“I’ll never ever ever bring you sandwiches to your fucking circus again in my life.” Catherine sat on Buggy's lap wearing only a T-shirt and tried to regain her breath.

“I told you, cotton candy, it's not my fault! You're the one who came here.” 

“You always have the same answer “it's not my fault”. Could you please remove your..?” Catherine looked down between her legs where his hand was. "Don't say “one more round” again, you'll kill me.”

Buggy grinned evilly and took his hand away. “But that was good, right? I love seeing you like this. Destroyed and pleading.” 

“Oh, screw you and your chop chop abilities, Buggy. You've ruined me in every possible way. I was just a simple, humble librarian who occasionally went on dates with decent men.” Catherine climbed off his lap onto the couch and began pulling on her underwear and jeans.

"Oh, come on, Cathie-pie! I’m more than sure that you’ve always been like this. You've just met the wrong men!” He wiped his hand on a wet towel. 

"I wasn't! I was just a regular girl...” Catherine put on her sneakers, sat on Buggy's lap again and wrapped her hands around his neck. ”Who sometimes even went on double dates just to support my sister. I thought I could meet a good guy. But I didn't think one day I would meet the best guy ever. That jerk was drinking whiskey at the bar. You see? The universe has been so favorable to me”

"It pisses me off to think that you were seeing someone.” Buggy made an angry face, put one arm around her waist and with the other he began stroking her arm. “Listen. Can I ask a question?

“I think after what you've just done, you don't need to ask permission.” She pecked him on the lips. “Hi, asshole!” 

“Hey, my little shit. So.. My question. Well..  Don't.. Don’t you regret staying here with me?" 

"What? Of course not! What kind of stupid thoughts are going through your blue-haired head again?” Catherine playfully tapped his head and looked at his eyes. He was worried.

“I don't know.. You had your own life there. Family. Handsome, rich and sucessfull men with normal noses were hovering around you. What can I offer you? All I have is circus. A pathetic clown with circus. Sometimes I think..” He started mumbling.

“Hey! Shush!" She grabbed his chin and turned his face towards her. "Even though the weather in Cairo is hot and you are always hot…”

Buggy looked at her surprisingly.

“Don't look at me like that. You know what I mean. I love my life here with you. I love the way you spoil me, the way you pamper me and how you cheer me up. I love that we're going on our new little adventure soon. I also love you and your big red nose. I know it's...well...your sore subject and it took me a while to figure out how not to piss you off with my touch. And I love to look at your dissatisfied and frightened face every time I do this…” She barely touched her lips to his nose. “And this…” She playfully touched his nose with her finger. 

“My face isn't dissatisfied and frightened! Grown men don't get frightened!”

“Grown men don't, but you do. And hey! I’m not finished with romance yet, clown. Don't interrupt me and don't scare off my pink ponies, they just started running on the rainbow.” Catherine kissed him on his cheek. “I also know that I love when you hug me, because your hands are the safest place in the world. And I also know that even though you're afraid someone will take me away from you, you won't let that happen. You will chop chop them all using your chop chop thing." She showed scissors movements with her fingers.

“I’ll never ever let anyone take you away.” He kissed her on her lips. “At least I’ll try. Hey! By the way, my Cathie-pie! Don't forget! Tomorrow is my favorite day of the year! Your birthday!!”

“What? We've only been dating for a few months and my birthday is already your favorite day of the year?” She ran her fingers through his hair. 

“Yes! Since the moment I fell in love with you!”

"By the way, you never told me when it happened."

“Don't change the subject, please.” Buggy was embarrassed. He blushed and squinted his eyes. “So.. How do you want to spend your day? Any requests?”

“I don't know. I don't like my birthday. Let's just stay home, under a blanket with pizza, wine and stupid movies.” She moved her hand and started running her fingers along his neck. 

“Geeez!” He rolled his eyes. “Nursing homes are more fun on birthdays. What about the party? Let's throw a party in honor of my baby! I wanna show my girl to the whole world! And I wanna see your smile!”

“I don't know, Buggy. I'm always sad on that day and I usually don't want to see anyone. But don't worry, you are invited!” She kissed him on his cheek. 

“Even though we live under the same roof, I'm still honored and happy to accept the invitation. But no! You're dating me! Buggy the Clown. Buggy the Clown cancels sadness on your birthday.”

⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥫⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭⥭

Catherine opened her eyes early in the morning and at first she didn't realize what had happened. The room was completely silent and Buggy's side of the bed was empty. Every night he practically squeezed her in his arms and snored loudly right in her ear. At one time Catherine carried his head and arms to another room but the body parts always found their owner. In time she got used to it and couldn't imagine sleeping without Buggy lying next to her, clinging to her body with a dead grip. And snoring. Loudly.

Catherine got out of bed, dressed in her pajama pants with duckies and wide t-shirt (it was Buggy's, of course), and carefully opened the bedroom door leading to the living room.

“Is anyone there? Buggy? Do I need to be scared? Can I come out of the bedroom?" 

There was only silence in response. She stepped out into the living room. No one. Catherine heard some noise in the kitchen and swearing. She walked quietly to the door and knocked. 

"My beloved clown, are you...?" Catherine started to open it.  

"No, no, no! You can't come in here!!!" He slammed the door.

"Ouch! What the fuck, Buggy?!!" Catherine held her nose.

"What happened?" Buggy's head peeked out from behind the door. 

"What happened?! You hit my nose with the door!"

"Fuck! Let me see!" He quickly examined her face. "I'm sorry about that, my Cathie-pie."

"And you should be! " She said in a goonish voice.

"But there's good news! No injuries and blood. You're still beautiful, even though you're wearing those stupid duck pajamas." Buggy checked her nose again. "Everything is fine. And by the way, happy birthday, baby girl!" He put his arm around her waist and lifted her slightly above the floor. Catherine quickly wrapped her legs around him and hugged his neck with her arms. 

"Thank you, jackass. If you kiss me, maybe I'll forgive you." 

He smashed his lips into hers. 

"I hate you." 

“Damn! You’re too early with your “I hate you” today.” Buggy laughed and kissed her neck. 

Catherine gently pushed his face away with a strong "no" and looked toward the kitchen. "What are you doing in there? And why are you covered in flour?" 

"Actually, I was going to make you your favorite pancakes but as I understood I'm not a good cook." 

"Pancakes? For me? Thank you!" Catherine pecked him on his lips. "Let's check it out.”

“B-but…”

“Sh! Don't deprive me of the joy of judging you." She jumped to the floor and walked into the kitchen. 

"Good Lord, a hurricane named Buggy has clearly swept through this room. Have you been fighting with Godzilla here? All the tables are covered in flour, shells, I even see broken egg marks. I'm not cleaning that up!" She laughed loudly. 

"Don’t mock me! Give me five minutes and it'll be fine. In the meantime, hold your coffee and go to the living room." Buggy gave her a mug of coffee and carefully led her out of the kitchen.

Catherine had been sitting on the couch for about thirty minutes when another rumble and swearing came from their kitchen. She got up and walked toward the sound. 

"Buggy, is everything okay? Do you need any help?" 

"No! Fuck!" The sound of a chair being kicked came from behind the door.

She opened the door and saw a tray of burnt brownies and Buggy holding onto his arm. "What happened? What's wrong with your arm?" 

"I'm fine. But these fucking brownies are not. They are burnt, I think." He said in an irritated voice.

"Let me see your hand." 

"NO! I told you, I’m fine!" Buggy pulled back his hand.

"Stop being a drama queen, let me check." She gently took his hand, muttered something to herself, pulled a first aid kit out of a drawer and sprayed his palm with the spray. "That's it. You'll live!" 

She looked at his distraught face and pressed herself to his chest. "Ooh, my silly clown, don't be upset. I'm more than sure the pancakes and brownies are delicious. Better pour me some wine and let's try them." 

He grudgingly, grumbling and pouting, shuffled his feet toward the wine cabinet. Catherine smilingly sat down in a chair. One floating hand brought her wine, the other placed the burnt pancakes on the table. They were, of course, soggy in places but she didn't want to upset Buggy so she kept silent. "It's really good. I'm even thinking of passing the cooking torch to you!"

"Don't lie to me, they're disgusting." He sat next to her and angrily pushed the plate away. 

"I never lie to you. They taste good to me." She finished the pancakes and Buggy set the brownies on the table. 

"My favorites! Thank you!" She cautiously stuck a fork into the brownie and tasted a piece. "Wow! Delicious! Seriously! It's delicious! Taste it yourself!" She brought the fork up to his mouth. Buggy ate a piece and visibly cheered up. 

"See! You were worried for nothing." 

She took a second brownie, put her feet on a chair and kept her eyes on Buggy while she was eating the desert. 

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He visibly tensed. 

"Me? I just.. You made me a delicious breakfast, even though you're covered in flour," She brushed the flour residue out of his hair. "Thank you so much, my pancake hero! No one's ever done that for me before."

"Not even these former suitors of yours and that fucking Jamba Bamba?" Buggy leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms and looked at Catherine with a look of a mixture of jealousy and pride.

"Someone's jealous! Admit it!" She smiled wryly and ate another bite of brownie.

“I’m not!!” Buggy was red-faced. 

Catherine started laughing. "You're such a fool. I love you."

Buggy said they were going for a walk after breakfast. Catherine quickly went to the bathroom to tidy up and then went to the bedroom. She decided to wear a light blue calf-length dress with long thin sleeves that perfectly matched with the hair color of her beloved clown and white sneakers. 

"Are you ready?" Buggy's voice came from behind the closet door. 

"Give me thirty s.... Wow!" Catherine was speechless. "Well, hello, handsome! Why are you all dressed up?" 

She couldn't take her eyes off Buggy. Catherine had never seen Buggy like this. In addition to fresh make up, he was wearing a light pink shirt with sleeves rolled up to the elbows, in a black vest and pants, and a black tie. He tied his hair into a ponytail, knowing she would like it.

"Just wow!" She watched him blush under his makeup. "You see? I don't even have words!" 

Buggy reddened instantly. Catherine closed the closet door, took two steps forward, took his hands and stood on tiptoe. "I love you so much, my blue-haired asshole!". She kissed him on his lips. 

"I can't blame you for that, cotton candy."

As he promised, Buggy entertained Catherine all day. He tried so hard to keep the smile on her face (although it didn’t always work). He took her to the amusement park because he couldn't forgive Jumba Bumba for not being able to arrange a proper date. Catherine joked about his jealousy. Buggy kept saying “no, I’m not jealous, someone just needs to show Jemba Bemba how real man organizes dates.” She kept saying she loved him, he would endlessly guffaw and avoid answering.

It amused her though knowing his story, she was already more aware of how difficult it was for him to express his feelings and emotions. He showed his love through gifts and deeds, though the words she liked to hear so much also slipped into his conversations. 

“A-a-nd this is cotton candy for my cotton candy!” He held out a pink fluffy sugar ball on a stick to her hand. 

“You stole it again?” 

