay tools even sort of clash with and distract from the main conflict. battles that in any other story would be to the death are much like a fun little competition. that’s sort of just an innate thing to the game series’ turn based combat that is obviously based on pokémon, and most games are guilty of it. but there are ways to make it work in-universe, such as really emphasizing how any given pokémon is stronger than any given human and therefore whoever has even a single one of their soldiers left after the battle is holding a weapon against a defenseless target. in any case really it's generally up to the player to suspend their disbelief and allow themselves to get immersed in the aura of danger. but i would really love more games to make battles feel like a threat to the trainer as well… usually it's about trying to scare you off or maybe rob you, at most.

and my true pet peeve… in certain games, you awkwardly take turns between stopping the big bad and collecting gym badges and often even if there’s a story excuse for why you need to go get the badge or whatever, it’s kind of weak. you want to go after the evil team leader but first and foremost you want to become the champion and play with your cute little pets and these different desires rarely come up at the same time. the main antagonist might not even be the final boss; you’re expected to all but forget about them by the time you get to the pokémon league. the story is cool, yet not the point. ok yes this is me vagueing about dppt again listen platinum means the whole entire world to me but it hurt me to wrap up the cyrus plot at seven gym badges and get just a few lines of gratitude from cynthia for it later

but that aside. even in games where there’s no story-gameplay dissonance, where the story might be absolutely one hundred percent golden and the gameplay might be incredibly fun and work perfectly. you at the same time might be like 'wow, this is about pokémon? it didn’t even need to be.' (not to say that’s bad, obviously! people who are here to collect and play with cute creature friends deserve some insane banger plotlines too. the children yearn for existential angst and childhood trauma. i love unique storytelling devices and i hope these games have super cool utterly wild storylines that go way crazier than the child friendly marketing would indicate for the rest of the series.)

but like. black and white is so fascinating in that the core conflict is about being a trainer. it’s about the relationship between humans and pokémon. most games have a couple lines thrown in here and there about how anything is possible if you bond with your pokémon as equals, but this concept is central to black and white. team plasma are such good villains because they’re not another round of unhinged terrorists, they’re a sociopolitical advocacy group that legitimately challenges ways of life that most of the people of unova have never thought critically about. they ask the question of whether these norms and traditions are right and good. it’s like an attack on the whole entire series!

now obviously team plasma is like. wrong.., of course,,, both in terms of what they’re promoting and how they carry it out… but the fact that they make you think. the fact that they start a conversation. the fact that they hold assemblies in public and stand proud and don’t hide and even convince some people… that’s terrifying. their original plan was to rise to power not by force but by changing hearts. and through that they arguably got closer to winning than any other evil team.

and there is absolutely dissonance between the way they talk and the actual gameplay which requires you to pokémon battle them. but this dissonance is intentional. it's proving them to be a bunch of hypocrites who think that they alone know how to treat pokémon right and are therefore justified in training them. and it's meant to be obvious that behind the scenes (not even truly in secret, just like anywhere on any path outside of the big towns and cities) they are abusive bullies. but though the player can figure out what kind of people they really are right off the bat, most of unova might not. either news of the sorts of theft and threatening they do travels slowly, or certain people are being manipulated and swayed into believing it really was for the greater good. truly team plasma has a level of power that no other evil team has ever had.

then there's n.... n knows it feels wrong and hypocritical but he doesn't know any other way. or perhaps he also justifies it to himself by saying it's fine as long as he lets them go afterwards (which is, ironically, arguably even more like using them as tools for an intended purpose than properly being their trainer.) but after chargestone cave he commits to what he believes in and swears he won't battle again other than in the few cases it's absolutely necessary for his goal.

and of course. the way he's also trying to become the champion, the way interrupts your journey through the pokémon league, is so iconic. but he did tell you that quite early on. 'I need power... Power enough to make anyone agree with me.' and then 'I'll defeat the Champion and become unbeatable, unlike any other! I'll make all Trainers free their Pokémon! Just try and stop me! If you want to be together with Pokémon, your only hope is to collect the Badges from each area and head for the Pokémon League! Try and stop me there, if you dare! If your conviction is not strong enough, you will never be able to defeat me.' you see how neat that is? see how narratively awesome and efficient it is to give the player yet another, more serious reason to do the gym circuit? it's one of your personal dreams, like those of your friendly rivals. but now you have a not so friendly rival. not in the sense that he's some neighborhood jerk but in the sense that he's a madman running for public office.

but seriously, it's very important to me that they broke the tradition of the region's official champion being the final boss. they show you the league in all its glory as usual, and then make a big deal out of having team plasma show up and summon a whole entire castle that absolutely disrupts everything. they made it loud and clear that they knew what they were doing as far as breaking tradition. they said 'i know entering the hall of fame is very cool and important to you, and maybe you can do that later, but we have bigger problems right now.' alder is no idiot. he just got defeated! sure he could heal up with some revives and hyper potions but let's get real, he's in no mood to fight you, and it would be irresponsible for both of you to battle at a time like this.

like. now n has all the accolades he needs to set himself up as some sort of god king that no one would dare argue with, and basically the evil new york branch of peta just won the election by a landslide and took over all three branches of the government, and that's sort of a problem maybe. sure they aren't killing anyone or destroying the world (yet) but. they are a much more realistic type of threat. it wouldn't matter if alder was the coolest champion in the series (and i do like the guy as a character); i would not have been able to care even a tiny bit if we had battled him at that moment. and i would have been actively frustrated and let down if we had gotten to battle him after the epic climax of the plot and n's heartbreaking farewell. it was a very unique creative risk to save the championship for postgame, but it worked out so well.

but see like! when n does battle you it's not even because he actually wants to win. every single time, he wants to battle you because he wants to get to know you and to understand the strength (and accuracy) of your convictions. from the very first fight in accumula town to the grand showdown between the two of you. n never wanted victory. he wanted truth. he wanted righteousness. and slowly he learns that he wasn't the one who had either of those. his external journey was a facade for his inner one, which he can only bear to admit to you after everything has unfolded and he's finally safe and free from ghetsis and team plasma.

that's all to say, when it comes to him, pokémon battling is the only appropriate gameplay mechanic by which you ought to interact with him. unlike other antagonists he's not fighting to tell you to get lost, or to rob you, or to kill you, etc. he specifically needs to hear the voices of your pokémon in battle to realize you are a good and kind trainer and that he was lied to about battling. this specific conflict wouldn't work in another piece of media. of course, a more general theme of having been lied to about truth or justice could be done, but black and white specifically wants to talk about the ethics of pokémon training itself (to which there really isn't a real-world equivalent, since making animals fight is usually either rare and specific, or outright illegal. as far as i know. it’s definitely not a public sport that children are encouraged to participate in. and we don't have pokéballs so we can't verify irl how comfortable and fun it is to be digitized and put in a machine. it's probably fun for them but idk.) and that's so fascinating.

now of course, ghetsis is a more typical antagonist who actually wants you gone. dead, even. but for him, i think a pokémon battle as a final conflict still works. for one, they don't overuse it. in lots of cases, you battle evil team leaders or their admins multiple times- the majority of those times being an attempt simply to get you to stand down. when they finally 'get serious', sure the battle may be harder later on, but you're still doing the exact thing you were before. and like. you probably expected this, right?

ghetsis, however, doesn't even seem like a pokémon trainer at all until the very last second. it doesn't take you too long to figure out he's rancid and a manipulator, and that team plasma is trying to capture pokémon in order to have a monopoly over unova, but for all you know, he really might not use any pokémon himself. maybe only the king and the grunts do the whole battling thing but it's the sages' job to just walk around and say cryptic poetic things. and then. boom. he whips out a full killer team of six. he goes from 0 to 60 real fast. you've had zero experience with battling him thus far and therefore have absolutely no idea what he's packing and it's scary.

