For professionals, it can create a strong online presence that aligns with your personal or business brand.

Key Characteristics of a Clever Username

Before diving into tools and methods for generating usernames, it's essential to understand what makes a username stand out. Here are some characteristics of a great username:

Memorable: It should be easy to remember and spell.

Unique: Avoid common names or combinations that might already be taken.

Relevant: Reflects your personality, interests, or the purpose of the account.

Short and Simple: Ideally, it’s not too long or complicated.

Creative: Incorporates wordplay, puns, or unique spellings to make it interesting.

1. Use Word Combinations

Combine two or more words that are meaningful to you. For example, if you love coffee and cats, you could become "CoffeeCat" or "JavaFeline."

2. Play with Words

Incorporate puns, alliteration, or rhymes. This not only makes your username fun but also memorable. For example, "TechieTurtle" or "GamerGuru."

3. Include Numbers or Symbols

If your preferred username is taken, adding numbers or symbols can make it unique. However, ensure they’re easy to remember. For instance, "CreativeMind88" or "Artist@Heart."

4. Mashup Names

Blend parts of your name with your interests or hobbies. For example, if your name is Sarah and you love painting, you could be "SarahBrush" or "ArtisticSarah."

5. Think of Adjectives

Use adjectives that describe you or your interests. For example, "MightyMountain" if you love hiking or "SingingStar" if you enjoy music.

6. Check for Availability

Before you get too attached to a username, make sure it’s available on the platforms you intend to use. Tools like Namechk can be particularly helpful here.

Conclusion

A clever and creative username can be a powerful tool in your online presence. It reflects who you are and what you stand for, making you more memorable and engaging. With numerous free online tools at your disposal, generating the perfect username has never been easier. Whether you rely on these tools or decide to brainstorm your own, remember the key characteristics of a great username: it should be memorable, unique, relevant, short, and creative.

So, next time you need a username, don’t settle for something mundane or overly complicated. Use the resources available to generate a name that truly represents you and stands out in the digital crowd. Happy username hunting

Genie Glory the Game

(A [Very Late] Trade with @bigwishes. I hope you like it!) 43 followers. Rich Donaldson, also known as TF2Twink on Twitch, had 43 followers.Rich had been streaming for over 3 years now and only had 43 followers. 43 measly followers. It made him feel pathetic. It made him feel like he was useless. Yet at the same time, Rich was incredibly grateful for every one of those followers. 

Rich Donaldson had wanted to become a gaming streamer since he was a kid. It hadn’t really been a real thing until he was a teen, and most people thought he was crazy for thinking he could make money that way. Some people doubted it was a real job, some thought it was too competitive, some thought it was just a dumb idea in general. No matter what the reason, everyone in Rich’s life agreed that Rich wasn’t going to make it as a streamer. Especially his hyper religious, video game hating parents. Still Rich refused to give up. He knew it would be hard, maybe impossible, but he was passionate and felt like he had to follow his dream. That was what everyone in the movies did after all. Rich moved out, cut contact with his parents, went into debt buying the best streaming gear he could… and immediately regretted it. Rich didn’t mind losing contact with his parents. They had never been the most loving people, so he hadn’t really lost much. Except things weren’t working out like they did in the movies. Rich wasn’t making it, and worse than that he wasn’t getting any better at streaming. He was good at the games, so he knew that wasn’t the issue. The issue was… he was incredibly, painfully, horribly shy. Rich didn’t have the confidence that a streamer needed. He could barely get a word out during the stream without starting to awkwardly ramble, and even when he did he came off as awkward and weird. He wasn’t just unconfident, he was a downright nervous wreck. Still he didn’t give up. He couldn’t after everything he had thrown away to get this chance… all the sleepless nights working part time jobs to stay above water… he was in too deep. So he kept going “Hey chat! S-so t-today…” Rich took a deep breath, trying his best not to ramble “T-today I’m going to be playing a new game. I-it’s not very well known, but i-it looked cool and I’ve heard a lot of people are playing it… S-so let's get into ‘Genie Glory the Game!” Rich said, trying to be excited. Barely anyone was watching, and it was getting hard to pretend he wasn’t incredibly depressed, but he kept smiling. Genie Glory was a pretty simple game with a simple premise that had been baffling gamers for months. It was a pretty simple idea based on a classic scenario. You play a random guy who has discovered a genie’s lamp and now has 3 wishes. You make a wish by typing it into the computer, and the genie grants the wish, but usually in some twisted way that is accompanied by a pixelated animation of the player's fate. The goal is to get through all 3 wishes alive. What made the game so popular was that no one had beat it yet. Whatever AI the game used was incredibly clever and strangely creative, and to make it even more difficult, the game only allowed you to play it once. Popular streamers, actually geniuses, and even philosophers hadn’t been able to beat the game, so Rich knew beating it would make him famous.

“Ok chat. I-it’s time for our first wish… And I’m taking suggestions…” Rich said. Rich wanted to beat the game, but… he wasn’t sure how to beat this game, so he’d take all the help he could get. A few suggestions actually came across the screen ‘BasedBro69: Wish for your muscles to grow!’

‘GenieGay33: No way, that's the way to open ended! The Genie will make him grow until he pops or something’

‘MissTaken27: That's such a basic idea. Might as well ask him to wish to be a frat boy or something.’

Rich laughed at this. He knew most of his followers' usernames by heart, but BasedBro69 was new. Still the conversation he had started was kind of funny, and he figured… why not? “Ok then, why not! Lets make me a frat boy!” He said, snickering as he typed in his computer. He tried to be as specific as possible to avoid the spell being twisted “‘I wish I was an attractive, stereotypical frat boy.”

Rich laughed as he watched the pixelated version of himself grow muscular, his clothing changing to a tank top and backwards cap. He watched as the other version of him rushed a frat. Rich was certain something would go wrong, afterall he knew from first hand experience that hazing could get fucking intense, but surprisingly his character survived and got through the first wish without any incident. Rich grinned widely. Most people never even made it through the first wish, but he, a relative nobody, had managed! He stood up straighter as he watched people start to flood into the stream. He checked the chat happily. ‘GenieMan33: He actually made it with that wish? I’ll never understand this game, but good for you!’ ‘MisterRichD27: Kind of an ironic wish considering you are a frat boy. No offense.’ ‘BasedBro69: I fucking knew that would work bro! You can do this!’

