#anyway i wish you all the best & i'm waiting for your next update

[rottenpumpkin13]

I'm curious, what do you think was the WORST injury Zack had and SOMEHOW got away with it? You can go Hurt/No Comfort if you want we're all collective masochists in the end

Have it your way >:^) - also this took so long because I wrote a version that was not a fun read for the Zack enjoyers and had to tone it down asdfghjk

✮ ⋆ ˚｡𖦹 ⋆｡°✩

He vaguely recalled reading an article about comatose patients: how their consciousness, though unresponsive, remained active—suspended in void between life and death, poised to be drawn toward one or the other. Comas were like waiting rooms, and he almost wished he had something to occupy his mind—a magazine, a comic book, even a crossword puzzle, despite his usual disdain for them; anything to drown out the voices that began at precisely 4 PM each day.

Angeal was always the first to arrive, the squeak of his boots unmistakable against the polished hospital floor. He would listen intently as the supervising nurse provided updates on the condition—“No significant changes in his neurological status, the expected timeframe for him regaining consciousness remains uncertain.” But Angeal's positivity never wavered. "He will," he would insist, bless his ignorance, "Zack's strong.. He'll pull through this, I know he will."

In the first week, Zack wanted to shout, “Hell yeah I am! Watch, Angeal, I’ll be out of here in no time!” By the third week, it was as if he’d lost his voice—both literally and metaphorically. Zack prided himself on his perseverance, as if he were born with sunny-tinted glasses that allowed him to pull through everything without a fight.

Scraped knees as a child became cool battle wounds in his childhood; timeouts transformed into prisons the warrior he pretended to be had to escape; and the vegetables his mother forced him to eat were poison he had to avoid at all costs. Naturally, the waiting room analogy was what he clung to in order to stay sane.

Next came Sephiroth, heralded by the unmistakable clatter of his shoulder guards—a sound Zack likened to a cat bell, one he’d be sure to tease Sephiroth about when he woke up. Sephiroth never asked the nurse for updates; Angeal must have already filled him in. Instead, he would walk silently over to the bed, place a hand gently on Zack’s forehead, and whisper softly: “I miss you. Get well soon,” before carefully adjusting his blankets, making sure Zack was comfortable.

Inside, Zack was desperately screaming, "I will, I promise!" but Sephiroth couldn't hear him. By the fourth week, the harder Zack tried to scream, the further he felt from reality.

Then came Genesis, his presence inundating the room. He spoke to Zack as if he were awake, greeting him with a cheerful, "Good evening, Puppy," and proudly asking, "What do you think of my new coat?" Zack wished he would never stop talking. Genesis would then sit beside him and read aloud from Loveless. Zack suspected it was Genesis’ version of a prayer, and for that, he didn't mind at all.

And then there was Cloud. Zack's longing to scream out surged whenever he caught the meek shuffle of Cloud's boots, followed by the faint squeak of him thanking the nurse before entering. Cloud would meticulously style Zack's hair, crafting his signature spikes with care, as if determined to preserve Zack's essence even in his incapacitated state. His touch was gentle as he spoke to Zack as though he were awake and listening intently. Cloud would vent about his rowdy squad mates, grumble about his stern commanding officer, and lament the monotony of patrol missions where he strived to do his best

And then came the most difficult confession.

"I'm gonna stop trying out for SOLDIER," Cloud admitted one day, his voice soft as he tended to the flowers by Zack's bedside. "Tryouts are approaching, but… it just wouldn't feel right without you. Not that I'm all that confident I'd make it anyway, but I can't bring myself to do it without you here."

If Cloud could glimpse inside Zack's mind, he'd hear him screaming.

He was so helpless, trapped inside that cage, that body that wouldn't just WAKE UP. He needed to get up, he needed to be there for Cloud, and for Angeal who wasted so much time training him, and for Genesis who was finally starting to warm up to him, and for Sephiroth, who’s friendship he valued so much.

But it was useless.

He wanted to give up.

So he did.

He caved, and let the darkness take him.

But it rejected Zack. As much as death teased and loved to embrace him, it eventually always spat him out again. And maybe that was Zack Fair’s curse, cemented when his eyes fluttered open one morning.

Hovering above him was the unmistakable silhouette of a SOLDIER. With great effort, he lifted his heavy eyelids, only to find Kunsel standing before him, his appearance clearly older than the last time he had seen him. Zack should have noticed the calendar hanging on the wall, its numbers spelling out the year "0007."

Yet, instead of acknowledging the date, Zack's trembling voice broke through the silence. He questioned Kunsel, struggling with each word. He asked about Angeal, Cloud, Sephiroth, and Genesis.

Kunsel looked grim before replying.

“There was a mass desertion at SOLDIER years ago.”

You are so sweet!!!! 🥺❤️ And thank you for believing in me, that really means a lot. Your advice honestly really helped and made my whole day!!

If I’m being totally honest, as much as I’d love to quit on the spot despite not having a job lined up, I need to start paying student loans soon on top of small monthly bills to pay. I’ve tons of money saved up, though… I guess, in this particular case, although I hate to admit it, it’s good I don’t have my own place yet. However, this would just expand the longevity of me living at home, and I’m seriously considering on moving out by the end of March or May. Anyways, that would only happen if I have a new job by then, but if not, then I still have this job! So.. I’m moving out regardless. I don’t remember if I already said this but it’s an MPS in fashion marketing! There’s little to no fashion in this city except for two well known brands (retail and a luxury designer carrier) whose headquarters are in my city. Anyways, there’s lots of pros and cons here. That’s just where my head is at.

Thank you again, Poppy ❤️ I’ll think about it. I’m still applying, so I hope someone cares enough to give me a chance before March or May ends. Wow, this was a long response.

(Btw, it’s the snow anon)

me connecting the dots: snow anon = new year's eve anon = you! 🫵 (we need to find a nickname for you 🤭)

i'm glad i could help to make you feel better, even if just a little bit! sometimes you just need someone to tell you that everything's going to be ok, it's so simple but it always helps me A LOT when i feel anxious & i'm worried about my future.

honestly, i think moving out would be an amazing idea. this is also such a huge step in life & i can tell you it's probably the best decision you could make, especially when you feel like it's finally the right time to do that. & from my experience, even if you have a shitty job, living alone is totally worth it lol. because, let's be honest, this job is only TEMPORARY & you can always change it. and i'm sure once you move out, you will feel so much better - i don't know about you but i'm a huge introvert & having my own space is something i need for my well-being. have you been thinking about moving to a different city tho? or just leaving your home? it's also something to consider i guess, unless you don't want to.

MPS in fashion marketing? wow, honestly that sounds awesome & super creative, no wonder you don't want to work in retail anymore. & that's good! aim higher! if this is what you really love, never give up on it, just try, try, try... & eventually you will succeed! cause after all, this is going to be our year, right?

& always at your service! 🫡

Diavolo: MC? Where are you going? *has seen them leaving their room*

Kid MC: I'm going to send this letter to Uncle Luke!

Diavolo: A letter? Hm. But it's already late. Can't you just send it tomorrow morning?

Kid MC: Yes. But Uncle said I need to send it tonight!

Diavolo: Just you alone?

Kid MC: *nods*

Diavolo: ...

Diavolo: I'll accompany you. Is that okay?

Kid MC: Yes! And Lord Diavolo? Can you check my letter too? To see if I have written it right.

Diavolo: Of course.

Kid MC: *gives the letter to him*

Diavolo: *reads it*

Diavolo: ...

Kid MC: How is it, Lord Diavolo?

Diavolo: *smiles* You've got the skills of your father. You're quite eloquent.

Kid MC: *giggles* I used a dictionary!

Diavolo: *chuckles* That's great! Here. I'm sure Luke will be happy to receive your reply.

Luke: *smiles as he reads the letter of MC*

"Dear Uncle Luke,

Thank you for inviting me to go on a vacation with you. But I need to ask Papa first.

Instead, why don't you stay and have a vacation here? Lord Diavolo can give you a room in the castle! Oh! And in the House Of Lamentation too!

I can't wait for you to join us, Uncle!

Sincerely,

MC"

Luke: *then reads Simeon's note next*

"Luke, I really appreciate you updating me on the situation. I must say, I'd feel much better if you didn't get involved any further. It's probably best if you head back to the Celestial Realm. MC and I are doing fine, just as you wished for us. Please take care, and rest assured, we'll meet again soon. Don't worry too much, and I sincerely hope you're doing well. — Simeon"

Luke: ...

Michael: It seems you have no luck either.

Luke: ...

Michael: Have you mentioned about the consequences?

Luke: Yes.

Luke: Simeon is... willing to take the risk.

Michael: ...

Michael: However, you felt relieved reading the child's letter. Why is that?

Luke: MC... They have a pure soul. They may look like a demon, but I would say that they have the heart of an angel.

Michael: ...

Luke: *looks at him* Michael, is there no way for father to reconsider?

Michael: ...

Michael: I'm afraid not. Unless if Simeon becomes honest and confess.

Luke: ...

Simeon: MC, there's something Papa would like to ask you.

Kid MC: What is it, Papa?

Simeon: ...

Simeon: Would you still love Papa if I became a human?

Kid MC: What's a human?