and of course, how could i not talk about his actual team? his infamous ace is a few levels too low to be a legitimate hydreigon, implying something fishy or forced. and in the sequel it's got frustration in its moveset, executed at maximum power- first of all, what kind of sicko even runs that move in the first place? unless you're like. working with buneary or otherwise doing something really specific. and what kind of sicko is so abusive to their pokémon that they lower its base friendship from 35 to 0? of course, that's a rather low base friendship value to begin with. but see, with this entire evolutionary line being vicious in its lore, you'd think it would be perfect for a guy like ghetsis, right? they're both brutal and also irrational- being geniuses, and yet knowing nothing but destruction. hydreigon is a killing machine and ghetsis flies into a genuine insane rage upon losing. point being you'd think they'd have fun together. we've seen villains legitimately bond with their pokémon before. but instead they're two toxic haters that don't mesh. ghetsis is so evil even his own partner hates him. and he delights in that and actively chooses to benefit from it via the use of a particular move. ugh i love when pokémon battles subtly say something about trainer npcs through gameplay mechanics...

also did i mention he's trying to Kill You. other villains are probably fine with doing that if necessary but scaring you off or taking away all your pokémon would also work. ghetsis implies that he specifically needs you dead because you know the ugly truth, and that knowledge makes that battle a lot more chilling than usual. that is a case of a true pokémon battle to the death. it doesn't feel cheap or like a relatively casual competition there, it's not a fight where either side is trying to prove anything, etc. and you can tell his bloodlust was genuine because he does not give up or admit defeat. he tries to murder the next protagonist too and goes to even more extreme measures that time.

ghetsis is using his pokémon as weapons against you because they're the most efficient way to murder you. that's all he wants. and you can tell he needs them because purely visually you can see he's gotta be kind of an old man with at least two physical disabilities, and he's not really dressed for physical activity- he's dressed like a big shot noble (or thinks he is. that fit is so ugly) who could never get his own hands dirty. and thematically it's perfect for the big bad leader of all hypocrites to use pokémon as tools, as opposed to any other type of weapon. like he could go get a gun or something if this was rated higher, but i think the sicko probably delights specifically in lording power over his tormented pokémon, if choosing to run frustration on hydreigon when there are probably better move options available means anything. i think he'd choose this means of battle in any universe he could.

in conclusion! the generation 5 games, more than any other games, absolutely needed to be pokémon games in order for the story to work. they closely examine fascinating aspects of the pokémon universe that are otherwise taken for granted. they seamlessly merge the goal of travelling and working to become the champion, and the goal of stopping the villains, instead of having these be awkwardly separate storylines. the gameplay is relevant to all three tiers of antagonist- grunts, main antagonist, and true mastermind villain- in different ways. i would love for another set of pokémon games to have such a focused, unified plotline that also feels relevant to the overall series. very swagful. something something mic drop

“Do you ever listen?”

ft- baki hanma

Type of story: 🔥

Warnings: brat tamer, hair pulling, spanking, fingering, cumming, “yes sir” SEX

Hey yall back with another banger I can’t write smut for SHIT bro.

• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

“Cmon I don’t have all day, we been in this store for hours.”

Baki decided to treat you out for dinner and a trip at the mall, because why not? But knowing you. Y’all were gonna be in there for HOURS. From section to section you were looking in clothes that you didn’t like. Poor baki was just sitting down with bags filling up his arm watching your every move. He had enough, all the time you would chanter “Babe come look!” “Do you think this looks good on me?” and all baki would say is “I’m not buying it for you.” Clearly you didn’t listen you promised him this was the last store after he told you repeatedly he’s not getting you shit from here. “Babe please! This is the last store I promise!!” He kept falling for your little tricks but this time he wasnt gonna let it slide. “No.” he got up signaling you it’s time to wrap it up.

“No..? I literally said 1 more-“ he cut you off saying “1 more store? Y/n we’ve been to so many 1 more stores, I told you i’m not buying you shit from here.” mocking you. You weren’t going down that easy, you crossed your arms “I said this was the last store the final one. I just wanted a pair of red bottoms? It’s not even that expensive and it’s 50% off, so it’s like $150..” you protest. “Stop trying to get your way and get your bratty ass here now. You can get the pair another day.” You shake your head, not moving one inch, standing right next to the collections of red bottoms. “So it’s like that now?” Raising his eyebrows, “I guess it is” talking back. “Alright don’t say shit when you find your stuff missing.” he turns his heel and walks out the store with the bags in his hand. He wasn’t putting up with your attitude, not today.

You roll your eyes as you watch him pass the store walking to the exit, he beats you to the car waiting in his black customized hellcat. You stomp all the way to the car as he watches you from the rear mirror, you hop in as you slam the door. “Don’t slam my fucking doors.” he glares. “I slam whatever I wanna slam” you turn your head avoiding contact . “Where’s my bags at? Why aren’t they in the backseat.” you look back. “Don’t worry about it, I told you don’t say shit when you find them missing.” You repeatedly kicked your feet whining like toddler. Arms crossed, eyebrows furrowed, eyes getting watery. “Fuckin’ crybaby” he chuckles driving home. He thought it was gonna be a peaceful drive home with music playing in the background, but of course you had to open those plump glossy lips blabbering why you think you deserve those things you got and other stuff.

All baki did was turn the music up to mute your whining, bobbing his head to the music like you don’t even exist. He turnt the music down only saying “Just wait till we get home.” He pulled into the apartment garage building, not even fully stopping when he was about to put the car in park you opened the car door and walk out with your purse and phone slamming the door. You stormed off speed walking to the elevator, you make it to your bedroom slamming it behind you laying down on your bed. A couple minutes later baki walks in, he quickly walks to the bedroom opening the door and closing it. “Get up.” he demands. You stay put only turning your head to the side before you turn your head back continuing on what you were doing. “If I have to count to 3 y/n.

Stop fucking playing with me.” you ignore him only scrolling away on tiktok. “1..” he starts taking his shoes off leaving his socks on. “2..” you sigh still looking at your phone. “I’m giving you a chance to get up but you ain’t taking the chance.” he says. “3..” he walks to your side of the bed, tossing your phone across the room and grabbing your wrists. “It’s really not that hard to listen isn’t it?” he sits on the bed pulling you across his lap.” “Baki stop!” whines heard from left to right, he holds your hands behind your back as he pulls your shorts down revealing those expensive pink laced panties. “Fuck..look at that, so nice and plump for me” he slaps the plump flesh causing you to whimper. “You like that don’t you?” he chuckles at you shaking your head no.

After the 10 spanks he proceeds to take your panties off, releasing the hand he was gripping your hands with. He massages the red plush as you grunt from the pain, eyes getting watery and lips swollen from you biting to hard. “Look at how wet you are, so slutty.” he spreads your cheeks revealing your dripping pussy. You whine in embarrassment trying to cover it with your hands “S-stop baki..” you whine. He pushes your hands away slapping your ass as a sign to stop, he gets his middle finger rubbing your wet slit with one hand still spreading one of your cheeks. “Mmph!” you squirm as he slowly inserts his finger in your tight hole. He hisses at the tightness as he he starts moving slowly, “Enjoying yourself to fast huh.” he grunts. He inserts his ring finger causing a slight burn, he starts at a medium pace and then fast. You start squirming from the pleasure trying to get away. “Stop fucking running and take it, don’t know how your suppose to take this dick if you can’t even take 2 fingers”.

