#yknow. just. stuff that fills my brain up

[omegasmileyface]

every bookmark in my ao3 bookmarks has a comment but none of them are helpful theyre all just like "GRRRR GRRR OUUUUHHHH MY GOD theyre so. theyre. hhahahnrnrnrnrnt..... i wanna eat them"

[gibbearish]

btw similar to the whole "if you try adderall at a party and it calms you down, get an adhd test" thing, if at some point in your life you try microdosing shrooms with a friend and end up feeling like a functional person for the first time in your life, get tested for depression. like yeah hallucinogens come with elation so youre probably gonna have some "this is the best ive ever felt in my life" vibes regardless, but like. if that in and of itself feels like finally breathing in for the first time in years, thats for sure a sign that something is up with your ability to process serotonin most of the time. feeling better than ever before should be a nice bonus, not a crushing weight off your chest

lately ive trying to teach myself that i dont have to follow the stupid and arbitrary rules that i set for myself as a child. im an adult living on my own, thousands of miles away from where i grew up. i literally dont have to eat the crusts off my sandwich if i dont want to. who give a shit

[midnightshindig]

Holy crap I haven't seen nearly enough rex content.

Could we perhaps get some cheesy lovey fluff of having him move into our apartment? Homeboy needs a break😭

Rex Splode X Gn! Reader

(hey so you are seeing things I can’t even envision bc I’m clouded and you are big brained, this is brilliant)

Spoilers!

Let me first say he is a SHOW OFF

So when you first propose the idea of moving in with you, his only though is

”I bet I’d look so sexy carrying all those heavy ass boxes by myself”

and so he immediately agrees without a second thought

if You’ve seen Teen Titans: The Judas Contract, where Nightwing and Starfire move in together, this is basically that

Youre watching him haul heavy huge boxes up flights of stairs while Mark- a friend of yours from highschool who got you and Rex acquainted in the first place- flies furniture through the balcony window.

Rex, at first, is super pissed his attempts to impress you got undermined

But then Mark hits you in the back with a fucking couch and Rex gets to be the hero again

”Jesus- Mark! Be CAREFUL with that thing-“ he slyly pushes the couch away, poking a tongue out at Mark, who is unimpressed but smiles anyways

“you could’ve hit their beautiful face!” He cupped your face and squished it, moving your cheeks around in circular motions for emphasis

You swatted his hands away before laughing “Pfft- I’m fine, don’t listen to him Mark, I’m fine.”

Mark still apologizes profusely, taking this as if cue to leave.

This leaves you and Rex to unpack his belongings, which admittedly are few

Even fewer since you vetoed his pinup posters

he has a surprisingly sturdy postcard collection, and you learn he collects them from every place he and the team go

You end up filling an entire side of your fridge with the postcards

”Maybe we should hang them up? They could line the walls” you stand a few feet back from the fridge, folding your arms and admiring your work

”Yknow I think that’s a problem for later, actually.” Rex rested his folded hands over your shoulder, laying his head atop.

When it comes to decorating, he’s such a diva

i mean godZILLA of rearranging everything you own to be more aesthetically pleasing

hed put the couch in front of the closet if you’d let him.

surprisingly, the most intimate part is putting away his kitchen supplies.

bus utensils join yours in the drawer and his favorite mug goes right next to yours in the shelf

You realize he brought his own dish soap and learn he uses hypoallergenic dishwasher detergent

”Yeah, the scientists grafting stuff under my skin made me a little sensitive to some chemicals and stuff”

He wears elbow length plastic gloves to do the dishes, apparently

Your toothbrushes go into a cup together in the bathroom

He threw away all his towels because “Yours are softer” and you have to go buy more towels

After unpacking and arranging and fighting over closet space, it’s finally done

Your space becomes his space becomes your space

His NASCAR poster right next to the framed autographs of your favorite voice actor

He’s slowly learning how to use your kitchen, and the quirks therein

for example, your stove and oven run hot, meaning the first time he tries to make you breakfast, he burns the shit out of everything

and the whole apartment smells like burnt egg

its okay bc he takes you to breakfast at a diner so who cares

He’s shockingly clean, like, does dishes daily and vacuums and Dusts

Who DUSTS?

when you ask him about it- mid putting away dishes together- he gets really quiet

This is scary , Rex is never quiet

After a minute of thinking, he shrugs and puts a cup away from behind you, reaching past your head to get to the top shelf

“This is the first real home I’ve ever had, I want to take care of it I guess”

excuse you while you sob hysterically and hold him to your chest

Rex: ???????

He doesn’t understand just how sad what he just said is, and you smile fondly down at him

You Sigh dreamily, combing a hand through his hair

“I love you, Rex. I’m glad you moved in”

he wraps his arms around your waist, looking up at you from your stomach with a devilish, almost shit-eating grin

”I love you too, thanks for inviting me”

he’s so >:D coded

so XDc pilled

Hes so in love with you and the life you’ve built with him omg

BONUS!!

You’re getting coffee with Eve one day and tell her about Rex’s clean freak habits

She literally chokes on her chai latte and just stares at you like an alien

”Rex, Rex like superhero Rex? Our Rex?”

she pulls out her phone and you find out he’s mister “crushed beer cans and pinup posters”

“He NEVER did dishes when we lived at Teen Team HQ.” She groaned “Or when he secretly lived with me.”

The next time she sees him she chews him out

but like ultimately she’s glad he’s growing up into a good boyfriend

Between the Sea and the Sky!

Hi everybody! Meet the TWO new guys I made between last night and today! Their names are Tarmac (an Aeromorph dog) and Soda (a pooltoy fox), and they've filled a desire for these two specific kinds of OCs I've had in mind for MONTHS lol. They were super fun to design and draw and I'm super excited to do more with them soon!! This piece is relatively simple but more so serves as their introduction hehe

See more about them, including refs and some additional pieces/information below the cut :] (it kind of turns into a huge braindump lmao)

Tarmac is an aeromorph, although a bit more towards the furry side of things rather than the plane side lol. His design is influenced primarily by the Concorde and the Space Shuttle! I couldn't decide for the life of me which of those two things I wanted to use so I thought "why not use both?" and here we are lol. I'm super happy with his design, with the black/dark gray markings mean to emulate the look of the Space Shuttle's thermal insulation tiles and then I really like how the red and blue stand out against the gray. I really like his icon too! I wanted to make it look like a stylized depiction of a plane (mainly a Concorde hehe) breaking through the sound barrier with a sonic boon! In terms of personality, I don't have a whole lot in mind yet. Mostly that he'd be the brave, adventurous type and since he can fly both in the air and through space, he's gonna be friends with Astro too :3

