I want to believe this is how they found Hunter

[acherontiarchivist]

Hii! So the reader some how, some way, meets our boy Gabe. And they’re really into men with sexy long hair and yummy voices and the reader is just like mmmmm oooooo ahhhhh

And Gabe is just standing there like 🧍“ Bitch, be so fucking fr.”

Hiiiiii, thanks for the ask! I went with a kinda mixture of Gabriel being totally fucking oblivious and also not believing anyone could see him that way. He comes around, though :) thanks for your patience, Anon, and I hope you enjoy the fic!!!

Warnings: people being mean to Gabriel, reader is also kind of an asshole to Gabe ngl, mentions of masturbation, unsolicited flirtation by the reader, mentions of choking kink

Closing shifts were always your favorite. Your other coworkers hated them with a passion, and always asked to switch your morning shifts with their nights. At first they would give excuses along the lines of having to attend their kids' baseball games or attending family events, but that quickly fell through when you pointed out that they both couldn't possibly be that busy every closing shift.

"OK, You got me. Honestly, I'm surprised it took you this long to protest. You're definitely braver than us." Del was restocking the freezer with novelty ice cream bars as you sent reminder texts to renters informing them of their upcoming due dates and waited for a customer to ring.

"What do you mean? " you replied, smacking on a thick wad of hubba bubba between pauses, "I'm just saying if you guys don't like closing I'm more than happy to talk to the boss about scheduling me for the late shifts."

"You- you like the closing shift?" He seemed too astonished to multitasking, as he'd almost dropped a box onto the floor.

"Yeah, it's pretty easy, and I'm more of a night owl anyway."

"Wait, so you haven't noticed anyone… unusual coming in on your night shifts?" His hands were now too preoccupied on carrying the conversation than work.

"No? Just the same regulars that rent a porno and grab a few beers. They never make any advances on me, and I don't really give a fuck about their purchases." You continued to pay just as much attention as you had been to your work task.

"No, no, that's not what I mean." He shook his head and pointed to you, earning you a slight glance in acknowledgement.

"Well, what do you mean?" What else could he possibly mean?

He sighed, " Well, there's this… guy?" He gestured vaguely, "Eh, that comes in every now and again. He always wears this big ass trench coat, smells like pennies and has this fucked up face."

You turned your head to the side and sucked a bubble inside your cheek, "That's a bit rude."

"Hey, if you saw the guy, you'd agree. Anyway, I don't like him, and he makes Fernanda uncomfortable. Besides, he never buys anything. Just walks in, stares at this section or that, stands there for minutes at a time, and eventually leaves. And he scares other customers away!"

"Have you ever talked to him? Customer service is part of our job, you know."

"Nahhhhh, fuck that." He turned back to his task at hand.

You rolled your eyes, "It would get him out of the store quickly. And make us some money."

"Well, sounds like you can handle him perfectly well yourself. Don't come crying to us when you're stuck with all the night shifts and eventually run into that guy."

"You're so melodramatic. I doubt it's anywhere near as bad as you make it out. Y'all have probably already ran him off with your shit people skills, given that I haven't ran into this guy the entire two weeks I've been here."

"Oh, shit. I hadn't thought of that." He had stopped a moment to think, then looked at you and shrugged.

"No take-backsies. Night shift's mine."

It was another two weeks before you finally saw him enter the store. You had already taken care of clean up and restocking routines as usual and were left with most of your shift to act busy until it was time for closing. This time was perfect for getting a little bit of drawing done between customers, your boss didn't mind as long as you made a few sales throughout the night. You were so focused on your drawing that you hadn't noticed him enter. He was quiet, the only thing that tipped you off to his presence was the smell of pennies that Del had warned you about. When you looked up, he was standing in front of the miniscule horror selection, his back towards you, head almost entirely obscured by a tall standing collar reminiscent of something one might see a villain clad in a noir or giallo film. It took you just a moment to muster up the courage to approach him.

"Can I help you find something today?"

There was a moment of silence, almost as if he were hesitating, then a nearly unnoticeable nod, careful to obscure his face behind his messy dark strands.

You glanced at the titles before you, considering what might fall into his taste. "If you're on the hunt for a horror recommendation, you've found the right person to help." You ignored the fact that you were the one who approached him. After a moment of careful contemplation, you grabbed two movies, one to your left and one you had to excuse yourself to grab in front of him.

"We don't have a huge selection right now, but these are two classic giallo films I think you might find an interest in," you showed him Deep Red and The Bird With The Crystal Plumage. "Oh! Actually, I have one more recommendation from our thrillers."

He observed the covers of each DVD before flipping them over and reading the back as you perused the adjacent aisle.

"Here it is!" You grabbed the movie and brought it to him. "No Country For Old Men is more of a personal favorite," you said, pointing at the 'Employee Picks' poster by the register, "but I have a feeling you'd like it, too."

He studied the back of that case as well. The opportunity to peek at his face while he was distracted was not wasted. Admittedly, he was an individual that oozed mystique. When he caught you staring you tried to deflect with more customer service as an excuse.

"Um, if you like, we have rental versions. So you can watch them all before you commit to buying any." There was no way he hadn't caught you blushing. "I'll just give you a few minutes to think about it," you said, hiding behind the register once again. He was silent approaching the register with the rental copies of the movies you had shown him and through the completion of the transaction.

"The rentals are due on the 25th, you're all good to go."

He nodded and turned for the door.

"See you in two weeks," you smiled, and he was gone.

The next two weeks were uneventful, just you counting down every day until the 25th of the month. In the meantime, you badgered your boss to expand the selection of horror films and thought of what to show him next time he came through. When the day finally came your coworkers noticed how unusually chipper you were, and you brush it off as it being your weekend after today. The night turned late without any sign of him, and you worried that he returned the videos earlier in the day, or on a night you didn't work. Just as you were losing hope and thinking of closing a few minutes early, a call rang the store phone.

"Hello, thank you for calling Marty's Movies and Munchies. How can I help you tonight?"

The voice on the other line was strained and slow at first, deep and raspy in a way you found incredibly sexy. "Are you closed? I need to return some videos. I'm a bit later than I expected to be."

You lean in to the counter, feeling generous enough (and hopeful that he'll come by) to let the sexy-voiced customer in after close. Not like you had plans, anyway. "Nope, you still have about ten minutes 'till doors close, but since you called ahead I'll give you an additional ten minute grace period. Any later than that and you'll have to bring it in tomorrow and pay a small late fee."

"No need, I'm already here."

Before you could question the caller, the ringing of the bell hung above the door caught your attention. Immediately, you recognized the gangly form of the man your coworkers had not-so-affectionately dubbed The Creeper. Your gaze lingered on him, trying to get another glance at his piercing eyes through the curtain of hair that he made sure masked his face. He must have picked up on it and became self conscious, as he pulled his high collar up and sunk further behind its shadow. Odd enough, but you also noticed that he didn't appear to be holding a cell phone.

Feeling particularly brave, and maybe a bit too confident, you leaned over the counter and smiled at him, "So that's what you sound like, huh?"

His posture noticeably stiffened.

"Or is it a voice modulator? Either way, it's kinda sexy."

"Just…return these, will you?" It was quite cute how he would avert his eyes and take half a step back out of embarrassment. You didn't take him for the shy type.

Though he stumbled over every word, you had forgotten the landlines propped between your head and shoulder and the sudden noise in your ear made you jump back. "Yeah, sure thing."

"And," he hesitated for a moment, "I think I would like to purchase my own videos."

"Ok, DVD or blu-ray?" You already had them picked out and waiting for him under the counter, and held them out for him to choose.

"I… don't know the difference."

"You don't know which you have?"

He looked embarrassed and almost shrank right where he stood, "I watch them on my sister's device."

"Well does she have movies like this," you shook the bigger case in your left hand, "or this?" shaking then the smaller blue case.

"Both?" Incredible. You had no idea how anyone could just not know the difference.

"OK, I'm choosing for you," you said, stuffing a plastic shopping bag with blu-ray copies of each film. "You're getting blu-ray. They're better."