Simeon: *smiles* They're neither angel nor demon. You can say that they're someone that stands in the middle.

Kid MC: Okay? But why do you ask if I would still love you if you were a human?

Simeon: You know how Papa writes stories, right? I want to know your opinion.

Kid MC: Hmmmmmm... Papa? To be honest, that's a dumb question.

Simeon: *chuckles* How so?

Kid MC: Because I will love Papa no matter what. You can be a demon, an angel, a human, a bird, a worm—

Simeon: Worm?

Kid MC: I added that just in case.

Simeon: *smiles*

Kid MC: Anyway, I'm saying that you can be anything or anyone but you will still remain my Papa! So of course, I will forever love you!

Simeon: ...

Simeon: *hugs them* Do you know that humans have short lives? What will you do if Papa really did turn into a human?

Kid MC: Another dumb question, Papa! Then I'll turn into a human too!

Simeon: *hugs them tight* Oh... How did I deserve to have a child like you?

Kid MC: What's wrong, Papa? You're acting weird!

Simeon: Nothing. *chuckles* Papa loves you so much.

Kid MC: I love you so much too, Papa!

Raphael: Simeon, you finally agreed to meet us.

Simeon: Yes. After all, I need to give you an answer.

Michael: Then, I would like to remind you of the consequences. Since you refused to entrust your child to us, father has decided to turn you into a human and that would be your punishment for disobeying him.

Michael: However, if you choose to tell us the truth—

Simeon: I'm sorry. But I accept his punishment.

Raphael and Michael: ...

Raphael: Why? He's giving you a chance!

Simeon: *smiles* I'm just protecting my child, Raphael. If the truth comes out, that will ruin them.

Simeon: I will never do anything to ruin my child.

Raphael: ...

Michael: If that's what you've decided.

Kid MC: Papa?

Simeon: Hm?

Kid MC: *looks into his eyes*

Kid MC: Did you become a human, Papa?

Simeon: ...

Simeon: *smiles* Yes.

Kid MC: ...

Kid MC: *pouts* Why just you?

Simeon: *chuckles* *lifts them up*

Simeon: *smiles softly at them* Papa wants to see you grow up as a demon.

Kid MC: But you are a human so I want to be human too!

Simeon: We'll get into that, okay? Once you're old enough to make decisions. *kisses their forehead*

[aetherdoesthings]

hello! good night! i was scrolling down and i saw your post about requests... and i was going to ask if i could do one even though i didnt follow you before realizing you were the luffy angst writter!!! that i follow for that series/three-shot!!! anyways;

could you do something about a reader (f! or gn! reader, the one you prefer) getting a tattoo? (a tramp stamp to be more specific, if you can) with robin, shanks, luffy and crocodile? it can be platonic or romantic/suggestive! i had the idea of getting one for a little while and i couldnt resist the temptation of having some thoughts w/them...

thank you very much! i love your writing! 💖

elo aequarea! thank you for the compliment 🫶🏻🫶🏻! unfortunately i've put the luffy angst fic on hiatus until i decide to finish off y/n fate.

forethoughts: sickness update- i can breathe through my nose now! but i got a stupid cough and sore throat still :(. yes i'm still sick and writing with a migraine. thanks for all the wishes and lovely messages you've given me <3! going back to sleep after posting this.

notes: this is my first time writing for shanks and crocodile, so apologies if inaccurate or not good. all gn!reader, smut-ish for crocodile and robin.

Robin

When you told Robin you wanted a tramp stamp, she didn’t make any comments, and only wanted to know your reason behind it. She saw her fair share of tramp stamps back at her time in Baroque Works; she wasn’t shocked at the concept of it. She was rather intrigued at your desire to have one.

After learning why you wanted one, she grabbed her stuff, and took you to the tattoo shop to get one for you.

She knew you weren’t that good with pain, so the entire time you were getting your tattoo, you squeezed her hand, while she nonchalantly read a book. 

Robin didn’t care that her fingers were turning purple, she was reading her book.

She’d occasionally smile at you and give you some words of encouragement, squeezing your hand back before getting back to her book.

Once you were done, she’d coo you and help you recover, making sure it doesn’t get infected or smushed, giving you the best tattoo aftercare ever.

Once it was fully healed, she’d use it to tease you, brushing a finger over it, knowing you’re sensitive in that area. She’d tease the living daylight out of you in bed, making you cry out her name to stop the teasing.

Shanks

Shanks would first be confused by what a tramp stamp is, but once he digs into his memory, he remembers what it is and what it means.

He’d 100% want to choose the design or be a part of choosing the design because if he’s going to stare at it all day, he’d want it to be a beautiful sight.

As you’re getting your tattoo, he’s by your side, telling you a bunch of stories about his days on sea, trying to distract you from the needles poking into your skin. 

He ignores your cries and screams and his fingers turning purple simply by raising his voice over your screams.

Once you were done with your tattoo, Shanks immediately turned into a father figure, caring for you and treating your tattoo until it was fully healed.

Once it was fully healed, he’d always make sure to make a comment about it, especially in bed. He’d show it off to his crew and friends, boasting about how his partner got a tramp stamp for him (you did not get a tramp stamp for him).

All in all, Shanks adores the tattoo and loves it on your body, and maybe if you convince him with two bottles of alcohol in his system, he might get one too.

Luffy

100% when you tell Luffy you want to get a tramp stamp he’s gonna get it with you.

Boy doesn’t even know what it is, he just wants to match with you and get the same tramp stamp.

When it’s time to get it, he sits on the chair next to you, holding your hand to comfort you as you were both getting the tramp stamp. 

Little did you know he’d be the one squeezing the blood out of your fingers when the tattoo started.

For someone who’s fought a warlord and the World Government, he was squirming in his seat, waiting for the tattoo to end. 

Once it did end, he was thrilled and hyped, since the two of you got matching tattoos.

Oh, the poor Straw Hats who had to listen to Luffy yap about the tramp stamp and how it matches with yours.

Crocodile

Crocodile really didn’t care when you told him you wanted a tramp stamp. He was busy with his work, still trying to take down Alabasta and making sure it was a foolproof plan. 

He wasn’t also a fan of getting a tramp stamp, since he knew what it meant and he didn’t want the world to know his partner was associated with promiscuity.

He relented eventually, after you brought Miss All Sunday to join the argument, as Crocodile had no choice but to let you get the tramp stamp.

You went to the shop with Miss All Sunday, since Crocodile didn’t want to be seen with you inside a tattoo shop getting a tramp stamp, but he didn’t want you to go alone with you would be in danger, so he sent Miss All Sunday to go with you.

You got the tattoo with the woman, talking about some random things to pass the time. 

Once you were done,  you showed Crocodile, who initially had a strong reluctance in the tattoo.

But now that you got it, he was in love with the tattoo. He loves to use his hook to grab your waist, running the hook against your tattoo, loving your reaction and how it looked against your skin.

Yes he will use his hook to grab your waist while he’s pumping into you from behind and calling you a whore and living up to your tattoo.

Broken heart || Jude Bellingham

💋 Requests are open!

‼️ Warnings: mentions of party, broken heart and discussion.

🫧 Requested: yes!

🏎️ Author’s note: thank you to the anon who requested this! i got very excited when i saw the request🤭🤭 also i hope this is good and similar to what you’ve asked… keep requesting!! finally, as i always say, english is not my first language so if this has any error please tell me🙏🏻

yn lived in Madrid since she was born and she met lots of people there. A few months ago she met a football player, Jude Bellingham. Their connection was instant and they became best friends. They did everything together, she went to his matches, they hung out together always and he trusted her a lot.

At first yn secretly caught feelings for Jude but she didn't want to admit it because she thought him would never like a girl like her and he was talking with a very pretty blonde girl so she started to meet new boys and that’s when she met Álvaro. Álvaro was a 22 years old andalusian boy who studied law at the uni. He was brunette, tall and had green eyes, he was every girl's dream and it became yn’s.

yn told Jude she was meeting Álvaro and Jude felt strange because he wasn’t happy for her. Instead he was feeling strange but he tried to show some happiness… One of the times he went back to his hometown his mom saw him thoughtful and asked him

“Honey, what happens?” Jude looked up from the floor “I don't know mom, I'm feeling strange.. Y'know yn, well she’s meeting a boy and she has been telling me about him and all those things but i'm not happy for her… It’s like I’m jealous” “Oh boy, you’re in love with yn!” his mom said excitedly. She loved yn and her friendship with Jude and she wished that one day they started a formal relationship. “In love? With yn? She’s my best friend!” “But that doesn’t take away the fact that you can’t like her” Jude sighed, frustrated with the words of his mother “I don’t know mom, I'm just confused…”

When Jude came back to Madrid, he started to think about the conversation with his mom. Did he really like yn? No, he could never like her. She wasn’t ugly or a bad person but she was his best friend… The next few days, Jude avoided yn but he couldn't stop thinking about her. One day he finally accepted and realized he was in love with yn. He stopped avoiding her and they met up but he didn't have a good feeling about it and he suspected that his heart would be broken that evening.

And as he suspected, it was right. yn came excited to his arms and hugged him. “I have a lot of things to tell you!” She was very excited and led him to the coffee shop they usually went to. They sat down and she asked him about Jude’s visit to his hometown and after some time he asked her about what she told him before.

