Another fae curses Chay to forget Kim every time they part cause they’re jealous Kim doesn’t want them (the curse also causes Chay to be in pain whenever they’re together it takes Kim a while to figure this out which is why he keeps coming back, he just thinks Chay’s sick) but you know Chay is Chay so he’s so excited to meet a fae and talk and help him etc. but eventually Kim figures out how to break the curse: he has to die.

kenma fatherly headcannons

i thought it would be interesting to think about what kenma would be like as a father 🤔

look, im not even gonna be nice with it, i definitely dont see kenma being excited at the idea of having a kid 😭

definitely was like "are you being fr 😟?" when you told him

he obviously wasnt an asshole about it, but he couldn't help his feeling and indifference about the whole thing

the two of you had a long talk about it

the whole time he was more or less "are you sure about this"

hes not a horrible person/partner, he wasnt about to force you to do an abortion

he just wanted to make sure this was actually what you wanted to do and if you were actually serious about it

after you were stern about keeping the baby, he was fine with it

he was more worried about how he would be like as a father because he's very much scared of little kids and struggles to bond with just anyone

also a little peeved at the thought of his alone/free time being taken away

doesnt like the idea of his alone time with you having a literal permanent third wheeler but wont admit that to anyone but kuroo 🌚

during ur pregnancy, he was actually really okay with it

he would check up on you various times of the day, asking how you feel

yeah, he wasnt really excited for it, but that doesn't mean he wont try for it

would pause his games and go to wherever part of the house you were in, eyeing your baby bump with those wary cat eyes of his, all "..how are you feeling..?"

tbh i see you getting pregnant before marrying him because the two of you were kinda lazy with being careful 😅

he kinda facepalms because now hes like "why didnt i think of the possibility of pregnancy🤦🏽‍♀️"

while it doesn't speed up the whole process, he'll now begin taking the thought of marriage seriously

he'll bring up the idea of eloping, or a small wedding because he doesn't like the idea of a big and elaborate wedding ceremony/party

he didnt really care about gender, but he did care about baby names because he didnt want the baby to have a stupid name

now i see him being very curious tho

so he'll ask you a bunch of questions about how it feels to be pregnant, eyes wide when you tell him all the gruesome parts 😭

will also spend some time looking up more information about pregnancy and childbirth

now i do think he'd be aware about how he should change himself for the better

he grew up kinda isolated, and he 100% didnt want that for his kid, especially considering the fact that his child will most likely be an only child too

aw sleeping in kenma's arms while he plays video games cuz hormones made you sad

he'll like announce ur pregnancy to his followers/fans, it was so random he was like "yeah guys im having a kid 😪 kinda scary ngl" during one of his livestreams

really appreciates and is totally surprised when he's gifted money and baby supplies by his fans

maybe posts short little clips of you sleeping in an odd position or doing random things because he thinks its funny how you now do things differently because your bump prevents you from doing things in a certain way

i think it would interest him in the way your baby bump grows

he would be a little mortified at the way he would poke your bump's skin and watch his indent stay there long after he pulled his finger away

would be kinda "??? 🤔🤨" when he first feels the baby's kick/movements

he would "begrudgingly" walk to the store for you late at night if you were craving something

acts all annoyed but lets bffr kenma we know ur a softie 🤣

okay for the birth tho he's so mortified

definitely doesnt want to watch but obviously will be there for you because he knows better

the whole time he feels secondhand discomfort for you and feels your cries in his deep in his core cuz ur in pain and he doesn't like that 😕

this might sound weird, but i see him bringing his portable gaming system to the hospital so you can play with him and get ur mind off things

not saying his feeling towards the baby will change after the birth, but he'll definitely be like "oh wow 😳" when the baby is first born

have u ever seen that clip of steve irwin first looking at bindi when shes born and hes all amazed and awestruck by her?

its like that but its less noticeable and its more like "this is my child?"

a little scared to hold the baby at first because he's afraid to drop her

but once he does he'll look down at it and be like "ur not so bad afterall 😪"

DEFINITELY doesn't get any sleep during the first few months because he'll for some reason take late night feedings/crying upon himself

hes all "ur such a pain bro 😒" while rocking the baby back and forth to soothe it, all cuddly and gentle with it

tbh i cant decide whether it be a girl or boy so its up to reader to decide

omg hes mortified after the first belch spit hes gone afterwards

literally condemns the baby to hell

hates changing diapers but does it for the sake of the baby's comfort and health

when he's alone with the baby, he'd be like "ur kinda ugly 🤔" while playing around with it

tbh i see him getting random bouts of urges to play with the baby and speaking to it in a baby voice secretly

gets really embarrassed if hes caught and acts like it never happened

when ur not there to watch the baby while he's gaming he'll actually be okay with the baby sitting in his lap while he games

if he wins he'll be all "lets goooo 😝" all up in the babies face 😭 lifting it up into the air and just being such a gamer dad

also starts teaching the baby how to play games real early on, making them hold a controller or something and teaching them game logistics

the baby is like 5 months old and doesn't know about taxes but knows about dnd 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️

i see him like announcing the birth of his kid to his followers/fans a couple weeks after the birth

only shows what the baby looks like when its like 6 months old and crawling all in the background, he'll turn around and be like "wanna see my baby?", lift up the baby and put it's face all up close into the camera 😭

does 0.5 and only 0.5 photos on the thing 😅

does a couple more streams afterwards when he "games" with the baby and blame loosing on the poor thing 😅

aw i can see him and the baby having matching outfits when he goes out with it

he's not the best dad, but he'll try his hardest

on a sweet note, if kenma feels lonely when ur away, he'll allow the baby to sleep in the bed he shares with you as a "substitution" and cuddle with it

yk that tiktok audio that goes "leave me alone baby 😒" and then goes "ur my baby i love you ☹️☹️🥰😘" yeah that hes that

[nonbinary-eddie-munson]

Steve is Robins beard/no upside down AU where Robin and Steve run away and get married after Robin graduates because she gets outed in the last few weeks of highschool and its the only way to stop her parents from sending her to a christan all girls college.

Originally the cover up plan is for Robin and Steve to tell her parents that they just recently started dating and a girl in band started the rumor about Robin being a lesbian because she was jealous and hoped it would make Steve and Robin break up. They can fake date and then "break up" after Robin goes off to college in Chicago, claiming the distance was too much.

Robins mom is fully ready to accept this as fact, after all it will do so much for their status in town if her daughter marries into the Harrington family

Robins dad, on the other hand, hates the idea of his only daughter being with the son of Richard Harrington. He watched the bastard play with his sisters heart in highschool before running off to marry some rich girl and will be damned if he sees the same happen to his daughter. No it will be better if he put an end to all of this and ships her off to Mount Saint Marys so she never has to see the Harrington boy again.