He shrugged and smiled. “Who knows?”

“I know! What am I gonna do if you get caught and put in jail, huh? Here, try this." She tore off a piece of cotton candy, put it in his mouth and licked her fingers. 

Buggy's face changed. "Don't do that again."

"Don't do what?" Catherine gazed at him with round eyes. 

"That's what you just did, baby. Please don't do that again. It's very dangerous." He narrowed his eyes slightly and clenched his teeth. 

Catherine stared at him for a split second. "Oh my god! You're disgusting sometimes." She started laughing mockingly. “I bet, you're probably dying now!” 

“I’m not! I can control myself!” He blushed under his makeup. 

"Yeah-yeah! This is said by the man who yesterday did what… well, what you did.” She ruffled his hair. “Thank you so much for this day, Buggy! And for this little plushie octopus you won at the shooting gallery. I guess I'll name it after you.” Catherine waved a small pink toy in front of his nose and put it in her bag. “This is probably the most fun birthday ever!” 

“Anything for you, my amazing red-haired pie. So! Our next step isn't far away from this place. And you know it perfectly. Let's go!” He took her hand and led her to the next place.

They reached the bar soon.

“At Arlong’s?” She glanced at him blankly. 

“This is where we met, right?” He led her inside and escorted her to the bar counter. “And at this place one beautiful girl began to grumble at me.”

“I didn’t grumble, don't lie!"

“Oh, come on. You were ready to strangle me with your hands."

"Because you poked me with a slobber bottle and you seemed like a narcissistic asshole to me!" 

"I’m still a narcissistic asshole!" He kissed her hand. "But luckily for my pie, one night on our adventure changed everything and I wasn't so eager to leave you in the desert anymore. Wait. Why are you...?" He looked at her eyes, wet with tears. 

"I'm sorry, I don’t know why I’m crying. Either because you arranged such an amazing day for me, or because you didn't leave me in the desert, or because you remember some little things about how we met. It’s all your fault!” She lightly hit him on the shoulder. "But these are tears of happiness, don't worry, please."

He wiped her tears, kissed her forehead and snapped his fingers. At that same second, musicians, led by a skeleton conductor, ran out onto a small stage. 

"Cairo never ceases to amaze me." Catherine sniffed and giggled again. 

They sat down on chairs at the bar. His friends, whom she knew well, were invited to the party too. Buggy apologized for not being able to bring her sister, since she had gone somewhere with her boyfriend. But she gave her a gift. Catherine was on the verge of tears again.

"Did I do something wrong again?" He asked with concern in his voice and took her hand. 

"No-o-o! Everything is ok! I can't believe you organized all this for me. That you even wanted to invite my sister. And the music band with a skeleton in a suit. They're playing my favorite songs!" She chuckled and wiped her tears. “I’m fine. Sorry. I won't cry again. I promise!” 

Buggy kissed her forehead one more time and snapped his fingers again. The fish-faced waiter brought a bottle of wine and a cheese plate for Catherine and a bottle of whiskey for Buggy.

“I told you, I'll throw a party in your honor! Because my girlfriend deserves the best birthday ever!”

He took the bottle and began to pour wine into a glass. Catherine stood up from her seat, walked over to Buggy, stood between his legs, hugged him and looked intently into his eyes. 

He embraced and held her close, drilling her with his eyes. "Why are you with me? I don't deserve you. You're kind, beautiful and you always take care of me. I.. I'm just a loser clown."

"Shut up and don't ruin the moment. Imagine that we are under your favorite fucking spotlights." Catherine smiled, tilted her head so as not to hit his nose and kissed him on the lips. She really tried to control herself. Catherine broke the kiss, moved her head back a little and said quietly. "I'm really glad I took that fucking ticket then. I love you so so much, Buggy the Clown. And you're not a loser. Fix it in your blue-haired head, okay?"

Buggy only nodded silently and wiped her lips with his finger. "You're all covered in my lipstick again.” He answered back quietly, cleared his throat and pretended to be cheerful at the same second. “By the way, my Cathie-pie, I have a present for you!"

"What? Isn't that the whole gift? You've already done enough. The park, the party at the bar." She sat on his lap, took a sip of wine and looked at him wide-eyed. Buggy immediately put one arm around her waist. 

"I'm insulted to the core, baby. Nah, there's another one coming. I know you rarely wear jewelry, but I hope you like this." He detached his other hand and sent it somewhere behind the bar. 

He attached his hand back and held out a velvet black box to her. "Here you go. Happy birthday, my baby girl!"

Catherine tensed but tried not to show it. She carefully took the box and opened it. There was a bracelet with two lines of red and blue stones intertwined with each other. The pattern resembled a braid. 

"There's an inscription on the other side in the spirit of your favorite Egyptian things." He inspected her face intently, trying to understand her reaction. 

Catherine turned the bracelet over and began to read. "Just as water has no beginning and no end, so my love for you has no end." She glanced at him and burst into tears. 

"What happened? Have.. Have I offended you in some way? Is there some wrong translation there? If so, I'll go and tear that green-haired scowling fellow's head off tomorrow! Moro… Zoro or whatever his name is." Buggy was nervous and angry at the same time. 

"No, no! You don't have to kill anyone." She laughed through her tears. Catherine wiped her eyes, sniffed and hugged him tightly again. "Sorry, please. I told you, no one has ever thrown me a birthday party like this. And your gift is amazing. Thank you so much!” She gave him a peck on his lips and started carefully examining the bracelet. “Colors, shape, meaning.. It's like.." 

"Actually,” Buggy took the gift from her hands and placed the bracelet on Catherine's wrist. “I thought about giving you a ring but I was afraid you'd take it the wrong way and you would run away from me into the desert. But maybe.. someday." 

"I'll wait patiently." She stroked his cheek with her hand. 

"But you will say yes to me, won't you?" Buggy looked into her eyes as if expecting an answer.

She shrugged, smiled and drank her wine.

There were a lot of drinks, food, fun, dancing and a big cake, of course. Towards the end of the evening, Buggy took Catherine's hands. 

"We have one more item on our birthday program, my Cathie-pie!"

“What? You spoiled me today. Or rather, first you almost broke my nose and then you spoiled me. What's on the program?"

"I won't tell you! It's a surprise, let's go!" With a slight movement Buggy put Catherine on his back and carried her out of the bar, inviting all the other guests in the bar with a gesture.

They came to the backyard of the bar next to the lake. Catherine jumped off him and kissed him on his cheek.

"Thank you, my hero! So what? What are we doing here?" She looked around, not knowing what to expect.

“We're waiting for the grand finale! You know, if I was a pirate and the captain of a ship, I would definitely arrange something like this for my girl...” Buggy snapped his fingers and smiled widely.

Nothing happened.

"Wow, I'm impressed. Snapping during the whole evening is your best gift! I won't forget it until my death!” She laughed out loud.

"Oh, shut up! Dammit! One moment, I'll be back." Muttering under his breath he stepped away somewhere. Catherine could hear the sounds of swearing and couldn't stop laughing. Buggy’s finally back. He stood behind her, put his arms around her waist and put his chin on the top of her head.  

“Ok! Attempt number two!” He snapped his fingers one more time.

The lights in the sky began to come on one by one. Red, yellow, blue, green... Different colors and shapes. 

"Fireworks?" Catherine glanced at Buggy with admiration.

"Yep. My baby girl loves fireworks, right? You told me that you and your sister always went to see them."

"Stunning!" Catherine snuggled closer to him. “You know, If you were a pirate, I’m sure you would be the best captain among all the pirates. I bet everyone around the world would be afraid of you and they would put a lot of money on your head. And girls would fall in love with you. And you would leave me.”

“Leave you? No way! I’d take you with me to my ship, don’t worry.” He kissed her in the temple. 

"Of course you would take me with you. Someone would have to put up with your whining."

"I never whine!"

“You're always whining for no reason. Don't argue with me, you won't win anyway." Catherine stroked his hands. "Best birthday ever. Thank you so much, my silly clown! But do you realize you're gonna have to throw me a birthday party like this every year from now on, right?”

“Like you once said, I love difficulties.” Buggy turned Catherine towards him, hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead. 

"You're doing it again. In front of everyone." She said quietly.

"Doing what? I do nothing. I'm just standing there."

“You're grabbing my ass!” Catherine laughed and moved his hands to her waist. 

“Why did you do that? My hands were so happy there.” Buggy looked upset.

She grinned, hugged his neck again and couldn't take her eyes off him. “I love you, my Buggy Bear.”

“I have to admit that I love you too, my cotton candy.”

Daughter of Discord Rewritten Chapter 4: The Best Day Ever

Screwball was 6 when she started school. There was some debate that morning on who would take her, and I'm the end they both went, since they both wanted to. It was almost fall, and the auburn light reflected through the falling leaves, the air smelled like warm remnants of cider and wood shavings. The schoolhouse shone brick red, white fences lines the area.

As they slowly approached the red building, Screwball felt her stomach churn.

"What if the ponies don't like me?" she asked her parents.

"Of course they'll like you!" Discord replied, playfully twirling the propeller on her hat. "Why wouldn't they? After all, who wouldn't like the most adorable filly in all of Equestria?"

Silence fell over the schoolyard as the foals stopped their playing at the sight of the draconequus. The kicked up leaves seemed to still and the light on their faces highlighted the unfamiliarity. Screwball gestured to them.

"Because I'm different?"

"And that's what makes you so adorable!" her father exclaimed, ruffling her mane.

"Everything will be alright, honey," Fluttershy assured the filly. "Dinky will be here, so will Autumn Glory and Taco Grandé."

After Pinkie and Cheese Sandwich had their first son, Taco Grandé, Applejack caught the baby fever once more, and rainbow dash and Rarity wouldn't object once she'd taken them to the orphanage and they'd seen the childs that made their hearts skip a beat. They adopted the cinnamon twins shortly after, maple cinnamon and cinnamon twist.

"Your teacher is also Cheerilee," Fluttershy continued. "You remember her: the crusaders' teacher? Oh, and big mac's daughter is there too!"

Apple Blossom was also around Screwball's age. They had not met that often, but she knew she was Aunt Applejack's real niece. She also remembered Sugar belle, a very nice mare who always smiled crooked and warm.

"And don't worry if any pony makes fun of you," Discord added. "Just show them who's Boss and turn them into an orange!"

Fluttershy shook her head. She looked back at the filly. "If any pony can't accept how special you are, that's their problem. As for your magic…don't get into any trouble and don't make any pony feel jealous…Promise me you'll behave. Okay, honey?"

Screwball nodded. "I'll be good, Mommy."

Pinkie pie strolled up to the playground with her Coltfriend, cheese, bounding with her foal on her back. Then rainbow and Applejack showed up with their own children.

The twins landed with a thud as Dinky tackled them both. Applejack chuckled as she appeared behind them. At her side was a light brown colt with a black mane and autumn brown eyes.

"I see y'all are just as excited as Maple here," the cowgirl said, patting her adopted son on the back.