Rich blushed slightly at MisterRichD27’s comment, and his flirty name. While he didn’t tend to think of himself that way, he was technically a frat boy. He had joined one after heading to college in the hopes of finding some friends. His frat brothers could be… kind of obnoxious, and very stereotypical, but they had helped him come out of his shell somewhat and even get in shape. He was still fairly shy, but he never would have gotten this far in college or with his streaming if it wasn’t for them. He chuckled at the chat, slightly embarrassed “I’ll admit, that was a weird wish, but hey, it worked so who cares!” Rich said cheerily “Ok, so what's the next wish going to be? I’m trusting you on this chat!” Rich said with what he hoped was a charming wink. ‘GenieMan33: Maybe something basic like money? That doesn’t usually work but you seem to be on a hot streak.’

‘BasedBro69: No way bro. He only gets to play once. Wish for something like fucking confidence or something. Something fun!’

‘MisterRichD27: IDK, Basedbro69 was right last time. Maybe you should wish for confidence?’ Rich shrugged. He could think up even more ways that this could go wrong, but this game had never seemed to work on logic in any of the videos he watched to prepare for this. So with a grin, he typed in his second wish “I wish I had the kind of cocky confidence that ladies love.” he said with a chuckle. He hoped it would be obvious that it was a joke, since his Twitch username, FortnightOtter44, made it obvious he was gay. He watched as the little version of him grew a big head, quite literally. Rich was worried this was leading to some type of game over, but his head deflated, his muscles grew, and a bunch of pixelated girls in bikinis ran up to the pixelated him. Rich grinned wide and tried not to cuss in celebration, not wanting to get demonetized (again). He had fucking done it! He fucking got past wish 2! He smirked as he watched the chat explode as more people tuned in ‘GenieStud33: Fuck yeah! RDH fucking did it! Knew you had it in you bro!’

‘MissRichD27: RDH is the best gamer ever! And the hottest! DM me!’

BasedBro69: HELL YEAH! You can do this bro!’ Rich, known as RDH to his fans, or RichDaHunk on Twitch, smirked, as he saw the comments roll in. He fucking knew he could get this game. He may not have been the most popular streamer on twitch, but he was a fucking good gamer and a total stud. He flexed his biceps, getting the chat riled up again in a frenzy of lust and admiration. Rich didn’t bother to look at the chat this time. He gave a smarmy, cocky smirk at the camera “I know what to put in next bros. I’m gonna wish for something fucking inevitable.” he said cockily.

He quickly typed in “I wish I was the most popular gaming streamer on Twitch”, and watched with a practiced cool confidence as the pixelated version of him gained millions of followers. The chat exploded with awe and wonder as what Rich had always known was going to happen, happened. He had won the game. He flexed his muscles for the stream, celebrating with his 43 million followers. He didn’t understand why they were all shocked. He was the coolest, hottest, douchiest gamer on twitch. Of course he fucking won!

I’m gonna start coining tumblr specific cognitive biases and logical fallacy terms…here’s the first ones I’ve theorized so far. (I’m using ��actor” here meaning “the person, acting out the fallacy or bias for us all to see.”)

1. The unique contribution fallacy—reading a post of over 10k notes and the actor thinks of something they surmise is very clever to add. The actor imagines themselves to be the first special unique soul to contribute this add, when OP has actually received this “clever” comment 5000 times of those 10,000 notes driving OP up the wall.

2. The whataboutism bias— reading a post on any given particular topic, and believing that OP should say every single thing that you could possibly say about that topic under said single post. The actor doesn’t know they have a personal agenda on the topic and expects OP would have that same bias to talk about the side of the given topic that correlates to the actor’s personal bias, instead of allowing OP to be somebody who just writes what they wanted to write. This often works in tandem with… 

3. The TLDR bias— seeing a post that is actually extremely long and thoroughly well written, often times with sources, numerous added threads of detail etc. but the actor doesn’t actually read the content of the FULL post. Then, in reblogging it or commenting on it, “adding” something that OP definitely originally said, and revealing oneself as somebody who doesn’t even read the detailed things that they re-blog or add on comments about.

3. The literal URL fallacy— not understanding the total chaos that is the Tumblr URL, in this fallacy the actor thinks that someone’s username is ALWAYS telling you exactly what the content of their blog might be. I’ll illustrate this one in like a totally random example way… Let’s say that you hypothetically made a blog that was all about calling out bigots back in the days of yore, the early twenty teens. And yet somehow, despite the fact that every other user around you seems to not be taken literally by their URLs, the actor decides that everything that you post is therefore bigotry…….even if what you’re posting is your own original content that you’re writing, calling out bigots. Too bad, so sad! Because in this fallacy, the actor is going to see you as what your URL says, literally, always.

4. The missed URL fallacy— this of course is the exact opposite of number three. It is where a blog has a very particular theme and format to it, that is the most important thing you can notice to understand the context of a post. So, again, just a random example here… But let’s just say that the intent of a blog is to always post submitted weird ass dreams people had, but the actor doesn’t realize this in their relogging and thinks that somebody is reporting a real life situation that was definitely, very specifically a wild fever dream.

5. The throw the baby out with the bathwater bias— a fan favorite among left leaning and social justice corners of the site, this bias is when the actor reads a post where somebody doesn’t use the most optimal, virtue signaling language for them personally, so the actor ignores the whole entire point of the post. It could be something as serious as and attention demanding as genocide, but somebody uses a word like “crazy” or “stupid” or “bitch” in it and so the actor’s worldview and general proclaimed values are casually tossed aside because the language that was used to deliver it was not “perfect.”

6. The choose your own reality bias—The actor reads a post and reblogs it, adding commentary that is responding to things that are definitely not said in the original post and definitely not anything in the realm of what OP was talking about. Close cousin to…

7. The this is definitely about me/self-own fallacy— this one is actually one of my favorites to spot out in the wild because it is SUCH a tell. It is like a slightly more specific version of the “choose your own reality bias” but this is when the actor reads a post and blogs it, adding commentary that is responding to things that are definitely not said in the original post as if OP is talking about them personally, and therefore revealing themselves as potentially shady or suspect in someway because why did they make it about them, if it’s not about them, you know?

8. The zombie post fallacy—in this one, the actor most likely does not have time stamps enabled on their dash because that isn’t something that happens here by default, and this site has a higher presence of zombie posts (by the way its designed and how it functions) than any other social media site I know. So when a zombie post from 2011 shambles across their dash in 2024, they react to that content as if it is completely new and relevant information or news or a situation to be dealt with in the modern era.

Hazbin Group Chat Fic, pt 1

* CharChar added PurpleFemale, SeXXXySpider, SssirP, Husk, NaNaNaNiff, and Alastor to “Hazbin Hotel’s Home for Imaginary Friends” *

CharChar: Hi, friends!