Cue Robin and Steve aided by Joyce and Hopper making a plan for them to run away because Steve will be damned if all of Robins dreams are crushed because her father wants to be an over protective asshole. They decide the easiest way to stop her dad from tracking them down and forcing Robin to come home is if they get married.

So the night after graduation, Robin sneaks out of her house and steals away into the night with Steve. They drive all night until they make it to chicago as the sun is rising. Joyce has a cousin who lives in the city and is willing to let Robin and Steve stay in her spare room until they get settled.

Carina has the same motherly warmth as Joyce, though she never married or had kids instead choosing to live with her " Capital R Roomate" Marjorie. Of course, the two women know the truth of Robin and Steves situation and as soon as the court house opens, they bear witness as Steve and Robin sign the marriage papers and offically become Steve and Robin Buckley-Harrington

They actually fought quite a bit on last names Steve insisting that he should take the last name Buckley because fuck his parents, while Robin still angry at her father wanted to become a Harrington just to spite him. Carina is the one who convinces them to hyphenate after, to her horror and amusement they suggest combining their lastnames and becoming the Buckington's (Steves idea) or the Harringley's (Robins idea)

Steve and Robin find jobs together at a local coffee shop and after Robins first semester at school working towards a degree in linguistics, Steve decides to apply for community college eventually deciding he wants to become a school councilor, he loves working with kids and hey if he can help atleast one kid all the schooling will be worth it.

Steve and Robin love the city and once they both graduate -Robin ending up adding a teaching degree in with her linguitics- they get jobs teaching at a local middle school Steve as the guidance counciler and Robin teaching French and Latin. They talk briefly about getting divorced after a few years but after almost dying in a fire together when starcourt burned down they're trauma bonded for life, honestly steve doesnt know who he was kidding thinking he'd be fine staying in Hawkins until the kids graduated while Robin went off to Chicago.

Carina and Marjorie introduce Robin and Steve to the queer scene in Chicago and Steve has his bisexual awakening. Robin becomes Steves beard just as much as he is hers. They both date around a bit, but nothing serious ever comes of it theres not many people who can handle the combined force that is "Steve And Robin Platonic With A Capital P Soulmates"

Enter professional substitute teacher/drama club advisor Eddie Munson and brand new lead journalist of the Chicago Tribune Nancy Wheeler, who are both confused, gay and unwilling to be homewreckers but cant help but to be sucked into Robin and Steves orbit all the same

THE MOVE IN

Jamie Drysdale

Mah lil pookie wookie

“And you’re sure they’d be all right with me staying with you for the month?” I ask nervously as Jamie smoothly shifts gears and toggles the clutch. My apartment had grown a water leak and a mold infestation because of that leak so I’d been forced to move out. While my parents live in California; they aren’t stationed in Anaheim but in San Francisco. Almost a 12 hour drive away.

I’d offered to rent out a hotel room but Jamie hearing of my dilemma and being my boyfriend was nearly upset at the fact I was going to a hotel before asking to stay with him, “I’m sure; the guys love you. And they all understand that situation. Least from what they’ve told me” he looks at me and smiles before turning his attention back to the road.

“I just don’t want to encroach on guy time” I admit, I hear him sigh gently and move his hand to pat my thigh before going back to keeping his hand on the stick.

We pull up to his shared home with a few of the guys on the team, those who weren’t living with their girlfriends or wives. Jamie takes my bags from the trunk of the car, “Jesus how do you have so much stuff” he grunts; he sees my concerned expression and immediately cuts in with, "no oh sweet thing I'm joking" He looks at me sympathetically and drops my bags gently so he can wrap me into a soft kiss.

I breathe a sigh of relief as I help him carry my things into his room, “ah Drysdales wife is here” Trevor teases as he steps out of the kitchen.

I smile softly at him and wrap him into a soft hug, “I brought my recipe book if y’all want me to make waffles” I tell him and he excitedly grins at me.

“Jams whatcha eatinn” Trevor asks as he leans on Jamie’s shoulder; he bats his eyes at him. Obviously asking for a bite of whatever his friend was eating for a late home packed brunch.

“Oh uh. Y/n made me some blueberry waffles.. you want?” Jamie guiltily offers half of his waffle to his friend who easily scarfs the half down. Trevor’s eyes widen and he nods in approval.

“You need to marry her. And have a lot of babies. Mostly. Wife her up because if you don’t. I will” Trevor says; almost instantaneously. Jamie simply stares at him, almost astonished at Trevor’s confession.

“Trev— I’ve only been dating her for maybe a uh year?”

“Marriage”

“If Jamie doesnt marry you. I will” Trevor admits winking at Jamie.

The weeks pass as they always do, it’s weird waking up to someone else. Jamie’s arms wrap around my waist his thumb toying with the band of my panties. Somehow it’s so comforting being able to wake up next to him. I roll onto his stomach throughout the night. His hands go from resting on my butt to sliding underneath my tank top and resting on my shoulder blades.

“G’mornin” I’m the first to rise and Jamie always rolls over tucking his head against my chest, my hands slide up and tangle themselves into his thick brown hair.

“I don’t wanna wake up” He groans wrapping himself around me and anchoring me down into the plush bedding.

“I know baby, but I promised the team I would make breakfast for everyone. You can sleep a bit more” I tell him wiggling out from underneath him but still tucking him back into bed and placing a kiss onto his forehead.

It’s about ten in the morning when the boys and their significant others start arriving. The house fills with chatter and the clinking of utensils as I serve the eggs and bacon and pancakes.

Jamie comes down, rubbing his eyes and quickly finding me flipping the pancakes in the pan. He groans softly resting his head on my shoulder and sliding up behind me and rubbing my stomach underneath my shirt, “I can’t sleep without you” he whispers in my ear.

“You want some coffee?” I offer him my little mug.

“Yeah” He sighs against my skin taking my mug and drinking it, “I’m gonna go see the guys”

About a month later my apartment is ready but Jamie’s being weird about me moving back in, “somethings going on” I fish around as I start packing my things back up

“I guess” he shrugs reaching for my hand, “Instead of going back to your apartment.. what if. We buy a house, or an apartment. And officially move in together” he asks

“Really?”

“Yeah. I wanna marry you. Not right now but eventually”

“Seriously?”

“Yes”

🎉🎉

[gendrie]

not only do i think gendry will be unbothered by arya being a warg i think theres of tons of stuff to compare and contrast between arya’s bond to nymeria and her dynamic with gendry. 

"There are some things I do not need to be told. Even a blind man could see that wolf would never have left you willingly." "We had to throw rocks," she said miserably. "I told her to run, to go be free, that I didn't want her anymore. There were other wolves for her to play with, we heard them howling, and Jory said the woods were full of game, so she'd have deer to hunt. Only she kept following, and finally we had to throw rocks. I hit her twice. She whined and looked at me and I felt so 'shamed, but it was right, wasn't it? The queen would have killed her." (Arya, AGOT)

nymeria and arya share a soul. the bond between a warg and their wolf is compared to that of a marriage. this is the closest arya will ever be to another being because they literally share a consciousness. arya feels what nymeria feels, sees what she sees, tastes what she tastes, ect. arya is forced to leave nymeria in the riverlands after the incident on the trident. arya goes from believing nymeria is the only one who loves her to fearing her own wolf will hate her. she is filled with doubt in herself and her identity without her wolf. but no matter how strained nymeria is still a tether to arya’s true name. 

when she meets gendry he becomes that too. 

