They fell asleep with your kid

Guns n Roses

Summary: your bf took a nap with your kid (from a past relationship)

Gifs not mine

Saul Hudson

^ You went out to run a few errands, trusting your boyfriend with little Emma.

^. You came back to Emma and Saul cuddling together on the couch as strawberry shortcake played on the TV.

^. You'd smile at the two, knowing that Emma had been rather tired that day. It was cute to see them napping together.

Axl Rose

^ Axl saw you had seemed super a little stressed out recently for some reason so he told you to go treat yourself to something.

^ after you came back you saw little Duncan on Axl's lap, snoring quietly with some food residue around his lips. And Axl was asleep too, drooling slightly as he snored loudly.

(Dad axl makes me happy)

Steven Adler

^ you were going to the store, and we're gonna bring your kid Elijah with you, but he begged to, "stay with mr. Popcorn".

^ so you gave in, making sure they'd be okay for about 30 minutes and of course they were fine.

^ by the time you got back Elijah was passed out on top of Steven's chest, and Steven was simply watching the TV as he slept.

Izzy Stradlin

^ Izzy never necessarily cared for kids, but when you couldn't find a babysitter, you asked Izzy. And he said yes, he's never been left alone with your kid, given the fact Sidney is 3.

^ Once you were done with your errands you went to pick up Sid.

^ You opened the door and saw Izzy and Sid asleep together onto the couch, snoring softly and Izzy was holding onto her protectively, as if she was his own child.

Duff McKagan

^ You were super scared of leaving Douglas ANYWHERE. Unless it was with one of your parents and/or super close friends.

^ So you asked Duff if he could help you get over this fear, and he agreed

^ So you left Doug with Duff for about an hour, and when you came back Doug was curled up with Duff on couch, sleeping safe and sound.

I HAVE LIKE NO IDEAS ON WHAT TO WRITE ABT...😟

MACBETH SUPERPOWER AU INFO POST!!!

more under the cut but it's got powers, how ppl are related, and their general vibes.

warning: EXTREMELY long post. if i messed up somewhere (rip) it's because this is so long lmao

noncanon characters: Lulach, Gillecomgain, Suthen, Malmuire, Galloway, Atholl, Lewis, Aberdeen, Sutherland, Aelflaed

Bethad mac Findláech (Macbeth) (he/him)

Power: Very strong telepathy and telekinesis.

Relationships: Married to Gruoch. Foster-father of Lulach. Cousin of Gillecomgain.

Vibes: Ambitious. Very good at taking orders. (Not so good at being allowed to do his own thing.) Literally a weapon. Loyal as a dog, but if he thinks he might be betrayed, he’ll strike first.

Gruoch (Lady Macbeth) (she/her)

Power: Can manipulate blood (her own as well as others’).

Relationships: Married to Bethad but was once married to Gillecomgain. Mother of Lulach.

Vibes: Extremely analytical. Manufactures a lot about her appearance/vibes to manipulate others. She knows how to navigate the world, and she’s well aware of what she can and can’t do.

Lulach mac Gillecomgain (he/him)

Power: Can control plants.

Relationships: Son of Gillecomgain and Gruoch. Foster son of Bethad.

Vibes: Baby. Honestly about 9 years old though. Looks up to his mom and dad, but is still generally timid. Afraid of any fire larger than a candle flame.

Gillecomgain mac Máel Brigte (he/him)

Power: Can control plants.

Relationships: Was married to Gruoch. Father of Lulach. Cousin of Bethad.

Vibes: Ambitious (it runs in the family) but a lot worse at keeping his own secrets.

Dàibhidh mac Duff (Macduff) (he/him)

Power: Has the power to summon a spectral weapon, which he can shape into a sword, a greataxe, or a shield (only one at a time). In its latent form, it appears as a ring with an obsidian set in it.

Relationships: Married to Mairead. Father of Tàmhas and Eilidh.

Vibes: Tries to play it cool but if someone he cares about gets hurt he will have a panic attack.

Mairead (Lady Macduff) (she/her)

Power: Can heal wounds.

Relationships: Married to Dàibhidh but like. could also be gay for Gruoch. Mother of Tàmhas and Eilidh.

Vibes: Will offer to heal your wounds. Will slap your hand lightly with a wooden spoon if you try to take a bread roll without washing your hands.

Banquo mac Cináeda (he/him)

Power: Can leave his own body to possess the bodies of others. Doing so leaves his body in a catatonic state. He can choose to make himself visible as a spirit, but it takes a great deal of effort.