SssirP: But… but we’re not imaginary.

PurpleFemale: I think it’s related to some TV show on earth.

SeXXXySpider: Shh, don’t say the T-dot-V word or flat-face will come spy on us.

SeXXXySpider: Also wow @ Husk & Alastor.  We can totally tell who are the digital grandpas in this friend group.

Alastor: I beg your pardon?

NaNaNaNiff: Ehehe, your usernames.

Alastor: Yes?

NaNaNaNiff: They’re just your names.  Laaaame.

Husk: I’m not calling myself some stupid nickname.

SeXXXySpider: Bwahaha, two seconds, kitty.  I assume you’re down at the bar.

Husk: Oh god.

PurpleFemale: Run, Husk.

* Husk changed his name to KittyKat *

* KittyKat changed his name to Husk *

* Husk changed his name to NiceTryFurball *

* NiceTryFurball changed his name to Husk *

* Husk changed his name to WhiskeyWhiskers *

WhiskeyWhiskers: This… can stay.

SeXXXySpider: I win!

WhiskeyWhiskers: If you touch my phone again, I’ll break your fingers, brat.

SeXXXySpider: Weird kink, but actually not the strangest thing I’ve done so far this week ~ <3 ~

PurpleFemale: That… that’s not okay, Angel.

SeXXXySpider: ¯\_¯\_(ツ)_/¯_/¯

NaNaNaNiff: Awww, you gave him the extra arms!!!

SeXXXySpider: You know it, Niff.

Alastor: I’ve been here approximately three minutes and already feel my brain rotting away.  Charlie, what exactly was the point of this?

CharChar: Okay, so I figured even though we all live together that we still need a way to communicate whenever we’re not actually together.

SssirP: For what, exactly?

CharChar: Anything!  If there’s just something you want to share with the group.  It can be an idea for an exercise for us or a funny joke you thought of or just letting me know that the handle is broken on your bathroom sink!

WhiskeyWhiskers: Don’t all you fucks spend enough time with each other?  And I should know – I keep getting dragged along on your little misadventures.

SeXXXySpider: Bet.

WhiskeyWhiskers: What?

SeXXXySpider: Not the kind of bet you’re used to.

SssirP: “The term bet can be used in a few different ways on social media but generally means agreed or okay.”

SeXXXySpider: Bet.

PurpleFemale: Siiiiigh.  And here we have Angel, the perpetually online e-boy.

SeXXXySpider: Uwu?

PurpleFemale: Kill it with fire.

NaNaNaNiff: Eheheheheh.

PurpleFemale: Don’t actually kill it with fire.

NaNaNaNiff: No fun :-(((

Alastor: I’m still very confused.

SeXXXySpider: Just go with it.  You’ll catch on.

CharChar: Thanks, Angel.  I’m glad someone is immediately on board.

SeXXXySpider: (bb^_^)bb

SssirP: I’m not opposed.  I’ve never been in a group chat before.

PurpleFemale: Really?  You didn’t have one for you and your egg things?

SssirP: Giving the Egg Boiz cellular phones is a very bad idea.  Trust me.  A very bad idea.

SeXXXySpider: I’m so fascinated to get that story out of you someday.

CharChar: Angel, will you help Alastor change his name too?

SeXXXySpider: Iiiii will not.

Alastor: SmArT BoY

SeXXXySpider: Eep

PurpleFemale: Eep

SssirP: Eep

CharChar: Oh, come on, Alastor.  It’s part of the fun!  Here, bring me your phone and I’ll help you!

Alastor: I assure you that I am quite fine, my dear.

WhiskeyWhiskers: She gets a pat on the head and Angel gets a vague death threat?  Checks out.

SeXXXySpider: ^

SssirP: But it is kind of fun, having a different name.

PurpleFemale: What would Alastor’s name even be?

SeXXXySpider: Honestly, he’d probably go with, like “RadioDemon” and think he was being clever.

CharChar: I’ll come up with a list of ideas!

NaNaNaNiff: RadioRudolph

Alastor: No.

Alastor: And, my dear Niffty, why are you engaging in all of this nonsense?

NaNaNaNiff: Ehehehe, because they can text me whenever they find a bug!

WhiskeyWhiskers: There’s one bothering me at the bar.

SeXXXySpider: Hey, she already tried to stab me once.

SeXXXySpider: Also, the clue is in the name, baby.  Spider.  Not bug.

WhiskeyWhiskers: Only once?  Pussy.

SeXXXySpider: (ᗒᗣᗕ)՞

SssirP: Actually, that one does look like it has cat whiskers.

SeXXXySpider: (=^ ◡ ^=)

SssirP: Aww.

CharChar: You know, that does raise an important question!  Niffty, do you also go after spiders or only bugs?

NaNaNaNiff: Spiders are our friends!  They eat all of the nasty little buggies.  They tie them up and then suck them dry!

PurpleFemale: Angel, no.

WhiskeyWhiskers: Don’t do it.

CharChar: That’s….

SeXXXySpider: Don’t mind me over here deleting my half-completed text then.

PurpleFemale: Do you have any shame?

SeXXXySpider: ¯\_¯\_(ツ)_/¯_/¯

SeXXXySpider: I mean, they’re usually the ones doing the tying up, sooooooo

SeXXXySpider: Niff can be half-right.

Alastor: Regretting your decisions yet, Charlie?

PurpleFemale: About starting this group text or about life in general?

Alastor: That I shall leave up to her.

CharChar: This. Is. Fine.

CharChar: (Angel, if you need someone to talk to…)

SeXXXySpider: Thanks, doll, but my therapy comes in little plastic baggies.

PurpleFemale: Speaking of, we found the stash taped to the underside of the couch.  I believe that may have been the last one, yes?

SeXXXySpider: …

SeXXXySpider: My therapy is *supposed to* come in little plastic baggies.

CharChar: I’d say sorry, Angel, but I’m honestly not that sorry.

WhiskeyWhiskers: Good job, girls.

SeXXXySpider: Hey, Niffty, did anyone ever tell you that cats are a species of bug?

NaNaNaNiff: Nice try~

SeXXXySpider: You know, I remember someone did once call me “Whore Bug”

PurpleFemale: *Snort* What?

SeXXXySpider: Yup

SssirP: Ah, I did intend to apologize for that

SeXXXySpider: Eh, I punched you in the face. (งง ͠° ͟ل͜ ͡°)งง  We’re even

PurpleFemale: Wait, what happened?

PurpleFemale: Also, Angel, where do you keep getting all of those?