"Lommy and Hot Pie can't know," she said. "They won't," he swore. "Not from me." "Arya." She raised her eyes to his. "My name is Arya. Of House Stark." (Arya, ACOK)

among the night’s watch recruits arya ends up seeing gendry as someone she can confide in. he is wanted by the crown - same as arya. because of this arya tells gendry her true name. to everyone else she is arry, weasel, and nan but gendry knows the truth. gendry sees the real arya and she can be herself with him. gendry never betrays arya to anyone and even actively protects her identity from others. 

She was no little girl in the dream; she was a wolf, huge and powerful, and when she emerged from beneath the trees in front of them and bared her teeth in a low rumbling growl, she could smell the rank stench of fear from horse and man alike. (Arya, ASOS)

"She's my sister." Gendry put a heavy hand on the old man's shoulder, and squeezed. "Leave her be." The man turned, spoiling for a quarrel, but when he saw Gendry's size he thought better of it. (Arya, ASOS)

he doesn’t just protect her identity either. nymeria and gendry both protect arya from harm. gendry actually has more opportunity to look out for arya as he is a closer companion, but nymeria comes thru too. she cuts the bloody mummers off after they are sent to recapture arya and the boys. 

Arya bit her lip. He means to leave me too.

As Arya was cinching her saddle girth, Gendry came up to say that he was sorry. She put a foot in the stirrup and swung up into her saddle, so she could look down on him instead of up. You could have made swords at Riverrun for my brother, she thought, but what she said was, "If you want to be some stupid outlaw knight and get hanged, why should I care? I'll be at Riverrun, ransomed, with my brother." (Arya, ASOS)

but like nymeria, gendry is left behind. first, he chose to join the bwb and arya is hurt by his choice. she lashes out with her words. she pushes him even further away not unlike throwing the rocks at nymeria. its really reminiscent of arya telling nymeria she didnt want her anymore. she doesnt mean it. she wanted him to stay with her just like she wanted nymeria. then, arya is kidnapped by the hound. then, she flees westeros altogether. 

gendry and nymeria remain in the riverlands. nymeria hunts around the trident where she was left by arya. gendry is posted at arya’s last known location: the inn at the crossroads. this is no accidental posting. he is there for arya. boy and wolf both remain steadfast despite her disappearance. 

the groups that both belong to have increasingly dark reputations. nymeria’s pack has long been feared by those in the riverlands. a reputation which has actually been blown out of proportion, but they can do damage. the brotherhood start off with good intentions until lady stoneheart’s reign at which point their mission takes a darker turn. 

gendry follows the undead remnants of catelyn stark and he follows the god that brought her back. he has seen magic. he is no stranger to that part of the world. arya being a warg is no weirder than the dead walking. at some point she will be reunited with her wolf and her blacksmith boy. the direwolves have often been used to signify the starklings feeling towards other so i think a meeting between the two would be meaningful. 

[jams-sims]

I wrote a whole ass essay for Philza now Im gonna do it for Jaiden. In defense of the lack of content with Jaiden in it (real quick). Being an old goat of fandoms I can explain it (don't worry this won't take long and also it plays into her character's overarching narrative of a grieving mother.) Plain in simple women in Minecraft are notorious for getting shit on by the collective fandom. (Everyone has to take part in making sure that it stops happening.) She is mainly a YouTuber which makes a dissonance between mainly youtube viewers and Twitch watchers. So it's harder to catch her just because you have to go to another site. Also, she doesn't stream as often as everyone else. This makes for a lack of content, just because Jaiden is just a low-key person. This is the recipes for a lack of content BUT that does not excuse people who are being weird to her or think she's in the way of any ships etc etc.

BUT

Narratively speaking all of those things above make for perfect storytelling. (below the cut I go deep into Jaiden character I mean I go DEEP)

Even though Jaiden has the support of the whole island. At the end of the day- she goes back to that same house. Climbs to the very top and she fall asleep on the chair facing the sunset. This means that everyone else has moved on, especially Roier. She is forever stuck in that same place.

I can't be the only one who noticed every single stream, she logs out at the house. BY HERSELF (I think Roier built? Someone corrects me if I'm wrong.) It's so subtle that you wouldn't even notice it at first.

When asked where she was living by Etolies. She doesnt say her and roier house, she doesn't even say where bobby use to live. She specifically says " I am squating in Roier old house". She puts herself on the outskirts of what is further from the truth. Shes not squating in roier house im 100% sure Roier shares everything with her. It is her home too!

Next when it came to the marriage between cellbit and Roier. She was surprised that she was even invite. Its as if as soon as Bobby died all her friendships and relationships died with him. No matter how many people are around her she has this ice wall of isolation and deep lonely-ness.

Her grieiving is less theratical than Charlies its so sudtle that you can miss it. While Roier throw himself into drink and into a relationship. (Which has admitedly worked out in his favor. He gets a husband a new son, a world of love. Something that can lessen the sting of Bobbys death.)

Jaiden on the other hand threw herself into a a impossible task, "protect the eggs." She doesn't know anything about any group or fractions. That is her only wish and the federation saw that and picked her to use. She has nothing everyone else has seemingly moved on of course. They haven't stopped investigating but they death of Bobby mostly everyone has moved on. Besides Jaiden this is her driving force so no one will suffer like she did. (on a side note her and Charlie should team up for lore and to both work for the federations.)

ITS PREFECT! Oh are you greiving has everyone else seemingly moved on? Your friendly neighborhood bear has a book full of instructions. Don't think, I'll guide you.

Before it fell apart the federation was going to secretly use Jaiden and she was going to do everything alone. But because Jaiden can't keep a secret to save her life. This leads to everyone realizing how at risk Jaiden is at being used. They are all with her in an instant. But part of her character is now that she sides with the Fedration and no one sees it yet. While everyone else think they are the bad guy. Her story is shifting because cucurucho is there, because cucurucho is nice to her, because Jaiden is cucurucho favorite.

She is being drawn in whether she knows it or not to be om their side. Think of it this way-

Fit is team: Spy thats off the island

Cellbit and Crew are team: AntiFederation

Jaiden the one that is left alone is the perfect choice to slowly pull her onto the federation side. It's perfect! The self isolation, the want to connect but feeling like she can't. It would be so easy for someone to take advantage of that.

Hello,how are u?