"What if I'm wrong? Will a DVD player work with these movies?"

His questions were honestly the most interesting ones you would get from customers, even if just for the sheer unawareness he had demonstrated in... pretty much everything. "Jesus Christ dude. Have you been living under a rock for the past 25 years or something?"

"Something like that," he answered a bit too readily, "And a bit longer."

You blinked and chose to ignore the statement. He was weird, odd looking, brooding, and now, obviously, a bit socially inept. God, he just became more and more your type, and you were dying to score. "Well," you started, "DVD players are the older video player and therefore not backwards compatible, but blu-ray players can play both. If your sister has both kinds of movies, she most likely has a blu-ray player, but," you wrote your number on a notepad kept at the counter and tore the page off, sliding it into the bag with his purchase, "if you have any questions or run into any problems you can call me. I might just let you come over and use mine." You ended with a wink to give it what you hoped was an extra layer of obvious courtship.

"Why would I use your device? I'll just buy my own." He pulled out a loose debit card from the right pocket of his coat and shoved it in your direction expectantly.

You sighed and took his debit card, ignoring your initial glance at the name– certainly not the name he had given for his customer account– then prepared to slide the card through the reader. "God, you are oblivious," you rolled your eyes. "Ok, your total is–"

"Wait," he quickly interrupted, then hesitated for a fraction of a second, "I want to rent another movie."

Of course! You had forgotten the movie you had previously selected for him. "Anything in mind?"

"I trust your judgment."

Your grin couldn't be wider as you grabbed the last rental copy of Possession from your 'Employee Picks' cubby. "You'll love this one. I feel a particular kinship with Isabelle Adjani's character, Anna. I think you'll like her too." With that, you rang up his total and saw him out the door.

By the time he left it was fifteen minutes past closing and you had to rush to finish up routines. You couldn't wait to brag to your coworkers that you had made a big sale to The Creeper. There wasn't much time to revel in your victory and plan your next move, however, because he had returned the following night. As it turns out, you didn't need to. He practically fell right into your lap.

When he entered, you immediately noticed that he walked with much more confidence than before. Ioday, he wore his coat open, and the standing collar limped to the side, putting his face, though still partially obscured by his gangly hair, almost proudly on display. You were so distracted by his drastic change in demeanor that you almost didn't notice him speaking to you.

"I want my own copy of this movie."

"I'm sorry, but we don't have any more for sale. You can always come in and renew your rental every two weeks, though that limits the number of other movies you can–" 

"Order it for me."

"I can't do that, unfortunately, but–"

"Yes? But what?"

You prop your elbow on the counter and rest your head in your palm, looking up at him from just below, "I have my own copy in my personal collection. You can come by and watch it anytime you like."

"Tonight. I'm coming home with you."

You laughed at how forward he was suddenly being, "Sure. I'm closing up in a few minutes," you tossed him your keys. "Wait for me in the car."

A few minutes later, you locked up the store and entered your car, where he sat nervously waiting for you.

Bonus!

You had waited all day for the unknown call with steadily declining patience. It's not that you were annoyed. You were just excited for your weekly visit. Every week the routine was the same: he comes or calls, spends hours with you holed up in your room and leaves you shivering under your sheets, eagerly awaiting his next arrival.

 Your work day crawled by at an agonizing pace, not helped by the slow business this time of year– and in your particular line of retail. The number of customers that came through the small video store could be counted on one hand, and the number that actually made a purchase even less. As usual, most of your shift was spent doodling in your sketchbook. Lately, they would all be little sketches of him. His hair was your favorite thing to draw; the contrasting textures of his wavy, dry hair and bloody wet tangles looping around one another, the cracked leather coat he always wore, drawing special and precise attention to his bright eyes and the exposed muscles of his face. Your sketchbook was littered with countless finished and unfinished pencil and ink sketches alike. Sometimes, you would add a splash of color, usually red or blue.

He never came into the store anymore. Instead, he would pick from your personal collection and give you money for a copy of his own if he really liked the film. Once or twice, you had tried to set up a cute movie marathon date night, but he would often get...  distracted. It was nice, though. Sneaking him in through your window so your roommates didn't freak out and fucking with the lights out and a movie on in the background made you feel like a teenager again. The butterflies he would churn up in your stomach and the heavy feeling in your chest when you thought of him made you absolutely giddy, though you would have a hard time admitting it if pressed.

It wasn't often he would leave you hanging. If he couldn't make it, he would at least call you and let you know ahead of time. At least then you'd know to set time aside to take care of yourself.

Tonight was one such night. No call, no cancel, no sign of him. By the time you would usually have heard from him, you had had enough of waiting and decided to pleasure yourself. Earphones plugged in with your background noise of choice, lube in hand, toy at the ready, you went to work. As you moved your hands over your body, you imagined they were his. Admittedly, only he could tease you the way you really needed it, from with feather-light touches that tickled your inner thighs, to his hands wrapped around your neck in a vice grip; but tonight, your own would have to do. Just the thought of him touching you like that had you crying out his name. It wasn't until you were nearing your peak that your session was interrupted by an incoming call.

You let the phone ring as you stared at the ID on the screen.

UNKNOWN

It had to be him. It always was. You let the call linger for a few more seconds before you finally picked up the line– you just had to tease him a little bit. A few seconds of silence greeted your ears and planted a seed of uncertainty. "Hello?"

Nothing to be heard on the other line. You considered hanging up before the familiar feedback pierced the line. He said nothing at first, leaving you shivering in anticipation.

There was a sigh on the other end of the line, or perhaps a dark stifled laugh.

"Starting the show without me, sweetheart? What, no more ten minute grace period for me?"

What Redemption Means to Me

With the passing of Akira Toriyama as well as some things going on in my life, I think I'd like to talk about something that means a lot to me in writing... Redemption Arcs. Obviously, Vegeta's gonna be talked about here. Hunter from Owl House, sure. And I'll even throw Zuko from ATLA in here for free.

All three of them are considered evil right off the bat. They don't hide that they will do cruel and horrible things to either get their way or because it's fun. Then we find out that they weren't really evil so much as horribly abused and used to serve a purpose (Vegeta was basically handed to Frieza because King Vegeta and the rest of the Sayians were oppressed. Hunter did everything for Belos, who he thought was his uncle, and that Belos 'cared' for him. Zuko was 'dishonored' because his father said so, not to mention he got his face burned by his father.) And that their behavior is a reflection of the suffering and lives they've had. That, of course, is why we see them change...

Vegeta, on his dying breath in the battle against Frieza, basically told Goku everything about the fate of the Sayians, crying tears of anguish because he couldn't avenge his people after what the alien tyrant did. His heart changes even further when he has a relationship with Bulma and they have Trunks and Bulla. Does he lapse back into old habits and desire to defeat Goku? Sure. But even when he becomes Majin, he realizes that his family give him something strength can never give him. Love, the love of family long lost, and hope that his species will live on through his children.

Hunter, meanwhile, meets Luz and it made him question if helping his uncle is worth it. This was further compounded after kidnapping the Entrails when he realized he was hurting Willow and would rob them of their palismen to feed Belos and grant him a longer life. After seeing he was just a disposable puppet and clone of Belos brother (That he murdered,) Hunter fled to Hexside and eventually befriended Gus. Hunter lived a sheltered life and is saved by friendship and love (yes, Hunter and Willow were basically in love from the get go. Y'all need better media literacy if you think otherwise.)

Now, Zuko is a little different. Sure, the Gaang did help him figure things out and help him see the error in his ways, but who are we kidding. The thing that truly put Zuko on the path of good was his uncle, Iroh. Iroh never lost faith in his nephew, even when the boy lost his way and betrayed him. He always tried to show Zuko the right path to follow and give him advice when he needed it. Granted, it couldn't help Zuko make a decent cup of tea, but hey, he did at least come to understand what was right and gave him the tools to forge his own destiny.