”Oh yeah! I have to update you!!” “About what?” Jude asked a little bit scared of her answer “Álvaro and I are dating!” Was what he heard real? “Jude?” “Oh, congratulations!” he said, faking happiness “Thanks, I’m super happy! I can’t wait for you to meet him!”

Days later Jude was in a club with some friends when he saw yn and pablo. yn looked around and saw him too and she came to him with her boyfriend by her hand. ”Hi Jude! What a coincidence!! I want you to meet Álvaro” yn said excited “Hi, I’m Álvaro. Nice to meet you” “Hi, nice to meet you too. I’m Jude'' Jude said, faking a smile and shaking hands with Álvaro.

Jude couldn’t feel more jealous of Álvaro and he was punching himself internally for not realizing his crush with yn before. In one moment of the night yn went to the bathroom and Jude and Álvaro were left together. “How is your relationship with yn going?” “Oh, really good. I’m very happy with her” Álvaro smiled “I hope you guys last… Yn’s relationships don't last too much because she usually cheats on her partners” Jude lied trying to scare Álvaro and tried to make him leave yn “Anyway, are you working?” “Umm, I'm studying law at the university, it’s my last year” “Oh really? Well, you’re not the type of yn.. Her type is more different, physically also” After a few moments and Jude telling lies to Álvaro, yn came back and an hour later Álvaro and yn left.

A few days later yn met up with Jude. This time she didn't look happy when she saw Jude and without greeting him she started to talk angrily to him “Are you crazy? Telling Álvaro I cheat on my partners and telling him that he's not my type? Why?” Jude looked shocked, he didn't want yn to find out but he should have thought that Álvaro would tell her. “I-i’m sorry yn” “I don’t want your apologies right now, i'm really mad at you Jude… Why would you do it?” “yn… I realized I'm in love with you and I can't help but feel jealous and I don't know why I started lying…” yn looked at him in disbelief “You’re in love with me? You’re joking right?” Jude denied with her head and yn laugh sarcastically.

“You have to be joking… I fell in love when i met you but i started to meet new people because you were with that blonde girl and you guys were not even in a relationship! And now that I have a serious relationship you come and try to ruin it? You’re the worst” Now Jude was the one looking at yn in disbelief. She fell in love with him? “I don’t wanna see you anymore Jude, not right now… I'm really mad at you” “Please yn, no!” “No Jude, i trusted you and this is your payback? Nah, i'm not having it…” “Please yn, i’m sorry” “Hope you find a good girl that loves you and hope you stop lying… Bye”

After that yn left and Jude didn’t see her again. He still feels guilty about their ended friendship and his mother is mad at him because she feels like she lost a daughter to her… “Not everything in this life is color pink Jude… Now you have to pay for your acts”

Bradley doesn't stay the night although you wished he had. He goes home to his far too empty home he wishes was as lively and as loud and homely as Jakes. He’s waiting for the all important answer he hopes is a yes–laying awake looking up at the ceiling fan that goes round and round on a medium setting. 

Bradley falls asleep thinking about you, thinking about what it would be like to share his bed with you on a permanent basis. Share a home and a life and all the trials and tribulations that come with committing yourself fully to another person and their subsequent mini me. 

He wants this, he wants all of this. He wants you and Odette and the chaos that comes with you. He wants the laughter and the tears and the addiction to caffeine you stubbornly reject you have. He wants to take all your worry and all your heartbreak and he wants to be a role model for Dot. he wants to be your rock, your best friend, your partner in crime and in life. He's found his person, he knows it. 

“You’re really gonna make me work for this aren't ya guys?” Bradley mumbles to himself in the dead of the still night as he tucks a hand under his pillow and kinks his head to look at the photo he has on his bedside table of his parents. They’re both so in love in the photo Bradley cherishes as one of his prized positions, all he wants is that love. “Couldn't have just let me get the girl without an ensuing crisis?” 

Bradley knows he's talking to himself, it's so quiet he can hear the crickets chirping outside, but he knows his parents are out there, looking down at him with smug smirks plastered on their faces because their boy is head over heels in love. 

“Yeah, thanks guys, your real ones for this, honestly.” Bradley Bradshaw just wants you and everything that is you and comes with you. 

***~***~***~***~***~***~***~

“Psst–” Jakes alarm hadnt even gone off yet. “Psst–Jake?” In his dream he thinks he's on a boat somewhere, being rocked about on the choppy sea. “Dickhead, wake up!” It's the slight snack to the forehead that's ever so rudely drawing him from his slumber and back to reality, his room is still hard, it can't even be five in the morning. 

“What! What, who the fucks dying Y/n?” Jake grumbles as he grabs the pillow next to him, draws it under his arm and rolls over. He doesn't appreciate it when you rip the pillow out from under his head, sending his skull crashing down against the mattress with a thud. “What is your issue!” He's snapping, sitting up with a huff as the covers fall down around his waist. 

“I thought I heard something outside.” Immediately, all Jake's anger from being woken up in the middle of the night, resolves as his shoulders slump and he rubs a hand down his face. Yawning when he actually sees the time, three. It’s three in the goddamn morning. 

“Alright, alright–” Jakes getting up without another word, he doesn't feel like it's necessary to press you further for an explanation, he knows why you’re on edge. “But just so you know.” There's a second where Jake stands with you in the darkness of his room that he sees the girl who’d smoke weed on the fence down by the back of the yards and spend weekends sleeping on his floor on a blow up mattress. He stills sees her, only instead of a mattress on his floor you're in his spare room, with a daughter near as beautiful as you. Jake sticks his finger into your sternum, growling because it's far too early to be awake and you both know it. “Wake me up like that again and i'm using your toothbrush to clean the toilet–” 

“Thanks—“ Jake was expecting some sort of comeback, some witty remark he knew you’d be good for. But when you met his threat with a meek one word, sleep laced reply? All Jake could do was bring your head closer to his by wrapping his hand around the back of your head. His lips pressing against your forehead for a few seconds. “I really do think I heard something.” 

“I believe you.” Was all Jake said when he pulled away, switching on the light in the hall as you followed him out. “Come on, if anything it’s probably just the guys next door.” He was doing his best to calm your nerves. “You know how they like to dick around—come home all hours of the night before they barely make it in the front door.” Jake's bedroom and your own were upstairs, the staircase, which was only two flights if anything, seemed all the more daunting when you knew what you heard wasn't the familiar sounds of next door coming home late and messing around. 

“I know.” Was all you said in response as you fumbled down the stairs behind Jake, gripping in the elastic of his shorts that hung low in his broad hips. “Just didn't sound like a sound that I usually hear.” Jake looked around the entryway, his feet solid on the hardwood floor of the first level of his house. He could feel your breathing down his neck as you stood on the first stair of the staircase. “Shhh–” You tapped Jake's shoulder. There it was. “Did you hear that?” 

“Well if you'd stop talking for five seconds Fe, maybe I'd hear something.” Jake snapped, he was just tired, he wanted to help but god he wished he was in bed. 

“Jake–” You heard it again, it sounded like someone was walking along the front patio. Heavy footsteps loitering in a place they weren't supposed to. Jake's ears pricked up when he heard it too, frowning as he took a few steps towards the front door, dragging you with him as you gripped his wrist, trying to stop him. “No stop, there's seriously someone out there–” 

“Yeah and if there is it's three in the morning and they sho–” There wasn't much time to process what was going on before Jake was dive-bombing you into the floor. Sheltering you with his entire body as glass shattered all throughout the entryway. “Fuck!” 

If you took a left at the bottom of the stairs, there was Jake's living room. If you took a right at the bottom of the stairs, you'd make your way into the dinning area and kitchen. In the entryway? Two thin windows boarded the front door. They were both frosted, but the light that would come through really opened up the space. 

“Holy shit what the fuck was that?” Your eyes were as wide as sources as Jake hovered over you, protective arms on either side of you as he noticed the small cut on your cheek, probably from a piece of glass. Looking to his left, Jake saw the brick sitting in the middle of the foyer. Surrounded with broken frosted shards of glass. 

“Don't move.” Was all Jake said as he moved off of you to inspect the foreign object that shouldn't have been in his house. Turning it over, Jake couldn't believe his eyes when he saw what was written on the bike in red paint. ‘Whore’ turning the brick back over, Jake did the once over as you sat up amongst the glass. “You alright?” 

“I'm good.” You didn't know what else to say. “It was him wasn't it.” Jake didn't know what to say to you as he watched your gaze fall to the brick in his hand. “Who else would throw a brick through your window at three in the morning.” 

“We don't know it was him alright, just–” Jake knew it was Jaidyn, but he was going to deal with it in the morning. There was nothing he could do about it at three in the morning. “Go grab Odette, sleep in my bed the rest of the night.” 

“Where are you gonna sleep?” Jake Seresin would be the first person to admit he’d been a selfish man before. He’d put his needs before others on a number of occasions and he damn well knew that. His friends, especially the ones he flew with, would be the first to tell you how unreasonable egotistical Jake could be. But, when Jake saw your fingers dart up against the small cut in your cheek to wipe some of the blood that had escaped—he knew there wasn’t a length he wouldn’t go to, a corner on earth he wouldn’t walk to in order to keep you safe. 

