I know that a/b/o isn't everybody's cup of tea, but... maybe headcanons about (alpha) Pedro boys getting home from work and finding omega reader in heat? Pretty please?

Coming Home to Find You In Heat:

*** When reblogging or talking about Omegaverse, please remember that ‘a/b/o’ without the slash punctuation marks (/) is considered a slur for the Aboriginal people in Australia.

**Female Reader

Javier Peña: There isn't a day that Javier doesn't come home thinking about fucking you. It's programmed into his DNA. However, the second he hits the door, he smells it. The intoxicating scent of your pheromones filling the house. Second only to the scent of your cum on his cock as his favorite. His entire body is throbbing as he calls your name. Walking through the door to see you whimpering his name with the toy you have buzzing between your legs. "Oh 'mega." He groans, ripping off the suit jacket and tossing it aside. "Don't stop. I'll be inside you soon enough. Let me get undressed."

Ezra: He isn't even aware that you are in heat until he removes the sealed helmet from his head. You had stayed in the tent because you weren't feeling well, so Ezra had decided to dig by himself. Coming back earlier than normal so he can check on you, he had decontaminated and had just unsealed his helmet when that intoxicating aroma fills his nostrils. "Kevva." He groans, eyes darkening as you sweat and suffer. "Little gem, you should have let me know of your plight far before now." He hums as he starts to strip himself of his suit. "It my humblest undertaking as your alpha to see to your comfort during the trying times of the burden of your nature." He is practically panting already, thinking of the ways he will take you and make sure you are knotted properly. "Push two fingers inside that deprived pussy, gem. Gratify yourself until I can accommodate you suitably with my cock."

Mando: He immediately sets a course for a hospitable planet, one he knows will be safe for you and the kid. He knows that he will be get very little sleep over the next few days, making sure the kid is taken care of and out of trouble as well as taking care of you. The little sleeping nook isn't big enough for your nest, so he moves containers and crates to create a private area for you to build a nest with the blankets and padding he has on hand. As soon as he has landed, the safety protocols for the ship are engaged and he has every light turned off, plunging it into darkness so he can remove his armor and helmet. "Don't worry, cyarika." His unmodulated voice is warm as he reaches for you. "You will be crying in pleasure soon."

Frankie Morales: Heats after kids is difficult. He knows you are in pain and suffering so he calls his mom, begging her to take the kids. He has to give you a quick orgasm on his fingers before he takes them over to her, so desperate to feel your alpha that it makes him a little bigheaded. He's stopping by the pizza place to grab some food to make it easy for you as well. His weekend get together plans with the boys are cancelled, he has more important things to do, like you.

Pero Tovar: You think that this man isn't going to smell you the second he stops his horse? Think again. The smell of your need calls to him and he is rushing through bedding down his horse and stripping down to wash in the barrel next to the door. You don't like it when he tries to fuck you when he's dirty. Not that he cares. All he cares about is that his omega needs his cock. He won't even stop to eat the food you had managed to prepare before you had taken to your bed, barring the door and growling when he sees you in the bed. "Omega." He growls, knowing that he will be taking care of you until the heat has passed.

Agent Whiskey: There is nothing that Jack likes more than a needy, whiny omega, begging for his cock. Especially with it's his own omega. A trail of clothes is left through the house as he makes his way to the bedroom. Pausing at the end of the bed to watch as you try to pleasure yourself with your fingers in the middle of your bed, surrounded by the scent of your alpha, but it's not enough. His cock is already hard and leaking, his hand wrapped around it. "Sugar, you look mighty lonely in that pretty nest of yours." He coos, grinning at you. "Why don't you let your alpha take care of you and fill that needy pussy up?"

Marcus Pike: Marcus knows before he gets home. He can hear it in your voice and he keeps track of your heat cycles. He hated having to travel so close to the time, but he had hoped he would make it back in time. On the way home from the airport, he is calling for takeout to be delivered, knowing that you will need him to knot you, then you will need to eat. You forget to eat in the haze of lust unless he makes sure you do. On the drive home, he is talking to you, soothing you over the phone and talking you through using one of your toys while you are wearing his academy shirt that smells like him.

Max Phillips: This is one cocky motherfucker. An alpha and a vampire? He knew that you were going to be in heat before he ever even left on his fucking business trip. The iron levels in your blood changed. So when he hits the door, this man is already a puffed up, primed alpha. He's on you before you even know he's in the house. Groaning over your scent and burying his face in your cunt to get you ready to take him. His inhuman abilities will have your pain pushed away in no time and your sweet omega cries filling his ears.

Dave York: FERAL. This man is absolutely feral when he learns you are in heat. The animalistic urge to wreck you is always there, right beneath the surface, but when your hormones go wild and your heat sends out those heady pheromones, he takes it to another level. Your comfort is best determined by having your legs up on his shoulders, his cock buried inside you with his knot locking him in place while you scream his name until you are hoarse.

Oberyn Martell: Oberyn is actually slightly upset at you. There are other alphas, even betas, that you could have used to help you until he arrived. Ellaria lets him know that you are in your nest, suffering needlessly. He's even more upset that you haven't taken the potion he had been working with the maester of Dorne to help ease your heats. But he can't be too upset at you when you whimper his name and beg him to put a baby in you. He will stay right there until every second of your heat has passed and you're satisfied.

Zach Wellison: Zach is an attentive alpha, he's honestly so guilt ridden that he had been working on Ms. Martinez's water heater issues when your heat started. He's rushing to you and cooing, apologizing while he strips down and climbs into the bed with you. "I'm so sorry, baby, you should have called me." He is kissing and comforting you, pulling you into his arms and immediately starting to get you ready for his cock to take the ache away.

Max Lord: Max comes home, completely distracted by the fact that his company is failing. He smells something, but he is pouring over the reports and obsessing over the meetings that hadn't gone the way he had hoped them too. Unaware of your plight until he walks into the bedroom to change out of that uncomfortable suit and he is smacked in the face with your scent and sees you whining in the bed. His instinct is to take care of you and he will, but he's a little annoyed that he must right now. It's not the best time.

Marcus Moreno: He's nervous, this is the first time he has had to care for an omega since he lost his late wife. Not like you haven't had sex, but this is the first heat. It is his job to take care of you. He calls his mom and asks her to pick Missy up, aware that while his daughter knows what is going on, he needs to focus on you. Reminding you and himself that it will be okay and he will make sure that you are comfortable. Perhaps a little unsure of himself to start, but as soon as he comes into that alpha headspace, you remember why this man leads the Heroics team and is the perfect alpha for you.