SeXXXySpider: oo(◕␣~)oo

PurpleFemale: No

SssirP: It was when I was still trying to help the Vees.

SssirP: Before I realized that Vox is a jerk.

SeXXXySpider: ^

WhiskeyWhiskers: Not gonna lie, that’s actually kind of funny.

CharChar: Remember what I taught you, Pentious?

SssirP: Ah, yes!

SssirP: Angel, I’m sorry I called you WhoreBug.

SeXXXySpider: Thanks IG but I’m not sorry for punching you.

SeXXXySpider: Also, I’ve been called worse.

PurpleFemale: Once again, Angel.  That’s not okay.

SeXXXySpider: I’m getting tired of typing the shrug

PurpleFemale: Or you could take your own trauma seriously for, like, two seconds.

SeXXXySpider: Or I could bury my trauma in sarcasm and ice cream.

WhiskeyWhiskers: Replace ice cream with bourbon and I’ve been there

CharChar: Note to self, see if Alastor can find a therapist for the hotel

Alastor: I shall keep an eye open, my dear girl

CharChar: Do you think Rosie knows somebody?

PurpleFemale: Do we really want a cannibal living in the hotel?

CharChar: The hotel welcomes ~everybody~

SeXXXySpider: Resisting. Urge. To. Make. Eating. Joke.

CharChar: See?!  That’s growth!

SeXXXySpider: Resisting. Urge. To. Make. Growth. Joke.

NaNaNaNiff: Hehehehehe.

SssirP: I actually don’t know what the jokes would have been???

WhiskeyWhiskers: Keep that innocence, bud

(Part 2) (Part 3) (Part 4)

[false-lycanthrope]

Ok well I recently came to terms with something that's related to why I've rethemed my entire blog but essentially

I've recently figured out I am not a shapeshifter and really not a werewolf either! I am simply just a regular wolf theiran like many many others, I just see myself as anthro rather than feral

But I am just a red wolf therian! Rarer species to find in the space but I'm still going to be general wolf posting, however I'm keeping my username because it's actually still fitting and very clever, because I am in fact a false lycanthrope of sorts

I fool you with looking like a werewolf but actually I am just a wolf who can walk on TWO LEGS!!! THE HORROR!!

But no jokes aside TLDR: I am just a wolf and not a whole shapeshifter and I recently accepted that :]

[carneliancorax]

Trying to form some coherent thoughts about Sherlock & Co.'s Scandal in Bohemia Part 4 but all I've got is AAAHHHHHHHHHH and incoherent rambling.

MAJOR SOILERS AHEAD

I still don't love them making Irene a murderer (even though it was for a good reason), but her story and characterization is so far a vast, vast, VAST improvement on almost any other adaptation, especially modern ones.

It's not how I would have done it, but neither are a lot of the other ways Sherlock & Co have adapted stories (not a moral judgment, just personal taste) and this adaptation is pretty consistent with the way they generally do things, rather than blindly doing Sexy Criminal Irene Adler.

It remains to be seen whether she will succeed, which will probably determine my final overall feelings for positive or negative, but given Sherlock said so confidently that he's going to win, I'm pretty sure he won't.

I generally prefer the route of the original story of letting Irene being just a normal lady who wants to live with her husband and cross dress in peace and also just happens to be very clever. But with the more overarching story Sherlock & Co is weaving (get it, like a spiderweb) I think the whole royal scandal is a really interesting direction and in keeping with enough of what makes Irene Adler herself for me to enjoy.

Also, echoing what another person said in their post (I forgot the username, sorry) I enjoyed how they explored Sherlock's discomfort with religion -- not being something he looks down on but just something he doesn't really know how to engage with. Especially since ACD Holmes had some really interesting religious views and sort of superstitions that rarely get explored in adaptations because people think Logical = Atheist.

Anyway I am trying to relinquish my apprehensiveness about Irene and I am genuinely really excited for the finale.

[lauren-no-why]

i’m sure you’ve gotten top five birds before😭🤭butttt how about top five birds of prey?

Good news, my top five birds are all birds of prey anyway unless I make myself pick other species hahaha.

This is not a ranked order, I love all of these equally.

American Kestrel - adorable, colorful, abundant, so clever, and the birds my username everywhere is a reference to ("longwings" are an older term for falcons, kestrels are just tiny longwings).

(source: incredibly funny photo from Leslie Morgan)

2. Cooper's Hawk. Zero thoughts just murder. Except that isn't true, of course - they're just a little neurotic and prey drive-brained, haha. They smell like sagebrush if you bury your nose in those feathers, they can practically swim through a tangle of blackberries to hunt a sparrow trying to escape them, and they're also very good at chasing down food on foot like a little velociraptor. Outstanding hunters with zero kindness but who needs that anyway. They're also remarkably adaptable, one of the few raptors that seems to have found suburbs to be a decent place to make a home.

(source: oh boy she's speedwalking look at her go, thanks Tom Murray)

3. Aplomado Falcon. Several of you know this already but in a past life I worked two seasons releasing captive-bred juveniles back into the wild in west Texas. They're gorgeous, they hunt in pairs, the juveniles are like goofy kittens that will play keep-away with clumps of dirt, and you haven't really lived until you've watched a wild female come visit your little half-brained fledglings and then hunt bats all evening at sunset.

(source: me! my idiots waiting in a box for release)

4. Ornate Hawk-Eagle. This is a bucket list bird for me, I haven't actually seen one in person yet! A stunning rainforest eagle from Mexico southward which basically has goshawk-like traits for hunting in dense forests unlike what most of our American eagle species do (hunting in open areas by soaring, or fishing). The "hawk-eagle" name is a bit silly - they're true eagles, but I guess someone thought they were hawk-like in shape and hunting strategy. They are certainly deserving of being called "ornate" though!

(source: Carlos Echeverría)

5. Harlan's Hawk - a subspecies of Red-tailed Hawk but deserving of their own special mention. Red-tails are already fantastic well-rounded birds with tons of variation, but Harlan's is truly unique. They breed in Alaska and northwest Canada and then come southward for winter, which is when most of us get to see them. They're generally black and white, often with no red anywhere even as adults, and what makes them truly stunning are their tail patterns. No two Harlans are alike - I think they're a better example than snowflakes when it comes to variety!

(source: Neil Paprocki. This bird has been captured for banding and research purposes and shows a great example of a "typical" Harlan's tail - which is to say, very atypical for any other Red-tailed subspecies!)

Hey guys, sorry for the accidental hiatus. I recently started a new job and moved into a new house due to some personal reasons that I will not get into on this post, as I would like to show a bit of creator and personal life boundaries. I hope you still find this post as enlightening as I have when I realized this information about four days ago.

