Ace pride hummingbird! I had a lot of fun with this one. I was primarily inspired by the violet sabrewing and marvelous spatuletail, both of which are very real and very cool birds native to Central America and Peru, respectively. Look them up if you haven’t heard of them, you won’t be disappointed. :)

Excuse me, do you mind doing headcanons about the first years (Ace, Deuce, Jack, Epel and Sebek (and Grim if you want to add him to the mix)) with Autistic Yuu? Because I read the one with the Housewardens before and I was wondering if you could try doing the same with the others.
Yuu is Autistic! Pt 2
✨Feat. The First Years; Ace Trappola, Deuce Spade, Jack Howl, Epel Felmier and Sebek Zigvolt.✨
How do the first years react to Yuu’s stims, sensory issues and behaviors?
They/Them pronouns for reader. MC is referred to as Yuu.
Tumblr media
Autism to Autism communication
Ace probably didn’t even know what autism was until he learned it from Yuu. He takes all those Are You Autistic? quizzes online because huh, he does a lot of the things they do too, should probably get that checked out—
Ace acts like he doesn’t care but he LOVES it when Yuu is rambling about their interests to him. He gets lowkey jealous if they ramble to anyone else.
Flamingo feathers feel nice! Ace always brings a few to Yuu after tending to the birds so they can have the Good Sensory. If Ace notices Yuu getting restless or overwhelmed in class he’ll casually slide a flamingo feather or a stim toy over to them to calm down. Luckily, Crewel also knows of Yuu’s autism otherwise he’d think Ace was passing notes.
“Hey, prefect! Guess what I got? Tada! A box of feathers just for you! The flamingos started molting today so I saved some for ya! Hehe, you look pretty cute playing with ‘em—I MEAN, I DIDN’T SAY CUTE—“
Tumblr media
Deuce finds out about Yuu’s autism on accident. While working on his blastcycle, Deuce turned the motor on without warning and it startled Yuu so bad they covered their ears and started crying. Deuce felt HORRIBLE he had no idea a loud noise would upset them so much.
Luckily for him, Trey came to the rescue and comforted Yuu. Deuce gets all the advice he can from Trey so he can be more careful in the future.
Deuce personally buys a pair of noise canceling headphones from Sam’s store for Yuu. That way they can protect their sensitive ears on this campus full of rowdy boys.
Something he loves to do with Yuu is studying. They have a hard time focusing so he’s happy to be a support for them. Even if they both get distracted.
“Hey! Keep it down over there, will ya?! Are you alright, prefect? Here, put your headphones on. Let’s do that breathing thing Trey taught me, ok? In for four seconds… hold for seven seconds… out for eight seconds…”
Tumblr media
Jack knows very well of Yuu’s autism. They’re always playing with the fur on his and Leona’s tails because of the fluffy texture. He spends a lot of time with Yuu clinging to his tail or playing with it like a kitten.
He loves the happy sounds Yuu makes when they’re playing with his tail! It makes his tail wag and that just makes them happier.
If Yuu has an oral fixation, Jack is always worried about if they’re stimming safely. If he picks up on any lip or nail biting, he’ll give them some gum to chew on instead. He’s currently saving money to get Yuu a sensory chew toy necklace so they aren’t harming their mouth or teeth.
One time a bunch of guys tried to sneak up on Yuu while they were playing with grass and scare them, knowing full well it would result in them crying hysterically. All it took was one intimidating look from Jack to send those bastards running.
“Hm? What’s the bone for? Oh, I chew on them to strengthen my teeth. Plenty of beastmen do it. No, you’re gonna hurt your teeth it you bite this, Yuu. Stick to your teether, ok?”
Tumblr media
Epel once heard Yuu bluntly tell Vil that all the makeup in the world couldn’t hide what a rude, awful person he was on the inside. He has been in love ever since. Just like Deuce, Epel is often making sure Yuu has their noise canceling headphones when they’re around loud places. If Yuu gets anxious or overwhelmed by crowds, Epel is quick to lead them away and help them calm down.
Epel adores hand flapping! It warms his heart to see Yuu flap their hands when they’re excited, happy, or just because they want to. They remind him of a butterfly!
Epel notices that Yuu tends to mouth off more when they’re in a bad mood. That usually lead to trouble so, if he sees his friend is in a mood he’ll leave them little treats and trinkets he knows will make them happy.
A few of the apple products made by Epel’s family become some of Yuu’s same foods. Whenever he gets a shipment, they’re the first to get some delicious treats! Grim can wait, you just ate you are NOT starving.
“What’s that face for? Oh, that apple was too soft? Ugh, the apples in the lunchroom aren’t that good anyway. C’mon, ah got plenty’o better tastin’ ones that are crisper and not as squishy. You’ll love ‘em!”
Tumblr media
Autism to Autism Communication Part 2: Electric Boogaloo.
Honestly, he might be a bit too intense for Yuu. Especially after the way he yelled at them for touching Malleus’s horns for the Good Sensory bumps on them. He’s just mad because he wants to touch the horns too but Malleus won’t let him.
But, after a firm scolding from Lilia and Silver, Sebek tries to be more cautious about how he behaves around Yuu… He just stands there absolutely silent and stares at them while they do their thing. It’s terrifying.
Eventually he realizes they’re a pretty decent person to ramble to! They are a simple human that takes interest in the Great Malleus Draconia after all, so they’re the perfect person to ramble about the great mage to! When they actually manage to pay attention that is lol
“HUMAN! Don’t dilly-dally, you’ll be late for cla—oh, oh right, inside voice! My deepest apologies! Mhm…. …. …. Hm? Master Malleus allowed you to touch his horns?! Again?! *sigh* You have no idea how lucky you’ve got it, dear human…”

Cumulus and Sunny my not-so-secret beloveds for #7?
#7: to shut them up
sunny's a nerd and cumulus loves that for her, hope you enjoy <3
from this prompt list
Tumblr media
It's a quiet Saturday in the band ghoul den, a rarity, and Cumulus means to take advantage of the temporary respite from the chaos. She curls her legs under her in one of the large armchairs in the common room, turning a skein of yarn over in her hands.
It's impossibly soft, a variegated thing that fades from deep, rich navy to a light silver, and she thinks it would be perfect for a scarf for Rain. The poor thing doesn't fair well in the cold Abbey winters.
She pulls one of her hooks out from where she tucked it behind her ear and pulls up a video on her phone; she'd been meaning to teach herself a new stitch. If it didn't turn out quite right the first time, oh well, she can always frog the thing.
Cumulus chains for a few moments until it's long enough for the short side of a scarf, pausing the video as the woman explains how to form the stitch, how many chains to skip and where to work the next one. She hums, following along slowly until she begins to get the hang of it.
It doesn't take long for the peace she's taking advantage of to be broken. Pounding footsteps echo down the hall, and if Cumulus couldn't pick up the citrus and fresh air smell of one of her packmates, one of her girls, her hackles would have raised, ruffled feathers and pinned back ears.
Instead, Sunshine bursts into the common room, copper curls bouncing as she looks around, eyes alight as she makes eye contact with the air ghoulette.
"Lu! Songbird!" She calls, grinning ear to ear and giving Swiss a run for his money.
"Hi, sparky," Cumulus says, eyes flicking back down to the yarn in her hands, not quite confident enough to do this new stitch blind. "You're done for the day?"
Sunny bounds over, tail wagging like an over enthusiastic labrador retriever. "Yep, just finished session zero, everybody's got their characters made. We start actually playing next week."
Cumulus hums politely. She knows that Sunshine's playing Dungeons and Dragons with some of the other ghouls; Special running the table and Cowbell one of their regular players since before she had been summoned. But in recent years, Sunshine's joined in, as well as two especially brave Siblings, and their newest player, Aeon.
"I'm playing a wild magic sorcerer named Aveline, she's human but that gives me a plus one buff to all of my ability scores-" she rambles, clambering into Cumulus's lap like an excessively needy cat, nudging the top of her head underneath Cumulus's chin.
The air ghoulette laughs, reaching around her lapful of multighoulette to pause the video on her phone as Sunshine keeps talking. "Aeon's got a half-elven rogue named Vox, stereotypical, I know, but it's easy enough for them to keep track of, no spell slots to worry about, just gotta get behind people and rack up that sneak attack damage."
Cumulus hums, grinning as she tucks her hook back behind her feathered ear. She watches for a moment as Sunshine gestures loudly as she keeps talking, rules and stats that she's explained a dozen times over but Cumulus has never been able to keep straight in her mind. Her eyes go soft as Sunny keeps talking, tail wagging so fast the spade thumps against the armchair, nearly knocking Cumulus's phone off of the arm. Something warm swells in her chest, a feeling that's never far off when Sunshine enters the room.
Cumulus can't take it anymore, acting on that warm feeling and grabbing Sunny's cheeks, pulling her down to cut off her ramble with a big kiss. It's worth it to see Sunny's brain shut off, train of thought completely derailed. Her feathers ruffle with a smug grin at the dumbfounded expression on her face.
"What was that for?" Sunny complains, whining. But Cumulus knows better, wrapping her arms around Sunny's waist and pulling her more securely onto her lap.
"I love it when you're passionate, Spark. Tell me more."
Sunny, ever eager, is happy to comply.