Dieter Bravo: The fact that this man is an alpha is still the biggest surprise of your entire life, especially when he's your alpha. "Honey I'm hooooooooome!" Is the almost irritating greeting you get from the doorway, shouted through the house, but today he's yelping as soon as he hits the door. "Fuck! Where's that natural lube? Are you naked yet?" You can hear him banging around downstairs and slamming doors in a near state of panic. "I'm coming! Then - you're gonna cum! I promise! Fuck, I love when you are in heat!" Despite his chaos, Dieter loves noooooothing more than forgetting there is anything outside of the little nest you fix and the need to be buried inside you.

Javi Gutierrez: Javi was never away from you to begin with. He writes in the office with the door open and the second the first grunt of pain is heard, he is shutting down the laptop and coming to you. He knows that you are going into heat and immediately starts to reassure you that he will be right there for you. Whatever you need and however many times you need it, he will take care of it. Urging you to strip out of your itchy, irritating clothes and to climb into the bed that you will share for the next few days.

Tim Rockford: You have to call this motherfucker home. It's another late night for him. Chinese take-out cartons, cigarettes and stale coffee had been how his evening had looked as he worked well past the time other officers went home, burning another quart of that midnight oil. He had been startled when the phone rang, but when he hear your desperate, pained voice begging him to come home, he's grabbing his coat and racing out the door.

Joel Miller: Going into heat on the road is not easy, or convenient. If you think that his stress levels are high normally, they go through the roof right now. You will be so vulnerable, and his attention has to be focused on taking care of you. Joel will have to ignore the needs of your body, and his, until he can find a safe place for you to hole up. Somewhere Ellie can block out the "gross sounds", because let's face it, who wants to hear their chosen parents fuck? There's also the problem with needing more calories and water during this time. It's a lot to deal with, but Joel will take care of you, he hasn't let you down yet - but he has got to get you somewhere to dick you down before you feel like you're going to die.

Marcus Acacius: The entire encampment knows you are in heat. The tents are not thick enough to keep the cloying scent of your need and arousal contained to his tent. Alphas will be sniffing around and the only thing that protects you is the clear knowledge that any alpha that lays a hand on you will be die a slow and agonizing death at the general's hands. He is pulled from a strategy meeting by one of his servants, a loyal beta, who informs him of your plight. Making him hurry back, hearing your calls for him long before he reaches the tent to join you. Once he is inside, he is in complete control and the war will just have to go on without him, or there will be a tentative peace while he cares for you.

Could you do one where the boys are on a tour (in Australia maybe😏) and the reader gets like a backstage pass for her and he bff and reader is talking to Chris in the meet greet(earlier cause of the pass) and Chris seems to take interest in her so he slips his number in her pocket and she eventually finds and called the number confused and he picks it up and then after awhile of them talking back and forth Chris asks her out and they start dating blah blah blah (sorry for the in Australia maybe lol I just want them to do a tour here so I can meet em)

SAVE MY NUMBER.

pairing: chris sturniolo x fem!reader summary: the triplets are finally having an abroad tour and the reader purchased vip tickets with their best friend to meet them. what happens when she finds a stray set of numbers on her postcard when she gets back to the hotel? warnings: cursing, use of y/n!! a/n: thank u for the request love <3 i hope this is awesome sauce !! i tried so hard to make this enjoyable LOLL but i think it may have come out ok!! <3 lowercase intentional !!

my fingers anxiously picked at my shoes with one hand as my other hand scrolled through instagram.

"come on, y/n, aren't you excited!?" my best friend, harper, exclaimed as she gripped my shoulder and shook me rapidly.

with a soft nod and a small chuckle, i nodded as i locked my phone and let it fall into my lap. "of course i am. i'm just tired of sitting here."

we had been sitting in the sun on the side of the venue in line for the last hour and a half. it was that point in the day where the sun was beating directly onto us.

i had managed to get my best friend and i some tickets to the triplets' tour with the meet and greet pass. counting down the days was grueling, but we finally made it and the hardest part was now. waiting outside to be let into the building.

"it'll be worth it. who even cares?"

i nodded softly as i looked her up and down. she was decked out in purple, some purple stars drawn on her cheeks under her eyes and some purple cargo pants with a let's trip tee and some white air forces.

i, personally, was drowning in orange. with an orange crop top and deep gray ripped jeans, my outfit was topped off with orange nike high top dunks and an orange belt. my friend had helped me out with the orange stars, mine on the opposite side from harper's.

"y/n, the line is moving!"

i turned my head to harper, being ripped from my thoughts before quickly standing to my feet and moving up in line.

the line moved slow, but it was something.

we still had a long way to go.

-

the line for the meet and greet felt like it was forever, but as we got closer, i felt like no time had passed at all. i could see them every once in a while through the lit cloth between the line and the boys, and my eyes shifted to harper. "dude, we're almost there." i chuckled, trying to keep myself as calm as possible as harper made noises i didn't even know were humanly possible.

"y/n, i don't know what to do or say, i think i might shit myself."

i slammed a hand over harper's mouth and let out a cackle, shaking my head. "shh, say that less loud." i scoffed and before i knew it, harper was next in line.

my hands toyed with the orange belt that helped my jeans hug my hips, my eyes glued in front of me as i watched the three boys.

the three boys i watched at first every once in a while when they appeared on my for you page, but i quickly became a huge supporter of the triplets, and they were somewhat a coping mechanism for me when things were hard.

and now i'm meeting them.

"next!"

i shot harper a smile and tapped her shoulder. "you got it!" i smiled brightly and waved as she approached matt.

i felt a lump develop in my throat. this was bad.

it wasn't a crying lump, but an anxious lump. unfortunately, when i get nervous, i can't help but ramble and yap.

"next!"

no way time flew by that fast. as i approached matt, i swallowed and smiled brightly as i felt like each step that i took was in slow motion.

matt's arms opened and i quickly stepped towards him and hugged him tightly. "hi, matt," i breathed, taking a deep breath as the reality of the situation began to settle.

"what's your name?" he asked softly, picking up his photo and signing it quickly.

"oh, it's y/n," i breathed, the smile on my face so wild you could have probably found me in a horror movie.

"nice to meet you, y/n. i hope we haven't kept you waiting too long?" he questioned, and i quickly shook my head.

"i'm just happy you guys are here," i breathed and smiled brightly at him before my expression fell. "oh my god a picture-" i scrambled to reach and get my phone from my back pocket, opening my camera and lifting it up.

two bright smiles later, matt pulled me into one more hug and smiled brightly, while i wished him luck on the rest of the tour.

i turned to see nick and smiled brightly, pulling him into a deep hug. i always had a theory that nick gave the best hugs of the three. so far, my theory was correct.

"hi, friend!" nick cheered, signing his card and smiling at me. "your star makeup is so cute, your friend had the same thing, no?"

i smiled brightly and nodded, biting my lip. "yeah, she did them for me actually! she's the best." i smiled and pulled out my phone.