Now, I do not recall if I have explained a bit of my craft's background and what types of witchcraft I happen to practice, but I will inform you that I do practice a bit of baneful magic and a bit of green witchcraft. I do hex or curse when I deem necessary and only when I feel like a person deserves it. For those that are curious, my craft is as my username states, I fall under the category of "Eclectic" when it comes to witchcraft.

Coming back to the main topic of this post, when I realized this tidbit of information, I figured it would be perfect for a comeback post for those who happen to hex and curse, and for those who have been curious if I have still been learning or practicing in my spare time.

When I stated that I practice a bit of green witchcraft, I wrote this bit of information to include the fact that I collect some animal parts when practicing my craft as much as I collect gemstones and herbs. I have seen other green witches incorporate animal parts into their craft, and thus I feel comfortable doing so within my own craft as well. Do not worry, I am not into animal sacrifice, and I collect animal parts ethically.

If you don't happen to hex or curse, that is no big deal. I respect your choices and your craft, and therefore, you can just take this post with a grain of salt. You do not have to worry about me shoving this information in your face, as I am just putting this out there for people to read and gain some knowledge. A witch's craft is to each their own.

For those who do hex and curse or practice baneful magick, I welcome you to check this tidbit of information out, as I feel this is kind of clever and a great way to find an easy hex or curse ingredient as the warm months arrive and tick season is on the rise.

When one thinks of ticks - the arachnid, not the neurological disorder - what does one typically think of when it comes to magical properties? The biggest one that came to my mind was parasitism and annoyance. Key notes of information, when I am discussing ticks, I am referring to all ticks as a whole species, as I have yet to see a difference in which ticks offer a better source of magical potential.

A tick gets its main food source from the blood of other mammals without the benefit of the host; thus, parasitism, and therefore, a tick would happen to be a good ingredient for a leech hex or for an annoyance hex, as from another point of view, ticks can also represent annoyance due to it just being a pain in the butt to remove them or just have to deal with them in general.

I will admit, I am tinkering around with a money leech hex, however, I have yet to test it out, as I do not see the need to test the hex on someone who doesn't deserve it. Meaning, I have yet to run into someone that I deem deserves to be a test subject. I will give some more information on this hex and ingredients for it on a later date, and will provide more information once I have perfected the spell for my own craft.

Now I don't have any key information on how to go about collecting ticks without risking Lyme disease. I will, however, suggest that finding a tick on a pet or on yourself would probably be the best way to collect one. But I would like to add a disclaimer that I believe there are pros and cons when it comes to collecting ticks, as the biggest con is that certain species are known to contain parasites, and the previously mentioned Lyme disease. Thus, make sure to remove a tick from your body or pet as soon as possible, or even remove them from your skin or clothes as soon as you see one.

For the purpose of safety, I will also add some protective tips if you just happen to want to go on a nature trail and would like to avoid ticks entirely. These tips include: wear bug repellent, avoid low branches and tall grass, stick to trails, and wear light colored clothing as most ticks will be seen more easily.

I will also include some information on Lyme disease in case a tick does latch onto you or a pet, and you would like some information. Lyme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted through the bite of an infected deer tick, also known as the black legged tick. Early symptoms include fever, fatigue, headache, and a rash, but if left untreated, Lyme disease can spread to joints, heart, and the nervous system. Most cases can be treated successfully with antibiotics. The tick must be attached for at least 24-48 hours to transmit the bacteria. Not all ticks carry the bacteria, and a tick bite doesn't always result in Lyme disease. Borrelia burgdorferi and Borrelia mayonii are the bacteria that cause Lyme disease in North America, and Lyme disease can be found in the Northeast, mid-Atlantic, and upper-Midwest regions of the United States.

Now that you have been given both spiritual and scientific information on ticks and their dangers they can pose, I would like to finish this post off with a reminder that I do not condone using yourself as a way to collect ticks and would like to remind you to stay safe when collecting ingredients, especially life threatening ones.

As always,

Blessed Day, Blessed Morrow, and Blessed Be,

-Jean

So I finally got the chance to watch Damien's stream on twitch today and it was wonderful.

I normally don't catch them because of timezones and he literally started just as I finished registering for my university classes this semester, honestly today was a pretty great day.

And the stream was wonderful, the clever coup are so nice and generous, fizzthepup even gifted me a sub, which was crazy. I've never used twitch before so this was such a great first time experience. It was so fun and light and sweet and I really enjoyed it.

One thing that will haunt me until next week at least is that I completely forgot that my twitch was still under my old username. I like to have the same username across all my accounts, I completely forgot to change it and when he said it, I disintegrated. Partially because hearing an American man say "pengblackgirlorjustlexi" sounded insane and was funny as fuck, but also because I created when I was 16 as a reference to a song(that I do still like but certainly not as much).

I don't know why, but it felt like having my (nonexistent) diary read out loud. Truly 'Peng black girls' was the song of the summer at my school. And it is good, I legitimately love it, but it also does not feel like me anymore.

Anyway, that's all to say, I will be watching every Sunday stream from now on. Under my correct name. And it will be fun as hell I'm sure.

Who I am and what I write.

I've had a lot of new followers lately, and I haven't really introduced myself yet. I'm Tiffany and I write fanfiction under the username Vampiremama (Or Readingmama on FF.net but I'm moving away from posting there) I have several GO fics of varying length right now. I have included some info below if you are interested in checking any of them out. I am working on a new very angsty AU that will post after my current one, so if you like dark and gritty with a HEA, stay tuned for that one as well. Seaside Rendezvous Rated T Set after S3. Crowley take their first Vacation only to find an uninvited tagalong. Prompt fic for a gift exchange. Hidden Canvases : Rated E AU, Human. Enemies to lovers. Excerpt: (Aziraphale POV) Of course, a man like that would also be gifted with talent. Just another example of the world giving all the best things to the wrong people. Aziraphale tried to be a good person; he wanted to be kind and gracious. And he was. But it didn’t come naturally. It was a learned skill, and people like Crowley reminded him just how much of an effort it really was sometimes. But being kind didn’t mean being a doormat or to watch his friends be abused by callous, big-city men. Sometimes, the kindest thing he could do was to just avoid a situation. Besides, he would only have to see Crowley on Saturday mornings at his class. And even that was limited. He was only there for the summer. And maybe he wouldn’t come back.  Cake by the Ocean. A Guess the Author Prompt from the Soft Omens Discord group. 500 word limit, the prompt: Cake. Rated General Audience. Aziraphale Crowley has been hiding something from him. A Dirty Dive Bar. A very naughty one shot. A tryst in a dirty dive bar leaves our ineffables very satisfied. Rated E Excerpt:

As soon as Crowley was through the door, Aziraphale pushed him back against it. He reached and clicked the lock in place even as his lips made their way to Crowley’s. Crowley wrapped his arms around Aziraphale, his surprise at the sudden change of events only throwing him off guard for a moment, and he plunged his tongue into Aziraphale’s mouth. And, oh, was his tongue a revelation. Such wicked things he could do, Aziraphale thought.