There was nothing more important to Jake Seresin than his best friend. There was nothing more important to him than his best friend’s daughter. 

“I'm not gonna sleep.” It was the honest truth. Jake knew he wouldn’t be able to go back to sleep after this. “I'm gonna clean this mess up and see if I can find something in the garage to board that window panel up.” Reaching out to help you up, Jake groaned as his knees cracked. “If you can’t sleep just watch TV, but stay upstairs.” 

“I should probably help you clean up.” There was some level of shock in your voice, Jake could hear it. Your voice quivered when you dropped your head again to look at the mess around your feet. 

“Y/n?” With a fingertip to your chin, Jake forced you to look up at him—in the eyes that met his was a look of fear, a look of genuine panic. You were terrified. If this was Jaidyns minor what was his end game. What lengths was he willing to go? 

“Yeah?” But what Jaidyn wasn’t counting on was the lengths Jake Seresin would go to in response. 

“I wasn’t asking you, I was telling you.” Jake hissed, his teeth gritted as he clenched his jar, holding back the urge to run out the front door and met Jaidyn as his own—fuck him up beyond the point of return.  “Go get your daughter and sleep in my room.” 

***~***~***~***~***~***~***~

“Rooster, I'm telling you, I'm gonna kill him.” There's a lot that goes into getting Odette Dolan ready for daycare. Jake considers himself a pro when he's out the door with a whole five minutes to spare. Jakes strapping his favorite little girl into her booster seat that's nestled in the back of the car he’s borrowing from Penny. “He threw a brick through my goddamn window!” 

“It could have been worse Jake, at least the three of you are alright.” Bradley, at this very moment in time, had to be the one who kept his composure. If he riled Jake up enough he was worried he'd actually commit a crime. “How was Fe this morning?” Rooster had an early start, same as you, he'd been on base for the better half of two hours before Jake had even gotten himself out the front door. You had been gone even longer, a crisp five am start did not bode well after your three in the morning fright.

“Quiet.” Jake replied, Bradley could hear it in Jake's voice that he was holding the phone up against his ear and shoulder while strapping Odette into her booster chair. “What a low life honestly, he's lucky I didn't beat his damn door down and ring his neck.” 

“Alright, easy up Al Capone we’ll deal with it.” Bradley sighed into the phone as he took a bite of the blueberry muffin he'd picked up at the little coffee cart that usually opened far too early. “Just get Dot to daycare before you have an aneurysm. I'll stop by the workshop and see how she's doing.” 

“Kay, but I’m not happy man.” Jake was furious, he always knew ever since you showed up at his doorstep near dead just what Jaidyn was capable of but for some reason it seemed as though everything had been a figment of his own imagination. He’d never seen it play out before–until there was a brick in his foyer with the word whore written in red sitting amongst a sea of shattered glass. Noone got to call you a whore, no one but him that was, in the most loving way you could ever call your sister a whore. And more importantly, no one got throw a fucking brick through his window without consequence. “Odette could have been hurt, Y/n could have been hurt, I’m gonna stab him in the eye–” 

“You are not bro.” Rooster laughed, saunting his way into your workshop, sending you a soft wave when he caught you at your desk, a hard boiled egg half way in your mouth. “I gotta go, kiss Dot for me.” 

“Bye Tooster, love you handsome.” Jake replied teasingly before he hung up. Turning his attention to clipping Dot up. “Right, off to daycare we go.” Jake loved his drop off days. Tuesdays and Thursdays you'd start at the ass crack of dawn–leaving Jake to get your little girl to daycare. “Don't tell Mama but I put an extra babybel cheese in your snack box because I know you like those and those cucumbers just aren't gonna cut it, are they?”

“Nope.” Dot cooed, smiling back at her uncle Jake like he hung all the stars in the night sky just for her. “I dont tell.” Watching with a cheesy grin as Dot beamed up at him, Jake's heart melted. He’d lay his life down for you and your daughter any day of the week. “Mamma don't know.” 

“You and your mama are gonna be the death of me kid.” Jake chuckled as he double checked the buckles that kept Dot strapped in, ruffling her hair before he shut the door. “The goddamn death of me.” 

***~***~***~***~***~***~***~

“I'd offer to share my muffin but you seem pretty content with that egg Fe.” Bradley Bradshaw had never found you more attractive than he did when he saw you sitting at your worship desk eating a few hard boiled eggs for breakfast. He’d seen you naked, he’d held you in the most intimate of ways, but this sight right before his very eyes had topped the cake. Leaning in to wrap his arm around your shoulders as he kissed the top of your head. “Morning beautiful, heard you had a pretty interesting night?” 

“Oh god–” Rolling your eyes as you spoke with a mouth full of egg–you held a hand over your mouth to keep some of your dignity intact. “I didnt wanna be a bother Rooster, I would have called but–” 

“No need to explain–” Braldey understood, you didn't need to explain the ins and outs of your thought process. “I'm just glad you're okay.”it was a simple comment, but it made your heart skip a beat inside your chest. Smile butterfly-like movements made your stomach growl and you weren't sure if it was because you were starving or if Bradley had made your stomach do backflips. “Just got off the phone with Hangman, he's running early for daycare drop off, for once.” 

“Far out he was fuming, I swear I saw smoke coming out his ears at one point.” You teased, stifling a chuckle as you rolled your eyes and took another bite of your egg. Consuming the rest of it before wiping your hands on your overalls. “Will you be careful up there today?” Your voice was soft as you turned on your stool, allowing Braldey to stand between your legs as you wrapped your arms around his waist, drawing him close. “If Jaidyns throwing bricks through windows I'm sure he's gonna be just as manic in the sky as he is on the ground.” 

“I dunno if he’ll even get a chance to get up today if Jake gets a hold of the guy.” Bradley cooed, cupping your face between his hands. It made you laugh, genuinely. Although you feared for everyone around you and your own safety, the way Jake and Bradley were handling the situation just made you all the more confident in the fact this was where you were meant to be. “So, I'm not pressing eggy–” Lingering between his statement and his question, Bradley placed a gentle kiss against your lips as he tilted your chin up. “But have you given any more thought as to if you wanna ditch your current roomie?” 

“I thought I didn't even have to give you an answer?” You had already decided what you wanted to do, but that didn't mean it was the right thing to do. For once in your life though you wanted to do something you wanted to do, give into temptation. Working to slide your hands promiscuously down the small of Roosters back, trailing your nails down his ass. Watching with a wild smirk as drank in the expression Bradley gave you. One of lust and desire. “Or are you that obsessed with me you need to hear me say i'll move in with you Braldey Bradshaw.” 

“I was really hoping that that was going to be your answer–” Bradley was beaming ear to ear as he leaned in to take your lips hostage, moaning into your touch as you squeezed his ass cheeks playfully. “Because already emptied a bedside table for you baby.” 

“That's so hot.” Teasing, couldn't break the kiss even if you wanted to. Bradleys hands were roaming your body as your tongue danced with his. Standing between your legs he was quick to start undoing the buttons on your overalls. “Talk dirty to me more Bradshaw.”

“I'll even let you have your own rack in the shower–” Your hands made the journey from Rooster's ass to his chest, slowly undoing the buttons that kept his flight suit together. One by one you made your way down his chest–still drinking him in like he was the oxygen you needed to breathe. “If you're lucky.”

“Rooster–” The only thing that had Bradley stopping his assault on your mouth was the fact he wanted to give the little spot that sat right under your ear a little attention. Leaving marks up and down your neck as he did so, moving his hand between your legs, spreading them further apart as he stood as close to you as he possibly could. “Bradley!” It made you squeal when Bradleys hand came to rest against your core through your overalls, damn those fucking work overalls, they really were functional for all the wrong reasons right now.

“Yeah baby?” Rooster smirked against your neck as he felt all the blood rushing from his head down south, suddenly his boxer briefs had never felt so tight. 

“I really wanna fuck you right now.” You whispered as you turned to kiss Braldeys earlobe, pulling it between your teeth before letting go. “But I wouldn't wanna damage government property on government grounds.” For the first time in a long time, Bradley Bradshaw felt like a teenager, looking around in a frenzy to see if anyone was around out on the tarmac or walking towards your workshop. 

“There's not a soul in sight Y/n.” Bradleys cheeks were flushed red, he’d never been so needy before, your touch drove him crazy like he’d been deprived of touch his entire life. “Come on, i'll have sex with you, you wanna wanna have sex with me? There's a perfectly good couch right there–” 

“As much as I'd love to have sex with you at work, Bradshaw, I finish my break in two minutes.” 

“I only need one, come on–” Bradley had you up over his shoulder in three seconds, running you over towards the couch as you laughed and beamed as bright as you could. To you this was all the love you ever needed. 

“Rooster! All the blood in my body is rushing to my head! Put me down!” 

“Uh—am I interrupting something?” Phoenix chuckled as she made herself known. “I mean I can always come back later?” Bradley froze, still holding you over his shoulder as you slumped, letting your arms hang low. “But I kinda need Felix to check my oxygen valve.” 