"i'm so glad you guys could come." he stated as he wrapped an arm around me and held up a thumbs up in the camera.

i smiled brightly as i pulled away and gave him one last hug. "you guys are amazing. i just thought you should know, i'm proud of you guys. good luck tonight!" i told nick as i pulled from the hug. nick shot me a soft and quick thank you as i was rushed off to the final triplet.

christopher sturniolo.

i felt my entire being crumble the moment i took a few steps forward.

of course, i loved all three of the triplets with everything i had.

but chris.. i related to him in many ways and always found my eyes gravitating to him while watching their videos. he's a silly guy, and it doesn't help that i find him insanely attractive between the three.

"you in there?"

my eyes shot to chris as i let out a breath i didn't know i was holding.

i literally just spaced out in front of chris, who waved his hand in front of me to snap me out of my trance.

not to mention i'm decked out in his color.

"hi!" i squeaked, and he pulled me into a hug.

i bit my lip as i hugged him tightly, taking a deep breath.

the hug lasted for a little longer than needed, but i wasn't complaining.

not sure if it's because it's chris or not, but i think nick has some competition for best hug.

"i like your outfit," chris stated softly as he pulled away from the hug. i smiled brightly at him, and i couldn't tell if i was gaslighting myself or if he licked his lips while looking at my orange self.

"thanks, i don't really wear much orange," i stated and i felt my face heat up.

"it's definitely your color more than it is mine. consider wearing it more often?" he asked, writing on the card and pausing before deciding to hand it to me. "wanna take a selfie?"

i nodded quickly and shakily took out my phone and began to raise it, but chris carefully took it from my hands and raised it himself, wrapping his other arm around my shoulders softly.

he took about four photos and handed me the phone back.

after signing the card, taking a little longer than usual, he looked me up and down one more time.

we stood there for a few moments, simply looking at each other and i noticed my friend waving at me from behind chris, about ten feet away.

"you're gonna do great tonight," i quickly said to him, and he simply smiled at me and nodded, running his fingers through his hair to adjust his bangs.

holy fuck, this guy isn't real.

"i'll do great because you came. thanks for coming." he stated softly, and brought me into a tight hug.

i bit my lip hard as i hugged him back, taking in a deep breath.

-

the night went incredibly well. the show was enjoyable with the games they all played, and i told harper about the interaction i had with chris.

harper was in the shower. i had just gotten out, my pajama pants and small black tshirt hugging my body perfectly as i laid against my bed in the hotel.

i turned to the postcards, smiling brightly as i took them into my hands and admired them. i turned them in the light to look at the layered marker, holding them towards the lamp. as i got to chris's, i noticed some writing on the back through the light and my heart jumped out of my chest.

i threw myself up off the mattress and flipped the postcard over, feeling my heartrate pick up at the phone number written against the back.

"dude, the shampoo in there is awesome. you weren't kidding." harper stated as she dried her hair in a towel as she sat in front of me, also in her pajamas. "you okay?"

i looked at her and slowly held up the card, pointing at the number.

"holy fuck, is that..?" harper trailed off, and i bit my lip.

"oh my god, i need to call it." i stated as i searched for my phone under the comforter, quickly retrieving it and dialing the number.

i put my phone on speaker as i looked at harper, my leg bouncing anxiously.

"hello?"

my heart sank.

"h- hello?"

i mentally cursed at myself for stuttering.

"who is this?"

"uhh, it's y/n, i found this number on the back of my postcard-" i was quickly cut off.

"y/n!" he cheered. "it's chris."

"are you fucking for real?" i whispered, biting my lip.

"yes ma'am." he chuckled, and i shook my head. there's no way this is fucking happening right now.

"i know it's late and you guys probably have jet lag, so i'm sorry, but i just found it-"

"it's fine, really, i was running fortnite with matt." he stated quickly, cutting me off.

i snorted. it made sense.

"well, get a victory royale ok?"

"for you, i will. save my number, i'll text you." chris stated, and i looked at harper who was in utter shock.

"right, yeah i will." i stated quickly, and hung up afterwards.

silence overcame harper and i before i bit my lip and we both screamed at the top of our lungs at the same time.

there was no way this was real.

-

my eyes were beginning to shut as the video of the triplets from a few weeks ago seemed to be watching me.

i turned to harper, who had fallen asleep a little while ago and blinked a few times when my phone vibrated and chris's name appeared on my screen.

a bright smile took over my face as i began texting him, and my night was made even more. somehow.

On Patrol🕷️⚡️

Caregiver! Tony Stark, Caregiver! Stephen Strange & Little! Peter Parker

Tags - fighting (combat), passing out, tickling, cuddles, medicines, magic

Nicknames - Pete, kid, little bundle of joy, sweet one, little one, little spider, Dadee for Tony, Papa for Strange

“Mission Alert, 22nd street and 8th avenue. Reports says the Electro is making his way to the city’s power grid. Police are asking for the Avenger’s assistance.” Jarvis echoed through the Tower.

“A mission!!” Peter jumped from his bed. He threw his spider stuffie and spit his pacifier out before running into the other room.

“Jarvis! Keep me updated on the mission! I’m getting changed now.”

“Sir, do you think you’re in the right headspace to be going on this mission?”

“Of course! I’m big now. I just needed a little break and now I’m good.”

He quickly threw on his suit, grabbed his web shooters before leaving his room. Not without one extra hug to his stuffie though! If Jarvis had real eyes, he’d be rolling them.

Peter started running down the hall, then thought the doors to the balcony. With one big jump he swung into the city.

Peter began to talk to Jarvis through his suit’s technology, “Tell Da-…Tell Mister Stark-“

“Tell me what?”

Peter looked to his right to see Tony flying beside him. “Hey! I was just telling Jarvis-“

“Where do you think you’re going Pete?”

“I’m going on the mission.” Peter said, a bit unsure of himself. “You see, I just got back from school so I was just relaxing watching this old show called Gillian’s Island when Jarvis said the mission alert and since everyone else is away on the mission in Australia I thought I would cover it.” Peter said as fast as lighting. Was it all completely true…no.

“Huh? Really?” Tony didn’t sound too convinced.

“Yeah! And now that you’re here we can do this together! On patrol! Come on!” he tried to swing faster but Ironman was much faster than Peter’s swinging. Tony stopped him, the two just stood in the air, Ironman hovering and Spider-Man holding onto one of his webs.

“I think maybe you should sit this one out kid. I’ll take care of it.”

“But I can do it! He’s my villain anyway! Trust me I’ll be-.”

There was a sudden rumble with lighting flying into the air. The two looked at one another.

