cursor selkie sc (due to some unlikely plot contrivance) in god with a bag of groceries au would be so funny...bystanders watching god pass by with a bag of groceries, followed by tiny god with a packet of cookies. adorable.

ANON... YOUR MIND..........

[kiwiplaetzchen]

If you won't rub the cucumber, would you at least give it a good pat? It tried it's best today.

Just like you, my sweet Anon! 😌💚

[triptychofvoids]

hey i really think you should do an anon death counter if ya want... think it would be pretty cool...

all these dying anons remind me of 'dumb ways to die' except by the hands of medic tf2 lol

im not sure what the exact number would be at this point.. but considering the amount of anons that usually die either in posted asks or right in the askbox, it would not be a small one!!

[transmechanicus]

Kind of hard to ask as anon

But you doing ok?

Need to vent?

Hi very kind and thoughtful of you to ask, i am doing mmmmm suboptimal but i do not need to vent to a person per se, so much as i need to say absolutely insane shit in my tags and have everyone pretend not to see <3

[m1d-45]

Let it be known that I love writing fluff, and I listen to character audios sometimes. SO! I came up with a cute idea for sagau imposter au. I heard somewhere that Xiao's adeptus form is a bird, so I wonder, what kind of bird? And that got me thinking. Xiao being a little song bird, or perhaps even a cardinal.

Now imagine: while looking for the imposter, Xiao stumbles upon them sitting beneath a tree, just feeding some birds. Said birds are absolutely loving the attention since the creator of Teyvat is giving them food and love!

Xiao watches, rather curious. The creator he knows hates birds, because they always dive and cause problems for them. But now... these little birds have completely abandoned any fear they may hold for human beings, happily landing on the hands and shoulders of this supposed imposter.

So he decides to test something.

Xiao turns into a small bird and approaches cautiously. In his smaller form, he's vulnerable to attack. But the person before him doesn't try to hurt him. Rather, they smile and call him "little friend" as they offer food to him. In his distrust, he bites them with his sharp beak.

His heart shatters when he sees divine blood spilling from the wound.

He's about to fly away, get as far away from here as he can. He found the true creator, and instead of worshipping them, he bit them! He caused them to bleed, he shouldn't even be near them-!

His mind stills when they pet his feathered head.

They murmur kind words to him, apologizing to him. They believed that they had startled him, that he bit to protect himself. They forgave him, they felt no hatred towards him, no anger or disappointment. Instead, they offered some chopped almonds, hoping he'd prefer that over bird seed.

He sang for them as he perched on their shoulder.

After that, he did his best to secretly protect the creator he'd harmed. He would adopt his smaller form and sing for them when they felt sad, and he'd use his human form to guard them from a distance. Yes, it made his chest ache whenever they looked at him with fear when they saw his more human form, but the yaksha only shook it off. It only made sense that you'd be scared. He was a frightening person, one that had tried to harm you before. He refused to try and change your feelings towards him. He didn't have the right.

He would be content to sing for you as a harmless bird.

-sibling anon (sorry if this is out of character for him I just like the idea)

oh….. he’s so soft…..

xiao hovering near the edge of the crowd, at first, drawing your attention since he doesn’t seem to be eating any of the seed you’d passed out.

when he finally hops within arms reach, you reach to nudge some of the food next to him closer, only to quickly whip your hand back. the birds around (on) you all flutter at the sudden movement, but you inspect your finger, the blue blood of teyvat welling up. your instinct is to stick it in your mouth, but that doesn’t seem safe considering a bird bit it, so you dab at it with a napkin.

the bird cries and flaps his wings, distraught, and your heart hurts. poor guy, you probably scared him, moving so quickly.

you pull out some chopped almonds from your pocket. the plan was to have them as a snack, but now… you put a few in your palm and close your hand around it, reaching forward to gently run two fingers over the birds back.

the other birds in the area seemed receptive to that, and this one does too, calming down considerably.

you take your hand back, opening your palm to drop the almonds on the floor, nudging them close before backing off.

