#I am the sibling that gets full body yeeted
Text
Swiss, watching Sunshine and Dew fight: "What're the orange drink twins up to now?" Aether, thinks for a moment: "Ohhh... Sunny D, right... Uhh, honestly, I don't know. Dew breathed 'weird' according to Sunny and they've been fighting ever since." Swiss, watching them slap each other: "I don't get it. Shouldn't they get along better as siblings?" Rain, staring into the distance: "No." Swiss: "No?" Rain, one of many, many siblings, shaking his head: "No." Swiss: "Oh." -winces as Sunny spins Dew around by his arms and lets go- "Ooh! Oh! Oh, fuck-" Dew, climbing over the overturned couch: "Again, again!" Sunny, impressed: "YOU FLEW SO FAR!" Aether: "...I'm kind of glad I was an only kit now." Rain: "Don't worry, they'll stop once one of them gets hurt for real." Aether: "That's not reassuring, Rain!"

my investment in genshin this time around has been much much shorter lived than expected
this is just a sleep-deprived 5 am rant bc i cannot sleep
i mean, part of it might be spoilers but also the lack of building up to plot that I missed (since my friend played some of the story while using my account as an alt). the issue is that i dont care enough about inazuma’s plot to look it up and see what happened. like ive met ei. i did her second quest. i know enough about raiden shogun to guess. i dont give a single fuck about kujo sara so watching her short-lived fallout from ideology is frankly unappealing. kokomi i liked only bc of a fancomic and the in-game version is much more disappointing. i still forget gorou exists. doing kazuha’s quest is frankly wasting the time i spend alive. i think there’s other characters in inazuma but i keep forgetting who they are so it’s like, whatever
why are itto and shinobu the only two characters from inazuma i actually like???
it is just impossible for me to be invested in inazuma story, and the same issue is happening in sumeru. sumeru the problem is a mix of spoilers but also that i am SO DONE with the traveler having three personality traits
1. i single-handedly saved countries. pay my allies no mind. isn’t it great i owned the jade chamber and that the anemo god is still awol and whatever the fuck went down in inazuma?
2. busybody
3. omg, sUCH a HERo
i really hate it!!!
every time i think im getting invested the focus shifts from characters and their interactions (i thought!!! little sick rich lady and body guard pyro lady and dancer hydro lady had a nice thing going on!!!) back to the traveler and their bullshit quest to go see the dendro archon (for what???? honestly if the writers REALLY cared about the story the motivation would stop being flimsy-ass lets travel teyvat uhuhuh and more ‘that dainsleif fellow is my closest link to finding my awol sibling and if i cannot find my sibling or the god that yeeted us here then by GOLLY i will track dainsleif and other khaen’riah survivors/relics across teyvat until i find one of them again)
(which like!!! could work really well for inazuma and sumeru bc 1. vision stopping might be sus enough for traveler to suspect abyss involvement. but also they got hit really bad by the cataclysm and 2. i havent done the quest yet but there’s a huge-ass ruin guard??? just lying around??? also the irminsul tree links whatnot)
MY POINT IS
i really hate that there’s no motivation to travel around and i hate the boastful traveler and i hate paimon’s screechy voice (i went back to see clips of mond and her voice is SO MUCH LESS SCREECHY) and i really, really fucking despise the grinding
why does every new character need a specific artifact. why do we have to grind so much. if i want to use any of my cast of characters i have to grind the fuck out of them first or they die in three seconds or do nothing. heaven forbid your character scale off anything but attack or hp with how rare things like energy recharge are. like
i thought it was just that i disliked fighting games. im kinda bad at them. and i dont like genshin fighting. i keep wanting to play a ton of rpgs (assasin’s creed, mass effect), but i get tired thinking about fighting. but then i realized, im like 40+ runs in on hades and still going strong. and that game is pure combat.
i just hate games where the combat feels meaningless
at least in hades i know each run brings me slowly closer to escaping the underworld. in genshin after grinding for a full hour (a bit longer than a long slow run in hades) i’ll be lucky if i got anything of use. maybe if you just fight bosses for ascension materials. otherwise get fucked
it just exhausts me and not even puzzles or exploration can make me not feel tired at the idea of playing (And god, i hate the aranara quest run around collecting seeds things.... it could be worse but it could also just be lile. a puzzle instead of dash dash dash con)
anyway i think imma take another break, probably shorter since genshin is what i play when i am bored simply bc its there and easy and i can quit after 5 mins with zero progress lost. a realization brough to you by the realization i was only logging in to get primos for nahida, who i have not met and whom spoilers did not endear me to (also she’s a kid character and except for klee i universally am extremely indifferent to them), whom i was told is “ultra good” for fighting and spiral. and who i’d still have to build up. on the off chance i win 50/50
yeah, no

So I was thinking, Five need a full blown ptsd breakdown in season 3.
He has like short burst of it during season 1 and 2, and one particular scene that has burned into my mind was that one short clip in the finale in season 2, where he was hiding under the table. Back then, I felt it was a bit odd, that a full grown assassin (granted he was in a much younger body but he had all these years of experience in both the Commission and the apocalypse) was panicking for his life, desperately trying to hide for cover under the table as bullets rained on him. It wasn't until I read some fanfics that it really downed on me that deep down, he is still a kid. Yeah sure, he's 58, but he grew up most of his life in the apocalypse, wasting away. He left his childhood, his life, everything he knew back in the academy and his only remaining identity that was left with him was his tattoo and uniform, nothing else.  
He may had grew up physically, seen too much no human should, gained all these years of experience but mentally, he never did. I mean come on, homeboy's wife was a mannequin (no offense Dolores) that I am well aware he needed. But when you really think about it, how could anyone really grow up in isolation. He only had his thoughts and a burning landscape. He shared his thoughts and talked to himself this whole time, his only "joy" was probably figuring out the right equation to get back to his family, bickering with Dolores because I just know they probably discuss on what colored scarf Dolores would like and downing whatever alcohol he could find.
He matured faster than any normal kid, no thanks to Reginald abusive upbringing, but before the whole time travelling shitstorm, he still had his family, things to play with (his toy truck bless this boy), entertained himself with mischief acts like any other kid. But he was tossed into the apocalypse so suddenly, forced to bury his siblings and figure out how to survive. What a kid experience when they are young will effect them as they grow up (heck it would occur to teenagers and adults too) because it helps them to cope, to adapt to a harsh environment. For Five, it was to drop everything he had and move forward because he can't afford to live if he ever wants a silver of hope to get back to his family. Five is honestly such a tragic story.
He had no time for fun. He didn't get to grow up. He didn't get to experience normal. How could he, when all his mind was filled with thought on how to survive till the next day or how to correct his equations.
Another thing is that when he came back, the first thing he did was made himself a fluffernutter sandwich. In one scene you could even see him playing with a toy train for a brief second. Sometimes throughout the whole show, the way he talks and acts is so, childlike/childish and I know some adults do that *cough* Klaus *cough* but Five (who is 58) yelled "officer" that one time because Diego wouldn't cooperate, or how he calls Lila "crazy lady". I don't think you would normally hear a full grown adult call someone "crazy lady". It just felt so childish, or maybe that's just me.
Let's get back to the scene that started this whole rant, when Five was hiding under the table as the commission agents rained down bullets on the Hargreeves siblings. It just felt so raw. At that very moment, he looked and acted like a child. I understand that if it's any of us in a similar situation we would do the same thing, but it just wasn't a very "Five" thing to do. He would normally try to figure out a way to get Diego to safety rather than running away, cowering by himself. 
Honestly, I am so interested in seeing what kind of person he will be if it wasn't for his slipped up in yeeting himself to the apocalyptic future. Would he grow up to be as sarcastic and rude as he is now? Would he still be so family oriented? Or would be grow up being much more arrogant (in the wrong way) where he looks down on his siblings (not that he hasn't done that yet but you get my point) Sometimes I wonder what will he do after the apocalypse is actually over. Klaus did mentioned that Five was addicted to the apocalypse, when really his only addiction was saving his family. So will he still live in paranoia after they succeeded in stopping the end of time? Will he even be able to separate the difference between “saving his family” and “stopping the apocalypse”. He's just overshadowing "saving his family" by slapping "apocalypse" on it (we all know he will probably kill himself before showing his sappy side to his family), but after all these years trying to stop it and actually doing so, can he still figure out what he was aiming for initially? Will he even live to see the day? Sometimes I wonder that if it's him that is actually the cause of the apocalypse since he was the one who time travelled to the future and maybe that is what causes this whole apocalyptic event to start but that’s a rant for another day.
I have successfully went sidetrack but all in all, I just want this grumpy tiny old man to have his breakdown. Like full on screaming and thrashing and crying because by god, he deserves to release the decades of pent up stress. I want his siblings to see that he isn’t this put together murder gremlin because in reality, he’s constantly freaking out trying to find a way to save them. He never grew up and I don't think he would have the chance if his idiotic siblings don't get their shit together.
Thank you for coming to my 1am rant.

Hello!! Can I request headcanons about gn mc who got sick (with fever or something to the point they can't go to school) and the twst boys decided to visit and take care of them? I've always enjoyed your headcanon! Thank you!!
Tumblr media
Riddle Rosehearts
He's got much of a weak immune system himself so he's usually prepared for unexpected situations like this. He knows what to do.
Just lay back against your pillow, do exactly as he says and you'll return to full health in no time
He'd probably be really angry if he finds you out of bed without his permission or spending too much time over your phone and reading books; he insists on you resting and much as possible.
He agrees on being possibly a -bit- over protective but he doesn't mind. If this will do any good at your healing process then he's more than okay with it.
Whenever you tell him to stop over stressing himself because of you he just goes: " Me ? Over stressing? Of course not! If you wish me to be calmer than I already am, then stop playing around and rest well till you get better."
He truly does work his hardest for you while you need him, from takings notes of what has been teached during your absence to spending at least 2 hours a day with you, making sure that nothing goes wrong.
As the strict leader of Heartslabyul, he usually spends most of the day watching over students and checking whether they are doing good at school and exams or not, but for now he cuts back on these responsibilities to take care of you. He may not shout that out loudly, but he always puts you before any other responsibilities he might have. Perhaps he enjoys spending time with you just as much as he enjoys having fresh strawberry tarts.
Trey Clover
You were still trying to catch up with the classes but Trey just knew that it'd be too much. It was him who made you forget about the school and instead, rest in your room.
You are a bit stressed out about not being able to take care of your chores, but thankfully he is there for you. He isn't known as heartslabyul's mother for no reason, make sure that he knows how to caress and pamper you better than anyone else.
Aside checking on you every day and bringing you additional medicines and food, he makes sure to collect notes of everything that is teached during your apsence so you won't have problems catching up with the studies afterwards . No need to mention that his cooking on the other hand is stunning, 5 star chef Trey at your service.
He understands that it might be a bit boring laying down in bed without anyone to talk to, so he often comes to you as you need someone to talk to and also brings you your favorite books to read so you won't get any bored when he can't be there.
He never says a word to make you feel any bad or frustrating about being nursed by him, instead he knows how to motivate you to get better even sooner: " Nursing you is absolutely adorable, but I don't want my dear (y/n) stuck in a bed all day while I'm willing to show you way more exciting things than a just couple of books,"
Cater Diamond
Clones, clones and clones :Time to get to work! The best part with it is that he can always make sure to have at least one of his clones watching over you even if he's busy with school or stuff, not that he lets you know what he's doing though.
You wonder why Cater's staying with you 24/7, as a third year student, isn't he supposed to be like, really busy with studying? Cater assures you that there's nothing to worry about, and it seriously isn't. He can always catch up with everything even his actual self stays all night at yours.
While his use of clones might seem a bit tricky, he still makes sure to provide you with anything you as long as you're sick need and even more: Bringing you roses and chibi, stuffed animals as gifts, along with sweet chill chats whenever you're awake, sending you soft love quotes with a bunches of colorful hearts and kisses via text even as he's right beside you, He enjoys how you'll need to look up your messages to see what he texts you allthough he's sitting just a few meters away from you. Aw, the way you blush whenever youlok at your phone, how cute~
Ace Trappola
What's the purpose of going to school when he does not understand a single word of it while his mind is all stuck on you? What are doing now? Are you fine? Does your chest Still hurt? Has your pain gotten any worse? Is there someone with you right now? What if you need help??
He's about to lose his mind, he tries asking someone free to check on you but there doesn't seem to be such a person available at the moment. 'That's it , I'll go on my own'
With the help of the year gang ( Jack, Deuce and Epel) he fakes breaking his leg during a PE session and yeets off the school for an entire week. YES!
He is moving to your place for a couple of days and Deuce will cover up for him whenever someone asks where Ace is.
Ace just knows that you're sick, he isn't sure of the exact name or type of your illness. On his way to yours, he fills a bag with anything he finds at Heartslabyul's cabinets with any title as -medicine- for you. He'll later look for the right one you need between them.
When you get to look into what he has brought, you aren't sure if he's kidding or not and when you ask, Ace realizes that he's really goofed up: what he actually brought was nothing else than animal medicines, and he he literally brought you each and every of them existing in Heartslabyul; how come didn't he see the pets/only label-??
You're lucky that you already have your medicines prepared, so you tell him not to worry about it. He feels so damn embarrassed wanting to melt into earth right now, but you have to admit he really lifted up your mood. You're happy to have your cute, Crabby-haired idiot besides you while you're sick, and he tries his best to help you with cooking and making sure of you taking your right medicines on time to make up for the mess he made on his first day:" Ehehe...at least...you can use some of them when Grim gets sick, right ?"
Deuce Spade
He really wants to stay there taking care of you but... he has to go to school as well. He has to get much higher grades this semester if he doesn't want to have to spend another year as a first year.
He can't skip any of classes, but promises to spend the rest of his day after school.
He rushes with his school uniform still on to your place, not wanting to be even a second late . He has to carry some casual clothes along with his books since he wants to stay over nights if you need him.
Due to get getting in trouble a lot back at the time, he's rather educated in medical field so he knows much and less of what he'll need to do as you're sick?
His cooking isn't something he can rely on so he goes to Trey, telling that he needs some soup for Ace since he seems to be looking a bit sick lately?
He prepares your food, brings you warm towels, repeatedly checks your body temperature and when you're finally asleep, gets to his own studies. He ends up Having fewer than 3 hours of night sleep multiplr times and once, he didn't get any sleep at all.
He tries his hardest to look his best in front of you so you won't notice how terrible he actually is; when you question the bags under his eyes, he claims them to be left from the mascara which a couple of guys put on him a few days ago for fun and consistently laughs. Damn, this boy doesn't even know how to lie huh? He is literally dying, but he won't tell you a word. He can handle worse...
When you finally return to full health you realize how terrible he's been doing lately and you take rule of his nurse this time. Making sure that your cinnamon roll would finally get some sleep.
Tumblr media
Leona Kingscholar
"My room, now". You look way too terrible to be able to make it to the classes therefore he has to make sure that you won't do anything stupid while you need to be taking some rest.
Bringing you to his own room wasn't his main intention since he just wanted to keep an eye on you but couldn't afford to visit you everyday if you didn't live any close to him so, easiest solution to the problem would be you staying with him.
He lets you use his bed but keeps on reminding you that it's just because you're sick so you better not be expecting such things to ever happen again. He would fall asleep in less than a minute at whatever he lays his head on, so sleeping on the ground isn't as hard as it seems. He just had to make sure that you would't step on him or his tail when you walk out of the bed.
He can ask Ruggie to nurse you and all, but decides to do most of your stuff on his own because it'd be a lot worse if Ruggie too gets sick. Sharing the same room with you has already put him on a pretty high infection risk so, that wouldn't really matter if he's the one nursing you or not. He doesn't really mind getting sick either, a free chance to take some days off school and chill; why not ?
He turns out to be pretty good with board games and there's no need to worry about getting bored while you can go for 100+ chess matches with Leona winning you each and every time; a bit ironic, but entertraining nonetheless.
He's actually really enjoying spending time with you, but isn't really expressing it. The only time when he actually shows some direct affection is when he plants secret kisses on your forehead as you're asleep.
Ruggie Bucchi
He has grown up in an awfully poor family with multiple siblings, so he's pretty familiar to the pain of seeing those you hold dear sick .He has turned into a not only responsible but also supportive boy toward friends and family, so you can make sure that he can take the best care of you while you're sick.
Perhaps his only problem is...Leona. He'd need Ruggie around even during school time and the hyena boy can't even have a full 30 minutes away from him which makes it impossible for Ruggie to take his time checking on you at least once a day.
Well, he has to find a way to babysit both of you at the same time so, -Let's take you to his own room-
Great ! He no longer needs to worry now that he can take care of you both. Leona too agrees on you staying at his as long as you don't cause any trouble.
Poor Ruggie has to sleep on the floor but assure you that he rarely gets to be the one sleeping on bed back in the home so, he is kinda used to sleeping on the cold ground.
He knows how to cook? Much and and less of it but who cares? He just asks you what you want and returns with it in 30 minutes; guess why: Because he'd just borrow the food from someone else. He doesn't mind his dirty ways indeed, you're sick so, you're more important than some dude wanting to chill on his food during lunchtime.
He just takes a list of medicines you may need and returns with all of them in his bag. He has to come at the right time on his own every time you have to take any of them since you'd most likely either fall asleep or forget to take them on time.