Personally, I like these stories because my life has also been a redemption arc of sorts. Stop me if you've heard this one before. I was bullied and abused by family, classmates, friends, and lovers. I hurt people and lashed out because I was hurt and scared, even people I care about. And then, realized I messed up and having people who genuinely love and support me, I started to change into a better, more loving and compassionate person. Characters like Vegeta, Hunter, and Zuko are the kinds of people I am. People who have been misguided and done wrong, but also have worked hard to become much better people. No one is ever beyond redemption... I mean, unless you're Frieza, Belos, or Ozai. Fuck them.

[faelapis]

i've been putting off talking about the new owl house like a chore because... i honestly didn't have strong feelings about this episode? thoughts below - but don't expect a radical new perspective from me. what i like/don't like is pretty constant. it is, and remains, the owl house. the "feel" of the show, for good or ill, is pretty consistent.

"for the future" lives up to its name - its mainly about setup. its charging up for the big finale. and its a surprisingly laid-back ep for being the penultimate one. i don't have any deep analysis, just basic, knee-jerk reactions of "things i liked" and "things i didn't like."

i liked everything with luz. like i said in these tags, i think the owl house works best when it embraces its own simplicity.

TOH doesn't really have complex characters or plots, but that's fine. i feel like its aiming for a slightly younger audience than something like SU, SPOP, or AT, at least in spirit. but its still charming - when it lets itself just be what it is; a cute litle story about the dorky weird girl who wants to be understood.

i think the shapeshifting palisman ties into what luz' story will end up being: embracing being young. not knowing what you want, like amity talked about. i highly doubt luz will actually have to choose between the boiling isles and the human world. she'll probably always have one foot in both. since the magic door uses titan blood, they can probably figure something out so that king can donate a little bit of blood every now and then without much inconvenience. so luz can travel freely, see her mom (who i don't think will end up staying on the isles) and be with her "found family" as well.

speaking of luz' mom - i wish we saw more sides of camila on the isles. so far she's just been in "mama bear" mode. i would love to see more personal, emotional reactions to this realm of magic from a geek whos way into sci-fi and fantasy.

of course, there's nothing wrong with having a character just be "the mom"... but i feel like they set her up as more, earlier on. they established her as this character with real flaws who will try to make luz more normal or pressure her to stay. but then that's just fixed now. she's just kind of a perfect, supportive mom. so that's a bit of a letdown. especially since she actually used a glyph, that would be a great moment of her either feeling empowered or scared by magic. or yknow. anything other than "protective mom."

i know some will protest that we did have camila feeling guilty about her previous actions, but i never accused the writers of forgetting about it. i just feel like she's become a little too perfect, now. i would love if the tension of her trying to control luz was carried over to the final episode.

i liked the little moment with caleb and phillip. we dont know if caleb is a ghost or hallucination, but its an effective moment nonetheless.

king and the collector... ok, there's things i liked and things i didn't. i like that their relationship has a bit of complexity to it - like, king IS genuinely scared, AND genuinely sympathizes with the collector and wants to help them. like. he is just a kid, but they're also a terrifying immortal force that can turn people into puppets and doesn't really have the emotional maturity to control themself.

however, that complexity feels a bit wasted when... sigh... belos creates forced misunderstanding drama. that part was so unnecessary. if you need belos to be your generic villain, fine, do that. but don't waste the potential of king and the collector, which could have real, character-driven conflict rooted in fear, abandonment, power imbalance, insecurity, etc... but no, we need belos to spoonfeed the narrative into a simple "didn't finish listening" misunderstanding.

sigh. ok. not like i expected better. i can't really bring myself to be too worked up about it, because yknow. its the owl house. its gonna cheapen drama to make it more digestible and with an easy, clean solution. we can't risk a single parent thinking its too mature. guess we might as well assume some blame on disney's part there, too.

huntlow is... fine? it's cute, i guess. its got that same simplicity as luz' overall story arc: just a very innocent, simple story of two underdogs who support each other and fall in love.

OH actually, i do have something to say about hunter: i'm known as a hater, but he was more tolerable this episode. i think it helped that he was more in the background? he's often the melodramatic "perfect abused woobie" center of attention. but this ep, he felt like an equal member of the main squad instead of the writer's darling. he even had moments of anger, rather than just sad and angsty, which i appreciated - even just for the sake of making him less perfect.

i still feel like flapjacks death isn't... for anything, narratively. it doesn't really serve any character development. or story developments. i've seen some people try to make it a problematic thing, in the context of hunter's lack of magic as a disability metaphor. so its weird that flapjack being absorbed into him "fixes" that. i don't know if i would go that far as to call it "yikes", but i can see it.

i think this could be resolved if maybe in the finale, hunter gives up his magic to give flapjack life again, or something along those lines. to show that he cares more about his friend than being "normal" or non-disabled. i'm sure some will disagree because they think it "cheapens" flapjacks death or whatever, but i'm gonna be real with you chief... his death is already bargain bin drama. shrug emoji.

what else... oh yeah, the old collectors being scary powerful, diamond-like Watchers of the World who can destroy anyone who gets in their way is pretty cool. i'm excited to learn how they got wiped out. it would be wild if the current collector is like the strongest of them, and either killed them all or sent them away somewhere.

forced misunderstanding aside, the most interesting drama is still king and the collector. they both have a lot of power, in a show that seems concerned with being against authority and unfair power structures. curious to see how that will be resolved. sure hope its more than just defeating belos together (again) lol.

[helluvashitposter]

This is the first time I'm gonna get in on reviewing the new Helluva boss episode because this was the one I was most excited for! But before I do that, I'm saying it now:

I saw a lot of negative reviews were focused around the Ozzie texts between Stolas and Blitzo and well...I'm sorry guys but my main focus is on THIS MAN RIGHT HERE

So without further a dooooooooo...

I honestly enjoyed Striker in this episode! I love seeing a wackier side of him and not just edgy edge lord, low voice, "I'm gonna eat your kids" through the whole episode. I understand why some people were super disappointed in him not being as threatening as he was in the first episode, but hey. This is a cartoon about dumb demons and sex, I try not to take it too seriously already! (⁠๑⁠•⁠﹏⁠•⁠)

(I also wanna say this now, I was also one of the people taken back by the change in voice actors, but I ain't even gonna let that bother me too much: I know folks like Norman are gonna be mighty expensive or too busy to keep around. As sad as it is, if I can get used to Stolas new voice, I can do the same for this one as long as it means more Strike!)

Speaking of Striker, the main criticism I keep seeing is that he was too egotistical, and because of that statue everyone is just saying he was another Chaz. But I honestly don't get this one?

Striker was ALWAYS just as entitled and self centered in the first episode: Did we forget this man literally made a song all about how awesome he is (That didn't even rhyme) And his speech to Blitz where he talked about how he was above the imps? The statue seems pretty in character for him! Striker has always sucked his own dick, maybe it was a little overzealous but definitely not enough for me to say he was just a full blown Chaz!

Plus, that man still took his job pretty damn serious! Never once was Striker incompetent or a dumbass in this episode. He knew his mission and he was damn malicious about, I mean if you gonna try to tell me this man wasn't just as bloodthirsty as he was last time-

This man has never once hesitated to hurt anyone who gets in his way or just for the fun of it and I think it still shows greatly here!

All and all, I have to disagree with everyone saying his character was "ruined" or "too Chaz like" Striker definitely did not spend the episode going on and on about how his dick is the biggest or how everyone wants to fuck him like Chaz would. (R.i.p Chaz, I love you sweetie!) As left field as the statue was, it definitely didn't steal from the fact that this man was once again determined to finish his job. Which got taken away from him by Stella at the last minute, which he was super bummed about, but he does get paid extra soooo! 🎉🎉🎉

(Full disclaimer: I didn't really care for the Stella part of the episode, I do like the voice actor for snowy owl though. But overall they really were just there...it's really hard to say anything about it other than the fact that she didn't want Stolas killed sooooo (⁠＠⁠_⁠＠⁠;⁠))

Now for the big stuff: The pacing.

I have to say...I do have to agree with everyone when they say the pacing was all over the place. I have to admit: With all the trailers that we were getting, I was expecting this bad boy to be long as hell! At least a good 25 to 30 minutes because we were getting all kinds of things! But man...