Soda is a pooltoy fox! I have wanted to make a pooltoy OC FOREVER (blame my mutuals for always posting/reblogging so many cool pooltoy OCs hehe). I finally got brave enough to actually give it a shot, and I love how he came out! I was mainly just thinking about summery themes and as I was just trying out different colors and stuff, I thought about orange soda, and that's the direction I ended up going! He's got a big stupid tail [affectionate] and can have either rounded bappy hands or have actual fingers, you're free to stylize that either way! I've only ever drawn a pooltoy character once ever before, so this was something way out of my realm of familiarity, but I'm so happy with how he came out! He's so shaped I love him so much already <33

So those are my two new guys! Making two new OCs at the same time is already a rarity for me lol. The only time it's happened before was when I made Rye and Pumpernickel back in August of 2021. And then making these guys when I had only gotten Astro about two and a half weeks ago means this is an exceedingly rare event for me lmao. My friends know how infrequently I make/get new OCs, so this just goes to show how much these guys have been bouncing around in my brain lately lol.

They are definitely gonna have some sort of connection to each other, but I'm not sure how I wanna go about that yet. Since I made them back to back, they are already connected in my brain, but I'm not sure how I wanna express that in a meaningful way. I don't wanna make them siblings bc, well, they're obv very different from each other lol, but they're kinda parallels (with one being in the sky and the other being in the water yknow), so as of right now they're definitely good friends with each other. I might upgrade that to bfs at some point in the future, but we'll see how things go hehe.

Anyways huge braindump of a post lmao, thank u for reading if u did! I'd love to hear your thoughts on these guys since they're so different from all my other characters! Also if anyone may wanna do an art trade of either of these guys (or Astro as well! I'd like to get more art of him too!) let me know hehe

[cr0ftisprocrastinating]

(apologies in advance for the sycophantic screed you are about to read)

I have just binged your fics and feel compelled to tell you that they made me laugh out loud, kick my feet in glee, and weep uncontrollably. I loved them all but Nowhere Else To Go is my favourite bc I’m an absolute glutton for punishment and the agony of angst was particularly delicious (and obviously the cause of my weeping).

Anyway, I mostly want to thank you because, one PhD candidate to another (I know you’re doing a DPhil but, yknow, tomato tomato), I want to thank you for providing me with a much-needed escape from all of the theory that is constantly threatening to completely colonise my brain. I’m such a snob when it comes to FF and romance, so it’s so refreshing to find fic that makes me FEEL something for once in my goddamn life while also having beautiful prose AND correct grammar.

Also, massive props for somehow finding time to write fic while studying?! I am incapable of pretty much anything but getting stoned at the end of every day so my hypothetical hat goes off to you. I can’t wait for whatever your brilliant brain cooks up next.

So that this isn’t just me gushing I suppose I should ask a question: what are some of your favourite romance novels? I am constantly chasing the feeling of reading Conversations With Friends for the first time (which I saw is also a fav of yours), so I trust that any rec of yours will be a good one.

Oooh my god what lovely words!!! Ackkk!! Thank you!!!!!! You are both extremely kind but also extremely generous in coming here to say this after enjoying them - so thank you very much :’)

Also: solidarity! I hate theory. I said at the beginning that my thesis was going to be ‘vibes based’ and now I’m near the end and it KEEPS SNEAKING IN (like…obviously) and it makes my brain melt so yeah. Ugh. I hope you are doing well and all your friends and family are telling you regularly how clever and brave you are for pursuing this. At this point compliments are my only coping mechanism 😭

Please also share your recs bc you sound like my kind of reader!!! My FAVOURITE things in a romance are: really good characterisation, yearning, men who do not know what to do with their feelings. Like, I need that man to be suffering and longing. With that in mind it will come as no surprise that I truly love Pride and Prejudice so, so much. There’s also a fic version! Universal Truths by @scullymurphy is a delight and does yearning very well. There is also a published fan fic esque novel about their marriage which I really enjoyed (this made me feel very sad at points so fyi if you want pure fluff: Mr Darcy Takes a Wife by Linda Berdoll) (this might not actually have been sad but it really put me in a melancholy yearning mood for some reason).

I was raised, perhaps slightly too young, on Philippa Gregory novels. The Other Boleyn Girl still has a special place in my heart. (There was also a really dirty one with a young girl who was a witch who was drugging the man she wanted to marry, sleeping with him and having threesomes with his wife?? Definitely lower on the romance list but in terms of smut…. The Wise Woman). (That one obvs was my actual favourite, lol).

For the classics Georgette Heyer is very good, but sometimes I want a quick read and one with smut, so for more contemporary, ‘fill the void and gobble them up in the evenings’: Scarlett Scott for regency, Annika Martin for billionaire romance, Ursa Dax for alien stuff, especially the Alien God series omg they’re so good, and then Kimberley Lemming for genuine fluff and jokes in a fantasy setting.

I actually really love alien romance as a sub genre and find it fascinating and could talk for hours about why, but it is high risk high reward, in that sometimes they are not good. But hey! Such is life.

Anyway v invested if you have any recommendations to share. I feel I am missing like a major major romance series that I adore but I can’t think of it at all, alas. Very much in the market for some good ones though, I’m currently reading Connie Willis’ novels and oh my good god. If you haven’t read To Say Nothing of the Dog you must, it is perfect and exquisite in every way!!

[hools]

Sorry if this is a weird question, but how do you come up with your drawings? What does through your mind while making them? I find your compositions so gorgeous and intriguing but I can't really figure out how you approach things since everything's very shifty and abstract. It's really gorgeous work, I'm so glad I discovered your art :,)

hey first of all this isnt a weird question at all & i'm really glad you enjoy my art heheheheheehe. there's an incoming large largely unformatted block of text that i hope you dont mind!