(Feather Au)Your dorm leader ver about Yuu being executed so amazing.Can I request about it again with the first years?
Everyone's out for blood today ay! *ends call*
I'm probably going on a long break from writing.
Feathers!Yuu execution but with first years.
Tw: mentions of death, angst, possible OOC because I'm learning
Out of all the people who chose to visit you, it had to be the people who cared about you the most.
"I really thought you were joking when you told us yah a wanted criminal"
Ace Trapolla, your first true friend you made in this wretched world. The person you wanted to strangle the most before.
Ace didn't give you the best impression when you two first met, when Grim officially joined the racing tournament. But his attitude has definitely improved a lot better now once you guys got along.
And now? You didn't think he'd muster up the courage to come and bid his last goodbye, you know how terrible ace would be when it comes to moving on, but you guess this is an improvement
After all, as long as he understands that even he can't do anything to save you, atleast he can say his farewell to stop being delusional.
"Well, I guess this is farewell then, but don't think you can escape me in the after life!"
"Typical Ace, hehe."
Ace turned around, good, if you can't watch it, don't look, you keep telling Ace to not act whenever it's not needed. Atleast now he's starting to change, when you're gone...
The next person comes up to bid their goodbye, you expected him to be here if Ace was here.
"I always looked up to you since you gave me so much helpful advice...I never thought you were a criminal Yuu."
Deuce Spade, if there's Ace, there's a Deuce. It's a non-spoken rule that your group knows of.
Deuce was the more helpful person whenever you, him and Ace hung out with each other, often assisting with heavy groceries or gears in general. He is just all on brawns...really.
You know that if none of the 4 will come, at least Deuce will see you to bid his goodbye, he understands the situation atleast.
The reality is more brutal than you think, that's why you shouldn't always be so oblivious to everything, so that it will be easier to move on when the time comes.
"I guess this is really goodbye...Farewell, I'll make sure to follow your advice though!"
"I hope you don't get into anymore fights Deuce."
Upon hearing what you said, Deuce frowned a little bit, but regardless, he moved back. Now the next person...
"I didn't expect this, not from someone like you at least..."
Jack Howl, the tsundere wolf boy you jokingly like to call. He's the main person you can count on when you need to go somewhere else leaving Adeuce unsupervised.
If there's one thing you'd give to him, he's better than any of you in this group when talking about attitude, well almost. His tsundere attitude wasn't always your favorite because you didn't like dishonesty, not like you have never lied before.
Jack is disappointed, you're someone who told him to go with what's right to him, and yet here you are, near your death.
You promised you wouldn't leave them, yet you knew the inevitable fate would come...why did you made it anyway?
"I don't really have much to say, I thought you were better than this"
"Sorry wolf boy, looks are deceiving."
Jack's tail dropped down along with his ears, despite saying things like that, he often can't hide how he feels most of the time, making it easy to predict how he's feeling...
He moved out of the way for the next person to bid their goodbye, the person who probably looked at you like a deity.
"I admired y'ah alot with your sharp tongue to people, but...this is too far ain't it?"
Epel felmier, your person to go with, because you get discount with Epel's pretty face, and he's fun to tease sometimes... and the person who would stop Vil from almost trying to poison you everytime you made him frown for defending Epel
He always wants to appear strong, puffing his chest out and trying to prove he's really strong to even trying to help you with your heavy gears & equipment ( even though jack is there to help and you can managed just fine on your own ), to indulge in his antiques, you just give him mildly heavy object so he won't complain.
Right now? Epel is quite upset, if you're gone, then he'd have to deal with Vil without any help, and noone would acknowledge that he's strong just like you did.
Even though he's often fight through pest and rough times during the country side, it won't be the same as fighting to move on once you're gone...
"I hope you'll get stronger to help more people apple boi~"
"Argh- not everyone is gonna look at me like y'ah do.."
You smirked, teasing Epel was a piece of cake, well almost as easy to tease Jack, but you can't deny that he had saved you from starving before by offering apple pie. You won't be able to repay the favor.
The last one, he's more quiet than his usual...
"..."
Sebek Zigvolt, for the love of god, you have no idea how he made it into this group, and how you survive with your ear drums intact.
He's loud. Especially speaking to his "Waka-sama" whom you have little clue about, and whenever you're bored, just listen to Sebek's rambles, free entertainment I guess...
It's awfully hard to get Sebek quiet majority of the time, you're surprised that he even attended your execution when he always saying he needs to be with his waka-sama, he's really hard to understand sometimes, but you're happy he cares at a somewhat degree.
A foolish human that is blinded by despair, you've made him feel something he shouldn't have felt when he swears to be loyal to his Waka-sama, you'll have to pay the price.
"I don't think you'll have anything else to say, so just back off and look away Sebek."
"..."
All Sebek did was backing down and standing to were the first year group is. You'd thought you'll lose your hearing to him because of how he follows what's moral and what's not alot.
But at the very least, your closest friends came...
You can go, till you meet them again next life.
-------------------------------------
Authors note: I think my brain went from 100%-0% when I wrote Ace to Sebek, possible chances of them being OOC but datz alright because I'm learning :D
Y'all out for blood aren't cha....

Okay, Cat -ANON, please tell me more about ghoul psuedo-biology. Like literally anything please
-All ghouls are formed in the same lake in Hell. I like calling it "primordial ooze" because that phrase has a good feeling in my head. They are all made in that lake (Special describes it as "One sec, you aren't, then PING! You Are. Kinda tingly.") and crawl out onto the Plutonian shores (again, using words because they feel good). It doesn't matter where on the shore they emerge because the portal to the church will always be very close to where they are. The portal inside the church is a permanent fixed installation, but the openings it makes in Hell are temporary and just for one ghoul at a time.
-Though a ghoul make walk into or crawl down a portal, they will always end up climbing up into the church because the permanent portal is carved into the sub-basement floor. If ghouls had any real sense of equilibrium, it might be a disorienting sensation.
-It might take a few minutes for a ghoul's physical form to, for lack of a better term, finish setting, so they usually sit, crouched, wings out, letting the last remnants of Hell ooze drip off.
-Upon manufacture in and subsequent arrival from Hell, all ghouls look largely the same- they are all humanoid in body, with a dull grey skin comprised of very small scales. Their hands have four fingers and one thumb, and they have thick and curved obsidian talons that emerge from where the nail bed on a human's fingers would be. Their legs are proportioned like a humans, but about halfway down the length of their feet they have cloven hooves. They have two impossibly black eyes, one nose, and no mouth. Their faces strongly resemble the Meliora-era masks in look and colour, and are referred to as "face plates." Some have black hair on top of their heads (ghoul "hair" is actually very very fine feathers). They possess no humanoid sex characteristics (From Special: "We are all smooth down there, all Ken dolls, eheheheehhhh. No, uhhhhh, no cash an' prizes."). All ghouls possess two ears, two horns, two wings, and a tail, but the look of these can vary from ghoul to ghoul.
-The only way to tell what element a ghoul is is to look at it's tail tip. Fire ghoul tails are tipped with the classic cartoon devil flat triangle, Earth ghoul tail tips are concave spades, Water ghoul tail tips resemble whale flukes, Air ghoul tail tips look like a tuft of hair or fur (again, it is actually feathers), and Aether ghoul tail tips are five-pointed stars. There are no such things as multi-elemental ghouls.
-The element of a ghoul is important as it denotes the binding agent that keeps a ghoul on Earth. After summoning, a ghoul will need to immerse itself in it's element to complete the ritual. Fore ghouls self immolate, Earth ghouls bury themselves in shallow graves, Water ghouls jump into the lake on the church grounds, Air ghouls fly into clouds. Aether ghouls are a bit odd, as they are more in tune with the resonance of astral bodies- some Aethers will sprawl out in a field at night to absorb the light of the stars and planets while others may burrow to find crystal clusters.
-Occasionally it is necessary for a ghoul to "recharge" their tether (From Special: "It's like a contract renewal, only it's a contract to stay, uhhh, solid.").
-All ghouls possess a degree of shapeshifting and glamouring abilities, comparable perhaps to the camouflage abilities of a cuttlefish in that they can alter the colours and textures of their skin quite extensively. However, it is only the band ghouls (and Special) who actively and continually use this power.
... I could go on but maybe that's enough for now?