“Baki please! I- can’t fuck-!” you feel your orgasm build up already. Baki always thought it was funny on how you finish so quickly. He chuckles at you struggling to speak as he pulls his pruny fingers out, fingers coated in your juices. “Baki I was so close why-“ he sat you up cutting your words off as he put you in the middle of the bed, turning you on your stomach with your ass in the air. You turn your head back wanting to see what was happening. Baki was taking his black pants staring dead at you turn your head in embarrassment and whimper. Couple seconds later you felt him behind you, dick pressing against your pussy as he grips your hips scooting your closer to him. “Wanna be so fucking impatient and shit, i can teach you to be patient. Your gonna be a good little slut and take this dick, no whining or running. Your gonna take it until a say so.” he orders. “Say yes sir.” you don’t say anything only turning your head to the side staring at the wall.

He pulls your head back causing you to turn your head straight looking at the headboard. “Say yes sir, i’m not gonna say it again.” pulling your hair harder. “F-fuck! Yes sir..” you moan, “So fucking bratty” he lets go of your hair grabbing his shaft and swiping the tip once..then twice against your folds before sliding it into the tight hole. Hissing coming from the both you, “So f-fuckin tight..”. Baki never had a problem of fucking the brat out of you really, you didn’t know he had the balls to do it but here you are. “Mhphm-!…F-fuck!!” wetness and clapping noise echoed in the room.

Slick slick slick!

Mouth wide open with drool spilling out the same mouth that was just talking about. “God damn..” baki mutters, speeding up the pace you knew you weren’t gonna last anytime soon. “I’m cumming!! S-shit shit!!” Pants from left and right coming from the both of you, the two of you were both close. “F-fuck me to-“ before he could finish you were both interrupted by the wave of your climax’s. He slowly thrusts to ride out high as he lets go of your messy hair pulling out. You on the other hand slumped down to the bed with cum oozing out your puffy pussy. “Play with me all you want to, next time I won’t be nicer”

2025 BL/GL/QL Recommendations (so far)

Tagged by @slonekaru to share what I've liked from this year so far, which is exciting, because I can join in the effort to make everyone watch The Bangkok Boy. But honestly, this year has been a banger already, with a lot of good stuff, and I haven't even gotten to a huge chunk of my watchlist yet.

Note: I promise my entire list won't just be copying @slonekaru, they just happen to have very good taste.

1. The Bangkok Boy

Yes, there's a reason those of us who watched it won't shut up about it. Yes, it is that good. No, we won't stop talking about it, we want our season 2, dammit!

The Bangkok Boy is just an entirely different beast from what we've seen before. There is queer romance central to the story, yes, but it is interwoven into everything else, and it's done incredibly well. The crime elements are thought out and make sense, the world is incredibly well built and feels very lived in, and genuinely gritty. This is not a mafia fantasy, this is people surviving in a corrupt and challenging world, and often having to morally compromise to do so. Our protagonist is not a white hat, he is deeply gray, but you love him anyway, and you understand what made him the way he is, and root for him to find solace in love. And underneath all the grit, you still get to see the community and found family that people manage to build, even in the darkest of circumstances.

And above all, it is an incredibly well-made series. The acting, the writing, the directing, the visual languages used, the themes explored. It has the best international couple I've seen in BL so far, with a Thai/Korean lead pair, it has a incredibly sweet GL side couple, it has some of the best and most cagey villains we've seen in a long time, and possibly the best "I have to fuck you right now or I might die" scene in any BL.

Note: It does have some graphic content. However, for those who were waiting to see how it ended before watching, I can report all blorbos arrive safely at the finish line.

2. Knock Out

The story is compelling with this one, but honestly what truly sells it is the lead pairing of Thun and Keen. They are one of the most solid BL couples in a very long time. I enjoy plenty of stories where the conflict is internal to the couple, but it is also extraordinarily refreshing to see a story where the couple is strong, yet the outside world keeps throwing more shit at them to navigate. They get together quickly, but then you get to see why they work so beautifully as a couple, what they provide to one another, and what they bring out in each other. Keen could have easily been damseled all to hell, but he is so smart and capable, and is genuinely dangerous for the villain to underestimate. Thun is both a big softie and someone not to be fucked with, particularly if you plan to mess with his boyfriend. They just work, so so well. Also, they fuck a lot, which is fun for everyone.

3. My Stubborn

I don't like the term guilty pleasure, because I don't think we should feel guilt for any of our pleasures, but this falls into that sort of arena. If you enjoy toxic messes, romantic interests who are sexy but stupid, and a workplace that would make any new HR hire quit within a day, this is the show for you.

4. My Sweet Brother-in-Law

Seconding @miss0atae on this one. I haven't been doing well with keeping up with Vietnamese BLs for a while now, but their contributions should not be overlooked, especially because they often tend to have a lot less funding and a lot of them are labors of love.

This is a very short series, but it plays in interesting ways with perception and assumption, and you can't help but fall in love with the characters (I love me a cute and sassy boy).

However, warning - ends on a very big cliffhanger. Fingers crossed for a season 2.

5. Ballboy Tactics

I am very behind in my KBLs as well, but I am so happy I watched this one; it is an absolute gem. I loved everything start to finish. This was up there with Semantic Error and Our Dating Sim for me.

I am so weak for a romantic lead who realizes he is queer, and just happily embraces it, because he gets to be close to the adorable boy he's just fallen in love with. Jeong Woo having zero doubts in his new sense of identity, and determinedly pursuing Ji Won was a joy to experience. And Ji Won's reticence being not because of any kind of internalized homophobia, but because of his understanding of the sacrifice that our society requires of its athletes (and others with fame) created some subtle but piercing commentary for those paying attention to the subtext. Also he is just the cutest fucking thing.

And it has a surprising level of spice for a Korean BL!

6. Top Form

I know the behind-the-scenes drama has made most of us go quiet on this one, as we want the best for both Boom and Smart, and the management drama seems to be fucking all that up, and we're sad about it.

But I think it's still important to recognize the hard work that went into this show, and what a beautiful job Boom and Smart did in crafting these characters. I will admit the drama sometimes delved into territory that was not my favorite, I'm not a huge fan of relationship angst, but the central core of Akin and Jin, and their love for each other was such incredibly well-crafted and compelling television.

7. My Sweetheart Jom

I think a lot of folks tapped out early on this one, and I get it, it is very much a slow, slow burn. Most of the episodes are focused on character development, and getting our leads to the place they need to be to even consider a relationship with one another. It also hasn't ended yet, so remains to be seen if they nail the landing.

But I am recommending this show, not just because I enjoy the characters and the storytelling, but also because this series feels very Thai to me. Which I know probably seems laughable, considering how many of the shows on this list are from Thailand. But as an interfan, I really appreciate engaging with shows that I feel are tapping deeper into the cultural aspects of what it means to be from Thailand. This one in particular has a perspective on rural Thai life that we don't often get to see, with so many city-focused dramas out there. I think it means something that this was the show to bring Saint back to BL acting, and I think there's a lot of his heart in this drama.

8. 10 Things I Want To Do Before I Turn 40

This is a bit of a risk to recommend, as it's only one third into its airing, but omg am I loving it so hard. There is something about Japanese queer storytelling that really hits close to home almost every time. And just like with Old Fashion Cupcake, this show is delving into how society forces us into boxes as we age, and it's all rather bullshit. I adore Tojo beyond words, and really relate to him, as someone close to his age. I am still figuring out how to genuinely be me, and it certainly wouldn't hurt for a hot younger queer to show up and love the hell out me while doing it.

I'm a bit sad about the lack of GLs on my list, but still waiting for something to really hit for me this year (let me know if I missed something really good!).

I hope others join in the recommending, I have so much catch up to do, particularly with non-Thai shows, and I would love some help with prioritizing what to watch next!