“there you go,” you murmur, as the bird dips down to inspect the food. “i won’t hurt you.”

you allow yourself a silent cheer when it eats one of the almond pieces.

you see the small bird fluttering around you often, always on the edge of your vision. it’s easy to identify, the purple patch of feathers on its forehead easily standing out, and you’re always certain to push some food over to it. almonds, not birdseed.

the bird is a dark blue-teal, the underside of its wings a softer blue. it’s like no other bird you’ve seen in liyue, something that quickly catches your attention.

you brush some dirt off you as you stand, noting the way the bird immediately looks up from its food, unlike the others, to flap up into the tree you were sitting under.

you crack a smile, carefully reaching a finger for it. you’re slower this time, cautious of its skittish nature, but it lets you approach. when you carefully pet over its head, the birds eyes close.

your smile grows, and you try not to laugh at how confused the bird seems when you pull your hand away.

“i have to go,” you explain. “the millelith… they’re getting too close again. i won’t be able to see you again, little friend.”

the bird chirps, nearly indignant, and you do laugh this time. putting a small piece of almond on the branch in front of it, you wave goodbye to the other birds, seeing the blue one hadn’t touched the almond.

you frown. hopefully it’ll be alright….

xiao watches you until you’re out of sight, and even then, he stays on the branch.

you…. he’d forgotten you were being hunted by the millelith. he’d forgotten the order to look out for you. he’d forgotten the qixing called you a criminal.

who could blame him? it was easy to forget everything at your side, when you carefully ran your fingers over his feathers, scratching at his jaw with the edge of your nail. yes, he was vulnerable as a bird, but it was easy to be vulnerable with you. it was easy to be open, to sing as best he could in this form, to allow himself close enough to see the way your eyes lit up whenever another bird landed on your outstretched finger.

xiao dropped to the ground, morphing back into his human form. predictably, the birds cawed and flew away quickly. he watched them go, his mind contrasting it with how readily they flocked to you.

you…

he turned to the branch he was on, to the small almond piece left behind. the small symbol of your care, of how you recognized that he didn’t touch the birdseed and instead offered him your own food to eat. normally he wouldn’t lower himself to eating off the ground at all, let along bird food, but almonds weren’t awful and you seemed so happy when he ate..

xiao looked back to where you’d gone, to the sandbearer trees swaying in a soft wind.

he allowed his form to fall away and spread his wings, taking flight on the same breeze that urged you along.

perhaps he’d forget his orders for a little while longer, if it meant he could spend that time with you.

perhaps he’d forget his orders for a little longer, if it meant he’d get to spend that time with you.

[that-foul-legacy-lover]

Hrghhh

I love Childe, he was my first five star and his foul legacy design is so cool raghh. Your scenario where reader also has a transformation similar to foul legacy is rotting in my brain, just imagining Childe going bonkers if reader lifts him up cause he’s just, not used to it.

Or expanding on Zhongli’s relationship with them, he’s just living with these giant abyss creatures that are both surprisingly cuddly. He gets pounced on as soon as he returns to their home, stuck in their arms for the rest of the day.

Arghh I love Childe so much, I just needed to ramble. He’s rotting my brain, the silly ginger.

you 🤝 me silly ginger Harbinger thoughts

you absolutely can pick him up, your favorite method being lifting from under his arms so he hangs like a bewildered cat, mouth agape and exposing his fangs from shock. not only does he look adorable like this, you can also easily pull him closer for a tight hug, resting your chin on top of his head and purring happily. Foul Legacy's unused to being held since he's usually so much bigger than everyone and he's also incredibly touch starved, so whenever you hug him he just melts into your arms, letting out small whines and getting as close as he possibly can (he might've cried the first few times but he'll never admit it)

Zhongli is very much in the role of ultimate friend for both you and Childe. whenever he gets home you both perk up and look at each other mischievously before running over to greet the ex-Archon. Zhongli might be strong but he doesn't have the heart to push away two cuddly Abyss monsters, especially when you both seem so happy to see him. evenings are often spent sitting on the couch together, you and Childe curled up in a soft, sleepy pile with Zhongli slight off to the side, where he can work but you can still see him. more often than not he ends up being pulled into the pile when one of you decides that he's worked enough for the night- it's like living with two sweet, snuggly cats that happen to be twice his height!