Tony sighed, “We don’t have time to argue. Alright, come on kid. As long as you’re not feeling Little…” Peter could hear the slight sternness to his voice.

“Nope! All good. Alright let’s goooo!” And before Tony could him question more, Peter continued to swing away.

Tony just sighed and followed after him. While Peter swung, Tony flied beside him. They were heading towards downtown near Chelsea market and the Flatiron building.

As they made their way Peter noticed all the different buildings, a new toy store, the Harry Potter store, plus there was probably a new toy stand at Chelsea market.

“Da-…Mister Stark? After we take down Electro can we go to Chelsea market? I wanna see if they’ve got a new toy stand, because the last time I was there with you and Papa I saw-“

“Kid look out!”

Tony grabbed Peter before a lighting strike could hit him. He set him down on a rooftop near by.

“Peter answer me right now. Are you feeling big or Little?” Tony asked in his angry stern voice.

“I’m fine! I’ve got this!” He shook his head and completely avoid the question entirely. Again Peter pusher past and over to Electro who was not happy to see the duo.

“The spider brought backup? It won’t matter!”

Electro began throwing lighting bolts towards Spider-Man and Ironman but the two dodge them well.

“You remember what I taught you last week?”

“The above and below trick?” Peter happily replied.

“That’s the one. Alright kid, let’s do it.” Tony flew below Electro. While he was distracted with Tony, Peter swung above, grabbing his arms in his webs perfectly restraining him.

“We got him Mister Stark! We got-.”

There was just one problem…Electro’s hand were still filled with electricity. So he shot above him. The electricity traveled up the webs and onto Peter, electrocuting him.