I feel like it gets overlooked how Heathcliff is one of the more empathetic and caring Sinners. Even before the character development sets in he's shown to act very selflessly (getting his shoulder dislocated to have the security guards let the team through) and he sticks up for Dante, whom he *hated* on sight, when N&H want to dehumanize them. I think a lot of his "rough" side is learned behavior, mostly having to be tough to survive both the Earnshaws and the Backstreets, but he very obviously cares about the wellbeing of others even (especially) at his own expense and he'd be even more openly caring like this if it wasn't for years and years of learning to hide that side of himself. I'd say he's just as much if not more compassionate than Hong Lu.

YES!! it's honestly a pretty classic trope he's got, the delinquent with a heart of gold is just such a banger, but i feel at times it somehow flies under the radar... maybe not the type of thing pm fans are too familiar with...? idk. pacing-wise he's pretty different from characters like yi sang or hong lu, who go through a Realization™️ that completely changes the way they interact with the world. on the other hand heathcliff's realization is only the crowning of the development he'd already started ever since leaving the heights, and the theme of communication of that Realization in turn motivates that same development further: while he'd already shown himself to look after people more and more as the story went, after c6 he's also making an effort to do it in ways that can be more easily understood. you just take a look at how he expresses worry/attempts to talk people out of their Moments in 4.5 vs in canto 8 (even in a silly moment!) and u can tell the time that passed there, the different thought process behind them.

also since i believe this was sent last week when we were discussing mischaracterization, it reminds me- a while ago there was some truly stupid threads going around about how he'd been changed to make him less complex and how actually the original (and #better and #deeper) plan for his canto was for him to turn evil and... i found it kind of crazy how much attention some bullshit like that got just because it was popular users saying it, but it was also bizarre how many people really had either forgotten, ignored or just not picked up on all those moments, like... these are the very backbone of heathcliff's characterization in game! that is his character!

also, just like the exploration of hong lu's kindness informs the characters around him (kong qiu, elder huan, then xichun's character is pretty much built on it) heathcliff's empathy and his honesty does so as well- hindley and linton are obvious, but catherine too all but draws an explicit parallel between her inability to share her feelings with her loved ones and her admiration for him, who used to always wear his heart on his sleeve until he was made to feel like he no longer could. it's significant in the context of the city as well! we hear really often about how city people tend to become part of groups and communities out of necessity and pragmatism, usually referring to syndicates and fixers, but that so clearly applies to cathy as well, so once again his behavior makes him stand out, and it is different from the everyday syndicates "family" thing in that heathcliff resents hierarchies -something inherent to most of them- and is mostly pretty friendly even with weaker people so long as it goes both ways.

and that is when he's not directly standing up to protect them!

it's just pretty awesome. u see all these traits develop and become more obvious, and him become more caring canto by canto; it goes hand in hand with him learning how much he was loved and knowing to not ashamed of the person he is anymore.

Have you ever thought about your funeral? if you're on Tumblr you probably have, so I suggest 1) you get some psychological help 2) pick a song for your friends to play at your funeral. Why? well, why not? it will be your last message to the world, so you have a chance to do something funny.

Don't be boring and play Highway to Hell by AC/DC or Should I Stay or Should I Go by The Clash, be original, choose something that represents your spirit. If you're not insane enough to listen to music and think "wow, this song would be inappropriate to play at a funeral" don't worry babe, I'm here for you and I'll help you on your way to discovering your ideal funeral song. This will work like astrology for those of us who had ask.fm in the 2010s.

So... if you're here you were probably emo or had an interest in emo or some kind of fetish idk. Don't lie. So you could use songs that are simply recognised as "emo" by all your guests to give a message. Bring Me To Life by Evanescene is a safe choice, although Going Under is another. It's never a bad time to listen to Fall Out Boy, there's Immortals or Sugar, We're Going Down. I Write Sins Not Tragedies by Panic! At The Disco would be good, although High Hopes is another option, but if your mother is already dead you can play Hey Look Ma, I Made It or if you die having just graduating college then Death of a Bachelor. Still with emo, My Chemical Romance can't not be an alternative: Welcome to the Black Parade, Dead!, This Is How I Disappear or Famous Last Words will prove your death because if you don't get up to sing you've really gone to the other side. You have Hard Times by Paramore too. Anthem of Our Dying Day or Until the Day I Die from Story Of The Year are bangers, think about it.

If you weren't emo or don't like emo stuff (I don't believe you, but don't worry I'm not going to drag you out of the emo closet with your family babygirl) you can joke about whether you will be buried or cremated, even more personalised!

Will they cremate you? Hot In Here by Nelly, Sean Paul's Temperature, Gasolina by Daddy Yankee, Dynamite by Taio Cruz, Burn by Ellie Goulding, Girl On Fire by Alicia Keys, Drop It Like It's Hot by Snoop Dog, Things We Lost In The Fire by Bastille, Blow by Kesha. And of course, Fireball by Pitbull. You're gon' boggie oogie oogie, jiggle, wiggle and dance like the roof on fire with these ones.

Will they bury you? Drag Me Down by One Direction or Get Low by Liam Payne and Zedd, The Box by Roddy Ricch, She Looks So Perfect by 5 Seconds Of Summer (you'll look stunning in that casket pookie), Six Feet Under by Billie Eilish, Sweet Dreams by Eurythmics, Scream & Shout by will.i.am and Britney Spears (all eyes will be on you, ofc) or Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd.

If not you can use any song used as an internet meme. Like Like a Prayer by Madonna, Goodbye by Bo Burnham, I Wouldn't Mind by He Is We (you can also ask your friends to make a video of your life -like a recap- titled it "saddest video in the world", full of made up stuff) or Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley.

You can also choose one based on the cause of death. Hit by a car? Life is a Highway by Rascal Flats (bonus points if you are a Cars fan), Ride by Twenty One Pilots, Shut Up And Drive by Rihanna. Run over by an hoverboard? Dumb Ways To Die by Tangerine Kitty (yes, the soundtrack to the video game) or Nobody's Perfect by Hannah Montana. Shot? Bulletproof by La Roux, Hit Me With Your Best Shot by Pat Benatar, Louis Tomlinson's Kill My Mind or Bon Jovi's Wanted Dead Or Alive. Suicide? Don't Try Suicide or Keep Yourself Alive by Queen, I Think I'm Going To Kill Myself by Elton John, Rock 'n' Roll Suicide by David Bowie, Van Halen's Jump. Trying to save someone from a robbery? Smooth Criminal by Michael Jackson, Help! by The Beatles, Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio and the Avengers theme song by Alan Silvestri. Overdosed at a party? Ricky Martin's Livin' La Vida Loca, Ayesha Erotica's Literal Legend, Pitbull's Time Of Our Lives and LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem. Heart Attack? Demi Lovato and One Direction have a track called "Heart Attack" or Boom Clap by Charli xcx. Slashed to death? (I Just) Died In Your Gun Tonight by Cutting Crew. Eaten by a new Jeffrey Dahmer? Cannibal by Kesha. Or if you died young it could be Die Young by Kesha or We Are Young by fun.

If you like to be ironic the following are for you: Best Day Of My Life by American Authors, Stayin Alive by Bee Gees, I'm Still Standing by Elton John, I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor, Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go by Wham!, Don't Stop Me Now by Queen, Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You) by Kelly Clarkson, Every Breath You Take by The Police, breathin by Ariana Grande, Survivor by Destiny's Child, Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen (spoiler: they won't be able to call you unless its via ouija), Lush Life by Zara Larsson, My Heart Will Go On by Celiné Dion (bonus points if you drowned), So Happy I Could Die by Lady Gaga, About That Time by Lizzo, Wake Me Up by Avicii, Unstoppable by Sia, Safe And Sound by Capital Cities, When Will My Life Begin? by Mandy Moore (who doesn't love Tangled?), Rusted Root's Send Me On My Way, Take My Breath Away by Berlin, On My Own by Ross Lynch (Teen Beach Movie 2 representation here), I Don't Wanna Live Forever by Zayn and Taylor Swift, Kool & The Gang's Celebration, Alive by One Direction (bonus points if you're gay) or Viva La Vida by Coldplay.