[chelemlem]

so so sad about lando today in the sprint 💔 and his bet about ferrari winning by 30s... gorl stop i'm trying to defend that championship mentality dawg in you 😭 but saying that i hope someone (oscar) gave him a hug

sghdjd ok perhaps controversially going to say that idt lando is an unsubstantiatedly self-flagellative dude? most of his public low moments come from feeling solely responsible for a poor showing relative to the performance ceiling of the car/team that weekend. if we alr suck he's not going to be like omg it's MY fault we suck u kno... and seeing how saturday shook out (13s gap to P2 🥲)...... we were never going to convert that win even if bro hadn't bottled lap 1. sad but true

the way i read the ferrari bet line was him being pleasantly surprised with how well we did on a track ill-suited to our car. unfortch managing one's expectations is merely a muscle you develop by virtue of being a mclaren driver (and by extension a mclaren fan 😔). it is what it is !

also Much can be said about the correlation of dawg & mentality with wdc hopes but in the interest of being brief! fast, reliable, driveable car + competent strat dept + manageable politics to performance ratio + scrub teammate...... it's HARD to round up all the tangibles that amount to a gainful title bid. while certainly necessary and useful, dawg alone does not a champion make. and anyways lando has enough of it over the net course of a season

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE READER CALL SUGURU EMPEROR PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I KNOW HIM AND SATORU HAVE THE WEIRDEST FREAKIEST ROLEPLAY IDEAS AND SUGURU WOULD BE SUCH A SUCKER FOR THAT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DOUBLE POINTS IF HIS SPOUSE IS KNEELING IN A KIMONO WHILE THEY SAY IT PLEASE!!!!

PHDKDJUSJDUJF 😭😭😭😭😭 YOU’RE SO REAL ANON I’M SCREAMING RIGHT WITH YOU!!!! i think reader would say it as a joke but he’s scared of how much he liked it LMAO. the tips of his ears go red <33 and you continue calling him that now and then just to tease him until he shuts you up with a kiss and tells you to say it like you mean i /GUNSHOT.

also his spouse kneeling in a kimono……………….. yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh he’s losing his mind i fear 🙏 sadly he is a freak but it’s ok .

[just-venti-ng]

I was thinking of something to say to you but my brain is too full of silliness so I got nothin...

😔

"Do not fret, dear Maro, for we needn't share words, only each other's company, in order to be happy!"

[kaiasky]

lots of people in my local sphere are praising bushwell's self immolation as a brave thing to do and it does kinda fuck me up. In my worst moments there is no greater comfort than the fact that if I killed myself in a specific way at a specific time then I could turn all my suffering and pain into something commendable and people would love me for my death in a way they never could in life. I think that's a little incoherent but you get what I'm saying right? I don't want to live in a world where that is an "necessary" or "beautiful" or "brave" sacrifice to make but when people refer to it as that- I'm forced to confront the fact that I do live in a world that thinks like that. That I live in a world where I really would be of more use dead. Again I'm being a bit incoherent but I felt the need to say something and get it off my chest I understand it's a complicated and touchy topic for everyone.

(re this) yeah.

idk, it's... i think we valorize lots of people for dying as a part of broader culture. war heroes, people who were assassinated, every martyred christian saint. including Jesus Fucking Christ. And so in that sense i think it's hard to blame someone for seeing somebody who killed themself and go, this is martyrdom, this is heroic, reblog reblog reblog. it hits you on a gut level.

But then like you said, you think about it and you go, oh yeah, valorizing killing yourself is a terrible thing (both morally, in that it encourages other people to consider killing themself, and politically, in that if all the most devoted fucking adherents to your movement kill themselves who will be around to fucking fight for change??)

I hope and suspect that the people who reblog this kind of stuff are simply unaware of this logic and that through having it gently pointed out to them they'll also come to see what's wrong with valorizing suicides.

Ultimately like, I think the choice to continue existing or stop existing is a decision everybody (gets/has) to make for themself, but we should do as much as possible to tip the calculus in favor of "keep existing" as possible.

It goes without saying and sounds sappy, but to all of you, you wouldn't be of use dead. if you were gone, regardless of how or why, it would be nothing other than a tragedy and a huge, irreplaceable loss.

(Tangentially related, but the only advice I've ever found that like, worked for me (ymmv) for dealing with suicidal thoughts is a post like, "alright, if you're seriously contemplating suicide, then you can do that whenever, there's no rush, it's be a waste to not fuck around before ending it, so you should 1. quit your job and become one of those cool ski bum guys who couch-surfs in the summer and works as a ski instructor in the winter, and try a year or two of that out first." And so whenever I'm doing bad, I think alright, is today the day I pull the trigger on the ski bum lifestyle? And for whatever reason that feels more extreme than suicide and so it snaps me back to "hm, maybe there are less-extreme solutions than those two")

[swiftmitsu]

We love you !!!

yOU GUYS ARE GONNA MAKE ME CRY AaAAAAAAAAAAA 💛💛💛💫💛💫💛

I LOVE YOU TOO. WHOEVER YOU ARE ANON

[littlegoldfinchh]

Sorry about the sad dreams, and the bug bite, and the yearning - I know it doesn't help with the studying - but I hope your day gets better and easier and that tomorrow is way better!