Dinky looked up and blushed slightly at the sight of Maple Cinnamon Screwball noticed him returning her blush.

"hi d-," he stuttered. He was stuck on the letter "D".

Dinky waved her hoof with unmatched enthusiasm."HI!!!"

Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash and Applejack shared a knowing look.

Every pony looked up as the school bell rang and Cheerilee emerged from the building.

"Alright, kids! Come inside!"

Fluttershy gave her daughter a light shove. "Go on! We'll come and pick you up at three."

After receiving another kiss, Screwball joined her friends as they raced up the steps. She stopped at the door.

"Oh, Ms Cheerilee!" Rainbow exclaimed, handing her the apple. "This is for you!"

"Why thank you, Dash," Cheerilee said with a smile. "How's the twins?"

"see, that's just what I wanted to hear. Cuz' I got something I needa tell you, ma'am. See, Maple's got a stutter, and he's really shy about it. Try not to hold it against him?"

Cheerilee put her hoof into Rainbow Dash's. "You have my word, miss. You too, miss Applejack."

Cheerilee attempted to get her new students to settle down. "Alright, class! I know you're excited and all. You'll find your name on your new desk."

"Well, welcome to the new school year, my little ponies!" Cheerilee announced. "I'm your teacher, Ms Cheerilee. We're going to spend this morning getting to know one another. Everyone turn to the pony next to you and introduce yourselves."

When Maple turned to his right, he met the green eyes of an earth pony with pastel yellow mane, yellow-green coat, and lots of freckles.

"hey cuz! I haven't seen you around so much, you moved to ponyville?"

"darn right I did!"

Screwball's desk partner on her right was a white unicorn with red, white and blue striped hair. She flinched at the sight of the earth pony's eyes. Screwball eagerly extended her hoof.

"Hi! I'm Screwball!"

The unicorn hesitantly shook her hoof. "Aquafresh."

"Isn't this all exciting?"

"Uh…yeah. Hey, are you…?"

Cheerilee tapped her ruler on her desk to get every pony's attention. "Alright, now we're each going to introduce ourselves to the class. State your name and please share something interesting about yourself. I will go first as an example." She cleared her throat. "My name is Cheerilee, I have a strawberry garden, and currently teaching a wonderful class!"

Screwball tried to pay close attention to the others as they introduced themselves, but the only ones she really listened to were her friends.

"I'm cinnamon twist, I like reptiles and ants!"

"I- I'm.... Maple Cinna-cinnamon." He took a deep breath and closed his eyes tight. "I l-like herdin' dogs a...and interior design."

The twins did a hoof bump before Apple Blossom spoke:

"My name is Apple Blossom, I like helping around the house and playing in the flowers."

Dinky was very excited for her introduction: "I'm Dinky Doo and I like muffins!"

Screwball giggled slightly and then realized it was her turn. "I'm Screwball and my dad's the Lord of Chaos!"

The room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Screwball shrank at the thought that maybe she had gloated, despite what her mother had told her. She had not meant to brag, but the teacher had asked for something interesting, and well, that was the most interesting thing about her.

She could not understand why every pony was so shocked. Based on how the twins were looking at her, she had the feeling that what she said was wrong. Why? It was not like they did not know. It was not like she had grown a second head.

"Did I say something wrong?" she asked the teacher.

Cheerilee shook her head. "No, Screwball, you said nothing wrong. Let's continue."

"I'm Aquafresh," the unicorn beside her said, rather shakily, "and my mom's a dentist."

Screwball did not hear the rest of the introductions, or pay attention as Cheerilee began the lesson. She was too busy listening to the whispers of the two colts behind her.

"She's the one my sister told me about! Her daddy's supposed to be a big scary monster!"

"Yeah! I think I saw him this morning!"

"My sister tells me she's as much a freak as he is!"

"Yeah! I mean look at that hat she's wearing!"

She protectively held onto her treasured hat from Aunt Pinkie.

Her head wrenched around her neck as she faced the colts. "I like my hat!"

"Screwball!"

She faced Cheerilee, realizing that she had said that out loud.

"What's going on?" the teacher asked crossly.

"Sorry, Ms Cheerilee," she pleaded. "But…they're saying mean things about me."

"Tattle tale," whispered the boy behind her.

"Is this true, Gold Digger?"

The colt with golden fur and a light green manebshook his head. "No, Ms Cheerilee. We were just talking about her eyes."

The teacher squinted at him. "Your sister was a pupil of mine, so I expect you to be familiar with the rules of this class. Every pony, let it be known that from now on, there will be no talking during the lesson! And boys-"

"yeeees?" They batted their lashes Innocently.

"it's not nice to talk about other ponies' features."

Screwball glanced over at Apple Blossom and tried to copy her pose by sitting upright and folding her hooves on her desk. She could not get in trouble on the first day of school. Mom would get upset.

She flinched as she felt a prick on the back of her neck. She glanced around and shrugged it off, assuming it to be a fly. Then she felt it again. It did not hurt really, but she found it quite annoying. Then something hopped onto her desk: a rubber band. She looked at the golden colt out of the corner of her eye. He and his friend were snickering with pleasure.

She thought of what her father had said numerous times that morning: If any pony makes fun of you, show them who's Boss. She did not want to disappoint her mother, but these colts needed to be taught a lesson. She had to be subtle in her revenge, for Cheerilee knew about her powers.

Screwball glanced at the rubber band that had missed and remembered Aunt Pinkie showing her something called a Cat's Cradle. She smiled deviously as she made a rubber band appear between Gold Digger's legs and copied the trick. When she was successful, she tried it on the other colt.

Then the bell rang for recess and the two boys tripped out of their seats.

"What the…?" Gold Digger uttered, looking at his tied legs.

Two Pegasi, thunder crack and lightning bolt, gawked at the sight and gave Screwball a questioning glance. She nodded with a devilish grin.

"Nice," Lightning muttered, giving her a hoof bump.

"Let's get out of here before the teacher notices," Thunder whispered.

The fillies agreed and rushed toward the playground. For the first five minutes of recess, Screwball and Dinky spun a rope while the twins competed over who could jump the longest

"Nine, ten…" Dinky counted. "Uh…what comes after ten?

"Eleven," Screwball continued. "Twelve, thirteen…hey, guys! Watch this!"

She let go of the rope, but it kept spinning as if some pony was still holding that end. Dinky gasped and released her end as well.

"Awesome!" the twins exclaimed.

"We have the coolest friend ever!" Lightning declared.

"And the sneakiest!" Thunder added.

"are you guys Rainbow Dash's kids?"

"aw, we wish! We met at flight camp one day, and we been friends eva since! Practically twins, like the Cinnamons."

"Who wants to play kickball?"

The twins stopped jumping, entangling themselves in the rope.

"I do, I do!" Dinky hopped excitedly

The three laughed at their friend's enthusiasm and followed her to join the other students as they gathered round. Screwball's smile faded when she saw that Gold Digger was the one who had made the announcement. His blue eyes met hers and they gave each other a mutual glare.

"Sorry," he said. "This game is for ponies only!"

"But I am a pony," Screwball insisted.

"No, you're not. You're a Discord. My big sister Diamond Tiara told me so! You saw that big monster?" Gold Digger asked the foals. "That's her daddy!"

"My big sis said your daddy took over Equestria! Three times! He's the baddest of bad guys! He's evil!" Silver platter announced.

Screwball had no idea what he was talking about, but she stomped her hoof in anger. "Daddy's not evil!"

"He is evil! That means you're evil too! Look at her eyes!"

"Hey!" the twins cried, standing in front of their friend.

"Leave her alone!" Thunder crack cried.

"What's wrong with you?" Lightning demanded.

"What's wrong with me?" Gold Digger repeated. "What's wrong with her? She's got funny eyes! Like her dopey friend over there!"

Screwball gasped and glanced at Dinky, who was on the verge of tears. Picking on her was one thing, but no pony made fun of Dinky! No pony! She might look different, but she was not a dope!

Gold Digger made Screwball so mad she just wished the sky would come crashing down on him! The students looked up as a dark shadow covered them and screamed when they saw a piano hurdling directly towards Gold Digger. They all scattered out of the way. Screwball managed to grab Dinky before the instrument hit the ground, smashing into piece

As soon as she heard the crash, Cheerilee rushed out and gasped at the sight of the broken piano. How had that gotten into the schoolyard? She looked towards Screwball, who had a horrified guilty look on her face. She shook violently with her mouth agape.

Fluttershy knew something was up when her daughter did not come out of the building immediately. Dinky then explained that Cheerilee had kept Screwball after class. Expecting the worst, Fluttershy entered the classroom. Cheerilee was sitting expectedly at her desk, and Screwball on a stool in the corner. As soon as she saw her mother, she faced the wall in shame.

"I appreciate you coming here, Fluttershy," the teacher said softly, yet bluntly.

"What's going on?" the pegasus inquired.

"Have a seat, Fluttershy."

Fluttershy pulled up a chair and sat across from Cheerilee.

"It appears that there was a little…accident today."

The pegasus glanced over at Screwball. "What happened?"

"Well…how do I put this? A piano dropped from the sky."

Fluttershy's eyes widened in shock. "A piano?!"

"Yes. I checked, and there was no moving cart in the sky at the moment."

"You think…Screwball?"

Cheerilee looked to the filly in the corner. "Well, Screwball?"

She turned her head slowly, wincing at the expression on their faces.

"I didn't mean to!" she insisted. "They were making fun of me and Dinky! I didn't want it to happen! They made me so mad!"

"Honey, you promised you would behave!" Fluttershy shouted, almost too loudly.

"They called Daddy evil!"

Her mother's angry expression changed into one of fear. She then faced the teacher again.

"I assure you it won't happen again."

"See that it doesn't," Cheerilee said, solemn. "I understand that it's hard to keep it in check, and I can give you some resources to help with the situation."

The filly slid off the stool and smiled nervously up at her mother. The tragic glare she received in return caused her to hang her head. The room was suddenly all too tall, all too cold and empty, nowhere there was a sight of life.

"We're going to talk with your father about this."

"Would serve the brat right for picking on my daughter!"

They were sitting at the dinner table. Fluttershy had just explained the events at school.

"I also tied his hooves into a Cat's Cradle," Screwball admitted, picking at her peas.

Her father guffawed. "You did?! What'd you use? A string or rubber band?"

"Rubber band. He threw rubber bands at me first."

"Giving him a taste of his own medicine, huh?" He clapped his hands. "Genius! Pure genius, that's what it is!"

"He said you were evil," Screwball stated.

They both turned to her with wide eyes.

...

"Who told you that?" Discord demanded, quiet, as if afraid to rouse awake some deep feeling locked away in a bitter sharp tower with a moat of red roses.

"Gold Digger," she replied. "He said you were evil, and that I was evil too. That I wasn't a pony like they are."

"Sweetheart," her mother said, stroking her mane tenderly. "You're not evil and neither is your father."