Even though the little vet visit was funny, and I am a huge fan of that cute lil goat doctor, it did take away from the actual tension. I came here for badass Striker! And not to mention M&M barely got time to shine as well! The pacing really was just:

BOOM! STRIKER KIDNAPPED STOLAS--

Loona scared of vet 🥺

BAM! MOXXIE AND MILLIE ARE GONNA TAKE ON STRIKER BY THEMSELVES, OOOOOO POWER COUPLE--

Blitz and Karen yell at each other 🤬

RAAAAAH, STRIKER STABBY STOLAS, MILLIE AND MOXXIE CRASH THROUGH ROOF THOUGH, IT'S TIME FOR THE MOST EPIC FIGHT--

Loona got her shot 😊

I feel like we totally got robbed on a much more epic fight and some shades thrown from M&M and Striker, especially when it was a highlight of the trailer! These two being able to properly settle a score with Striker would have really made for such an amazing tension scene since they were the main ones who were affected by him in the first episode. LIKE GUYS, LET MOX AND MILL SHINE WHEN BLITZO ISN'T AROUND, I BEG YOU! THEY'RE AMAZING TOO!! 😭

I will stand by everyone when they say: WE NEED MORE MILLIE DAMNIT!

The ending with Stolas definitely tugged at my heart strings, I won't lie! But again, I'm not here for the Stolitz angst, I was just here to see Strikey boy. WHO DIDN'T DIE, SO YES! TAKE THAT TWITTER!!! MY BOY GETS TO HUNT ANOTHER DAY, AND NOT ONCE DID HE GET HIT BY A TRAIN, IN FACT HE APPARENTLY LOVES THEM SO HA!!

All and all, I will say Harvest moon was peek Striker. It's gonna be hard to ever top that, Norman Striker will forever be missed! But at the end of the day, I did enjoy seeing my favorite cowboy again, and there's apparently some more lore behind him as well that we'll hopefully get to see in the later seasons. I'm just glad I can easily sleep tonight knowing that he wasn't just killed off in the second episode we get him in! 🙏

So it was a good time all around! Especially watching it with my favorite person 💕

In Which, I Go On A Walk And Hear A Ghost Story, That Has Nothing to Do with Jedis (drabble)

As Told By Grogu Djarin 

for Cat's kitten!  @radiowallet

A note from Hazel: Grogu is sharing the sweet story of Georgie by Robert Bright

HI Kitten!

I wanted to send you a mail, because it is almost time to do my favorite holiday, and I was told it is your favorite too!

I bet we have a lot of things in common.

Are you thinking about what you will be? Last time I did not get to dress up for really real. I was myself. Which I know is a great choice. But I am me all the others days. So I am excited to be something else. I might be a frog… or maybe a chicken… OH or maybe a mandadalorian!! 

I already got my very own beskar shirt! 

Anyways, let me know what you are going to wear for tricks and treats!

Here is a story about the time I walked down a spooky trail that was not spooky at all.

Halloween is a fun dress-up and candy time, and a day to remember your people who have died. Plus also to try and scare yourself… 

I do not know. 

So one time, we went for a walk in the woods and it was supposed to scare us very much.

Okay so it was getting dark and we took this walk. The path was lighted with torches. I hear they are called tiki. And there were lots of other kids, some were in their costumes and some were just dressed as kids. I was dressed as a me.

So there was a person in the path they had little horns sticking up of their curly hairs and goat feets and furry legs, plus also no shirt but a scarf. I question their fashion sense. 

Okay, so Goat Guy was telling us to stay on the path, that nothing will touch us, and to have fun.

So far I do not know how we will have fun under these conditions. 

We did the creeping kind of walking. And friends held onto each other, so I put my hand on dad's boot. For safeness.

And then suddenly an owl person popped out from behind a tree!

Okay, I was surprised because of the jumping and “whoo- whooing” plus also it was a person owl, which is unusual. But I was not scared, I guess when you have been through all the stuff me and my dad have, an owl person just does not cut it.

But the owl person told us a story about a ghost, named Georgie. He was not a Jedi… I do not think…

ANYWAYS

Georgie was a little ghost that lived in the attic of a people called Whitakers house. 

And he used to do "ghost jobs" of creaking the steps and squeaking the door, I am doing quotes because what?? ANYWAYS then for reasons I do not understand the Whitaker people said to themselves let’s go to bed because the house making noise… I shruggle at this news. And then the people went to bed the cat with the name of Herman said lemme go outside and do prowling and then the owl called Miss Oliver, that lived in the tree outside the window knew it was time to wake up and ask nobody inparticuar “who” all night long… Well, apparently this works for everyone. Until one day the Whitaker guy got it into his head to do some repairs- he nailed down the creaky step and he put oil on the squeaky bit on the door and then those things did not make noises for Georgie! I think he must have did a dad sigh of, can I just do my job please, people?

Well because he could not do his work he got bored and moped just sitting up in the attic. And no one when to bed, or prowled or asked questions of who… and the owl guy telling the story said that,  that was fine how do you do! But Kitten, this is a thing which is called a sarcasm, and that means it was NOT a fine how do you do, it was a poor how do you do NOT! See how that works it is tricky.

So Georgie left!! He went running all around looking for a house but they all had ghosts already? This must be the spooky part- all these ghosts that are not Jedi all over the place.

Plus also the only house in the village without a ghost was Mr. Gloams' place… it made Georgie scared- when he stepped on the stair it groaned! And the doors moaned! And apparently, that Gloams was a crotchet! I do not know what a crotchet is but it must be bad because he scared Georgie half to death- and he is a ghost… so that is saying something…

So Georgie runned away again. He went to a barn and there was a cow there which is nice. But Georgie got bored again cuz the cow was not a conversationalist.

So while Georgie was there lots of time happened and there was lots of rain and then snow on snow on snow… Georgie was cold and uncomfortable… this is a mystery to me. Cuz he is a ghost.  

Meanwhile Herman the cat, remember Herman? He noticed that all that damp weather made the stair creak again and the door squeak again and he told Miss Oliver the owl and she flew right out to tell Georgie. 

Georgie thought that these were glad tidings. What is a tiding? I do not know, but Georgie knew and he ran home lickity-split! Which I hear is fast. I like going lickity-split. I think lickity split sounds like ice creams... hmmmm I am hungry.

Oh! Sorry

ANYWAYS, he started just doing his thing again. Creaking and squeaking and everyone knew what they were supposed to do again. 

This is the story an owl person told me on a scary walk in the woods… hmmm.

Okay, I like the story but I do not know if it was the proper tone for this Halloween spooky walk. But they gave us hot chocolate plus also candy so thank you Goat Guy and Owl Person! I was terrified! 

The End!

Silas and Philip Questions and Responses Part 2

has Silas gone to the boiling isles?

Answer: He has not : o

2. If Philas did happened in the Owl house lore would it be more popular than Lumity due to the fact it 2 guys instead of girls?

More questions and responses:

Answer: I am not sure, to be honest o.o. I for sure would have loved them for different reasons cause both would be unique and interesting.

3. What would Philip think about people eating horses in certain countries?

Answer: Philip would be horrified, hahaha

4. Do you think Mr. Loverman by Rick Montgomery would fit Philas?

Answer: It would totally fit more for Silas : )

5. What would be Philip and Silas' least favorite food?

Answer: For Philip, he would hate wet bread. Silas would be chicken cause he loved a chicken growing up so much but his dad killed it and without telling Silas, he ate it :'c. And when Silas found out he was eating his pet chicken, well, he got traumatized

6. If Philas was did happened in the original Owl House what things they have to change to keep it somewhat kid-friendly?

Answer: They probably would have, which honestly they shouldn't have since it seems like majority of the peeps who loved owl house were more in the older teenage range and such viewers would benefit to see such complexity and tragic relationship issues

7. what do you think Caleb and Philip where like?

Answer: I think Caleb was a dreamer, hard working, and kind but at the same time kind of naive. Philip was also a dreamer, curious, thirsty for knowlege, but also very scared and stubborn

8. I get the feeling if Philip x Silas would happened in the series conservatives will get more angry at the series because it will kinda paints religion in a bad light weather or not it implied or stated. I can see articles calling owl house anti religious.