Honestly there are a billion things going through my mind at a time while I'm drawing and they all sort of bump into each other and cancel each other out like opposing particles. If you've seen any of my streams i'm usually very fast and iterative in a lot of my process and i rarely ever slow down even past the early parts like thumbnailing and sketching. i kind of let my hands do the talking more, yknow? but even then theyre never talking about a single thing at a time. everything interacts with everything, which is probably why i always end up getting lost and meandering. composition is not independent from color & value and neither are they from texture and perspective. its hard thinking of all of the ways they mesh and react to one another so i spend less of my energy thinking and more of it doing, and then assessing once something interesting comes about it. i guess then i prioritize my Hand Movement Actioning and Eye Vision Seeing over my Brain Neuron Assessing. but even though iterations can come and go quick this kind of informed throwing-against-the-wall isn't really the Fastest. but its fun. and you get to stuff all the unused ideas in your pocket for later.

even though i did say how connected everything is i always seem to start with composition. it kind of affects and informs everything the most at least on an individual piece level. with thumbnails & composition in general i think youre supposed to think huge right. so i Always think huge. push everything as much as you can. start with a crazy angle (not necessarily angle meaning "perspective" but like an angle between two lines) and border your scene within it. take an already steep foreshortening and steepen it further with the transform tool & see what shapes form from the empty & filled space. shrink your subject to only fit 3/4ths of the canvas and build around it to make it work. blow things up (enlargen) and blow things up (remove & obliterate). with composition you have so much room for fuckery if you give yourself the grace to accept the fuckiness.

and i guess this freedom to fuck around and iterate and build and build and build upon comes from how most of the time my initial ideas are very. vague? abstract like you've said. sometimes its Just a song or a song lyric and nothing else (no characters to attach to just the feel and my gut). sometimes its a less than 5 word phrase i felt strongly about throughout the day. in my me-only discord server i have messages in #to-draw channel that just say shit like "something about guitar straps" "thanks for knowing me!" "angel don't look at me" "DITHER QUEEN" (<-been meaning to make something with that). for things that have specific guidelines i spend more time thinking conceptually (the "rare animal" coelacanth drawing being an example) but otherwise it mostly comes out after. again. the first strokes. after you put the meat and bones on the canvas. an artist at a workshop i was at last year when i was in my own head about Needing to have a fleshed tangible Profound concept before being able to start something told me not to underestimate the stories that can be told just by your hands. and i think thats what stuck with me the most.

& one last thing i wanna mention is how despite how much i revel in the chaos of the process ive found how important limits are. i don't like cutting back on everything but i like cutting back on some things. sometimes i cut out backgrounds for solid fills and i love them that much more. sometimes i have little subconscious rules in a piece that i try not to break to keep a little level of consistency. if somethings a big wonderful mess already then i love a limited pallet and i love keeping parts empty and i love being able to breathe a little. yknow. but still go over the top in the other parts you have so much permission to. less is more but have a little more in your art than less. YKNOW?

but yeah thanks again for your kind words and wanting to listen to me talk. i havent been drawing much at all so these arent too fresh on the mind but i think i got a lot of what i wanted to say out. i hope u and others can get things out of this! if i made any sense <3

[feketeribizli]

okay wait marci questions. how does he feel about media stuff? press, sponsored posts, the obligatory slash forced social media goofing etc. actually what's his social media presence like in general. also does he have pets..... did he grow up idolising anyone currently on the grid? how does he feel about racing his childhood heroes if yes? also, what's his favourite colour? capping it here but i want it known that he has eaten my brain 👍

hiii thank youuuu absolute bangers from you as always mwuah mwuah 😁🫶

nearly wrote a thousand words LMAO im putting a readmore somewhere to save yall... thank you for your time everyone 🫡

with all the live cockslip talk i thought itd be fun to delve into his social media presence for real... team and personal brand posting he doesnt mind per say, he got that goober in him that doesnt take oneself too seriously so hopping on silly trends hes almost looking forward to it. aston socials esp their tiktok is like my fave thing in the world lol id love to see him recreate the adam security & gf trend with padre

marci mostly uses instagram and its a mess... i barely follow any drivers but ive noticed they almost always got a certain aesthetic they try to keep up and well. marci dgaf. theyd try to put some color grading filter on the first photo in his dumps so at least theres some harmony to his page but its atrocious

he obviously has an official account on every other site but its usually for stuff his management posts on there (and an empty tiktok profile where his reposts are public. surely nothing weird or suspicious to see)

back to press and shit... hes not a fan 🧍‍♂️ he prefers the scripted stuff and when he can have like three takes to say something cause when its just him and twenty cameras broadcasting live... he still gets nervous and then the accent slips in and he stumbles his speeches and words things in a way people could twist what he said around easily (moment of silence and empathy for little lando norris). hes a small scale driver so the world doesnt hang on every word he says but yknow how it is

oh now im yapping like crazyyy... this part could get a whole new post but its kinda media related and ive been thinking and wanna talk about it a bit... if youve read this far kisses xx 😘

but yeah since im inserting marci into the canon events of real life theres bound to be loud media frenzy around his arrival especially since its aston. and in lances place (gotta work more on this but i was thinking lance has a kinda bad crash somewhere in the beginning of the 2024 season and my guy gets summoned out of thin air colapinto style to fill his place in until recovery but out of nowhere lance is like id like to temporarily step back lol 😋✌️ and the world explodes and marc is full time employed now)

and like idk how the hungarian public would react to a hun on the grid after twenty years (hes faggy so id care. otherwise idgaf about hungarian athletes for the most part) but that combined with the guy the world seems to hate a lot finally stepping down (NOT ME LANCE I LOVE YOU this is me trying to help this is me putting you in good situations) the commotion would be a major event with marcis name in the tabloids for a bit

all im trying to say is that his f1 entry would probably be very overwhelming and hes this shy guy no one has ever heard about before blabbering at stupid fucking press questions while glued to fernandos side. who is he whats his deal

ok lets put a hold on media for now 🧍‍♂️ as for pets... an old bernese back at home :-) marci kind of grew up with her (as much as he was at home. or the country even)... management posting ten-year-old marci at his first karting event with the puppy in his hands and then twenty-year-old marci after his first grand prix facetiming his family in the aston garages with the dog on the phone too... ack

about idols... his big thing is michael schumacher i know that for sure. marc generally looks up to everyone and has immense respect for most drivers. the more i think about it the more im like maybe bro got a thing for psychosexual warfare kinda drivers (schumi, vettel, alonso...) like yayyy to on and off track terrorism when its not aimed at me 😁

confession i kind of made him to deal with my conflicting feelings about aston martin as a whole lol and well. anyway he still shivers hot and bothered sometimes when fernando is around. gets a bit self conscious about it too but nothing that taking it up in the ass couldnt fix

fave color is greeeeen 😁 as i said match made in heaven with aston. team merch is glued to his body

WHEWH what an essay and i dont even know if im making sense lol ! marci is taking shape and becoming rock solid in my head im very happy about it 😋🫶 shoutout again to everyone intrigued i love cooking up the guy im having sooo much fun ‼️💥❣️

[hazshit-hotel-hater]

100 FOLLOWER!??!?!

Through the grapevine, through the phone line.