Screwball looked her father in the eyes. "He said you took over Equestria."

Discord shrank guiltily into his seat. "Um…yes. I took over Equestria once…or twice, but that was a long time ago."

"You see, honey," Fluttershy explained, "your father was…evil, long before we met."

"Seems like a thousand years ago," the draconequus reminisced. "Actually, it was. I was ostracized because of my appearance and well…you could say I went crazy…like you did today with the piano. The princesses punished me by turning me to stone for a thousand years. When I was released…I met your mother. We didn't start on the friendliest of terms. She was one of the bearers of the Elements of Harmony, the only things that could defeat me. Of course, now just a look from your beautiful mother can do that..." He winked at her and she couldn't help but smile as she rolled her eyes.

"I came up with a plan to dispose of the Elements of Harmony, but that didn't work out, so I tried something else. You see, I…"

He did not want to go into detail of what had happened. He did not want his daughter to think him a monster. Thankfully, Fluttershy summed it up gently.

"He said he would leave Equestria be in exchange for a willing bride."

He sighed in relief. "Yes, I…had grown rather lonely over the years and…your mother was the one who accepted the deal."

Screwball's eyes widened. "You were forced to marry Daddy?"

Fluttershy hesitated. "No princess. I only married him when we fell in love."

"your mother brought out the good in me because she gave me a chance," Discord finished, placing his hands on her shoulders. "Your mother is an amazing mare. Remember that. She was the only one who had truly accepted me back then. I then realized that I could not have Equestria and her at the same time, and I could not live without her, so…"

She took his paw. "We got married."

He grinned and kissed her lightly on the lips, making Screwball gag. "Yes, we did. That's what matters, letting ponies give you a chance."

"So never you mind what Gold Digger said."

"But he made fun of Dinky too!" Screwball reminded them.

"And that was wrong of him, but if that piano had hit him, would that have made you any better?"

She hung her head. "No."

"Good."

"So…Daddy's not the baddest of bad guys?"

Discord chuckled. "No. Well, once upon a time…" He trailed off as Fluttershy poked him in the ribs. "I mean no! I found something better than chaos."

He smiled at his wife and she returned his smile.

"Remember this, honey," Fluttershy said. "When it comes to love, appearances are insignificant."

"Indeed," Discord agreed. "It's the most powerful form of chaos there is!"

A deep brewing pain seared through Discords's heart. His consciousness seemed outside himself as the girls talked themselves okay again. He couldn't ignore the ringing in his ears as the world became insignificant to him.

Justice and freedom are mutually exclusive.

ponies i think the cast likes

teruko: she loves cute n feminine stuff, id say shed like fluttershy cuz duh shes cute. she LOVES some other designs like rariety and pinkiepie but will likely not like them for their personality. she finds all of the ponies cute, she has a soft spot for all of them but she def got some preferences.

xander: he loves applejack, pinkie pie and rainbowdash. he loves pinkie cuz shes fun and he loves applejack for her honesty + coolness, and he loves rainbowdahs bc shes cool. he thinks fluttershy's super cute though. hes alright with all of the ponies but hes annoyed with twilight and rarity the most

charles: obviously twilight. like come on shes purple and smart just like him. he'll most likely not like rainbow dash and pinkie pie because of personality reasons. but also he has such a soft spot for fluttershy for her empathy and trusting self, fluttershy's HIS baby. id say he also likes apple jack to some extent because shes pretty grounded.

whit: rarity because she the boss bitch!! i think he likes discord too bc i mean come on they're both fun

david: okay so its complicated with him. when he first watch mlp he'll be neutral or hate all of the ponies because for the most part he focuses on how annoying all of them can be. hell have to rewatch mlp to actually find out which ponies he prefers. but no matter what, hes loves all of them but hates all of them at the same time. but he hates pinkie and rariety and rainbowdash the most. he likes starlight shimmer and discord the most. perhaps he'll like fluttershy bc he likes yellow and shes yellow. he has a toxic relationship with pinkie pie he hates her but somewhat wants to be her hes so jealous of her he just wants to squeeze h.

min: likes twilight the most but i think shed actually like applejack too when it comes to personality

eden: pinkie pie her fav. fluttershy's a close second. she considers all of the characters having such noticble good personalities that she just cant bring herself to hate them. perhaps even dislike them. they're just all so CUTE!!!

rose: she liks all of the ponies they're nice and iconic and their colors go togeter they're all her ponies my little pony friendsss. (but she slightly prefers grounded characters, characters that wont talk much like fluttershy, applejack and twilight)

hu: i think shed love twilight due to her need to be helpful. she somewhat likes rariety due to her being elegant

levi: OBVIOUSLY rariety bc babygirl got styleeeeeee honey

nico: OBVIOUSLY fluttershy i mean come on. shes cute, shes "feminine" , she loves animals and shes quieter than the rest of the cast. she is them and they are she. do yu. understand . also they dont like pinkie pie and rainbowdash too much. mainly bc of hyperness but they dont like rainbowdash for her attitude sometimes.

ace: most likely wont admit it but he likes applejack. he wants to feel safe and secure and apple jack's prolly the one that'll do the perfect job doing that. despite apple jack reminding him of horses the most...

arturu: he dont like all of them theyre foolls ALL fools he says FOOLS . but he like RESPECTS rarity the most out of all of those peasants . Fluttershy gives him the most somber., bittersweet feelings because she reminds him of his sister, and possibly his former life as well.

veronika: she likes rainbowdash bc. maybe bc rainbowdash hyper and wont bore her too much. pinkie pie's an obvious close second. all the ponies have her heart but she prefers some over others, either because they're fun to watch or because their brain interests her. thing is that most of the cast arent really good for studying them. she'll most likely focus on discord, trixie, starlight shimmer , LUNA, and some other former/present antagonists to study. her least favorite is apple jack, bc shes a normie. her soft spot and other fav is LUNA. bc LUNA.

am i missing ipeople

EDIT: I WAS MISSING PEOPLE

arei: she definitely LOVES RARITY COME ON. shes a pretty pony!!!! though id also say that she kind of likes fluttershy, but has mixed emotions when it comes to fluttershy, because she thinks that fluttershy is a fucking pushover, too damn nice and detached from the reality that the world is a bITCH... but fluttershy is so pretty. but then again arei ALSO likes the fact that fluttershy is so sweet and nice and caring. and yes arei feels as if rarity can be too nice sometimes, she likes that rarity doesnt seem like a pushover as much as fluttershy is. arei also likes apple jack and rainbowdash to an extent, and slightly lean towards not liking pinkie pie

J: she DEFINITELY prefers apple jack. i mean shes one of the """"masculine""" ponies, shes humble, and to be quite honest she ALSO loves that apple jack is grounded, and that she loves her family so much. she wishes her family was as grounded as applejack's family. you'd think she'd probably like rainbowdash because shes also pretty ""masculine"" as well and that J relates to rainbowdash attempting to avoid "girly" stuff, but NAH. J hates how rainbowdash can have a big ass ego, and plus, she sees rainbowdash as "out of touch." J also wouldnt like rarity due to her believing that shes out of touch, but alos because rarity reminds her of her mother

As rough as let it be is (im blaming Phil Spector) I still think white album is worse. too much material that could have been pruned down to one insanely strong album!

interesting perspective. i think white album is better. and here's why:

let it be's best songs are fantastic (i.e. let it be, two of us, across the universe, get back, i've got a feeling, long and winding road). it's "middle of the pack" songs are good (i.e., for you blue, one after 909, i me mine) and then it's bad songs are just total shit (maggie mae, dig it, dig a pony)

meanwhile, the majority of white album's songs are "good", mixed with a handful of "fantastic" ones, and perhaps one that i would call "total shit" (revolution 9, obviously. i almost also added wild honey pie into this but upon consideration i think i do love how camp and insane it is). as you can see, i don't think there's actually too much garbage on the white album, but, like you said, it definitely could have used some "trimming" .

yes, let it be is the superior album in theory, but maggie mae, dig it, and dig a pony are actually so terrible in my eyes that they pull the album underneath white album for me. and i don't say that lightly because i quite literally worship the "fantastic" songs on let it be. barring revolution 9, there's just nothing quite as poor quality on the white album as maggie mae, dig it, or dig a pony. and therefore, the white album must win.

also honey pie. honey pie is on the white album <3333

Knifeyyyyyyy 11, 19, and 29!

HELLO FRIEND.

.

anything from your childhood you’ve held on to?

Pretty much everything. Mostly because my dad told me not to throw away my toys because I'd regret it. I think he meant that I'd want to give them to my own kids, but I never wanted kids and I have 5 nephews, none of which were interested in "girl" toys. This has caused a problem because now I've had them so long that it feels wrong to get rid of them. So there are boxes in my parent's basement filled with ponies and dolls and games and stuffies. There are all the scripts from my theater school and all the mixtapes my friends made for me, and, of course, a box full of intricately folded notes that my friends and I passed in school. And there's my very first video game system (still works!) and all the games for it.

But there's some other things too. School assignments and grade cards. Journals. Photos. T-shirts from shows and events.

Every once in a while I go down there thinking I will just weed some of it out, get rid of a box...but then I look inside and just can't.

.

the veggie you dislike the most?

This is a tough one just because I like most of them in one raw or prepared way or another. I'd say beets, but a fresh olive oil and rosemary beet croquette is to die for. I'd say carrots, but a good shaved carrot pickle is damn tasty. I'd say squash, but roast that shit up with some honey/vinegar/garlic/lime wash (especially acorn squash)? Perfection. Oh! I know what it is. Celery. It just tastes like big, watery grass to me. I find it really hard to eat when it's raw (the strings), and I cannot stand the texture when it's cooked in stir fry or something. Celery. It's celery. I hate celery. You can put it on my gravestone.

.

preferred pasta noodle?

I love this question because it's tortellini and I will scream about it. It comes stuffed with things! Tortellini means "little pie!" And they are specifically made to look like belly buttons! HOW CAN SOMEONE NOT LOVE TORTELLINI?

weirdly specific and unrelated asks

[stwberryshtcake]

Strawberry Shortcake OC episode ideas

- Pumpkin opens his restaurant but has to learn to accept help. This is easier said than done. 

- An episode about Chronic illness and invisible disabilities, featuring Winterberry. 

- Elderberry has small segments between episodes teaching about health and when to treat yourself vs when to go to the doctor. She has one episode dedicated to her (it’s about Homeopathic Medicine and how it can be dangerous) but is otherwise a side character.

- Chamomile Tea moves to Strawberryland and teaches kids that some people are better off being avoided.

- Cranberry has an episode about colorblindness (because I’ve never seen it portrayed in Children’s media) and one about how it’s okay for friends to be alone sometimes. He sings a song where he just sing-yells “LEAAVE ME ALOONE STRAWBERRY I JUST WANT TO BE ALONE GO AWAY, I’M NOT UPSET(YET) JUST LET ME FISH IN PEAAAACE!” three times and getting increasingly more aggressive each time.