Peter doesn’t really remember what happened after that. He heard his Dadee call after him, then he remembers falling, then everything went dark as he passed out. Though he thought he remembered something red wrapping around him.

~~~

When Peter started to wake up he felt wrapped in a blanket. No…wait a minute.

Peter’s eyes fluttered as he started to regain consciousness. He looked down to see his whole body was wrapped in not a blanket but a cape, specifically Doctor Stranger’s cloak.

Peter’s body ached and his head was pounding but he looked around for his Dadee and his Papa too.

He realized where he was. Safe and sound in Papa’s mansion in Downtown Manhattan, the Sanctum Sanctorum.

Peter sighed and sunk into the very comfy bed. He always loved going to Papa’s house. Everything was so cool and mysterious.

Plus he always has the softest beds imaginable. He couldn’t help but close his eyes and fall back to sleep. Expect cloak started to tickle him! Peter began to giggle and giggle, the cloak was relentless.

The cloak only ceased its tickle attack when the door to the bedroom opened up. Peter looked to see Uncle Wong enter with a tray in his hands.

“How are you feeling little one?”

“I’m fine! Really!” Peter began to sit up but his pounding headache had him sink right back down. “Actually my head hurts, badly.” He whined holding his head.

Wong hummed in response, “I thought so. That’s why I brought this for you.”

Wong sat the tray down on Peter’s lap. On it, were little bottles with different colored liquids inside. Peter looked at Wong confused.

“Don’t worry it’s all medicines to help you feel better.” Wong started looking through the different bottles for the right one.

He picked up one and opened it up, black smoke started to pour out of it before he quickly plugged it shut.

Peter’s eyes widened as he looked at Wong with sheer horror on his face. Wong laughed nervously, “Haha, that was the wrong one.”

“Wrong one?! What is that?!”

“Nothing you need to worry about. Let’s see here.” Wong looked through the bottles until, “Ah ha! Here it is!”

He held up a glass bottle with a blue liquid inside. Peter looked at Wong worried, “What is that?”

“It’s liquid advil. I will help you feel better soon.”

“No thank Uncle Wong I’m gonna see Papa instead.” Peter began sitting up with the help of the cloak.

“I’m telling you Peter this will help you. It’s good medicine. I’m 78% sure.”

“78% sure?! What about the other 22%?”

“Well, they’re a chance that this could turn you into a fish or cure your headache.”

“A FISH?!”

“It’s only a 22% chance! Nothing to worry about!”

Peter’s heart was in his throat. He stood up on unsteady feet but thanks to the cloak he didn’t fall. He looked at the cloak and then Wong.

“Mister cloak, take me to Papa please.”

“Peter wait-.”

The cloak lifted Peter in the air and flew him right out the door, ignoring Wong. The cloak flew through the mansion in search of Strange, all while Peter was giggling, but thankfully it didn’t need to look far.

Strange and Tony sat by the fireplace. A coffee table with tea cups sat between their big chairs.

“I should’ve checked with Jarvis the moment I caught up with him in New York. I just had a feeling he wasn’t as big as he was saying.”

“It isn’t your fault Tony. It’s hard to tell when Peter is truly regressed or somewhere in between. I’m just happy he wasn’t badly hurt.”

“Sometimes I wonder if I’m a good Caregiver or I’m becoming my old man.” Tony sighed.

“Tony, Peter idolizes you. There’s really very little you could say or do to make him hate you. Don’t beat yourself up, that’s my job.” Strange smirked.

Tony rolled his eyes, “How did you even find us?”

“I was heading to Chelsea Markey to pick up something for Peter. Last time we were there I saw him looking at a toy stand and-”

The cloak carrying Peter flew into the room, knocking over the coffee table with their tea cups. The cloak deposited Peter in Strange’s lap with one plop.

Peter giggled and waved to the cloak goodbye. “Thank you cloakie!” The cloak waved back before disappearing into the mansion.

“My little bundle of joy delivered into my lap.” Strange chuckled.

Peter reach forward and hugged Strange, who recuperated wrapping his arms around Peter. “Peter, sweet one, how are you feeling?”

“My head hurts.” Peter mumbled in the hug.

He lifted his head up but held onto Strange still, “Uncle Wong tried to poison me Papa!”

Strange raised an eye brow, “Did he now?”

“Yeah! He brought in this big tray of bottles! One of them he opened had black smoke coming out of it! And another could’ve turned me into a fish!!”

“A fish?!” Tony stood up and joined the two, “We can’t have that happen! What will we do if our little spider turned into a little fish?!” Tony said as dramatic as possible.

“No Dadee! Don’t wanna be a fish!”

“Don’t worry kiddo, you’re not going to be a fish. I’m sure Papa has some regular medicine for you around here somewhere.”

“Come on,” Strange said lifting Peter into his arms. “Let’s get you some medicine and then it’s back to bed for you.”

“Noooooo wanna play!”

“Listen to your Papa Pete, you need all the rest in the world after that shock. I’m sorry this happened to you. I should’ve seen it coming and helped you.”

“It’s okay! I’m okay! See?” Peter smiled.

Tony smiled back, “I can definitely see that. Nothing stops my little one.”

“How about a cozy resting day? Just the three of us? That way you can heal and you won’t be without your Papa and Dadee. We can watch whatever movie you want. How does that sound?” Strange offered.

Peter smiled at his two amazing Caregivers, “Yes!! Just one thing?”

“Yes?”

“Can we invite Uncle Wong too. But make him promise not to turn me into a fish…please.”

The two Caregivers laughed, “We’ll make him promise not to turn you into a fish.”

Father's Day is coming so could you give us more headcanons for Brozone dads (Bruce, Clay, Floyd, Branch) and their kids. What activities their children like to do with their dads? Camping, reading, sports?

Fathers Day is actually on September 1st in Australia.

😅

I do like the idea of some Father's Day themed stuff tho. I just didn't have anything planned for this weekend. 😋

Let's see what I can't think of.

Branch 🌲

Branch is the preferred bedtime storyteller. Poppy gets too animated and keeps the kids awake longer. Branch's voice is more soothing.

Teaching the kids to be self sufficient. Foraging, farming, hunting, storing food, building and mending things. He tries to make a game of it the best he can. He thinks he's boring. The kids think he's fascinating. 😁

He is the closest with Princess Rosiepuff. Whilst he loves all of his kids very much, she just shares more of his interests.

Floyd 🔥

'Baby and Me' exercise classes.

Weekend family road trips. Visiting the different tribes and exposing the kids to the different cultures.

Boom coaches The Sprouts. It's basically a Little League team for Trollings. Angel and Phoenix are both part of it. Floyd doesn't play but is very supportive! ⚾

Clay ⛳

Clay tried to get his brothers into golf. They preferred baseball. Clay found he was actually great at baseball. Clover liked baseball as well. They actually bonded over it. Clover joined the kids team The Sprouts and Clay was part of The Hotshot Hue's.

Teaching Clover to dance by doing the 'standing on my feet' thing.

Birdie is a quieter kid and he shares the love of golf with Clay.

Bruce 💜

Bruce's favorite go-to game to keep the kids occupied is to bury a toy in the sand and tell them to start digging and whoever finds it can keep it. Sometimes he doesn't actually bury anything just so they stay out there longer. 🪣

He encourages their creativity and freedom. He keeps every one of the artworks they make for him.

John Dory 🐟

Grampbro! Uncle John Dory gets a visit from all the kids on Father's Day. ❤️

Telling the kids all stories about their moms and dads.

Showing them how to properly camp, survival skills and critter maintenance.

I have this whole extra story in my head that Boom coaches The Sprouts and is part of another adult team called The Diamond Diva's and he has to verse Clay and there's like a friendly rivalry between them. Boom and Clay are like "Floyd, who do you think will win?" (Undertones of Brother vs. Boyfriend) And Floyd is like 😅 "I just hope everyone has fun."

5 PROFOUNDLY Underrated AB/DL and/or Ageplay Experiences!

These are ENTIRELY based on my own experience with @giggle-byte and may not match your own experiences or capacity. That said, if the ideas below worked for us, repeatedly and well, maybe you'll enjoy too!

BUILD A BEAR! Seriously, I had never gone or ever really wanted to until momma and I were together this year and suddenly we HAD to. In fact I was feeling pretty big and switch-y with my cute princess, so we both kinda ended up having little time... and her adorable new set rabbit friend, and my new cute eevee (with a ravenclaw scarf and sorting hat, I couldn't resist) made us both feel miniscule!!! SO FUN.