I've been a fan of your writing for a while now,and im really in need of some comfort

If you can,could u pls write a oneshot gojo x fem!reader where reader is also a sorcerer and one year younger than gojo and they've been friends for so long,and one day reader's mother talks about her marrying someone she doesnt like (her mother tells it from kindness) and it messes reader up to the point of panic attack and crying?and she calls satoru so he could help her calm down?

(you decide whether reader and gojo are in a secret relationship or not.)

Im in need of comfort rn and i would love to see ur writing on this matter

Kaleidoscope Series—Love Me Now, Love Me Never Chapters: {Pacify Her}

—Gojo Satoru X Sorcerer Reader

𑁍 Synopsis:

"Dear..." Your mother's voice called you, and her eyes held you in softness. 

"Why didn't you ask me, first Mother?" Your heart felt as if it was made of sand collapsing as you realise the betrayal.

"Because we know this will be your reaction. You work tirelessly, barely coming home. I simply wish for someone to care for you. Someone who will look out and care for you."

"I could take care of myself." Your eyes watered. Why? Why are you deciding on my life without my opinion?

𑁍 Genre: angst to comfort, traditional arrange marriage

𑁍 WC/CW/TW: (2k)— spoilers for anime only! mentions of teen years & Hidden Inventory Arc, arrange marriage, secret relationship— use of endearments (baby and sweetheart), crying, locking self in the closet, implied panic

𑁍 A/N: Hi sweetheart, work has been keeping me, I'm sorry that this one took a while even though I tried to do it as soon as possible, I hope everything will get better soon and this one helps to comfort you. Sending you a very tight hug! —Grey,

He's obnoxious.

Gojo Satoru in his teens is a menace. One that crawls up on you every time he spots your shadow to pull your hair and poke fun at you.

You've known the man since your first year in college. Nanami often looks at you in worry and helplessness whenever Gojo Satoru comes over to tease you. Haibara looks up to him and would often join in the fun, unbeknownst of your irritation.

Good old day, you've come to treasure deep in your heart. When everything was easier. When life seems to be lighter.

You came from a fairly influential sorcerer clan. Prized for your reversed curse technique that paved your way in the jujutsu society in the less physical struggle over brutal means. But that didn't spare you from stomaching the horrendous scenes curses can inflict. Haibara was the catalyst of your life's turning point.

Everyone started falling out. You see your raven-haired senior left without a goodbye, leaving nothing but the biggest tragedy in your generation. Nanami left as well, unable to take the bullshit of the people behind the power sacrificing the lesser ones as pawns to maintain their status and influence. And Satoru...

"Are you leaving?"

On a cold night, he found you staring at the stars under the tree nearby the training grounds. A bag strapped on your back, and normal clothes you'd wear for your day off. You could see exhaustion brimming around him even though he was in the shadows.

"Everything is in shambles." You sighed, tucking your chin on your knees. "Are youleaving?" You watch him slip his hands into the pockets of his pants and look up at the sky.

You watch your senior's face, he looks so young as you trace his jaws to the softness of his cheeks, the faint glimmer in his ocean eyes from the slit of his sunglasses holds the weariness he has to suppress for so long, slipping through the night.

You have to think again that this man is just a year older than you, still, a teenager in adolescence that is forced to play soldier. Gojo Satoru has become so distant you can barely recognize the youth despite the pretty face he has.

"I can't." He answered after a long time.

And you just know the indifference of that answer. The feeling of being unable to walk away despite wanting to.

"Thought so. Guess we have a long time annoying each other, senpai." You chuckled and stood up, dusting yourself and turning in the direction of the dorm you started walking.

A force collided against your back and your ears are being rubbed until you squirm and glare at the perpetrator.

"Uh-huh? Looking forward to that brat." He just grinned and ruffled your hair.

You can't pinpoint it anymore. Was it when you covered him with your overcoat so he could just hide and swallow his exhaustion as you sit beside him, holding his hands inside his Infinity? Or was it when he started finding you every day, dragging you with him and Shoko? Or was it when he took your hand and your heart felt at peace amid the chaos?

"I'm tireddddddd~" Satoru let out a long sigh and rub his face against your back while his long arms wrapped around your waist, keeping you perched on his thighs.

"Satoru, there are people outside!" You tried squirming away, even pinching the man off of you but to no avail. He's latched unto you like a leech. It's so embarrassing to be caught like this, the only ones who knew are Ijichi, Shoko, and Principal Yaga. Other than that, you're viewed as Satoru's favorite kouhai. Unbeknownst to them, you and this menace have been going out since you were 19.

"Who cares?" He pulled down his blindfold and batted those pretty lashes. Satoru blew you a kiss and giggled at your sour expression. "How could you be so cute? Just like me." He coos at you.

You turned away huffing with your arms crossed over your chest and let yourself be cradled into your beau's arms.

"I have to go to the ancestral house later, my Mom asked me to come. Just reheat the food I left in the fridge and don't stay up late."

Satoru nodded and shifted you to the side, tucking your head underneath his chin.

"Should I pick you up?" Satoru quietly asked, even though he already knows the answer.

"No, they'll get suspicious." You bit your lip. "I'm sorry..."

It's been years and yet your relationship is kept behind the curtains. Satoru has never thought he'd be one to be kept a secret, but after your persuasions even though he badly wants to drive off the men lurking around you whenever they think you're single. Risking your safety to prove your relationship is not enough, he agreed this is for the best.

"Nothin' for you to be sorry for sweetheart." Satoru kissed the top of your head. "Just call me when you're done then I won't worry much."

Being brought up in a more dynamic and liberated childhood, growing up, you know you had it easier than other sorcerers. Your clan may not be part of the elites, but it is an established and recognized clan that is important to the jujutsu society for the special ability of reversed curse technique.

"Mother," you called the regal woman talking with your distant relative.

"Dear, we've been waiting for you. How about you changed into comfortable clothes first then look for us in the study?" She smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes.

You did as you were told, changing into a furisode prepared for you and led down to the study. When you opened the door you found your grandmother, and mother waiting inside. Seeing the stern look on your grandmother's face you suddenly felt the pressing matter this talk is about to make. Your heart pounded and anxiousness started filling you up as you took a seat across from your mother.

"It's the time for you to get married Y/n. Do you like any man right now?"

"G-Grandmother?" You stuttered and look at the straight-faced woman in disbelief. Her eyes held nothing but seriousness. It's as if he could slice through anything with her gaze.

"You've never brought a man home, I'm afraid you'll be a spinster if I do not intervene. The son of the Chiba Clan is a proper and respectable man. He can provide for you and keep you safe." There's finality in her voice that has no room for your reason. When you look at those eyes, you see your Grandmother has already finished everything before you could speak anything about this matter. "Life is short, in this world we're moving. Don't waste that time being all alone." Your Grandmother stood up and pat your shoulder, she quietly left the study leaving you and your mother.

"Dear..." Your mother's voice called you, and her eyes held you in softness. 