Do you want your friends to feel like they're inside a sad edit? Somebody That I Used to Know by Goyte and Kimbra, Big Girls Don't Cry (Personal) by Fergie, The Show Must Go On by Queen, We Go Together by John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, Katty Perry's The One That Got Away, Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) by Green Day, I'll Be There For You by The Rembrandts, Cry Me a River by Justin Timberlake, Die With A Smile by Bruno Mars and Lady Gaga, Everybody Wants To Rule The Word by Tears For Fears. Or maybe you prefer to joke that you "abandoned" them: All You Had To Do Was Stay, Is It Over Now? or Look What You Made Me Do by Taylor Swift, Want U Back by Cher Lloyd, Problem by Ariana Grande, bury a friend by Billie Eilish, Smash Mouth's All Star, Irreplaceable by Beyoncé, Naomi Scott's She's So Gone, Friends On The Other Side by Keith David (Tiana is the best Disney Princess), I'm Like a Bird by Nelly Furtado, Anna Kendrick's Cups (for the Pitch Perfect girlies), Take Me Home Country Roads but the Lana Del Rey version to make it more random, Eminem's Without Me, *NSYNC's Bye Bye Bye, Let It Go by Idina Menzel (extra points if you died of hypothymia).

Anyway, in any context it's funny to fuck with your guests with This Is What You Came For by Rihanna and Calvin Harris.

Would you like to play a chill good vibes song for them to smoke a joint in your name? Don't Worry Be Happy by Bobby McFerrin, Here Comes The Sun by The Beatles or Michael Bublé's Feeling Good. Have you ever heard the lyrics of Treat People With Kindness by Harry Styles? You should.

Do you like the idea of kidding with heaven/hell? try Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin, Hells Bells or Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be by AC/DC, Locked Out Of Heaven by Bruno Mars (bonus points if you're gay cause sex won't take you to paradise), all the good girls go the hell by Billie Eilish, What The Hell by Avril Lavigne, Sympathy For The Devil or Knockin' On Heaven's Door by Guns N' Roses, Bad To The Bone by George Thorogood & The Destroyers (you can play the scene from Megamind in the background if you want), Otherside by Red Hot Chili Peppers, Cage The Elephant's Ain't No Rest For The Wicked, Back To Life by Zayn, Heaven by Niall Horan, The Smiths' Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now, Made In Heaven or Spread Your Wings by Queen, George Michael's Faith, Heaven Is A Place On Earth by Belinda Carlisle, A Whole New World From Aladdin (you can use the original version or the Zayn one if you like 1D), Defying Gravity by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande (to leave a message that you are defying gravity to those who ground you), Almost There by Anika Noni Rose (more The Princess and the Frog representation here). Even Europe's The Final Countdown can be a good bet, as can Hozier's Take Me To Church (again, bonus points if you're gay).

I've named songs from musicals as you may have noticed, and you might like them, so One Last Time from Hamilton, My Dead Gay Son from Heathers or The Whole "Being Dead" Thing from Beetlejuice might hit the spot.

Do you believe in reincarnation or do you want to screw people that you will haunt them by being a ghost/zombie? Oops!...I Did It Again by Britney Spears, There She Goes by The La's, Dark Horse by Katy Perry, Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jr., Thriller by Michael Jackson or The Phantom Of The Opera main track by Andrew Lloyd Webber (because it gives vampire vibes).

If you're boring you'll probably end up choosing Live And Let Die by Wings because you like the idea of telling your loved ones "let me go", and although it's part of the soundtrack of several films including Shrek the Third (so passing the scene would be funny), why not choose the actual funny equivalent? I'm talking about Let It Grow from The Lorax. "But if this ever-changing world in which we're living makes you give in and cry say live and let die" and "Let's celebrate the world's rebirth we say let it grow" are exactly the same, in case you didn't notice.

And if none of this convinces you: you can always use Boulevard Of Broken Dreams by Green Day and carve in your casket "I never thought being obnoxious would get me where I am today" which is a quote by Billie Joe Armstrong. Or just play Another One Bites the Dust by Queen, or The Office's intro, whatever.

I know if you read to the end you liked the idea, didn't you, sweetheart? So remember that you are too hot and sexy to die, don't do it. Ever. Be immortal like Castiel. Or Godzilla, your choice.

THE FAIRY DALE POST

(Credit to @zennyzach / @perisprinkles for this certified banger)

Hi what’s up hello, decided to do this separately from the previous question so it would be easier for those who want to avoid it to do so dndbdhdhdjdjbh

to all the Dale fans out there, I’m sorry to admit that I am not among you- as much as I appriciate what an accurate depiction of an emotionally abusive parent he is, I am NOT manifesting a redemption arc for his ugly ass, and hope that Dev gets to stand up to him in a BIG way in the shows future 🥰

Anyway: Is Dale Still a shoddy father in the Fairly normal Parents AU?-

YES. He’s WORSE, actually!! ☠️

Trust me when I say the read-more is necessary here- PLEASE read the content warnings before deciding to proceed- covering fairy Dale and Fairy Devs relationship requires me breaking away from the wholesomeness of the rest of the AU to cover some darker topics-

CONTENT WARNINGS: dalepreg, mild NSFW text, unwanted pregnancy, references to pregnancy termination, emotional abuse, parental neglect, manipulation, unhealthy parental relationships, Dale Dimmadome in general

Okay, with that out of the way-

One important thing to note about my swap au is that, in the time period the ask blog takes place, ALL the faires are adults! Which I point out only to explain why, at this point in the story, Dev has ALREADY had his gigantic falling out with his father (that’s, tbh, pretty similar to the one I like to think HUMAN Dev eventually has in my personal hc timeline for him) SO YEAH, Dev and his father are currently NOT on speaking terms, and he really dislikes talking about him (Perry has never so much as learned Dale’s NAME. He’s that secretive about it after storming out and getting cut off, but I’m getting ahead of myself snsbdbdbd)

SO, TO START AT THE BEGINNING- Something I have yet to discuss in the ask blog bc we aren’t far enough in the plot yet for Dev to openly speak about magic (yes, plot ☠️) is the fact that Poof’s role as the “first fairy baby in a thousand years” actually belongs to FOUR faries in the swap AU- Dev, Hazel, Winn and Jasmyn!

(Aaand maybe some other kids from ANW too, it’s not carved in stone yet how many characters this includes 🤷)

The reason that so many fariy babies were born at ONCE- (inciting PURE CHAOS in fairyworld, I’m sure) is due to an anti-magical comet passing over fairyworld (which I have not yet worked out the name and specifics of, yall will have to give me til Hazel arrives to get THERE sbdbxjshdjdjjdd 😂)

BASICALLY the anti-comet, unbeknownst to anyone, weakened and warped the magic spell in place that prevented fairy babies from being possible-

-go ahead and assume this middle part for yourself lmao-

Once the pregnancies start making themselves know. FOR THE MOST PART fairy couples are ECSTATIC to learn that they’re expecting- and because the comet violated nothing in Da Rules, they were ALL allowed to keep thier miracle babies (don’t ask abt Antony wheeze, I’m still thinking abt it tbh 😂)

So all of fairyworld is abuzz with excitement about all the expecting miracle parents… with the exception of one. Dale ‘Day-breaker’ Dimmadome, owner of the corporation that runs most of fairyworld, and the LAST FAIRY ALIVE that should have been entrusted with caring for a child, has also found himself expecting (don’t ask me how it happened lmfao, let’s just say “partied too hard in fairly Las Vegas” and leave it at that ☠️☠️☠️)

Needless to say, Dale was NOT on board with the idea of being pregnant, giving birth, OR raising a baby, so he has the AU pairs research every possible solution to the ‘problem’ right away, and keeps his pregnancy a secret for as long as possible.