Enjoy your time with him, because it's gonna be a real luxury. He'd treat you nothing less than the way he treats Leona as he's sick so, you may consider yourself a part of a royal family at his service.
Jack Howl
Fluffy tsundere wolf is ready to give up on all he's got for you, what on earth might be sweeter than this ?
The moment, no, the second he realizes that you're not feeling well, Jack would immediately take you to the nurse office to see if you're. It's such a relief that it isn't thst serious, all you need to do is to take some rest.
Meanwhile you're resting in bed, he'll do the shopping and asks the kitchen for some soup ( You're sick you can't have too salty or sweet foods like normal cafeteria meals ) He gives up on his own meal to get some for you instead, it's just hunger of course he can handle it.
He feeds you and makes sure that you'll finish your entire meal, reminds you to take your medicines on time, brings you your favorite books to read and, most importantly, listens to... anything you'd ask him for.
He hardly ever lets anyone touch his ears or tail but if it's you, why not? You even fall asleep hugging his tail like a doll and he just patiently waits for you to wake up, blushing as he appreciates how cute you look while asleep.
Damn he has to keep the distance otherwise he as well would end up being sick but, it just seems impossible to say no when you ask for cuddles.
Jack tells you stories of his home town and national legends making your mouth drop in fascination. His stories seem to amaze him just as they amaze you and it makes him unbelievably happy to see you liking things he's been appreciating all over his life.
He even gets to the point of talking about his will to become all mighty and strong just like the magicians he looks up to, especially Leona. Just watching his strength gives you the will to overcome your illness and be at least a bit like Jack; he's really great, isn't he?
Tumblr media
Azul Ashengrotto
No no no- Unacceptable! You shouldn't be sick, you shouldn't -get- sick- He told you to watch what you eat and what you wear as it's raining out there - HE TOLD YOU A MILLION TIMES- But now what? You are sick.
Azul panicks, he keeps on exaggerating the whole thing even if it's just a normal cold. He just isn't the type to easily deal with sicknesses. Whenever he catches a cold, it'll take him weeks to return to full health due to how weak his body is and, he's so worried about you being the same.
Soup, warm water bath, Medicines , magic potions to reduce the fever, ultimate revival spells... he showers you in all of them. Even if the virus won't kill you Azul's overprotection will most likely do, and he'll get really mad if you tell him that he's exaggerating it.
When you regain half of your full health, you ask him to let you return to school and- He immediately pits you back in bed: "No leavings, not until you're done with this troublesome fever or whatever."
You feel like an adult forced to stay in a cradle and wear diapers meanwhile Azul thinks that you're too naive to take your health seriously.
When you finally manage to pull him over, you realize how sick and pale he's gotten since you got sick. The bags under his eyes proved that he hasn't been getting much of sleep recently. "God what have you done to yourself-"
You finally tell him that he's the one who needs help , not you. You plant a kiss on his cheek and force his head to your lap, wanting him to get some sleep. He slowly understands that he might've been taking it a bit too seriously, but since you are fine now, he's kinda glad that he took it hard on you. He just wants you to be safe and sound; even if his it's going to cost his own health on the first placd.
Jade Leech
Humans get sick? It's pretty rare of aquatic creatures, especially eels to get sick so Jade's pretty new to this . 'wow , pathetic , aren't humans?' he thinks . Well anyway he can't just stand back and make fun humans while you seem to be in serious pain, but what can he do? He still has a lot to learn about human life and it's his first time having one of them sick, oh man.
Well, they tell that you should get some...rest ? Well maybe he should take you to bed. First step done , let's go for the rest. He blocks several of his classmates in the corners asking for... information. He simply takes notes . Possibly useful medicines and meals, hours of sleeping, allowed activities, useful tips, warnings, etc.
He has to read the list several times to make sure that he's got it all right. Let's nurse (y/n).
He unexpectedly goes from 0 to 100 like bam- bye eel boy hello nurse Leech. He'll turn your room into a hospital room, a good one though, filled with dolls and flowers and anything he was told to add because they send away positive vibes.
His cooking on the other hand is amazing. He'll look for several light meals for sick bodies but- chooses those which match your tastes . You can't help but to love everything he cooks . Chef's kiss.
He changes your bed pillow and cloths everyday, returning with washed, silky pillows and covers . A warm, smooth bed is what you need for a good sleep.
If there was such a status he would've been the god of nursing; wow you would've needed pay him off a lot for his service if he wasn't giving it all to his darling for free.
When you finally regain your health, he just has one more question left to ask before leading you to your daily classes: "Now now dear, would you mind rating me , and my nursing service?"
seem like he's really curious to see whether he's done it correctly or not.
Floyd Leech
Things seem so uncool when you're not as energetic as always , pale skin as if you're choking on lack of oxygen and bizarreness in your movements like a doll, smh, so boring.
Just like Jade, he's pretty new to surface life and watching you bear with illness looks pretty weird in his eyes?
When Jade, finally, informs him on what exactly happens to human body while struggling with an illness and what he must do to you to get rid of this annoying mode, he understands. Floyd still finds human's body shitty for how weak it is but decides to use Jade's words as a guide to deal with you.
A warm bed, fluffy pillows and stuffed animals, these seemed to be enough for step one: Enough of rest and sleep. He can't blame you on this one though, sleeping is always amazing. Something that never gets boring. Everything seems to be pretty fine to begin with, sadly it won't last any longer than a few hours-
He's told to bring you food, but when he returns with 4 bags filled with chocolate, candy, soda and chips; it's obvious that he didn't get the point correctly. Jade explains that your body is still way to weak for too salty or sweet foods, even highly cooked meals would worsen your immune system and make it take much longer to be healed.
Floyd goes for a second pick up and this time: this time returns with raw potatoes and frozen meat- Raw potatoes and frozen meat-. Well, he just followed everything Jade told him...? Neither too salty nor to sweet, and raw because Jade told him not to bring over-cooked stuff. Even if the virus did you no harm you would've probably died under his food selections if Jade wasn't there to stop him...
While his food choices might be horrible, Floyd's still one of the best mutuals you can have close when you aren't feeling well. With him beside you, giggling and chuckling as he rambles on how boring his day was, you've got to admit that you'd rarely feel sick when he's around. Although you're sick at the moment, nothing seems to have changed between the two of you, he enjoys spending time with you now just as much as he enjoys it when you're all safe and sound.
Well...maybe he can't be the best nurse you'd get to have , but one thing's for sure: No one can ever make you laugh like he does and, you know what say: Laughter is the best medicine~
Tumblr media
Kalim al asim
He can't be any more worried, he stresses out whenver a friend is sick and now, it's not just a friend, it's -you-, one of the dearest and closest ones Kalim had ever had; just how can he keep calm ???
He is being raised under severe health protection and hardly ever catches even a simple cold, several people had taught him strict health routines and he had to follow them all over his life, so he is considerably familiar with ways of overcoming and illness , and that's what he's here for!
Jamil forbids him from cooking since it's too dangerous if he needs to use any knifes, but that wouldn't hold him back from finding enormous food recipes based on your favorite condiments to make your meal more pleasant.
He makes sure to prepare anything you need in a matter of seconds, golden peacock or 5000 camels, doesn't matter ! He's got way more than enough and what use would be better than giving them to you?
He can take care of you on his own, but Jamil insists on Kalim leaving it all to him and stay away from you as much as possible (No need to mention the high risk of infection for Kalim since he's almost sticking to you all the time)
Jamil as well would caress you meanwhile you rest at Scarabia (Right, Kalim proudly brought you there ) and Kalim, makes sure to stay close to you as much as he can, mostly when Jamil isn't around to tell him off- He doesn't want to put Jamil in more trouble but, you are his first priority.
You're bound to your bed, but just having Kalim around brings way more fascinating adventures than what you might get to see out there. His stories really do show you to a whole new world and takes the pain in your lungs and chest way further that your mind could catch . Perhaps Kalim is he one and only who can make your mind fly, even as your body's laying lifelessly in bed.
Jamil Viper
For the first time, someone stressed him out more than Kalim always does. He's always expecting to be scared to death because of him, but because of you? Damn he didn't see this coming.
Depending on what your illness is, he manages to freak out even more or clam himself down to his sane self, but the main point is how he's got to serve you all the best until you're totally safe.
He soon prepares any kind of medicine and chemical you may need and you have to use them all properly, don't even think of rejecting any single one of them otherwise Jamil would force feed you: "Don't be such a baby, you won't get any better unless you have these"
Just like Azul, he might be a bit overprotective with your health since he doesn't even let you leave the bed for more than a few minutes. He insists on you avoiding any sort of activities that may be tiring or heavy to your body.
To be honest, the thought of using his snake whisper on you when you don't behave or ask him to stop being so strict over a simple illness crosses his mind. Luckily, he refuses to use it. You're still his lover that'd be too heartless of him to take advantage of you like this just because you can't see how much he loves you.
He needs to keep the distance, but has to admit that it can be really hard to avoid hugging and kissing all over your face when you're gazing at him with that sweet smile.
Having you close makes Jamil realize how affectionate he actually is: How much he misses the healthy and happy you who he was never in a danger. Well maybe this nursing days gives him a lesson to at least try to have some sweeter time with you while you are all safe and sound - and not tiredly laying in your bed.

You can consider yourself nothing less than a Prince/ Princess when Vil of all people is caressing you. Your body is still way too weak to have control of anything going on in your life at the moment, and that's how Vil takes control over all of them- all in your life. Which means that you now have to live and do as he wishes.
He will take no effort in turning you into one of the fairest of all students in school (Not that you'll ever reach him though) as long as he can have his eyes over you. His rules are way more than just -beauty- ; just as he can be the all fair and powerful Queen who steps on you, he knows how to play the role of the nurse like a Queen would do~
A royal maiden is only to serve the royal family, so it's time to show how much of a princess /prince you can be in bed. You don't need to worry about your medicines or meals since Vil's always organized and on time with them, not to mention that his cooking too seems to be pretty good. He uses light yet, nutritious recipes that you'd enjoy and you're really surprised because these kinds food don't really look tasty.
Perhaps he just needed an excuse all this time to get this close to you, so he can take care of anything he's been dreaming to do with you all this time. Pedicure and manicure, trying on new fruit masks, resting face and body muscles to have a smoother, cleaner skin, etc.
Your room is a beauty salon at this point and you usually forget that you're actually sick.
He works on not only your physical beauty but also your manners, he doesn't care if you're sick or not . It's the best time to take away your poor manners and habits.
Well the scary Queen has got his own soft spots too; while indirectly giving you beauty lessons, he enjoys teasing you as you sometimes look pretty naive and new to all dos and don'ts of a high-level life like his, and he's more than pleased to teach you: "Pull yourself together , potato."
Rook Hunt
He isn't really into the whole nursing game but- If it's an opportunity to stalk caress and admire you all night, why not?
He is lowkey familiar with the basics so, it isn't supposed to be that difficult to handle . Finding pills and medicines isn't hard either since they can all be found at mister S's shop. ( He would've liked it better if he had to get them from a moster or something, anything more adventurous)
Though he doesn't really like quiet and safe journeys he'd actually appreciate it if it's with you. And of course, he won't let anyone else take advantage. Let it just be with the two of you and all~
He isn't about to hurt or scare you in any sort way; it's true that he just loves it when things get a bit dangerous but, he knows how to manage excitement as well. You want him to be a soft gentleman? Then that's what he's going to be.
Rook would be the softest Rook you could've ever imagined when he plays the nurse. It can't even be called nursing: It's about a passionate lover spending all his time with his darling who isn't feeling well. Even his expressions are taken to a totally different level, the mysterious smile he always puts on is replaced with a worried and, mildly sad gaze that makes your heart melt.
Might sound too dramatic bug he may even sing you to sleep. Sweetest words ever dancing to the rhythm of his unique accent that make your cheeks hurt at trying not to blush. This isn't the only drama he's up to though, even his normal speaking often ends up with your mind drowning in feelings. He won't bother giving you soft kisses on hand and forehead when you don't expect it. He likes surprising you, even if it's in a romantic way.
And...the real Rook, is only out when you're asleep. Sitting on a chair just a few inches away from your bed, a pair of eyes carefully follow the pace of your chest as it rises and falls. He's never tired, a huntsman gets no sleep as long as his prey's close by. Wow, if sweetness is all he needed to approach you, then he should give it a try more often~
Epel Felmier
His first reaction to hearing of you being sick is summarised in :Gasping, Blushing, Questioning, Sad puppy eyes. "It's just a simple fever...right? (Y/n) will soon be better..." , Epel confronts himself. He isn't getting overly emotional, but when it comes to you, he does have a sensitive spot.
At first, it is his anxiety over your health that makes him want to come over to your house to check up on you everyday but , it soon ends up being more serious. What if this is an opportunity to prove his reliability? You'd finally get to see how much of a strong and helpful man he can be. Even as he looks soft.
While Epel's trying his hardesr to seem a tough as possible, you can't help but to adore his cuteness as he is doing his best while you're sick. He bakes you the best of apple pies you've ever had and you have to admit; being sick can't hold you back from enjoying the sweet taste of fresh, caramelized baked apples melting in your mouth.
Growing up to be a country boy, he never really relied on chemicals as a useful cure to any illnesses. He's more into organic ways of helping human body into regaining its lost energy, which can be put as : 1) Healthy food 2) Enough of sleep and rest 3) Lifted up spirits and enough of humor. He'd be really protective over the last option, he wants to make sure that your self-esteem and spirits would be way better than ever
He has to keep the distance, but some small cuddles would not hurt, right? Perhaps some small forehead kisses before bedtime too. He's still pretty uncomfortable with kisses but, since you're sick...that can be counted as an exception.
Tumblr media
Idia Shroud
He's been away from humanity for too long; long enough to almost forget that humans get sick. Robots sometimes have their codings crashed or their gears damaged, that's when they'll need an engineer to repair them . How did the cure system work with humans?? He can't really remember. Due to spending time with almost nobody except Ortho (who happens to be a robot) and hardly ever leaving his room and as the result, barely getting sick, Idia is pretty new to human body's metabolism; he isn't sure of what he might be able to do for you. But, humans have something called...immune system, right? Ah something that heals body on its own. Well maybe relying on that would be enough.
He decides to give you some far distance support instead of comimg all way down to your dorm . He can't be any more happier of technology's existence for such cases. Your immune system can heal you on its own, all he've got to do is to send some motivation your way. The summary of most of his extremely motivational texts would be : "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! Keep it up (y/n)!!👊✨💥" and when you reply telling him how terrible you're feeling he'd just try to look for strongers sentences-
He repeatedly mistakes humans and robots and accidently texts you:" why don't you get someone to repair you?" several times. Then goes to bang his head against the wall realizing how dumb he's acting.
When you get worse he gives up. Maybe those sentences wasn't enough of motivation . Idia really does want to come visit you in person but he seems to be bound to his area. Well at least, Ortho isn't, right? He comes up with a way better idea to program Ortho to take care of you while Idia can't do it himself. He copied hundreds of anatomy, human biology and medicine to Ortho's data list. Well that seems to be enough. He can now cook, wash clothes, brings you your medicines and most importantly, remain by your side all the time as you may need help. Idia puts s small camera on Ortho so he'd be able to watch what's going on as long as you need Ortho's his help. He feels quite guilty for not showing up on his own but- maybe it's just better this way. Coming in person would do no good but him freaking out at not knowing what to do which would end up in making you feel worse. Long distance watch as he controls Ortho around is way better, even if he has to keep his eyes on tablet 24/7. He cuts back on his sleeping to make sure that nothing would go wrong. Even long distance watch seems to be stressful at this point...
He does care about you, a lot, but right now, he's no prepared to show physical affection. Let him show his love through his very own ways, he's just taking baby steps with you <3
Tumblr media
Malleus Draconia
"Now now little one, don't give in so easealy. I know you're stronger than this..." Malleus motivates you. You certainly aren't going to die just because of a simple fever but still, wow. Humans -are- truly weak and fragile. He shouldn't really be caring for a mortal being especially if it's a human, but you are an 'exception'; you always are.
He could just leave you to Lilia and Sebek and you would've been under their watch and care 24/7, but he prefers to do this on his own since you are his favorite creature. He doesn't mind seeing how you'd overcome the pain even if it's with a simple cold. He wants to get more of you and your expressions.
He doesn't really have much to do, magic can do it all. All it takes to turn your depressing room into a prince/princess's dreamy bedroom is a twist of a finger. Go on and tell him what you want , you shall have in within a second. "All the best for you, child of man~"
While his significant magic skills are all truly stunning and helpful, his presence on his own seems to be the best part of him nursing you. He is your tsunotarou, afterall~ Not the descendant of Mistress of all Evil but only when it comes to you.
Sometimes he'd make you wish you'd stay in bed forever and ever, all to have him here, by your side. Just to have his soft, slender fingers brushing against your cheek and playing with the tip of your hair.
He does talk, but most of the time being is spent in silence since he doesn't want to bother you if it's hard for you to talk. He may pretend to be busy with something else but it's just to take your mind over the fact that he's watching you all the time. His small gestures are just as sensual as his words. Kisses on forehead, locking his dragon eyes with you , brushing your soft hair with hand as you lay on his shoulder (not that he cares about keeping the distance although you're sick. Your human illnesses are way too weak to do any harm to him, anyway~ )
His favorite time of the day is when you're asleep. You're adorable and lovely all time but, your sleeping pose, it's unimaginably beautiful to him. Watching your calm face empty of any emotion followed by the calm, yet, organized pace in your breathing as your chest falls and rises. He barely gets any sleep during the night, he doesn't need it. Watching you is way more pleasing: "Sweet dreams, my precious little human~"
Lilia Vanrouge
The most experienced, dedicated nurse here. He's been raising many of baby faes and struggling with a young, fireball shooter baby Malleus over the years. Nursing a fragile ill human like you is no more than a warm-up for him.