Relationships: Father of Fleance. Was married to Caitriona.

Vibes: Protective of Fleance, sometimes to a fault. Far more perceptive than Macbeth, though he doesn’t like rushing in without knowing all the details.

Fleance mac Banquo (he/him)

Power: Can read the minds of others.

Relationships: Son of Banquo and Caitriona.

Vibes: Going through his rebellious phase but trying to be polite about it. Likes how Uncle Bethad will let him get away with things his dad won’t.

Duncan mac Crinain (he/him)

Power: Can command others with his voice.

Relationships: Husband of Suthen and father of Malcolm, Donalbain, and Malmuire.

Vibes: Plain as white bread. Finds comfort in convention and routine, to the extent that he forces his subjects to take part in the same.

Suthen (she/her)

Power: Half-dragon. Can shapeshift her body to manifest dragon-like features, such as a tail, wings, or claws. Can also breathe fire.

Relationships: Wife of Duncan and mother of Malcolm, Donalbain, and Malmuire. Sister of Siward.

Vibes: Tries to see how much she can get away with behind Duncan’s back. Not immune to a little Silly™ now and again.

Malcolm mac Donnchada (he/they)

Power: Can see into the past and future. Can be struck by visions involuntarily.

Relationships: Oldest child of Duncan and Suthen. Sibling of Donalbain and Malmuire.

Vibes: Many thoughts head full (negative). Definitely feeling a lot of that Prince of Cumberland pressure.

Donalbain mac Donnchada (he/him)

Power: Can command people through song, with lyrics determining the intended effect.

Relationships: Middle child of Duncan and Suthen. Brother of Malcolm and Malmuire.

Vibes: Not super talkative. Struggles with an inferiority complex but tries not to take it out on Malcolm. Definitely not the favourite child and he knows it.

Malmuire mac Donnchada (she/they)

Power: Can create illusions in great detail.

Relationships: Youngest child of Duncan and Suthen. Sister of Malcolm and Donalbain.

Vibes: Third in line for the throne let’s gooooo (airhorn). Definitely acts as her siblings’ “they asked for no pickles” voice.

Rothach (Ross) (he/they)

Power: Can shapeshift into other people.

Relationships: In a poly relationship with Angus, Lennox, Menteith, and Caithness.

Vibes: Sly, sneaky, silly little guy. If he and the other thanes were to play D&D, this man would be a rogue. Stealth archer.

Ronan Bearach (Angus) (he/him)

Power: Can manipulate gold, silver, and bronze.

Relationships: In a poly relationship with Ross, Lennox, Menteith, and Caithness. Older brother of Charles (Galloway).

Vibes: Slow to trust and extremely protective of those he loves. Very much a “fool me twice, shame on me” kind of person.

Fionnlagh (Lennox) (they/them)

Power: Can manipulate and channel electricity.

Relationships: In a poly relationship with Ross, Angus, Menteith, and Caithness.

Vibes: Pleasant and generally optimistic. Has the kind of personality that makes you want to edit them with a flower crown. Sensitive to others’ emotions.

Floireans (Menteith) (she/they)

Power: Can charm/pacify the feelings of others with any instrument. (She favours the lute and the flute.)

Relationships: In a poly relationship with Ross, Angus, Lennox, and Caithness.

Vibes: Just wants everyone to sit down and chill a little. Not afraid to yell at people for yelling at her family and friends.

Teàrlaidh (Caithness) (he/him)

Power: Can manipulate dirt, stone, and clay.

Relationships: In a poly relationship with Ross, Angus, Lennox, and Menteith.

Vibes: The one who tries to keep everyone in line. Also the quietest of the minor thanes.

Maolsneachda (Cawdor) (he/him)

Power: Super strength that can only be accessed via cannibalism.

Relationships: In a relationship with Macdonwald. Keeps flirting with + killing and eating other people though. Macdonwald’s fine with it because he also eats people.

Vibes: Capable of long-term manipulation. However, he’s also notoriously impatient and tends to act in his own interest.

Macdonwald mac Ruaidhrí (he/him)

Power: Can alter the memories (and therefore opinions) of others with his words.

Relationships: In a relationship with Maolsneachda (Cawdor).

Vibes: Enjoys saying what’s on his mind but knows when to stay quiet. Generally works in the interest of self-preservation (except for everything with Cawdor, I guess).

Charles (Galloway) (he/him)

Power: Can manipulate glass.

Relationships: Brother of Ronan Bearach (Angus). Got romanced, killed, and eaten by Cawdor.