Sins and Virtues Breakdown [a sinfully delightful assortment, if you will/ih]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*this post is sponsored by Pins and Four supporting my special interests/hj
First, I'll hand you all this handy chart :) it has the sins/virtues and their latin names skdjnsn
Tumblr media
I think here is where I'll talk about color schemes and the specific versions of the sins and how I theme them, and maybe I'll even throw in some costume tiers. And virtue talk tooooo
Cardinal Sins and Heavenly Virtues:
Luxuria [Lust] + Castitas [Chastity]
Okay so *looks at Luxuria! Sastre*/ih
For Luxuria, I portray Lust in a couple different ways. Of course, there's the suggestive version of Lust that comes to mind... but I also think of Lust in a materialistic type of way. Like lusting for power, status, the stuff of the sort where it isn't the suggestive kind but something deeper that's... a bit harder to understand. I guess you could imagine them as a dark temptress, trying to draw you in with different promises,,, whether it's power, money, or something... more seductive skfjdjfn
Color Palette wise… and costume tier wise... I imagine Luxuria has a rich purple pink black color scheme! Especially with an all black outfit with a dark pink/purple accent to draw your attention to… all their curves 😏/ih I also think heart shaped horns would be SO FUN cause when I drew Luxuria! Sastre, he had this set of horns that kind of curl in on themselves but if I can make them curl into the two halves of a heart???? OOOOOO I also think they’d be dressed in form fitting clothes and leather while also having that dramatic feather boa incorporated into the mix. Omg and a little sharp spade tail… 🤭
I’m going to keep using Sastre as my example because he has that Luxuria skin and I can’t properly articulate my ideas otherwise so/ih but just imagine him tying you up with the feather boa and pulling out closer???? Like woooahhhhhh there buy me dinner first/ih and those cold metal claws gently holding your face like you’re a squishy potato/j
I think Luxuria definitely has the markings of a upper class A tier. Like fancy and alluring but just not quite S tier,,,
———
Chasity... man, Chasity is a weird one because it's like abstaining??? But in a wider lense, with this lense of lust, it's got this sense of hard work and abstinence. Abstaining from temptation, both of the suggestive kind and of the materialistic kind. Bare bones, only the necessities,,,
For colors, I think a white and light purple/pink color scheme would be so brilliant, especially with these golden accents. I think Castitas would dress up in lots of lace and gems where it’s covering and more fitting yet also ��️ 👁️ like very beautiful very elegant like it should be so gentle and so pure yet,,, and wings,,, wings..!!!!
Castitas is definitely an A tier type of virtue I am telling you. Like fancy but contained delicate looking with its strengths… they’re definitely an a tier type of skin,,,
Gula [Gluttony] + Temperantia [Temperance]
For Gula, I don't portray Gluttony in the uh "traditional" sense I guess? While Gluttony is more known towards the comusption of food specifically [ie eating too much food] I like to think Gluttony should be more of the excess consumption of anything! Food, media, power, etc.
It's an indulgent sin, it shouldn't just apply to food and/or food-like sources. And it should be indulging to a greedy degree! That's what it means to be a glutton >:) This means indulging in every good thing. I also think that Gluttony is CONSTANTLY hungry. Like, they ever get full, they can just eat and eat and eat.
Gula seems like they’d work WONDERFULLY in blue!! Black and bright neon blues,,, with lots of fun gradients… I’m thinking no horns for Gula because I feel like they should have an indulgent outfit from head to toe,,, having an extra af hat onto of their head seems like such a good idea I- wahhhhh
I feel like the only way to portray Gula in all their glory is to give them the Sins S tier slot I’m sorryyyy I’m totally not playing favoritism here/ih it’s just in my head, right??? Load them up with details and accessories to show that indulgent, over the top, gluttonous nature feels like it would be an S tier worthy outfit, ya know???
———
Temperantia... should be a healthy balance. Not too much, but they also know there's no harm in treating yourself. They strive to treat others more than to treat themselves, and want everyone to have a good time! For them, it means taking a step back away from the spotlight and allowing others a chance at happiness. They share most of their food, they give away excessive items they own, they surprise their friends and loved ones with luxury... :)
Temperantia… I’m thinking that similar to Luxuria and Castitas, that the virtue and sin should have the same colors but with black/white added into the mix! So, Temperantia would have blues and white, with gold accents as well. It should be decorated... but still simple.
Temperantia is definitely an a tier,,, not too detailed but still pretty,,,
Avaritia [Greed] + Caritas [Charity]
Avaritia... For Greed, it's all about cravings! On the surface level, it's easy to mistake Gluttony and Greed due to them both being about excessive consumption... but while Gluttony wants everything it can get its hands on, Greed wants only the best of the best, and believes if it cannot have something, it MUST be destroyed. Gluttony will give up something to pursue something else, but Greed won't stop until it is theirs or completely destroyed. Because if they can't have it? No one can.
Avaritia having a black and yellow/golden color scheme. She’s a fabulous bitch/ih I imagine Avaritia is a smaller sin (like a child??) because have you ever met a child? They are either the sweetest little things or they will make your life a living hell. I have seen kids break toys in half because they couldn’t have it. No one can and you’re paying 15 dollars for a broken toy./lh I also feel like a younger looking Avaritia can get so much out of just having that child like cuteness,,,
Avaritia could be an S tier but I think only one sin can have an S tier so A tier be upon thee/ih
———
Charity and Kindness go hand in hand because it's all about helping out others. Charity handles bigger projects, and they live to help others. Their whole live revolves around helping others at no cost. I think Caritas and Humanitas would be siblings skjdnsknf
Caritas… I think a white and gold color scheme would be amazing in them. Like just so gentle and holy seeming,,, I feel like a long, flowing dress would be so nice and fitting. Especially if they pull things out of their sleeves Ayato style/ih like just imagine them walking over and whipping a whole thanksgiving meal out of their sleeve like “did someone say they’re ✨ hungry? ✨”
I think a-tier would be nice for Caritas but give them an s tier accessory that just lets them pull shit out of thin air/j Actually no I haven't chosen the Virtue S tier slot so *throws it at Caritas*/ih
Acedia [Sloth] + Diligentia [Diligence]
Like Gula, Acedia is seen in a different light with me. While Sloth is normally associated with laziness aka doing nothing, for me, it's more of a sluggish, bare minimum type of laziness. Instead of doing nothing, Acedia does the bare minimum, and everything they do is done with as little effort as they can get away with. This means letting others do the work, facing the blame, and taking the fall. It's all about doing the least amount of work possible by using others to your advantage, which I personally think makes for a scarier type of character. Because they get so far doing so little...
Acedia… I imagine Acedia breaks the color palette mold… like I think dull greens and dull yellows/off whites and dull pinks,,, because Acedia gives off these gentle sin vibes and I think neon and dark colors would take away from those softer/gentler sins vibes. Having knitted, oversized sweaters,,, with oversized sleeves… and having soft hands and round faces and even a little travel pillow,,, with all these different earthy flowery elements to it. And imagine a Sakura goddess outfit for Acedia,,, wahhh
Acedia’s base is definitely an A tier type of costume!! Don’t ask why just know I’m right/ih
———
Diligentia is probably the most polar to it's corresponding sin, to be honest. I feel like diligence can be a great virtue! They're smart, har working, flexible, but when does hard working become tiresome? Where does Diligence draw the line between working hard and burning yourself out, you know? I feel like it's a pretty thin line... maybe you should take Sloth's advice for once. Take a break, get a snack and have a rest.
Diligentia,,,, I think they’d keep with the virtues theme. Having a white, gold and yellow/green color scheme, and wearing a suit of some kind or being just very well put together, very well dressed.
A tier a tier a tier-
Invidia [Envy] + Humanitas [Kindness]
For Invidia, I think classical envy works so well! Envy is one of the more personal sins, and they're definitely a harsher, more sabotaging sin. They're a resentful, terrible mess. Similar to Greed, it either wants something or it wants to destroy something. But unlike Greed, their desires are hyperspecific, and it revolves around tearing someone down while building themselves up. They're like a leech, sucking out everything one has, bleeding them dry. And once they're finished with you... well, pray you never become a target in the first place.
Invidia is similar to Luxuria, where it’s a deep purple/pink with black but I think while Luxuria is more purple, Invidia is more pink. Pink with envy,,, I also like to think Invidia is a sharper sin, having spikes and binding and claws,,, like sharp, fabulous and ready to kill. Which, good for them. Oh! And pearl colored accessories!! Like a pearl snake,,, pearl belts,,, pearl earrings,,, with golden jewelry and sharp edges. I think Invidia would have three sets of horns instead of two like the other sins. I just think it would be neat andjskdks
A tier moment/ih
———
Humanitas babygirllllll Kindness is such a simple and nice virtue,,,, similar to Charity, it's all about giving what you have to help out others. By helping others, you can help yourself and make the world a nicer place! Kindness is like offering someone your umbrella in the rain,,, and sharing your sandwich with the kid who doesn't have a lunch. Kindness does it because it makes them feel good! They do a kind deed and it makes them smile knowing they helped someone, even if it's something small.
Humanitas,,, is definitely white, gold, and pink, especially light pinks- with flowery and flowy sleeves and such,,, I’m also thinking they and Acedia could have matching Sakura goddess outfits wahhh
I think that an A tier would fit her, even if her original variation was an S tier sdkfjskdfjn
Ira [Wrath] + Patientia [Patience]
Ira Ira Ira!! Okay, so Wrath. Wrath. Wrath!! It's my favorite sin because it's so versatile... Anyone anywhere can feel wrath for any kind of reason... at any time??? Like. woah. It's the mother [father? Parental figure???] of all sins I mean come onnnnnn. Your lusting advances get rejected? You feel wrath. Your feast is interrupted by some rude random? Wrath! Your envious deeds don't work out how you intended it??? Wrath!!! Like it is, without a doubt, the culmination of all sins.
Ira is definitely has a black and red color palette, and they are definitely wearing some kind of leather studs type of outfit, and they're very sharp and rough looking. You've probably already seen a version of my Ira heheheheh
They're probably gonna be an a tier,,,,
———
Patientia is... just that. Patience! Being patient and kind with others in comparison to Wrath's harsh and quick-to-anger personality, Patience is like a gentle soul-healing hug,,, take your time sweetie, I know you can do it <333
I think Patientia would have a gold, white, and red color palette,,, with golden leaf accessories,,, I imagine that they're a gentle, elegant virtue, like a mom friend! I want them to look soft and gentle in comparison to Ira!!
I think that Patientia could definitely be an A tier,,,,
Superbia [Pride] + Humilitas [Humility]
Superbia... I see Pride as an overflowing, excessive amount of self-confidence. Someone who's TOO confident in themselves or others to the point it's harmful. They tear others down to make them seem more important. They can't take a hint, and they can't BEAR being proven wrong. Because HOW could they be wrong? You must be mistaken.
Similar to Gula, I'm thinking of a black and blue color palette... but with Superbia, I think dark blues would be fun to use,,, with silver as the "royal" type of color... Superbia should look extremely upper class, kind of like a prince or princess...
Superbia would be an A tier... thinking of like Runaway vibes???
———
Humilitas is the opposite, where its like... being humble of yourself but uplifting of others in this case! Unlike Pride, Humility means recognizing that... you're not the shit honey! Sit down!/ih
Okay okay okay Humilitas. I'm thinking, no, I know it'll be two different blues [bright and deep blue], white and gold,,,, with thick, long white hair and constantly closed eyes,,, with big sleeves... heheheheh
Humilitas is definitely an A tier,,,
Vanagloria [Vainglory/Pride?] + Vanitas [Vanity]
what the fuck is Vainglory. What the fuck is Vanity???? How are these both not sins??? huh??? huh. huh! Okay so Vainglory and Vanity are a cardinal sin/heavenly virtue BUT NOT one of the big 7. Vainglory is kind of like... craving the praise and respect of others [so in this case, the big 7] but in such a way you don’t mind harming others to get it…
I think Vanagloria would have an exclusively monochrome color palette,,, so it's in all black, white, and silver,,, or a tight outfit with over-the-top metallic accessories to flesh out a "boring" interior with a almost goddess-like exterior,,,
Vanagloria... I was honestly originally thinking of an SS tier skin because I think that Vanagloria could be,,, like,,, the "creator" of the 7 sins and likewise with Vanitas,,, but shhhhh
———
And Vanity [the good kind???] is like pride but in a healthy amount. Being proud of your accomplishments and others without damaging other's self worth and feelings! I think.
So, I'm thinking to oppose Vanagolira, that I could do a total rainbow color palette, like all the "good" colors, everyone wants a bit of what Vanitas has, ya know?
I will just *gestures you to Vanagloria tier explanation*
Tumblr media
So I guess [based off the explanations above] that the in theory costume tier list would go something like this?????:
SS Tier costumes:
Vanagloria and Vanitas
S Tier Costumes:
Gula and Caritas
A Tier Costumes:
Castitas, Luxuria, Temperantia, Avaritia, Diligentia, Acedia, Humanitas, Invidia, Patientia, Ira, Humilitas and Superbia.
Tumblr media
Of course, there's the playable versions of them [think Genshin or Honkai] but i will NOT get into that, because that's a whole 'nother can of worms. this alone took like 3 days SIT DOWN/ih
I'm also thinking what other characters would be included like,,, in the overworld it isn't just the sins skdjfnksjfn
if you want more you will have to wait because Barriere won't write itself ksjdfnksjfnkjf/ih

To Reap and Sow
Fandom: Helluva Boss Characters: Stolas, Striker Ship: Stolas/Striker A/N: not me forgetting to post here, oops. I'm thinking I might extend this short into something longer and more fleshed out sometime. Summary: during his stay in Wrath, Striker finds Stolas alone.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“You prob’ly shouldn’t be out an’ about here on your own, y’know.”
Stolas’ feathers visibly ruffle before he twists his long body around to look at the imp addressing him. Striker’s smirking by the time Stolas’ gaze settles on him.
“Oh!” A hand comes up to smooth out some of the feathers peeking through his collar. “You startled me.”
“No shit,” Striker comments, pushing himself off the fence he had been leaning on. It wasn’t as though he had been hiding, but it really came as no surprise to Striker to find Stolas hadn’t noticed him until he spoke. “But you’re just provin’ my point. Royalty like you shouldn’t be wanderin’ ‘round here on your own like that.”
“I’m sure I’m fine,” Stolas says, and he tries to smile but it isn’t his best attempt. “I’ve been coming to Wrath for the Harvest for years, and I’ve never run into a problem yet.”
Yet, Striker thinks. His tail rattles.
“First time for everything, right?” he asks, and it sounds more like teasing than a threat. A promise.
He steps closer to the taller demon, but not quite close enough that he has to crane his neck to look up at him.
“Wrath’s a dangerous place even on its best days, even for the locals.” He starts to walk around the prince, tail rattling once more. He can hear Stolas’ heart beginning to beat faster, can feel the anxious heat coming off his body. His smirk sharpens, natural teeth and gold glinting in the light of the setting fire rings.
“Y’never know what’s waitin’ for ya out here.”
The spade of his tail brushes the back of Stolas’ thigh, runs beneath his long tail feathers. The prince shudders and doesn’t bother to stifle the quiet gasp that leaves him before he tries to whirl around, trying to keep up with the imp circling him.
The sudden sense of being enclosed causes Stolas to misjudge his footing, and though talons scrape at the sand and dirt beneath his feet, there’s no grip to be found. He topples over, but he doesn’t hit the ground.
Striker catches him, strong arms at his back, claws digging into his side and one shoulder. His breath hitches as he looks up at that grinning face hovering just above his own.
“At this rate, you might just end up takin’ yourself out,” Striker teases with a wink, and Stolas feels his face growing warmer.
“Ah - perhaps you’re right,” Stolas says, and scrambles gracelessly back to his feet. “I should probably be heading back to my room.”
“How ‘bout an escort?” Striker asks, and he revels in the way Stolas’ heart pounds at the suggestion. “Just t’make sure you make it back safe an’ all. It’d be a real shame if somethin’ happened before you got to curse this year’s harvest.”