HOLY SHIT!!!! 100 FOLLOWER!!!!!!!!!!! I was not expecting to hit that in like.. a little over a month, that is genuinely insane. Thank you so much for following my hate filled journey 🎉

This art was for my friend because they’ve converted me into a voxelette enjoyer so this is their fault btw/j

The Analysis on this one won’t be too long because I don’t think many people are as nuts about longform content as I am so lets see how normal I can be

First of all, I wanted to give Velvette her natural hair and have fun with puffs and braids and twists and stuff instead of just straightening it and putting it in ponytails. She actually went through 5 hairstyles before I landed on this one and I’m fully convinced she’s responsible for making this art take 9 hours but its okay because shes cute ^w^ also I have made her into a silicone BJD doll with plastic hands for better posability and a little hole for holding accessories and stuff like how G5 LPS did. The lighter strands of hair are also supposed to look a little bit like yarn because I think I was subconsciously thinking about Lala Loopsies and it led to the button eyes and all that. Her shirt was based off Fluttershy’s colours and that is 1 because they look good and 2 my friend likes fluttershy. The stitches in silicone also might not make sense to some but to that i say. uh go look up a suture pad

Here is her little Colour analysis 🩷

Now for Vox (and technically still Velvette), his colour scheme is mostly purple actually, the blue light turns a lot of it .. well. Blue. So you cant see it much but im not lying I promise. I feel like Vox is very insecure but still being prideful at the same time while Vevlette is more sure of herself, hence the significantly less amount of blue. The only blue accents on her are her beads, eyeshadow and scrunchies and the “sloth” aspect of that is mostly just how little she cares about others opinions which kind if intern turns back to pride. Meanwhile Vox has a lot more blue, not because he doesn’t work hard, but the methods in which he does things. His employees do a LOT of managing and he doesn’t have to do much for marketing because yknow. brainwashing. It also correlates to his personal grudges and grievances getting in the way of his work like how he had a public meltdown over Alastor. His body is blue but his purple suit covers it, ie masking insecurity with self assurance. People wear clothes, Im very smart I know you can hold the applause./j Hes also buffer because where the hell else is all the wiring gonna go

Here is Vox’s colour chart (note the use of bisexual flag colours/j/j)

It’s kind of obvious but their eyes are both yellow in sections because capitalism and all that. Also I thought making Vox’s eye change into the screen recording symbol was clever because yea he is watching everything and also he is technically recording visuals into his brain and processing them so !

I didn’t know where to squeeze this in but theres a very faint tint of green in his screenlight for the envy aspect so do with that what you will. Oh and his buttons are little outlet plugs :3c

[averycutesalamander]

hello miss sal i hope u are doin splendidly. i am here to say ive had juno on repeat for the past week and have had. well let’s just say. Thoughts. i need to know what u think about breeding kink boothill like.. on one hand i feel like he would be sent into a total frenzy if you were so into it in the moment you let slip you wanted him to knock you up. the fact you’d want him to give you everything, to have his kids, to lock you down, even despite his current predicament. but on the other hand i also feel there’s a little twinge of sadness in his head given he can’t physically give you that. probably heavier on the former i think he would absolutely be into that and give you SO much lip for it. in that sexy as fuck drawl man so uhh yea roll credits ROLL CREDITS

BREEDING KINK GOES CRAZY WITH HIM HjafhaJWFHAJFHJ ok hi i am normal. i did something adjacent to this at the end of DDBB (shameless plug if you haven't read it) but i think it'll end up featuring in a lot of my fics because i am Obsessed with the idea LOL

but yeah i imagine him to be really into it too, not just as a kink but also because he would love to have kids with you, if you were down for that. he gets so into it that im not even confident that the sadness would register for him in the moment. the dirty talk with him is insane. if you were super into it he would absolutely make you beg for him to get you pregnant. goes completely apeshit at the thought of filling you with his come. would love to stuff you full and then keep a plug or something in you to "make sure it'll take." christ he makes me crazy

in regards to actually having children (adopted or otherwise)... i honestly think he'd be torn between wanting to wait until all of this IPC business is done and over with before committing to kids, OR wanting to make sure he has one with you now, just in case, yknow?... like, if something wildly out of his control happens and he dies, would it be better or worse if he left behind a child that you'd have to raise on your own? the idea of you having to raise your kid without him is agonizing to him, but the idea of leaving you with nothing but memories is almost worse. there's also the aspect that if you have a kid now, he'd have to be far more absent than he'd like to be until his revenge is secured - especially during your pregnancy, when he would want to stay basically glued to your side so he could take care of you. with all of that in mind, i think he might lean slightly toward wanting to wait, but you could very easily convince him to go for it now.

i imagine, in whatever wack-ass future HSR is set in, he can get some crazy operation done that samples dna from whatever remains of his human body (which in my headcanon is pretty much just his brain and spine and maybe some nerves to connect to the artificial nervous system) so he can essentially make himself fertile again? via sci-fi magic? and uhhhh not to completely show my hand or anything but. imo the ideal situation would be like.. he is technically fertile, but the success rate would be so low that.. well. the two of you have to really try to make it happen. (im in a weird limbo where i do absolutely have a breeding kink but i ALSO have a mortal fear of pregnancy. but it isn't quite as hot without the risk of getting pregnant yknow. so if the chances are low it hits that perfect sweet spot for ME, but obviously feel free to imagine that however you like)

on a vaguely related note. uhh... warnings for cnc under the cut lol

so i have a loose plan for a second cnc fic (the first is dizzy heat, cloyingly sweet) where the two of you roleplay like you're an IPC office worker or something that he's kidnapped and he's trying to get a code for a computer out of you. naturally this involves some.. uh.. unique interrogation methods, including edging you until you break and give him the code.

a snippet for you (in text form bc im on pc):