“Sure Tash.” You sighed, wiggling out of Bradley’s grasp as he crouched. “Rooster, put me down baby I gotta get back to work.” It was with nothing but a reluctant sigh that Bradley did as he was told. 

“We can pick this up tonight back at our place can’t we?” It was a simple question that held so much promise. Bradley Bradshaw had never felt so whole before. Looking at the shock that plastered itself across your face, he knew he’d said something unintentionally. “What? What’s wrong?” 

“You said Our place?” He’d said it without hesitation, that’s what had really shocked you the most. “Don’t you mean your place?” 

“Well no Baby, if you’re going to be moving in of course it’s gonna be our place.” Bradley beamed, kissing your temple before to swallowed the reality he’d be walking around base with blue balls all day. “I’ll see ya later Fe.” 

“Bye—“ You chuckled, softly tapping Rooster on the ass as he turned on his heels. 

“I hate you and your bad timing—“ Bradley stopped to groan at Phoenix, adjusting himself as he did his Flight Suit up. 

“You’ll thank me later when you aren’t served a cease and desist.” 

***~***~***~***~***~***~***~***~

“Oh we’re getting big aren’t we darling girl.” As soon as Jake had Dot out of the car and settled on his hip with her purple backpack strapped around his shoulder, Jake's heart dropped when he saw Jaidyn leaning against the brickwork of the entryway of SunnySide Daycare. “Shit—“

“I tried to wait in the front office but the bitch behind the counter told me I wasn’t welcome.” Jaidyn growled as he pushed off the wall, making his way over to Jake as he held Odette a little tighter. Feeling her hand grip at the collar of his flight suit.

“What are you doing here?” With all the strength he had, Jake was civil. He couldn’t start an argument here, not in front of his nieces daycare centre even if every bone in his body was letting him to fuck this guys shit up. 

“I wanted to see my daughter, you know—the one you and that Bradshaw guy keep playing pass the parcel with.” Jaidyn spat as he tried to reach for Dot, Jake just turned his hip, making sure the distance between the man who never wanted Dot in the first place and herself was of adequate proportion. “I’m still her father, Seresin.” 

“Oh yeah? In whose fun house mirror?” Jake smirked as Odette held him a little tighter, she didn’t know her dad to be a good man. The world could be a scary place for such a small human being and she really didn’t know all that much being two. But what Dot did know though was that she felt in danger around Jaidyn Dolan. “She was never your daughter and never will be.” 

“Yeah I always had my fucking suspicions about you.” This wasn’t the time nor the place to be having a confrontation, not wanting to entertain it any longer Jake just sighed, readjusted Odette on his hip before pushing past Jaidyn to make his way into the daycare. Only for Jaidyn to try and reef Odetter from Jake's grip, stopping him in his tracks as Jake turned with wide eyes in shock horror. “SHE'S MY DAUGHTER!” 

“AND YET SHE'S TERRIFIED OF YOU! I'M THE ONE SHE TRUSTS!” Odette hated when those she loved raised their voices around her, her tears felt like acid to Jake as he heard her begin to cry and grip him tighter after she'd nearly been ripped from the safety of his arms. 

“Your mother is poisoning you against me sweetheart.” Jaidyn cooed as he tried to reach out and brush Dots head. She turned her face into Jake's shoulder as she tried to bury herself into him. “Daddy misses you princess, but i'll get you back baby, daddys gonna get you back.” 

“Jaidyn, I swear to Christ am not I’m not doing this with you here—“ Jake mumbled under his breath as he pushed the front door open. “Hi Melissa, can you call the cops for me?” Jake asked as he walked in, his eyes immediately meeting the woman who’d been there when you’d first enrolled Odette. An older woman who’d immediately had a soft spot for you and your little girl. “Tell them that there’s a guy in the parking lot who’s a danger to others.” Jake tried to keep his composure as he handed Dot over to one of the early educators who had been watching from the window.

“Should we call her mother?” He didn’t quite catch her name as he shook his head no. Passing over the purple bag. 

“I’ve got it covered, as long as he doesn’t come in the building I wouldn’t bother her about it, she’d only worry.” Jake smiled, crouching down to eye level with Odette as she stood holding the ladies hand. Looking at Jake all kinds of confused. “Have a good day Dotty, remember, that extra babybel stays between you and me, alright?” 

“Otay Jakey—“ Dot nodded, ever the good little girl she’d raised to be. Heading off with her early educators all the while Jake cracked his neck and clenched his jaw and wondered if this dickhead was really worth doing time over. 

“Lieutenant Seresin the police are on their way over.” Melissa croaked out as she watched Jake storm out the front doors, pushing his palm against the glass like it wouldn't buckle under his strength. 

“Bet shes not even fucking mine!” Jaidyn scoffed out as Jake approached him once again, now childless. “That fucking whore was probably fucking you on the side the entire time we were together.” it hadnt been the first time Jake had heard that accusation, but it had been a few years since the last time when his own mother had asked if the two of you had ever slept together. The answer always remained the same, no. “She always spoke so highly of you, like you were a fucking god amongst men, well guess what! I ain't letting you play daddy to my little girl!” One thing that really made Jake's blood boil to no end was the fact Jaidyn had the audacity to claim Odette as his daughter when he never wanted her in the first place. 

“If only Odette were to be that lucky.” Jake was quick to retaliate the claims Jaidyn spat. “My biggest regret was introducing her to you, you fucking cunt of a thing.” It wasn't that Jake had planned on starting an all out brawl in front of Odette Dolans daycare centre, but the opportunity had presented itself to him on a silver platter. Shoving at Jaidyns chest just to watch broad shoulders man stumble back a little. “You’re lucky you're not already in a hospital somewhere breathing through a goddamn tube!” 

“Careful there Jakey boy, we wouldn't want you tarnishing that golden boy aesthetic you've got going on.” It was as if a switch inside Kaidyn had flipped, the manically smirk he wore had been something Jake had never bore witness to. He, for even just a brief moment–was afraid of the lengths Jaidyn would go to in the car park of his daughter's daycare. “I should have gotten rid of you when I had the chance.” Any intention to start a war now was out the window, Jake was only planning on roughing him up a little bit. 

But when Jake saw the undeniable shine of a knife slip down after being concealed in Jaidyns flight suit, Jake backed off quicker than he would have liked to admit. This was far more serious than he ever thought it was. Sure you'd told him time and time again just how unhinged he was and how if he had the chance he'd kill you, but Jake for some reason thought that was impossible now that you were here in North Island surrounded by people who loved you and who would protect you. 

“Is that a threat?” Jake replied as he stepped back, tucking his sleeves up to his elbows. “Because if I didn't know any better I'd say that was a threat.” How this guy had been able to keep this level of physiopathy from the Navy Jake had no idea. The super glue Jaidyn must have used to keep his mask on tight needed more publicity. “But before you do anything stupid, Zeus, just so were ont he same page here–” Jake could see the police car rolling slowly into the car park behind where Jaidyn stood. “You will have to walk over my dead body to get anywhere near Odette, or Y/n.” 

“Mate, that can easily be arranged.” Jake didn't know what was happening until it was already happening, Jaidyn was coming at him with a common grade kitchen knife. With fight of flight kicking in, Jake ducked, sending Jaidyn over his shoulder and onto the gravel. “Fuck you Seresin.” 

“I'm out of your league.” Jake replied as he straddled Jaidyns waist, laying a few heavy hitters against his face, blooding his knuckles as the knife laid discarded under a nearby car.  He’d lost it, he was in it now. Blinded by a rage so dark it almost felt like Jake had tunnel vision as his fist came down against Jaidyns face. He knew this was what the guy wanted, but so be it for a few seconds of guilt free revenge. 

“Hey! HEY!” With arms pulling him up and off Jaidyn, Jake looked over his shoulder and saw two men in uniform. The police officers. For a moment Jake really did think they were just pulling him off Jaidyn to give him a breather, but when they didn't let up–Jake frowned. 

“Woah! Woah what are you doing!” Before Jake could even register what was truly happening, or the trap he;d fallen into, He was being pressed up against the back of the police car, with his hand pulled up and around the small of his back. “He had a fucking knife! The call was about him!” The cooling sensation of metal handcuffs kissed Jake's wrists as shock flooded his system. Holy shit this wasnt fucking happening. 

“Sorry Seresin, guess I'll tell the admirals you’ll be a little late this morning?” Jaidyn hissed as he spat a glob of blood onto the ground, his teeth were all bloodied which made his maniacal smile all the more gut churning as Jake looked at him with nostrils flaring and a clenched jaw over his shoulder. “I'll be sure to press charges.” With a wink, Jaidyn dusted himself off before leaving the scene, seemingly unrattled by the police officers who let him walk away with ease. This was what was wrong with the justice system. 

“This is such bullshit! He came at me with a knife!” with panic lacing his voice and a ball of fear caught in his throat, jake watched as Jaidyn made his way to his car, he watched as some o the early educators came out to see what all the fuss was about, he saw the looks on their faces and his heart sank into his chest. “Don't call Y/n!” He shouted. “Don't call her!” 

“Sir you have the right to remain silent, anything you said can be used against you in the court of law.” The police officer who had Jake restrained against the hood of the car reminded him with a gruff tone, clearly not amused by the Naval Aviator's actions. Jake had fucked up, he knew it. He shouldn't have played into Jaidyns game. 