- The pets (OC and Canon) get together and have their own adventure trying to rescue Custard and Honey Pie Pony.

- Chamomile versus Sour Grapes and the Purple Pieman. It ends up with her repeatedly betraying Strawberryland every time the latter shows up in an episode. Sour Grapes is deeply bothered by her behavior and the Purple Pieman starts to agree with his sister after an Incident involving Angel Cake and a jar of honey.

- Obligatory Swearing Episode featuring Pumpkin, Rainbow Sherbet,  and Ginger Snap, because I think they curse a lot.

- Blueberry Muffin plots revenge against Chamomile Tea after the latter embarrasses her at a writing competition. The revenge is successful. Blueberry regrets nothing. This episode doesn’t teach any good lessons.

- Huckleberry hangs out with the boys and discovers a new house with new kids named Snowberry and Monkshood. They are (as their names suggest) also some of life’s antagonists like Miss Tea. Snowberry bullies Winterberry for being sick and Monkshood hates girls. Huckleberry protects Winterberry and Pumpkin beats Monkshood up after he insults Raspberry Torte, who is visiting.

- Pumpkin teaches the confections on how to cook healthy food and explains cooking the color wheel, plus why dieting is a bad idea without talking to your doctor. 

- The confections (Strawberry, Pumpkin, Huckleberry, Ginger Snap, Seaberry Delight, Orange Blossom, and Lemon Meringue) get lost at sea when helping Rainbow Sherbet crew her boat over a long journey. Lovecraftian horror nonsense ensues. Huckleberry punches candy Cthulhu. It's never too early to teach a crippling fear of the sea!

- Halloween episode. Featuring a ghost named Fruit Bramble, who scares the crap out of everyone. 

- Snowberry starts a prank war. It gets out of hand, because he and his brother are life’s antagonists

- An episode where the kids team up and make up their own TV shows. Experimental animation is included with each show.

Summer of Strawberry Shortcake: Adventures on Ice Cream Island

I've mentioned this before, but the strangest part of this rewatch is how tolerable I find Honey Pie Pony. I mean, she's still a pretty annoying character, but in a purposeful way. Yes, she's a part of the group, but almost all the characters have expressed annoyance with her at some point. But when I first watched this series in earnest (around 2006-7), I absolutely could not stand her. Even when I rewatched Berry Merry Christmas in 2015, my dislike of her was still strong (and to be fair, she's at her most obtuse in that one). But now? She's fine. Not my favorite character by a long shot, but no longer "the dreaded Honey Pie Pony" (as I used to refer to her) either.

All that said, I wasn't particularly interested in either of the eps on this one, mostly because they're so Honey Pie-centric. She works best as a side character, in small doses (hence why I also found Get Well Adventure so lackluster). And despite the drama in the second ep, not too much actually happens here. There's a few good lines (I liked Ginger Snap's overly long assessments of the bridge, and Huck's blase "Not much," when Honey Pie discovers the kids in need of rescue), we got to see the girls in their pajamas, and it was interesting to see an actual villain this early in SSC03, but that's about it.

Another reason this one fails to float my boat is probably because it's pretty obviously meant to be a commercial. While the 80s specials were all clearly centered around whatever was new in the toyline that year, the various reboots have all mostly avoided feeling like they're meant to sell toys (other than the dolls, of course). But then these episodes introduce new horses that each match up with the main girls. Or maybe it just stands out to me because I can actually remember when these toys were in stores (unlike the 80s toys), so I do remember the sets of horses and girls (and the tie-in book), which makes it feel more obvious to me than it might to someone else.

Some notes from the script: Ginger Snap assessing the bridge is described as "civilly engineering it" and her dialogue is said "brassily" and "motormouthly."

One last thought: as he drifts off, Licorice Whip proclaims that they haven't seen the last of him, and yet he never showed up again in the series. I wonder if there were plans to have him be a recurring villain at one point, but then he got pushed aside in favor of bringing back the Peculiar Purple Pieman.

Februpony 2024 D26 - Personality Swap

AH THIS ONE TOOK A LIL LONGER TO GET DONE AND I THINK YALL CAN TELL WHY

so for the personality swap i didnt want to do just one swap because i was really just too curious to know what i could come up with given the chance, so i decided to make a lil lineup of, not swaps, but pinkie fusions! each design is a fusion made between the tireless pink pony and another member of the mane 6!!! each one with their own personality and lil backstory!

(from left to right!)

Leap Frog: a rambunctious and seemingly eternally-energetic track and field athlete, specialized in hurdle jumping. She trains several hours every day, and she has the appetite of a an athlete twice her size! but don't worry, all the pounds she gets from her post-training binges she sweats off before every big competition! ...and respectively gains it all back right after

Pastel Pink: a gentle soul with much to express, she's the happiest when she can spread joy among the colts and fillies of the world. She dedicates herself to organizing the best child parties there are, designed to create the most perfectly happy memories with their friends and family and all the delicious food they could wish for! and well, being around so many party favors, its bound to affect her figure, but fillies love her that way! she's much more comfortable for hugs now!

Pink Mystique: an enchanting mistress of the theatrical arts, she's the most fantastic card reader. Her predictions are filled with sweet fortune and delicious riches for all involved - she's never been wrong before! almost like she can actually peer into the future, or...shape it to her words... one thing's completely evident though, she shares greatly in all the good will and delicacies she spreads, and it shows

Apple Poprocks: with all the charm of a homemade apple pie and the sweet voice of honey candy, she's Equestria's #1 country-rock singer. She has a dangerously ravenous sweet tooth, much to her agent's chagrin, but her fans love every little big inch of her, after all such a big personality should have a body big enough to hold it!

Laugh Track: host of the most popular tv?? (is tv a thing in the mlp universe?? i cant really remember if we ever do see a tv, but im pretty sure, tho dont quote me on this, that there is radio) radio show host in equestria! charismatic and energetic and ever sexy for her viewers/listeners, there's no other pony who can spread more hot goss than she can!

now, how did this came to be? well, if u need an explanation then....THE MIRROR PINKIES!! each mirror vored one of the mane six, consuming them and becoming a whole new, individual pony!

Bandaid headcanons

Ibuki is taller then Mikan

And Mikan absolutely piggybacks on Ibuki's back (idk if I used this sentence correctly, why is English so difficult 😥)

Ibuki helped dye strands of Mikan's hair pink and grey so they would match

They have matching bracelets

Very affectionate

Always touching in some way

Mikan goes to all Ibuki's concerts but sometimes it gets a little overwhelming with all those people so she cheers from backstage

Ibuki gets rarely mad but can hold a grudge forever

When she is mad, she will give people the silent treatment for weeks

Sometimes she doesn't explain why she is mad at them

Mikan mostly convinces her to talk to the person she is mad at

Ibuki helps Mikan calm down when she is panicking

The queens of petnames

Ibuki calls Mikan: baby, sugar, Miki, she has many nicknames for her and seems to come up everyday with new ones

Mikan calls Ibuki: honey, Buki, Booboo, sweetheart

Ibuki had the tendency to get hurt on purpose sometimes (minor things like scrapes from falling, nothing serious) so she had an excuse to go visit Mikan in the nurses office

She one time broke her arm on accident while skateboarding

(side headcanon that Ibuki can skateboard)

Mikan thought she had done it on purpose and they had an argument

They didn't talk to eachother for a week

The whole class was concerned

It was like:

Ibuki: Hajime, can you tell Mikan that I didn't do it on purpose

Hajime: Um... Mikan, She di-

Mikan: Hajime, so sorry to interrupt but can you tell Ibuki that she has to stop getting hurt on purpose to go see me

Hajime: ......Ibuki, You ha-

Ibuki: Well, tell Mikan that I just wanted to see her but this time I really didn't do it

Hajime: ....

Mikan: She litterally broke her own arm, Hajime, can you believe that?

And that went on for a week

They talked it out though (with some help of momfriend Mahiru)

They both apologized and Ibuki stopped falling on purpose

She still goes to the nurses office though even when it's just a scrape from falling on accident

Mikan likes cute band aids

And will sometimes just put one on for aesthetic and because they feel kinda nice

When sick, Ibuki is very quiet

Mikan ofcourse helps her get better

When Mikan is sick, she tends not too say it too anyone because she might be a bother

Ibuki sees the change in behaviour quickly

She makes Mikan soup and helps her get better

They watch My little pony togehter

And both ship Flutterpie (FluttershyXPinkie Pie) because it reminds them of their relationship

Mikan's favorite character is Fluttershy but also Twilight

Ibuki ofcourse likes Pinkie Pie but Rainbow Dash is a close second

Ibuki makes love songs detecaited to Mikan

She is also teaching Mikan how to play acoustic guitar

Mikan is good at it but panics everytime she messes up an note

Mikan confessed

She is just blurted it out one night

Ibuki liked her a long time already but thought she was straight and didn't want to ruin the friendship

The others of the class immediately saw the next day that they were dating

Ibuki initiated the first kiss

It was at the ferris wheel

They had won a giant unicorn plushie that they treat like their child at one of the games where you need to throw cans over

Could Really Use A Wish Right Now (Mordetwi)

Could Really Use A Wish Right Now

[Mordecai X Twilight Sparkle]

[Warnings: none.]

[AN: I told you I was writing Mordetwi fanfic only I put way too much effort into it and it's 3.6K words long. Read this and enjoy it or I will never forgive you. Also, I’ve never watched Regular Show so like—]

Have you ever met someone in your life that makes you feel so utterly complete? They make your heart sing and the butterflies in your stomach spring to life just by existing in the same space as you.

The purple unicorn called Twilight Sparkle had honestly never believed she was never destined to meet someone who could inspire those things inside of her. When she was a filly learning about the common beauty that is ‘soulmate identifiers,’ she’d been disheartened to learn that she lacked all of them.

“It’s a simple exercise,” Princess Celestia began, watching as her students eyed her with wonder and excitement. “Unicorns have a special ability that allows us to hone in on not only our soulmate identifiers, but others as well,” she explained, her horn lighting up with a beautiful golden aura as it began to spread brighter and brighter. Her eyes closed for but a fraction of a second before a counter appeared over Celestia’s head. “See? Easy as pie,” she smiled.

“What does your counter mean, princess?” Moon Dancer asked, her brows quirking up.

Princess Celestia hummed thoughtfully. “It’s counting down the hours, minutes and seconds until I meet my special somepony,” she answered. “Though, I have a feeling it is not of the romantic nature.”

Another filly looked over, confusion etching his face. “That’s possible?”

Celestia giggled and nodded, magickally willing her counter away. “Not everypony is destined to have a romantic soulmate, nor do they always want one,” the princess started as she walked over to the still confused filly. She stretched one of her wings out, gently draping over him before dipping her head down and explaining further. “Friendship is just as important.”

The young male filly made a loud ‘ohhhhh’ sound before excitedly getting back into the lesson.