He leans back onto his heels, looking you up and down, quick and noncommittal – almost unimpressed. Then, he makes a grand show of throwing up his brows in consideration. He scans you a second time, though this one is far more leisurely – almost starved; the plushness of your lips, the curve of your neck into your collarbone, the tempting swell of your breasts, the way your shirt clings to your waist, the way your pants cradle your thighs. “Well, ya might be IPC scum,” he drawls, raking his gaze up your body to meet your eyes, “but you're still quite a looker.”  The astonished look you give him isn’t quite entirely a farce; he has to wonder if he’s genuinely flustered you by just staring at you a little too hungrily. His lips twitch into a grin, his eyes narrowing lethally. “How about this?” he begins, his tone deceptively light. “Let's play a lil' game, huh?” Slowly, agonizingly, he leans forward into your space, his smile widening steadily as you flatten yourself against the wall. He presses further, dipping one knee down to rest just barely against your cunt, his teeth glinting as they hover just out of reach of your lips; he doesn’t miss the tiny breath you take as he reaches forward, hooking one finger beneath your shirt and leisurely dragging it upwards, exposing a sliver of your skin to the chill of the ship’s air.   “Let’s see how hard I can push ya before you break.”  Oh, he could die happy at the look on your face, all wide-eyed and awed, shamefully aroused and horrifically desperate. Your lips shake as you whimper, “W-Wait, please…” With a glint of red in his eyes, he snaps one hand around your throat, his gut clenching at the way you stiffen beneath him. “I don't wanna hear a word outta your mouth unless it's about that code,” he rumbles, his voice dark and husky. He squeezes around your throat once for emphasis, and he damn near growls at the tiny noise that escapes you. “Got it? Good.” 

anyway im thinking of ending that fic with him claiming that he's "still fertile" (whether or not that's true will be up to the reader's interpretation) and basically saying he's going to keep the reader as his "little breeder" and essentially baby-trapping her with the extra spice of kidnapping. the reader is like "wait no, you cant!! im ovulating!!" (also up to the reader's interpretation) and he just smiles and purrs, "even better, doll" and jesus christ i need to be euthanized bc im blushing just thinking about it LOLLLL

[walrus150915]

Nimona headcanons part 3 bc I'm insane (out of order and disorganized so like- be ready) and bc it's my new year gift for y'all

• Nimona mostly talks like a normal teen but sometimes she'd use words that show her real age. "Sonorous", "vapidity" n stuff like that. Her vocabulary is INSANELY huge

• Ambrosius tries not to swear so he uses a lot of silly replacements instead. "HOLY S- golly!!", "You son of a b- bishop". Like I'm sorry but he's the type of guy to say fricking instead of, yknow, the intended word. Ballister finds it endearing; Nimona finds it stupid

• Yes yes he does replace sex with lovemaking. Yes he purely refers to him and Bal going at it as "making love". Yes he's a fellow like that

• Ballister doesn't drink alcohol. I know that's implied in the movie that he drinks (although I thought he drank, like, soda?? On the other hand he is a wholeass thirty years old man who's seen some shit so I wouldn't be surprised) but idk he strikes me as a type to refuse drinking out of moral code. He doesn't eat pork for the same reasons (pushing my cultural Muslim Ballister agenda)

• Ambrosius drinks only during celebrations or parties. Not much because he's a light drinker😭 one cup and he's already lying on the floor, crying and hyperanalyzing his life

• after Nimona came back Ambrosius was not safe from her jokes. Neither of them despised each other (not after Nimona saved the whole Kingdom and not after Ambrosius proved he really isn't a jerk) but boy does Nimona make fun of him on any given occasion. Ambrosius was taken aback by this at first but then he just got used to it

• Ambrosius is being kinda petty and jealous when Ballister spends more time with Nimona than him ("Although now apparently he's got a new best friend, what's that about?!"), not in a way that'd make it unhealthy ofc but still😭. Him and Ballister were tied to the hip for like the most of their lives and now there's someone ELSE Ballister likes to hang out with? Ugh🙄

• Ambrosius had a diary when he was a teen, he didn't write much there (one or two sentences a day). Once he became an adult he kind of forgot about it but after the whole... Hunting stuff started happening he found himself writing a ton of sentences there again

• when him and Bal started dating Ambrosius had a whole page in that diary filled with "Ambrosius Boldheart" HE'S A GUY LIKE THAT OKAY

• Ambrosius likes to attack Ballister's face with quick little kisses. If he pecked his forehead he must peck his cheeks and nose and eyelids and cheekbones etc etc

• Nimona sometimes speaks in rhymes. She doesn't know how she's doing it but her tongue just does it on its own. ("Let's go dunk on the punk in the trunk")

• Ballister has actually been a year older than everyone in his class, another reason why he was the black sheep™

• Ambrosius can play the flute and the piano due to his noble upbringing he HATES whenever someone brings it up tho

• Nimona and Ballister have those nights where they recall historical facts and situations and Nimona shows her perspective of the things. "The guy claimed to be a war criminal was the biggest sweetheart in the world what are you onnn". Ballister wrecks his brain trying to understand if she's serious or not

• Ballister doesn't get a lot of the jokes, they just fly over his head. Only after some time he starts getting them, like in the middle of the night randomly going "ohhhh that's what she meant"

• first time Ambrosius and Ballister made out Ambrosius threw his hands in the air and said "yayy :D"

• Ballister's haircare routine is better than you think it is he's just casual about it. Yes he uses coconut oil like his life depends on it

• Ambrosius's complexion is leaner but Bal's is broader. So when they exchange clothes it doesn't fit because Bal's shirts are too loose on Ambrosius but also kinda short and Ambrosius's are kinda long but too tight in the shoulders for Bal. They still think it's sweet to swap their clothes sometimes

Yknow, back in the day of around 4??? 5 months ago??? i was playing warframe like every other day, when, upon finishing this one grineer extermination, I recieved this weird transmission. Something about a "candidate" being "ready". While I was heading to extraction I came across this one enemy marked by a red dot, so, without thinking much about it, I killed him and mercy'd him. I remember thinking "damn. My nova prime is so cool" while I looked at her absolutely demolish this random grineer's liver with her parazon. It was only when I returned to my orbiter that I was made aware of what I had just done. I had created him. Coheg Rott.

I didn't know what was happening; who was this man? Why did he have my nova's little bow on his shoulder? Why was he so unbelievably fucking stupid? I stood there, maw agape, listening to Coheg telling me about how I had "taken his arms and his legs but that was no more" and how he "lived and killed, killed and lived" and how he now had a "SECTORRRRRRRRR" and I remember thinking "oh boy. I hope this isn't that much of a problem."

Coheg then proceeded to take my fucking shit every time I went to earth. He took my money. He took my void traces. He even took my rare mods. And every. fucking. time. I had to listen to his stupid ass voice. Telling me how he "was the boss now" and how "Sectorrr… is… mine…!!!! sectorrr!!!! yes!!!!!! sectorrrrrrr!!!!!!!"