However, all of that changed when the future visions started. They were mild, at first- just strangely frequent moments of Deja vu in Dales day to day life running his company, and strangely accurate dreams every now and then. BUUT as Dev continued to develop and grow, the visions got clearer and clearer, until Dale finally got fed up and went to see a fairy fortune teller, who informed him that his unborn baby must be the source of the prophetic dreams, and they would only get more powerful with time. Even in his fetal state, other clairvoyants Dale went to see could tell- DEV was going to be a VERY powerful one.

Okay so here’s where the “eugh” REALLY starts for me- (if it hasn’t started for u already screams)

Once Dale realized how USEFUL the future visions were, he decided to halt his research, and carry the baby to term, so that he could continue to have the visions, as he considered them an advantage while expanding his corporation.

Much to Dales dismay however, the SECOND the baby is BORN, Dale loses the clairvoyance ENTIRELY, buuuut now that Dale knows he has something to GAIN from doing so, he decides he DOES want to raise this child, so that it can be of use to him in the future (tho by “raise” I of course mean “make the AU pairs raise ☠️☠️)

I don’t have a drawing of them yet, but fun fact, fairy Dev was raised by two au pairs (the AU’s pixie equivalent) that are based on his drones from ANW- their ‘names’ are technically just strings of numbers, but Dev nicknamed his two servants/gaurdians/weird robotic gay dads “silver” and “Gold” 🥈🥇

I’ll infodump on them too if anyone asks abt em, but this is the Dale post wheeze, back to the horrors-

Dev grows up barley knowing his father, but slowly gets more and more demanding of his fathers attention with time, desperately wanting to form a relationship with him. Eventually, Dale relents, allowing Dev to spend much of his time by his father’s side, almost like a teeny tiny advisor or smthn? Baby Dev couldn’t be happier, but Unfortunately, it’s Dale, so ofc he had ulterior motives. basically as SOON as Dev was able to talk, Dale began to constantly ask if he had had any new visions, even getting dev private magic/ fortune telling/ clairvoyance lessons, to try and hone his child’s skills as much as possible as quickly as possible.

At first Dev thinks nothing of how hyper-focused Dale is on his future-seeing powers, and is just happy to be included and close to his dad for once. He’s more than happy to have visions for him, recounting them with excitement, and delighting in the praise whenever his insight was considered “legitimately helpful”

However, as time went on, and Dev gained the context of meeting the OTHER fairy kids and thier families, he couldn’t help but slowly start to question his fathers “parenting methods” - if you could even call them that ☠️☠️

(Hazel Wishingwell heard a rumor about a secret fairy child being spotted on a balcony of the Dimmadome building, so she, Winn and Jasmyn went to investigate! WIP of a comic I’ll finish eventually. maybe. probably.

poor dev lived a very Elsa-esque, isolated life before he made three gremlin friends who started routinely “kidnapping” him from his damn repunzel tower to have fun and hang out 🥺💕)

This ever-growing sense of unease continues to eat at kid Divination, and part of him starts to wonder if his dad really DOES only care about his powers like his friends say he does…

they are all. horrified. To learn how little attention and affection Devs father gives him. ESPECIALLY because the three of them have incredibly loving parents that have been calling them “miracles” and “gifts” thier whole lives, while Dale has basically done nothing but COMPLAIN to dev about how HARD it was to carry him for all those months, especially when he wants Dev to stop questioning him. ☠️

So one day, as an experiment, Dev LIES about his future vision. Since Dev realized there was no way for anyone else to witness and vouch for the accuracy of his vision-retelling, he decides to advise his father AGAINST the deal he was prodding Dev to see a prediction for, despite his vision clearly telling him that the partnership would be extremely profitable. Dev does this for a few reasons, but it’s a decision owed in no small part to the fact that, the more successful partnerships his dad is involved with at any given time, the less time he has to spend with his son (not that his “spending time with” involves much outside of Dev telling his dad his visions and Dale ignoring any non-biussness conversation his literal child tries to start with him 🙃)

This works for a while, with dev estatic to be getting to spend more time with his dad, even IF his mood is consistently terrible from having to back out of so many potential partnerships that he thought for SURE would work and be profitable, but it didn’t occur to him that his son may be LYING until one day, a partnership HE turned down BLOWS UP after pairing with a DIFFERENT company. When confronted, Dev immediately breaks down and comes clean, trying to defend himself by claiming he “just wanted to spend more time with him”.

Dale is BEYOND un-moved by the sentiment, and swiftly bans dev from his office and advisor council, seeing very little of him for most of devs teen years (tho of course they pass by and interact now and then, Dale goes out of his way to steer clear of Dev is his “emotionally volatile state” or whatever)

Once Dev is a young adult however, Dale makes him an offer for how Dev can once again be useful to thier family business: since dev has been continuing to hone his magical abilities even in his fathers absence, by 17/18 he’s quite the skilled clairvoyant, so Dale offers to instate him as an offical employee of the Dimmadome corporation, and have him offer fortune telling services for a Hefty price.

Dev agrees, and it’s fine at first, but dev quickly realizes he HATES his job, and in addition, seeing into the future MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY was really starting to take a toll on both devs mental AND physical health (he started to struggle with migraines -hence the glasses- and near-constant dissociation episodes, to the point where dev often found himself disoriented and unsure if what he was seeing was real or a vision, if that makes sense?)

Dev eventually has enough, and works up the nerve to, at first politely, tell his father that he needs to quit his job. It takes dale and dev quite a bit of back and forth before Dale realizes the EXTENT to which dev is intending to quit (cold turkey) emotions rise steadily, until the attempted professional resignation has dissolved into a SHOUTING MATCH between a father and son

After dev SCREAMS every single thing he’s been holding back for YEARS into his fathers face, he storms off, and hasn’t been back since. Dev also indirectly trashed his office, because Devs magic reacts on its own when extreme emotions are at play (he gets the flaming hair thing from his dad tho dbdbdbendnd)

Current day dev actually isn’t SURE where he and his father stand, but he assumed it wasn’t good after all his credit cards stopped working, forcing him to take a job as a godparent to earn a living himself (Hazel was MORE than happy to drag him to godparenting school tho lmaoo)

SO YEAH THATS PRETTY MUCH IT

I miiiight make it canon that Dev and his dad reconcile and reconnect after Dev saves fairywolrd, but that’s getting into spoiler territory wheeze

TYSM for the question! Apologizes if this made anyone uncomfortable to read, but thanks for getting all the way down to the bottom of this ungoldly long ramble too lmaooo 🥺❤️

[whorekneecentral]

*resubmitting my request

prompt 33: “you look so pretty with my cock in you”

prompt 64: “say my name- louder” with danny ric!

where there are at a party/gala and daniel gets jealous with all the male attention shes getting🫣

oh this is a banger - also is this the 400th piece I've used chloe and scotty's wedding as the event ? yes but shhh // prompts: “you look so pretty with my cock in you” + “say my name- louder”

Daniel wondered where you disappeared too. The last he saw you, you were taking photos with Chloe and the rest of the bridesmaids before you went off to get a drink.

To no one's surprise, he found you by the bar, surrounded by a group of Scotty's friends that looked absolutely enamoured by you. Daniel didn't blame them, you always did have a certain aura about you that held the focus of any and everyone around you - how else do you think you got his attention ?

"Anything interesting ?" He butts in, standing next to you. you smile when you see him, leaning into his side. "I was just telling them a story from your Redbull days with Seb."