Aw i promise i had a nice day🥺those are just annoying stuff that happened and jdjddj i cant help being a hungarian yknow i have to whine about them immediately or i explode

We're working on the yearning stuff tho!! I genuinely wish i could teleport sometimes nfbfnd it would make so many of my problems disappear

[laceyamethyst]

i love love the mission universe and i just want to thank you so much for writing it!! your dialogue is so natural and always makes me laugh. i was once reading it in the train and had to stop several times because i was getting dangerously red in the face from trying not to laugh so hard in public (this was specifically for chapter 2 of the lestappen proposal fic, which was FUCKING INCREDIBLE by the way!!) i am so excited to see your logan and arthur fic bc i personally am obsessed w logan so i love seeing arthur being the same way!! (also that one hint of logan just letting arthur lead the way while they’re in the club, that it’s so unexpected to max but also so right?? i’m obsessed!! personally i believe logan is a bitch but actually so soft to the people he loves and willing to do whatever they want.. he acts self absorbed but whoops! he’s actually just listening to your every word and following it while trying not to be obvious about it.) also if i could request anything it would be some protective oscar.. we’ve seen that logan is so willing to throw down for oscar, but we haven’t necessarily seen the same about oscar? like yes he was upset but he’s always too chill to really get upset.. personally i think it would be hilarious if the first time everyone sees him lose his shit is when logan is all sad <33 but ofc ignore me if you have plans!! i just decided to word vomit in your inbox which means i’ve lost the plot bc i wanted to say how much i loved your fic and instead just given you headcanons.. anyways main idea: you’re an incredible writer and your dialogue and texts and just the dynamic between everyone is amazing. it’s so dangerous to read your fics bc a) i will be obsessed for dayssss and b) they’re a choking hazard fr fr. thank you so much for sharing this universe w us!! <33

akjfdsfjl anon, this is such a wonderful message, my heart is so so full 🧡 thank youuuu

LOL chapter 2 of the lestappen proposal fic my god, i was truly writing that on my last unhinged brain cell muttering 'this is either my finest hour or my final hour idk.' i'm so glad you enjoyed the ride

i am also obsessed with logan(!!!) i did not expect to fall in love with him while writing this fic but we are really in it deep now folks. and i'm so happy you caught that little detail of him letting arthur lead when they danced! (too bad arthur is BLIND).

i debated for a long time whether it would be charles or oscar who exploded at arthur at the end of "he built a fire" but charles screaming in french was something i apparently needed to get out of my system. but i agree, we need protective oscar, and i will absolutely be making that happen in the larthur fic

thank you for taking the time to message me this, anon, i can't stress enough how much it means to me that you enjoy the verse so much 🧡 and i always always welcome headcanons, i will happily scream about these silly boys any day

[stripesysheaven]

Who'd be the ideal match for a genfic Ben hurt/comfort oneshot....For no reason in particular <3

[spoiler warning for seasons 4, 5, and 6]

honestly no clue. its kind of funny but there isn’t one exact ben ship i’m locked into, as long as ben’s in it i’m game. though i’ll admit locke x henry gale do have a lot of situations that could work for a hurt/comfort fic. teacher au ben x locke also has a lot of great opportunities for that.

then there’s also ben x sayid. especially when they’re working together, maybe sayid gets hurt on the job and something happens between them after. something soft that still feels like a manipulation deep down.

also need need to include ben x jack. maybe during their roommates era? jack is going clean and needs ben’s help staying that way maybe. also has an irony of ben taking care of jack, while jack is the one who is supposed to be the healer.

last one, ben x hurley. i think there’s a lot of opportunities between them during their time together post ending. could go either way, (or even both at the same time) where hurley is the one who needs support because he’s not sure if he can follow in jacob’s footsteps. or!!! ben realizing he finally has a defined role for the island/ben realizing he finally actually has a real friend.

just a few ideas off the top of my head

[wanderingchocolateeclair]