Woke up again in the pouring rain, I feel the windows shake, thunder in my brain.
The shadow overtook him, bleeding into his skin and bones, his muscles and nerves. A wicked grin spread across his face, eyes once a soft lavender turn a murderous red. Wings extend to their full length, spade-tipped tail flicking back and forth.
Every thought is like a hurricane, Destroying everything but it leaves no trace.
Sharp teeth sink into the arm of a human, she screams. He knocks her over and dominates over her. The stench of blood fills his nose.
Four walls made of skin feeling paper thin. Don't know if they can take what they're holding in.
Her flesh is ripped from her bones, her voice is lost in the static of his ears. He can’t stop it, the shadow is controlling him. He stands above her, wiping his mouth of her blood... smudging it.
It's death-threat, déjà vu, out for blood again. It's out for blood again (it's out for blood again)
Sharp teeth sink into skin again. Into skin. Into fur. Into feather. Into scales. Into the people. The people, over and over and over and over--
I'm a cage, I'm a prison for what no one sees, Ashamed like I'm sleeping with the enemy.
Like a ghost watching his body commit these atrocities, having kept the monster down for so long-- only for it to emerge on it’s own and do as it pleases with HIS body.
No one believes me, but I'm six feet deep. It's a monster made of memories.
‘Stay safe’, she would always tell him. ‘Don’t let it out. Please stay alive.’
I COULDN’T KEEP IT IN...
It's alive, like a parasite inside of me, And it feeds off the trauma of what used to be.
‘RUN!’
‘GET OUT OF HERE!!’
‘DON’T LET IT OUT!!’
‘PLEASE STAY SAFE!!’
But there's no shred of evidence 'cause I don't bleed. From this monster made of memories.
‘You must have consent.’
‘You can’t seduce them.’
I TRIED I TRIED I TRIED I TRIED. I WAS SO HUNGRY I DIDN’T MEAN TO HURT ANYONE...
My darkest own made a creature, That feeds on the fear of everything I can't forget.
‘IT’S THAT INCUBUS!’
‘GET HIM BEFORE HE KILLS ANYONE ELSE!!’
‘MONSTER!’
‘MURDERER!!’
‘CYN, RUN!’
It walks beside me, gun against my head. So I look terrified 'til I've paid the debt.
‘It’s going to be okay...’
No it’s not!! He’s killing everyone in MY body!! I can’t stop it! It’s moving without me wanting it to! There’s so much BLOOD!! 
PLEASE!
Four walls made of skin, feeling paper thin. And I know they can't take what they're holding in. It's death-threat, déjà vu, out for blood again. It's out for blood again.
He feels the thick bile raising in the back of his throat. The disgusting feeling as it churns and twists, finally the black sludge passes his lips-- onto the ground at his feet. It reeks of blood and rotting flesh. Just like like last time... the putrid stench of it and the way it made his body ache and mind blur. 
I'm a cage, I'm a prison for what no one sees, Ashamed like I'm sleeping with the enemy.
‘She doesn’t talk...’
‘The people who sold her to me told me that...’
NO NO NO NO!! YOU KEEP AWAY FROM HER, DON’T YOU FUCKING TOUCH HER!!
And no one believes me, but I'm six feet deep. With a monster made of memories.
‘You don’t know a thing about what I’ve been through! Outcast because my fur is black! A ‘bad omen’ among the Felines! I don’t want to hear shit from you!!’
I’m a MONSTER... I’m not even one of the PEOPLE... but... your feelings are still valid. You were still hurt, I’ll still be here for you...
Up all night 'cause I can't sleep. With a monster made of memories.
“Come on Cyn, all of these years you’ve been alive, have you done nothing exciting?”
I have... but ‘exciting’ isn’t the word I would use...
Keeps me scared, so it can feed. It's a monster made of memories.
“I mean– what about sex, huh? I’ve seen the scars on your wings, so that means something had to have happened right??”
I COULDN’T TELL HER ‘NO’... 
Up all night 'cause we can't sleep. With a monster made of memories.
“You saved Keisa, what about that story?”
One good deed does not make me a good person... I am still a MONSTER...
Keeps us scared, so we won't speak. It's a monster made of memories.
“JUST SAY SOMETHING, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!”
I CAN’T I CAN’T I CAN’T I CAN’T I CAN’T ICAN’TICAN’TICAN’TICAN’TICAN’TICAN’T
I'm a cage, I'm a prison for what no one sees, Ashamed like I'm sleeping with the enemy. No one believes me, but I'm six feet deep. With a monster made of memories.
STOP KILLING THEM!! LEAVE THEM ALONE!! STOP HURTING THEM!! STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT!!
It's alive, like a parasite inside of me, And it feeds of the trauma of what used to be. But there's no shred of evidence 'cause I don't bleed. From this monster made of memories.
Everything goes still. Like a wave everything comes crashing down. The Incubus is suddenly back in control of his body, dropping to his knees.
There is nothing around him. There’s no taste of blood in his mouth. Cloak had been discarded at some point, leaving only his backless crop-top and harem pants. His body is coated in sweat.
Up all night 'cause we can't sleep.
Cyn slowly raises his hands up, pressing the palms of them against his eyes. With a deep inhale, he rubs them.
With a monster made of memories.
His hands move from his eyes, and all the bodies that were littered before him were gone.
Like magic... like it had never happened.
Keeps us scared, so we won't speak.
“Cyn, are you okay...?” Nico tilted his head a bit, glancing down at the Incubus. “You just suddenly spaced out for a moment there... then dropped to your knees.”
It's a monster made of memories.
“Yeah, just felt light-headed for a moment...” Cyn responds, breathing out a heavy sigh and pushing himself back up to stand. “I’ll be alright... lets just keep going.”

[JellyBlitzo]  « don’t leave me alone. »
| Concurred and protective starters
“Ya know being like four times my size,” Blitz said against the tiredness weighing him down to the giant plush-like top of Stolas’ bed, and the slick sheets around them. The soft and warm owl themself, who was resting on top of the imp the moment he made mention of needing to get up and head towards I.M.P. since he slept in this morning. “Isn’t going to stop me from knocking you on your fine feathered ass.” It was an empty threat but he still made it as he moved to try and sit up the best he could do was prop himself onto his elbows. Stolas does not seem to want to budge or let go of him.
Tumblr media
“Stolas.” Blitz said in the best firm tone he could watch his boyfriend just give him the most pathetic look they could seem to muster at that moment as they went to say they didn’t want him to go though. "Stolas come on now I'm too late for even I'm late cause I stopped for some coffee kind of late. And trust me, getting stuck dealing with sinners without my caffeine dose it not a good mix" He went to threaten a bit. "besides I'm going to be back later after we get some jobs done today, so it's not like you won't see me later?" Sure he still had his apartment in imp city but truth be told lately if anything it was purely Loona's place. Seeing how often the imp was finding himself her with his boyfriend instead. The trip could be long and take a while but..eh it was worth it. Expect when someone was feeling just a little extra clingy like Stolas was this morning apparently.
Wiggling and trying his best to work his way free just seemed to get Stolas to tighten thier grip on him tighter instead. So Blitz, shifted and rocked side to side till he finally managed to wrangle his arms down in between the owl's own. In a shift quick like snap he threw his arm out breaking Stolas' hold finally in a split moment of triumph as he pulled his legs up and tactfully rolled away before they could snatch him up again. Forgetting just how slick the silk sheets the prince had been as he instead slipped off the side of the bed. At least his head took most of the fall, he thought as he lay on the floor for a few seconds before moving to sit up and rub at his head. "I always forget how tall your bed is." He complained under his breath as he could feel a slight sting at the side of his head from the fall. When he didn't get much of a response he looked back at Stolas, sulking likely now. Blitz went and rolled his eyes before moving to rest his arms on the edge of the bed. "Jelly" he said softly to get those beautiful red gem likes eyes to look his way, beak fully pouted out to make it clear they were upset right now.
"don’t leave me alone."
The imp lifted his brow a bit moving to rest his cheek on the knuckles of his hand. "I know I'm irresistible but even you gotta admit you're being ridiculed this morning," he said smiling as he did it. Sighing fine complaints and logic weren't doing the trick this morning it seemed. Lifting up his tail as he let it snake up over the bed till the spaded tip was under the owl's chin gently lifting it to angle thier face to face him better.
Tumblr media
"Someone seems to be in a mood this morning?" he teased a bit "What? didn't you get enough sleep? or you trying to say I didn't wear you out enough." He was messing with them now. Slow to crawl onto the bed as he kept his tail as it was, only moving it to tilt thier head back more once he was up top again. "I'll be back later but the longer you make me stick around to play the less time we'll have you know? and I kind of like getting to lounge around without having to pop right back into bed. Wouldn't you?" leaning down to steal a quick kiss as he pulled his tail away from them. "Now behave." stern tone back quick to cover any of that softer tone was speaking with just a second ago. "If you're good I'll be all kinds of soft with ya later tonight alright pouty prince of the big heavy book." smirking as he was teasing them more now. "Ya know I think that sound better than your actual name."