“Fuck–!” 

***~***~***~***~***~***~***~***~

The lyrics to Hilltop Hoods “OOFT” played through your speakers as you worked on the F-14 that still sat in one of your bays. Standing underneath the fossil you teased Captain Mitchell about on a regular basis, you heard footsteps approaching from behind as you stifled a giggle thinking it was Bradley. 

“Back already?” It had only been about an hour since Rooster left with his tail between his legs and a hard on that was throbbing. “I'm busy Bradshaw, cut a girl some slack.” 

“Well if Bradshaws being a bother baby I can see he won't come near you ever again.” Your entire body shivered as Jaidyns' voice cut through the song lyrics. “Just say the words.” Turning around to face your ex, you held in a shaky breath, holding your ground because you were at work right, he wouldn't pull a stunt at work. “I miss you–” 

“Yeah, because throwing a brick through someone's window just screens take me back, doesn't it Jaidyn.” You couldn't have rolled your eyes any harder if you tried to as you pushed past him. “Listen, I don't feel comfortable being alone with you in my workshop, so unless you need something, I'd rather you leave me to work in peace.” 

“I do need something.” Jaidyn replied as he followed you back to your desk like a lost puppy. “I need you back, I need my girls.” 

“That's rich.” You said it just loud enough that you could hear it, but Jaidyn only heard you mumble. “I'm not interested, and as for seeing your daughter I don’t think that's a good idea without getting a lawyer involved.” 

“Let me guess, you're not interested because you've shacked up with that Rooster guy, haven't you?” You could feel the atmosphere around you shifting, Jaidyn knew he made you nervous, so standing a little too close inside your personal space gave him the advantage he needed. “And fuck a lawyer you self richious bitch, thats my daughter just as much as she is yours and if I wanna see her I have every right to.” 

“I'm at work Lieutenant Dolan, this isn't the place to be doing–” Jaidyn didn't let you finish before he was slapping you across the cheek at full force. So hard it made your head go with the force of the back of his hand. In shock you squealed, bringing your hand up to cup your burning cheek as your jaw remained slack. “I tried to tell Jake that this morning, but he didn't quite get the memo.” 

“What did you do to Jake!” You hissed as you turned back to face your ex, he’d begun to back you up against the nearest wall, a blood lust evanent in his dark eyes. “Jaidyn where the fuck is Jake–”  When your back hit the wall and Jaidyns arms came to grip at your forearms, pressing his thumb into the pressure points in your biceps, you hissed. “Ow–Ow you're hurting me.” 

“You know, I'm getting pretty sick of the way you're acting.” It wasn't a tone you were unfamiliar with, but it didn't make it any easier to listen to. “I really do miss you sweetheart, take me back.” Jaidyn was on another planet if he thought you were going to take him back after everything he’d done to you, but that was always the way, wasn't it, with narcissistic assholes like him? 

“I don't wanna be with you–” You sobbed, feeling Jaidyns hot lips against your neck as he leaned in. “Get off me!” 

“You know I really do feel for that Bradshaw guy.” Jaidyn sighed as he felt him sink his teeth into your neck. “He doesn't know what he got himself into with you, does he?” You couldn't hold back your tears as you silently sobbed. Jaidyns hand roaming your body, bringing flashbacks with them. You could feel yourself falling through the cracks, like discarded cigarette ash. “He doesn't know how to take care of you like I do and I really, really wouldn't want to see him get hurt–” You felt it before you saw it. The sharp point of some sort of knife pressing into your side. “So I'm gonna ask you one more time sweetheart.” Hot tears streamed down your cheeks freely and without hesitation as you tried to stop your bottom lip from quivering.

“Take me back?”

And now... the moment you've all been waiting for (or not, which is fine)! Let's talk Brawl Talk because OH BOY am I excited.

This is gonna be a pretty long post, so bear with me! I'll go over one section at a time and go over what I liked and disliked. Spoilers ahead! If you haven't watched the latest Brawl Talk, go do so! One more reminder, these are just my thoughts! You don't have to agree with me!

Without further to do... let's talk!

New Brawlers (Angelo and Melodie)

Now, when I first saw Angelo, I immediately went, "HE'S UGLY LMAO." After getting used to him, though, he's actually not that bad. His design is really good and is somewhat of an anti-cupid (perfect for a gal like Willow). Also, his voice actor did such a good job so much energy was put into him.

He doesn't seem like he's gonna be incredibly busted, but he is gonna be good in the right hands (while I'm at it pay your respects to Mortis Mains ya'll, they just took a major l with this guy). Sorry Larry and Lawrie, but you two are gonna have to step aside, I NEED this man as much as I need the next brawler.

I. LOVE. MELODIE!!! I did think she was a League of Legends character at first, lol.

Apparently, I've heard people say she is the first female assassin, which is very interesting! Out of the two, I feel she poses more of a threat. She might be broken, though her main attack is WEAK.

I've been through the Reddit and have seen so many people talk about how she looks like Janet, and I'd like to take the time to bring up a little theory... what if she was Janet and Bonnie's mom? I would go into this further, but we have to keep going!

Overall, I really like these two! Their designs are really good, and the character designers did a great job! Their pins and profile pictures show SO much personality! Expect some art of these two soon! However, if I may say something, I wish their skins were cooler. Why couldn't Angelo have a Sands of Time skin too? 😭

Speaking of Sands of Time...

Sands of Time and Ragnorok + Skins

Out of both seasons, I'm very hyped for Sands of Time. The "Sands of Time" is a very interesting concept that can be used very creatively. Can't wait to see what the animation brings! Though I think we all know why I'm hyped...

My best guest was that this skin was gonna be a Epic/Mythic skin, but a LEGENDARY?????? WHAT?????? Chuck fans we just fucking WON. I've seen the sneak peaks and heard his voice lines, Nicolai did an INCREDIBLE job as always. I'm am SO READY to go broke for this skin, but first, I must purchase some seasonal skins since they've been on my agenda for a while.

Loki Chester has to be the one I'm looking forward to getting the most for the Ragnorok seasons/skins. Plus, it's free! (If you have good luck).

Side note and honorable mention, Thor Bibi was just the icing on the cake for Bibi Mains this update. While I feel like a few more details could be added for this skin to make in truly "legendary," everything else about it great, including the voice acting! Poor Bull, he's the only one in his yet to get a Legendary Skin.

Ranked and The Report System

Okay, not related, but I love how they disses on the community a bit in this section, LOL. They know what, at least Reddit and Twitter are doing (and let's keep it that way, they don't need to know what's going on over here lol).

Anyways, while I'm excited (and scared) for Ranked with modifiers I wanna take this time to talk about a concern... the report system...

Now, I know there's a reason why we have 10 reports; but what's gonna stop so angry guy from reporting me if I didn't do anything? I feel like there's a chance this could backfire, that's all.

Hypercharges and Balance Changes

No Mortis or Poco hypercharge :(

Cordelius was definitely unexpected and very scary. Getting slowed in the shadow realm is a death sentence.

I wish Belle got a little more this update, but I'll take the hypercharge.

Move over Charlie, there's a new spider person in town, and he's a DINOSAUR.

Onto to balance changes. 84???? GOD DAMN. Adrien wasn't fucking around this update. Edgar is dead (and rightfully so FUCK HIM) and Doug might actually stand a chance in this Meta. I'll miss the days when Hypercharges were game breaking just for the community's rage, but it's probably for the greater good.

Whatever the Fuck the Random Skins Were

Now Primo Shark, I can take (though I'm definitely not gonna be able to take Baby Shark as a in game theme, I'm muting music for that entire time period). Pitcher Fang is a good skin too. Squeaky note is very... meh, but it's a rare skin so you can't expect much.

BUT POOP SPIKE.

POOP SPIKE.

What

the

FUCK?

It was tolerable until I saw the losing animation, and to that, I say EWWWWWWWWWW 🤮🤮🤮. WHYYYYY!?!?!? THAT'S SO NASTY!!!

I get that this is an April Fool's skin, but WHYYY THAT??? Thank GOD this skin is expensive. If I catch any of you with this skin, I'm gonna need to ask if you're okay. I don't wanna show a picture of this skin to you all, or else I'm pretty sure Tumblr would kick me to the curve. This is easily what I was least excited for for this update.

Overall Rating and Final Thoughts

Now, it's time to throw the final ratings on screen and say anything else that's on my mind.

New Brawlers - 9.5/10, definitely getting both! Let's hope they get some cool skins soon!

Sands of Time - 7/10, the concept and Chuck carry this season don't fight me on this. /j

Ragnorok - 6.5/10, I'm not as hyped, but I will grind for that Chester skin!

Ranked - 8/10, now I have a reason to actually play this mode. Hopefully, the report system is fair enough...

Hypercharges - 6.5/10, again not as hype, but I will be snatching that Belle Hypercharge since she's the only one out of the 6 I maxed out. She deserved more, though. :(

Balance Changes - 10/10, bye Edgar begone. F for the twins, however; I liked them.

Random Stuff - 3/10, not even Pitched Fang can save us from whatever the devs were on.

Overall Season 24/25 is...