"Hm, I have a few good ones from then."

The guys start to realize Daniel wasn't a fan of the attention they were giving you and one by one fizzled out. Your boyfriend rests his hand on your lower back, telling you to follow him as you two walked out into the hallway. It was a short walk before Daniel pulled you into an empty room, locking the door behind you.

"Everything okay, love?" You asked, looking at him confused.

"Did you really want attention so badly ?" He steps closer to you, you're still confused. "What are you talking about?"

"If you want attention," he drags a finger up your shoulder to your neck and finally he holds your chin, forcing you to look at him. "You come to me."

"I was just getting a drink-" "Then why were all those men fawning over you, darling?"

"I can't stop them from looking, Danny."

You barely have time to register what's happening when your boyfriend turns you and bends you over the closest surface. He pushes the dress up over your hips, you can feel his belt clink as he undoes it.

Your arms are propped on the counter, holding you up. You watch as he pushes your dress up, bunching over your hips. his hand slips between your thighs, fingers brushing over your panties and your head drops forward. 

Panties pushed to the side and He smiles at the way your face twists in pleasure. “You look so pretty with my cock in you,” he hums, kissing along the back of your shoulder as his hips dig into your ass. 

"Mhm hm," you can barely keep yourself up at this point, Daniel's hand digging into your hips. "Daniel-"

“Say my name- louder.”

You give in, his name falling from your lips like a prayer until he's finally satisfied.

I don't know what I'm supposed to do

Haunted by the ghost of you

Oh, take me back to the night we met

- Lord Huron

-----------------------------------------

Orchestral music filled the opera house, providing a thickly layered base over which this year's soprano lead soared. The entire audience was enraptured and Rook's cheeks were wet as the music coursed both around and through her.

Her blood thrumming with the lilting beauty of the performance, she closed her eyes to simply feel it. Her hands came up to hold her swollen belly and she rubbed soothing circles over the excited kicks and flutters from within.

Wishing the baby's father was still here, Rook could hear the echoes of his deep timbre from when the two of them had sung a song from this very opera together in his quarters.

Beginning to cry in earnest, she was grateful for how dark the opera house was. It had only been a little more than half a year, but she still felt his loss as though it just happened. Saving Thedas had not brought back her Butcher, after all.

Her days were haunted by his ghost in everything... whether happy or sad. At first she'd been numb. Then had come despair because she couldn't even walk down the streets of their beloved Treviso - their jewel - without feeling the gaping hole her chest where he'd been. She struggled daily, just trying to figure out what to do... how to live.

The song stretched on, melody shifting to an inquisitive, lighthearted movement. Rook reached into her pocket, fingers tracing the red and blue jewel he'd had cut for her. It brought her comfort to carry it with her... almost as though a piece of his heart remained with her.

She recalled their first night together after he invited her down from her perch atop the rafters. It didn't take long for her to know she was in love with him... she'd been captivated even before those nights together by his gentle manner, reading, and singing.

As the final notes sounded, Rook blinked away the tears. She joined in with the applause, this final piece earning the performers a standing ovation. Rook sighed deeply through her nose and swallowed against the lump in her throat, wishing he could have attended with her. This had been his favorite opera.

Scrubbing her damp cheeks on the back of her sleeve, she took comfort in the thought that perhaps she could raise their child to love this opera, too. Maybe the babe would even come to sing with her.

Everything she had worked toward was to preserve this wondrous city for everyone. Now her motivation was narrowed to just one person. Rook would raise their child amongst the glittering lights, romantic canals, arched, stained glass windows... and the arts.

And maybe seeing Daathrata in everything would cease to cause her pain, some day. Maybe she would learn to only remember their love.

For this little one... she'd try. Daathjoya. They would be named for their father... and their city.

Link for the fic this is a follow up to: The Butcher of Treviso Finds Love

Guys... I wrote this on the fly in the app at 7am shortly after getting myself and the fam up for the day. I'm sure it's not great... but I'll probably flesh it out a bit and put it on AO3 at some point haha.

Also... is the baby's intended name corny? Half of Daathrata plus joya (sp for jewel)? 100%

Y'all might not know this about me... but I'm nothing if not corny.

Thank @thebarghestiest for the baby brainworm

This week's prompt is :: taylor swift’s Lover - I've loved you three summers now, honey, but I want 'em all

(Post game Rookanis. This one absolutely got away from me and will need some polishing, but it was definitely fun ^_^ )

My Dear Readers, society's salacious soirees are in full swing as the spring social season has started! For this week’s column, I invite you to look back with me over a lesson hard learned by two of our favorites - the soon to be Lord and Lady Dellamorte of Treviso. Once, our intrepid god slayers attempted the impossible, to keep their torrid love affair behind closed doors. Let this little retrospective be a warning to any other aspiring lovers: be forthright with your passions less you find yourself mistaken for easy prey by those on the hunt for love.

((“We can’t keep doing this,” Rook said, tossing another unsolicited bouquet of flowers into the trash bin of her assigned room at the Starkhaven Keep. There was a note, a profession of love and desire from a local minor noble. It was not the first she had received since arriving for the tourney yesterday and she had already lost count of how many would be companions had approached her in person.

Lucanis was fastidiously pulling perfumed and embroidered scarves from where they had been stuffed into his pockets. Favors from various admirers. They joined the flowers and love note in the trash. He had just arrived this morning and already looked exhausted. “Agreed.”))

To set the scene, dear readers, we must go back to the first social season after the Final Blight. The social calendar of the First Talon of the Antivan Crows was always demanding. The social calendar of the newly appointed Champion of the Veil, Hero of the Final Blight, Savior of Thedas, was even worse. Our beloved Rook, humble Mourn Watcher turned unexpected diplomatic darling of the north, was wholly unused to the scene but found herself the recipient of countless cannot refuse invitations.

We know now they did their best to coordinate, making the rounds together as much as possible, providing support for one another’s agendas and providing cover when one or the other of them needed to make a graceful exit.

But these appearances were all treated as obligations where our lovers were forced to be on display and accessible as Symbols and Policy Makers and Deal Brokers and other dull things. Rumor also has it both also fastidiously intentionally hoarded their true selves for private moments. So while they attended the balls and dinners and endless meetings together, some started to question if they were anything more than politically convenient allies.

I assume you see where this is going, Dear Readers? If one does not make it clear they are spoken for, they are inviting others to try speaking up!

That first season went smoothly enough. Many of the attendees at the glittering galas of the northern kingdoms knew the truth of their relationship and were able to dissuade their companions from attempting anything foolish.

And yes, I hear you Readers. Many in Tevinter knew. Enough of Archon Pavus’ inner circle had seen the lovers clinging to each other after the Battle of Minrathous to remove any question as to the nature of their relationship.

Arlathan knew. Many had shared camps with our heroes, broken bread with them, and saw them without the careful facades.

The Wardens told stories in the Anderfels. The Lords of Fortune in Rivain. 

And of course Antiva knew. Antivans love a dramatic love story and we love them for it. The First Talon and the Champion of the Veil, killing gods to keep each other safe. And we all know there are eyes everywhere in Treviso and they often spied stolen kisses at the cafes, held hands at the markets, and acts of immediate and unforgiving violence against any who dared threaten our trying-to-stay-hidden lovers. Antiva had front row seats and it was better than the opera and I might be a little jealous.

Nevarra was where the first hint of trouble came to be, where dear Rook and Lucanis had a preview of what keeping their private lives private actually meant. One of the many would be heirs of King Markus attempted to woo Lady Rook over the course of a multiday diplomatic summit. Lavish gifts and a surprise private banquet and a dramatic public proposal on the dance floor almost came to blows when he was unwilling to gracefully accept the lady’s refusal. And that was but the beginning.