Answer: Yeah, you probably right, but at the same time if the show did go with Philip x Silas, then the show should definitely do its best not to paint religion as all bad. Cause not everything relating to religion is terrible. Like, I try to keep a balance in my story, by someone like Father Francis and Sister Margaret be strong believers of their religion and are doing their best to help those in need : )

9. How muscular is Silas compared to Philip?

Answer: Silas is a bit slightly muscular than Philip, but Philip does have lean muscle

10. Is Philip a twink?

Answer: In my story, he isn't a twink : o

11. GRR PHILAS BRAINROT. i just wanted to express that these little creatures won’t get out of my brain and they’re eating away, i need to know more about the silly little otherwise i’ll EXPLODE. they genuinely make me so happy i cannot stress it enough.

Answer: Awww :' ), i am sooo glad you like them, like for reals. I love them too v.v. If i could draw well, i would draw them so much, especially in additional scenes that i didn't end up writing up with them :' c

12. How do you think Silas can be incorporated in the Owl house lore like being foreshadowed in a painting or something else?

Answer: I think a good painting would be Silas trowing Philip into the river, hahaha. another would be how Philip is on sitting between Silas's legs, and another would be the way Silas is looking way from Philip while at the same time forcing Philip's hand off of him. Honestly, silas's flashbacks with philip on them would be a good series of paintings in Philip's mind

13. What would Caleb think of Silas?

If it was Caleb before the boiling isles, he would think Silas is just good friends with Philip and would be so happy Philip has a friend finally.

14. Silas will have to earn forgiveness. If he hadn't taken The Titan's Blood, Phillip would have been able to get the kids back to the Boiling Isles long ago.

It looks like the appearance of Silas will rally the children and Belos against him.

Answer: I mean, if Silas wasn't the one to take the Titan's blood, someone would have grabbed it afterwards : o. Wooden floors need to be replaced and someone else would have found Philip's box. Philip didn't really think about that when he went looking for the box in that one scene.

15. Did Pastor Jonathan knew about the relationship between Philip and Silas?

Answer: Oh, you will see in a Philip flashback : )

16. I think Philip needs to learn this: https://www.tumblr.com/positivelypositive/723839295747719168?source=share

Though, if he did, I guess the story would be over.

Answer: Well, Philip definitely has to make tons of amends before he can just move on and forgive himself : o

17 what’s Philip and Silas’s love language?

Answer: Silas' love language would be, to give and receive: physical touch, and quality time. For Philip, it would be him doing acts of service for the person he loves, and loves receiving physical touch and quality time.

18. I feel like religious group would hate the show even more of Philip X Silas were canon since it kinda portrays it in a bad light,

Answer: Maybe, but it would have been still good to show since many people have gone through such similar scenarios and still do :'c...

19. One song that I think it would fit Philas, mostly Silas' point of view after he stopped hanging out w Philip, is "Ainda gosto dela" (Still like her) (I'd suggest you to look for the lyrics translated if u wanna know abt the music, as it's in brazilian portuguese :3

Answer: this is a sad song :' c, even though it was Silas who for sure pushed Philip away, cries

TELL ME ABOUT KYLIE THE OWL HOUSES!!!!

OK!!!i put the backtory into anothe r ask nut here's some relalosnihops!! belos : belos was kind of mean to her and just ignored her at first and treated her like hunter but more ignoring before warming up and becoming friendswohoo its like a uncle and niece thing as she knows literally nothing and is slowly learning while he knows everything so he is kind oflike a book to her and that's pretty epic they can have their bad moemtns mostly belos and kylie is just like aghhhh ( they both want to see the human realm really y bad ) kylie enjoys pailsmen and loves the idea of them just to find out the things he does to them and instantilywants to explode he didn't like her when she started to speak a lot of and act with her own mind but grew to be find with it and tolerate it as shes like a younger version of him ahhhghhh caleb and Philip raghh collector : first person she met and she can barely y remember when they used to play YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS AGO but they are still friends and activylly play silly games together FRIENDSHIP!!most healthy friendship that she has maybe luz : they don't talk much and when they did it was Hi why are you Me kind of like vee but they grew to b friends and almost pen pals before kylie ran back to belos near the end and she doeslnt really like her for being the new golden guard in a sense but just feels bad that she doesn't know anybetter but in the future and if she wants wti h belos and rarely when she isn't they are pretty good friends!!!!!!and luz enjoys showing her new things and azura related stuff eda : THEY BARELYSPEAK but when they did kylie was wideyeed and happy and also scared to be talking to what belos said the most annoying women to exist as that's what she remembers his words to be but without belos they get along and eda treats her like her own kid and helps her understand the world better king : they are bab bit freaked out that they are related the collector and belos but mostly the collector but other than that they are fine even though kylie is confused by him since she thought titans were all dead and here he is a kind of titan amity : she justknows her as luzs girlfriend and not much and doesn't interact often but she likes playing with her pailsmen ghost the cat and wants to get her hair dyed like her she doesn't really know of kylie until luz is like So I Met a Puppet who tried to be Me willow : SHE REALLTWANTS TO BE FRIEND WITH WILLOW but shes with belos and that wouldn't go over well also shes golden guard 2.0 and willow is close to hunter so its a big mess but she doesn't hate her or anything and willow doesn't even know of her until luz talked about a puppet gus : if it wasn't for belos they would be BESTFRIENDS since they both love humans and finding new things and kylie would love the space show and she enjoys the illusion coven hunter : kylie feels bad for hunter in a way but is slightly angry just from the things belos has said ( like ohhh Hunterleft to be with GROSSHUMANS and kylie is like he sucks lmao ) but in a way feels bad for taking his room and role if hunter knew kylie he would feel bad and be mad too thathe got replaced by some random shapeshifter they have a whole thing trust me. but angry the cycle is starting again kikimora : she thinks kylie is okay just really annoying when she speaks since she talks a lot and is mad she didn't get to be the new like belos right hand man and instead its some random girl lilith : IF IT WASDNT FOR BELOS TEHY WOULD BE BEST FRIENDS FOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!but kylie doesn't know much about lilith other than seeing an old poster in hunters room about her ( which is now her room ) and old stories from the guard and belos about her and feels bad about the owl beast part but if it wandt for belos lilith would probably be her mentor with theirlove of muesuums and finding things and just cool history stuff vee : THEY DONT EVEN KNWO EAHOTHEr but if they did they would find comfort in the similar stories cause shapeshifter something

[candyskiez]

3, 4, 5, and 13 for the toh ask game!

3: Oh this is HARD. I'm currently beginning a rewatch so this might change? Y'know y'know. But I think it's Eclipse Lake. It's just so....man. The nuance. The depth. Genuinely such an accurate portrayal of abuse. I've said it before but just. It's so realistic. I like that they don't make Hunter a perfect victim. He's rude, he's bratty, he's manipulative as FUCK in this episode. We see how he got so far as the Golden Guard. He's cunning. He's smart. He's just also insanely reckless with his life because he was taught it's irrelevant. He uses the same tactics on Amity that Belos used on Lilith. It's also a very raw depiction of an abused teenager that just. Doesn't pull any punches. I love that Amitys trauma doesn't go away and that it shows that trauma influences all kinds of relationships you find yourself in. I don't know what I can say about it that I haven't already said. It's just. An excellent episode about abuse that handles the subject matter properly. It's just fucking GOOD man

4. Hmmm. That's a good question. Honestly? Aladarius. They're interesting! I know it's. Nonsensical given we know scraps. But. Listen. Listen. They're FUN. They have it all. Weird sexual tension filled angsty rivalry, childhood best friends turnt awkward tension, comedic gold, divorced energy, absolutely loving and tender after canon, what more can I ask for? I just ..I love thinking about them. I love thinking about the possibility of what their dynamic with Odalia was like when the three of them were best friends. I like thinking about them both having so many regrets with how their relationship ended, but they can't say it. They can't get it out. Darius can't risk ever being hurt like that again, the idea of getting his heart broken again is too much, and the idea of having to be NEAR Odalia or having to think about the thousands of hurts near that is enough to make him sick, and hes trying to tell himself hes over it. Alador is just...resigned. He can't fix it. He feels like he can't. They both fucked up so bad and were...not very good people at some point but try SO hard to be better and they make me so emotional. God. With that being said they do not touch dating until their kids are grown up. Ty and gn. Also I love thinking about them having a conversation about Odalia and going "What happened to the friend we knew? Did she ever exist?" "I don't know." "...Would that be worse?" "I don't know." And. Eats a leg.