Princess Celestia then began to explain how to do the spell, focusing on feelings and intuition more than actual words.

“Have some faith while casting your magick,” Princess Celestia said, watching as her students paired up. “Don’t doubt yourself.”

The words of her princess echoed in Twilight’s head, the young filly bracing herself as her purple aura began to spread over her horn.

“C’mon Twi, I believe in you,” Moon Dancer said, her violet colored eyes sparkling with determination and her own horn igniting with light pink aura.

Twilight grinned at her friend, honing in on her feelings as she and Moon Dancer cast the spell - and she saw it! Moon Dancer was gifted with the first words on her forehoof - it’ll appear when she’s 13.

“Do you see mine?” The red maned pony asked excitedly.

Twilight nodded. “First words at 13,” she answered. “And me?”

“I can’t really-”

“Alright my little ponies, back to your seats please,” Princess Celestia said, her voice like honey and silk. Her voice carried on, oblivious to Twilight’s inner turmoil as she continued on with the lesson, explaining the different types of marks and the most common ones. “Does anypony have any questions?”

“What do you do if you don’t have one?” The young filly asked, her dark purple colored hoof held high in the air as she looked at the regal princess who had paused from her lesson to take questions.

“Excellent question, Twilight,” Princess Celestia’s regal voice complimented, briefly watching as stars that were reminiscent of Twilight’s cutie mark sparkled in her eyes before addressing her. “Perhaps it is an area of study you can go into,” the princess winked.

Twilight raised a brow and cocked her head to the side. “You mean to tell me that no pony in the history of ponies has ever lacked a soulmate identifier?”

Princess Celestia chuckled and nodded, her large, feathery wings fanning out for but a moment to show her amusement before nodding. “There’s always a special somepony for everypony out there, whether it be purely platonic or romantic!” The large white mare explained. Aura flowed from her horn and plucked a piece of chalk up from the chalkboard’s ledge. It floated around her head before she turned back to the board. “We learn about new soulmate identifiers daily,” she explained, writing down the notes.

Twilight shifted awkwardly in her seat before using her own magic to pick up her quill, taking down her teacher’s notes.

“Sometimes, soulmate identifiers come late in life or change depending on our advancements in magick and technology.”

The princess’s voice droned on and Twilight took down her notes diligently, ears flattened against her skull. The feeling of dread pooled deeper in her stomach.

“And sometimes,” Princess Celestia continued, “sometimes they just don’t appear until a certain age. Sixteen seems to be the latest.”

Twilight’s ears perked up. Sixteen, huh? She could wait until then. Maybe there was hope for her after all.

Sixteen came and went and Twilight found herself tearing up on her balcony, stargazing in an attempt to soothe her aching heart. It was just past midnight and she performed that stupid spell again and again with no luck. In the mirror, all she saw was herself, and nothing more.

“Twily? You in here?” A gentle male voice asked, gently knocking on her door.

The unicorn flattened her ears against her head and used her forehoof to wipe away her crystalline tears. “Just about to sleep,” she said, barely hiding her sniffles. She didn’t want to face Shining Armor like this.

The stallion’s voice exhaustedly chuckled. “C’mon, what’s wrong?” He asked.

Twilight sighed deeply and opened her bedroom door with her magick, revealing a white stallion with blue hair.

He looked over the darkness of Twilight’s room before tsking his tongue at seeing the sorry state of his sister. His dark blue hooves tapped quietly along the bedroom floor as he made way to her, his magick opening her balcony doors just enough for him to sit beside her. “What’s on your mind?” He asked, eyes gentle and soft.

Twilight lowered her eyes, unable to look at her brother before biting the bullet and deciding to explain it to him. “I… Am I destined to be alone?” She asked softly, voice cracking ever so slightly.

Shining Armor’s heart softened at the sound of his distraught sister before he wrapped his arm around her. “No, of course not,” he hushed. “You’re going to be just fine,” he cooed, rocking his baby sister back and forth.

“That’s so easy for you to say,” the purple mare said with a growing frown. “You have Cadence-”

“We’re not talking about me right now,” he cut Twilight off sharply. He felt her wince against him. “Sorry, it’s just,” he rested his head on top of hers. “You’re gonna be just fine. You have my word.”

Twilight took in her brother’s warmth, still bitter over the fact he had a soulmate and she didn’t, but spent time in his warm embrace. He’s her BBBFF for a reason.

From then on, and it came in small bouts, Twilight began to think of music in her head. Little songs of things she recognized, some things she didn’t, but music all the same. At first, she assumed it was just her head substituting the liminal spaces in her head with something melodic and pleasant, but over the years, it grew louder.

How curious…

She’d grown a lot since she was sixteen, seven years had passed and the soulmate identifying mark was but a scar on her heart. Though, the music in her head was triggered at the oddest times. She’d learned to tune it out through the years, that and the feelings of her pain over a lack of soulmates.

Her friends had already found theirs.

Pinkie Pie’s was a stallion by the name of Cheese Sandwich. They were bound together by a step counter.

Rainbow Dash’s was Apple Jack, and of course, they were tied together through shared injuries. Rainbow Dash had to apologize for all of Apple Jack’s phantom wing pain.

Fluttershy had a red string of fate connected to Discord.

Rarity had an almost ‘lost to legend’ soulmate identifier, one in which your reflection is actually your soulmate - and it led her to Fancy Pants, who was in every sense, her platonic soulmate.

And Twilight? She liked to say she didn’t care anymore.

Instead, she buried herself into her friendships and focused on her magick, honing in on the skills and abilities she did have and could work on.

It was one of those spells that brought her to him.

“And you’re sure this is a good idea?” Spike asked, his green eyes showing nothing but concern. His clawed hands anxiously grasped at his scaly tail.

Twilight nodded, her magick clasping the book to a close, sending dust flying in the air. She twitched her nose before sneezing slightly. “Yes,” she began. “If I do this right, we’ll peer into another…. Reality? Dimension? Oh goodness, I have no idea!” She giggled, glee dotting her face.

Spike’s eyes fell to the book as Twilight reshelved it. “Do we really need to be looking into other realities?” He questioned, voice still shaky and unsure.

“Of course I am!” Twilight beamed. “This was one of Star Swirl’s greatest spells, it hasn’t been attempted in centuries! If I can, maybe we can learn something and then?”

Spike groaned loudly. “Don’t say it-”

“We can write a research paper!” She giggled, her ears perked up and magick already begin to form around her horn. Twilight honestly pranced like a filly, giggling as she went over the spell in her head.

Spike narrowed his eyes before hiding behind the table and flashing a shaky thumbs up.

Twilight steadied herself before gearing up, the aura on her horn growing brighter and brighter. The violet hue almost became blinding as Twilight grit her teeth at the sheer energy flowing through her body.

She flattened her ears against her skull as she put more of her power into the spell. “I can barely hold it!” She cried out, hooves digging into the wood of her library floor. She tensed the muscles in her legs.

“It’s not gonna hold!” Spike shouted, bracing for an explosion.

“Yes it will-!” Twilight yelled back, exhausting her power as her horn heated up past boiling. Her horn was practically sparkling now, growing hotter and brighter, sparks flying as she poured more and more of herself into it. She hissed in pain as the sheer force of magick sent her flying back to her shelves, sending books and precious knowledge all over the place.

“Twilight! Are you okay?” Spike asked once it was safe to come out, uncomfortable with the heavy heat that lingered in the air. He rushed over to the dizzy unicorn, watching as she shook the books off.

“I’m fine,” she said, voice a little hazy as Spike took her forehoof into his hands, helping her up. “I just need to try again. Maybe I missed something?” She rhetorically asked, rubbing at her temple in an attempt to shove off her physical pain that cracked over her body like glass at its breaking point. Her hooves clacked against the floor as she shakily steadied herself, her magick grabbing the book from its place.

“Don’t you think that you’ve exhausted yourself today?” Spike asked, his voice soft and low. “You need to rest, maybe get some hay fries?” He suggested.

Twilight continued to page through the book, eyes scanning it faster and faster for any hint on what to do. Nothing. She groaned and angrily shoved it back into its place. “You’re right, let’s get something to eat,” she sighed, picking Spike up with her magick and placing him on her back.

Spike mentally sighed in relief as the purple unicorn trotted out of the library, his stomach growling the entire way.

Twilight now stands in the middle of some field in the late afternoon verging on evening, songs in her head keeping her attention bright eyed and bushy tailed. Spike was back home, sleeping, of course. She had all the time she needed to practice her spell, and she’d keep going until she got it right.

She powers up the spell again, the breeze sending her pretty mane flying and thankfully, out of her face as her aura grows. The purple color fizzles at first, almost as if it was asking her to not do so - to give up, but she grit her teeth and powers through it.

“Come on,” she growls, putting more and more of her power into the spell, her brain attempting to focus on anything other than the songs that were permeating her skull. Twilight steadies herself, hooves digging into the earth and kicking up some of the grass, the light emitting from her horn beginning to sparkle almost brilliantly. Twilight feels a smidge of hope, a smile blooming on her face before it falls.

She feels dashed!

“No!” She cries out, wondering why it was failing.

It flickers and sends sparks flying everywhere, and then it stops. It’s almost pitiful, seeing the magick drip from her horn pathetically like when you attempt to carefully pour something carefully and it dribbles out instead.

She angrily stomps her hoof on the earth, thoughts running out from her head until the music grows louder. She’d tried so many spells throughout her time to in a cain attempt to stop it, but still it persisted.

“You want me to listen to you? Fine! Fine!” She exclaims in frustration, voice rife with anger as she allows the song to overtake her thoughts. On pure intuition when the music is blasting through her thoughts, she attempts the spell again.

Twilight closes her eyes, attempting to hone in and completely misses how her magick takes on a different form. It bounces and swirls around her and rises and falls with the swells in the music. It bounces, small specks of the magick flow from the waving strands and begin to pool, slowly building up to a portal that swirls, growing brighter and brighter with a violet hue.

She’s mentally cursing herself for the energy she’s expending here, but at the same time, the spell is so close to its conclusion, she can feel it in her bones! She focuses on the lyrics of the song, taking in the sweet words. Is it a love song? She really can’t tell.

Remaining sunlight dances across her closed eyelids and Twilight can tell she’s used up all her power. She pants, coat covered in a foamy sheen as she shakes herself with the oncoming breeze. That was absolutely exhausting. She finds herself collapsing to the soft grass, taking in the scent of the earth and listens to the way the breeze shuffles through it. A long sigh escapes her lips before she opens her eyes.

Twilight lets out a yelp, jumping back several yards as she looks at the very confused creature standing with a pop can in front of her. “What the-, who the- what?” She begins to incoherently babble, her eyes wide with shock.

The creature in front of her almost drops his pop can before blinking. “What the- who are you?” Voice is male - must be a guy-

“Who are you?” Twilight asks, slowly standing on wobbly legs to the bird-like creature.

“I-I asked first?” He says, one of his eyes narrowing in confusion as he leans forward.