Chill on your bed and let him take care of everything, from the warm towels to fluffy blankets and pillows. Smooth music playing in your room as you take short naps, plushies and teddy bears around your bed giving you feelings of a newborn baby sleeping in a warm and fancy bed.
That's not all, along with his professional nursing skills, having Lilia himself around would take it all to a whole new level. He is so full of contrasts; Young and old, quite and wild, wise and careless, serious and silly and probably hundreds of other adjectives you can name.
Where else would you find a nurse who'd play you your favorite rock tracks on his guitar in the afternoon while at night, brings you cookies and hot milk to have while listening to his old but -gold- stories before going to sleep?
Lilia has got it all, old, new, calm, wild, and perhaps that's how it's never boring when he's the one you are spending time with. 'Sickness with benefits' to call. But, don't forget his horrible cooking skills.
Better hide some canned food under your pillow to save yourself from starvation when he's not around, refuse to eat his food st any cost (otherwise you'll need another 2 week hospitalized because of food poisoning-)
Make sure to thank your adorable bat nurse when you're back to full health; even if your stomach's still in pain because of his nasty cooking.
Silver
It's...his first time taking care pf someone. He is neither experienced nor educated when it comes to human health... especially because of how he's been living with fairies (who barely get sick) all over his life. The only reliable source for him would be his own memories; how Lilia used to take care fo him when he was a child. There isn't much he can remember but that'd do
Nursing doesn't seem to be that hard when he actually gives it a try - Mostly about you sleeping all day. Wow if sleeping this much is considered to be a symptom of being sick, then Silver himself has to be sick as hell 24/7. He isn't really sure if that's concerning or not
He is doing good since he seems go be pretty responsible and calm toward the whole thing, but don't expect him to be on time.
Silver wants to make sure that you'll take your medicines on time but he often fails to. He oversleeps most of the time and when he's up, he'd panic knowing that you missed your hourly medicine again.
He'd lowkey feel frustrated and useless when he misses stuff because of his sleeping issues, especially when it comes to you. He have to go for a stronger method so, he ends up in using 7 different clocks and alarms to make sure that he won't miss anything anymore; you're sick. He has to do all his best to take care of you. Nobody matters more than you do. Alarm clocks he uses are freaking loud and give him a heart attack whenever he uses them to wake up. Poor guy would need a long sleep when you're better.
He often falls asleep next to your bed after making sure that you are having a peaceful night sleep. He places a goodnight kiss on your forehead lays his head at the bottom of your bed. Who knows, maybe he would dream of you tonight, again.
Sebek Zigvolt
There's no way that you'd ever come close to master Malleus but- he still cares for you, a lot. Perhaps as much as he cares for Malleus although he refuses to confess to it. He is trained and skilled for all possible emergencies so he's all prepared to take the best possible care of you and make sure that you'll return to full health in no time.
He just knows what he is doing and makes sure that things would run smoothly. He is keeping each and every aspect in consideration and can organize everything like no one else can. From your sleeping schedule to light exercises required as you're sick. He insists on you starting to develop a better life style so that you won't end up in bed and lose time like this.
It's nice to have someone keeping the balance of your life when you need it, but when it's Sebek we're talking about, know that he might go a bit -too far- with it. He'd be overly protective and strict while you need a considerable deal of sympathy and softness too since you're sick - He collects notes of everything that was teached while you were sick and brings them to you to study, telling you that it'd be impossible to keep up with the rest of the lessons unless you study them right now, in your bed. And when you complain of it being hard to read and sit due to how weak your body is, he returns with the solution: Audio books (He isn't giving up... deal with it )
Studying isn't your only issue: he's being protective over each and every muscle you move. He'd wake you up early in the morning for a light, morning work out and doesn't let you out of the bed for the rest of the day. Whenever you complain, that's what his answer would be: " Master Lilia has blessed me with these , gloriously impressive lessons he's learned through experiences within his long- lasting life!! I believe in his words from the bottom and there's surely no cure greater than this if he says so" poor boy isn't considering he possibility of Lilia tricking him again at all.
This puppy means good, even if he fails to show it as great as you might be expecting him to. In fact he is just following all that he's told to, meanwhile he's pretty inexperienced and new to it. You may find it a bit unfair but, consider that he would've never gone out of his way to take care of you for plenty of hours everyday if it wasn't for you (Or Malleus-) seeing you sad on its own gives him wet puppy vibes let alone having you sick . He may act like a coward but, it's all because of how much you mean to him.

Which of your ocs would go to therapy for or with their darling? How much effort would they actually put into it?
Tumblr media
This is like tricking your dog into going to the vet.. y'all are evil
This story contains: them talking about their dark past, incest(twins), talk of sex
Tumblr media
Theodore
Absolutely not.
He's a doctor so he would argue that he would know his own body pretty well
"i don't need therapy sweetie, I'm mentally healthy"
This is the same man who flinches at the sight of a butcher knife and has so much mental trauma he still gets scared touching you
If you beg he'll do it though..of course he'll be passive aggressive but he'll go.
Tries to out logic the damn therapist
"so theodore, describe your childhood"
Theodore pushed his glasses up and clears his throat, this was definitely not going to be good. "I'm well aware that a person's childhood shapes their mental state but I assure you this is a waste of time."
"theo, let them help y-" you shuddered at the sharp glance theodore gave you. You've never seen him so aggressive before but it was clear he wasnt having fun. He hated the thought of someone analyzing his every movements and play with his head since it's something he does to you so having it done to him is less fun. "I assure you, I'm mentally sound..nothing is wrong with me"
"alright well, how about we talk about your childhood anyways just chatting nothing serious?"
Theodore scowled before glancing your way, you were doing this cause you loved him..so he should go along with this right?
Hikaru
You have to trick him
You brought it up once and he lashed out at you so badly he actually hurt you pretty bad
You told him you wanted to shopping but when he saw you two were infront of a building that definitely wasn't a mall he was PISSED
He was about two seconds away from hitting you but he saw how much you wanted to help him so he gave it a shock
Aggressive as all hell
He couldn't believe he was here, a group therapy session for victims of sexual abuse. The male sat there in his expensive clothes with his diamond encrusted shades on a scowl on his face.
"so, would you like to introduce yourself and tell us why you're here?" You flinched lightly at the single question the therapist asked before glancing at hikaru who in his legs and pushed his shades up his blue eyes flickering with rage.
"I'm here cause my bitch of a soulmate decided to drag me here instead of a shopping trip like they promised, I could be at home getting my dick sucked but no in here surrounded by idiots" hikaru was definitely in a fiery mood.
"well hikaru, y/n brought you here bec-"
Hikaru huffed in anger cutting the doctor off his anger being never ending. "they brought me here cause they think they are so smart. Their job is to please me in anyway I see fit, in return I spoil them once in a while and I am NOT pleased." With that Hikaru got up before shooting you a dirty look.
"you have ten minutes to meet me in the car or you're walking home" he snapped before walking out the room. You apologized for hikaru before going to join him.
Axis
The first one willing to go
He thinks it will make a great date
Tells his therapist EVERYTHING
Honestly he sounds so chipper about it they look so worried for him
Like sir are you okay?!
Clams up when it comes to insecurities
Like nope.
He only goes once though cause in his eyes therapy is a going once event
"- then my brother salem poured bleach in my eyes! I know it was bad but I of course forgive him cause all siblings fight right? He's really great though! Like one time we were playing hide and seek and he couldn't find me for six hours haha!"
you nervously glanced at the horror stricken expression the therapist had, they were so shocked they werent even taking notes. "Your brother sounds extremely toxic and incredibly dangerous" they stated and axis paused with a light pout clearly offended.
"salem wouldn't hurt a fly!" He huffs out and you weren't sure this was helping too much..though you were glad he decided to go.
Salem
So his therapist had to see a therapist
The first three minutes he had to wear a muzzle cause he tried to eat his therapist and not in the fun way
He is so feral he just speaks in slurring words and barks
You have to put a collar and leash on him
He did leave with a mouth full of blood though cause he bit a huge chunk off his therapist.
"s-s-so, salem w-what do you think c-caused you to be this way?" The doctor spoke while standing on their desk as you tried to pull the leash hard to pull salem away. "Bad boy! Stop it!" You snapped out at salem who got his muzzle off and was attempting to devour the poor therapist. "I-im sorry he's usually much calmer than this, strangers make him hungry" you explained before seeing salem bite the therapist on the leg.
"salem! No! You don't bite people!" You scolded as you tried to pull the male off and once you did you decided it was time to go home now. "W-well thanks doctor this has been fun, let's go salem!" You dragged him away while shaking your head.
"y/nnnnnnn~"
"...yes salem?"
"I love you!"
You glanced at him seeing he was docile once more and you sighed "I love you too babe" you mumbled out not sure what to do.
Rin
His therapist quit.
He trolled them so hard they gave up
Spoke in meme quotes the whole time.
"rin, would you say you were a happy child?"
"yeet."
You face palmed at your boyfriend who was hellbent on annoying the therapist to death. This session has already been thirty minutes and while rin was holding back his laughter the doctor looked like they wanted to snap their clipboard.
"please rin, work with me here..."
Rin beckoned the therapist to come closer and when they leaned in feeling excited thay they made progress rin's eyes sparkled widely. "Big...chungus"
You and rin walked out the office after being kicked out since the therapist had an absolute mental breakdown. "You're an asshole.." you mumbled and rin wrapped an arm around your shoulder with a wicked grin. "I'm your asshole, babynow how about we dress you up then have clown sex? I say that's equal payment for this"
Yuki
He hated it
He was quiet the entire time
Like the entire time
He wouldn't answer a question or nothing
He legit fell asleep with his head in your lap and now sees therapy as a place to nap
He doesn't like strangers so there was no way in hell he's speaking to a stranger.
You sighed at the tense silence in the room as yuki buried his face into your stomach his head in your lap. The moment he got here he took a nap not really caring about the doctor or his questions..it's been this way for a full hour. Slowly yuki opened his eyes and sat up with a low hum, he leaned in to kiss you feeling really clingy until he heard the shuffling of another person.
yuki tensed up suddenly wrapping his arms around you his chin rested on your shoulder. "Y/n, home?" He questions with a grumpy pout. You ran your fingers through his hair with a loud sigh.
"yeah yuki, we can go home.."
prince
He sees himself too cool for that stuff
"I'm not going, therapy isn't my vision of a fun date. Foreplay and sex is a good date"
He doesn't like the idea of sitting in a room and talking about his feelings.
If you promise to let him finger you during the car ride he is totally In though
He doesn't take it seriously at all
Avoids all the questions
Ends up just boasting about his sex life for an hour
"y/n moaned louder that night than ever before, it was so fucking awesome" prince cheered out his eyes lit up. You were covering your face with your hands feeling nothing but embarrassment as prince went all and on.
"t-the question was what makes you happy" the doctor stated and prince gave a confused look. "Yeah, and I said sex I mean wasn't that clear?"
"prince could you perhaps be a nymphomaniac?"
"shit, maybe? If I don't bang at least twice a day I get all grumpy...speaking of bang on the car ride here it was fucking great y/n let me-" you covered his mouth not being able to handle anymore of this. "We'll be going now!" You snapped out now dragging prince away.
"you're sexy when embarrassed"
"shut the hell up"
Rocket
He is literally the least dangerous yandere
He thinks he's fine
But he goes and actually speaks about his life
Everything about his life seems so cheerful and good...until..it isnt
Like axis he speaks as if it's okay
He's a dumbass so therapy doesn't really help him
He just uses it as a way to spend time with you
"so what was your childhood like?"
"well, I grew up in a small village we owned a pretty big farm. My mother and father kinda liked to spoil me.."
You've never heard about his childhood so you were very engaged in this story..it sounded pretty nice. Rocket paused to think when suddenly his eyes lit up
"I ended up being chosen to be the village pet! It was such an honor!" He cheers out with a happy hum. Instantly you knew this wasn't going to be good but you let him explain.
"the village pet is like...hmm a handyman, they do basically anything the villagers don't wanna do it's hard work but it's good work." He explained
"what were some of the things you had to do?"
"well...solves disputes, help out on there people's farms, help procreate, honestly anything! Only way to leave the village as a pet is to choose a new pet. It was hard to pick someone..but I'm glad I did"
The room got very very silent...very fast.
Rocket gazed at the time before getting up. "Hey y/n we should go yeah? You promised we could go get ice cream if I do this with you"
Yuuji& yuuta
Lord...these two got so much fucking baggage
They go, but they see it as entertainment
A fun little joke
Until it's not
The therapist manages to make them fight
And that NEVER happens
Like never.
It gets super damn intense
You're over there like "damn okay."
You watched the two boys argue clearly upset with each other. The question was that if yuuta found yuuji attractive..and yuuta hesitated.
"so you don't think I'm cute or anything?"
"I never said that! I just think, you're not my type."
"how the hell could I be not your type?! I know exactly what you like and don't like! I please you all the damn time!"
You cleared your throat awkwardly, not sure if going to couples therapy was a good idea anymore.
"I'm just saying! You sometimes..don't hit it quite right I mean..it's fine everyone has their ups and downs"
"OH so I'm bad at sex now?! You're such a liar cause on the drive here you were screaming like a little whore!"
"anyone can fucking scream yuuji! Doesn't take damn rocket science! Y'know I'm starting to see why ushio fucking hates you! You think you're so damn high and mighty! This is why we can't have normal relationships with our siblings!"
The room got silent as the two panted softly the screaming working them up and yuuji turned his head away eyes glimmering with tears. You honestly..felt like you were watching a drama show and was totally into it. "I-i didn't mean that- I'm sorry I just-"yuuta mumbled out and yuuji sniffled.
"do you..hate me?"
"wha-"
"ever since we came out when we were younger, you've been trying to be such a tough guy..you don't even say you love me as much. So, do you hate me?" Yuuji explained and you watched as the two hugged.
"of course not! I-i just didn't want anyone to still see me as that girl who was scared of her own shadow" yuuta whimpers out and yuuji smiled at him "you're not her, you're a strong guy.. our strong guy and we love you so much me and y/n" yuuji whispers out planting a kiss on the boy's cheek.
As the three of you left you suddenly felt an arm link with yours on either side. "Enjoy the show dollface?" Yuuta chimed before yuuji giggled "it was very fun!"
"you two were faking it?!" You huffed out seeing them both nod. They were totally lying but they didn't want you to know that, after all they were twins..fighting was basically illegal to them.
Scarlett
Another person who isn't happy with therapy
Straight out refuses
Like nope.
Never.
It takes A LOT of convincing til she agrees
Another member of the "has a bad childhood but sees it as normal" group
Hers is downright horrifying
But she giggles it off
"my childhood? Hmm..well my father was a doctor, I was his little nurse" she said softly in thought and you immediately didn't like this.
"he taught me all about plants, poisons and human biology. He was studying human mutations he wanted to know if it was possible to have humans evolve animal like traits, by replacing their body parts for animal ones of course" she cheers out and interlaced her fingers together.
"such an interesting study, some of them works in some ways..though it seems the human body can't handle some things..we are such fragile creatures are we not?"
Scarlett had this creepy dangerous vibe about her and the session was instantly cut short due to your therapist feeling unsafe. As you two walked out you couldn't help but gaze her way.
"who were his victims?" You asked out softly before feeling her hold your hand with a smile. "Well, children from my school. Then..me" she stated softly causing the haira on the back of your neck to stand.
"what animal part did he give you? Did it work?"
"it worked.."
That was all she stated and you didn't hear anything about it ever again so you were left to wonder about it.

Episode 4- Meeting Karens pt. 2
Chapter 1 / Chapter 2 / Chapter 3 / Chapter 4
         ~Hato, Zen, And Satori~ 
           Zen looks at one of the many figures of heroes. "Ugh��They don't even have any Red Riot.." she says, crossing her arms. 
           "Aww, mad they don't have your favorite hero." Says Satori jokingly. 
           "Satori, I will punch you in the face," says Zen. Satori smirks. "Come at me, pretty girl." She Says. 
           Zen smirks. "Oh, Hunny, if I did, I think you'd be on the other side of the mall." 
           Hato sighs. "Girls, can we please not yeet each other? Like a normal family?"
           Zen and Satori look at him. "Boi, have we ever been a normal family?" they ask him. Hato shuts up and rethinks.
           "Exactly." 
           A black-haired person walks next to Zen. Zen turns and gasps. "EEEE HANAO!" she shouts. 
           Hanao jumps and looks at her with shock in his green eyes. "Z-Zen?" asks Hanao.
           "Boi, who else? Hug. Now." Says Zen hugging him. Hanao smiles and hugs back, "it's been a while, hasn't it…"
           Satori and Hato look at the duo. Satori blinks. "Are you two dating? If so, I'm so telling Yin." She says. 
           Zen pulls away from Hanao and smacks the back of Satori's head. "No. He's the kind I'd always play within the daycare. Remember Hato?" she asks her twin. 
           "Oh, the flower guy, right?" asks Hato as he walks up to Hanao.