"Why didn't you ask me, first Mother?" Your heart felt as if it was made of sand collapsing as you realise the betrayal. You never want to be angry at her. You know she loves you and looks out for the best of your interest. But this one simply breaks your heart.

"Because we know this will be your reaction. You work tirelessly, barely coming home. I simply wish for someone to care for you. Someone who will look out and care for you."

"I could take care of myself." Your eyes watered. Why? Why are you deciding on my life without my opinion?

Your mother looks at you, and sadness clouds in her eyes. "I'm very sorry, but please try. You give yourself away too much in your work, is it so bad to wish that you have someone stay by your side?"

"No mother. But I—" Satoru's face flashed in your mind. Really, you were just scared to be used out of political means so you hid your relationship. You knew it was unfair to Satoru who loved you regardless of anything but he never asked you to go against your principles just to give in his wishes. He has always valued you more than anyone's opinion. "—I will never any man besides the one I chose."

Your tears threatening to spill. But you kept it in. And walk out of the door despite your mother's call. You ran to your room, having a hard time keeping yourself focused from the trembling of your hand.

You shut your door and ran to the closet, squeezing yourself inside the large and dark wooden wardrobe. With shaking hands, you held your phone and ran through your call logs. Every ring you feel your heart hammer against the cages of your chest, your feet getting cold despite the socks. Static ringing through your ears.

"Baby? You coming home?" Satoru's groggy voice, answered.

A sense of relief flooded you as you listen to the faint shuffling in the background. You wanted to cry, but you bit your lips so you could hear his breathing. 

"Sweetheart? Somethin' wrong?"

"'T-Toru," you hiccuped, angry at yourself for sobbing hard.

"Why are you crying? Where are you?" Worry filled in his voice. "I'm coming to get you." You heard hurried footsteps and the slight panic in his voice.

"Baby? Are you there? Don't hang up alright?"

"Toru, 'T-Toru, Toru," you chanted in desperate sobs, grounding yourself in his name despite the darkness you're in.

"Yes Baby, I'm here. On my way to fetch you. Calm down alright. I'm here."

You shut your eyes close. Wishing the next second you open it Satoru is in front of you. But every second that ticks, the colder your palm gets, the harder your heart pounds, dreading the mere idea of marrying a stranger you barely know. Your throat is constricted, and your chest heaves out the intangible pain seeping into your heart.

To give up Satoru? Not a chance.

"Open up baby," the call turned off and a knock bumped your wardrobe. "We're going home, sweetheart." You could hear the panting that the person is trying hard to mellow down and calm his voice.

The door opened and Satoru squatted down. His clothes are disheveled from the hurry. Your bleary eyes locked on him and you saw his shoulders slacken, but they immediately squared up as he beckon you out of the closet.

"C'mere."

You didn't have to be told twice, crawling out and into his arms, your clutch his shirt as his arms wound around you.

"What happened? Tell me so I can understand what upset you, sweetheart." He coos to you, settling you between his propped knees while pressing a kiss on your temple.

His cool spicy scent invaded your panicking senses. The more you listen to his heart the slower your breathing gets and eventually, you're pushing yourself closer to him, throwing your arm around Satoru's neck.

"They thought I'm not in a relationship and arranged a marriage partner for me."

You felt Satoru's grip over you tighten. He didn't speak but you could feel his sour mood.

"Are you scared?" He moves you to look him in the eye. A flicker pass through his eyes, but before you could recognize it, that pained glint was gone.

"I'm upset." You replied honestly.

You know your mother never meant to hurt you. But your family is meddling in your life too much that it's not even needed. How could they decide on it before asking you when you'll be the one living that marriage?

"Who am I, baby?" Satoru cup your cheeks and pressed your foreheads together.

"You're Gojo... you're my Satoru." You whispered, warmth spreading in your chest.

"Mnn, that's right. Who would dare take you away when you have me, sweetheart?" Satoru opened his eyes and could see the steeled resolve in those ocean eyes.

Round 1B: Arya Stark vs. Sansa Stark (A Song of Ice and Fire)

Propaganda below the cut

Arya Stark:

Arya is a young girl who is seperated from her family, and lives through an active war zone during a bloody civil war. She kills people to survive, and recounts a list of people that she wants dead for their part in killing her family and taking her sister Sansa (who i also submitted) hostage. She later moves to Braavos, which is not a war zone, where she trains to become an assasin, but also must give up her identity to do so. However, Arya fails at this through her magical connection to her direwolf Nymeria and her love of her family, mostly her brother Jon. She also has a tendency to act as judge jury and executioner on people. You see people say that she is "too far gone" and pit her agaisnt her sister Sansa.

----

Some people really hate her idk why? She gets constantly compared to her sister sansa, who's supposedly more gentle and polite

The horrors of war that Arya goes through are usually ignored in favour of discourse on whether she should feel guilty for killing to escape her hostage situation

She's called willful and ugly and dumb and a serial killer devoid of emotions when it's so clear in her chapters that she cares so so much and she only wants to go home to her family

Sansa Stark:

Ok so she's doing some mean things in the first book (lying, saying she "forgot" if her fiance attacked her sister or the other way around) and ratting out her father's plan to Cersei the evil queen™ so she's annoying in the first book

After, she's a child hostage in a court where she has 0 ally apart from maybe the creepy guy who sees her as both the child he never had and his crush (who is sansa's mother)

And she's constantly hated on and getting call names

----

Sansa is constantly accused of betraying her family and causing her father’s death despite being 11 at the time of his death. People hold her responsible for the actions of the real villains around her and claim that she deserves every bad thing that happened to her because she chose power over family. Her innocence was manipulated and then ripped away from her in a series of events no one could have predicted (and that’s literally why the series is popular, because no one saw it coming) but she is blamed for not knowing the outcome of these events. Her childhood is denied to her, both in and out of universe.

----

Sansa is 11 when she tells her future mother in law who she trusts that her father is taking her and her sister out of the city because she doesnt want to leave. Despite the fact that her father was not going to leave the city, fans say she should have been executed along side her father for betraying her. It was also common for people to blame her for not loving Tyrion enough, after she was forced into marrying an adult man who is part of the family that killed her parents, brothers, and beat/publically humiliate her on a regular basis. She is "a moon away from turning 13" when the marriage occurs

"Breaks in emperor new groove style" YOURE BACK!

Can I request reader who is the daughter of typhon the king of monster im pretty sure.

Despite being a legendary monster typhon truely loves and cares about his daughter as he sees her as the only good he has ever done since she takes the most after he mother who was human.

Reader wants to fight for humanity a fight she keeps from her father who doesnt want her to face any harm.

But the moment the battle starts the whole tournament shakes as her father appears surrounding the building.

Typhon is seen as a snake like being so he would definitely threaten to crush each of the gods that came up with ragnarok for involving his daughter in such a fight.

I wanna see how the gods and humans would react to readers parent being a giant snake and king of monsters and maybe see them go up to her father to ask fof his permission to court her

Thank you and good night!