Twilight snorts and slowly walks up to the portal. “My name is Twilight Sparkle,” she answers hesitantly.

“M-Mordecai,” he replies just as hesitantly. “Why did you open a portal in my living room?” He questions as his beaked face draws closer and closer to the portal.

“I was trying to finish a spell, wait-” Twilight then pauses, her expression of hesitance turning to excitement. “I did it!” She cries out happily, beginning to hop up and down. “I really did it, I opened a portal to another reality!” She laughs, horn shooting off fireworks as a further expression of her joy.

Mordecai looks at the prancing purple unicorn with even more confusion. He hates to interrupt her, but he needs answers. “Why don’t you uh, take a seat and we can figure this out together?” He suggests, slowly backing up to sit on his couch.

Twilight stops prancing and blushes slightly before reeling herself back in, awkwardly trotting back to the portal’s edge. She places her hoof on it, watching as it ripples. She tries to step into it, displeased with seeing that it only dips in before bouncing back, sending her hoof flying back at her. She frowns. “Well, there’s this wizard named Star Swirl,” she starts, magick plucking his book up from her saddle bag.

The ended up talking late into the night, the light of the moon being the only thing that lit up their visages. Twilight had explained so much to Mordecai, and Mordecai to Twilight.

They were… Surprisingly more compatible than either of them had originally expected. However, nothing could prepare Twilight or Mordecai for what was about to happen next.

“Something about me that nopony knows?” Twilight hums. “I hear songs, a lot.”

“Oh dude, me too,” Mordecai seriously nodded. “But like, I’ve never heard the songs before? I can’t tell if my head is making them up or not,” he chuckles before his large wings crush his fifth pop can.

“What kind of songs?”

“There was this one about the Hokey Pokey, I think?” He began to list off. “And then another about the history of some group called the WonderBolts? But the one that stuck out the most was this one was about smiling,” he awkwardly laughs before rolling his eyes. “Weird, right?”

Twilight honestly can’t believe what she’s hearing. Those are all songs she’s sung at one point or another, with and without Pinkie Pie - that’s when she realizes it.

“You’re my soulmate.”

“What?”

“That’s-That’s our soulmate tie,” she continues, voice seldom higher than a whisper before light begins to sparkle in her eyes.

Mordecai’s eyes are wide. Soulmates? He was always under the impression he didn’t have one! He leaps up from his couch, not even caring about the emptied cans he’s sending to the floor.

The two laugh, feathers and hooves pressing against each other on the portal as they rest their foreheads in the same place.

“I’ve waited my whole life to meet you,” Mordecai wisps out, his voice soft and innocent. “Who knew all it took as a portal,” he chuckles breathily. “Eyes like stars and hair that falls so perfectly,” he compliments, wishing so badly that he could hold her.

Twilight hums and presses against the portal just a little tighter. “I’m so happy to have met you,” she whispers. He makes butterflies flutter in her stomach and her heart stop and race all at the same time. Is this what being in love feels like?

She honestly wished this moment could last forever. He was so close, yet so far…

There are so many more things they want to say to each other when the portal begins to glitch, the sparkles that made it gradually deconstructing and coming back to Twilight’s horn.

She gasps. “No, no, no!” She cries out, attempting once again to perform the spell.

“Twilight? What’s happening?” Mordecai questions, voice growing more and more panicky.

Twilight continually attempts the spell. “I don’t know! Nothing in Star Swirl’s journal-!” She uses her magick to pick up Star Swirl’s journal and looks through it, wondering if there’s any notes she can paw through. Anything, anything at all!

The portal disintegrates faster.

Mordecai bangs his fists against it, calling out for the purple unicorn. “Twilight! Twilight!” He calls out. There’s tears welling in his eyes.

Twilight begins to blink back tears as she reads the section in barely legible ink. It’s faded away with time, but it tells her exactly what she doesn’t want to hear.

‘The reality you open can only be opened once, never to be opened again by you or any other magick caster.’

It’s such an awful rule and almost too convenient, but she lets out a groan of frustration and flings the book back, attempting again and again to save the portal. It’s no use, the magick comes back to her faster than she can build it back up.

Her hooves grasp for Mordecai, attempting to hold onto him through the veil, tears wetting her fur. “Please, please don’t go!” She cries out.

Mordecai continues to claw helplessly at the portal as they stand on tiphooves and toes to see the remaining glimpses of each other, eyes now red and puffy.

“Don’t forget about me!” Twilight exclaims, voice cracked and broken.

“Don’t go, please don’t go!” Mordecai cries back, watching as the last of Twilight’s magick closes the portal, her cries still fresh in his ears.

The field is silent now and the moon hangs brightly in the sky. Stars dot the bluish black and Twilight can’t bring herself to move. Instead, she grips at herself, gazing up, and wistfully at that.

In another reality, Mordecai quietly floats outside, tears wetting his feathers and staining them as he gazes up at the full moon. The stars hang in the sky and alongside them, so too do airplanes. He watches their flickering yellow and red lights and brokenly chuckles to himself. He begins to hum, sending this one out to Twilight.

“Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?”

Twilight’s ears twitch as Mordecai sings in the back of her head, her face tilting upwards to be bathed in the light of the moon. More crystalline tears fall from her eyes and water the earth. She sniffles and wipes away some more of her tears with her forehoof.

“I-I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now…”

Separated by realities, the symphony plays on. It’s a cruel reminder of what could have been should they have lived on the same plane of existence.

Bnha as siblings

They figure out your crush pt.2

Heyooo so uhm, same deal againnn homophobia is being blocked✨

Female

Ochaco Uraraka sister

“Deku?” You whispered, causing him to jump out of his skin. “You scared me Uraraka-San..” he mumbled, trying to calm his racing heart. “Sorry.. I just need to talk to you.” You said, rubbing the back of your head. “What’s up?” He asked, coming completely around the corner. “I came to ask some questions about Todoroki-kun.” You said, crossing your arms and flushing slightly. “Okay.. What do you want to know?” He asked, as you leaned on the wall. “What’s his favorite place to go..? Y’know, for soba..? Cold..?” You asked, fidgeting slightly. “I don’t really think he cares, he just likes Soba in general.” He replied, then began rambling. “Midoriya, Iida is still waiting for us to meet him for- oh, hello Uraraka.” He said, smiling slightly at you. You blushed, hiding your face. “Hi Todoroki! Bye Todoroki!” You said, leaving quickly. Todoroki frowned. “Does she not like me..?” He muttered to Deku, looking quite disheartened. Deku looked like he just found out the meaning of life, nodding. “Oh..” Todoroki whispered, making Midoriya start to panic. “No! That’s not what I mean, I just- uh- no, she likes you!” He sputtered, waving his arms around.

“Jeez, I messed up..” you whispered to yourself, walking up to Ochaco. “Hey Y/n! What’s wrong..?” She asked, noticing how flustered you looked. “I’m just gonna tell it to ya straight.. I like Todoroki..” you said, crossing your arms. “I know.” She said, walking with you out of the gate. “You made it pretty obvious.” She said, causing you to nod. “You’re pretty obvious about liking Deku.” You said, uncrossing your arms. “I-I’ve got no idea what you’re talking about..” she stuttered, flushing. “Yeah, everyone knows, even Eri knows, Deku’s oblivious.” You said, smiling slightly.

Mina Ashido brother

“Ice cream!” “Ice cream!” You and your sister chanted, following Bakugou around the dorm. “OH MY GOD SHUT UP!” Bakugou yelled, creating explosions in his hands and turning around to glare at you two. Glancing at each other, you both deadpanned. “No” You said at the same time. “NO!? THE HELL YOU MEAN NO!!” He yelled, before Jirou and Uraraka walked into the room. “The class wanted to know if you guys wanted to play truth or dare with us!” Uraraka excitedly cheered, causing Mina to gasp, clapping her hands and grabbing Jirou and Uraraka’s. “Why didn’t you tell me in the first place!” She whined, their voices fading as they walked away. “So uhm..” you mumbled, shuffling nervously. “You wanna play?” You asked, turning towards him. He shrugged, dragging you by your collar towards the common room. “I’ll take that as a yes-!” You got cut off by him jerking your collar, causing you to whine slightly.

After a few lame truths and dares, it was your turn. “Y/n! Truth or dare?” Mina asked, which made you smirk and sigh in relief. “Finally! Alright, dare!” You said, excitement beyond belief from the boring dares everyone else had to do. “I dare you to…” she started, pausing to think. “Kiss your crush!” She finished, pointing at you. “What are we in, kindergarten?!” Bakugou shouted, growing a tick mark. You shrugged. “Dare’s a dare” you said, tugging Bakugou into a kiss. Everyone gasped, as you felt Bakugou’s racing heart under your hand. You pulled away, panting slightly. “God damn!” Mina exclaimed, throwing her hands in the air. “Who would’ve thot!!” She exclaimed again, the rest of the class looking just as shocked. You sat back down, as Bakugou looked awestruck. “Is it m-“ Bakugou snatched you into another kiss, looking slightly irritated. The kiss was hungry, like this wasn’t a ‘game’ anymore. “You can’t just slip that past me, dumbass..” he growled, as you chuckled nervously. “I’m in danger!” You said, Bakugou swinging you over his shoulder. “Get it bro! Use protection!” Your sister said, waving, as did everyone else while laughing hysterically.

Tsuyu Asui sister

“Tsu!” You exclaimed, opening your bedroom door. She’d just come home from the training camp, and you, along with your brother and sister, were ecstatic. “C’mon Satsuki, you’re too slow..!” You complained, dragging both of them with you. She whined, going faster than before. You dragged them down the stairs and to the living room where your dad was prodding at her, mostly on why she was hurt. You all ambushed her with hugs, saying how much you missed her. “I missed you too! Kero” she snickered, smiling brightly. (She already knows your crush so have this🐥)

Kyoka Jirou brother

You were taking a walk while listening to the after school E.P, currently on test me…

👀 anyways, you weren’t paying attention since you were too into humming the tune instead of what the goal at hand was, which was keeping your feet moving in a safe manner and avoiding obstacles. “So I beg to be tested by goddesses resting their heads upon pillows..” you quietly sang, bobbing your head slightly. “Of all they have learned ‘Cause I’m mortal..” you finished, a skip in your step. “I like that song..” you heard faintly, before jolting, turning around to deck them square in the face. “Oh! Shit- sorry Midoriya..!” You exclaimed, as he held his nose. “It’s okay..” he hissed, you taking his hand away, causing him to flinch. “Sorry.. Sorry..” you repeated, wiping his nose on your sleeve. He chuckled nervously. “It’s fine, I shouldn’t have spoken so randomly.” He said, grinning at you. “You’re right.. I should’ve went for the pepper spray.” You mumbled, nodding. “P-pepper spray..?” He stuttered, as you shrugged. “Dad wants me to be protected since he says there weirdos out here, also the attacks on 1-A.” You explained, opening your bag with all of your protective gear. “I see…” he mumbled, jumping when you abruptly slammed it shut. “Can I buy you some Katsudon? Courtesy for fuckin up your nose.” You offered, already beginning to walk again. “I-I can’t let you pay-“ He started, before you cut him off. “I said I would, so I am. You said, as he sighed, walking behind you.