           Hanao blushes and looks away. "N-Nice to see you again…" he stutters out. He looks to Satori, "N-Nice meeting you, I'm Mochizuki Hanao…" introduces Hanao as he has something in his arm.
           "I'm Takami Satori. Nice to meet you. Also, how in the fucken-Zen's brash and aggressive, and Your soft-spoken and meek! How did you two become friends?"
            "I…really don't know…" answers Hanao. Zen looks and notices a Red Riot figure in Hanao's arms. 
           "bOI, WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?!" asks Zen as she looks at the figure. Hanao jumps. "I-in the back of the store…this was the last one," he answers. Zen sulks in the corner "curse you, fans…" she mumbles as three lines dropped from her head. 
           Hanao, Hato, and Satori sweat drop staring at Zen. "Aren't you a fan of his, too?" they ask. 
           Hanao places the figure box next to Zen. "Here. You're more a fan than me." Says Hanao. Zen's eyes became watery, and she begins to literally cry waterfalls as she hugs the figure box. "HANAO, YOUR TOO SWEET TO MEE!!!" she shouts. 
           Literal waterfall hits Hanao as he smiles. "Alright, Alright, you're welcome…" says Hanao.
           Then a man took the box from Zen. "Girls shouldn't have figures! They're for men," says the man. The trio's mouths drop and turn white as Zen slowly turns to the man. A murderous glint in her teal eyes. "I'm sorry what?" she asks. 
           Satori and Hanao hide behind Hato. Hato looks at them. "HOLD UP- WHY ME?!" he asks.
           "You're the only person she won't unintentionally hurt. Twin powers." Answers Satori. 
           "THAT'S NOT HOW TWINS WORK!!" 
           The man looks at Zen. "In fact, women shouldn't be in this store. This store has an aisle for men with sexual wants for their women and figures for themselves," He says, then he smirks. "For a woman with your curvy body must look good. I think I'm taking you home," he says
           Satori and Hanao hear glass break. Hanao sweat drops. "And that's the sound of broken mental health and big brother instincts." 
           The man looks at Zen with hungry eyes. "I bet you good in bed…a slut like you must be." 
           Hanao hears more glass breaking ". . . Welp this guy is dead." He says, turning from the scene. 
           "Like that red-eyed blonde, I tried to fuck. He was pretty," adds the man. Hanao slowly turns, "Oh, this bitch dead." He says, growing roses and thorns. 
           ~Later~
           The group leaves the currently bloodied store. 
           "man, the cashier, and manager sure were nice in giving us free shit," says Zen as he unboxes the Red Riot Figure. 
           "True, Should we tell our siblings about what we did??" asks Satori.
           "Leave me out of it…I rather not want more teasing from everyone just to snap into my big brother's senses." Says Hato as he flipped the bag.
           "I think we killed him." Says Hanao as he unboxes a Dynamite figure. "Oh damn, this is his winter outfit." Adds Hanao.
           "Where to next?" asks Satori looking at the group. 
           "Starbucks??" asks Zen.
           Hato and Hanao shrug. "Sure, why not?" says Hato. 
           ~Heisu, Riku, and surprise~
           By Riku's request, they went to one of the many bookstores. The two were in the mystery aisle. 
           Heisu pulls out a random book "Hey Riku, how is this author 'Sho'?" 
           Riku leans over. "Sho? Oh, his books are amazing. Mostly focused on drama, crime, and mystery." 
           "Cool. Sho. Wait a minute, isn't Sai's full name Saisho?" 
           Riku processes, "We need to ask him this." 
           "I'll wave this book in his face and see what he says." 
           Riku looks to the side. "How about we don't do that…"
           Heisu smiles. "Would it kill you to smile a bit?"
           "I'm not obliged too…some of us don't have dad's cheery outlook Hei…" says Riku, Heisu sweat drops, "but both our dads keep a good mask on" 
           A child walks up to the brothers looking at the book in Heisu's hand. "I wanna read that one!!" says the child.
           Riku and Heisu jump back, scared. "A CHILD" shouts Heisu hiding behind his little brother. Riku looks at him "… What's with you and not liking kids??" asks Riku. Heisu looks at him. "Children are demons.".
           The child walks up to Riku. "I wanna read that one!" he says. The boys both look at Sho's book in Heisu's hand. 
           "I-I don't think that's appropriate for your age…" stutters Riku looking at the child. The child growls, "Give it to me!". 
           Heisu and Riku whimper and shake their heads. The mother walks to her child and looks at the boys. "Why didn't you give my kid the book?!" says the woman. 
           Riku, at this point, hides behind Heisu, who's holding the book to his chest. "I-It's not appropriate for your kid…" answers Heisu. 
           "SO?! THE AUTHOR IS HER FATHER!! WHY WON'T YOU LET HER HAVE SOMETHING OF HER DEAD FATHER'S?!" shouts the Karen, Heisu, and Riku whimper more. 
           "Th-the author would've stopped making books if they were dead! Th-this is their most recent one!!" says Riku as he uses his wings to hide himself and Heisu. 
           "W-WELL, THEY DITCHED US. NOW GIVE IT HERE!! AND GET RID OF THAT RIDICULOUS  COSPLAY!" shouts Karen. Grabbing and pulling on Riku's wing. Riku winces, and Heisu tries to get the woman off his little brother and tries not to give the kid the book. 
           Steps were heard from behind as she kept pulling. A yellowed-eyed light auburn-haired male walking through the mystery aisle. Pulling books out from the selves and a repeating "boring." As he pulls and throws books into selves or the ground. Pulling two books out, "oh hey. I think they'll like these". Rereading the titles, he throws them on the ground. "Nope, never mind. They both have these Ones already." 
           The Karen looks behind her, finally losing her grip on Riku's wing. Noticing the male and gasps, "Hey! Don't do that kid that's bad!" she says. 
           The yellow-eyed male raise his eyebrow ". . .And I should fucken care because. . .?" he asks. 
           "Did your parents teach you manners?" She demands.
           "pfft. No. I'm a problem child. My dad barely interacts with me. My 2nd dad, though, interacts. I'm basically a disappointment," Says the male freely. 
           Riku looks at the male recognizes him as his boyfriend, Chisaki Meiro. The woman gasps. "HOW WERE YOU BORN WITH TWO FATHERS?!" she shouts.
           "Fucken magic. Now leave ya bitch and demon spawn." Says Meiro. The woman gasps. Grabbing her child's hand, they quickly left the aisle. 
           Meiro sighs. "Stupid-" he cuts himself off as he sees Riku and Heisu. He immediately runs up to Riku. "Riku!~ I didn't even know you'd be here!" he says, hugging Riku.
           Riku blushes. "Hey Meiro…" he says. Heisu blinks and stares at them. 
           "Uh…huh, Who?" Says Heisu, Meiro looks to him, "Who are you? Why are you with Riku?".
           Heisu looks down. "I-I'm…Heisu… Riku's brother…" He says softly. 
           Meiro looks to Riku. "How many siblings do you have??" 
           "Seven…Zen and Heisu were in America for their middle school and high school life plus the beginning of college for Zen because they were learning English." Explains Riku.
           Meiro blinks. "Zen? Like the fashion Designer? Her clothes are inspired by underground punkish (My cousin and one of my closest friends love to create clothes like these. He's fine with me using his designs in my stories) types," says Meiro.
           "Oh, yup, that's her…" says Heisu as he laughs nervously. 
           Meiro snaps his head to Riku. "Ok. A model brother and a fashion designer sister? Boi. What else?" he says. 
           Riku shrugs and looks on the ground. "We should pick those up…" Pointing to the books. 
           Meiro blinks. "No the fuck we ain't," he says. Heisu sweat drops and looks at Riku, giving him a look. 'What in the world do you see in him?' 
           Riku looks back. 'He's funny sometimes! Plus, he actually likes me…'. Heisu sighs. Why am I even asking? Zen is with a Triad boss! He thinks. 
           Riku uses his feathers to put the fallen books away "why are you even here, Meiro?" 
           "Looking for gifts for my half brothers. It's the new year soon, which comes their birthday." 
           "When is their birthday day?" asks Heisu
           "The 13th of January." Says Meiro looking towards him, "They're turning 24 this year, I believe." Says Meiro. 
           Riku looks at him "they're? So you have more than one?" asks Riku.
           "Twins. Both are smart. I don't really know what to get them." 
             Heisu blinks. "Why not a fancy chessboard?" he asks. 
             "but they can get expensive…" explains Meiro. 
             "We can help pay, you know…" says Riku. Meiro smiles. "Oh hell, Yea!!" he says. 
             Heisu sweatdrops. "Your too Nice, Ri." 
             ~Haruki~
             Oh, the child made them run. Remember the kid from the first part of Sai's encounter? I don't think Zen should hang around him anymore….
             In GameStop, Haruki was excitedly looking through the games. Grabbing one he found interesting, he squeals adorably. Then a child grabs it from him. "Cool!~ I was looking for this!" Says the kid. 
             Haruki pouts, "Hey! Give it back! I found it first." 
             The kid sticks his tongue out. "Uh uh! I did!" he says. 
             What would Hato do? Oh! I know he'd ask for it back! Thinks Haruki, then a mini Zen with horns and a flame trident appeared on his right shoulder. 
             "Hmm, Nah. Threaten him." Says the devil Zen.
             Then a mini hato with a halo appeared on his left shoulder. "No! Ask for it back!" Says the angel Hato. 
             Devil Zen glares at him. "No! Cause that's boring! Fight for it!" 
             Angel Hato growls at her and attacks her, "ASK FOR IT." "THREATEN." "ASK." "THREATEN" "ASK."
             Haruki holds his head as swirls appear in his eyes. The kid begins going to the cashier. Haruki panics and runs over to the kid. 
             "Hey! Wait! Asshole!" says Haruki. The angel Hato and devil Zen stop fighting and gasp. 
             The kid turns to him. "What? Too bad! It's mine!" says the kid. 
             "Bitch! I found it fucking before you! Hell, I've played all the games before that one! What the fuck do you know about it?!" 
             "Uh. It's about a lame swordsman trying to protect a damn shield." 
             Haruki gasps, "NOT ONLY ARE YOU FUCKEN WRONG. THAT'S NOT EVEN THE RIGHT GAME!" 
             The kid looks away in embarrassment. 
             "Now if you don't fucken mind. May I have the game before I get someone to slaughter your entire family. Making you wish you were never born." Says Haruki with a smile. 
             The kid hands him the game and runs out crying. Angel Hato and Devil Zen have their mouths open "Where in the world…." Says Devil Zen. The angel and demon puff.
             Haruki innocently smiles and pays for the game. Skipping out to where Sai was. Who was talking with a green hair male and a blonde with purple and green streaks in their hair. The two-wave the blonde bye and left. 
             "HEEEEEYYY HARUKI!!" Sai shouts out of character.
             Haruki skips over. "Hello!~ who's that?" he asks. 
             "This is my lover. Kaoru. Kaoru meet Haruki…" introduces Sai.
             Kaoru smiles. "Nice to meet-HEY DON'T CHANGE THE SUBJECT SAI!" they shout, looking to Sai, whistling, looking anywhere but at Kaoru. Haruki tilts his head in confusion.
             Haruki, Sai, and Kaoru walk from the game stop to the next shop talking. 
             ~Later~ 
             The whole family decided to ride in the car. It was very squished in the back. 
             Sai was driving, Kouten was in the passenger seat with his new puppy. In the Second row were Hato, Zen, and Satori.  In the third row was Riku, Heisu, and Haruki.
             Sai looks at Kouten. "What in the…did you get a puppy?" asks Sai blinking at his brother. Kouten sweatdrops. "Kind of? A friend adopted her for me…" answers Kouten. 
             Zen perks up from her seat. "HOLD UP. YOU HAVE FRIENDS?!" asks/shouts Zen.
             A tick appears on his head. "I have more than you. You just have Hato, Satori, me, any of our siblings, and what's his name…Yin. Who I still disapprove of." Says Kouten.
             A tick appears on Zen's head. "You aren't the boss of me bitch." Says Zen. Hato sweat drops "Language Zen." He says. 
             Zen grumbles and glares at him. Satori perks up and looks at the puppy. "Aww, what's her name??" asks Satori. 
             "Her name is Zodiac," answers Kouten looking at the puppy. Zodiac barks and pants, Satori rolls her eyes. "That's boring. Should've named her Princess Mononoke or Princess kicky bity your ass," says Satori. 
             Riku from the back "Why not name her Crow?" he says quietly. 
             Heisu looks at Riku "that's nice, Though I just like Princess…" 
             Haruki looks up from his switch "OOO! WHAT ABOUT BUTTERFLY!" he shouts, Heisu sweatdrops. "Should we tell him that papillon means butterfly?" asks Heisu to Riku, who shakes his head.
             "How about Mrs. Bitch." Says Zen with a snicker, Sai holds a snicker in. Hato hits Zen with his wing. "No. She's Kouten's pupper, so he can name her what he wants. Why are you obsessed with the word bitch anyways?" 
             Kouten smiles. "Thank you, pigeon.". Hato waves him off with a smile.
             Sai remembers something "Oh, before I forget, I booked resort rooms for us."
             His younger siblings look at him. "You did what now??" asks Kouten. 
             "Resort rooms. The resort has a waterpark, spa, restaurants, cafes, ballroom where a party is being held. Which we have to attend, being Hawks' kids have down parts. Around the area are tourist attractions. The resort has a fitness area, rides, bars, and more." Explains Sai, his younger siblings' mouths drop shocked. 
             "THE HECK DO YOU DO FOR A GOD DANG LIVING SAI?!" shouts his siblings as they check their phones for their accounts to see no money missing from their accounts. 
             Sai sighs, "I didn't steal your money." sighs of relief echoed throughout the car. Sai "But I did check your browsing histories." He says. His siblings stare at him, Sai blinks. "What? I only looked through Satori's, Haruki's, Riku's, and Heisu's," says Sai. 
             Sai then rolls his eyes. "I already know what the elders have. Plus, it was too well locked.". Hato, Zen, and Kouten laugh nervously. 
             "So, when are we heading to the resort??" asks Heisu from the back
             "About…
            Two months from
            Now"

all the fandom questions for DMC
OH THAT’S NEARLY ALL OF EM LMAO THIS IS GONNA BE A DOOZY
“What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?”
ok so i know a pretty good portion of the dmc fandom is SUPER on board with nero x kyrie but like??? they’re basically adopted siblings??? and i HATE the adopted sibling romance trope so in my personal dmc canon nero and kyrie do love each other but Only As Siblings
“Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?”
again, nero x kyrie! the way i see it, nero sees kyrie as his sister and kyrie sees nero as her brother because nero grew up with her in an environment that would lend to their relationship being more like that of siblings
“Have you ever unfollowed someone over a fandom opinion?”
uuuuhhh yes?? kind of??? they were someone who shipped nero x v, which is a ship im not overly comfortable with myself but that’s all i’ll say on that
“Do you have a NoTP in your fandom? Are they a popular OTP?”
uuuuuuhhhhhh???? i’ve seen a decent amount of fanart of vergil x dante like. come ON they’re BROTHERS stop making them KISS
“Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?”
uh? not that i can recall? i used to be on board with nero x kyrie myself but then i remembered that in kyrie’s character description in dmc4 it says her relationship with nero is that of a “brother, friend, and lover all in one” and that’s the fault of capcom themselves for describing the relationship that way, not necessarily the fandom’s fault
“Most disliked character(s)? Why?”
none i like all of them they’re all amazing
except arkham. absolute garbage dad in dmc3, lady deserved a better father than him
“Most disliked arc? Why?”
hm. im not really sure? i think all of the main characters have pretty decent arcs tbh
“Is there an unpopular character you like that the fandom doesn’t? Why?”
are there any unpopular characters in the dmc fandom??? i have no idea. i’ve seen a little bit of hate for nero (mostly in youtube comments) but idk if that counts. if it does, fuck those people nero’s baby and i adore him
“Is there an unpopular arc that you like that the fandom doesn’t? Why?”
again, i don’t think so? i don’t really get too into the discourse in the dmc fandom so i don’t have a full grasp over what’s popular and what’s not. though, i do recall seeing a bit of stuff about how people don’t like that v seems to have just been a one-off character and how they wish he could’ve been a completely separate character from vergil, but, as short as it was, i enjoyed v’s arc! i think, in the time that vergil’s human and demon halves were separated, v was able to grow a little and also sort of begin to start healing from his trauma when vergil wouldn’t let himself deal with it properly, and since v realized how important everything he threw away really was, i think vergil retained that when he became whole again and i think it’s really cool!!!
“Unpopular opinion about XXX character?’