Forgot I have a blog have a drabble Ig
lol sorry
Sapnap was not going to lie...the car ride was taking much, much longer than he expected. Trees and bushes he swore he saw earlier whizzed by the windows, looking almost like stripey, green paint smears rushing by. He kept his eyes on the road, leather steering wheel slippery under his grip. Sneaking a peek into the back of the car, the two other occupants were snoring softly, chests rising and falling in harmony. Quackity and Karl took no notice of the other, with Karl murmuring sweet nothings in his sleep. At the sound of his voice, Quackity snuggled in closer instinctually, a small coo escaping his mouth as he did. ‘Cute.’ His mind supplied, smiling over them like a fawning dam. He shook his head, shaggy hair almost falling into his face. ‘Gotta stay focused. Can’t crash the car with them in it.’ He weaved his tail through the cracks in the seats to check on them anyway, spade dragging over something glassy and spherical shaped as he reached for Karl. With a little maneuvering, he pulled off the accessory, patting the time traveler’s head. The softness of his hair made him giggle a bit, forcing him to pull back in order to keep them from crashing into a tree. ‘Nope, nope. Stay focused. Don’t think about them, don’t think about them…’
The sound of the radio humming softly in the background faded in and out of Sapnap’s consciousness, like a drumstick just barely touching the leather surface. It was the one thing that kept him going throughout the whole car trip- that, and the soft trilling coming from the duck in the back seat. He sighed, ears flicking slightly to stave off his own drowsiness. The GPS’s voice beeped in his ear, startling him slightly. “You have reached your destination. It is ahead on the right.” Hair standing on end from the grating voice, he shuddered, shakily driving into the designated parking spot outside his house. ‘Ugh, why is that GPS so fucking loud? I need to turn the stereo down, man. Ow.’ 
Stumbling out into the chilly air of the night-time, he wrapped his tail about his waist, instinctually heating up to keep himself at a healthy temperature of 104 degrees. With a few little crackles, his clothes smoldered from the heated contact, but stayed relatively fire-free. Gingerly, he opened the back door, arm outstretched in case one of his lovers was leaning on it. Much to his relief, they were not. Carefully, almost too carefully, he tapped the closest shoulder (?) among the tangle of limbs and feathers. A small jerk accompanied the tap. Nothing else moved. He tapped again. 
“Hello? Are either of you awake?” A small moan, high yet throaty, escaped the owner of the shoulder he was tapping. Emboldened by the reaction, the blaze tapped again, this time much more insistent than before. The soft fabric the two of them were under shifted at the movement beneath it, making a shuffling sound that was unmistakably Karl. “Karl, I know you’re awake~” The brown-haired man groaned softly, one eye opening to look at his assailant with mock irritation. “Go away, I’m sleeping. Dead. Not alive at all, you killed me.” He slumped down, head lolling even more than before in a overdramatized show of ‘death’. “Blech.” 
Whether or not Sapnap believed his act was veritable or not, it certainly was loud enough to rouse the final of the trio. Wings flicking outwards and catching Karl in the side of the face as they extended, he yawned widely, feathers fluffing. The time traveler let out a curse at the whack. ‘Ow, Quacks, that hurt…” He whined, making his best (sleepy) puppy-dog eyes at the barely-sentient avian. Quackity paid it no heed, simply crawling slowly towards the door as drunkards do. He’d know, he had to deal with them almost every day at his casino. Out of the two still within the car, he was the first to emerge in all his pin-feathered glory, stumbling into Sapnap’s arms like a rag doll. The warrior chuckled, hefting him onto his shoulder with a grunt. “Hmph, guess I’ll have to carry you guys. Literally, this time.”
“Karl?” 
“Yes?”
“Wanna hitch a ride?” 
“…Fuck yes.”
“Don’t let my dad hear that on a call, or he’ll kill ya.” 
It didn’t take long for Karl to get situated.
Karl didn’t have much on him, which made things even easier for them to pick up and bring into the warm, already-lit house. A pair of goggles for his time-warping, a few pairs of clothes, his notebooks and quills…and that was about it. Karl was a light packer. 
Quackity? Not so much. 
Sapnap hissed at the burn in his calves, tail lashing a little. “Quacks, did you bring your entire casino with you? How heavy did you pack?!” The duck hybrid smirked, huffing a jar of…something he stole from his bags. With his other hand, he placed some extra baggage on the edge of his tail, watching with amusement as it slid down the length of it and mussed up the hairs there. Another curse flew past his face as he did, as well as a glare that could have cooked him with its intensity. Turning to the side, he whistled, holding his arms behind his back in fake innocence. “What? Did something happen?” Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw his lover hiss out a small plume of smoke. “You little shit.” He covered his second smirk with a well-timed wing stretch. “I have no idea why you would call me such a rude thing out of the blue like that. How dare you.”
A smirk of his own began to grow on Sapnap’s face, a look that sent a little chill down his spine. “You’re lucky you’re so cute and it’s too cold for me to supercharge myself, or you’d be on the floor right now.” “Pants on or pants off?” A little twinkle in his eye, this time. “Either would be fine with me.” 
A soft voice from the inside of the house made the two pause. “Sappy, Quacky, it’s 1:30..I wanna go to bed soon, please?” Both pairs of eyes widened. A beat of silence passed, with nothing but a soft bowing of the wind to punctuate the supreme lack of reaction from the two, before Quackity lunged for the door, running away at top speed. Sapnap ignored the burn in his muscles to chase after the duck, panting softly with the exertion. Already used to the two rowdier men in his life, Karl stepped to the side nonchalantly, waiting for the two of them to enter the house before shutting the door with a satisfying click. He shook his head slightly, rubbing his eyes a little. “Those two have that much energy? Oh boy, I don’t know if I can keep up with that pace if this is an everyday thing…” The thuds of the duo’s socked feet hitting the hardwood floor made him giggle a little. “If they don’t tire themselves out first, I mean. I should go check on them soon..” He trailed off, glancing at the fireplace longingly. “Hmm…” Walking towards the glassy windowpane, he lit a match on the edge of the bricks, throwing it in and switching the gas on. Soon enough, the smell of flames and warm coals buffeted his face. Muffling a sigh of content, he closed the door quickly, sitting on the edge of the couch. Noticing that the sounds of their chase had subsided, he called out, “Saved some space for you two! You two tuckered yourselves out, didn’t you?”
Sure enough, the duo had shuddered to a stop, halting breaths making their chests heave like two points in the sea. Karl had to resist the urge to rush to them right then and there to give them a hand as they struggled to sit down on the couch. “You two are so dumb sometimes.” He rolled his eyes fondly at the two of them, before noticing a particular item in Sapnap’s hand. “Is that...my luggage bag? Have you been carrying that the entire time?” The sheepish silence from the other said enough. “You’re such a honking idiot, Sappy.” A toothy grin was his only retort. A small groan from Quackity made their attention shift to him. Sapnap opened his mouth to make a joke about his apparent loss in their mock-game of tag. It was certainly the wrong choice. 
Gold, shimmering feathers found their way into his open mouth, soft, outlined wings stretching out. Quackity snickered at the resulting sputter he got from his boyfriend, pulling back his wing before any payback could occur. “That’s for fucking shoving me into the floor. Twice.” Sapnap glared at him, but there was no real heat behind it. With a soft, resigned growl, he leaned back into the couch, sinking into it a little more and shoving his horns into the cracks in the cushions. The pressure on the faces of them made him hum a little, tail stretching out to wrap around Quackity’s wrist. 
Quacking softly in return, the duck hybrid spread his wings out, laying the dandelion primaries on his two lovers. After a moment of fluffing, they sat like two flower-colored blankets to either side of him, as if they were doused in a shimmering mustard-and-sunlight hued veil. Karl made a noise of contentment himself, grabbing at his wing gently and organizing the feathers carefully. He kneaded into the semi-tense muscles, a small pang of joy overwhelming his senses when each spot slowly relaxed under his fingers and a small little trill escaped Quackity’s lips. Sapnap was no different, carding through the feathers and heating up just enough to feel cozy for the other. Massaging his body heat deep into Quackity’s muscles, he grinned at the contented noises the others were making.
 Still trilling, the duck grabbed Sapnap’s tail, inciting a small surprised noise from the blaze, and gently took the spade of it into his hands. With deft, flickering touches, the man teased the soft, velvety surface of the twitching appendage. Massaging small circles into the membrane where spade and tail-bone met, he grinned slightly at the hitch of breath he got in return. “LIke that, mi corazon?” A soft growl was Sapnap’s only response, as well as a small prick of his fingernails digging into his feathers. His fingers traced the outlines of his tail, rubbing the soft fluff with the meat of his thumb. At the edges, he scratched ever so slightly at the sensitive ridges. Sapnap giggled, squirming in place and purring a bit. His cheeks heated up at the way the two of them looked at him. 
“W-whihy are you guhuys looking at me like tha-hat?” 
Karl’s eyes twinkled with mischief and adoration. “Well, you’re just too cute! If Q’s making you this soft and giggly, what would the two of us be able to do to you?” His ears flicked back a little from the gentle teasing. Covering his mouth and breaking eye contact, his tail halfheartedly tried to escape Quackity’s grasp. The casino dealer merely held on tighter, scribbling lightly over the surface again to watch his lover’s shoulders jump from repressed laughter. Karl giggled to himself, getting off of the couch to circle around it and ambush the blaze. When Sapnap’s eyes almost flicked to the (not very sneaky) man, Quackity thumbed at the base of it again. He choked on a loud purr, eyes fluttering closed as he all but melted onto the armrest. “S-stohop, I ne-need to help you two gehet sihituateD-”
 He yelped at Karl’s sudden touch on his horns, before another stuttering loud purr escaped him. The time traveler standing above him grinned, scratching and squeezing his horns. As he teased his lover’s horns, he leaned down to whisper into his flicking ear. “Well, we can do that after you’re a puddle of purrs and giggles, can’t we?” The blaze squealed, shoving his face deeper into the armrest. “N-ahaha, Kaharl!” His horns pulsed with energy beneath his hands, the sensitive rides and planes slowly filling with its unique inner color Quackity and Karl had seen so many times before. Quackity chuckled, rubbing at the tail in his hands firmly. He pulled his wings in so they didn’t get crushed by the warrior. If he noticed, Sapnap showed no reaction to it, squirming around and purring through his squeaky, flustered giggles. “Aww, who’s the cutest little Sappy Nap? You are!” Karl grinned, planting a kiss on the crown of his head. The blaze’s purrs only got louder. Sapnap peeked through his hair to look at him, fondness apparent in his expression. Gently massaging at the base of his horns again, he scribbled at the shell of his ear with a smile.
Quackity was not one to be outdone. “You might have him purring in your hands, Karl, but I swear I’ll make him roll over for me.” He quacked gently at the other, eyes narrowing and wings flaring with his challenge. Without waiting for his acceptance of the friendly challenge, the duck dove in, lunging onto Sapnap’s back and scribbling over his lower back indiscriminately. With his spare hand, he continued to rub at the now-limp tail, keeping the ‘poor’ warrior out of commission and fully unable to fight back.. Not that he wanted to. Sapnap was in a state of pure bliss, hybrid instincts keeping him content as the household’s current purr machine. As Quackity began to hone in on his spine, his back arched away from his fingers weakly. His tail whipped about a little, curling around the duck’s hand contentedly. “Naha-ahah! Plehehease!”
“Oh? Does our little blaze want more pets? What do you think, Quacks?”
“Oh, si. I think we can do this all night~”