“You owe me” Denki whispered. Jirou scoffed, handing him 2,213 Yen(basically 20 dollars). “Thank youuu..” he muttered, smirking triumphantly. “Just c’mon, we gotta keep up if we’re gonna spy” Kyoka said, sneaking behind you two.

Momo Yaoyorozu brother

Katsuki Bakugou🕺 gotta love this man bro, he already knew your sexuality cause he’s gay asf, so, gay + gay = you’re dating bae😚 Mk , you aren’t necessarily dating.. But you love each other, and the girls know it so.. Yeah. That.

Nemuri Kayama brother

“Hey! Kayama!” Akari called, grabbing your hand. “What’s up, Tsukumo-senpai?” You asked, turning around to greet him. “Meet my friend, Asui Samidare.” He introduced, gesturing to a shy boy with dark green hair. “Hi Asui-San! It’s nice to meet you, I’m Y/N Kayama.” You said, reaching your hand out for a handshake. He shook your hand. “Nice to meet you too.. Kero” he mumbled, causing you to smile at him reassuringly. “Are you the nice girl’s little brother?” You asked, beginning to walk. “Tsu?” He asked, glancing at you. “Yeah-huh. She’s my sisters student.” You replied, nodding. You guys began talking about kindergarten ‘drama’. After a few minutes, the bell rang, which startled you slightly. You giggled, getting up, and walking back to your classrooms to get ready to go home. “Hey, Kayama, my dad wanted me to ask if I can come over after school.” Akari said, walking over to you. You flushed, hiding your face in your backpack, grabbing your stuffy. “I-I don’t think Nemuri would m-mind..” you stuttered, as he smiled brightly at you. “Thanks, Y/n! I think I should still ask your sister though.” He said, grabbing his own backpack. “C’mon Asui-San, let’s go..” you muttered, walking out the door behind Akari. Once you got outside, Asui and his sisters immediately advanced towards their older sister who was waiting outside of the school. He waved at you two, before disappearing behind the corner. “Y/n!” Your sister called, and beckoned you over. You grabbed Akari’s hand, walking towards your sister. “Nemuri-nee, Akari’s dad was wondering if he could come home with me after school.” You said, grabbing her hand. “I don’t mind, ‘long as he doesn’t make a mess.” She said, shrugging. “I told you” you said, as he stuck his tongue out at you. You returned the gesture, your sister snickering, as you finally got to the car.

Himiko Toga brother

“Himikooo~! Let’s go get you some more blood!” You cheered, as she popped from behind the wall. “God damn it.. Two crazies today of all days..?” Dabi groaned, gulping down his whiskey. “Sorry honey, you’re gonna have to sit this one out.” You said, sitting on the counter next to him. “Can I have a hug?” You asked, as he sighed. He opened his arms, you going in for the hug. You stuck your needle in his arm to take some blood. “God dammit!” He hissed, as you began laughing hysterically along with your sister. “I still love you!” You exclaimed, rushing out the door with your sister. (These are kinda shorter since they already know your crush soo..)

Rumi Usagiyama brother

“Rumi-nee?” You called, creaking the door open slightly. “Hm?” She hummed, peaking out of her closet. “Wait what are you doing?” You asked, running towards her. “Hey! No running in the house, you know the rules..” she said, fading as she went back into her closet. “I’m taking the stuff I think my girlfriend would like.” She said, throwing a few shirts and dresses on the bed. “Can I help?” You asked, jumping onto her bed.. Quite literally. “Sure. What do you think would look better on me?” She asked, sitting next to you. “I don’t know, you’re always pretty.” “Awww~ cotton tail!” “Except for when you’re waking up in the morning. You’re scary” you mumbled, as she deadpanned. “Just.. Tell me what I should wear..” she grumbled, walking to the bathroom. You dug through the things she threw on the bed, and found a white dress. “I found it Rumi!” You exclaimed, running into the bathroom. “Ooo that’s nice, cotton tail!” She complimented, taking the dress and hanging it up on the door. “Full makeup or no?” She asked, obviously grabbing mascara. “Nuh uh, you’re already pretty.” You said, jumping onto the counter and swinging your legs. “Thanks buddy.. Alright, hair straight or curled?” She asked, grabbing a curling iron. You shook your head, and she nodded, taking a quick shower and doing her makeup. “Oki doki, hawks is gonna be here soon, so behave, Kay?” She said, finishing her lipstick. You nodded, hopping off the counter, and heading to your room. “Hey, fancy pants! Get all spruced up for me?” You heard hawks faintly down the hall. “AH SHIT- why didn’t you just knock on the door!” She asked, as you heard hawks hiss, whimpering slightly. “Owww ow ow..” he whined, as you heard them walking closer to your room. “Y/n is in there, sorry for punching you..” she muttered. “It’s okay, I should’ve knocked..” he mumbled, sounding slightly nasally. You assumed she was pinching his nose like when you got nose bleeds. You silently hopped off the bed, opening your door. “Are you okay?” You asked, hawks screeching slightly as some feathers flew off. “He’s okay, Y/n. He’s just got a nose bleed” she said, going into the bathroom to get some toilet paper. “Pinch your nose until it stops bleeding, now I gotta go, bye, love you!” She rushed, grabbing a jacket and her keys. “Bye, love you!” You yelled back, rushing down the stairs to give her a quick hug. “Bye Hawks!” She said, closing the door. You stared at it for a while, before hopping onto the couch. “Excuse me, do you want to watch My Little Pony with me? You asked, as hawks came down the stares. He nodded, you clicking on YouTube. He tilted his head since he knew you had Netflix, but shrugged, sitting down next to you. “Can you type in pinkie pie cupcakes?” You asked, smiling innocently at him. He nodded, grinning at you, before grabbing the remote and typing it in. You clicked the first video you saw, waiting for it to start. “Why does it sound so ominous..?” He asked, looking slightly unnerved. “Don’t worry, it’s funny.” You said, smiling reassuringly at him.

“Hey Cottontail! How was your day?” Rumi asked, walking through the door, to you playing with pinkie pie. “It was good! Hawks watched My Little Pony with me.” You said, as Hawks peaked from upstairs. “Thank GOD you’re home! This kid is terrifying..!” He cried, trying to avoid you in every way possible. “Uh- I didn’t pay you yet..?” “I don’t care! Bye!!” He yelled, slamming the door. “What happened?” She asked, turning to you. You shrugged, picking up your rainbow dash pony up the stairs. “Hawks got scared of the dragon I think.” You lied, throwing rainbow dash down the stairs. She shrugged, going to sit on the stairs with you. “I like Hawks, he’s cool.” You said, flushing slightly. “Gosh darn it.. Are you adding to your husband’s list..?” She whined, sighing soon after, and kicking off her heels. She groaned in relief. “Jesus those things are death traps..!” She complained, as you shrugged. “I like playing with heels.” You said, getting up to put your toys away. “Well, be careful next time you do, they’re slippery sometimes.” She said, getting up and grabbing her heels, taking them to her room and kicking the door closed.

Nejire Hado brother

I mean.. You said who you liked when you came out so.. Don’t know what to do🤷🏾‍♀️

Emi Fukukado brother

“I mean.. Why Erasure? He’s mine!” Emi whined, hanging upside down off the bed. “Because he has a fat ass.” You shrugged, flicking her feet off the bed. “That’s true.. But that hurt!” She whined, rubbing her head. “Get out of my room, Emi” you scoffed, as she shot up. “I don’t wannaaa! I’m not done ranting!” She whined, jumping back on your bed. “Go rant over text..” you mumbled. “But you’re my only brother! And aren’t you supposed to be doing homework anyways?” She accused, leaning on her hand. “Y’know, from a teacher’s standpoint, homework is honestly pointless.” She shrugged, as you nodded. “Right, we already did it at school, lay us some slack..” you mumbled, her finally standing up fully. “Alrighty, I’m off to rant over text as you told me. See ya!” She exclaimed, slamming your door. You shrugged, laying back down to text Shindo.

Every Song on Every Beatles Album (Plus The Non-Album Singles), Ranked

I am not ranking the albums themselves against each other, because that’s too daunting.  Or god forbid every song.  But I have ranked the songs on each album (and the non-album singles) against each other.  And learned that I really am a degenerate Paul girl.  Also Abbey Road and Sgt. Pepper’s really are Those Bitches goddamn.  I want it acknowledged that I have the right to change my mind about any of this at any given moment.  This was very hard.

[waitingtilsunrise]

It’s a dream of mine to find one of these rather unpleasant orphanages and to find a child, that really wants to be adopted and that wants to be adopted by me. By that time I would already have a cottage in the woods, witch chicken, a horse and a donkey, lots of goats, several cats, ducks, goose and a giantific and very calm dog that looks after the animals at all times. I would have a rose garden with plants that climb up the walls of my house, and the building itself would be rather special, with stairs, hidden balconies and hideaways on its roof. Tiny towers everywhere, and filled with light multiplied by little mirrors on the ceiling. There would be colorful mosaic windows and some that create rainbows through the house. I would have a vegetable garden and a little canal from the nearby river, feeding into a self sustaining pond, surrounded by my beloved willow trees. I would have a meadow with all types of fruit trees and a glass orangerie with exotic plants and trees. There would be a meadow in front of my house planted with hundreds of tulips and lilies, surrounded by a ring of wildflowers. I would keep bees and try to befriend the local birds and deer, maybe a fox. Small pigs could help my with the compost. I’d ask that child to come stay with me, and if they’d like, I’d bring them home. If they’d be having a friend they wouldn’t want to leave, that friend could come too and they could grow up like siblings. Maybe I would even adopt several kids, even some age 17 if they only wanted to come with me to stay. Real, supportive family is forever. Anyway- I’d bring them home and ask them lots of things about their dreams and favorite things and little wishes on the way, and if they wanted I would make them a bath with roses from the garden and lavender and things that calm and ease your mind. I would leave them alone there to not disturb but tell them they could call me at any second if they needed anything. Before bed if make them a cup of valerian and honey tea for a good nights rest, and wake them up the next day with the smell of their favorite food and quiet music travelling through the house. I’d sing in the kitchen and bake pie and bread, and they could come downstairs whenever they wanted. We could paint their room in their favorite colours and paint flowers or stars on the ceiling. And if they wanted a pony or kitten for their birthday then sure honey why not, we sure have enough space for that! And they wouldn’t have to call me mom, they could call me their weird aunt or sister, my name or whatever they feel most comfortable with. I want to build them up and help them through their insecurities and teach them all these wonderful little things and just be there for them whenever they needed. As they grew up they could find their own way, but come back whenever they felt like it, or they could stay with me, help me with the garden and my beloved goats.