SLAMS MY HANDS DOWN. LADY AND TRISH ARE BADASS QUEENS AND I AM LITERALLY SO MAD THAT THEY’RE ONLY IN DMC5 TO BE SEXY. THE ONLY THING THEY DID THAT IMPACTED THE PLOT EVEN A LITTLE WAS UNWILLFULLY BE SERVANTS OF URIZEN AND WHEN THEY WERE PULLED OUT OF THE DEMON BODIES URIZEN TRAPPED THEM IN THEY WERE NAKED AND A POINT WAS MADE OF SHOWING OFF THEIR BODIES AT LEAST A LITTLE AND I THINK THEIR POTENTIAL WAS WASTED 
“Unpopular opinion about your fandom?”
why do so many people in this fandom seem to ship spardacest of any degree. why. can i just go through the dmc5 tag without seeing vergil smooching his son or vergil smooching his brother or v smooching nero or-
“Unpopular opinion about the manga/show?”
nothing the dmc anime is perfect in every single way
“If you could change anything in the show, what would you change?”
nothing the dmc anime is perfect in every single w-
“Instead of XYZ happening, I would have made ABC happen…”
ok there are very few moments in the game i would replace with something new entirely, but i would add nero calling urizen a whore at least once like just imagine nero gets yeeted into a wall by urizen and he just goes “ow...whore” like that’d be so fucking funny
“Does not shipping something ‘popular’ mean you’re in denial and/or biased?”
absolutely fuckin not my dude sometimes you’re just not on board with the most popular ships in the fandom and that’s totally okay! as long as ur not shipping incest or any kind of abusive dynamic i literally dont care if you don’t ship the popular ships
“What is the one thing you hate most about your fandom?”
*inhales deeply* spardacest
“What is the purest ship in the fandom?”
ok i’ve seen literally NO ONE ELSE who ships these but lady x trish and nero x nico. lady and trish are lesbians that are dating each other and my proof is that episode of the anime where lady and trish don’t know each other so they’re fighting because trish is a demon and lady’s someone who hunts demons and trish was just trying to Not Die so they fight for the whole episode but then they find out that they’re each a friend of dante’s so they go and buy a bunch of expensive clothes together and send the bill to dante and that was their first date and now they’re girlfriends and idk man nero and nico just have a fun dynamic that made me go “they’re totally dating each other”
“What are your thoughts on crack ships?”
ok so like, in general, crack ships are fun as hell just for some shits and giggles but i haven’t really seen any crack ships in the dmc fandom??? though i think there’s plenty of potential there for a few of those and im interested to see if the fandom will come up with any crack ships!!
“Popular character you hate?”
none i absolutely adore all of them
“Unpopular character you love?”
are there any unpopular characters in this fandom? are there??? though i guess if i wanna go back to what i said about seeing a little bit of nero hate (again, mainly in youtube comments), i absolutely LOVE nero and to those people who say he doesn’t have a lot of character: yes he DOES you’re just not LOOKING HARD ENOUGH
“Would you recommend XXX to a friend? Why or why not?”
OH YES ABSOLUTELY, bro even though i certainly have my gripes about the dmc franchise, it’s SUCH a good series in spite of all that! the combat system is pretty neat (and only gets better in the later games), the music is absolutely bangin, there’s so many fun, iconic characters, the story is, for the most part, incredibly engaging and compelling, and honestly pretty much the whole series is just a family squabble but if everyone in the family was superpowered by having demonic heritage and OH YEAH THEY HAVE SWORDS
“How would you end XXX/Would you change the ending of XXX?”
i wouldn’t end the dmc series any differently than capcom did!! i really enjoy that dmc5 ended with dante and vergil finally settling their differences and ending their lifelong rivalry (after nero bitch slapped dante and beat the shit out of vergil), and it looks like dante and vergil’s story has come to a very satisfying end! i don’t see where else capcom can go with the twins, but if they do make more dmc games, i would absolutely love to follow more of nero’s adventures and see how he continues to grow, both as a person and a devil hunter!!! you hear me, capcom??? give me more content with my hyper wild boy or i’ll personally come kick your asses
“Most shippable character?”
hm. im gonna say dante, i think!! let the man have a boyfriend
yeah i said it dante’s gay whatcha gonna do about it
“Least shippable character?”
vergil. definitely vergil, but that’s only because i personally see him as aromantic! i think he certainly wants to be loved, yes, but less in a romantic sense and more in a familial sense, ya feel? i would love to see him interact with nero more and see how he navigates that relationship, because i think it would be really interesting to see how he takes to having a son of his own!! but that’s a discussion for another post entirely; i view vergil as aromantic so he’s not really looking for a romantic relationship with someone but that won’t stop (and hasn’t stopped) him from sleeping with people lmao
was that all of them? i think that may have been all the fandom related ones but please let me know if i missed any!! hoo boy it feels good to go off about this LMAO

TROS rambles under cut. Spoilers ahead.
There’s a lot I didn’t particularly like in TROS, but I expected that, so I’m mostly disappointed by the execution. It feels extremely messy, stuffed full of things supposed to please the audience but without that much thought given to the overall effect or the underlying message.
It’s small things like a cute new droid whose function in the narrative is to deliver one hint for the high-stakes treasure hunt, and also be cute and sell merch. At least the droid has a function; I’m still wondering why the giant slug on the Falcon at the beginning of the movie. Isn’t the cast big enough. Aren’t there enough new characters as is. Did we need the slug. I’m aware it sounds like nitpicking, it’s just that I feel it’s representative of the film making unnecessary detours for cool factor while moving at breakneck speed, which makes the whole story suffer.
But there’s other, bigger things. Leia’s training, her having a saber, even if she put it down – it was such a big deal that Luke was the Last Jedi, the only one who could train Rey, and although we’ve seen Leia use the Force, there was absolutely nothing in the previous two movies to let us think she’d trained under Luke. I feel the main reason Leia has a saber is simply the need to replace the one yeeted by Ben so that he’d have a weapon in the final fight, and having another family saber handed to Rey was yet another way to confirm Rey as the chosen heir of the Jedi and the Skywalkers, something TROS really tried to hammer in imo; Leia’s saber and training, the pep talk with Force Ghost Luke (who doesn’t have anything to say to his nephew), everything about how the Jedi live in her in the final fight, plus the voices of Anakin, Obi-Wan, etc (who, like Luke, don’t have anything to say to Kylo/Ben), and the Force Ghosts of Luke and Leia appearing to her at the end. They didn’t do that when their nephew and son died. I don’t really mind that Rey takes the Skywalker name, because I’m not big on the blood lineage fixation to start with, and the film doesn’t make her reasons explicit so I can find a way to make it work for me, but it’s the culmination of the pattern framing her as the one heir.
Even her ending up in Luke’s childhood home fits within it, but I have other issues with her ending up alone on Tatooine; mainly what the fuck am I supposed to do with it? Like if there was something about how she was, idk, starting a Jedi school AT LEAST that’d make sense for the story I think Abrams is trying to tell because right now… how are the Jedi not going to end if she’s basically in exile?? Wasn’t it such a big deal to see the Jedi continue? How did we end up pretty much back to square one, with the last of the Jedi self-exiled on an out-of-the-way planet for not-so-clear reasons? For that matter, how is Rey choosing exile in the grand tradition of Jedi who failed – Obi-Wan, Yoda, and later Luke – supposed to be read? We’re given no insight in what goes on in her head after Exegol; her reaction to Ben’s death I’m 100% certain is meant to be heartbreaking, and it’s filmed that way. But after that she’s just… it’s not clear *what* she is, because there’s some happiness on her part, yes, but it’s part of the over-the-top ROTJ-like happiness expressed by all the Resistance peeps at the end, like they’re all so glad the Empire, First and Final Order are gone that they’re high on it. But as far as characterization goes it’s hard to say whether Rey’s going through the motions, if she’s sad but content that at least Ben turned or smthg, or if she’s totally fine and dandy. There’s nothing about why she choses to go to Tatooine, why she chooses to use the Skywalker name, why she buries the sabers, or how the fuck she feels about anything. I don’t think everything in an ending needs to be made explicit and explained in details, but it all kinda feels like a cop-out.
Speaking of cop-outs, I could mention The Pit, but also... I know a lot of people wanted Finn to have the Force; I’ve always been on the fence, because I feared his having the Force would end up being the reason he defected, and I didn’t want that decision to boil down to the magic force field told him so. Well, he had A Feeling, which implies he’s Force sensitive at least? Him and a whole other bunch of ex-troopers? I don’t know what to make of this. I mean, sure, the FO indoctrinates kids, but apparently once the Force gives them A Feeling they just break out of it? But also, how much does the Force meddles in events, because it kind of feels like those Feelings are moving people to where they need to be for Plot to happen (Leia’s saber premonition doesn’t really help the thus it was written vibe).  
Neither Finn nor Poe had any personal arc to speak of; they don’t grow or learn or do shit beyond being Rey’s sidekicks on her speedrun to the big boss (literally it’s a treasure hunt to open the final dungeon and beat the big boss; that’s it that the plot). They do Cool Action Stuff, and once Leia dies become Generals in her stead, which has about zero impact on anything. Poe’s revealed to be a spice smuggler because I guess a real Star Wars trio™ needs an ex-spice smuggler, just like a real Star WarsTM needs training scenes and a family reveal and a planet-destroying weapon (not spherical this time woohoo) and some Palpatine sprinkled on top. The trio’s interactions were… Idk what’s going on there. Sure there’s lots of banter and one-liners, but it left me with the impression that the film tried to have something for every ship (minus, very glaringly, Finnrose) – Finn seems to be trying to declare something to Rey, which seems to piss off Poe, but it’s hard to say if it’s because Poe’s into Rey as well, or into Finn, who also seems to be into Poe, but less than into Rey. And then there’s almost no interaction between Finn and Rose, who’s side-lined for the whole fucking movie, but there’s Jannah, who has either shippy or sibling vibes with Finn, I have no idea honestly, and Zorii, because I guess every ex-spice smuggler needs a Leia analogue.
Speaking of Leia, I have more to be displeased about – her death was fucking underwhelming, and not given much impact. Having Kylo/Ben haunted by Han (Ghost? Memory? Hallucination?), while not something I dislike in itself – Han had his big moment in TFA, and here he completely overshadows Leia’s. She doesn’t even get to have actual dialogue with Kylo/Ben, and the yeeting his saber should have happened after Leia reached him imo; switching that would have given a lot more impact to her death. The dialogue with Han doesn’t even need to change, but if Leia had contacted Kylo/Ben after the “I know what I have to do” repeat, it’d have been a more effective scene (and again, Han already had his big moment in TFA). The aftermath wasn’t particularly well-done either; characters are sad she died, of course, but it’s like perfunctory five minutes sadness and then she’s barely mentioned again, and her body just lies there in the background of some scenes while people talk.
I’m running out of steam, so in conclusion –
TROS I think mostly fails because it takes no risks; it’s trying to have something in it for everyone, and goes about it messily, without that much care for the big picture, which is how it ends pretending to have a happy end when we’ve just seen the final act of three generations of Skywalker tragedy. It doesn’t commit to anything, excepted leaving room for fun trio adventures sequels, because if there’s one thing we know, it’s that self-exiled Jedi are always found by some bright-eyed tentative student, if not a call for help from old friends.

"I didn't think," you say softly. Your voice rasps, disused, against your throat and tongue, and you swallow to clear the rough edges away. "I didn't think my birth parents wanted me."
Asriel turns to look at you. His hands are still full of wildflowers, the braided crown half-done. Your statement had disrupted the stillness. The two of you had been sitting at the lake's edge, turning flowers into crowns, peaceful with your own thoughts. You've had a lot of companionable silences together this spring. It's rare that you have the will to speak these days.
"I--" You swallow. You don't quite know where this train of thought is coming from, nor where it leads. It just seems important for you to say. "I thought for a long time they, you know. The reason they abandoned me was because I was-- defective. And they didn't want me."
"When did you start thinking this?" His face is concerned. You're starting to see that anxiety that lurks under all his masks. It makes you sad that you didn't realize it before this year. He's crushing the flowers in his grip without even realizing it.
"The second time I was possessed. When I was ten." Your words are slow. Coming back hasn't been easy. You're cold all the time, even though you're wearing two sweaters right now, and sometimes that cold makes you ache so much you can't even move. You rarely speak to anyone other than your brother. You often stumble over small obstacles. Many days, your limbs feel too heavy to bear. Even braiding these flower crowns feels impossibly difficult to your clumsy hands.
Mom hasn't noticed the changes. She hasn't asked about the wagon either. You think the soul inside still emits some kind of distraction field, but you aren't sure. She certainly isn't the kind but strict mother you grew up with, anymore. The thought is painful.
"I remember."
"I thought, they'd seen what I was. How-- weird I am. That they left me cause I was dumb."
"That isn't true. You're not weird."
"I'm myself," you say, and you relish it. "But myself isn't a person people like. A weird person. Maybe not wrong. But strange."
"Maybe," he says. He's unwilling to concede entirely. "But I've never seen you that way."
"I know. That's not the point." 
You don't say he's the only one who never has. You especially don't point out that his self-image isn't great either. That's the move the Player would make, and you aren't the Player. Asriel's happier when his self-hate is kept in the dark, where even he can ignore it. You simply hope time will heal over his wounds.
"The point is," you say. "I thought it was my fault. I don't think that's true anymore."
He motions for you to go on. The flowers have fallen from his hands. A few stems tumble from his lap into the lake. The water folds around them.
"The Player made me tear Mom and Dad apart. Bully you. Do awful things." Saying that makes the pain in your chest worse. You tug down the sleeves of your outer sweater. "I don't think it would be unlikely for my birth parents to abandon me if their Players made them do it."
"You think they had Players?"
"Yeah. I don't know how many humans have them. Maybe all. Maybe just a few. But more than just me. I'm certain of it."
"You're certain."
You think of the few humans you've seen in your life and nod. "It's more of a gut feeling. But I don't doubt it. I trust all of my guts, except the one gut part I yeeted into the cage."
He cracks a smile. "I don't think the soul counts as a gut part."
"You didn't feel all the writhing, squirmy, wormy bits I plunged my hands past to get to it. It hurt enough to count."
"You have wormy bits in your body? I'm pretty sure that isn't normal."
"It's none of your business what is or isn't normal about my body. I might just eat worms in my spare time, and that's why my guts are so weird. Worm diet."
He pokes your side. You squirm. "Ah, yes. I can see you're metamorphosing into a worm now."
"You are what you eat," you smile.
"Exactly. And you, sib, are turning into a worm. It's horrible. We need to get you off the worm diet before you start burrowing underground. I can't stand the unpopularity a worm sibling would bring me."
You giggle. It's a rusty sound. "Hey. If I'm part worm--"
"I think you're at least three-quarters worm."
"Fine. If I'm three-quarters worm now, because I ate so many worms, would that make me a three-quarters cannibal, if I keep eating worms?"
He laughs. "Dunno. Three-quarters cannibal sounds like a band title, though."
"Like the ones you listened to in your emo days?"
"God, don't remind me."
You smile. You lean against his side. He's warm. The sound of his heartbeat is a little faster than yours. He's always run a little faster than you.
You watch the water. Your fingers begin slowly wrapping flowers together again. The silence is a blanket wrapping around you. You're safe.
"So," Asriel finally says. "You think they left you because they were made to do it."
"I don't know. But I don't blame myself. And I don't blame them. It's just a thing that happened. There's no point in me really thinking about it anymore. I can't reset it."
"I'm glad it happened. I'm glad I got to have you for a sibling."
"Even though Mom and Dad…?"
"Even though they divorced, yeah. I don't blame you for it. I'm just happy you're with me."
You have many things to say about the situation, most of them things he wouldn't want to hear. You let the silence wrap around you again. 
Finally, you reach up and set the completed daisy crown on his head. "There."
"Do I look pretty?"
"You look like a goat boy in a flower crown. I don't know whether or not that's what pretty is."
He smiles at you. "Thank you."
"You're welcome. We should go home soon. I'm hungry."
"You're always hungry."
"I'm always hungry," you agree. You get up and wrap your fingers around the handle of your wagon. The birdcage inside makes no motion this time. "Hungry for worms."
He laughs at you. "Fine, worm. Let's make you some spaghetti worms."
You make a slurping noise. "Delicious."
He laughs, knocking your shoulder as he rises. His hand envelops your free hand. You hold on. Neither of you say more on the familiar road home.
You're a little warmer. Not by much, not enough to be very significant. Your layers of sweaters still feel necessary. But under the clothing, under the fabric, under the skin and sinew and bone that make your body what it is, your heart is beating more certainly. You aren't quite so cold anymore. It's nice, nice enough that you close your eyes to take it in. Nothing feels more real than your brother's hand guiding you home.
You'd like to stay like this, just a little longer.

The Good, the Bad, and the IDK How To Feel About That of: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016) (Part 2)
(Continuing from where we left off)
Good: THE ENTIRE BIT WITH CASEY V. SPLINTER! How you see Raph and Mikey look at each other with mischief in their eyes before trying to look serious, how Leo laughs for just a moment before trying to be the serious leader again and trying to get them to stop, and then how they all just look on in amusement when Casey charges Splinter, it’s all wonderful! Plus with Splinter’s “giant rat one, new guy zero” YOU KNOW he heard them and played along. I love it all.
Bad: Casey only ever saw the truck from the front, so how would he recognize the Tartaruga Brothers logo?
Good: Just give me an entire movie of Donnie doing science stuff, it’s all I need in life.
Good: Leo’s head shake and smile when Donnie’s rambling about science stuff (I’m ignoring the initial eye roll)
Good: AUGH, HOW DONNIE INSTANTLY STOPS BEING EXCITED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF BECOMING HUMAN, COMING UP WITH REASONS WHY WHAT LEO’S SAYING MAKES SENSE, IT HURTS MY HEART SO GOOD JOB MESSING WITH MY EMOTIONS
Good: Leo’s sword training is AWESOME (I’m jealous, high-key jealous)
IDK: You guys haven’t finished that Christmas album yet? It’s been a year, lol
Good: I really like how instead of just charging in, yelling about how Leo didn’t tell them about the ooze, Raph leads up to it, talking about honor which he knows is important to all of them.