Hello 👋🏻, can I have some headcanons for twisted Wonderland? The dorm leaders with an S/O who dresses in Lolita and has an outfit matching the dorm uniform?
This was so fun to write! I absolutely loved this request! I hope you enjoy this
The rest are under the cut because it's long
Enjoy!
Riddle 
Tumblr media
High key loves your style!
You look absolutely adorable with all of those frills and ruffles, fine lace and embroidered edges 
I think he'd be into classic lolita with lovely ruffled yet flowy sleeves and elegant shapes created by the skirts 
Would literally die if you got a cute lolita style dress based on his dorm uniform 
The layered, lace-lined skirt going down to your mid shin, the creamy color of the lace ruffling and accentuating the classic lolita shapes, the bottom of the final lace layer lined with a mate red fabric behind it adding color and dimension to the under skirt
The over skirt and top were like a renoncants painting of roses in red and dark maroon with specks of white as though they had been painted, a ruffly white neckline that covered both your shoulders was lined with soft lace, the same pattern of hearts  and dots as the lace of the bottom skirt. 
The neckline gave it an older fashioned look, the red bow tied perfectly around your neck the same patterned fabric as the red of riddles dom uniform, the slightly shiny patter that of spades, clovers, diamond, hearts, clubs, roses, and crowns all housed in diamond shaped stitching, The bow at your waistline was the same pattern fabric but far larger, the pleated ends stacking over each other and ending half way down the top skirt, the bows of your outfit were black on the right side and red on the left, just like riddles uniform.
Your sleeves were long and puffy, suddenly becoming tight and fitted about half way up your forearm 
The buttons and accents of the dress were gold, small golden pearls accenting the middle of the bows and gold stitching lining the outfit. 
The shoes were a shorter version of riddles shoes 
Riddle loved the outfit! He thought it suited you perfectly! And you look so much like his dorm unifor with it on 
He goes tomato red and stutters out a complement, he really likes it 
Leona
Tumblr media
Hes honestly kinda meh on the lolita look but he does think it makes his herbivore look extra cute 
Gets a big cocky grin when he sees you in one that is obviously made to mimic his dorm uniform,it makes him swell with pride 
The one he likes the most is definitely punk lolita 
The shirt you were under the skirt is long sleeved and a button up, it’s the same orangey brown as the shirt he wears in his dorm uniform and has the same patterns, the skirt part is layered in orange-yellow plaid fabric, black lace lining each layer. 
The skirt only goes down to right above your knees which shows off your stockings. The stockings are a deep brown color and are made to mimic the chaps that Leona wears.
Around your waist is a corset that doesn't cover your bust (so an underbust corset), its back but is decorated in gold accents of fangs and beads to resemble the necklace leona weres, also hanging from here is the savanaclaw bandana and some furry pelts. 
Over top you have a sleeveless leather jacket, the bottom hem and the sleeve area lined in black lace and decorated with more fang details 
Attached to the skirt from the inside is a fake lion tail and on top of your head is cat ears made to look like leonas
Leona likes this outfit on you, he feels like its a statement that your his little herbivore 
Azul 
Tumblr media
Alright so azul will be quietly gushing about how cute you look! You look so tiny and fragile and adorable- mafia octopus.exe has stopped working 
His mind is on overdrive when he sees you in a dress based on his dorm uniform, he's fanboying so much he stops thinking.
Head empty only cute s/o 
While he loves traditional lolita style, he also loves the look of sweet lolia 
The dress is about down to just above your knees, the bottom lined with black/dark purple lace, it isn't a layered skirt but is rather more pleated, the fabric is white and purple in a vertical pinstripe pattern with a horizontal stripe about one hand tall that wraps around the bottom of the skirt about half a hand up from the bottom. On the strip are illustrated seashells and various sea creatures including octopie.
Your sleeves are large and poofy cinching off at your wrist causing them to ruffle cutely. The front of the bust where it would button up is ruffled in white with cute silver buttons, a silver ribbon tied at your waist adding to the shape of the skirt.
The neckline is lined with silver ruffles in a blocky u-shape 
Your stockings are the same pattern as the dorm uniform, the purple base with wavy white lines in vertical stripes, little white dots between each white line, the difference is that these are a slightly lighter purple
Your shoes are the same as the dorm uniform except more bubbly and round to fit that sweet lolita vibe 
Azul may be calm and collected on the outside, save for that red blush, but on the inside he's freaking out, his heart is clenching and your giving him a little (huge) confidence boost
Kalim (the hard one to write)
Tumblr media
He loves it! He thinks his treasure (you) looks so cute in all of those frills and little pieces of jewelry 
His favorite is hime lolita aka princess lolita, he thinks you look absolutely stunning 
Practically vibrating with excitement when he sees you in an outfit resembling his dorm uniform 
The fabric was dusty red and white, the main part of the skirt was darker then the top part witch looped to give an extra dimension to the dress (think the poofy side things on cinderella's dress in the 90’s version) the dress was embroidered with mandala pattern as well as patterns of beautiful desert flowers all outlined in gold thread. 
The lace that adorned the hems of the dress were made to look the the almost lace tattoo patterns that kalim has and were done in white. 
The sleeves were long and poofy but were see through red, also adorned with the white tatto patterns in the same place kalim had them, while the sleeve closer to your wrist had gold embroidered flowers  
All of the bows on your dress were the same as kalims head band, the same pattern and gold trim, it even had the small feathers 
The jewelry you wore was the same style as kalim wore, evry hem of your dress had the almost coin like accessories and hanging ruby gems. Your earrings were of corse matching with kalim 
Kalim wont stop bragging and showing off how cute you are and how well you two match together! He really enjoys this style on you 
Vil 
Tumblr media
Vil simply adores your lolita style! He really thinks it suits you, such a cute little potato, his adorable apple blossom 
His favorite style to see you in is definitely Qi lolita 
Chokes ever so slightly when he sees you in something matching his dorm uniform, a tinge of blush peeks thru the foundation of his makeup 
The first layer of the under skirt was black, a rich black color that still allowed for shadows and dimension to form, the second layer of the underskirt was red and patterned with the shimmering pattern of poison apples and crown molding that lines vils dorm uniform. 
The top skirt and bust area are connected with the top skirt fanning out with large slits allowing the first layer of the underskirt to be seen 
The top skirt was the same bluish purple, almost plum color. Each panel-like section of the skirt is decorated in the flowey gold decal. 
The dresses' sleeves were the same as the ones on vils dorm uniform except lacking the tight fitting gloves so your arms were exposed. The tassels tied around your waist were far thinner as you were lacking the black fabric that is on the midsection of vil’s uniform. 
Two colden claps sat at the very top neck like holding it closed. 
The shoes that you wore were a slightly more rounded version of vil’s heels and also have a significantly shorter heel to them. 
Vil has a lot of pride and seeing you with your hair done up and your beautiful dress matching his own dorm uniform, it makes his pride even greater. 
He always insists on doing your makeup and hair for any outfit you do. 
Idia 
Tumblr media
Kjlhkubvyfutydrjbhvutcyr he loves it sosososososo much! You look like a cute anime girl- 
“Put on the maid outfit” jkjkjkj unless 
His favorite, while he likes all of them, is a cross between Qi, sweet, and gothic, so by the end it looks more like a cyber punk lolita than anything else 
This one goes down to just above your knee again and the bottom hem is lined in dark blue sheer fabric, the skirt itself is black, with silver/blue reflective patterns of flames, skulls (the ones he uses in battle/ that are on his tablet) so it looks silver but when it catches light it looks vibrant blue like his hair. Dark blue tool pools and drapes on the sides and sparkles slightly. The bust is made of a thicker material that mimics the jaket of idias dorm uniform with two centered lines of large, smooth, silver buttons. The top/bust is reflective black and blue like idias uniform, a bow sits in front, bright blue, its one of those neat double loop bows and the exces strands fall behind you mimicking the tails(??? Idk what they are) of idias uniform. 
The sleeves are black and sheer with blue reflective triangles. 
You have thigh highs that are black with a lacy blue hem and shiny bow in the center. To mimic idias little thigh guard thing (thigh highs were totally his idea) 
idia absolutely loves this, his brain blue screens for a moment before he teases you (flushed as hell btw) about how his cute little player two wanted to match with him (it was low-key his idea sksksks)
Malleus 
Tumblr media
Malleus is quite fond of your style! He thinks it makes all the more cute
Malleus loves that you would dress to match his dorm uniform, its a silent display that your his 
His favorite styles to see on you are shiro lolita and hime lolita, but for the sake of me, this is more of a gothic hime lolita 
 The top skirt is down to your mid shin, the style being hime(princess) lolita while in the color black, shining green thread embroidery, and lines each stitch, the neon green creating vivid pictures of dragons and spindles, black ruffles line the bottom and black tool is gathered and stung just above the bottom in a uuuuu fashion, the sleeves are a rococo style, being fitted black and falling out at the elbow, the sheer ruffles underneath the same lime green. The top is also black with green bows and silver clasps 
Your shoes are also black with green tips and small spindle ornaments as clasps 
Malleus thinks you are just the cutest thing dressed up in your style
He says it makes you look like a lovely doll, cute and fragile 
Seeing you dressed up to match his dorm uniform brings odd fire flies to his stomach,   he feels the need to not only protect you but also a strange feeling, possessiveness? Yes that's it, dragons are rather possessive you see, and having you dawned in close that are a silent proclamation that your his makes his heart sore 
Malleus would like to see you in more such outfits eventually 
-------------------------------------------------------
The end! 。・:*:・゚★,。・:*:・゚☆.・。.・゜✭・

I hope you enjoy!!

I love hearing people complain about the Raptor Squad designs and colorations and the variations and inaccuracies in a way that seems to defend the movie’s color schemes. 
Because, frankly:
Tumblr media
The designs weren’t that great. 
I love them all dearly, but this shot is honestly the easiest-to-identify set (left-to-right, clockwise: Charlie, Echo, Delta, Blue).
Let’s break it down:
Blue obviously has the best design because she’s the Main Character. She’s got a blue stripe which makes it easy to tell when she’s on-screen, her name matches her distinguishing feature, she’s gray overall, she’s a 10/10 design. 
Charlie is my second-favorite, but also the start of the problems: green raptor with black stripes and white jagged lines providing highlights. Not too shabby, especially because she has a distinctive lime-green coloration (in this bright light, anyway...more on that later).
Delta is a blue-green color...witrh a blue spot on her eyes and (I think) stripes on her back. Again, this is where it gets complicated: I’ve watched the movie time and time again, I’ve played with her in video games, I’ve got her toy in the other room (the good one!), and I can’t give a solid description of what she looks like. She often gets mixed up with Charlie when I’m tracking them in scenes because her color is similar. 
Tumblr media
I mean, look at this picture. She’s practically gray. I would almost think she’s Echo, what with the reddish tint in this shot. 
Thankfully, Echo is a different color...a red-brown-black mottled mix...but, frankly, Echo’s color is kind of ugly. 
Tumblr media
And here’s where the problem comes in: that random patterning. 
When I was a kid, if you told me to draw a raptor, I could whip out a scary-looking predator with stripes on the back and tail because that’s what the toys and movie designs shot toward. It became even more pronounced in the sequel with those tiger-striped raptors. Even the feathered boys in the threequel had their own distinct look, and that spotted gray female was really distinct. 
Ask a kid to draw Blue, and they should be able to make it obvious that it’s her, even without colors: that jagged stripe along her body, running from her eyes to her tail, gives her a LOOK.
The other three raptors? Nah. Again, maybe you can show off Charlie with the stripes, maybe you can do Delta with the eyespots, but Echo? I can’t replicate that pattern immediately. There’s nothing distinctive. 
Tumblr media
I mean, maybe kinda-sorta with the “dark top of the head and bright bottom”, but then THAT can get mixed up with Delta as soon as the lighting changes. There’s a whole scene of them running in the dark where you can’t tell them apart. 
Now, I’m not saying that they should have all been running around with one having spade-shaped markings, one with clubs, and another with diamonds...but I feel like they each should have had something Distinct, like the blue stripe. Maybe more prominent scars on Echo (she has them, but not really in anything beyond the movie and promo stills), like a Lion-King-esque eye scratch. Maybe give Charlie a stubby tail because Echo bit the tip of it off, and give Delta some patterns flaring from her eyes to her nostrils. 
Again, I get why the designs ended up being what they were: they WERE still distinctive, and the franchise wasn’t expected to be THAT big, so it wasn’t like they were thinking of creating a Power Rangers Team....but, still. 
(Also, I like the Camp Cretaceous Echo design--it looks a LOT like the Tiger Raptors, so it’s a ltitle more generic, but it feels better than this...
Tumblr media
...I mean, check her out:
Tumblr media
...the tiger stripes make her feel more old-school, like she’s an ECHO of what came before). 
Anyway, that’s just my take.