Going to a zoo, aquarium, or nature park. Now, I've done this multiple times with momma now, both in the States and in upside-down-backwards-land, which is what I call Australia when I'm feeling cute and little. It's sublime. Childish wonder, public without feeling exposed, often able to discretely change a pull up or diaper if needed, with the chance to see cool animals and learn and feel wonder?????? YES PLEASE!!!

SNUGGLE CENTRAL MORNINGS! This is a criminally underrated experience... when you wake up, and don't even have to get out of bed to get cuddles. Now, some cg/l dynamics are long distance or don't share a bedroom. Well guess what? You just need to call! Seriously, a SUPER underrated cg/l experience is being able to get really morning cuddles and affection without even having to get out of bed. If you can be the little spoon, even better. Little spoon WITH stuffies, and maybe even being so cozy you both fall back asleep? It'll be like waking in a cloud made of coziness. YOU NEED TO TRY THIS ONE!!!! THE BEST way to wake up is, in fact, extended sleepy time snuggles.

SEX SHOP(PE)! NO, I'm sincere here! They were knowledgeable and kink aware, they clearly had no idea what me and momma were up to, and it was immediately apparent that they thought anything beyond fluffy handcuffs was probably a bit too kinky for their shop... but momma still got a lovely light mini crop with feathers on one end (more for the sensory play than impact of any kind!) And she got me a glans ring to try. I guess just being able to publicly go somewhere kink aware and safe made us both feel very seen and kinky and fun! Would strongly recommend for those who can safely go!

Being given a shower or bath, while your caregiver stays mostly clothed or even JOINS you. Truly you'll never feel as adorably little as when your mommy or daddy make you bend over to get between your butt cheeks, or tells you to shut your eyes tight while they wash your hair, or give you a bath toy to keep you occupied. You think that's good? Try the towel-drying and teasing and giggling, all at once... it's indecent how adorably little and cute you'll feel! If they make you dry extra thoroughly to get you re-padded you'll lie down feeling about an inch tall at biggest!

And as always, Stay happy, stay healthy, and stay kinky! -Scribbler

Axobloom | Sakura Mizuchi ❀˖°

initially, an adoptable i purchased before commissioning her school uniform slide to her sheets ! art & sheets by @ mariipurin on Instagram !! a new cute oc I'm happy to have bought and gotten to build off of her design and quirk <3 my first adoptable I've ever gotten !!

Full Name: Sakura Mizuchi 蛟 桜 Hero Name: Axobloom Age: 15-16 (Ages alongside her classmates + the other students) Birthday: November 11 Zodiac: Scorpio Height: 5'1 or 154 cm Gender: Cis female Sexuality: Pansexual Blood Type: A Status: Alive Affiliation(s): U.A High School, Class 1-B Romantic Interest(s): Neito Monoma MBTI: ESFJ Enneagram: 3w2

Quirk: Floral Axolotl

This unique power allows the user to control and generate various types of flowers while possessing regenerative capabilities reminiscent of an axolotl. Sakura can rapidly heal injuries and even regenerate lost body parts, making them a resilient and nature-infused force.

Drawbacks include polydipsia and require her to stay hydrated more often than the typical person. If she overuses her quirk, she experiences extreme dehydration, any generated flowers may wither, and she begins to get light-headed. Additionally, it takes a lot of energy to regenerate full limbs, compared to just a finger, hand, or foot. And can wear her out if she has to too often.

Random Facts ⁩≽(◕ ᴗ ◕)≼

A student in Class 1-B

One of her parents runs a flower shop, while the other is a low-level pro hero sidekick under the Sea-Rescue Hero, Selkie.

She refuses to end up a sidekick like her father, finding the position beneath her.

She has an actual pet Axolotl named Mudkip♂️ (after the Pokemon)

Her dorm room is filled with different flowers and plants. Both that she's grown or has been gifted from her mother.

She can breathe underwater due to the external gills that grow from her head.

Develops a crush on Monoma very early on in the series / their first semester.

She's close friends with Tetsuna Tokage, and Kinoko Komori and generally quite adores all of her classmates in 1-B.

She isn't a fan of the majority of class 1-A. Although, she is friendly with Tsuyu Asui and Mina Ashido the most.

She's traveled abroad with her family many times, visiting the Philippines once, the west coast of the United States once and Australia three times.

She’s very eco-friendly and adamant about it to her friends, in the nicest way possible because she doesn’t like coming off as bossy.

THERE YA GO. he’s also obsessed with sex toys. SO MANY post it’s about that. And also!! There’s one that states “pirate download Bullet Train”, that’s so funny 😭 honourable mentions to “I must love myself before I love anyone else”, “buy penis enlarger”, “remind crew: no eye contact”, “book private jet home ASAP!”. Btw, “build an igloo”, “unicorn food shopping”…? Ok. and it was apparently "buy bullets", obv this dude already owns a gun, WHY WOULDNT HE

I saw someone upload images and one of them was about him writing anal beads on one😭😭😭

HES SO CUTE AND FUNNY then he immediately ruins it with that stuff about guns. I kinda think the sex ones are funny tho lmao

I can’t really see but is that fight club one an honourable mention bc david leitch? (can’t read the first word)

also the Australia map cracks me up. and the doodle!! omg there’s so much LIKE SO MUCH and I want to read literally every one of them

[smolwritingchick]

Ooh I was wondering who and what Jennie will gift to the I-Land trainees when BTS visits them? I think she might have a soft spot for Jake and Niki as they left Australia / Japan at a young age for their dreams - just like she did. Especially Niki cuz he was mere 13/14 when I-Land started and he was a tiny bean (even tho he's 6'0 now-) I can't imagine the shock she will go through once Niki starts growing taller than her and also taller than Jungkook - ASA

Hi, ASA!! I would love her to give a gift to all of them instead of choosing just one person or two people 😭 She's such a giver and how she enjoys giving gifts would spark her excitement when told to think of gift ideas for the I-Land trainees.

First things first, each of the trainees will get a personal letter and smol bag of cookies from her that she baked with the gift she provides for them. Each gift will have her signature as well. I agree that she'd have a soft spot for Jake and Niki since she experienced leaving her country at a young age. She'd admire their strength and bravery for doing this younger than her. LOL yeah, that size difference is going to bewilder her lol.

Ok I hope I got everyone for this:

Jake: A pair of noise-canceling headphones with an encouraging message engraved along with her signature

Niki: She’d still be working with Nike so I see her gifting him an unreleased Nike dance sneaker from her upcoming collection and personally having it engraved in his name and an encouraging statement from her on the shoe

Jungwon: An engraved songwriting book. It has advice and questions for him to think about when writing lyrics

Geonu: a Bluetooth speaker engraved with a personalized message

K: an engraved mug. Inside the cup would be a personal message inside the rim. He’d see it as he’d sip his beverage

Hanbin: he’d receive some engraved and top notch kitchenware

Daniel: a pair of comfortable slippers

Taki: a build-a-bear stuffed toy. If it can be a hamster that’ll be a bonus. It would have her voice with it which had words of affirmation and cute supportive messages. I see him fanboying hard over this, thinking it was the cutest thing.

Heeseung: An engraved video game headset for when he plays games

Jay: She’d gift him some top notch engraving kitchenware to assist whenever he cooks too.

Sunghoon: Gifts him an unreleased Nike hoodie from her upcoming collection. It'd be customized with his name and a message on it personally for him

Sunoo: A beautiful electric wax warmer that shows various colors and lighting when in the dark. (Jennie will ask the staff what his favorite scents are and provide some of his favorite scents for him to use on the machine.) It’d be engraved with a personal message too.

I see ARMY saying how she likes to spoil people and liked how she went out of her way to go all out for the boys.

Can you do little!Luke request where he accidentally drinks alcohol while regressed? Please 🥺? I just love little!Luke 💕

Not for Babies

❃

Summary: Above

Pairing: Luke x feminine reader

Warnings: None

Word Count: 943

A/N: Thanks for the request! Also, I imagined this request as 2014 Luke, who is of legal drinking age in Australia and Europe, but not in America. I do not condone underage drinking.

❃