I hated Coheg. I grew to absolutely despise him. I had now a bastard, ugly, stupid child taking my lunch money every time I dared go to earth. It was devastating really. I didn't do anything about it for months, and during that time my hatred and contempt for him grew. So I started hatching a plan.

I had to take him down. I couldn't stand the idea of having created such a creature. A tyrant with the brain capacity of a goldfish. So I wised up (watched a bunch of youtube tutorials on liches) and I learnt some stuff. You have to kill his thralls. You have to keep stabbing him in the gut. You need to find out the correct mod order. You want him to have a good weapon like the Kuva Nukor or the Kuva Bramma, and not something like a Kohm.

So I started my mission. I went into his territories. I killed his slightly less ugly children (you're telling me this guy FUCKED?????) and I started stabbing him repeatedly. And getting those requiem mods, oh, it was QUITE the god damn pain, but it was worth it. All to see my bastard son Coheg retort and twist in pain and scream in fear and rage. It filled me with a satisfaction unknown to me up til then.

So I kept. on. doing it. Each time he ran away and each time I relentlessly followed him. He managed to get to sedna. During my travels, I met some kind strangers that stuck with me and helped me take my bastard son Coheg down, them also dealing with their own paternity problems.

And so the moment came. I finally stabbed Coheg three times with my pointy arm weapon and he fled to the proxima region. It. Was. Time.

I equipped my nova. She started this, she had to finish it.

He wailed and screamed and yelled. But he went down in no time.

And I was about to vanquish him… when I remembered.

"This fucking sucker has a Kuva Kohm."

And I realized that, during all that adventure, I'd started to… become used to his fucking raging stupidity. That if I killed him, I was gonna… miss him.

So I didn't.

He follows my orders now. Sector ISN'T his now. And my Coheg nightmares are over.

What's the lesson here folks? Always check out what weapon someone is gonna give you before sleeping with them. Also, I would make an absolutely dogshit abusive mother. So I guess I'm not having any children in the future.

Thanks for reading. And for the last time: Fuck you Coheg. (Affectionate)

Tmnp prologue ???

——

Leo winced as a needle pierced his neck. The beeping of heart monitors filled the room. Leo glanced over to Raph and Donnie, huddled together.

Leo sat on a table, doctors checked on his vitals and other stuff. His thoughts were interrupted by a doctor in front of him, shoving him back to the corner with the twins.

They were still little and most definitely scared of all of the needles and tests. “Hey guys…” Leo sat in front of them. Donnie quivered a bit, “Y-you’re ok..?” He asked, holding his curled up twin in his limbs.

Leo smiled softly, “Yup. Tests went well” Leo pulled them closer. “It’s ok…they’ll be gone once they’re done with Mikey…”

They looked over at the doctors handing a screaming baby. Donnie just broke down, tears running down his face, “I-I don’t like this….”

Leo comforted him “It’s ok… we’ll be free soon…”

—————

Leo laid on the floor with the toddler in front of him. Mikey was flapping his wings rapidly, given that the toddler had just learned how to move them.

The twins were sitting nearby, comparing their hooves/ claws.

“Leo? Why is my hoof different than Raph’s?” Leo sighed.

“Well…yknow how we’re all different? Like how me and Raph have short tails but you and Mike don’t? It’s like that” Leo tried to explain in the most friendly way possible that they were genetically modified soldiers meant only to serve the kingdom

“Oh.” Donnie was satisfied.

Suddenly, a nurse trotted in. “Good evening boys.” The nurse carried a clipboard with her wing and began writing “The previous analysis of D-07 and L-03 has shown that D-07 is without magic or particularly useful physical traits and therefore will be disposed of.”

Leo stared, before standing up, “You can’t do that.” Leo barked as he scooped Mikey up onto his back.

The nurse ignored him and went to take Donnie. This flipped a switch in Leo’s brain. Normally he was quiet and reserved, but not now. Leo’s horn was surrounded a bright blue magic and shot a spear of light at the nurse, “C’mon!” Leo levitated both of the twins into his back and stole the key from the unconscious nurse.

Leo unlocked the door and started running through the hallways, desperately searching for a way out. “Leo! Some ponies are chasing us!” Leo didn’t bother to look back as he was met with a wall to his face leo turned to face the guards, all dressed in black armor, the designs clearly modeled after the royal guard

Leo heard a whine from Mikey, “Donnie. Hold onto them tight ok?” Leo looked back at Donnie and gave him a reassuring smile.

Then a bright flash erupted, blinding all of the guards

———

Leo awoke to Donnie in Raph poking his side. He lifted his head and looked around before realizing they weren’t in the facility, but instead on a grassy hill.

Leo immediately looked at his younger brothers, “Are you guys ok?! Where’s Mikey?” His eyes darted around and locked onto the toddler in front of him

“W-we ok…” Mikey said in his broken toddler speech.

Raph peeped up, “You zapped us out and’ve been sleeping…” Donnie nodded in agreement.

Leo pulled the three of them close together, tears in his eyes. “I-i did it.”

———

I’m sick rn so this might be bad but I don’t care

In case y’all didn’t know, Leo is 12, Raph and Donnie are 8, and Mikey is 2. This is how that escaped and tell me if y’all have any questions!!

showtime precure!

chapter 28: a relaxing day off!

🎀: @xryptik @lowcallyfruity @harufallinwonderland @baileypie-writes

"Calamity you always mess everything up! Now Miss Tragedy is mad at us!" Catastrophe yelled at her sister who was busy reading a book in the corner.

"Maybe if you weren't so incompetent we would've had the ribbons by now," she scoffed.

"I can get the ribbons without your help! Just watch me!" She stuck her tongue out and disappeared.

"Drama queen."

"Finally! A whole week without classes!" Lucia yawned as she and the others walked down the street, the sound of cars honking and music playing from the various shops filling the air.

"And hopefully a whole week without any casualties," Constantine sighed, "seriously how do you do this precure stuff? I've only done it once and I'm already tired!"

"To be honest," Violet laughed, "we don't know either.."

"Wow there are so many shops!" Lucia exclaimed, "I don't think I've ever seen this many!"

"Really? In my town there were tons of shops like this," Reel scratched his head, "atleast there were.."

Lyna pat his head, "That reminds me, Reel why are you still in cat form today?"

"Just don't feel like being human today," he yawned.

"You never feel like anything to be fair," Amber rolled her eyes.

Cinema poked her head out of Constantine's bag "do I really have to come too? I wanted to sleep in today..."