8/10! (Poop Spike ruined it >:( )

And that's it. For those who have read to the end, thank you so much for heating me ramble it means so much. Expect some headcanons and more little theories soon (as in some time this week). Until then, ciao!

[raamitsu]

Hello! Just dropping in again to say thank you for the updates on the latest chapter and I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it (even if it takes you longer, take that time and I'm pretty sure everyone is gonna keep talking about 261 for the next two weeks anyways), cause that was one hell of a twist. I also don't get all the Yuta hate, like he's just doing his best! I'm sure he's not having a good time with this either.

Also I'm now officially very invested in Wind Breaker thanks to your blog, it's even more fun than I expected, just ticking all the boxes of what I want out of a series like that.

I don't know how to end this ask properly so just have a good day/night!

Hello, friend! Oh no problem at all 😄 Sometimes we can get lost in a translation, also there are also stuffs that I thought might be a great idea to share with everyone so I am only doing what I could.

By the way, thank you for your patience! I didn't expect anyone to wait for it, but knowing that you were anticipated to read my uncool thoughts helps me to get it done as soon as possible - even though I'll be taking my sweet time as usual. I'll dislike it if my words came off as cringe-y :(

Regarding the Yuta hate train and all that stuff going around, some of the takes from chapter 261 ever since it came out severed the fandom for a whole week and I refused to share any of them unless it was necessary.

YEAYYY I'M SO GLAD YOU HAVE STARTED BINGING WIND BREAKER!! I promise you it is a fun series! I favoured Sakura's characterization as the MC, though. I'm so glad the author is consistently nailing his job at it! but at the same time I don't want the "praising the author" curse to get to him 😭 I just hope it goes and ends well.

Now it's afternoon for me here so I wish you a great day!! Thank you once again and apologies for my delayed response 😞🙏🏻

[bombshelllblonde]

hiiihihii!! im backkkk to tell u abt my rdr playthough bc im bored asf haha

¡love this game omg!! the graphics, the story, the details UGH!!!!

hunting is actually so fun for no reason- i bought so many fancy ass guns too 😭

also my play type whenever i play ANY story game thats open world is to do every possible thing every except the actual story so i get a bunch of stuff and then its so muvh easier

in short i have 6000+ dollars 😋

bonus of exploring everything is i got thw white arabian and i love her sm ‼️‼️ i named her pearl and she is my baby

dress up is my seconf favorite hobby

my fav outfit rn is the red vest w the floral pattern on the front (i forget what its called) n the black french dress shirt underneath + the bison necklace talisman

(also arthur w medium-long length hair n short facial hair>>>)

this game is so detail oriented, its kind of insane- im doing a high honor run atm, and i came across the blind beggar for the third (?) time and the blind guy said and i quote

"that is which killing you will finally help you, friend- to hear and see."

is this foreshadowing this feels like foreshadowing

also ik arthurs dies (bc of tiktok edits and fics, they artists in this fandom is amazing!!!) and im not prepared at all 😭 im going to procrastinate so bad 

ALSO CHARLES DESERVES SO SO MUCH I LOVE HIM

yk the hole lil speech he has at the campfire yk "most human beings seem to know why they were born but, for me- its seems i was just mean ton hurt and suffer myself" that one

im bawling istg if he doesnt get a good ending im going to be writing a formal complaint to rockstar games

anyways

tw opinions (ik bro its crazy to have opinions in 2024 whattt no wayy)

ive gotten to the point in playing where im in ch 3, and the only way i can progress the actual story is to help micah rob a stagecoach or whatever

micah is a bastard and i dont like him

him as a character is rlly well written and awesome but,,,,,hes,,,slimy,,and i hate him,,,,so he can wait for a little longer ☺️

my favorite characters rn in no particular order is

arthur (obviously) , charles , sean , javier , tilly , marybeth , and kieran

my pookies ‼️‼️

moving on im so sorry this is so so long 😭 idk anyone who likes rdr irl lmao

anyway hope u have a nice day and no wolves attack you and spoke ur horse who bucks you off a cliff

(in rdr btw)

((true story also))

yo, having 6k in chapter 3 is amazing. good for you!

my first playthrough i got the white arabian and i named her Lemoyne Tree as a tribute to the state of Lemoyne and my favorite post malone song Lemon Tree. But she always got super dirty so i then went to the lake next to Strawberry and tamed the red chestnut arabian. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that one, she's gorgeous and arthur always gets that one when i play it. my beautiful baby girl Diablo <3

also yes. heckin FUCK MICAH BELL. even from the beginning he's been a slime ball. hate that man <3

i won't go too far, but just keep yourself high honor towards the end of the game. you need that to be your first ending. :')

Charles deserves the absolute world. just listening to him speak and hanging out with him at camp, and the missions you continue on to do with him throughout the game are so much fun. charles is someone i wish i could have in my real life because he seems like he would be the best person to speak to and hang out with. he is so lovely and down to earth. even arthur says it a couple times throughout the game. charles gets a good ending i promise.

my top blorbos are Arthur, Dutch, Charles, Hosea, and Josiah Trelawny my absolute beloved <33333 just wait until you go on the mission with Charles to find trelawny. one of my favorite missions ever ever ever ever!!

a lot of people dislike dutch, but i love him so much. he is my actual father. i love him.

i also hate john. let me know how you feel about that little greasy weasel of a man. :)))

i'm so so so glad you're having fun and i am very invested, so please continue to keep me updated on what ur doing because i need to live vicariously through you. if i could erase my entire mind and replay the game over and over again for the first time, i totally would

Next Course of Action!

Now that the remastered versions of Chapter 1 and 2 of YCTL are complete, I'll be returning to Chapter 31! I feel... content leaving the remaster at its current stage for awhile. It was never meant to absorb my entire focus. I just got carried away I guess as I really enjoyed revising for some reason, aha! (˵✧≖ل͜≖˵)

Before I can completely tackle that beast of a chapter though ( exaggeration ), I will be going away for the next two weeks. I'm not going overseas or anything, just out of town, so I'll still be active and will be taking my laptop with me - I'm just uncertain if I'll be able to progress much. I'll try my best, but progress might be slow until I return - just wanted to forewarn!

After Chapter 31 is complete and out in the world, I believe I may start production of an R18 Short Story for Yusuke's birthday. I wished to do one this year, but ran out of time and didn't really have a concrete concept. It may be too early to begin, I dunno, as it ultimately depends on how long C31 takes, but I do really want to have one ready and waiting as not only is it fun, my brain has also been "YCTL, YCTL!" ever since I returned, and I'd like to spice it up abit with some... spice. ᕙ(⌐■ ͜ʖ■)ᕗ

Only the future knows for certain, so we'll just have to await till then, I guess!

( His birthday is also really close to P3R's release, so... I'ma peace out when that releases like I did with FFXVI LMAO ¯_(σ ε σ)_/¯ Sorry... Only other game I'll do that for next year is Metaphor and Dawntrail [ Maybe Unicorn Overlord??}, so some reassurance, I guess? )

I will also ensure to complete that alteration/addition post for C1 Remaster, I promise! It's just whenever I sat down to do so, my brain would nag me with the notion I could just be working on C2, so... I caved. If I can't work on C31 while away, I'll do that instead so there's at least some productivity!

Anyway, that's all I wanted to say/update! Thanks for all of your support over the years, and I hope to continue bringing you joy with my work! ❤️💙❤️💙

I Get a Sugar Rush Whenever I’m With You - Chapter 2.2

Good evening fellow Drukkari stans, or whatever time it is for you! I bring you the next mini-chapter of this fic: aka Sersi comes to dinner. If you missed the last mini-chapter, you can read it here or start over from the beginning if you're just joining in! You can also find me on AO3 now, though I'm updating here more frequently. Anyway, enjoy the next installment of Drukkari in the Great British Bake Off!

Druig wasn’t lying about the extra copy of his recipe. As taken aback as he had initially been, he really was flattered that someone would want his recipe for anything. He was more than happy to pass it along and was even thinking of asking for Sersi’s rosewater macaron recipe in return. Fortunately, he was able to do just that at dinner, and Sersi agreed to send him a copy.

“Are we even allowed to do that?” Kingo asked upon witnessing the exchange.

“Definitely not before the challenge, but I don’t think the rules say anything about not sharing them immediately after,” Druig answered.

Good, because I want a copy, too! Makkari signed.

“I’m surrounded by delinquents,” Kingo sighed.

“I think it’s nice to see young people sharing recipes!” Ajak asserted. “These things need to be passed on, you know.”

“Sure, but I’m not getting kicked out for not waiting ‘til the end,” Kingo replied before getting hit right between the eyes by a flying crouton. “What the hell, Makkari!?”

We’re not getting kicked out either because you are not going to snitch! she signed forcefully.

“Okay, I won’t snitch,” he replied in exasperated defeat. “I don’t speak for everyone else here, though.”

“Of course we won’t tell!” Ajak jumped in.

“If Miss Makkari wishes it to stay a secret, I will not tell,” Karun added.

“Obviously I won’t,” Sersi said cheerfully. Druig and Makkari shared a celebratory high-five, and Kingo merely rolled his eyes before continuing.