10. Heady
The tension in the air around the well-worn card table was thick.
Almost as thick as the unknowable contents of the pitcher that stood in the dead center of the table like a monolith, a grim monument to the indescribable hooch it contained.
The mysterious booze, known only to the world as Shroud Serum, was a swirling mix of greens that seemed to twist and shimmer iridescently in the warm light of the dive bar, as if of its own volition. It stood, a living testament to the evening’s reverie, half-drained by this point— the rest of its contents was currently burning through the guts and sobriety both of the six figures gathered around it in a loose circle, on mismatched wooden stools. As the turn order progressed, every eye settled at once on Addifore, looking ever so slightly ruffled off of his proper poise by the churn of the liquor. (Well, except for the eyes of Pim and Remeraux, whose swimming visions were currently focused on ‘discerning how exactly Pim’s long, dextrous tail got wound so tightly around their stool’ and ‘focusing in drunken panic on their floor based vantage point’, respectively.)
With one fluid movement, the Duskwight man swiped a card from the haphazard pile strewn chaotically around the pitcher, and laid it flat on top of the table with a slap. Martin’s Shroud-green eyes lit up as the two of spades stared up at the party. Addifore just winced. “Oh.” “Mystery tonic, eh…?” A lazy, devilish smirk stretched across Remeraux’s face. With Pim rescued from their stool prison, she stumbled back to her own seat and let gravity drop her into it with a thump. Tilting her head, she set her sights on the particularly pink Miqo’te perched cozily in Renaux’s lap, with a conspiratorial wink. “Righ’, Martin. Whatcha got on tap?”
Their small brown hands excitedly sign out [I’ve been working on fizzy whiskey! Now you have to try it,] before giddily clapping, while the color drained from Addifore’s face.
Renaux chuckled, shooting his partner a look while he blanches. (Remeraux Melret, Renaux Mercier. That was a fun duo of names to have around the card table as more and more alcohol was imbibed.) “Didn’t he say whiskey makes him an arse, though…?”
His reward, for that comment, was a withering look from a man who looked quite accustomed to giving them.
[He’d be an arse regardless,] Martin signs, his expression making it read as if it was a rote statement of fact instead of a dig at their two-drawing friend, [but this is bubbling! It’s meant to make you giggly ‘cause it tickles.] They hop to their feet from Renaux’s lap and mosey across the room to go rummaging behind the unfathomably well-stocked bar of the Still and Strings. They retrieve from it a bottle of amber liquid, unlabeled except for a marker scrawl that says Fizzy Whiskey 2.5. They uncap it with a pop! sound that reverberates through the room, and a haze of vapor begins to swirl from the bottle’s mouth along with a veritable surge of carbonation. Everyone regarded it, from their respective perches around the table, as it was placed down into the center, right by the veritable tombstone that was the Shroud Serum pitcher. Into its mysterious confines were poured looks of confusion. Suspicion. Anticipation. Four of those eyes, however, lit up with devious interest— two violets, two citrines.
“Oh… I wan’ t’ try tha’.” Sif drawled in that road-warmed tone of hers, looking at the bottle fuming like a volcanic spring as one would regard a plunge from the high rocks down into a swimming hole. Well, the way one would if they weren’t chicken, anyways.
“Aye, come on! I’ll take one wif ya too, Addi.” Remeraux chimed in after, Brume accent thickening from syrup to quicksand under the weight of all that liquor. She was never one to be outdone. If there was a mystery drink anywhere, she had to pound it down. That was just the kind of gal she was. No matter how many shots of the foul punch were already squirming around her insides, or how vision swam like she was still out at sea. Martin, despite the card's demands that only the card drawer suffer the penalty, ended up pouring everyone a round of the ominously fizzing whiskey. Every one of those hands went to examine its contents, as the liquid even still managed to gurgle and churn, sending the rock of ice in the center of each squat glass dancing and clinking to and fro.
Addifore regarded it as one would a venomous snake. More specifically, as a venomous snake you’ve been ordered to kiss on the lips. “Really don’t want to…” He muttered, his words muffled and reverberated into the glass as it sat reluctantly against his lips. Relenting, finally, Addifore let the tiniest trickle of it through that sullen gateway. He turned green the second it touched his tongue. “Righ’ then, bottoms up!” Remeraux’s voice is the next to cut in, as she gripped the glass in one gloved hand and slugged the whole thing down in one go. Just as quickly, she started coughing and wheezing, as the carbonated alcohol bubbled and burned when a little of it diverted down into her lungs instead of sliding down her throat.
Martin looks dismayed at the reactions beginning to percolate from around the table. [Is it okay…?] they sign with fingers unsure, hesitant.
“It’s… S’good, Martin! Jus’... Jus’ went down the wrong pipe.”
The pure, high pitched squeak of Remeraux's voice as it left her throat left everyone at the table dumbfounded.
Sif blinked. Once. Twice. And then she howled with laughter. “Yer VOICE. It’s⁠— Oh, Twelve.” Sif, too, sounded like she was trying to imitate a squirrel.
There was a moment where both of them just stared blankly at each other, silent as the grave. Then, Remeraux’s lips wiggled, and before she knew it she erupted into laughter, high pitched and giggling and absolutely punctuated with a snort or two. “ Your v-voice, Sif!!” She started slapping her knee, as the two travelers descended completely into a horrible giggling echo chamber. Addifore looked on at the two of them in terror.
“I gotta try this!” Pim knocked back their own drink, their voluminous pink hair bouncing back from the gesture, and immediately went for the highest note they could muster. It was one positively soared right through the stratosphere. It was a refrain that Renaux was all too eager to join in as he chugged his own fizzy whiskey down, and let his gravelly bass fly on wings of whiskey up to an operatic soprano.
Martin sipped. Addifore sipped. A high pitched eep! escaped mouths that were quickly clamped down, and that reaction alone sent the two women at the table, who were finally beginning to push through the end of their giggling fits, right back down into an inescapable hell of laughter.
Remeraux’s head was spinning, swimming, swirling from the laughter, the liquor, the lack of oxygen. But the helium in their drinks was not the only thing that night making her feel lighter than a feather. And when Sif said she couldn’t remember the last time she’d laughed that hard, Remeraux regarded the friendly faces around the table, and wiping tears of laughter from the corners of her eye, couldn’t help but agree.
--------------------
OOC: This was based on an incredible moment from a group RP. All the characters besides Rem belong to their respective authors.

Part two 2/2 hahahahaha
"Alright he we go!" Tommy yelled as he stood in the middle of the room toeing off his shoes.
"Don't wanna destroy those, anyway I'll start small but some of traits get big so stay to the sides of the room okay!"
What does he mean some of them???- Tubbo didn't have any time to think as when he looked back to Tommy sudden bright light made him blink in surprise. After a moment he looked back to Tommy.
What.
Tommy now had a pair of red horns, a long red spade tail, pointed ears and teeth and slit pupils. He gave a quick spin showing off the new features and laughing at the twos dumb struck reactions.
"This is the first form I picked up, don't know where though. Next is a more recent one!" Tommy gave another spin and in a blink the long thin tail was replaced with a bushy raccoon tail and his pointed ears fluffed up along with moving to the the top of head. His legs bent more at the knee and turned to brown paws instead of feet and his nails turned into more like claws, also darkening. His teeth stayed the same but a fuzzy mask settled over his eyes which had turned pitch black all the way down to his scealas.
"I got this one during the time I lived under Techno's house, but it could've been Pogtopia too..." Tommy shook the sad look off his face and began to spin again.
"This one's a bit older, and I like it a lot less." By the time he faced the two again Ranboo gasped.
Tommy had turned in piglin hybrid, looking a lot like Techno. He had tusks, floppy elf-like ears, hooves where paws were, and a curly pigs tail tuffed with gold hair when turned a bit. His eyes had also lost their darkness but had turned a shocking red.
"I can also do a full and nearly human piglin but it brings back, memories..." Tubbo and Ranboo nodded not wanting to make him more uncomfortable.
"These next three are where this fire proof floor comes in handy." Now that was a tad alarming but the couple were ready with water buckets of it came down to it.
The next spin was accented but the click of hooves turned into an unsettling lava like sound. Tommy had also gotten shorter with this rotation, most likely because he lost hight with losing the hooves.
The next form was odd. This one had no tail and only slightly pointed ears and teeth but was got Tubbo's attention the most was Tommy's legs and arms. The looked like cracking and molten lava and crawled up just below his elbows and knees. His eyes had gone back to their normal blue but seemed to be glowing as he let off small sparks and embers.
"A magma cube?" Ranboo's voice cut through the warm silence as Tommy nodded.
"Yep, helps me get through the Nether when I'm alone." Oh. Oh. Tommy shook his head and began to spin again
"This is a big one!" He yelled as more light blasted through the room. "Okay, look!"
Behind Tommy were wings. But not just any wings, pheniox wings. The bright reds, oranges, yellows and even white and gold were bright, almost blinding. Below the wings were tail feathers of the same colors. Tommy's arms, legs and face were back to normal but bunches of feathers were in place of his ears.
"Whoa big man! You're a fire chicken!"
"HEY!"
Tommy shock off his anger the temperature in the room raising a tad.
"Anyway, this next form was a gift." That made the two hybrids pause and look at each other. A gift? As the heard Tommy finish turning they looked back and we're breathless.
Tommy looked godly. He was covered in freckle-like stars as his hair seemed to float around him slightly making the white streaks like like shooting stars. His eyes stayed the same but held a calmer, cooler glow to them as his stars shined a bright yellow slowly moving to a more pinky color as he noticed to two staring.
"This was a gift from Clara, the Goddess of space," the two stood in shock, a goddess? "Anyway I think I have two more forms." They nodded as their thoughts still raced.
Tommy spun as his hair fell back down. The next form was more unsettling if Tubbo was honest.
Tommy for the most part looked undead. His eyes were duller and had no shine, bruises and more scars than he could count littered his body, his right eye and upper side of his face was bloody, bruised and blinded. Tubbo nearly cried at the last detail. Two almost black hand shaped bruises wrapped around his neck and smaller finger prints covered his arms. Tubbo then realized he had seen this form before. It was what he saw when Tommy got out of the prison, and whenever he's respawn but only for a moment.
"This one I like to call 'undead', pretty fitting aye?" Tommy chuckled darkly seeing his both friends close to tears. "Okay, this is the last one besides the siren form I gotta have hella water for."
Instead of spinning Tommy jumped up and when his feet touched the floor again he looked completely human if you discounted his pointed ears and teeth.
"You look completely normal bossman? Where's the difference?" Tommy chuckled and took off his bandana to show a brand on his neck. Tubbo couldn't get a good read on what it said before he put it back on.
"I was born in a lab dipshit, also this is my normal form anyway. But I can do this." He reached up to his face and Tubbo heard an almost click like sound before Tommy took his face off like a fucking mask. To say he screamed was an understatement. With a this sound beside him he's pretty sure that was Ranboo falling in shock.

Simon Snow-Devil
Okay to start off, it's important to clarify that a lot of what I’m about to say is based on things that have already been said by @adamarks in their exceptional and numerous metas (if you haven't read them!! Make haste!!), but the cliff notes version is this;
Simon’s wings are both metaphorically and psychologically tied to his queerness throughout both Carry On and Wayward Son
Yeah okay that's mostly it 
Oh right, he’s going to turn into a dragon and live forever with baz 
So! Let's get a wiggle on about it babes!
Simon says he thinks he gave himself dragon wings because he was thinking about the dragon that breached Watford, but I call bullshit, at least partially. Simon’s wings get a lot of coverage, but I want to talk about his tail. Even back when Carry On first came out, the tail never sat right with me, it doesn’t seem to have a purpose, like the wings do. It’s an afterthought, even to Simon. He retells Penny’s speech about how his wings didn’t just disappear after he lost his magic, then tacks on, “I still have the tail too.”  
But the tail is important. 
 After all, Simon is notoriously Not self-aware. You know who pays excellent attention to Simon Snow? Baz, or course, and also Penny. Neither of them thought Simon looked like a dragon. 
“He looked like Satan incarnate. Massive red-and-black wings. A red tail with a black spade at the end. He’d cast some sort of spell on himself that made him glow yellow and orange” 
“She thought Simon was possessed, or enchanted, or that he had gone full Lucifer.” 
The first (chronological) mention of Simon and his wings is at the end of sixth year, when he and Penny escape the humdrum. This usually goes unnoticed for some sad reason and that, my friends, is criminal. 
“Big boney wings burst out of his back. Sort of wings. Misshapen and overly feathered with too many joints…” 
So just to clarify, Simon tried to give himself feathered wings. Wings with feathers. Who has feathered wings? Yes, birds, but also, angles. Angles have feathered wings. Oh ho ho! Now we been knew about Rainbow Rowell’s religious symbolism, but this is really quite something. 
Simon Snow goes from seeing himself as angelic to seeing himself as demonic. A lot happens in between these two incidents but most notably is probably Baz (and also Agatha). Bare with me. 
We all know Simon and Baz are really lost in the sauce as fare as internalized homophobia goes, but their whole enemies to lovers thing is what really sets the tension in motion. In the space between Simon’s two transitions he has gone from having a Beautiful Fairytale Ending with Agatha who is the perfect fairytale princess (“Aren’t they every shade of white and gold”) to having some sort of strange hook up with his sworn vampire enemy, who happens to be a boy. 
He was feeling like a bit of a fuck up. 
Later on, the Devil/Dragon wings reappear as Simon is about to offer himself up to be killed by his father figure!! I don’t think all that shit in the final battle of Carry On get’s unpacked very much, but Simon was in a Very Dark Place!! It’s likely that the wings are tied at least subconsciously to some of these memories for him. Of course, they’re also the only thing that makes him magikal anymore. 
That encounter with Maggie on the Rockies was very telling, she sees him in his half-in half-out state and calls him “an abomination” which goes to show that Simon is still in his “Devil Wings'' stage, but it does seem that Simon may become a dragon. Maggie certainly seemed to think it was an option. 
This will require from him the reclamation and reframing of his wings and tail as well as processing the circumstances under which he got them, but hell, we all wanted that for him anyway. 
(It’s also just downright amazing that for the entire time they have known each other Baz has been reminding Simon that dragons are good magical beasts, since with any level of luck Baz will end up literally with a dragon boyfriend)
But yeah, That's why I think Simon feels so shit about the wings. He still thinks they might be devil wings.