5. Oh man this is a HARD one. There's so many good ones! Genuinely just ...so many. So fucking many. One that has absolutely no canon backing in any way whatsoever is Darius and His mentor but. That probably doesn't count for many obvious reasons. So I'll take actual canon. Eda and Luz. I fucking love them. They love each other SO MUCH. Eda calling Luz her kid makes me want to scream and just. God. They're what the other needed. Eda needed someone who gave her a reason to get up and keep going. Someone to make her see the outside world. If King and Luz hadn't shown up, she would've rotted away in that tower forever. She needed a purpose, needed someone who made her stop and see that there were some people worth protecting. Luz made Eda see the outside world and. God. Goddd. And Eda being the accepting mentor she needed, offering her companionship when she needed it the most. Scared and sad and lonely, she needed someone to tell her nothing was wrong with her. She needed someone who could help her figure her weirdness out in a safe environment. And Eda was that. Eda helped her so much. And the owl family gets separated over an dover and over again and then Luz breaks that cylce of pain by COMING BACK and going, no, you know what? This doesn't get to end in tragedy. I love Eda. I love King. I love Hooty and Lilith and Camilia ad Hunter and Willow and Gus and Amity. You don't get to take this from me. I'm going to live on the isles and be happy. I'm going to live. I love my family. And just. Man. Man. Considering Eda and Luz both go through depressive periods in the show it's so. Man. MAN.

13. Season two! Simply because it has the most amount of favorite episodes. It's just a really good season man idk what to tell you.

It's. Late at night for me so sorry for incoherency wah

[seagull-spouse]

hello august i would like to ask What Happened In Season 2 Of The Owl House because i kind of. stopped after s1. and i wanna get back to it so here is ur opportunity to ramble about toh <3 tell me everythingg season 2 and also whos your favorite character i am curiosu

OH OKAY

**massive spoilers for season 2 of the owl house obviously**

okay so i am just going to talk about what happens vaguely in every episode. i am so sorry in advance

ep 1: luz sets sail on a ship of pirates to go on a bounty hunt to try and make some extra money for eda because she feels bad about her losing her powers

ep 2: luz willow and gus get expelled from their school by amity's parents because they think that amity having them as friends is distracting her from her school work. so luz goes to the blight's house in order to try and convince amity's mom odalia to let her and her friends back in. odalia agrees, but she will only do it if luz agrees to be the tester for some of odalia's abomination robot machine things at this convention she's hosting later that night. it's pretty dangerous and then amity shows up and saves luz.

ep 3: luz hooty and lilith (who lives at the owl house now after leaving the emperor's coven) go and check out the place that eda found king when he was just a little guy. i honestly don't remember much about this episode but yeah

ep 4: we meet eda's stupid bitch ass mother fucking mom when she just shows up at the owl house out of the mother fucking blue like the bitch that she is and she tries all these stupid ass ways to get rid of eda's curse. and also we meet eda's super chill dad who she hasn't spoken to in a while because back when eda first got her curse she accidentally attacked him and left him blind in one eye and she's felt really guilty about it since.

ep 5: okay so gus meets this cool group of kids from another magical highschool and he tries to impress them by pretending he can do all sorts of magic with the help of luz's glyphs. so the group of kids all take him to this place called the looking glass ruins in order to steal these stone things that would make them hella powerful. they find out about how gus can only do illusion magic and they are super rude to him. gus realizes that stealing the stones is unethical as hell and is like "fuck this shit you guys suck eat my ass" and then scares them all away with some spooky ass illusions. the other part of this episode is about how luz and amity to into this sort of forbidden part of the library amity works at in order to find the diary of the only other human who has lived on the boiling iles before, philip wittebane, so that luz can try to figure out a way to make a portal back home. they find the diary but luz yells really loudly after finding a mouse inside who ate the page of the book. they get caught and amity is fired. luz feels bad and does a bunch of tasks and stuff to get amity her job back. amity goes through her slay era and decides to dye her hair purple. luz lets amity know that she has her job back and find the stupid ass mouse from earlier followed her from the library. amity explains that it's an echo mouse, which is a species of mice that can replay the information of whatever book it ate, so it's all good now because luz takes it home and can now get info about philip's diary from it. but before she goes home amity kisses her on the cheek and then panics and leaves.

ep 6: okay so at school everyone gets to pick out their palismen, which is the magical animals on top of witch's staffs, like how eda's palismen is owlbert. everyone gets one except luz because the way you bond with a palismen is to share what you want to do in life or something like that and luz is like "idk man im from the human realm so will i even have a future with magic??" and so later that night she sneaks out to visit the palismen who are being kept at hexside and she decides that she won't leave until she figures out what she wants to do in life and she gets her palismen. but while she's doing that, the enclosure of palismen with her inside gets stolen by the golden guard. the golden guard is emperor belos's nephew who leads missions and stuff. he always wears this gold owl shaped mask so we never see his face. we've met him earlier on in season 2 but he hasn't had much screen time until now. so luz and him get into a fight and then the flying thing that the golden guard was using to take the palismen crashes after being attacked by this weird dragon thing. after waking up, this cute little red bird palismen follows her from the wreckage. luz then finds the golden guard on the ground after the crash, his mask has fallen off to reveal that he's just some scrawny kid around the same age as luz, and later it's revealed that his name is hunter. which may i say is a stupid ass name but okay whatever. luz overheards kikimora, this annoying ass bitch who also works for the emperor but fucking hates hunter because she wants to be the emperor's right hand man but she can't because that's what hunter is, talk about how she sent the weird ass dragon to take down the ship in order to beat hunter to the palismen to gain the favour of belos (the emperor). luz wakes up hunter to let him know what tf is going on and they form a truce to get back the palismen that kikimora took in order to give to belos because that's how he maintains his forms for goofy reasons. they agree to form a truce because neither of them want kikimora's bitch ass to win. blah blah fight scenes whatever. luz ges the palismen back to the school and the cute little red bird palismen goes with hunter and becomes his palismen. he names him flapjack and he's cute as hell.

oh lord okay so it's almost 12am here and if i continue then i will not be asleep until like 6am. so this is all you get avi :)))

sorry if it's too chaotic

i hope you have a fantastic day (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)

I romantically match you with: Amity Blight!

-I WAS going to say Amity seems like she would be short af. But she is only a few inches below six foot as a teen and taller as an adult so never mind I guess.

-You remind me so much of seasons 1 and 2a Luz.

-Just like her and Luz you both are that ship trope where it's like a grumpy person and a ray of sunshine.

-Her REAL family (so not Odaila) and friends are the most important thing to her. She knew what it was like to have social status as her number one priority and it wasn't great.

-Amity missed out on a lot of actually living her life so now she spends a lot of her free time living her life to the fullest. Usually to the point where she expresses stuff others wouldn't experience in ten lifetimes.

-Amity will be do all the smart game things in her free time (I.E like you said puzzles, riddles and crosswords.) She find them relaxing. (Unlike me who has a storke when I mess up in a crossword.)

-Amity will read some random fact online and go to everyone she knows and be like "Guess what I just learned!"

-Amity would love to listen to you play instruments!!! She might try to learn herself to surprise you.

-She has problems with resting/ doing nothing, but she'll be damned if she lets you also have that problem. She will force you to take breaks. You might not feel overwhelmed or burnt out yet but if you carry on like this it will happen sooner or later.

-You fear stagnation? You and her both. So she is pretty good at comforting you if you're having a particularly bad time with the fear.