Luke had always been the best little you could ever ask for. He always listened when Mommy told him to do something, and he always stuck to the set of rules you two had set for him for when he was regressed. 

It had started out like a regular Friday evening. You had made you and Luke pasta and a salad for dinner, as well as a glass of wine for yourself. Luke didn't seem to question you having a different drink than him; he just happily sat at the kitchen table, making a (quite adorable) mess with his spaghetti sauce. You’d cleaned the dishes before setting Luke in front of the TV with cartoons playing, his stuffie and paci, and a sippy of juice. 

“Mommy’s going to go take a shower, okay angel? Stay right here, bubba. I’ll be back soon.”

Luke nodded, already entranced by the Mickey Mouse cartoon on TV, suckling on his sippy and clutching the stuffed toy to his chest. You slipped out of the room before the words could really register in his brain and headed towards the bathroom to start the shower. 

There hadn’t been an instance before where Luke had misbehaved while you were in the shower, so you took your time, making sure to do a face mask and shave your legs. Once you had gotten out and wrapped a towel around yourself, you still didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. All you could hear were cartoons playing on the TV and Luke’s high-pitched happy giggles, and so, you took the extra time to blow dry your hair while he was occupied. 

Once you had finally finished your self-care, you glanced at your phone and cursed. You had been in the bathroom for forty-five minutes, leaving little Luke with plenty of time to get into shenanigans. He most likely hadn’t, but you still didn’t feel comfortable leaving him alone for that amount of time. 

Walking into the living room, you noticed Luke was sprawled out on the carpet, sippy in his mouth and giggling beyond belief at what was now Paw Patrol. Even though your blond boy was normally a very happy little, this was unusual behavior, even for him. 

“Lu, baby?” You asked, sitting down beside him. 

“Hiiiiiii Mommy!!!!” he giggled, turning red in the face and kicking his legs with a squeal. 

“Did you get into sugar, pumpkin? You know we don’t get treats without asking Mommy.” You said, lightly tickling his tummy to lighten the blow of being interrogated. 

“Nuh uh!” he laughed. “Had yummy juices!” 

You raised an eyebrow, wondering if he had gotten into soda. “Did you get into a soda, buddy?”

Luke shook his head quickly, blond curls bouncing atop his head. “Nuh uh! Hads hads Mommy yummy juice!”

“Fuck.” You whispered softly. 

You were almost sure Luke had gotten into alcohol at this point. The blond was acting way too tipsy to just be sugar high, and Luke turned tomato red whenever he consumed alcohol. You quickly got Luke’s sippy from him and opened the lid, sniffing the inside of the cup. Sure enough, it smelled just like the red wine you’d have for dinner. 

“Stay here, bubba. I’ll be right back.”

Luke didn’t seem to notice you quickly getting up and almost sprinting to the kitchen, seeing as how he was currently building blocks and laughing extremely hard when he would knock them down. When you got to the kitchen, you noticed that almost three-quarters of the bottle was gone, and you’d only had one glass. 

“Lu, come here, honey!” You called out, slightly panicked. 

You knew he was technically an adult, but you were unsure if his tolerance level remained the same in littlespace. 

“Did you drink this, baby?” You asked, holding the bottle out to him when Luke stumbled into the kitchen. 

“Mhm! It yummy Mommy!” he smiled. 

You mentally cursed yourself for being so careless. You knew Luke was a very curious little and wanted to have everything his mommy had. “You can’t have this, sweetie. I know it looks like juice, but this is for grown-ups only, okay?”

Luke pouted, his bottom lip wobbling. “Bu…bu Mommy! It haves gwapes! I dwink gwape juice!”

“I know, lovely, but this isn’t juice, my love, and it’s not for littles.” You said gently, afraid of upsetting him while he was already so emotional from being tipsy. 

The blond let out a loud sob, clinging to you. “Mommy mad me?” he cried, looking at you with his big blue eyes full of tears. 

“Mommy isn’t mad at you, angel, but I have to keep you safe, okay?” You kissed his nose gently. 

Luke nodded against your shoulder, his tears soaking through your shirt. “Sowwy I bad, Mommy.” he sniffled apologetically. 

“You didn’t do anything wrong, my love.” You shushed him quietly, wiping his tears. “Next time just ask, okay?”

“Mommy?” Luke asked, his tipsiness seeming to be starting to wear off. 

“Yes, bug?” You asked as you put the wine bottle away in a very high cabinet. 

“Head hurty and and tummy feel icky?” he asked, almost like a question. 

You sighed, knowing a sick little Luke was an emotional little Luke and a hangover was about to be a thousand times worse. “I know, buddy. Let’s get ready for bed and I’ll get you some medicine, deal?” 

Luke nodded, holding your hand and following you to the bedroom and bathroom you two shared. As he leaned into your side when you got him ready for bed, you couldn’t help but to admire what a perfect little Luke was, even when he got into shenanigans.

border: carnival / sim jake

synopsis: back in australia, as little kids, jake wins a stuffed animal for you at the local fair, hoping to impress you. Years later, you reveal that you still have the dog.

When Jake and Y/N were children, they were inseparable. Their friendship was a bond forged in the fires of youth, where laughter echoed through long summer days and secrets were shared under the canopy of night. Every adventure they embarked upon, from exploring the woods to building sandcastles at the beach, was a testament to their unbreakable connection.

One bright summer's day, their shared sense of adventure led them to the county fair, where a whirlwind of colors and sounds awaited. The fair was a carnival of delight, filled with games, cotton candy, and rides that defied gravity. For Jake, it was a chance to impress Y/N, to make a lasting memory in the form of a prize won with skill and determination.

In the heart of the fairgrounds stood the largest, most vibrant game stall, adorned with a rainbow of plush animals hanging as the ultimate prizes. Jake's eyes fell upon a particularly adorable stuffed dog, that appeared to be similar to a golden retriever.

"Y/N," Jake declared with unwavering determination, "I'm going to win you that dog!"

With a bright smile, Y/N agreed, and they joined the line for the game. Under the sweltering sun, Jake's fingers deftly aimed at the targets, sending colorful balls soaring through the air. Time seemed to slow as he honed his skills, his gaze unwavering.

And then, to the applause of the crowd and the cheers of his companion, he did it. The final ball hit its target, releasing the prize dog from its perch. Jake triumphantly presented the soft, cute creature to Y/N, their eyes sparkling with admiration.

From that day forward, the giraffe became a cherished symbol of their friendship. Y/N named it "layla" and kept it close, a tangible reminder of the joyful memories they had created together. But as the years passed, the fair became a distant memory, and their childhood adventures transformed into the complexities of adolescence and young adulthood.

Time had a way of testing bonds, and Jake and Y/N had their share of challenges. They drifted apart, each pursuing their own dreams and aspirations. Life led them down separate paths, but the memory of that fair day and the stuffed toy dog remained a thread that kept them tethered to each other, even in their absence.

Years later, as life circled back upon itself, Jake and Y/N found themselves reunited by chance at the beach, a reunion set up by each other's family. Awkward smiles and nervous laughter filled the air as they caught up on the years they had spent apart. Their stories, while different, had a common thread—the dog, which had been the emblem of their shared childhood.

Y/N hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke, "You know, Jake, I still have stuffed toy layla." she says as she pets real life layla.

Jake's eyes widened with surprise and delight. "You kept it all these years?"

Y/N nodded, a faint blush gracing their cheeks. "It's been with me through thick and thin, reminding me of the incredible friend I had when we were kids."

In that moment, it was as if time had folded in on itself, and the distance that had separated them for so long disappeared. Jake and Y/N felt a rush of nostalgia and an overwhelming sense of belonging.

Over the coming weeks, they rekindled their friendship, discovering that the bond they had formed as children had not weakened but had, in fact, grown stronger. Their shared memories and the symbol of Giraffey served as a bridge between their past and present, connecting them on a level that words alone could not.