"Yes you do, now stop complaining!" Reel reprimanded.

"Excuse me- did your cat just talk?" The girls looked at the woman in front of them who looked rather puzzled.

Lyna covered Reel's mouth, "No of course not! Haha cat's don't talk what a silly idea!"

"Your kitty's really cute," a little girl came up to Lyna and reached for Reel's head but he slapped her hand away.

"Sorry he's not good with new people," Lyna glared at him for a second.

"Olivia! What did I tell you?" The woman pulled the girl back to her.

"Don't leave the shop without you...." the girl sighed.

"I'm sorry about her girls, she can be a bit-" she glared at her daughter, "difficult sometimes.."

"Oh do you two have a store on this street?" Lucia scratched Reel's head.

"Yep! Our Cafe is right over-" Lucia rushed over to the window, practically foaming at the mouth at all the sweets on display.

"Lucia!" Amber flicked her forehead, "quit embarrassing us-" she turned to place her forehead on the glass too when she saw the sweets.

"Sorry about them," Violet sighed.

"Oh its alright! Why don't you try some of our desserts? Free of charge!"

"Really?" Amber and Lucia turned their heads with looks of pure joy.

"Of course!" The woman smiled.

"Wow! So many things to choose from!" Constantine looked over the menu as her stomach growled.

"I get to help my mom today!" Olivia held up a notepad and a pencil.

"That's so great! Then can I get.."

"Now I wish I'd turned into my human form today...that parfait looks so good!" Reel looked at Lyna's parfait with a saddened look.

"Well it's mine so too bad!" Lyna stick her tongue out as she wolfed down the parfait before having her head bang on the table, much to Violet's surprise.

"Lyna are you-"

"B-brain freeze..." her hand nervously shook as Reel laughed at her.

"Are you sure it's alright for us to have this for free ma'am?" Amber looked at the owner concerned.

"Of course! It's no problem really-" she was cut off by Lucia handing her a $100 bill.

"Please I'd feel insanely guilty to not pay you back miss, so at least take this as a tip."

The woman looked in disbelief and Amber looked even more surprised.

"Thank you dear!" The woman smiled at Lucia and she put the tray of sweets onto thier table.

"Jeez Lucia I keep forgetting how rich you are," Amber ate a macaron.

"I mean we ordered a ton of stuff," Lucia had her mouth full and swalloed, "Honestly I don't want to take advantage of her kindness and not pay her back yknow?"

"Olivia!" The sound of a metal tray dropping echoed throughout the restaurant, "oh where did she go?"

The girls looked around, but the little girle had disappeared. Suddenly they heard a scream from outside.

"Olivia!" The owner rushed to see her daughter lying on the floor unresponsive, "Olivia wake up!"

"Eugh! What a sickening display of affection!"

"Catastrophe!" The girls stood in front of the woman.

"Give up your ribbons or, " she tossed the coin back in forth in her hands, "I'll crush this girls wish coin and you with it! Facade! Wreak your havoc!" Lyna's parfait was transformed into a Facade that froze the Cafe owner and her daughter in a block of ice.

Reel and Cinema jumped out, "Girls! Transform!"

"Right!"

"Precure, Rollback!"

"Precure, Heart Rewind!"

"Lights! Camera! Action!"

"The star of the show, Cure Showtime!"

"The pride of the show, Cure Set!"

"The heart of the show, Cure Wright!"

"The diva of the show, Cure Action!"

"The finale of the show, Cure Encore!"

"Lights on! Set the stage!"

"Cameras record! Entertaining audiences!"

"Action! Start the show!"

"The show must go on!"

"Showtime! Precure!"

"SAWWWW!" The facade shot a strawberry at Set, who used her lasso to dice it.

Reel jumped to catch the pieces of strawberry in his mouth, to which Cinema just sighed.

"What? I'm hungry!" He offered up one of the pieces in his paws to her but she refused..

"Take this!" Showtime kicked the monster right in the glass cup causing her to stub her toe.

"OWWWWW! OWOWOWOWOWOWWW!" She held her foot in pain as Wright shielded her from another attack from the monster.

"Cmon Showtime! You've gotta fight it!" Wright sent a barrage of quills at the monster.

Action and Encore struck it from behind, knocking it over.

"Cmon Facade! You've gotta beat them!" Catastrophe moaned.

"Don't you usually have another little brat following you?" Encore swung at the Facade.

"Yeah Calmity or whatever," Showtime hopped on her foot waving her wand as a means of attacking.

"I'm not talking to her right now," Catastrophe scowled.

"Damn no wonder this things weaker than usual," Action kicked the Facade down.

"OH SHUT UP! FACADE FINISH THEM OFF!"

"Girls!" Action held out her hands, and Showtime hopped to the other three to hold thiers.

"Precure! Roccoco Lovely Shock!"

"Precure! Encore Brass Boquet!"

The monster disappeared, and Catastrophe vanished back to her lair.

"Olivia!" The owner looked relived as she saw her daughter open her eyes.

"Mom?"

"I told you not to leave the store without me! You need to listen to me more often!" She scolded.

"I'm sorry.."

"It's alright," she wiped her tears, "just don't worry me like that alright?" Olivia nodded.

"Thanks for letting us eat here Miss! See you around!" Constantine waved.

"Bye girls! You're welcome here anytime!" She waved back.

Back in the theater classroom, Reel was filling out papers when his stomach growled as he sighed.

He heard a soft tap on the table and saw a strawberry parfait that Lyna had placed next to him.

"I knew you'd complain about it, so here."

Reel looked in absolute awe as he greedily gobbled the parfait before stopping and falling onto his desk, knocking the parfait off which Lyna quickly caught.

"Brain freeze?"

"Yep."

[ya-killin-me-smalls]

yOU HAVW NO IDEA HOW I KICKED MY FEET WHEN I SAW YOUR RWSPONSE AHHH JESUS DUDE I've never talked to an author so extensively (well apart from. My partner who writes fics heheh) and ouuuhgghrggh thank you so much for indulging me... I never considered too hard about Deimos being such an unreliable narrator like I went holy fu k that's so smart. And obviously from a readers perspective I'm gonna project so god damn hard ontoghe entire situation and interpret it my own way, yknow. And ouhghh thank you for the next chapter crumbs. I have to ask because I'm so curious do characters have rough ages? I also forgot to really mention er er like how Deimos and doc genuinely don't know shit about each other. But worse because doc knows a lot more than Deimos. Like Deimos doesn't know how old this guy is. And he even said like doc could have a wife and kids and he wouldn't be surprised, but like YOU said that unfamiliarity is probably what makes Deimos more attracted to him because of his past handler. REALLY good point BTW I forgot about his handler n how it'd affect him.