-Many knew the name Typhon, as well as his numerous titles, with the most notable being King of the Monsters- a fearsome serpent monster that even many of the gods feared.

-Many, on the other hand, didn’t know that he had a daughter, a beautiful child who took after her mortal mother more, looking mostly human, despite the tremendous power she held inside.

-You were Typhon’s daughter, beautiful, powerful, intelligent, and very well protective. Your father was… a ‘little’ protective of you, as he never wanted to see you hurt.

-This grew to be more of an issue as you grew into a beautiful young maiden, stunning all with your refreshing and natural good looks, as you gained many admirers.

-Admirers that Typhon didn’t believe were worthy of you, threatening them in the shadows, hiding away so nobody knew who you were related too.

-You appreciated your father’s protectiveness, as you knew he just wanted you to be safe, but there were times where he was rather stifling- you just wanted to be like the other girls your age, dating and finding potential marriage partners!

-You couldn’t do that with Typhon glaring from behind you, scaring everyone else off.

-Your chance came in the form of a fighting tournament, one that left humanity’s fate balancing on the edge of destruction- not your ideal place to meet a man, but it was a start and your father had no idea you were there or that you were going to fight!

-You knew you were powerful, you were your father’s daughter after all, and Brunnhilde was stunned but also extremely happy when you told her that you wanted to fight for humanity.

-Humans were beings you adored, as you admired their power, their determination to fight and survive- it was breathtaking to see them willing to fight so hard for their lives and the lives of others. It made you wish that the gods were more like humans- then maybe this tournament wouldn’t be happening.

-Many cheered for you when you walked out, waving up at the crowds, a bright smile on your face, despite you fighting for humanity, but you were only a demi-god, so you could fight for either side.

-Your opponent came out and grinned across the arena, flirting with you, “Let’s hope you fight as good as you look!”

-A deep rumble overtook the arena, shaking the grounds around and everyone was quickly screaming in fear, demanding to know what was going on.

-You groaned deeply, your head falling back as a massive shadow coiled around the top as a massive serpent surrounded the arena and many of the gods were opening gawking in fear, seeing Typhon there.

-He growled darkly, baring his massive fangs, “You all- what is the meaning of this tournament? And what do you mean by making my precious little princess fight?”

-You exhaled deeply in annoyance, “Dad~~~!!” he instantly changed his tune as he looked at you, “My sweet little Y/N- they didn’t hurt you did they? Did they force you to do this? YOU BASTARDS!!! Stop this tournament immediately!!!”

-The arena shook with his anger as Typhon was quickly threatening the strongest there, Zeus and Odin, to stop the tournament before he destroyed all of them!

-You were embarrassed, sighing deeply, as you wanted to fight, you wanted to test your strength but he had to go and ruin it again!

-The tournament was called off and you refused to speak to your father, pouting childishly as he tried to figure out what was wrong.

-A voice then called out and you turned, seeing (Love) there, and your eyes lit up, smiling brightly as he came over, “I was disappointed that you didn’t get to fight- I know you would have won though!”

-Typhon glared darkly from behind you, trying to intimidate (Love), seeing him flirting with you before you turned, glaring up at your papa, “Oh no you don’t! You’re not scaring him off like you’ve done all the others!”

-Typhon was panicking, seeing you defending another man, “Y/N- what are you saying? Is this man courting you?!” he looked ready to instantly wipe (Love) out to looking at you in such a way.

-(Love) didn’t show that he was scared if he was, looking up at your father, “I wish to court her, Lord Typhon! May I have your-” Typhon instantly answered, tears in his eyes at the thought of losing you, “YOU CAN’T HAVE ANYTHING!!”

-You pouted, instantly grabbing (Love)’s hand, “C’mon (Love), we’re leaving!” Typhon panicked, seeing you walking away, “Don’t leave me Y/N!!”

-You came back to your father after a nice date with (Love), who took you to a flower garden and a café, seeing him in a large pile of his coiled body, gloom and darkness surrounding him as he sobbed loudly, lamenting that he was losing you.

-You tapped his back and he turned, instantly his mood changed, looking elated, “You came back!” you giggled up at him, “Of course I did- you’re my papa! But… if you make him leave…” you didn’t finish, glaring darkly up at him which made him gasp in pride, “Glaring just like your old man! I’m so proud of you!”

-You rolled your eyes but you couldn’t help but smile- your father really was too much at times.

[horizon-verizon]

To all the green/Alicent/Aegon/Aemond/Criston stans choosing to follow me of your own free will, make sure you're making the right choice bc you will see stuff that will likely upset you.

No, I do not think Rhaenyra was a whore or that her sexuality somehow makes or breaks her inherent moral character (this is a patriarchal invention that places more power in men over women's behavior bc as long as they have the political and legal advantage over women [as what has happened in many societies for millennia] it compels women to conform their overall behavior towards not even seeming to resemble the man's/larger developed ideas of "slut" rather than develop herself or have her own fun). And if a man can still be a good leader while having sex outside of marriage, if we truly look at woman as equal and inherently equal to men no matter the time period or place, then we should consider the same when women have sex outside of marriage! Reminder: Aegon SA or rapes; Rhanerya never once did that. which goes into my next point...

No, show!Rhaenyra did not SA or really even pressure Criston into sex. I explain why HERE & below form a past ask-post:

No, her first 3 kids were not bastards. "Bastards" only exist in the legal realm to separate a man/lord's and his family's resources/titles to those who carry his "blood". On principle, you shouldn't be accepting the objectification of women that is necessary to this formula, but aside form that, the meaning of bastardy has been subject ot change ust as many social construction, as we se in the Anstey case ands how William the Conqueror's bastardy was more defined as being that his mother was not noble rather than not married to his father. Because bastardry is more a legal phenomena more than anyting, Viserys--who has the only right and power to name anyone as bastard or legitimize them and thus is the final bulwark against the revelation of the boys being not Laenor's kids--was able to accept Rhaenyra's kids as his heir's heirs. Nobles keep secrets all the time for their own conience. Think about Lysa tully and all those rich people of various TV show and movies who cover up both actual harmful crimes as well as just those that would harm their reputation! This is what happens when you have any elite class AND mid-to-very strict social rules of conduct that you may be breaking anyway. And no, noble/royal wives of history weren't all sexually obedient little cupcakes...many had lovers while married and historically, some were even known by their families and husbands. (Check out Eleanor Herman's book Sex with the Queen).

No, Alicent of either thing didn't have any real reason, material reason to think her kids were in danger from Rhaenyra ascending. You can see why under posts tagged "alicent doesnt have any points" as well as this recent thread]

No I do not see Rhaenyra as uniquely "selfish", "'spoiled", etc. I do not make as if she is unacceptably and uniquely evil or the most amoral. That was overall Andal-FM patriarchay, Aenys I, Maegor I, Jaehaerys I, Viserys, and the greens, esp Alicent & Otto. Rhaenyra, of either the shoe or the book, was both trying to do her duty in her marriage as well as find some happiness AND autonomy alongside that. You were not supposed to readopt fedual patriarchal social "values" or prioritize them/social hierarchies over real human happiness, equity, and social harmony. If you have, you don't get ASoIaF!