Aziraphale felt his heart hammering in his chest as he broke the kiss, his hands going to Crowley’s belt.

“I thought I was the one seducing you,” Crowley said, panting, as he watched his trousers be pulled open.

“Consider me seduced, “ Aziraphale retorted with a wave of his hand as he slid down to his knees. “Although, I’m a little embarrassed at myself, those pick up lines were horrendous.” The Lies I Would Tell for You: My second Season 2 fix it. This one is longer and more angst filled compared to Mistakes Were Made. Different plot ideas, and HEA outcome. Rated E Excerpt:

Crowley sat staring at the wine glass on the table. It seemed like a right shame to water down the wine, but he needed the look of the wine to calm his nerves, trick his brain. Steady his nerves. Had it really only been a month since he and Aziraphale had started the bottle. It felt like ages ago, but every minute since Aziraphale left with The Metatron had felt like an eternity. He thought maybe after a day, Aziraphale would come to his senses. Deep down, Crowley knew that the angel would put his duty above all else. Together, they had found ways to cut the corners, but now that he was alone, Aziraphale would be by the book. It wouldn't take him long to forget. Six thousand years wasn't all that much time in the scheme of forever. 

He picked up the thermos. It hadn't been hard to get Muriel to fetch him more. They were a much easier mark than Aziraphale had been. But also less fun. He was so clever but also so curious. He was perfect. 

Crowley thought about what his existence would look like now. No Hell; he was free of that. He had Earth, and he did truly love Earth, but it was tainted now. His love of Earth was wrapped up with his love of his angel. It weaved through his life in what once felt like a beautiful vine and was now a type of cancer, eating away at everything inside of him. 

He unscrewed the lid off the thermos and topped his glass off. Steeling his nerves, he lifted his glass, his eyes swung heavenward, and he cheered.

"To the world." The Cuddle Cafe: A warm hug in fic form.(One Shot) Set during the years where they took care of Warlock. Crowley is so touch starved he stumbles into a professional cuddle cafe. Rated T Excerpt:

Like a beacon, a neon light caught his eye from a building across the street. The sign read Cuddle Cafe. Crowley stopped and stared, and then looked around him to see if anyone was staring at him staring.

It wasn’t like he could go to Aziraphale and ask for a hug. Angels didn’t hug. Hell, demons didn’t either, but here he was, feeling the need for a kind touch. He could just walk across the street and go in, get what he needed, and get out. He could even smile at the human just so they wouldn’t feel too uncomfortable.

No, it was ridiculous, Crowley thought as he found himself walking through the door.

Mistakes were Made: Rate T. A quick Season 2 fix it fic. Excerpt:

“You don’t understand. I need to speak with God,” Aziraphale demanded, but his voice went too high and it sounded more like begging. Which was probably closer to the truth.

“Do you have an appointment?” the angel asked, looking up at him from behind her desk.

“An appointment? With God? Is that a thing I can do? In that case I would like to make an appointment as soon as possible.”

“You can’t make an appointment with God,” she looked at him like he was daft. “God makes an appointment with you. Of course She hasn’t made any appointments with anyone yet, but I’ll let you know if that changes.”

More stuff about the Demigod au

So the Demigods go to their own school that is called Divine academy (thanks @insert-clever-username-1133 for the idea!) and it takes up hald of the Sov while the Royal academy takes up the other half as shown bellow:

the map shows the duchy dorms and the Godly dorms in their duchy/godly colour, how do the godly dorms work? Say for example your parent is Angriff, God of war, since he's a subordinate of Lidenschaft, the demigod will go to the Leidenschaft/blue dorm. The Red dorm on the outer edge is Geduldh's dorm and that's where all the student's who's parents who aren't subordinates of the supreme couple or the Eternal five (well, four in this case) such as childen of apprentice gods or even Chaocipher.

The schools are connected at the large circle where the garden of beginings are (and a long corridor) where Nobles could get their schtappes and demigods could go talk to Erwaermen to get news from their godly parents, bet the tree gets lonely, so now he gets to talk to a bunch of students~ Aren't I so nice? :)

There are 2 aus I'm imagine:

Nobles fogot demigods exist and due to magic and the hall that connects the two sides of the schools get sealed up, only the connection to the garden of beginings remain but nobles and demigods dont go through the other's eist, also Nobles can't see pass the blue line cuz there's this heavy fog but the Demigods could see just fine

Demigods and Nobles co-exist and know of eachothers existance, and while plenty of nobles look down on the demigods for their commoner background, lines of communication are still open between the two groups and there's no heavy fog stopping the nobles from seeing the demigod side or any wall from stopping them from mingling

For the sake of this post, let's go with the second option where demigods are remembered.

The Leidenschaft and Dunkelfelger's dorms are very close so they have ditter atleast thrice a week (Where Leidenschaft dorm wins almost every single ditter).

The Cuococalura kids (and kids of Cuococalura's apprentices) all get together to make breakfast, lunch and dinner for all the Godly dorms.

Kunstzeal and Vulcanift (plus apprentice) kids are in charge of the decorations

and those whose parents are responcable for harvest and hunting and blooms and stuff grow the food or hunt feybeasts for the meals.

Demigod-nobles, who's mortal parents are nobles are expected to finish their studies as fast as possible and then spend atleast 2 days a week on the demigod side of the RA/DA.

Also, while plenty of nobles look down on the demigods for their commoner origins, plenty more nobles order their children to make demigod connects or to even marry a demigod because of their high mana capacity and high attributes and bits of their godly powers shine through in the next generation.

E.g. A Drewanchel archnoble or archduke candidate might be told to woo a child of Mestionora or those of Dunkelfelger might try their luck with someone from the Leidenschaft dorm or a child of Leidenschaft even.

Imagine Rozemyne, who isn't a demigod but people think she's a demigod anyways cuz of her uncanny resemblence to Mestionora and her love for books ends up in the DA: Rozemyne: I don't think I should be here... I'm in the wrong place.. Student: Nonsense! You're at the right place! Rozemyne: I'm really not- Student: hushes her shhh... It's ok... It can be very hard being away from your parents firstie... Would you like to read the book from our library? Rozemyne: Remembering how sylvester said she can't go to the library until everyone passes Nevermind! I'm in the right place! I'd love to read!