And even rho like yea were all flawed I feel like doc, being the person in more power and more time in his life and more experience or whatever should recognise that if he wants to help Deimos sex is the last thing Deimos needs!!! If he made it clear from the start that he actually cares about Deimos rather than him finding Deimos cute, I think things would've gone a lot more differently. An honestly if I had time on my hands I'd like to write an au on that. ALSO HANKFORD HOLY SHIT

Gehehveeg again it means sososo much that u like. Thought so hard about what I was saying ur da goat smalls

as someone who's dumped in my favorite author's inbox before and got really awesome thoughtful responses, I try to keep that energy going. I also just really really love talking about this fic/ship like it pains me to keep my mouth shut about spoilers

I don't have solid ages set for anyone aside from Doc because he was asked directly, which was 38. Sanford is like 28 and Hank I'm leaving a mystery because giving them a solid age just feels wrong. Dave and Bert are somewhere between 25-35 but I try to leave stuff up to interpretation as much as possible. Deimos is a complicated answer and for that I gotta show part of The Sleepwalker Files

this is the one I was talking about that'll actually go over Deimos's brain damage and other stuff. so developmentally speaking he's around 26-28 during TIMH, which takes place 2 years after he dissents from the AAHW, so he was 24-25 when he dissented. in terms of time spent conscious and aware of the world, dude has 10ish years under his belt and most of those were spent under Silas's control, the earliest years no longer in his memory because of his amygdalotomy. it's a complicated answer but it's kind of a projection of my own experience being a system, feeling like I haven't actually existed for very long despite being 24. I could keep rambling on this and my headcanons for clone development and how the other place works and all the logic behind it but I shant

but yeah 10ish year age gap there and. well like I said. don't date your boss lmao. it's been healing writing this fic even if their relationship isn't quite healthy it's like. y'know Doc DOES love him despite everything and I wish it had ended that way for me. fix it fic for my own life

anyway Doc knows a decent amount about Deimos in terms of his past since he's read his file. he hasn't talked to Deimos about it because he trusts Deimos to open up when he's ready to, if he's ever ready to. on a personal level though, he's definitely in the dark but has the advantage of Deimos having zero social life to try and sort through. he's trying to unravel who Deimos is on the inside and Deimos is playing 3d chess in his mind about Doc. the mystery does add to the appeal even if he isn't aware of it, because everything he doesn't know about Doc he can fill in gaps with what he knew about Silas because that's the only baseline he has on how to interact with an authority figure. this has mixed results. I do plan to expand more on Deimos's background with Silas but honestly I'm like. glad that people see Doc as bad guy-adjacent because it means Deimos is doing a great job of lying to the reader and himself

the intermission I'm writing right now takes place like a year before the actual events of TIMH and that'll kinda clear up a little bit how their friendship was before it turned into a clusterfuck. unfortunately the place where I started it didn't really allow for that buuuut there was a foundational positive relationship there. if Doc were smart he would've given it several more years for Deimos to figure out how to be his own person before making any sort of move, but it was a heat of the moment decision and one that he regrets very often

please please please write an au (if you feel like it no pressure) I would absolutely love to see your take on things because just from this convo I can tell you put a lot of thought into this stuff and I think a fic by you would go fucking hard dude

hankford implications:

Deimos knows something is being talked about but he's not picking up on it properly

he's stupid and majorly lacking in maturity, hasn't ever stopped and thought "hm maybe my words and actions are hurtful to others" because he's on the defensive 24/7 and likes to blame all the consequences for his actions on things that he can't control instead of. his actions

man. I can't spoil things. it's definitely possible for them to salvage things and I got more than a few ideas on how that'll happen. honestly tho if you wanna write a spinoff where sanmos happens then feel free to because early on that was one of the endings I'd considered but ultimately scrapped

[bizlybebo]

GIVE ME THE STARSKATE PROPAGANDA !!!!!!!!!! I SEE U !!!! I LOVE THEM BOTH!!! GIMME UR THOUGHTS ABOUT THEM !!!!!!!

OK HELLO !!!! ANSWERING THIS NOW !!!!

(SPOILERS UP UNTIL UHH. SEASON 2 EP 35? FOR ANYBODY ELSE WHO SEES THIS !!!)

so like. lightspeed is a very special character to me already. she's one of my favorite characters to come from prime defenders i think about her allllll the fuckin time.

the crumbs of this ship started in my brain when we got to see that letter that lightspeed wrote to miss g while she was in the hospital/whatever it was she was staying at. i know it's just a typical like. friendly coworker thing to do but the tone of it all and just. ougughh my love for lightspeed made me think about it way too hard.

lightspeed probably looks up to miss g soso incredibly highly, since miss g was likely the one who invited her to join WATCH and appointed her to the role of one of the sovereign five. i think lightspeed wants to be great, too, and impress miss g. there's this innate kind of admiration she has, but it's overshadowed by her guilt and her grief.

i think both lightspeed and miss g's previous partners are part of what make this ship so like. alluring?? not quite the right word but yknow. just cause lightspeed is haunted by the guilt of not being able to save her previous partner, and miss g is still dealing with her divorce from her husband (comphet lesbian miss g....).

at the core of it, lightspeed wants to carry the world on her shoulders and impress miss g, she wants to do it all and be the perfect hero. miss g likely doesn't want to burden lightspeed further more than she already is, and so she holds herself back. it leads to this weird stand-offish sort of romantic tension. i think lightspeed would kind of linger at miss g's desk, trying to think of things to say, of stuff to fill the silence with so neither of them had to address whatever was happening between them-- cause it isn't exactly romance, but it's surely not just a gal pal thing. yknow??

essentially. they have this weird divorced-but-not-because-they-never-even-got-married energy, and i think a lot of it is just a weird situationship. the kind of thing that neither of them dare to address because it shatters the fragility of such a thing, but their conversations do occasionally go beyond just work and regular small talk, and they definitely dont interact like Just Gal Pals.

and just. ouughh the way it's almost entirely onesided on lightspeed's side is sooo heartbreaking to me. i think red was the one who said like. lightspeed falls in love with miss g, and then bam. giant space meatball. she falls in lvoe with archangel, and then, bam. demon possession. there has never been a happy lesbian in jrwi i fear. jrwi pd tragic yuri.........