For fuck sake, some of you like Jon Snow and think he's Azor Ahai! No, he is not legitimate, bc by the time Rhaegar and his generation was alive, polygamy had lost its validity and for any marriage to Lyanna he could have had needed to be reinforced by either force (Maegor) or public declaration or propaganda & deals careful planning (Doctrine of Exceptionalism) something along those lines...which even if we get the story of Rhaegar and Lyanna, we already know no such preparations occurred!

[mrsjadecurtiss]

Otto saying he saw the office of being hand as nothing but a duty vs alicent being married to viserys and forced to sleep with him out of duty... alicent nervously picking her fingers vs otto nervously flexing his hands while talking heavy topics with viserys... both of their stiff and formal poses/behavior being locked into the confines of their social expectations as a woman (alicent pressured by her father, she has no power by herself) and a second son (otto pressured by his older brother, he stands to inherit nothing he cant grab for himself)...

(Because that is the order of things)

Contrasted with rhaenyra who is a woman but keeps rebelling against her father and postponing her expected duties, prefers to go her own path, rides her dragon and skips out on formal events and chooses to sleep with criston... and daemon who is also a second son but doesnt care about his marriage duties, rebels against his brother, is set on carving out his own path, enjoys himself where he can...

(Like their dragons, the Targaryens answered to neither gods nor men)

I adore how the two pairs are being crafted as foils in the show, the hightowers having to embrace playing by their society's rules (politicking, marriage bargains) as this is the only way they can achieve and wield power, being only of noble rank and of a lower branch of the house... meanwhile the targaryens own dragons and are the highest ranking people in the kingdom, giving them the freedom and power to rebel against the trappings of society with little consequence (daemon always getting away with a slap on the wrist for his exploits where otto gets fired for thinking about his own ambitions; rhaenyra still being in the kings graces despite all while alicent "destroys herself" under the immense pressure given to her knowing she cant afford to slip up...)

Entering book spoiler territory, even rhaenyra's marriages are unconventional arrangements, having bastards by a lover but it doesn't impact her marriage (laenor and harwin both are said to have been present at the bedside of luke's birth), and later she chooses her next husband in secret... Meanwhile Alicent lives the classic life of a noble lady, wed to a man she wouldn't have chosen for herself, forced to bear his children (bastards and adultery would be high treason)...

Even their sigils contrast, resembling classic fairytale imagery - the high tower, prison for its inhabitants (as they are imprisoned by their roles), locked to the earth (having to play by the rules); meanwhile the Targaryen dragon has the freedom to move, take to the skies, but also great power and danger...

Considering the hightower's story of ambition (trying to get aegon on the throne) and following downfall (none of alicent's descendants keep the throne, house appears to be less relevant in following history), the sigil also appears like a subtle biblical reference to the tower of babel, which tried to reach the sky and got struck down by god for hubris (as hightowers tried to reach into the targaryen's place).

[obsessivevoidkitten]

pls void, i cant find the a/b/o fic with the alpha hybrid general guy, i think he was part shark? with the subordinate omega reader. That ones one of my favs of yours,i hope you didnt remove it! I got massively inspired with a similar idea, definitely not trying to copy i just thought it would be a super cool dynamic for a space setting

like, space military general that thinks you're from a planet of inferior beings, maybe humans maybe something else, i love indulging in some nonhuman reader. i was thinking something along the lines of reader is an ace from their engineering/piloting/tactical school or whichever so they've been given a more prestigious rank than newcomers to this particular space task force / squad usually start at. This doesnt sit well with your new boss, general, commander, etc, so hes just lookin for a good excuse to switch your position or lower your rank until a mission goes wrong on a really dangerous planet and reader saves his life

it could be classic yan falls in love suddenly but i was thinking it could ALSO have a tie in to the general's alien race, cause of course hes gotta be a hulking, bulky tree of an alien man. maybe hes from a more stringent, militaristic type of society and risking your life to save his is basically his people's version of a marriage proposal. he knows you dont know this, and hes been helped out of messes by other people before, but theres just something extra incredible about a being he saw as so small and inferior suddenly turning into a murderous beast, to save the life of someone whos treated them so poorly. and damn if reader doesnt murder so sexily...

so he cooks up a scheme to make it look like reader died / went missing on a very serious exploration mission on a planet that happens to be within his home solar system and is beautiful but still wild and dangerous to go into the depths of without proper knowledge and preparation. it may be a stain on his reputation for being ruthlessly efficient with well planned missions that normally went off without a hitch, but he'll take the hit to his name to set up the perfect story to keep anyone from looking for you where he's sequestered you away in a gorgeous love nest that he can visit frequently.

i hope this isnt too close to your own idea ywy

The story you are looking for can be found HERE

I am flattered that you like it so much. I don't think yours is too similar.

[emoangel44]

very curious abt your noelle concept actually... as you said about your vintage wedding dress design. can you go into depth abt that i really wanna know the thoughts behind it!

okok.... i made a post about noelle and kris being "toxic relationship divorcecore" right after chapter 2 came out this post will be basically explaining what that means. the snowgrave (or weird route but i will use snowgrave as this refers specifically to the chapter 2 weird route and may not apply to later chapters) does a lot of cool shit (like if you want the "purposely mimicking a video game creepypasta" rant just ask) but my personal favourite is how it like... kind of forces a relationship between between kris and noelle.

in order activiate and/or get the most out of it in the first place you have to various things including:

1. give noelle a ring(s) for her to wear as a weapon

2. insist that you will ride the ferris wheel with her (which she usually does with susie. her crush)

3. steal noelles clothes and wear them yourself (her watch but still)

4. tell the shopkeeper you're "something else" instead of friends

all of these will make noelle very uncomfortable.

spamton also calls noelle a "hochi mama" (which is a word for "whore", basically) and your ""side chick". aswell as this, if you believe spamtons "hyperlink blocked" means love (which i personally do) he also makes a double-meaning comment about kris and noelle "making (love)".

after the snowgrave route noelle will start to notice kris first in a room when she usually always notices susie first (again. her crush).

my personal interpretation of this is that it is a method of trying to make you (the player) uncomfortable by effectively making you play a really weird game of smashing dolls faces together with characters you like who are having an awful time. it does this by kinda playing with both forced heteronormivity (by forcing the nonbinary kris into a masculine role and forcing noelle, likely a lesbian, into a weird straight-gender-roled relationship she doesnt want) and their family histories of unhappy marriages (with both asgore and toriel as well as rudy and mayor holiday). this is a subversion of how in the normal route you allow kris and noelle to reconnect and become closer in yknow... a normal way.