“Okay, well now that we’ve all been sworn to secrecy, we may as well get to know each other better. Where is everyone from, and what’s your relationship status?”

“Isn’t that a bit nosy, Kingo?” Ajak asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Yes, but it’s more fun than asking what your job is. Besides, we’re all in this together now. Time to get intimately acquainted!”

“Very well,” she replied. As it turns out, Ajak lived in the countryside with her longtime partner. Meanwhile, Karun was married to his job, and Druig and Makkari were both single in the city. As all eyes turned to Sersi next, Druig thought he noticed the faintest bit of sadness behind her eyes as she announced, “I’m from London, and I’m currently single.”

“See? That wasn’t so bad,” Kingo said cheerfully. “And since I am also single and living in London, we can totally go out clubbing together and be each other’s wingmen!”

“Aw, thanks Kingo!” The sadness lifted a little.

“Although, it doesn’t seem like you need my help in that department,” he added with a wink.

What’s with the wink? Makkari signed with expertly feigned innocence. Druig did his best to follow suit.

“Oh, nothing! It’s just… she did seem quite friendly with Dane during the signature today.”

Sersi turned bright red. “Oh, well, Dane’s just really nice in general, I think.”

“And they did eat lunch together.”

Oh, that’s right! Makkari said, turning to Sersi with a mischievous grin. He hardly ever seems to take his eyes off of her.

“He’s not even the only one. You remember the guy from last week?” Kingo added.

“You mean Ikaris?” Ajak asked. At the mention of his name, Sersi’s eyes widened.

“Pretty sure he had his eye on her too. Too bad Dane got to her first.”

“Aw, then he got eliminated first!” Ajak added. “Now I really feel bad for him.”

On the other side of Makkari, Sersi had gone quiet. The hint of sadness Druig had seen earlier seemed to have returned as well. Makkari had noticed too, and she nudged Druig.

“Well, if Sersi doesn’t need you as a wingman, then where are our invitations?” he interjected, motioning to Makkari and himself.

Yeah, Kingo? she added, as she and Druig both stared Kingo down.

“Hey, it’s mutual agreement and I don’t trust either of you to talk me up to anyone! You’ve known me too long.”

“We’ve all known you the same amount of time,” Druig deadpanned, which prompted a few chuckles around the table and a small smile from Sersi.

“He has you there, sir,” Karun said.

“That may be, but this is me and Sersi’s first meal together. You’ve both eaten with me multiple times!”

“And me!” Ajak chimed it.

“Me, as well” Karun added.

“See? You’re all just proving my point,” Kingo claimed, rolling his eyes. “Sersi’s new to our group, so she hasn’t learned to gang up on me yet!”

“Well, if I officially join your group, won’t I also know you too well by next week?” Sersi asked with a sly smile.

Kingo merely put his head in his hands and groaned while the others giggled.

“That’s okay, I’ll still go clubbing with you, Kingo,” she continued.

“You promise?” he asked, looking up from his hands.

“Promise… as long as everyone else is invited, too!”

Kingo clutched his heart in mock hurt as he whisper-shouted, “Et tu, Brute?”

The table broke down in laughter.

-

After the others headed to bed, Druig and Makkari stayed behind to discuss their shared findings with Kingo.

“She’s guilty!” Kingo whisper-shouted. “She went completely silent when I brought up Ikaris.”

“I think that’s the natural response to being pressed about your love life in front of five new acquaintances,” Druig responded. “Besides, she doesn’t strike me as the vindictive type.”

Yeah. If anything, she seemed genuinely sad when you mentioned Ikaris, Makkari added. Maybe she still has a soft spot for him, in which case, she wouldn’t try to sabotage him.

“Okay, I guess that makes sense,” Kingo conceded with a sigh. “But what about Dane?”

What about him?

“Well, if I was getting close to someone romantically, I’d probably want to get their ex out of the picture if I could.”

How would he even know that Ikaris was her ex? We only found out after he was already eliminated.

“Outside of the people in this room, the only other person he could’ve found out from is Sersi herself, and she’s not exactly forthcoming about it,” Druig said.

He’s also been so busy paying attention to Sersi, he probably didn’t even notice Ikaris.

“Then who could it be?” Kingo asked, clearly exasperated.

“No one, because it wasn’t sabotage,” Druig asserted.

“How can you be sure?”

“Isn’t it obvious?” he asked. Kingo looked at him with raised eyebrows, still confounded. Even Makkari was looking at him curiously, waiting to see where he was going with this. “Ikaris shows up to a major competition, only to find out his ex is competing as well. On top of that, she starts getting close to someone new, and since he’s in the very back, he has the perfect view to watch them flirt the entire time. He’s so distracted, he makes multiple rookie mistakes, like using salt instead of sugar.”

They both looked at him for a moment, mulling over his words. Kingo was the first to break the silence. “Well, when you put it like that…”

Brilliant deduction, Dr. Watson, Makkari signed with a smile. Druig couldn’t help but smile back.

“Hey, I thought I was Watson!” Kingo interrupted.

No, he’s definitely Watson. And I’m obviously Sherlock.

“Then who am I?”

“You can be Mrs. Hudson,” Druig suggested, which made Makkari giggle and Kingo sigh.

And that concludes the mini-mystery arc of this fic! Unless I decide to bring it back :D Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this, and bonus points to you if you spotted my reference to another OTP. Likes, reblogs, and comments would be much appreciated!

[craicchapel]

Just thinking of you and had to see how you are doing. Hope you are able to take some time for yourself amid the chaos that is life. Wishing you all the best as you make your way to becoming a mother a two. Please keep us updated on things if you’d like to share. :)

Thank you so much 😭😭😭 this is so sweet! I'm doing quite well!! I've been running around with my head chopped off to get everything ready for another kiddo. That probably doesn't sound fun, but it's actually motivated me to get a bunch of other random tasks done that I've wanted to accomplish since moving into our place 6 months ago lol. I feel like I've done more in 1 month than I have in the past year lol.

I also quit my job in April which I NEVER foresaw. I'm kinda sad to walk away from labor and delivery because it's a wild ride and I enjoyed it, but it got insanely stressful and unsafe. By the time I decided to leave all but 2 of my coworkers on night shift had quit and well over half of the day shift left too. We were so understaffed and it was a nightmare. I kept having horrendous shifts where it was lucky that we had decent outcomes. I realized it wasn't worth sticking around a place that puts my license and people's lives on the line just to save money (for the higher-ups🙄). Once I was out of there my life became so much less stressful.

Other than that I'm just enjoying the extra time I get to spend with Charlotte . I got married in July with a fancy courthouse wedding lmao. Which honestly was great cause the thought of having a full-on wedding makes me wanna vomit. We finally picked out a name for this next baby. We're going with Gemma. We are middle name less at the moment but oh well. I'm 37 weeks and the last time I delivered I was 38 weeks so I'm just sitting here waiting to pop. I'm having major anxiety about delivering because last time was a c-section but this time I'm going to try vaginally. I've seen too much at work to not be nervous about how it's gonna go lol. I get one period cramp and turn into a baby so yeah...we'll see 😩😂. ANYWAYS that is all. Still obsessed with my cats, still have a guinea pig trucking along, and still a mess 99% of the time. Thank you for checking in 😘, I miss this site sometimes!

[khaleesiofalicante]

Hello!!!!! It's been a while! I disappeared for a couple of days and just came back to reblog some stuff and wondered what had I missed and I just saw you weren't here either lol. That's so valid of us tbh😎

But anyway I saw that these are some busy days. How are you??? I would tell you to get some sleep but you know what? I'm not even gonna try😂 Just eat something delicious and drink some water!!!

Mmm about updates... I went to a concert and I had a fucking blast!! I'm not really fan of concerts, but it was one of my favorite bands, and a gift from my sister so I had a really great time with her (Kinda sad I couldn't take Andrew with me bc he also likes that band, but I got him a sweater! And just later I realized I bought us matching sweaters lol)

I went to Sarah's house and also had a good time!! Who knew karaoke was that fun?!?! And I also went to a museum with her and Andrew the next day for some extra score (don't @ me exams are over but I used all the extra credit so I have to start again😂)

I've been kinda busy with school and work, so I haven't come here to rant about the last two chapters but honestly I have zero energy lately and I'm just waiting for this weeks to be over so I'll just tell you I loved them!!!! mavid are so fucking unhinged for this, but I stan bc they are amazing 🩵🩵🩵

I have a lot of things on my to-do list and I have to do a fucking interview in french for my final proyect so I'm freaking out😭. I have to finish it today so I hope I can...

Oh, and I've been talking to Sarah about things we want to do before we die (it can't be big things like getting married or having a house etc. It's just something small but meaningful) and I mentioned I wanted to dance in the rain with someone and yes, she found a moment when it started to rain and took me outside to dance with me🥺🥺🥺🥺

And that's it I think... Hope that May is over soon for everyone and that you can take well-deserved vacations!!!!

🩵.🩵.🩵.

I need to buy flowers for Sarah. Sarah deserves flowers.

I'm glad to hear that you've been doing a lot of fun things :) Here's to doing more!!

I hope you're getting some rest too and I wish you all the best with your exam! *makes french noises*

PS - I am still alive somehow despite this crazy month 😎