-Luz loves using emoticons. So first of all she's used to it. But she also finds it very endearing.

-It may be a basic headcanon but I think Amity's favorite drink is tea.

-Amity specializes in a few foods but besides that, she can't cook or bake. But the fact that you are able to remember and make so many recipes and make them taste good? You're basically magical (And she has authority on the topic.)

-She loves spooky stuff but not horror stuff if that makes sense. Like she loves a Halloween-y vibe and a campfire story scary, but nothing gory or like jump scares. That last one is just because of the cheapness of it.

-I think Lilith rubbed off on Amity in her love of history.

-She loves learning about the psychology of things. Why do people do the things they do.

I platonically match you with: Luz Noceda

-Optimistic person and optimistic person friendship is honestly always chaotic. And that's just how Luz likes it.

-Luz loves her friends and family so much. That's like her main thing

-Luz unintentionally lives life to the fullest. Danger and new experiences gravitate toward her.

-I feel like Luz played any instrument she could in school, that's not to say she was good at it but she tried. (She got better after studying in the bard coven.) So when she finds out you play she's very excited and wants to play with you.

-She wanted to do ballet when she was younger but when she found out classes weren't just dancing and were actual y'know... Lessons she left. (I can't blame her I don't know what your classes are like but when I was in ballet the keeping your head straight thing was torture for me) But since you do the dancing part that she was interested in she loves to watch perform.

-If you let her she'll watch the hell out your cartoon. You finished a very rough sketch? She is already by your side asking to see.

-Girl literally lives in the demon realm and is also obsessed with Azura She is in too deep to get out of the fantasy "phase."

-Mildred Featherwhyle ass I think I've made it clear that she loves seeing your craft, but the fact that you write FANTSY books!? She was so excited she literally bounced up and down

-Luz is going to force you to take breaks. She's not going to force you to do nothing, she has adhd she knows that can be hard. But taking breaks is important.

-She is the queen of using silly emoticons.

-Luz was obsessed with space when she was younger and you can't convince me otherwise.

-Luz likes and runs D&D campaigns.

-Luz canonically likes art both the writing and drawing kind.

Bro, I don't know what happened but I went OFF. Um- Hope you like it!

THE OWL HOUSE RANT!! SPOILERS FOR FTF!!!

Okay so these are things I really want to happen in the last episode!! Obviously Eda and Camilla meeting!! Just imagine Camilla thanking her for taking care of her daughter!!Honestly I just want her to meet one of the other adults!! Speaking of the other adults, where's Alador?!?! Where's Gus' dad?!?! WHERE'S WILLOWS PAPA?!?! WHERE'S OWLBERT?!?!

Another thing is something we're obviously gonna get but I wanted to talk about some of my theories about that mysterious person Luz saw in The In Between (courtesy of Morgan Terry). Okay so Not So Average Fangirl said that it looked like King a little bit and maybe it's him from the future? Waving to Luz and trying to warn her about something? But the theory that I came up with is that it might be Terrok. Yes, I know "But he tried to kill King." Yeah but he was under the influence that Titans are evil. And Bill confirmed that he's been lying about that. Sort of. I mean, with what we heard in For The Future the fact that The Collectors wiped out all of the Titans besides King because Titans could use their magic to lock them up like they did this Kid Collector isn't really a lie. The only thing he lied about was them gaining great power. Also they weren't worshiping just the Kid Collector, they were worshipping literally every other Collector in the universe!! Anyway, but I was thinking maybe Terrok didn't like the fact that Bill "lied" and turned against him so he tried to find a way to comunicate with Luz and found out about The In Between and that's how he got there. Also, Titans don't have wings. Terrok does. Just saying.

Obviously more of STRINGBEAN!! EXCUSE ME WHILE I FANGIRL OVER HOW CUTE SHE IS!! AAAAAAAAAHHHH I LOVE HER SO MUCH *SOBS* *SCREAMS* *THROWS UP*

Anyway, the fact that Kid Collector (This is what I'm calling them now because he doesn't have an actual name.) and King are supposed to be mortal enemies but became friends is just... It's great. Well it was until BELOS!!! FUCKING!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

ALSO SOMEONE MENTIONED, I FORGET WHO, THAT RAINE MIGHT DIE?!?! BECAUSE THE ONLY REASON HUNTER SURVIVED THE POSSESSION WAS BECAUSE OF FLAPJACK?!?! SO LIKE... I'M SCARED?!?!

THE ADULTS!! BEATING!! BELOS'!! SEAWEED ASS!! PLEASE FOR GODS SAKE!!

WILLOW PUNCHING BOSCHA!! JUST ONE GOOD PUNCH IN THE FACE WOULD BE SO FUCKING SATISFYING!!

REUNIONS!!!! I LOVE REUNIONS!!! I CRIED WHEN ANNE GOT BACK HOME AND HER PARENTS HUGGED HER, I CRIED WHEN ANNE AND MARCY SAW EACH OTHER FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FOREVER IT WAS SO SWEET AND CRIED AGAIN WHEN LUZ GOT HOME TO HER MOM AND THEY HUGGED AND WHEN LILITH AND HOOTY SAW EACH OTHER AGAIN!! I LOVE REUNIONS SO MUCH!! LUZ, KING, AND EDA NEED ONE, AND WILLOW AND HER DADS NEED ONE, AND GUS AND HIS DAD, AND THE BLIGHT SIBLINGS WITH THEIR DAD!! GOD!!

I!! WANT!! KING!! TO!! CRY!! HE IS EIGHT!! AND LITERALLY HAS THE WHOLE WORLD ON HIS SHOULDERS!! LIKE WHEN EVERYTHING IS OVER I JUST WANT HIM TO BREAK DOWN AND HAVE HIS FAMILY COMFORTING HIM, OH GOD YOU POOR THING!!

We already kind of got this but Caleb and Belos!! I want Caleb to tell Belos off before he dies!! OR LIKE A CALEB AND HUNTER INTERACTION!!

The Hades Crew Goes Camping

Valvatorez brings his family to the surface world for some fresh air. The expected amount of chaos follows.

THAT MORNING--

-Val commands Fenrich to pack as many sardines as possible. Fenrich knows that his lord usually consumes 30 sardines a day, and a standard issue can of sardines contains 5 sardines each. He packs 5 cans per day so Val will be slightly hungry so he can tempt him into drinking some blood as a supplement.

-Artina brings like 4 extra cans and completely obliterates his plan

-Artina also brought weed

THAT DAY--

-They go to a beautiful lake in the middle of the woods and humans are there. Fenrich goes Vanargandr and scares them all off. Val praises him for this.

“All is for my lord“ count +1

-Emizel brought a GameBoil. He is playing evil Tetris. Fenrich confiscates the Gameboil. Emizel brings out a second Gameboil, which also has evil Tetris, when Fenrich is not looking.

-Val is actually weak to the sunlight, and it’s a bright, beautiful day. He’s decked out in full fisher gear covering all his skin, including a classic “Humans Fear Me; Fish Also Fear Me“ cap.

-He is wearing his cape over it, though

-It’s actually been several hundred years since Artina was in a forest, so Fuka is, functionally, the only person who knows what they are actually like. She tried to warn Emizel about ticks, but he insisted on wearing shorts anyway.

-Desco is fighting a raccoon. Val, being her legal guardian, responsibly tells her to stand back so he can dispatch the raccoon.

“MY LORD! YOUR SHOTS!“

-Fenrich, being Val’s legal guardian, responsibly steps in to actually dispatch the raccoon.

“All is for my lord“ count +2

-Artina has to do so much first aid

-Eventually, Val starts fishing, chatting casually with Artina as the kids splash around.

-Fuka and Emizel got in a splash fight. In spite of Emizel tapping into his powers as an actual grim reaper, Fuka wins through SHEER determination... and also cheating, because somehow she’d been hiding her baseball bat this whole time.

-Desco catches a bass with her teeth. Artina says, “Oh! That can be dinner to-” Desco swallows it whole “-night or nevermind I guess.“

-Val shrugs. It’s vastly inferior to sardines, anyway. Artina’s sigh is deeper than her love of money.