there is also an argument to be made that the same "make the player feel uncomfortable and bad for fucking up kris' life for their own desires" thing might also be being done with ralsei and his weird crush on kris/us? and him looking like fucking identical to asriel and that making us fans (the guys who made all those "save the goat" aus) want to get closer to him and making kris be not a fan of the fact a guy that looks like their brother keeps flirting with them and that it might be trying to play with like incest-baiting the same way the snowgrave stuff is with that other stuff i mentioned but yknow. not getting into that

[helluvabossrewrite45]

Thank you thank you for saying depth doesn't equal sympathetic. So what is you're rewrite on stella

Since stella has such little depth, I plan on expanding aspects of her character as well as her background in order to flesh her out more. Starting with her anger, from what we seen of her in the series, she's a very aggressive character who cares about status. So, I plan to expand on that with her backstory. You see, she was raised on a family that while very family oriented, also made status their main priority especially when they arrange their daughter to marry stolas without her agency which she goes along with regardless of not being interested in stolas at all just because she doesn't want to be judged (also the arranged marriage thing would be for continuing stolas's legacy where they would be 17-18, an idea inspired by lovesart23, i think hell would just see marriage as convenient rather than something precious like heaven would). So naturally, she strives for perfection, both herself and the people around here, and would scorn to people that dont conform to that perfection (such as stolas), she would be emotionally abusive towards stolas though more subtly for via not to notice it as abuse as well the as people around her not to notice this. She is condescending calm whenever she abuse stolas and only gets aggressive when he 'crosses the line' such as their daughter coming from surrogacy (since both clearly dont want to have sex with each other and stella decides to go through a surrogate out of pity for stolas) to which they made fun of her for doing so with making jokes like being useless, being non satisfying for stolas or the surrogate couldve replaced her if she didnt want to do her 'job' in which she takes it out on stolas, using one of the few times she shows kindness towards him as a weapon. As we can see there, she takes her frustrations out on stolas and acts like he is the one causing these problems because of their arranged marriage even when he himself was forced into it as well. The most recent 'crossing the line' is stolas cheating on her with an imp (which he did actually do) to which stella was furious of because a royal with an imp is unheard of and she knows she would be the blame for it (as seen with the surrogacy thing), causing her aggressiveness to go so high that she takes an extra step in wanting to murder stolas for ruining her life. She does reconsider eventually from her family informing her that they could still recover if she could 'show' that she fixed him from that which is what she tried to do but instead, gets divorced, which further the fury of news outlets as well as the family has with this (mostly stella's side of the family, stolas side of the family doesnt care for their marriage besides from another 'stolas' to take over the part and stolas screwing an imp), retaining her plan of murdering stolas through striker after all. Her relationship with octavia is like a strict teacher x student, because she doesnt exactly view her as a daughter, rather than an heir to the grimoire, encouraging her to keep studying and practicing the grimoire and would take her out to somewhere or buy her something if shes deemed 'worthy' to though have harsh scornings if she doesnt. At the end of the story though, she'll realise that she doesnt have anyone left, not her daughter, not her family, not even her brother...throughout how she treated the people around her, she remains alone...leaving her character open to what she do after. Her character is clearly not sympathetic but she does have at least some depth towards her that makes her character more effective in the story, which i hope i delivered well.

[ilynpilled]

cersei believes in the one soul in two bodies thing only if there are no purple eyed men available she’s hilarious tbh. like this is her raison d’etre…for the most part

i find her love of rhaegar pretty interesting. like i think she fixates on him specifically for a lot of reasons. i think she did kind of turn him into an idealized robert anti-thesis for herself, which makes sense. this is something she is reconjuring, rhaegar is not really real and grounded for her, never was, like she doesnt know him as a person, but it is much deeper than just her being drawn to a very beautiful surface. he is more of an idea and dream, a childhood crush that she clings onto now bc he does embody a lot of things that she deeply desires and was promised (and she is also losing a lot of her previous crutches atp, being particularly frustrated with jaime, and the whole jc divorce era kicking in full force in general). the idea of rhaegar represents a lot of things that she wants and was stripped of (things that she does ultimately desire more than jaime as a lover and individual): the romanticized queen position and status, the throne and power, a “perfect prince” that only exists as a memory now so she cannot be disillusioned by him, and even a potential source of love that was ofc absent within her abusive marriage. but yeah, i also believe that it further deconstructs the jaime and cersei destined lovers narrative, especially when she uses the same narrative with rhaegar when she frames it as something “the gods intended”. but also shes a bishonen enjoyer

[st4rrych111]

im not sure if this has been said on tumblr before but it actually fucks me up so badly the way anakin and obi wan both interpret their relationship so differently. here is my ramble of the night apologies in advance !

in attack of the clones, anakin says TO OBI WANS FACE that he is the closest he has to a father. it is such an earnestly raw passing comment to a dry comment obi wan makes but it says so much. little boy born out of virginity, no father in his life, being swept of to coruscant by qui gon whos dead before they can even leave. growing up under obi wans shaky guiding hands and even sleeping at the foot of his bed, still reeling from the loss of his only family. but

obi wan was only a padawan when he was entrusted with this little boy. the chosen one. a final request from his dying master no less and hes terrified and doesnt feel ready but he does it anyways. he worries about the most insignificant, fatherly things a man could- can anakin swim? he is protective and almost resents the way the council refuses to hear qui gons point of view, ignoring anakins feats in the force and status of the chosen one. obi wan KNOWS their relationship always pushed the master-student dynamic into something more familial, but he doesn't stop it. he tries so hard to help balance the duty of the order and anakins personal feelings, he even says so to padme in a deleted revenge of the sith scene, that he had ignored their marriage for the sake of anakins happiness. he wouldve done anything to fill that aching void in anakins chest that called out for a parent, but he was torn between what he was taught, what he felt about himself and what he felt was appropriate. and still,

obi wan only ever calls him his padawan, his brother, his anakin. he still felt like a kid when anakin was assigned. but then anakin gets older! hes a young man now and finds obiwans odd-brotherly-fatherly gaze too harsh. anakin is ready to turn away, to stop clawing for obi wans attention, his attachment the way he once did, wanting a different kind of approval, approval that will tell him hes ready to be a knight, a master, the best of the best. so obi wan tries resolving with a more brotherly relationship. closer to equals, although not quite which still upsets anakin

so of course, all of this comes to the front in revenge of the sith. "you were my brother anakin, i loved you." at that time, anakin really was his brother. anakin's yearning for a father had been quenched by palpatines manipulative affection. and now, obi wan was only the man that lead him, the man that kept him in the order. obi wan did love him, but it did not fulfil all of what anakin needed.

to obi wan, anakin is his brother. his little padawan, then his little brother.

to anakin, obi wan is his father. perhaps even his everything at one point. then he is his brother, from a distance. when obi wan is anakins brother, his father is palpatine. and then to anakin, obi wan is his enemy.