Taran (Atholl) (he/they)

Power: Can transform into different animals.

Relationships: Got romanced, killed, and eaten by Cawdor. 

Vibes: Very rowdy and free-spirited. Never one to back down from a challenge (for better or for worse). 

Kenna (Lewis) (he/she/they)

Power: Can grow or shrink in size (up to 2x or 0.25x their height).

Relationships: Got romanced, killed, and eaten by Cawdor. 

Vibes: Generally shy and insecure. Doesn’t like loud noises or crowded places. Thinks snowy winter mornings are the best kind.

Luc (Aberdeen) (he/him)

Power: Can manipulate the emotions of others with his voice. 

Relationships: Brother of Seyton. Close friends with Sutherland. 

Vibes: Charismatic, though that might just be his power forcing everyone to think so. Majored in being condescendingly suave. 

Artair (Sutherland) (he/him)

Power: Can put other people to sleep. 

Relationships: Close friends with Aberdeen. 

Vibes: Extremely unbothered. Like “stack 12 pieces of bread on him” unbothered. He tries not to get involved with things that are too much for him to handle. 

Seyton (he/him)

Power: Can form bargains with others (much like fey or demons) and can even agree to trade intangible things/concepts.

Relationships: Brother of Luc (Aberdeen).

Vibes: Keeps his true motives extremely secret. Definitely not doing anything to get Macbeth to like him, but Macbeth knows he needs Seyton around.

Siward (he/him)

Power: Half-dragon. Can shapeshift his body to manifest dragon-like features, such as a tail, wings, or claws. Can also breathe fire.

duff/banquo i feel like i've asked this before but let's do it. potentially the most boring ship ever because they're both foils to the same person in the same way

. i dont like it. hi yeah im gonna say it i dont like duffquo im sorry macbeth fandom. like it's not? there's nothing there. they interact a total of like once and maybe twice if you stretch the castle arrival scene and in both context its. more overshadowed by duncan and macbeth.

[leximitchells]

I could see Ben od’ing being Thursdays duff duff. I see there’s another Metro article about Ben’s week written by Duncan heavily hinting that Kathy’s decision to shut Ben out is a big mistake. I can see it all converging - Kathy’s mistake, Callum’s refusal to hear him out and his last words to Ben, Phil’s general impotence, Sam being the reason Ben has access to harder drugs in the first place…

exactly, it makes so much sense

[nomeancity]

For the unpopular opinions ask meme (though they're probably not that unpopular):

1. I don't know whether it's because my heart still pines for Mike Jardine or the later stories just lack substance, but I'm not fond of the Burke era.

2. I actually loved Livingstone and would have enjoyed watching him and Jardine bicker a bit longer.

3. ff.net assures me this is not as unpopular an opinion as I first thought: I do ship Fraser and Ross.(And I blame the ep 'Bloodlines' for it).

I'm not sure if I'm just supposed to rate these. But I thought it would be fun to put in my two pennies worth anyway.

I don't know whether it's because my heart still pines for Mike Jardine or the later stories just lack substance, but I'm not fond of the Burke era

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

Funnily enough, the Burke era was my introduction to the show (I became a fan while the show was still on air). So, I should be a bigger fan of that era. But I never really found them as rewatachable as earlier eps. I also found myself more excited to watch an older ep I hadn't seen before to an upcoming new ep. While it doesn't help that I became a big Jardine fan, I do think there are other factors as to why I'm not a fan of that era now. But that would take up a whole blog post. 😂

2. I actually loved Livingstone and would have enjoyed watching him and Jardine bicker a bit longer.

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

I partly agree with this. I love Livingstone, and I think the pre-Michael episodes are really interesting. But I kinda feel like he left at the right time. Most of my views on this is a result of knowing that Macpherson was always intended as a replacement for Duncan (with the option of being a replacement for the Kenny Forfar character had the latter stayed). While it might have been interesting to have seen more bickering between them, I think their interaction in "Forbidden Fruit" tells us all we need to know.

And if Livingstone did stay for longer. What happens when he does leave? Would it just be Taggart and Jardine? Or would it mean bringing in a new character? Would that new character be the DS or would Jardine still get his promotion? Would this intefer with Blythe Duff joining the show? Basically, while I enjoy Livingstone. Him staying in it for longer has the power to change the show's history, and not really in a way I really want it to.