Good: THE LOOK ON RAPH’S FACE, LOOKING AT LEO LIKE “Did you really think we wouldn’t find out”
Good: YOU CAN SEE THE EXACT MOMENT LEO REALIZED WHAT RAPH IS TALKING ABOUT AND IT JUST SCREAMS “oh shit” THIS BOY KNOWS HE DONE MESSED UP
Bad: You tell people about this stuff Leo
Bad: You did not consult with Donnie, you told him what to do
Bad: “There’s only one vote that counts in this family, mine.” LEO NO
Good: Donnie nerding out about the museum, same
Good: Donnie rambling on about science, his mind whirling at a mile a minute while he figures out what’s going on, freaking heck they did so well with Donnie in this movie
Good: Knowing that portals work both ways (it’s like Hawkeye from Avengers all over again)
Good: April knowing something is up with Raph and Mikey doing stuff without Leo and Donnie, but rolling with it
** “Who you calling chicken, turtle?” Oooooh, sick comeback Jones (not)
Good: I feel like all the comments about Casey not being buff or anything is them joking about Amell’s role in Arrow, because at this point the shows been going on for like…4 years, and he’s freaking jacked in that show, plus I’ve seen this guy run through an American Ninja Warrior obstacle course like it’s nothing. If this is them making jabs at that, then that’s hilarious.
Good: I love Raph and Mikey trying to get through police headquarters by themselves, like A for effort you guys, you’re doing so well.
Good: ‘Heroes in a half-shell’ jingle again and Donnie sounding happy that Mikey’s calling him and then instantly going into big brother mode and telling Mikey that they’re on their way.
IDK: THEY’RE NOT MONSTERS AND I KNOW THIS IS JUST HAMMERING HOME THE WHOLE ‘they wouldn’t be accepted’ THING WHICH IS WHY I’M NOT MARKING THIS AS BAD BUT HOLY FREAKING HECK AM I PISSED AT THAT COP!!!
Good: Mikey’s soft “we’re not monsters” SOMEONE GIVE THIS RAY OF SUNSHINE A HUG, HE DOESN’T DESERVE THIS
IDK: I really don’t know how to feel about Leo’s reaction to Mikey feeling hurt by what the cop said. I really don’t.
Good: Mikey sounding genuinely happy for Bebop and Rocksteady “achieving the power of flight”, lol, pure bean.
IDK: Is Raph only afraid of jumping because of the lack of things to grab on to or something, he jumps around New York and off of buildings no problem.
Good: DONNIE JUST CASUALLY WALKING OUT OF THE PLANE
Good: All of their reactions to Donnie just jumping, lol
Good: “Prepare for the ouch!” AND THEN THEY ACTUALLY SAY OUCH WHEN THEY HIT THE PLANE, LOL XD
Good: Mikey’s reaction to seeing a giant warthog and rhinoceros that he knows they’re going to have to fight is just the single “HEH” awkward laugh, I love it
Good: Donnie just holding onto the part of the Arc Capacitor and telling everyone who’s fighting around him to watch it, lol
Good: IF YOU LOOK IN THE BACKGROUND AFTER ROCKSTEADY FIRES THE TANK, YOU CAN SEE LEO JUST GIVING HIM THIS LOOK AND THEN HE JUST RAISES HIS ARMS LIKE “are you serious right now”
Good: Donnie’s “I’m doing awesome”, yeets the control stick away, lol
**Bebop, don’t tell me you’re thinking you can outswim a turtle, please
Bad: I hate how much wire was used to run the camera feed to the box, it’s so inefficient and an absolute waste of wire.
Good: Once again ‘heroes in a half-shell’ jingle being used because the job was successful, I love how much Donnie uses this little ring tone for things.
Good: I hate conflict but it’s very well done right here and I just want them to stop fighting, so bravo making me feel emotions again.
Good: Donnie instantly jumping to Mikey’s defense with a “how could you!”
Good: The Chief just says “well-played” in response to Casey having picked her pocket to steal her phone, big mood
IDK: I want to know how Donnie hacked the Technodrome, like is it just one giant Wi-Fi hotspot, how did he even connect to it?
IDK: How does he know the atmosphere is toxic, just give me a little explanation, please
**I want to know how that ooze works, full injection causes full permanent mutation, drops of slightly re-engineered version causes very temporary changes lasting only a few seconds, and apparently one sip changes external appearance but not internal systems. Does it have to physically enter the body via injection or ingestion in order to make permanent changes? (assuming it would permanently change their appearance, that could also be temporary, but if it was then wouldn’t Donnie say that?) Why would it start externally and work inwards when it would first make contact with internal systems? (so many questions, I just want to know how it works, I love science stuff)
IDK: And Raph just made the decision for everyone without asking…just like Leo did
Bad: PUT DOWN THOSE GUNS I SWEAR
Bad: EVEN AFTER SHE SAYS TO HOLD THEIR FIRE THERE’S STILL COPS POINTING THEIR GUNS, STOP IT
Good: I LOVE THEIR LITTLE TEAM UP THING ACKNOWLEDING EACH OF THEIR DIFFERENCES!
**A footnote in the history of the Foot clan, ba-dum tss
Good: “When something bad happens, you want to be with the turtles!” Lol, Vern’s got it figured out
Bad: Why is Shredder surprised about being betrayed by Krang when he just betrayed Stockman?
Good: I’m pretty sure in the area where Krang puts Shredder, you can see a Triceraton and I love the reference.
Good: I love Casey’s “well do you wanna switch?”, he sounds so done
Good: “chewed up piece of gum with a face” is the best description of Krang that I’ve ever heard
Bad: The way Vern jumps down on that Foot ninja, like come on, the dude saw him and still didn’t do anything!
Good: “He is literally re-arming” Lol, very true
Good: Excellent use of momentum when Leo nearly gets thrown off the Technodrome and just swings back around, I love it
Good: When Donnie finds the beacon, just slowly realizing that it’s way out of reach, lol
**I’m so sorry, more science rambling: Would removing the beacon from its spot instantly start messing with the construction of the Technodrome, like are each of the pieces set to assemble in a certain order at certain distances from the beacon, meaning that once assembly has begun and the beacon gets moved, the pieces would suddenly try to readjust? Or is it a more general signal and the pieces know where they’re supposed to connect with room for error, which is why the signal needs to be outside the Technodrome in order for assembly to stop? (I just want to know how it works 😭)
Good: I LOVE how instantly they’re all each going after Krang the moment he has Mikey, saying how nobody messes with Mikey, and I swear, there’s a little bit of extra sass with how they move their weapons after taking Krang down, like a “that’s what you freaking get”. Like, at the end of the day, they’re protective of their baby brother and heaven help anyone that tries to hurt him.
Good: THEY GET KEYS TO THE CITY
Bad: “I think you should give people more credit, they’ll accept you now.” SAYS THE PERSON THAT WAS INITIALLY CALLING THEM MONSTERS WHILE HER OFFICERS POINTED GUNS AT THEM. “You could live a normal life, like the rest of us.” YOU KNOW HOW PEOPLE ARE, STOP GIVING THEM FALSE HOPE!  
Alright, that’s the entire movie. Honestly, I love it a lot more than the first, there’s so much good stuff in this movie, you can see how they’re teenagers, so much more Donnie (after a severe lack in the first one…I’m also very biased since he’s my favorite, lol), and the sibling relationships between the turtles is great. Time for a tally.
Good: 69.90% (72 goods) Bad: 20.39% (21 bads) IDK: 9.71% (10 IDKs)
(I hear there’s plans for another one…I can’t wait to see how that turns out, lol)

Endless Chapter 5
Damian Wayne x Reader (x various)
Summary:Some questions are answered, some questions arise.
Warnings: Slight language, war flashbacks to Discowing
Authors Note: Yeet, hope ya like it
Tag List: @mirajanestrauss1999
I walked into the small coffee shop, shaking the snow from my beanie as I trudged towards the very back, my long winter jacket fluttered from the speed I was walking, I silently thanked the Lord they had the heater blasting in here.I peeled off the coat, tossing it in the empty booth in the back I'd been instructed to snag.  I tried my best not to let my nerves show, although to be fair I was meeting a complete stranger all by my lonesome, unfortunately Jon got an urgent call and had to bail, he seemed pretty hesitant to leave but after some reassurance that I'd be okay he dipped. Seconds felt like hours as I waited for the guy to show, my fingers drummed down on the worn down surface to the beat of the Christmas song softly drifting throughout the shop. The cheery atmosphere did nothing to quell the anxiety in my stomach, if the smell of cinnamon in the air and overall warmth the cafe provided couldn't help, then yeah I was definitely nervous. I tugged off my knit beanie, and attempted to smooth out the serious case of hat hair I had going on, thankfully, I braided my hair earlier so the loose curls sticking out looked on purpose, my fingers, now bored with the drumming, toyed with the ends of braid as a means of distraction. I felt my eye wander from the homely decorations hung up and around the walls, to watching the world go by through the window. I took in the sight, the snow had finally started to come down in Gotham so people were bundled up almost comically, and despite it being  below 40° outside, they went about their lives as usual, whenever new folks paid our city a visit, they were always perplexed at Gothamites abilities to ignore the freezing temperatures. I have to admit as sweet as the snow falling was to watch, hands down my favorite thing about this time of year was the city's tradition to string up what looked to be a million Christmas lights above and through downtown, making the usual dim, dark, nights much brighter. I was so in my thoughts I jumped at the sudden body very casually-and very loudly I might add- sliding into the booth across from me, I ended up slamming my knees into the table so hard the salt and pepper shakers knocked over. I whispered a curse under my breath as I rubbed at my newly bruised knee, and before I could roast the unwanted stranger, my head snapped up to see a familiar grin. "Yikes- that sounded like it hurt, you okay kid?" "Besides needing new kneecaps? Yeah just peachy - thanks for asking strange grown man." Said random man gave a warm laugh at my response, I took in his appearance, trying to gage if he was a threat or not, I could tell even sitting down the guy had a few good inches on me, he was wrapped in a brown bomber jacket, underneath was a crisp white shirt just asking to be stained by the grease that came with living here. He simply smiled while I analysed him, familiarity pinged in my head once I laid eyes on him grin. I scanned over his facial features, trying my damnedest to figure out where the hell I knew him from, his eyes were almost the same shade of electrifying  blue as Jon's, his hair fell in tufts of black waves, the few scattered snowflakes atop the waves made the black stand out even more.
All I got from my mini evaluation was this guy was hot, but I wasn't about to lower my defenses because of it.
He broke the silence before I could, suddenly looking confused as he glanced around the building. "Hey I thought you were gonna bring a friend? Or are they just hiding out in a vent waiting to ambush me if things go bad?" He joked, and just like that I remembered why I was even here. "Holy shit you're Ni- you're here." He nodded, the goofy grin ever present.My voice cracked mid sentence, I managed to stop myself from basically screaming 'Well butter my biscuits it's Nightwing! In the flesh!' and cleared my throat trying not to show the heat of embarrassment steadily creeping up my neck. "He uh- had to cancel actually, but don't worry I have a plan in case you turn out to be a weirdo." He laughed again, not taking any offense to my sort of threat. "Smart girl." He leaned back against the booth, thumbing through the menu like we were just two buddies catching up over coffee."I wonder if they serve any food, I'm starving.” He waved over the waitress grabbing himself a coffee, "Want something?" I responded still staring at the man confusion plastered across my face."Coco please." After a few moments of silence he spoke, clearly amused.
"You okay over there?"
"What no, wait I mean yeah why- why wouldn't I be." I internally cringed at my answer, he gave me a look which said he didn't but it, but the conversation dropped there.He filled the time spent waiting for our orders with casual stories about his day job as a police officer and how crazy it could be."Moral of the story, don't try to drive after your eyes have been dilated." I nodded, still, if not more nervous than I was earlier, a part of me felt like I should have been taking notes, he sighed into his palm, a smaller smile on his lips. "What is it? Do I have something on my face?" He picked up the dingy napkin dispenser, attempting to look at himself in the just barely reflective surface. I couldn't help the snort from escaping my mouth. "Nah I'm just trying to wrap my head around," I gestured to him with a wave of my hand. "- all this." He put down the dispenser with a smile. "It's pretty weird huh?" "Just a little." I laughed out pinching my fingers together. "I mean you're so - normal." Just then the waitress brought us our orders,He laughed into the coffee mug, taking a long sip before responding. "Well what did you think we did all day, work on our outfits and plan witty comebacks?" I paused before nodding. He sighed, rubbing his temple, "I can't speak for everyone but I happen to be a very normal guy- mostly." "Well 'normal guy' I gotta get your name cuz’ I'm running out of things to call you." He stuck out his hand,"Richard Grayson at your service, but my friends call me Dick." I took his outstretched palm with a firm shake. "Those don't sound like very good friends,” I joked “ I'm (Y/n) (L/n)." After half my drink was gone and the atmosphere was much lighter than earlier, a question popped up in my mind. "Let me ask you a question Dick." "Shoot." "Why'd you come here- you know, out of your whole 'sparkly' get up." He squinted at me, wiping his face before pointing a finger at my face. "First of all it is not 'sparkly', and let me tell you I know sparkly, one version of the costume had a very, very deep v-neck, I'm talking uncomfortable to look at deep, trust me this is an upgrade." I laughed, nearly chocking on my drink as I pictured him in the world's deepest v-neck, I wiped at my mouth with the back of my sleeve, the nerves finally leaving once I realized he was really just a normal dude.
Well a normal dude who kicks ass in tights at night but that's besides the point.
"Okay well that still doesn't tell me why you showed up all not-clad-in-skin-tight-kevlar. Aren't secret identities kind a big deal for y'all spandex junkies?" "Well yeah, but like I said before, you're a good kid, so I'm not all that worried." He leaned forward, a hopeful smile on his face. "Besides, there's gotta be trust between the people you work with- if you'd like to join us spandex junkies that is." I smiled at the man, a new wave of warmth spread through me as he spoke, I mentally paused, searching for any kind of hesitancy from my gut but all I got was a 50/50 ratio of nerves and excitement. "I'm listening, although I can't promise I'll squeeze myself into anything uncomfortable, even if it looks good." "Duly noted." He laughed. We spent the next hour shooting questions back and forth, most of his were unsurprisingly about what I could and could not do.
Mine were mostly about the tights.
By now the sun had set but there were still plenty of people walking about, apparently the threat of crime wasn't about to deter their Christmas shopping. "So what made you change your mind? About calling me that is?" He asked pulling me from my thoughts. I pulled on the sleeves of my shirt out of habit. "Something happened at the bank the other day-" "Wait, that mysterious hero was you?" "Yes and no," I gave a dry laugh "-anyway something..uh new happened with my powers and I figured if anyone could help me it be a dude who spends all his time around other people like me, can't exactly learn about this in chemistry class ya know?" He nodded with a warm smile, before his face shifted into something more of determination, "Look, I'll be honest here, personally I can't relate to the whole 'ooky spooky abilities' deal but I know a few people who do, and we'd all be willing to help." I gave him a soft smile, a warm feeling of appreciation swelled in my chest. "Thank you- I mean it really, I have no idea where it comes from- or what the full extent of it is." I huffed leaning back into the seat. "It sure be nice not to worry about it any more." "Again, like I said, it's kind of our job to help and protect. So it's not a problem kiddo." 
This felt like a moment from those sappy films where the older sibling figure ruffles the younger ones hair affectionately, but it wasn't.
Because if he tried it, I'd stab his hand with my fork out of reflex.
"So what's the plan here, am I gonna meet up with you in your secret lair and practice?" He chuckled out a no before continuing. "Not exactly, I'll have to finalize things with the big guy and when everything's ready we'll come to you." "Big guy?" He looked at me questioningly, a small smirk curling on his lips, waiting for me to come to my own conclusion. "Oh shit you mean Batman oh. OH." He shushed me with a laugh looking around at the other patrons before turning back to me. "Don't worry he's not at scary as everyone thinks." "Are you shitting me? Hell no." I shook my head with an uneasy laugh."He's on the Babadooks level- He's on that Freddy .vs. Jason level of scary." He barked out a laugh before pulling out the money to cover our bills. "Trust me kid, you'll do fine." "What if he doesn't like me? What if I don't make the cut and he throws me out a six story window?"
"That's oddly specific and-" he looked around for the sake of dramatics and whispered. "You didn't hear this from me, but if it'll make you feel better, you won't be dealing with him much." "Wait- who will I be dealing with then?" He winced out a small laugh, rubbing the back of his neck."See now I really can't tell you that."I pouted at the older man,"Dude! You said it yourself, there should be trust between people working together, don't contradict yourself Richard." I spoke with grin. "Damnit you got me there." He snapped his fingers together before leaning in "Okay but I'm only telling you because I think you deserve a warning." My brows shot up in concern at that. "Why would I need a warning exactly?" "Well, you remember that kid I had to stop from turning you to mincemeat?" "Yeah sure, I remember the goblin." He said nothing else, calmly sipping his mug, eyes cast away from me, making me realize exactly who he meant. "Shit."