-Fenrich set up camp because everyone else completely forgot. Val is proud and remarks that he expected nothing less from Fenrich’s keen foresight.

“All is for my lord“ count +3

AS THE SUN SETS--

-It’s marshmallow time babey

-Desco is holding a stick with a marshmallow in each tentacle.

-Val took ONE lick of a marshmallow and wretched, disgusted by the idea of eating sugar and bones. He roasts a sardine on a stick instead.

-Emizel complains that the girls are hogging all the marshmallows. Fenrich made sure to put extra aside for him. Artina noticed this, and wants to tease him, but she decides not to. Half because the moment is sweet enough to leave on its own, and half because she thinks if she points it out, he will eat every last marshmallow out of spite.

Anyway she tries to light a blunt on the fire

Val puts his foot down, “Not in front of the children! At least wait until they’re asleep!“

“Ok Mr. Vampire. I’ll wait for the munchkins to be asleep.”

Fuka shouts, “I am NOT a munchkin!!“

Val shrugs, “I wouldn’t allow her to light up in front of  prinnies either.“

This causes exactly the kind of fight you would expect.

Desco lights up, “If everyone is training now, can Desco eat their marshmallows?“

Emizel laments, “Can’t we at least go camping without causing more problems for ourselves?“

Val and Fen sneak off a little later for a walk. The moon is full and shining on the water in a way they just can’t ignore. Fuka calls it “walkies.“

THAT NIGHT--

The woods are scary at night, especially when you don’t know what an owl is

Desco caves in first and runs into Val and Fen’s tent to sleep next to Val.

Fuka’s next, “not because I’m scared or anything, but Desco will feel better if I’m here.“

Emizel doesn’t want to be left out. Also he doesn’t know what an owl is.

Fenrich is annoyed by the massive amount of children and goes to sit outside the tent, but then Artina shows up like “Aw are we all sleeping in a pile?“

“Yes and there’s no more room,“ He says before going back into the tent.

Ironically, Val gets annoyed by how many people are piled all over him. He turns into a bat and sneaks out, going to sleep in the kid’s tent

I've missed writing for this power couple thank you so much for the prompt! Hope I got the concept right and hope you like what I did with your idea 💕

Pairing: Ethan Winters x Mia Winters [Resident Evil Village]

Warnings: None? (if you spot any things I should put warnings for while reading please let me know)

Genre: AU, Romance

Summary: see ask above

Myths and legends spread like a wildfire. Be it bedtime stories or tales told around the glow of a fire, they fall from ear to ear, raising eyebrows and bringing goosebumps to your skin. Many are brushed off as nothing but what they are presented as - tales and stories to excite or scare. Most, if not all, are deemed nothing but a product of one's mind.

Rarely does one dig a little deeper or even give them a second thought.

Except children, that is.

Adults may laugh at a kid's imagination. They might call it a gullible wishful wonderland of the young mind, all the while being none-the-wiser to the fact that they are the ones in the dark to a whole other world hiding in plain sight.

Angie knew she should be scared. Any kid in her situation would've been. Truth be told, she was more annoyed than anything else. She took pride in being so diligent and well-oriented in a forest practically meant to disorient people. Which is why she refused to call out for her brother, admitting she'd gotten lost.

The six-year-old wandered the winter wonderland of woods behind her grandparents' house, a small frown shadowing her usually wide and curious eyes. Her boots sank ankle-deep in the snow with each step she took, unsure if she was heading in the right direction or the opposite one entirely.

Minutes felt like hours to the confused little girl, fear only now setting in her chest. It was soon getting closer to the early sunset which only unnerved her more. She'd heard the tales of the woodland creatures of the night. The lurking werewolves and other dangerous monsters. The apparitions and ghosts that wandered the hollow darkness, waiting to snatch kids the likes of her.

That being said, one would assume that the sight of something or someone even remotely resembling a ghostly presence would terrify the girl. But oddly enough, the glimpse Angie caught of the woman lurking around the trees filled her with nothing but hope.

To be quite frank, nothing about the woman's appearance was out of place in any way. Nothing about her demeanor was meant to instill fear. On the contrary: there was an aura of comfort surrounding her as she seemed to have made herself at-home amidst the snow.

When measured, the fear of the quickly settling darkness seemed a lot greater than any distrust the girl should’ve felt towards the unknown woman. Therefore, her decision was made and before she knew it, her footsteps crackled through the snow, making a path closer to her.

“E-excuse me?“ The words stumble out with a dose of uncertainty, “I-I’m lost...can you help-?“ The sentence dies just a word away from completion, cut off as the breath in the girl’s lungs also comes to a brief halt at the sight in front of her.

The woman has now turned around, looking at Angie with her deeply kind eyes. Long dark hair framed her pale face, cascading down her shoulders which like the rest of her body were clad in a white robe-like dress that looks so soft, it might as well have been made of the snow surrounding them. The smile that slowly tugged at the corners of her lips was as comforting as her warm gaze.

“Hello, dear. Lost, are you? How careless of you to wander like this.“ The lady clicked her tongue, the mild scolding sounding more like a soft tune than anything else, “Don’t you know what lingers in these woods at night?“

Still at a loss for words, the girl simply nodded, unsure of what she was answering or what her answer even meant, but all the same she got a small chuckle from the lady.

“Let’s get you home.“

Extending a hand, she silently offered Angie her help, which the girl gladly took. Her mother had imbedded it into her head that talking to strangers would get her in a lot of trouble but alas, at this moment, she didn’t care. Hell, she didn’t even feel the woman to be a stranger. She felt so familiar, so....home-like? The air around her was a few degrees colder and yet the touch of her hand was a warm embrace for Angie’s cold little palm as she was lead down paths covered in a thick layer of snow. Nothing guaranteed this to be the right way home, but she had full faith nonetheless.

And it’s a good thing she did because before long, a thin plume of smoke became visible in the sky ahead of them. Before the girl knew, they were mere feet away from the clearing where her family’s cottage stood.

“I believe this is your destination, dear.“ The lady let go of her hand, instead adjusting the girl’s beanie as she took a step back, “Go on, now. It’s getting darker and colder as we speak.“

Angie nodded, “Thank you, ma’am. Thank you for bringing me home.”

The woman chuckled yet again, “Please, darling, call me Mia.”

With that, the girl ran the few yards separating her from her house’s front door. However, a brief glance over her shoulder before she could duck inside revealed that Mia had long disappeared from her spot by the forest barrier.

All without even a single noisy footstep or even a rustle.

*  *  *  *  *  *  *

“You ought to stop wandering away like that, had me worried sick.“ 

Mia damn near rolls her eyes at the decently annoyed but all too familiar grumble of her favorite minion. Well, her only minion. Not even a minion, really. She did tend to call him that to get on his nerves though.

“With those big yellow eyes of yours, it’s hard to miss you, darling. Even if you can’t find me, I’ll find you.“ She replied sweetly, extending a hand to shake some snow off Ethan’s wing. 

“It’s my job to guard you, ma’am, not the other way around.“ He pointed out, but there was no real effort behind his defense, meaning the argument is just about dropped already.

And even if it wasn’t, Mia’s warm smile would’ve taken it out in no time, “I tend to think we do a pretty good job looking out for one another, don’t you think?“ The pause that commenced afterwards was too brief for him to conjure up a reply, “And will you drop the ‘ma’am’? Are you trying to make me feel old?“

Ethan’s face mimicked the color of the snow for the splittest of seconds, “N-no! I’d never!”

Giggling at her guardian’s flustered reaction, Mia simply cups his cheek, her gaze making him feel small despite being decently taller than her, “I know you’d never, darling. But I hope that doesn’t also apply to you dropping that formal attitude of yours. We are friends too, after all.”

Her hand ghosts over and disappears and so does the rest of her, sending Ethan’s head spinning as he briefly found himself drunk on her touch. The small laugh echoing its way between the trees, dancing along the wind, sends him a clear message about the game she wants to plat

“Come find me, Ethan!“

His head better stop spinning soon, he needs to get it in the game.