Also, fun little snippit between a Dunkelfelger Archnoble and their Child of Angriff Fiance:

DA: What should we do for our wedding? CAF: Well we must have a celebratory ditter to celebrate our engagement DA: Ofcourse Dear CAF: And our pre-marriage because it's commoner custom to celebrate becoming married by having a bachelor party with our friends and what better party than a ditter? DA: Couldn't have said it better! CAF: Then we shall have an after marriage ditter where all the guest will participate DA: Lovely idea~! Shall we have a honeymoon ditter? CAF: But ofcourse! But first, we must have a pre-honeymoon ditter so we could come to a decision on where to spend our honeymoon! DA: Swooning marry me already! CAF: Not before our engagement celebration ditter or our pre-marriage ditter!

🍄 , ☁️ , and🥤 for the ask game!!

🍄: share a head canon for one of your favourite ships or pairings

one that’s currently pushing its way onto the page is the intricacies of the odesta situationship era…I think it was objectively not a good time for either of them, but they were in some crazy situationship for about six ish months that culminated in a really, really hideous fight because they both had intense feelings for each other but for their own reasons weren’t acting on them, and after that point it was basically time for Finnick to go all in and confess his feelings or end it. and he decided to commit but he processed and made that decision in what’s imo one of the weirdest ways possible, and what’s awesome is that I wrote an entire fic (Caramel) about that. it’ll be up on Monday

☁️: what made you choose your username?

the Lore…I was listening to Giving Up by Ingrid Michaelson in 2011 as I was creating my ff.net profile and heard the lyric “I’m giving up/on greener grasses”. the phrase ongreenergrasses stuck in my head because I was in the pits of suicidal depression at the time but I said you know what. I’m not actually giving up on greener grasses. I am going to make it to the greener grasses, lol. very angsty and cheesy of me, but it suits me and so I am ongreenergrasses now and forever

🥤: recommend an author or fanfic you love

can I. can I rec you? everyone go read the fics by beloved dayne @thefloatingwriter, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying them recently because of the insight, care, depth, and incredible worldbuilding put into the work. and they’re also very clever narratively

my annoying disclaimer: I don’t tend to do general fic or author recs because everyone’s taste is so unique and personal and also fic rec lists are just a total popularity contest…plus I have accepted that while many people have me blocked and I am just a blip on many others’ radar (if that), I am no longer a complete unknown. my word does have some sway and that’s something that I do feel is kind of a responsibility.

writer’s truth or dare

[planetkiimchi]

random little tag game because i'm bored and i promised to be in ur inbox more often! 😋 assign your mutuals a fictional character!!

hi aspen <3 this is me giving u a HUGE kiss on ur forehead!! i missed these kinds of games tbh we should definitely bring them back. i was goong to give everyone a fairy from the tinker bell franchise, but then i kind of ran out of options and the list was getting long, so here's the part 2 (different moots) where i assign each moot a character from "the seven husbands of evelyn hugo".

for you, my love, i'm giving you iridessa the light fairy! you bring so much warmth into my life, and just like you're iridessa, you're great at holding conversations and discussing your interests.

axe / @blue-jisungs: this is quite self explanatory but tinker bell HAHA. somewhat chaotic energy but also very fascinated by many different things (like how u know so many languages!) very joyful and skillful

zanna / @slytherinshua: vidia the fast flying fairy. a little bit because you're super fast in replying / reblogging, but also because she can be harsh with her words but she always means it with love in the end. she cares for her friends, even if they're foolish sometimes :)

val / @orikiys: this is a little bit related to your old username haha (bc fairies) but i'd say silvermist the water fairy! she has a very sweet, mediator-ish personality and i just think somehow you're a little bit like that, kind of gentle and unconfrontational <3

rania / @wheeboo: rosetta the garden fairy for sure. not just because your theme is a garden theme but rosetta is a very... creative person? she makes the other fairies laugh sometimes with her vanity but i think in general she's definitely a loyal person who'd always be there for her friends :)

yena / @fairyhaos: well my emoji for you is already a crown but i'd say queen clarion. she's very regal (like you) but very motherly and gives super good advice (htfw series). she's also a reasonable and just ruler and i think that's a little in line to how strong you are when it comes to your morals!

shu / @welcometomyoasis: hmm i'd give you fawn the animal fairy! i thought about this for a while but i think fawn is on the introverted side and takes good care of animals, the same way you're always encouraging me to take good care of myself! she isn't shy in giving compliments, which is def the vibe i get from all your reblogs of works you've read

seok / @realparkminkyun: well this is a little skewed because i only really know terence the tinker fairy well among the male fairies, but i'd say you're similar to him in how he's an emotionally transparent person and enjoys staying in his lane.

rae / @reikaryu: elizabeth the child! she's a crafts kind of girl, curious and gentle, which i think you are too. she's easily excitable, but also clever and idk i just think you remind me of her <3

ren / @mygnolia: zarina the pirate fairy (her power is changing people's powers with her fairy dust? i kind of forgot) because you're music-loving, humorous and a little intimidating sometimes.

hana / @wqnwoos: periwinkle the frost fairy! she's a little dreamy, curious & seeking to explore. she looks like she'd enjoy poetry and warm sweaters and hot chocolate, just like you.

[kimithewitch]

Hi I’m KimiTheWitch, I am a furry artist. I make comics and memes. You maybe seen her:

This is Gene Martinez, DEATH GIRL

Why is she called that?

GREAT QUESTION! Gene was born in a secret lab with the purpose to kill all witches. This backfires as Gene is transgender and also a witch and a furry and lack accountability and has no respect for authority. This is why she’s in HELL

Why are the Hell Girlz in a union?

I personally love the saying “Hell has no fury like a woman scorned” it’s kinda true if the feminine rage is strong enough then nothing can stop a girl from getting what she wants not God or even the Devil.

What does the union do?

These girls have a direct line to Satan and carry out various afterlife acts of labor such as: reaping, demon hunting, torture, and idk what else yet

If you are gay why is being gay a sin in your comic?

Mostly wanted to show off the effects internalized homophobia and institutional violence and harassment.

What is the deal with the name/number/girlname?