3. ff.net assures me this is not as unpopular an opinion as I first thought: I do ship Fraser and Ross.(And I blame the ep 'Bloodlines' for it).

strongly agree | agree | neutral | disagree | strongly disagree

This is only neutral as I've never really given it much thought. So I've no strong feelings. But I do see what you mean by that ep. I love the scene when the window gets smashed. Saying that though, I've recently made a gifset of them (which has yet to be posted) that kinda gave me shippy vibes. And it's not from "Bloodlines".

Thanks for the ask. Sorry I went on a tangent. 😂

[ancestral-anecdotes]

A Tale of Two Family Homes

I was listening to a genealogy podcast during which the host interviewed a person who does house histories, and it made me think about these two ancestral homes. The fancy house, called Rockforest, was the home of great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, Sir James Cotter, Baronet, and is near the city of Mallow in County Cork, Ireland. Probably the last of our ancestors to actually stay in the home might have been great-great-grandfather James Cotter, a younger son of a younger son, etc., who emigrated with his parents in 1835. The smaller house was called Buttar's Loan Cottage, also called Oak Cottage in a census record. It was the home of great-great-grandparents Alexander and Catherine Duff, who are in the photograph, and is now in the city of Dundee, Scotland. At the time the Duffs lived there, it was a cottage on the Camperdown estate near Dundee, the home of Admiral Duncan, the Earl of Camperdown. Alexander worked on the estate as a forester and carriage driver. I'm sure my great-grandfather, Charles Duff, would have been in the home many times before he emigrated in 1872. I'm very thankful that I've actually been inside both houses, Rockforest in 2005 and Oak Cottage in 2000. Rockforest has been for sale a few times since I visited, but it's a little out of my price range. Both homes, despite their obvious differences, had a warm, inviting feel to them. They're a reminder for those of us who are descendants of immigrants that no matter who or what our ancestors were, they left their homes and families for what they hoped would be a better life for their own posterity and that we alone are responsible for what we do with our lives. Two homes, two ancestors, one with servants to care for his every need, and one who served as a lowly servant for another man. And they both ended up with me!

i cant stop thinking about a magical girl AU for my OCs and now im like. magical girl AU macbeth.

vague ideas:

blood-covered macbeth post-magical-transformation standing over dead duncan

all of the guys are in madoka magical dresses and all of the ladies are in saint seiya armor. not for any themes or anything i just want to put lady macbeth in armor and put macduff in a dress

no one but lady macbeth knows about macbeth's powers/outfit because he never transforms in front of anyone (yknow the whole. hypermasculinity thing.)

macbeth has ice powers. he kills duncan with an icicle or something. malcolm has water powers. framing the princes only gets easier lmao

i think duff would have fire powers and banquo gets earth powers

lady macbeth adopting more and more layers of armour until she's fully suited up with a helmet that blocks her face and everything, representing her dissembling and stuff

"the queen, my lord, is dead." and macbeth looks over at the full suit of plate armour on the bed and is like ",,,is that truly her, beneath all that?" idk idk

lady macduff with sword and shield and armor defending her children.... crying. sobbing, even

malcolm making the trees move by manipulating the water in the xylem (you know i gotta have malcolm directly responsible for the wood literally coming to dunsinane. i have to.)

the first time duff sees macbeth transformed is during their act 5 fight. their outfits are exactly the same with mirrored colour palettes.

no one is safe. magical girl duncan

Season 3: finished (February/March 2022)

[sarahthecarsfan]

I think these two look a bit similar. Well, they both are humans, they both have brown hair, and they both have something to do with Elmyra Duff. Duncan is Elmyra's brother, while Monty is Elmyra's crush.

chapter 23

its rainy and im waiting for my strawberry fields in farmville so that means its nesbo time

flashback. duff's invited macbeth to his and merideth's wedding

macbeth says no

he says "I owe you dragon blood."

then he wakes up and is like "that was stupid af."

jack comes in like "sir, it's lady!"

uh oh

macbeth's like "whats wrong is she sleepwalking?" yes she is and she's on the roof

macbeth's freaked out bc jack never told him that she got on the roof

he's even more freaked out when he sees what she's got.

the uh.

yeah it's the dead baby

she's got the dead baby.

macbeth's like "watch her, i'll sleep in the other room"

he's only alive now because of duff and lady and brew apparently.

guess who's sleeping in duncans room!! it's macbeth

he goes to sleep and duncan and malcolm are in the bed with him

to quote my friend: what is this, a god damn threesome?

macbeth wriggles so they fall off the bed and then duff, fleance, and banquo come in

once again to quote my friend: what is this, a god damn orgy?

they want "justice and our sleep back"

he yells "i can't be killed get out mortals! the person who can kill me isnt born!"