anyway I need to go to bed but I have too much energy so I am channeling it into headcanons. here u go species headcanons for Everyone on the Dream smp with explanations because I’ve put a TON of thought into this. They’re probably like half contradicted by canon but fuck it My City Now.
Dream- A (juvenile) stage of being a god. He, DreamXD, and Drista have become known as “dreamons” but that’s technically a separate species, all spawned from them. He's not really focused on being worshipped in his own right, preferring power in the mortal realm, though he’s not averse to pretending to be his brother (the god worshipped by Church Prime) or his sister (a minor goddess of death worshipped by many hidden cults) if it can help him get power. He’s got pure white skin everywhere except his face (which is pale but human-like), black blood, entirely green eyes, pointed ears, fangs, claws, and digitigrade legs ending in hoof-like claws.
George- A human, the only human on the whole server. Humans are pretty rare, vastly outnumbered by hybrids but outnumbering any other species, and “pure” humans (what we'd consider to be a completely normal appearing human) are all but nonexistent. For example, George has eyes with dark sclera and white irises.
Sapnap- A blaze hybrid. He’s got a few rods surrounding him and his eyes blaze with fire. It’s usually just warm but not hot enough to hurt but if he's agitated or upset it can easily burn hot enough to set things ablaze.
Callahan- A reindeer hybrid. He’s got antlers, reindeer ears, fur around his arms, and hooves.
Awesamdude- A creeper hybrid. He's tauric, with four insect like legs. His skin and is green and mottled and has a texture similar to leaves. His eyes are pitch black. He has a tendency to make hissing sounds when stressed, though he can’t explode like a full blooded creeper.
Alyssa- A mouse hybrid, with large mouse ears and a long tail. This definitely isn’t an in joke for the thousands of hours I spent browsing TVTropes as a child and the “what happened to the mouse” tROPE SHUT UP.
Ponk- A demon hybrid, with pointed ears, slit pupils, a small spaded tail, and small horns.
BadBoyHalo- A full blooded demon, with pointed ears, a tall stature, pitch black skin and hair, fangs, claws, hooves, a long spaded tail, long horns, and small bat like wings. He’s rather self conscious about how intimidating he looks. He's also a lich (with Skeppy as his phylactery) which is why he has pure white eyes (a trait the undead share).
TommyInnit- An absolute mess, genetic wise, since I’m taking Tommy's joke about being born in a lab and running with it. He's mostly angel, and was basically cloned from Phil's DNA (from a feather that fell off his wings that somehow someone got a hold of) but had a bunch of other hybrid and human DNA mixed in to make him somewhat stable enough to actually survive gestation. He has very small, dark wings that are useful for balance and little else, fangs, claws, and pointed ears. His bones are very light, making him fragile but a lot more dexterous. His blood is slightly off a human's, being slightly pinkish. His freckles, wings, blood, and eyes glow slightly and are patterned like the night sky. Technically undead as of his resurrection, and maintains the many injuries of his death permanently (bruises stay and don’t heal but don’t worsen, broken limbs can be moved at unnatural angles, ect.), pale, corpse like skin, and one of his eyes turned pure white.
Tubbo- A ram hybrid, with small curved ram horns, horizontal pupils, ram ears, a tail, and hooves. Nice and simple after the absolute mess that was Tommy.
Fundy- A limited shapeshifter, able to change his species, though he prefers to be in a fox-like form. He inherited this from Sally, who had similar abilities, though with more strength. He's always got certain features he inherited from each parent that he can’t change though- wings, pale skin, and ice-like freckles from Wilbur, and salmon scales coating his wings and cheeks, and ginger-and-white hair from Sally.
Punz- A dragon hybrid, with dark horns, dark sclera and slit pupils, wings just large enough for limited flight, a strong tail, fangs, claws, and blue scales coating his cheeks, wings, tail, arms, and legs. Has a natural inclination to sleep in a pile of his wealth he only holds off on when he feels it’s at risk of being stolen (which, since this is the Dream SMP, is almost constantly).
Purpled- An enderman hybrid, with small horns, pointed ears, purple blood, and ender particles surrounding him. Parts of his arms and legs are covered in leathery, pure black skin.
Wilbur- Half angel, half fucking refrigerator because cc!Wilbur hates us (affectionate). His skin is unnaturally, icy pale, and his blood is an icy blue. His freckles are the colour of ice reflecting. He's got wings from his father, large enough to glide, but they’re pale coloured and slightly transparent. He has fangs claws, and pointy ears. His blood, wings, and eyes glow slightly and are patterned like the night sky. As Ghostbur, he’s got the injuries of his death apparent at all times, though they don’t hinder him or cause him pain, corpse like skin, pure white eyes, and is permanently transparent.
JSchlatt- A ram hybrid. He’s got large ram horns, dark sclera and horizontal pupils, a ram tail, fur around his arms, and hooves.
Skeppy- A construct made to be Bad's phylactery. He's fully made of diamond, and appears as a moving human statue (though entirely made out of diamond), though he has limited shape shifting ability to change his “hair” and “clothes”, though he has to remain the same mass. He has some small red detailing on him out of redstone (which was used partially in his contruction). The egg flipped the red and teal in his colour scheme. Also he's smalllllllllllll.
Eret- Part ghost, due to being descended from Herobrine. She has pure white eyes, pointy ears, and under stress he becomes partially transparent. They tend to hide their nonhuman features (ears under hair or hats and eyes under sunglassses) and are often mistaken for human.
Jack Manifold- Started as a wolf hybrid, with large wolf ears and a tail. After dying, he came back from hell as a hellhound with red and blue “flames” coming from his eyes, ears, and replacing his missing tail he lost in one of his deaths with two made of this fire. The fire is chillingly cold to the touch, and not warm. His eyes are also monocolour, though in heterochromatic red and blue instead of the usual pure white found in undead.
Niki- A moth hybrid, with antennae, monocolour amber eyes, fluffy wings, and more fluff around her neck, wrists, and torso. These and her hair are patterned gold and black, though as of now she’s dyed them all pink. Idk I just feel like moths fit her for some reason.
Quackity- A duck hybrid, with golden wings and webbed hands and feet. He’s also a shapeshifter of sorts, however instead of shifting into different forms he shifts into different beings, from alternate realities that never came to be. These can be used to shift into near identical copies of those around him, to impersonate them, or to shift into alternate versions of people (like Mexican Dream to Dream). These aren’t Quackity, though, and as such they have their own pool of canon lives, and while he has lots of influence over them they can still act autonomously.
Karl Jacobs- An inter dimensional being made of time itself. While his current form is mostly human, he has technicolour rainbow blood, freckles, and patches on his skin, along with clock-shaped pupils that change with the time. His “natural” form is a vaguely humanoid mess of ever shifting colour.
HBomb- I didn’t know what to do with him at first- he was a cow hybrid in my pfp set- but I just think the idea of him being a chill cat hybrid who turns full nyaa whenever he’s in a maid dress to be funny so he’s a cat hybrid now. With dyed-white cat ears and a dyed-white cat tail.
Technoblade- A piglin hybrid primarily, but he’s definitely got some weird traces of other species. He’s got tusks, pink hair, pink pig ears, a pig tail, and hooves, but he’s also got paws from some other animal hybridisation in his blood, and has a tallness that suggests demon blood somewhere down the line. His red eyes aren’t natural, and only occurred after he was sacrificed to be the vessel of the Blood God.
Antfrost- A cat hybrid, with blond and brown fur, a cat tail, paws both on his hands and feet, and cat ears. He’s also got split pupils and blue sclerae (though a different shade to his irises).
Philza- An angel- the creation of a god or goddess to help serve them (Dreamon's would be an example of the angels the Dream's can create, though they’re primarily running wild nowadays.) The creation and servant of one of the gods of death, Kristen, to serve her in the mortal realm. He’s got very large feathered dark wings, pupilless unnaturally bright eyes, pointy ears, fangs, claws, and dark blood the colour of the night sky. His wings, eyes, freckles and blood glow brightly and are patterned like the night sky. Injuries reveal that he's fully inhuman under his skin, appearing to be a void of colour that also glows and is patterned like the night sky. His crows, who are messengers from the afterlife, have this same pattern on their feathers.
Conner- I don’t know much about him tbh but. He’s just a hedgehog hybrid. I mean he’s joked enough about canonically being the kid of Sonic and Elise. He’s got blue hedgehog ears and a tail, and blue spines mixed in with his dark hair.
Captain Puffy- A sheep hybrid, with small curled sheep horns, sheep ears, a fluffy sheep tail, hooves, and hair curly and soft like wool. The split in her hair between brown and white is natural, though she keeps a small section dyed rainbow.
Vikkstar- Another angel, though of a god long gone. His entire body, even his “clothes” (which are made of flesh) glow intensely bright and have the pattern of the night sky.
LazarBeam- A gingerbread hybrid, which I’d say is dumb but we’ve already had a refrigerator hybrid so. I don’t know what else to say here.
Ranboo- Half enderman, half god of some sort. Has small horns, pointy ears, an inhumanly wide mouth with fangs, claws, digitigrade feet ending in hoof-like claws, pure black and white skin, pure black and white hair and freckles on the opposite side of the skin, red and green heterochromatic eyes barely distinguishable from their sclera, and red and green blood. Hmm, I wonder what other character shares similar descriptions... :)
FoolishG- A more matured god than Dream. Appears to be made entirely out of gold, with his hair and freckles appearing like copper. His pure green eyes have a similar texture to emeralds. Also he’s like. Massive. He’s like eleven Skeppy's.
Hannah- A nymph of the forests. Has prehensile vines and flowers flowing in her hair all the way to the ground, and half of her face and one of her arms are entirely made of these prehensile vines and flowers. Makes flowers grow in her step, after being corrupted by the egg they wither around her instead.
Charlie- Slime hybrid. Honestly just kind of got the most impractical parts of being a hybrid, having random sections of skin changed into green slime which drips everywhere and kind of gets in the way. It doesn’t seem to bother him though.