This is my way of abstracting real fears that people have in the modern world about being doxxed/stalked/harassed. So their number is literally the value of their soul. It’s kinda playing off of DBZ power levels where they measure your Ki which is just your spirit/energy/dependswhoyouask. But if they know your number they can choose to judge you and perhaps intimidate you. The name is just your name your real name the name that you are whether it was chosen by you or not it’s just the name you identify with. The girlname (or nickname there are other genders in the comic too) is your alter ego, so like a username or hero name. In this world everyone has psychic potential. So creating layers of mystic with a strong soul and a clever name goes a long way.

If someone were to know more about you than you know yourself they could change you. And in this comic the characters generally fear change because nobody knows what can happen in Hell.

Who is your favorite?

I would say Purity Girl aka Angel Santos. She’s my favorite because she’s green.

Expect some more comics soon. If you’re offended by the politics then I suggest you try making comics while being 2 steps from homeless (I wish we were kidding)

I feel like everyone hates MAGA tho. And I love Luigi.

We draw all this by hand so forget about AI

[call-me-double-trouble]

💚

Sorry it took me so long to get to this! I have had ZERO free time recently.

I want to talk about WrongTrouble, AKA, Wrong Hordak x Double Trouble. It was the first DT ship that I liked, and I think it has really cute potential. As another Tumblr user put it (can't remember their username, sorry!), WrongTrouble could be like the Roger and Jessica Rabbit of the SPOP universe. I know a lot of people like this ship, as well, so let's get into it!

Long post under cut.

Aside from how cute they'd be together, I think a big reason a lot of people ship them is because Wrongie and DT are among the only of the cast that don't pair off with anyone at the end. Adora gets Catra, Glimmer gets Bow, Perfuma gets Scorpia, Mermista gets Sea Hawk, and even Hordak gets Entrapta! Lonnie, Kyle, and Rogelio have a polycule situation going on, Huntara is PROBABLY living her best lesbian life, and Swift Wind is a horse. There aren't many hot singles available in their area after the finale.

However, Wrongie and DT don't have a "there's no one left, so you're my last resort" vibe, even if that may have influenced their pairing for fans. There's just something people love about the trope of a dopey, silly guy pulling a suave sex-bomb with how genuine and funny he can be. He doesn't have to match their rizz, he just has to make them laugh, and I think Wrongie could be a refreshing relationship for DT.

Wrongie has this naiveté about him which makes him charming and cute, but he does genuinely want to be helpful and did his part to take down Horde Prime after being freed from the hive mind. I think we're also able to avoid the "born sexy yesterday" trope here because DT is not the first or only person Wrongie knows, so he does have people to compare them to, and DT is far from a generic, bland self-insert for the audience.

I think Wrongie would be an easy target for manipulation by DT at first, that maybe they'd trick him into saying something embarrassing in a meeting or pulling some pranks with them. I feel like the other SPOP characters might even warn Wrongie to steer clear of DT, but something about them draws him back in. They're just so much fun, even if it may be at his expense sometimes, and they're so clever and attractive, so it couldn't hurt to keep spending time with them, right?

DT enjoys their new toy, and he's pretty easy on the eyes, too. But he's just someone to use, nothing more, nothing serious. Ok, so his smile might be contagious, but DT is too much of a professional to fall for someone, especially someone as gullible as Wrong Hordak. He's a real peach, for sure, and they do value their friendship with him--he's made staying at Bright Moon a lot more entertaining--but that's all this is, just a platonic companionship. Definitely. 100%. ...

Wrongie gets feelings first, but he doesn't know what to make of them. He's never experienced such an emotion before. Why is his heart palpitating when he's near them? Why did a tingle run up his back when they leaned against his shoulder at the meeting? Why does he get sweaty when they hold his hand while they run away together from the scene of a prank? Why does he value the sound of their laugh more than anything in the world?

He seeks answers from the person who's taught him the most--Entrapta. Luckily, in her studies of people, she's able to find the answer he seeks. She explains attraction and romantic inclinations to him in a scientific manner, and this helps him understand better. Entrapta tells him he can make his feelings known by "flirting." Wrongie isn't sure if he can do that correctly, but he'll try!

His first attempts make him look more foolish than anything, and they don't really read as flirting. Perhaps loudly declaring that DT's jokes were, "VERY COMEDIC! DON'T YOU AGREE, BROTHERS?" at dinner wasn't the best move, nor was telling them that their scales were "SMOOTH AND GREEN, MUCH LIKE NOURISHING AMNIOTIC FLUID!" once again, loudly. Holding the door open for them worked the first time, but then when he insisted on opening EVERY door for them, including to the bathroom, they told him to go "help" someone else for awhile.

He wasn't going to give up, yet, but he needed to ask someone else for advice. His friends were all so good at loving relationships; surely they could help him! He confided in Glimmer and Bow first, who were shocked he'd fallen for DT. Glimmer tried to talk him out of it, but he wouldn't hear it. Bow actually thought it could be a good idea to give DT some entertainment that wasn't at the detriment of others. He felt that Wrongie could be a good influence on them, and that they probably were a little lonely since their bestie, Catra, had been spending more and more time with Adora and less and less time with them.

Now, if you asked DT, they wouldn't admit to being lonely. No, they were doing perfectly fine! They had themselves--the best company they could ask for--and their darling Wrongie. They didn't need that lousy Kitten--they didn't even MISS her! She wasn't paying their bills anymore, anyway, so she didn't matter to them anymore. Why are you giving them that skeptical look? They swear, darling! She's dead to them! So, why are they staring at her and Adora with jealousy? Erm, no reason. Just collecting blackmail--spy stuff, you wouldn't understand. Now scram.

Wrongie got some good advice from Bow on how to go about expressing his feelings. DT had caught onto his sad attempts at flirting, though, and decided to flirt back just to tease him. After turning his face bright red and short-circuiting his brain, Wrong Hordak blurted out that he wanted to take them on a date. DT laughed, but eventually decided, "What the heck?" and agreed.

The date went so well that DT ended up asking him on a second, and they had a mini-crisis about it. Them? Falling for someone? Impossible! But he was such a charmer, in his own way, and they hadn't ever been with someone who was so genuine. It was a refreshing change of pace, and even though they hated being wrapped around anyone's finger, they decided it may be worth the risk for Wrongie.

They started dating steadily, and though DT denied it for awhile, they became an official couple. As soon as DT stopped letting their pride get to them, they were the worst perpetrator of PDA, constantly nuzzling and hugging and pecking Wrongie every time they saw him. Wrongie was just happy to make them so happy. They worked together surprisingly well, and Wrongie did end up being a positive influence on DT and kept them out of trouble...well, out of catastrophic amounts of trouble. No one can contain their chaos.

Thank you for the ask! I really appreciate it!