Damian POV
I easily dodged Jon's incoming fist, his stance was wrong and his punches were sloppy, he was distracted by something. I used this to land a firm kick to the back of his exposed knee, bringing him down with a wince worthy thud.My heel pressed into the center of his back as I leaned down to the struggling teenager, the pressure increased on his back the lower I went. After realizing he wasn't getting up any time soon he tapped on the mat twice, signaling his defeat. "You're terrible at this you know." I offered him a hand after he managed to roll onto his back, he scoffed at me but took my offer, pulling himself into a standing position."Well yeah, thats the whole point of you training me." He rolled his shoulders before setting his feet in the proper position. He motioned at me to come at him, I simply walked towards the nearest bench and took a seat. "Aw come on Damian! You told me to come home and train but you won't even-" "You are distracted, in a real fight that would kill you." I spoke before taking a short sip from my water bottle. "Sort yourself out Jonathan." I watched the boy from the corner of my eye, his face was furrowed in frustration, I could tell he was losing his cool, it brought a smirk to my face. "I'm not distracted-" "You and I both know I'm not wrong, so talk, spew your problems like some prepubescent child, if it'll get your mind in the game."He sighed plopping down to sit on the slightly worn down mat, "I'm just a little worried about (y/n)-" "Why is there an update?" I spoke up interrupting him. He shook his head no. "Besides what happened at the bank? Nothing, I would have told you." He spoke that last line with a hint of bitterness, when I first told him to get intel on the girl, he was completely against the idea. My mind flashed to that first initial morning where they walked off together, a plan had came to my head to get the information I needed without doing much of anything. As the week progressed, I'd ask the Kryptonian if anything interesting happened with her, hoping she'd share with the boy, but unfortunately for me, he began to catch on. "Damian, can I ask you something?" "You just did but fine, go ahead." We sat at our usual lunch table, the everyday chaos of high school chatter blended our conversation into the background. "Why are you so curious about (y/n)?" I looked up from my book to meet his suspicious gaze."Is it wrong to be curious, Kent?" His leaned into his hand, the puzzlement in his eyes never faltering."No there's nothing wrong with that! its just, you don't really take interest in, well anything." I stared at him unimpressed. "No offense! I meant normal teenage stuff, like I only ever see you talk to a few people here, and whenever we talk it's about her." I won't lie, his intellect surprised me, but I didn't let it show. "She's seems like a nice person is all." I watched as his suspicion fell and the smile on his face grow into something mischievous. "So would you say she'd make a good friend?" My face scrunched in confusion."What?- sure yes if it'll shut you up." And with that he suddenly rose before making his way across the cafeteria, to my dismay he came back with the girl in question. (Y/n) looked between us, clearly just as confused as I was."Are you gonna tell me what was so urgent or keep me standing here like boo boo the fool?" "Damian wanted to know if you would sit with us for lunch!" Our eyes met, her's skeptical, mines more surprised than angry that the little shit had it in him to do this. I realized she was waiting for my confirmation, obviously not buying what Jon said. "If you want." I spoke after clearing my throat. An uneasy smile made it's way on her face before she sat down across from me, Jon took the seat next to her."Uh thanks? I mean this is uhm, nice of you and all but why?" Jon spoke for me. "Well we were just talking about how Damian here doesn't have many friends-" I kicked his shin hard under the table, but it only hurt my foot, I held back a wince and the urge to rub my now pulsing appendage. 'Boy of steel, right, I forgot.' Jon looked to me with a smirk before continuing."-and I was telling him all about how you're so nice and cool and yeah, here we are." She looked at me with a smirk stretched across her full lips, a perfectly arched brow rose in question, "That's surprising, who wouldn't wanna be friends with someone as charming and kindhearted as pretty boy over here?" The sarcasm was practically dripping from her voice.Jon, either too oblivious to notice or too excited to care, ignored this. "Great to hear! Well how was everyone's day?" Neither of us answered too busy in a stare off, I tried to analyze her, and she stared right back, refusing to step down from this unspoken glare contest. Jon interrupted us with a cough. "Well my day was great thanks for asking." She turned away to look at the taller boy, her expression much more friendly than the look she gave me. "Sorry, his whole 'children of the corn' thing going on is pretty distracting." she pointed her thumb back motioning to me, "-what'd you do today anyway?" He went on to list all the miniscule things he achieved before lunch. I half listened to their conversation, mostly focused on the novel I had, occasionally chiming in whenever I felt it necessary. Just like that the lunch period was over, and it was time to head back to reality.(Y/n) looked to me before she left, a half smile on her face, I was surprised it was directed at me and not the younger boy by my side. "You're not so bad Wayne, when you aren't talking that is." I smirked at the girl, slapping my novel shut with one hand."I'll admit, the brief moments your mouth was shut were rather nice." She laughed off my insult with a wave of her hand, before returning to her group to finish their day.
When the school day crawled to an end, and I was driving Jon and myself back to the manor, it occurred to me the boy in my passenger seat wasn't one to be easily fooled, it also occurred he may already know of her abilities and is acting stupid to throw off my questioning. I decided to sidestep all the bullshit of my original plan and straight out ask him. "Let's not beat around the bush Jonathan, has (y/n) told you anything strange about herself?" He snapped his head up, away from his phone to stare at me. "Pardon me?" I rolled my eyes at his act. "You know? Her powers, what has she told you of them?" "She has powers?" He practically screamed, I resisted the urge to slam the car into the traffic surrounding me and took a deep breath. "I'd appreciate it if you refrained from screaming like a banshee in my car." I spoke with a roll of my eyes, god the more time I spent with this kid the more I saw the inside of my head."You can drop the act, I know of her powers already." "I didn't!" He yelled, deflating in his seat."You're kidding me right?" He didn't answer."I'll take that as a no then, TT." He groaned tossing his hands up in the air, clearly distraught. The rest of the car ride was silent, him no doubt letting the information sink in. It wasn't until days later did we speak again, after he returned home rather late, looking like he'd been kicked down a flight of stairs. I sipped at the tea steaming in my cup as he sat down at the table, rubbing at his neck, exhaustion clear in his body language. "What's up with you?" His tired eyes lifted to meet mine. He hesitated before speaking, having some sort of internal debate on whether or not to tell me. "Something happened today, something with (y/n)." He gave me a very rough explanation, not wanting to delve into the details too much, before trying to head up to bed, I grabbed his arm stopping him in his tracks. "You saw what happened today, it could get worse if she doesn't get help, but she won't listen to me, so you have to do it." "What- me? I don't even know what you're saying." I resisted the urge to roll my eyes at the kid before speaking again. "You're her friend, it should be easy to get some information about the extent of her abilities and bring it back to me." He scoffed at me, "I wouldn't deceive her like that- I wouldn't deceive anyone like that!" "You wouldn't be deceiving anyone, you'd simply be using your friendship to gain information for the greater good." I responded with a shrug."It would feel wrong, I don't wanna use her." "No one said you'd use her, you can still keep up that happy go lucky friendship shit once you tell me what I need." "That's not how friendships work." He chewed on the nail of his thumb, deep in thought. I continued, placing a hand on his shoulder. "As a hero, it's your responsibility to protect the public from any threats, or any potential threats." I used my Robin voice, the tone I used to talk to civilians, commanding but nonthreatening, trying to get it through his thick head."She's not a threat." He looked conflicted as he spoke. "Any unregistered meta is a threat, hell me and you both are threats. Power in the wrong hands is never a good thing." "Well it's not in the wrong hands, she saved those people today!-" "Prove it to me, show me she's not a threat and I'll drop it." We stared at one another in silence before he nodded, a fire in his eyes.
"Deal."
I was brought back to the present when he moved to stand, stretching out his body."I think I'm good now, you ready for round two?" I placed the water bottle down before rising, I walked until I was an arms reach away from him, "Let's see if Kryptonian's are all their hyped up to be."
After a good two hours of sparring (aka me tossing him on his ass in many different ways) and getting an idea of what he could do and handle, we called it a day. We made our way up from the cave, into the empty kitchen, he grabbed two water bottles from the fridge, tossing one to me before sitting down at the table.I nodded as thanks and pressed the cold bottle against my warm skin, sure the kid couldn't fight for shit but he was resilient as hell. I leaned against the counter, the cold of the marble bringing some relief to my overheated body. "What had you so worked up earlier anyway?" I asked breaking the silence that had fallen over us as we tried to catch our breaths. He finished patting his face with a towel before speaking."Oh it's nothing serious, I was supposed to go with her to meet someone but she texted me everything's going smoothly." "Why would she need you there?"
Thankfully he learned early on not to take my bluntness to heart, so he replied with a smile.
"I mean who wants to meet some hardcore vigilante all by themselves?" My head snapped up so fast it startled the younger boy. "She's doing what?" He grimaced at me, a nervous smile on his lips. "Meeting up with a vigilante to discuss her powers?" He spoke as more of a question than an actual answer.I felt the urge to slam my hand to my forehead, or alternatively his head into the cabinet. "It just occurred to you to share this with me now?" 
My voice was rising, I couldn't believe the amount of stupidity bottled up into one human. "Hey in my defense I thought you knew! I mean it is Nightwing, you guys are cool right? You have nothing to worry about!." His eyes shifted from me to the doorway, as he inched towards it, his voice had gone up a few good octaves in fear. He held up his hands like he expected me to throw something his way, a good chunk of me thought that wouldn't be a bad idea. I paused, racking my brain for answers to all the questions I had, why would Dick go see her? Why didn't I know about it? Why was I not strangling Jon right now? So many questions with no answers. I looked up to ask him for any other withheld information only to see his body quickly disappearing down the hallway.
"I'm sorry I'm running but you're way too freaky to be around when you're mad!" He yelled over his shoulder, it echoed throughout the hallway. I had now two options, call Dick, demand an explanation and hope he'll give it to me, or take my anger out on my housemate and then call dick.
Option two sounded much more fun, and besides, a quick throw off the balcony would test his flight skills.

Good Puppy
Hey I’m gunna make another long post. When I was a baby my dad was obsessed with the idea that every kid had to grow up with a dog. So my dad went flat out /huntin/ for the best fucking dog he could find. For him the best dog in the whole fucking world was a Welsh Springer Spaniel. Not just /any/ Welsh Springer Spaniel. A Prestigious breed of the breed of Welsh, Springer, Spaniels. This puppy’s Grandmother was a fucking UNIT. I mean this is well, well before THICC and UNIT and BOI were being used but this Grandmother dog was the BIGGEST, THICKEST, STOKEST Welsh Springer Spaniel on the face of this bloody rock we hurtle on. I mean this Grandmother THICC UNIT of a DOG won awards for having the THICC’EST bones, BRoadest Chest, Biggest Muscle Heart, THICCEST BIRD DOG ON THE FLOATY ROCK OF WETNESS. My Folks had to name their new puppy something that had a T in it. Her siblings had names like ‘Tinker Bell’ and ‘Christmas Tree’, stuff my parents didn’t like. My dad was /dead set/ on naming the puppy, Riska. Like, No other name was allowed. But her name had to have a fucking T in it. Riska had /no Ts/, and our last name didn’t count as the T. So my parents in the car, driving back home trying to think of what kind of T name to add to Riska so they could take the puppy back home. And on the radio played, Ruby Tuesday. As my parents were struggling to come up with a name, on came a song with the lyrics “Ruby Tuesday, who could hang a name on you-” That’s the story of how Riska Tuesday *Deleted last name* came to be part of our family.
I have a lot of good memories with my puppy big sister. Granted I was /technically/ older by 6 months, but she was the big sister. Hands. Down. Riska Tuesday was my big sister.
I have foggy memories of being really little, like I’m not good yet at the whole, walking on two legs thing, little. And I can remember my Mom laughing with tears in her eyes, holding a bowl of popcorn. Me and Riska Puppy on the ground before her, waiting for Mom to toss another popcorn kernal at us. And Riska, I mean Riska /won/. She always fucking won when it came to food the selfish jerk! I have a few other food related stories/memories with Riska and food. I can remember the indignant Rage I felt every time Riska beat me to food, her chops flopping around like her fluffy fally ears with the tight brown curls and her freckled muzzle smiling at me as I WHIIIINED BECAUSE I JUST WANT ONE! So Riska took her role as being a big sister most serious. Like Most Insanely Serious. I guess she could sense I needed the protection. I can remember holding my Mom’s hand, Riska trotting beside us. Walking in the soft rain down the road, walking a beautiful grey and green street in the rain. I can remember at the T of this road, there was an ascending half wall. I always wanted to climb it but in the bushes on the upper half, there was a /gnome/. He was out to get me and I knew it and he scared me but Riska would walk into me and keep herself between me and the /gnome/ and her warm wet fur would be tangled in my fingers as I waddled along in my wellies at her side.
I remember the park. Coming up on the left. Heavy Silver clouds sprinkling joy and personal kisses on us as I start running for the park, always I felt more comfortable running. I remember Riska with her loose flapping leash, Mom knew better than to stop her by this point, running with me. Riska never let me get far from her side.
I can remember the cold slick of the slide rails. I wanted to slide. I remember the UUUMPH as Riska shoved me. I mean, She full on BODY CHECKED me off the ladder. I remember landing hard and SCOWLING AT RISKA PUPPY. To add insult to injury she didn’t even look at me. NOooooooo. She was climbing the fucking ladder after bowling me off. Because Riska Tuesday always had to vet anything I wanted to do herself. She had to go first to make sure it was safe. She had to sniff and do the activity before she would let her baby brother do it.
I can remember being on the ladder behind her, scowling at her stupid wriggly butt with her nub tail that was fustriatedly bouncing, as she tried to climb the stupid ladder that wasn’t made for her wrists.
I couldn’t hear. I remember feeling the vibrations through my hands, as Riska’s nails clattered and scrabbled on the plastic of the slide. I remember watching as her white and reddish brown fur wooshed as she went down. How she FWOMPED more than landed at the end, how she stepped on her leash before righting herself and running around the ladder, sniffing. I remember every time I tried to go down, I could feel her bark shake the plastic I was sitting on. I was /waiting/ for her to say it was okay. I didn’t wait. I slid down, and I didn’t get to land nooooo. Riska was instantly upon me. Her hot breath and wet nose as she sniffled and nuzzled and pawed at the whole of me. I wasn’t strong enough yet to push her off though I fucking TRIED. RUDE PUPPY. I JUST WANTED TO SLIDE! Eventually Riska sat to the side and looked around in the sprinkling rain. Letting me enjoy SLIDE TIME. BUt let me tell you. When I started baby waddling to the merry go round-OOOOOH BOY. Riska made sure it was safe before letting me go. And the /swings/- My Mom says Riska always did that. She always checked everything to make sure it was safe for me to do.
My dad was obsessed with training Riska to no ends. He adamantly refuses to this day to learn any sign language, never mind he’s more deaf than I am on my average days. But for my Mom he taught Riska Puppy sign versions of all of her commands. Riska was trained to how loud she could bark even. How frequent, on command, volume and duration. You could tell Riska to SPEAK to the dot with sign. He taught Riska that thoroughly so Mom and I could scare strangers off our home and lawn with Riska howling and barking like an arch demon. With out ever givin away that a human was in the house with the DEMON HOUND.
And it’s only now, so many years later, that I realize Riska’s Sign Name was simply the word for Dog. A snap of fingers and a pat of the thigh. Riska knew that was her sign name, and though I can’t make an audible snap. Riska knew when I tried and slapped my thigh, I was asking for her attention.
The two cats names were the first letter of their name tapped over the heart, then the sign for cat. Riska Puppy was simply DOG in sign.
I was six. The year one of the best things in the whole world happened, and the reason why I had to enunciate why it’s important to remember Riska is the granddaughter of the THICCEST bird dog of that current record ((I personally think Riska beat her Grammy’s stronk thiccness of being a fucking UNIT))
My Cousin, he was two years older than me, had been dumped on my Mom’s doorstep for 4 months, without his or my Mom’s consent by his mother. This woman didn’t even check in, in that whole time. Mother of the year (Don’t worry her story gets worse and my cousin eventually gets his life together after recovering from that woman’s bullshit)
So this one summer. One Amazing Summer. I have Riska’s red leash on my wrist. She’s as always barely letting me out of her sight. Cousin and a Neighbor boy are hanging out, walking around and being bored kids before the internet or video games became a THING Thing. On our walk there was this, foot ball or two sized grass field, before it led to a kind of clumping of trees. I can remember the image very well because of what comes next.
That sun burnt waist high grass.
See. There was one point when Riska was on walkies with Dad, that she managed to escape his attention. And she caught a fucking /vole/. And Ate it. Gloriously Hunted, Caught, and ATE a vole, Succeeding in her genetic building and creation, Riska was ECSTATIC.
He was horrified and SO FUCKING PROUD, Mom was scared she’d get sick and took her to the vet to look for worms or diseases.
But Riska, that was her BEST FUCKING EXPERIENCE YET. And I knew she was always lookin for another chance. Cos I also was looking for a fucking chance to hunt something too cos SHE WAS OVER THE MOON FOR A WEEK STRAIGHT AFTER THAT VOLE. NOT EVEN THE VET COULD TAKE DOWN HER HIGH. I WANTED THAT SAME HAPPINESS.
Out in that sun burnt, massive grass field. I saw it with her. A movement, in the grass. A small critter. More than a good throw’s away. But a critter, small enough to be a vole. I remember being suddenly much more aware of her thick red leash on my wrist, that I curled my fingers around that thick cloth. Her floppy curly ears lifted off her skull, her whole body turned into an arrow. My other hand was reaching up to give Riska a command of ‘Heel’ to remind her-
I swear, I swear on my Divines and my oaths. I swear. Riska Puppy Yeeted before the Yeet was Yeeted into LIFE. Riska Puppy YEETED herself after that small critter.