As they spent more time together, they realized that the love and admiration they had felt as children had evolved into something deeper—a love that had matured alongside them. Their journey had taken them through the winding roads of life, but they had found their way back to each other, drawn together by the dog that had witnessed their laughter, their tears, and their growth.

And so, with stuffed toy and real Layla as their silent witnesses, Jake and Y/N began a new chapter in their lives—a chapter filled with shared dreams, shared adventures, and a shared love that had stood the test of time. It was a love that had been stitched into the fabric of their hearts, just like the threads that held their beloved stuffed dog together, a love that would endure for a lifetime and beyond.

A Ramble

The idea of a Black Swan event in relation to Rise’s ending is so poetic. Because, the ending and revelation are unforeseen like a black swan once was.

Also, from the iconic Rock Scene, the creation of the symbol, their School crest, was perfect! The duality. It was just purely beautiful and fascinating. And, the concept was so clever! I was so ridiculously proud of Rafal then!

And, that reminds me of something from an interview from the bonus content at the back of book 1 where Soman said he liked to ask which is more beautiful: the black swan or the white swan? The white swan is classic, like Good. But, the black swan is rare and mysterious. So, is it beautiful as well, or is the white swan more beautiful because it represents the standard of beauty? Is it more beautiful to fit an ideal, or to be uncommon and thus beautiful because of that quality? It was an interesting line of thought as it reminded me of Rise’s plot twist.

The prose in the final scenes was beautiful, if I recall correctly. I love the comparison of Rafal being summoned by Rhian "like a genie out of the bottle." (This is paraphrasing.) This brings up the idea of opening a can of worms. They can't be replaced. The truth is out. It’s like a Pandora’s Box, or the invention of the atomic bomb that transformed modern warfare. There’s no going back from that. You regret you ever probed further and made the decision to open it. But, it's too late and always will be. It's an incredible discovery, yes, but so damaging to the world.

We’ve already seen Aladdin’s sinister genie, and originally, the concept of genies (the jinn) was that they were evil spirits, demons, known to have a reputation for manipulation, mischief, and malevolence. I wonder if a genie related to the monkey’s paw idea will possess one of the brothers in Fall?

⸻

Context and other resonant ideas:

"While jinn could be known to be friendly, or at least reclusive, the beings also have vampiric abilities. In addition to absorbing the essence of food, or eating while in human form, they derive nourishment by sucking energy from living things. That can include draining a human soul. According to lore, some jinn want to do their own thing, and have no interest in humans. Others get their kicks by hanging around humans. But it can be dicey to be around a jinn considering some want to toy with us, and choose to torment us or exact revenge for being cast out. They are also said to be able to bring about illness and bad luck. 'While some through the ages have tried to bargain with them, to do so is always a dangerous gamble since they are notorious tricksters who, for the most part, do not like humans,’ said Weatherly. ‘They can dwell in abandoned buildings, in the deserts and forests, even in rocks, statues, jewelry and other physical items'" ("A History of Genies in Folklore and Pop Culture").

⸻

"A Black Swan event is an event in human history that was unprecedented and unexpected at the point in time it occurred. However, after evaluating the surrounding context, domain experts (and in some cases even laymen) can usually conclude: 'it was bound to happen.'" ("What are Black Swan events?").

⸻

"black swan event, high-impact event that is difficult to predict under normal circumstances but that in retrospect appears to have been inevitable. A black swan event is unexpected and therefore difficult to prepare for but is often rationalized with the benefit of hindsight as having been unavoidable.

"[...] All swans were presumed to be white because all historical records of swans showed them with white feathers. The term black swan was thus used to describe any impossible event or circumstance. But in 1697 the Dutch explorer Willem de Vlamingh encountered swans with dark plumage in Australia, a land largely unexplored by Europeans at that time. The black swan thus came to be a metaphor for the reality that just because something has not happened does not mean that it cannot occur in the future. The metaphor is analogous to the fragility of any system of thought and a testament to the fallacy of assumption. A set of conclusions can be undone once any of its fundamentals is proved false. In this case, the observation of a single black swan negated the long-held presumption about the species. Any logic that followed the assumption that swans must be white was also invalidated by the discovery.

"[...] while human beings are good at turning environmental stimuli into meaningful information, they tend to be narrow-minded in their beliefs about the world. Being dogmatic about beliefs makes humans blind to concepts that fall outside what is accepted as true. This creates a vulnerability to surprise events called black swans, which necessitate a change in worldview" (Encyclopaedia Britannica).

⸻

What an understatement. I'm sure the brothers will have to do more than just change their worldviews. Their world and potentially every perception they've ever had has been turned upside-down. And, their fallacy of assumption about their souls—it could all be construed as the Storian's fault for not correcting them.

- oh he gardens. But his plants die after a period of time because he accidentally forgets about them. So he has invested in a terrarium to avoid plant death.

- he likes stuffed animals. He got a shark toy once and he loved it so much he wouldn’t stop hugging it.

- decent spice tolerance. He can’t eat most spicy things, but can still handle spice.

- he got a tattoo! He got a tattoo on his leg of some roses for fun. He really likes it to.

- he’s super good at building sandcastles. He makes them look so pretty. Through in the end he destroys them. He says it’s fun.

- he watches Tom and Jerry with his daughters and it’s always so funny.

- he drinks three cups of coffee on a good day and 7+ on a bad day.

- he’s strong. He can pick you up with one arm kind of strong. He grabbed Jack from behind and lifted him up into the air like Jack was a feather.

- his hair is dry as hell sometimes

Things I Want in Sims 4 2024

More sporty activities - I want my sims to have more fun things to do! I'm talking skateboarding (we already have skating rinks and snowboarding, surely skateboarding isn't that far behind), surfing, volleyball. I think these things would fit in well with a pack that has a world based on Australia with the beaches and some skateparks and stuff

More afterschool activities for kids and teens - High School Years brought us the chess club, football, cheerleaders, computer club, as well as the simfluencer and streamer careers for teens to do after school. I wanna see things like ballet classes or instrument classes with new musical instruments like saxophones, clarinets, drums, flutes, even cellos and double basses. And perhaps even an orchestra/school band afterschool activity to reflect on the new instruments??

More stuff for infants and toddlers - I feel like this one is so obvious. I want more toys or activities for infants and toddlers! What about those little wooden rings that you put on a stick in a tower? You could have super cute designs for them like a rabbit that goes at the top (we sell them at the place I work and they're so adorable). And what about things like one of those little chef kitchens toddlers and young kids can play with? That would be a great way to raise creativity. And those little cars they can "drive" around in by using their feet to push them along? That would be awesome for increasing their movement skill! And also. I WANT TODDLERS TO BE ABLE TO DRAW!! Give them their own drawing table or even have them do drawings on the floor or the walls

Fairies - Listen, I know the last game pack was an occult pack. But I think we need fairies in the game now. EnglishSimmer talked about it in depth in a recent video for things she wants for 2024 and I agree that having fairies and a fairy court system and fun little spells like turning sims into frogs would be amazing. It could even, I think, perhaps fit well with a medieval or fantasy themes pack. And then that in turn would also fit well with the castle building kit we're getting this year. Not to mention it could build upon the occult lore for spellcasters we got with the werewolves pack! And perhaps they also could use the lunar cycle function we have in game too like werewolves!