((After divesting themselves of the unwanted presents, they sprawled on her bed.  Lucanis had his own assigned room at the keep, in a different wing, and should have been heading there to avoid any appearance of impropriety. Another annoyance to add to the list. Lucanis rested his head on her shoulder while Rook threaded her fingers through his hair. “I think it needs to be tonight,” Rook said. “If we don't deal with it now, one of us is going to kill someone and cause a diplomatic incident.”

Lucanis grinned, kissing her collarbone. “I am not adverse to killing people. Especially for you.”

Rook smiled, turning her face to rest on the top of his head. “I know, but it would be terribly unprofessional.”

“Ah, that we cannot have. Tonight then, at the ball. If you are sure?”

“I’m sure.”))

As you can imagine, and as you might have heard, the second social season after the final blight was dramatically worse. The south had stabilized enough that there were more players on the field and more social obligations beyond the Waking Sea and more people who only saw the publicly polite sides of our hidden lovers and firmly rejected any rumors of them being involved with one another.

The attempts at their attentions and affections grew bolder, or so we have heard. After a ball in Val Royeaux, the First Talon found an Orlesian Bard in his room, wearing nothing but a mask and a smile.

A festival in Halamshiral fell to chaos when an elven hunter from the Dales attempted to kidnap Rook, convinced she would only find true love amongst her own.

The tale has also spread that Master Dellamorte had to duel a minor Ferelden noble who called Lady Rook a knife ear when she refused his invitation to dance and later at that same event, Rook had to curse a Templar who had tried to take on the “Crow Abomination” after his daughter’s flirting was rebuffed.

Doesn’t it all just sound exhausting, readers? One can appreciate a desire for privacy, but this is a truth nonnegotiable: one mustn’t hide. Not from us! Not from themselves! A little bird told me that at the end of the season our poor beleaguered lovers turned to their friends for suggestions on how best to stop the insanity. The consensus was simple - as much as they wanted to keep things private, that wasn’t an option. They had to show the world what they were to each other. Dramatically and decisively. And how lucky for us that they did.

((Lucanis helped Rook sneak out the window of her room in Starkhaven and she led them to the nearest active Eluvian. Their friends had been delighted to help them plan their grand debut as an official couple. Too delighted, in some cases. But everything they needed was at the Lighthouse, waiting to be fetched when they decided circumstances warranted it. It seemed counter to who they were, preparing to flaunt the private truths they had forged between them, but inevitable too. And if it meant they could get back to business without the endless distractions, it would be worth it.))

Last season had many memorable moments. Of particular interest to this gossip rag and scandal spreader was of course the behavior of First Talon Lucanis Dellamorte and his now officially intended, the Lady Rook, at the grand ball of the Starkhaven Tourney. They arrived together, fashionably late. He wore Watcher green and plum, Rook’s personal sigil embroidered on a scarf wrapped around his arm. Lady Rook was in a gown of Antivan design, done in the colors of House Dellamorte, a fancy crow blade at her side and a fancier opal ring on her finger. The crowd was stunned to see the normally professional, approachable, boring are-they-aren’t-they couple shut out the rest of the world and have eyes only for each other. They refused to talk business, fed each other canapes, chased with not so chaste kisses, and danced the night away. One of my lovely sources described their final turn of the dance floor as scandalously indecent, practically intercourse with their clothing on, and the couple made no secret of their intention to retire to the same room once the evening concluded.

Delightful, isn’t it readers? May we all be so open with our love! And may we all learn the lesson they did: trying to hide the truth does you no favors.

((Rook kept her eyes stubbornly closed, trying to shut out the light shining through the window. Last night had certainly been something.  Terrifying, at first. Putting themselves on display. By the end of the night, however, dancing with Lucanis, she had genuinely stopped caring about what everyone else thought. “How long do you think we have before Caterina and Teia start planning the wedding?”

Lucanis pulled her closer, his breath tickling her ear. “I’m sure they’ve already started.”))

Of course, that brings us back to the now. The highlight of the social scene this week is expected to be our lovers' grand wedding in Treviso. We wish them joy, a fabulous party, and just a little bit of drama and scandal.

And for the record, a little bird told me Lord and Lady Dellamorte already shared private vows in front of their inner circle, so maybe they did find a way to keep some parts of their lives to themselves. Dear Readers, we may never know for sure.

Until next week!

[typewritingyip]

First! Get better soon you awesomesauce typewriting fellar!! treat yourself with some warm tea and some rest!

also for the Q/A thingie i got a few question if it doesnt bother u much!

what inspired you to start writing and how did you get here? (as in writing bangers for the TF fandom we love you man)

For arcturus: do you have like an ending or story in mind? do you have scrapped ideas for the ending? (and may we peek??)

On the Arcturus 3 snippet we got the confimation that no texaid is taking place, however do you have other ships planned/ what are the pairings within arcturus? looking at u with googly eyes rn 🥺

ty for reading :3

Thank you so much!

Okay, let’s go in order!

What inspired me to start writing and how did I get here?

I started writing in middle school, not long after I had a major surgery and was in a dire need of an outlet. I mean back then I was writing on my index cards for class and just trying to escape the hell I was living in.

As for how I got here, I graduated from college back in May and sorta realized I hadn’t posted fanfiction in years, I have a few old pieces up on this blog but certainly nothing like Arcturus. I needed an outlet again cause I was spending 99% of my time studying for the LSAT. I never gave up writing, just gave up on posting it for whatever reason. So when this AU came along my sister and I were talking about it, then I started to write things down before it became my beloved Arcturus. If it weren’t for @keferon I probably wouldn’t have posted for another few months cause at the time I was working on a 10 chapter TFA Rock Star AU, which I’ll get back to at some point. This just was so inspiring.

For Arcturus: Do I have an ending or story in mind? Do I have scrapped ideas for the ending?

So, yes, I have an ending in mind. I’ve had this ending in mind for a bit honestly and love it so much, I just hope you all do too. As for scrapped ideas, well.. originally I wanted Red Alert to be human, then forgot and had him show up. I went back to my outline and just about cried. But it’s fine, I’ve made adjustments.

(As for peeking, mayhaps… I do a lot of stuff that I alter to a document in my commonplace book with other characters/my OC to get the ideas moving so maybe.)

Do I have other ships planned/what are my pairs in Arcturus?

Alright, I actually do have TexAid in this. So, the crew of Arcturus One does not know that First Aid is piloting suit 11, and the Arcturus universe of this AU, they’ve taken to calling that suit Vortex just cause he was such a famous pilot and they all know something isn’t quiet normal with that suit or those first generation pilots (they’d all be in their late 40’s early 50’s rn, so Swindle is maybe 46?). First Aid is pilot 3113, he was originally in Arcee’s spot for Arcturus 3 but I personally think that the eating the alien episode happened right before the announcement and things were moved around while he gets a psych evaluation done and the suit is cleaned. TexAid is canon to this AU even if I don’t know the characters well, I hope to understand them more by the time I write stuff for Arcturus 5.

Other ships? Now that’s where I’m having a blast. The obvious ones are Mirage/Hound, Knockout/Breakdown, Jazz/Prowl (they already are dating, just don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable), and Sunstreaker/Bluestreak for sure (maybe Sideswipe too but I’m still debating on how I want to do that/handle that.. idk yet.) We have background MegOp because it’s just a favorite of mine.

Then, we have Arcturus 3, Ratchet/Drift is just, *chefs kiss* to me, so that is happening but at the moment Deadlock is heavily pinning and Ratchet is oblivious. Honestly, most of Arcturus 3 is completely oblivious and I love that for them.

I plan to have other ships, but I think I’m going to hold those cards to my chest, for now.

Thank you so much for your questions! 💜