My feet detached from gravity and I was pulled first, form freely into the air, before the leash attached to my right wrist, DRAGGED ME BACK TO THE EARTH. Face First. OH MY DIVINES Riska Puppy is a Welsh Springer Spaniel, So she’s a medium sized bird dog. She was what, 55 pounds? Probably heavier since Riska Puppy was a fucking UNIT like her famous Grammy. I was not a small child. I was 90th growth percentile, meaning I was a fucking UNIT of a person myself. Not only that, but my Mom never let me leave the table hungry, so I often had 2nds and 3rds. The husky boy I was easily out weighed Riska by 10 pounds. So a fucking, Medium sized bird dog is dragging around a 6 year old who works out and eats 3 meals with extra helpings and snacks in between. A BIRD DOG RIPPED A 60′ISH POUND CHILD OFF THE GROUND AND IS NOT SLOWED DOWN AS SHE CHASES SOME FUCKING VOLE OR RABBIT OR SOMETHING WITH MURDEROUS INTENT!
You might think at first this won’t last long.
YOU’D BE WRONG
Riska Tuesday *Deleted last name* is TRAIN CAR PLUNGING THROUGH WAIST HIGH GRASS AFTER THIS CRITTER. All I can remember of this moment is Stunned SHOCK as my brain tries to process the SUDDENNESS of my arm almost being dislocated out of my fucking shoulder, that my DETERMINED genes kept my hand locked up around her leash, and that I AM BEING DRAGGED THROUGH GRASS AND DIRT ALIKE AND NOTHING IS SLOWING DOWN FUCKING WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT Now I don’t know the top speed of an AVERAGE Welsh Springer Spaniel, but I will tell you I would bet real world money that Riska Tuesday, with a husky 6 year old boy being dragged behind her by her NECK, beat that speed that summer day while she was MURDER INTENT ON DEVOURING THE SMALL CRITTER. I do know that both my Cousin and the other boy were YELLING and chasing after us. My Cousin knew my Mom would want me back and he had fallen in love with Riska’s Joyful attitude. So the both of them are trying to catch up. I’m sure someone told me to let go, nevermind I couldn’t hear it over GRASS AND WIND. But I know someone had to have yelled that at the stupid little boy who was dangling from RISKA TUESDAY’S MURDER CHASE RUN OF YEETITUDE. Eventually I could see more than just GRASS and my shoulder, I could see Riska’s RUNNING PAWS and the DIRT she was kicking up into my face. It was about then that I got over the shock and I started LAUGHING. My WHOOPING MANIACAL JOY VILLAIN LAUGHTER. Managing somewhere to loop my left hand up to grab the leash, hang on with both hands as she DRAGGED ME ON THIS WILD CHASE I dont’ remember which one, or if I knew at the time, but one of the other boys managed to JUMP on top of me and the leash, hands flailing to grab hold and HANG ON AS RISKA CONTINUED HER DEATH INTENT SPRINT OF DOOM Guess what Guess fucking what SHE DIDN”T SLOW DOWN NO SHE DIDN’T! SHE DIDN”T SLOW THE FUCK DOWN AFTER HER LEASH DOUBLED IN WEIGHT AS SHE DRAGGED TWO BOYS! OH MY DIVINES I remember hearing now, over the GRASS AND WIND, the sound of Riska’s HEAVING BREATHING. ONLY SHE WASN”T PANTING YET. SHE WASN”T TIRED AND SHE MUST HAVE COVERED THE FOOTBALL FIELD AT LEAST TWICE BEFORE THE BOY JOINED IN. I suddenly was aware of more SCREAMING, of the other boy and my Cousin,
It wasn’t long before as I’m still laughing my dragged ass off, till the THIRD BOY managed to leap onto our passel at the end of RISKA THE THICC TUESDAY”S LEASH. SHE DIDN’T SLOW DOWN. I KID YOU THE FUCK NOT RISKA THE I AM TOO STRONG FOR THIS MORTAL FORM TUESDAY KEPT DEAD SPRINT RUNNING AFTER WHATEVER THE FUCK THAT SURE AS DAYLIGHT WAS TERRIFIED FOR IT’S FUCKING LIFE CRITTER. Riska has, at least what, a hundred and fifty pounds of screaming and laughing boys, dangling off her neck, and she’s FULL FORCE CHARGING, THROUGH WAIST HIGH GRASS, And she’s this fucking, UNIT OF A BIRD DOG. SHE’S A FUCKING BIRD DOG CHARGING THROUGH GRASS DRAGGING THREE ENTIRE BOYS AND SHE DOESN’T STOOOOOP
One of the boys lost his grip and fell off, the other yelled in my ear “LET GO” before he NOPED from the experience of being dragged by a FUCKING TRAIN CAR HOUSED INSIDE A WHITE AND RED BIRD DOG.
I DIDN’T. I DIDN’T LET GO I AM AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOO DETERMINED FOR MY OWN GOOD I WAS NOT GUNNA LET RISKA THE THICC TUESDAY WIN. I think it was my Cousin who jumped back on when he managed to catch Riska as she looped around AGAIN ON THIS MASSIVE FUCKING FIELD. I know one of them ran off to get adults to stop this because, APPARENTLY RISKA DIDN’T STOP RUNNING FOR A WHOLE FIVE FUCKING MINUTES. A FUCKING BIRD DOG FULL SPEED RUNNING WITH DEAD WEIGHT ON HER NECK RUNNING FOR FIVE FUCKING MINUTES. WHAT THE FUCK RISKA TUESDAY! WHAT THE FLYING FUCK. She never fucking stopped on her own. My Mom came into the picture for how to fucking STOP Riska THE THICC Tuesday. Her and a neighbor adult managed to half tackle Riska, fall on her leash, when she was nearish to them. My Mother tells me of this, when she held Riska in her arms. How Riska’s entire body was BEATING with her HEART. HER HEART WAS ALMOST AUDIBLE FROM HOW LOUD IT WAS THU-THUDDING HER BLOOD TO EVERY INCH OF HER DOGGY FORM. LIKE A FUCKING JACK HAMMER HAMMERING HER HEART INTO OBLIVION AS HER CHEST PULSE WITH EACH FUCKING JACK HAMMERY BEAT. I remember when everything finally stopped. How I was stupidly dizzy from laughing too much and the sudden stop of all the movement and how I couldn’t see quite right since my head though everything should still be ZOOMING but it wasn’t and how I managed to sit up, giggle sick and still giggling. How my cloths that had been respectable T shirt and jeans. Were now. They were just, absolutely, GREEN or BROWN. No other colour remained, how my arms where they weren’t GREEN or BROWN were PINK/BLOODY. How Every bit of my was BUZZING from thousands of cuts and bumps and bashes and I was giggling. I remember looking up, the leash no longer on my wrist. Laying on the flattened grass from all the adults moving and Riska’s FORCABLE DRAGGED SLEIGH RIDE. Up and seeing my Mom while my eyes couldn’t decide if the world was ZOOMING or not. Riska QUIVERING like her very MOLECULES were going to friggen EXPLODE, Her nubby tail was wagging too much to even WAG Anymore her entire body was trying to vibrate/wag out of the quantum state. I remember looking at My Mom who was the absolute picture of abject horror. Staring at her now GREEN, BROWN, and BLOODY son. And I JUST SMILE BIGGER and start Laughing so much that I’m trying to not puke from how AWESOME EVERYTHING IS. Riska Riska Riska wanted to keep going. Riska kept trying to go back to running, Riska kept going to me and trying to get me to hold the leash so she could DRAG ME again. I tried to go with her- MY MOTHER SCREAMED NO! And then didn’t let us GO. EITHER OF US. I remember my Mom’s fisted hand in my shirt, right at the shoulder, her thumb against my ear. I remember my Mom’s immaculate finger nails curled around Riska’s collar. How she had to kneel to hold onto both of us well and keep RISKA FROM LUNGING BACK TO HER DEAD FORCE RUN Mom told me how she was so scared Riska was gunna run for so hard and long her fucking heart would just collapse and she’d drop dead. Now that I’m grown, I FUCKING AGREE. RISKA THE THICC TUESDAY WOULD ABSOLUTELY RUN HERSELF TO DEATH WHILE DRAGGING CHILDREN ALONG BY HER THROAT. The worst part-
The BEST Part Is Riska the THICC Tuesday became famous around our base cos all the kids wanted to go for a Riska Ride. People started knocking on the door asking if Riska could come out and play. She became a mini celebrity and I FUCKING WISH. The Internet as we know it and Video Phones has been a thing for Riska the THICCEST Tuesday’s FAMOUS DRAG to happen. I’m sure she would have been a fucking meme immediately for dragging THREE CHILDREN that she was all smaller than.
And my Mother didn’t let Riska drag anyone without supervision. Because Mom had to stop her. Riska barely listened to Mom’s orders to STOP and HEEL. Nevermind  MINE. Nah, Riska and I both knew who was higher in our pecking order. She was. I was the baby boy. Riska was the boss of me.
But it became a thing for the longest time, especially in Autumn with all the leaves, to go on a Riska Ride. Riska with her leash and a whole passel of children BETTING THEY CAN HANG ON THE LONGEST ((nevermind I already won that title, being the only one to ever hang on for the whole of a Riska Ride))
Riska didn’t catch that critter that wonderful day. But she caught an entire base’s worth of children’s love and glee.
So Riska and I, a good idea of our sibling ship. Was absolutely the “Anything you can do, I can do better” song. Riska learnt to sit properly in a car seat from watching me. Riska taught herself this. My Mother noticed this, and just. My Mom just buckled Riska in with the seat belt. I have a lot of memories sitting in the back of my Mom’s car, looking over at Riska who’s sitting calmly in her seat. She’d look over at me. And we’d have a silent puppy/kiddy conversation as we’d hold.
We apparently learnt how to get out of toddler play pens doing that. When we figured out if we both jumped at the same side, together, after trying to prove who could make the pen shake the most, to knock it over and esssKAP’E! My Mom tells me this happened often. Where she’d sigh. Seeing me sitting where I absolutely should not be. Eating newspaper. Riska taught me that. And My mom with me under one arm, would walk around the house, calling for Riska Tuesday. Often to find Riska eating my Mother’s own underware. it was always My Mom’s underware, never my Dad’s and only once mine. BTW, newspaper tasty, underware not so much.
Oh and Beggin Strips. Dogs are liars that stuff tastes worse than it smells.
This one time when the whole family was going out to do a thing. Dad’s car was STUFFED to the brim to the point there was barely any room for Riska and I. Riska pouting in my foot space, me cross legged curled up on what was left of my seat as I was pressed against the door. But we stopped at Arbies. GLORIOIUS DAYS. JUNKY FAST FOOD COS MOMMA NEVER LETS US EAT JUNK FOOD. I Ask for the MEATIEST FOOD THERE IS. When I’m handed my bag I go straight for the MEATY GOODNESS SANDWICH. Before I can take my first bite, I can see over it. See Riska at my feet. Very politely laying there, her nose working, as she smells all the NEW MEATY GOODNESS. I open up my sandwich because I’m a good little brother, and I rip off a decent mouthful to hand to her. Oh. Oh she laps it up and she’s PLEASED. WONDERFUL MEATY GOODNESS I close up the sandwich for my bite, fully intent to share like that. Bite for me, bite for you. Riska and I often do that. I get distracted by something out the window, I can’t remember anymore. But I lift my sandwich up to take my first bite into meaty goodness. Fluffy american bread, soaked in meaty goodness grease so it’s amazing-Then my teeth click together. I blink. Staring out the window. I rip the bite off and look down-Bread? Bread and bread-Where’s all the meaty goodness? I realize I can hear Riska’s SHLOPPING LOP LOP noises of EATING QUICKLY BEFORE SHE’S CAUGHT I look down and there’s all the MEATY GOODNESS. IN HER MOUTH
HOT INDIGNANT RAGE! I am FILLED WITH HURT INDIGNANT UPSETNESS AS A TINY BOY CAN FEEL My face screwed up as I was UPSET watching Riska The Puppy Tuesday eat ALL THE MEAT And I spit out One Word with as much INDIGNANT UPSETNESS as I can “///DOOOG///” My folks never let go of how hilarious my delivery was. Sure I had used ‘Dog’ before to empathize I was upset with Riska’s latest shenanigans, calling her Puppy at all other times. 
But I’m told my Deaf Lispy delivery and my FACE had been PERFECT
You can bet a solid dollar that for the next hour I was sullen and bitter at Riska. No matter how much puppy eyes she gave me and wriggles for ‘hey play with me’ during the car ride. Of course I finished my bread, it was good. But I wanted my half of the meaty goodness! We RARELY got to eat JUNK FOOD! THAT WAS HER AND MY’S FIRST ARBY SANDWICH.
The next rare moment we got Arbies. I took my bite first, while fending Riska off because HOW DARE YOU EAT BEFORE ME PUPPY I’M HIGHER THAN YOU IN OUR PACK. I am proud to say I won that fight. Our seat belts worked in my favour. However, I was still a good baby brother and I shared the meaty goodness with her...though I didn’t let it out of my sight the whole time, and kept a leg up to push her back as she tried to sneak in to steal all the meat again.
When I was Nine, my Mother finally figured out why a super healthy boy was constantly sniffling and rubbing his eyes and suffering too many ear infections to be in any world normal.
I was allergic to dogs.
I was, more than crushed. Riska was my big sister. I didn’t want to part with her, I didn’t care at that point- I was already half deaf and I hadn’t gotten any worse in years!
My Dad was also crushed. I dunno if he feels like my deaf’ness is his fault. Mom never wanted a dog, she’s solidly a cat person. She was against it from the beginning so gettin a dog was all his decision. I do know that we hunted for months to find a good family that Riska would love to be among. We found this older couple, they had grand children who were toddlers. Riska loves being around toddlers and little children. They had a wonderful house that was theirs outright, and it had a massive yard for Germany. There was a part of grass and garden lovingly cultivated, that ran the length of the house. I dunno how you US americans can understand how amazing that much yard is. But Riska and I both knew it. My Parents had an interview with the couple, saw the house and yard, met with their children and grand babies. Then let Riska stay with them for a week on a test trial. I got to come after the week was up. In our home while Mom never withheld food, she never let us gorge on junk food. We ate wholesome homemade meals.
Riska’s new family, well the Oma adored loving on Riska, and wanted to be sure Riska understood her commands fluently in English, Sign, and German. Within the week and all the treats, Riska easily put on 8 pounds and knew as much German as I did. I can’t remember the words in German, but I remember the Oma saying to Riska “Roll over and show me your fat belly!” with the sign for ‘roll on back’ And Riska Gleefully frowmped onto her back, paws in the air, biggest doggy smile, showing off her FAT BELLY. Riska and I went into the yard and we ran the length of the yard, Riska being nice and letting me win a few of the races. Others proving no matter how much belly she got she’d ALWAYS BE THE POWER HOUSE OF THICC’EST UNIT EVER. I remember Riska was happy in her new family. I remember Riska was gleeful to have me back. I can remember how my nose clogged back to how it had been since I could remember within minutes of being with her. How I started rubbing my eyes within ten minutes of playing with her. My Dad didn’t say much, nor did he look at me. Mom had sympathy for my heartbreak. I cried when I was hugging Riska for the last time. Broken voice and twitches of hands telling her I’ll always remember her and love her. Riska didn’t understand most of it, she thought since her boy was back in her new house, we would obviously being staying her. It’s how it had worked in all the previous times we had moved and one of us went ahead of the other in the move. Just, this house had WAY MORE JUNK FOOD and more kids to protect and love.
I remember the nice Oma and Opa, Riska’s new family, holding her as I walked out of the house. Riska whined and gave that one bark that was her command of BOY COME BACK! MY BOY COME BACK! I tried to ask for this to not happen. Mom said this was for the best, for the both of us. It hurt for a long time. I drew pictures of Riska, scared I’d forget about her. I kept her adoption papers. I think my folks still have clippings about her famous Grammy. But when I was a teenager, it felt pretty good to think of Riska. With her old German couple family and all the grandbabies to love and bowl over when they dare touch a slide she didn’t scout out first. To think of her in summer, out in the country side. Dragging all those grandbabies through the fields and hills. So well fed on good food AND Junk food. In the winter be attached to a harness and sled, and she’d STILL run like a fucking maniac while all those kids screamed in FEAR and GLEE and some poor adult was trying to chase her down before someone got hurt. It was a few months ago, that I started to get okay with the idea that. That Riska’s not still out there. Her breed don’t live past 15 years on average. And. Well I’m beyond that. I haven’t. I haven’t let myself mourn her death yet. Writing this all up and sharin it with, whoever will deal with all this text. Is my first, active choice step towards..... Accepting she’s. She’s not in that nice house with the warm carpets and the grassy yard and tussling with great grand babies now. She’s not jaunting through the evening rain to walk her passel of children to love and protect back home. She’s, Hah, Not going on MAD DASH ENDLESS RUN after some hapless vole or rabbit.
Riska Tuesday is a very good dog. She was very good to me even when she wasn’t. It feels wrong to phrase it as her fault that I’m partially deaf. It feels just as wrong to phrase it as my Dad’s fault that I’m partially deaf.
She loved me very dearly and I love her. I love her very dearly.
Riska Tuesday was a very good puppy, even when she was bein a dog.
